Speaker 1 (00:00):
We'll get to some other great stuff that is happening
in a lot of fun I got fun stuff to
talk about, but we need to start where we've been
talking most of the week, and that is very blatantly
the election and election security. There have already been some
seeds planted by the I hate saying this, but by Republicans.
(00:20):
It's true. It's you know, you can look it up
saying that Pennsylvania is the state that they fear that
there's going to be shenanigans. The most I've said on
this show that I am not going to assume any
shenanigans until we get through the results and we can
see what things are going on. We have also talked
at length about, you know, Pennsylvania and its voter rules.
You don't need an idea if you've already been registered there,
(00:41):
but there are different things that they utilize to try
to make sure people feel secure about the election. And
one of those things is you're hearing about a few
thousand things that are being investigated, and people I think
on the political right are saying, well, those are already ballots,
early voting ballots that ever being investigated. Well, what's being
(01:02):
investigated are voter registration applications which need to be done,
and those voter registration applications they found some duplicates in there.
Most of the ones that are not allowed our duplicates.
Most of the ones they've investigated are allowed because there
aren't duplicates. So what does all this mean? Right? Just
like when we talked about the state of Iowa mentioning
that they have a couple thousand people on the voter
(01:23):
rolls that voted in previous elections, not this one coming up,
but in previous elections that they've learned from the Department
of Transportation that when they got their driver's license said
that I was not a US citizen. They send that
information over to the Secretary of State's office and like, oh,
those people have actually registered to vote. We shouldn't have
allowed them to register to vote because they don't have
(01:44):
citizenship in this country. Again, it is a multitude of
pieces to what this is. But Pennsylvania is certainly not
the only state that has been going through voter rolls
and some investigations about some of the stuff that they
are doing. Enter Democratic Governor Josh Shapiro. Democratic Governor John
(02:04):
Shapiro is somebody that kind of got into the national
headlines and scene kind of in the wake of Joe
Biden saying he's no longer running for office or no
longer running for president this upcoming election. When that happened,
there was a lot of speculation as to who might
be able to slide in and take over, or who
(02:26):
may be able to be Kamala Harris's running mate if
they just decided to go that route. Now they went
that route, and it felt like Shapiro was the second
choice behind Tim Walls eventually, and I said, I think
he was too good at doing this political thing and
he would have completely outshined Kamala Harris on the campaign trail. Well,
(02:49):
Shapiro also had the whole Trump assassination attempt that you
got people to hear him maybe for the first time
we heard him. He is a battleground state and he's
a Democrats, so you know, him talking about things has
made the headlines as well. But he's also a very
decent and civil person. He was very complementary of a
lot of people that are not Democrats. You know, he's
(03:11):
not a person that holds Republicans in contempt, if you will,
in his personality, but he was not super happy when
Brett Bayer of Fox News found him on the streets
of Pennsylvania and asked him straight up, Jadvans is telling people,
you know that there's a lot of, you know, weird
stuff happening. Here's that interaction, and what Joshapiro says to
(03:31):
anybody who's worried about the election results in Pennsylvania. Jd
Vance put on acts, this is illegal.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
At Joshapiro should do something about these operatives in his
own party depriving people of the right to vote.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
If he doesn't, it's complicit and voted for that. That's
just more both from JD. Vance.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Remember Brett, our system is run by Republican and Democratic
clerks of elections in our sixty seven counties. It's overseen
by my Secretary of State Brett, who is a Republican.
I think everybody needs to take a deep breath and
understand that it is our fellow Pennsylvanians who we're running
these elections and we will again have a free and fair,
(04:09):
safe and secure election.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Okay, appreciate Tom's there's that. I think that's pretty obvious
what that meant. Anyway, I'll open the phones. Four roh
two five five, eight eleven ten. Is that explanation from
Joshapiro enough? The fact that there are Republicans in all
sixty seven counties helping run the election, plus the Secretary
of State, who is the overseer of the elections in
that in that state also happens to be a Republican.
