Speaker 1 (00:11):
This is a Jesse Kelly Show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show on a Monday, back in the saddle with
you after a long frigging week, and I just needed
to be here, and what do we have this hour?
We're going to talk a lot more about how and
why the left pulled away, what's happening, what that means
(00:33):
for us as a country, what it means for them
as a party. We'll talk about that more in just
a few moments. But you know what time it is.
It's Monday. It's been all of honor Monday time. The
start of the second hour, every single second hour is
reserved for the warriors who have earned the Congressional Medal
(00:53):
of Honor. In case you're a new listener to the show,
every Monday, at this time, we take a medal of
Honors and we read it all of these citations that
look it's like reading an action movie. They're all available
to you. They're all available for free on multiple different
websites online. If you want to read about these heroes
(01:16):
and talk about their deeds as a parent, you can
do it. As a teacher. I know we have a
lot of solid teachers who listen to this show. There's
nothing going to get you in trouble about doing medal
of honor Monday if you are Sunday School, a coach,
whatever these stories. It's not just to honor the men
(01:38):
and their deeds, although that is a very, very big
part of it. It's about creating a culture in this
country that values heroism, heroism, values bravery, values defending the week,
that teaches men what their duty is in life. How
(01:58):
do we get to a country here, headline right here?
How do we get to a country that does this
ex marine Daniel Penny to stand trial for choking aggressive
black homeless man Jordan Neely to death on a New
York subway. How in the world could we get to
a place as a country where a former there are
no ex marines by the way, where the former marine,
(02:20):
Daniel Penny, he chokes out a drugged out, violent nutball.
How in the world is he facing years in state
prison in New York for standing up for the women
and children who were on that subway. How can a
society rot to this level? Well, the society has chosen
(02:41):
to value things that are evil and bad instead of
valuing what is good, Instead of teaching everyone that that's
what men are supposed to be and that's what Medal
of Honor Monday. That's part of what it's about. And
we take email recommendations. Remember I've I haven't given out
the email address because my brain is scrambled eggs. Jesse
at Jesse Kellyshow dot com, love Hey, death threats. Shut
(03:05):
up Chris. That's the first time during the show. Jesse
at Jesse kelly'show dot com. We also accept Medal of
Honor Monday recommendations. We got this one. We love these
if you have a relative or a family friend or someone.
We got this one from somebody. I would like to
nominate my uncle, Colonel Edward R. Showalter, Junior, for the
(03:26):
Medal of Honor Monday segment. My uncle was a career
Army officer who received the Congressional Medal of Honor for
action in Korea. During a battle, he was shot in
the head by a sniper and still commanded his men.
At the time, he was only twenty four years old.
He refused to be removed until the objective was taken,
(03:47):
but not until he had been wounded many times by grenade,
fragmentation and machine gun fire. I was told they had
to take a bone from his hip and skin from
the same location to graft him left arm back together again.
There is a lot of information on this incident in
his continued service online. He was wounded another time in Vietnam.
(04:09):
Of course, he was Instead of being buried at Arlington,
he wanted to be buried at Fort Benning. There is
also a training building named for him there. So that
was from the man's nephew. And I think it's a
good time to honor this hero, honoring those who went
above and beyond. It's Medal of Honor Monday, and this
(04:39):
is for an Edward writer. Show Walter, Junior, First Lieutenant Showalter,
commanding Officer, Company A, distinguished himself by conspicuous gallantry and
indomitable courage above and beyond the call of duty and
action against the enemy committed to attack and occupy a
key approach to the primary ejective. The first put tune
(05:00):
of his company came under heavy, vicious small arms grenade
and mortar fire within fifty yards of the enemy held strongpoint,
haulting the advance and inflicting several casualties. The second platoon
moved up in support at this juncture, and although wounded
First Lieutenant Showalter continued to spearhead the assault. Nearing the objective,
(05:23):
he was severely wounded by a grenade fragment, but refusing
medical aid, he led his men into the trenches and
began routing the enemy from the bunkers with grenades. Suddenly,
a burst of fire from a hidden cove off the trench,
he was wounded again. Although suffering from his wounds, he
refused to relinquish command and continued issuing orders and encouraging
(05:46):
his men until the commanding ground was secured, and then
he was evacuated. First Lieutenant Showalter's unflinching courage, extraordinary heroism,
and inspirational leadership reflect the highest credit upon him self
and are in keeping with the highest traditions of military service.
