Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's me Michael.

Speaker 2 (00:00):
Your morning show can be heard live five to eight
am Central, six to nine Eastern and great cities like Jackson, Mississippi, Akron, Ohio,
or Columbus, Georgia. We'd love to be a part of
your morning routine and we're grateful you're here.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
Now. Enjoy the podcast.

Speaker 3 (00:14):
Well two three, starting your morning off right, A new
way of talk, a new way of understanding.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
Because.

Speaker 4 (00:26):
Aquareness together.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
This is your.

Speaker 3 (00:29):
Morning show with Michael O'Dell Chudren.

Speaker 5 (00:32):
I was curious those government workers pay and unemployment.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
If they're laid off.

Speaker 6 (00:40):
Or in a shutdown, wouldn't they get unemployment?

Speaker 1 (00:45):
Uh, well, they could apply for unemployment.

Speaker 6 (00:48):
I don't know how you would do that in one week,
in eight days and all that, But yes, if if
the government shutdown should last a long period of time,
furloughed employees, they're generally eligible for unemployment insurance.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
Now here's the catch.

Speaker 6 (01:04):
If after the government reopens they receive back pay, they're
supposed to pay back the unemployment. I wonder if there's
some double dipping there. And anybody that's you know, doing
business online, you know with a mortgage company, you're probably
seeing the notices for those that are on furlough with

(01:24):
special deferment offers. There's there's a lot that goes on that.
This is why to shut up Congress.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
And do your job.

Speaker 6 (01:32):
What we need is a fair balanced budget, you know,
with no continuing resolutions. But as long as you're playing
this game was really hilarious. Is by that time they
work this political theater out and reopen the government, we're
going to be staring at another shutdown because there's another

(01:53):
one plan for right before Thanksgiving, and if this lingers
too far into October, you will have a solution that
lasts probably as long as it took to arrive at it,
because we'll be right back to shut down. This is
not checks and balances. This is dysfunction, all right. If

(02:14):
you're just waking up, keep those talkbacks coming. It's nice
to have a good, sane one. By the way, We've
had poetry this morning, We've had Rocky Balboa this morning.
I'm telling you, I don't know if it's the full moon.
I don't have a mood ring to do bio rhythms,
but something strange is in the air. But keep those
talkbacks coming. Using the iHeartRadio app. Can't have your Morning

(02:34):
Show without your voice. Well, if you're just waking up
nine after the hour. The government shut down enters day eight.
The President is suggesting that some of the furloughed government
workers could receive back pay, others won't. Some might be
permanently released. The law would require them all to get it,
So I don't know if this is just trying to
give a nudge to Congress. There doesn't seem to be
any plans for any big votes today. Members of the

(02:55):
Texas National Guard have arrived in Chicago, unwelcomed as they are,
and REPBI Director James Comya is set to be a
rained today on two federal charges. David Sanati's joining us.
He's our senior contributor. Kind of a polpourri of topics today,
will just in full confession. I do want to start
with one story that you saw this week, and I'll

(03:16):
follow up with one.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
That I saw.

Speaker 6 (03:18):
Yours was that when it comes to the percentage highest
percentage of fatality automobile accidents, drugs are involved. Mind has
to do with gaming, Yours has to do with drugs.
On the drugs front, what are we seeing, David.

Speaker 5 (03:36):
Well, Michael, we're seeing what people have been predicting for
twenty years that the legalization of medical marijuana would lead
to the legalization of recreational marijuana, and that recreational marijuana
would lead to drugged driving. Mothers against Drugged and Drunk
Driving has been talking about this, probably for two decades

(03:58):
as to what they're seeing coming. The challenge is there's
not a rapid test for law enforcement to be able
to give. Just like they're able to get a rapid
alcohol text test and get a blood level of a
driver's impairment, you can't get that in a quick way
with cannabis and THHC. Now you'd think that some bright,

(04:20):
enterprising medical students somewhere when we come up with a
way of inventing that, because clearly it would be a
real hit, because law enforcement would be greatly appreciative. However,
there's all kinds of rabbit trails to chase here, not
the least of which is the political influence of the
now cash rich marijuana business. However, the study, which has

