Speaker 1 (00:00):
Scott Vordies this Friday night. It's going to be very exciting,
not just the first game at Memorial Stadium between two
ranked teams in several years. I forget how many years
it's been since Sean Callahan it's been since this has
happened at Memorial Stadium. It's been a long time, almost
(00:21):
a decade. But also we have some special guests this
Friday night. It turns out, Lucy, that several members of
Hesblah are coming to the University of Nebraska as far
as you know. And this is because we've got a
lot of you know, Free Palestine aka anti Israel type
(00:44):
protesters at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln, and so
that student group is bringing in members of Hesblah. I
can't wait to hear it as they all assemble at
Memorial Stadium on Friday.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Wow. Oh, that last pager was a doozy.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
So that's gonna be the sound on Friday night as
has Belahs trying to make their way to the West
Stadium or wherever it is that they'll be sitting probably
over there in the student sections. Now, if you're going
to the game on Friday, has Belah is not going
to be there. I just was thinking about what can
I do with one of my favorite sound effects, and
(01:48):
I remembered the old U n L Exploding fight song
as Hes Belas make it their way to the stadium.
Oh hang on, my uber driver just sent me a page.
I should not think this is so funny, but this
is so funny. This is a model. You know, we
(02:11):
grow up. Who's our oldest listener listening to this program today?
Let's check with his former title was the director of
promotions here now he's customer relations with news Radio eleven
ten KFA B Mark Higginbotham?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Mark? How many? Who's our oldest listener? Right now?
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Mark is informing me that no one is listening to
our show right now?
Speaker 3 (02:39):
Did you just call me no one? I am a person.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
I asked you for a number between one and four,
and you said seven, because you're not listening to the
show either, I am.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
So.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
It doesn't matter how old you are, whether you are
just a tyke, a toddler, or whether you are basic
in the same capacity as your average two year old
stumble around. Someone's got to look out for you. You
can't keep down solid food, you know, but you're a
lot o you're one hundred years older, you still grew
(03:13):
up learning about the Trojan horse, this wonderful event in
world history that apparently happened one time where the enemy
went up to where an army went up to their
enemy and said, we got something for you, guys. It's
a giant statue of a hollowed out horse. Wouldn't you
(03:35):
like this? We'll just wheel it on in here. And
they're like, well, that's nice, a big horse.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Don't you have holes in that story all over the place.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Like the guy who tried to take out Trump at
the golf course who had a horse and is living,
and some people want just a big horse around. And
so then they wheeled it into the walled compound and
then the soldiers jump out and went ah ah ah
a and they came out, and I don't really know
(04:07):
what was what going on there, but it was apparently
a pretty good ruse, the Trojan horse. Centuries later, it's
still a euphemism for a fake out, a ruse, But
like in times of military, no one does anything like
that anymore. Until suddenly someone showed up in Lebanon at
(04:31):
Hesbilla camp and said, guys, guess what we just got
a whole shipment. It was sent here from Izraeli someone
who's a big fan of ours and says, you guys
are doing great. Here's a really great form of communication
in the nineteen eighties. It's pagers. Wouldn't you like pagers?
(04:55):
And so these guys are like cool new pagers and
their texting each other, you know, like they're they're hanging out.
And suddenly one of them sends a message to its
buddies pagers tending right next to him as a hot
chick walks by, and it says eight zero zero eight
nine to one one, And you're like, what did get it?
(05:17):
If you don't get it, good for you, you know. So
you know, it's it's just it's awesome. They just got
all these pagers and I'll give them out to everyone
and you can all be coordinated for the next attack.
The pagers appear to be marked with the Taiwanese brand
of gold Apollo.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
That sounds oh yeah, gold Apollo.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
That sounds fake. Right there, That's.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
What I used to carry. Oh, and I carried a beeper.
Are these pagers or beepers?
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Says pagers.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
But you can't send a message to a pager from
another pager, unlessen.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
From your phone, you'd send it to the pager.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Well, if you have a phone, all right.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
I'm going with I know, I'm gonna go with whatever
it is you think of in your mind. I'm thinking
of a little I guess a beeper on your belt.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
I still have mine from the nineties, right, I wonder
I should go check it.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
And then yesterday, right, and then I didn't realize you
were a drug dealer in the nineties. I mean, I
know you are now, but I didn't know it started
back then. So then you got a page yesterday that
said eight zero hashtag eight nine to one one, And
you're like, I guess the hashtag could be an m
(06:33):
Did they send out a message before the pagers went off?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Yes, what did it say?
Speaker 3 (06:39):
I don't know that it was an actual message, but
it chimed.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
I mean, I think you can.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
To my knowledge, I've never had a pager, but in
my mind, these pagers could only read phone numbers. Like you,
you can text, or you can send a number to
the pager implying you need to call this number back
if it's an emergency. You follow it up up with
nine to one one. Do we remember how pagers work.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
I believe that's how mine worked. I thought that you
could eventually, just before the pagers went away and the
phones became prevalent, I think you could send a message. Yeah,
And somehow I.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Think it's funnier if it's just numbers.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Okay, well that's probably what it was. Yeah, because who's
making beebers? So you have to be using old ones.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Gold Apollo and Taiwan. I don't know if they're making
them or if they made them thirty eight years ago.
