- 0:54Speaker 5: chance we get to interact with you. On this Monday morning,
- 0:57Speaker 5: heading towards Memorial Day weekend, it's always one of those
- 1:01Speaker 5: I get itchy. We used to work in a lot
- 1:04Speaker 5: of resort communities broadcasted to the Hampton's and man, they're
- 1:11Speaker 5: feeling it there. Long Island is facing this is the
- 1:14Speaker 5: most populous of all New York suburbs. And you guys
- 1:18Speaker 5: in Greenwich you're laughing, you know, because Long Island is
- 1:23Speaker 5: already a parking lot of cars and they're about to
- 1:27Speaker 5: tell three thousand more three hundred thousand more commuters to
- 1:31Speaker 5: get in the car if you have to go into
- 1:33Speaker 5: New York. Really something you should consider any time. But
- 1:38Speaker 5: we used to the Hampton's we were in Hyennas, Cape
- 1:41Speaker 5: cod Ocean City, Maryland, so we get the idea of
- 1:47Speaker 5: a resort community, and Memorial Day weekend always gives me
- 1:52Speaker 5: this sort of edgy feeling like do we have everything?
- 1:56Speaker 5: Do we have enough T shirts? Is everyone's scheduled? Does
- 1:59Speaker 5: everyone have somebody? Who are are the vans all gassed
- 2:02Speaker 5: up and clean and we vacuumed them? And you know,
- 2:06Speaker 5: we have enough discount cards or whatever prizes? You know,
- 2:09Speaker 5: who's got the who's got the cup koozies to give away?
- 2:13Speaker 5: Always that, you know, that head rush around Memorial Day weekend.
- 2:17Speaker 5: It's been years since I've had to worry about that
- 2:20Speaker 5: kind of stuff, But it's just in born in there
- 2:24Speaker 5: after you do something enough times and you just start
- 2:27Speaker 5: feeling like it's a Memorial Day weekend coming up? Do
- 2:29Speaker 5: we have you know's where's the schedule for all the people,
- 2:33Speaker 5: And who's going to be at the Hampton Beach Club
- 2:36Speaker 5: and who's going to be at summers and all these
- 2:40Speaker 5: different canoe plays in who's got who's going to the
- 2:47Speaker 5: beer distributor? And you know all that to get to
- 2:50Speaker 5: get prizes, not to give it. We never give it.
- 2:52Speaker 5: What gave away beer, please, That's that's borderline questionable, whether
- 2:58Speaker 5: it's legal or not. Anyway, So as we approach Memorial
- 3:01Speaker 5: Day weekend, so much to get into, including Bill Cassidy
- 3:06Speaker 5: and the message that he sent back to Republicans after
- 3:11Speaker 5: getting ignominiously defeated over the weekend, finishing third and the
- 3:15Speaker 5: three horse race. That's a loss, by the way, and
- 3:21Speaker 5: he delivered a message that he was going to continue
- 3:25Speaker 5: to push back on the authoritarianism that he sees coming
- 3:33Speaker 5: from the Oval Office, because he says, if you go
- 3:38Speaker 5: to office to help people, you want to continue to
- 3:42Speaker 5: help people. Also, yesterday, speaking of helping people, the Rededication
- 3:49Speaker 5: of America rally took place on the National Mall. Hundreds
- 3:54Speaker 5: of thousands of people gathered prayed, said prayers. President Trump,
- 4:00Speaker 5: in a video message said from Chronicle second Chronicles, if

- 4:14Speaker 5: their sin and heal their land. Meanwhile, in the Middle East,

- 4:35Speaker 5: Trump after a phone call with Benjamin Netanya, who said
- 4:38Speaker 5: for Iran, the clock is ticking and they better get
- 4:42Speaker 5: moving fast. China has agreed to ramp up trade for
- 4:47Speaker 5: agricultural products to seventeen billion dollars this year, mostly beef

- 5:14Speaker 5: and ten dollars per barrel for Brent crude. One of

- 14:26Speaker 5: that was Bill Cassidy's quote concession speech after finishing third
- 14:31Speaker 5: in the three horse race. His sycophants also out there saying, well,
- 14:40Speaker 5: it was the treasurer. He came in. He sapped away
- 14:44Speaker 5: our votes because we could have beat Trump's picked candidate.
