Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
I'm gonna do this to you just because it's Friday
when I have some fun. Yeah, I mean, this is
not fun what we're talking about, but I think you'll
get what I'm doing here.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
So during the break, case He's.

Speaker 1 (00:08):
Like, I just don't have the energy to do anything
serious for the rest of the week.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
It's just so heavy sometimes, so what you just say,
it's Friday, Like, let's have some fun.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
It's a little bit of inside baseball on how the
show works. Casey puts together this big, massive, sprawling template.
You no doubt stayed up late into the night because
she can get home until late. And then I basically
don't look at it. And then before each segment, I'm like,
what do you want to do? And then Casey lays
out like nine different options and then I don't take
any of those options and I just do something else.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
Yeah, and it's gonna be one of those.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
Okay, Great, So since you don't want to do anything serious,
we have some breaking Epstein news. Oh this is actually
very interesting. So the intellectualist, we'll put this out on Twitter.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
Ron Wyden.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
He is a Democrat senator from Oregon, and he has
a video that corresponds with this that Epstein that the
Trump administration is in possession of an Epstein file which
details four thousand, seven and twenty five wire transfers and

(01:17):
almost one billion dollars throwing flowing through just one of
his banks, hundreds of millions of more, according to Ron Wyden,
go through others.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
Now we mentioned.

Speaker 4 (01:29):
That a couple of weeks ago.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yeah, but I mean, now you've got a ut Now again, Look,
these people are as scummy as you can get, these politicians.
So I'm not running around away my hand's going, oh,
look at this smoking gun. But what I am saying
is this is a United States senator putting his name
behind it. Again, these are shameless people. So it's not like,

(01:53):
I mean, remember what Harry read one time was like,
what do you accuse Mitt Romney of cheating on his
taxes or something?

Speaker 2 (01:58):
With no proof?

Speaker 1 (01:59):
And then they're like what I mean, He's like, well,
you'd have to ask him, right, So these people make
statements all the time, but that seems like a very
specific number and a very specific amount of money.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
And he's.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
He goes, I mean, this is a multi tweet thing
about the Trump administration being in possession of the file
detailing these wire transfers and the money that moved. Much
of it, he claims out of Russian banks.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
So he said there with four thousand, seven hundred and
twenty five transactions.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
Yeah, here's the clothes on this and against a long
it's at Ron Wyden on Twitter if you want to
read it yourself. Epstein had to pay for all his
sex trafficking somehow. Further evidence shows he used Russian banks
to process hundreds of millions in payments. Again, this info
is in possession of the Trump administration, but they're refusing
to investigate. And the problem is Trump has put himself

(02:56):
and that he made a video that corresponds with this,
and if you want to see that, he's got a
YouTube channel which he lays all this out. Now again,
am I running to you? Are fabulous audience going, oh
this is rock solid. You got to trust this guy.

Speaker 5 (03:08):
No.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
The problem is, though, because of the inactivity by the
Trump administration, all of this stuff is getting its own life.
The Democrats are desperate for anything because the public hates
them and they have They're clinging onto this and every
time every day that goes by.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
The whole story gets more murky.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
And this rests at the feet of the Trump administration
because they're refusing to put all the information out here.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
This is what Dan Bongino was referring to when he
said there's information that rocked him to his core.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
Well, who knows, I don't know. I mean, like I said,
it's just it is. It does make you step back though,
when it's a sitting United States senator. Now again, granted,
a guy from another party than the president, but this
is a United States senator or one of the most
one hundred powerful people in the war in the country,
putting his name behind this with very specific details of

(04:03):
what he's alleging to have happened.

Speaker 3 (04:04):
Well, he's alleging that all ties go back to Donald Trump.

Speaker 4 (04:09):
And where do we go from here?

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Yeah, So anyway, I just want to do something serious,
so I thought, well, let's lead with Epstein.

Speaker 6 (04:13):
How about that?

Speaker 3 (04:14):
That's yeah, nothing serious at all, just one of the
more serious stories that are going on. I mean, I
also had Tulsa Gabbard revealing that she's working to shut
down Operation Mockingbird in the CIA.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
No, no, no, I don't wan to do no other intelligence.

