Speaker 1 (00:00):
How should voters look at some of the changes that
you've made that you've explained some.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Of here in your policy.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Is it because you have more experience now and you've
learned more about the information, it because you were running
for president in a Democratic primary? And should they feel
comfortable and confident that what you're saying now is going
to be your policy moving forward?
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Dan, I think the most important and most significant aspect
of my policy perspective and decisions is my values have
not changed. You mentioned the Green New Deal. I have
always believed, and I've worked on it, that the climate
crisis is real, that it is an urgent matter to
(00:45):
which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to
deadlines around time. We did that with the Inflation Reduction Act.
We have set goals for the United States of America
and by extension, the globe, around when we should meet
certain standards for reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. As an example,
that value has not changed. My value around what we
(01:08):
need to do to secure our border, that value has
not changed. I spent two terms as the Attorney General
of California prosecuting transnational criminal organization violations of American laws
regarding the passage, illegal passage of guns, drugs, and human
beings across our border.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
My values have not changed.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
Okay, you are hearing that for the first time along
with me. That is from CNN, which the only reason
my monitor here in the control room was on CNN
is because Fox News has been frozen at our station
on Gutfeld. And while I love Greg Gutfeld's face, he's
an amazing man, we are not able to watch Fox News.
(01:49):
So it just so happened that as I sat down,
CNN was on and they were giving us that clip
from the exclusive interview. It's already been done, it's going
to be edited. But what did we just hear? I
don't know. I turned my lonely eyes and ears to Kelly.
Could schera, Kelly, what did you just here?
Speaker 6 (02:10):
I have no idea?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Well, seriously, a lot of nonsense. Our values. Her values
have not changed.
Speaker 5 (02:20):
No, so have policy positions changed or evolved?
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Of course?
Speaker 7 (02:25):
Well, no, She's flip flopped on pretty much everything. She
has adopted Trump's stances on a bunch of stuff, including
the border wall, including no taxing on tips, and including
many other stances that she the child tax, crowd tax,
creditch jd Vance. Yes, yes, So there's a lot of
(02:51):
stuff that's really wrong with this interview that's going to suck.
Speaker 5 (02:56):
Well, what did you think of Dana bash in the
way she asked that question.
Speaker 7 (03:00):
Well, it couldn't have been any more of like, I'm
going to lead you into this question.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
It was very gentle and you are.
Speaker 7 (03:09):
Going to answer it in the appropriate it.
Speaker 5 (03:11):
Is because of your experience. It was almost like who's
that report? Jeff Zeleny for CNN when he when he
asked that question at Obama when President Obama's first press
Oh god, are you thrilled? Are you enlightened? Are you overjoyed?
Are you like?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I gotta find that question?
Speaker 7 (03:28):
It was it was like what has bewitched you?
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Something like that? Was it bewitched? I think it was?
My god, what.
Speaker 7 (03:39):
Has bewitched you about this experience?
Speaker 5 (03:41):
Even old Obama, I remember, was embarrassed by that question, said, Wow,
I gotta find that clip. And I'm my own band here,
so you gotta give me the next break people, But
I'm gonna find it and you're gonna hear it. But
what I gleaned and what you couldn't observe that I
just saw there's a few things, And unlike Dan Kaplis,
I'm gonna be mean because I'm gonna be honest and
(04:02):
if the truth hurts, well, that's the truth. The lighting
was not great. You didn't see this either, Kelly. You
only heard it Kamala. You can see there's stress age
lines on her face. I'm not saying this to be
pejorative or in the fact that she's female or whatever.
It just this is what it looks like. It wasn't
(04:24):
her best light. And I mean that literally about the
lighting or makeup whatever the other thing that was more
concerning to me about they call it in theater.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
And Kelly will know.
Speaker 5 (04:34):
This stage blocking, like how our actors blocked on stage,
or how do you present people to the viewers from
a stage. They've got Kamala kind of slouched in the middle,
and Tim Walls is anchored on the end of this
table and Dana bash is on the right side of
(04:55):
the table. Tim Walls is left Kamala's middle, and she
does not look prominent. And i know you're gonna think
I'm just paralysis by analysis here, but I'm telling you
optics visuals matter, especially in your first televised interview, and
you had to have your emotional support. Animal Tim Walls
right there next to you. He looks taller, more robust,
(05:17):
more prominent in the foreground on the left, And again
Kamala's in the middle like she's waiting for traffic court,
which I was just at not that long ago. She
doesn't look authoritative. I'm just telling you you can judge
for yourself. I'm giving you my opinion what I just
saw and when I just heard. Keep in mind all
(05:37):
of Kamala's policy positions. One, there's no way she can
reverse all of them credibly. Two, even if she did,
she's abandoning her base and that's going to be a problem.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Three.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
If you look at the literal things that she said,
you have to believe that she meant them at the
time that she said them.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Was she lying then or was she lying now?
Speaker 5 (05:56):
But what I can tell you about then, she wanted
carbon free emissions, meaning all electric cars on the grid
by twenty thirty.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
We're in twenty twenty four.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
In what universe is it possible that we could all
merge over to all electric vehicles by twenty thirty. Now,
it wasn't that long ago that she said that that
she held that position I'm going to say it was
mid twenty tens, so it was twenty fifteen to twenty nineteen.
Somewhere in there, somewhere in there an all ev fleet
(06:33):
of vehicles, of trucks of home transportation by twenty thirty.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
This is all about how you perceive things.
Speaker 5 (06:43):
In terms of the market, what controls it, what drives in?
Do consumers drive the market the way that we feel
as pro capitalists on our side, or will the government
try to dictate the market and tell people what they're
going to do and force them into electric cars that
they can't afford or they can't reliably charge. This would
(07:07):
set up for disaster. Now, I don't know, she's getting
real wishy washy. Of the goals remain the same, Climate
change is real, et cetera. About what year, I don't know.
She did say a year at one time. What I
don't know, and what I cannot tell you is whether
or not that sounded just be the way it was framed.
What you heard that a lot of the interview had
already been conducted to that point, and this was later
(07:30):
on in the interview by Dana bash So in a sense,
it's almost like she finally got around to you know,
why did all your positions change? And Kelly's so right,
like the very convoluted way that Dana Bash tried to
serve that up on a platter a very conveniently. It
(07:51):
was not a hard hitting, direct fastball, like what do
you got?
Speaker 2 (07:56):
It was leading her down this.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
Path of I'm gonna really least toss this to you underhanded,
very gently. If it's not a t for t ball,
it's coaches pitch. That's the next level up in youth
baseball or softball. And that's what it felt like, an
underhand softball toss. So really want to get your thoughts
on what you heard there. Five seven seven three nine.
(08:19):
That's a preview of the interview tonight Kamala Harris with
Dana Bash and CNN, and kind of a preview of
coming attractions. I guess with regard to what I just described,
which is the visuals of all of this, and I
guess since we're already here, I want to go to
(08:39):
Joe Rogan did a sit down interview with Mike Baker,
who you might recognize. He's on Gutfeld sometimes he used
to work I think for the CIA. He does a
daily podcast listen to the presidential brief something like that.
And I found this to be interesting their exchange here.
He's still president.
Speaker 8 (08:58):
I guess he's kind of not he's kind of quit.
Who is in charge? That's the question. I think a
lot of people will want to, Well.
Speaker 9 (09:05):
Kama's on tour, so she can't be but she's out
there and doing concerts.
Speaker 8 (09:10):
Oh, she's got to do an interview tomorrow night with
Tim though with Tim, with Tim because she's a strong woman,
so she wants a strong man.
