Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, I'm Michael, and your morning show is heard on
great radio stations across the country like one oh five,
nine twelve fifty w HNZ and Tampa, Florida, News Radio
five seventy wkb N and Youngstown, Ohio and News Radio
one thousand KTOK in Oklahoma City. Love to have you
listen to us live in the morning, and of course
we're so grateful you came for the podcast. Enjoy well

(00:21):
two three, starting your morning off right, A new way
of talk, a new way of understanding.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Well, because we're in this stage.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
This is your morning show with Michael O'Dell join. Nobody
takes their job more serious than I do. Dennby. Every
morning I'm slaving over a hot microphone for you. Welcome
to Wednesday, September the twenty This week's already half over.
We're gonna blanket. It's the weekend again. I know, right.
We have got to seize the moment of understanding. Welcome

(00:52):
to Wednesday, September the twenty fifth on the Aaron streaming
live on your iHeartRadio app. I'm Michael, that's Jeffrey and
good morning. Can't have your morning show without your voice.
As I shamelessly plug on your iHeartRadio app. And this
better than the way we used to do it. Call uh,
some guy answers, what do you want to talk to
Michael about? And then he either hangs up on you
and put you on hold and you rop there Fred

(01:13):
now stead, I'll be with you up. I work for
the greatest company in the world. You go to your
iHeart radio app. There's a microphone. You can ask any
question you want, make any comment you want. A lot
of people record there. I'm so and so from such
and such, and my morning show is your morning show
with Michael del Journal. That's not to pump me up.
That's for you to introduce yourself to your fellow American
neighbors at the kitchen table. But this one just to

(01:35):
show you that nobody works harder than me, nobody is
more in touch with what's going on than me. To
Wisconsin for some curds and cheese. This morning. We go
on the talk.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
Back by many here in wm Eqisconsin, Monomony, Wisconsin. And
you always admit our teams and you're run down of sports.
We have a team for baseball called the Brewers. We
have a football team too, called the Packers. So please

(02:09):
keep that in mind phenomenon with gus WM EQ Packers Brewers.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
So apparently I was just a bit outside. Yes, I
go all the way back to Robin Yut. Trust me,
I know the brew crew, uh. And I know the
Green Bay Packers in Botskall. What I didn't know is
we're on in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. W I'm honestly I
won't add the Brewers. Of course, all the matters are
heading into the playoffs. I think they're the third seed

(02:36):
behind the Dodgers and the Phillies, who seem to be
in a league of their own. But stranger things have happened.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
And the Packers are a very good football team. So
we got to add the pack and the Brewers to
our scores every day. Put on your scores on the morning,
you know. So you think somebody would tell me that,
Well they just do. You know what else? They just
found out and looking at we're also on an ames Iowa.
I didn't know that they got a team. Well, no,
there's nothing. The goodness, there's nothing in Iowa. But it
would have been nice to know we were on in Wisconsin.

(03:04):
I would have never left the Packers and the Brewers up.
You see, this is why we have the talkback beind
what were we gonna say was I'll just make a
note of it and put it on a card so
you can read it in the morning. You'll remember. Maybe
we'll get Mike mccannon to do a tribute to eau Claire. Well,
where would we be without cheese? You could do it

(03:27):
if you're just waking up. Well, I guess good news
for Louisiana. They got pounded by the last hurricane and
it was it could have been worse. It wasn't a
storm service issue, it wasn't really a flooding issue. It
was a power outage issue. But the forecasters think Tropical
Storm Helene will be a Category three by the time
it makes landfall in Florida on Thursday night. Roy O'Neill
is in Florida, so we'll get a report from him

(03:47):
coming up. But storm search could be a huge issue.
Don't forget. We always say Tampa now, but it used
to be called Tampa Bay. There's a big that can
fill up, spill over and flood, So this could become
a very very serious weather event for Florida. We're going