And I wanted to say something else about this, before
(06:06):
we get back to politics and left and right in
McDonald's and pulling away, and before we get back into
all that crap which I'll get into in just a minute,
I wanted to say just this. Sometimes those medal of
honors citations, the ones where the guy won't relinquish command.
He's taking command, he continues to lead his men. Sometimes,
depending on your life experience, maybe that won't hit home.
(06:30):
So I'm going to explain something to you here, something
that they used to train us. They used to teach
us this, and man, once you experience it, then you realize.
We would go through mock wars, mock battles. As you
get a matter, you've heard of these things. You will
assault a target. Here, you're in training, you're learning how
to patrol, how to attack, how to do these things. Well, eventually,
(06:56):
I remember when we were doing a lead up to
some training. This is one of my first time experiencing this.
We had been training on this weapon system and this
is where you stand, and this is where you look,
and this is where you crawl, and this is how
you take covering. We had gotten all this training and
so we thought to ourselves, we were trained up and
(07:17):
ready to go. There's nothing we can't do. And of
course we had even gone through the classes and we'd
figured everything out. We were young Marines and we knew
it all and we were ready to go, and we
take off on this. It was a shoot. So it
was it was we were had to approach a target
and assault a target. Only they had a surprise for us.
(07:41):
They said stop, stop, you know. Pause Essentially what they said, pause,
everyone freeze in place. Okay, it's kind of weird we paused,
but it's not that weird. If someone's doing something wrong,
it's in training. You get this stuff fixed. Pause everyone stop. Okay, no,
we do stop. They walk into our into our unit,
and they say, okay, you and you and you. They're
(08:03):
just pointing at random people. You. You're wounded. You, you're dead.
Lay down, you're not allowed to move again. You. You're wounded.
You're wounded. You're wounded. Lay down, you can't walk anymore.
You you can't walk anymore. You, you're dead. You. And
then they said to the unit, okay continue. Our first
(08:24):
time experiencing this, it was like we went from highly
trained marines to a fifth grade classroom once. Wait a minute,
what do I do this? You just said this guy's dead.
He has he has a critical piece of my mortar gear.
Oh well you better figure that out, Kelly. So okay,
(08:45):
what I have to get this? Okay, I have to
get this gear off of his body and character. Oh no,
the radio man is wounded. Okay, not only we have
to hold on, we have to get guys to drag
him to safety. We are still under fire. Someone has
to drag him to safety, get the radio off. And
then they kept doing it to us. Okay, the two
guys who were dragging the radio man boom. One of
(09:06):
them is dead. Now someone has to comfort. You find
how quickly a unit of even the highest trained men,
how quickly a unit can disintegrate once men start dying,
once men become incapacitated, once critical equipment is either out
(09:26):
of the fight or someone is carrying multiple pieces of it.
And in that moment, you understand the importance of leadership
and ways people who have never experienced that will never
ever ever get. And I should have read you had
this talk with you a long time ago, because we
do a lot of these where he wouldn't relinquish command
(09:48):
and he kept leading his men. It sounds great, and
I know you admire it, and I admire it, but
until you understand what that means. In that moment, you're scared,
you're done. Your friend is dead, he's screaming for mother.
I just dragged him to safety. What it means to
have a lion step up and say follow me, you
do this, you do that, Sit there, you go here,
(10:10):
we're going in it is everything everything. I don't even
know if I explain that properly again, because I have
scrambled egg brain. But I hope, I hope I brought
that home for you a little bit more. All right,
all right, let's go back and talk some more politics.
Shall we do this email first? I am going to
(10:31):
get to some emails tonight. I'm gonna try to get
to a lot of them. Jesse, I hope you had
a chance to review the information low so on and
so forth. I hope to get the opportunity to listen
to you on my way home. I also wanted to
thank you for the Burna recommendation. Our daughter is living
in New Jersey where she cannot have her gun, so
we ordered and sent her the Burna, which she'll receive today.
