- 0:11Speaker 1: Because I don't mind being the shelf that I didn't
- 0:13Speaker 1: exelt it from.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Many those guys.

- 0:20Speaker 4: George said, steal me stem have a day at least
- 0:25Speaker 4: for work.
- 0:26Speaker 5: When the sun comes up, drops a pet to scoop
- 0:28Speaker 5: the knights.
- 0:29Speaker 6: Like after all these years, all the treasure seven needs no.
- 0:36Speaker 7: One that Joe's allies smiled.
- 0:38Speaker 5: He only exp.
- 0:43Speaker 7: Joe, it was that red light meeting.
- 0:46Speaker 6: I want to be Yo means it's time to begin,
- 0:50Speaker 6: said the great radio consultant Ozzy Osbourne. Four three four
- 0:55Speaker 6: eight eight two four two one seven. That is the
- 0:58Speaker 6: phone number and or text message hotline, whichever is more
- 1:01Speaker 6: convenient for you to tell us how the news of
- 1:04Speaker 6: the day is impacting you where you are. If you're
- 1:07Speaker 6: just waking up, you don't know what that news is.
- 1:10Speaker 6: Sit tight. We'll get to you in a second and
- 1:13Speaker 6: tell you everything, and then you can join in the fray.
- 1:16Speaker 6: This email came in after the lagment. We were talking
- 1:19Speaker 6: about this bill signed into law by Governor DeSantis in Florida,
- 1:23Speaker 6: giving he and a couple of other people in his
- 1:26Speaker 6: executive branch the authority to declare groups terrorist groups and
- 1:31Speaker 6: then start punishing students at state universities for supporting of them.
- 1:37Speaker 6: And I said, be careful with stuff like this because
- 1:40Speaker 6: somebody like W. Wasserman Schultz may wind up getting elected
- 1:44Speaker 6: governors someday, as unlikely as that may seem, Eugene writes
- 1:50Speaker 6: into JT in the Morning Radio at gmail dot com.
- 1:54Speaker 6: I know it's wordy, but it's starting to catch on
- 1:56Speaker 6: JT in the Morning Radio at email dot com. He writes, Joe,
- 2:03Speaker 6: I get what you're saying about not allowing laws like
- 2:06Speaker 6: this to be used by the Democrats who would target conservatives.
- 2:10Speaker 6: So simple answer, space space, spacel page, don't let democrats
- 2:17Speaker 6: win anymore. Well, you know, gosh, if we only had
- 2:22Speaker 6: thought of that here in Virginia. I will tell you
- 2:24Speaker 6: about what buyers remorse looks like in pulling data in
- 2:30Speaker 6: just a little bit when we finish up telling everyone
- 2:33Speaker 6: what's been going on in and around the world this morning.
- 2:37Speaker 6: But lots just don't let them win. Well, gosh, why
- 2:43Speaker 6: didn't we think of that? Eugena. I really appreciate the
- 2:46Speaker 6: clarity of that, But he's right. We need to do
- 2:51Speaker 6: a better job of just not saying, well, it's just
- 2:54Speaker 6: you know, it's just cyclical. And you know it's because
- 2:57Speaker 6: these are not your parent democrats. I'm sorry, they're just not.
- 3:04Speaker 8: So.
- 3:05Speaker 6: Our first things this morning begin in space, where the
- 3:11Speaker 6: Artemis two astronauts have done something no other human being
- 3:14Speaker 6: has gone far as far before. They've gone further in
- 3:21Speaker 6: space than any other human being have in the past.
- 3:24Speaker 6: They broke a record by Jim Lovell, Pollo thirteen commander.
- 3:30Speaker 6: No he doesn't look like Tom Hanks, but he made
- 3:33Speaker 6: a really poignant speech at Tom Hanks af AFA Awards ceremony.
- 3:41Speaker 6: But Jim Lovell, who passed away last year, recorded a
- 3:44Speaker 6: message for the Artemis two astronauts, Welcome to my old neighborhood.
- 3:49Speaker 6: They did manage to take some pictures of the far
- 3:52Speaker 6: side of the moon, and as Pink Floyd predicted in
- 3:55Speaker 6: their song of the same name, it's all dark. On Monday,
- 4:00Speaker 6: rejected the forty five day ceasefire proposal back channel to
- 4:04Speaker 6: them through Pakistan state run Na news agency said they
- 4:10Speaker 6: had just hired Wolf Blitzer. No, that's not what they said.
- 4:14Speaker 6: They said that Tehran conveyed its response through mediators in Pakistan.
- 4:19Speaker 6: We will only accept an end of the war with
- 4:22Speaker 6: guarantees that we won't be attacked again. Meanwhile, the president
- 4:27Speaker 6: of Iran has announced that he claims fourteen million Iranians
- 4:32Speaker 6: will form human chains around electric generating facilities and across
- 4:37Speaker 6: bridges under President Trump's threat to bomb those if the
- 4:43Speaker 6: war doesn't end in the next forty eight hours. President
- 4:48Speaker 6: Trump was asked if those constituted war crimes, which has
- 4:52Speaker 6: been brought up by several of his opponents, and he
- 4:54Speaker 6: said to a press conference yesterday that they were quote wrong.
