its called this is all we got.

Speaker 6 (01:41):
Oh that's funny because our best ups are called this

Speaker 3 (01:48):
Minus worse, because this is all we got.

Speaker 8 (01:51):
What do you got? Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:52):
This is all we got?

Speaker 5 (01:52):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:52):
I don't want that. We can find anti anti climactic.

Speaker 4 (01:59):
Uh, let's hear a cut seven, President Trump on commune mandamie,
are you.

Speaker 9 (02:07):
Urging or encouraging any candidates in the New York City
mayor's race to drop out to clear the field.

Speaker 10 (02:13):
No.

Speaker 11 (02:13):
I don't like to see a communist become mayor. I
will tell you that. And I don't think you can
win unless you have one on one Because somehow he's
gotten a little bit of a lead. I have no
idea how that happened, but I'd prefer not to have
a communist mayor of New York City. And you know

(02:33):
that's what he is based on his policy if you
look at his statements.

Speaker 8 (02:36):
In the past.

Speaker 11 (02:38):
So I would I would like to see two people
drop out and have it be one on one, and
I think that's a race. There could be one.

Speaker 4 (02:49):
So before I forget, because I forget this and I
kicked myself. I interned in nineteen ninety five at WABC
Talk Radio for Curtis Sliwa. Most of us know what
he is now because he's one of the people running
for mayor. This is the second run for mayor, and
he's a lifelong talk show host. He's the founder of
the Guardian Angels, the Red Beret people to patrol the

(03:11):
subways and such. And I got to tell you, I've
not seen Curtis since I interned for him. He was actually,
you know what I tell everybody here, and they know
what that. People New Yorkers that are in the media
know what I'm talking about. When you work with them
as an intern, there's a lot of jerks and he's
not one. And I remember he had me at the broadcast.

(03:31):
He's you know, broadcast communications. He did a live broadcast
and he had me with the microphone and the crowd
and I got to talk to people on the air.
I was like, I'm on the air in New York
City and I'm only twenty two.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Incredible.

Speaker 4 (03:42):
But anyways, I saw him yesterday. You can see a
picture of me and Curtis yesterday. He came to our
talk radio convention, gave a great speech, he got a
big award and deservedly.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
So he's a great talk show host. He's a great
person and this great city.

Speaker 4 (03:55):
So you can see that on my social media feeds
at Chris Crock Show, c hrisk okay, at Chris Crock Show.

Speaker 3 (04:01):
I wish him all the best and helpe he wins.
It's a great guy.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
But so Trump wants to make sure it's just one person,
and unfortunately it's going to be Mario Cuomo because he's
the only one that could probably do it. Is what
a lot of people think. I have to say. As
much as I disdain Cuomo for killing Granny's and Pinsion Fannies,
I understand it's true. It's reprehensible, but it's the best week.
It's like, it's like my best stuff. This is all
we got, and so what does Zorhand do well? First

(04:28):
of all, yesterday we played the audio of him lashing
out and angry because he'd have to possibly be one
on one with somebody and then get his butt kicked perhaps,
But now was Montdami duo. Today he's challenging Trump face
to face off on a live television debate. Why do
you think he said, let's cut out the middleman. Why
should I debate Donald Trump's puppet when I could debate

(04:49):
Donald Trump himself. Nobody thinks Mario Cuomo's a puppet of
of Governor Cuomo is a puppet of Trump at all.
In fact, he won't even Trump's endorsement, even if Trump would.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
He said, I won't.

Speaker 4 (05:03):
No, I'm not gonna take any endorsement from him if
you were too, not that there's been one, So why
commedy Mandomie says, let's just cut it out on a
debate Trump. First of all, Trump's the leader of the free world.
And what what his response should be? And you know
he'll do a better response than I'm going to tell
him too, but it would be I'm the leader of
the free world. If he wants to debate me, let
him get the presidential nomination on the on the Democratic

(05:23):
Communist ticket, and then I'll debate him as president in
my third term.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
That's what you know.

