Learn more as well.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Always one of our most important shows that we do
all year, and so it's always an honor to you
never know who might be popping in here to talk
about this thing once or twice throughout the show. We're
joined by retire Smart Chip Maxwell Chip. I. First of all,
it's so great to see you here in the studio.
Thanks so much for being here with us today.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
Oh you're welcome. Memory.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
It's a pleasure.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
I got to tell you I saw here on my sheet.
My guys retire Smart ten thousand dollars match this hour.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
David Brooks go Big or Go Home Basically he usually
does five grand, but he's just kind of fired up.
Kristin Deneen, who's with the Open Door Mission, is going
to be with us on our radio show this weekend,
The Retire Smart Show. It's on KFAB on Saturday and Sunday. Mornings,
and she's going to talk about In fact, I see
it on our fact sheet here, Emery ten percent increase
in people needing the Open Door Mission services, seven percent

(01:08):
decrease in donations, five percent increase in food costs. We
all know what inflation's been like. Absolutely, So you know,
given that perfect storm, David Brooks thought we're doing okay,
it retires smart. We're going to stretch a little ten
thousand dollars match. So whatever you matched, whatever you give today, folks,
David Brooks is going to match it up to ten
graand we've got a chance to leverage twenty grand for

(01:29):
Open Door Mission. I heard the morning went well, so
come on afternoon crowd.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Yeah, exactly, And you know it's kind of a competition
for us too.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
We would to beat those guys too, exactly. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
So the afternoon I know that you might be just
getting in the car, you might be hearing this for
the first time about what we're doing today. But as
Chip mentioned, very important here for what the people need
out there, right, and it is difficult out there.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
We know it is.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
Even the people that are doing better than others are saying, man,
my pennies have to be pinched a little bit arder
because of how this economy has been. Now, think about
somebody who really needed the help of somebody like Open
Door Mission, especially around the holidays, as the weather starts
to get cooler. As those holidays come around, you might
not have too many places to go.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
This is a chance that you can help.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
But especially with retire Smart jumping on, you're going to
get to help two people in one shot, which is
really really awesome.

Speaker 3 (02:20):
I felt a little sheepish emory about an hour ago.
I thought, you know, I better practice what I'm preaching today.
So I went to the Open Door Mission website opendoormission
dot org and there's a radiothon page and they've even
got the button there forty nine dollars. That's the default setting. So,
like I said, I felt a little sheepish. The budget's
a little tight at custom axwell this year, but I
thought I'd carve out forty nine bucks. But then actually
my spirit was buoyed by the realization that actually I

(02:43):
just produced ninety eight bucks for Open Door Mission because
David Brooks is matching it. So you know, even if
it seems like a small amount, remember it's being doubled. Hey,
if you can add a zero to that forty nine,
if you're in a position to do that, well, now
you've produced almost a thousand bucks because David Brooks will
match that. So so don't be shy, get in there
and get after it, folks.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
Yeah, absolutely, speaking with Chip Maxwell from retire Smart again,
that phone number if you want to give and we
really really would love to have your help today forty
nine dollars. You can go to the website as Chip mentioned,
opendoormission dot org the phone number four oh two eight
nine eight four six seventy three. That's four oh two
eight nine eight hope for our radiothon today. While we

(03:24):
have people's attention here, Chip, we got to talk about
what retire Smart does for people, because you guys are
helping people in their finances in a completely different way
throughout the year, especially in a very important time of
their lives.

Speaker 3 (03:35):
Well, David Brooks realized early on he's in about his
third decade now it's a financial adviser, that he wanted
to focus on retirement planning because there are so many
and I've just learned this emmering the last four plus
years I've been working there all the different ways you
can get blitzed and blindsided in retirement, especially where taxes
are concerned. You didn't do anything wrong, you were doing

(03:57):
it right, you were saving, you were frugal, you were careful,
and you might have a nice pile of money. But oh,
my goodness, the tax surprises that you can get medical
expenses have you budgeted for all, especially things like long
term care that can really wipe people out. There are
ways to address these things without bankrupting yourself, but you've
got to get ahead of the game. You plan for it,

(04:19):
and so that's what we do at retire smart. We
help people make sure that they're well positioned for whatever
politics and the markets throw at us so they can
relax and enjoy their retirement. It's super important. How can
people learn more about retire smart. What's the easiest way
for them to kind of dip their toes into the water.
Four oh two three six nine seven seven seven seven.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
We got to talk about the Matt Gates development here
this afternoon. We will do that coming up next right here.
On news radio eleven ten KFAB.

Speaker 4 (06:12):
Open Door Mission saves people from homelessness, addictions, being a
lost sheep. You know, it's all encompassing of that. From
the moment I walked in, she just made me feel
welcome and safe, safe to heal.

Speaker 5 (06:27):
We're safe to heal here.

Speaker 4 (06:29):
And that's that's a gift because that you don't have
that a lot of places.

Speaker 5 (06:33):
Em Marie Sunger on news Radio eleven ten KFAB.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Forty nine dollars gift can go a long ways. It
can help someone with food and care for the week
of Thanksgiving, which we know to be very important in
a great way for us to be giving to those
who are less fortunate. It also will help with a
hat and glove set for those people in need as well.
The best way to give is to give a phone
call to this number four oh two eight nine eight

(07:00):
four six seven three. That's four h two eight nine
eight hope. You can also go to the website opendoor
mission dot orgon you will have the opportunity to give
that way if that's what you prefer as well. Right now,
we got to shift into a little bit of the news.
Matt Gates is pulled himself out of the nomination process
for the Attorney General, which is something that was highly

(07:22):
speculated that could happen. It was just a matter of
how much he and Donald Trump, as in all the
people that were around Donald Trump, how much they would
continue to push forward or how much they would continue to,
you know, try to talk to the Senate and tell
those guys, hey, you know what, we really would like
mag Gaves to be the attorney general for the upcoming administration.

(07:43):
But certainly the lawyer that came forward with a couple
of women that said that yes, we were paid by
Matt Gates for sex, and then one of them said
they were a witnessed to him having relations with an
underage female back in twenty seventeen. Ethics Committee was doing

(08:03):
an investigation, which he said in September he was no
longer willing to cooperate. As soon as he was nominated
for the AG spot, he resigned from the House.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
So all the investigation ended. The DOJ did.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
Did they did, declined to press charges or to prosecute
based on the information they had. You know, a lot
of that was circumstantial to begin with, but it has
regardless been a very big distraction as Donald Trump has
been trying to build this team, and for the better
part of a week we have talked about what the
likelihood is of Matt Gates being confirmed one way or
the other, even with a recess appointment, and the different

(08:39):
outside forces that were probably going to try to prevent
him from serving in that role. So he resigned from that.
This is from earlier today. Matt Gates put this on
his x account and I quote, I had excellent meetings
with senators yesterday. I appreciate their thoughtful feedback and the
incredible support of so many. While the momentum was strong,

(09:01):
it was clear that my confirmation was unfairly becoming a
distraction to the critical work of the Trump Vance transition.
There's no time to waste on a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle. Thus,
I'll be withdrawing my name from consideration to serve as
Attorney General. Trump's DOJ must be in place and ready
on day one. I remain fully committed to see that
Donald J. Trump is the most successful president in history.

(09:25):
I will forever be honored that President Trump nominated me
to lead the Department of Justice, and I'm certain he
will save America. So with that being said, what's next
for Matt Gates. Well, the first thing that many people
have thought of and already were kind of piecing together
once he resigned from the House of Representatives was is
there a chance that he could become a Senator for

(09:46):
the state of Florida as quickly as I don't know,
January think about it. He's no longer going to have
the ability to serve in the House now that he's resigned.
Even after being reelected, there's going to need to be
a special election put in place to take his seat
in the House, even if he was confirmed as the
Attorney General. Well, either way, now he is no longer
in the House of Representatives. But Marco Rubio, Senator from Florida,

(10:10):
is in line and certainly will be confirmed as the
new Secretary of State. So if that happens, as we
expect it to happen, that means that Ron DeSantis, the
governor of Florida, will have the authority to appoint someone
to be a Senator representing the Republican Party, representing the
state of Florida. Those are two things that certainly Matt

(10:32):
Gates is qualified to do at this point. However, it
will be interesting to see if there will be more
of this ethics or a new ethics investigation in the
Senate opens up. If that were to take place, it
would be also pretty intriguing to see if the outside

(10:53):
lawsuits or threats of lawsuits essentially would continue to bear
down on him, becoming a further distraction to this administration
and the transition, as not just Donald Trump and his
team take over the White House, but also the Republicans
take control of the Senate, every last vote is going
to matter, and I'm not so sure that it's going
to make a lot of sense for the Republicans to

(11:15):
be adding welcome distractions with the small majorities that they
enjoy in both chambers of Congress. So the bottom line,
Matt Gates is out. Matt Gates withdraws from being the
attorney general for Donald Trump. And so there are some
short lists. One that was put together by Fox News.
They certainly were kind of in on this pretty quickly.

