This Podcast is Morbidly Obese

I hope RFK Jr. is able to take a look at this podcast, because I'm pretty sure it's bad for your health.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Scott Vordez.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
Well, here's the latest on the Trump train. He got
re elected here recently, and he said, I have got
a lot of ideas about who could be in the
care a lot of ideas. Frankly, best cabinet anyone's ever seen.
You won't believe it. We're going to take good care
of you. And for health and human services, he decided

(00:24):
that one of his recent friends, Robert F. Kennedy Junior
aka R. F. Kennedy Junior aka Bobby Kennedy the Second,
would be in charge of the Department of Health and
Human Services. Immediately, lids were flipped, not just Democrats, Republicans, independents,

(00:51):
people who are like, look, I've voted for Trump. I
didn't know he's going to put someone in charge of
the nation's Health and Human Services department is going to
come around slap vaccines away from kids. All right, let's review.
RFK Junior has no background in science. He has no

(01:12):
background in scientific research, He has no background in medicine.
He graduated from Harvard, got a law degree from the
University of Virginia, and, as it's quickly noted here in
this story, pled guilty to felony heroin possession in February
of nineteen eighty four, Like, what does that have to
I didn't know that, by the way, that forty years ago.

(01:35):
A little bit of heroin, A little bit of heroin.
I did a lot of heroin in nineteen eighty four.
I was in second grade.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
Second grade, will do it? Oh man, it was a crazy, tough,
tough time.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
It was a crazy time. I kind of felt like, well,
childhood's over all. That fun you had in kindergarten in
first grade, that's all behind you now. Missus Goldstein would
sit there in front of the classroom make a do
math stuff like I want to eat glue. You know
you're gonna have math and heroin And yeah. It was

(02:08):
nineteen eighty four. George Orwell's big brother was watching us.
Reagan was getting re elected. Anytime you turned on TV,
people were break dancing. There's a lot to take in.
How was I supposed to do that without a steady
stream of heroin? Well so, yeah, RFK Junior and I

(02:30):
were hanging out and doing heroin. It could have been
it was in rapid City, South Dakota.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
Oh wow.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Anyway, that's a weird side trip. Right by the way,
people right now believe everything I say, and they're like
Scott did a lot of heroin when he was a child,
and that may or may not be true anyway. RFK
Junior has spent his career as an environmental lawyer and

(02:58):
a politician. As he tried to run for the presidency,
he has had some thoughts on vaccines. Here are his
thoughts on vaccines. He felt very early on that the
COVID vaccine wouldn't have the efficacy that some in the
scientific community were suggesting that it would. He said, you know,

(03:24):
they're saying that if you take this COVID vaccine that
you can't get COVID and therefore you can't give it
to anybody else. And that seems to be untrue. And
they said, you're crazy, and anyone who says any of
that is crazy and lying, and you're some sort of
science denier. And then it was turned out to be

(03:45):
one hundred percent true. If you take the COVID vaccine,
you could still get COVID. Ideally the symptoms would be
much more mild, but if you have it, you can
still pass it to somebody else. So it turns out
the questions and the statements there that people like RFK
Junior were making ended up being accurate. How's that possible?
He has no background in science, research or medicine. But

(04:07):
the biggest thing that Kennedy was saying about vaccines is
we shouldn't be mandating something like an experimental COVID vaccine
and telling people you can't work, your kids, can't go
to school, you can't have contracts with the government. Therefore,

(04:30):
if you say you work in a hospital environment, you
gotta take the COVID vaccine. You can't come to this
country to play tennis. Novak Djokovic. I mean, we had
very very strong feelings about a vaccine that was experimental,
and he said, I think that this should be it's

(04:51):
not subject to a mandate. Here's another weird thought RFK
Junior had about vaccines. He said, the Trump administration, And
because someone asked him, are you going to have a
role in this Trump administration? After Trump won the election,
RFK Junior said, I don't know, but if I do,

(05:11):
I'm not going to take away anybody's vaccines. He's not
going to come into the Department of Health and Human
Services and say, all right, you know what, I like measles,
mumps and rubella. They always go together. Have you ever
in your entire life losing known anyone who ever had rubella?

Speaker 3 (05:33):
Not in this lifetime? Well did I have? I personally known, No,
but I think that it was still around in the
eighties early eighties.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
I don't think I want rubella. I have never heard
anyone having rubella. I'm sure eight people are going to
email me right now, going I currently have rubella and.

Speaker 3 (05:53):
Some people still get the bubonic plague? Did you know that?

Speaker 2 (05:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (05:57):
There was a I'm sure it's because there's no Yeah,
was a.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
Guy in Kansas or Arizona here recently ended up get
testing positive for a mild case of the bubonic plague.
Every once in a while, someone gets the haunt of virus.
There was a guy a few weeks ago. Do I
Is there any possible way I can recall this story?
There was a guy. Oh my gosh, it's right here.

(06:24):
I can't believe that a guy had a loss of fever,
lots of fever.

Speaker 3 (06:30):
No, that was in Saturday Night? Was that song? Yeah,
I remember dancing to that. Losa loss of fever.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
A loss of lasa la ssa. This is a viral
fever rarely seen the United States. Well, how do you
get it? Well, this guy traveled from West Africa to Iowa.

Speaker 3 (06:55):
Traveled.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
Yeah, yeah, it's on an airplane next to other people.
And they said, well, the risk of fellow airline passengers
is extremely low, the virus is not spread by casual contact,
and patients are not believed to be infectious before symptoms occur.
So he gets to Iowa. He ends up going to
the University of Iowa Medical Center and they say, yep,

(07:19):
you've got loas of fever, the ninth case of los
of fever since nineteen sixty nine in America.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
Well does he live here?

Speaker 2 (07:27):
Well, I don't know, huh, but I can tell you
he doesn't live here anymore. He died.

Speaker 3 (07:37):
Ope.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
So now they're trying to figure out how he got infected,
and they're like, well, how do you get loss of fever? Well,
really only if you have a lot of close contact
with rodents and their.

Speaker 3 (07:51):
Pooh.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
Yeah. So I'm like, why were you doing over there?

Speaker 3 (07:57):
Well, that's how you get handavirus. No, I think handavirus If.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
That's like, that's usually like mouse, yeah, mouse droppings and
so forth. Uh, this one is very similar.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
I guess did he know he was sick when he
came here, and.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
Uh, I don't know. It says the virus is carried
by rodents spread to humans through contact through the droppings
of infected animals.

Speaker 3 (08:20):
Well that's it. We've got to ban all rodents.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
Now it can be through people with direct contact with
a sick person's bodily fluid. So I'm like, again, what
were you doing over there? But hey, you know, some
people's idea of a good weekend's a little different than mine. Sorry,
I really sorry I got us down on that road.
But every once in a while, you get people in

(08:44):
this country to get something that we just don't see
very often.

Speaker 3 (08:48):
Oh you were talking vaccine.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
Yeah, and so yeah, RFK Junior is not like, hey,
all the vaccines are gone. This is we're gonna make
America rubella again. We're gonna give America a fresh new
case of the mumps. Everyone's getting chicken pox. Hope you
like shingles, you know, So OURFK Junior said, we're not

(09:13):
taking away anyone's vaccines. Now, I haven't even gotten to
the guy who said something about RFK Junior's nomination for
Health and Human Services. I'm gonna really impressed that someone
actually went out on a limb and said this. Now,
this is the part of the show where I say
and I'll tell you who said what next. But we're

(09:36):
not doing that. We're gonna hold off on that. I'm
gonna keep it right here in this break, even though
it's a compelling broadcast tease, I said, I would have
it to you in this segment. We're still in this segment,
Baby strap in guess who stepped out and said, I'm
actually very happy that RFK Junior has been nominated here

(09:59):
for Health in Human Services to serve in the Trump administration.
A prominent Democrat, Governor Jared Polis, governor of Colorado. He's
a Democrat, and he says, I believe in vaccines. Lest
they're being a doubt. I am vaccinated, my family is vaccinated.

