Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, it's Michael. Your morning show can be heard live
weekday mornings five to eight am six to nine am
Eastern in great cities like Tampa, Florida, Youngstown, Ohio, and
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. We'd love to join you on the
drive to work live, but we're glad you're here now.
Enjoyed the podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Starting your morning off right, A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding because we're in this together.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
This is your morning show with Michael O'Dell charm, Good.

Speaker 4 (00:30):
Morning, Mark Ritchie from will of mina horror again and
your morning show is my morning show with Michael del
journal and boy, we're glad to have him back.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Ah.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
Just think how much you're gonna miss me when I
go to space camp with Rory O'Neal. Le'll me miss it,
especially if we get stuck in space like what was
it smoking the bandon? Or Sonny and Butch lost in space.
Imagine you and me stuck in space, Rory, that'd be
good times.

Speaker 3 (01:01):
Why wouldn't you want to go? I don't think you
know what.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
I didn't hear much while I was gone, but I
did hear that. Why do you Why do you not
like me? Let's go to space camp together.

Speaker 5 (01:10):
It's no no, no, oh boy, your big massive body,
weightless man.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
I mean, what are you seven to but are you'd
be weightless?

Speaker 5 (01:20):
And you just have to have I've got to figure
out the ejector seat situation.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
Eight minutes after the hour.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
Good morning, and welcome to Monday, September, the eighth year
of our Lord twenty twenty five. We've been listening to
a lot of super tramp this morning, remembering Rick Davies
who passed away at the age of eighty one. President
giving a last warning to Hamas and if you fell
asleep last night, you missed a lot. Good morning, Buffalo.
How about that, Josh Allen? And why didn't the Ravens
just hand the ball off to Derrick Henry the entire

(01:50):
fourth quarter? But the Bills come back and win that one,
forty one to forty when an exciting opening week of
NFL football. All right, and baseball, what everybody's been talking
about is this Phillies Karen long drive. Left It's left field, yeah,
left field, home run. Now a man catches the home run,
gives the ball to his son, and Karen believe it,

(02:11):
believes it rightly belongs to her. It's all captured, it's
all gone viral. And what's probably the craziest part of
the story is all the theories of who it is.
We're trying to identify her like the two at the
Coldplay concerts, so we can destroy their life over this
ridiculous moment.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
But it's all false reporting, right.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
She's not on the New Jersey school board or administrative
office and has been fired. That's they're all false. So
far do we know who she really is yet? Not yet,
not yet.

Speaker 5 (02:38):
But she certainly has a distinctive look, and you'd think
that by now we would have gotten nailed down with
the short haircut, the bright colored hair, the big, big,
dark rimmed glasses. But so far, no definitive determination about
who this woman is. And again, if you hadn't seen
the clip, you did a pretty good play by play there.
And all this, by the way, was the dad trying

(02:58):
to get the ball to give to his ten year
old son or his son who's turning ten years old
this week. When the Marlins saw it happen on the gameplay,
congrats to their promotions team. They gave the family a
swag bag. The Phillies top that by inviting the family
after the game to meet with Harrison Bader, who he's
the guy that hit the home run, and then he
gave the boy a sign bat and then Marcus Lamonis,

(03:21):
the guy that owns Camping World, he saw this. He
went on to X to say, I'm gonna send that
family to the World Series my treat.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
Can I'm going to give them an RV Oh my god.

Speaker 6 (03:32):
And everybody look out of your seat.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
We all got oprah Rvy's. I mean that really except
for Phillies Gary.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
But isn't this everything about social media that's wrong? I
mean the notion all right. First of all, she behaved poorly,
and I'm not defending her. I don't want to be
the one guy on radio that does that. But you know,
we all have bad moments, and now we want to
just capture them on film. We want to make one
the devil. You know, this kid's getting way too much reward.

(04:00):
She's probably gonna if we do identify or get way
too much punishment.

Speaker 3 (04:04):
It's just I don't know, Rory, Let's go to space.