Speaker 4 (05:29):
Second of all, Madomie is saying I'll just call out
the minimum Trump because he knows that's not gonna happen,
because he is afraid to debate one on one with anybody,
because he will get his butt kicked because his statements
are so so communist and violent, anti police, and anti
family and anti hatred for Israel, and our Jewish brothers

(05:49):
and sisters are friends.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
So absolutely not.

Speaker 4 (05:53):
But that's the kind of failure is And don't let
don't ever forget what I'll tell you about this today,
And don't believe me. Look at the knight Zorhan won
the nominee for the Democrat ticket in New York City
pre mayor. Look at all the people in the crowd
jumping down, screaming and say, I can't believe we did this.
They're all white, Almost every one of them are white.

(06:13):
And they're young. They're white, young people who earn between
one hundred thousand and three hundred thousand or above. And
they young, affluent whites are who put him in and
they're good ignorant young white people who literally and I'm
not using whit its pejority. I'm just describing what the
population is. It is not the African American or black
of brown people.

Speaker 3 (06:33):
It is not the lower class or you poverished or
or just above poverty working class people. It's not them.
They don't want him. They're not stupid. The whites are that.

Speaker 4 (06:44):
The whites that want him are because they did not
learn socialism, they did not learn communist and they don't
know the effects of it, that it kills millions and
million has killed millions and millions of stars for millions
and millions of people. Now, if you want to chime
in on that, of course, hit that talkback button on
your iheartstream. Am I offer any of this stuff? Producer
Red and and and Jeff with con man DOMI my my,

(07:05):
By the way, I'm gonna ask, I'm gonna ask folks
if you want to talk back on this one. What
what should Trump do? And what why do you think
Montdommie is doing this saying, you know, I want to
debate Trump, come out the middleman, all right? Do you
think he's afraid to debate? Do you think he's afraid
to debate, uh, one on one for for coma.

Speaker 12 (07:26):
I think he is actually well he he certainly is,
but he'll he would. He's making an offer he knows
he can never get, so he sounds big in the process.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
He's all he's all talk.

Speaker 4 (07:36):
So when he knows he's not going to get it,
and he says that he's so he he said, so
he looks big. That means what I believe is and
and and and what it means and what I believe
it actually is is that he's little. He's not big
because little people won't go one on one with the
one guy who's the number one person to go against.
They want to make up this grandiose plan that will

(07:58):
never happen and look like they're big, but they're not.
And when you want to look big, that means you're
not big, which means you're little. All Right, we have
and before we play the audio from Harry Anton of CNN.
I saw the story in the Wall Street Journal, and
it took them a day or two and CNM and
they did a poll and they talked about it on
the air, which I'll play that for you in a minute.

(08:18):
But the story here from the Wall Street Journal Day
or two go is Americans, lou it's a it's a
Wall Street Journal and NRC poll uh And I read
the story and it's a headline Americans lose faith that
hard work leads to economic gains. And I'm going to
tell you right now that I am an optimist. I'm

(08:41):
an optimist with whether it be in my business. I
think that no matter what people do, what the industry
does with cutbacks, I think there's always a job for
somebody who's very talented and who's good, no matter what
the situation is. And I think in our country, no
matter how heart how hard it is for you and
I with inflation for Bidenomics, no matter how hard things

(09:05):
are right now, whether you think that's the tariffs or
anything else, does not matter. I'm telling you, if you
want to succeed, you will succeed. And there is nothing
in this country that is holding you back but yourself.
And if you think you're not earning enough money, if
you think that you're not able to do it, and
you're on a you know your combined income as eighty thousand,
one hundred thousand, one hundred and fifty thousand, and so

(09:27):
many these people in here are making more than that,
and they're be wording and moaning about this. You know
they're being and moaning quote unquote, and I'm telling you that.
My message, not to you personally, but to these people
complaining about this is you know what you need to
do if you need to zip it and figure out

(09:48):
you might not have an income problem, you may have.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
A spending problem. How dare you?

