Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's me Michael.
Speaker 2 (00:00):

am Central, six to nine Eastern and great cities like Jackson, Mississippi, Akron, Ohio,
or Columbus, Georgia. We'd love to be a part of
your morning routine and we're grateful you're here. Now enjoy
the podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Good morning American, It's Friday two three.
Speaker 4 (00:20):
Starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Because we're in the stold.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
This is your morning show with Michael O'Dell Charny.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Personally, I have so much fun. It's not always good
to hear Paul Harvey's voice. I know that the week
is over again more than one by so fast, and
we'll be dead so soon.
Speaker 5 (00:42):
However, shit shutout shit at dark.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
With me, Nancy Belosi. But I'm really kind of dreading today.
Why well, you two are in like a state of
mourning over Ace Frehley. I mean, this is like, this
is major, major death in the rock world. I don't
care what anybody says. My childhood has been great, but
you guys are like, I'll never forget. I was on
another station in town, miserable, hated it there, and my
(01:10):
producer was like a big wrestling fan, and he's in
the studio and he's crying. I don't know what's going on.
Isn't there crying? He's distracted, you know. Meanwhile, you know,
I'm left flying the plane and serving the peanuts and
the soft drinks. And so finally we get to a break,
I go, what's going on? And some wrestler had died.
That's how YouTube were all day yesterday. Yeah, it's say,
it's a very very sad day. I remember going to
(01:34):
a friend's house. I would have been in I think
the sixth or seventh grade. I think yeah, sixth or
seventh grade. And when I got there, I had seen
Kiss on television and it looks satanic. This is even
before I was born again Christian. I was like, that's troubling.
Perhaps I was chosen even then. No, I digress, so,
(01:57):
you know, and I was just like, well, other than that,
never thought about him. Get to this guy's bedroom. You know,
we're hanging out and the whole bedroom is kiss stuff.
And he was the first person at that age that
I had come across, like, I mean, I would know
who Paul McCartney was, who Carly Simon was, who Jackson
Brown was, and I wouldn't. I would know band names
(02:19):
and people names, sure, but if a band was a
band like Kiss, I wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Know the names of the members.
Speaker 5 (02:25):
You know.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Do you know how there's those people like you sitting
playing cards and bring up some guy that was like
a keyboardist, you know.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
That you never heard of so and so.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
He was like and that was sitting there with his
albums and all this posters, and he was like, this
says fair ly, that's Peter Chris, that's and he's doing
all the names. Man, this guy these guys really loves Kiss,
knows what's going on. You'll hear an interesting story my parents.
We were raised a hardcore Southern Baptist and so my
mom said, I'll never buy you one of those. They're
(02:57):
devil worshippers, Eyton and seldom. On an Easter Sunday, I
came down and behind my easter basket was Kiss Destroyer
and I was like, see what is going on here?
I'll see your mother backslid and yeah, next thing you know,
you were into prostitution, drugs.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
What else did you experiment with?
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Seven? I am you know me, I'm not approved. I'll
never forget somebody went and I was like a teenager
Eagles are Satan worshippers, so I had to stopped listening.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
To the Eagles. I burned all my albums.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
Now the Who.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
I can't blame that on you know what people said,
because The Who was just a matter of all the
girls liked Who and boys liked Zeppelin, so you know,
you couldn't.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Like like the Who.
Speaker 6 (03:39):
It was.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
It was an unspoken thing. And then I'm like forty
years old and I put the Whose song comes out
and I'm like, I'm no longer participating in this boycott,
and I.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Was like, wow, they were really good.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
I went to buy them backwards masking things and burned
all my Kiss records and then had to go buy
them back. I'll buy them all back. Yeah, well, I
guess this is a generational thing. I was never a
big Kiss fan. You had texted me or was that
yesterday on the air, and You're like, favorite Kiss song.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
I was like, Beth, like what else?
Speaker 3 (04:17):
I can't even think of another one I really liked? Well,
I mean you got aah a record.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
On that right, Yeah, you got all the old stuff best.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
It was their commercial one. Yeah, that made it. I
actually kind of like back in the back in the
New York, New York Groove.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Yeah forrace.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
So he fell down later died of complications from a
brain bleed. Seventy four years old. Ace Freeley, one of
the founding members of Kiss, gone at the age of
seventy four. And my staff isn't a complete state of mourning.
When I saw Red rip a portion of his garment
and then Pop opened one of his most expensive bourbons,
(04:57):
I said, this is a day of mourning. You're gonna
crack wise all more and long over.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Why do you have to turn into your grandmother.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
I'm not making fun of him dying.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
I'm being I'm just saying, you guys are like really deep.
You're acting like I'm going to act when uh actually
I think I'll compose myself even better. But you're acting
more like I act will act when Neil Diamond dies.
Oh that'll be I didn't know that. Ace Frehley was
like that, Like, are you guys even prepared for when
Simmons dies? Gene Simmons, I mean, yes, you convinced he
(05:30):
never will? Yeah, Gene and Paul, I don't know if
they will. Think they have already been frozen. So was
Ace like, you know, I would like to start over.
What are you talking about? How are you two doing?
And what did Ace mean to you?
Speaker 5 (05:47):
Mean?
Speaker 3 (05:48):
You know what Ace meant to me? He was hilarious.
Do you remember the old Tom Snyder? Was it? Tom
Snyder had the old talk show on m Snider? Johnny
hated him by the way he had kids on the air.
My favorite line with Ace Freely was was Snyder, I
can remember it like it was yesterday.
Speaker 5 (06:06):
But you're kind of like a space man.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
No, actually, I'm a plumber.
Speaker 5 (06:13):
It's just that laugh man.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
He was just a hilarious guy, didn't take himself too
serious and even said in his memoir, thank you for
sharing that memory with us. He even said in his
memoir that he didn't do things correctly and kiss and
when you don't do things correctly, you don't get to
wear the uniform, and that's why he got kicked out.
And you have a problem going to these mini kiss concerts.
(06:36):
So I appreciate you and holdly sharing that. I can
go anything with your cheap microphone. You'd like to share,
keep drinking all right? Twelve minutes after the hour, A's
Freely gone at the age of seventy four. These two
are really were upset over that night. I give you
my I.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Did like this song, by the way, it's a groove man.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
This is the best story, now do we have? This
is back in the New York group, right, yes, this
is from a solo album. Can I do something in
honor of Ace and because I love you too in
your Morning? Can we make this one of our rejoined songs.
I think that would be be a nice way to
pay tribute to Ace moving forward with the show. I've
(07:17):
tried to work with it. If you're okay with me
just looping the first part of it, because that's pretty much
where the only place he doesn't sing. So it's a
pretty shallow, poorly written song, is what you're saying. Well,
do what you can. I'll do that, and we'll do
what we can to pay tribute. I am not making
light of this death. I just I cannot believe that
when we get to lunch today that Michael stiffness on.
We'll give each other a big kiss hug, and don't
(07:38):
even bring that up, because I am very upset. I'm
not going to get to meet Big John, and I
do expect to FaceTime However, we will cover the New
York City debate for Big John, who is in transit
to Nashville from Poughkeepsie. Out of all of that, you know,
I got to tell you from a ooh, I was
broken too. Bette Midler I cannot handle if she passes
(08:00):
from a distance. I'm my guess was or my take was,
And it'd be fun to hear from some others, especially
Big Jump. I suspect any moron easily pandered to or
on a youthful leftist bandwagon, they didn't see anything that's
going to change their vote with Mom Donnie last night.
(08:24):
So what's funny is when people watch these debates, sensible healthy,
you know, they're like, how can they not see through
this guy?
