Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, it's me Michael. Your morning show can be heard
on great stations across the country like Talk Radio eleven
ninety and Dallas Fort Worth Freedom one oh four point
seven and Washington, d C and five point fifty k
FYI and Phoenix, Arizona. We'd love to be a part
of your morning routine or take us along on the
drive to work, but as we always say, better late
than never. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Well two three, starting your morning off right, A new
way of talk, a new way of understanding.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Because we're in this compiling. This is your morning show
with Michael O'Dell chorny you Good morning, Jamie. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (00:37):
I think one of the main issues I have with
celebrities speaking attim out about their political ideas is that,
you know, we tend to hold people up like for
what made them famous. You know, they may be an expert,
you know, football player or an actor, singer or whatever,
but it doesn't necessarily make them great at public policies
or or politics or anything like that. And so you know,
(00:59):
you think this person's famous, they must be in the
know when there's viewing out their opinion, it may not
be I think.
Speaker 5 (01:05):
The issue with celebrities voicing their opinion about politics, is
that we really like them as actors, and then when
they say something that they believe in that us as
conservatives completely do not believe in, it's just hard to
have respect for them.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Jamie Almen, this is Jamie from Saint Louis.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
I just wanted to say how awesome it is to
hear you in the morning again and from my family
to yours.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Happy New Year, and happy New Year to all of
you as well, and thank you Jamie, and thank you
those of you who chimed in on the iHeartRadio app
and that talk that feature on the microphone. Love hearing
from you and your own stories and your own views
about what is going on in the world. And this
(01:56):
is your morning show with Michael del Jornal. I'm Jamie Almen.
Really happy to be filling in for him, and he's
a great guy, and I'm honored to be here, and
so I appreciate all of you listening to the show
and spending your time with me and the show this
morning on this New Year's Eve.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
And to the points.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
About the celebrities, I think absolutely there's there's a certain
level of manipulation that goes into some celebrities when they
speak out, I think they're taking advantage of the fact
that people are listening to them, and so they're using
(02:37):
their celebrity status not really to promote well, I mean
pet causes. I mean, there are a lot, a lot
of about celeberties who speak out, you know, against breast
can you know, for more breast cancer research, things that
are you know, obviously altruistic. And there are others who
just simply use it either to feed their own egos
or to manipulate people and take advantage of the fact
(02:59):
that they might be well liked to whenever I can't
imagine what, and the market then ultimately decides. So personally
my views, I think Will Ferrell is really funny, Like
I really like him. I like his movies, I like
his bits on SNL. But when it came out that
(03:22):
he was doing whole, the whole you know, guy men
for real, men for Kamala or whatever that was. And
it's not that I hate Kamala Harris fory thing. I'm
just saying that it changed my opinion of him. I
look at him differently. Robert de Niro, Okay, I still
might watch The Godfather. Yeah, I mean I don't think
(03:43):
I ever could not watch that or Goodfellas, you know
what I mean. But still it changes your opinion and
your viewpoint. It makes things a little messier. It's it
changes your view of these visuals, and it makes the
experience of taking in their art a little bit different.
(04:07):
I mean, I think we're human beings. That's how we respond,
that's how we act. I mean, it's the way we are,
and so it does change your opinion about things like
there's a place in the Saint Louis area that is
a spice store. Okay, they sell spices like they are
(04:27):
a halfway decent spice place, but their website is so
horrifically anti Trump, anti conservative whatever that I'll never go there.
And I cook a lot, but I'd never go to
this place. I would never want to give them a
(04:48):
dime of my money. Conversely, however, even when you look
at people who are supporting your morning show or that
kind of thing, a lot of people who support the
these kinds of open and common sense platforms are rewarded handsomely.
And I will tell you that there are a lot
of people in our world who are benefiting greatly from
(05:13):
supporting our world and so that's that's the key there
is Sometimes positively it could really be a factor, especially
when businesses step up and support things they usually consumers
will reward them handsling your your views of certain stores
and certain outlets. I remember a bed Bath and Beyond.
(05:35):
Remember those guys, we're gonna stop selling my pillow brand.
And have you seen a bed bath and beyond anywhere
on the planet these days?
Speaker 1 (05:46):
No?
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Uh, people, people stop going there. You know. It was
the dumbest possible thing you could do.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
So sometimes as a marketing from a marketing standpoint, you
got to be really super careful about that. Andfortunately for
more of the liberal businesses, they tend to suffer more
than the conservatives ones do. I don't know why that is,
but loyalty is super important to a lot of people
(06:14):
in the common sense world, and that's how it goes
for people like Rob Reiner and Bette Niddler and those
kinds of people.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
You know Rob Reiner, really, I mean, he's not.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Selling anything, he's not doing Anything's mead, you know, I did.
I did enjoy him on all in the family that
I had to tell you that as meathead, he was
all right, right, Jeff, I mean he was pretty good,
you know, it was a great cast. Yeah, you know.
And then Sally Struthers. I think the last time I
(06:46):
saw her she was feeding the Hungary in Africa or something,
and oh god, that's cool.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
Sally Stutters is cool.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
And whatever you're doing, you know, your cameraman could have
him a sandwich.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
But that's okay, it's not a big deal.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
But still I think that, you know, it depends on
whether you're positive or negative. Also, so when all you
do is negativity, which is what Reiner and Bette Midler
and these other people do, then people tend to turn
out like Robert de Niro was borderline psycho about Donald Trump,
(07:22):
and I can't figure out. I can't figure out why.
It's like, dude, you should be like the happiest guy
on the planet. You've got great actor, great movies and
whatever else.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
He's my prerogative to tell you how to think of
what to say.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Yeah, you know, I mean, and and plus he The
worst part is that Robert de Niro tries to pull
off this kind of mobster act when he's hating on Trump.
