In what looks to be a sacrificial offering for the outraged parents of children in JeffCo Public Schools, the school board gave superintendent Tracy Dorland a vote of 'no confidence,' essentially ending her tenure in the post. Will this provide the necessary political cover for the board and district in the wake of numerous personnel scandals over the last calendar year?

Ryan muses at a Rockies event right in his wheelhouse - a 'Ryan Meetup' scheduled for Friday, June 20th designed to provide a 'safe space' from all fans named Ryan from being called 'Brian.'

Speaker 1 (00:00):
A Metro area school superintendent facing scrutiny from the teachers'
union during a meeting last time.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Gavitrean issuing a vote of no confidence and Superintendent Tracy
Dorland with jeff COO's Schools Or Carly Mori is on
and Live.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
With the latest. Kimry Curley, Hey, good morning guys.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Yeah, Superintendent Dorland has been in her possession since April
twenty twenty one. It was in last night's meeting where
the teachers' union issued that vote of no confidence, saying
that they're not confident in the direction that the district
is going.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Here's what you need to know.

Speaker 3 (00:32):
This morning they wrote a letter to the board, I
should say to the district Board of Directors on their website,
the Jefferson County Education Association Representative Council, and their operational board,
so that this step was necessary. The letter says that
under Superintendent Dorelyn's leadership, there's a disconnect between administration, education,
and families. It goes on to say her leadership has

(00:54):
exacerbated tensions and damaged the district's credibility. They outlined three
reasons for their vote. They say the disregard for shared leadership,
lack of transparency and accountability, and failure to address urgent
conditions in schools. Now, we did reach out to Superintendent
Dorelyn for her comments on this. I sent the email
super early this morning, so of course, as soon as

(01:14):
we hear back from her, I'll make sure to include
that Live and Jeff co Carly Moore Fox thirty one.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
She gone, Tracy Darlin bye bye and deserves it. Have
you been following what's happening in Jeff Gho's schools over
the last calendar year or so? This is an absolute disgrace.
That being said, Is Tracy Darlin simply being offered up
as a sacrifice. Well, this was a theory that was

(01:43):
brought to my attention. It concerns me, there's no doubt
about it. But I'll keep the names of my sources
confidential at the moment. Not that that will always be
the case, but I always want to make sure that
I protect these people. But one of them reached out
to me and said they are using her as a
scapegoat so they can go into the November election blaming

(02:03):
Dolan for everything. Wouldn't that be convenient? It was just
an only her fault. The thing is this is a
conspiracy of dunces, and that would be putting it kindly
because they all have agency and contributed to this, the
cover up being worse than the crime. Heard that time
and again, including yesterday with Jimmy Sangenberger talking about Joan Lopez,

(02:25):
Rapo County clerk, completely inept, completely in over her head.
But she's a lukewarm glass of water that will get votes.
That's Nancy Pelosi's analogy, because she's got a d an
extra her names Democrat. That there are fools out there.
I'm sorry that. Yeah, I don't care how liberal you are.
You're voting for this crap. You're voting Democrat. I'm done
with I'm done with the I love Dan Caplis, okay,

(02:47):
but I'm done with his whole. Oh there are good Democrats.
There aren't. If you vote for this, you vote for this,
you own it, you wear it. You've gotten it. There
is no escaping this. Now it's out in the open.
We know what's going on. Democrats in the Colorado General
Assembly are passing trans the kids' bills, and you're still

(03:07):
voting Democrat. I don't care if you're a suburban woman
who loves abortion. That's your issue, that's your pet issue. Okay,
well that's law of the land in abortion in Colorado.
Now you can have an abortion up to the ninth month.
I hate it. I think that's barbaric, but that's the law.
There's nowhere left to go on that battlefield. So your issue,

(03:28):
if that's your pet issue. I know there's a lot
of women. I know a couple of them personally, that's
the only issue they vote on. We're talking about women
in their fifties who don't have to worry about that anymore,
but they still they want younger women to be able
to kill babies. That's really important. That is how they
identify as women. As can I conceive a child in
my womb and then kill it before it's born. That

(03:49):
empowers me as a woman. If that sounds a little extreme,
try me on that. Look at some of these maniacs
who show up to pro abortion rallies and celebrate the
number of abortion they've had. They wear t shirts to
that effect, they scream their abortions. These are not mentally
well people. I'm sorry, and I'm not even extremely fervid
on that issue, but this is one of those where

(04:11):
the maniacs on the left have pushed me to the
right where I'm like, well, hold on a minute, that's nuts.
You're crazy. And the trans the kid's stuff is more
of that. If you know about the trans the kid
stuff and you should and you're going, yeah, well you know,
not my kad, then I'm gonna vote Democrat anyway. Because
I love abortion or I love weed, I love marijuana.

