Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:12):
So election day in New Jersey, election day in Virginia,
election day in New York and California, they're going to
vote on Prop fifty to redistrict something that I think
the Republicans are trying to put on.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
A shelf here moving the special session.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Oh no, no, we'll get to it when we get
to it's not actually moving it. It's just not addressing
it with any level of importance. That's what it looks like.
And for a while yesterday I'm like, are they are
they puntings us over? You know, you win some, you
lose some. I spend some more time on it.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
I'll give you my thoughts.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Coming up to Tony Katz ninety three WIBC, Good morning,
What is going down? President Trump endorsing Andrew Cuomo, former
mayor of New York, saying, basically, you have to guys,
look at mam Donnie.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
I mean, come on, come on. That's that's basically what
Donald Trump said.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
It's a pretty ugly world where you have to vote
for Andrew Cuomo for things to be better.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
He killed grandma, see one guy.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
We know what he did in the past with mom Donnie.
We know what he's gonna do in the future. Either way,
Grandma's going down. That's that is basically the New York moment.
And Curtis Sleewa the Republican's like what about me? And
everyone's saying what about you? I mean, that is the reality.

(01:48):
If you take a look at the latest polling. If
Curtis Slee what was not in the race? Cuomo wins this. No,
I don't like Andrew Cuomo.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
Andrew Cuomo is a disgusting human being.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
And only in New York does a guy like him
get a second act. Also, only going up against someone
as absolutely horrific as Mom, Donnie.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
Now you say to me, horrific, Tony, what has he done? Well?

Speaker 1 (02:12):
I think people who advocate defunding the police are pretty horrific.
I think people who hang around with those on the
terror watch list and engage in the levels of bigotry
that they do are pretty horrific. I think he himself,
in his own comments, pretty horrific. I think this idea
of well, we're gonna own all the grocery stores. No,

(02:33):
they're not gonna own all the grocery stores, Tony, They're
just gonna have city run bodegas.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Well that's gonna go great. That's gonna go.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
Who is going to stop them from being robbed when
he defunds the police.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
You know what, I don't need to do anymore. I
think I'm well covered on the subject.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
You've got the New Jersey governor race, you have the
Virginia governor race, and of course Prop fifty in California.
These are the big four that people will be watching for.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
I might live stream it tonight.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
I might just throw on a camera and put my
feet up, grab a bourbon and just watch the insanity.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
Probably, so look for that.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
I'll share on the social media's at at tonycats dot com.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
If I'm doing it, maybe you'll join.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
Maybe you'll just want to see the end of a
great city too well.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
New York has been great for a long time.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
The end of a once great city, the end of
a city where Frankndino used to hang out, like it'll
be just that, and then we'll plan our trips to
go now before it all collapses, and.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
It'll be good.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Meanwhile, we have to worry about the collapse of Indianapolis,
which is not happening today. But how we vote matters greatly,
and every time a communist like Mom Donnie wins. A
communist like Jesse Brown.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
Goes ooh, what's possible.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
Yeah, Tony Katz ninety three WIBC, Good morning, be honest
with you.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
The country is moving towards Trump. I mean these polls
that come out and show them not doing well. I
don't buy that.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
It's a weird world when I see a conversation between
Chris Matthews and Charlie Rose and I'm like, I went
back in time, clearly, clearly I have been dreaming and
it's still like, I don't know, two thousand and six
or something like that. But it was interesting to hear

(04:29):
Chris Matthews say the country's moving towards the polls, and
I don't buy that they show him not doing well.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
I think that happens to be accurate.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
I think that the conversations about the economy are real.
And I still think the momentum is with and the
feeling is that their life has better opportunity with Trump.

(05:06):
That's reality. I think that's a large scale reality. Did
I say hello, I'll say hello later. Let me keep going.
There's also a quick story out of the in the The
Star that I want to get to, because gosh, there

(05:30):
are ways to get things wrong, and then there are
really ways to get things wrong, and this is just
one of those really really really wrong ways to get
things wrong.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
I will get that done in a minute.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
I was told by those people who dislike Donald Trump
that he is a king, a king, I say, And
he has princely or kingly purple garb and has a
crown and walks around with a scepter and says everyone
must do my bidding.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
And says, oh wait, I'm sorry. The court said I
can't do that.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
Okay, well listen, go back to the courts and let's
see if we can win over there.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
Wait now on the court said I can't do this
over here.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
All right, we won't do that. We'll do this thing
over here. As far as kings go, Donald Trump sucks.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
Not a king.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
The embarrassment in which the left should engage for making
that kind of declaration is unknowable to normal people like
you and I. But they don't have any embarrassment. They
don't care what they said. This much is true. This
is the Indiana Democratic Party as a whole. They do
not care what it is they said.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
President Trump.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Is now going to provide the administration will provide partial
November snap benefits.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
That's food stamps. Why is this?

Speaker 1 (06:55):
I thought they only had a certain amount of money
in there. There is no mechanism for them being able
to spend just a certain amount of money. It's either
funded or it's not. It's a binary condition. Now we're hearing, well,
you've got this money, so put it out there. They're
saying they're not going to tap other funds to fill
the gap.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
This is what we've got left in the program. This
is what we're going to spend.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
Now what king does that? I'm not doing it. The
court ordered it. Now I'm doing it. What king does that?
Can we put an end to the nonsense? I want
you to laugh at people who to say it.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
I want you to call them liars.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
That includes four weeks from now your Thanksgiving table, and
so we are clear, so we can get it done
now before you can't rescind an invitation.

Speaker 2 (07:48):
Maybe there are some people who shouldn't be at your
Thanksgiving table.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
Now. I have advocated this for years, this idea that
certainly there's the idea that you should be able to
get along with people, even if you politically disagree with them.
You should be able to talk to them, including members
of family, but some people you can't. Why do you
suffer through Thanksgiving? Why do you suffer through when that

(08:12):
ridiculous leftist uncle could say anything they want and everyone
looks at it says, just let them be, Let it be,
don't worry about it that that ridiculous cousin and her shrieking.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
Just let it be. Just let it be. You know
she's all alone. Just let it be.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
No, No, I think you should be surrounded by the
people you love, the people who actually like you, or
give yourself a break and step away. This year you
caught a cold. No, no, that would be lying. I
don't want to be around you this year. You're just
too nasty to be around. Maybe I'll have strength for

(08:51):
it next year.

Speaker 2 (08:52):
There you go. Oh, I'm a huge believer in this.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
Love yourself enough not to spend a day being abused
by people who want to abuse you, an entire political
party that is willing to lie on every level. No Kings,
stop talking, no Kings, no blank.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Man.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
The things you can't say on radio, huh, because that
would have been a good one right there.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
So there will be partial benefits.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
And when are we going to start talking about the
forty million people on SNAP, which is the Supplemental Nutrition
Assistance program. When are we going to discuss how many
illegal immigrants are getting these benefits and when it stops?
So you think people should starve? I think Americans should
take care of Americans. I think Americans should take care
of themselves. You don't have changes to programs unless you

(09:50):
have changes to programs. And I'm sick and tired of
the progressive trying to guilt every day Americans were working hard,
sometimes two jobs, into giving up more of their money
for their heart I don't care about your heart strings.
I care about the heart strings of hardworking Americans and
those people who want to be Americans.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
My name is Tony Katz. Can I help you? See?
I told you I introduced myself later.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
President Trump is also going to hit the cartels, which
I agree with. The story from NBC News is that
there's a new mission in Mexico against cartels. According to
multiple officials, planning for this mission possibly the sending of

(10:33):
troops and intel officers to Mexico to target drug cartels. Now,
this goes along with what we're seeing with Venezuela and
the drug boats and whether or not there is indeed
an engagement happening and act of war happening, which would
require Congress. It requires Congress. Leave that to the side,

(10:55):
just for a moment. Is President Trump actually engaging a
war in Mexico. We have said on this show that
if the way to handle the cartels is to move
ten miles into Mexico, create a DMZ style situation like
betraying North and South Korea, well then that's what.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
Has to get done. Who's in charge?