- 4:58Speaker 6: They say war crimes, it's not. He also said that
- 5:03Speaker 6: in response to a question would you take the oil,
- 5:06Speaker 6: he said, Americans want to see us come home. I
- 5:13Speaker 6: could take the oil, but Americans want to see us
- 5:15Speaker 6: come home. UN Security Council was going to take a
- 5:21Speaker 6: vote on authorizing military operations to open the Strait of
- 5:25Speaker 6: Horror moves, but China vetoed that and now they have
- 5:29Speaker 6: a watered down resolution, a sternly worded letter asking Iran
- 5:33Speaker 6: to please open the Strait of hor moves, and Ron
- 5:39Speaker 6: DeSantis signed a law to measure giving his administration the
- 5:43Speaker 6: authority to declare terrorist organizations and punish students at universities
- 5:51Speaker 6: that participated in those organizations. And as we finish our
- 5:57Speaker 6: First Things, Michigan is the men's basket ball national champion,
- 6:06Speaker 6: not entirely unlike mel Brooks in History of the World
- 6:09Speaker 6: Part One. We're going to get to play Caesar's Palace
- 6:12Speaker 6: on July eighth, and they love a mountain comic there.
- 6:16Speaker 6: In this case it's the Blu Rage Mountains. As we

- 9:02Speaker 12: You were strolling along in Goodwill when just past that
- 9:05Speaker 12: mid century side table and denim jacket, you spotted them
- 9:08Speaker 12: nestled in their display case. Miniature donut earrings. Oh yes, yes,
- 9:16Speaker 12: your favorite half breakfast pastry, half all day dessert food

- 9:57Speaker 14: Exercise is hard, so is maintained a healthy diet. Of course,
- 10:03Speaker 14: neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type two diabetes,
- 10:08Speaker 14: heart disease, and stroke kill nearly a million people a year.
- 10:12Speaker 14: Even sadder, most of these deaths are preventable with a
- 10:15Speaker 14: few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.
- 10:21Speaker 14: Talk to your doctor about your risk for type two
- 10:24Speaker 14: diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
- 10:27Speaker 14: changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is
- 10:32Speaker 14: because not enough are willing to change. You can stop it,
- 10:36Speaker 14: starting right now. It's your life. Listen to your doctor,

- 11:55Speaker 19: first date?
- 11:56Speaker 7: Sure?
- 11:56Speaker 5: We'll probably stay together.

- 12:26Speaker 2: Ready to go?
- 12:27Speaker 8: Hey?
- 12:27Speaker 7: Are you sure you're okay to drive?
- 12:29Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 12:30Speaker 7: I'm pretty sober.
- 12:32Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm probably okay.
- 12:35Speaker 18: Probably, okay isn't okay, especially when it comes to drinking
- 12:39Speaker 18: and driving. If you're drinking, call a cab, a car,
- 12:42Speaker 18: or a friend. Buzz driving is drunk driving. A message

- 13:11Speaker 3: Hundred to do list. Putting the radio on is the
- 13:14Speaker 3: first thing today.
- 13:16Speaker 10: I Abigail Davis Spamberger, do solemnly.
- 13:19Speaker 20: Swear, I Abigail Davis Spanberger, do solemnly swear.
- 13:33Speaker 6: You know, from now on, when Democrats get sworn into something,
- 13:36Speaker 6: I want to see both hands on the Bible. I
- 13:42Speaker 6: want to make sure there ain't no crossed fingers going
- 13:45Speaker 6: on here. So Buyer's remorse in political sense generally takes
- 13:52Speaker 6: a while to manifest why we were just playing Billy
- 13:55Speaker 6: Bush's confessional at Father Hannity's podcast Forgive Me, Forgive Me
- 14:02Speaker 6: talk show hosts for I have sinned, coming clean on
- 14:06Speaker 6: the video that started Trump derangement syndrome all those years ago. Thanks,
- 14:14Speaker 6: But in Virginia we try to do things faster, quickly,
- 14:18Speaker 6: at a breakneck pace, becoming the land of fruits and
- 14:21Speaker 6: nuts that California used to be. And in Virginia's case,
- 14:26Speaker 6: it's salted peanuts. And we're famous for our salted peanuts
- 14:31Speaker 6: and our peaches, so we can't and our wine grapes, yes,
- 14:37Speaker 6: and our wine grapes, so we could very easily be
- 14:40Speaker 6: the land of fruits and nuts if California wants to
- 14:44Speaker 6: abandon that title. But my favorite analogous relationship is that
- 14:53Speaker 6: there is an invasive species of catfish. And if you
- 14:58Speaker 6: don't know what catfish means in the parlance of somebody
- 15:01Speaker 6: who isn't what they purported to be, google it. Kids,
- 15:11Speaker 6: don't ask your mom, don't say mom, the guy in
- 15:13Speaker 6: the radio was talking about getting catfished? What does that mean?
- 15:16Speaker 6: Oh man, I don't need those cards and letters. But
- 15:22Speaker 6: there is actually a breed of catfish called the Virginia
- 15:25Speaker 6: blue catfish. It's apparently not native to Virginia, but it's
- 15:29Speaker 6: called the Virginia blue catfish. I'm not kidding, I'm not
- 15:34Speaker 6: making this up. I feel like Dave Barry when I
- 15:37Speaker 6: say this, all right, Google Dave Barry too if you need,
- 15:43Speaker 6: oh my gosh, should get Google ad points for all this.