(04:41):
yet to be peer reviewed, but was presented this past
weekend at a symposium, we have now the executive summary.
We have materials from that oposium that our team is
researching right now waiting for additional if you will, testing
on the study, but it's pretty straightforward. Two hundred and
forty six people over six year period were examined who

(05:03):
died in the autopsy. They found that forty six percent
of them had to weigh over the legal limit of
THC in their systems when they died. Now, this does
not talk about how many people they killed. So these
are the fatalities of the drivers who caused their own
death and in many cases, in some instances, other people's deaths,

(05:26):
as well.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
As whether in their car or in the car. That right.

Speaker 5 (05:29):
So the point is people are driving drugged and they're
killing themselves and they're killing other people. Gee, what a newsflash. Well,
now we have the evidence beginning to build. Why it
takes so long to get the evidence?

Speaker 6 (05:41):
Yeah, and I loved we had the poll last week
about individuals. A majority of America now is thinking that
all this sports gaming is maybe not a good thing.

Speaker 5 (05:52):
Finally, and people are starting to connect the dots. That
was really bad is if a persons stoned and got
a phone device in their hands and is in the
process of gambling away everything that they have and that
what they don't have, they ever had occurred.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Did they ever get into.

Speaker 6 (06:09):
I don't understand the disconnect, and I don't want to
make enemies of those who love these products. But we
all know that reactionary time when when you're drunk is slower.
We all know motor skills are diminished. How is it
anybody can make the case that this would be a

(06:30):
blind side. You know that we didn't know that driving
drugged would be as bad as driving drunk.

Speaker 4 (06:35):
Oh, there's no there's no question whatsoever, Michael. All the
research is out there.

Speaker 5 (06:39):
Here's the problem for all the folks that are affectionately
stoners from the seventies who now are the cool kids,
and they want to attack everybody else who's trying to
take their party way. You know, there's consequences to the party.
I don't mind people having parties, and I don't mind
as long as they're paying the price for the party.
The problem is innocent people are paying the price for

(07:01):
the stoners in our culture, and it's getting worse. And
the messages that we're sending to young people is just
drugs are cool. Finally all the old people got it
out of their system. We're done with all of them,
and now just do whatever you want, and you have
growing evidence that there is a huge, huge risk to
human safety.

Speaker 4 (07:21):
Now, we're never going to win.

Speaker 5 (07:23):
The public debate against the party is in the party people,
because parties are always cool and people would always rather
cheer the party than they would be responsible.

Speaker 4 (07:32):
I get that.

Speaker 5 (07:33):
So this is going to be an unpopular position. But
what needs to happen now is as these studies begin
to grow state by state by state, there needs to
be law firms arise that have the courage to challenge
the marijuana industry and tap their money.

Speaker 6 (07:49):
Well, because somebody ought to pay for this. I was
just going to frame the question this way. At some point,
sometimes common sense doesn't bring it forward. Sometimes saving lives
don't bring it forward. Sometimes lawsuits are what bring these things.
And you would think with I mean, if I was
an attorney and I had this study over a six

(08:13):
year period of time of two hundred and forty six
fatality auto fatalities, and forty six percent of them had,
you know, these these drugs in their system, I'm going
to make a pretty compelling case when I think my
client who was killed and her daughter was killed were
killed by somebody with this in their blood and then

(08:33):
I'm gonna I'm going to sue the distributors of these drugs,
and that might make a difference. But I think you
hit the nail on the head at the beginning is
where we should end, and that is there's got to
be some kind of the THHD stays in your blood, right,
so you're not gonna get away with it indefinitely, but
some kind of a rapid side of the road. I

(08:54):
would think you do the same test though, right they
they have different ones for drugs and for alcohol on
the side of the road.

Speaker 1 (09:01):
The physical test that you could still fail.

Speaker 5 (09:05):
Yeah, there's that. Medical science is a bit above my
pay grade at this moment in time.

