just tap it, start talking, No waiting on hold and
waiting for a host to take your call, and we
get that immediately and we can share it with the
class today. One of the big questions, do you plan
to watch the presidential debate? I suspect all of us do.
After all, it for no other reason. There's nothing else

(01:32):
on televisions. What is OVA just a bit outside doing
what the count?

Speaker 4 (01:37):
Tom?

Speaker 2 (01:37):
We got his baseball to football season now and the
Little League World Series.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
But we'd love to hear from you.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
A lot of people like to tape their I'm so
and so from such and such a My morning show
is your morning show with Michael del Jorono.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
That's not to puff me up.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
Let's introduce yourself to your fellow Americans here at the
kitchen table. So use the talkback button, use the phone,
and of course there's good old fashioned email. Michael dat
I Heartmedia dot com. Red starts with like that wasn't
just a defeat of Jamal Brown? That was a shellacking. Yeah,
fifty eight to forty one percent. Wow, big eye problem

(02:14):
rears its head in New York for the squad and
taking down Jamal Brown and George Latimer's victory. President Trump
could announce his v pick as early as this week,
some of the rumors coming out. I wanted to share
something with you along those lines, because normally you would
wait till about a week maybe two prior to the
convention to make such an announcement, which we're getting dangerously

(02:36):
close to now anyway, So it's becoming moot. But nothing
is really like it used to be, is it. Donald
Trump didn't appear in one primary presidential debate, and he
had it all sewed up in days.

Speaker 4 (02:50):
Now.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
We've got a presidential debate tomorrow night. But why think
about this? First time in American history that these are
all firsts tomorrow night, first time in American history that
a general election debate has been owned and controlled by
a for for profit corporation. First time since the inaugural

(03:12):
presidential debate nineteen sixty between John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon.
We're not a single voter will be present at the debate.
It is the earliest presidential election year in history, and
the first time a debate is happening prior to both
the DNC and R and C conventions. It's the first
presidential debate since nineteen eighty eight that the Commission on

(03:35):
Presidential Debates has not sponsored. It's the first ever debate
between a sitting president and a former president. It's also
the matchup of the oldest two candidates. I mean, there's
a lot of storylines tomorrow night, a lot of firsts,

(03:57):
and of course no RFK not allowed. But how much
is baked in the cake? I mean, really, this is
the question of the day. Is there anything Donald Trump
could possibly do to lose support from his supporter? Is
there anything for whatever reason they still support Joe Biden

(04:19):
could he possibly do? No matter how he acts, the
right will say he's all the left to say he
looked great. Just seems like everything's already baked into the cake.
But those who really do this for a living and
have been doing this for a living, know that this
is different and beyond just all those firsts. Take Van Jones,

(04:40):
right hand man to Barack Obama translation probably still the
right hand man for the president.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
But I digress. We returned to the Milken.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
Institute, where the last time we were there it was
Anthony fauci Is some other scientists griping, we really want
to push this mRNA vaccine technology, but it's going to
take at least a decade and billions of dollars. I
wish there was a way around it. Another scientist chimed in, well,
we could have like a virus leak from a China
lab crating a world emergency.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
Then they'd have to not wait, which is exactly what
they did and exactly what they mandated.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
Say the secret weight at the Milk and Institute and
you you'll get a duck. So Van Jones is appearing
along with other political strategists. You'll hear the question he's asked.
But Van Jones sounds the clear alarm the Obama Biden
coalition is eroding.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
And I bring this up.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
It's part of our Sounds of the Day obviously because
it sounds, but also what we talked about yesterday. Don't
expect a twenty sixteen or a twenty twenty map, because
this is twenty twenty four.

Speaker 5 (05:51):
Trump does seem to be appealing to significant numbers, and
particularly let's see the voters.

Speaker 1 (05:55):
But also black men, what's going on.

Speaker 6 (05:59):
The Obama by and coalition is in trouble. It's in trouble,
and I get beat up every time I say it,
but you know, it's obviously it's in trouble, and it.

Speaker 4 (06:10):
Has to do with a number of things.