- 15:51Speaker 6: There is actually a breed of catfish called the Virginia
- 15:54Speaker 6: blue catfish, and it lives in the James River, which
- 15:58Speaker 6: comes out right there in Richmond, past the Virginia Capitol.
- 16:05Speaker 6: And I think it's time that the Virginia Democratic Party
- 16:09Speaker 6: embrace its new logo. The stubborn, hardworking donkey is no
- 16:15Speaker 6: longer indicative of the American Democrat. I think a wonderful
- 16:21Speaker 6: hey chat GTP, can you draw me a cartoon of
- 16:25Speaker 6: a blue catfish?
- 16:27Speaker 17: All right?
- 16:27Speaker 6: Well it works on that. Oh my goodness, that that
- 16:34Speaker 6: looks like Abigail Spanburger, right with the with the nose
- 16:38Speaker 6: and the hair. And you notice all the cartoons of
- 16:40Speaker 6: Abigail Spanburger. She looks like some sort of bird of
- 16:44Speaker 6: prey about to land on you. It's just the the tease,
- 16:48Speaker 6: you know, the the winged hairstyle and the nose and
- 16:52Speaker 6: coming down like Jean look picard and drag. But the
- 16:59Speaker 6: wash Post and the shar School Political Discourse at the
- 17:05Speaker 6: James George Mason University issued a poll that shows that already,
- 17:11Speaker 6: despite having won by fifteen percentage points with almost a
- 17:23Speaker 6: sixty percent support. On election day, six weeks into her
- 17:30Speaker 6: term as governor, Abigail Spanberger had already begun to hemorrhage support.
- 17:40Speaker 6: Now here we are after five short months. She is
- 17:48Speaker 6: down to forty six percent of Virginians in any way,
- 17:53Speaker 6: shape or form, and much of it is not very
- 17:56Speaker 6: heavily support her administration as governor of virgin Now this
- 18:05Speaker 6: is despite being one of Barack Obama's chosen few. And
- 18:09Speaker 6: if there's anything we know about Barack Obama, he forgets
- 18:12Speaker 6: that stuff pretty quickly. Barack Obama has very short attention
- 18:18Speaker 6: span politically, and if you and if you come a
- 18:21Speaker 6: part of the seams that thoroughly that quickly he will
- 18:26Speaker 6: abandon you like yesterday's Chicago Bulls Jersey for the next
- 18:35Speaker 6: shiny Democrat that comes along that looks like it might
- 18:38Speaker 6: be able to rekindle his legacy. Meanwhile, she signed a
- 18:48Speaker 6: bunch of bills yesterday that gives taxpayer money to big
- 18:51Speaker 6: corporations like Astrozeneka and Eli Lilly so that they can
- 18:56Speaker 6: build factories in Virginia or or not pull out of
- 19:00Speaker 6: building factories in Virginia, which they promised to do under
- 19:03Speaker 6: the Glen Youngkin administration. Both pharmaceutical giants had promised six
- 19:09Speaker 6: months to a year ago more even to build and
- 19:14Speaker 6: expand factories and operations in Virginia and Guchilin County, which
- 19:18Speaker 6: is just outside of Richmond, and in Charlottesville, Virginia. So
- 19:24Speaker 6: in an effort to convince them to not change their mind,
- 19:27Speaker 6: she threw billions of dollars around yesterday and in pork
- 19:33Speaker 6: to try to keep these major manufacturers going because you know,
- 19:37Speaker 6: Eli Lilly needs billions of Virginia taxpayer dollars. And in
- 19:45Speaker 6: amongst all of this comes the news Dominion Energy. Our
- 19:50Speaker 6: big electric utility did exactly what every electric utility does,
- 19:55Speaker 6: and we predicted it here. Bonnard Cohen told us. Steve
- 19:59Speaker 6: Hayner told us that if you join Reggie the regional
- 20:05Speaker 6: greenhouse gas emissions.
- 20:09Speaker 21: Your.
- 20:11Speaker 6: Electric bills are going to go up. Guess what. Dominions
- 20:15Speaker 6: announced yesterday that they've asked the overseeing body, the State
- 20:20Speaker 6: Corporation Commission here in Virginia, for permission to pass the
- 20:25Speaker 6: costs along to the rate payers. Why did Abigail span
- 20:30Speaker 6: Burger's honeymoon last so little? Because she ran on making
- 20:34Speaker 6: things affordable and without really any Republicans out there saying
- 20:39Speaker 6: she's not. I mean, President Trump is constantly inundated with
- 20:44Speaker 6: a one hundred to two hundred Democrats on TV and
- 20:48Speaker 6: radio saying, hey, promise to make things more afordable. Now
- 20:51Speaker 6: gases you just hurt Joel. Joel said, gas is for
- 20:55Speaker 6: something mcgallan in Arizona, five dollars account Arizona. It's pushing
- 21:01Speaker 6: four point fifteen four twenty here in Virginia. And it
- 21:04Speaker 6: shouldn't be, by the way, because the gasoline that we're
- 21:08Speaker 6: refining here in the United States doesn't go through the
- 21:11Speaker 6: dam it straits of Horboes. But the Democrats, they loved
- 21:15Speaker 6: the high gas prices. So all of a sudden, all
- 21:18Speaker 6: these people who love to jump on the no gouging
- 21:21Speaker 6: bandwagon every time a hurricane or a blizzard comes along,
- 21:26Speaker 6: they have no interest in saying, Hey, you don't get
- 21:28Speaker 6: your gasoline from the straits of horror. Mooz, why is
- 21:31Speaker 6: your gas price for fifty a gallon? Not in New
- 21:35Speaker 6: Jersey or Virginia. They're not going to ask that. But
- 21:38Speaker 6: as we predicted, the poor Virginians are going to be
- 21:42Speaker 6: paying more for electric unless, of course, Abigail Spanberger has
- 21:46Speaker 6: any money left in the Virginia state budget to subsidize
- 21:50Speaker 6: the poor people, not just Eli Lilly and AstraZeneca. Did
- 21:57Speaker 6: she leave it a couple of bucks?