Speaker 4 (04:28):
Okay, so you actually really don't want to do anything, so.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
Well, that's why. So let's do something unseerious.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
Let's talk abou Kamala Harris very good.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
Yeah, she's confirmed that she's not going to run for
governor in California in twenty six a lot of people
speculating that that opens her up to run for president again.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
Yes, this is interesting. Many people thought it was going
to be a slam dunk if she ran for governor,
But then there were other people who said, okay, she
would start with all the inherent advantages. My words not
there as they didn't word it like this. But she's
such a rotten person and candidate that once you get past,

(05:09):
you know, it's like running a race, a mile race.
She's starting a half mile ahead of everybody else, but
once she actually has to start running, she's so slow
that there's a good chance somebody might, you know.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
Catch her.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
And that is my theory on this is that she
took a look at this in California is such a
mess as a state. It is such a mess, and
it is so so poorly run and so bad off
that she probably looked at that and said.

Speaker 4 (05:36):
It's a bigger project than I want to tackle.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
Yeah, and people are said to her, you know in
a very nice way. And I don't I don't think so, lady.
I don't think this is going to be something you
are going to like once you get in there. And
so she's what is she She's doing a book like
they all do.

Speaker 3 (05:53):
Yeah, she's got a book coming out. It's called one
hundred and seven Days. It's going to be released on
September twenty third, and it's her inside account of her
campaign for one hundred and seven year old.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
What do you think she's going to tell the truth
about how horrible she was as a candidate. Well, the
books you should have been titled I Suck, she said.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
Since leaving office, she spent a lot of time reflecting
on those days, and she believes that there's value in
sharing what she saw, what she learned, and what it.

Speaker 4 (06:23):
Will take for her to move forward.

Speaker 3 (06:25):
She did say that she reflected deeply and decided not
to seek elected.

Speaker 4 (06:30):
Office for now, but she was.

Speaker 3 (06:33):
Going to continue advocating for freedom, opportunity, fairness.

Speaker 4 (06:37):
And dignity for all. But I don't want to be
an elected office.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
So well, and.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
You you just never can get a straight story from
these people because they are so so self absorbed and
they are so invested wholly in themselves at the expense
of everyone else. Like is she even cape of processing
the reality of why she lost? Like is she even

(07:04):
in her own mind or given the people around her
that are always just trying to hang onto the gravy train?
Can can you at any point even get a straight
story out of her about why she actually lost? Or

(07:27):
is she just convinced herself? Is that like OJ at
this point, as she told herself so many times, it
wasn't her fault. That she's convinced herself it wasn't her fault.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
Donald Trump was giving her a bit of a hard
time after she ruled out the California governor run and
announced her new book.

Speaker 7 (07:42):
Kamala Harrison, as you know, is not running for governor
of California.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
She's not going to do it.

Speaker 8 (07:47):
What are you seeing her political future?

Speaker 9 (07:48):
Sir, Well, she can't speak, she can't talk, she can't
do an interview. I thought it was a very strange
campaign that we had. But you know, I had two
of them. We were up by like this massive number
of points on Biden, and they said, let's change to Kamala.

(08:10):
Nobody who knew who Kamala was nobody knew her last name, Harris.
They said, we're going to get vice president Harris. Everyone said,
who the hell is Harris? They only knew the first name.
But no, I thought she was a terrible candidate. Look,
don't forget she didn't really get the nomination. I mean
that whole nomination was strange. She was the first one out.
You know, she took good a good amount of points

(08:32):
with her when she announced, but nobody knew her. Once
they got to know her, they she dropped out very
shortly after she started. And she started with a pretty
good you know, she was like in second or third place,
but I don't know. I mean she I wouldn't call
her a skilled politician.

Speaker 1 (08:51):
One of the things Trump and obviously is not going
to happen that well. Of this mistakes Trump made the
first term was not recognizing and it's just not in
his DNA to do this. Hey, people didn't. A lot
of people didn't vote for me because they liked me.
They voted for me because they couldn't stand the other choice.
And I think that happened again. I think he was

(09:13):
so blessed to have run against two just rotten to
the core candidates in terms of Hillary and Kamala, and
he was running against the Biden administration. And I don't
think Trump has ever totally, ever come to grips with

(09:34):
the idea. And that's why I don't think he coalition
builds well, because he is under the impression why I
won two elections. She sure did, right, you did, but
the big part of that was who you ran against.
And if your goal is to get things done that
the American people like you got to find ways to
coalition build. And I don't think that's he's ever been
able to fully, you know, process that.