- 14:48Speaker 5: You know, if it was just us. Well it's not,
- 14:53Speaker 5: and you got to run the race you're in, not
- 14:55Speaker 5: the one you wish you were in. But we'll get
- 14:57Speaker 5: into that a little bit more with you at four
- 14:59Speaker 5: three four eight four two one seven. Our dear friends
- 15:02Speaker 5: down there wgso in the big easy this morning. But
- 15:07Speaker 5: first I want to see how all this going on
- 15:09Speaker 5: with the price of oil going back up this morning
- 15:13Speaker 5: has impacted gold and silver. You can chart this for
- 15:18Speaker 5: history's sake at jcsgold dot com. James Luck is fourth
- 15:23Speaker 5: generation to the family that's been helping folks since nineteen
- 15:27Speaker 5: sixty one navigate gold, silver coins, bars, you name it.
- 15:32Speaker 5: Good morning, James, Happy Monday. How are you doing, sir,
- 15:35Speaker 5: Thanks shoe. Happy Monday to you too.
- 15:38Speaker 22: Gold and silver, you know, had a little bit of
- 15:40Speaker 22: a drop last week, they're trying to stabilize a little bit.
- 15:43Speaker 22: So far this morning, gold is even so far, four thousand,
- 15:46Speaker 22: five hundred and forty one dollars flat so far on
- 15:50Speaker 22: the morning. Silver is down just slightly, just a third
- 15:53Speaker 22: of percent to seventy five dollars and seventy five cents.
- 15:57Speaker 5: So great, buy an opportunity there in silver.
- 15:59Speaker 22: I'm sure it's to be a busy Monday as usual
- 16:02Speaker 22: with people stacking up on their soilver purchases.
- 16:05Speaker 5: Well, on the Saturday morning edition of the program, I
- 16:08Speaker 5: did my best. Everything's on sale. I equated what was
- 16:13Speaker 5: going on with the price of gold and silver to
- 16:15Speaker 5: like one of those mattress stores.
- 16:16Speaker 10: You know.
- 16:16Speaker 5: It's like off just because there was a pretty prodigious
- 16:22Speaker 5: drop in both gold and silver into Saturday morning. So
- 16:26Speaker 5: you'll probably find yourself with a lot of orders to
- 16:28Speaker 5: fill this morning. I know a thing or two about it.
- 16:32Speaker 5: But give him a call, Joe, you know, so when
- 16:36Speaker 5: you call and you can't get James because he's busy
- 16:38Speaker 5: packing boxes, you understand this is not a big corporation.
- 16:42Speaker 5: This is a family business. This guy right here is
- 16:46Speaker 5: the one that's going to send you your order if
- 16:48Speaker 5: you go to jcsgold dot com and place it there.
- 16:52Speaker 5: But you can call and check me out if you
- 16:54Speaker 5: don't believe four three four eight eight to two pardon me,
- 16:58Speaker 5: that's our phone number. Four three four nine seven nine coin.
- 17:02Speaker 3: You know.
- 17:02Speaker 5: I believe in trust, but verify so I will not
- 17:04Speaker 5: take umbrage if you call just to make sure, a
- 17:07Speaker 5: call and say, hey, this is really the Luck family
- 17:11Speaker 5: and you just you know, put me to the test.
- 17:13Speaker 5: You will find I am not going to feed you
- 17:15Speaker 5: bovine excrement at this hour of a morning. I don't
- 17:20Speaker 5: even know why I added that statement. It sounds like
- 17:22Speaker 5: later on I'm going to start feeding in bovine excrement.
- 17:26Speaker 5: We shoot straight here. Anyway, You have a great morning, James.
- 17:29Speaker 5: At jcsgold dot com is the website. You can order there.
- 17:34Speaker 5: But like I said, if you're gold curious, you know,
- 17:38Speaker 5: just give them a call and talk to them. They'll
- 17:39Speaker 5: they'll help you through the process at four three four
- 17:42Speaker 5: nine nine two six four six. Have a great morning, James,
- 17:46Speaker 5: Thanks Joy, you too, so uh yeah, I don't know.
