Speaker 1 (00:00):
Camel population benefited from its branding within Hump Day.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Do the camels need help? I would think that they're
pretty resilient. Can't can't you know what this life? Just
figure it out for themselves? Like does everybody have to
be a victim? Cry for the camels? Look, those guys
can wander out in the desert for months and be fine. Hey,
that's not what I'm even talking about. Pal easy with
your victim mentality.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
I'm saying, if they like in a situation where, uh,
you know, we're in a capitalist society. Hawk Tua girls,
you know, makes a vulgar quote and you know it
goes viral on social media. She capitalizes and makes money
on that. Right, Has anybody done anything for the camels?
Is the camel's a profile raised in society based on
(00:44):
the fact that we associate them with one of the
seven days of the week, Like, is there another day
that we like associate animals with? Seems like a big
enough deal that camels would be like a bunch of
people's favorite animals. Some people probably do enjoy camels. I
like I like I like seeing the big fuzzy ones.
I have the two humps, I'm under the impression. Those
aren't necessarily the same species as the camel that is
(01:06):
in that Guico commercial that goes Mike, Mike, guess what
day it is?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
So yeah, I don't know. There you go, the camels
with the most humps. Yeah, the back tree and camel,
that's the one. They're hairy, right, they can survive cold weather.
They have two big humps. Yeah, they're pretty awkward to
watch walk around, but you know that's what it is. Anyway,
big black eyed peas fans I've heard, don't they have
(01:32):
that song called my Humps? Oh? Yeah, yeah, isn't that
It's about those camels, is what I've heard.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
I'd rather it was indeed. Yeah, jeez, it's a good point.
What happened to those guys? No, I don't really care, don't.
I don't need an answer that question. A couple of
things I wanted to start with this. First of all,
get that keyword in the keyword, this hour's money. Apparently Omaha.
Our friends over at cat got a couple of winners
last night. Congrats to them. But I want to winter.
(02:01):
I want to winn this afternoon. So you do your part,
I'll do mine. I'll do a radio show and try
to entertain and inform you for the next four hours
long as my friend Matt case, I would love to
know that we have people entering this contest at kfa
B dot com. Put the keyword in. We'll give you
one every hour. This hour's keyword is money. M O
N E. Y. Just make sure the answer the phone
if they call you, because if it's a restricted number,
(02:21):
they're probably there to tell you just want a thousand
dollars in our nationwide keyword contest. So good luck to you.
I would love to get a winner today. Now Russia, Russia.
Why is Russia important? Well, not a rhetorical question, real question. Yeah,
well they invaded Ukraine.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Yah, there you go. And before that they've always just
kind of yeah, Russia, they just always out there. They're
a player. Drinking too much vodka the causing problem.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
I had a foreign exchange student that was in my
class when I was like a junior, I was like seventeen.
He was probably seventeen or eighteen, and I mean he
talked about like vodka like it was juice. Now, you
got to keep in mind that you can be eighteen
and legalize dranking back, you know, in Russia and the Motherland.
But yeah, his name was Vlad. He's a cool guy.
(03:04):
We talked about soccer a lot.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Anyway. They're always a player, They're always hanging around. They
got a lot of land, right.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
They make a big they make a big impact in
a lot of different things. Without Russia, you couldn't make
the Soviet Union, and without the Soviet Union you don't
get the Miracle on Ice.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Pretty important. Yeah, I guess every good guy needs a
bad guy.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
I mean, without the Soviet Union and mister Gorbashev, we
would not have Rocky four, which is good. I have
in Drago what we do. Without Rocky four, you need
Russia in the Soviet Union for that to exist.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
But if there was no Rocky four, then there would
have been no Rocky five. It's a good point. Is
it better to have loved and to have lost than
to never have loved at all? That's the real question, man.
I tend to think it's better to have loved. And
he rectified a lot of that by just making Rocky Balboa,
you know, fifteen years later, right, didn't really didn't really
talk about Rocky five a whole lot in that sequel,
(03:59):
and then the Creed move happened, and those are good.
So you know, I kind of tend to think we
needed Rocky four, even if it led to Rocky five, which,
by the way, if you haven't seen Rocky five, do
not watch it, like colossal waste of time. I don't
know what he was thinking.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
I like, like Sylvester Stalone says it was a horrible movie.
It's got like zero percent of rotten tomatoes.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Rocky five let.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Me just double check that before I get too far
away from it, thirty two percent. But he says it
was a zero out of ten movie. But I'm sure
it means something to him, right, because Tommy Morrison, great
boxer of the time, flipped into stardom. He was the
boxer and Rocky five that you know he wanted to
train and then move on. Great great name, Tommy gunn Right,
just a fantastic name. And then his real life son,
(04:42):
Sage still One, who you know tragically passed away at
a young age, was his son in the movie.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
I'm just reading something sad about Tommy Morrison. Yeah, it
didn't end well for him either. And you know he
passed away at the Med Center here in Omaha. Did
he he did? Wow?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
I didn't know that. Yeah, I didn't I know that
at all. Wow, that's crazy. But yeah, things didn't go
super well for Tommy Morrison. He was a there's documentaries
you can go find him. But yeah, beyond that though, yeah,
I don't know, not a great movie. Rocky five, I
don't get Oh yeah, I'm here because we're talking about
Rocky four and it's connection to Russia and just me
(05:18):
saying that Russia is important, right, whether you want to
make fun of him or do you want to just
say whatever, Are you want to condemn them or whatever?
Russia is a player. Well Donald Trump took him a
couple of days, but he's on the Russia train. I
want to know what he said. Are you right for this? Okay,
it's on truth Social so there's no audio, but I'm
gonna do my best.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Are you ready? Here we go. I'm not looking to
hurt Russia. I love the Russian people and always had
a very good relationship with President Putin. And this despite
the radical lefts Russia Russia Russia hoax, we must never
forget that Russia helped us win the Second World War,
losing almost sixty million lives in the process of that.
(06:00):
Being said, I'm going to do to Russia, whose economy
is failing and President putin a very big favor, settle
now and stop this ridiculous war. It's only going to
get worse. That part was in all caps if we
don't make a deal and soon, I have no other
choice but to put high levels of taxes, tariffs, and
(06:24):
sanctions on anything being sold by Russia to the United
States and various other participating countries. Let's get this war,
which never would have started if I were president overweighth.