(10:21):
I believe in vaccines. You know what, I don't believe
in mandates. Mandates like what we saw during COVID that
was a step way too far for government. And he says,
I hope that RFK Junior leans into personal choice on

(10:42):
vaccines rather than bans. And Governor Polis said, I think
bans are terrible. You shouldn't ban any these vaccines, just
like you shouldn't mandate experimental vaccines for people. Now here's
something else that Governor Polis said. As a country, if
we follow the science, we should also be more concerned,

(11:03):
far more concerned about the impact of pesticides on public health,
agg policy on nutrition, lack of access to prescription drugs
due to high drug prices. This is why I'm for
a major shakeup in institutions like the FDA that have
been barriers to lowering drug costs and promoting healthy food choices.

(11:25):
I'll hold any HHS secretary to the same high standard
of protecting and improving public health unless they're being eat doubt.
I am vaccinated, my family is vaccinated. That's the thing
like no RFK Junior. If he comes out and says,
I don't know about a particular vaccine, Okay, you know
what you can do with that information. Research it, talk
to your doctor, and then make a decision. And I

(11:49):
would say that I'm not a doctor, and I'm not
even gonna go into that little dangerous pool of lava
as to what I think about some of these vaccines
and so forth. I honestly talk to a doctor you
know and trust, but mandates. As we talked about the

(12:11):
other day. But people are like, I don't know why
some of these women turn their back on women in
health care decisions. These are moms still mad about what
happened to their kids during COVID. Yeah, COVID kind of
feels most of the time like it's behind us. Man.
I was getting everything out of my car yesterday and
reached to the very bottom of the middle console and

(12:33):
guess what I pulled out of there?

Speaker 3 (12:35):
A mask?

Speaker 2 (12:36):
A mask?

Speaker 3 (12:38):
Did you burn it?

Speaker 2 (12:39):
No?

Speaker 3 (12:41):
Cough it up into little pieces.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
My wife made it for me. It was red, white
and blue.

Speaker 3 (12:45):
Why do you want to remember that she didn't.

Speaker 2 (12:47):
Make it out of an American flag and cut it
out here? Put this on. I want to never forget
some of what happened during those years, so.

Speaker 3 (12:59):
I'll give you.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
But yeah, it feels like COVID is kind of behind us.
But the people who pushed a lot of this, they're
still having to live with these decisions now. One other
person who responded to RFK Junior being in charge of
Health and Human Services is the chief critic of doctor Fauci.
Senator Ran Paul Republican from Kentucky said, finally someone to

(13:25):
detox the place after the fauci era. Get ready for
health care, freedom and Maha. That's the new phrase as
it relates to RFK make America healthy again.

Speaker 3 (13:39):
We have a festival for it every year here.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
Yes, the Maha Festival here in Omaha. Yes, let's wait,
there's always a bit of a delay there where. We've
suggested that the people behind the local Omaha Maha Music
Festival bringing in awesome and very left leaning indie artists
are now also participating a new Trump rally up there there.

(14:03):
It hit him. That's their heads exploding. Wait, we were
doing a Trump rally. No, no, yeah, so yeah you can.
You can still get all the vaccines you want. This
is a fresh perspective. This and and that's just health
and human services. You hear what Elon Musk is already

(14:26):
doing as the douge leader. I'll tell you this is
where I'm gonna take this break. I'll tell you next.

Speaker 1 (14:33):
Scott Vories News Radio eleven ten kfab.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
Share any emails and says, I believe rubella is a
mild form of measles. Well, I figured it was in
that family. You get the uh, the shot, the vaccine
for measles, MOMPS and rubella isn't that what that's all about?

Speaker 3 (14:52):
Mmrm Yeah, yep.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
Uh. Murder for short. That's what they gave Jesus gold,
Frankinson's and a vaccine against measles, MOMPS, and rebella. It's
in the Bible. Sharon says. I believe rebella is a
mild form of measles, but it's particularly dangerous to pregnant women.
And Sharon says, when I got married one hundred years ago, well,
happy one hundredth anniversary, Sharon. When I got married, couples

(15:17):
were still required to get a blood test before they
were allowed to get married. One of the things they
tested for and the women was an immunity to rebella. Yeah,
I don't remember my wife and I got married one
hundred years ago. I guess because I seem to recall.
I don't know that anyone said we were required to
get on one.

Speaker 3 (15:38):
That was twenty years, twenty two years, twenty two years.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
You weren't, but we got one, and that is one
of my wife. My wife was just sure I was dead.
Here's how that day went. This is when she had
a cell phone and I was still resisting. I didn't
want to cell phone, so she had no way to

(16:03):
completely get a hold of me, and what was I
gonna do pull off the road to a pay phone
or something like, hey, just want to let you know.
So here's here's how my day went. I went to
go get the results of my blood tests. I had
to go to some community health center in Kansas City.
I don't know why. I barely remember anything about this.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
Maybe in Kansas they still did.

Speaker 2 (16:23):
But I remember being one hundred percent positive I didn't
have AIDS or anything. But as you're driving up there
and you're pulling into the parking lot and you're sitting
there in the waiting room, then you start really thinking,
like what if I had AIDS. I don't think I
have AIDS, you know. And so by the time they

(16:45):
were about to give you the results back, you're pretty
sure you have full blown AIDS. You're like, I don't know.
I had to drink a lot to drink that night.
I don't know what happened, you know, seven years ago.
So you're convinced that you have AIDS. And then they
give you the results back and say, well, your tests
look good. You don't have anything, including AIDS. I'm like okay,

(17:07):
And I was like I don't know why my imagination
worked me in such a frenzy. And then I probably
went and played golf, where I was gone and out
of you know where. No one could reach me for
the next four hours. Again, I didn't have a cell phone.
Here's how the day went from my wife. She knew
that I was going to get the results of the test. Also,

(17:27):
she was reasonably sure I didn't have, among other things, aids.
But I guess I was supposed to call and check
in with her and tell her, oh, hey, I got
the results back and everything's fine. So when I didn't
do that, her imagination starts to go and by the
time four hours later, by the time she was done

(17:49):
with all of it, I'd gone to the clinic, got
the results back, found out I was incubating things that
this world had never seen before, and I was a
threat to humanity and probably turning into a World War
ZZ zombie. And so therefore I got in my car
and drove it off a bridge to protect humanity.

Speaker 3 (18:10):
I don't see you doing that.

Speaker 2 (18:11):
So when I continue, well, you think you think I
would want to infect humanity?

Speaker 3 (18:16):
I didn't say that either.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
I don't I'm not big on eating brains, so I
think i'd probably be like, I'm good. So by the
time I got home later that day, she's like, you
had me worried, sick, like and I'd already forgotten about
it was four hours ago. Like what She's like, I
thought you probably got a test bag. She was crying.

(18:39):
I had her scared all day, and I understand because
just a few hours earlier, I was convinced I had
something terrible. That's shortly thereafter. That's what I decided maybe
I should get a cell phone.

Speaker 3 (18:51):
I was thinking, maybe you should get a different girl.
At that point you no, no, no, no. At that point,
you weren't even married yet, and she's flipping out on
you like that. You know I love you.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
It shows It shows that she cares.

Speaker 3 (19:07):
Yeah, and she didn't turn out to be that way
right except for to get you.

