Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, guess what, Matt what. Michelle Obama says she is
not attending the inauguration. A statement from their office of
Barack and Michelle Obama said the former President Barack Obama
is confirmed to attend the sixtieth inaugural ceremonies. Former First
Lady Michelle Obama will not attend the upcoming inauguration that
comes on the heels of her kind of being conspicuously
absent from the Jimmy Carter funeral where Donald Trump was
(00:23):
sitting next to Barack Obama and sitting immediately next to
him was George W. Bush and Laura Bush and Bill
and Hillary Clinton were right there. And why didn't she
make it? She's in Hawaii. There's no explanation. You know,
I wail to leave Hawaii either, big deal, little deal.
She's a former first lady. Hillary was there. Now, Bill
(00:43):
and Hillary don't live in Hawaii. George and Laura were there.
They don't live in Hawaii. We're missing something here, you know.
Al Gore and Mike Pince's wives were there. Is there something?
Is there something to this? And we don't know why? Well,
their kids are adults. Now, it's not like she's got
a babysit the kids. Have we ruled out gout?
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Oh? Shut up? Yeah, be serious? Oh be serious? Oh
he wants me to be serious. Yeah, come on, gout man, boy, gout,
you and your gout. Just because you have gout doesn't
mean everybody else has gout.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
I do.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
I keep bringing up gout today for you at home,
A little behind the curtain. Look here, I have this
weird pain in my foot, so I just keep thinking
about it. So gout's on my mind.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Maybe you tore your fashi attendant.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I've got gout on my mind too much. Organ meat,
is what web MD says.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
You know, I don't know they do. You know they
have a lot of luaus out there and in Hawaii.
So see, I brought it back. We're making newsworthy. Could
be gout.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Maybe it's not.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Probably not. It's probably not gout, right. Do you admit
that it's gout? That's the good question. If it is,
do you admit it for the record, I'm sorry I
couldn't make it. I had gout. Gout's a funny thing
to have if you have it. I'm sorry it's funny.
It's not funny. It's probably very painful. I've heard that
it is. I don't have it, but I've heard bad
things me too. If you have.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
I've seen the commercials where they make this you know,
yellow substance in your foot and make it look like
there's just like this extra stuff just in your foot
putting pressure on your bones and tendons and just sounds painful.
It's like a like a chronic bruising that's just like
in there ouch. Anyway, back to the point of the conversation,
First Lady former First Lady Michelle Obama not going to
(02:22):
be there? Is this a big deal?
Speaker 3 (02:24):
I just want to know what's going on.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Well, I don't think we're ever going to find out.
Bub You don't think we'll ever find out Barry is
gonna be there. Barry was paling around with Trump. Would
that have happened if Michelle was there? Now, I know
that there's a bunch of conspiracy guys on the Republican
side that thought she was going to run for president
or something like that, which again I was like, she
has said it over and over again and she didn't.
(02:47):
And she was pretty conspicuously absent as well on the
campaign trail, right, Like you would think that you know,
she would have been like the person that would have
been going around with Kamala Harris if they really wanted
to help get her elected. Michelle just was nowhere to
be found.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Maybe the best question here that may have already been asked,
because I think I was out that day. Maybe you
already talked about it. But if she was there for
Jimmy Carter's funeral, what they had that buddy buddy moment?
Or do you think Brock would have kept it stoic
and frustrated and you know what I mean, like just
kept staring straight ahead because he's got you know what
I mean, like you know what I'm saying here, right?
(03:23):
What you're just with the boys, right, you know you
can like, you know, we're joking around. Yeah, but maybe
if Michelle's there, he's like, yeah, I got to keep
the mean mug on.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
You know.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Well, it depends on what side of Trump he sits on, right,
because that's I always find it to be quite awkward. Right.
Let's see, like you and a significant other and me
and a significant other go to like a show or
a ballgame or something, right, how do you sit next
to each other?
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Right? That's part of the awkwardness. Well, that really depends
on the dynamic of the friendship. Like if like if
it's your closest friendship, like you and me, you and
me would be sitting in the middle two seats with
our significant others on either side of us. That's true,
But what if it was not that that makes it
even more awkward, Like what if you're sandwich between the
two significant others that I'm on the end, right, Who's
to say Michelle doesn't sit next to Donald for whatever reason,
(04:11):
and then Barack has Michelle in between the two, then
obviously they wouldn't even have the ability to talk.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
I'm more curious if George W. Bush was sitting next
to Barrack, Is said of Laura Bush was sitting next
to Barrock, would that have been a three man conversation?
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Maybe George felt a little left out, maybe made a
painting about it later painted out as frustration. I'm guessing
he did not paint. Be my guess. If anything, I
think he may have. You know, I don't want to
say what I was about to say, just it was
not going to be funny, it was was.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
It going to be inappropriate?
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Yeah? I inappropriate? It might be a bit of a
strong word, but it was not a good taste, so
I stopped myself before I got there.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Oh, it's probably for the best. It probably was for
the best.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
All I'm saying is, you know, uh, there's certain dynamics
that exist that we're never going to be privy to
because it's a completely different dynamic if Michell would have
been there. But I'm just wondering, why is Michelle not
going to this incredibly important thing if you really are
trying to serve your country for whatever reason. And again,
I'm not putting any judgment here. Maybe she's ill, maybe
she's got some family thing going on, maybe there's something
(05:13):
larger here. Heck, what's her name, Princess Kate? I mean,
people are like, where is Kate? What's up with Kate?