Speaker 9 (09:17):
She does not want to be alone out there, which
is wild.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
You have to be alone.
Speaker 9 (09:22):
Who has ever done an interview the only interview since
they have been nominated by their party, right since they've
been chosen.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Who has ever not done an interview for this long?
Speaker 5 (09:34):
It's a very good question and what I'm hoping for,
and I think we'll get there between now and November five.
Joe Rogan has come a long way. He's not all
the way there yet. Red pilled, you could say that
black pilled is another way to describe it. He's gone
through the cancel culture with regard to COVID, the conservatives
(09:55):
had his back. He mentioned that when I saw him
here live at the Buellu Theater in Denver and the
horse Pace mixed myth of ivermectin, which was prescribed to
him by a doctor, which, by the way, would be
revealed later on. There are benefits for humans and specific
dosages in treating a disease like COVID, but none of
(10:19):
that mattered because Rogan was already canceled and dismissed.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
He'll never forget that, nor should he now.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
There was a little bit of a dust up recently
where Joe Rogan was expressing some admiration for RFK Junior.
This is before RFK Junior dropped out of the race
and Donald Trump reacted. I wonder how much he's gonna
get booed at the next UFC.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
He's not a Trump guy.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
But now that RFK has dropped out endorsed Trump, I
think it's just a matter of time and circumstance. Before
you know, Rogan might He's already tipped his hand. In
my opinion, he might as well go all the way here.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
He said.
Speaker 5 (10:53):
Now, I'm not political. I'm an idiot. I do a podcast.
It's just for fun. He does his stand up stuff.
He does the UFC announcing. Don't come to me as
an expert on politics. But Joe Rogan's got to be
smarter than that, I think, wiser than that to know
that his voice matters. I mean what he is the
number one podcast in America by a long shot. People
(11:17):
listen to him, people who are not necessarily political, and
people who wouldn't necessarily vote for Trump. But if he
were to just express his opinion that matters. That has
a lot of influence and impact, whether he wants it
to or not.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
It's like who.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Says this, Ben Shapiro says this about John Stewart. It's
the clown knows on, clown knows off. And if you're
familiar with this analysis, this goes back over twenty years originally,
and I liked John Stewart.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
I still do to a degree.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
But he's a person I think you never really understood
his influence or why he had influence, or what that
influence meant because he would sit there on a show
and give some pretty insightful, inciseful, incisive commentary on politics,
and he would rip both sides. I wouldn't say equally,
(12:08):
but when he saw something that needed to be called out,
he'd do it.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
He's done it recently, with the DNC.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
You might have seen some of his commentary from that,
but he'd get serious and he would want to be
taken seriously. In my view, I don't know otherwise why
he would whack serious on his show, having aside talk
to the audience and want to make legitimate points.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
That's fine.
Speaker 5 (12:31):
But then when he was confronted on this, I like, well,
we'll wait, wait a minute, John, because he went on
Crossfire and he basically ended that show. Crossfire was a
long standing tradition at CNN. Tucker Carlson at the time
was on it. They had some pundit's guests on the left.
Robert Novak was another conservative who was frequent on that
as a kind of a co anchor. They had one
(12:53):
from the left, one from the right, Crossfire. They would
argue topics, they'd have guests. One of those guests was
John Stewart, and he just eviscerated everything to do with
the show.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Says, you are what's wrong with this country.
Speaker 5 (13:06):
Well, what he didn't know and maybe didn't take into account,
is what it would become after that in the aftermath.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Was Crossfire a perfect no.
Speaker 5 (13:13):
But what you don't see anymore is a show like crossfire,
where there are competing views, where there's actual debate. Even
on Fox News, when I watch it, you're going to
see a lot of reinforcement, confirmation bias from panelists who
all agree with one another. And to be fair, I
don't know that that's entirely interesting either. It gives you
(13:34):
some comfort food kind of feeling. That's my view, And
then I turn over to CNN and they might have
Scott Jennings on, but that's it, and everybody else is
a liberal pundit or panelist. How does that advance the conversation?
How does that make you have to prove your point
or win a debate? So Stewart goes on, and when
(13:56):
Tucker Carlson retorted to John Stewart, you know you make points,
you're trying to be she.
Speaker 10 (14:00):
Goes I'm following a show of puppets making prank phone
calls crank yankors, which is true, but that was what
Ben Shapiro refers to his clown nose on like, oh no, no, I'm.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
A clown, ha ha ha. I'm the court jester. I
just make people laugh. I'm a comedian. I'm not really serious.
Speaker 5 (14:18):
But then he takes the clown nose off, and he's like, wait,
wait a minute, I got a brain too.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
I'm not just the scarecrow over here. I've got points
to Well, which one is it? John?
Speaker 5 (14:26):
You got to pick one and go with it, or
you can be both. But then you have to acknowledge it.
You can't just hide behind the fact that you're a comedian,
you're a clown. No, you make some civil you participate
in the civil discourse. You have a voice, and it matters.
And I think Joe Rogan is in that same lane.
I think a person who understands his role although he's
a comedian, is Dave Chappelle. And Chappelle will get serious
(14:49):
and he'll talk to his audience like adults and he's
not one of us, but he lives among people like us.
And this is where Dave Chappelle, I think is unique.
He lives in rural Ohio. It's where he grew up.
There's a lot of different people in his community, but
there are a lot of Trump supporters. And his Saturday
Night Live opening monologue a few years ago, I think
really caught some people off guard because they thought he
(15:11):
was just going to start tearing into Trump. But he says,
I understand it. I understand why people support Trump. And
then he gave an example of why he understood Trump
because he cited the debate between Donald Trump and Hillary
Clinton where Clinton started talking about the elite class and
the tax breaks for the rich.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Et cetera, and Donald Trump just called around, Yeah, you
take him to and so do I and she feels like, damn,
that guy's being honest with us.
Speaker 5 (15:41):
It's a fascinating bit if you haven't seen it, and
it rings true. So the influence here of Joe Rogan
cannot be understated. In my hope that I'm kind of
leading back to here is that he I think it's
Rogan that's holding this up.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
But you've seen Donald Trump.
Speaker 5 (15:57):
Go on all these different podcasts, THEO on Young People.
There's word that Baron Trump is helping navigate him through that, like, oh, so, Baron,
what are the hot podcasts?
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Where should I go?
Speaker 5 (16:08):
And then Baron's like, well, Dad, you know, I listened
to this one and this one, and that's smart. And
Baron seems like a really smart young man as well.
But for Donald Trump to sit down on the Joe
Rogan experience, that's the next step that's knocking the ball
out of the yard. And I think where Rogan hesitates
is that he doesn't want to be seen as kind
of taking sides. But he's been pretty upfront with his
(16:31):
political views in the past. About at one time, think
about this, this guy was a Bernie bro Joe Rogan,
and he has evolved over these last several years since COVID,
and I think his eyes have been open much the
same way that we saw from Elon Musk, even from RFK.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Junior, from Telsey Gabbard.
Speaker 5 (16:48):
What we're trying to do, folks, is build this broad coalition.
And Joe Rogan might not agree with conservatives on everything,
but on the main things, on the important.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Things, I believe that he does.
Speaker 5 (17:00):
I think he comes across mainly as libertarian if I
had to put a label on it, although I don't
know that you can really label Joe Rogan in that way.
But Joe Rogan's fear to me is that he would
do a sit down with Trump, that opportunity would be extended,
and the invite would be sent to Kamala Harris, but
she would.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Never ever do it? Are you kidding me?