Speaker 6 (06:12):
Number one, the white working class guys left for your
campaign in twenty sixteen the Democratic Party, and now black
and Latin working class guys are falling along and they
don't have to follow in massive numbers against razor edge stuff.
So I mean, looks the vast majority of Black people

(06:33):
are going to vote for President Biden, the vast majority
of Black women are going to vote for President Biden,
the vast majority of Black men are going to vote
for preident Biden.

Speaker 4 (06:40):
But that's not the point.

Speaker 6 (06:41):
The point is you have a margin that is hurting
and uncertain among Black and Latin men as to whether
we have a place in this party. It's not easy
to talk about, but there is a sense among a

(07:01):
lot of guys that you talk to that they're just
tired of being lectured, tired of being wrong, tired of
being criticized, tired of being called toxic, tired of Frankly,
a lot of other groups getting more out of the
Biden administration than black folks got.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
This is a moment.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
I've been watching Van Jones well since Barack Obama took office.
The first time I've seen him speak honestly and straight
to the point. There are so many themes in this
minute and twenty eight seconds of sound.

Speaker 4 (07:42):
One.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
Notice what he said at the very outset, and I
get beat up every time I say that. That's part
of the narrative game. That's part of the extreme matrix bubble.
You take a firm position and you stick to it,
and there is no conversation, there is no debate, and
there are no facts, just a rational or irrational, immediate position,

(08:06):
and you'll hold it no matter what. Joe Biden can
be lost in space, as they say, and you're watching it,
and you'll you won't admit it. Anybody that's ever owned
a business, you live in this kind of bubble, You're
not going to be in business for long. You've got

(08:29):
to be willing to see the ugly and the beautiful,
the good and the bad. That's how we continue to improve. Now,
this is a guy that wrote it to the top
with Barack Obama never brought up but it's starting to

(08:50):
look like in a van Jones was on the show
right now, I'd have a serious discussion with him about this.
Do you have to have a black candidate to sell
effectively and dominantly to black voters? Because they didn't have
these problems with Obama and it was the same field policies.

(09:11):
Barack Obama didn't deliver for Black Americans any better than
Joe Biden's delivering for them. That's a whole other interesting conversation.
But notice what he said. I get beat up for
this all the time. I know exactly what he's talking about.
I don't think Donald Trump's an insurrectionist, but I think
he had a really bad day January sixth and said

(09:34):
a lot of really reckless, stupid things.

Speaker 4 (09:37):
I know.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
I was live on the air when he was saying them.
I'll actually go so far as to say.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
Knowing what I know, he knew now that was being
planned that day, very reckless, as reckless as Nancy Pelosi
that knew it was coming and did nothing for weeks.
But if I say that and the matrix we live in, oh, well,
you're not.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
Really for Trump. I knew it.

Speaker 7 (10:00):
You're one of those never Trumpers, aren't. You're one of
those Republicans in name only, and people turn on you.
This is the problem in America. We can't have conversation,
we can't have debate, we can't find consensus, we can't
perfect ourselves. So first and foremost, he's going the Obama

(10:21):
Biden coalition. It's in trouble. The next section he did
is exactly what we talked about yesterday. You're talking about
in twenty sixteen, twenty thousand votes swung a state Trump's way.
Four years later, twenty thousand votes swung it back Biden's way.
And so we said most Blacks are voting for Joe Biden.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
But the fact that it's not.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
Ninety six percent and it's down to sixty nine to
seventy percent, that's the problem in Philadelphia. So that's a
problem for Pennsylvania. And Donald Trump can win the presidency
without Pennsylvania. Joe Biden cannot. Frank honest, and for all

(11:03):
the nonsense of narratives that we play every day, what
he just said in a minute, in twenty eight seconds
is what's really gonna drive the result. So if you
can ignore the noise and keep your eye on the ball,
you know if it's gonna be a striker a ball
come November. That's Van Jones, Barack Obama's right hand man,

(11:26):
telling you it's gonna be a strikeout. I think the
other key is don't forget they were gonna get Bernie
Sanders in twenty sixteen. We can't have a socialist become
our nominee, and they were gonna get him again in
twenty twenty. So they had to scramble and the Shadow

(11:50):
campaign to save the democracy, and they had a cut
of deal for Barack Obama. The Obama Coalition very reluctant
partners with Biden. He's just old Joe to them too.
And in the end you get the Clinton coalition candidate
and Kamala Harris and the Obama candidate. In Biden, he's

(12:14):
still got that ultimate inside ticket against what we know
will be the outsider Donald Trump, even though he's a
former president, and potentially, if he ever gets around to
telling us who his running mate is, maybe an outsider
vice president as well.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
There is that.

