Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's me Michael. 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, well two.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Three, starting your morning off right, A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding because we're in.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
This togid this is your morning show, Michael, Bill Trump.
You know the best part of waking up really is
that's actually Krispy Krean the coffee in your guy, Oh,
just coffee in gym right, Well, it's the commisial with folders.
But I don't drink folders, so I kind of turned
(00:45):
into a somewhere between Duncan Donuts and Krispy Krean. Really,
why are we getting our coffee from donut people? I
don't know. Hey, if you're just waking up seven minutes
after the hour, thanks for waking up with your morning
show on the Aaron streaming live on your iHeartRadio app.
It's going to be a tough weekend for the National
Football League and cities of your morning show. Interests. The
(01:06):
Cardinals and the Lions. I think is going to be
a sensational game. Cardinals are playing very well. They're capable
of beating the Lions, but that should be a great matchup.
Commanders and the way the Bengals are playing right now,
that could be a tough one. There's an old expression
in football, you can't win if you can't score, and
the Titans can't score, that's going to be a problem
against the Packers. The Cowboys have to bounce back after
(01:28):
being slapped around by the Saints, but they got the
Ravens all the more. And I think maybe the best
game of the weekend could be the Eagles and the Saints.
But good luck to your team this weekend, of course,
got plenty of college football. But in the meantime, we've
got news and we must understand, and sometimes it's best
to get it straight from the hoist's mouth. Suffer not
(01:48):
thy commander at Chief Hunter thee Hail to the Chief.
He's the one we all say hell to. He has
the power because he takes a shower. Ladies and gentlemen,
good morning, mister President's.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Being called a horse. Okay, you said the horse's mouth,
and I just have to say this about that, because
if you called me a horse, I think Tim Walls
might get excited. We don't want him to get excited.
But we're looking at it. I like to be called
the goat, greatest of old time. That's what it is,
the goat's mouth. We love that, all right, straight, we're
(02:23):
doing very well.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Yeah, you know, this was doing very well, very very
very very interesting week. Okay, so the first one you
take a shot to the head, to the ear. This
time those shot gets off. But a second assassination at
timp is one plus one two.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
One plus one is two. And they were two attempts.
And I told Secret Service, you know, I saw the
guy before they saw the guy you did. And I
saw him and I said, give me my three wood
and they said, sir, They said, sir, this is a
long hole. It's a part five. I said, give me
(03:00):
three would and I was going to take him out,
but he was so far off to the right and
I never slice, so they took him out for me.
But I was going to do it. I was going
to put my golden golf ball. You know, I have
the golden golf ball, and I was going to put
it right between the ice. It wasn't on the fairway,
and I don't know how to hit it into the rough.
I don't know how to hit it into the trees.
(03:21):
I've nen't done anything like that. So they took him out.
But I was very upset because I had a putt
for birdie. It was a beautiful birdie, and they wouldn't
let me finish the hole. They got him out, they
wouldn't let me finish the hole. It was actually a
putt for eagle, but we called it a bertie and
identified as an eagle. But they wouldn't let me finish
(03:43):
the hole. And we were very upset about it. But
these people are sick people. And the craziest thing about it,
he wore salmon to an assassination that Tim, Who the
hell does that? I never would have done that. You
shouldn't have done that.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
You think of everything, You think of everything. I don't
think him. Are you concerned? Because two, they're gonna get
to news conference in a second, But the fact that
he was there for twelve hours doesn't that concern you?
That nobody checked the perimeter. They you know, I know
it was an unplanned event, but you often golf. They
had enough notice to do a sweep of the they're
(04:15):
still struggling with perimeters.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
In you they're having a very hard time. And if
I was in charge of that, we'd have the greatest
perimeter of the world has ever seen. But we didn't
have a good perimeter. But they still did a fantastic
job getting him out of there. And this guy's a
whack job. You look at him, he's a complete and
total whack job. He went over to Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine,
(04:37):
and they told him we don't want you. He said,
I want to fight for Ukraine. They said, you are
a crazy person. We don't want you, and that got
him very upset. As you know, I got along very
well with Putin, I got along very well with Zelinski,
and I will end the Ukraine War in twenty four hours.
We're going to get on the phone. We're going to
(04:57):
talk about it. Like we talked to him, Dual, you
know what I'm doing. Well. We love Abdul. I said, Abdul,
you have a beautiful house. We're not going to have
any problems. He said, We're not going to have any problems.
We looked at it. We said, we're going to drone
ail out of your house. Well, maybe we'll give in
one of those big beautiful paters that has all I got.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
You know, boy, what do you make of that? What
do you make of that? The paper?
Speaker 3 (05:19):
These are tremendous bombs. You have the pager. They had
quite an explosive day, I can tell you that, and
not the way they wanted to because they have done
it insertar ways. But we will give these people beepers
if they don't behave themselves. So we'll have the war
handled in twenty four hours. But this guy was a
(05:40):
whack and he got in the perimeter and he never
should have been there, and we got to fix that
because we have a lot of problems.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Forty seven, by the way, Fridays with forty five forty
seven days till the election, polls showed a dead heat
between you and Kamala Harris. Do you believe it's that close?
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Well, I'm actually up by a lot. We know that
I'm up by lot, and the polls are crazy. These
people are crazy. Did you watch the interview with the
word challad Queen and Oprah who's reading a salad in
old life. By the way you look at her, she's
never eaten the salad. Yesterday was Oprah's first exposure to
Salad said it wasn't the one that she needs. You
(06:18):
look at us, She's like a balloon. It's incredible, and
she goes from big Tasaul. We don't know. She's the
only person maybe Ozepik hasn't worked for. But we'll see
what happens. I think you know who should think it's sloppy,
You know, Chris Christy. He should probably try and he
had a hard time. He broke the lap band. Nobody's
ever seen anything like it before. But it's not that close.
(06:39):
This person to that Kamala. They call her Kamala. I
call her the cackling comrade communist Kamala Harris. Okay, that
was one of the worst interviews I think I've ever seen.
She says, we have the right to have dreams and
we have the right to rightfully make a right on
rent from the right lane. It's incredible. This woman has
(07:02):
no idea what the health he's talking about? Are you
going to lower the cost of living? Well, we have
dreams and aspirations and the right to make rights rightfully
with right and left, and nobody knows what the health
he's talking about. The polls aren't that close. They say
it's a dead heat. No, we're up by a lot.
Nobody wants to adlant, but we want to get everybody
(07:22):
out and we want to be too big to rig.