Speaker 1 (11:21):
The idea that the cartel is in charge is radical,
And yet what we're told by far too many is
what are you going to do?

Speaker 2 (11:29):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (11:29):
Well, what can you do? There are many things you
can do. You just have to be willing to do them.
And if Mexico doesn't like it, that's Claudia Scheinbaum's problem.
She is the president of Mexico. That's her problem. Didn't
ask if you liked it?

Speaker 2 (11:45):
Don't care?

Speaker 1 (11:47):
What is this constant conversation about caring about things that.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
Don't matter.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
Mexico's feelings on how we deal with cartels that they
can't handle.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
Don't care.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
But cartel's not being in business or at least not
bothering Americans.

Speaker 2 (12:06):
Let them go.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
Bother Chinese nationals. Let them go bother the whole of
South America. I wish they didn't. I wish they were
just gone. Why in the world do we have to
be bothered with this idea of well, what are you
going to do?

Speaker 2 (12:21):
I think you can do a lot.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
And maybe we should be very aggressive, and maybe we
should be looking at cartels as an invading force, and
maybe we should figure out exactly how tough our military
is with a little bit of practice. That's right, Alan
Iverson practice.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
Just a theory.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
The breaking news of former Vice President Dick Cheney dead
at the age of eighty four.

Speaker 2 (12:52):
Tony Katz ninety three WIBC, good morning, good to be
with you.

Speaker 1 (13:00):
Forty six the vice presidents of the United States passed
away last night, according to the statement, complications of pneumonia,
cardiac and vascular disease. Served as Vice president to George W.
Bush two thousand and one to two thousand and nine.
I'm gonna leave it to others to engage their chainey

(13:21):
hate because it's gonna happen. It's just not my interest
or not my want. I'll let other people do what
it is that other people do. We've got election day
going on across the country, not every spot of the country.

Speaker 2 (13:43):
You have this off year election.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
The vote turnout so far in New York show being
much higher than in years past.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
There it was this. Let me see if I can
find this here.

Speaker 1 (14:05):
It seems that the opinion pages of The Indie Star
has been different as of late, and I'm not one
hundred percent sure why that is. It could be the
addition of this guy, Jacob Stewart, who's at least writing opinions,

(14:27):
whether I agree or disagree, they are indeed opinions. Then
there's the standard stuff. There is Mitch Gore writing in
the Indie Star. He is a state representative. My GOP

(14:48):
colleagues whisper they're disgusted but won't stand up to Trump.
It's this kind of nonsense That is what I've come
to expect from the Indie Star. When I see things
that are different, at least go okay, interesting, I like that,
or at least that's interesting, or at least there's a
thought there. And right now the thoughts seems to be

(15:10):
coming from this guy, Jacob Stewart.

Speaker 2 (15:12):
You know, the thought of, hey, why don't we take
over our.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
Own utilities and why don't we have Indianapolis run aees
which is an absolutely awful IDEA government can't run a
power company, This government can't plow roads.

Speaker 2 (15:28):
What are we discussing? My GOP colleagues whisper their disgust.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
But won't stand up to Trump. I haven't even gotten
past the headline show me where the Democrats say it's
wrong to mutilate children and boys are not girls.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
Why won't you stand up for children?

Speaker 1 (15:53):
I mean, if we're all about the standing up to Trump,
what are you standing up for? Where is the Democratic
Party to say we are not communists? Where are you
to stand up dossarnmm, Dannie know he's the future of
the party. Where are the Democrats in Indiana who stand

(16:16):
up and say, you know what, this anti semitism really
is a problem coming from Ilhana mar and Rashida Talib
and the fact that Andre Carson befriends Lewis Farakhan.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
Where are you representative? Gore?

Speaker 1 (16:31):
The problem with your piece, which I admittedly just read
the headline just came across, is that it is the
same nonsensical problem that always comes across.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
It is what the Indie Star is known for.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
But you want to talk about not standing up an
entire political party that looks at rank outright in saying
vicious bigotry and goes humph, Trump bad.

Speaker 2 (17:07):
Right now, the political.

Speaker 1 (17:08):
Right is in a serious place of divide regarding Tucker Carlson,
this interview with Nick Fuentes and this insane defense by
Kevin Roberts of Heritage, where I think it's pretty clear
he didn't even know what he was talking about. That's
the robust debate, that's the real argument. And sadly, look

(17:29):
who we're having to argue against actual insane bigotry of
Fuentes and the cover given by Tucker Carlson and Candice
Owens and sadly, way too many others. Where are you
you want to argue there's a disgust for Trump and
people don't stand up.

Speaker 2 (17:50):
Okay, you go right ahead.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
But the idea that it would give you any level
of moral authority is laughable. If it wasn't so discuss
By the way, are Indiana Republicans they're always somewhat disgusted.
You should see how disgusted Hoosiers are with them. That
would blow your mind. But it's this kind of nonsense.

(18:20):
This is a nonsense nonsense story. This is basically a
process story that's been written for the last ten years.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
You're boring.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
And I have no reason to think that the Indian
Star wouldn't publish it just for that. They are publishing
some other stuff lately, which is interesting. But this representative Gore, Honey,
this doesn't move the needle. This isn't even interesting. And

(18:53):
if you're gonna start pointing fingers out how one should
stand up. I've got all the mirrors for you, man,
how many do you want and where do you want
them delivered? So is is redistricting over this move from
Senator Bray to say, you know what, we're not gonna

(19:19):
We're not gonna have the special session there. You know,
we're not gonna start November. We'll just we'll hold off
until December. And that way, you know, we'll already have
the day on November eighteenth, right, you know, and then
get everything set and then we'll just we'll just lead
it into that so it'll cost taxpayers.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
Lest that's a good ideas.

Speaker 1 (19:43):
That's punting, right, That is saying, hey, maybe everybody will
forget about this. That's what they're saying, right, Tony Katz,
that's me Tony Katz at ninety three WIBC, Good Morning,
could to be with you. The scheduling plan will save
taxpayer money and lawmakers will still debate time sensitive legislative action. Remember,

(20:06):
this special session is not just about redistricting. The special
session is about adjusting who's your tax code, Indiana tax
code so it matches up with federal code. I looked
at this, I heard this, and I said, oh, it's over.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
It's over.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
This is about pushing it to the side. That was
my first take on this. Redistricting will not come to
the state of Indiana. Of course, they're voting on Prop
fifty right now in California and it will probably go
through and they will remove five Republican seats. And you
know what the Democrats here in Indiana are going to say, well, good,

(20:51):
you see that had to happen. Nope, nope, there's no
ideological through line whatsoever.