Speaker 2 (12:31):
Whole outsider referendum, anti incumbent movement in America that is
also still lingering and working against a very agent Joe Biden.

Speaker 3 (12:44):
This is your Morning Show with Michael del Choma.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
Here's what you need to know your top five stories
of the day. Your President Donald Trump could announce his
VP pick.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Is there is this week? Mark Mayfield has more.

Speaker 8 (13:02):
That's according to NBC News. Previously, Trump andransent he would
announce the pick before or at the Republican Convention next month.
North Dakota Governor Doug Burgham, Ohio Senator jd Vance and
Florida Senator Marco Rubio are reportedly all high on the
list of potential picks. Trump and President Biden will thanks
off in the first twenty twenty four presidential debate in
Atlanta on Thursday.

Speaker 5 (13:23):
I'm Mark Mayfield, any gentleman worth his whares? We'll tell
you ladies first. That could be the strategy for the
presidential debate. Here's Brian Shook Road to the White House
twenty twenty four. The first presidential debate is tomorrow, and
both candidates are focusing on women's issues.

Speaker 9 (13:39):
There is an effort by Democrats to try to win
over some women who normally vote Republican, but because of
the issue of abortion, may be open to being convinced
to vote for Joe Biden.

Speaker 10 (13:51):
Rice political analyst Mark Jones says that former President Trump
will focus on the so called save Women's sports debate.
Last week, he to roll back changes the Biden administration
has made to what is called Title nine. That's the
federal civil rights law preventing sex discrimination in schools. Meantime,
Jones says that President Biden will focus on abortion as

(14:13):
a way to win centrist women in Washington.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
I'm Brian Shook. I know you go to Hooters because
the wings are good. Yeah, but careful. Not all locations
are going to be available. Michael Kasner reports, but you
might want to call first.

Speaker 11 (14:30):
The company cited pressure from current market conditions. No list
was provided, but USA Today reports they found dozens of
restaurants shuttered yesterday in Florida, Texas, Kentucky, and Indiana.

Speaker 1 (14:44):
I'm Michael Kassner. Well, teachers are always giving students grades.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Turn about his fair play, and the students are giving
their schools a B minus for the.

Speaker 1 (14:53):
Second year in a row. Lisa Taylor has more.

Speaker 12 (14:56):
That's according to Gallup and Walton Family Foundation Student Report Card,
which US students from fifth to twelfth grade degrade their schools.
Scores for schools are worse from lower income students, which
the survey defines as those who qualify for free or
reduced lunch. I'm Lisa Taylor, Well Prince.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
Is going to get a star in the Hollywood Walker Fame,
Eisley Brothers, George Strait, Keith, Urban Green Day, just some
of the music acts getting a star on a reason.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
The class of twenty twenty five have up to two years.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
I did not know that you get a window of
two years and you have to set up your acceptance ceremony.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
I thought it was just for actors and whatnot. I
did too.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
Now you got music, you got TV, you got act
I mean, Bill ny the science guy is on the list.
Chris Wallace what I haven't been since nineteen seventy three.
But in nineteen seventy there was a big thrill. There
was Lucille ball right, there was Humphrey Bolguard. I mean
it was just stars. I don't even if we have
stars anywhere, do we sounds like they're hurting for money.

(15:56):
Don't you have to pay to get one of those stars?
Now that I do know, I was thinking of like
the Red Buttons old routine.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
I mean, when you start getting to.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
Molly Shannon, Bill Nye Chris Wallace, Trey Parker, Oral Hirscheiser,
we're hurting, yeah, I mean at that point you could
do the bit, who doesn't have a star on the
Hollywood Walk of Faint, don't we get you a Hollywood Well,
I don't, yeah, I don't know one.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
Never got a star on the Hollywood Walkafing.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
They keep expanding the list, and there's your Class of
twenty twenty five. Hallmark has plans to get the guys
involved in this Christmas. Hallmark and the Kansas City Chiefs
are teaming up for a Christmas movie called Holiday Touchdown,
a Chiefs love Story. It's gonna air as part of
Hallmark's Countdown to Christmas later this year. The movie will
tell the story of a fan whose family of Chief

(16:48):
fans is a front runner for Fan of the Year contest,
and she finds there's a spark between her and the
team's director of fan engagement.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
And the next thing you know, they're engaged.

