That's pretty obvious.
Guilty, like they told the jury.
Hey, you saw him beat and kickhis ex-girlfriend.
He's not charged with assaultand battery.
He's not charged with domesticviolence.
So you can't just look at thoseand just go, okay, so he's not

(00:43):
a nice guy, so he's not the bestperson.
But you can't conv.
Look at those and just go, okay, so he's not a nice guy, so
he's not the best person, butyou can't convict on that.
No, did you have reasonabledoubts?
You had the evidence.
Did they prove burden of proofof, you know, racketeering?
Beyond the what is it Sextrafficking Extortion.
Did they have proof of any ofthat?
They thought no, Even thoughthey probably wanted to convict.

(01:03):
They didn't.
You know, you got to follow therule of law.
I guess I don't know, or eitheryou pay them off.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
It seems that these days you can get away with just
about anything.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
Just ask.
Oj.
Well, we can't, he's dead.
Okay, Ask Trump Once.
That goes back to the get yourmoney of course, or presidential
power.
Drop all my charges.
I can do that because that's me.
I'm the king.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
Because you know I'm the best king there can be.
And they say I'm a nice king.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
So I think people are , I don't know, conflicted.
Some think, okay, justice wasserved.
I don't know, but youed.
Some think, okay, justice wasserved.
I don't know, but he stillfaces.
I think he had a hearing today.
Can he get out of bail?
The answer is I don't know.
They really wanted that beforesentencing.
Give him time to get the hellout of here With the charges he
has now.
He could be sentenced up to 10years, Max.

(02:01):
Will he get it?
If the judge didn't like him?
Yeah, give him the 10.
Would he like it?
He's going to serve some jailtime.
He should, Maybe.
What do you think?
Two to three, Three to five?

Speaker 1 (02:11):
We're taking bets?
Yeah, three to five.
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
What are the odds of three to five, two to one?
Okay, bless your bet Go.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
Tell us what you think and you know what.
We have a brand new email whichI'm really excited about Go
ahead.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
Tell us what email is .
It's kind of strange, Johnny.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Go ahead, it's not.
It's not if you think incontents Okay, the guys at
thecancelledradioguyscom Is thiscalled the guys?
Yeah, no, that's who you'resending it to.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
I could change it to.
That sounds like you're goingto get confused.
It's like a gay porn site.
Send it to the guys.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Well, we'll send that on to the gay porn site.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
I don't care, probably has more people than we
do, so okay.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
Exactly.
You see, it'll work out justfine.
Yeah, it'd be the P Diddysexual gratification email.
That's a bit of a mouthful.

Speaker 2 (03:04):
Let us know.
I mean personally.
I mean he's a shit of a person.
Okay, I'm disappointed, I mean.
But once again I was evenasking as the trial was going on
.
They're showing a lot of stuff,man.
He abused a lot of people, hepaid people to have say all this
stuff, but where's the sextrafficking thing at?
You know when is theracketeering at?

(03:25):
I keep waiting to see.
I can't pay attention every day, but enough to know that they
haven't really brought that upso much.
I guess the jury felt the sameway.
So I don't know, I guess, areyou bummed?

Speaker 1 (03:40):
No, I thought he's got a very punchable face.
I would like to punch him inthe face.
That would be one thing, justfor being who he is.
We should put a.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
Pistidi punching bag on our website.
That would be great, yeah, justlog on, leave a comment and
just go.
Yeah, do, Do.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
Okay, and so what's our email address?
Mr Beatty, Can you rememberthat far back?

Speaker 2 (04:05):
The guys.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
Yes, theguys at thecancelledradioguyscom All
right.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
It's very important there.

Speaker 1 (04:16):

I don't think.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
Actually we're paying .

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Yeah, actually we are yeah we're paying, that's okay.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
That's all right.
I mean, everyone's been outthere following this thing and
it's kind of like with OJ.
There were people ecstatic andcheering.
I don't think there's beenthere's that many people on the
plus side.
But I think it's more of like ashock and awe type of thing.
If you have money, if you havepower, even though he's not
totally clean with the whitesentencing, and then we'll maybe

(04:53):
have a judgment on that, but ifhe gets home, confinement,
anchor bracelet, two yearsprobation, you'd be a good boy.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
He'll just pay somebody to be pissed off.
He'll pay somebody to wear hisbracelet for him, like, in fact,
in Japan not Japan, but inChina, you know, they have
people who do people's time forthem.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
They get paid to you know, that sounds like a legal
thing in China, though.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
Well, it's supposed to be illegal, but it happens
all the time.
Like these big bosses, they getconvicted of something and say,
hey, that guy looks like me.