(04:36):
That make you feel better about Pennsylvania specifically? Or is
anything else on your mind? Because I love to chat
with you on Fridays about anything that's on your mind.
We'll do an open phone line Friday right now. Call
us at four h two five five eight eleven ten.
Four h two five five eight eleven ten. News Radio
eleven ten, kfab Dan, Welcome to our show today. What
are you thinking about?
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Hey, Amory, this is Dan, and I'm thinking about these
voter applications in Pennsylvania. All these voter applications are tied
to one company out of Arizona and the reason why
they were flagged as potential fraud. And again the city
attorneys are already involved in this and have they They've
(05:17):
already determined that these are fraudulent applications.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Some of them are.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Plus yes, a significant significant I just watched the news
Art news story out of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
The problem they're running into is most of these applications
are dated back in June, and the theory behind it
is they're trying to push them through now because they're
the the voting commissions are inundated with voting and applications,
So that's why they waited until now to present. June
(05:55):
there was multiple, multiple and I'm talking hundreds that were
the same signatures, the same person, the same writing and
again the same company out of Arizona. And guess who
is a client of that company in Arizona. One Kamala
(06:16):
Harris and Tim Walls.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Interesting, Yeah, yeah, yeah, So I'm hearing you, man, and
I I've the Lancaster County is definitely the busiest of
the of the investigating. There's other counties that have, you know,
a voter applications that they are looking at as well,
but they're they're going through one by one and figuring
that out as well. So you know, I hear what
(06:39):
you're saying, and I get that, you know, we need
to be like on watch here, but I do trust
that the people who are running these elections in Pennsylvania
and those counties in that state. They're they're trying to
do the right thing because they've already flagged these things
ahead of time, you know what I'm saying, So you
know that it's it's good to hear that they've been
flagged and that these applic agents aren't going to be
(07:00):
utilized and they won't be able to vote or put
ballots in with those names, if that makes sense.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Yeah, it's amazing how it's always the same side.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
It will benefit Yeah, yes, yeah, you are right, there's
no doubt about that. And hopefully, you know, the the
Democrats even in those states, are going to be able
to uh, you know, answer for that if there is
any shenanigans in these states. I appreciate the call, Dan,
thanks for listening to us.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
Thanks.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Let's go to Brian on the phone line. Brian, welcome
to the show today. What's on your mind.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
I'm calling in about the most important thing, the money,
and how drill baby drill won't cut energy prices in half.
Previously I called in about how tax cuts to valuing
the dollar, enoss deportations, well fuel inflation adds to deficits. Well,
drill baby drilling into that ocean of gold beneath us
(08:01):
won't actually, well, we'll meet some resistance, okay. Or once
I mentioned how I didn't think there was an oil shortage,
there was actually an oil glut. So I want you
to look up oil glut cuts and we'll see that
actually the companies are cutting production because there's an oil glut.
You see. They like to keep production just barely keeping
(08:23):
up with demand. And they can't control demand, but it
can control production. You see that all the oil states
and OPEC and oil companies are shutting down. So we'll
appreciate having the productions removed from public lands and waters.
Those visas add to their evaluation. That doesn't mean they're
going to pump be pumped, all.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Right, Well, we'll keep we'll keep an eye on that. Brian,
appreciate you for sharing that with us today.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
Thanks.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Yeah, back to what Dan was saying about Pennsylvania. Just
got the most recent information that I could find about
Lancaster County, some of these other counties, and the Attorney
General of Pennsylvania, Michelle Henry, is trying to reassure in
a press release yesterday her office has worked with all
of the respective counties on the apparent attempts to submit
fraudulent ballots and investigate organizations that could be responsible, including
(09:13):
the one that Dan mentioned from Arizona. The quote was,
while we will not be divulging sensitive information about these investigations,
we want to clarify that the investigations regard voter registration forms,
not ballots. These attempts have been thwarted by the safeguards
in place in Pennsylvania. We are working every day with
our partners to ensure a fair, free and safe election.
