Speaker 2 (00:19):
Two three, starting your morning off right.

Speaker 3 (00:24):
A new way of talk, a new way of understanding,
because we're in this together. This is your morning show
with Michael O'Dell John And just like that, we're back.

Speaker 4 (00:38):
I'm blink and a weekend is over. Time is don
rogue again here in the steerage of the boat. Seven
minutes after the hour. Welcome to Monday, August the twenty fifth.
You have our Lord twenty twenty five on the Urine,

Speaker 3 (01:24):
Is Michael d at iHeartMedia dot com.

Speaker 4 (01:27):
Almost left out my d Kremlin, dashing any hopes that
Ukraine will the war Ukraine will end anytime soon. President
Trump will host the South Korean president today. National gard
in Washington, DC. Now authorized to carry firearms and the
Powerball jack Bot no big grand prize hit. So it's
up to seven hundred and fifty million dollars. And despite

(01:47):
the widespread spread criticism and economic uncertainty for the company,
Cracker Barrel has not signaled that it will return to
its original does it.

Speaker 3 (01:57):
Does he have to return?

Speaker 4 (01:58):
Just dump your leaked new version, or just use it
online or use it on television.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
Just leave the signs alone, punt.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
It didn't look that bad though, I mean, seriously, they'd
have cleaned it up. Well that's the other side. Well
that's the other side, right. How How did we get
to where two people having an affair on their spouses
at a Coldplay concert went so widespread viral you know,

(02:31):
usually everything in the matrix is split, but sometimes you
just hit things that everybody agrees on and boom. And
that's kind of what happened with Cracker Barrel. So there
are some that would say this is nothing more than
a social media frenzy and not one to be taken
as serious as some have been taking it. So I

(02:52):
guess that a lot work its way out. I'm not
so certain though. Look at Red over there, you seem smirking.
Do you remember the show A Dealer, No Deal with
Howie Mandel, and they'd always have the banker. The banker
never spoke. You never got to see what the banker
looked like. He just saw his shadows up milling around
in the dark, getting ready to give the offer. Because
Redd knows exactly where I'm headed with this one of

(03:14):
our top stories today. And might this explain this whole
Cracker Barrel phenomenon. I mean, it could be the words
they're using in giving their reasoning. In fact, if you
look back at what I did.

Speaker 5 (03:30):
I started immediately Maca fought out of sea marketing development
for Krackerbarrow, and she started talking about the intentionalita of
the customer experience, and.

Speaker 4 (03:42):
You know all the change, and so what we heard
was corporate speak, and so the question becomes, oh, the
words matter, Yeah, they matter a lot. And that's what
leads to one of our stories to start the day,
which is a political piece called the Woke Words Democrats
should cut from their vocabulary. Now, the first question on

(04:05):
this topic is do words matter? And I think we
all know yes, they matter because in words we have
the power to inspire. We have the power to motivate
the case the cracker barrel, motivate you'd eat there more,
or motivate younger people to not see it so old
and eat there to hurt, to influence. The way we

(04:26):
communicate through words can have a significant impact on our relationships,
our work, our businesses, and are overall well being. The
words you speak to yourself. And I'm not like some
self help guru, but when you're standing in the mirror

(04:47):
or you're forming opinions about yourself, if you're doing it
based on your brain alone, and the words you use
to talk to your brain, well look out, I'm fat,
I'm a loser, I'll never succeed at anything, or I

(05:10):
am the righteousness of God in Christ, I am fearfully
and wonderfully made. I have been gifted and purposed for
a specific reason to add to his glory. And I
could go on and on right, I mean.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
Words matter. We don't even need that, do we. Let's
just cut right to the chase.

Speaker 6 (05:31):
Now.

Speaker 4 (05:31):
The next level would be, oh, what words? What is
the impact of the world? What is the You know,
radio is just sound. Whether you're laying in bed or
brushing your teeth or ready to hit the door. We're together,
We're having a moment, and then it's gone. Now, there's

(05:53):
a cumulative effect to all these moments, over days, over months,
over years. That's why if I came in one morning,
we're suit and tie. Jeffrey's first question would be who died?
Because the cumulative impact of being with me morning after morning.
Now he looks up. You see some hair in the
front sticking up. He sees a Yankee boy. That's showtime.

