Enjoyed the podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Two three starting your morning off right, A new way
of talk, a new way of understanding, because we're in this.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
To get This is your morning show with Michael O'Dell
John six minutes after the hour and welcome. Oh a
time man. I came down from space.

Speaker 4 (00:37):

My home is Mars and the trip is long, Bud.
You're at the city and this birthday song, Yo, Michael, birthday,
You're cool. All right, it's going downhill, you know.

The weird al was okay, Yeah, we ran out of money,

August the thirtieth, twenty twenty four, in the start of
for most A three Day, Labor Day, weekend Post Office says,
don't worry, everything's going to be legit this election season.
We got the timely delivery of mail in ballots under control.

(01:24):
ABC says there would be no unmuted micro votes at
the debate next month with Trump and Harris. That's a
victory for Donald Trump. And Donald Trump is promising he'll
require health insurance companies or the government itself to cover
in vitro fertilization costs.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
And we got all that Quinnipiac.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
University voting since our FK Junior left the race and
endorsed Donald Trump to go through.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
But first things first.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
He is the CEO of the American Policy Roundtable. He

Speaker 3 (02:07):
Good Morning, David's a.

Speaker 5 (02:07):
Natty Good Morning Michael for a program that honors birthdays
around the world every day, Happy Birthday.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Well, is there anything greater than the life and birth
and a God who created us and gifted us and
purposed us. I see it in others. I probably do
the worst at seeing at myself and myself. All I
see is who's that fat guy with gray hair in
the mirror? But you know yesterday, you would have Yesterday

(02:38):
was a David Natti moment. So Joe Vic surprises me,
comes into town. It's a hundred degrees heat advisory. Let's
go golfing, so you know, get on at the bridge
in Franklin.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
And I got to tell you, I don't know why
everything is. During a brief pause in my career, I
came to Cleveland, spent a week with David. We decided
to finally, once and for all, redo my entire swing.
And while we were there everything was great.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
Came home, didn't play for a while, and then I
got caught somewhere between the new swing and the old swing.
And it's been a dizat yesterday. Everything fell into place.
It was like it was me, only it was like
a video game. The drives were going exactly where I
wanted them to do, the exact height, I wanted them
to do, the exact distance I wanted them. My approaches
were hitting the green. I had legitimate puts for a birdie.

(03:29):
I had three birdies, I think, and I was playing
great now At the same time, it's one hundred degrees
feels like one hundred and five. I'm not really sweating.
In fact, the only thing I would tell you is
there were times I was like, Gee, this is like
almost trying to breathe water or wow, that sun.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
I can feel it like burning through my clothes.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
But it wasn't until we got to like the last
three or four holes that I started feeling dizzy. I
can recreate the dizziness now just thinking about it. But
I was playing so well, Oh, I wanted to fit.
I nearly gave myself heat stroke. I had to come home,
lay on the vent with my dog with ice all
over my body, and it took forty five minutes to
cool down. Nearly killed myself on my fifty ninth, last
day of my fifty ninth year. But all your hard

(04:13):
work and coaching would have been the cause of death,
because for some reason you showed.

Speaker 5 (04:19):
Up the day three sixty four on fifty nine years.
So play with you on a hundred degree temperatures.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
Well, he's from Florida, so for him, it wasn't that bad.
And then after he's like, Mikey, you should have said something.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
I don't care. I click off every day. I was like, well,
I really about that.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
I kind of want to see if this thing would
go for eighteen holes the.

Speaker 5 (04:39):
Last three home my degrees again in Nashville today, right,
I think we're in the nineties today, which won't be
as bad.

Speaker 1 (04:45):
But I know you know what I told him today.
I said, Look, but I say that now. Watch if
I play really well, I won't want to leave, but
I may stop after nine just because I don't even
know how.

Speaker 3 (04:59):
I don't know how much I've covered.

Speaker 5 (05:01):
I will tell you.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
I started thinking about do you lose would you actually
lose muscle control in a heat stroke?

Speaker 3 (05:08):
Because I felt I jost A.

Speaker 5 (05:09):
Lot of things happen. You really don't want to cook yourself.
We played one time with a guy. We thought that
he thought he was drinking enough water, but it was
the electrolytes and everything else that he was losing. Yeah,
you don't want to cook yourself in heat. That's weather
advisory to everyone across your network of stations. It's at
the one hundred degree situation. If you've ever seen somebody
get heat stroke. You don't want to mess with that.

