Back in Action on the High Fly and Death Defy
and Fox Across America with Jimmy Fayala, Stack Deck of
a show, The.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
Rest of the Way.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy in the House, Lara Trump is
going to be here to talk shutdown in White House renovations.
Texas Senate candidate Wesley Hunt on the ballot as well,
but batting Leadoff, a man many people consider to be
the Ricky Henderson of radio guests, a first ballot Hall
of Fame radio leadoff hitter, the host of Special Report,

(00:46):
the author of a phenomenal new book about Teddy Roosevelt
that I am reading right now, The Birth of an
American Empire. I have so many questions for Brett bears
here and the crowd goes wild.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
My man, how about that? That's a hell is? This
is what it is with us?

Speaker 2 (01:00):
Okay, if we don't Gussie people up at Hello, they
know they're not coming to the show. Okay, if you,
if you could just bear with me, the confetti cannons
are going to go off. The pyrotechnic should release and
then it's a vibe, right it's with is what we've done.
We've given this. We've given this the vibe of a
little bit more of a relaxed energy. As you know
next door at club kill Me, it's very rock em

(01:22):
sock them radio.

Speaker 3 (01:23):
It is.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
This is a different thing.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
This actually looks like our parents left built like a
fort out of the living room, and like when you leave,
I have to rearrange all these chairs. There's a coffee
table out in the hallway right now.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
It's not good. I love that.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
Let's talk book really quick, off the batbread Bear because
from what I'm told, sales hotter than Katie Porter after
somebody walks through her shot.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
I give you that.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
I just want to ask this question. I'm driving home
last night through Times Square. You are on such a
big billboard on the corner of like forty fifth right there.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
Whatever the heck that is building right there.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
So I was there in traffic looking at Brett Baer
last night and I got a little fired up because
I know we filmed the trailer for this interview two
days ago on social media, but this is the theatrical
release of the interview. That's fantastic. And I was excited
about this because the thing about Teddy Roosevelt that we
didn't get to when we talked the other day is
Teddy Roosevelt really had maybe like a national pride, a

(02:22):
civic pride that we might be experiencing a rebirth of
right now. Yeah, And I think in a lot of
ways that was the driving force behind a lot of
the things he did.

Speaker 1 (02:30):
He was a disruptor.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
That's what I've taken away from the But you want
to know where I'm at in the book so far.
I now know, okay, that he ran the NYP dight,
I knew he was a governor, but I had no
idea just how much of a disruptor he was in
getting as far as he is in the story, pretty cool.

Speaker 4 (02:46):
He stirred things up. He was always a guy that
was challenging the establishment. And that's why, you know, sometimes
the big wigs, the party bosses, kind of hated the
guy because he was causing all kinds of problems As
New York State legislator, as New York City Police commissioner,
as New York governor. He is a guy that challenges

(03:10):
the status quo to the point where as he's new
New York governor. They understand he's powerful as a forceful
politician and they need to kind of put him in
his place and get rid of him.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
So they think, let's put him as vice president.

Speaker 4 (03:24):
They stashed him, They stashed him, you know, they promoted
him up so that he didn't run for president, so
that they put him on the ticket. They think, okay,
we can control them. That's fine, until McKinley is shot
in Boston, in Buffalo and he becomes president the youngest
at forty two.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
He ors forty two at the time.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
And it's so funny then because they did the most
NYPD thing in the world, you know, in the NYPD.
Both my brothers were city cops twenty years. My dad
did forty two.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
By the way.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
Wow, yeah, I would have been a cop if it
weren't for this thing called a background check that.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Kind of, you know, kind of threw me off the
scent a little bit. I could.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
But in the NYPD, if a guy is a problem
in midtown, they'll try for him to Staten Island just
because it's a longer commute. He isn't as much of
a headache for the bosses. Take him out of the
miss Teddy Roosevelt got Staten Island in the Vice presidents
and wound up being the Commissioner of Police exactly.

Speaker 3 (04:13):
It's such an exact story.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
No, but I mean it's all true, and it's because
of his force of personality. And he was like that
in the Oval office. You know, he was a guy
that challenged a lot of stuff.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
Well, that's the thing I love is that when you
read the book, and I think this is the highest
praise anybody can give an author of an autobiography, is
you actually feel like you're in the room with the person.
It's almost it's close. I don't want to say it's
a seance like Aluigi Bord. It's like you're talking to
Teddy Roosevelt. I feel like I can hunt now that cans.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
I have no clue. I can't.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
I mean, I own a couple of leopard print jackets
that I've been ordered never to wear again on the air.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
But I don't know that that puts me in t
R's class.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Do you have like a on a personal level, Okay,
do you I hope he gets the deserved image rehabilitation
that he's being denied right now, they tore down his statue,
which was ridiculous to.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
Me, is insane.