(11:36):
I'll just share some of the names that were given
as possible nominees that I'm sure we'll hear about in
the next day or two as Donald Trump tries to
find a replacement for Matt Gates. The Attorney general of
Missouri Andrew Bailey. He's been the top prosecutor since twenty
twenty two in Missouri. He also Army veteran, and he
has a great history of being a conservative as well.

(11:57):
He's a name that was floated out and has been
floated out by several Fox News also mentioned Mike Lee,
who's a senator representing the state of Utah. Again, this
would also kind of create the Senate replacement situation very quickly.
But the thing with the Senate is you don't need
the special election. The governor of the state can appoint
a new person to represent that political party and be

(12:21):
there as soon as January. If everything goes the right way.
Those are a couple of the names that were brought
up and seem to be the favorites to replace Matt
Gates on this very important front as well. I do
think it's also important for everyone to kind of take
inventory about where we're at as a society right now.

(12:42):
Of course, before COVID, the me too kind of push,
and then of course during COVID a lot of virtual
virtue signaling that we saw on a variety of levels,
not just within the people of Congress, but certainly within
you know, anyone in a position of power as a whole,

(13:02):
around the entire country. So what does this lead for
maybe some other people? And Marjorie Taylor Green also mentioned this,
and of course she is a staunch Republican and has
a good relationship with Matt Gates. Something that she had
posted a couple of days ago on her social media
accounts basically said, if we're going to be threatening to
try to release this stuff, and it was House Republicans
in that on that Ethics Committee that didn't want to.

(13:24):
They refuse to allow that information to get out. Although
the Democrats certainly would love to smear Matt Gates. Marjorie
Taylor Green posed a pretty interesting question, Well, there are
certainly plenty of other people that are in these chambers
of Congress that have paid money to quiet allegations of
a variety of things down, and there are certainly going

(13:45):
to be questions about that moving forward. How aggressive are
people looking into the fact of, you know, any type
of corruption on that level, any type of you know,
hush money payments, if you will, to that level, And
what would that mean for the relationship that some have,
especially with some of the new members of these chambers,

(14:06):
and what it would look like, and does it prevent
any actual work getting done. While the Republicans enjoy two
years at least of having both the House and the
Senate and of course the executive branch to be able
to push forward their agenda and what that agenda looks like.
I know that they don't want to waste any time.
They want to really put a baseline down very quickly.
Not just for the fact that Donald Trump wants to

(14:30):
make America great again, as he says, but there's all
sorts of other things that need to be achieved, and
you don't want to dilly dally around and wait and
all of a sudden it's twenty twenty six, and you're
worrying about another election, and there's a potential that the
House or the Senate or both end up flipping back
to the Democrats. A very real thing to worry about
if things don't go exactly how you'd like them to go.

(14:50):
As you're also going to be certainly working against the
mainstream media who are going to be trying to thrash
and dash any sort of hope that Americans have about
what this administration will do for them. You got to
be pretty evident that you're making headway on the things
that you want and make sure that people are recognizing
that when they're going to the gas pump, they're going
to the grocery store. And also they feel safe about
the things that are happening in our country at the

(15:11):
southern border and around the world with Ukraine and Russia
and Israel and all of the proxy groups there at
war with and what the heck's going to happen with
China and Taiwan. You know the deal this is, this
is something that the Trump administration certainly is going to
look to attack. And Matt Gates said, this is becoming
too much of a distraction already and I'm out. So
we'll see how that works for him, and we'll see

(15:33):
how it works for Donald Trump and that new Attorney
General opening that he will now have to fill. It's
two twenty six right now. A reminder today our hope
for the Hungary radiothon four O two eight nine eight
four six seven three is that number. Four oh two
eight nine eight four six seven three is the number
if you would like to give forty nine dollars. It's
not that much, folks, and you're going to be doing

(15:54):
an awful lot of good for somebody who needs food
and care for the week of Thanksgiving and the warmth
of the hat and glove set. And also go to
opendoor mission dot org and learn more. We'll continue the radiothon,
we'll give you an update on how many people that
we've been able to help. And of course this hour,
retire Smart is matching up to ten thousand dollars of
the people who are giving. We want to try to
get every last dime of that ten thousand dollars in

(16:15):
the match this hour, so please please please give four
oh two eight nine eight four six seven three for
our Open Door Mission Hope for the Hungary Radiothon Today.
We'll have more for it coming up here on news
Radio eleven ten KFAB.

Speaker 5 (16:29):
And Risonger on news Radio eleven ten KFAB.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
Imagine somebody out there that has less than you, that
definitely needs that help here during the holiday season. The call,
the phone number to call if you want to give
is four oh two eight nine eight hope. That is
four oh two eight nine eight four six seven three.
You can also visit opendoor mission dot org to be
a part of the giveaway or the radiothon to help
give that money to people in need. And this hour

(16:57):
up to ten thousand dollars going to be matched by
our friends that Retire Smart David Brooks and our friend
Chip Maxwell who's in studio with us. Once again, Chip
really appreciate you guys being here. What from your perspective,
right that forty nine dollars? What does that mean from
your vantage point? Not for necessarily the receiver of this,

(17:17):
but also for the giver here a week before Thanksgiving?

Speaker 3 (17:20):
Well, yeah, you know, there are all kinds of studies
out there. In fact, we talked about it recently on
our radio show, The Retire Smart Show that's on Kfab
on the weekends about how people who give, either financially
or volunteer for causes it does them good as well
as the cause. There are medical things like reduced hypertension

(17:40):
and things like that, but also you just feel good.
You know, you're connecting with a community in a world
in which we've become so much more digitized that humans
with each other face to face, person to person, you know,
helping people out, sharing a smile, sharing a burden, But
even that usually sparks good feelings and good wills. So

(18:02):
there are a whole host of reasons why it's good
for you as well as the cause, to get involved
and maybe make it hurt a little bit if you can.
You know, Emery, one thing I thought I might do
if it's all right with you. You know, people, why
is David Brooks doing this? I need ten grands? You
know why? Because we don't regular listeners probably know. Retire

(18:23):
Smart also sponsors a summer camp that the Open Door
Mission runs. Actually it's a year round operation and it
isn't just it is a camp, but there's also an
educational component. This is an effort to try to preserve
some kind of a normal childhood experience for kids in crisis.
These are for kids who are living at the shelter,
you know. And then next month will send a crew

(18:45):
down to the Toy and Joy Shop. It's a fun
thing that the mission does every year to help struggling
families be able to provide a Christmas. It's a big
warehouse full of toys and then at one end of
it they close it off and decorate it. It's like
a Sander's workshop, you know, a north pole, festive lights
and decorations and you know, put on your Santa hat
and your ugly Christmas sweater and you might be helping people.

(19:08):
Oh you got a five year old boy, here's an
isle of gifts for him. A ten year old girl,
Come on over here, We've got some dolls, you know whatever.
And so we send about a half dozen folks down
for that Toy and Joy Shop. Find some way to
get involved. But this is that we're doing today, the
radiothon the Hope for the hungry. This is the bread
and butter, literally, I guess for Open Door Mission. And

(19:30):
let me drive this back to the news a little bit.
In this regard emery and that, you know, I like
to kind of tease or challenge fellow conservatives out there.
You know, we can get a little grumpy about government,
government programs and so forth. And there's a lot of
excitement right now. You got Elon Musk and Vivic Ramaswami
and the Department of Governmental Efficiency turna Blues, you know,

(19:52):
maybe Project twenty twenty five, the Heritage Foundation, you know,
trying to streamline government. There's reason for conservatives to be excited.
You know, let's remind ourselves to be a conservative, to
be an American is not to be a survival of
the of the fittest type of person. That we live
in a society based on natural law in four thousand

(20:13):
years of Judeo Christian teaching, and at the heart of
that is the idea that you are your brother's keeper.
We got to look out for each other. You know,
some people are in crisis because they screw it up. Okay,
some people are in crisis through no fault of their own.
On our radio show, our retire smart radio show, we've
been talking about it for weeks. There are name brand,
iconic restaurants and department stores closing down all over by

(20:37):
the hundreds, tens of thousands of jobs being lost. It's
funny emory because the markets are roaring and they have
been stock market. You know, up at the thirty thousand
foot level, things look great. But at the grassroots level,
where people live and work or are losing their jobs
and trying to pay bills, there is economic pain there
and so and remember we're not talking about a government

(21:00):
program here, we're talking about the open door mission of
faith based proven provider. One of the reasons David Brooks
is so passionate about open Door Mission. It has an
efficacy rating well above ninety percent, meaning when you give
a buck to the Open Door Mission, more than ninety
cents of that dollar is going to the people in
need and their programs and serves not to a bunch

(21:20):
of bureaucratic overhead. So for all of those reasons, that's
why retire smart. That's why David Brooks said, you know what,
let's double our usual five grand. We'll make it ten grand.
And come on, fellow conservatives, let's get out there now
on practice what we preach. We believe that the private sector,
secular organizations as well as faith based ought to be

(21:41):
handling the social services well. They need our help to
get it done.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
So let's do it.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
Yeah, that is absolutely a fascinating study kind of into
the heart of a person. We got ourselves, I think,
pretty callous. In this modern age, it can happen, you know,
just like, hey, you know what I have? What I
have because I've gotten myself ef there. But at the
same time, America was built on helping each other out
and this is a great opportunity for that. I have

(22:07):
the numbers for before I got on the air, so.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
You got the updated scorecard here.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
So this is a scoreboard here, scoreboard before I get
on to like this was before we got on the air.
So I don't know what we're going to do in
this two o'clock hour. I'm hoping that we're going to
take every last dime from retire Smart that they wanted
to match. Here that ten thousand dollars and ten thousand dollars.
To do the quick math, two people can be helped
by one hundred dollars. One thousand dollars should be twenty people.

