Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is a podcast from war.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
From Everywhere, USA. It's Fox Across America with Jimmy Fayla.

Speaker 3 (00:11):
Oh Girl, Here we go, Here we Go. Comedy Alive
from the greatest country in the World, broadcast from the
tippy top of the world famous Fox News headquarters of
New York City. Big Thursday episode of Fox Across America
with Jimmy Fla. It begins with a massive gambling scandal
in the NBA Trailblazers coach Chauncey Billups amongst a group
of people busted for fixing poker games. Yeah, it turns

(00:34):
out when Trump sent troops to Portland, he was going
after their basketball team. I had no idea, but a
busy episode of the show. Nonetheless, Kennedy's going to be here, Diamond,
Dave Landau is going to be here. There's still a
hullabaloo going on in Washington over the White House renovations.
Will pick up a shovel and cover that. And of course,
the shutdown itself continues, but not without some fresh sound

(00:54):
from Senator John Fetterman, who's now saying the obvious part
out loud that this shutdown is the end result of
his own party, Democrats are so full of crap. Good
on Fetterman for calling it out. We'll get into him
and we're going to have some sound that we will
play you later in this hour from the View. No God, no, God, please, no, no, no,

(01:19):
it's kinda happen. Man, it's my job, okay, Fox across America.
I always say I am not the star of the show.
We are, Okay. That's my superpower, the fact that I
don't have when just a regular guy have it on
his conversations. I'm not trying to change anyone's political opinions
along the way, but we play the teams on the schedule,
and when you hear someone on the View weighing in
on a white house renovation, now let's be clear, you

(01:41):
have to take it seriously because the women of the
View have gotten a lot of facelifts over the years.

Speaker 4 (01:45):
That's true.

Speaker 5 (01:46):
That is true.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
So we will play it and we'll discuss it with
Dave landaut eighted eight seven and eight nine nine one zero.
If you want to be a part of the show,
the rules are the same every day. You are all welcome.
You could be a Republican, you could be a Democrat.
Just don't be a bang Happy third. So the NBA story,
just to get you up to speed, Chubb Blazer's head
coach Chauncey Billups, Miami Heat guard Terry A. Rogier, and

(02:10):
former NBA Guarden coach Damon Jones. We're amongst thirty four
arrested as part of a widespread FBI investigation on Thursday.
Also have as many I believe as one hundred and
fifty six members of what they're calling the Italian mafia
involved in rigging these high level games, something I would
say was inevitable and something I would say is going

(02:33):
on in far greater fashion than anybody would like to acknowledge,
since they flooded every single second of every single sports
broadcast with some type of a promotion for a parlay bet,
some profit boost five dollars will win you thirty two
type deal. I mean, I remember talking to you about
this when Pete Rose died last year, and it was

(02:56):
the most insane thing to me, because Pete Rose, of
course was banned for life from baseball for betting on
sports and his own team, something he did, in fact do,
but the sports leagues had a different stance on gambling
back then, so Pete was serving a lifetime band. At
the time he died, every single broadcast covering his death

(03:16):
was sponsored by an online gambling site, What d Headless
the world coming, every single one and something I will
tell you. As a guy who spent a lot of
time in and out of casinos running from bookies in
his youth, I've been very upfront about that. I was
a big gambler in my twenties. I still gamble. I
ate a time Square chicken kebab five minutes ago. You

(03:38):
want to talk about rolling the talk about rolling the
dice Time Square Chicken. This could be a problem. I mean, yeah,
for real. I mean mainly the fact that it's not
even chicken to begin with. But the point is, as
we get on the air here, I've been pretty upfront
with you about my proclivities as it pertains to gambling
in my youth, in my twenties and my thirties, and

(04:00):
I understood that once the cash gets as big as
it has, it's inevitable that even rich, powerful people like
NBA coaches and players are going to get ensnared in
some of this because there are a lot of very
simple ways that you can fix the outcome of a
wager like in baseball, you don't have to fix a

(04:20):
game anymore. You know, that requires a much larger effort
that's far more detectable. They do things now like you
can bet on the first pitch of the game. Is
it going to be a ball or a strike? Okay,
the pitcher is in on it. As a former member
of the Cleveland Indians was Dylan class. Okay, if you're
getting money to throw a first pitch ball, you're not
fixing the game. It's just a one to zero count

(04:42):
when the bat, you know, and here we go, rest
of the bat, let it be? And that because of
those prop bets, because of those in game parlays, because
of those in game bets, every one of these sports
leagues that's played, along with these proposition situations, has fed
and furthered the idea that athletes are going to get

(05:02):
corrupted by gambling.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
He knows what he's talking about.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
Okay, at the college level, where some of them don't
make as much money, but even in the NBA level
where they do. Okay. Chauncey Billups the head coach of
the Blazers. But the guy won an NBA title with
the Pistons. Okay, he was a great player. He had
a huge career, he made a lot of money. Okay,
yet he's still wound up showing up and playing in
games that he knew were fixed. Okay. So it's a

(05:29):
crazy way for me to start my Thursday. It's a
crazy way for ESPN. Okay, who just kicked off their
NBA coverage this week. We're watching Charles Barkley and Shaquille O'Neill.
Kenny Smith wrapped things up last night when I went
to bed and it was just all NBA. This morning,
you throw on the TV and it's all Cash Bettel.
He's the FBI director. He'll take you inside what went on.

(05:52):
I'll give you some of that, and more importantly, i'll
give you Joseph Nicella, who waited as well. I believe
he's with the FBI of the district attorneys off as
Clip one.

Speaker 6 (06:02):
My message to the defendants who've been rounded up today
is this, your winning streak has ended.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
Your luck has run out.

Speaker 6 (06:11):
Violating the law is a losing proposition and you can
bet on that.

Speaker 3 (06:16):
Okay. So that's not so much detail. That's like the
declarative sentence, like we're not going to stand for this.
You're in big trouble. Now, mister, let me give you
a little bit more from Betel anyway of the actual
intricacies of who was involved in how this was going on.
Clip three.

Speaker 7 (06:34):
Not only did we crack into the fraud that these
perpetrators committed on the grand stage of the NBA, but
we also entered and executed a system of justice against
La Casinoshra to include the Bonano, Gambino, Genevesi and Luchas
crime families. The chargers and the arrest that were taken

(06:55):
down across this country range from wire fraud, money laundering, extortion, robbery,
illegal gama. This FBI will leave no room for any
perpetrator of crime across this country. You hear a lot
about our work of defending the homeland and crushing violent crime. Well,
this work is also representative of a colossal portion of
the FBI's mandate to keep America safe and to keep

(07:15):
our entertainment industry fair and secure.

Speaker 3 (07:18):
Okay, so big move being made, and I doubt it's
the first of many. I'm telling you now because I care.
It's a lot of people involved with sports that are
betting on them, a lot of them. Okay, not necessarily
the sport that they're playing. But in a lot of times, yes,
the sport that they're playing, and that's a pretty known
thing if you hang around ball players. These guys are
two things. One is hyper competitive, so they always like

(07:41):
a game within a game to give them some other stakes.
But the other is money. There's a lot of money
in gambling, Okay, tons of money in gambling. We're paying
in cash, So when something like this happens, it's actually
not a shock to anybody who spent any amount of
time around casinos or highlight level card games. But the

(08:02):
overarching headline is that four NBA teams and four mafia
families teamed up for a seven million dollar online gambling scandal.
Okay that's what we're reading. Okay, that's the takeaway. In
today's New York Post, Portland Trailblazers head coach Chauncey Billips,
Miami heat guard Terry Rogier, former NBA player Damon Jones

(08:22):
are among those indicted in the stunning takedown of two
separate illegal gambling related cases. Thirty one people, including members
of the Bonano, Gambino, Genevies and Lukees mafia families, and
coaches and players from the Charlotte Hornets, Portland Trailblazers, Los
Angeles Lakers, and Toronto Raptors have all been arrested in
the scheme carried out between January of twenty twenty two

(08:43):
and March of twenty twenty four. Wow, wild stuff, Okay.
And the only thing I'll tell you, because we have
a lot to get to in terms of the shutdown
and the politics and the infighting of that and everything
in between, is that this culture, this culture of more gambling,
of encouraging more kids to get involved in gambling at
an early age by throwing these dopey prop bets out there,

(09:06):
is what created this exact situation. Like I say this
to Lincoln every day. My son is sixteen. He'll be
on the show Friday to close it out this week.
He always comes on Friday. You know, we do a
little playground politics, We talk about high school football. I
always say to Lincoln, like I'm always telling him about
gambling because I spent a lot of time gambling. You know,
Like when I was a senior in high school and

(09:26):
they had that like just say No week where people
come in and lecture about drugs and drinking and gambling.
The guy sitting in front of my classroom, crying to
a group of high school kids because he owed a
bookmaker a lot of money. At the time, I was
sitting there in the second chair from the front. This man,
crying to a room full of high school kids about

(09:48):
the dangers of gambling, was down twelve thousand dollars less
than I was at the time. I'm not even a
kidding you're honestly, He's like, I've lost so much, I'm
in so much trouble. I'm like, dude, I would like
kill I would kill a neighbor to be down twelve
grand right now, what are you talking about? So guys
like I was a gambler, like a big gambler, and honestly,

(10:11):
I only grew out of it. It's weird because I
met Jenny when I was twenty seven years old and
we bought a couch. We literally went to Levittz before
it became raymore and flatting and and stopped delivering everybody's
furniture for some odd reason. We're still a month behind
on a sectional. It's a hole to do. But let's
not get distracted. But I went to Levitz when I
was twenty seven. I bought a couch. It was like

(10:31):
six hundred bucks whatever it was, and I was like, Wow,
I'm gonna take this couch home. I'm just gonna sit
on it and it's just gonna be there every night.
I'm gonna have this couch's gonna be comfy. And I
know this sounds crazy to you, but there's a psychology
to gamblers that makes the people prone to addiction more
susceptible to the type of marketing we're discussing. Okay, when
they go online and they say to a little kid, hey,
if you bet five, you could make seventy two fifty Well,

(10:54):
like kid a file, yeah, five bucks, it wins seventy two.
That's awesome. And once in a while one of their
friend's hits and they're like, oh, yeah, wow, Like, you know,
Manny made eighty bucks this weekend. He's got a look
at all the beer money. Man, he's got to hit
his parlay. And that competitive thing sucks a lot of
kids in. That desire to turn no money into a
good amount of money takes kids away from like just

(11:15):
saving their five bucks up every Thursday and all of
a sudden they have fifty in the bank, to trying
to turn that five into fifty instantly. Now they're down five.
So what do they do. They bet more money to
try to get it back, and they lose that, And
what do they do. They keep chasing zero and betting
more money to try to get back to where they
were originally. And the point is it's these very cheap bets,

(11:36):
these very cheap bets that wind up costing people so
much money. But in this instance, the fact that NBA
players Major League Baseball players have been banned for life
because of their involvement in fixing these types of parlay bets.
And the point is they created a culture that made
people more susceptible to avenues of corruption. This one didn't

(12:00):
have to do with the game itself, but I'm telling
you because I care, it's only a matter of time
before they're covering one where it does.

Speaker 8 (12:08):
And I'm mad here in the real world, and I
know what's right or wrong or bullish.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
You're listening to the man who can do it all.

Speaker 9 (12:15):
He can to russell, he can, he can profile, he
what he's got class.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
Fuck there it is Fox Across America with your main man,
Jimmy Phali Stack Deck of a show today Kennedy's Coming by,
Dave Lan Dall's coming by we Haven't had a Diamond
Dave on in a minute. He's out there touring nationally.
He'll get you Alla's dates when he's here. Usually I
text him ahead of time and say like, Hey, what
can I promote on the show today? I mean, it's

(12:49):
one of the coolest things about having a radio show
and a TV show is I will tell you this.
You spend your whole life trying to get one of
these shows when you get into showbiz. And it took
me twenty two years from the day I started comedy
to actually get a Saturday night TV show the second
they handed it to me. Every thought in your body
for twenty two years is like, you know, how do
I do a little bit better? You know? How do

(13:09):
you raise your profile? How do you fix that joke?
You know? How do you tighten that screenplay? You know?
How do you rework this set to make it pop
a little bit harder? Is your opener need to be tweaked?
What can you do? And everything about it is about
improving yourself And the minute they give you one of
these shows, you immediately think of all the people you
can help and maybe that's like a fatal flaw of mine.

(13:29):
Everybody else in show business, like I'm leaving my wife
and buying a speedboat. Let's go pills. Who's got the
bag of pills. Let's go have some fun. You guys
like real loullful Wall Street stuff. I'm the idiot. I
was like, no, I can help people. So the coolest
thing about having one of these shows. The coolest thing

(13:50):
is like you get to bring people on and promote
what they're doing. Like yesterday, Bretteaar was Brett Beare has
a great book out about Teddy Roosevelt. Brett Pear obviously
does not need my help on any The guy is
hosting Special Report. I, for all intents and purposes, am
special ed. That being said, I loved the content in
that Teddy Roosevelt book. I'm only like three chapters and
I started reading it. I loved it so much, like

(14:12):
it was actually exciting to promote. And that's the thing
with the comics you have on. If you hear somebody
on the show like I love these like these people
look great, like Landau is a phenomenal comic. I don't
you know, I don't know how much comedy you consume.
It's a little darker, a little more out there, but
in the best way possible. You know, he doesn't mean
anything by it, and of course he's only a threat
to himself in the end. It's like me, if you

(14:33):
watch me on a Saturday night and think I'm here
to harm anybody besides myself, like you are missing the
whole entire point.

Speaker 10 (14:40):
He's a lousy dad, but he's right.

