Speaker 1 (00:10):
Independent thoughts, Independent life. This is Chad.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Benson toilet paper disaster averted for all of you idiots
who bought all the toilet paper and everything because.

Speaker 3 (00:22):
You thought, oh my god, everything's shutting down. The porch
aren't going to work. Good news, Good news, you've got
extra toilet paper to last you through the new year.

Speaker 4 (00:32):
Sports along the East and Gulf Coast are up and
running after they shut down for three days during that
massive dock worker strike. The union and the shipping Industry
group reaching a tentative agreement to suspend the strike until
January fifteenth. Sources familiar with the negotiations tell us that
wages will go up by sixty two percent over the

(00:52):
new six year contract, not as much as the union wanted,
but a lot more than the shipping companies had originally offered.

Speaker 3 (01:00):
So right, that's a win. It's a win. It's a win,
I say a whim. Did they get everything they wanted?

Speaker 4 (01:08):
A top rate for an hourly worker under the old
contract was thirty nine dollars an hour. This will bring
that to sixty three dollars an hour. So that is
a big difference when you think about just what that
salary looks like.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
That is, But what was the thing they were most
concerned with. Remember, not gonna let any freaking robots take
odd jobs. It was automation. And guess what, they didn't
get the answer they wanted. They got more money, but
they didn't get the answer they wanted.

Speaker 5 (01:40):
It seems like the port operators up to their offer
to sixty two percent raises over six.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
Weeks, and they've punted on the most difficult issue to resolve.
That's the question of automation.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
And that's their big issue, automation. So they got a raise.
It's look, everybody's like, oh, it's done. It's six years.
It's not six years yet. This is going to be temporary.
So all of the things are in place, right, So
they got everything in place. We've got it. You're going
to start getting that pay right now. But the rest
of the stuff. You know, if January fifteenth comes and

(02:14):
they're like, eh, you know what, we got through the
holidays and we do all you guys, we still have
this automation issue. We haven't really fully figured this thing out,
oh my lord, but we won't care at that point
in time because the holidays will have been passed. Things
will be a little bit slower, just the way the
politicians like it.

Speaker 5 (02:33):
It took some pressure from the politicians. I mean, I
think the president and the vice president were not at
all happy about the prospect of the revival of inflation.

Speaker 3 (02:44):
Nobody's excited about that. Nobody was.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
And the thought of us not having enough toilet paper, Chad,
how much crapping are we doing?

Speaker 3 (02:55):
You know?

Speaker 2 (02:55):
We produce that here right like that, we don't produce it,
put it on a boat, take it out to the
middle of the ocean, and then bring it back the report.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
I want you guys to understand that. But what about
the pandemic.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
We shut everything down, We told the people making the
toilet paper, and on top of that, it kind of
came out of nowhere. See, they planned for these things,
so it's not that there was a shortage. It's just
during the pandemic, nobody had planned that we were gonna
poop so much or use so much hand sanitizer. I
was talking to people yesterday. They're like, yeah, I went

(03:31):
into the store, there was nothing there. I'm like, why, Oh,
because people are idiots? Yeah, three two, three, five, three,
twenty four, twenty three. Atch, you had Benson show to
your Twitter, your Instagram all of the other stuff. Let's
move to the other big story. There's plenty of them
out there today. No, no, we're no, We're gonna get.

(03:53):
We're gonna get. We're going to get to the Garth
Brooks thing here in a little bit. But a hurricane Helen.
The nightmar is continuing. People are pissed, angry, feel abandoned.
Still people missing, and the death toll is continuing to rise.

Speaker 6 (04:09):
Kleene's already staggering depth toll climbing once again, at least
two hundred and fifteen people killed since the storm made
landfall last Thursday. In Florida, President Biden serving the damage there,
getting an.

Speaker 7 (04:21):
Aerial tour of the destruction left behind.

Speaker 6 (04:24):
In North Carolina, the desperate search and rescue efforts continue
and resources scarce as many remain without power and water
in Asheville. The North Carolina National Guard working non stop
to deliver supplies to residents.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Go look at the before and after of Asheville that
no longer exists. And one of the things that I
was reading is a vast majority of these people have
some sort of hurricane insurance. They have a certain amount
of insurance for certain things, but the kind of damage
that was done because of the torrential rains may not

(04:58):
cover all of it. Hell, for some, it may not
cover any of the damage that was done.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
Joe Biden, what does the stage of the storm zone need?
Look a president, what are the stage of the storm zone?

Speaker 6 (05:12):
What do they need?

Speaker 5 (05:13):
What you saw today on the storm zone?

Speaker 8 (05:17):
Get there?

Speaker 9 (05:18):
I'm going what storm is solving?

Speaker 10 (05:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (05:21):
They don't never any that they need. They're very happy
off the board.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
Wow you said that out late? What storm? We had
a storm? What storm are you talking about? My god,
what a nightmare? And are they very happy? No, they're not.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Let's remind everybody you're going through arguably the worst time
in your life. You may have lost everything. All you
have on are the clothes on your back. Maybe you're
sleeping in a gym, getting bottled water from volunteers. Your house,
your business, and in some cases, your family, your animals.

(06:00):
Everything is gone.

Speaker 12 (06:01):
Now.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
Do I expect the federal government to be Peter Pan
or a Genie and ride in there and go We're
gonna fix everything.

Speaker 13 (06:08):
No?

Speaker 3 (06:08):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
But remember he was supposed to be the great empathizer, right,
He's the great empathize. It just didn't and hasn't come
across that way. It's come across silent, It's come across
and you're going to no matter what you do in
this situation, it was going to become political and it
was never going to be what people are hoping the
government's going to come in and do and put their
arm around you and fix it. How many times have

(06:30):
we seen this? The state level's going to have a
better opportunity to do that. On top of that, local people.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
Rallying, doing those things that need to be done. At
the local level. We're not getting the amount of support
that we need.

Speaker 14 (06:46):
We have in same Fama we have with same Red Cross,
we have, with same hearts, with hands. We've seen no
agencies campad the year. Most people drive through with their
cameras out filming a slot for animals in a zoo
and don't stop.

Speaker 15 (07:01):
How could the government do us like this? And how
could the whole country just forget about us?

Speaker 3 (07:06):
Like it's not enough?

Speaker 15 (07:09):
What what is being done is not enough. I mean
either are entire communities that have been just decimated. There
is I mean, where is our supper bed?

Speaker 16 (07:20):
I mean for Kamala and I was I am an
avid supporter for her to staying in Florida today and
make I mean make a statement.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
Where is our government.

Speaker 12 (07:32):
It's too late. I mean they took too long. They
they had It took him five days to get here.
And I mean it took five days for Biden to
come here, and he didn't think we were worth coming
down to see him us himself. He had to fly
over on his way to Raleigh. It's it's disgraceful. I

(07:53):
mean they keep saying we the people. No, there is
no way the people. It's them versus us. So they're
not for us. It's all about them. They tell us
what we need instead of just instead of listening to us.

Speaker 3 (08:05):
People have a right to be angry.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
And the politics, unfortunately, get in the middle of all
of this, and you've got the right versus the left
and FEMA, and we didn't fund it and we don't
have enough money and the money went to the migrants
and then went to the Ukraine and we couldn't get it.

Speaker 3 (08:18):
We need more money. You know what people need.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
They need to be heard, they need to be angry.
You need to be the punching bag. You need all
of those things to happen. If you're the federal government
and in particular the president. They need somebody who's a
strong leader. They need to feel like you're there with them,

(08:45):
and they don't feel that way. They don't feel like
you're doing everything. And it shows three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson,

Speaker 7 (10:28):
You're listening to the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (10:30):
It is finally Friday. You know what that means.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
We relax with a little musical accompaniment from our good
friend George Jones, and we listen to the sounds of
the insanity, the craziness, and the hilarity of this past week.

Speaker 17 (10:46):
I am not free today because the system worked. I
am free today after years of incarceration, because I read
guilty to journalism.

Speaker 18 (10:54):
I would like Democrats and Republicans to both reject censorship.

Speaker 3 (10:58):
You cannot yell fire in a crowded theater. That's that's
the test, that's the Supreme Court test. I'm not one
hundred dollars talking my man hole. I know how I'll say.

Speaker 19 (11:07):
Anybody's burning a hold, I through my bargeting and do
my skin.

Speaker 9 (11:13):
Come money morning, I'll be brown. It's fine, fi free
cair I'm done my motor running down again.

Speaker 3 (11:24):
It's fine that I'm not drub working.

Speaker 9 (11:30):
Time.

Speaker 20 (11:33):
Federal government does not being responsive.

Speaker 21 (11:35):
Federal relief and assistance that we have been providing has
included a FEMA providing seven hundred and fifty dollars.

Speaker 22 (11:42):
Can't do seven hundred and fifty dollars, Oh you big
fun spend the right.

Speaker 9 (11:48):
It's fine that fire free, sir. I've done my motor
running read again. It's fine that I'm not trum burning.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
Time.

Speaker 18 (12:03):
The one hundred and sixty five page filing is an
effort by prosecutors to keep the January sixth case against
Trump alive.

Speaker 23 (12:10):
But the allegations here really relate to Trump's private acts
as candidate for office and really had nothing to do
with what he was doing officially as president of the
United States.

Speaker 3 (12:20):
Now it is out the cats out of the bag.

Speaker 24 (12:22):
He can't try to appeal or keep it from being there,
so it has an immediate impact as a sort of
an October surprise in the election.

Speaker 20 (12:30):
He's a deranged person. I call him deranged Jack Smith.

Speaker 25 (12:47):
She's don't have a family theme. Machines aren't nance acts.
Machines aren't spending money in our community.

Speaker 11 (12:53):
Long Beach. I have a terminal automated crane's run by themself,
The truck's run by, the ship unloads by itself, and
the ship loads by itself.

Speaker 9 (13:03):
But we are never gonna.

Speaker 16 (13:04):
Allow and we're never gonna apologize the robots taking all work.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
Okay, guys, we got to get off the roof.

Speaker 9 (13:09):
These are coming down right next to us here.

Speaker 26 (13:11):
Today Ron launched nearly two hundred ballistic missiles towards targets
in Israel, and any of you.

Speaker 7 (13:16):
Thought I hadn't a boar boar earlier this year.

Speaker 3 (13:19):
That's why the restoration of roversus. Wait, and I'm a
knucklehead at times.

Speaker 2 (13:23):
You are a knucklehead, so we'll let you guys know
that he is a knucklehead. It's just an awe shucks
kind of guy.

Speaker 3 (13:31):
Man.