Speaker 5 (04:07):
Everything is done to extremes these days, right, so what so.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
This kid now's got forget that, he's got his own,
he's got another ball autographed by the guy who hit it,
swag bag from both teams. He's going to the World
Series and now he's got an RV.

Speaker 3 (04:22):
He's John Madden. Just I wish somebody'd steal my ball
and go home.

Speaker 1 (04:26):
And he's ten this just in the lottery decided to
give him part of that one point two billion dollars too.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
Just what the heck? All right, we'll pat your five
of the numbers.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
Do you have a moment of pause thinking sooner or
later show he's going to identify her and now what
happens to her?

Speaker 7 (04:42):
Well?

Speaker 5 (04:43):
Yeah, I mean, well, by the way, and we have
not mentioned Ai and the memes that have been created since,
which some of them are absolutely brilliant. Yeah, look, I
mean hopefully as the as the bit of time goes by, the.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
Anger will die down a little bit.

Speaker 5 (04:58):
But not sure if she's from the Philly area that
this all happened in South Florida, she may be from there,
so we're trying to figure that out as well. But yeah,
these are not gonna be I'm guessing she's at the
hairdresser today, getting extensions at a die job and also
off to Lens Crafters.

Speaker 3 (05:14):
After that, I got news for you.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
Sally Jesse Rafael is at the hairdresser getting new glasses
at her hair just to not appear to be here.
Rory's gonna be back in the third hour. Hundreds of
South Koreans. They're headed home after the raid by Ice
at the Hundive factory.

Speaker 3 (05:28):
You'll have that story later. Yes, I don't know if
I brought this up.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
I think it was me and you don't want to
do a super Tramp co founder Rick Davies has died
of cancer at the age of eighty one. It's got
all of us remembering just how many great Supertramp songs
there were. Most of the songs, yes, a lot of
the ones that you love, logical song, Give a Little Bit, Dreamer,

(05:55):
Breakfast in America. I could go on down the list
that's actually written and leads song by Roger Hodge. Hodge,
I can do this, Hodgson. The ones that were written
and performed by Rick Davies were Bloody Well Roight and
this one right here, Goodbye Stranger, one of the few
that you'll hear Rick Davies singing the leads on two

(06:15):
very distinct voices, one higher than the other.

Speaker 3 (06:18):
But this was always a favorite line. What a great
album Breakfast in America, though they had hits prior to that.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
All right, turning into case, moving up four big notches
this week.

Speaker 3 (06:28):
A song originally written and sung by the late Rick Davies.

Speaker 8 (06:32):
It's called Goodbye Stranger, and a short, fat kid from
Arlington Heights, Illinois did the whistle on that song, keep
your feet in the ground, keep reaching for the stars.

Speaker 3 (06:46):
I thought he'd probably sing.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
But the other one, Hodges. He his voice I think
is the one that we most associate with super Tramp.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
But Rogers Hodgson.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Yeah, these two they just couldn't get along. But boy,
they were magic together. You think it was probably part
of the chemistry. I mean, so many artists today shut
up so I could talk to get I'm sorry, but
I'm saying they don't. That's where the magic comes from,
the magic. The two don't appreciate each other what I
was doing there. Yeah, people think that stuff's real, so

(07:19):
I have to explain it now. It can't have fun
with it. By the way, A wonderful vacation. How'd you
guys do? It?

Speaker 3 (07:26):
Looks so exhausted. Let me tell you, you got to
get Red sometime off series.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
Red has not had a day off in what a
year and a half, well, because he has a drinking
problem and we fear with you know, if he didn't
have work, what would he do? Probably go on to
Bourbon Hunt. Yeah, next thing, you know, we've been getting
pictures from distilleries.

Speaker 3 (07:45):
No.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
Well, Red can take off whenever he wants. You get
I'm your filling when you take off, it's easy. Yeah,
I'm Red's filing and yours is the guy in la
You are going next month?

Speaker 3 (07:58):
Finally at the end of October. Yeah, right, you have
not have you taken a vacation day yet this year? No,
you look exhausted.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
Look at the bags under his He's either very hard
working and loves this job or he really doesn't want
any time with his wife alone.