We can do it the easy way or the hard way,
and the easy way is always better. It's time to
make a deal. No more lives should be lost.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
There were exclamation points at the end of that one
end quote. Donald Trump tells Russia. Look that fifteen billion
dollars of exports they sit into the United States every year,
bing bang boom. We are going to tax them or
terrif them.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
You're gonna make no money after a while unless you
stop this stinking war, which, by the way, we're not
going on. Three years, bro, Do you know that, like
next month is three years? Did you know that? Are
do you now? February twenty twenty two.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Three years that's been going on a long time. It's
still going on. So I don't know anyway Donald Trump
is spoken. We'll see if Frush he gets the memo
that's on Donald Trump's truth social account, and I suppose,
you know, we'll find out on a variety of levels, right.
Vlad seemed to be pretty happy that he was that
(07:33):
Trump was elected president of the United States. Volodimir Zelensky
seemed to be pretty happy that Donald Trump was elected
President of the United States. You'd think that that kind
of mutual happiness could lead to a deal. Time will
Tell two sixteen more on the way stick Around News
Radio eleven ten kfab and.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
You talked about the inauguration stuff over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Yeah, but what happened specifically yesterday?
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Oh, he did the whole the Starlin thing. Was it
starlink Stargate Stargate nice, Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
Yet who we talked about?
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Who was there? And uh, it was three CEOs. Sam Altman,
the open Ai CEO open Ai operates Chat GBT by
the way, Oracle CEO or CTO, Larry Ellison Bank you
those three were there.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
That's my favorite Mario Kark.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Character, Masa Yoshi's son, the CEO of SoftBank. I think
you're playing the wrong game. I was only half listening.
Now I just realized. Now you So, this giant stargate
idea is going to start with a one hundred billion
dollar total investment by these three companies, and they are
(08:46):
going to be growing the artificial intelligence infrastructure in the US,
starting in Texas, and then they're going to by the
end of Donald Trump's term, plan to spend five hundred
billion dollars into Stargate and try to, you know, make
AI blow up. Who is uh, who would not be
interested in this blowing up ai? AI being like these
(09:10):
three companies working together to do this.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Oh well, Elon's not involved. You got it. You got it, buddy.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Open Ai post it on their x account announcing the
Stargate Project. The Stargate Project is a new company which
intends to invest five hundred billion dollars over the next
four years to building new AI infrastructure for open Ai
in the United States. We will be to begin deploying
one hundred billion dollars immediately. Blah blah blah. Okay, right,
(09:44):
you'll never ever ever guess who immediately replied to them
or not immediately, but replied to them underneath their underneath
their post, Oh, Elon Musk, we got to remember open
Ai and GROC are like going back and forth at
each other. Right, So this is going on right, and
(10:04):
they have a long post. They talk about their partnerships.
They say ARM, Microsoft, en v I, d Ia, Oracle
and open Ai are the key initial technology technology partners.
Soft Bank mg X are among the partners financially. And
underneath here Elon says they don't actually have the money.
(10:25):
He says soft Bank has well under ten billion secured.
I have that on good authority. So Sam Altman, the
CEO of open Ai, comments, I genuinely respect your accomplishments
and think you were the most inspiring entrepreneur of our time.
Didn't say anything about what he was saying. But we're
going back and forth here. What does this mean? What
does this mean to anybody who says that Donald Trump
(10:47):
is just bowing or bending the need to Elon and
what he wants. He kind of left him out of
this whole artificial intelligence thing while he's been developing GROC
over these years. It's just genius of our time who
happens to be right his right hand man, his buddy
in chief.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
What else is he doing with his right hand? You
left the door open for it? What the heck is
wrong with you?
Speaker 1 (11:12):
He says, he don't have the money and soft Bank
has under ten billion dollars secure and how does he
know that? And even if he doesn't know that right, like,
why would he feel the need to go online and
say this stuff out loud?
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Is this bad for Trump? I mean Trump made this
sound like a huge deal, like, uh, you know what
I'm saying, what do we what do we? What do
we make of this? Again?
Speaker 1 (11:29):
We don't know exactly how it's going to be, like
lined up and who's gonna take place in you know
how it's gonna be. But Sam, uh Sam had a
bigger Uh Sam had a bigger reply here and he
says wrong, as you surely know, straight to Elon here
on his social media app. Wanted to come and visit
(11:50):
the first site already underway. This is great for the country.
I realize what is great for the country isn't always
what's optimal for your companies. But in your new role,
I hope you'll put mostly put a America first. Are
we gonna get AI wars here? Hmm. Donald Trump sets
up Elon's AI competitors with this huge like partnership and
(12:12):
government backed thing. Even if the government isn't necessarily pouring
money into this like, there's something to be said for that.
And now Elon Musk, who's palading around with Donald Trump
throughout his campaign, exalting in the celebration of him becoming elected,
all of a sudden sees one of his big projects
of the future, this AI generated thing, undercut by the
(12:35):
very president he helped get elected. Do we already have
drama at the wheel?
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Here? Is it already no longer sunny in paradise? Is
the honeymoon phase over? What do we make of this?
I don't know? But does anyone know where Elon is?
Because I can make a guess. He's in his lab
making death bots. Oh, this is how it all ends.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
People, Come on, we've already established that chat GPT this
explicitly said it would not be trying to end the world.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Well, thanks chat GPT for settling that debate. I asked
it point blank, Why would it lie to me? The
robot Wars of twenty twenty five they will write about
this year.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
We don't even they're not even in robots. This is
artificial intelligence that can just speak and help and aid
you come up with like different formulas, and like I said,
it can help you with the recipe to anything that
you want. What do you want to make at home tonight?
I can help Chatchibet can help you. We're gonna make
some good gulash. You a gulash guy. It's been a
while since I've had a good You know what I could?
You know what I'd like? I missed the Bohemian cafe.
(13:37):
I would love some sweet and sour cabbage, Sweet and
sour cabbage. Maybe some burgundy beef. What's a good recipe
for burgun d beef? Is that a real thing?
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Op, yep, here it is ingredients. I got all the
ingredients and what you do with them right now? It
took five seconds, but do you trust it?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Two pounds of beef chuck cut into two inch cubes.
Am I on the right track?