(22:32):
Ten thousand dollars should be two hundred people. And take
that time too. I mean, like we are, that's a
lot of people you can make help give help to
here in Omaha, for the Thanksgiving week. We are sitting
as a whole right now at one thousand, seven hundred
and ninety eight total people that have been helped already.
And the morning show guys did a great job. They

(22:54):
they had gotten up to nine hundred and ninety eight
before nine am, and Scott voorh he's tacked on another
four or five hundred there. And then of course during
the Claim Books show, there were still plenty of people
that were calling in. So we got it. We got
our work cut out for us this afternoon. If we're gonna,
you know, do the little flex and say, hey, we
had more people giving and helping out. And they know
my listeners, They knowed me to be a very competitive guy.

(23:16):
This is competitive in all the right ways. We want
you to help the hungry, help those less fortunate, and
our friends that retire smart are going to be matching
every dollar up to ten thousand dollars this hour. That's
a huge number that I would love I would love
to get to. So a couple of ways you can
give four oh two eight nine eight four six seven
three four oh two eight nine eight four six seven

(23:39):
three that's the number you call. It takes you right
to the phone center, the call center, they'll take your
information and make sure that you're able to give as
much as you're willing to give here on this very
important day a week before Thanksgiving. You can also visit
their website at opendoor Mission dot org. Opendoor mission dot
org and you can find I mean they have they
have the button right there on the homepage that you
could find.

Speaker 3 (23:59):
Houston myself just about an hour ago.

Speaker 1 (24:01):
Yeah, yeah, so you you don't even need to ask questions.
It's right there on the website at opendoor mission dot org.
And again that the matching from our friends at retire
smart Chip one last time for those who might be
curious about what retire smart is and they missed it
a little bit earlier, and they certainly have heard your show,
they've heard the ads and everything, but this is a
very vital thing to have somebody thinking about as they

(24:21):
get closer and closer to retirement age.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
Sure four O two three six nine seven seven seven
seven Embery. We've got all kinds of classes and workshops
if you want to join us, or you can go
to our events page retire smart Omaha dot com, retire
smart Omaha dot com and We've got a full menu
of what we've got coming up in different ways. You
might want to interact with us. Maybe you want to

(24:44):
sit down with one of our advisors for a complimentary
visit to find out what our smart planning process might
be able to do for you. We'd be glad to visit.

Speaker 2 (24:52):
With you, absolutely one hundred percent.

Speaker 1 (24:54):

easy to utilize chip Max. Well, thank you so much
for this, Thanks for what you guys do, Thanks for
joining us here this hour and helping us with our radiothon,
with our friends at open Door Mission. It's incredibly powerful
to see what fellow Nebraskans and Iowins and Omahan's can
do for one another in this and it takes people

(25:15):
from the top taking the lead and saying, look, let's
do this together. And we really appreciate you participating with
us once again this year.

Speaker 3 (25:21):
On behalf of David Brooks and the entire team at

Speaker 2 (26:41):
Updates throughout the rest of the afternoon as well. Matt
case is my producer.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
Matt, we've taken a couple of calls in, given away
a couple of four packs to that Monster Jam. Who
are all winners this hour on the DL Monster Jam? Well,
we got a couple winners. Let me get it open here, Okay.
I do know that we set a record today.

Speaker 2 (26:58):
What's that? Well, it's the youngest winner we've ever had, oh,
fourteen years old. Whoa gonna go see Monster Jamps? So
thanks to Benjamin out there.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
Benjamin shout out, yeah, Hey, I like starting him young
with the AM radio. Absolutely, and Benjamin, tell your friends, yeah,
and that is gonna be a fun time. Like we
talked about yesterday, plug up those ears. You know, not
to be preachy, but you know, I mean, it's it's
important information. You don't want to go there all of
a sudden, You're like, man, I wish I would have
bought some earphones, yeah for this.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
But I take it from an older guy like myself
who used to play in bands and practice in an
echoe basement without your protection. You're like three times older
than that guy. Yeah, almost almost carry the five subtract
from nobody does.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
That's not common core. Huh, that's not common core. It
looks funny. Benjamin probably does math so differently than we
did math. He's probably way better at it too. Well,
he's probably sharper because we just don't need to do
it anymore.

Speaker 2 (27:55):
Yeah, I never do math.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
But on top of that, I mean he probably was
taught very differently than the way that we would do
long division. Really, yeah, the common core stuff like, I
don't know how many people are getting taught different ways.
But with calculators, why do you even need know how
to do that? That's my thing. Everybody has a calculator
in their pocket. Why on earth do you need to
like spend weeks teaching them how to do algebra and

(28:17):
calculus when you could literally like unless they want to
be like an engineer or something, when they're going to
need to learn how to do those problems. But like
when it comes to you know, teaching kids how to
do multiplication and long division and all this stuff. I mean, like, what,
what's the point. I'll tell you what, solar flare? You
think a solar flair is going to take out our calculator.
It's going to take everything out. It's possible.

Speaker 2 (28:38):
It's possible to take out the calculators, and then the
Amish will run the world because they don't need any
of this stuff, the calculators. Ye, do the Amish do math? No?
They just they sit inside and they wait. That's not
that's not true. That's what they're seeing them doing things outside. Okay,
either inside or outside, but they are waiting Emory for

(28:59):
everything to turn off. And then they will be like,
look at you fancy people with your gadgets now, and
they will ride their horse and buggies to all of
the thrones of power and take over the whole world.
What does that have to do with a calculator? Though
the calculator doesn't need a cell tower, the batteries will
run out and then they won't have replacements. You don't
think there's enough batteries in the world to help people
with their calculators? Are you for real?

Speaker 4 (29:20):
Man?

Speaker 2 (29:21):
I'm just I'm all I'm doing honestly and humbly, and
all I'm doing humbly is advocating for people to continue
to learn math the long way, to do math right,
because a solar flare could just take us all out,
take all our technology. Not how that works, it's not
how it works. I saw that in a movie once.

Speaker 1 (29:37):
No solar flare would not ruin your calculator. Your calculator
to be fine, It doesn't need a signal. You could
be underground. You could be like, you could be so
far underground that you're like at the bottom of the
Earth's crust. And theoretically your phone could still as long
as as your phone battery works, you could be using
your phone for your own calculator.

Speaker 2 (29:56):
Who said that the battery works right to do with
the solar flare? As long as you're charging your phone.
You know everybody's charging their phone anyway, And I would say,
if you're not charging your phone, you're gonna have a
lot more problems than just not being able to use
a calculator. If you happen to need a calculator, I
don't know what do you want from me? Anyway, We
don't want you to have to struggle with math or

(30:16):
anything when you call in to be a part of
our hope for the Hungary Radio thon today a couple
of ways that you can give.

Speaker 1 (30:22):
Forty nine dollars gift goes towards food and care for
the week of Thanksgiving for local people who are in need.
They also will get a glove and hat set, which
is always important. It's pretty crispy outside today, a good
reminder that there are people out there that don't have hats, gloves, coats,
opportunity to give for them as well. Forty nine dollars
gift goes a long ways call four oh two eight
nine eight four six seven three four oh two eight

(30:45):
nine eight four six seven three.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
That's the phone number.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
You can also give by going to opendoor mission dot
org opendoormission dot org. We would love to get a
big number on that scoreboard. Take advantage of retire smart
and they're ten thousand dollars match to the end of
the hour and we'll have plenty more throughout the rest
of the show, including going behind enemy lines next on
the news radio eleven ten KFAB. They'll be getting food,
they'll be getting care, the warmth of hat and glove set,

(31:09):
and you can give and it's only forty nine dollars
to help one person. You can give as much as
you possibly can, and you're comfortable with to help as
many people here in the Omaha area for this season.
Opendoor Mission dot org, Opendoor Mission dot org, or you
can go to four oh two eight nine eight four
six seven three. Just give a phone called a four
oh two eight nine eight four six seven three and
they'll walk you through the process. Here's a story from

(31:30):
someone who has been helped by Open Door Mission. This
is Kelsey.

