Tune in here to this Friday edition of the Brett Winterble Show! 

Brett kicks off the program by talking to Pete Kaliner on the latest edition of The Friday Hangover. Brett commends Pete for not using the term "system fail" during the final segment of his Friday show. Pete explains that he avoids the phrase because he doesn’t want to give Charlotte leaders the opportunity to use it as an excuse to deflect from real issues.

Later, we're joined by RNC Hispanic Communications Director Jaime Florez to discuss Hispanic Heritage Month and how President Trump is resonating with the Hispanic community. Florez begins by praising Trump’s efforts to curb illegal immigration at the southern border. He also highlights how many Hispanic immigrants who are in the U.S. legally take pride in celebrating and sharing their cultural heritage.

In addition to his conversation with Director Florez, Brett also speaks with Breaking Brett Jensen, who provides updates on the ongoing fallout surrounding the death of Iryna Zarutska.

Throughout the rest of the show, Brett covers a range of other stories, including the conviction of a former NASA scientist for mortgage fraud, the emergence of a mysterious “warm blob” in the Pacific Ocean, and the theft—and melting—of a 3,000-year-old Egyptian bracelet.

Listen here for all of this and more on The Brett Winterble Show!

Speaker 1 (00:16):
It is Friday. It is what do we call this
the hangover? We just did the pre game. Now we
got the hangover when somebody asked me a couple of
days ago, where's the game, like we it's.

Speaker 2 (00:27):
During the news, that's where it is. Yeah, we have Yeah,
the game and the party is during the newscass.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
I like that. I like that approach that you're taking there.
It's not fitting for public consumption, really, is that true?
That's a bummer.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
You know.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
We just someday we'll put the score up though for them,
for the people, We'll let them know what everybody wins,
every does everybody does Everybody really win though.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
With these segments?

Speaker 1 (00:51):
Sure, I mean who loses? Nobody exactly.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
So therefore go everybody has won.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
We're a net good, right, So can we can we
claim credits? Can we claim some like you know, the
the the environmental credits? Can we?

Speaker 2 (01:08):
I would say we should definitely put it in our
public file with the FCC.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
As a community service we are we are communities easily
serving everybody as well at the same time, which is great.
Are you still pregaming? No, my pregame is up. Okay,
my pregame was up and it was up a long
time ago. Let me ask you a question. I was
listening to your final the segment before the segment that
I came in on, and I was amazed by you, Pete,

(01:34):
because you did everything but say the magic phrase the
system failed. The system failed. Now do we have to
retire the system failed? Because is it being utilized too often?
How do we do this? I mean, at some point
there's a lot of systems failing all at the same time.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
So I think it is so whenever I say that,
I always reference and credit you because that you were
the first one to alert me to this this axiom
and how it is, and we obviously use it in
a highly ironic way, of course, to call attention to
this excuse.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Making yes yes.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
And that's why I've been trying to steer away from
that when I'm talking about the crime issue, sure, because
I don't want to give the Charlotte leaders that phrase
yes for them to then use as an excuse. Would
they if they do, Wow, then it's it's free rate,

(02:38):
that's true. I'm just waiting now that I'm saying this,
it's kind of.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
It will happen somebody.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
I'm just waiting, right, I'm waiting to hear because I've
heard the system worked.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
I've heard that. I've never heard the system Oh.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
Yeah, the the interim CEO of Cats, he sat for
a very lengthy interview along with the head of the
private security firm, and then the CAT security guy out
of I think Pittsburgh maybe or New York I forget,
and he's only on a job for like six months.
So they were sitting for an interview I think it
was with Hunter Sands from WSOC TV channel nine, and

(03:13):
they were talking about like, oh, you know, from when
the stabbing on the light rail occurred, the first call
comes in and we got the guy within six minutes,
and so the system worked, That's what they said.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
I mean the system worked.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Proof And I went over the same time, like the proof,
and the reporter asked this too, because it's it's a
very obvious question. Your reaction indicates your mind went the
exact same place, which is, if the system working leaves
a girl dead on the floor, I would submit, that's
not the system working.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
That is correct. You need a better system, that is right.
And I want to herald you. I normally do not
herald you, but I want to harold you in a
very specific way. I would have lost my mind and
I would have had my hair as short as it is,
burst into flames if I had to go through those
records that you did for these killers. Well, the Yeah,

(04:10):
I do not understand that we should just have everything out.
Why do we not have it out in the open.
These are adults, They're adults, right, I mean, what's going
on here?

Speaker 3 (04:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (04:20):
You got to do the searches on the Mecklenburg County
Sheriff's Office website under their inmate search, and I don't know.
I mean, I use the Brave browser, so maybe I'll
try it on a different browser. But you know, Brave
is superior and I support their mission statements and such,
so maybe it'll work better on like Chrome or whatever

(04:40):
or Microsoft.

Speaker 3 (04:41):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
Yeah, but yeah, it was just very it's very clunky,
and you get mixed results and stuff. But yeah, you
can see going through when it actually spits out results
for you. Yes, And you know it's not spitting out
all the results because I know there are three people
being held right now in the detention for and their
records are not coming up on the innate search, So

(05:04):
something's not working correctly there. I don't know what, but yeah,
these guys, these four guys now charged with the murder
of this four year old child because they were on
a freaking car theft spree, right, and they've got rap
sheets going back years. And then the guy who just
walked for a murder from five years ago, he finally

(05:28):
went to trial, his co defendant got convicted and he
just got acquitted.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
He walks, and this guy.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
Has a rap sheet going back to when he was
seventeen years old prior to.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
Actually, it's crazy, Yeah, it's crazy. And the thing about
this is is we seem to tolerate far too much
of this, Like there, when is the march? When is
the march for the victims?

Speaker 2 (05:52):
When when there's a vigil this weekend they're doing for
Arena Zerutzka at that train station.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
Yeah, but I mean, but it's got to be an
ongoing basis here. This is the problem. And the more
you surrender, the more that it's going to be taken
from you. And you know, it's it's just simply not acceptable.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
Well, and I think this is one of the things
that I think so it's why the left and the media,
but I repeat myself of it.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
It's why they got so upset with the j six right.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
It's because conservatives don't do that, right, That's all right,
Conservatives don't sure riot. It takes a lot to even
get them to march. I mean, they'll turn out for
like a fallen officers. They'll line the road, you know,
but they're not marching on your buildings. They're not right,
they're not engaging in those types of public, community organizer

(06:42):
type of events. Sure, So to see that happen, it's like,
you know, something is really bad. If this crowd is
out there behaving like a leftist mob, right, you know,
like this is bad. They are so angry, and to
your point, maybe they're doing need to be more of
these marches, more of these protests from the right. And

(07:05):
I think, honestly, a lot of times people on the right,
because I think it's in our general nature. It's like
live and let live. I don't want to buy you know,
I'm not gonna be bothered doing that stuff. And so
they just kind of retreat. But now you're just surrendering
the field to your opponent.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
Okay, so I'm gonna I'm gonna say something that is
Captain obvious style. But the reality is. I think there
are many people who commute into the city to do
their business. They exfiltrate out of the city absolutely every night,
probably don't come in very much in the weekends, things
like that, And so I think people are just like, well,

(07:41):
just it didn't happen to me. So I'm just gonna
go back home and mind my own business and cut my.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
Grass right until you're going out for a sandwich at
lunchtime and get freaking shot.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
Exactly right, right, And that's the problem. People have got
to take ownership of all of this or you're gonna
lose it all. That's insane. I mean, you know, when
you look at what's going on in Memphis, one hundred
and fifty murders this year. God, I mean, and it's
it's September, right, I mean it's not even the prime season.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
They're not even bigger than us.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
No, And that's that's that's like almost double we one
hundred and fifty last week I had that. I had
that number, one hundred and fifty murders.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
Right and so, and I said this the other day.
You know, it's evil destroys. God creates the person who
killed Charlie Kirk, and every single one of the murderers
that killed every one of those hundred and fifty people.
They have not just destroyed the lives of their victims,
the lives of their victims' families, they've destroyed their own

(08:41):
life because they're done right. And they've destroyed the lives
of their families.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
Too, and and all those people who will never be
down the line, right, I mean, it's a generational wipeout.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yeah, yeah, And so that that's what has been the
most disturbing part of the Charlie Kirk response from the
left is that they don't recognize or they're pretending not
to recognize evil.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
I think it's the pretending. I think it's the I
think so.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
I think they're afraid. I think there are a lot
of particularly Democrat lawmakers, officials and party pooh bahs and stuff.
I think they're actually afraid that if they come out
and say the wrong thing, they will be targeted, and
they they would know firsthand that this radical element among
them is radical and a threat, and so they don't

(09:35):
want that on them.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
I think the cash flow stops, and I think that's
the problem, and I think that's ultimately what the sequence is.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
Yeah, yeah, That's why I fully support Trump administration going
after these the nonprofits, the NGOs, all of this stuff
that have been funding these direct action campaigns and Antifa
because they've been given free reign for too long and
it gives people this this false sense of s curity.
I was talking with a guy this morning up in Raleigh,

(10:04):
and he was talking about like the disruption of the vigils.