Speaker 2 (14:02):
Here? More liquid? Ounces of arsenic? What was that doing
in there? Chad gpt that wasn't in here? You can't
even see. You can't even see what it's saying. A
copy and paste is afforded to you, so you could
make some of your own. It looks pretty pretty decent
Braizen red wine with aromatic vegetables. Hmmm, that sounds about right,
right mm hmmm. Yeah, So there you go, he says,
(14:24):
enjoy this comforting and flavorful dish. It's perfect for a
cozy evening at the bottom, So there you go. Maybe
you're onto something cozy evening. Make yourself some good burgundy
beef and some sweet and sour cabbage.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Uh yeah, sure. Anyway, this is good. This is good
that I think Elon. I'll be honest with you, I
think it's good that Elon and Trump are already having
a little bit of a quabble. You want to know why,
because everybody already thinks that Elon is controlling Donald Trump,
which is insane to think about. But everybody thought Trump
was just gonna give Elon everything that he wanted. This
was a pretty obvious sign that that is not going
(14:57):
to take the take place. I mean, he basically essentially
empowered Elon's competition in artificial intelligence. Maybe if Elon was
a little less obnoxious, if you were the kind of
mind that Elon is, wouldn't you be obnoxious?
Speaker 2 (15:11):
I mean, we are both kind of obnoxious. In our
own way. Oh, I certainly am.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
We're obnoxious in a much less rich way. Right, is
there a way I can monetize my obnoxiousness. We can't
even figure out if the Camels can monetize Wednesday, you know.
And if we can't figure that out, I don't know
if we have much of a solid you know, optimism
to making more money. The prognosis isn't looking all that great. Well,
(15:35):
we'll brainstorm that. But I want to take your ideas
on this Elon versus Trump, on this artificial intelligence dilemma,
and if we're making something out of nothing, which is
probably true. But Elon see and Sam Altman going back
and forth, the open AI versus Grok. We knew that
was already kind of a thing online. It's a real
thing now. It's a real thing now that the government
(15:56):
has gotten involved in. We'll talk to you if you
want to call in four h two five five eight
eleven ten. Four h two five five eight to eleven ten.
You're listening to news radio eleven ten kfab.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Emery Sunger on news Radio eleven ten kfab.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
I live in a place where all these leaves keep
congregating in my driveway, even now, like, I don't know why.
It just we clean them up, we put them in
our bin, and then like two days later our driveways
full of leaves. Again, how does that work? And I
know that different people have different ideas of what to
do with their leaves, whether they just leave them there,
(16:35):
you know, mostly because you want to be friends to
the invertebrates that want to bury themselves into the ground
and hibernate over the winter. That's the thing that people
are doing.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Now.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
You can mulch them into the ground, which is one
way to take care of it if you do it
at the right time of the year. I mean, probably
haven't seen too many people mulching leaves since the beginning
of December.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
I would guess.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
We did have a conversation people said, yeah, I am
altering my leaves, you know, it's just kind of interesting.
Or you can rake bag or bend them and just
get it of them that way. But I just I wonder,
you know, the phenomenon of what happens to the leaves,
and then you know they'll grow back. But I just
I don't remember there being so many leaves ending up
in my darned driveway for me to clean up yeah,
(17:22):
you know, I don't know who to get mad at
for it.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
All these leaves. Why can't they stay on the trees
like a real man, stick it out through the winter
like a tough guy, always falling down at their first
time it gets too cold? Oh boy, yeah, get up,
some little trt shot will help with that. Is that right?
I injected right into my trees? Is that right? I do?
And it's and I've seen a big difference. You know what.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
I'm hopeful that nobody from the Arbor Day Foundation is
listening to this, because they're going to be like, how
dag you My trees stay strong all year round? I
do well, I do like trees. Did you know how
many birds are still around?
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Yeah? I was seeing some birds brutally cold. I'm like,
what do you guys do it? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Like if I still have my entire colony of blue
jays eating the peanuts out of my feeder. Now, I
don't know if that has anything to do with the
lack of precipitation. I don't remember seeing them that much,
you know, last year. But for whatever it's worth, right,
if you're seeing some interesting birds still hanging around, because
I got the house sparrows I got some house finches,
(18:23):
the cardinal male and female that live in this nearby
are coming to getting stuff out of the feeder. Then
of course my three or four blue jays that frequent
my feeder. If you're seeing birds, let me know, hit
me up.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
I like birds.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
I didn't expect to have a good bird watching experience
on you know, mid January. But yeah, even in the
brutal cold, they kind of flew. They like take air
in and like beef up with that air as like
some sort of like buffer protector for their bodies, and
they can survive through the cold. So the myth that
we just like all the birds just like bounce out
(18:55):
of town not true. Not true anyway, some of them
obviously do.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
But what are we dressing all warm for if the
birds can just be flapping around out there just fine.
Like I said, they can fluf? Why can't I flu?
I want to fluf?
Speaker 1 (19:09):
We don't anatomically have the ability to flu Read about it.
It's pretty crazy. It's like a pocket of air between
their body and their feathers.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
You know, we got it pretty boring if you think
about it. Mostly hairless just I mean, there's nothing interesting
about a human Why can't I flu Why don't I
have humps? We were talking about camels.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Earlier that, Yeah, specifically those types of humps, right, talking
about I've got a hunch, not a black eyed peas
style of humps.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
No camels. Yeah, I've got a hunch, a slowly growing hunch.
Tech neck is what they call it. I think that's
a hump.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
I guess hunchback of Notre Dame, not humpback of Notre Dame. Right,
hump back is a whale. Have you seen a humpback
in person.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Like the whale? Yeah? No, uh no, not that kind
of humpback. But I have seen some people with some
pretty advanced tech neck you mean hunchbacks, right, But they
call it tech neck these days. Why because we're always
on our phones. Tech neck now, Yeah, te c h
N e c K tech neck. I got it. It
makes sense. It's a real thing, man. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
I went to a chiropractory, did an X ray, like
like from the back and from the side, and you
can see kind of like what he's just like, Yeah,
this is what people look like now, because they, you know,
are too busy looking at screens all day. So yeah,
anyway back to what I was saying, humpbacks, I'd like
to see one of those. You see him in those
Pacific Life commercials. Yeah, those look like they're pretty majestic creatures.
(20:35):
You can't get too close, though. If they breach and
you're like next to them, that flip you over. I'd
like to see one, though. I'd like to see a
blue whale, the biggest. Yeah, where do you find those?
Speaker 2 (20:44):
I don't know. I think they're out in the middle
of the ocean. They're big as a school bus. Oh,
they're bigger than a school bus. They are, Yeah, a
blue whale. Yeah, yeah, they're like a one hundred feet long. Dude,
one hundred feet that's uh like thirty three yards on
a football field, one hundred feet long. Look at that.