(04:35):
Then I don't know what to do for you. Because
our way of life in Colorado is being ruined, it's
being pulverized, it's being undermined, it's being obliterated because of
this madness. And to pin this all on Tracy Dorland,
I mean, that's just the shallow end of the pool here, folks.

(04:57):
We've been reporting on this, on this pro gram and
on Dan's program for some time now. It's out of control.
It is an epidemic in Jeff Cost schools. And it's
not just Jeff Cost schools. We hear about some crazy
blank happening in Cherry Creek School District. When I came here.
When I moved here in November of twenty eighteen, one

(05:18):
of the things I did was I looked up you know,
what is the best public school district in the state
of Colorado, and not only the state of Colorado, I
would find out, but Cherry Creek Schools were regarded as
maybe the best school system in the Mountain West, in
this whole region. And they have gone down the woke
road and path of disaster. They view your kids as

(05:39):
their kids. Cherry Creek Schools is a family and parents, see,
you're not really involved or included in this process anymore.
We're gonna box you out. Kid wants to identify by
a different gender. You don't acknowledge that, you don't affirm that,
you don't pay for the gender transition hormones and surgeries
for that, We're gonna take your kids away from you.

(06:01):
Are you kidding me? The one thing I'm very confident in,
and that confidence maybe waning the further that Michigan drifts
into the abyss and goes to the left, But I'm
very hopeful that my home state is going to elect
a Republican governor this next time around, that eight years
of Gretchen Whitmer is enough is enough? Now they love

(06:21):
abortion in my home state too, But the trans the
kid's stuff, No, that's not happening. I have to believe.
I want to believe. I do believe that if the
wacky ass Democrats brought that up in the Michigan Legislature,
not only would they be laughed and mocked and cajoled
and ridiculed out of office and voted out of office,

(06:42):
it might be the end of the Democratic Party in Michigan.
But for some reason, here in Colorado, it's kind of
floating through the ether, and only people that kind of
are on our side of this, the same side of this,
are standing up and saying something about it.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
You know.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
Hats off to Jennifer Say, she was on this program
earlier this week, the CEO and founder of XXXY Athletics.
You talked about going from the frying pan into the fire.
She moved from San Francisco, California. Oh that's terrible, right,
executive at Levi's. She fought the good fight against the
COVID lockdowns and restrictions for kids in schools, and it

(07:18):
eventually cost her her position there indirectly, maybe directly, and
she relocated to Colorado where she set up shot literally
for xx x y Athletics. So she went from San Francisco,
land of fruits and nuts to Colorado. There's a joke
there about that. I'm not going to go there, Shannon,
I think followed me into that door. But Sands those

(07:42):
things because we're going to surgically remove them from the kids.
How anyone leaps to that square of our first course
of action is to over medicate the kids. I'm with
Tom Cruise on that one. By the way, the Deanna
depressants all drugging the kids up, filling them up with
drug No, have the kids talk to somebody first. That's

(08:05):
the first course of action. Do they need to be
chemically altered or adjusted? Maybe, but maybe not. And you
know what, probably not. Kids are gonna be kids. Kids
are gonna have problems. Kids are gonna have some questions
and confusion when they're going through puberty. Their bodies are changing,
They are changing their voices, how they look, where hair

(08:27):
is growing, their body parts. What's happening down there. Doesn't
mean they're Trands. Might not be comfortable with the process,
but trust the process. God invented the process, or biology
or science. Whether you're an atheist or a person who
believes in God, creationism or both like me, either way,

(08:49):
robbing children of their ability to develop that is absolutely maniacal.
You wouldn't do.