(05:30):
You can be hospitalized with that for a number of days.
You just don't want to cook yourself. And the thing
about Nashville and I played one time in one hundred
and five degree heat index, people don't realize it's like
living in a pizza box because you're standing on stone
everywhere you are that you just get cooked from both sides.
But take care of yourself. We would like to have

(05:51):
you back after a labor day. You're kind of doing
well right now.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
Yes, well, And I will say this as my coach
in high school used to always say, oh is.

Speaker 3 (06:00):
The indoor time. Look at those white legs. So I'm not.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
I'm really not used to it, but it was. It
was your hard work paying off. So I stuck it out.
We got a lot to cover today. Okay, So first,
did you watch the interview last night?

Speaker 5 (06:13):
Yeah? I kind of you forgive me for being trite
with colloquialisms, but talk about it nothing burger wow, I
mean then started off, I mean it was an info
produced that likes an infomercial on a rock star. Yeah,
and they started up just the water shed pulp. Yeah,

(06:35):
I mean, I couldn't stop laughing out loud.

Speaker 3 (06:37):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
But but that's a powerful point, David, because I was
watching it and feeling the same thing this, This was
feeling like an OPRAH interview with a superstar kind of thing.
And so I didn't feel like it was pre taped
in order to edit bad answers. I felt like it
was pre taped in order to be packaged in a
way exactly that would hide the dullness of the answers.

(06:59):
But that it backfires. It's like what we said yesterday,
when you wait thirty nine days for something, We've had
this conversation a lot of times. You know, sometimes we
you know, we get a discernment or an insight or
maybe another new sliver of the puzzle, and you know,
and then we would talk about, well do we bring
that up? Because when you talk about something while it's happening,

(07:21):
it doesn't look when a tornado's on the ground, doesn't matter.
If the board up well, the cleft palate is on
the air. The information is important. But you start talking
about something a week, two weeks, three weeks later, you
really better have something powerful to say to make us
wait thirty nine days for that, And with all the
packaging they did around it, it just made it duller,
vaguer and flatter.

Speaker 3 (07:42):
To me, it didn't work in her favor.

Speaker 5 (07:45):
No, it h and again for giving me for the coloquism.
But all I could think of was, this is a nothing.
I kept waiting and waiting, and then when I realized
that this was about I don't know, they said seventeen
or eighteen twenty seven minutes of action, full content, and
everything else was bluff and high packaged around it. I
recognized that this is, unfortunately, tragically, what we have been witnessing,

(08:11):
which you began to call the death of journalism, all
the way back to twenty sixteen. In twenty twenty, now
what we have is, in essence, the new normal, which
is the mainstream press committed to the progressive principles of
the administrative state, protecting its own and forwarding a candidate.

(08:32):
CNN should have really been required by the Federal Elections
Commission to report last night's as a campaign contribution.

Speaker 3 (08:40):
Yeah, should have.

Speaker 5 (08:41):
No.

Speaker 3 (08:42):
Literally.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
One of the things that I kind of recognized is
the difference is in twenty sixteen, journalism was dead. Most
Americans didn't realize it, yet some realized biased, but didn't.
Most didn't realize in their back pocket a part of
a cabal, but they do today. So what you saw

(09:08):
CNN execute yesterday is their new way of addressing it.
All right, So the packaging that was there to dull it.
If you go back and look at the questions Dana
Bosch asked, they were there, even a couple of redirects
were there. But the way they packaged it and then
the way they moved on, this is their way of
trying to cover it up. If you were predisposed to

(09:32):
still being on the sugar high, you wouldn't have noticed
the flip flops. You wouldn't have noticed the lies that
were exposed, and how vague and dull and bad this went.
That was their new goal. So I think they realized
journalism is dead. We got to be a little craft
here at how we get away with it.

Speaker 5 (09:50):
I saw that a little bit well, for example, the
question of fracking, which is really dominating the whole conversation.
I mean, Kamala Harris was clearly articulate twenty nineteen in
her advocacy against racking, and now twenty twenty she gets
the call to be a part of Joe Biden's team
as the vice president, and so she instantly adopts Stranton

(10:13):
Joe's approach on tracking, which is, don't take off the
people in Pennsylvania because we're going to need their votes.
So Bash asked the question about the switch and the
flip flop, but she never asks why why did you
change your position? Did the science change? Was it simply
that you were doing your job?