That's what we're calling it, too big to rig.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Well, you know the Black Journalist's interview, that was the
first time she didn't show up. You did. You were
abused by the ABC reporter, but your comeback was spectacular,
and then she gets the softballs and the love treatment
from the same journalists. It's, you know, unless somebody's going
to love on her and cover for her, she's not
interested in doing any interviews. But we're talking about the
(07:49):
race being a dead heat according to the polls, and
that makes North Carolina and George are very important for you, Arizona, Nevata,
Avery for you, and you got to take one Wisconsin,
Michigan or Pennsylvania. And yet you were in New York
and while you were there, you really believe that you
can win New York. And I don't think you're crazy.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Well, of course I'm not crazy. I'm one of the
smartest people in the world has ever seen. You know.
I talk to a very good friend who knows a
lot of people in New York. You may have heard
of him. His name is Robert F. Kennedy Junior. We
call him, call him the guy. He's a good guy.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
We call him Bobby.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
He's a great guy. Said Bobby, what do you think
about New York? He said, sir, you're going to win.
I said, that's a smart guy. This Bobby is a
smart guy. We love him. We were in New York.
We were at what's called the Nassau Coliseum with a
great New York Islanders played the main history. They're four strengths,
family cups. They call it the Barn. We rocked the
(08:46):
Barn like nobody's ever seen. We think we're going to
win New York. You know, we're not up by too
much there, but we're up by a lot. Even though
a lot of people say you're down, sir, you're down thirteen.
We're not down thirteen. You have a governor of New York.
We call her the buck tooth Bandit. She's from Buffalo,
Kathy Huncle. You see her. She looks like Roger Rabbit.
(09:08):
You have no idea what the hell she says? Jesse
mugs Bunny. She's a terrible person. She's from Buffalo, which
means she was born sideways. You know, we can explain
that another day. But she's got a lot of problems.
You have Eric Adams. People are residing from his administration
left to right. He's a horrible mayor. He was almost
as bad as Bill Deblasio. We call him big Burn.
(09:31):
You look at him. But you have a lot of
problems in New York and they want to fix it.
I said, what do you have to lose? We're rocking
the barn and we're going to win New York by
a lot. You'll see what happens.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Ah, hang on a second, catch my breath. Closing moments
Friday with forty five? What do you call call You
don't call him Robert, no pizza boy.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
We call him Bobby sixteen thousand times and we call
him Bobby, And I think, what's going to happen? You
love hearing me say it so much, you're gonna think
your name to Bobby. Are you gonna say this is
your morning show? This is your morning show with Bobby
del Journal. Look at that increase. You can't do that.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
My dad was Bob del Giorno and he's a Hall
of Fame Radio personality of over sixty years. So I can't.
I can't do Bobby, But I like I like you
for a long time.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
By the way, I've known him for a long time.
He's a tremendous person. He's a great guy.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Bobby d all right, bottom line, forty seven days ago. Uh,
what what's the priority? What's the strategy?
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Well, we want people to get out. It's called bank
you vote. We want you to bank you vote.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
And like you know basketball, and you bank it off
the backboard. I've never done that, by the way. Whenever
I take a shot, I got Michael Jordan a lot.
It's they call it nothing but net nothing and it
barely touches the net. Two perfect shots, like my phone calls.
But we have the greatest we have the greatest election
coming up, the most important election coming up. And if
(10:58):
you watch the brah ozempic interview with Kamala Harris, you
will see that she has a lot of problems and
we cannot let her any of the White House. So
we are going to win. We're going to win bigger
and better than anybody's ever seen before. And we're very
excited about it. Forty seven days ago and we're very
excited about it. Vote early, Thank you vote, and get
(11:20):
other people to come with you, so we're sing to ring.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
There you have it. By the way, you made me
sweat Today, there's Friday with forty five Hell to the Chief.
He's the one we all say he'll do. Thank you,
mister President, Thank you so.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
Much, pizza boy, or should I say Bobby, You're a
great day.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
I think he's caught on the fact that I like
to hear him say Bobby. I don't know why that
Bobby makes me sweat. Seventeen minutes after the hour, your
top five stories of the day or next as your
morning show continues with Bobby at eighteen after the hour. Oh,
this is your morning show with Michael do Tuna Risenshein.
Welcome to Friday, the twentieth of September, And if you're
(11:59):
just waking up, the election is forty seven days away
and the polls show Harrison Trump deadlocked. The Postmaster General
is rejecting any claims that we cannot handle this amount
of mail. Why we handle junk mail every day, we
can handle ballots. And the GOP urging Nebraska to become
a winners to take all states. So interesting when you
look at the electoral college map, the role that one
district in Nebraska could potentially play depending how certain states fall,
(12:25):
and the Los Angeles Dodgers stars showhet Otani. I mean,
first of all, the notion that he's a pitcher. He's
not pitching right now because of injury, but the notion
this is a pitcher, this is so babe Ruth. He
hit his fiftieth home run last night. What makes that significant?
Fifty home runs and fifty stolen bases? Not impressed. It's
(12:47):
never happened before in the history of the game of baseball.
He is extraordinary and one of a kind. And if
you fell asleep during Thursday night football, you're not alone.
So did the Patriots they got walloped by the Jets
twenty four to three. You're a big tennis fan, John
Decker joining US White House correspondent. Who's your football team?
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (13:06):
I love football? Absolutely pretty impressive. What Aaron Rodgers is
doing at the age of forty years old pretty unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Is that your favorite team?
Speaker 3 (13:15):
Though?
Speaker 5 (13:15):
What is?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Are you a No? That's not my.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Favorite team, But I'm impressed by his athletic feats. How
could you not be as well as show Hey Otani. Wow,
what an athlete he I mean, incredible.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Can you believe that fifty home runs and fifty believe.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
N RBIs in one game. That's that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
It's yeah, He's just you know, you just know, like
you remember when we were younger watching Michael Jordan and
there was just something, or when we went through the
Tiger Woods experience. Okay, we've never seen this. I've been
a baseball fan my whole life. I've been a baseball
player my entire life. I've never seen that.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
This.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
This must have been what it was like watching Babe Ruth,
somebody that can do this many different things.
Speaker 4 (13:57):
So well, I know it. And you know, there are
very few people around who can say they saw Babe
Ruth play. And that's the incredible thing about show Heyotani
is that you can see him right now and you can,
you know, one day, tell your grandkids, I saw shoe
Heyo Tani play in the Major League.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Yeah, and I did. In Saint Louis. I went to
the Cardinals game just to see Otani went over five
one night. I thought, Hi, Jason, all right, so we
do have the threat of a government shut down, although
I'm not opposed to one. We don't think it's really
going to come to that. Nobody's going to allow a
government shut down forty seven days before an election, right
(14:36):
I wouldn't think.
