Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, it's me Michael. Your morning show can be heard
on great stations across the country like Talk Radio eleven
ninety and Dallas Fort Worth, Freedom one oh four point
seven and Washington, d C and five point fifty k
FYI and Phoenix, Arizona. We'd love to be a part
of your morning routine or take us along on the
drive to work, but as we always say, better late
than never. Enjoy the podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Good morning, Americans, It's Friday two three.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
Starting your morning off right.

Speaker 4 (00:27):
A new way of talk, a new way of understanding,
because we're in this together.

Speaker 3 (00:34):
This is your morning show with Michael O'Dell, John, Rise
and Shine and good morning. Welcome to Friday, Our Friday.
As Paul Hardy.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
Wish June the twentieth year of Our Lord twenty twenty
five on the Aaron, streaming live on your iHeartRadio app.
This is the show that belongs to you. This is
your morning show. I'm Michael del Jornal, Privileged to serve you.
Jeffrey's got control of the sounds, Hi Red keeping an
eye on his bourbon collection, and the content me just

(01:04):
messaging all of us trapped behind enemy lines. The color
is orange. The color is orange. The chair is against
the wall, the chair is against.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
I just love that campfire scene where in Red Dawn
they have the transistor radio had Rah you.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
Behind enemy lines. The chair is against the wall. Chairs.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
President Trump will make his decision about potential US involvement
in the Iran Israeli conflict within the next two weeks.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
Translation.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
If you believe that the chair is against the wall
the color is orange, I don't think you should. I
do think the President is trying to give the Ayatola
and the Iranian people all the chances they can get
to come to the table peacefully and to volitionally walk
away from this. But it could also be a diversionary tactic.

(02:02):
Court ruling allows nearly four thousand National Guard troops to
remain deployed in Los Angeles if things should get out
of a hole, out of a control a game. This
is kind of like the Iron Dome in Israel. You
have an activist federal judge shoot at the president, and
then an appeals court blocks it. This just happens over

(02:23):
and over again. And I love how the Left plays
this matrix. This president is he doesn't he doesn't acknowledge
the other branches of government. When when when the court rules,
he doesn't listen, and when the appeals court rules, Notice
how the Democrats don't listen. The last American hostage to

(02:44):
be freed by Hamas returning home to New Jersey today.
That's wor it's celebrating, The State Department says, foreign citizen.
This ought to be under the headline of you mean
we haven't been doing this. My daughters do this for
potential roommates at college, The Estate Department says, foreign students
who apply for student visas will have their social media

(03:08):
accounts screen for hostility towards the US. Wait, do you
hear what emoms in the US are saying in our
Sounds of the Day segment. They're calling it the Heat Dome,
the Heat Dome. Yes, And I only acknowledge the Heat
Dome because I used to love the show Under the Dome.
I mean, if all the weird things that could happen,

(03:31):
imagine an invisible dome covers a portion of America where
trapped and we don't know it, and then when we do,
we can't get out. You're the only person in America
that's watched that show?

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Well, you know my line? Yeah, what's that.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
I like really good TV and I like really bad TV.
It's the in between that doesn't interest me. If it's
really bad, I'll watch. Okay, But we're calling it the
heat Dome, bringing extreme heat in humidity to more than
two hundred million Americans. Now what you'll hear the consensus
of all the doctors is it's the suddenness of it.

(04:09):
Do you remember when you told me to stop my
wine and pizza, boy, because I left here and it
was a cool sixty eight degrees and I arrived in
Palm Beach, Florida and it was ninety five felt like
one hundred and.

Speaker 3 (04:22):
Two breathing water humidity, boy, Yeah, because of the sudden change.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
Now today, when it happens where you live, doctors, scientists
are all saying, well, this, you're not going to be
a you know, you're not used to this extreme heat. Yet,
when you have such a sudden shift, heat stroke becomes
a factor, Heat illness becomes a fact. That's what I
was experiencing.