Speaker 1 (10:33):
And actually I got a defender, David, wasn't it. I
Actually I got a defend her. She did. She said,
did something in your understanding change? And that's when she said,
my value is on the same. It's just she dodged it.
And then she even did the redirect Donald, your quote
was this, and now it's that she I think that
was there.

Speaker 3 (10:53):
And then the two times and she moved on.

Speaker 5 (10:55):
But yeah, yeah, and it's unfortunate. It's very and I
will give Harris a lot of credit to you. Of course,
in anticipation, she was coached up to the young degree.

Speaker 3 (11:07):
Yeah, very like it.

Speaker 5 (11:08):
But what Bash also was willing to well, it was
clear who was in control of the debate, and it
was Kamala Harris of the conversation.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
Of the conversation.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Yeah, and then I think Kamala to me, as I
was watching, and I'm not trying to be a right
wing talk show host, just as a as an American citizen,
it was obvious she changed her views on fracking because
she needs to win Pennsylvania.

Speaker 3 (11:31):
There's no path without it. I mean, it was just
sitting there.

Speaker 1 (11:35):
I guess Dana Bash could have said, for those that
are suspicious, you've changed your views on fracking because of
the importance of Pennsylvania in order to win the election.
Is that she could have asked her point blank and didn't,
so she let it just be kind of like a
question of record to let her get away with being vague.
The vice president of the same yeah, and Walls did

(11:57):
the same thing, only terribly. You lie no, and he
goes back into his you know, I'm proud of my
twenty four years. It's there, but never admitted that, you know,
I misled. She went through about three things he liked.

Speaker 5 (12:09):
Aimed response, I'm Michael, that's like classic I can go
back to the nineteen nineties media training schools with candidates.
That is that was such a classically scripted public relations
company crisis management line. But it was embarrassing. I mean,
it was almost a laugh out line allowed line.

Speaker 1 (12:30):
Yeah, he was really bad. She was really vague. It
was very very packaged, the flip flopping on evs. I
wonder what environmentalists are doing. Are they going to be
true to their environmental priorities or to their loyalty of
the party?

Speaker 3 (12:46):
Border wall?

Speaker 1 (12:46):
For all those that were for open borders, I wonder
how they're feeling about Kamala Harris today. For those that
really care about you know, climate change, the fracking, we'll
find out what they're really made of. Look, this thing's
a dead heat and they're going to need the kind
of energy that they're sugar high projected in turnout in
order to make this close.

Speaker 3 (13:07):
Let alone win.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
And so the bottom line is she got away with
flip flopping last night, But I don't know if she
gets away with flip flopping in terms of energy and
get out to vote on election day, that could come
back to bite her.

Speaker 5 (13:22):
Well. I know that what I walked away with was
a feeling that she was playing a role, and this
was a new role for her, and she was playing
the role. I was very uncomfortable because I felt she
was very uncomfortable. It was awkward, It was sort of
like she didn't fit in the new clothing. It just

(13:43):
didn't seem to be right, and it seemed like the
entire construct of the event was to try to make
her comfortable. And it's very awkward. Michael. It shouldn't be
projected as personal. It's not about any animous. I have
never met Vice President Harris. I respect the fact that

(14:03):
she's a public servant, that her life is dedicated and
at risk. I appreciate all that. It just doesn't add up.
There's something that when you get done on the it
just doesn't add up well.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
The bottom line is it was apparent very quickly that
it could not live up to its hype. And that's
what you get when you waited thirty nine days. And
after watching I think I get why she waited thirty
nine days.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
This is your morning show with Michael Del.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
Tuono, probably wondering who else has birthdays with me. I
always remember Cameron Diaz being one of them. She's turning
fifty three, but I did not know this till yesterday.
The world's wealthiest man, Warren Buffett, really shares a birthday
with me. Ninety five years old today, and singer bb
Rexa is thirty six and if it's your birthday along

(14:53):
with mine, so glad you were born and thanks for
making us a part of the show and sharing my
birthday with me. All right, seve minutes after the hour
real quickly, David h speaking of vague because everything was
vague with Kamala Harris last night. Even her explanation of
how she got the call from Joe was kind of vague.

Speaker 3 (15:12):
The phone rang and it was Joe Biden and he
told me what he had decided to do. And I
asked him, are you sure?