Speaker 5 (17:20):
Can you imagine even if she had her emotional support
animal Tim walls next to her. Can you imagine her
enduring the Joe Rogan experience for three hours, for one hour,
for thirty minutes, for ten minutes. I can't, I can't,
and it won't happen. And just based on that little
(17:41):
sliver that we heard Kamala Harris sitting down with Dana Bash,
you could see it in her eyes, folks, she is
not ready for this. She was spinning, she was doing
her typical words, salad, garbage, lots of words signifying nothing.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Here's Mike Baker with a little bit more. I get
why because they get away with it.
Speaker 8 (18:02):
Look, they got a very compliant and curious media for
the most part, right, and they're just letting you compliant.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
It's more than complying. I'm trying to. I'm trying to. Yeah,
you're trying to be nice. I'm trying to be nice, complicit. Yeah,
and so.
Speaker 8 (18:15):
And it's on CNN and it's taped, he's not even
a live and it's the two of them, and there
is no way in hell. Maybe I'm gonna be wrong.
I hope I'm wrong. I hope it's a hard hitting interview,
and doubt that's gonna happen. But you can hear it
in Joe Rogan's voice. He's almost all the way there.
(18:37):
You can't pull these people necessarily. Kelly likes to say,
you can lead a horse to water, you can't make
it drink.
Speaker 5 (18:43):
I think Joe Rogan's right at the water. I think
he knows what the right thing is to do for him.
I'm not telling him to do it for any other reason,
but if he's honest with his conscience and where he's
at politically right now, the Overton window has passed him
by for the left to the left of more of
this when we come back to say, and I've lived
(19:08):
enough to know that help has arrived in the form
of Frank durand the real estate man.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
He joins us live as he does each and every Thursday. Here.
Speaker 5 (19:15):
He can find out more online at Frank Durant Holmes
dot com. Back with you, Ryan Shuling on six thirty
k how Frank, welcome back.
Speaker 11 (19:23):
Hey Frian, Hey, Happy day before Friday and the holiday weekend. Man.
Speaker 5 (19:27):
Absolutely looking forward to that long weekend and looking forward
to hearing more tips from you, Frank about people and
what they get when they're looking for a real estate
agent like yourself. They find you online. We've walked them
through the process. You're going to be involved every step
of the way. But one of the things they might
experience elsewhere that they're not going to get with you.
And this is an upsell is no gimmicks, no fluff.
(19:48):
You know, what you see is what you get. Why
is that important?
Speaker 11 (19:51):
Well, friend, I'll tell you. When I was a little kid,
my mom took me to the old Cinderella Mall, the
old Cinderella City Mall, and there used to be this
magic store in there, Ryan, And I'll tell you, I
was mesmerized. I was eight years old. And the gentleman
behind the counter that was selling the tricks, he pulled
off this really neat trick where he took a spongeball
read spongeball, two spongeballs. He puts one in my hand,
one in his hand, and somehow, when I reopened my hand,
(20:14):
I suddenly have two balls. He has none. And I
was mesmerized. My friend, I'll tell you, I begged my mom, mom,
please buy me this trick, and she bought it for me. Now,
I was so excited, but then once I learned how
the trick was done, I was disappointed because you know
what it wasn't as everything. What's that saying, not everything
that glitters his gold? It wasn't as seen. So that's
the way I look at gimmicks. Okay, bottom line is
(20:36):
always going to shoot straight with you. We had a gentleman.
We helped Brian where he was his home was expired
with another agent. He interviewed myself and two other brokers.
Two of those other brokers were giving him the gimmick saying, hey,
you know, we're gonna do this for you and that
for you, and if we can't sell the home, we'll
give you cash, we'll buy it in these kind of things.
And thank god, he put my stats side by side
with them and realized, hey, Frank can get this done.
(20:56):
He put us to work for him. We not only
sold his home for a lot more than he expected.
At the closing table, he was a very happy camper.
But Ryan upfront, we had his home professionally stage and cleaned,
and we give him a written performance guarantee. He could
have canceled any time for any reason. He would have
owed us zero. So we worked to earn his business
and no gimmicks or fluff.
Speaker 5 (21:13):
You know, you tell that story, Frank, It reminds me
of one of my favorite gifts I ever got from
my mom when I was a little kid was a
Harry Blackstone Junior Magic Kit And like you like, I'm
trying to do all these tricks, and once you figure
it out, I was like, wait a minute, that wasn't
that big of a deal.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
But there is a.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
Certain magic in what you do and what the service
that you provide and the team that you offer to
people out there in buying or selling a home. How
would you describe or define the magic that you're able
to give them.
Speaker 11 (21:41):
I'll tell you when it comes down to my front.
And this is just me. This is my opinion is
having a servant's heart. And my grandfather used to tell me,
he who is faithful and a very little thing is
very faithful and much And that's how I approach it
every day. In fact, I have that written on my
wall every day. That's what I look at every day.
There's a number of things I have in my wall. Ryan,
that's one of them. I read that every day. And
I'll tell you what, Man, I would not do this
(22:02):
if I didn't love people, love doing.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
What I do.
Speaker 5 (22:04):
He's got that drive and he's gonna get it done
for you, going into this Labor Day holiday, like he said,
knowing the real estate market, anticipating the changes that are coming,
including a potential federal rate cut, and he's gonna get
you across that corner and over the finish line. Frank
Durant Holmes dot com is where you can find out more. Frank,
thank you was always for your time. Enjoy this holiday weekend.
Speaker 11 (22:26):
Thank you friend, God bless and joy.
Speaker 5 (22:27):
That's right, Frank Durant Holmes dot com for Frank durand
the real estate man. And when you talk to him,
tell him Ryan sent you.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Yeah, that's how it went for Kamala Harris. Apparently.
Speaker 5 (22:39):
Now this is already in the books. This is already
over and done with. This is already edited and got
some text along those lines five seven, seven, three nine,
start those Ryan, if you would.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Please this one says Ryan, What does your gut tell you?
Speaker 5 (22:54):
When the CNN interview was actually held, well, as far
as we know, it was earlier today. My guests would
be somewhere around midday Eastern time, so like noon, they
conducted it, to my knowledge, in Atlanta. We're seeing in
his headquartered and then they're in the midst of a
bus tour Harrison Walls, and of course she had a
very strange and bizarre interaction with school children yesterday in
(23:18):
which she spoke to them. Here's the thing, She's a stepmom,
and I don't want to denegrate to that at all.
I think stepparents are some of the biggest blessings that
children can have that are unfortunately products of divorce. But
you get the sense like she's never spoken to kids before,
you know what I mean, Like I've been a camp counselor,
I've been a teacher, I've been an uncle.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
I've dealt with kids my entire life.
Speaker 5 (23:40):
And one of the things I remember about being a kid,
I think this is where empathy comes in. I distinctly
remember being ten and how people would talk to me.
Adults would talk to me, and there were some the
whole pad on the head condescending tone like na, you
don't want any of that. And then there were adults
that were cool, you know, and they to bring you in,
(24:00):
they have a conversation with you and treat you like
a little adult. She's incapable of the latter. She infantalizes
her audience when they are children now I'm talking like
high school kids, which is weird, very weird to borrow
their word and just doesn't really know how to communicate
socially awkward, is to put it mildly. I think this
(24:21):
is my I'm not a doctor, but I've seen people
with social anxiety disorders.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
I think she's terrified and I don't know. It's a real.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
Interesting juxtaposition, contradiction, irony that Kamala Harris is in this
field at all, of politics, of public facing job something
like that just got word too, and you know, got
a double and triple source.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
This, but that she never worked at McDonald's.