Speaker 3 (04:43):
No, you weren't that in.

Speaker 5 (04:45):
A lot of long speeches, it was sympathy you have
in those sympathy bans, don't even go there.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
I'm wrapped in a back brace holding ice packs.

Speaker 3 (04:54):
I look like I'm in the movie Ghostbusters.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
I'm the only one on earth stiffer than that reporter
in Israel, Brian Stotz. Boy, what's the reporter's name that
looks like Bob the punching Bag?

Speaker 3 (05:07):
I can never remember his name. Remember his name?

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Is it Mike Tobin? Yeah, I'm stiffer than him right now,
look at me. By the way, I had a great
dream last night. It started out it was like a headfake.
My gosh, this is turning into an ad D Friday,
isn't it. We don't have a theme for that yet.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
We need one.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
So anyway, I'm in this dream and it's like all
the girls that I had crushes on from high school
were there.

Speaker 3 (05:35):
Thank you at least give me.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
The harp, And I was fixated on school supplies. But
just like in school, at some point there was the
diversion where I taught a lizard how to chew ice.
I thought that was a really strange twist in the
entire dream. It taught a lizard to chew eyes. So anyway,
I'm at Kio Academy. One of the old girls from

(05:57):
Kio Academy who was a junior when I was a freshman,
wanted to date. We were dancing, we were talking about dating,
and the next thing I know, Coach Hartnett is there
and they're short of players because some got suspended and
they needed me to play football, which was fine. I
started putting on my uniform. I can't find any of
my elbow, my arm pads, four arm pads, my neck roll, nothing.

(06:19):
Then I realized I don't have I don't even have
shoulder pads. Somebody hands me a beautiful pair of shoulder
pads NFL quality. I put on the shoulder pads. When
I grabbed my jersey, it's the number I wanted, eighty four.
I put my jersey on. I go, I just need
a helmet, and they hand me a pure white helmet
with no logo and no face mask. And it's not

(06:42):
till then that I turned to the mirror and I
put the helmet on, and it's my old face and
a helmet.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
Your dreams are as add as your life.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
And then I take the field with no face mask,
and I'm like, just throw me the ball. I could
do this.

Speaker 3 (06:58):
It's now.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
They used to play in the third and I'm out
there and I literally played in a football game, which
I'm dying to do. I wish a high school would
invite me. I would love the.

Speaker 3 (07:06):
Adult leagues, go out there and join an adult life.
Look at me, I don't even know how I did this.

Speaker 6 (07:11):
Look at them?

Speaker 3 (07:12):
You are back? Really?

Speaker 1 (07:13):
Yeah, no, I don't think I can. But it was
so fun to play football but without a face mask.
It was kind of like the old you know NFL
films run like you know, Babe Ruth around the basis.
That was my dream last night. And then the alarm
went off right in the middle. I guess that's an
interrupted sleep cycle in and of itself, isn't he So yeah,
all right, let me get back to the seriousness of

(07:34):
the day. So, like the Iron Dome, another activist judge
shot down by appeals court and the president proven within
his rights. Everyone will ignore that Trump will not make
his decision for two weeks. I don't think you should
trust two weeks, but I think he is trying to
give them time. But there will be element of surprise,

(07:56):
and that just leaves this one dangly participle, if you will.

Speaker 3 (08:03):
We have a.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
Mysterious seven forty seven pattern of flights from China to Iran.
That is just kind of wispy on the internet, like
it's some kind of conspiracy theory from O Waco.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
But this is a real deal. Now listen.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
The first thing he goes through my head is, but
those of you that didn't, you know, go beyond the
storyline of mash That was a real war, the Korean War,
and we were doing really, really good, and then somebody
pushed us all the way back to the thirty eighth
parallel that we never recovered from Red. You're in class

(08:47):
today without a face mask. Who pushed us back to
the thirty eighth parallel? That would be China? Very good,
pull your awful quiet, and you have a lot of
bourbon for a freshman, all right, I digress. All right,
So I still don't trust and plus are dependent on
a run for oil. What's going on with it is this?