Speaker 2 (13:32):
That was a hell of a week, wasn't it? Barely
catcher birth? And I could have done a thousand more
of those. There's like so much stuff. The how quick
things move nowadays, It truly is incredible, the speed of
news and also the speed of our forgetfulness, Like we
can only focus for on something for so long before

(13:56):
something else, bright and shiny comes.

Speaker 3 (13:59):
The way that we've got a chain your focus. My god,
we gotta move again. What were you talking about before?
I couldn't tell you it was?

Speaker 24 (14:06):
Was?

Speaker 3 (14:06):
That was minutes ago? It is, it is. It's incredible,
it really is.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
By the way Trump Trump makes me, he would have
been the guy in the mob that gotta give everybody nicknames.
I call him Derange Derange Jack Smith. This is one
of my new favorite ones from yesterday.

Speaker 27 (14:23):
Kamala Harris is out on the campaign trail today with
Liz Shaney, your thoughts on that.

Speaker 20 (14:28):
Well, Liz Shanny lost for Congress. She was terrible.

Speaker 28 (14:32):
Liz Cheney is a stupid warhawk. All she wants to
do is shoot missiles at people. I really think it hurts.
I think frankly if Kamala, I think they hurt each other.
I think they're so bad, both of them.

Speaker 20 (14:44):
I love it.

Speaker 3 (14:44):
She's just a stupid warhawk.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Here comes Donald gives everybody a nickname Trump three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four, twenty three act. She had Benton show.
It's your Twitter, your Instagram, you know, one of the
other things in there, the listening to walls.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
Yes, we know.

Speaker 2 (15:01):
He's a knuckle in the free speech thing, which is
the other night in the debate and this battle of
free speech. There shouldn't be a battle. There shouldn't be,
And we talk about this all the time because it
is important. It is so important. Free speech gives us
all that we have, all the rights that we have.

(15:24):
How we have traveled from being a country that it
came from slavery, Those things came with free speech.

Speaker 3 (15:33):
You understand that when you see the LGBTQ plus see
when you see all of these things that are happening
and the movements. That's because of free speech. I don't
think people understand that. And his whole thing is, well,
it's been settled. It's not been settled. According to you

(15:54):
can't yell fire in a crowded theater.

Speaker 20 (15:56):
It is.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
You can yell fire in a crowded nobody's gonna stop
you from doing that. It is did your speech cause people.

Speaker 3 (16:10):
To do something?

Speaker 2 (16:12):
That's that's the the if you will, the litanus test
of it all. If you walk into a theater day,
go fire and nobody does anything, you're not in trouble
for that. We seem to think, well, that's that's the
litus test. No, you know that, And that's like the
big issue with like Trump and everybody who always says, well,
January sixth and the riots go, listen to what he said, peaceful, peaceful,

(16:33):
march down there peacefully. I thought what took place on
that day was a black eye on our country. I
thought what took place that day was absolutely disgusting. But
I also say, your actions are your actions. Did he
get up there and say you need to march down
there and you need to riot? He didn't, But for
many people they saw him as the catalyst.

Speaker 29 (16:55):
For that.

Speaker 2 (16:57):
Where does your responsibility begin? That's the question. If you
think about your actions, are your actions if you felt
he was giving you a signal, that's kind of a
you thing. Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four,
twenty three at Chad Benson shows your Twitter, your Instagram.

Speaker 3 (17:20):
All the other things.

Speaker 2 (17:21):
A lot of stuff to get to. Today is a
big show, kids, it's a Friday. We're still going to
do a very big show. Chad Benson Show, Son, Chad.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
Benson Show, Independent Thoughts, Independent Life.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
This is Chad Benson some thirty three days away from
the night that voting ends, and then the next day
is when the battle continues. Because if you think that
it's ending on that night, unless there's some massive blowout, kids,
you'd be fooling yourself. So everybody's getting in all the
endorsements they can. Well, Trump's got no.

Speaker 3 (18:19):
Endorsements because he's the worst person in the history of
the world. Do you know that, Chad? Yeah, I know,
it's the worst. Never see anybody worse. He's like, I'm like,
oh my god, it's polepot Stalin. Is that you chairman, Mao,
you look like Donald Trump? Adolph Hitler? Is that you're

(18:41):
so much taller Napoleon. They said you were like five five,
Oh my god, and you were never orange in any
of the pictures.

Speaker 2 (18:52):
So yesterday some more endorsements rolled in. Let's start with
Liz Chane. You're gonna play the whole thing. It's like
a minute fifteen. I could have cut it down to none,
but you know what it's worth a lissen.

Speaker 22 (19:03):
In this election, a broad coalition has come together to
support Vice President Kamala Harris. That we may disagree on
some things, but we are bound together by the one
thing that matters to us as Americans more than any other,
and that's our duty to our constitution and our belief

(19:25):
in the miracle and the blessing of this incredible nation.
We have a shared commitment, a shared commitment as Americans
to ensuring that future generations live in a nation where
power is transferred peacefully, where our leaders are men and
women of good faith, and where are our public servants
set aside partisan battles to do what's right for this country.

(19:49):
So today I ask all of you here and everyone
listening across this great country to join us. I ask
you to meet this man. I ask you to stand
in truth to reject the depraved cruelty of Donald Trump,
and I ask you instead to help us elect Kamala

(20:13):
Harris for presidents.

Speaker 3 (20:19):
Wow, she's just eloquent. So there you go.

Speaker 2 (20:23):
It's got the Liz Cheney vote. Fantastic. How about Bruce
Springsteen because I'm like, you know what, I'm not doing
anything to live with the Bruce says.

Speaker 3 (20:32):
To say, and Bruce Springstein and Bruce Springsteen friends and.

Speaker 10 (20:38):
Bruce Springstein friends, fans and the press have asked me
who I'm supporting in this most important of elections, and
with full noveledgies in my opinions no more or less
important than those of any of my fellow citizens, here
is my answer. I'm supporting Kamala Harris for president and
Tim Waltz for Vice president, no way, and opposing Donald

(20:59):
Trump and JD. Vance. Why why we are shortly coming
upon one of the most consequential elections in our nation's history.
Perhaps not since the Civil War has this great country
felt as politically, spiritually, and emotionally divided as it does
then at this moment. It doesn't have to be this way.

(21:21):
The common values, the shared stories that make us a
great and united nation are waiting to be rediscovered and
retold once again. Now that will take time, hard work, intelligence, faith,
and women and men with the national good guiding their hearts.

Speaker 2 (21:42):
Wow, look a lot of what he said. I said
this all the time. We're way closer in what we
believe than we are further apart. There's no doubt about that.
The extremes dominate way too much of the conversation. Again,
no doubt about that, because they're the ones who get

(22:02):
the the you know, they're the ones who get the press.
They're the ones who get noticed. You've got to say
stuff that's over the top. And we're at a point
now with our outrage porn that you have to take
it a step further because just regular outrage doesn't get
anybody to notice. You've got to throw not just flames anymore.

(22:24):
You've got to throw lightning flames. You may have to
drop a bomb. So he is right in some of
that stuff. But this whole thought like we're all gonna come, No,
we're not. We're not because we are divided in a
lot of the stuff that matters.

Speaker 3 (22:41):
For people.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
A lot of that stuff that matters to people, like
immigration and the just unfettered access that it seems every
country has now at our border obviously pro choice, pro life.
That's a big deal as well.

Speaker 3 (23:01):
How we are.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
When it comes to Israel, and you've got this left
side of the aisle now who is.

Speaker 3 (23:14):
Not really standing up the way that maybe we have
in the past.

Speaker 2 (23:20):
And I think a lot of people out there on
the right are like, what the blank are you doing?
And even some people on the left. And then you've
got people on the right going, I don't know if
we should be involved in a European war, and the
left is like, we need to drop bombs more of
them Putin's evil.

Speaker 3 (23:38):
We're in the When it comes to the.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
Average person, you and I Applebye, I don't like apple,
buy donuts, sports football, all of those things.

Speaker 3 (23:50):
Yes, we're very close our neighbors. We're very close in
a lot of ways.

Speaker 2 (23:56):
When it comes to a lot of the big issues
in the political world, we're further apart then we have
been for quite a while. More from Bruce, Ah the
Bruce's Me Bruce.

Speaker 3 (24:09):
At first I thought it was a parody. Hey, everybody's
me Bruce.

Speaker 10 (24:12):
America is the most powerful nation on earth, not just
because of her overwhelming military strength or economic power, but
because of what she stands for, what she means, what
she believes in freedom, social justice, equal opportunity, the right
to be and love who you want. These are the

(24:32):
things that make America greet Donald Trump is the most
dangerous candidate for president in my lifetime. Has disdained for
the sanctity of our constitution, the sanctity of democracy, the
sanctity of the rule of law, and the sanctity of
the peaceful transfer of power. Should disqualify him from the

(24:53):
office of president. Ever again, he doesn't understand the meaning
of this country or what it means to be deeply American.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
By the way, and I believe that Bruce Springsteen absolutely
loves America.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
I do because I've heard the songs. He really loves America.

Speaker 2 (25:17):
This is from the left side of the aisle who
tells us all the time how much America sucks, right,
especially at this younger generation.

Speaker 3 (25:26):
What more from Bruce? All right, you guys, ready?

Speaker 20 (25:28):
All right.

Speaker 10 (25:28):
On the other hand, Kamala Harris and Tim Waltz are
committed through a vision of this country that respects and
includes everyone, regardless of class, religion, race, your political point
of view, or sexual identity. And they want to grow
our economy in a way that benefits all, not just
the few like me on top. That's the vision of

(25:50):
America I've been consistently writing about for fifty five years now.
Everybody sees things different, and I respect your choice as
a fellow citizen. But like you, I've only got one vote.
It's one of the most precious possessions that I have.
That's why come November fifth, I'll be casting my vote.

(26:13):
Ralph Nader, Kamwell, Harrison, Tim Warner, thanks for listening.

Speaker 3 (26:18):
Oh that it's gonna be Ralph Nader Chad.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
This is most consequential election of our lifetime. This may
be the last time we ever see democracy. That is
the most ridiculous thing. I just want to let you
guys know that. Okay, when anybody tells you that, and
I get it from a lot of you out there,
you know, if so and so wins, it's over for democracy.

Speaker 3 (26:37):
You know, SU's and such wins, They're wlding to be
no more democracy. You know, when this thing happens, there's
no more democracy. I'm like, are you guys, are you
being serious?

Speaker 2 (26:48):
And I think there are people out there that are
genuinely serious that they think it's over on both sides
of the aisle. If Harris wins, that's it. It's over
for democracy. If Trump wins, well it's over.