(06:16):
That's nerve, isn't it to still be supporting the Yankees? Oh? No,
they they avoided the sweep anyway this week. Again because
that's what he's used to seeing. So you know, these
things happen. They happened for a moment and then they're gone.
But they form they I can't use the word trigger

(06:37):
because it's one of the words that have to be removed,
but they trigger an opinion. That's why I immediately had
an impression. I couldn't even tell you why. There was
just something that's stunk about this cracker barrel story. It
was some of the words that were being used. And
as long as you keep using these words, you're not

(06:59):
going to be inspirational, you're not going to be effective,
and you're not going to be successful in moving people
in the direction you're trying. Now, the first thing that
this piece lays out is you can't talk your way
out of a political wilderness. Now that I think that

(07:22):
speaks to the trust. Remember when we use that expression,
trust has gained a drop at a time over a
long period of time, but lost in buckets in a moment.
And that's kind of where they find themselves. So they
would have to get their worldview, policy view, candidates messaging

(07:46):
right and for it to be right for a long time.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
Before they ever regained some of that trust.

Speaker 4 (07:52):
Nearly ten months after the twenty twenty four elections and
the party is still embroiled in self recriminations over or
where they're talking, what they're talking about, and now, thanks
to this report, the actual words they're using when they're talking, or,
more precisely, the words they should never utter again. In

(08:15):
a memo shared exclusively with Politico, the center left think
tank Third Way circulated a list of forty five words
and phrases Democrats should avoid using, like yesterday. Now, I
know you're already interested, right, what could possibly be these words?
I could stop right here and the rest of the morning,
because that's We're not here monologuing and lecturing.

Speaker 3 (08:40):
We're having a conversation.

Speaker 4 (08:43):
And we do that because I'm not a no at all,
and your opinion is just as valuable as mine, and
together our thoughts lead to better places than our individual thoughts.
So I could stop right here and say, gee, what
would your list be? I won't play that game, but

(09:03):
feel free to add some if you think they missed
any Now. These span over six categories, everything from therapy
speak to corporate speak to explaining away crime. And these
are the things the author believes makes Democrats sound like
the extreme, divisive, elitist enforcers of wokeness. So there could

(09:31):
have been no woke motivations whatsoever at Crackerbill Butt, you
use these words, then your signaling where team woke, and
the assumption will be the team woke is behind closed
doors in a conference room doing woke things, and I
don't want to we could eat it woke woke anymore.
In the document entitled was it something I Said? I
love the title of their document, by the way, was

(09:53):
it something I said? Third Way argues that to please
the few, we have to alienate the many. Boy, the
DNC should write that right on the door, like a
mission statement, right, because that's all they do. And you're
going to see in our Sounds of the day that
Bill Maher has identified. But they don't do it well
as Trump does. He's a king of not even doing

(10:17):
but grabbing a small voting block and winning them over.
Now he does have trust and they don't. He knows
how to talk to everyday Americans. Democrats don't. Oh, at
the end of the day, there's a reason why Third
Way is trying to teach the Democrats this.

Speaker 3 (10:34):
But let me cut right to the chase.

Speaker 4 (10:35):
With one minutes ago, So what are these blacklisted terms?

Speaker 3 (10:43):
When I read these? Note how many.

Speaker 4 (10:48):
Is the centerpiece of the Democrat Party? So you could say, okay,
DNC here's the words to avoid third ways researched it.
These things identify you as woke to people and you
can't win in this position. Now, the bottom line is

(11:10):
you take away about five of these and I don't
know what this party is anymore.

Speaker 3 (11:15):
That's the problem.

Speaker 4 (11:17):
That's the that's the trust built a drop of a
time over time, and you can't just put it in
a bucket and throw it away. But watch this privilege.
Oh you want to you want to be relevant again.
Stop saying the word privilege. Privilege is a proven failed ideology, worldview,

(11:42):
policy view. Don't even say the word privilege. Violence as
an environmental violence. Stop borrowing violence for your theories. Dialogueing, triggering, Okay,

(12:04):
this one got me. I haven't even heard othering. Is
that a big one?

Speaker 3 (12:07):
Othering?

Speaker 4 (12:08):
It is, really I've never heard it. Microaggression, I hear
to the point where I choke on it, holding space.
I've heard body shaming, of course, I've heard subverting norms,
systems of oppression, cultural appropriation, Overton window. You know who
uses Overton window. We have a contributor who uses Overton window.

(12:36):
All right, I'll say Chris Walker, essential existential threat. It's
all climate one day's an existential threat democracy and a
threat to democracy is an existential threat. The economy is
an existential threat, and ourselves the day, we have a
new extential threat. Stakeholders, the unhoused on houses just homeless,

(13:01):
right or connect people living in apartments or food insecurity housing.
This is their entire this is their language. Person who immigrated, birthing,
person cis gender dead naming, heteronormative patriarchy, lgbt Q, I

(13:27):
A plus alley ship, involuntary confinement. I mean, but so
many of this is what they say. I mean, all right,
So Red, what language would they speak?

