Speaker 1 (00:11):
The Chat Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
It was a big interview, sixty minutes. I remember it's
a kid watching that Sunday nights. My parents would watch it.
Looking back, I'm like, why are you guys watching this?
But that being said, there she was sitting down for
an interview Madame Vice President Kamala Harris. Gonna be grilled,

(00:35):
gonna be put to the test, Gonna actually have follow
up questions, which, if you listen to this program, you
know follow up questions are the things where truly you
get the answers that people are looking for. Because if
you throw one out there and they give you a
half ass answer and you move on, well, then mission

(00:56):
accomplished by the person who gave you the half ass answer.
A true sign of trying to get to the meat
on the bone, if you will, is being able to
continue at it. And you see that with Donald Trump.
They come after Donald Trump. They'll ask question after question
over and over again about a specific with her. They've
been kind of how they do.

Speaker 3 (01:15):
Let me tell you what your critics and the columnists say.

Speaker 4 (01:18):
Okay, they say that the reason so many voters don't
know you is that you have changed your position on
so many things.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
You are against fracking, now you're for it.

Speaker 4 (01:29):
Supported looser immigration policies, now you're tightening them up.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
You're for medicare for all, now you're not.

Speaker 4 (01:36):
People don't truly know what you believe or what you
stand for.

Speaker 5 (01:41):
In the last four years, I have been Vice President
of the United States, and I have been traveling our country,
and I have been listening to folks. We are diverse
people geographically regionally in terms of where we are in
our backgrounds, and what the American people do want is
that we have leaders who can build consensus to find

(02:01):
common sense solutions.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
And that has been my approach. What the hell are
you talking about? That is just once I wish somebody go,
you know, that's a bunch of hogwashed. Why don't you
tell us actually what you think? All right? Just tell
us the look you started? Fine, right, you started with like, Look,
I've been traveling the country. A lot of my beliefs

(02:24):
come from California, Progressive. I live a different life than
most people. But I've been traveling the country and I've
met a diverse group of people. I've met Republicans, Democrats,
people who can't stand politics, people who can't stand me.
I have gone all over the country, and I realized
that some of the things that I want to do
the unintended consequences, both for our country and for the
people it would hurt. So I've had to reevaluate my

(02:49):
positions with a lot of these things. It doesn't mean
I still don't believe that we shouldn't be heading in
some of these directions, but there are better ways to
do it. It's not that hard. It isn't. Let's move on
to the economy, and.

Speaker 4 (03:01):
There are lots of signs that the American economy is
doing very well, but the American people don't seem to
be feeling it. Groceries for twenty five percent higher. People
are blaming you.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
Are they wrong?

Speaker 5 (03:15):
We now have historic low unemployment in America, We now
have an economy that is thriving by all macroeconomic measures.
Prices are still too high and we need to deal
with it, which is why part of my plan.

Speaker 6 (03:28):
You mentioned groceries.

Speaker 5 (03:29):
Part of my plan is what we must do to
bring down the price of groceries.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
Okay, what's the plan. We're going to just bring them down?
What that's what we're doing. It's just part of the plan.
It's just to bring them down. It's just gonna We're
gonna bring him down. Was it a dazzling interview. We're
going to play more of it throughout because I want
to get the thing that matters most, which was the
immigration side of it. Because we can sit here and

(03:55):
talk about groceries. We all know about groceries. We can
sit here and talk about the word salad. We all
know about that. There's only so much And I've said
this now others out there may argue, but there's only
so much that the federal government is going to do
when it comes to things like the economy. Can they

(04:15):
hurt it?

Speaker 3 (04:16):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (04:17):
Can they hamper it at times? Absolutely? Can they help
it along a little bit? Do they get too much credit?

Speaker 7 (04:22):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (04:23):
But one of the big things, and maybe the biggest
thing that they do besides war, is helping people during hurricanes.
We'll get to that in a minute. Immigration. That is
like when you look, it's like that's the thing, right, immigration, emigration,
you do the immigration thing. That's your jam, right, there's immigration.
Like a states want to do immigration. They can't do immigration.

(04:45):
You can't do immigrations, Greg Grabbit, Doug Doocy, when you
were a governor, no chance DeSantis. You've got nothing going
on when it comes to immigration. So immigration is a
big deal. What's up with immigration?

Speaker 4 (04:57):
I've been covering the border for years and so I
know this is not a problem that started with your administration,
But there was an historic flood of undocumented immigrants coming
across the border the first three years of your administration.
As a matter of fact, arrivals quadrupled from the last

(05:18):
year of President Trump. Was it a mistake to loosen
the immigration policies as much as you did.

Speaker 5 (05:25):
It's a long standing problem, and solutions are at hand,
and from day one, literally we have been offering solutions.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
Okay, day one. Those solutions from day one seem to
be anybody who wants to come here, can that seems
to be the solution, which doesn't seem like a solution
for the American people. That seems like hmm, other things.

Speaker 4 (05:48):
What I was asking was, was it a mistake to
kind of allow that flood to happen in the first place.

Speaker 5 (05:55):
I say, the policies that we have been proposing are
about fixing a problem, not promoting a problem.

Speaker 3 (06:01):
Okay, but the numbers did quadruple.

Speaker 5 (06:04):
And the numbers today because of what we have done.
We have cut the flow of illegal immigration by half,
which we have cut the sentinel by half. But we
need Congress to be able to act to actually fix
the problem.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
Okay, there, she's right. Congress needs to be a part
of this, and they have failed over and over again.
For somewhere along the line, Congress decided in the co
equal branches it wanted to be third, with the Supreme
Court and the presidency battling to be number one. Weren't
They're not even happy at being second like that, We'll
be third. We're fine here, We're good with this. Congress

(06:43):
does need to act. That being said, you've allowed this
to go on. You can blame Congress, and you could
say that all the numbers have been cut down. We
have talked about the fact those numbers are not down
the way now that you're calculating things with the CBP
APP and all this kind of stuff, and where you're
flying them into rather than coming across certain ports, that's
how you counting it. That's not the same.

Speaker 4 (07:03):
Recently visited the southern border and embraced President Biden's recent
crackdown on asylum seekers, and that crackdown produced an almost
immediate and dramatic decrease in the number of border crossings.
If that's the right answer, now, why didn't your administration

(07:24):
take those steps?

Speaker 3 (07:25):
In twenty twenty one.

Speaker 5 (07:27):
The first bill we proposed to Congress was to fix
our broken immigration system, knowing that if you want to
actually fix it, we need Congress to act. It was
not taken up.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
It was not taken up. Let's go over that, shall we.
President Biden's first immigration bill was the US Citizenship Act
of twenty twenty one. The bill was introduced on March eighteen,
twenty twenty one. The legislation aimed to provide a pathway
to citizenship for undocumented immigrants in the United States. What

(08:00):
you mean to tell me your first bill they didn't
act on that was so solid called let's give everybody
everything they wanted who came here illegally bill bill. Yeah,
that didn't work the way you thought it was going
to work. No, immigration's a failure. We you talk about economics,
we talk about a lot of the other stuff, but
the immigration side of thing is the thing that is

(08:20):
the anchor right now currently around her neck. And inflation.
Some of you may have immigration first, inflation second. Some
of you may have inflation first. Immigration second. But don't
tell me your goal was to stop illegal immigration by
giving people who broke the law permanent status followed by citizenship,

(08:46):
and that somehow was going to do it. That's like
telling the fat kid, look, you stole all the donuts
and ate them, and as a punishment, here's some more
donuts and feel free to eat more.

Speaker 8 (08:59):
What.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
Yeah, I don't think that's a recipe for success. We'll
have more about these riveting interviews coming up in a
little while, also going to look at the horrific storm
storm of the century, potentially with Milton getting ready to
crash into Florida. What scares you? Sports? Your programs brought
to you by Better Help. I'll tell you this right now.

Speaker 9 (10:53):
With this storm, the landfall could be with the eyewall
right along the Bay Saint Pete kind of peninsula that
comes down the extremely susceptible, extremely low lying areas and
they haven't had it. We haven't seen this orientation where
that front right quadrant comes right into Tampa Bay. It's

(11:15):
a nightmare scenario.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
It is a nightmare scenario. And I think that may
be an understatement. I mean, we always talk about how
bad things are if, and the if side of it
is does it hold up steam? Does it continue to
move in a way where it doesn't lose power? Because
right now, I mean they're talking about it it could

(11:37):
be a six. We don't even have that. We're gonna
have to make it up. It's gonna be a six
one hundred and eighty miles an hour. Well, as it approaches,
does it drop down? Because yesterday they said, look it's
a category five, but by the time it hits it
maybe a category three. Okay, So if it stays a
category four or five, is it brutal? Is it the
storm of the century?

Speaker 10 (11:55):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (11:55):
You bet your candy ass, it may very well be.

Speaker 11 (11:57):
We want to begin with hurricane specialist John Morales.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
John, now that and by the way, this is John Morales.
It's the guy who's watching all this going on. He's
a hurricane specialist. And now you got that job. Congratulations,
he's very emotional.

Speaker 12 (12:12):
Okay, we want to begin with hurricane specialist John Morales. John, Now,
this monster of a hurricane is a Category five.

Speaker 10 (12:19):
Yes, that news just came out right now, and it
certainly it's just an incredible, incredible, incredible hurricane. It has dropped.
He has dropped fifty millibars in ten hours. I apologize.
This is just horrific.

Speaker 2 (12:39):
He's upset. You can see he's very emotional about this.
He understands what is going on. The fifty millibars it's dropping.
He sees that this thing is going to be a
beast and it's going to smash right into Tampa Bay.
There may be no more bay really, now that's going
to be a bay. But is it going to be
a nightmare? Are people going to die? Are there going

(13:01):
to be horrific destruction of much of what is going
on as far as homes, businesses, things of that nature. Yeah,
that's going to happen. Kids. That thing's coming if it
stays in its current path and at its current strength.

Speaker 10 (13:20):
Maximum sustained winds are one hundred and sixty miles per hour.
It is just gaining strength in the Gulf of Mexico,
where you can imagine the winds.

Speaker 7 (13:30):
I mean, the seas are just so.

Speaker 10 (13:32):
Incredibly incredibly hot, a record hot, as you might imagine.
You know what's driving that? I don't need to tell
you global warming, climate change leading to this and becoming an.

Speaker 7 (13:42):
Increasing threat for the Yucatan.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
Okay, we didn't need to go into that there. You
didn't need to go into what's driving this is? This
is what it is. So Chad, are you saying that
there is not global warm? I'm not saying that there's
not global warm. I'm saying if we go we should.
Here's the thing. I don't want to get into the
politics of this right now, because that's what everybody wants
to do. Let's get into the politics of it all.

(14:08):
There's eight billion of us. Are we going to have
an effect on the planet? Absolutely? Should we look at
the planet as a whole? Or are we only going
to start it at a certain time? And remember, I'm
a gen xer, so as a kid growing up, I
was terrified of global cooling and the coming ice age.
So that was a swing and a miss on that.
Now this is the mayor of Tampa. She is telling

(14:31):
everybody you better get the f out of here.