Speaker 2 (16:57):
Because it's Hallmark and everybody's just a went away from
bumping into the love of their life. And of course
none of this has anything to do with Travis Kelsey.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
Our Taylor Swift.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
The movie will be.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
Filmed in Kansas City this summer, including Arrowhead Stadium with
the Chiefs today Him Michael and your Morning show is
heard on great radio stations across the country like one
oh five, nine twelve fifty w HNZ and Tampa, Florida,
News Radio five seventy wk b N and Youngstown, Ohio
and News Radio one thousand KTOK.

Speaker 1 (17:26):
In Oklahoma City.

Speaker 2 (17:27):
Love to have you listen to us live in the morning,
and of course we're so grateful you came for the podcast.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
Enjoy.

Speaker 2 (17:34):
Former President Donald Trump could announce his v pick while
we're getting very dangerously close to about the time you
would anyway, Squad's minus won after a huge loss by
seventeen points for Jamal Bowman.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
He had a big eye problem and it reared its
ugly head.

Speaker 2 (17:49):
And the draft is tonight for the NBA and the
Atlanta Hawks are first, and trust me, they need it.
And with only one day till the debate, how did
Donald Trump and Joe Biden look in the polls? The
election won't be held today, but if it were, how
do things look and how might the debate impact that?
White House Correspondent John Decker and Attorney's joining us done

(18:09):
from your perspective, how are they looking.

Speaker 13 (18:11):
Well, it defends which poles you look at, And to me,
I always look at the state by state poles. I
don't really pay that much attention to national polls, but
let's reference them. And the national polls have it as
a dead heat right now. If you go to Real
Clear Politics that aggregates all of the major polls that
have been done over the course of the past ten days,

(18:34):
it is tied up. It is within the margin of error.
It is an even race. And that's why this debate
is so important. But if you go to individual state
poles in the battle ground states, Michael, that's where you
see a slight lead for Donald Trump in just about
every battleground state. The margin could be one percent, it

(18:54):
could be four percent, but regardless, it's consistent, and it
has been consistent, regardless of whether the news organization doing
those polls is the New York Times or another entity,
we see the same result come out as it relates
to those battleground state poles.

Speaker 1 (19:11):
Yeah, and you're wise to do that.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
Pennsylvania Trump is up two point eight percent, North Carolina
Trump's up five point eight percent. Nevada Trump's up four percent, Georgia,
Trump is up four percent, Arizona Trump's up five point
six percent, the closest being Michigan. As we would expect,
and this is about the margin in which it went
in twenty sixteen. Trump's up zero point two percent. So
in the swing states, that's beyond the margin of error,

(19:37):
and he's winning all of them. I would think that
the number that matters the most moving forward. And again,
this is a strange election because they're really both kind
of incumbents, But it's the disapproval rating for Joe Biden
and it's sitting at minus fifteen point two percent. Those
are the kind of numbers that usually lead to somebody
being fired. And then the famous from Ronald Reagan days,

(20:00):
the right track, wrong track, and it's minus thirty nine
point six percent. So you got an incumbent president where
America feels like we're going in the wrong direction and
they think he's to blame. These are not good numbers.
It's actually quite frankly surprising. It's so close generically nationwide.

Speaker 13 (20:18):
Well it's so close because of Joe Biden's opponent. It's
Donald Trump, who's a lightning rot, you know, in a
sense that voters react to him. They like him or
they dislike him. And that's the reason why it isn't
even race nationally when you factor in that, you know,
approval disapproval for Donald Trump. He doesn't have an above

(20:42):
water level in terms of approval rating right now either.
So that's the reason why you know, you ask him
poll after poll, are you satisfied with this rematch? And
you see most voters say no, I'm not satisfied with
this rematch at which we had different choices. But these
are the choices that we have. There will be no
one else. The major party candidates will be Joe Biden

(21:04):
for the Democrats and Donald Trump for Republicans.