Speaker 1 (08:35):
He's a pandry fool.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
He couldn't explain where the ten billion dollars was gonna
come from.
Speaker 5 (08:41):
Now he's he's flopping on Hamma.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
You know, the morons that are supporting him with they're
two to fifty percent of the vote, they're not seeing that.
They're seeing his spirit, they're seeing his tenacity, they're seeing
his smile, but they're getting is a lying or it Islamist.
But I don't know that New York's going to see it,
and I don't think that debate hurt him last night.
(09:05):
I'd love to hear from you. That's why we have
the talk back button on your iHeartRadio app. We don't
rot on hold and talk radio anymore. You'll see a
microphone press it very professionally, like you're in the business.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Three two one.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
You're on, and it gives you thirty seconds to ask
a question or make a comment. But I would ask
red normally if he had the exact same takeaway that
I did. But I know he was in a state
of morning last night and probably didn't get to see
the debate or see it in a clear mind. More
of him than I've heard the entire cycle. I what
(09:37):
have vappit? No, I get that, I get that from
your perspective, But now go to thirty thousand feet I understand. Okay, yeah,
because he's got a great energy, he's youthful. I did like,
but he did did you did you see the part
like how are you qualified to be easy?
Speaker 1 (09:55):
I lived with my mother.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
I lived with my mother.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
I shop in New York City and I'm in a
freeze apartment. Well, we that made sounds of the day
and the newscast where Cuomo puts him in his plate.
What he's saying is he's inexperienced. And then but then
Mom Donnie, you know, shoots back, Well, we certainly don't
want your experience. You'll kill our mothers in a nursing home.
So it was very spirited, very feisty. I my take,
(10:20):
and I'm really anxious. This is a two way talk here.
It's called your morning show. That means your opinions is
worth as much as mine or more to see if
you had the same opinion that that. I think, you know,
the guy's at goofball, but I think most of the
goofballs that support him probably thought he did great last night.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
But we'll break down the New York City debate.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
Slee would.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
I do get a sense that he's just kind of lost.
It seems to be a Cuomo Mom Donnie fight. And
then there's this guy looks like a referee who apparently
is also in the fight, though I never see him
throw a punch. All right, I know that sounds big
John is probably glad I'm not coming to lunch now.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
I still believe Michael he's going to come back. It's
a big night for him and.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
He'll whip It would have been good in the nineties.
I was working on my Big John for the lunch
today and now bucket. We also have the John Bolton indictment,
all right, so that makes call me Patsia James.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Now John Bolton.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
This is eighteen counts related to the handling or retention
of classified documents. We've been down this road before and
it was good for the goose. So here comes the
Gander and John Bolton. But you know the narrative, Like
I said, no matter. I remember, was it three months ago?
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Ish?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
I got a call from my brother and he was
just so frustrated. I want to see some people rested.
I'm sick of all this talk. I want some people
to go to jail. And I was like, settle down.
We got some wars to settle before we get And
I really do think that.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
This is where we're at. Trump is now.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
You know, we look at the matrix and we often
see the other side, but we don't see our own,
all right, So on the other side of the matrix,
you'd be quick to point out all the things that
they're up to. And so we're going to get the
people they did the same thing to Trump and get
them for the same reasons they got them, only this
(12:27):
time with Trump it was no one's above the law.
This time it is, well, here we go again with
Trump's ongoing effort to weaponize the Justice Department in silence
and jail's enemies.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
So it's kind of caught in a matrix.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
But I suspect just as the base of the Democrat
Party is telling them fight, fight, fight, don't give in
on this government shut down, there's been a lot of
people like my brother, probably on the right saying, hey,
if they're going to harass us, go get them too,
And so we're kind of caught in that. But the
bigger picture is finishing the security deal in the Middle
(13:02):
East and then getting on to creating peace and lasting
piece between Ukraine and Russia. On that front, the President
will meet with Zelenski today at the White House and Budapest.
We don't have a date, but the plan is to
meet with Putin in Budapest. So we got a lot
to cover today and a lot to understand, all in
a very respectful state of mourning. I want to assure
(13:22):
my staff and for some of you that are mourning,
the lack of Steelers defense would happen to the steal?
Couldn't that Bengals stolen in the last two minutes thirty
The Era of Flako thirty three thirty one. Last night
I had somebody ask me, Michael, I really love the show,
really like everything you're doing. Could you please stop getting
(13:43):
score Some of us are taping because we work overnight.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
I cannot.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
It's like, I'm glad that you're comfortable that I'm your
waiter and you can make a request, But I don't
have one table at a time. How could I not
give a score for one person and then for the
one hundred and two hundred and fifty thousand that want
to know what the score was because they fall asleep,
not give them. I can't win. I can't please everyone.
(14:10):
But he wanted me to do like trigger warnings all
read and I know it, and what's that supposed to
be out?
Speaker 1 (14:17):
You know what your mourning? You didn't mean that I'm hurting.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
The Mirrors and Jays are tied up at two two.
The Dodgers can finish this swep tonight with the Brewers.
We got a lot to cover today and only three
hours to do it.
Speaker 5 (14:32):
Back in the New York Groove.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
We got one chance to live this Friday, October seventeenth.
Speaker 1 (14:38):

This is your morning show with Michael del Chono.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
You can't have your morning show without your voice.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
That's why we have the talkback button on your iHeartRadio app,
and that's where we find Jimmy suits.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Jimmy doesn't need a phone.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
He could just scream right from the right, from out
the window and we'd hear him.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
Here.
Speaker 5 (15:02):
He is, my DearS, Jimmy from Hoven Brother.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Why are you're giving him such a hot time? It's kid, brother,
It's one of the best groups ever.
Speaker 5 (15:13):

Speaker 3 (15:15):
You should be loving on them.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
Could not be giving him a hard time. I was
with Big Job today. Brothers.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Why didn't you invite Jimmy.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
You could have Big John?
Speaker 5 (15:25):
I mean, can you imagine Big John?
Speaker 1 (15:27):
I want them Montadella slice it. What do you mean

Speaker 3 (16:01):
Speaking of Big John, the caravan and I picture. I
don't know why an Ole's ninety eight has made its
way from New York to Music City and he is
checking in on this Sleewa performance. So Big John and
his boys listened to the debate on the way down.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
It didn't go like we expected, but were still hanging
in there. The only good day is we had the
over the NFL game last night. Oh the hockey boys. Oh,
I am so jealous.
Speaker 5 (16:29):
Why can't we do something tomorrow?

grateful you're here. Now, enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Do have to like the emoji put my hand on
my chin in wonder for a moment. Boys, do we
really think it's a good idea to have cameras in
the studio?
Speaker 1 (17:36):
I'm not so sure.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Thirty five minutes after the hour, rise and shine, early
bird gets the warm, sleepy squirrel, missus the nut. Welcome
to Friday, October seventeenth Year of Our Lord, twenty twenty five.
If you're just waking up, we had the big debate
in New York City for Mayor. It was feisty. They
were swinging. Got some highlights for you coming up. The
former National Security Advisor John Bolton. Well, he said, as
(18:00):
he's just the latest victim, and you know the Trump
weaponization of the Justice Department. Meanwhile, the Justice Department is
looking at eighteen counts related to the handling. I've classified documents.
Oh that old chestnut again. And Kiss rocker Ace Freightley
is dead at the age of seventy four. We do
have a futurist, Kevin surreally with us. We could ask Kevin,
what are the odds Ace gets buried in one of
(18:21):
those expensive Kiss caskets?
Speaker 1 (18:23):
All right?
