Speaker 1 (00:05):
And here we are already the third hour of the
program known as The Morning Show with Preston Scott Common
Sense Amplified Show fifty four hundred. Huh, how about that?
That's hose can you see in Studio one A? And
I am here in Studio one B joined by on
the phone line, the entertainment editor with Brightbard dot com.

(00:25):
He's the author of the fifty Things books. He is
our dear friend, my dear friend, Jerome Hudson.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
High, Good morning to you, sir.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
Did you hear Trump dropped drop an F bomb on
Fox this morning?

Speaker 2 (00:38):
All right? We are so simpatico because I was just
going to inform you that I will not be dropping
any poems with any condo.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
I was shot.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
I just played it.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
I couldn't believe. I mean, aren't there aren't they facing
rep I mean, seriously, aren't they facing repercussions for playing that?

Speaker 2 (00:57):
No audience warning? Thankful my cat Oreo is old enough
to hear such language.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
I'm not.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
I was surprised at you. I long standing over the
air broadcast language rules. I think there's a fine every
time one of the Big four is uttered. But you
know the president is angry. I will say that there
there is a debate at the highest levels of even
in the bright part newsroom, ceasefires are only sought by

(01:31):
the side that's losing. This would be Iran. But this
maniacal regime obviously intended to break the ceasefire. The President's
just he's beyond belief, angry, He risks, you know us
service members lives with the B two bombs a few
days ago. He just wants it to be over. And

(01:59):
you certainly don't that every day, or I should say
hear that every day from the city president.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
Yeah, there's a part I know of America that's like, yeah,
there you go. That's why we love the guy, right,
I mean, that's that's part of the Trump factor, is
that they love that about him, that he.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
Just I'm laughing because I'm trying to imagine Kamala Harris
using the same language under similar situation.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
Well, I was going to ask you how bad would
things be watching the capitulation that historically Democrats have offered
Iran over the years. Ever since the shaw of Iran
in the late seventies, Democrat presidents have largely been funding

(02:43):
Iran in one form or another for their terrorism. We've
been paying hostages for hostages, We've been doing all kinds
of things. How bad would things be if Kamala had
been in the Oval office, callous.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
Of palace of cash and Obama years as part of
the twenty fifteen I ran deal subsidizing suicide bomber's families
pension fees. Basically, yeah, I Kamala Harris. I mean, she
can't even decide if she wants to get into a
California governor's race that I have to imagine she would

(03:20):
win pretty easily just on aim recognition alone, say for
the fact that you know, Democrat primary voters ranked her
at about one percent favorability when she ran for Pression
at twenty nineteen.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
Well, and then there's the fact that she's a flaming idiot.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
Oh really, do people say that about her? I haven't.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
I haven't heard or noticed even Democrats admit that point.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
Yeah, she can't, she can't make hard decisions. And you know,
maybe she doesn't want to be governor of California, but
I have to imagine that Kamala Harris want to be
I don't know, the governor chief of the fourth largest,
fifth largest economy on the planet. You know, relevant certainly
she's young and from a governor's mansion, she'd have a

(04:12):
platform maybe to springboard back in the presidential politics. So no,
I can't I honestly can't begin to think what Kamala
Harris's decision try would be if she was commander in chief,
because you know, I'm just thinking about what Iran might

(04:32):
be thinking. I'm thinking about what adamir Putin in Russia
might be thinking, or she in China. The calculation, to
me is quite simple when it comes to vision and
Prime Minister of Israel and the President of Israel and
their Armed Service, the IDEF like they don't want to
have to make the decision about what to do with

(04:54):
Iran when Iran finally has the nuclear gun to their head.
Kamalahara under those states, I don't even want to think
about it.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
All.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
We're going to talk about some other things here this
morning with Jerome Hudson, our dear friend from the entertainment
editor's room of Breitbart dot Com. Jerome, a singer named
Nesa Vanessa Hernandez, decided against the wishes of the Los
Angeles Dodgers, which that in and of itself is shocking,

(05:28):
decided to perform the national anthem lately in Spanish, basically
flipping a middle bird a finger to the Americans, the vets,
the people that served our country that are maybe in
the audience at a Dodgers game. No repercussions other than
you shouldn't have done that.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
Well, they asked not to sing in Spanish and did
it anyway.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
Why didn't they just pull the plug?

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Point? Look, Dodgers are worth I don't know, seven billion dollars.
I would vent my performers just to protect my property,
my brand. The Dodgers owner just talked to just talk
the lakes. I ney to put it alone. Let's just
say he's not with us on politics. And so I

(06:21):
think that's sort of the culture. But I just happened
to know that there are players on the team. I
think there are even so people in management that they
just don't want anything to do with the culture wars, right,
they just want to win titles. But the culture wars
are there, and they're kind of the heart at the

(06:43):
heartbeat of society in Los Angeles. And so this is
what you get. It's embarrassing, and it became a story
that usually I don't know I've been doing this for
almost twenty years. They kind of flame out after twenty
four hours. But this one I accept the signing stories
because Mesa, the singer, put up a fearful a sort

(07:06):
of It wasn't even apology. She said she was proud
that she violated I guess what the terms of a
contract that she signed. I'm pretty sure she got paid.
The going rate is at least ten thousand dollars to
perform the national anthem, that major, a major sporting event.
And she said she was proud. And so, you know,
the video I thought was just worth the millions of

(07:29):
brank Art readers to see because the arrogance there, it's just,
I was gonna say, stunning, but certainly not surprising. And
then the Dodgers came out and said, well, you know,
we asked her to do it. She didn't do it anyway,
and then she says Nessa says she's banned from ever
performing again at Dodger Stadium, and Dodgers said, no, that's

