Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, it's me Michael. Your morning show can be heard
live daily on great radio stations like News Radio six
fifty k E NI Anchorage, Alaska, Talk Radio eleven ninety
Dallas Fort Worth, and Freedom one oh four seven in Washington,
d C. We'd love to have you listen live every
day and make us a part of your morning routine.
But better late than never. Enjoy the podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Well two three.

Speaker 3 (00:21):
This starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding because we're in this together.
This is your Morning Show with Michael gill Trump.

Speaker 1 (00:35):
Seven minutes after the hour, Welcome to Monday, December the
ninth year of Our Lord, twenty twenty four on the
Aaron streaming live on your iHeartRadio app. This is your
morning show now, Michael del Jono, Jeffrey Lyons, and the
controls of sound.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
I'm all producer. Red is here.

Speaker 1 (00:51):
Meanwhile, President like Donald Trump says children born in the
US could be deported if their parents are here illegally.
President Biden quick to praise the regime change in Syria.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
Hang on a second, it's HTS.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
It's Abu Muhammad al Golani and he's formally al Kaeda
do you really think there's Rosie Daisy?

Speaker 2 (01:08):
What Hang on a second.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
It appears as though Jeffrey has thrown the challenge flag.

Speaker 2 (01:14):
Here we go. Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
I was asked to look at a picture of doctor
Joe Biden in Frost sitting next to Donald Trump, which,
by the way, can I just interrupt and say, how
hilarious is Donald Trump to use that picture to sell
his new fragrances Colonnes and proves all right, so Red,

(01:38):
don't cover your mouth. It make me the only one
immature here laughing? All right, So that's number one. That
was my first observation. Picture me in my referee uniform
with my guns. I'm underneath, you know, looking at the video.
And the first thing I got to say is he
used the picture to sell this irresistible colone set. Oh

(02:01):
oh der, heavenly Father, thank.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
You for him. He is such a piece of work.
All right.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
But what I'm looking at is Jeffrey has thrown the
challenge flag. You would expect Jill Biden, the current First
Lady and wife of Joe Biden, being.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
In France sitting next to Donald Trump is an awkward moment, right, Oh?

Speaker 1 (02:23):
Come on, man, Well, I would think it is you
both said terrible things about Donald Trump throughout the entire campaign,
and now you're sitting next to each other in France.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
Your band, dog face, pony soldier, I.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
Speak the truth in love. What are you doing up anyway?
So I would tell you I would expect either a
cold stare, a kind of a frosty stare, or a
filthy look. Quite frankly, I mean, you know, Jill does

(02:55):
not want to leave the White House, kind of like
she gave to Kamal. Yes, okay, Kamal, it gets the cold,
frosty stare. But you through the red challenge flag that
Joe Biden was looking rather seductively at the Donald. I
don't know if maybe seductively is the word. Uh that's
Is it admiration or attraction? What did you sense?

Speaker 2 (03:17):
I sensed a little bit of both both.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
So I'm going to go ahead and say he's like, hey,
you know Joe's been put down for his nap.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
That type of.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
Look, Well, it's definitely admiration. Yes, that is an adoring look.
If someone looked at me like this, I would probably
uh say I'm married, I'm married, I'm unavailable, or if
I wasn't married, can I get you another drink. Yeah, no,
that is uh, that is an that is a that's

(03:50):
a very telling look. After further review, we're going to
go ahead and uphold the call on the field by Jeffrey. Yes,
I think doctor Jill is looking at Donald Trump and
she's interested.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
Resmire and stop it.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
Don't you ever let anybody take me out from God?

Speaker 5 (04:11):
No, no, it is the motto, keep calm, come along.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
Did he really say that? That's not you're not playing
the sound.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
There, No, no wonder Jill looks at Donald that way.
All right, eleven minutes after the hour, Time for your
Sounds of the day for this Monday, December the ninth,
Donald Trump found the perfect tone throughout his Meat the
Press interview and he answered every question just right on point.
And I think he masterfully, quite frankly, use the interview

(04:43):
to defuse all of the liberal fear mogging, fear mongering
narrative from throughout the campaign season. I mean, if you're
sitting there looking at your at this and saying, is
Donald Trump some kind of a tyrant who's never going
to leave and turn the military again a people and
destroy democracy? Well, when asked point blank, do you have

(05:05):
a message for those that voted for Kamala Harris, here's
how that went.