Speaker 3 (08:12):
Of orse, she brings him on long hikes in the mountains.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
I mean, I don't know if I'm questioning or love
for you, but it just seems like she always wants
you right next to a cliff.

Speaker 3 (08:22):
We just went eight miles this weekend.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
Yeah, it doesn't think you'd make it. That surprises me.
It's quite the hiker he is. Goes to Montana, I mean,
it's like twenty six miles just to get to his
like llet or whatever cabin, whatever it is. Give me
a you know, I like, you know, four star accommodations.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
All right. I found this story very interesting.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
And again this is one of those where it's not
so much the story, it's what you're sensing behind it.
That's the scariest of the glimpses, right that this this
is just I mean, this is awful in and of itself,
but what kind of an atmosphere produced this that's unthinkably awful.

(09:11):
So the headline is Biden officials, not Republicans, Biden officials
raising concerns on how he issued pardons, often using autopen,
and what looks like a crazy three months before changing power,
high ranking Biden administration officials repeatedly questioned and criticized how
the president's team decided on controversial pardons and allowed the

(09:34):
frequent use of autopen to sign measures late in the term. This,
according to internal memos that were obtained by Axios, this
is at I mean, can you imagine if all people
the Atlantic or Axios or the Washington Post of the
New York Times being the one to blow the whistle
that's how horrific this is. The messages are the latest

(09:56):
signs of the chaos surrounding the eighty two year old
former president during the final weeks of his administration in
two areas that are now being investigated by a Republican
Ledhouse oversight committee. President Trump is sigded in Biden's process
in issuing pardons to try to justify many of his
own controversial pardons and communications on behalf of Donor connected

(10:17):
supporters and others who were imprisoned in twenty twenty.

Speaker 3 (10:21):
But nothing like.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
This after the political backlash to President Biden's parting of
his son Hunter on December first, and what they had
dated the pardon back to same for foul Fauci's was
the one that stunked the most to high Heaven. Do
you think there's anyone that, I mean, you talk about
a smoking gun that you would bring the Fauci pardon

(10:46):
back dated to gain function tells you you knew everything.
He was as an operative all along. But the White
House has began pushing to find more people to grant
clemency too. And we don't presume this was Biden necessarily
doing it, but you know, in the vacuum of nobody

(11:09):
in power. Everybody was wanting to get their hands on
the auto pen. It was a mad dash to find
groups of people that could then be pardoned, and largely
didn't run it by the Justice Department to vet.

Speaker 3 (11:20):
Any of them.

Speaker 1 (11:22):
So whom and who did we pardon? Biden granted clemency
to more people than any other president in US history,
And again it's not really Biden, So it's everybody gathered
around the autopen four two and forty five people. More
than ninety five percent of those actions occurred in the

(11:42):
final three and a half months of the presidency, and
many of those actions, including pardoning other members of his
family on the last day of office, were signed using autopen,
So we don't even know who authorized it. All we
know is that virtually all of them were not vetted
by the Justice Department. By twenty twenty five, Biden had

(12:03):
opted for the auto pen to pardon five members of
his family, including his brother and sister, who had been
accused of leveraging the Biden family name for financial benefit.
The decision to do so was made in a meeting
that included there she is again, First Lady Jill Biden,
do you remember when we used to say, look, I

(12:26):
don't like to say anything bad. I'll just keep my
mouth shut. But if I hold anybody responsible, it's Jill Biden,
because no one would know better the condition of her husband,
and no one would allow their husband and his lifetime
of service carried out in such an embarrassing way. If

(12:50):
I lose my mind or faculties and my wife parades
me around making a fool out of myself, I'd blame her.
What wife, knowing her husband's in this condition, would allow
them fall downstairs, create word salads, make a fool of
himself in a national debate. We're getting a different glimpse now, right,

(13:15):
a woman who really thought of herself as the president
used an old man in a political scheme, and then
she's sitting at cabinet meetings, she's making decisions. This is
all according to their own internal emails. I mean, after all,
this is Axios revealing this, which kind of leads to

