Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, It's Michael.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
Your morning show airs live five to eight am Central,
six to nine Eastern in great cities like Memphis, Tennessee, Telsa, Oklahoma, Sacramento, California.
We'd love to be a part of your morning routine,
but we're happier here now. Enjoyed the podcast, Well two three,
starting your morning off right, A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding because we're in the studio.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
This is your morning Show with Michael o'deil chorn.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Seven minutes after the hour, Welcome to Tuesday, March the eighteenth.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Ye have out No.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Twenty twenty five. Jeffrey controlling the sounds Red. Keep an
eye on the content. I'm your humble host, serving you,
Michael del Jorno. Jeffrey just ask, can we call Stephen Booch?
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (00:45):
I said, Well, he had a pretty esteemed military career.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Let's say you get found you in about one punch,
but sure, take a shot at it.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Call him Booch.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
He's a senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation, one of
the finest military and foreign policy minds in America today.
Stephen Boochie filled again for James Carafan, who I believe
is in India. I don't know what the time is
in India, but we thought it was best not to
disturb him. Good morning, Steven, Steven, You've got a lot
of heavy lifting today.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
I will do the best I can and guess you
can call me boch.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
That's what I can call my whole life.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
See, they all called you.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
How how many years in the military were you.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
Uh, twenty eight years on active duty or before that
at West Point and then stayed as a civilian with
do D for another four and a half years after
I retired.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
It's been your It's been your life.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Thank you for your service to me and my family
and my extended family over that course of time. You're
now a senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation, one of
the largest thing tanks in the world. All right, let's
start with these conversations today President Trump and Vladimir Putin. Well,
I could sense and Donald Trump's voice the weight and
the seriousness of this. This is this is a pretty
heavy conversation today. What might they be saying if we
(02:00):
flies on the wall.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
Well, I'm hoping what they're going to say is that
President Trump will give Putin a enough assurance that it
would be in his benefit to get on board with
these talks and start the process of coming to some
sort of agreement that will stop the killing. Now, whether
(02:26):
that will happen or not, a lot of it depends
on Putin, whether he's willing to try and push Trump
to see if he can pull a Biden on him,
or to try and extend the time so he can
do more of the stuff that he might want to do.
But I think he's going to find that President Trump,
(02:47):
number one, is not interested in waiting or pushing this
thing out at all. And two he is not President Biden.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
And I think, don't you, Stephen. I hope so.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
But you know, bullies tend to catch the waters. They
want to try and get a little more. Maybe this
is their last shot. Let's see what we can get.
But I don't think it's going to work. I think
President Trump understands him and desperately wants peace, but he's
(03:21):
not going to give away the store because he thinks
Vladimir Putin's you know.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
His bud.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Yeah, well no, And that's narrative. And I doubt Vladimir
Putin's believing narrative. He may be taking it as a
sign that the President's not completely behind Ukraine completely beyond
being a blank check for them. But I think that's
some of the tough things the president was doing to
get the Ukrainian team on board. To now get Putin
(03:47):
on board, I guess I'm working with this assumption. Look,
if I'm Vladimir Putin, this war didn't go well, you
didn't win in two weeks. You're not winning. There's nothing
that suggests you're going to start winning or ever be
able to complete this end game. He's probably looking for
a way to save face and get as much as
he can on the way out. Now we're between as
(04:08):
much as we can and what reasonably we can give
is the middle ground. I think that's where we're headed.
Probably the question is can we get there?
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Yeah? I agree with that analysis completely. And you know,
we'll see. This is going to be a really, really
important phone call. It's not going to be a social call.
This is going to be business one hundred percent, and
we'll see where it goes. President Trump's proven himself to
be pretty effective in this kind of scenario.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
All Right, We're talking with Stephen Bouchie, Senior Fellow all
Things Military Foreign Policy at the Heritage Foundation Israel. Of course,
obviously the ceasefire is over. Not only did they do
massive extensive air strikes on Hamas targets, we did hoothy
targets recently the US did, and now here comes the
(04:57):
Israel strikes. There is how many times have we Sai
even there's just no future in Israel or America's mind
and many other Allied nations for Hamas to have a
future and whatever the Gaza becomes. But they haven't been
releasing the prisoners. And by the way, I would have
called what they did on Sunday the gates of Hell opening,
(05:18):
but apparently no, that's just our extensive air strikes. If
you don't start releasing, you know, the hostages, now here
come the gates of hell. This is obviously going into
I don't know, it's a slight step back, but I
think it's a necessary thing to get their attention again.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
Right, Yeah, they are foolishly they being Hamas or foolishly
believing whoever is advising them that.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
No, no, hang in there.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
You know the Americans will back off that, you know, yeah,
who really wants the hostages? We can really hold them
to it and squeeze some more out of them. And
I think the patience is over, and we saw the
beginnings of it with you.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
I don't think this is the it. There's there's a lot.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
More that can come if Hamas doesn't wake up and
start playing ball here and with the civilized world, because
I think everybody's losing their patience with them, other than
the crazies who think Hamas are the good guys. Uh,
you know, the rest of the normal world is going
look that these guys need to be removed from the
(06:24):
playing board.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
So obviously the hoothy targets was a message not just
to the houthies but to Iran that funds them. Uh this,
you know, we used to say a lot. You know,
maybe it's because they don't have any left alive, but
everybody from them, from Donald Trump to let to be
being done. Yeah who they've kind of acknowledged we know
(06:48):
most of them are dead, but dead or alive released them.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
So what's Hamas's play now?
Speaker 4 (06:55):
Yeah, I don't I didn't think they had any left before,
but they're they're trying to literally using squeezing blood out
of the rock. But it's not working for him and
they need to stop. They need to release the remains.
If you know, Lord Willing, there's anybody left alive, get
them out. But you know, Hamas has shown itself that
(07:18):
they have been torturing these people. They have been doing
horrendous things, executing babies.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
You know, it's just beyond the pail.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
And if Hamas thinks they're winning points by doing this,
they're even more twisted than I thought. The world is
just shaking its head, going, okay, look, we've been carrying
water for these clowns for a long time and they're
not helping us.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
So what's now.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
The rest of the world is seeing why the Arab
world doesn't want the Palestinians, particularly Hamas in their countries.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Well, you just want where I was going. The Arab world,
I see that as the end game. I don't think
Donald Trump really wants to have what was he going
to call Gaza if the US owned it, it was going
to be the the Mara Gazo.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Well that's the that's the meme.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
But he was calling it something of the Middle East.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
I can't remember what his expression. I don't think that's
his desire.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
I think his desire is to get the Arab world
involved in paying for the rebuild and making sure with
the vested interest, crazy terrorist threads don't ever have control. Again,
I think that's where they're trying to get. We just
can't get beyond the Hamas phase, is what it appears
to me.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
What do you think?
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Yeah, I agree completely they You know, President Trump loves
to throw these crazy ideas out and everybody the left
just goes nuts. And it's like, look, this is negotiating.
He's trying to get these people to move in a
direction he wants him to move. So he says these
things that everybody's well, you can't ever say that. Oh
(08:56):
yes you can, and it moves the ball, so, you know,
more power to him. But it's we got a you know,
Hamos is not reasonable, it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Are the Houthies any more reasonable? And how much?
Speaker 2 (09:10):
What did you make of that? And are closing moments?
You know, Marco Rubio is a great, great spokesperson, and
he's saying, no, we can't have them firing on our
ships or on commercial ships.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
They can't be disrupting shipping.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
This was a target at Houthy's, but I think this
was a message for RN too.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
Yeah. Oh absolutely, Look, the Hoosies didn't build any of
those missiles. They're shooting at people. No, you know, they
don't manufacture those in the backyards of Sanah. Those all
came from Iran. And personally, I think we should keep
hitting the houthies. We need to start hitting some more
Iranian targets so they understand that we understand the genesis
(09:55):
of this problem. And it's in Tehran, it's not in Yemen.