Speaker 4 (09:10):
But surely we've got to have something.

Speaker 5 (09:12):
Maybe what is going to have to be required is
if you're impaired, you're arrested, and you're brought to a
testing center, you know, just forget the roadside convenience.

Speaker 4 (09:22):
We're gonna go ahead and bring.

Speaker 5 (09:23):
You in because we have to do something. But the
person who's behind the wheel, Okay, we get that they've
got issues, they've got problems. That level of irresponsibility is
either pure ignorance or willful disregard. In either case, they're
killing themselves and they're killing people. And I say, well,
they're gonna kill themselves, kill themselves. Guess what, They're killing

(09:43):
other people too. That's the problem. There's got to be responsibility.
You want to have liberty, you have to have responsibility.
And if people say, well it's my right, the old
adage your rights end where my nose begins, or the
nose of my children and grandchildren begins, and so this
is an irresponsible position. The big problem here Michael's story

(10:05):
that's not being reported is that at the state level,
the marijuana industry has infiltrated state houses, passed along a
lot of political contribution and big heavyweight influence money much
the same way gambling, right the same way as the
gambling industry.

Speaker 4 (10:18):
There's the link.

Speaker 5 (10:20):
You go to most state houses and I'm telling you
you can't get past the smell of the gambling lobby
and the smell of the stoner lobby.

Speaker 6 (10:29):
It's a lot of money and it's a lot of death.
And the two are beginning to meet. Will that more
with David Snati coming up in moments from now, did
you hear the best performing assets of twenty five are
not stocks, they're precious metals. This year, gold and silver
has risen a staggering twenty nine percent, and some experts
believe the gold and silver bowl market has just begun.
In fact, central banks are buying gold to protect against

(10:51):
the falling dollar and silver. Oh it's powering the future
with skyrocketing demand for solar evs AI.

Speaker 1 (10:59):
Silver's like the oil.

Speaker 6 (11:01):
So the question is how high could gold and silver soar?

Speaker 1 (11:06):
We'll find out.

Speaker 6 (11:07):

Speaker 3 (11:43):
This is your Morning Show with Michael del Chono.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
This is your day. This is your morning Show. The
government shutdown enters day eight.

Speaker 6 (11:52):
The President play rhetoric games over who's going to get
back pay and who isn't.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
The law suggests they all will.

Speaker 6 (12:00):
Members of the Texas National Guard have arrived in Chicago
and we're visiting with our senior contributor, David Sinati. We
do a lot of this one step forward, four steps back.
We've done it with gambling, We've done it now with marijuana.
We've certainly done it with vaping. So for all the
ground that was gained and just say no to drugs,
and all the ground that was gained against smoking, we

(12:23):
enter it all back in new ways. The difference is
when it comes to the marijuana or the THCHC. There's
big bucks for the government to make on gambling and marijuana,
and that's when they turned the blind eye. And now
we're seeing the deaths and roade fatalities. Forty six percent
over a six year study of those who died in

(12:44):
automobile accidents had the drivers had high THHD levels. So
we're driving drugged and apparently we didn't realize that would
be a problem like driving drunk. Do we have the
caller by the way with the news for what David
was talking about. I don't remember who it was, but
talking about the THHC company in Canada very close to
inventing what David was talking about.

Speaker 7 (13:06):
Well, there's a company in Canada that is very close
to being able to test breath like a breathalyzer for
a THC. You're talking about that in car accidents and
stuff that police aren't able to test it. I don't
know if they're about the pass or somewhere. They're using
it mainly for work right now, but they're almost there.

Speaker 1 (13:28):
It's called Cannabis Technologies.

Speaker 6 (13:30):
Cannabis Technologies, David. They are very close to a THC breathalyzer.
They're using it mainly for you know, employers with employees,
but it could be used for outside as well.

Speaker 5 (13:39):
So well, that's another interesting point, Michael. We're talking about
people dying on the highways, but what about the people
who are being injured in the workplace, or people who
can't get jobs because nobody's told them that if you
live your life stone and you go in and try
to get a decent job. That has anything to do
with anything and you're required to take a blood test,
you're not getting.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
The job, you know.