Speaker 5 (18:24):
Now?
Speaker 6 (18:24):
See you know I I'm all for that actually, And
what's interesting about this? This is such a great question,
by the way, big fan of Kiss. Devastating laws for
the rock and roll community. You know to everyone listening
to that, you listen to that that's a huge loss
of the community.
Speaker 5 (18:41):
But what all igacy?
Speaker 6 (18:42):
What a legacy? Yeah, of course, but for the for
the freezing your body after you die. I think this
is interesting and that people need to really consider the
implications of this because you don't have any say when
you get the thagged and there's no real regulation is
about in America? At least I've looked into this, which
(19:03):
you didn't think I was going to say.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Where you have you.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Have looked into everything that's futuristic?
Speaker 6 (19:09):
Can I give you my love it?
Speaker 5 (19:11):
No? I know, but here would have been my thought.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Everybody assumes, okay, freeze me and someday they can thaw
me out when they know how to fix whatever killed me. Well,
how do everybody assumes the best? How do you know
who's gonna unthaw you? For all we know, giant cockroaches
will roll the earth when they unthaw you up and
your lunch.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
I mean, but but go ahead, No.
Speaker 6 (19:33):
That's that's that's my point precisely.
Speaker 5 (19:35):
Or you have.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
Relatives in the future that you don't really want to
talk to you and you're like, wait a minute, you know,
but there should be I mean as the science becomes
more and more able to do these types of things.
Because people freeze their pets right now, people clone their
pets right now in Texas, and people like carry Silton
cloned her dog. I mean that that's like a fact,
(19:56):
it was, It's literally happened. There's a whole industry in
Europe because they have looser regulations than us. Go figure
as it relates to to cloning for animals and pets
and so these questions are what I like to get
into on Hello Future, beyond just the space stuff that
we talked about.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
Wait a minute, Wait a minute, that was your first
shameless plug ever on your morning show.
Speaker 6 (20:15):
Thank you from you, my friend.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
That's really is joining us now. On the cloning, you know,
first of all, you can't. You can genetic I have
twin daughters who are genetically identical.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
They're identical twins.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
Wow, but they're nothing alike, all right, So you know
I used to think, well, you think that's kind of sick.
I would have cloned my bulldog Joey. That's how much
I loved him. Why, But it wouldn't have been It
didn't because it wouldn't have been him.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
It would have just looked like.
Speaker 6 (20:44):
Him exactly exactly. But can I ask you a question
just to follow up on that? Which is which? Because
I'm fascinated by this. A lot of people don't feel
they like they have a different position on cloning humans
versus cloning their pets. They don't really care if people
clone their pets, but they obviously I don't think I
don't believe in human cloning. I'm sure you don't either, but.
Speaker 5 (21:03):
Or maybe you do.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
I don't know.
Speaker 7 (21:04):
I do.
Speaker 6 (21:06):
But why do you feel different about cloning animals versus
cloning humans?
Speaker 3 (21:11):
Well, now, if you're going to have like a real
serious conversation if if no, because things things creep. So
if if that became common cloning pets, eventually somebody go, well,
why can't I clone my son who died in a
car accident? You would just but I agree with you, So.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Listen, Kevin, my father got around.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
I actually believe that that Red my producer, is really
my brother. My dad must have been doing something on
the East Coast.
Speaker 5 (21:38):
Where were you?
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Where did you grow up?
Speaker 6 (21:40):
I grow up outside of Philly and Delco, which is
like the swing counties outside of Philly.
Speaker 4 (21:45):
Big.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
Yeah, probably it was probably having like uh, you know,
a Philly steak sandwich and Metro.
Speaker 6 (21:51):
Motake, not a steak sandwich. My aunt actually set up
my parents.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
We are we are so much, We are so much
and like we see that one. But no, I love
my dog. I think everybody has one dog in life
that you know, we talk about soulmates, that there's always
one pet.
Speaker 6 (22:09):
Uh, God's creatures.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Yeah, but it's just it's a precious one of many.
I think some of it is the way they hurt,
we hurt when they're gone, and then we don't open
our heart up for any of the future dogs. But
it seems like everybody has one pet that really gets
to them, and that was Joey, and I would have
been tempted to clone him. But yeah, it's kind of
the same reason like when we think of, oh do
we live in past lives, which I don't believe in either,
(22:32):
But we're always something great.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Nobody was ever just a plumber.
Speaker 5 (22:35):
You know.
Speaker 6 (22:37):
But so the thing with it that I really think
is a big idea.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
I love my dog's d O, who's.
Speaker 6 (22:42):
Named after Theodore Roosevelt, great president, and and but the
thing about cloning the dogs that I agree with you on.
I don't believe that we should be able to clone pets.
And this is a very big topic of conversation in
the pet world, to be honest, it's a huge industry.
Because I agree with you that it would creep into
(23:02):
being able to clone other things. They're actually thinking about
bringing back to life willy mammoths. I'm sure maybe some
of your listeners have heard about that and how they
are I mean, because they want to genetically engineered, regenetically
engineer these willy mammoth animals that roam the earth, you know,
thousands of years ago, to help with I don't know
what the environmental argument is. It to help with some
(23:23):
of the ecosystems and parts of the world where they
would roam. So Jurassic Park, when I write about this
in the newsletter a lot, Jurassic Park were not like
that far off from being able to do that. But
there are so many ethical questions that come with it,
and I think they're really important conversations to be had
just beyond like.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
About where the line is, and.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
We don't know.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
To be honest, Kevin's really is our futurist.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
He's joining us.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Well, I was just going to say, I think my
ox a lodel, who is four rooms away from me
right now, I think that was genetically brought back. They
were richly in the Mexico City area when it was
nothing but a giant swamp, and then they went extinct,
and I think they've been brought back. So when you
in an ox lodel is hilarious, it's like an underwater lizard.
(24:11):
But you know, these beautiful so I mean, we've done
it with some I don't know that I'd want to
do with the wooly mammoth, and I certainly don't want
to do it with a dinosaur. All right, real quickly,
let's talk about this California.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
New Digital ID law.
Speaker 3 (24:23):
Its backed by big tech, but it's opposed by Hollywood,
and it could become.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
Talk about it crazy.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
It could become a national template for regulating AI.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
So this is really fascinating because it's two giant industries
that people have across the ideological spectrum have very different
views on. But the coalition between Hollywood versus big Tech
is a fascinating policy fight. I think when you look
at polling, virtually all Americans, Republicans and Democrats agree that
(24:55):
there needs to be some type of restrictions for children
on social media because of all of the mental health
impacts that we've seen. And what they're doing in California
is very similar to what happens with what they've done
for alcohol as well as smoking and marijuana usage websites
and advertising and marketing for kids, which is they're saying
(25:17):
you have to when a parent sets up their device,
they have to put in the age of their children
so that they are that there are certain age requirements
for certain social media platforms. So whether or not this
is the right solution, it is the one of the
first solutions that has been put forward as it relates
(25:37):
to navigating the mental health impacts that kids have because
of social media. And I think it's going to be
a conversation that will be very dominant in the midterms
and the presidential cycle. I mean, what do you think
you hear from your listeners all the time? Do you
think that parents really want to see more restrictions on
children's use of their devices and social media?
