Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Make sure

Much to get to today. We had a very disconcerting
speech from President Biden after a horrific terror attack that
killed a one hundred and seventy people, thirteen US military members.
(00:26):
Biden trying to calm the country. I don't think he
did a good job. Did this White House give a
kill list to the Taliban? We'll dive into that. Plus
the Supreme Court strikes down the unconstitutional eviction moratorium finally,
and Lieutenant Bird is the name of the fellow who
(00:47):
shot Ashley Babbitt, the member of Capitol Hill Police. He
gave an interview and we will talk about what he
said there so as you can tell, and then we'll
get some roll call. We have a very busy show
today for sure. But you know Wall Street has been

to get you out? It matters? Look? I know of
no conflict as a student of history. No conflict where
(02:15):
when a war was ending, one side was able to
guarantee that everyone they wanted to be extracted from that
country would get out and think about it, folks, make
it's important. I know American people get this and they're
gut They're going to leave people behind. The battlefield that's
(02:35):
going to happen is at this point inevitable. Hopefully no Americans,
but not even sure that's the case. Certainly we'll leave SIV,
which is the equivalent of a green card. It's a
green card category. These are people that we have given
green cards to in return for service the United States.
This is through the legal immigration system, same way. I
(02:59):
know many of you listen to or from families that
are legal immigrants, or maybe you're a legal immigrant yourself.
SIVs are legal immigrants to the United States. We're going
to leave a lot of them behind, for sure, including
some who were interpreters. There are others who were working
for contractors and doing other more day to day jobs,
(03:20):
but there were military embedded interpreters. There are going to
be some who are left behind. The Biden administration is
just telling you this is going to happen, and we've
known this for days now. We had that horrific mass
casualty attack yesterday double suicide bombing. I talked about how
this is the biggest soft target you could possibly find,
congregation of thousands of people up against gates with only
(03:45):
Taliban checkpoints around them to quote protect them, and the
US military then processing them as they try to get
into an actual interior security perimeter. And it went very tragedy,
horrifically wrong yesterday. But we can't say that it's surprising.
(04:06):
Of course, this was what isis k isis chorus on
or whatever faction. This is how much can we really
put in the intelligence community and the military intelligence apparatus.
I know that's one of the same, But how much
can we really put in their analysis of who did this?
I mean, when Joe Biden was saying yesterday that they're
(04:28):
going to go after they're gonna find justice against those
who did this, does anyone take that seriously? I mean,
how is that going? First of all, even if we
flew some drones in the sky and blew up the
people that were behind the plotting of these attacks, that
those who were involved in them, what would that change
(04:49):
exactly for the security situation the ground. Sure, it would
be justice in the sense that we would have retribution
against those involved in the suicide attack, which is good,
But would it anybody who is currently on the ground
and cobbles safer. It wouldn't change anything. No, And we
sit here today as I'm speaking to you, and all
I can think is, why wouldn't isis k if that
(05:09):
is in fact who's responsible do this again, why wouldn't they?
They are Jihatat psychopaths. There's still a lot of people
who are going to be pressed up against those gates.
There's going to be mobs forming of people that are
trying to get out, and what can we really do
about it? Maybe the Taliband didn't order the hit, but
(05:30):
maybe they just had a few of their members turn
a blind eye. We don't know what's going on with
those checks. These are Taliban checkpoints. These are terrorists who
engage in savage behavior, who will abuse sexually children and
call them wives. We know that's been happening with Taliban
(05:50):
fighters who will mutilate and execute women for minor offenses
against their so called Shariah in interpretation, right, that's who's
matting the checkpoints. And we have Afghans crowding in to
try to get out, and what are we looking for?
(06:11):
Now some sense from the Biden administration that they have
a handle on this, that they'll be able to stop this,
and Biden is telling us that there will be retribution
here you go fourteen. To those who carried out this attack,
(06:31):
as well as anyone who wishes America harm, know this,
we will not forgive. We will not forget. We will
hunt you down and make you pay. I'll defend our
interests in our people with every measure at my command.
What's that going to mean? What does he have at
(06:53):
as command? Right now? We're just trying to hold on
to our last little piece of real estate and evacuate
all of our people. Does anyone really think that we
have the kind of intelligence networks on the ground right now?
I can tell you we don't. Where we'd be able
to find out who is involved in the plotting and
planning of that mass casualty suicide bombing attack yesterday, No way,
(07:14):
no way. We can't tell you if it was Hakani
network allied with isis K or a faction of the
Taliban aligned with ISIS, or the Kadi's working with the Taliban,
or who knows. We have no real sense of what's
going on in this country. I think that's pretty clear.
Considering that the Afghan army folded in eleven days, and
(07:35):
we thought it would at least last six months. You
could say, oh, but we all thought yeah. But I'm
not sitting there with a eight hundred billion dollars Pentagon
budget at my disposal, and spy satellites and intelligence agencies
and all the things that we have to try to
get a sense of what's really going on. I mean,
in many ways, this is the most stunning intelligence failure
(07:57):
certainly since nine to eleven. Nothing like this, nothing of
this scale. Here we are, I have some of you
will pick up. There's some other things I'm sure we
could throw in the mix too. Someone brought up Libya
as a foreign policy blunder, but that didn't put thousands
and thousands of Americans in harm's way. It did end
(08:19):
up with US losing four Americans in Benghazi, so we've
already lost thirteen in this debacle in Afghanistan. But then
there's the I think the moment of shock that reverberated
through much of the country yesterday when Biden went up.
He was supposed to make everybody feel better, and here
(08:42):
is how he approaches things. Play fifteen ladies and gentlemen
gave me a list here. The first person I was
instructed to call on was Kelly o'donald NBC. Why is
why I have a list of people to call them?
(09:03):
It's all so scripted, right, It all just feels so
stage managed and phony. But how could it not. Joe
Biden was up there a kind of ashostion, Yo, sure,
fading almost like the way America's standing in the world
(09:25):
is fading. It was not confidence inspiring yesterday. The commander
in chief was not making everybody feel like he's on it,
He's got this. I think, how much worse could this
really go for the Biden administration at this point? And
then you think, oh my gosh, it absolutely could be worse,
could be much worse. We still have days to go here.
(09:46):
We still have at least hundreds of Americans who have
to get out of the country at least as of
last count, and thousands and thousands of SIV holders who
are supposed to get out of the country. But you
know what the biggest single concern the Biden administration has
right now is perception of their capability. How does this
(10:08):
affect them politically? That matters more than anything else, that
matters more than the situation on the ground in Afghanistan
for the Biden team, I can tell you that much.