(09:35):
The investigations are ongoing, and offenders who perpetrated acts of
fraud will be held accountable under law. So there she blows. Well,
not like if we're thinking about this from a standpoint, Yes,
it could be very close. Every single vote in Pennsylvania
could count. We're talking about twenty five hundred forms that
(09:56):
are being investigated, and there is a chunk of them
that have been deemed ineligible and they will not be
allowed to vote with those ballots. And again, as Dan mentioned,
it is public knowledge that they were able to track
these ballots. So yeah, that's what we're looking at here now.
As far as things are going for Michelle Henry, I
(10:20):
guess we're gonna hear as much as we can and
see if there are you know, differing reports from the
people of both political parties. Henry, the attorney general is
a Democrat as well as the governor is, but the
Secretary of State is a Republican, and the Secretary of
State is who the attorney general does the investigating of
these ballots, because you know that falls under the investigation's office,
(10:44):
but the secretary of State's office will have questions about that,
and then they're running the election. So I know that
sounds all very confusing. It's Friday, It's November first. Yeah,
Happy November, by the way. That kind of snuck up, honest,
isn't it. Yeah, here we go. Yeah, okay, what do
you think? What do you think today is like to celebrate?
If you will? I don't know.
Speaker 5 (11:04):
These are so random and like, I don't know, I mean,
who's really celebrating these random holidays?
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Right? Like, I'll give you three what are they for?
Like that's what I would.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
I want to know more about how these holidays come
to be and like what we're doing with them.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
I'll have I'll have three. I'll give you three hints. Ready, Okay,
first hint is fill the water buffalo. Okay, remember remember him.
The second hint is salads and third is impossible. But
all three of those things that you can talk about together.
And what do you think today is do do do? Do?
Do do do? Maybe those weren't great. I don't know.
(11:41):
It's it sounds like it's a food item. It's kind
of food. It's definitely food related. Yeah, what is this like? Uh,
Watercrest Day?
Speaker 5 (11:49):
So it's a water buffalo, it's a salad and impossible Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
World Vegan Day. Oh you know, like impossible meat. Oh
I see, okay, I said that has been too easy
and fill the water buffalo. I mean it's a lot
of vegans out there that you know, we're rooting for him,
even though I'm not a vegan and I was rooting
for him too. And then the other one. What was
the other hint? Oh salads. I feel like if you're
a vegan, you eat a lot of salads. Kind of
have to. Yeah. Yeah. So World Vegan Day Global Events
(12:18):
celebrated annually on the first November internationally, celebrating the benefits
of veganism for the world. The natural environment is set
up stalls, host potlucks, and plant memorial trees. It's been
a holiday since nineteen ninety four. Yeah, so also there's
a World Vegetarian Day, and this is my question, vegetarian.
Speaker 5 (12:39):
What's the difference between vegetarian and vegan. Yeah, vegan is
like completely exclusive. You know, if you're all the way vegan,
you don't use anything that you don't even use products
that have any any animals in them.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Right right, Yeah, like handbags and stuff like. You have
to be very careful about the Yeah, like you don't
even you don't know cheese, they don't like football because
those were originally made out of pigskins. Yeah, I don't know.
That's interesting. World Vegetarian Day, by the way, is October
the first, and yeah, it was established in nineteen seventy
seven by the North American Vegetarian Society. These are not
(13:14):
new Anybody saying that it was my generation that created
this stuff. It was not. So you know, talk to
your hippie friends from back in the sixties. Those are
the people that really wanted to promote this stuff. It's
an interesting conversation these days though, considering that you know farmers, right,
you want to support farming, especially when you live in
agricultural areas, and you have to understand how farming, you know,
(13:37):
makes the world go round for us economically, because you know, like,
I feel like if your conscience is telling you that
you don't want it, or you just don't like to
taste of meat or something, then there's plenty of stuff
that farmers make around here that you can eat, right,
like corn, corn, soybeans, kale, make kale run here, maybe
grow kale. Yeah, you can grow kale just about anywhere.
