a new way of understanding because we're in this together.
This is your morning show with Michael O'Dell Jornant.

And good morning. I'm Michael del Jornal.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
Jeffries keep track of all the sound. Red's keeping an
eye on the content. Next half hour visit with lou
Diamond Phillips probably best known obviously for his portrayal of
Ritchie Allens in the movie La Bamba, but he's gone
on to write direct television movies. He's out with a
new movie E two, and if there's one thing he
(01:07):
does well, it's play a bad guy. He's playing a
bad guy in this one. It'll be released on demand
very very soon. We'll tell you all about the movie
with Lou Diamond Phillips. Rory's going to be back on well. Basically,
Glene Maxwell sang like a canary and she's going to
sing like a canary again today as the FED the
Department of Justice is going to be meeting with her
again in Tallahassee in prison and where that may lead
(01:29):
or new charges. This is a woman that's never told
her story, so she's got a lot to talk about
and she is the most credible of witnesses.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
So we'll see where that goes.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
And Roy O'Neil's going to join us on where that's
headed as well as I guess. At some point, Read
and Jeffrey will spontaneously just jump into a celebration of
Paul Kkan's life. I would have to say, knowing you
guys for two years, this has been the biggest death
for you, tool cokey.
Speaker 5 (02:00):
This has been very, very sad. This has been a
sad week. It's been a tough's a big Aussie fan.
I loved I loved Hogan, So yeah, all right, and
it's also Friday. You know what that means. I can't
wait any longer. The White House, right is ring.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
He's what we all say heill do.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
He has the power because he takes a shower, mister President,
good morning, well, good morning to you, pizza.
Speaker 6 (02:26):
Point of the beautiful day, you know, like mister.
Speaker 7 (02:29):
Rogers, I got it along very well with him.
Speaker 6 (02:31):
It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood, right, but it's
not the beautiful nay for your ratings.
Speaker 7 (02:36):
It's a beautiful day. I made his sweaters by the way.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Yeah, ratings of course always seem to be up on Friday,
and I just can't figure out why.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
What a busy week, I don't Let's start with.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
The Russia Russia, Russia, Tulsea gabber declassifying documents.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
This is very revealing.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
Turns out they were they were anticipating Hillary winning, and
they were setting her up up for a big scandal
and fall. But they sold just the opposite to the
American people. A media that was so curious and interested
in a lie now seemingly has no interest or curiosity
in the truth. What do you make of this and
what would you like to see for justice?
Speaker 7 (03:16):
Well, I want to see these people locked up, right.
I want to see a beautiful mugshot from Barack. I
want to see it. I call him Barry, right, you know.
And we don't get along very well that much. I
can say, I get along with with everybody except that guy.
Speaker 6 (03:31):
But if he had a mugshot, right.
Speaker 7 (03:33):
It wouldn't be as nice as my mug shot. You
look at it, and everybody calls it the Mona Lisa
mugshots it was, which is really a tremendous mug It
was a beautiful mugshot. Nobody's ever seen a mugshot like that.
But we want to see.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Justice that.
Speaker 6 (03:51):
Excuse me, excuse me.
Speaker 7 (03:53):
Uh you look at crooked Hillary. You look at crooked.
Speaker 6 (03:57):
We don't like yelling at you, but we have to
talk about it. And you know, look at crook and Hillary.
She was on the tranquilizers, right.
Speaker 7 (04:03):
And she filled them and they drew her into the
van like a sack of a datis. Nobody wanted to
talk about it, but she was having a lot of
problems and Putin knew it. Everybody knew it, and nobody
wanted to.
Speaker 6 (04:17):
Talk about it. Thankfully, we beat her and that ended
that story.
Speaker 7 (04:22):
But you know she had a lot of problems.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Joe Biden's gotten ten million dollars to write his memoir.
Don't you have to have a memory to write a memoir.
Speaker 7 (04:29):
Well, it's usually the operating word in memoir his you know, memory,
But apparently, you know, you.
Speaker 6 (04:36):
Look at the her report.
Speaker 7 (04:37):
He was an old man with a bad memory. Except
ten million dollars to write a book. What are discraps?
Speaker 8 (04:44):
You know?
Speaker 7 (04:44):
Maybe the Fed, the Federal Reserve, they love wasting money.