Speaker 2 (19:12):
To take she if she can't get a whole she
texts me and I don't get back to her after
fifteen minutes, her mind will get to that point like, well,
he ran off. He left the family.

Speaker 3 (19:29):
My friend and I discussed. We decided that the reason
back in the day used to be a big JOKEO.
My dad went out for ice cream and never came back. Yeah,
so we decided.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
A terrible joke, it is, but.

Speaker 3 (19:41):
We decided that it wasn't because he didn't want to
come back. It's because those guys all were all in
vehicles that couldn't turn left, couldn't come back.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
You could take rights until you get back. You can
take rights around the whole neighborhood and get back to
where start. Anyway, Elon Musk, Yes, he's been scheduling some meetings. Now,
if Kamala Harris had won the election, let's just bask
in that thought for a second. If Kamala Harris had

(20:15):
won the election and she'd pulled a titan of industry,
let's say a guy who just a couple of years
ago a lot of left leaning people in this country
absolutely adored as this innovator and a person who was
going to lead us forward into the next fifty years
of innovation. That guy was Elon Musk. So let's say

(20:35):
Elon managed to be a left leaning guy and everything
he said and did was exactly the same, except he
liked Kamala Harris, voted to her, and she said, I'm
going to put you in charge of this new department
of government. Efficiency, and Elon Musk said, not only am
I not getting paid to do this, I'm getting started
right now. And he already took a meeting with Iran's

(20:57):
ambassador to the United Nations so they could get together
soon and talk about diffusing tensions between Iran and the
United States, which works out great for America. It works
out great between Iran and Russia and Russian tensions and
what Russia is doing in Ukraine. And of course chief
among these concerns is what Iran has been funding and

(21:18):
promoting in the Middle East. We've got to lower these
tensions other or we go to war. I mean, there's
one or the other right now. And Trump and Elon
have decided go meet with them and see what we
can work out. Surely we can work something out, and
so Musk has set up a meeting. They met actually
this past Monday to talk about all of this. And

(21:42):
we just found out yesterday. Now, if Musk had done
this under what's going to be the Kamala Harris administration,
and here everyone would say, this is great. Boy are
they They're getting right to work? Boy do we choose
the right team? But it's everything's exactly the same, except
instead of Harris, it's Trump. Therefore all of this is terrible. Oh,

(22:06):
we know what they're doing. They're probably they're doing what
to Iran giving them an aircraft carrier full of cash,
that's what the Obama Biden administration did, or unfreezing their
assets so they could start funding has Balan Hamas to
kill Israelis. That's what the Biden Harris administration did. What
exactly do you think the Trump administration is gonna do
in this meeting with Iran to try and diffuse tensions

(22:29):
to not have this World War three breakout? That's any
worse than what Biden, Obama Harris have already been a
part of. And Elon Musk was on a phone call
between Trump and the President of Ukraine, Zelensky, that happened
the day after the election. These guys are actively working

(22:53):
on these things that they said they would do, and
they're not waiting till day one. Day one is January twentieth.
This happened in the hours after the election results. Like
I said at the end of yesterday show, don't you
wish it was four years from now so you could
look at all the people who right now are saying

(23:13):
this is gonna be terrible. They're gonna do horrible things,
and women aren't gonna have rights, and black gay Eskimos
aren't gonna have rights, and Noah's gonna and don't you
wish you could just fast forward four years from now
and find these people and say, see all those things
you were worried about, none of them happened, and look
at all these great things that did happen. I hope

(23:34):
that all comes true. I can tell you it looks
like they're getting right to work. Understanding. We've got a
Senate and a House in our favor that's probably for
two years. We've got the White House for four years,
but who knows what the House and the Senate might
look like in two years. This country's kind of weird
when it comes to midterm elections. So we don't have

(23:55):
time to waste. Let's go. These guys are in Tom
Brady mode. It's just LFG with the Trump administration and
what Elon Musk is doing with the DOGE, the Department
of Government Efficiency. Lucy got a really nice email here
from LaDonna says great show this morning, Like, thank you, LaDonna.
But then I'm on another email string for a partner

(24:18):
of ours in another city in the Midwest, and she
was responding. I got on the email and she was
responding to him about his show this morning. Oh so.
But still, as I look at the screen to my
right here, the first thing I see is great show
this morning. And if I don't click on the email

(24:40):
and read the rest of it, I can just go
ahead and take that as she's talking about this one.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
Take it as a win. Yep, it's a win.

Speaker 2 (24:47):
I should just email back, Thanks LaDonna, thanks so much
for listening. Like, who's this guy? I would? I'm just
going to delete that email. Chris says, your wife is Latina, right,
because mine is too, and she's exactly the same way. Yeah,
my wife that Lucy and I are. Lucy's trying to
get me to break up with We've been married twenty

(25:08):
two years. She's the mother of my kids. It's getting
kind of serious, and you're like, why don't you go
back in time and dump that broad? Is that what
you're saying? How dare you?

Speaker 3 (25:18):
I don't think those were the words I used.

Speaker 2 (25:21):
Katie says Rubella is not a mild form of the measles.
It used to be called German measles. Oh you want
the measles. We have? Measles can cause blindness and deafness
in children. What who said that? And oh, I should
stop joking? Katie says, I had it when I was

(25:43):
in junior high because the vaccine apparently didn't work. Oh,
science denier. Katie says, I had to be in a
dark room for two weeks while I had it so
it wouldn't affect my eyesight. Everyone just thought she was goth,
but she had the I'm in the measles.

Speaker 3 (26:01):
Huh, so the vaccine didn't work. She got a bad batch.

Speaker 2 (26:07):
What she said? What she said? Who do I look like?
RFK Junior? I don't know. She had to be in
a dark room for two weeks. Did they make you
listen to the cure the entire time? She had to
hang out in the dark room. We're all black and
listen to the Misfits. There's a good eighties to early

(26:31):
nineties kind of a cure, like gothy kind of band. Right.

Speaker 3 (26:38):
I wasn't goth, my little brother was, though I wasn't.

Speaker 2 (26:42):
I wasn't at all goth, but man, the girls it's
at school who were very intriguing, very intriguing, show up
like all black you know, baggy pants, flannels, you know,
they had like the half they had really cool yeah,
really cool hairstyles and like the eyeliner. It was all

(27:03):
that and they'd just be like whatever. I don't know.
I was like, I think I like her. I think
that I think that she would probably have no problem
killing me and hiding the body. But I'm intrigued by
all of this. Yeah, just really cool. They just sit
there and talk about how great the Smiths are. I'm like,

(27:24):
I know, Kathy and Bob they lived up to no
not damn you mora and they would never raise their
voice though, like no, you don't, you don't know, you're
so American. I'm like, thank you, Like I don't know.

Speaker 3 (27:37):
These are the kids that are now adults that are
writing all of our horror movies.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
I watched the new m Night Shyamalan movie.

Speaker 3 (27:45):
That's not him, I know, but I do like him.

Speaker 2 (27:49):
What is it? I like his movie Trap. It's a
guy going to a teeny bopper pop star concert with
his teenage daughter. So they think, you know, Taylor Swift
is in town. He got tickets, and they go to
the concert and strange things start happening.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
Are we still at a Taylor Swift concert because I can.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
Be for nearly the entire movie. Yeah, it's it's very weird,
like a lot of m Night Shyamalan movies. I'm not
sure if I liked it or hated it. They's just
like my thoughts on goth Kicks in the nineties. Very intriguing,
but it was kind of fun. So RFK Junior is
the Health and Human Services Director and people are like, Oh, no,

(28:35):
what're you gonna do to this country? I don't know,
Let's see what's going on with this country now. Report
says obesity is at a crisis point in the United
States of America. Ah, I can't imagine that the Health
and Human Services Director appreciates that. Now, Yeah, obesity is

(28:55):
at a crisis point. Nearly seventy five percent of adults
over the age of twenty five in this country are
overweight or obese. There's no way that's true.

