Fox Across America with Jimmy flo Oh yes it is,
and we have a huge hour. Come in your way.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
He is so foolish, this guy.

Speaker 1 (00:14):
No, I'm not. I feel good about it. Brian Brenberg
is going to be here to talk about the economy.
We're going to get into some manufactured hysteria out of
the Democratic Party and members of the media. And yes,
it's become a go to topic on the show. Right now.
We have a socialist running from mayor in New York
City and if he tanks the local economy, guess who's
bailing him out. You are, the tax paying American citizen.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
Just hold on to your pocket book.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
They just put a lean on your money, your savings
in your retirement.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
Amen.

you get your first year free on us and you
get to watch Punchlines and Patriots with Jimmy Fala and

(01:05):
Sean Hannity. It is streaming on the platform to day,
and I gotta be honest, it's a winner. It's fantastic.
It's a nice celebration of America and our political differences.
And in no way, shape or form is it designed
to alienate liberals. Okay, you might have a laugh at
some of the things going on in your party. You're
certainly going to have a laugh at some of the
things going on in my party. Because as a comedian,

(01:27):
I don't get on stage and go, oh, I gotta
protect the Republicans. No, ma'am. The only thing you got
to protect is the punchline. He's a lousy dad, but
he's right. Amen. But as we get underway in this hour,
something I wanted to spend a little time on, and
it's really fascinating. We had Steve Hilton on earlier in
the show today. He's running to be the next governor
of California, and we were talking about how all of

(01:50):
the Democrats have not subjected themselves to any self reflection
whatsoever after the loss of Kamala Harris. And what I
mean by that is Donald Trump on the issues. You know,
you keep hearing these things like Trump went on all
the podcasts. That's why one No, it's not. He won
because people preferred his ideas over Kamala Harris. Kamanda is

(02:16):
a soul stupid. One of Donald Trump's most effective commercials
was Kamala Harris's for They them Donald Trump is for
you And what was that about? It was about Kamala
Harris telling an interviewer that she bragged that she had
changed a law in California that would give transgender prison inmates,

(02:40):
migrant transgender prison inmates, a free taxpayer funded surgery. She
changed the law to make that happen. I'm gonna play
the clip. Trump used this as his most effective commercial
on the campaign trail.

Speaker 4 (02:55):
When I was Attorney General, I learned that the California
Department of Correction, which was a client of mine I
didn't get to choose my.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Clients, a client of the Attorney General, a.

Speaker 4 (03:05):
Client of the Attorney General of the Office of Attorney General,
that they were standing in the way of surgery for
prisoners for prisoners. And there was a specific case. And
when I learned about the case, I worked behind the
scenes to not only make sure that that transgender woman
got the services she was deserving. So it wasn't only

(03:27):
about that case. I made sure that they changed the
policy in the state of California so that every transgender
inmate in the prison system would have access to the
medical care that they desired and need.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
I mean, my goodness, gracious.

Speaker 5 (03:44):
What sort of sad, twisted and tiny leftist echo chimba
does that woman belong to?

Speaker 1 (03:51):
I mean, not as reality. Trump took her policies, put
them on blast, and made this issue issues. That's what
he made the issue. The central issue of the twenty
twenty four election were the issues. It was substantive. Like
twenty sixteen, the Democrats ran on Trump's tweets. Trump ran
on issues jobs, the border, and everything like that. But

(04:11):
the central issue in twenty twenty was Trump's character. As
much as he tried to run on some of his
record of governance, three of his four years as president
were obstructed by the Mueller probe. We had a global
pandemic going on and what looked like a full societal
collapse in the aftermath of the George Floyd riots, and

(04:32):
that really was the issue. The Democrats ran on systemic
racism and said Donald Trump never condemned neo Nazis and
white nationalists in Charlottesville. That's what they said at every commercial.

Speaker 3 (04:43):
And you had people and I'm not talking about the
neo Nazis and the white nationalists because they should be
condemned totally.