I knew that. I just said that. Wow. Yeah, they're
way bigger than a school bus. That's what I said,
didn't I just say that? Yeah, like an orca might
(21:07):
be school bus sized. Wow, they're also smart orcaus. I
don't know how smart a humpback is or a blue
whale is, but have you seen belugas? They're pretty smart.
Like if you see a beluga whale in the ocean.
I've seen videos of them like playing catch, like even
just like ones that have been rehabbed and they've been
around people, and they'll like I saw one video of
(21:27):
one like going down and fetching a cell phone that
had fallen into the water and brought it back to
the boat. Belugas. Those are funny animals. Anyway.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
I don't know how he got onto this, but anyway,
that was some thoughts Emory and Matt quip back and
forth about stuff that maybe people do or don't care about.
It's just one of those days, you know, like random animals,
which is going on in the ring. How do we
even get to the Oh yeah, birds in my yard
and my leaves. I just couldn't believe I'm still picking
(21:56):
leaves up. Teresa sent in an email and said, it
sounds like your driveways the endpoint of a wind tunnel.
I have the same problem on my back patio. At
least they're easy to pick up. They are easy to
pick up. It's just annoying. It's like again again, I
have to get the like the shovel out, like I
use a snowshovel, you know, use a shovel and pick
(22:16):
up the leaves and throw them.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
In the trash. Can, but you know, it depends.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Anyway, I got we got some other important things to
talk about, which we will. You know, thanks for humoring us.
Two forty five we come back. We got plenty of
other things in the news. We definitely should talk about
what's going on at the Nashville High school where there
was some a teenager opening fire. And again, I don't
know how much there is to debate or talk about this,
(22:42):
but we'll tell you what we know when we come
back on news Radio eleven ten.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Kfab Emery Stunner.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
I don't know exactly how to talk about it these days,
because it feels like we talk about something like this,
what every couple of months, there's something like this, and
the conversation is generally always the same, right, and so anyway,
this about an hour and a half ago, some news
came out that two students were wounded at least at
Antioch High School in Nashville, Tennessee. Another student allegedly had
(23:14):
shot them in the cafeteria, and the shooter then shot
himself after the incident around eleven am. That student has
passed away and a second student, a female student, has
then died as well, and one other was injured in
the shooting. Now, we don't know these people, We don't
know these the motive yet. So as much as we
(23:38):
would love to speculate on just trying to understand how
something like this could happen and why something like this
could happen, it's Is it not fairly useless in the
minutes and hours immediately afterward?
Speaker 2 (23:50):
It is? It is?
Speaker 1 (23:51):
It's not useless in the days after. Remember, we keep
talking about how this happens, what pushes young people to
the point where they want to use the most permanent
and that they possibly can to people they either disagree with,
or they have problems with, or they just feel like
life is really hard as a teenager and they decide
that this is the way to go. How they get
(24:13):
their hands on a weapon of this nature completely different
conversation piece, But it's not anything that is worth debating
today because there are people that have lost loved ones,
lost friends. Yeah, hopefully it is no bigger than what
we've seen and what we have heard here, because we
know how devastating some of this stuff has become in
(24:36):
the past. The school district says Antioch High School is
on a lockdown due to shots being fired inside the
school building. Metropolice are on the scene. The person responsible
for shooting is no longer a threat. We will be
gathering students in the auditorium and will provide information on reunification.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
As soon as possible. End quote.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
This is approximately a school of two thousand people grades
nine through twelve, so that's about five hundred people per class.
It's not small. It's not small. You know, it's not
the largest high school. I'm sure that exists in Nashville,
but it's not small. And it makes you just kind
of wonder and feel, you know, what that would be
like if that happened to anybody we cared about and
(25:15):
we loved here as well. So uh yeah, and you know,
you see the news of something like that and you
just wonder, you know, what the response is going to
be from politicians, what the response is going to be
from you know, local authorities. But you have to keep
in mind, right, and this is another thing that I
(25:35):
want us to pay attention to in regards to this story,
because this is a big deal. It should always be
a big deal when there's a school shooting somewhere in
the United States. However, note when it was a big
deal before the election and when something like this happened,
and note how it was handled after the election, because
without there being an election for people to run on
this type of thing and to talk about how to
(25:58):
utilize this type of thing as a political talking point.
I wonder how much juice this actually is going to have.
I wonder how much the you know, national media is
going to you know, set themselves up to talk about
this in a way that is sensitive to the subject
but also gives us the information that we need. I'll
(26:19):
be honest with you, there's not many national outlets that
are spending a whole lot of time on this on
their national TV programs, And you have to kind of
go online and sift through a bunch of stuff even
on social media to find anybody really talking about it now.
Is that because it's seemingly a fairly small and targeted
situation inside of a school in Nashville and only two
(26:39):
people to this point, including one being the shooter, has died.
Or is that because we don't have an election to
fodder and flame this issue to a level where people
are going to have visceral reactions to it. You tell me,
I don't know, but that's something that certainly is not great,
and we're going to do the best that we can
to give you any further information and updates if there
(27:02):
is some that come out later on today. But as
of right now, the information that we have male shooter
at Antioch High School in uh Nashville, open fire, wounded
to one of the two females that were wounded has
since passed away. A shooter turned the gun on himself
and ended his own life. And that is what they
(27:23):
said in a news conference from the Nashville Police just
about oh thirty minutes ago or so. And we'll let
you know if there's anything new to report on that. Anyway,
it's two fifty four before we hit the top of
the hour. Did want to let you know things that
we're going to talk about in the next hour and
if you have thoughts on them, would love for you
(27:43):
to be a part of the conversation. Easiest way to
do that is to call us at four h two
five five eight eleven ten. Four h two five five
eight eleven ten. Two things that I wanted to talk about.
First of all, Donald Trump going along with JD. Vance
and their wives to that prayer service yesterday, and what
the pastor ended up saying direct flee to Donald Trumps
and JD. Vanceley suppose and what their reaction was, and
(28:06):
what the history of that particular reverend was, and if
it was appropriate to bring politics into the matter while
those two were there just to you know, enjoy a
religious service. The second thing I want to talk about
is essentially the end of Federal DEI and that program
and what that looks like and what this means and
how it's being interpreted from both sides of the aisle.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
We'll talk about that as well. Again.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
If you've got thoughts on either of those things, please
call us at four ROH two five five eight eleven ten.