Speaker 6 (05:08):
What do you want to say, two Americans who didn't
support you in this campaign.

Speaker 7 (05:14):
I'm going to treat you every bit as well as
I have treated the greatest MAGA supporters. There's never been
anything like MAGA in the history of this country. These
people are so dedicated to making America great again. It's
very simple, and I'm going to treat them just the
same as I treat MAGA. We're going to treat everybody good.
We want success for our country. We want safety for

(05:34):
our country. Our country is a crime pot and we
have to get rid of crime. We have so many
things to do. We have to do the prices, we
have to do all of that, but we have to
get the criminals out of our country.

Speaker 8 (05:44):
We have to bring down crime.

Speaker 7 (05:45):
People have to be able to walk across the street
and buy a loaf of bread without being shot.

Speaker 8 (05:50):
And that's going to happen. But what I say to
them is I love you.

Speaker 7 (05:54):
And we're going to all work together, and we're going
to bring it together.

Speaker 8 (05:57):
And you know it's going to bring it together success.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
I mean, what a perfect answer. Tyrants don't tell the
people that oppose them. I love you, and we're all
in this together, and you're going to you know, it's
going to make everybody happy.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
Success.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
Also, I love that he gets the priorities of government,
whether it's a municipality, a state, or a nation security,
national security, local security, safety law in order.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
That's number one.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
Nobody wants to live where they're not safe, and nobody
wants to live with it when there's no jobs and
no future and no hope, and nobody wants to live
where they can't afford it. Tom Trump's gonna zig on
all the right ball and he's ready to play changes
priorities for the first one hundred days. Oh that came
up too.

Speaker 6 (06:49):
I understand that on day one you're going to be
signing a flurry of executive order.

Speaker 8 (06:53):
Can you give me.

Speaker 6 (06:54):
Just what are the top ones people should know about.

Speaker 7 (06:56):
Auto will have to do with the economics, So lot's
going to have to do with energy, A lot's going
to do with.

Speaker 8 (07:01):
Having to do with the border.

Speaker 7 (07:02):
We're going to immediately strengthen up the border and do
a real job and some of the basics.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
You know, what's interesting is Donald Trump is one of
the few presidents in history, that gets two first one
hundred days. See, had he just won in twenty twenty,
you don't really get a second one hundred days. You
get your first one hundred days, but not a second,
and his presidency would have been simply stumbling with us

(07:32):
through COVID. But four years off, four years of going
in the opposite direction and proving what a wrong direction
that was, coming back wiser, strengthened, more focused than ever
with the right team behind him. This might be Donald

(07:55):
Trump four point zero. Trump says he won't direct the
FBI to investigate his enemies, spend a lot of time
talking about cash, Ptel and others. But again that fear
mongering leftist narrative. He's going to turn the military against
his own people. He's going to prosecute all his political

(08:17):
enemies like a tyrant.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
Well, that came up to, are you going to do that?

Speaker 6 (08:21):
Are you going to go after Joe Biden.

Speaker 7 (08:23):
I'm really looking to make our country successful. I'm not
looking to go back into the past. I'm looking to
make our country successful. Retribution will be through success. If
we can make our success, this country successful, that would
be my greatest That would be such a great achievement.

Speaker 8 (08:41):
Bring it back.

Speaker 7 (08:42):
We have a country now that's overridden with crime, that
has millions of people that shouldn't be here, that should
be in prisons in other countries, that should be in
mental institutions. We have drug lords being dropped into our
country un told never go back to their country. I'm
looking to make our country great. I'm looking to get
bring prices down because you know, I won on two things,
the border and more than immigration.

Speaker 8 (09:04):
You know they like to say immigration.

Speaker 7 (09:06):
I break it down more to the border, but I
want on the border, and I wan on groceries. It's
very simple word, groceries, like almost you know who uses
the word. I started using the word the groceries. When
you buy apples, when you buy bacon, when you buy eggs.
They would double and triple the price over a short
period of time. And I want an election based on that.

(09:29):
We're going to bring those prices way down.

Speaker 6 (09:31):
I want to pause here because what you're saying is
significant because you wrote on truth Social in twenty twenty
three that you're going to point a real special prosecutor
to go after Joe Biden. Now you're saying you're not
going to do that.

Speaker 8 (09:43):
I will say this.

Speaker 7 (09:44):
No, I'm not doing that unless I find something that
I think is reasonable.

Speaker 8 (09:50):
But that's not going to be my decision.

