Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, It's Michael. Your morning show can be heard live
weekday mornings five to eight am, six to nine am
Eastern in 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.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Two three Starting your morning off right, A new way
of talk, a new way of understanding because we're in Mitgiver,
this is your.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Morning show with Michae o'pel chom. Well, there's no getting
around it. We live in a matrix.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Is the President eliminating public schools? Or is he eliminating
the Department of Education signing an executive order that will
ultimately be decided by Congress to eliminate bureaucracy ways control
from DC and returning that money and power to the states. Well,
ask them, it's Friday with forty seven next hour, the
(00:57):
third hour.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Don't vissit.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
It's not Friday without the present, right if you're just
waking up eight minutes after the hour on this Friday,
March to twenty, first year of our Lord twenty twenty five,
I only have one blemish on my March madness bracket
got a little too cute with UTAs State. But other
than that, I had the Creighton upset, I had this
McNee state upset. Good day, it was a good day.
(01:18):
I'm in the top one percent. That's not bad for
milk or brackets. The Trump administration is moving forward plants
to dismandle the Department of Education. The State Department insists
Russia and Ukraine are just a breath away from a
full cease fire, and a Georgia man held in Afghanistan
for over two years has been released. And what would
be the impact of shutting down or reducing the size
(01:39):
of the Department of Education. It's our top story, and
our national correspondent, Roy O'Neil is all over it. He's
got the numbers in hand. Good morning, Rory. Hey there, Michael,
good morning, Happy Friday.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
You know, there's still a lot that needs to be
figured out here with closing down the Department of Education.
But clearly President Trump is set off on that course
with signing that executive order yesterday essentially telling his Education
Secretary Linda McMahon to put herself out of a job.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
There are several ways to look at this, probably as
you're dismantling something, it would behoove you maybe to just
look at why it was created. And it's funny, rory,
if you go down that rabbit hole, that one's hard
to even get your arms around. There are a lot
of the searches that will pop up that maybe it
was political in origin. So Jimmy Carter was doing it
simply to court the Union vote in a close selection.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Others would say, well.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
We had all these different things being supported from Washington,
and nobody was really keeping an eye on it, so
it was best to form a department. One thing I
think we can all agree on is one it's not
what it was at its formation. It's grown in control,
reach and expense and staffing, and to the results simply
aren't there if you go by test scores. So but
(02:55):
I guess what started is a political football is still
very much a political football.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Is where I was added, well right, you know.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
But still the majority of the education responsibility falls on
the local community, and the Department of Education doesn't get
too involved with elementary or secondary. I mean, I think
their biggest role is in getting funding for people to
get telegrams. In college scholars get their tuition paid for
and student loan programs. That's what I was trying to say,
(03:22):
and get those student loan programs.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
I'm glad it got to Florida. I'm telling you, Roy,
there is something in the air today. I called Josh
Shapiro Ben Shapiro. Jeffrey's been tongue tied saying I called
the Apostle, the Chosen, the Apostle.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
I think there's something in the air. But no. But
you bring up a great point, and.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
That's kind of where I think everybody's not really staying
on the same page because the political narrative doesn't match
the governmental department reality, and so kind of like when
they do scare taxics with Medicare or Medicaid or with
Social Security. You know, I think half of America is
scared of debt. He's not shutting down public education. If anything,
(04:02):
that's going to provide more power closer to the parent
and the teacher and the student, and more money to
flow to these resources that we thought it was doing
all along. But I don't know, I don't know if
we can have conversations like this at America anymore.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
We're so polarized. Well, right, but now you still need
the mechanism.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Right, So that's my question about you know, eliminating the
Department of Education, Like, we still need something then to
manage the student loan program. And Congress has made it
clear that they still want to be able to send
money to school districts that are either in rural or communities.
Especially they send a lot of money out to help
districts with disabled students. So you want that funding mechanism
(04:41):
to still be there, So you know how all that works?
Speaker 3 (04:44):
I think it is the tricky part to figure out.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Yeah, No, that's a great question too, because part of
that deck, that executive order says begin the process of
shutting down the Department of Education while at the same
time making sure all the resources that are needed continue
to flow without distrust. And I'm like, I was like you,
and how does that work? Because some will tell you
in the rabbit hole search that's why it was formed
(05:07):
to begin with, for somebody to keep track of all that. Well, right,
and you know, and we've seen the chainsaw wielding and
clearly you know we need a scalpel at some point
in this process. We saw what already half the staff
essentially has been let go. But now the idea is well,
wait a minute, how do we manage student loans that
are out there? What about painting questions and things like that,
(05:29):
And how do you make sure that those rural poor
districts get the funding that they need, what agency gets
that does it all fall under Health and Human Services?
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Going forward?
Speaker 4 (05:39):
You know, all those are just discussions to happen as
we figure out how to wind this down.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
And Rory is going to be back in the third
hour to talk about our other big story, and that
is what can the FBI, what can the Department of Justice?
What can local law enforcement do to protect against these
Tesla attacks? And is it just starting with Tesla? And
this is just the beginning of the unrest And it's interesting.
I was I was reading a story that Rhet had
sent me and Pam BONDI statement just you know, I
(06:12):
don't want to be dramatic, but it kind of stopped
me dead in my tracks. And it reminded me of
when we did the show on a new Sheriff in
Town and we talked openly about that expression. I don't
know what that means to anybody anymore. I don't know
what it means to me. I live in Franklin, Tennessee.
Nothing happens in Franklin, Tennessee. You know why law and
(06:36):
order is taken very seriously here, and we have and
I mean this, I'm not kissing up loving, professional, diligent
men and women on our police force. So for ninety
nine point nine percent of everybody living here, these are
(06:57):
the guys that are directing traffic on our way into church.
We see him in the convenience stores or grocery stores.
Everybody thanks them, We laugh, we talk. They're are friends,
and we know if anybody ever meant us harm, they'd
be there in an instant. We don't need a new sheriff.
We got a great police department. But in the Old West,
(07:18):
when things got out of control, it was chaos and
it cost you your rights, it cost you your property
or your life for your goods and services, and then
a new sheriff would come to town, meaning enforcement. Usually
(07:38):
the bad guys go somewhere else where there isn't a
new sheriff. It's not worth the risk. I'll never forget
one time I was doing commercials for an alarm company
and this guy was a former assistant chief of police
for a major police department in Oklahoma, and even though
he's kind of teaching me everything he goes.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
You know, bottom line is, you.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Put that sign in your front yard, put that sticker
on your front door, most criminals will just go somewhere else.
It's not worth the risk, just like quite frankly, have
a large dog with a deal, or just have a
motion detector that triggers a speaker with a large dog barking,
they'll go somewhere else. There's too many easy targets to risk.
And he was selling me the alarm system. He's saying
(08:20):
the sign will pretty much do it. But we had
talked about the new sheriff in town. We don't really
appreciate that, but there is a new sheriff in town.
So when I look at this story, I'm always trying
to remind people what I don't see anybody saying on
television or hear anybody else saying on radio. So I'm
going to make a big deal out of it, because
(08:41):
sometimes you look around and you're like, oh God, I'm
the one that's supposed to warn them.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Okay, I'll do it.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
The Democrats, if you go back to the end, first
of all, the weaponization of COVID to destroy the economy,
destroy the Trump presidency, and destroy our way of light.