Here he is going back and forth with Peter doocey seventeen.
I bear responsibility for fundamentally all that's happened of late.
But here's the deal. You know as well as I do,
that a former president made a deal with the Tally
(10:31):
Bond if he would get all American forces out of
Afghanistan by May one. In return, he was given a
commitment if the Tally Bond would continue to attack others,
but would not attack any American forces. Remember that, I'm
being serious now, I'm asking you a question because before no, no, no,
(10:54):
wait a minute, I'm asking you a question. It is
that accurate the best of your note. I think they
have an issue, that people are like to get hurt.
Some as we've seen, we've gotten killed, and that it
is messy fighting with Peter Doocy over how you know,
(11:19):
Really it's Trump's fault. You got to remember that in
this whole process, it's Trump's fault. M I thought Joe
Biden was the President of the United States. I thought
we had all fight. In fact, if you didn't say
Joe Biden was the president. Oh, and he won and
it was the cleanest election ever. No problems, no rule changes,
(11:39):
no violations to state constitutions, no fraud, no nothing right
unless you say that you're a bad per, you're an insurrectionist.
So they were very insistent that Joe Biden was really
the president. Right, we know that. So then isn't Joe
Biden responsible? What am I missing here? What? What part
(12:00):
of this? Where did I not get the memo? M
It's still President Trump's fault. As this disaster continues to
unfold in Afghanistan, stunning the Tunnel to Towers Foundation helps
us keep our commitment to never forget. This year, the
foundation is honoring gold star and fallen first responder families
with young children and catastrophically injured veterans and first responders
(12:23):
with two hundred mortgage free homes. Chairman and CEO Frank
Siller's paying tribute to the fallen by walking from the
Pentagon to Shanksville and on to Ground zero, more than
five hundred miles through six states and forty two days.
The month of August through nine to eleven. Towers of
Light are to shine at the Pentagon and Shanks for
memorials in remembrance and the names of those we lost
to nine eleven related illnesses are being read allowed at
(12:44):
a ceremony on September twelfth, on Veterans Day, the names
of those we lost the War on Terror will also
be sett aloud. Do good and help America to never forget.
Donate eleven dollars a month to Tunnel to Towers at
t twot dot org. That's t the number two t
org t twot dot org. So the officer, Lieutenant Bird,
(13:07):
who shot Ashley Babbitt in the neck, spoke out about this.
He had an interview with Lester Holt and here's what
he says about why no remember just this was on
January sixth thirty five year old female about one hundred
and what forty pounds, Ashley Babbitt is trying to come
(13:30):
through a locked door and she's breaking through the glass
and this Lieutenant Bird of Capitol Hill Police pulled his gun.
He has gun pointed at her for quite some time
and just shot her in the neck and killed her.
I didn't I don't know if if he actually said, well,
(13:51):
you know what, let's let's let him explain how he
views that she was a threat Played twenty one. I
had been yelling and screaming as loud as I was,
please stop, get back, get back, stop. We had a
weapon strolling. We see your arm out there for a
considerable amount of time. Were you wavering? I was taking
(14:11):
a tactical stance. You're ultimately hoping that your commands will
be complied with, and unfortunately they were not. What did
you think this individual was doing? Then? She was posing
a threat to United States House of Representatives. Posing a
threat to the United States House of Representatives. If this woman,
(14:34):
I'm just wondering, Let's let's listen to what he says
here for a moment, he's saying she poses a threat.
Let's let's unpack this together. There were other people in
that in that hallway too. There were other people that
were banging on that door. What if he took his
tactical stance, shot Ashley Babbitt in the neck and then
took two steps forward and just started firing into the crowd,
(14:57):
just started shooting at people. Would that be just now?
Ask yourself, why wouldn't that be justified? Right? If Ashley
Babbitt at that door, who had not actually attacked a
human being, but she had broken property. If she can
be shot and killed, why can't all the people around
(15:17):
her who were also banging on the door. Would it
be okay for Lieutenant Bird to pull his service weapon?
Which it is true? Also the rumors about how he
left it in a bathroom and was disciplined for that,
that was true. He said that in the interview. But
why couldn't he then just open fire on everybody in
(15:39):
that hallway? It seems to me that the use of
force justification here is completely in compliance with that. You know,
people are, people are being loud, there's a riot going on,
They're banging on a door. There's no actual members of
Congress nearby. No one has actually been physically attacked, yet
(16:02):
there's still a door separating Why didn't the officer run
and give at least a shove to Ashley Babbitt? Remember,
through a locked door. Folks just wondering why not, Oh,
shot through the neck, killed right there? M this is
(16:24):
this is lawful. This does tremendous damage, tremendous damage to
our sense of equal justice. Because I can tell you this,
there are plenty of times where officers have been assaulted
physically by people from BLM protests. And if this were
a BLM protester, and specifically, if this were a black
(16:46):
BLM protester who was rushing a police officer who pulled
his weapon and shot that BLM protester in the neck,
we all understand that it would be a national tragedy.
There would be more murals of that individual all over
the country, at least in major cities, and they would
be telling us that this was horrific police brutality, the
(17:10):
worst kinds of violence. No, Instead, Michael Bird, Lieutenant Michael
Bird is telling everybody that he saved countless lives. Play
twenty two according to law, it does not. I know,
based on my training and my policy, what I did
was appropriate. Have you continued to question your actions that day?
(17:33):
I knew that day. I followed my training, and I
spent countless years preparing for such a moment. You ultimately
hope that moment never occurs, but you prepare as best
you can. I know that day I saved countless lives.
Saved countless lives? Really? Really? Huh? Because who was killed
(18:00):
that day? Only Ashley Babbitt? I have to say, was
there anyone else who was killed that day. Oh, they
told us that there was an officer who's beaten to
death with a fire extinguisher. That was what the reporting
was from many many news outlets. Turn out that was
not true. That was just that was a lie. That
was a lie. Okay, So how exactly did he save
(18:25):
all these lives? Well, what did he do that saved life?
He took a life for sure. Ashley Babbitt was gonna
what rush him and beat him to death? Is that? What?
Is that what he's suggesting? Somehow these rioters, they didn't
do that anywhere else, but in this case, that's what
was going to happen. Here's Ashley Babbott's husband on that
(18:48):
Lieutenant Bird interview played twenty four pissed off. I mean,
I've only heard a couple of clips so far, Tucker.
At this point, it's not air until seven o'clock out here.
