Oh man, oh man, they.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
Get to it all, and we're doing just that today.
Thank you so much for being here with us today.
We are full speed ahead the video and we haven't
seen it until now. These bunker buster bombs dropping. If
you're watching a live scenes Moondessey and you'll be able
to see this. But also if you'd like to go
see it later, you can go and check that out.
We post the videos obviously every day that we do
these streams, Facebook, Twitter, ACTOM will get our locals YouTube

(01:34):
now all those different places where you actually go back
and watch it. I would say, while you're that click subscribe,
make sure you get there and do it. We're learning
more and more about that operation after the Pentagon today
and the big hearing. We'll bring us some of that too.
From Secretary of Defence Pete Hegseth. The hoax is completely crumbled.

(01:55):
It's confirmed. They told you about this yesterday. I said,
this is another hoax. It's just another one. Folks don't
fall for it. And I will say I think lots
of people did not because not only have you been
listening to this program, or you just have any sort
of common sense.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
Instilled in you, you then you probably did not. You
didn't fall for it.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
But there there are people that do. That's why I'm
so vocal about getting the word out there. Speaking of
being vocal, are good friend. Mike Lindell has been a fighter.
He's been in the fight four years now we're learning.
This just popped up. This just popped up on my feet.
By the way, it was a memory from last year.

(02:39):
Check this out breaking. Fulton County, Georgia has moved to
destroy twenty tony ballots before they can be unsealed, copied,
and inspected for counterfeits, claiming there's no longer room in
a secure warehouse for them, even though the county just
opened a new sixty thousand square foot elections operation warehouse
that came last year. Last year, Folks on today, this

(03:01):
is about a year ago today. And what don't we
find out just a week or so back again, we're
finding out the FBI not only knew that China was
trying to print and make up fake counterfeit ballots, what
they were trying to print and make up fake IDs
to get people and voting that they shouldn't be to
be a chance to be able to do that. And
we also find out that the FBI was trying to

(03:22):
cover all this up, didn't want it to become public.
This is a former FBI under Biden's regime. Isn't that interesting?
Make those two make sense? And they told Mike that
he was it's just a croc. You know, this guy
was a quack. He doesn't know anything I'm telling you today.
They've put him through the wringer. They really want to
shut him up, but Mike refuses to do so. He's

(03:43):
a good man of faith and God bless him. Support
Mike today and my program. At the same time, when
you go to my pillow dot com slash justin, they

of good stuff that you will love for gifts for dads,
grads and the rest of them. Plus you know big

But do it today, Help support Mike and the team
at my pillow. Plus you can help support me at
the same exact time, and we appreciate you. Here it
is video of what these bunker bombs, these busters look like.

(04:28):
General Dan Raisin Kane showing one of these tests that
they did previously on the screen of the Pentagon.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
Today.

Speaker 1 (04:39):
You see the fire coming out that whole fire in
the hole. Folks, look at the size of that thing.
It goes right inside penetrates the ground. Now you realize
it doesn't blow up until it gets to a certain point.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
It just penetrates.

Speaker 3 (05:04):
Keep it going for a minute. You'll see inside the
inside the mission space.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
They set it to go off at a certain point.
There it is. There's a fire in a hole, and
there's the hole that you see.

Speaker 3 (05:18):
Unlike a normal surface bomb, you won't see an impact
crater because they're designed to deeply bury and then function.
I know there's been a lot like a needle.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
It needs to get underneath the surface.

Speaker 3 (05:31):
The questions about that all six weapons at each vent
at four doh went exactly where they were intended to go.
A bomb has three effects that causes damage, blast, fragmentation,
and overpressure. In this case, the primary kill mechanism in

(05:53):
the mission space was a mix of overpressure and blast
ripping through the open tunnels and destroy critical hardware. The
majority of the damage we assessed based on our extensive modeling,
was a blast layer combined with the impulse extending from
the shock. Imagine what this looks like six times over.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
It's incredible. I'm the technology there now again. These particular bombs,
these particular bunker busters, they you know bunker busters are
you know, they're you know terminology right, It's been out
there around for a while. But this particular of the
GBU fifty seven mop mops work like any other he says,