Speaker 4 (08:58):
It to a puppy, you wouldn't do it to a kitten.
So why in the name of God are you so
willing to do it to a child, a human being,
a little one, a young one, somebody who is a miner,
who doesn't have a fully formed brain, who cannot make
their own decisions. But we're going to make this one
for you, along with you, and we're not going to

(09:19):
think to question it. We're not going to allow therapists
in the state of Colorado to offer an alternative to
gender transition.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
No, you must affirm the child's gender identity. No, you
tell them they're nuts, they're going through a face. It's
gonna be okay. If you need to talk about it,
we'll do that. But I gotta tell you, as somebody
who hopes to be a father and has a very
willing partner who is very like minded on this issue

(09:49):
along with me, our kid comes to us and says,
I think I'm the opposite gender. I would go, well,
I think you're not, and I don't care what the
Colorado law says. Come try me, Come try me on that.
Come try to take my kid from me. No, No,
I mean, I can't believe some of this stuff that's
going on because they're barking up the wrong tree. And

(10:12):
if they try that with me, they got another thing coming.
That's my kid. I have the main over this child.
I created this child, I named this child. I paid
for this child, for food, for shelter, for clothing, for upbringing,
for discipline, for rules and boundaries and how you're gonna

(10:34):
live your life. And you're just gonna rip that kid
away from me because you decide that this kid knows
better than I do a fifty year old adult what
gender they are. They are the gender they're born as
in virtually every circumstance. But they flipped the coin on this.
The state of Colorado is saying any kid, for any

(10:55):
reason who questions his or her gender and wants to
change one of the time, we're changing them.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
No.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
Do you know the percentage of the population that's actually transgender,
It is minuscule, and a vast majority of these kids
who experience some confusion, and you know what, maybe they're gay,
and that's okay. Being gay is okay. Just be gay,
it's fine. Lock Cabinet Republicans are right down the road.
I know them personally, they're great people. You don't have

(11:25):
to go to those lengths to try to transform yourself
into something that will not bring you happiness, that will
not bring you satisfaction, acceptance that you're searching for, that
you're pining for, that you're absolutely dying to have. And
the whole thing we heard about, I believe it was
Aaron Lee. We had that conversation, and she's brilliant, by

(11:45):
the way in this fight. And otherwise that Okay, Gary,
they're gonna have a dead son or a living daughter
or vice versa, like, come on, No, that's a false choice,
that's not even real. And it's not that you're not
sensitive to the child. I don't want to come across
as that crass, although I'm getting pushed to the point

(12:06):
where maybe some tough love would be good here, tough talk, direct, blunt,
to the point, no gray area, don't confuse the kids further,
tell them what is and what isn't. Be honest with them,
Be honest with them and what people on the other
side of this is the trans the kid's crowd cannot do.
They cannot be honest with the kids because they are

(12:27):
promising them on this Primrose path, this panacea that does
not exist. There are so many young people who end
up detransitioning, and guess what. Once it's done, it cannot
be undone, not completely. You're sterilized. That's it. You're done
for life. The organs are removed, they're gone. You can't
get them back. This is a decision of such gravity

(12:52):
that the default position obviously should be Let's keep the
kid's body parts intact. Let's not mess with the biology
of the situation that they need for their development to
grow old and healthy, strong bones, muscle structure, heart and
lung development. You're robbing these children of those things by
blocking the hormones that naturally occur within them because they

(13:14):
were born either xx or xy. That's the way it goes.
And through your Franklin science transhousing by proxy, you're going
to try to manipulate that and change science that does
not exist. That does not work. I think it was
Aaron as well, it was, and God lover for doing it.
I mean, this is what I'm talking about. The straight
talk express, you know, barring the phrase from the old

(13:37):
McCain campaign back in two thousand, show them the pictures,
show them the pictures. What you actually get Oh, we're
gonna just manufacture this false penis on the inside of
your thigh or your forearm. Animal will attach it and
it'll be good as new. No, it's not. Have you
seen one of these things. I've seen more lifelike creations,

(13:59):
and like a marionette puppet, they're not real. They don't work.
It's cosmetic only. It's for optics and appearances. Like as
a man. Channon two can attest to this. I believe
he's a man. Put on a pair of pants and
guys have a certain fit in that region and it'll
look like that. But for you young women out there that