But we're just not quite at that point yet, but
I'll be willing to bet we'll end up getting there soon.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Stephen Bouchi has always not a pinch hitter for James Carafano,
a treasured expert and guests. Thank you for your service
to our country, and thank you for your service to
our listeners today. Steven, God bless you have a great week.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
God bless you too, brother. Take care, Love you booch.

If you miss any of this show, the entire show
is waiting for you in the podcast section of your
iHeartRadio app. That way you can listen in whenever you

a lot. We had a pretty amazing sounds of the
day and some great conversations earlier this morning about Democrat
candidates for twenty twenty eight and the monsters they've created
with the Democrat Party, so much so that Chucky Schumer
(10:46):
has to postpone his book event tour events for security
reasons from his own party. If you miss something, you
didn't really miss it. It's waiting for you on demand
in the iHeart podcast section, which some have.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Even put on their preset button to remind them.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
On the air, streaming live on your iHeartRadio app, and
on demand when you need it the podcast of your
morning show. All right, if you're just waking up, we
have breaking news this morning, this just in, this just in.
Yesterday at the nursing home and an attempt to have
fun with my mother seriously return to old memories as
(11:23):
well as get a little occupational therapy. I brought a
deck of cards and we played spades. Nothing has changed.
I walloped her five sixty eight to two twenty four,
and then I left the board out of her reach
so that everybody caring for her can see that she was.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Walloped by the champ. Champ beats chump five sixty eight
to two twenty four.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
A very embarrassing moment for Joan Uva Camuso del Jardo
continuing coverage throughout the day, as we may play again
later after golf.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
All right, Top five stories the day.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
If you're just waking up, President try says, you can
look forward to the big file dump.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Now.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
There are two hundred and forty thousand documents concerning the
JFK assassination that have been found, eighty thousand of which
will be released today and much, the President says unredacted.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
Speaking while touring the Kennedy Center, Trump said around eighty
thousand pages will be released.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Have instructed my people.
Speaker 6 (12:22):
That are responsible, Lots of different people put together by
Chelsea Gavert.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
The President said, a lot of Americans have been asking
for this for a long time. Kennedy was assassinated in
Dallas in nineteen sixty three.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
I'm Brian Schuck, said up.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
An Larady leader Chucky Schumer has to postpone his book
tour why security concerns.
Speaker 7 (12:45):
It comes after the New York lawmaker voted to advance
a House Republican led funding package. A spokesperson for his
tour said it would be rescheduled over security concerns. Schumer
was scheduled to visit Washington, d C. Baltimore, Philadelphia, and
New York City to promote his new book, Semitism in America.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
A warning. I'm he's a tailor. I think they look
around at their constituents and say, I believe we've created
a monster.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
President Trump claims some of the partons issued by former
President Biden, and I'm thinking of Fauci, I'm thinking of Hunter,
I'm thinking of Biden's brother. They're exposed. They may be
invalid because of auto pen.
Speaker 8 (13:19):
In a truth social post early Monday, Trump said he
was declaring Biden's pardons for members of the January the
sixth House Select Committee void, vacant, and have no further
force or effect because of the fact that they were
done by autopen. He also alleged Biden had no knowledge
about the pardons. Trump went on to say House members
who served on the committee should fully understand that they
are a subject to investigation at the highest.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
Level by Mark Mayfield. Well, so much for the luck
of the Irish. The powerball jackpot is soaring. There was
no grand prize winner on Saint Patty's Day.
Speaker 9 (13:50):
The next drawing is set for Wednesday, and when I'll
be worth at least four hundred and sixteen million dollars.
The cash option on that, in case you're wondering, works
out to just over one hundred and ninety four million.
Yesterday's big drawing, there wasn't a complete bust. Two tickets,
one sold in Colorado and the other in Pennsylvania, are
good for a million dollars each. I'm tammage rhome.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Again. That's the voice of Jesse Colin Young, the front
man of the Young Bloods, dead at the age of
eighty three. This publicist says Young died at his home
in Aiken, South Carolina, where we actually have a listener
in Achin, South Carolina that called in a new him.
He was the lead vocalist play bass on that sixties
County cod Can't Do counterculture sixties counterculture hit Get Together.
(14:37):
The song reached number five on the Billboard Hot one
hundred and nineteen sixty nine. As for Billie Eilish, she
took home Album of the Year at the iHeart Music Awards.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Loved this album with all my heart. I feel very
proud of it and very protective over it, and the
fact that people care about it at all is just
a dream.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
She accepted the iHeart Award on behalf of her brother Phineas,
who helped make the album Me Hard and Soft, debuted
at number two on the Billboard two hundred chart and
gave Eilish the biggest opening week of her career to date.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
We thought, well, it.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Has to be the biggest ever, right, I mean, who
debuts at number one? Then we did some research found
out eighty three songs have debuted at number one. Now,
when we went through that list, and we spent far
too much time going through that list, we found most
of them are from the download era. Why are you
laughing at me? Red, You're sneaky today. There's something up
(15:30):
with you. We spent too much time.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
You're the one that researched it.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
I didn't.
Speaker 10 (15:37):
I would have just left it at I can't imagine anybody.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Ever was number one on their debut week.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
I think most impressive is probably Celine, Dion, Elton John
and Michael Jackson who did it in a music store era.
But yeah, there were eighty three songs that debuted at
number one. We had Your Morning show did not Basketball

The Tarerhels in San Diego State ESPM with the doubleheader

Speaker 6 (16:10):
I'm Joe Big and Tampa and my morning show is
your Morning show with Michael del Jorono.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Hi, It's Michael. Your Morning show could be heard live
weekday mornings five to eight am six to nine am
Eastern and great cities like Tampa, Florida, Youngstown, Ohio, and
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. We'd love to join you on the
drive to work live, but we're glad you're here now.
Enjoyed the podcast, by the way, you got an email earlier,
all the way from Anchorage, Alaska. Love your program, Appreciate
(16:44):
your faith and spiritual centering, and enjoy the great insights
delivered with wit, reason and wisdom. This guy should write
our promos, right I listen. I'm k e n I
and Anchorage, Alaska. We should do a live remote from
there in blankets live from an Igloo and then a
lot of stats on flooride and flooride in the water
because we had that story earlier about want to take
(17:05):
care of your teeth? Well, nothing fancy. By the way,
this should be our theme song today with.
Speaker 5 (17:09):
A bictures a thousand.
Speaker 11 (17:13):
Words than.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Because if you redhead. Of course, the line of the
day he said, wait a minute, let me get this straight.
It's okay for Joe Biden to fly all these people
into our country, but it's not okay to fly him
back line of the day. But the picture that paints
a thousand words. Remember all the video shots of the
buses just arriving in towns and unloading people into the community,
(17:37):
having no idea who they are. You know, some of
them drug dealers, some of them rapists, who knows what
they were, just freely coming in, being flown in, bust in,
dispersed throughout the country.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
And then these videos of.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
People shackled, hunched over, getting their head shaved, thrown it
ourselves into our prison. I think that's going to send
a clear message about just open entry into this country.
And there's only really one worst place they could go,
and it's not get mo It beat my old high school,
the cold class Seek which by the way, my high
school had the barbed wire and it was facing in,
(18:15):
which is to suggest that it's to keep you from leaving, right,
not entering. That's to keep you in. Nothing out rory.
I don't think I went to high school. I think
I went to prison. Roy O'Neill our correspondence here first with.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
The good news.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Making the two hundred and fifty four mile journey to
splash down really this afternoon for Central time zone five pm,
six pm Eastern is finally butchered, Sonny, And that's great news.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Yeah, it finally is.