Speaker 3 (14:42):
So the NBA putting out a statement, by the way,
to build on our earlier conversations, we're talking about broken
people harming stuff. Players are now been put on leave
while this investigation endors. Stephen A. Smith said that this
is actually Trump's revenge. He has a history of feuding

(15:03):
with the NBA. I'man that's the highest paid guy on
a network that just paid a gazillion dollars for NBA rights,
and the season tips off in the last couple of hours,
last couple of days, and now they have this monstrosity
of a gambling segment scandal. What do you think is

(15:25):
happening in the suites ABA at ESPN right now? Like
we got to make this go away, you know, we
don't want to alienate our core base of fans. What
is a significant percentage of our demo, not like Donald Trump.
I've got it, will make it about Trump, and that's
exactly what they did. But I mean, no serious person,

(15:47):
here's the mafia for crime families for NBA families are
fixing poker games and thinks Donald Trump, Like, come on,
stephen A.

Speaker 4 (15:56):
That is absolutely the most ridiculous excuse I have ever
heard in my entire career as a discipline area.

Speaker 3 (16:04):
But I'm just telling you, Okay, on a day of predictions,
because this story is still unfolding, we don't have all
the information. Okay, we know what the FBI has just
told us that this is pretty significant and severe. I
grew up around gambling. Okay, when we hear everything, everything
you needed. I grew up around the most hardest of
hardcore gambling, big cash games, big card bats, big sports bats,

(16:27):
big casinos in Vegas, Atlantic City, a hard core gambling.
I had lines of credit at casinos, okay, competing casinos,
So if you couldn't pay the money on the first
of the month, you could take a marker out from
the casino down the other end of the boardwalk, pay
with their money, and then you have a month to
get it back for real. Like when people ask how
did you wind up driving a cab? This is a

(16:48):
good part of the intro. This is a very significant
portion of the origin story to how I wound up
driving a cab in my thirties. But the point is
there is a psychology to gainambling that is being used
right now to prey upon new business. It's how they
get young kids involved, but it's the same strategy that
gets Pro Bowl players involved. It's yeah, you have this

(17:10):
much money, but think of how much more it could be. Okay,
I mentioned earlier I actually quit gambling when I had
to start buying stuff to build a life with my wife,
Jenny Fala Like, I started giving money to people and
they started giving me things back traditionally until the day
I met my wife. I know this got on silly
to you. It's gonna sound really silly, but I used
to look at the psychology of money and go, hey,

(17:32):
if I buy a couch for six hundred bucks, it's
all it's ever gonna be is a frickin couch. But
if I give this six hundred bucks to a blackjack dealer,
it could turn into twelve thousand dollars. I mean it
could and some days it did, but you didn't hold
on to it for long because the psychology just kind
of preyed upon your brain to go. But what if

(17:53):
this twelve becomes eighty? What are we doing here? And
it's that same strategy that gets people to begin their
sports gambling habits that ultimately ensnares them in bigger, more
problematic things like this. There it is Fox across America
with Jimmy Phylums doing a damn thing in New York City.
Patriot Awards coming up. It is November sixth, It's a

(18:14):
Thursday Night Sean Hannity, my opening act on the road
this summer. Congrats to him. You get the fail abounds.
Next thing you know, your host and the Patriot Awards.
Sean will be holding it down that evening.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
You are so dumb, you are really dumb for free.

Speaker 3 (18:28):
I'm just being silly. But if you want to go
Thursday night, November six you see the show, and it's
the Oscars for people who deserve them. It's not some
closeted gay actor who's playing a cop for a thirty
million dollars pay day. It's a cop who risked his
life to save somebody, or a fireman or a first
responder of some capacity, or a soldier or a military spouse.
The people we honor are enduring real life hardships and

(18:52):
demonstrating real life bravery. Okay, whenever they tell you about
an actor being brave, he gained twenty pounds for this role,
that was relic, right, Jess. Wait, someone paid you to
get fat. That sounds amazing. That's the opposite of one.
What I'm doing. I get paid to basically try not
to look so fat when I'm on TV every weekend.

(19:14):
Du basically what they said to me when they gave
me the show. They're like, all right, try to get
it outder control chubbs. Okay. But the point is the
Patriot Awards, all your Fox News favorites are there, and
it really does turn into a cable news petting zoo.
There's hours of meet and greets where you get to
see us and take pictures and fist bumps and inside
jokes and all that jazz. And then you'll watch a

(19:34):
phenomenal show. You'll see Hannity host it, and you'll see
a lot of the Fox people get up there in
present awards. Really great stuff. So if you're in the area,
tickets for that at Foxnation dot com slash Patriot Awards.
Back to the radio, Jimmy, take off your frickin' sandwich board.
I don't know what you think we're doing over here
on this show. We have Landau coming up, Diamond, Dave,

(19:57):
Landaul Kennedy's gonna be here as well. But the thing
I wanted to talk you about, just to get back
up to speed, is, uh, some new revelations regarding the
government shutdown. Okay, And these two clips are the only
clips you need to know before we move on with
this discussion for the day. But the White House shutdown
no different than the the government shutdown, no different than

(20:17):
the White House renovation on both sides of the argument.
As far as the Democrats are concerned, you are so
full of shit, Okay, And I'm going to tell you why.
First and foremost, Let's start with the shutdown. So Fetterman
was on with Sean Hannity, okay, and Fetterman is talking about,
you know, the situation of people shutting down the government.

(20:38):
What went on all of that jazz, And you know,
he was pretty upfront about the idea of you know,
the Democrats, him being primaried, him being called out for
telling the truth about the situation. Let me give you
Fetterman here clip twenty four.

Speaker 11 (20:56):
I'm not afraid of telling the truth, as I've said,
I'll be the Democrat that refuses to lie to the
base and pretend that this is right. You know, I'm
proud to stand with Israel. I'm proud to say that
we need to secure our border. You know, I think
it's entirely appropriate, appropriate to bomb the Iranian nuclear facilities.

(21:17):
And now I refuse to call are my fellow citizens
as they're fascists, their Nazis or those things.

Speaker 12 (21:25):
I mean.

Speaker 11 (21:25):
I will agree also that we must keep our government open.
And if somebody wants to primary me or the party
wants to vote me out, it's like I'm going to
go down being honest and telling you that this is
wrong to do these kinds of things that I refuse
to do.

Speaker 3 (21:42):
That that is John Fetterman saying his own party is wrong.
We need that kind of courage in politics these days.
You're not going to get a lot of that in
the Republican Party because Trump will squash it like a grape.
But the realit and I get it. But the reality is,

(22:03):
we need more honesty from our politicians because it's gonna
help us as a society. I really mean this the
whole point. There's the whole point of my show. Damn it.
I say this every day. You know, be a Republican,
be a Democrat, just don't be a bleep. And the
revelation is I didn't have a background in politics when
I started here, I was driving a cab. I started

(22:23):
paying paying attention to politics because of Caitlyn Jenner. That's
how I started paying attention to politics. It was a
huge sports fan with a huge gambling problem in my past.
I knew the significance of Bruce Jenner as an athlete. Okay,
so Bruce Jenner transitioning was really really significant. He was
the biggest male athlete in the world. Okay at the

(22:43):
time he did it. This would be like if Serena
Williams were to become a woman. Like I'm being silly straight,
I love you. These are just jokes comedy show, but
stick with me, okay, just so we're all on the
same page. When Bruce Jenner transitioned, I started paying attention
to cable news because I wanted to see the coverage
and would completely blew me away by the fraud of
it all. And the deceptive nature of identity politics is.

(23:05):
They were three or four days in a row that
began with everyone saying, he's the greatest person in the world.
They're so courageous, they're so brave. Here's all the ESPN
courage Awards. Here he is or she is now on
all the talk shows. And then what happened. Okay, at
the end of the very first week of Caitlin Jenner
being the face of the trans movement, she told the

(23:25):
people on the view that she was a Republican and
the immediate Liberal response was get her out, get her
out of here, get her out, And they've never acknowledged
her existence. Again, she was the face of the movement.
But it turns out it's not how you identify, it's
how you vote.

Speaker 1 (23:42):
Bingo.

Speaker 3 (23:42):
And when I saw the fraud, and that was just
the first entree into the fraud of modern politics in
both parties, to be clear. But when I saw that
particular fraud, I started paying attention to this and I
quickly came to realize how many of us fight with
siblings or loved ones or relatives or personal friends over
political differences. When the truth is, politics is not supposed

(24:05):
to be an exercise of me versus you. It's supposed
to be an exercise in US versus the government. We
send them into power, we pay their salaries. They are
supposed to do our bidding. But is that actually happening
day in and day out. Not even close. No, Because
when they make this about well, you know, the Democrats

(24:26):
are evil, and the Democrats go, well, you know, the
Republican's arevil, and we retreat to our corners on either
side of the political island. Think every Democrats a jerk
and every Republicans a nazi. Okay. What that allows our
politicians to do is nothing, not be accountable. Just keep
raising money, keep trading stocks. Yeah, I mean, Trump's getting
a lot done, But Trump is a unicorn. You're not

(24:47):
gonna get another Trump. Okay. For a long time, they've
tried to see to it already, kind of Trump proof
our democracy by arresting the pants off of the guy
shooting at the guy mub shotting the guy raiding his
house with a swat team. Make no mistake about it.
As much as that is an attack on Trump, okay,
it's also a message to any billionaire in the private
sector who has a lot of money and a lot

(25:08):
of good ideas. It's a reminder of them that, hey, man,
you've got boats that you can land helicopters on. Okay,
You've got women okay that you know have boobs in
places we've never even heard of. You know, it's like, huh,
just gorgeous, stacked women, the best food, the best clothes,

(25:29):
the best mattress, the best car, the best place to live.
Do you really want to give up all of that
comfort just to be harassed within an inch of your
life by the opposing political party and any modicum of
authority they can weaponize against you. That's the truth. What
they have done to Trump, even though he won, even
though he gets to write his own end of the story.

(25:49):
Right now, what day did to Trump? I promise you
has horrified the surrounding generation of billionaires from getting into politics. Okay,
could somebody left has a big ego that wants to
do it like a Mark Cuban, Maybe do it? Yeah,
Like I could see him getting into it and having
a bit of a big business background, But it's going
to take him a few cycles because he had so

(26:12):
many bad takes, whether they were heat of the moment,
prisoner of the moment, emotionless takes, or not. He said
a lot of things in this last election to disparage
women who supported Trump. The women Trump surrounded him with
stuff that really matters because the Democrats rely on women
and minorities to win elections. Okay, that's a good thing,
it's nothing wrong with that. But the point is the

(26:32):
Democrats have alienated the living out of both of those groups,
women with the way they've endangered them and stood up
for criminals and migrant rapists and fought for the right
to keep them in the country, and yes, fought for
the right for sex offenders to use the women's room,
fought for the rights for biological men to compete against women,

(26:52):
and of course the minority thing. Forget it. The reason
Latino swung by forty points to Trump is the vast
majority of Latinos in this country came here lead and
resent the hell out of the fact that the Democrats
let ten million, fifteen million people just cut the line.
They resent the hell out of the fact that America
is becoming a lot more like the country they fled
than the one they dreamed of. Moving to So the

(27:14):
Democrats blew that one and Trump got the highest share
of the black vote since Gerald Ford. Give that some
thought for a minute, why, because the black people by
and large came to realize a lot of their voters
did anyway, that although it seemed the Democrats were just
entitled to black support for the last thirty or forty years,
black voters weren't entitled to anything from the Democratic Party.

(27:38):
And you're right, you're right, and you're right. How many
times have you heard the Charles Barkley clip.

Speaker 13 (27:43):
The reason I think the Democratic Party missed a Biden
president Biden is losing black voss. They only care about
black people every four years. They come into our neighborhoods
and say, we're going to make stuff better. We're going
to do this, do this, do this, and then filing us.
People are like hell man other than nobility at Dunkle Basketball.

(28:04):
All my neighborshoods are still the same, our schools are
still the same.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
Look at that, Charles Barklay. Democrats only care about black
people every four years.

Speaker 14 (28:18):
Do you have a problem figuring out whether you're for
me or Trump?

Speaker 3 (28:21):
And you ain't black? And that's just how much they care,
but they take it a step further. Just so I
give you a little bit more about this sort of thing. Okay,
fetterman telling you the truth. These guys shut down the government. Okay,
government has been shut down. They did it. People aren't
getting paid. We're holding you hostage over Obamacare. Okay. The

(28:43):
Democrat whip, the second highest ranking Democrat. I'm sure you've
all seen the viral clip of the last few days
flat out admitted, okay that yeah, people are gonna suffer
if folks are gonna lose money, but this is the
only leverage they have right now. So here we are.
I mean, really think about that. So when you understand

(29:06):
that's the case, you understand that the people are not
the priority the politics are. And a lot of people
see through it. It's one of the rain reasons why
I've given you the CNN clip one hundred times about
how it's not hurting Trump politically because people blame the
Democrats for the shutdown. Okay, let me throw you this
one more time, just so we're all on the same page,
because it's bananas. Okay, here's Kathy Clark. It is clip forty.

Speaker 15 (29:30):
I mean, shutdowns are terrible and of course there will be,
you know, families that are going to suffer. We take
that responsibility very seriously, but it is one of the
few leverage times we have.

Speaker 3 (29:46):
Oh wow, garbage like you just makes me sick. We
take it very very The families are going to suffer,
We take that very very seriously, like not seriously enough
to stop the suffering, not seriously enough to vote to
pay you. I mean, do you understand this is one
of the few leverages we have, meaning our political party

(30:08):
has this as political leverage for our party, So we
know you're suffering. We know the money's not coming in,
but understand the way we say it. Okay, his money's
not coming in for us, Yeah, I mean fundraise and
stuff like that. We got to make money too, girlfriend, You.

Speaker 16 (30:23):
Know that money, money, money, money, money, money, money.