And there's they've just been sitting on a shelf, like
what can we get really cheaply and really quickly. And
so they got these pagers and put the detonator in there,
and they gave them all to hundreds of members of
(07:46):
Hence Bellah. And then about the time they started realizing
like because a couple of them, we're just kind of
hanging out doing terrorist stuff, and they're like, oh, no,
Akhmed just blew up scot he blew up real good.
And then someone else was like, huh, I wonder what
(08:07):
that was, and maybe his battery and his page, you know,
And then one by one they're going up like popcorn.
And then they start getting the word out and they're like,
it's a trap. You know, they're Admiral Acbarring. There's your
eighties movie reference for this segment of the radio program, Lucy.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
It's a trap. It's a traps.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Baseball's close return to the Jedi. So they're starting to
get that word around, yelling at each other soil and
green as people, and your pager is going to explode,
and all these terrorists started blowing up like they were
walking around in a landmine field. This is awesome. Someone
(08:52):
coordinated this, put the explosives in the pagers, sent the
pagers to the terrorists, and then just sat there, probably
watching through some sort of drone or satellite imagery. They're
just watching these guys go up one byke, there's one
get in, and they just they were programmed to beat
(09:12):
for several seconds before detonating. See that's a mistake. If
hundreds of people got these pagers and only twelve people died,
and it says here the two of them were children,
there has belah When they say children were probably talking
about fifteen year olds who were just as armed and
(09:33):
awful as the rest of them. At least that's what
I'm telling myself to allow myself to laugh at the story.
If I find out later that's not the case, then
I will I will feel bad about most of this,
I assure you. So the mistake here and three thousand
(09:54):
people were injured. That's great. These are bad guys. These
are terrible people. The mistake, though, was having the thing
beep for several seconds.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Unless why was that a mistake?
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Well, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
If it's beeping for several seconds, I guess if I
didn't already know that my friends across Lebanon were also
blowing up real good, I'd probably be holding the thing
and holding it really close to my face.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Maybe, because if you set it down someplace and it
starts beeping, what are you gonna do? You know, I
don't know if these guys all got it and I
put it on their belt or you know, strapped it
to their chest with their ammo or whatever. You know,
they had these bandoliers across their chest and I got
to put my beeper on here. So, yeah, you're right, Lucy,
(10:47):
maybe that wasn't a mistake because they might've just grabbed
and said, what is this nineteen eighty seven and they
chucked it over next to the walkman that they still
listened to and then it starts beeping. So what are
you gonna do and go over look at it, pick
it up. You're now holding it and what's about to
not any longer be your hand and you're staring at it.
(11:09):
Why is this thing beeping? Next thing?
Speaker 2 (11:13):
You know? By face?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
I have just been informed by our good friend Pat
Stibbs that beepers are still made and used. And this
makes sense because they're used in hospitals because you can't
use cell phones, so doctors and nurses carry peepers.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Let's go ahead, I'm sure, Yeah, yeah, that's let's do.
Let's give.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Let's give that the thought and the attention that it deserves. Yeah,
I imagine that happens. But you know, mostly it's drug dealers, right,
not your doctors. Most of them are not drug dealers.
Where do you think the drug dealers get a lot
of the stuff though they got someone on the inside,
but mostly you if you if you got someone in
(11:55):
the medical field and their beeper goes off, I would
say it is much more likely than anything else. Like
the number one reason it's going to go off is
they're being called up to the third floor to take
care of a baby that's about to be born. The
second reason is it's drugs. And the third reason they
(12:16):
are hes Bellah now to Springfield. Oh hi oh. Two
women have come out and they said, we're the ones
who started this rumor about the Haitians eating our cats.
One's a thirty five year old woman named Erica, who
(12:40):
points out, I was not raised with hate. My whole
family is biracial. I never wanted to cause problems for anyone. Okay,
first of all, your whole family isn't biracial. Whole family
(13:01):
in order to be by Rachel. At one point you
had whole racial and whole Rachel who got together and
said hey baby, and then then by Rachel. But you know,
so you can't say the whole family. Most of the family.
(13:21):
Apparently so, by the way, most of a lot of
American families, and if not most, I don't know anymore.
But seems like this is not anything that's altogether uncommon,
nor does it preclude you from what she's about to say.
You know, she seems to be suggesting that since they
started this rumor, what they said started with a so
(13:45):
called game of telephone. After she heard that a neighbor's
daughter's cat had vanished. Then people started saying that as
someone who was new to the community, one of these
migrants brought in from Haiti among the twenty thousand who
have that designation may have taken the pet. She says,
I posted that rumor on Facebook and then asked the
(14:10):
neighbor for proof. The neighbor is the other woman involved.