- 17:50Speaker 5: People say that sometimes it's like we get paid by
- 17:53Speaker 5: the word. We add things to statements we don't need
- 17:56Speaker 5: to make. I'm not going to feed you bo vine
- 17:59Speaker 5: excrement this hour later. That's a different story. I mean,
- 18:02Speaker 5: I just you know, and I'm paid to do this,
- 18:06Speaker 5: and it happens to me, and I know what happens
- 18:08Speaker 5: to you as well. And if you're talking to federal
- 18:10Speaker 5: law enforcement, it can get you in a lot of trouble.
- 18:14Speaker 5: So wonderful line. I forget when lawyer was talking to
- 18:18Speaker 5: someone and who was prepping them for pending investigations, and
- 18:22Speaker 5: he said to them, he said, do you know what
- 18:24Speaker 5: time it is? And the client said it's twelve thirty
- 18:28Speaker 5: And he said, I wish you would stop doing that.
- 18:30Speaker 5: He said, if you're talking to the FBI, don't answer
- 18:34Speaker 5: more than the question. The prep of course being you know,
- 18:38Speaker 5: if an FBI agent says, do you know what time
- 18:40Speaker 5: it is? Your answer is yes I do or no
- 18:44Speaker 5: I don't. But you don't offer more information than you're
- 18:47Speaker 5: asked for. There that's your legal prep this morning. For
- 18:52Speaker 5: somebody who's had more interactions with lawyers in the last
- 18:55Speaker 5: five years than I ever did before. That so Cassidy
- 19:00Speaker 5: and his parting shot the burning bag of excrement that
- 19:03Speaker 5: he left on the porch of the Louisiana Republicans. If
- 19:08Speaker 5: someone doesn't understand that our country is not about one
- 19:11Speaker 5: individual and attempts to control others through using the levers
- 19:15Speaker 5: of power, they're about serving themselves, they're not about serving us.
- 19:21Speaker 5: And that person is not qualified to be a leader.
- 19:27Speaker 5: And here's the statement, the parting shot of somebody who
- 19:31Speaker 5: believes government is the answer. And quite honestly, that's a
- 19:37Speaker 5: guy who should finish third in a three horse race.
- 19:44Speaker 5: And I know he's had a steamed career or an
- 19:47Speaker 5: esteemed career. But here's the problem is people have grown
- 19:56Speaker 5: so used to the idea. Go back to how I
- 19:58Speaker 5: opened the program, Yes in progress. My daughter was visiting
- 20:03Speaker 5: last night and her boyfriend her they just came back
- 20:05Speaker 5: from Serbia, where her boyfriend's family is and grandmother and
- 20:11Speaker 5: and they were talking about his grandfather was rude the
- 20:16Speaker 5: fall of Tito. I'm thinking, oh my gosh. You know,
- 20:20Speaker 5: here in the West we think of those things as
- 20:21Speaker 5: great liberating moments. Here's this guy saying, yeah, thing's really
- 20:26Speaker 5: got screwed up. When Tito left because we are first
- 20:31Speaker 5: and foremost adaptable creatures. It's one of the reasons where
- 20:35Speaker 5: the apex predator. It's not because we're faster, stronger, I
- 20:38Speaker 5: have longer claws or fangs. It's because we're adaptable and
- 20:42Speaker 5: we can think of tactic and things like that. So
- 20:47Speaker 5: if you're if you're living someplace, you figure out what
- 20:49Speaker 5: the system is and you figure out your way to
- 20:51Speaker 5: live within that system or circumvented in some way, shape
- 20:55Speaker 5: or form. So many of the folks who you know
- 21:01Speaker 5: aren't listening this morning in Iran because the Internet is
- 21:05Speaker 5: still shut down except for everyone but the hackers. But
- 21:09Speaker 5: we've developed a generation that's grown up in the Great
- 21:12Speaker 5: Society thinking the government is the answer to all of
- 21:16Speaker 5: our problems, and I don't. It's a long slog to
- 21:22Speaker 5: get back out of that, because there are really people
- 21:28Speaker 5: who are really poor and really have a tough time
- 21:31Speaker 5: for paying their electric bills and finding a car that
- 21:35Speaker 5: they can get to and from work in. And so
- 21:41Speaker 5: it's easy to say, Hey, I was watching TV and
- 21:44Speaker 5: there was some rich guy, why don't we go get
- 21:45Speaker 5: his money? Or I work for somebody, and he's a
- 21:52Speaker 5: soob that's always asking me to work extra time for him.