Speaker 3 (13:42):
Now? These aren't just Michael? What would they say?

Speaker 4 (13:47):
I was just gonna say, what isn't killing this party?

Speaker 3 (13:52):
Well, part of the problem was that we were using
words that literally no normal people used. We were sticking
to messages that were so overly scripted that they basically
sounded like nothing. You mean, like the word salads you've perfected.

Speaker 4 (14:10):
We think language is one of the central problems we face,
all right, let me dismount.

Speaker 3 (14:21):
In scripture.

Speaker 4 (14:23):
In the Bible, it discusses out of the abundance of
our heart, our mouth speaks. I can find every word
and it may add up to fifty thousand that I
need to change or you know what, I can change
my heart and all the words will change with it.
The Democrat Party and so does the establishment Republican Party

(14:45):
to a great degree. Why both of them are losing
to independent becoming the exodus is to becoming an independent.
The two party system dying is not the end of
the world, maybe the start of America being great again.
But you can focus on the words the symptom, or
you can get to the heart and address the cause.

Speaker 3 (15:09):
This is your Morning Show with Michael del Chrono Vegas.
They finally win the US portion of the.

Speaker 4 (15:16):
League World Series, but go on to lose to Chinese
Type A seven to nothing and the Powerball jackpots at
seven hundred and fifty million. The South Korean President's coming
to the White House, and then k Kremlin says, don't
hold your breath for the stop of the work anytime soon.
Let's go to Tom and Canton.

Speaker 7 (15:31):
I had read online that they used that Cracker Barrel
used a DEI consulting group to come up with these ideas.

Speaker 3 (15:43):
Again, I don't know if it's.

Speaker 4 (15:44):
True, but yeah, no, no, no, no, one of them. You
can get rid of it. One of the appreciate you listening,
Tom very much.

Speaker 7 (15:50):
No.

Speaker 4 (15:50):
One of the board members also owns a DEI company
and thus the link and social media and thus the
content nation.

Speaker 6 (16:02):
Hi, this is so and so from such and such,
and my morning show is your morning show with Michael
del Journa. Hi, I'm Michael.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
I'd love to have you listen to your morning show
live every day. We're heard on great stations like News
Talk five point fifty k f YI and Phoenix News
Radio eleven ninety k EX in Portland and ten ninety
the Patriot in Seattle. Make us a part of your
morning routine. We'd love to have you listen live. But
in the meantime, enjoy the podcast.

Speaker 4 (16:34):
As I always say, can't have your morning show without
your voice. Keep using that talkback button or email me
at Michael d at iHeartMedia dot com. And it's important
to communicate with your host, David writes Michael. The second
hour of Friday's show was never available this weekend. Just
heads up, don't want to get Jeffrey in any kind
of trouble. Certainly don't want you to read this on

(16:56):
the air so that the bosses can hear. But there
was a mistake in the loading of the podcast this weekend.
Just wanted to make sure you were aware.

Speaker 3 (17:07):
You could not have said that off the air. What's
going on? What happened? Oh? I could have, but I didn't,
did I?

Speaker 4 (17:15):
The federal government is buying a stake and struggling chip
maker Intel bold move, But is it brilliant or a
billion dollar blunder. Roy O'Neil has that story in thirty minutes.
If you're just waking up, how would I boil down
the day? Well for one. After last week watching RFK
Junior and Pete Hegsath do what only the Marines can

(17:42):
get done in a gym, we saw the leading candidate
for mayor of New York City spotted and helped three
quarters pump out two bench presses. Over the weekend, Powerball
no winner, so the jackpot is now seven hundred and
fifty million. Your National Guard troops in DC are now
armed with pistols.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
And as I mentioned.

Speaker 4 (18:04):
Earlier, despite the criticism and economic uncertainty, Cracker Barrel has
not signaled it We'll return to its original designed logo
and sign and Summerland by the way you make it
all the way to the little League World Series, and
you win the United States Championship and then you go
on to lose to the International champion in the overall

(18:26):
World Series. That's still a heck of a season for
twelve year olds, all right. So they're all winners for
getting there and they're all losers heading back to school now.
So as Ayah was watching, I was trying to think
of a nice note to end. We get to welcome
two news stations, you know, in Middle Tennessee. And when

(18:50):
I think of, like Dollywood, for example, could have been
in Nashville, should have been in Nashville, right, no interest,
So Dolly heads back to home in the Smoking Mountains,
and oh is that the final piece to the puzzle?
The mountains, the hiking, the views, the cabins, the shops,

(19:13):
and then your Disney like attraction. It is the place
of my kid's childhood. You know, when I think of,
we've taken a lot of vacations, obviously, and then we've
gone to a lot of places. None are like home
away from home, and they have billboard campaigns like here

(19:34):
in Middle Tennessee, which for those of you who live
other places, you know, you might think, well, how far
are we can it be well. We're a really wide state,
all right, So like Memphis is all the way to
the west, and then Pigeon Forge is east of Knoxville
all the way to the east. So it's about three
and a half hours from Nashville. But I'll be driving

(19:57):
and aggravating traffic on a normal busy and I'll look
up and there's the mountains with a simple cracker barrel.