Speaker 1 (10:06):
And that sort of stuff.

Speaker 2 (10:07):
Yeah, if you honestly believe that these people who are mourning,
Charlie Kirk, if you really believe that they were fascists
and Nazis and a threat to the democracy, why would
you go into their crowd and start kicking over their
flower point? Wouldn't you be so afraid that would murder
you on the spot. But they're not afraid.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
Pete Callender, thanks so much for hanging out with me.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
I always love it.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
I love it as well. Here was Talk eleven ten
out of nine three WBT. We're going to everything is
fair game here today seven four five, sevenho eleven ten.
If you want to pick up the pieces from across
the week, we'll take your call. If you want to

(10:53):
send us a message, you can do it at WBT
Text line driven by Liberty Buick a GMC, and our
telephone number in that regard and in the text line
is exactly the same seven oh four five seven zero
eleven ten. Uh. I'm going to read you a story
here that should be should be just not happening, but

(11:17):
it is happening. A former NASA scientist has pleaded guilty
to mortgage fraud after fabricating income records to finance the
purchase of an eight hundred and fifty thousand dollars luxury
home in Texas. Noreene Cohn fifty two and her husband,

(11:38):
Christopher Mayberry fifty three, purchased the luxury home in Missouri City, Texas,
in twenty seventeen, when con was working at NASA as
a space toxicologist and Maybury was employed as a NASA contractor.

(11:59):
In agreements, Con and Mayberry admitted to taking out numerous
significant personal loans to cover the down payment on the
home based on falsified income documents, before defaulting on those
loans and falsely claiming identity theft. What court documents stated

(12:27):
that in twenty nineteen, well that was back during the
Trump administration. Okay'm sorry. Twenty nineteen, the couple applied for
a new home loan to finance the Missouri City home,
but said the property would be used as an investment
or resale property and not as their primary home. A
loan was approved for eight hundred and twenty thousand dollars.

(12:49):
You know what kind of a nut you gotta cover there, man,
I mean, that is crazy. That is a big amount
of money. The government's investigation also revealed in twenty twenty
that contrayt to wipe away the loan debt by claiming
her identity had been stolen and disputed the accounts on
her credit report, confiled lawsuits against the creditors to try

(13:12):
to eliminate the debt. The lenders eventually charged off two
hundred and seventy six thousand dollars plus didn't end their
court documents state that in twenty twenty one, the couple
refinanced their Missouri City loan for eight hundred and ninety
five thousand dollars. During that process, in October of twenty twenty,
bank statements were altered. So listen to me, Listen to me,

(13:37):
and listen good. This is a crazy story. This is nuts,
this is a problem. You should always be honest. You
should always be honest, especially with your with your economics,
with your with the money that you're going to be
putting up and all that sort of stuff. But does
this put to the lie that she was probably not

(14:02):
a rocket scientist. Wouldn't you think you're going to get caught.
I don't think she was a rocket scientist. Ed. Welcome
to the program. What's on your mind?

Speaker 4 (14:12):
Ed? Yeah, I wanted to talk about the so called
cats three stooges in that interview. Okay, the security guy there,
he goes and he says that word perception, Well, what
is the perception? The perception is that you're going to
create an illusion. No, we don't think there's crime on

(14:33):
the light rail that we can all we can all
walk the light rail and see there's deficiencies there.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
That's correct.

Speaker 5 (14:41):
That's the biggest thing is you can jump over the tracks.
If you go on Woodlawn, you can jump over the
tracks and just jump up to the platform. You don't
have to pay for no ticket.

Speaker 4 (14:52):
I've never seen anybody pay for tickets going up on
the platform.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
Well, they're not doing it because there's nobody to enforce it.
I mean, there's so many there's so many holes in
this regard. I mean, this is terrible.

Speaker 4 (15:02):
You know what they don't they don't even have fenses
right around the around the rails.

Speaker 6 (15:07):
Sure, right, and let's take we'll just take it a
step further.

Speaker 4 (15:11):
You got the city manager over here telling you if
you pay pass the one cent sales text, that's gonna
go for security.

Speaker 1 (15:18):
That is right.

Speaker 4 (15:19):
That should have been in a damn plan before you
even started.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
You're right, you're right.

Speaker 4 (15:24):
Look, then you've got this. Then you've got this group
downtown that's being paid by the taxpayers, right, that's right,
telling telling you about this one cent sales text. Let
me tell you, do not vote for the one cent
sales test. Right, that'll be on everybody.

Speaker 1 (15:41):
Oh sure, absolutely, Look because you know what they're gonna
do federal funds, because they're gonna take the dollars and
they're gonna swish them around and put them in this
bucket and then that bucket and all that. And then
at some other point there they're gonna figure, oh, hey,
everybody's forgotten about the atrocity uh on the rail and uh.
And then some poor person is going to end up

(16:02):
losing their life again and they're going to say, well,
sorry about that it was too bad. Ed You're you're
a brilliant You're a brilliant politicis a politics guy. I
appreciate the call. News Talk eleven, ten ninety nine to

(16:23):
three WBT Brett Witterbule Show. Great to be with you.
Happy to welcome to the program. Somebody whose work I've
admired from Afar, Hi May Flores, is joining us. He's
the RNC Hispanic Communications Director and uh, this happens to
be Hispanic Heritage Month, and I wanted to bring him

(16:43):
on the program and talk a little bit about the
advancements that have occurred in these last months with President
Trump and working with the Hispanic community. Welcome to the show,
Hi May, and talk a little little bit about the
mission here in terms of this conversation, Hi.

Speaker 7 (17:05):
Brad, it is very important for us. We are Latino
Americans and we're very happy to be part of this country.
We are immigrants. Of course, we came through the legal processes.
We established our lives in this country. We brought our
families and we raised our families here. Most of us,
you know, began their entrepreneur qualities to this country and

(17:31):
we started our businesses, our small businesses and we're criving
and we're successful in some of our business, creating jobs
and paying taxes and everything. So we think we have
the right to be called Americans. Been very proud of that.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
And look absolutely, look immigration, legal immigration is the greatest
thing that we can have to refresh the country over
and over again and having people getting great opportunities, building businesses,
building the ability to invest in all that sort of stuff.

(18:07):
But obviously we're looking at all of these cities that
are beset by crime, and we're also looking at these cities.
Shameful to see those who are in the country illegally
still being sheltered by these mayors, these governors, these folks
who just seem to not understand that it's vitally important

(18:28):
to do it legally and to do it properly and
have the right paperwork and all that sort of stuff.
And you did it, and I know tons of people
who have done it as well. So talk a little
bit about, you know, the business of getting people here
to be you know, legal, Brad, It's.

Speaker 7 (18:46):
Something that you have taken too consideration when you see
the numbers that we had during the past administration, people
crossing the border in some cases up to seventy percent
of them didn't speak Spanish. They were not coming from
the Central American countries or Mexico or South America. They
were coming from other continents. And they come after the
jobs that the Hispanics have been conquering for forty to

(19:09):
fifty years. They come after our schools, after our housing,
after our benefits, after all the things that we've been
working in this country for many, many years. So the
thing that the President the promise to do and is
successfully doing is you know, getting rid of those immigrants

(19:30):
that did not respect the laws to start with that
they committed a crime by getting into this country illegally,
and that's not the case of many Hispanics that are here.
We're celebrating our Hispanic heritage, just bringing to the consideration
of people, to the attention of people, the fact that
we've been here. We're part of the history of this country.