Speaker 2 (15:22):
And he said yes, And that's how I learned about it.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
I mean, David, does anything really, I mean you called
it a nothing burger certainly did live up to thirty
nine days of hype or even the hype of how
it was packaged. I mean, there's a great he called.
I said hello, he said, I'm not running. I said,
are you sure?

Speaker 3 (15:45):
He said yes, and I said, okay, See that was
worth watching.

Speaker 5 (15:54):
Yeah. Yeah, her delivery is contest. I think part of
what has been a problem for her in politics in
regards so electoral politics. But yeah, the whole question is
again the data bask question that didn't get asked. Men
of Vice president. When did you know that the president

(16:16):
was facing this kind of medical impairment? How long has
this been? How long has this been a problem?

Speaker 1 (16:24):
Was it was in there worded very differently so that
you couldn't say she didn't ask it, and it was
certainly never honestly answered and hid from And the vagueness
was allowed. Flip flopping that used to kill a candidate,
not so much anymore, RFK. He was ignored, not anymore,
And we suddenly have all these legal technicalities to keep

(16:47):
his name on swing state ballots? What's really up with
the attacks on RFK? When we continue with Dave's and
Nati next.

Speaker 3 (16:54):
Hey, it's me Michael.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
Your morning show can be heard live five to eight
AM Central, six to nine Eastern and great cities like Jackson, Mississippi, Akron, Ohio,
or Columbus, Georgia. We'd love to be a part of
your morning routine and we're grateful you're here now. Enjoy
the podcast. Welcome to Friday, August thirty, twenty twenty four.

Speaker 3 (17:11):
I don't know if it's because of my birthday or
because of the three day weeks. This kind of feels
like a holiday show, doesn't it more than a but.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
The United States Postal Service says it's preparing to ensure
secure and timely delivery of all mail in ballots.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
All was fine, don't worry about an election fraud problem.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
The United States Postal Service has everything under control. ABC
News reportedly declined the request of Vice President Harris to
have unmuted microphones. It's going to be the same rules
as the Biden Trump debate when we have the Harris
Trump debate on September tenth, and former President Donald Trump
is promising that he'll require health insurance companies or governments

(17:49):
to cover all in vitro fertilization costs. Is this subpandering
attempt to close the gender gap in the upcoming election?
And finally, a majority of likely voters say that ourfka's
endorsement of Donald Trump doesn't change their views of the
Republican nominee. Again, it doesn't matter what everybody across the
country thinks, justin swing states, and it doesn't have to

(18:12):
be a majority. In fact, if just one percent change
their vote to Donald Trump over RFK Junior, that would
give Donald Trump the victory.

Speaker 3 (18:22):
And they know that.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
That's why, based on a technicality, his name will remain
on the ballot in Michigan and Wisconsin, and now we
find out in North Carolina they have voted to keep
his name on the ballot. Though if you vote for
RFK Junior, he gets no credit for it, but it
certainly blocks Donald Trump from getting credit with him not
being on the ballot. So, David, it sure sounds like

(18:46):
they've ignored OURFK. But the war against him continues.

Speaker 5 (18:51):
Well. The Atlantic just published an article talking about rf
jor being his drug dealer, going the whole way back
to Bobby Kennedy's problem with throws in astle. So they're
going to bring up everything they can. They're going to
throw the kitchen sink at this guy and every consistent
entailure in his life because he's a serious and genuine threat.

(19:16):
They his voice to be heard because a lot of
people agree with what he's saying. And Donald Trump has
become a listening ear and an open hand to Kennedy
and in his greeting uh. And so you know what it
remains to me seeing now, the question is if he
appears on the ballot anyhow, because it's too late to
get him off in three states at it's Michigan, Wisconsin,

(19:38):
and North Carolina. That's only going to put more pressure
on the resources that they're left in the Kennedy campaign
to make certain that his supporters understand that he is
out of the race. Uh, and that is he has
in fact endorsed Donald Trump. So that made backfire also
by forcing the whole focus to be even more intense

(19:58):
on the people that Kennedy knows that are out there.
So it yet to be. It's yet to be seen.
Now what is interesting was last night Chelsea Gabbard co
hosted an event with Donald Trump, and so the Trump
greeting of these folks who are coming over to say, look,
we may not agree on everything, but we agree on
one thing, and that's what Kamala Harris and the progressive

(20:19):
regime should not be in control for the next four
years of the administrative state.