Speaker 3 (30:25):
But have you ever heard a more detached take from
a politician on the harm they caused. But the point
is she's not alone. A lot of them feel that way.
A lot of them feel that way. You're the casualty
for their decisions. That's why I'm on the air. And
you know, whatever the hell Fetterman just said about Yeay
calling out his own party, I've been doing this on
the air for six years, guys, I promise you anybody

(30:46):
who gets on the air and tells you we just
got to own the Libs, just got to own the Libs. Great.
You know what that does gives every single Republican in
Washington a free pass. And I promise you Republicans play
a role in this too. And I promise you, although
Democrats passed Obamacare and past the Obamacare subsidies with the
expiration date that it has, and it is entirely their fault,

(31:08):
don't lose the plot that Republicans were going to fund
a continuing resolution that would have kept up the Joe
Biden's spending levels of the last four years. That is
financial lunacy. So as much as you want to sit
here and go yeah, the further Democrats because they are
wrong and they are holding us hostage straight up. But
it's not like the Republicans have a completely clean slate
on this thing. So I'm telling you because I care.

(31:31):
The point of doing this show is a call out
o the sad because again and again and again, I've
said this so many times, man, Like the Constitution was
not drawn up so Republicans could fight Democrats over who
controls the government. The Constitution was drawn up so the
government doesn't control us. I'll tell you that it was

(31:52):
the tener.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
It's America's number one radio lunch day.

Speaker 3 (31:57):
You get your hands out of my frac.

Speaker 2 (31:59):
Funks as with Jimmy Saylor, my own damn fracks is
Fox across America.

Speaker 3 (32:05):
Jimmy Faling, Kennedy's coming up, Diamond, Dave Landell's coming up
in the next hour. I have such a phenomenal, such
a phenomenal throwback clip from the fine folks over at CNN.
CNN is the worst, Okay, and I'm promoting this now.
We're going to discuss it with Kennedy, We're going to
discuss it with Dave Landau. But you know, everybody in

(32:26):
Washington has worked up over this Trump renovation. It's costing
two hundred million dollars for a ballroom. It's entirely paid
for by private donations, caused the taxpayers nothing well Obama
and a lot of people aren't reporting this this week
in the media happened to spend three hundred and seventy
six million taxpayer dollars on his own White House renovation.

(32:51):
WHOA And by the way, Trump did release images the
White House did of the wrecking ball hitting the east
wing of the of the House, but half of the
photos circulating on Twitter right now are actually still photos
from Obama's renovation. I don't see you doing any better
in the booty department. And I'm going to play you
with CNN clip. It is so phenomenal and it's from

(33:12):
twenty twelve, and it's from CNN covering the construction and
demolition that took place to build his indoor basketball court.
And they're just glowing like this is amazing. The hammers,
the drills, It's like the White House is a veritable
construction site right now. And was anybody howling in the
media about desecration? And this is the problem when you

(33:36):
have journalists who are just at this point activists, just
activists masquer rating as journalists. Journalism in this country is
dead and buried straight up. That's how we wound up
doing four years of the media telling you Biden was
fine and the minuty left office. What did they all do?
They ran right out and wrote best selling books about

(33:58):
the cover up of biden cognitive decline. That's just how
white folks will do.

Speaker 15 (34:03):
You.

Speaker 3 (34:03):
I bring that up because Hunter Biden really funny. Hunter
Biden waited on Kamala's book this week and got a
little upset with her too. Didn't like some of the quotes.
Let it rip. We might as well listen to some
of this. Wo here it is. This is clip forty five.

(34:28):
I didn't read it. I really didn't. I just really disappointed.
I've just heard some of the things. I've tried to
block it out.

Speaker 14 (34:36):
Yeah, yeah, you know, I don't know the I don't know, man,
I guess I have to get everybody out there.

Speaker 3 (34:48):
I know I heard some of the things I said.

Speaker 1 (34:51):
Don't like.

Speaker 14 (34:52):
I know, you to Temmy, just trying to get me
going here, and I think that I think more than
more than anything, I just just like, wow.

Speaker 3 (35:01):
Like what.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
I don't.

Speaker 14 (35:09):
You know, it's too easy to like just to fall
back on that, you know, the you know, the true quote.

Speaker 3 (35:15):
But I don't even know whether he said it or not.

Speaker 14 (35:16):
If you want a dog in Washington, you know, in DC,
get a dog. I mean, if you want a friend
in Washington, get a dog.

Speaker 3 (35:24):
Hunter's a dirt bag. I love one. Hunter pivots to
the loyalty speech. The guy banged his brother's widow and
then knocked up a stripper behind her back. He got
his brother's widow addicted to smoking crack and then knocked
up a stripper behind her back. Some of the most
Jerry Springer stuff you've ever heard. But a Hunter saying,

(35:45):
you know, I've heard these quotes about Kamala, so disloyal. Okay,
the truth should not be disloyal if you're a decent
person running a clean administration. Okay. The truth should not
be framed as disloyal by a report if the reporter's
been covering the story honestly. Also, But that's what we
learned here is that nobody is well. I don't read

(36:07):
the news fake because it's in the editor. Then let
it come out.

Speaker 2 (36:12):
From everywhere USA. It's foxing across America with Jimmy Fayla.

Speaker 3 (36:17):
Oh Girl back in action for a big hour, Diamond,
Dave Landau coming by the K train, rolling into the station.
Kennedy's going to be here as well, to talk about
this battleover White House renovations and government shutdowns and the
leverages and the cost to you the.

Speaker 17 (36:35):
Taxpayer, thanks the government witnesses.

Speaker 3 (36:37):
As a wise woman once said, It's Fox across America
with Jimmy Falalo rolling on middle hour of a three
hour audio masterpiece sponsored by the fine folks at Prevagen.
Prevagen is for your brain and the big updates as
we get underway in this hour, as the NBA has
been involved in a massive, massive gambling scandal that ensnares
four teams for alleged Italian mind of your families, at

(37:01):
least thirty one arrests that we know of, and it
is an ongoing situation we continue to monitor and involves
the Portland Trailblazers, the Miami Heat. Then somehow the Knicks,
so far as I can tell, are not involved. So
that's good. The Knicks have brought enough shame on the
family over the last three decades in this town. So
we got that going for us, and what you have

(37:23):
going for you in this hour is just another talk.
Hour of talk, just talk. You could be a part of.
You don't have to agree with it. You don't have
to vote the way I do. You don't have to
be attracted to what I'm ann tried. None of it matters.
We say, be a Republican, be a Democrat, just don't
be a there you go, there you go. I say
it every day. People who listen to this show consistently,

(37:44):
are like, stop saying it already. I mean, come on
with the friggin's why do you do things like that.
You're like a crazy person. They go Kevin Memi on me,
they put on their big pants, they start yelling and screaming.
But as we get underway in this hour, all the
element screaming is being done in regard to the White
House renovation project, which is it's so phenomenal. I mean,

(38:04):
we a lot of us have the same takes on this,
which is, you know, the Democrats gave us this lecture about,
you know, we're preserving the history of the White House.
I played you the freakin Joe Scarborough one. It's so
funny because when it comes to, you know, preserving history.
Do you know what the Democrats spent the last ten
years doing in this country tearing down statues. Oh, we've

(38:27):
got to preserve the history. Yeah, they're so concerned with
preserving the history that Teddy Roosevelt, one of our greatest
Americans who ever lived, had his statue taken down at
the Museum of Natural History that he founded. I mean,
come on, Democrats.

Speaker 1 (38:45):
Thank you for the education gentlemen.

Speaker 3 (38:47):
We've just received a PhD in stupidity. He founded the museum. Okay,
he is the face of the museum. But they took
down the statue. Imagine you go to Graceland and they're like,
no more Elvis. Now, we don't talk about that. Here
just happened to be a really tacky house, a lot
of rhinestones, a lot of peanut butter and banana sandwiches.
Who lived here? Shut your mouth and talk about who

(39:09):
lived here? What's wrong with you? And that was always
the inherent flaw of Cancel culture, as you were trying
to just erase portions of our history. Yes, we know
that Americans in twenty twenty five don't have the same
values as Americans in nineteen twenty five or eighteen twenty five.
We have evolved as a people, but do you know
why we evolved as a people because of people like them?

Speaker 1 (39:33):
Bingo Man Bingo.

Speaker 3 (39:35):
Meaning Teddy Roosevelt isn't perfect. He was just the best
guy at the time. That's how the ball moved forward.
Past presidents don't necessarily share today's social values. But the
reason our country evolved in that era was because of
these great men. Okay, And that's the fool's errand of
tearing down statues. You're supposed to just leave the statue
up and maybe add a second plaque that goes although

(39:58):
he did all these things and was considered great at
the time, some of these views of aged poorly by
modern standards. That being said, history shows him as the
one who won this war, or won this election, or
invented this thing. That's the point of the statues. They're
there to commemorate a moment in time. They're not there
to line up with every single thing we've evolved to today.

(40:20):
But when it comes to preservation, I think Josh Holly
had a great clip, and I'll give you more of Yeah,
let's hear Holy first. Then i'll give you the Democrats
clip twelve. Well, just uprooting the this is an iconic building.

Speaker 16 (40:32):
I will just say this. I made this point yesterday
that I hear all of a sudden from my liberal
friends that they're very concerned about our history.

Speaker 3 (40:39):
Really, these are the same people.

Speaker 16 (40:41):
Who tore down every statue they could get their hands
on in the last four years. Christopher Columbus, Thomas Jefferson,
Theodore Roosevelt. They didn't have any concern for history then
now all of a sudden, I go the facade.

Speaker 3 (40:53):
Of the East Wing is iconic.

Speaker 16 (40:54):
I don't give me a break, I mean give me
a break.

Speaker 3 (40:58):
And he's telling you the truth. The Democrats listen to
this Democrat montage. This is phenomenal. And again, if you
are teaching a course, a college course in performative outrage,
every one of these kids, if this is a thesis
statement performative outrage, that's the college course. Every one of
these kids is getting a four point zero GPI clip thirteen.
Donald Trump wants to be okay.

Speaker 18 (41:20):
It's the best explanation for everything he's been.

Speaker 3 (41:22):
Doing just in recent days.

Speaker 9 (41:23):
Just look at what he's doing right now to the
White House.

Speaker 19 (41:26):
It does to me when I look at it quickly,
look like a Kim Jong un propaganda video right of
you know, when he does the nukes on Washington, whatever
it might be, there's something disturbing about it.

Speaker 9 (41:36):
This unprecedented moment. As an app metaphor Trumps demolishing the
White House as he also demolishes our country's constitutional norms
and rule of law.

Speaker 3 (41:45):
Get perfect metaphor for how President Trump is trying.

Speaker 9 (41:48):
To just bulldoze his potle of foes.

Speaker 20 (41:50):
I'll tell you what I don't care about.

Speaker 1 (41:51):
I don't care about that damn ball room.

Speaker 3 (41:55):
Life is hard, but it's harder when you're stupid, because
WHOOPI Gold also goes on to lie about that boardroom.
But back to the beginning. Trump's a king, it's Kim
Jong un stuff. It's a metaphor. It's destroying the White
House like he's destroying our rule of law. Except there's
only one small problem, you guys, Barack Obama did it
too law. And whereas Trump's renovation costs two hundred million

(42:21):
to private donors, Obama's renovation costs three hundred and seventy
six million to you, to you, the taxpayer. Here is
CNN in an unearthed clip from twenty twelve covering the
Obama renovation, which by the way, included the demolition of
a building at the time. Notice if and it's gonna

(42:43):
be subtle, notice if you just you catch a slight
difference in the way they approached the more expensive Obama
construction versus the cheaper Trump construction. Here does clip eleven
sounds like they're building another wing to the White House.

Speaker 21 (42:57):
But we appreciate your keeping your Imaginday, that's gonna happen
for the next two years. All of the banging, the jackhammering,
the dust, the confusion, the noise of all places to
do construction is happening right here the front lawn of
the White House. It's a four year renovation project estimated
costs three hundred and seventy six million dollars.

Speaker 3 (43:20):
Did you hear that? It's a four year renovation project
estimated cost three hundred and seventy six million dollars And
by the way, it went over budget.

Speaker 9 (43:36):
We want muha.

Speaker 3 (43:38):
None did anyone in the media, anyone crack down, yell
and scream demolition, death of America? All that. No, And
that's the front right now. It's why no one takes
the media seriously. This is all pretend, performedive outrage. And
here is Whoopy Goldberg, by the way, just flat out

(43:59):
lying about who's paying for this Clip fourteen.

Speaker 12 (44:01):
This will also be decided, the part that really tackles me.
It's going to be decided by some of the same
Justice Department lawyers who worked with him on these past cases.
So Americans, the question is are you on board with
all of this?

Speaker 3 (44:19):
This is like a cash grab.

Speaker 12 (44:21):
And your taxes are probably going to be paying for
that tech I'm going I mean, it's kind of cookie.

Speaker 3 (44:30):
Oh whoopee, that is a fact check false. I mean
seriously though, Okay, taxpayers aren't paying for it. You're not
on the hook for this. And by the way, guys,
I know it's hard to fathom. I know it is,
but we're going to have a Democrat be president someday
in our lifetimes. You must be crazy.

Speaker 10 (44:49):
What are you going to stop believing in something that
isn't true?

Speaker 16 (44:52):
No?

Speaker 3 (44:53):
Stop, I'm telling you it seems impossible now given the
state of the current Democrat Party and they're you know,
they're activist in the media that are just laundering the
Democrat talking points as as you know, in place of
actual legitimate news programming. There will come a day in
your lifetime in mind when a Democrat will be president again,

(45:14):
have you ever had a check out? Now, I'm telling
you stop, it's gonna happen. And when it does, do
you know what they're gonna do. They're all going to
use the ballroom. Is the media gonna go how dare you? Hell? No,
this is an injustice, this is an outrage. No, they're
gonna shut up and use the ballroom. Okay, just like

(45:36):
they shut up and use the swimming lane. JFK put in,
It's like they shut up and use the bowling alley.
Richard Nixon put in, just like they shut up when
Harry Truman gutted the White House to the studs, the
whole entire thing and redid it. Okay, just like they
shut up when Obama literally spent twice as much money

(45:58):
as Trump did for the same level of demolition to
build a basketball court. So you understand what you're watching
play out in real time this week, and Dana Perino
had the best summation of this on The Five yesterday.
She goes, somebody has to tell Democrats you don't need
to swing at every pitch. Sometimes you can just let
Trump do something and have no reaction at all. Sometimes

(46:20):
you can let Trump do something and not pretend it's
an existential threat to our democracy in our White House
and the rule of law, and we're all going to die.
Sometimes a ballroom is just a ballroom. We're just gonna
have a party, you understand. It's like if Trump says
every kid gets free ice cream, kids are excited. Kids
are excited. But you know what the Democrats would say

(46:41):
a minute later, Well, you know Hitler liked ice cream,
and you know what happened to those kids?