Maybe they're the ones who gave him the money to
write the book. Who the hell does it?
Speaker 6 (04:52):
Really is a disgrace. You looked at crooked Joe.
Speaker 7 (04:54):
Maybe he'll detail how many times he fell down the stairs.
Maybe the Pope incident should put zero you know what
I'm talking about. Oh yeah, maybe that will be in
the moir. We'll see what happens. But he shouldn't be
getting that much money. That much. We know that much,
I can tell you.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
I don't know that we're ever going to get to
the bottom of the Epstein.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
I know there's the subpoena of Glen Maxwell, there's the
whole tug of war going on. You're kind of like
ready to move on I think the Obama is a
much bigger story. But it has led to a twenty
million dollar lawsuit. And you are too, And oh, CBS,
you won. ABCU one is Wall Street Journal and Rupert
Murdoch next, Well.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
You look at the Wall Street Journal. They said I doodled, right,
they said I doodled the picture.
Speaker 7 (05:38):
I don't doodle. I make masterpieces, right. I got along
very well with Bob Ross. We painted the happy trees,
the grandest the world is evident, and I called them Bobby.
I call them Bobby. You understand that, But we have
the happy trees. I also painted the Sistine Chapel. I
did a tremendous job I did. I got very well
(06:00):
with Pablo Picasso, and I got a look well with
Vincent Vego. I got along well with Salvador Dolly, you
look at him. A surrilla s great guy, the melting box,
a lot of trim.
Speaker 6 (06:12):
In theous things.
Speaker 7 (06:14):
But I do very well. I don't doodle, but you
look at it.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
You mentioned subpoenas, and I just want to say this.
Speaker 7 (06:20):
Nobody has the biggest subpoena.
Speaker 6 (06:21):
Than I do.
Speaker 7 (06:21):
That much, I can tell you, I.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
Feel like I'm on edge. You keep yelling at me.
I feel like I'm getting in trouble today. The visit
to the FED. What do you hope to accomplish there?
Speaker 7 (06:31):
Well, we're going to see I mean the light switches.
Speaker 6 (06:33):
They spent a million dollars.
Speaker 7 (06:34):
Because there's no excuse for having a two point five
billion dollar renovation project. You know. You look at the
Buffalo Bills, the NFL football team, and by the way,
that stands for boy, I loved losing Super Bowls for
the rot stop. I have to say that.
Speaker 6 (06:51):
No, I have to say that.
Speaker 7 (06:52):
And by the way, Norwood never would have missed that
kick if I was the head coach.
Speaker 6 (06:56):
But he missed it.
Speaker 7 (06:57):
Why Wright, you don't want to do that? He missed
it dead.
Speaker 9 (07:03):
Yea.
Speaker 7 (07:03):
We call that type of kick a shanka pottamus.
Speaker 6 (07:06):
That was our own.
Speaker 7 (07:07):
Yeah, but you look at Norwood.
Speaker 6 (07:09):
You look at Norwood.
Speaker 7 (07:12):
I missed the kick. But the Bills are building a
brand new football stadium.
Speaker 6 (07:15):
You know, the bog two boottoks band in a Buffalo.
Speaker 7 (07:18):
Can't be Okle is taking a lot of New York
taxpay of dollars uh, and she's spending it on the stadium.
But it's only costing them two point two billion. It's
costing the Fed more money to renovate their building than
it's costing the boy I love losing super bowls to
build a brand new football stadium.
Speaker 6 (07:35):
It's a distrace what's happening.
Speaker 7 (07:37):
And he won't cut the rates. Jerome Powell too late,
we called them too late. I call him Jerry. He's
a stupid guy. And he ordered cut the rates, and
he order to cut the you know what else, you
ort to cut the sugar on the iced tea that
he's doing with the administration, and he order to stop
you know what, because if there's anything he's cutting, he's
like he's cutting the cheese. It stinks to I haven't.
(08:00):
It really is terrible. He ought to cut the rates
and help our country, but he's not doing that. Instead
he's spending billions of dollars to renovate this building. Millions
of dollars on a light switch. You ought to be
attend in himself.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
So I don't think it needs to be cut to
zero or one percent, but you would have thought it'd
be cut closer to two and a half or three percent.
Do you think embarrassing him even more or the continuing
the fight is going to make him hold out. If so,
why not just fire him.