(04:07):
to keep an eye on that with Rory coming up.
Biden told world leaders there's some things that are more
important than staying in power, really, and Congress is passing
a bill to boost Secret Service protection for presidential candidates.
We had a big, long journey of discovery and I
kind of pulled to Jesus where I did a big
long analogy and everybody probably wondered where I was going,
And I was just showing people how we can get

(04:30):
blind to certain realities based on perceptions or what really
translates to focus. You see, if we're really focused on
America and not Republicans versus Democrats and power. And by
the way, when I'm speaking to you the American people,

(04:50):
I understand a Republican gets elected in a district in
a state and then goes to Washington. But then he
becomes a part of a team, and his goal no
longer remains representing you and bringing your voice. It becomes
getting along because if he stands up against his party,
like my representative did for years, Scott Dejarlais, your party

(05:14):
turns on you and tries to get you one elected.
There's an old fashioned old Testament scripture of God before you,
who can be against you. It didn't work against Scott
de Jarlena won't work against you if you stand up.
But you often send someone to be your representative, to
be your voice, and then they go there and they
cease being your voice and become another peg in a

(05:37):
party system. The two party system is failing America and
how they've suckered you in the last five to ten years,
especially through social media, into playing this vicious political game
that ends with, let's say, best case scenario for most
of you listening, Republicans control the House, Republicans control the Senate,
and Donald Trump is in the presidency and the White House.

(05:58):
What did you win, because there's an R in control,
that's a win for you, depends what they do. Consistently,
they've spent you, whether it's a Republican a D or
an R. They've spent you into thirty six trillion dollars
in debt that you're paying for in inflation. I love
when they say, well, Republicans lower your taxes. Yeah, but

(06:20):
they raised the debt, which raises inflation, which is really
the biggest tax of all. But if your focus was
on this nation, and your focus was on the problems
and the mistakes we've made in writing them, you wouldn't
care if it's an R and I or a D.

(06:40):
Just get in there and fix it.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
Now.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
The truth of the matter is, we did a Gallup
poll in nine of the ten key issues. Republicans lead
nine of them. If this really was about our problems,
if it really was about issues, Donald Trump would be
leading in the landslide. But he's not. Somebody's playing a
game with you, and they're all competing to distract you.
Stop playing the two party game, Stop playing the US

(07:04):
versus them. Be a dutiful citizen laser focused on our
constitutional roadmap and intent. I was watching the Apollo thirteen documentary,
which is a lot like Thirteen Days. If you ever
watched Ron Howard's movie Apollo thirteen, it's dead on inaccurate.
Why because he used the actual audio and the accounts

(07:30):
of the people, with the exception of one who had died,
who were actually on Apollo thirteen. And that's why you
have an accurate movie. So I will say a shout
out to Ron Howard Richie Cunningham. In watching this documentary,
it was nothing that wasn't in the movie. The people

(07:51):
just weren't as good looking. Keeps that simple shout out
to Gary Sinise, who looks great in sixty slacks. But anyway,
I digress, because he did it same thing with thirteen Days.
They used effect. If you ever I don't expect you
to have the fascination with Kennedy I did. But if
you ever go to the Kennedy library, there is hundreds

(08:14):
of hours of tapes. You can hear them on the phone,
you can hear them in meetings. But most of that
movie was taken directly from the meetings verbatim. It wasn't
a script. It was a recreation. But the most pivotal
moment was not the chaos in space that seems certain

(08:35):
to end in death for the three astronauts. It was
the chaos on the ground in Houston. You see, it's
easy when everything goes well in a mission to have
what they call comtrollers, and everybody has their little area
of expertise, and when everything's going fine, everything's a go, go, medical, go,

(09:00):
thrust to go. But when it all hits the fan
and goes chaos, everybody starts screaming and pointing fingers, and
Gene Krantz at one point says, and you can hear him,
and he does it in the movie Ed Harris, and
he does it in real life and you can see
it in the documentary. Hey hey, hey, everybody, quiet, quiet,

(09:21):
focus on the problem. We don't need other things distracting us.
Focus on what is and what we know in solving
It's the key. Every other solution after that starts with that.
I feel like Gene Krantz today. Stop stop playing their game.