Her name is Kim. Kim says, I'm not sure I'm
the most credible source because I don't actually know the
person who lost the cat. But she says, oh, I
heard it was the acquaintance of a friend or someone
heard that a source that said that, oh yeah, someone
stole the cat.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
And then.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
The rumor was helped along by the arrest in Canton,
Ohio of a twenty seven year old who was accused
of killing and eating a cat. Except that person isn't Haitian.
It's an American citizen born in Canton, Ohio. So all
of this came together and exploded into JD. Vance and
(14:55):
Donald Trump saying oh yeah, the Haitians, they're eating dogs
and cats Ringfield, Ohio. And these two women say, we
started that and we're sorry. And the one woman says,
I wasn't raised with hate. My whole family is biracial.
All right, let's look at that accusation and we'll do
it in the bi sected island nations of Haiti and
(15:22):
the Dominican Republic. The Dominican Republic is overwhelmingly black islander
in that community, and the Dominican Republic the old dr
is as I understand it amaze balls that place is
(15:42):
they're just constantly like going door to door, going, we
have an abundance of money. Does anyone here needing money?
Now we're good. We have too much money in here,
last chance, Now we're good, Thank you so much. Give
it to someone else. And they just go to door
and they try to give out money to everyone and
they can't. Everyone's like, we're so flushed with cat it's
so it's amazing. It's and then on the other side
(16:06):
of the same island you've got Haiti. Haiti goes door
to door trying to steal anything you have, but you
don't have anything. So it's people with nothing, living in
squalor and desperation trying to steal a little bit of
someone else's squalor. And they just leave the doors open,
like you know, I don't have anything in here, right.
(16:28):
The difference is the Dominican Republic is run by a
rather free market, capitalistic mindset, whereas Haiti is guns and
drugs and warlords and communism, essentially socialism. They've got nothing.
They're on the same island. There's no reason they both
shouldn't be incredibly prosperous. And the Dominicans don't want the
(16:51):
Haitians coming over into the dr. Oh does that make
them racist? It's black Dominicans looking at the black Haitians going,
you guys are good over there. We don't want that
mindset impacting what we have here in the Dominican Republic,
But apparently we're willing to take a big chunk of
(17:12):
it and bring it to, of all places, Springfield, Ohio.
Now I don't know who these people are. I don't
know what they eat. I don't know if they're chewing
on pets or what's going on. But the more that
we unchecked, not all these people have been vetted, the
more we bring a culture of squalor, desperation, socialism, warlords, thugs,
(17:35):
and gang members into a nice community like anywhere in America.
This specifically would be Springfield Ohio. That is not for
the benefit of the community. And to say, look, I
don't know if this is the right idea, is not
racist it's or if it is, it's just as racist
as the Black Dominican Republicans saying we don't want Haitians
(17:58):
over here.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
Is that racist.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
It has nothing to do with race, and these women
to come out and go we weren't raised with hate,
has nothing to we're biracial.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Big whoop.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
And that's not a phrase that I use lightly. I
mentioned a moment ago. It's movie time today. This is
like when the teacher says, all right, class today, in class,
we're going to watch a movie. And it's not something
that they've been that you've been studying in class. It's
just like we're just going to put on inside Out
and you're like, I've already seen this movie four times,
so that's fine. It's better than listen to this teacher
(18:31):
go on and on and on. So today is movie time,
not on the radio, but in the theater, specifically the
Marcus Majestic Theater one hundred and forty fourth in Maple
this afternoon for a four o'clock screening of the brand
new movie from the Daily Wire. Am I Racist? Starring
Matt Walsh. This is a little movie by basically a
(18:53):
bunch of sarcastic jerks at a website who are looking
to prove a point here, and they put it out theaters.
It went top five, number four in the country at
the box office. And the point of this movie is
a white guy who's been told here, especially recently, that
(19:14):
you're racist just because of the color of your skin,
and then he tries to figure out what he can
do about it, and he kind of goes round and
round with the DEI, the diversity, equity and inclusion of people,
until they feel uncomfortable with his questions and they ask
him to get out. So he adopts a new persona
with a man bun and kind of a tweed jacket
(19:37):
and glasses, and he goes back into these meetings now
as an ally, but still asking the same questions and
getting the same answers, which is also frustrating because you
know they're they all they want. I don't know what
they want him to say, but it exposes this anti
(19:57):
racism movement in the world of the people who are
pushing it, and that's what this movie is about. I'm
excited to see it this afternoon. We've given away a
bunch of tickets to KFAB listeners, and if you have one,
as it says on that ticket, you're not guaranteed a
seat at the theater, but if you get there early
enough today the movie starts at four. I like your
(20:19):
chances now. As is often the case here, not everyone
who got one of these tickets is going to be
able to join us this afternoon. So if you really
want to see this movie today for free, then my
suggestion is lurk around the movie theater in a non
lurky kind of way. You'll find me out there. I'll
be out there at about three o'clock this afternoon, and
(20:41):
we'll kind of put you in the queue, and if
there are any empty seats, I'll direct traffic and work
as best I can to accommodate. But we want everyone
to take advantage of this, especially since we've got a
couple of very generous sponsors who are making this happen.