Speaker 7 (09:51):
That's going to be Pambondi's decision, and to a different extent,
Cash Betel, assuming they're both there, and I think they're
both going to get But I you know, while you
ask me that what they've done to me with weaponization
is a disgrace.

Speaker 8 (10:08):
We'll get to some of that.

Speaker 7 (10:10):
Wait, wait, wait, you can't do one without the other.
In the history of our country, nothing like this has
ever happened. And I've won these cases. I've won everyone
and the rest are in the process of being one
deranged Jack Smith is on his way back to the
Hague where he can execute people. This is where he
should have stayed. I think he's dangerous even being there.

(10:31):
But I'll tell you what what they've done to me
in terms of weaponization, indictments, impeachments, and everything else.

Speaker 8 (10:40):
And in the end it probably.

Speaker 7 (10:41):
Helped because they got the biggest vote, the most votes
any Republicans ever gotten in history.

Speaker 1 (10:45):
Several things I could touch on there at number one,
this is the example of finding the right tone. This
is Donald Trump in control of the interview, not an
interviewer keeping him on constant defense and throwing a barat
of gotchas and attacks at him. He is in complete
command of his tone and his answers and their flawless

(11:08):
We've talked a lot. I don't care how much money
you have, and they went through billions. If every time
I go to the grocery store and hardly anything in
my buggy adds up to over one hundred and fifty dollars,
that's an ad for change. Every Time I fill up
at the pump and it's nearly four dollars a gallon,
that's an ad for change. Donald Trump knows cost of

(11:30):
living and the rise in prices. That's what got him elected,
and how does he plan to address it? The number
one creator of inflation debt, that's what DOGE is all about. Energy.
That's how the goods and services get where they're going. Drill, baby, drill,

(11:51):
Border and security and law enforcement. Donald Trump knows who
elected him and for what reason, and he's laser focused
on get get all done. But to do it in
a non contentious tone. He couldn't look less like a tyrant,
less like a dictator, less like some evil force to fear.

(12:14):
I wonder how long before Allen and all the others
that fled the country try to get a fast ticket home.
Trump says he wants DOCTA recipients to be able to
remain in the United States.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
Let's take your.

Speaker 6 (12:27):
Plan to deport everyone who is here illegally over the
next four years.

Speaker 7 (12:31):
Well, I think you have to do it, and it's
a it's a very tough thing to do. It's but
you have to have you know, you have rules, regulations,
law as.

Speaker 8 (12:42):
They came in illegally.

Speaker 7 (12:43):
You know, the people that have been treated very unfairly
are the people that have been online for ten years
to come into the country. And we're going to make
it very easy for people to come in in terms
of they have to pass the test. They have to
be able to tell you what the statue of liberty is.
They have to tell you a little bit about our country.
They have to love our country. They can't come out
of prisons. We don't want people that are in for murder.

(13:03):
So we had eleven thousand and thirteen thousand, different estimates,
thirteen thousand and ninety nine murderers released into our country
over the last three years. They're walking down the streets.
They're walking next to you and your family, and they're
very dangerous.

Speaker 6 (13:18):
Thirteen thousand figure I think goes back about forty good.

Speaker 7 (13:22):
No, it doesn't know it's within the three year period.

Speaker 8 (13:24):
It's during the Biden term.

Speaker 7 (13:25):
Now, that was a fiction that they put that out.
This was done by the Border Patrol. It's thirteen thousand
and ninety.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
Even the tone of fact checking the misfact check was
the right tone. One of the big fear of mind
readings iss going to cut off all your solis and security.

Speaker 2 (13:43):
They cover that.

Speaker 6 (13:44):
You've tapped Elon musk vivik Ramaswami to head up this
Department of Government Efficiency correct which proposes cuts to the
federal government. I think a lot of people hear that
and they get concerned about Medicare and social security.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
I think the media that tries to weaponize it does.
But go ahead, gonna have anything to do, and.

Speaker 9 (14:02):
You won't touch social security.

Speaker 8 (14:05):
Okay.

Speaker 7 (14:06):
No, I said to me, we're not touching social secuity
other than we make it more efficient.

Speaker 8 (14:09):
But the people are going to get what they.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
Getting, Okay.

Speaker 8 (14:11):
So the entitlements we're not raising, and we're not raising
ages or any of that stuff.