(06:42):
any other work like unlike normal surface bomb. You don't
see an impact crater because they're designed to deeply bury
and then function all six weapons at each vent at
Forde when exactly where they were intended to go. Folks,
this is a mission and a success unlike anything that

(07:03):
you have ever seen before, and it is It's just
a shame that it's been treated the way it has.
It's just a shame because at the same time you
have this success just a whole other level, right, And
we ought to be proud, is Americans. We want to
be proud that our engineerity still to we be told

(07:23):
that we're finished. We'll be told that the country's over
hang it up, just shut up and sit down. But
that's not the case. A country remains intact, the strength
remains intact. You just got to have somebody at the
helm who gives a rip.

Speaker 4 (07:41):
I don't know how any American could listen to General
Kane talk about this mission and not think it was
flawlessly executed. We'll get more on the battle damage assessment
in the coming days, in the coming weeks, but a
remarkable operation, and let's not forget that it was preceded
by the Israelis taking out nuclear scientists, taking out the
ballistic missile capability, and then something only the United States

(08:03):
could do, which is this incredible attack on these three
nuclear facilities. So when people say weeks months, imagine what
it must be like to go to Fourdeaux right now
and try to understand it may be a live nuclear
site for all we know in in terms of those
attacks on the centrifuge there. So this is of course
dramatic damage on the nuclear program of Iran. How much

(08:25):
that damage permeates the three facilities I think we'll learn
more about in the coming weeks, but absolutely flawlessly executed,
flawless operational security, not no leaks beforehand, a complete surprise.
I think it was great leadership by the President and
a great operation by the military.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
And I don't know.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
He's absolutely right. I mean, that was a McCormick congers
from McCormick. I just I cannot imagine. I just cannot
imagine anybody having any common sense looking at this and
thinking any other way. By the way, President Trump already

(09:10):
speaking out about the news conference this morning at the Pentagon,
one of the greatest, most professional, and most confirming news
conferences I've ever seen. The fake news should fire everyone
involved in a witch hunt and apologize to our great
warriors and everyone else. He's right, it was a very
different press conference. In fact, there was one moment. This

(09:35):
is I think one of the moments. It stands out
the most to me, because they're trying to play these
games and Segrety Defense p Texas says equals you know,
We're we're not doing that anymore. We're not playing your
games anymore. There was one specific They're trying to get him,
why didn't you say that there were women involved in this?

(09:59):
And he says, of course they're women. We want more
women to be involved in this. We want women, but
we want all the folks to be exactly We're not
playing these racist, sexist division games. Listen to how he
handled this.

Speaker 5 (10:13):
Acknowledge the female pilots that also participated in this mission.
The early messages that you sent out only congratulated.

Speaker 6 (10:21):
So when I say something like our boys and bombers,
see this is the kind of thing the press does.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
Right.

Speaker 6 (10:25):
Of course, the chairman mentioned a female bomber pilot. That's fantastic.
She's fantastic, she's a hero. I want more female bomber pilots.
I hope the men and women of our country sign
up to do such brave and audacious things.

Speaker 7 (10:36):
But when you spin it as because I say our boys.

Speaker 6 (10:38):
And bombers as a common phrase, I'll keep saying things
like that, whether they're men or women. Very proud of
that female pilot, just like I'm very proud of those
male pilots. And I don't care if it's a male
or a female in that cockpit, and the American people
don't care. But it's the obsession with race and gender
in this department that's changed priorities and we don't do

(10:59):
that anymore.

Speaker 7 (10:59):
We don't play your little games.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
Yes, absolutely loved it.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
Was like I said, this was a This was a
sort of a press conference, a briefing unlike anything else
I have seen. And there's there's actually more from Let's
let's get into some of these other pieces, because like
I said, it's forty five minutes. We only have highlights
really the to go through. But you know it's like

(11:27):
forty five minutes worth of a press conference live from
the Pentagon. So here's what we have u some of
the different highlights. This is hegseeth setting the table. What
President Trump accomplished in NATO yesterday game changing and historic.
And again this is probably a piece that we didn't
spend enough time on, but he's got these countries deciding.

Speaker 2 (11:50):
To give more.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
They're going to have more funding for NATO, but they
got to pay their fair share. And the way he
worked into this was genius.

