glad you're here now. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Because we're in the stage.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
This is your morning show with Michael gil Charny.
Speaker 4 (00:34):
Don't you dah If that's news, I was not going
to make it feel any more rested, Get a baby
cup of coffee, join us here at the kitchen table,
and welcome to Wednesday, December the seventeenth, o Lord twenty
twenty five.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
I don't know, we're all still talking about Big John.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
Maybe next year, who knows how big we'll be then,
But maybe we should throw a Christmas party for you. Sorry,
we're losing weight now. I don't mean big as in me,
I mean how many markets? But what if we did?
Speaker 1 (01:05):
You know?
Speaker 4 (01:05):
I mean we couldn't pay for people's airfareer at a hotel,
Lion or something. But I mean we could get a
ballroom or something you want to do, like a drunken buss.
That's I can't be trapped on a bus away that.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
I said, what if we all got on a bus
and went caroling and you brought it to the drunken part.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Well, I mean, because you know, you get you get Jimmy.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Swit's in there.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
You get Pig John next to you know where a
metropolis had a couple of times.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
But maybe by.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
This time next year we will throw a Christmas party
and I'll get together.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
We got the oppera Land hotel. I got people that
work there. We're in. We'll work on it. President Trump's
gonna address the nation. But about what.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
Director Rob Reiner's son is being charged with two counts
of murder, and the timeline is starting to come together.
He checked into a Santa Monica hotel about four a m.
There was blood all in the shower, blood all in
the bed. I think this fight at Conan O'Brien's house
went back to Robin Michelle Reiner's house.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
The crime occurred on Saturday.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
Body was discovered on Sunday, but Rory's following this, and
we'll also get to Brown University as well, Rory. This
timeline is starting to come together a little bit. I
think this drunk of this whatever it was, drugged rage.
I'm presuming now the death was Saturday night. That's what
it appears to be.
Speaker 6 (02:20):
As you said, the holiday party at Conan O'Brien's house.
Many people said that Nick Reiner, he was there, sort
of disheveled, not really taking part in the festivities. Then
there's this blow up with his dad that happens there,
and then they all leave, and then the bodies are
found what three point in the afternoon Pacific time the
(02:40):
following day, by the daughter of the Reiners, the sibling
to Nick, And of course the police investigation has been
underway since then. There's now a high profile defense attorney
representing Nick Reiner, who did not make an appearance in
court yesterday. They hadn't gotten him cleared for health screenings,
so that could be happening today. But we also heard
(03:02):
the DA say that the death penalty is not off
the table in this case, which may just be a
tactic because they perhaps try to negotiate something that avoids
a trial.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
You know, This is a sad I had this conversation
at dinner with my son. It just seems like, and
some of it's anecdotal and some of it is real,
that you can get a much less sentence killing some
a family member or someone you know than if it
were a complete stranger. The burden of proof is different
(03:32):
on the death penalty, although they seem to have a
lot and then you know, you got the drugs involved.
I don't know that that would be a wise way
to go to life sentences. Probably good enough, but this
is problematic for Nick. I presume that the blood all
over that hotel room that he checked into with his
(03:52):
credit card hours after the time of death is going
to be the blood of Rob and Michelle Reiner. So
I think they've got a pretty pretty, you know, open
shot case. I just don't know that I would go
the death sentence with it, although we have a trend
with our listeners about wanting immediate death sentences for deterrence,
But I don't know in this case if it's worth
(04:13):
the extra burden to proof.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
Yeah, you know, some of those drugs to it well, right,
and in some of those cases, you know, the where
the evidence is overwhelming I can understand it. Others it's
a little bit more challenging. I think Florida has had
more overturned death sentences than any but any other state
in the country. But it's yeah, you know again, this
is all going to go to some sort of negotiation
(04:36):
that's going to look at what seventeen years of drug
addiction by Nick Reiner. I think his first rehab stint
was when it was fifteen years old. Went to rehab
seventeen times. Certainly a sympathetic, sympathetic figure when it comes
to his addictions. And we'll see if this ever gets
before jury.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
All right, Well, to Brown University we go. At least
the main stream media is at least starting.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
To express some frustration.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
You have a major, you know, Ivy League university with
no cameras and this guy's roaming around campus.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
And while we.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
Wouldn't have imagined there were no cameras, maybe the shooter
knew there were no cameras. Either way, it's frustrating the
police are having to do double triple duty. We did
get a third piece of footage, all with COVID mask
I mean, do we have one yet unmasked? I don't
think so.
Speaker 6 (05:25):
No, not yet, and the Attorney General has said that
the video from inside is pretty useless. By the way,
we also found out the Louver had no security cameras too, right,
I remember.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
That the family jewels. We were compromised, right, all right?
Speaker 6 (05:39):
So yeah, not a whole lot of specific video that
might get us a name here. But boy, we got
a better idea of his shape. That two tone colored jacket,
the sling bag, the hat, the mask. You know, if
you wore that mask frequently. It's Rhode Island. It's pretty small.
If you don't know him, your cousin does. And you know,
we might get some if he's a local. That's another
factor too.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
All right.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
We have no idea what the president is going to
dress America. And it could be as simple as what
a great year we had and we are the gold
standard of the world. We have the hottest country on
the planet. Could be about Venezuela, could be about isis.
We just simply don't know. Rory will speculate with us.
In the third hour, he'll be back. Can't have your
(06:21):
morning show without your voice, ladies and gentlemen, Let's start
in Arizona.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Morning fellas.
Speaker 7 (06:29):
My guess for who Snoop Dogg's special guest is at halftime,
I'd say Kid Rock and I would approve of that.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
I got this earlier from Roy in Youngstown. If Martha
Stewart isn't one of Snoop's special guests for the halftime show,
I'm going to be immensely disappointed.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
What's Martha going to do?
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Come out and whip up a cast role? You know, yeah,
whip up a casserole. All right, we'll go with that one.
To Roger in California.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Well you, Michael Jeffery read.
Speaker 8 (07:06):
Hey, I've been waiting to share this, but our family
does what we call gift miss. And what we've done
is to take the gift giving part out of Christmas.
We celebrate everything else, and we find that it makes
things less stressful, helps us concentrate on the true meaning
and a Christmas.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
And what gift miss is is we save.
Speaker 8 (07:23):
Our gift giving for the week later, and we do
it on New Year's Day, and we found that it's
worked very good for us. Merry Christmas to all you
and all the listeners.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Yeah, I mean, you know, I could make a quick
joke or we could talk about it seriously. Christ represents
the ultimate gift and a gift we could have never
earned or afforded, and so somewhere along line the tradition became.
That's why I think Christmas is so special for kids,
and then really after kids, I think got to wait
till grandkids, because once you're an adult, if you want something,
(07:55):
you can go get it. It doesn't even have the representation.
And I've told the story of the one time we
were down and out, Mom, me Andrew all together and
we were down in New Orleans moving her out of
a house into a small condo and fixing up the
condo and nobody had any money. It really was the
greatest christ centered and love and family centered Christmas. But
(08:15):
you know, I've got numerous Christmas memories as a child
and with my children, giving them gifts and other traditions
that keep it about. You know, my kids would tell
you that the making of the cookies, the feast, you know,
on Christmas Eve of the fishes, and then going to
church candlelight service on Saturday. I don't I don't even
(08:39):
know if gifts would be their top memory. So there's
a there's a way to do both safely. But whatever
you do, have a merry Christmas and make sure you
know you just don't lose the Christ in all of
the celebration.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
James is in oh hi, oh hey, guys, I found
this interesting. You probably already knew it, though, but glean.
Speaker 9 (09:01):
Glenn Beck did a piece the other day where he
talked about the guy who sang the song the Grinch.
