Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time time time, time, Luck and load. The
Michael Verie Show is on the air. Friends in talking.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
One of them works at a big company. I was
talking about healthcare plan. His wife was saying, now it's
very stressful because they used to have Blue Cross, Blue Shield,
and now they're going to a lesser provider, a lesser plan.
(01:01):
And without regard to this conversation, because these are very
informed folks, but I've had this conversation with people, and
one of the reasons people don't vote Republican instead a
Democrat is because they don't vote on the basis of
things that actually matter to their lives.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
I'll give you an example.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
People have noticed that the quality of healthcare has gone
down dramatically. If you go to an emergency room, might
as well be at the Mexican border. It's illegals laying
around everywhere. It smells like ass, there's open sores on people,
(01:46):
nobody speaks English, and you can't see any obvious emergency
and it's going.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
To be hours and hours. You know that moment when you.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Decide to go to the emergency room. I'll walk you
through this in case you've forgotten. You're at your kid's
ball game. Your son's in the dugout playing grab ass,
because that's.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
What twelve year olds do.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
You're the visiting team, right handed batter. He's a little
late on the fastball, and he's a chunky kid. He
lays into the ball and he rips it a low
line drive right down there. And your kid is where
(02:43):
a coach has told him a hundred times not to be.
He's in that open gap and it hits him in
the head and there is a collective gasp, Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
The coach is eight is away.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Mom is in the third stands, third row of the stands,
talking about mommy stuff and won't stop.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
And somehow she gets to that kid first, because that
is her baby boy.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
She is down the stands, passed the dug out around
the corner, and there on her kid.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
I mean, you can't. That is natural, that that depth
of connection mama bear kid comes to he's already he's
already got a pretty nasty shiner.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
But it hit him on the temple. And you've heard
these stories about people thinking they're okay.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
I know guy was married to a woman. They were
at a party.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
She tripped and fell on a coffee table, hit her
head kind of woozy.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Let's go home. I just don't feel like being here anymore.
Headache went to bed and died, and so you think, well,
let's go to the emergency room, get it checked out.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
And then you know somebody, Dad says it's all right,
that's right, Well pull them out of the game, but
we don't need to go.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
To the mergency room.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
That moment when you go to the emergency room is
the moment you have elevated this thing to very likely
being more than a paper cut. This, this might be real.
We got to get the experts involved. This is literally
an emergency. So you start heading down. She screams up
(04:41):
to her girlfriend's up in the stands because their other
kid is out running around shagging fly balls for snow cones?
Can you bring timmy home? And can you? And then
the daughters at home, she's working on her homework and
they're going, girl, you go on, we got this because
(05:03):
mom's at that moment, that's that's mom's superpower.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Dads are not. Dads don't have that. Dad just focused
on the boy.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Mom still has a whole household run, so she's got
so her girl's superpower has kicked in she's got the
house being taken care of all that. She's running. They're
jumping in the suburban and off they go. She's worried,
the kids starting to fade a little.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
He's in and out.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
It really is an emergency at this point. This might
just be a bad concussion. It might be far worse.
Dad does not care how many valets are out front,
how many cripples, how many homeless people.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
He doesn't care. That's his boy in the back.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
He screeches up there, throws it in the gear. Sir,
I'm sorry, but you'll have to, and he says.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Run it in the river. I don't care.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
I'm going in to the mergency room, scooped up. His
boy goes into the emergency room. Now as he's heading
down there, he feels like he's in a foreign country.
And I'm gonna tell you this. You don't need to
be ashamed of that. They'll tell you do, and most
(06:20):
of you are.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
I mean, I don't sound like a racist, but I
was the only one in there that spoke English. You
don't need to be ashamed that that bothers you, not
one bit. No culture in the world.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Once people coming in from other countries speaking their language
and displacing them. And when it does happen, they complain
about it, and rightfully. So your sense of self is threatened,
your sense of place is threatened. So you get there
and you go rushing up to the front.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Hey, hey, hayzer, somebody can help me.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I don't know if y'all are poring concrete or what,
but I got to clear his face.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
My kid is about to die over there.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
And some smug woman who could not be bothered, says, okay,
you'll need to fill that out, fill it out. I
remember Scott James, one of our.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Big, big, big supporters. He and Carol James.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
He started into a heart attack and they were twenty
thirty minutes from the hospital. They got to the hospital
and they come in and he's having a heart attack.
He's a bear of a man, big burly guy, and
the nurses, i mean, the receptionist wants him to fill
out papers and finally he said, lady, I'm dying and
(07:49):
I'm going to die right here filling out these papers.
And Carol, his wife, she's a bull herself. They get
him in the back, they get him on the table,
clothes off to start treating him and he's out. Now
that not even begin to get into. Now, those are
(08:10):
decisions we've made. The decision is doesn't matter how illegal
you are, you show up in the hospital, we're gonna
pay your bills. But you know what else Obamacare, which
all the Democrats wanted and most of the Republicans did not.
Obamacare said that your health care package is compensation used
to you went to work and kept a job for
(08:31):
good health care. That's why you did it, because if
you lost your job, you lost your health care.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
And that's what people cared about.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
The Democrats said, we don't want jobs providing health care.
We want government providing healthcare. Because if people's loyalty is
to their job more than their government, we can't control them.
And that's what's happened. And people don't realize Democrats did
that to you.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Twenty eighteen, we're talking about paper ballots. But that actually
might be one of the smartest assistant the Michael Berry Show,
because Russia cannot hack a piece of paper.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
So here's what happened with Obamacare, and this was by design.