Speaker 6 (11:58):
What President Trump accomplished in NATO yesterday was game changing
and historic, a shift in burden sharing to European responsibility
in NATO that most would have said was impossible at
the beginning of his term.

Speaker 7 (12:13):
But he said NATO needs to pay up.

Speaker 6 (12:16):
They started in the first term, and here in his
second term, we've accelerated that. Thirty two NATO countries committed
to spending five percent of their GDP on defense. That's
incredible on actually investing in the NATO alliance.

Speaker 7 (12:30):
So I hope, with all the ink spilled, all of your.

Speaker 6 (12:33):
Outlets find the time to properly recognize this historic change
in continental security that other presidents tried to do. Other
presidents talked about. President Trump accomplished it.

Speaker 7 (12:47):
It's a huge deal.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
It is, and again it's probably one that we didn't
have enough time really to talk about him lea in
the last day or so, but one worth talking about.
Here he is with the intelligence reports, the latest on
the strikes. This is a good one because this really
lays out for folks everything you heard the last day
or so, the last twenty four hours, how was fake news,
Why it was designed to make you feel a certain

(13:12):
way and folks react a certain way, and of course
ultimately to throw shane on President Trump and this particular mission.
But he's going to lay out what actually happened.

Speaker 6 (13:26):
I want to read some of the assessments that have
been provided because whether it's fake news, CNN, MSNBC or
The New York Times. There's been fawning coverage of a
preliminary assessment.

Speaker 7 (13:39):
I've had a chance to read it.

Speaker 6 (13:41):
Every outlet has breathlessly reported on a preliminary assessment from
DA I'm looking at it right now again. It was
preliminary a day and a half after the actual strike.
When it admits itself in writing that it requires weeks
to accumulate the necessary data to make such an assessments preliminary,
it points out that it's not been coordinated with the

(14:02):
intelligence community at all.

Speaker 7 (14:05):
There's low confidence in this particular report, it says in
the report. There are gaps in the information. It says
in the report.

Speaker 6 (14:12):
Multiple lynchpin assumptions are what this assessment a lynchpin assumption.

Speaker 7 (14:17):
You know what that is.

Speaker 6 (14:18):
It means your entire premis is predicated on a lynch pin.

Speaker 7 (14:21):
If you're wrong, everything else is wrong.

Speaker 6 (14:23):
And yet still this report acknowledges it's likely severe damage.

Speaker 7 (14:28):
Again, this is preliminary, but.

Speaker 6 (14:30):
Leaked because someone had an agenda to try to muddy
the waters and make it look like this historic strike
I wasn't successful. I'm gonna get to the chairman in
a moment, because he's gonna lay out the particulars for you.

Speaker 7 (14:41):
Based on his professional military experience. But here's what other
folks are saying.

Speaker 6 (14:45):
The DEIA that put that report out says that this
is a preliminary, low confidence report and will continue to
be refined as additional intelligence becomes available.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
You know, I must have missed CNN telling us a
piece about this.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
US to miss cbo sege.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
Hey, there's a report out that says and by the way,
it's a low confidence it's initial. There's not a lot
of information here. But they say that maybe, but of
course maybe not.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
This is what happened.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
They don't tell you any of that when you get
down to the specifics and why the context matter. They
spend everything on purpose.

Speaker 6 (15:23):
How about the Israeli Atomic Energy Commission. The devastating US
strikes on FOURDEAUX destroyed the site's critical infrastructure and rendered
the enrichment facility inoperable. Have any of these quotes made
their way into the New York Times or the Washington Post?

Speaker 2 (15:38):
Great, MSNBC, great question.

Speaker 7 (15:40):
CNN, any of these quotes? How about this one?

Speaker 6 (15:43):
This is a new one from the UN, The United Nations.
No friend of the United States or certainly Israel often.
Here's the head of the UN Atomic Energy Agency this morning,
Raphael Grossi, US and Israeli strikes caused enormous damage to
Iran's nuclear sites.

Speaker 7 (16:02):
Don't take my word for it. How about the IDF's
chief of staff.

Speaker 6 (16:05):
I can say here that the assessment is that we
significantly damage the nuclear program, setting.