That's the greatest defeat of this century. And it revealed
a lot about us. We were willing to sell our
liberty for about fifteen hundred dollars check and stay home.
(09:09):
If that was a trial run for the Antichrist, We're
not in good shape. We bought into a virus, let
alone Satan, all right, So you get beyond that, and
then they were conditioning you for something. Remember all the
George Floyd, remember all the Antifa, all the Black Lives Matter.
Remember in awe of just watching them burn cities, burn businesses,
(09:34):
burn homes, set police cars out, and nobody was doing
anything looting. Heck, in Seattle, they took a portion of
land and made it an autonomous zone. They just took
over part of the city and nobody was doing anything.
And even after that, throughout the four years of Joe Biden,
something we just had to close stores because people were
(09:55):
just looting and stealing and no one would stop them.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
What happened When did the.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Cops become the bad guys and the bad guys become
the good guys and lawlessness the way of life? Well,
then after Biden is elected. The manifesto was released in
Time magazine and it basically these are the architects of
the campaign for the Democrats telling you exactly what they
(10:22):
did at the time this Time magazine article came out.
I'd have been fired if I said the election was rigged,
stolen or illegitimate, I'd have been fired from where I worked.
And in Time magazine they're bragging it was a shadow
campaign because we had to save democracy. We weaponized COVID,
(10:44):
we destroyed the economy, We got everybody.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
In fear and controllable.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
We changed election laws without going through state legislatures, and
then we harvested ballots and in swing precincts of swing
districts of swing states, we stole the election. We had
to Democracy was at stake and buried. In that manifesto,
they didn't elaborate a lot on the conditioning of you
(11:10):
seeing Antifa, seeing BLM, seeing burning and destruction and lawlessness
without any consequence, but they did say an insurrection was planned.
They still expected Trump to beat Biden, and a full
scale insurrection was in the works, and you were conditioned
for it carefully with Antifa and BLM over months and months.
(11:34):
People forget going into that election, Kamala Harris and Joe
Biden were calling what you were seeing on TV good
trouble making. And in the manifesto Time magazine February fifteenth,
twenty twenty one, they talk about the insurrection plans and
how they had to scramble to call them off when
they were shocked at worked and Biden won, and then
(11:55):
they hang insurrection on Donald Trump. And so when all
of this began, I said, if that was their plan
in twenty twenty, what makes you think that's not their
plan in twenty twenty five, six, or seven. And though
it may be targeted at Musk and not Trump, and
(12:16):
it may be burning or painting Tesla's today, or burning
charging stations today, or disrupting Tesla showrooms today, where is.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
The end of this?
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Because I am of the firm belief if they were
willing to go crazy, willing to go violent, willing to
go destructive in twenty twenty, they'll do it again. And
this is the tip of the iceberg. And then I'm
reading this story. Telsa Arson defendants will face the full
force of the law for allegedly using molotov cocktails to
set fire to electric vehicles and charging stations. Attorney General
(12:52):
Pam Bondi said in a statement on Thursday, Ready, the
days of committing crimes without consequence are over, and in
my mind flashed, Oh, they'll play the insurrection card again,
only this time the administration won't be asleep, and this
(13:15):
time there's a new sheriff in town.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
It's your morning show with Michael del Chano.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
We're not able to do your morning show without your voice,
as you can imagine. So if you're listening on that
iHeartRadio app, use that talkback. Hit the microphone, count you
down three two one gets you thirty seconds. Make a
common ask a question, love to hear from you. How's
your bracket surviving? I had one blemish, got too cute
with utass State, But unlike most, I had Grayton, I
had McNee State, I had Gonzaga. I think those were
(13:43):
the three big shockers, right, yeah, probably so yeah, But
what do you make of the violent left? What do
you make of your March madness bracket? Or for those
of you that are Platinum card listeners and know we
did our twenty twenty eight presidential bracket from CNM, how'd
your bracket turn out?
Speaker 5 (14:00):
All? Right?
Speaker 1 (14:00):
If you're just waking up. Here's top stories. We got
to start in London. Don't what do I care what's
happening in lun Well, it could affect your flight. London's
Heathrow Airport will be closed all day today after a
fire at an electrical substation caused a widespread power outage.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Ali Barrat reports.
Speaker 6 (14:18):
Hethrow Airport is currently telling passengers simply not to come
to the site because there won't be any flights leaving
or arriving. That will have a huge effect on thousands
of travelers, not just today but potentially through the weekend
and into next week as well.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
And the problem goes and extends well beyond the airport.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
The fire at the electrical substation which caused the power outage,
which has had the disastrous effects really for Heathrow's operations
on Friday, has also shut down power for thousands of
homes in the West London area as well major train
and road disruption.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Meanwhile, here at home, in our airspace, a plane left
Marine Corps air Station Miramar with one hundred nineteen migrants
on board pre Tennis with more on the Deportasia.
Speaker 7 (15:03):
The C seventeen Air Force jet left Thursday morning, with
adults and children, mostly from Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
The deportees were then moved to a hotel in Panama
and are now awaiting the next step. Last month to
other deportation flights from Merrimar headed to Columbia but were
denied landing. President Trump has promised to cut spending, but
the US military says using a C seventeen military jet
(15:25):
for deportations cost taxpayers about twenty eight thousand dollars per hour.
That's more than three times when ICE pays were chartered
passenger flights.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
I'm pre Tennis, and kudos to the US Coast Guard
who offloaded nearly forty six thousand pounds of illegal drugs
at Port Everglades in Florida. Some good cock work being
done across the country, all right. In March Madness, hope
your polls are still intact. The ones that got easy
ride Saint John's by thirty over all, Maha, Auburn by.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
Twenty over Bama State.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Michigan ended up with a squeaker against University Uzee San Diego,
and Auburn and Houston easily advanced podde of round one
today in the NC Double.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
Eight Good morning, guys.
Speaker 8 (16:10):
This is jeff in Pleasant View, Tennessee, and my morning
show is your Morning Show with Michael Dale Jorno.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Hey, it's me Michael.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Your morning show can be heard live five to eight
am Central, six to nine Eastern and great cities like Jackson, Mississippi, Akron, Ohio,
or Columbus, Georgia. We'd love to be a part of
your morning routine and we're grateful you're here. Now, enjoy
the podcast.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
I know what you're thinking, doctor, doctor, give me the news.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
The Trump administration moving forward with its plans to dismantle
the Department of Education and what that means state Department insists,
Russian and Ukraine, just a breath away from a full
cease fire at Israel, back on the ground in the Gaza.
Just some of the top stories waking up this morning.
And of course we can't have your morning show without
your voice. You know my voice. I'm Michael. Jeffrey's got
the sound. Red's got the late today. I don't want
(17:01):
an I don't want any of the bosses to know
that he arrived late today. He just showed we were
always wondering when does Red sleep. He's up all night.
