Speaker 1 (03:49):
All right, yesterday Elon, mister Musk, mister douge yes was
on the Ted Cruz Verdict podcast, which you just heard
a little spot for there at the top of the
are yes, uh, and we played a clip of it.
We got another clip too. He was talking with Ted
(04:13):
and the existence of what he calls these magic money computers.
And here's what he has to say about.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
One of the things you told me about is is
what you call say magic money computers. Well, so tell
us about it, because I've never heard of that until
you brought that up.
Speaker 6 (04:31):
Okay, So you may think that these the government computers
like all talk to each other, they synchronize, they add
up what funds are going somewhere, and it's you know,
it's coherent that that that the you know, there's and that,
and that the numbers, for example, that your presented as
a senator are actually the real numbers.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
And one would think, well, I would think they're not. Yeah, okay, I.
Speaker 6 (04:57):
Mean they're not totally wrong, but they're probably off by
five percent or ten percent in some cases.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
So I call it magic my computer.
Speaker 6 (05:04):
Any computer which can just make money out of thin
air best magic money.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
So how does that work? It just issues payments.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
And you said something like eleven of these computers of
treasury that are that are sending out trillions in payments.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
They're mostly a treasury, some are with the sum at HHS,
some at there's one of one of two as states,
there's some at DD. I think we found now fourteen
magic money computers.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Wow, Gene, Okay.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
They just send money out of nothing.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Yeah, out of nothing, out of nothing.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Yeah, because we're the government and we just we just
make money up here and we just send it to
all our friends and accept you. We don't like you.
You don't get it.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
It's the dark money budgets, yeah, that are getting passed
the law. And and you got and you get pink
and purple haired people and Punta Gorda along with the
unemployed liberals.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
That's a fun state. Pro purple haired and Punagorda protesting.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Yeah, protesting, you know, getting rid of this broad waste
and abuse. Yes, it's like we they just want to
keep the grift going. High caller Hello again.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
I just got passed to me a list of the
highest paid employees in Charlotte County. Every salary is sixty
eight thousand. What really struck me was thirty five of
the top hundred employees we're fire departments, with the number
ninety eight making one hundred and twenty one thousand a year.
(06:35):
The top one was making one hundred and eighty two
of them to lieutenants one hundred and eighty. I just wondered,
if you ever seen anything like this, you might be
able to search for it under Charlotte County, Florida's highest
paid employees. It's just we wonder where all our money's doing.
(06:56):
And I've been I don't know how many fires we've
had lately in our first responders. Is they're not really
doing much?
Speaker 1 (07:06):
No, they do, they're not, They're not. All I do
is here, fire trucks, an ambulance were all day long.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
They got to meet those quota.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Since January. So they're just driving. Where are they just practicing?
I you know, I can't speak to that. I don't know.
I'll go ahead and look that up, but I don't know.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Yeah, County attorney highest paid at three hundred and one thousand,
County Administrator two hundred and fifty one thousand, Director of
Public Safety two hundred and thirty nine thousand, Deputy County
administrator two hundred and twelve thousand, Blah blah blah, Fire lieutenant. Okay, okay,
let's see home on so then Director of Budget Administration,
Director of Common Development, Director, Community Service Division Manager, Assistant
(07:51):
County Administrator. Then you have coming in at number ten
battalion chief fire EMS one hundred and eighty four thousand,
Deputy Chief Public Safety T one hundred and eighty three thousand,
and then two fire lieutenants at one hundred and eighty
thousand each.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Yeah, good gig if you can get it, I guess.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
So they got to play in the barbecues. You know,
they're all hanging out at the station making chili. You
make chili and they're having chili cookoffs.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Yeah, you know, somebody's got to take care of the dog.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
They got to update the foosball machine. I don't know
whatever I mean, okay, but yeah, I mean it's true,
whether there's a fire or not, when the ambulance goes out,
the fire truck has to follow, right, That's why I heard.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Yeah, I think that's the case.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
Quotas they got to justify having it, so they got
to use it.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
I think there's another reason for that, but I don't.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
I'm sure there is if somebody knows, you know, we heard,
we heard it.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Look, look, they're always there when I need them, So, yeah,
I guess that's what that's what you're paying for.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
I mean, we're talking about people fire bombing Tesla's. Yeah,
so we kind of need the fire department putting them out.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
And these are all higher end guys at the end
of their career, Yeah, towards the end.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
I'd have to you know, i'd have to see what.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
What are they doing?