Speaker 2 (20:59):
There's no consistent and see at all.

Speaker 1 (21:02):
Well, you see if Texas hadn't Texas is Texas, then
California open their big mouth. That's when I said, well,
let's redistrict. So California is going to do it, and
I don't know what Indiana is going to do at all. Actually,
I have no idea what it is that they're going
to do here. Because of the calendar alignment that's agreed

(21:23):
to Todd Houston, starting the regular session early would be
the most cost effective and efficient way to address the
governor's call for a special session. Our goal is to
avoid any added session related costs, and we will continue
to look for ways to save taxpayer dollars as we
work through and finalize the schedule.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
Do they have the votes?

Speaker 1 (21:46):
That is an absolutely fantastic question, because we keep hearing
from alleged.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
Sources that the Senate does the Senate Republicans do not
have the votes. You don't have the boots, you don't
have the vote.

Speaker 3 (22:11):
You've got I need refreshionble, you don't have the votes.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
I am more and more of the opinion that people
are just making things up and putting it out there,
more than I ever believe their their inside sources or
what it.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
Is they have to say.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
I just think they're they're they're desperate to to get
a click and not they don't actually have it.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
I'm not sure.

Speaker 1 (22:36):
I'm not sure if the Republicans have the votes for
redissecting or not. But When I saw this move, I said, hmn, okay,
it's over. Then I spent a little more time working
through it, walking myself through it, and said.

Speaker 2 (22:55):
Okay, maybe it's not.

Speaker 1 (22:58):
Maybe this is just because you had time within a
special session, right you said, okay, this would work better
to achieve a goal. Maybe it's more time to convince
some people. Maybe this still exists. So I'm fifty to fifty.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
On it at the moment.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
On where they're going to be with redistricting organization days
November eighteenth, they're going to move this to the beginning
of December.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
I could equally be shown that this is going to
happen as I can be shown that this is going to.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
Be forgotten about. We're waiting and seeing people keep contacting
your local officials. Matt Behar has traffic. We look for
a high of sixty seven and then temperatures drop on Thursday,
partly Claudie with highs near fifty eight. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
that's all great. But what are we getting for Thanksgiving?

(23:47):
That's right, I want before week early forecast. I'm sorry,
did you just sigh in my general direction? Yes?

Speaker 2 (24:03):
And why.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
I'm gonna I can't give you a forecast, an accurate
forecast four weeks out.

Speaker 2 (24:09):
Oh I'm sorry. I thought this is America. I thought
you were a professional. My mistake. Can you tell me
what our podcast is going to be about?

Speaker 4 (24:20):
Hmmm?

Speaker 1 (24:25):
See see listen, you got one or the other, but
you can't have both, Hastings.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
That's that's where we're at.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
And I'm telling you right now, Dewan McCoy, the owner
of Circle City Broadcasting, which is just purchased w r TV,
is chopping at the bit. He wants to write you
a giant check. Well, be a giant check and you'll
get something. But the moral of the story it was,
we're in this together, Tara Hastings. Do you want to
do the show or not?

Speaker 2 (24:51):
Yeah, don't want to do the show.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
Let's do it. Let's uh yeah, let's see a little
you know, a little effort. Well, it's not going to
be about forecasting four weeks out for Thanksgiving in early November.
Oh so we're going to be like everybody else. Sure, Okay,

(25:14):
it's Tarah Hastings everybody. She doesn't want you to enjoy
Thanksgiving now, Nope, she's upset she didn't get the invite.
You do Thanksgiving at home, right with the little ones.

Speaker 2 (25:26):
You do it. You do it all at home and
everyone comes to you. Yes. Right.

Speaker 1 (25:30):
Do you like it that way or would you rather
that everybody just stayed away and you could be alone?

Speaker 5 (25:36):
No? I like I like having family and friends over
for Thanksgiving.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
Yes, I love it.

Speaker 2 (25:44):
I was just checking. We have like twenty people coming plus.
Oh wow, yeah, it's a big year. It's a big year.
We don't really do that. No, we don't really.

Speaker 6 (25:55):
Do you have a brisket? Oh yeah, okay, we don't
do the We don't really do the turkey.

Speaker 1 (26:01):
We do it. I like ham better, yes, yes, so
does my Rabbi, but I seem to avoid it the brisket,
and I have now and the videos out. This oil
is turkey fryar from Tarboil, which is not a sponsor.
It's basically it's basically like a stationary roach history. I

(26:21):
don't even know how to describe it except to say
I did a practice run with a six pound chicken
this weekend and it was fantastic. So we're doing a
like fifteen pound turkey in that, and then we'll do
a brisket and then my wife, being as Italian as
she is, eggplant parm.

Speaker 2 (26:39):
Oh. Okay, so you get a little bit of everything there.
There is a lot of everything going on. Okay, there's
a lot.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
And then, of course, over in the corner sushi. We're
very we're very, very very multicultural. Okay, the turkey will
be Tandori style, of course.

Speaker 2 (26:57):
And then and then I don't I'm not sure I believe.
I believe.

Speaker 1 (27:02):
We also have some ramen at the table. So yeah,
we're a little bit of everything everywhere all the time.

Speaker 2 (27:07):
Right, it be good. I like it, it'd be good.
I would have invited you, but you're but you're busy
with the family you're doing. I am busy. Yes, yes,
I invited Matt Bear and he said no. Once again.
Once again, Matt par said no. He's like, got I
don't need this in my life.

Speaker 6 (27:26):
I did not say no.

Speaker 3 (27:28):
I said I have to work, thank you very much.

Speaker 2 (27:30):
He didn't say yes.

Speaker 6 (27:31):
I did say yes, but I didn't say no. It
wasn't like, no, Tony, I'm not going to your house
for Thanksgiving.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
See see what he said, He's not coming to my
house with Thanksgiving.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
That's just not what you just said. It right there,
everybody heard it. It was never thus deep breaths Tara Hayes. Things.
I have to I have to go now, I have to.
I have to find somebody to fill the mack Bear seat.
Oh yes, yes, yes, it was extra cushioned.

Speaker 1 (28:00):

American standard heating leather center. Damn, that was rude. I apologize.

That's what I figured. You got. You got, you got
the favorite mother in law and everything else. You got
things going on.

Maybe we can all come to your house.

Speaker 2 (28:30):
You got it. First of all, you're more than welcome.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
I have no issue with this, but but I like,
I don't talk about your stuff.

Speaker 2 (28:36):
But I figured you were busy.

Speaker 3 (28:38):
Yeah, I'm probably going to be busy. That's right, right.
I'll need one cook in the turkey this year. This year, wait,
you're wedding, I'll be the one. Because we're so preoccupied,
I'll probably be the one cooking the turkey this year.

Speaker 2 (28:52):
Do you know how to cook a turkey? No?

Speaker 3 (28:54):
I don't know how to cook the basics?

Speaker 2 (28:56):
Do you want me to send the turkey? First of all, Tony.

Speaker 1 (28:59):
KATZIBC, good morning, Good to be with you.

Speaker 2 (29:02):
Do you want me to send you a turkey? I
will take that off your plate and will do it.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
Who in Indianapolis does turkeys? That could be delivered to
producer Carl, So you just put it in the in
the oven. You let us know Twitter x Tony Kats
toniatonycats dot com. I'll order a turkey right now for you.
I just figured the man's got a lot going on.
I'm not allowed to say because I don't know everything,

(29:32):
and so I will get you a turkey.