Speaker 3 (26:59):
He's going to install himself as king and everybody in
America is just going to go along with it. I mean,
let me ask you.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
This right honestly, and I want to hear from you.
You can tweet at me at she had Benson show.

Speaker 3 (27:15):
You can text.

Speaker 2 (27:19):
At three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four, twenty three.
That is the text and comment line. You can leave
a voicemail there as well. What happens in four years,
no matter who wins, when we have voting again, is democracy?

Speaker 24 (27:40):
Is it?

Speaker 20 (27:40):
Like?

Speaker 3 (27:41):
Is that a redo? It's like, oh, we were just
kidding know this time? Or serious? How long can you
continue to do that? And here's the thing. If people
continue to give people.

Speaker 2 (27:57):
Actual serious credibility to saying democracy is going to disappear,
and they get it wrong every time, democracy is not
going anywhere. By the way, democracy is very messy. We're
a republic. Remember that democracy is really messy. It is
never easy and it is never perfect. But somehow people

(28:24):
have bought into it's over. If my side doesn't win,
could you imagine that sports. You know, if we don't
win the super Bowl this year, that's it. No more sports,
no more super Bowl, no more NFL.

Speaker 3 (28:35):
It's over. Like, could you what?

Speaker 2 (28:37):
That is the dumbest thing ever? Scott Jennings lonely, Scott, I.

Speaker 30 (28:40):
Just fundamentally disagree that we won't have a democracy. I
think this country is strong, stronger than any individual politician
in either party, and so I believe deeply that the
policy differences matter. So did Liz Cheney. At one point
she used to call Kamala Harris a radical liberal who
would raise taxes, take away guns and health insurance, and
explode the size and power of the federal government. Now

(29:01):
this means something to a lot of people, and so,
like I don't begrudge her her viewpoints. And obviously she
strongly dislikes Donald Trump. And there's a lot of Republicans
and conservatives who probably may have some proclivities that Cheney
has about what Trump did on January the sixth, but
are mortified at the policy outcomes of Biden Harris. They
were not moderate, they were radical liberals, just like Cheney
predicted they would be. And the way Harris has governed

(29:23):
the last three and a half years, I cannot abide.

Speaker 2 (29:26):
And I think that's you know, when the left goes
how can you continue to vote for somebody like Donald Trump?

Speaker 3 (29:31):
To people to learn? How can you continue to do that?
How can you continue to vote for some of the
How can you?

Speaker 2 (29:36):
Because they look over and they say, I can't stand
the person. But my alternative is all the things I
do not agree with. My alternative is going against my beliefs,
the things that I hold. Dear you vote for the
party the person who leads it happens to be right now,

(29:57):
Donald Trump, if you're on the right, I think a
lot of people like to fight in him. A lot
of these people who don't pay a lot of attention
up until Trump got into the race all those years ago,
seriously into politics. But they have become in some cases
devout cult members, I'll say it. But for a lot

(30:21):
of people out there, the people that they're always trying
to reach, these old school conservative, these Reagan Conservatives, right,
these people that have you know, kind of the fiscal conservative,
but maybe not so much the religious right. But you

(30:41):
know they're trying to reach there are so many things
that they would have to go against in their belief
to cast a ballot for Harris. I think they'd rather
stay at home than cast a ballot for somebody who
is going to do the exact opposite of what they believe. Yes,
why so if you're out there on the left and

(31:02):
you wonder why, that's why some people are voting for
the person, and some people are voting against the person.

Speaker 3 (31:11):
But for the most.

Speaker 2 (31:15):
People out there on the right side of the aisle,
they're voting their beliefs. And this person right now happens
to be the person that is leading.

Speaker 3 (31:27):
The party.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four to twenty
three at Chad Benson, show your Twitter, your Instagram.

Speaker 32 (33:09):
The chat visit showed.

Speaker 3 (33:13):
Her how's a big scene?

Speaker 9 (33:16):
Just give me in now and.

Speaker 3 (33:18):
Then albis high is that ivory tower?

Speaker 31 (33:26):
You're no out?

Speaker 11 (33:30):
Friends?

Speaker 3 (33:32):
What perhaps you spare the whiskey round and Garth saying
that so.

Speaker 13 (33:39):
What.

Speaker 3 (33:40):
Lady has come forward.

Speaker 2 (33:43):
And has filed a lawsuit against Garth Brooks alleging some
nasty stuff.

Speaker 32 (33:48):
She accuses him of rape in a hotel room in
Los Angeles in twenty nineteen where they were traveling for business.
And she also says that she was shown Lewde text
messages from him, that he regularly exposed himself in front
of her, that he regularly groped her. Now again, these
allegations all coming in a lawsuit.

Speaker 2 (34:11):
So it's a civil lawsuit. It is not a criminal lawsuit. Okay,
civil criminal, two separate things. This is his wife's hairdresser,
Tricia Yearwood, and apparently they came out to La I
guess and normally he has an entourage.

Speaker 3 (34:33):
They didn't come this time. This is what is alleged.

Speaker 2 (34:37):
It was just Garth and this woman and he supposedly
allegedly raped her in a hotel. Now he got win
that this was going to come out.

Speaker 32 (34:51):
Here's where things get interesting. This morning I reported on
an anonymous filing from a celebrity plaintiff known as a
John Doe. Now we know that that is Garth in
that filing. He was trying to block this accuser from
coming forward, denying her allegations and saying that they are
untrue and lout.

Speaker 3 (35:10):
So it's he said.

Speaker 2 (35:11):
She said, I don't know if there was a police
report ever filed. It's always a tail tale because you
don't know. I mean, this could be all true. And
if he's true and he raped her, I mean there
needs to be some not just money. It needs some
serious crime here committed. If it's not true and this

(35:33):
is a grab for money, then you've tarnished a person's.

Speaker 3 (35:38):
Life.

Speaker 2 (35:39):
So again he said, she said thing. I'm sure we'll
find out more in the coming weeks. But he got
in front of it, so he knew the civil case
was coming because he probably knew she's going to be
asking me for money. What if it was consensual, you

(35:59):
just wanted to money. That's blackmail, Ison you still do
that anymore? Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four
twenty three at Chad Benson show is your Twitter, Yes,
we do, except if you're the president. What oh my, Lauren, Chad,
you brought that up, didn't you, com citing the show,
grab the podcast.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
It is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (36:16):
This is the Chad Benson Show, Independent Thoughts, Independent life,

(36:46):
This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 3 (36:48):
Jobs. Jobs, Job, job, jobs, have plenty of.

Speaker 33 (36:51):
Jobs, two hundred and fifty four thousand, significantly better than
one hundred and fifty expected in an upward revision to
last month from one hundred and forty two thousand to
one hundred and fifty nine thousand, which means the two
month revision now is a little over seventy thousand. If

(37:12):
we look at the unemployment rate, it is at four
point one, four point one. It moved lower. I can
hear yields moving higher as we speak. And four point one,
of course, equals where we were in June. You have
to go to May to get a lower number.

Speaker 3 (37:29):
At four percent.

Speaker 33 (37:30):
Average hourly earnings month over month better than expected, up
four tenths of a percent, which equals where we have
been in May. You have to go back to the
beginning of the year January, when we were up half
of one percent. Now, if we look at average hourly
earnings on a year over year basis. This number also

(37:51):
much better than expected. Four percent. Four percent. That equals
where we were in May. You have to go to
March to find a higher number. Four point one.

Speaker 3 (38:01):
Hot diggity damn man.

Speaker 2 (38:03):
If I am the bind administration, just go with Harris
because I don't even think he knows where he's at.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
But you're out there, just like Dower, freaking crushing it.

Speaker 34 (38:11):
Man.

Speaker 3 (38:12):
Jobs are through the roof.

Speaker 2 (38:14):
We averted the toilet paper disaster of the impending port strike.
After getting that deal done, we'll talk about that in
a second. Unemployment four point one percent. Stocks are through
the roof of ol.

Speaker 3 (38:27):
Baby should be all over this. Man got to run
with this.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
If you're Trump, you gotta be pissed. I mean, these
numbers are freaking good. So how do you counter that
simple inflation? That's still got to be your thing? Because
and we've talked about this, right, you know, like the economy.
I always feel like, for the most part, the president
is kind of like a coach, get way too much
credit and way too much blame. And I've said that

(38:54):
through Bush and Obama and Trump and bite. But we
live in the time of headlines only, and that's all
the matters.

Speaker 3 (39:05):
Headlines are so got to run with it. So if you're.

Speaker 2 (39:09):
Donald Trump and you're the campaign today, let's put on
our campaign ads.

Speaker 3 (39:14):
What are we looking at here? How do we combat this?

Speaker 2 (39:16):
I mean two hundred fifty four thousand, it's one hundred
thousand more. They're revising up. My god, unemployments at four
point one. Inflation's coming down, the rate of inflation, and
that's what you have to do. Look, no doubt these
are great And a side note here America congratulations, huh,

(39:36):
well done. This is an US thing. We never give
ourselves the nuts credit because we always think they are
the designers of what goes on in our world. So,
if you're Donald Trump, how do you in the campaign
flip this simple inflation? And we have talked about this

(39:57):
for a while, because you've got to figure what is
your attack going to be?

Speaker 3 (40:05):
Right?

Speaker 2 (40:05):
We could do the woke stuff, the issues abortion, we obviously,
foreign wars, immigration, those are serious issues.

Speaker 20 (40:14):
Climate chat. Shut up.

Speaker 2 (40:18):
You have two hats on. One hat is you're an employee,
you are a business owner. Jobs, business is pretty good,
Opportunities are available. We're growing a little bit fantastic. But
you take that off and you put on the other hat,

(40:40):
you go to the store, the consumer hat, and we
are a consumption society. Well, the consumer hat says, life
sucks right now because my one hundred dollars in groceries
is really one hundred and fifty two. And that's not good.

(41:05):
Because while my twenty dollars an hour is now twenty
four dollars an hour, in truth, to keep up with
where I was, I need to be making twenty seven
dollars an hour. So you combat it with the fact that, yeah,
this is great. These numbers are great.

Speaker 3 (41:21):
And by the way, again America, this this was not government.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
Government can get in the way, government can slow down,
government can add some gas to something.

Speaker 3 (41:33):
But we you and I and everybody else, this is
this is this is what we do.

Speaker 2 (41:39):
We create, we build, We do these things, sometimes in
partnership with the government. Sometimes despite government's best intentions to help,
they hurt. But you combat these kind of numbers with, yeah,
the stock markets up, that's fantastic. Remember, she wants to

(42:04):
tax unrealized gains on people.