(19:53):
The first city in the United States, and Augustine and
Florida was founded by Spaniards. Center is the goal. So
it is very important to be part of this country.
We hate to see sometimes that Americans are, you know,
trying to get a lot of lusions with socialists and

(20:15):
communist policies. Yeah, we've seen that movie already in our countries.
That's one of the reasons why many Hispanics came to
the US, and we don't want to see that movie again.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
So let's let's talk a little bit about you know,
people who are very much on fire for the country.
They are a lot of these younger voters, some of
them who are first time voters that were coming in.
They want the great opportunities that are here. Can you
can you comment on on those younger folks who are
coming in and and being you know, fired up. They

(20:48):
may not be immigrating here, right, they may be born
here and all that sort of stuff, but man, it
is it is imperative to have that next generation ready
to defend what's go about America.

Speaker 7 (21:02):
Yes, and we're ready to do that. And sometimes I
feel like we immigrants, legal immigrants love this country even
more than those that have taken it for granted for
many years. That happens in my family. You know, one
of my daughters was born in my country, Columbia. The
other one was born here, but they both are Americans.
They feel Americans. This is their country. The American flag

(21:25):
is their flag, the anthem is their anthem, the culture
of this country. Of course, we're very proud to have
our culture. But we're very happy too and very appreciated
that we have the freedom to continue bringing our culture
to this country as well. But we are Americans. We
want to fight for this country. We don't want this
country to fall into the wrong ways that many of

(21:47):
our countries in Latin America have. You know, look at
the example of Cuba or Venezuela and so used to
be the richest country in this continent, and now what
they have because they may mad the wrong decisions in
terms of politics. They voted for the wrong guys. They
decided to give away what the customs so much for

(22:10):
many generations by getting into the faults and the fake
stories of the politicians. So we have to be very
careful with that.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
That's absolutely right. You couldn't have said it any better
him and Flores RNC, Hispanic communications director. We appreciate you
being here on the program and so happy to catch
up with you and I look forward to keeping up
this conversation, my friend, Thank you so.

Speaker 7 (22:34):
Much, anytime, Thank you, thank you for the opportunity.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
Enjoy the weekend. My friend. Absolutely, yeah, absolutely, I mean Look,
this is the thing that's the imperative, right, come to
the country, build the country, take the opportunity to spend
your money, do the things that you want to do.
All of that the American dream, right, the American dream

(23:01):
is the dream of independence, of being in a vital
part of this patchwork in this country. We are stewards
of this country. We are stewards right, And the fact
of the matter is we could lose this in a

(23:21):
generation or two. But with folks like I May coming
in bringing his family, we are going to be strong
for the future. And that's the way to be one
hundred percent of the time. Breaking Brett Jensen's gonna come
by next News Talk eleven ten now a ninem three WBT,

(23:50):
it's the Brettwitable Show. Welcoming back to the program. I
always like talking to him, Breaking Brett Jensen. Two Bretts
are better than one. Hey, Brett Jensen, how are you?

Speaker 6 (24:00):
Or so?

Speaker 1 (24:00):
I got a question for you. Pete and I were
talking about, you know, everything that's been going on in
the last few weeks, specifically with with what happened at
the on on the train and all that sort of stuff.
What do we know or what should we know about this,
because it feels like it's starting to slip away from

(24:23):
people's memories and and all of this sort of stuff.
Can you can you break down the latest in this
storyline that's happening.

Speaker 3 (24:33):
Yeah, I've got a couple of things for you. One
last night or yesterday.

Speaker 8 (24:36):
Afternoon, Governor Stein was in Charlotte and for like a
biotech North kinta biotech conference. At the end he took
some questions and in the middle of one of his statements,
he just threw out there nonchalant, almost I contacted Mayor

(24:57):
Lyle's last week and asked her to increase security, to
put a surge on security on the transit systems. And
then he goes and thankfully she did.

Speaker 3 (25:09):
And it struck wait a bitute, Wait what.

Speaker 8 (25:12):
He had to call her in order for her to
increase security.

Speaker 3 (25:17):
So she went two and a half weeks.

Speaker 8 (25:19):
The mayor went two and a half weeks without increasing
security on the transit system after the brutal murders. And
it took a phone call from the from the governor
to do so.

Speaker 1 (25:32):
And I have you ever thought, have you ever in
your life thought like seen something like this happening? Brett no, because.

Speaker 8 (25:39):
I mean Brett. There's a couple of things. Okay, you know,
we all know about the horrific statements that she made,
the horrific that got globally criticized. They were literally criticizing
her on news in Australia and by name mayor.

Speaker 3 (25:56):
Of v Lyles, Charlotte, North Carolina.

Speaker 8 (25:59):
And you're in an election season and it took a
phone call from the governor, you would think just by
you know what it's we're just going to do it,
and it'll be foe security.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
We'll do it.

Speaker 8 (26:14):
We'll just make it look better because it's election season
and this horrible thing made national news.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
She didn't even have the wherewithal to do that.

Speaker 8 (26:24):
It took a phone call from the governor, right and
to make sure this doesn't slip away. On Monday, which
will be the one month said, you know, the anniversary
if you will, or whatever, one month ago to the day,
on Monday night at seven point thirty, starting at eight o'clock, they're.

Speaker 3 (26:46):
Going to hold a candlelight visual.

Speaker 8 (26:49):
At the East West Boulevard light rail station right there.

Speaker 3 (26:54):
CMPD knows about it. It's the mech.

Speaker 8 (26:57):
Gop putting it on in conjunction with like the Ukrainian
Orthodox Church and a couple of other churches. So there's
gonna be like three churches involved, and CMPD is going
to be out there doing.

Speaker 3 (27:09):
Crowd control and traffic and.

Speaker 8 (27:12):
The first one thousand candles are going to be given
out free, but they're expecting a few thousand people to
show up minimum and coming up onto my show tonight,
I have the head of the Mecha, GP Cayle Kirby,
to talk about how all of this came together. He
reached out to a church, a couple of churches reached
out to him like it's a big thing, and so

(27:34):
he'll be on my show tonight to discuss everything. But
I can tell you one of the other things that
they're talking about doing and they're going to announce it.
I mean it's they're going to make it a broader announcement,
but it's okay for me to put it out there,
is that they're.

Speaker 3 (27:49):
Going to petition the city to name.

Speaker 8 (27:52):
The East West light rail station the East Boulevard West
Boulevard light rail Station after Arena Wow and see if
they'll do the Arena or the Zerutska light rail station
or the Arena Zeruska Light rail stop and they're going
to petition the city to name the station after her,
and I will put a lot of money on that.

Speaker 3 (28:16):
There will be opposition to that.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
I'm sure there will. I'm people uh will always try
to find a way to, you know, go down that
sort of a divisive angle. Has has she been? Has
she been laid to rest?

Speaker 3 (28:34):
She has been. She has been laid to rest.

Speaker 8 (28:38):
It was my understanding from sources, and I could be wrong,
you know, because this is this has all been secretive
because the family wanted it to be private. They don't
want it to be a place of martyrdom where people
start showing up at her grave and you know, visiting
and stuff like that. So it has been she from

(29:00):
what I understand, has been laid to rest privately and
without any ceremony, without any fanfare, no escorts from the
Huntersville Police Department, and basically it's just all in silence
and all quiet because they want it to be a
personal spot for them, not a pilgrimage for others, for

(29:20):
people who maybe didn't know her. So but from what
I understand, she has been laid to rest.

Speaker 1 (29:26):
Okay, And finally, are you going to be in the
next couple of days weeks, however, it goes. Are you
going to be bringing back the US attorney to update
on all of this stuff.

Speaker 8 (29:38):
Yes, I will be having more updates on that, and
like I said, we'll be covering the Arena Zuiska thing
on Monday at the head of the chup, talking about
the memorial tonight.

Speaker 3 (29:47):
And by the way, I.

Speaker 8 (29:47):
Should let everyone know, the visual service will be one
hundred percent non political. There will be no mentions of Republicans,
dimensions of Democrats. It's all in honor of Arena Zeruska
and Jim George and the House jud Saric Committee will
be here in eleven days to hold hearings about the
crime and violence going on in Charlotte right now. And

(30:07):
we've had a lot of it in the last week,
so yeah, a lot going on.