Speaker 4 (09:58):
I wish you could see my face, my my reaction.
It's just ridiculous. Are you spending money on alcohol? Are
you eating out a lot?

Speaker 3 (10:11):
Are you?

Speaker 4 (10:12):
Do you have five streaming services? Are you living beyond
your means? Do you have a seven year car pay?
If you can't pay off your car in three or
four years, five years is ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (10:24):
But I'll even give you five years.

Speaker 4 (10:25):
If you can't pay off that car in five years
or four years, you are in a car you cannot
of ford and then we're a pay of a car. Yeah,
but you can get a ten thousand dollars car that
should be just fine. The better version today is probably
ten ground. Unfortunately, maybe you can get one for seven.
But sell your damn car. Excuse my language, sell your
darn car. I did that when we were in between

(10:46):
jobs fifteen years ago or seventeen years ago, we had
a minivan. The payment we rolled alone into the new,
newer car and it was like four hundred something month
we sold that car.

Speaker 3 (10:55):
We took a loss of five grand by selling the corpege.
You know we did.

Speaker 4 (10:57):
We got a four hundred twenty three dollars payment a month.
You know, we we had one car. You know we did.
We made it work, you know we did. We paid
off our debt. You know we did. We sacrificed. My
wife couldn't stand me. My answer was always no, but
you know we did. We got that free. So I am,
I am, I am, I am. Now things happen in

(11:19):
your life, and that's different. I mean, I mean like
you have a medical disaster, you lose your job, or
there's things that happen.

Speaker 3 (11:25):
But I am very suspect on this, gentleman, Am I
is am?

Speaker 4 (11:28):
I too optimistic and saying that that really the the
idea that people will have lost paid that hard work
leads to economic gains. In other words, even when you
work hard, you can't gain I just don't believe that. Now,
even now with anything, do you in our environment do
you and maybe you're disagree with me.

Speaker 13 (11:43):
That's fine.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
I mean you can be wrong both you guys, did.

Speaker 5 (11:48):
You hear that?

Speaker 3 (11:48):
If you if you disagree with me, you're wrong.

Speaker 5 (11:50):
You do that.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
Yeah, don't feed the narrative over there. Yeah, don't feed that.
Don't don't pet the animal, don't don't feed that. Don't
feed the animals.

Speaker 12 (11:56):
Zoo work ethic is now what it used to be.
But some of the stuff is just really expensive. I mean,
college college ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (12:10):
You don't have to go.

Speaker 12 (12:11):
You don't have to You can do what I know. No,
you don't go to community college. Go to community I understand.
But some some some states, uh m hm, we spent
we have a thirty seven trillion dollars in debt. That
that's that's killing us. We've got to We've got to
bring that down.

Speaker 4 (12:29):
But how is that affecting how much money I'm earning
versus how much money I'm spending in my life?

Speaker 12 (12:34):
Creates inflation cost a living? Okay, But I does that
mean I could buy r or chicken?

Speaker 9 (12:42):
Right?

Speaker 12 (12:44):
We all we all started out hard, that's for sure.
We all ate our craft macro cheese over and over
and over.

Speaker 4 (12:53):
Yeah, they called me when I was in Manhattan interning
w ABC Talk Radio and date let them you seet
the same time of that summer, they called me noodle boy.
My friends from there were the dorms that I called
me noodle boys. So I ate was noodles tu po. Okay,
So you're saying you have some sympathy, but you you
tend to agree with what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (13:12):
Oh yeah, I.

Speaker 12 (13:13):
Mean you live, you live where you can afford. And
if that means sometimes you have to drive a hundred miles, hell,
I've done it.

Speaker 3 (13:19):
And guess what else too? Here's what Here's what I
was also going to say.

Speaker 4 (13:21):
I think people are living beyond their means with cars.
With you see these people with seven year car payments,
with their house.

Speaker 3 (13:30):
I mean, you don't.