We've got from Patriotic Productions Bill Williams, who joins us
in the studio here. Bill, good morning, Good morning, Scott.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
Thanks for having me here.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Always a pleasure to have you here. And from Fallen
Giant Films. Randy J. Goodwin is back here on eleven
ten kfab Randy, thank you very much for your sponsorship
and all this as well.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Always I have either.
Speaker 5 (21:17):
Of you guys seen this movie Friday night and I
went on opening night, and I encourage everybody to see it.
Because Walsh has a scream is.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
My assessment of what I think this movie is about.
Bill Is that accurate? Oh?
Speaker 5 (21:33):
Absolutely?
Speaker 2 (21:34):
And it.
Speaker 5 (21:36):
Turns the attention or turns the light on these race
hustlers and grifters who are profiteering on white guilt, and
just the way he just turns it on them and
just lets them talk is just something you have to see.
It's really well done.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
And this is something that I've never I've never shied
away from, but I don't feel comfortable talking about it because, frankly,
when it comes to race in this country, there are
a lot of sensitivities and based on your walk through
your life, I don't know what you're going through, vice versa,
that kind of thing. But what I loved seeing a
couple of years ago is they did a remake of
(22:18):
the Wonder Years and in this case, the Kevin Arnold
character is played by It's a young black kid who
is growing up in the sixties and that's the setting
for these Wonder Years. And it's right after Martin Luther
King was assassinated and this young black kid forgot to
do his homework and it's in the wake of doctor
(22:40):
King's shooting and he goes up to his white teacher
and said, I couldn't do my homework because I was
really upset about Martin Luther King. And this white teacher's like, oh, honey,
it's okay, don't worry about gives him a big hug,
and he's, you know, the voice in his head which
you hear in the TV series is this is great,
I can use their white guild against them. And he's
(23:01):
I'm like, not only are they making a humorous situation
at one of the darkest moments in America's history, but
it's hilarious and it also kind of transcends what's going
on in this country today. I thought it was brilliant.
That show didn't seem to last very long. By the way,
So talking about Hollywood talking about all these sensitivities.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Randy J.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Goodwin, actor from Nebraska, he's been out doing a bunch
of stuff in Hollywood over the years. And now this
is the third time I think on this show we're
going to call you a frequent contributor to the program.
And as we've noted before, you have been and I
believe are now black. But just as I don't proclaim
(23:53):
to speak for all white people, you've never said and
I speak for all black people. So we're gonna get
all that out of the way here right now. But
I got to say that in case some people are
listening going, oh, a bunch of white people in there
having a clan meeting talking about this anti racist movement.
So now we have people listening going, oh, I guess
(24:14):
you guys can say anything you want because there's a
black guy in the studio.
Speaker 4 (24:17):
Yes, yes, I am an American who happens to be
a man of color.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
I'm not.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
I'm a man of color too. My color is translucent.
I'm like one of those like one of those cave
news that's never seen the sun.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
As a as a as a black man, a black American,
I exercise my white guilt every day.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
And uh and and I think that it's your right
as an American.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
I don't, I don't. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
You know, I'm curious as to your thoughts here, and
I don't like to put you on the spot, like, hey,
you're black, what do you think about this movie and
the anti racism movement? But that's exactly the question I'm asking,
can you.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Uh anti racism movement?
Speaker 4 (25:03):
You know, first of all, I'm one of those dudes
who like so Be and Shade again. We did we
did stand up comedy together, and you know this, in
comedy there's no hose bar.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Come on, not supposed to be Shade again. The great
American he's he's also he's whiter than I am. He's
a very white guy. He is the whitest.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Dude on the planet. Yeah, well almost almost. There is.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
There is Scott Wagner, there's a he's another Courtney. He's
got red here. Courtney loves right up there. But but
he's a he's a good buddy of mine. I grew
up with these dudes.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
I've always said and I still say it today, and
some people get upset with me. I think racism is funny.
I think there's so much humor in it because it's
so ridiculous. That's the thing. I don't like you not
because of the color of your skin, because as as
a man of I'm brown. But there are people who
are darker than I am, and there there are black
(25:55):
people who are lighter than I am, and there's there's
literally racism within black community. It's crazy. But the funny
thing is I don't like you because you suck. Yeah,
that's it.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
I don't.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
I don't care who you are, where you're from, what
you do. Well, I do care about what you do
because the's a lot of that stuff going on in
Hollywood right and I just it's like Martin Luther King said,
you brought him up. The content of your character is
what I care about. The rest of it, I think
is funny.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
There's a great Key and Peel bit where where the
gay co worker is lighting up his coworker going, you
don't like you because I'm gay, and he's lighting him
up and all this stuff, and then the guy's boyfriend,
who's presumably the straight guy in this we realize he's gay.