(13:38):
my final point, which is what is the left making
of all this? How much trust do they have in
their party moving forward? Get carried out a fake presidency?
Of course, there's going to be fake clemency's and fake
pardons and auto pens. But who are the real people

(14:02):
behind these auto pens and who are these people that
have been pardoned unvetted? And where does this leave the
brand itself? I mean, this is Axios revealing this brand
flaw to primarily a Democrat audience, which really begs an
even deeper question later in the show, when we have

(14:23):
a Republican consultant yms your Morning Show contributor Chris walker On,
because there's no question Donald Trump has damaged the media
brand and he's damaged the Democrat brand greatly. But when
he leaves office, where does he leave the Republican brand?
After all, this has all been a Trump brand, an
orange wave, not a red Republican brand. It's a tough

(14:44):
question for christ answer later in the show. But what
are Democrats making of their own party? And will they
ever be curious while our primary votes were ignored in
three presidential elections and the DNC takes charge, puts in
a figurehead, and then someone else is really running the country,

(15:08):
benefiting themselves and none of us. Where does that leave
them in twenty twenty eight, let alone a midterm election
a month away.

Speaker 3 (15:17):
This is Your Morning Show with Michael Del Chrono. Good morning,
and welcome to your morning show.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
President Trump's borders are Tom Holman says Americans expect more,
can expect more workplace immigration rates just like the one
in Georgia at the Hundai plant.

Speaker 9 (15:31):
That's what he told CNN Sunday, also saying that hiring
illegal workers is a crime and undercuts competition that's paying
you as citizens. Homan's comments come after Immigration and Customs
enforcement agents arrested hundreds of people Thursday at the electric
battery plant, most of whom were South Koreans here illegally.
The South Korean government was able to reach a deal
with the Trump administration for the release and return of

(15:53):
the detained migrant workers.

Speaker 3 (15:55):
I'm Mark Mayfield.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
President Trump positioned what he is calling a last warning
to Hama, surging the Palestinian militant group to accept a
deal with Israel and release the hostages from the Goza.
And the man accused of attempting to assassinate the president
in Florida starts trial today. And he did it again
last night. I don't know how Josh Allen did it.
They were down forty one to twenty something when I

(16:16):
went to sleep, but in six minutes he brought them
back time remaining zero final score forty one forty. The
miracle Bills took down the Ravens in the closing moments.

Speaker 3 (16:29):
Breton, Franklin, Tennessee.

Speaker 6 (16:31):
And My Morning show is your Morning Show with Michael
del Jorno.

Speaker 3 (16:39):
Hey, it's me Michael.

Speaker 1 (16:40):
Your Morning show can be heard live five to eight
am Central, six to nine Eastern and great cities like Jackson, Mississippi, Akron, Ohio,
or Columbus, Georgia. We'd love to be a part of
your morning routine and we're grateful you're here. Now enjoy
the podcast. This is your Morning Show. I'm Michael del Jornam.
President Trump issuing a last warning to hamas take that
deal and released those hostages. The trial for the man

(17:03):
accused of attempting to assassinate the president starts today. Rick Davies,
co founder of Supertramp, has died after a long battle
with cancer at the age of eighty one. And what
a comeback for Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills last night,
coming away with the victory at home forty one to
forty over the Baltimore Ravens. Was also a big day
of sports in New York and that's where your Morning Show,

(17:26):
White House correspondent, and may I add Board of Governors
of the International Tennis Hall of Fame. John Decker was
with the President and a star studded cast for the
finals at the US Open.

Speaker 3 (17:37):
Why you always living the best life?

Speaker 6 (17:42):
Hey there, Michael?

Speaker 1 (17:43):
How are you?

Speaker 2 (17:44):
Got back very early this morning from New York City
from the US Open.

Speaker 6 (17:48):
I was there for the Men's Championship.

Speaker 2 (17:50):
Over the course of the whole weekend, I saw the
men's semis, the women's Championship, and of course yesterday the
men's final. And President Trump was there, the first time
he's appeared back at the US Open since twenty fifteen,
and mixed reaction in terms of when his picture was
shown on the big screens at Arthur Ash Stadium in

(18:11):
Flushing Meadows, New York.