It's the same guy who was the voice for Tony
the Tiger.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
I knew that, Yes, thunder his voice there. Great.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
I should be the new Tony the Tiger. You keep
working on it. You're getting there. Tims in North Carolina,
you speak.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Of Mohama to three Mohammads.
Speaker 8 (09:26):
I'd like I'd like to know is there a book
on that that I could get to read about it?
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Very good show, Thank you very much. You're welcome.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Well, obviously, there's just remember with Islam, there is the
Koran and then there is the Hideith. I wouldn't call
the Koran the Bible, because the Bible claims to be
a living word of God, and I have lived a
life that believes it. So so, but they have the
Koran and they have the Hideeth, which is the life
(09:59):
of Ohaman. Now, obviously, and I'm not being a smart Alec.
Those two would be a good place to start. There
are many experts out there. There are some I respect
more than others. If I had to pick one, and
if you email me Michael di at iHeartMedia dot com.
(10:21):
Otherwise you're gonna have to remember this. But you can
google Bill Warner. Bill did a couple of his first
book in twenty ten, and you're gonna love him. It's
kind of not like Cliff's Notes, but closer to Cliff's notes.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Than big intimidating.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
He's going to take all these things like the Quran
and the head and boil them down for you in
bullet point fashion. So I think for beginning this would
be a great place to start. And his first one
was Sharia Law for Non Muslims, which I always loved
the title because that's what people don't understand. Charia law
is not for Muslims. It's for non Muslims too, because
(10:56):
you don't have any choice. And so why if you
go to Iran today and you're a woman. I don't
think i'd wear a skirt suit if I were you,
and I wouldn't walk around town uncovered if I were you.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
That's Kasheria laws for non Muslims. That's a great one.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
He also did the Life of Mohammed, which really cuts
the chase of what you're talking about. But I will
say this simply, if whether you're reading the Koran or
you're reading the Hidith, you're going to see and walk
through the three contradicting lives in Mohammad. He started in Mecca,
one of three hundred and sixty five religions, completely tolerant,
(11:34):
a little intolerant, then he started robbing. Then he became
much more political, and then ultimately a warrior. So Bill
Warner and I could send you the link to all
of his little books, but i'd start with Life Mohammed
and shri Law for non Muslims. Lisa Is I could
open the door and yell to her, couldn't I. Lisa's
(11:54):
right here in Tennessee.
Speaker 10 (11:56):
I have to tell you that I agree with you.
I love I'm not president. I love everything that he's
been doing. But I got that IgG feeling when he
sent that that tweet. So I'm with you on that,
just not a good feeling.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Nobody worried that we're going there again.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
I would just say that I was mentioning yesterday that
I'm a little politically dumbfounded.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Where was Susie Wiles?
Speaker 4 (12:20):
I think I said in my frustration, And now today
we wake up, we find out Susie Wiles is busy
doing interviews with Vanity Fair and then being betrayed, and
now everybody's having to defend her right head the line
of the day. What are they doing sitting down with
Vanity Fair? What were the folks at the Atlantic too busy?
And then what do you expect? Let's give Joey a
(12:41):
different Joey, Joey and Pa the final say.
Speaker 11 (12:44):
Good morning, MIKEI I gotta go along with Joey. Public punishment,
go back to biblical times.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
I for an eye and ear for an ear.
Speaker 11 (12:52):
Is why the Singapore government has such a low crime rate,
because they have public punishment and have to go along
with Big John. We should have our own Christmas party,
all right.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
We're gonna kick that around for next year. Wouldn't that
be fun? If all of you were.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Willing to fly in, Oh my god, get a nice
little we could all stay at the Gay Lord. Yeah,
and we will all bring in the Christmas season together
with great cheer.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
I would love that. There's nobody I'd rather spend time
within you my listeners, all right.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Doctors call it weight cycling, others have called it yo yoing,
whichever you call it. Half of Americans do it. So
when you lose ten pounds, gain it back, lose it again,
lose it, get it back, and then some It's really
tough on your body and it's not so good for
your mind because it's so frustrating. And the bottom line is,
we need help losing weight. And here's a great weight
non prescription, Lean created by doctors. It's an oral supplement,
(13:47):
not an injectable, and it's science is impressive. The studied
ingredients target weight loss in three powerful ways. Lean is
going to help you maintain healthy blood sugar levels for
some more than others. That's priority number one too. It's
going to help control appetite and cravings. And finally, it's
going to help convert fat to energy. And when you
(14:07):
burn fat, guess what, you lose weight and keep it off.
I promise you, and I think Jeffrey would tell you this.
You're gonna l the way you feel. I do like
the energy, but you are going to like the way
you look in no time. So if you want to
lose meaningful weight and keep it off and stay healthy.

This is your morning show with Michael del Chrono.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
If you're just waking up, these are your top stories.
President Trump is going to address the nation tonight, but
about what.
Speaker 12 (14:52):
In a truth social posts, the President said he will
speak from the White House at nine pm Eastern. He
did not provide any details about what he will be
speaking about. Trump ended his post by saying, it has
been a great year for our country and the best
is yet to come.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
A Markenefield director Rob Reiner's son is being charged with
two counts the first degree murder and the stabbing death
of his parents.
Speaker 13 (15:11):
Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hafkman made the announcement
on Tuesday.
Speaker 14 (15:15):
These charges will be two counts of first degree murder
with a special circumstance of multiple murders. He also faces
a special allegation that he personally used a dangerous and
deadly weapon, that being a knife.
Speaker 13 (15:30):
If convicted, Nick Reiner could face life in prison. The
bodies of seventy eight year old Rob Reiner and his wife,
seventy year old Michelle Singer Reiner, were discovered in their
Los Angeles home on Sunday afternoon. I'm Tammy Trujillo.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
Well, we are shopping this holiday season, but we're spending less.
Sarah le Kessler reports.
Speaker 15 (15:50):
It's a season to be jolly, but apparently it's also
time to be thrifty. And NBC News Decision Desk poll
found that fifty five percent of US are spending some
holiday gifts this year, thirty six percent say they're spending
about the same, and just nine percent are shelling out
more for holiday gifts. The poll didn't find a lot
of correlation with our financial situations. Forty one percent of
(16:13):
Americans say it's about the same as last year, twenty
four percent called it better, and only thirty five percent
sent it's worse.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
I'm Sarah Lee Kessler.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
The most popular holiday dish in each of the fifty
states has been revealed.
Speaker 12 (16:27):
The website Delicia dot Com used Google trends and other
search data to determine the most popular holiday food in
each state. Kramlings one of the most popular in Alaska,
Prime rib took the top spot in Idaho, and gumbo
was the favorite in Louisiana. In Pennsylvania, Pizzelli's are the
most popular food item this year. Bizzelli's originated in Italy
and are described as a waffle like cookie which can
(16:48):
either be crispy and crunchy or soft and chewy.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
I'm mart nephew.
Speaker 11 (16:54):

the podcast Enjoy. Tomorrow will begin our two day top
(17:31):
ten Christmas Stories and Songs Your Morning Show Holiday Spectacular,
so we'll have a lot more focus on Tomorrow and Friday.
Speaker 4 (17:39):
On the Birth of a Savior talkbacks. They were down
yesterday and it was not the same without you. I
had a little thing happened here at my house with
my production computer. I guess I've just never been on
my computer when it literally keels over and dies. Oh really,
And we spent two hours trying to revive it, and
(18:01):
finally my engineer called it's death.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
They ordered me a new one. We got it, and
then I by.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
The time I got it last night, I was supposed
to wait, but I installed it and I still don't.