Speaker 5 (24:49):
McDonald's has no record of a Kamala Harris ever working
for their corporation.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
That's been reported today.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
This has also been reported And thanks to Alexa for
sending it to me, because she sends this text, along
with the fact that CNN won't release the transcript, speaks volume. Seriously,
only eighteen minutes. That is pathetic. My dog could last
for an hour interview.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Oh remember Dan's dog Reggie. He could do it now
and he's dead.
Speaker 5 (25:15):
She is incapable of being president, says Alexa. Well, that
comes from this post on X from a muse this
is a good follow on x if you're on that
platform formerly known as Twitter at amuse amus and it
says as follows interview it did not go well. Truncated
to eighteen minutes, will not release transcript. CNN will air
(25:37):
a shortened version tonight at eight pm Central Time nine
pm Eastern, seven pm here.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
In the Mountain time zone.
Speaker 5 (25:44):
To fill the time, CNN may run an inspirational video
about Kamala Harris and Tim Walls.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
What is this birth of a nation? You can't just
go full on propaganda.
Speaker 5 (25:55):
Oh again, this is bad, folks, that this is really
how this played out, that they could only get eighteen
usable minutes on air with the two of them. My lord,
does this even count as an interview? I asked that
question straight up. Eighteen minutes? Donald Trump just did what
(26:20):
an hour and a half with doctor Phil I'm one
of many interviews that he's done that he's granted to
friendlies and unfriendlies alike. I think in a way, Donald
Trump almost enjoys to sit down interview more with like
a Leslie Stall or a Caitlin Collins. And we'll get
into that with Steven L. Miller, Red Steez in hour
number two, the combative nature of it. He was born
(26:43):
for that, right, He's a pugilist. He doesn't shy away.
If this is true, eighteen minutes.
Speaker 7 (26:54):
You're missing an adverb. Go ahead, eighteen edited minutes.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
M that's an adjective.
Speaker 7 (27:03):
Okay, we'll give that.
Speaker 5 (27:07):
The only reason I know that is because most adverts
have l like slowly can give you.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
I'm just one of those basics. Right, we'll call it
at shift. But still no.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
But what I'm saying is this makes me I don't
give a flying blank. What I'm saying is the debate
is going to be a debacle. Yes, just change that
word inswert a couple of different letters. She can't get
through it. I have doubts that she'll even attempt it
if she can't go eighteen minutes with Dana Bash on CNA.
(27:40):
You heard the softball questioned that was given to her.
She can't handle that. How can she handle anything else?
When it comes to a crisis in the United States,
a natural disaster, impending war, a nuclear stand down with
Vladimir Putin, trade war with China, and Jijienping. How can
(28:03):
anybody with the brain out there? I'm serious, right, Now,
you might hate Donald Trump.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
You might loathe him. I grant that.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
I grant there are things about him that rub people
the wrong way and they just hate. How can you
still go through with this and go you know what?
I still want the incompetent lady. I want World War three.
I want taxes through the roof. I want an economy
and collapse. I want a wide open border. I want
migrant crime everywhere. That's okay because abortion and I hate Trump.
(28:32):
What other reasons are there? She has no qualifications, capabilities, achievements, accomplishments,
anything that lines her up to be ready for this task.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
I don't say that lightly. While I despise.
Speaker 5 (28:47):
Her personally, Hillary Clinton was eminently more qualified and intellectually
capable to do the job of president. I would have
hated it. I'm glad she lost. But my god, people,
if I'm going to answer honestly, Ryan, you got to
pick one, Hillary Clinton's president or Kamala Harris. It's Hillary
(29:07):
in a heartbeat, just because of that factor alone, that
she's a capable, competent, intelligent human being. I don't think
Kamala Harris is any of those things. Five seven, seven,
three nine will take this break when we come back.
A very special edition of Deep Thoughts on six thirty.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
Km and now Deep Thoughts by Vice President Kamala Harris.
Speaker 6 (29:38):
Sit back my bibes last night refly zero nine am.
And I'm gonna beg as a kind by I must
(30:06):
think so much. I miss my wife lonely out speaks
on such a time and I am Bess White. There's
(30:34):
nothink it's gonna be a last long time to touch down,
breaks me around.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
To get too fun.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
I'm talking a man. I think I am man of
my fucking man. That space is exciting.
Speaker 12 (31:03):
It spurs our imaginations and it forces us to ask
big questions. Space it affects us all.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
And it connects us all.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
I am so excited to be with you all as
Vice President, as the head of the Space Council, and
as an American who is a space third I'm so
thrilled to be with each one of you.
Speaker 8 (31:29):
And thank you for your.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Excellence, thank you for your service. How you guys doing.
Speaker 7 (31:34):
And I just love the idea of exploring the unknown.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
And then there's other things that we just haven't figured
out our.
Speaker 6 (31:41):
Discoverage yet to think about.
Speaker 12 (31:43):
So much that's out there that we still have to learn.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
I love that. I love that.
Speaker 12 (31:49):
So I'm very excited about the Space Council. We're going
to learn so much as we, increasingly, I think, are
curious and interested in the potential for the discoveries and
the work we can join space. So that's one of
the things I'm most excited about. The other you guys
are gonna see. You're gonna literally see the crators on
(32:12):
the mean with your own eye, with your own eye,
I'm telling you, it is going to be unbelievable.
Speaker 5 (32:20):
What's unbelievable is how ridiculous this person is. I don't
even have to give you my color commentary to fill
in the blanks. All I need to do every single
day between now an election day is play you one
of those. And I had to work in my favorite
Elton John song, Rocketman, which I hope you appreciated. It
(32:42):
was on topic the way she talks about space, and
in order I want to explain what you heard there
the first comments, she was speaking to cadets members of
Space Force in a very similar tone that you heard
on the tail end of that. In the third clip
of those deep Thoughts, she was speaking two school children.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
They'very young school.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Children about space and with your own eyes, you're gonna
see the.
Speaker 5 (33:12):
Creators on the moon. It's like the acid trips my
father described for me when he used to take LSD,
which he's very open and honest about. But I imagine
if I knew my father back then and he was
in the midst of said trip, he might sound a
(33:32):
little bit like fat.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Right, dude, Oh, don't take the brown acid. Man, I'm
up here. I think I could fly, man, I think
I can do it. Dad, you can't fly. I can
do it, man.
Speaker 5 (33:49):
There are similarities between my father and I, and to
borrow one of the favorite things of Kamala Harris aven diagram,
there's a lot of overlap of my father and me,
but one of them is not experimentation with psychedelic drugs,
which he seemed to really enjoy it.
Speaker 7 (34:03):
One time, your dad gave you the best gift ever.
Speaker 5 (34:06):
Well, we think this is the theory talking about this
on the air, Yes.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
Am I going to do this? Okay, so brief story.
I don't have a lot of time here. But so
my dad, he gave you a gift. I think he
gave me immunity community And let me explain real.
Speaker 5 (34:21):
Quickly because he did a lot of drugs, a lot
of drugs in the sixties.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
He's a boomer, right, he was a hippie. He's like, hey, man,
free love drugs, roll love your mom man.
Speaker 5 (34:32):
I think he had to be talked into me as
a Christmas present, because when you do the math. Christmas
nineteen seventy three, my birthday September twenty sixth. Hello, And
what happened was I was visiting my buddy Hutch in
Tampa a couple of years ago, and he had some
psychedelic mushrooms. He took some and he was tripping balls,
and I took some, and then I took some more,
(34:55):
and I ate a little bit more, and I ate
maybe a half pound of them. Nothing happened to the
point where Hutch was so concerned he called Kelly to
tell her about my experience.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
I never felt a thing.
Speaker 5 (35:10):
Take from that what you will, but I think my
dad gave me mushroom immunity.