Speaker 1 (18:12):
I was going to ask you, why does it seem
to me? I mean, I'm looking at who the president
was there? Milania was there, the first lady, Bruce Springsteen.
That's an odd pairing with the president, Michael J. Fox,
Potentially a nod pairing with the President. Jerry Seinfeld. I
wouldn't think necessarily as a support of the president. And
I was going to ask you in general tennis fans

(18:34):
US Open fans, if that would be.

Speaker 3 (18:38):
Hostile ground for the president, Well, let me make this clear.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
The people that you mentioned, the celebrities that you mentioned,
they were not sitting alongside the president. They were in
attendance at the US Open, but they were not invited
guests with President Trump. So they were there because they're
tennis fans or they want to be seen. They want
to be with the people that invited them, whether it's
the President in suite at the US Open. As for

(19:02):
the fans themself, like I said, mixed reaction, the President
was shown on the big screens three times in total,
and each time again it's all in the ears and
eyes of the beholder. I thought there were more booze
and sheers, But there were cheers for the president, that
is for sure.

Speaker 6 (19:18):
But there were loud whistles, loud.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
Booze for President Trump upon his image being shown up
on the big screens. It was shown before the matches
even started, during the national anthem, and then right after
the first set concluded of the men's championship.

Speaker 3 (19:35):
I always have to do this.

Speaker 1 (19:37):
I have to acknowledge whether I'm talking to John Decker,
the White House correspondent, or John Decker the bar attorney,
or John Decker the Board of Governors of International Tennis
Hall of Fame. But I was thinking, as I said,
I love you goodnight to my wife last night, she's
watching Miss America on the computer because Miss America is
not even a televised event anything.

Speaker 3 (19:56):
Wow. And then I grew up.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
Oh my god, Connors and Borg, Chrissy Everett and Martina Navratalova.
I mean, tennis was just a part of our everyday life.
Now doesn't seem like it so much. What is the
state of tennis and what do we learn about it
from the US Open. I can't even tell you who won,
but I can tell you whoever it is, I probably
can't pronounce the name.

Speaker 3 (20:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:21):
Well, there's more success for the American tennis game on
the women's side than there is on the men's side.
In fact, Sloan Stevens won the Australian Open Championship that
was in Australia in January, and then for the French
Open that was won by Coco Goff, two Americans winning

(20:41):
the first two Grand Slams of the year. The last
American man to win the US Open, or for that matter,
any Grand Slam was Andy Roddick and that was back
in two thousand and three. So it's some work to
do on the men's side. The women really aren't at
the top of their game, and they are so competitive
in every Grand Slam that there is.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
Is it fair for me to say that when I
was a kid, golf and tennis were about equal, And
I don't have to tell you today what golf is
sort to compared to tennis in America.

Speaker 2 (21:13):
Oh, you're absolutely right, that is very true. You know,
I think that, you know, based upon the crowds that
I saw at the US Open, there's still a huge
love of tennis. It's the largest tennis stadium in the
world in Fletching Meadows, about twenty four thousand built to capacity.
It took a while, by the way, for all the
fans to get in there because of the increased security,

(21:34):
huge amount of security, and you can understand that when
the president's attending any sporting event. But that being said,
you know, look, there are fans out there. There's so
many sports out there, Michael, whether you're talking about team
sports and you mentioned the individual sports, I mean NFL
football dominates a week after week, especially this time of year,

(21:54):
with it being the first Sunday of the NFL season,
so more people really paying to the NFL than they
were to tennis.

Speaker 3 (22:02):
Yesterday.

Speaker 1 (22:02):
White House correspondent John Decker also a board of governors
with the International Tennis Hall of Fame. Do you think
possibly it's going to sound really lame for someone of
your stature in tennis?

Speaker 3 (22:14):
But can it be they got too good? You know?