Speaker 6 (14:00):
I always use this analogy, like when we're talking about
pre Civil war in eighteen fifty. Imagine if they had
social media in the internet, how much more difficult would
it have been. Think about this time. We go through
this with the distraction of phones, We go through this
with the social dilemma and the lack of sleep and

(14:21):
the dependency on all of the information and stuff.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
And now we add stone to it.

Speaker 6 (14:29):
I mean, it's it's just not one plus one plus one,
you know, phone plus gambling plus plus.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
Social dilemma plus marijuana plus vaping it nicotine. I mean,
it's just.

Speaker 5 (14:41):
Yeah, nowhere to restaurants well, and talk about how dangerous
it is to drive. And that does include the fact
that twenty five percent of the people that are on
the highways today are on mind altering prescription drugs. So
what's the combinations And listen, it's no wonder we're in trouble.
But the corruption of this thing is the other part, Michael.

(15:02):
And that's that the politicians aren't just taking the tax
dollars and saying, oh good, more money for us to
balance budgets, to give more goodies away that don't belong
to us. There's something worse than that, and that's the
political corruption of unlimited political cancer campaign excuse me of
campaign contributions that I meant to say unlimited. The amount of
money that the politicians are getting and their parties are

(15:24):
getting and the packs are getting from the marijuana industry.

Speaker 4 (15:29):
They're throwing their money around.

Speaker 5 (15:30):
I mean, the stuff isn't all that expensive to make,
and heaven knows, they're making a boatload of profit from it,
and they're using it for political influence, so that that's legal, but.

Speaker 4 (15:40):
That doesn't make it right.

Speaker 1 (15:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (15:41):
Well, my son is in sports management, is major at university,
so we were having a conversation. I don't even think,
as much as I'm a sports fan, as much as
I am a radio personality, I've ever really looked at
the business of sports. It is one of the leading
industries in America that nobody talks about. If you look
at everything that sports touches, we're talking about ancillary and

(16:07):
sports related, you're looking at seven hundred billion dollars annually.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
It's enormous and.

Speaker 6 (16:14):
That isn't even including the gaming David, and of course
gaming has an interest in the sports, has an interest
in the gaming. It's now their leading advertiser. You're looking
at one hundred billion dollars and I'm telling you something.
Any industry that has one hundred billion dollars is going
to have a lot of lobbyists and it's gonna have
a lot of pack money.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
So it's bad. And guess what, it only gets worse, right.

Speaker 5 (16:41):
Well, the key to all of this is to understand
that these are addictive behaviors that tear people's lives apart,
and the government has invested interest in expanding them.

Speaker 1 (16:53):
That's bad.

Speaker 4 (16:54):
That's not the purpose of civil government.

Speaker 6 (16:57):
When we come back over time with david'sanadi, is AI
gonna usher in the mark of the Beast?

Speaker 1 (17:03):
And is it already here?

Speaker 6 (17:05):
It's all the buzz online, It'll be all the buzz
on your morning show and we continue next.

Speaker 8 (17:12):
This is David Peterson in Columbia, Tennessee, and my morning
show is your Morning Show with the Michael del jarna.

Speaker 6 (17:29):
Hey.

Speaker 2 (17:29):
It's Michael reminding you that your morning show can be
heard live each weekday morning five to eighth Central, six
to nine Eastern and great cities like Nashville, Tennessee. Two below,
Mississippi and Sacramento, California. We'd love to be a part
of your morning routine and take the drive to work
with you, but better late than never. We're grateful you're
here now, enjoy the podcast. Thanks for bringing us along
with you. This is your morning show. Don't forget.

Speaker 6 (17:50):
If you missed any of your morning show, you can
always catch the podcast.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
It's up by.