I cannot tell you how I did all this. I
had to install the scarlet, the two drivers. Then I
had to install the Adobe audition system, and I mean
I did it. You're quite the tinkerer, so you can
normally see it. It took me a long longer time than
somebody knew what they were doing. But timeow I got
(18:27):
I man, I'll be able to get off the air.
Cut your promos email them to you. I mean, I
think I'm growing up. They're a big boy now I am.
But it's nice to have the talkbacks back. That was
not as easy of a fix. I'm just wandered. Some
kind of crazy hacking going on right now. But we
have you back, and I want to go to Bruce.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
I want to a minute.
Speaker 5 (18:53):
That is the wrong one. Sorry, you went to the
wrong one. I wasn't prepared for. Sorry, here's Bruce.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
This is Bruce going from Tampa Bay. My morning show
is your morning show.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
Oh yeah, now I know why you didn't want to
go there, all right, So we're going to uh Port Charlotte, Florida.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
This will be Carla.
Speaker 16 (19:13):
With the attacks in Syria, Australia, the foiled plots in
the United States, the closed Christmas celebration in Paris during
our high holy days for Christians and for Jews, I
think we will be seeing one of these tacks over
the next several weeks. This is the real face of terror.
Speaker 4 (19:34):
Well, we talked about this yesterday at great length, and
I addressed in our Platinum Hour earlier. You know, obviously, Russia, China, Iran,
North Korea, these are predictable fronts of war in our hemisphere.
Venezuela is a problem, but there's nothing more important than
the war on terror, and ISIS shows us that even
(19:54):
though the President identified them as evil, targeted them and
destroyed them in the first term, they have clearly grown.
Usually they grow another head and become something else. But
ISIS itself appears to be back.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Now.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
I will say this, that's definitely an ISIS tie with
the ISIS flags and bombs in the vehicles in Sydney.
It was definitely ISIS ties with the attacking of two
of our soldiers and an interpreter in Syria. We cannot
make the assumption that that was ISIS. That was up
(20:27):
to no good in southern California because that was a
different liberation front that's anti capitalist. And there have been
reports that the Brown University shooter shouted a la akbar,
but there's no confirmation of that. We know he shouted something.
Some students are saying he shouted at a la akbar.
He certainly does not look Muslim to me, although he
(20:47):
could be an American convert or an American radicalization.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
So time will tell. But you can't turn a blind
eye to this.
Speaker 4 (20:54):
And I will say this, I wouldn't want to get
into a long conversation, not with a White House correspondent
of John Prestige standing by. But I have the same
feeling that it's going to be a rocky road next year,
and I think terrorism might be one of the tentacles
we're dealing with most All right, last chance, Well, let
me tell you something. Every day, John Decker, is a
(21:16):
last chance for Congress.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
To actually do something.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
But this one the last chance to do something on
healthcare and get a vote before recess.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
Give us the very latest.
Speaker 17 (21:26):
Well, the latest is that the Senate Majority Leader John
Souons said this won't happen this year.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
He made that clear.
Speaker 17 (21:34):
So regardless of what happens with that House vote today,
and there will be a House vote today, it will
not contain an amendment that would extend those expiring Obamacare subsidies,
there is nothing that will prevent a rise in premiums
next year for twenty four million Americans who get their
healthcare insurance through the Affordable Care Act.
Speaker 4 (21:57):
I might add too, there's a lot of people that
don't businesses that aren't going to be happy because their
expense for providing for their employees is also going up.
That's being lost in this. And then all this goes
down through the matrix. Right, So the left will tell you,
look what Donald Trump did, He just raised everybody's premiums.
The right will say, no, this is Obamacare. It never
(22:19):
insured everyone. It never lowered premiums, It never improved healthcare,
and we've been subsidizing it. And the subsidies had an
expiration date. They rightly expired. We're not in a COVID crisis.
But at the end of the day, it's still going
to be happy. New Year insurance is forty percent more.
I mean, it's so frustrating. Politics over governing. Oh, it
(22:45):
is frustrating. There's no doubt about that.
Speaker 17 (22:47):
And as you point out, these were subsidies that related
to the pandemic. These were extended subsidies because there already
were subsidies to begin with. These were enhanced subsidies only
in play because of the pandemic. And look at your calendar.
Everybody knows in America the subsidy the pandemic is over
(23:07):
and as a result, those extended subsidies are going away.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Well, the Brown University shooter didn't know that because he's
still walking around as a mask. But I couldn't resist
that one, all right.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
But my point is, if these would put their parties aside,
be Americans, be representatives, be statesman's governed, stopped just constantly campaigning,
they should address the healthcare crisis. And you wouldn't be
in these situations, but for a lot of individuals and
for a lot of companies, there's no stopping the rate increase.
(23:41):
There will be no deal. According to the Senate leadership
this year, John is we did it in a joke
because I didn't know how to do it. Seriously, is
the white I mean yesterday I was saying I really
didn't appreciate the president's true social post on Rob Reiner,
now that I was a fan of Rob Reiner, I
just don't believe that's the way you talk about other
(24:01):
sacred human beings. And I say sacred because God is
sacred and created us in his image, and two wrongs
don't make him might And that's going lower all that
immature nonsense, right, But I made the comment. What's politically
dumbfounding is where were the hell was Susie Wiles to protect.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Them from doing something like that?
Speaker 4 (24:19):
While we find out she's busy with Vanity Fair and
then wondering how she got betrayed. I presume the Atlantic
folks were just too busy. But what do you expect
sitting down with these people? But how big of a
deal is that today? These people look? These people?
Speaker 17 (24:32):
You act as if you know there was a gun
to the head of Susie Wiles. Susie Wiles did eleven interviews,
eleven hour long interviews over the course of eleven months.
And although they say, oh, taken out of context, you
need to have context. No one is saying from the
White House's perspective, no one is saying that this individual
(24:56):
made up quotes that well those person wrote were lies,
because it is truthful tape recorded.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Ever, that's an old school term.
Speaker 17 (25:04):
He used an audio device to record all of the conversations,
and as a result, they can say that because he's
got all those receipts that he can play, and he
is playing. So look, this was a huge mistake. I
don't know why you do this other than vanity, because
and it's vanity fair.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Other than vanity.
Speaker 17 (25:25):
All right, Michael, they're taking pictures, you know these these
you know.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
These pictures in.
Speaker 17 (25:32):
The Oval office, in the Roosevelt Room, in the cabinet room.
They're posing for pictures. They knew what they were doing.
And as they say, the chickens have come home to roost.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
I can comment a loner with you. I just don't
know how much time you have if you need to go.
I'll do your out queue and then i'll do it.
I'm just going to talk about interviews and the only
way to protect yourself and be safe. Obviously, you're painting
the powerful picture. Everything was relaxed, everything was trusting. They
think they're the greatest thing on earth, and they presume
everybody that comes and witnesses what they're doing and where
(26:07):
they're doing it is going to think it's the greatest
thing on earth. And you can give them quotes that
can be used in portion, not in hole, which is
where the context comes in. It's not a misquote, it's
a reckless quote that never should have been made and
allowed to be taken in any portion other than completely.
And then you got to, you know, be a little
bit picky about who you choose to allow in or not.
(26:28):
But yeah, this is, this is I don't know, we're
having some really unforced errors before the end of the
year and I have I haven't even done year in
review with you yet. That's good. That'll be a big
topic today, along with trying to get a healthcare build
that isn't coming.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
John.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
I'll have more during his podcast The White House Briefing
Room that's up by nine am Eastern, eighth Central.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
If you want to know more.
Speaker 4 (26:51):
Directly from you got it, God bless you, my friend.