Speaker 2 (46:45):
Yeah, all the show that's got listeners on Lockdown.

Speaker 4 (46:52):
People that are from prisons, people that are from mental institutions.

Speaker 3 (46:57):
In a sum twenty minutes into the broadcast hour. That
can only mean one thing to the American people. Here
it comes.

Speaker 21 (47:06):
It's time for producer Mikey's headline Highway.

Speaker 10 (47:10):
Your virgin who can't drive?

Speaker 3 (47:13):
Five stories from a man with two passions.

Speaker 17 (47:16):
My hobbies are fast cars and fastwind.

Speaker 3 (47:20):
Stop there, it is Mikey's headline Highway. Let the race begin.
Producer Max still under the weather, I know, is there?

Speaker 10 (47:36):
I am?

Speaker 3 (47:36):
Is there a flu going around massage pallers in Mintown, Manhattan.
I don't know what's going on.

Speaker 10 (47:41):
I didn't know he was so allergic to arsenic Rebecca.
That's how I got here.

Speaker 3 (47:46):
Trying to gain a bigger foothold on the show. We'll
Rebecca forget it is here, Hey girl, semi serious day
of headlines Josh Spotify. I don't know if you saw this.
Number five is running ice recruitment ads between songs. I
didn't see this, and they're saying it doesn't violate company policy.
So a lot of musicians are upset, Josh, you know,
because Ice is literally deporting people in an ad after

(48:09):
you download Hit the Road Jack, you know, like God.

Speaker 18 (48:13):
I mean, I understand why some people could be upset,
but you know from Spotify's perspective, you know the person
that sold that at time, cash is cash, you know, Amen,
I'm talking.

Speaker 5 (48:22):
So I'm sorry by the premium of Spotify if you
don't want to hear those comers, if.

Speaker 3 (48:25):
You don't want to hear the ads fixed to those
are back of telling these migrants they need they need
extra money for streaming services, and now the Democrats are
gonna fund that too. Now I've got to pay for
a migrant to hear Motley cruising Home, Sweet Home every
time Homan kicks him out of the country. I'm gonna
know on this, Mikey. Isn't this the same as like
when they were pulling their music over vaccine stuff? Do
you remember when they were met at Grogan oh Yah

(48:48):
and Joni Mitchell pulled their music off Spotify. Most women
listening to Joni Mitchell think Spotify is a hand cream.
They have no they don't even know what it was. Mikey,
they're still.

Speaker 10 (48:57):
Trying to figure out iTunes.

Speaker 3 (48:59):
Yes, so isn't this great? This is just grandstanding, right Mikey? Yeah,
But has anyone asked bad Bunny what he thinks of this? Oh, Mikey,
kick hornets nest. Mikey, we have enough sports leagues in
trouble today without picking a fight with the friggin NFL.
And if you don't believe me, asked the NBA. All right,
let's move on. The White House responded to yesterday's closing

(49:20):
story about Jensaki Bousha Van's looks like a hostage. He
wants to get out of her marriage. Here's White House
Comms director Stephen schun Okay, writing, she must be transferring
her own personal issues onto others. She is a dumb
ass who has no comprehension of the truth and has
to overcompensate for her lack of talent by saying untrue things.

(49:43):
Stephen Chunk continued to circle back on that moron, referring
to her infamous catchphrase during the Biden White House.

Speaker 10 (49:49):
Who got my Mom's phone number?

Speaker 5 (49:51):
Does sound like a Facebook comments like the meanest it
is so dirty out there now, I can't even take it.

Speaker 3 (49:57):
Duran politics had like everything began with like, well, the
American people don't want this, and now they're like this
whiskey breast horse.

Speaker 12 (50:04):
Like whoa for calling each other like fat bitches?

Speaker 1 (50:07):
It's crazy.

Speaker 10 (50:08):
I'm like, what dive bar am I at right now?

Speaker 3 (50:10):
Amen? But Josh, there is clearly a double standard when
it comes to the treatment of conservative women, is there not?
I mean, yeah, most certainly.

Speaker 18 (50:17):
And you know this is quite a clapback there by
Chunk Stephen Chung going.

Speaker 3 (50:22):
Hard roundhouse kick to Sake not good. Mikey Jensaki comes
up to you to bar okay, and she says, you know,
you know the answer. He's taking down the redhead. Mikey's
still got it. Everybody does, he does. He's still got it.
He said that the Josh off the air. Oh you're
a fan of Sake, you know.

Speaker 1 (50:48):
I can go now.

Speaker 3 (50:49):
The thing I ever heard quest story number three. Snoop
Dogg's sold out, caving to the woke mob pressure. So
you remember a month ago we ran a story Josh
about Snoop Dogg where he was watching a car too
on Netflix that had a same sex couple and he goes,
I don't want to have to explain that s to
my grandkid. I just want to watch it. Well, lo
and behold, Josh. He has just recorded a new song

(51:09):
for his cartoon doggieland is the name of the show
called Love is Love, where he champions alternative lifestyle marriages.

Speaker 10 (51:17):
Wait, we're really offended by what Snoop Dogg is saying.

Speaker 3 (51:19):
I shouldn't it just not matter anyway?

Speaker 5 (51:22):
He was like the king of marijuana when marijuana was
still a legal He was a rapper.

Speaker 3 (51:27):
He charged with murder.

Speaker 10 (51:28):
Yeah, yeah, but you know, same sex. Now we have
a problem.

Speaker 3 (51:31):
Josh, tell me this. Do you think Snoop Dogg came
around to recording this song via some Netflix stop stock
options offered to him by Martha Stewart.

Speaker 18 (51:39):
I'm sure there's some financial implications. I mean, he just
somebody wanted to do a collaboration with him. He doesn't know,
so he's like, I'll just come in and do a verse.
It doesn't matter what.

Speaker 3 (51:48):
Mikey. If Snoop Dogg walks up to you, I'm kidding. Stop,
we move on. Number. Dakota Johnson. Dakota Johnson, Oh God
out here. Dakota Johnson. Her red flags with men, she
was asked in an interview show. Okay, she said, men
who wear flip flops in public are her biggest You're

(52:10):
not a fan of the flip flop in public. I mean,
I'm not wearing flip flops in public, but I get
that as a hang up.

Speaker 10 (52:15):
Do you want to look at a man's toes?

Speaker 3 (52:17):
No, I always.

Speaker 5 (52:18):
Mike's toes hanging out when you're on the subway.

Speaker 3 (52:22):
Okay, then it doesn't sound like it according to Rebecca Mikey. No,
those aren't flip flops, disgusting shoes. Yeah. The point is
nobody wants to see your feet except for the people
who like they'll pay all kinds of cash. It's a
very niche market, I think, is what we're trying to say.

Speaker 10 (52:41):
Here isn't here Today.

Speaker 3 (52:43):
Max is Max got a sale at two for one
on pinky toes that he couldn't resist. He got the
group on and we moved on. Okay, the number one story,
We've covered it already. It's not often that the show
top or makes Mikey's headline highway, but we're well within
our rights to do it today. It's the NBA. Everybody
can arrests it. Thirty people arrested gambling scandal.

Speaker 5 (53:03):
This feels like a you know, a movie that a
Draft Kings would make, like a Good Fellow sequel or
something fun.

Speaker 3 (53:09):
You know, it's funny about that, like your heart's are
the right place. But they don't actually want this movie made, no,
because their culture is what led to this. Yes, so
they're just trying to act like, oh, it's not a
big deal. And you know what sucks about the where
we live in Josh which is also the best thing.
There were so many good Draft King jokes about this,
I know Brian Brenberg texted me the story at like
eleven fifty or what have ten to fifty? What I

(53:31):
write a Draft Kings joke, And the minute I opened
up my phone to see if it posted, it was
like one hundred good ones. I was like, I missed
this one. You just got to take the Llen movie.

Speaker 5 (53:38):
I did.

Speaker 10 (53:39):
I did it real quick.

Speaker 5 (53:39):
I was like, everyone's gonna make the show.

Speaker 10 (53:42):
Got to do it quick.

Speaker 3 (53:42):
Yep.

Speaker 18 (53:42):
As soon as you go over to ESPN. During the
coverage of this story was sponsored by ESPN.

Speaker 3 (53:47):
We're gonna show that on our show tomorrow night. I
saw the clip of ESPN literally talking about a gambling
scandal with a gambling ad at the bottom of the screen.

Speaker 9 (53:56):
You can't in the world series.

Speaker 3 (53:58):
Tomorrow night again show Thomas, And if everybody behaves, I'm
going to tell you the greatest O Tawny story ever
when we come back. I was at a dinner last night.
Wr will melt your heart. It involves dogs and for
once they all lived. There you go, we made it.
Oh girl? Is Fox across America with Jimmy Phalam fired

(54:21):
up to get this next guest back on the show.
You know him and love him as comedy's sexiest man.
He is on the road right now, opiating the masses
with his wit and wisdom. I am talking about the
lovely and talented Diamond Dave Landaut.

Speaker 9 (54:33):
Hey girl, Hey baby, how you doing.

Speaker 3 (54:37):
I gotta tell you, Diamond Dave, I've been going through withdrawals. Man.
I don't think we've done this in like two weeks.

Speaker 9 (54:42):
It's been way too long. I know that's what two
weeks feels about, right. I missed your touch the last
exactly I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (54:48):
The last time we spoke, you said you were getting
ready to organize a Thursday night poker game with your
NBA friends. That's correct. Here we are two weeks, thirty
one arrests later, a couple of bucks in a hole.
You know, these things happen.

Speaker 9 (55:04):
Yeah, I figure, since gambling's legal, why not make it
illegal over at my house?

Speaker 10 (55:09):
You know.

Speaker 3 (55:09):
It's like, it's so funny. Though, as an Italian myself,
there was a part of me that felt a little
pride when I heard there were four crime families involved
in like a two hundred zillion dollar gallery. I was like,
we still got it, baby, you know it's funny.

Speaker 9 (55:24):
Yeah, I'm actually half Italian and I spent the day
with my son looking at old mob hangouts in Detroit.
Yeah he's not in school and he's ten, so it's
time that he learns.

Speaker 3 (55:34):
Yeah, and then.

Speaker 9 (55:36):
That story came up. So I feel the same way.
I have the Italian and Irish in me. So there's
two there's two people that were never hoodlums.

Speaker 3 (55:45):
Too funny. Well, the one thing we did figure out
is how all of these Christopher Columbus statues managed to
stay standing the last five years. It looked for a
while they're like they were all gone. But if the
mob's still big enough to do two hundred million dollars
in fixed the NBA poker games. Columbus is gonna be
a okay.

Speaker 9 (56:04):
Oh, he's fine. I'm happy they're still so active.

Speaker 22 (56:06):
You know.

Speaker 9 (56:07):
I began to worry that they weren't around as much anymore. Yeah,
and I because they really should clean.

Speaker 3 (56:12):
Up New York uh huh.

Speaker 9 (56:13):
And we've discussed it many times. So I'm just excited
that they're they're back in business or still have been.

Speaker 8 (56:20):
You know.

Speaker 3 (56:20):
You know, it's funny because like it's half sounds like
a joke, But people who don't live in New York
City don't know, maybe don't know this mafia neighborhoods are
the cleanest neighborhoods in the city because they don't put
up with it. They don't put up with the petty
street crime and the vagrancy and the hookers and everything
like that, and they actually run a really clean slate.
Now you might argue again some of the things they're
doing behind doors, okay, but in public it's fine.

Speaker 23 (56:44):
Oh.

Speaker 9 (56:44):
I lived in benson Hurst, Brooklyn when I first moved there,
and you could tell the people in the area were
still worried about what had happened to them before. Yeah,
and it's the truth, though, I mean, look at when
when Gottis and everybody had in New York. Do you
think Zaran mom does he would be winning an election.

Speaker 3 (57:01):
Possibly, I don't think he'd be running in one, Like
I truly don't think he'd be running in one.

Speaker 9 (57:12):
I don't think he'd be running with stable legs.

Speaker 3 (57:16):
Not good.

Speaker 9 (57:17):
There's no way that they'd be like soda nine to
eleven guys, gonna.

Speaker 3 (57:21):
That's exactly what they'd be calling him in a post
September eleventh world. The idea that New York's about to
elect a mayor, Like if you went back to two
thousand and one and said they're going to elect a
pro Hamas mayor who literally literally talks favorably about the
Intafada and won't disarm Hamas and that's who we're like,
it is insane, Like to your earlier point, he just

(57:43):
wouldn't be running, he'd be limping. He'd be limping for office.
Best case scenario.

Speaker 9 (57:47):
No, it's staggering even seeing like I'm in Detroit, so
we're not far from Dearborn.

Speaker 3 (57:52):
We're a stone's throw from our own problem.

Speaker 9 (57:54):
Yeah, but I mean diversity where stones throw from diversity,
But looking at New York. It's like, you can't be
serious about this, like, oh, we're gonna have you know,
everything's free. You know, we have free groceries, we have
you know, free train we have free subway rides, we
have free Palestine.

Speaker 3 (58:13):
It's all, it's all free. And of course we have
the Mayor's mansion on the upper Middle East side.