How should voters look at some of the changes that
you've made that you've explained some.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Of here in your policy.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Is it because you have more experience now and you've
learned more about the information, it because you were running
for president in a Democratic primary? And should they feel
comfortable and confident that what you're saying now is going
to be your policy moving forward?
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Dan, I think the most important and most significant aspect
of my policy perspective and decisions is my values have
not changed. You mentioned the Green New Deal. I have
always believed, and I've worked on it, that the climate
crisis is real, that it is an urgent matter to
(00:45):
which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to
deadlines around time. We did that with the Inflation Reduction Act.
We have set goals for the United States of America
and by extension, the globe, around when we should meet
certain standards for reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. As an example,
that value has not changed. My value around what we
(01:08):
need to do to secure our border, that value has
not changed. I spent two terms as the Attorney General
of California prosecuting transnational criminal organization violations of American laws
regarding the passage, illegal passage of guns, drugs, and human
beings across our border.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
My values have not changed.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
Okay, you are hearing that for the first time along
with me. That is from CNN, which the only reason
my monitor here in the control room was on CNN
is because Fox News has been frozen at our station
on Gutfeld. And while I love Greg Gutfeld's face, he's
an amazing man, we are not able to watch Fox News.
(01:49):
So it just so happened that as I sat down,
CNN was on and they were giving us that clip
from the exclusive interview. It's already been done, it's going
to be edited. But what did we just hear? I
don't know. I turned my lonely eyes and ears to Kelly.
Could schera, Kelly, what did you just here?
Speaker 6 (02:10):
I have no idea?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Well, seriously, a lot of nonsense. Our values. Her values
have not changed.
Speaker 5 (02:20):
No, so have policy positions changed or evolved?
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Of course?
Speaker 7 (02:25):
Well, no, She's flip flopped on pretty much everything. She
has adopted Trump's stances on a bunch of stuff, including
the border wall, including no taxing on tips, and including
many other stances that she the child tax, crowd tax,
creditch jd Vance. Yes, yes, So there's a lot of
(02:51):
stuff that's really wrong with this interview that's going to suck.
Speaker 5 (02:56):
Well, what did you think of Dana bash in the
way she asked that question.
Speaker 7 (03:00):
Well, it couldn't have been any more of like, I'm
going to lead you into this question.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
It was very gentle and you are.
Speaker 7 (03:09):
Going to answer it in the appropriate it.
Speaker 5 (03:11):
Is because of your experience. It was almost like who's
that report? Jeff Zeleny for CNN when he when he
asked that question at Obama when President Obama's first press
Oh god, are you thrilled? Are you enlightened? Are you overjoyed?
Are you like?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I gotta find that question?
Speaker 7 (03:28):
It was it was like what has bewitched you?
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Something like that? Was it bewitched? I think it was?
My god, what.
Speaker 7 (03:39):
Has bewitched you about this experience?
Speaker 5 (03:41):
Even old Obama, I remember, was embarrassed by that question, said, Wow,
I gotta find that clip. And I'm my own band here,
so you gotta give me the next break people, But
I'm gonna find it and you're gonna hear it. But
what I gleaned and what you couldn't observe that I
just saw there's a few things, And unlike Dan Kaplis,
I'm gonna be mean because I'm gonna be honest and
(04:02):
if the truth hurts, well, that's the truth. The lighting
was not great. You didn't see this either, Kelly. You
only heard it Kamala. You can see there's stress age
lines on her face. I'm not saying this to be
pejorative or in the fact that she's female or whatever.
It just this is what it looks like. It wasn't
(04:24):
her best light. And I mean that literally about the
lighting or makeup whatever the other thing that was more
concerning to me about they call it in theater.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
And Kelly will know.
Speaker 5 (04:34):
This stage blocking, like how our actors blocked on stage,
or how do you present people to the viewers from
a stage. They've got Kamala kind of slouched in the middle,
and Tim Walls is anchored on the end of this
table and Dana bash is on the right side of
(04:55):
the table. Tim Walls is left Kamala's middle, and she
does not look prominent. And i know you're gonna think
I'm just paralysis by analysis here, but I'm telling you
optics visuals matter, especially in your first televised interview, and
you had to have your emotional support. Animal Tim Walls
right there next to you. He looks taller, more robust,
(05:17):
more prominent in the foreground on the left, And again
Kamala's in the middle like she's waiting for traffic court,
which I was just at not that long ago. She
doesn't look authoritative. I'm just telling you you can judge
for yourself. I'm giving you my opinion what I just
saw and when I just heard. Keep in mind all
(05:37):
of Kamala's policy positions. One, there's no way she can
reverse all of them credibly. Two, even if she did,
she's abandoning her base and that's going to be a problem.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Three.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
If you look at the literal things that she said,
you have to believe that she meant them at the
time that she said them.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Was she lying then or was she lying now?
Speaker 5 (05:56):
But what I can tell you about then, she wanted
carbon free emissions, meaning all electric cars on the grid
by twenty thirty.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
We're in twenty twenty four.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
In what universe is it possible that we could all
merge over to all electric vehicles by twenty thirty. Now,
it wasn't that long ago that she said that that
she held that position I'm going to say it was
mid twenty tens, so it was twenty fifteen to twenty nineteen.
Somewhere in there, somewhere in there an all ev fleet
(06:33):
of vehicles, of trucks of home transportation by twenty thirty.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
This is all about how you perceive things.
Speaker 5 (06:43):
In terms of the market, what controls it, what drives in?
Do consumers drive the market the way that we feel
as pro capitalists on our side, or will the government
try to dictate the market and tell people what they're
going to do and force them into electric cars that
they can't afford or they can't reliably charge. This would
(07:07):
set up for disaster. Now, I don't know, she's getting
real wishy washy. Of the goals remain the same, Climate
change is real, et cetera. About what year, I don't know.
She did say a year at one time. What I
don't know, and what I cannot tell you is whether
or not that sounded just be the way it was framed.
What you heard that a lot of the interview had
already been conducted to that point, and this was later
(07:30):
on in the interview by Dana bash So in a sense,
it's almost like she finally got around to you know,
why did all your positions change? And Kelly's so right,
like the very convoluted way that Dana Bash tried to
serve that up on a platter a very conveniently. It
(07:51):
was not a hard hitting, direct fastball, like what do
you got?
Speaker 2 (07:56):
It was leading her down this.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
Path of I'm gonna really least toss this to you underhanded,
very gently. If it's not a t for t ball,
it's coaches pitch. That's the next level up in youth
baseball or softball. And that's what it felt like, an
underhand softball toss. So really want to get your thoughts
on what you heard there. Five seven seven three nine.
(08:19):
That's a preview of the interview tonight Kamala Harris with
Dana Bash and CNN, and kind of a preview of
coming attractions. I guess with regard to what I just described,
which is the visuals of all of this, and I
guess since we're already here, I want to go to
(08:39):
Joe Rogan did a sit down interview with Mike Baker,
who you might recognize. He's on Gutfeld sometimes he used
to work I think for the CIA. He does a
daily podcast listen to the presidential brief something like that.
And I found this to be interesting their exchange here.
He's still president.
Speaker 8 (08:58):
I guess he's kind of not he's kind of quit.
Who is in charge? That's the question. I think a
lot of people will want to, Well.
Speaker 9 (09:05):
Kama's on tour, so she can't be but she's out
there and doing concerts.
Speaker 8 (09:10):
Oh, she's got to do an interview tomorrow night with
Tim though with Tim, with Tim because she's a strong woman,
so she wants a strong man.
Speaker 9 (09:17):
She does not want to be alone out there, which
is wild.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
You have to be alone.