Speaker 2 (29:34):
I will make that happen for you. Done and done.

Speaker 3 (29:38):
I'm gonna have to ask the missus, missus showbiz for that.

Speaker 1 (29:41):
Geez, missus Showbuzin is going to say, absolutely, take the
man's turkey, not even a question. Good gosh, Denny's is
getting acquired. I could send you to Denny's, but they're
being taken private. The restaurant chain being taken private a
group of investors coming in six hundred and twenty million dollars,

(30:02):
which includes the debt. It's now going to be purchased
by a private equity company, So now how do you
run that? It's a private equity company and a group
that is one of Denny's largest franchisees.

Speaker 2 (30:20):
I know there's one in Westfield. I don't know the
last time I've been to a Denny's.

Speaker 1 (30:25):
I'm not anti Denny's, right, Moon's over My Hammy saved
a lot of us in a lot of different places.
I'm just wondering, does anybody go to Denny's as a Oh,
that sounds great. What is the moment in today's world
where someone's like Denny's, let's go make that happen. I
am I am mostly curious about who those people are.

Speaker 2 (30:51):
If you could let me know, that would be great.

Speaker 1 (30:53):

Speaker 2 (32:48):
The popcorn moment, Let's go, Let's go, Let's go, let's go.
It's a story you need to hear to believe.

Speaker 1 (32:54):
Then grab your popcorn because there is more. I start
with a story that you'll see on the show sheet
at Tony Katz dot com. That Halloween weekend when it
comes to box office, the worst weekend of the year,

(33:18):
the worst Halloween weekend in thirty two years, and the
worst October in three decades. This according to John Nolty
over at Bright Part Nolty's been covering this stuff for decades, and.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
Every single movie is just nonsense.

Speaker 1 (33:41):
Total weekend revenue came in at forty nine point eight
million dollars. We're used to hearing about movies making that
in one weekend, just one movie, all of them brought
in nothing. Now, certainly we can argue that it's possible

(34:05):
that there were movies that didn't connect and no one
cared about, you know, the.

Speaker 2 (34:09):
Springsteen movie they made.

Speaker 1 (34:13):
The vast majority of people weren't interested in some movie
a biopic about Springsteen. Right, you want to talk about
K pop demon hunters. It's a very small segment of
the population that's really going to be down for that.

(34:35):
They're just not making good movies, they're not telling good stories.
They're trying to resurrect old properties. It's kind of valueless. Then,
of course, it's what they have done to movies, woke
this and woke that, and messaged this and beat you
over the head that why can't you just be interesting,
create good characters, tell a good story.

Speaker 2 (34:57):
That's all you have to do.

Speaker 1 (35:01):
It seems that some people in Hollywood are getting this message.
It isn't about politics, It's about just making good stuff.
Jennifer Lawrence is doing an interview with The New York Times,
and Jennifer Lawrence says, the.

Speaker 5 (35:17):
Following celebrities do not make a difference whatsoever on who
people vote for, and so then what am I doing?

Speaker 2 (35:26):
I don't want.

Speaker 5 (35:28):
To start turning people off to films and to art
that could change consciousness or change the world because they
don't like my political opinions.

Speaker 1 (35:40):
So change consciousness or change the world could be seen
as I would like for my movies to make money
so I can keep making movies, and one could could
I would, I would ask you the question.

Speaker 2 (35:52):
I didn't catch all interview. I just got this this
clip right here.

Speaker 1 (35:55):
I will wonder if if being a parent has changed
you at all, just in terms of analyzed philosophy, because
it is true that being a parent does change people.
I don't think there's any question about that, and so
I'd be curious if she felt that in her case,
the idea that celebrities don't influence elections, that's not true.

Speaker 2 (36:21):
That isn't true.

Speaker 1 (36:23):
The question is what is the change, and then what
is the reaction. I think it's easy to say that
if Taylor Swift says, hey, do X, with all the
fan base that she has, it could have an effect.
Hold on, I know what you're gonna say about Trump.
That is not the argument. I am saying that there

(36:46):
is no doubt if she came out and said X,
it could have an effect because the.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
Same people are saying, well, she wasn't a fan of Trump,
and Trump said that she hates Tayler Swift, and look
what happens. Ah, she fell apart and lost followers.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
And if she had said and support Donald Trump, we'd
be cheering it. So let's not think and you'd be like, oh,
that's good. Now, these young people know that Trump's okay.
So let's not do that to ourselves. Let's at least
honestly address the fact that, yes, celebrity.

Speaker 2 (37:16):
Can influence things.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
As a matter of fact, I think history has shown
us with examples that celebrity does influence things. Take a
look at us culturally not influenced by celebrity. We played
Billie Eilish last week saying, hey, billionaires, why are you billionaires?

Speaker 2 (37:34):
Give away your money? You're a millionaire a Billie Eilish,
why don't you give away your money? Hey, why are
you looking at me? That's probably what she would say.

Speaker 1 (37:42):
So these things do have an effect because bad ideas
do carry this way, and they do carry through celebrity.

Speaker 2 (37:48):
What I find interesting here is that.

Speaker 1 (37:54):
Her argument is incorrect, but her end, the end result.

Speaker 2 (38:01):
Of her arguments, I think is accurate. Let me just go.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
About making film, let more people see it.

Speaker 2 (38:10):
It will make more money, and.

Speaker 1 (38:11):
It's better the idea that's going to affect the world
can't answer that the idea that's going to affect her
pocketbook and get other people paid or make in the
movie absolutely true, So why would you get in the
way of it. So her discussion of her analysis, I
think is misguided. I think the end result of her analysis,

(38:35):
I'm not talking politics anymore, is probably a very smart play.

Speaker 2 (38:42):
It's weird when you get that right.

Speaker 1 (38:46):
Her explanation is absolutely incorrect that I would say in
some cases just a flat out lie.

Speaker 2 (38:53):
But the end.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
Result, yeah, that's probably the right thing to do. Pravisimo,
go make good film. That's what I say today. On
the Marketplace, it's another example of who in the world
took this photo and why. Tony Katz ninety three WIBC,

(39:16):
Good morning, Good to be with you. During downtime, clearing
my head, getting ready for what's next on the show,
I find myself on Facebook marketplace cool stuff, odd stuff,
where it stuff, strange stuff.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
It is all there.

Speaker 1 (39:28):
The Marketplace segment brought to you by Indiana Unclaimed dot Gov.
It's your cash, Go get it Indiana Unclaimed dot Gov
fast easy, free to use. Your money is just sitting there,
and I think it should be in your pocket and
not with the Attorney General's office.

Speaker 2 (39:44):
So stop leaving it with the Attorney general.

Speaker 1 (39:47):
Go to Indiana Unclaimed dot gov and get your cash.
Live streaming on YouTube, you can watch this happen myself.
There's Matt bar There's producer Carl YouTube dot com slash wibc.

Speaker 2 (39:59):
Matt.

Speaker 1 (39:59):
I know you like to be comfortable there in the
studio very and you like to be comfortable at home. Yes,
very comfortable as you sit there with your eight bowls
of oatmeal and you just get it all over yourself.

Speaker 3 (40:09):
Yeah, it's it's bad, right.

Speaker 2 (40:11):
Uh? Do you have like a recliner at home? No? No,
would you silly? Would would you like one? Yes?