(14:22):
might be thinking maybe I'm a man, you're not and
you never will be, and you're not gonna have that part,
and it's not gonna work, and it's not gonna work.
You're gonna be robbed of any kind of sex life satisfaction,
that kind of you know, you for it feeling, trying
to keep it clean. Here, join me later at the
bar tonight. Maybe we'll have that other conversation. But these

(14:44):
other reports we're getting the aftermath of these Frankin surgeries,
they're not real. They're based on a false premise. We
are being sold a bill of goods, a lie by
the protrans the Kid's crowd, and it's time that it's
and I will talk about it if I have to,
every day on this show for the rest of time

(15:05):
until this is overturned. The fact that Jared Polis pretends
and portrays himself as some kind of libertarian, yet would force,
would compel people to participate in another person's fantasy that
might be against their belief system, their morals, their values,
their religion. I mean, this is going to go down

(15:27):
in flames through the courts, and I hope that it does,
and I hope that it does sooner rather than later.
We have to continue to fight this, whether it's Masterpiece
Cake Shop and Jack Phillips, whether it's Lorie Smith and
three h three Creative, whether it's Jennifer Say right now
with this thirteen twelve monstrosity. And this frustrates me too,

(15:47):
and I know it frustrates a lot of you. We've
already fought this fight, and we've already won it, and
yet the Democrats keep coming back time and again another
bite at the apple on this issue, because, as Dan
Bongino said, the process is the punishment. Jennifer Say told
me she's the CEO and founder of XXXY Athletics, a
very successful woman. There is no way she could fut

(16:09):
the bill for this legal action without the help of
Alliance Defending Freedom. So put that at the top of
your cue in your web searchers, etc. Donate money to
Alliance Defending Freedom. They're not paying me to say that.
That's what I feel, That's what I believe in. Because
this is not gonna stop. We got to hand them
L after L after L just loss loss loss. This

(16:33):
can never win, This can never prevail. We can never
stop fighting it, and I won't, and I know a
lot of you won't. You can't because once you give in,
you've submitted, you surrendered to the insanity. And I'm just
not gonna do that because I know right from wrong.
I know that from fiction. I know science from pseudoscience
doesn't take a genius. But believing in this fairy tale

(16:58):
is toxic. It is damaging, it is dangerous, and that's
where the Democrats would lead us right off the edge
of the cliff five seven seven three nine. You can
send your texts in Ryan. I saw a blurb by
my cell saying Trump would look into a pardon for Diddy,
tell me it isn't true. What is the old saying,

(17:22):
believe half of what you see and none of what
you hear, or something like that. But especially on the interwebs,
Frandy down in the spring, she'll send me something like,
apparently there's a report Aaron Judge, outfielder for the Yankees.
I like him. I like him. I don't like the Yankees,
but I like him. There's a report that he's refusing

(17:43):
to wear like a Pride hat or patch or something
on his uniform. But immediately upon reading it, I scrutinized it, like,
I don't know about this. Are there two or three
other sources reporting us? And I'm talking believable sources, And
trust me, that is a difficult pursuit and endeavor in
and of itself, finding reliable sources, because the host of

(18:03):
reliable sources at one time on CNN was Brian Selter,
who is not a reliable source. So that's a joke.
Getting to your votes again. Our Friday Fool of the
Week nominees James Comey, Michelle Obama, and Joy Behar. This
one's for Joy. I hope Joy keeps saying things like
this that Democrats. You just give up on men. Teach
us to stop being sexist. Damn it. Lecture us, tell

(18:26):
us what to do, tell us how bad we are
for being men. That's a way to get our vote.
Channon's going to turn right around and start voting blue.
Ah if he had a severe brain injury, which I
hope he doesn't get, and I know that he hasn't had. Anyway,
the text continues, it's exactly this mindset that has people
seeing the Left for what they are. My vote is
for Joy, this one for Michelle Obama. Michelle can help

(18:47):
Dems communicate to men. Lol. Oh, I see what you
did there. Okay, take it easy. I know it's a Friday.
Slow down a little bit and catch my breath. Gonna
come back after this. On Ryan Schuling Life Trajan Wealth.
I've had one meeting and I'm looking forward to a
second as well. That was supposed to be this week.