Why is Kate not happening? Right, she comes out and
she says I've been diagnosed with cancer, and everybody who
was questioning where she was really felt like a real
jerk after that. Right, It's just like man probably shouldn't
have been as aggressive and has said all these things
like why are you hiding Kate kind of thing and
basically forcing her on her on a different timeline to
(05:36):
make that announcement. Now, I'm not insinuating that anything like
that is happening with Michelle Obama, but I'm just saying
it is quite interesting because usually both as long as
they're still together and as long as we've been alive,
that's not been a problem. Hillary Clinton, even after all
the stuff that went down with Bill, still stayed with him. So,
you know, like when you're the first lady, that means something,
and when the president shows up somewhere and it is
(05:57):
something this large, you're going to be there. Fully anticipate
that Hillary Clinton is going to be there in attendance,
you know, I fully anticipate seeing you know, plenty of
other people that you might be like, well, why is
Democrat X in attendance? This is an inauguration.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
It seems like it's got to be something significant eleven
days in between, and there's no like political tie ins,
right like one was a funeral for.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Theoretically, theoretically, this is just something that you would think
that any former first Lady and former president who are
still alive and together, these are two things that you
would just assume that they would be a part of. Yeah,
so what is this about. If this is about politics.
Then we're missing the point here, and I'm disappointed in
Michelle Obama. I have reason to feel like that may
(06:44):
not be all that's going on here. Yeah, because that
still would not explain why she wasn't at Jimmy Carter's
funeral if it was political, if anything, she would have
been under any circumstance front and center to celebrate the
politics of a former Democratic president, right, But she wasn't
there either, So I don't know, and I don't have
answers for you. If we find answers, we'll let you know.
I just found that to be kind of interesting. Four
(07:05):
seventeen is the time when we come back. Got a
couple other things, including how high do you put your
flag on Monday? That's apparently a question that it kind
of depends on where you live. We'll explain that coming
up as well on News Radio eleven ten kfab. Emrie
Songa will be back right after he finishes his tea
and scrumpets on Loons Radio eleven ten kfab. I just
(07:28):
have so much on my mind, this is crazy. I'm
looking at some stuff on social media here, and it
is quite interesting what the Greater Good thinks about certain things.
But here's what I wanted to talk about is flags.
You have a flag, you have a flag at home?
I do not, Okay, So, and I know a lot
(07:48):
of people are just like, hey, you go down to Texas,
there's a ton of flags you have. People say that, right,
And it just kind of depends, I think, you know,
on where you live and how important having a flag is.
And I know, are you familiar with like the flag's
half staff, full staff? Kind of like what that looks like.
And if you have multiple flags, the American flag has
to be higher or on top, you know, only like Texas.
(08:12):
The state of Texas has like it within its constitution
the ability for it to like have the flag at
the same level as the United States, but every other
flag when it's like flying, has to be at least
a little below the United States flag. Are you familiar
with those?
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Okay, so what in h And I guess it just
kind of depends on like where you're at on this
because people are shocker here, ladies and gentlemen. We have
politicized flags now. Now obviously there's been political implications for
like the Confederate flag and things of that nature, but
I'm talking about the American flag and whether it should
(08:46):
be at half masted or full masted on Monday during
the inauguration. Now, the reason why it would be at
half mass is because we're still in the thirty day
window of mourning former President Jimmy Carter, and it is
always usually those thirty days uninterrupted that you would have
the flag at half mast for that purpose. They'd done
(09:08):
it with George H. W. Bush, with Reagan, with any
other former president who passes away, Gerald Ford, we celebrate
their life in the flag being at half staff for
a thirty day period. That is just standard. But a
couple of different things have popped up. And if you're
listening to me in Iowa, you're listening to me in America,
(09:30):
if you're listening to me across the great country, and
you might be in Arkansas for some reason. I don't
have all the information in front of me, but I
am going to tell you that Texas started this by
saying that they are going to for the for Monday
on inauguration Day, the flags are ordered to be flown
(09:52):
at full mast, and there are rules that it is
not like within the Constitution. You have to follow what's
going on going on the States have the rights to
kind of go up against what you know is suggested
by the United States. However, that was echoed by Mike Johnson,
Speaker of the House, who says on the Capitol Grounds,
which he is able to be in charge of here,
(10:14):
he says that they will fly at full mast or
full staff on Monday as well at the Capitol. Now,
I am sure over the next twenty four to forty
eight hours you may see a cavalcade of different places
that are going to be explaining this, and we will
do the best that we can to let you know
because this is quite interesting. And yeah, the idea is
(10:37):
that as soon as we get to next Tuesday, they
will go back to half mass until January twenty eighth,
so they'll be a half mass for another week after that.
But it's just a weird thing where they want to
celebrate America and people want to celebrate America. You put
the flag at full staff to celebrate America, and then
you bring it back down to half mass because we're
still in the thirty day window of Jimmy Carter. It's
(10:57):
very it's very confusing. You're confusing their pal So, yeah,
I'll let you know what Iowa Nebraska say and what
those words are, because there is I know, we want
to follow the rules more so than anything else. We'll
do the best that we can to make sure that
you have as much information as you can so you
(11:19):
don't feel like you're left out in the cold.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
You just can't get away from this stuff, right, It's
always something that you just have to say on your toes. Yeah,
what else can we make political? And what else can
we make complicated?
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Oh yeah, that's that's really another question for twenty eight.