Speaker 4 (09:54):
Speaking of Joe Biden, he was in Chicago yesterday.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
Oh we missed him.

Speaker 3 (10:00):
He was speaking at the National Bar Association's annual gala,
and he was in Joe Biden form, whisper shouting. He
claimed that Donald Trump is working to erase everything that
his administration had accomplished.

Speaker 10 (10:16):
And yeah, correct, my friends, you need to face the
heart truth of this administration and has been to ease
all the gains we've made in my administration.

Speaker 11 (10:29):
To race history.

Speaker 10 (10:31):
Oh here we go, rather than make it to race fairness, equality,
to race justice itself.

Speaker 6 (10:38):
And that's not high problem, that's a fact, you know,
it's a fact.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
Jack, he's a racing justice itself. Okay, Nikki Kelly is
going to join us. Next, we're going to learn about
something probably she's from the Indiana Capitol Chronicle. We're going
to learn about something that we're spending state money on.

Speaker 2 (10:55):
Yes, that.

Speaker 4 (10:58):
Toy drinking.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
It's supposed to be something.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
We don't We don't really see how that's helping you
as a taxpayer.

Speaker 4 (11:04):
It's coming up next on ninety three WIBC.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
Casey, I learned something new our state is spending money
on us?

Speaker 2 (11:20):
Really?

Speaker 4 (11:21):
Are state spending money on something? Is this something you
want to me?

Speaker 2 (11:25):
It's like the Uh, it's like the daily grab bag
of surprises.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
What new thing that I find out our state is
wasting I mean spending money on t I mean surely it's.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
Something like clean drinking water or smooth roads.

Speaker 4 (11:38):
You know, it's something that will really affect your life, right.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
Oh, Casey, you and your drugs. Have you ever heard
of a challenge coin?

Speaker 3 (11:44):
Actually I have because I've been given one in the past,
but that's about the extent of it. I don't know
what they're for or what you use them for, but
they're very pretty Typically.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
We're spending a lot of money on these challenge coins,
and I want to get to the bottom of it.
And luckily for us, yeah, somebody has just done a
big expose on how much money our state lawmakers are
spending on the challenge coins. It's the Indiana Capitol Chronicle.
And when we talk about the Indiana Capitol Chronicle, one
of the best of the business, she runs the show
over there, Nikki Kelly joins us. Now, Nikki Kelly, Hello.

Speaker 12 (12:16):
Good morning.

Speaker 2 (12:17):
How do you eave?

Speaker 1 (12:17):
So you guys have a big piece And I find
this fascinating on how much we're spending on challenge coins.
Before we even get into all of this, how do
how do stories end up on your desk? Is it
like in the olden days where somebody slides an anonymous
vanilla envelope under under a debt like a door?

Speaker 2 (12:34):
How does it work?

Speaker 12 (12:36):
No, Honestly, most of them are just things we see
and and we had seen a few different posts over
the last year about challenge coins. I think we saw
one with the sectory of State Diego Morales and suddenly
and we were like, you know, I wonder if other
people have these, you know, And so we just asked

(12:57):
started asking some agencies and found out that they're actually
more popular than we thought, and more agencies have them
offices and things like that. So just spun into its
own story based on just something you see or hear about.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
One of my favorite things with you guys with the
Star with us is when people report on things, then
the lawmakers get mad that you reported on the thing.
It's not the thing that they did. Do you find
that where you guys are like, well, here you spent
this money. We're reporting on how you spent the public's money.
Why are you mad at us?

Speaker 12 (13:33):
You know, everyone was pretty good to work with on
this story. We actually talked a lot about the history
of challenge coins and obviously the costs were in there,
but it wasn't necessarily the focus, so we didn't really
get a lot of pushback. The only one who wouldn't
tell us the cost was the Lieutenant Governor's office.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
So that seems about right now, all right, what are these?
What are and how much are we spending?

Speaker 12 (14:02):
I mean it seems it seems pretty wide. I think like,
for instance, the Department of Child Services they have one
and I think they bought like five hundred of them
for about fifteen hundred bucks. I mean we're talking a
couple thousand dollars when they buy like a bulk amount
of them. Now, how often they do that, you know,

(14:25):
I don't know. It seems like most of them have
just bought, you know, one big set of them. But
they all started out with like military and law enforcement.
But now more people are doing it. The Senate, for instance,
they don't pay for theirs that like, the state doesn't pay.
They basically had one designed and individual senators can buy

(14:46):
them with their own money or with campaign money. So
I wanted to make that one clear too.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
But what are they like? What purpose do they serve?
Why are people in state government? Oh, Casey's pulling one
out right now?