Speaker 3 (42:06):
That's just the rich. For now.

Speaker 2 (42:12):
You've got to find the place that you know it's
going to affect people the most, and the inflation side
of it is the biggest factor. I mean, that's a
huge factor. Some of this is obviously people are hiring
for the season, which is you know you can combat
with that, like, well, of course these numbers should be up.

Speaker 3 (42:30):
We're hiring for the season, So that's how you come
at something like this. But these numbers are great, but
we're worse off than we ever have been.

Speaker 2 (42:40):
Said, No one except for everybody who overdoes things got
to hear that all the time. Last how we're talking
about it. People are getting mad at me. It's like
you're defending them. I'm like, who are them other Americans? Yes,
because if they win, who are they the other side,
they're going to destroy the MOCRA.

Speaker 9 (43:00):
No, they're not.

Speaker 2 (43:02):
Neither of these two individuals have the power to destroy
our democracy. And if you think that's true and that's
how easy it is to destroy, well, then that doesn't
make us a strong country at all, does it that
somehow the rest of us are just gonna roll over
and go, well, he's taken over the country.

Speaker 3 (43:19):
I guess we should just give it to him. He's
now a god. Or sure, she totally did it now
she gets to be the queen of everything.

Speaker 2 (43:31):
Idiot three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four to
twenty three at Shedminton Show. Shoot Twitter tweet at his
text the program.

Speaker 3 (43:37):
You know who believes that people who ran out bought
all the toilet paper because they thought, you know what,
there's a strike at the docks, and I gotta crap
a lot, so I need toilet paper, buy everything.

Speaker 4 (43:52):
It's along the Eastern Gulf coast are up and running
after they shut down for three days during that massive
dock worker strike. The union and the ship Big industry
group reaching a tentative agreement to suspend the strike until
January fifteenth. Sources familiar with the negotiations tell us that
wages will go up by sixty two percent over the

(44:12):
new six year contract, not as much as the union wanted,
but a lot more than the shipping companies had originally offered.

Speaker 3 (44:20):
And this is another win for them. How's this another
win for the for the Biden Harris administration because a
little political pressure.

Speaker 4 (44:30):
This sweetened deal from the Maritime Alliance did come after
some public pressure from the Biden administration and the President
himself asking these shipping companies to share their profits to
put forward a contract that would offer those higher wages, and.

Speaker 2 (44:45):
So it's it is a tentative agreement. It is not
a forever agreement. They're going to have to get back
to it. And one of the big sticking points is
still automation.

Speaker 4 (44:54):
Yeah, very huge sticking point is over the use of
the automated machinery. And frankly, this tentative ag does not
seem to address that. The union has been concerned about
how machines like automated cranes could take over their jobs,
and they really see this as an existential question. They
want protections built into their contract that would guarantee that

(45:16):
shipping companies wouldn't just buy employ machinery instead of them.

Speaker 3 (45:22):
Yeah, they didn't get what they wanted.

Speaker 2 (45:24):
Remember yesterday we played a lot of that stuff, like
all take less money to make sure the robots don't
take my job three two, three, five, twenty four to
twenty three at you had Benson's show, It's Your Twitter.
The Great toilet paper Disaster of twenty twenty four has
been averted. All we'll talk a little bit about disasters
with the politics of disasters coming up, but first let
me talking about raycon Best dearbuds around.

Speaker 3 (45:45):

Speaker 3 (46:40):
Bye, Raycon dot Com slash Chad. It is the Chatmdson Show.

Speaker 7 (46:54):

Speaker 2 (46:56):
There's politics in natural disasters. There's politics and everything.

Speaker 3 (47:00):
Now, I mean there is.

Speaker 2 (47:02):
I mean, I think we recognize that, but the politics
of this natural disaster is growing every second.

Speaker 3 (47:11):
Why is that? Well, because there's no money for people.
People are pissed, people are angry people, and.

Speaker 2 (47:21):
Well, Tennessee, which is where I'm currently residing right now,
relaxing and enjoying myself, the eastern part of it is
washed the blank out. North Carolina, parts of it don't
exist like it used to. Florida, Georgia, FEMA. What about FEMA.
Don't they have the money? I thought that's what they're
there for.

Speaker 3 (47:41):
What's going on? Where's the money?

Speaker 12 (47:43):
FEMA doesn't have enough money to last hurricane season. What's
your reaction hearing that.

Speaker 20 (47:47):
Well, they're doing a very bad job.

Speaker 28 (47:48):
They've given over a billion dollars to illegal migrants that
came in, and now they have no money for North Carolina,
for Georgia, for South Carolina and Alabama, Tennessee and Florida.
I think that's a disgrace. This is a country that's
being run by fools.

Speaker 3 (48:04):
That's right, Well, Chad, that's just patently a lie. I've
read the news, I've seen it. There's no way that
any of these things can be true. That's a lie.
Once again, he is lying. Who Trump? Trump's lying?

Speaker 2 (48:18):
Yes, So you go and you look and he said, Okay,
what's the real truth, because as we know, there is
a real truth. The Daily Beast, Trump makes bs migrant claim,
rolling Stone Trump's lies about Hurricane's response. Okay, so what

(48:40):
is the truth? Because there is a truth? And are
the Republicans jumping on this right now? Of course of
course they are. Why wouldn't you be? And rightly so,
by the way, based on the way that things have gone.
All you have to do is listen to the rest
that is there.

Speaker 3 (49:01):
We're not getting the amount of support.

Speaker 12 (49:03):
That we need.

Speaker 14 (49:03):
We haven't seen Fama, we haven't seen Red Cross, we
haven't seen hearts with hands. We've seen no agencies counting here.
Most people drive through with their cameras out filming us
for animals in a zoo and don't stop.

Speaker 15 (49:18):
How could the government do us like this? How could
the whole country just forget about a slick?

Speaker 3 (49:25):
It's not enough?

Speaker 15 (49:26):
What what is being done is not enough. I mean
there are entire communities that have been just decimated. There
is I mean, where is our supper bed?

Speaker 16 (49:38):
I mean for Kamala and I was I am an
avid supporter for her to stand in Florida today and make,
I mean make a statement, where is our government.

Speaker 12 (49:50):
It's too late. I mean they took too long. They
uh they had. It took them five days to care here,
and I mean it took five for Biden to come here,
and he didn't think we were worth coming down to
see him us himself. He had to fly over on
his way to Raleigh. It's disgraceful. I mean they keep

(50:12):
saying we the people. No, there is no we the people.
It's them versus us. So they're not for us. It's
all about them. They tell us what we need instead
of just instead of listening to us.

Speaker 2 (50:22):
Those people feel abandoned. They're angry, and we talked about yesterday.
You are at your lowest point maybe in your life.
You've lost everything that you had just a few days ago.
You may have lost loved ones. You are looking around

(50:43):
saying I don't have a home. I may only have
the clothes on my back. They're going to be pissed.
And the response, while it's frustrating, as anybody would be frustrated,
it's not gonna be perfect, and it's the government. So
the government's gonna over regulate, piss people off, slow and moving.

(51:09):
But it became about politics, and it should be about
these people's lives.

Speaker 3 (51:15):
And that's the frustrating thing. How many people I texted
me over the last several days and well, you know
the Republicans they all voted against the FEMA. No they didn't.

Speaker 2 (51:23):
They voted against the continuing resolution. So stop lying about that.
Stop lying about that. So did a billion dollars really
go to migrants?

Speaker 3 (51:33):
Yes? It did? Now had that money?

Speaker 2 (51:36):
Because that's the funny thing is my orcist comes out
and says, now we ca that money has already been
allocated for them. It's a congressional thing. Here's the thing,
reallocation for emergencies. In emergency situations, FEMA may have greater
leeway to redirect funds to address the urgent needs, especially
responding to multiple disasters. Now, let's just say you needed

(52:01):
congressional oversight in some of this money, because the way
it works is money's allocated in certain ways and Congress
has oversight in certain things. Some of it goes in
just to the like the regular fund, right, like here's
your banking account. Some of it goes into this, goes
for this, this, this, and this. They have leeway to
move this money quickly. So could this money have been used?

Speaker 20 (52:24):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (52:26):
Could it have been predicted what was going to take place. No,
and that included how many kazillions and billions of people
apparently billions. I know I'm overstating it there, how many
millions of people have come into this country and how
the money was used. So politics is playing a role.
There's no doubt about that. These people have every right
to be pissed. They feel abandoned, they feel scared, they're angry, sad,

(52:53):
trying to process it all. They should be pissed, they
should be angry, it should be all of the emotions.
And government need to get your head out of your
ass and do the right thing. It's unfortunate that we
don't allow people to grieve and to take in the
moment of their life changing in a heartbeat before we
turn it political. But we don't do that anymore because

(53:19):
time moves too quick in the world of politics and
in news, and I think we recognize that, and that's
what's frustrating. Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four,
twenty three at Chad Benton Show, it is your Twitter,
tweet at us text the program, Love hearing from all
of you. A lot of stuff still to get to
our buddy, Zach Abram Chi investment officer Bollard Capital is

Speaker 3 (54:35):
What do people hate the Jews? The best historical answer
that I know.

Speaker 29 (54:38):
I'll give you three statements and try to connect them
in a logical way. Number one, Jesus came to save
all of all humans from our misery. Statement number two,
I'm still miserable. Statement number three, the Jews kill Jesus.

Speaker 3 (54:53):
I would add to that, a lot of people think
the Jews killed Jesus to chosen people. Strikes a lot
of people wrong. And three successful.

Speaker 2 (55:02):
Yeah, that successful thing. That's a big deal.

Speaker 3 (55:04):
That's called jealousy.

Speaker 9 (55:06):
Jews.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
Well, they're space lasers. Yes, I saw with Marjorie Tyler.
Green tweeted, we'll probably get that in a little bit.

Speaker 3 (55:12):
What did I say earlier?

Speaker 2 (55:13):
You gotta be louder than everybody else doesn't matter. It
no longer matters what you say as long as it's
loud enough and wacky enough to get attention.

Speaker 3 (55:23):
Okay, but what about the young people?

Speaker 33 (55:25):
Now, what about this weird alliance between wokism and jihadism.

Speaker 35 (55:30):
You've got like this many Jews on TikTok, which is
the most important mechanism to transmit information among young people today,
and you've got a vastly larger Muslim population. The algorithms
are driving the hate, as you've all suggested.

Speaker 3 (55:42):
So the answer is, get more Jews on TikTok.