When you work for a company, we'll use round numbers.
When you work for a.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Company, Let's say you made fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
And for those of you in the business, I don't
know the actual numbers, so I understand I'm going to
get the number wrong, but just just follow along and
where I put in numbers, put an extra or y
because I don't have the experience in it that you do.
Because a lot of people do work in the finance
side of healthcare. Unfortunately, that's that's how you know how
(09:47):
inefficient this process is. Very little of healthcare in America
today is a doctor looking at a problem and working
to solve it. That's just that's a tiny little portion
(10:07):
of what we would generally call healthcare.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Most of the industry.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
And people that work in it are selling you on
you sending checks every month for something they hope you
won't use, and if they have the opportunity, they won't
pay for Then you setting up occasionally when after all
(10:34):
of this, because you planned ahead, you set up an
appointment to go to the doctor, and then you get
to the doctor and the people who are there who
do not want you there. By the time you get
in to see the doctor, for a few seconds, think
about all the people who have touched your account. Everyone's
(10:59):
getting paid. None of them is helping to heal you.
Now you get back there to the doctor, he's bedraggled,
he's wars slap out because the practice changed. He doesn't
own his practice anymore. This is why Mary Tally Boden
can walk in with a smile, because she owns her
(11:21):
practice independently. That poor guy you're seeing, he's most likely
from India, but he could be from another country. Very
little chance, especially if he's under forty, very little chance
that he's American born. And even then he's from Indian
heritage because his parents are Indian. Done wrong with that.
(11:45):
A lot of my doctors are Indians. A lot of
my family are Indian doctors.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
I'm good with it. But that is the.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Reality, and that's a whole separate conversation as to why
this happened. I'm not mad at Indians for owning all
the convenience stores or the motels. They didn't steal them.
They're not the cartels. Nobody else wanted that. It's a
horrible thing to do, it's an entrepreneurial thing to do.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
It's hard work. That's why the whole family lives there.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
But anyway, by the time you get to the doctor,
because remember I don't know if you remember a while
I as have you had something wrong with you. Let's
say you had a real bad cold, and like me,
about every two or three years, you mess around and
let that cold develop into bronchitis and then it knocks
(12:40):
you out for a while. So all you really need,
because you already know what drug you need, because you're
fifty three years old at this point, all you really
need is for him to write the prescription to give
you the drug. Because we've created a situation where you
can't go and get that drug yourself, and many of
(13:00):
you don't understand that in some nations you could, and
that as an adult you ought to be able to No, Michael,
somebody will abuse it. What like alcohol that's on every
street corner? What do you need a doctor to give
you alcohol? How about food, you fat ass? Do you
(13:22):
know how many people abuse food? Do you know us
a number one killer? Do you have any clue how
much abuse of food there is? Why don't we regulate
that more? We are headed there by the way we
are headed there because the nanny state.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
And ninnies believe.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
If something bad happens, if somebody makes bad decisions, then
what we need to do is the government needs to
make that illegal or give somebody power over you. As
an adult. You cannot make a decision what you eat
(14:05):
and when you eat.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Because look at you, you're so fat.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Why would you want to take away my ability to
decide when I eat and what I eat well, because
you're fat and you're costing a lot more, the study says,
and they'll make.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
This available to you and people will quote it.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Study says that a fat person costs four times as
much as a skinny person for healthcare. And I have
to pay for your health care, and I don't think
it's right because you eat too much, and I think
that the government ought to ration your food. We're headed there.
(14:47):
I hope you understand that this is not a scare
at tactic. That is where we are headed. So now
you've got a situation where by the time you get
to the doctor to get what you need, all these
other people have needed to be paid. The doctor is
only a tiny portion. And by the way, nine times
(15:09):
out of ten, especially if it's a general practitioner, you
didn't actually need to see the doctor. You could have
seen a nurse practitioner. I'm not for socialized medicine. But
there are very very simple things you could do, very
simple things you could do to reduce the cost of
(15:31):
health care.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
In this country.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
In one of them is stop clogging everything up with
a doctor. We have this doctor worship in this country
that is so silly. There are many, many, many Americans
who are capable of assisting in your healing and wellness
who do not have an MD. What we ought to
(15:55):
do is save doctors for issues where a doctor doctor's
experience and care is necessary, and stop having doctors be
the front line of every single issue and requiring you
to need to see the doctor for everything. In most cases,
a nurse practitioner can do just as well, and truthfully,
(16:17):
most nurse practitioners have more experience with your particular issue
than the doctor does because they're doing all the work.
This is also true, by the way, with dental hygienis.
I don't think there's a gradation in dental hygienius. I
don't think you go from you know, dental hygieneus to
(16:39):
master plumber dental hygienis to you know, talk you know.
I don't think you start as journey you ought to,
because I don't know if you've noticed when the dentist comes.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Swaggering in and oh, Dennis is here? Why else, how
are you doing that? Let me take a look at this, Susie.
What do we have?
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Well, on the A three he hadn't rushed it eight years,
and on the C four he's got a cat.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
Yep ship. You're right, Susie, you're cute.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Swat on the ass, Sign him up, pay the bill,
we'll see you back next time.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Susie's gonna take care of you and we'll give you
a toothbrush to boot. Who do you think delivered all
the care?
Speaker 2 (17:18):
The hygienist and in the process she knows as much
as he does. Yeah, well that's true in medicine too.