Speaker 4 (13:31):
You can live in a in a sixty we bought
a house, and we could have bought a house for
way back when it was cheaper for two hundred sorry,
two hundred grand. The next year, well we needed to
wait a year. The next year that same house is
two twenty five.

Speaker 3 (13:44):
You know we did.

Speaker 4 (13:45):
We bought a smaller house. I didn't buy the house
I could have bought a year before. So I bought
it for two hundred and I got a instead of
a two thousand square foot that I wanted.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
It's all I wanted was a fourth four to two.

Speaker 4 (13:56):
We got to get a three to two and it
was sixteen hundred square feet. But you know we did
years later, about three or four years ago, we added
four hundred and forty square feet. Now we got two
thousand squif fo house is really nice and I got
a home studio on that four go. So I waited, yeah,
and I bought the house that was with it. With
it was not Here's the other thing. You don't listen. Clearly,
doesn't matter who you are hunching me. You do not

(14:17):
live at your means. You never live at your means.
You live below your means, because it's not if an
emergency will happen, it's when. It's not if your cow
will breakdown costing you twelve hundred bucks, it's when, period.

Speaker 3 (14:35):
This is your morning show with Michael Dale Chrono. Let's
hear some talkbacks Mike and Memphis.

On the road rage subject here just several weeks ago

zipping back and forth in lanes, jumps around me. Another
car or actually a tahoe, screams up pass me on
the left, catches up to the small car, arm comes
out the pasture side window and does a mad dump

(15:03):
at the small car.

Speaker 3 (15:05):

Speaker 7 (15:32):
Years ago, Russe land By warned about taking communism and
American government out of textbooks. When I was in school,
you had to pass a course in communism in American
government in order to pass in order to get a
degree in high school. That's taken out. And this is

(15:52):
where we.

Speaker 3 (15:53):

Speaker 3 (16:06):
It can still be done, amen, Brother.

Speaker 8 (16:12):
Listen.

or thirteen hundred The Patriot in Tulsa or Talk six
fifty KSTE in Sacramento, California. We invite you to listen
live while you're getting ready in the morning and to
take us along for the drive to work. But as
we always say, better late than never. Thanks for joining

(16:44):
us for the podcast.

Speaker 3 (16:46):
Chris Crockett from Michael Dose, this is what lack of
sleep sounds like. My host has been has been at
convention all week. Ody.

Speaker 6 (16:53):
When you're on like five or six stations a day,
do you do five or six shows?

Speaker 5 (16:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (16:58):
Right, I did not eight shows a day now, So like, uh,
Tuesday morning, I had like probably two and a half
to three hours, but to two and a half.

Speaker 3 (17:06):
Then like then it was like three.

Speaker 4 (17:08):
And the next day yesterday, I was so proud of
hit four and then and then this morning I think
I at four and a half maybe, and it's you know,
I'm like, I'm surprised how functional am But yet, can
you menagine funks i'd be if I had six or
seven hours you just you just not. I have to
come into the station to prepare. I have to come
into a certain time. I can't get in the building
because I don't work for the company I had.

Speaker 6 (17:28):
Not only that it is a studio and a facility
you know nothing about.

Speaker 3 (17:33):
Yeah, yeah, and I got to walk across the yeah.

Speaker 5 (17:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (17:36):
So yeah.

Speaker 4 (17:36):
When I'm at home, you know, we have a rhythm,
and when you do your rhythm, you can do about
a four hour preparation. But sometimes it's even more. But
for me, but you know, when you're here, it just
takes longer. Everything's different, you know. So it is what
it is. But yeah, but it's been fun. It's been fun.

Speaker 5 (17:52):
I picked.