Speaker 3 (14:58):
Well, I am because I saw in the article, Nikki
that it said the coins are awarded to individuals who
demonstrate the characteristics featured on the coin. And I have
been given a Challenge coin. So I'm wondering what the
characteristics are and how I ye.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Tell us all about challenge. He's holding a bright shiny
one right now.

Speaker 12 (15:21):
They're supposed to, I mean, they started with military and
law enforcement. They're supposed to honor your service to whatever,
you know, topic or goal you're doing. That's the purpose
of them. And so I guess people have just started
to have them beyond the military and service beyond like

(15:45):
law enforcement and military, and so I only knew about
them in a military context, and so now I just
think it's like a cool token they can give away
to people that you know. It'll say their office on it.
Or there's one for a GCS. It's actually really cute.
It's got a Jeddy Bear on it. But and I

(16:08):
also really loved the Indiana Indiana National Guard one. It's gorgeous.
It's got like a Indiana cut out in it, so
very cool. But otherwise they're just bright, shiny. They almost
look like a large quarter and you're just supposed to
hand them off as as like you said, like honoring

(16:29):
them or recognizing someone's service.

Speaker 2 (16:33):
Thanks for your service, Casey, you're welcome.

Speaker 4 (16:35):
Yeah, I mean that's the thing. How how does somebody
get one?

Speaker 12 (16:40):
I mean some people, I've been told, for instance, the
Secretary of State hands about a lot to pretty much anyone.
I think other people are a little more like DCS.
Sounds like they have one coming up. There was a
police officer saved a child's life they're gonna give one
to him. So I think it depends in each person,

(17:02):
but I think they're supposed to be pretty rare. It's
supposed to be a real honor.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
Nikki Kelly from the Indiana Capitol Chronicle is our guest,
all right, So we talked about this a whole bunch
two days ago. You guys had a great piece at
the Capitol Chronicle on how much money has been spent
on our US House members and their foreign trips.

Speaker 12 (17:26):
Yeah, and I got to give credit to the Arnold
Center for Investigative Journalism down at IU. The students there
put this one together, and obviously they got congressman senators.
They go on a lot of trips, and some of
them are paid by the government. The ones that this
story focuses on are ones that are paid by outside groups.

(17:50):
And so the idea was, you know, these are you know,
these are people who are getting wined and dined by
an outside group. And so that's what we looked at there,
and we looked at Indiana's congressional delegation and how much
money and their spouses are getting in pre travel.

Speaker 3 (18:09):
So, according to your article, the sponsors, they get access
to the lawmakers that they wouldn't otherwise be able to
get an appointment with or have some time with. Were
you surprised at the cost the amount of money that
is being spent on these trips and dinners.

Speaker 12 (18:27):
And yeah, I mean some of them are very interesting.
Some of them are these high, high salutant you know,
restaurants and very fancy hotels. And obviously they'll go to
an event. There are some you know, very important meetings
they're having or whatever. But also there's a lot of

(18:48):
tourist stuff, right, They're going to interesting spots in the
in the places, and so you know, they're all over
the nation, whether it be journalism, whether it be Jerusalem
or Spain or Italy. And I think the total that
they discovered since twenty twenty was about six hundred and

(19:10):
forty thousand dollars in international travel for House of Representatives
and their staffers, though it's mostly the congressman themselves.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
Yeah, and like you like, the Peace had like four
hundred and eighty five dollars a day on meals for
Victoria's sparts from this twenty twenty two trip to Israel.
I don't think Casey, in a month, I spend four
hundred and eighty five dollars. I mean, I tried to
hang it out with the right people. I use those
Arby's coupons. Apparently Victoria's SARTs didn't have any Arby's coupons, Nikki.

(19:42):
One of the quotes that was interesting in this is
from a guy by the name of Don Fox, who's
the former acting Director of General Counsel for the US
Office of Government Ethics. He basically said that they're the
sponsors are doing this because they want something. He said,
quote sponsors get access to the lawmakers that you would
not otherwise get if you had to schedule an appointment
in Washington, DC. And I think that's the concern for people,

(20:05):
right is these people, these starts, they're not running soup kitchens.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
Most of them really want something.