Speaker 2 (14:15):
Off the town boom.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
Can't get more precise than that. Final one has to
do with the inaugural speech, and we'll let have as
good a tone as this interview.

Speaker 6 (14:26):
You've thought about your message for your second inaugural address?

Speaker 8 (14:30):
I have could you give? We're going to have a message.
It will make you happy. Unity. It's going to be
a message of unity.

Speaker 7 (14:36):
And again, I think success brings unity, and I've experienced
that I've experienced in my first term. As I said,
we're going to be talking about unity, and we're going
to be talking about success, making our country safe, keeping
people that shouldn't be in our country. Yet we have
to do that. I know it doesn't sound nice, but
we have to do that. But basically, it's going to
be about bringing our country.

Speaker 9 (14:58):
Together and no American carnage.

Speaker 8 (15:01):
No American carriage. What do you mean by numerica?

Speaker 9 (15:04):
That was one of the big quotes of your first
inaudural address. It sounds like the tone, based on what
I'm hearing, is going to be different from this inaudual address.

Speaker 7 (15:14):
Well, we had a very successful four years actually, and
the first of we had a very very successful view.
Look at what we've done with the biggest tax cuts
in history. We had safety and military that was incredible.
We defeated Isis, which nobody thought could be done in
a short period. I did it in a matter of weeks,
and people thought it was going to take five years
to do.

Speaker 8 (15:33):
I know, we did a.

Speaker 7 (15:34):
Lot of things. The rebuilding of our military was a
big thing. I think of all the things that wouldn't
have happened. Russia wouldn't have attacked Ukraine, our president Israel
wouldn't have had October seventh. We wouldn't have had inflation
because inflation was caused largely by energy prices. You know,
so many other things wouldn't have happened. You look at Afghanistan,
that disaster.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
So the bottom line, I think you can see why
Jill been looking at Donald Trump the.

Speaker 2 (16:01):
Way she's been looking at him.

Speaker 1 (16:03):
Flawless performance on Meet the Press, just the right tone,
perfect answers. There's a lot to be excited about the
new year.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
She's gonna get smoked.

Speaker 8 (16:10):
He's got too stopped.

Speaker 7 (16:12):
I really don't know what he said at the end
of this, and I don't think he knows what he's
said either.

Speaker 2 (16:19):
It's got to be a big bit understanding. I'm going man,
how do you like my garbage?

Speaker 10 (16:28):
Hey, everybody's john Ford Coley of England, Dan and john
Ford Coley and my morning show is your Morning Show
with Michael del Journo.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
Hi, I'm Michael. I'd love to have you listen to
your morning show live. Every day We're heard on great
stations like News Talk five point fifty k f YI
and Phoenix News Radio eleven ninety k e X in
Portland at ten ninety the Patriot in Seattle. Make us
a part of your morning routine. We'd love to have
you listen live. But in the meantime, enjoyed the podcast.
I was just looking down now again I'm biased. My

(17:06):
favorite and it's not a day, it's a season. But
my favorite season of all is Christmas. I love the
weather of the season, I love the music of the season,
I love the traditions.

Speaker 2 (17:19):
Of the season.

Speaker 1 (17:20):
I mean, there's nothing about Christmas I don't love one
of them is And I'm a little Johnny Mathis in
this way as I love a decorated home and my
wife does a perfect job decorating inside and out. And
the notion that you wouldn't decorate or wouldn't have a

(17:41):
Christmas tree It's unthinkable for me. But I've never really
thought about what the percentage is. Did you know only
seventy three percent of Americans plan to have a Christmas tree?

Speaker 2 (17:53):
But I don't know.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Now I've looked at the you know, numbers, I would
I don't. We used to be ninety percent Christian as
a country. I don't know what we are now, so
I guess these numbers would naturally fall with it. But
the notion that one in four are not going to
have a Christmas tree, that just seemed like a lot
to me. And probably the more interesting question is of

(18:17):
the seventy three percent who plan to have a Christmas tree,
what is the artificial versus live? Now, there are families
that are very, very consistent and very particular about having
a live tree.

Speaker 2 (18:30):
I have done a live tree, and I.