We'll try to uncomplicate things that may be complicated. Next
on news radio eleven ten kfab relaxed, Amrie.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Solo will be right back.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
I've seen if I've finished talking on the radio eleventh Okay, Abeah,
what's going on? I double it up on it. I'm
telling you Orlando, No, West Palm Beach. But like it's
just that's not far from Naples. Those are like right
next to each other. What's going on here?
Speaker 3 (11:57):
They're doubling up.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
They keep doubling up. But I don't like it. Unless
it was us, then please keep doubling it up. You know,
Yeah that might be hypocritical, but yeah, double your money,
double your fun. Okay, guess what we were talking about flags?
And I don't know if I was clear enough on this.
Nebraska and Iowa have already said fly your flags at
half or at full full staff, full masted, full staff,
(12:21):
whatever you want to say. Each state will have to
make that announcement. And I don't know how political all
that stuff is to some people, but it seems like
every Republican governor seems to be jumping on board here
and saying fly your flags at full staff on Monday.
Which the reason they're saying this is we're still in
(12:42):
the thirty day window for the death of Jimmy Carter,
where flags are supposed to be at half staff for
thirty days and they will go back to being at
half staff for another week on Tuesday. But because it's
Inauguration Day on Monday, the entire state of Nebraska and Iowa,
both governors, have said in official statements that this is
what we're going to do, and what you got to
(13:03):
do is just fly your flag at full staff celebrate
America on that day. So there you go, boom bingo,
and again it'll be interesting and fascinating to see of
states with democratic leadership have this same announcement. They just
decide not to And how does that if you were
Let's pretend like you're living in Colorado, Democratic led state
(13:24):
and they don't make an announcement, you're still in the
thirty day window and there's no announcement or appendage to
adjust for innauguration day. But you are a Republican voter
and you want to celebrate the inauguration of Donald Trump,
and there what's his name, Jared something their governor? What's
his name, Colorado governor?
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Okay, I have no idea when you say Jared.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
It doesn't help me any well to to say he
doesn't say anything about flags at being full.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Staff, typical Jared move, by the way.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
And so what happens I mean, is it do you
get in trouble if you want to fly your flag,
I get full staff and the entire state is still
supposed to be at half staff. Like it's kind of
a pretty important symbol, symbolic situation, right to be following
what the government says? Or is it?
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Man? You know?
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Yeah, what a bummer that. It's just so obnoxious. It's like, right,
Jared Polis, by the ways, his name. So the blue
states are gonna say keep it. The Red States are
gonna say put it up, you know, and it's just like,
isn't that stupid? Yeah, isn't that so stupid?
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (14:28):
But again, i'd rather the states make this decision, the
federal government telling us what to do. If we're going
to be completely honest here, So let me ask you
GBT real quick. Can you get in trouble and you
get in trouble for flying your flag at half staff
when it's mandated to be at half staff? I said
(14:50):
that wrong, but I typed it right. I promise the
answer is generally no, You're not gonna get in legal trouble.
Government properties would be the one that you have to
do this properly. There's no legal penalty for flying your
flag differently on private property, So I guess just do
whatever the heck you want. What that says, those are
guidelines and not necessarily things that are of a very
(15:11):
specific of nature. There you go. Yeah, So, anyway, we
got some talkback on flags. Talkback is on the app.
You go to the free iHeartRadio app. You you know
what you do at that point, you go to eleven
to ten kfab listen to US Live. You can put
presets on the homepage of the app now, which is
really nice and handy, so you can just press a
(15:32):
button and get to you know, what you're trying to
listen to. And when you're listening to our station, it'll
pop up with the microphone button. All you have to
do is press that button and you can give us
up to thirty seconds of your best audio. It drops
into our inbox here and we're able to listen to
that and we curate and play, you know, the ones
that we want to play. Here we go. Sounds like
we got to talk back about flags.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
They're mat Yeah, Hey, Emery, I got an idea for
the flag mass debate. Why don't we just go three
quarter mass. That way, it's up a little for Trump's inauguration,
but still down a little to respect the fallen Jim Carter, hmmm.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
You want to try to make things more complicated. There
we go. Now we're now we have three levels. And
then now if we set a precedent that you're like, hey,
that's you know, when we got one good thing and
one bad thing that you know, the flags need to
be respectful of. I mean, we got to be in
the middle somehow, So that opens the can of worms
as to what is like a three like full staff
(16:32):
as usual, But what is the kind of thing that
would bring it down to three quarter staff? And what
would be the kind of event that would bring it
down to half staff? And do we go down to
a single quarter staff?
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Hmm?
Speaker 2 (16:44):
What would bring that upon? You'd have to have two
negatives and one positive?
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Yeah, no, no, no, because.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
That would bring it back to half if you had
another negative, one negative, you need three. One negative gets
you to half is half, but one negative and one positive,
we're saying goes up to three quarters.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
In his theory here.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
You need three negative and one positive to make a
quarter staff. But this whole conversation keep going.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
We have like a like I feel like one hundred
bad things could happen and half staff is still where
they'd be. You know, you're never going to get so
many bad things that it has like an infinite lowering
rate to where you just wouldn't fly the flag. That's
not how it works. So I guess my theory would
be it'd have to be quite a very strange situation
(17:35):
for a flag to be a quarter staff, And I'm
guessing just a malfunction of the poll or the flag
itself would be the only thing. And in that situation,
most people who are experts of this sort of thing
would just tell you, don't fly the flag if you
can't get it up to at least half masked.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
I'd love it if this kept going and stipulate this
could open the door. You want to talk about a
Pandora's box, This could open the door.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
Would it's seven eighths staff?