Speaker 4 (14:37):
So. I think that cooler heads will prevail, And for
Republicans in particular, I think they have to recognize that
they would be blamed if there was a government shutdown.
We saw that bill fail the other day on the
floor of the House, and now there's a bipartisan effort
to keep the government funded for three months with a
continuing resolution that has no amendments attached to it. It's
(14:59):
a clean that to me is likely to ultimately pass
the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
So we had a caller from yesterday who took offense
to what Rory and I were talking about, and I
think she took a little lot of kind of context.
You're a White House correspondent and you're also a Supreme
Court bar attorney, but that would suggest you know a
thing or two about the law, and we are a
government of law as we're a republic. Do you think
America is, like never before, overly obsessed on one branch
(15:32):
of government right now? Then they should be.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
No. I mean, every four years, this is what we
focus on. We focus on the presidency. We focus on
the White House because this election is every four years
and because of all the power associated with the presidency.
So no, I think it's understandable, and especially when you
factor in if it's a fifty to fifty Senate, that
is a possibility. Whoever controls the White House will determine
(15:59):
who can trolls the US Senate.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
And certainly there's a lot of dysfunction for all the
branches of government. I mean, presidents exceed their powers, and
that's what Congress is there to stop. I think morally,
we've kind of abandoned a god. Therefore, every now and
then the Supreme Court becomes like God, and then the
Congress has become quite dysfunctional, the Club of one hundred.
The Senate really views themselves as the leaders of the
(16:21):
country as opposed to protecting states rights. And the House
members have been very unproductive. I think the last two
Congresses have been the least productive in American history. So
there's a lot of dysfunction to sort through. But in
this issue that we're talking about, we tend to think
of debt as Obama, Trump, Biden, and whoever is next.
(16:42):
You know, there is a Congress presiding over this ridiculous
budget and taking us deeper and deeper into debt.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
Right, it's their responsibility. It's their responsibility to pass a
budget and then that budget is either signed or vetoed
by the President. But this is the reason why we
send our lawmakers to Washington, because their responsibility every year
is figure out how much money the government can spend
(17:09):
for every department and every agency in the federal government.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
So the real question is how much political jockeying before
they settle this. I think that seems to kind of expired.
I expect them to have a deal by early next
week because they're just out of hay to make out
of it. Well, I think that's right.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
You know, look at the deadline. The deadline of the
new fiscal year begins October the first, so not much
time to as you put it, jockey, you know.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
And go back and forth.
Speaker 4 (17:37):
You need to get something in place. And you know,
Republicans recognize Mitch McConnell, the leader for Republicans in the Senate,
he's been out there saying we're going to get blamed.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
We're going to get blamed if.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
There's a government shutdown, which would ruin our chances if
you're in the Senate of flipping the Senate or Republicans
in the House from holding onto the House of Representatives.
So there's a lot at stake as a lates the
possibility of a government shutdown.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
If we were to ask what's the big sticking point
at this moment, what would you identify?
Speaker 4 (18:09):
At this point? You know, it's just there's just a
I would say, a dozen House Republicans that are listening
to everything that the former president says, and they were
the ones that wanted to go along with this amendment
that is an unnecessary amendment attached to the CR. And
(18:29):
if you know, I think that what will likely happen
is there's going to be a strong bipartisan effort to
fund the government, ignore those twelve or so House Republicans,
and ultimately pass a stopgap spending bill, a continuing resolution
to fund the government through December. And then you know what, Michael,
we're going to be talking about the same thing. Could
(18:50):
we get to that deadline?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
It's endless, it's endless, it's ver But I would say
on that one, it doesn't It's not that we don't
need a law. It's not that we need a law
on voting. It's that we need to enforce the laws
we have. And so that's where it starts feeling like
political grand standing. So I'm with you. There's not a
whole lot here that's really a debate. This is pure politics.
(19:12):
They're going to do the continuing resolution and we're all
going to be further in debt and pay for it.
But I suspect this will be resolved early next week.
I don't think they take it all the way to
the thirtieth because the grand standing isn't gaining you anything.
It's hurting you. It's almost hurting you as much as
if you let the government go unfunded.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
Yeah, you're right about that. I agree.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Well, you know what, Decker, we shouldn't be agreeing so much.
What's happening in this world?
Speaker 4 (19:37):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
It's one of those weeks, Michael. It's just one of
those weeks. All right, Well you have next week. We'll
disagree with more things out there.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
No, you're one of my favorite parts of this show.
You have a great weekend, get some rest watching for
our teams, and we'll see you on Monday. I'm just
waking up forty three minutes after the hour. Here are
the top five stories of the day. Well, it's pretty simple.
Trump spent time with the Jewish voting block and talking
about the importance of Israel. Kamala Harris had a love
(20:08):
fest at a stage livestream event with Oprah Winfrey and
much of Hollywood. Brian Shook was covering both.
Speaker 7 (20:17):
Road to the White House twenty twenty four. Former President
Trump gave remarks that the Israeli American Council's National Summit
in Washington, d C.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
On Thursday, more than any people on Earth, Israel has
to defeat her. I really believe that is a disaster
for Israel.
Speaker 7 (20:36):
Trump spoke on what may happen for Israel if Kamala
Harris was elected, while also promising to reinstate his travel ban.
He went on to add that the upcoming election is
the most important election in the history of Israel. The
Fighting Anti Semitism in America event also featured Miriam Addelson,
the widow of longtime GOP donor Sheldon Adelson, and other
(20:59):
Jewish leaders in Washington. I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Well, the FED surprised a lot of pundits cutting the
interest rate a half, not a quarter. Wall Street loved it,
the dows at a record high forty two thousand, and
President Biden loved it too. Mark Mayfield has more.
Speaker 5 (21:15):
Biden spoke before the Economic Club of Washington d C.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
I'm not here to take a victory lab.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
I'm not here to say the job well done.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
I'm not here to say we don't have a hell
of a lot more work to do. We do have
more work to do.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
Biden City expects rates to eventually fall even further. The
Central Bank cunt rates by half a point on Wednesday.
The decision lowers the federal funds rate to arrange between
four point seventy five to five percent. Interest rates had
remained at their highest level in number two decades. Since
July of last year. They Fed had maintained a goal
of lowering inflation two two percent. August saw the twelve
month inflation rate fall to two and a half percent,
(21:51):
its lowest level since February of twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
I'm Markneyfield. Forty seven days still the election and the
polls showed that Harris and Trump are deadlocked. According to
a survey by the New York Times, The Philadelphia Inquirer,
and Siena College both have the race tied forty seven
percent among nearly twenty five hundred likely voters. In Pennsylvania,
Harris has a four point advantage over Donald Trump. But
(22:15):
remember there's the old under polling for Trump that's anywhere
from two to five points. The state is one of
three what we believe to be very key. Donald Trump
has to get Nevada and Arizona. He's leading secure that.