If you want to know more from the White House,
that's coming up. But no, I mean, I've been interviewed
before and it's hard to do. I'm older now and
I don't fall for it. So no matter what they
ask me, what comes out of my mouth is a
complete beginning, middle, and end sentence and thought. And there's
(27:15):
no loosening up, and there's no and they'll keep reasking
and they'll keep probing, and you have to keep saying
the same thing back. Now, a savvy reporter is going
to realize, Okay, this guy's not going to loosen up.
I'm not going to catch him in anything. I'm not
going to have anything I can twist. And at that
point they'll just pick your three worst quotes or three
(27:36):
least meaningful things you said, and then tailor all there
writing around it. If Andity Fair made Susie Wilds look bad,
it's because she trusted him too much, watched him around
the White House, talked loosely and longley, and the guy
waited a long time and pieced together something that made
her and the President look bad. It doesn't make Susie
(27:57):
Wild bad. It makes her needing to be more careful
in the future about who you trust. But your joke,
you know, we have this emoji and then the old lol.
I really did laugh out loud when you said that
with the freaker, these people think in vanity fair? Would
they expect? What was the Atlantic busy? I just if
I'd have had a simp of coffee to have been the
old fashioned spit take.
Speaker 8 (28:17):
But go ahead, no, no, imagine this, Michael. I mean,
we're trying to not play shirts and skins, right, So
let's say they sit, they go, Okay, we've been on
Fox far too long. Let's throw these guys a bone.
And they do and they get burned, which of course
was going to happen. But can you jump on them
for trying to make an honest effort with a dishonest partner.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
Yeah, I mean, you've got to protect yourself more.
Speaker 8 (28:43):
And what makes eleven hours? Eleven hours?
Speaker 4 (28:45):
Eleven It's way way too long to spend with anybody
that is a perceived enemy. Look, if you do a
live interview on CNN and this type of thing happens,
you a Donald Trump's proven you can sue them, and
it's quite lucrative, but you can always play it in
its entirety. When you spend eleven hours with somebody with
their little digital recorder, he can stand by, They're never
(29:07):
going to release all eleven hours, and he can pick
up what do I talk to people all the time.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
I try to teach you about bias.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
Stories you cover, stories you don't angles, You choose angles,
you don't people you talk to people you don't quote,
You choose quote you don't, and then all the wording
around it that sets it up. That's why we live
in a world of narrative, not news. What's more tragic
is we live in a world of narrative repeaters.
Speaker 8 (29:37):
Not news reading what ultimately and what ultimately happens from
this is sty'll only go on Fox.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
And then that just builds the matrix.
Speaker 4 (29:45):
Look, history shows that markets can fall and currencies can collapse.
Today the dollar is shrinking, or trillions in debt thirty
seven record high. Markets define gravity and may they always,
but stocks can't quote forever. Meanwhile, our groceries, housing, transportation
costs are rising, and our dollar it's buying less every day.
(30:07):
So if and when a crash hits. One thing we know,
stocks won't save you. Dollars won't either. One thing will gold.
Gold has always survived, and that's why the central banks
are buying it up by the ton. Billionaires are stocking
up every day, Americans are protecting their savings in retirement
with physical gold. Only for the headlines or the panic
(30:28):
that's too late, call Dear Capital today eight hundred five
to one, one thirty seven hundred. Get your free gold
investment kit. Protect your wealth with real physical gold. With
over three billion dollars in trusted transactions and thousands and
thousands of five star reviews, lear is your trusted source,
and if you call now, you can also get up

(30:49):
Lyre Capital one eight hundred and five one one thirty
seven hundred called five one one thirty seven hundred. That's
Lyric Capital one eight hundred and five to one, one
thirty seven hundred.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
It's your morning show with Michael del Chino.
Speaker 4 (31:02):
By the way, Roy wrote back, No, I'm aware of
the ties between Snoop Dogg.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
And uh Martha Stewart. Stewart, but yeah, I don't.
Speaker 4 (31:16):
I wouldn't think and a halftime show of an NFL game.
I don't know. Maybe she'll come out festively dressed and
sing with him or do like a rap. But you know,
I get, I get how tired they are together. Roger wrote,
good morning, consider this my rs VP. I think the
listen how many would be interested? If you really are,
we'll throw out Christmas party next year if you all
(31:37):
want to fly in. I mean, obviously I can't make
the promise we could afford everybody's airfare and hotel, but
we could get we could probably I could talk Premiere
into getting us a ballroom and maybe having a band
and having a.
Speaker 5 (31:49):
Great suggestion from Carmen on the talk back line, all right, a.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
Christmas party would be awesome.
Speaker 5 (31:55):
The Gaylord is the coolest place I've ever been, and
I think you should do.
Speaker 8 (32:00):
One person a month gets a free trip to the
Gay Lord.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
I love that.
Speaker 4 (32:08):
What happened to us is a family getting together every holiday,
per Big John.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Why do I have a.
Speaker 5 (32:13):
Feeling it would be like cousin Eddie coming in.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
And a web I mean, what are you doing in
the drain? I'm empty in the well.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
President Trump says that he will designate Venezuela President Nicholas
Maduro's regime a foreign terrorist organization in order a blockade
of all sanctioned oil tankers. This is my Kennedy reference,
and this is also regime change rearing its head.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
Mark Mayfield tests more.
Speaker 12 (32:41):
In a post on truth Social Trump said he had
directed a total and complete blockade of sanctioned oil shipments,
ramping up pressure on the South American country as tensions
continued to rise. He said his administration is going with
the terrorist designation over what he described as the theft
of US assets and a lunch involvement in terrorism, drunk smuggling,
and human traffick. Trump also claimed Venezuela is surrounded by
(33:02):
the largest naval force ever assembled in South America and
warned the pressure would intensify until oil, land and other
assets are returned.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
To the United States.
Speaker 12 (33:10):
The post comes after the USC's and oil tanker last
week on Venezuela's coast that the administration said was carrying
sanctioned oil from Venezuela and Iran, which Trump said the
United States intends to keep a Mark.
Speaker 4 (33:21):
Mayfield, a family associate tells The New York Times Rob
Reiner's daughter found her father's body. Notice, I said her
father's body at the family home, Jimroop explains.
Speaker 7 (33:32):
The report says a massage therapist contacted Romy Reiner Sunday
after no one answered the gate at her parents' home.
Romy arrived moments later with a roommate and discovered her
father dead. The associated says Romy then left the house
without seeing her mother's body, and was later told by
paramedics her mother was also dead.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
I'm Jimroop. Oh stop, and you know you've sang in
the car to this. None of us are proud of it,
but it happened.
Speaker 4 (34:04):
Whams Last Christmas, claiming then moving up two big notches
at number one on the Billboard. Global two hundred Last
Christmas is at the top of the charts with ninety
five point three million streams five thousand sold worldwide in
a period of just December fifth through December eleventh. The
song is the second holiday hitter rain since the Global
(34:26):
two hundred began back in the COVID year of twenty twenty.
As you can imagine, the reigning champ was Mariah Carey's All.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Christmas. Zillo is naming Santa Claus.
Speaker 4 (34:39):
The end of the most festive town in America.
Speaker 13 (34:41):
Real Estate website analyzed home listings featuring holiday related keywords
to rank the ten most festive towns in the US.
The LIS spans communities from California to Pennsylvania. Santa Claus, Indiana,
took the top spot, with more than half of its
listings referencing the holiday spirit. The town is even equipped
with Sata's post office. Each December of the town also
(35:02):
hosts a three weekend celebration featuring lights, ice skating, and.
Speaker 14 (35:06):
Chest nuts roasting on an open five.
Speaker 13 (35:09):
I'm Tammy Trucho.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
It was Holiday Worlds and splash and Safari. See.
Speaker 4 (35:14):
People don't realize this, but Nashville is not far from
the northern border of the state, so I don't think
Santa Claus was more than an hour and a half
two hours like an hour fifty charming, little town and sports.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
Red Wings beat the Islanders.