Speaker 7 (16:10):
It back by years. I repeat years.

Speaker 6 (16:14):
The Iranian foreign minister, the spokesman, our nuclear instrations have
been badly damaged.

Speaker 7 (16:19):
That's for sure. I'm sure that's an understatement.

Speaker 6 (16:23):
John Radcliffe, the director of the CIA, putting out a
statement just last night. CIA can confirm that a body
of credible intelligence indicates Iran's nuclear program has been severely
damaged by recent targeted strikes.

Speaker 7 (16:37):
This includes new intelligence from.

Speaker 6 (16:39):
A historically reliable, very different than preliminary assessment with low confidence.
He's saying, historically reliable and accurate source of method that
several key Iranian nuclear facilities were destroyed and would have
to be rebuilt over the course of years. CIA continues

(16:59):
to collect additional, reliably sourced information to keep appropriate decision
makers fully informed.

Speaker 7 (17:07):
How about DNI.

Speaker 6 (17:08):
Telsea Gabbard yesterday, she writes, and I quote new intelligence
confirms what POTUS has stated numerous times. Iran's nuclear facilities
have been destroyed. Institute for Science and International Security President
David Albright. Overall Israel and US attacks have effectively destroyed

(17:30):
you and Iran's centrifuge enrichment program time and time again.
I can go down the list those that understand, those
that see, those that do proper assessments recognize that what
the United States military did was historic.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
You know, there are going to be people that and
I'm watching people talk about this in the chat right
now in the comments, and I agree. I mean, there's
giving people that just do not It doesn't matter what
you say, it doesn't matter what they find now, they
don't care. It's because Trump de arrangement syndrome is a
real thing. It completely disconnects people from reality, it really does.

(18:11):
And it's a shame, but it's exactly what these folks
are are counting on. What they're praying on. Sec Derek
and Fence, a pdxth actually mentions that and who the
real victims are.

Speaker 6 (18:23):
So many aspects of what our brave men and women
did that because.

Speaker 7 (18:27):
Of the hatred of this press.

Speaker 6 (18:28):
Corps are undermined because your people are trying to leak
and spin that it wasn't successful. It's irresponsible, and folks
in this room are privy to that information because of
the proximity here in the Pentagon.

Speaker 7 (18:43):
It's an important responsibility.

Speaker 6 (18:45):
And time and time again, classified information is leaked or
pedaled for political purposes to try to make the president
look bad. And what's really happening is you're undermining the
success of incredible B two pilots and incredible F thirty
five pilots and incredible and incredible air defenders.

Speaker 1 (19:02):
I think they're going to go after these people. I
think whoever the leakers are, I think they're going to
get prosecuted treason. Maybe a high high bar for them
in races, but I believe it is. But you're going
to see a Department of Justice after these people in
ways that we haven't seen before. I think you're going
to see folks charged.

Speaker 6 (19:21):
Who accomplished their mission set back a nuclear program in
ways that other presidents would have dreamed.

Speaker 7 (19:28):
How about we celebrate that.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
In fact, what did that look like? General Raisin Kane
laying out the specifics Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of
staff telling the story of the brave Patriot miss of
the fence crew who led the defense of the Al
Daid air bashed Moran's counter strikes. These are the people
that they tried to firearm. You know, this is this

(19:51):
is this is wild. But did you know that just
a couple of people there. They moved everybody out in time.
They had warning that the strikes were coming. Just a
couple of people there. Listen to the courage of what
these young men did.

Speaker 3 (20:07):
First on Monday, As the President has stated, on Monday morning,
we began to receive indications and warnings that Iran intended
to attack US bases in the region that morning. Building
on the work that Sencom Commander Eric Carilla had done
and on the orders of the President. At Aludd Airbase

(20:29):
and Quitar and around the region, we assumed a minimum
force posture.

Speaker 7 (20:33):
Most folks had moved off.

