Speaker 1 (00:20):
Good evening, America. Brian Glenn filling in tonight for the
Great Grand Stench.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Phil will be back in.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
The Seacom Monday of next week. We certainly hope you
guys have a fantastic weekend. I'm glad you're joining me
right now. So much to talk about on this show
as we kind of go into now what we've been
described as the second one hundred days of this Trump presidency,
(00:47):
and it's been my honor to be at the White
House and cover President Trump for Real America's voice, as
he has really unveiled such a dramatic change and plan
in this everything from the border, to the economy, to
foreign policy, into and really for the cultural war that
(01:09):
we have on as well.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
So we're going to recap some of those.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Plus we'll talk about the way the media has covered
President Trump in the past and how that has changed now.
And we've got we just found out last night that
that NPR and PBS will no longer get federal funding
for what they do, and I think that as a
(01:34):
direct result of not only culturally we have pretty much
spoken out about how biased their news are, the organizations are,
but the sub Committee on DOGE had a hearing a
couple of months ago when we really exposed some of
the corruption in terms of how they cover the news
(01:54):
and if they really do have an unbiased approach to
covering not only President Trump of this country.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
We'll talk about that as well.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Plus, I feel like we have an a resurgence.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
I guess you could say on made in America.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Things that embrace the American culture, things that embrace who
we are as a country, getting back to our grassroots.
And when you can put that in a clothing company
that really resembles the way it feels to be an American,
the pride, the simplicity, the friendship, the camaraderie that we
(02:31):
have as Americans, I think that's really important. We'll talk
to the owner of one clothing outfit company that has
done just that. Then a couple months ago, I was
in the Oval Office with Kid Rock and President Trump
as he signed an executive order basically getting rid of
(02:52):
scalpers ticket brokers that would mark up tickets for concerts.
And I'm a big music guy. I love conc search,
I love going to live events. But sometimes when you
get on the market, you find out exactly how much
that ticket's going to cost. You, Well, a lot of
people may have second thoughts on going to that event. Well,
the executive order, the Ticket Act, was aimed to get
(03:16):
rid of all the scalpers, and Kid Rock was very
open about that. We'll talk to a gentleman that's in
the industry that says, perhaps this executive order doesn't go
far enough, and what has happened now with the Ticket
Act might actually undermine what President Trump has done. Then,
(03:37):
probably one of the most ridiculous things I've seen today
on the internet. If you've ever been on a flight,
you've been warned to put that seat belt on.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
It's a federal regulation.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Well, one person allegedly did not put that seat belt on,
and we'll find out if it's really him. And then also,
what in the world's happening in Texas right now? Now
that is my home state, That's why I was pretty
much born and raised, worked most of my life in
the state of Texas. But that House of Legislation right now,
(04:13):
that House of Representatives, I don't know what they're doing.
It seems like we're going backwards. It's what is this.
The Left has made such gains in that State's beyond me.
We'll talk to a political strategist as well. But when
it comes to the first one hundred days, let's talk
about what he's done with the border. Not only has
(04:33):
he reversed the massive migration of illegal immigrants coming into
our country. We're talking about having numbers close to fifteen
thousand a day at certain points. Now we're down to
a couple dozen. I would say that's a pretty good
job of shutting it down. So the border wall is
(04:56):
a big part of that. Of course, the executive orders
and the remaining all the policies really contributed to that
as well. And then even look at the economic side
of things. President Trump inherited a very, very disastrous economic
situation with the double digit inflation across the board. Just
(05:17):
about every consumer good that we had in our economy
was double digit inflation gas, not just gas, food, lodging, hotel, airfare,
car insurance, electricity bills, you can name it.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
He's had to tackle.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
All of that, and of course you put the tariffs
on top of what is meant to bring manufacturing back
to this country. State Slight, Michigan, Stateslight, Pennsylvania. That's what
tariffs are meant to do. So he's tackled the inflation
now he's bringing manufacturing back. We've seen an unprecedented I
think it's a seven trillion dollar investments in this country
(05:58):
from companies like Nvidia and other companies that have moving
their manufacturing back to the States. And then you look
at the culture that we've changed in the press room.
And we'll get to Adam Weiss here in just a
second about that, about how the wh the White House
Press core that has mainly been responsible for the access
(06:21):
in that briefing room and on Air Force One, they
have been responsible for that. Well, when the Trump administration
came in, they quickly stripped them with that authority.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
So now the Trump.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Administration has opened up the press briefing rooms for organizations
like Real America's Voice and others to come in the
room and ask questions and now not only fly on
Air Force one and be in the Oval office. I've
had the pleasure of being on Air Force one now
three times, and I'm in the Oval Office at least
maybe once a week. So that access has opened up.