(10:54):
Berna is the non lethal pistol launcher. It shoots pepperballs,
tear guys balls. It is debilitatingly painful, but it is
not lethal. And the beauty of Berna is it is
legal everywhere all fifty states, no background check needed, no
(11:15):
permit needed. That daughter you sent off to New Jersey,
make sure she has a Burna pistol launcher. And there
they have a bunch of different ways she can carry
it comfortably. Make sure your loved ones every one of
them has a burn up pistol launcher. My mother has
one on our bedside, plus a gun burnat pistol launcher.
(11:37):
You want ten percent off It's by Rna Berna dot

and everyone in your family. Burna dot com slash Jesse

know why I came back so soon? Why did I
come back? Because I love you guys.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I guess you read Lobster has a free red Lobster
Food for a year contest. Don't waste your time. I'm
why are you going to win it? Thanks, have a
good night.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
You morons, and things like this.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
I've been the hospital of the and your resume I
had one. I've been in here a year listening to
you on kay Ah gen C. And what remains unclear
to me is if Chris is short for Christina.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Yes, yes it is. Let's get back to our show,
shall we. We we've been talking the theme tonight. Trump
goes to work at McDonald's. It goes to work a McDonald's.
He does a political stun at McDonald's and the people
love it. The people love it. Why do people love
it so much? Listen to this. It's it's a little
bit hard to hear, but I want you to listen
(13:32):
to what Trump says to this guy. This guy pulls up.
He's got this accent. But the guy says and something
to the effect of, I can't believe you're here. We
get to talk to you. We're just we're ordinary people.
Listen to what Trump says to you. Thank you, mister president,
to many many people like I mean, you made it
(14:00):
possible for ordinary people to meet you. You're not ordinary,
he says back to him. You spend time with normal people.
With other people. You will gain an appreciation for them,
you will lose the disdain, any disdain you may have
for them, and you lose any chance at having that
(14:22):
disdain for them. I you know, I've told you before.
It is a mark of pride for me that people
in prison listen to this show as we speak right now,
federal prison, state prison, people listen to this show. How
many shows have you heard brag about that. I'm very,
(14:45):
very proud of that. Why Look, I'm not going to
sit here and tell you everyone in prison is a saint.
There's a bunch of dirtball scumbags in there who should
be locked up the rest of their lives. But I've
seen enough of that side of life to understand not
all of them are. And a lot of people just
had a bad run of luck with family and everything
(15:07):
and made bad decisions lots of time not making excuses
for any of it, made bad decisions, and I have
a heart for those people. You lose your disdain for
people when you've walked in their shoes, and that brings
us back to the left. If you are a communist
in this country, now you can live your entire life
(15:33):
in the most insulated bubble in the world because you
took over all the institutions you can, especially if you
grow up in a blue neighborhood, you're going to go
to a blue school. Your teachers are all going to
be dirty comedies. That's very likely anyway. In your school,
they're going to teach you from a very early age
(15:55):
that America is evil and racist and it's all about
genociding the naval Native Americans, enslaving black people. And from
there you will go off to college. That'll be your
communist finishing school. That's where you will really, really, really
hone your America hatred skills. But beyond that, your chosen field.
(16:16):
Let's say it's not a political field at all, your
chosen field. And I just read you the list of
the different fields they've taken over in college. It's all
of them. They've taken over Mathematics. You know what, let's
just focus on that, but we'll make it forget all
the others. We'll set we'll set aside psychology, everything else, mathematics.
If you're gonna go be a math teacher, let's say
(16:39):
field you want to teach math, you're one of these
weird freaks who loves math. And that's what you intend
to do with your life after all that communist indoctrination. Well,
your finishing school in college will be all communists too,
and you'll be taught these horrible, evil things about how
math has to be equitable and whatnot. And then keep
(16:59):
a mind the other influences now that you go out
into the world. If you go watch the movies, who
makes the movies all dirty comies? If you sit down
and consume the news, you pick up the New York Times,
all dirty comies. You watch MSNBC all dirty comies. When
you're sitting around during the day, what do you do
you watch the View? What are you learning on the View?