Speaker 2 (55:44):
That's the answer, Get more Jews on TikTok. Which is
funny because you know this is last week they talk
about this. But Dan Abrams had Michael Schellenberger on to
talk about TikTok because there is a massive amount of
pro Palastinnian anti Jewish insanity on there. I've seen it
with my kids and they're just like, no, this is

(56:06):
real and it's crazy. But Abrams was talking to Schellenberger
over the fact that he has been suspended for being
positive about Israel.

Speaker 3 (56:15):
Isn't that insane?

Speaker 2 (56:16):
And of course, like anything, trying to get any answer
to why you are suspended is virtually impossible.

Speaker 26 (56:21):
Of course, there's not many answers because TikTok does not
really give much explanation for these arbitrary decisions, like you're
pointing out. You know, I myself have been censored on
TikTok for making the claim that there's two biological sexes.
That's something that's broadly held by all scientists, basically all

(56:43):
legitimate scientists that censored. We also saw Jennifer Say, the
former CEO of Levi's, has started a new clothing company
to defend women's sports. They've been censored very significantly by TikTok.
They did have a conversation with TikTok, but did not
get straight answers.

Speaker 3 (57:00):
Going to they don't have to TikTok is going to
do whatever it is that they want to do.

Speaker 2 (57:04):
It's their company, and they like the fact that this
version of TikTok, this version of the thing that we
have here, is both a waste of time with some
entertainment and can be a source for young kids to
go and in some cases get told a bunch of
crap that they buy into.

Speaker 26 (57:24):
Look, I think people have to understand that social media
companies are regulated by the US government under a different
standard than publishers like News Nation, the New York Times,
or even my own publication. We're considered publishers. Social media
platforms have special privileges under what's called Section two thirty
of a nineteen ninety six law that gave internet companies

(57:44):
special privileges, including protections from liability, lawsuits and whatnot. If
they're going to have that special standard, then they need
to let adults decide our own legal content rather than
behave like published you can't have You shouldn't be able
to have it both ways. All Congress needs to do
is make it clear that if you're going to take

(58:06):
advantage of this really sweeping protections from liability, then you
should have an obligation to allow those of us who
are adults to choose our own legal content.

Speaker 3 (58:16):
Well, it's just what I'm you know, it's the whole
free speech thing. It's like, let me decide.

Speaker 11 (58:20):
You know.

Speaker 2 (58:20):
The other night, you know, during the debate, they're like,
you know, misinformation and disinformation.

Speaker 3 (58:26):
No, I'm a grown ass man.

Speaker 2 (58:31):
Let me decide what misinformation and disinformation is. Let me decide,
Let me make my own choices. But back to the Israel, thing.
TikTok has a bias towards Israel, and they are pro Palestine,
and that is evident. I saw it with my eldest

(58:52):
the amount for every one positive is Israel thing, especially
after October seventh was eight positive things about Hamas and Palestine.

Speaker 36 (59:05):
And look, I don't have a problem with the idea
of certain extreme content, right, And again, how you define
that becomes the question, Right, where do you draw the line?
I get it, These are tough lines to draw, but
it seems to me that TikTok is going way beyond
any line one might draw and simply saying, well, you know,

(59:28):
this is a segment that either is about Israel or
pro Israel. And it does feel like I have to
tell you, just based on my personal experience, that the
segments that I did, which were let's call them more
pro Israel as to the post to the ones that
were more critical of Israel were treated differently. Now, I

(59:49):
think what you're saying is that there's never going to
be a way to prove it because we can't get
inside the engine or the people that are doing this right.

Speaker 2 (59:57):
Correct, You're never going to get in there, and with
young people getting their information, not from media that we
would grew up with newspapers, you know, television.

Speaker 3 (01:00:10):
And back in the day when I was younger.

Speaker 2 (01:00:12):
He did admit this, but we basically had you know, ABCNBCCBS,
then we had Fox.

Speaker 3 (01:00:16):
We're like, oh my god, four channels. This is amazing.
But they're not even getting from cable news.

Speaker 2 (01:00:22):
It is social media, in particular TikTok and how it's
presented on TikTok is. If you are pro Israel, if
you are pro protecting yourselves, if you will Israel you're
pro them fighting and killing Hesbealah and Hamas, you are

(01:00:43):
going to get shut down. If you are pro Palestine,
you're going to get a lot of leeway. That's that's
just the way it is.

Speaker 3 (01:00:53):
It sucks.

Speaker 2 (01:00:53):
I was read an article last night and they were
trying to explain how, you know, conservatives like we get
banned from social media more than anybody. So they did
this huge study and it says, now you really don't
you get banned more now.

Speaker 3 (01:01:07):
And this is the funny thing about the study. So
I'm reading the study, I'm like, all right, don't see
IF's I'm willing to look because I know that some
people overreact and so I looked and it's like, well,
you know, are you.

Speaker 2 (01:01:19):
On the conservative side band more than the liberal side?
The answer was yes, and their reasoning was because you
shared more disinformation or whatever, you know, they decided misinformation
disinformation however you want to phrase it.

Speaker 3 (01:01:33):
I got reading it and it starts talking about stuff
that turned out later to be true. So I'm like, so,
let's just take out the truths in this? Is there
a biased at that point in time because you're suspending people?
And I remember we got suspended.

Speaker 2 (01:01:49):
So my uncle handle's lot of the Facebook and we
got you know, I get on there as much as
I can, but I the way I try to break
it up is I've got so much stuff to do.
And I remember, I mean it was actually Anthony I,
but your Anthony and I we we got suspended. I
think we put a picture up and it was a
headline and a picture from the New York Times with Gretitudeberg,
and we got suspended for a week or two.

Speaker 3 (01:02:11):
Said it was fake news.

Speaker 2 (01:02:13):
Now this is a New York Times headline with her picture,
and we got you know, they said, well, you guys
made her out to be Adolf Hitler.

Speaker 3 (01:02:21):
I said no, we didn't.

Speaker 2 (01:02:22):
They said, yeah, look at you get the mustache. I said,
that's a microphone, you idiot. They didn't even bother. It
was just Gretitudenberg. Climate change, you're against it something or
other and we're going to.

Speaker 3 (01:02:36):
Get rid of it. It was just insane. It was well,
welcome to the world we are now in. Kids are
getting their stuff from and you know what, so are
a lot of adults too.

Speaker 2 (01:02:46):
It's not just kids anymore that are getting a ton
of their news in ways that five years ago you'd
be like, no way, Well, guess what. The news media
in the traditional way has lost a lot of their
oomph and they better figure out how to deal with that.

(01:04:28):
officer board Capital Joyce's program. We're going to talk about
the strike, not so much that it's over, but automation,
what kind of effect can it have on the economy,
and a bunch of other stuff.

Speaker 37 (01:04:39):
Chat Benson Show, Like, yeah, so what it's the Chat
Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (01:04:56):
Every time at this week we talk a little economy.

Speaker 2 (01:04:58):
Our good buddy, Zack Abram, investment officer for Capital, friend
of the show, sponsor of the show. All right, let's
get into it. Last night they got a short term
deal done when it came to the ports. Let's move
away from that. The reality of unions in this country,
but something like this, when you've got these men and

(01:05:21):
women who are for the you know, for the sake
of argument, they're arguing for their future, and they look
and they see robots ai, a new world being ushered in.
They see the fact that all these other ports zach
around the globe have gone and essentially turned to machines

(01:05:44):
in some cases to help them. In other cases, to
replace them, and it sounds awful, like, oh, we don't
want people to replace But what are you going to
do in today's world when you see that coming and
you understand it's about efficiency and saving money, all of
those things. How do they approach that without becoming the

(01:06:06):
villains and then fighting something that's coming.

Speaker 3 (01:06:09):
Yeah, and here's the thing.

Speaker 34 (01:06:12):
They have to quit thinking about tomorrow and they need
to start thinking about next month. If they need to
make their cost burden bearable and comfortably bearable for the
underlying economy, or they will usher in their own demise.
It is an economic rule of law. They don't want autonomy.
This ain't the right way to go about it. You're
proving the efficacy and the need for autonomy as we

(01:06:33):
sit here right now. I think it's very short sighted.
But here's the problem, and I hope a lot of
union people wake up to this. If you go listen
to the cat that's running that union down there, to
listen to what he's saying, Listen to the vernacular. This
is about him. Yeah, Hey, this is about him securing
his bag, keeping his nine hundred grand to a milliiear
in his pocket, which is effectively seven to ten X

(01:06:54):
what the average long shorreman's making. He's not sitting in
a pilot chair. He's running aroun and his Bentley in
his motor yacht. He sitting there saying we're gonna punish you.
And we're like, dude, we're on the same team, man,
we all live in the same country. What are you
talking about? And like I said, also the long term ramifications,
if you really cared about your people, this wouldn't be
the tact you're taking now. If you only care about yourself,

(01:07:18):
this is the tact you're taking.

Speaker 2 (01:07:19):
And I get you want to protect your people. You
know this, dude, AI all of the automation. It's a
freight train. You can either get on it and figure
out how it can work for you or it's gonna
run your ass over.

Speaker 34 (01:07:29):
Yeah, he's I feel like he's the guy you know,
I like back in the twenties.

Speaker 3 (01:07:34):
He's fighting. He's fighting the combustible engine. Yeah, we're not
giving up buggy whips.

Speaker 20 (01:07:39):
We're not doing it right.

Speaker 9 (01:07:41):
You can't make us.

Speaker 3 (01:07:43):
You're just like, okay, man, you're a you're peeing in
the wind brother.

Speaker 31 (01:07:46):
Yeah, And and you're gonna and you're gonna.

Speaker 34 (01:07:49):
Really stick it to your folks if you continue down
this route, hopefully they see it.

Speaker 2 (01:07:53):
Talking to Zach Abraham, Chiefvestment Officer, Board Capital, h I
look in the market and I see some value there,
and a lot of it is you and I've talked.

Speaker 3 (01:08:01):
About this man. Is in the commodity market. There's a
lot of that stuff out there.

Speaker 2 (01:08:05):
Gold, silver, I mean, my god, Costco is selling what
platinum now, I mean, it's just pay it's out there,
and it's it's.

Speaker 3 (01:08:12):
Not the sexy stuff that people a want AI, this,
that and the other. But it's real, it's tangible, it's
something you can feel, it's something you can hold, and
it's something in the inflationary world is beautiful.

Speaker 34 (01:08:21):
Yeah, and here here's we were just talking about that
today on the Daily Dots. Guys, As always, this is
not an investment recommendation.

Speaker 8 (01:08:28):
Don't know what's appropriate for you.

