But in the meantime, enjoy the podcast two.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
Three starting your morning off right, A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding because we're in the st Yes.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
He is your morning show with Michael Bill Jordan. I
don't know about you, but there's no place I'd rather
be right now than here. The problem is, let's define here.
Oh boy, I keep falling in love with you, falling
in law. I think I'm going to move to Saint

(00:52):
Louis and I'm going to become a six hundred pound
obese man that just lives on a actress in the
middle of the family room and has all of the
food from the hill just delivered to my home. So
we went to Mama's the night before last. That's they's
still the meatball King. That's the best meatball outside of

(01:14):
my grandmother. Mama's is an Italian restaurant. Correct. The Hill
is like the little Italy Okay, and it's you know,
it's one of the few that are still intact. I'm
telling you this neighborhood, I could go put Ike for president,
signs up in the yard, and you could film a
nineteen fifty six movie. It's just kid Frozen in time
is beautiful. Wow. And every ready there's Italian grocery store.

(01:38):
They got the Vaulpi they have one. Start's just slammy.
Imagine if I lived in that neighborhood. How there I
gotta go walk scout, I come home. I got a
salami under my arm, a bacca end of my pants,
a couple of loaves of bread. So last night we
went to g and Toni's and I got to meet Tony.

(02:00):
He's still there. He comes out with his broken English,
talks to you. Oh wow. I had a spadini, which
is kind of a stuffed rolled with broccoli and it's
kind of like a cream sauce. I just never chicken.
Did you ever get excited about chicken? Nobody gets excited
about chicken. Well, I sometimes feel sorry for chickens, Like

(02:23):
I'm looking at him like, and I'm thinking, boy, this
party died for this. You know I can't. I gotta
eat him, right, They say they're committed. That's the difference
some an old Joe vigism. But I gotta tell you,
I've never had anything so delicious in my life. And
I wasn't even gonna I was trying to behave. I
was just gonna, like pick a little bit because I've
been eating so much. And we were reading with bart Imman,

(02:45):
who's like the the the king of air conditioning in
Saint Louis. This guy was just a wonderful human being
and we're just laughing, talking telling stories. And then I said, well,
I gotta go back and get to bed. He goes, no, no, no,
And so he turns to the Tony goes, I want
you to bring him out a spadeen. So next thing,
you know, and they come on. They're huge, and so

(03:06):
I take one to put my sideplate, and he goes, no,
that's an order right there, both of them. I said,
like a picture two giant. I could never eat that,
do you know? I finished boats what is a spadini?
It's just all right, So imagine a chicken breast is
kind of flattened out. Okay, then it's it's stuffed and
it's like a broccoli and cream kind of sauce. And

(03:28):
then they roll it and then it looks when it arrives,
it looks like a biscuit kind of a thing. But
then you cut into it, you realize, oh, this is
stuffed chicken. You have me a biscuit. I ate both
and some meat balls and then you grab the bread.
Oh so anyway, greetings from the low where I have
fallen in love with my people on the hill. We're

(03:51):
broadcasting live all week from one O four nine the
Patriot in Saint Louis. What a great staff it is here,
What a great time we're having. And there's no place
I would rather be than you this morning making sense
of this day. If you're just waking up a new poll,
this is you know. The theme for today is a
manufactured narrative. You are falling for a Hollywood production right now. Now,

(04:14):
I will tell you they do production well. I think
sooner or later, reality might break out in this The
lights may come on in the theater. But in the
meantime and we went, we broke down. I think it
was was it Friday of last week, Jeffrey, we broke
down the sugar high and what you find is, even

(04:35):
though in some of these swing states the race is
certainly tightened, all Kamala Harris and its illusion represents is
what Joe Biden was at his best. And it looks
like so much more because once we saw it. By
the way, that that's another I'm interrupting myself, but that
was another great story. Today. Suddenly, now that Joe Biden

(04:55):
is proven senile and has been shuffled off stage left
in an act of democracy, naturally, now suddenly everybody's finding
the documents. You know, remember from that interview that proved
he with senile? Yeah, oh yeah, welcome to you now.
And Hollywood warned us about this years ago with Weekend
at Bernie's Well or Dave the movie. Dave is right,

(05:20):
you know, it's that's a whole other, ladies and gentlemen.
I'm about to officially proclaim it. This is an a
D D Thursday. I'm all over the place. You're probing,
you're probing my attention deficit disorder. No, but when you
think about nine to eleven, that was executive decision. This