Speaker 4 (09:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Are they buying Lamborghinis?
Speaker 1 (09:24):
The three hundred grand a year for the attorney though
I know ew yeah, I mean, you know, there are
some good lawyers, and I know them personally and they
are good lawyers, yes, but three hundred grand, Yeah, what
are you doing all day?
Speaker 3 (09:41):
I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
I don't know that that's it kind of seems a lot,
just a bit anyway, Good Talk two six fifteen eighty,
toll Free eight eight eight four four one fifteen eighty.
Oh my god, Hey, so you know where's all these
Christian Bethlehem and stuff. You know, we got thousands of
(10:07):
Christians and olo whites getting massacred over Syria right now.
Nobody seems to give.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Them South Africa.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Yeah, No, Christians are getting just literally wiped out across
the Middle East, and you don't hear a word of
it on the news at all.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
I'm just like you don't hear a word on the
news from when Elon rescued the astronauts.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
And again I think I told you why, And I'll
bet you that's why the left is going to keep
covering up the fact that the entire left was in
on this. I didn't hear any Democrat congressman or let's
send Musk up to get these guys. They just let
them offered. Could have got them out after a couple
of months, but they didn't want to let Musk look
(10:54):
good because it might make Trump look good and it
might make them look bad. So they thought it would
be a better look to just abandon these two people
in space until after the election, and that's what they did.
That's how evil these people are. That's how disgusting these
people are. So a lot of you maybe didn't get
to see unless you're on the socials all the Dolphins
(11:14):
swimming around the couch.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Yeah, but of course babylon Bee pointed out that the
Dolphins are now being fire bombed and painted with swaspwas
because and we're not talking about the football team or not,
like literal dolphins. SeaWorld is having a big time with this. Well,
I think the reason that you're not here shows the
(11:37):
lefts insane. Well, and again, you can't celebrate good news
DJ Daniel becoming a secret service as he's thirteen. You know,
with cancer, you can't applaud them fire bombing Tesla's when
you love Tesla's two years ago. You can't applaud Elon
for saving two astronauts, and you know, playing with the dolphins.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Come on, man, and they hate religion because government is
their God exactly so as just buying. Large Western societies
have discarded God in religion, particularly Western Europeans, and yet
they have that yet they're kissing Islam's ass. Yeah, of course,
I mean just bending over for the oddest, which is
(12:21):
slowly conquering Europe. Ireland and UK are basically dead and
they just don't know it yet.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
The Europeans murdered their Jews, who gave them culture and
Nobel prizes, and replaced them with millions of Muslims who
will eventually end their good life. In the meantime, these
same Western Christians are silent about the Muslim oppression of
their co religionists and about the fate of the Christians
in the birthplace of Jesus. That from Joseph Peuter, an
(12:50):
American thinker. It's true. Yep, the West ignores the slaughter
of Christians worldwide, in Africa and in the Middle East.
And you nor did your peril.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Exactly. Whatever Europe's dealing with, we could be dealing with
in five to ten years.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Yeah, if not sooner about ten for a cruise ede eh.
Speaker 7 (13:11):
Yeah, well, you know that's just like.
Speaker 4 (13:15):
Your opinion.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Man will be.
Speaker 8 (13:17):
Right back with Charlotte County Speaks News Radio fifteen eighty WCCF.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Stop stop cooking your food.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Stop cooking your food.
Speaker 9 (13:30):
Hey, all of you, you believers, believers in climate change. Y'all,
if you're cooking your food, you're a part of the problem.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (13:38):
First we were told.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Yeah, there was no more gas stoves.