Speaker 1 (26:00):
I hope.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
So there was a documentary, gosh, I bet it's six
years old now about the social dilemma, and these were
the very makers of the algorithms. This was the Google people,
the Facebook people, and of course they all had one
thing in common. None of them allowed their kids on
any of the things that they created, which should tell
you something.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
But yeah, it's designed.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
To get you to tune in, tune in often, and
keep tuning in. It's the algorithms are created perfectly to
create addiction. And that amount of screen time is not
good for your brain and its development and your sleep
and your development. It leads to the perfection culture and
this psychological impact.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
The next thing, you know, and.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
This hit my home, you start having eating disorders, isolation,
which leads to loneliness and suicide.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
So it is a very dangerous game.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
I thought you were going somewhere different with AI and
that I don't think they see. I don't think many
have woken up to how that phone is destroying their kids' lives.
I know they haven't woke up to how AI is
going to confuse and destroy their lives because you're going
to think it's your kid on your iPhone talking to
you in a video call telling you Mom, I'm at
(27:16):
the police station, or if I don't get one hundred dollars,
or I've been kidnapped, if I don't get a hundred
thousand dollars, You're going to think it's them, and it's
not so.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
But the Hollywood wanted.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
The Hollywood's fascinating because the AI product. I mean this,
this fake woman has a name, she has you know, merch,
she's and is probably a better actress than anybody that
can live and do it. This is a real problem
for Hollywood, could be a real problem for talk radio,
could be a problem for podcasts.
Speaker 6 (27:44):
So you know, yes, I assure you. But what a
bot can't do is go and speak and connect to
the audience. And I do think that, So I think
that's the leverage that humans still have. But to your
point precisely, I'm a big fan of Mission Impossible movies.
And when I'm saying that, because in Washington, d C.
(28:05):
There's the Motion Picture Association, which is another non part
is an entity, you know, and they do the term
ratings for all of the things. And I was talking
to my friends there just about like what they have
the biggest difference between today and two decades ago. And
they're like, we're a tech company. We have to protect
intellectual property at all costs because of artificial intelligence and
(28:26):
everything that's happening. And to that point, if you think
of bad actors like the Chinese Communist Party in China,
for example, they actually during their students college exams weeks,
they have a kill switch and they shut off all
artificial intelligence so that their students can't use artificial intelligence
during their exam. So I mean imagine the teacher coming
(28:48):
in and saying, hand in your calculators for your math exam.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
I would have failed miserably.
Speaker 6 (28:53):
But I don't know if that's the right approach. I
think that feels for coding in that there's a kill
switch that the government can use. But these types of questions.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
About what's real, what's stake.
Speaker 6 (29:02):
And tech literacy for young people as well as adults,
by the way, these are the defining questions of our era.
I believe that, and everybody's gonna have.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
About and everybody, Kevin's gonna have personal choice. Right.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
So I have identical twin daughters. One was never interested
in any of this. She is going to be a doctor.
She's already, you know, serving at a pediatrician's office and
about to get her undergrad and then head to medical school.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
The other one was real into it.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
They don't They didn't develop the same so there's no
question that it's it's unhealthy. What I don't like is
the same previous generation that invited all this technology into
a phone into the hands of our kids at a young.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Age and are now going what the heck happened to
my kids?
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Is the same generation now that is inviting in all
this AI and they don't know all that they're inviting
in with it. I don't invite a bunch of strangers
into my home and then figure out what the negatives are.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Utimately know everybody I invite in my home.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
And I think that's where I mean, this is my
shameless plug for you, and that is I would want
my audience to know the future is already here. The
time to understand it was yesterday. This is not crazy
we're gonna be on Mars walking around even though that's coming.
This is stuff that's already here. That's why I love
(30:23):
the name Hello Future. I love the host, Kevin Sirelli.
The podcast is on iHeart because all this stuff is
all ready here. And in fact, the big fights that
are going to determine the future are happening now and
they need your ears and they need your voice or
it's going to be too late one way or another.
They're gonna get it right or wrong, and you're gonna
live with it. How's that for a shameless plug.
Speaker 6 (30:45):
I appreciate that, And I think what's what I hope
people realize is like we we have to demand new ideas.
We have to demand new ideas because the policymakers, you know,
regardless regardless of who they are, I think they need
to on whatever side of the aisle, and there are
a couple who do a great job. But we need
to be demanding new ideas for the future because they're
(31:06):
thinking of fights from you know, the past, and we
need to be set up for our country's long term
success so that when we turn five hundred years old,
we are still ahead of China.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
By the way, Kevin, I appreciate your enthusiasm and intelligence
today because I know you're very upset that Paul Scrimmish
has passed away. A lot of you don't know who
Paul is. He'll be born in one hundred years from now.
He's a great, great singer. And Kevin, already, being a futurist,
has experienced his music and his mourning his death as
(31:38):
the rest of us are focused on. He's freely this
morning the Futurist, kevin'sireally the show. Hello Future, It's on
your iHeart app. It's always fun to visit. I love you, my.
Speaker 6 (31:47):
Brother, Thank you, thank you, Boss. Appreciate you very very much,
thank you, thank you.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
You got it.
Speaker 4 (31:53):
It's your morning show with Michael del Chano.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Could you imagine waking up a couple one hundred years
from now in the first pace you see is the
fount you Oh.
Speaker 5 (32:06):
Hell, no Bob.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
Bobs a sippy Bob getting cremated.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
Oh my gosh, you people are nuts.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
And I love it in my cereal.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
Fifty five minutes after the hour, John Bolton, former National
Security advisor for Trump first term, has been indicted second term.
Speaker 5 (32:28):
Trump reacted to the news from the Oval office.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
I didn't know that.
Speaker 3 (32:32):
You tell me for the first time.
Speaker 5 (32:33):
But I think he's, you know, a bad person.
Speaker 3 (32:36):
I think he's.
Speaker 6 (32:36):
A bad guy.
Speaker 5 (32:39):
Yeah, he's a bad guy, too bad.
Speaker 8 (32:41):
But according to multiple reports, Justice Department officials in Maryland
brought the charges. Bolton's Maryland home and DC office were
searched by FBI agents in August, reportedly over the possible
mishandling of classified documents. Bolton became a strong critic of
President Trump after he left the administration in twenty nineteen.
Bolton also served as US Ambassador to the United Nations
(33:03):
under President George W.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
Bush.
Speaker 3 (33:05):
I'm Mark Neefield. What has happened to this show? Big John?
A listener is coming in. You guys are going to lunch.
Jimmy Smits is wanting to be my caddie today. That's
a good idea, And you know, Roger, he emailed me yesterday.
Well you heard about the I mean, now they're going
to be calling my house food. He's like, yeah, you
saw both got a diety. Who he thinks next? Oh,
(33:27):
I hope it's Adam Schiff. The first debate I ahead
of next month's mayoral election in New York City is
over and things got pretty testy and fast.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
Early the early debate fireworks came on the subject of experience.
Here's the thirty three year old mom, Donnie.
Speaker 9 (33:40):
And the definition of experience is not doing the same
thing again and again and hoping for a different result.
That's actually the definition of insane. Cuomo fired back.
Speaker 10 (33:48):
In other words, what the assemblingman said is he has
no experience, and it is not a job for someone
who has no management experience.
Speaker 5 (33:55):
The former governor with another singer up his sleeve and.
Speaker 10 (33:57):
His resume, it says he in turned for his mother.
Speaker 5 (34:00):
They talk challenges of the job.
Speaker 10 (34:01):
Any day you got our hurricane, you were God forbid
a nine to eleven a health pandemic.
Speaker 5 (34:07):
Mom Donnie had a singer of his own ready in.
Speaker 9 (34:09):
And if we have a health pandemic, then why would
New Yorkers turn back to the governor who sent seniors
to their death.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
In nursing home.