Speaker 9 (58:22):
Yeah, it's it's the one where it's the one where
they just built on top of it so it looks
like a palace, but they still pay the same taxes.

Speaker 3 (58:32):
So I wanted to it on this gambling thing for
two more minutes. It's two guys who've been pretty upfront
with our audience about vices and are you know, struggles
with them and stuff like that. Okay, what the NBA
is doing, what the NHL is doing, what the NFL
is doing, Major League Baseball is doing, is they're praying
on a psychology of a lot of young people by

(58:52):
making these like betting offers like here's five bucks might
win you ninety bucks, and the five sounds very inconsequential.
So it's a way to take a kid with no
money and get him into gambling. But the point is
they've created so many cheap forms of betting and quick
payday opportunities that don't necessarily work out. But what they've
created in the process is so many avenues to corrupt

(59:14):
sports through gambling. And it was only a matter of
time before it went from the game where a pitcher
on the Indians is banned for life for fixing balls
and strikes, and it's only a matter of time before
guys in that position who don't necessarily want to fix
the sport they're playing and get banned, but venture into
something sports adjacent like gambling. And couldn't you argue that

(59:35):
all of this incessant drumbeat if you gotta go gamble
probably created a world where a guy like Chauncey Billups
was prone to go do it in an illegal poker game.

Speaker 9 (59:44):
Absolutely, I do. The problem is, look, I personally feel
you should keep gambling to Atlantic City and you should
keep it to Vegas, Vegas. And that's the thing is,
we've now seen an addiction take over the country. We've
seen it affect everybody. People think they're gonna make money
on parlays, hysterical, it's just people losing right and left.

(01:00:05):
I'm not surprised that this is this seems more legit
than half the casino. This is more legit, I should say,
than any Indian casino because they don't have to be regulated.
Oh that's fascinating stuff, Dave. It's true, not even being great.
I'm not trying to. But you know I've been in
India casino. I know the odds by the amount of
money that left my pockets.

Speaker 3 (01:00:29):
That's pretty funny. Well, Dave Landau taking a swing at
Indian casinos. He's gonna be on Elizabeth Warren kill list
now wait to get his last appearance on the show.
That's not good. You can't even tell you, Yeah, go ahead,
poison my pow wow. Show. Can't even can't even tell
gambling jokes anymore. The Senate will come after you. What

(01:00:50):
a time to be alive. So I do want to
see you.

Speaker 9 (01:00:54):
I just want to see real gambling commercials. That's what
I want to see. Just a guy looking at his
bank account and his and he starts the car and
then you just see the door go down, just says Dramkings.

Speaker 3 (01:01:09):
It's a guy who's in a Yankees jersey with his
face painted with a foam number one finger. But it
transitions into him putting on a blonde wig, powdering his
Adam's apple and doing something else with that number one
finger to get his money back. Next thing, you know,
he's using the finger to flag down cars in the
red light district.

Speaker 9 (01:01:28):
Just putting on fake breasts that have the turtleneck attached
so it covers all of it, and just heading on
down to the docks.

Speaker 3 (01:01:38):
That's so funny, eating.

Speaker 9 (01:01:40):
Dinner with his family while looking just filled with shame.

Speaker 3 (01:01:44):
Use code word Stiletto's for a profit boost on your parlay. Yeah,
it's bad, it's bad. We're talking to Dave Landau and
I have to tell I have to talk to my
son about this, like every day, because every sporting event
you watch is like if your bet five dollars, you
could win four hundred and seventy eight dollars. But what
are you doing. You're betting like a twelve twelve. Things
have to happen successfully for you to make money. And

(01:02:07):
you know, for every you know, one kid who does
make money, there's ten million who don't. But that one million,
that one kid winning, is worth one hundred other kids trying.
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 9 (01:02:17):
Oh yeah, I mean that's that's part I mean, you
had an issue with it, and you know, you know
how it is, and it's important to talk to him
about it, just in case he has that gene. But
I remember I had a guy he you know, they
ran it was off of eight Mile. They ran a
lot of numbers and they played a lot of stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:02:34):
With book in.

Speaker 9 (01:02:35):
My buddy would go, yeah, give me five bucks. I
won a lot a few times. Then I just stopped
because I'm like, why do you guys, why did you
guys move from Vegas? And his dad had successfully knocked
over a casino. Oh god, they could never prove it,
but he was blackballed from Vegas. Could never show his
face again. God no, yeah, none. Kilopp became Disneyland. But

(01:02:55):
when it was like the star dust and everything, he.

Speaker 3 (01:02:57):
Was not allowed. That's amazing, all right, Listen, I'm just
going to piggyback off that I had a buddy in
tenth grade in high school whose dad was a bookie
and I didn't know that. So I had called up
the kid to hang out. And you know this, back
in the day, you called the house a para might
answer whatever the case may be. So I goes already
there and he goes, yeah, this is already. Who's this?

(01:03:18):
I go Jimmy. He goes, oh, Jimmy, tough one on
the next last night, What do you like tonight? And
I go, oh, I think I'm looking for Artie Junior maybe,
and he goes, oh, hold on a second, and he
just starts screaming at his kid, you can't tie up
the phone right now. And I didn't know what that
meant till like two years later when I was legitimately
calling in bets and I was like, oh, by the way,
Artie's dad was running numbers. That's amazing. Yes.

Speaker 9 (01:03:38):
Two years later and you're like, I need to speak
to Artie Senior. I got some numbers.

Speaker 3 (01:03:44):
Yeah, I called lady. He answered. I'm like, hey, can
you put your dad on the phone. Actually get out
of here? Where are you telling jokes? Right now? Where's
Diamond Dave in the world?

Speaker 9 (01:03:54):
This weekend tonight through Saturday, I'd be at Mark Ridley's
Comedy Castle in Royal Loake, Michigan.

Speaker 3 (01:03:59):
Damn right you wall Royal Oak, Michigan. That's rat. I
was there playing the music venue I've never played. I know,
I've never played the Comedy Castle, though it is revered and.

Speaker 9 (01:04:09):
It's one of the best clubs in the country. And yeah,
the music for the Music Hall is amazing too.

Speaker 3 (01:04:14):
Well. Let me just jump in though, because the reason
that the Comedy Castle's on my mind is last Saturday
I was in. It was like five six in the afternoon.
Lincoln had just gone out for that he went for
the night, and I was watching Kevin Meanie sets on
YouTube and he was at the Comedy Castle. So it's so,
it's so funny. I don't know that you're going to
do what we are the world closer.

Speaker 1 (01:04:37):
Probably not.

Speaker 9 (01:04:38):
Yeah, I'm probably not going to be talking about my
beard the whole time.

Speaker 3 (01:04:43):
I don't care. I don't care Meanie killed me. I
love meeting, so I would tell you a great Meanie
story since I got here. Yeah me, I was opening
for Meanie in Roswell, Georgia. The club was called the
Funny Farm, and I remember that was brief. Yes, Mark Show,
the kid who I think his family owned it, and
he would see it and he would open the show,

(01:05:04):
you know, in an effort to make things calm and
smooth for the other comedians. He would open by getting
a drunk girl to give him a lap dance on stage.
Rich would often just ruin any pretext of an organized
comedic performance, and it was just a disaster. But anyway,
he was. I was down there with Mini to open
for him, and after a show we went out and

(01:05:27):
had a particularly debauched night that ended with him deciding
he was going to do a stand up set at
a waffle house at three thirty in the morning. And
I don't know what Mini rolled on. I don't know
like what the vice was, but there's something that must
make you want to do comedy at three thirty in
the morning for unwilling patrons who were just eating waffles,

(01:05:48):
you know, letting off some steam after a night of
turning tricks or whatever the hell you do. You know,
already fighting. Yeah, they're already fighting. The words don't even
taken place yet. But the point is he was so
out of it. He did forty five minutes of what
you'd expect him to do on stage, and it had
dawned on me, as a guy that was very new

(01:06:10):
to comedy that the only mechanism I had to potentially
get him off stage was to light him. So I
held up a cell phone and lit him, and he
literally gave me the nod did a few minutes of
a closer and left. It was insane and just went
home and I, you know, never hung out with him again.
I know. The next time I saw I saw him again,
I was like twelve years later. He had come out

(01:06:30):
and it was a hole to do. But apparently I
watched him wrestle with coming out at waffle house that night.

Speaker 9 (01:06:36):
Yeah, yeah, I think that's something happened in the bathroom.
He had to forget about. Like I I when he
came out. It was so funny because I'm like, he's
doing it on the tonight show. I wonder how he's
going to handle it. He just comes out, he goes.
I had to tell my wife, hey, honey, I'm home.

Speaker 3 (01:06:52):
Oh that was he had a great fit. He goes,
I told my wife, I'm gay. She goes, you are,
and I go, who do anything decorated? This place? Funny
the lake?

Speaker 9 (01:07:06):
Really, he really was one of the best.

Speaker 3 (01:07:09):
I loved him. He was the best club act that
I ever watched on the way up in terms of
like a guy wrecking the room. It was a lot
of musical theater. It was a lot of absurdities, you know,
Oh yeah, jokes about his daughter, Jean Vinet out to lunch.
A bit of a dark act, but in all the
best ways. It was great. But if they're going to

(01:07:29):
the Comedy Castle, they're seeing Diamond, Dave Landaut, that's amazing.

Speaker 9 (01:07:33):
That's right all weekend. And yeah, Mark has always had
good taste in comics, especially club comics like that. He
had all every one of those guys, John Pinnett. His
whole wall is just lined with every famous person. He
showed me a check, he wrote Seinfeld in nineteen seventy.

Speaker 3 (01:07:48):
Nine, that's a real thing. Yeah, that's crazy, but.

Speaker 9 (01:07:52):
Really Yeah, And to be honest, it's not off from
what you make when you start headlining.

Speaker 3 (01:07:57):
Now. Yeah, like talk about an industry for.

Speaker 9 (01:08:00):
The money doesn't go up. Now I realized that's it.

Speaker 3 (01:08:03):
When you hit a point, yeah, but for a long
time you're going Wow.

Speaker 9 (01:08:06):
So I made in twenty fifteen what Seinfeld made in
nineteen seventy nine.

Speaker 3 (01:08:13):
True, Like when you pass at the Comic Strip, you're
getting paid for that set exactly what they were getting
paid when they built the place.

Speaker 9 (01:08:21):
Right, except your cab ride you lose thirty dollars.

Speaker 3 (01:08:24):
Except yeah, except Eddie Murphy was nineteen and it was
four dollars to get downtown. You're thirty five and it's
seventy eight.

Speaker 9 (01:08:33):
Bucks and someone listening to the crowd to discover Eddie Murphy.

Speaker 3 (01:08:40):
The only people in your crowd were other comics waiting
to get on.

Speaker 9 (01:08:44):
Exactly, or eight Hondurans who didn't understand the language.

Speaker 3 (01:08:48):
That's all you got. That's funny. When they were buying
the tickets in Times Square, they thought they were visas.
They came. They come up there looking for citizenship. Diamond Dave,
you still got the fastball man, good luck in Michigan
this weekend. Thank you, my friend, thank you for having
us an he's time I miss your ready boo.

Speaker 1 (01:09:08):
Yes, sir, there he.

Speaker 3 (01:09:09):
Goes the great Diamond Dave Land out there we go
back bang there it is Fox Across America with Jimmy
Fail a quick hit with the Lovely Ladies, a Fox
New Saturday Night, Leo, Annie Jen back in the studio.
The crowd goes wild.

Speaker 6 (01:09:21):
We don't.

Speaker 3 (01:09:22):
We didn't mike the crowd today, so you don't hear it.
But there there why, I mean, it's a bad situation
out there, okay, So normally we might even do a
longer segment about what's coming up on Fox New Saturday
Night this weekend. But as it turns out, we don't know.

Speaker 10 (01:09:35):
We're not sure.

Speaker 23 (01:09:36):
If you listen to this segment every week, you're starting
to get a theme.

Speaker 20 (01:09:40):
We produced the.

Speaker 3 (01:09:40):
Show, yeah, and now why would we know on a Thursday?
We we We thought we did though. When we left yesterday,
we're like, Wow, we've got these people and we've got
these stories, and we'll probably just push it in that direction.
And then we woke up and the NBA was in handcuffs.
It's like a lot of weird stuff going on.

Speaker 20 (01:09:55):
We had an amazing show yesterday.

Speaker 3 (01:09:56):
Yeah, yesterday's show was the one you guys should have
saw coming together night. Sandra Smith was hanging it was
looking good personally on the Chaos, Thank you and I
meet too. I like the madness, right Andy? Do you
like this spontaneous spontaneity of crisis. Do you like that?
I mean, that's how I live every single day in
the city, so might as well throw that into work
as well. That is funny that you say that, because

(01:10:18):
you know, in screenwriting they say the number one rule
of screenwriting is that every scene needs a conflict, Like
if it's a scene where I'm telling you the Da
Vinci code. I also need to be like getting something
off a shelf or jumping over it, you know what
I mean. When you live in New York, it's good
screenwriting because every scene has a conflict, right Absolutely, get
on a subway there's a guy swinging a screwdriver and
just yelling at the thin air and then nothing nothing.

(01:10:41):
So there's that. So this is not a woe is
Us moment. This is a we're figuring it out, We're
excited about it.

Speaker 10 (01:10:46):
But you should definitely come be in our audience.

Speaker 3 (01:10:48):
Yes, so that was the point of the girls stop
it by. So as we head into the winter, late fall,
if you want free tickets to Fox New Saturday night
they go do you can go to Fox cors America,
foxcross America dot com. We actually have a big landing
spot there too, because that's where all my stand up
tickets are and you can actually be in the studio audience.

Speaker 23 (01:11:04):
You you don't even have to watch the show. You
could just come hang out with me and Annie. Yeah,
that's what the people are there.

Speaker 3 (01:11:10):
Yeah, they hang out with them, they go to them
sometimes they go to the bar afterwards.

