I'm trying to so I got let's see, swirls, infusions

Speaker 2 (03:50):
What they're doing is clearly competing with you know, the
McDonald's uh whatever they have Oreo. I forget what those
are called m McDonald's, but they're they're competing with that
because they've had just the run of the mill, you know,
Frosty's for years and years and years. So they introduced
these things and they've got you know, like a let's see,

(04:11):

chocolatey flavor providing classic frosty swirled brownie brownie batter. Uh.

Speaker 1 (05:35):
Chuck forty two? Win this last?

Speaker 2 (05:38):
I mean, he is we're talking at one point when
I when I met Chuck a million years ago, when
we first started our broadcast careers, when we went to
broadcasting school together. It was the three hundred and sixty
five pound Chuck that I that I knew and met.
Then Chuck's now down to under two forty eight thirty eight.
So yeah, he's and he's a he's a tall guys,

(06:00):
A big ye.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
That's awesome.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
It's good stuff.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
Man.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
Of the hardest things in life is somebody who you
gain a budget and to lose it. I mean, it's
it is really and I know, Congressman, you've never really
been heavy, but you work at it. I mean it's
a constant thing. You gotta do it daily, right, I
mean it's one of those things.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (06:20):
Well, I mean I like working out and uh probably
know I get after you know, at least six days
a week, so you gotta be just I like doing that.
So that don't think right when you're hanging out with
all those liberals. You don't think right if you don't
get to work out. I try to do it.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
That's a great area where you guys.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
I hopefully I'm allowed to say I've been and seeing that,
I hope I didn't. I haven't liked Yeah, yeah, so
I was. I actually have seen where they where they
work out. It's a it's a really cool it's a
really cool area.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
I know the political difference for you.

Speaker 5 (06:50):
We got the Republican congressman who's going.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
Yeah, man, I like to work out six days a week.

Speaker 5 (06:54):
You got Fetterman on the other side going get to
the beach, goes this bill.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
Oh yeah, I saw that. But you know what, I
feel kind of sorry for him because I can relate.
It's like, man, you just want to He's like, they're
staying and having us a god awful time in the
middle of the night or whatever he was saying, and
I was just like, he's like, there's got not gonna
be any surprises. I'm like, well, yeah, there are some surprises,
I think, and I don't know. That leads us into
this big, beautiful bill, and you know, people are going, oh,

(07:20):
is it gonna happen by July fourth?

Speaker 1 (07:22):
You know, the hell with that? Who cares. Let's just
we'll get it done.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
And you know, that's just gonna be one more thing
if if if President Trump doesn't get it, if you
got we don't get it all worked out by then
they're gonna.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
Go, oh see he can't.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
He doesn't have his people in line and all this stuff.
It's it's so silly. While they try every single way
they can. They fight so hard against this, and we've
talked about it over and over, and that's exactly why
people should be championing it and saying, oh, this is
why we need to be behind it, because they're so
against it.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
Right.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
Yeah, I don't know if it gets somebody the fourth
I hope it does. I think it can. I'm heading
back tomorrow morning. We're driving down actually tomorrow then got
to vote scheduled as early as possible, I guess Wednesday
morning possibly. So yeah, let's hope we get them. But
consumer confidence is up, the market is up, you know,
the the the the attack that on I ran taking

(08:12):
out their nuclear facilities.

Speaker 4 (08:13):
When as well as.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
You know, you can imagine, everything's easy moving pretty good.
So let's go ahead and get this bill done and
make sure people's taxes don't go up, make sure we
have the resources to secure the border, make sure parents
get this school choice option which will be great, and
of course uh and make able by the people who
are getting your tax money right now, who are part
of the welfare system, make sure they have to work.

(08:35):
So I think that's all pretty good. Let's let's just
get it done as quickly as we can.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
I don't know if you're able to speak on it,
but when you see Senator Tillis and and everything going on,
the controversy with all of that, and and I just
I'm I why don't we I mean, Veteran's the first
person we've seen as far as Democrat that, if you will,
and I don't even know that you called defect or
however you want to quantify it. But he's just more

(09:00):
it seems like he's just like a common sense guy.
And they're standing off to the side going shut up.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Shut up, stop talking, don't say nice things.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
And he's like the only one in recent memory. Yet
we keep piling up this list of people who say
they're go pers, but it's it is a head scratcher man.
They don't want to support this stuff. And I don't
know what your thoughts are, if you're or if you're
even able to speak about or you choose not to
talk about it.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
Well, yeah, no, I think I said this last week.
You know, I probably say it every time I'm doing
some kind of publican uh interview or something. You know,
it's a good bill because the Democrats hate it everyone,
But better than that is and and they hate it
because it truly does empower individuals, that empowers families, not
empowering government. And look, I wish it was cutting more more, uh,