Speaker 10 (18:41):
They got aboard their SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule named Freedom
last night and they'll splashdown, as you said, this afternoon
and then flying back to Houston to meet up with
family members and get those thorough medical checkouts and really
start a pretty long stint of rehabilitation as they try
to get.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
The their sense of balance back.
Speaker 10 (19:02):
And there's this phenomenon where the astronauts get very used
to living in zero G and imagine you have a
pan or a pencil in your hand, and they get
used to just releasing it maybe next to their head,
and it's staying there. They forget that gravity's back and
that things fall. So there really is an adjustment period
as they figure things out like that, And of course
(19:23):
I think they're both looking forward to a good old
fashioned hot.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Shower, which or a meal, a real meal, so let me.
You know, I was just thinking, have you ever done
the Goggle thing? And I know that's got a name
and I can never remember it. But the Apple Goggle thing,
you do it? Yeah, yeah, it's a twenty minute presentation.
If you've never done it, you really need to do it.
It is amazing. I think that's the ultimate goal. Instead
of us all looking at a phone, they want us
just sit in the house all day living a virtual
(19:48):
life rather than a real life. But it is amazing
how fast you get addicted to it because in that
it scans your eyes and if I want to open something,
I just look at it and then.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
I just click my thing together.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Well, you do that for twenty minutes, and you'd be
surprised you go back to real life and you're trying
to look at things and click it. I can't imagine
after nine months. And then the other question I was
gonna ask you, I mean, just feeling gravity. I mean
I would imagine it would feel heavy on your legs,
wouldn't it.
Speaker 10 (20:16):
I know they've been working out, but yeah, no, no,
it's all a struggle. And then again, you know, having
the inner ear try to get balanced again and feeling
the gravity effects there. We heard from Sonny Williams last
week who said she's just looking forward to weather again.
You know, it's been seventy five seventy five degrees and
forty percent humidity for nine months. She's ready for a
(20:38):
little something something when she goes to walk the dogs.
And you know, some of these folks will bounce back
faster than others. Again, it says you'll see there a
bit wobbly for the most part, and typically they're over
that in a matter of hours, if not a couple
of days, although some of the longer term effects of
the muscle weakness will take longer to recover from. And
(20:59):
right now they are a bit taller, so they can
enjoy probably three quarters of an inch of extra height
until the pressure on their spine it takes effect again
and gets them back down to size.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
So I'd be still five nine if I was in space.
And Sonny don't have to get used to seeing her
hair down because it hasn't been down in a long time.
All right, roy O'Neil joining us all things NASA now,
you recommend that we watch it on the NASA channel,
although I would think MSNBC, CNN, Fox would carry that
live wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
They, Yeah, most of them will all be.
Speaker 10 (21:26):
Yeah, But I'd rather watch the NASA channel than the
networks because the NASA channel folks know what they're talking about.
The networks don't, rather than the hair dressed hairsprayed people. Yeah,
so watch the NASA fee plus it's a bit more nerdy.
You can watch it on YouTube as well and watch
the comments go by and be horrified by how ignorant
Americans are.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
That's another fun way to do it, all right.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
Final is the new national poll that shows the favorability
of the Democrat Party in an all time low. I
believe it was twenty nine percent with CNN, twenty seven
percent with NBC. That shows a reality and a trend.
And they've been kind of splitting up into two groups.
Those that want to take the hard left line and
keep going and keep obstructing, and a new sensible Democrat
(22:07):
party that's wanting to be reasonable has been reasonable, has
been formed.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
But what do you make of these polls?
Speaker 10 (22:13):
Yeah, I also think it's March of the of a
of an off year, right, I mean, I think because
we're seeing a big fallout in support among Democrats themselves.
But this is the time of year. You can do that, right.
You want them to all fall in line by November
of some even number year. And right now I think
they are still in a bit of self loathing as
they figure out where are we going And the fact
(22:34):
that the party lacks both a message and a messenger
is a big problem. But I don't think it's a
it's something to hit the panic button on again in
March of an off year.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
No, And I think you know, you know, it's like
one of my listeners said, can you imagine a ticket
with Crockett and AOC.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Well, no, that will be put out there.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
You'll get the crazy left and then they'll come with
something more reasonable, reasonable like Wes Moore and Ronnie Manuel,
and they'll look all the better for the craziness. But
it is kind of you know, the obstructionist and not
obstructing enough versus reasonable.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
I mean things like the border.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
There are certain issues transgender men in women's support, you know,
some things that they probably should embrace, but they got
time to do it. As your point, but this is
a new low. They've never been this low, and they've
never lacked the next in line. I mean, right now,
AOC is the leader in the latest twenty twenty eight pole.
I say leader no opinion is the far and away
leader at twenty six percent. But that just suggests there
(23:31):
is no big air apparent waiting in the wings, and
they're still searching for a messenger and a message.
Speaker 10 (23:36):
Yeah, and I think it's Look, the Republican Party had
the same disarray, not to this level, of course, but
you know.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
When they pivoted from the.
Speaker 10 (23:43):
Jeb Bush Mitt Romney Republican to the Donald Trump kind
of Republican. Two very different people and very different messages.
And you know, we'll see which how the party wants
to reinvent itself.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Rory, thank you at ease. We'll be watching the splash
down at the same time. We'll talk about it tomorrow.
Thanks for joining us. R John going to join us.
In just a few minutes. President Trump is scheduled to
talk to Vladimir Putin about the Ukraine Russian War. Pretty big, heavy,
initial conversation directly with Vladimir Putin. We'll get the preview
with John Decker, our White House correspondent straight ahead.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
All right, if you're just.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
Waking up, Let's hope it's a little more exciting than
the Epstein file. Release. President Trump says look forward to
eighty thousand of the assassination files on JFK being released
today and expected to be unredacted.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Speaking while touring the Kennedy Center, Trump said around eighty
thousand pages will be released.
Speaker 6 (24:34):
Have instructed my people better responsible. Lots of different people
put together by Chelsea Gabbert.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
The President said a lot of Americans have been asking
for this for a long time. Kennedy was assassinated in
Dallas in nineteen sixty three.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Meanwhile, President Trump yesterday ended Secret Service protection for former
President Joe Biden, son Hunter, and daughter Ashley.
Speaker 8 (25:01):
Trump called the number of people assigned to their detail
ridiculous and said their protection would be revoked immediately.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Under federal law.
Speaker 8 (25:09):
Ex presidents and their spouses receive lifelong Secret Service protection. However,
their children are only guaranteed that protection if.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
They were under the age of sixteen. I'm Mark Midfield.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Israel struck the Gaza Strip area targets were hamas with
extensive air strikes. Some might say that looked like the
gates of Hell opening up, but that's nothing compared to
what they're warning. If you don't start releasing the hostages.
We're going to open the gates of hell wide. Meanwhile,
Elon Musk says magic money computers they're giving away tax
(25:40):
payer funds in the billions well.
Speaker 9 (25:43):
Appearing on the podcast Verdict with Ted Cruz, the tech
billionaire says the Department of Government Efficiency hasn't covered eighty
percent wasist and twenty percent fraud.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
So a lot of.
Speaker 5 (25:53):
Payments going out of Treasury that had no payment code
and no explanation for the payment.
Speaker 9 (26:00):
Says there are billions being paid to nonprofits that clearly
have a political agenda. He also claims there are our
government contracts still being paid out to the private sector
that were actually canceled years ago. I'm tammaged forr HEO.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Keeping teeth healthy doesn't require fancy gadget's just the basics.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
That includes brushing your teeth twice a day and flossing.
The Health Policy Institute says it's also important to get
regular dental checkups and cleanings. Twice a year is what's recommended.