Speaker 12 (20:10):
Yeah, of course an access, as we all know, is
important obviously in this case, and even here in Indiana
on a smaller scale, transparency has become the word, like,
we don't ban the thing, we just make sure everyone
can see who's paying for what, you know, so that

(20:31):
you know, if there's an interesting vote, you can harken
back and say, oh, look, you know so and so
voted for this, and they spent three days in Italy
with this group learning about this, you know, and so
as long as the stuff is being made public and
we can see the connections, I think that's important. You know,

(20:53):
they're not breaking any rules or laws or anything like that.

Speaker 1 (20:57):
Okay, before I let you go, you have a fabulous
new and I we always point this out. The Capital
Chronicle very clearly separates these are our opinions, these pieces
that are opinions for those that are And you have
fabulous piece about something that has bothered me for years,
which is this dirty, rotten, no good year round schooling. Look,
summer break is summer break, and it doesn't say we
have a summer break anymore.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
What say you?

Speaker 12 (21:19):
Yeah, this is just one of those little things that
bugs me. And I think I even said in the piece.
You know, I'm going to sound very much like a
boomer in here, like an old mudgeon going, you know,
things were better in my day, but I just don't
get it. I look at the calendar. There, you know,
is no need to be going back to school in

(21:39):
late July or early August. But they built in all
these little breaks during the year now, additional days off
during the school year, and that takes away obviously from
a longer summer. And I don't think there's anything we
can do about it. I think the you know, horses
left the barn on this, but it's ridiculous in my opinion.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
Uh, one hundred percent agreement. And with that, Nikki Kelly,
you are the best. Thank you for all that you
guys do over at the Indiana Capitol Chronicle.

Speaker 12 (22:12):
No problem, you g's have a good day.

Speaker 3 (22:13):
Yeah, I have a great weekend. You're listening to Kendall
and Case on ninety three WIBC.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
Okay, the Price's house is so big. I can't even
calculate what the monthly payment would be.

Speaker 4 (22:27):
There's not enough spaces I.

Speaker 1 (22:29):
Can I will not let me calculate a twelve million
dollar payment.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
This is crazy. That's so much. I guess if it's
like to think of you got to ask, like how
much it is.

Speaker 4 (22:39):
You can't afford it?

Speaker 2 (22:39):
I got what we're trying to do is so. Jim ursays, see, you.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
Won't even let me go there, Well, let me go
to nine million like these more online mortgage calculators are
not letting me go to twelve million dollars. Jim Or says,
oh this is better, Okay, Jim Rsay's home is for sale, his.

Speaker 4 (22:55):
Twelve million dollar Carmel mansion.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
It's nine point.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
Four acres, right, and I mean it's just a fabulous
piece of property. And so there's obviously these online places
where you can enter mortgage information. Casey, it will only
let me go to nine million dollars on the one
that I'm operating, Okay, Okay, So let's just operate with
no down payment. We'll try to get as close as
we can to. Okay, if you had a nine million

(23:22):
dollar home with zero down.

Speaker 4 (23:24):
Payment, what percentage are you using?

Speaker 7 (23:27):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (23:29):
Six point eight six y two, just the number that
popped up, Yeah, over thirty years, and we're starting in
August of twenty five. A guess on a nine million
dollar home, what your monthly payment would be?

Speaker 4 (23:45):
Eleven thousand?

Speaker 2 (23:46):
Oh no, no, twelve thousand. Oh you're not even close. Really.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
Eighty two thousand, four hundred and forty five dollars and
forty four cents a month.

Speaker 4 (23:54):
Eighty two thousand a month.

Speaker 2 (23:57):
Yeah, well it's a nine million dollars wow.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
With six point eight two eight six two interest, now
of that you would end up making twenty one million,
two hundred and fifty six thousand, three hundred fifty seven
dollars in loan payments. Yeah, your total interest would be
twelve million, two and fifty six thousand, three hundred fifty
seven dollars in eighteen So.

Speaker 4 (24:16):
You're gonna pay in interest the price of the house.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
Now that's with no down payment.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
And another reason we're doing this is these mortgage calculators
don't appear to even allow you to go.