Speaker 3 (29:07):
Think of everyone are overweight. I can believe overweight. Overweight
doesn't mean that you're fat.

Speaker 2 (29:14):
I mean, am I overweight? I could?

Speaker 3 (29:19):
It's just like the blood pressure Scott that when we
were all above one thirty or we were all below
one thirty. So everybody was fine with their blood pressure.
Then the the medical I don't know who does this,
the FDA who sets these, lowered that to I don't
know what is it. Now you have to be under

(29:40):
one twenty now because people were making it just fine
with the first parameters. Oh, we're not selling enough high
blood pressure medication, so we got to lower that standard.
So if you lower the standard of how what fat is, yeah,
you can make it. You can put the what's fat
market any place along the entire your line of people

(30:02):
and get the results you want, just like anything else.
So yeah, seventy five percent, take a look around.

Speaker 2 (30:08):
Yeah, as I put it at that, as Lucy Chapman
once famously said.

Speaker 3 (30:12):
I've never had fat in that spot before.

Speaker 2 (30:17):
Was a commercial. I remember that I did that in
a commercial.

Speaker 3 (30:19):
I've never had fat in that spot before. That's a
classic I'm hungry.

Speaker 2 (30:27):
I got Lucy saying all kinds of fun stuff. First
she says I'm hungry, and then later she looks and says,
I never.

Speaker 3 (30:33):
Had fat in that spot before.

Speaker 2 (30:37):
See, even when you're not here, I can have good
conversations with Lucy Chapman. Oh, so if you're looking at
this going, there's no way that nearly seventy five percent
of US adults over at the age of twenty five
are overweight or obese. It doesn't seem to make any sense.
Until while Lucy was just talking about that, I was
doing some little TYPEE type action over here. Sorry if

(30:59):
it look like I was ignoring you, but I typed in,
I'm six foot tall, I'm an American male. My pronouns
are American male. So I said, how much should a
six foot American mail weigh? According to most health guidelines,

(31:22):
a six foot American male should weigh between one hundred
and forty and one hundred and seventy seven pounds. See,
that's ridiculous that I would if I weigh one hundred
and forty pounds, I would look emaciated. The story I
had earlier about how I thought, you know, the blood
test with the aids and all that stuff. In case

(31:42):
you missed that earlier, I didn't really think it was
a long story, but I would age patients from the
movie Philadelphia would look at me and go, you should
probably put on a few pounds, one hundred and forty pounds.
You want to know how much eyeigh?

Speaker 3 (31:58):
Go ahead, I'm not going to tell you how much eyeigh.

Speaker 2 (32:00):
I'm gonna say right now today. And I had a nice,
healthy dinner last night, and I didn't have any ice cream,
so I'm probably one ninety three. Do I look obese
to you?

Speaker 3 (32:11):
Not at all.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
That's because I'm sucking in my guts well, sitting up
a little talk. But I'm not. I mean by this guideline.

Speaker 3 (32:20):
I have thirty pounds overweight.

Speaker 2 (32:21):
I'm I'm morbidly obe If you're going one hundred and forty,
I'm fifty pounds overweight.

Speaker 3 (32:27):
But you've got you hit that top end. So yeah,
you're thirty. But you're right that fifty pounds is obese?
Is it morbidly obese? Or do you have to be
one hundred pounds.

Speaker 2 (32:37):
Let's see overweight is uh see, I don't know what
my BMI is. My bass, my bass. My body mass
index is twenty five or above, that's overweight. Obese is
thirty or above. It doesn't say morbidly obese. They probably
said stop calling people morbidly obese? Why makes people feel bad?

(33:02):
Like when Peter Griffin went to the doctor and the
doctor says, yeah, you're just a little fat, he goes,
excuse me, yeah, you're a little fat. Oh this is
news to me. You know, some people don't realize it.
So as Trump is trying to shake up health in
this country and RFK Junior like, stop eating so many
ultra processed foods. Mix in some celery once in a while.

(33:22):
People are like, eh, guys, crazy is We're just sitting
here eating oatmeal cream pie flavored ice cream for breakfast,
which I would absolutely do. Mostly, I think that these
government officials, when it comes to American overall health and
so forth, how about shut up and mind your own

(33:43):
business or at least adjust the standards. Come on, a
six foot American male should weigh between one hundred and
forty and one hundred and seventy seven pounds. I'm not fat.
My left leg weighs one hundred and forty pounds. Here's
another story.

Speaker 3 (34:01):
And your right legs only eighty right, that's right, change
looking man, Yes I am.

Speaker 2 (34:09):
People love being in a three legged race with me.
I'm gonna have to be on the left side of
this because as you can see here, old Alrighty is
a little emaciated. Fit's good in the bag, you know,
put me in a gunny sack. The fact that's what
I call my right leg, Old Gunny Sack three legged
race champion thirteen years in a row. I don't like

(34:31):
to brag though. My partner though in the race, whose
left leg clocks, you know, checks in sixty four pounds
three ounces. He you know, he'll brag about it. I'm like,
come on, yeah, our names are oh Ian and what

(34:52):
were the names of the Siamese twins. That'd been a
good reference if I could think what those guys' names are,
Ang and Chang.

Speaker 3 (34:59):
Yeah, I think something.

Speaker 2 (35:01):
Our names are Ang and Chang. I'll fix that.

Speaker 1 (35:03):
On the podcast, it's Scott Voices news Radio eleven ten Kfab.

Speaker 2 (35:09):
Charles email Scott atkfab dot com. I'm Scott here on
news radio eleven ten Kfab with Lucy Chapman. Charles says, Hey,
they're my corpulate friend. I hope you can get through
the show without wheezing. By the way, I'm about the
same dimensions as you. Well, thanks for the email there, Tubby,
appreciate it. Rob says, uh oh, based on my weight,

(35:30):
my ideal height should be seven to six. It can
be easier to get to that than down to my
ideal weight. Lucy one more story here about the state
of health in this country. A guy went to a
Planet Fitness location in Indianapolis last Friday, got inside a
tanning bed, died. Planet Fitness was open all day Saturday

(35:54):
and all day Sunday. Midday on Monday, someone decided to
go use the tanning bed. They found Derek.

Speaker 3 (36:03):
Well, surely it wasn't on all that time. I don't
they have to be on a timer.

Speaker 2 (36:08):
I don't know. He was roughly the same shade as
Donald Trump after three days in the tanning bed. Whether
or not your favorite batman is Michael Keaton, We're glad
that you are here on news Radio eleven ten kfav
I'm Scott Vorhees. My favorite batman is Michael Keaton. Lucy,
do you have a favorite batman? There's only one other

(36:30):
answer I would allow.

Speaker 3 (36:32):
You're gonna think that I'm just being a copycat, but
Michael Keaton is actually my favorite.

Speaker 2 (36:37):
You're kidding me. I'm not rare, I know, agreement on
a pop culture reference here. Usually I talk about a
movie or a TV show or a song, and Lucy
just goes, eh, like someone just put bad clams in
her mouth or something. But I'm I'm excited. We feel
the same way on this one.

Speaker 3 (36:56):
Well, it's because of the way he says, I'm.

Speaker 2 (37:00):
Yeah, I know. That was the clip.

Speaker 3 (37:01):
Was the coolest thing I ever saw.