Speaker 1 (04:49):
But for some reason, the media never ever, ever, ever,
once acknowledged that piece of analysis. In the old fine
people on both side, Journalism in this country is dead
and buried. But when twenty twenty four rolled around, it
was an election of issues, and Republicans had the better
ideas for the transgender thing nobody. Eighty percent of the

(05:12):
public does not want men in women's room women's bathrooms,
does not want men competing against women, does not want
gender reassignment surgery for underage kids eighty percent or on
the Trump side of the argument, okay, Defunding the police
a hell no, Okay, that's a ninety three percent issue
for Trump. Securing the border sixty percent of Americans prefer

(05:33):
mass deportations of everyone here legally. These are Trump issues.
The cutting taxes, okay, the ending the wars he the
only issue, the only issue the Democrats held this slight
issue on slightly on was abortion. And here's the news flash.
It played no role in the twenty twenty four election.
Why because repealing Roe versus Wade sent abortion back to

(05:54):
each individual state, meaning they weren't losing a voice on
this issue, they all gaining one Roe versus weighed at
the federal level, meant nobody could vote on abortion one
way or the other ever again. But by repealing it,
the liberal states got to keep abortion. The conservative states
got to restrict access a little bit. But by and large,
you get an abortion anywhere you want in America. Okay,

(06:15):
you might have to drive an extra ten miles and
pay a toll, but if you're killing a baby, the
least you can do is caugh up the six bucks.
I don't know what to tell you, okay, but the
reality is the issues favored the Republicans, and in the
aftermath of the twenty twenty four election, rather than Democrats saying, hey,
maybe we should change the border policy, maybe we should
change the spending policy, Maybe we should stop men from

(06:36):
jumping in the pool and competing against female swimmers. But
they didn't do that. Zoron, mom, Donnie. Is the end
of that old cliche? Do you know the old street
joke about you know, it's not even a joke. But
a guy walks into a restaurant and he orders a
bowl of food, and the waiter comes over and guy

(06:57):
goes when this food sucks, And the waiter goes and
tells the manager. He's like, wow, Guy table two says
the food sucks, and the manager goes, well, he's in luck.
We'll give them bigger portions. That's what the Democrats are doing.
Voters said to the Democrats at the end of the
twenty twenty four election, Wow, this food sucks, and the
Democrats said, well, you're in luck. We got bigger portions

(07:17):
coming zoron, Mom, Donnie is a bigger portion of everything.
Kamala Harris just did wrong more he's promising free everything.
He can't do it at the local level as mayor,
but that's what he's running on. Hey you're gonna get
free housing. Hey we're gonna freeze tuition. You know, all
of those things he's doing are a blueprint for a

(07:38):
larger strategy in twenty twenty eight if he wins. That's
why I keep bringing it up, And what I want
you to understand is this lack of self reflection is
causing them all to go down. Some really stupid roads.
Let me play you this one. This is Democrats with
a straight face saying there might not be mid terms
because Trump is going to cancel them. Dy Abrams said this.

(08:00):
Stacy Abram said, Trump is going to cancel the midterms. Scott,
the only thing Stacy Abrams knows about canceling is a
gym membership. I mean, come on, Stacy Abrams is fully
but this is the jig they have to go on
TV and say this. This is clip nineteen.

Speaker 5 (08:15):
Protest is the counter narrative. It says, I see what
you're doing, and I believe I have not only the right,
but the responsibility to point out that what you are
doing is wrong.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
But there's a cost to it.

Speaker 5 (08:26):
And I think what is so important in this moment
is that we're seeing people protest, not simply and in
co it ways, but in very directed ways, saying that
illegal behavior by those who are holding authority should not
be tolerated, even if the same authority is willing to
send armed agents and marines after you. It is critical

(08:47):
that we protest in this moment, and I know it
can feel sometimes inadequate to the task, but there is
nothing that hits the ear of an autocrat sharper than
the sound of people saying we can see you and
we refuse to submit.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
Put that cook it down now, oh, Stacy Abrams. Everybody
protesting Trump's policies is a paid protester or just a
loser like Trantifa protester. The same people who showed up
to the Free Palestine, Okay, that showed up to the
anti ice These are the same that showed up to
defund the police. These are the same people who threw

(09:23):
Kansas soup and barricaded the bridges in the name of
climate change. They're the same people every time. It's just
loser white kids as parents have a lot of money
so they don't have to work, and they show up
and tell you they were pressed. Guys, Everybody telling you
it's bad here is pretending. There are people who get
paid to pretend it's bad here, and then there are
gullible people who actually truly believe it is and rather

(09:43):
than going to work and working harder and becoming the
thing they want to be. To understand how inspirational Barack
Obama's story should be if we were being honest about
the America we live in. Barack Obama was born in
what nineteen fifty nine to mixed race parents. The odds
of a baby of mixed race being born in Hawaii

(10:03):
by way of Kansas City becoming president someday in this
country at the time he was born, we're literally one
in a number. We can't even quantify a quad trillion,
one in a gazillion, whatever you want to tell me.
The odds are of Barack Obama growing up to be president.
But this country evolved so much and became so tolerant