He has to get North Carolina and Georgia and secure that,
and then he's got to take either a district in
(22:36):
Nebraska or Michigan, Wisconsin, or Pennsylvania. So that poll being
Pennsylvania becomes very very key. Good news for a change.
Cancer deaths in the US are on the decline, Tammy
Trehilo reports.
Speaker 6 (22:50):
That's according to our report released by the American Association
for Cancer Research, which found that the cancer death rate
went down by thirty three percent between nineteen ninety one
and twenty twenty one. The cancer death rate for children
in adolescence is also dropped by twenty four percent in
the past two decades. The report cited early detection, lower
smoking rates, and improvements in treatment as reasons for the decline,
(23:12):
but the authors warn that alcohol is still a lesser
known risk factor and excessive levels of consumption can increase
the risk of certain types of cancer, including breast cancer
and liver cancer. I'm Tammy Trhio.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
By the way, the links between obesity and cancer are
also high, which makes this a very important story. After all,
today is National Snack Day.
Speaker 8 (23:34):
It's National string cheese Day, the protein packed, local, pull
and eat snack we've been eating since nineteen seventy six
and it's all created by science. If you heat mozzarella
cheese to one hundred and forty degrees, it stretches the
length of the milk proteins and that allows strips to
be pulled off. The National Dairy Council says ninety six
percent of US peel to eat, but there's a movement
(23:56):
online to call people who don't peel monsters.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
I'm pre tennant. I'm Jim Schultz in Tampa and my
morning show is your Morning Show with Michael Gills Jornan.
Thanks for waking up with your morning show. I got
to do this for Scott Cosimore, a native from Cleveland
and a Guardian fan that was a walk off three
to two win for the Guardians last night over the Twins.
And it's a big one. So the Guardians and the Yankees,
(24:20):
both with eighty nine wins, dead tied with very few
games left and the number one seed in the American
League on the line. By the way, on the National
League side, Dodgers playing very well, Philly started really hot,
not playing so well. Both tied with ninety one wins
for the top seed in the National League playoffs. Some
things taking shape in Major League Baseball. If you're just
(24:41):
waking up, election is forty seven days away and the
polls show a dead heat. The Postmaster General is rejecting
any claims that we can't handle mail in ballots. After all,
we handle millions and millions of pieces of junk mail
every day. We're up for this. And if you fell
asleep last night like the Patriots, the Jets won twenty
four to three. And Thursday Night football, and a new
study says the United States has the worst healthcare system
(25:04):
among wealthy nations. Why is that and what is dragging
us down? We always give the final story to Rory
Salo to your morning show. National correspondent Rory O'Neil good morning.
Hey Michael, I'm not so sure we're wealthy anymore, but
that's not you know, you got me a lot of
trouble yesterday. Don't do it again today. Uh oh, what
(25:25):
did I do yesterday? Well, when we were kind of
put in perspective that there are three branches of government
that we're obsessed with the presidency and you know, it's
understandable that some people are struggling with that, but there's
a lot of checks and balances and a lot of
things to keep your eye on. And some people thought
we were, you know, downplaying the importance of the presidency. No,
it's important, Commander in chief, Foreign policy, executive branch, veto powers.
(25:49):
I mean, we understand it. But you know, there's a
Congress too, and there's a judicial branch too, and as
you pointed out, there's a school board and zoning board.
But anyway, Yeah, so I don't know how rich we are.
But if you want to call us wealthy at thirty
five trillion and growing in debt compared to other wealthy nations,
(26:09):
what's dragging us down? Yeah?
Speaker 9 (26:11):
Availability and affordability are there two negative aspects of our healthcare?
According to the Commonwealth Fund, which does this ranking every year.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
People pay way too.
Speaker 9 (26:22):
Much out of pocket, and that means that they have
to often avoid skip that they skip those doctors appointments.
Oftentimes they don't even know their doctor they go so infrequently,
and that's a problem, and that produces a worse outcome.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
You know, down the road, we'll have to have a
serious discussion about loss of trust too. We can thank
COVID for that, but there's been a tremendous loss of
trust in the World Health Organization and the CDC. But
I contend there's a silent loss of trust even with
their local primary physician because of some of the things
about COVID and how it was handled. I would say,
(26:58):
we're terrible at mental health. And I would say the
only thing worse than solving a problem is thinking you
solved it. Obamacare did not ensure everyone, it did not
lower premiums, and it did not improve the delivery of
health care to the American people. Sounds like we really
I'm not buying the whole narrative that a government solution
is what's necessary, But I am honest and looking at
(27:18):
our healthcare system has yet to be improved. We have
yet to address the problem and to.
Speaker 9 (27:25):
Point out the three top countries they have are the Netherlands,
the UK and Germany, but they stress no healthcare system
is perfect and every one of them needs some improvement.
They just said that the US was pointed to availability
and affordability as two of the top issues.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
You know, we've had this discussion for decades where we're
down to one minute, so I'm going to try to
talk less than you, But we've had this discussion for decades.
The one that's the crisis is the and this is
part of the social dilemment. A lot of other things
in the vitriol and divide in our country, but mental health, depression, loneliness,
aside alcohol abuse, drug abuse in order to self medicate,
(28:05):
and you try to get somebody to get mental health
and get into a psychiatrist when something important is going
on and you just simply can't get in and the
affordability is just not there. This is the growing crisis,
and this is the real blind spot in our healthcare system.
We better address it. It's a ticking time bomb.
Speaker 9 (28:23):
Right and the fact that the first point of contact
for many people to get medical care is an emergency
room is the worst way to deliver it.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
In ten seconds fifteen seconds. What's on the Weekend Dive.
Speaker 9 (28:36):
We've got so gosh more on the PDD trial and
what's going on there.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
We'll talk about the interest rate cuts.
Speaker 9 (28:41):
Saw also that professor who has the nineteen or thirteen
keys to winning a presidential election.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
We've got his call us. If you miss it during
the week, don't miss it on the weekend. The Weekend
Dive with Roy O'Neil heard on many iheartstations, but you
can find it on your iHeart app. We'll talk again Monday, Rory.