Speaker 2 (37:03):
That was the clip we just had.

Speaker 3 (37:04):
Yeah, well, I was you figure out this disclosure of these.

Speaker 2 (37:08):
Ramps and do you have traffic news?

Speaker 3 (37:11):
Well, no, because it's they've been canceled, they've been postponed,
they've been now I'm getting reports that one of them. Anyway,
it's it's all on four eighty. You might run into
ramps on four eighty close.

Speaker 2 (37:23):
Do you want to hear the clip again?

Speaker 3 (37:24):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (37:25):
Are you.

Speaker 3 (37:27):
I'm Batman? Yes.

Speaker 2 (37:29):
There was a really dumb movie that came out a
year or so ago called The Flash, and it the
only reason I watched it is because Michael Keaton in
that alternate universe that the Flash finds him elfin. He
finds himself in the universe where Michael Keaton is Batman,
and he does do that line again where they end

(37:51):
up in his kitchen. I'm not giving the movie away.

Speaker 3 (37:54):
I want to go see this movie now.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
I would only recommend watching the parts with Michael Keaton
in it, all right, but they up in his kitchen
they're like, hey, your he goes Yeah, I'm Batman.

Speaker 3 (38:05):
I love it.

Speaker 2 (38:07):
How awesome have our lives been to grow up in
an era where we have Michael Keaton to entertain us.
I'm all about it.

Speaker 3 (38:17):
Well, I can think of some other great things that
happened in my lifetime, but that'll be up there in
the top fifty.

Speaker 2 (38:22):
I can't. It's only Batman. Beetlejuice, mister Mom Beetlejuice too.
Night Shift, Yeah, night Shift is fun. The Heights is
that the name of that movie where it's kind of
a scary movie. He plays a creepy bad guy. He's
really good at it. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (38:39):
It's where the whole family moves into a house.

Speaker 2 (38:42):
So it's Melanie Griffith and her husband or something. He's
the landlord and he's super creepy. He's so good at it.
I wasn't planned on talking Hollywood stuff here, but since
we already went in that direction, I will start Hollywood
and move towards the blend between Hollywood and politics, because oh,
we have a good one here, and then we'll then

(39:02):
we'll get back here on the tracks. First of all,
I have a feeling that you're going to disappoint me
and part company with me on my exuberants over this news.
They announced the host of the Oscars this year, this
coming Academy Awards.

Speaker 3 (39:19):
Please say Ricky your vase? Please say Ricky your vase.

Speaker 2 (39:21):
No damn Conan O'Brien. Hmmm, I love Conan O'Brien.

Speaker 3 (39:28):
I used to love Conan O'Brien.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
Well, then, what has he possibly done or not done
that would cause you to fall out of love with
Conan O'Brien.

Speaker 3 (39:37):
He's not as funny as he used to be.

Speaker 2 (39:41):
He hasn't been on TV in years.

Speaker 3 (39:43):
I watched his podcast.

Speaker 2 (39:44):
He the podcast is amazing.

Speaker 3 (39:46):
It's okay, what really?

Speaker 2 (39:48):
Okay? All right? Anyway, he's taken up. I guess Jimmy
Kimmel hosted the last couple of years. I'm in and
out of watching the Academy Awards. I mean, we walk watch.
My wife and I sat down and watched two openings
of the nineteen nineties Academy Awards when Billy Crystal would

(40:09):
host and he would insert himself in all these different
movie scenes. Now that's the gold standard. Billy Crystal was
the best. But I haven't really watched much over the years,
mostly because it's like, here's thirteen movies up for Best Picture.
Haven't seen any of the things.

Speaker 3 (40:28):
That's always been the case. I haven't watched it in
years because it's boring, because it's just a bunch of
people with all other political.

Speaker 2 (40:35):
Views, right, and plus, you can watch anything if there's
a good moment, if you have a couple of funny presenters,
or something crazy happens, there's other great musical performance, or
you do what we all do every year watching the
in memoriam segment where you watch it and go, oh, yeah,
uh oh, he died. You know. You do that for
three and a half minutes, and that's really nice. And

(40:56):
usually the opening has always been pretty good. I haven't
I can't think of anything that Kimmel's done the last
couple of years. And I'm not a default hater of
Jimmy Kimmel, even though he seems to hate this country now,
but I love Conan O'Brien. In a statement, Conan said,
America demanded it, and now it's happening. Taco Bell's new

(41:16):
cheesy Cheloupa Supreme. In other news, I'm hosting the Oscars
March second on ABC, the ninety seventh Academy Awards. Good
for Conan. Another bit of Hollywood news, Gladiator two is
coming out. Denzel Washington is in it. He's not the Gladiator.
He's seemingly one of the off with his head. You know,
Emperor is sitting up there or something. But Denzel Washington

(41:40):
says he filmed a notable moment for Gladiator two in
which he kisses a man on the lips. Not in
a passionate way, but it was the and he says,
I kissed a man in the film, and then a
few minutes later I ended up killing him. It's the
kids of Kiss of Death.

Speaker 3 (42:01):
Well it wasn't that a Katy Perry song.

Speaker 2 (42:04):
No, that's I kissed a girl and I think I
liked it. Not I kissed a guy and then I
murdered him. He plays a Roman businessman. His house described here, Hey,
I can get you guys a great deal on lions.
He's a colosseum. The colosseum lion salesman is what he plays.

(42:25):
There's the cases. He's the the Willie Lowman of ancient Rome.
So Denzel says, says, I kissed a guy on the lips,
but they cut it out of the movie. And Denzel says,
I think they got chicken. I think that they weren't
ready for that yet. Yes, Denzel, I don't know if
you watch TV or any movies in the last ten

(42:48):
years especially or so, but everything. I saw an ad
for Raisin brand the other day where these two guys
were having sex. Every by the way, this joke. Every
single com Marshal movie, TV show features everyone kissing. Everyone's kissing.
So yeah, it was the son and his partner with

(43:09):
the two scoops of Raisin. They were getting it on
in this commercial. And you know what, I kind of
liked it. We'll explore those feelings later. But for Denzel
to say, yeah, I kissed the guy in the lips,
but I guess they weren't ready for it yet, Like
that is so tone deaf. First of all the people

(43:30):
who most I'll tell you the only thing I haven't
really I can handle seeing a couple of guys kiss.
I'm confident enough in my own masculinity I can handle it,
and the show that I'm equal opportunity. I can absolutely
handle two women kissing. Asked asterisk, I won't go down

(43:52):
into the asterisk, But I don't you know what I'm
talking about so I'm fine with. The thing is is,
we would watch these shows together as a family, and
pretty soon here's a couple of guys kissing, and my
kids are like, especially my son, he's like, ah, he's
kissing that guy, Like yeah, yes he is. Yeah, little kids,

(44:13):
and I you know, you just move on deal with
but you're kind of like it kind of ruined it.
It took us out of the show because now we
had to explain this to little kids who and there
are people right now listening going it's about time their
kids be exposed to that. And I know everyone's family's
a little different. But when Denzel says, I don't think

(44:36):
they were ready for it, I think they got chicken,
probably because they wanted this movie to make some money overseas.
And as much as people walk around demonizing America and saying, oh,
this country is so anti LGBTQ and all the rest
of it, you know who else really doesn't like all
that stuff? Pretty much the entire rest of the world
except for pockets of Europe. And they're saying, yeah, we

(44:59):
don't have any with it, but we do want people
in several continents to watch this movie. It helps to
make money. And if an entire continent or three aren't
gonna watch this because Denzel kisses a guy, then maybe
we just don't need that scene in the movie. You

(45:21):
can blame it on America homophobia or whatever, but hey,
go take it up with all those Muslim countries, like
we'll watch the Roman Gladiators get after it, but not
in that way you like movies about gladiators. There have

(45:42):
been the cockpit of a plane before. There's your.