(10:27):
and became so thoroughly integrated. When you look around America now,
it doesn't matter where you are, okay, everything is integrated politics,
pop culture, professional sports, entertainment, and yes, adult entertainment. Hubba hubba.
It's all very integrated everywhere in the world. And that's why,

(10:50):
by and large, we're not even remotely close to a
racist society anymore. I'm not telling you there aren't racists
out there, but it's not tolerable in mainstream society because
racism was a byproduct of ignorance. People hated and feared
things they didn't understand. But when you integrate society and
our cultures live amongst each other, everybody comes to realize
we're all the same. It doesn't matter what you worship. Okay,

(11:12):
it doesn't matter what you're sexually attracted to, it doesn't
matter what your religious background is. We all need money
to pay the bills. We all want a place to live,
and we'd like to feel safe doing those things. And
you want to have fun. You want to eat the
good food, maybe watch a movie, have a left, You
want to get paid, you want to get laid the
whole barnyard jamboree. The reality is identity. Politics tries to
convince you that there are different Americas for different people.

(11:35):
But where the Democrats lost the common sense discussion was Obama. Okay,
everything you ever hear out of the race pimps is
refuted by the fact that we had a black president
served not one, but two terms, and he wasn't even
any good at the job. I mean, I don't see
you doing any better in the booty department. But that's
why we are where we are now. Okay, the Democrats

(11:56):
tonight are going to stand down while Major League Baseball
returns its All Star Game to Atlanta, Georgia. Now, if
you remember, Atlanta Georgia removed okay, lost the All Star Game.
Major League Baseball moved the All Star Game to Colorado
because Joe Biden said a voter ID law was Jim

(12:17):
Crow on steroids.

Speaker 6 (12:20):
This is Jim Crow on steroids what they're doing in
Georgia and forty other states.

Speaker 1 (12:25):
I mean, could you even imagine with the approach to
the issue being what okay? If you ask a black
person to show a government ID, that is going to
cause greater voter suppression than the violence of the Jim
Crow era, you know, And they'd burned down your house
if he tried the voter they'd attack you at the polls.
In the democratic condescending worldview, a dripping condescension of Black America,

(12:50):
asking them to show a voter ID was worse than
Jim Crow. And they used that as a justification to
take the All Star Game from Atlanta, the second biggest
black metropolitan area in America, and move it out to Denver. Atlanta,
fifty one percent of the businesses in downtown Atlanta are
black owned. In Denver, Colorado, nine percent of the businesses

(13:11):
are black owned. But it's run by a Democratic governor,
so don't worry about it. And that's what they did.
They shafted the black people in America under the false
pretense that they couldn't get an ID. Guys, do you
know how much you're infantilizing a community of people when
you tell them they can't they're not capable of getting
an ID. Okay, if you don't have an ID in
America in the present day that we live in. You

(13:33):
cannot drive a car. Okay. You can't get a vaccine,
remember the vaccine. We had to have it, or you're
killing your neighbors. So I guess they have blood on
their hands because they're not capable of getting an ID.
You can't board a plane. You can't pick up tickets
at the baseball game. By the way, thank you very much,
Major League Baseball. If you go to a baseball game,
you need a driver's license that shows you're twenty one
to get a beer. You need a driver's license or

(13:55):
some form of government ID to pick up your tickets
at the ballpark. Okay, you do. That's how it works.
So this idea that a Major League Baseball played along
with these shenanigans because at the height of our race bating,
they could get away with it. But lo and behold,
the game is back in the same stadium tonight. And
no one's even saying a word. They're just pretending it

(14:16):
never happened. Hey, I know this style was different back then.
We said it was Jim Crow stuff. It's not Jim
Crow stuff. And oh, by the way, you know that
law they passed that was supposed to be Jim Crow
on steroids. Between the midterms and the twenty twenty four
presidential election, Georgia's passed two elections resulted in their highest
voter turnout in the history of the state of Georgia.

Speaker 4 (14:42):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
But back to why the Democrats are losing. They're still
trying to tell you that where this racist, oppressive society
for minorities at the same time that we have twenty
one million minorities trying to make it into our country
because they know life is better here. And we're in
this moment right now where the Democrats are incapable of
self reflection and acknowledging they were wrong. Like Tonight's All

(15:07):
Star Game should be an opportunity for the Democrats to go,
we got that one wrong. But we're always looking out
for Black America and we're always trying to bring people together.
They're not doing that. They're just pretending it never happened.
And because they're not changing their policies, and because they're
not taking the l publicly anywhere on TV okay, it's
forcing voters to take it for them. And that's why
they are so much further from power right now than

(15:30):
Atlanta is from Denver. When it comes to the All
Star Game, the show that connects you to people in
high places, it's like the most important man in the
world staying in here. There it is Fox Across America
with Jimmy Fla. We've got Brian Brenberg around the corner.
We got to talk about Hansy Andy Cuomo staying in
the mayor's race. Andy, Andy, here's the announcement yesterday. I

(15:53):
love this so much Clip twenty one.