Speaker 3 (40:18):
Of course I would.

Speaker 1 (40:19):
Okay, So over there in Greenwood they are selling a
lazy boy leather recliner.

Speaker 2 (40:25):
But it's not just any lazy boy leather recliner. Oh no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 3 (40:29):
It's got a woman in it it.

Speaker 1 (40:30):
First of all, settle sorry, projecting much?

Speaker 2 (40:35):
Oh the picture. Yeah, we'll get to that in a second.
It is a petite lazy boy leather reclining chair.

Speaker 6 (40:43):
That petit It means it's extra small and if you're
five foot tall you can't sit in it, right.

Speaker 1 (40:48):
So this person's five feet tall, says the size is perfect.
Now you you are, you're five feet tall right.

Speaker 6 (40:53):
About five something nine nine?

Speaker 2 (40:55):
Are you five nine?

Speaker 1 (40:57):
Well, ladies, if we wait a little bit to be
five to eleven, This petite size lazy boy reclining chair
is used. But considering it is it is decades old,
it is an excellent good condition.

Speaker 2 (41:13):
Hold on a second, excellent good condition.

Speaker 1 (41:18):
There's a difference in the world of Ourwellian doublespeak even there, like,
I don't know what she said.

Speaker 2 (41:24):
That's excellent. Leather has been well cared for.

Speaker 1 (41:28):
With age, the leather has become a nice, smooth and
softer feel.

Speaker 3 (41:32):
Oh that's sweet, right, yeah.

Speaker 1 (41:34):
You know who else says that? Jason Hammer You you
would need to pick this up yourself. Here's the story.
In the picture there is a woman wearing jeans and
like a zip up sweater and socks, and her shoes
are there, And so when you.

Speaker 2 (41:54):
First look at the picture you don't know what's happening.

Speaker 1 (41:57):
Is the chair for sale is the cable and chairs
in the back for sales.

Speaker 2 (42:01):
The rug for sale is the woman for sale. No.

Speaker 1 (42:05):
In the ad it reads Korean Uma not included, not
being an expert.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
I'm going to assume that uma is the word for grandmother.
Would I be right about that? That's beautiful? Or is
it mom? Yeah, it's mom, it's I believe that it
is mom. Is the right use the word?

Speaker 1 (42:30):
If I've got it wrong, someone tell me why would
you allow this picture to be on there?

Speaker 2 (42:36):
Hey? Mom, sit in the chair and.

Speaker 1 (42:38):
I'm gonna take pictures of you and that way people
will know, like what sized body fixing this?

Speaker 6 (42:44):
I do know she looks really comfortable, So maybe this
is a selling device be comfortable in the chair and
people buy the chair.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
I think she looks so comfortable. I don't know why
they're selling it on the Rumah.

Speaker 6 (42:53):
Well, I feel bad about buying it because she loves
his chair. I mean I feel bad about.

Speaker 2 (42:57):
Buying it if she doesn't come with it.

Speaker 6 (43:01):
I could use an uma by by your recliner by
a grandmother.

Speaker 2 (43:07):
How beautiful this is?

Speaker 1 (43:08):
This is the first time I have ever seen a
post where it said grandma or mom not included.

Speaker 6 (43:16):
Uh it fits in the back of my mo's the
c x five, so they you throw the seats out.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
You get that in the ad like this is this?
This ad has everything and I don't I don't know
this woman. I don't know this uma. I'm vouching for
this chair. Higher right, this is in. It's one hundred dollars,
my bear, you interview out.

Speaker 6 (43:36):
I'm not going to get anything, including food, let alone
to recline or no, I'm not gonna go pick it up.

Speaker 3 (43:42):
But you can have your own uma.

Speaker 2 (43:45):
It does sound for you.

Speaker 6 (43:46):
It sounds awesome to have a living grandmother.

Speaker 2 (43:49):
You would feed you the oatmeal.

Speaker 6 (43:51):
I would love to have a living grandmother. Okay, that
would be stupendous. But I I don't know this woman.
Maybe if we had coffee first and be like, yeah,
you can be my grandma over sure, come on, come
on over, yeah, bring you.

Speaker 1 (44:04):
If uma does not mean mean mother or grandmother, someone
tell me what it means. It's I'm just reading what's here?
Korean uma not included.

Speaker 3 (44:13):
It's not derogatory.

Speaker 1 (44:14):
No, no, no, I want definitions, and I'm not gonna
trust ai.

Speaker 6 (44:22):
Uma means missile, it does.

Speaker 2 (44:26):
Korean missile not included. Wow, Sorry, that's a Kim jong
un reference.

Speaker 3 (44:32):
Ladies, I'm here all week, tony.

Speaker 2 (44:35):
Oh are you are you here all week? No?

Speaker 3 (44:38):
I'm out Friday. Actually, Wow, I'm gone Friday.

Speaker 2 (44:43):
Yes, we'll tell. We'll tell everybody that Friday was pre planned.
Sounds great. It's not like it's gonna take two and
a half days to come up with a strategy to
deal with that reference. I just want everybody to know
it wasn't to me. I was above board the whole thing.
But Matt Bear is quite literally dropping bombs.

Speaker 1 (45:09):
God, sometimes I realize this show is really better than
everything else South.

Speaker 2 (45:15):
It just defiantly is. Nobody stands a chance.

Speaker 1 (45:21):
I don't know what's happening on TTS right now, but
just stop talking.

Speaker 2 (45:24):
You've got nothing.

Speaker 6 (45:25):
They don't even know the marketplace.

Speaker 3 (45:29):
They don't even know what Facebook is.

Speaker 2 (45:31):
They ain't talking about Uma.

Speaker 1 (45:36):
Yeah, someone now in the chat room is sharing with
me what it means in Japanese. But that's that's not
what we're talking, literally, says Korean.

Speaker 2 (45:46):
Somebody has to give us the lesson. We'll give you
the time. Somebody explain it to me.

Speaker 6 (45:53):
Japan are two different countries, Yes they are.

Speaker 1 (45:55):
Thank you, Thank you very very very much, boom So,
someone let me know what the word means and we'll
share it right here.

Speaker 2 (46:06):
Tony Katz.

Speaker 1 (46:06):
By the way, everything in the marketplace while we still
have a sponsor is up at WIBC dot com. Tony Katz,
ninety three WIBC, Good morning. So we'll be watching this
election day, what happens and what's going on New York,
New Jersey, Virginia, in California with Prop fifty because they're

(46:29):
going to show you how you do redistricting. Tony Katz,
Tony Katz today, Good to be with you. I'm curious
if anybody in the Indiana Democratic Party is opposed to
what California is doing. Californias admittedly engage in retribution against Texas.
I'm curious if whether or not we think this is

(46:50):
right or wrong. I cannot wait to hear no answer
from them whatsoever, because we're never going to hear an
answer from them whatsoever. And I'm not so sure that
redistricting is going to take place.

Speaker 2 (47:10):
In Indiana.

Speaker 1 (47:12):
This move where Hey Braun calls a special session and
the Senate says, you know what, we'll give it a
couple of weeks, which they are entitled to do, and
we'll make it part of the session. Right, We've got
what is an organization day on November eighteenth, and so
we'll just make it part of the session, and it'll
save people money, right, It'll save the taxpayer money, and

(47:36):
that's what matters. I'm wondering if they're just trying to
move the thing out all together, not have it discussed.