Speaker 4 (35:28):
Ducks lost in overtime but got a point to the
Blue Jackets Flyers one four to one of the Canadians.
Penguins lost at home six to four to the Eilers.
Those are in your morning show interest. Don't forget the
NCAA playoffs begin Friday night with that ou footboard game
and the reluctant traveler Eugene Levy from American Pie Shits
Creek eighty years old. Today, actor Bill Pullman seventy three,
(35:49):
the very talented Sarah Paulson fifty two, and boxer Manny
Pacquiao is forty eight. If it's your birthday, Happy Birthday's
so glad you were born, and thanks for waking up
with your morning show.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
Loved it or hate it?
Speaker 4 (36:03):
This year is about to slip into history. Let's look
forward into twenty twenty six. What's expected and what unexpected
is to be dreaded. Our senior contributor David Zanati joins.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
Us, We're all in this together. This is your Morning
Show with Michael ndheld Joano
Hey, it's Michael.
Speaker 2 (00:00):

glad you're here now. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Because we're in the stage.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
This is your morning show with Michael gil Charny.
Speaker 4 (00:34):
Don't you dah If that's news, I was not going
to make it feel any more rested, Get a baby
cup of coffee, join us here at the kitchen table,
and welcome to Wednesday, December the seventeenth, o Lord twenty
twenty five.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
I don't know, we're all still talking about Big John.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
Maybe next year, who knows how big we'll be then,
But maybe we should throw a Christmas party for you. Sorry,
we're losing weight now. I don't mean big as in me,
I mean how many markets? But what if we did?
Speaker 1 (01:05):
You know?
Speaker 4 (01:05):
I mean we couldn't pay for people's airfareer at a hotel,
Lion or something. But I mean we could get a
ballroom or something you want to do, like a drunken buss.
That's I can't be trapped on a bus away that.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
I said, what if we all got on a bus
and went caroling and you brought it to the drunken part.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Well, I mean, because you know, you get you get Jimmy.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Swit's in there.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
You get Pig John next to you know where a
metropolis had a couple of times.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
But maybe by.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
This time next year we will throw a Christmas party
and I'll get together.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
We got the oppera Land hotel. I got people that
work there. We're in. We'll work on it. President Trump's
gonna address the nation. But about what.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
Director Rob Reiner's son is being charged with two counts
of murder, and the timeline is starting to come together.
He checked into a Santa Monica hotel about four a m.
There was blood all in the shower, blood all in
the bed. I think this fight at Conan O'Brien's house
went back to Robin Michelle Reiner's house.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
The crime occurred on Saturday.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
Body was discovered on Sunday, but Rory's following this, and
we'll also get to Brown University as well, Rory. This
timeline is starting to come together a little bit. I
think this drunk of this whatever it was, drugged rage.
I'm presuming now the death was Saturday night. That's what
it appears to be.
Speaker 6 (02:20):
As you said, the holiday party at Conan O'Brien's house.
Many people said that Nick Reiner, he was there, sort
of disheveled, not really taking part in the festivities. Then
there's this blow up with his dad that happens there,
and then they all leave, and then the bodies are
found what three point in the afternoon Pacific time the
(02:40):
following day, by the daughter of the Reiners, the sibling
to Nick, And of course the police investigation has been
underway since then. There's now a high profile defense attorney
representing Nick Reiner, who did not make an appearance in
court yesterday. They hadn't gotten him cleared for health screenings,
so that could be happening today. But we also heard
(03:02):
the DA say that the death penalty is not off
the table in this case, which may just be a
tactic because they perhaps try to negotiate something that avoids
a trial.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
You know, This is a sad I had this conversation
at dinner with my son. It just seems like, and
some of it's anecdotal and some of it is real,
that you can get a much less sentence killing some
a family member or someone you know than if it
were a complete stranger. The burden of proof is different
(03:32):
on the death penalty, although they seem to have a
lot and then you know, you got the drugs involved.
I don't know that that would be a wise way
to go to life sentences. Probably good enough, but this
is problematic for Nick. I presume that the blood all
over that hotel room that he checked into with his
(03:52):
credit card hours after the time of death is going
to be the blood of Rob and Michelle Reiner. So
I think they've got a pretty pretty, you know, open
shot case. I just don't know that I would go
the death sentence with it, although we have a trend
with our listeners about wanting immediate death sentences for deterrence,
But I don't know in this case if it's worth
(04:13):
the extra burden to proof.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
Yeah, you know, some of those drugs to it well, right,
and in some of those cases, you know, the where
the evidence is overwhelming I can understand it. Others it's
a little bit more challenging. I think Florida has had
more overturned death sentences than any but any other state
in the country. But it's yeah, you know again, this
is all going to go to some sort of negotiation
(04:36):
that's going to look at what seventeen years of drug
addiction by Nick Reiner. I think his first rehab stint
was when it was fifteen years old. Went to rehab
seventeen times. Certainly a sympathetic, sympathetic figure when it comes
to his addictions. And we'll see if this ever gets
before jury.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
All right, Well, to Brown University we go. At least
the main stream media is at least starting.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
To express some frustration.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
You have a major, you know, Ivy League university with
no cameras and this guy's roaming around campus.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
And while we.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
Wouldn't have imagined there were no cameras, maybe the shooter
knew there were no cameras. Either way, it's frustrating the
police are having to do double triple duty. We did
get a third piece of footage, all with COVID mask
I mean, do we have one yet unmasked? I don't
think so.
Speaker 6 (05:25):
No, not yet, and the Attorney General has said that
the video from inside is pretty useless. By the way,
we also found out the Louver had no security cameras too, right,
I remember.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
That the family jewels. We were compromised, right, all right?
Speaker 6 (05:39):
So yeah, not a whole lot of specific video that
might get us a name here. But boy, we got
a better idea of his shape. That two tone colored jacket,
the sling bag, the hat, the mask. You know, if
you wore that mask frequently. It's Rhode Island. It's pretty small.
If you don't know him, your cousin does. And you know,
we might get some if he's a local. That's another
factor too.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
All right.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
We have no idea what the president is going to
dress America. And it could be as simple as what
a great year we had and we are the gold
standard of the world. We have the hottest country on
the planet. Could be about Venezuela, could be about isis.
We just simply don't know. Rory will speculate with us.
In the third hour, he'll be back. Can't have your
(06:21):
morning show without your voice, ladies and gentlemen, Let's start
in Arizona.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Morning fellas.
Speaker 7 (06:29):
My guess for who Snoop Dogg's special guest is at halftime,
I'd say Kid Rock and I would approve of that.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
I got this earlier from Roy in Youngstown. If Martha
Stewart isn't one of Snoop's special guests for the halftime show,
I'm going to be immensely disappointed.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
What's Martha going to do?
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Come out and whip up a cast role? You know, yeah,
whip up a casserole. All right, we'll go with that one.
To Roger in California.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Well you, Michael Jeffery read.
Speaker 8 (07:06):
Hey, I've been waiting to share this, but our family
does what we call gift miss. And what we've done
is to take the gift giving part out of Christmas.
We celebrate everything else, and we find that it makes
things less stressful, helps us concentrate on the true meaning
and a Christmas.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
And what gift miss is is we save.
Speaker 8 (07:23):
Our gift giving for the week later, and we do
it on New Year's Day, and we found that it's
worked very good for us. Merry Christmas to all you
and all the listeners.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Yeah, I mean, you know, I could make a quick
joke or we could talk about it seriously. Christ represents
the ultimate gift and a gift we could have never
earned or afforded, and so somewhere along line the tradition became.