- 22:00Speaker 22: You hey, Brandt, And her name is Shary.
- 22:03Speaker 21: I love.
- 22:04Speaker 22: She's a friend of mine whom we were just praying
- 22:06Speaker 22: for because of a surgery. She just went through.
- 22:09Speaker 20: Yes, and I am very happy about something you actually
- 22:11Speaker 20: talk about all the time, which.
- 22:13Speaker 22: Is meta share.
- 22:14Speaker 7: That is right.
- 22:14Speaker 22: Yeah, So what was your experience like with meta share
- 22:17Speaker 22: and healthcare ability?
- 22:18Speaker 20: Honestly, Brandt seamless and what a blessing that is when
- 22:21Speaker 20: you're already nervous about a health issue, which I was.
- 22:24Speaker 20: Members shared my expenses. There were zero problems. And let
- 22:27Speaker 20: me tell you, having people pray with you when you
- 22:30Speaker 20: call in with your need that is just refreshing. Yes,
- 22:34Speaker 20: that's what it is.
- 22:35Speaker 6: What I keep telling people.
- 22:36Speaker 22: People love meta share and they love saving money. The
- 22:39Speaker 22: typical family can save five hundred dollars a month.
- 22:42Speaker 20: I am very thankful for meta share. It is so different,

- 23:06Speaker 23: Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and now it's helping veterinarians deliver
- 23:11Speaker 23: better care for pets. From AI assisted radiographs that speed
- 23:16Speaker 23: up diagnoses to tools that help spot diseases, AI supports
- 23:20Speaker 23: veterinary teams in exciting ways. We're using AI to develop
- 23:25Speaker 23: personalized cancer treatments, predict chronic conditions like feline kidney disease,
- 23:31Speaker 23: and even streamline record keeping so veterinarians can focus more
- 23:34Speaker 23: on patients. But, as with any new technology, always keep
- 23:40Speaker 23: a human in the loop to maintain the best pet healthcare.
- 23:44Speaker 23: AI is a powerful tool, but not a replacement for
- 23:48Speaker 23: your veterinarians expertise, compassion and judgment, which remains at the
- 23:53Speaker 23: center of our profession. For more information on AI and

- 29:31Speaker 21: I don't know when they'll have the press conference, but
- 29:33Speaker 21: I got to thinking, you know, to put basketball on
- 29:36Speaker 21: the shelf now as we've had, you know, a whole
- 29:38Speaker 21: month of it, and you know people's brackets where I
- 29:42Speaker 21: had a guy I teach with who came.
- 29:43Speaker 3: Out of nowhere.
- 29:44Speaker 2: He had Michigan in the final land Arizona.
- 29:46Speaker 21: Pick I was cruising and I thought, I'm gonna be
- 29:49Speaker 21: great to win my own bracket. That's just as well,
- 29:51Speaker 21: because but I got to thinking about a terrific story
- 29:55Speaker 21: that I wanted to tell. I'm gonna I'm gonna share
- 29:57Speaker 21: some Master's memories kind of in my life and how
- 30:00Speaker 21: I became so addicted to this week and the Masters,
- 30:04Speaker 21: and what happens in the rich history and so on
- 30:06Speaker 21: and so farth. I want to tell you a great
- 30:08Speaker 21: broadcasting story, John, I think you'll appreciate it because it
- 30:11Speaker 21: was Jim Nance's rookie year with the Masters, nineteen eighty six.
- 30:15Speaker 21: He was twenty six years old covering one of the
- 30:17Speaker 21: greatest Masters of all time. When Jack shoots thirty on
- 30:20Speaker 21: the back nine, comes out of nowhere and wins.
- 30:23Speaker 2: His sixth Green jacket.
- 30:25Speaker 21: But there was some broadcasting stuff that was going on,
- 30:28Speaker 21: not only with Jim Nance, but with Vern Lundquist and
- 30:31Speaker 21: Ben Wright. And I'll again I'm gonna explain because this
- 30:34Speaker 21: is a great story, all right.
- 30:36Speaker 3: This line.