Speaker 2 (24:23):
At least the first couple ones up pulled up twelve million,
up to twelve twelve million.

Speaker 3 (24:28):
This is one of those places that you have to
be preapproved.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
By the way over the lad right, you can go
tour over the life of this. Now, obviously every town, city,
town is different. I mean, this is a very broad thing,
but you can do them. For Indiana, they calculate property tax. Yeah,
at least eleven point twenty five million dollars.

Speaker 2 (24:44):
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
Never run each month of that of your eighty two thousand,
eleven two hundred fifty dollars would be property tax.

Speaker 3 (24:52):
Oh so when I said eleven thousand, that was just
the just a property tax, not the actual payment. It's
a huge, huge residents twenty four thousand square feet and
built in nineteen ninety six, listed price twelve million. Right now,
it's got a full size indoor basketball court.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
Now you should get to tour that because.

Speaker 4 (25:12):
Theatre and is speakeasy. It has a speakeasy.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
We should get to tour this, all of us because
we have all helped pay for him to have that magnificent,
oh piece of property during his life based on money
taken from us, the attacks increases to pay for him
to have a free stadium. This is see this is
where it comes back to why people get outraged about
the sports deals. The guy at nine point four acres

(25:34):
in Carmel, I believe it backs up to the golf course.

Speaker 4 (25:38):
It does.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
The crooked still could stick. Thank you.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
Yes, we're John Daily win the PGA nine boy for
acres a twelve million dollar house, and you're led to
believe that he needed your help ski to fund a
football stadium. And people are like, it seems like he
probably could have done that himself.

Speaker 3 (25:55):
Six bedrooms, twelve bathrooms, six car garage. Now here's something rob.
You may not be able to afford the main residence.

Speaker 2 (26:03):
That's right, but it.

Speaker 3 (26:04):
Does have two standalone guest homes. OH one is known
as the cabin. Uh huh, it's it's only twenty seven
hundred square feet, three bedrooms, three and a half baths.
There's a second cottage as well, which has two bedrooms
and two baths, so you could you could maybe get
into the so if.

Speaker 2 (26:25):
You wanted to. So, if you wanted to maybe split
it up.

Speaker 1 (26:34):
I know that's a common thing in the real estate industry.

Speaker 3 (26:39):
I don't want the twelve million dollars main residents. I'll
take the cabin or second cottage.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
I'll spin it off like I just need a solid
acre near the golf course with the tiny cabin. I'll
sell the property and maybe I end up with the
cabin for a reasonable reasonable amount of money.

Speaker 3 (26:58):
Resort style pool us court with a viewing pavilion that
sounds nice, a custom children's play room. It's described as
a legacy estate, right privacy, luxury and colts themed inspiration.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
Oh sure, no, I mean how could you?

Speaker 3 (27:18):
It was designed for both serenity and grand Sure.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (27:22):
And I'm very pleased that in his life that I
could pay, as a middle class person in my sixteen
hundred square foot home, that I could pay more taxes
so that he could have all of these fabulous things.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
That makes me feel very good about.

Speaker 4 (27:37):
The It could be yours for the low price of
twelve million dollars. You know.

Speaker 3 (27:41):
There's some more construction going on another high ticket item. Yeah,
instruction announced for the White House, a two hundred million
dollar ballroom set to begin in September. It's going to
be adjacent to the East wing.

Speaker 1 (27:55):
Oh, so we have no money in our country. We're
thirty seven trillion in debt, will fifty seven trillion or
more in debt in the next ten years. But we
got money for another ballroom for the White House.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
Well, the new ballroom is going to cover ninety thousand
square feet, can seat six hundred and fifty people.

Speaker 4 (28:12):
But the funding, the funding rob is coming from Donald.

Speaker 3 (28:16):
Trump personally, always paying for himself and other donors.

Speaker 4 (28:20):
Oh, no taxpayer money.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Now you got my the other donors case, it's always
those other donors, because nobody gives something for nothing.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
Who are these other donors? Does it say?

Speaker 4 (28:32):
No, we don't know they see.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
Yeah, yeah, probably out of love of country and the
goodness of their heart.

Speaker 3 (28:38):
So the White House Chief of Staff, Susie Wiles, She
said that this is a commitment to preserving the White
House history while adding a new feature for future administrations
and Americans. Of course, the White House grounds right now,
they have updated the.