(09:50):
you know, spending, but it is still pretty down good
piece of legislation that's doing the things as the President
and we all campaigned on. So I hope we can
get to both sport. I think we well you saw
that with the Motion to proceed, which is this culminary
motion they have bote they have to do before they
actually get to the actual legislation, and you always have
two votes rand Senator Paul and then of course Senator

(10:11):
Tillis coming coming at it from a different perspective, but
everyone else voted to move forward with the bill. So
I think it's I think it's going to pass in
the Senate to come back to the House, and I
think it'll pass there. And let's again let's hope it
all happens before July fourth, but if it doesn't, we're
still going to get it done here sometime real soon.

Speaker 5 (10:26):
The logical explanation for a lot of this, and I again,
you know we talk about he plays chess while they
play checkers. Look is spending going up in the bill yes, However,
revenue if the economic plan is followed, will go up
as well. Which balances Are we going to cut some
Medicaid people? Yes, stop saying Americans, because getting rid of

(10:47):
eleven to fifteen million illegals that are on Medicaid right
now will keep the money available to Americans. And this
is everything balances out in the bigger picture. But they
only want to see the negative, lefty, one view type
of thing, and that that frustrates me when Republicans go
out there and mouth of the same thing. I don't
like these Medicaid cuts. Shut up and read the bill

(11:10):
for goodness sake.

Speaker 1 (11:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (11:11):
Yeah, they always say drastic cuts, deep cuts to Medicaid. Well,
make an able bodied people on Medicaid actually have to
work to get your tax money is a good thing
for everybody, including the individual. And saying that if you're
an illegal immigrant here in the country, you're not gonna
get Medicaid, that's also a good thing for every America.
I mean, you just you just can go right in

(11:33):
the list. But they all drastic cuts. It's just it's
just not accurate. And I think the country has seen
through all that. They know what we campaigned on. This
is common sense, common sense things. Let make make sure
the tax cuts stay in place so people taxes, Bill
don't go up, saying hard working people, we're not going
to tax your tips, something President Trump ran on and
won on, and then the other things we just mentioned.

(11:55):
That's all just good common sense. So let's just pass
it and move on to the next thing.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
Yeah, and if you don't like it, we'll send you
to Alligator Alcatraz.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
How's that.

Speaker 2 (12:04):
We'll just move you right down to the Everglades and
we'll spend very little money on keeping you there because
our friends all around you will do that for.

Speaker 5 (12:12):
A stink in your button and put you in there.
And you know, Bill Clinton did the same thing. He
was he was applauded from both sides of the aisle.
He's the reason we have the term workfare. Yeah, it
was great under Clinton, but it's evil under Trump.

Speaker 1 (12:25):
Sure, I don't get it right, right.

Speaker 3 (12:28):
No, it's it just got it's good common sense. Let's
just get it done.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
Hey, So, seriously, your thoughts on Alligator Alcatraz too in Florida,
because it's just left their hair is on fire with
this too. I just I'm sorry I keep laughing about
this stuff. But it makes me so I mean.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
It makes me feel so hilarious.

Speaker 2 (12:47):
When I whenever I see this and I start watching
them all melt down.

Speaker 1 (12:50):
It's hilarious.

Speaker 3 (12:51):
Yah, yeah, they left. I mean something about the president,
he just he just sets them off. And at some
point you do, you do just laugh at it because
it is pretty It's just pretty funny the way the
President can do that. And yet uh so many Americans
appreciate it and they see it for what it is.
They laugh at it, and they appreciate the tough positions

(13:11):
he also takes. But the leftist loses of mine all
the time. Maybe maybe the problem is the left is
not getting enough of those those top tart propt Maybe
that's what they need and everything they got some.

Speaker 2 (13:23):
Of those also to real quick, Congressman, I love the meme.
That's like, you know, former McDonald's employee shuts down a
RAN's nuclear threat. It's like President Trump leaning out the
drive through window wave get so the master master troller. Man.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
That's just the only way I could say it. I'm
supersized the bomb. It's so great. It's so great. Congressman
Jim Jordan, thanks very much

Speaker 3 (13:49):
Thanks guys, Thank you we'll see

The Burden

The Burden

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