(09:43):
It ends with them in power, you further in debt,
and more enslaved. Stop playing it. Focus on the problem.
The border, it's porous. Terrorists, criminals, illegals are coming through.
Drug as they're coming through that are leading to death
an overdose. Focus on the economy, the prosperity of businesses

(10:07):
and its employees. Stop with all the race division, all
the gender division, all the wealth division. Focus on the problem,
not what they're distracting you with. How good are they
a distracting especially with the media, especially with social media,
enough to where Republicans lead nine out of ten issues,

(10:27):
and this race is a dead heat and Donald Trump
could very well lose. And that's what Americans admitting they
know what the problem is, they know who caused it,
and they know who can solve it. Then we went
through this other analogy that I used oldies radio for
to show you how you can get so out of focus.

(10:49):
But if your focus was on the demo, we want
the most listeners twenty five to fifty four. Well, guess what,
you don't play late fifties and early sixties music because
those people add up to be sixty five years at
the youngest. Why would you do it, Well, because we've
always done it, because that's the music I like. Okay, Well,
then you're not true to the demo anymore. You're not
true to the Constitution, You're not true to our republic.

(11:10):
I said, our biggest problem is not Kamala Harris, is
not Donald Trump, is not Republicans, It's not democrats. It's
the people. You're focused on the wrong thing, and for what?

Speaker 2 (11:23):
Because of what?

Speaker 1 (11:23):
Because of what? I'm trying to think of somebody Brett
behar and Martha what's her name McCollum, I think what
she's saying, what I can't even name the Dana bash
is saying. That's why this Sound of the Day was
my favorite and maybe the only one I can get
it in this segment. Because I talk so much. I
got to learn to shut up. I've had this conversation

(11:46):
with David Snatti off the air, but this popped up
in a Sound of the Day feature. And by the way,
it's true and at least to something that we've been
talking about all week.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
Listen an article about CNN. This is fascinating.

Speaker 4 (12:03):
How many views do you think CNN got in prime
time for one week? Three hour segments every day primetime
for one week in May?

Speaker 3 (12:12):
What do you think?

Speaker 1 (12:13):
One show?

Speaker 4 (12:14):
One show, three hours for a week.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
She shouldn't have repeated that. She means it probably translated
to three shows. She's talking about Primetime is three hours nightly.
Add up the three hours of primetime nightly times five
days for the entire week. How many views do you
think they had?

Speaker 3 (12:29):
You?

Speaker 1 (12:29):
Ready, the cumulative of three three hour show correct?

Speaker 2 (12:34):
Five million?

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Maybe five million? That's the perception you ready for the answer?
Eighty three thousand. Now I want to take you back
in time, and I've done this with David Sinai. Let
me tell you something. Do you remember in the movies
the Sixth Sense? I see dead people and they're everywhere.

(12:57):
But the best part was the next line. It was
the next line, Man, they don't know they're dead. In
nineteen ninety four on an AM radio station in the
sixty fourth market in America KRMG, Tulsa, Oklahoma. I was

(13:19):
on in the afternoons from four to six pm, and
my weekly cume was eighty thousand. I was a nobody
in a medium market and I had more cue than
CNN has today. Why are you giving those voices so
much attention because nobody else is. In fact, I'm here

(13:43):
to tell you commercial television is already dead. Remember we
were talking earlier this week, these little videos of Donald
Trump in fast food restaurants or in the grocery stores
he was yesterday. That's what's reaching millions, not what ABCNBCCBS,
CNNMSNBC and Fox is saying. These major networks that you

(14:06):
think are such a big deal. Well, in the case
of CNN, they don't have any more listeners than I
had nineteen ninety five in Tulsa, Oklaholma. She finishes, that's.