(06:57):
But a lot of critics, you know, they say that
for whatever reason Trump is, you know, allowing these pro
Trump news outlets in there for his advantage.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Well, I will say this.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
When Joe Biden took over the White House in twenty twenty,
he kicked out over four hundred media outlets that had
credentials in the White House to cover from what would
be the previous Trump administration. So he definitely cleared the
deck there. Well, now we're onto defunding MPR and PBS,
(07:31):
and that has not only been something that the base,
most of America has won it and now it's a reality.
I want to bring in Adam Weiss. He is host
of Media Exposed that you can see right here on
Real America's Voice. He's political strategists, he's a PR guru.
And let's talk Adam if we can real quickly. Thanks
(07:54):
for joining us, by the way, I hope you're having
a fantastic Friday. But let's talk about the impact that
the media has had on Trump. Now, I saw it
a percentis the other day that it was like ninety
three percent of the story so far in the first
(08:15):
one hundred days of President Trump has been what we
considered negative stories. I'm sure you've seen that as well.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
I think this time around, the first time around, they
were going after his family, that were going after his business.
They were going after the hotel he had in DC. Remember,
they're not going after that as much you're going after
they're defending such insane policies this time criminals, gangsters, judges
that are not following the law. Every single they're falling
(08:46):
on the side of what we call the eighty twenty.
And they're always with the twenty. So, but the negativity
is worse this time. The article, the coverage you're doing
towards the overall what we call the orbit of Maga
of conservatism and the Trump orbit, and for decades and decades,
Then why are we supporting PBS and NPR The mainstream
media already has about ninety eight percent of liberal coverage anyway,
(09:09):
Why are we giving taxpayer fund five hundred and thirty
five million dollars a year to more liberal coverage. Finally,
somebody had the courage to say, no more, no mass
you're gone. We're defunding you. And even the Morning Brian
yesterday morning, Thursday morning, they wrote a story said people
who fled authoritarian regimes consider they said regimes remind them
(09:32):
of home the way Trump is behaving. This is what
they Even the morning before, they still writing articles like
that on their website.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
I know the lawsuits are already kind of flying. They're
claiming that their First Amendment right is being stripped away.
And I thought, well, I didn't know, Adam, that our
founding fathers had put in the in the Constitution that
if you're a media outlet, you immediately get funded by
taxpayer dollars. If that's the case, I think you know,
(10:01):
next Stars, Sinclair, teg DA, they all should just line
up and get their funding. Let's toss to assaut number sixteen.
Tim Burchett weigh in on defunding MPR and PBS.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
Take a listen.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
We have got to codify these bills.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
That come out.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
NPR needs to be cut off, public television cut them off.
And we're not saying we're against public you know, we're
not against the First Amendment. Now I love the First Amendment.
They can say whatever they want to, but Dad got them.
My tax dollars don't need to be sponsoring a bunch
of Marxist agenda.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
You know, Adam.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
I think what's really important to point out here is
we do we do have to codify these executive orders.
By the way, and I have been pounding on the
desk as hard as I can that I love these
executive orders and the President Trump and as a team
has done an amazing job. But if these aren't codified
into legislation, into law, then god forbid, the next administration
(11:07):
comes in under democratic control and they're all going to
be reversed. Now, in terms of MPR and PBS, that
is a funding issue.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
That is a budget issue.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
So as long as it's removed from future budgets, they
can't exist. And Adam, it's only sixteen percent of their
budget actually comes from the federal government.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
So they have these big.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Donors, right, you know this, They have people that foundations
that pour one hundreds of millions of dollars into their companies.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
You know, the one thing you got to give Brian
the left the great at creating a great narrative, great stories,
they sound, they you know, great messaging.
Speaker 5 (11:49):
So we've always heard PBS NPR it's for the public
good until you dig deep and say, wait, everything they
talk about is anti anti American base, the anti conservatism,
anti Trump, anti every Republican president.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
The only thing that ever can go down of PBS
and PR is sesame Street. But somehow over the is
the even kind of room Sesame Street. They come into
Wolf the Wolf Sesame Street. So we don't need it anymore.
There's enough news outlets out there. You can support yourselves
with enough grants and enough donations, and you know, and
capitalism if you if you have a good product, capitalism
(12:25):
will come through.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Right, that is true.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Uh, you know what I have noticed they enjoy I
guess criticizing. Maybe that what you would consider a pro
America outlet, like Real America's Voice or a pro Trump,
pro common sense.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Let's toss to sought eight data Bash on CNN.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Uh, they're having some fun poking about MAGA media.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Take a listen.
Speaker 6 (12:53):
Let's talk about the White House Press Corps.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Let's first listen to some of the questions that the
president has gotten in his first one hundred days.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
You got the perfect pill for board all on. Everybody
in the press wants to know this, how do you
do it as the president?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Well, people were asking me, Adam, you know the president
you've been around and the guy you know, he's up
eighteen hours a day working, And that was a legitimate question.
And you got the media. I HD the cognitive ability
of Joe Biden.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Forever, I said five years ago was at like the
last rally in Miami on the Sunday night. It was
his fourth stop of the day. It was like one
in the morning. I turned around, I said this, five
or five or ten thousand people are at Miami Airport.
