Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to Standing Ground with Jeremy Lahey and then I'm
like this.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Baby motherfucker better not blow up by a new glass. Shit,
I'm gonna go look on this beach. And then he
blows up all my new glass and I'm like call
my generals and they tell me they're all dead said,
and I'm like, assemble the army and they're like that
dead too, sir. So then I'm like, launch a freaking

(00:29):
missus and they're like, sir, they're gone, sir. So I'm like,
what the fuck.

Speaker 3 (00:49):
Us.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
Standing Ground is a production of Lahy Media.

Speaker 4 (01:43):
A short time ago, the US military carried out massive
precision strikes on the three key nuclear facilities in the
Iranian regime for Dau.

Speaker 5 (01:56):
Natanz and Esfahan. Everybody.

Speaker 4 (02:00):
We heard those names for years as they built this
horribly destructive enterprise. Our objective was the destruction of Iran's
nuclear enrichment capacity and a stop to the nuclear threat
posed by the world's number one state sponsor of terror. Tonight,
I can report to the world that the strikes were

(02:22):
a spectacular military success. Iran's key nuclear and Richmond facilities
have been completely and totally obliterated.

Speaker 6 (02:32):
For as long as I can remember, going back to
what I was like in the second grade, third grade,
and the Iranian Revolution of nineteen seventy nine, the Islamic
Republic of Iran has been nothing less than a royal
pain in the ass. And over the years we've had

(02:58):
this sort of bizarre our relationship with them, back and forth.
Those of you me, you don't want to do a
deep dive, go read about the Iranian hostage crisis, the
exodus of the Shah of Iran, the Iyatola comes in,
they go back to uh they go back to a
to they go back to a religious state. It appears,

(03:20):
it appears that the United States, under the direction of
our commander in chief, has set Iran's nuclear program back
years depending on who you talk to, or depending on
who you listen to, like the legacy media, who's already

(03:40):
trying to discount.

Speaker 7 (03:42):
The bombings and their success.

Speaker 6 (03:46):
But at the outset, I want to say this because
we're gonna we're gonna get into this, okay. Is I
am in This is my personal opinion. I am in
no way in favor of something called a regime change.
That should not be our objective. Iran is a threat

(04:11):
to our allies and our interests. As Winston Churchill once
very duly noted, countries don't have friends, they have interests.
Now with us, with the exception of Israel and Great Britain,
I would say that's probably true. There was a ceasefire,

(04:32):
and then the ceasefire was broken. And my understanding is
as of this morning, the cease fire has gone back
into effect and people are both sides are behaving themselves.
Yet if you listen to the media, you listen to
the press, this is a hard pill for them to swallow.

(04:54):
And other Democrats on the Hill because it was so successful,
them crazy to the point in which some of them
were calling for Donald Trump's impeachment because they weren't consulted
before the bombings. Well some of them were key members.
Were very very convoluted situation. And then I've got some

(05:20):
stats as far as when other presidents drop bombs. It's
it's fun to watch. It's like it's like a bunch
It's like a bunch of kids in a schoolyard, you know.
But anyway, all right, I'm Jeremy Leahy. This is Standing Ground,
this is Mojo Fiver Radio. This is the majority of
today's program is the situation in Iran, but we've got
other things on the docket other than Iran. Well, Uh

(05:46):
Jaws is fifty years old this summer. This past week,
the twentieth, June twentieth was the actual release date, and
we're to talk a little bit about it and what
the impact of that film had on people even to
this day. And also a little farewell to a great
musician by the name of Brian Wilson. Okay, I'm German, lady,

(06:08):
this is standing round, This is Mojo Viverradio. Welcome to Thursday,
June twenty sixth, twenty twenty five.

Speaker 4 (06:15):
Rand the bully of the Middle East must now make peace.
If they do not, future attacks will be.

Speaker 5 (06:21):
Far greater and a lot easier.

Speaker 4 (06:23):
For forty years, Iran has been saying death to America,
death to Israel. They have been killing our people, blowing
off their arms, blowing off their legs with roadside bombs,
that was their specialty. We lost over a thousand people,
and hundreds of thousands throughout the Middle East and around
the world have.

Speaker 5 (06:43):
Died as a direct result of their hate.

Speaker 4 (06:45):
In particular, so many were killed by their general Cassem
Soleimani I decided a long time.

Speaker 5 (06:54):
Ago that I would not let this happen. It will
not continue.

Speaker 4 (06:58):
I want to thank and can gradually Prime Minister peb
Net and Yahoo. We worked as a team like perhaps
no team has ever worked before, and we've gone a
long way to erasing this horrible threat to Israel. I
want to thank the Israeli military for the wonderful job
they've done, and most importantly, I want to congratulate the

(07:19):
great American patriots who flew those magnificent machines tonight, and
all of the United States military on an operation the
likes of which the world has not.

Speaker 5 (07:29):
Seen in many, many decades.

Speaker 8 (07:31):
Bom bom bombers.

Speaker 9 (08:00):
Bum bomber, and he's gotta feeling they hit the ceiling,
Mama man bum bum bum bomba, and old Uncle Sam's
getting pretty hot.

Speaker 10 (08:10):
Time and turned I ran, it took the market.

Speaker 9 (08:12):
Lot, Mama Brad bom bombers, dom bumb bum bum bomber.

Speaker 3 (08:18):
And sometimes he's gotta be a hit the ceiling, Mama.

Speaker 9 (08:22):
Rad bum bum bum bomber, And all.

Speaker 8 (08:25):
The volunteers, all obamadeers, all the financiers, better.

Speaker 9 (08:29):
To bear all my man bum bum bum bomba, bum

Speaker 11 (08:35):
Because he's gotta feeling reading hit the ceiling.

Speaker 9 (08:38):
Mama, man, bum bum bum bother.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
You're listening to Standing ground with Jeremy Lady.

Speaker 12 (09:01):
President Trump has just announced on social media that the
US has just completed three successful attacks on three nuclear
sites in Iran. This is the post that he put
out just a short time ago. We have completed our
very successful attack on the three nuclear sites in Iran,
including Foido, Natance, and Esfahan. All planes are now outside

(09:22):
of Iran airspace. A full payload of bombs was dropped
on the primary site, Florido. All planes are safely on
their way home. Congratulations to our great American warriors. There
is not another military in the world that could have
done this. Now is the time for peace. Thank you
for your attention to this matter.

Speaker 10 (09:43):
That is deliberately and then.

Speaker 13 (09:46):
That do you know what kind of a bum it was?
The exploding kind.

Speaker 6 (10:04):
Yes, exactly, the exploding kind. Thank you, Peter Sellers. Okay,
well here we are now. I want to start the
show with something that I found to be unpleasant but
kinda funny at the same time. One of the primary

(10:25):
objectives right now and I do not have an issue
with it.

Speaker 7 (10:28):
I don't think anyone does.

Speaker 6 (10:29):
Is you really want to do your best to avoid
any civilian casualties. The objective is to take out the
military sites, the leadership, whatever. But anyway, there is a
there is a cut. This is not a deep fake.
This is what I'm about to play. And there is

(10:49):
a Iranian women woman in a TV station doing her
afternoon or evening broadcast I should say evening broadcast. And
as she's giving she's delivering her her opening monologue or
whatever on the news station whatever, a bomb hits the

(11:12):
TV station, either by accident or nearby. Well maybe they
were I mean, maybe this is this bomb was from
from these railies. Maybe they were trying to knock out
their their communications and television.

Speaker 10 (11:26):
I don't know, but.