Speaker 6 (17:54):
Roughly nine Central or earlier every morning ten Eastern, so
you never really missed. Catch up when you can the podcast.
You can find the link at your morning show online
dot com. Right we're visiting with David Sanadi. This is
kind of the Pope reportion of it. There is the
latest Tucker Carlson that's getting a lot of reaction. It's

(18:16):
about AI and some of the chaosity I will create,
and some of the authentication that'll be necessary because of it,
and how a portion of it could lead to the
very mark of the Beast. So, now, David, you're a
little bit older than me, this was really big. I

(18:36):
grew up in the Hal Lindsay era, so late great
Planet Earth. There's always been a fascination with end times.
I remember being fourteen years old and there were a
lot of people that thought the President of the United States
had states at six sixty six on his forehead. So
there's been so many crazy understandings, and now the latest
is it's Ai that will bring us the mark of

(18:57):
the beast, an inability to commerce with a certain verification
number that everyone would have.

Speaker 1 (19:06):
How would we sort this out for listeners?

Speaker 6 (19:10):
Is it possible, yes, that that could be something the
Antichrist would use, But now why this and how is
this any different than all the decades before that had
its theories that bar codes were it, that RFID technology
was it?

Speaker 1 (19:25):
You know where I'm going sort it out for sure?

Speaker 5 (19:27):
Sure, Well, it's always difficult to talk about matters of
human history if you start at the end of the
book and try to work your way backwards.

Speaker 4 (19:35):
Because there's a story.

Speaker 5 (19:36):
That begins in the beginning God, and it does indeed
end with the word Amen, and it's at the end
of sixty six books and six thousand years of history
and writing. But if you start at the end and
try to factor all the pieces into where we are
at this moment, it gets highly speculative. So most people

(19:56):
have heard the word Antichrist, but they don't understand what
the bi Bible says that is a biblical term. What
the Bible is trying to say to us in that
there is a spirit of that which is dedicated to
be against God's revelation to humans on this earth and
to the sovereignty of God's lordship. There's always been a
rebel force and the rebel mindset. So it's that which

(20:19):
is opposed to God and to his revelation of Christ.

Speaker 4 (20:22):
So that is anti Christ.

Speaker 5 (20:24):
That spirit manifests itself on a regular basis every single
day in the world. But there is the concept in
the Book of Revelation that we get a view, a
parabolic view, an illustrative view. We get a view that
is not perfectly clear. Now people have tried to make
the Book of Revelation perfectly clear by adding the newspaper

(20:45):
to it circat Hell Lindsay, nineteen seventy threes. And that's
a good way to create a brand. If you're really
clever with it. You can do movies and all sorts
of magnificent things. Makes boatloads of money because people are
fascinated by the stuff. But in the end, it doesn't
mean we got to the truth, because the truth has
to be revealed and Christ himself told his followers in

(21:08):
the very beginning of the Book of Acts, You're not
going to know the exact specifics of the times and
the dates, because I'm that talling you. It's just that simple.
Look at what we do with the threads that we have.
Can you imagine if we had more details. So it's
not something that has been given for us to understand
in the concept of biblical revelation. So this is a

(21:31):
field of profound manipulation and pseudo spirituality. So we've got
to be very, very careful to be honest with the text.

Speaker 6 (21:41):
The office holder of a false prophet that precedes an
Antichrist who governs over the globe and the world. That
was less conceivable when I was a child than it
is today. I mean, none of us live like in

(22:01):
a locality anymore, even I mean, though we know geographically
we're in a city, in a state, in a country,
the whole world's in the palm of our hands. And
if something gets to the point where you can't tell
who somebody really is, I mean, the image looks and
I know where you're gonna head with this same way

(22:22):
we headed with the driving drug. A lawsuit could bring
all of this into perspective really quick. So a lot
of people are gonna have a field day, maybe even
us in my face, my voice, and it'll be me
saying awful things until I sue their pants off and
then and then that suddenly begins to get regulated. But

(22:44):
what kind of AI chaos could lead to the kind
of security measures that could lead to a tool that,
if it was that hour, someone could use.

Speaker 1 (22:55):
And how much time should we spend looking for that?
Doing what? You know? You're doing that when you're not
doing what, Yeah.