Speaker 3 (20:35):
The base to extend the security perimeter out away from
what we assessed might be a target zone. Except for
a very few Army soldiers at Aluded at that point,
only two Patriot batteries remained on base. Roughly forty four
American soldiers responsible for defending the entire base to include

(21:00):
Sencom's forward headquarters in the Middle East, an entire air base,
and all the US forces there. The oldest soldier was
a twenty eight year old captain. The youngest was a
twenty one year old private who'd been in the military
for less than two years. So let's put ourselves out

(21:22):
there for a second. Imagine you're that young first lieutenant.
You're twenty five or twenty six years old, and you've
been assigned as the tactical director inside the Command and
Control Element. You, at that age, are the sole person
responsible to defend this base. Listening next to you as

(21:43):
your early warning operator whose job is to notify you
of imminent attack. There's five people inside a vehicle and
five people outside of a vehicle around these a total of,
as I said, forty four. By the way, you've sat
in the Middle East for years, deployed over and over again,

(22:04):
extended multiple times, always being prepared but unsure of when
that particular day will come that you must execute your
mission and not fail at doing it. In this case,
these Patriot crews were deployed from Korea and Japan as
part of our US forces there to ensure that we

(22:24):
had the most capable missiles in the Sencom area of responsibility.
As the day continues, you start to hear more and
more chatter in the information space about an appending attack,
and as the sun starts to set in the west,
you get orders from your higher headquarters to make sure

(22:44):
that your missile batteries are pointed to the north. There
are just a few other teammates. It's hot, you're getting nervous,
and you expect an attack outside of those Patriot vehicles.
Your hot crew, which is one inch and four additional soldiers,
turns a key and relinquishes control of those missiles to

(23:06):
that young lieutenant inside the vehicle, and you wait. You
know that you're going to have approximately two minutes, one
hundred and twenty seconds to either succeed or fail. And
then at approximately twelve thirty pm on Monday, that's seven
thirty pm in Katar, as the sun sets in the west,

(23:29):
Iran attacks. As the targets were detected, round after round
of Patriot missiles are ejected from their canisters by an
initial launch charge. Then the main solid rocket motor ignites.
You can feel this in your body if you've ever
been around a Patriot taking a shot, and round after

(23:50):
round goes out and guides against those missiles coming inbound.
We believe that this is the largest single patriot engagement
in US military history, and we were enjoy We were
joined in this engagement by the Katari patriot crews. I'm
not going to tell you how many rounds were shot,
but it was a bunch because of classified purposes, and

(24:14):
we're aware that something there's reports of something getting through.
What we do know is there was a lot of
metal flying around between attacking missiles being hit by patriots,
boosters from attacking missiles being hit by patriots, the Patriots
themselves flying around in the debris from those Patriots hitting
the ground. There was a lot of metal flying around,

(24:36):
and yet our US air defenders had only seconds to
make complex decisions with strategic impact. These awesome humans, along
with their Katari brothers and sisters and arms, stood between
a salvo of Iranian missiles and the.

Speaker 7 (24:52):
Safety of value.

Speaker 3 (24:53):
Deed, they are the unsung heroes of the twenty first
century United States Army, and I know all a lot
of you have seen the videos online and the excitement
as those Patriots departed their launchers and went up and guided.
This really demonstrates the combat capability and capacity of our
army Air defenders simply stated, they absolutely crushed it.

Speaker 1 (25:19):
Have you ever seen a briefing like this before? Have
you ever seen anything like this? General Raisin Caine fantastic.
In fact, he laid out the mission, this whole mission
of going in to get this these nuclear sites blown up.
And the time that's gone into it. Do you know

(25:41):
this more than fifteen years, more than fifteen years of
meticulous planning on this whole thing. I guess that's why
I get so.

Speaker 2 (25:51):
Offended.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
I guess I guess why I'm so offended by all
of this stuff of sense not the right word, just
I'm just.

Speaker 2 (26:12):
The truth.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
It matters, folks, The truth matters, And now more than ever,
we're going to be yanked around. We've been yanked around
for a long time. But you just need to know,
you need to know the truth.

Speaker 2 (26:25):
We got breaking news.