Speaker 2 (47:44):
But what must remain is the conversation about what it
means to do the job.

Speaker 1 (47:54):
If the Republican Party says that this gets in the
way of governing, I would like to know what they
mean by governing. What is it that they actually want.
What level of leadership is then engaged? And can you
show me where now you think that this is just, oh,

(48:15):
it's another attack on the Republican Party.

Speaker 2 (48:18):
I want to know.

Speaker 1 (48:22):
Where we are in a real conversation about the future
of this state and the future of our country, because
we just string is about the future of our country
and the idea that somehow we shouldn't be engaged in
that is nonsense. But there's a larger conversation about the

(48:42):
very idea of leadership. When I moved here, one of
the things that I was told that I thought was
a very interesting bit of data was that hoosiers are
not always the first to make the move. When they
make the move, they actually make it best it has
been thought about more, it has been considered more, and

(49:06):
when they go about engaging, they do it with a
level of accuracy and professionalism. This is a conversation that
happened repeatedly. What I'm stating for the record is I'd
like to see that.

Speaker 2 (49:24):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (49:26):
The reforming of the BMV was before I got to Indiana.

Speaker 2 (49:32):
What came next.

Speaker 1 (49:35):
LEAP We should be discussing large scale projects. But what
happened with LEIP was, Hey, here's what we're doing, not hey,
here's why we're doing it. And people were insulted, and
people were pushed aside, and it was a horrific rollout.

(49:56):
There's a great example of what I've seen since redistricting.
Just push it to the side in favor of governing
on what's subject and in which way?

Speaker 2 (50:08):
Where is that leadership?

Speaker 1 (50:12):
Sorry if my question offends, but I think the idea
that I'm being told you're leading is more offensive.

Speaker 2 (50:20):
I want you to I just want to know where
it is. Where should I look?

Speaker 1 (50:44):
Dick Cheney has passed away at the age of eighty four.
Tony Katz ninety three WIBC, Good Morning. That's announced this
morning took place last night complications that exist did from
pneumonia and heart and vascular disease, surrounded by his family,

(51:05):
the former vice president in two thousand and one to
two thousand and nine. A history of public service, whether
you liked it or not, is a completely different conversation.
I'll let the people who want to engage their their
Dick Cheney hate. I'll let them engage that all they choose.

(51:30):
White House Chief of Stafford President Gerald Ford, representative out
of Wyoming, served as the Secretary of Defense for George H. W. Bush,
then his Vice President of the United States for that
Bush's son, George Bush.

Speaker 2 (51:51):
I'm leaving it there.

Speaker 1 (51:53):
You want to engage anything else, you're more than welcome to.

Speaker 2 (51:57):
Just leave me out of it.

Speaker 1 (52:00):
And the Trump administration is now going to pay out
half of the November snap benefits. I just want to
look at all the people who told me that Donald
Trump was a king and say he's the worst king ever.

Speaker 2 (52:18):
I didn't know you could do this.

Speaker 1 (52:21):
I didn't know that you could tell a king, hey,
you have to spend money, and the king has to go. Well,
I guess if I have to. I didn't know that
was the case. I didn't know you could do such
a thing. But it turns out you can because maybe
Trump isn't a king, and maybe everybody who said so
is a liar and a.

Speaker 2 (52:37):
Fraud and absolutely awful, And they.

Speaker 1 (52:41):
Don't care that it doesn't move them at all that
you expose them as a liar and a fraud.

Speaker 2 (52:47):
They'll just keep on doing it. People fall for that stuff.

Speaker 1 (52:52):
It's a lot of hate for the American people. It's
a lot of wanting to turn the brain to rot.
No thanks, Eli building a three billion dollar manufacturing site
in the Netherlands, huh.

Speaker 2 (53:10):
I have many.

Speaker 1 (53:11):
Questions, specifically, is this about supply chained or is this
about something else? You know, the relationship with Indiana and Lily,
I would easily argue should continue and continue aggressively. There
should be a conversation about what's given versus what is received.

(53:35):
But when I take a look at them building another
parts of the United States, I get infuriated. I don't
know if I should be infuriated by them building other
parts of the globe. They have European manufacturing in France, Ireland, Italy,
and Spain they have shared in twenty twenty. They've got

(53:56):
additional sites that they're considering Ireland, Germany and now the Netherlands.

Speaker 2 (54:02):
I accept that they're a global company. They got to
act that way.

Speaker 1 (54:06):
But anytime we're talking about doing things in the United States, man,
if it's not Indiana first, that's pretty bothersome. Now does
that mean you give.

Speaker 2 (54:15):
Away a farm to get it? Oh? No, oh, no,
oh no.

Speaker 1 (54:19):
I just think Lily needs the constant reminder in a
respectful way that this is home. You should treat the
home pretty good. That did I say too much?

Speaker 2 (54:33):
No? I didn't think so either.

Speaker 1 (54:35):
Tony Katz at ninety three WIBC, Good morning, Arctic Frost
and Microsoft.

Speaker 2 (54:43):
First, what is Arctic Frost?

Speaker 1 (54:45):
Well, this was the investigation set up by the Biden
administration looking into members of the Trump administration to see, hey,
who can we go after? Tony Katz, that's me ninety
three WIBC, Good.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
Morning, Good to be with you. That's what Arctic Frost was.
It was the Merrick Garland Justice Department.

Speaker 1 (55:13):
It was utilizing the Special Council Jack Smith, who can
we go after? Show me the man and I'll show
you the crime. That's Arctic Frost the government weaponized against
the American people. Well, there's a story that goes along
with this, of course, we shared how subpoenas were given

(55:37):
and to AT and T and to Verizon to hand
over phone records of senators like Senator Ted Cruz, and
Verizon handed over everything. Here you go, and AT and
T said, we're not following the subpoena.

Speaker 2 (55:51):
No, no, no, no where. We can't do this.

Speaker 1 (55:54):
And the government backed off, and I am going to
move my service from Verizon to AT and T. Now
I've been looking at you know, who's faster this and that.
It seems that rises a little bit faster than AT
and T. Here T Mobile seems too faster than everybody.
But I'm not going to reward Verizon for doing something.

(56:15):
It's holy horrific. Government gives us a peena and you're like, okay,
whatever you want. But this is part of that larger
conversation about connection points exactly how many people work in government.
They go work in the private sector, still doing the
work of government.

Speaker 2 (56:35):
So there's a.

Speaker 1 (56:36):
Group called the Center to Advanced Security in America and
they're saying that Homeland Security needs to review its contracts
with Microsoft's. For what reason, Microsoft hired a woman by
the name of Lisa Monaco. The risk that Monaco could

(56:57):
again use access to information containers and department contracts to
turn against her political opponents or even those Microsoft users
within the government with whom she disagrees. Is great given
her past outrageous behavior. Monaco, who is Microsoft's president of
Global Affairs, served as Deputy Attorney General under President Joe Biden.