Speaker 34 (01:08:29):
Don't so I'll go out and buy or sell a
bunch of stuff based on what I'm saying. But having
said that, I in my career have never seen so
bear with me here, but I have never seen two
asset classes that are so tied together, and yet the
differential spread between the valuations is this wide and people

(01:08:50):
are like, what are you talking about commodities and AI?

Speaker 3 (01:08:53):
Absolutely?

Speaker 9 (01:08:54):
Why do I say that?

Speaker 34 (01:08:55):
Go listen to what Sun Dark peach I just said,
CEO Google, Okay, you and I've been talking about uranium
for a while. What did Microsoft just buy? They just
bought all the power from the third nuclear reactor on
Third Mile Island right what it's Sundar Peach I said.
He said, We'll take as much nuclear power you can get,
and we're prepared to pay a premium. What they mean
by a premium is on average three to four x

(01:09:18):
normal power prices that these guys can sell it to. Okay,
they're talking about building SMRs, which are small modular regular reactors. Okay,
the full reactors take about five years. Well, depending on
permitting and stuff like that. Let's say it's five years
to build one. How do you think they're going to
power that data center between now and then?

Speaker 3 (01:09:38):
That gas baby?

Speaker 34 (01:09:39):
SpaceX is using that gas generators right now for that
same purpose. The need for commodity, like I only want
AI commodities are born and you're like, dude, you how.

Speaker 3 (01:09:49):
Are they going to power the AI? Man? Yeah, there's
no magic to this baby, there's no magic.

Speaker 34 (01:09:55):
No, And then you're sitting there and I can go
after stock after stock where these things are trading it
one and a half times book value, three and four
times earnings, no debt on the balance sheet. We're looking
at now, Gold's a different story.

Speaker 9 (01:10:07):
Gold.

Speaker 34 (01:10:07):
I've never seen stocks and I've seen expensive commodity stocks before.
I've never seen commodity stocks as cheap as gold miners
are right now. These things are trading as if goals
at sixteen hundred, Okay, and they don't The earnings that
are coming out of these chat they're just they're unbelievable. Yeah,

(01:10:29):
And it's the most like we're not predicting a scenario, right.
I am telling you that when these guys announce earnings
three weeks from now, it's going to blow people's doors off.

Speaker 3 (01:10:40):
And I think they're in for a really big run.

Speaker 34 (01:10:45):
And the thing about it is is, and you and
I have talked about this before, the painful part of
this is nobody's looking, nobody's paying attention. All these people
are right in the index funds that have no exposure
to this stuff tech all, so many of these hot
tech stocks are looking crazier and crazier every single day.
In terms of the valuation, if people understood how to

(01:11:07):
value a traditional business, you would probably see sixty to
seventy percent less ownership of these tech names in favor
of these The amount of free cash flow, it's just
mind boggling. You're going to see you mark my words,
you will see gold, gold, and maybe silver producers this
year posting eighty eighty five percent, not all of them,

(01:11:29):
but you'll see eighty five percent margins for a gold miner.

Speaker 3 (01:11:34):
So what are they going to do. They're going to
buy back mountains of stock.

Speaker 34 (01:11:38):
They're going to issue special dividends. There's going to be
acquisitions in the sector at massive premiums. We're already starting
to see that happen. And it's just I've never seen
it so juicy and have less people looking at it.
It's really amazing.

Speaker 29 (01:11:52):
It is.

Speaker 2 (01:11:52):
It is Sam exactly Abrahm, Chief investment Officer, Board Capital.
You want to reach out to because you should get
that second opinion risk review. People want to get a hold.
What's the best thing they can do.

Speaker 34 (01:12:02):
Yeah, easiest way to do it is probably just Google
Know your Risk. Radio Board Capital Management one of the two.
You can listen to our podcast. We put out our
Daily Dots show every day. It's twenty to thirty minutes

(01:13:21):

Speaker 37 (01:13:22):
I think she hates him.

Speaker 38 (01:13:24):
Yeah, well yeah, okay, so we can all say that
that's a given. I also think that she wants to
take him out. She does not want to be the
first lady anymore.

Speaker 9 (01:13:34):
They're with you. She doesn't want to be the first Brady.

Speaker 38 (01:13:37):
She destroyed the Rose Garden. Who hates Christmas? Melanie or
Trump hates Christmas. She doesn't want to decorate for Christmas.
She doesn't want to.

Speaker 39 (01:13:45):
She doesn't.

Speaker 37 (01:13:46):
She doesn't want to sleep in the same room with him.

Speaker 3 (01:13:49):
She can't tolerate him. Legend and she doesn't. I don't
You don't know all this.

Speaker 20 (01:13:55):
That's I.

Speaker 3 (01:13:59):
Who else is frowns on TV? That's the view.

Speaker 2 (01:14:05):
I'm sitting there going so you're you're you're talking about
how his wife hates him. That is it's just Whoopies,
like you know, as much as our politics don't mesh, probably,
although I would say WHOOPI is probably a lot more

(01:14:26):
of a classic liberal than a lot of other people
that you see out there in Hollywood, even though she's got.

Speaker 3 (01:14:30):
Some wacky It is like, of course, the right wing
controls Hollywood.

Speaker 2 (01:14:33):
I thought it was the Jews with the space lasers
we'll get to that in the second settled down, just
out there, just like just yeah, she hates him, she
wants to take him out. Now, I will say one thing,
I don't think she ever wanted any part of the politics.
I don't think she ever wanted any part of the politics.
I don't think she ever wanted any part of all

(01:14:56):
of this stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:14:58):
That comes with it.

Speaker 2 (01:14:59):
And you can go back through history, by the way,
there are plenty of first ladies who wanted no part
of the politics, zero zilch. Not Truman's wife, Like she
held one press conference, She's like, I'm going home.

Speaker 12 (01:15:15):
This is it.

Speaker 3 (01:15:16):
I don't want to be here. This isn't my thing.

Speaker 2 (01:15:19):
And I think for her, she likes being a mom
and she wants to protect her kids. And you know,
but you just out there just like, yeah, hates his guts,
wants to take him out. And so I joked about
the space laser. And the reason for that is because
and this is the outrage world that we live in,
Marjorie Taylor Green like it gets on the front cover

(01:15:43):
of stuff because of course she says crazy stuff. Well
then you're giving her everything she wants. So the hurricane,
Now we have what two hundred and thirty some dead.
There's still plenty of people missing. All that stuff's going
on that you know, I mean, it is it is horrific.

Speaker 3 (01:15:57):
It is horrific. What is happening.

Speaker 2 (01:16:00):
Some of it happened in her state, of some of
the worst portions of this devastating flooding happened in her state,
and she she's tweeted out or xed.

Speaker 3 (01:16:12):
Out or whatever the hell you call it.

Speaker 2 (01:16:13):
Yes, they can control the weather. It's ridiculous for anyone
to lie and say it can't be done. And of
course everybody freaks out because that's what you do. It's
outrage culture. You have to outrage over the outrage of
the outcreak. It's no longer like, hey, look, here's the deal.
I've got better ideas, or I'm this or I'm that,
And it doesn't matter what you're talking about, whether it sports,

(01:16:34):
your take has to be hot, whether it is fashion
or music or television or whatever it is. It's got
to be way out there. If you don't vote for me,
it's the worst thing ever and the country will cease
to exist.

Speaker 3 (01:16:50):
I'm like, no, it's not true, it's not And you know,
it's just it's crazy. I and you know, you guys
listen to my show. I mean I'm different. I readily
admit that. Do I lean right?

Speaker 2 (01:17:08):
Of course, I'm an idiot. I call myself a conservatorian.
Do I have some ideas that would be considered classically liberal?

Speaker 31 (01:17:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:17:18):
But do I sit over there and say outrageous things.

Speaker 29 (01:17:21):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:17:21):
And let me tell you something. Saying outrageous things and
is so much easier than trying to have a normal conversation.
I mean I could just the stuff I could come
up with, is is It's so easy?

Speaker 6 (01:17:38):
It is.

Speaker 2 (01:17:38):
I mean, I've got friends in the business who are
sweet people, but they've never met a conspiracy.

Speaker 3 (01:17:43):
They didn't believe. They haven't they like Comala as an alien.
I knew it. I knew it.

Speaker 2 (01:17:51):
I knew it from the time I saw she was
a lizard, just like it's I have.

Speaker 3 (01:17:55):
And it's does it come from a good place for
some of these people.

Speaker 2 (01:18:00):
I think they genuinely believe this stuff, But so much
of it is you know, I mean, Anthony were talking
about it earlier, you know, and texting back and forth,
and he's just like, so that's a Mark Twain, you know, great,
great saying about his death. If you guys don't remember
that the reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

Speaker 3 (01:18:21):
Well, that's the world that we live in now. It's
outrage and it's no longer a situation.

Speaker 2 (01:18:30):
And this is the thing too, I think it's it's
a two parter in how we do things now.

Speaker 3 (01:18:37):
It is shock.

Speaker 2 (01:18:41):
It used to be just shock, and then you that
was it because people are like, oh they were talking
about now because of the well, the way that everybody
can communicate through social media and everything else, it's shock,
then outrage, and then you try to go over the
top of shock, and then you folly back with your
shock and then.

Speaker 3 (01:19:00):
Outrage back and forth. Who can outrage the best?

Speaker 2 (01:19:04):
Well, I can outread un rage you if you want,
I'll outrage the hell out of you, birh.

Speaker 3 (01:19:08):
It's just it is. It is silly. There's like real
stuff going on in the world, and I sometimes think
to myself, this is this is it here, this is that?

Speaker 2 (01:19:19):
But if this is the only way you can get
noticed nowadays, and that is so frustrating. The only way
that you can get noticed is to to either be
overly outraged at something or say something.

Speaker 3 (01:19:39):
Outrageous and shocking. Oh yeah, that's it. That's it.

Speaker 2 (01:19:45):
You can't do anything else. World's coming to an end
if you don't elect me.

Speaker 3 (01:19:52):
Which is.

Speaker 13 (01:19:54):
That?

Speaker 2 (01:19:54):
That just that's the thing I think that drives me crazy.
The most people a way say, well, what happens if
Trump leaves, I mean leaves, what happens if he wins?

Speaker 3 (01:20:02):
Then he wins. I know your life going to change.
I don't know, is it it's going to change any Oh,
that's right, Because if you hate him, you think he's
going to end the world.

Speaker 2 (01:20:13):
And if you love him and he doesn't win, you
think the world's going to end. Heads I win, tails,
you lose.

Speaker 3 (01:20:21):
Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four to twenty three.
Atch you had Benson.