Speaker 1 (26:26):

time to invest in gold and silver with the most
significant bull market I've ever seen. But please don't overpay
for your stuff. At k EPM, we focus on low
cost bullion only and we don't charge a commission when

today and tomorrow. So those are just some of the
big reports. We got more coming. Speaking of the reports,
the last fifteen years or more they've been planning what
they did in Iran.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
Now, let me next move to a walkthrough of the
GBU fifty seven Massive Ordnance Penetrator weapon and share a
little bit about the planners who did this and their
work on the weapon. First, let me set the stage
for you. There's an organization in the US called the

(28:27):
Defense Threat Reduction Agency DITTRA. DITTRA does a lot of
things for our nation, but DITTRA is the world's leading
expert on deeply buried underground targets. In two thousand and nine,
a Defense Threat Reduction Agency officer was brought into a

(28:47):
vault at an undisclosed location and briefed on something going
on in Iran for security purposes, I'm not going to
share his name. He was shown some photos and some
highly classified intelligents of what looked like a major construction
project in the mountains of Iran. He was tasked to
study this facility, work with the intelligence community to understand it,

(29:10):
and he was soon joined by an additional teammate. For
more than fifteen years, this off cer and his teammate
lived and breathed this single target four dough, a critical
element of Iran's covert nuclear weapons program. He studied the geology.
He watched the Iranians dig it out. He watched the construction,

(29:32):
the weather, the discard material the geology, the construction materials,
where the materials came from. He looked at the vent shaft,
the exhaust shaft, the electrical systems, the environmental control systems,
every nook, every crater, every piece of equipment going in
and every piece of equipment going out. They literally dreamed

(29:52):
about this target at night when they slept. They thought
about it driving back and forth to work. And they
knew from the very first days what this was for.
You do not build a multi layered underground bunker complex
with centrifuges and other equipment in a mountain for any
peaceful purpose. They weren't able to discuss this with their family,

(30:17):
their wives, their kids, their friends, but they just kept
grinding it out, and along the way they realized we
did not have a weapon that could adequately strike and
kill this target. So they began a journey to work
with industry and other tacticians to develop the GBU fifty seven.
They tested it over and over again, tried different options,

(30:40):
tried more. After that, they accomplished hundreds of test shots
and dropped many full scale weapons against extremely realistic targets
for a single purpose, kill this target at the time
and place of our nation's choosing. And then, on a

(31:00):
day in June of twenty twenty five, more than fifteen
years after they started their life's work, the phone rang
and the President of the United States ordered the B
two force that you've supported to go strike and kill
this target yesterday. I had the incredible honor and privilege
of spending time with these two Defense Threat Reduction Agency
officers who've given so much. One of them said, quote,

(31:24):
I can't even get my head around this. My heart
is so filled with the pride of being a part
of this team. I am so honored to be a
part of this. To you both, thank you, and thank
you to your families. Operation Midnight Hammer was the call
that's incredible.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
Fifteen fifteen years, it's just incredible.

Speaker 3 (31:46):
Elmination of those fifteen years of incredible work. The air crews,
the tanker crews, the weapons crews that built the weapons,
the load crews that load.

Speaker 2 (31:54):
This is massive, folks.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
And I think the other thing and we haven't even
begun to discuss this yet, not only around in Israel,
but what does this do to the rest of the
world in the world stage, to see that you have
a president who's willing to act and you have a
country that's capable of doing things that you could have
never imagined. I guarantee that display of strength will cause

(32:21):
peace to ripple out across the globe in places that
we never never could have imagined. We know where you are,
we can find you, we can get to you anywhere,
go underground.

Speaker 2 (32:40):
It's fine. That that is.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
That is something and the difference between President Trump and
all the ones who came before him.

Speaker 6 (32:50):
We worked to counter Iran's efforts to develop nuclear weapons
and missile technology that.

Speaker 2 (32:54):
Iran should not have a nuclear weapon period.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
I have stated that Iran will never be allowed to
obtain a nuclear weapon.

Speaker 7 (33:02):
We will not allow a Ran to acquire a nuclear weapon.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
Iran's key nuclear and Richmond facilities have been completely and
totally obliterated. Yes, it's just it's something, isn't it. I
absolutely love it, folks, and it is the find out era.
We are smack dab in the middle of it. Speaking

(33:27):
of finding out tonight, no fireside check. Going to try
and rest a voice and get medicated up so I
can stop the synepholds here, so to speak. It's allergies
and I'm fine, We'll deal with it, but I just
do not.

Speaker 2 (33:42):
Make sure to take care of things in the meantime.