Speaker 7 (15:56):
Hello, I'm Andrew Cuomo. And unless you've been under a rock,
you probably know that the Democratic primary did not go
the way I had hoped. But as my grandfather used
to say, when you get knocked down, learn the lesson
and pick yourself back up and get in the game.
And that is what I'm going to do. The fight
to save our city isn't over. Only thirteen percent of

(16:19):
New Yorkers voted in the June primary. The general election
is in November, and I am in it to win it.

Speaker 1 (16:26):
Oh man, you are a sad, strange little man, Andy Cuomo.
I don't have any bread. Okay. Now, the truth is
everybody I know that's in New York and it's man.
I've nationalized the hell out of this story. People listened
it on Kid Out in Idaho Falls, the Richard Meacham

(16:47):
folks that are hanging out of bear world right now
with my girl Grace Latham like markets that you would say,
like what the hell? Who cares about the freaking mayor's
race in New York City? Well, I'll tie if you listen, Koal,
you know, listen wherever you are, Okay, you better care
because this is the blueprint for twenty twenty eight. And

(17:07):
you know I detest Cuomo. As Curtis Lewis said yesterday
on the show, he's slapping fannies and killing granny's. That
was his m o, his governor. But somebody needs to
step in here, consolidate support and make this an issues
based election, or Mom, Donnie is going to stick the
whole country for the bill for what becomes of New
York City. It's a mess, and he is, of course
the preferred candidate of Alexandria Ocassio Cortes. Aoc is a dope.

(17:33):
That being said, I am not an economics professor. Brian
Brenberg is. I do not host a show on Fox
Business for two hours a day. Brian Benberg does. My
show would be on Fox Business bidnes apostrophe, like the
kind of transactions you don't get a receipt for. That's
my background as a cab drivers street stuff. But this
is stuff you'll have to pay for, and we're going

(17:55):
to discuss it with Brenburg when we come back on
Fox Across America.

Speaker 5 (17:58):
I'm telligent.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (18:01):
I mean, i'd say the best joke at tonight.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
Is this guy's jacket right here. I mean, it's kind
of embarrassing, but he pays my grocery bill, so I'm
thankful for it, but yeah, it's not the best. Thank
you for Lincoln for showing the world what I'd look
like if I was cuter and skin of here.

Speaker 4 (18:22):
You know.

Speaker 1 (18:24):
Wow, Fox Across America with Jimmy Fayler. That's a live
clip from Punchlines in Patriots, Lincoln Phala getting on stage
taking shots of his dad. Brenburg, what is this world coming.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
To It's an opportunistic world.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
Lincoln tried. You know, I appreciate about Lincoln. Brian Brenberg's
in studio, so he's on stage in Hannity and Ainsley.
This is how Punchlines and Patriots ended. And if you
guys are listening around the country, you're a veteran, you're
getting your first year of Fox Nation free on us.
Go subscribe to Fox Nation. Watch Punchlines and Patriots came
out today. Is at the end of the comedy show.
Bren Berg, you know, everybody in that arena, it's like

(18:59):
three thousand screaming homicidal lunatics. It's a monster truck rally.
It's like half of the audience responses are just ye.
He's not even laughing, not even cheering. It was awesome.
It was like pro wrestling in a monster truck rally
with jokes. It was amazing. I loved it so much.
But Ainsley comes on stage at the end of Soak
it Up because the crowd loves her, so she actually

(19:19):
surprised myself and Sean. But at that point I'm not
going to stand on stage with him and his wife
like I'm third wheeling of comedy dates. So I'm like,
you know, I have a wife and kid here, and
it makes perfect sense to me to bring them on
stage for the finale. But then the first thing that
happens is Ainsley's like, Lincoln, do you want to tell
a joke? And of course he's only going to tell
one about me. But what I respect about the kid

(19:41):
is if you notice he hedged his bet. He goes like,
I want to make I'm in this jacket's embarrassing. But
he pays my grocery bills.

Speaker 2 (19:48):
I thought that was a nice touch.