The American Dental Association says fluoride matters because it has
the power to fight cavities and tooth decay. They recommend
fluoride toothpaste and using a toothbrush with soft rather than
(26:39):
hard bristles to avoid scraping off tooth enamel or damaging
your gums.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
I'm Brian should.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
And sparts on the NBA hardwood pistols. Big over the Pelicans,
and when I say big, that comes from the Latin
word meaning by over forty. Grizz lost by ten to
the King's Sons, by forty over the Raptors, and the
Blazers beat the Whiz one twelve ninety seven Lakers with
a win over the Spurs one twenty five one oh nine.
On the ice, the Lightning beat the Flyers to nothing,
(27:07):
and the Kings lost to Minnesota three to one. And
that's your top five stories of the day. Hey, what's
your plan if you ever face the situation that demands
personal protection? I got a plan. Meet the burna less
lethal launcher. Now I know when I say that, you
think of somebody like breaking into your home or trying
to attack you on the street. But an avid hiker,
(27:27):
Jason packed his Burner on an evening hike with his family.
Then they had a close encounter with a mountain lion
armed with the kinetic ammunition. Jason was able to deter
the animal and protect his family from what would have
been a very deadly situation. You just never know when
a burner is going to save a life. Legal in
all fifty states, no permits or background checks are needed.
(27:48):
The burner launcher has powerful deterrence like tear gas and
kinetic rounds with a sixty foot range and one shot
can incapacitate an attacker for up to forty minutes.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
And with BURNA you save two lives.

This is your morning show with Michael del Trono.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
We're here to serve you. This is your morning show.
I'm Michael del Jarno. Jefferys got the sound. Red's keeping
an eye on the content and if you're just waking up,
damage assessments continue across parts of the South and the
Midwest hit by those deadly storms over the past weekend.
That death toll has now risen to forty and expected
to go even higher. Files related to the assassination of
former President John F. Kennedy are expected to be released today.
(28:51):
Hopefully they're more telling than the Epstein files and President
Trump with a big talk on the way with Vladimir Putin. Also,
I watch a lot of documentaries and I like, you know,
a I find them entertaining, very informative. I saw one
on Boeing, and you know, only because we're all kind
of looking at Boeing kind of frowning with the seven
(29:14):
thirty seven Max and its failures. It was the history
of the seven forty seven, which, by the way, we
the only vacation other than a dude ranch that we
took my entire childhood was to Los Angeles to go
to Universal Studios, San Diego Zoo and then Disneyland and
all that. I didn't realize we were flying a seven
(29:35):
forty seven about three years after it was created. But
what was fascinating about this Boeing bet everything on the
on the seven forty seven. If the seven forty seven
didn't work. They were going to go bankrupt and almost
did even though it did work, and it was no
easy journey to create something that big that could fly.
But they were also trying to compete with France who
(29:55):
was building the Concord on a supersonic that they thought
was really the future of flying, that everything would be
based on how quick you could get there, and the
seven forty seven they just expected to end up being
a cargo plane.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Oh how wrong they were. And know how they got
in the air and the people that helped get in
the air.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Was an absolutely fascinating I think I was on Prime
if I'm correct, not Netflix, but if you ever see
that documentary on the making of the seven forty seven,
it was absolutely fascinating.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
It's a pick to click.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
Speaking of fascinating, all right, so twice you got two questions.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
Can do you have the two way? Can?
Speaker 2 (30:28):
Will he hear this if you play it? Yeah, he'll
hear this. Here you go, listen closely. Jonathan Decker.
Speaker 5 (30:33):
Yesterday, Caroline Levit gave Jonathan Decker two questions.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Maybe we should be calling him Jonathan.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
All right, so what's the deal, John? Are you Jonathan now?
Why does she have like a different name for you?
Speaker 11 (30:49):
Did she say John?
Speaker 5 (30:50):
She said Joy?
Speaker 11 (30:52):
Did she miss?
Speaker 5 (30:54):
I just thought she said John. Well that's my full name.
We've known each other for a few years. You know,
maybe she just felt me like being formal. Yesterday with me,
I had a very good question.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
So your friends call you Jonathan, and then cold strangers
me we just say John.
Speaker 5 (31:11):
No, No, I go by John with just about everybody, family,
close family, They.
Speaker 11 (31:17):
Actually call me Johnny.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
So you know that's something that I've had with me
in my entire life.
Speaker 11 (31:22):
But Jonathan, I'm fine with that too.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
Whatever you want to call me. All right, here's Johnny.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
John Decker is the White House correspondent. He's covered eight presidents.
Now he's covering Trump. These are big talks of Vladimir
Puin today, A lot on the line, a lot on
the line.
Speaker 5 (31:37):
You know, Ukraine has already agreed to that thirty day
cease fire.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
They agreed to that thirty.
Speaker 5 (31:42):
Day ceased fire last week when Ukrainian officials met with
US officials in Saudi Arabia. And I asked the president
yesterday whether Russia would agree to this thirty day cease fire,
and he told me they would Those were his words.
Speaker 11 (31:56):
So that's the President being very optimistic. But perhaps he
had as an insight.
Speaker 5 (32:01):
Into President Putin that we don't know about.
Speaker 11 (32:04):
But in any case, that meeting that will take place,
that phone call that will.
Speaker 5 (32:07):
Take place between the President and President Putin happening this morning.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
You could he hear in the President's voice how serious
this talk is going to be. Oh, absolutely, I'm thinking.
And this is just me, John.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
I know you don't do opinion, but this war is
not going well for Vladimir Putin and I don't see
anything that's going to change that. So the endgame isn't
going to be victory. I sense he's looking for a
way out and wants to get as much as he
can on the way out.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Now, what is a short thing to.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Save phase and not everything that would jeopardize the other
side of this, which is Ukraine.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
That's the tough ground the President's got.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
To find, and I guess a lot of it may
depend on how Putin is reading him.
Speaker 11 (32:46):
Well, that's right, you know.
Speaker 5 (32:47):
I think what the administration's perspective is is, let's try
to get this thirty day ceasefire first before we can talk.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
About ending the war. Altogether.
Speaker 5 (32:56):
But as you know, President Putin Russia has not indicated
in any way through things they've said, actions they've taken,
that they want to end this war anytime soon.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
What does that mean?
Speaker 2 (33:08):
That means that me and the President at this moment
are far more optimistic and you're a little suspicious of
how they're going to bridge this game. I don't know,
but I think you know, I can't imagine that Vladimir
Putin doesn't realize he's dealing with a different president than
Joe Biden. He may be sensing with the President, Yeah,
(33:30):
I agree, he may be sensing he's sick of writing
blank checks to Ukraine and may want to, you know,
weasel as much as he can do. We know what
the because the President wouldn't elaborate on him yesterday. But
I think we got a pretty good idea what the
sticking points are to review them for the listeners.
Speaker 5 (33:46):
Well, for Russia they are adamantly opposed, and it sounds
like the US is as well, the President is as
well to NATO membership for Ukraine. What the President said
on his way back from mar al Lago over the
weekend on Air Force one that this conversation is about
essentially carving up Ukraine. It's dividing assets, and that's an
(34:08):
interesting conversation.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
I don't know if President.
Speaker 5 (34:10):
Zelinsky has essentially authorized President Trump to divide up Ukraine's
sovereign territory, but that's what the President indicated on.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
His right back to Washington over the weekend.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
And Ukraine's okay with that, as long as you provide
assurance that you are going to the United States is
going to have our back and secure this so we
don't get a deal and then two years later we
end up in the same place.
Speaker 11 (34:33):
So I think that's exactly right.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
Yes, I think there's a way to do with that.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
And then I think the minerals are something the President's
very interesting and in getting some payback for the money
we've invested, that's right. And where the economy is headed,
what would be the one thing you think Vladimir Putin
is going to try to hold to that is impossible
to grant.