Speaker 6 (31:34):
I ended up finding the Open Door Mission realizing that
they had a program for exactly what it was that
I needed, not only the rehabilitation, but a program for
women who were hurting just like me. If you know,

(31:54):
with all of our different stories, we all came together
because there's one thing that we wanted. We wanted we
wanted to find God, we wanted to fight through this
battle that we were each dealing with. And I didn't
realize what I was walking into when I went into
those doors and they were ready with open arms.

Speaker 1 (32:18):
That is one of the powerful testimonies of somebody who's
actually been helped by Open Door Mission and we're joined
now in our studio by Candace, who is doing all
the heavy lifting here with Open Door Mission as part
of our radio thign. Candace, we always appreciate the great
work that you do. Thanks for coming in today, and
I know that this is a big day for you
guys as well. What's the kind of what can you

(32:38):
give me on a status update on how we're doing
so far here today?

Speaker 5 (32:41):
Well, I can tell.

Speaker 7 (32:42):
You that this is kind of the kickoff to our
holiday season, the annual KPABE radio sign, And it's kind
of like for us and our volunteers, like, Okay, this
is going to be like making a break, Like it's
if you go really well, it's going to really have
a great holiday season.

Speaker 5 (32:58):
And so it's kind of like hard.

Speaker 7 (33:00):
It's sad to say that we base that on them
one day, but it's really true. Like if you look
at how responsive the KFA listeners have been today, it's like,
oh my gosh, there's hope for us. Hope not just
for the people we're serving, but for us as a team.
We feel hopeful.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
And we you know, we talked about kind of what
the scoreboard I call it a scoreboard looks like because
we're all competing against each other. We want to try
to drive as many people to the phone lines into
the website as possible.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
So it's a little competitive. I love it, you know, honest.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
That's what That's what fires me up is I want
to be I want to be trying what we can
do to you know, give as much as we can.
And we had the big retire smart match, and there's
so many other matches that have been going on throughout
the day. But for you know, people who are you know,
working on like trying to think, okay, so where is
the money going?

Speaker 2 (33:47):
Right?

Speaker 1 (33:47):
Because I know a lot of people when they give
a gift, it's important for them to know exactly where
that money is going. So how can you best describe
how this works?

Speaker 7 (33:55):
So for us, everything is pretty much an open book.
It's on our website, but ninety cents of redonation goes
directly to guest services. So we're really good steward of
our donations, whether it be monetary, whether it be volunteerism,
people's time, or even what they donate for actually items.
And so for this project, it's exciting because we have
sponsors and so every time you make a gift, a

(34:17):
sponsor is matching that gift, and so it's a double
blessing in many ways. And this project is actually focusing
on the men, women, and children that will be experiencing homelessness.
I know we knew a lot of great things holiday assistants,
but this is the men, women and children who will
be experiencing homelessness on Thanksgiving Day and the week of Thanksgiving.
And so we have a big brunch and banquet on

(34:38):
Thanksgiving Day with all the fixings that you'll enjoy in
your home with your family and friends. And it's because
of this program. And we also give out a hat
and glove set. Now it's a little bit the weather's
a little bit turning quickly here and so but we've
always given that out on Thanksgiving knowing that just like
any household when you have children. For us, it's a

(35:00):
little bit different because just at the Liddy House about
one hundred and thirty six school aged children, but someone's
always coming home with one glove missing without the hat,
and so we're always replacing things, but there's nothing like
new on Thanksgiving Day. And so all the other times
we use gently used, but on Thanksgiving Day, everybody gets
a new hat and glove set.

Speaker 1 (35:19):
It's so powerful because they can absolutely use it. And
I walked out of the house today and it's like, okay,
better grab the coat. Today's a coat day.

Speaker 2 (35:27):
You know. Imagine somebody who doesn't have that.

Speaker 1 (35:29):
Imagine somebody doesn't have the hat or the gloves and
they are thinking, Okay, well, thanksgivings next week and it's
just going to get colder from here.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
Kind of thing.

Speaker 1 (35:37):
Now we can actually step in and be of use,
so remind us how people can give and how important
it is to give. During our show today with the
matches that we have available as well.

Speaker 7 (35:48):
Well, we hope that you'll step out in faith because
we have too. We have made really big purchases to provide,
knowing and believing in just claiming that we're going to
have the money to pay those bills that are coming
in and like many that are struggling in the economy
has affected us too. We have an increase in number
of people in need and donations have been down except

(36:10):
for today five enough so kfab dot com is where
you can make a gift online, where you can call
one of our volunteers at four oh two eight nine
eight four six seven three We've been hearing great stories
from our listeners about why they're giving, and that's been
inspiring to us as well.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
We love that and the like you mentioned the phone
number there if you want to call in, they'll walk
you through every single thing that you need. Four oh
two eight nine eight four six seven three kfab dot
com has a button on it. You can go to
Opendoor Mission dot org to learn a lot more about
Open Door Mission. We will continue to chat throughout the
rest of the show. Cande, thanks so much for stopping in. Okay,
we will step aside. We'll have plenty more for you,

(36:46):
not just with the radio soon. Of course, we're going
to be doing that throughout the rest of the show
and reminding you how you can give and make an
impact on people's lives here right in the Omaha area.
But on top of that, we're also going to have
the ability to talk about some of the other news
of the day and things that are onto our So
stay right there and stay with us as we are
one big family here on news Radio eleven ten KFAB.

Speaker 5 (37:07):
Emrie Songer on news Radio eleven ten KFAB.

Speaker 1 (37:10):
They are only going to match for the people who
are giving, and that is an easy thing for you
to do. Forty nine dollars that gift we will go
toward food and care for the week of Thanksgiving and
the warmth of the hat and gloves set as well
here to someone in Omaha in need and includes children.
Think about how impactful that would be. And for every
single gift that you are paying for, that is going
to be matched by someone who's very generous, including our

(37:33):
friends that retire smart right now. So go to opendoormission
dot org, opendoor mission dot org, or you can call
four oh two eight nine eight four six seven three.
Four oh two eight nine eight four six seven three
is the phone number. And we would love to hear
that you've given and I'd love to shot you out
here on our radio show today.

Speaker 2 (37:51):
Matt case is my producer.

Speaker 6 (37:52):
Matt.

Speaker 1 (37:53):
We were what do you think about what do you
think about advertising?

Speaker 2 (37:57):
How? Like what kind of advertising?

Speaker 1 (37:59):
Give me example of a company that won you over
through an ad? Oh like like you saw an ad
and you're like, yeah, I actually going to try that
PRODUCTO I thought one man, yeah by away. So people
are going to remember this one because I think this
made an impact for more than just me. It was
a nineties ad. It was for Campbell's chicken Noodle soup.

(38:21):
A snowman comes inside and sits at the dinner table
and then melts away into a little kid after after
taking chicken. Is Campbell's chicken noodle soup? That was so perfect?

Speaker 2 (38:33):
That was I got another one too, but that that
was so perfect and it and it just perfectly cemented
chicken noodle soup and cold weather and how those gobal
those go together. And yeah, I've loved I've always loved
that ad. I've gone to YouTube and looked it up
before just to be like, well, there's a nostalgia for
you in that ad. But you know, Campbell's chicken noodle

(38:56):
soup a terrible product. I mean just a just a
general awful product. I'm not to Campbell's for it. I
ate I ate a lot of Cambe's chicken noodle soup
growing up. It was something that I did, like my
mom would make for me. And no disrespect mo, but
that is some lousy soup. Like are you sticking with
are you just are you hold on? What? Are you

(39:18):
maligning the soup generally or just Campbell's version of it?
Campbell's version of Okay, Okay, find I still am a soup guy.
Are still a soup guy, all right?

Speaker 1 (39:27):
But the condensed Campbell's Chicken Noodle soup, I mean there's
barely any chicken in there at all. Yeah, there's a
little clumps of chicken. I don't get it. Like you
have like a chunky soup version, which, oddly enough, Campbell's
makes the chunky soup version, and that stuff's like, Okay,
that's a little heartier.

Speaker 2 (39:44):
I can get behind that. I eat that when I'm sick.
They should have like a chonky version that's even chunkier
than that, that's like extra chunky. And then maybe maybe
then right, oh maybe then maybe then it would be
just the right amount okay of deliciousness. Okay, it sounds
like something that probably wouldn't work, but you know, well,
I'm going to start a business when we leave here today.

(40:04):
I bet you will. Well.

Speaker 1 (40:06):
I mentioned this because you know I've had some of
those as well. I think I think advertising can be
pretty effective. And we talk about you know, like super
Bowl ads, like the ones that hit are the ones
that you know are memorable and make you think of
the product. I bring this up because did you see
Jaguarar or however they say it, Jaguar.

Speaker 2 (40:26):
It's Jaguar, the car Jaguar. Oh okay, yeah, you've heard
of that. I've heard of it, you know, Jaguar. Yeah, no, no,
I've heard of it. Yeah of course. Yeah, it's a car,
it's a fancy car. It's it's over my budget.