Speaker 4 (17:53):
I was so happy I picked this hotel because it's
literally the short block walk, you know, like it's one
and a half, it's like five minutes, sure, and it's
just at best, it's that. At most, it's good. Okay,
So let's play some sounds of the day. We talked
about in the last segment. People who say, no matter
how hard I work, I can't get ahead, which again
I'm very skeptical of that. But I will say one
thing we talked about a little bit more during the

(18:13):
break Red nine, and it's very true that my son
is rightfully angry because the average age of people buying
first time homes have gone up to thirty eight. Now,
I mean, it's it's insane. There's no question. I'm not
going to argue that it's much more challenging. But I
still think it can be done. You know, might you
might not get a home for an extra five to

(18:34):
ten years, but there's other thing strategies you can do
to save your money so that when you're ready, you
can do it. You know what I'm saying, you shift.
What you do is you write it into the plan.
Does that make sense?

Speaker 3 (18:43):
Okay?

Speaker 4 (18:43):
This is this, this is that? What can I do
change this and that? Do I need to get an
extra job? I mean I did a talk show in
Dallas fourth for fifteen years, but in addition I was
filling in all of the country to make extra income.
So I did something to make extra money. You know
what I'm saying, You can do things if you don't
want to. If you want to, Just like a lot
of the Democrat leftists will say, you know, they think

(19:04):
you should work at as a fry cook for the
rest of your life and get a get a quote
ton quote unquote level wage.

Speaker 3 (19:08):
That's not that's a transitory job. It's for teenagers to do.

Speaker 4 (19:12):
And you know, so you you and if you want
to sit there and be a lump on a log,
that's your problem.

Speaker 3 (19:18):
But not for me.

Speaker 4 (19:20):
If I were to sit there and be a lump
on a log, I still be in Austin, Texas being
a producer making very little compared to what you know.
Uh you know, hey, you you move it. But no, no, no, no,
I was one my point. If you're look, you guys
are a little bit big time. I mean, you're kind
of doing a network. I don't know if you notice
that you're not doing one station in Austin, Texas.

Speaker 6 (19:41):
I got jobs. Red's got a couple of jobs. We're
all working hard. We're like you, buddy, I got I
got a couple extra jobs for you. I'll tell you
about left there. All right, let's play cut number nine,
All Sounds of the day. I gotta say that first
sounds of the day would play the big All.

Speaker 10 (19:57):
Right, this is this is the news, and that's why
more people are watching the cartoon Networks Lunebobbery runs right now.

Speaker 3 (20:06):
This is a gold stall in a past.

Speaker 9 (20:09):
You should have a government that just minds its own
damn business and leaves people alone.

Speaker 4 (20:13):
Oh my gosh, I can't believe you did. Mathe McConney, Right, dude,
like that? Yeah all the time. I say that because
I live into the great state of Texas. God bless it.

Speaker 3 (20:22):
Okay. Cutnumber nine's Harry Enton. The American Dream not possible?

Speaker 15 (20:27):
Does the American dream still exist? Or maybe more pointedly,
is it still achievable? As the Wall Street Journal puts it,
America is becoming a nation of economic pessimists, harrienton crunch
of the numbers on this one, I would ask you
for some uplifting news, but it sounds like there's none
to be found.

Speaker 9 (20:44):
No, I would say, America, we have a problem. And
it's not just the Wall Street Journal poll that came out.
I was looking at the ABC News poll that came
out last year as well. If you work hard, you'll
get ahead. That is the American dream never not true.
Now in twenty ten to twenty eleven, fifteen years ago,
it was fifty one percent who said it wasn't true.

(21:05):
Now look at this number through the roof. Seventy percent
still true. Look at this still true percentage falling through
the floor. It was forty seven percent fifteen years ago.
Now it is just twenty nine percent. So he basically
had a fifty to fifty nation on whether the American
Dream was still true fifteen years ago.

Speaker 8 (21:21):
But now it's over two thirds.

Speaker 9 (21:23):
Of Americans who say it's never or no longer true.

Speaker 3 (21:27):
How does this break down?

Speaker 15 (21:29):
Like, what group is seeing the most pessimism? Were the
most loss in faith of the American DREAMA?