(17:21):
But you're learning things like this, you're.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
Out hunting pheasants. YEP is not enough to convince people
there's a middle ground on this issue, because right now,
right now, right wingers are coming after you for how
you handle whatever.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Every single thing you consume in your life is left wing.
And the normal American, the average god loving America loving
American citizen who values right and wrong and family. Maybe
he wants taxes low, maybe cares about pro life. Maybe
the average person is not only somebody you don't know,
(17:59):
you don't have any respect for him at all. You
have total disdain for him because you have never walked
in his shoes. You don't know anything about him at all,
and therefore you end up hating him. And when you
do get challenged, it comes off like this.
Speaker 5 (18:15):
Frankly exhausted of Bratton more than herself to.
Speaker 6 (18:18):
Tell the country is on the wrong track. They say
the country is on the wrong track. If it's on
the wrong track, that track follows three and a half
years of you being vice president and President Biden being president.
That is what they're saying, seventy nine percent of them.
Why are they saying that if you're turning the page.
You've been in office for three and a half years.
Speaker 5 (18:40):
And Donald Trump has been running for office, but you've
been the person home on the office.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
She sounds like, I'm moron. Hey, maybe she just needs
a female vitality stack, you know what, Chris, That's probably
what it is. It's not that she's been living in
a bubble. Listen, Chris, it's not that she's been in
this left wing bubble. She has been taking her female
vitality stack from chok Ladies. You didn't think, you didn't
think chalk was just for men? Did you the natural
(19:09):
herbal supplements at chalk and hold on, let me check
my calendar. I've been out. Oh look at that. It's

c ho Q dot com. Promo code, Jesse, we'll be back,
what Chris. We can make jokes. It's fine, we get
that right. The Jesse Kelly Show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show on a Monday. Gosh, I have missed you,
(19:59):
so free botch. All right, so let's try to wrap
up this portion of this joke because I want to
move on to voicemails and emails and other things about
how out of touch they are, why they're so out
of touch, and how it affects them. Here's a great example.
Have you ever flown on a private jet before? Probably not,
(20:20):
most people have not. Don't feel like you're abnormal if
you never have this is something that doesn't happen. I
have a few times. I have always told you about
it when I get to do it. It's none of
it were they were None of them were my jets.
I was always hitching a ride with the rich guys.
So going somewhere. Believe me, no one ever said a
(20:42):
private jet for me. Okay, these days are not going
to happen for me. But listen, I don't think so anyway.
But let me explain something. I'm going somewhere with this.
Stay with me, because this goes right to how out
of touch they are and why they can't connect. Why
they're having such a difficult time connecting. Why can't they
pretend to be normal? Why is Dome losing working class voters?
(21:04):
Why is she losing men?
Speaker 5 (21:06):
What?
Speaker 7 (21:06):
Why?
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Why? Why? You know who Lizzo is. She's a big singer,
big music artist, lady. She was at a Kamala Harris
rally and everyone has been making fun of her for
a few days because she said that I'm so proud.
Speaker 7 (21:20):
To be from this city. You know, they say, if
Kamala wins, then the whole country will be like Detroit.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
What you have any idea what kind of a living
hell it is in Detroit now for normal people. And
I know I'm gonna say this, and I'm gonna you're
probably gonna take this the wrong way. I'm a Detroit
(21:48):
fan because Detroit is one of those cities that helped
build America. I like working class people, I like the
industry there, and what they've done to Detroit just freaking gut.
I hate it. I hate it, But Detroit now it's
a place you flee. If you have to work there,
you work out of town. You get out to the
(22:08):
burbs as fast as you can. Detroit for normal people
is a war zone. Do yourself a favor. Look up
to just do an Internet search sometime for Detroit abandoned
real estate. You can do it on your phone if
you're not driving to it. Look it up, Chris, look
it up right now, Detroit abandoned real estate. And it looks,
(22:34):
honestly what it looks like. It looks like one of
those big cities China built that no one ever occupied.