And then we figured out at about five oh two
Central time this morning. Last night is when he finally
slept after a year and a half. But no, you
know our voices. We love hearing yours to the talk
back line.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
We go.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Let's start in Nashville, close to home. Here's my favorite, Rachel.
Speaker 9 (17:23):
So I got started a little late this morning. First
thing I hear is replayed for me yesterday and I think,
oh no, something happened. I start praying for your mom.
I start praying for your kids, which.
Speaker 10 (17:35):
I suppose is an appropriate response to hearing the voice
of Jesus. But I'm glad everything's okay. Nice addition to
your Friday lineup. Thanks, have a good day.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Five Well, all right, a lot of card noise there, Rachel.
I expect more from you in the future. Yeah, I
thought it would be a neat Friday feature.
Speaker 11 (17:53):
You know.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
We last week we had aj Croche and Crochey son
at Dian Tamucci, who from Dion and the Belmonts to
Abraham Martin and John to his contemporary Christian career. People
forget he was touring with Buddy Holly, Ritchie Allens and
the Big Bopper and he was to be on that
plane but couldn't afford it. He won the coin toss
like Waylan Jennings did, but he could afford it. It was
(18:15):
like his rent for the month, just to fly that plane.
And that's why Dion's alive and the others are not.
But you know, we have these extraordinary interviews, and then
you know, think if they're not listening at that moment
and they're not using the podcast, they might miss him.
So I kind of thought, wouldn't it be fun if
every Friday we did one of our Spotlight interviews and
replayed it for the Platinum Card listeners in the early
(18:36):
hour in case they got busy and missed it during
the week.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
And so today was Jonathan Rumin of the Chosen.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Even though I don't know why, I have a mental
fart in my head that wants to say the apostle
every time? Why are you clapping? Go back to bed? Look,
don't think it went unnoticed. You were three minutes late.
You look completely dishoveled. I mean you look like you
I'm watching basketball all night. Weren't you just come clean
with the bosses. But anyway, I thought it'd be a
(19:06):
fun feature, a Spotlight weekly interview, and we already have
Friday with forty seven that everybody loves, but like an
early morning take one of our best interviews, so we
re featured that. It never dawned on me. For the
very loyal listeners, they might think I'm dead and that
we're in best of mode.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Let's go to Ames Iowa and Blaine.
Speaker 12 (19:24):
Hey, but you remember that during the Olympics when train
substations were set on fire in France. Could this be
a recurrence because of all the guests they have in
the UK, and this could be a task run to
see how much they can screw up everything.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
It may be connected to a whole lot of things.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Weekend Gwen Blaine says guest, he means the number two
population category in England is illegals, or as some.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Might call them. He's honest.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
Yeah, they leave that part out of the story, don't they.
How do we think all this stuff caught on fire?
Speaker 13 (20:02):
Shit?
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Never mind that.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Just know that flights are canceled and some homes don't
have power.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
But who said it. We're moving, We're moving, and we're walking.
We're walking.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Remember the day we did that. Let's do it and
we're walking between each story. Next up is Dustin Kate
f Yi in Phoenix, Arizona.
Speaker 14 (20:21):
Early bird gets the worm, but the second house gets
the cheese.
Speaker 7 (20:25):
Your show is my show?
Speaker 3 (20:26):
What Michael del Jorno? What the all?
Speaker 13 (20:28):
Right?
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Well, I get him a day for effort. Look, we're
tongue tied. Why shouldn't he be? It was a idea,
But why is it so hard for people to remember
the format? Remember the name of the show is your
morning show. Okay, So what you're saying is my morning
show is your morning show.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
It's a it's a play on words and it rhymes.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
It rhymes my morning show is your morning show with
Michael del Jorno. I think we need the coffee cups,
the cups and the T shirts to help drive this
home or somewhere where they can see the script.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Merch would be a great, great thing.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
And add that to the list of remember when you're
talking to Jesus in an interview, maybe at the end
to get him to say, I'm Donatan rum my morning
show shirt mornings all right? I am odd I'll get
I will admit I prefer winter over summer. Not a
lot of people agree with that, but give you know,
maybe it's because I'm a little overweight, Give me some jeans,
a little cashmere sweater over a T shirt, nice pair
(21:24):
of shoes, and like a fall winnery jacket, and man,
I'm ready to go to the bus stop. I feel
good hot. My problem with hot is you can take
all your clothes off and you're still hot and panting
like a dog. And when you take all your clothes up,
people start running scared like a horror movie. You'll call
the cops. But you know, I think we can all
(21:45):
agree just to bring is perfect. And we live in
Middle Tennessee. And one thing I'll tell you about Middle Tennessee.
Allergies are bad, but we have three mild seasons. I've
been in Oklahoma, and I know Texas is even worse,
where you can go like twenty eight forty days straight
with temperatures over one hundred degrees. And then I like
(22:07):
when it's it's real windy in Oklahoma. There's a theory
about why it's windy in Oklahoma, but I won't do that.
It would breach a commandment. I'd have to use a
bad word. But then the winds kick up, so it's like,
you know, unlike Arizona, it's not a dry heat. Number
one and it's hot, and then the wind starts plowing
and it feels like a convection of them.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
It's awful.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
We don't have any of that here. So what we
have is three or four mild seasons. If we have
a day of one hundred degrees, it's one or two
a year, and it's rare. But we get in the
nineties for a while, and then we have mild flall
mild winter, just enough to work out that kind of thing.
Maybe one or two snowfalls, but not much. But one
(22:49):
thing we have is perfect spring. I can't I don't
think there's any well. I guess people listening in San
Diego would say that's here every day, no humidity, breeze
and cool. So but spring is just I am a
fall fan. It's funny. I love death more than life.
So there's some about leaves turning that's gorgeous to me.
(23:11):
Temperatures falling, that's amazing for me. But most people do
agree spring is wonderful and the rest musem Pole reveals
spring has arrived and Americans are very happy about it.
Sixty five percent of the American people say the arrival
of spring puts them in a better mood just slightly
higher than in twenty eighteen. Now, for some on the left,
(23:32):
spring means let's set some cars on fire, but for
most it puts them in a good mood. Only eight
percent say the arrival of spring puts them in a
worse mood. These would be parents that know school lending
is on the horizon and the brats we made will
be home driving us crazy instead of teachers. How many
parents in the summer go, you know what, that teacher
(23:54):
was right? He really doesn't know when to shut up,
does he? Or put his phone away? Twenty four percent
and say it has absolutely no impact on their mood.
I love a chilly, misty, rainy, cool day, and I
know that's weird. I was up for a job in Seattle.
I went through a phase where I thought, you know what,
I'm sick of getting amen's. I want to go somewhere
(24:15):
where you got to have a real conversation, really win
some minds, really win some hearts. So I thought, wouldn't
be fun to go to Seattle where everybody's crazy left
I just try to have a reasonable conversation. So I
was up for a job, and I know that the
program director thought I was kissing up, but I wasn't.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
I was saying, you don't get it when it's rainy
and cloudy and windy. I'm happy.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
That's where I was making I would live very well
in London, Scotland, Seattle.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
He probably thought I was kissing up, but I wasn't.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
And then when I was up for a job once
in Phoenix, I said, well, i'll tell you my biggest
apprehension is I really hate sunny, hot days.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
The guy paused for like about five seconds.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
He's like, well, it's sunny here every sickle day.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
But I don't know. I think everybody kind of agrees.