All right, So back to the point. Here's how it
got all Caddi whompers.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Democrats didn't want you to have a health care plan
that your company paid for, company was invested in because
they wanted you healthy, so they took care of you
and your dependence. Obamacare's gold was to break that relationship,
and they did. And how'd they do it. They convinced
the idiots who needed healthcare most that they were going
(17:53):
to get free healthcare. Michael. It was their undoing look,
what's happening.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Just a reminder that obesity kills way more people than
gun violence.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
But there's no march to end obesity, which ironically would
help end it.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
I read that from a woman named Nicole Arbor online.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
And I had to write that down because I thought
I have got to share that.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
So the great disconnect, and then we're going to talk
about how we solve this problem seven one three nine
nine nine one thousand. The great disconnect is any American
that works for a company, the corporation that's been working
(18:52):
for more than fifteen years, knows that the quality of
their health care has gone down, the cost of their
health care has gone up. They know this, but they
don't realize that that was by design and the result
(19:14):
of a Democrat program. If they did, Democrats would never
win another election. How do you keep people from knowing
that most Americans have a complete disconnect with the life
they are living and who they vote for. Who they
(19:34):
vote for has everything to do with who's promising ice cream?
Speaker 1 (19:39):
What was July's promise to the kids? Better bathrooms and
more field trips.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Yeah, So, if you're a senior in high school and
you're wanting a scholarship to college, or scholarship to vocational
school or whatever else, and you got to make the
highest GPA possible to be able to do that, and
(20:03):
you're thinking about, yeah, but really what I want is
more ice cream or field trips or whatever else. You're
separating why you're in high school and what matters. So
Michael T is a freshman at UT and he was
never going to join a fraternity. I wasn't in a fraternity.
In fact, when I ran for student body president and on,
(20:27):
it was against the strongest candidate. Was always the IFC,
the Innfraternity Council, and the frats got very involved because
being student by president gave you a lot of authority
over things, much of which affected them. And so I
(20:47):
didn't have anything against fraternities, but I wasn't in one.
And a lot of my friends, most of the people
I went to high school with, went to college. They
worked while they were going to college. They got out
that went to work. But as I got through law school,
all my friends were lawyers. And then in time it
(21:11):
became the case that I went from all my wife
being a lawyer, to all of our friends were lawyers,
to none of our friends were lawyers, and I began
associating with people more on the basis I used to
judge people for this, and if you're young, don't do it.
You'd ask people, how do you know those three guys
(21:32):
our kids are friends?
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Wait a minute.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Your friendships are based on the fact that y'all kids
are friends, and then you become friends. And that's say, Michael,
you don't understand when your kids are friends, you end
up in the same places and you're either going to
really like those people or it's going to be miserable. Well,
(21:58):
as luck would have it, Michael t fell in with
a good group of people, young folks, from early on,
and I inherited from that a really good group of
guys that I'll be friends with for the rest of
my life that I never would have known otherwise. And
not one of them a lawyer, not one of them
a lawyer, and every one of them a frat boy.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
And did I look down on frat boys? Yeah? Probably.
I viewed it as kind of rent a friend, you know,
go to college. Do what I did.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
Meet people develop relationships on the merit of who they are. Well,
I also realized I'm kind of a weirdo. I'm overly social,
or at least was for a long time, and very ambitious,
and not everybody's doing that, and it's somewhat natural to
develop these friendships through the fraternity. I always thought the
(22:56):
hazing was stupid, still do, and I viewed it as
rent a rand and you know, go find your own.
But I also now realize, particularly with with politics the
way they are today, I realized that for many people
that creates a social structure that can really be a
(23:16):
bedrock to get you through. So Michael wasn't going to
join it fraternity. My wife obviously, being from India, she
was not in a sorority.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
I went in.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Fraternity, never cared for it, but I had all these friends.
It turned out to be great guys, and they all
they help each other out. They're there for each other,
and they help Elsa out. You know, Michael had to
go to the hospital with rabdo, which is this extreme
dehydration at two days one year, and all the other
families are bringing food and picking up my other kid,
(23:44):
and I thought, hey, you know, these these people are
built on a on a social structure. There are people
who build social structures, and there are loaners, and you
start to realize that in life, there's some woman.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
In your kid's friend group. That woman is the woman.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Who's going to make sure that everything that needs to
get done, the teacher gets a gift, and this and this,
and that woman's going to be the one that builds
the social structure around her. She makes everyone else her assistant.
Doesn't mean she's not annoying, but she got to have
her Well, long story short, this group comes to Michael
and they want him to join, and he was like,
(24:26):
I'm not really a return to guy.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
I got to focus on school.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
And they said, well, we're primarily academic, but we do
have a social element. We do not haze, we do
have service. So this thing keeps proceeding in lo and behold,
he pledges. He's in the middle of it now and
he loves it. And they're out on the weekends and
they're planting gardens and they're doing this, and they're doing this,
(24:50):
and he's learning how to do this, and he's going
to a real estate seminar and he's going to a
finance seminar.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Which he was excited about that they put you through.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
And the whole thing turned out to be fantastic And
I never would have guessed it. But all that by
way of saying, those are the side elements too. You've
got to get your grades. You've got to You cannot
go and fail out, which more kids do than you realize.
(25:20):
You've got to focus on the grades. You've got to
focus on why you're there. We have allowed as voters,
our neighbors to worry about what fraternity they're going to join,
what social.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Organizations, whether they're getting tickets to football game, but they're
not taking care of the grades. An assault weapons ban,
but it's only later in your political career did you
change your position?