(05:40):
whole thing with Joe Biden has been Dave. Sometimes I'm
one of life copies movies. But anyway, so all we
really saw in that polling, when we really broke it
down was Kamala Harris back to so what does that
tell you? Well, it tells you that when Democrats are
at whatever energy level they're they're here because keep in mind,
if the energy levels are equal, and energy and enthusiasm

(06:06):
impacts turnout, because it really doesn't matter what poles say,
it matters who early votes, mail in votes, and turns out.
The Republicans throughout history have been terrible at early voting.
Republican voters love and honor and respect the tradition of
election day. And I got to raise my hand and

(06:27):
tell you I'm so guilty of that. Me and my wife,
that's a big deal. We go at lunch, we go vote.
It's something and now we get to do it with
our kids. But the Democrats have a couple of advantages. One,
on election day now in twenty twenty, there was a

(06:49):
shadow campaign and a harvesting of votes and mail in votes,
probably a lot of fraud quite frankly, but normally to
winning fair and square, they start with a huge lead
because they really press early voting and Republicans show up,
but by and large, if enthusiasm is the same, Democrats

(07:09):
win every time. Why there are more Democrats than Republicans.
And for the longest time we used to talk about, well,
there is the Democrats and the Republicans, and you know
they're going to vote with party loyalty. But sometimes one
side's more enthusiastic and energized than the other, and that's
how we'll predict it. Sometimes it's so close we can't predict,

(07:32):
so we say, well, the independent vote. And it's always
been about swing states and really swing voters in swing states.
But by and large, the Democrats, you know, they were
meh on Biden and then they were scared to death
at what they saw on that debate night, which is

(07:55):
really ridiculous, right, because if that was your first time
noticing Joe Biden has a cognitive declining, probably in a
in a later stage of dementia, then you just haven't
been very honest with yourself. That shouldn't have been a
shocking night, and the way the media portrayed it is shocking. Well,

(08:17):
then they haven't been honest with you and me and us.
That was all a part of this Hollywood illusion that
they've created. And so you know, happy days are here
again with Kama. But it's still neck and neck. So
one of the stories you're gonna hear all day new poll,
Kamala Harris is leading or tied with Donald Trump in
all but one swing state, and there's a lot to play.

(08:45):
I don't know the whole other conversation, the way she's
Kamala chameleon, and all the things that she and Joe
Biden have sold you and done and led has failed.
So now all of a sudden, she's gonna try to
say I had nothing to do with that. This is
the new me. I'm for not taxing waiters and waitresses.
I'm for the She's gonna lay out an economic plan finally,

(09:08):
and we talked about this yesterday. Isn't that breathtaking? We
talk about the death of journalism that doesn't exist. You
just have narratives, and then we get on social media
and we're narrative repeaters. We're not news consumption consumers, and
they're not even news producers. Narrative and narrative repeating. Death
of journalism, How about the death of the primary system.

(09:33):
It died right before your eyes this year Democrats voted
in primaries all year long. Joe Biden secured the nomination,
and the media and the cabal that's really running the
Democrat Party and the administration just took it away from
him and handed it to her. She is finally going

(09:55):
to have an economic speech, and she is the presumptive
nominee heading to a convention. In a way well, because
normally you have a long primary with debates, with interviews,
with rallies and appearances, then you win primary after primary.

(10:17):
I mean, by the time you are the presumptive nominee,
not only do we know what you stand for, we
clearly celebrate it and choose it. Not this year, it's
August fifteenth. First of all, they put a debate together
conveniently in June. Why would you have a presidential debate

(10:37):
before either convention, because you're orchestrating the reveal of Joe
Biden with dementia so you can get rid of him,
have time to build up enthusiasm and momentum for the
one you were inserting all along, and then you're going
to head to the convention. She's finally gonna give your
economic vision tomorrow. The death of the primary process, so

(11:03):
we live in crazy strange times. Just get up, accept that,
let's kind of paddle our way through this rapid together.
Donald Trump laid out his economic plans. And for those
of you that are saying Donald prompt need to get
back on topic, well he did yesterday, Open wide for
breakfast this morning, you'll have to find something else to

(11:24):
kick him around over, Hunter Biden. You know, if if
you are you know, known by the company you keep,
which is, by the way, not just your grandmother that
used to say that that's biblical, you can learn a
lot about it defended by the attorneys they choose. You know, well,
your attorney's the one that fought for the Menendez brothers.
You've probably been up to no good and that's what