Speaker 6 (11:29):
I need to preamble by saying, after you hear this cut,
the woman's okay, But when she was giving her broadcast,
right when she said, Allah will protect us from all bombs,
guess what happens here?

Speaker 9 (11:46):
You go.

Speaker 6 (11:52):
HAPs okay, once again, Allah will protect us from all bombs. Okay,

(12:36):
there you have it. I don't I don't think she
returned to the anchor desk. But anyway, okay, here is
Vice President JD. Vance on ABC's This Week.

Speaker 14 (12:47):
This is a great thing for Israel.

Speaker 7 (12:49):
Think about this.

Speaker 14 (12:49):
They've accomplished an important military objective.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
They've helped us.

Speaker 14 (12:53):
Destroy the Iranian nuclear program. They've also destroyed the conventional
missile capability of a ran that threatened the tree of Israel.
For the Iranians, I think this is a new opportunity
to actually pursue the path of pieces. I said yesterday
what the Iranians have showed through their support of tear networks,
through their now failed effort to build a nuclear weapon,
is that they're just not very good at war. And

(13:14):
I think the President really hit the reset button and said, look,
let's actually produce long term piece for the region.

Speaker 7 (13:21):
That's always been his goal.

Speaker 14 (13:23):
I actually think when we look back, we will say
the Twelve Day War was an important reset moment for
the entire region.

Speaker 7 (13:30):
This is twenty twenty five.

Speaker 6 (13:32):
The technology we have nowadays, a lot of it we
didn't even have ten years ago. We don't need to
send in troops. We don't just send in ground pounders
and tanks. We can send a bomb an RPG through
a keyhole or a doorknob. That's how high tech this
stuff is and the capability. I was watching these b

(13:55):
two is coming back to what was it, Missouri, And
to think that they leave Missouri and then they go,
they never land anywhere else, they refuel in the air,
and then they just come back. It's absolutely amazing. All right,
here's more from the Vice President.

Speaker 14 (14:12):
These guys flew from Missouri. They didn't land a single time.
They dropped thirty thousand pound bombs on a target the
size of a washing machine, and then got back home
safely without ever landing in the Middle East or ever
stopping other than to briefly refuel.

Speaker 1 (14:29):
And of course they did that in the air.

Speaker 14 (14:30):
So it's really an incredible operation, a testament to the
power of American military.

Speaker 6 (14:36):
I don't know whether now or they did before, whether
Iran really understood the power and the might of the
United States military and what we are capable of doing.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
Now.

Speaker 6 (14:52):
I hope this ceasefire lasts, and we have some audio
of the president. As you know, we've heard not too
happy with Israel or Iran when they had reached the
ceasefire agreement and then they continued to attack. But anyway,
here's more. Here's more of JD. Vance talking about the

(15:15):
question of a regime change that the media seems to
be floating.

Speaker 7 (15:20):
That's what we want to do.

Speaker 6 (15:22):
I don't believe the president is intending a is not
wishing for a regime change or sending troops in.

Speaker 7 (15:28):
He just wants to end it. You know, Just indulge
me for a moment.

Speaker 6 (15:34):
This has been what I'm talking about, has been the
liberal message for years. Let's not get into let's not
get into regime change, Let's not get into these long wars.
And no matter what this guy does to avoid that,
they're going to attack him anyway, even as I mentioned
in the in the opening impeachment for what I don't know,

(15:59):
but anyway, right here we go.

Speaker 15 (16:00):
This is JD.

Speaker 7 (16:01):
Van's talking about the regime change issue.

Speaker 14 (16:04):
As the US ruled out targeting the Supreme leader in Iran,
as the US ruled out trying to achieve regime change.

Speaker 7 (16:15):
Well, first of.

Speaker 14 (16:15):
All, we don't want to achieve regime change. We want
to achieve the end of the Iranian nuclear program. John,
That's America's objective, and that's what the President has set
us out to do. The President in the very tweet
you mentioned of the truth that you mentioned, John said
explicitly that he's not trying to take out the Iranian
Supreme leader, he's trying to take out their nuclear program.

Speaker 7 (16:33):
And of course we took a major step forward with
that last.

Speaker 14 (16:36):
Night, and again, John, I think we have to back
up and test some premises here. How do you achieve
long term peace? How do you prevent spiraling Middle Eastern conflict?
Is it through overwhelming military power targeted to an American objective?
Or is it by sort of walking yourself into these
long term, protracted military conflicts. I think by choosing overwhelming force,

(17:01):
and overwhelming force tied to something that is important to
the American people, that is the end of the Iranian
nuclear program, we can achieve piece much more fully than
if we sort of sit on our hands and hope
that somehow, if the Iranians get a nuclear weapon, they're
going to be more peaceful. That is a stupid approach,
and the President rejected it.

Speaker 6 (17:21):
Okay, perfect segue as I move on. But first, hey, guys,
you want to follow me on Twitter? It is simple, right,
just go at lahy l e a h y jeremy
j e r e m y. It's at leahy l
e a h y Jeremy J. E. R. E. M.
Y Well, JD. Vance, and Ted Cruz beg to differ.

(17:45):
Ted Cruz has indicated through interviews and statements that he
would be seeking a regime change in Iran.

Speaker 7 (17:54):
Now, I like Ted Cruz.

Speaker 6 (17:56):
I agree with Ted Cruz on a lot of stuff,
but I don't agree with him on that one, or
any Democrat or Republican. Once again, don't want to do
it as was it. Ben Franklin said, it's a lot
easier to get into a war than to get out
of one. I think we've learned our lesson with this
stuff over the years. If we can take care of
this issue, stabilize the region without sending in ground pounders,

(18:21):
let's go for it. We've got the power, we've got
the might, we've got the technology.

Speaker 7 (18:26):
Let's use it.

Speaker 1 (18:28):
Now.

Speaker 6 (18:28):
Ted Cruz sat down with Tucker Carlson, and it was
an interesting back and forth because actually I think that
Ted Cruz got owned here by Tucker Carlson.

Speaker 16 (18:40):
How many people living around by the way, I don't
know the population at all. No, I don't know the population.
You don't know the population of the country. You see
to topple.

Speaker 7 (18:51):
How many people living around nine eight two million.

Speaker 17 (18:53):
Okay, how could you not know that. I don't sit
around memorizing population tables.

Speaker 16 (19:00):
Well, it's kind of relevant because you're calling for the
overthrow of the government.

Speaker 17 (19:04):
Why is it relevant whether it will because ninety million
or eighty million or one hundred million.

Speaker 16 (19:07):
Why because if you don't know anything about the country.

Speaker 17 (19:09):
You didn't say I don't know anything about Okay, what's
the ethnic mix of Ron? They are Persians and person
of that ly Shia. Okay, he's not even you don't
know anything about Iran.

Speaker 7 (19:20):
So okay, I am not the Tucker Carlson bird on Iran.
You're a senator who's calling for the other one government, the.

Speaker 1 (19:27):
One about the country.

Speaker 17 (19:29):
No, you don't know anything about the country. You're the
one who claims they're not trying to murder Donald Trump.

Speaker 10 (19:33):
You know, I'm not saying that.

Speaker 7 (19:34):
Who can't figure out to say killed General Solamoni? They're
trying to murder Trump?

Speaker 16 (19:40):
Yes, because you're not calling for military strikes.

Speaker 7 (19:42):
Against them in retaliation.

Speaker 17 (19:43):
And if they really believe that carrying out military strikes today,
who said Israel was right with our help?

Speaker 7 (19:49):
I've said we Israel is leading them, but we're supporting them.