Speaker 9 (21:35):
Okay, So why has this percentage dropped from forty seven
to twenty nine percent. It's being driven by younger Americans.
Look at this, the American Dream still holds true. In
twenty ten, age eighteen to twenty nine.

Speaker 8 (21:47):
It was fifty six percent.

Speaker 9 (21:49):
Look at where that number is absolutely tumbled to.

Speaker 8 (21:52):
It is dropped.

Speaker 9 (21:52):
What is that that's thirty five points to just twenty
one percent.

Speaker 8 (21:55):
We've seen some drop with senior.

Speaker 9 (21:56):
Citizens, those sixty five or older, but that's just been
a drop of fifty three to forty one percent.

Speaker 8 (22:01):
What is essentially going on here.

Speaker 9 (22:03):
Is the American youth have lost faith pretty much completely
in the idea of an American dream, and that of
course goes back to the idea of why there's poll
after poll after poll that shows that younger people, more
so than any other part of our nation at this point,
have seen deepening pessimism in their personal lives as well.

Speaker 4 (22:22):
Well, here's some good news that will help them feel better.
The jobs numbers just came in. US job growth remain
subdued in August a mid economic uncertainty. Is great news
for them. I'm sure this will make them much more optimistic.
Labor Department Friday reported employers added twenty two thousand jobs.
Figure was well below seventy five estimate. Okay, so let's

(22:44):
just give you something so you see you're run Well,
that's not good.

Speaker 3 (22:48):
That's not good news. I don't like.

Speaker 4 (22:49):
Trump's gonna have to double down and triple down and
focus on the economy. That's just all there is to it.
Read Do you look like you're like, look like you
just saw a ghost? Oh my gosh, you look like it?

Speaker 7 (22:59):
Really?

Speaker 3 (23:00):
When he just punts you.

Speaker 12 (23:01):
Someone, can someone just slap the fed chair right upside
his head?

Speaker 3 (23:05):
Oh for Joan Paul for not Llawy insist rates more
too late, Powell, You mean, yeah, exactly, that's exactly right.
You're right, good, you're right.

Speaker 7 (23:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (23:16):
Let's jump over to this is so important. Tim Kain
thinks that our rights do not come from God. He
thinks they come from government, which is the absolute antithesis
of where our founder said and what the truth is.
My God gives me my rights even if the government
will take them away.

Speaker 3 (23:35):
Let's hear cut number eleven.

Speaker 10 (23:39):
The notion that rights don't come from laws and don't
come from the government, but come from the Creator. That's
what the Iranian government believes. So the statement that our
rights do not come from our laws or our governments
is extremely troubling.

Speaker 16 (23:55):
So Senator Kine said in this hearing that he founded
a radical and dangerous notion that you would say our
rights came from God and not from government.

Speaker 8 (24:05):
I've just walked into the hearing.

Speaker 16 (24:06):
As he was saying that, and I almost fell out
of my chair because that radical and dangerous notion, in
his words, is literally the founding principle upon which the
United States of America was created. And if you do
not believe me, and you made reference to this, mister Barnes,
then you can believe perhaps the most prominent Virginian to

(24:28):
ever serve Thomas Jefferson, who wrote in the Declaration of Independence,
we hold these truths to be self evident, that all
men are created equal, and that they are endowed by
their creator, not by government, not by the Democratic National Committee,
but by God.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
Amen. Amen.

Speaker 4 (24:50):
There was a talk back we had earlier, right that
does He said something about, well, if the government can
take away your rights, and how couldst not God something
like that? Well, God puts. The Bible says it clearly,
God puts the government. It's Romans thirteen, first chapter. God
puts the government in charge for a reason. And if
you obey the laws of Lene you have nothing to fear.
If you disobey them, you should be feared. He gives
in the sword for a reason. But God also allows

(25:13):
bad governments to be put in for reasons. It all
is for His purpose, and sometimes we won't know until
we're dead. But nonetheless, Jonathan pot Hortz tweeted this. Tim
Kane doesn't think that our rights come from God. He
learned that when he was picking coffee beans to show
solidarity with a Stalinist regime in Nicaragua and I it

(25:33):
was hysterical. But I'm like, that, did that really happen?
I looked up and he did. In nineteen eighty five,
he went and he picked its beans with a Stalin
Stalinist regime in.