Speaker 5 (34:15):
Andrew Whitman, NBC News Radio, New York.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
Well, there's no end in sight when it comes to
the government's shutdown, But White House correspondent John Decker says
President Trump is content for now to have a hands
off approach.
Speaker 7 (34:26):
He's leaving it up to the leaders of Congress to
find some sort of compromise to fund the government, to
reopen the government, and that hasn't happened yet.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
The shutdown will continue even after the Senate once again
denied a GOP spending measure on Thursday. House Speaker Mike
Johnson Warren, this shutdown may become the longest in history.
Speaker 7 (34:47):
Those twenty four million Americans, many of them live in
red states. So the idea here is to put some
pressure on Republicans to at least make this compromise before
reopening the federal government.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
Well, you know how my guys are taking it.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
Guess Rocker, he's freely gone at the age of seventy four,
will have that featured a bit you.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
We're coming up next hour.
Speaker 4 (35:09):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
with Michael Ndheld, Joano
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. Now enjoy
the podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Good morning American, It's Friday two three.
Speaker 4 (00:20):
Starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Because we're in the stold.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
This is your morning show with Michael O'Dell Charny.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Personally, I have so much fun. It's not always good
to hear Paul Harvey's voice. I know that the week
is over again more than one by so fast, and
we'll be dead so soon.
Speaker 5 (00:42):
However, shit shutout shit at dark.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
With me, Nancy Belosi. But I'm really kind of dreading today.
Why well, you two are in like a state of
mourning over Ace Frehley. I mean, this is like, this
is major, major death in the rock world. I don't
care what anybody says. My childhood has been great, but
you guys are like, I'll never forget. I was on
another station in town, miserable, hated it there, and my
(01:10):
producer was like a big wrestling fan, and he's in
the studio and he's crying. I don't know what's going on.
Isn't there crying? He's distracted, you know. Meanwhile, you know,
I'm left flying the plane and serving the peanuts and
the soft drinks. And so finally we get to a break,
I go, what's going on? And some wrestler had died.
That's how YouTube were all day yesterday. Yeah, it's say,
it's a very very sad day. I remember going to
(01:34):
a friend's house. I would have been in I think
the sixth or seventh grade. I think yeah, sixth or
seventh grade. And when I got there, I had seen
Kiss on television and it looks satanic. This is even
before I was born again Christian. I was like, that's troubling.
Perhaps I was chosen even then. No, I digress, so,
(01:57):
you know, and I was just like, well, other than that,
never thought about him. Get to this guy's bedroom. You know,
we're hanging out and the whole bedroom is kiss stuff.
And he was the first person at that age that
I had come across, like, I mean, I would know
who Paul McCartney was, who Carly Simon was, who Jackson
Brown was, and I wouldn't. I would know band names
(02:19):
and people names, sure, but if a band was a
band like Kiss, I wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Know the names of the members.
Speaker 5 (02:25):
You know.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Do you know how there's those people like you sitting
playing cards and bring up some guy that was like
a keyboardist, you know.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
That you never heard of so and so.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
He was like and that was sitting there with his
albums and all this posters, and he was like, this
says fair ly, that's Peter Chris, that's and he's doing
all the names. Man, this guy these guys really loves Kiss,
knows what's going on. You'll hear an interesting story my parents.
We were raised a hardcore Southern Baptist and so my
mom said, I'll never buy you one of those. They're
(02:57):
devil worshippers, Eyton and seldom. On an Easter Sunday, I
came down and behind my easter basket was Kiss Destroyer
and I was like, see what is going on here?
I'll see your mother backslid and yeah, next thing you know,
you were into prostitution, drugs.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
What else did you experiment with?
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Seven? I am you know me, I'm not approved. I'll
never forget somebody went and I was like a teenager
Eagles are Satan worshippers, so I had to stopped listening.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
To the Eagles. I burned all my albums.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
Now the Who.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
I can't blame that on you know what people said,
because The Who was just a matter of all the
girls liked Who and boys liked Zeppelin, so you know,
you couldn't.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Like like the Who.
Speaker 6 (03:39):
It was.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
It was an unspoken thing. And then I'm like forty
years old and I put the Whose song comes out
and I'm like, I'm no longer participating in this boycott,
and I.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Was like, wow, they were really good.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
I went to buy them backwards masking things and burned
all my Kiss records and then had to go buy
them back. I'll buy them all back. Yeah, well, I
guess this is a generational thing. I was never a
big Kiss fan. You had texted me or was that
yesterday on the air, and You're like, favorite Kiss song.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
I was like, Beth, like what else?
Speaker 3 (04:17):
I can't even think of another one I really liked? Well,
I mean you got aah a record.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
On that right, Yeah, you got all the old stuff best.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
It was their commercial one. Yeah, that made it. I
actually kind of like back in the back in the
New York, New York Groove.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Yeah forrace.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
So he fell down later died of complications from a
brain bleed. Seventy four years old. Ace Freeley, one of
the founding members of Kiss, gone at the age of
seventy four. And my staff isn't a complete state of mourning.
When I saw Red rip a portion of his garment
and then Pop opened one of his most expensive bourbons,
(04:57):
I said, this is a day of mourning. You're gonna
crack wise all more and long over.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Why do you have to turn into your grandmother.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
I'm not making fun of him dying.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
I'm being I'm just saying, you guys are like really deep.
You're acting like I'm going to act when uh actually
I think I'll compose myself even better. But you're acting
more like I act will act when Neil Diamond dies.
Oh that'll be I didn't know that. Ace Frehley was
like that, Like, are you guys even prepared for when
Simmons dies? Gene Simmons, I mean, yes, you convinced he
(05:30):
never will? Yeah, Gene and Paul, I don't know if
they will. Think they have already been frozen. So was
Ace like, you know, I would like to start over.
What are you talking about? How are you two doing?
And what did Ace mean to you?
Speaker 5 (05:47):
Mean?
Speaker 3 (05:48):
You know what Ace meant to me? He was hilarious.
Do you remember the old Tom Snyder? Was it? Tom
Snyder had the old talk show on m Snider? Johnny
hated him by the way he had kids on the air.
My favorite line with Ace Freely was was Snyder, I
can remember it like it was yesterday.
Speaker 5 (06:06):
But you're kind of like a space man.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
No, actually, I'm a plumber.
Speaker 5 (06:13):
It's just that laugh man.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
He was just a hilarious guy, didn't take himself too
serious and even said in his memoir, thank you for
sharing that memory with us. He even said in his
memoir that he didn't do things correctly and kiss and
when you don't do things correctly, you don't get to
wear the uniform, and that's why he got kicked out.
And you have a problem going to these mini kiss concerts.
(06:36):
So I appreciate you and holdly sharing that. I can
go anything with your cheap microphone. You'd like to share,
keep drinking all right? Twelve minutes after the hour, A's
Freely gone at the age of seventy four. These two
are really were upset over that night. I give you
my I.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Did like this song, by the way, it's a groove man.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
This is the best story, now do we have? This
is back in the New York group, right, yes, this
is from a solo album. Can I do something in
honor of Ace and because I love you too in
your Morning? Can we make this one of our rejoined songs.
I think that would be be a nice way to
pay tribute to Ace moving forward with the show. I've
(07:17):
tried to work with it. If you're okay with me
just looping the first part of it, because that's pretty much
where the only place he doesn't sing. So it's a
pretty shallow, poorly written song, is what you're saying. Well,
do what you can. I'll do that, and we'll do
what we can to pay tribute. I am not making
light of this death. I just I cannot believe that
when we get to lunch today that Michael stiffness on.