Speaker 16 (19:52):
Well, this you're breaking news here because the US government
last night denied the National Security Council Spokesmanlex Feiffer denied
on behalf of Trump that we were acting on Israel's
behalf in any offensive capacity. We're not bombing, then Israel's bombing.
Then you just said we were. We are supporting as
I sinks your senator, if you're saying the United States
government is we're with a run right now people are listening.

Speaker 6 (20:13):
Okay, shame on me. I should have before I played
the actuality the cut. I should have let you know
this was before Donald Trump had ordered the airstrikes.

Speaker 7 (20:24):
Well leave it to.

Speaker 18 (20:28):
Is it.

Speaker 7 (20:28):
Margaret Brennan.

Speaker 6 (20:31):
Had Secretary of State Marco Rubio on and this was
after the bombings, and this was to be expected by
the media to kind of be like, well, did we really.

Speaker 7 (20:41):
Achieve what we intended to achieve?

Speaker 6 (20:44):
Of course, because it's Donald Trump, they got to somehow
make it into a failure.

Speaker 7 (20:51):
Here's Secretary of Rubia.

Speaker 19 (20:53):
Are you saying there that the United States did not
see intelligence that the Supreme Leader had ordered weaponization.

Speaker 20 (21:03):
That's irrelevant. I think that question being asked in the media,
that's an irrelevant question me in.

Speaker 19 (21:08):
US intelligence assessment. You know it's not yes, it was
that political or I.

Speaker 7 (21:13):
Know that better than you know that, and I know that.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
That's not the case.

Speaker 20 (21:15):
But whether the order was given, and the people who
say that it doesn't matter if the order was given,
they have everything they need to build nuclear weapons. Why
would you bury Why would you bury things in a
mountain three hundred feet under the ground, Why would you
bury six Why do they have sixty percent in enrich uranium?
Why do they have a space program? Is Aarron going
to go to the moon?

Speaker 6 (21:33):
No, it's obvious that Iran has been working on a nuke.
Obvious Where did they get that nuclear technology? By the way,
that is rhetorical. Anyway I got to my time was
not My time's not limited today, really, but I want
to try to get in as as much as I can.

Speaker 7 (21:54):
Here is Senator Tom Cotton.

Speaker 21 (21:57):
I think I would venture a pretty good guest tonight
that the world and especially that region is breathing a
sigh of relief tonight because nobody wanted Iranian hegemony. What
Donald Trump accomplished in his first term that he never
really got a lot of credit for was the shared

(22:17):
intelligence and the partnership that he had with the United
States and Israel, and the Emirates and the Saudis, and
the Egyptians and the Jordanians, all against the Iranian hegemony.
I would imagine that the leaders of all of those
countries tonight are grateful to President Donald J.

Speaker 1 (22:36):
Trump.

Speaker 22 (22:39):
Yes, I agree, Sean. There are two things respected above
all else in the Middle East. Strength and iron will.
Donald Trump has demonstrated both tonight. Benjamin Nyahu has demonstrated
over the last few weeks. Our militaries, both the United
States and the Israeli Defense Forces have demonstrated their capabilities
are second to nine. So it's time for Iran's leaders

(23:00):
to make a decision. Do they want to bring this
to a close by suing for peace and accepting the
terms that we will provide, or do they want to
take their lives into their own hands by targeting Americans
in the region around the world. Again, as you said,
President Trump posted that we know where the supreme leader is.
Israel over the last year and a half has killed

(23:23):
the leaders of Hamas three times and Hesbelah supposedly buried
in underground bunkers or tunnels. Does a supreme leader really
want to risk that for himself, those around him, and
the critical sources of Iran's regime and government earned economy,
like those oil refineries or like those gas fields. It's

(23:46):
in their court now. They need to make the right
decision not to target Americans.

Speaker 6 (23:51):
That would be a very stupid move on Iran's part
if they were to harm Americans. Honestly think and hope
that Iran may have gotten the message. We've never ever
bombed Iran.

Speaker 7 (24:10):
We never have.

Speaker 6 (24:12):
As a matter of fact, during the late under the
cart administration, they walked all over us. It was embarrassing.
I mean I was a little kid, you know, but
even then I was embarrassed that that went on for
so long. So it takes someone like Donald Trump with
a set of balls on him that makes a decision

(24:34):
and says, now, let's go in and let's take care
of this.

Speaker 7 (24:37):
Okay when we get back.

Speaker 10 (24:39):
The whole.

Speaker 6 (24:42):
Congress didn't approve it, well they's okay, they don't need to.

Speaker 7 (24:50):
But anyway, I don't want to.

Speaker 6 (24:52):
I don't want to jump the gun and you know,
steal my own thunder prior to getting into this. So
all right, I'm germanly diss iss staining ground this is mojo.
I have a radio quick break right back.

Speaker 4 (25:01):
A short time ago, the US military carried out massive
precision strikes on the three key nuclear facilities in the
Iranian regime Fordeaux, Natans, and Sfahan.

Speaker 5 (25:17):
Everybody heard those names for years as they built this
horribly destructive enterprise.

Speaker 4 (25:25):
Our objective was the destruction of Iran's nuclear enrichment capacity
and a stop to the nuclear threat posed by the
world's number one state sponsor of terror. Tonight, I can
report to the world that the strikes were a spectacular
military success. Iran's key nuclear and Richmond facilities have been

(25:47):
completely and totally obliterated.

Speaker 23 (25:50):
Mortajotan Mottas Chariti Sadik Shahni did fazo your go borrow
you day?

Speaker 11 (26:03):
Instead?

Speaker 24 (26:32):
You really tell obtain a Well, you were a girl
from me. You did the chee I said, Jesus.

Speaker 10 (26:44):
You were a person for me to tain.

Speaker 25 (26:51):

Speaker 17 (26:52):
You just a bu.

Speaker 24 (26:54):
To tain say.

Speaker 10 (26:56):
Motions it you.

Speaker 16 (27:04):
You you.

Speaker 1 (27:32):
You're listenday just standing ground with jeremy. Lady, how is
the election made you feel?

Speaker 26 (27:37):
On a scale from one to ten, with ten being
Nazi Nazi not. My name is doctor Nick Peterson, and
I specialize in those suffering from TDS Trump Derangement Center.

Speaker 10 (27:48):
Hello, I'm doctor Peterson.

Speaker 26 (27:51):
How are you well?

Speaker 7 (27:53):
Donald Trump is a felon.

Speaker 10 (27:54):
Nope, I asked how you were doing.

Speaker 26 (27:57):
The majority of Americans can mentally handle election res a
on both sides of the aisle. However, there's this small,
albeit growing group of I don't want to say Americans,
but people that are just disconnected from reality. Fascist, and honestly,
it makes diagnosing these people a whole lot easier.

Speaker 10 (28:16):
I just check their social media.

Speaker 26 (28:20):
Gone are the days when you just search your symptoms
on web MD at home by yourself. Now they record
their symptoms and post them for the world to see.
The haircut is also a dead giveaway.

Speaker 10 (28:31):
So what brings you in today?

Speaker 8 (28:33):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (28:34):
I don't know.

Speaker 26 (28:34):
Maybe it's the Orange democracy destroying Putin love and dictator
all right, so mental illness. They are completely blind to
the fact that their observed actions and ideologies we're a
big factor in their party's loss. Let me ask you this,
do you even know what democracy is?

Speaker 10 (28:53):
Follow up question?

Speaker 26 (28:55):
Do you know how Kamala Harris became the nominee?

Speaker 1 (28:58):
I know you're a.