- 30:36Speaker 21: It was on sixteen. So Jack makes egel on fifteen,
- 30:39Speaker 21: He goes sixteen. He hips shot that almost goes in
- 30:41Speaker 21: the hall, ends up making Bertie there and he Bertie's
- 30:44Speaker 21: you know. He goes eagle Bertie Bertie, and then pars
- 30:46Speaker 21: eighteen and hangs on and seven Balloster throws up on
- 30:49Speaker 21: his shoes and he ends up winning.
- 30:51Speaker 2: Okay, with all that sort of great agnyment, With all.
- 30:54Speaker 21: That being said, it was this line that Nance uttered
- 30:58Speaker 21: that really set the tone for a little historical day.
- 31:04Speaker 6: And there's no doubt about it.
- 31:07Speaker 7: The bear has come out of hibernation.
- 31:10Speaker 21: Okay, So that that line him made Nance really, and
- 31:15Speaker 21: Nance explains in this interview he goes, that wasn't scripted,
- 31:18Speaker 21: it wasn't written down.
- 31:19Speaker 2: I had no idea. I had no idea.
- 31:21Speaker 21: He was twenty six years old on the sixteenth tower.
- 31:23Speaker 21: He goes, I have no idea where I uttered it.
- 31:26Speaker 6: And so he.
- 31:27Speaker 21: Thought maybe then in the recesses of his mind, that
- 31:30Speaker 21: he stole it during the broadcast. At some point he
- 31:33Speaker 21: started to freak. But kid Venturrey, who worked with him
- 31:37Speaker 21: for thirty years or whatever, settled him down just a
- 31:40Speaker 21: little bit.
- 31:40Speaker 27: I just plagiarized someone else's remark.
- 31:43Speaker 7: Not good. I'm never coming back here again anyway.
- 31:47Speaker 27: As I'm walking back dejectedly toward the CBS compound, we're
- 31:50Speaker 27: up about the tenth tee. Here comes a golf cart
- 31:53Speaker 27: racing up to my side. It was Venturi and he said, Jimmy,
- 31:57Speaker 27: how old are you? And I said I'm twenty. He said,
- 32:01Speaker 27: I'm gonna tell you something right now. You may one
- 32:03Speaker 27: day be the first to ever broadcast this tournament fifty times,
- 32:08Speaker 27: but you will never live to see a day greater
- 32:10Speaker 27: than this around Augusta, ashevill.
- 32:13Speaker 21: Yeah and so, and to this day it's still it
- 32:16Speaker 21: still resonates with you know, with me, because I just
- 32:20Speaker 21: eighty six was just that, and I saw it and
- 32:22Speaker 21: I go, oh, this ought to be a pretty good sunday.
- 32:24Speaker 2: I'll just kick back and watch. And sure enough it became.
- 32:27Speaker 21: And I also put in a VHS tape and I said,
- 32:29Speaker 21: I'll go ahead and record this because.
- 32:30Speaker 2: It might be a memorable day. Yeah, yeah, turn up good.
- 32:34Speaker 21: All right? But then there was another sidebar. Okay, so
- 32:37Speaker 21: so Jack's making this move. So fifteen is the par
- 32:40Speaker 21: five five hundred yard Part five, which they've linkedened and
- 32:43Speaker 21: he he it's just a fabulous.
- 32:45Speaker 6: I think the four.
- 32:46Speaker 21: But anyway, he's got twelve feet for eagle making this move.
- 32:50Speaker 21: And Ben Wright, who was a voice of the Masters
- 32:53Speaker 21: for many, many years, ben Wright made this.
- 32:56Speaker 7: Call and this to go seven under per Yes, sir,
- 33:05Speaker 7: the battle is joined.
- 33:07Speaker 2: My goodness, my goodness.
- 33:08Speaker 6: Okay, So.
- 33:11Speaker 21: Thirty minutes later, whatever it was, now Jack birty sixteen,
- 33:14Speaker 21: he goes to seventeen and he's got like an eight
- 33:17Speaker 21: to ten footer to basically wrap up this charge on
- 33:22Speaker 21: the back nine. Vern Lenquist, who had forty Masters under
- 33:26Speaker 21: his belt, I mean, he was forty six years old
- 33:28Speaker 21: when he was working this, had his headset off when
- 33:32Speaker 21: Nicholas was on fifteen. So Lundquist did not hear did
- 33:38Speaker 21: not hear ben Wright's call. So what happens is Nicholas
- 33:42Speaker 21: has got this downhill putt on seventeen. He had to
- 33:45Speaker 21: hit a shot out of the trees downhill putt to
- 33:48Speaker 21: basically win the Masters on seventeen.
- 33:50Speaker 2: So what did vern Lenquist do?
- 33:53Speaker 7: Maybe, yes, sir.
- 33:57Speaker 2: So he uses the s sir call.