(07:50):
not true. So it's it's it's a mess, and it's
a freak show. And you know, this is the United
States of America. I believe that our anthem was written
in English. It's for the last time I checked, and
it just really gets to the unseiousness of the American
left today and the rules of rules right laws or laws,

(08:14):
but they just seem to have contempt and not really
care for any of it.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
Well, let's end on a good note. We got less
than sixty seconds. We mentioned this last week. Clayton Kershaw
put Genesis eleven with a little arrow pointing at the
rainbow on that I loved it. I loved it. He
wore the Dodgers cap, they put the rainbow colors on
the LA on the cap and he wrote hand wrote
in a white sharpie Genesis eleven.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
Yeah. And again, I won't say too much, but Clayton
Hurst was one of those players who doesn't really care
about the culture wars, and to him, his faith isn't
it's in the marrow of his bone, right. And so
many of the headlines I saw was reporting on him
having that verse on his as they called it, controversy.
What are we talking about? I'm rere too sure that

(09:07):
there is a gay player playing for the Dodgers right now,
or in management or in the front office.

Speaker 1 (09:13):
Sure, and.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
You don't have to wear your sexuality on your sleeve.
I will predict that the Dodgers won't be celebrating Pride
Nights here in a few years because it's not the
Jews doesn't work to Spleeve.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
No, not at all. Jerome Hudson at Bridbard dot com.
Jerome kiddos parents, grandparents are looking for things to do
with the kids, and so surely the new Pixar movie,
Disney's pushed past all of its problems and we've got
a good one with Elio.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
Right, you think all the things that you want, schools
out right, families at home, if not traveling, and Disney
it's just that the brand equity. It's the summertime. They
got a family friendly animated film, right, think that would
be a recipe for just unadulterated success. And no, Elio,

(10:08):
the latest from Pixar did release over the weekend, and
it marked the lowest Pixar release in its thirty year existence.
Even worse, it's the fourth bomb of this year for
Disney owned property. Yeah, so I was really I was

(10:31):
a little bit more curious in sort of the biology
of this box office bomb than others, because you know,
sometimes it's just it's kind of obvious. The film has
controversy around it, like Rachel Ziegler's snow White, even before
the film comes out. This one, I have to tell you,

(10:54):
I didn't really know that it was coming out until
a few weeks before it released over the over the
week weekend, which for a film that costs anywhere between
one hundred and fifty to two hundred million dollars to
just produce, and then you tacked on the usual one
hundred million dollars to promote the film. Yeah, three hundred

(11:14):
million dollars. Usually you know that movie is coming out
a year in advance. And what I discovered, Preston, is
that there were creative differences, which is usually the case.
There were creative differences with snow White. It was creative
differences with Solo, the movie that Ron Howard eventually finished,

(11:35):
but he was the third director hired on that movie.
That is, I think creative differences is probably the two
worst words in the filmmaking business, because you usually have
a director lead, which Elio did, and then you had
to hire a new director. You probably have to hire
new writers with new ideas to correct the creative difference

(12:00):
is and all of that happened with this movie. It
was supposed to come out last summer. It did not
because it was still being shot.

Speaker 3 (12:07):
What were the differences about, Well, it's the movie is
about a boy who lives on Earth but always dreamed
to be sucked off into space, and that actually did happen,
and he wounds up.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
On a planet in something called the communiverse commune universe,
and so he is mistaken as being the leader of
planet Earth. Of course he's not, but he and other
leaders of other planets come together to beat some big
bag sharing experiences from different worlds across the galaxy. It

(12:45):
all feels very commune like. But yeah, the original director
also directed Coco, which I believe came out twenty eighteen,
twenty seventeen. That movie for Disney and Pixar was a
major success.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Yes, well you give even though it's about a bunch
of sadness.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
Yeah, I believe he just wanted to go in different directions.
I haven't been able to find specifics on that, but
you know, they brought in the same director who was
responsible for Another Bomb a few years ago. It just
becomes one of those things where at a certain point

(13:27):
you just got to cut your losses. But Disney's never
really done that Warner Brothers who's now run by David Zaglow.
That guy came in and slashed and burned everything. Preston.
I mean, he had a Batgirl movie that was one
hundred million dollars in I guess he watched it, hated it,
and canceled the release. He did the same thing with

(13:48):
some Looney Tunes movies. He's never really done that. I
think they're afraid of the pr nightmare. They usually try
to keep their creators the directors of producers hat and
so they sold it through and it's resulted in just
another embarrassing headline for a movie studio that just cannot

(14:11):
avoid embarrassing headlines.

Speaker 1 (14:12):
All right, we got to go in like twenty five
seconds here, So give me the short answer. Is this
a result of Disney's brand now just simply not being
trustworthy and parents just I mean, Elio could have been
a great movie, but they're just people aren't going to
trust Disney anymore.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
Absolutely, that's it. I've talked about it with you for
years now. Once your brand goes as toxic as it
did because Disney wanted to jump into the gay Pride parade,
it's hard to get that back. It really is parents
don't like to be sucker punchs watching a movie with
political views shoved into it with their children.

Speaker 1 (14:54):
Okay, sidebar question, are guys drinking bud Light yet?

Speaker 2 (14:59):
I'm not my family and the taphole we're still abstaining.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
But I mean, from a sales perspective, is it bounced
back at all?

Speaker 2 (15:08):
I will let me run the numbers. I don't want
to say. These things do tend to go that way.
When we had the Kaepernick Nike collaboration in twenty sixteen,
Nike's stock eventually eventually rebounded. That is typically the way
it goes. Bud Light was so offensive putting Dylan mulvany
on that can and then sort of lying about it.

(15:34):
Let me run the numbers.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
We'll talk about it next time. Thank you, sir, Love you,
Love you too, but all right, Jerom Hudson, twenty eight