Speaker 9 (13:41):
That tried to ban those, and I still think they
banned them in California. Next up, Yeah, that's right, no cooking,
no cooking, no cooking for the climate.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
That's right.
Speaker 9 (13:53):
I guess cooking releases volatile organic compounds that contribute to
oz own pollution. According to n O a A researchers, Yeah,
they found that potent and often pungent volatile organic compounds
given off from cooking food are now responsible for over
(14:15):
a quarter of the ozone production. It's actually more than cars.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
That's it. We're just gonna be chewing on carrots like bugs.
Speaker 9 (14:21):
Bunny Watchdog on Wall Street dot Com.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Down on the They take it.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
They look at life. This says to speak, they see it.
To stay.
Speaker 10 (15:01):
You want to play anyway?
Speaker 1 (15:08):
News Radio fifteen eighty one hundred point nine FM WCCF
ten twenty five here at Charlotte County speaks Little Jackson Brown.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Jackson Brown, Yes, and it was on this day. Here's
an interesting one for you. On this day nineteen eighty
A twenty eight year old Joseph Riviera held up the
Asylum Records Office in New York and demanded to see
either Jackson Brown or the Eagles. Riviera wanted to talk
to them to see if they would finance his trucking operation.
(15:40):
He gave himself up when he was told that neither
act was in town at the time.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
For free. Nobody gets it.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
And that's what Mike, That's what Joseph Riviera found out.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Yeah, buddy, not even mister Riviera.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
You're going to jail. You get that rat for free.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Oh, Jackson he's still around. Yeah, cleaned up his act,
did he He was? Uh, he was with Daryl Hannah
for a while. Do you know who now is? You
don't know who Darrel? Now you look at Daryl Hannah
and then think what we would have said about Daryl
Hannah back in the eighties.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
Okay, hold on, Jackson Brown is seventy six right now. Okay,
he was born in Germany. That's interesting, really, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
That's cool. Yeah, he's liked him. He had some his
live stuff is great.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
Yeah, he had some.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Good albums, but he puts on a really good live show.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
I remember I watched the Eagles documentary because they lived
in the apartment next to his. In the beginning, Yeah,
when they were when they were backing up Linda Ronstadt
and uh Henley. Yeah, Henley was talking about how he
can't listen to Doctor My Eyes because he just heard
Jackson Brown every day play that opening line, like trying
(17:02):
to write this song, and it's like, dude, I think
you got it.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
That's cool. Yeah, two six, fifteen eighty toll free eight
aight eight four four one fifteen eighty seven forty five
this morning. Okay, Well, what the heck?
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Oh I see Daryl Hannon. Yes, Okay to that, we.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Say nice to the gateway ponded.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Florida Governor Ronda Santis has an idea for how to
deal with the multiple judges he keeps trying to stand
in the way of President Trump's agenda. These jihad kamikaze
judges who won Bossberg completely out of his element based
on what he's trying to fight.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
Yeah, they're trying to say a district court judge has
the same amount of.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Foreign and the act that he's that that Trump is
using is there is, there can be, It's already been determined,
there will be no judicial review of this act. Correct,
that's already been determined. Bossberg should know that he's playing
on the fact that you're too stupid to know.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
That, and the Liberals are way too stupid.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Yes, and then we got that other jihad kamikaze judge
who's trying to say you must refund USAID because it's
Congress's job, because Congress enacted USAID. That also is a lie.
It was enacted by Kennedy under an executive order which
President Trump rescinded.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
Acdam story.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
How about now, guys can't figure it out yet you
get nothing, you lose good Daycer DeSantis suggests that these
judges should be stripped of their jurisdiction by Congress. Hear, hear,
and he even has a way to make that happen.
(18:56):
Something certainly needs to be done. These kamikaze jihad judges
have no respect for the actual law. They think that
they have more power than a sitting president, which they don't,
and they need to be brought to heal one way
or the other. As aspects of Trump's agenda are stymied
by these jihad judges. Governor DeSantis has suggested Congress strip
(19:17):
them of their jurisdiction. Yeah, quote, Congress has the authority
to strip jurisdiction of the federal courts to decide these
cases in the first place. This sabotaging of President Trump's
agenda by resistance judges was predictable. Why no jurisdictions stripping
bills teed up at the onset of this Congress? Why not?