It's like, dude, come on, we know, I mean, so
that's exploitation and manipulation, and I think most people, but
(07:57):
you know, the market decides in the end, whether it
be music or whatever, like for instance, Green Day. Like
I know a lot of people who love the band
Green Day. In fact, one day I was listening to
the radio and I hear a Green Day song. I
don't know, it's a Green Day song. I'm thinking, boy,
that's a good song. I'm going done it. But I
(08:17):
hated them. I know they didn't like them. I hates
a strong word, but you know, they're like super unpatriotic,
and I just would never consume their music, even as
good as they are. It's just like you know, Neil
Young on the other hand, all right, so you have
an anti George Bush song, that's all right. You know,
I still listen to your music because I grew up
with it and I'm good. But you notice a lot
(08:39):
of musicians, depending on where they are, kind of stay out.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Of the fray a little bit.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Springsteen, who I used to adore, love, have all of
his albums and everything else, I have a hard time
listening to him now just because of what I know
about him, and all it does is it reminds me
of what he stands for, which It isn't really shouldn't
(09:05):
be the thing that somebody who's important thinks they're branding
is important to remind you shouldn't listen to somebody and go, oh,
that's the Obama guy, you know, as opposed to oh,
that's Bruce Springsteen.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
Love is songwriting, He's awesome. What are your thoughts on this?
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Would love to hear him, and folks, I got news
for you the border situation and the border union. Now
they are joining forces with mister Holman and not taking
any guff for those who might resist.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
The deportation moves.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
It's your Morning show with Michael Del Chorno.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Is this Ferguson something Ferguson? Because this is good. I
love thunder Island. Good call, Yes, Sir, Jay Ferguson thunder.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
I man, oh right on, man, this takes me right
back in nineteen seventy seven or something like that. I
think I don't know what that is, but yeah, this
is your morning show with Michael Del Journo. Jamie Ollman
here along with Jeff and Redd and hey, by the way,
I have to tell you that it is possible to
(10:17):
get along with people.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Personally and beyond who don't agree with you.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
So I you know, I'm the youngest of six kids,
and I'm the only conservative in my family, and I
couldn't love my siblings more. And I think maybe it's
because we don't spend a lot of time, you know.
You know, you always had that person who emails you
(10:45):
links without a comment and and that becomes their comment.
And we don't really get into much political jousting. And
that's fine. And actually the most jousting I do politically
is with my ninety six year old old mother, who
I'm very very I'm very very close to her, so
she is my rock. I love her, and she and
(11:08):
I get together all the time and even almost lit
each other on fire on Christmas Eve when we were
making her oyster stew. And so we have a ton
of fun together and have Well. To tell you the truth,
and I hope this doesn't sound bad, but one of
our favorite things to do, we do it on Monday nights,
(11:29):
is we have a nice stiff vodka and go over
a scripture from the weekend. That's kind of that's the mix.
But anyway, my mother cannot stand Donald Trump. She despises
Donald Trump, and I always tease her. I'm thinking, well,
that's because probably because he reminds you of my father,
(11:52):
probably their divorce or whatever. Probably because my dad was
kind of that swinging madman sixties type of guy, And
that might be the reasons. Because she has kind of
some attitude about that whatever. But we laugh about it
and and none of that really spills over into any
of our.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
Conversations. Whatever.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Sometimes we'll talk about it and do that kind of thing,
and sometimes I've got to give you just Unfortunately she
watches the PBS News Hour sometimes when I'm over there
and i've got to I occasionally will be the other
side of the story for her.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Uh, And that's okay.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
You know, she doesn't mind that, and we don't get
into too many arguments, and she's she's just she's just great.
So it is possible, I guess, to transfer that to
celebrities who you have a level of intimacy with just
in terms of how you like their movies or their
songs or that kind of thing.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
But I think it's a little.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Harder with people who you really don't know or maybe
intimate with their with their art, but don't know them personally.
It's a little harder to separate that. And I think
sometimes it's even more fascinating to me. Like, for instance,
Jeff was playing Billy Joel on the way out the
last segment, and I was like, oh, like Billy Joel
(13:13):
just kind of does his thing, keeps his mouth shut.
Elton John will pair occasionally dabble in things like that,
but for the most part, there are a lot of
people out there who just kind of do their thing
and you never know exactly how they feel. So yeah,
I mean, sometimes it's just nice to just relax, and
sometimes people just don't make it very easy to do.
(13:38):
And one example would be, for instance, so there's this
pop Tarts Bowl that happened and it was I think
Miami and Iowa State and and so people were very
upset about the halftime show with the pop Tarts and
(14:01):
I'm thinking, you gotta be kidding me, really, and pop Tarts,
by the way, even the pop Tarts Bowl, I have
to admire these people who these companies who really brand
themselves excellently, and pop Tarts is a great brandy.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
They've stayed with it.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
They haven't changed too much, with the exception of putting,
you know, certain different kinds of frosting on them. But
the pop tart has remained the same forever, even though
it might be a little smaller whatever. And then not
only that, but they're surprisingly low in fat.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Just in case you were wondering.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
There's you know, hugely high in sugar, watch out and sodium.
But a couple of them are like four hundred calories.
So if you can afford that in the morning, not
a lot of fat in it. Calories aren't necessarily that
bad for you. It's the fat sometimes it'll get you.
But they're but they're still, you know, a staple. And
what's great is that you can eat them cold or
(15:00):
you can eat them toasted. And I have no by
the way, I have no investments or stock dividends and
pop tarts.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
I'm just saying so.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Anyway, people are really unhappy about the pop Tarts Bowl
halftime show where the pop Tarts all came out onto
the field, you know, and they look like pop tarts
right with oil, with the Nola swagger, and it doesn't
give a fudge if you're toasted or not. It's hot
(15:33):
fudge sun day.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
So with purple frosting and fruity filling. Too tasty, the.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Tame Yeah we got you, buddy, Yeah, so then we
have the situation where the pop tarts have the foil
on them and they come out marching and they start
they take the foil off and reveal themselves to be
the fudge whatever, or the strawberry or strawberry that. And
apparently there's outrage in certain conservative media circles that this
(16:07):
was blasphemous, it was a strip show and all this
kind of stuff. It's like, no, they were just pop
tart people taking the wrapper off. It's a football game,
it's a halftime show. It's okay, it's all good.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
This is Andy Hickson, formerly of Nashville and now living
in Detroit, Michigan. Thanks to iHeartRadio, My Morning show is
your morning show him Michael del Jorno, and your Morning
Show can be heard live as it's happening five to
(16:45):
eight am Central and six to nine Eastern. Non great
stations like six point twenty WJDX and Jackson, Mississippi or Akrons,
News Talk six point forty WHLO and AKRON, Ohio and
News Radio five seventy WDAK and Columbus, Georgia love to
be part of your morning routine. We're glad you're here.