(09:07):
Are these planes being used to evacuate people from Iran
to deliver systems to Iran?

Speaker 3 (09:14):
We just don't know. But somebody should get to the
bottom of that. And just like a.

Speaker 1 (09:19):
I don't know, like somebody pass gas and they won't
run up to it. We're just all, you know, it's
just lingering draft kings we've opened up this Pandora's box.
You can't watch any game noice. I've gone this long
without acknowledging. Last night we couldn't play defense. We couldn't

(09:41):
hit a three, we couldn't drive the lane, we couldn't dribble,
we couldn't stop turning the ball over. We were dominated
one eight ninety one, and by the way, for most
of the second half we were down thirty. There will
be a game seven in the NBA Finals. I like
to do this like the home announcer when they introduced
the away team aready let up for the Oklahoa City Thunder.

Speaker 3 (10:02):
Everything's I could throw away? You think twitch sevens they
have a chance.

Speaker 1 (10:06):
Do they have a chance on Sunday the Thunder? Oh,
I think we'll win. I think we'll bunce back. There's
a pattern that with this young team. But they were dominated,
and obviously the Pacers are gonna have a lot of confidence.
So it all comes down to one game, which is
kind of how they do in the NFL, Right, why
not in the NBA. As it turns out, it'll be
one game in Okay see Sunday night at seven. But anyway,

(10:29):
you can't watch any game without just constant betting references.
The announcers even do it. I'm gonna spare you because
it's already fifteen minutes after the hour.

Speaker 3 (10:41):
The whole casinos. They didn't want casinos.

Speaker 1 (10:45):
They don't want to feed you, they don't want to
clean your room, they don't want to deal to you.
Now they have athletes and sports twenty four to seven.
You can bet cricket in Indian in the middle of
the night and they have no overhead whatsoever, just your
lost wages. And now you've had dumb governors allow this,

(11:08):
and some of them, including in the state I live in,
bragging well, we stood up no casinos like they ever
wanted a casino. You gave him the ultimate and now
they're forming a political action committee.

Speaker 3 (11:21):
We could go wrong there, right.

Speaker 1 (11:23):
Possibly Sounds of the Day today, you know, I say,
sometimes we have a Grammy always revealing, often entertaining every time,
and then we have like a Grammy award winning Sounds
of the Day. Well, today I got involved because Redd
did such a poor job at this. I'm not gonna
what are you throwing your pen for. There's not a
single one I could use. I could give you a
couple of examples. Most of them are deleted. I got

(11:44):
you Rid, but I went and found some doozies. This
is Oscar nominated Sounds of the Day today.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
Did I mention where did he go?

Speaker 1 (11:56):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (11:57):
Don't be that way.

Speaker 5 (11:58):
That's the greatest lie, not even bug Ridd just turned
his camera off.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
Well that he was taken out by an Iranian missile.
She topped the charts for decades, two three decades. That
in and of itself isn't toured for over six decades.
She's still touring ladies and gentlemen. The Great Dion Warwick
is our spotlight Interview of the week. Coming up next
half hour. Roy o'nil's going to be joining us on
the latest between Iran and Israel and when the US

(12:23):
will get involved the trade agreement with Great Britain, the
border secured, big decisions on around another victory in the
courts in California.

Speaker 3 (12:34):
Oh what a week.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
Flag erecting week for Donald Trump.

Speaker 3 (12:37):
He'll join us in Fridays with forty.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
Seven and John Decker, the White House Correspondent, will be
traveling with the President next week to the NATO summit
in the Netherlands. We'll have all of this and more
because you know why, you only have one chance to live.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
This Friday, June the twentieth and twenty twenty five.

Speaker 4 (12:51):
It's Your Morning Show with Michael del Choino.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
President is saying he'll decide on possible US intervention with
the Iran in the next two weeks.