Speaker 11 (34:52):
That's a very good question, you know. I think it's
just a matter of which territory, what part of.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
Ukraine he wants to hold on to.
Speaker 11 (34:59):
And I think that will certainly be a sticking point.
Speaker 1 (35:01):
As it relates to ending this war, John Jonathan or Johnny.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
Either way you get a great debrief in White House
correspondent and US.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
Supreme Court bar attorney.
Speaker 2 (35:12):
Thanks for joining us, John, You have a great day
and look forward to everything you're going to cover today.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
with Michael nhild Joano
Hi, It's Michael.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
Your morning show airs live five to eight am Central,
six to nine Eastern in great cities like Memphis, Tennessee, Telsa, Oklahoma, Sacramento, California.
We'd love to be a part of your morning routine,
but we're happier here now. Enjoyed the podcast, Well two three,
starting your morning off right, A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding because we're in the studio.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
This is your morning Show with Michael o'deil chorn.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Seven minutes after the hour, Welcome to Tuesday, March the eighteenth.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Ye have out No.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Twenty twenty five. Jeffrey controlling the sounds Red. Keep an
eye on the content. I'm your humble host, serving you,
Michael del Jorno. Jeffrey just ask, can we call Stephen Booch?
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (00:45):
I said, Well, he had a pretty esteemed military career.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Let's say you get found you in about one punch,
but sure, take a shot at it.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Call him Booch.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
He's a senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation, one of
the finest military and foreign policy minds in America today.
Stephen Boochie filled again for James Carafan, who I believe
is in India. I don't know what the time is
in India, but we thought it was best not to
disturb him. Good morning, Steven, Steven, You've got a lot
of heavy lifting today.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
I will do the best I can and guess you
can call me boch.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
That's what I can call my whole life.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
See, they all called you.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
How how many years in the military were you.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
Uh, twenty eight years on active duty or before that
at West Point and then stayed as a civilian with
do D for another four and a half years after
I retired.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
It's been your It's been your life.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Thank you for your service to me and my family
and my extended family over that course of time. You're
now a senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation, one of
the largest thing tanks in the world. All right, let's
start with these conversations today President Trump and Vladimir Putin. Well,
I could sense and Donald Trump's voice the weight and
the seriousness of this. This is this is a pretty
heavy conversation today. What might they be saying if we
(02:00):
flies on the wall.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
Well, I'm hoping what they're going to say is that
President Trump will give Putin a enough assurance that it
would be in his benefit to get on board with
these talks and start the process of coming to some
sort of agreement that will stop the killing. Now, whether
(02:26):
that will happen or not, a lot of it depends
on Putin, whether he's willing to try and push Trump
to see if he can pull a Biden on him,
or to try and extend the time so he can
do more of the stuff that he might want to do.
But I think he's going to find that President Trump,
(02:47):
number one, is not interested in waiting or pushing this
thing out at all. And two he is not President Biden.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
And I think, don't you, Stephen. I hope so.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
But you know, bullies tend to catch the waters. They
want to try and get a little more. Maybe this
is their last shot. Let's see what we can get.
But I don't think it's going to work. I think
President Trump understands him and desperately wants peace, but he's
(03:21):
not going to give away the store because he thinks
Vladimir Putin's you know.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
His bud.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Yeah, well no, And that's narrative. And I doubt Vladimir
Putin's believing narrative. He may be taking it as a
sign that the President's not completely behind Ukraine completely beyond
being a blank check for them. But I think that's
some of the tough things the president was doing to
get the Ukrainian team on board. To now get Putin
(03:47):
on board, I guess I'm working with this assumption. Look,
if I'm Vladimir Putin, this war didn't go well, you
didn't win in two weeks. You're not winning. There's nothing
that suggests you're going to start winning or ever be
able to complete this end game. He's probably looking for
a way to save face and get as much as
he can on the way out. Now we're between as
(04:08):
much as we can and what reasonably we can give
is the middle ground. I think that's where we're headed.
Probably the question is can we get there?
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Yeah? I agree with that analysis completely. And you know,
we'll see. This is going to be a really, really
important phone call. It's not going to be a social call.
This is going to be business one hundred percent, and
we'll see where it goes. President Trump's proven himself to
be pretty effective in this kind of scenario.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
All Right, We're talking with Stephen Bouchie, Senior Fellow all
Things Military Foreign Policy at the Heritage Foundation Israel. Of course,
obviously the ceasefire is over. Not only did they do
massive extensive air strikes on Hamas targets, we did hoothy
targets recently the US did, and now here comes the
(04:57):
Israel strikes. There is how many times have we Sai
even there's just no future in Israel or America's mind
and many other Allied nations for Hamas to have a
future and whatever the Gaza becomes. But they haven't been
releasing the prisoners. And by the way, I would have
called what they did on Sunday the gates of Hell opening,
(05:18):
but apparently no, that's just our extensive air strikes. If
you don't start releasing, you know, the hostages, now here
come the gates of hell. This is obviously going into
I don't know, it's a slight step back, but I
think it's a necessary thing to get their attention again.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
Right, Yeah, they are foolishly they being Hamas or foolishly
believing whoever is advising them that.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
No, no, hang in there.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
You know the Americans will back off that, you know, yeah,
who really wants the hostages? We can really hold them
to it and squeeze some more out of them. And
I think the patience is over, and we saw the
beginnings of it with you.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
I don't think this is the it. There's there's a lot.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
More that can come if Hamas doesn't wake up and
start playing ball here and with the civilized world, because
I think everybody's losing their patience with them, other than
the crazies who think Hamas are the good guys. Uh,
you know, the rest of the normal world is going
look that these guys need to be removed from the
(06:24):
playing board.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
So obviously the hoothy targets was a message not just
to the houthies but to Iran that funds them. Uh this,
you know, we used to say a lot. You know,
maybe it's because they don't have any left alive, but
everybody from them, from Donald Trump to let to be
being done. Yeah who they've kind of acknowledged we know
(06:48):
most of them are dead, but dead or alive released them.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
So what's Hamas's play now?
Speaker 4 (06:55):
Yeah, I don't I didn't think they had any left before,
but they're they're trying to literally using squeezing blood out
of the rock. But it's not working for him and
they need to stop. They need to release the remains.
If you know, Lord Willing, there's anybody left alive, get
them out. But you know, Hamas has shown itself that
(07:18):
they have been torturing these people. They have been doing
horrendous things, executing babies.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
You know, it's just beyond the pail.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
And if Hamas thinks they're winning points by doing this,
they're even more twisted than I thought. The world is
just shaking its head, going, okay, look, we've been carrying
water for these clowns for a long time and they're
not helping us.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
So what's now.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
The rest of the world is seeing why the Arab
world doesn't want the Palestinians, particularly Hamas in their countries.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Well, you just want where I was going. The Arab world,
I see that as the end game. I don't think
Donald Trump really wants to have what was he going
to call Gaza if the US owned it, it was going
to be the the Mara Gazo.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Well that's the that's the meme.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
But he was calling it something of the Middle East.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
I can't remember what his expression. I don't think that's
his desire.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
I think his desire is to get the Arab world
involved in paying for the rebuild and making sure with
the vested interest, crazy terrorist threads don't ever have control. Again,
I think that's where they're trying to get. We just
can't get beyond the Hamas phase, is what it appears
to me.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
What do you think?
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Yeah, I agree completely they You know, President Trump loves
to throw these crazy ideas out and everybody the left
just goes nuts. And it's like, look, this is negotiating.
He's trying to get these people to move in a
direction he wants him to move. So he says these
things that everybody's well, you can't ever say that. Oh
(08:56):
yes you can, and it moves the ball, so, you know,
more power to him. But it's we got a you know,
Hamos is not reasonable, it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Are the Houthies any more reasonable? And how much?