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Why Michael Barrys have become friends with school shooters.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
But you don't to call me? Do I get to
live an amazing life because.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
You so? Tomorrow I will get to ride with Ray
Hunt of the Houston Police Officers Union and deliver him
and deliver to Scott Durfey a twenty five thousand dollars.
Check Durfey is the officer you will remember who in
(26:22):
Spring Branch. I don't know what's it been among three
weeks or so, time flies this This election period has
been the most intense for me since twenty sixteen, and anyway,
(26:42):
so The guys circle the block.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
A few times. They walk up to the door. They
look in.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
One guy looks in leaves, looks in leaves. They come
back the third time. He's got a red penny. We
called him a penny.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Growing up. You were going like a vest If you
heard the word penny, yeah, some people call up. Maybe
I got that from my wife. I don't I don't
know where penny comes from.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
I don't know if that's really old or if it's
English England, you know, British English. I don't know, but
I think in the old days it was called a penny.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
But whatever.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
So he's wearing kind of a reddish penny. It wasn't
a door dash penny. Not that you couldn't get one.
If you, you know, you could get one, probably pretty easily.
And he knocks on the door. Young lady twenty five
years old. She's got a three year old and a
one year old. She's at her parents' house. Her parents
are gone.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
I guess.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
I don't know if she lives there with her parents
or she just during the day comes to her parents'
house for whatever reason.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
That's not uncommon. He says, uh, I got.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
A delivery and she says, no, you got the wrong house,
and he's you know, can you help me or whatever
in he's.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Broken English, and she opens the door.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
You build walls and you keep your doors locked because
they're bad people out there that want what you have.
He storms through the door. His buddy comes running behind him.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
They tie her up.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Her one year old and three year old are screaming.
What kind of monsters are these? They're threatening to kill
her the whole time because they want inside the safe.
There isn't a safe at the house. During the middle
of this, one of the neighbors, thank goodness, is what
was the woman's name in Bewitched? She would look around
at everything. You remember, you gotta have one of those,
(28:33):
you know who's good for this Gabors.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Gabors are very very good.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
Y'all can hate on the gaze all you want, but
I'm gonna taste what Gladys was. Gladys to Mom, it
sounds like nurse Ratchet, but it's not Nurse Ratchet, Miss Cratchett.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Misscratchett was a Miss Cratchett Kravitz.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
My brother would have nailed it. He would have just
told me her name her. Anyway, we're losing all our
good institutional knowledge on the show.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Here between my mom and my brother being gone, that's
ninety percent of that my contribution to the show right there. Anyway, So.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
One of the neighbors, probably a gaber, calls the police.
Thank god they did. The police come and storm through
the front door and off to save this woman and
her two little children. Lord knows what would have happened.
It's conceivable these guys would have killed her once they
(29:34):
were done, because she could ide them and maybe her
kids would watch her there dad, or they go ahead
and kill the kids too, just for good measure.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Because these are monsters. That's what we're letting into our country. Monsters.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Over four hundred thousand on Joe Biden and Kamala Harris's Watch,
over four hundred thousand convicted felons, over thirteen thousand convicted murderers.
One murderer can wreck a neighborhood, wreck an entire community,
thirteen thousand of them. Anyway, Durfy goes blazing in because
(30:15):
that's what these guys do. When he starts through the house,
one of those illegals unloads on.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Him, hits him.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
The other officers drag him out, chase the guys down.
They've got them now.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
So one of Rodney Ellis's judges is probably put him
back out on the street. But here we are.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
So we had the homeowner on the show within two
hours of all this happening. Not to brag ramon because
we don't break news.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Remember we don't break news.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
And I said, I called ray Hunt and I said, hey,
like to do a little something for him.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
And I don't remember what we said we'd do. I
know what we did.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
I said, I'll put in twenty five hundred. Y'all give
me seventy five hundred. We'll do it through assist the officer.
We'll raise ten thousand. We're going to deliver him to
his house in Waller tomorrow. Twenty five thousand. That's pretty
darn good. So for every single one of you, and
you know who you are who contributed to that, thank
you very much. And these people room they give with
(31:23):
no intention of being honored, no intention of anything else.
By the way, I think we've got confirmation. I got
to get ray Hunt to help me out. But Sergeant Vayer,
who y'all raised one hundred thousand dollars for who was shot,
he has fourteen bullet holes in his body, but he
was shot seven times. Fortunately all seven exited and he's
(31:46):
going to make it. But I've asked him to be
there so I can bring him up on stage because
half the people in the gathering Saturday night will have
been people who contributed to his cause. So for those
of you looking forward to meeting him, that will be
Saturday night.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Send me an email. Put twenty nine to twenty in
the subject line.
Speaker 2 (32:05):
In twenty nine to twenty in the main our system
flags you if you're resending a request or if you're
checking in, Please don't do that. You get kicked out
and then you cause yourself all sorts of problems. It's
going to be a good time. Ted Cruz will be there,
Dan Pastorini is going to be there. Marcus Atrel is invited.
I don't know if Mark's going to be able to
make it yet. Jesse Kelly will be there.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
Ramone will be there. Maybe he's got a wedding he's
supposed to be at.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Ramone is still young enough to yes, friends, Oh no,
it's your friend's daughter. You're old enough now that you're
past the our peer group. Send me an email, put
twenty nine to twenty in the subject and in the body.