That's why I think Christmas is so special for kids,
and then really after kids, I think got to wait
till grandkids, because once you're an adult, if you want something,
(07:55):
you can go get it. It doesn't even have the representation.
And I've told the story of the one time we
were down and out, Mom, me Andrew all together and
we were down in New Orleans moving her out of
a house into a small condo and fixing up the
condo and nobody had any money. It really was the
greatest christ centered and love and family centered Christmas. But
(08:15):
you know, I've got numerous Christmas memories as a child
and with my children, giving them gifts and other traditions
that keep it about. You know, my kids would tell
you that the making of the cookies, the feast, you know,
on Christmas Eve of the fishes, and then going to
church candlelight service on Saturday. I don't I don't even
(08:39):
know if gifts would be their top memory. So there's
a there's a way to do both safely. But whatever
you do, have a merry Christmas and make sure you
know you just don't lose the Christ in all of
the celebration.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
James is in oh hi, oh hey, guys, I found
this interesting. You probably already knew it, though, but glean.
Speaker 9 (09:01):
Glenn Beck did a piece the other day where he
talked about the guy who sang the song the Grinch.
It's the same guy who was the voice for Tony
the Tiger.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
I knew that, Yes, thunder his voice there. Great.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
I should be the new Tony the Tiger. You keep
working on it. You're getting there. Tims in North Carolina,
you speak.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Of Mohama to three Mohammads.
Speaker 8 (09:26):
I'd like I'd like to know is there a book
on that that I could get to read about it?
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Very good show, Thank you very much. You're welcome.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Well, obviously, there's just remember with Islam, there is the
Koran and then there is the Hideith. I wouldn't call
the Koran the Bible, because the Bible claims to be
a living word of God, and I have lived a
life that believes it. So so, but they have the
Koran and they have the Hideeth, which is the life
(09:59):
of Ohaman. Now, obviously, and I'm not being a smart Alec.
Those two would be a good place to start. There
are many experts out there. There are some I respect
more than others. If I had to pick one, and
if you email me Michael di at iHeartMedia dot com.
(10:21):
Otherwise you're gonna have to remember this. But you can
google Bill Warner. Bill did a couple of his first
book in twenty ten, and you're gonna love him. It's
kind of not like Cliff's Notes, but closer to Cliff's notes.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Than big intimidating.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
He's going to take all these things like the Quran
and the head and boil them down for you in
bullet point fashion. So I think for beginning this would
be a great place to start. And his first one
was Sharia Law for Non Muslims, which I always loved
the title because that's what people don't understand. Charia law
is not for Muslims. It's for non Muslims too, because
(10:56):
you don't have any choice. And so why if you
go to Iran today and you're a woman. I don't
think i'd wear a skirt suit if I were you,
and I wouldn't walk around town uncovered if I were you.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
That's Kasheria laws for non Muslims. That's a great one.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
He also did the Life of Mohammed, which really cuts
the chase of what you're talking about. But I will
say this simply, if whether you're reading the Koran or
you're reading the Hidith, you're going to see and walk
through the three contradicting lives in Mohammad. He started in Mecca,
one of three hundred and sixty five religions, completely tolerant,
(11:34):
a little intolerant, then he started robbing. Then he became
much more political, and then ultimately a warrior. So Bill
Warner and I could send you the link to all
of his little books, but i'd start with Life Mohammed
and shri Law for non Muslims. Lisa Is I could
open the door and yell to her, couldn't I. Lisa's
(11:54):
right here in Tennessee.
Speaker 10 (11:56):
I have to tell you that I agree with you.
I love I'm not president. I love everything that he's
been doing. But I got that IgG feeling when he
sent that that tweet. So I'm with you on that,
just not a good feeling.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Nobody worried that we're going there again.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
I would just say that I was mentioning yesterday that
I'm a little politically dumbfounded.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Where was Susie Wiles?
Speaker 4 (12:20):
I think I said in my frustration, And now today
we wake up, we find out Susie Wiles is busy
doing interviews with Vanity Fair and then being betrayed, and
now everybody's having to defend her right head the line
of the day. What are they doing sitting down with
Vanity Fair? What were the folks at the Atlantic too busy?
And then what do you expect? Let's give Joey a
(12:41):
different Joey, Joey and Pa the final say.
Speaker 11 (12:44):
Good morning, MIKEI I gotta go along with Joey. Public punishment,
go back to biblical times.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
I for an eye and ear for an ear.
Speaker 11 (12:52):
Is why the Singapore government has such a low crime rate,
because they have public punishment and have to go along
with Big John. We should have our own Christmas party,
all right.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
We're gonna kick that around for next year. Wouldn't that
be fun? If all of you were.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Willing to fly in, Oh my god, get a nice
little we could all stay at the Gay Lord. Yeah,
and we will all bring in the Christmas season together
with great cheer.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
I would love that. There's nobody I'd rather spend time
within you my listeners, all right.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Doctors call it weight cycling, others have called it yo yoing,
whichever you call it. Half of Americans do it. So
when you lose ten pounds, gain it back, lose it again,
lose it, get it back, and then some It's really
tough on your body and it's not so good for
your mind because it's so frustrating. And the bottom line is,
we need help losing weight. And here's a great weight
non prescription, Lean created by doctors. It's an oral supplement,

not an injectable, and it's science is impressive. The studied

If you're just waking up, these are your top stories.
President Trump is going to address the nation tonight, but
about what.
Speaker 12 (14:52):
In a truth social posts, the President said he will
speak from the White House at nine pm Eastern. He
did not provide any details about what he will be
speaking about. Trump ended his post by saying, it has
been a great year for our country and the best
is yet to come.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
A Markenefield director Rob Reiner's son is being charged with
two counts the first degree murder and the stabbing death
of his parents.
Speaker 13 (15:11):
Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hafkman made the announcement
on Tuesday.
Speaker 14 (15:15):
These charges will be two counts of first degree murder
with a special circumstance of multiple murders. He also faces
a special allegation that he personally used a dangerous and
deadly weapon, that being a knife.
Speaker 13 (15:30):
If convicted, Nick Reiner could face life in prison. The
bodies of seventy eight year old Rob Reiner and his wife,
seventy year old Michelle Singer Reiner, were discovered in their
Los Angeles home on Sunday afternoon. I'm Tammy Trujillo.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
Well, we are shopping this holiday season, but we're spending less.
Sarah le Kessler reports.
Speaker 15 (15:50):
It's a season to be jolly, but apparently it's also
time to be thrifty. And NBC News Decision Desk poll
found that fifty five percent of US are spending some
holiday gifts this year, thirty six percent say they're spending
about the same, and just nine percent are shelling out
more for holiday gifts. The poll didn't find a lot
of correlation with our financial situations. Forty one percent of
(16:13):
Americans say it's about the same as last year, twenty
four percent called it better, and only thirty five percent
sent it's worse.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
I'm Sarah Lee Kessler.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
The most popular holiday dish in each of the fifty
states has been revealed.
Speaker 12 (16:27):
The website Delicia dot Com used Google trends and other
search data to determine the most popular holiday food in
each state. Kramlings one of the most popular in Alaska,
Prime rib took the top spot in Idaho, and gumbo
was the favorite in Louisiana. In Pennsylvania, Pizzelli's are the
most popular food item this year. Bizzelli's originated in Italy
and are described as a waffle like cookie which can
(16:48):
either be crispy and crunchy or soft and chewy.

I'm mart nephew.

so we'll have a lot more focus on Tomorrow and Friday.
Speaker 4 (17:39):
On the Birth of a Savior talkbacks. They were down
yesterday and it was not the same without you. I
had a little thing happened here at my house with
my production computer. I guess I've just never been on
my computer when it literally keels over and dies. Oh really,
And we spent two hours trying to revive it, and
(18:01):
finally my engineer called it's death.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
They ordered me a new one. We got it, and
then I by.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
The time I got it last night, I was supposed
to wait, but I installed it and I still don't.