We're all in this together.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
This is your morning show with Michael Hell, Joe nowh
Hey, it's me Michael. 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, well two.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Three, starting your morning off right, A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding because we're in.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
This togid this is your morning show, Michael, Bill Trump.
You know the best part of waking up really is
that's actually Krispy Krean the coffee in your guy, Oh,
just coffee in gym right, Well, it's the commisial with folders.
But I don't drink folders, so I kind of turned
(00:45):
into a somewhere between Duncan Donuts and Krispy Krean. Really,
why are we getting our coffee from donut people? I
don't know. Hey, if you're just waking up seven minutes
after the hour, thanks for waking up with your morning
show on the Aaron streaming live on your iHeartRadio app.
It's going to be a tough weekend for the National
Football League and cities of your morning show. Interests. The
(01:06):
Cardinals and the Lions. I think is going to be
a sensational game. Cardinals are playing very well. They're capable
of beating the Lions, but that should be a great matchup.
Commanders and the way the Bengals are playing right now,
that could be a tough one. There's an old expression
in football, you can't win if you can't score, and
the Titans can't score, that's going to be a problem
against the Packers. The Cowboys have to bounce back after
(01:28):
being slapped around by the Saints, but they got the
Ravens all the more. And I think maybe the best
game of the weekend could be the Eagles and the Saints.
But good luck to your team this weekend, of course,
got plenty of college football. But in the meantime, we've
got news and we must understand, and sometimes it's best
to get it straight from the hoist's mouth. Suffer not
(01:48):
thy commander at Chief Hunter thee Hail to the Chief.
He's the one we all say hell to. He has
the power because he takes a shower. Ladies and gentlemen,
good morning, mister President's.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Being called a horse. Okay, you said the horse's mouth,
and I just have to say this about that, because
if you called me a horse, I think Tim Walls
might get excited. We don't want him to get excited.
But we're looking at it. I like to be called
the goat, greatest of old time. That's what it is,
the goat's mouth. We love that, all right, straight, we're
(02:23):
doing very well.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Yeah, you know, this was doing very well, very very
very very interesting week. Okay, so the first one you
take a shot to the head, to the ear. This
time those shot gets off. But a second assassination at
timp is one plus one two.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
One plus one is two. And they were two attempts.
And I told Secret Service, you know, I saw the
guy before they saw the guy you did. And I
saw him and I said, give me my three wood
and they said, sir, They said, sir, this is a
long hole. It's a part five. I said, give me
(03:00):
three would and I was going to take him out,
but he was so far off to the right and
I never slice, so they took him out for me.
But I was going to do it. I was going
to put my golden golf ball. You know, I have
the golden golf ball, and I was going to put
it right between the ice. It wasn't on the fairway,
and I don't know how to hit it into the rough.
I don't know how to hit it into the trees.
(03:21):
I've nen't done anything like that. So they took him out.
But I was very upset because I had a putt
for birdie. It was a beautiful birdie, and they wouldn't
let me finish the hole. They got him out, they
wouldn't let me finish the hole. It was actually a
putt for eagle, but we called it a bertie and
identified as an eagle. But they wouldn't let me finish
(03:43):
the hole. And we were very upset about it. But
these people are sick people. And the craziest thing about it,
he wore salmon to an assassination that Tim, Who the
hell does that? I never would have done that. You
shouldn't have done that.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
You think of everything, You think of everything. I don't
think him. Are you concerned? Because two, they're gonna get
to news conference in a second, But the fact that
he was there for twelve hours doesn't that concern you?
That nobody checked the perimeter. They you know, I know
it was an unplanned event, but you often golf. They
had enough notice to do a sweep of the they're
(04:15):
still struggling with perimeters.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
In you they're having a very hard time. And if
I was in charge of that, we'd have the greatest
perimeter of the world has ever seen. But we didn't
have a good perimeter. But they still did a fantastic
job getting him out of there. And this guy's a
whack job. You look at him, he's a complete and
total whack job. He went over to Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine,
(04:37):
and they told him we don't want you. He said,
I want to fight for Ukraine. They said, you are
a crazy person. We don't want you, and that got
him very upset. As you know, I got along very
well with Putin, I got along very well with Zelinski,
and I will end the Ukraine War in twenty four hours.
We're going to get on the phone. We're going to
(04:57):
talk about it. Like we talked to him, Dual, you
know what I'm doing. Well. We love Abdul. I said, Abdul,
you have a beautiful house. We're not going to have
any problems. He said, We're not going to have any problems.
We looked at it. We said, we're going to drone
ail out of your house. Well, maybe we'll give in
one of those big beautiful paters that has all I got.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
You know, boy, what do you make of that? What
do you make of that? The paper?
Speaker 3 (05:19):
These are tremendous bombs. You have the pager. They had
quite an explosive day, I can tell you that, and
not the way they wanted to because they have done
it insertar ways. But we will give these people beepers
if they don't behave themselves. So we'll have the war
handled in twenty four hours. But this guy was a
(05:40):
whack and he got in the perimeter and he never
should have been there, and we got to fix that
because we have a lot of problems.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Forty seven, by the way, Fridays with forty five forty
seven days till the election, polls showed a dead heat
between you and Kamala Harris. Do you believe it's that close?
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Well, I'm actually up by a lot. We know that
I'm up by lot, and the polls are crazy. These
people are crazy. Did you watch the interview with the
word challad Queen and Oprah who's reading a salad in
old life. By the way you look at her, she's
never eaten the salad. Yesterday was Oprah's first exposure to
Salad said it wasn't the one that she needs. You
(06:18):
look at us, She's like a balloon. It's incredible, and
she goes from big Tasaul. We don't know. She's the
only person maybe Ozepik hasn't worked for. But we'll see
what happens. I think you know who should think it's sloppy,
You know, Chris Christy. He should probably try and he
had a hard time. He broke the lap band. Nobody's
ever seen anything like it before. But it's not that close.
(06:39):
This person to that Kamala. They call her Kamala. I
call her the cackling comrade communist Kamala Harris. Okay, that
was one of the worst interviews I think I've ever seen.
She says, we have the right to have dreams and
we have the right to rightfully make a right on
rent from the right lane. It's incredible. This woman has
(07:02):
no idea what the health he's talking about? Are you
going to lower the cost of living? Well, we have
dreams and aspirations and the right to make rights rightfully
with right and left, and nobody knows what the health
he's talking about. The polls aren't that close. They say
it's a dead heat. No, we're up by a lot.
Nobody wants to adlant, but we want to get everybody
(07:22):
out and we want to be too big to rig.