(19:08):
We heard about that big pile up on I twenty
five north of here, so rescheduled for next week and
I'll provide an update then. But at this point, what
I've been presented are a lot of options and a
lot of peace of mind, and I'm looking forward to
meeting with Andy Justice. That'll be in the Denver Tech Center,
Greenwood Village here one week from yesterday, so next Thursday.
There are also offices in Broomfield and Loveland if those

(19:30):
are more convenient for you. You can set up a free
consultation by phone at seven two oh four zero five
thirty three hundred. That's seven two oh four zero five
thirty three hundred. And what will happen in that initial meeting.
It's an information gathering, a session trying to figure out
where you've been in your career. If you've got other
retirement plans that might be tied up somewhere, if you

(19:50):
can reconfigure those and get them all on the same page,
pulling in the same direction going forward. That is why
Trage and Wealth is here for you. Now. They have
veterans galore, and Andy's just one of those, and several
members of their team that are going to contribute to
putting together a portfolio that makes the most sense for
you long term, short term, while you're working in retirement,

(20:13):
and the legacy you lift behind. Those are the three
areas that they're going to focus on. And I'll get
into more details on that. As I mentioned in next
week's meeting. They're looking to mitigate risks, optimize your wealth.
Maximize that wealth, and make sure you're set up for
a retirement that is beneficial and rewarding for you. Get
that party starting, set up that free consultation. Seven to

(20:34):
two oho four zero five thirty three hundred that's seven
two zero four zero five thirty three hundred are online
trajanwealth dot com. That's Trajan Wealth, a proud sponsor of
Ryan Shuling Live. The Colorwader. Rockies are setting records for
the worst star in MLB history.

Speaker 2 (20:49):
Some fans are trying to set.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
A more positive record. Here's the catch. All of those
fans have the same name.

Speaker 5 (20:54):
The group is calling for everyone named Ryan to fill
a section of the stands at Coorsfield on June twe
Their goal is to set the record for the most
people with the same name in attendance at a baseball game.
So if your name's not Ryan, you can still go.
The group brings all of the necessary paperwork for anyone
to legally change their name to Ryan. So if you're
not a Ryan, you could become one.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Why did you become a Ryan for this game? We
want to know about it. We want to do a
story of that. I identify as Ryan Shulick. I didn't need
to change my name. My mom bestowed that name upon
me at a time when that name was not very popular.
I was born in nineteen seventy four. I was a
Christmas present Christmas nineteen seventy three. Do the math. My

(21:39):
birthdays on September twenty sixth. That's all I want to
say about that. But in nineteen seventy three, one of
the biggest movies of this summer was Paper Moon, starring
Ryan O'Neil, who recently passed and his daughter Tatum. My
mom was going to name me Clayton Joel Clayton, after
a town in Missouri that was very close to Saint Louis.

(22:00):
He just liked the sound of it, had a kind
of a Southern ring to it. She always liked the South,
and Joel in part after Billy Joel, one of her
favorite artists of that time and of all time. But
she chickened out at the last moment and decided to
move Clayton to my middle name and for some reason
not name me Joel, but name me Ryan after Ryan O'Neill,
at least in part. That's what inspired her, and she

(22:23):
thought it's a nice name. There aren't a lot of
Ryans out there. And then the seventies happened and Ryan's
were everywhere, and I got to say, in my grade,
little grass Lake, Michigan, there was this a fun story.
So we moved from Paintney to grass Lake and Paintney's
a pretty big school and grass Lake was not. And

(22:44):
I go on a tour with Missus Bond. I remember
very small school again. Graduating class was somewhere in the
round fifty fifty students. And I'll never forget this. I'm
in the hallway and I'm being shown around. It's my
first day at grass Lake Schools. I'm in seventh grade,
and this girl named Missy Childs comes walking down the
hall and Missus Bond says, hey, this is Ryan. She says, oh, Ryan,

(23:06):
we already have one, and then was on her merry way.
Ryan Jingers, who ended up being one of my teammates
in baseball, good guy, leader, respected him and a smart guy.
So we had a lot of the same classes. I
went all through our middle school and high school experience,
so not even in that small of a town was

(23:26):
I unique to my name and there were a lot
of Ryans born in I think throughout the seventies and
maybe early eighties that would be Ryan Edwards by the way,
KAA and I think the two biggest names as I
recall for me gen X through eighties in school, Jason
for boys, a lot of Jason's and Jennifer. Oh, Jennifer

(23:48):
was like being named Vanilla in the eighties. What's your name? Oh,
there's like thirteen Jennifers. So I guess I could have
had it worse. But as far as this goes from
katievr as you just heard and Rocky and they're not
having a good time. Okay, they're having a bad time.
It's really weird for me. I have this Jeckyll Hyde
relationship with baseball right now because I love the Rockies.