Speaker 3 (20:05):
Should be listening with a simple line, the mountains are calling.

Speaker 4 (20:11):
I have seen that billboard and gone home and booked
the cabin and bought the tickets for Dollywood. It's an
absolute treasure. And there's something do you remember the old
hymn we used to sing in church? It is well
with my soul. That's how I feel every time I
exit in Pigeon Forge, and and but see the other

(20:36):
one right next door Pigeon Forge, and oh in Gallinburg, Gallinburg,
I couldn't think of the word Gatlenburg.

Speaker 3 (20:43):
Shot glasses, t shirts and throwing stars. I'm telling you,
it's all these pastries. Oh. By the way, I do
have to say this.

Speaker 6 (20:51):
My wife, she buys.

Speaker 2 (20:53):
My energy barrows for the week of the show. And
normally I do prefer the Gatorade. But I get in
the studio this morning, and oh, to my delightful surprise,
an old friend appeared the big one hundred Crispy.

Speaker 6 (21:09):
Apple Pie met our x bar.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
Oh the textures and the caramel and the apple which
reminds me of of something else. So you know, Krispy
Kreme does the glaze jelly tonut that I love, sure, right,
and I like to take that doughnut. And the first

(21:32):
thing I do is I sucked the jelly out of
the little hole. I assume that's why little hole's there.

Speaker 3 (21:36):
Right.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
It's kind of like a tasty starter, if you will,
appetizer to the treat. But I don't stop there salivating
thinking about it. I use my leftovers to re stuff it.
And this weekend and I call it my fat Guy
Jared Deluxe, Chrispy greb horrible. I take jelly out and

(22:01):
then I stuffed the same glazed donut with crab meat
out grotten. That's right, crab crab a donut. And let
me tell you, I don't know when I do this
if I'm eating breakfast, dinner or committing some kind of
crime against nature. But it's absolutely delicious. I mean, you

(22:21):
bite in and your mouth is just like, oh, may,
is this dessert? Am I? Red lobster? Is this my funeral?
And you don't care. This is what I like to
think of as all the food groups in one yes,
crispy cream glazed creation beneath for shivering sugar glaze. Why's

(22:45):
a pillow of dough, tender and warm and kating. Not
the normal JEMs, but crab meat, oil grout in the
sweetness greet you first, and then the delicate fleeting before
surrendering to the richness of the blend.

Speaker 3 (23:01):
Try it.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
It's absolutely delicious. I mean, as I always say, why
does most luxury always have to arrive on China? Sometimes
it can be.

Speaker 3 (23:10):
Right with ton no, but I mean, what a treat
I forgot?

Speaker 4 (23:13):
How good these see seventeen minerals, thirty grams of protein
the meta exerpts that are right, and I don't know
what it's too good to not have a lot of
sugar and three hundred ninety calories nine grams the whole meal.
Well it's a meal replacement, of course, it is right.
Forty grams of carbs probably not good. Total sugar is
twenty nine grams. Yeah, no, wonder it's good. All right,

(23:35):
that's not as healthy as it looks, but it was it.
That's how you start a Monday office a prize like that.
So anyway, I was telling you this long story. So
you're just driving else. You see the billboard it says
the mountains are calling, and they are calling me to
all of the memories of the kids growing up and

(23:56):
going to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Ford. On that note, we
say hello to Talk one oh six point three, the
Talk of the Smokies and Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, and we
thank their president, Paul finkin operations director Steve Hartford. We
are now in the Smoky Mountains. Boys and girls, now loot.
Add that to the cabin kitchen table. And I was

(24:16):
thinking earlier, you know, I loved Landman. I had a
guy that was making the rounds in the neighborhood this
weekend and I needed some tree trimming, and he did
a terrific job. I just he looked like Billy Bob Thornton.
He talked like Billy Bob Thornton. In fact, at one
point I needed to talk to him again, and once
I got through the language barrier, they pointed me to
his truck, and so I walk up and the windows

(24:37):
are all darkened, and just to pass the jointa joe
slowly comes down halfway. He's sitting in his truck smoking
a Marlborough light with the windows open. Very billy Bob Thornton, right, yeah, yeah,
And I was like, well, could they also get yep,
no problem, no problem. But I love the way he
sold me. He takes the tour of the house and
he goes, well, I'm not going to lie.