That's what we're calling it, too big to rig.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Well, you know the Black Journalist's interview, that was the
first time she didn't show up. You did. You were
abused by the ABC reporter, but your comeback was spectacular,
and then she gets the softballs and the love treatment
from the same journalists. It's, you know, unless somebody's going
to love on her and cover for her, she's not
interested in doing any interviews. But we're talking about the
(07:49):
race being a dead heat according to the polls, and
that makes North Carolina and George are very important for you, Arizona, Nevata,
Avery for you, and you got to take one Wisconsin,
Michigan or Pennsylvania. And yet you were in New York
and while you were there, you really believe that you
can win New York. And I don't think you're crazy.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Well, of course I'm not crazy. I'm one of the
smartest people in the world has ever seen. You know.
I talk to a very good friend who knows a
lot of people in New York. You may have heard
of him. His name is Robert F. Kennedy Junior. We
call him, call him the guy. He's a good guy.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
We call him Bobby.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
He's a great guy. Said Bobby, what do you think
about New York? He said, sir, you're going to win.
I said, that's a smart guy. This Bobby is a
smart guy. We love him. We were in New York.
We were at what's called the Nassau Coliseum with a
great New York Islanders played the main history. They're four strengths,
family cups. They call it the Barn. We rocked the
(08:46):
Barn like nobody's ever seen. We think we're going to
win New York. You know, we're not up by too
much there, but we're up by a lot. Even though
a lot of people say you're down, sir, you're down thirteen.
We're not down thirteen. You have a governor of New York.
We call her the buck tooth Bandit. She's from Buffalo,
Kathy Huncle. You see her. She looks like Roger Rabbit.
(09:08):
You have no idea what the hell she says? Jesse
mugs Bunny. She's a terrible person. She's from Buffalo, which
means she was born sideways. You know, we can explain
that another day. But she's got a lot of problems.
You have Eric Adams. People are residing from his administration
left to right. He's a horrible mayor. He was almost
as bad as Bill Deblasio. We call him big Burn.
(09:31):
You look at him. But you have a lot of
problems in New York and they want to fix it.
I said, what do you have to lose? We're rocking
the barn and we're going to win New York by
a lot. You'll see what happens.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Ah, hang on a second, catch my breath. Closing moments
Friday with forty five? What do you call call You
don't call him Robert, no pizza boy.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
We call him Bobby sixteen thousand times and we call
him Bobby, And I think, what's going to happen? You
love hearing me say it so much, you're gonna think
your name to Bobby. Are you gonna say this is
your morning show? This is your morning show with Bobby
del Journal. Look at that increase. You can't do that.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
My dad was Bob del Giorno and he's a Hall
of Fame Radio personality of over sixty years. So I can't.
I can't do Bobby, But I like I like you
for a long time.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
By the way, I've known him for a long time.
He's a tremendous person. He's a great guy.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Bobby d all right, bottom line, forty seven days ago. Uh,
what what's the priority? What's the strategy?
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Well, we want people to get out. It's called bank
you vote. We want you to bank you vote.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
And like you know basketball, and you bank it off
the backboard. I've never done that, by the way. Whenever
I take a shot, I got Michael Jordan a lot.
It's they call it nothing but net nothing and it
barely touches the net. Two perfect shots, like my phone calls.
But we have the greatest we have the greatest election
coming up, the most important election coming up. And if
(10:58):
you watch the brah ozempic interview with Kamala Harris, you
will see that she has a lot of problems and
we cannot let her any of the White House. So
we are going to win. We're going to win bigger
and better than anybody's ever seen before. And we're very
excited about it. Forty seven days ago and we're very
excited about it. Vote early, Thank you vote, and get
(11:20):
other people to come with you, so we're sing to ring.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
There you have it. By the way, you made me
sweat Today, there's Friday with forty five Hell to the Chief.
He's the one we all say he'll do. Thank you,
mister President, Thank you so.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
Much, pizza boy, or should I say Bobby, You're a
great day.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
I think he's caught on the fact that I like
to hear him say Bobby. I don't know why that
Bobby makes me sweat. Seventeen minutes after the hour, your
top five stories of the day or next as your
morning show continues with Bobby at eighteen after the hour. Oh,
this is your morning show with Michael do Tuna Risenshein.
Welcome to Friday, the twentieth of September, And if you're
(11:59):
just waking up, the election is forty seven days away
and the polls show Harrison Trump deadlocked. The Postmaster General
is rejecting any claims that we cannot handle this amount
of mail. Why we handle junk mail every day, we
can handle ballots. And the GOP urging Nebraska to become
a winners to take all states. So interesting when you
look at the electoral college map, the role that one
district in Nebraska could potentially play depending how certain states fall,
(12:25):
and the Los Angeles Dodgers stars showhet Otani. I mean,
first of all, the notion that he's a pitcher. He's
not pitching right now because of injury, but the notion
this is a pitcher, this is so babe Ruth. He
hit his fiftieth home run last night. What makes that significant?
Fifty home runs and fifty stolen bases? Not impressed. It's
(12:47):
never happened before in the history of the game of baseball.
He is extraordinary and one of a kind. And if
you fell asleep during Thursday night football, you're not alone.
So did the Patriots they got walloped by the Jets
twenty four to three. You're a big tennis fan, John
Decker joining US White House correspondent. Who's your football team?
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (13:06):
I love football? Absolutely pretty impressive. What Aaron Rodgers is
doing at the age of forty years old pretty unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Is that your favorite team?
Speaker 3 (13:15):
Though?
Speaker 5 (13:15):
What is?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Are you a No? That's not my.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Favorite team, But I'm impressed by his athletic feats. How
could you not be as well as show Hey Otani. Wow,
what an athlete he I mean, incredible.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Can you believe that fifty home runs and fifty believe.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
N RBIs in one game. That's that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
It's yeah, He's just you know, you just know, like
you remember when we were younger watching Michael Jordan and
there was just something, or when we went through the
Tiger Woods experience. Okay, we've never seen this. I've been
a baseball fan my whole life. I've been a baseball
player my entire life. I've never seen that.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
This.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
This must have been what it was like watching Babe Ruth,
somebody that can do this many different things.
Speaker 4 (13:57):
So well, I know it. And you know, there are
very few people around who can say they saw Babe
Ruth play. And that's the incredible thing about show Heyotani
is that you can see him right now and you can,
you know, one day, tell your grandkids, I saw shoe
Heyo Tani play in the Major League.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Yeah, and I did. In Saint Louis. I went to
the Cardinals game just to see Otani went over five
one night. I thought, Hi, Jason, all right, so we
do have the threat of a government shut down, although
I'm not opposed to one. We don't think it's really
going to come to that. Nobody's going to allow a
government shut down forty seven days before an election, right
(14:36):
I wouldn't think.