Speaker 1 (18:32):
Will tell you the going and picking it out and
cutting it down and bringing it home. There's kind of
a neat feeling. I mean, I think if I lived,
like in New York City, I would do that. I mean,
first of all, you don't have any storage space for
the artificial tree anyway. But you know, like that scene
and you got mail, I think it was you got mail?
Or was at Harry met Sally where she's dragging the

(18:54):
Christmas tree back to her apartment. But we have always
been an artificial tree family, and it's a big one,
but we have room under the house to store it.
More than two thirds of Americans will decorate their homes
for the holidays this year, and nearly three and four
will have a Christmas tree. The latest rasc ME some
report National poll Online survey finds it's sixty nine percent

(19:15):
of American adults say they will decorate their home this
holiday season, while twenty two percent say no. Wouldn't it
be awful to be in an uncor I mean nothing,
not even.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
A wreath that that is hints at depression?

Speaker 1 (19:33):
Well, because you know, it's kind of like when they say,
what are the two greatest days for a boat owner?

Speaker 2 (19:38):
The day you buy your boat and the day you
sell it. There's something about seeing your house that you've been,
you know, used to all of a sudden take on
the holiday, and then when the holidays are over, there's
something about seeing it gone, Like I love my house
when it gets decorated and then when it goes back
to normal. Both you miss out on that. But yeah,

(19:58):
seventy three percent will have a Christmas this year. These
fightings are almost identical to last year, where it was
seventy four percent. I guess if you're onan Soto, you
just you just decorate it with bills, one hundred dollars bills.
It's the most wonderful time there with those, that's for sure.

Speaker 1 (20:17):
But I mean that just everything. I mean, what if
I had to pick a favorite? Uh, it's the sounds
of the season, the message of the season, and the
look of the season. They kind of all go hand
in hand. But there's nothing like a decorated home with
Christmas music, And as we acknowledge, often the best Christmas
songs are by the dead, that's true. I mean, where

(20:42):
else do I get to remember and spend time with
Andy Williams, Glenn Campbell, that King Cole. Anyway, that's our
survey of the day. Maybe we should have made that
our talk back question of the day. Is there anybody
out there that's not decorating? And why? And I guess
also what's that like? Or how about this for a

(21:04):
talkback question of the day. Should we get our AI
guy C three po meme to do something with Jill
Biden and Donald Trump, baby it's cold outside. Using the
picture from now you can get pictures to sing now, Yeah,
get the Jill Biden picture at Notre Dame staring at
Donald Trump and have them sing baby It's cold outside

(21:24):
and a duet.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
That would be a good one. Have you seen the
one where Trump and Jill get into fisticuffs? No, send
it to me. Oh you haven't seen that one. Well,
they obviously made up. I can tell you that. Yeah,
they made up. I'm gonna tell you something. Wouldn't that
be a twist?

Speaker 1 (21:41):
First, Lady's dang Milanya's not coming. Trump and Jill Biden
jeeped up.

Speaker 2 (21:47):
All right?

Speaker 1 (21:48):
Top story of the day. Biden is praising the regime
change in Syria. That might be a bit premature, Lisa
Carton reports.

Speaker 10 (21:54):
Speaking from the White House Sunday, Biden called the collapse
of Asad's government a moment of a story opportunity for
the long suffering people of Syria. This regime brutalized, in
tortured and killed three hundreds of thousands of.

Speaker 7 (22:08):
Innis series a fall the res eve is a fundamental
lack of justice.

Speaker 10 (22:12):
Biden also warned there's a moment of risk and uncertainty
over what comes next. The president outline continued US involvement
in Syria to help establish a transition away from the
Assaud regime toward an independent nation that serves all Syrians.
Biden's remarks came after a coalition of rebels captured the
Syrian capital of Damascus, prompting Assad to resign. I'm Lisa Carton.

Speaker 1 (22:35):
Yes, and then bombing commenced an isis targets. Apple is
the best run company in the United States, according to
The Wall Street Journal.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
Mark Mayfield fills US in.

Speaker 11 (22:45):
More than eight hundred companies were evaluated using five categories
customer satisfaction, innovation, social responsibility, employee engagement and development, and
financial strength. Apple, which not to have Microsoft for the
top spot this year, was the only All Star on
the list. Second place went to Nvidia, followed by Microsoft
and Intel.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
I'm Mark Mayfield And.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
To Meet the Press interview, Donald Trump laid out his
deportation ground rules Brian Shook as our Road to the
White House.

Speaker 11 (23:10):
Road to the White House twenty twenty four. President elect
Trump says children born in the US could be deported
if their parents are in the country illegally. In an interview,
with NBC's Meet the Press, Trump said he doesn't want
to break up families, and so children may have to
leave alongside their undocumented parents once he takes office.