And you just have these buildings, these homes that just
stand empty and just follow to disrepair. It's it's awful.
So how could you say this. Why would you say
something like that.
Speaker 7 (22:51):
You're so proud to be from this city. You know,
they say if Kamala winds, then the whole country will
be like Detroit a haha.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
She's so stupid. How could she not know? Well, let's
go back to the private jet. Then, when I flew
on a private jet. You know, you know how we
normally have to go to the airport. You show up
hour hour and a half early, depending on whether or
not you're checking luggage. Oh no, no, no, you don't do
that with a private jet. In fact, you don't even
(23:22):
really go to the airport. You're always in the viscenity
of the airport because you use the same runway, but
they're on a completely separate part. In fact, get this,
hit this, you want to get this. You know the company,
you know the company that was doing the private air travel.
Do you know what the company was called? They still exist?
In no way dogging on them. Maybe they're great, maybe
(23:44):
they're terrible. I don't know. But the company is called
million Air hah haha, a little clever play on words millionaire.
So you don't show up an hour and a half
before your flight. You drive up to the gate it's
locked cage security and you have to get through security,
press little thing. Hey who are you? I'm Jesse Kelly.
(24:06):
I'm on this flight. Oh okay, come right in, mister Kelly.
Mister Kelly. You pull through the gate, you will possibly
have to go through, probably have to go through another
gate to get out to the runway. Oh you didn't
think you were going to have to haul your bags,
did you. You drive out through the other gate onto
(24:26):
the runway. You drive right up to your private jet.
You were not going to touch anything. You might have
to pop the trunk. They will quickly take your keys
from you because they'll handle the valet thing from here.
They're taking all your bags out of the car, usually
before you can get out, and they're loading them onto
the private jet. You you will turn and you will
(24:48):
look at the private hanger. And in the private hanger,
I'll never forget it. There's a fleet of cars that
look like it belongs to some kind of rap mogul.
It's Lamborghini, Ferrari, Mercedes. It's just as fleet of cards.
What are those there for? That's where they're keeping the
cars protected for the people. When they come back, your
car will be pulled in there. You're getting on the
(25:11):
plane and you think, oh, wait, no I have to pee.
Oh well, no problem, it's your plane. Take as much
time as you like, turn around, walk into the private hangar,
you want to use a bathum, use a bathroom, You
need to take a phone call. Take a phone call.
It's your plane. You then will get on your plane.
And I was just so floored by the whole thing.
(25:31):
You'll then fly to wherever you're going, land at another
private terminal, just like the one I just described. The
last time I did this, I think I've done this
three times in my entire life. The last time I
did this, I was flying with some big shot who
I'm not going to name. But we landed. It was
in California where we landed. We landed and it was
(25:52):
like the scene out of a movie's and aub was
with me, My wife was with me, and we were
doing the best we can to try to play it cool,
but we kept looking at each other saying, oh my gosh.
They put down the stairs of the plane, and by
the stairs of the plane was a fleet, not one,
a fleet of private black SUVs waiting, all of us
(26:17):
security standing around it, doors open like you're some kind
of rock star. We got in because we had to
go to this event. We got in where we drove
out of the private terminal in this caravan like we're
kings and queens and drove to some five star resort
immediately where they were waiting for us. For Lizzo. How
(26:38):
could you be so stupid? How could these people be
so out of touch to say things like this.
Speaker 7 (26:42):
Don't proud to be from this city, you know, they say,
if Kamala winds, then the whole country will be like Detroit.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
What is Detroit to Lizzo. It's not abandoned buildings, it's
not warzone crime, it's not poverty, it's not stores selection,
restaurant selection getting worse by the day as businesses pack
up and leave. They haven't watched their schools fall. Lizzo
hasn't watched any school fall to disrepair. She doesn't drive
the pothole roads. Lizzo gets on a private jet at
(27:13):
a private terminal and flies in Detroit and lands at
a private terminal until the stairs come down, and she
gets on, gets in her car with their security in
her private fleet, and they whisk Lizzo. Well, they may
have some reinforced shocks on her vehicle, but they whisk
Lizzo away to her five star resort. And when she
does leave the five star resort, she's of course going
(27:34):
to some big arena, some rally somewhere.