Speaker 4 (28:53):
Rose Garden with some stone pavers.

Speaker 3 (28:55):
Yeah, and they're saying, you know this, this is in
place of all the big events that they have under tents.
They set up these tents outside. Now they're going to
have a ballroom.

Speaker 2 (29:08):
Have you ever been to the White House?

Speaker 4 (29:10):
No, not on a walking tour, not inside.

Speaker 2 (29:13):
No Kevre traveler ever been to the White House.

Speaker 8 (29:16):
I've never even been to DC.

Speaker 2 (29:18):
It's crazy what.

Speaker 1 (29:19):
You've been to so many foreign countries, but you've never
been to your nation's capital.

Speaker 4 (29:23):
Right now, I find the other countries more interesting than
your nation's capital. There's so much history.

Speaker 6 (29:30):
It would be really neat. I would love to see
all the monuments and stuff.

Speaker 2 (29:33):
Maybe Trump and his donors will pay for Kevin to
tour rushing to DC.

Speaker 4 (29:37):
Yeah, they want to show him around.

Speaker 2 (29:39):
All right, is Hammer and Hammer's here today? I think

To that one right up the chartlegend.

Speaker 1 (35:39):
Yeah, had a request. And I'm going to just spring
this on you. And I'm not saying you got to
accept this challenge, but our audience is very disappointed that
that big fat phony chicken Diego Morales won't do an
interview after his little rant that he went on at the.

Speaker 2 (35:57):
Motor Vehicle Advisory Board. How are fake news?

Speaker 1 (35:59):
And so since he won't do an interview, somebody was
wondering if, because you're so good with the AI, if
AI Diego Morales might be able to do an interview
with Hammer and Nigel and you could ask him the
questions that he doesn't want to answer with us.

Speaker 6 (36:13):
AI accents are tough, but I will try.

Speaker 2 (36:18):
I will try.

Speaker 6 (36:18):
Now I might need AI. Jason Hammer.

Speaker 1 (36:22):
Jason Hammer, I love that like you'll be in a
lab over the weekend, Like at the Hammer estate, there's
a lab where you'll be trying to concoct.

Speaker 11 (36:28):
Oh, I've seen the lab. I've been there. I've concocted
in the lab. It's very impressive. More impressive than miine
for sure, to.

Speaker 7 (36:36):
Get Rubert home from the labeah. By the way, speaking
of AI, the AI of Rob.

if you actually got.

Speaker 6 (36:55):
Punched in the face, I didn't want to get blamed for.

Speaker 2 (36:57):
Oh I see. But here's the thing about us.

Speaker 1 (37:00):
We can we take it like we dish know, but
we take it. We don't take ourselves serious. Like, Okay,
put a picture.

Speaker 11 (37:05):
Of me getting punched in the pot, a picture of
media Hammer put up a couple of days ago shirt
list in my Sydney Sweeney pose and then at least
is slightly different than Sydney's Sweeney.

Speaker 1 (37:16):
You've got great jeans. But the point is we laugh
at ourselves all the time. And these politicians they cannot
handle any person in any way having any fun with
them or at their expense whatsoever.

Speaker 6 (37:30):
I call myself a fat bastard. In our latest picture,
I do like that.

Speaker 1 (37:34):
If you have not seen it, it is you. And
what's her face with Sophie Cunningham. Yeah, she's wearing the
hot Arby Hot Girl Arby Girls Yes shirt. And then
Hammer has a response to that, maybe I can get
an endorsement like she got because Arby's jumped on board.

Speaker 6 (37:50):
Yeah, maybe I can get a donut sponsorship.

Speaker 11 (37:52):
How how are you still coming off your high of

No?

Speaker 2 (38:07):
It's coming up for auction. Okay, okay, what's the opening bid?
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (38:11):
I would guess the final bid will be somewhere between
three and four million dollars.

Speaker 5 (38:14):
Probably not.

Speaker 6 (38:15):
She bought one of the original ones once.

Speaker 2 (38:18):
Really his cards so big right right below it.

Speaker 1 (39:06):
Well, one of the things he does for living is
he presses sports illustrated magazine. People send him their magazines.
He cleans them up to get them graded. Why they
send them in and get them graded? No idea, Like
I'm telling you, Nigel, at this at.