Speaker 1 (30:11):
We always appreciate you coming on and thanks so much
for filling everybody in and looking forward to catching up
with you after the weekend. Thanks so much, Brett. We
appreciate you, man, Thank you so appreciate it. You got
it absolutely. I mean, look, that's that's a big that's
a couple of big stories right there. The fact that
she has been laid to rest that they wanted it
to be private, and most importantly, the vigil that this

(30:36):
is this is how things should be. This is how
we should be able to understand that somebody lost their life,
they were murdered, and it shouldn't be a tug of
war fight back and forth. We don't like this person
because of this person and the other person and all

(30:57):
that this. We have to be decent. Decency is important here,
and I'm glad that Break and Brett came in and
talked about this. Yours talk eleventh ten, not.

Speaker 4 (31:34):
In I have three WBT.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
It's the Brett Winterboll Show. Seven oh four five seven
eleven ten. All right, now, you know, I am a boy,
I'm somebody who's very passionate about nature and all kinds
of things like this. Stay there, Robert. I am going
to come to you in a second. Don't go anywhere.
But this is an important story.

Speaker 3 (31:52):
You know.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
I've been all over the storyline of the of the
crazy thing that's coming from outer you guys been following
that story. It's really very frightening, very scary. It's gonna
get here, you know, before we know it. And then
I've talked about another you know, a number of other
things like that as well. Right, I mean, there's there's

(32:12):
a lot of crazy stuff out there. This may top
it all. Mysterious warm blob has re emerged in the
Pacific Ocean and they're saying long term impacts are expected.
Now here's the crazy part of this story. Last night, yesterday,

(32:33):
I think yesterday we were on the air, there was
a seven eight over at Kemchatka. For those of you
who play risk, you know exactly where that is. But
this is like, this is starting to become like a
feature that just keeps coming and coming and coming. So

(32:53):
we got to he had a seven point eight. And
then now people are starting to talk a lot about
the massive warm blob that has resurfaced in the Pacific
Ocean and it could shape the coming winter for the
United States. A major warm water anomaly I hate that word.

(33:13):
Anomaly is a terrible word has developed over the summer
south south of Alaska, sparking concerns for marine life and
continental weather patterns. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration,
the North Pacific sea surface temperature hit sixty eight degrees

(33:36):
in August. That's up Alaska. Up there, we have angered
we have angered somebody, which would put it as the
highest on record. For perspective, the first time it reached
nineteen degrees centigrade was eleven years ago, with records dyading

(34:00):
back to eighteen fifty four. So they're really freaked out
about all this sort of stuff. The temperature spike is
already disrupting marine life. Warmer waters can alter the feeding
pattern of marine animals, trigger harmful algae blooms, stress ecosystems

(34:21):
along the California, Washington and Oregon coast. Don't make a joke.
We don't want this die off to happen. So, yeah,
this is a pretty freaky deal they're saying. All right,
they go back to twenty fourteen and they say a
neutral to weak La Nina and so pattern below average
hurricane activity in the Atlantic and massive cold outbreaks and

(34:44):
snowfall across the Northeast. That's what they're figuring is going
to happen. Wow, Wow, Robert, Welcome to the program. What's
on your mind today?

Speaker 3 (34:57):
Hey?

Speaker 9 (34:59):
I earn some things when I listened to w BT
that the blow torch of the Southeast. Yes, sir, I
did not know anything at all, just like you, I
was absolutely clueless when Pete brought up the ignobles. So
when you mentioned that you didn't know anything about it,
it made me feel so much better because I do

(35:20):
not like to be clueless on anything, and I had
zero idea what he was talking about. So and then
we go to the warm blob. I haven't heard about
that either. That might be a little bit more serious
of a thing, but it's it's for I know you
mentioned that you you have an audience, a curious audience yesterday,

(35:43):
and that's why we're curious because we always learn here
with your show and others.

Speaker 1 (35:49):
Oh, that's very that's very nice of you to say that.
That's that is very nice of you to say. And
you know, we're trying to effort out the information. You know,
there's a lot of stuff that's out there that people
don't necessarily run across, and we try to. We try to,
you know, especially on Fridays, we try to, you know,
put a put a wider horizon on that Brett.

Speaker 9 (36:08):
You efforted every night, dog, and we we appreciate that.

Speaker 1 (36:12):
Well, I appreciate you.

Speaker 10 (36:16):
My pleasure, my pleasure.

Speaker 9 (36:18):
I heard HAINI a little while ago, and it was
an absolute pleasure to hear how he You don't have
to listen to Haimi very long to know that he
and the people that he brought over in his family
have reverence for our country. And there is such a
big difference between immigration that the Democrats like to talk

(36:40):
about incessantly and legal immigration. And of course, if you
watch c Span or the other outlets the last day
or two, you would have said, I'm sure you did,
like I have. I try to. I try to watch
all the outlets. You will see you Rashida to leave
an AOC and ilhan Omar, and when they talk about

(37:03):
our country, I don't believe they have nearly the reverence
for it that Heimi does.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
Yeah, I mean, look, it's hard to judge that, you know,
I would hope that they would love this country. I
think that there is love this country, and then there
is love this country, right and and and I don't,
you know, I don't I don't know what's in their
mind or in their heart, but I certainly it does
seem to me that there is a group of people
who is lurching dangerously left. I mean dangerously. I saw

(37:35):
ilhan Omar speaking in a church yesterday and she dropped
the s h bomb uh in the in the church,
and and I wouldn't whether it was my church or not.
I would never drop an s H bomb uh in
a in a church because it's a it's a holy place,
and it's it's very very uh disheartening to see if

(37:57):
if you can't make the argument with without cursing, I don't.
I don't understand, like maybe you should be in a
different line of work. It just bothers me.

Speaker 9 (38:08):
Well, Brett, that's a very fair point when you say
that we don't know what's in their heart. That's that's true,
and that's fair. But I do know that those three
gentle ladies routinely disparage our country. I do know very much,
very much, and I don't quite frankly, I don't like it.
And if they were my representative, I would I would

(38:28):
tell them about it.

Speaker 1 (38:29):
Yeah, Well, they typically are not making themselves available to
the you know, to the to the public. They go
out and they give these missives and things like that,
and then they disappear, and that's that's that's the problem.
I mean, look, fifty eight and I don't mean to
be political, but I'm going to be political. Fifty eight

(38:49):
Democrats refused to sign on to the the the memorial
for for Charlie Kirk today, and it was a very
very ugly site, no doubt about it.

Speaker 9 (39:04):
Yes, and I think quite a few others on the
Democrat side just voted president, which of course is a yeah.
Is a just a very convenient way of not taking
a stand on an important issue, an important an important strategy.
I think it's fair to say.

Speaker 1 (39:22):
Yeah, absolutely, stick around. Great stuff, Robert, I've got something
for you on the other side of this break. Thanks
so much for being out there, and enjoy the weekend.
My friend News Talk eleven ten, I did nine three WBT. Sorry,

(39:52):
how I was going to go to you, how How
How wanted to know more about the blob I don't
have a whole lot more information on the lobbing. The
blobbing is a pretty scary thing, and I don't I
don't have any additional information. Now, if that thing somehow
makes it to Charlotte, I'm gonna be freaking out because
that means that you're covering a whole lot of territory

(40:15):
in that regard. I'm going to play you a clip
from Jasmine Crockett here in just a moment I'm not
going to comment. See if you can pick up what
she's laying down.

Speaker 11 (40:31):
Go understanding what ends up having people become criminally impacted
really informs so much of what I do legislatively. Right,
So when people are like, oh, you know, crime is terrible,
and yes it is right, like because when somebody goes
out and commits a crime, they don't typically, you know,

(40:53):
say well, I'm a D M A R. I. It's
not like literally like, it's about, well, how do you
fix it? How do you make community safer? And I
do think that I'm in a unique situation because I
was having the conversations with people that were going out
and committing crimes, and so I understood what was kind

(41:13):
of pushing them there. And so I do want people
to know that just because someone has committed a crime,
it doesn't make them a criminal. That is completely different.
Being a criminal is more so about your mindset.