Speaker 11 (14:33):
What is your number one message to Tampa residents tonight.

Speaker 13 (14:37):
The number one message, as it has been for several
days now, is that you need to prepare, do whatever
you need to do, and then get out of the
evacuation zone. And as we all have heard so many
times now, you hide from the wind and run from
the water. And we are talking about right now, the

(14:59):
possibility of a direct hit would tend to twelve foot
title surge.

Speaker 7 (15:04):
Put that in perspective.

Speaker 13 (15:05):
Hurricane Helene, which just left the Tampa Bay area, there
was six foot storm surge, So.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
Double the storm surge. It's going to get into some
of the low lying areas. And this is the warning
for everybody if you decide to stay.

Speaker 14 (15:23):
What would you say to people tonight who are saying,
you know what, I'm going to ride this out.

Speaker 15 (15:27):
I've written others out. What would you say to people
who aren't hating those evacuation orders.

Speaker 13 (15:32):
Well, I can tell you right now that they may
have done that in others. There's never been one like this,
and this Helene was a wake up call. This is
literally catastrophic. And I can say, without any dramatization whatsoever,
if you choose to stay in one of those evacuation

(15:53):
areas You're.

Speaker 3 (15:54):
Going to die.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
That's a little dramatic, But is that a possibility? One
hundred percent? If you stay in some of those area
is it possible you may die? Correct, it is possible.
They're saying. If you decide to stay, write your name
on your body just in case. Oh, it is that bad? Potentially, Now,

(16:16):
you never know what nature. Nature may do what nature
tends to do sometimes, which is surprise everybody by deciding
we're gonna slow down, We're gonna not move in the
path that you think we're gonna move. We decided we're
gonna turn this direction. Is that possible? All of those
things are possible. It's also possible it crashes into the
Tampa and absolutely runs rough shot on it and several

(16:38):
people over the last you know, because we start talking
about this yesterday chimed in and said, you know, talk
about stuff like this. How many times have we seen
hurricanes like this? And what ends up happening? It doesn't
really come. I know that happens. That's why people stick
it out. But I always remind everybody, is she hit
one of these lives? And if you're playing the it's

(16:59):
the boy called the Wolf You guys have said this
so many times. I always remind everybody if you listen
to the story, the fing wolf shows up. So there's
the fact three two, three, five, three, twenty four, twenty
three at Chad Benson Shows, your Twitter, your Instagram, all
the things, A lot of stuff to get to. More
on last night's interview palooza. So you had Walls, you

(17:20):
had Harris, and he had Elo said some interesting things
as well. We'll talk a bit about that. A lot
of other stuff to get to. If you're missing the show,
shame grab the podcast. It is the Chat Benson Show.

Speaker 8 (17:37):
Son, Chad Benson Show, The.

Speaker 1 (17:58):
Chat Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
You remember the trade we made last year? Was it
two years ago? Maybe we got back Brittany Griner for
Victor Boot the Merchant of Death. He's selling arms against
I know shocker, right, who's he selling him to? Well,
I don't know Hamas and anybody else throughout the Middle East.
He would like to kill Jews. He's running a special.

(18:25):
I don't think that was a great trade. No, she
didn't have a great year anyways. I don't know if
she did not. Isn't Caitlin Clark the only one who
plays basketball now? You're being sexist, probably, but I just
wanted to let you guys know the minute he got out,
you knew he was going to go sell stuff, and
he has. He's back in business. As the kids would say,

(18:48):
the guy is starting to really throw around the dollar bills.

Speaker 8 (18:52):
Yo.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
I don't think that's exactly what the kids would say.
There was an interview last night sixty Minutes and Trump
did not show up. We'll get deeper into that. I
thought he failed in that aspect. I think he should
have shown up. And he's come out and he's you
know that they've said, well, it's this or it's that
you make it. He wanted an apology, he wanted this,

(19:16):
he wanted that show up. And the reason and I
contend to continue to say this. One of the thing
about sixty Minutes is while there are other outlets that
make it bigger numbers, and I'm talking about you can
go on out media's you know, it's so fragmented, but
you can go somewhere and you know, whether it's Rogan,

(19:37):
I mean we're talking yesterday called her Daddy. The reality
is that thing gets massive numbers, second biggest podcast on
the planet, by the way, while all of those things
are true. One thing about sixty Minutes that separates it
in my my belief is the people that watch sixty

(19:57):
minutes tend to be a little bit older, and they
tend to be absolute voters. They're voting, They're gonna go
to the polls. They're voting. This is not you know,
somebody watching call her daddy and doesn't really care about voting.
This is not that these viewers, for the most part,

(20:18):
are going to go to the polls and vote. Now,
could he make an argument? Look, I'm gonna go on there.
They're gonna blast me. They're going to fact check every
word I say, and even when it turns out to
be true somewhere down the line, and this is one
of the big things he wants to talk about, is
you know what happened with the Hunter Biden thing. What's
gonna end up happening is by the time that they
decide hope that was true, it's too late. I can
make that argument. I think he could do, But you

(20:40):
should have gone, that's my belief, and you decided not to.
Yesterday we talked about something changing minds.

Speaker 16 (20:46):
Remember this, Why is it so hard to change someone's mindless?

Speaker 2 (20:51):
And she goes into you know, rewiring the brain. You
believe the first thing you hear, that's the you know,
anchor belief things of that nature. And then we got
into this last.

Speaker 16 (20:59):
And perhaps more psychological component of that is that our
ideas tend to be tethered to our identity, and the
brain really doesn't like threats to identity. Your sense of
self involves so many different structures, memories, processes in the brain.
To rewrite that would be very complicated, and in the
daily struggle for survival, potentially fatal.

Speaker 2 (21:23):
Absolutely it's potentially fatal. And that's back in the day
when you know, the tribe was very important. The tribe
would literally keep you alive. And I bring this up
because you know, I tweeted out last night the ridiculousness
of the conspiracy theories around Hurricane Hilly, and several people
chined in basically tell me what an idiot and a
hole I was, because I just don't understand because last

(21:45):
week I made fun of Marjorie Tailer Green saying they
control the weather. Still, by the way, I've gotten no
no confirmation on who they are. Some people, when it
comes to Marjor Retailer Green, think it's the Jews with
their Jewish space lasers and another individual last night. He
was very nice by the way, you know, because some
of you are I'm gonna be honest, could be dicks

(22:07):
talked about. You know, have you seen this? Have you
seen this? Now? I have said over and over again,
we have tried since just after World War Two to
figure out how control the weather. We tried to do
a lot of different things when it came to the weather.
The difference between taking clouds, seating them, and then doing
certain things to them that may cause them to produce

(22:28):
in some cases copious amounts of water is one thing.
Controlling the weather as far as no clouds know anything,
we're gonna make a hurricane? Yeah, we're not there. Could
we be there one day? Well, Chad, you're wrong. Yeah,
I know. And I the first one to admit sometimes

(22:50):
I make mistakes, and we can control the weather because
we have something that nobody else has. Because I can
control the weather, they call me stone.

Speaker 17 (22:58):
Nay so right, come on to rainfall under liked me
Hi Suthern the full.

Speaker 2 (23:08):
Sta oh shad. Now you're just making fun of people. No,
I have said, there's no doubt that we would love
to control the weather. There's no doubt. And you go
back and everybody spent you know, they've sent me this
over and over again.

Speaker 18 (23:26):
You know.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
Uh, you know Mitchukaku, the scientist talking about I think
he was on CBS Morning back in the day when
they had Charlie Rose. You'll hear him briefly. But if
you guys don't know Charlie Rose is he got a
lot of trouble talking about you know, laser beams and
laser particles and weather. I mean lasers, naylors to change

(23:47):
the weather. That's right.

Speaker 19 (23:48):
Well, as Mark Twain once famously said, everyone complains about
the weather, but no one ever does anything about it. Well,
instead of doing a rain dance, we physicists are firing
trillion one lasers into the sky to actually precipitate rain
clouds and actually bring down lightning bolts. This is potentially
a game changer, but this is experimental. It's experimental, however,

(24:11):
in the laboratory so far it works. When you have
water vapor and you have dust particles or ice crystals,
you can precipitate rain. It condenses around the seeds. These
seeds can also be created by laser beams by firing
trillion watt lasers. You rip apart the electrons, creating what
are called ions, and these ions act like seeds, like
dust particles, bringing down rain and even lightning.

Speaker 2 (24:35):
There you go. So we can control the weather. We
can add to certain things. But the way that these
things are presented is fact we can control storms, can
we because if we can really control storms, we're the
most unstoppable thing in history. We've become modern gods, we

(24:55):
have and this want to be part of a conspirac
and it's you know, it's a conspiracy till it's not. Okay.
Would I like us to be able to control the weather. Yes,
then we wouldn't have to hear about the people bitch
about climate change. I think we're all in agreement of that.
And then when that happens, people are like, well, you
took it away from nature, didn't you. That's the way
they'll they'll focus on that. The reality is we've messed

(25:21):
with it, but we've never figured out how to harness it.
Sending me tweets about look at this plane flying in
this magical pattern doing thing. It's what it does is
it takes away from the fact that there are people
on the ground who are hearing some of this stuff
and they feel like there it's this or it's that,

(25:43):
And there are people on the ground who aren't anywhere
near this, who are reporting on things that they're hearing
from other people. That becomes a rumor mill, when in truth,
none of that's real. Look, if you want to bust
femous balls for being awful, oh you can. They are
not set up in a right way to deal with
a lot of this crap. The problem is too much

(26:04):
bscot in the middle of it all. And it became
more about the politics and the conspiracy about voting. And
I've already started to hear that about Tampa. Way here
we go. These people aren't going to be allowed to vote.
And you know what that means Trump's going to lose. Now,
what that's going to mean at this moment in time
is there's a chance, a real chance that many people

(26:24):
are going to lose their lives. God willing that doesn't happen.
That if the thing hits Tampa head on at the
current pace with what is going on, that it is
going to destroy people's lives. That's the insanity out there
that frustrates me, because there are real issues when you

(26:45):
look at FEMA and the way that they've handled things
that we can talk about. There are real issues out
there with the way that we're seeing a clash between
the local and the federal. There are real issues out

Speaker 18 (28:51):
Help, I'm trapped in a hashtag factory and I can't
get out the chat Benson Show.

Speaker 21 (28:56):
Well, I'm sure everyone has known someone like viewers. Sheryl
Down's mother. She lived in ninety seven years old, and
Cheryl says that she loved beer, ice cream and cookies
until the very end. So, Cheryl and many of you
want to know this, when it comes to living a
long life, how much of it really does come down
to your genes versus lifestyle. Researchers estimate that genetics have

(29:18):
around a twenty percent influence on our longevity.