(11:46):
unter Biden has chosen. Efforts to reach a ceasefire in
the Gaza continue to intensify. And I never watched it
growing up, but Lost in Space we could do a
new sequel, Stuck in Space. That's a two astronauts. Are
they ever gonna get home? We'll have more on that,
And you might want to go to your junk drawer
and dig out an old mask, because the Trusted World

(12:08):
Health Organization is declaring an mpox Global public health emergency.
In fact, I think what we ought to do is
change election laws and go ahead and go to all
mail in voting. Well pretty so, you don't think they
would pull a COVID again, do you? And for those
of you that are into escape a little, a little
NFL football, today, we're going to have the Philadelphia Eagles

(12:33):
traveling to New England to take on the Patriots.

Speaker 2 (12:36):

The potential for an attack on Israel bai Iran comes
after the country vowed to avenge the deaths of Hesbalah
and Hamas. Finally, Sa Taylor, Well.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
If you can learn a lot about somebody by the
company they keep by, guess you can tell a lot
by the lawyers. Are defendant hires Hunter Biden, revealing a
lot with his hire, Mark Mayfield fills us in.

Trying to avoid paying over one million dollars in taxes.
The tax Fronali is set to start September the fifth
in Los Angeles. The New York Times is reporting that
Biden asked the US embassy in Italy for help to
land a business deal while his father was Vice president,
but it's not clear if it's connected to his tax case.
Hunter Biden was found guilty on federal gun charges a
couple of months ago and is awaiting sentencing.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
I'm Mark Mayfield. Oh so you want Donald Trump to
get back on message, right, Well, he did. He laid
out his plans for the economy if elected to the
White House in November. Tammy Trehila reports during a.

Speaker 6 (14:52):
Rally in Nashville, North Carolina, Trump set hill sign an
executive order directing his cabinet to take action to bring
down inflation and consumer crisis in the first one hundred
days of his presidency. He said he'd also target energy
and electricity prices.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
We intend to slash prices by half within twelve months,
at a maximum eighteen months.

Speaker 5 (15:12):
And if it doesn't work out, you say, oh, well,
I voted for him.

Speaker 6 (15:15):
The former president spent much of his speech focusing on
his political rival Kamala Harris, accusing her of decimating the
middle class with radical liberal policies from sappearance comes as
Harris is set to unveil her economic policies in North
Carolina on Friday. I'm Tammy TRHEO.

Speaker 1 (15:31):

the junk drawer. The World World Health Organization is here
with your scare of the day, MPOX, a global public
health emergency. Jacob says more.

cases of IMPOCS and five hundred deaths have been reported.
IMPOCS is a viral disease that can spread easily among people,
causing flu like symptoms and lesions. Most cases are mild,
but it can kill. Jody Jacobs, New York.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
In sports, the Eagles and the Patriots tonight for Thursday

you listen every weekday morning to your Morning show Live.

(16:20):
Even take us along with you on the drive to work.
We can be heard on great radio stations like one
oh four ninth The Patriot in Saint Louis, Our Talk
Radio ninety eight point three and fifteen ten WLAC and
Nashville and News Talk five fifty k f YI and Phoenix, Arizona.
Love to be a part of your morning routine. But
we're always grateful you're here. Now enjoyed the podcast. Remember
it's your morning show. How could we possibly have your

(16:43):
morning Well, there is a way for me to do
it using the talk bag button, but that's another story.
How can we have your morning show without your voice?
Three ways to get a hold of us. Pick up
the phone toll free one eight hundred and six eight
eight ninety five twenty two, eight hundred six eight eight
ninety five twenty two. There's good old fashioned email Michael
D iHeartMedia dot com. And then don't forget. If you're
listening on the iHeartRadio app, there's a little microphone that's

(17:05):
a talkback button. Hit it you can leave a message,
Hit send, We get it. We can share it with
the class. A lot of people like to record their
I'm so and so from such and such, and my
morning show is your morning show liner there as well.
And that's not to sell me. That's for you to
introduce yourself to others here at America's kitchen table. How

(17:26):
you anyway? Yeah, thank you, not him, by the way,
thanks for waking up and listening to your morning show.
I'm Michael del Jorna. Well, I got two kind of stories.
And this is gonna sound so typical talk show host guy.
All right, let's get up. Let's just bash Kamala Harris
this morning in the divided stage of America. They lather
you up, let me get you, you know, outraged. But