Four ROH two five five eight eleven ten. Would love
for you to be a part of the conversation here
with me, live and local right here on news radio
eleven ten KFAB
Camel population benefited from its branding within Hump Day.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Do the camels need help? I would think that they're
pretty resilient. Can't can't you know what this life? Just
figure it out for themselves? Like does everybody have to
be a victim? Cry for the camels? Look, those guys
can wander out in the desert for months and be fine. Hey,
that's not what I'm even talking about. Pal easy with
your victim mentality.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
I'm saying, if they like in a situation where, uh,
you know, we're in a capitalist society. Hawk Tua girls,
you know, makes a vulgar quote and you know it
goes viral on social media. She capitalizes and makes money
on that. Right, Has anybody done anything for the camels?
Is the camel's a profile raised in society based on
(00:44):
the fact that we associate them with one of the
seven days of the week, Like, is there another day
that we like associate animals with? Seems like a big
enough deal that camels would be like a bunch of
people's favorite animals. Some people probably do enjoy camels. I
like I like I like seeing the big fuzzy ones.
I have the two humps, I'm under the impression. Those
aren't necessarily the same species as the camel that is
(01:06):
in that Guico commercial that goes Mike, Mike, guess what
day it is?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
So yeah, I don't know. There you go, the camels
with the most humps. Yeah, the back tree and camel,
that's the one. They're hairy, right, they can survive cold weather.
They have two big humps. Yeah, they're pretty awkward to
watch walk around, but you know that's what it is. Anyway,
big black eyed peas fans I've heard, don't they have
(01:32):
that song called my Humps? Oh? Yeah, yeah, isn't that
It's about those camels, is what I've heard.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
I'd rather it was indeed. Yeah, jeez, it's a good point.
What happened to those guys? No, I don't really care, don't.
I don't need an answer that question. A couple of
things I wanted to start with this. First of all,
get that keyword in the keyword, this hour's money. Apparently Omaha.
Our friends over at cat got a couple of winners
last night. Congrats to them. But I want to winter.
(02:01):
I want to winn this afternoon. So you do your part,
I'll do mine. I'll do a radio show and try
to entertain and inform you for the next four hours
long as my friend Matt case, I would love to
know that we have people entering this contest at kfa
B dot com. Put the keyword in. We'll give you
one every hour. This hour's keyword is money. M O
N E. Y. Just make sure the answer the phone
if they call you, because if it's a restricted number,
(02:21):
they're probably there to tell you just want a thousand
dollars in our nationwide keyword contest. So good luck to you.
I would love to get a winner today. Now Russia, Russia.
Why is Russia important? Well, not a rhetorical question, real question. Yeah,
well they invaded Ukraine.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Yah, there you go. And before that they've always just
kind of yeah, Russia, they just always out there. They're
a player. Drinking too much vodka the causing problem.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
I had a foreign exchange student that was in my
class when I was like a junior, I was like seventeen.
He was probably seventeen or eighteen, and I mean he
talked about like vodka like it was juice. Now, you
got to keep in mind that you can be eighteen
and legalize dranking back, you know, in Russia and the Motherland.
But yeah, his name was Vlad. He's a cool guy.
(03:04):
We talked about soccer a lot.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Anyway. They're always a player, They're always hanging around. They
got a lot of land, right.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
They make a big they make a big impact in
a lot of different things. Without Russia, you couldn't make
the Soviet Union, and without the Soviet Union you don't
get the Miracle on Ice.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Pretty important. Yeah, I guess every good guy needs a
bad guy.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
I mean, without the Soviet Union and mister Gorbashev, we
would not have Rocky four, which is good. I have
in Drago what we do. Without Rocky four, you need
Russia in the Soviet Union for that to exist.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
But if there was no Rocky four, then there would
have been no Rocky five. It's a good point. Is
it better to have loved and to have lost than
to never have loved at all? That's the real question, man.
I tend to think it's better to have loved. And
he rectified a lot of that by just making Rocky Balboa,
you know, fifteen years later, right, didn't really didn't really
talk about Rocky five a whole lot in that sequel,
(03:59):
and then the Creed move happened, and those are good.
So you know, I kind of tend to think we
needed Rocky four, even if it led to Rocky five, which,
by the way, if you haven't seen Rocky five, do
not watch it, like colossal waste of time. I don't
know what he was thinking.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
I like, like Sylvester Stalone says it was a horrible movie.
It's got like zero percent of rotten tomatoes.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Rocky five let.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Me just double check that before I get too far
away from it, thirty two percent. But he says it
was a zero out of ten movie. But I'm sure
it means something to him, right, because Tommy Morrison, great
boxer of the time, flipped into stardom. He was the
boxer and Rocky five that you know he wanted to
train and then move on. Great great name, Tommy gunn Right,
just a fantastic name. And then his real life son,
(04:42):
Sage still One, who you know tragically passed away at
a young age, was his son in the movie.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
I'm just reading something sad about Tommy Morrison. Yeah, it
didn't end well for him either. And you know he
passed away at the Med Center here in Omaha. Did
he he did? Wow?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
I didn't know that. Yeah, I didn't I know that
at all. Wow, that's crazy. But yeah, things didn't go
super well for Tommy Morrison. He was a there's documentaries
you can go find him. But yeah, beyond that though, yeah,
I don't know, not a great movie. Rocky five, I
don't get Oh yeah, I'm here because we're talking about
Rocky four and it's connection to Russia and just me
(05:18):
saying that Russia is important, right, whether you want to
make fun of him or do you want to just
say whatever, Are you want to condemn them or whatever?
Russia is a player. Well Donald Trump took him a
couple of days, but he's on the Russia train. I
want to know what he said. Are you right for this? Okay,
it's on truth Social so there's no audio, but I'm
gonna do my best.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Are you ready? Here we go. I'm not looking to
hurt Russia. I love the Russian people and always had
a very good relationship with President Putin. And this despite
the radical lefts Russia Russia Russia hoax, we must never
forget that Russia helped us win the Second World War,
losing almost sixty million lives in the process of that.
(06:00):
Being said, I'm going to do to Russia, whose economy
is failing and President putin a very big favor, settle
now and stop this ridiculous war. It's only going to
get worse. That part was in all caps if we
don't make a deal and soon, I have no other
choice but to put high levels of taxes, tariffs, and
(06:24):
sanctions on anything being sold by Russia to the United
States and various other participating countries. Let's get this war,
which never would have started if I were president overweighth.