Speaker 7 (08:29):
Well, we have to look at if we can fire him.
You know, I'd love to fire him, but there's legal issues.
And you know all these judges, these judges, they love
to do these terrible things.
Speaker 6 (08:39):
Right, they said that.
Speaker 7 (08:40):
After I bombed Iran, you had Boseburg come out and
said I had to unbomb Iran. These people are ridiculous.
But you look at hell and his term is up
in less than a year, and we're going to shame
the hell out of them, right, We're going to shame
him like nobody's ever seen it. He's either going to
do it or he's going to keep getting shamed.
Speaker 6 (08:59):
You look at his glasses, by the way, he.
Speaker 7 (09:00):
Wears the same glasses as Rachel mancal Keith Oberman, Mark Cuban,
Stephen Colbert.
Speaker 6 (09:06):
Who recently got fired. You know he't cost them a
lot of money.
Speaker 7 (09:08):
Yeah, Stephen Colbert was costing them forty million dollars a year.
That's crazy.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
He just toasted an entertainment show.
Speaker 7 (09:17):
Yeah, and so many people are out, but he didn't
do very well. And we're going to shame your own
ball until he plays ball. And if he doesn't play Ball, he's.
Speaker 6 (09:26):
Going to continue to get shamed.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Making bullying great again.
Speaker 7 (09:29):
We're doing it.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
Friday with forty seven, we continued Japan, Indonesia, the philip people.
We had three big deals this week, but Japan was
really big. As these tariff deals come in, European Union
might be next, and commitments with half a trillion dollars
of investment in the country.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
A lot of victories for you this week. It was
a victorious week.
Speaker 7 (09:50):
Well, we did very.
Speaker 6 (09:51):
Well with Japan. You know, you look at Japan. They
didn't want to sign the deal.
Speaker 7 (09:55):
They didn't want to take our rice, right, and that's incredible.
They're buying rish from US and they ate a lot
of rice in Japan, but they.
Speaker 6 (10:01):
Didn't want to take our rice.
Speaker 7 (10:02):
And we gave them their rice rice rice baby, tremendous thing.
But they're taking it. And one of the reasons why
they're taking it is because I said to the Prime
Minister in Japan, I.
Speaker 6 (10:14):
Said, you better take the rice.
Speaker 7 (10:15):
Well, we're gonna do Nagasaki all over again, but we're
gonna call it Nagasaki and it's gonna be horrible. We're
gonna drop Chris Christie, he said. But Sir Donald San,
please don't do that, and he calls me Donald San.
It's incredible. But we got the deal done, and they're
(10:35):
spending a lot of money in our country. They're taking
our cars, they're gonna take our rice.
Speaker 6 (10:41):
And I also said, you know, maybe they should take
some of our baseball players too.
Speaker 7 (10:45):
We took show. Hey, they should take.
Speaker 6 (10:47):
Some of our baseball players.
Speaker 7 (10:49):
But Show here does a tremendous job. I taught him
how to play. I told him how to picture, told.
Speaker 6 (10:53):
Him how to hit. But we made a tremendous deal
with Japan and.
Speaker 7 (10:57):
They're very happy about it, and we're very happy about it.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
You were you were the one that told baby Ruth
hit left handed. I think it was you.
Speaker 7 (11:04):
I told him how to play baseball. I was the
one who told him how to play. I was the
one who told him to play baseball. By the way,
I was also the one who named Tiger Woods Tiger.
You know his name coming out was Eldrick.
Speaker 6 (11:14):
I said, that's not going to scare anybody.
Speaker 7 (11:16):
Eldrick. That is Tiger. He's strong, he's tough, he's going
to scare people. He's the eye of the Tiger, and
Tiger's father. I got a long Willwood said, that's brilliant, sir.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
All right, let's close with this. The Kennedy said, Democrats
are upset. They said you slipped in renaming the opera
house to Milania.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
And they're all upset.
Speaker 7 (11:33):
Well, we uh, we want to name a lot of
things after Malania. You know, we're looking at naming the
Statue of Liberty the Statue of Malania.
Speaker 6 (11:41):
Oh, you know, you have Victoria's secret.
Speaker 7 (11:44):
You have Victoria's secret. We're gonna call it Malonnia's secret.