Speaker 4 (05:11):
The guy is one of the four faces on Mount
Rushmore and he can't have a statue in front of
the museum that he found it, and he found it,
that he essentially stocked.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
I mean, imagine that. And the movie night at the
museum is Teddy. I mean, it's there, Robin Williams. Robin Williams.
So we canceling Robin Williams. Now, is that not ridiculous?

Speaker 1 (05:31):
I can't.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
That's like another book I wrote about Grant. Yep, they
tear down Grant's statue. He's the president that fought the
most for African Americans. I mean, obviously Lincoln does what
Lincoln does, but Grant is the person that actually puts
blacks in office and fights the KKK, and yet his
statue is toreed down.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
Gotta go. We're talking to the Great Brett Bear.

Speaker 2 (05:54):
He is the chief political anchor for Fox News, the
anchor of Special Report, of course, and the new book
is called to Rescue the American Spirit Teddy Roosevelt in
the Birth of a Superpower. Let me give you this,
since you brought up the statue thing in that runaway.
Summer of twenty twenty, when they were currently make they
started to make controversy of Abe Lincoln monuments in Boston

(06:14):
and Frederick Douglass monuments in DC. There wasn't really an
appetite to preserve history. So does it seem a little
transactional that people are mad we're getting a ballroom?

Speaker 3 (06:25):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (06:26):
Yes, the way you know, we talked about it the
other in the little preview.

Speaker 3 (06:30):
That you did.

Speaker 4 (06:30):
Teddy Roosevelt built the West Wing. He's one of the
presidents that does major renovations at the White House. There's
about fourteen of them that do major renovations. And I'll
be honest with you. You see that picture of the
tight shot of the East Wing and the and the stuff, you.

Speaker 3 (06:49):
Know, and you think, ah, yeah, but to get to.

Speaker 4 (06:53):
A finished product, you got to get there. Yeah, but
that it's construction.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
And I feel like there's this prisoner of the moment
happening where everybody's pedaling that image as if he just
left it that.

Speaker 4 (07:04):
Right, It's gonna be that way for the next guy,
like welcome to your ballroom.

Speaker 3 (07:08):
Were like steel girders everywhere.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
What I've enjoyed is all of the people who have
posted the images of other renovations, and I didn't realize
the Truman one was essentially an HGTV show. It was
like a flip this house, like they had like gutted
that thing.

Speaker 3 (07:24):
Down to the rafters. Yeah, from the interior, up and down.

Speaker 4 (07:28):
Nobody then is saying, how dare you touch this historical monument?

Speaker 1 (07:33):
Listen.

Speaker 4 (07:33):
It's because it's Trump, and it's because he is sort
of like the backyard bug zapper for Democrats. They cannot
fly anywhere but into the light, and so it's like,
no matter what he does, now, some of the stuff
pushes the envelope. And we all know that Teddy Roosevelt
was like that. He honestly was larger than life.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
That's what I wanted to go back to. Would Teddy
Roosevelt have a Twitter account? I belie if he would,
I'd have a great Instagram.

Speaker 1 (08:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
I don't know if he would though, because not all
the animals would be alive. It might be controversial.

Speaker 1 (08:10):
Actually, the most hate clicks in the history.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
Of instagratio would be all over them.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
Not good, but they are in a roundabout way, giving
him is due. We have that four hundred million dollar
library that's opening out in Dakota.

Speaker 4 (08:22):
That's July, right before the two hundred and fiftieth, which
is incredible.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
And Trump's gonna actually be there. Yeah, and it's a big,
big deal.

Speaker 4 (08:31):
North Dakota fought to have the Presidential Library there the
then North Dakota Governor Scott Berghm.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
He's a huge.

Speaker 4 (08:38):
Teddy guy, and he started collecting and helping the library
collect all the memorabilia.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
And now they're going to have this big, big library
out there.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
It's really cool. We're talking to Brett Bear.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
The book is called to Rescue the American Spirit, Teddy
Roosevelt and the Birth of a Superpower. Wow, you get
full screens and everything. This is Come on, Brett Bear,
let's till me this. No, it is high society. My
book didn't get a full screen on.

Speaker 1 (09:02):
The show What are we talking about here? And Fast?

Speaker 2 (09:05):
What are we doing here? But I went I grew
up going to Sagamore Hill. I grew up on the lane.
It's an incredible place. It's one of the first places
my parents took me of historic import And what's amazing
about the book is Teddy Roosevelt in museums reads like
a cartoon.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
Character. You have made him a real person.

Speaker 3 (09:23):
That's the cool part. It is the whole process, uh
is making them real.

Speaker 4 (09:28):
I mean they were men, women, they were people that
had ups and downs.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
You know.

Speaker 4 (09:34):
There's bad stuff where he loses his wife and his
mother on the same day on Valentine's.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
Day eighteen eighty four, and he just he loses it.

Speaker 3 (09:42):
It goes out.