Speaker 9 (09:22):
Who has ever done an interview the only interview since
they have been nominated by their party, right since they've
been chosen.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Who has ever not done an interview for this long?
Speaker 5 (09:34):
It's a very good question and what I'm hoping for,
and I think we'll get there between now and November five.
Joe Rogan has come a long way. He's not all
the way there yet. Red pilled, you could say that
black pilled is another way to describe it. He's gone
through the cancel culture with regard to COVID, the conservatives
(09:55):
had his back. He mentioned that when I saw him
here live at the Buellu Theater in Denver and the
horse Pace mixed myth of ivermectin, which was prescribed to
him by a doctor, which, by the way, would be
revealed later on. There are benefits for humans and specific
dosages in treating a disease like COVID, but none of
(10:19):
that mattered because Rogan was already canceled and dismissed.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
He'll never forget that, nor should he now.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
There was a little bit of a dust up recently
where Joe Rogan was expressing some admiration for RFK Junior.
This is before RFK Junior dropped out of the race
and Donald Trump reacted. I wonder how much he's gonna
get booed at the next UFC.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
He's not a Trump guy.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
But now that RFK has dropped out endorsed Trump, I
think it's just a matter of time and circumstance. Before
you know, Rogan might He's already tipped his hand. In
my opinion, he might as well go all the way here.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
He said.
Speaker 5 (10:53):
Now, I'm not political. I'm an idiot. I do a podcast.
It's just for fun. He does his stand up stuff.
He does the UFC announcing. Don't come to me as
an expert on politics. But Joe Rogan's got to be
smarter than that, I think, wiser than that to know
that his voice matters. I mean what he is the
number one podcast in America by a long shot. People
(11:17):
listen to him, people who are not necessarily political, and
people who wouldn't necessarily vote for Trump. But if he
were to just express his opinion that matters. That has
a lot of influence and impact, whether he wants it
to or not.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
It's like who.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Says this, Ben Shapiro says this about John Stewart. It's
the clown knows on, clown knows off. And if you're
familiar with this analysis, this goes back over twenty years originally,
and I liked John Stewart.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
I still do to a degree.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
But he's a person I think you never really understood
his influence or why he had influence, or what that
influence meant because he would sit there on a show
and give some pretty insightful, inciseful, incisive commentary on politics,
and he would rip both sides. I wouldn't say equally,
(12:08):
but when he saw something that needed to be called out,
he'd do it.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
He's done it recently, with the DNC.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
You might have seen some of his commentary from that,
but he'd get serious and he would want to be
taken seriously. In my view, I don't know otherwise why
he would whack serious on his show, having aside talk
to the audience and want to make legitimate points.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
That's fine.
Speaker 5 (12:31):
But then when he was confronted on this, I like, well,
we'll wait, wait a minute, John, because he went on
Crossfire and he basically ended that show. Crossfire was a
long standing tradition at CNN. Tucker Carlson at the time
was on it. They had some pundit's guests on the left.
Robert Novak was another conservative who was frequent on that
as a kind of a co anchor. They had one
(12:53):
from the left, one from the right, Crossfire. They would
argue topics, they'd have guests. One of those guests was
John Stewart, and he just eviscerated everything to do with
the show.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Says, you are what's wrong with this country.
Speaker 5 (13:06):
Well, what he didn't know and maybe didn't take into account,
is what it would become after that in the aftermath.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Was Crossfire a perfect no.
Speaker 5 (13:13):
But what you don't see anymore is a show like crossfire,
where there are competing views, where there's actual debate. Even
on Fox News, when I watch it, you're going to
see a lot of reinforcement, confirmation bias from panelists who
all agree with one another. And to be fair, I
don't know that that's entirely interesting either. It gives you
(13:34):
some comfort food kind of feeling. That's my view, And
then I turn over to CNN and they might have
Scott Jennings on, but that's it, and everybody else is
a liberal pundit or panelist. How does that advance the conversation?
How does that make you have to prove your point
or win a debate? So Stewart goes on, and when
(13:56):
Tucker Carlson retorted to John Stewart, you know you make points,
you're trying to be she.
Speaker 10 (14:00):
Goes I'm following a show of puppets making prank phone
calls crank yankors, which is true, but that was what
Ben Shapiro refers to his clown nose on like, oh no, no, I'm.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
A clown, ha ha ha. I'm the court jester. I
just make people laugh. I'm a comedian. I'm not really serious.
Speaker 5 (14:18):
But then he takes the clown nose off, and he's like, wait,
wait a minute, I got a brain too.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
I'm not just the scarecrow over here. I've got points
to Well, which one is it? John?
Speaker 5 (14:26):
You got to pick one and go with it, or
you can be both. But then you have to acknowledge it.
You can't just hide behind the fact that you're a comedian,
you're a clown. No, you make some civil you participate
in the civil discourse. You have a voice, and it matters.
And I think Joe Rogan is in that same lane.
I think a person who understands his role although he's
a comedian, is Dave Chappelle. And Chappelle will get serious
(14:49):
and he'll talk to his audience like adults and he's
not one of us, but he lives among people like us.
And this is where Dave Chappelle, I think is unique.
He lives in rural Ohio. It's where he grew up.
There's a lot of different people in his community, but
there are a lot of Trump supporters. And his Saturday
Night Live opening monologue a few years ago, I think
really caught some people off guard because they thought he
(15:11):
was just going to start tearing into Trump. But he says,
I understand it. I understand why people support Trump. And
then he gave an example of why he understood Trump
because he cited the debate between Donald Trump and Hillary
Clinton where Clinton started talking about the elite class and
the tax breaks for the rich.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Et cetera, and Donald Trump just called around, Yeah, you
take him to and so do I and she feels like, damn,
that guy's being honest with us.
Speaker 5 (15:41):
It's a fascinating bit if you haven't seen it, and
it rings true. So the influence here of Joe Rogan
cannot be understated. In my hope that I'm kind of
leading back to here is that he I think it's
Rogan that's holding this up.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
But you've seen Donald Trump.
Speaker 5 (15:57):
Go on all these different podcasts, THEO on Young People.
There's word that Baron Trump is helping navigate him through that, like, oh, so, Baron,
what are the hot podcasts?
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Where should I go?
Speaker 5 (16:08):
And then Baron's like, well, Dad, you know, I listened
to this one and this one, and that's smart. And
Baron seems like a really smart young man as well.
But for Donald Trump to sit down on the Joe
Rogan experience, that's the next step that's knocking the ball
out of the yard. And I think where Rogan hesitates
is that he doesn't want to be seen as kind
of taking sides. But he's been pretty upfront with his
(16:31):
political views in the past. About at one time, think
about this, this guy was a Bernie bro Joe Rogan,
and he has evolved over these last several years since COVID,
and I think his eyes have been open much the
same way that we saw from Elon Musk, even from RFK.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Junior, from Telsey Gabbard.
Speaker 5 (16:48):
What we're trying to do, folks, is build this broad coalition.
And Joe Rogan might not agree with conservatives on everything,
but on the main things, on the important.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Things, I believe that he does.
Speaker 5 (17:00):
I think he comes across mainly as libertarian if I
had to put a label on it, although I don't
know that you can really label Joe Rogan in that way.
But Joe Rogan's fear to me is that he would
do a sit down with Trump, that opportunity would be extended,
and the invite would be sent to Kamala Harris, but
she would.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Never ever do it? Are you kidding me?