Speaker 2 (29:21):
Okay, twenty percent, that's pretty good. Why does it matter, Well,
there's a bunch of new studies out over the last
twenty four hours that are coming out. Have we hit
the limits of life? Have we said all right, this
is as good as it's going to get. Research examines
how life expectancy at birth has changed from nineteen ninety
twenty nineteen in a number of countries including Ours, Australia, France,

(29:46):
South Korea, Sweden and others. So what they found is
life expectancy continues to creep up, but the rate which
is doing as far as the going up, is slowing down,
oldest person in the world has lived into the one
hundred and tens and twenties. Some people said, look, that's
not a reality. Now. It depends right because there are

(30:08):
other people out there. No, no, no, out Look, here's the thing.
We're finding new stuff every single day. You're putting limits
on what we're going to find in the future that
we don't even know about. So you can't tell us
that this is going to be a situation where it is.
This eighty seven is now going to be the new average.

(30:29):
So if you're alive today, eighty seven, ninety if you're
a woman, eighty four if you're a man. So this
is one of the things they talk about though, is
the fact that they are coming up with new stuff
every single day. But jeans does play a role in it,
doctor Gupta continue.

Speaker 21 (30:44):
So the good news is this, even if you haven't
won the genetic lottery, there are still plenty of things
that are within your control that can lead to a
longer and healthier life. By adding healthy habits like exercise,
especially weight resistance exercise, no smoking, a good night's sleep,
eating a healthy diet, you can significantly mitigate your genetic

(31:05):
risk for early death.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
That's a good thing. It's very much a good thing. Wow,
are you kidding me? Eating a little bit healthier, working
out a little bit more. Not smoking, that's a big one.
By the way. Not drinking too much. I'm sure drinking
is part of it. Not drinking too much. It's cold.
Are you ready for this? Having will power? Yes, just

(31:29):
a little willpawer, not a lot, just a little now.

Speaker 21 (31:31):
Going back to Cheryl's mother, lifestyle factors are especially crucial
in the first seven to eight decades of your life,
but scientists believe that genetics do tend to take on
a larger role after that in later life. So that's
what may have been protective for her. Despite the beer,
ice cream and cookies.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
Despite that, And one of the other things is modern medicine.
Are we finding things that are helping us when it
comes to longevity? Is there a magic pill?

Speaker 22 (32:03):
Are these little pills the fountain of youth? It's called
wrap amcin. Robert Berger takes the drug.

Speaker 11 (32:10):
How old are you, Robert, I'm sixty nine. You look
good for sixty nine.

Speaker 22 (32:14):
How long have you been taking this drug?

Speaker 23 (32:15):
Since March? It looks like my gums and which I've
had problems with my whole life have improved.

Speaker 22 (32:22):
He says he has more energy and hopes it will
extend his life. Rap Amcin is used by transplant patients
to keep organs from being rejected. It's been around for
fifty years, but now researchers are excited about another potential
use to stop the aging clock.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
That's pretty interesting. So wrapam iin. It's not super expensive
that generic versions out there, and they're looking at could
this be something. It's the little things, right, the little
things they find They go, hey, check this out, this
thing works. I always go back to how did they
come up with the ed medicine because you never know,
well ed medicine if you guys don't know how they
came up with it. It was blood pressure medicine and

(33:02):
that's what they were trying it for. And the guy's
blood pressure didn't go down. Nobody's blood pressure went down.
But they kept asking for it, and they said, how
we're going to discantine? No, no, no, no no. And then
they said, well, what's the deal. They said, well, it's working.
What's it it? And so they're mm because so much
of what goes on with medicine, and remember, it's all
about the patent. So you have a patent towards something

(33:24):
and when it comes to you know, pharmaceutical companies, the
goal is to keep the patent and to have another
use for it. And sometimes they're like, this looks like
this is going to be great. Next thing. You know, boom,
We thought it was gonna be awesome for your blood pressure,
but now it works for your Willie and your hair.

Speaker 22 (33:40):
Lab mice given the drug extended their lives by twenty percent.
Doctor Matt Caberline is not only researching the drug, he's
taking it.

Speaker 24 (33:50):
I think there's a very good chance that wrap of
misin could have health benefits for many people.

Speaker 22 (33:54):
And slow the aging process.

Speaker 24 (33:55):
Yes, I think we know from every animal where it's
been studied that wrappa micein slows biologue aging.

Speaker 22 (34:00):
I'm all for anti aging. Also taking the drug. Forty
seven year old billionaire Brian Johnson. He's earned international fame
for spending more than two million dollars a year to
try to stop his biological clock. He takes fifty supplements
a day, including wrap a mice in, while promising rap
a micein is gaining in popularity off label, much like ozembic,

(34:23):
which was developed to treat diabetes, but is now also
used for weight loss.

Speaker 24 (34:28):
I think it's important though, that this is done in
the context of working with a physician.

Speaker 6 (34:33):
It is a prescription medication.

Speaker 24 (34:34):
I certainly would not encourage people to go get wrap
a mice in without working through their physician.

Speaker 2 (34:41):
Yeah, and there's plenty of places you can go out
there and try. But again that's up to you and
your doctor. They're looking for things in the future to
extend life, and there are plenty of things that we
have no idea what we're going to come up with
in the future. We can't even wrap our heads around it.
So genetics plays a role, and so will, as I

(35:03):
like to say, future medicine, scientific stuff, scientific stuff. Indeed
Chat three, two, three, five, three, eight, twenty four to
twenty three at Chat Benson Show is your Twitter tweet
at as texted program. All that being said, you can
do all of those things, and then you could run
into a storm and we're watching that. It is a

(35:24):
nightmare storm of the century, that's what it's being called. Rightly.

Speaker 25 (35:28):
So, even storm hardened first responders like Tampa Police Chief
Lee Burkhaw are taking Milton seriously.

Speaker 10 (35:34):
This is the storm of the century, and we need
to be preparing for this storm.

Speaker 25 (35:38):
With sustained winds topping one hundred and eighty miles per hour,
the category five hurricane was one of the strongest ever
to come out of the Gulf of Mexico. It is
expected to weaken at least a little before landfall, God
willing it does.

Speaker 2 (35:51):
I'm going to be checking that out in the second hour.
A lot of other stuff to get through last night's interviews,
a bunch of other things. If you're missing the show,
shame on you. You can always text and tweet us Chad
Benson Show. That is your Twitter text and your comment
line three two three five three eight twenty four twenty
three three two three five three eight Chad feel pre
to you that. Like I said, the comment line is,

(36:11):
if you want to leave a voice snail there, feel
free to do so. You can yell at me and
I'm okay with that. It is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (36:19):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (36:49):
In a word, massive. That is the storm heading towards
Tampa Bay. Massive storm. Not since Tom Brady arrived in
Tampa has there been a storm this bay. And it
is a big ass storm. That's the best way to
describe this thing. It was a category five. They said
it should have been a category six. The good news
is before it hits landfall, it is going to slow

(37:10):
down years a bit.

Speaker 12 (37:12):
Milton now a category four hurricane with winds of one
hundred and fifty five miles per hour. Massive evacuations ordered,
prompting bumper to bumper traffic on highways out of town
as the strongest hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico in
nearly two decades, takes aim at the Sunshine State.

Speaker 11 (37:29):
Thousands, hundreds of thousands of cars.

Speaker 12 (37:31):
Riann Ramirez and her family of four driving eight hours
to leave Florida, double the time it would normally take.

Speaker 2 (37:38):
So eight hours to get out of Florida. Some of
these people are sitting and they were at a position
where it took them four or five hours just to
go sixty miles. Traffic is easy, and that is good news.

Speaker 20 (37:49):
With so many people evacuating, we've seen that heavy traffic ourselves.

Speaker 2 (37:53):
In order to.

Speaker 20 (37:53):
Ease congestion, tolls have been temporarily suspended in some spots,
and the shoulders on Ice seventy five they have been
opened up as well. As far as flying out, that
will not be an option for much longer. Operations will
be suspended at Tampa's airport and here Sarasota, Bradenton, and
at Orlando's airport.

Speaker 2 (38:11):
It is a beast of a storm and that is
what Tampa is facing. This is a guy who specializes hurricanes.
And he was very emotional about the storm.

Speaker 10 (38:23):
Yes, that news just came out right now, and it
certainly it's just an incredible, incredible, incredible hurricane. It has dropped,
It has dropped fifteen millibars in ten hours.

Speaker 7 (38:38):
I apologize. This is just horrific.

Speaker 2 (38:42):
That guy is upset big time. He worries about you know,
normally you get excited if you're specializing in hurricanes. A
hurricane is big, you would get excited because you have
a chance to study it. And he threw around the
millibar thing right there, and that is a meteorological terms,
a unit of pressure, another scientific feeling. They use it
to find as one thousand of a bar does that

(39:03):
mean often? He used to express the atmospheric pressure. For example,
standard atmospheric pressure at sea level is one thousand and
thirteen point twenty five millibars, so it to drop fifty
is significant. If you guys cared to know that. I
just wanted to throw that out there, and I want
you guys be left out of the conversation. Continue, sir.

Speaker 10 (39:23):
The seas are just so incredibly incredibly hot, a record hot.

Speaker 7 (39:29):
As you might imagine. You know what's driving that.

Speaker 10 (39:31):
I don't need to tell you global warming, climate change
leading to this and becoming an increasing threat for the Yucatan.

Speaker 2 (39:39):
Let's get over yourself there, dude, settle down. He was
very emotional about this because it's massive and it's dangerous,
and you have people out there that do stupid things,
and you here's the one thing you get. You can't
stop people from being stupid. As much as we would
love it, you can't. Some people are going to stick
it out. Some people decided, well, we're just doing out okay,
and do that at your own cost. You get one

(40:01):
of these lives. So what I tell everybody, get one of
these lives. And if you feel that, hey, this is
just another situation where hey, I got nothing to worry about.
You guys have failed before. I'm staying here, so just
deal with it.

Speaker 12 (40:13):
Milton is expected to be knocked down by some winch
here before making landfall late Wednesday into early Thursday, but
this storm surge could still be unprecedented. Tampa Bay to
Sarasota to Venice could see ten to fifteen feet of
ocean water pushing onto land, prompting one of the largest
evacuations in years. But those staying put are prepping for

(40:34):
the worst, frantically filling sandbags, boarding up homes, stocking up
many shelves already empty.

Speaker 2 (40:40):
And if you want to stay behind, the Tampa Mayor
has some warnings for you.

Speaker 11 (40:43):
What is your number one message to Tampa residence.

Speaker 2 (40:46):
We'll be tast it.

Speaker 13 (40:47):
The number one message, as it has been for several
days now, is that you need to prepare, do whatever
you need to do, and then get out of the
evacuation zone. And as we all have heard so many
times now, you hide from the wind and run from
the water.

Speaker 3 (41:07):
And we are.

Speaker 13 (41:07):
Talking about right now, the possibility of a direct hit
would tend to twelve foot title surge. Put that in perspective.
Hurricane Helene, which just left the Tampa Bay area, there
was six foot storm surge.