Speaker 10 (28:59):
Deplorable nazi fascist bigot.

Speaker 26 (29:02):
Okay needs turns out that calling half the country Nazis
for four years was not a winning.

Speaker 11 (29:10):
Strategy, and yet somehow not even CARDIV could save them.

Speaker 26 (29:16):
Do you realize what I'm going through? Yep, delusions. I
am losing my right to vote on where you get
in your information will be Goldberg. Well what's the remedy,
you might be wondering. Well, if you ask me, it's
a history lesson in Jesus, But the pharmacy doesn't offer
those I prescribe them a brain and I send them
to trybrain.

Speaker 10 (29:36):
Dot com for more information.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
Well, i'll show you.

Speaker 26 (29:40):
I'm moving to Canada. That'd be great, and I'll be
shaving my head. Oh that's now. And one last thing,
I'm going on a sex strike.

Speaker 10 (29:48):
You're a loss.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
Oh no, you are today just standing ground with Jeremy Lahy.

Speaker 2 (29:58):
So anyway, you guys, we are completely safe down here
in this bunker. These motherfuckers can drop anything they want
and they can't do shiit to me.

Speaker 5 (30:08):
So we can just dance and party all night long
down here.

Speaker 1 (30:12):
Okay, what the hell?

Speaker 5 (30:14):
Okay, everybody, we may come, everybody, we may come.

Speaker 3 (30:18):
Cable I wrong violent to bring in the fine bring.

Speaker 15 (30:51):
Yeah, do they violated, but Israel violated it too. Israel,
as soon as we made the deal, they came out
and they dropped a load of bars, the likes of
which I've never seen before, the biggest load that we've seen.

Speaker 5 (31:04):
I'm not happy with Israel.

Speaker 15 (31:06):
You know, when I say, okay, now you have twelve hours,
you don't go out in the first hour and just
drop everything you.

Speaker 20 (31:12):
Have on them.

Speaker 5 (31:12):
So I'm not happy with them. I'm not happy with
Iron either.

Speaker 15 (31:16):
But I'm really unhappy if Israel's going out this morning
because the one rocket that didn't land, that was shot
perhaps by mistake, that didn't land, I'm not happy about that.

Speaker 1 (31:26):
You know what we have?

Speaker 15 (31:29):
We basically have two countries that have been fighting so
long and so hard that they don't know what the
fuck they're doing. Do you understand that?

Speaker 7 (31:39):
No, that is not a deep fake.

Speaker 18 (31:41):
No, you.

Speaker 6 (31:43):
He what came out of his mouth. You're you're not
hallucinating played again.

Speaker 8 (31:50):
You know what we have?

Speaker 15 (31:51):
We basically have two countries that have been fighting so
long and so hard that they don't know what the
fuck they're doing.

Speaker 5 (31:58):
Do you understand that?

Speaker 7 (32:00):
The reaction from Congress not to that? But look, can
I just quickly.

Speaker 6 (32:06):
For one moment on the whole f bomb with Donald Trump,
I think we've moved on from the fact that Donald
Trump will say what's on his mind.

Speaker 7 (32:16):
I mean that ship has sailed. So when I turn
on the TV and they say, oh, he really shouldn't
be talking like that, and there's could be children in
front of the TV, you know what I mean? He
is who he is and he's not going to change.

Speaker 6 (32:33):
But also in listening to that cut, I think he's
he's he was genuinely frustrated because the ceasefire agreement they
agreed to and then they violated it, And he didn't
come out and say, well, I'm blaming Iran here because
Israel is our ally he said I'm upset with both
of them, both of them.

Speaker 7 (32:54):
And sent the message.

Speaker 6 (32:55):
Okay, Well, the reaction from Congress is kind of mixed,
and the Democrats in some ways some of them are
being careful and some of them are not.

Speaker 7 (33:08):
Here's a little Montaga. The president has acted so prematurely.

Speaker 14 (33:11):
The destruction of these facilities is a positive in the
sense that it will set back around's program.

Speaker 17 (33:19):
Trump lied to the American people into his voters promising
he would not get US in yet another Middle East war.

Speaker 11 (33:26):
He was lying to us about what he was going
to do.

Speaker 5 (33:28):
It is so grossly unconstitutional.

Speaker 11 (33:32):
Literally, you holiday us on Monday.

Speaker 12 (33:34):
I've been always calling to destroy these nuclear facilities.

Speaker 22 (33:38):
It clearly could endanger our forces in the region and
Americans around the world.

Speaker 6 (33:43):
John Fetterman there, he's become sort of the voice of reason.
He's sort of like the Bill Maher on the Hill
who's like, yeah, no, this was a good idea. And
I think Adam the lying sack of Schiff, the lying
sack of Schiff, actually said that he is not necessarily
opposed this. Well, leave it to who. And she's this one,

(34:07):
She's not the only one when this stuff happens. I
get a real kick out of it. The leader, they're
now saying of the Democratic Party bubblehead, Alexandria Acasio Cortes
aosil like she said that John Kennedy of Louisiana once said,

(34:27):
he said, Alexandria Cortes is the reason they put directions
on the back of shampoo bottles. She does not understand
basic logic. And I'd like to bet that a lot
of Democrats when they when she goes out and she
opens her mouth, they cringe, they they they feel well.

(34:51):
It's been rumored that on a few occasions when Nancy
Pelosi was speaker that she had to reel her in
a few times and say, hey, let's be careful because
she was becoming, in many ways, an embarrassment.

Speaker 7 (35:01):
She still was an embarrassment. She's pathetic. But anyway, she
was coming down from the.

Speaker 6 (35:09):
Rayburn Building in Washington where she walked over to some
reporters and basically said that what Donald Trump did.

Speaker 7 (35:17):
Was un constitutional and she wasn't brief done the matter.

Speaker 19 (35:24):
Bath Admitting that he.

Speaker 27 (35:28):
Unilaterally brought the United States into a war without congressional
approval is a very grave public admission.

Speaker 13 (35:37):
It is illegal, it's.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
Unconstitutional, and.

Speaker 27 (35:41):
So for me, while the president is posting something about
a ceasefire, I think what he also posted was an
official acknowledgment that this was war, and I think that
is something that should be taken into your series.

Speaker 28 (36:00):
There are a lot of Democrats are throwing cold water
around the idea of the president deserves to be impeached
over this, the same thing you should be throwing around
impeachment given it such a grave, serious matter.

Speaker 10 (36:11):
What do you say to that?

Speaker 27 (36:12):
I mean of course, everyone can have their differences of
opinion regarding that matter.

Speaker 11 (36:18):
A resolution has.

Speaker 27 (36:19):
Not been filed and not filed in a privilege since
I believe that a president bombing and bringing this country
into direct conflict with another nation state without notifying full
notification of Congress, without congressional approval, endangering service members US

(36:42):
military bases, not providing intelligence, is reckless. I think that,
and we know that this is not a left.

Speaker 10 (36:52):
Or right issue.

Speaker 27 (36:53):
An overwhelming amount of Americans are opposed to the United
States being dragged into war. And if we want to
talk about serious decisions, I think the serious decision of
entering the United States into direct conflict without any legal approval,
unconstitutionally is the great decision that we need to.

Speaker 13 (37:15):
Be talking about right now.

Speaker 10 (37:18):
Bubblehead, do you haven't do nothing?

Speaker 1 (37:21):
Site?

Speaker 10 (37:21):
Can you have fixed? I'm part of your nose?

Speaker 6 (37:24):
Okay, First of all, let's deal with the facts. The
first fact right up front, and that is this, the
president of the United States does not need congressional approval
to drop bombs on an adversary.