Speaker 1 (40:39):
Well yeah, but you've seen, like you've seen Jaguar around, right,
I've seen him around. You see him every once in
a while, and you're like, oh, there's a Jaguar and
it's a car, but not the animal, you know.

Speaker 2 (40:50):
And they got the decal out front. Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 (40:52):
Okay, so the decal is kind of like what you
would think of, right, it's part of the logo. What
if I said it's not part of the logo. Now
they just did a rebrand. Oh it seems like a
bad idea. You get your X up. You got your
X up? Okay, search Jaguar. There's a thirty second ad
that they released two days ago that I didn't know
how much I wanted to talk about this because I'm

(41:13):
not a business guy.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
You see it? Did you find it? You're looking at it? Yet?
I did? I actually did see this the ad you're
talking about. Okay, yeah, I saw this earlier. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (41:23):
It says create exuberant, right, live, vivid, delete ordinary, break
molds and molds is with a you because you know Europe.
And yeah, it's a thirty second ad. It says copy nothing.
And then it's their new logo, which is the lamest
font of imaginable and absolutely zero cat. There's no cat

(41:44):
as part of the logo anymore. Yeah, And I don't
know what the business has been like for Jaguar. Maybe
they're just like, hey, we're going to go out of
business one way or the other. Here, let's just completely
take a left turn. And by left, I mean super
left because in this ad it's also just a bunch
of drag queens. Looks like these are adrogynous people that
are wandering around in this space thing sledgehammers and yeah

(42:09):
they're breaking molds, all right, But you don't see a
car anywhere, narry a car in sight.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
I'm right now I'm scrolling through Microsoft Word to see
what font that is. Oh, come on, seriously, though I
wanted to provide contacts. There's a lot of people in here.
Elon Musk also replied to that, to that ad on
X and said, do you sell cars? I mean, how
would you know?

Speaker 1 (42:32):
And Jaguar replied and said, yes, we'd love to show
you join us for a kuppa in Miami on December second.
Or misregards Jaguar, they're like they are, They're applying to
a bunch of these people, but it's hard to imagine
this working. Like and somebody said, let me fix this
for you, like I really like. Somebody shared this and

(42:54):
it's got two hundred and sixty thousand likes on X.
It said, Hi, Jaguar, I fix your awful ad. It
took me two minutes. And it's a very hot woman
standing next to one of their cars, and the car
looks good in front of a giant mansion and it's
got the old logo next to it, and it's kind
of like, I'm infinitely more interested, not just because of
the hot chick. I mean, the hot chick helps, but like,

(43:15):
I see the car. You showed me one of your cars.
If you're trying to sell me a car, let me
see your car. But instead you're not even letting me
see the car. You're changing all of your branding and
you're trying, like, who are you selling to like who
out there is going to look at that ad and
be like, I'm gonna buy a Jaguar car Now, I
don't even know what the car looks like anymore. You
haven't even shown me a car. It's hard to imagine

(43:37):
this working. Are they setting us up somehow? How long
will it take for us to know if this was
a good idea or not? I mean, it's probably not
a good idea. I'm sure it's not a good idea.
But like in six months is they're like, hey, actually,
there's sales increased because people started talking about him. Who's
talked about Jaguar more than I'm like the world right now.
They've just kind of been like, hey, if I give you, like,
if you named five luxury car brands, would Jaguar have

(43:59):
been one of the five.

Speaker 2 (44:00):
It's a good possibility that it would have. Yeah, I
don't think it would have been for me. Okay, I
would have gone like Lamborghini. I would have gone with BMW,
probably like an Audi. I don't know if people consider
Audi to be a luxury car brand, but I do. Really,
I think Jaguar is much more luxury than Audy. I'm
not ranking them by their how luxurious they are. I'm

(44:20):
ranking them based on my understanding of a luxury car
brand and who is top of mind, and Jaguar probably
wouldn't be in top of mind for me. I would
be thinking about like an Aston Martin before I think
about Jaguar, Pontiac grand Am. Okay that is you stop, hey,
if we're putting Audi in there, Audy has fancy cars. Okay, Ever, like,

(44:42):
I get what you're saying. They have some like gross
cars too, but Audi has some fancy cars. Look it up,
Pontiac grand Am, how about Ah, how about a Ford
Taurus show Get out of here, Like as your age,
you're ruining my point. My point is I I'm thinking
more about Jaguar the car company now more than I

(45:03):
ever have. And not to say that this is a
good thing, because I don't really have anything good to
say about the ad itself. But is there something of publicity?
Is there a thing about publicity that is going to
eventually translate to them selling more cars. There's going to
have to be like a quick follow up somehow, some way.
We saw what happen to bud Light. I'm not saying
that this is the same thing, because everybody has their

(45:24):
own you know ideals, But with the Dylan mulvaney thing
and the transgender bud Light thing, trying to you know,
sell beers to transgender people, which in turn doesn't really
work because there's not that many transgender people wanting to
drink American light beer first and foremost, and second of all,
a lot of the long time Anheuser Busch people who

(45:44):
really liked the product and would have endorsed the product
and everything. I mean, it tanked for first solid six
months they were tanking. They had to completely overhaul their
entire staffing and go back to the drawing board and
have to talk people like Peyton Manning into being you know,
spokesper people for bud Light to try to pull it
out of the depths that it fell and they still

(46:07):
fully recovered. Right, Jaguar might be in a spot where
it's even in more dire straits because at least bud
Light was like one of the top light beers in America.
Jaguar isn't. So who is this for. Who is going
to like fill that lane for Jaguar and be like,
oh yeah, I'll spend my eighty thousand dollars at least
for the worst Jaguar possible. You have to have money

(46:27):
for this. So who is it who's buying the Jaguars?
Is this a clooney thing? Are they targeting the Hollywood
social lightes here with this ad? I mean, you and
me certainly would never have bought a Jaguar in our
life one way or the other. Do they sell them
in Europe because that's where they're all moving these days,
Well that's pop Yeah, I mean they're base in Europe.
Oh there you go. They're welcoming all those clooney esque socialites,

(46:48):
all of those champagne socialists that are new to the
game out there in Europe these days. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (46:53):
So maybe if they start buying Jaguars, then we could
be like, oh, okay, well, good job.

Speaker 2 (46:58):
Right. They had to mark their cars up.

Speaker 1 (46:59):
To make it, you know, makes sense for them, but
maybe they can Who knows. Anyway, If you've got thoughts
on this, memory at kfab dot com is our email
and you can be a part of the conversation. More
on the way on news radio eleven ten kfab.

Speaker 5 (47:12):
Emrie's on news radio eleven ten Kfab.

Speaker 2 (47:17):
I just wanted to talk a little talk a little
stuff about Audi. I think they're above average, but I
put them kind of like and the Lexus tier. I
guess Lexus isn't that the ones that put the big
giant bow on it when you buy it for Christmas? Yeah,
and that's all fancy and stuff, but that's not like
a finely tooled machine of performance that you pay hundreds
of thousands of dollars for like Aston Martin's up here.
Lexus is kind of down here in the mid range, right,

(47:39):
all right? Fine, But where's Jaguar above? I would say
above Lexus for sure?

Speaker 1 (47:44):
I should I should have shat GPT, Like, how does
Jaguar rank among luxury car brands? I think that's important
for us to notice to if Jaguar is like lagging
big time behind some of these other European very like
high level luxury brands. I don't disagree that maybe thinking
completely outside the box might help them, even if it's
not speaking to me. I was never gonna buy one

(48:05):
of their cars anyways. They're not trying to sell it
to me and you the working man.

Speaker 2 (48:09):
Well, I was just gonna say, all of this knowledge
that I'm imparting today some probably most, if not all, untrue.
It's all based on my uh childhood video game playing
of Grand Arrismo, like oh yeah, grant yeah like that.
That that is my fancy car knowledge. I played Blur
Blur remember Blur. I don't know if I played. That

(48:31):
was a great one. I was like Mario Kart, except
with the real cars. Oh it's so good. That's fun.
Power ups. Yeah, bring back Blur. That's what I want.
I want to I want to Blur, Like ConA, Sega's
in there, Audi is in there. I don't know if
there was a Jaguar. There's a ton of good cars
in there. Man, it was Grand Tarismo. What's awesome?

Speaker 5 (48:46):
Though.

Speaker 2 (48:47):
You'd start out with like a Chevy Astro and then
you just have to like win races periodically, you know, right, yeah,
well hold your way up. Yeah that was real racing.
Like so it's a legitimate racing simulation for the most part.
Like uh, I like the like the power ups that
you get and you can like shoot cars and stuff.
When you're in Blur.

Speaker 1 (49:04):
You need that Xbox three sixty or that PS three though,
if you're going to make that, going to make that work,
cause where a couple of generations go on that one.
I think if you really want to go all out
on a game like that, just grab yourself some twisted metal.
Oh yeah, there you go, there you go. And also Reckfest,
which is also a great racing game. But again they
don't have the license for real cars, so you know,

(49:25):
like they look like real cars and you can probably
like guess at what they are, but they.