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Huh?
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Yeah, that's what he asked on the X yesterday. When
someone responded by asking how such a move could pass
when sixty votes sixty votes would be needed to push
it through the Senate, Desantas applied attach it to a
must pass bill.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Yeah, do what the Democrats do? Yeah, yeah, just about
you just play the same game, grow a spine.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Get a pair of balls there, mister Mikey Mike, Yeah,
the the speaker, little little Mikey Mike and the speaker.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
Bunch, and Trump just stares at these judges and say.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
No, no about now about no.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
Zip it, zipp it zip zip No no about how
about you zip it?
Speaker 1 (20:26):
I mean, these guys are just disgusting. And then you
got the Letitia, the hungry hippo James with a mortgage
fraud alert. Oh, here's the question. They're acting, uh, here
we go, Yeah, we could do it. Here's the question, Yes,
(20:48):
did la chi did la cheat? Letitia James marry? I
can't believe it because it sounds so much like uh
el omar did uh Letitia James marry her father? Now
this from Joel Gilbert, who says, my recent relevations in
(21:09):
the Gateway Pundit demonstrated that New York Attorney General Letitia
James obtained a federal government hamp loan in twenty eleven
to refinance her apartment building based on false unit information
and a highly questionable hardship claim. In her loan documents,
James claimed her multi family apartment building at Lafayette Avenue
(21:30):
in Brooklyn had only four units, even though the official
certificate of a occupancy indicates five apartments. This may seem
a minor point, but james false claim helped her obtain
a two point seven percent government backed hamp loan, unavailable
to landlords with more than four apartments in a given building.
(21:51):
So if she'd had told the truth and had five apartments,
she wouldn't have been able to get the loan. Of course,
James also claimed financial hardship to qualify for the loan
despite an income in twenty eleven of over one hundred
and twenty six thousand, three hundred and ninety dollars, so
there seems to be a pattern of possible mortgage fraud
(22:12):
in regards to Letitia the Hungary Hippo James, new questions
have arisen about a home she purchased with her father,
Robert James, in the spring of eighty three. Latisha was
twenty four living in Brooklyn with her parents. She graduated
from College of New York's Layman College in nineteen eighty one.
She wouldn't begin law school at Howard University until nineteen
(22:34):
eighty four, and according to New York City Department of
Finance records, on May twentieth, nineteen eighty three, Letitia James
and her father, Robert James, took out a real estate
loan from Cadillac Funding Limited for thirty thousand, three hundred
dollars as husband and wife. For the record, Lytisa James
mother is Nellie James, not Letitia. Photographic evidence screenshots of
(23:03):
both signed documents. Husband and wife designation is clear and
in capital letters at the very top of the first
page of the loan document and on the signature page
which reads Robert James and Letitia James Comma his wife.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
Quote huh.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
The loan was used to purchase a small eight hundred
and eighty eight square foot two story home at one
fourteen oh four Inwood Street, and Queen's likely for Letitia
to live in. Meanwhile, the deed for the property executed
on the same day as a different designation. On the top,
it says property is being purchased by Robert James and
Letitia James his daughter. Humph So at twenty four she
(23:49):
might have had trouble qualifying for a home loan as
a single woman with little to no income, so Daddy
puts her as his wife to get the loan and
then deeds.
Speaker 3 (23:59):
How over to her of course.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Mortgage fraud, Seize them, seize them lies, just such, seize them?
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Yes, gee more what's the doge line? Waste, fraud and abuse?