Speaker 6 (13:02):
Kate Fisher reports, as President Trump ways taking military action
in Iran, the US has been building up military forces
in the region. While the Pentagon says the build up's defensive,
it does better position the US should Donald Trump decide
to join Israeli attacks on Iran. It could also be
a tactic to pressure Iran to make concessions. Kate Fisher, Washington.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
President Trump says Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is costing
the United States hundreds of billions of dollars.

Speaker 2 (13:31):
In a post on truth Social Trump said Powell is
truly one of the dumbest and most destructive people in government.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
He added the Fed Board is also complicit.

Speaker 2 (13:39):
Trump said that Europe has had ten interest rate cuts
and the US has had none in that time. It
all comes after the Central Bank left interest rates unchanged
once again this week.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
I'm Mark Mayfield, the last American hostage to be freed
by Hamas is returning to his hometown in New Jersey.

Speaker 7 (13:53):
Don Alexander was set free last month after being in
captivity for nearly six hundred days. Hundreds of people gathered
for afternoon celebration in downtown Tenafly for the twenty one
year old. The Tenifly High School grad signed up to
join the Israel Defense Forces when he was eighteen. He
was captured during the Hamas October seventh, twenty twenty three
attack on Israel.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
I'my S. Taylor.

Speaker 1 (14:13):
It's kind of like watching the Iron Dome, right some
activist federal judge fires a missile at Trump and then
the appeals court shoots it right back down.

Speaker 3 (14:22):
Happened in California again.

Speaker 8 (14:23):
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeal says the President is
within his rights to deploy troops amid protests in southern
California over immigration raids.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
The ruling by the three.

Speaker 8 (14:32):
Judge panel allows nearly four thousand National Guard troops to
remain deployed in Los Angeles. Governor Newsom sued the President
over his decision to deploy the California Guard. Last week,
a federal judge agreed with Newsom and ruled that Trump's
actions were illegal. I'm Tammy Trhio.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
I guess everybody that you know is funny or tries
to be funny. They have someone that ultimately been trying
to make laugh for me. It's my brother Vic. That
was always a big score when I could make him laugh.
And I remembered something from our childhood that made him
laugh on our Chicago trip, and that was my father's
one minute warning threat. I don't know where it came from,

(15:08):
probably his father, but we'd always this was like stop
it or else, but he would go in one minute.
But then he never said what would happen in one minute?
Donald Trump's having a one minute moment with TikTok.

Speaker 3 (15:23):
In one minute? Ah, what nothing's happening in one more minute.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
President Trump is once again extending the deadline for a
TikTok sale.

Speaker 3 (15:34):
Matt Mattinson has the very latest.

Speaker 2 (15:36):
The popular video sharing apps China based owner by Dance
now has until September seventeenth to sell it or have
it possibly banned in the US. This is the third
time Trump has extended the deadline. Earlier this week, Trump
said he believes Chinese President Shi jan Ping would be
willing to approve a deal to sell the app. The
law banning TikTok if it isn't sold was passed under

(15:57):
former President Biden. I'm at Mattinson.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
Do you know what I always say, if you're gonna lose?
Was big? Just one loss? And boy did the thunder
loose big. Trailing by thirty for much of the second half.
The Pacers have forced a game seven, winning one O
eight ninety one at home. Games seven will be in
Oklahoma City Sunday night, one game to take it all.
In the NBA Finals, Tiger split a doubleheader, Cards took

(16:20):
two from the White Sox. Guardians lost two to one
of the Giants. Brew Crew outslugged the Cubs eight to seven.
D Backs beat the Blue Jays nine to five, Race

your morning show. I'm Michael del Jernal. We can't have
your morning show without your voice. That's why we encourage
you to use the talkback button if you're listening on
your iHeart app.

Speaker 3 (17:17):
It's a little microphone.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
You press it, you can ask a question, make a comment,
just like James and Nashville did.