His boyfriend comes up, gives him a kiss and says,
where we going to lunch today? And he says, I
don't know, let's go right now, and then the gay
(26:43):
you know, crying coworker about this just suddenly looks at
himself and goes, oh, it's not because I'm gay. I'm
an a hole, you know, right, So it's it's perfect exactly.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
And that's I.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Think, like I think for most people in this country,
if you if you grew up at a time when
we did, you know, born in the seventies and grew
up in the eighties, came of age in the nineties
or some shifting of these these decades here, like race
was never a big deal. Yet now we've been told
here that, well, you're super racist because we've decided it.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
Yeah, yeah, I was. I was. Actually we had a meeting.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
I'm not gonna say names, but it was a Jewish
woman and she was doing her best to get me
to admit that I have experienced racism in Nebraska, and
I said, no, I've never experienced me personally.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
I go, I know there are racist people out there.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
They're actually I call it prejudice, because they're prejudging based
on what they think they know. I think most people
who are prejudiced, when they get to know people that
they were prejudiced toward, they're no longer prejudice because they
realized oh crap. I thought he was just like to
do what I see on TV Dinah might or whatever.
(28:01):
You know, they thought, I know, you guys like that,
Jimmy JJ Walker and me, JJ.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Walker, who's not a nice guy by the way. Oh no,
hey Jimmy.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
We got to talk a lot about Jimmy j You know,
he was on the radio here in Omaha. I worked
with him, and I've kept in touch with him over
the years, and I get I've always gotten along with
Jimmy JJ Walker. But I think that the impression that
he's not a nice guy is because he's had forty
almost fifty years of people come up to him going
say Donald might, say Donald might. Never did, He's not,
(28:32):
He's not. He's not thrilled about that. He doesn't like
to say Donald might unless he's getting paid a bunch
of money. And he doesn't like to be touched. I
think it's because I'm black. I think he was mean
to you because you're black. I think JJ is angry
with me because I'm black. Did you touch him and
say Donald might, That's not I just kept saying, fire cracker,
fire cracker, fire cracker. We were with him one time
(28:54):
and and we knew this about JJ and a co
worker of ours came up and gave him a big
and said, oh, Jimmy, I love you. Could you please
say Dinah might And she's hugging him, and he just
looked at me and goes, someone's going down the wrong road.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
So I love Jimmy Walker. I love it.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
But I'm you know, I'm just I'm just speaking from
my little I'll stick up for Jimmy Walker on this
radio show.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
Okay, all right, and I trust you, so my bad
jaj Jen All good people. You know, you people get misunderstood.
You know, you're a Hollywood celebrity. People have a certain
idea about you. No people, No, I said you're a
I said people get misunderstood. You're a Hollywood celebrity. I
didn't say you people.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
I mean you people. Is in Hollywood people, That's what
I thought. No, I didn't say any of that. Sorry.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
I feel like Governor Ricketts right now, he sent you people,
and then we go to the tape and he said
you guys, and they still the media still says that
Ricketts was accused of saying you people. When we have
it on video he said you guys.
Speaker 4 (29:56):
Well that's that's where the Hollywood scriptwriters come in and
move it around. Because guys are people too, I've heard
you know. Don't just assume that guys are just guys.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Yeah, okay, yeah, that's part of us too, all right.
That's Randy J. Goodwin, Fallen Giant Films, Bill Williams of
Patriotic Productions also here in the studio, and Bill, I
got a question along these lines for you as well.
Will pick up there next to head of today's screening
of Am I Racist four o'clock at the Marcus Majestic Theater,
one hundred and forty fourth and Maple. If you already
(30:30):
won your ticket, well hopefully you can make it and
we'll see you there. If you don't have a ticket,
if you want to try and get in there, I'd say,
in a very cool way, lurk around the movie theater
this afternoon and we'll see what we can do. Scott
by Chris emails Scott atkfab dot com. It says Scott,
to be fair, it did sound like you said you
(30:52):
and then people from where I was sitting, but it
sounded like you are trying to have two different thoughts
come out of your mouth at the same time. Yeah,
it's always scary. There was another broadcaster the other day
who was trying to say immigrants and migrants at the
same time and said half of both words that to
(31:12):
some people came out sounded like a real bad slur.
And you know, it was clear to most people who
aren't trying to make an example of him what he
was saying on that. But I still wouldn't want to
be him today. All right, So I'm Scott Vorhees, apparently
a hardcore racist here on news radio eleven to ten
kfab as identified by Hollywood actor from Fallen Giant Films,
(31:37):
Randy J. Goodwin, who's in here checking my privilege on
the radio this morning, and Bill Williams of Patriotic Productions
here as well. And we talked a lot about Randy
about the situation of racial tensions and so forth in
this country. And Randy is black. Bill you have always been,
and I believe are now a white guy. But you've
(31:58):
gotten into some of this as well because you've supported
a different color. Patriotic Production has not only supported the red, white,
and blue, which often is identified with by some MAGA extremism,
but you've identified and supported the blue police officer's law enforcement,
and that's been deemed to be racist here. So as
(32:19):
you've tried to navigate these waters in your personal and
professional life, what have you found the case to be well?