I cannot tell you how I did all this. I
had to install the scarlet, the two drivers. Then I
had to install the Adobe audition system, and I mean
I did it. You're quite the tinkerer, so you can
normally see it. It took me a long longer time than
somebody knew what they were doing. But timeow I got
(18:27):
I man, I'll be able to get off the air.
Cut your promos email them to you. I mean, I
think I'm growing up. They're a big boy now I am.
But it's nice to have the talkbacks back. That was
not as easy of a fix. I'm just wandered. Some
kind of crazy hacking going on right now. But we
have you back, and I want to go to Bruce.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
I want to a minute.
Speaker 5 (18:53):
That is the wrong one. Sorry, you went to the
wrong one. I wasn't prepared for. Sorry, here's Bruce.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
This is Bruce going from Tampa Bay. My morning show
is your morning show.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
Oh yeah, now I know why you didn't want to
go there, all right, So we're going to uh Port Charlotte, Florida.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
This will be Carla.
Speaker 16 (19:13):
With the attacks in Syria, Australia, the foiled plots in
the United States, the closed Christmas celebration in Paris during
our high holy days for Christians and for Jews, I
think we will be seeing one of these tacks over
the next several weeks. This is the real face of terror.
Speaker 4 (19:34):
Well, we talked about this yesterday at great length, and
I addressed in our Platinum Hour earlier. You know, obviously, Russia, China, Iran,
North Korea, these are predictable fronts of war in our hemisphere.
Venezuela is a problem, but there's nothing more important than
the war on terror, and ISIS shows us that even
(19:54):
though the President identified them as evil, targeted them and
destroyed them in the first term, they have clearly grown.
Usually they grow another head and become something else. But
ISIS itself appears to be back.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Now.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
I will say this, that's definitely an ISIS tie with
the ISIS flags and bombs in the vehicles in Sydney.
It was definitely ISIS ties with the attacking of two
of our soldiers and an interpreter in Syria. We cannot
make the assumption that that was ISIS. That was up
(20:27):
to no good in southern California because that was a
different liberation front that's anti capitalist. And there have been
reports that the Brown University shooter shouted a la akbar,
but there's no confirmation of that. We know he shouted something.
Some students are saying he shouted at a la akbar.
He certainly does not look Muslim to me, although he
(20:47):
could be an American convert or an American radicalization.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
So time will tell. But you can't turn a blind
eye to this.
Speaker 4 (20:54):
And I will say this, I wouldn't want to get
into a long conversation, not with a White House correspondent
of John Prestige standing by. But I have the same
feeling that it's going to be a rocky road next year,
and I think terrorism might be one of the tentacles
we're dealing with most All right, last chance, Well, let
me tell you something. Every day, John Decker, is a
(21:16):
last chance for Congress.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
To actually do something.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
But this one the last chance to do something on
healthcare and get a vote before recess.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
Give us the very latest.
Speaker 17 (21:26):
Well, the latest is that the Senate Majority Leader John
Souons said this won't happen this year.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
He made that clear.
Speaker 17 (21:34):
So regardless of what happens with that House vote today,
and there will be a House vote today, it will
not contain an amendment that would extend those expiring Obamacare subsidies,
there is nothing that will prevent a rise in premiums
next year for twenty four million Americans who get their
healthcare insurance through the Affordable Care Act.
Speaker 4 (21:57):
I might add too, there's a lot of people that
don't businesses that aren't going to be happy because their
expense for providing for their employees is also going up.
That's being lost in this. And then all this goes
down through the matrix. Right, So the left will tell you,
look what Donald Trump did, He just raised everybody's premiums.
The right will say, no, this is Obamacare. It never
(22:19):
insured everyone. It never lowered premiums, It never improved healthcare,
and we've been subsidizing it. And the subsidies had an
expiration date. They rightly expired. We're not in a COVID crisis.
But at the end of the day, it's still going
to be happy. New Year insurance is forty percent more.
I mean, it's so frustrating. Politics over governing. Oh, it
(22:45):
is frustrating. There's no doubt about that.
Speaker 17 (22:47):
And as you point out, these were subsidies that related
to the pandemic. These were extended subsidies because there already
were subsidies to begin with. These were enhanced subsidies only
in play because of the pandemic. And look at your calendar.
Everybody knows in America the subsidy the pandemic is over
(23:07):
and as a result, those extended subsidies are going away.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Well, the Brown University shooter didn't know that because he's
still walking around as a mask. But I couldn't resist
that one, all right.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
But my point is, if these would put their parties aside,
be Americans, be representatives, be statesman's governed, stopped just constantly campaigning,
they should address the healthcare crisis. And you wouldn't be
in these situations, but for a lot of individuals and
for a lot of companies, there's no stopping the rate increase.
(23:41):
There will be no deal. According to the Senate leadership
this year, John is we did it in a joke
because I didn't know how to do it. Seriously, is
the white I mean yesterday I was saying I really
didn't appreciate the president's true social post on Rob Reiner,
now that I was a fan of Rob Reiner, I
just don't believe that's the way you talk about other
(24:01):
sacred human beings. And I say sacred because God is
sacred and created us in his image, and two wrongs
don't make him might And that's going lower all that
immature nonsense, right, But I made the comment. What's politically
dumbfounding is where were the hell was Susie Wiles to protect.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Them from doing something like that?
Speaker 4 (24:19):
While we find out she's busy with Vanity Fair and
then wondering how she got betrayed. I presume the Atlantic
folks were just too busy. But what do you expect
sitting down with these people? But how big of a
deal is that today? These people look? These people?
Speaker 17 (24:32):
You act as if you know there was a gun
to the head of Susie Wiles. Susie Wiles did eleven interviews,
eleven hour long interviews over the course of eleven months.
And although they say, oh, taken out of context, you
need to have context. No one is saying from the
White House's perspective, no one is saying that this individual
(24:56):
made up quotes that well those person wrote were lies,
because it is truthful tape recorded.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Ever, that's an old school term.
Speaker 17 (25:04):
He used an audio device to record all of the conversations,
and as a result, they can say that because he's
got all those receipts that he can play, and he
is playing. So look, this was a huge mistake. I
don't know why you do this other than vanity, because
and it's vanity fair.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Other than vanity.
Speaker 17 (25:25):
All right, Michael, they're taking pictures, you know these these
you know.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
These pictures in.
Speaker 17 (25:32):
The Oval office, in the Roosevelt Room, in the cabinet room.
They're posing for pictures. They knew what they were doing.
And as they say, the chickens have come home to roost.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
I can comment a loner with you. I just don't
know how much time you have if you need to go.
I'll do your out queue and then i'll do it.
I'm just going to talk about interviews and the only
way to protect yourself and be safe. Obviously, you're painting
the powerful picture. Everything was relaxed, everything was trusting. They
think they're the greatest thing on earth, and they presume
everybody that comes and witnesses what they're doing and where
(26:07):
they're doing it is going to think it's the greatest
thing on earth. And you can give them quotes that
can be used in portion, not in hole, which is
where the context comes in. It's not a misquote, it's
a reckless quote that never should have been made and
allowed to be taken in any portion other than completely.
And then you got to, you know, be a little
bit picky about who you choose to allow in or not.
(26:28):
But yeah, this is, this is I don't know, we're
having some really unforced errors before the end of the
year and I have I haven't even done year in
review with you yet. That's good. That'll be a big
topic today, along with trying to get a healthcare build
that isn't coming.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
John.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
I'll have more during his podcast The White House Briefing
Room that's up by nine am Eastern, eighth Central.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
If you want to know more.