Speaker 4 (09:43):
That's when he finds going out west to find himself.
But yeah, it's a real person. I love Sagamore Hill.

Speaker 3 (09:49):
I think it's caught in exactly that time.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
And I talked to his great grandson Tweed, who said,
if I was running around here as a kid, it looked.

Speaker 3 (09:56):
Exactly like this.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
That's rad. Come on, if you're in the he tries
State Air.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
If you're listening on w R seven ten the Voice
of New York a field trip out in Nassau County,
it's really good. Come on Oyster Bay Cove. I might
even know a cop out there if you get in trouble.
I have a one of my brothers wound up there.
He's retired now. But it's funny because in my family
we had an NYPD cop who's doing like real police work.
Then my other brothers making change at a lemonade stand.

(10:21):
You know, Kat gets stuck.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
In a tree. He's got to swoop in and save
the day.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
Let me run a few Teddy Roosevelt things by you
in the modern era? Yeah, okay, Teddy Roosevelt's border policy,
is it similar to what we see?

Speaker 3 (10:35):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (10:35):
I mean it's obviously not as extensive, but he's concerned
about our country and he wants to make sure that
we get people in to work, but not the wrong people.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
Okay, And he'd certainly be because he got into office
and broke it. I believe peace between China and Russia, right,
so he'd have that ambition. Yep, all right, cool. Would
Teddy Roosevelt want a ballroom? I think he would.

Speaker 3 (10:57):
I bet he would. He's an entertainer.

Speaker 1 (10:59):
Yeah, I think they all want a ballroom, by the.

Speaker 4 (11:01):
Way, I present the next guy that gets in. Yeah,
it's not like he's gonna turn down the ballroom.

Speaker 2 (11:06):
Right. So this is the last question about all of this,
because when I read that he was responsible for reconfiguring
the West Wing, or even inventing what we know to
be the modern wiseling, I realized part of this is
they want to fit the place to their own lifestyle.
But is a bigger part of this not the fact
that it will survive them in the White House. Yeah, legacy,
it must be right.

Speaker 4 (11:26):
Legacy and what that looks like, you know, and down
the road. And that's a big thing about I think
what President Trump's thinking about. You know, Democrats look at
it a lot of them because they're caught in this
twenty twenty eight thing with him wearing the twenty twenty
eight hat. He's They're saying, you know, he wouldn't build
a ballroom unless he wanted to stay there. Well, that's
not that's not it.

Speaker 2 (11:46):
That's my favorite thing of all the canards that get pedaled. Okay,
the idea that this guy has been overturned or injuncted
by appellate court judges in towns I've had to go.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
The idea that they're just gonna lay down and be like, no, no.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
You can rive up the Constitution and do it again
in twenty It's just so silly. But I think that's
the end result of being a disruptor. I think that
would maybe be the legacy of Teddy Roosevelt as other
politicians have come along and really upset the apple Cart.

Speaker 4 (12:16):
You know, I think it's his legacy, and I think
the other legacy is really putting America on the world
stage and number one as far as being a leader
and forceful and the world paid attention.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
After Teddy Roosevelt, Amen, I mean the birth of a superpower.
So before Teddy comes along, America is basically playing good
sized clubs.

Speaker 1 (12:36):
He turns us into an arena band.

Speaker 2 (12:39):
Teddy Roosevelt is the appetite for destruction of presidents.

Speaker 1 (12:43):
Welcome to the jungle, Brett Behar.

Speaker 4 (12:46):
Come on, now, you got theme music in every theme
music We're are the Cannons.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
Buy ten copies to rescue the American spirit. Teddy Roosevelt
and the birth of a superpower. It's required reading or
you're dead to me, Brettbaar the Man, Thanks bother Jami.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
Taking the edge off one story at a time, America
needs to learn how to light up. You're hanging out
with Jimmie Field.

Speaker 2 (13:05):
Ay minutes past the hour on Fox across America. That
can only mean one thing. It's time for producer Mikey's
head line Highway.

Speaker 5 (13:14):
Your virgin who can't drive?

Speaker 4 (13:17):
Five stories from a man with two passions.

Speaker 6 (13:20):
My hobbies are fast cars and fastwind.

Speaker 5 (13:24):
Stop out.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
Of course we are short of driver.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
Today on Mikey's headline, Highway producer Max still on the
disabled list noted cautions stay away from the Chicken fran
chase at the Flash Dancers buffet joining us now in
his place, superstar booker of Fox News Saturday Night, and
a self described comedian Rebecca Reinhold here to join the party.

Speaker 7 (13:52):
Hey girl, who's Rebecca Hineld? I thought this was Regina Rhyinstone.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
I do refer to her around the building as Regina Rhinestone.
And since we're talking around the building, let's discuss the
precipitous drop off in panache this show has just witnessed.
We went from Brett Baar, the host of the most
prestigious show in the building, just back to me alone.

Speaker 1 (14:09):
Is a drop off.