Speaker 2 (09:10):
What did you make of that? And are closing moments?
You know, Marco Rubio is a great, great spokesperson, and
he's saying, no, we can't have them firing on our
ships or on commercial ships.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
They can't be disrupting shipping.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
This was a target at Houthy's, but I think this
was a message for RN too.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
Yeah. Oh absolutely, Look, the Hoosies didn't build any of
those missiles. They're shooting at people. No, you know, they
don't manufacture those in the backyards of Sanah. Those all
came from Iran. And personally, I think we should keep
hitting the houthies. We need to start hitting some more
Iranian targets so they understand that we understand the genesis
(09:55):
of this problem. And it's in Tehran, it's not in Yemen.
But we're just not quite at that point yet, but
I'll be willing to bet we'll end up getting there soon.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Stephen Bouchi has always not a pinch hitter for James Carafano,
a treasured expert and guests. Thank you for your service
to our country, and thank you for your service to
our listeners today. Steven, God bless you have a great week.

Yesterday at the nursing home and an attempt to have
fun with my mother seriously return to old memories as
(11:23):
well as get a little occupational therapy. I brought a
deck of cards and we played spades. Nothing has changed.
I walloped her five sixty eight to two twenty four,
and then I left the board out of her reach
so that everybody caring for her can see that she was.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Walloped by the champ. Champ beats chump five sixty eight
to two twenty four.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
A very embarrassing moment for Joan Uva Camuso del Jardo
continuing coverage throughout the day, as we may play again
later after golf.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
All right, Top five stories the day.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
If you're just waking up, President try says, you can
look forward to the big file dump.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Now.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
There are two hundred and forty thousand documents concerning the
JFK assassination that have been found, eighty thousand of which
will be released today and much, the President says unredacted.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
Speaking while touring the Kennedy Center, Trump said around eighty
thousand pages will be released.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Have instructed my people.
Speaker 6 (12:22):
That are responsible, Lots of different people put together by
Chelsea Gavert.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
The President said, a lot of Americans have been asking
for this for a long time. Kennedy was assassinated in
Dallas in nineteen sixty three.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
I'm Brian Schuck, said up.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
An Larady leader Chucky Schumer has to postpone his book
tour why security concerns.
Speaker 7 (12:45):
It comes after the New York lawmaker voted to advance
a House Republican led funding package. A spokesperson for his
tour said it would be rescheduled over security concerns. Schumer
was scheduled to visit Washington, d C. Baltimore, Philadelphia, and
New York City to promote his new book, Semitism in America.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
A warning. I'm he's a tailor. I think they look
around at their constituents and say, I believe we've created
a monster.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
President Trump claims some of the partons issued by former
President Biden, and I'm thinking of Fauci, I'm thinking of Hunter,
I'm thinking of Biden's brother. They're exposed. They may be
invalid because of auto pen.
Speaker 8 (13:19):
In a truth social post early Monday, Trump said he
was declaring Biden's pardons for members of the January the
sixth House Select Committee void, vacant, and have no further
force or effect because of the fact that they were
done by autopen. He also alleged Biden had no knowledge
about the pardons. Trump went on to say House members
who served on the committee should fully understand that they
are a subject to investigation at the highest.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
Level by Mark Mayfield. Well, so much for the luck
of the Irish. The powerball jackpot is soaring. There was
no grand prize winner on Saint Patty's Day.
Speaker 9 (13:50):
The next drawing is set for Wednesday, and when I'll
be worth at least four hundred and sixteen million dollars.
The cash option on that, in case you're wondering, works
out to just over one hundred and ninety four million.
Yesterday's big drawing, there wasn't a complete bust. Two tickets,
one sold in Colorado and the other in Pennsylvania, are
good for a million dollars each. I'm tammage rhome.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Again. That's the voice of Jesse Colin Young, the front
man of the Young Bloods, dead at the age of
eighty three. This publicist says Young died at his home
in Aiken, South Carolina, where we actually have a listener
in Achin, South Carolina that called in a new him.
He was the lead vocalist play bass on that sixties
County cod Can't Do counterculture sixties counterculture hit Get Together.
(14:37):
The song reached number five on the Billboard Hot one
hundred and nineteen sixty nine. As for Billie Eilish, she
took home Album of the Year at the iHeart Music Awards.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Loved this album with all my heart. I feel very
proud of it and very protective over it, and the
fact that people care about it at all is just
a dream.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
She accepted the iHeart Award on behalf of her brother Phineas,
who helped make the album Me Hard and Soft, debuted
at number two on the Billboard two hundred chart and
gave Eilish the biggest opening week of her career to date.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
We thought, well, it.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Has to be the biggest ever, right, I mean, who
debuts at number one? Then we did some research found
out eighty three songs have debuted at number one. Now,
when we went through that list, and we spent far
too much time going through that list, we found most
of them are from the download era. Why are you
laughing at me? Red, You're sneaky today. There's something up
(15:30):
with you. We spent too much time.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
You're the one that researched it.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
I didn't.
Speaker 10 (15:37):
I would have just left it at I can't imagine anybody.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Ever was number one on their debut week.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
I think most impressive is probably Celine, Dion, Elton John
and Michael Jackson who did it in a music store era.
But yeah, there were eighty three songs that debuted at
number one. We had Your Morning show did not Basketball
starts to out tonight, True TV eight o'clock North Carolina,
The Tarerhels in San Diego State ESPM with the doubleheader
Georgia Tech, Jacksonville, State, cal State Northridge and Stanford as
(16:06):
the play in games begin in March Badness.
Speaker 6 (16:10):
I'm Joe Big and Tampa and my morning show is
your Morning show with Michael del Jorono.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Hi, It's Michael. Your Morning show could be heard live
weekday mornings five to eight am six to nine am
Eastern and great cities like Tampa, Florida, Youngstown, Ohio, and
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. We'd love to join you on the
drive to work live, but we're glad you're here now.
Enjoyed the podcast, by the way, you got an email earlier,
all the way from Anchorage, Alaska. Love your program, Appreciate
(16:44):
your faith and spiritual centering, and enjoy the great insights
delivered with wit, reason and wisdom. This guy should write
our promos, right I listen. I'm k e n I
and Anchorage, Alaska. We should do a live remote from
there in blankets live from an Igloo and then a
lot of stats on flooride and flooride in the water
because we had that story earlier about want to take
(17:05):
care of your teeth? Well, nothing fancy. By the way,
this should be our theme song today with.
Speaker 5 (17:09):
A bictures a thousand.
Speaker 11 (17:13):
Words than.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Because if you redhead. Of course, the line of the
day he said, wait a minute, let me get this straight.
It's okay for Joe Biden to fly all these people
into our country, but it's not okay to fly him
back line of the day. But the picture that paints
a thousand words. Remember all the video shots of the
buses just arriving in towns and unloading people into the community,
(17:37):
having no idea who they are. You know, some of
them drug dealers, some of them rapists, who knows what
they were, just freely coming in, being flown in, bust in,
dispersed throughout the country.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
And then these videos of.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
People shackled, hunched over, getting their head shaved, thrown it
ourselves into our prison. I think that's going to send
a clear message about just open entry into this country.
And there's only really one worst place they could go,
and it's not get mo It beat my old high school,
the cold class Seek which by the way, my high
school had the barbed wire and it was facing in,
(18:15):
which is to suggest that it's to keep you from leaving, right,
not entering. That's to keep you in. Nothing out rory.
I don't think I went to high school. I think
I went to prison. Roy O'Neill our correspondence here first with.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
The good news.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Making the two hundred and fifty four mile journey to
splash down really this afternoon for Central time zone five pm,
six pm Eastern is finally butchered, Sonny, And that's great news.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Yeah, it finally is.