Speaker 2 (41:23):
That is massive. So and you saw what it's done
to North Carolina, parts of eastern Tennessee and Georgia. That
storm surge is huge, and the other thing is and
this is one of the things that not be talking about.
And we'll get back to the mayor here in a second.
Is the debris that is still out there from Helene?

Speaker 26 (41:44):
An urgent concern is the debris from Hurricane Helene still
piled up in coastal communities.

Speaker 11 (41:50):
Some landfills are now open around the clock, but people
waiting hours in line.

Speaker 2 (41:55):
If you're going to stay behind and again you get
one life. If this is what you think, it's a
boy that wolf. I always remind everybody what ends up
happening at the end of the thing. Oh yeah, it's
a the wolf shows up.

Speaker 14 (42:04):
What would you say to people tonight who are saying,
you know what, I'm going to ride this out.

Speaker 15 (42:08):
I've written others out. What would you say to people
who aren't hating those evacuation orders.

Speaker 13 (42:12):
Well, I can tell you right now that they may
have done that in others. There's never been one like this,
and this Helene was a wake up call. This is
literally catastrophic. And I can say, without any dramatization whatsoever,
if you choose to stay in one of those evacuation areas,

(42:34):
you're going to die.

Speaker 2 (42:35):
Is everybody going to die?

Speaker 23 (42:36):
No?

Speaker 2 (42:36):
But are there going to be situations where people are
deciding to stick around. They understand what's coming because you
see it. And there will be people that think this
is going to be nothing or I've written these things
out before and they end up paying the price. I
do believe. So it's unfortunate, but you can only do
so much and the damage is going to be potentially horrific.
Now here's the thing. There's always that chance that nature

(42:58):
does something it surprises all of us. Right, you never know.
Nature may look at this thing and the wind shear
may continue to be strong, it may knock this thing
down to a tropical storm and what is up happening
from there. Well, at that point in time, it becomes potential.
You know, the floodwaters are there, but it's not as
bad as it could have been. Or Milt, that's what

(43:19):
I call Old Milt, just cruises on in and just
reeks havoc like Godzilla on a bender, which is always
a possibility as well. Then you've got the battle of
the politics. Ron De Santis, Governor of.

Speaker 27 (43:33):
Florida, for Kamala Harris to try to say that my
sole focus on the people of Florida is somehow.

Speaker 2 (43:39):
Selfish, is delusional.

Speaker 7 (43:41):
She has no role in this.

Speaker 27 (43:43):
In fact, she's been vice president for three and a
half years. I've dealt with a number of storms under
this administration. She has never contributed anything to any of
these efforts. And so what I think is selfish heard
trying to blunder into this. No, and here's she has
no role. Well, no, she has no role in this process.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
No role in the process. Not now, She's got no
role in it. But she's out there. And the politics, again,
the politics have happened because of Helene, because of the
nightmare that's going on in Eastern Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia.
Politics has grown out of this in a way that
is different than let's talk climate changes, this, that and

(44:24):
the other. It's about red state, blue state bs and
it's insane. And then all of a sudden, DeSantis, who
we could talk about. Desantus a lot of different things.
I've always said, I think you do a hell of
a job as president. I just don't think you can
get the job. He's done a hell of a job
so far with these to the point where after Lene
hit he was able to get help to the surrounding
states that needed it because they had done such a

(44:45):
bang up job.

Speaker 27 (44:46):
I've had storms under both President Trump and President Biden,
and I've worked well with both of them. She's the
first one who's trying to politicize the storm, and she's
doing that just because of her campaign. She's trying to
to get some type of an edge. She knows she's
she's doing poorly, and so she's playing these plittle games.
I don't have time for political games. I've got peoples

(45:07):
whose lives are on the line. She is being selfish
by trying to blunder into this when we're working just
fine here here.

Speaker 2 (45:16):
Well said again, I think you would be a hell
of a president. I just don't think you get the job.
Doesn't have that personality for it, and today we need
personality we do. We need that game show personality when
it comes to our leader. Three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four to twenty three Atch you had Benson Show's
your Twitter. There was an interview last night with Kamala
Walls had a bit of the interview as well. Why
didn't Trump show up? Talk a bit about that raycon

(45:38):
best here, But it's around love my Raycon wear them
every single day. Why is that? Because they're amazing. They're incredible, fit,
second to none, ergonomically amazing. Of course they are top
of that quick charge function. How about this ten minutes
of charging yields ninety minutes of battery, multi connectivity, active
noise cancelation, three customizable sounds, weather proof and sweat resistant.

(46:01):
They are incredible, thirty two hours of battery life. I
wear them all the time because I'm working all the
time in Audio is a medium I work in and
thanks to Raycon, they deliver for me time and time
again the everyday yearbuts for Raycon have gotten better. Now
here's something that is amazing. They not only rival, they
beat all these other premium audio So you have a
thirty day happiness guarantee. So it's easy for you to

(46:25):
make a return if.

Speaker 8 (46:26):
You need to.

Speaker 2 (46:27):
How about right now, you got to buy raycon dot
com slash chat get up to fifty percent off site wide.
That's right, twenty to fifty percent off everything on Raycon's website. Boom.
How do you get this? You got to buy raycon
dot com slash chad. That's buy Raycon dot com slash
chad by raycon dot Com slash chat Chad Benson.

Speaker 18 (46:46):
Joe Chad Benson in your debate with JDS and she said,
I'm a knucklehead.

Speaker 4 (47:01):
And I think you were referring to the time that
you said that you were in Hong Kong during the
Tienanman Square unrest.

Speaker 3 (47:08):
When you were not.

Speaker 4 (47:09):
Yeah, is that kind of misrepresentation more than just being
a knucklehead.

Speaker 28 (47:13):
Folks know who I am, and I think they know
the difference between someone expressing motion telling your story getting
a date wrong, rather than a pathological liar like Donald Trump.

Speaker 4 (47:22):
But I think it comes down to the question of
whether you can be trusted to tell the truth.

Speaker 2 (47:27):
Yeah, well I can't. I think I can. Sure, I
think again, I'm good guy. You'd like me, just an
old fashioned knucklehead. You know, it goes last night. So
Walls got his sixty minutes due last night, and then
from there he had straight over to Jimmy Kimmel to
be well, to be cheered. You're a hero. It's the
beauti of America, truly.

Speaker 28 (47:50):
You know, where could a girl from Oakland, a middle
class family, a single mom, and a kid from Nebraska
And she says this to me and she says, and
look at we're running for president and vice president.

Speaker 8 (47:59):
It's thinking.

Speaker 2 (48:00):
She said, that's America. Well, that is America, and I
think that's rather cool. And I didn't know if you
guys are aware this. She is a middle class kid.
Some of the other things they talked about on Kimmel
last night as he dazzled everybody is October seventh, yesterday
was the anniversary of the horrific attack by Hamas on Israel.

Speaker 28 (48:20):
Twelve hundred folks dead, forty six Americans and vice president
and I talking about making sure that it never happens again,
that Israel secure and the hostages are brought home, and
the humanitarian crisis in Gaza ends.

Speaker 2 (48:35):
It ends when Hamas is defeated. That's when it ends,
when the cloak of evil and darkness is lifted from
the people there and freedom and opportunity are allowed to flourish.
But the first thing is you have to get rid
of Hamas. You have to get rid of the organization

(48:57):
that in their charter says kill the use. That's what
you must eliminate. When you do that, then you will
see the humanitarian crisis go away. If you do that.
If it was up to this administration, they would negotiate
until the hostages die of old age and nothing ever

(49:19):
gets escalated, and then Israel's back in the same position
that they are right now, which is fending off attacks
and or recovering from another brutal October seventh like attack.
So last night, on top of all of that stuff,
people are asking the question, why was Trump? Why in

(49:41):
Trump get the opportunity? Why in Trump get the opportunity?

Speaker 29 (49:43):
What?

Speaker 2 (49:44):
Where was Trump? Where wit happen? He was invited, right, mister.

Speaker 29 (49:50):
Pelly, It's been a tradition for more than half a
century that the major party candidates for presidents sit down
with sixty minutes in October. In nineteen sixty eight, it
was Richard Nixon and Hubert Humphrey. This year, Vice President
Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump accepted our invitation,

(50:11):
but unfortunately last week Trump canceled. The Trump campaign had
told us that the interview would be this past Thursday
at Mar A Lago. They also asked us whether we
would meet seventy eight year old Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania,
where he was graised in an assassination attempt. We agreed

(50:33):
on September ninth, Trump's communications director, Stephen Chung, sent a
text that read quote, I'm working with our advance team
to see logistically if Butler would work in addition to
the sit down sit down, meaning the interview in Florida.
Days later, Chung called to say quote, the President said, yes.

Speaker 2 (50:57):
Okay, So we got to that point. By the way,
brought up his age. You would never have done that
with Joe Biden, and you said grazed. Okay, he was grace.
It was an assassination attempt. He was shot, but alas,
just tell us what happened.

Speaker 29 (51:15):
Then a week ago, Trump backed out. The campaign offered
shifting explanations. First, it complained that we would fact check
the interview. We fact check every story. Later, Trump said
he needed an apology for his interview in twenty twenty.
Trump claims correspondent Leslie Stall said in that interview that

(51:39):
Hunter Biden's controversial laptop came from Russia. She never said that.
Trump has said his opponent doesn't do interviews because she
can't handle them. He had previously declined another debate with Harris,
so tonight may have been the largest audience for the
candidates between now and election day. Our questions addressed the economy, immigration,

(52:06):
reproductive rights, and the wars in the Middle East and Europe.
Both campaigns understood this special would go ahead if either
candidate backed out.

Speaker 2 (52:17):
I don't think he needed an apology. But did they
miss on that? Yeah? I would have liked to have
seen Trump go there and say, look, you know, last
time I was here, Leslie stal and I had a
very contentious relationship if you go back and watch any
of the interviews they did together. But and by the way,
Trump loves it, and Leslie says, you love this, don't you,
and he goes, yeah, I kind of do. The reality

(52:40):
though about the laptop was it was real. Everybody knows that,
and everybody's like, well, it's not a big deal, now, Well,
the thing was, it was a big deal, and the
government played a major role in bs ing us. We're
at seven hundred and fifty five of the best super's
top secret intelligence agents to say it's not real. Okay, okay,
but it was, and many of them knew it at

(53:03):
the time and they still didn't care. So in that situation, yeah,
you know what, yo own apology. Sorry, it was real.
That was our bad. That being said, Trump should have
done the interview. He should have. You don't have to
like CBS, but it shows you again that you're willing
to go into the belly of the beast, the fire,

(53:25):
to take on whatever you need to, and you should have.
That's just my opinion. Others would be like, no, I'm
glad he didn't. No, No, I think you should have,
because there's still a lot of people out there who
watch sixty minutes, who are voters. Take out the young
and the media, well, the media is totally different now,
totally agree on that, but voters, they watched sixty minutes.