Speaker 23 (01:11:14):
Absolutely, they're like oh can use jimmy guy, Like, stop
talking so much, have a conversation over here.

Speaker 3 (01:11:18):
Our show is not normal in the sense that, like
we actually do talk to the audience all night. Sometimes
we see them in the bar afterwards. You know, if
you go to most TV tapings, they're just you know,
the audience is there to clap like seals and they
have a job to do. Okay. Our show is the
opposite of that.

Speaker 23 (01:11:33):
Yeah, we're like, what do you think we should talk
about it?

Speaker 20 (01:11:36):
Anybody you got some ideas?

Speaker 3 (01:11:37):
You wind up lending us money home? It gets real.
Our show is real life, Jen, would you not say.

Speaker 10 (01:11:44):
It's the realistic?

Speaker 20 (01:11:45):
Can never be?

Speaker 3 (01:11:46):
You should just come see it, h and email.

Speaker 10 (01:11:50):
Us some ideas.

Speaker 23 (01:11:51):
Okay, the best holiday gifts you can get for your family.

Speaker 10 (01:11:54):
There is free tickets to our show.

Speaker 23 (01:11:55):
Come into the city nothing, They.

Speaker 3 (01:11:58):
Come watch the show and we talking about real life.
We have male guests who have an order of protection
against Jen's mom. Like that doesn't more than that. Annie
goes home, her mom stays in the bar to give it.

Speaker 10 (01:12:09):
That keeps on good?

Speaker 3 (01:12:10):
What does gonna act like my mom's throwing a perfect
but what do you know what we're ound the.

Speaker 21 (01:12:15):
Time who.

Speaker 2 (01:12:19):
From Everywhere USA. It's Foxing Across America with Jimmy Faylon.

Speaker 3 (01:12:54):
Oh girl, Jimmy's back behind a microphone and we got
some grown up radio to do. Kennedy two Sports Star
over at MTV now here on the Fox News platform.
She of course, also is probably the best writer over
at the Daily Mail. If you're reading Kennedy's columns every week,
one way or the other, you're gonna hear from the
woman herself in this hour of Fox Across America eight

(01:13:15):
at eight seventy eight, nine to nine one zero. Another
segment with the producers coming up as well. This is
a mystery segment. You're not allowed to know what we're
actually going to do. That's not right. It's really just
a fancy way of me saying that I don't know
what we're going to do.

Speaker 1 (01:13:33):
You're honest.

Speaker 3 (01:13:34):
Some creative changes going on with the show right now.
It's griffeng shweing, as they say, and sometimes you got
to do this stuff on the fly to make it good.
But as we get under way in this hour, we
do have a plan, and this is a very concerted
plan to try and give you a concise summation of
the final New York City mayorial debate.

Speaker 16 (01:13:55):
That was a hot mess, inside a dumpster, fire, inside
a train wreck.

Speaker 3 (01:14:01):
Nah, listen, it add its moments. I'm going to play
the highlights, and before I do, I just want to
make sure we're all on the same page. I, of course,
you know, heard around the country on a couple hundred
stations here in New York seven to ten wor the
Talk of New York, phenomenal station, phenomenal people. They took
us out the dinner last night. They had their big
advertising dinner with a host, went out and ate a steak,

(01:14:22):
and unbeknownst to me, I was supposed to give a speech.
Someone just handed me a microphone out of nowhere. This
could be a problem I worked out. But the point
is a great time. But here in New York we
are obviously consumed by this mayor's race, and I've been
trying to export the conversation to the rest of the
country for two simple reasons. One, if New York a

(01:14:43):
LECs a Democratic Socialist and runs into some type of
municipal Iceberg, then the bill to bail out New York
at the federal level would ultimately be a cost to you.
The taxpayer. Now, I don't know that it's going to
get there, and I'll give you more commentary. But the
bigger reason that we want to focus on and the
electability of democrat socialism is because truly, and not a

(01:15:04):
lot of people are telling you this, Mom Donnie doesn't
have the authority at the mayor level, does not have
the authority to implement socialism. Okay, the money he's going
to need for tax hikes has to come from a governor.
A lot of the money he needs to do things
at the federal level come from the president. Point being
is his policies might not happen, but if they prove electable,

(01:15:29):
then it's only a matter of time before other young,
influential social media people bankrolled by out of state interests,
bankrolled by international interests, are suddenly considered electable. I got
a feeling about this. That's really what mom Donnie represents.
And when you look back on this moment in history,
if socialism ever truly makes its way into our government

(01:15:53):
on a more profound level, it'll be because he was
electable in New York. I get it, you go, but
New York's overwhelmingly liberal. It's like ninety eight percent of
liberal in the city itself. Of course, he's gonna win,
and he is. I believe he's. I actually believe he's
gonna win. Okay. But even so, the old theory, as
the adage goes, is success has one thousand fathers. Failure
is an orphan. The internal struggle within the Democrat Party

(01:16:17):
right now between Mom Donnie and anybody else is if
Mamdannie wins, okay, that is a success for AOC. That
is a success for the people in the squad and
the far left folks who follow her lead. AOC is
a dope, maybe so, But AOC and the radical climate
change people who want to reconfigure our economy, Okay, Suddenly

(01:16:39):
they're the ones with a bigger foothold in government, which
is an issue for a multitude of reasons, not the
least of which is the fact that the climate stuff
is not sustainable or supported by any data whatsoever.

Speaker 21 (01:16:51):
We cannot run the greatest economy by putting fairy dush
and unicorn urine in our cars.

Speaker 3 (01:16:58):
So my concern is not that Mom Donnie gets in
tomorrow and implements Sharia law on socialism the next day.
I don't actually think he's gonna have the power to
do most of this. But the reality is, if this
strategy proves viable success as of a thousand, father's failure is
an orphan, the Democrats are all going to throw their

(01:17:18):
weight behind this because it was successful. Will it be
a problem at the national level. Yes.

Speaker 1 (01:17:24):
So.

Speaker 3 (01:17:24):
I don't think Mom Donnie winning means we get a
socialist on the ticket for the presidency in twenty twenty eight.
But I do think Mom Donnie winning means a lot
of liberal places Minneapolis, you know, places like Chicago, La,
stuff like that, are more inclined to support this going forward,
And in the short term, it's more important to the
socialist movement to normalize it, to make it acceptable in

(01:17:46):
our political bloodstream, than it is to just consequentially take
over everything. Is that the endgame? Yeah? Okay, but that's
where it finishes. And that's why you have to be
mindful of Mom Donnie. It's not where it starts. Everybody
keep saying, ay, you can't do all the stuff he can't,
But it's not where it starts. It's where it finishes.
Hear me give you some of the highlights. They Cuomo
took shots at Mom Donnie Sleeva took shots at mom Donnie.

(01:18:09):
This is about a minute long food fight. Enjoy clip one,
Clip four.

Speaker 8 (01:18:13):
I will be the mayor who doesn't just protect Jewish
New Yorkers, but also celebrates and cherishes them.

Speaker 3 (01:18:17):
Not everything is a TikTok video.

Speaker 24 (01:18:19):
You're the savior of the Jewish people. You won't denounce
globalize the Intifada, which means killed Jews. You have never
had a job, You've never accomplished anything.

Speaker 3 (01:18:29):
There's no reason to believe you have.

Speaker 24 (01:18:31):
Any merit or qualification for eight and a half million lives.

Speaker 3 (01:18:36):
Freeze the rent sounds great.

Speaker 24 (01:18:38):
Yeah, it affects about twenty five percent of the number
of housing units in the City of New York. It's
not a new idea. If the mayor doesn't have the
power to do it anyway, the rent Guidelines Board does,
and he doesn't control the Rent Guidelines Board, so nothing
is going to happen.

Speaker 20 (01:18:54):
It's all this.

Speaker 24 (01:18:56):
It's just more political Blaver.

Speaker 22 (01:18:59):
I've heard the bullet them again, fighting like kids in
the schoolyards.

Speaker 3 (01:19:02):
You're on. Your resume could fit on.

Speaker 6 (01:19:05):
A cocktail napkin, and Andrew, your failures could fill.

Speaker 3 (01:19:11):
A public school library in New York city. So a
bit of a food fight is what it was last
night in the fin of maorial debate. But some truth
spoken in there as well. When CMO says that Mam
Donnie can't do any of this stuff, that's the good news.
The bad news is there's a growing market for these
ideas in our politics. That's why we focus on this

(01:19:31):
just the same. What Mamdanni would actually be as the
mayor in New York would be like another term for
Bill de Blasio who wrecked the city. To be clear,
I'm not saying it's gonna be good. I'm not saying
we're all gonna be fine. Guy. The guy hates the
Jews and he's trying to get on TV and be like, no,
every human being needs respect. But Hamas has got a point.
You know whence you hear that, you know I've got

(01:19:54):
nothing against black people, but you know that whole thing.
I've got nothing against gay pe. However, you know what's
coming next fall? What the hell did you you say? Okay?
And he's flat out doing that. When it comes to
the Middle East situation, we know that guy called to
defund the police. Yes, it's proven to be a minor,
minor political inconvenience, guys still leading in the mayor's rights.

(01:20:17):
But if you were to go back to a post
nine to eleven New York City and tell anyone, anyone alive,
that we were going to be two decades out from
a socialist, Jew hating mayor who supports defunding the police
at a time when they were the most revered institution

(01:20:38):
in America, them and the fire Department and all the
first responders here in New York City. Like people like
literally would have thought you were trying to piss them
off in a bar. Somebody belt you in them out.
That's the only way you could have even proposed it.
You know, really think about that post nine eleven New
York City. Yeah, we got a guy who wants to
defund the police, says everything should be free, the government's

(01:21:01):
going to raise taxes on everybody. All this open border
stuff is fine. I know a thousand members of the
known terror watch list made it into the country under Biden.
I know fifteen million people came in bare minimum that
we're all paying for now. But New York's going to
elect a mayor that thinks all of this stuff is fine,
and they're going to just hand the bill to the
rest of the country when New York fails at a

(01:21:23):
financial level. Okay, if you suggested that in a post
nine to eleven moment, okay, I'm telling you because I care,
you might have got popped in the bar. They might
have punched you in the face. Okay. And here we are,
all these years later, on the verge of doing it
because there's a lot of stupid people out there that
don't know the history of socialism, that are consuming a

(01:21:43):
lot of social media, and they've turned politics into a
branding exercise. This is an outgrowth of Trump. By the way, Trump,
who really became the go to political commentator of a
generation on Twitter and drove every news cycle with his
hot takes on anything happening in the world world. You know,
this naturally created a market for more of this type
of political commentary. Now everyone in politics is a social

(01:22:07):
media influencer with a side hustle in Congress. There's nobody, nobody,
nobody who's prominent in Washington right now that doesn't have
two million followers on social media. That is the goal. Now.
They want to get money, they want to get clicks.
But the end result of a political landscape that drives
on money and clicks. Is that from time to time
the guy with the money and the clicks winds up

(01:22:30):
being an idiot like Zoron Mamdani.

Speaker 1 (01:22:32):
So y'all needs a.

Speaker 1 (01:25:02):
From Mark Simmon. WI.

Speaker 13 (01:25:05):
The governor runs the subways, and in twenty seventeen Cuomo
screwed up the subways.

Speaker 3 (01:25:10):
All the subways were late. He would next circle on
Fox Across America. But a quick fair or foul? I've
got a news story, Josh Mikey Rebecca of the booker
of Fox New Saturday Night. Are gonna tell me if
this is fair, like the play is okay, or it's
foul and you shouldn't have did this So far, so good, everybody.
This one involves Josh and I love. This story comes
to us courtesy of our friends at the Smoking gun

(01:25:31):
dot Com. A Texas inmate allegedly gave a prison guard
fifty dollars to smuggle wings from Wingstop into the prison.
So far, so good. Now he was caught, and I
get you can't smuggle wings in because you could smuggle
other things in. So far, so good. But his gripe
personally after being caught is that the prison guard took

(01:25:54):
several of the wings for himself. Okay, bowl, you say,
bow you on all counts. How deary hold to thievery.
But hold on a second, Mikey, I'll get let me
go to Mikey. Clearly, just for a second. You are
risking your job to smuggle things into the prison, like
if I was bringing you cocaine, right, and would I

(01:26:16):
not be within my life my rights to have a toot.

Speaker 10 (01:26:19):
You can't get high on your own supply.

Speaker 3 (01:26:21):
Yeah, but these are chicken wings, Josh. You say he's
got to get a full shipment. Absolutely not. He paid
you fifty dollars to get the full shipments. Yeah, I
was you wanted more silk could you come around if
he'd say the deal was fifty for these chicken wings,
the guard knowingly abscond's four or five? Does he if?
What if he discounts the rate and goes, all right,

(01:26:41):
forty because I ate three or four of them? Can
you forgive that?

Speaker 10 (01:26:44):
I think so?

Speaker 3 (01:26:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 18 (01:26:45):
I mean you just need to be smarter. Ask the
people at wing stuff for a second container. Yeah, move
a couple into that container for yourself. Yeah, and cover
up the evidence you gotta. It's the old spread the celery. Yes,
you know what I mean. Yeah, if you've you've been
a server.

Speaker 3 (01:26:58):
Or restaurant wants to eat food to spread the celery
trick makes the wing plate look a little more fertile,
you know what I'm saying. So, Mikey, you say this
guy's a bad guy I grew Josh fell Yep. Definitely
wing etiquette. I guess it also depends on how many wings.
I mean, if you're getting, well, what are you getting
for fifty? You get twenty five? And I don't know
are you gonna eat twenty five? Wing stuff? Let me
read you the whole story. According to court papers filed

(01:27:20):
yesterday that Travis County Yellowish was monitoring and inmates phone
calls on an unrelated incident, so monitoring from other things.
When the man told a relative that a corrections officer
had provided him with chicken wings after he sent the
officer money on cash app, so this is a venmo
some type of deal.