Speaker 7 (23:27):
Well, what's you going to do if they want to
stay with the father. We have to have rules and regulations.
You could always find.

Speaker 8 (23:32):
Something out, like you know, this doesn't work, that doesn't work.

Speaker 11 (23:35):
Trump also reaffirmed his commitment to ending birthright citizenship. He
also appeared to say his administration's deportation efforts would go
well beyond undocumented immigrants that are convicted of crimes and
target most others as well. Despite these comments, Trump insisted
he wants to keep immigrants who are so called dreamers,
those wrought to the US's children and enrolled in the
DACA program.

Speaker 2 (23:54):
I'm Mark Mayfield.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
With holiday shopping expected to reach historic eyes this year,
the same as to be said for purchase returns. Chris
Caragio has that story.

Speaker 12 (24:04):
A new report by the National Retail Federation and return
management company Happy Returns expects this year's returns to reach
seventeen percent of all merchandise sales, making for eight hundred
and ninety billion dollars in return products. The return rate
in twenty twenty three was at fifteen percent, totally seven
hundred and forty three billion dollars. The Federation also discovered

(24:25):
that returns hit an annual high during the holidays. I'm
Chris Kragio. There's no place like home. There's no place
like home.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
Judy Garland's Ruby slippers have found a new home from
the Wizard of Oz. They sold at auction for a
record amount. Scott Carr has the details Ruby, Why are
you've done with them?

Speaker 2 (24:44):
Parents?

Speaker 13 (24:44):
It's auctions in Dallas as the sales Saturday mark the
highest price ever paid for movie memorabilia at auctioner.

Speaker 2 (24:50):
Oh give me, I.

Speaker 8 (24:52):
Am the only one that knows how to use them.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
There's no use to you.

Speaker 13 (24:55):
One of the four surviving pairs the shoes, stolen from
a Minnesota museum twenty years ago, sold for twenty eight
million dollars. The other original slippers have also sold at auction,
but not for nearly as much, and once again the
good Guy or Gal wins. Also auctioned off was the
black hat worn by Margaret Hamilton of the movie, which.

Speaker 2 (25:15):
Sold for two million dollars. I'm Scott Carr.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
Well, it was close, but no cigar for the Chargers
fell short nineteen seventeen in Kansas City. Last night, if
you fell asleep on the ice stars dallast the flame
six to two, Lightning for two over the Canucks and
the krack in seventy five over the Rangers.

Speaker 3 (25:31):
This is your morning show with Michael Deltno, well, you.

Speaker 1 (25:36):
Can't spell your without you. I mean, how can we
have your morning show without your voice? Use that talkback
button on the iHeartRadio app just like Roger did listening
at Kate ste and Sacramento.

Speaker 2 (25:46):
Good morning, Michael.

Speaker 4 (25:47):
The one Soto deal is just a reflection of the
free market. However, when I first saw it, it kind
of made me think that it was a sign of
end of times. This just can't be sustained. Oh, by
the way, thanks for the Ansomnia.

Speaker 1 (26:02):
You're welcome. I thought maybe you were an early riser. Anyway,
Wan Soto signs a deal with the Mets. We were
talking off there about Bobby Benia is still getting paid
twenty years after his retirement. I think Otani doesn't get
paid for almost what thirty years, So it's not even
kind against the salary cap. But seven hundred and sixty
five million dollars over fifteen years for Juan Soto to

(26:24):
stay in New York but play for the Mets. That
is the largest professional athlete salary in history, just slightly
more than roy O'Neil makes who's joining us. At fifty
two minutes after the hour, eight minutes to be to work.
On the East coast, rebels took control of the Syrian capital, Damascus.

Speaker 5 (26:40):
Don't get too excited. It's not a free market. If
the government is propping up these stadium deals. Ooh, that
old chestnut, Well that's true. That or what twenty dollars
beers and fifteen dollars hot, Well, that's free market. But yeah,
not the government's getting involved in propping up these stadium deals.

(27:02):
That's that's not a free.

Speaker 2 (27:03):
Market, all right.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
So the rebel state controlled the Syrian capital. I don't
know that we should get so excited that. I mean,
this was HTS and a former Al Kainda guy. But
where was Russia and Iran and all of this, and
why didn't they help prop up Assad the game asylum
in Russia? But they didn't help prop him up. Roy
O'Neill was here with that story. Good morning, Rory, Yeah,
good morning.