Speaker 1 (19:49):
What a diplomatic way to cut a man down. They
might have edited out a line about pride month. By
the way, from what I just heard, well.

Speaker 2 (19:58):
Let's see.

Speaker 3 (19:58):
I like what he did there because he was signaling
I am coming for you. Yeah, yeah, but only when
I can afford my groceries.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
He knows, Man, I.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
Can afford my groceries, all bets are off. Yeah. At
that point, you're gonna get it.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
Yeah, once they have those mom Donnie, government controlled groceries.
Lincoln's making his move on Fox.

Speaker 3 (20:14):
He's just waiting for the socialist man.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
He's in on that. This this has never been better
under a social Lincoln.

Speaker 1 (20:20):
Is that a mom, Donnie bumper sticker? What's going on here?
I'm not happy. We got Brian Bremberg and studio. We're
excited about it. It's, you know, final final hour of
what has been an absolute masterpiece of a show. This guy,
I don't know. I thought it was going good. Hammer
was here, Steve Hilton was here.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
Oh wow, the Hemmer Hilton duo.

Speaker 1 (20:39):
He coveted Himmery that's stocked in the Malone Hammer. A
lot of people, they would say the Admiral David Robinson
and Tim Duncan are probably the closest thing our generation
is scene to Hammer Hilton. White men can jump if
you give them time, give him some springs in their shoes.
But we have one. This is what I was talking
to Hammer about. We come full circle on the show

(21:01):
Major League All Star Game tonight, and I'm excited. You
grew up as did I, and this was the centerpiece
of summer programming for you.

Speaker 2 (21:08):
Was it? Oh my gosh, yeah, so much fun.

Speaker 3 (21:10):
I mean, I'm I'm you know, we're talking like the
bo Jackson, So I told him in my pocket maddingly.
I mean, these are the guys that we're seeing in
that lineup, which and you know, in a world without
social media and constant highlights, you don't see these guys
very often. No, So like when I'm watching and it's
interesting when I'm watching bo Jackson, I mean, I've probably
only seen him once that season, maybe I caught a

(21:33):
Twins game and so and so what's awesome is those
guys I think at that air in that era really
still cared about this game a lot like they were
when they were heading for home plate.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
They're like, I'll do what I have to do to
score this run.

Speaker 4 (21:48):
Guy.

Speaker 3 (21:49):
Well, Pete Rose is what I'm thinking about. It's a
little before my time. But like bo Jackson, like he
he wants to crush the.

Speaker 2 (21:55):
Home run because he wants to win the ball game.

Speaker 1 (21:56):
Amen. And if you remember this, I told Hammer at
the top of the show. So, anybody who's been with
us for the first three hours, I'm sorry, first and foremost,
I hope everything's okay in your life that you're still here.
You do better, I mean, man, But I said to
Hammer as a kid, my favorite All Star moment was
Bo Jackson leading off that home that All Star game
in eighty nine in Anaheim, YEP. With a home run
the deep center a footnote to history. Because Bo Jackson

(22:19):
was the MVP of the game, Wade Boggs hit one
right after him. They went back to back to Bogs. Yes,
they went back to back to open that All Star
game and they gave Bo the MVP. I think he
had he had a nice throw in one of the game.
But that was that era when it was so exciting.
Can I read you some lineups just so we can
take you guys back.

Speaker 2 (22:37):
I'm to lose all focus here, but.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
Let's no, it's for the best. You guys are gonna
love it. Let's start with the National League, because the
American League was home big year for the Cardinals. Out
of the gate, they had Vince Coleman in center, Ozzie
Smith playing short reds this is for hammer, Chris Sabo
at third. With the Gobable, the Pirates had one hundred
and sixty five pound left fielder named Barry Bonds, who

(23:00):
size seven and a half had at the time, later
went on to be a nine and three quarters. Do
what you want with that information. I'm not sure they're
in anahunt okay first base for the National League. He
was a Giant ultimately became a Texas ranger Will clob Oh. Yeah,
in right field the Padre Tony gwent of course. Second baseman,

(23:22):
also a giant was Robbie Thompson, a lot of representation
on the West Coast. Benito Santiago catching for the Padres
guys out from his knees. I'll never forget this. The
starter had thirteen wins at the break. Rick Rushell was
a giant.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
Another giant.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
Yeah, it was kind of a chubby giant.

Speaker 2 (23:39):
I remember it well, how about it?

Speaker 1 (23:42):
So let me tell you on the other side of
the aisle the home team American League goal Stars Ricky Henderson,
Ricky just going to be Ricky Ricky, and left field
for the A's Harold Reynolds.