Now enjoyed the podcast be with you in the mornings
and appreciate you so much. All right, So watch out
(17:09):
for this.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
There's going to be a happiness mega study on the way.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
So all these scientists are getting together.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
To create a new study on basically what the true
secret to happiness is. And the article that I'm looking
at is from the Telegraph and in the UK, and
the article actually points to a to a study that
(17:44):
was done at Harvard and this was the longest studies
of happiness that ever took place, and it's very revealing.
And this was a study that followed the lives of
two hundred sixty eight.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
Men who.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Entered college in the late nineteen thirties. So this is
an old study. And the key finding of the study
was that close relationships were far more important than money
or fame in ensuring people lived a happy life, and
(18:26):
it was important to people living a longer life as well.
And so it was really fascinating to see the study
that this article pointed out. I'm thinking, well, then, what's
the point of having another study at this point unless
you're trying you know, you know.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
You know, the scientific community.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
It's like you know, driving an electric car, Well, is
the key to happiness or whatever. I don't know, but
I'm always suspicious because this seemed like the most natural study.
This seemed like the most natural conclusion because it all
makes total sense about close relationships and how that affects
people's lives certain people. Obviously, there are some people who
(19:08):
don't really need it or require it or what have you.
But it seems to me that like, there's not very
much to improve upon there except maybe having the conclusion
that maybe being closer to God. I don't know. There's
a lot of ways that I could describe keys to happiness,
(19:29):
but when this Harvard study came out with the key
to happiness being close relationships, it made all the sense
in the world. So I'm trying to figure out what
the purpose of the Mega study is now, where apparently
like seventy thousand scientists from around the world are going
to be now doing a happiness study. And it seems
(19:52):
to me that I'm almost positive that their conclusion. I'm
not trying to be skeptical or sin here, but I'm
almost positive that their conclusion will probably not be that
simple little thing about close relationships. And sometimes it can
be a close relationship with God. Sometimes it can be
a close relationship with your spouse or your brother, or
(20:15):
your friend, or your mother or your father, whatever. Something
tells me that the study is going to have vastly
different conclusions, or it's going to have a bunch of conclusions.
Got well, these are the five keys to happiness. I'm
just gonna give you one. We're gonna be a five,
so we cover all the bases, and you know, one
(20:37):
of them might be eating pop stars.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
I'm all I'm saying is I feel like the study
has already been done and I can buy into that
conclusion almost automatically.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
I love it. So I don't know why they're doing
it again.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
All right, people, So as we enter into this brand
new year, one of the things that has not been
talked about a whole lot is President Trump might be
on his way to his fourth Supreme Court appointment. And
as you all know, they tried to run one of
them out. The Democrats did retire early so that Biden
(21:15):
would do whatever, but that wasn't gonna happen. And now
even CBS News is saying, yeah, he might just have
a fourth of that.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
To the court.
Speaker 6 (21:22):
I think that Donald Trump will probably get his fourth
nomination to the Supreme Court either this year or maybe
next year.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Because someone retires. Justice Samuly too.
Speaker 6 (21:32):
Justice Samuly, he was nominated took the bench in two
thousand and six after nearly two decades on the court.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Yeah, the Court saying, sam Alito, but you could have
a couple other ones retiring as well. There's a chance
that when all of a sudden done, by twenty twenty eight,
President Trump could appoint three more Supreme Court Justices. I mean,
it could happen that way, which is probably why so
(21:59):
many people on the left side of the spectrum were
probably a little upset but didn't really want to give
anybody any ideas. But that's a strong possibility. It might
not be just one. In fact, I'd be actually surprised
if sam Alito is the first one to get out.
(22:20):
That would be actually surprising to me. And a couple
other ones who I think could possibly leave also good news.
And this is making me happy as well, although I
do believe close relationships would be the key to happiness,
but so is endurance and strength. And we have the
Border Patrol Union guy now saying that, hey, we're all
(22:44):
on board with this. Tom Holme and Mass deportation thing,
and anybody who thinks otherwise is crazy.
Speaker 7 (22:51):
So what I say is take President Trump and his
incoming administration at their word.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
They're going to do the job of protecting Americans.
Speaker 7 (22:59):
And so it would be incumbent upon those sanctuary cities
and jurisdictions to understand one thing. Federal law supersedes state law.
Any municipality, anybody that's going to get in the way
is going to be dealt with. And so they need
to take this incoming administration at its word because they're
going to have some of the best legal minds working
within the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security.
Speaker 3 (23:22):
So it's not something that they're taking lightly. Yeah, that's
the chief of the Border Patrol.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
So these folks are ready to rock and we'll see
how it all unfolds.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
This is your morning show with Michael Deltno.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
And certainly appreciate you spending this last day before twenty
twenty five with your morning show and with me.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
And by the way, you know, I don't know whether
they're just purposely trying to keep people there's no okay,
time square and the ball drop thing. I think I've
always kind of wanted to maybe see it in person,
but then I see it on television, and I always
(24:08):
think I wouldn't want to be there, you know what
I mean. I like, it's more fun almost to watch
it on TV. It was certainly much more fun when
Dick Clark was around, but nonetheless it's more fun to
kind of just watch it on TV and do whatever.