Speaker 8 (27:37):
Oh, Lizo will.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Love you can have your autograph with you.
Speaker 8 (27:41):
And everything about Detroit is perfect when you're Lizzo. And
that is the world communists have built, the elite Communists
have built for themselves in this country. And that's why
they can't relate in any way to you, in any.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
Way to what you go through, what your life is like.
It's why Dome sat down with Al Sharpton, who hates me,
by the way, how the feeling is mutual. Al Sharpton
and Dome sat down together to discuss the economy. And
this is while people can't afford the rent, they can't
afford a home, they can't afford groceries. They've watched their
(28:20):
standard of living go away. And they think this is
an answer to the questions people have.
Speaker 5 (28:27):
And asked this question about how will this affect my
life In terms of a voter worrying about the fact
that look price of grocery is still too high.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
I get it.
Speaker 5 (28:39):
They get it, and what are we doing to help
them actually get through life in a way that they're
not just getting by but getting ahead. We have to
have specific policies that do that, and that is what
I offer under what I call an opportunity economy approach.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
What comfort is that to the family trying to figure
out if they have to move back in with their
parents right now? None, of course, but they can't relate.
All right, Let's do some emails, in fact, some emails
along these lines and other things. Let's move on from
all this. Let's first talk about, well, how's this for relating?
(29:19):
My friggin foot started hurting. Happened in Montana last week,
and it wasn't going away. At first, I thought I
had just hit it on something. It wasn't going away.
It wasn't a certain part of my footnote, it wasn't
the not the sea urchin foot, Chris the other foot.
And it just kept nagging at me and nagging at
me and nagging at me. And I thought to myself,
(29:40):
you know what, this is exactly why relief factor is there.
So I started a relief factor again. It's a daily supplement.
Five days later, five days later, and it was brutal.

Download a podcast on iHeart, Spotify iTunes. Speaking of out
of touch, I have a cool, kind of a wild
(30:50):
story about this life that you and I will never
know about. And really we will never know about it,
either of us. I don't care who you are. You're
never gonna know about it. I'm never going to know
about it. But you get little clue of this world
you didn't know existed in my time in Montana this
last week. This is not political, I should note. In
my time in Montana this last week, I got to
(31:11):
talk to a guy. He was wealthy. He's certainly not
a billion ar type, but a wealthy, retired guy. And
he had worked for his life. He had worked in
the finance industry doing something I won't go into. It
was all about your business restructuring. Honestly, it was a
lot of heavy stuff. But he was constantly working with major, major,
(31:34):
powerful organizations. Now these two were not part of it,
but his life was. He was working with Nike, and
then he'd work from Nike to work with Coca Cola.
That was that kind of world. And it's just this
story blows me away. One of his things he was
working on. At one point, we were just sitting around
the fire telling stories one night with my mom and
(31:56):
family and just coming together and just enjoying ourselves, trying
to take our mind off things. He was talking about
a Las Vegas casino. Now, this is a Las Vegas casino.
You would know, even if you've never been to Las Vegas,
don't care about Las Vegas. If you if you are
aware of the existence of Las Vegas, you've heard of
(32:16):
this casino. I'll put it that way. It's a private story,
so I don't want to go any further, but let's
just say you would know it. Right. He was working
with them because they had gotten themselves into some debt problems.
And he's going through their books and he's looking at
their books and he says, you just spent another You
(32:37):
just spent another fifty million dollars on private jets. The
casino owns you are on the verge of bankruptcy. Why
are you Why are you buying a fleet of private jets?
But what are you doing? And they said, you don't understand.
We need them and we cannot operate as a casino,
(33:00):
you know without them. If we don't have these private jets,
these fancy private jets, then you might as well close
the doors. We're going to go under. And he's going
through this business meeting with him, and he said, okay,
what explain that to me? All right, So allow me
to explain it to you. You and I think casinos
(33:22):
make their money from me. I'm not a big gambler,
but we think they make their money from people like us.
