Speaker 1 (00:06):
Fifty five KRC, the talk station seven thirty on this
Thursday morning, Dan Carolyn for Brian Thomas. One more day,
Kevin Gordon'll be here tomorrow morning, and I get to
welcome in one of my one of my all time
favorite guests, Zeke Arkham, is a prolific poster on different
types of social media. I follow him on X but

(00:29):
I would imagine or recommend that you follow him just
on any social media outlet you possibly can. And Zeke Arkham,
it is great to have you back on the radio
fifty five KRC. How are you this morning? Thanks for
getting up early.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
By the way, You're welcome. You're welcome. How are you,
my friend? I'm good to me again.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
I'm good. It's always great to have you on. And
I see now you're calling yourself a professional roaster. I
love that, because, yes, say someone gets you in your crosshairs,
they're gonna get it pretty good.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
You know a lot of people tell me don't see
the trols. I've seed them just because they're entertainment for me.
You know, if you if you come at me, I'm
gonna make you pay for it. And I pretty much
got a queen record, so I like doing it.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
It is. It is amazing to me how many people
choose to come after you, and they do so to
their regret, I think eventually, and I'm gonna get to
that probably here in a little bit. But let me
ask you. You're in the You're in the belly of
the beast. You're there in New York and Latitia James
that this story that that broke late I guess it

(01:40):
was Tuesday night and during the day yesterday and continues
on into today about she may have falsified this documentation
when it comes to getting mortgage loans pretty much the
exact same thing that she went after President Trump for.
How is all this playing in New York? I would
imagine that this is a pretty big story in your

(02:02):
neck of the woods.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
Well, thankfully, I'm on Long Island, which is which is
a lot more red than New York City, which thank god,
because I'm running out of places to move to. But
you know, listen, that old adage, if you come out
after the king, you better not miss and she missed.
They all did, and Trumps president and I have no

(02:26):
problem with him now going okay, well, let's let's turn
the lens back on you. Now, let's see what you've
got going on, and it terms. You know, she's she
lived in a glasshouse, and she threw stones, and now
some stones are getting thrown back at her. And I
can't wait to see how this develops. You know, I
want to see her have to answer now. I want

(02:48):
to see her have to paint a test for what
she's got going on. So, you know, she she missed,
the whole Democrat Party missed. You know, we all knew
this was a bogus file to begin with when she
went after him from Oar a Lago and there's been
absolutely nothing of substance that's come out of that. And
I want to see how this hole shapes out and

(03:10):
if if she's if she was caught with her hand
in the cookie jar, I want to see her pay
for it. Absolutely.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
Yeah. The New York Post is having a field day
with this. How how much fun is it to uh
to to get up every morning and and and find
out what the cover of the New York Post is
going to be because they are just uh, I mean,
they are covering this like nobody's business.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
The Post is a newspaper around here in New York
that uh, they lean right, But they get a lot
of things wrong, but uh, you know, listen, they their
covers are unbeaten, you know, so they're they're they're pretty
good with it. And to see her on the cover
and she's looking she's got that look in her eye,

(03:55):
you know, she's got that uh what I call the
crying Jordan's face going on, because just her look as
just like what's going on here, you know. So I'm
happy to see it. And like I said, you know,
if this leads to a trial for her, if this
leads to her having to answer for what she's done
and videos, if this is turnabout in fair play, like

(04:16):
she said, no one is above the law. So I'm
all for it. Let's see. I want to see how
this develops.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Yeah. The the the other story we've been talking about
this morning is this Senator van Holland, Chris van Holland
went down to El Salvador. Uh, you know, pretended that
he was going to go down there and meet with
the leaders of Al Salvador, go into this prison and
get this, you know this kil maar Armando Garcia out

(04:42):
of prison and bring him back, bring him back home,
he says to to marylynd And, and you were commenting
on your social media that you thought it was pretty
ridiculous that this is the hill that Democrats are choosing
to die on. Well, you know, when it comes to
illegals being in this country and this guy being MS
thirteen gang member, it is it just it seems to