Speaker 10 (01:27:36):
Was dummer in the situation, honestly.

Speaker 3 (01:27:38):
But again, they're looking for like gang activity.

Speaker 10 (01:27:41):
Yeah yeah, and he's like, I got a little sneaky snap.

Speaker 3 (01:27:45):
I mean some pun intended like boss I found their wingman.
Good on everybody.

Speaker 10 (01:27:51):
I gotta go here.

Speaker 3 (01:27:52):
It is where Becca laughed here it is uh So specifically,
the inmates said that the officer would agreed to supply
him with Haber narrow mango chicken wings from stop. I've
had those? Are they solid? They're good? Yeah, Like, if
you're in prison, do you risk a lengthier stay to
get your hands on them? Good? No?

Speaker 10 (01:28:07):
No, really that sounds disgusting.

Speaker 3 (01:28:09):
It sounds sloppy. I mean, Josh, if someone is smuggling,
like if someone smuggling drugs into a prison, right, you're
gonna do them, so you're not gonna see them. Yeah,
hob and yarrow mango chicken wings, Josh, sounds like they're
gonna see them when they're walking by the cell.

Speaker 10 (01:28:23):
No smell it.

Speaker 18 (01:28:25):
When you first started reading this story, I thought that
person just got the wrong type of order, Like you
ordered barbecue and he gave lemon pepper. Yeah, the opposite,
you know, That's what I thought we were going with
this story. But yeah, you can't.

Speaker 3 (01:28:36):
This is and lemon pepper would be the safer option, right.

Speaker 10 (01:28:41):
I mean it's all gonna smell. It's gonna be a
pungent smell. Huh, like if everyone knows what chicken wings
smells like. So that's gonna happen.

Speaker 3 (01:28:47):
Amen, let me give you a little more.

Speaker 10 (01:28:49):
Okay, there's more.

Speaker 3 (01:28:50):
Subsequent review of jail surveillance video showed a food delivery
arriving at the correctional campus in suburban Austin. So this
outside of Austin after the paper bag was run through
an X ray scanner. So, so far, so good because
in theory the jut they can order food. So the
issue is you could get the food into the prison
pretty readily if you're a guard. It's just what you

(01:29:11):
do with it next, Josh.

Speaker 18 (01:29:12):
Yeah, it's just passing it along, you know, it's smothering
it in a blanket. Or a pillar or something.

Speaker 3 (01:29:16):
You know, I hear here he comes, Here comes the
damning sentence. Though this is great. After the paper bag
was run through an X ray scanner, the guard twenty
five picks up the bag and eats some of the
wings himself. So we ate him right at the scanner.

Speaker 10 (01:29:35):
Maybe you think he was trying to prove.

Speaker 3 (01:29:36):
To hold on that they were for him.

Speaker 18 (01:29:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (01:29:39):
Do you think he was trying to just like pretend
they were for him?

Speaker 18 (01:29:41):
Yeah, I'm with you now, maybe I'm changing my opinion.
He was trying to cover his tracks a little.

Speaker 3 (01:29:45):
We just had our We just had our first pharoh
foulon history that an instant replay where you actually challenged
your own call on the field. I'm just said, we
had a lot of footage of this as opposed to
the epstein. Yeah, well, some guys rob the love. We
don't have a lead, But the guy eating the chicken fingers,
we're gonna talk about that guy. So the guard was

(01:30:06):
hired last year. He took several chicken wings from the bag,
places them on paper towels, and hands the paper towel
to the inmates. Also seen on surveillance, the inmate walks
away with the chicken wings and eats them. Court filings
do not identify the inmate or why an officer with
the jail Security Threat Intelligence Unit was monitoring his calls.
So this inmate was being monitored unbeknownst to him for

(01:30:27):
worse things. I don't think they were monitoring him for
chicken smuggling. Yeah, investigators have obtained a search warrant for cash
app data to determine the extent of his involvement in
bringing in contraband into assist in identifying other incidents, and
now they're trying to figure out if he's ven voted
other things.

Speaker 18 (01:30:43):
Well, this is how you get copone. You don't get
him for the good stuff. Yeah, you get him with
this small stuff, and you keep him locked up even longer.

Speaker 10 (01:30:49):
Doesn't Trim and Capoti have like a book about this.

Speaker 3 (01:30:53):
I think you just really threw us off here.

Speaker 18 (01:30:55):
I'm sorry, that's like three grade levels above Trimo.

Speaker 3 (01:31:00):
What's going on? There's any President Truman. He was the
one who bombed the Yeah, stick with me, okay, sorry,
So the guard was busted Tuesday, missed it me in
a contraband charge, citing Texas Pinal Cold thirty eight one
to fourteen and arrest. Affi David notes that chicken wings
are not provided or authorized to be provided to inmates.
That's really funny. And yes, and he has now been fired.

Speaker 10 (01:31:21):
Oh my god, what if it's boneless chicken wings? Does
that count?

Speaker 3 (01:31:25):
So he's been fired? To be clear, is he fired
for the smuggling Josh? Or is he fired for violating
smuggler's ettiicate and eating the wings?

Speaker 18 (01:31:33):
I think it's because he smuggled. If he's going to
smuggle something this small, he'll be willing to step up
in the future.

Speaker 3 (01:31:40):
This is the gateway. Okay, Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 10 (01:31:42):
Chicken wings are a gateway drug.

Speaker 1 (01:31:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:31:44):
The next thing you know, there's a pizza. The next
thing you know, there's a bag of heroine. Well let's
see what the internet commenter said on the website best
online money making method to work online and start making
an extra nineteen thousand. This is every comment, real and
simple method. This changed my life. Who are these spambots?

Speaker 10 (01:32:02):
Appreciated gift card?

Speaker 3 (01:32:05):
Nobody even threw in like a coupon code for Wingstop.
How does this story not have a ten code? Because
it is a good commercial over them? Our wings are
so good people are smuggling them into prisons.

Speaker 10 (01:32:16):
Feel like Buffalo Wild Wings propaganda.

Speaker 3 (01:32:18):
Yeah, I feel like this is a product placement by
a very smart local wingstop.

Speaker 1 (01:32:22):
Is what I think this is.

Speaker 3 (01:32:24):
God just tacked six months onto his sentence, did he not?

Speaker 18 (01:32:27):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:32:27):
No, this is the type of hard hitting journalism you
get on Fox across America. Kennedy's coming by. She will
follow on our thoughts. It's this is I have nothing
to add. There's a lot of puns that could be made,
but we'll save them for Saturday. But them, oh Rebecca,
God No, it's across America with Jimmy Fayala fired up
to talk to this next guest. It's amazing she has

(01:32:48):
the energy to do this, considering she saves the world
every day in her podcast damn Days. Every damn day,
the host of Kennedy Saves the World is in the house.
The crowd goes wild. Hello, so building on every damn day.
You don't know this. I wish you did. I should
have told you this a long time ago when Lincoln, No,
when Lincoln was in first grade. Uh, he was talking
to us about school first grade, and I said, I said,

(01:33:10):
who do you sit next to? And he goes. I
don't know why, appropriated nothing. He goes Stephanie every damn day.
I don't know why. I don't. I don't even honestly
know where he heard it. It's not saying on curse
in front of him. It's just the parlance of that phrase.

Speaker 20 (01:33:26):
When little kids. Yeah, correctly, you swear words like it's it's.

Speaker 17 (01:33:31):
Both a sign that our culture is falling apart and
we're going to be just fine.

Speaker 3 (01:33:36):
So puts right down the middle, hit the one in
the middle rock. He said, Yeah, I sit next to
Stephanie every blank darn day. I don't know what Stephanie
was doing. Her ro etiquette wasn't the best.

Speaker 20 (01:33:50):
Maybe maybe she's a little gassy.

Speaker 3 (01:33:52):
I don't stop eating your dan driff, Stephanie. People are talking.
It's not good. It's not good. It's not good.

Speaker 20 (01:33:57):
Not good, Stephanie.

Speaker 3 (01:33:58):
They're in a lot of stuff. I don't know where
to start right now. It's such a toll. Holman's got
to get her out of here. Uh that's funny too,
because I was talking about Oh, yeah, it's a fake
TV tan really that time? Yeah, this tan right here,
there's a spray.

Speaker 20 (01:34:12):
That's not a backyard.

Speaker 3 (01:34:13):
No no, I can't it actually not doing yourself?

Speaker 20 (01:34:16):
Or do you go somewhere?

Speaker 3 (01:34:16):
I usually get sprayed downtown.

Speaker 20 (01:34:18):
What does that mean?

Speaker 3 (01:34:19):
You go to a spray place if you need a
spray for TV? Like my tan is naturally for me.

Speaker 20 (01:34:23):
Once when I went to Mary Catherine Ham's wedding.

Speaker 3 (01:34:26):
There you got ruba.

Speaker 17 (01:34:27):
In March of twenty twenty, right before the world shutdown,
I went and got a spray tan in one of
those places and it was the best thing ever because
I showed up and everyone's like, wow, you're really tan?

Speaker 3 (01:34:36):
Really no, not really, see I usually rock in New York.
I rock a solid tan from alcoholism, as you know,
Like I spend the weekends drinking smoking cigars in my yard.
That's generally where I get my tan around.

Speaker 20 (01:34:46):
But more flush when the gin blossoms.

Speaker 3 (01:34:49):
Okay, when the fall becomes winter, I continue to get
a spray tan. And this is why the boy policy.
I'm telling everybody too much, but for us, we have
to be clean shaven on TV. Okay, I didn't know
that we all were all clean shaved.

Speaker 20 (01:35:01):
What about Nate Foy?

Speaker 3 (01:35:03):
Have you seen Nate Foy? Okay, no one is going
no one is going to criticize Nate Foy's looks. Nate
Foy is walkd you do it whatever he wants. I mean,
the only rule he has to follow is they prefer
him to do a shirtless They're like, if you could
take it all off, I'm kidding you could, if you could.

Speaker 17 (01:35:18):
Just as you're in the middle of a locust infestation
and a wildfire.

Speaker 20 (01:35:23):
But if you could just lose the shirt.

Speaker 3 (01:35:26):
Just for the hit, if you could just stop by
the green room and call me a dirty little girl,
I appreciate it. I love Nate Foy, But the point is,
when I'm clean shaven, I'm like, for real, and I could.
I'll show you the clips, and I'm like saying, America's
newsroom in the morning on a Monday, clean shaven, I
absolutely look like a sex offender. Absolutely. It's one thing
to be one, but I don't want to look like one, Okay,

(01:35:49):
So I prefer.

Speaker 17 (01:35:49):
A little thing about the world we live in is
sex offenders come in every form.

Speaker 3 (01:35:55):
Yeah, you get out, you go. It's that's gonna be
all right. I think it's going to be a long
long time. As a matter of fact, So Kennedy's here,
we're talking about the state of politics, the state of
Jimmy's facial hair. There was a debate last night. I
don't think it matters. I think Mom Donnie's gonna be
in a mayor.

Speaker 20 (01:36:12):
Yeah, unfortunately, I think you're absolutely right.

Speaker 17 (01:36:14):
Yeah, Slee was, and his like, I don't give any CAFs, none,
don't got any left, so.

Speaker 20 (01:36:20):
I'm just gonna go for it.

Speaker 3 (01:36:21):
It's just scorched girth.

Speaker 17 (01:36:23):
He hates both the people on stage with him. He
knows Mom Donnie's gonna win. He is Dennis Hopper in
that scene in True Romance that sicilian Eh. Yeah, Yeah,
he's gotten to the point where he knows he's going down,
so we might.

Speaker 20 (01:36:40):
As well tell the story. So that's what he's doing.

Speaker 3 (01:36:43):
I get one of them Chesterfields. Kennedy's a studio and
you're right, Slee. Way's just he's having fun. You know
what a naked gun. There's a funny movie scene when
they think the world is gonna end because it's the
second one, because of like some nuclear device that they
just need to unplug, but they don't realize it to
the end, and George Kennedy just grabs a woman and
goes if I'm going out I'm going out happy. It

(01:37:05):
just plants when on the girl. It's pretty funny. That's sleeve.
If I'm going out, I'm going out happy.

Speaker 22 (01:37:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 20 (01:37:11):
I think that's what Matt Lauer said. When they're taking
them out of NBC.

Speaker 3 (01:37:15):
They're like, yeah, I got this finger on the pulse.
I'm like, no, we had the finger on the button
that was on his desk that would shut the door allegedly.
But I feel like it was a whole week of
performance art politics. I mean it always is, but I
feel like this was a unique week for that, especially
when it comes to even the White House stuff, Like I.

Speaker 17 (01:37:32):
Don't care, but they are all performing, like they know
we're not buying into it.

Speaker 3 (01:37:35):
Yeah, but that's what's weird.

Speaker 20 (01:37:37):
It's like this is fake. Wrestling's fake. We all know it.

Speaker 3 (01:37:41):
Yeah, Like we're just.

Speaker 20 (01:37:42):
Here for the entertainment value.

Speaker 17 (01:37:43):
Amen, Like we don't believe in any of these people.
We don't think that they have like a shred of decency.
They're all completely hypocritical, And.

Speaker 3 (01:37:52):
If anybody knows the value of wrestling entertainment, it's a
woman who was hit on by sergeants slaughter for an
hour last Saturday night on Fox Sergeant Slaughter came on.
He was running hot. He had a special colbra clutch
for the K train. Just waiting for you, just waiting
for you. I'm pregnant. Yeah, listen, it'd be great if

(01:38:13):
he did, because he's sitting on Gi Joe money. That
was so weird. Yeah, he was a g I Joe.

Speaker 17 (01:38:18):
Yeah, he was like wwf wwe g I Joe like
all of it.

Speaker 20 (01:38:23):
And it's that lantern jaw, like that's what it is.

Speaker 17 (01:38:26):
Yeah, Like that'll that'll get your.