Speaker 7 (37:41):
I'm going to say it again.

Speaker 6 (37:43):
The President of the United States does not require approval.

Speaker 7 (37:50):
Now, the Congress has the right to advise and.

Speaker 6 (37:55):
Be consulted and oversight and that kind of thing, and
key members of Congress were informed of the impending plan
to Bambarran, Does she honestly think that Donald Trump is
going to pick up the phone and tell all five

(38:15):
hundred and thirty five members of Congress what.

Speaker 7 (38:18):
We're about to do? I wouldn't. I wouldn't trust her
with any sensitive information.

Speaker 6 (38:26):
You think if they all knew that, someone wouldn't leak
it to the New York Times or the Washington Post.

Speaker 7 (38:34):
And put people in danger? Are you kidding me?

Speaker 1 (38:37):
Well?

Speaker 6 (38:37):
Anyway, on that note, I want to remind AOC like Immagad,
AOC like is.

Speaker 7 (38:48):
In the final year.

Speaker 6 (38:50):
Of Barack Obama the messiah Barack Obama's presidency Prior to
January twentieth, twenty seven seventeen, when Donald Trump took office,
Barack Obama dropped close to twenty seven thousand bombs over

(39:10):
a one year period Syria twelve thousand, Iraq twelve thousand,
Afghanistan fifteen hundred, Pakistan three, Libya, five hundred, Yemen about forty,
Somalia about fifteen. Never got congressional approval, didn't need it.

(39:34):
His drone strikes in which, by the way, there were
civilian casualties. I don't remember seeing any member of Congress
come out and say, hey, he didn't talk to me
about this, Well, he didn't need to. It's the old
suey generous thing for Donald Trump. All the rules are different,

(39:56):
they change. What they these people don't seem to understand
is that the presidency is not a person, it is
an office.

Speaker 7 (40:06):
It's the Donald Trump rule.

Speaker 6 (40:09):
Al Green, the congressman, called for Donald Trump's impeachment, which,
of course the resolution never went anywhere and it's not
going to. So you listen to someone as idiotic as
she is to come out and think, I wouldn't want
AOC ordering my lunch, never mind trust her with war plans,

(40:35):
or I should say bombing plans. Right, Alexander Cortes is
the type of person that you send out to the
supermarket to get a gallon of milk and she comes
home with a half pint of cream. She's an idiot.
So anyway, apart from that, I'm sure she's pretty cool.
All right, I'm german Ly. This is standing ground. This

(40:57):
is Mojo Viverr Radio. We're done with Iran now, at
least on this program. We're watching it. It is a
very very fluid situation. Hopefully, hopefully the Trump administration will
be able to get some type of long term piece
between Iran and Israel. Donald Trump could be a great peacemaker,

(41:24):
but they don't want that. They don't want the word
peace and Donald Trump side by side. It's like you
flipped a pancake. Everything the Democrats say have been saying
about these endless wars for years, Donald Trump agrees with them,

(41:44):
and now all of a sudden they don't agree with them.
So it's crazy. It's crazy stuff. But anyway, all right,
I'm Germany, this is standing round, This is Mojo Viver Radio.
When we get back, we're really gonna move off topic.
Jaws fifty years ago this summer that film premiered. I

(42:06):
got some I got some great audio where we'll we'll
weigh on that upon our return.

Speaker 1 (42:11):
You know what we have.

Speaker 15 (42:12):
We basically have two countries that have been fighting so
long and so hard that they don't know what the
fuck they're doing.

Speaker 5 (42:20):
Do you understand that?

Speaker 2 (42:22):
Okay, I know some of you crazy motherfuckers are calling
for Dead to America and crazy shit like that, but
let's get real people. The New American president with a
nice he is not fucking around.

Speaker 5 (42:32):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (42:33):
He specifically told me he would shove a bunker Buster
missile up my ass if I ever harmed any American.
And I don't know about you, but that shit sounds
painful as hey. So let's all just chill a little bit. Okay,
go fuck a goat or whatever you crazy guys do
in your spare time.

Speaker 5 (42:54):
Okay, thank you.

Speaker 29 (43:10):
Out of KI told the poogie man, you have to
let that bag cron.

Speaker 10 (43:17):
The oil down the desert with.

Speaker 5 (43:21):
Have to shake it to the top.

Speaker 29 (43:25):
The shaking to his kadillac. He went closing down the bill.
The post wasn't stand here. I'm the bady, a quick.

Speaker 9 (43:39):
Shy shuddy.

Speaker 1 (43:54):
You know what we have?

Speaker 15 (43:55):
We basically have two countries that have been fighting so
long and so hard that they don't know what the
fuck they're doing.

Speaker 5 (44:02):
Do you understand that.

Speaker 1 (44:05):
You're listening to standing ground with Jeremy? Lady?

Speaker 30 (44:09):
Are you or your loved ones suffering from illnesses such
as TDS also known as Trump derangement syndrome? Do you
dismiss or deny the current issues facing our country such
as historic inflation, illegal immigration, corporate corruption, World War three
escalations and the chronic disease epidemic. If so, you might
be struggling from TDS. Introducing independence. Independence allows you the

(44:33):
freedom to finally think independently once again, Instead of believing
everything you hear from the mainstream media, independence allows for constructive,
critical thinking.

Speaker 11 (44:42):
I used to hear people on the news say.

Speaker 31 (44:44):
Things like Donald Trump and the movement he is encouraged
are a threat to democracy.

Speaker 1 (44:49):
And I instantly believed it.

Speaker 32 (44:51):
With independence, I now realize the media is run by
the Democrat elite, who are a corrupt oligarchy that sensors
free speech, silences political opponents sports forever war was, and
abandons democracy by annointing its candidates.

Speaker 11 (45:04):
Independence may not be for everyone. If you enjoy being
lied to.

Speaker 30 (45:08):
About your president's cognitive abilities, support or willly in totalitarianism,
or are excited about communist fiscal policy, independence may not
be right for you. Common side effects of independence may
include an awakening of rational thought, successfully identifying propaganda, freedom
of choice, loss of hatred, anti narcissistic behavior, and love

(45:29):
of democracy.

Speaker 33 (45:30):
I used to blindly hate whoever my party was running against.
I didn't care about facts or policy because I was
hopelessly indoctrinated with independence. I'm much more interested in policies
that uphold democracy, and I truly care about the health
of our country and its citizens.

Speaker 30 (45:43):
Ask your doctor if independence is right for you, and
enjoy your freedoms once again.

Speaker 1 (45:51):
Absolutely, you're listening to standing ground with Jeremy Lahy. What
we are dealing with it here? It is a perfect as.

Speaker 25 (46:07):
An eating machine, a great white shark, a stake to
claim in the waters off family the island.

Speaker 1 (46:17):
You yelled, Barracuda. Everybody says, you yelled, shark. We've got
a panic on our hands.

Speaker 32 (46:26):
On the forty July.

Speaker 1 (46:30):
This shark swallow, whoever.

Speaker 8 (46:36):
Have one to do this before?

Speaker 16 (46:40):
Hello, he's trying to run.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
You're gonna need a bigger poach.

Speaker 6 (47:03):
Summer of nineteen seventy five, one that will be permanently
embedded into my Museum of recollections. The year that Jaws
hit the theaters. It was the first film referred to
as a blockbuster. And I look only I speak for myself, Okay.