Do enjoy hearing from you and our first nationally syndicated
broadcast this evening.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
Today is the Big day
It's that time time time, time, Luck and load. The
Michael Verie Show is on the air. Friends in talking.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
One of them works at a big company. I was
talking about healthcare plan. His wife was saying, now it's
very stressful because they used to have Blue Cross, Blue Shield,
and now they're going to a lesser provider, a lesser plan.
(01:01):
And without regard to this conversation, because these are very
informed folks, but I've had this conversation with people, and
one of the reasons people don't vote Republican instead a
Democrat is because they don't vote on the basis of
things that actually matter to their lives.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
I'll give you an example.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
People have noticed that the quality of healthcare has gone
down dramatically. If you go to an emergency room, might
as well be at the Mexican border. It's illegals laying
around everywhere. It smells like ass, there's open sores on people,
(01:46):
nobody speaks English, and you can't see any obvious emergency
and it's going.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
To be hours and hours. You know that moment when you.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Decide to go to the emergency room. I'll walk you
through this in case you've forgotten. You're at your kid's
ball game. Your son's in the dugout playing grab ass,
because that's.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
What twelve year olds do.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
You're the visiting team, right handed batter. He's a little
late on the fastball, and he's a chunky kid. He
lays into the ball and he rips it a low
line drive right down there. And your kid is where
(02:43):
a coach has told him a hundred times not to be.
He's in that open gap and it hits him in
the head and there is a collective gasp, Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
The coach is eight is away.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Mom is in the third stands, third row of the stands,
talking about mommy stuff and won't stop.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
And somehow she gets to that kid first, because that
is her baby boy.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
She is down the stands, passed the dug out around
the corner, and there on her kid.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
I mean, you can't. That is natural, that that depth
of connection mama bear kid comes to he's already he's
already got a pretty nasty shiner.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
But it hit him on the temple. And you've heard
these stories about people thinking they're okay.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
I know guy was married to a woman. They were
at a party.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
She tripped and fell on a coffee table, hit her
head kind of woozy.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Let's go home. I just don't feel like being here anymore.
Headache went to bed and died, and so you think, well,
let's go to the emergency room, get it checked out.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
And then you know somebody, Dad says it's all right,
that's right, Well pull them out of the game, but
we don't need to go.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
To the mergency room.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
That moment when you go to the emergency room is
the moment you have elevated this thing to very likely
being more than a paper cut. This, this might be real.
We got to get the experts involved. This is literally
an emergency. So you start heading down. She screams up
(04:41):
to her girlfriend's up in the stands because their other
kid is out running around shagging fly balls for snow cones?
Can you bring timmy home? And can you? And then
the daughters at home, she's working on her homework and
they're going, girl, you go on, we got this because
(05:03):
mom's at that moment, that's that's mom's superpower.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Dads are not. Dads don't have that. Dad just focused
on the boy.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Mom still has a whole household run, so she's got
so her girl's superpower has kicked in she's got the
house being taken care of all that. She's running. They're
jumping in the suburban and off they go. She's worried,
the kids starting to fade a little.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
He's in and out.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
It really is an emergency at this point. This might
just be a bad concussion. It might be far worse.
Dad does not care how many valets are out front,
how many cripples, how many homeless people.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
He doesn't care. That's his boy in the back.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
He screeches up there, throws it in the gear. Sir,
I'm sorry, but you'll have to, and he says.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Run it in the river. I don't care.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
I'm going in to the mergency room, scooped up. His
boy goes into the emergency room. Now as he's heading
down there, he feels like he's in a foreign country.
And I'm gonna tell you this. You don't need to
be ashamed of that. They'll tell you do, and most
(06:20):
of you are.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
I mean, I don't sound like a racist, but I
was the only one in there that spoke English. You
don't need to be ashamed that that bothers you, not
one bit. No culture in the world.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Once people coming in from other countries speaking their language
and displacing them. And when it does happen, they complain
about it, and rightfully. So your sense of self is threatened,
your sense of place is threatened. So you get there
and you go rushing up to the front.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Hey, hey, hayzer, somebody can help me.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I don't know if y'all are poring concrete or what,
but I got to clear his face.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
My kid is about to die over there.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
And some smug woman who could not be bothered, says, okay,
you'll need to fill that out, fill it out. I
remember Scott James, one of our.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Big, big, big supporters. He and Carol James.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
He started into a heart attack and they were twenty
thirty minutes from the hospital. They got to the hospital
and they come in and he's having a heart attack.
He's a bear of a man, big burly guy, and
the nurses, i mean, the receptionist wants him to fill
out papers and finally he said, lady, I'm dying and
(07:49):
I'm going to die right here filling out these papers.
And Carol, his wife, she's a bull herself. They get
him in the back, they get him on the table,
clothes off to start treating him and he's out. Now
that not even begin to get into. Now, those are
(08:10):
decisions we've made. The decision is doesn't matter how illegal
you are, you show up in the hospital, we're gonna
pay your bills. But you know what else Obamacare, which
all the Democrats wanted and most of the Republicans did not.
Obamacare said that your health care package is compensation used
to you went to work and kept a job for
(08:31):
good health care. That's why you did it, because if
you lost your job, you lost your health care.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
And that's what people cared about.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
The Democrats said, we don't want jobs providing health care.
We want government providing healthcare. Because if people's loyalty is
to their job more than their government, we can't control them.
And that's what's happened. And people don't realize Democrats did
that to you.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Twenty eighteen, we're talking about paper ballots. But that actually
might be one of the smartest assistant the Michael Berry Show,
because Russia cannot hack a piece of paper.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
So here's what happened with Obamacare, and this was by design.