Speaker 1 (22:17):
I remember even when I was a kid, when you
started getting to Andrea Agassi and others. Even later, the
men got so good there weren't really volley so much
anymore whereas the women would. And then the women have
gotten too good. But you go back to the old days,
you know, Stan Smith, than others, they were long volley.
It was a little more exciting to watch, and now

(22:37):
it's a little bit like watching pong compared to some
of the high def video games we have now.

Speaker 3 (22:43):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (22:43):
I don't know how to help tennis. I remember playing
it as a kid and loving it. I remember having
great stars to follow and watch, both men and women,
and I just don't see it didn't translate at all
to my kids at all.

Speaker 2 (22:56):
Well, Look, ESPN feels there's value in tennis. That's there
to why they air the Grand Slam tournaments.

Speaker 6 (23:03):
You know, all four of them.

Speaker 2 (23:05):
They get a lot big ratings, even yesterday and it
was you know, Sunday football day.

Speaker 6 (23:11):
You know.

Speaker 2 (23:12):
Look, I think that you can always improve things, and
you know, for for tennis, you need personalities. You mentioned
at the very start of this conversation, Michael, the big
personalities in.

Speaker 1 (23:22):
Tennis and rivalries though, right, there was not just a
great person Yeah, because McEnroe probably one of the greatest
personalities of my young life. I mean, Jimmy Connor played
head games with his opponents, but he didn't play ahead games.
You know, it didn't have head you know, games flare
up in the middle of a match. But I mean

(23:42):
there were not just great personalities, great players, great personalities
and great rivalries. And then I guess at some point,
you know, a lot more kids are putting a golf
club in their hand versus a tennis recket.

Speaker 3 (23:54):
It was pretty equal when I was a kid.

Speaker 2 (23:56):
Yeah, that's right. You know, I mean golf is extremely
popular and you know, it's extremely lucrative as well, you know,
if you're pursuing an individual sport. So that's something that
you know, if you're a very skilled athlete and you
have the option, the choice, you know, maybe you're you're
choosing golf over tennis. But that being said, I think
it's just a wonderful sport. I enjoyed playing and I

(24:17):
enjoyed watching it, and you know, I never missed the
US Open. This was my thirtieth US Open, so really
loved the sport and so glad I was there yesterday
when the President was there as well.

Speaker 1 (24:29):
Chris falk I went to high school with his father,
had you know, box seats for the US Open every year.

Speaker 3 (24:35):
He was the CEO.

Speaker 1 (24:37):
I think of moosehead beer, which came in real handy
when we got to college. But you know, that was
that was always fun to see Chris, you know, courtside
every US Open. Now, I couldn't tell you who won
the US Open, and I certainly don't know who won
Miss America, and I think that means not so much
for Miss America, but for tennis.

Speaker 3 (24:53):
There's some work to be done. And you didn't drop
many names.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
I mean you could have dropped Pam Bondi's name, Caroline Levit,
the first lady. I mean, you were hanging with them
all yesterday, mister big shot.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
Yeah, I guess so.

Speaker 6 (25:06):
I guess they're they're all with the president. That's true.
You brought a whole crew up with them on Air
Force one.

Speaker 1 (25:10):
John Decker, everywhere the President is, even at the US
Open love talking to you.

Speaker 3 (25:14):
I'm glad you had a great day. I know what
tennis means to you.

Speaker 1 (25:17):
All right, forty four minutes after the hour, if you're
just waking up, these are your top five stories of
the day. Well, President Trump is again vowing to clean
up Chicago.

Speaker 3 (25:27):
More from Mark Mayfield.

Speaker 9 (25:29):
Speaking to reporters on the White House lawn Sunday, Trump
called it fake news when asked if we are going
to war in the Windy City, We're.

Speaker 3 (25:36):
Not going to war.

Speaker 2 (25:37):
We're going to clean up our city. We're going to
clean them up so they don't kill five people every weekend.

Speaker 3 (25:42):
That's not war, that's tommy said.

Speaker 9 (25:45):
Trump scolded a reporter, telling her to be quiet, then asked,
do you know how many people were killed in Chicago
last weekend? He answered his own question by saying eight
people were killed and seventy four wounded. He concluded by asking,
do you think there's worse than that? I don't think so.
Trump made the comments before going to New York to
watch the men's final of the US Open.