(53:49):
You may get more eyeballs on a Joe Rogan podcast
and some of that other stuff, but the reality is
the people that vote consistently want sixty minutes three two, three, four,
twenty three at Chad Benson Show, tr twenty missing show,
grab the podcast. It is the Chad Benson, Joe.

Speaker 1 (54:12):
The Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (54:36):
You know, with all this talk of hurricanes, there was
a little bit of a differ tet yesterday at the
White House briefing room between our good friend Deucey and KJP.
They got into a scrap.

Speaker 30 (54:49):
The administration has money to send to Lebanon without Congress
coming back. The Congress does have to come back to
approve money to send to people in North Carolina.

Speaker 8 (54:58):
Do I have that right?

Speaker 31 (54:59):
The President and the Vice President has had a robust
hole of government response to this, hundreds of millions of
dollars and more than two hundred million dollars that we
have directly put towards survivors here. But instead people want
to do disinformation misinformation, which is dangerous.

Speaker 2 (55:17):
Okay, I agreed. Disinformation misinformation is dangerous because we've talked
about some of the ridiculousness that we've seen, and we've
talked to people out there and they're like, Oh, there's
dead bodies everywhere, and you talk to somebody like there's
no dead bodies here. Again, misinformation, disinformation. Okay, I totally understand.
But what he asked was, in one of the things
that we have talked about, you need Congress to come

(55:40):
back for this, but to allocate money over here, you
don't need Congress. And in truth, if you go and
look at the whole FEMA thing and the agency in an emergency,
they can allocate money in a different way and take
it from pot to potb That.

Speaker 30 (55:57):
Is President Biden is fond of saying, show me your budget,
and I will tell you what you value. If he's
got money for people in Lebanon right now without Congress
having to come back, what does it.

Speaker 6 (56:08):
Say about his values?

Speaker 30 (56:09):
There's not enough money right now for in North Carolina.

Speaker 6 (56:14):
That's not misinformation.

Speaker 31 (56:15):
Wait, no, that is your whole your whole premise of
the question is misinformation, sir, Yes, it's misinformation.

Speaker 2 (56:22):
I just mentioned.

Speaker 31 (56:24):
I just mentioned. I just mentioned to you that we
provided more than two hundred million dollars.

Speaker 6 (56:28):
You're to Congress that there's not enough money to help people.

Speaker 31 (56:30):
We're talking about the SBA disaster loan.

Speaker 6 (56:33):
There's money for people in North Carolina.

Speaker 31 (56:34):
And that's important, and people in North Carolina need that.

Speaker 2 (56:38):
Okay, they're getting into it. Everybody's just said, you know,
like it's one of those things where eybody starts moving
closer because they think they're going to throw down. They're
not going to throw down, but wouldn't that be hilarious,
But they're not going to continue, you too, God, sexual tension,
you can just cut it with a knife.

Speaker 6 (56:52):
The president's letter is not misinformation, would you agree?

Speaker 31 (56:56):
No, The way you're asking me the question is misinformation.
There is money that we are allocating to the impacted areas,
and there's money there to help people who truly need it.
There are survivors who need the funding, who need the funding,
and it's there misinformation.

Speaker 7 (57:11):
I said that.

Speaker 31 (57:12):
I actually said we have the money available to help
survivors of Hurricane Helene and also Hurricane Milton. Now there's
going to be a shortfall, right because we don't know
how bad it's Hurricane Hilton.

Speaker 2 (57:25):
Is going to be, and we know that it is
going to be bad. We do understand that there's a
chance that this thing could be ugly. They got into it, though,
and let me tell you something, there was more than
just that. She eventually stormed off the stage, storming away.
People are frustrated, people are pissed, people are angry, They're

(57:46):
asking questions, and one of those things is and this
is where as a government, you come out and say,
look this money over here, this one point four billion
over the last couple of years that has gone to
people that have come here and abused our system. You're
not gonna say that. They're not gonna say that abused
our system, et cetera, et cetera. That money was allocated
for them. We will find the money and make sure

(58:08):
that people have everything they need in this time. It's
not gonna when you come out and you just throw
it out there. What you do is a you kill
a conspiracy right right thereure B. You set in motion
and understanding of what is coming, how it's gonna be

(58:31):
dealt with that. It isn't gonna be perfect. Some people
are gonna be pissed. You're gonna hear misinformation and disinformation,
and all I ask you to do is go take
a deep breath and go do you think that's real?
Maybe check a couple different places, get out in front
of it. But they're not going to and instead, what
they're gonna do is allow these things to fester and find.

(58:51):
I mean, the amount of insanity I've gotten over the
last couple of days over how this has been handled.
And I have said this pre Helen. Let me tell
you this is gonna be handled poorly. They're not set
up in certain areas the right way. The places are
gonna be the most affected are going to be remote,

(59:12):
and it isn't going to be a snap of the fingers.
Everybody is going to be taken care of, which is
what people want, they want that take care of it.
It ain't gonna happen. Sorry, they only got seven hundred
fifty dollars. That is a starter. Now, do I think
it's ridiculous that you headed somebody seven hundred and fifty
dollars who may have nowhere to go to spend that money,

(59:41):
to take that money to purchase things they may need
because the places around where they are also don't have
anything in stock. So yeah, you can point some of
those things out. Everybody needs to take a step back
for a second and think about the people that are
going through this. And that's why I said hour the
frustration with the conspiracy side of things is there are

(01:00:04):
real people going through this. Everybody wants to have some
sort of say, you know, like I'm gonna go take
two and I'm hearing and then that becomes truth and
it's and even when you go that's not truth. Why
are we talking about this? There are people out there
that are still missing, most likely are not alive. There
are people out there that are missing and are presumed

(01:00:26):
dead and may be alive, and there are people out
there who need stuff, and instead everybody's fighting over how
bad the response is. I don't expect the response to
be great. I respect the response to be exactly what
it is. A government response, slow at times, unorganized, lacking

(01:00:48):
in many things, no communication. But do I for a
moment think that there are men and women out there
who are out there specifically to make sure that these
people get nothing? And I mean no, no, And that's
just so acidine and I've gotten a lot of that.

(01:01:11):
They're there for a reason. I want to stop these
people from getting stuff. Okay, Oh my god, three two three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at you had
vented show Shore Twitter your Instagram last night. This lady
she wants to be president of the United States, talking
about stuff like all the economy.

Speaker 4 (01:01:31):
There are lots of signs that the American economy is
doing very well, but the American people don't seem to
be feeling it. Groceries for twenty five percent higher. People
are blaming you.

Speaker 3 (01:01:44):
Are they wrong?

Speaker 5 (01:01:45):
We now have historic low unemployment in America, We now
have an economy that is thriving by all macroeconomic measures.
Prices are still too high and we need to deal
with it, which is why part of my plan you
mentioned groceries. Part of My plan is what we must
do to bring down the price of grosses.

Speaker 2 (01:02:03):
Okay, so you talk macro and macro's she's right me.
We're thriving. Micro though is our bank accounts. And that's
the frustrating part when we talk about the economy. As
I have said over and over again, the two hat
approach is what is going on. The employee, employer, business
owner hat has a smile on its face. It feels

(01:02:25):
like things are going okay. The economy's moving in the
right direction. It's strong. We don't have to worry about tomorrow,
you know, falling off a cliff and going back to
two thousand and eight. The consumer hat. So you take
that hat off, you put the consumer hat on. That's
the one that feels all of the pain. Because groceries
are up twenty five thirty percent. Even though inflation is

(01:02:49):
slowing down, it is still well above where it was
four years ago. So as we sit here and talk
about a lot of this stuff, it is you know,
that's the one thing it frustrates me with all politicians
is are you not getting it? And Trump gets it?
He does, he gets it, you know. I mean, you
can sit here and blow smoke all day and tell everybody, look,

(01:03:12):
how great the macro side of the economy is. I
don't care about that. I care about me. I care
about my needs. I care about the things that I
see going on, which is too damn expensive to live
because we're still selfish sobs, and I care about me.
You know, when people say the world doesn't revolve around you,
yeah it does. My world does. And people are looking

(01:03:34):
at her going, what the hell are you going to do?
Because in the last three years, what you have done
is jack the pooch when it comes to our world.
You've let in god knows how many people here from
all over the world who are now competing for certain jobs.
You have failed in many different aspects of the economy.

(01:03:54):
And while on the macro sense, yeah, the economy is
doing okay, on the micro sense, as we go back
to it, that's where people are focusing. The micro and
the micro is everybody's getting kicked in the crundle. So
we can talk about how great the economy is, and
we can celebrate the jobs and this, that and the

(01:04:15):
other good you better celebrate them damn jobs. You're gonna
need a second one. We still care about us, that's
our selfishness, And I got no problem with that, because
we should all be a little bit selfish when it
comes to our lives. While celebrating the bigger victory, the
individual who votes is saying me, I don't feel the win.

(01:04:36):
Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four to twenty

Yeah, the chat vans and show.

Speaker 2 (01:06:13):
All right, here we go, kids, Are you ready for this?
They came for your beloved memories and Tremima's one of them,
several others. Now, they're coming for birds. That's right, kids,
birds get out of town. Yeah? Yeah, why are they
coming for birds? I guess maybe some of the people
that name those birds are evil and bad.

Speaker 33 (01:06:34):
Twenty twenty is racial reckoning may not have led to
the policing changes so many people hoped for, but it
did lead to it. Out of name changes, remember Auntemima
gone Eskimo pie now Edie's Pie. Also in twenty twenty,
we got the thick builled long spur. It's a bird
once known as McCown's long spur. Got its name from
a man named John McCown. He was an amateur bird collector.

(01:06:57):
He was also a Confederate general. There are six other
their North American bird species the American Ornithological Society plans
to change for similar reasons.

Speaker 2 (01:07:07):
So we're changing the names of the birds. First of all,
nobody would have even known who named those damn birds
and brought this up, had you guys not brought this up.

Speaker 33 (01:07:16):
And this apparently set off a big debate among birders
ahead of their annual meeting. Bird watcher Christian Cooper was there,
you'll remember his story. On the same day George Floyd
was killed in Minneapolis, a white woman called police on
Christian after he called her out over her unleashed dog
in Central Park. He is with us now now they
want to change the name of birds Confederate monuments. Okay,

(01:07:36):
Antemima off the pancake box. Fine, but birds come on
to that, you say, what, So what has.

Speaker 34 (01:07:42):
Some people upset? Is that why these names are changing?
And the reason is because a lot of these people
have some pretty awful history.

Speaker 2 (01:07:50):
Okay, awful history that nobody would have ever known about.
I couldn't tell you who named any bird, could you, honestly,
if you didn't look it up? Could you tell tell me? Oh,
I'm sure there's a bird or two out there, but really,
could you tell me their history as well? It might
have been, oh, Stephen R. Tibberton, smurf whatever, whatever name

(01:08:13):
I just made up there. It was awful, and I'd
have been like, okay, cool, I would not know their
history until you told me. Like if there's a bird
called the hitler, all right, right, okay, we all get it.
But there's not.