And then the thing that basically ensure that I would
never go there is that no alcohol, no coolers, and
(24:31):
no chairs. It's like, who would go to anything that
would tell you can't do those three things? I would never.
It would never. The only time I would ever accept
that as an admission requirement or not a mission requirement
would be if it was outside of my church.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
I mean that that would I would. I wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
I would probably make sure I complied with that, But still,
I mean, what fun is there when there are no alcohol, coolers.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Or chairs around?
Speaker 2 (25:01):
I mean, I'm not going to sit there and just
watch a ball drop with ten thousand people and not
have any of those accouterments with me. All right, So
we're going to flash back here, and I think we
could probably put this to bed. This is the one
story to tell you the truth. And I think we've
probably already basically adjudicated and we're over it. We get it,
(25:24):
and that is that the cognitive disabilities of Joe Biden
were covered up by the media. They were covered up
by all his friends, and it was, you know, they
talked about the big lie. I think political said the
big lie was about people eating dogs in Springfield, the
Haitians or cats or whatever that was.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
And we know, what if there are.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Five big lies ahead of that one, if that is
indeed even a lie, I don't even know, and I'm
not quite sure.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
I'm worried about it at this point.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
And I think it was pretty clear that o'biden was
cognitively disabled. And the fact of the matter is, as
a human being, it's hard to watch. Really, it's hard
to see that in other human beings, especially when it's
so easy to see, and yet other people are telling you,
(26:18):
well know, it's he's perfect, he's brilliant, he's zesty, he's
like right up there on top of on top of
the world.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
He's perfect.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
And it's kind of like, well, no, you know, I've
seen Man of La Mancha before, and we spent about
three years of listening to people who looked at a
shaving basin as a golden helmet. That's my favorite story
from the Broadway play Man of La Mancha, where Mani
la Mancha walks into the barber shop and you know,
(26:50):
he's delusional, but in a nice and loving way, and
you know he's just kind of like just out of
his mind and he thinks of himself as this.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
This leader or what have you.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
So he goes into the barber shop and he sees
the shaving basin and it was hadding over the golden
helmet immediately and like, well, well, no, it's a it's
just shaving basin.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
No, it's a golden helmet. And he starts to sing
this big song about.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Hey wears on his head even though it's a shaving basin,
but he pretends it's a golden helmet. And then all
of a sudden, after he declares it's a golden helmet
even though it's a shaving basin, everybody in the barbershop
is singing golden helmet, like they're with him on it
and like they're part of his delusion. And so we
watched that for at least three years of people just
(27:48):
kind of flat Earth or is just kind of like
pretending something was that wasn't and we saw the media
doing it and everybody else. It's like, I don't know,
there's something something about him, you know, and I know
they they even tried to. You remember when President Trump
almost slipped on a on a it was it was
(28:09):
like a ramp, and of course you know what these
ramps are like, you know, they're maybe you don't, but
nonetheless they get wet and you're you're gonna need But
they were kept on trying to invent this idea and
somehow President Trump was disabled or couldn't walk or look
his arm is dangling, remember that whole thing. And it
was like so fake, but they tried it, you know.
(28:32):
So anyway back to this Adam Shift story. So Adam
Shiff was going nuts on Robert Hurr when he and
when he showed this report after interviewing Joe Joe Biden
and this assessment of Joe Biden's being cognitively maybe a
(28:53):
little bit off, and Adam Shiff went crazy on him
in this story.
Speaker 8 (28:59):
The President did not recall there is nothing more common
you know this, I know this.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
There is nothing more common with.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
A witness of any age when asked about events that
are years old, to say I do not recall. Indeed,
they're instructed by their attorney to do that if they
have any question about it. You understood that you made
a choice that was a political choice. It was the
wrong choice, mister Chairman, I yield back.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Kellmen, yields back Keelman ferraras on it.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
So that was Adam shift then, and then a few
months after that, very hearing Shift called for Biden to
exit the race and said Biden needs to drop out,
serious concerns.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
He can't win.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
And now Joe Biden is kind of back in the fold,
even though he's on vacation again, back in the fold, saying,
you know, I probably could have won this thing. Well, certainly,
if you look at the facts and how things turned
out for Kamala Harris, chances are that he probably could
have done better than Kamala Harris did because if you
(30:06):
look at Kamala Harris's vote totals, she didn't flip one
county in the entirety of the United States during this election,
and it was quite possibly a huge mistake, I do
believe because of we see the voting totals from reaches
(30:27):
that we had not seen before voting Republican. I still
believe that President Trump would have won this election, but
I think at some point these folks are going to
have to admit that it might not have been a
great idea to replace him on the ticket, even though
I still think that it was a pursuit that was
(30:48):
not going to wind up positive for the Democrat Party.
Now it turns out Kamala Harris is like I think
I'll be back in twenty twenty eight, and it was
like and like sixty percent of Democrats who were polled
in a recent poll said they actually don't really like
that idea and they need something else. And that's probably
(31:09):
going to be one of the tasks of the Democrat
Party in the new year is trying to figure out
how they can reinvent themselves or reformulate themselves the way
the Republicans did as we headed into twenty twenty four
and as they did in twenty fifteen. You're going to
(31:30):
have to start shedding whatever it is that is shedding you.
And the problem now is that the Republican Party has
so much Democrat Party in it that I'm not quite
sure what the Democrat.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Party is going to do.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
I always like the idea of a vibrant political system.