Speaker 5 (14:10):
I know, I was a hard get. That was a
hard gut.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Sean Duffy's coming up Texas Center candidate Wesley Hunt'll be here,
Larry Trump will be here next. But right now the
floor is Regina Rhinestones. Here are the stories Mikey picked
out today, So Luigi Mangioni, Josh got beat up by
seven lady boys in Thailand a month before that shooting.
I mean, I guess that's some sort of practice for

(14:35):
what he was about to do.

Speaker 1 (14:36):
That that's something.

Speaker 2 (14:37):
Yeah, well, I mean from the looks of Luigi though,
this sounds consensual that way back.

Speaker 5 (14:41):
Hurt Mikey.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
One question and we can move on. Have you ever
been beaten up by seven lady boys?

Speaker 1 (14:50):
Snoopine? Okay, only in.

Speaker 5 (14:52):
His fantasies with the Seven Dwarfs.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
Oh man, Rebecca taking your guest and you don't come
in here.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
I'm kidding.

Speaker 2 (14:59):
It's fine, Rebecca, But the hol Ouiji thing, since you know,
since you're here to talk about it really quick. The
idea that they were like women attracted to this guy,
is that a thing? Like they are there women that
legitimately attracted and people think it was like a like
a troll move, Like what.

Speaker 5 (15:12):
Was that of being attracted to him?

Speaker 7 (15:14):
Yeah, I mean there were women outside at the courthouse
protesting to free him because they were so in love
with him, and I like, I get it. I mean,
I'm also like violently desperate to find a man, so
I can completely relate to them, being like, so he
killed a guy, but.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
If it was legitimate, that's what I'm asking is who
does Mikey have to shoot to get laid?

Speaker 1 (15:32):
Question number four Here we go. The CEO of.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
Cracker Barrel claimed the logo, the disastrous logo change, was
not ideological. She was not doing it because she was
mad at the clientele. Do you buy that? No, because
of the glasses right.

Speaker 7 (15:46):
That well, all of it, like the whole thing made
no sense to me, because even if it was just
from a business standpoint, I kind of was just like,
no one was like, you know, what needs to change
right now, Cracker Barrel. You know, no one was sitting
around except the people at Cracker Barrel, and then they
saw it change, and they were like, we didn't want
this change, Josh.

Speaker 2 (16:04):
Usually, if you're a Cracker Bow, you need to change
your clothes by the time you have your thirty eighth pancake.
Right by the time you're done there, you're figuring out
what kind of chocolate specialty are you getting on the
way out to get back into the car that's going
to melt immediately.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
That's what happens.

Speaker 2 (16:18):
I'd like a kid cat the size of a beach towel. Please,
No one cared about the logo. Mikey, would you fire her.
If you were the GM of Cracker Barrel, do you
fire the CEO?

Speaker 3 (16:28):
Yeah, I think you have to.

Speaker 4 (16:29):
And also just especially with the excuse she gave right
about like visibility from the highway, That's what it was about.

Speaker 2 (16:34):
From the highway, there is a Cracker Barrel billboard every
three inches. You know what I'm saying, Like for real lists, No,
I know that is banana.

Speaker 7 (16:44):
That's like a worse excuse than the ones that I
give to guys I'm cheating.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
On, you know, like that's funny.

Speaker 5 (16:50):
They still stay with me.

Speaker 2 (16:51):
It's like the publisher of Hustler going, we need people
to know there's photos in here too, and it's not
just artists. Get her out of here. Number three ready
for this? And no one said anything about this. The
main Senate hopeful with the Nazi tattoo on the chest,
I saw no comte.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
Are you surprised by this at all?

Speaker 5 (17:09):
Got no coverage?

Speaker 6 (17:10):
Well?

Speaker 1 (17:10):
Are you good?

Speaker 5 (17:11):
Because there's so many Jews and news you think it
would be, you know.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
Taking shots at her own people.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
I think the surprise here is he didn't land the
mom Donnie endorsements, ice agents busting up Canal Street, the
guys selling fake pocketbooks. Josh, So, do you have to
buy Mega Birthday President at a real store this year?

Speaker 1 (17:26):
I'm kidding. I mean, this is really really hurting my options.
So I guess it's gonna be the same thing every year. Nothing.
This guy has killed me. Jenny used to go there
and go in the rooms to get the fake purses.

Speaker 5 (17:36):
I just go there for compliments.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
Ye, Rebecca is pro cat calling. That's why she likes
coming around Mikey Studio. Mikey's story number one, It's all
yours with thirty seconds ago, the number of young adults
identifying as transgender, I get this one has plunged by
nearly half in two years.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Are you surprised?

Speaker 2 (17:55):
No, cauld you think it was a fashion It was
like a fashion trend.

Speaker 1 (17:57):
Is that what it was? Ended there in the twenty twenty?
Is that what it was?

Speaker 2 (18:01):
Absolutely so congratulations you cut your wang off for nothing.