Speaker 2 (49:30):
Don't actually tell you that it's this model or that model. Anyway,
I'll look at I'll look it up.

Speaker 1 (49:35):
I'll see if I can't find like a list of
like how Jaguar is performing in sales compared to some
other luxury car brands, and we'll get back to you
on that before we get out this hour, I did
want to reiterate that it is our hope for the
hungry radiothon here today a week before Thanksgiving, incredibly important
to give, and this is an opportunity for just forty
nine dollars that your gift can go towards someone in

(49:57):
Omaha that can use the food care in a hat
and glove set for this time of the year as
it continues to get colder and colder and colder out there.
Forty nine dollars is all it takes to help one
single person and if you want to give more. Absolutely,
we have a match up to ten thousand dollars for
our friends at retire Smart. We would love for you
to help us and take advantage of all ten thousand

(50:20):
of those dollars. So go to opendoor mission dot org.
Opendoor mission dot org is their website. There's a button
right there that can they can get you started so
you can give your forty nine dollars. You can also
call them in the call center and they'll help you
with that as well. Four O two eight nine eight
four six seven three four oh two eight nine eight
four six seven three. We really would love for you

(50:40):
to be part of our giving team today and shout
out to Dean. Thank you to Dean who has helping
five people, Susan, John and Kim all with two people
that they are helping, and then Rita, David, Caleb and
Dave also making sure that they are helping people here
on this our radiothon day. So help us with our

(51:00):
hope for the hungry. Give at opendoor mission dot org,
opendoor mission dot org and we'll reset that and have
plenty more for you here on news Radio eleven tin
kfab Thanksgiving as a whole. Is a time where we
give thanks for different things and we talk about what
we're thankful for on a variety of levels. But we
also I think it's important for us to have an

(51:22):
opportunity in general, for us to make other people's lives better,
and we don't always have obvious ways to do that.
I'm giving you an obvious way to make someone's life
better here in this Thanksgiving so they have something to
be thankful for and you'll be a part of that.
Forty nine dollars is all it takes to help one
person for next week, to have food and care in
a hat and glove set for the week of Thanksgiving

(51:44):
with our friends at Open Door Mission, big thanks for
our recent donations from Joan Joanne, I think that's dory,
and also for Charlotte who gave two enough to help
two people. And we have ninety four people able to
be in the match until four thirty, so we want
to get rid of those as much as possible. Because

(52:06):
we have our friends at Retire Smart. They are of course,
as every single year that they do they have put
in this time ten thousand dollars ten thousand dollars to
match any donation so if you give one hundred dollars
to help two people, they're going to match that with
one hundred dollars of their own and help two other
people as well, so your donation would end up helping
four people. We have a little bit left in the

(52:28):
tank here for that ten thousand dollars match, so call
it in at the phone bank. They're going to be
able to help you out for this radiothon to help
people in the Omaha area. Four oh two eight nine
eight four six seven three four oh two eight nine
eight four six seven three is that number, And you
can also go to opendoor mission dot org opendoor mission
dot org. And when we talk about this, there are

(52:50):
people who have stories that they want to be able
to share. That way you understand, you know the people
that are being helped by doing this, people who are
in trouble, who need help because not necessarily of their
own doing. We know how difficult it is out there
in twenty twenty four, chance for us to help. Well,

(53:11):
here's a story and for somebody who has had this
type of situation happened to them and Open Door Mission
has helped them, and your donations in the past have
helped people like this. Your donation could help somebody like
Adam today. Here's Adam's experience to.

Speaker 8 (53:26):
Have someone there when you have nothing left that can
that can take you in, feed you, shower. The food
here is really good and that's sometimes that's all you need.
You're not coming here to change your life, you're just some.
When I came here, it was the worst I walked in.
It was the worst day of my life. I didn't

(53:47):
I didn't want to be here, have nothing left to me,
So it's it's truly it's hard when you get here.

Speaker 2 (53:55):
It's not something that's easy to do.

Speaker 8 (53:56):
But when you've lost it all and you campletely out
of options, a place like this that'll pick you up.
And there's a lot of really kind people here that care.
It's about people they've never met and it's their calling
to do that, and it's awesome that that option is

(54:17):
available in our community.

Speaker 1 (54:19):
You want to help people like Adam and how many people,
including small children, that need that help.

Speaker 2 (54:25):
You have a great opportunity today.

Speaker 1 (54:26):
Your forty nine dollars gift will go toward food and
care for the week of Thanksgiving for all of these
people and the warmth of a hat and glove set
that forty nine dollars takes care of one person for
the week. It's incredibly generous of you, and we really
want to be able to thank you like we've thanked
so many already on the show. Today, call their phone
bank to be a part of our radiothon today we
humbly ask for your help for those who are in

(54:47):
need this Thanksgiving season. Four oh two eight nine eight
four six seven three four oh two eight nine eight
four six seven three is the number, or four oh
two eight nine to eight hope. You can also go
to opendoor mission dot org. Opendoor mission dot org. That
is the website that has a link right there for
you to be able to set things up and be
able to make your payment to help these people in need.

(55:09):
And ninety cents of every dollar goes directly to people
in the Omaha area to help them out.

Speaker 2 (55:14):
We really really would appreciate your help. Today.

Speaker 1 (55:18):
We will come back, We'll have plenty more for you.
We'll speak about what Matt gets put on his X
account to talk about what what essentially was a very
rocky eight days as he was seemingly in line to
become the Attorney General of the United States that is
no longer going to happen. We'll tell you what he
said on his social media account. And we have to
revisit the Jaguar conversation because we have more information about

(55:41):
where Jaguar lines up in luxury car brands in the
world today. We'll do that as well on news Radio
eleven ten kfab.

Speaker 5 (55:49):
Emri Sunger on news Radio eleven ten kfab.

Speaker 1 (55:54):
Matt Case and I am sitting here and I want
to finish this Jaguar conversation at the in the r
I'll talk about Matt Gates and what he said on
social media, as you've heard in the news, and it
was going on throughout the entire clay In Buck Show.
But just after eleven am our time, Matt Gates says,
withdrawn from his has withdrawn from being the Attorney General,

(56:17):
which you could kind of see coming, but I don't know.
It's an interesting development. We will get to that in
a moment. I wanted to finish this up because Matt Case,
we have done a little bit of recon here about
where Jaguar, and this is all in the spirit of
what the heck are they doing with this new rebrand
and all these new ads, the new thirty second add
that they shared a couple of days ago, which is

(56:37):
just it's a baffling decision. It's a lot of it's
several androgynous looking people who looked like they could be
drag queens. I don't know how the best to describe them.
There's not a car in sight in this thirty second ad.
And I mean, if you didn't know any better, you
would not figure out the Jaguars a car company. So
we were trying to figure out why would they be
doing this? So I asked how Jaguar ranks to chat

(57:00):
GPT and I had them list fifteen luxury car brands.
It actually has them sixth, sixth. You found a list
that had them wear twelfth, a lot lower than that twelve.

Speaker 2 (57:10):
About a fifteen sandwich between Cadillac and Chrysler, which you
would not have guessed Jaguar to be there. You could
make the argument it's time to zag, right if you're
really trying to like lean into a complete different direction,
you could make the argument zagging is the right move.
I just don't know if zagging in this way makes
any sense. Who are you selling these cars to? And eventually,
are you going to tell this generation of people that

(57:33):
you're a car company? Like, who is that four? Who
is the advertising four? I don't know. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (57:38):
We have no answers for you, ladies and gentlemen. I
know I was never going to be able to buy
a Jaguar in the first place. The cars look pretty cool,
but if I was going for a luxury brand, I
would go to someplace like an Audi, which leads me
to my next point. Matt Case pretty adamantly said that
he didn't think it Audi was a luxury car brand,
didn't you.

Speaker 2 (57:54):
Well, you can't no revision his history now, bub Yeah,
Like I said, all of my knowledge of luxury cars
basically comes from playing the video game Grand Tarisma when
I was a kid, and I just don't remember Audi
being this super fancy car. I mean, I was always
shooting for the Dodge Viper myself. Yeah, because Dodge is

(58:15):
a luxury car brand. No, they're not get over yourse,
but that vaight Viper with the with the blue with
the white pin stripes. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (58:25):
Anybody that's driven a car game that actually was legitimate,
like legitimately going forward with this, you know, I asked,
like Hey, you know what, I'd love to have his
car in real life. I feel that way about some
cars from the Get game. Blur out he was in
that game, and I drove out he's in that game.
So I asked Chad TPT to rank the top fifteen

(58:46):
luxury car brands.

Speaker 2 (58:47):
I mentioned. Jaguar was listed as sixth.

Speaker 1 (58:49):
Number one was Mercedes Bins, number two was BMW, and
number three was Oudy.

Speaker 2 (58:54):
What says Mat Case, Well, according to that list, I
was wrong. You were very wrong, incredibly wrong. That's okay.