I said, there's no way he's going to lose. Lose.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
He did.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
But you know the Shenanigans that went through there. But
the kiss fest that when happened at Brian last week
at the White House Correspondence Stinner patting themselves in the
back and they gave a guy, Alex Thompson an award
from for bravery for pointing out Biden's defaults. Is you know, wait,
I don't notice any of that, did you? For axios?
(14:08):
I can give you one hundred journalists from our state
then over to moderate to write that called out Biden
for five years before he was even president, when he
did his interviews in the basement during COVID US an excuse,
so give me a break. At the White House Correspondence
Association giving a guy like Alex an award.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Yeah, you know what's one of the uh one of
the most humbling times I've been in the briefing room
is when Patty Morland, mom of Rachel Morland, the mother
of five who was brutally murdered, rape assaulted by an
illegal immigrant gang member in this country.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
When Carolyn Levitt had Patty.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Moreland in that room and she told that story to
those journalists, Adam, she was shaming them. Their heads were
down looking at the floor. They know that they have
been on the wrong side of this argument as far
as trying to defend that Maryland Man is simply just
(15:08):
Maryland man and not an illegal alien. So I was
wondering if the next day, Adam, if the press would
have learned their lesson and they would have perhaps swallowed
a humble pill and realized that they have been on
the wrong side of this narrative. But Adam, I gave
him way too much credit because the next day they
(15:30):
continue to push out the same thing of why are
we unjust unjustifiably not giving these people due process on
the way out of the country that they had no
process on the way in.
Speaker 6 (15:45):
They don't learn the lesson, No, not at all.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
I mean, it's basically defending the defensible. It's defending the criminals,
defending everything that we stand for in American society. I
thought they would get a little better this time around,
but they the media, the mainstream media, after we gave
a big punch. We gave a big punch buying through culture,
through the media, one person and his movement really beat
(16:09):
the media, and they've gotten worse. Really, I didn't think
they'd get this bad. But they're hanging on these terrible
issues and it's embarrassing. But thank god, thank god, President
and the White House Press Office opened it up to
other media outlets so people can hear the truth and
good messaging like you and some of your questions that
went viral and you've turned them into you know, it's funny.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
It's it's interesting that some of the questions. You know,
obviously the question to Zelenski that went viral globally and
I've gotten tens of thousands of responses from around the world,
most favor.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Support you should have got you should have got a
suit sponsor from that.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Yeah, hey, I need to work on that. That's a
great opportunity.
Speaker 7 (16:56):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
But it's a question that that many Americans and those
in the media we're asking. I saw him hobbling the
halls of Congress with this wounded warriors, lobbying for more
money for this war. So if you're going to come
to the highest office in this country, show some respect
to put on a suit.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I do want to throw to stop fifteen.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Last night, President Trump was at the University of Alabama
at their commitment speech, and he was given some words
of encouragement to these young graduates. Just take a listen
and we'll talk about it. On the other side.
Speaker 8 (17:30):
You'll embrace this moment and you'll step forward with strength
and grit, faith and patriotism to put America on a
new trajectory.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
For your children. And then you'll take your.
Speaker 8 (17:40):
Place among the greatest generations and the history of our country.
I think you have a chance to be the greatest
generation in the history of our country because we're turning
it around, and you.
Speaker 7 (17:50):
Happen to be available. You're available. That's a good time
to be available.
Speaker 8 (18:02):
There is sometimes when it is set so good to
be available, But this is a great time. I'm absolutely
confident that the Alabama class of twenty twenty five is
up to the test.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Adam, do you agree with that?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Do you think that President Trump is inspiring we're in
the golden age? Do you think the younger generation is
being inspired by President Trump?
Speaker 3 (18:27):
You got here's one thing Trump been. He's part motivational,
part entertainer, part comedian, and he is the greatest market
we've ever seen in my lifetime. And it's nice to
have somebody stand out there. Finally a president talking about
traditional values, believe in yourself, believe in America, you know.
And we we were beating over the head for the
(18:48):
last six years how bad we are and it's a
terrible nation and looking, you know, looking to yourself and
how you know. So, finally this is good for America, Brian,
and I think it's going to help the youth of
America to be inspired again and not be feel guilty
about being an American.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
You know, We've got about two minutes left and I
want to get your thoughts on some of the I
would say the biggest failures in the media this last administration,
whether or not was turning a blind eye to the
border or to Joe Biden's ability to walk upstairs. Where
do you think the media failed the most in covering
(19:28):
the Biden administration?