Speaker 1 (41:29):
I uh, I just I don't get that. It's your
mind it's your mindset. So let's expand on this for
a moment. Guy hits guy over the head, Guy hits

(41:50):
the ground and dies, very sad, horrible. If guy who
hit guy over the head that took his life, and
he did not have the mindset of a murderer. It's
all just cool. Yep, Hey, you see what you made
me do to you like that? That's that is like

(42:12):
the that is the single worst thing that anybody has
ever said. You see what you're making me do to you? What?

Speaker 3 (42:21):
What is that?

Speaker 1 (42:23):
Just so we're all on the same page. Yeah, Goever,
she says, criminally impacted person? What is it? Okay, Wait,
she's not referring to the guy that's laying on the
ground dead. She's referring to the guy who hit the
hit the guy who put the guy on the ground dead.
That is now a criminally impacted person. Criminally impacted, So
you're a kip? Yes? Is it a sip or a kip?

(42:45):
It's a little bit of both. Maybe she maybe we
didn't hear it right. Yeah, I want to I want
to understand, like I because I'm not. I for sure
am not of a criminal mind. I just like everybody
and the people that I don't like, I just don't
answer the door. So maybe I'm just being honest. I mean,

(43:08):
I'm being honest with you. The people that either knock
on my door I can see on my ring doorbell,
I'm like, yeah, I'm not gonna answer the door. Why
not because I don't really I don't know. I just
don't want to do it, And why break their heart.
I don't want to have to close the door. Isn't
it nicer for me to just not open the door
than to open the door, acknowledge their presence, and then

(43:31):
disappoint them as I close it? No? That is that?
Is that a looney position? I'm letting them believe that
they can move on to the next house. Right. So,
if like a guy says, hey, I want to climb
up on your roof because I think I can do
you know, a roofing job, nine times out of ten,

(43:55):
I just I shouldn't say this, but I'm good on
it because I don't care. Okay, every time they come
to my place and they tell me that they want
me to do a new roof, I go that roof's
only three years old. And I can attest to you

(44:16):
it is most certainly not three years old, sir. I
was here three years ago. You told me the same thing. Yes, yes,
don't worry about it. Look, I just go up there
every every year and I just paint paint over the
you know the thing the thatch. Just like Jasmine Crockett's politics,
it makes sense if you don't think about it. No,

(44:37):
but hold on, If my mindset is not to deceive
on my roof, then that's that's good. I didn't who
got hurt. Now if I went up there and I said, Okay,
I'm gonna show him I'm gonna be a real fraudster
up on my roof, then that would be something totally.
I'm just using that same logic. I mean, let's le's sell,

(44:59):
let's hear that again.

Speaker 12 (45:00):
I'm I'm interested understanding what ends up.

Speaker 11 (45:07):
Having people become criminally impacted really informs so much of
what I do legislatively.

Speaker 12 (45:16):
Right, So when people are like, oh, you know, crime is.

Speaker 11 (45:19):
Terrible, and yes it is right, like because when somebody
goes out and commits a crime, they don't typically, you know,
say well I'm a d M, A RMI. It's not
like literally like, it's about, well, how do you fix it?

Speaker 12 (45:31):
How do you make communities safer?

Speaker 11 (45:33):
And I do think that I'm in a unique situation
because I was having the conversations with people that were
going out and committing crimes, and so I understood what
was kind of pushing them there. And so I do
want people to know that just because someone has committed
a crime, it doesn't make them a criminal. That is

(45:55):
completely different. Being a criminal is more so about your mindset.

Speaker 1 (46:00):
Okay, I get it now, I got my mind right.
I understand this. So if you don't think you're a criminal,
you're not really a criminal. If you do think you're
a criminal, we're not going to put you in jail
because there's a possibility that you could reform yourself on
your own. And so nobody should ever be held to
account because if you didn't really mean to do the

(46:24):
thing you did, then you're fine. That's that's pretty bold.
That's a bold, bold approach, and I don't buy it.
I'm not buying it. I got to fix for it though.

(46:55):
News Talk eleven, ten ninety nine to three WBT. It's
the Brett Warbow Show. So how are you? That's nice?
I like that. So I've traveled a little bit, I've
gone to different places. I just want to say something.

(47:15):
I think the Waled cities should be coming back. I
think we need waled cities. So waled cities are brilliant
ideas because if you go back to the ancient times. Okay,
to the ancient You can go way back to the
ancient times, right, you go back to Egypt, you can

(47:36):
go back to Israel, you can go back to parts
of Africa. You can go any place you want to go.
But people would protect themselves by living in a communal way,
and at night they would lock the door, they would
lock the big door there in the area, and they
would be safe, they would not be killed. And what

(47:57):
was the problem that the fear was always we have
to get back into that to the place, and we
have to be in there by a particular time, and
then they lock us in. And if you're out stuck
outside messing around doing something like that, you may be
attacked by brigands. Now I didn't say biggins. Brigands. Brigands, brigands. Okay,

(48:21):
those are the people that come up and they hit you,
they take your money belt, they leave you with like
only one stocking, and it's cold outside and all that
sort of stuff. I think we need to go back
to walled cities. Stop it. I don't think that's nice.
Why did you say Ballentine is like that? Stop that, No,

(48:45):
stop it, that's that's not a nice thing. To say,
it's a beautiful place, but there's no walls around it.
I want to develop a situation where we can all
be because she was saying, as long as you have
a mindset but that's not crime, you can just like
do your thing. So you just you grab a rabbit

(49:07):
from a pot, you do something over here, whatever it is.
As long as you're not criminality in a mental way,
then you're fine. But let's add that extra extra. Let's
add that extra extra, and let's go over and say, okay,
here we go. We're gonna build walled cities wall I'm

(49:27):
talking walt really cool walled cities. Okay, and you get
to go in and you get to come out. And
what I want the most is this is so great. Okay.
I want the ability to go up to the door
and when they say who goes there, and then you say, yes,
it's me. I'm here. I want to get back into
my town, you know, into the town. But then at night,

(49:48):
like late at night, that thing boomed, doors closed, big
wooden doors. You know they used to call them like
a keep. It's a keep they have, you know, all
this kind of stuff. That's what we need. And then
and then you know what, if you don't like living
that way, you just go put yourself someplace else, you know,
you get yourself, you know, some some land, and you

(50:12):
hire you hire some people to kind of keep the watch.
Like it feels very much like this is what's happening.
We are descending into a certain into a certain sort
of a lifestyle that does look like what it was
once upon a time, no doubt. If you were watching
any of the coverage with the King George, King George, King,
King Charles, King George, if that's King George, we got

(50:35):
a problem, h King King Charles. You know, these these guys,
they they they they have all these royal castles, right,
Why do you think they're in the castle? I think
that it's like just we're just doing it for privacy. No,
it's not that they're they're there. People are doing that
for their for their own purposes, you know. I mean,

(50:55):
that's basically all this is. So I think I think
that's how you stop criminals. I think that's how you
stop crime. You know you have there's plenty of I mean, look,
don't don't don't feel like I'm being a mean person.
I'm not being a mean person. How many how many
exclusive enclaves are there where you have to show up
to go visit your family or your friends, and they

(51:17):
they they look at the piece of paper and they say, Okay, yeah,
you're not on the list. Sorry, you can't come in.
Like that's there's there's some that's some kind of nice
that way. I mean that that's that's sort of a
that's sort of a great opportunity all the way around. Now,
there are people who just want to be out there
and be free as a bird. But you know, this
is this is this is something that I'm that I'm

(51:38):
talking about here seven o four five seven oh eleven ten. Okay,
this is the most disturbing story of the entire day.
And it's it's it has nothing to do with murder,
mayhem or anything like that. Okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna
read this. But if you're driving around with the kids
in the car, this is my admonition. It's a singular admonition.

(52:00):
Get ready, Isaac, that's right, get ready, get ready travers
aeah ready uh bright Barton News. Okay, I'm gonna give
you a five count five four three two one. Do
you guys know who Brigitte Macrone is, yes, I do.
Do you know who Brigitte Macrone is or Macrone is? Yeah?