(13:58):
I think, Oh kale guy. Yeah, I see those people
with the kale shakes are really green. Yeah, the visual
puts me off. It's a superfood, that's for sure. Yeah,
But what else is the super food that I can
eat and actually like enjoy the taste?
Speaker 5 (14:13):
I would, you know what, homemade kale chips? Kale chips?
I bet you you would like that more than you think.
They're pretty good, nice, nicely salted, oven baked homemade kale chips.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
They're pretty good. I like, I like salted stuff. I
like salty snacks. So I feel like if that's kind
of the flavoring, I would be a little bit more
apt to, you know, give it a whirl. I don't know,
I'm just this scary scary as something so green. I
do like celery though, and broccoli green is good. Yeah,
But I don't I'm not necessarily like interested in being
(14:46):
a vegan. I just, you know, care about my well
being and like the way my body functions. Although I
have heard that it is quite an interesting experience to
kind of do a flush of your body and like
not eat meat for like two weeks or thirty days
and just like do kind of a vegetarian cleanse. I've
heard people say, I feel so different, it's crazy how
(15:06):
different my body feels, just like processing through that and
not having meat in your diet. I kind of am
curious about how that feels because I like working out
and stuff. And they're like, look, there, don't expect to
get a lot of muscle if you're you know, not
eating a lot of protein. You know, you'd have to
go supplemental with your protein intake, right, But you have
(15:27):
to be careful about that too, because what are they
making the protein powder out of?
Speaker 5 (15:30):
All?
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Right, if you're going to go totally vegue and if
that's the point, but if you're just doing it to
try to like balance your diet somehow, I don't know.
There's a part of me that kind of wants to
experience what that cleanse feels like. You want to do
one with me? You want we want to do a
I want to do a vegetarian cleanse with me for
thirty days. See how it works. See if we lose
some weight and trim some fat and feel different about
(15:53):
things in our lives. Yeah, I mean, and headbands, I work.
I would have to. I can't.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
I mean, obviously I can't continue it on Thanksgiving? Oh well,
not now, I mean, that would be a terrible time
to start.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
We're putting it off.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
Yeah, you know what, actually, right now, this little window
of time before Thanksgiving kind of feels like a perfect
time to just kind of like, you know, maybe do
no sugar or do know something right like, that's not
a bad idea. Maybe just hold off on the meat
for a couple of weeks, you know, something like that,
because you.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Know you're going to be getting your pill after that.
Speaker 5 (16:25):
Once Thanksgiving happens, then it's just basically like the way
of bad food decisions for six four weeks, wait until
New Year's and then you.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Feel so bad that you need a New Year's resolution
trying to fix that problem. Yeah, which nobody ever sticks with.
I mean who ever stuck with a new Year's resolution.
If you're doing it for the resolution by February, you're
done with that. Let's be honest. No, no, nobody's nobody's
sticking with their new Year's resolution after February when it's all, well,
I should probably lose you know, ten pounds or whatever.
I lost ten pounds this year, you know that. Yeah, Yeah, congrats. Yeah,
(16:59):
I didn't feel like much of anything. I just you know,
worked out a little harder. I eat terribly, dude, I
got I got stuff, Like, I'm kind of a thin guy,
but I got stuff to lose. I eat so bad. Like,
if anybody needed a dietician to tell them what to eat,
it's me. I'm awful.
Speaker 5 (17:14):
I need a hired dietitian just to like make me
mean make them make the food correct. Yes, if that
was the case, then I wouldn't even have to worry
about this. I just see whatever they made me.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Because you know, I'm also lazy, so I usually take
just the easiest possible option. That to me is you know,
the answer for a lot of my issues, and that's
not always the best. The easiest isn't always the best,
you know what I mean?
We'll get to some other great stuff that is happening
in a lot of fun I got fun stuff to

fraudulent ballots and investigate organizations that could be responsible, including
(09:13):
the one that Dan mentioned from Arizona. The quote was,
while we will not be divulging sensitive information about these investigations,
we want to clarify that the investigations regard voter registration forms,
not ballots. These attempts have been thwarted by the safeguards
in place in Pennsylvania. We are working every day with
our partners to ensure a fair, free and safe election.