We'll give each other a big kiss hug, and don't
(07:38):
even bring that up, because I am very upset. I'm
not going to get to meet Big John, and I
do expect to FaceTime However, we will cover the New
York City debate for Big John, who is in transit
to Nashville from Poughkeepsie. Out of all of that, you know,
I got to tell you from a ooh, I was
broken too. Bette Midler I cannot handle if she passes
(08:00):
from a distance. I'm my guess was or my take was,
And it'd be fun to hear from some others, especially
Big Jump. I suspect any moron easily pandered to or
on a youthful leftist bandwagon, they didn't see anything that's
going to change their vote with Mom Donnie last night.
(08:24):
So what's funny is when people watch these debates, sensible healthy,
you know, they're like, how can they not see through
this guy?
Speaker 1 (08:35):
He's a pandry fool.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
He couldn't explain where the ten billion dollars was gonna
come from.
Speaker 5 (08:41):
Now he's he's flopping on Hamma.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
You know, the morons that are supporting him with they're
two to fifty percent of the vote, they're not seeing that.
They're seeing his spirit, they're seeing his tenacity, they're seeing
his smile, but they're getting is a lying or it Islamist.
But I don't know that New York's going to see it,
and I don't think that debate hurt him last night.
(09:05):
I'd love to hear from you. That's why we have
the talk back button on your iHeartRadio app. We don't
rot on hold and talk radio anymore. You'll see a
microphone press it very professionally, like you're in the business.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Three two one.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
You're on, and it gives you thirty seconds to ask
a question or make a comment. But I would ask
red normally if he had the exact same takeaway that
I did. But I know he was in a state
of morning last night and probably didn't get to see
the debate or see it in a clear mind. More
of him than I've heard the entire cycle. I what
(09:37):
have vappit? No, I get that, I get that from
your perspective, But now go to thirty thousand feet I understand. Okay, yeah,
because he's got a great energy, he's youthful. I did like,
but he did did you did you see the part
like how are you qualified to be easy?
Speaker 1 (09:55):
I lived with my mother.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
I lived with my mother.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
I shop in New York City and I'm in a
freeze apartment. Well, we that made sounds of the day
and the newscast where Cuomo puts him in his plate.
What he's saying is he's inexperienced. And then but then
Mom Donnie, you know, shoots back, Well, we certainly don't
want your experience. You'll kill our mothers in a nursing home.
So it was very spirited, very feisty. I my take,
(10:20):
and I'm really anxious. This is a two way talk here.
It's called your morning show. That means your opinions is
worth as much as mine or more to see if
you had the same opinion that that. I think, you know,
the guy's at goofball, but I think most of the
goofballs that support him probably thought he did great last night.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
But we'll break down the New York City debate.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
Slee would.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
I do get a sense that he's just kind of lost.
It seems to be a Cuomo Mom Donnie fight. And
then there's this guy looks like a referee who apparently
is also in the fight, though I never see him
throw a punch. All right, I know that sounds big
John is probably glad I'm not coming to lunch now.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
I still believe Michael he's going to come back. It's
a big night for him and.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
He'll whip It would have been good in the nineties.
I was working on my Big John for the lunch
today and now bucket. We also have the John Bolton indictment,
all right, so that makes call me Patsia James.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Now John Bolton.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
This is eighteen counts related to the handling or retention
of classified documents. We've been down this road before and
it was good for the goose. So here comes the
Gander and John Bolton. But you know the narrative, Like
I said, no matter. I remember, was it three months ago?
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Ish?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
I got a call from my brother and he was
just so frustrated. I want to see some people rested.
I'm sick of all this talk. I want some people
to go to jail. And I was like, settle down.
We got some wars to settle before we get And
I really do think that.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
This is where we're at. Trump is now.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
You know, we look at the matrix and we often
see the other side, but we don't see our own,
all right, So on the other side of the matrix,
you'd be quick to point out all the things that
they're up to. And so we're going to get the
people they did the same thing to Trump and get
them for the same reasons they got them, only this
(12:27):
time with Trump it was no one's above the law.
This time it is, well, here we go again with
Trump's ongoing effort to weaponize the Justice Department in silence
and jail's enemies.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
So it's kind of caught in a matrix.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
But I suspect just as the base of the Democrat
Party is telling them fight, fight, fight, don't give in
on this government shut down, there's been a lot of
people like my brother, probably on the right saying, hey,
if they're going to harass us, go get them too,
And so we're kind of caught in that. But the
bigger picture is finishing the security deal in the Middle
(13:02):
East and then getting on to creating peace and lasting
piece between Ukraine and Russia. On that front, the President
will meet with Zelenski today at the White House and Budapest.
We don't have a date, but the plan is to
meet with Putin in Budapest. So we got a lot
to cover today and a lot to understand, all in
a very respectful state of mourning. I want to assure
(13:22):
my staff and for some of you that are mourning,
the lack of Steelers defense would happen to the steal?
Couldn't that Bengals stolen in the last two minutes thirty
The Era of Flako thirty three thirty one. Last night
I had somebody ask me, Michael, I really love the show,
really like everything you're doing. Could you please stop getting
(13:43):
score Some of us are taping because we work overnight.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
I cannot.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
It's like, I'm glad that you're comfortable that I'm your
waiter and you can make a request, But I don't
have one table at a time. How could I not
give a score for one person and then for the
one hundred and two hundred and fifty thousand that want
to know what the score was because they fall asleep,
not give them. I can't win. I can't please everyone.
(14:10):
But he wanted me to do like trigger warnings all
read and I know it, and what's that supposed to
be out?
Speaker 1 (14:17):
You know what your mourning? You didn't mean that I'm hurting.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
The Mirrors and Jays are tied up at two two.
The Dodgers can finish this swep tonight with the Brewers.
We got a lot to cover today and only three
hours to do it.
Speaker 5 (14:32):
Back in the New York Groove.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
We got one chance to live this Friday, October seventeenth.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
This is your day, This is your groove, This is
your morning show.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
This is your morning show with Michael del Chono.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
You can't have your morning show without your voice.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
That's why we have the talkback button on your iHeartRadio app,
and that's where we find Jimmy suits.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Jimmy doesn't need a phone.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
He could just scream right from the right, from out
the window and we'd hear him.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
Here.
Speaker 5 (15:02):
He is, my DearS, Jimmy from Hoven Brother.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Why are you're giving him such a hot time? It's kid, brother,
It's one of the best groups ever.
Speaker 5 (15:13):
I thought you were on Christy.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
You should be loving on them.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
Could not be giving him a hard time. I was
with Big Job today. Brothers.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Why didn't you invite Jimmy.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
You could have Big John?
Speaker 5 (15:25):
I mean, can you imagine Big John?
Speaker 1 (15:27):
I want them Montadella slice it. What do you mean
you don't have Montadella, and.
Speaker 5 (15:30):
Then you'd have Jimmy. I'll have the apter chowder.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
What do you mean da to be thrown right out
of the restaurant, Jimmy, I was not I wasn't making fun.
I just they they are. They're taking this like like
I'm worried. I'm not gonna take one of my parents' death.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
It's hard.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
It was all night with the.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
Wait wait till Wait till Diamond passes. I know how
you're gonna react. I'm gonna remind you of this. You're
gonna see me right behind Red getting into the bourbon.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
Uh be.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Speaking of Big John, the caravan and I picture. I
don't know why an Ole's ninety eight has made its
way from New York to Music City and he is
checking in on this Sleewa performance. So Big John and
his boys listened to the debate on the way down.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
It didn't go like we expected, but were still hanging
in there. The only good day is we had the
over the NFL game last night. Oh the hockey boys. Oh,
I am so jealous.