Speaker 13 (25:07):
That spring is perfect and just the right temperature, just
the right amount of sunshine, and then the flowers start blooming,
and America is in a better mood, and goodness knows
we need a better mood.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Believe it or not, it's pretty even.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
Women twenty nine percent are somewhat are more likely than
men twenty five percent to consider spring their favorite season.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
They're all all.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Women are also more likely to say spring's arrival puts them.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
In a better mood.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
We'll see I do things more by March madness. So
March madness is one of my highlights of spring and
do we have our fancy basketball music. I'd like to
brag a little bit if I could. Well, we got
the first round of March Madness underway, and the number
(25:59):
one seed, Auburn Tigers had no problem winning by twenty
over Alabama State. I had Creighton over Louisville. Did you
Number nine took out number eight? Eighty nine seventy five.
Creighton advances to take on Auburn and that's the end
of their March Madness. Meanwhile, I was worried about Yale
because Yale can pop some threes. They didn't pop enough.
(26:19):
Texas A and M advance is eighty seventy one over Yale.
Michigan the Wolverines and a squeaker with UC San Diego,
I mean a squeaker. Hell to the Squeakers, go sixty
eight sixty five. Michigan limps into the second round of
thirty two. They'll take on Texas A and M. I
think it's the best matchup in all of the round
(26:41):
of thirty two. Brewing John, I had argon, what's that
Big John's on the phone?
Speaker 11 (26:48):
You did to take this all right? Hip Paus Michaels.
Big John had a good day yesterday. Also I had
McNee state Drake and Utahs State. Also just a reminder
that that Gonzaga Georgia game, Gonzaga was fainted by eight.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
They weren't an upset.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
Yeah, well they were by seed. Though Arkansas was an
upset over Kansas, and I had that one. I noticed
Big John let that off Arkansas by seven over Kansas.
Boy Bill self hated Sian go home after one game.
But Arkansas Advancas will take on Saint John, who was
easy by thirty over Omaha. Drake was one of my
big upsets. It's an eleven over a six beat Missouri
(27:29):
by ten. They'll take on Texas Tech, who advanced easily.
What else happened here? So BYU wiscon BYU in VCU.
I don't do spreads because I don't gamble, but BYU
went on to win by nine. I don't know if
that covered or not, but that's a pretty dangerous team.
Wisconsin better be careful. They took out Montana. That's red school.
(27:55):
But that's another good matchup in the round of thirty
two BYU and Wisconsin, and I'm pretty sure I took Wisconsin,
but I'm worried about that one I think BYU could advance.
We're looking for Cinderella. We're having a hard time to
find one. I did get cute with Uta State. Eustas
State is my only blemish on my bracket. I went
to sleep last night with a perfect bracket. I was
worried about Uta State because Ucla is for real and
(28:18):
Ucla went easily seventy two to forty seven. Now Tennessee
will get Ucla. That's a good matchup too. I expect
Tennessee to win, but I wouldn't be shocked if they lose.
My big Cinderella picked a click was McNee State over Clemson.
They led by as much as twenty. They squeaked by
what happened to our fancy music? I was enjoying that.
I think that's one of the best beads you've ever found.
(28:41):
So Clemson loses by two, they were down by twenty.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
McNee State advances.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
I think it ends in their matchup with Purdue, but
maybe McNee State is the Cinderella.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
He mentioned Gonzaga an eight.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Seed over nine seed Georgia eighty nine sixty eight, and
they covered the spread. As we find out from Big
John and Easy by thirty eight over si u E.
So you got Houston and Gazaga. I think it ends
for Gonzaga. Houston will probably win easy. But can McNee
state be the Cinderella? Is Drake the Cinderella? Is there
(29:13):
a Cinderella in today's first first round sixteen games? Who knows?
That's why they call it madness. Hope your brackets still intact.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
This is your morning show with Michael del Trono. This
is your morning show. I'm Michael del Jornap.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
I was a teacher today walking it said kids, kids, kids,
settled down, No class today, We're all gonna watch basketball.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
They We used to do that at our our did

Speaker 1 (29:39):
And then I would say kids, kids, kids, no class today,

up and show the class how we do this.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
Liner. This is Dan from Erie, Pennsylvania. My morning show
is your morning show. Bang It with Michael del Jornad. Dan,
you'll get.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Block lesson We never discuss ratings on the air, but
I will tell you this. We are the Kings of Ohio,
but we're not far behind in Pennsylvania. I knew it
would be Ohio or Pennsylvania that would show you how it's.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Done all right. Top five stories Numeral No.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Well, President Trump wants to dismantle the Department of Education
in Washington. Not public schools, the Department of Education inside
the Beltway, the bureaucracy, the waste, the overspending, the things
that get in the way of the resources that get
to the students and make a difference. You don't hear
that much in the news, and you probably want to
hear it much in this report.
Speaker 15 (30:35):
But here's Brian shuck During the signing of an executive
order aimed at dismantling the department, Trump said, everyone knows
it's the right thing to do. After looking at test
scores of US children.
Speaker 14 (30:45):
After forty five years, the United States spends more money
on education by far than any other country, yet we
ranked near the bottom of the list in terms of success.
Speaker 15 (30:56):
Trump says it's time to see education authority be returned
to individual states.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
I'm Brian Schuck. Well.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
The Pentagon is planning to brief Elon Musk Friday on
the US military's plan for a potential war with China.
Though there's been denials of this particular report. Mark Mayfield
has more vance.
Speaker 16 (31:14):
According to a New York Times report citing two US officials.
Giving Musk access to top military secrets would greatly expand
his role as an advisor to President Trump. It could
also create a conflict of interest, as Musk as CEO
of both Tesla and SpaceX and a leading supplier to
the Pentagon. He also has extensive financial interests in China.
(31:34):
I'm Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
Meanwhile, Tesla owners are expressing concerns after discovering an online
map with a Molotov cocktail image as the cursor, sharing
their personal information, including home addresses.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Lisa Taylor has.
Speaker 5 (31:46):
Details wiscons As activists against CEO Elon musk or vandalizing
Tesla's across the country. Earlier this month, President Trump had
a message for anyone who targeted Tesla.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
You do it to.
Speaker 14 (31:55):
Tesla, and you do it to any company, We're going
to catch.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
You and you're going to go through hell.
Speaker 5 (32:00):
Launched on Monday, the map lists the names and details
of Tesla owners, dealerships, and Trump administration members. The site
encourages vandalism, suggesting people spray paint Teslas to unleash their
artistic flare. Must condemn the website on x, calling the
promotion of vandalism extreme domestic terrorism. Finally, said Taylor, Well.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
If you want to keep working into the next decade,
chances are you're going to need to learn some new skills.
Michael Kastner has more.