Speaker 1 (18:07):
There it is.

Speaker 8 (18:07):
We're back as that schedule to America with your main man,
Jimmy Fayala. Shout out to Brett bhar the Book to
Rescue the American Spirit, Teddy Roosevelt and the Birth of
a Superpower to hear it in Brett Baer terms, Teddy
Roosevelt took America from a club band to an arena band.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
Like if you know the story of the Beatles.

Speaker 2 (18:29):
They were playing the Cavern Club, just hitting on a
bunch of British chicks with bad teeth. But then somebody
decided to write a song called I Want to Hold
Your Hand. And the next thing you know, they were
on Ed Sullivan and they were playing arenas, and they
were playing stadiums, and the girls had nice teeth and
all kinds of nice other things. So along the way,
if you're picking up what I'm putting down in that
green room of theirs. But the point is Teddy Roosevelt

(18:51):
a disruptor in every sense of the word. You might
actually argue, I mean quite convincingly that he had a
lot in common with Donald Trump in terms of a
guy who got into Washington and shook it up. To
quote the cars shake it up, remember that one. So
the book is on sale now, it is doing incredibly well.
I am only far enough into it to know that

(19:13):
he became the Governor of New York and they had
to stash him, which is pretty funny. They made him
VP because he was such a disruptor in local politics
that they made him vice president because back then you
just didn't do anything. That's why there's an old joke.
It's been told for one hundred years. I think it's
a Will Rogers joke about President's Day. They got, well,

(19:33):
it's President's Day, you have no work, you have no responsibilities.
Probably should be called vice President's Day. That's like one
hundred and twenty five year old joke. So they sent
Roosevelt to Washington to be the VP and do nothing.
Of course, McKinley was tragically assassinated after he walked through
Katie Porter's zoom shot, and the next thing you know,

(19:55):
Teddy Roosevelt was the President of the United States of
America and things got pretty crazy from there.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
So that's season one of that book. I'm reading it
right now.

Speaker 2 (20:04):
It's world class, Like he's a really great book, and
Brett Bair did such a phenomenal job of bringing it
to life. Of course, he's not the only high profile
guest on the show today, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy joining
us at the top of the next hour. Wesley Hunt
is going to be here as well, so we'll have
a little a word on the street from the Hunt man,
Wesley Hunt running for senate now in Texas. Senate Wesley Hunt,

(20:26):
are you kidding me? And he and I have some
unfinished business. It started on Twitter on Monday morning, and
you're going to hear the end of a feud in
real time on the air if you stick around for that.

Speaker 1 (20:36):
I mean, we love Wesley Hunt, except for the time
he came on Fox New Saturday night on the panel.
It was.

Speaker 2 (20:44):
He was competing in a game. I believe my mom
was on the show. I believe Mary Anne Phala was
on the show with Wesley Hunt. You took about a
Bizarro panel this past week and I had Sergeant Slaughter
and Sergeant Slaughter was an actual toy I played with
growing up. So I was like Andy in the movie
Toy Story talking to the toys and it was Bizarro. Okay,

(21:05):
joining us now is a cowboy Jesse, if ever there
was one cowgirl Jesse. She's of course the host of
My View with Lara Trump. Lara Trump on the show
and the crowd goes wild. Hey, Hey, are they going wild?

Speaker 9 (21:16):
I was waiting for them.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
It is a mess over here. You have no idea
got crazy?

Speaker 6 (21:21):
It was in your mind, I know, in your mind.
Generally the crowd goes wild for a lot of things.
But that's great.

Speaker 9 (21:26):
It's always good to be with you, my friend.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
Amen, Lara Trump. I was talking about Toy Story. You
probably watched a few of the toy stories they're up to, like.

Speaker 9 (21:34):
Nineteen minute Toy Story.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
Yeah, sure, have.

Speaker 2 (21:36):
I watched them all. Well, we described you with the
cowgirl Jesse, and I think that's fair.

Speaker 9 (21:40):
I'll take that. Yeah, yeah, that is. That's a nice description.
I've been called much worse.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
I think you know that.

Speaker 9 (21:47):
I'm going on the shot. I just want you to
understand since you can see me.

Speaker 6 (21:50):
Huh.

Speaker 9 (21:50):
I got my big hoops on for you today.

Speaker 7 (21:52):
Yo.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
She does.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
It's Sea World Night on Fox across America. When Lara
and I first met, she wore these hoops onto the
show and I was concerned that a dolphin might jump
through them and eat a fish.

Speaker 9 (22:04):
You never know, Crazier things have happened.

Speaker 2 (22:07):
Listen. Yeah, you do a lot of animal segments on
your TV show that we love, So if a dolphin
comes hopping through, I'm not going to be surprised.

Speaker 1 (22:14):
I think America is.