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Basically everything they did, they hit Biden's mental decline, which
is not right because leader of a free world, leader
of the nation, to have this guy. Nobody calls it
a day every day was calling her a day, which
is ridiculous. The president, I say, you see Trump now,
he doesn't stop from morning, noon to night. Event after
an event. He wasn't doing events, Biden. They didn't call
(19:51):
him out. It was nothing. It was like their faults
on the their faults on the border. But one thing
I noticed, probably from the beginning, you know, even with Obama,
right remember Slindra, they would be like a scandal, right,
so they'd covered a scandal, but they wouldn't move it forward.
What happens. But in Republicans when we have a scandal,
they moved forward. They run through the house speaker, they
(20:12):
runt the congressman, they keep it going. Biden, they wouldn't
even talk about the scandal unless you covered you know,
you went on Instagram or you want, on some networks
like ours. You didn't know for the main street there
were scandals happening in Afghanistan, the failures of Afghanistan, the
failures of COVID, the failures of his son. That was
all hidden. So what the mainstream media is they wouldn't
(20:32):
even cover him falling downstairs. Everything you do, Brian, you
know this new journet that the president of the United States.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Does he falls?
Speaker 3 (20:40):
He falls, the shoe falls is news, it's newsworthies the
president of the United States. They threw out the basic
principles of news because they wanted to cover for Biden.
They were really a stenographers and they were pretty much
the White House Press Office all in one.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Yeah, I've got about a minute left. If someone has
not tuned in to Media Exposed Adam, let's let's talk
about your show for a second. When can they watch it?
And obviously it's right here in real America's voice. Give
us the four one one on that.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Well right before you ran on Sunday at six pm,
right before your show, So catch my show first and
then tune into Bryan Sunday in America where this week
we covered Briday, we covered the first one hundred days
Trump's first hundred days. We're talking about that, We're talking
about the border. We did talk a little about Michelle
Obama and her cringe worthy podcast that's coming out later,
(21:31):
so that more we got it again, and a lot
more coming up about Trump and the congressional leaders and
how they're being covered as well. Because there's a lot
of town has happened. We don't know if these town
halls are real Aftro Turf paid actors, so we touch
on that a lot too.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
Yeah, I was at a town hall that MTG did
a couple of weeks ago, and it was they they're
the Democrats are trying to disrupt the Republican town halls,
which people are not paid to go. They want to
go and support their representative in their district. Adam, thank
you so much for joining us. I appreciate you. Once again.
(22:09):
Watch Adam Show Media Exposed an hour before Sunday America
on Sunday at six pm Eastern.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Adam, thanks a lot. I appreciate it. Thank you.
Speaker 6 (22:19):
Brian, having a good weekend you too.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
All right, coming up after the break, what in the
world is going.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
On in Texas?
Speaker 1 (22:28):
I thought Texas was a very conservative state.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
It is, but the House of Representatives. I don't know
if I need.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
To go down there and slap a few people around.
Of course, I'm not advocating for violence, but maybe we
could force them to do the right thing. We coming
up next to Bobby every joins me to talk about
the state of Texas. Do not go anywhere on this
Friday night.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
All right, Friday night.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Hope everyone's having a great evening, Grant Stinchfille.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
We'll be back here next.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Week, but until then, you have me, so buckle up,
get some popcorn.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Let's have some fun coming up in a few.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
I love what's made in America, and I love American brands,
brands that really kind of drawl in the essence of
what it feels like to be an American and kind
of go back when everything wasn't so complicated. We'll talk
about one brand, a clothing brand is doing just that.
But let's talk about being a Texan. For the most part,
(23:37):
I was born and raised in Texas. I consider myself
a first. You know, first I'm a Texan, then I'm
an American. Being a Texan is a good thing. It's
a proud thing. We're proud to be Texans. We're also
proud to be Republicans, and we're proud to be Conservatives.
But in the House of Representatives in Texas, things aren't
looking like they should.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
What is a problem now?
Speaker 1 (24:00):
We have all this Muslim insurgence going on across Texas,
all these different moths being built. Sharia law seems like
it's about to take over. Is that really going to happen?
Or is that just a lot of hype that we're
seeing on social media. Joining me now is Bobby Everley.
He is a political strategist, He's a Republican and he
(24:22):
has a show called The Thirteen Minute News Hour. But yes,
you can get a news an hour's worth of news, Bobby,
in just thirteen minutes.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
It's that easy, right.
Speaker 9 (24:33):
I found a way to do it, man. But I
appreciate being on Brian's Great to see you.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
Yeah, good to see you again. You and I go back.
I know you're a Texan. We talk about Texas politics
quite a bit. What is going on in Texas right now?
We'll play some sound from a former speaker, Dade Feeling,
and we'll talk about some of the issues.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
But what is the biggest issue right now?
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Why does it seem like the Texas how of Representatives
is leaning more left than ever?
Speaker 9 (25:04):
Well right, it gets worse and worse and worse. And
the thing is is that Texas should be leading the way.
You know, we're the biggest conservative state out there. We
should be leading. We've got a great governor, We've got
our state Senate that's doing the job. But I think
just over the years, so many Democrats realized Hey, wow,
we can't win if we don't switch over to the
(25:24):
Republican parties.