Speaker 3 (17:22):
Good Morning.

Speaker 8 (17:23):
I just tried to send an email to the program,
and I think I must be spelling the name wrong.

Speaker 3 (17:28):
Because it came back as said an email failure.

Speaker 2 (17:31):
Would you mind giving the complete email address at sometime
during the show this morning?

Speaker 9 (17:36):
Thanks?

Speaker 1 (17:37):
Well, how about now? It's Michael M I C H
A E L D. The letter D as in dynamite
Michael D at iHeartMedia dot com. Michael D at iHeartMedia
dot Com To Roger and Sacramento, we go.

Speaker 10 (17:56):
Morning guys, I've been waiting all week to get this question.
News has been kind of heavy. Ever since I was born,
I've always been curious about how things work. So my
question for each of you is, besides the fifteen on
air hours, how many hours do.

Speaker 3 (18:11):
You guys put in a week?

Speaker 10 (18:13):
And secondly, how many of those hours do you guys
work all together? How many are do you work on
your own?

Speaker 3 (18:19):
That's a good question. Do you want me to start?

Speaker 1 (18:23):
Okay, there's an old rule in talk radio for every
hour on the air, there's an hour of prep. It's
that or more. The three of us are all doing
separate things throughout the day. Poor Jeffrey could be busy
either editing the promo, editing an interview we've done, or
maybe he's actually trying to be with his wife. Well,
he'll get constant pictures of my car radio on a

(18:46):
song for a rejoint. I did this most of the time,
of which he'll say.

Speaker 3 (18:49):
Red, we already have that.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
I'll go it'll be nice to hear it because he
keeps playing the same five over and over again. So
there's interaction throughout the day. Red and I will interact
throughout the day, but by and large. The only time
we're all really together is the three hours we're on
the air, me and Jeffrey, the hour before we're on
the air, Red joins us a little bit before the
show starts. I don't know what it comes to a

(19:13):
day by the time I do liners for affiliates or
record commercials, planning guests, planning the next day show. A
good day for me is I'm done in ten ten hours.
A bad day for me as I'm over twelve. But you, guys,
pretty cushyre. He's somewhere in there at seven a day, right, eight?

Speaker 5 (19:33):
Yeah, I mean seven eight hours and then read Now
we have second jobs too. I worked at the dairy dip,
so we have to have second jobs in order to
keep the lights on at home.

Speaker 3 (19:46):
But yeah, good enough of you guys. Listen to that voice.

Speaker 1 (19:52):
You know, whenever I think of Diane Warwick, I just
think of effortless class and greatness.

Speaker 3 (20:00):
Effortless greatness.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
You can it's a good There are so many things
I've always wanted to say to you, like, uh, walk
on by. My brother whenever we were playing monopoly, when
he didn't land on my hotel, he'd saying, walk.

Speaker 3 (20:21):
Home by, you know, and then I remember.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
Being, oh gosh, I don't know, maybe thirteen years old.
Do you remember doing like a special on HBO and
it was one of those channels, and I'll never forget
you just came out and you just sat down on
a stool and and just perfect pitch and energy. Just
sitting there came this great get. You're just such an

(20:47):
amazing talent. It's an honor to meet you.

Speaker 11 (20:49):
Thank you, my dear. I appreciate that.

Speaker 3 (20:52):
And I love the way you're living. Eighty four years old,
you're still touring.

Speaker 9 (20:56):
That's right, sure I am as long as I can
do it of them.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
To do and you can. I was watching the documentary.
I think it was Greatest Night and Pop. It was
the making of We Are the World and you were
kind of told last minute you're coming. I guess, I
guess when Quincy says you're coming, you're You're like, no,
I'm in Vegas, But you came. What was that night
like that? That was extraordinary and your vocal was so

(21:21):
so you.