You walk in, maybe you put a couple bucks in
the slot, machine. Maybe you drop one hundred bucks on
the blackjack table and have a cocktail with the wife
after dinner one night and go up to your room.
And we think that's where casinos make their money. Surely
(33:42):
it's people like us, right, And if you had asked
me before this conversation, that's what I would have told you.
We said, Jesse, it's not true. Yeah, you me, We
kind of keep the lights on, but that's not where
casinos make their money. Casinos make their money from a
private part of the casino. You will, i'll ever see,
and in fact, you didn't know exist, and I didn't
(34:04):
know existed until a few days ago. You see, we
walk into a big casino, and this is not the
casino I'm talking about. So I'm just gonna go ahead
and name it. Just know that I'm making up this name.
The Bellagio. It's a big Las Vegas casino. You walk
into the Bellagio if you ever have, and you see
blackjack tables and slot machines and things like that. That's
what you see. But there is a private area of
(34:28):
the Bolagio. And so this guy's having this conversation with
the casino. You can't buy the private jets. They're explaining
to them why, and they say, well, here's how we
make money as a casino. We make money from wales,
not jet not the actual whales. Obviously hugely rich guys,
to which he responded. He says to them, okay, well
(34:49):
where do they play? And the casino says, oh, we
have private areas for them. And he said, okay, well
who gets to go back there? Guys like Michael Jordan.
That was a name he dropped. And remember, Michael Jordan
is worth a billion dollars, a very very wealthy man, Michael.
Guys like Michael Jordan. They laughed in his face and said, no,
(35:11):
Michael Jordan doesn't get to come back here. And he said,
excuse me, Michael Jordan, greatest basketball player of all time,
billionaire in his own right, He's not allowed in the
secret part of your casino. And they said no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
You don't understand. This is for saudy trillionaires. This is
(35:35):
for Chinese billionaire. Not that he has two billion, he
has three hundred billion. This is so the casino, at
its own expense, will spend ten to fifteen billion dollars
for a round trip seat. They will take this private
(35:58):
jet and fly into Saudi Arabia to pick up the
Saudi trillionaire prints. Then they will fly him back. Oh,
I should note if he wants to smoke cigarettes on
the plane, He's allowed to do whatever he wants to do.
Fly there, pick him up, fly him back to the casino.
He's not going to mingle with the commoners with you
(36:21):
and me. He'll never see the casino floor. He is
whisked from the private part of the private airfield to
a private area of the casino you didn't even know existed,
where he will proceed to lose fifty to sixty million
dollars a night paying for the jet, justifying the cost.
(36:42):
And that's why those big fancy lights stay on in
Las Vegas? Can you believe that that is the private world?
I never had any idea existed. Oh, if you had
asked me, did I think there was a private room
where Michael Jordan and George Klooney can gamb Well, of
(37:03):
course I know that you know that you're not a moron.
Morons we understand that. Oh, there's a whole private area
and a whole private business aspect to things that normal
people like us will simply never ever know. Isn't that
wild wild? That doesn't sound like a fun business. Can
you imagine how high maintenance these people are? And well,
(37:26):
that brings me to the story of the Russian oligarch
who committed suicide. Talk about that. We'll do some voicemails,
some emails. Let's get back to politics. But first let's
talk about your dog and your cat. Everyone knows. See,
here's what happened. Rough greens. You know what it is,
(37:47):
natural nutritional supplement for your dog. Because dogs don't get food,
don't get any nutrition from their food. So naturopathic doctor
Dennis Black came up with rough greens and they started
advertising it. People are seeing so much difference in their
dog that rough Greens has grown and grown and grown
and grown and grown. Veterinarians across the country use it.
(38:09):
It's just it went gangbusters. Because you don't have to
take my word for it. You see differences in your dog.
Roughgreens decided to expand it to cats. So you cat
lovers and dog lovers get some rough Greens for your
puppy and your cat. It'll live longer, live healthier, fewer