- 21:57Speaker 5: He's got money, why don't we go get some of
- 21:58Speaker 5: his money? Easy? Hey, I Brandt And her name is Shary.
- 22:03Speaker 10: I love.
- 22:04Speaker 23: She's a friend of mine whom we were just praying
- 22:07Speaker 23: for because of a surgery. She just went through.
- 22:09Speaker 24: Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
- 22:12Speaker 24: talk about all the time, which is meta share.
- 22:14Speaker 6: That is right.
- 22:14Speaker 23: Yeah, So what was your experience like with meta share
- 22:17Speaker 23: and healthcare ability?
- 22:18Speaker 24: Honestly, Brandt seamless and what a blessing that is. When
- 22:21Speaker 24: you're already nervous about a health issue which I was.
- 22:24Speaker 24: Members shared my expenses. There were zero problems. And let
- 22:27Speaker 24: me tell you, having people pray with you when you
- 22:31Speaker 24: call in with your need that is just refreshing.
- 22:34Speaker 12: Yes, that's what it is.
- 22:35Speaker 23: What I keep telling people. People love meta share and
- 22:38Speaker 23: they love saving money. The typical family can save five
- 22:41Speaker 23: hundred dollars a month.
- 22:42Speaker 24: I am very thankful for meta share. It is so different,
- 22:46Speaker 24: and I mean different in a very very good way.

- 23:06Speaker 7: Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and now it's helping veterinarians deliver
- 23:11Speaker 7: better care for pets. From AI assisted radiographs that speed
- 23:16Speaker 7: up diagnoses to tools that help spot diseases, AI supports
- 23:20Speaker 7: veterinary teams in exciting ways. We're using AI to develop
- 23:25Speaker 7: personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline kidney disease,
- 23:31Speaker 7: and even streamline record keeping so veterinarians can focus more
- 23:35Speaker 7: on patients. But, as with any new technology, always keep
- 23:40Speaker 7: a human in the loop to maintain the best pet healthcare.
- 23:44Speaker 7: AI is a powerful tool, but not a replacement for
- 23:48Speaker 7: your veterinarians expertise, compassion and judgment, which remains at the
- 23:53Speaker 7: center of our profession. For more information on AI and

- 28:57Speaker 5: Try it anyway, That's what we do deep thought in
- 29:00Speaker 5: the morning, and remember the answer is always forty two
- 29:04Speaker 5: four three four eight eight two four two one seven
- 29:07Speaker 5: will suffice in the interim though emails come into JT
- 29:14Speaker 5: in the morning. Radio at gmail dot com show off hands.
- 29:17Speaker 5: Anyone have this problem. So you know that we use
- 29:21Speaker 5: a Gmail account for emails, and apparently Google is not
- 29:27Speaker 5: happy with me because I don't have Chrome loaded onto
- 29:32Speaker 5: my computer, mostly because I was an idiot and I
- 29:36Speaker 5: clicked something and it took over my Chrome account and
- 29:41Speaker 5: I immediately removed Chrome from my computer. This was going
- 29:46Speaker 5: on four years ago, and now I can't clean out
- 29:50Speaker 5: my Gmail account because they're claiming that I don't I
- 29:54Speaker 5: need to have Google loaded onto my computer. I'm like,
- 29:57Speaker 5: all right, then make sure the Google that I download
- 30:00Speaker 5: from your app store isn't still corrupted by the hack.
- 30:05Speaker 5: And they're like, oh, we can't help you with that.
- 30:08Speaker 5: So I'm working on a way to clean up my
- 30:11Speaker 5: Gmail account without downloading Chrome onto my computer. Yes, mine
- 30:15Speaker 5: is the only computer that doesn't have Chrome on it.
- 30:18Speaker 5: I'm wondering if Duck Duck go, the duck Duck Go
- 30:21Speaker 5: has their own browser. Now, I wonder if that'll do
- 30:24Speaker 5: the trick for me there Anyway, I'm not here to
- 30:27Speaker 5: ask for tech support. I know the answer is usually
- 30:30Speaker 5: did you try unplugging and plugging back in the computer?
- 30:34Speaker 5: Doctor Clark is on the line with us though, at
- 30:36Speaker 5: four three four eight eight two four two one seven.
- 30:39Speaker 5: Good morning Clark, what's triggered you already? This morning?