When you work for a company, we'll use round numbers.
When you work for a.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Company, Let's say you made fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
And for those of you in the business, I don't
know the actual numbers, so I understand I'm going to
get the number wrong, but just just follow along and
where I put in numbers, put an extra or y
because I don't have the experience in it that you do.
Because a lot of people do work in the finance
side of healthcare. Unfortunately, that's that's how you know how
(09:47):
inefficient this process is. Very little of healthcare in America
today is a doctor looking at a problem and working
to solve it. That's just that's a tiny little portion
(10:07):
of what we would generally call healthcare.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Most of the industry.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
And people that work in it are selling you on
you sending checks every month for something they hope you
won't use, and if they have the opportunity, they won't
pay for Then you setting up occasionally when after all
(10:34):
of this, because you planned ahead, you set up an
appointment to go to the doctor, and then you get
to the doctor and the people who are there who
do not want you there. By the time you get
in to see the doctor, for a few seconds, think
about all the people who have touched your account. Everyone's
(10:59):
getting paid. None of them is helping to heal you.
Now you get back there to the doctor, he's bedraggled,
he's wars slap out because the practice changed. He doesn't
own his practice anymore. This is why Mary Tally Boden
can walk in with a smile, because she owns her
(11:21):
practice independently. That poor guy you're seeing, he's most likely
from India, but he could be from another country. Very
little chance, especially if he's under forty, very little chance
that he's American born. And even then he's from Indian
heritage because his parents are Indian. Done wrong with that.
(11:45):
A lot of my doctors are Indians. A lot of
my family are Indian doctors.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
I'm good with it. But that is the.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Reality, and that's a whole separate conversation as to why
this happened. I'm not mad at Indians for owning all
the convenience stores or the motels. They didn't steal them.
They're not the cartels. Nobody else wanted that. It's a
horrible thing to do, it's an entrepreneurial thing to do.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
It's hard work. That's why the whole family lives there.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
But anyway, by the time you get to the doctor,
because remember I don't know if you remember a while
I as have you had something wrong with you. Let's
say you had a real bad cold, and like me,
about every two or three years, you mess around and
let that cold develop into bronchitis and then it knocks
(12:40):
you out for a while. So all you really need,
because you already know what drug you need, because you're
fifty three years old at this point, all you really
need is for him to write the prescription to give
you the drug. Because we've created a situation where you
can't go and get that drug yourself, and many of
(13:00):
you don't understand that in some nations you could, and
that as an adult you ought to be able to No, Michael,
somebody will abuse it. What like alcohol that's on every
street corner? What do you need a doctor to give
you alcohol? How about food, you fat ass? Do you
(13:22):
know how many people abuse food? Do you know us
a number one killer? Do you have any clue how
much abuse of food there is? Why don't we regulate
that more? We are headed there by the way we
are headed there because the nanny state.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
And ninnies believe.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
If something bad happens, if somebody makes bad decisions, then
what we need to do is the government needs to
make that illegal or give somebody power over you. As
an adult. You cannot make a decision what you eat
(14:05):
and when you eat.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Because look at you, you're so fat.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Why would you want to take away my ability to
decide when I eat and what I eat well, because
you're fat and you're costing a lot more, the study says,
and they'll make.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
This available to you and people will quote it.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Study says that a fat person costs four times as
much as a skinny person for healthcare. And I have
to pay for your health care, and I don't think
it's right because you eat too much, and I think
that the government ought to ration your food. We're headed there.
(14:47):
I hope you understand that this is not a scare
at tactic. That is where we are headed. So now
you've got a situation where by the time you get
to the doctor to get what you need, all these
other people have needed to be paid. The doctor is
only a tiny portion. And by the way, nine times
(15:09):
out of ten, especially if it's a general practitioner, you
didn't actually need to see the doctor. You could have
seen a nurse practitioner. I'm not for socialized medicine. But
there are very very simple things you could do, very
simple things you could do to reduce the cost of
(15:31):
health care.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
In this country.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
In one of them is stop clogging everything up with
a doctor. We have this doctor worship in this country
that is so silly. There are many, many, many Americans
who are capable of assisting in your healing and wellness
who do not have an MD. What we ought to
(15:55):
do is save doctors for issues where a doctor doctor's
experience and care is necessary, and stop having doctors be
the front line of every single issue and requiring you
to need to see the doctor for everything. In most cases,
a nurse practitioner can do just as well, and truthfully,
(16:17):
most nurse practitioners have more experience with your particular issue
than the doctor does because they're doing all the work.
This is also true, by the way, with dental hygienis.
I don't think there's a gradation in dental hygienius. I
don't think you go from you know, dental hygieneus to
(16:39):
master plumber dental hygienis to you know, talk you know.
I don't think you start as journey you ought to,
because I don't know if you've noticed when the dentist comes.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Swaggering in and oh, Dennis is here? Why else, how
are you doing that? Let me take a look at this, Susie.
What do we have?
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Well, on the A three he hadn't rushed it eight years,
and on the C four he's got a cat.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
Yep ship. You're right, Susie, you're cute.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Swat on the ass, Sign him up, pay the bill,
we'll see you back next time.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Susie's gonna take care of you and we'll give you
a toothbrush to boot. Who do you think delivered all
the care?
Speaker 2 (17:18):
The hygienist and in the process she knows as much
as he does. Yeah, well that's true in medicine too.