Speaker 4 (14:16):
Crazy, lowest level of all time. Fox at the highest
was one hundred and eighty six thousand. Think about what
is happening right in front of us. The media is
no longer actually reaching the masses because they've lost complete
trust with them. In fact, thirty year olds Right now,
for the first time ever, thirty year olds have more
trust in you social media influencers than they do the
mainstream media. It's not the same for all age groups,

(14:39):
but that is what I am seeing right in front
of us, is we're like, show me what's real, because
I do not trust puppets who parrot things from teleprompters.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
So if you woke up this morning, you're going, man,
I'll tell you what. I don't know how people watch CNNMSNBC.
They don't have any credibility, and they're in the back pocket.
No one is and were the real minds and the
real votes are coming from not on anybody's radar. It's
as crazy as when in two thousand and three I

(15:07):
was telling an oldies station, why are you playing songs
in the fifties and sixties? If people love that music
they were between ten and twenty years old, that would
make them sixty five today. I thought your demo was
twenty five to fifty four. You shouldn't be playing anything
earlier than nineteen sixty eight. And they looked at me
like I was nuts, and they didn't do it. And

(15:28):
because they didn't do it, they birth classic hits a
format they wish they had today. I see dead people
and they're everywhere wait for it, and they don't know
they're dead. This is your Morning Show with Michael del Choino.

(15:49):
Here are the top five stories of the day. We
have President Biden telling world leaders that some things they're
just more important staying in power. Forecasters say tropical Storm
Helene likely to be a Category three hurricane before it
makes landfall sometime tomorrow night in Florida. And Ryan Ruth

(16:09):
is officially I know Ralph Ryan Ruth as he likes
to be called, is officially be charged with the attempted
assassination of a major presidential Canada. My dog is here.
You're Aaron rayaling me. You're getting me busted. Go Oh
he's so smart. No, you can go go, I might go.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
You've got puppies in the studio.

Speaker 1 (16:30):
Well, yes, kind of did. Sorry busted. Congress passing a
bill to boost secret service protection for the president. The
Postal Service is restarting. It's free at home COVID nineteen tests.
Oh yes, let's be focused on that when you're about
to process all the mail in votes and Hall of
Fame quarterback Brett Farvis Parkinson's disease. This guy is on
a war terror against head injuries in the NFL. He

(16:53):
is going to be a nightmare for the NFL. Hi,
It's Michael. Your morning show airs live five to eight
am Central, six to nine Eastern in great cities like Memphis, Tennessee.
Tell us to Oklahoma, Sacramento, California. We'd love to be
a part of your morning routine, but we're happier here now.
Enjoyed the podcast. Can't have your morning show without your voice.
That's why we encourage you to use the iHeart Radio

(17:15):
app talk back button. Is this another one from Wisconsin? Yes?

Speaker 5 (17:19):
It is.

Speaker 6 (17:20):
Yes, this is Brian and Oh Claire Wisconsin. We listen
to you every day, Oh Claire Wisconsin.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
All right, so it's official. Aaron Rayel is joining us.
Aaron and I had no idea we were on in Wisconsin,
so I.

Speaker 5 (17:35):
Go.

Speaker 1 (17:35):
You never give the Brewer score the Packers. It's official.
Today is Oh Claire Wisconsin day, and welcome Hi Wisconsin.
Ever been to Wisconsin. We scoed to Sheboygan every year
when I was a kid.

Speaker 7 (17:47):
No, But you want to know something amazing. My husband
just got back from Wisconsin, like yesterday.

Speaker 1 (17:52):
Did we bring it back some Kurds.

Speaker 6 (17:54):
No, and we're kind of fighting about it. Really, you
went to Wisconsin and not return with cheese.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
We used to go to Sheboygan. Yeah we fished a lot,
and yeah we sat on the beach. The Wisconsin Dell's
was always magical. When I was a k infect. One
of my most magical moments of childhood was at the
Wisconsin Dells. Who were just walking around and they had
an old fashioned theater. This is like right out of
Doc Hollywood the movie, and the person was at the
piano and the popcorn was free, and then you just

(18:24):
got your popcorn and sat down and what they were
playing was Duck Soup, the Marx Brothers, and it was
just it was just a great but they had the
best brought worst on planet Earth. Next time your husband
goes to Wisconsin, I don't care where in Wisconsin. We're
sending him on a little jaunt to Sheboygan and he
can bring home braughts for you and mail sum to me.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
All right, n cool.