Nobody's as beautiful as that.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
And change those managers. Right, Yeah, we're doing it.
Speaker 7 (11:51):
They're all going to look like Malania. But we're naming
a lot of things after are. And by the way,
a lot of people want to name a lot of
things after me. You look at out Rushmore. They want
to put me on Mount Rushmore. By the way, I said,
we don't need to do that. I want my own mountain.
They're gonna call it Mount Trumpmore. It's a tremendous thing.
We already talked to John Food, we talked to South Dakota.
(12:12):
Great people like I look very well with the mountains.
Speaker 6 (12:15):
They say they want us to be on there.
Speaker 7 (12:17):
Our beautiful face but we're gonna rename that Kennedy Center
Opera House to the Milania Opera House or the what
you call it beautiful Opera House. And the Democrats are
very upset about it because they don't like her, because
she's a more attractive first Lady than Michelle Obama or Jill.
You know, you look at Jill, the fake doctor. She's
(12:37):
a fake doctor and she ruined the cabinet meetings. But
Malania is the beautiful She's the most beautiful verse Lady
of the world has ever seen. And we're gonna name
so many things after her. We're gonna name the opera house,
We're gonna name the Statue of Liberty. We're gonna name
so many beautiful things. Maybe a battleship. We'll see what happens,
because she's a fearsome person. We are going to name
(12:58):

Maybe we'll rename the.

five stories of the day. New Moron.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
Tensions between President Trump and fench Heer Jerome Powell rose
again yesterday. Powell continues to refuse to lower interest rates
and the President continues to humiliate him over the over
budget FED renovation.
Speaker 10 (14:02):
Trump toured the Federal Resort Building in DC with Powell
to look at the controversial two point five billion dollars
in renovations that Powell signed off on and use the
occasion to talk interest rates.
Speaker 7 (14:13):
We should have the lowest interest rate of any country,
and we don't. So we want to get the rates down,
but we also want to get the Fed building finished.
Speaker 10 (14:21):
Who had an awkward exchange in front of reporters over
a discrepancy in the amount of a new cost estimate.
Trump wrapped up the visit with a more conciliatory tone,
saying lowering interest rates is more important to him than
the building costs a Mark Mayfield.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
The Supreme Court is halting an appeals ruling that limits
the enforcement of the Voting Rights Act.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Brian Shook has more.
Speaker 11 (14:40):
The case stems from a lawsuit brought by two Native
American tribes who argue that North Dakota's state legislative map
denied them an equal opportunity to elect their candidates of choice.
Justices have lifted an appeals panel ruling that found the
tribes and other private parties have no legal right to
enforce Section two of the Voting Rights Act.
Speaker 9 (15:02):
I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 4 (15:03):
CDC says that the US fertility rate has now dropped
to an all new historic low.
Speaker 12 (15:08):
The fertility rate has fallen below one point six children
per woman. Experts note that for America to replace its population,
a fertility rate of two point one children is required.
The number of babies born in the US has been
declining for nearly two decades, as more women to lay
motherhood or up not to have children. The Trump administration
(15:29):
has been considering providing better access to in vitro fertilization
and offering financial incentives so called baby bonuses to encourage
child bearing.
Speaker 9 (15:39):
I'm Sarah Lee Kessler.
Speaker 4 (15:41):

the Department of Justice and late Epstein close associate Glene
Maxwell will meet again today in prison and Tallahassee. And
everybody saddened by the news of both Chuck Mangioni at
(18:12):
eighty four and wrestling legend and pop icon Hulk Hogan's
death at the age of seventy one, and The Fantastic Four,
which is the pick to click for movies this weekend.
It made an estimated twenty three million dollars in its
Thursday preview. I think it might even exceed the one
hundred and ten million they're projecting for this weekend. All right,
(18:33):
Love lou Diamond Phillips so thrilled to have him. He's
on the line. Thanks so much for being with us Loop.
Thank you, Michael absolutely, you know, I guess you know,
I remember being a teenager and Richie Allens died as
a teenager, and you're probably so sick of talking about that,
but your portrayal of Ritchie Vallens is so memorable, you know.
And I always think about that when somebody has their
(18:54):
best work early on, but that's not the case with you.