Speaker 5 (23:03):
You're doing that, when you're not doing what exactly right.
Yankee fans probably aren't paying much attention to this right now,
but there's a lot of people who are, including Universal
Studios in Disney, who have joined together. Now, remember these
are fundamental competitors. This is Comcast Universal, and this is
the Antie and the christ Right joining together in a

(23:27):
lawsuit against a firm called mid Journey, who is a
monster in the AI swiping, scraping, stealing and repackaging of imaging.
And if you and this is a vast, substantive, historically
defining lawsuit, and what Disney and Universal are basically saying

(23:47):
is you're stealing the pants off the mouse, okay, and
we're not buying it, and we have cutlery protection. What
people don't quite connect with is the history of copyright law.
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is constitutionally created.
There are very tiny fragments of constitutional authority that exists

(24:09):
inside the administrative side of government. USPTO is spot on
four square on constitutional construction. In other words, we've had
a patent office from the get go, and it's in
the concept of the constitution. That's how highly we value
copyright in the purposes of law. We've spent years studying
copyright law. We've spent years in court cases regarding copyright law.

(24:34):
And I can tell you the lawyers that do this
for a living are brilliant and a little scary.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
And how busy are they about to be about to be?

Speaker 5 (24:45):
Just like the marijuana situation is going to have to
be readjusted based on litigation because you can't get away
with doing so much damage for profit and hurting so
many people before somebody catches up with you. You can't
steal the pain ants off of Universal and Disney and
think you're going to get away with it.

Speaker 4 (25:05):
You just can't.

Speaker 5 (25:06):
And this is basically who's got the fastest getaway car.
These people are operating not under the impression of commandment
or law, which is thou shalt not steal, thou shalt
not bear false witness against our neighbor.

Speaker 4 (25:18):
Just don't do it. You're not supposed to know.

Speaker 5 (25:20):
Their attitude in the industry is take everything you can
until they catch you. Then we'll settle it out. We'll
sort it out. See that's dangerous mindset. And Disney and
Universal are now defending themselves. This suit's going to be huge.
It's a brand new suit that's only happened in the
last few months. It's going to take years and it
will be massive in consequence. How will this impact public figures?

Speaker 6 (25:42):
Though to have a video this part does concern me
that in the end you're not gonna I mean, I
could really go rob a bank today and everybody you'll
see the video go, oh that's Ai.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
Michael del Jorna would never rob a bank.

Speaker 6 (25:55):
Or you know there are people that will believe Patentley,
Oh he robbed a bank.

Speaker 1 (25:58):
I can't listen to him anymore.

Speaker 4 (26:00):
Excellent question and two separate questions, how do you know?
And then what do you do? The Disney Universal suit
is what do you do? Because they do know and.

Speaker 5 (26:07):
They can track it that the lawsuits are massive, the
thousands of pages of documentation.

Speaker 4 (26:12):
The other question is how will we know who is
real and who isn't?

Speaker 5 (26:15):
Okay, that's a very fair question, and how we protect ourselves.
The hope is that this case inevitably will go to
the Supreme Court and some of the definitive precedent that's
established by the court will trickle down to that question
of that wasn't you on that camera?

Speaker 4 (26:29):
That's fake?

Speaker 5 (26:30):
But more significantly, it is time for states to step
up and to pass laws that say you won't do
this in our state. That's the true momentum in the
energy of government is when the states decide there's a
problem and they're going to protect their citizens from that problem,
and then the corporations have to deal with that. In
regards to state law. Well, of course, does California have

(26:53):
a hope. But if just two states, New York and California,
had laws that strongly protect to personal rights against AI stealing,
it would dramatically change this game. Problem is you've got
to hyper liberal states. What are they going to do?
Are they are going to find their way out of
the out of the marijuana smoke to be able to
know what.