I read the full transcrip up it. I had not
heard that one clip that you just played. My agitation
levels actually going through the roof right now where he
admitted he didn't really care if she was armed or not.
(19:11):
We're unarmed or not. He didn't he didn't care. So yeah,
we're we're going down a bad rabbit hole right now.
And I don't even want to hear him talk about
how he's getting death threats and he's scared. I've been
getting death threats since January seventh, two, three, five, ten
a day, you know. And all I did on January
sixth was to become a widower. So you're gonna have
(19:33):
to suck it up, butt and take it. It's heartbreaking
to hear this man who lost his wife talking about
the situation. But NBC gave a platform to elevate the
man who shot Ashley Babbitt's all right, shot this man's wife,
(19:54):
Ashley Babbitt. He elevated him like he's a hero. That's
what they've done. He's a hero. This is the way
they set up this interview. Good job shooting that woman
in the neck. Lesser Holt suggests had to do it
to save lives. Really, I don't think so. Two different
(20:18):
centers of justice in this country, one for whom the
elites believe need to be protected and elevated, and one
for those of us who questioned why the elites have
so much power and control. And then we have the
eviction moratorium which got shut down. Finally, just say six
(20:38):
three decisions Supreme Court. The fact that there are three
judges on the Supreme Court who did not go along
with this just goes to show you what a bunch
of Marxist loons they are right, that that Bryer, Sodamayor
and Kagan would in this case say, yeah, you know what,
the government can just by by fiat, by executive order,
(21:01):
decide that your property is no longer yours. I mean,
this is madness. This is sheer authoritarian overreach in its
purest form. And three Supreme Court justices look, yeah, but
we like it. There's a pandemic. Yeah, now we're realizing
there's going to be a pandemic forever. Right, It's going
to become endemic. COVID's going to be out there forever.
(21:24):
People are starting to finally admit that. Happy to see though,
that at least it got struck down. Now people can
evict those who have refused to pay rent for a
very long time. Very pleased of course by this turn
of events. It's the way it should be. And it
is a reminder though that the left will they will
(21:45):
abuse the law, that will use the law in whatever
ways they see fit for their own power. And their
Supreme Court justices always deliver for them on whatever it
may be. Let's get into some roll call. Here we go.
First up, T J. Buck, I gotta call you out.
It sounded like the end of your podcast Monday. You
(22:06):
jumped off the DeSantis twenty twenty four train and onto
the Trump twenty twenty four train. You were pretty solid
DeSantis supporter for a bit there. What happened? Do you
know something about Desantists and or Trump? The rest of
us don't. Maybe you and your buddy Matt Walsh ought
to do a crossover episode where you debate Desantist versus
Trump for twenty twenty four. Personally, I'm still into Santist
camp because of Trump's age, but I'd like to hear
(22:28):
some honest debate about who'd make for a better president
of the two potential candidates, and I think you and
Matt present the arguments in very respectful ways. First of all,
a lot of respect for Matt Walsh. Smart guy, does
very good work. I'm totally I think DeSantis is fantastic.
I think DeSantis has done a phenomenal job as the
governor of Florida. I think that he'd be a great
(22:50):
presidential candidate. I also think that Donald Trump is clearly
very formidable still in the political arena, and I think
that he would give us four more great years if
he could get it. So, I mean, you're asking me,
it's kind of like, who do I want my champion
to be? The Hulk or the Thing? Well, actually produce
(23:11):
a mark. If you're in a bar fight, do you
want the Hulk or the Thing to be at your
bed to have your side? The Hulk? Really? Of course?
Is he stronger than the Thing? Yes, he is. He's
the strongest superhero there is stronger than Thor. I mean,
I guess it's just brewed strength. That would be Hulk.
Thor is the sneaky strength that you don't expect, all right,
(23:33):
Thor versus iron Man bar fight producer Mark, I guess
you have to take Thor because iron Man's not really
a superhero. He just has all the technology. Yeah, technically. Also,
I think Thor is a god, right, which is kind
of cool. Yes, Like I feel like that would help
you get some phone numbers at a bar and doesn't
control Actually I'm actually a god. Yeah, you know what
(23:54):
I mean? Thanks from Asgard. It's really cool. Yeah, yeah, Hey, baby,
you come up to Asgard for some why and coolers.
An iron man is rich, so good call. And then
his house in Malibu is very fancy from the movies.
I do remember that, so but TJ to what you're
asking here, Uh, I still think. I still think DeSantis
is great. I think DeSantis does an excellent job. So
(24:17):
all all about it. Um, I would be very happy
if he ran. I'd support him, you know. And look,
I also we also need to hold politicians accountable and
and ask them questions about what they're doing and everything else.
I never want to make it seem like, oh, I'm
just gonna I'm I'm working for the DeSantis campaign. But
I think he's I think he's great, and I support him.
(24:38):
I'd support Trump, and I think they're gonna work it out.
They're not going to run against each other. So Trump
either passes the torch or he's got one more. He's
got one more go in him, and I'm all, I'm
all for it. Sarah Buck. But ifan of yours for
a number of years love the work you do in
the message you preach, a question for you. Since Joe
Biden is verifiably unfit cognitively and we can all see it.
(24:58):
Doesn't Kamela some responsibility for this mess in Afghanistan? She
says she was the last one of the Roman Biden
decided to pull out, and then she conveniently leaves the country.
That's like setting the drunk man up behind the wheel,
buckling him in and then fleeing the scene. She has
completely abandoned her post. Is she not partially to blame
for this fiasco? Recall them all? Well, interesting Kamala. First
(25:25):
of all, there's not a recall mechanism for the for
the presidency, Just to be clear, Sarah. But I hear
what you're saying. I don't know how much Kamala is
involved in any of this decision making. I think Kamala
is largely involved in this administration for optics purposes. I
do not think anybody believes that she has a particular
area of company competency. I don't think anybody really believes
(25:48):
that Kamala is endowed with leadership qualities or strategic thinking
at a level where they really care what she thinks
in thisistration. But you raise an interesting point, kas Kamala
is tied to this administration and so at some level
(26:10):
she must be involved in some of the planning and
therefore some of the blame for what's going on Afghanistan.
But it'd be tough to get to the bottom of
that without actually having a press corps that would push
for information, and trust me, they don't want to get
into that. Ken. Hey, Buck, I was very concerned there'll
be no one to take over after Russia's death, but
then I happened to hear your show and thought he
is the guy. Very glad you and Clay got the nod.
(26:32):
You're doing a great job. Thanks Buck Well, Thank you, Ken.
I really appreciate that very much and it was great.