Speaker 4 (14:37):
So. I think that cooler heads will prevail, And for
Republicans in particular, I think they have to recognize that
they would be blamed if there was a government shutdown.
We saw that bill fail the other day on the
floor of the House, and now there's a bipartisan effort
to keep the government funded for three months with a
continuing resolution that has no amendments attached to it. It's
(14:59):
a clean that to me is likely to ultimately pass
the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
So we had a caller from yesterday who took offense
to what Rory and I were talking about, and I
think she took a little lot of kind of context.
You're a White House correspondent and you're also a Supreme
Court bar attorney, but that would suggest you know a
thing or two about the law, and we are a
government of law as we're a republic. Do you think
America is, like never before, overly obsessed on one branch
(15:32):
of government right now? Then they should be.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
No. I mean, every four years, this is what we
focus on. We focus on the presidency. We focus on
the White House because this election is every four years
and because of all the power associated with the presidency.
So no, I think it's understandable, and especially when you
factor in if it's a fifty to fifty Senate, that
is a possibility. Whoever controls the White House will determine
(15:59):
who can trolls the US Senate.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
And certainly there's a lot of dysfunction for all the
branches of government. I mean, presidents exceed their powers, and
that's what Congress is there to stop. I think morally,
we've kind of abandoned a god. Therefore, every now and
then the Supreme Court becomes like God, and then the
Congress has become quite dysfunctional, the Club of one hundred.
The Senate really views themselves as the leaders of the
(16:21):
country as opposed to protecting states rights. And the House
members have been very unproductive. I think the last two
Congresses have been the least productive in American history. So
there's a lot of dysfunction to sort through. But in
this issue that we're talking about, we tend to think
of debt as Obama, Trump, Biden, and whoever is next.
(16:42):
You know, there is a Congress presiding over this ridiculous
budget and taking us deeper and deeper into debt.
Speaker 4 (16:49):
Right, it's their responsibility. It's their responsibility to pass a
budget and then that budget is either signed or vetoed
by the President. But this is the reason why we
send our lawmakers to Washington, because their responsibility every year
is figure out how much money the government can spend
(17:09):
for every department and every agency in the federal government.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
So the real question is how much political jockeying before
they settle this. I think that seems to kind of expired.
I expect them to have a deal by early next
week because they're just out of hay to make out
of it. Well, I think that's right.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
You know, look at the deadline. The deadline of the
new fiscal year begins October the first, so not much
time to as you put it, jockey, you know.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
And go back and forth.
Speaker 4 (17:37):
You need to get something in place. And you know,
Republicans recognize Mitch McConnell, the leader for Republicans in the Senate,
he's been out there saying we're going to get blamed.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
We're going to get blamed if.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
There's a government shutdown, which would ruin our chances if
you're in the Senate of flipping the Senate or Republicans
in the House from holding onto the House of Representatives.
So there's a lot at stake as a lates the
possibility of a government shutdown.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
If we were to ask what's the big sticking point
at this moment, what would you identify?
Speaker 4 (18:09):
At this point? You know, it's just there's just a
I would say, a dozen House Republicans that are listening
to everything that the former president says, and they were
the ones that wanted to go along with this amendment
that is an unnecessary amendment attached to the CR. And
(18:29):
if you know, I think that what will likely happen
is there's going to be a strong bipartisan effort to
fund the government, ignore those twelve or so House Republicans,
and ultimately pass a stopgap spending bill, a continuing resolution
to fund the government through December. And then you know what, Michael,
we're going to be talking about the same thing. Could
(18:50):
we get to that deadline?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
It's endless, it's endless, it's ver But I would say
on that one, it doesn't It's not that we don't
need a law. It's not that we need a law
on voting. It's that we need to enforce the laws
we have. And so that's where it starts feeling like
political grand standing. So I'm with you. There's not a
whole lot here that's really a debate. This is pure politics.
(19:12):
They're going to do the continuing resolution and we're all
going to be further in debt and pay for it.
But I suspect this will be resolved early next week.
I don't think they take it all the way to
the thirtieth because the grand standing isn't gaining you anything.
It's hurting you. It's almost hurting you as much as
if you let the government go unfunded.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
Yeah, you're right about that. I agree.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Well, you know what, Decker, we shouldn't be agreeing so much.
What's happening in this world?
Speaker 4 (19:37):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
It's one of those weeks, Michael. It's just one of
those weeks. All right, Well you have next week. We'll
disagree with more things out there.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
No, you're one of my favorite parts of this show.
You have a great weekend, get some rest watching for
our teams, and we'll see you on Monday. I'm just
waking up forty three minutes after the hour. Here are
the top five stories of the day. Well, it's pretty simple.
Trump spent time with the Jewish voting block and talking
about the importance of Israel. Kamala Harris had a love
(20:08):
fest at a stage livestream event with Oprah Winfrey and
much of Hollywood. Brian Shook was covering both.
Speaker 7 (20:17):
Road to the White House twenty twenty four. Former President
Trump gave remarks that the Israeli American Council's National Summit
in Washington, d C.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
On Thursday, more than any people on Earth, Israel has
to defeat her. I really believe that is a disaster
for Israel.
Speaker 7 (20:36):
Trump spoke on what may happen for Israel if Kamala
Harris was elected, while also promising to reinstate his travel ban.
He went on to add that the upcoming election is
the most important election in the history of Israel. The
Fighting Anti Semitism in America event also featured Miriam Addelson,
the widow of longtime GOP donor Sheldon Adelson, and other
(20:59):
Jewish leaders in Washington. I'm Brian Shook.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Well, the FED surprised a lot of pundits cutting the
interest rate a half, not a quarter. Wall Street loved it,
the dows at a record high forty two thousand, and
President Biden loved it too. Mark Mayfield has more.
Speaker 5 (21:15):
Biden spoke before the Economic Club of Washington d C.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
I'm not here to take a victory lab.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
I'm not here to say the job well done.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
I'm not here to say we don't have a hell
of a lot more work to do. We do have
more work to do.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
Biden City expects rates to eventually fall even further. The
Central Bank cunt rates by half a point on Wednesday.