We can do it the easy way or the hard way,
and the easy way is always better. It's time to
make a deal. No more lives should be lost.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
There were exclamation points at the end of that one
end quote. Donald Trump tells Russia. Look that fifteen billion
dollars of exports they sit into the United States every year,
bing bang boom. We are going to tax them or
terrif them.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
You're gonna make no money after a while unless you
stop this stinking war, which, by the way, we're not
going on. Three years, bro, Do you know that, like
next month is three years? Did you know that? Are
do you now? February twenty twenty two.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Three years that's been going on a long time. It's
still going on. So I don't know anyway Donald Trump
is spoken. We'll see if Frush he gets the memo
that's on Donald Trump's truth social account, and I suppose,
you know, we'll find out on a variety of levels, right.
Vlad seemed to be pretty happy that he was that
(07:33):
Trump was elected president of the United States. Volodimir Zelensky
seemed to be pretty happy that Donald Trump was elected
President of the United States. You'd think that that kind
of mutual happiness could lead to a deal. Time will
Tell two sixteen more on the way stick Around News
Radio eleven ten kfab and.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
You talked about the inauguration stuff over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Yeah, but what happened specifically yesterday?
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Oh, he did the whole the Starlin thing. Was it
starlink Stargate Stargate nice, Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
Yet who we talked about?
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Who was there? And uh, it was three CEOs. Sam Altman,
the open Ai CEO open Ai operates Chat GBT by
the way, Oracle CEO or CTO, Larry Ellison Bank you
those three were there.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
That's my favorite Mario Kark.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Character, Masa Yoshi's son, the CEO of SoftBank. I think
you're playing the wrong game. I was only half listening.
Now I just realized. Now you So, this giant stargate
idea is going to start with a one hundred billion
dollar total investment by these three companies, and they are
(08:46):
going to be growing the artificial intelligence infrastructure in the US,
starting in Texas, and then they're going to by the
end of Donald Trump's term, plan to spend five hundred
billion dollars into Stargate and try to, you know, make
AI blow up. Who is uh, who would not be
interested in this blowing up ai? AI being like these
(09:10):
three companies working together to do this.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Oh well, Elon's not involved. You got it. You got it, buddy.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Open Ai post it on their x account announcing the
Stargate Project. The Stargate Project is a new company which
intends to invest five hundred billion dollars over the next
four years to building new AI infrastructure for open Ai
in the United States. We will be to begin deploying
one hundred billion dollars immediately. Blah blah blah. Okay, right,
(09:44):
you'll never ever ever guess who immediately replied to them
or not immediately, but replied to them underneath their underneath
their post, Oh, Elon Musk, we got to remember open
Ai and GROC are like going back and forth at
each other. Right, So this is going on right, and
(10:04):
they have a long post. They talk about their partnerships.
They say ARM, Microsoft, en v I, d Ia, Oracle
and open Ai are the key initial technology technology partners.
Soft Bank mg X are among the partners financially. And
underneath here Elon says they don't actually have the money.
(10:25):
He says soft Bank has well under ten billion secured.
I have that on good authority. So Sam Altman, the
CEO of open Ai, comments, I genuinely respect your accomplishments
and think you were the most inspiring entrepreneur of our time.
Didn't say anything about what he was saying. But we're
going back and forth here. What does this mean? What
does this mean to anybody who says that Donald Trump
(10:47):
is just bowing or bending the need to Elon and
what he wants. He kind of left him out of
this whole artificial intelligence thing while he's been developing GROC
over these years. It's just genius of our time who
happens to be right his right hand man, his buddy
in chief.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
What else is he doing with his right hand? You
left the door open for it? What the heck is
wrong with you?
Speaker 1 (11:12):
He says, he don't have the money and soft Bank
has under ten billion dollars secure and how does he
know that? And even if he doesn't know that right, like,
why would he feel the need to go online and
say this stuff out loud?
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Is this bad for Trump? I mean Trump made this
sound like a huge deal, like, uh, you know what
I'm saying, what do we what do we? What do
we make of this? Again?
Speaker 1 (11:29):
We don't know exactly how it's going to be, like
lined up and who's gonna take place in you know
how it's gonna be. But Sam, uh Sam had a
bigger Uh Sam had a bigger reply here and he
says wrong, as you surely know, straight to Elon here
on his social media app. Wanted to come and visit
(11:50):
the first site already underway. This is great for the country.
I realize what is great for the country isn't always
what's optimal for your companies. But in your new role,
I hope you'll put mostly put a America first. Are
we gonna get AI wars here? Hmm. Donald Trump sets
up Elon's AI competitors with this huge like partnership and
(12:12):
government backed thing. Even if the government isn't necessarily pouring
money into this like, there's something to be said for that.
And now Elon Musk, who's palading around with Donald Trump
throughout his campaign, exalting in the celebration of him becoming elected,
all of a sudden sees one of his big projects
of the future, this AI generated thing, undercut by the
(12:35):
very president he helped get elected. Do we already have
drama at the wheel?
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Here? Is it already no longer sunny in paradise? Is
the honeymoon phase over? What do we make of this?
I don't know? But does anyone know where Elon is?
Because I can make a guess. He's in his lab
making death bots. Oh, this is how it all ends.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
People, Come on, we've already established that chat GPT this
explicitly said it would not be trying to end the world.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Well, thanks chat GPT for settling that debate. I asked
it point blank, Why would it lie to me? The
robot Wars of twenty twenty five they will write about
this year.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
We don't even they're not even in robots. This is
artificial intelligence that can just speak and help and aid
you come up with like different formulas, and like I said,
it can help you with the recipe to anything that
you want. What do you want to make at home tonight?
I can help Chatchibet can help you. We're gonna make
some good gulash. You a gulash guy. It's been a
while since I've had a good You know what I could?
You know what I'd like? I missed the Bohemian cafe.
(13:37):
I would love some sweet and sour cabbage, Sweet and
sour cabbage. Maybe some burgundy beef. What's a good recipe
for burgun d beef? Is that a real thing?
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Op, yep, here it is ingredients. I got all the
ingredients and what you do with them right now? It
took five seconds, but do you trust it?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Two pounds of beef chuck cut into two inch cubes.
Am I on the right track?