- 30:43Speaker 28: We see great things on Cassidy and then on to
- 30:46Speaker 28: more important things that happen after a Memorial Day number one,
- 30:52Speaker 28: it got referred to as the horses race. You know,
- 30:54Speaker 28: it occurred to me, Joe, what's the very last thing
- 30:56Speaker 28: cross the finished line and a horse's race? Hors Yeah,
- 31:02Speaker 28: that's what happened here. So let's see. Everybody likes little mottos. Yeah,
- 31:10Speaker 28: I'm thinking the motto for this, I'll be sixth and
- 31:13Speaker 28: for rhin.
- 31:13Speaker 5: Itis as in that because there isn't there a thing
- 31:20Speaker 5: that you know you have a problem with. This is
- 31:22Speaker 5: like rhino No, rhinoplasty is something else you.
- 31:26Speaker 28: Do rhinovirus causes rhinitis, which is a Ronny snotty nose.
- 31:31Speaker 28: So little play on rhino and what I think mister Cassidy,
- 31:36Speaker 28: Now you said earlier, where was he wrong about January sixth?
- 31:41Speaker 28: I'm going to disagree with you, Joe, Okay. The only
- 31:45Speaker 28: thing he was wrong about Mike Pitts was wrong about Nancy,
- 31:49Speaker 28: Chucky and all the other complicits was they thought there
- 31:54Speaker 28: could never be any accountability.
- 31:57Speaker 5: I see what you're saying.
- 32:00Speaker 28: That's what they thought. And hey, I'm not saying there
- 32:03Speaker 28: will be, but there could some people.
- 32:07Speaker 5: Yeah, anyway, some low level functionary is going to see
- 32:11Speaker 5: the inside of, you know, a country club in Connecticut
- 32:14Speaker 5: somewhere hopefully.
- 32:16Speaker 28: So, Now what happens after Memorial Day?
- 32:20Speaker 8: Joe, I'm all pumped?
- 32:21Speaker 5: Are you all pumped? I'm always pumped, but I'm trying
- 32:24Speaker 5: to figure out why you're specifically pumped.
- 32:28Speaker 28: Pride but.
- 32:32Speaker 5: Charlie. Yes, we celebrate Charlie Pride all month. Yes, Yes,
- 32:38Speaker 5: I'm all excited. I'm thinking, Joe.
- 32:42Speaker 28: You know, Jim the Candyman Ryanhart on WHGW, the country
- 32:47Speaker 28: Giant of Southwest Florida, used to have a deal called
- 32:50Speaker 28: Coffee break, and.
- 32:55Speaker 10: I don't know.
- 32:55Speaker 28: I think it was around nine o'clock in the morning.
- 32:58Speaker 28: He would feature an artist just kind of like bio
- 33:01Speaker 28: and whatnot. You could coffee break Charlie Pride here and
- 33:06Speaker 28: there throughout Pride Month.
- 33:09Speaker 5: Little Charlie Pride nuggets.
- 33:13Speaker 28: Well, you know, I do know that he played minor
- 33:15Speaker 28: league baseball and they're always strapped for cash. Somebody found
- 33:20Speaker 28: out that Charlie could sing, and they're like, hey, man,
- 33:25Speaker 28: would you sing the national anthem so we don't have
- 33:28Speaker 28: to hire somebody to do it. And somebody heard him
- 33:32Speaker 28: sing the national anthem is like, man, that guy can sing.
- 33:36Speaker 28: And that's how he ended up being Charlie Pride.
- 33:39Speaker 5: There you go. Then, before you know it could have
- 33:41Speaker 5: could have wound up being a you know, the the
- 33:43Speaker 5: next guy to play first base for the Yankees. There
- 33:47Speaker 5: you go, good stuff. There you go, you're Charlie Pride Month.
- 33:51Speaker 5: Nugget of information. We don't know if there's any more
- 33:53Speaker 5: about Charlie Pride we need to know, but we will.
- 33:57Speaker 5: We will be celebrating Pride Month, Yes we will. Yay anyway,
- 34:04Speaker 5: good stuff. Doctor Clark sixe for right, not as Joe.