Speaker 2 (23:52):
Playing second from the Mariners.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
That is so good? Why is anyone listening to our show?
Changed the I'm kidding third course jose Canseco and Write
McGuire and the Bash Brothers Bo Jackson representing the Royals.
They dhed him in the game to start, Kirby Pocket
and center rip in it short, I would probably get
this if you made me guess, so I can ask

(24:17):
you to guess. I'm not. I don't need to put
you on the spot. But i'll give you the hint.
You'll probably get it anyway. A's catcher Steinbach, Yeah, bang Brinnesota,
of course. Yeah, but he was the catcher. Pretty sick, right, dude.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
That was eighty nine and I.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
Can I just tell you because we did not have
social media, guys, baseball was just all we had, and
this opportunity to see see them on the same field
was so electric. We didn't have any league play.

Speaker 2 (24:40):
No, no, that's right, we didn't.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
The playoffs weren't as expansive. It was just the American
League Eese, the American League West. There was there Central,
there was no wild Card, there was no playing game.
It was a very primitive take on baseball comparative to
what we know now. And I will remember for as
long as I live Bo Jackson hitting that home run,
because back I mean, it was one of the two
highlights in the game they played at seven thousands. I

(25:04):
saw him, I mean, in the postgame interview. They show
it and then they'd ask him about it, then they'd
interrupt him to show it again, and you know, went
on and on, and I consider that I always tell
you this. We've said it on the show a thousand times.
America probably peaked in the late eighties, but it is
very possible we get back. And one of the keys
to getting back I mentioned this earlier. Okay, as we're

(25:25):
playing in Atlanta tonight, it's the same stadium they took
the game out of four years ago for bogus reasons,
and instant replay has gotten us back our All Star game.
I love this. I think they go win.

Speaker 2 (25:37):
Dude, I love well.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
I hate that it happened, and I love that they
reversed it. But the crazy thing is what it was
literally what four or three years ago.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
It was twenty twenty one because it was the first
summer of the Bible years ago.

Speaker 3 (25:52):
Four years we have reversed this the most inane, well,
one of the most inane baseball moves I've ever heard of,
moving it out of Atlanta. How can we, as a
self respecting nation, how can we, four years later, play
this game and the league and all these guys try
to pretend like four years ago.

Speaker 1 (26:12):
And they didn't do it. It's nuts. Well, you have
to be like insane as a polity. Yeah, but what
we're doing this thing now is we're just pretending it
didn't happen. Yes, it's the old shaggy It wasn't me
and it's funny. One reporter asked about it yesterday to
Pat McAfee and Dave Roberts, managing the Dodgers in the
National League team.

Speaker 4 (26:31):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
And she was asking from the standpoint of like, no,
it shouldn't be back here, like she's still living along
with you, yes, And she's like, you said we should
use our voices. What changed? You know what changes? We're
having a far more honest conversation than we were at
the time because they were. Joe Biden famously brandished this
as you remember as Jim Crow on is.

Speaker 6 (26:52):
Jim Crow on steroids? What they're doing in Jimmy and
Georgia and forty other.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
Stick Yeah, the other Coe, he goes, not Jim Crow,
It's Jim Eagle. That was the famous.

Speaker 3 (27:00):
The only thing that happened between then and now is
a record number.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
Of people voted in Georgia. More people voted in Georgia.

Speaker 3 (27:09):
What are you fighting for for people to not vote
because they voted Georgia.

Speaker 1 (27:13):
Do you remember when Stacy Amram goes, no, you don't
get it. They're still suppressing the vote. You just don't
see it with numbers like this. That's like a Yogi
bearra ism. Nobody goes to that restaurant anymore. It's too credited.
We are wrong.

Speaker 3 (27:25):
We have a cuty run by Yogi Bear thinking without
without any of the talent.

Speaker 2 (27:30):
Yogi Bear was a good baseball player.

Speaker 1 (27:32):
This man won thirteen championships. If you're listening on ninety
seven one FM, go drive up the hill in Saint
Louis and shout out Yogi's childhood home. Go get a
nice Italian meal on the hill.

Speaker 2 (27:45):
That's right right across. Who do you live across from? Gergiolers?

Speaker 1 (27:49):
I believe so. Yeah, Joe Garagiola.

Speaker 2 (27:51):
Yeah but Garagiola go say it like a midwestest.

Speaker 1 (27:54):
Fine, but go go go shout out the hill. If
you listened on ninety seven one FM talk because it's true,
she is a yogiism. Yes, you can't see the suppression
because the turnout numbers.