Speaker 5 (32:26):
Speaking of the Back the Blue, we did two of
those to show support for law enforcement after the rioting downtown,
and it was the one at Memorial Park through about
a thousand people. A good event, really a good event.
One of our speakers was a female OPD officer who
(32:47):
got emotional talking about being downtown in riotgear, shouldered to
shoulder with her fellow officers, and these young people were
hurling in salt and rocks and bottles and all kinds
of things at her, and she said, I recognize some
of them who had been at my kitchen table, and
(33:09):
so it was a neat event. Our second one we
brought in Lee Greenwood for the second time. We had
him for one of our patriotic parades, and so it
was I'm glad we did it. We have been, I guess,
wandering into the culture wars a bit with our year ago,
as you were the MC for Riley Gaines, and we're
(33:29):
very pleased that we put that event on with Riley because,
as you recall it was twelve hundred people, not an
empty seat, and not a.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
Protester, So this was something that you never could have
dreamed even ten years ago would be a controversial issue.
Riley Gaines a college athlete who had to swim as
a female swimmer against a male swimmer, and she said,
this isn't fair and this does nothing for women's athletics.
This is a Title nine violation. Just to stand up
(34:00):
and say women should compete against women in sports like
this and men against men is suddenly a very controversial issue,
and you've your organization has taken a lot of heat
for it.
Speaker 5 (34:11):
We did, and we lost some sponsors, but didn't care.
We replaced them with others that supported what we did.
This next Memorial Day will be our fifth patriotic parade,
and the reason we started that is because, as most
of us noticed, much of the national media narrative these
last few years is what a horrible, hateful, racist country
(34:33):
we are.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
Well, apparently that's just me I've learned here this morning, But.
Speaker 5 (34:39):
The vast majority of us treat people the way we
want to be treated. We're the most diverse, most generous
people in the world. But our children and grandchildren get
the message that it isn't. So that's why we do
the Patriotic parade, and so we try to do what
we can to you know, get the message out that
(35:00):
that this is a wonderful country and we should be appreciative.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
We always and we will again for the next one.
Tell people how to go down and watch this parade.
Right now, I want to put out the message for
those who want to help you with this parade.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
What do you need?
Speaker 5 (35:16):
Well, we're always looking for some sponsors Patriotic Productions Plural
Patriotic Productions dot org. We're also proud to announce that
we are going to be organizing the Memorial Park Memorial
Day Service beginning next next time, and so it's going
to be completely different top to bottom. We're going to
(35:39):
put up a ninety foot ten on the flat part
near Dodge that'll hold over five hundred. We have skydivers
bringing in the colors. We're going to give away free
pancakes to try to attract young families to come, and
so's it's going to be something I want people. You
know a lot of people talk about on Memorial Day
they should do something, but they don't. Well, we're going
(36:00):
to try to make it attractive that they'll.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
Come Patriotic Productions dot org and bookmark that page to
find out about all the events that Patriotic Productions is doing,
about remember the Fallen, and about how you can help
Bill and Yvonne Williams with their mission Patriotic Productions dot org.
So that's going to be Memorial Day. We have now
from now until then to convince Randy to dress up
(36:24):
as Dave Chappelle as Prince to serve pancakes, and then
Randy served pancakes. We have from now until then. I
gotta see that Dave says. Yeah, some of the things
that Dave said, you can say pretty much everything in
that bit. Shoot the Jay. Shoot it one of my
favorite bits. We've been talking off the air though this
(36:48):
morning about we were doing on the air and this
afternoon at at Marcus Majestic Theater one hundred and forty
fourth and Maple four o'clock screening of Ami Racists exclusively
for kfab listeners. If you got your ticket, we'll see
you there. If not, you can stop by the theater
and see if we can accommodate you. But it is
it is only for kfab listeners. That's four o'clock this
(37:08):
afternoon Marcus Majestic. M I Racist is the movie off
the air we've been talking about blazing saddles. Can you
guys hang out for one more segment bring that conversation
on the air. I'm gonna take that as yes, we'll
do it next.
Speaker 4 (37:21):
Scott Boys news Radio eleven ten KFAB.
Speaker 1 (37:26):
We've got Bill Williams of Patriotic Productions here in the
studio as well as Randy J. Goodwin Fallen Giant Films.
These are the two organizations that allow news Radio eleven
ten kfab part of our one hundred years a century
to service Banner flip Flapping event series. Here in one
hundred years of Kfab. Today's screening at four o'clock at
(37:50):
the Marcus Majestic Theater one hundred and forty fourth and
Maple of the film MI Racist. And here's an accusation
that comes the Zonker's custom was inbox Scott at kfab
dot com. We were talking about the uh.