Speaker 5 (17:20):
Can you imagine even if she had her emotional support
animal Tim walls next to her. Can you imagine her
enduring the Joe Rogan experience for three hours, for one hour,
for thirty minutes, for ten minutes. I can't, I can't,
and it won't happen. And just based on that little
(17:41):
sliver that we heard Kamala Harris sitting down with Dana Bash,
you could see it in her eyes, folks, she is
not ready for this. She was spinning, she was doing
her typical words, salad, garbage, lots of words signifying nothing.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Here's Mike Baker with a little bit more. I get
why because they get away with it.
Speaker 8 (18:02):
Look, they got a very compliant and curious media for
the most part, right, and they're just letting you compliant.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
It's more than complying. I'm trying to. I'm trying to. Yeah,
you're trying to be nice. I'm trying to be nice, complicit. Yeah,
and so.
Speaker 8 (18:15):
And it's on CNN and it's taped, he's not even
a live and it's the two of them, and there
is no way in hell. Maybe I'm gonna be wrong.
I hope I'm wrong. I hope it's a hard hitting interview,
and doubt that's gonna happen. But you can hear it
in Joe Rogan's voice. He's almost all the way there.
(18:37):
You can't pull these people necessarily. Kelly likes to say,
you can lead a horse to water, you can't make
it drink.
Speaker 5 (18:43):
I think Joe Rogan's right at the water. I think
he knows what the right thing is to do for him.
I'm not telling him to do it for any other reason,
but if he's honest with his conscience and where he's
at politically right now, the Overton window has passed him
by for the left to the left of more of
this when we come back to say, and I've lived
(19:08):
enough to know that help has arrived in the form
of Frank durand the real estate man.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
He joins us live as he does each and every Thursday. Here.
Speaker 5 (19:15):
He can find out more online at Frank Durant Holmes
dot com. Back with you, Ryan Shuling on six thirty
k how Frank, welcome back.
Speaker 11 (19:23):
Hey Frian, Hey, Happy day before Friday and the holiday weekend. Man.
Speaker 5 (19:27):
Absolutely looking forward to that long weekend and looking forward
to hearing more tips from you, Frank about people and
what they get when they're looking for a real estate
agent like yourself. They find you online. We've walked them
through the process. You're going to be involved every step
of the way. But one of the things they might
experience elsewhere that they're not going to get with you.
And this is an upsell is no gimmicks, no fluff.
(19:48):
You know, what you see is what you get. Why
is that important?
Speaker 11 (19:51):
Well, friend, I'll tell you. When I was a little kid,
my mom took me to the old Cinderella Mall, the
old Cinderella City Mall, and there used to be this
magic store in there, Ryan, And I'll tell you, I
was mesmerized. I was eight years old. And the gentleman
behind the counter that was selling the tricks, he pulled
off this really neat trick where he took a spongeball
read spongeball, two spongeballs. He puts one in my hand,
one in his hand, and somehow, when I reopened my hand,
(20:14):
I suddenly have two balls. He has none. And I
was mesmerized. My friend, I'll tell you, I begged my mom, mom,
please buy me this trick, and she bought it for me. Now,
I was so excited, but then once I learned how
the trick was done, I was disappointed because you know
what it wasn't as everything. What's that saying, not everything
that glitters his gold? It wasn't as seen. So that's
the way I look at gimmicks. Okay, bottom line is
(20:36):
always going to shoot straight with you. We had a gentleman.
We helped Brian where he was his home was expired
with another agent. He interviewed myself and two other brokers.
Two of those other brokers were giving him the gimmick saying, hey,
you know, we're gonna do this for you and that
for you, and if we can't sell the home, we'll
give you cash, we'll buy it in these kind of things.
And thank god, he put my stats side by side
with them and realized, hey, Frank can get this done.
(20:56):
He put us to work for him. We not only
sold his home for a lot more than he expected.
At the closing table, he was a very happy camper.
But Ryan upfront, we had his home professionally stage and cleaned,
and we give him a written performance guarantee. He could
have canceled any time for any reason. He would have
owed us zero. So we worked to earn his business
and no gimmicks or fluff.
Speaker 5 (21:13):
You know, you tell that story, Frank, It reminds me
of one of my favorite gifts I ever got from
my mom when I was a little kid was a
Harry Blackstone Junior Magic Kit And like you like, I'm
trying to do all these tricks, and once you figure
it out, I was like, wait a minute, that wasn't
that big of a deal.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
But there is a.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
Certain magic in what you do and what the service
that you provide and the team that you offer to
people out there in buying or selling a home. How
would you describe or define the magic that you're able
to give them.
Speaker 11 (21:41):
I'll tell you when it comes down to my front.
And this is just me. This is my opinion is
having a servant's heart. And my grandfather used to tell me,
he who is faithful and a very little thing is
very faithful and much And that's how I approach it
every day. In fact, I have that written on my
wall every day. That's what I look at every day.
There's a number of things I have in my wall. Ryan,
that's one of them. I read that every day. And
I'll tell you what, Man, I would not do this
(22:02):
if I didn't love people, love doing.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
What I do.
Speaker 5 (22:04):
He's got that drive and he's gonna get it done
for you, going into this Labor Day holiday, like he said,
knowing the real estate market, anticipating the changes that are coming,
including a potential federal rate cut, and he's gonna get
you across that corner and over the finish line. Frank
Durant Holmes dot com is where you can find out more. Frank,
thank you was always for your time. Enjoy this holiday weekend.
Speaker 11 (22:26):
Thank you friend, God bless and joy.
Speaker 5 (22:27):
That's right, Frank Durant Holmes dot com for Frank durand
the real estate man. And when you talk to him,
tell him Ryan sent you.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Yeah, that's how it went for Kamala Harris. Apparently.
Speaker 5 (22:39):
Now this is already in the books. This is already
over and done with. This is already edited and got
some text along those lines five seven, seven, three nine,
start those Ryan, if you would.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Please this one says Ryan, What does your gut tell you?
Speaker 5 (22:54):
When the CNN interview was actually held, well, as far
as we know, it was earlier today. My guests would
be somewhere around midday Eastern time, so like noon, they
conducted it, to my knowledge, in Atlanta. We're seeing in
his headquartered and then they're in the midst of a
bus tour Harrison Walls, and of course she had a
very strange and bizarre interaction with school children yesterday in
(23:18):
which she spoke to them. Here's the thing, She's a stepmom,
and I don't want to denegrate to that at all.
I think stepparents are some of the biggest blessings that
children can have that are unfortunately products of divorce. But
you get the sense like she's never spoken to kids before,
you know what I mean, Like I've been a camp counselor,
I've been a teacher, I've been an uncle.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
I've dealt with kids my entire life.
Speaker 5 (23:40):
And one of the things I remember about being a kid,
I think this is where empathy comes in. I distinctly
remember being ten and how people would talk to me.
Adults would talk to me, and there were some the
whole pad on the head condescending tone like na, you
don't want any of that. And then there were adults
that were cool, you know, and they to bring you in,
(24:00):
they have a conversation with you and treat you like
a little adult. She's incapable of the latter. She infantalizes
her audience when they are children now I'm talking like
high school kids, which is weird, very weird to borrow
their word and just doesn't really know how to communicate
socially awkward, is to put it mildly. I think this
(24:21):
is my I'm not a doctor, but I've seen people
with social anxiety disorders.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
I think she's terrified and I don't know. It's a real.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
Interesting juxtaposition, contradiction, irony that Kamala Harris is in this
field at all, of politics, of public facing job something
like that just got word too, and you know, got
a double and triple source.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
This, but that she never worked at McDonald's.