Speaker 3 (45:46):
Eighties movie yesterday about Jaws.

Speaker 2 (45:50):
Yeah, I'm glad you were listening on your way to
leaving this radio show. One more movie and this whear
we could blend a little bit more into politics here,
and we'll come back on what kid should be exposed
to when it comes to gender identity and orientation and
so forth, based on what they're doing in Iowa in
what people are losing their mind about in Nebraska. But

(46:11):
here's the last Hollywood rooted story. I don't know who
Rachel Zegler is. I guess she was in the latest
remake of West Side Story. She played Maria. And then
there was a Hunger Games. That's right, I'm singing show
tunes here, And just in case anyone's like that guy

(46:33):
in the radio is homophobic. Yeah, I am on here
singing show tunes, not homophobic. But I have no problem
basing my commentary and lazy stereotypes. She also played someone
named Lucy in the Hunger Games prequel, which I didn't
even know existed. I have not watched much of the

(46:54):
Hunger Games.

Speaker 3 (46:54):
I've not seen a single minute of any of them.

Speaker 2 (46:57):
But Rachel also plays a character I am quite familiar with.
She plays snow White, a movie that's going to be
released this spring. It's the live action version of snow White.
Rachel also has some feelings on politics.

Speaker 3 (47:14):
What done it out of Hollywood?

Speaker 2 (47:16):
Yeah? Do tell Rachel, what did you have to say
on Instagram in the wake of the election. I'll have
to change a couple of words, she said, quote may
Trump supporters and Trump voters and Trump himself never know peace.

(47:38):
I find myself speechless in the midst of this, another
four years of hatred leaning US towards the world I
do not want to live in. Trump is a man
who threatens our democracy, and the election shows the deep,
deep sickness that has taken hold in the United States.
It is terrifying the number of people who stand behind

(48:01):
what this man preaches. It is a foolish subscription to
a false sense of security, of masculinity, of intelligence, of patriotism,
and of humanity. There is no help, no counsel in
any of them. I could go on, I won't. I
feel sad. You probably do too. Blank this. I will
love through these four years as best I can. But

(48:22):
blank Donald Trump unquote classy?

Speaker 3 (48:25):
You mad?

Speaker 2 (48:27):
Yeah? Other than that, Rachel, how else are you doing?

Speaker 3 (48:32):
I wish that when you hear statements like that, these
blanket statements, tell me, why break it down, Tell me
what it is you are afraid of that he's going
to do to thwart your democracy.

Speaker 2 (48:48):
There are people who they know and love who have
this delusion that Trump is going to do all these
horrible things that somehow he just forgot to do in
his first term. But he's like, oh yeah, I remember,
and he's going to do him over the next four years.
They're delusions, but these people really believe them. And what

(49:09):
I really wonder about in four years from now, Number one,
will I still have a job here? And number two
slightly behind that, when those things don't happen, will they
admit it? Will they say, oh, well, I'm glad I
was wrong, or thank goodness we had strong democrats like

(49:29):
whoever it is that they latch onto here in the
next few years, who stop these things from happen. Whatever,
these things are not going to happen, first of all,
because Trump has no intention of making some of these
horrible things that they think are going to happen happen.
As much as you hate Matt Gets and Trump and
the rest of these guys, whatever delusions you have are
not going to happen. But to say that there's no

(49:52):
help and no humanity and you hope that no Trump supporters,
no peace. Many of them said, well, I know how
I'm gonna get back an hour and forty five minutes
of my life this spring. I'm not gonna watch this movie.
And so now Disney is stuck between. Look, we feel

(50:13):
the same way you do, but we just don't go
around broadcasting it like that. Could you maybe not say
that stuff. We're trying to sell movie tickets. Republic Trump supporters,
of which they're more than half the country, buy movie tickets.
They have kids, They have fond memories of watching the
Snow White cartoon with their families growing up, and now

(50:33):
they want to take their kids who want to see
the Snow White movie to the movie, and now they're
not going to. Thanks Rachel, I wonder if they're going
to reshoot the movie, this time with a black actress
as snow White, just to see how you like it. Now,
speaking of what they're talking about doing with books and

(50:54):
lesson plans at Iowa schools, and what they're talking about
with diversity at the University of Nebraska Lincoln, we'll get
to both of these stories next.

Speaker 1 (51:02):
Scott Voices News Radio eleven ten Kfab.

Speaker 2 (51:07):
Kevin Emails and the Zonkers Custom Woods Inbox scottikfab dot com.
And if you just joined the program, this is going
to include a lot of contexts that's going to go
way over your head. Just I'm not going to re
explain everything. I just want you to know what you've
missed at this point that got to this email. Kevin says,
hey there, Hot Scott. While working on well work, Kevin says,

(51:32):
hey there, Hot Scott, while working I listen to your
show every day on my phone without earbuds because I
want everyone to hear greatness while walking into the workplace today. Everyone,
apparently there are a lot of people around Kevin. Everyone
got to hear about how you enjoy watching two dudes kiss?

(51:52):
I got a lot of looks. What's he listening to?
Guess I should turn the volume down next time. Good
show today, Fatty signed Kevin. All of that's rooted and
things that we're discussed on this radio show this morning.

Speaker 3 (52:06):
I like Kevin.

Speaker 2 (52:08):
This one is from I do too. Thank you, Thank you, Kevin.
Crank up the volume. It'll feature probably a lot fewer
sexual overtones. Maybe I don't know. Michelle. Haven't heard from
Michelle in a while. Always love A good message from
Michelle is talking about the actress who plays snow White,

(52:31):
saying that she hates Trump and his supporters. Michelle says
she said that she'll love the next it loved the
best she can for the next four years, but wishes
no peace for Trump and his voters. How's that for
loving people? That's the majority of the country. By the way,
they changed a lot of the Snow White movie plot
and characters. Maybe no dwarves? Is that true? How are

(52:55):
you gonna have snow White without dwarves?

Speaker 3 (52:59):
Well, they still have them. They're just called very short people.

Speaker 2 (53:03):
Well, it's probably deemed to be bad to have short
people working. Meanwhile, people in this country, especially in Hollywood
or our little people are like, hey, I mean they
got excited. I heard they're making a new snow White movie.
That's jobs for us and our stuntmen. But they decided
to go the other way with it. Now snow White

(53:23):
ends up shacking up with the Los Angeles Lakers.

Speaker 3 (53:28):
Stuff your political correctness, Give me a job.

Speaker 2 (53:30):
I'm a door, right, and the prince isn't allowed to
kiss her while she's sleeping because she didn't consent bah,
which brings us to this story. K ETV News Watch
seven with the report. The Iowa State Board of Education
is putting the as it's reported here, the finishing touches

(53:54):
on their rules for schools in Iowa. First of all,
when it comes to what books young people are to
have access to, schools have to remove books depicting sexual
acts from their libraries. Now they're not saying a couple

(54:14):
of things. One was it like sixth seventh, eighth seventh,
sixth seventh grade, you have like human sexuality class sex sad,
it's what they have. And these books they wouldn't depict
the acts. I mean, that's not in the books. We

(54:35):
got but they're still able to have these conversations that
are age appropriate with age appropriate materials. But some of
these books that feature you know, how to Please your
Man and so forth available to fourth graders in the library,
you know, some of these things that they don't they
don't need to be in these in these school libraries

(54:57):
for any that book in there, probably yeah, but it's
for other guys. So not that there's anything wrong with that.
So that's the other thing. Here's something else. The Iowa
State Board of Education isn't sane. They're saying, look, if
they've got hardcore pornographic materials that you want to read

(55:18):
your kids as they go to sleep every night, you know,
today we're going to read from this this wonderful children's
book called Peaches goes to the logging camp, and you're
going to read this to your kids. You can still
do it. They're just not going to have it available
to kids who find it in the library or it's
part of the curriculum, which also SAIDs we're banning discussions

(55:40):
on gender identity and sexual orientation before seventh grade. These
kids in grade school should go through grade school without
having all these conversations and right and I know that
there are people, like there's a gay teacher saying, so
what my my hetero cohorts here at the school can

(56:03):
display the pictures of them with their spouses because they're
of the opposite sex, But it's now taboo for me
to display a picture of my loving husband here in
the classroom.