I mean, I'm thinking of a character you did in
Law and Order, Victor Katano. Wow, yeah, you're you're portrayaling
young guns. I've seen you in Goliath, The Ranch, blue Bloods,
and others, and I got to make an observation because
you're a very very nice man, but you play you
(19:14):
play a really good bad guy.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Thank you.
Speaker 9 (19:18):
Uh, it's so funny.
Speaker 13 (19:20):
I mean there's a lot of fantastic bad guys throughout
the years, you know, I've met, I've you know, worked with,
and they're always the nicest people. Uh, you know, I
think it's I think it's therapy for us, a scannel
the dark right out.
Speaker 4 (19:32):
I was just gonna say, I would think it's probably
harder to portray something similar to yourself when something's so
different you can get lost in it.
Speaker 9 (19:39):
Right.
Speaker 13 (19:39):
Well, then it's acting, you know, you know, it's it's funny.
I mean the Victor Katana role is a bit of
an amused boosh uh for me to play Richard Ramirez
and the Nights Talker and people go, how do you
do that?
Speaker 9 (19:53):
How do you know?
Speaker 13 (19:54):
I mean, it's it's it's a very intellectual approach, you know.
I mean, you know, I don't think you can method
that be because that they'd be a little psychotic. But
you know, I mean it's it's uh, it goes back
to your theater training, and it goes back to building
the character and doing your research and then the magic
if you put yourself in that character shoes and you
you think and you operate like they do, you know,
(20:15):
for a finite amount of time. So uh uh, those
are a lot of fun. Those are a lot of fun.
And that is, you know, as I said, a pure
acting job. You know what, what is the work? You're
most proud of the fact that I've been doing this
for forty years.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
That's not easy.
Speaker 13 (20:33):
Yeah, yeah, no, I mean, you know, the people have
come and gone and and I've I've been one of
the lucky ones.
Speaker 9 (20:39):
But I've also you know, and I'm still here.
Speaker 13 (20:41):
I mean, there are you know so many friends, you know,
Patrick Swayze, Luke Perry, you know, just oh my god,
Malcolm Jamal Warner recently it's just like good god, you know,
to to wake up in the morning and to walk
on the planet.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
Is what is the hardest part? Is it juggling all
the challenges. I mean, you've done stage, TV movies all well,
you've acted, written, directed. It kind of all comes together
any too. We're going to talk about that in a second.
But is it managing because you mentioned some others that
didn't fare out as well, they're not still with us.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Is it managing fame or managing the work?
Speaker 9 (21:19):
What is it that's managing all of it? Yeah, No,
it's it's it's finding a balance, you know.
Speaker 13 (21:23):
And and I think when you know early on, like
you said, you know, you can get overwhelmed by it.
And and uh, I think, you know, learning to relax,
learning that that the the business isn't the the you know,
be all and end all to it, and and uh,
you know, I think being grateful and knowing that I'd
be doing this, you know, in community theater, you know,
(21:45):
for free, if I was, if I was you know,
if I'd never gotten lucky because I do love it.
And but it's it is the pacing yourself, you know,
and and getting your priorities, you know, right, whether it's
family or you know, being a father, you know, just
or being annoy normal person. It's you know, it's it's
a constant I don't want to say struggle. But you
(22:07):
have to be, you know, mindful. You have to be
mindful because you were if you were very young when
you did. I was twenty four when I did that.
And by the way, it's thirty July twenty fourth is
the thirty eighth year anniversary of the premiere.
Speaker 9 (22:19):
Of the Thing.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Thank you for reminding me that I'm mortal and I'll
be dead soon.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
And it's crazy, man, but that was such an extraordinary
story and performance.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
And I mean just boom, you were a household name.
Speaker 9 (22:32):
Well, thank you man.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
That's a lot to handle at twenty four.
Speaker 9 (22:34):
It was, it was, it was crazy.
Speaker 13 (22:35):
It's so funny because I think about it, because I'm
reflecting on this on this day, because the night before
Danny Veldez, who played my uncle and was also the
associate producer on the film, he literally said, We're going
to hand you the keys to the candy store. Yeah,
your teeth, you know. And it was good advice, man,
it really really was. But the caps look good.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
Lou Diamond Phillips is with us, talk to us about
am I saying it right at two?
Speaker 9 (23:01):
Yeah? At two?