Speaker 6 (25:25):
So you've got the.
Speaker 9 (25:26):
Democrats being Democrats and you've got Republicans being Democrats, and
what it ends up doing is nothing to advance our
conservative agenda. They try after each session to come back
in with these flyers and say, look at all this
conservative legislation we passed. Well, guess what, it's Texas. It
should be conservative. You shouldn't have to put that on anything.
You shouldn't have to sell the activists of the base
(25:48):
that you're doing a good job. And instead it's liberal
bill after liberal bill, giving more and more power to
the Democrats. We can go on and on about what's
going on in Texas right now, I'll get to I'm
a bit but yeah, in a nutshell, it is not
as conservative, especially in the House, and something needs to
be done.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Okay, let's listen to some piece of legislation, and I
want to get your thoughts on this former speaker Date
Feeling from the bouw Mine area, very familiar with him.
He's put something what is described as an anti First
Amendment bill.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
Take a listen to one, and we'll talk about on
the other side represent feeling.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
Can you identify some of the specific types of political
advertising that you think would be a crime under this bill.
Speaker 6 (26:34):
Well, again, if you knowingly.
Speaker 10 (26:38):
With the intent to publish through broadcast political advertising including
an image and audio recording or video recording of an
officeholder or candadi's appearance, speech, or content that did not
occur in reality.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
Okay, well, I mean, you know, it kind of sounds
a little bit like pushing back on what would be
considered a deep fake or fake news.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I mean, what's your take on that.
Speaker 9 (27:04):
My take is that these guys just don't know what
they're talking about. This is like, I mean, especially when
gen Z we're trying to reach out to gen Z
to bring the younger crowd in. They love political memes.
They exist for reels and political memes and videos. And
this goes after the language is so broad that you
start making fun of Dade Feelin, for example, or some
(27:25):
of these other you know, Rhino Republicans, and you could
wind yourself find yourself in jail. And what's funny is
that his office door right now is peppered with all
sorts of political memes and photos of him that are
doctored and altered I guess he doesn't really have a
megmind head like they show on his depth at on
(27:47):
his door. But that's some of the things you'll see
right now if you look. But this is what's going on.
I mean, there was an outrage because they tried to
pass a resolution for a planned parenthood activist that finally
got pulled. But they are pushing DEI. They've expanded the budget,
they've expanded government. They brought in a doze component that
(28:07):
actually spends more money than it takes away. So it's
just outrageous. And in the meantime, Republican priorities such as
election integrity, those are languishing, property tax relief, they haven't
addressed that at all.
Speaker 6 (28:22):
Nothing is being done.
Speaker 9 (28:24):
Democrats are being given more power, and we see the
results in bill after bill after bill.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
Let's toss to SOT number two. And you talked about memes.
I've been told that I've got a four finger forehead.
That's just what I've been told, Bobby. I don't know
if that's true. I think it's more like five. I
don't mind making fun of myself. SOT too, Well, listen
to SOT too. Let's discuss it on the other side.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
I got a big forehead. I love for my forehead
to be a little.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
Bit smaller, but that wouldn't be reality.
Speaker 6 (28:56):
I like to be six to two.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
That wouldn't be reality, right, So.
Speaker 10 (28:59):
Let the voters know exactly what they're getting every time
they go to the ballot box.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
So why anyone would want.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
To operate in the shadows is beyond me.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
I don't want to operate in the show goes. Vote
for three CC six and you won't be operating in
the shadow.
Speaker 10 (29:14):
What a disclosure on any mail piece you put out
there that says this is fake?
Speaker 9 (29:18):
I'm lying to you, voter.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
But if someone makes your forehead larger than it should be,
I think that they should be subject to jail time
for that. This is a this is an overreach.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
I mean, there's been some really spicy debates on the
congressional floor, and I've been I've been witnessed to that.
But that that's some pretty good stuff there. But I
do see their point, and like, should someone be, you know,
handcuffed and thrown in jail for pushing on a mail
piece that might not exactly look like the real fake?
Look what they've done to President Trump for the last
(29:56):
four years.
Speaker 6 (29:57):
They exactly.
Speaker 9 (29:58):
I mean the funn sefend and things like that. But
I had no idea that this is actually a forehead
protection bill.
Speaker 6 (30:05):
That's what it seems like they're doing right there.
Speaker 9 (30:07):
But I tell you what, if you just do a
quick search on the Internet, you're going to see some exploded,
extremely large head memes right there. And I had no
idea that the true motivation was to protect himself from
stuff like that. But again, this is just one of
many misguided, misplaced bills that just spend money, they attack
(30:31):
our freedoms, and they don't represent Texas conservative values.
Speaker 6 (30:35):
And that's what it's all about.