That's where I'm trying to do, trying to do the
best show I can every day and doing the best
podcast I can every day too, which is why I'm
hoping you will share the podcast. Let's see here, Maria
(26:54):
Buck You're my hero and I love you Clay as well.
Best big show podcast so far, very powerful. I am
still crying. Thank you so much for stepping up with
the plan and committing to help the soldier bring his
interpreter and family out of Afghanistan. In the end, all
we have is our integrity and our word. I hope
and pray you are successfulness mission again. Thank you, Maria,
thank you. It really means a lot, and I appreciate
(27:15):
the support and client. I are doing the best show
Weeken every day, and I of course get to do
this show for all of you, which I really enjoy
as well. I just get to have a direct conversation
with you, and it's a lot of fun. Darren, Hi Buck,
I appreciate the work you're doing in support of our
great country or bringing the truth for it on those
destroying this country. I would grasonally greatly appreciate your feedback.
(27:35):
My son recently graduated from university and has an interest
in a job that would give them the opportunity to
support the USA, possibly the CIA, or some national or
international agency. God blessed Shields High Apply online, Darren, it's
all That's where it all happens, believe or not. You
apply online, you get it going. And I mean, I'm
out of the game now so long that I don't
(27:56):
even know what the official process is these days. I
mean it's been I haven't been the intelligence community in
over ten years now, so i'd have but I do
know that they take online applications for a lot of
important government jobs, and Darren, I'd say, just tell your
son not to get frustrated by the fact that there
will be Not only is there bureaucracy once you start
(28:18):
working for the federal government, but there's a lot of
bureaucracy that you have to go through to even get
a job in the federal government. So that's where that is.
Chris hey Buck, active duty marine lawyer here stationed overseas.
I woke up this morning at three hundred messages about
what happened in Kabble. I'm just angry. Obviously, I'm a
(28:41):
marine lawyer, not some battle hardened warrior. I'll likely never
see a battlefield in my life. I'm angry because the dishonesty,
and because this president and the top officials treat us
as idiots, as if we can't see reality, as if
we'll just lap up their garbage without question. The inability
to admit mistakes or fault or even the slightest bit
of potential for improvement is maddening. I have no spect
for these people. I'd like to think if they showed
(29:01):
up here, I'd be tempted to spit on their feet
as they walked by. The whole situation Afghanistan still feels
pretty far removed from me. My day to day life
isn't going to change. I still have my job to do,
but I must say it's hard to find joy in
work when this wholly unnecessary death happens in my organization,
even a half a world away. Rest easy, Devil Dogs Center, Fidelis, Chris,
(29:24):
thank you for writing in and I look, I think
a lot of them we're all angry about what happened
in Cobble and just the incompetence of the administration on display,
and what a mess this whole thing is. And it
did not have to be this way. I think that
much is quite clear, and I'm with you. I'm praying
for the families of those lost, and for our marines
and every member of the armed forces that has downranged
(29:47):
right now in Afghanistan doing a job that puts them
in harm's way and serving their country and showing tremendous
bravery in the process. Oh, I'm gonna have to tell
you to have a great weekend coming up here, folks. Oh,
let'scheck up with our buddy producer Mark for a second
to see what his weekend plans are. What's going on
(30:08):
producing Mark? Anything fun, just more unpacking and just getting
things said, we're pretty much done, but you know now
we gotta do things like go to the container's store
and you know, organized stuff to that part of the
house buying process. How is how is the new place?
You like it? Yeah? We like it. It's getting more
and more like a home every weekend when we have
(30:28):
a chance to work on it. Nice. Nice. Do you
have some plants? I feel like that's always an adulting thing,
you know, you all of a sudden you get plants
that you have to take care of. I've thought about
getting some plants. We have a nice window sill right
by the kitchen sink that would be a cool place
to put them, So I've thought about it. Yeah, there
we go. That's what I'm talking about. Maybe you get
some plants. It'll be the first thing I've had to
(30:50):
keep alive in a very long time. What about a
pet that you could have in like a terrarium or
some kind of enclosure. Are you allowed to do that?
I know you said no dogs or cats. Yeah, pretty much,
no animals. I'm sure I could get away like a
fish or something. But what do I want to fish for?
I've always wondered if a lizard can bond with a person,
like if you have a lizard pet. You know, if
(31:11):
you have a gecko or something and one of those
lit terrariums, does the gecko start to like you after
a while? I feel like their brains are too small
so they can't actually do that. But and they're not cute. Well,
what'll I want that in my house? And what if
it gets loose? Geckos aren't bad. Yeah, no, I wouldn't.
I wouldn't want to have like a spitting cobra as
a pet. I'm always I'm always kind of astonished when
when you see one of the stories like man loses
(31:32):
like pet king cobra in apartment, like looking forward, it's like,
I don't think that's a good idea as a pet.
I'm just gonna put that out there. Yeah, And why
would you want to gecko? Those little lizards? They have
them all over Florida. They enter people's houses without permission.
And I'm still hoping to get to the Ted Lasso
show this weekend. Although I saw I think it was
actually Matt Walsh bringing him up again on the show,
(31:53):
who said that he did not find it funny. Poor opinion. Yeah,
you're not with him on that one. I mean almost everybody.
I think Matt Walsh was the first person I've heard
that doesn't like Ted Lazo. I think he was the
first one that I saw that that was very, very
opposed to it. But I'll off to check it out
myself and see and see what's what. But can you
believe that it's almost the end of the summer, Producer Bark,
(32:14):
I can't believe it, only two summer weekends left. It's crazy.
It feels like it's flown by so fast. It's a
crazy time. We live in my friends so we'll say
hi to everybody. We'll do well. No, he'd like say
hi to everybody. They're like house producer Marks, so you
can say hi everybody. Oh, Hi everybody. Sorry, I thought
you were telling me to say hi to everybody. Hello everybody. Yeah, so,
producer Mark. I just because people when they don't hear
(32:35):
from you for a few days, they were like this
producer Mark, okay, are you are you hiding producer marketing
basement somewhere. I'm like, no, he's just working on the
big radio show. And some days we can't get him
on the podcast. But today he's on the podcast. Yeah, exactly.
I have a lot of extra duties. Now, it's not
just the radio show. I do a lot of stuff. Yeah,
it's got a lot of things, a lot of things.
A man running around with a lot of things. All right, Well,
(32:55):
producer Mark is fine, as you can hear. It was
not a hostage video. We just made a producer Mark.