Speaker 2 (01:20:24):
Show your Twitter, your Instagram, you could be outraged and
shocked with us. It's always fun. We can control the weather.
That's not true. Look, cloud seating has been around forever.

Speaker 12 (01:20:36):
In the day.

Speaker 3 (01:20:38):
They had fog dispersal.

Speaker 2 (01:20:42):
If you guys don't know what that, that's a method
they use like dry eyes to clear fog in certain areas.
And you know, and then of course you've what about
because the hurricanes. I've had several people say.

Speaker 3 (01:20:54):
You know this this is all red states. They just
this went straight hurricane and I'm like, I just want
to get this right.

Speaker 2 (01:21:02):
So you think because they're red states, which if we
can look at Georgia went for Biden and look at
what's happening in the midterms.

Speaker 3 (01:21:12):
So you're telling me.

Speaker 2 (01:21:15):
That the Biden administration's great idea to try to win
Georgia and North Carolina, a state that's also a swing state,
was to flood them. I'm not seeing the logic in it,
but if you could explain it to me, I'd be thrilled. Well,
they can control hurricanes. They've tried stuff, right, they have.

(01:21:41):
They tried stuff to weaken hurricanes. Trump wanted to drop
a nuclear bomb. He wasn't the first one that's talked
about that, by the way. But it's nature and as
you know and I know on this show, nature will
mess you up and nature is not beholden to man.

things that was trending that we didn't.

Speaker 3 (01:26:46):
Get to but we've touched on, is Tina Peters. She's
going to jail. I'm not a criminal.

Speaker 39 (01:26:52):
Former Mesa County clerk Tina Peters told the judge she
does not belong in prison. Judge Matthew Barrett said yes,
she does, for orchestra a security breach of her own
county election system as part of her claims that the
twenty twenty election was stolen.

Speaker 27 (01:27:06):
You are no hero.

Speaker 39 (01:27:06):
Peters has become popular among election deniers and on a podcast.

Speaker 26 (01:27:11):
You're a charlatan who used and is still using your
prior position in office to pedal a snake oil that's
been proven to be junk time and time again.

Speaker 39 (01:27:19):
Peters given nine years in prison.

Speaker 3 (01:27:22):
That's a long time. She's an election denier, aren't you one?
Chat no?

Speaker 2 (01:27:31):
Look, can I ask some questions about the way that
some things were run? Do I think that Joe Biden won.

Speaker 3 (01:27:38):
I think he did.

Speaker 30 (01:27:40):
Do.

Speaker 3 (01:27:41):
Some people inside of Maga world think I'm much for Eader, of.

Speaker 2 (01:27:45):
Course, just like when I say I think there was
some serious issues in the way that some of the
stuff was handled when it came to elections, widespread just
mailing out ballots randomly. There were issues. It wasn't perfect.
You have every right to ask questions. What she did

(01:28:05):
was above and beyond. Gave access to machines to people
who should not have had access. I mean she was
really a nutjob, and she bought into it. I mean
she did, you know, I mean the judge, you're paddling something.
It doesn't work, lady, it doesn't. And I go back

(01:28:26):
to this, the Summer of the Ninjas. I was there,
the Summer of the Ninjas, the cyber Ninjas, the conspiracy theories,
the kookiness, and when all was said and done, in
fairness to the cyber Ninjas, they're like, well, we checked,
seems to be pretty good. In fact, they undercounted. Joe Biden,

(01:28:49):
what we're paying you all this money to find the
thing counted?

Speaker 11 (01:28:54):
Again?

Speaker 2 (01:28:57):
Oh jeez, three two three, I have three eight twenty
four to twenty three at you had Benson show, to Twitter,
your Instagram.

Speaker 3 (01:29:04):
You know it's funny.

Speaker 2 (01:29:04):
I'm gonna get text messages now and I'm gonna get
tweets that call me an election tonier because how dare
you even say that there could have been a problem
in twenty twenty? And then I'll get other people go,
how dare you say it wasn't stolen?

Speaker 3 (01:29:22):
Because you know it was. You know what that makes
me think? I'm doing my job?

Speaker 2 (01:29:31):
Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four to twenty
three at you had Benson shoe to Twitter, your Instagram
or of the other things.

Speaker 3 (01:29:37):
Happy Friday. It's the Chad Benton's show, Son, Chad.

Speaker 1 (01:30:45):
Benson, Joe, Independent Thoughts, Independent Life. This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (01:31:10):
Every Friday at this time, we do a little thing
called sound Salad.

Speaker 12 (01:31:14):
What is that?

Speaker 2 (01:31:14):
Well, these are some of the stories that happened because
of the chaos, because of the craziness everything from the
strike and you know, at the ports, and then you've
got the horrors of what's taking place throughout the southeast
with you know, the remnants of Helene and all that insanity,
and then you've got the election that sometimes we just
miss stuff and we think to ourselves, you know what,

(01:31:35):
life is a lot more than just politics, chaos and craziness.
We should talk about it, and let's do it. Let's
start with the Wait, the WNBA. Yeah, the WNBA. Why
because Caitlin Clark controversial, not really actually one rookie of
the year. And there's an argument to be made that

(01:31:58):
she has transformed a lead in the way that very
few athletes ever have because she on a team sport,
got people who don't really care about sports, let alone
women's sports, interested paying attention talking when you look at
what she helped you off of the court, there's not

(01:32:19):
been another singular force like Caitlyn Clark in terms of
driving TV ratings and ticket sales.

Speaker 3 (01:32:24):
There's no comp for her in that regard.

Speaker 2 (01:32:26):
It's I mean, it's pretty damn amazing. Now I don't
watch women's basketball more regular basketball. For the most part,
the WNBA has been a joke. It has been a
tax right off for the NBA. It's always been that way. Then,
lo and behold, she lights up college for the last
two years. Women's college basketball is way bigger than the WNBA.

Speaker 3 (01:32:50):
The thought like I even.

Speaker 2 (01:32:51):
See it sometimes with you know, college players who go
to the NFL, they lose a bit of that luster.

Speaker 3 (01:32:57):
She didn't. She brought it with her, which pissed people
off because she's and she's a six. What's that mean?
Come on now, she's a Seven's note, she's a six.
Let's be fair. I'm a four.

Speaker 2 (01:33:08):
But Chad, you're being I'm kidding everybody, she's a six.
So she did change things though she brought people. Even
my wife talked about it, even my wife, even Jack
my son. People ask me, do you know any WNBA players.
I'm like Britney Griner because she was arrested in Russia,

(01:33:30):
Diana Tarassi, right, Sue Bird, like a few of them,
but only because they're on all this stuff on ESPN
as characters in their commercial or as a commenting on
other sports. And Candace Parker, obviously, you know, was big,
but he has a kid. Growing up, I knew there

(01:33:51):
was one female basketball player and that was Cheryl Miller
because I lived in southern.

Speaker 3 (01:33:56):
California and she scored one hundred points in the game
and she was Reggie Miller's sister. So yeah, she definitely
changed stuff. There ain't no doubt about that.

Speaker 2 (01:34:04):
We're doing a little sound salad here on this Friday.
We moved from there too. The Menendez brothers remember them.
There's a lot of pub about there right now because
there's a whole crazy thing on the old Netflix. But
could they be getting out?

Speaker 39 (01:34:17):
Los Angeles County DA George Gascon, who is in a
heated battle for re election, says he is evaluating new
evidence in the Menendez brothers case, including claims of sexual
abuse against their father, which could lead to Gascon asking
for the brothers to get a new sentence, no laurel
and aviation. Gascone says there is no question in his

(01:34:37):
mind that they did kill their parents. They are serving
life in prison, So could they be getting out? I
think there's a very good chance they might get out now.
There is no doubt they killed their parents. I don't
think there was ever a doubt. But even I remember,
this is one of the few you know, as now
we've got court TV. Back then we didn't have it,
and this was a massive story.

Speaker 2 (01:34:58):
I mean, this was a huge story, and I was
convinced their dad did some horrible thanks to them. Besides
mental and physical abuse, I was convinced that they were
sexually abused by Pops.

Speaker 8 (01:35:10):
The DA will either concede the habeas or joined us
asking for resentencing.

Speaker 3 (01:35:17):
So resentening seeing maybe it? Or do they just kick
them free?

Speaker 8 (01:35:21):
I think we're at a point now where any reasonable
person taking a look at this case believes they should
be out.

Speaker 2 (01:35:29):
Kim Kardashian does she's gone to law school. She hasn't
passed the bar. I don't think she's taken the bar.
She's gone law school. And I love a people like
she's stupid?

Speaker 31 (01:35:38):
Is she?

Speaker 2 (01:35:39):
She's worth like one point four billion dollars and uh,
that's pretty damn good.

Speaker 3 (01:35:46):
She's kind of crafted all of that on her own.
But it's through her looks. I don't care how you
do it. Would you care today?

Speaker 2 (01:35:53):
If they're like, all right, here's the deal, You're going
to be super successful, but it's gonna be only based
on your look, you're like.

Speaker 3 (01:35:58):
No, sorry, if it's not my brain, I'm not doing it.

Speaker 31 (01:36:00):
Shut up.

Speaker 2 (01:36:01):
It sounds solid on this Friday. This is a story
that is starting to make the rounds. And if you
haven't seen the video, it is crazy kid driving in
his car. All of a sudden, car takes off right.
You think, oh, one of these racing kids, not a
racing kid. Computer malfunctioned hit the gas away.

Speaker 27 (01:36:21):
He went there was a lot of factors in there
where things could have gone very wrong, very fast.

Speaker 13 (01:36:26):
It's been an incredible week for Minnesota State Troopers. Zach
Gruber expecting his first child and he just helped save
the life of a teenager in a runaway car.

Speaker 27 (01:36:36):
Right place, the right time kind of thing.

Speaker 13 (01:36:39):
Eighteen year old Sam Dutcher of Real, West Fargo was
near Harwood when his Honda Pilot just took off.

Speaker 3 (01:36:46):
Hey, this thing is accelerating. My foot is not on
the gas, Sam says.

Speaker 13 (01:36:52):
The car kept going faster and faster and faster and
faster and faster.

Speaker 3 (01:36:59):
And one the address of your emergency.

Speaker 13 (01:37:01):
They sent deputies and the Minnesota State Patrol.

Speaker 27 (01:37:05):
If you hit them brake, something happened.

Speaker 13 (01:37:07):
Clay County Deputy Zach Johnson, racing to Clay County, got
Sam on the phone. As Sam approached US Highway seventy
five north of morehead.

Speaker 28 (01:37:17):
Is.