(24:08):
I've had a little, tiny partial season ticket passport thing
for the last several years. It's a great deal. I
get the MLB Extra Endings package out of it, meaning
I can watch my other team, the Detroit Tigers, who
happen to be right now the best team in baseball.
So I'm watching the Tigers go oh, okay, that's good,
They're a good team, and then oh my god, what
happened to the Rockies, but they got they gotta do something,

(24:31):
and somehow they spun the wheel and it landed on Ryan.
So there is I looked it up. There's a section
it's off in left center field designated just for Ryan's everywhere,
and I've had the conversation with Ryan Edwards. I think
we're gonna do some kind of promotion out of this
ticket giveaways. We're brewing something up. Dave Tepper, program director,
and Ryan Edwards and myself, I always call him, Hey,

(24:51):
r E. He's like, what's up. RS. That's another one
though he's younger than me, but he was on like
the tail end of the Ryan boom. There was a
Ryan boom. So one of many events the group. There's
a group dedicated to this, by the way, heading up
their main goal of breaking the world record for the
largest gathering of people with the same name, which was
set in twenty seventeen when three and twenty five people

(25:14):
named Ivan gathered. That's interesting because that was my grandfather's name,
Ivan Ersitch, my mom's dad. Their largest event so far
has brought six hundred Ryans to Los Angeles. I actually
looked my name up on Urban Dictionary too, and thank god,
it's a compliment like he's such a Ryan, Like it's
a I don't know, like he's a cool guy. Okay,

(25:37):
I'll take that. Ryan Lee, co founder and event organizer
for the nonprofit organization Ryan Meetup. I'm not making this up.
This exists, told Fox thirty one that Ryan Meetup is
a safe space for Ryans, but it's not limited to Ryan's.
I don't know that I need a safe space for
my name. He said that for each event, the group

(25:58):
brings all the necessary paperwork for anyone to legally change
their name to Ryan. So if you want to join
the club, I gotta tell you it's a lot of fun.
And I had this interchange with Ryan Edwards on Twitter too,
so you may have met me in person. And when
I introduced myself, you know, you don't know me by sight.
You might know me if you hear my voice. That's
happened before. But I'll introduce myself. Hi, I'm Ryan with

(26:20):
an R And they're like, duh, how else would you
spell Ryan? I'm like, you know what, whenever I don't
do that, oh what Brian with a bee? Invariably almost
every single time if I don't interest introduce myself as
I'm Ryan with an R. And I got that idea
from The Karate Kid when Elizabeth Shoe. I had dreams

(26:41):
about Elizabeth Shoe. As a young guy, I wouldn't know
what to do. I was like ten when The Karate
Kid came out, but when it did, and when she did,
and she was Ali with an I and Karate Kid
and she told daniels On that he was like, I'm
Daniel with an L ha ha, but I had fantasy.
He's like, oh, if I married Elizabeth Shoe, she wouldn't
have to change your name very much. You just had

(27:01):
to add a link to it. Like I'm serious, I
would think about this if I need Elizabeth Shoe. You
a little bit older than me, but I can gameplan
this out. And then I watch Adventures in Babysitting and
one of the characters in that was like exactly the
same age as me, and itd a big crush on
are Like, I can follow his lead. This could actually happen.
I've never met her, by the way, and no, I
didn't stalk her. I didn't get weird about it. But
I was a willing participant. Let's put it that way.