Speaker 1 (21:07):
Or so it appears.

Speaker 2 (21:08):
But now there is a third party candidate who's not
being allowed to come, and that's RFK Junior. He put
out a piece and I want to run this by you.
These are all the firsts that represent the CNN debate
tomorrow night. First time in American history that a general
election debate has been owned and controlled by a for

(21:28):
profit corporation. That's a first first time since the inaugural
presidential debate nineteen sixty between John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon.
We're not a single voter will be present at the debate,
earliest in a presidential election year in history, and the
first time prior to the DNC and RNC convention, first
presidential debate since nineteen eighty eight that the Commission on

(21:50):
Presidential Debates has not sponsored first ever debate between a
sitting president and a former sitting president and a matchup
of two of the oldest candidates in history.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
That's a lot of firsts.

Speaker 13 (22:03):
It is a lot of firsts. But that's what we have.
And you know, if you're Robert Kennedy and you're complaining
about that, you know I have a one sentence answer
for that, and that's boohoo. I mean, that's what you've
been dealt with, mister Kennedy.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
Look, he may benefit.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
Donald Trump benefited from not being in the I mean,
if they both look bad and they both look old,
he'll be glad he's not there, especially with a voice
that doesn't sound as marketable as most of Americans would
want a voice to sound, so it could.

Speaker 13 (22:33):
Play in his favorite on more ballots, Michael, you know,
he's only on ten ballots as things stand right now.
That clearly is not enough to win the White House.
In twenty twenty four, he's got some time.

Speaker 4 (22:44):
To do it.

Speaker 13 (22:46):
But will he be on all fifty state ballots. I
don't think so. Unlike Ross Bureau, who was and who
you know, garnered nineteen percent of the popular vote in
nineteen ninety two, so you know, those are all things
that you also have to factor. That was a tremendous
showing by him. But as we've mentioned before, he gets

(23:06):
nineteen percent of the vote and that translates into zero
Electoral College votes. And that's why, you know, being a
third party candidate is so difficult if your goal is
to win the president.

Speaker 1 (23:16):
If it's to.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
Win, but I don't have to tell you Minnesota, with
a streak of independence throughout its history, and that's getting
kind of close in the polls. He could play a
role in handing Minnesota to Donald Trump. We say the
same thing about Michigan and Wisconsin.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
Right, I will say this, absolutely, he's.

Speaker 2 (23:33):
Not going to be at the debate, but he's still
there because if those two look old, and if those
two do poorly, people are going to shop elsewhere. And
we know there's a proclivity because we began with that
with seventy percent, not really wanting this rematch, So that'll
be very interesting to play up. What about in your opinion,
because you know you're also a White House correspondent. There's
a lot on the line too on for CNN on

(23:54):
this and how they perform.

Speaker 13 (23:57):
Oh, there is absolutely People will judge the moderators, see
how they do, to see if they're fair and even
handed in their approach to Donald Trump and Joe Biden.
If there's a lot of fact checking for things that
Donald Trump says, is there a similar amount of fact
checking for, you know, things that the president says President

(24:18):
Biden says. So yes, I think that they have to
be aware of that. I think they are aware of
that their reputations are on the line. You think back
to the first presidential debate in the twenty twenty election cycle.
The moderator was Chris Wallace at the time, he was
with Fox and his reputation was, you know, I think
really damaged by the way he handled that particular debate

(24:39):
and how it went off the rail. So that's another
thing that we'll be watching on Thursday.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
Well, how about Megan Kelly when she took on Donald
Trump and the war on women. You know, some could
say that started the slow road to Megan Kelly leaving Fox, which,
by the way, all worked out well for her. She
had to leave Fox, had to go to NBC. It
can't go from Fox to NBC. Doesn't work, and it didn't.
But now she's doing great. I mean, I think she's

(25:04):
one of the few that is really being successful, not
attached to a network and just use streaming and on
her own. But that was that was a huge debate
moment when she took on Donald Trump. She alienated and
caused a lot of troubles at Fox, no question.