All right, So back to the point. Here's how it
got all Caddi whompers.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Democrats didn't want you to have a health care plan
that your company paid for, company was invested in because
they wanted you healthy, so they took care of you
and your dependence. Obamacare's gold was to break that relationship,
and they did. And how'd they do it. They convinced
the idiots who needed healthcare most that they were going
(17:53):
to get free healthcare. Michael. It was their undoing look,
what's happening.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Just a reminder that obesity kills way more people than
gun violence.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
But there's no march to end obesity, which ironically would
help end it.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
I read that from a woman named Nicole Arbor online.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
And I had to write that down because I thought
I have got to share that.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
So the great disconnect, and then we're going to talk
about how we solve this problem seven one three nine
nine nine one thousand. The great disconnect is any American
that works for a company, the corporation that's been working
(18:52):
for more than fifteen years, knows that the quality of
their health care has gone down, the cost of their
health care has gone up. They know this, but they
don't realize that that was by design and the result
(19:14):
of a Democrat program. If they did, Democrats would never
win another election. How do you keep people from knowing
that most Americans have a complete disconnect with the life
they are living and who they vote for. Who they
(19:34):
vote for has everything to do with who's promising ice cream?
Speaker 1 (19:39):
What was July's promise to the kids? Better bathrooms and
more field trips.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Yeah, So, if you're a senior in high school and
you're wanting a scholarship to college, or scholarship to vocational
school or whatever else, and you got to make the
highest GPA possible to be able to do that, and
(20:03):
you're thinking about, yeah, but really what I want is
more ice cream or field trips or whatever else. You're
separating why you're in high school and what matters. So
Michael T is a freshman at UT and he was
never going to join a fraternity. I wasn't in a fraternity.
In fact, when I ran for student body president and on,
(20:27):
it was against the strongest candidate. Was always the IFC,
the Innfraternity Council, and the frats got very involved because
being student by president gave you a lot of authority
over things, much of which affected them. And so I
(20:47):
didn't have anything against fraternities, but I wasn't in one.
And a lot of my friends, most of the people
I went to high school with, went to college. They
worked while they were going to college. They got out
that went to work. But as I got through law school,
all my friends were lawyers. And then in time it
(21:11):
became the case that I went from all my wife
being a lawyer, to all of our friends were lawyers,
to none of our friends were lawyers, and I began
associating with people more on the basis I used to
judge people for this, and if you're young, don't do it.
You'd ask people, how do you know those three guys
(21:32):
our kids are friends?
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Wait a minute.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Your friendships are based on the fact that y'all kids
are friends, and then you become friends. And that's say, Michael,
you don't understand when your kids are friends, you end
up in the same places and you're either going to
really like those people or it's going to be miserable. Well,
(21:58):
as luck would have it, Michael t fell in with
a good group of people, young folks, from early on,
and I inherited from that a really good group of
guys that I'll be friends with for the rest of
my life that I never would have known otherwise. And
not one of them a lawyer, not one of them
a lawyer, and every one of them a frat boy.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
And did I look down on frat boys? Yeah? Probably.
I viewed it as kind of rent a friend, you know,
go to college. Do what I did.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
Meet people develop relationships on the merit of who they are. Well,
I also realized I'm kind of a weirdo. I'm overly social,
or at least was for a long time, and very ambitious,
and not everybody's doing that, and it's somewhat natural to
develop these friendships through the fraternity. I always thought the
(22:56):
hazing was stupid, still do, and I viewed it as
rent a rand and you know, go find your own.
But I also now realize, particularly with with politics the
way they are today, I realized that for many people
that creates a social structure that can really be a
(23:16):
bedrock to get you through. So Michael wasn't going to
join it fraternity. My wife obviously, being from India, she
was not in a sorority.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
I went in.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Fraternity, never cared for it, but I had all these friends.
It turned out to be great guys, and they all
they help each other out. They're there for each other,
and they help Elsa out. You know, Michael had to
go to the hospital with rabdo, which is this extreme
dehydration at two days one year, and all the other
families are bringing food and picking up my other kid,
(23:44):
and I thought, hey, you know, these these people are
built on a on a social structure. There are people
who build social structures, and there are loaners, and you
start to realize that in life, there's some woman.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
In your kid's friend group. That woman is the woman.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Who's going to make sure that everything that needs to
get done, the teacher gets a gift, and this and this,
and that woman's going to be the one that builds
the social structure around her. She makes everyone else her assistant.
Doesn't mean she's not annoying, but she got to have
her Well, long story short, this group comes to Michael
and they want him to join, and he was like,
(24:26):
I'm not really a return to guy.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
I got to focus on school.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
And they said, well, we're primarily academic, but we do
have a social element. We do not haze, we do
have service. So this thing keeps proceeding in lo and behold,
he pledges. He's in the middle of it now and
he loves it. And they're out on the weekends and
they're planting gardens and they're doing this, and they're doing this,
(24:50):
and he's learning how to do this, and he's going
to a real estate seminar and he's going to a
finance seminar.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Which he was excited about that they put you through.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
And the whole thing turned out to be fantastic And
I never would have guessed it. But all that by
way of saying, those are the side elements too. You've
got to get your grades. You've got to You cannot
go and fail out, which more kids do than you realize.
(25:20):
You've got to focus on the grades. You've got to
focus on why you're there. We have allowed as voters,
our neighbors to worry about what fraternity they're going to join,
what social.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Organizations, whether they're getting tickets to football game, but they're
not taking care of the grades. An assault weapons ban,
but it's only later in your political career did you
change your position?