- 34:09Speaker 5: That's a runny snotty nose. Uh there you go four
- 34:13Speaker 5: three four eight eight two four two one seven. That
- 34:16Speaker 5: is our phone number and text messages as well coming
- 34:21Speaker 5: in to their And I don't want to be labored
- 34:24Speaker 5: because there's a lot of stuff. So in the weekend's
- 34:28Speaker 5: worth of stories out of China fascinates me because everyone's like, oh,
- 34:37Speaker 5: Trump came back empty handed, failure, failure, failure, face, resting
- 34:42Speaker 5: failure face blah blah blah blah blah, seventeen billion dollar
- 34:48Speaker 5: farm products deal opening up their marketplace to ag. I
- 34:56Speaker 5: thought I thought Trump hated farmers. I thought, you know,
- 34:58Speaker 5: farmers were going to turn on Trump. Maybe he knew
- 35:04Speaker 5: what he was doing after all, when he told China
- 35:07Speaker 5: you better start doing better job with our ag industry.
- 35:13Speaker 5: And we're even talking about the grumming airplanes and then
- 35:25Speaker 5: the rare earth minerals. They're going to open up the
- 35:27Speaker 5: rare earth minerals supply chain, which again, this is what
- 35:33Speaker 5: a totalitarian regime does, is that it has resource and
- 35:37Speaker 5: it restricts it rather than just putting it on the marketplace.
- 35:51Speaker 5: And for where are all the people who spent the
- 35:54Speaker 5: latter part of last week talking about how what a loser.
- 35:57Speaker 5: Trump was, you know, he came back from China empty handed,
- 36:00Speaker 5: quote unquote, so one story called him an airplane salesman.
- 36:11Speaker 27: It's just.
- 36:16Speaker 5: I get it, I understand it, you know, but think
- 36:19Speaker 5: about how we have been dragged into this place where
- 36:22Speaker 5: you and me are being pushed into corners where we
- 36:31Speaker 5: can't even recognize things that are being done right or
- 36:36Speaker 5: wrong because of political party, because a political party needs
- 36:41Speaker 5: to win the next thing. Political party needs to to
- 36:47Speaker 5: you know, control the vote. It's sad in a lot
- 36:56Speaker 5: of ways. You know, when you and I get together
- 36:58Speaker 5: in the morning, I don't want to spend all this
- 37:00Speaker 5: time talking about political party or which political party. Unfortunately,
- 37:06Speaker 5: only one seems to be interested in even talking about
- 37:12Speaker 5: American rights and citizens and protecting their rights. And they're
- 37:21Speaker 5: not perfect at it either. So I'm not going to
- 37:23Speaker 5: sit here and lose friends over I'll debate any issue
- 37:30Speaker 5: you want. But Cassidy is an exemplar of this is
- 37:42Speaker 5: unfortunately the creature that has kept conservative constitutionalist principles from
- 37:48Speaker 5: winning the day, even though seventy five percent of Americans
- 37:51Speaker 5: agree with them, because these folks who are in office
- 37:55Speaker 5: want to stay in office because well, that's where other
- 37:58Speaker 5: people's money.
- 37:59Speaker 23: Is life can change so abruptly.
- 38:04Speaker 5: Just ask Paul. He's a hard.
- 38:06Speaker 23: Working entrepreneur, he's young, he's got a young family. Suddenly, though,
- 38:09Speaker 23: he develops a rare medical condition where he lost the
- 38:12Speaker 23: use of both of his arms.
- 38:14Speaker 26: I could no longer drive a car, couldn't use a computer, type,
- 38:17Speaker 26: couldn't use a mouse. I could not hold my son,
- 38:19Speaker 26: who was about a month old.
- 38:20Speaker 23: Paul and his family were facing a mountain of medical bills,
- 38:23Speaker 23: but they're so thankful that they're members of meta Share.
- 38:27Speaker 26: I think if someone asked me, like, hey, does men
- 38:29Speaker 26: share really were I'm living proof that it works. My
- 38:33Speaker 26: four children are living proof that it works. My arms,
- 38:36Speaker 26: which have been healed, are living proof that menashare works.
- 38:40Speaker 26: Just knowing the emotional peace of mind, knowing that our
- 38:42Speaker 26: needs are going to be taken care of when we
- 38:44Speaker 26: have some type of medical problem that is such a
- 38:46Speaker 26: huge blessing to us.
- 38:47Speaker 23: It could be a huge blessing to you to people
- 38:50Speaker 23: save so much and love being part of meta Share.