Speaker 3 (17:59):
Right?
Speaker 1 (17:59):
For for something? Seven seven sixteenth the Huskers miss out
on making a bowl game seven eighth staff, seven eighths Yeah,
at seven eighths to the top.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
The guy guys out there like spending all their morning
just trying to calculate.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
It just right.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
I mean, there are some people that are like, this
is no laughing matter. Oh, come on, like, have some
fun we're talking about. I'm not trying to be disrespectful.
I'm just saying, you know, it's just it's kind of
interesting that we are politicizing we fly this thing that
represents our country, and we're politicizing how high we fly
it essentially. You know, I'll be interested. I'll be interested
(18:40):
to see what the blue states that have blue leadership,
like democratic governors, in what they do, like this Tim
Walls is, he's sitting up there in the Minnesota and
he's just like itching and chomping at the bit to
not do anything with the flag. I'm interested in that.
Have you seen his social media? By the way, No,
I hate to do this. How's he hanging in there? Well,
(19:00):
you know, I'm sure it's not and I'm sure it's
I'm sure it's not entirely like one hundred percent. I
don't know. I don't know how i'd handle such a
humiliating public defeat. But I'm like, I'm trying to do
my best of you know, being as fair as possible.
(19:21):
And I noticed on some of his postings, you know,
he's posting, you know, stuff like recently the stuff on California.
But he doesn't post that often these days, you know,
just kind of depends on whatever, like one time. You know,
he's just doing typical governor stuff. Minnesota's farmers and producers
(19:42):
consistently meet local, regional, and global supply chain needs. We're
working with USDA to support producers throughout the supply chain
and build strength in our rural economies. He also made
a video talking about how Minnesota's thrilled to host the
twenty twenty six World Junior Hockey Championship, which you know
State of Hockey, right, a lot of a lot of
Minnesota gold and go for football stuff. When they were
(20:03):
in the Duke's Mayo Bowl, had plenty of stuff there.
But it's just you know, regular stuff, a Viking stuff,
New Year's Resolution stuff. I mean, it's just all over
the place. Like, I hope he's okay. I hope things
are going okay for him. I don't know, he's just
he's an interesting cat. But I just like that's one
thing that I always am thinking about, is just is
(20:24):
you know, when you take such a public defeat there, like,
is there a way that you're trying to uh, are
you trying in some way to get back at the
people who are against you? And is this like a
way that he can like subtly just be like, hey,
if I see a single flag at full staff, you're
going down. Even though that's not the kind of guy
he is, he probably wouldn't even notice. But you know,
(20:45):
I just find it fascinating, right, the little games that
you can play. You know, it's like Nancy ripping up
the State of the Union copyright, right, you know, it's
just like, oh, come on, come on, now, what are
we doing. That's a that's just my opinion. It's one
man's opinion. Let's go ahead and we'll have some fun.
Let's give away some f's when we come back here
(21:06):
on news radio eleven ten kfab relax, Emrie Sommer will
be right back as soon as I finished talking on
news radio eleven ten k.
Speaker 5 (21:16):
Fap.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
You bully, you bull it, you blew it. Have you
ever done something really stupid?
Speaker 4 (21:27):
Yeah? Me neither, but these people did, and that means
it's time for you. Get an f All right, we're back.
Get four fifty one. Matt Case, What do you got
for me today? I got toughing, pretty silly for you today.
This is something that just kind of hit the inner
webs that I side as a lady. There's a French lady, right,
So it's a lady and she's in France, and she
(21:50):
reportedly divorced her millionaire husband.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
After she wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait,
let me back up. She divorced her millionaire husband and
then she was scammed by Brad Pitt. Huh, Brad Pitt lookalike?
That is oh okay, And the pictures are all you
need to see for proof. We have the pictures of
(22:16):
what the scammers use. So basically, a scammer pretended to
be Brad Pitt, pretended to be in a hospital bed,
did some like halfway decent and then some pretty shoddy.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Uh what's the app that they use?
Speaker 5 (22:29):
There?
Speaker 2 (22:30):
The photoshop shop, pretty shoddy photoshop and a couple of
these photos that are honestly genuinely hilarious. One of them
is absolutely hilarious. And she gave this scammer eight hundred
and fifty thousand euros over time.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
What yeah, you're giving?
Speaker 3 (22:46):
I mean this?
Speaker 1 (22:48):
What are we doing here?
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:50):
I'm sorry because I know that there are some elderly
people especially that get they get had by some of
these things. Just this guy is allegedly a freaking bazillionaire,
you know who he is, and you're being tricked by
somebody like he's talking to you personally. You didn't think
(23:10):
to yourself, maybe that was kind of odd.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
Reading articles about this, The articles are saying that mental
health is an issue involved in this whole case.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
I don't know if where is anyone else in this
person's life.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Well, her husband was around then, she divorced him, so
she could go after bake Brad Pitt.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Okay, and that tells me, all just go ahead and
give it. I'm I'm fuming for this woman, I really am.