Speaker 6 (27:13):
So the issue is the intended consequences and the unintended
consequences of new technology. Get it Something Today is a
Tucker Carlson hour and fifty minute interview, and it basically
ties to some of the AI protections are going to
lead to the very mark of the beast in the
end times and scaring a bunch of people. That's the

(27:34):
difference between the timely story and the issue something I
want to introduce people to. You say, the ultimate answer
to AI is human agency. What do you mean, because
we're going to start pounding that a lot moving forward.

Speaker 4 (27:48):
Yeah, and I've learned that from people that are older
than me.

Speaker 5 (27:51):
You've seen the permutations of this going over and over
and over again. Expertise is hard to find in this
field because it's on the cutting edge. So you have
to go back in look at history and study with
people who have studied history. Ultimately, the answer is shut
the stupid thing off. Okay, here's an idea. If you

(28:11):
are in love with your digital assistant, maybe you like slavery,
you like being able to get free labored, you like
being able to tell somebody to do something and they
can't talk back to you, and you don't have to
pay him or feed him. So there you go. Maybe
you like being the boss or the master. We think
about this. Look in the mirror. What's wrong with you?

Speaker 3 (28:34):
Right?

Speaker 4 (28:34):
Why are you addicted?

Speaker 5 (28:35):
I mean I watched the guy the other day talking
into his phone and I looked at him. I thought,
you are the most anti tech person. Know what motivates
you to feel the sense of power that you have
a digital assistant? You knuckle ahead, your slave to them.
Don't you realize what they're doing to you? Shut the
stupid thing off?

Speaker 3 (28:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (28:54):
I think I think that goes for Facebook. That goes
for you know. I had somebody sent me a question yesterday.
Somebody did something very highly offensive online. Uh, and should
I approach them and say something? And I'm like the
kind of person that would put what they did online.
You can't reach them, and they're not going to be reasonable.
You'll be wasting your breath. What you can do is

(29:16):
just block them, or better yet, just get off Facebook.
I don't know that that is a one hundred percent
translation to AI. AI is going to keep going and
it's going to invade far more areas than a social
media website. But that doesn't eliminate the human agency that
you can't be absolutely.

Speaker 4 (29:36):
Right about that point.

Speaker 5 (29:37):
But one thing I got to challenge you with respect
is that we must resist the spirit of inevitability.

Speaker 4 (29:44):
No, I agree, this is not inevitable.

Speaker 5 (29:46):
Disney and Universal are going to bust up at the
part of inevitability real quick.

Speaker 4 (29:50):
You know, you mess with the mouse and you're going
to have issues.

Speaker 1 (29:53):
How can I approach the bencher or I've had enough of.

Speaker 5 (29:56):
The no, but I get them, Jeffrey, I knew if
I kept logging.

Speaker 6 (30:00):
No, dude, this is the beginning of something that I
think once I don't know. There's a lot to be
concerned about. I mean, we are dysfunctionally divided right now.
It's nineteen sixty eight and we haven't had Genesis read
from the moon orbit yet to save the year nineteen

(30:20):
sixty eight, all right, so there's a big question mark.
But once we get beyond, if God's grace and mercy
allows us to get beyond this, this is where we're headed,
and we have got to begin to understand it. And
because not all of this has to be unintentional. Can
it can be very understood going in and then responded

(30:44):
to appropriately.

Speaker 5 (30:45):
But well, I'm not a stock expert, but I'll tell
you I remember the dot bomb bust and all the
people right now who are thrilled and giddy over the
massive amounts of money being made in the market over
AI speculation.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
Read a little history. There's gonna be other things too.

Speaker 6 (31:01):
I don't know how you're going to keep company secret secret,
because this thing just knows everything that's out there, and
if you ask it the right way, it's going to
give you the answer.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
Then you're gonna have company suing over their doc.

Speaker 6 (31:16):
There's a lot of chaos coming out in the wild,
wild AI West. But I wanted to address this first
one because a lot of people are reacting to are
we about to get the mark of the beast thanks
to the AI and you could it could be, you know,
sooner or later one of them is going to be right.
But but I want to put some perspective to that,
and we're gonna do a lot more on this in
the future.

Speaker 4 (31:33):
Yes we are.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
David Zanatti.