Speaker 3 (20:26):
That is the real story.

Speaker 5 (20:28):
And that Trump is doing that. It was if you
contrast the two events, Trump's event last night in Wisconsin
with Telsey Gabbard versus the prepackaged infomercial that CNN offered.
It may be the difference in this campaign a very
high tech, limited audience that's a nationwide distribution where Trump

(20:53):
and Gabbard are on the ground in a state they
absolutely must win hands with everybody in the room, very
different feeling.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
It is also a reminder that what Donald Trump always says, Oh,
he may be the devil himself today, but that's only
because he's out there today. You get to a post
Trump era, they'll just move on to the next just
like they're doing with RFK. There is an absolute intolerance
coming from the Democracy Democrat Party and the media. So

(21:33):
this is your glimpse of the future. There is no
getting around it for anybody that's still sitting out there
thinking anybody but Trump. If we could just get beyond
Donald Trump, then everything will get normal again. Kamala was
trying to sell that last night. Nothing could be further
from the truth. It's a lie, so you better get
used to it. RFK is.

Speaker 5 (21:52):
Well and Michael, this is a fascinating time and the
point that you bring up is very well taken. Let's
say that there was someone who was much more articulate
than Donald Trump at the top of the republicanscutive right now,
challenging the administrative state. That person would be buried with

(22:13):
perhaps a different colors, shovel and wheelbarrow. Whoever comes up
now and challenges the premise of the executive branch being
the executive order, free ring circus leader of the administrative
state toward progressive ideas. They're going to be They're going

(22:35):
to be absolutely butchered by the press because the press
is all on board. They are down the road for
the technocracy that's coming and they're in. So this is
not going to be an easy fight no matter who's
involved for the next twenty years.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
Closing moments with David Sanati. I saw this on Twitter.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
Donald Trump, fifty seven minutes with doctor Phil fifty seven
minutes with Theovonne, two hours and three minutes with Elon
Musk An hour and eleven minutes was Sean Ryan. We
wait thirty nine days. Kamala finally does her interview eighteen
minutes edited.

Speaker 5 (23:15):
I need no transfer on those eight minutes, Michael, I mean.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
That just says something in itself. I want to close
with this. It used to be if you got caught
flip flopping, that was the end of your race, that
was the end of your political career. She's caught in
three flip flops in a produced interview, from EVS to
the border wall to fracking, nothing, What's the authenticity of

(23:41):
why do we bother to bow to the far left
in their party over Israel? If she flips I mean
last night she said she's standing by Israel, So I
would presume a third of Democrats won't be voting for her.
She's gonna frack and turn her back on EV's I'm
assuming she's gonna lose all the Union support, right, what

(24:02):
about the border wall and those for open borders.

Speaker 3 (24:04):
Isn't he going to lose all those Hispanic voters?

Speaker 1 (24:08):
What do you make of flip clopping that there is
no consequence anymore.

Speaker 5 (24:12):
It comes back to something that we've been talking about
here for well over a year. This campaign, no matter
who's at the top of the ticket, is about the boogeyman.
It's about Donald Trump. They have to make it personal.
Every time Trump goes on to an issue, and what
he's doing right now in regards to what he said
about inverteral the fertilization last night, is very fascinating because

(24:38):
what he's saying is we need more babies. That's a
huge difference in the debate. Perhaps Trump is discovered the
real life this central crisis, which is the population crash
that's going on around the world and in the United States.
Can may already be ahead of the game on this situation.

Speaker 3 (24:56):
Well, it's the polity you are. I don't know if
I'm convinced he is.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
I don't know that he isn't just pandering to try
to blunt this abortion. Look, they're making the abortion argument
about in vitro. That isn't the argument. The argument is
the Constitution the United States of America states rights and
the will of the people in the States to make
this decision. And really, when it comes to abortion, life

(25:20):
is only really life when it's wanted. That's the problem.
That's ninety nine point whatever percent of abortions. It has
nothing to do with in vitro life and mother rape incests.

Speaker 3 (25:30):
So I don't know.

Speaker 1 (25:30):
If this is a political endeavor or in great discernment
and great wisdom and great common sense because of abortion
and other things, we got a birth crisis and he
gets it.

Speaker 3 (25:41):
I know you do. I don't know if if I'm
convinced Trump does. Maybe he does.