Speaker 2 (38:07):
Oh, the I.
Speaker 1 (38:08):
Don't lie as rumors innuendo story Springfield, Ohio that Haitian
migrants have populated that community and they're gnawing on people's pets,
they're putting cats and dogs on a spit and their
erosinam rerotisserie style every single night in that community, and
no one has any pets left. That's the that's what
(38:29):
we get here from Vance and Trump. And I said,
because one of the women that said, I think I'm
responsible for this, and she says, and I'm I'm not racist.
My family's biracial. I said, racism has nothing to do
with it. Look at that island. The Dominican Republican people
don't want the Haitians on their side of the island.
We're talking about mostly black Dominicans. Saying keep the black
(38:51):
Haitians away from us has nothing to do with race,
has everything to do with mindset and culture of politics.
So Don emails and says Vance and Trump spreading lies
about black folks eating white folks pets. Yes, that's certainly racists,
but no surprise from your MAGA nominees. That's from Don
(39:12):
sent to Scott at kfab dot com. Anyone went a
weigh in with any thoughts on the Springfield, Ohio pet
eating situation, Randing, Yes.
Speaker 2 (39:22):
I actually know.
Speaker 4 (39:23):
I have some friends in Ohio in that area and
they are one saying, dude, they're eating our pets.
Speaker 1 (39:31):
That's real. That's what they're saying. There doesn't seem to
be any real evidence of that. Well, but you know,
I guess they have to wait until they digest it.
We had a couple of guys here, migrants to this
country here in Nebraska, that were shooting and eating bald eagles,
(39:53):
and I don't know how good they taste or how
good of pets they make, but you're not supposed to
do that. And so people look at some something like
that and go see there, I don't I don't know.
And then they were like, well, they're eating all these
geese down there, like a lot of people eat geese.
And as far as I'm concerned, any geese messing up
any golf course, eat all of them. I don't care. Yeah,
(40:14):
not about white or black. It's about green fairways for me.
So all right, we were looking forward to doing this
movie event today, but also this is fifty years of
Blazing Saddles this month, and I want to add another
voice here on news radio eleven ten kfab from On
the Spot Productions. Longtime Radio Guy promoter Pat Stibbs is
(40:35):
here as well, and Pat, you're watching with interest this
fifty year celebration of Blazing Saddles because the movie theater
is showing it back in the theaters after we do
our event today. Yes, that's a separate ticket, separate ticket. Yeah,
well you have to buy a ticket for that. But
I thought it was very interesting that thismi racist promotion
came out at the very same time that they were
(40:56):
celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of Blazing Saddles. You know, hard
to believe, but when that movie came out, you know,
talk about racism and perceived racism. Mel Brooks got so
much hate mail for making this film. And if these
people that hated this film would actually watch the film,
they would realize, as Randy said earlier, you don't make
fun of racism, you make fun of the racists. And
(41:19):
that's what this movie does. This movie just says, if
you're a racist, you're basically stupid. And the moral of
this movie, without giving anything away, is Clevan Little, who
plays Black Bart reunites the bigots and the African American
folks and everybody.
Speaker 2 (41:33):
Lives in a harmony. That's the nature of the film.
And get they still.
Speaker 1 (41:35):
Bitched about it, Yes, well, of course, you know, but
you got to clean them on something, right. But it's
you know, people always look at this movie and this
is what Bill was saying, and Randy as well, But
it's been a common refrain here over the last probably
even twenty to thirty years, is that, oh, you can't
make that movie. You can't make a movie like Blazing
Saddles today. Bill, that's what you said. Why do you
(41:57):
say that?
Speaker 5 (41:58):
I think the sensitivities of today would make it difficult,
but you know, maybe it could be that, as Randy says,
a lot of people if they just step up and
state their opinion and take the slings and arrows and
hold your grounds.
Speaker 1 (42:16):
Now, Randy, you say that Blazing Saddles could.
Speaker 2 (42:19):
Be made today. Why do you say that?
Speaker 4 (42:21):
Because I don't care what people think, and I think
it's a hilarious movie, but it's got a great message
that the wrong people take it the wrong way. For well,
I gotta say, you know, it's it's for political gain.
Speaker 2 (42:36):
Here's what I say.
Speaker 1 (42:38):
And my apologies to our friends in the studio who've
already heard me say this without a live microphone in
my big fat face. But I look at all in
the family versus modern family, essentially the same show. Obviously
a little difference to some wrinkles, but it's kind of
the same premise and all in the family. People say like, oh,
(43:00):
you couldn't make that TV show today? Yeah you can.
It's modern family. It's just not received in the same
way as it was back in the seventies. And that's
why I think that there are some people pushing these boundaries,
but it's not seen as boundary pushing to talk about
these things because it's something that has talked about in
(43:21):
a lot of different ways by a lot of different people.
Hence this movie Am I racist? I mean, will people
look at anything that we're producing today out of Hollywood,
Randy in fifty years from now and go, wow, you
couldn't make that today, Like what's that going to look
like in five decades?