I just you know, yeah, come on, it's just it's
like they can't they learned nothing. They learn absolutely nothing.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Yep, they learned nothing.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
Sad pathetic. Yes, let's see where Oh good news really
disappointed quote unquote. The San fran Pride Parade is short
on funds because corporate sponsors no longer want to be
associated with it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, they learned maybe they
(24:48):
don't need to have Like.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
I'm sure you didn't get the memo. The DEI is over.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
Yeah, sorry, we're going in a different direction. So the
annual celebrat ration of debauchery and scat Francisco, Uh, the
country's most notoriously debased gay sex parade, is scrambling for
three hundred thousand dollars after major corporate sponsors have after years,
dropped out. Some corporations are done being associated, uh Francis.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
It was it was a costly prospect here, yeah, because
there you see all these corporations. One they got to
hire some DEI idiot and it's some it's some stupid
annual salary over one hundred grand a year, right, And.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
Then they got and told the company, oh, you know,
you should really sponsor a pride parade.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yeah, and they do.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
And then they got to have they got to have
all these little sit in meetings where everybody's told, you know,
how what a white supremacist, racist, evil person they are
and that they need to denounce themselves. And that's over.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
Yeah, it's over. So San Francisco. Pride's executive director, Suzanne
Ford told the outlet that she was really disappointed by
the sponsor's decision, and some of the sponsors that pulled
out include Comcast, Annheuser Busch Wine.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Yeah, we're just finally starting to get back to parody.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
You need to check. How about new wine company La
Crema uh and uh Diego or Dago, the beverage company
known for producing They produced Guinness so whatever whatever parent company.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
That is, and got another one here too. I might
be able to start eating Ben and Jerry's again.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
Oh I just heard. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
They Ben and Jerry's parent company has outsted its far
left CEO and demands dismantling of the brand's progressive values. Yayn't,
don't worry whatever whatever liberals you lose, you'll be picked
up by the rest of us.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
Ben and Jerry exactly.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
They but they've always been roke. I mean even when
Ben and Jerry ran it, they were whoa oh yeah,
but they got much.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
I mean woke. They had a Bernie Sanders ice cream,
didn't they. Yes, yeah, so, I mean, come on, notorious,
But it was good ice cream.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
I will give you that. I used to enjoy eating
it was expensive, but it was it was worth every
four thousand calories. But they claimed in a filing the
U S District Court for the Southern District of New York,
that Unilever, the UK based consumer giant behind brands like
Marmite and Dove, sought to prevent the company's leadership from
making political statements. These included statements critical of President Trump.
(27:37):
Hw On new Rada Mettal, the chair of Ben and
Jerry's independent board, wrote in the court filing, Dave has
courageously advanced the company's social mission and values, has continued
to drive innovation and in its super premium product range,
and has delivered strong financial results far out pacing the
(27:57):
rest of unilevers ice cream brand. However, why yeah, what
Dave hasn't done is what Unilever would like him to do,
which is to oversee the dismantling of Ben and Jerry's
mission progressive values. And that is why the independent board
has sued Unilever and why Unilever is seeking to punish
the chief executive. Unilever has repeatedly threatened Ben and Jerry's personnel,
(28:18):
including CEO David Stever, should they fail to comply with
Unilever's efforts to silence the Social Mission on three March.
You never informed the Independent Board that they were removing
and replacing mister Stever as Ben and Jerry's CEO.
Speaker 3 (28:32):
And once again, what does that sound like? It sounds
like the event. No, not only that, but it sounds
like the event you mentioned in the beginning of the
show of the guy who was I'm not leaving. I'm
gonna do this. We're a wol company. No, you don't
work here anymore because you suck and we're losing money
because of you. So you are no longer associated with us.
(28:55):
Get out.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Yeah, because I think they could grow their brand much
bigger if they weren't, if maybe they really that I
think they have.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
Well, their companies are making a lot of money, and
at the end of the day, that's what these companies
care about, is the bottom line.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Well, because over the years, Ben and Jerry's has publicly
supported been very publicly vocal about defending the police, Black
Lives Matter, they halted sales in Israel settlements as part
of a boycott that they promoted open borders, and they
advocated for radical climate change.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
So you know, go woke, go broke.