Speaker 17 (32:29):
LinkedIn is out with their twenty twenty five list of
the fifteen fastest growing skills in the US. LinkedIn data
shows that by twenty twenty three, seventy percent of the
skills used in most jobs will change. So what skills
should you learn? In the top three adaptability the most
common job titles teacher, administrative assistant, project manager. At number two,
(32:51):
conflict mitigation. In this current atmosphere, no explanation needed the
most common job titles customer, service representative, administrative isssistant, and
project manager, And at number one AI literacy the most
common job titles software engineer, product manager, chief executive officer.
I'm Michael Kassner.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
Well, I started the new year with three and a
half weeks of the flu. Then I had about a
week and a half where I felt so and then
I had another two week battle with COVID. So now
that I'm feeling good going on ten days, here comes
allergy season and forecasters are warning those with seasonal allergies
that Powllen counts are going to be higher than usual
in the US well.
Speaker 8 (33:31):
See historical averages in thirty nine states. As the warm
weather approaches, the experts say those who suffer from allergies
should prepare for an intense allergy season that could linger
into autumn. They say allergy seasons across the country are
lasting one to four weeks longer than they did fifty
years ago because of changing climate conditions.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
I'm Tammy Trichio.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
So you just need a little allegra. Or isn't allegra
the allergy medicine or I'll just give you something for ed.
No allegra is allergy. You just need an allegra. And
of course you're drunk right now on nikewil that's kind
of over medicating.
Speaker 3 (34:01):
And that's your top five stories of the day. We're
all in this together. This is your morning show with
michaelnel Choano.
Hi, It's Michael. Your morning show can be heard live
weekday mornings five to eight am, six to nine am
Eastern in 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.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Two three Starting your morning off right, A new way
of talk, a new way of understanding because we're in Mitgiver,
this is your.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Morning show with Michae o'pel chom. Well, there's no getting
around it. We live in a matrix.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Is the President eliminating public schools? Or is he eliminating
the Department of Education signing an executive order that will
ultimately be decided by Congress to eliminate bureaucracy ways control
from DC and returning that money and power to the states. Well,
ask them, it's Friday with forty seven next hour, the
(00:57):
third hour.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Don't vissit.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
It's not Friday without the present, right if you're just
waking up eight minutes after the hour on this Friday,
March to twenty, first year of our Lord twenty twenty five,
I only have one blemish on my March madness bracket
got a little too cute with UTAs State. But other
than that, I had the Creighton upset, I had this
McNee state upset. Good day, it was a good day.
(01:18):
I'm in the top one percent. That's not bad for
milk or brackets. The Trump administration is moving forward plants
to dismandle the Department of Education. The State Department insists
Russia and Ukraine are just a breath away from a
full cease fire, and a Georgia man held in Afghanistan
for over two years has been released. And what would
be the impact of shutting down or reducing the size
(01:39):
of the Department of Education. It's our top story, and
our national correspondent, Roy O'Neil is all over it. He's
got the numbers in hand. Good morning, Rory. Hey there, Michael,
good morning, Happy Friday.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
You know, there's still a lot that needs to be
figured out here with closing down the Department of Education.
But clearly President Trump is set off on that course
with signing that executive order yesterday essentially telling his Education
Secretary Linda McMahon to put herself out of a job.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
There are several ways to look at this, probably as
you're dismantling something, it would behoove you maybe to just
look at why it was created. And it's funny, rory,
if you go down that rabbit hole, that one's hard
to even get your arms around. There are a lot
of the searches that will pop up that maybe it
was political in origin. So Jimmy Carter was doing it
simply to court the Union vote in a close selection.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Others would say, well.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
We had all these different things being supported from Washington,
and nobody was really keeping an eye on it, so
it was best to form a department. One thing I
think we can all agree on is one it's not
what it was at its formation. It's grown in control,
reach and expense and staffing, and to the results simply
aren't there if you go by test scores. So but
(02:55):
I guess what started is a political football is still
very much a political football.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Is where I was added, well right, you know.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
But still the majority of the education responsibility falls on
the local community, and the Department of Education doesn't get
too involved with elementary or secondary. I mean, I think
their biggest role is in getting funding for people to
get telegrams. In college scholars get their tuition paid for
and student loan programs. That's what I was trying to say,
(03:22):
and get those student loan programs.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
I'm glad it got to Florida. I'm telling you, Roy,
there is something in the air today. I called Josh
Shapiro Ben Shapiro. Jeffrey's been tongue tied saying I called
the Apostle, the Chosen, the Apostle.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
I think there's something in the air. But no. But
you bring up a great point, and.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
That's kind of where I think everybody's not really staying
on the same page because the political narrative doesn't match
the governmental department reality, and so kind of like when
they do scare taxics with Medicare or Medicaid or with
Social Security. You know, I think half of America is
scared of debt. He's not shutting down public education. If anything,
(04:02):
that's going to provide more power closer to the parent
and the teacher and the student, and more money to
flow to these resources that we thought it was doing
all along. But I don't know, I don't know if
we can have conversations like this at America anymore.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
We're so polarized. Well, right, but now you still need
the mechanism.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Right, So that's my question about you know, eliminating the
Department of Education, Like, we still need something then to
manage the student loan program. And Congress has made it
clear that they still want to be able to send
money to school districts that are either in rural or communities.
Especially they send a lot of money out to help
districts with disabled students. So you want that funding mechanism
(04:41):
to still be there, So you know how all that works?
Speaker 3 (04:44):
I think it is the tricky part to figure out.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Yeah, No, that's a great question too, because part of
that deck, that executive order says begin the process of
shutting down the Department of Education while at the same
time making sure all the resources that are needed continue
to flow without distrust. And I'm like, I was like you,
and how does that work? Because some will tell you
in the rabbit hole search that's why it was formed
(05:07):
to begin with, for somebody to keep track of all that. Well, right,
and you know, and we've seen the chainsaw wielding and
clearly you know we need a scalpel at some point
in this process. We saw what already half the staff
essentially has been let go. But now the idea is well,
wait a minute, how do we manage student loans that
are out there? What about painting questions and things like that,
(05:29):
And how do you make sure that those rural poor
districts get the funding that they need, what agency gets
that does it all fall under Health and Human Services?
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Going forward?
Speaker 4 (05:39):
You know, all those are just discussions to happen as
we figure out how to wind this down.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
And Rory is going to be back in the third
hour to talk about our other big story, and that
is what can the FBI, what can the Department of Justice?
What can local law enforcement do to protect against these
Tesla attacks? And is it just starting with Tesla? And
this is just the beginning of the unrest And it's interesting.
I was I was reading a story that Rhet had
sent me and Pam BONDI statement just you know, I
(06:12):
don't want to be dramatic, but it kind of stopped
me dead in my tracks. And it reminded me of
when we did the show on a new Sheriff in
Town and we talked openly about that expression. I don't
know what that means to anybody anymore. I don't know
what it means to me. I live in Franklin, Tennessee.
Nothing happens in Franklin, Tennessee. You know why law and
(06:36):
order is taken very seriously here, and we have and
I mean this, I'm not kissing up loving, professional, diligent
men and women on our police force. So for ninety
nine point nine percent of everybody living here, these are
(06:57):
the guys that are directing traffic on our way into church.