Two parties, three parties. I don't know eight parties as
far as I'm concerned. So I don't want to see
anybody go away necessarily. But they've got a task at hand,
and that is for sure. And I hope you all
are thinking of ways that your life might change for
(32:09):
twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
I think it's going to be.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
A great year. I hope it is a great year
for all of you. And I have been privileged to
be sitting in and spending the mornings with you for
the last few days, filling in for the great Michael
del Journal. He will be back, and he's a great
guy and a great friend, and I really appreciate him
allowing me to take his place here temporarily on the
(32:33):
microphone on your morning show.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
with Michael ndheld Joano
Hi, it's me Michael. Your morning show can be heard
on great stations across the country like Talk Radio eleven
ninety and Dallas Fort Worth Freedom one oh four point
seven and Washington, d C and five point fifty k
FYI and Phoenix, Arizona. We'd love to be a part
of your morning routine or take us along on the
drive to work, but as we always say, better late
than never. Enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Well two three, starting your morning off right, A new
way of talk, a new way of understanding.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Because we're in this compiling. This is your morning show
with Michael O'Dell chorny you Good morning, Jamie. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (00:37):
I think one of the main issues I have with
celebrities speaking attim out about their political ideas is that,
you know, we tend to hold people up like for
what made them famous. You know, they may be an expert,
you know, football player or an actor, singer or whatever,
but it doesn't necessarily make them great at public policies
or or politics or anything like that. And so you know,
(00:59):
you think this person's famous, they must be in the
know when there's viewing out their opinion, it may not
be I think.
Speaker 5 (01:05):
The issue with celebrities voicing their opinion about politics, is
that we really like them as actors, and then when
they say something that they believe in that us as
conservatives completely do not believe in, it's just hard to
have respect for them.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Jamie Almen, this is Jamie from Saint Louis.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
I just wanted to say how awesome it is to
hear you in the morning again and from my family
to yours.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Happy New Year, and happy New Year to all of
you as well, and thank you Jamie, and thank you
those of you who chimed in on the iHeartRadio app
and that talk that feature on the microphone. Love hearing
from you and your own stories and your own views
about what is going on in the world. And this
(01:56):
is your morning show with Michael del Jornal. I'm Jamie Almen.
Really happy to be filling in for him, and he's
a great guy, and I'm honored to be here, and
so I appreciate all of you listening to the show
and spending your time with me and the show this
morning on this New Year's Eve.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
And to the points.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
About the celebrities, I think absolutely there's there's a certain
level of manipulation that goes into some celebrities when they
speak out, I think they're taking advantage of the fact
that people are listening to them, and so they're using
(02:37):
their celebrity status not really to promote well, I mean
pet causes. I mean, there are a lot, a lot
of about celeberties who speak out, you know, against breast
can you know, for more breast cancer research, things that
are you know, obviously altruistic. And there are others who
just simply use it either to feed their own egos
or to manipulate people and take advantage of the fact
(02:59):
that they might be well liked to whenever I can't
imagine what, and the market then ultimately decides. So personally
my views, I think Will Ferrell is really funny, Like
I really like him. I like his movies, I like
his bits on SNL. But when it came out that
(03:22):
he was doing whole, the whole you know, guy men
for real, men for Kamala or whatever that was. And
it's not that I hate Kamala Harris fory thing. I'm
just saying that it changed my opinion of him. I
look at him differently. Robert de Niro, Okay, I still
might watch The Godfather. Yeah, I mean I don't think
(03:43):
I ever could not watch that or Goodfellas, you know
what I mean. But still it changes your opinion and
your viewpoint. It makes things a little messier. It's it
changes your view of these visuals, and it makes the
experience of taking in their art a little bit different.
(04:07):
I mean, I think we're human beings. That's how we respond,
that's how we act. I mean, it's the way we are,
and so it does change your opinion about things like
there's a place in the Saint Louis area that is
a spice store. Okay, they sell spices like they are
(04:27):
a halfway decent spice place, but their website is so
horrifically anti Trump, anti conservative whatever that I'll never go there.
And I cook a lot, but I'd never go to
this place. I would never want to give them a
(04:48):
dime of my money. Conversely, however, even when you look
at people who are supporting your morning show or that
kind of thing, a lot of people who support the
these kinds of open and common sense platforms are rewarded handsomely.
And I will tell you that there are a lot
of people in our world who are benefiting greatly from
(05:13):
supporting our world and so that's that's the key there
is Sometimes positively it could really be a factor, especially
when businesses step up and support things they usually consumers
will reward them handsling your your views of certain stores
and certain outlets. I remember a bed Bath and Beyond.
(05:35):
Remember those guys, we're gonna stop selling my pillow brand.
And have you seen a bed bath and beyond anywhere
on the planet these days?
Speaker 1 (05:46):
No?
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Uh, people, people stop going there. You know. It was
the dumbest possible thing you could do.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
So sometimes as a marketing from a marketing standpoint, you
got to be really super careful about that. Andfortunately for
more of the liberal businesses, they tend to suffer more
than the conservatives ones do. I don't know why that is,
but loyalty is super important to a lot of people
(06:14):
in the common sense world, and that's how it goes
for people like Rob Reiner and Bette Niddler and those
kinds of people.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
You know Rob Reiner, really, I mean, he's not.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Selling anything, he's not doing Anything's mead, you know, I did.
I did enjoy him on all in the family that
I had to tell you that as meathead, he was
all right, right, Jeff, I mean he was pretty good,
you know, it was a great cast. Yeah, you know.
And then Sally Struthers. I think the last time I
(06:46):
saw her she was feeding the Hungary in Africa or something,
and oh god, that's cool.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
Sally Stutters is cool.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
And whatever you're doing, you know, your cameraman could have
him a sandwich.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
But that's okay, it's not a big deal.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
But still I think that, you know, it depends on
whether you're positive or negative. Also, so when all you
do is negativity, which is what Reiner and Bette Midler
and these other people do, then people tend to turn
out like Robert de Niro was borderline psycho about Donald Trump,
(07:22):
and I can't figure out. I can't figure out why.
It's like, dude, you should be like the happiest guy
on the planet. You've got great actor, great movies and
whatever else.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
He's my prerogative to tell you how to think of
what to say.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Yeah, you know, I mean, and and plus he The
worst part is that Robert de Niro tries to pull
off this kind of mobster act when he's hating on Trump.