(47:24):
I was about eight years old when I can't believe
my parents let me go see that movie. And I
went with a friend of mine's parents who are allowed
to bring you in and all that, But I'd say
it probably wasn't until about the fifth time that I
had seen the film that I could actually open my eyes.
I mean, many people went back several times before they

(47:46):
just open their eyes through the entire film. I mean,
I've often said to this day that last scene two
scenes the boy on the raft is horrific, and the
last scene where Quinn's last stand when he gets eaten
by the shark on the boat. The incredible thing is
is the cultural impact it had. But for me, I

(48:09):
look at as being something far different in the sense
that Steven Spielberg was twenty seven years old when he
directed that film.

Speaker 7 (48:18):
I mean, he was a real rookie. But there was
no CGI. There was no computer studio.

Speaker 6 (48:26):
As Steven Spielberg said the other night, it was not
a Hollywood film. It was a Martha's Vineyard film. And
the cast was a lot of local so it had
that local flavor to it. And the storyline, the characters,
the acting, the score, the music was just unbelievable, and

(48:48):
to this day it is truly considered to be one
of the greatest films ever made. Well, I went into
these archives online to find some old cuts, right and
I found this one of Roy Scheider, a guy I
think he must have died. He must have died twelve

(49:10):
thirteen years ago.

Speaker 7 (49:11):
He's gone.

Speaker 6 (49:12):
I think the only principal actor left is Richard Dreyfus.
But anyway, here's Roy Scheider being interviewed in nineteen seventy
five after the film premiered by Geraldo Rivera.

Speaker 34 (49:24):
Mario Puser once said that after The Godfather started and
he started writing Godfather Too, that he was in the
mafia business. I wonder if after doing enough of these
interview shows, you might think you're in.

Speaker 5 (49:35):
The shark business.

Speaker 35 (49:36):
Certainly do certainly?

Speaker 1 (49:37):
Do you think we could do Jaws too?

Speaker 5 (49:40):
Son of Jaws?

Speaker 1 (49:41):
Return of Jaws might be that way.

Speaker 2 (49:44):
It might be that way.

Speaker 34 (49:45):
You went to a sneak preview, and I guess the
audience really responded.

Speaker 18 (49:48):
Well.

Speaker 35 (49:49):
It was the first time I had seen the picture
put together, and the audience scared me because the people
just they get so emotionally involved that when their fright
and they really.

Speaker 1 (50:00):
Let it rip.

Speaker 35 (50:01):
And now I'm not used to sitting in the theater
where people go right next to you and they really.

Speaker 10 (50:06):
Scare you, and then they talk through.

Speaker 1 (50:07):
The next scene.

Speaker 35 (50:10):
Like this, and I'm sitting there and I'm watching a
picture for the first time, and I'm thinking, wait a minute,
watch the movie.

Speaker 1 (50:16):
They're so scared. They don't, they don't, they don't want.

Speaker 10 (50:18):
To watch at that time.

Speaker 34 (50:19):
How does it feel having co billing with a shark?

Speaker 35 (50:24):
Well, we'll have to talk about that now. It's wonderful.
It's wonderful because the shark plays such a marvelous part.

Speaker 13 (50:33):
In this film.

Speaker 1 (50:34):
He's not Walt Disney.

Speaker 10 (50:35):
I mean, there's no Walt Disney aspect to this.

Speaker 1 (50:37):
Animal at all.

Speaker 35 (50:38):
And he's something that an audience can really hate. He's tough,
he's a great antagonist. So you're only as good as
your antagonist, right do you.

Speaker 34 (50:47):
Think I know that your role is the is the
role that people will empathize with. You're the most human,
ordinary kind of person in the movie. I wonder if
the shark will get all that hate wrapped up in him,
if people will assess had everything evil with the sharp?

Speaker 7 (51:01):
Well, I think they will.

Speaker 35 (51:02):
I don't think there's any of us that hasn't gone
swimming or been in the ocean that hasn't been aware
of all kinds of creepy crawleys down there. And your
imagination does strange things.

Speaker 1 (51:13):
So this is a chance to really let it all out.

Speaker 6 (51:16):
And a lot of people who went and saw that movie,
including yours, truly, though I will say the movie had
nothing to do with it. I don't go in the ocean.
I love the ocean. I have a home on an island,
but I will not go in the ocean. I've always
had a fear of dark water. Not knowing what's underneath
me really freaks me out. But a lot of people

(51:36):
after seeing that movie, it really had an unbelievable psychological effect. Well,
this week because I'm in Massachusetts, so there's been all
this stuff on the vineyard. They're having lectures, festivals. I mean,
you wouldn't believe the merchandise. It's just it's well, it's
great for commerce, it's great down the vineyard. But every

(51:58):
time people go to the vineyard, they want to go
see the ferry where you know, the mayor and the
chief have the argument.

Speaker 7 (52:05):
They want to go.

Speaker 6 (52:06):
It's great, it's wonderful. What a lot of people don't
realize is it is the finished product. Even was shocking
to someone like Steven Spielberg, because to shoot the film
was such a mess. They went over budget. They went
over time they shot it on the water, they had

(52:28):
weather issues. The shark would keep breaking down. I think
they had a couple of them because it wasn't properly
acclimated to be in salt water. I guess that was
the problem, and it would just like roll over and
break and they'd be like a week behind to fix
the friggin thing, and then they'd have to go back out.
I mean, these people, these actors, cinematographers, producers, everyone worked

(52:49):
frightfully well in very very poor conditions. I did watch
the film probably for the three hundredth time the other night,
and I always kind of take away something different from
it every time.

Speaker 7 (53:01):
It's kind of like The Wizard of Oz, the storyline
that carry you. You could not have casted that movie
better better.

Speaker 6 (53:08):
But anyway, speaking of disaster to shoot, here's here's Richard
Dreyfus a few years ago with Rachel Ray talking about
when they were shooting a scene and the boat, the
Orca literally just started to sink and they were trying
to get it back into shore before everyone drowned on
the boat. There was the three principles we were on board,

(53:30):
Bob Shaw, Roy Scheider and Richard Dreyfus, This is very funny.

Speaker 5 (53:33):
Have a listen.

Speaker 22 (53:35):
The shark is working, or Pete, the shark is working,
Gret the shark is.

Speaker 5 (53:40):
The boat is sinking.

Speaker 1 (53:41):
The boat.

Speaker 5 (53:43):
I was on that boat, yeh man, did you take
a whole.

Speaker 29 (53:48):
Lot of swimming scuba lessons before you went out to
do this?

Speaker 7 (53:51):
Not before, but after after you figured that.

Speaker 17 (53:54):
And so on.

Speaker 25 (53:55):
The boat was Robert Shaw, Roy Scheider, myself a seventy
year old sound man, the fifty thousand dollars Nagra tape recorder,
and the stunt coordinator who jumped to the wheel because
our anchor had just come out of the floor of
the ocean and we were sinking in the Atlantic, and

(54:16):
he was trying to power the boat into chap Equitic
Island and all the time screaming, this is the worst.

Speaker 5 (54:26):
And that's I mean.