- 38:53Speaker 23: Call now eight five five share forty. That's eight five
- 38:56Speaker 23: five share four zero eight five five share forty.
- 39:04Speaker 13: Considered by most optimized Curcumin is one of the few
- 39:08Speaker 13: bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. I
- 39:13Speaker 13: am doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
- 39:19Speaker 13: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
- 39:23Speaker 13: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
- 39:27Speaker 13: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
- 39:32Speaker 13: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
- 39:37Speaker 13: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
- 39:42Speaker 13: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
- 39:46Speaker 13: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our
- 39:51Speaker 13: healthy cells even from radiation. Totalwellness dot com where we

- 40:59Speaker 20: Hiybody, Jack, Hannah and it's always a boy. Growing up
- 41:02Speaker 20: on a farm in Tennessee, I've been fascinated with animals.
- 41:05Speaker 20: I'm not only in awe of their beauty and kindness,
- 41:07Speaker 20: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
- 41:09Speaker 20: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
- 41:13Speaker 20: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
- 41:15Speaker 20: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
- 41:18Speaker 20: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
- 41:21Speaker 20: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
- 41:23Speaker 20: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
- 41:26Speaker 20: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
- 41:30Speaker 20: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
- 41:33Speaker 20: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
- 41:36Speaker 20: at airports. They comfort returning veterans. Some of whom suffer
- 41:38Speaker 20: from PTSS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
- 41:42Speaker 20: a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a
- 41:44Speaker 20: variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society and

- 44:12Speaker 5: From the home of the first Amendment. First thing today,
- 44:25Speaker 5: Sorry target audience everyonecause you know in a world there's
- 44:39Speaker 5: a coming into the break, Sure I get cassidy saying
- 44:42Speaker 5: you know, the government is supposed to help people. No
- 44:44Speaker 5: it's not.
- 44:45Speaker 6: No, it's not.
- 44:46Speaker 5: It's supposed to protect our rights. And it becomes the
- 44:55Speaker 5: self consuming ice cream cone when you start down this path.
- 45:00Speaker 5: And this was why we left the gold standard. We
- 45:03Speaker 5: left the gold standard because at that point there was
- 45:06Speaker 5: a choice, was it seventy one seventy two? The choice
- 45:11Speaker 5: was start culling all of the Great Society programs that
- 45:16Speaker 5: had only been in existence for half a dozen years,
- 45:21Speaker 5: but they were already about to bankrupt the country if
- 45:26Speaker 5: we were going to continue to insist that we have
- 45:31Speaker 5: physical gold to back up the paper currency where we
- 45:35Speaker 5: were printing. And so the decision, the choice was do
- 45:41Speaker 5: you cut programs or come up with some way to
- 45:49Speaker 5: make more money and literally I mean make more money.
- 45:53Speaker 5: And they decided to go that full faith and credit
- 45:56Speaker 5: of the US government route. Start selling bonds to equal dollars.
- 46:07Speaker 5: That's how we do it. We have promissory notes. Largest
- 46:12Speaker 5: holder of US sovereign debt is the US Social Security Administration,
- 46:18Speaker 5: just saying China is the largest international governmental holder of
- 46:28Speaker 5: sovereign US debt. I think it's six percent something along
- 46:34Speaker 5: those lines. And if you look at it this way,
- 46:45Speaker 5: if a corporation operated the way the US government operates,
- 46:51Speaker 5: the CEO would already be in prison, the shareholders would
- 46:57Speaker 5: already be lining up for law suits. We have people
- 47:03Speaker 5: who are suing their companies because they made too much
- 47:08Speaker 5: money and they didn't invest more into the poverty issues
- 47:14Speaker 5: and the DEI stuff.
- 47:19Speaker 10: So this.
- 47:22Speaker 5: Affliction we have that government has to be used as
- 47:25Speaker 5: the answer to our problems. It was fun when Ronald
- 47:32Speaker 5: Reagan said it decades and decades ago. But government creates
- 47:36Speaker 5: the problems. And especially if things start to calm down
- 47:41Speaker 5: and you're in the business of solving people's problems, what
- 47:45Speaker 5: do you think you do? You start creating new problems.