Speaker 13 (23:01):
You know it's it's the famous phrase, you know, at
two brute from the play Julius Caesar by Shakespeare. Uh,
And and that that sums it up. It's I play
a director who has mounted a regional theater production of
a of at two. Uh. He's a puristuh, an idealist,
a bit pretentious. Uh, but he also thinks that the
(23:23):
hunky young guy who got the role through nepotism who's
playing Brutus is stooping his wife.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
So let the.
Speaker 13 (23:32):
Exactly and find Shakespeare in othello like fashion. The jealousy
and the rage and the insecurity and all all of
that start to uh to escalate, and you know there's
a blood bath pretty much.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Yes, uh, props fabulous.
Speaker 13 (23:50):
Unfortunately we uh have seen uh that props in movies
and yeah, well yeah it is, it is the real deal.
Speaker 9 (23:59):
And yeah, there a lot of daggers.
Speaker 13 (24:00):
There's a lot of daggers flying around and two uh
uh so.
Speaker 9 (24:05):
Uh, you know, without spoiling anything. It gets very twisted.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
What does it remind I mean, how would you describe this?
You know, I thought a little bit of what was
the drummering? They were all in drummer school. The guy
that does the insurance commercially is such a great actor?
Uh JK.
Speaker 9 (24:20):
Simmons.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Is a little bit of that to it, Isn't there
kind of don't you think?
Speaker 6 (24:23):
Yes?
Speaker 9 (24:23):
Yes? Because sure, because Brent is is that demanding.
Speaker 13 (24:27):
Is that he's a sociopath, you know, I and and
uh uh really, I mean it's all about the theater
and about the art and everything else, and and uh,
you know, he takes that to the end degree. But
it also reminds me of you know, like like the
revenge you know, thriller horror movies that Vincent Price did
yes back in the day, and those were those were
always so elevated and so wonderful.
Speaker 9 (24:50):
So it was, yeah, a bit of a throwback.
Speaker 13 (24:51):
I mean, some people have said it's like the Shining
meets you know, Birdman.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
That's a pretty good one.
Speaker 7 (24:56):
I like that.
Speaker 4 (24:56):
We'll go with that. Lou Diamond Phillips joining us it too,
is the new movie.
Speaker 6 (25:00):
Check it out.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
By the way, you got to work with somebody I
think is just terrific. I remember him in Oh, what
was the movie about Fox? What's wrong with my memory today?
I did you do that exercise I learned online that
supposedly connects.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
The two sides of your brain?
Speaker 4 (25:14):
But oh, the movie about Fox News and Roger Ayles.
Speaker 6 (25:18):
He was in that.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
He played Rupert Murdoch.
Speaker 9 (25:21):
Oh there, oh, there you go.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
I can't remember the name of it now, it's gonna
remember it immediately after we're done.
Speaker 13 (25:27):
But Malcolm McDonald was in that. He played Rupert Murdock.
He's just such a great actor. He's amazing. I mean
completely going back to you know, the iconic clockwork Orange,
you know, Stanley Kubrick. So yeah, I knew I was
in the presence of greatness and I knew it. And
Malcolm's wonderful. I mean that chemistry that you know, that
sort of bone on me, that that that you see
(25:49):
on screen is very very much, uh the nature of
our relationships. So uh, because we did these long takes
and these wide shots and everything, and it wasn't all
caught up, you know, uh, so so had to be
prepared and you had to come and uh, you know
that that tennis matches is exactly what you're watching.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
By the way, it's bombshell. Getting old is no fun.
Speaker 9 (26:09):
There, I don't even start.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Don't start with.
Speaker 7 (26:16):
No.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
I was just gonna say, uh, it really is kind
of everything. Uh that the stage. I mean you you
had so much to draw on this. It's a great story. Uh,
I bring up you and Malcolm McDonald. But there's a
lot of people that are not going to know that
they're going to be introduced to, including one of the
lead performers.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Just really amazing young actors, very very well done.
Speaker 9 (26:36):
Thank you. Yeah.
Speaker 13 (26:36):
No, I and the rest of the cast is is
quite young. They're wonderful and they they they really brought it,
you know. Uh, the heart is in there and uh,
it's it's such a special little film. It's just so
left of center. It's not down the middle. It's not
anything that you know you're you're seeing. Uh, And that's
that's why I I I love doing it and had
(26:58):
hopes that it was going to get out and so
now it's it's available to find this audience, which.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
I love, and it's gonna be what primarily through HBO or.