- 33:59Speaker 21: Well, it was it was his call that becomes more
- 34:02Speaker 21: famous than ben Wright's, and it earned Ben Right the
- 34:06Speaker 21: fact that he used, yes, sir, but but Lundquist never
- 34:10Speaker 21: heard it, and so it was Lenquist, yes, sir. So
- 34:14Speaker 21: all the all the times that that Lundquist uh had
- 34:18Speaker 21: signed pictures and he had uh they called it the
- 34:22Speaker 21: greatest call in in masters history, uh you know, and
- 34:26Speaker 21: he got Nicholas even sent you know, an autograph picture
- 34:29Speaker 21: of that put on seventeen and yes, sir, you know
- 34:32Speaker 21: bl blah blah blah blah. But Lundquist said it was
- 34:34Speaker 21: the best, uh you know, the best Masters that he
- 34:37Speaker 21: had ever seen. One sidebar. It was seven and it
- 34:41Speaker 21: was the Citrus Bowl at Jacksonville or the Gator Bowl
- 34:44Speaker 21: whatever I'm trying to remember now, not the Gator Bowl
- 34:46Speaker 21: might have been. Was it the Gator Bowl? Anyway, Virginia
- 34:49Speaker 21: Texas techer playing in the bowl game, Chris Long's last game,
- 34:54Speaker 21: and vern Lunquist was going to broadcast that football game.
- 34:56Speaker 21: And I had a chance to sit down at lunch
- 34:58Speaker 21: with Verna Lunquist and talk talk about his his you know,
- 35:01Speaker 21: famous calls. Well, one of his famous, of course, was
- 35:04Speaker 21: the Tiger chip in and five on sixteen when the
- 35:07Speaker 21: Nike ball rolls the roles. You've seen it a hundred
- 35:09Speaker 21: times and then Nike steals the footage and uses it
- 35:12Speaker 21: for a Nike commercial. You know, Oh my goodness, you
- 35:17Speaker 21: know in your life have you seen And it turned
- 35:19Speaker 21: out to be another just iconic Verna Lundquist call, and
- 35:22Speaker 21: Lundquist explained, he goes, you know, CBS owns me, they
- 35:25Speaker 21: own the audio. I never got a dime, he says,
- 35:28Speaker 21: I never got a dime from Nike for that call.
- 35:30Speaker 2: And that became a big, big commercial, you know, at.
- 35:32Speaker 6: The game image likeness, you name.
- 35:35Speaker 2: Image likeness exactly.
- 35:38Speaker 6: You know the Nicholas story, you know. And I keep thinking,
- 35:42Speaker 6: despite his best efforts to derail it, that at some point,
- 35:46Speaker 6: Tiger is going to have that moment at and probably
- 35:50Speaker 6: at Augusta, you know where he has that Jack Nicholas moment.
- 35:55Speaker 6: But Jack was how well I mean he was. He
- 35:57Speaker 6: was in his fifties, he was forty yeah, he was
- 35:59Speaker 6: forty forty six. Oh he was only forty six at
- 36:02Speaker 6: the time.
- 36:02Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the oldest, the oldest to win a Green jacket.
- 36:06Speaker 6: But it had been forever, I mean, young people coming
- 36:09Speaker 6: into sport. Jack Nicholas, I've never seen him win anything.
- 36:12Speaker 2: He was and on the on.
- 36:14Speaker 21: The as as Jack went to the back nine, he
- 36:16Speaker 21: was I don't know if I can't remember the exactly,
- 36:18Speaker 21: but he was like four or five shots out. I
- 36:20Speaker 21: mean he had he had no chance, and he you know,
- 36:22Speaker 21: he birdies ten. Uh and he actually bogey's twelve, and
- 36:27Speaker 21: then he birdies thirteen with a great chip shot. But
- 36:30Speaker 21: then just you know, he goes on this run parts fourteen,
- 36:32Speaker 21: but then the eagle fifteen, the birdie on sixteen, the
- 36:35Speaker 21: birdie on seventeen, shoots thirty on the back.
- 36:37Speaker 2: And a game, set match, and then uh yeah.
- 36:40Speaker 21: Greg Norman has a chance now for a playoff, and
- 36:43Speaker 21: Norman's in the fairway and he sails a four iron
- 36:46Speaker 21: into the crowd and makes bogie and Nicholas becomes the
- 36:49Speaker 21: Masters Champion.
- 36:50Speaker 2: So yeah, there's just a lot of great.
- 36:52Speaker 6: Mind because he was the bad guy. I mean, you know,
- 36:54Speaker 6: he was the anti Arnold Palmer. I mean he was
- 36:57Speaker 6: who's this kid? And nobody likes Arnold Palmer Ohio?
- 37:00Speaker 2: No, No, you know, who's the fat kid from Ohio.
- 37:03Speaker 21: And it was also Nicholas who saw Palmer practicing on
- 37:07Speaker 21: the range in the rain and asked his agent who's
- 37:10Speaker 21: that guy? And his agent said at the time, that's
- 37:14Speaker 21: the guy you have to be, and he look at
- 37:16Speaker 21: his work ethic.
- 37:17Speaker 2: You know, Nicholas changed his whole tune.
- 37:19Speaker 21: And but anyway, I have a million just personal Master's moments,
- 37:24Speaker 21: and I'll tell tell the story later this week with
- 37:27Speaker 21: Ben Crenshaw winning in ninety five when Harvey Peneck is Great,
- 37:31Speaker 21: his legendary teacher died and then you know, he flew
- 37:35Speaker 21: to the funeral, came back and then ended up winning
- 37:38Speaker 21: in ninety five and that's when he you know, hunches over.