Speaker 4 (43:35):
Well, with so many people trying to erase history as
it is, it's just going to be part of the
plan in fifty years getting books off the shelves that
I mean, come on Uncle Tom's Cab and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (43:50):
The Song of the South.
Speaker 4 (43:51):
I mean, these are great, great movies, and it's great
art with great messages, but yet there are people who
are trying to take I mean, we're supposed to be
an Art is supposed to be subjective, right you, Art
to you is different than art to you and and
and then me. So we're supposed to be able to
have this creative expression, and yet they're taking our creative
(44:15):
expression away. And in fifty years the way it's going,
we're not going to have any creative expression. We won't
even have art.
Speaker 1 (44:21):
Do We have a favorite line from Blazing Saddles that
each of us is able to and want to say
on the radio.
Speaker 2 (44:27):
The sheriff is near The sheriff is near, Bill in
any quote you want to give us here.
Speaker 5 (44:35):
That's the one I reb Yeah.
Speaker 6 (44:37):
Pat, My favorite was when Cleveland Little's character Black Bart
meets Gene Wilder's character the Waco Kid for the first
time he's in jail and and Cleveland goes, are we awake?
And well that depends are we black? Yes, we are, Well,
We're awake, but very puzzled. That's my favorite line.
Speaker 1 (44:54):
That's That's the one I was probably gonna say here
because that's something that my wife and I have said
back and forth to each other because I'll I'll just
text her because you know, she sleeps in a lot,
so I'll be gone, you know, on a Saturday morning
playing golf and I want to ask her something, but
I don't know she's awake, So I'll just text her
and say are we dot dot dot black, which she
(45:16):
knows means are you awake? So I think one that
we used to use on this show when I first
started here eighteen years ago. Eighteen years ago this month
is when this show started on this radio station, and
we had a number of things that we use going
to break that said, you know, Scott Vorhees movie clip
eleven t kfab and one of those was, hey, where
(45:38):
the White women at? And I was told like, yeah,
maybe not that one. So I was like, but it's funny,
but it's funny. Oh, boys, look at what we have here.
That movie is just so funny. And the fact that
people still think it's funny today and they still want
(45:58):
to go see it today, show, I think you can
make that movie today. It just wouldn't be as good,
and it's kind of funny.
Speaker 4 (46:05):
I'm getting all these texts right now from people listening,
and this is how.
Speaker 1 (46:10):
Who we're not even broadcasting right now. These mics aren't
plugged in.
Speaker 4 (46:15):
Mark Burrew is a buddy of mine for many years,
and he just sent I'm a white man trapped. I'm
a black man trapped in a white man's body. He
said that about you. No, he is this dude. Can
he can dance, He's he's very musical. People, he's very musical,
because apparently all black people are.
Speaker 1 (46:33):
Yeah, I got in an argument. I think this is
when I was on the radio down in Kansas City
and a guy called up. He was black, and he
was saying, like, we just need to get away from
all of the stereotypes. We need to stop stereotype. And
I said, you know what, You're right, no more stereotypes.
And that's why no one should ever assume that you,
as a black man, are well endowed. He's like, whoa, whoa, whoa,
(46:55):
whoa Wait, I mean not all the stereotypes.
Speaker 2 (46:57):
So see he's gotta have it.
Speaker 1 (47:02):
Or anyway, let's go back to today's movie event, four
o'clock Marcus Majestic Theater. It's called m I Racist. Matt
Wallah in the Daily Wire put this movie out bill,
you've seen it, and how many out of out of
five patriots, how many patriots would you give it?
Speaker 2 (47:19):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (47:20):
This is a ten I think, I mean one of
the five Wow, one of the one of the most
fun parts is his treatment of the Jesse Smollett. So
it's really clever. Oh my god, I just hope people
will go see it.
Speaker 1 (47:35):
Jesse Smallett, who is the black gay actor on Empire,
which is almost essentially an all black cast, happened to
be walking along Chicago in thirty degree temperature or colder.
I think it's like like zero. It is below zero
out there, like three o'clock in the morning, and a
couple of guys who are racist MAGA supporters, happened to
(47:58):
be out there, happened to have a new with them
just in case, and they happen to see a guy
on a TV show that has hardcore racist they would
not watch, and they're like, this is a perfect opportunity,
no one's around to slightly wrap him up a little
bit and put this news around his neck, but not
actually hurt him. And that's the narrative we were led
to belief in that situation.
Speaker 4 (48:19):
If you want to hear the true story about this actor,
actually his name is Juicy Smoothly a Juicy and Juicy
go to YouTube. Type in Dave Chappelle and Jesse Smolett.
He'll tell you the true story of what happened. All right,
I gotta see that.
Speaker 2 (48:37):
Randy J.
Speaker 1 (48:37):
Goodwin, Falling Giant Films, what are you working on right now?
What's Falling Giant Films up to? I know we just
had this conversation a couple weeks ago on the radio.