Speaker 13 (27:04):
No it's on video on demand on tons of platforms
I think, including fandango. You can run it, you can
buy it streaming on July twenty fifth, and for hopefully
weeks after.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
Yeah, so look forward on demand and lou Diamond Phillips
for a body of work that I hope you can realize.
And me and my staff we were going through everything,
and I was bringing up Goliath and Ranch, which are
two shows. I really love Goliath. I mean, of course
land Man. Now we got to get you on land Man.
Let you play somebody dark.
Speaker 9 (27:33):
I'm waiting by the phone for Billy Bob to call.
I mean, my gosh, he is.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Don't you love Billy Bob.
Speaker 9 (27:39):
He's fantastic.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
But then they started bringing up the Law and Order
character and I was like, oh, I remember that character.
And then we thought, for what began is such a
innocent portrayal of a set. I mean, can you imagine
what Richie Allens might have done had he not gone
down that day?
Speaker 1 (27:51):
I mean they had so much.
Speaker 9 (27:52):
Monycle imagined it a lot. Yeah. I mean he was
a pioneer.
Speaker 13 (27:56):
I mean one of the first people to you know,
to do rock and roll in Spanish and he was experimenting.
Speaker 9 (28:01):
With with global music.
Speaker 13 (28:03):
I mean he predated the Beatles with that, he predated
bol Simon and you know Graceland. I mean, Richie gave
rise to you know, to Carlos Santana, which was also
why it was such an honor to have Carlos do
our score, you know, and and to have him produce
all the music. I mean, really just just an amazing stuff.
I'm Richie, Richie, we'd be we'd still be talking about
(28:26):
him today.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
Yeah, he wouldn't be that old. He was seventeen years old.
He didn't look seventeen. He didn't write like he was seventeen,
he didn't sing and perform like he was seventeen. He
was he was a freak of nature, and you played
that so well. But the bottom line of our conversation was,
nobody plays a dark bad guy like one of the
nicest guys you'll ever meet. Loud David Phillips and Boy
comes together and it too. I encourage everybody to get
(28:47):
it on demand. Uh take my word for it. You're
gonna love it.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
Luke God, bless you, Thank you so much.
Speaker 13 (28:52):
Thanks so much for having me like what what a
what a wonderful man?
Speaker 4 (29:00):
July twenty fifth Today, It's now available put that on you.
I know a lot of you're gonna go see The
Fantastic Four in the theater. H download on demand it too,
because nobody plays a bad guy like Lou Diamond Phillips.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
What a throw.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
It's your Morning Show with Michael del Jarno.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
I just got this from Kathy and Nashville. I love
Lou Diamond Phillips and stand and Deliver always terrific. And
wasn't the bad guy encourage under fire? You know what
I love about Lou Diamond Phillips. Lou Diamond Phillips in
real life. What a what a wonderful man. That was
a great visit at too. And by the way, we
have the official time. It was seven minutes and fifty
eight seconds before I broke into.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
I thought it'd be quicker than that.
Speaker 9 (29:42):
Well we all did.
Speaker 4 (29:43):
Did you hear what he said? Don't even start, don't
go down, get me started. President Trump is off to Scotland.
It's mostly personal business.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
It was.
Speaker 9 (29:52):
Well.
Speaker 4 (29:52):
The tensions got even worse with FED chair Jerome Powell
as the President toured with a hard hat and held
him accountable for being about a bill million and a
half over budget and a three billion dollar billion dollar
project the president every think should have ever started. And
then hul Cogan's death, that's a biggie at seventy one.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
It's been a big week of deaths.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
And you know, uh, no sooner was that death announced
than Chuck Mangioni was announced. We already had Uh, Ozzy
Osbourne and others. Just a tough week, uh, losing iconic figures,
and all attention is on the Fantastic four. The first Steps.
It's to pick to cook at the box office. Expected
(30:31):
to do one hundred and ten million dollars, got off
to a twenty three million dollar start on its preview
day yesterday. Well, it seems that nearly all of Washington
is scrambling to get to thetala Hassee prison where Gallaine
Maxwell is willing to talk talk, she's singing like a canary.