(57:22):
She had a role in Arctic Frost, which investigated Republicans,
conservatives of private citizens, and elected officials. So now that
Homeland Security has contracts with Microsoft, and now you have
this woman who is part of Arctic Frost having a
huge position of power. Can she or is she or

(57:47):
would she engage in some level of manipulation? And the
answer is I don't know, But I think that's reason
enough to say, maybe this isn't somebody we need to
be connected to. Maybe this isn't okay, Tony. People can't
have jobs in the private sector people who are involved

(58:08):
in weaponizing government against the citizens. They can have any
job they want, but they can't be connected to anything
that would allow them to further weaponize the government against
the citizen. No, no, they can't. This is exactly the
kind of stuff that we need to be paying attention to.

(58:31):
There's a statement that she does not have a security clearance,
cannot enter federal property.

Speaker 2 (58:40):
Is unfit for the role.

Speaker 1 (58:41):
We agree with President Trump and Monaco needs to be fired,
and hope DHS will initiate an a media investigation into
these contracts. Over one hundred and fifty Republican officials and
allies were targeted, the former White House Chief of Staff
Mark Meadows, Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley, like Steve Bennon.

Speaker 2 (59:01):
One hundred and ninety seven.

Speaker 1 (59:02):
Subpoenas came forward from Jack Smith's team, targeting approximately four
hundred and thirty Republican entities and individuals. And they want
to talk to us about fascism. Fascism is government and

(59:24):
large scale business working together towards towards their own goal.

Speaker 2 (59:29):
As a matter of just definition.

Speaker 1 (59:32):
These people are like, I know fascism when I see it,
and clearly you don't, not.

Speaker 2 (59:38):
In the slightest may I add ah? This is a
big story.

Speaker 1 (59:43):
The problem is these are the stories that a don't
get any coverage by the left. They should be outraged
by this stuff if they if they're serious about what
is they say, but of course they're not serious about
anything they say. And as a follow up, and these
stories are processed, they're not sexy.

Speaker 2 (01:00:08):
They're not they're not they're they're just not sexy.

Speaker 1 (01:00:15):
Of course, neither is redistricting, which is still a conversation.
Here the Indiana Capitol Chronicle with a story that the
Indiana Black Legislative Caucus they gathered to oppose withdrawing the map,
and the headline is democracy doesn't get redrawn. Okay, if

(01:00:38):
you say so, except that lines a bunch of bunk,
and you know it, and you sound silly when you
say it. That's the event. Democracy doesn't get redrawn. As
a matter of fact, lines get redrawn every ten years,
if we utilize the census in that way, at least

(01:00:58):
every ten years.

Speaker 2 (01:01:00):
So what are you talking about?

Speaker 1 (01:01:03):
You had faith leaders, you had the NAACP, Common Cause Indiana,
the African American Coalition of Indianapolis, and Indivisible Northwest Indiana.
And my question is, what the hell are you talking about?
Democracy doesn't get redrawn. Have any of you looked at
the constitution?

Speaker 2 (01:01:23):
Do any of you know what districting is at all?

Speaker 1 (01:01:27):
Any Do any of you know what happens at a
minimum every ten years.

Speaker 2 (01:01:31):
Do any of you don't yell Tony, don't yell. There's
no need for that. It's just embarrassing.

Speaker 1 (01:01:42):
It Would it be better if I if I played
it and instead of me doing Yeah, probably probably better if.

Speaker 2 (01:01:48):
I just played it. It really is you oppose this
because you.

Speaker 1 (01:02:00):
Might lose out on Andre Carson. Why don't you go
support Jennifer Ruth Green. Oh well, she's got some serious
ethical issues maybe, but so.

Speaker 2 (01:02:08):
Does Andre Carson.

Speaker 1 (01:02:09):
That doesn't stop you, Or is that Jennifer Ruth Green
is black and a conservative and Andre Carson is black
and a liberal, and we understand that if you're conservative
and black, you're not really black according.

Speaker 2 (01:02:23):
To the left.

Speaker 1 (01:02:23):
If you guys want to fight me on this one,
I'm in all the way down to it, all the
way in every way. That's the story. Being opposed to
redistricting is fine, But the argument of you don't democracy

(01:02:44):
doesn't get redrawn is silly. The opposition to something that
is constitutional, something that is political, that's based on the
idea of we're not allowed to do this, we can't
do this is silly. And if I'm going if we're
now going to make this racial, it is even more silly.

(01:03:06):
I've got someone in the chatroom there as we're live
streaming to YouTube.

Speaker 2 (01:03:11):
You're being purposely up to. So I'm sorry I've.

Speaker 1 (01:03:13):
Seemed to be the only one with the argument. I
may not be able to convince all the people I
need to with my argument. But democracy doesn't get redrawn
is a very ridiculous thing to say. And I would
ask the Indiana Black Legislative Caucus do you support people

(01:03:34):
based on color of skin or based on politics?

Speaker 2 (01:03:40):
And if it's politics, what politics?

Speaker 1 (01:03:42):
Because if you called yourself the Indiana Black Progressive Legislative Caucus,
I would understand it. This is like the NAACP not
supporting winsome Seers in Virginia in the governor's race. They're
supporting Abigail Spanberger, a woman so white she could have
been a body double in the movie Powder. So you

(01:04:07):
don't support black candidates, you support progressive candidates. Well just
say so, Oh I'm not allowed to notice?

Speaker 2 (01:04:17):
You want to?

Speaker 1 (01:04:17):
You want to call me a racist for noticing? Go ahead,
you better come heavy, because all I did was bring
data being opposed to redistricting.

Speaker 2 (01:04:27):
Fine, democracy doesn't get redrawn.

Speaker 1 (01:04:30):
Is a dopey, dopey statement that's also completely not true.

Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
It suffers from two problems. Time to fill up on
the news.

Speaker 1 (01:04:41):
Tony katz a ninety three WIBC, Good morning, What is
going on with you? Booboo doubt Futures down two ninety nine,
Nasdak futures down three ninety one.

Speaker 2 (01:04:51):
I will explain.

Speaker 1 (01:04:53):
Oil prices sixty dollars and twenty three cents. Interesting story
about oil prices. There's a story over there at OilPrice
dot com about what happens if oil per barrel on
the West Texas gets to fifty dollars a barrel. And

(01:05:17):
it's an interesting question because I think we'd all go woohoo.
The argument being made here is it's going to put
an end to shale growth in the United States, right
how they're able to extract things from from the ground
in other ways, very very very interesting look at things.

middle there. I'm trying different places with it. We'll see
what sticks. But I love that they're here simple quarters
three one seven, nine hundred, home tenure treasury at four
point zero nine to three and gold prices at three thousand,
nine hundred and seventy eight dollars, so under four thousand.

It was at the high.

Speaker 1 (01:06:23):
It was a little over four thousand so far this
morning right now of the bid thirty nine seventy eight silver,
forty seven dollars and forty seven cents. But it's interesting
about oil, it's interesting about the shale in that market.
But there's a question of why are we Dow futures
down three hundred, na is back down four hundred. CNBC

(01:06:44):
with an interesting story that the S and P is
sliding one percent because Palanteer is down, and what is
their concern? Maybe these AI stocks are valued a little
too high? Oh okay, that that's enough to shake people,

(01:07:05):
because as we know through our conversations, AI stocks are
driving everything. AI investment is everything, and there doesn't seem
to be a stop in sight. It is uh, it
is massive. So they dropped seven percent in the pre

(01:07:27):
market even though they're beating guide they're beating estimates.

For the third quarter.

Speaker 1 (01:07:35):
They saw one point three to three billion in revenue
for the period, higher than the one point one to
nine expected. Yet concerns about AI bringing the market down,
that's just letting you.