- 37:40Speaker 2: And so anyway, we'll get into a couple of those
- 37:42Speaker 2: this week. It is Master's Week. And that's why I
- 37:44Speaker 2: wore my ament corner half for.
- 37:46Speaker 6: You can smell the azalas azaleas blooming, Yes you can,

- 38:13Speaker 28: for most hard working Americans, this just isn't the case.
- 38:16Speaker 28: Why because most people spend more time planning next weekends
- 38:20Speaker 28: getaway than trying to ensure they're going to pay less
- 38:23Speaker 28: than taxes. My financial fitness team has put together some
- 38:26Speaker 28: materials that I know are going to help you. It's

- 38:37Speaker 28: and an investor's guide to taxes.

- 44:10Speaker 3: The First Thing Today by Joe Thomas on the Tunk
- 44:14Speaker 3: Media Network, all naturally and free of artificial intelligence.
- 44:18Speaker 23: Right, oh yes, wait a minute, disupposed man.
- 44:22Speaker 6: Wait wait, disupposed man when they were just a band.
- 44:31Speaker 6: So this story over the weekend apropos of nothing that
- 44:35Speaker 6: did the kids and I think they're actually calling it
- 44:39Speaker 6: Sons of Beatles are going to issue a cover album
- 44:44Speaker 6: of like their parents' songs. It's led by Zach Starkey,
- 44:49Speaker 6: who's the oldest of the crew, and of course he
- 44:53Speaker 6: just finished off like I honestly think Zach Starkey was
- 44:57Speaker 6: the drummer for Pete Townsend and Roger Daltrey longer than
- 45:00Speaker 6: Keith Moon was. But apparently he's doing it with the
- 45:07Speaker 6: two kids of Lennon and McCartney, not Julian, who actually
- 45:12Speaker 6: has an actual, verified hit record to his credit, didn't
- 45:15Speaker 6: ask Julian to do it, but Sean and I don't
- 45:20Speaker 6: remember McCartney's kid. Apparently even Robbie Shankar's kids are involved
- 45:28Speaker 6: in the album. George Harrison's kids and the sons of
- 45:31Speaker 6: Beatles doing some things. Okay, I mean, if my sons
- 45:37Speaker 6: try to take over this radio program you're gonna have
- 45:39Speaker 6: you'll notice. I'm just telling you now, if my daughter
- 45:42Speaker 6: takes over, her voice is higher, not a lot. I mean,
- 45:45Speaker 6: she's a mezzo soprano, but her thought process is her
- 45:51Speaker 6: her synapses fire in a lot the same way that
- 45:54Speaker 6: mine do. It's just like if you ever talk to
- 45:56Speaker 6: Eric Trump and Don Junior, you can tell Eric has
- 46:00Speaker 6: got the genetic thought processes from his dad. There so
- 46:06Speaker 6: a couple of emails. Oh give me the one from
- 46:11Speaker 6: that we got over the weekend about the post office,
- 46:13Speaker 6: But first I want to get to ones off of
- 46:15Speaker 6: today's program. Charles writes in on the subject of buyer's
- 46:20Speaker 6: remorse Virginia style. I guess the Democrats were fooled by
- 46:24Speaker 6: the lipstick on the pig in a poke today at
- 46:30Speaker 6: the metaphor mixing table Againt Charles. I appreciate it, but
- 46:37Speaker 6: you know the part of the fooling is not the
- 46:42Speaker 6: Democrat but the Republicans who stayed home thinking ads our
- 46:48Speaker 6: turn We're just you know, we always lose the I mean,
- 46:53Speaker 6: the voter turnout in Virginia was fifty two win change percent.
- 47:01Speaker 6: And now you've got electric bills going up. Oh and
- 47:04Speaker 6: here's a text message from Mark. He said, Mark, Mark Wrights, Joe,
- 47:08Speaker 6: you left out the best part of the story. Not
- 47:11Speaker 6: only is Dominion raising electric rates on everyone, and span
- 47:14Speaker 6: Burger is gonna let it happen. She took money from Dominion. Yeah,
- 47:19Speaker 6: she took one hundred thousand dollars from Dominion Energy, the
- 47:22Speaker 6: big electric utility in Virginia, for her inaugural party. I mean,
- 47:32Speaker 6: living down to stereotypes and you just want you want
- 47:36Speaker 6: to be out there. And I sleep very well at night.
- 47:39Speaker 6: Last night, not included my wife made dinner late, and
- 47:45Speaker 6: I ate tacos like right before I mean at like
- 47:50Speaker 6: thirty minutes before going to bed, and I had the
- 47:52Speaker 6: prerequisite nightmares that you're supposed to have when you do
- 47:56Speaker 6: something like that. But I sleep generally well at night
- 48:01Speaker 6: because I know that I have told you what you
- 48:03Speaker 6: need to know, and if it doesn't turn out that way,
- 48:07Speaker 6: I feel like I've done my part. There's always more
- 48:12Speaker 6: you could do. But it's not like we weren't raising
- 48:17Speaker 6: the siren about things like Reggie we call people from
- 48:21Speaker 6: New York. We had people from all over the country
- 48:23Speaker 6: saying this is what happens California telling us what their
- 48:26Speaker 6: electric world was like. Now you're stuck with it for
- 48:32Speaker 6: at least two years. And I know that sounds mean spirited,
- 48:38Speaker 6: but there's not much you can do about it. The
- 48:41Speaker 6: next election that anyone in Virginia is going to have
- 48:44Speaker 6: any say about this isn't going to be until twenty
- 48:51Speaker 6: twenty eight. Well, twenty twenty seven will be when the
- 48:56Speaker 6: voting takes place. You can vote on Just Say No,
- 49:01Speaker 6: which is the campaign to stop the gerrymandering. Yeah, you
- 49:04Speaker 6: can send a come up and there, get out and vote.