(09:35):
The investigations are ongoing, and offenders who perpetrated acts of
fraud will be held accountable under law. So there she blows. Well,
not like if we're thinking about this from a standpoint, Yes,
it could be very close. Every single vote in Pennsylvania
could count. We're talking about twenty five hundred forms that
(09:56):
are being investigated, and there is a chunk of them
that have been deemed ineligible and they will not be
allowed to vote with those ballots. And again, as Dan mentioned,
it is public knowledge that they were able to track
these ballots. So yeah, that's what we're looking at here now.
As far as things are going for Michelle Henry, I
(10:20):
guess we're gonna hear as much as we can and
see if there are you know, differing reports from the
people of both political parties. Henry, the attorney general is
a Democrat as well as the governor is, but the
Secretary of State is a Republican, and the Secretary of
State is who the attorney general does the investigating of
these ballots, because you know that falls under the investigation's office,
(10:44):
but the secretary of State's office will have questions about that,
and then they're running the election. So I know that
sounds all very confusing. It's Friday, It's November first. Yeah,
Happy November, by the way. That kind of snuck up, honest,
isn't it. Yeah, here we go. Yeah, okay, what do
you think? What do you think today is like to celebrate?
If you will? I don't know.
Speaker 5 (11:04):
These are so random and like, I don't know, I mean,
who's really celebrating these random holidays?
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Right? Like, I'll give you three what are they for?
Like that's what I would.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
I want to know more about how these holidays come
to be and like what we're doing with them.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
I'll have I'll have three. I'll give you three hints. Ready, Okay,
first hint is fill the water buffalo. Okay, remember remember him.
The second hint is salads and third is impossible. But
all three of those things that you can talk about together.
And what do you think today is do do do? Do?
Do do do? Maybe those weren't great. I don't know.
(11:41):
It's it sounds like it's a food item. It's kind
of food. It's definitely food related. Yeah, what is this like? Uh,
Watercrest Day?
Speaker 5 (11:49):
So it's a water buffalo, it's a salad and impossible Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
World Vegan Day. Oh you know, like impossible meat. Oh
I see, okay, I said that has been too easy
and fill the water buffalo. I mean it's a lot
of vegans out there that you know, we're rooting for him,
even though I'm not a vegan and I was rooting
for him too. And then the other one. What was
the other hint? Oh salads. I feel like if you're
a vegan, you eat a lot of salads. Kind of
have to. Yeah. Yeah. So World Vegan Day Global Events
(12:18):
celebrated annually on the first November internationally, celebrating the benefits
of veganism for the world. The natural environment is set
up stalls, host potlucks, and plant memorial trees. It's been
a holiday since nineteen ninety four. Yeah, so also there's
a World Vegetarian Day, and this is my question, vegetarian.
Speaker 5 (12:39):
What's the difference between vegetarian and vegan. Yeah, vegan is
like completely exclusive. You know, if you're all the way vegan,
you don't use anything that you don't even use products
that have any any animals in them.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Right right, Yeah, like handbags and stuff like. You have
to be very careful about the Yeah, like you don't
even you don't know cheese, they don't like football because
those were originally made out of pigskins. Yeah, I don't know.
That's interesting. World Vegetarian Day, by the way, is October
the first, and yeah, it was established in nineteen seventy
seven by the North American Vegetarian Society. These are not
(13:14):
new Anybody saying that it was my generation that created
this stuff. It was not. So you know, talk to
your hippie friends from back in the sixties. Those are
the people that really wanted to promote this stuff. It's
an interesting conversation these days though, considering that you know farmers, right,
you want to support farming, especially when you live in
agricultural areas, and you have to understand how farming, you know,
(13:37):
makes the world go round for us economically, because you know, like,
I feel like if your conscience is telling you that
you don't want it, or you just don't like to
taste of meat or something, then there's plenty of stuff
that farmers make around here that you can eat, right,
like corn, corn, soybeans, kale, make kale run here, maybe
grow kale. Yeah, you can grow kale just about anywhere.