I mean, well, who gets the f I mean they
all kind of do, don't they.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Yeah, you know what, I'd like the team f right
scammers not get off. Okay with all the youre getting
all the scams lately, that the United States Parcel Service.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
Oh, I've got a package for you, but it's got
the wrong zip code.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Always trying to get people with that guy stuff like, yeah,
play off all the scams, okay, you creeps eucretans.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
But also stop falling for scams. Yeah, come on, Yeah,
what are we doing? Yeah, don't fall for it. Don't
do it. There you get en f there you go,
get it nicely done. In a Chicago area grocery store,
there was a very strange finding inside of the refrigerated
shelf in the produce section.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Oh boy.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
According to Cook County Coyote Projects Stan Gertz, he says, well,
this was an interesting one, but we had to pull
a coyote out of the refrigerated shelf in this grocery store.
He says, that's an odd location. They do this sometimes
though sometimes they just make a mistake. They were able
(24:42):
to finally get this guy out. You know, coyotes they
try to avoid human contact, and this guy just kind
of took refuge in this very strange spot. They were
able to remove him. He did not get any injuries,
but man, it's a very strange thing to see a
coyote get pulled from a refrigerated shelf. Imagine going shopping
and your trying to pick out a head of lettuce,
and all of a sudden you see a coyote just
(25:02):
sitting in there.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
Not great. Yeah, that'd be on the shortlist of things
you never thought you'd.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
See now, But I'm going to give the f to
the coyotes, just like, hey, bub it's pretty clear you're
not outside and you're around a lot of people. This
is the opposite thing that you want. So coyote gets
an f
Hey, guess what, Matt what. Michelle Obama says she is
not attending the inauguration. A statement from their office of
Barack and Michelle Obama said the former President Barack Obama
is confirmed to attend the sixtieth inaugural ceremonies. Former First
Lady Michelle Obama will not attend the upcoming inauguration that
comes on the heels of her kind of being conspicuously
absent from the Jimmy Carter funeral where Donald Trump was
(00:23):
sitting next to Barack Obama and sitting immediately next to
him was George W. Bush and Laura Bush and Bill
and Hillary Clinton were right there. And why didn't she
make it? She's in Hawaii. There's no explanation. You know,
I wail to leave Hawaii either, big deal, little deal.
She's a former first lady. Hillary was there. Now, Bill
(00:43):
and Hillary don't live in Hawaii. George and Laura were there.
They don't live in Hawaii. We're missing something here, you know.
Al Gore and Mike Pince's wives were there. Is there something?
Is there something to this? And we don't know why? Well,
their kids are adults. Now, it's not like she's got
a babysit the kids. Have we ruled out gout?
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Oh? Shut up? Yeah, be serious? Oh be serious? Oh
he wants me to be serious. Yeah, come on, gout man, boy, gout,
you and your gout. Just because you have gout doesn't
mean everybody else has gout.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
I do.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
I keep bringing up gout today for you at home,
A little behind the curtain. Look here, I have this
weird pain in my foot, so I just keep thinking
about it. So gout's on my mind.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Maybe you tore your fashi attendant.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I've got gout on my mind too much. Organ meat,
is what web MD says.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
You know, I don't know they do. You know they
have a lot of luaus out there and in Hawaii.
So see, I brought it back. We're making newsworthy. Could
be gout.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Maybe it's not.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Probably not. It's probably not gout, right. Do you admit
that it's gout? That's the good question. If it is,
do you admit it for the record, I'm sorry I
couldn't make it. I had gout. Gout's a funny thing
to have if you have it. I'm sorry it's funny.
It's not funny. It's probably very painful. I've heard that
it is. I don't have it, but I've heard bad
things me too. If you have.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
I've seen the commercials where they make this you know,
yellow substance in your foot and make it look like
there's just like this extra stuff just in your foot
putting pressure on your bones and tendons and just sounds painful.
It's like a like a chronic bruising that's just like
in there ouch. Anyway, back to the point of the conversation,
First Lady former First Lady Michelle Obama not going to
(02:22):
be there? Is this a big deal?
Speaker 3 (02:24):
I just want to know what's going on.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Well, I don't think we're ever going to find out.
Bub You don't think we'll ever find out Barry is
gonna be there. Barry was paling around with Trump. Would
that have happened if Michelle was there? Now, I know
that there's a bunch of conspiracy guys on the Republican
side that thought she was going to run for president
or something like that, which again I was like, she
has said it over and over again and she didn't.
(02:47):
And she was pretty conspicuously absent as well on the
campaign trail, right, Like you would think that you know,
she would have been like the person that would have
been going around with Kamala Harris if they really wanted
to help get her elected. Michelle just was nowhere to
be found.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Maybe the best question here that may have already been asked,
because I think I was out that day. Maybe you
already talked about it. But if she was there for
Jimmy Carter's funeral, what they had that buddy buddy moment?
Or do you think Brock would have kept it stoic
and frustrated and you know what I mean, like just
kept staring straight ahead because he's got you know what
I mean, like you know what I'm saying here, right?
(03:23):
What you're just with the boys, right, you know you
can like, you know, we're joking around. Yeah, but maybe
if Michelle's there, he's like, yeah, I got to keep
the mean mug on.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
You know.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Well, it depends on what side of Trump he sits on, right,
because that's I always find it to be quite awkward. Right.
Let's see, like you and a significant other and me
and a significant other go to like a show or
a ballgame or something, right, how do you sit next
to each other?
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Right? That's part of the awkwardness. Well, that really depends
on the dynamic of the friendship. Like if like if
it's your closest friendship, like you and me, you and
me would be sitting in the middle two seats with
our significant others on either side of us. That's true,
But what if it was not that that makes it
even more awkward, Like what if you're sandwich between the
two significant others that I'm on the end, right, Who's
to say Michelle doesn't sit next to Donald for whatever reason,
(04:11):
and then Barack has Michelle in between the two, then
obviously they wouldn't even have the ability to talk.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
I'm more curious if George W. Bush was sitting next
to Barrack, Is said of Laura Bush was sitting next
to Barrock, would that have been a three man conversation?