Speaker 3 (56:13):
Was that discussed?

Speaker 2 (56:15):
Do you ever remember seeing a picture of your teacher's
family anywhere in the classroom.

Speaker 1 (56:22):
No?

Speaker 3 (56:22):
But even if they even if they do do this,
then fine, put up whatever picture you want. I don't care.

Speaker 2 (56:29):
Yeah, the third grader is that they see a loving
gay couple. They're just gonna look at that and go
they're friends. Yeah, whatever, third grade. But to sit them
down and go, I want to teach you about homosexual relationships, Kevin,
you got that phone cranked up there at work. That
no one's saying you can or can't do or be anything.

(56:50):
We're just trying to have legitimate goalposts on this stuff.
I don't see anything in hear this out of bounds. Now.
They're still whining at the University Nebraska Lincoln after the
university decided to end DEI, the Office of Diversity, Equity

(57:12):
and Inclusion. They're dissolving the office, and a panel of
professors at the university have gathered to share their thoughts
and they say, this is just terrible. We feel betrayed
by the university people, students at this university don't feel
safe here at this university anymore. This is so stupid,

(57:34):
this idea that they're horribly whether it's racist, sexist, and
or homophobic students around the University of Nebraska Lincoln a
lot of them, but the only thing that kept them
at bay was the Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
Like they get together for these secret meetings and go,
you know what, I want to mock these gay black people,

(57:56):
but I can't because then I gotta go meet with
the DEI office going to say stop that, and I
don't want to, you know, like, what what do you
think is happening here? But here's the dirty little secret. Diversity,
equity and inclusion is still alive at many colleges, the
University of Nebraska Lincoln included. I'm sure right now my

(58:19):
wife is saying, Scott, I know what road you're going down.
Please don't do it. Don't do it, all right, let's
do it. My daughter is a senior in high school.
She's college shopping. Of course, the University of Nebraska Lincoln
is right there at or near the top of the list.
It's a great school. A lot of her friends go there.
It's a great school. In applications for certain things, it

(58:43):
quickly goes from how old are you, what's your date
of birth? You know that kind of thing, what's your
act score, what's your grade point average? And then in
this five thousand or more word essay, tell us all
your thoughts on diversity. There's a lot of stuff like
that in the materials. That's what the DEI office did.

(59:08):
They got paid a bunch of money to make sure
that if you're applying for this or you're looking to
be accepted for that, that you have to do a
lot of different essays and check a lot of boxes
when it comes to diversity. That's all they did. I
don't no student felt more less or equal to based

(59:29):
on anything. These guys got paid a bunch of money
and they're like, put some stuff in there about diversity. There,
our work is done. That'll be a million dollars. And
they dissolved the office about three months ago. But if
your child is thinking about going to Deer old Nebraska
you in the next school year. All that stuff still

(59:50):
in there, and that's fine, but it doesn't mean that
this office is completely done. Half is all still there.
And rather than trying to accept students from all different
background walks of life and just based on the best

(01:00:10):
in the brightest, it looks like they're still checking some
quota boxes there. If I said enough to guarantee my
child will not be accepted at the University of Nebraska
Lincoln right now, Hillsdale's like will.

Speaker 3 (01:00:22):
Take her, never keep going.

Speaker 2 (01:00:24):
Liberty universities on the line will take her. We were
talking about snow White and the Seven Dwarves and how
maybe they wouldn't have them be dwarves in this movie
because it's for some reason not politically correct or something.
But Greg emails and says it's probably because dwarves are
naturally upset. After all, six out of seven dwarves are

(01:00:47):
not happy.

Speaker 3 (01:00:51):
That is great. I love it.

Speaker 2 (01:00:55):
Such a dumb dad joke. I do too. That's why
I read the email now a moment ago where I
usually jump on there and go up next, I'm going
to talk about this, it's coming up next. I looked
at the thing I had next to talk about, and
I don't really feel like talking about it, So that's
what I said. Up next, whatever Lucy Chapman wants. So
you had two minutes. What's on your mind there, Lucy Chapman.

Speaker 3 (01:01:18):
Well, first of all, I want to tell you that
Q Street is shut down westbound. Yeah, vehicle fire at
one hundred and twenty eighth. I don't have the exact
where it's shut down, but let's just assume one hundred
and twentieth because it's westbound.

Speaker 2 (01:01:29):
Okay, thank you? All right?

Speaker 3 (01:01:30):
So I want to talk about Christmas music or Christmas movies?
Good movies?

Speaker 2 (01:01:36):
I can reto movies? Can I veto this topic?

Speaker 1 (01:01:39):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:01:40):
Two weeks from Thanksgiving?

Speaker 3 (01:01:42):
That's when you should be laying it out.

Speaker 2 (01:01:44):
You don't think I'm going to have areas of the
program that lend itself to Christmas conversations after Thanksgiving? Just
give me, give us an appetizer.

Speaker 3 (01:01:54):
Was I supposed to be on this show? What? What
did you not say?

Speaker 2 (01:01:59):
Okay, I know what I said, but now I'm regretting it.

Speaker 3 (01:02:02):
Then do what you want.

Speaker 2 (01:02:03):
I will, but let's at least give us a teaser.

Speaker 3 (01:02:07):
What you apparently the best Christmas movies.

Speaker 2 (01:02:11):
Here's what you want. You want to pick a beloved
Christmas film that everyone else but you likes, and you
want to trash it on the radio. And I'm not
sure I need to let you do that. So what
Christmas Story? You don't like it?

Speaker 3 (01:02:24):
That's not what I was going to do. I was
going to tell you about the two of the best movies,
more recent movies, right, fat man? What fat man? You
haven't seen that yet? It's great with Mel Gibson.

Speaker 2 (01:02:38):
Is he is that a Christmas movie?

Speaker 3 (01:02:39):
Well, he's play Santa. Oh okay, well Chris, Chris whatever, Yeah,
Chris Kringle, Yeah, that's it, Chris Christofferson. And I know
you like this one, well, actually two, the Christmas Chronicles.

Speaker 2 (01:02:51):
I don't know what that is.

Speaker 3 (01:02:53):
I thought you watched them. Russell as Santa, No, never
heard of him. That makes me so jealous because you
get to watch them for the very first time.

Speaker 2 (01:03:03):
The Christmas Chronicles. Can I watch it with the whole family?

Speaker 3 (01:03:06):
Yes, yes, it is. They're great.