Speaker 2 (28:06):
Are so high.

Speaker 1 (28:08):
You can't. You know, the thing about Jimmy is you
can't tell how much weight he lost because he's up
twelve pounds after vacation. You're like, well, yeah, that's the point,
but let me playing this.

Speaker 3 (28:17):
And the worst thing about those kind of people is
that they want to run America's biggest cities and biggest city,
Like that's it, Like they don't aim for the small stuff.
They're like, I think that way, and I want to
run in a city of eight million people.

Speaker 1 (28:28):
I wo the whole thing. I tell things. So I'm
gonna play this clip Jen Ramos Eisen. She's a reporter
and she's asking why we're in Atlanta after the law
was passed. But she's not a conservative, being like, yeah, guys,
how come we're here? You said it was racist? Eat
you know, eat Crow on this one, Eat Jim Crow
on this one. No, No, She's saying, the struggle continues.
Listen to this clip thirty nine.

Speaker 8 (28:49):
There is a law on the books here in Atlanta
that is a voter suppression law that Joe Biden has
called Jim Crow of the twenty first century Dave in
twenty twenty one Network special, you said, it's about being
relentless with our voices and speaking up and this is
not an isolated moment and it needs to be something
talked about on an ongoing basis and being relentless with it.

(29:11):
What happened to being relentless with our voices?

Speaker 1 (29:14):
And why are we in.

Speaker 8 (29:15):
Atlanta when this law is still on the books, and
it is a dangerous situation to be a journalist in Atlanta,
because Atlanta has attained.

Speaker 1 (29:22):
The most journalists by ice.

Speaker 2 (29:24):
Some of these these women are this are stupid.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
It's a dangerous situation to be a j Atlanta. And
it's it's but it's all pretend. And I guess the
reason I'm excited to see this game return to Atlanta
is because at the very least Major League Baseball NOS
and Corporate America knows they don't have to pretend anymore. Yeah,
and they were playing into something that was number one,
denying baseball. Okay, it's true superpower, which was escapeism and

(29:55):
a source of common culture.

Speaker 2 (29:56):
True.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
And number two, this all of this garbage and pretend
depression stuff was making it a lot harder in corporate
America because they were just teaching people to sue them.
You know, they were doing like you know, this is
why we discriminate this way in America's why we discriminated that. No,
baseball has nothing to do with that. Baseball discriminates against
people who can hit a curveball. That's what it discriminates against.

Speaker 3 (30:16):
But I tell you that The folks who want to
bring all that back are obviously still out there. Yeah,
like this, we're in a better place now. The battle,
I think that one of the keys is the kind
of the fight never ends because you give up a
little bit. Those folks are.

Speaker 2 (30:30):
Going to be back.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (30:31):
The voter suppression law that enhances turnout in Georgia is.

Speaker 2 (30:34):
Still in the books. What are you going to do
about it?

Speaker 3 (30:36):
People can't exercise their voices except in record numbers.

Speaker 1 (30:40):
What are you going to do about it?

Speaker 3 (30:41):
They're still there asking those questions almost literally.

Speaker 1 (30:45):
You know what, somewhere, and I want to believe in them.
Can toss them. I don't know that he will, but
we're going to make our best faith effort.

Speaker 2 (30:51):
Who's America's Earl Weaver right now? That's the thing I
think we know probably well.

Speaker 1 (30:56):
Yeah, that's the difference. Ear Weaver is not throwing bases
at the He's shooting missiles at Iran. We have a
president Earl week for right now. We'll be back to
discuss it next that you're listening to Fox Across America
with Jimmy There this Fox Across America with Jimmy Phalo.
We were in the bottom of the ninth with Brian Brenberg.
I had this James Carville clip. I don't even know

(31:18):
that I can dignify and play it, but he's basically
saying he's worried that Trump is going to cancel the midterms.
Now it's I understand, Like, I yeah, yeah, I always
say this every time I see James Carvill on TV.
He's dressed like he just got caught fondling himself in
the fitting room of a vass Pro shop. It's got
like the hat on in the camra I'm like, what
is this guy doing? If if he was in like

(31:38):
a fake News or Florida story on Fox News Saturday night,
you would guess Florida. You'd be like, this is some
Dobe guy in Florida smoking method a fitting room, and
it's like there's this this, this group of people. It's
like a cottage industry that Joy reads a part of
it now on the internet. Now that you're not doing
an MSF see Stacy Abens is doing it. They get shown,
they get booked to tell us like here it, you

(32:00):
know what I mean? They hear it. The Great Pumpkin
is gonna fly over and cancel the elections and lock
you all up and concentration camps in the military and
everything between. And there is a market for this. It's
a limited market, but it's like a weird type of
like costplay fetish. Well, you know what's so.