Speaker 7 (24:58):
Now.

Speaker 4 (24:58):
Normally this kind of arbor arborist work would be five
six grand, right, but he's just knocking on door and
he looks at me.

Speaker 3 (25:06):
He goes, I'm not gonna lie. This be at least fifteen,
but I'm not going to make you pay that. I'm
sold right there.

Speaker 4 (25:14):
Nobody takes the time to sell anymore white patent.

Speaker 3 (25:17):
Leather shoes on. I want to sell it very good Thornton.
He goes, Nope, for you eight fifty. Oh my gosh,
you got it in a half. And I said eight fifty.

Speaker 4 (25:28):
He goes, and while I'm paused thinking, he goes, you
just say yes, and they're out of that truck, and
I went, yes, the door is open. I mean the
equipment came out. I'm telling you, I wasn't even back
to the door yet.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
I mean, what.

Speaker 3 (25:45):
Volkswagen here there? They got some, you know, good equipment.

Speaker 4 (25:50):
So the later when I added those other things, when
he was sitting alone smoking, and he looked at me
and very Billy Bob Thornton dies and everything, and he went, now,
a nice tip would I'm not going to charge the
extra for this, but a nice tip would surely be appreciated.
What'd you tip it? And so I said, well, so
I'll just add one hundred he went, I'll do and

(26:12):
he walked away.

Speaker 3 (26:12):
It was like black.

Speaker 4 (26:13):
It was beautiful because if you've ever watched land Man,
first of all, I am thoroughly convinced Billy Bob Thornton
is my new favorite. Now Billy Bob could show up
at my house and he read the phone book and
I'm I'm entranced. Have you watched land Man? Land Man Spectacular?
But land Man is Midland Odessa. Even though it's filmed
mostly in North Texas, there's supposed to be a Midland Odessa.
But we welcome the true western part of the state

(26:35):
of Texas and the great radio station News Radio six
ninety KTSM and El Paso, Texas.

Speaker 3 (26:41):
We're honored to be on in El.

Speaker 4 (26:42):
Paso, Texas and in the Smoky Mountains of Pigeon Forage.
On Talk one oh six point three they talk of
the Smokies. I believe those two make us one hundred
and three.

Speaker 3 (26:52):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (26:53):
Well, welcome to an add Thursday, which we're doing on
a Monday to all of our new listeners.

Speaker 3 (27:00):
That really was? That really was? Add was? Is it really?
In fact, I don't even know how you're going to
edit the welcome of those two.

Speaker 4 (27:08):
Stations, because I think they were separated by a fat guy.

Speaker 3 (27:11):
Yeah, well, it happens around here.

Speaker 4 (27:14):
Welcome, or as we like to say, it's like listening
to Stairway to Heaven.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
It just keeps building and you're glad you're along for
the ride, or we hope you are.

Speaker 4 (27:24):
We covered all eventually, that's our new slogan. All right,
forty six minutes after the hour, if you're just waking up,
we have your top five stories of the day coming up.

Speaker 3 (27:31):
Next.

Speaker 4 (27:31):
There is one story that we have to get to.
It's the latest Pew research. A majority of Americans continue
to back expanding early voting voting by mail and voter ID.
Another way of saying it is I got some bad news,
I got some bad news, and I got.

Speaker 3 (27:49):
Some good news. We'll have more on that in our
polls of plenty.

Speaker 4 (27:52):
Well, if you're living on credit cards and that's just
to keep up with groceries, gas bills, surprises, and you
know the interest rates are brutal, why keep paying twenty
percent or more to the banks when you could call
my friends at American Financing. They have mortgage rates in
the fives for some of you that financed in the

(28:14):
sixes and sevens, and some as high as the eights.
You need to call them anyway, but for the way
you've been paying for inflation with credit cards, you really
need to call them. Like yesterday. They're showing people every
day how to keep more of your hard earned money
in your pocket and out of the hands at credit
card companies. Right now, American Financing is helping homeowner save

(28:35):
on average eight hundred dollars a month, and there's nothing
average about your debt. Right using their home equity to
wipe out high interest credit card debt with no upfront, free,
no upfront fees, no obligation, just a ten minute call
with a salary based mortgage consultant, not getting commissions, no
high pressure. We're really here to help serve you and

(28:55):
give you some breathing room. And here's the kicker. If
you start today, you could delay two mortgage payments, putting
even more cash on hand in your pocket. Call American