Speaker 9 (21:22):
It was absolutely amazing. Evening was you know, first of all,
getting to see folks I hadn't seen in a long
long time. You know, we see each other running past
each other in the airports and that kind of thing,
but you know, to be able to sit down and
find out what's going on in their lives lately and
and in mind. It was a joy, It really was.

(21:45):
It was one of those evenings. And I've said it
so several times that I'd be like a broken record, but.

Speaker 11 (21:52):
You had to be there.

Speaker 3 (21:54):
Did you all know?

Speaker 1 (21:55):
Did you know history? Did you sense the moment of
history that was happening and documented? Not to mention a
great song when it was all said and done, but
the collaboration the greatest art that that was such a
special Did you know it while it was happening.

Speaker 3 (22:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (22:12):
When you look at that room of the artists that
were there, goodness, I mean it was every artist in
the industry basically that was still very very vibrant and
very much alive making recordings and being it was. It
was really wonderful, you know, and all friends, all friends.

Speaker 3 (22:35):
You know.

Speaker 1 (22:35):
I love the press release ses to commemorate Black Music Month,
Grammy winning I love that Grammy winning, six time Grammy
winner fifty. My son and I do this in the
car all the time. We sat and I'll go I
wonder how many top tens they and how many number
ones you had? Fifty six top one hundred songs, twelve
top ten songs. It's a remarkable career. But when I

(22:58):
read that to commemorate Black Music Month, and I'm thinking, Okay,
I'm as white as they get from northern Italy. But
I mean I grew up loving you, Diana Ross, the Spinners,
the Four Tops, Gladys Knight.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
I'm thinking, I don't know how you know black this is.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
I mean, I grew up probably more influenced by Motown
than even rock and roll, and I had a lot
of rock and roll influence. But your role in that,
And do you ever think about that, like I never.
I grew up, thank God, in an era where we
didn't think that way. My best friend was a person
of color. I loved people. My wall was all posters

(23:36):
of people of color. It wasn't until later in adulthood
that America got so obsessed with color. But there was
a time in Motown and specifically where that was a
strategy too, and it was really used music like athletes
to unite the country in ways that politics has done nothing.

Speaker 9 (23:52):
But Paul's apart absolutely, you know, it just shows you
had the taste us all.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
Did you have a favorite song?

Speaker 1 (24:02):
I mean collaborated a lot with Burt Backrack, who always
put together great tunes, But I mean I brought up
walking on by say a little Prey for you probably
the biggest tip.

Speaker 3 (24:13):
But there were so many of your songs that I loved.
Did you have a favorite? Like a child?

Speaker 11 (24:19):
Well?

Speaker 9 (24:19):
No, all of them were you know, you know, I
grew up with you know, Frankie Lamen and Teenagers and
the Monotones and right oh, those wonderful groups that were
doing it to death. So you know, naturally I'm listening
to music that I grew up with as well.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
Do you get sick of being referred to as the
Great Dion Warwick? That's what he said, the Great Dion
Warwick joining us. You're gonna be at the Apollo Theater.
I guess that begs the question, have you ever you
had to have it all these decades? Played the Apollo?

Speaker 3 (24:55):
Right?

Speaker 11 (24:56):
Absolutely? That was where I started.

Speaker 9 (24:58):
Actually Gospel group entered the Image and night on the
Gospel Show, and as it turns out, we won. It
was my first son at the Apollo, and it was
when I'll never forget and we'll always remember.

Speaker 11 (25:14):
It was a very magical night.

Speaker 3 (25:17):
Do you remember who you beat.

Speaker 11 (25:20):
Well, it was five of the gospel groups.

Speaker 3 (25:22):
Yeah, you beat them.

Speaker 1 (25:25):
That gospel influence, you know that, that's something I just
watched the latest Whitney documentary and you know her mother, Sissy,
and her love for singing in the church and her
faith was so authentic. And then of course you know
all the demons of life that tugged and robbed at that.
But that you know, we go to some of the

(25:45):
greatest singers, Elvis Gospel, you gospel, I mean that influence,
how it shaped your life and even how you handled fame,
I would imagine, right, and.