(17:51):
there is this running trend of come come, come, coma
coma come, and everybody is kind of sensing. You know,
how do you get away with that? I mean, when
next you're for smaller government? What next you're for peace
their strength? And you think it's just one early copy

(18:16):
over taxing tips, which you know for the right, you're
just copying Trump for the left, I don't care. That
makes me like her even more. And then if you
ever knock on someone's door, you do realize that her
and Joe and she cast a deciding vote, are the

(18:39):
ones that gave eighty billion dollars to the irs to
harass people who aren't reporting their tips. They won't care,
they'll move right on. At some point we got to
ask the question, is is this a smart tactic? And
what's coming in this speech on Friday more of the same.

(19:02):
Is she going to be for lower taxes, cutting spending,
addressing inflation and restoring the account and the course you're
going to look at yourself and say, well, why the
heck didn't you guys do that for three years? And
there's something so traditional about this in two senses. One,

(19:26):
politicians always create the problem and then they want to
be the hero for solving it when they could have
never created it in the first place. But there was
an old traditional way you ran for president, and that

(19:46):
is in the primary, you run to your base. So
if your party leans left, you go way left in
the primary, and then once you get in the general election,
then you come back to center. That kind of stopped
in the twenty four hour news cycle because you couldn't
get away with it. Wait a minute, just a month
ago you were saying this. Now you're flip flopping. And

(20:07):
there was a time where flip flopping was political death.
Now it happens everybody day and nobody even cares the
movie campaign. I think it's campaign, isn't it the one
with Will Ferrell and Zach Galifanakis. Oh yeah, the campaign. Yeah,
the campaign. I mean it's brilliant from this standpoint, dan Aykroyd,

(20:28):
why do I feel a need to get all the
cast in there? The premise is? I mean, you can
picture the writers when they got the idea right. They're
sitting in a bar having a couple of beers, and
I bet one of them looked to the other and say,
what do you got to do to be unelectable anymore?
That's a legitimate question of the day. What on earth
does a politician have to do to be unelectable? They

(20:52):
don't leave office till the corner arrives. I guess for
Joe Biden. But even then he looked like somebody a
severe case in the memory care section of a nursing home.
But he's still president. It was so dangerous he simply

(21:16):
cannot run for four more years, but not so dangerous
that we have a war breaking out in the Middle East,
a war with Russia and Ukraine, and he's still commander
in chief. If he can't find a thought, you think
he can find the code?

Speaker 3 (21:32):
What is something to do?

Speaker 1 (21:33):
And that's what the movie Campaign addresses the congressman character
played by Will Ferrell, and it's hilarious. He punches a dog,
he punches a baby, He sleeps with his opponent's wife.
It gets caught on film. He puts it in his
television ad what does somebody have to do to not
be elected? But by and large it used to be

(21:56):
if you flip flop, that was you know, my gosh.
Bush lost because he said, read my lips, no new taxes,
and then he proposed to tax increase. Bill Clinton had
oral sex in the oval office. No problem. I mean,
you know, at some point you got to look in
the mirror to find the real problem in America. But
I digress that whole traditional Okay, in this case, it's

(22:19):
got a new twist right because Kamala Harris governed far
left and now is going to attempt to come back
to the center in this fictitious, narrativized fake illusion. Will
it work. We're gonna ask David Zanati about that coming

(22:40):
up in about thirty minutes. This is my favorite story
and I got to tell you it's it's made favored
by who's doing it. You know when you the media
is clearly biased to the left. I am, by the way.
My whole worldview is shape by God's word and his

(23:03):
son and his spirit. So I got news for you.
I'm biased. I am capable of giving you all the
sides and letting you decide. But I personally am biased.
The difference is I'm not presenting myself as anything other
than that. They want you to think they're the fact checker.
They're the source of record, They're the who, what, where, when,

(23:27):
and why only, and it's not it's not news. I
could do any story for you and show you this
is not news the entire I don't read newspapers anymore,
and probably you don't either. But everything when you bought
a newspaper now should be under the label of the
opinion section. That used to be one page in the
old days. That's how much the rest of it in

(23:49):
the front page is not really news.

Speaker 8 (23:52):
Now.