Speaker 5 (27:24):
We've heard all various kinds of theories that Russia is
too involved now with the war in Ukraine and doesn't
have the resources to help as ode like they used to.
Also that the strike by Israel onto Hesbolah has also
taken away some of the capabilities there that Iran or
the influence anyway that Iran would have had in the area.
So Israel's actions may have sort of set up these

(27:47):
moves by the rebel groups to come together and trying
to finally make the moves on these cities, ending a
civil war that began thirteen years ago. So it's all
it's a chessboard out there right now, and it's a
we have no idea, to be honest with you, what's
going to be happening six days from now, six weeks
or six months from now.

Speaker 1 (28:07):
So for radical Shia elements of Islam, this is somewhat
of a blow, but.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
Right for peace in the Middle East.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
For first come Saturday Israel, then comes Sunday America. I
mean you're looking at HTS and Abu Muhammad Alguilani, who
used to be Al Qaida. I mean, you don't expect
happy days are here again anyway.

Speaker 5 (28:29):
Right, But we are seeing a weakening influence of Iran,
which is obviously a positive sign as well. So yeah, again,
what who comes out as leadership is a bit confusing.
You know, we have seen that the leaders of HTS
have sounded a bit more conciliatory in recent months, you know,
working now again with some Christian groups, Christian rebel groups

(28:51):
in Syria. Maybe it's a bit more of a tolerant tone.
But can they hold on and continue to send that message.
We heard from others saying that you know, they will
create an Islamic state there in Syria. Yeah, so it's
it's a confusing time. But right now we're more concerned
about the weapons that Syria has, the chemical weapons in particular.

(29:12):
Israel has been being active in trying to take out
some of those chemical weapon depots, and the US military
striking what seventy five targets, Yeah, in the past twenty
four hours on.

Speaker 2 (29:23):
Right, Yeah, right, I shouldn't let you talk.

Speaker 1 (29:25):
I'm sorry, Yeah, most of those were isis targets. The
rule of thumb, good rule of thumb. By the way,
what let you talk? Don't start with me this morning.
I've had very little sleep and I had a terrible weekend. No,
but in all seriousness, Kalani does denounce and leave al Qaeda.
What is that about, Well, I guess that would be

(29:45):
about seven years ago now, but you know, so you know,
obviously that's long before this movement, long before retaking Syria.
I mean, there's some kind of but you know, it
goes back to that old military expression the enemy of
my anim me is my friend. But at the end
of the day, Rory, the enemy of our enemy here
is still our enemy.

Speaker 5 (30:04):
So I don't know, I would use the phrase the
devil you know is you know, was a sad because
you know, we don't know just what could be happening
and who could be gaining power here. But you know,
or you could be optimistic President Biden saying yesterday, here
we are, it's a historic opportunity. Maybe we could find
something some more stable way to have a I don't

(30:27):
want to say peaceful, but a more stable Syria would
certainly benefit the region. You know, you've got so many
millions who fled Syria because of the civil War. Now
imagine them coming back into places from places like Turkey
that have been housing millions of people.

Speaker 1 (30:40):
I guess the beg I'm going to go come full circles.
And you're right to bring up that point because there
are propped up partnerships. And by the way, the history
of baseball and bud Sea League and what Sea League
tried to do to kind of level the playing field
for cities like Milwaukee to compete with cities like New York.

(31:00):
I mean New York has two teams, and I mean
add up now. And by the way, somebody has to
say this out long because we haven't said it yet.
Today this could be the final piece of the puzzle
for the Mets, who didn't come up that short in
the playoffs last year. Now you add Juan Soto to
that could mean a World Series. But even if it does,
can any one person live up to seven hundred and

(31:20):
sixty five million dollars?

Speaker 2 (31:23):
I mean, wow, And.

Speaker 1 (31:26):
I thought I was successful at twenty six pulling down
sixty grand.

Speaker 5 (31:30):
Yeah right, it's jaw dropping numbers that you know, you
do have to ask some societal questions.

Speaker 2 (31:36):
Here is to wear are our priorities? But okay, yeah,
it's a guy hitting the ball with it it's a
guy hitting the ball with a stick. Yeah, but it's
an easy thing to do, all right.

Speaker 5 (31:46):
On one of the things we did, were hey, neither
he is teaching a four year old.

Speaker 3 (31:50):
Or absolutely We're all in this together. This is your