Speaker 2 (01:07:47):
Know exactly how big.

That marketplace is and how much AI is driving everything.

Tony Katz ninety three WIBC. Good morning. It's time to.

Speaker 1 (01:08:15):
Play America's favorite game. What the heck is that television
theme song? Tony Katz at ninety three WIBC, Good morning,
Good to be with you. Here is how we play
our our game. Uh, Producer Carl. You've seen producer Carl.
By the way, we need to get him a turkey

(01:08:37):
for Thanksgiving. So if anybody has a recommendation or does
premide turkeys that we can have sent to or picked
up by producer Carl, I will.

Speaker 2 (01:08:45):
Do that right now. I will do that right now.
So make a suggestion.

Speaker 1 (01:08:51):
He picks a television theme song from yester year, I
have to guess what it is. I can utilize the
good people at the livestream YouTube dot Com, slash w
I b C. They can give answers, or I can
phone a friend and go to Matt Bear. So I
didn't say I was gonna do that. Don't don't, don't
rush it. You don't want to premature phone a friend.

(01:09:16):
Premature phoning is not is a condition that you need
to see a doctor about. So I can phone a
friend and I will Matt Bear in the w IBC
traffic center. Let's start the theme song again. Let's start
all again. Matt Bear, what is this television theme song?

(01:09:48):
That's Deadwood?

Speaker 3 (01:09:49):
Tony?

Speaker 2 (01:09:51):
What's that? Oh? Deadwood? Bravo by the way, Bravo. God,
he's good. I have absolutely no idea, and nobody else
does either.

Speaker 3 (01:10:06):
Think spin off? What think spin off?

Speaker 2 (01:10:09):
So one person did have this, Uh, Mikey.

Speaker 1 (01:10:14):
Or Shatner. Fan in the chat room says, this is
the theme song to Joey.

Speaker 4 (01:10:19):
Good lord, it lasted two years. Joey right, he was
not he was not wrong to do that.

Speaker 1 (01:10:31):
And then he'd hit with man with a plan and
he's like, you know what, I have so much.

Speaker 2 (01:10:36):
Money, what does it matter.

Speaker 1 (01:10:38):
I'm good he has managed to But then he he
had another show after that, didn't he didn't Matt LeBlanc
have another show after Man with a Plan.

Speaker 3 (01:10:52):
Playing a dumb guy.

Speaker 2 (01:10:54):
I know it was. It was like a cable show,
don't now right?

Speaker 1 (01:11:01):
I mean Triviani, who is who he's known for? Oh, episodes,
there was a television show called episodes. I don't know
those HBO or what it was.

Speaker 2 (01:11:12):
Yeah, he did that.

Speaker 1 (01:11:14):
He did that twenty eleven to twenty seventeen. He did
Man with a Plan twenty sixteen to twenty twenty. And
then he said, you know what, I'm good here. I
have more money than I know what to do with
TV universally loved.

Speaker 2 (01:11:29):
We're good, We're totally fine. Nothing else offer, Thank you,
Cleveland good.

Speaker 1 (01:11:36):
His IMDb, comparatively speaking, is actually pretty short, and he
has done He did two hundred and thirty five episodes
of Friends, forty six episodes of Joey, forty one episodes
of the show Episodes, and sixty nine episodes a Man

(01:11:57):
with a Plan.

Speaker 2 (01:11:59):
That's four hundred television episodes.

Speaker 1 (01:12:03):
Life's okay, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm assuming. Every morning
he wakes up, he turns on his laptop, he looks
at the.

Speaker 2 (01:12:14):
Bank account and he goes, how you doing, and then
he has coffee. Right, that's got to be I should
have done it louder. How you doing right? That would
have been funnier.

Speaker 1 (01:12:25):
It on Tony Katz today at noon, we've got election
day going on in New York, election day in Virginia,
election day in New Jersey, and of course the election
in California for Prop. Fifty that would allow them to
redistrict that Democrats seemingly have no problem with unless you're
the state of Indiana. Note that Republicans, Oh, we don't

(01:12:49):
do that here, that's beneath us.

Speaker 2 (01:12:52):
Would you stop it?

Speaker 1 (01:12:54):
Would you stop pretending that somehow there is a high
grounds conversation here or a low ground conversation here. There
is only the conversation here redistricting.

Speaker 2 (01:13:06):
I say do it. Although now that.

Speaker 1 (01:13:09):
Republicans have said we're not going to start the special
session before the session organization day is November eighteenth, We're
going to start it afterwards in December. So you wanted
to avoid Thanksgiving, and now you're gonna have to get
this pass, get maps drawn, get it done, and implement
it in a shorter timeframe. Understand that this is all

(01:13:32):
the fault of Governor Brown, who should have.

Speaker 2 (01:13:35):
Called the special session back in August. We're talking about time.

Speaker 1 (01:13:42):
This is what we're talking about, and that's why all
of this has left me in the place.

Speaker 2 (01:13:46):
Certainly hasn't changed my mind or redistricting.

Speaker 1 (01:13:48):
What it has done has made me say, I believe
this move is to not do it. If I was
a betting man, remember, I have my thoughts, I have
my philosophies. I share them with you clearly, But we
always look at everything honestly. The difference between us and
everybody else is that we are always honest about what
it is we're seeing, and it's why we're able to

(01:14:09):
see around the corner so often. It's not that we're
actually smarter than anybody else, it's that we're more honest
than everybody else. That's the story. And if I was
a betting man right now, I would argue that the
purpose of this, pushing it down the road to after
Thanksgiving is not well, it's going to save the taxpayer,

(01:14:31):
that's the story.

Speaker 2 (01:14:31):
That's the cover.

Speaker 1 (01:14:33):
It's that they're gonna say they can't get it done,
they don't want this to come to a vote.

Speaker 2 (01:14:40):
I believe they have gotten very, very, very bad advice.

Speaker 1 (01:14:44):
And one of the worst pieces of advice is this
is going to rally the Democrats in twenty twenty six.
With all due respect, they hate you already and everything
they do is based on a national platform. It is
a complete and total misread to think that this is
going to rally them any more than they are already rallied.

(01:15:07):
But there is not a conversation happening that needs to
about where the Republican Party is to turn out the
vote in twenty twenty six. I don't see anything like that.
Concerns that there's going to be a Democrat turnout because
of redistricting. That's what people tell themselves. There is no

(01:15:30):
basis for this, none at all. That is what you
tell yourself as a reason not to do the thing,
because we don't want to be those people. What people
are you're referring to, California is now doing it a
full act of retribution.

Speaker 2 (01:15:49):
Will see what they vote today.

Speaker 1 (01:15:51):
A full act of retribution. Marland's doing it a full
act of retribution. And oh no we're above that. No, no,
you're not. Indiana Republicans. I don't know what you think
you're above. I'd like for you to be focused on

(01:16:12):
the governing and growth and opportunities and the future. But
again I say to you, we don't see that. I
would turn to the Democratic Party and say what.

Speaker 2 (01:16:20):
Do you got, But we know the answer.

Speaker 1 (01:16:23):
Orange man Bad is their entire platform, and that platform sucks.
It's election day and we will be covering it, and yes,
I'll live stream it tonight. I will kick my feet up,
grab a bourbon and share with you what's going on.
So be tuned in for that.