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Maybe George felt a little left out, maybe made a
painting about it later painted out as frustration. I'm guessing
he did not paint. Be my guess. If anything, I
think he may have. You know, I don't want to
say what I was about to say, just it was
not going to be funny, it was was.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
It going to be inappropriate?
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Yeah? I inappropriate? It might be a bit of a
strong word, but it was not a good taste, so
I stopped myself before I got there.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Oh, it's probably for the best. It probably was for
the best.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
All I'm saying is, you know, uh, there's certain dynamics
that exist that we're never going to be privy to
because it's a completely different dynamic if Michell would have
been there. But I'm just wondering, why is Michelle not
going to this incredibly important thing if you really are
trying to serve your country for whatever reason. And again,
I'm not putting any judgment here. Maybe she's ill, maybe
she's got some family thing going on, maybe there's something
(05:13):
larger here. Heck, what's her name, Princess Kate? I mean,
people are like, where is Kate? What's up with Kate?
Why is Kate not happening? Right, she comes out and
she says I've been diagnosed with cancer, and everybody who
was questioning where she was really felt like a real
jerk after that. Right, It's just like man probably shouldn't
have been as aggressive and has said all these things
like why are you hiding Kate kind of thing and
basically forcing her on her on a different timeline to
(05:36):
make that announcement. Now, I'm not insinuating that anything like
that is happening with Michelle Obama, but I'm just saying
it is quite interesting because usually both as long as
they're still together and as long as we've been alive,
that's not been a problem. Hillary Clinton, even after all
the stuff that went down with Bill, still stayed with him. So,
you know, like when you're the first lady, that means something,
and when the president shows up somewhere and it is
(05:57):
something this large, you're going to be there. Fully anticipate
that Hillary Clinton is going to be there in attendance,
you know, I fully anticipate seeing you know, plenty of
other people that you might be like, well, why is
Democrat X in attendance? This is an inauguration.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
It seems like it's got to be something significant eleven
days in between, and there's no like political tie ins,
right like one was a funeral for.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Theoretically, theoretically, this is just something that you would think
that any former first Lady and former president who are
still alive and together, these are two things that you
would just assume that they would be a part of. Yeah,
so what is this about. If this is about politics.
Then we're missing the point here, and I'm disappointed in
Michelle Obama. I have reason to feel like that may
(06:44):
not be all that's going on here. Yeah, because that
still would not explain why she wasn't at Jimmy Carter's
funeral if it was political, if anything, she would have
been under any circumstance front and center to celebrate the
politics of a former Democratic president, right, But she wasn't
there either, So I don't know, and I don't have
answers for you. If we find answers, we'll let you know.
I just found that to be kind of interesting. Four
(07:05):
seventeen is the time when we come back. Got a
couple other things, including how high do you put your
flag on Monday? That's apparently a question that it kind
of depends on where you live. We'll explain that coming
up as well on News Radio eleven ten kfab. Emrie
Songa will be back right after he finishes his tea
and scrumpets on Loons Radio eleven ten kfab. I just
(07:28):
have so much on my mind, this is crazy. I'm
looking at some stuff on social media here, and it
is quite interesting what the Greater Good thinks about certain things.
But here's what I wanted to talk about is flags.
You have a flag, you have a flag at home?
I do not, Okay, So, and I know a lot
(07:48):
of people are just like, hey, you go down to Texas,
there's a ton of flags you have. People say that, right,
And it just kind of depends, I think, you know,
on where you live and how important having a flag is.
And I know, are you familiar with like the flag's
half staff, full staff? Kind of like what that looks like.
And if you have multiple flags, the American flag has
to be higher or on top, you know, only like Texas.
(08:12):
The state of Texas has like it within its constitution
the ability for it to like have the flag at
the same level as the United States, but every other
flag when it's like flying, has to be at least
a little below the United States flag. Are you familiar
with those?
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Okay, so what in h And I guess it just
kind of depends on like where you're at on this
because people are shocker here, ladies and gentlemen. We have
politicized flags now. Now obviously there's been political implications for
like the Confederate flag and things of that nature, but
I'm talking about the American flag and whether it should
(08:46):
be at half masted or full masted on Monday during
the inauguration. Now, the reason why it would be at
half mass is because we're still in the thirty day
window of mourning former President Jimmy Carter, and it is
always usually those thirty days uninterrupted that you would have
the flag at half mast for that purpose. They'd done
(09:08):
it with George H. W. Bush, with Reagan, with any
other former president who passes away, Gerald Ford, we celebrate
their life in the flag being at half staff for
a thirty day period. That is just standard. But a
couple of different things have popped up. And if you're
listening to me in Iowa, you're listening to me in America,
(09:30):
if you're listening to me across the great country, and
you might be in Arkansas for some reason. I don't
have all the information in front of me, but I
am going to tell you that Texas started this by
saying that they are going to for the for Monday
on inauguration Day, the flags are ordered to be flown
(09:52):
at full mast, and there are rules that it is
not like within the Constitution. You have to follow what's
going on going on the States have the rights to
kind of go up against what you know is suggested
by the United States. However, that was echoed by Mike Johnson,
Speaker of the House, who says on the Capitol Grounds,
which he is able to be in charge of here,
(10:14):
he says that they will fly at full mast or
full staff on Monday as well at the Capitol. Now,
I am sure over the next twenty four to forty
eight hours you may see a cavalcade of different places
that are going to be explaining this, and we will
do the best that we can to let you know
because this is quite interesting. And yeah, the idea is
(10:37):
that as soon as we get to next Tuesday, they
will go back to half mass until January twenty eighth,
so they'll be a half mass for another week after that.