(13:58):
I think, Oh kale guy. Yeah, I see those people
with the kale shakes are really green. Yeah, the visual
puts me off. It's a superfood, that's for sure. Yeah,
But what else is the super food that I can
eat and actually like enjoy the taste?
Speaker 5 (14:13):
I would, you know what, homemade kale chips? Kale chips?
I bet you you would like that more than you think.
They're pretty good, nice, nicely salted, oven baked homemade kale chips.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
They're pretty good. I like, I like salted stuff. I
like salty snacks. So I feel like if that's kind
of the flavoring, I would be a little bit more
apt to, you know, give it a whirl. I don't know,
I'm just this scary scary as something so green. I
do like celery though, and broccoli green is good. Yeah,
But I don't I'm not necessarily like interested in being
(14:46):
a vegan. I just, you know, care about my well
being and like the way my body functions. Although I
have heard that it is quite an interesting experience to
kind of do a flush of your body and like
not eat meat for like two weeks or thirty days
and just like do kind of a vegetarian cleanse. I've
heard people say, I feel so different, it's crazy how
(15:06):
different my body feels, just like processing through that and
not having meat in your diet. I kind of am
curious about how that feels because I like working out
and stuff. And they're like, look, there, don't expect to
get a lot of muscle if you're you know, not
eating a lot of protein. You know, you'd have to
go supplemental with your protein intake, right, But you have
(15:27):
to be careful about that too, because what are they
making the protein powder out of?
Speaker 5 (15:30):
All?
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Right, if you're going to go totally vegue and if
that's the point, but if you're just doing it to
try to like balance your diet somehow, I don't know.
There's a part of me that kind of wants to
experience what that cleanse feels like. You want to do
one with me? You want we want to do a
I want to do a vegetarian cleanse with me for
thirty days. See how it works. See if we lose
some weight and trim some fat and feel different about
(15:53):
things in our lives. Yeah, I mean, and headbands, I work.
I would have to. I can't.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
I mean, obviously I can't continue it on Thanksgiving? Oh well,
not now, I mean, that would be a terrible time
to start.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
We're putting it off.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
Yeah, you know what, actually, right now, this little window
of time before Thanksgiving kind of feels like a perfect
time to just kind of like, you know, maybe do
no sugar or do know something right like, that's not
a bad idea. Maybe just hold off on the meat
for a couple of weeks, you know, something like that,
because you.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Know you're going to be getting your pill after that.
Speaker 5 (16:25):
Once Thanksgiving happens, then it's just basically like the way
of bad food decisions for six four weeks, wait until
New Year's and then you.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Feel so bad that you need a New Year's resolution
trying to fix that problem. Yeah, which nobody ever sticks with.
I mean who ever stuck with a new Year's resolution.
If you're doing it for the resolution by February, you're
done with that. Let's be honest. No, no, nobody's nobody's
sticking with their new Year's resolution after February when it's all, well,
I should probably lose you know, ten pounds or whatever.
I lost ten pounds this year, you know that. Yeah, Yeah, congrats. Yeah,
(16:59):
I didn't feel like much of anything. I just you know,
worked out a little harder. I eat terribly, dude, I
got I got stuff, Like, I'm kind of a thin guy,
but I got stuff to lose. I eat so bad. Like,
if anybody needed a dietician to tell them what to eat,
it's me. I'm awful.
Speaker 5 (17:14):
I need a hired dietitian just to like make me
mean make them make the food correct. Yes, if that
was the case, then I wouldn't even have to worry
about this. I just see whatever they made me.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Because you know, I'm also lazy, so I usually take
just the easiest possible option. That to me is you know,
the answer for a lot of my issues, and that's
not always the best. The easiest isn't always the best,
you know what I mean?