Speaker 1 (23:52):
There are different players. The problem is you have really
there's six, but there's really three major corporations, and they're
at the cabal tape. Trust me. With this administrative state,
centralized government, and some of course, with the desire to
have a global governance, that we take a sheepful place
at the table, and so that helps them all stand

(24:15):
a message. And then there's some that are just more influential,
and so we talk about the Associated Press. That's influential
because all the others take their cues from them and
their marching orders from them. Same is true with Washington Post,
same is true with The Atlantic especially. But I find
this strange because Axios is one of those far left

(24:37):
biased sites and this is their lead story with a
picture that says it all all right. Have you ever
been scrolling on Facebook and you think something's a news story?
Next thing you know, you're like, what the heck is this?

Speaker 8 (24:55):
What is this doing?

Speaker 1 (24:55):
We're's this trying to send me? Then you go back
and go, oh, it says in small letters google a Okay.
Then that's a practice that is done, but not by candidates.
So what you're going to see coming up at six
oh five, it looks like it's an AP story, or

(25:16):
it looks like it's a Reuter's story, and it's you know,
it's headlines. Vice President Harris's economic vision lower costs and
higher wages. Tim Walls's military service, a twenty four year
career in the National guard Harris will lower the cost
of healthcare. Kamala is here bringing joy back to politics.

(25:38):
Inflation is down. Yeah, and it looks like news story
there and if you look closely, it's as sponsored. And
Axios says the Harris campaign has been editing news headlines
and descriptions within Google search ads that make it appear
as if The Guardian, Reuters, CBS News and other major
publishers are on her side. Axios has found why does

(25:58):
it matter, Oh, it's I'm in practice in the commercial
advertising world that doesn't violate Google's policies, but the ads
mimic real news results for searches close enough that they
have outlets caught off guard. Kamala Harris has entered the
space if literally fake news in this fake unity, completely

(26:24):
Hollywood created illusion of a candidate and candidacy. Now, I
don't know if it's a movie you go to the
box office to watch. But the real question is can
they go all the way and pull this off to
an election victory? Is this shadow campaign to gosh, I

(26:50):
get anything to just go back to it's about us,
focused on the issues, solving problems together and we go
vote on paper I mean, I feel like I am
your tour, you know, guide through wild white rapids in
a canoe to make sense of all of this. So

(27:14):
AI adding crowds to TARMACX, that's nothing compared to what
they're up to on Google. This is who they are.
God help us if we don't see through it.

Speaker 8 (27:28):
Right.

Speaker 6 (27:28):
This is Jimmy Bourne.

Speaker 3 (27:29):
My Morning show is your Morning Show with Michael del Jorno.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
Here's an inconvenient headline of the day that I don't
think many will share with you. You know, I used
to say, behind every headline is a story, and then
behind every story there's so much to talk about. This
would fall under that or the headline. Just as it
all sudden, Department of Justice suddenly locates Biden biography transcript

(27:55):
created by Robert Urr. What do you think the odds
are they would have lowed that if they hadn't run
Joe Biden off? Probably not very good, right. Top five
stories of the day Waking up. The US remains on
high alert for a potential Iranian attack. In Israel, Lisa

(28:17):
Taylor has more.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
His efforts to reach a ceasefire and Gaza are intensifying,
with formal negotiations said to take place Thursday. There are
reports Hamas will not be taking part in the ceasefire talks.
Raf Sanchez reports from Tel Aviv.

Speaker 4 (28:29):
A diplomat briefed on these talks, says Katar. Each of
the United States will meet with Israel, and then those
two Arab states will go and meet with the Hamas
side separately at a date to be determined.

Speaker 3 (28:41):
The potential for an attack on Israel Bi Iran comes
after the country vowed to avenge the deaths of Hesbalah
and Hamas leaders.

Speaker 1 (28:47):
Final Lisa Taylor Well Axios acknowledges that the Harris camp
is doing fake news on Google. Former President Donald Trump
is addressing the use of AI by her camp, Tammy
Trihila reports.

Speaker 6 (29:01):
While taking questions after casting his early ballot in Florida
state primary, Trump was asked about the AI claim, well,
I can't say.

Speaker 4 (29:09):
What was there, who was there.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
I can only tell you about ours. We have the
biggest crowds ever in the history of politics.

Speaker 6 (29:14):
Over the weekend, Trump shared a picture from Harris's rally
at a Detroit airport, saying her campaign aied it. Harris
campaign responded on truth social by posting a video of
Harris arriving at the airport and being greeted by a
large crowd. I'm Tammy TRHEO.

Speaker 1 (29:28):
Congressman Steady Hoyer, one of the longest members Democrats of Congress,
recovering from a stroke. Michael Kasner reports.