Speaker 39 (01:37:17):
The accelerators like accelerators stuck down.

Speaker 13 (01:37:20):
Sam then crossed busy State Highway nine going over ninety.
He was trying everything.

Speaker 3 (01:37:26):
Are you able to push that e brak and just
lock them up? Think about that terrified, you can't stop it.

Speaker 26 (01:37:31):
This.

Speaker 3 (01:37:32):
You have no control over anything that's going on. So
it's like a movie.

Speaker 37 (01:37:35):
Dude, do do do Do Do Do Do Do doo
doo doo doo.

Speaker 3 (01:37:38):
And now you're heading towards a little town. And in
the little town, what do they have?

Speaker 2 (01:37:42):
They got a couple traffic lights. You got to get
ahead of it. They're doing everything they possibly can. They
also have a train potentially coming.

Speaker 31 (01:37:50):
Yeah, what do you have left on your gas?

Speaker 3 (01:37:52):
I was going a lot faster than we thought it was. No, no,
we're going to put some stopsticks out in front of you.

Speaker 20 (01:37:58):
Of course that the tires get up.

Speaker 9 (01:38:00):
We have officers from all over and medical all coming
to him.

Speaker 3 (01:38:05):
Okay, Sam was going too fast. There wasn't time.

Speaker 13 (01:38:08):
But things got scary as they approached the small Clay
County town of.

Speaker 3 (01:38:13):
Hit or it All.

Speaker 27 (01:38:13):
The intersection on thirty two is uncontrolled going north and south,
so kind of at that point, my plan was just
to get up there and get that intersection block so
we don't have cars coming through at or when that
vehicle is coming through at one hundred and thirteen.

Speaker 13 (01:38:27):
In a frightening split second, break doesn't do anything.

Speaker 24 (01:38:32):
But.

Speaker 3 (01:38:34):
Dude has to go for it. We got to say
this kid, my mind's starting to go I'm going to
ty tonight.

Speaker 1 (01:38:40):
Really honestly, I was like, my kid's probably dead.

Speaker 3 (01:38:44):
But I was like, God, please don't kill my kids,
Please don't.

Speaker 11 (01:38:48):
Yeah, we'll try to get in front of me. Had
a little any break power.

Speaker 27 (01:38:51):
I believe it was actually Deputy Johnson again said hey,
this road teas in three to four miles. So at
that point it was kind of all right, we need
to obviously we need to get this thing stopped.

Speaker 3 (01:39:01):
And he went for it. Very exciting. So think about this, kids, Fine,
what are you gonna do? What do you do best? Best?

Speaker 31 (01:39:07):
Oh?

Speaker 29 (01:39:07):
My god?

Speaker 3 (01:39:07):
Stop?

Speaker 13 (01:39:08):
With little time left before the highway dead ended, the
trooper got around Sam.

Speaker 27 (01:39:13):
Probably one hundred and thirty and old squad and top
solid around one hundred and forty, so probably somewhere in
that range.

Speaker 1 (01:39:20):
Yes, running to the back of his car, the pull them.

Speaker 13 (01:39:26):
After twenty minutes of sheer tear, the car stopped.

Speaker 3 (01:39:30):
Sam was saved.

Speaker 4 (01:39:32):
It hit me then.

Speaker 3 (01:39:37):
This really just happened.

Speaker 22 (01:39:39):
I was.

Speaker 3 (01:39:42):
At that point I started to freak out, and you're
in the moment adrenaline is pumping.

Speaker 2 (01:39:47):

gets right in front of him. They slow it down

Speaker 3 (01:41:50):
I would like Democrats and Republicans to both reject censorship.
You can't yell fire in a crowded theater. That's the test.

Federal relief and assistance that we have been providing has
included a FEMA providing seven hundred and fifty dollars.

Speaker 1 (01:42:38):
FEMA can't through seven hundred and fifty dollars.

Speaker 31 (01:42:41):
Oh, you big fun spend them.

motor rolling more wound Again, It's fine the Fed.

Speaker 18 (01:42:59):
The one hundred sixty five page filings an effort by
prosecutors to keep the January sixth case against Trump alive.

Speaker 23 (01:43:05):
But the allegations here really relate to Trump's private acts
as a candidate for office, and he really had nothing
to do with what he was doing officially as president
of the United States.

Speaker 24 (01:43:15):
Now it is out the cats out of the bag.
He can't try to appeal or keep it from being there,
so it has an immediate impact as a sort of
an October surprise in the election.

Speaker 20 (01:43:25):
He's a deranged person. I call him deranged Jack Smith.

Speaker 9 (01:43:31):
I'm a.

Speaker 25 (01:43:42):
Machines don't have a family theme. Machines aren't antacts. Machines
aren't spending money in our community, long beach.

Speaker 11 (01:43:49):
If I have a terminal, automated cranes run by themselves,
the trucks run by themselves, ship unloads by itself, the
ship loads by itself.

Speaker 19 (01:43:58):
But we are never going to and we're never going
to apologize the robots.

Speaker 9 (01:44:02):
Taking all work.

Speaker 14 (01:44:03):
Okay, guys, we got to get off the roof.

Speaker 3 (01:44:05):
These are coming down right next to us here.

Speaker 26 (01:44:07):
Today Ron launched nearly two hundred ballistic missiles towards targets
in Israel.

Speaker 31 (01:44:11):
Any of you thought I had the bar boar earlier
this year.

Speaker 3 (01:44:14):
That's why the restoration of roversus.

Speaker 11 (01:44:16):
Wait.

Speaker 3 (01:44:16):
And I'm a knucklehead at times, Yes you are. Man,
what a hell of a week?

Speaker 31 (01:44:21):
Am I?

Speaker 3 (01:44:21):
Right? And the ports, which, of course yesterday we talked
about everybody run outs.

Speaker 2 (01:44:26):
I got to buy toilet paper. I'm like, how much
crap do we do in America? We do a lot
of crap in apparently in America. But they got a
tentative deals.

Speaker 3 (01:44:35):
It's interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:44:36):
It's a short term deal while we negotiate all the stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:44:41):
This sweetened deal from the Maritime Alliance did come after
some public pressure from the Biden administration and the President
himself asking these shipping companies to share their profits, to
put forward a contract that would offer those higher wages.

Speaker 2 (01:44:54):
And by the way, the profits they make, the shipping
profits are massive. Especially during COVID it was huge. There's
massive amounts of profit. It's a global thing too. It's
not just though they're only doing it here. It is
a global thing. I will say this though. The automation thing,
which you heard many of them say, it's I don't
want the hundred dollars an hour, I want no robots.

Speaker 4 (01:45:17):
The other huge sticking point is over the use of
automated machinery, and frankly, this tentative agreement does not seem
to address that. The union has been concerned about how
machines like automated cranes could take over their jobs, and
they really see this as an existential question. They want
protections built into their contract that would guarantee that shipping

(01:45:39):
companies wouldn't just buy employ machinery instead of them.

Speaker 3 (01:45:43):
You know, somebody, my.

Speaker 2 (01:45:44):
Buddy Phil text the show all the time said you
know where does where does it end? And I said,
for the average person, when it hits their industry, that's
when it ends. I mean, we've talked about automation a
lot here. I will tell you when you talk to
people who do this for a living, when they look
at like the ports and there are people out there, professors,
this is what they study, the logistics of shipping. The

(01:46:05):
professor from UCLA said, we're decades behind, not months or
a year or two. We're decades behind the rest of
the world. They have less space in their ports and
they can hold and do more things because of automation.
Does make you think it does? Hey, guess what that
brings us to this?

Speaker 20 (01:46:23):
And then I go and spoil it all by saying
something stupid.

Speaker 3 (01:46:27):
We'll take stupid pills this morning.

Speaker 13 (01:46:29):
It's the honest ones you want to watch out for
because you can never predict.

Speaker 37 (01:46:33):
They're gonna do something incredibly stupid.

Speaker 3 (01:46:37):
Now you're the fat, stupid one with the big mouth.

Speaker 1 (01:46:40):
Is stupid time.

Speaker 3 (01:46:43):
You should never underestimate the predictability of stupiditing. Now it's
time fall stupid information. You know, we talk about the
guy who runs the union, that dagged guy and he
says like he's straight out of the mob.

Speaker 2 (01:46:59):
But the mob the docks, they go together, there's no
doubt about that. And they've also been a part of history,
the mob and dock workers. Let's go back to World
War II Operation Underworld. You see, in the early days
of the war February ninth, nineteen forty two, we had
to figure out how to get troops across the ocean.

(01:47:19):
The SS Normandy was going to be one of those things.
It's a massive French luxury liner. It was being converted
into a troop transport for the war efforts. What happened
caught fire, burned down Nazi sabateurs, probably on the docks.
In fact, thirty three German agents in the Duquane spiring

(01:47:41):
were arrested earlier in the months leading up to this.

Speaker 3 (01:47:44):
So what happened. They needed to figure out what to do.
But the docks they're run by de mob.

Speaker 2 (01:47:51):
So a guy by the name of at the Fulton
Fish Market, manned by the name of Joseph sochs Lonza.
They went to him and they recruited him and he said,
but yeah, I'll help you out right, like we'll do
what I can. He gave Union cards to agents operating
undercover in the market.

Speaker 3 (01:48:07):
But here's the thing. They won't get anywhere right. They're not.

Speaker 2 (01:48:11):
They didn't trust them. And he said, look, if you
really want to do this, you gotta do it right.
Lucky Luciano, but he's in jail doing like fifty years.
He's still in twenty to forty years left on his
his sentence. He said, no, you need him, so they
went to him.

Speaker 3 (01:48:25):
Now Lucky could not stand the likes of Mussolini, and
the Nazis said, I'll help you, but you're going to
have to help me out.

Speaker 2 (01:48:34):
They said, we'll see what you can do. There was
never another issue on the docks. On top of that,
there were issues in Italy as they get ready for
the invasion, and well Luciano hated Mussolini. He made sure
that they did everything they could on the other side
to make sure these guys landed got ready for the

(01:48:57):
invasion in Sicily not bad.

Speaker 11 (01:49:00):
Huh.

Speaker 2 (01:49:00):
What did Luciano get out of it? The man who
eventually put him behind bars had become Governor, Thomas E.

Speaker 3 (01:49:06):
Dewey, and he pardoned him and then ordered him out
of there, and he was deported back to his native Italy.
Now you know something you didn't know. You guys have
a blessed and amazing weekend. We'll do it again on Monday.
As always, Night night Jack.

Speaker 7 (01:49:25):
This is the Chad Benson Show.