(52:22):
Who is that? That is uh the Prome minute is
Prime minister in France, right, this is uhh yeah yeah
yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, yes, yes. Do you
know what this story is? Uh? Soon, I'm pretty sure
duh know he's talking about over there. Okay, I'm gonna
give another five count five four, three two one. Here goes, kids,

(52:43):
close your ears. French first, Lady Brigitte Macrone will present
photographic evidence to a US court to prove that she's
a woman. Yeah, as part of her defamation in lawsuit
against Candace Owens. So, Candace Owens allegedly allegedly has been

(53:11):
going after her and President it's president by the way,
Manuel Emanuel Macrone, and Candace Owens has been demanding to
see the evidence or not. And so she's going to
submit to the court her pictures of her underneath et cetera.

(53:39):
And well that's what it is. They're under the clothes,
you okay. Speaking to the BBC's Fame under Fire podcast,
the Macron's lawyer in the case, Tom Claire, said miss
missus McCrone had found the claims incredibly upsetting, which it is,

(54:02):
and they were a distraction to the French president. You
remember the video, No, I don't know. I never saw
any of that. This is really way out of my league.
This is not anything I'm interested in. But I'm i
I have to report the things that come down the
pipeline duty bound. I'm not commenting. I don't want to

(54:28):
suggest No, that's not me saying this. I don't want
to suggest that it somehow has thrown him off his game.
But just like anybody who's juggling a career and a
family life as well, when your family's under attack, it
wears on you. Okay, So if this actually is happening
in the way it's happening, Candice own is going to

(54:51):
be in some soup. I mean, that's that's that's gonna
be a problem. That's that's gonna be rough because she's
been she's kind of like it's kind of like Stocky,
isn't It hasn't been. There's a documentary, listen to me.
I'm too busy for a documentary. I'm envisioning the safety

(55:13):
and security of a walled castle. The keep if you
will to keep, yes, I keep it all News Talk
eleven ten that nine three WBT fret Waterble Show. Good
to be with you, all right, So speaking of jewelry,

(55:38):
one of the things that I think is interesting. I
love like I'm just gonna say it. I love history.
I love ancient history. I love all this kind of stuff. Okay,
that that exists out there. This story, this may be
the worst history story that I because of what happened here. Okay,

(56:03):
this is such a bad thing. Egyptian officials reveal sad
and in case of three thousand year old golden pharaoh's
bracelet stolen from a museum. This is a bracelet that

(56:28):
goes back three thousand years ago in Egypt. Dateline Cairo.
Just several days after authorities announced that a rare three
thousand year old golden bracelet had vanished from a restoration

(56:55):
lab at the Egyptian Men's Museum in Cairo, the fate
of the artifact has become clear. It was stolen by
a restoration worker who sold it for less than four
thousand dollars and then was melted down and lost forever.

(57:27):
Isaac is speechless. Egypt's Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities issued
a statement on Tuesday, saying it had referred the case
to public prosecutors and other relevant law enforcement agencies to

(57:48):
take the necessary measures to recover the artifact. Well, that's
not going to happen. The statement noted that some photos
that had circulated online were not actually of the missing bracelet,
which was a golden bracelet adorned with spherical lapis lazulize beads,

(58:11):
belonging to King a Menimope. That's an unfortunate last name.
How are you don't bring him to the party. He's
a Menimobe. He is Mopi. He should be Mopi now
because they took his stuff and melted it down. Photos

(58:36):
that circulated online showed another item that remains on display
at the museum, which was never missing. The ministry said
authorities delayed going public with the disappearance, which came to
light on September the ninth, in an effort to secure
the investigation's progress. It said all Egyptian air, sea and

(58:59):
land cross were put on alert to prevent the artifact
from being smuggled out of the country, but the reality
of the disappearing bracelet was much simpler and no less
sad for Egypt. The Egyptian Ministry of the Interior announced
that the four suspects had been arrested. They said on

(59:20):
September ninth, the bracelet was stolen from a safe inside
the museum's restoration laboratory by a restoration specialist working at
the museum. She allegedly gave it to an acquaintance who
owned a silver shop in Cairo, who then sold it
to the owner of a gold workshop for the equivalent
of thirty eight hundred dollars. That shop owner then sold

(59:43):
it for four thousand to another gold workshop owner. The
Ministry said they melted it down to reshape it into
other gold jewelry. There's the pictures right here. He held
a second and there's nothing kind of like funky about it.
It's just that but it's gold, okay. And these are

(01:00:07):
the these are the these are the crooks that were
part of this old idiots right's of priceless artifacts and
they got four grand, three thousand years old. Along with
the statement, the Ministry of the Interior released security camera
videos showing a shop owner receiving the bracelet, weighing it,
and then paying the suspects. Social media users have have

(01:00:30):
voiced outrage that not only was the bracelet stolen by
a restoration specialist working for the museum, but but that
they didn't even appear to recognize its true value. What
a terrible story. Hold on a minute and think about this.

(01:00:51):
That's a bright side to this, all the.

Speaker 12 (01:01:11):
Old paintings on that to the dude the san dance,
don't you know.

Speaker 1 (01:01:16):
I don't think this is funny. I think the melting
of the people of the of the bracelet is terrible.
Who told you to play that song holy Cow? Walk
like an Egyptian? Jailed like an Egyptian? More likely with
these people stolen gold holy Cow? I mean, look, this
is this is incredible. So they melt it down and

(01:01:42):
they make it into something else they could have stolen
just regular gold and then said, hey, look this used
to be from from a What was this amenotep a
menahep oh was it adrena?

Speaker 3 (01:01:56):
Mope?

Speaker 1 (01:01:57):
Mope? The guy was mope, right, yeah, yeah, was mope?
All right, Well, listen, it's the Brett Winterble Show. Everything
is fair game for the rest of this hour. If
you want to raise an issue, a story, any of
this stuff, you want to go back across the week,
you're more than welcome to be a part of this.
I don't really have anything for you on the Jimmy

(01:02:18):
Kimmel stuff. The Jimmy Kimmel stuff. Apparently he was going
to double down last night, and I guess they stopped
him from doing it. I don't think it's a particularly
compelling idea. I do think what's going to be compelling
this weekend is obviously the memorial service for Charlie Kirk,
and that's going to be something that's incredibly important. And

(01:02:41):
I just want to see the temperature come down a
little bit here. I want to see people understanding that
we do not have to fight twenty four to seven,
three sixty five. You can actually go to a memorial
or view a memorial and understand that, you know, let's
just be decent people, right, Like, let's just be decent people.

(01:03:02):
It bothers me that we can't even in a moment
in time where we should be thinking about our own
potential demise, because all of us will pass away at
some point, and we should we should recognize that this

(01:03:23):
is a very short ride that we get here. Okay,
this is a very very short ride, and we we
shouldn't be fighting over a funeral or any of that
sort of stuff. It's just we are so much better
than this. We are so much better than this. And unfortunately,

(01:03:44):
and you can blame this person or that person, or
you know, however you want to do it, but ultimately
it's up to you how you're going to behave yourself
and how I'm going to behave myself and and all
sort of stuff like that.

Speaker 10 (01:03:58):
Right.

Speaker 1 (01:03:58):
I mean you look at you look at all this stuff,
and you say, Okay, what's what's the upside? Right? What
what is the upside? How how can we how can
we learn?

Speaker 3 (01:04:12):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (01:04:12):
Tolerance? Right? We there for for a long time people
talked about you have to be tolerant, We have to
there has to be tolerance. We have to be tolerant
all of this sort of stuff. And you know, it's
it's sad to see. And I think on either side
you it's it's sad to see. Right, And we sit

(01:04:35):
back and we say, okay, how many how many times
do we get to go around the earth? How many
times are we going to have a birthday? How many
times are we gonna be able to be with our family?
I mean every every single day, the people that you love,
the people that you care about, you should tell them
every day. I mean, for for for real, I mean

(01:04:59):
it's that that's that's the only thing you can do.
Because when somebody passes away, and we've everybody's had somebody
in their life pass away. If you haven't, you're very
lucky as of the stage of the game. But but
we have to remember that there's a point where you say,
you know what, I want to pick up the phone
and call this particular person. Oh I can't because they're

(01:05:23):
they're gone. They they they they never got to hear
what I wanted to make up about, what I wanted
to talk about, what I wanted to It's all that
sort of stuff, this fighting that goes on in Washington,
d C. And I'm being dead serious here, I'm not
I'm not doing stick the stuff that goes on in Washington, DC.