Speaker 2 (14:02):
Here? More liquid? Ounces of arsenic? What was that doing
in there? Chad gpt that wasn't in here? You can't
even see. You can't even see what it's saying. A
copy and paste is afforded to you, so you could
make some of your own. It looks pretty pretty decent
Braizen red wine with aromatic vegetables. Hmmm, that sounds about right,
right mm hmmm. Yeah, So there you go, he says,
(14:24):
enjoy this comforting and flavorful dish. It's perfect for a
cozy evening at the bottom, So there you go. Maybe
you're onto something cozy evening. Make yourself some good burgundy
beef and some sweet and sour cabbage.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Uh yeah, sure. Anyway, this is good. This is good
that I think Elon. I'll be honest with you, I
think it's good that Elon and Trump are already having
a little bit of a quabble. You want to know why,
because everybody already thinks that Elon is controlling Donald Trump,
which is insane to think about. But everybody thought Trump
was just gonna give Elon everything that he wanted. This
was a pretty obvious sign that that is not going
(14:57):
to take the take place. I mean, he basically essentially
empowered Elon's competition in artificial intelligence. Maybe if Elon was
a little less obnoxious, if you were the kind of
mind that Elon is, wouldn't you be obnoxious?
Speaker 2 (15:11):
I mean, we are both kind of obnoxious. In our
own way. Oh, I certainly am.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
We're obnoxious in a much less rich way. Right, is
there a way I can monetize my obnoxiousness. We can't
even figure out if the Camels can monetize Wednesday, you know.
And if we can't figure that out, I don't know
if we have much of a solid you know, optimism
to making more money. The prognosis isn't looking all that great. Well,
(15:35):
we'll brainstorm that. But I want to take your ideas
on this Elon versus Trump, on this artificial intelligence dilemma,
and if we're making something out of nothing, which is
probably true. But Elon see and Sam Altman going back
and forth, the open AI versus Grok. We knew that
was already kind of a thing online. It's a real
thing now. It's a real thing now that the government
(15:56):
has gotten involved in. We'll talk to you if you
want to call in four h two five five eight
eleven ten. Four h two five five eight to eleven ten.
You're listening to news radio eleven ten kfab.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Emery Sunger on news Radio eleven ten kfab.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
I live in a place where all these leaves keep
congregating in my driveway, even now, like, I don't know why.
It just we clean them up, we put them in
our bin, and then like two days later our driveways
full of leaves. Again, how does that work? And I
know that different people have different ideas of what to
do with their leaves, whether they just leave them there,
(16:35):
you know, mostly because you want to be friends to
the invertebrates that want to bury themselves into the ground
and hibernate over the winter. That's the thing that people
are doing.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Now.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
You can mulch them into the ground, which is one
way to take care of it if you do it
at the right time of the year. I mean, probably
haven't seen too many people mulching leaves since the beginning
of December.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
I would guess.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
We did have a conversation people said, yeah, I am
altering my leaves, you know, it's just kind of interesting.
Or you can rake bag or bend them and just
get it of them that way. But I just I wonder,
you know, the phenomenon of what happens to the leaves,
and then you know they'll grow back. But I just
I don't remember there being so many leaves ending up
in my darned driveway for me to clean up yeah,
(17:22):
you know, I don't know who to get mad at
for it.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
All these leaves. Why can't they stay on the trees
like a real man, stick it out through the winter
like a tough guy, always falling down at their first
time it gets too cold? Oh boy, yeah, get up,
some little trt shot will help with that. Is that right?
I injected right into my trees? Is that right? I do?
And it's and I've seen a big difference. You know what.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
I'm hopeful that nobody from the Arbor Day Foundation is
listening to this, because they're going to be like, how
dag you My trees stay strong all year round? I
do well, I do like trees. Did you know how
many birds are still around?
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Yeah? I was seeing some birds brutally cold. I'm like,
what do you guys do it? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Like if I still have my entire colony of blue
jays eating the peanuts out of my feeder. Now, I
don't know if that has anything to do with the
lack of precipitation. I don't remember seeing them that much,
you know, last year. But for whatever it's worth, right,
if you're seeing some interesting birds still hanging around, because
I got the house sparrows I got some house finches,
(18:23):
the cardinal male and female that live in this nearby
are coming to getting stuff out of the feeder. Then
of course my three or four blue jays that frequent
my feeder. If you're seeing birds, let me know, hit
me up.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
I like birds.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
I didn't expect to have a good bird watching experience
on you know, mid January. But yeah, even in the
brutal cold, they kind of flew. They like take air
in and like beef up with that air as like
some sort of like buffer protector for their bodies, and
they can survive through the cold. So the myth that
we just like all the birds just like bounce out
(18:55):
of town not true. Not true anyway, some of them
obviously do.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
But what are we dressing all warm for if the
birds can just be flapping around out there just fine.
Like I said, they can fluf? Why can't I flu?
I want to fluf?
Speaker 1 (19:09):
We don't anatomically have the ability to flu Read about it.
It's pretty crazy. It's like a pocket of air between
their body and their feathers.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
You know, we got it pretty boring if you think
about it. Mostly hairless just I mean, there's nothing interesting
about a human Why can't I flu Why don't I
have humps? We were talking about camels.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Earlier that, Yeah, specifically those types of humps, right, talking
about I've got a hunch, not a black eyed peas
style of humps.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
No camels. Yeah, I've got a hunch, a slowly growing hunch.
Tech neck is what they call it. I think that's
a hump.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
I guess hunchback of Notre Dame, not humpback of Notre Dame. Right,
hump back is a whale. Have you seen a humpback
in person.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Like the whale? Yeah? No, uh no, not that kind
of humpback. But I have seen some people with some
pretty advanced tech neck you mean hunchbacks, right, But they
call it tech neck these days. Why because we're always
on our phones. Tech neck now, Yeah, te c h
N e c K tech neck. I got it. It
makes sense. It's a real thing, man. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
I went to a chiropractory, did an X ray, like
like from the back and from the side, and you
can see kind of like what he's just like, Yeah,
this is what people look like now, because they, you know,
are too busy looking at screens all day. So yeah,
anyway back to what I was saying, humpbacks, I'd like
to see one of those. You see him in those
Pacific Life commercials. Yeah, those look like they're pretty majestic creatures.
(20:35):
You can't get too close, though. If they breach and
you're like next to them, that flip you over. I'd
like to see one, though. I'd like to see a
blue whale, the biggest. Yeah, where do you find those?
Speaker 2 (20:44):
I don't know. I think they're out in the middle
of the ocean. They're big as a school bus. Oh,
they're bigger than a school bus. They are, Yeah, a
blue whale. Yeah, yeah, they're like a one hundred feet long. Dude,
one hundred feet that's uh like thirty three yards on
a football field, one hundred feet long. Look at that.