But it's just a weird thing where they want to
celebrate America and people want to celebrate America. You put
the flag at full staff to celebrate America, and then
you bring it back down to half mass because we're
still in the thirty day window of Jimmy Carter. It's
(10:57):
very it's very confusing. You're confusing their pal So, yeah,
I'll let you know what Iowa Nebraska say and what
those words are, because there is I know, we want
to follow the rules more so than anything else. We'll
do the best that we can to make sure that
you have as much information as you can so you
(11:19):
don't feel like you're left out in the cold.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
You just can't get away from this stuff, right, It's
always something that you just have to say on your toes. Yeah,
what else can we make political? And what else can
we make complicated?
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Oh yeah, that's that's really another question for twenty eight.
We'll try to uncomplicate things that may be complicated. Next
on news radio eleven ten kfab relaxed, Amrie.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Solo will be right back.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
I've seen if I've finished talking on the radio eleventh Okay, Abeah,
what's going on? I double it up on it. I'm
telling you Orlando, No, West Palm Beach. But like it's
just that's not far from Naples. Those are like right
next to each other. What's going on here?
Speaker 3 (11:57):
They're doubling up.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
They keep doubling up. But I don't like it. Unless
it was us, then please keep doubling it up. You know,
Yeah that might be hypocritical, but yeah, double your money,
double your fun. Okay, guess what we were talking about flags?
And I don't know if I was clear enough on this.
Nebraska and Iowa have already said fly your flags at
half or at full full staff, full masted, full staff,
(12:21):
whatever you want to say. Each state will have to
make that announcement. And I don't know how political all
that stuff is to some people, but it seems like
every Republican governor seems to be jumping on board here
and saying fly your flags at full staff on Monday.
Which the reason they're saying this is we're still in
(12:42):
the thirty day window for the death of Jimmy Carter,
where flags are supposed to be at half staff for
thirty days and they will go back to being at
half staff for another week on Tuesday. But because it's
Inauguration Day on Monday, the entire state of Nebraska and Iowa,
both governors, have said in official statements that this is
what we're going to do, and what you got to
(13:03):
do is just fly your flag at full staff celebrate
America on that day. So there you go, boom bingo,
and again it'll be interesting and fascinating to see of
states with democratic leadership have this same announcement. They just
decide not to And how does that if you were
Let's pretend like you're living in Colorado, Democratic led state
(13:24):
and they don't make an announcement, you're still in the
thirty day window and there's no announcement or appendage to
adjust for innauguration day. But you are a Republican voter
and you want to celebrate the inauguration of Donald Trump,
and there what's his name, Jared something their governor? What's
his name, Colorado governor?
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Okay, I have no idea when you say Jared.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
It doesn't help me any well to to say he
doesn't say anything about flags at being full.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Staff, typical Jared move, by the way.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
And so what happens I mean, is it do you
get in trouble if you want to fly your flag,
I get full staff and the entire state is still
supposed to be at half staff. Like it's kind of
a pretty important symbol, symbolic situation, right to be following
what the government says? Or is it?
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Man? You know?
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Yeah, what a bummer that. It's just so obnoxious. It's like, right,
Jared Polis, by the ways, his name. So the blue
states are gonna say keep it. The Red States are
gonna say put it up, you know, and it's just like,
isn't that stupid? Yeah, isn't that so stupid?
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (14:28):
But again, i'd rather the states make this decision, the
federal government telling us what to do. If we're going
to be completely honest here, So let me ask you
GBT real quick. Can you get in trouble and you
get in trouble for flying your flag at half staff
when it's mandated to be at half staff? I said
(14:50):
that wrong, but I typed it right. I promise the
answer is generally no, You're not gonna get in legal trouble.
Government properties would be the one that you have to
do this properly. There's no legal penalty for flying your
flag differently on private property, So I guess just do
whatever the heck you want. What that says, those are
guidelines and not necessarily things that are of a very
(15:11):
specific of nature. There you go. Yeah, So, anyway, we
got some talkback on flags. Talkback is on the app.
You go to the free iHeartRadio app. You you know
what you do at that point, you go to eleven
to ten kfab listen to US Live. You can put
presets on the homepage of the app now, which is
really nice and handy, so you can just press a
(15:32):
button and get to you know, what you're trying to
listen to. And when you're listening to our station, it'll
pop up with the microphone button. All you have to
do is press that button and you can give us
up to thirty seconds of your best audio. It drops
into our inbox here and we're able to listen to
that and we curate and play, you know, the ones
that we want to play. Here we go. Sounds like
we got to talk back about flags.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
They're mat Yeah, Hey, Emery, I got an idea for
the flag mass debate. Why don't we just go three
quarter mass. That way, it's up a little for Trump's inauguration,
but still down a little to respect the fallen Jim Carter, hmmm.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
You want to try to make things more complicated. There
we go. Now we're now we have three levels. And
then now if we set a precedent that you're like, hey,
that's you know, when we got one good thing and
one bad thing that you know, the flags need to
be respectful of. I mean, we got to be in
the middle somehow, So that opens the can of worms
as to what is like a three like full staff
(16:32):
as usual, But what is the kind of thing that
would bring it down to three quarter staff? And what
would be the kind of event that would bring it
down to half staff? And do we go down to
a single quarter staff?