Speaker 2 (01:03:12):
I can't watch movies with the whole family anymore because
when the kids were little, they would literally watch anything,
and that's when I would expose them to the classics,
which are still some of their favorite movies like Better
Off Dead, Goonies, you know, great movies. Right. But now
I say, hey, let's do a family movie night. My
daughter is like, oh, I've got a pile of homework er,

(01:03:34):
I'm working, or I was gonna go hang out with
my boyfriend. So she's gone. And then my son just
has this general even though every movie I've ever shown
him he said was a pretty good movie. Anytime I
say what about this movie, I said, trust me, you're
gonna like it. He's just like, eh. I forced him

(01:03:56):
a few years ago to watch stand by Me. You're
kicking and screen I don't want to do it. Hello,
And then afterwards he's like, that's one of my favorite movies.
I'm like, stop fighting me. Stop fighting me. Every time
I say watch.

Speaker 3 (01:04:08):
This movie, and parents do that because I can echo
that exact same situation. When we were growing up, my
mother would take us to movies that would there's no
way I want to sit through this movie. And that
movie list included Little Big Man with Dustin Hoffman.

Speaker 2 (01:04:28):
I haven't seen that yet.

Speaker 3 (01:04:29):
That's a great movie, and Star Wars the original one
thought at the Indian Hills in the front row, your
neck is cranked up because my mother took us to
these movies. Oh in silent movie, mel mel Brooks. Melbrooks
Silent movie. Great movie. So yeah, you're you're absolutely right.
Make your kids go to some of your favorite movies

(01:04:49):
or watch.

Speaker 2 (01:04:50):
Yeah, because once they become teenagers that you can't get
them to do anything. And that's the state I'm in
with my kids.

Speaker 3 (01:04:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:04:59):
By the way, all the colleges just called and said,
your daughter has no chance to get in in here.

Speaker 3 (01:05:04):
Well but not Hillsdale.

Speaker 2 (01:05:06):
Ah, jeez, you want to have a real conversation. Okay,
my daughter is a senior in high school. Apparently things
have changed a little bit since I graduated from high
school about thirty years ago. Now here's how it was.
When I was a senior in high school at dear
Old Ralston High School. At some point late in my

(01:05:29):
senior year, like April, it dawned on me if I
want to go to college, I might want to start
thinking about it. My parents never brought it up. I
guess it was just assumed I would go somewhere. And
I drove myself to a couple of college visits.

Speaker 3 (01:05:48):
Wow, that's kind of sad.

Speaker 2 (01:05:51):
Yeah, I went to my guidance counselor at school and said,
I'm thinking about going to this school. What do I
need to do? And he helped me set everything up,
and they said, if you want to go to college,
you need to get at least this on the act.
I took it bleary eyed on a Saturday morning, got

(01:06:12):
that score. They said, do you want to take it again?
I'm like, why, you know? And so I went to
that school. I think I told my dad that morning
I was going to college. By the way, I'm going
to Carney. And I left, like no one really seemed
to be all that excited about anything related to it.

(01:06:33):
It just was kind of like, yeah, okay, Now, if
you don't have your kid in college by their sixth
grade year, they're never going to get to college. They're
never going to be accepted, they're never going to get
scholarship opportunities, they're not going to be in this program
or that one, you know. And suddenly like all these

(01:06:54):
deadline One of the deadlines I guess is today for something.
It's no member for.

Speaker 3 (01:07:01):
This classes that don't start for almost a year.

Speaker 2 (01:07:03):
Yeah, right, And I'm over here as the old guy, going, ah,
that's stupid. And my wife is like, no, you don't understand, Like, no,
I guess I don't. I don't you just you. And
here's the other really dumb part. My daughter is a

(01:07:23):
senior in high school, which meant that she was the
first class at Omaha Public Schools under the former superintendent,
doctor Sheryl Logan, who when they went into their freshman
year of high school, had to choose what they wanted
to do with the rest of their lives. Remember this
conversation years ago. They called it the career pathways, and

(01:07:45):
you had to at the age of fourteen, decide what
you wanted to do for a living, and a lot
of it was based on, well, if you decide you
want to do this or that, then this is the
school you're going to go to. And most one of
these kids said, I'm just going to go to the
school that my mom says I'm going to because it's
the one in our neighborhood and or it's the one
that all my friends are going to. And they said,

(01:08:07):
what you're going to the school, then congratulations, you're going
to be rubber stamp a teacher. So you got all
these kids right now who are like, well, I guess
I'm going to be a teacher, which is absolutely nothing
wrong with that, But my daughter has been conditioned through
four years of school that she's going to be a teacher.

(01:08:27):
Now she has other interests, she has other skill sets.
She will make a great teacher if that's the road
she goes down. But I said, have you ever thought
about maybe owning and operating your own business franchise? Because
she has had a job since she was fifteen quickly
got to be one of the managers at this job.

(01:08:49):
She loves it and has a good mind for that
kind of thing, And frankly, I'm kind of thinking maybe
we just skipped that whole college thing. There's a bunch
of money. I'll sign a and never get back. I'll
invest in you. Let's go in on a business franchise
and you can run it. I would absolutely do that,

(01:09:10):
And she said, I'd never thought about that. No, because
they've been training these kids in ops not to think
broader about what their future can be. They've been squeezed
into these little pipelines. This is what you're gonna do.
But I don't want to be an airline mechanic. Well
you're gonna be, because we have a partnership with some

(01:09:31):
people over at this business, and they said they need
airline mechanics and they're paying us money. So you're gonna
do this and you're going to the school and you're
gonna learn. But I don't wanna. You know, that's what
if you don't know, if you don't have kids in
high school here over the last few years, you have
no idea.

Speaker 1 (01:09:47):
Here's the part of the show where Lucy says she's
glad she doesn't have kids.

Speaker 2 (01:09:52):
You have no idea what it's been like. You've got
you know who these kids are right now. They're the
faceless drones stepping onto the conveyor belt and falling off
into the sausage grinder. They are the kids from Pink
Floyd's the Wall.

Speaker 3 (01:10:10):
This is the kind of stuff that they're talking about
that Trump is talking about getting rid of. When he
talks about getting rid of the Department of Education. Yeah,
this kind of thinking that you have to tell that
a fourteen year old has to plan out their life.

Speaker 2 (01:10:26):
Yeah that and yes and no, Because the national Department
of Education didn't say and all the schools are doing this,
this was a local decision. So if let's say Trump
gets rid of the Department of Education. People go, finally
we're getting some of this woke garbage out of our schools. Huh,
it means local control. Who'd you vote for for school board?

(01:10:48):
I don't know. I don't research any of these people.
I just know President and Congress and Senate like school
board very very important. So is anything that Lee is
Nearly every single member of the Omaha Public Schools Board
woke lefty. Yes they are. Is whatever they end up

(01:11:09):
doing for a superintendent going to be probably a pretty
woke lefty. Absolutely, will local control change any of this stuff.
The only way it will is if parents fight back
what they've done here with these pathways, with block scheduling.

(01:11:30):
You've got some teachers who hate being there because eight
hundred of their cohorts left Omaha Public Schools in the
last couple of years of doctor Cheryl Logan. They left
the school district and the people who are there, some
of them, not all of them. Some of them are
bad teachers who are unqualified to do anything else. But

(01:11:51):
they've been brought up in this and they can't fill
a forty five minute class, let alone an hour and
a half block schedule. And so these kids are in
there watching movies or screwing around or whatever, and it's
it's because of the woke agenda and the bad decisions

(01:12:12):
by some of these local leaders. Trump can't change that.
That has nothing to do with the Department of Education.
But if you want to put me in charge of
the school board, I accept that job. And OPS right
now is like, thank goodness. Your daughter is a senior,
so she's out of this district, so you'll stop complaining

(01:12:33):
about Oh, you forgot. I have two kids and the
other one is a freshman, so you got me for
a few more years. Now. There's a good chance he's
going to end up leaving school and going straight to
either the NBA or jail, so maybe you won't have
to deal with me for all of the next four years.