It's like, dude, come on, we know, I mean, so
that's exploitation and manipulation, and I think most people, but
(07:57):
you know, the market decides in the end, whether it
be music or whatever, like for instance, Green Day. Like
I know a lot of people who love the band
Green Day. In fact, one day I was listening to
the radio and I hear a Green Day song. I
don't know, it's a Green Day song. I'm thinking, boy,
that's a good song. I'm going done it. But I
(08:17):
hated them. I know they didn't like them. I hates
a strong word, but you know, they're like super unpatriotic,
and I just would never consume their music, even as
good as they are. It's just like you know, Neil
Young on the other hand, all right, so you have
an anti George Bush song, that's all right. You know,
I still listen to your music because I grew up
with it and I'm good. But you notice a lot
(08:39):
of musicians, depending on where they are, kind of stay out.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Of the fray a little bit.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Springsteen, who I used to adore, love, have all of
his albums and everything else, I have a hard time
listening to him now just because of what I know
about him, and all it does is it reminds me
of what he stands for, which It isn't really shouldn't
(09:05):
be the thing that somebody who's important thinks they're branding
is important to remind you shouldn't listen to somebody and go, oh,
that's the Obama guy, you know, as opposed to oh,
that's Bruce Springsteen.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
Love is songwriting, He's awesome. What are your thoughts on this?
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Would love to hear him, and folks, I got news
for you the border situation and the border union. Now
they are joining forces with mister Holman and not taking
any guff for those who might resist.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
The deportation moves.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
It's your Morning show with Michael Del Chorno.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Is this Ferguson something Ferguson? Because this is good. I
love thunder Island. Good call, Yes, Sir, Jay Ferguson thunder.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
I man, oh right on, man, this takes me right
back in nineteen seventy seven or something like that. I
think I don't know what that is, but yeah, this
is your morning show with Michael Del Journo. Jamie Ollman
here along with Jeff and Redd and hey, by the way,
I have to tell you that it is possible to
(10:17):
get along with people.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Personally and beyond who don't agree with you.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
So I you know, I'm the youngest of six kids,
and I'm the only conservative in my family, and I
couldn't love my siblings more. And I think maybe it's
because we don't spend a lot of time, you know.
You know, you always had that person who emails you
(10:45):
links without a comment and and that becomes their comment.
And we don't really get into much political jousting. And
that's fine. And actually the most jousting I do politically
is with my ninety six year old old mother, who
I'm very very I'm very very close to her, so
she is my rock. I love her, and she and
(11:08):
I get together all the time and even almost lit
each other on fire on Christmas Eve when we were
making her oyster stew. And so we have a ton
of fun together and have Well. To tell you the truth,
and I hope this doesn't sound bad, but one of
our favorite things to do, we do it on Monday nights,
(11:29):
is we have a nice stiff vodka and go over
a scripture from the weekend. That's kind of that's the mix.
But anyway, my mother cannot stand Donald Trump. She despises
Donald Trump, and I always tease her. I'm thinking, well,
that's because probably because he reminds you of my father,
(11:52):
probably their divorce or whatever. Probably because my dad was
kind of that swinging madman sixties type of guy, And
that might be the reasons. Because she has kind of
some attitude about that whatever. But we laugh about it
and and none of that really spills over into any
of our.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
Conversations. Whatever.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Sometimes we'll talk about it and do that kind of thing,
and sometimes I've got to give you just Unfortunately she
watches the PBS News Hour sometimes when I'm over there
and i've got to I occasionally will be the other
side of the story for her.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Uh, And that's okay.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
You know, she doesn't mind that, and we don't get
into too many arguments, and she's she's just she's just great.
So it is possible, I guess, to transfer that to
celebrities who you have a level of intimacy with just
in terms of how you like their movies or their
songs or that kind of thing.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
But I think it's a little.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Harder with people who you really don't know or maybe
intimate with their with their art, but don't know them personally.
It's a little harder to separate that. And I think
sometimes it's even more fascinating to me. Like, for instance,
Jeff was playing Billy Joel on the way out the
last segment, and I was like, oh, like Billy Joel
(13:13):
just kind of does his thing, keeps his mouth shut.
Elton John will pair occasionally dabble in things like that,
but for the most part, there are a lot of
people out there who just kind of do their thing
and you never know exactly how they feel. So yeah,
I mean, sometimes it's just nice to just relax, and
sometimes people just don't make it very easy to do.
(13:38):
And one example would be, for instance, so there's this
pop Tarts Bowl that happened and it was I think
Miami and Iowa State and and so people were very
upset about the halftime show with the pop Tarts and
(14:01):
I'm thinking, you gotta be kidding me, really, and pop Tarts,
by the way, even the pop Tarts Bowl, I have
to admire these people who these companies who really brand
themselves excellently, and pop Tarts is a great brandy.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
They've stayed with it.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
They haven't changed too much, with the exception of putting,
you know, certain different kinds of frosting on them. But
the pop tart has remained the same forever, even though
it might be a little smaller whatever. And then not
only that, but they're surprisingly low in fat.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Just in case you were wondering.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
There's you know, hugely high in sugar, watch out and sodium.
But a couple of them are like four hundred calories.
So if you can afford that in the morning, not
a lot of fat in it. Calories aren't necessarily that
bad for you. It's the fat sometimes it'll get you.
But they're but they're still, you know, a staple. And
what's great is that you can eat them cold or
(15:00):
you can eat them toasted. And I have no by
the way, I have no investments or stock dividends and
pop tarts.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
I'm just saying so.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Anyway, people are really unhappy about the pop Tarts Bowl
halftime show where the pop Tarts all came out onto
the field, you know, and they look like pop tarts
right with oil, with the Nola swagger, and it doesn't
give a fudge if you're toasted or not. It's hot
(15:33):
fudge sun day.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
So with purple frosting and fruity filling. Too tasty, the.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Tame Yeah we got you, buddy, Yeah, so then we
have the situation where the pop tarts have the foil
on them and they come out marching and they start
they take the foil off and reveal themselves to be
the fudge whatever, or the strawberry or strawberry that. And
apparently there's outrage in certain conservative media circles that this
(16:07):
was blasphemous, it was a strip show and all this
kind of stuff. It's like, no, they were just pop
tart people taking the wrapper off. It's a football game,
it's a halftime show. It's okay, it's all good.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
This is Andy Hickson, formerly of Nashville and now living
in Detroit, Michigan. Thanks to iHeartRadio, My Morning show is
your morning show him Michael del Jorno, and your Morning
Show can be heard live as it's happening five to
(16:45):
eight am Central and six to nine Eastern. Non great
stations like six point twenty WJDX and Jackson, Mississippi or Akrons,
News Talk six point forty WHLO and AKRON, Ohio and
News Radio five seventy WDAK and Columbus, Georgia love to
be part of your morning routine. We're glad you're here.