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Hmm?
Speaker 2 (16:44):
What would bring that upon? You'd have to have two
negatives and one positive?
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Yeah, no, no, no, because.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
That would bring it back to half if you had
another negative, one negative, you need three. One negative gets
you to half is half, but one negative and one positive,
we're saying goes up to three quarters.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
In his theory here.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
You need three negative and one positive to make a
quarter staff. But this whole conversation keep going.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
We have like a like I feel like one hundred
bad things could happen and half staff is still where
they'd be. You know, you're never going to get so
many bad things that it has like an infinite lowering
rate to where you just wouldn't fly the flag. That's
not how it works. So I guess my theory would
be it'd have to be quite a very strange situation
(17:35):
for a flag to be a quarter staff, And I'm
guessing just a malfunction of the poll or the flag
itself would be the only thing. And in that situation,
most people who are experts of this sort of thing
would just tell you, don't fly the flag if you
can't get it up to at least half masked.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
I'd love it if this kept going and stipulate this
could open the door. You want to talk about a
Pandora's box, This could open the door.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
Would it's seven eighths staff?
Speaker 3 (17:59):
Right?
Speaker 1 (17:59):
For for something? Seven seven sixteenth the Huskers miss out
on making a bowl game seven eighth staff, seven eighths Yeah,
at seven eighths to the top.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
The guy guys out there like spending all their morning
just trying to calculate.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
It just right.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
I mean, there are some people that are like, this
is no laughing matter. Oh, come on, like, have some
fun we're talking about. I'm not trying to be disrespectful.
I'm just saying, you know, it's just it's kind of
interesting that we are politicizing we fly this thing that
represents our country, and we're politicizing how high we fly
it essentially. You know, I'll be interested. I'll be interested
(18:40):
to see what the blue states that have blue leadership,
like democratic governors, in what they do, like this Tim
Walls is, he's sitting up there in the Minnesota and
he's just like itching and chomping at the bit to
not do anything with the flag. I'm interested in that.
Have you seen his social media? By the way, No,
I hate to do this. How's he hanging in there? Well,
(19:00):
you know, I'm sure it's not and I'm sure it's
I'm sure it's not entirely like one hundred percent. I
don't know. I don't know how i'd handle such a
humiliating public defeat. But I'm like, I'm trying to do
my best of you know, being as fair as possible.
(19:21):
And I noticed on some of his postings, you know,
he's posting, you know, stuff like recently the stuff on California.
But he doesn't post that often these days, you know,
just kind of depends on whatever, like one time. You know,
he's just doing typical governor stuff. Minnesota's farmers and producers
(19:42):
consistently meet local, regional, and global supply chain needs. We're
working with USDA to support producers throughout the supply chain
and build strength in our rural economies. He also made
a video talking about how Minnesota's thrilled to host the
twenty twenty six World Junior Hockey Championship, which you know
State of Hockey, right, a lot of a lot of
Minnesota gold and go for football stuff. When they were
(20:03):
in the Duke's Mayo Bowl, had plenty of stuff there.
But it's just you know, regular stuff, a Viking stuff,
New Year's Resolution stuff. I mean, it's just all over
the place. Like, I hope he's okay. I hope things
are going okay for him. I don't know, he's just
he's an interesting cat. But I just like that's one
thing that I always am thinking about, is just is
(20:24):
you know, when you take such a public defeat there, like,
is there a way that you're trying to uh, are
you trying in some way to get back at the
people who are against you? And is this like a
way that he can like subtly just be like, hey,
if I see a single flag at full staff, you're
going down. Even though that's not the kind of guy
he is, he probably wouldn't even notice. But you know,
(20:45):
I just find it fascinating, right, the little games that
you can play. You know, it's like Nancy ripping up
the State of the Union copyright, right, you know, it's
just like, oh, come on, come on, now, what are
we doing. That's a that's just my opinion. It's one
man's opinion. Let's go ahead and we'll have some fun.
Let's give away some f's when we come back here
(21:06):
on news radio eleven ten kfab relax, Emrie Sommer will
be right back as soon as I finished talking on
news radio eleven ten k.
Speaker 5 (21:16):
Fap.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
You bully, you bull it, you blew it. Have you
ever done something really stupid?
Speaker 4 (21:27):
Yeah? Me neither, but these people did, and that means
it's time for you. Get an f All right, we're back.
Get four fifty one. Matt Case, What do you got
for me today? I got toughing, pretty silly for you today.
This is something that just kind of hit the inner
webs that I side as a lady. There's a French lady, right,
So it's a lady and she's in France, and she
(21:50):
reportedly divorced her millionaire husband.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
After she wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait,
let me back up. She divorced her millionaire husband and
then she was scammed by Brad Pitt. Huh, Brad Pitt lookalike?
That is oh okay, And the pictures are all you
need to see for proof. We have the pictures of
(22:16):
what the scammers use. So basically, a scammer pretended to
be Brad Pitt, pretended to be in a hospital bed,
did some like halfway decent and then some pretty shoddy.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Uh what's the app that they use?

I'm sorry because I know that there are some elderly
people especially that get they get had by some of
these things. Just this guy is allegedly a freaking bazillionaire,
you know who he is, and you're being tricked by
somebody like he's talking to you personally. You didn't think