Speaker 2 (32:16):
Amazing about that market?

Speaker 3 (32:17):
For them, you don't have to be right, Yeah, you know,
they're you just have to be bombastic. They're not tuning
in to see if it turned out. Yeah, they're just
tuning in to hear you say it the first time. Yeah,
it's amazing, Like for them, what a racket.

Speaker 1 (32:33):
It's phenomenal.

Speaker 2 (32:33):
All they have to do is make up crazy stuff
and say it.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
Do you remember the old adagsed to be like Weatherman's
a good job, so you could be wrong all the
time and keep your job. No, No, liberal punditry is
a good job, James, don't ever forget. James Carville's most
widely read otbed in his career is this is why
Kamala Harris will win in a landslide. Now, in a
better world, a guy like that takes two years off,
he's not back on the next day. And that would

(32:58):
takes me back to the nineteen eighty All Star Game.
That's where we began this conversation. Back then, there would
be some type of societal come up and for subjecting
us to this type of ridiculousness. Yes, that's what we
need to bring back. That's when sliming was on. You
can't do that on television. You slimed somebody if they
said something sid on TV.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
Good point.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
How much better would cable news be with sliming.

Speaker 3 (33:19):
Man, I'd get slimmed a lot, but I would I
would embrace it.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
I would own being.

Speaker 1 (33:25):
Can you just sit there and you laugh? That thing
they used to do. But guys like him would be covered.
He would be covered. He would look like Slimer and
the Ghostbusters, remember that Little ghost What a great movie,
my favorite nineteen eighty nine reference. Then shout out if
you're listening to us in Fort Wayne, Indiana, my buddy
Stephen Florio who lives out there, who's a girl's volleyball
coach now, but it was my arch nemesis and whiff

(33:47):
a ball. He lived like six houses down the block
in eighty nine season. Do you know those kids that
could master a curve ball and it would break like
fifty feet, But he could locate it so consistently it
was actually easy to hit. As crazy as that sounds,
it would just land on the barrel of your bat.
But man, did it look like something coming in? Yes, well, anyway,
we went to a toy store in eighty nine. It

(34:07):
was called child World Toys. R. Russ had Jeffrey the Giraffe.
Child World had a guy called Peter Panda and it
was a panda on roller skates. That was their mascot.
It didn't last long, as you might imagine, but it
was a toy store shaped like a castle and Ghostbusters
were big in the eighties and they sold like that
green slime ecdoplasm stuff, of course, and we once we

(34:28):
got a lot of trouble for this because we had
strict parents and they were cops and everything like that.
But we went up to go. We went up to
child World and had an ecdoplasm fight after we did
to our credit purchase the green slime. Yeah, we probably
should have got outside, but we were so excited to
get our hands on it, because in nineteen eighty nine
I believed I had actual ghost ectoplasm and me and

(34:50):
Steven Florio started shooting at us in the store, and
Peter Panda skated in to exchect us and you know
when you talk about needing self awareness and stuff and
wake up calls, if a panda on roller skates is
telling you you're in the wrong, that's a moment of
self reflection.

Speaker 3 (35:06):
Bren Burgh, you know the beauty is that sounds like
a drug induced haze. Yeah, it's better than that. No,
it was a late nineteen eighties. That is why the
late nineteen eighties.

Speaker 1 (35:16):
So my resolute hope tonight when I say we peaked
in the eighties, you take it full circle. Is that
all of those race pims in Atlanta are greeted outside
the stadium by a roller skating panda who's like, sorry, folks,
division and identity politics are down that way. Do you
know that old joke?

Speaker 6 (35:33):
This?

Speaker 1 (35:33):
Forgive me for this, but people out there have heard it.
Stacy Abrams is driving to the Major League All Star Game.
She gets lost, stops off at the gas station in
Atlanta and says, excuse me, can you tell me how
to get the two eighty five? And he goes, yeah,
diet and exercise.

Speaker 3 (35:49):
Everybody there, It is to night, everybody, roller skating Penda's
coming back to get me happy.

Speaker 1 (35:56):
All Star Game America. We're back here to do it
again in the tomorrow, if they'll turn our mics on
after that. Until then, be a Republican, be a Democrat,
just don't be a This has been a podcast from