Speaker 1 (29:31):
You never did a very good thing there, and I
would expect that they're you know what, I'm gonna wait
and find out who they install. I'm going to give
it a week. Yes, but I could be buying some
Ben and Jerry.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
It's true. I never buy Ben Jerry.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
I used to. When I lived in San Diego, there
was about two blocks from my apartment there was like
the Ben and Jerry's ice cream shop. Yeah, brick and mortar.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Yeah, oh yeah, which Saint Armine Circle has one? Yeah, yeah,
it's always tempting.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
It is. Oh yeah, if you right now, yes, woke
or kill one's going to kills one to the kills yes,
end of story.
Speaker 6 (30:07):
I'm the dude, So that's what you call me, you
know that, or his dude miss or dudah or you
know el dud Reno.
Speaker 5 (30:17):
If you're not into the whole brevity thing.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
We'll be right back.
Speaker 8 (30:20):
Which Charlotte County speaks on news radio fifteen eighty WCCF.
Speaker 11 (30:27):
Now, I've worked in food service. I served two tours
in bagel shops, and the first one was in college
at a place called Begel and Deli.
Speaker 10 (30:37):
And in college, the way that I ate it was
almost as if a single dad lived inside of me,
and he would just whisper for stuff.
Speaker 11 (30:49):
Like what your mom say you can't have? And I say,
I sing cake, batter, cookie dough. She tells me to
slow down when I'm eating.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
He's like, yeah, but what does she know?
Speaker 11 (31:05):
So he got two weekends a month, but full custody
of what I eat in the dark. And and then
I graduated, and then I just transferred to a bigger
bagel shop in Chicago. There I continue to serve bagels
straight to my face, and I got pretty chubby, so
(31:28):
chubby that I remember hopping onto the scale and I
looked down at the scale and it said one night,
And I thought, can.
Speaker 10 (31:37):
We get.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Waited? This is what's called a train wreck segue. Yeah, yeah,
Oh Monday.
Speaker 8 (32:05):
De my song.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
News Radio fifteen eighty one hundred point nine FM, WCCF
ten forty seven. Here Charlotte County speaks with tears in heaven.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Yes. And it was unfortunately on this day in nineteen
ninety one, that Eric Clapton's four year old son Connor,
passed away in New York City. Clapton had taken him
to the circus the previous evening, and of course the
tragedy inspired this song. It's called Circus, I believe, or
Night at Night at the Circus or Leaving the Circus,
something like that on one of those albums. And also
(32:39):
My Father's Eyes and Steve Feroni playing drums on the
MTV Unplugged concert as well.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
Yeah, and also on this day, lots of historical, lots
of historic stuff he could have done. Clap Historically, you
picked the quint essentially worst moment in his life to
bring the show down here.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
And you saved it for last. You could have gotten
it out of the way earlier. But no, you gotta
talk about it now.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
Well, actually I was gonna grab another song and just
forgot about it.
Speaker 3 (33:11):
Yeah, I figured. But also on this day, in nineteen
sixty eight, during Clapton's Cream years, Eric Clapton, Neil Young
Jim Messina were arrested in Los Angeles for quote being
at a place where it was suspected marriajajuana was being used.
And where's the.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
Bite marijuana, the burning weed when its roots in hell?
Speaker 3 (33:36):
It's my favorite. Clapton was later found innocent and the
others paid small fines, so Clapton got off.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
Oh god, these lefties. It doesn't stop, doesn't No, We've
got Don Lemon trying to stay on them, Don Lemon
trying to stay relevant again. Gay reporter Don Lemon claims
that women sexually harassed him at CNN. Oh Man, and Uh,
(34:06):
I love how Michael Schwartz uh encapsulates this. Every now
and then, the viewing public is viewing public witnesses a
future where are they now? Story unfolding in real time.
One can hardly mistake the signs a thirst for attention,
an exaggerated sense of self importance, and the persecution complex.
Speaker 3 (34:29):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
In the most recent episode of Bill Maher's Club Random podcast,
Openly Gay former CNN host Don Lemon, don't.
Speaker 3 (34:38):
You love how they have to have? Like the whole
that whole title.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
Whole title, whole title former, openly gay former.
Speaker 3 (34:45):
Yeah, Like, wait a second, where's the comma?