And think about this, This woman is an untapped resource.
(30:55):
If you rewind back, she didn't want to do any talking.
Everybody predicted if she did, she'd be killed in jail.
So she never did anytime, and she could sing like
a canary. And the question is where could this go?
National correspondent Roy O'Neil is back joining us. Good morning, Rory.
This could get fascinating. This is the drip, drip, drip
of Washington. That's a little bit more like an open faucet. Well, right,
(31:18):
and this is also just the beginning. Don't forget.
Speaker 14 (31:20):
We're going to have day two of this sit down
with the Deputy Attorney General of the United States. But
she's also named in a House subpoena, so she's going
to have to talk to them before August eleventh as well.
Now we don't know the questions, we don't know the answers. Personally,
I'm more interested in the questions, to be honest with you,
(31:41):
I'm just curious why. I'm curious as to what's the
area they're trying. Are they more interested in? Who else
are they? You know, what's the what's the motivation? And
then why is that?
Speaker 6 (31:50):
You know?
Speaker 4 (31:50):
It's funny you Well, I think we're on the same
page there. My thought is, first of all, I don't
want a Department of Justice. I don't want a government
and I don't want it a mirror and people that
are interested in playing politics with this. This isn't about
getting to names and getting to big political embarrassments. This
should be about justice. So my take was all right.
(32:11):
All the names that came out came out in deposition.
They've all been sealed by a judge, so no one
can release those names. The one that Alan Dershowitz probably
he's the one that knows what the names really are.
And all of them, every person mentioned by these victims,
they're innocent until proven guilty, and they deserve a defense
opportunity in a trial, a trial that can't happen now
(32:32):
because he's dead. But Ghleainne Maxwell could bring up some
things that could lead to new charges and a new case,
and then that would open the door. But the modeive
better be justice for the victims, right exactly.
Speaker 14 (32:44):
And look, I think David Boyce, who represented many of
the victims, I think he's also seen some information that
might lead to certainly have names on the list. So yeah,
there's a lot of different moving parts here, but it's
still why is the Deputy Attorney General doing a witness interview?
Seems like you're setting in an eight hundred pound gorilla
for a job that would be done by, you know,
(33:05):
a smaller figure. So that's that's an interesting choice to
do that.
Speaker 4 (33:08):
Yeah, I think this is going somewhere and nobody's even
broughtup the word immunity because you could give her an
immunity deal.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
It'll be interesting to see how this plays out.
Speaker 4 (33:18):
You know, again, Dershowitz would know the most because he
was sitting in those depositions. And Dershowitz has said this one. Well, yeah,
but he said this much. There's nobody of a name
that you would be interested in that was really up
to something really bad that is in office. Still many
of them are dead or no longer in office. So
(33:41):
that's Dershowitz kind of saying, I don't think Trump's got
much to worry about, but to others, time will tell.
It kind of feels like I can never remember the
name of that website was at Ashley Madison when that
was just kind of hanging and people were like getting
ready to kill themselves, and boy that turned out to
be all. But in this case, if anybody knows it's
(34:03):
Gallayne Maxwell, and if she's talking, this could lead to somewhere,
Isn't that the bottom line?
Speaker 1 (34:08):
Keep an eye on this on right.
Speaker 14 (34:10):
Which is interesting though, because I thought we got the
memo two weeks ago this case was closed.
Speaker 9 (34:15):
Wait a minute, yeah, you said.
Speaker 4 (34:17):
There was nothing there we did this in the first album.
I want to just close with this significant deaths, and
it turned out they always happened in threes, and we
were covering why it seems that they go in threes,
and you did some famous threes in history. This one
ends up with Chuck Manngioni being four and if you
count County Francis and Bonnie Bobby Sherman and the guy
from Bogan's Heroes, yeah, the Hogan Zero's guy. Then you
(34:37):
had the guy from Shallow Howe. Then we had the
musician that died. It was really like seven this week,
but I think we all agree, all Cocan, Ozzie Osbourne,
those were the biggies.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Tough week for loss.
Speaker 4 (34:47):
All right, Roy's going to review the entire week and
his weekend dive here on hundreds of iHeart stations are
on demand on your I Heart app.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
We're all in this together. This is your morning show
with Michael hild Joano at the s