Speaker 13 (25:20):
Well, yeah, I was at Fox at the time. I
can tell you all about that. We could have a
bit separate conversation all about that, Michael, for sure. But
remember that was a primary debate. It was of course
general election debate when that happened.

Speaker 1 (25:33):
You've been everywhere.

Speaker 2 (25:34):
Why are you successful and I'm such a failure? Constant
reminders one of my favorites. That's your White House correspondent
and attorney John Decker. Thanks for joining us.

Speaker 4 (25:43):
Good morning all right.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
By the way, speaking of fact checking, I meant to
bring this up yesterday. I never got to it.

Speaker 4 (25:50):
But Steve the.

Speaker 2 (25:54):
Sean Spizer was on an interview and they brought up
this topic. The fact checking website Snopes finally declared it
was false that former President Donald Trump called the Charlottesville
protesters very fine people. Not everybody, And again, we live
in a matrix. But any reasonable person who hasn't had

(26:18):
their body invaded by the body's nature of matrix knows
that the President was making the point. Look, when it
comes to these statues, when it comes to how we
view Civil War time, they're good people on both sides.
He wasn't even talking about those that were misbehaving that day. Look,

(26:41):
I would make a statement when it comes to race,
going back to Martin Luther King Junior, good people on
both sides. Some got it really right, some got it
really wrong. That in no way is referencing any of
what Black Lives Matter Antifa did in any given city
at any given time. But what makes this so profoundly interesting,

(27:06):
don't forget it was the narrativised mischaracterization of what Trump
said concerning Charlottesville that, according to Joe Biden, is the
very reason he decided to run and now as he's
running for reelection, Snopes anyway finally comes out and goes, yeah,

(27:26):
that was on there.

Speaker 1 (27:27):
Hey, what next?

Speaker 2 (27:27):
He may come clean on COVID and other things. Hi,
my name is Burn Aaron, and my morning show is
Your morning show is Michael del Jorno. What are the
odds of Joe Biden telling Donald Trump to shut up?
Somebody's probably gonna wager on that.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
I'm looking for that.

Speaker 5 (27:49):
Let's see which kind of would audibly raise their voice.

Speaker 7 (27:52):
First Trumpet minus one forty, Joe Biden at minus are
plus one hundred.

Speaker 5 (27:57):
Joe Biden's miss one hundred, Joe Biden plus one hundred.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
That means that Trump's more likely to yell with Biden.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
See wouldink it'd be the other way around, especially Donald
Trump keeps us cool. Then they had one of the
will shoutouts on this stuff. Yeah, people bet everything. America's
got a debt problem and America's got a gambling problem,
and they could be related. Fifty two minutes after the hour,
eight minutes to be to work on time for those
of you on the East Coast, probably about eight minutes

(28:25):
to get out of the house in the Central time zone.
Thanks for waking up with your morning show. The squad
is minus one. A huge loss for Jamal Bowman in
New York. The Supreme Court should be issuing more opinions
this week, starting today, and there is at least one
poll that shows President Biden making some gains with independent voters.

Speaker 1 (28:46):
And here's an interesting one.

Speaker 2 (28:47):
The Surgeon General has declared firearm violence a public health crisis.
Hmm what prompted that announcement? Your morning show national correspondent
Rory O'Neil is here with the sales. Good morning, Rory,
Good morning Michael. Happy Wednesday to you as well, and
also with you all right, So you know, mental.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
Illness can lead to gun violence.

Speaker 2 (29:13):
Because people commit suicide or as we're prone to do now,
we like to take others out with us in mass shootings.

Speaker 1 (29:19):
I don't know if it's the gun itself.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
So did the Surgeon General specify that it's not just
the firearm but evil mental illness and loneliness and a
lot of other things along with it, because that's where
probably the warning belongs.

Speaker 14 (29:32):
Well, right, then when you bring it into the mental
health discussion, you're in his wheelhouse. So yes, mental health
is a big part of this mental health action and
support includes increasing access to affordable, high quality mental health
care and enhancing safety measures. And what they called evidence
based violence prevention efforts in learning settings. I think that's
a fantasy way of saying gun safety in schools.

Speaker 2 (29:55):
Because the number one cause of death with firearms is
still accident, right, Well, I.