Speaker 5 (16:29):
Why can't we do something tomorrow?
Speaker 1 (16:31):
How long is he in town?
Speaker 5 (16:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
When they're one of the Titans game, I think.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Oh, why, all right, that's Big that's Big.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
John and Jim Moran coming down in the Lincoln Mark for.
Speaker 5 (16:44):
My picture at olds ninety eight.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Cas Guttler, go ahead, Philadelphia, No, just tip it off.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
With two bucks.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
This is Sean Paul from Avita, Florida, and my morning
show is your morning show with Nostros still j Orno.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Hey, it's Michael reminding you that your morning show can
be heard live each weekday morning five to eighth Central,
six to nine Eastern in great cities like Nashville, Tennessee,
tu 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 ever. We're
grateful you're here. Now, enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Do have to like the emoji put my hand on
my chin in wonder for a moment. Boys, do we
really think it's a good idea to have cameras in
the studio?
Speaker 1 (17:36):
I'm not so sure.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Thirty five minutes after the hour, rise and shine, early
bird gets the warm, sleepy squirrel, missus the nut. Welcome
to Friday, October seventeenth Year of Our Lord, twenty twenty five.
If you're just waking up, we had the big debate
in New York City for Mayor. It was feisty. They
were swinging. Got some highlights for you coming up. The
former National Security Advisor John Bolton. Well, he said, as
(18:00):
he's just the latest victim, and you know the Trump
weaponization of the Justice Department. Meanwhile, the Justice Department is
looking at eighteen counts related to the handling. I've classified documents.
Oh that old chestnut again. And Kiss rocker Ace Freightley
is dead at the age of seventy four. We do
have a futurist, Kevin surreally with us. We could ask Kevin,
what are the odds Ace gets buried in one of
(18:21):
those expensive Kiss caskets?
Speaker 1 (18:23):
All right?
Speaker 5 (18:24):
Now?
Speaker 6 (18:24):
See you know I I'm all for that actually, And
what's interesting about this? This is such a great question,
by the way, big fan of Kiss. Devastating laws for
the rock and roll community. You know to everyone listening
to that, you listen to that that's a huge loss
of the community.
Speaker 5 (18:41):
But what all igacy?
Speaker 6 (18:42):
What a legacy? Yeah, of course, but for the for
the freezing your body after you die. I think this
is interesting and that people need to really consider the
implications of this because you don't have any say when
you get the thagged and there's no real regulation is
about in America? At least I've looked into this, which
(19:03):
you didn't think I was going to say.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Where you have you.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Have looked into everything that's futuristic?
Speaker 6 (19:09):
Can I give you my love it?
Speaker 5 (19:11):
No? I know, but here would have been my thought.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Everybody assumes, okay, freeze me and someday they can thaw
me out when they know how to fix whatever killed me. Well,
how do everybody assumes the best? How do you know
who's gonna unthaw you? For all we know, giant cockroaches
will roll the earth when they unthaw you up and
your lunch.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
I mean, but but go ahead, No.
Speaker 6 (19:33):
That's that's that's my point precisely.
Speaker 5 (19:35):
Or you have.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
Relatives in the future that you don't really want to
talk to you and you're like, wait a minute, you know,
but there should be I mean as the science becomes
more and more able to do these types of things.
Because people freeze their pets right now, people clone their
pets right now in Texas, and people like carry Silton
cloned her dog. I mean that that's like a fact,
(19:56):
it was, It's literally happened. There's a whole industry in
Europe because they have looser regulations than us. Go figure
as it relates to to cloning for animals and pets
and so these questions are what I like to get
into on Hello Future, beyond just the space stuff that
we talked about.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
Wait a minute, Wait a minute, that was your first
shameless plug ever on your morning show.
Speaker 6 (20:15):
Thank you from you, my friend.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
That's really is joining us now. On the cloning, you know,
first of all, you can't. You can genetic I have
twin daughters who are genetically identical.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
They're identical twins.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
Wow, but they're nothing alike, all right, So you know
I used to think, well, you think that's kind of sick.
I would have cloned my bulldog Joey. That's how much
I loved him. Why, But it wouldn't have been It
didn't because it wouldn't have been him.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
It would have just looked like.
Speaker 6 (20:44):
Him exactly exactly. But can I ask you a question
just to follow up on that? Which is which? Because
I'm fascinated by this. A lot of people don't feel
they like they have a different position on cloning humans
versus cloning their pets. They don't really care if people
clone their pets, but they obviously I don't think I
don't believe in human cloning. I'm sure you don't either, but.
Speaker 5 (21:03):
Or maybe you do.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
I don't know.
Speaker 7 (21:04):
I do.
Speaker 6 (21:06):
But why do you feel different about cloning animals versus
cloning humans?
Speaker 3 (21:11):
Well, now, if you're going to have like a real
serious conversation if if no, because things things creep. So
if if that became common cloning pets, eventually somebody go, well,
why can't I clone my son who died in a
car accident? You would just but I agree with you, So.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Listen, Kevin, my father got around.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
I actually believe that that Red my producer, is really
my brother. My dad must have been doing something on
the East Coast.
Speaker 5 (21:38):
Where were you?
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Where did you grow up?
Speaker 6 (21:40):
I grow up outside of Philly and Delco, which is
like the swing counties outside of Philly.
Speaker 4 (21:45):
Big.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
Yeah, probably it was probably having like uh, you know,
a Philly steak sandwich and Metro.
Speaker 6 (21:51):
Motake, not a steak sandwich. My aunt actually set up
my parents.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
We are we are so much, We are so much
and like we see that one. But no, I love
my dog. I think everybody has one dog in life
that you know, we talk about soulmates, that there's always
one pet.
Speaker 6 (22:09):
Uh, God's creatures.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Yeah, but it's just it's a precious one of many.
I think some of it is the way they hurt,
we hurt when they're gone, and then we don't open
our heart up for any of the future dogs. But
it seems like everybody has one pet that really gets
to them, and that was Joey, and I would have
been tempted to clone him. But yeah, it's kind of
the same reason like when we think of, oh do
we live in past lives, which I don't believe in either,
(22:32):
But we're always something great.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Nobody was ever just a plumber.
Speaker 5 (22:35):
You know.
Speaker 6 (22:37):
But so the thing with it that I really think
is a big idea.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
I love my dog's d O, who's.
Speaker 6 (22:42):
Named after Theodore Roosevelt, great president, and and but the
thing about cloning the dogs that I agree with you on.
I don't believe that we should be able to clone pets.
And this is a very big topic of conversation in
the pet world, to be honest, it's a huge industry.
Because I agree with you that it would creep into
(23:02):
being able to clone other things. They're actually thinking about
bringing back to life willy mammoths. I'm sure maybe some
of your listeners have heard about that and how they
are I mean, because they want to genetically engineered, regenetically
engineer these willy mammoth animals that roam the earth, you know,
thousands of years ago, to help with I don't know
what the environmental argument is. It to help with some
(23:23):
of the ecosystems and parts of the world where they
would roam. So Jurassic Park, when I write about this
in the newsletter a lot, Jurassic Park were not like
that far off from being able to do that. But
there are so many ethical questions that come with it,
and I think they're really important conversations to be had
just beyond like.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
About where the line is, and.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
We don't know.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
To be honest, Kevin's really is our futurist.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
He's joining us.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Well, I was just going to say, I think my
ox a lodel, who is four rooms away from me
right now, I think that was genetically brought back. They
were richly in the Mexico City area when it was
nothing but a giant swamp, and then they went extinct,
and I think they've been brought back. So when you
in an ox lodel is hilarious, it's like an underwater lizard.