Speaker 4 (26:51):
Directly from you got it, God bless you, my friend.
If you want to know more from the White House,
that's coming up. But no, I mean, I've been interviewed
before and it's hard to do. I'm older now and
I don't fall for it. So no matter what they
ask me, what comes out of my mouth is a
complete beginning, middle, and end sentence and thought. And there's
(27:15):
no loosening up, and there's no and they'll keep reasking
and they'll keep probing, and you have to keep saying
the same thing back. Now, a savvy reporter is going
to realize, Okay, this guy's not going to loosen up.
I'm not going to catch him in anything. I'm not
going to have anything I can twist. And at that
point they'll just pick your three worst quotes or three
(27:36):
least meaningful things you said, and then tailor all there
writing around it. If Andity Fair made Susie Wilds look bad,
it's because she trusted him too much, watched him around
the White House, talked loosely and longley, and the guy
waited a long time and pieced together something that made
her and the President look bad. It doesn't make Susie
(27:57):
Wild bad. It makes her needing to be more careful
in the future about who you trust. But your joke,
you know, we have this emoji and then the old lol.
I really did laugh out loud when you said that
with the freaker, these people think in vanity fair? Would
they expect? What was the Atlantic busy? I just if
I'd have had a simp of coffee to have been the
old fashioned spit take.
Speaker 8 (28:17):
But go ahead, no, no, imagine this, Michael. I mean,
we're trying to not play shirts and skins, right, So
let's say they sit, they go, Okay, we've been on
Fox far too long. Let's throw these guys a bone.
And they do and they get burned, which of course
was going to happen. But can you jump on them
for trying to make an honest effort with a dishonest partner.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
Yeah, I mean, you've got to protect yourself more.
Speaker 8 (28:43):
And what makes eleven hours? Eleven hours?
Speaker 4 (28:45):
Eleven It's way way too long to spend with anybody
that is a perceived enemy. Look, if you do a
live interview on CNN and this type of thing happens,
you a Donald Trump's proven you can sue them, and
it's quite lucrative, but you can always play it in
its entirety. When you spend eleven hours with somebody with
their little digital recorder, he can stand by, They're never
(29:07):
going to release all eleven hours, and he can pick
up what do I talk to people all the time.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
I try to teach you about bias.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
Stories you cover, stories you don't angles, You choose angles,
you don't people you talk to people you don't quote,
You choose quote you don't, and then all the wording
around it that sets it up. That's why we live
in a world of narrative, not news. What's more tragic
is we live in a world of narrative repeaters.
Speaker 8 (29:37):
Not news reading what ultimately and what ultimately happens from
this is sty'll only go on Fox.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
And then that just builds the matrix.
Speaker 4 (29:45):
Look, history shows that markets can fall and currencies can collapse.
Today the dollar is shrinking, or trillions in debt thirty
seven record high. Markets define gravity and may they always,
but stocks can't quote forever. Meanwhile, our groceries, housing, transportation
costs are rising, and our dollar it's buying less every day.
(30:07):
So if and when a crash hits. One thing we know,
stocks won't save you. Dollars won't either. One thing will gold.
Gold has always survived, and that's why the central banks
are buying it up by the ton. Billionaires are stocking
up every day, Americans are protecting their savings in retirement
with physical gold. Only for the headlines or the panic
(30:28):
that's too late, call Dear Capital today eight hundred five

It's your morning show with Michael del Chino.
Speaker 4 (31:02):
By the way, Roy wrote back, No, I'm aware of
the ties between Snoop Dogg.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
And uh Martha Stewart. Stewart, but yeah, I don't.
Speaker 4 (31:16):
I wouldn't think and a halftime show of an NFL game.
I don't know. Maybe she'll come out festively dressed and
sing with him or do like a rap. But you know,
I get, I get how tired they are together. Roger wrote,
good morning, consider this my rs VP. I think the
listen how many would be interested? If you really are,
we'll throw out Christmas party next year if you all
(31:37):
want to fly in. I mean, obviously I can't make
the promise we could afford everybody's airfare and hotel, but
we could get we could probably I could talk Premiere
into getting us a ballroom and maybe having a band
and having a.
Speaker 5 (31:49):
Great suggestion from Carmen on the talk back line, all right, a.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
Christmas party would be awesome.
Speaker 5 (31:55):
The Gaylord is the coolest place I've ever been, and
I think you should do.
Speaker 8 (32:00):
One person a month gets a free trip to the
Gay Lord.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
I love that.
Speaker 4 (32:08):
What happened to us is a family getting together every holiday,
per Big John.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Why do I have a.
Speaker 5 (32:13):
Feeling it would be like cousin Eddie coming in.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
And a web I mean, what are you doing in
the drain? I'm empty in the well.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
President Trump says that he will designate Venezuela President Nicholas
Maduro's regime a foreign terrorist organization in order a blockade
of all sanctioned oil tankers. This is my Kennedy reference,
and this is also regime change rearing its head.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
Mark Mayfield tests more.
Speaker 12 (32:41):
In a post on truth Social Trump said he had
directed a total and complete blockade of sanctioned oil shipments,
ramping up pressure on the South American country as tensions
continued to rise. He said his administration is going with
the terrorist designation over what he described as the theft
of US assets and a lunch involvement in terrorism, drunk smuggling,
and human traffick. Trump also claimed Venezuela is surrounded by
(33:02):
the largest naval force ever assembled in South America and
warned the pressure would intensify until oil, land and other
assets are returned.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
To the United States.
Speaker 12 (33:10):
The post comes after the USC's and oil tanker last
week on Venezuela's coast that the administration said was carrying
sanctioned oil from Venezuela and Iran, which Trump said the
United States intends to keep a Mark.
Speaker 4 (33:21):
Mayfield, a family associate tells The New York Times Rob
Reiner's daughter found her father's body. Notice, I said her
father's body at the family home, Jimroop explains.
Speaker 7 (33:32):
The report says a massage therapist contacted Romy Reiner Sunday
after no one answered the gate at her parents' home.
Romy arrived moments later with a roommate and discovered her
father dead. The associated says Romy then left the house
without seeing her mother's body, and was later told by
paramedics her mother was also dead.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
I'm Jimroop. Oh stop, and you know you've sang in
the car to this. None of us are proud of it,
but it happened.
Speaker 4 (34:04):
Whams Last Christmas, claiming then moving up two big notches
at number one on the Billboard. Global two hundred Last
Christmas is at the top of the charts with ninety
five point three million streams five thousand sold worldwide in
a period of just December fifth through December eleventh. The
song is the second holiday hitter rain since the Global
(34:26):
two hundred began back in the COVID year of twenty twenty.
As you can imagine, the reigning champ was Mariah Carey's All.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Christmas. Zillo is naming Santa Claus.
Speaker 4 (34:39):
The end of the most festive town in America.
Speaker 13 (34:41):
Real Estate website analyzed home listings featuring holiday related keywords
to rank the ten most festive towns in the US.
The LIS spans communities from California to Pennsylvania. Santa Claus, Indiana,
took the top spot, with more than half of its
listings referencing the holiday spirit. The town is even equipped
with Sata's post office. Each December of the town also
(35:02):
hosts a three weekend celebration featuring lights, ice skating, and.
Speaker 14 (35:06):
Chest nuts roasting on an open five.
Speaker 13 (35:09):
I'm Tammy Trucho.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
It was Holiday Worlds and splash and Safari. See.
Speaker 4 (35:14):
People don't realize this, but Nashville is not far from
the northern border of the state, so I don't think
Santa Claus was more than an hour and a half
two hours like an hour fifty charming, little town and sports.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
Red Wings beat the Islanders.