Speaker 1 (18:46):
How are we all communicating at work? Well, we're teams
folks here, but we are. But yeah, this is this
is how much our lives have changed over the years.

Speaker 6 (18:59):
Yeah, said Michael. You and I talk on it every day,
like we're familiar with teams. We need to be very
cool about this. This is a reminder almost as much
just for you and me as the listening public. Don't complain.
Don't complain. We do not complain on collaborative productivity things
like teams or Slack or Google Chat. And the reason

(19:20):
for this being that, like it's the opposite of Vegas,
what happens on these productivity tools does not stay on
these productivity tools.

Speaker 7 (19:26):
Our chats are logged.

Speaker 6 (19:28):
They can be viewed by IT admins, by human resources reps,
even by our managers.

Speaker 7 (19:35):
Know that, know that this applies to everybody and AI.

Speaker 6 (19:38):
Now it has the ability to summarize meetings and chats
and all this very very quickly. So the management of
like having to sift through everything and left with something
now so much easier.

Speaker 7 (19:49):
So listen.

Speaker 6 (19:50):
If you want to gripe about your employer, as many
people do and probably should, it's probably like a healthy
thing every now and again, go get a cocktail or
a coffee and do it in person.

Speaker 7 (19:58):
Do not do it productivity apps.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
All right, So let's break this down and make it
human I have noticed that some of our specific monthly
meetings that if for some reason I couldn't be on
the meeting, I know when I because if you go live,
you're in the meeting, but if you go after the fact,
it's sitting there recorded and I watch it because I

(20:22):
missed it and I want to get the information. So
I knew that was happening. I also had an IT
guy at another company that this guy was constantly on
the snoop. I didn't realize whether it's slack, whether it's teams,
whether it's Google Chat, that a lot of this can
be broke, can actually be monitored, broken down, reports can
be made. I did not know that. So there's no privacy.

Speaker 6 (20:43):
Whatsoever, none, and there should be zero expectation of it.
And also if you're in any sort of.

Speaker 7 (20:48):
Industry that's heavily regulated.

Speaker 6 (20:51):
And many are listen, we're I wouldn't say we're heavily regulated,
but we're certainly regulated in the sense that we are
on the public airways. So and this is like we're
not finance, you know, like things that are actually like
or insurance or other things like that, those are all kept.

Speaker 7 (21:06):
They have to be kept. The record keeping needs to
be there.

Speaker 1 (21:09):
You'll never know if when you eventually get fired, what
the reason is, they'll give you a reason. It'll be
anything but this, and this could be the road to that.
So got to careful what you say.

Speaker 7 (21:22):
Yeah, isn't that like an interesting thing?

Speaker 1 (21:25):
I g get because you would think you could sue
because there's nothing Maybe it is buried somewhere in small print.
I swallowed wrong trying to hide the fact that I'm
choking to death right now. But there's nothing that warns
there's nothing that warns you that you know this is unprotected?
Is there no?

Speaker 7 (21:43):
Exactly? And that's a good thing.

Speaker 6 (21:45):
And listen, we get so comfortable using these things, and
that's that that's where you know the pain points?

Speaker 3 (21:50):
Lie?

Speaker 1 (21:50):
Can I do you want to measure?

Speaker 7 (21:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (21:53):
Please?

Speaker 1 (21:53):
All right? So you and I are on teams all
the time, right, yeah, Suppose even though I used this
teams with you for work, what if I use this
teams with someone else? Can they monitor that as well?
In other words, the same system as there beyond work used,

(22:14):
it's even in your private life. Could that be also overheard?

Speaker 6 (22:18):
Yes?