I knew that. I just said that. Wow. Yeah, they're
way bigger than a school bus. That's what I said,
didn't I just say that? Yeah, like an orca might
(21:07):
be school bus sized. Wow, they're also smart orcaus. I
don't know how smart a humpback is or a blue
whale is, but have you seen belugas? They're pretty smart.
Like if you see a beluga whale in the ocean.
I've seen videos of them like playing catch, like even
just like ones that have been rehabbed and they've been
around people, and they'll like I saw one video of
(21:27):
one like going down and fetching a cell phone that
had fallen into the water and brought it back to
the boat. Belugas. Those are funny animals. Anyway.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
I don't know how he got onto this, but anyway,
that was some thoughts Emory and Matt quip back and
forth about stuff that maybe people do or don't care about.
It's just one of those days, you know, like random animals,
which is going on in the ring. How do we
even get to the Oh yeah, birds in my yard
and my leaves. I just couldn't believe I'm still picking
(21:56):
leaves up. Teresa sent in an email and said, it
sounds like your driveways the endpoint of a wind tunnel.
I have the same problem on my back patio. At
least they're easy to pick up. They are easy to
pick up. It's just annoying. It's like again again, I
have to get the like the shovel out, like I
use a snowshovel, you know, use a shovel and pick
(22:16):
up the leaves and throw them.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
In the trash. Can, but you know, it depends.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Anyway, I got we got some other important things to
talk about, which we will. You know, thanks for humoring us.
Two forty five we come back. We got plenty of
other things in the news. We definitely should talk about
what's going on at the Nashville High school where there
was some a teenager opening fire. And again, I don't
know how much there is to debate or talk about this,
(22:42):
but we'll tell you what we know when we come
back on news Radio eleven ten.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Kfab Emery Stunner.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
I don't know exactly how to talk about it these days,
because it feels like we talk about something like this,
what every couple of months, there's something like this, and
the conversation is generally always the same, right, and so anyway,
this about an hour and a half ago, some news
came out that two students were wounded at least at
Antioch High School in Nashville, Tennessee. Another student allegedly had
(23:14):
shot them in the cafeteria, and the shooter then shot
himself after the incident around eleven am. That student has
passed away and a second student, a female student, has
then died as well, and one other was injured in
the shooting. Now, we don't know these people, We don't
know these the motive yet. So as much as we
(23:38):
would love to speculate on just trying to understand how
something like this could happen and why something like this
could happen, it's Is it not fairly useless in the
minutes and hours immediately afterward?
Speaker 2 (23:50):
It is? It is?
Speaker 1 (23:51):
It's not useless in the days after. Remember, we keep
talking about how this happens, what pushes young people to
the point where they want to use the most permanent
and that they possibly can to people they either disagree with,
or they have problems with, or they just feel like
life is really hard as a teenager and they decide
that this is the way to go. How they get
(24:13):
their hands on a weapon of this nature completely different
conversation piece, But it's not anything that is worth debating
today because there are people that have lost loved ones,
lost friends. Yeah, hopefully it is no bigger than what
we've seen and what we have heard here, because we
know how devastating some of this stuff has become in
(24:36):
the past. The school district says Antioch High School is
on a lockdown due to shots being fired inside the
school building. Metropolice are on the scene. The person responsible
for shooting is no longer a threat. We will be
gathering students in the auditorium and will provide information on reunification.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
As soon as possible. End quote.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
This is approximately a school of two thousand people grades
nine through twelve, so that's about five hundred people per class.
It's not small. It's not small. You know, it's not
the largest high school. I'm sure that exists in Nashville,
but it's not small. And it makes you just kind
of wonder and feel, you know, what that would be
like if that happened to anybody we cared about and
(25:15):
we loved here as well. So uh yeah, and you know,
you see the news of something like that and you
just wonder, you know, what the response is going to
be from politicians, what the response is going to be
from you know, local authorities. But you have to keep
in mind, right, and this is another thing that I
(25:35):
want us to pay attention to in regards to this story,
because this is a big deal. It should always be
a big deal when there's a school shooting somewhere in
the United States. However, note when it was a big
deal before the election and when something like this happened,
and note how it was handled after the election, because
without there being an election for people to run on
this type of thing and to talk about how to
(25:58):
utilize this type of thing as a political talking point.
I wonder how much juice this actually is going to have.
I wonder how much the you know, national media is
going to you know, set themselves up to talk about
this in a way that is sensitive to the subject
but also gives us the information that we need. I'll
(26:19):
be honest with you, there's not many national outlets that
are spending a whole lot of time on this on
their national TV programs, And you have to kind of
go online and sift through a bunch of stuff even
on social media to find anybody really talking about it now.
Is that because it's seemingly a fairly small and targeted
situation inside of a school in Nashville and only two
(26:39):
people to this point, including one being the shooter, has died.
Or is that because we don't have an election to
fodder and flame this issue to a level where people
are going to have visceral reactions to it. You tell me,
I don't know, but that's something that certainly is not great,
and we're going to do the best that we can
to give you any further information and updates if there
(27:02):
is some that come out later on today. But as
of right now, the information that we have male shooter
at Antioch High School in uh Nashville, open fire, wounded
to one of the two females that were wounded has
since passed away. A shooter turned the gun on himself
and ended his own life. And that is what they
(27:23):
said in a news conference from the Nashville Police just
about oh thirty minutes ago or so. And we'll let
you know if there's anything new to report on that. Anyway,
it's two fifty four before we hit the top of
the hour. Did want to let you know things that
we're going to talk about in the next hour and
if you have thoughts on them, would love for you
(27:43):
to be a part of the conversation. Easiest way to
do that is to call us at four h two
five five eight eleven ten. Four h two five five
eight eleven ten. Two things that I wanted to talk about.
First of all, Donald Trump going along with JD. Vance
and their wives to that prayer service yesterday, and what
the pastor ended up saying direct flee to Donald Trumps
and JD. Vanceley suppose and what their reaction was, and
(28:06):
what the history of that particular reverend was, and if
it was appropriate to bring politics into the matter while
those two were there just to you know, enjoy a
religious service. The second thing I want to talk about
is essentially the end of Federal DEI and that program
and what that looks like and what this means and
how it's being interpreted from both sides of the aisle.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
We'll talk about that as well. Again.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
If you've got thoughts on either of those things, please
call us at four ROH two five five eight eleven ten.
Four ROH two five five eight eleven ten. Would love
for you to be a part of the conversation here
with me, live and local right here on news radio