Speaker 9 (29:34):
His office said Tuesday that Hoyer experienced a mild strokes
Sunday night, and he's reportedly responding well to treatment. They
say the former House Majority leader has no lingering symptoms
and expects to resume his normal schedule next week. Eighty
five year old Hoyer is the longest serving Democrat in
the House, having served Maryland's fifth congressional district since nineteen

(29:56):
eighty one.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
I'm Michael Cassner. Today is National Tattoo Removal Day. Pre
Tennis tells you it's a real thing.

Speaker 10 (30:04):
Tattoo Removal Day comes exactly thirty days after National Tattoo Day,
and it's not a coincidence. WebMD says that month long
wait is for the skin to heal, and if you
remove one sooner, you risk scarring. An incre attention laser
tattoo removal says the average tattoo costs about one hundred bucks,
removal about seven hundred. Study by Pew Research Center says

(30:26):
twenty one percent of people with tattoos, I've had at
least one removed.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
I'm pre tennis, no tattoos. Aaron Real is joining us. Aaron,
do you have any tattoos that you would like to
do Today's day? I've never met. I just don't. It's never.
Even my daughter got one. I wasn't really pleased. It's
a cross and it's a beautiful kind of cross ound
of wrist, but I was like, my first thought was, uh, great,
we got to go with a long sleeve wedding gown now.

(30:51):
But I know, I just I have never had the
urge or desire, and I guess somewhere I have a
neuroassociation with how bad it's in a look when I'm
eighty years old and sagging, I just never I.

Speaker 8 (31:03):
Agree with you. Yeah, we're I think we're like in
the minority, though, no, like I I actually so, I'm
a millennial. So I obviously had my belly button pierced
at one point and I'm like, why did I do that?
And now I'm older and I'm like, yeah, no, it
never it never goes well, It never goes well.

Speaker 1 (31:18):
I was down with a friend in Tampa Eboor City
owned three restaurants. Joe Biglely Rola, and you know, he
was doing business during the day and I just had
like five hours to kill and I was bored, and
I thought, you know what, I'm gonna maybe go get
a tattoo, something that represents my three children. So I'm
talking to one of the guys that works there, and
he goes, oh, yeah, they're right next door. You know,

(31:38):
you might want to have a couple of drinks first.
It kind of hurts a little bit, but you know,
then you'll get a big giant scab and then eventually
from all the blood and then the scab will peel
off and there's your tattoo. Man, nothing too And I thought, well,
that sounds like it hurts that I didn't do it.
I think that was the final decision. And I'll bet
it hurts depending on where it is, Oh.

Speaker 8 (31:56):
For sure, for sure. All right, So what's what's I
bet get move hurts too?

Speaker 1 (32:01):
Well, yeah, I would think even I don't even know
you could. But all right, so pumpkin spice season. That
seems odd for August.

Speaker 8 (32:11):
It does, and we did this every year the summer
ween creep. The October pumpkin spice season. It comes in
earlier and earlier, and you want to know, whine Michael,
it's a billion dollar industry. I'm not choking.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
This is incredible pumpkin spice market.

Speaker 8 (32:25):
Yes, it's valued at one point one billion out of
twenty twenty three. It is on pace to hit two
point four billion by twenty thirty one. This is according
to a report by Coherent Market Insight. They look at
like a kind of different consumer products. And also it's
not obviously it's food. It's popular among millennials, among gen zers.

(32:46):
The market's driven by like this kind of changing consumer
preference since three when it was actually originally introduced by Starbucks.
Yes that's who first put it at. But long story short,
it can reduce stress and anxiety. It has these like
it's and allspice and cinnamon and all of these things
that apparently people love. And yeah, it is a serious

(33:06):
money maker, which is why we see it in early
August now. But I have a theory that it ends
too early, like by Thanksgiving they're rustrating Christmas. I'm like, no, no, no,
this is like peak pumpkin spice season, Like this is
what I want.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
To come well, Aaron, I don't have to tell you.
The way this campaign season going, we could all use
a little pumpkin spice or a dispensary nearby when you
come back. I want to crunch all these numbers from yesterday,
because we saw unemployment tick up, we saw inflation kind
of hold steady, and I'm kind of wondering what that
means for all of us out here trying to survive
and afford all this bad decision making. We're all in

(33:39):
this together. This is your Morning Show with Michaelpenhild Joino