(01:05:46):
You got to understand, there's there's a little bit of
I don't want I don't want to I don't want
you guys to get mad when I say this. There
is a little bit.

Speaker 13 (01:05:59):
Of wrestling kind of stuff that goes on for the cameras.

Speaker 1 (01:06:06):
I have been there. I have seen people who are
at each other's throats when the cameras are on and
then afterwards they're having a cocktail. I know, it's not
pitched battle twenty four to seven. It would never work.
People would eventually assault each other or do things like that.

(01:06:28):
And so the thing is, don't bleed that into your house, right,
don't bleed that content into your house. Love your neighbors,
love your friends. Try to be a peaceful person. That's
the most important stuff that we can do. Do not
steal three thousand year old gold. That's not what you

(01:06:51):
should do. Although I gotta be honest with you, I
think there are probably some scoundrels who have been in
the Congress that would have been very happy to be
a you know, pick up that that gold from from
from Egypt. But look, here's the big win, right, here's
the big win. The Senate has derailed the funding bills

(01:07:12):
in a shutdown stalemate. How about Chuck Schumer with the
big win? Yeah, they were they were trying to do
an extension, just a seven week extension, and Chuck Schumer
and the Democrats crashed it. They just they they destroyed it.
And so now I mean we'll probably have a shutdown,
and you know what, now we can get back to

(01:07:33):
pitched battles and we can call Chuck Schumer and say
why are you such a weirdo? And and why didn't
you go along with this? I mean, this is this
is what we've got. This is what we've got, and
let's be honest. I would take you know, there's a
famous quote, and I don't know if I can do
justice to it because I'm about to do for a break,
but I will share it with you. There is a

(01:07:55):
very very very famous quote from William F. Buckley g
And he had he had a brilliant take. Now it
might not apply today because of the way he was talking,
but I can try to string this thing together for you.
Stick around. I'll give you a little something kind of

(01:08:17):
funny that's kind of clever at the same time that
I that I'm going to steal from William F. Buckley Jr.

Speaker 7 (01:08:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:08:29):
See, we got the good rock and roll for this hour.
That's the good stuff. Yeah. Skid Row seven four five,
seven eleven ten. Good to be with you.

Speaker 5 (01:08:40):
All right.

Speaker 1 (01:08:41):
So I was talking about William F. Buckley Jr. And
I was talking about all the stuff that he that
he does or did. He's passed away by now, but
you know he he had incredible quotes about politics, and
I was I was saying in the last segment, we
should not just marinate in politics twenty four to seven. Okay,
you should get out there, spend time with your family,
go to church, go to the temple, go to go

(01:09:03):
to go to go to any place you want to go,
and just kind of be with your family, do all
that kind of stuff, because life is very short. And
I loved William F. Buckley Junior because when I was
working with Rush, they had a very nice relationship. I
mean they had a really good relationship and Rush would

(01:09:23):
would talk to him and very frequently. So one of
the one of the great quotes from William F. Buckley
Junior was this, and it gets it always gets kind
of mashed up, but this is the actual quote from him.
He's very cynical about politics and you know, people who

(01:09:43):
are in charge and things like that. So this is
the very famous quote that he that he carried, and
it was I'd rather entrust the government of the United
States to the first four hundred people listed in the
Boston telephone directory, then to the faculty of Harvard University,

(01:10:04):
meaning common sense, right, it's a common sense people. Now
obviously today Boston is a very liberal place. It's become
a a you know, just a nightmare in terms of
the way they do their politics now. But when you
think about all these sorts of things, right, there are
great arguments that can be made, great arguments that could

(01:10:27):
be made, Like, here's another one it is, and then
I'm gonna go to and then I'm gonna go to
this call with Matt. The best defense against a usurpatory
government is an assertive citizenry. That is an amazing quote, right,
The best defense against a usurpatory government is an assertive citizenry.

(01:10:53):
Meaning if they're gonna try to take the power from you,
the way you get even with those scoundrels is to
be assertive in your rights. That that sort of stuff
has gone away, because look, you can have high falutin people,
you can have middle sort of people, and then you

(01:11:14):
can have the rabble. The rabble is interesting, But the
policies you want made by the middle, the middle of
the of the line going up to the top of
the line. You don't want to be governed by mobs.
Mobs are the worst possible thing. Matt, Welcome to the program.
What's on your mind, Hey, Brett Friday, Man, thanks man,

(01:11:35):
thanks for calling in.

Speaker 10 (01:11:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:11:37):
That uh, that Buckley quote that reminds me of my
dad had a way of saying that, but it was
a little different. He said, you could just randomly pick
people at a grocery store to.

Speaker 10 (01:11:46):
Run the government.

Speaker 1 (01:11:46):
That's about right.

Speaker 6 (01:11:47):
Probably end up with yeah. Anyway. The reason I called
was my Friday is I get off work early, sure
about three o'clock. So by the time I get home,
I get I come home. I turned on the.

Speaker 10 (01:12:00):
Britt Warnable Show.

Speaker 1 (01:12:01):
Yes, sir, I crack open a cold one.

Speaker 6 (01:12:03):
I let the dogs out and throw the tennis ball
and everything's great. Well, today I sat down and decided
I was gonna play my phone and read the news.
And you know what catastrophe happened today?

Speaker 1 (01:12:14):
A big one day.

Speaker 6 (01:12:15):
Well, and behold, yeah, Putin's flying not drums anymore into
NATO airspace. He's flying fighter jets into NATO.

Speaker 1 (01:12:25):
Yes, that is true. That is true.

Speaker 6 (01:12:27):
Now. The reason I called is because I wanted to
get your take on this. This is not an accident. No,
would you agree here?

Speaker 7 (01:12:35):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:12:35):
No, no, I agree absolutely, it's not an accident.

Speaker 6 (01:12:38):
So he's testing NATO, Yes.

Speaker 1 (01:12:40):
He is, and he has been testing them, you know,
for forout the entirety of this, this this involves, this
is a very interesting dynamic because this involved this involves Estonia. Okay,
Now Estonia, for people who are familiar or not familiar,

(01:13:01):
Estonia is right up against Russia, right, You've got you've
got Russian territory right there. And and so you know, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania,
all of those those were all once Soviet satellites.

Speaker 6 (01:13:18):
Okay, okay, it used to be part of the Soviet.

Speaker 1 (01:13:21):
Really, yes, and no, okay, I mean they were independent.
They were independent people, but they were getting manhandled and
all this sort of thing. They would do it all
the time, right back in the old days. So what
happened is they sent in four nasty fighter jets. They
were mid thirty ones. And so Estonia has now requested

(01:13:43):
a NATO article for consultation because they had their territory
violated by the Russians. Okay. So the interesting part of
this is this just goes to show you how deep
the relationships are with the with the UH with the

(01:14:05):
NATO folks. So this is how it played out. Estonia's
defense forces said the MiG thirty ones were intercepted on
Friday morning by not the Estonia Defense Forces, but by
Italian F thirty five fighter jets based in Amari in Estonia.

(01:14:28):
So the Italians ran the Russians off. They because of
what they're gonna do is they're gonna come in and
they're gonna poke, right, and they're gonna say, hey, how
far can we get in? How far can we get in?
And so the Italians, the Italians are you know, they're
they're part of our alliance. And so they went in
there and they ran them off. But now we still

(01:14:49):
have a problem because once they start pulling this stuff,
they're gonna pull it again and again and again. And
I think I think that Donald Trump's got to pick
gotta He's got to get into this and and make
an unequivocal, you know, comment about how this has to be.
Because as these people are starting to look at it,

(01:15:11):
they're saying, look, these are not accidents, this is none
of that. They keep poking and poking and poking. At
some point, the way you send the message is what
you saw in the movie Top Gun. You splash, just
splash the Russian I mean splashing. You're over. They're over.
They're over. Sovereign territory. Shoot him down. And that's the
message I mean.

Speaker 6 (01:15:32):
And the White House has been surprisingly quiet.