Speaker 5 (25:45):
Well, I'm not either, But I thought his angle of
approach on this was completely unpredicted, was not not scripted
and not predicted. So this is the way Trump works,
though he comes onto a discovery and then he works
it out out loud. So it's kind of interesting to
see where he's going with this and where he may
end up. The point of the whole thing is, Michael
is I'm not so sure that the short field may

(26:08):
not boomerang on Kamala Harris in the end, because there
are three critical states out there, Nevada, Arizona, and Wisconsin.
Trump's on the ground, she hasn't got there yet. Now
she's in Georgia. She's in Georgia because she knows she
desperately has to flip Georgia or she's got a real problem.
It's a very telling reality.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
Yeah, and they're gonna If you go to the Washington
Post today, you'll see there's a lot of pressure stories
on the governor of Georgia to have to make some
tough choices and flip. The Georgia is maybe tops on
their radar right now. And you can tell that by

(26:50):
their schedule, and you can tell about that by the
maneuvering they're doing behind the scenes somewhere. I think the
Democrats have become convinced without Georgia, they lost.

Speaker 5 (27:00):
Well, that's true, they won Georgia. Trump won Georgia in
twenty sixteen b Toronto and eleven thousand votes. He lost
it in twenty because of Stacy Abrams, the Center for
American Progress, all of George Soros's friends, and Mark Zuckerberg.
He lost Georgia by eleven thousand votes. That's a two
hundred thousand vote flip. Those people didn't disappear, Michael. They're

(27:22):
still there, and since twenty and twenty Georgia has consecutively
returned more to its conservative origins and voting. They know
they have a problem in Georgia because it's most likely
to go for Trump.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
I'm going to use an Italian analogy that will help
us summarize this. I don't care how good the food is.
If I got to wait an hour or and ten
minutes for it to arrive at the table, it's probably
not going to live up to the weight. That's what
happened to Kamala Harris. You don't make people wait thirty
nine days for a nothing burger filled with flip flops,

(27:57):
filled with vagueness. This, and the plate was cold, but
that was the nodding tim The plate was called no.
But I look, I'm an honest person that convention that
was Hollywood at its best, and she came out like
a Hollywood actress at her best and delivered the script.

Speaker 3 (28:17):
Great, that's not what happened last night.

Speaker 1 (28:21):
And if if that's what we waited thirty nine days
for and we still haven't had a news conference, we
may be waiting a lot longer because I don't think
it's I don't think her performance is going to get
much better.

Speaker 5 (28:31):
No, I think they'll go back to hiding her to
the debate, and that would be the next chance we
get the privilege of seeing her. We're starting to still
we're dealing with royalty.

Speaker 1 (28:38):
Here for all your labors and your help to your
morning show. Happy labor Day, three day weekend. I hope
you make the best of it. Look forward to talking
to you. I'm old, it's only a matter of time.

Speaker 3 (28:53):
Good morning, guys.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
This is Jeff Pleasant, New Tennessee, and my morning show
is your morning show with Michael Dale.

Speaker 1 (29:01):
Roory O'Neil is here. He will be your host on
Monday of this show, along with you know, providing for
all of my heart. So you'll be working hard. I
imagine part of that show might have something to do
with waiting thirty nine days for a vague Kamala and
for a Tim Walls that was almost knave comes to mind.

Speaker 4 (29:21):
Well yet almost. That was a good role that he played.
I think had well played yourself.

Speaker 1 (29:30):
That, by the way, is a gift from my wife
to you.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
You got it. Nothing goods by you. It was good.

Speaker 4 (29:38):
No, well, trust me, that one took some That one
almost got yo to try to get in there.

Speaker 3 (29:44):
I don't want to give it away though.

Speaker 4 (29:45):
At the same time, Look, that was twenty six minutes
of content jammed into a full hour.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
That's what that was. That was a lot of filler.
You know. That's the kind of bad meat loaf. We're like,
it's all bred craft. I mean, that's what we waited
thirty nine days for.

Speaker 1 (30:03):
That did not That's not the same thing they did
at the con At the convention, they pulled it off.

Speaker 3 (30:08):
I mean they played sugar high. They did the atmosphere.
They did. She did the script she delivered last night.
She did. And could you find little a lesser?

Speaker 4 (30:19):
Is there any I mean we're talking, I can't read Savannah, Georgia.
Is it possible to find a less quaint venue in Savannah, Georgia?