Speaker 8 (01:08:25):
So let's go is there?

Speaker 33 (01:08:27):
Okay, there's not, So let's go through a few of them,
some of the first six to change. And John Kirk
Townshend has two in the first six, Townshend's Warbler and
townshend Solitaire. Fine looking birds, but why did he make
the list?

Speaker 34 (01:08:40):
It was a naturalist and an ornithologist, but he also
robbed the graves of indigenous people to send to his
pal in Philadelphia who was measuring skulls to prove his
racist theories about how white people were superior. So and
he knew what he was doing, He knew that this
was a desecration of other people's religion.

Speaker 2 (01:09:00):
Just believes, Okay, that's why we're doing it, all right,
So we're doing it for that reason. How do we
even know that? Did you guys know that? You didn't?

Speaker 33 (01:09:10):
You should have Scott's oriole General Winfield Scott. Why did
he make the list?

Speaker 34 (01:09:16):
This is one of the worst ones out there. He
named it after his commanding officer, as an honor to
his commanding officer, who happened to be the guy who
presided over the trail of tears that led to the
forced relocation of seventeen thousand Cherokee. In the process, a
third of them died. So it's really a case of genocide.

(01:09:36):
And this guy has a bird named after him that
every time an indigenous birder says the guy's the bird's
name and the bird has nothing to do with the guy,
they've got to put that man's name in his No,
that's not right.

Speaker 2 (01:09:47):
What you have known about that. I already forgot who
the hell it was, he said, Orioles, I'm like, I
like the Ools. I think they're a good baseball team. Exactly,
we have. We spent way too much time on crap
that does doesn't matter. And then what happens is people
tell me when you want to talk about what the
when you hear people out there who are like, oh,

(01:10:09):
look at me, I've done good, right, like the virtue signaling.
This is what virtue signaling is. This hasn't helped anybody,
people who didn't know. First of all, nobody knows what
the hell the name of the bird is. Nobody does.
Most people can't even tell the difference between a crow
and a raven, let alone a freakin wobbler. It just

(01:10:32):
couldn't you have done something else? I mean again, if
it makes you feel good. I've just I sit there
and thought I heard this, and I'm like, are we
really doing this? Yes, we're doing this? Erase that history. Kids, Well, chat,
he is a bad guy. Maybe I wouldn't have known
about it. What are you gonna call it now? Oh
my lord? Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four

(01:10:53):
twenty three at Chad Benson Show is your Twitter, tweet
at as text to program, A lot of stuff to
get to in the third hour, more and more on
what is happening with obviously not just the coming by
the way, not just the coming hurricane, which is a beast.

(01:11:14):
Milton is a beast. But we still have cleanup going
on with Helene, and we touched on it last year.
I want to get more into it. It is the
insanity of this just can't be a natural disaster. This
has to be a conspiracy. It can't just be a

(01:11:38):
horrible thing that happened. It has to be a full
out one conspiracy. Which is it drives me crazy. And
you know, I mean the there are people out there suffering,
and currently I'm out here in East Tennesse, not in
East Tennessee. I'm in Middle Tennessee and Nashville, but in

(01:12:00):
East Tennessee not too far away. I've talked to several
people that have been out there. It's not been great.
But this whole thought process of all of this stuff
that's happening, and that somehow it's some sort of grand conspiracy,
and that there is a person out there controlling all
of us, they whoever they are, and that if you

(01:12:21):
don't understand that you're an idiot. It's the it's the mindset.
Talk about that, plus more from last night's riveting interview. Yes, yes,
Kamala did an interview sixty minutes. It's pretty good. You
know the interview. They asked some good questions. I think
she didn't answer some of the questions. A lot of
people are pointing that out. But she sat down for him,

(01:12:43):
so we've got to give her at least a hey,
good for you. Wall sat down too, and he sat
down with Jimmy Kimmel. So there's a lot of stuff
still to go through. You miss any of the show,
make sure you grabbed the podcast. This is the Chad
Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (01:12:56):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (01:13:26):
So sixteen minutes. Did a big, giant, huge interview last night,
Kamala Harris. You know, uls was being interviewed Elon Musk
the Musketeer, as I like the column. So we talked
a bit about the economy. We talked about a lot
of stuff, but immigration is a big deal because immigration,

(01:13:46):
you look at the for all the stuff we talk
about when it comes to federal comment, you're still in
charge of a lot of your own life. Now, can
the Feds make things more difficult at time? Can they
jack the pooch, as I like to say, absolutely? Can
they do several things that maybe make your life a
little bit more of a pain in the ass, of course,
But there are some things that are solely the responsibility

(01:14:07):
of the federal government, Like the state has no say
over immigration.

Speaker 35 (01:14:12):
They got no say Ron Desanta's no say Greg Abbott,
no say you my friend Mia Migo, Doug Deocy when
you were there, no say.

Speaker 2 (01:14:23):
Now, you could pretend to have a say, but in
reality you got no say. So the federal government has
that say they say when it comes to what happens
with immigration. And she was pressed a little bit last
night on sixty minutes.

Speaker 4 (01:14:39):
I've been covering the border for years, and so I
know this is not a problem that started with your administration.
But there was an historic flood of undocumented immigrants coming
across the border the first three years of your administration.
As a matter of fact, arrivals quadrupled from the last

(01:15:00):
year of President Trump. Was it a mistake to loosen
the immigration policies as much as you did.

Speaker 5 (01:15:08):
It's a long standing problem and solutions are at hand,
and from day one, literally, we have been offering solutions.

Speaker 2 (01:15:17):
Day one, not day two, not day three, off day four.
It's too like day one. We've got solutions to the problems.
The dail all of you.

Speaker 4 (01:15:27):
What I was asking was was it a mistake to
kind of allow that flood to happen in the first place.

Speaker 5 (01:15:34):
I say, the policies that we have been proposing are
about fixing a problem, not promoting a problem.

Speaker 3 (01:15:41):
Okay, but the numbers did quadruple.

Speaker 5 (01:15:43):
And the numbers today because of what we have done,
we have cut the flow of illegal immigration by half.
We have done the offentl by half. But we need
Congress to be able to act to actually fix the problem.

Speaker 2 (01:16:01):
Now. I don't know about the fentinal thing because I
have no idea. I don't think anybody is, because the
whole goal is not to get caught. Now, the amount
that you may have taken in may be down tremendously,
which I hope is true. And we're looking at the
numbers as far as overdose and stuff. I think the
words getting out that don't take that affing pill. It's great.
The other side of it, though, is the numbers aren't down.

(01:16:22):
Now you say they're down, but because you're counting it
differently now, so flying him into a different port and
then saying this doesn't count because they've got an app
is not the same thing. When he remind everybody of that.
We've talked about other friend Ali Bradley on numerous occasions here,
those numbers are how should we say, ah, Jimmy ranked
there's a way to put it. Continue.

Speaker 4 (01:16:43):
Man recently visited the southern border and embraced President Biden's
recent crackdown on asylum seekers, and that crackdown produced an
almost immediate and dramatic decrease in the number of border
cross If that's the right answer, now, why didn't your

(01:17:03):
administration take those steps?

Speaker 3 (01:17:05):
In twenty twenty.

Speaker 5 (01:17:06):
One, the first bill we proposed to Congress was to
fix our broken immigration system, knowing that if you want
to actually fix it, we need Congress to act it
was not taken up.

Speaker 2 (01:17:19):
All right, all right, right, right, right right right, I've yes, yes,
h I've got I've got an answer for that. First
of all, the first thing you guys did was undid
all of those things that stop people from coming here. Right,
You're like, we're going to go do the executive actionally
did get rid of those other executive acts. So you
guys go and do this, okay, okay, okay. So then
you threw out a bill. Right, and I will say

(01:17:40):
this though in her defense, Congress, you have to be
a part of this. And you've chosen that third is
where you want the equal, co equal running of this
government as the branches of the government. Right, you've got
the executive, judicial, legislative. You've decided you feel comfortable at three,
and let them fight for number one and two, which

(01:18:01):
is the Scotus right, judicial and the executive for the
President's office. So let's go over your massive, awesome plan.
Did you guys release write your bill? Are you guys ready?
Is everybody ready? What do you think it was called?
It's like, oh, don't ever come here bill? No, it's
the don't bill. No, that's not the name. It was

(01:18:26):
President Biden's first immigration bill, US Citizenship Act of twenty
twenty one. Introduced in March eighteenth, twenty twenty one. It
aimed to provide a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants
in the United States. What what that's not fixing the problem.
That's rewarding people who've broken the law. One more from her.

Speaker 5 (01:18:50):
Fast forward to a moment when a bipartisan group of
members of the United States Senate, including one of the
most conservative members of the United States Senate, got together
came up with a border security bill.

Speaker 2 (01:19:01):
Well, guess what happened.

Speaker 5 (01:19:03):
Donald Trump got word that this bill was afoot and
could be passed, and he wants to run on a
problem instead of fixing a problem. So he told his
buddies in Congress, kill the bill, don't let it move forward.

Speaker 2 (01:19:14):
Some of that's true, but it was bipartisan where you
had people who are working on it who didn't have support,
by the way, from many in their own party. So
while it was better than nothing, wasn't great. And here's
the other thing. And I go back to this all
the time when it comes to immigration. You one did

(01:19:35):
a bunch of stuff, and now you're trying to put
some of that stuff back in. You want more tools,
Yet the tools you have you never use. So me
giving you more tools isn't going to make a situation
better if you're not using the ones you already have.
How do I or anybody else know that you're going
to be able to use any of these tools? Just
asking for America. We moved from immigration there to Elon

(01:19:59):
Muss hyperbole. Yes, but I'll explain what he's thinking.

Speaker 36 (01:20:05):
I remind you is that if Trump doesn't win this election,
it's the last election we're going to have.

Speaker 2 (01:20:12):
Okay. Now, his approach to the last election is different
than a lot of other people's approach. So they come
at it from its democracy.

Speaker 35 (01:20:24):
They're gonna steal in and slave us, all make themselves
kings at guade that will have nothing but.

Speaker 2 (01:20:31):
A surf like life that we look forward to. That
that's the way everybody comes at it. Right, He's gonna
be Adolf Hitler, She's gonna be Ava Paron. I don't
know throwing out there. You can see where I'm going this.
His thinking is different. Do I believe one hundred percent?

Speaker 23 (01:20:53):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:20:54):
But do I believe that it's a possibility that I do.

Speaker 36 (01:21:01):
So, what happens if you put, you know, hundreds of
thousands of people into each swing state and somebody is
granted asignum, they are fast tracked, they can get a
green card, and then five years after the green card,
they can get citizenship and they can fully legally vote,
and when they do so, they vote a whelmingly Democrat.

Speaker 2 (01:21:20):
He is correct, and the swing states have had lots
of people dump there. You can go look at their numbers.
They tell you, So why is that important if you're
going to vote overwhelming the Democrat. Let me tell you something.
There are a few states out there that if they
were to switch, it changes everything and we do become

(01:21:46):
what he says we may become.