Speaker 2 (05:26):
Send him to jail.
Well, if Piss Diddy called yousince you guys look the same
would you serve his time?
For him he goes.
Okay, I got three years.
I'll give you a million buckswaiting for you when you get out
.
Would you do that?
Heck, no, no.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
I'm being nice, I'm not saying fuck, no, you could
buy a home that's not near atree so they don't fall on your
house.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
That would make about a million.
Oh God, you serving time forpiss.
Denny, A little blackface Imean, you know.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
Oh, there you go.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
It would be hard to tell the difference Black up
Hard to tell the difference.

Speaker 1 (05:55):
I got a neighbor who could pass for them you were
talking about Pookie, you hadyour neighbor.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Yeah, yeah, it's like I'm flicking around streaming
last night, okay, so this is howfrustrating it is.
So I click on Hulu.
What's on Hulu?
The number two show on Hulu,the Christie's.
You know Really Life afterimprisonment.
I went no Already.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
Damn.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
So I pay for Hulu, so I just click on there.
I hate to have to do thatbecause they're going there.
There's another one, maybewe'll reach number one, and
there they are.
It's just the biggest piece ofcrap.
And they, of course, don'tadmit guilt.
So I see that last night, todaywe get the crappy verdict on
Piss Diddy, okay, and on top ofthat, okay and this happened a

(06:37):
couple days ago, but it becameofficial today the prosecution
offered Brian Kohlberger, whowas the guy suspected of not
suspected anymore killing fourcollege students up in Idaho, I
mean four people he didn't know,four innocent kids, just you
know just what.
So we were denied the trial tosee, maybe get some answers.

(06:59):
The families, each familymember of all four, extremely
pissed off.
They went you screwed us, wedon't have justice.
We said over and over to theprosecution no deal, no deal, no
deal.
And the deal was you confessedto all four murders and all the
charges against you and deathpenalty is off the table For you
, sir, life in prison.

(07:19):
That's ridiculous.
I'm pissed off today.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
What makes you angry?
I'm a triple header.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
I go to Hulu and there's the Chrissies and
they're going life afterimprisonment.
I'm going stop.
He's probably, the dad'sprobably going, the husband and
I go back.
It was fun.
It was so much fun.
They called me rump ranger, andof course I had to watch that.
And today Brian Colbert makes adeal fun in there.
It was so much fun.
They called me Rump Ranger, andso then of course I had to
watch that.
And then today the piss-dirtyverdict.
And today Brian Colbert makes adeal.

(07:50):
No trial for us, and to sparehis life, it's kind of like the
trial we were robbed of here inColorado.
Remember that guy, chris Watts,who killed his wife and two
daughters?
He stuffed them down an oilpipe.
His daughters, okay, to hidetheir bodies Suffocated.
His wife dumped her out in thegrave near where his daughters
were okay.
And he gets on TV going ohplease, come home, where are you

(08:11):
?
We all want you back.
The usual crap.
And of course they startedpresenting the evidence and so
to take the death penalty offthe table.
He confessed as well too, andhe's a hero because they think
he's kind of a good-looking guy.
So you get these women who sendhim all these solicitation
letters in the mail all the time.
I'm sure Chris did.
He gets the same.
You know, when Chris was in I'msure he got all the boys

(08:32):
sending letters to him.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Yeah, I would imagine so.
Yeah, probably in the specialwing.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
Yeah, Love to get to know your backside Excuse me,
let me rub you a little around.
Ooh, nice twitch, that's why Igot the triple header going for
me today.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
I see I am sorry.
Things are that bad, Wellaren't?

Speaker 2 (08:51):
you pissed off over the Kohlberger thing.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
Why would they?

Speaker 2 (08:56):
make a deal like that , of course they go.
Oh, we're saving millions ofdollars from having to go to
court.
How much are you going to payto keep the bastard alive?
He's not old, what 30?
Court?
How much are?

Speaker 1 (09:07):
you going to pay to keep the bastard alive.
He's not old, so why didn't heget like a?
What do they call it federalmanslaughter or something?
There's a federal charge, whichmeans you're going to get the
death penalty irregardless.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
The prosecution took it off the table.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
They're the ones who offered the deal to him.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
They're thinking a trial would be.
They said we're trying to sparethe families so you don't have
to look at the pictures.
And they're going.
We've seen the pictures.
We want stinking justice.
Our kids are all dead.
He now gets to go.
Have you want to call it a life?
He'll have contact with people,he'll be able to do this or
whatever, and those kids aregone.
And why the hell would theymake a deal like that?