Speaker 3 (25:42):
Nicaragua to show like solidary. Look, I'm helping you.

Speaker 4 (25:45):
That is just that is frightening that people would vote
for somebody who and by the way, he I believe it,
I said. One of the articles I read said he
was Catholic and the bishop of a Catholic well known
Catholic priest slash bishop out of Minnesota. I guess he
does this massive tremendously listened to and watched the podcast

(26:07):
Massive Uh, and he's he said, he literally attacked the
heck out of him and says the antithesis of what
the church believes too as Catholics. So, I mean, anyone
knows that, but it's it's very scary that Tim actually
thinks that the rights come from a government.

Speaker 3 (26:22):
It's very scary.

Speaker 4 (26:24):
That that that mindset and that kind of a government
is what leads to uh, starvation and millions of people,
or jailing or killing your opponents for communism or or jail,
you know what I mean, or Marxism, I should say,
also socialism and so very scary stuff. Guys are coming

(26:44):
up next on.

Speaker 3 (26:46):
Your Morning show. Chris Crockett for Michael del jo It's
Your Morning Show with Michael del Journo.

Speaker 4 (26:53):
We got to talk to Rory O'Neill and National correspondent Rory.
First of all, we got the jobs numbers in moments
ago anemic.

Speaker 5 (27:01):
Talk to me, sir, Yeah, that's a pretty good way
to describe it. We knew things would be down, but
they're even weaker than expected. Payrolls rose just twenty two
thousand jobs for the month of August. That's less than expected.
So why is Wall Street celebrating? Well, probably because it's
almost guarantees the Fed will start to cut interest rates
now that they see lowering hiring. So that's something to

(27:25):
watch as a trend that this news, Although it is
bad for Main Street, that might turn out to be
pretty good for Wall Street.

Speaker 4 (27:32):
Rory, people are set and have been and I do
very much feel as many do that the said Jome
Powell literally has been so late on lowering interest rates.
What do we know about that and where this could
take us in that regard and how many points and such?

Speaker 8 (27:50):
Well, right.

Speaker 5 (27:51):
So the Fed has that dual mandate. They have to
do two things. They have to maximize employment and they
have to keep inflation around two percent. That two percent
number has been a bit tricky. That's been high too.
To nine ish. I think that lasts go certainly better
than the nine percent we saw a couple of years ago.
But now the focus is on these jobs numbers, and

(28:13):
what they're seeing is the job market is softening.

Speaker 13 (28:15):
Man.

Speaker 5 (28:16):
So I've said, it's getting back to where it normally
would be. It's a bit more normal. But we just
saw in some of the job's number data yesterday that
there are now more people looking for work than there
are vacancies. That's something we haven't seen in four years.
So we are seeing this pendulum sort of swing the
other way, which is why again it's more cover and
more investors think that that means we're more likely to

(28:39):
start seeing rate cuts soon.

Speaker 4 (28:41):
You know, the other thing that we were slated to
talk about as a national guard. First of all, it's
remarkable in a very good way to see what Muriel
Bauser has done, and as far as I know, she
has signed for now in perpetuity.

Speaker 3 (28:55):
For now. It doesn't mean it's going to be over.

Speaker 4 (28:57):
It might be over a month, but open ended the
guard to stay there and the surge of the police,
and am I right in believing that he's also Trump
still will be in charge of the DC police after
thirty days because she has chosen that.

Speaker 3 (29:11):
Is that accurate too?