(24:11):
But you know, these beautiful so I mean, we've done
it with some I don't know that I'd want to
do with the wooly mammoth, and I certainly don't want
to do it with a dinosaur. All right, real quickly,
let's talk about this California.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
New Digital ID law.
Speaker 3 (24:23):
Its backed by big tech, but it's opposed by Hollywood,
and it could become.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
Talk about it crazy.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
It could become a national template for regulating AI.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
So this is really fascinating because it's two giant industries
that people have across the ideological spectrum have very different
views on. But the coalition between Hollywood versus big Tech
is a fascinating policy fight. I think when you look
at polling, virtually all Americans, Republicans and Democrats agree that
(24:55):
there needs to be some type of restrictions for children
on social media because of all of the mental health
impacts that we've seen. And what they're doing in California
is very similar to what happens with what they've done
for alcohol as well as smoking and marijuana usage websites
and advertising and marketing for kids, which is they're saying
(25:17):
you have to when a parent sets up their device,
they have to put in the age of their children
so that they are that there are certain age requirements
for certain social media platforms. So whether or not this
is the right solution, it is the one of the
first solutions that has been put forward as it relates
(25:37):
to navigating the mental health impacts that kids have because
of social media. And I think it's going to be
a conversation that will be very dominant in the midterms
and the presidential cycle. I mean, what do you think
you hear from your listeners all the time? Do you
think that parents really want to see more restrictions on
children's use of their devices and social media?
Speaker 1 (26:00):
I hope.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
So there was a documentary, gosh, I bet it's six
years old now about the social dilemma, and these were
the very makers of the algorithms. This was the Google people,
the Facebook people, and of course they all had one
thing in common. None of them allowed their kids on
any of the things that they created, which should tell
you something.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
But yeah, it's designed.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
To get you to tune in, tune in often, and
keep tuning in. It's the algorithms are created perfectly to
create addiction. And that amount of screen time is not
good for your brain and its development and your sleep
and your development. It leads to the perfection culture and
this psychological impact.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
The next thing, you know, and.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
This hit my home, you start having eating disorders, isolation,
which leads to loneliness and suicide.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
So it is a very dangerous game.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
I thought you were going somewhere different with AI and
that I don't think they see. I don't think many
have woken up to how that phone is destroying their kids' lives.
I know they haven't woke up to how AI is
going to confuse and destroy their lives because you're going
to think it's your kid on your iPhone talking to
you in a video call telling you Mom, I'm at
(27:16):
the police station, or if I don't get one hundred dollars,
or I've been kidnapped, if I don't get a hundred
thousand dollars, You're going to think it's them, and it's
not so.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
But the Hollywood wanted.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
The Hollywood's fascinating because the AI product. I mean this,
this fake woman has a name, she has you know, merch,
she's and is probably a better actress than anybody that
can live and do it. This is a real problem
for Hollywood, could be a real problem for talk radio,
could be a problem for podcasts.
Speaker 6 (27:44):
So you know, yes, I assure you. But what a
bot can't do is go and speak and connect to
the audience. And I do think that, So I think
that's the leverage that humans still have. But to your
point precisely, I'm a big fan of Mission Impossible movies.
And when I'm saying that, because in Washington, d C.
(28:05):
There's the Motion Picture Association, which is another non part
is an entity, you know, and they do the term
ratings for all of the things. And I was talking
to my friends there just about like what they have
the biggest difference between today and two decades ago. And
they're like, we're a tech company. We have to protect
intellectual property at all costs because of artificial intelligence and
(28:26):
everything that's happening. And to that point, if you think
of bad actors like the Chinese Communist Party in China,
for example, they actually during their students college exams weeks,
they have a kill switch and they shut off all
artificial intelligence so that their students can't use artificial intelligence
during their exam. So I mean imagine the teacher coming
(28:48):
in and saying, hand in your calculators for your math exam.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
I would have failed miserably.
Speaker 6 (28:53):
But I don't know if that's the right approach. I
think that feels for coding in that there's a kill
switch that the government can use. But these types of questions.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
About what's real, what's stake.
Speaker 6 (29:02):
And tech literacy for young people as well as adults,
by the way, these are the defining questions of our era.
I believe that, and everybody's gonna have.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
About and everybody, Kevin's gonna have personal choice. Right.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
So I have identical twin daughters. One was never interested
in any of this. She is going to be a doctor.
She's already, you know, serving at a pediatrician's office and
about to get her undergrad and then head to medical school.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
The other one was real into it.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
They don't They didn't develop the same so there's no
question that it's it's unhealthy. What I don't like is
the same previous generation that invited all this technology into
a phone into the hands of our kids at a young.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Age and are now going what the heck happened to
my kids?
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Is the same generation now that is inviting in all
this AI and they don't know all that they're inviting
in with it. I don't invite a bunch of strangers
into my home and then figure out what the negatives are.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Utimately know everybody I invite in my home.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
And I think that's where I mean, this is my
shameless plug for you, and that is I would want
my audience to know the future is already here. The
time to understand it was yesterday. This is not crazy
we're gonna be on Mars walking around even though that's coming.
This is stuff that's already here. That's why I love
(30:23):
the name Hello Future. I love the host, Kevin Sirelli.
The podcast is on iHeart because all this stuff is
all ready here. And in fact, the big fights that
are going to determine the future are happening now and
they need your ears and they need your voice or
it's going to be too late one way or another.
They're gonna get it right or wrong, and you're gonna
live with it. How's that for a shameless plug.
Speaker 6 (30:45):
I appreciate that, And I think what's what I hope
people realize is like we we have to demand new ideas.
We have to demand new ideas because the policymakers, you know,
regardless regardless of who they are, I think they need
to on whatever side of the aisle, and there are
a couple who do a great job. But we need
to be demanding new ideas for the future because they're
(31:06):
thinking of fights from you know, the past, and we
need to be set up for our country's long term
success so that when we turn five hundred years old,
we are still ahead of China.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
By the way, Kevin, I appreciate your enthusiasm and intelligence
today because I know you're very upset that Paul Scrimmish
has passed away. A lot of you don't know who
Paul is. He'll be born in one hundred years from now.
He's a great, great singer. And Kevin, already, being a futurist,
has experienced his music and his mourning his death as
(31:38):
the rest of us are focused on. He's freely this
morning the Futurist, kevin'sireally the show. Hello Future, It's on
your iHeart app. It's always fun to visit. I love you, my.
Speaker 6 (31:47):
Brother, Thank you, thank you, Boss. Appreciate you very very much,
thank you, thank you.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
You got it.
Speaker 4 (31:53):
It's your morning show with Michael del Chano.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Could you imagine waking up a couple one hundred years
from now in the first pace you see is the
fount you Oh.
Speaker 5 (32:06):
Hell, no Bob.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
Bobs a sippy Bob getting cremated.

Early the early debate fireworks came on the subject of experience.
Here's the thirty three year old mom, Donnie.
Speaker 9 (33:40):
And the definition of experience is not doing the same
thing again and again and hoping for a different result.
That's actually the definition of insane. Cuomo fired back.

the government's shutdown, But White House correspondent John Decker says
President Trump is content for now to have a hands
off approach.

find some sort of compromise to fund the government, to
reopen the government, and that hasn't happened yet.

The shutdown will continue even after the Senate once again
denied a GOP spending measure on Thursday. House Speaker Mike
Johnson Warren, this shutdown may become the longest in history.

red states. So the idea here is to put some
pressure on Republicans to at least make this compromise before
reopening the federal government.