Speaker 7 (22:19):
Yes, I'm glad that you are.

Speaker 6 (22:21):
I'll give you an example because you're like okay, so
I'll just use like Apple Message or WhatsApp or Signal
or something else.

Speaker 3 (22:26):
No.

Speaker 6 (22:27):
Just earlier this year, Goldman Sachs from JP Morgan or
excuse me, Morgan Stanley, Morgan Stanley, not JP Morgan. They
punished and then ultimately fired a couple workers for communicating
over WhatsApp as opposed to like these approved messaging apps.

Speaker 7 (22:43):
But they were communicating messline. They got fired. They got fired.
So like, no again, if you need to gripe, if
you need to do anything like this, you do it
in person.

Speaker 1 (22:51):
I would like a number two pencil and a quiet
conference room with microphones unplugged. Bottom line here, and there's
just no such thing as privacy. I mean, whatever you say,
we used to joke, whatever you say in private, don't

(23:12):
say anything you wouldn't say on NBC Nightly News. But
now that we're looking at the ratings, and we focused
on that earlier this morning, I'll ask you if you
take a week of CNN prime time, which would be
seven to ten Central, a week of prime time, how
many viewers do you think they have?

Speaker 6 (23:31):
Oh, that's such a good question. A week all of cumulative,
just like every night, individual viewers. I think two hundred thousand.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
It was eighty thousand. Roughly. It went real roughly what
I had in nineteen ninety five in Tels, Oklahoma on
an AM station in the sixty fourth market. Yeah, it's
all everybody's online, but they're not they're not listening.

Speaker 7 (23:58):
What's Fox? I'm kind of Fox?

Speaker 1 (24:00):
So what was that? It was one hundred and eighty
I did not remember that. I think it was one
hundred eighty thousand. Still not you know, not what an
average large market radio station would be. But we make
them bigger than life.

Speaker 6 (24:11):
Joe Rogan podcast and it's ten million, right, that's million people.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
You're like, what, that's the point. Everybody's following what ABC,
NBCCBSC and n MSNBC and Fox is doing, except most
of the people who vote. So, but we have to
change our alley. Don't say anything on your phone, in
text and email, especially on teams, that you wouldn't say
on the Joe Rogan Podcast, because there is no such

(24:38):
thing as privacy. And that's the latest. For those of
you that have meetings on Slack teams, Google Chat, they're
the leaders. They're not private, and your employers can be
hearing everything what you're saying they could even be getting
written reports on everything you're saying, and then you'll ask yourself,
why did I get fired? Aaron? Good reporting? Gush gush snooping.
That's what I call the goosh snoop. What the today, Jesus,

(25:01):
the snoop scoop? Queen Aaron Reale, have a great day.
We'll talk to you tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (25:06):
You t Michael.

Speaker 1 (25:10):
Forty three minutes after the hour. Thanks for taking us
along with you on the drive to work. He got
about seventeen minutes to be to work on times. And
here's what's happening. Former President Donald Trump talking about his
plans for the economy in Savannah, Georgia, lager Laser focused
on two smart things, the economy and jobs. More from
Mark Mayfield.

Speaker 8 (25:30):
On Tuesday, Trump told his supporters he wants to tank
other countries' jobs.

Speaker 9 (25:35):
We'll create millions and millions of massively raised wages for
American workers and make the United States into a manufacturing
powerhouse like it used to be many years ago.

Speaker 8 (25:47):
Trump said he'll unlock the energy potential in the US
by allowing for more drilling and fracking. He also said
he'll keep the US own industry strong by putting a
one hundred percent tariff on every car manufacturer in Mexico. Meanwhile,
repoints say that Vice President Kamala Harris will talk more
about her economic plans during a visit to Pittsburgh on
Wednesday afternoon.

Speaker 1 (26:05):
I'm Mark Mayfield, and that'll sound.