Speaker 36 (01:21:49):
So my prediction is if there's another four years of
a dem administration, they will legalize so many illegals that
are there that the next selection there won't be any
swing states and we will be a single party country,
just like California is a single party state. That's a
supermajority demn state in California.

Speaker 2 (01:22:11):
And that right there is the worry of could they
do something? Absolutely the oh my god, democracy, it's the
last election ever, and let's talk about the last election.
The difference between the last election, which is it and

(01:22:34):
the way that some people frame it because he's going
to become a dictator and he's going to how many
people have said, you know what, I think he's going
to give it to his kids. It's if you're an
ass hat, and if we can gerrymander certain states where
they will always vote for us. Then while you get
to vote, the reality is is we're going to win

(01:22:55):
every single time, so it really doesn't matter two seventy.
You have no chance at two seventy. So that is
more feasible than they're gonna blow up the constitution and
install themselves as a king or queen, which a lot
of other people out there believe. Three two, three, five,

(01:24:40):
Straight ahead.

Speaker 1 (01:24:50):
Chadpenson, No, It's.

Speaker 2 (01:24:52):
Time to find out what's trending. What's trending.

Speaker 6 (01:24:55):
I'm signed James Dean to Lis.

Speaker 37 (01:25:04):
Norway, Oman, Pakistan, Qatar, Russia, sera, what truppy?

Speaker 2 (01:25:20):
Let's find out what's trending on the old interwebs on
this Tuesday. Oh baby, Let's start today with Twitter obviously
number one trending thing. Florida Milton, the Chiefs make an appearance.
Cat five? Will it be a cat six? Hamas Floridians

(01:25:41):
clock call her Daddy? Elon Kelsey all trending the magical
world of Twitter. Head over finally to Yahoo Hurricane Milton.
We've been talking about throughout today. A beast. It's the
best way to describe it.

Speaker 8 (01:26:01):
A beast.

Speaker 2 (01:26:03):
Donald Trump, by Gold, Chiefs, Ukraine, war Megan, markle Boeing,
Sean Ditty, Combs, Diddy. Of course he did, dur That's
why we're talking about him. I don't think that's very nice.

Speaker 33 (01:26:18):
Jared.

Speaker 2 (01:26:20):
What's he going to do? I don't know what he's
gonna do. You never know with him. What couldn't reach
does he have inside of prison? I saw yesterday where
they're like Dave denying he does not get special treatment.
Oh he's going to and then finally over to Google.
Chiefs number one trending thing yesterday, followed by Milton Sissy
Houston that would be the mother of Whitney passed away,

(01:26:48):
Bianca Sensory that would be the soon to be ex
wife of Kanye's chased another one away, jeez, sixty minutes trending,
Hoffman hurricane, Andrew All trending. When does Daylight Savings begin

(01:27:15):
to also trending? I think that's the first weekend in November, right,
so we're the three weeks away. I think that's when
Daylight Savings kicks off. From correct three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four, twenty three at shedventon shows your
Twitter tweet at his text the program. Yes, this hurricane
is a beast. There's no doubt about that. The Mayor

(01:27:38):
of Tampa is putting a warning out there to everybody
about this. This is a monster of a storm. This
is no joke. A lot of times these people will
ride stuff out because they've been through forty of these things.
And that AD's the boy who cried wolf, and I
remind everybody, at some point in time, the wolf does

(01:28:00):
go up.

Speaker 11 (01:28:00):
What is your number one message to Tampa residents tonight?

Speaker 13 (01:28:04):
The number one message as it has been for several
days now, is that you need to prepare, do whatever
you need to do, and then get out of the
evacuation zone. And as we all have heard so many
times now, you hide from the wind and run from
the water. And we are talking about right now, the

(01:28:26):
possibility of a direct hit would tend to twelve foot
title surge. Put that in perspective Hurricane Helene, which just
left the Tampa Bay area, there was six foot storm surge, So.

Speaker 2 (01:28:41):
We're talking about double the size of the storm surge.
And this is what she has to say. If you
plan to.

Speaker 14 (01:28:46):
Say, what would you say to people tonight who are saying,
you know what, I'm going to ride this out.

Speaker 15 (01:28:51):
I've written others out. What would you say to people
who aren't hating those evacuation orders?

Speaker 13 (01:28:56):
Well, I can tell you right now that they may
have done that. In other there's never been one like this,
and this Helene was a wake up call. This is
literally catastrophic. And I can say, without any dramatization whatsoever,
if you choose to stay in one of those evacuation areas,

(01:29:17):
you're going to die.

Speaker 2 (01:29:19):
That's a little bit much. But are a lot of
people going to die? I think the possibility is there.
And I heard somebody say write your name on your
self so people can identify you. And getting out is
not easy at this moment in time.

Speaker 22 (01:29:33):
We actually took eight hours just to get out of
the state of Florida.

Speaker 11 (01:29:37):
So we the first sixty miles.

Speaker 9 (01:29:40):
It took us four and a half hours to go
sixty miles.

Speaker 2 (01:29:44):
Sounds like a normal day in Los Angeles. So if
you're listening, and we have a lot of stations, so
listen to us throughout Florida. It is going to be nasty,
better safe than sorry. You get one of these lives.
I remind everybody of that, you get one of these lives,
and some of these things as you look at and
you go, maybe this isn't one of those things. It
is a beast one hundred and eighty mile in their wins.

(01:30:07):
Even if, and it's a big if, this thing slows
down and when it eventually late Wednesday Thursday hits the state,
it is still going to be moving and bringing with it. Hell,
just be smart. Is it shouldn't be that hard. And
the beauty of a hurricane you see it coming three two, three, five, three, eight,

(01:30:29):
twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson Show to Twitter, you,
Instagram all of the other things you're missing. Show grabbed
the podcast.

Speaker 38 (01:30:35):
It is the Chad Benson Show, Son.

Speaker 1 (01:30:48):
Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show loses.

Speaker 13 (01:31:12):
Man, what.

Speaker 7 (01:31:18):
If you lose them?

Speaker 2 (01:31:21):
It does seem that way.

Speaker 36 (01:31:22):
You can't just be like like yeah, I'm like how
long do you think my prison said this is going
to be well, I see my children.

Speaker 25 (01:31:30):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:31:31):
Oh that right there. Elon, we were playing some stuff earlier,
but he was goofing around, you know, saying, look if
if if Trump loses, I'm absolutely which I thought was
kind of funny. He talked about a lot of different things.
One of the things he talked about was Epstein's list,
and I joke last night, I want to see Diddy's list, Right,
We're gonna throw Epstein's out there, but a little Diddy.

Speaker 10 (01:31:50):
You know.

Speaker 36 (01:31:50):
I think part of why Kamal is getting so much
support is that if Trump wins, that Stein client list
is going to become public. Yes, and some of those
blionaires behind Kamala terrified of that outcome.

Speaker 7 (01:32:01):
Do you think read Hoffman's uncomfortable yes and Gates and
Gates yeah, oo.

Speaker 2 (01:32:06):
Reid Hoffman Gates, holy quacom, I think we should see it,
don't you when you aren't you curious at all? There's
no conspiracy what this guy did. There's zero conspiracy about
how this was handled and what he did. There's no
conspiracy with Diddy all the bad things he did. The
conspiracy now is who's on the list, who will be
found out and who won't be found out? So un know,

(01:32:31):
if you guys are aware of this, there's a massive
storm coming. His name is Milton. Looks to be a dick.
We're going to throw that out there, and the potential
for him to do damage in Tampa and the surrounding
other areas is pretty damn big. Let's let's be real.
This all all kidding aside. It's massive. And then the
other side of massive is the cleanup from Helene and

(01:32:52):
the rumors.

Speaker 26 (01:32:53):
FEMA has been here, so has the National Guard. In fact,
FEMA's ain't assistance for Helen has already top two hundred
and ten million dollars and FEMA saying they put up
a website called Hurricane Heleen Rumor response.

Speaker 2 (01:33:06):
Because of all the rumors. Why, because there's a lot
of stuff out there, This bs and there's a lot
of stuff that's not I got said this. I'm sure
many of you've seen it. Some of it is well,
first of all, it's ridiculous. This is a FEMA meeting
from March of twenty twenty three talking about wacky crap intersectionality, right,
Like if you were to go to Central Cast and

(01:33:28):
give me five people and make them as liberal and
wacky looking as possible, this is what you get.

Speaker 39 (01:33:36):
Thinking about preparedness and how you said, you know LGBTQIA
people and people who have been disadvantaged already are struggling.
They already have their own things to deal with. So
you add a disaster on top of that. It's just
compounding on itself. And I think that is maybe the

(01:33:57):
why of why we're having these discussions because it isn't
being talked about, it isn't being socialized. We're not paying
attention to this community.

Speaker 2 (01:34:06):
So you want equity in the way that you distribute things.
That's what they're looking for, is you had equity in
the way that they distribute stuff. You've got to understand
something if you show up right pre the Biden administration,
the first thing they did was go where you fly
in a rainbow flag is if you are, you're not
getting any money till the straight folks do.

Speaker 40 (01:34:25):
New York City Boat Voluntary Organization's Active and Disaster has
a diversity, Equity and Inclusion and Anti Discrimination Pledge that
is required for the VOAD members. I suggest that everyone
contact New York City VOET, get a copy of it
and consider how to incorporate that in your jurisdiction. And
then as it relates to the spaces where we do

(01:34:46):
the work, look at how you talk about the people
behind their backs.

Speaker 2 (01:34:50):
I think we can all agree we all talk a
little mad smack front behind right to their face, doesn't matter.
I'm talking mad smack. But this is the one that
did get me, all right. So when things are going sideways,
when it comes to FEMA and your life is really
in a crapper, maybe you should think for a moment

(01:35:13):
about the trans person from a different country and how
they feel.

Speaker 41 (01:35:18):
There were those conversations not only migrant trans women. Being
a migrant trans woman, there is an undocumented concern. There
is also a concern of whether they would trust the
people places that are offering shelter that are faith based
because of the way they've been responded to in the past,
than if they are accepted, what would happen in terms

(01:35:40):
of misgendering in terms of bedrooms and bathrooms, et cetera.

Speaker 2 (01:35:45):
Yeah, this is why Trump, if you're concerned about trans
migrant women and whether or not the church that they're
staying at that's giving them shelter, it's going to misgender them.
And that's a big while the rest of the world burns. Wow,
that is ridiculous. I think we can all agree on that.