Speaker 9 (30:36):
We again, are supposed to be the beacon in the
United States of conservative legislation that can do spirit being
Texan first and then being American as you alluded to,
and in the Texas House, it's completely upside down.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Okay, we've got about a minute left, Bobby. I've seen
this all over social media, the surreal law taking over
possibly taking over Texas, all these Muslim major communities being built.
What do you know about that? Am I exaggerating? Am
I kind of reading too much into this? Or is
(31:10):
that really a threat or a possibility happening in Texas.
Speaker 9 (31:15):
Now, I don't think you're reading too much into it
at all, and we always have to be vigilant. Again,
this is a country that's built on Judeo Christian values,
and we should never be afraid to promote those values,
embrace those values, and celebrate those values. More and more times,
you're seeing holidays, Christian holidays being set aside because of
lack of inclusion. Well, this is the United States of America.
(31:37):
We're a Christian nation. We should be proud of that,
we should stand up for it, and we should fight
for that. I mean what you see on colleges and universities,
it's not just in Texas. They are putting in limitations
that restrict free speech, and they go after they have
a strong anti Christian bias, and we're seeing that in
Texas as well in some of these I want us
(31:59):
to stay and strong.
Speaker 6 (32:00):
I want us to support our faith.
Speaker 9 (32:02):
Theologian as well as an aerospace engineer, and it is
a very important part of who we are as Americans.
We should always stand up for it and never be
afraid to defend it.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Bobby every, host.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
Of the thirteen minute news Hora, joining us tonight, how
can somebody get more information?
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Follow you on social media?
Speaker 9 (32:23):
All social media is Bobby Everley thirteen and please tune
into the thirteen minute News Hour. We'll have a new
show on Monday evening.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
There you go, Bobby, Thank you so much for joining us.
I appreciate it.
Speaker 6 (32:34):
Thanks a love.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
All right.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Keeping with the Texas theme after the break, it wouldn't
feel like you've gone back in time and you're supporting
a time in our country when it was.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
A handshake meant everything.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
There was no contracts, there was no slided eye or
a slided hand. If your hand shook another man's hand,
it meant something.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
We come back. We've got a clothing company that embodies
all of that. On this Friday night edition Stenchfield Tonight,
Stick around.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
I welcome back Stenchfield Tonight. I can promise you Grant
will be back next week. But until then, you have me,
and I'm so glad you do, because I'm glad that
you're joining us here tonight. Now, you know when it
talks when you think about clothing companies, a lot of
people brands and what that brand means to you and
(33:41):
why do you buy it?
Speaker 2 (33:42):
How does it make you feel?
Speaker 1 (33:44):
Where does the money go when you buy anything, any
kind of consumer product, and I think it's important to
know that when you buy a product that the people
who made it have good intentions and they represent your values. Well,
I'm my next guest if their company does just that.
Katie Kip Macbee, she is the creator of boy Heart Clothing,
(34:07):
kind of a Texas born, United States born clothing company,
and she joins me tonight not only to talk about
what it feels like to be an American right now,
especially a small business owner.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
Operating in this environment, but.
Speaker 1 (34:20):
Also what inspired you, Katie, to create this brand that
is kind of a throwback.
Speaker 2 (34:28):
To I'm visiting like.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
The nineteen twenties, thirties, forties era with some of your
stuff that I've seen, but let'sten.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
Yeah, am I right on that?
Speaker 6 (34:37):
You're right?
Speaker 11 (34:38):
It's actually my granddad.
Speaker 6 (34:40):
His name was boy Heart.
Speaker 11 (34:42):
He was foreman of a w ranch in West Texas,
and so Bristol Palin and I are business partners in this,
and we were doing real estate together and had been
for years, so obviously working together every day you get
to know each other in your hearts and your value
and we were both so proud of our heritage and
(35:04):
where we came from and our grandparents and parents and
just the you know back in the day, like you said,
where a handshake kind of sealed the deal. All you
had was your name and so much integrity behind that name.
And we're raising kids in this world right now that
we want to point back to that that, you know,
we can bring that back around and at least continue
to instill that in some of the younger generation.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
You know, now, as far as your business model goes
and the amount of time that you've been out in
the marketplace, are you meeting your expectations?
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Are you seeing that your.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Customers and the people you're selling it to, are they
understanding the brand and the feeling that you guys are selling.
Speaker 11 (35:48):
Absolutely, we're very faith based as well, so I feel
like if you follow us on social media, our posts
reflect that. Bristol and I were just talking the other day.
When orders are coming in and we're seeing these names
that order time and time again, it just means so
much to us. And I know for us as an individual,
it's important to us for the companies of who we support,
(36:09):
so we just feel really blessed and love to see
that in return in our brand and we feel like
our message is coming across it and that's why they
continue to come back and support us.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
Let's go, let's toss to a sought one. This is
President Trump talking about American investments, being a business owner
in America, and we'll talk on the other side.
Speaker 8 (36:34):
So in two months, we had over eight trillion dollars
think of it committed.