Speaker 9 (25:57):
Also the understanding of what you're saying and to getting
to people here from you. You know, words very very powerful,
and gospel music is actually psalms in music.

Speaker 11 (26:12):
Sure, it's a word of God said being sung.

Speaker 9 (26:16):
And if you understand what you're singing, you know what
you're giving, and that I think is the most important
part of recording, and especially we'll hope that most of
our kids today will start listening to what they're saying.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
And it sounds like you get it, Dion. There's something
about music. It's amazing to me. You know, the other
day Billy Joel song came on a song I really
don't like because of the words and the meaning of it.
But you know, and all of a sudden, I'm just
you know, come out Virginia.

Speaker 3 (26:49):
All the words. What is it about music that you know?

Speaker 1 (26:52):
People memorize scripture and it's it's work and they still
have a hard time re calling it. But a song,
every word, there's there's something about how magical music. That's
why those words are so powerful, because they're going to
be in you know, you're driving around your head. She's
just sixteen years old, leave her alone.

Speaker 3 (27:09):
You're like, what is that you're about?

Speaker 11 (27:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (27:11):
I know, yeah, but there is something powerful about music.

Speaker 9 (27:16):
No doubt, you know, especially the words that you're sharing
with people. You know, people want to hear words of happiness,
of joy and love and sometimes tears. Yeah, but songs
that have meaning right And I fortunately had one of
the best songwriters in the entire world as far as
I'm concerned, right for me, And that was how David.

(27:39):
He wrote words that he felt people wanted to hear
and needed to hear, and I was fortunate enough to
be the one to give them to you.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
Busying with you on Warwick for you know, obviously at
the Apollo on June twenty seventh, but you're actually doing
a little mini tour and I know we're heard nationwide,
but we're on in Impact Radio in Tampa. I know
you're going to be in Tampa, on in San Diego,
Los Angeles, San Francisco, Sacramento, in California.

Speaker 3 (28:04):
You're gonna be in California.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
And this is really kind of like a celebration really
of a lifetime of music, isn't it.

Speaker 11 (28:11):
It certainly is.

Speaker 9 (28:12):
You know, I'm so happy that I'm here to be
able to be a part of that.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
And you still got it. Yeah you do, Yeah you could.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
I mean, you can still hit the notes. Not everybody
can say that music has changed so much in your lifetime.
I mean, think of I can't. I mean, you're the
same age as my mother, and what you've seen from
childhood to when you won that competition at the Apollo
to your great career that spans decades. Think of how

(28:44):
the industry has changed from when you started to now.
I mean, what do you even make Somebody sent me
a song they wrote and they were like, can you
help me get this? And I'm like, look, there's only
one thing that's more uncertain and chaotic than the television
and radio industry, and that's the music in history. I
don't even know would how would a Dion Warwick today

(29:06):
even become.

Speaker 12 (29:06):
A Dion Warwick and very very carefully, well, I guess
they're still winning competitions, right American Idol the Voice, and
so absolutely yeah, you know, yeah, everybody should start thinking
about the messages that were carrying and the things that
were saying and giving people to hear and understand. They

(29:31):
have quite a few of our artists today that I
feel should take a listen to those who were happening
in the fifties and sixties, in the early seventies and
parts of the eighties, who were giving songs of joy
and happiness and inspiration and you know, knowing that these
were words that people needed to hear and also wanted

(29:53):
to hear.

Speaker 1 (29:54):
There are some exceptions, I guess Coldplay, Broom Five and
some but by in law charge, isn't it amazing how
we're all still listening to these songs from the sixties
and seventies to some degree the early eighties, that they
had the test of time and that nothing has really
superseded it along the way and never will never will.