Speaker 6 (22:15):
I don't think America would love it. America loves dolphins.
America loves animals, and I'm into all of that. I'm
trying to bring something new and different, Jimmy like you are.

Speaker 9 (22:26):
Amen, and yeah that we're doing it all.

Speaker 1 (22:28):
Just don't bring the Miami Dolphin.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
It'll bring people, now, right, Lara Trump, all right, So
do this, okay, because dolphin fans have a legitimate grievance
if you root for the dolphins are not having the
best year. And I mentioned legitimate grievance because there's another
grievance playing out in real time about the White House renovation.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
As I'm sure you've heard.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
It's the most pretend stupid thing I've ever heard, because
first and foremost we know what's happened before. But secondly,
every media outlet yelling about this if a Democrat ever
becomes president again, which seems far fetched at this moment.

Speaker 1 (23:03):
But it could happen. They're going to use the ballroom,
are they not?

Speaker 6 (23:07):
Well, everyone is going to be able to enjoy this
ballroom in perpetuity for the future of the country. I mean,
this is just this is this is how it's going
to go. My favorite, though, are the photos you have
out there circulating online that are so clearly distorted like
they've increased the size of this area that they've demolished,
just on the very far east wing of the White House.

(23:30):
It looks so distorted and so large in comparison to
the rest of the White House.

Speaker 9 (23:34):
It's completely outrageous.

Speaker 6 (23:36):
And yes, Donald Trump is the one building it can
anyone out there, Republican or Democrat, Jimmy, give me a
better person, a builder to build a ballroom, who has
built the most beautiful ballrooms in the world. Go to
mar A Lago, Go to Trump Turnberry, go you know,
to any Trump property.

Speaker 9 (23:54):
I know a lot of.

Speaker 6 (23:54):
These people don't want to admit it, but a lot
of these Democrats really had a great time at some
of these Trump property before Donald Trump came down the
Golden escalator, of course, and then they all ran for
the hills. And actually they didn't know him. But he's
the best person to do it. He's not spending a
dime of taxpayer money. He's making sure that all of
the money is privately funded.

Speaker 9 (24:15):
That's the best of all scenarios. So yeah, should one day.

Speaker 6 (24:18):
Which I agree with you, completely far fetched at this
point a Democrat ever become president, they're going to be
able to use it to and everybody in the future.

Speaker 9 (24:26):
Can use it as well. It's kind of amazing.

Speaker 2 (24:28):
Larry Trump on the line, if you're just joining us
telling the outrage crowd to go screw uh. She said
it slightly more eloquently. I will give you credit for that.
Yours was a little more eloquent. But I'm with you.
But is there a part of you, okay, knowing the
president as well as you do, is there a part
of you that is slightly concerned this is a slippery
slope to a nine hole golf course pitching putt?

Speaker 9 (24:50):
Well, Look, presidents have built things up.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
Well, that's done.

Speaker 9 (24:56):
Has some swimming pools, jammy tennis courts. I'm just saying,
there's a nice, big area. It's big enough to land
marine one.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
Amen.

Speaker 9 (25:04):
Knows what could happen?

Speaker 2 (25:05):
I don't know. You're right though, they had swimming lane,
bowl and alley, and there's a basketball hoop.

Speaker 1 (25:11):
You know what I would like? I would like mini golf.
I think mini golf.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
Foster's a nice family and it's like golf is golf.

Speaker 1 (25:20):
People do business on a golf course.

Speaker 2 (25:22):
If someone's doing business on a mini golf course, there's
still much mind.

Speaker 6 (25:26):
What it is though, it's like caricatures of all the
crazy Democrats out there that are each hole, like the
funny stuff you've seen them out there, you know, kind
of in different news outlets. We'll put postos. If we
could do those at every hole, I will be there
all the time.

Speaker 9 (25:40):
I would love to play that, dude.

Speaker 2 (25:41):
It would actually be perfect because we'd finally have used
for those Democrat windmills.

Speaker 9 (25:45):
They exactly.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
Oh come on, my.

Speaker 9 (25:51):
Friend, we're getting nuts.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
We're getting nuts. No, I love it.

Speaker 2 (25:54):
I think that's great. I love I love the whole thing.
One substantive point on the shutdown.

Speaker 1 (25:59):
It's been made a lot. I know you've made it.

Speaker 2 (26:01):
The Democrats passed Obamacare with no Republican support. They passed
the subsidies republican for Obamacare with no Republican support, and
they passed the expiration of these subsidies with no Republican support.
So the thing they're protesting is the thing they created,
is it not when it comes to the shutdown, Yeah,
but that's kind of the Democrats.