Speaker 5 (29:12):
Well, yeah, yeah, that's a bit of a wait and
see because you're going to need congressional action at some point,
so she maybe want to sign off on it, but
it's going to need some sort of congressional action for
him to continue to have that state of emergency action
in the district. You know, the mayor has been walking
that fine line. She loved the fact that the federal
government is now paying all her bills. What a two

(29:34):
billion dollars beautification plan? Well, right, you know, a two
billion dollar beautification plan. She's got all these extra resources
that can be deployed and it's not costing her budget.
So yeah, so she's walking that fine line. She also
doesn't want the President exercising any more authority and doing
a full takeover of the district.

Speaker 4 (29:53):
So it's the federal agents, whether it be Borbatrol, park,
park police, or park you know, federal atf for all
that they're the ones that she's still supportive and the Guard, right,
that's what's openly open support.

Speaker 5 (30:09):
Right, Yes, And they've also decided to keep the Guard
in DC activated through the end of November. Those troops
that are deployed there from other states like South Carolina
and Virginia. I think they're scheduled to be there through
the end of the year, although that's alternative.

Speaker 4 (30:24):
New Orleans, well, I should say the governor of Governor
Landry has said, yes, please come to New Orleans. What
do we know about Boston? Chicago maybe coming up next?

Speaker 8 (30:33):
Yeah, Boston. I wouldn't hold my breath on that one.

Speaker 5 (30:36):
However, when it comes to Chicago, the governor says, look,
we haven't had many talks with the administration here, which
obviously they're on opposite.

Speaker 8 (30:44):
Sides of this discussion.

Speaker 5 (30:46):
But the governor thinks that they've been staging at an
old military based on the north side of the city
of Chicago, and he suspects that they're going to start
activating this weekend, perhaps with more ice age is going out.
You know, Immigration and customs enforcement is a big component
in all this crackdown to try to find the people

(31:07):
who are in the country illegally and start that deportation process.

Speaker 4 (31:10):
That's the Great Lakes Naval Base right now, walk Kegan.
Is my understanding that? Yeah, exactly, okay, I want you
to know too.

Speaker 7 (31:19):
Though.

Speaker 4 (31:19):
We also did get for space camp for you and
Michael del Jno to go on space camp.

Speaker 3 (31:25):
We're at what's red the number? I think?

Speaker 4 (31:26):
He says, five hundred and sixty dollars, five sixty, five
hundred and sixty two dollars and twelve cents.

Speaker 3 (31:32):
So we got ready, right, okay, so.

Speaker 5 (31:34):
Why don't we take the five sixty two and by
what is it? Divide that by two and would make
those Powerball tickets and let's see what happened.

Speaker 3 (31:41):
So, so then you get a chance to win in
the power ball that you get, Rory going to space camp.

Speaker 4 (31:45):
Wait so wait, wait, wait, but Rory, if you get
the power Ball, you and Michael can go to space
camp all the time to get right.

Speaker 5 (31:53):
Well, no, well, if we both win Powerball, we can
go on an Elon Musk ship and do the real
thing at.

Speaker 4 (32:00):
Yes, Rory, have a great weekend. It's been fun with
you this week. I appreciate you, sir. Thanks take care.
There He goes that was great. That was freaking great.

Speaker 12 (32:09):
Now we have that on tape. We have that on tape,
and we can hold him to that if we win.

Speaker 3 (32:17):
Okay, and and by the way, I would like to.
I would like to.

Speaker 4 (32:20):
I don't usually do this, but I would like to
donate towards the Rory and Michael Dozerna who go to
space camp fund. I would like to give two dollars
just to one. No, I didn't know that by giving
some money I'd be ridiculed. Ie, I didn't know you'd
be ridiculing me wanting to go to.

Speaker 6 (32:42):
Three Well, yeah, I mean if you want to have
you pitched anything rich, can you pitch him?

Speaker 12 (32:49):
Pretty much? The five hundred and thirty two dollars is read.

Speaker 3 (32:54):
Yeah, we just want to sell.

Speaker 4 (32:55):
We just we just have we started a go fund
me yet. Actually I don't do go fund me. I
do the givesent go. Okay, I appreciate everything. You guys
are a blast. It's been so much fun with you.