(27:25):
The website. This is awesome. The website notes that Brian's
are not allowed. No Brian's allowed. Sorry, Brian's out there,
and Lee explained that this is because the Ryan meetups
are a safe space where their names will not be
mistaken for Brian. I didn't even read that part of
the story until I just got to it right there.
About my own experience with being called Brian, It's an annoyance,

(27:45):
to put it mildly. Nope, he said. One time, a
couple of Ryan's were on Wheel of Fortune and met
Ryan Seacrest. I was called that for a time by
an arena football player who couldn't say my last name,
so they just called me Seacrest and then they'd say,
like seret out. And then Seacrest noticed one of the
Ryans was wearing a Ryan meetup shirt that said no

(28:06):
Brian's allowed, and he kind of gave us an affirmative
nod as if he was called Brian Seacrest back before
anyone knew who he was. That's just one of the
common bonds that bring Ryan's together. This is crack. I'm
reading this for the first time with all of you.
This is really cracking me up. And there's a page
dedicated to it on the Rockies website. They're playing the Diamondbacks.

(28:29):
It'll be Friday, June twentieth, six point forty. I have
every intention of going. Chad Bauer brought this to my
attention the KOA newsroom. And get this. The guy running
the event for the Rockies. Guess what. His name's Ryan,
Ryan tap Tapp. And I've already emailed the Rockies and
they've emailed me back, and we're talking about it. So

(28:49):
let's get this coordinated, especially, but not only, if you
are a Ryan out in this audience. First of all,
tip of the cap to you, my friend. Great name.
We're gonna try to make this happen. We're trying to
make it big. We're gonna go big. Brian Edwards yours
truly the Ryan meet up Rockies. There's it's one of
the only reasons to go to a Rockies game these days,

(29:11):
because it's gonna be fun. And again, they're playing the Diamondbacks.
And again that's Friday, June twentieth, at six point forty
in the PM. Still have our Friday Fool of the
Week to get to. We'll have those votes tallied, the
winner loser announced and your text five seven seven three nine.
That's how you can send your votes. That's how you
can comment opine on anything we've discussed on the program today,

(29:32):
or even going back to the right side of Hollywood
wrapping up on this Friday after this, lots of texts
to close out and appreciate you sending them in. At
five seven seven three nine, Patty says, my fool is
Michelle Obama so ungrateful? She's got some kahones playing the

(29:53):
poor meet card. Oh Patty, that was sneaky. Come on,
come on now, this about the opening segment of this hour.
I'm confused. How is it that children cannot consent to
sexual activity, but they can consent to change genders? Ding, Ding, Ding.
I think you're over the target with that one. There's
an intentional blurring of the lines and confusion. There's a

(30:17):
reason why there is an element of the far left
that would be protrans to the kids, that is also
pro maps meaning minor attracted persons, rather than calling them
what they are, pedophiles, monsters not to be included in
our society. But this grooming and this preparing a public

(30:39):
to be okay with that, I think is the road
to having young people be in control and can have
complete agency over their own bodies, their own decisions about
their own bodies, and therefore their own decisions about what
to do with their own bodies. And you can do
the math from there as to where that leads. I,
for one, oppose it. I like this comparison of a

(31:03):
young teenage girl thought her body was obesed and she
was actually anorexic, and she went to the doctor. Would
we prescribe her diet pills and schedule her for a
tummy tuck or would we get her some mental counseling
for the anorextria. That's a very good example. I believe
that's a very good example, because people have body dysphoria
in much the same way that people have gender dysphoria,
So that is almost a direct comparison. Mountain Grandma says,

(31:27):
Hubby's first name is Byron. That's my grandpa's Shoolings given name.
Almost always called Brian, so he generally goes by his
middle name. So I'm the grandson of Byron. My name Ryan,
not Brian anything in between. This one says Ryan, I
have often been a victim of being called Brian also,
and all this talk victims safe spaces for Ryan. I mean,

(31:50):
it's cracking me out. Let's get serious. Ryan. As another
Ryan I wanted to share. I also went to a
small high school. Seventy people in the graduating class. However,
there were seven other Ryan's in my class at one point.
Do the math. That's ten percent. Oh that's wild Ryan.
All Ryan, No, Brian love it. I mean, all apologies
to Brian's out there, but I think your name, for

(32:10):
some reason, receives some kind of prominence. People assume it Ryan.
I'm a Clayton never had the chance to ask my
pops why it has been very very good to me.
It's good. And here's a nineteen eighty four Jason. Yeah,
there's a lot of those. Well we did the tallies
and our Friday fool of the Week James Comy. I
think people have Komy fatigue and they just didn't want