Speaker 10 (26:06):
Like I know the prices at the grocery store. A Hi,
I'm hearing that from the American people. They're feeling it,
gas ran mortgages. Next question, Oh, she liked it. See

(26:27):
Joe doesn't like what I talk about.

Speaker 1 (26:28):

home COVID nineteen test offer by the end of the month.
Brian Shook has the details.

Speaker 11 (26:43):
The program will allow US households to order up to
four COVID nineteen at home nasal swap kits. The kits
will be available while supplies last. The US Health and
Human Services Agency, which oversees COVID testing, has not announced
an exact date for ordering to begin. I'm Brian Shook.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
And everybody said, not a man who cares a new
poll shows that the twenty twenty four presidential race can't
get any closer. Kristin Marx reports.

Speaker 12 (27:13):
The latest Quinnipiac University survey shows, in a race including
a third party candidates, forty eight percent of likely voter
support former President Trump, while forty seven percent back Vice
President Kamala Harris. In August poll showed Harris garnering forty
nine percent and Trump perceiving forty seven percent, and a
hypothetical two way race, voters are evenly split forty eight

(27:34):
to forty eight percent. Meanwhile, sixty four percent of voters
say they would like to see a second debate between
Trump and Harris, and seventy three percent say they're somewhat
to very concerned they'll be politically motivated violence following the
outcome of the election.

Speaker 7 (27:48):
Kristin Marx NBC News Radio.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
A woman is accusing Sean Diddy Combs of raping her
and taping the attack back in two thousand and one.
Lisa Taylor has more.

Speaker 5 (27:57):
Dahlia Graves addressed the media with her attorney, Laura all
Read from Los Angeles Tuesday, The Hearts of His Shame
and the Jew in a lawsuit filed in New York City.
Grave said Combs and his bodyguard gave her a glass
of wine, causing her to pass out. She says she
awoke in Comb's Manhattan studio, hands tied behind her back

(28:18):
and was raped by Combs and his bodyguard. It's the
latest accusation to hit Combs, who remains locked up in
Brooklyn on racketeering and sex trafficking charges.

Speaker 1 (28:26):
I'ly said Taylor, I remember it like yesterday, my son
Nicholas throwing up all over the Statuary Hall in the
United States Capitol Building memory one of my favorite rooms
to walk around. That's where was with Sean Hannity, and
he recorded a message from my mom on the phone
as she was recovering. An eight foot tall statue of
the Man in Black is now going up inside the Capitol.

(28:47):
Michael Kastner reports ill and to arden ring.

Speaker 13 (28:52):
Up fire, a statue of Johnny Cash will be added
to the National Statuary Hall collection today. It features this
singer and guitar slung across his back end a bible
in his hand. It will replace the current statue of
former Arkansas governor and US Senator James Clark.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
I'm Michael Cassner and in Schwartz, Mariners, Dbacks, Rays, Rangers,
Nationals all lost Cardinals one, six to one over the Reds.
There's a postseason for the Cardinals, but they're hanging in
there and fighting.

Speaker 3 (29:27):
And this just in.

Speaker 1 (29:28):
This just in at tension, Oh Claire and all the ships.
It sees the Brewers beat the Pirates seven to two.

Speaker 7 (29:39):
This is Deba Morris from our little town of Franklin, Tennessee.
My morning show is your morning show with Michael and
Jale Jordan.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
We got to talk back on your morning show. Can't
have your morning show without your voice. Here's one. This
is David from Anchorage, Alaska and my early morning show.
It's your Early Marnin show. So let me ask you, Rory, Alaska.

(30:07):
Is that the same as California time or is it
even in another hour?

Speaker 2 (30:12):
I think does it depend on where you were in Alaska?

Speaker 1 (30:14):
I could all right, So we found out today because
a guy in China has one time zone? Really for
all that just one yep, I'm editing. I had a joke,
but I'm not going to do it. I'm mature now.
So Anchorage, I did not know we were on an
Anchorage and I found out earlier. We're on in Eau Claire, Wisconsin.
So now I have to add Packer scores, Brewer scores.