The decision lowers the federal funds rate to arrange between
four point seventy five to five percent. Interest rates had
remained at their highest level in number two decades. Since
July of last year. They Fed had maintained a goal
of lowering inflation two two percent. August saw the twelve
month inflation rate fall to two and a half percent,
(21:51):
its lowest level since February of twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
I'm Markneyfield. Forty seven days still the election and the
polls showed that Harris and Trump are deadlocked. According to
a survey by the New York Times, The Philadelphia Inquirer,
and Siena College both have the race tied forty seven
percent among nearly twenty five hundred likely voters. In Pennsylvania,
Harris has a four point advantage over Donald Trump. But
(22:15):
remember there's the old under polling for Trump that's anywhere
from two to five points. The state is one of
three what we believe to be very key. Donald Trump
has to get Nevada and Arizona. He's leading secure that.
He has to get North Carolina and Georgia and secure that,
and then he's got to take either a district in
(22:36):
Nebraska or Michigan, Wisconsin, or Pennsylvania. So that poll being
Pennsylvania becomes very very key. Good news for a change.
Cancer deaths in the US are on the decline, Tammy
Trehilo reports.
Speaker 6 (22:50):
That's according to our report released by the American Association
for Cancer Research, which found that the cancer death rate
went down by thirty three percent between nineteen ninety one
and twenty twenty one. The cancer death rate for children
in adolescence is also dropped by twenty four percent in
the past two decades. The report cited early detection, lower
smoking rates, and improvements in treatment as reasons for the decline,
(23:12):
but the authors warn that alcohol is still a lesser
known risk factor and excessive levels of consumption can increase
the risk of certain types of cancer, including breast cancer
and liver cancer. I'm Tammy Trhio.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
By the way, the links between obesity and cancer are
also high, which makes this a very important story. After all,
today is National Snack Day.
Speaker 8 (23:34):
It's National string cheese Day, the protein packed, local, pull
and eat snack we've been eating since nineteen seventy six
and it's all created by science. If you heat mozzarella
cheese to one hundred and forty degrees, it stretches the
length of the milk proteins and that allows strips to
be pulled off. The National Dairy Council says ninety six
percent of US peel to eat, but there's a movement
(23:56):
online to call people who don't peel monsters.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
I'm pre tennant. I'm Jim Schultz in Tampa and my
morning show is your Morning Show with Michael Gills Jornan.
Thanks for waking up with your morning show. I got
to do this for Scott Cosimore, a native from Cleveland
and a Guardian fan that was a walk off three
to two win for the Guardians last night over the Twins.
And it's a big one. So the Guardians and the Yankees,
(24:20):
both with eighty nine wins, dead tied with very few
games left and the number one seed in the American
League on the line. By the way, on the National
League side, Dodgers playing very well, Philly started really hot,
not playing so well. Both tied with ninety one wins
for the top seed in the National League playoffs. Some
things taking shape in Major League Baseball. If you're just
(24:41):
waking up, election is forty seven days away and the
polls show a dead heat. The Postmaster General is rejecting
any claims that we can't handle mail in ballots. After all,
we handle millions and millions of pieces of junk mail
every day. We're up for this. And if you fell
asleep last night like the Patriots, the Jets won twenty
four to three. And Thursday Night football, and a new
study says the United States has the worst healthcare system
(25:04):
among wealthy nations. Why is that and what is dragging
us down? We always give the final story to Rory
Salo to your morning show. National correspondent Rory O'Neil good morning.
Hey Michael, I'm not so sure we're wealthy anymore, but
that's not you know, you got me a lot of
trouble yesterday. Don't do it again today. Uh oh, what
(25:25):
did I do yesterday? Well, when we were kind of
put in perspective that there are three branches of government
that we're obsessed with the presidency and you know, it's
understandable that some people are struggling with that, but there's
a lot of checks and balances and a lot of
things to keep your eye on. And some people thought
we were, you know, downplaying the importance of the presidency. No,
it's important, Commander in chief, Foreign policy, executive branch, veto powers.
(25:49):
I mean, we understand it. But you know, there's a
Congress too, and there's a judicial branch too, and as
you pointed out, there's a school board and zoning board.
But anyway, Yeah, so I don't know how rich we are.
But if you want to call us wealthy at thirty
five trillion and growing in debt compared to other wealthy nations,
(26:09):
what's dragging us down? Yeah?
Speaker 9 (26:11):
Availability and affordability are there two negative aspects of our healthcare?
According to the Commonwealth Fund, which does this ranking every year.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
People pay way too.
Speaker 9 (26:22):
Much out of pocket, and that means that they have
to often avoid skip that they skip those doctors appointments.
Oftentimes they don't even know their doctor they go so infrequently,
and that's a problem, and that produces a worse outcome.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
You know, down the road, we'll have to have a
serious discussion about loss of trust too. We can thank
COVID for that, but there's been a tremendous loss of
trust in the World Health Organization and the CDC. But
I contend there's a silent loss of trust even with
their local primary physician because of some of the things
about COVID and how it was handled. I would say,
(26:58):
we're terrible at mental health. And I would say the
only thing worse than solving a problem is thinking you
solved it. Obamacare did not ensure everyone, it did not
lower premiums, and it did not improve the delivery of
health care to the American people. Sounds like we really
I'm not buying the whole narrative that a government solution
is what's necessary, But I am honest and looking at
(27:18):
our healthcare system has yet to be improved. We have
yet to address the problem and to.
Speaker 9 (27:25):
Point out the three top countries they have are the Netherlands,
the UK and Germany, but they stress no healthcare system
is perfect and every one of them needs some improvement.
They just said that the US was pointed to availability
and affordability as two of the top issues.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
You know, we've had this discussion for decades where we're
down to one minute, so I'm going to try to
talk less than you, But we've had this discussion for decades.
The one that's the crisis is the and this is
part of the social dilemment. A lot of other things
in the vitriol and divide in our country, but mental health, depression, loneliness,
aside alcohol abuse, drug abuse in order to self medicate,
(28:05):
and you try to get somebody to get mental health
and get into a psychiatrist when something important is going
on and you just simply can't get in and the
affordability is just not there. This is the growing crisis,
and this is the real blind spot in our healthcare system.
We better address it. It's a ticking time bomb.
Speaker 9 (28:23):
Right and the fact that the first point of contact
for many people to get medical care is an emergency
room is the worst way to deliver it.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
In ten seconds fifteen seconds. What's on the Weekend Dive.
Speaker 9 (28:36):
We've got so gosh more on the PDD trial and
what's going on there.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
We'll talk about the interest rate cuts.
Speaker 9 (28:41):
Saw also that professor who has the nineteen or thirteen
keys to winning a presidential election.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
We've got his call us. If you miss it during
the week, don't miss it on the weekend. The Weekend
Dive with Roy O'Neil heard on many iheartstations, but you
can find it on your iHeart app. We'll talk again Monday, Rory.
We're all in this together.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
This is your morning show with Michael Hell, Joe nowh