He's fine and he sends you all regards. Have a
great weekend, folks. Appreciate you being here with me. Please

Much to get to today. We had a very disconcerting
speech from President Biden after a horrific terror attack that
killed a one hundred and seventy people, thirteen US military members.
(00:26):
Biden trying to calm the country. I don't think he
did a good job. Did this White House give a
kill list to the Taliban? We'll dive into that. Plus
the Supreme Court strikes down the unconstitutional eviction moratorium finally,
and Lieutenant Bird is the name of the fellow who
(00:47):
shot Ashley Babbitt, the member of Capitol Hill Police. He
gave an interview and we will talk about what he
said there so as you can tell, and then we'll
get some roll call. We have a very busy show
today for sure. But you know Wall Street has been
lying to you for a long time saying amasially, a

to get you out? It matters? Look? I know of
no conflict as a student of history. No conflict where
(02:15):
when a war was ending, one side was able to
guarantee that everyone they wanted to be extracted from that
country would get out and think about it, folks, make
it's important. I know American people get this and they're
gut They're going to leave people behind. The battlefield that's
(02:35):
going to happen is at this point inevitable. Hopefully no Americans,
but not even sure that's the case. Certainly we'll leave SIV,
which is the equivalent of a green card. It's a
green card category. These are people that we have given
green cards to in return for service the United States.
This is through the legal immigration system, same way. I
(02:59):
know many of you listen to or from families that
are legal immigrants, or maybe you're a legal immigrant yourself.
SIVs are legal immigrants to the United States. We're going
to leave a lot of them behind, for sure, including
some who were interpreters. There are others who were working
for contractors and doing other more day to day jobs,
(03:20):
but there were military embedded interpreters. There are going to
be some who are left behind. The Biden administration is
just telling you this is going to happen, and we've
known this for days now. We had that horrific mass
casualty attack yesterday double suicide bombing. I talked about how
this is the biggest soft target you could possibly find,
congregation of thousands of people up against gates with only
(03:45):
Taliban checkpoints around them to quote protect them, and the
US military then processing them as they try to get
into an actual interior security perimeter. And it went very tragedy,
horrifically wrong yesterday. But we can't say that it's surprising.
(04:06):
Of course, this was what isis k isis chorus on
or whatever faction. This is how much can we really
put in the intelligence community and the military intelligence apparatus.
I know that's one of the same, But how much
can we really put in their analysis of who did this?
I mean, when Joe Biden was saying yesterday that they're
(04:28):
going to go after they're gonna find justice against those
who did this, does anyone take that seriously? I mean,
how is that going? First of all, even if we
flew some drones in the sky and blew up the
people that were behind the plotting of these attacks, that
those who were involved in them, what would that change
(04:49):
exactly for the security situation the ground. Sure, it would
be justice in the sense that we would have retribution
against those involved in the suicide attack, which is good,
But would it anybody who is currently on the ground
and cobbles safer. It wouldn't change anything. No, And we
sit here today as I'm speaking to you, and all
I can think is, why wouldn't isis k if that
(05:09):
is in fact who's responsible do this again, why wouldn't they?
They are Jihatat psychopaths. There's still a lot of people
who are going to be pressed up against those gates.
There's going to be mobs forming of people that are
trying to get out, and what can we really do
about it? Maybe the Taliband didn't order the hit, but
(05:30):
maybe they just had a few of their members turn
a blind eye. We don't know what's going on with
those checks. These are Taliban checkpoints. These are terrorists who
engage in savage behavior, who will abuse sexually children and
call them wives. We know that's been happening with Taliban
(05:50):
fighters who will mutilate and execute women for minor offenses
against their so called Shariah in interpretation, right, that's who's
matting the checkpoints. And we have Afghans crowding in to
try to get out, and what are we looking for?
(06:11):
Now some sense from the Biden administration that they have
a handle on this, that they'll be able to stop this,
and Biden is telling us that there will be retribution
here you go fourteen. To those who carried out this attack,
(06:31):
as well as anyone who wishes America harm, know this,
we will not forgive. We will not forget. We will
hunt you down and make you pay. I'll defend our
interests in our people with every measure at my command.
What's that going to mean? What does he have at
(06:53):
as command? Right now? We're just trying to hold on
to our last little piece of real estate and evacuate
all of our people. Does anyone really think that we
have the kind of intelligence networks on the ground right now?
I can tell you we don't. Where we'd be able
to find out who is involved in the plotting and
planning of that mass casualty suicide bombing attack yesterday, No way,
(07:14):
no way. We can't tell you if it was Hakani
network allied with isis K or a faction of the
Taliban aligned with ISIS, or the Kadi's working with the Taliban,
or who knows. We have no real sense of what's
going on in this country. I think that's pretty clear.
Considering that the Afghan army folded in eleven days, and
(07:35):
we thought it would at least last six months. You
could say, oh, but we all thought yeah. But I'm
not sitting there with a eight hundred billion dollars Pentagon
budget at my disposal, and spy satellites and intelligence agencies
and all the things that we have to try to
get a sense of what's really going on. I mean,
in many ways, this is the most stunning intelligence failure
(07:57):
certainly since nine to eleven. Nothing like this, nothing of
this scale. Here we are, I have some of you
will pick up. There's some other things I'm sure we
could throw in the mix too. Someone brought up Libya
as a foreign policy blunder, but that didn't put thousands
and thousands of Americans in harm's way. It did end
(08:19):
up with US losing four Americans in Benghazi, so we've
already lost thirteen in this debacle in Afghanistan. But then
there's the I think the moment of shock that reverberated
through much of the country yesterday when Biden went up.
He was supposed to make everybody feel better, and here
(08:42):
is how he approaches things. Play fifteen ladies and gentlemen
gave me a list here. The first person I was
instructed to call on was Kelly o'donald NBC. Why is
why I have a list of people to call them?
(09:03):
It's all so scripted, right, It all just feels so
stage managed and phony. But how could it not. Joe
Biden was up there a kind of ashostion, Yo, sure,
fading almost like the way America's standing in the world
(09:25):
is fading. It was not confidence inspiring yesterday. The commander
in chief was not making everybody feel like he's on it,
He's got this. I think, how much worse could this
really go for the Biden administration at this point? And
then you think, oh my gosh, it absolutely could be worse,
could be much worse. We still have days to go here.
(09:46):
We still have at least hundreds of Americans who have
to get out of the country at least as of
last count, and thousands and thousands of SIV holders who
are supposed to get out of the country. But you
know what the biggest single concern the Biden administration has
right now is perception of their capability. How does this
(10:08):
affect them politically? That matters more than anything else, that
matters more than the situation on the ground in Afghanistan
for the Biden team, I can tell you that much.