Speaker 9 (30:17):
You know, these are words that people want and need
to hear, and that's why they go back to those
ridiculous songs, and that's why they sit in those seats
and conscience to hear those words come out of the
same person they gave them to Jump Street.

Speaker 11 (30:34):
So you know, is this still hope? Okay?

Speaker 1 (30:37):
So one of my producers is Red, and Red wants
me to bring up Solid Gold?

Speaker 3 (30:45):
All right, So, but maybe you can end this.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
I don't know why I remember you, And of course
I remember Marilyn McCoo may have been one of the
loves of my life. I mean, he was just beautiful, talented,
the mom. But I remember maryl I'm a coup. I
remember you. But did it start with or end with?
Rex Smith?

Speaker 3 (31:04):
Wasn't Rex Smith in Solid Gold?

Speaker 2 (31:06):
You know.

Speaker 3 (31:09):
You don't remember either, do you? I don't do you
know what?

Speaker 1 (31:12):
I find the older we get, the more it's like
playing password with ourselves.

Speaker 3 (31:16):
Isn't it trying to give us at the clues?

Speaker 1 (31:18):
But you know, Solid Gold that was a really signature
That show made an impact.

Speaker 9 (31:25):
Most of the guys that rid no I know why
he watched solid gold.

Speaker 11 (31:28):
Her name was Darsel.

Speaker 3 (31:31):
Well dancers.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
Right, all right, so you know, obviously a thrill of
a lifetime to meet you. How do you want people
to remember you or what do they walk up and
say to you that means the most?

Speaker 11 (31:45):
Oh, my Heaven's said that.

Speaker 9 (31:47):
I've had so many wonderful things said to me that
I brought them out of a zep dark hole. And
my my daughter was born I named Dion, right you
things of that nature. People have wonderful things to say
to me, and you sang my favorite song. Those kinds
of things mean awful lot to me, and hopefully it

(32:10):
continues to mean a lot to those that are still
listening to me.

Speaker 1 (32:13):
And hopefully they'll be their June twenty seventh at Apollo
or any one of the cities on your mini tour.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
Absolutely to get a chance experience.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
I'll always remember you as effortless talent.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
Effortless talent came to me.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
I remember instinctively as a kid watching and I just
saw effortless talent.

Speaker 3 (32:32):
I still see effortless talent. You're a gift.

Speaker 11 (32:34):
Thank you, Thank you, Adele, and I appreciate.

I smiled when she sang that, thanks the.

Speaker 3 (32:52):
Lady, very special lady.

Speaker 11 (32:57):
Well.

Speaker 1 (32:57):
I think the thing on everybody's mind waking up this morning,
on this Friday, June twentieth, is did the President bomb Iran?
And the answer is no. On the timeframe has been
set in two weeks.

Speaker 6 (33:08):
As President Trump ways taking military action in Iran, the
US has been building up military forces in the region.
While the Pentagon says the build up's defensive, it does
better position the US should Donald Trump decide to join
Israeli attacks on Iran. It could also be a tactic
to pressure Iran to make concessions. Kate Fisher, Washington.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
Los Angeles Dodgers say ICE agents were denied entry onto
the grounds of Dodgers Stadium.

Speaker 3 (33:35):
Lisa Taylor has more.

Speaker 7 (33:36):
In a statement, the team said the ICE agents requested
permission to access the stadium's parking lots this morning, but
were denied entry by the organization. Anti ICE protesters had
been seen outside the stadium grounds. It's not clear if
the agents were there to conduct the immigration raids or
if anyone had been taken into custody. The Dodgers are

(33:57):
said to host the San Diego Padres later this evening.
I'm he'sa Taylor.

Speaker 3 (34:01):
Maybe the only way to create a whole bat lineup.
I couldn't resist.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
The court ruling allows nearly four thousand National Guard troops
to remain deployed in LA once again, an activist judge
shot down by an appeal's court, and the last American
hostage has been freed by hamas he's returning home to
New Jersey.