Speaker 6 (54:28):
There's a lot of interviews with them about incidences like
that when they were when they were shooting the film.
Richard Drives is very very funny, telling telling the story.
But notwithstanding, there were so many great moments in the film,
and there were moments that made you laugh, made you jump,

(54:48):
made you cry, made you It had sort of the
element of every type of movie put into one. It
was considered a horror film. I would say, horror, thriller,
whatever you want to say, a very Hitchcockian in the beginning.
Don't forget, we don't really see the shark until halfway
through the film. We might see the fin whatever, but

(55:09):
we don't see that that infamous scene when when Roy
Scheider you're gonna need a bigger boat, when the when
the shark comes off from the stern on the back
of the boat. Well, there was one scene that they did,
and they were ambivalent about it because it dealt with
a very very sensitive issue, a very sensitive story about

(55:32):
the USS Indianapolis. There's a destroyer that was delivering parts
of the bomb that would be used to be dropped
on Hiroshima, and on the way back to San Francisco,
it was sunk by a Japanese torpedo and many of

(55:54):
the sailors on board, including officers uh they died, but
a lot of them died as a result of shark attacks.
And for those survivors, and a lot of them are
still around of the Indianapolis, it's a very very sensitive,
horrific story which for the rest of their lives they've

(56:14):
got to have some type of PTSD. And Robert Shaw
had reviewed it, and he was a historian by nature,
and he wanted to be very careful that he didn't
mess the story up because he didn't want to offend anybody.
You gotta be careful in situations like this. And at
first he thought, maybe we shouldn't do it. Whatever, well,

(56:35):
I'm going to play you this scene. Now, keep in mind,
in this scene, Robert Shaw is completely shitfaced. As a
matter of fact, the next day he had no recollection
of shooting this scene, called Stephen Spielberg and said, how
bad did I embarrass myself? And Spielberg said something to

(56:57):
the effect of, don't worry, you were great, And it
became one of, if not one of the most iconic
monologues in movie history. Here's Robert Shaw telling the story
of the Indianapolis into this day. It sends shivers up
my spine.

Speaker 10 (57:15):
What's that one?

Speaker 1 (57:17):
What that one there on your arm?

Speaker 13 (57:21):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (57:22):
So I got that removed?

Speaker 13 (57:24):
Don't tell me.

Speaker 1 (57:25):
Don't tell me, mother?

Speaker 10 (57:33):
What tupa?

Speaker 1 (57:40):
That's the USA? It's Indianapolis.

Speaker 10 (57:50):
You want the Indianapolis?

Speaker 26 (57:53):
What happened?

Speaker 36 (57:56):
Japanese submarine slammed two torpedoes into her side. Chiefs, it
was coming back the island of Tinian. The lady just
did over to the bomb, the Hiroshima bomb. Eleven hundred
men went into the water. This will went down in
twelve minutes. Didn't see the first shark for better half

(58:20):
an hour. Tiger thirteen foot of You know, oh, you
know that when you're in the water, chief, you tell
by looking from the door steal to the tail. Well,
we didn't know which our bomb. Mission had been so secret,
no distressed signal had been sent. They didn't even list as.

Speaker 10 (58:48):
Over do for a week.

Speaker 36 (58:51):
Very first light chief sharks come cruising til we formed
ourselves into tight groups, and it was kind of like
old squares in the battle like you see in the calendar,
like the Battle of Waterloo, and the idea was shot.
Comes the nearest man, man, man, He's start pounding, hollering
and screaming. Sometimes the shark go away. Sometimes he wouldn't

(59:16):
go away. Sometimes that shocky looks right into you, right
into your eyes. You know the thing about the shock
he's got lifeless eyes, black eyes.

Speaker 1 (59:28):
Look at the doll's eye when he comes at you.

Speaker 36 (59:32):
Doesn't seem to be living until he bites you, and
those black eyes rolled over.

Speaker 10 (59:39):
White, and then.

Speaker 36 (59:41):
Oh, then you hear that terrible, high pitched screaming. The
ocean turns red and despite of all the pounding and hollering,
and they all come in repeated pieces. Nobody Internet first
doorn lost a hundred men. I don't know how many sharks,

(01:00:08):
maybe a thousands. I don't know how many men, the
average six an hour. On Thursday morning, shef I bumped
into a friend of mine, Herbie Robinson, Cleveland baseball player,
Mosen's mate. I thought he was asleep. He still would
awake him up, bobbed up and down in the water.

Speaker 10 (01:00:32):
And it's like a kind of top.

Speaker 1 (01:00:35):
Up bended.

Speaker 13 (01:00:38):
Well.

Speaker 36 (01:00:40):
He'd been bitten in half to go the waist loom
the fifth day, mister Hooper Luck he'd been to her.
So she swunging low and he saw us, to the
young part of luck, younger than mister Hooper. Anyway, he
saw us, and he'd come in low. And three hours
later a big fat pby was down start to pick

(01:01:01):
us up. You know, that was the time I was
most frightened, waiting for my turn. I'll never put on
a life check it again. So eleven hundred men went in.
There were four hundred and sixty men come out of
the sharks took the rest. During the twenty ninth, nineteen forty. Anyway,

(01:01:27):
we delivered the bomb.

Speaker 6 (01:01:37):
I remembered dead silence in the theater. Everybody just their
eyes were bulging out of their heads. You couldn't hear
anyone cough or munch on a piece of popcorn. It
was just dead silence. He was so so captivating. No
one could have done that scene. No one other than

(01:01:59):
Robert Shaw could have done that scene. So anyway, there
you have it, fifty years ago this summer. It's amazing
to think that it was that long ago. And some
of the a lot of the locals that were in
the film are still around, and they lived down the vineyard.
I saw it interesting thing the other night with you
remember this scene with the two kids with the cardboard

(01:02:19):
fin Well, the one that says he made me do it,
Remember the cardboard fin at the Fourth of July beach
party or whatever. He is now the police chief and
Oak Bluffs. It's it's kind of they interviewed him and
they he said, yeah, you know, he says he's basically
now the chief. The kid that was in the movie.
But yeah, Steven Spielberg said, hey, let's give it local flavor,

(01:02:40):
and he opened up open auditions, open calls, and gave
made some average people movie stars. I mean people that
just the guy, the guy who comes out of the
shack with the pipe, he was the actual harpermaster. They said,
just walk out and just smile, that's all. And it's great,

(01:03:03):
wonderful film beginning, middle and end. Great story, well done.
And you could not find anyone to make it today
like that. It was the production Carl Gottlieb, the Zantic
brothers and of course Steven Spielberg, the actors. Everything, absolutely
beautiful piece of art. All right with that, I'm jeremy, lady,

(01:03:26):
this is standing ground, this is Mojo Fiber Radio, Jaws,
Happy fiftieth.

Speaker 25 (01:03:35):
Show.

Speaker 11 (01:03:59):
Are your son of a.

Speaker 36 (01:04:45):
I don't want no volunteers, I don't want no mates.
There's too many captains on this island. Ten thousand dollars
for me by myself for that. You get the head,
the tail, the whole damn thing.

Speaker 5 (01:05:00):
Thank you very much, mister quint.

Speaker 35 (01:05:03):
We'll we'll take it under advisement.

Speaker 36 (01:05:09):
It's mare, chief, ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 7 (01:05:20):
Oh the shark baby has such teeth dead and it shows.

Speaker 10 (01:05:27):
Then pearly white.

Speaker 37 (01:05:32):
Just a jack Knutey has old Margody babe, and it
keeps sitting a lot of sight.

Speaker 10 (01:05:43):
You know we're not sharp, but where is teeth?

Speaker 1 (01:05:47):
Big scarlet below.

Speaker 10 (01:05:51):
Start to sprint.

Speaker 36 (01:05:54):
Fancy gloves though were's old margit he babe?

Speaker 10 (01:06:00):
So there's never never a tracer.

Speaker 7 (01:06:06):
Nowa ooh Sunemona.

Speaker 37 (01:06:11):
Lies about it?

Speaker 36 (01:06:14):
Just us in life and someone sneaking around a corn.