Here he is going back and forth with Peter doocey seventeen.
I bear responsibility for fundamentally all that's happened of late.
But here's the deal. You know as well as I do,
that a former president made a deal with the Tally
(10:31):
Bond if he would get all American forces out of
Afghanistan by May one. In return, he was given a
commitment if the Tally Bond would continue to attack others,
but would not attack any American forces. Remember that, I'm
being serious now, I'm asking you a question because before no, no, no,
(10:54):
wait a minute, I'm asking you a question. It is
that accurate the best of your note. I think they
have an issue, that people are like to get hurt.
Some as we've seen, we've gotten killed, and that it
is messy fighting with Peter Doocy over how you know,
(11:19):
Really it's Trump's fault. You got to remember that in
this whole process, it's Trump's fault. M I thought Joe
Biden was the President of the United States. I thought
we had all fight. In fact, if you didn't say
Joe Biden was the president. Oh, and he won and
it was the cleanest election ever. No problems, no rule changes,
(11:39):
no violations to state constitutions, no fraud, no nothing right
unless you say that you're a bad per, you're an insurrectionist.
So they were very insistent that Joe Biden was really
the president. Right, we know that. So then isn't Joe
Biden responsible? What am I missing here? What? What part
(12:00):
of this? Where did I not get the memo? M
It's still President Trump's fault. As this disaster continues to
unfold in Afghanistan, stunning the Tunnel to Towers Foundation helps
us keep our commitment to never forget. This year, the
foundation is honoring gold star and fallen first responder families
with young children and catastrophically injured veterans and first responders
(12:23):
with two hundred mortgage free homes. Chairman and CEO Frank
Siller's paying tribute to the fallen by walking from the
Pentagon to Shanksville and on to Ground zero, more than
five hundred miles through six states and forty two days.
The month of August through nine to eleven. Towers of
Light are to shine at the Pentagon and Shanks for
memorials in remembrance and the names of those we lost
to nine eleven related illnesses are being read allowed at
(12:44):
a ceremony on September twelfth, on Veterans Day, the names
of those we lost the War on Terror will also
be sett aloud. Do good and help America to never forget.
Donate eleven dollars a month to Tunnel to Towers at
t twot dot org. That's t the number two t
org t twot dot org. So the officer, Lieutenant Bird,
(13:07):
who shot Ashley Babbitt in the neck, spoke out about this.
He had an interview with Lester Holt and here's what
he says about why no remember just this was on
January sixth thirty five year old female about one hundred
and what forty pounds, Ashley Babbitt is trying to come
(13:30):
through a locked door and she's breaking through the glass
and this Lieutenant Bird of Capitol Hill Police pulled his gun.
He has gun pointed at her for quite some time
and just shot her in the neck and killed her.
I didn't I don't know if if he actually said, well,
(13:51):
you know what, let's let's let him explain how he
views that she was a threat Played twenty one. I
had been yelling and screaming as loud as I was,
please stop, get back, get back, stop. We had a
weapon strolling. We see your arm out there for a
considerable amount of time. Were you wavering? I was taking
(14:11):
a tactical stance. You're ultimately hoping that your commands will
be complied with, and unfortunately they were not. What did
you think this individual was doing? Then? She was posing
a threat to United States House of Representatives. Posing a
threat to the United States House of Representatives. If this woman,
(14:34):
I'm just wondering, Let's let's listen to what he says
here for a moment, he's saying she poses a threat.
Let's let's unpack this together. There were other people in
that in that hallway too. There were other people that
were banging on that door. What if he took his
tactical stance, shot Ashley Babbitt in the neck and then
took two steps forward and just started firing into the crowd,
(14:57):
just started shooting at people. Would that be just now?
Ask yourself, why wouldn't that be justified? Right? If Ashley
Babbitt at that door, who had not actually attacked a
human being, but she had broken property. If she can
be shot and killed, why can't all the people around
(15:17):
her who were also banging on the door. Would it
be okay for Lieutenant Bird to pull his service weapon?
Which it is true? Also the rumors about how he
left it in a bathroom and was disciplined for that,
that was true. He said that in the interview. But
why couldn't he then just open fire on everybody in
(15:39):
that hallway? It seems to me that the use of
force justification here is completely in compliance with that. You know,
people are, people are being loud, there's a riot going on,
They're banging on a door. There's no actual members of
Congress nearby. No one has actually been physically attacked, yet
(16:02):
there's still a door separating Why didn't the officer run
and give at least a shove to Ashley Babbitt? Remember,
through a locked door. Folks just wondering why not, Oh,
shot through the neck, killed right there? M this is
(16:24):
this is lawful. This does tremendous damage, tremendous damage to
our sense of equal justice. Because I can tell you this,
there are plenty of times where officers have been assaulted
physically by people from BLM protests. And if this were
a BLM protester, and specifically, if this were a black
(16:46):
BLM protester who was rushing a police officer who pulled
his weapon and shot that BLM protester in the neck,
we all understand that it would be a national tragedy.
There would be more murals of that individual all over
the country, at least in major cities, and they would
be telling us that this was horrific police brutality, the
(17:10):
worst kinds of violence. No, Instead, Michael Bird, Lieutenant Michael
Bird is telling everybody that he saved countless lives. Play
twenty two according to law, it does not. I know,
based on my training and my policy, what I did
was appropriate. Have you continued to question your actions that day?
(17:33):
I knew that day. I followed my training, and I
spent countless years preparing for such a moment. You ultimately
hope that moment never occurs, but you prepare as best
you can. I know that day I saved countless lives.
Saved countless lives? Really? Really? Huh? Because who was killed
(18:00):
that day? Only Ashley Babbitt? I have to say, was
there anyone else who was killed that day. Oh, they
told us that there was an officer who's beaten to
death with a fire extinguisher. That was what the reporting
was from many many news outlets. Turn out that was
not true. That was just that was a lie. That
was a lie. Okay, So how exactly did he save
(18:25):
all these lives? Well, what did he do that saved life?
He took a life for sure. Ashley Babbitt was gonna
what rush him and beat him to death? Is that? What?
Is that what he's suggesting? Somehow these rioters, they didn't
do that anywhere else, but in this case, that's what
was going to happen. Here's Ashley Babbott's husband on that
(18:48):
Lieutenant Bird interview played twenty four pissed off. I mean,
I've only heard a couple of clips so far, Tucker.
At this point, it's not air until seven o'clock out here.