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Why Michael Barrys have become friends with school shooters.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
But you don't to call me? Do I get to
live an amazing life because.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
You so? Tomorrow I will get to ride with Ray
Hunt of the Houston Police Officers Union and deliver him
and deliver to Scott Durfey a twenty five thousand dollars.
Check Durfey is the officer you will remember who in
(26:22):
Spring Branch. I don't know what's it been among three
weeks or so, time flies this This election period has
been the most intense for me since twenty sixteen, and anyway,
(26:42):
so The guys circle the block.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
A few times. They walk up to the door. They
look in.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
One guy looks in leaves, looks in leaves. They come
back the third time. He's got a red penny. We
called him a penny.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Growing up. You were going like a vest If you
heard the word penny, yeah, some people call up. Maybe
I got that from my wife. I don't I don't
know where penny comes from.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
I don't know if that's really old or if it's
English England, you know, British English. I don't know, but
I think in the old days it was called a penny.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
But whatever.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
So he's wearing kind of a reddish penny. It wasn't
a door dash penny. Not that you couldn't get one.
If you, you know, you could get one, probably pretty easily.
And he knocks on the door. Young lady twenty five
years old. She's got a three year old and a
one year old. She's at her parents' house. Her parents
are gone.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
I guess.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
I don't know if she lives there with her parents
or she just during the day comes to her parents'
house for whatever reason.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
That's not uncommon. He says, uh, I got.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
A delivery and she says, no, you got the wrong house,
and he's you know, can you help me or whatever
in he's.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Broken English, and she opens the door.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
You build walls and you keep your doors locked because
they're bad people out there that want what you have.
He storms through the door. His buddy comes running behind him.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
They tie her up.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Her one year old and three year old are screaming.
What kind of monsters are these? They're threatening to kill
her the whole time because they want inside the safe.
There isn't a safe at the house. During the middle
of this, one of the neighbors, thank goodness, is what
was the woman's name in Bewitched? She would look around
at everything. You remember, you gotta have one of those,
(28:33):
you know who's good for this Gabors.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Gabors are very very good.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
Y'all can hate on the gaze all you want, but
I'm gonna taste what Gladys was. Gladys to Mom, it
sounds like nurse Ratchet, but it's not Nurse Ratchet, Miss Cratchett.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Misscratchett was a Miss Cratchett Kravitz.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
My brother would have nailed it. He would have just
told me her name her. Anyway, we're losing all our
good institutional knowledge on the show.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Here between my mom and my brother being gone, that's
ninety percent of that my contribution to the show right there. Anyway, So.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
One of the neighbors, probably a gaber, calls the police.
Thank god they did. The police come and storm through
the front door and off to save this woman and
her two little children. Lord knows what would have happened.
It's conceivable these guys would have killed her once they
(29:34):
were done, because she could ide them and maybe her
kids would watch her there dad, or they go ahead
and kill the kids too, just for good measure.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Because these are monsters. That's what we're letting into our country. Monsters.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Over four hundred thousand on Joe Biden and Kamala Harris's Watch,
over four hundred thousand convicted felons, over thirteen thousand convicted murderers.
One murderer can wreck a neighborhood, wreck an entire community,
thirteen thousand of them. Anyway, Durfy goes blazing in because
(30:15):
that's what these guys do. When he starts through the house,
one of those illegals unloads on.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Him, hits him.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
The other officers drag him out, chase the guys down.
They've got them now.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
So one of Rodney Ellis's judges is probably put him
back out on the street. But here we are.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
So we had the homeowner on the show within two
hours of all this happening. Not to brag ramon because
we don't break news.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Remember we don't break news.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
And I said, I called ray Hunt and I said, hey,
like to do a little something for him.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
And I don't remember what we said we'd do. I
know what we did.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
I said, I'll put in twenty five hundred. Y'all give
me seventy five hundred. We'll do it through assist the officer.
We'll raise ten thousand. We're going to deliver him to
his house in Waller tomorrow. Twenty five thousand. That's pretty
darn good. So for every single one of you, and
you know who you are who contributed to that, thank
you very much. And these people room they give with
(31:23):
no intention of being honored, no intention of anything else.
By the way, I think we've got confirmation. I got
to get ray Hunt to help me out. But Sergeant Vayer,
who y'all raised one hundred thousand dollars for who was shot,
he has fourteen bullet holes in his body, but he
was shot seven times. Fortunately all seven exited and he's
(31:46):
going to make it. But I've asked him to be
there so I can bring him up on stage because
half the people in the gathering Saturday night will have
been people who contributed to his cause. So for those
of you looking forward to meeting him, that will be
Saturday night.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Send me an email. Put twenty nine to twenty in
the subject line.
Speaker 2 (32:05):
In twenty nine to twenty in the main our system
flags you if you're resending a request or if you're
checking in, Please don't do that. You get kicked out
and then you cause yourself all sorts of problems. It's
going to be a good time. Ted Cruz will be there,
Dan Pastorini is going to be there. Marcus Atrel is invited.
I don't know if Mark's going to be able to
make it yet. Jesse Kelly will be there.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
Ramone will be there. Maybe he's got a wedding he's
supposed to be at.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Ramone is still young enough to yes, friends, Oh no,
it's your friend's daughter. You're old enough now that you're
past the our peer group. Send me an email, put
twenty nine to twenty in the subject and in the body.
Do enjoy hearing from you and our first nationally syndicated
broadcast this evening.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