(30:36):
Of course, with Alaska, I have no scores to add.
Oh it would be neat if Alaska got a hockey team,
wouldn't I Alaska daylight time? I had no idea. So
we're minus eight. We're apparently on news talk radio six
fifty K e n I in Anchorage, Alaska. Well, good morning, Alaska,
very morning. I mean it's going to be after midnight. Well, yeah,

(30:58):
somebody's not sleeping very well. And in Eclaire, we're on
news Talk one O six point three and AM eight
eighty WM e Q and no Claire, I apologize, no
one told me. But now that I looked that up,
I found out we were nameds Iowa too, So we'll
say hello to Iowa while we're at it. All right,
Rory's here a new national poll which I talked a
lot about last hour, and you can check it out
on the podcast. In our first hour, focusing on the

(31:19):
top issues facing the country, how'd everybody fair.

Speaker 3 (31:23):
Well? Right?

Speaker 2 (31:24):
So this is a Quinnipiac University poll.

Speaker 14 (31:25):
When it comes to the big question about Harris versus Trump,
if it's head to head, it's forty eight forty eight,
so shows it we're in the toss up category.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
But again, national poll, that's not how we do things
around this country.

Speaker 14 (31:38):
It depends on what those states are deciding, So that's
the more important thing there.

Speaker 2 (31:42):
When it comes to some of the specific issues.

Speaker 14 (31:46):
When it comes to the economy, which is always the
number one top of mind, fifty two percent say Donald
Trump would do a better job, compared to forty five
percent for Harris, about the same for immigration. On abortion,
Harris is the one in the lead fifty four forty one.
Although I did like the question they asked about whether
or not these celebrity endorsements change your enthusiasm for voting

(32:08):
Elon Musk for Donald Trump, Taylor Swift for Kamala Harris.
More than three quarters of likely voters seventy six percent
said that Taylor Swift's endorsement makes no difference in their
level of enthusiasm.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
Actually, in a previous poll it came up eighty one percent,
but even worse. Seven percent said it made them more
enthusiastic for Harris, but thirteen percent said it made them
want to vote for Donald Trump. So what little influence
it has is two to one negative against the one
there endort they should shut up and sing. What I
thought was interesting and quinnippy x Musk and not for

(32:43):
what should Musk do? Then well, I don't know that
Elon Musk has kind of involved in that. I mean
X is the number one place people go for political conversations.
I don't know that that's apples to apples comparing him
to Taylor Swift that people go to for music and
parents pay for tickets for the kids to go to concerts.

Speaker 3 (33:03):
But no.

Speaker 1 (33:03):
What I thought was interesting is Quinnipiac shows the economy
and immigration lead for Donald Trump and the abortion lead
not a big surprise. And the same thing was true
and even more specific in the Gallup poll where if
you took people Kamala and Trump out of the equation
party loyalty, Democrat, Republican, which shows it at a dead
heat nationwide. But if you just focus on the problems

(33:26):
and the issues and who they think has the ideas
to solve them, Republicans and Trump lead in nine of
the ten issues. Just shows Donald Trump isn't the problem,
Kamala Harris isn't the problem. Democrats and Republicans aren't we
the people are the problem. We're focused on all the
wrong things. If we would focus on being Americans and
solving the problems in America, we might arrive at a

(33:48):
much better decision. But it just goes to show you
how much partisanship and media and personality politics all plays
a role in this. It's this. If this campaign was
about issue is Donald Trump would be winning the landslide.

Speaker 14 (34:02):
Yeah, and we all want another debate. Well, sixty four
percent of us want another debate. That was another fun fact.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
In twenty seconds of us. Because we're gonna do more
about it. We're to check back in next hour, Helena.
The difference is about as powerful as we thought. Hitting
a little bit north though, right, well, right. The concern
is this is going to be this is going to
wallap Atlanta. That's it could be a hurricane when it
hits Atlanta. That would happen on Friday. We're all in
this together. This is your Morning Show with Michael Ndel.