I read the full transcrip up it. I had not
heard that one clip that you just played. My agitation
levels actually going through the roof right now where he
admitted he didn't really care if she was armed or not.
(19:11):
We're unarmed or not. He didn't he didn't care. So yeah,
we're we're going down a bad rabbit hole right now.
And I don't even want to hear him talk about
how he's getting death threats and he's scared. I've been
getting death threats since January seventh, two, three, five, ten
a day, you know. And all I did on January
sixth was to become a widower. So you're gonna have
(19:33):
to suck it up, butt and take it. It's heartbreaking
to hear this man who lost his wife talking about
the situation. But NBC gave a platform to elevate the
man who shot Ashley Babbitt's all right, shot this man's wife,
(19:54):
Ashley Babbitt. He elevated him like he's a hero. That's
what they've done. He's a hero. This is the way
they set up this interview. Good job shooting that woman
in the neck. Lesser Holt suggests had to do it
to save lives. Really, I don't think so. Two different
(20:18):
centers of justice in this country, one for whom the
elites believe need to be protected and elevated, and one
for those of us who questioned why the elites have
so much power and control. And then we have the
eviction moratorium which got shut down. Finally, just say six
(20:38):
three decisions Supreme Court. The fact that there are three
judges on the Supreme Court who did not go along
with this just goes to show you what a bunch
of Marxist loons they are right, that that Bryer, Sodamayor
and Kagan would in this case say, yeah, you know what,
the government can just by by fiat, by executive order,
(21:01):
decide that your property is no longer yours. I mean,
this is madness. This is sheer authoritarian overreach in its
purest form. And three Supreme Court justices look, yeah, but
we like it. There's a pandemic. Yeah, now we're realizing
there's going to be a pandemic forever. Right, It's going
to become endemic. COVID's going to be out there forever.
(21:24):
People are starting to finally admit that. Happy to see though,
that at least it got struck down. Now people can
evict those who have refused to pay rent for a
very long time. Very pleased of course by this turn
of events. It's the way it should be. And it
is a reminder though that the left will they will
(21:45):
abuse the law, that will use the law in whatever
ways they see fit for their own power. And their
Supreme Court justices always deliver for them on whatever it
may be. Let's get into some roll call. Here we go.
First up, T J. Buck, I gotta call you out.
It sounded like the end of your podcast Monday. You
(22:06):
jumped off the DeSantis twenty twenty four train and onto
the Trump twenty twenty four train. You were pretty solid
DeSantis supporter for a bit there. What happened? Do you
know something about Desantists and or Trump? The rest of
us don't. Maybe you and your buddy Matt Walsh ought
to do a crossover episode where you debate Desantist versus
Trump for twenty twenty four. Personally, I'm still into Santist
camp because of Trump's age, but I'd like to hear
(22:28):
some honest debate about who'd make for a better president
of the two potential candidates, and I think you and
Matt present the arguments in very respectful ways. First of all,
a lot of respect for Matt Walsh. Smart guy, does
very good work. I'm totally I think DeSantis is fantastic.
I think DeSantis has done a phenomenal job as the
governor of Florida. I think that he'd be a great
(22:50):
presidential candidate. I also think that Donald Trump is clearly
very formidable still in the political arena, and I think
that he would give us four more great years if
he could get it. So, I mean, you're asking me,
it's kind of like, who do I want my champion
to be? The Hulk or the Thing? Well, actually produce
(23:11):
a mark. If you're in a bar fight, do you
want the Hulk or the Thing to be at your
bed to have your side? The Hulk? Really? Of course?
Is he stronger than the Thing? Yes, he is. He's
the strongest superhero there is stronger than Thor. I mean,
I guess it's just brewed strength. That would be Hulk.
Thor is the sneaky strength that you don't expect, all right,
(23:33):
Thor versus iron Man bar fight producer Mark, I guess
you have to take Thor because iron Man's not really
a superhero. He just has all the technology. Yeah, technically. Also,
I think Thor is a god, right, which is kind
of cool. Yes, Like I feel like that would help
you get some phone numbers at a bar and doesn't
control Actually I'm actually a god. Yeah, you know what
(23:54):
I mean? Thanks from Asgard. It's really cool. Yeah, yeah, Hey, baby,
you come up to Asgard for some why and coolers.
An iron man is rich, so good call. And then
his house in Malibu is very fancy from the movies.
I do remember that, so but TJ to what you're
asking here, Uh, I still think. I still think DeSantis
is great. I think DeSantis does an excellent job. So
(24:17):
all all about it. Um, I would be very happy
if he ran. I'd support him, you know. And look,
I also we also need to hold politicians accountable and
and ask them questions about what they're doing and everything else.
I never want to make it seem like, oh, I'm
just gonna I'm I'm working for the DeSantis campaign. But
I think he's I think he's great, and I support him.
(24:38):
I'd support Trump, and I think they're gonna work it out.
They're not going to run against each other. So Trump
either passes the torch or he's got one more. He's
got one more go in him, and I'm all, I'm
all for it. Sarah Buck. But ifan of yours for
a number of years love the work you do in
the message you preach, a question for you. Since Joe
Biden is verifiably unfit cognitively and we can all see it.
(24:58):
Doesn't Kamela some responsibility for this mess in Afghanistan? She
says she was the last one of the Roman Biden
decided to pull out, and then she conveniently leaves the country.
That's like setting the drunk man up behind the wheel,
buckling him in and then fleeing the scene. She has
completely abandoned her post. Is she not partially to blame
for this fiasco? Recall them all? Well, interesting Kamala. First
(25:25):
of all, there's not a recall mechanism for the for
the presidency, Just to be clear, Sarah. But I hear
what you're saying. I don't know how much Kamala is
involved in any of this decision making. I think Kamala
is largely involved in this administration for optics purposes. I
do not think anybody believes that she has a particular
area of company competency. I don't think anybody really believes
(25:48):
that Kamala is endowed with leadership qualities or strategic thinking
at a level where they really care what she thinks
in thisistration. But you raise an interesting point, kas Kamala
is tied to this administration and so at some level
(26:10):
she must be involved in some of the planning and
therefore some of the blame for what's going on Afghanistan.
But it'd be tough to get to the bottom of
that without actually having a press corps that would push
for information, and trust me, they don't want to get
into that. Ken. Hey, Buck, I was very concerned there'll
be no one to take over after Russia's death, but
then I happened to hear your show and thought he
is the guy. Very glad you and Clay got the nod.
(26:32):
You're doing a great job. Thanks Buck Well, Thank you, Ken.
I really appreciate that very much and it was great.