Speaker 6 (26:22):
They do something and then they point the finger at
somebody else. That's just how they are, that's how they operate,
that's all they know. So it should surprise no one
that that's exactly what's happening right now. And the part
of it too that gets me is it doesn't feel
like they're very serious about any of this, Like, yeah,
they're using this as their rationale to keep the government
shut down, but I think we all know they've kind

(26:44):
of just come to the end of the rope with
Donald Trump because there is just so much winning. Remember
when he told us that we're gonna get tired of
winning again. We're gonna win so much, We're gonna get
tired of winning. I'm like, God, how much more can
we possibly do? We have world peace coming to fruition
every single day before our very eyes. We have the
most secure border this country has ever had. Gas prices, Jimmy,

(27:06):
are finally back down below three dollars a gallon in
places in the United States we thought we'd.

Speaker 9 (27:11):
Never get back there. It's all happening. So they're like, oh,
what do we do?

Speaker 6 (27:14):
And some genius among them was like, we're going to
keep the government shut down, and this is what we're
gonna pin it on the problem we created ourselves. It
is exactly as the Democrats should be. They know nothing different.

Speaker 2 (27:25):
It's like imagine Snoop Dog was like, I'm shutting down
the government because people smoke too much weed.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
We're like, yo, Snoop, Snoop.

Speaker 9 (27:33):
Hey ever looked in a mirror.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
Snoop and Willie Nelson are like, we got to shut
down the government.

Speaker 1 (27:39):
There's too much weed. We can't have it. Like, no
one takes them serious.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
You know what I was talking about earlier before you
got here, is like you can tell when it's the fall. Now,
there are a lot of rituals, you know, people go
on the hay ride, the pumpkin picking and all that.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
My annual rituals.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
Now it's like college football, pumpkin products and the media
pretending about Barack Obama's endorsements. Match does anybody? No one cares,
But we do this every October. I was just watching
everybody do it all out number and I know they've
got to discuss it, and we usually decide no, it
doesn't matter. But they do this every year. He comes
out to do two dates because he's tired of getting
picked on Michelle's podcast, and they're.

Speaker 1 (28:15):
Like, this is going to move the needle.

Speaker 2 (28:17):
But I don't know that it's moving the needle unless
you talk about into the arms of the donors.

Speaker 6 (28:22):
He is so irrelevant at this point. I mean, it
must really sting to be Barack Obama. And the sad
part about it is, had he done a good job
as president man, could he have been historic, he would
still be very relevant. Right now, I'm trying to figure
out a time in the future when Donald Trump's endorsement
won't matter. I don't know that I can foresee you one,

(28:43):
to be honest with you, I feel like, for you know,
and for the rest of his life, getting Donald Trump's
endorsement is going to mean everything. But Barack Obama is
totally irrelevant and he doesn't move the needle. You're right,
in fact, in some ways it might actually be detrimental
to some people at this point. And that's the real
question on the Democrat side, Jimmy, is who is actually

(29:03):
going to move the needle, Whose endorsement is actually going
to make a debt with the voters, and who cares?
Who's their leader? What are they doing? That's their problem.
They really have nothing. They don't know who their leader is,
they don't know what their policies are, they don't have
a platform, they don't know anything.

Speaker 9 (29:20):
And so it's left.

Speaker 6 (29:21):
Room for people like Mom Donnie to surface as the
probably future mayor of New York City, and that's a
really scary place to be in the United States.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
Yeah, but as a former cab driver, I like the
idea that he's going to reduce traffic because women won't
be allowed to drive during under some of.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
His belief system.

Speaker 2 (29:40):
So thinking of my homies, yeah, thinking I'm thinking of
my homies back in the saddle.

Speaker 1 (29:45):
Those guys are going to have it a little bit
easier during than day.

Speaker 2 (29:48):
Maybe we lose congestion pricing because forty five.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
Percent of the drivers are no looker on the streets.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
I kid, but it is bananas, And you know, I
think the truth is on that side.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
None of the they all know it's wrong.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
Like you know, the party leaders, if we were to
identify some party leaders are reluctant to to associate with
him because they really don't want to own this. But
if he does win, they're really not going to have
a choice because if Mom Donnie wins, isn't that kind
of the proof that the AOC wing of the party
is in power now?

Speaker 9 (30:18):
It probably is, and that's terrifying.

Speaker 6 (30:21):
And it's so it was so obvious that it was
heading in this direction, and those in the party who
had any sort of power left whatsoever should have identified
this a long time ago and stamped it out.

Speaker 9 (30:33):
But they didn't do that. And so I think you're right.

Speaker 6 (30:36):
I think that there are so many people, also Jimmy,
who were leaving this party.

Speaker 9 (30:40):
We've seen such a huge shift.

Speaker 6 (30:42):
If you look at the people who have become registered
Republicans versus registered Democrats over the course of the past
four years, it's staggering. Republicans have picked up over a
million and a half new voters, plus in a lot
of places. Democrats are at a deficit in that department,
and a lot of people are looking at this part
and they're saying, I can't really align with anything anymore

(31:03):
that these people are, you know, purporting to stand for.
So I think that they're going to continue to lose voters.
I think some of their positions have been absolutely insane,
and whenever all they're doing is going against whatever it
is Donald Trump is doing and wants to do, which
are all good things for the country and for the world,
you look pretty dumb. And so I think it's going

(31:24):
to continue to lose them voters and as we had
in the next ball. That's a okay with me.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
Hey, there it is, and and I'll just I'll be damned, okay,
if we're going to have a king, all right, no kings.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
It's my favorite thing in the world. They're protesting no kigs.
I was saying this yesterday.