Now enjoyed the podcast be with you in the mornings
and appreciate you so much. All right, So watch out
(17:09):
for this.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
There's going to be a happiness mega study on the way.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
So all these scientists are getting together.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
To create a new study on basically what the true
secret to happiness is. And the article that I'm looking
at is from the Telegraph and in the UK, and
the article actually points to a to a study that
(17:44):
was done at Harvard and this was the longest studies
of happiness that ever took place, and it's very revealing.
And this was a study that followed the lives of
two hundred sixty eight.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
Men who.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Entered college in the late nineteen thirties. So this is
an old study. And the key finding of the study
was that close relationships were far more important than money
or fame in ensuring people lived a happy life, and
(18:26):
it was important to people living a longer life as well.
And so it was really fascinating to see the study
that this article pointed out. I'm thinking, well, then, what's
the point of having another study at this point unless
you're trying you know, you know.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
You know, the scientific community.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
It's like you know, driving an electric car, Well, is
the key to happiness or whatever. I don't know, but
I'm always suspicious because this seemed like the most natural study.
This seemed like the most natural conclusion because it all
makes total sense about close relationships and how that affects
people's lives certain people. Obviously, there are some people who
(19:08):
don't really need it or require it or what have you.
But it seems to me that like, there's not very
much to improve upon there except maybe having the conclusion
that maybe being closer to God. I don't know. There's
a lot of ways that I could describe keys to happiness,
(19:29):
but when this Harvard study came out with the key
to happiness being close relationships, it made all the sense
in the world. So I'm trying to figure out what
the purpose of the Mega study is now, where apparently
like seventy thousand scientists from around the world are going
to be now doing a happiness study. And it seems
(19:52):
to me that I'm almost positive that their conclusion. I'm
not trying to be skeptical or sin here, but I'm
almost positive that their conclusion will probably not be that
simple little thing about close relationships. And sometimes it can
be a close relationship with God. Sometimes it can be
a close relationship with your spouse or your brother, or
(20:15):
your friend, or your mother or your father, whatever. Something
tells me that the study is going to have vastly
different conclusions, or it's going to have a bunch of conclusions.
Got well, these are the five keys to happiness. I'm
just gonna give you one. We're gonna be a five,
so we cover all the bases, and you know, one
(20:37):
of them might be eating pop stars.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
I'm all I'm saying is I feel like the study
has already been done and I can buy into that
conclusion almost automatically.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
I love it. So I don't know why they're doing
it again.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
All right, people, So as we enter into this brand
new year, one of the things that has not been
talked about a whole lot is President Trump might be
on his way to his fourth Supreme Court appointment. And
as you all know, they tried to run one of
them out. The Democrats did retire early so that Biden
(21:15):
would do whatever, but that wasn't gonna happen. And now
even CBS News is saying, yeah, he might just have
a fourth of that.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
To the court.
Speaker 6 (21:22):
I think that Donald Trump will probably get his fourth
nomination to the Supreme Court either this year or maybe
next year.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Because someone retires. Justice Samuly too.
Speaker 6 (21:32):
Justice Samuly, he was nominated took the bench in two
thousand and six after nearly two decades on the court.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Yeah, the Court saying, sam Alito, but you could have
a couple other ones retiring as well. There's a chance
that when all of a sudden done, by twenty twenty eight,
President Trump could appoint three more Supreme Court Justices. I mean,
it could happen that way, which is probably why so
(21:59):
many people on the left side of the spectrum were
probably a little upset but didn't really want to give
anybody any ideas. But that's a strong possibility. It might
not be just one. In fact, I'd be actually surprised
if sam Alito is the first one to get out.
(22:20):
That would be actually surprising to me. And a couple
other ones who I think could possibly leave also good news.
And this is making me happy as well, although I
do believe close relationships would be the key to happiness,
but so is endurance and strength. And we have the
Border Patrol Union guy now saying that, hey, we're all
(22:44):
on board with this. Tom Holme and Mass deportation thing,
and anybody who thinks otherwise is crazy.
Speaker 7 (22:51):
So what I say is take President Trump and his
incoming administration at their word.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
They're going to do the job of protecting Americans.
Speaker 7 (22:59):
And so it would be incumbent upon those sanctuary cities
and jurisdictions to understand one thing. Federal law supersedes state law.
Any municipality, anybody that's going to get in the way
is going to be dealt with. And so they need
to take this incoming administration at its word because they're
going to have some of the best legal minds working
within the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security.
Speaker 3 (23:22):
So it's not something that they're taking lightly. Yeah, that's
the chief of the Border Patrol.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
So these folks are ready to rock and we'll see
how it all unfolds.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
This is your morning show with Michael Deltno.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
And certainly appreciate you spending this last day before twenty
twenty five with your morning show and with me.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
And by the way, you know, I don't know whether
they're just purposely trying to keep people there's no okay,
time square and the ball drop thing. I think I've
always kind of wanted to maybe see it in person,
but then I see it on television, and I always
(24:08):
think I wouldn't want to be there, you know what
I mean. I like, it's more fun almost to watch
it on TV. It was certainly much more fun when
Dick Clark was around, but nonetheless it's more fun to
kind of just watch it on TV and do whatever.