That's where I'm trying to do, trying to do the
best show I can every day and doing the best
podcast I can every day too, which is why I'm
hoping you will share the podcast. Let's see here, Maria
(26:54):
Buck You're my hero and I love you Clay as well.
Best big show podcast so far, very powerful. I am
still crying. Thank you so much for stepping up with
the plan and committing to help the soldier bring his
interpreter and family out of Afghanistan. In the end, all
we have is our integrity and our word. I hope
and pray you are successfulness mission again. Thank you, Maria,
thank you. It really means a lot, and I appreciate
(27:15):
the support and client. I are doing the best show
Weeken every day, and I of course get to do
this show for all of you, which I really enjoy
as well. I just get to have a direct conversation
with you, and it's a lot of fun. Darren, Hi Buck,
I appreciate the work you're doing in support of our
great country or bringing the truth for it on those
destroying this country. I would grasonally greatly appreciate your feedback.
(27:35):
My son recently graduated from university and has an interest
in a job that would give them the opportunity to
support the USA, possibly the CIA, or some national or
international agency. God blessed Shields High Apply online, Darren, it's
all That's where it all happens, believe or not. You
apply online, you get it going. And I mean, I'm
out of the game now so long that I don't
(27:56):
even know what the official process is these days. I
mean it's been I haven't been the intelligence community in
over ten years now, so i'd have but I do
know that they take online applications for a lot of
important government jobs, and Darren, I'd say, just tell your
son not to get frustrated by the fact that there
will be Not only is there bureaucracy once you start
(28:18):
working for the federal government, but there's a lot of
bureaucracy that you have to go through to even get
a job in the federal government. So that's where that is.
Chris hey Buck, active duty marine lawyer here stationed overseas.
I woke up this morning at three hundred messages about
what happened in Kabble. I'm just angry. Obviously, I'm a
(28:41):
marine lawyer, not some battle hardened warrior. I'll likely never
see a battlefield in my life. I'm angry because the dishonesty,
and because this president and the top officials treat us
as idiots, as if we can't see reality, as if
we'll just lap up their garbage without question. The inability
to admit mistakes or fault or even the slightest bit
of potential for improvement is maddening. I have no spect
for these people. I'd like to think if they showed
(29:01):
up here, I'd be tempted to spit on their feet
as they walked by. The whole situation Afghanistan still feels
pretty far removed from me. My day to day life
isn't going to change. I still have my job to do,
but I must say it's hard to find joy in
work when this wholly unnecessary death happens in my organization,
even a half a world away. Rest easy, Devil Dogs Center, Fidelis, Chris,
(29:24):
thank you for writing in and I look, I think
a lot of them we're all angry about what happened
in Cobble and just the incompetence of the administration on display,
and what a mess this whole thing is. And it
did not have to be this way. I think that
much is quite clear, and I'm with you. I'm praying
for the families of those lost, and for our marines
and every member of the armed forces that has downranged
(29:47):
right now in Afghanistan doing a job that puts them
in harm's way and serving their country and showing tremendous
bravery in the process. Oh, I'm gonna have to tell
you to have a great weekend coming up here, folks. Oh,
let'scheck up with our buddy producer Mark for a second
to see what his weekend plans are. What's going on
(30:08):
producing Mark? Anything fun, just more unpacking and just getting
things said, we're pretty much done, but you know now
we gotta do things like go to the container's store
and you know, organized stuff to that part of the
house buying process. How is how is the new place?
You like it? Yeah? We like it. It's getting more
and more like a home every weekend when we have
(30:28):
a chance to work on it. Nice. Nice. Do you
have some plants? I feel like that's always an adulting thing,
you know, you all of a sudden you get plants
that you have to take care of. I've thought about
getting some plants. We have a nice window sill right
by the kitchen sink that would be a cool place
to put them, So I've thought about it. Yeah, there
we go. That's what I'm talking about. Maybe you get
some plants. It'll be the first thing I've had to
(30:50):
keep alive in a very long time. What about a
pet that you could have in like a terrarium or
some kind of enclosure. Are you allowed to do that?
I know you said no dogs or cats. Yeah, pretty much,
no animals. I'm sure I could get away like a
fish or something. But what do I want to fish for?
I've always wondered if a lizard can bond with a person,
like if you have a lizard pet. You know, if
(31:11):
you have a gecko or something and one of those
lit terrariums, does the gecko start to like you after
a while? I feel like their brains are too small
so they can't actually do that. But and they're not cute. Well,
what'll I want that in my house? And what if
it gets loose? Geckos aren't bad. Yeah, no, I wouldn't.
I wouldn't want to have like a spitting cobra as
a pet. I'm always I'm always kind of astonished when
when you see one of the stories like man loses
(31:32):
like pet king cobra in apartment, like looking forward, it's like,
I don't think that's a good idea as a pet.
I'm just gonna put that out there. Yeah, And why
would you want to gecko? Those little lizards? They have
them all over Florida. They enter people's houses without permission.
And I'm still hoping to get to the Ted Lasso
show this weekend. Although I saw I think it was
actually Matt Walsh bringing him up again on the show,
(31:53):
who said that he did not find it funny. Poor opinion. Yeah,
you're not with him on that one. I mean almost everybody.
I think Matt Walsh was the first person I've heard
that doesn't like Ted Lazo. I think he was the
first one that I saw that that was very, very
opposed to it. But I'll off to check it out
myself and see and see what's what. But can you
believe that it's almost the end of the summer, Producer Bark,
(32:14):
I can't believe it, only two summer weekends left. It's crazy.
It feels like it's flown by so fast. It's a
crazy time. We live in my friends so we'll say
hi to everybody. We'll do well. No, he'd like say
hi to everybody. They're like house producer Marks, so you
can say hi everybody. Oh, Hi everybody. Sorry, I thought
you were telling me to say hi to everybody. Hello everybody. Yeah, so,
producer Mark. I just because people when they don't hear
(32:35):
from you for a few days, they were like this
producer Mark, okay, are you are you hiding producer marketing
basement somewhere. I'm like, no, he's just working on the
big radio show. And some days we can't get him
on the podcast. But today he's on the podcast. Yeah, exactly.
I have a lot of extra duties. Now, it's not
just the radio show. I do a lot of stuff. Yeah,
it's got a lot of things, a lot of things.
A man running around with a lot of things. All right, Well,
(32:55):
producer Mark is fine, as you can hear. It was
not a hostage video. We just made a producer Mark.
He's fine and he sends you all regards. Have a
great weekend, folks. Appreciate you being here with me. Please