Speaker 3 (01:38:28):
Central casting jaw of Sergeant Slaughter. It was really cool.

Speaker 17 (01:38:32):
Sergeant Slaughter's jaw is like Sydney Sweeney's breasts. Like that alone,
that's the one attribute that we'll carry them through for decades.

Speaker 3 (01:38:40):
Yeah. Having said that, why doesn't he have an American
Eagle campaign.

Speaker 20 (01:38:43):
I'm a little discussed a game.

Speaker 3 (01:38:44):
More American than Sergeant Slaughter does not.

Speaker 20 (01:38:48):
I have a very funny story to tell you.

Speaker 3 (01:38:49):
Give it me.

Speaker 17 (01:38:50):
I don't know if I told you this. I think
I did, but I'll tell you. Pretend you're hearing it
for the first time. So Sergeant Slaughter in the nineties
early ninety made his heel turn yep and became a
bad guy.

Speaker 20 (01:39:03):
And this is during.

Speaker 17 (01:39:04):
The first Iraq War, oh man and he and this
is from someone deep inside WWE.

Speaker 20 (01:39:12):
He turned heel and sided with the iraqis.

Speaker 17 (01:39:18):
My friend's dad was working at ww and said they
had to evacuate the building multiple times because of bomb
threats because people were so mad that Tarzan Slaughter did
that and turned his back on the country when we
were in a war.

Speaker 3 (01:39:34):
And this is probably like h W Bush, Yes, oh yeah,
So it was intense. It was This was not the
Dixie Chicks getting mad at w which was intense, and
this was wrestling face. Yes, who want to go fight
that way?

Speaker 20 (01:39:46):
And this was before the Balkans, like it was. It
was a long stretch.

Speaker 17 (01:39:51):
This America had not seen action in a long long
time and so and they were in it. And it's
like people forgot what it meant sacrifice for wartime and
be completely patriotic and pay attention to the news. And
that's how Wolf Flitzer made a name for himself. And
then Sergeant's Laughter comes along and sides with the enemy.

Speaker 3 (01:40:13):
God Love, Vince McMahon, whoever was in the writer's room.
They're like, you know, it's gonna gin them up.

Speaker 17 (01:40:18):
Right, he's really gonna get mad and watching.

Speaker 3 (01:40:22):
Well, you got to see what Vince McMahon has done
to the New York City mayor's race. It is if
you think they were upset about Sergeant Slaughter. Oh, let
me throw another one at you, because I found I
found this funny too, same as it pertains to the shutdown.
You know we were talking about. They don't care, there's
no decency. Everyone's heard the clip by now. But is
it Kathy Clark, Josh, is that what I'm talking about
over here? The Yeah, Katherine Clarke, the minority whip who

(01:40:45):
flat out says like this is such.

Speaker 20 (01:40:46):
A minority whip. Minority whip, three minority whips.

Speaker 3 (01:40:49):
Yep, here we go. This is so fascinating to me.
It's clip forty.

Speaker 15 (01:40:54):
I mean, shutdowns are terrible, and of course there will be,
you know, families that are going to suffer. We take
that responsibility very seriously, but it is one of the
few leverage times we have.

Speaker 3 (01:41:10):
YO, so I feel your pain. However, don't care.

Speaker 20 (01:41:15):
It's a political play. All we're doing.

Speaker 3 (01:41:19):
Families are going to suffer. We take that very seriously.

Speaker 17 (01:41:22):
Having said that, not doing anything about it.

Speaker 3 (01:41:25):
Thanks for calling the fighter department. What it's on fire. Listen,
we take that very seriously. You have a nice day.

Speaker 20 (01:41:33):
We are watching Thursday night football. Appreciate you.

Speaker 3 (01:41:39):
You dont have a hope for the best now, you know,
I have most of the Vikings defense in my fantasy
team right anyway, thanks for calling like that. What but
like they admit it. It's like we always talk about this,
you know, like we grew up in this era where
it's always been this way. But they at least gave you,
you know, the line in full metal jacket. You don't
have the gosh daan common courtesy to give the guy

(01:41:59):
a reacher. They don't have the common courtesy to give
you the political read like, they don't even pretend that
they care. Now now there's to pretend they care, and
they didn't care. We're like, oh, at least they said
they cared. They don't care.

Speaker 17 (01:42:09):
Now. They used to pretend they were good and decent.
Now it's like, yeah, someone punched me in the face.
I'm gonna cut them in the throat like that. A
woman who's running for Congress in Texas said that, and
it's like, Okay, I guess that's where we're at.

Speaker 3 (01:42:23):
The Abby Gel Spamberger. One is so good when she's
complaining because she's like, I don't think it's right that
I have to keep talking about Jay Jones's texts. I'm like,
you wouldn't if you actually condemned them and said step down. Yeah,
but she's selling weeks ago j Jones merch. Yeah, you
know I played that clip earlier. I'll play for you.
Let me find that clip, Josh the Abby, Gail Spamberger,
I'm all over the map. Today is a lock Hay train.
There's a lot of audio today to greet your triumphant arrival.

(01:42:46):
We worked hard on this. It's Spamburgery twenty seven.

Speaker 19 (01:42:50):
The fact that I can't spend every minute of the
day talking about the plans that I have built out.
You know, I mean not to be too hookey about it,
but like my multiple pages of plans, my affordability plan,
my education plan, my growing our economy plan, because of
the four choices of another candidate, dude, it is something

(01:43:13):
that that really clouds my view of all of it.

Speaker 3 (01:43:17):
Well, part of the problem is that, you know, those
poor choices of another candidate. She's selling merch with his
name and her name on it.

Speaker 20 (01:43:22):
Yeah, that's that's your ag.

Speaker 17 (01:43:24):
Yep, bro, Like you're you're backing someone who's calling for
the murder of an innocent man and his family.

Speaker 3 (01:43:33):
And she's like, what do I got to keep talking to?
You know, time was you could kill your opponent's kids
and people that give you such we do here, guys,
amateur hour. The American people are going backwards. We're going
forward here, you know, and that it's.

Speaker 17 (01:43:45):
So obsting, you know.

Speaker 20 (01:43:46):
I know it sounds.

Speaker 3 (01:43:47):
Hokey, but nobody's nobody's trying.

Speaker 17 (01:43:50):
To then take your left foot out and I shoved
mine in my mouth.

Speaker 3 (01:43:56):
Oh, like a lot.

Speaker 20 (01:43:58):
It's so serious, you guys. He's like, I'm running for
governor of Virginia.

Speaker 3 (01:44:03):
You know. It's funny, by the way, about that race
specific because we've entered the time of the year, you know,
like you know, it's full because people are drinking pumpkin
products and the media is pretending Obama endorsements matter. Do
you know every October?

Speaker 17 (01:44:15):
My friend Monkey Shiryl is a woman of integrity.

Speaker 20 (01:44:20):
She's not we're in a liar.

Speaker 3 (01:44:23):
She was out with Charloava. He goes, did you make
seven million dollars trade in stock? She goes, I don't know,
Like that's a disqualifying answer. She's amended it to now say, well,
my husband technically looks at the account, so I didn't
know the exact dollar amount at the time, and I
didn't want to say, but of course this camp but
it's probably.

Speaker 20 (01:44:40):
We're running for office.

Speaker 17 (01:44:41):
If you if you are a former congress person, like
and you know you're going to run for state wide
office and a very visible like important Bellweather Weather race,
you better know what your finances are.

Speaker 3 (01:44:53):
I mean, come on, lady, like if you have.

Speaker 17 (01:44:55):
Any serious aspirations at all, like who did the vetting
on her?

Speaker 20 (01:44:59):
Like normally you how people vet you who are as
hardcores you opposition. She was like, I kind of don't
want to know what they know, so I'm going to.

Speaker 3 (01:45:09):
Skip that meeting. But you think about him and Michelle
endorsing after a convention speech about people who take too
much money ill gotten gains and by the way, and
this is the best one and we've had his talk.
Obama is bad at this, but the media bumper bold
for him his whole time.

Speaker 20 (01:45:24):
He hates this, hates it so much, I'm hitting for
other people.

Speaker 17 (01:45:28):
He wants to hang out on the patio in Nantucket, Brillain.

Speaker 20 (01:45:35):
Ostrich Burgers, all the fun stuff. Yeah, he you know,
and drinking zero.

Speaker 3 (01:45:38):
Alcohol the cooked medium well or you don't want to
know what's going to happen to the chef. This guy
he hates it, man, that's a lot.

Speaker 20 (01:45:48):
Hated going on stage with Biden.

Speaker 3 (01:45:50):
Yeah, like let him off, get me out of all
of them.

Speaker 17 (01:45:54):
Like, and there were these great rumors that he was
plugging Jennifer and Harry's styles and he's like, I just
I just want those rumors to be true and for people.

Speaker 20 (01:46:06):
To leave me alone. I did my time.

Speaker 3 (01:46:10):
Leave me alone.

Speaker 1 (01:46:11):
And then he's not.

Speaker 20 (01:46:12):
The savior of the party.

Speaker 17 (01:46:13):
If he were the big decider, Kamala Harris would be president.

Speaker 3 (01:46:17):
Amen. And the best part about her running brought that up.
So if you remember he lectured a bunch of black
men at a Chicago event about not showing up for
the sister. Do you remember that? The little controversy, So
who is he endorsing in the Virginia governor's race, Not
the sister, He's endorsing Abby Girl Spanburger, who's selling merch
with the guy who wants to shoot his opponent's kids.

(01:46:39):
That's how committed. He is to the sister. Not a
bigger fraud in politics. Don't go anywhere. We got more
Kennedy boas Kennedy.

Speaker 1 (01:46:46):
If you were listening to the host who woke back down.

Speaker 3 (01:46:50):
There, it is the bottom of the night. The Fox
across America. The K train still in the station. It's
the government shut down. The train traffic controller tried to.

Speaker 17 (01:47:00):
Kick me out, Hike and Josh during the commercial break.

Speaker 3 (01:47:04):
They wouldn't. Yeah, footed off. They tried the water cannon. Nothing.
She just hung out here. We are swimming. Yeah, that's
what you gotta do. You know, when life gives you lemons.
Oh wow. So look the channel is playing the CNN
throwback video from twenty ten. So that is Obama. Obama
in twenty ten did a big renovation of the White House.

(01:47:24):
Cost three hundred and seventy six million dollars to put
in a basketball hoop. By the way, one building did
come down in the process. But we've gotten a slightly
different reaction this time around. Now I will say this
Trump did what a builder does. That really doesn't sit
well with people like I'll qualify this. Guys. They should
technically tell you when they're going to start construction at

(01:47:45):
the White House. I get that it is jarring, but
you know why they don't do that because in construction,
if you tell them it's coming on the tenth, that
opens you up to twenty days of injunctions to stop
the start date. That is why they do it. Oh yeah,
because like zoning boards and stuff, because.

Speaker 17 (01:48:00):
You always have to post yeah, what construction, who, what
it's being used for?

Speaker 3 (01:48:06):
And knowing that appellate court judges have literally blocked everything
he did, he just started it. I mean again, is
that normal at the White House? That's the part that
is it normal. There's nuance to these discussions renovations, very
normal renovations where a wrecking ball just takes out the West.

Speaker 17 (01:48:23):
It's got to be for everyone on his team who
wants to give him security briefs, you know, peace briefs,
like everything. And he's he's so distracted by the construction
that he keeps walking over there talking to subs, looking around.

Speaker 3 (01:48:38):
It's real and it's eighties construction. They're cat calling women again.
I love this, This would be great, that would be great.
But the point is, and we all know.

Speaker 20 (01:48:47):
This, we're in a hard hat cabinet meetings.

Speaker 3 (01:48:50):
Loves this. He loves it. It's watching Bob the builder
that's always watching now, but everyone complaining. Obviously, a Democrat
will win an election again. Someday they'll use the ball room. Sure,
and every freaking news outlet it will cover it. They
won't go like that, you shouldn't be in there. Yeah,
it's it's sweats also dumb, but that's the performance.

Speaker 17 (01:49:07):
It's not like when one of the Boston Red Sox
hits a home run in Yankee Stadium.

Speaker 3 (01:49:12):
Yeah, you throw it back. They're not throwing this.

Speaker 17 (01:49:15):
They're not gonna they're gonna be like, oh my god,
this ballroom is seriously like.

Speaker 3 (01:49:18):
This is amazing.

Speaker 20 (01:49:20):
The're not in a tent right now.

Speaker 3 (01:49:21):
Do you want to know? My biggest conserve of the
ballroom is is who's decorating it, because if he does,
it might end up looking taggy because they've turned the
Oval office. They turned the Oval Office into an upmarket
cracker barrel. There is so you don't even see the walls.
It's just gold and knick knacks and pictures and license plates.
It is a high end cracker barrel, that's what it is.

(01:49:43):
So this ballroom for shit.

Speaker 20 (01:49:45):
Oh that's fantastic. I will never look at the Oval
Office the same way again?

Speaker 1 (01:49:49):
And what do you do?

Speaker 20 (01:49:50):
What does the next president do? Like go full minimalist.

Speaker 3 (01:49:53):
They may have to, because the thing is, I was
reading about how they get shown like this basically essentially
archives in the White House of things you can hang up,
and they're like, I don't know which ones of these
do you want to put up? But he was like
all of them? Why wouldn't we put up every single one?

Speaker 17 (01:50:06):
We know, mister President like historically the president picks like
two maybe three.

Speaker 3 (01:50:13):
He basically do you know how a five year old
kid gets a mister her potato head and puts ears
in the nose slot and everything, just put it all on.
They're wearing every outfit. It's crazy. But the show's over.
Kennedy's got to go save the world on our podcast.
Check that Aubu on the five today as well, should
be on the five. I'll be on waters World apologizing
for what she did on the file. Happy Thursday, everybody.

Speaker 1 (01:50:35):
This has been a podcast from dou Wo r.