Speaker 5 (24:49):
McDonald's has no record of a Kamala Harris ever working
for their corporation.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
That's been reported today.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
This has also been reported And thanks to Alexa for
sending it to me, because she sends this text, along
with the fact that CNN won't release the transcript, speaks volume. Seriously,
only eighteen minutes. That is pathetic. My dog could last
for an hour interview.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Oh remember Dan's dog Reggie. He could do it now
and he's dead.
Speaker 5 (25:15):
She is incapable of being president, says Alexa. Well, that
comes from this post on X from a muse this
is a good follow on x if you're on that
platform formerly known as Twitter at amuse amus and it
says as follows interview it did not go well. Truncated
to eighteen minutes, will not release transcript. CNN will air
(25:37):
a shortened version tonight at eight pm Central Time nine
pm Eastern, seven pm here.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
In the Mountain time zone.
Speaker 5 (25:44):
To fill the time, CNN may run an inspirational video
about Kamala Harris and Tim Walls.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
What is this birth of a nation? You can't just
go full on propaganda.
Speaker 5 (25:55):
Oh again, this is bad, folks, that this is really
how this played out, that they could only get eighteen
usable minutes on air with the two of them. My lord,
does this even count as an interview? I asked that
question straight up. Eighteen minutes? Donald Trump just did what
(26:20):
an hour and a half with doctor Phil I'm one
of many interviews that he's done that he's granted to
friendlies and unfriendlies alike. I think in a way, Donald
Trump almost enjoys to sit down interview more with like
a Leslie Stall or a Caitlin Collins. And we'll get
into that with Steven L. Miller, Red Steez in hour
number two, the combative nature of it. He was born
(26:43):
for that, right, He's a pugilist. He doesn't shy away.
If this is true, eighteen minutes.
Speaker 7 (26:54):
You're missing an adverb. Go ahead, eighteen edited minutes.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
M that's an adjective.
Speaker 7 (27:03):
Okay, we'll give that.
Speaker 5 (27:07):
The only reason I know that is because most adverts
have l like slowly can give you.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
I'm just one of those basics. Right, we'll call it
at shift. But still no.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
But what I'm saying is this makes me I don't
give a flying blank. What I'm saying is the debate
is going to be a debacle. Yes, just change that
word inswert a couple of different letters. She can't get
through it. I have doubts that she'll even attempt it
if she can't go eighteen minutes with Dana Bash on CNA.
(27:40):
You heard the softball questioned that was given to her.
She can't handle that. How can she handle anything else?
When it comes to a crisis in the United States,
a natural disaster, impending war, a nuclear stand down with
Vladimir Putin, trade war with China, and Jijienping. How can
(28:03):
anybody with the brain out there? I'm serious, right, Now,
you might hate Donald Trump.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
You might loathe him. I grant that.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
I grant there are things about him that rub people
the wrong way and they just hate. How can you
still go through with this and go you know what?
I still want the incompetent lady. I want World War three.
I want taxes through the roof. I want an economy
and collapse. I want a wide open border. I want
migrant crime everywhere. That's okay because abortion and I hate Trump.
(28:32):
What other reasons are there? She has no qualifications, capabilities, achievements, accomplishments,
anything that lines her up to be ready for this task.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
I don't say that lightly. While I despise.
Speaker 5 (28:47):
Her personally, Hillary Clinton was eminently more qualified and intellectually
capable to do the job of president. I would have
hated it. I'm glad she lost. But my god, people,
if I'm going to answer honestly, Ryan, you got to
pick one, Hillary Clinton's president or Kamala Harris. It's Hillary
(29:07):
in a heartbeat, just because of that factor alone, that
she's a capable, competent, intelligent human being. I don't think
Kamala Harris is any of those things. Five seven, seven,
three nine will take this break when we come back.
A very special edition of Deep Thoughts on six thirty.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
Km and now Deep Thoughts by Vice President Kamala Harris.
Speaker 6 (29:38):
Sit back my bibes last night refly zero nine am.
And I'm gonna beg as a kind by I must
(30:06):
think so much. I miss my wife lonely out speaks
on such a time and I am Bess White. There's
(30:34):
nothink it's gonna be a last long time to touch down,
breaks me around.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
To get too fun.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
I'm talking a man. I think I am man of
my fucking man. That space is exciting.
Speaker 12 (31:03):
It spurs our imaginations and it forces us to ask
big questions. Space it affects us all.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
And it connects us all.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
I am so excited to be with you all as
Vice President, as the head of the Space Council, and
as an American who is a space third I'm so
thrilled to be with each one of you.
Speaker 8 (31:29):
And thank you for your.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Excellence, thank you for your service. How you guys doing.
Speaker 7 (31:34):
And I just love the idea of exploring the unknown.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
And then there's other things that we just haven't figured
out our.
Speaker 6 (31:41):
Discoverage yet to think about.
Speaker 12 (31:43):
So much that's out there that we still have to learn.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
I love that. I love that.
Speaker 12 (31:49):
So I'm very excited about the Space Council. We're going
to learn so much as we, increasingly, I think, are
curious and interested in the potential for the discoveries and
the work we can join space. So that's one of
the things I'm most excited about. The other you guys
are gonna see. You're gonna literally see the crators on
(32:12):
the mean with your own eye, with your own eye,
I'm telling you, it is going to be unbelievable.
Speaker 5 (32:20):
What's unbelievable is how ridiculous this person is. I don't
even have to give you my color commentary to fill
in the blanks. All I need to do every single
day between now an election day is play you one
of those. And I had to work in my favorite
Elton John song, Rocketman, which I hope you appreciated. It
(32:42):
was on topic the way she talks about space, and
in order I want to explain what you heard there
the first comments, she was speaking to cadets members of
Space Force in a very similar tone that you heard
on the tail end of that. In the third clip
of those deep Thoughts, she was speaking two school children.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
They'very young school.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Children about space and with your own eyes, you're gonna
see the.
Speaker 5 (33:12):
Creators on the moon. It's like the acid trips my
father described for me when he used to take LSD,
which he's very open and honest about. But I imagine
if I knew my father back then and he was
in the midst of said trip, he might sound a
(33:32):
little bit like fat.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Right, dude, Oh, don't take the brown acid. Man, I'm
up here. I think I could fly, man, I think
I can do it. Dad, you can't fly. I can
do it, man.
Speaker 5 (33:49):
There are similarities between my father and I, and to
borrow one of the favorite things of Kamala Harris aven diagram,
there's a lot of overlap of my father and me,
but one of them is not experimentation with psychedelic drugs,
which he seemed to really enjoy it.
Speaker 7 (34:03):
One time, your dad gave you the best gift ever.
Speaker 5 (34:06):
Well, we think this is the theory talking about this
on the air, Yes.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
Am I going to do this? Okay, so brief story.
I don't have a lot of time here. But so
my dad, he gave you a gift. I think he
gave me immunity community And let me explain real.
Speaker 5 (34:21):
Quickly because he did a lot of drugs, a lot
of drugs in the sixties.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
He's a boomer, right, he was a hippie. He's like, hey, man,
free love drugs, roll love your mom man.
Speaker 5 (34:32):
I think he had to be talked into me as
a Christmas present, because when you do the math. Christmas
nineteen seventy three, my birthday September twenty sixth. Hello, And
what happened was I was visiting my buddy Hutch in
Tampa a couple of years ago, and he had some
psychedelic mushrooms. He took some and he was tripping balls,
and I took some, and then I took some more,
(34:55):
and I ate a little bit more, and I ate
maybe a half pound of them. Nothing happened to the
point where Hutch was so concerned he called Kelly to
tell her about my experience.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
I never felt a thing.
Speaker 5 (35:10):
Take from that what you will, but I think my
dad gave me mushroom immunity.