Speaker 2 (31:40):
The one thing I will give them credit for is
if you looked at the people attending those protests, a
lot of them look like they were alive.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
The last time we had a king.

Speaker 6 (31:51):
Was a big boomer crowd. There are a lot of
boomers out there.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
It was really du Yeah, Jimmy.

Speaker 6 (31:57):
They either looked like they were alive the last time
there was a king, or they looked completely ridiculous, like
if you want us to take you seriously, then don't
come out dressed as a furry.

Speaker 1 (32:07):
I hate to be the.

Speaker 9 (32:08):
One to say it, but no one.

Speaker 6 (32:10):
Takes that seriously. These people looked absolutely nuts. And then
you have the elected officials like Corey Booker and Adam Schiff, who,
by the way, if I could ever get Adam Schiff
on my view, oh, I have a lot of questions
for that guy.

Speaker 9 (32:26):
He has the goal.

Speaker 6 (32:27):
He has to get out there in front of an
audience or a camera at this point, after all the
nonsense and fake crap that he's pushed out there. Wow,
so we expect those two to of course be out
among that crowd.

Speaker 2 (32:39):
Amazing, so funny, Lara Trump, you still got it, pal
looking forward to the Dolphin Jump this Saturday night, Saturday.

Speaker 9 (32:45):
Yeah, get ready, all.

Speaker 2 (32:46):
Right, ready, tell Flipper hello, I'll see you soon. All right,
my friend, the best, the legendary Lara Trump.

Speaker 1 (32:52):
There she goes. There we go back after this, the
show that welcomes people from both sides of the aislele.
I don't care where you come from. I don't care
what color you are. I don't care about there.

Speaker 4 (33:03):
It is.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
Fox Across Americo is Jimmy Failer bringing you a three
hour audio masterpiece sponsored by the fine folks at Previgen.

Meeter are heading out to Fargo. You didn't hear that

I will be in Pittsburgh. If you're listening on WJAS,
No excuses, Beaver County Radio, let's go okay. November twenty eighth,

(33:54):
San Louis Obispo. That show's about to be sold out.
We're definitely had a schedule there, but that's a Friday
night November twenty eighth, Thanksgiving weekend. And November twenty ninth,
we were in Durango. Haygirl in Durango in Vegas. Place
opened five months ago. It is gorgeous. It is far
too classy for my act. But the first show sold out,
so we have added a second show, which is gonna

(34:16):
sell out. So if you're gonna get those tickets, you're
gonna get them at Fox across America dot com. Now
some of you might say to me, Jimmy, what about
that show at the Palm Beach Kennel Club you've been
talking about. Well, I am done promoting that show because
it did sell out already. So the Kettle Club, I
will be there, I just won't be there to sell
any additional tickets. Twenty twenty six dates are also up
as well. Saint Louis, Wichita, Kansas. Reno's coming back on sale.

(34:40):
You know Hagar's town. It's all happened. There's a lot happened.
It's a lot in the Hamper, Okay. And we have
a big move coming with WIBX upstate as well. So
I will keep you posted on all that. We're adding
more dates. We've got a lot going on. We're trying
to make it work. But right now, as we have
this conversation and we put the sandwich board down for
a minute, the Secretary of Transportation and a guy by
the name of Sean Duffy. He is embroiled in all

(35:04):
kinds of chicanery right now. He's going to join us
at the tippy top of the next hour because he
is in a standoff with California Governor Gavin Newsom.

Speaker 3 (35:12):
This guy's a serious as.

Speaker 2 (35:14):
Okay, Duffy taking forty million dollars in federal funding away
from California because California does not want to comply with
his order that all truck drivers need to be legal
American citizens who speak English.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
Okay, Gavin Newsom saying no.

Speaker 2 (35:30):
And it really gives you some insight just the level
to which the Democrats go to protect illegal immigrants in
this country, because it shows you just how much they
depend on them for other things. And I'll explain those
other things at the top of the next hour with
an actual United States Cabinet secretary, and then we'll sit
down with Wesley Hunter, who's running for the Senate in Texas.

Speaker 1 (35:51):
It's a stack deck of a show today. We've had
Bret Baher, We've had Lara Trump.

Speaker 2 (35:55):
You know, basically, the producers sat down this morning and
they were like, the less these people here of Jimmy,
the better. So who knows who else is going to
join the show in the next hour. It's I'm not complaining.
These are phenomenal guests. The party rolls on when we
come back the final hour of Fox Across American.