We see him in the convenience stores or grocery stores.
Everybody thanks them, We laugh, we talk. They're are friends,
and we know if anybody ever meant us harm, they'd
be there in an instant. We don't need a new sheriff.
We got a great police department. But in the Old West,
(07:18):
when things got out of control, it was chaos and
it cost you your rights, it cost you your property
or your life for your goods and services, and then
a new sheriff would come to town, meaning enforcement. Usually
(07:38):
the bad guys go somewhere else where there isn't a
new sheriff. It's not worth the risk. I'll never forget
one time I was doing commercials for an alarm company
and this guy was a former assistant chief of police
for a major police department in Oklahoma, and even though
he's kind of teaching me everything he goes.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
You know, bottom line is, you.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Put that sign in your front yard, put that sticker
on your front door, most criminals will just go somewhere else.
It's not worth the risk, just like quite frankly, have
a large dog with a deal, or just have a
motion detector that triggers a speaker with a large dog barking,
they'll go somewhere else. There's too many easy targets to risk.
And he was selling me the alarm system. He's saying
(08:20):
the sign will pretty much do it. But we had
talked about the new sheriff in town. We don't really
appreciate that, but there is a new sheriff in town.
So when I look at this story, I'm always trying
to remind people what I don't see anybody saying on
television or hear anybody else saying on radio. So I'm
going to make a big deal out of it, because
(08:41):
sometimes you look around and you're like, oh God, I'm
the one that's supposed to warn them.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Okay, I'll do it.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
The Democrats, if you go back to the end, first
of all, the weaponization of COVID to destroy the economy,
destroy the Trump presidency, and destroy our way of light.
That's the greatest defeat of this century. And it revealed
a lot about us. We were willing to sell our
liberty for about fifteen hundred dollars check and stay home.
(09:09):
If that was a trial run for the Antichrist, We're
not in good shape. We bought into a virus, let
alone Satan, all right, So you get beyond that, and
then they were conditioning you for something. Remember all the
George Floyd, remember all the Antifa, all the Black Lives Matter.
Remember in awe of just watching them burn cities, burn businesses,
(09:34):
burn homes, set police cars out, and nobody was doing
anything looting. Heck, in Seattle, they took a portion of
land and made it an autonomous zone. They just took
over part of the city and nobody was doing anything.
And even after that, throughout the four years of Joe Biden,
something we just had to close stores because people were
(09:55):
just looting and stealing and no one would stop them.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
What happened When did the.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Cops become the bad guys and the bad guys become
the good guys and lawlessness the way of life? Well,
then after Biden is elected. The manifesto was released in
Time magazine and it basically these are the architects of
the campaign for the Democrats telling you exactly what they
(10:22):
did at the time this Time magazine article came out.
I'd have been fired if I said the election was rigged,
stolen or illegitimate, I'd have been fired from where I worked.
And in Time magazine they're bragging it was a shadow
campaign because we had to save democracy. We weaponized COVID,
(10:44):
we destroyed the economy, We got everybody.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
In fear and controllable.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
We changed election laws without going through state legislatures, and
then we harvested ballots and in swing precincts of swing
districts of swing states, we stole the election. We had
to Democracy was at stake and buried. In that manifesto,
they didn't elaborate a lot on the conditioning of you
(11:10):
seeing Antifa, seeing BLM, seeing burning and destruction and lawlessness
without any consequence, but they did say an insurrection was planned.
They still expected Trump to beat Biden, and a full
scale insurrection was in the works, and you were conditioned
for it carefully with Antifa and BLM over months and months.
(11:34):
People forget going into that election, Kamala Harris and Joe
Biden were calling what you were seeing on TV good
trouble making. And in the manifesto Time magazine February fifteenth,
twenty twenty one, they talk about the insurrection plans and
how they had to scramble to call them off when
they were shocked at worked and Biden won, and then
(11:55):
they hang insurrection on Donald Trump. And so when all
of this began, I said, if that was their plan
in twenty twenty, what makes you think that's not their
plan in twenty twenty five, six, or seven. And though
it may be targeted at Musk and not Trump, and
(12:16):
it may be burning or painting Tesla's today, or burning
charging stations today, or disrupting Tesla showrooms today, where is.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
The end of this?
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Because I am of the firm belief if they were
willing to go crazy, willing to go violent, willing to
go destructive in twenty twenty, they'll do it again. And
this is the tip of the iceberg. And then I'm
reading this story. Telsa Arson defendants will face the full
force of the law for allegedly using molotov cocktails to
set fire to electric vehicles and charging stations. Attorney General
(12:52):
Pam Bondi said in a statement on Thursday, Ready, the
days of committing crimes without consequence are over, and in
my mind flashed, Oh, they'll play the insurrection card again,
only this time the administration won't be asleep, and this
(13:15):
time there's a new sheriff in town.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
It's your morning show with Michael del Chano.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
We're not able to do your morning show without your voice,
as you can imagine. So if you're listening on that
iHeartRadio app, use that talkback. Hit the microphone, count you
down three two one gets you thirty seconds. Make a
common ask a question, love to hear from you. How's
your bracket surviving? I had one blemish, got too cute
with utass State, But unlike most, I had Grayton, I
had McNee State, I had Gonzaga. I think those were
(13:43):
the three big shockers, right, yeah, probably so yeah, But
what do you make of the violent left? What do
you make of your March madness bracket? Or for those
of you that are Platinum card listeners and know we
did our twenty twenty eight presidential bracket from CNM, how'd
your bracket turn out?
Speaker 5 (14:00):
All? Right?
Speaker 1 (14:00):
If you're just waking up. Here's top stories. We got
to start in London. Don't what do I care what's
happening in lun Well, it could affect your flight. London's
Heathrow Airport will be closed all day today after a
fire at an electrical substation caused a widespread power outage.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Ali Barrat reports.
Speaker 6 (14:18):
Hethrow Airport is currently telling passengers simply not to come
to the site because there won't be any flights leaving
or arriving. That will have a huge effect on thousands
of travelers, not just today but potentially through the weekend
and into next week as well.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
And the problem goes and extends well beyond the airport.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
The fire at the electrical substation which caused the power outage,
which has had the disastrous effects really for Heathrow's operations
on Friday, has also shut down power for thousands of
homes in the West London area as well major train
and road disruption.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Meanwhile, here at home, in our airspace, a plane left
Marine Corps air Station Miramar with one hundred nineteen migrants
on board pre Tennis with more on the Deportasia.
Speaker 7 (15:03):
The C seventeen Air Force jet left Thursday morning, with
adults and children, mostly from Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
The deportees were then moved to a hotel in Panama
and are now awaiting the next step. Last month to
other deportation flights from Merrimar headed to Columbia but were
denied landing. President Trump has promised to cut spending, but
the US military says using a C seventeen military jet
(15:25):
for deportations cost taxpayers about twenty eight thousand dollars per hour.