Speaker 3 (36:40):
Nobody's ever seen anything like it.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
There's never been anything like.
Speaker 3 (36:43):
It in any country at any time. And it so
because they want to avoid the tariffs. We want to
get here fast.
Speaker 8 (36:49):
And I said, you know a number of times, tariff
is the most beautiful word in the world.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
You know, you know, Katie, the tariff is a very
debated topic.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
But I'll ask you.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
You've got I'm sure friends, colleague, family members that are
that are in business, neighbors at church. Are they confident
in the market right now in this country as far
as the consumer going back and buying goods like that
they have not done the last four years because of
inflation was so high.
Speaker 6 (37:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (37:25):
I feel like so many people that I know in
the small business world, they want to bring it back
to that where it is Americans, And I feel like
that's part of the grit and you kind of have
to ride the wave. But if you don't have faith
that Trump's going to bring us back to that and
then to that good place, and it's kind of like
throwing in the towel. And of course, that's what our
brand is all about, is just grit and integrity, and
(37:47):
we're hoping and having full faith that that's what our
country is going back to.
Speaker 3 (37:53):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
I completely completely agree. You know, it's interesting to see
that little red Maga hat that made you know that
I was on the scene back in twenty sixteen and
at the time after the election, it was almost like
if you wore a Maga hat on the street, you
might get beat up. After this twenty sixteen election, I
(38:16):
know that people were scared to wear it after the
twenty twenty election. But now Katie, being in DC and
seeing so many people on the streets wearing Maga hats.
When you have a hat like the beautiful hat you
have on right now with the American flag, which by
the way, that's a great hat, I would imagine that's
probably one of your best sellers, I would think. But
(38:36):
you know, people are proud to wear you know apparel
now that has an American flag on it.
Speaker 11 (38:43):
Yeah, And honestly, when we started our brand, we were
in that phase where people weren't you were afraid you
were going to be annihilated, and that's kind of five
personal and.
Speaker 6 (38:51):
I started it.
Speaker 11 (38:52):
We didn't want to be fearful in our faith and
we certainly want to be fearful and where we stood politically,
and that's what was a big job driving force and
starting this brand.
Speaker 2 (39:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
All right, so people that are watching right now now,
you're not a paid sponsor, so I want to be
very clear about that. There's I just love the story
of your company. I love the passion that you guys
have for kind of going back to the handshake error.
But how can people find your products? How can they
learn more about your journey and where you're at today
(39:25):
and follow you on social media?
Speaker 2 (39:26):
Of course?
Speaker 11 (39:28):
Yeah, so on Instagram we're at boy Heart h r T.
T Our website is boyheart dot com and of course
it's got our story and just what our brand is
about on our website and then on social media. You know,
every drop that we make, we kind of just tell
the story behind it, whether it's a scripture or an
(39:48):
American flag, we just kind of tell where we were
and where our hearts were in making and designing that
particular piece.
Speaker 1 (39:55):
That's awesome, Katie, thank you so much for joining us
on this Friday night. God bless you, your family, and
I want nothing but the best for you.
Speaker 2 (40:03):
Guys. I think you're taking us all back to the
handshake you.
Speaker 6 (40:07):
Oh, thank you for having me. I really appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
Thank you, Katie, I appreciate it all right.
Speaker 1 (40:14):
Transitioning from clothing companies to concert tickets both things I like.
By the way, Kid Rock was in the executive office
a couple of weeks ago. I was there with them
as we signed or President Trump signed and executive order
to make sure that tickets the operas were removed from
the process.
Speaker 2 (40:34):
Did that happen?
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Is there more that we can do to save concert tickets?
That's coming up? After the breakstick around.
Speaker 5 (40:44):
Life?
Speaker 1 (40:53):
All right, It's Friday night in America. Brian Glynn sitting
in for Grant Stenchvielle. Perhaps your plans this weekend or
to take into concert one of my favorite things to do.
Matter of fact, I'm going to a concert in a
couple of weeks in Ocean City, Maryland.
Speaker 2 (41:08):
Can't wait to see.
Speaker 1 (41:09):
Some great rock and roll, but when it comes to
ticket prices, sometimes you look at the final price and
you go, wait a minute, that's not what the original
ticket price was. And because it was due to a
lot of things, join me once again is Randy Nichols.
Speaker 2 (41:25):
He's Independent Talent Organization.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
Randy, you were on the show probably maybe about a
month ago. Perhaps we talked about this executive order in
the Oval Office with Kid Rock. The Ticket Act made
its way through Congress, and I know it was intended
to kind of and I'm just reading some notes here
to really kind of make sure that the scalpers didn't
(41:51):
get a hold of these tickets or maybe they were
buying speculative tickets on events.
Speaker 2 (41:55):
That hadn't were not even you know, public.
Speaker 1 (41:57):
Yet it went through the House, the Ticket Act got
marked up, it passed. You and I talked afterwards, and
you're telling me that we need to go maybe a
little step further to make sure that we support that
executive order that President Trump signed in the Oval Office.