Speaker 10 (18:41):
They got aboard their SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule named Freedom
last night and they'll splashdown, as you said, this afternoon
and then flying back to Houston to meet up with
family members and get those thorough medical checkouts and really
start a pretty long stint of rehabilitation as they try
to get.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
The their sense of balance back.
Speaker 10 (19:02):
And there's this phenomenon where the astronauts get very used
to living in zero G and imagine you have a
pan or a pencil in your hand, and they get
used to just releasing it maybe next to their head,
and it's staying there. They forget that gravity's back and
that things fall. So there really is an adjustment period
as they figure things out like that, And of course
(19:23):
I think they're both looking forward to a good old
fashioned hot.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Shower, which or a meal, a real meal, so let me.
You know, I was just thinking, have you ever done
the Goggle thing? And I know that's got a name
and I can never remember it. But the Apple Goggle thing,
you do it? Yeah, yeah, it's a twenty minute presentation.
If you've never done it, you really need to do it.
It is amazing. I think that's the ultimate goal. Instead
of us all looking at a phone, they want us
just sit in the house all day living a virtual
(19:48):
life rather than a real life. But it is amazing
how fast you get addicted to it because in that
it scans your eyes and if I want to open something,
I just look at it and then.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
I just click my thing together.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Well, you do that for twenty minutes, and you'd be
surprised you go back to real life and you're trying
to look at things and click it. I can't imagine
after nine months. And then the other question I was
gonna ask you, I mean, just feeling gravity. I mean
I would imagine it would feel heavy on your legs,
wouldn't it.
Speaker 10 (20:16):
I know they've been working out, but yeah, no, no,
it's all a struggle. And then again, you know, having
the inner ear try to get balanced again and feeling
the gravity effects there. We heard from Sonny Williams last
week who said she's just looking forward to weather again.
You know, it's been seventy five seventy five degrees and
forty percent humidity for nine months. She's ready for a
(20:38):
little something something when she goes to walk the dogs.
And you know, some of these folks will bounce back
faster than others. Again, it says you'll see there a
bit wobbly for the most part, and typically they're over
that in a matter of hours, if not a couple
of days, although some of the longer term effects of
the muscle weakness will take longer to recover from. And
(20:59):
right now they are a bit taller, so they can
enjoy probably three quarters of an inch of extra height
until the pressure on their spine it takes effect again
and gets them back down to size.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
So I'd be still five nine if I was in space.
And Sonny don't have to get used to seeing her
hair down because it hasn't been down in a long time.
All right, roy O'Neil joining us all things NASA now,
you recommend that we watch it on the NASA channel,
although I would think MSNBC, CNN, Fox would carry that
live wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
They, Yeah, most of them will all be.
Speaker 10 (21:26):
Yeah, But I'd rather watch the NASA channel than the
networks because the NASA channel folks know what they're talking about.
The networks don't, rather than the hair dressed hairsprayed people. Yeah,
so watch the NASA fee plus it's a bit more nerdy.
You can watch it on YouTube as well and watch
the comments go by and be horrified by how ignorant
Americans are.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
That's another fun way to do it, all right.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
Final is the new national poll that shows the favorability
of the Democrat Party in an all time low. I
believe it was twenty nine percent with CNN, twenty seven
percent with NBC. That shows a reality and a trend.
And they've been kind of splitting up into two groups.
Those that want to take the hard left line and
keep going and keep obstructing, and a new sensible Democrat
(22:07):
party that's wanting to be reasonable has been reasonable, has
been formed.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
But what do you make of these polls?
Speaker 10 (22:13):
Yeah, I also think it's March of the of a
of an off year, right, I mean, I think because
we're seeing a big fallout in support among Democrats themselves.
But this is the time of year. You can do that, right.
You want them to all fall in line by November
of some even number year. And right now I think
they are still in a bit of self loathing as
they figure out where are we going And the fact
(22:34):
that the party lacks both a message and a messenger
is a big problem. But I don't think it's a
it's something to hit the panic button on again in
March of an off year.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
No, And I think you know, you know, it's like
one of my listeners said, can you imagine a ticket
with Crockett and AOC.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Well, no, that will be put out there.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
You'll get the crazy left and then they'll come with
something more reasonable, reasonable like Wes Moore and Ronnie Manuel,
and they'll look all the better for the craziness. But
it is kind of you know, the obstructionist and not
obstructing enough versus reasonable.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
I mean things like the border.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
There are certain issues transgender men in women's support, you know,
some things that they probably should embrace, but they got
time to do it. As your point, but this is
a new low. They've never been this low, and they've
never lacked the next in line. I mean, right now,
AOC is the leader in the latest twenty twenty eight pole.
I say leader no opinion is the far and away
leader at twenty six percent. But that just suggests there
(23:31):
is no big air apparent waiting in the wings, and
they're still searching for a messenger and a message.
Speaker 10 (23:36):
Yeah, and I think it's Look, the Republican Party had
the same disarray, not to this level, of course, but
you know.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
When they pivoted from the.
Speaker 10 (23:43):
Jeb Bush Mitt Romney Republican to the Donald Trump kind
of Republican. Two very different people and very different messages.
And you know, we'll see which how the party wants
to reinvent itself.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Rory, thank you at ease. We'll be watching the splash
down at the same time. We'll talk about it tomorrow.
Thanks for joining us. R John going to join us.
In just a few minutes. President Trump is scheduled to
talk to Vladimir Putin about the Ukraine Russian War. Pretty big, heavy,
initial conversation directly with Vladimir Putin. We'll get the preview
with John Decker, our White House correspondent straight ahead.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
All right, if you're just.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
Waking up, Let's hope it's a little more exciting than
the Epstein file. Release. President Trump says look forward to
eighty thousand of the assassination files on JFK being released
today and expected to be unredacted.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Speaking while touring the Kennedy Center, Trump said around eighty
thousand pages will be released.
Speaker 6 (24:34):
Have instructed my people better responsible. Lots of different people
put together by Chelsea Gabbert.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
The President said a lot of Americans have been asking
for this for a long time. Kennedy was assassinated in
Dallas in nineteen sixty three.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Meanwhile, President Trump yesterday ended Secret Service protection for former
President Joe Biden, son Hunter, and daughter Ashley.
Speaker 8 (25:01):
Trump called the number of people assigned to their detail
ridiculous and said their protection would be revoked immediately.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Under federal law.
Speaker 8 (25:09):
Ex presidents and their spouses receive lifelong Secret Service protection. However,
their children are only guaranteed that protection if.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
They were under the age of sixteen. I'm Mark Midfield.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Israel struck the Gaza Strip area targets were hamas with
extensive air strikes. Some might say that looked like the
gates of Hell opening up, but that's nothing compared to
what they're warning. If you don't start releasing the hostages.
We're going to open the gates of hell wide. Meanwhile,
Elon Musk says magic money computers they're giving away tax
(25:40):
payer funds in the billions well.
Speaker 9 (25:43):
Appearing on the podcast Verdict with Ted Cruz, the tech
billionaire says the Department of Government Efficiency hasn't covered eighty
percent wasist and twenty percent fraud.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
So a lot of.
Speaker 5 (25:53):
Payments going out of Treasury that had no payment code
and no explanation for the payment.
Speaker 9 (26:00):
Says there are billions being paid to nonprofits that clearly
have a political agenda. He also claims there are our
government contracts still being paid out to the private sector
that were actually canceled years ago. I'm tammaged forr HEO.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Keeping teeth healthy doesn't require fancy gadget's just the basics.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
That includes brushing your teeth twice a day and flossing.
The Health Policy Institute says it's also important to get
regular dental checkups and cleanings. Twice a year is what's recommended.