Speaker 1 (34:50):
And why are they all caps? Is sounded like a
man standing on the precipice of irrelevance with one of
his Dahlemon sounded like a man standing on the precipice
of irrelevance with one foot on a banana peel as
(35:10):
he related two strange stories of women who allegedly sexually
harassed him during his time at the Establishment Network. Lemon
began by describing an incident in the CNN cafeteria long ago.
Quote this woman, young lady, tweaked my nipples and said, oh,
it's cold in here, Leamon said in a viral clip
posted on x and I said, quote you realize that
(35:34):
if I did that, they'd be walking me out of
the door right now. But I didn't care. Go to HR.
I didn't say anything because it's like it's a double standard.
At that point, Mark clearly recognized small potatoes when fed them.
Quote good for you, because who gives Before Lamon interrupted him.
Then former CNN host told a cryptic sounding story about
(35:56):
a divorced female coworker who allegedly he asked him but
he didn't say how and quote, and she knew I
was gay. Of course, Maris sounded confused due to the
lack of detail what constituted this harassment? Mar asked again.
Laman provided no details. Having mentioned the incident, he apparently
preferred to remain vague. He's just trying to remain relevant,
(36:22):
and he isn't anymore relevant. He should just be happy
with the relevant that he's receiving from Bill Maher, he should.
Speaker 3 (36:32):
Just I.
Speaker 1 (36:34):
Have to give some BS story.
Speaker 3 (36:36):
Yeah, with Bill Maher still being not that relevant either.
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Yes, losing relevancy.
Speaker 3 (36:42):
I would also uh like to mention again with how
dangerous the left is being with the terrorism. It's it's
going to continue, but the swatting, as the swattings that
have been happening, those are extremely dangerous. That's attempted murder
because these people are calling and hoping that the police
(37:02):
will knock down.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
Your door door and then you freak out and grab
a gun because you don't you don't know who it is,
and they blow you away.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
Yeah, and to them it's a win win because a
conservative influencer gets whack and.
Speaker 1 (37:14):
You can't tell me. And if they can't find out
who's doing it, you can't tell me. Yeah, you can
can't find out who's doing it exactly. They know who's
doing it and so they can find them.
Speaker 3 (37:24):
We talked about it when the assassination attempt happened on
Trump the first time, that things are only going to
get worse. Yes, we won and we continue to win,
but understand.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Don't get cocky because it ain't over.
Speaker 3 (37:39):
It ain't over. This is just the beginning because this violence,
this is what leads to winning unrest, gave us the
winning Civil War. Well it started by the left. I'm
not saying it started by It'll be.
Speaker 1 (37:52):
Ended in short order. These guys haven't been punched in
the face yet. And this is my issue mainly is
like with the Fort Myers thing, right, these low level,
low level, loser liberal elected officials who think that they
can thwart the will of not only the people, but
of the law of the state of Florida. And my
(38:13):
other problem with that is I think personally that police
chiefs need to be elected, just like sheriffs need to
be elected, because what you see in appointed police chiefs
are usually union desk butts who are being manipulated by
the city council in some fashion. Yeah, and I don't
(38:36):
like I don't like that because then you get that's
what's happening in blue cities. It's what's happening in New
York and Baltimore. Most of the stuff that, most of
this violent stuff that's that's happening is going to happen
in blue cities. There's going to be some outliers, Yeah,
but I think once a couple of those outliers face
some harsh pushback and some jail time. It's going to
(38:58):
start settling down, but it's it's they're only gonna get
crazier here. But we do have good news. There is
good news, and we have to get to it.
Speaker 3 (39:05):
Good news.
Speaker 1 (39:06):
Ryan Parenthood is shutting down a major baby killing operation
in Manhattan.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
Good excellent, good news. That is awesome.
Speaker 1 (39:15):
Yes, Planned Parenthood's Greater New York PPG NY announced it
would be selling it's thirty nine million dollars SOHO building
located on Bleeker Street, and take its behemoth baby killing
operation out of New York's Manhattan Borough. They say it's
only a temporary pause, as we know how much they
love killing babies. Correct, but nonetheless good news for now.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
Very good news. We speaking of the Tesla thing, the
trans Tesla vandal who allegedly threw Molotov cocktails at cars,
lives with mom and calls herself baby and where's the dress?