Speaker 1 (59:01):
I asked chat GPT to roast you, by the way, Okay,
I said, my friend Matt doesn't think Audi is a
luxury car brand. Can you help me roast him?

Speaker 2 (59:10):
Why?

Speaker 1 (59:10):
Chat GPT sa chat GPT says, haha, I can help
with that. Here's a fun roast you can use on
Matt to set him straight about Audi's luxury status.

Speaker 2 (59:20):
Bring it on, chat GPT. Matt Man, you must have
missed the memo. Audi is literally the definition of luxury,
is it?

Speaker 8 (59:30):
Now?

Speaker 2 (59:30):
If you think Audi isn't a luxury brand, you might
as well say that the Mona Lisa is just a
decent painting that never really impressed me. Because that's how
off track you are. You've got the craftsmanship, you've got
the tech, you've got the sleep design. It's like saying
that a Michelin starred restaurant is just fancy fast food.

(59:50):
What the Michelin man? What are we talking tires? Come on,
I don't eat tires. Chat GPT. Tell me when was
the last time you saw a seventy thousand dollars car
with a luxury badge that wasn't outy? I mean, the
A eight is literally a direct competitor to the Mercedes
bins as class. It's got techo advanced. It's like the
cars trying to apply for a job at NASA. Wow,

(01:00:12):
but hey, maybe you just think a fancy steering wheel
is overrated and the leather's too soft. Maybe we should
stick you in something a little bit more your speed,
like a tricycle. Whoa chat GPT. Okay, all right, I'll
see after the show. Wow me me outside, catch me outside?

(01:00:33):
How yeah? Something tells me I could just unplug you
real quick, chat GPT, you and me and the ring.
I'll just sneak behind you and whoops, just unplugged you.
We're good now, see you later. I'm telling you solar
flare Chat GPT's all high and mighty right now. One
solar flare and me and the amish, You're gonna be running.

Speaker 5 (01:00:52):
This whole world.

Speaker 2 (01:00:55):
Man, Oh boy, that last one's a zigger. Dang it was.
Maybe we should stick you in something a little bit
more your speed, like a try do just Audi make
tricycles and I don't think so. I don't think so.
Uh cha.

Speaker 1 (01:01:12):
GBT also wanted to remind me throwing a smile in
a playful nudge, and I'm sure Matt will get the
picture and he might even google Audi luxury status just
to check smiley face man, Chad GPT A plus.

Speaker 2 (01:01:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:01:27):
See, this is what AI was made for. I don't
need it to help me, like cheat on exams or
write essays for me. I just I wanted to tell jokes.
You wanted to make fun of your friends.

Speaker 2 (01:01:43):
I love it. I love it anyway. I just wanted to.
I wanted to make sure that you knew.

Speaker 1 (01:01:47):
Audi was a luxury brand, and you were insanely off
track in the way that you talked about it last hour.
So now you know, now you know, Matt, Hopefully you've
learned your lesson. Uh anyway, my name is Zimmary Songer,
that's Matt Case. It is World Hello Day. It is
also a day of giving. It's a hope for the
hungry radiothon that we've been doing throughout the entire show.

(01:02:08):
We're going to continue to do until six o'clock. And
we've had a great gift come in. Our friend Christy
called in and has helped twenty people. That's a gift
of a thousand dollars. Christy, we cannot thank you enough
for helping us today. Also Hollis with five people that
they have helped, Rob with a couple of people as well.
These are all incredible numbers that are helping us give

(01:02:31):
money and care and food, hat and gloves. Like the
money goes to our friends at Open Door Mission because
they put all this together to help people. And forty
nine dollars gift is all it takes for us to
give to Open Door Mission and that helps one person
through the week of Thanksgiving to get that food in
that care along with that hat and glove set, which
we know with we talked about it. The weather is

(01:02:53):
taking a quick cooler turn under freezing, you know, multiple
days and nights, you know you got to keep in
mind that you might be waking up in the morning
and it'd be under thirty degrees. You don't want people
out there to not have the ability to keep themselves warm.
So here's a couple of ways you can give. Opendoor
Mission dot org is the website opendoor mission dot org

(01:03:13):
and of course you can go there. There's a link
right there for the forty nine dollars gift and you
can give as many gifts as you would like. We
would definitely appreciate it if you wanted to give us more.
And also you can call in at four oh two
eight nine eight four six seven three four oh two
eight nine eight four six seven three. That is the
phone number that you can call in and they'll help
you in the phone bank. And we are still are

(01:03:34):
running out of our match, but that's great. We want
to finish getting that match from our friends at retire
Smart who are matching up to ten thousand dollars during
our show here in the afternoon, So we would love
for you to be able to give for our hope
for the Hungry Radio Tunnel will continue to give you
updates as the show goes on up to the six
o'clock hour. Thanks for listening to us and we can't

(01:03:55):
wait for you to give here on news radio eleven
ten KFAB.

Speaker 5 (01:03:58):
Emrys songer with someone You Love on news Radio eleven
ten KFAB.

Speaker 1 (01:04:05):
Forty nine dollars goes toward food and care for the
week thanksgiving for a person and the warmth of a
hat and glove set also goes to them. And you
can you can, I mean forty nine dollars isn't all
you have to If you want to give more, you can.
You can give as much as you'd like. And we
have a match up to ten thousand dollars for almost
there from our friends are retire Smart. There will be
more matches coming in after that, so make sure you

(01:04:27):
get your calls in. The phone number is four oh
two eight nine eight four six seven three four oh
two eight nine eight four six seven three. And also
you can give by going to opendoor mission dot org.
Opendoor mission dot org. You can go to kfab dot com.
There's a link there on our website as well. Big
thanks to David who helped five people here in the
last ten minutes or so, to Noel, Cindy and Mary

(01:04:48):
who all gave for two people, and then Brian who
gave for one as well. Every single one of those matter.
Thank you so much to everyone who has been giving
for our hope for the Hungary campaign. Here today, Yeah,
we'll be doing that and we'll get an update on
how the numbers are looking in about ten minutes or so.
And I want to get to the Matt Gates statement.
I'll read that in full to you. But James emailed

(01:05:10):
me Matt Emory at kfab dot com and he was
inspired to ask grok g r ok. Remember grock was
like an AI software basically, yeah, and he wanted to
see what it would say when he asked it. My friend,
Matt says, Audi isn't a luxury car brand. Can you
help me roast him? Because I had chat GBT do

(01:05:32):
the same thing right and it was pretty good. Okay,
here's what came back, Ah, dear friend, it seems Matt's
automotive lexicon is stuck in the past, possibly still confusing
luxury with the price of a good sandwich. Wo, luxury
with the price of a good sandwich. Dang, Matt, you
talk about about Audi did not go well for you here?

Speaker 2 (01:05:54):
Well, you know what these days a really nice sandwich
is going to cost you a luxury.

Speaker 1 (01:06:00):
I just saying, you know, okay, it says, let's enlighten him,
shall we? And so here's the roast, Matt. Audi not
a luxury brand. That's like saying The Hitchhiker's Guide to
the Galaxy is just another travel book. Audy with its
quatro system that made snow tires think they're on vacation.
It's interiors that make leather jackets feel inadequate, and it's

(01:06:21):
engines that sound like they're purring with disdain at lesser cars.
Perhaps you've mistaken it for the luxury of a fast
food drive through. Maybe next time you'll tell us the
space needle is just a tall toothpeck. Maybe there that
should give him a moment to reflect on his automotive blasphemy.
That's what Grox said to you.

Speaker 2 (01:06:40):
Any retort, No, I just you know, it's fine and everything.
I just, uh, I don't know. I mean Audi to
me is it's be careful. It's it's just my perception.
I've always looked at Audi is kind of like that
right beneath luxury, you know, like the luxury you can

(01:07:01):
afford kind of thing, you know, and you've been you're
wrong just to say you're wrong, I've proved, I've given
you multiple We found multiple sources that say it's at
worse like third in luxury. I guess. So I don't know.
But what what defines luxury these days?

Speaker 8 (01:07:17):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:07:18):
I don't know. On those same lists, Rolls Royce was
like fifteenth. Yeah, so what are we saying? Well, Jaguars
the old reason we're talking about this. They're kind of
midpac two what right, And so they're clearly making an
appeal to elitists everywhere so that they can move up
the list. Is that what that is? I think so
it's they're the androgynoust people that look like drag queens

(01:07:40):
with no cars in sight. Is kind of like a
play to the elites that feel like that lifestyle is
one that they want a campaign or whatever on. You
think that that will make more of those people, Well,
I think it's just going to confuse a lot of
blue collar folk. But what blue collar person's buying a
Jaguar exactly? They weren't before either. Nobody's talked this much

(01:08:03):
about Jaguar in decades. Saw One person, though, found a
group of four of their old nineteen seventies ads, and
it's the cars, like you're in the jungle and the
cars are sitting there, and it says, capture a jaguar.
Oh yeah, that's good. See yeah, there's another one on
the word.