(05:05):
me like it's the biggest blind spot that I've ever
seen the Democrats looking at this, that that they want
the you know, this guy is representative, representative and emblematic
of just the most horrific and horrendous things that could
be brought upon American citizens. And yet they're going down
and reaching into the muck and the meyer and they

(05:26):
want to bring this guy back and hold him up
as an example of everything that's wrong with the Trump administration.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
I mean, this is a typical Democrat response to anything
Trump does. Right, they're going after a gang member, a
bona fide gang member, MS thirteen gang member. You know,
the last I checked MS thirteen. They're not exactly good people.
You know, they don't have to say that. Yeah, it's

(05:57):
not like there goal to join their team. You know,
they're like, well, what acts of benevolence have you committed?
You know, what, what what volunteer work have you done
in order to get into MS thirteen. You know they're not,
they're not you know, opening up soup kitchens across El
Salvador exactly. So the fact that the Democrats, you know, this, this, this,

(06:18):
this elected official went to L Salvador. Like, you know,
I'm going to make this my mission to go up
to the L. Salvadorian government and return with this man
so he can lead a productive blacks across America. No,
this is this is the hell you're dying on. This
is what you want to do now. This is how
you choose to spend taxpayer money because you didn't use

(06:40):
your own money to get down there. Yeah, you know
you you choose to spend taxpayer money to go to
another nation to try to demand this person's release. This
guy was a horrible person, and but this is typical
of Democrats. This is a TDS level that they're at now,
and they just make themselves look bad. You know. For me,
I'm all board. You know, let's let's get that approval

(07:02):
rating for the Democrats down a couple more.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
Not just just so let him keep digging. You don't
want to stop them from digging. Just let him let
him keep digging there. They're they're you know, they're going
the way we want them to go, So why stand
in their way if they're going to do that? Zeke,
let me ask you a hold on real quick. We
got to get to a quick break here in a
little uh weather update, and we will continue on the
other side with my buddy Zeke Arkham on fifty five KRC.

(07:24):
The talk stays fifty five KRC. Hello, fifty five KRC
the talk station, continuing our conversation with my buddy Zeke
Arkham and Uh. Zeke Arkham. Let me ask you this.
One of the things you've been commenting on a lot,
is this case involving Camarado Carmelo, Anthony Uh and Austin Metcalf.

(07:50):
First of all, how did this case reach the celebrity
status that it has in your opinion? And then this
news that came out yesterday that this family has raised
so much money on I guess GoFundMe that that they
are now living in a house, renting a house in
a gated community. They've got a brand new car. What

(08:13):
kind of signaling is this it's going on from this
family to I guess, I guess their supporters. What's up
with this case?

Speaker 2 (08:22):
I legitimately have no idea, Dan, I wish I could
tell you, but I'm just seeing a lot of ugliness
coming out of it from both sides, From all sides. Honestly,
You've got black folks who are raising this person as
some sort of pariah, you know, on their behalf, saying
that this is you know, this is the hill they
want to die on, so to speak. You've got the

(08:45):
right meaning people who are now trying to raise this
as as their person now. And you know, it's just
it's going back and forth, and there's a lot of
ugly use coming out of it. I don't know what
the facts are. I'm hearing different things about when the
house was leased or when the when the car was brought.

(09:06):
So I'm I'm sort of taking a stance now. Well,
I'm gonna take back and I'm gonna wait for the
sax to come out, because you know, I want to
see exactly what happened. I wanted to see exactly what
the testimony is. I want to see exactly, you know,
just what the story is, what the whole story is.
But I stand by what I said when I said
Judges shouldn't be activists, And I don't know if Bill

(09:30):
should ever be lowered, especially when you have a dead body.
You know, you have someone who brought a weapon to
a track meet and used it. Whether he was a
good kid before that or not, you know, he's still
put a weapon to a track meet. And you know,
if it was a shoving match, if it was if
it was a fight that happened, you still have someone

(09:51):
who died. You still have a kid who didn't get
to get home with his parents. So you know, I
don't think the judge should have Lord Dale. I don't
you know. But you know, like I said, let's see
what happens with this, and let's see what the whole
story is before we all start getting emotional about it.