And it's very and is a.
Speaker 1 (39:51):
Complete and utter psycho because transgenderism is so they are
finding mental illness.
Speaker 3 (39:57):
Yes, and now it's time for.

couple of times and it it gets very windy.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
But Dodge City, Kansas, which has Kansas which has an
average yeah, flat land, you know, wind gets whipping. I
guess average speed of thirteen point nine miles an hour.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (40:31):
Number two. Sports Illustrated once determined that their cover is
a jinx thirty seven percent of the time, about two
of every five people or teams that they put on
the cover went on to lose or fail.
Speaker 3 (40:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
Number three. In nineteen eighty three, before Michael Bolton was famous,
he auditioned to replace Hassy Osborne is the lead singer
of Black Sabbath. Number four, Nintendo named Mario to the
landlord of their first warehouse, Mario Sagale. It was a
way to get an extension on paying rent.
Speaker 3 (41:08):
Ah nice.
Speaker 1 (41:10):
And finally, number five of your five random facts, Art
Garfunkel has a master's in mathematics and was working on
his PhD when he quit to focus on his music career.
And there are your five random facts.
Speaker 3 (41:24):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (41:25):
So there.
Speaker 3 (41:25):
Switzerland buys one hundred and seventeen million dollar luxury jet.
That's too big. For the Capitol's runways or hangers I
think they need.
Speaker 1 (41:36):
Of course, yeah, of course, a lot of idiots. I
you know, I don't like them, and I you know,
I have tattoos. I got a couple, but there are
places that you generally don't see him and my tattoos
mean something. I just didn't get him because oh I
thought it looked cute.
Speaker 3 (41:53):
I got a Mermaid because I liked it.
Speaker 1 (41:55):
There's meaning behind him, as most tattoos you see on
particularly ladies, have no meeting at all.
Speaker 3 (42:00):
They're just there too, like flowers, flower or whatever.
Speaker 1 (42:04):
But anyway, flower, have you ever really wanted a cool
arm sleeve tattoo? No, but there's a lot of people
out there who want tattoos but can't take the pain
correct And there's nothing worse than have it As a
tattoo artist, there's nothing worse than having some freak on.
And I've watched ink Masters enough to know having some
(42:26):
somebody who just hurts, they start sweating, or they pass out.
You can now it's gonna cost you more money, but
you can now be put under. Just like a dentistry,
you can get put under there. You go anesthesia to
get your tattoo going into general. So that's what I want.
And then and that's the anesthesiologist working at a tattoo. Yeah, hey,
(42:52):
I'm making bank man.
Speaker 3 (42:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (42:54):
Gets that's good stuff here, I'm telling you. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (43:01):
And as Tesla just posted on X six hours ago,
smile you're on camera. Elon retweeted and said, Tesla's century
mode captures video of anyone attempting to harm it bad
news for criminals.
Speaker 1 (43:14):
I can't believe people didn't know that already. Well, something
we missed. Some good news here. Happy International Day of Happiness.
That's what the un UN designated made it a holiday
in twenty twelve to promote the idea that happiness is
a basic human Oh god.

Pursuit of happiness. Nobody's guaranteed it. You make it yourself.
Speaker 1 (43:39):
Indeed, the New England Aquarium just built a retirement community
for penguins. The rock slopes are more gradual and they
don't have to deal with all the nonsense that younger
penguins have to. The first six just moved in. They're
doing great. Their species has an average lifespan of ten
to fifteen years, but most of them are already twice
that old.
Speaker 3 (43:58):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (43:59):
The youngest twenty nine, The oldest is thirty four.
Speaker 3 (44:02):
Did they put the bar in the shower for him?

They say the penguin should be happier there. It's also
easier to do things for the people taking care of them,
to give them their daily meds, daily.
Speaker 3 (44:14):