- 49:10Speaker 6: Take that angst and that feeling. This unlists the Florida
- 49:16Speaker 6: story about the governor wants a list of terrorist organizations,
- 49:20Speaker 6: and again very specific. Terrorist is somebody that uses the terror,
- 49:28Speaker 6: uses violence or the threat of violence to get people
- 49:32Speaker 6: to change their way of doing things. And it's very
- 49:38Speaker 6: specific and it has to be if this law in
- 49:42Speaker 6: Florida is going to hold on, because very easily a
- 49:47Speaker 6: Democrat can flip it around and use it against the
- 49:50Speaker 6: Madison Institute and stuff like that. This one I'm on
- 49:59Speaker 6: a known anti government, anti war, pro free market terrorist list.
- 50:06Speaker 6: And again, this is what leftists do. Leftists take a
- 50:10Speaker 6: word that means something very specific. Somebody who threatens violence,
- 50:14Speaker 6: perhaps even commits violence, so that their threats can be
- 50:17Speaker 6: seen as more credible to make somebody capitulate with their
- 50:22Speaker 6: demands a leftist. And we watched this with Merrit Garland's
- 50:30Speaker 6: investigations into parents going to school board meetings and what
- 50:36Speaker 6: were the parents' crimes. They told the school board members
- 50:40Speaker 6: that they would try to get a recall petition started,
- 50:45Speaker 6: and that was a terrorist threat. You hold an elected office,
- 50:55Speaker 6: you can be recalled just as much as a judge
- 50:59Speaker 6: can be recalled. There's a process for it. It's in
- 51:02Speaker 6: the law. That's not terrorism. But they were threatening their
- 51:07Speaker 6: cushy representative job. They're terrorizing me because Democrats view their
- 51:14Speaker 6: position in government, their position to move the money around,
- 51:18Speaker 6: to be venture capitalists. I told you Abigail Spanberger getting
- 51:21Speaker 6: her Shark Tank on giving money to Eli Lilly and
- 51:25Speaker 6: AstraZeneca because they need it so much while raising Virginian's
- 51:31Speaker 6: electric bills. This is what they do, This is who
- 51:35Speaker 6: they are. They can tell you all they want, and
- 51:41Speaker 6: until a better class of people start populating that political party,
- 51:46Speaker 6: it is a pox on their house. And every time
- 51:49Speaker 6: somebody who is legitimate, like a you know, a Joe
- 51:54Speaker 6: Rogan or Bill Maher says listen, you guys are ridiculous.
- 52:01Speaker 6: You see them bear the brunt of public crucifixion, the
- 52:10Speaker 6: character assassination becomes profound because you're challenging their position in
- 52:20Speaker 6: this world of venture capital where we'll take your money
- 52:25Speaker 6: at the butt end of a gun, because if you
- 52:28Speaker 6: don't give us your money, we're going to take your property.
- 52:31Speaker 6: We're going to take your freedom, and then we can
- 52:36Speaker 6: give it to whoever we want. And it boils down
- 52:41Speaker 6: as simply as that, and someone who stands up against that,
- 52:44Speaker 6: to them is terrorizing them. So we have to be
- 52:49Speaker 6: very careful of these rules.
- 52:51Speaker 17: A few years ago, my youngest son had something minor
- 52:55Speaker 17: turned into something very major in a matter of hours.
- 52:57Speaker 6: It was Medishare that came through for us. There was
- 53:00Speaker 6: no hassles, there was no problem.
- 53:02Speaker 17: That's what's so wonderful about knowing that you're a part
- 53:05Speaker 17: of such an incredible ministry.
- 53:07Speaker 26: Meta Share is a biblical approach to healthcare where Christians
- 53:11Speaker 26: share each other's medical expenses.
- 53:13Speaker 5: Medishare is a family, a group of people that stick
- 53:17Speaker 5: with you through the hardest times of your life.
- 53:20Speaker 26: Metashare isn't insurance. It's a nonprofit ministry over thirty years old,
- 53:25Speaker 26: and members have shared over eight billion dollars of each
- 53:27Speaker 26: other's medical bills.
- 53:28Speaker 2: We don't have to spend so much on health insurance.
- 53:31Speaker 3: You can focus on on supporting other people.
- 53:33Speaker 7: Meta Share is affordable.
- 53:35Speaker 26: Medishare is biblical.
- 53:36Speaker 11: Medashare is family.
- 53:37Speaker 26: Join thousands of Christians who can help you save on
- 53:40Speaker 26: your healthcare and support your family when.
- 53:43Speaker 1: You need it.
- 53:43Speaker 26: Call eight five five share forty eight five five share forty.
- 53:48Speaker 26: That's eight five to five share forty