(32:31):
to hear his voice another week. And I don't blame
you one bit. I do think he might have been
the most deserving though, taking that shot at Dan Bongino,
Joy behar are ridiculous comment saying that dem should just
it's just stop trying to win back men. Tell them
that to teach them not to be sexist and keep
browbeating them and lecturing to them. But no, we're gonna
go to Michelle Obama so detached from reality, so out

(32:54):
of touch with the common folk that she is just
constantly going on this podcast of hers along with her
brother and planing about how hard her life was. The
first lady, let me cry a single tear, but it's
on my right cheek.

Speaker 2 (33:07):
There was a line of people waiting to shake hands
with our respective husbands, you know, people like reaching over
our heads and spilling water on us, trying to get
to these two, you know, illustrious men, you know.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
Uh, And she didn't.

Speaker 3 (33:23):
She didn't.

Speaker 2 (33:24):
She had the same look on her face as I did,
like here we go, you know. And I looked over
at at this beautiful woman.

Speaker 1 (33:35):
We had Did we.

Speaker 2 (33:36):
Even have a conversation, Not until later in the and
that was why you hadn't met. We hadn't met. But
I just saw a look on her face which which
expressed the sentiments that I felt, which was pissed.

Speaker 1 (33:50):
Off, just so angry these people coming they want to
talk to the President, Barack Obama or Donald Trump. I
think she was talking about Malania Trump. There Kelly, do
you have simpathy from Michelle Obama? Should we start up
like a Sarah McLoughlin commercial, you know, in the arms
of the angel, like with the animals. Not at all,
not even a little, no me. It was a really

(34:10):
hard life for her, and she was not proud to
be in America until her husband got elected president, and
even that, apparently she's got some problems and you're going
to hear about them. How many of her podcast episodes
have you listened to? Kelly? Zero? Zero? Whit? Why? Zero?
Why not just give it a shot? You gotta listen
to one, don't you? No? No? Okay, Yeah, I'm all
in no today. She's the Queen of no.

Speaker 4 (34:33):
Yeah, I'm the Queen of no.

Speaker 1 (34:34):
Do you remember when Rosie O'Donnell was referred to as
the Queen of nice? Do you remember that she had
her own television show So Generous until she was She's Nasty? Yeah,
you missed You missed a lot, by the way, Kelly,
and we missed you, so thanks for coming back. This
text kind of sums up the whole thing. As you
can tell from this text. My vote is for Joey Baharsh.
She was an honorable mention second place, by the way,

(34:56):
win place and show Democrats twenty twenty to twenty twenty four.
You're straight, you're a man, You're evil. Yes, Democrats twenty
twenty four. Well, this is the updated version. Don't vote
for Trump. He's white, he's straight, he's a man, he's evil.
Vote for a Democrat and then Democrats in twenty twenty five.
I don't understand why men didn't vote for us. Yeah,

(35:16):
maybe talk to a guy. Talk to a regular old fella,
you know, could be Shannon, Scott, you know, could be
yours truly, Just have a little conversation. What does it
like to be a man, be a dude, be a
football watching American guy who enjoys drinking beer, you know,
just a regular guy. And I talked about that with
Scott Jennings on CNN yesterday. If you missed that episode,

(35:38):
it really was epic. He joined me for the whole
opening segment of Our Number one and Rob Dawson even
chimed in with a question toward the end. But Scott's great.
We're hoping it's the first of several conversations to come
between now and his book, which comes out on December fifth.
You can pre order it on Amazon for around thirty dollars.
So if you're looking for that kind of Christmas present early,

(35:59):
or maybe you just kind of get that as a
Father's Day present, but then you show like, hey I
got this for you, it's not coming until December, that
might not be as good of an idea, A good
idea for all of you. Stay tuned for the Dan
Kaplis Show. He's coming up next. I'll join you again
on Tuesday. I'm going home. My niece is graduating from
high school back in Chelsea, Michigan. Very proud of her
and Jimmy Sangenberger I believe will be filling in on Monday.

(36:20):
I have a great weekend, everybuddy,