The American Dental Association says fluoride matters because it has
the power to fight cavities and tooth decay. They recommend
fluoride toothpaste and using a toothbrush with soft rather than
(26:39):
hard bristles to avoid scraping off tooth enamel or damaging
your gums.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
I'm Brian should.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
And sparts on the NBA hardwood pistols. Big over the Pelicans,
and when I say big, that comes from the Latin
word meaning by over forty. Grizz lost by ten to
the King's Sons, by forty over the Raptors, and the
Blazers beat the Whiz one twelve ninety seven Lakers with
a win over the Spurs one twenty five one oh nine.
On the ice, the Lightning beat the Flyers to nothing,
(27:07):
and the Kings lost to Minnesota three to one. And
that's your top five stories of the day. Hey, what's
your plan if you ever face the situation that demands
personal protection? I got a plan. Meet the burna less
lethal launcher. Now I know when I say that, you
think of somebody like breaking into your home or trying
to attack you on the street. But an avid hiker,
(27:27):
Jason packed his Burner on an evening hike with his family.
Then they had a close encounter with a mountain lion
armed with the kinetic ammunition. Jason was able to deter
the animal and protect his family from what would have
been a very deadly situation. You just never know when
a burner is going to save a life. Legal in
all fifty states, no permits or background checks are needed.
(27:48):
The burner launcher has powerful deterrence like tear gas and
kinetic rounds with a sixty foot range and one shot
can incapacitate an attacker for up to forty minutes.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
And with BURNA you save two lives.

This is your morning show with Michael del Trono.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
We're here to serve you. This is your morning show.
I'm Michael del Jarno. Jefferys got the sound. Red's keeping
an eye on the content and if you're just waking up,
damage assessments continue across parts of the South and the
Midwest hit by those deadly storms over the past weekend.
That death toll has now risen to forty and expected
to go even higher. Files related to the assassination of
former President John F. Kennedy are expected to be released today.
(28:51):
Hopefully they're more telling than the Epstein files and President
Trump with a big talk on the way with Vladimir Putin. Also,
I watch a lot of documentaries and I like, you know,
a I find them entertaining, very informative. I saw one
on Boeing, and you know, only because we're all kind
of looking at Boeing kind of frowning with the seven
(29:14):
thirty seven Max and its failures. It was the history
of the seven forty seven, which, by the way, we
the only vacation other than a dude ranch that we
took my entire childhood was to Los Angeles to go
to Universal Studios, San Diego Zoo and then Disneyland and
all that. I didn't realize we were flying a seven
(29:35):
forty seven about three years after it was created. But
what was fascinating about this Boeing bet everything on the
on the seven forty seven. If the seven forty seven
didn't work. They were going to go bankrupt and almost
did even though it did work, and it was no
easy journey to create something that big that could fly.
But they were also trying to compete with France who
(29:55):
was building the Concord on a supersonic that they thought
was really the future of flying, that everything would be
based on how quick you could get there, and the
seven forty seven they just expected to end up being
a cargo plane.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Oh how wrong they were. And know how they got
in the air and the people that helped get in
the air.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Was an absolutely fascinating I think I was on Prime
if I'm correct, not Netflix, but if you ever see
that documentary on the making of the seven forty seven,
it was absolutely fascinating.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
It's a pick to click.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
Speaking of fascinating, all right, so twice you got two questions.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
Can do you have the two way? Can?
Speaker 2 (30:28):
Will he hear this if you play it? Yeah, he'll
hear this. Here you go, listen closely. Jonathan Decker.
Speaker 5 (30:33):
Yesterday, Caroline Levit gave Jonathan Decker two questions.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Maybe we should be calling him Jonathan.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
All right, so what's the deal, John? Are you Jonathan now?
Why does she have like a different name for you?
Speaker 11 (30:49):
Did she say John?
Speaker 5 (30:50):
She said Joy?
Speaker 11 (30:52):
Did she miss?
Speaker 5 (30:54):
I just thought she said John. Well that's my full name.
We've known each other for a few years. You know,
maybe she just felt me like being formal. Yesterday with me,
I had a very good question.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
So your friends call you Jonathan, and then cold strangers
me we just say John.
Speaker 5 (31:11):
No, No, I go by John with just about everybody, family,
close family, They.
Speaker 11 (31:17):
Actually call me Johnny.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
So you know that's something that I've had with me
in my entire life.
Speaker 11 (31:22):
But Jonathan, I'm fine with that too.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
Whatever you want to call me. All right, here's Johnny.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
John Decker is the White House correspondent. He's covered eight presidents.
Now he's covering Trump. These are big talks of Vladimir
Puin today, A lot on the line, a lot on
the line.
Speaker 5 (31:37):
You know, Ukraine has already agreed to that thirty day
cease fire.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
They agreed to that thirty.
Speaker 5 (31:42):
Day ceased fire last week when Ukrainian officials met with
US officials in Saudi Arabia. And I asked the president
yesterday whether Russia would agree to this thirty day cease fire,
and he told me they would Those were his words.
Speaker 11 (31:56):
So that's the President being very optimistic. But perhaps he
had as an insight.
Speaker 5 (32:01):
Into President Putin that we don't know about.
Speaker 11 (32:04):
But in any case, that meeting that will take place,
that phone call that will.
Speaker 5 (32:07):
Take place between the President and President Putin happening this morning.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
You could he hear in the President's voice how serious
this talk is going to be. Oh, absolutely, I'm thinking.
And this is just me, John.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
I know you don't do opinion, but this war is
not going well for Vladimir Putin and I don't see
anything that's going to change that. So the endgame isn't
going to be victory. I sense he's looking for a
way out and wants to get as much as he
can on the way out.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Now, what is a short thing to.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Save phase and not everything that would jeopardize the other
side of this, which is Ukraine.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
That's the tough ground the President's got.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
To find, and I guess a lot of it may
depend on how Putin is reading him.
Speaker 11 (32:46):
Well, that's right, you know.
Speaker 5 (32:47):
I think what the administration's perspective is is, let's try
to get this thirty day ceasefire first before we can talk.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
About ending the war. Altogether.
Speaker 5 (32:56):
But as you know, President Putin Russia has not indicated
in any way through things they've said, actions they've taken,
that they want to end this war anytime soon.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
What does that mean?
Speaker 2 (33:08):
That means that me and the President at this moment
are far more optimistic and you're a little suspicious of
how they're going to bridge this game. I don't know,
but I think you know, I can't imagine that Vladimir
Putin doesn't realize he's dealing with a different president than
Joe Biden. He may be sensing with the President, Yeah,
(33:30):
I agree, he may be sensing he's sick of writing
blank checks to Ukraine and may want to, you know,
weasel as much as he can do. We know what
the because the President wouldn't elaborate on him yesterday. But
I think we got a pretty good idea what the
sticking points are to review them for the listeners.
Speaker 5 (33:46):
Well, for Russia they are adamantly opposed, and it sounds
like the US is as well, the President is as
well to NATO membership for Ukraine. What the President said
on his way back from mar al Lago over the
weekend on Air Force one that this conversation is about
essentially carving up Ukraine. It's dividing assets, and that's an
(34:08):
interesting conversation.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
I don't know if President.
Speaker 5 (34:10):
Zelinsky has essentially authorized President Trump to divide up Ukraine's
sovereign territory, but that's what the President indicated on.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
His right back to Washington over the weekend.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
And Ukraine's okay with that, as long as you provide
assurance that you are going to the United States is
going to have our back and secure this so we
don't get a deal and then two years later we
end up in the same place.
Speaker 11 (34:33):
So I think that's exactly right.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
Yes, I think there's a way to do with that.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
And then I think the minerals are something the President's
very interesting and in getting some payback for the money
we've invested, that's right. And where the economy is headed,
what would be the one thing you think Vladimir Putin
is going to try to hold to that is impossible
to grant.
Speaker 11 (34:52):
That's a very good question, you know. I think it's