Speaker 1 (01:08:20):
There's another one where there's a jaguar that's in the
middle of the jungle and it says its appearance precisely
indicates its capability leaf supple powerful.

Speaker 2 (01:08:30):
Of all the big cats, it is the most beautiful
in motion. That's the ad, So I don't say anything
about a car. It talks about the big cat and
it's a picture of the car in the jungle like
a jaguar would be. Oh it's this was the seventies.
You know how many say probably sold on these. There's
another one of it's like you're seeing it just out
in the open while you're looking through like jungle trees,

(01:08:50):
and it says domesticated, not declaude. And then the last
one they share here says nobody's pussy cat And it's
just down in the middle of like jungle grass and
a woman is standing next to the vehicle and I
get to see the cars. They're showing me the cars.
What a novel idea? Maybe that maybe we should start there.
But I think that this ad was intentionally not doing
that because because one of the people in the ad

(01:09:13):
had a sledgehammer, and then at the end you saw
a rock, right, so implying that they're breaking the mold
and creating a new one for who though for George Clooney,
I've heard he's moving to Europe and Rosie O'Donnell, you
think she'd get into the Jaguar maybe I think they
make nice cars. Is just it just doesn't sound like
there's been a lot of good things being said about

(01:09:34):
these ads. I wonder, I wonder if this is going
to be backlash enough for them to abandon the campaign
and fire some people like it was for Anheuser Busch
and just throwing that out there. Anyway.

Speaker 1 (01:09:44):
Yeah, here's here's a here's a good somebody somebody posted
something with Lamborghini. The people a Lamborghini said we don't
do commercials, and they don't. Have you seen a Lamborghini
commercial ever? No, said we don't do commercials because their
target audience isn't sitting around watching TV.

Speaker 2 (01:09:57):
WHOA interesting, But they're right? So so who is this
four Jaguar? Who is this four? What if they have
a series of other commercials that feature you know, all
kinds of different people and all kinds of different you know, settings,
And what if they have a commercial next week that
has the Beverly Hillbilly's theme and you know it's a

(01:10:17):
couple people from the South who are in a Jaguar. Yeah,
you know, and they're branching out to a different demo.
I don't know, Jaguar, why not what? I'm just positing
the idea that maybe that you know, like when you
have an ad campaign, I mean, who is buying a Jaguar?
You have to start with that. Who's the target demo?

(01:10:39):
First of all? Mostly European people would be my guess.
I don't know how many Americans are buying Jaguars. Although
there are Jaguar dealers in America, who's going there? It's
somebody who's got like one hundred thousand dollars spent on
a car. And think about who's moving to Europe right now?

Speaker 1 (01:10:51):
Yeah, the people with a million dollars just in their
back pocket because they're Hollywood elites. Yeah yeah, well, I
don't know. I wouldn't put the ad on social media
then just to get roasted because that can't be good
for business when somebody puts, like when we talk about
me on social media, there's people underneath that that comment
and talk about how stupid I look with my hair,

(01:11:12):
or they talk about, you know, how dumb I am
on the radio, and you know that hurts my feelings
and I'm sure isn't good for my overall brand. I
couldn't imagine what this is like when hundreds of thousands
of people are piling on Jaguar right now.

Speaker 2 (01:11:22):
You know why they had to put it on social media?

Speaker 5 (01:11:25):
Why?

Speaker 2 (01:11:25):
Well, back in the old days, they used to pass
it around the Diddy parties, but those got shut down. Yo, whoa,
I'm just saying, dang uh huh, whoa, whoa that chat
GPT day chatz EPT wasn't there. I don't care. You
can't put jat GBT and say that it was at
the Diddy parties. Yes they were. Chat GPT was at
a Didty party and I can prove it. No you can't.

(01:11:48):
I could prove it. No you can't. Well, they're the
ones who roasted me.

Speaker 1 (01:11:54):
Anyway, Okay, real quick, Matt Getz earlier. I know this
is the news. You probably want to hear me opine
on I gave plenty of opinion on this. I need
to know more. I need to know more. I don't
want to I don't want to speculate as to why
he's deciding to do this, except for what he said
on his social media, which I'm going to read right
now from Matt Gates earlier this. I guess it was
in the afternoon for him, late morning for us. He said,

(01:12:15):
I had excellent meetings with senators yesterday. I appreciate their
thoughtful feedback and the incredible support of so many. While
the momentum was strong, it is clear my confirmation was
unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the
Trump Vance transition. There is no time to waste on
a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle. Thus I'll be withdrawing my
name from consideration to serve as Attorney General. Trump's DOJ

(01:12:37):
must be in place and ready on day one. I
remain fully committed to see that Donald J. Trump is
the most successful president in history. I will forever be
honored that President Trump nominated me to lead the Department
of Justice, and I'm certain he will save America.

Speaker 2 (01:12:51):
End quote.

Speaker 1 (01:12:52):
So a couple of options like I mentioned back in
the two o'clock hour, you can find the full you know,
my full thoughts on it. But there's definitely like an
here where he could be named the Senator by Ron
DeSantis to replace to replace Marco Rubio is going to
become the Secretary of State once he is confirmed, which
I don't think there's going to be any problem for that.
There's also a chance that that would be bad news

(01:13:14):
as well, because all of these rumors are circulating, and
apparently they were just a couple of days away in
the House from releasing their findings on the Ethics Committee
about their investigation into what he had done or what
they found him to do when it comes to sex trafficking,
which is unfortunately the way that they determining the terminology
they're using for this. But he apparently had been paying people,

(01:13:37):
based on the allegations. I don't know for sure, paying
people for sexual relations, including potentially a minor a few
years ago.

Speaker 2 (01:13:46):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:13:47):
I don't know what's next for Matt Gates, and I
don't know what other distractions the Republicans are willing to
withstand to have him be a part of the party here,
but we will let you know when we know that,
we do know if that made sense hopefully at them.

Speaker 2 (01:14:00):
Right now it's four forty seven. Thanks for listening. We'll
have an update for you from our Hope of the
Hungry Radio thought to give you more information about how
you can donate coming up next right here on news
Radio eleven ten kfab kandas how are we doing so
far here as we wrap up our third hour? Amazing?

Speaker 7 (01:14:14):
How's that?

Yeah, Kermit was our last gift for that match, one
thousand dollars. He took it all. One thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:14:30):
Wow, Kermit.

Speaker 7 (01:14:30):
Thank you to our listeners and their heart and just
their their generosity has been overwhelming today. But Dick and
Ann is stepping up to the plate and in these
next thirty minutes he's going to match up to five
thousand dollars. So if you've been sitting on the fence,
this is a good time. Dick has done so much
for the mission over the years, not to mention sponsoring

(01:14:52):
Thanksgiving turkeys for our consumer food pantry and for Thanksgiving Day.
But we have a warehouse now on our campus that
holds all of donated items emory that we don't have
to now beg and borrow from all over the community. Hey,
can I put a skid here? Can I put a
frozen palette here? We now have it all on our campus,
so we can actually give it away in a more

(01:15:13):
efficient manner and be good stewards of what we're getting
through the doors in donations.

Speaker 2 (01:15:18):
It's amazing.

Speaker 1 (01:15:19):
So Dick ganan five thousand dollars, we have, you know,
until five thirty or so, about five twenty five twenty okay,
so to five twenty, So we got to go now.
If you want to make sure that your gift is doubled,
there are a couple ways you can give. Open door
mission dot org is the website. There's a button right there.
It's very easy for people to give. Forty nine dollars

(01:15:39):
helps one person. You can give up like Kermit and
several others throughout the afternoon have given up to one
thousand dollars, which helps twenty people, and then the match
that goes into that up to five thousand dollars for
Dick ganand for the next twenty five minutes or so.
And also what's the phone number, Candice, that people can
call in to help them to.

Speaker 7 (01:15:57):
Eight ninety eight four six seven three. And when you call, well,
we will give you the name of a man, woman, child,
or a veteran emory. And we're hoping that you'll just
take that and make that name card, put it on
your fridge to just remember when you're eating, someone else
is eating because of your generosity. Maybe set a place
setting to your grandchildren. No, hey, I just want to
let you know, Nana and Papa we sponsored a person

(01:16:19):
so that they could eat this Thanksgiving and just remember them.

Speaker 2 (01:16:22):
That is such a great idea, and I think it
is totally for us.

Speaker 1 (01:16:28):
It is it's good to know that our gift is
going somewhere. But it's also I think important for us
during Thanksgiving to recognize what the whole reason for the
season can be giving thanks And you're going to be
the reason that somebody's going to be able to do
that this holiday season.

Speaker 2 (01:16:42):
Yes, so true.

Speaker 1 (01:16:43):
We're going to talk one more time to you in
the five o'clock hour, Candice, so don't go too far away,
And once again you can give forty to nine dollars
is the gift to help one person. You can give
as much as you feel comfortable giving. We're not going
to pressure you to do too many other things. Just
whatever it makes sense for you. Call four h two
eight nine eight four six seven three four oh two