Speaker 6 (31:35):
You can hear him on the Public Square turner station's
nationwide here every Wednesday, and sometimes even comes back on Thursday.

Speaker 3 (31:42):
It's your morning show with Michael Del Chorno.

Speaker 6 (31:46):
Can I share one email that came at Michael D
at iHeartMedia Dot comments from Denzel.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
He says, good morning, Michael D. The Pizza Boy.

Speaker 6 (31:53):
I still enjoy your radio show, but I wanted to
warn you about veering off into heresy. You mentioned this morning,
Hal Lindsley. The contact in which I was mentioning it is.
I can think of every decade or generation that has
dealt with a wave of this is it, whether it
was getting caught up and left behind or caught up

(32:13):
and how Lindsey or caught up an RFID technology, And
now the latest is AI. AI is going to lead
to such chaos that we're going to need identity protection
and identity protection for money as well, and that everybody
will get a specific number and then that number is
the mark of the beast. I wasn't necessarily giving how
Lindsey any praise, nor was I even trying to get

(32:37):
into end times heresy versus theocracy.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
So I hope you understand that. But that's the latest.

Speaker 6 (32:45):
Now there's a lot of people again because we don't
deal with ABCNBCCBS. We don't have any common touch points.
People are off on the internet and all experiencing different things.
And Tucker Carlson met with somebody. The topic was AI
demon possession and how the market the beast is coming
by way of AI. And I just I want to
begin to address AI. But how do you need an

(33:06):
elephant one bite at a time? And AI is going
to be an elephant for many years to come.

Speaker 1 (33:11):
All right.

Speaker 6 (33:11):
The government shutdown is now in it's eighth day. Pam
Bondi testified before the Senate. Boy that got heated, and
all of these stories, whether it's the government shut down,
what to do with furloughed employees, you know, whatever it is,
nobody's on the same track. And this is not checks
and balances, This is not partisan opposition politics. This is

(33:36):
complete dysfunction, all right, And that was evident in the
Pam Bondi visit before the Senate. Roy O'Neil has that
story or your morning show National correspondent, Good Morning Rory.
That got pretty ugly fast yesterday, Yeah it did.

Speaker 8 (33:52):
You know, we just haven't seen really witnesses sort of
push back against senators like this when the Senate Judiciary
Committee has these oversight hearings, they pretty much expect to
be pretty rough on the Attorney General from the opposing party. Right,
you expect a bit of a contentious hearing, and the
senators expect that they'll be the one in the sound
bites on TV that night. But instead we saw Attorney

(34:15):
General Bondi essentially ready with opposition research on each of
the Democratic senators who were asking questions. Look, some questions
were for grand standing purposes, others were pretty legit, and
I think we still need better answers to some of
the things that she tended to pivot on.

Speaker 6 (34:32):
Well, this is always political theater and not really accountability
and checks and balances. So you know, she called out
a lot of that. The way it used to be
is you would have these hearings one party, if it
was if the witness was a part of their party,
they're being all supportive, the others being all attacking, and
the witness just plays it down the middle. Now we

(34:53):
have the witnesses coming and taking it right back to them.
It's a new form, and I think the left will
play this as this is the kind of crazy people
we have in the administration. In the White House, in
the cabinet, and this is how they behave. No matter
what tactic I just described, it's still dysfunctional and that's

(35:14):
all it was. Although there were some entertaining moments. Yeah,
she acted not a good trend.

Speaker 8 (35:20):
She acted just like President Trump would act, right, you
know when he gets questioned by a reporter, it's wait,
who are.

Speaker 4 (35:25):
You, who are you with?

Speaker 1 (35:26):
What are you doing? Oh yeah, you're fake news.

Speaker 8 (35:27):
But but I mean it's the same kind of much
more aggressive response to the question rather than taken. And
you know, she came in there with her prepared points
on each of those Democratic senators who were asking questions.

Speaker 1 (35:40):
Heartbreak, great reporting. We're we we'll talk again tomorrow. Thanks
for listening to your morning show.

Speaker 3 (35:44):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