(09:50):
We're saving the taxpayersmillions of dollars by not
having a trial, instead feedinghim, housing him, make sure he
gets medical.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Exactly, he gets medical and visual and probably
gets a dentist thrown in theretoo.
All that stuff.
It's just not fair.
In the meantime, can?

Speaker 2 (10:12):
I say I'm pissed.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
I'm pissed.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
You know how to end that, though.
There's a way that you canshorten down the so called life
sentence Hire a sniper.
No, put them in generalpopulation After a couple of
days there you go, guys like himprobably take care of it.
Guys like him will be solitaryconfinement, 23 hours a day, one
hour a day out for exercise andstuff by himself.

(10:37):
They don't put guys like thatin general population because
shake, shake, shake, you know.
So every time they do that'swhat happens.
Remember Whitey Bulger?
Solitary confinement oh, yeah,yeah.
New prison first aid.
Let's tell my generalpopulation dead.
Okay, Jeffrey Dahmer, you knowseclusion?
Oh, he's okay.
Put him out there dead.
That's how you shorten thisthing.

(10:58):
Kohlberger, gp, generalpopulation, as soon as they get
his ass in there, okay, yeah,that'd be cool, that's what they
should In prison.
A guy like P Diddy would be arock star.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
He'd be a hero If he went to public, into general
population.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Oh yeah, you could put him in general population,
he'd be like a rock star hero.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
Oh yeah, he'd sit in his little cell, you know, like
lording over everybody, daddy.
Yeah, so here we are with thecanceled radio guys.
And for those of you thathaven't met us before, chris and
I worked together about 30years ago.
I thought I'd just give you alittle bit of history so you

(11:36):
understand why we're called whatwe are.
And one day I thought it'd befun to throw a pie in Chris's
wife's face and he didn't thinkit was funny.
Well, he did, but he couldn'tadmit it.
She didn't.

Speaker 2 (11:49):
God.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
I could have used one back then too.
Yeah, so there we go, I gotfired, and so it goes on.
30 years later, we got backtogether again and said, hey,
let's buy a radio station.
And then that burnt to theground.
And then that burnt to theground and they said let's do a
podcast.
And that's where you are today,ladies and germs, many years
into this, we've done this quitea long time now.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
We're a canceled radio guy's release.
We're not called inmates, Idon't know.
Chris Diddy, hopefully inmate.
Cole Booger, definitelylifelong inmate.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
Yeah, let's talk about that.
I'm sorry.
No, he'll never get out.
Pete Diddy probably will, andmaybe somebody will take his ass
.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
The life sentence cost Stella for him.
Those charges are gone.
The maximum he can get is 10years.
That's it Doesn't mean he'sgoing to get it, but that's the
maximum the judge can give.
They are allowed to go abovethe guidelines, which is above
10.
They can do that if they want,but they just rarely do.
He's already been up there.

(12:53):
He prays before court every daywith his family, a little
hand-holding session.
He's playing it up.
He's contrite until he gets outand has his first freedom freak
offer Could be with himself,because willing participants
will probably be none unless hebrings out this.
I'm paying.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
Now I don't relate it kind of relate the story
because it's like jail.
But you know they've been and Iremember hearing this and going
oh that's bullshit, they're notreally doing it, bullshit.
Yeah, exactly, i'm're notreally doing it, bullshit.
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2 (13:30):

Speaker 1 (13:30):
Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit, building these
concentration camps.
They are actually doing it now.

Speaker 2 (13:40):
Yeah, and they're doing it very quickly to get
ready, because they want to putpeople in there as fast as they
can.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
You know, I was wondering when my guys didn't
turn up to work this morning.
I thought perhaps the guys towork on the roof.
The guy goes oh, don't worry.
He says I've been here fouryears, I've got a green card.
I said it means nothing, pal,it doesn't mean anything.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
So they build the swampy prison there.
It's supposed to be likeAlcatraz used to be there,
saying we'll save tons of moneybecause we don't need guards.
Let them try to get out and getthe hell out of there, because
you're in the middle of theEverglades, gators, massive
pythons and whatever else is outthere.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Yeah, man-eating pythons, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
Are they going to put people like Kohlberger in there

creek.