Speaker 4 (30:00):
Wouldn't say number one es to be maybe it's fallen.

Speaker 14 (30:04):
Well, we know that the number one cause of death
now for teenagers and juveniles, the number one cause of
death is gun violence. For juveniles, that is more than
car accidents. So that's something else that precipitated the Surgeon
General to come up with this.

Speaker 4 (30:19):
And also the recent rise in mass shooting.

Speaker 14 (30:22):
You know, we saw them fall off during the pandemic,
but they started to come back in the past, but
in twenty twenty two and twenty three.

Speaker 4 (30:29):
So those are some of the other issues he's trying
to address.

Speaker 14 (30:32):
And yes there is the old fashioned stuff is there
as well, universal background checks, requiring secure firearm storage, including
child access prevention systems, and limiting large capacity magazines and
banning assault weapons for people for civilians.

Speaker 2 (30:50):
This is again I'm very pro Second Amendment, but this
isn't about having a political conversation. We do kind of
live in a matrix now where we have people with
very strong very are extreme polarized views, and they just
won't budge, They won't even have conversation, and they certainly
won't look at facts and have debate. How does that
affect all this? And do we really think a Surgeon

(31:11):
General declaration is going to change that? Because you just
can't get people to discuss the abandonment of absolute truth,
the abandonment of God, that's our ability to self govern,
to abandon the social dilemma that has created a lot
of this loneliness that leads to depression, that leads to suicide,
or a lot of this hate that we see promoted

(31:32):
in narratives of media and movies, and we go back
to the old the violence in video games, because it
really is all of the above that's the problem.

Speaker 4 (31:42):
Right.

Speaker 14 (31:42):
But that's also why I think the Surgeon General is saying,
let my office play a part in this in that
you know, how many times when did you ever think
you'd wear a seat belt when you're growing up as
a kid, what would you wear that for? And now
how do you leave the do you start the car
without your seatbelt on? Or how about corrects? Yeah, they
put that stupid warning on there that we ignored, but

(32:03):
sixty years later, you know, we're down to a fraction
of the number of people picking up cigarettes. So perhaps
some of these suggestions and getting in there with either
mental health response in order to try to bring down
suicide numbers can have a long term effect.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
I think we determined you were slightly younger than me,
I think, but anyway, roughly the same age.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
It's hard when you were ever always got it top me,
don't you. Well that must mean I'm wiser. No, you're
the know it all. Anyway, make a long story short.

Speaker 2 (32:32):
You know, you watch all those old movies and my
son and I play a very disrespectful, silly game, but
he loves to listening to the forties channel, in the
fifties channel, and then we do you think they're dead
or alive? And we try to guess when they died
and not shockingly, most of them died of lung cancer,
if not automobile or playing accidents. But but what's interesting,

(32:52):
You know, there was a whole generation that walked around smoking.
They really weren't aware of how deadly it was, especially
playing well in their homes, secondhand smoke, so on and
so forth. But you know, we take that for granted today,
like today you'd say, well, anybody that dies in lung
cancer after smoking fifty years, well, you know you did
it to yourself. But back then I don't think they
knew or nobody talked about it. So that was a

(33:14):
big moment when they started banning it in television ads,
banning it in magazine ads, and then put the warnings
on the cigarettes. The question is can America and a
matrix decide on what the warning should be, because it's
not the gun as much, or the rope or the
you know, the revolver or anything else. It's more about
what's going on to missus Plum's head in the conservatory.

Speaker 1 (33:35):
Said Colonel Mustard, said Colonel, he was always my favorite too.

Speaker 2 (33:40):
Roy o'n Neil's gonna be back up. We're gonna talk
next hour. If you're traveling this week, the TSA is
predicting that this Thursday will be the busiest by the way,
fourth of tomorrow. This is the It doesn't happen often,
but force suchu lies on a Thursday, and then many
are getting Friday.

Speaker 1 (33:56):
Off as well.

Speaker 2 (33:57):
I think we are at iHeart, which is a Thursday
and a Friday, which creates a four day weekend. But
I would have thought that had been more for next week, unless,
of course, they took Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday off than they
might leave early.

Speaker 4 (34:09):
But this would have been right at all. In my
next session with

Speaker 3 (34:14):