Speaker 1 (01:15:36):
About this, Yes they have. Well, he just got back
from you know, he just got back from the UK. Uh.
He did go fairly aggressive yesterday talking about not wanting
the Europeans to sell to buy energy from the from
the Russians. But the stupid Europeans they still buy stuff
from the Russians. Like, why the heck would you do that?

(01:15:57):
You know, it's like US buying It's like US buying
energy from from Japan during World War two, or or
or the Nazis during World War two? Why would we
buy their stuff? So, yeah, I'm gonna I am. I
do have an eye on it, and I did. It
did strike me, and I really hope that they Sometimes
you just got to punch a bully in the mouth.

Speaker 6 (01:16:18):
Hey, hey, I know you pressed for a break here.
So I'll just ask your question, this last question real quick,
and then I'll take your comments off the air. Do
you think NATO has the peace or the backfall yes
to do something about this or is this just some
kind of whatever? But anyway, great shows, Thank.

Speaker 1 (01:16:34):
You very much, Thank thank you. Matt absolutely yeah, yeah,
we do. We have to because we have to. You can't.
We can't play games seven oh four five seven zero,

(01:17:00):
Zo eleven ten Brett Widbull Show. Good to be with you.
Taking a look at some of the other stories that
are out there. We did talk about the somebody was asking,
did you talk about the big blob? Yes, we talked
about the big blob. The big Blob is a factor.
I mean, it's just this one of those things. All right. Uh,

(01:17:22):
we got a problem, Isaac, We got a problem. This
is this is not like, this is not like laughter time.
This is not like joking around time. This is something
that we've talked about a number of times. During this
period where we are looking at these stories, the number
of cases of flesh eating bacterial infections in Central Florida

(01:17:47):
jumps to twenty eight why's everything eating the flesh? I
don't understand it it according to the Florida Department of Health,
the FIDEAU, that's what it is, FDA, the fd Oh
that's a great name. No, it's not a fedora. According

(01:18:11):
to the Florida Department of Health data, as of September eighteenth,
three new cases of you know it, say it with me.
The Vibrio vulnificus vulnificusp, a flesh eating bacterium, has now

(01:18:33):
been reported in Citrus, Collier, and Lee Counties in Florida.
What even is a Collier? Collier is a place. Oh,
it's a place. It's a it's a it's a county.
It's a county. Okay. Florida has reported twenty eight cases

(01:18:54):
of Vibrio vulnificus, the bacterium which thrives in warm water
brackish water, and it's been connected to five deaths this year.
We told him to stay out of the warm water. Okay, See,
this is what happens. This is what happens. Okay, you
go in that warm water. That is just that is eh,

(01:19:18):
cruising for a breeze. First of all, hold on a second,

(01:19:39):
in a bathtub in my house, maybe a hot tub. No,

of hot water. My point of my point of this
is it's like, how is it even refreshing? How is
it even refreshing to go and be in the ville aokus?

(01:20:01):
The thing not the villa fankus. But I mean I'm

swim in the warm salt water, or you want to
like go be refreshed up in the mountains bush. You
don't want to swim in cold water?

Speaker 3 (01:20:23):

sit there's no snakes there. You go out there, when
you go in swimming cold cold water like that, there's

(01:21:20):

there is?

Speaker 6 (01:21:22):
Though?

Speaker 1 (01:21:22):
What it's not icy there? Well it is, it is
well sometimes sometimes. But here's the thing. I swimming in
like this ich water, I'm not I can't do it
because it's you've got snakes and you got all kinds
of What about the brackish water. I don't brackish is

(01:21:43):

I feel like I gotta go back to my apartment
or back to my you know, the hotel or whatever,
and then I gotta go and I gotta rinse it
and repeat it. I don't. I don't like it. Just
give me listen, Okay, if I had to go in
that warm water, I am coming out and I am

(01:22:06):
I'm bleaching me. That's way worse than all of it.
That's what I'm saying though, because I don't want to
get Why would I want to get any of that stuff?
Like that's really scary stuff. Okay, fine, whistle past the graveyard.
I mean it's really like I don't know, Like, and
then are you gonna eat the fish that's in that stuff?

shellfish in a pot just cooked for like four days.
I'm not a big shell boiling for four days till
let's just let it alone, know, I mean, that's that's it.
The swimming in the warm water is very frightening me.
I mean, it's just it's not the kind of thing
you want. And and and then you don't want to
have to tell people. It's kind of embarrassing. Tell me

(01:23:11):
you have flesh eating yes, okay, potentially, but it's like
but it's like the no, because here's the problem. You
say to somebody about swimming in warm water like that,
and then what happens? So something happens to you. Everybody
you run into is gonna say, what are you doing
swimming in warm water? You should swim in refreshing cold water.

areas where they have the creeks and rivers to do tubing. Yes,

Speaker 6 (01:27:01):
And that's a little No, it's salt water.

Speaker 1 (01:27:08):
Eighty five degrees salt water? No? What am I doing?
What am I trying to do it? It's like I
gotta rinse my mouth out with so because I went
to the dentist or something. I love our collars. Thanks Mike,
you're the best man. Have a great weekend. That's like
I'm doing it. But it's like I'm rinsing. Oh, hold

(01:27:28):
on there again, let me get some get this all enough?
Oh no, it's so delicious. This is this turned into
a full fledged mutiny here. It is a mutiny because
everybody's wrong. I'm right. I know that there is somebody
out there who's gonna co sign this, but it's gonna
be too late because it'll be Jensen's show at that
point and they will not tell me about it. So

(01:27:49):
you know what I'm gonna give you. Here's what I'm
gonna give you. You ready for this? Yeah? Yes, you
deserve this. Okay, this is a good one and Earth
and Earth like exo planet could be habitable and astronomers
may know soon. Yes, they're looking. Yes, yes, you guys

(01:28:11):
love the space, you have the hot water, you love
all that kind of stuff. I got something again. You
want hot water. I'm gonna give you hot water.

Speaker 6 (01:28:19):
Ye.

Speaker 1 (01:28:20):
I'll be up there in the mountains with the walls. No, never,
never me. Absolutely, he's running. He's running for a third term,
as really gets. If that guy, if that guy gets
in there, who drugged out maniacs and homeless people not
that no. Astronomers might be close to confirming the presence

(01:28:42):
of an earth like atmosphere on an exo planet for
the first time if more detailed analyzes verify preliminary observations
from the James Webb space telescope. I gotta tell you,
I kind of like this, the James Webb thing here.
I swear they're gonna look so far back that there's

(01:29:03):
gonna be somebody like waving like they're gonna be waving,
and you know what they're gonna do. They're gonna zoom in.
They're gonna zoom in on the guy and they're just
gonna go into the super zoom and he's gonna have
on his hand, he's gonna have on his hand. Don't
swim in warm water. So the planet is part of

(01:29:24):
a planetary system about forty light years away from the
Earth called trappist One. Oh, because it's Belgian. Okay, I
got it. It's named after the beer. So they're saying
that it might be able for us to get out
there and go do that kind of thing. Now, I
would I think that would be a fascinating thing. I

(01:29:46):
think it would be unbelievable, especially because I mean it
might be a little beastie if you ask me. But
I mean, you know, the thing is kind of interesting
is the fact that it's planetary and and so as
a planetary system, it's alien. It's as alien as it gets. Now,

(01:30:06):
does that mean there's aliens there? Probably not, I'm not.
The star is very very small. It's the size of Jupiter.
That's pretty big, and it has at least seven rocky
planets orbiting around it. Three of those are in what

(01:30:26):
we call the habitable zone. How do you know. You
haven't gone over there yet. You don't know what's over there.
You don't know what kind of a thing is gonna
swallow you up. You can't even do this. This is
just why are we doing? We still got the other
thing we haven't even got the other thing that hasn't
even come here yet, that that thing is gonna be something,

(01:30:49):
and that yes, you are, you are why it's not
gonna be hot, it's not gonna be cold. It could
be yeah, probably could. That's the truth. You got that
one right. Well, listen, I think we've done everything we
can do. Here's what I want you to do over
the weekend. I want you to spend time with your
loved ones. If you don't feel like spending time with

(01:31:11):
the with your loved ones, find other people to love.

to be with you guys here this week. It was
a rough week, but the world, the world is still here.
And hug the people you love and I'll be back
with you on Monday. Lord Willing News Talk eleven ten.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