Speaker 2 (42:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (42:19):
So what I what I have to say on this
is it's great that Congress moved forward, they passed something,
but we have one major flaw on this bill is
the lobbyists got a hold of the folks in the House,
and the bill has a car vout that basically makes
(42:40):
the law toothless.
Speaker 3 (42:42):
It states that.
Speaker 12 (42:45):
Speculative tickets are illegal once the bill is signed by
President Trump, but there's a carve out that specifically states
that you can have a concierge service to acquire your
tickets in advance of the show at being announced or
on sale. And it basically equates to anyone can still
(43:05):
buy a ticket to a show that doesn't exist, that
they don't have a ticket for.
Speaker 3 (43:09):
And I've gone farther and looked at.
Speaker 12 (43:12):
This, and I see, you know, one of the companies
that does this is a company called vivid Seats. And
I go on vivid Seats and I search up an
event and now, in very small print on the website
it states that this is a seat saver ticket and
you will get the ticket later. Doesn't state anything explaining
what that means. So you're basically still fooling people.
Speaker 1 (43:38):
How did that not get caught in the go around
with the ticket act. I'm sure they looked at all this,
I would imagine, or did they skip over this or
is there a third party or a lobbyist that's involved
in making sure that this type of I guess oversight.
Speaker 2 (43:58):
Takes place. I don't know. You explain how that slipped through.
Speaker 6 (44:02):
Yeah, well, funny you should ask.
Speaker 12 (44:04):
There are two co sponsors of the bill.
Speaker 2 (44:07):
One was Representative Schakowski in.
Speaker 12 (44:11):
Chicago, which is the home city to Vivid Seats, who
specifically offers a concierge product already. The other co sponsor
of the bill is Representative Bill A. Rockis, who several
weeks ago was the keynote speaker at a lobbying event
for ticket scalpers. So these ticket scalpers realize we need
(44:33):
some laws to change because there is so much attention
on them. So they've presented these laws that basically look
like they're fixing the problem. But these representatives really don't
understand the issue close enough. No disrespect to Representative Shaikowski,
but I watched her speak on a House floor explaining
(44:55):
the process of buying a ticket, and it was clear
that she's never bought a ticket to anything in her
life neither.
Speaker 2 (45:03):
That's funny, Randy, that's funny. Okay. So now it's in
the Senate, perhaps we have a chance there can we can.
Speaker 1 (45:12):
Blackburn or some of these other great Republican senators. What
can they do to try to maybe write this up
or change it, if you will, to better reflect what
needs to be done.
Speaker 2 (45:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (45:25):
Well, it's interesting because Senator Blackburn fully understands this issue.
Her entire office has been great and so supportive of
the music industry in general.
Speaker 3 (45:35):
She agrees that this far vout should be removed from
the bill.
Speaker 12 (45:40):
The lead on the bill who approves when this goes
to vote is Commerce Committee Chair Senator Cruz, and unfortunately,
currently he's not looking to make any changes to the bill.
So if we could get Senator Cruz to understand, and
I truly don't think that Senator Cruz means to be
on the wrong side of this. I think his sas
(46:02):
like many people's sass, don't understand the issue. They think
they're doing the right thing, and they think, oh, a concierge.
Speaker 6 (46:09):
Service is great, but it's truly.
Speaker 12 (46:11):
Not a concierge service. It's just a line that you're
adding on a website that people won't even see that
allows the same process to happen. So we need Senator
Fruz to just simply have a conversation on it, understand
what the problem is, and if his office could understand
that and educate him on this, I think he would
immediately jump to the right side of the issue.
Speaker 1 (46:33):
All right, well, we're certainly going to make sure that
this show reaches obviously perhaps his ledge lap there and
we can maybe this clip can make us way to
the inbox of someone who works for him and help
educate him on this slight change and needs.
Speaker 2 (46:52):
To take place. And that's for the betterment of concert goers.
Speaker 1 (46:55):
We all want to make sure and plus make sure
that the money the artist at the end of the
day is the one that's compensated the most, because they
are the ones that are well, they're the artists as
you as we can all agree. Randy, thank you so
much for your time. I appreciate it. Thanks for joining
us on this update.
Speaker 12 (47:15):
Thank you very much for caring about this issue, and
have a great weekend.
Speaker 2 (47:18):
I do, thank you, Thank you, Randy.
Speaker 1 (47:21):
All Right, we come back final thoughts on what would
be described as is this really what I saw or
is it a deep fake that's coming up after breaks
the ground therapy like that, I can make it bigger
so I can go outside of your sweat shirt that work.
Speaker 2 (47:43):
Is that? Jon fetterman follow our instructures, refusing to put
on a seatbelt on an airline. All that needs certainly
looks like him. I don't know. It might be a
deep fate until next week. Have a great weekend. Everybody
will see you next week. Grant stands forward m