Speaker 1 (10:07):
Yeah, and if you if you look at the media,
at least as I look at the media coverage on this,
it certainly is apparent to me would.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
Highre part to demonize Austin Metcalf. You know, they've been
handling Carmel Anthony from what I've seen with kid gloves.
But like I said, you've got obdess for me from
both sides, because this is this has definitely been a
racially charged event. I make the point on another interview

(10:36):
where I said, but the biggest tragedy of all is
that if both kids have been black, this wouldn't been covered.
This just would have been another This just would have
been another incident that happens. So I mean, you're looking at,
you know, two families now whose lives will be changed
for the rest of their lives now, and you're looking

(10:58):
at two students who their lives will be changed. And
you're looking at one student who he's not going to
have life. You know, you're looking at another student who
is going to pay the consequences for what he did.
And he made a bad decision one day and he's
gonna pay for it. So you know, like I said,
I want I want to see how the trial holds out.
I want to see what stats come out. I want

(11:18):
to see what happens. And but you know, I say
that both sides, this is not the hill to die on.
This is not the hill now to get out, you know,
the worst, to put the worst of of of our representation,
of our representation and our representatives in front. So you know,
like I said, just let's see what's going on.

Speaker 1 (11:37):
Yeah, the one thing you post about quite frequently is
is your daughter and the way you are trying to
raise her and bring her up, and you know, have
the have the values that you have and the things
that you want to be instilled in her. And it's
amazing to me how much constant criticism that people have
because of the way you talk about It's obviously obviously

(11:59):
how much you love her and care about her, but
it's amazing to me the amount of criticism that people
have when you talk about the things that you think
that are important and the way that she ought to
be brought up. I just I just, you know, again,
where do people get off thinking that they have uh,
you know, some some some right of way to come

(12:21):
at you for talking about the way you want to
raise your daughter.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
Well, that's that's why, you know what I probably say it. Yes,
I am indoctrinating my daughter. It's not it's not the
teacher's job at her school to indoctrinate her. It's not
the teacher's job at her school to try to, you know,
move her in one direction or another. No, I'm her parents,
between my wife and I to to raise her up

(12:47):
the way we think she should be brought up and
raise her up with our values. Yes, I'm one hundred
percent saying that. Absolutely, that's that's what we're doing. You know,
we we have a chance to send her to a
Christian academy and their values reflect ours. And yes, we're
going to do everything we can to try to get
her into the school because we like her brought up

(13:08):
a certain way. And when people go, will you know
you're doctoring her? Yeah? Well yeah, that's our job as parents.
You know, it's not is not our job to just
kind of just leave her out there and be wild. No,
we want her to to reflect what we what we
what we what we follow, So you know, I say
it undershamedly. Yeah, yeah, I'm one hundred percent doing that.

(13:31):
And if you have a problem with that, there is
literally nothing you can do about it. So cry more.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
Well, yeah, you're you're leading by example and uh and
I think that, uh, you know, that's probably one of
the very best things you can do. And uh, if
more people were following you and looking at what you did,
I think, you know this, the world in general would
be a better place. So Zeke, if people want to
follow you, I know I'm following you on X. Where
else can people find you?

Speaker 2 (13:56):
On?

Speaker 1 (13:56):
On social media.

Speaker 2 (13:59):
You can find me at Zeke Ukham z e e
k A r k h A m over on X
and over on Instagram, and I just invade the TikTok
world just like Trump did. But I'm over there as
real Zeke Ukham, so yeah, you can find me. I'm
I'm branching out into a further social media site. So yeah,

(14:21):
that's all my social media.

Speaker 1 (14:22):
Real Zeke Arkham on the TikTok. Zeke, I appreciate the
time as always, man. Always great to have you on.
Great talking to you. Tell everyone in the family. I said, hey,
and have yourself a great weekend, my friend. Appreciate it.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
Thank you, my friend, thanks for having me on.