Speaker 3 (26:03):
I'm Mark Mayfield, by the.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
Way, for keeping count this weekend, six dead, twelve wounded
in Chicago. President Trump says foreign companies need to hire
and train American workers and respect our immigration laws. Following
a raid at the Hyundai manufacturing facility in Georgia.

Speaker 10 (26:16):
Trump wrote on truth Social that he was calling on
all foreign companies investing in the US to respect our
nation's immigration laws.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
If you don't have people in this country right now
that know about batteries, maybe we should help them along
and let some people come in and train our people.

Speaker 10 (26:32):
He went on to say their investments are welcomed, and
he encourages them to legally bring in their very smart people.
He says he plans to make it quick and legally
possible for them to do so, as long as they
hire and train American workers. Trump also said he would
look at the possibility of some foreign manufacturing experts being
allowed into the country to help train American workers. I'm
Tammy Trhio.

Speaker 1 (26:51):
Well, I'm taking this with a grain of salt, But
Maryland Governor Wes Moore says he's ruling out a presidential run.

Speaker 3 (26:56):
In twenty twenty eight.

Speaker 11 (26:57):
More made the comment during an appearance on NBC Meet
the Press, saying that he's quote excited about going back
in front of the people of my state and asking
for another term. The Democratic governor has been floated as
a potential contender for the White House. The forty six
year old has been considered a rising star in the
Democratic Party for years, but he gained national attention last

(27:18):
year while displaying his strong leadership style after the Francis
Scott Keybridge collapsed. I'm Lisa Carton with this thing in
your house?

Speaker 3 (27:27):
Is in demon.

Speaker 10 (27:30):
That we ever encountered?

Speaker 3 (27:32):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (27:33):
That was me?

Speaker 3 (27:34):
I did?

Speaker 1 (27:34):
They did get me in one pop scare. I literally
kind of let my son will let me live it down.
But Conjuring, you know, if you're a fan of the Conjuring,
is this the best one?

Speaker 6 (27:45):
No?

Speaker 3 (27:45):
Is it the last one? Yes? Was it still good?
You bet? Conjuring?

Speaker 1 (27:50):
Last Rites scared up eighty three million dollars in domestic
box office one hundred and eighty seven million dollars globally
over the weekend. Last Rights is the eighth number one
opening for Warner Brothers.

Speaker 3 (28:01):

Speaker 1 (28:02):
Meanwhile, Disney film version of the Broadway hit Hamilton was

million dollars. And everybody mourning the and reliving some of
the great music of Supertramp, but mourning the death of
Rick Davies, co founder of super Tramp, died after a
long battle with cancer at the age of eighty.

Speaker 3 (28:20):

Supertramp rose to worldwide fame in the seventies, landmark album
Breakfast in America, earning quadruple platinum status and winning two
Grammy Awards and Captain's log Today is National Star Trek Day.

Speaker 7 (28:41):
Today is a day to flash the Vulcan sign. That is,
if you can. There's a large number of people who can't,
because it requires specific manual dexterity to separate hand muscles
to form a the pattern. Even some actors on the
show couldn't do it. Actor Zachary Quinto used super glue
to hold his fingers in position. So today, live long
and prosper and flash that Vulcan salute as a nod

(29:03):
to its creator Leonard Nimoy. That is if you can.
I'm pree tennis.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
Is that the I never you got to forgive me.
I've seen one Star Wars and I never watched Star Trek.
But wasn't this that my mom used to make us

it right. Yeah, thought I knew how to do that.

Penn State second, LSU third, Oregon fourth, Miami leap frogs
the Bulldogs, and in at number five Florida State at
ten Sunday Night football. I don't know how he did it,
but it's just typical Josh Allen, right, no chance to win,
not enough time. How are you gonna make up twenty

(29:43):
point forty one forty Bills win it? Allen three hundred
ninety four yards two touchdowns. But oh, sir Derreck Henry
one hundred and sixty nine yards and two touchdowns.