Speaker 3 (30:29):
Yeah? The whole table that was it's so cold, like
it's Savannah. You should have been I don't know, it's Savannah.
It's historic.

Speaker 4 (30:38):
Yeah, even Savannah didn't live up. But Darth Vader was
about to walk by in the background. I mean, that
was that kind of a cold and whatever.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
Yeah, I don't Tim section to me, well, first of all,
the whole flip flopping from evs to border wall to
fracking and how flip flopping. I guess it's okay. I
don't know if that's gonna to do. They certainly didn't
sell those foot flops at the convention a week ago.
But Tim, you know, because Dana bash was basically I

(31:08):
don't think it was pre taped in order to you know,
take bad answers out, but they certainly packaged to downplay it.
Her questions were there, her redirects were there. Everything was that.

Speaker 3 (31:20):
But with Tim, it just didn't play well.

Speaker 4 (31:25):
He was just all pivot and they both sounded like
they were coached Prepton Washington school. For That's the gift
of Donald Trump is that he just says whatever is
on his mind. It may be crazy, you may love it,
it may be true with maybe fake false whatever.

Speaker 3 (31:37):
But it's playing.

Speaker 4 (31:38):
Spoken, whereas these two just sounded like we were being
manipulated and spun.

Speaker 1 (31:43):
Let's just put it this way. If she does more,
and she should, I mean, the American people are trying
to vet and make a decision. She better get better fast,
because that was everything in her favor with packaging. I mean,
you have the light of the day. I mean that
was what was really really eighteen minutes crammed into an

(32:03):
hour whatever it.

Speaker 3 (32:04):
I broke it down, it was twenty six and a half.

Speaker 4 (32:06):
Like if you're really you know, question to answer, maybe
if you take out the Tim Walls part, she was
eighteen but yeah, oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (32:12):
Yeah, yeah, of course, yeah that's right.

Speaker 4 (32:14):
But yeah, I mean it was still it was not
satisfied considering three days of hype, like for that.

Speaker 3 (32:20):
I mean, okay, I guess yeah, it did make sense?
Or what do you make any new polls.

Speaker 4 (32:24):
Quinnipiac University shows the races a toss up.

Speaker 3 (32:27):
No, okay, surprise, surprise. What was interesting? They said, here
are eleven issues.

Speaker 4 (32:32):
Which of these issues or ranked them, which is most
important to you with this election?

Speaker 3 (32:36):
In November number one on the list.

Speaker 4 (32:38):
Preserving democracy the economy was number two, and the Supreme
Court was third.

Speaker 3 (32:46):
That would show the influence of the convention narrative.

Speaker 4 (32:49):
Perhaps, But then you wonder, what's the chicken and egg here,
because was the Biden campaign building on this because that
was something that they saw, or are people responding to
what was out there.

Speaker 3 (32:59):
From the Biden Harris teams.

Speaker 4 (33:00):
Also, I'll note my personal asterisk on this the economy
and inflation.

Speaker 3 (33:06):
They have his two separate issues. I would argue if
they weren't, we would probably be number one, right right.

Speaker 1 (33:12):
The other thing was the stuff on RFK because while
it talked about, you know, it didn't have a dramatic effect.
It doesn't take a dramatic effect nationally. It only takes
about a one percent effect in about three swing states.

Speaker 3 (33:27):
To change the election.

Speaker 1 (33:28):
And based on all the attacks on RFK, I'm guessing
they see RFK is a threat and.

Speaker 3 (33:34):
It could be if he stays on the ballot.

Speaker 4 (33:35):
I mean, I think he's more of a threat to
Harris Waltz if his name.

Speaker 3 (33:39):
Is on the ballot.

Speaker 4 (33:39):
If he takes it off, it actually I think helps
them in the long run because Donald Trump has about
a forty seven eight per cap He's never broken fifty percent,
so the more it's broken, you know, it's split, the better,
the more it helps him.

Speaker 1 (33:52):
I like the way you say it. The extra asterix.
My asterisk would be this. The poll finds it nearly
sixty nine percent of voters think America's best, these are
ahead of us. The majority of them, of course, were Democrats.
That's how the story read. Said like, yeah, pretty.

Speaker 4 (34:09):
Much, yeah, best, so fifty seven Republicans, fifty seven percent
of Republicans at best days ahead eighty four percent of Democrats,
and independent sixty nine percent.

Speaker 3 (34:18):
So that tracks with independent. We're all in this together.