And then the thing that basically ensure that I would
never go there is that no alcohol, no coolers, and
(24:31):
no chairs. It's like, who would go to anything that
would tell you can't do those three things? I would never.
It would never. The only time I would ever accept
that as an admission requirement or not a mission requirement
would be if it was outside of my church.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
I mean that that would I would. I wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
I would probably make sure I complied with that, But still,
I mean, what fun is there when there are no alcohol, coolers.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Or chairs around?
Speaker 2 (25:01):
I mean, I'm not going to sit there and just
watch a ball drop with ten thousand people and not
have any of those accouterments with me. All right, So
we're going to flash back here, and I think we
could probably put this to bed. This is the one
story to tell you the truth. And I think we've
probably already basically adjudicated and we're over it. We get it,
(25:24):
and that is that the cognitive disabilities of Joe Biden
were covered up by the media. They were covered up
by all his friends, and it was, you know, they
talked about the big lie. I think political said the
big lie was about people eating dogs in Springfield, the
Haitians or cats or whatever that was.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
And we know, what if there are.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Five big lies ahead of that one, if that is
indeed even a lie, I don't even know, and I'm
not quite sure.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
I'm worried about it at this point.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
And I think it was pretty clear that o'biden was
cognitively disabled. And the fact of the matter is, as
a human being, it's hard to watch. Really, it's hard
to see that in other human beings, especially when it's
so easy to see, and yet other people are telling you,
(26:18):
well know, it's he's perfect, he's brilliant, he's zesty, he's
like right up there on top of on top of
the world.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
He's perfect.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
And it's kind of like, well, no, you know, I've
seen Man of La Mancha before, and we spent about
three years of listening to people who looked at a
shaving basin as a golden helmet. That's my favorite story
from the Broadway play Man of La Mancha, where Mani
la Mancha walks into the barber shop and you know,
(26:50):
he's delusional, but in a nice and loving way, and
you know he's just kind of like just out of
his mind and he thinks of himself as this.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
This leader or what have you.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
So he goes into the barber shop and he sees
the shaving basin and it was hadding over the golden
helmet immediately and like, well, well, no, it's a it's
just shaving basin.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
No, it's a golden helmet. And he starts to sing
this big song about.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Hey wears on his head even though it's a shaving basin,
but he pretends it's a golden helmet. And then all
of a sudden, after he declares it's a golden helmet
even though it's a shaving basin, everybody in the barbershop
is singing golden helmet, like they're with him on it
and like they're part of his delusion. And so we
watched that for at least three years of people just
(27:48):
kind of flat Earth or is just kind of like
pretending something was that wasn't and we saw the media
doing it and everybody else. It's like, I don't know,
there's something something about him, you know, and I know
they they even tried to. You remember when President Trump
almost slipped on a on a it was it was
(28:09):
like a ramp, and of course you know what these
ramps are like, you know, they're maybe you don't, but
nonetheless they get wet and you're you're gonna need But
they were kept on trying to invent this idea and
somehow President Trump was disabled or couldn't walk or look
his arm is dangling, remember that whole thing. And it
was like so fake, but they tried it, you know.
(28:32):
So anyway back to this Adam Shift story. So Adam
Shiff was going nuts on Robert Hurr when he and
when he showed this report after interviewing Joe Joe Biden
and this assessment of Joe Biden's being cognitively maybe a
(28:53):
little bit off, and Adam Shiff went crazy on him
in this story.
Speaker 8 (28:59):
The President did not recall there is nothing more common
you know this, I know this.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
There is nothing more common with.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
A witness of any age when asked about events that
are years old, to say I do not recall. Indeed,
they're instructed by their attorney to do that if they
have any question about it. You understood that you made
a choice that was a political choice. It was the
wrong choice, mister Chairman, I yield back.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Kellmen, yields back Keelman ferraras on it.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
So that was Adam shift then, and then a few
months after that, very hearing Shift called for Biden to
exit the race and said Biden needs to drop out,
serious concerns.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
He can't win.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
And now Joe Biden is kind of back in the fold,
even though he's on vacation again, back in the fold, saying,
you know, I probably could have won this thing. Well, certainly,
if you look at the facts and how things turned
out for Kamala Harris, chances are that he probably could
have done better than Kamala Harris did because if you
(30:06):
look at Kamala Harris's vote totals, she didn't flip one
county in the entirety of the United States during this election,
and it was quite possibly a huge mistake, I do
believe because of we see the voting totals from reaches
(30:27):
that we had not seen before voting Republican. I still
believe that President Trump would have won this election, but
I think at some point these folks are going to
have to admit that it might not have been a
great idea to replace him on the ticket, even though
I still think that it was a pursuit that was
(30:48):
not going to wind up positive for the Democrat Party.
Now it turns out Kamala Harris is like I think
I'll be back in twenty twenty eight, and it was
like and like sixty percent of Democrats who were polled
in a recent poll said they actually don't really like
that idea and they need something else. And that's probably
(31:09):
going to be one of the tasks of the Democrat
Party in the new year is trying to figure out
how they can reinvent themselves or reformulate themselves the way
the Republicans did as we headed into twenty twenty four
and as they did in twenty fifteen. You're going to
(31:30):
have to start shedding whatever it is that is shedding you.
And the problem now is that the Republican Party has
so much Democrat Party in it that I'm not quite
sure what the Democrat.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Party is going to do.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
I always like the idea of a vibrant political system.
Two parties, three parties. I don't know eight parties as
far as I'm concerned. So I don't want to see
anybody go away necessarily. But they've got a task at hand,
and that is for sure. And I hope you all
are thinking of ways that your life might change for
(32:09):
twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
I think it's going to be.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
A great year. I hope it is a great year
for all of you. And I have been privileged to
be sitting in and spending the mornings with you for
the last few days, filling in for the great Michael
del Journal. He will be back, and he's a great
guy and a great friend, and I really appreciate him
allowing me to take his place here temporarily on the

microphone on your morning show.