- 47:51Speaker 5: And once you've conceded the moral high ground of being
- 47:56Speaker 5: able to say I give you rights, of course, that's
- 48:02Speaker 5: a compelling thing to tell people I will give you
- 48:05Speaker 5: the right to and they parse. John Locke, the founding
- 48:10Speaker 5: father of the Founding Fathers, who says that to ensure
- 48:15Speaker 5: these rights, governments are created, deriving their just powers from
- 48:21Speaker 5: the governed. So the Marxists, the leftists, the government is
- 48:28Speaker 5: the answer. Crowd says, we can give you the right
- 48:31Speaker 5: to housing because we determine what we're going to protect
- 48:35Speaker 5: and what we're not. We're going to give you the
- 48:39Speaker 5: right to more money in your pocket, even if it's
- 48:41Speaker 5: worth nothing, because we have the authority to protect that right.
- 48:47Speaker 5: First we'll invent it, and then we'll protect it. These
- 48:53Speaker 5: were many of the things that Hugo Chavez was doing
- 48:58Speaker 5: in Venezuela before Madu took over. I'll promise you more money,
- 49:04Speaker 5: and I'll promise your stuff you buy goes down in price,
- 49:08Speaker 5: and you're like, oh, this is magic. Go back to
- 49:11Speaker 5: what I said at the onset of the program. Uh,
- 49:14Speaker 5: this kid's grandfather told them the stories of the good
- 49:18Speaker 5: old days when Marshall Tito was running Yugoslavia. Because we
- 49:23Speaker 5: figure out how to live in that system and when
- 49:26Speaker 5: the system gets rent asunder. The same thing happened in
- 49:32Speaker 5: Moscow and across the old Soviet Union when that government fell.
- 49:41Speaker 5: All these guys who are the older Garks now under
- 49:44Speaker 5: putin became that. In the tumult that came afterwards, they
- 49:49Speaker 5: were I mean, it's just wild, wild West kind of stuff.
- 49:55Speaker 5: Same in Ukraine. Once Russia was gone, there was no
- 49:59Speaker 5: real government to do anything. I mean, you think about
- 50:03Speaker 5: the legend of King Arthur, I think I think the
- 50:08Speaker 5: one that's most likely is that he was a Roman appointed,
- 50:14Speaker 5: you know, governor of some place in Britain. Romans had said,
- 50:19Speaker 5: you're in charge.
- 50:20Speaker 9: You're you.
- 50:20Speaker 5: We shall now refer to you as you know, Flavius Maximus,
- 50:24Speaker 5: and you'll be the governor of this region. And then
- 50:27Speaker 5: Rome laughed, and the invading hordes were bearing down, and
- 50:34Speaker 5: he rallied some other duchies to all send troops and
- 50:38Speaker 5: battled back the Saxons. That's that's what happens when the
- 50:47Speaker 5: vacuum comes. You know, who's who's going to unite everyone
- 50:51Speaker 5: in the chaos because chaos is considered by human history
- 50:58Speaker 5: to be a bad thing. The authoritarians use chaos as
- 51:03Speaker 5: the premise for why they need to be the authoritarians.
- 51:11Speaker 5: And the issues regarding your liberty. Sure, are you having
- 51:20Speaker 5: trouble paying your bills? Do you have a right to
- 51:22Speaker 5: more money in your pocket? And who does that? So
- 51:25Speaker 5: I mentioned they were misunderstanding John Locke, the founding father
- 51:28Speaker 5: of the Founding Fathers. His point was, and this is
- 51:33Speaker 5: what they forget. You cannot have the right to something
- 51:42Speaker 5: that somebody else has to do. Even as far back
- 51:48Speaker 5: as the Enlightenment, they understood that conferring a right is
- 51:55Speaker 5: limited to things that only you can do for yourself.
- 52:02Speaker 5: You can't say I have a right to healthcare because well,
- 52:08Speaker 5: number one, you already do through the hippocratic oaths that
- 52:11Speaker 5: the doctors take. You already do because of access to
- 52:17Speaker 5: emergency rooms. But beyond that, you claiming that I have
- 52:25Speaker 5: the right to force a doctor and a nurse and
- 52:28Speaker 5: a dietitian or an office manager to work for me.
- 52:33Speaker 5: That's not something that's Western or civil even never mind
- 52:39Speaker 5: Western civilization. Four three, four, eight eight, two four two

- 52:55Speaker 27: turned into something very major in a matter of hours.

- 53:00Speaker 3: no hassles, there was no problem.