That's more than three times when ICE pays were chartered
passenger flights.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
I'm pre Tennis, and kudos to the US Coast Guard
who offloaded nearly forty six thousand pounds of illegal drugs
at Port Everglades in Florida. Some good cock work being
done across the country, all right. In March Madness, hope
your polls are still intact. The ones that got easy
ride Saint John's by thirty over all, Maha, Auburn by.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
Twenty over Bama State.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Michigan ended up with a squeaker against University Uzee San Diego,
and Auburn and Houston easily advanced podde of round one
today in the NC Double.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
Eight Good morning, guys.
Speaker 8 (16:10):
This is jeff in Pleasant View, Tennessee, and my morning
show is your Morning Show with Michael Dale Jorno.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Hey, it's me Michael.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Your morning show can be heard live five to eight
am Central, six to nine Eastern and great cities like Jackson, Mississippi, Akron, Ohio,
or Columbus, Georgia. We'd love to be a part of
your morning routine and we're grateful you're here. Now, enjoy
the podcast.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
I know what you're thinking, doctor, doctor, give me the news.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
The Trump administration moving forward with its plans to dismantle
the Department of Education and what that means state Department insists,
Russian and Ukraine, just a breath away from a full
cease fire at Israel, back on the ground in the Gaza.
Just some of the top stories waking up this morning.
And of course we can't have your morning show without
your voice. You know my voice. I'm Michael. Jeffrey's got
the sound. Red's got the late today. I don't want
(17:01):
an I don't want any of the bosses to know
that he arrived late today. He just showed we were
always wondering when does Red sleep. He's up all night.
And then we figured out at about five oh two
Central time this morning. Last night is when he finally
slept after a year and a half. But no, you
know our voices. We love hearing yours to the talk
back line.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
We go.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Let's start in Nashville, close to home. Here's my favorite, Rachel.
Speaker 9 (17:23):
So I got started a little late this morning. First
thing I hear is replayed for me yesterday and I think,
oh no, something happened. I start praying for your mom.
I start praying for your kids, which.
Speaker 10 (17:35):
I suppose is an appropriate response to hearing the voice
of Jesus. But I'm glad everything's okay. Nice addition to
your Friday lineup. Thanks, have a good day.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Five Well, all right, a lot of card noise there, Rachel.
I expect more from you in the future. Yeah, I
thought it would be a neat Friday feature.
Speaker 11 (17:53):
You know.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
We last week we had aj Croche and Crochey son
at Dian Tamucci, who from Dion and the Belmonts to
Abraham Martin and John to his contemporary Christian career. People
forget he was touring with Buddy Holly, Ritchie Allens and
the Big Bopper and he was to be on that
plane but couldn't afford it. He won the coin toss
like Waylan Jennings did, but he could afford it. It was
(18:15):
like his rent for the month, just to fly that plane.
And that's why Dion's alive and the others are not.
But you know, we have these extraordinary interviews, and then
you know, think if they're not listening at that moment
and they're not using the podcast, they might miss him.
So I kind of thought, wouldn't it be fun if
every Friday we did one of our Spotlight interviews and
replayed it for the Platinum Card listeners in the early
(18:36):
hour in case they got busy and missed it during
the week.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
And so today was Jonathan Rumin of the Chosen.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Even though I don't know why, I have a mental
fart in my head that wants to say the apostle
every time? Why are you clapping? Go back to bed? Look,
don't think it went unnoticed. You were three minutes late.
You look completely dishoveled. I mean you look like you
I'm watching basketball all night. Weren't you just come clean
with the bosses. But anyway, I thought it'd be a
(19:06):
fun feature, a Spotlight weekly interview, and we already have
Friday with forty seven that everybody loves, but like an
early morning take one of our best interviews, so we
re featured that. It never dawned on me. For the
very loyal listeners, they might think I'm dead and that
we're in best of mode.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Let's go to Ames Iowa and Blaine.
Speaker 12 (19:24):
Hey, but you remember that during the Olympics when train
substations were set on fire in France. Could this be
a recurrence because of all the guests they have in
the UK, and this could be a task run to
see how much they can screw up everything.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
It may be connected to a whole lot of things.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Weekend Gwen Blaine says guest, he means the number two
population category in England is illegals, or as some.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Might call them. He's honest.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
Yeah, they leave that part out of the story, don't they.
How do we think all this stuff caught on fire?
Speaker 13 (20:02):
Shit?
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Never mind that.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Just know that flights are canceled and some homes don't
have power.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
But who said it. We're moving, We're moving, and we're walking.
We're walking.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Remember the day we did that. Let's do it and
we're walking between each story. Next up is Dustin Kate
f Yi in Phoenix, Arizona.
Speaker 14 (20:21):
Early bird gets the worm, but the second house gets
the cheese.
Speaker 7 (20:25):
Your show is my show?
Speaker 3 (20:26):
What Michael del Jorno? What the all?
Speaker 13 (20:28):
Right?
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Well, I get him a day for effort. Look, we're
tongue tied. Why shouldn't he be? It was a idea,
But why is it so hard for people to remember
the format? Remember the name of the show is your
morning show. Okay, So what you're saying is my morning
show is your morning show.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
It's a it's a play on words and it rhymes.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
It rhymes my morning show is your morning show with
Michael del Jorno. I think we need the coffee cups,
the cups and the T shirts to help drive this
home or somewhere where they can see the script.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Merch would be a great, great thing.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
And add that to the list of remember when you're
talking to Jesus in an interview, maybe at the end
to get him to say, I'm Donatan rum my morning
show shirt mornings all right? I am odd I'll get
I will admit I prefer winter over summer. Not a
lot of people agree with that, but give you know,
maybe it's because I'm a little overweight, Give me some jeans,
a little cashmere sweater over a T shirt, nice pair
(21:24):
of shoes, and like a fall winnery jacket, and man,
I'm ready to go to the bus stop. I feel
good hot. My problem with hot is you can take
all your clothes off and you're still hot and panting
like a dog. And when you take all your clothes up,
people start running scared like a horror movie. You'll call
the cops. But you know, I think we can all
(21:45):
agree just to bring is perfect. And we live in
Middle Tennessee. And one thing I'll tell you about Middle Tennessee.
Allergies are bad, but we have three mild seasons. I've
been in Oklahoma, and I know Texas is even worse,
where you can go like twenty eight forty days straight
with temperatures over one hundred degrees. And then I like
(22:07):
when it's it's real windy in Oklahoma. There's a theory
about why it's windy in Oklahoma, but I won't do that.
It would breach a commandment. I'd have to use a
bad word. But then the winds kick up, so it's like,
you know, unlike Arizona, it's not a dry heat. Number
one and it's hot, and then the wind starts plowing
and it feels like a convection of them.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
It's awful.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
We don't have any of that here. So what we
have is three or four mild seasons. If we have
a day of one hundred degrees, it's one or two
a year, and it's rare. But we get in the
nineties for a while, and then we have mild flall
mild winter, just enough to work out that kind of thing.
Maybe one or two snowfalls, but not much. But one
(22:49):
thing we have is perfect spring. I can't I don't
think there's any well. I guess people listening in San
Diego would say that's here every day, no humidity, breeze
and cool. So but spring is just I am a
fall fan. It's funny. I love death more than life.
So there's some about leaves turning that's gorgeous to me.