(01:36:07):
Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four to twenty
three At Chad Benson Show, is your Twitter tweet at
as texta program? You know, I could play a bunch
of wackiness. Okay, when it comes to you know so
and soose like administrative part of the administration, Somebody's come
out and she's like, look, if you criticize FEMA, it's

(01:36:28):
going to lead to people not trusting FEMA people. This
is what you need to understand. There's a lot of
people out there that don't trust the government. Some of
them don't trust the government because they think the government
is nothing but the all encompassing evil. Some of them
don't trust the government because they think you can't do
crap right, it's a different kind of trust there. So

(01:36:54):
one is you're evil, the other isn't. You guys are idiots,
you're in a effective you waste money and time. Those
are two separate things. Over the last couple of days,
it's the evil part and the ineffective part. Put them together.
What you have, well, you have usually some sort of

(01:37:15):
disaster relief. Do I think they've been evil?

Speaker 7 (01:37:18):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:37:18):
Do I think that they have? And whoever they are,
I continue to ask the question, who are they that
I hear about that control the weather? Because I got
several of those they control the weather, Chad, you don't know.
I need to school you in this. They do control
the weather? Who are they? And then everybody skips the

(01:37:39):
part about who they are? No, I'm curious who are
they that control the weather? So I had to go
doing even more research over this, and lo and behold,
I apologize. You guys are right, we do have forms
of controlling of weather that I was not really a

(01:38:00):
party two and you were able to show me. And
I appreciate that because a lot of times people are
just really mean and they're it's crappy, it's not. But
they were like, no, we really there is weather out
there that's being controlled. And I'm not just talking about
the cloud seeding. I'm talking about people who really control
the weather. And we have actually a team that does that.

(01:38:23):
It's called the X Men. Because I can control the weather,
they call me Stone Nature.

Speaker 17 (01:38:28):
Right, come on to right Thunder like me, Hi, summon
the fall the.

Speaker 2 (01:38:38):
Stone Chad, You're a jerk, Yes, you freaks. I've talked
about it. Have we tried to control stuff?

Speaker 7 (01:38:51):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:38:52):
Do we cloud seed?

Speaker 7 (01:38:54):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:38:54):
Have we tried other things? What about the laser beams?
Professor Kaku the scientist talks about the laser beams going
back years. Yeah, we've tried a lot of different things.
It's pretty cool. But the way that it's been pitched
is not the weather being controlled by cloud seating. No,

(01:39:15):
it's like, no, there's somebody out there like storm who
is controlling the weather and also destroying only Red States.
It was the other side of it, which is it's crazy.
And yes, I remember this going back, I think it's
been eleven years. Meet you Kaku, who's the you know,

(01:39:37):
scientist and professor over there in New York and everywhere.
You see him all over the place, and he talks
about Oh yeah, yeah, we got some control over some stuff.
But the difference between controlling the seating of clouds, which,
by the way, we're not making the clouds, they have
to be there, and actually controlling a three to four

(01:40:01):
hundred mile hurricane, those are separate issues.

Speaker 7 (01:40:03):
Having lasers, really they change the weather.

Speaker 2 (01:40:07):
That's right.

Speaker 19 (01:40:07):
Well, as Mark Twain once famously said, everyone complains about
the weather, but no one ever does anything about it. Well,
instead of doing a rain dance, we physicists are firing
trillion watt lasers into the sky to actually precipitate rain
clouds and actually bring down lightning bolts. This is potentially
a game changer, but this is experimental.

Speaker 7 (01:40:28):
It's experimental.

Speaker 19 (01:40:29):
However, in the laboratory so far it works. When you
have water vapor and you have dust particles or ice crystals,
you can precipitate rain. It condenses around the seeds. These
seeds can also be created by laser beams. By firing
trillion watt lasers, you rip apart the electrons, creating what
are called ions. These ions act like seeds like dust particles,

(01:40:51):
bringing down rain and even lightning.

Speaker 2 (01:40:53):
And then destroying Maui. So Oprah can run the place.
Conspiracies are easy to take off, and some conspiracies have
more than a sliver of truth. It doesn't help people
out there who are already susceptible because they're vulnerable, they're piste,

(01:41:16):
and they're angry, and now they're hearing things like they're
controlling the weather. So think about this. If you're a
person who has lost everything, you're trying to not just
dig out, you're trying to come to terms with everything's gone.
You're frustrated because you think the federal government's abandoning you,
and even the ones that are there they're stretched thin.

(01:41:40):
And then you're hearing conspiracy theories basically saying, yeah, they
wanted you guys to suffer because you may vote for
somebody and their power is so almighty that they can
control the weather to destroy you. Like, think that that's

(01:42:00):
that's not a good place for us to be. We
have tried to control the weather because that's what governments do.
We've tried all kinds of things, as has every other
nation that has some sort of capability to figure out
how to get this stuff done. Where you could seed
clouds to bring more water. They talked about it at

(01:42:21):
Chernobyl even during the Chinese Summer Olympics. So, but the
difference between trying to massage something so you have a
little bit more precipitation or cloudier cover so it's not
so hot in the Olympic situation, or maybe even what
went on with Chernobyl compared to here's a four hundred

(01:42:42):
mile hurricane that is flying at Florida that is bringing
with it death and destruction and some magical group unseen

(01:43:05):
can control it. That's a bridge too far, and I
don't think it helps. Three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show. Is
your Twitter tweet at as text the program? The guy
that I was chatting with last night, very nice guy
by the way. Uh you know again, I'm not saying
that we haven't tried, and I'm not saying that we
haven't modified weather. But there is a difference between what

(01:43:29):
people are claiming and what we can actually do. So
I think that's the issue right there, Bring it back
down to reality. Wrap it up straight ahead, my pillow,
right now. Baby moccasins. What are these moccasins. Well, they've
got men's and women moccasins. They're incredible the my slippers

(01:43:51):
are awesome, five dround colors. Choose from men and women,
two genders, I say, and they're awesome. So you've got
the sweating on the outside in the faux fur on
the inside, so no animal is harmed in the making
of the faux fur. You've got four different cushion tears. Okay,
so you got the MyPillow patent phil Boom memory gel
Boom gel. That is incredible. And then you've got this

(01:44:14):
memory phone. So you got the gel, the memory phone,
the patent, fill from my pillow, and the soul. It's incredible.
You can wear them indoors and no outdoors. Now normally
you would think, oh I could wear these at night. No,
wear them all the time. Go shopping in them, go
to amusement park, run a marathon. They're a macy and
they will last all day and all night. Why don't

(01:44:35):
you do this? Save one hundred dollars Go to my
pillow dot com slash pence check out all the deep
discounts on everything, but save one hundred dollars on the
my slippers just forty nine ninety eight. Go to my
pillow dot com slash pens and MyPillow dot com slash Benson.
Let's wrap this thing up straight ahead, shall we? On
this Tuesday? It is the chat Benson Shell.

Speaker 1 (01:45:05):
Funning with scissors sounds great compared.

Speaker 21 (01:45:07):
To this, say, well, I'm sure everyone has known someone
like viewer Cheryl Down's mother. She lived at ninety seven
years old, and Cheryl says that she loved beer, ice
cream and cookies until the very end. So Cheryl and
many of you want to know this, when it comes
to living a long life, how much of it really
does come down to your genes versus lifestyle. Who searches

(01:45:29):
estimate that genetics have around a twenty percent influence on
our longevity?

Speaker 2 (01:45:34):
All right, twenty percent? That's pretty good. That means there's
room for you to do better. And this is important
because more and more studies are coming out. Over the
last couple of days, two big studies have come out.
It says, have we reached our longngevity span? Is this?
Is it?

Speaker 7 (01:45:49):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:45:49):
Is maybe one hundred hundred and five? It is there
no top end? Are we going to max out? It's
a good question.

Speaker 21 (01:45:58):
So the good news is this, Even and if you
haven't won the genetic lottery, there's still plenty of things
that are within your control that can lead to a
longer and healthier life. By adding healthy habits like exercise,
especially weight resistance exercise, no smoking, getting a good night's sleep,
eating a healthy diet, you can significantly mitigate your genetic

(01:46:19):
risk for early death.

Speaker 2 (01:46:21):
And don't be a drunk because nobody likes a drunk
that lives along time. The smoking things a big deal,
So genetics plays a role, but there are other things,
as we all know, right, You eat healthy or at
least kind of healthy, move a little bit more, and
the stretching and weightlifting is becoming more and more important.

Speaker 21 (01:46:39):
Now, going back to Cheryl's mother, lifestyle factors are especially
crucial in the first seven to eight decades of your life,
but scientists believe that genetics do tend to take on
a larger role after that in later life. So that's
what may have been protective for her. Despite the beer,
ice cream and cookies.

Speaker 2 (01:46:58):
All right, screw that. Let's just say I don't want
to do any of that stuff. Is there a pill?

Speaker 22 (01:47:02):
Are these little pills the Fountain of youth. It's called
wrap amcin. Robert Berger takes the drug.

Speaker 11 (01:47:08):
How old are you, Robert, I'm sixty nine.

Speaker 2 (01:47:11):
You look good for sixty nine?

Speaker 11 (01:47:12):
How long have you been taking this drug since March?

Speaker 23 (01:47:15):
It looks like my gums and which I've had problems
with my whole life, have improved.

Speaker 22 (01:47:21):
He says he has more energy and hopes it will
extend his life. Rap Amcin is used by transplant patients
to keep organs from being rejected. It's been around for
fifty years, but now researchers are excited about another potential
use to stop the aging clock.

Speaker 2 (01:47:36):
To stop re urging clock. Yeah, because it does it
in mice, and so this has kind of become popular
somewhat affordable. Is this the pill?

Speaker 18 (01:47:47):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:47:47):
Could be rap of mice, because we're still looking for that.
And one thing though, as we look at nature and
as we look at medical breakthroughs, are we at the
longevity tip at this point in time? Maybe? But there's
also plenty of stuff we don't know, and through technology
and the growth of technology AI and stuff that may
improve our lives tremendously. One thing's for sure, we're healthier

(01:48:09):
longer than ever before, and we're able to do far
more later in our lives than ever before, which brings
us to this.

Speaker 8 (01:48:16):
And then I go and spoil it all.

Speaker 7 (01:48:19):
I say something.

Speaker 2 (01:48:20):
Stupid, it will take stupid tills this morning.

It's the honest ones you want to watch out.

Speaker 5 (01:48:25):
Full because you can never predict.

Speaker 2 (01:48:27):

Speaker 17 (01:48:30):
Now you're the fat, stupid one with the big mouth.

Speaker 1 (01:48:33):
Is stupid time.

Speaker 2 (01:48:36):
You should never underestimize the predictability of stupidity.

Speaker 6 (01:48:40):
Now it's time fall stupid information.

Speaker 2 (01:48:48):
As we talk about age and getting older, who was
the oldest person on record that people recognize? It was
a woman. She was French. She lived to be one
hundred and twenty two years old. Her name Jean Caliment.
She was born in eighteen seventy five and died in
nineteen ninety seven. Damn, that's a long time. I'll tell

(01:49:09):
you that right now. Three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson Shows your Twitter.
It's an amazing day up, a last day a Tuesday.
Go get yourself some tacos.

Speaker 7 (01:49:19):

Speaker 2 (01:49:21):
Shut up night, night Jack.

Speaker 1 (01:49:25):