Speaker 10 (01:06:23):
Gout that someone mac the life.

Speaker 1 (01:06:34):
Where just you'reitteny, just standing ground with Jeremy Lady.

Speaker 30 (01:06:44):
Are you or your loved ones suffering from illnesses such
as TDS also known as Trump arrangement syndrome. Do you
dismiss or deny the current issues facing our country such
as historic inflation, illegal immigration, corporate corruption, World War three escalations,
and the chronic disease epidemic.

Speaker 11 (01:07:01):
If so, you might be struggling from TDS.

Speaker 30 (01:07:05):
Introducing independence Independence allows you the freedom to finally think
independently once again, instead of believing everything you hear from
the mainstream media.

Speaker 11 (01:07:14):
Independence allows for constructive critical thinking.

Speaker 32 (01:07:17):
I used to hear people on the news say things
like Donald Trump and the movement he is encouraged are
a threat.

Speaker 11 (01:07:23):
To democracy, and I instantly believed it.

Speaker 32 (01:07:26):
With independence, I now realize the media is run by
the democrat elite, who are a corrupt oligarchy that sensors
free speech, silence as political opponents, supports forever worse, and
abandons democracy by anointing its candidates.

Speaker 11 (01:07:39):
Independence may not be for everyone. If you enjoy being
lied to.

Speaker 30 (01:07:42):
About your president's cognitive abilities, support or will in totalitarianism,
or are excited about communist physical policy.

Speaker 11 (01:07:50):
Independence may not be right for you.

Speaker 30 (01:07:52):
Common side effects of independence may include an awakening of
rational thought, successfully identifying propaganda, freedom of voice, loss of hatred,
anti narcissistic behavior, and love of democracy.

Speaker 33 (01:08:05):
I used to blindly hate whoever my party was running against.
I didn't care about facts or policy because I was
hopelessly indoctrinated. With independence, I'm much more interested in policies
that I'll hold democracy, and I truly care about the
health of our country and its citizens.

Speaker 30 (01:08:18):
Ask your doctor if independence is right for you, and
enjoy your freedoms once again.

Speaker 1 (01:08:27):
You're listening to Standing Ground with Jeremy lahey Well on
pet Sounds, which is generally considered an interpretation of the
phil Spector recording style, or utilizing instruments, combining say, pianos
with guitars to form a unique instrument.

Speaker 38 (01:08:43):
In other words, if you combine them electronically well enough,
you're not going to have a guitar or a piano.

Speaker 1 (01:08:48):
You're going to have piano guitar, a new instrument.

Speaker 38 (01:08:52):
You see in the forties and fifties arrangements will consider Okay,
here listen to that frend's horn, or let's listen to
this string section.

Speaker 1 (01:09:00):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 5 (01:09:00):
It was all a definite sound.

Speaker 38 (01:09:03):
There weren't combinations of sound, and with the advent of
phil Spector, we find sound combinations, which scientifically speaking is
it's a brilliant aspect of sound production. Also utilizing the voice,
where you have a one you used to hearing a
voice singing alone, well, in a lot.

Speaker 10 (01:09:22):
Of cases artists will put their voice.

Speaker 1 (01:09:24):
On again, singing the same notes over the same notes.

Speaker 31 (01:09:27):
Which is two voices sounding like one, only there's a
metal effect because you never can get the two notes
exactly the same, so they waver, so you get the
wave effect, which is very good if they have very
sweet sound.

Speaker 10 (01:09:41):
I love and the way the sunlight plays a partner.

Speaker 7 (01:10:00):
Through this, She's.

Speaker 37 (01:10:08):
Getting absolutely absolutely beautiful.

Speaker 7 (01:10:31):
I mean, another one gone. Brian Wilson hard to believe.

Speaker 6 (01:10:42):
Brian Wilson was a true musician, producer, uh, technician, whatever.
Brian Wilson brought into pop music things that had never
been heard before. He his mind did not operate like

(01:11:02):
an average person. I mean, well we all know. I
mean he had terrible mental health issues and drug addiction
and stuff like that, and he had auditory hallucinations whatever.
But beneath that, I mean, it's like you want to
almost after he died, you want to examine his brain.
He was able to create these textures and sounds and

(01:11:23):
unbelievable influence. And the thing is that a lot of
people talk about, and it is true, is the Beatles
and the Beach Boys were very very close together, and
what I referred to as a friendly game of tennis.
They were very influenced by each other. The Beach Boys

(01:11:49):
heard Rubber Soul and they went, oh shit, now what
are we going to do? Then they did pet sounds,
and then the Beatles went have you heard this? And
then pet sounds? And then the Beatles do Sergeant Pepper
And when you listen to Sergeant Pepper. A lot of
the basslines and a lot of the textures are very
similar to pet sounds, so they kind of helped each other.

(01:12:12):
But yeah, he truly was a genius. The tributes are
pouring in, still pouring in. He died last week, but
the tributes are still pouring in. It's funny after you die,
you really begin to people need to realize, you know
how great you were. And we always knew he was great,
but his influence, especially with studio technology, and he had

(01:12:34):
such a great, vast knowledge of an orchestra. He knew
his woods, his brass, his strings, he knew everything. He
knew how to really create magic.

Speaker 7 (01:12:44):
And his most popular song, where a lot of people say,
was God Only Knows, which I think is probably one
of the most beautiful songs ever written. A very very
simple melody, but just a beautiful piece. He really was.

Speaker 6 (01:12:57):
He was a real gem and and a real gift,
and he will be. He will be sorely missed. Brian
Wilson gone at age eighty two, but his enduring brand
of genius will always be with us, and people from
musicians here on out will they're influenced by him, but
they don't really know they are. We don't have this,

(01:13:19):
We don't have this kind of caliber of people anymore.
Brian Wilson is gone. I guess the last one is
merely McCartney. He's getting up there, don't. We don't have
this kind of creativity anymore because in Brian Wilson's time,
their time, they didn't have all the computer gadgets and

(01:13:41):
things like that. They might have to go and actually,
you know, take a take a mug and rub it
against a table to get a certain sound or whatever.
It's very very very interesting stuff. A lot of great documentaries. Now,
there was one on PBS the other night about the
Beach Boys. Great band, beautiful harmonies, just unbelieve. So with that,

(01:14:01):
I thought we'd end on that and a little uplifting
notes since we've been bumming the shit out of a
ramp last weekend. But anyway, we covered the whole gamut today,
didn't we iran the fiftieth anniversary of Jaws and the
death of Brian Wilson. Anyway, with that, I'm German Lay.
This is standing ground. This is Mojo Fiber Radio. Thanks
for tuning in. I'll be back again with you guys

(01:14:24):
next week. Brian Wilson, Rest in peace.

Speaker 1 (01:14:29):
Does music resonate with you? Did it resonate with you earlier?

Speaker 16 (01:14:32):
Did did the capacity to see the possibilities of how
sounds come together?

Speaker 5 (01:14:38):
I saw in the.

Speaker 38 (01:14:39):
Future a vision of music and a dream I had
one night and I forcedaw the future, and I was way, way,
way farther than the now.

Speaker 5 (01:14:48):
Even you know, I heard all kinds of celestial, heavenly sounds.

Speaker 2 (01:14:52):
You know.

Speaker 5 (01:14:53):
It just blew my mind. Yeah, and I think eventually
we're heading for heaven.

Speaker 16 (01:14:58):
I think, so.

Speaker 1 (01:15:00):
Are you heading for heaven? All of us have a chance.

Speaker 18 (01:15:21):

are stars who love you, you never need to Daddy.