(23:11):
Temperatures falling, that's amazing for me. But most people do
agree spring is wonderful and the rest musem Pole reveals
spring has arrived and Americans are very happy about it.
Sixty five percent of the American people say the arrival
of spring puts them in a better mood just slightly
higher than in twenty eighteen. Now, for some on the left,
(23:32):
spring means let's set some cars on fire, but for
most it puts them in a good mood. Only eight
percent say the arrival of spring puts them in a
worse mood. These would be parents that know school lending
is on the horizon and the brats we made will
be home driving us crazy instead of teachers. How many
parents in the summer go, you know what, that teacher
(23:54):
was right? He really doesn't know when to shut up,
does he? Or put his phone away? Twenty four percent
and say it has absolutely no impact on their mood.
I love a chilly, misty, rainy, cool day, and I
know that's weird. I was up for a job in Seattle.
I went through a phase where I thought, you know what,
I'm sick of getting amen's. I want to go somewhere
(24:15):
where you got to have a real conversation, really win
some minds, really win some hearts. So I thought, wouldn't
be fun to go to Seattle where everybody's crazy left
I just try to have a reasonable conversation. So I
was up for a job, and I know that the
program director thought I was kissing up, but I wasn't.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
I was saying, you don't get it when it's rainy
and cloudy and windy. I'm happy.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
That's where I was making I would live very well
in London, Scotland, Seattle.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
He probably thought I was kissing up, but I wasn't.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
And then when I was up for a job once
in Phoenix, I said, well, i'll tell you my biggest
apprehension is I really hate sunny, hot days.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
The guy paused for like about five seconds.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
He's like, well, it's sunny here every sickle day.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
But I don't know. I think everybody kind of agrees.
Speaker 13 (25:07):
That spring is perfect and just the right temperature, just
the right amount of sunshine, and then the flowers start blooming,
and America is in a better mood, and goodness knows
we need a better mood.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Believe it or not, it's pretty even.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
Women twenty nine percent are somewhat are more likely than
men twenty five percent to consider spring their favorite season.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
They're all all.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Women are also more likely to say spring's arrival puts them.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
In a better mood.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
We'll see I do things more by March madness. So
March madness is one of my highlights of spring and
do we have our fancy basketball music. I'd like to
brag a little bit if I could. Well, we got
the first round of March Madness underway, and the number
(25:59):
one seed, Auburn Tigers had no problem winning by twenty
over Alabama State. I had Creighton over Louisville. Did you
Number nine took out number eight? Eighty nine seventy five.
Creighton advances to take on Auburn and that's the end
of their March Madness. Meanwhile, I was worried about Yale
because Yale can pop some threes. They didn't pop enough.
(26:19):
Texas A and M advance is eighty seventy one over Yale.
Michigan the Wolverines and a squeaker with UC San Diego,
I mean a squeaker. Hell to the Squeakers, go sixty
eight sixty five. Michigan limps into the second round of
thirty two. They'll take on Texas A and M. I
think it's the best matchup in all of the round
(26:41):
of thirty two. Brewing John, I had argon, what's that
Big John's on the phone?
Speaker 11 (26:48):
You did to take this all right? Hip Paus Michaels.
Big John had a good day yesterday. Also I had
McNee state Drake and Utahs State. Also just a reminder
that that Gonzaga Georgia game, Gonzaga was fainted by eight.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
They weren't an upset.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
Yeah, well they were by seed. Though Arkansas was an
upset over Kansas, and I had that one. I noticed
Big John let that off Arkansas by seven over Kansas.
Boy Bill self hated Sian go home after one game.
But Arkansas Advancas will take on Saint John, who was
easy by thirty over Omaha. Drake was one of my
big upsets. It's an eleven over a six beat Missouri
(27:29):
by ten. They'll take on Texas Tech, who advanced easily.
What else happened here? So BYU wiscon BYU in VCU.
I don't do spreads because I don't gamble, but BYU
went on to win by nine. I don't know if
that covered or not, but that's a pretty dangerous team.
Wisconsin better be careful. They took out Montana. That's red school.
(27:55):
But that's another good matchup in the round of thirty
two BYU and Wisconsin, and I'm pretty sure I took Wisconsin,
but I'm worried about that one I think BYU could advance.
We're looking for Cinderella. We're having a hard time to
find one. I did get cute with Uta State. Eustas
State is my only blemish on my bracket. I went
to sleep last night with a perfect bracket. I was
worried about Uta State because Ucla is for real and
(28:18):
Ucla went easily seventy two to forty seven. Now Tennessee
will get Ucla. That's a good matchup too. I expect
Tennessee to win, but I wouldn't be shocked if they lose.
My big Cinderella picked a click was McNee State over Clemson.
They led by as much as twenty. They squeaked by
what happened to our fancy music? I was enjoying that.
I think that's one of the best beads you've ever found.
(28:41):
So Clemson loses by two, they were down by twenty.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
McNee State advances.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
I think it ends in their matchup with Purdue, but
maybe McNee State is the Cinderella.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
He mentioned Gonzaga an eight.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Seed over nine seed Georgia eighty nine sixty eight, and
they covered the spread. As we find out from Big
John and Easy by thirty eight over si u E.
So you got Houston and Gazaga. I think it ends
for Gonzaga. Houston will probably win easy. But can McNee
state be the Cinderella? Is Drake the Cinderella? Is there
(29:13):
a Cinderella in today's first first round sixteen games? Who knows?
That's why they call it madness. Hope your brackets still intact.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
This is your morning show with Michael del Trono. This
is your morning show. I'm Michael del Jornap.
Speaker 1 (29:30):

Speaker 1 (30:14):
Well, President Trump wants to dismantle the Department of Education
in Washington. Not public schools, the Department of Education inside
the Beltway, the bureaucracy, the waste, the overspending, the things
that get in the way of the resources that get
to the students and make a difference. You don't hear
that much in the news, and you probably want to
hear it much in this report.
Speaker 15 (30:35):
But here's Brian shuck During the signing of an executive
order aimed at dismantling the department, Trump said, everyone knows
it's the right thing to do. After looking at test
scores of US children.
Speaker 14 (30:45):
After forty five years, the United States spends more money
on education by far than any other country, yet we
ranked near the bottom of the list in terms of success.
Speaker 15 (30:56):
Trump says it's time to see education authority be returned
to individual states.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
I'm Brian Schuck. Well.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
The Pentagon is planning to brief Elon Musk Friday on
the US military's plan for a potential war with China.
Though there's been denials of this particular report. Mark Mayfield
has more vance.
Speaker 16 (31:14):
According to a New York Times report citing two US officials.
Giving Musk access to top military secrets would greatly expand
his role as an advisor to President Trump. It could
also create a conflict of interest, as Musk as CEO
of both Tesla and SpaceX and a leading supplier to
the Pentagon. He also has extensive financial interests in China.
(31:34):
I'm Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 1 (31:35):

half weeks of the flu. Then I had about a
week and a half where I felt so and then
I had another two week battle with COVID. So now
that I'm feeling good going on ten days, here comes
allergy season and forecasters are warning those with seasonal allergies