Speaker 3 (29:54):
But it was the Bill's forty one forty over the Ravens.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
Last night, Cardinals by seven over the Saints, Commander's twenty
one six over the g Men, Bucks out last at
the Falcons twenty three to twenty. Browns lost because they
don't have a kicker. It's always a kicker or quarterback.
It's a factory of sadness, I tell you. Titans lost
twenty to twelve to Denver Lions slept through their opener
on the road and the Pack pounced twenty seven to thirteen.

(30:17):
Rams squeaked out of fourteen nine win over the Texans.

so glad you were born.

Speaker 8 (31:07):
It's your Morning show with Michael del Chorno.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
This justin from Keith Andrews, who I went to high
school with.

Speaker 3 (31:17):
I was turning into rush here for a second. What
happened this move?

Speaker 1 (31:23):
We listened to a lot of Neil Diamond together, but
on super Tramp he says their album Crime of the
Century an absolute masterpiece, from beginning to end, no filler.
That's kind of how I felt about Breakfast in America,
that one had to dream.

Speaker 3 (31:36):
Nothing about a dream. Probably don't have much time for
sounds of the days.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
Back on your pagers to get up off your as
I mentioned David Copy on the show today.

Speaker 11 (31:48):
That chicken as they're just blowing off steam.

Speaker 1 (31:51):
Well, speaking of blowing off steam, this was the President
blowing off steam on another reporter, this time NBC Yamichi
al Sindora at the White House.

Speaker 3 (32:02):
Listen heay that, Dolly, Let's take two.

Speaker 2 (32:04):
I don't be quiet.

Speaker 6 (32:07):
Listen.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
You don't listen, You never listen.

Speaker 2 (32:10):
That's why you're second grade.

Speaker 3 (32:12):
We're not going to war. We're going to clean up
our city. We're going to clean them up so.

Speaker 2 (32:16):
They don't kill five people every weekend.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
That's not war, that's common sense. The Commons, Why let
me ask you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, really higher than Chicago.
Not excuse me, excuse me?

Speaker 4 (32:30):
Do you know how many people were killed in Chicago
last weekend?

Speaker 1 (32:33):
Hey, now, this is the problem with this whole debate.
This is my two cents. Anyway, there is a difference
between waging war against American citizens and stepping in and
saving American lives. The president's right to point that out.
Our nation's capital is safer. But the ultimate solution must

(32:55):
be that these local municipalities prioritize security and safety. They're
spending their money on everything, but the priority and why
is it a priority? Because nobody wants to live where
they're not safe, nobody wants to work where they're not safe.
And this goes for anywhere. The video that was released

(33:21):
from Charlotte. First of all, this guy didn't even pay
his fare to be on the train. Secondly, he's just
sitting there, obviously a very troubled individual, and just start
stabbing this woman from behind for no reason whatsoever. There's
no reason she's dead. I mean, we can't get numb

(33:44):
to Oh well, that's you know, that's life in Chicago.
Another six dead this weekend, another twelve wounded. That's just
how it goes. And listen, this problem to be narrativised
the way it is being narrativised. It's not just a
New York City problem, a Washington, d C. Problem, a
Chicago problem, a Los Angeles problem. In fact, if you

(34:06):
want to look at the cities with the highest violent
crime rate, Memphis, Tennessee is number one at twenty five
hundred and one violent crime, then Oakland, then Detroit, then Baltimore,
then Cleveland, fifth Kansas City, Milwaukee, Saint Louis, Albuquerque, Minneapolis

(34:33):
rounds out the top ten, and not far behind is Houston, Stockton, Nashville, Toledo,
and Anchorage. Shockingly, Tulsa, Oklahoma is eighteenth.

Speaker 3 (34:48):
On that list. I kind of warned you about that
in a book.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
This is a problem that must be solved, and it must
be solved by local municipalities.

Speaker 3 (34:59):
Prioritizing this afty of his people. Then a president doesn't
have to do this. We're all in this Together. This
is your Morning Show with Michael Vinteld Journo
