anything that it's not.

It.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Don't try to get fancy. You got a picture on
the homepage. It says call us at the top line,
call us in Livingston, Texas at eight six six seven
two one sixty seventy eight. Why do they have an
eight sixty sixth number? That don't make no sense? But
who's paying tolls to call them? Don't you have to
(03:56):
pay extra for eight sixty six number. That's crazy. That
really makes no sense to me. I wonder why they
have an eight sixty sixth number if they are paying
for their phone calls. Somebody please tell them to stop.
So what you been there? Yeah? Yeah, I remember you
(04:19):
took the boys. So right at the top you got

have to root around a while to find the phone

(07:00):
some awards that they've won over to this hours of operation.
See this. This is a master class in how you
do a website. The problem is every sixty every fifty
to sixty year old white dude that has a company
that they've had for a long time, their daughter goes
to college and they're so proud of their daughter. She's
(07:23):
gone off to college and she's joined the sorority and
they're spending so much money on her there and she's
partying and having a good time. She graduates and they
go up and they do the ring ceremony and they
drink the wind. They buy all the gear, and they
go to the football games. And she graduates and she
comes home and they don't know what she's going to do.
So she goes to work at the company and she
(07:44):
walks in the doors of the company like she built
the damn place when that company was good enough to
raise her in comfort and pay her way all the
way through school. So she didn't have a dollar of debt.
Oh but she has a marketing degree. Now, if I've
seen this story once, I've seen it hundred house. She's
got a marketing degree now and she got it from
the University of Texas or Texas A and M Universe.
(08:07):
So now she's gonna handle the mark. Oh no, this website,
this won't work. So she complicates everything, screws everything up,
has nothing to do, and would hate the very people
who are customers there. But old dad, he's proud and
he don't know any better. Hey, you need to fix
your website. Well you had to talk to my daughter. Shit,
that's the problem. Your daughter's a problem where you have.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Came to the right place because Michael Berry. Get on him.
Blow it all out, baby, I.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Don't want to coffee a team now you know why
Rush called Kamala Harris. Willi Brown's mattress. Willie Brown's mattress
is out hawking her book. At one stop, she weighed
in on Jimmy Kimmel's suspension, blaming Trump's fragile ego.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
But I'll tell you who refuses to cofitulate the people
when a president with a fragile ego could take a
joke and brought down the weight of the federal government
to silence the voice of a citizen. Folks spoke with
their pocket books.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
This week, and Jimmy Kimmel is now back on the air.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
That's not what happened. It's not what happened at all.
Hollywood elites wanted to stick it to Trump, so they
called a meeting with Bob Iger of Disney and demanded
that he put him back on. And he equ and
he quaked, and he did. It's as simple as that,
No pocketbooks. Jimmy Kimmel was last in the ratings for
(09:38):
his day part among the major networks. And that's saying
something because it's not strong competition. But you know, there's
something about her mouthing off like this. There's something about
mouthy women like this. And you see the comparisons between
her and Lena Hidalgo. There's a lot of very tough talk.
(09:59):
Do you ever notice Kamala Harrison and the reason this
happened was because this president can't take a joke. He's weak,
He's not tough. Bitch, you're drunk ninety nine percent of
the time. You are mixing a cocktail of valium and
(10:24):
wine and tears to help you get through every minute.
You're married to a beard who knocked up his babysitter
for his daughter. Yeah, yeah, that's who you are. And
(10:46):
the child they have is a dude that runs around
as a little pixie Dylan mulvaney, angry as all get
out and absolutely bat crap crazy, and every body knows it.
Your life is in shambles. Shambles. You do not need
(11:09):
to be out here taunting other people. It's not a
good look. But do you notice she and Lena Hidalgo
had this in common? Number One? They talk very tough. Oh,
they're very tough. Lena Hidalgo is very tough. Remember what
she said about kim Ogg. I don't know what this
(11:31):
bitch has on, y'all. I don't know. I don't know
if she was suggesting that kim Ogg was seducing them,
or if kim Ogg was threatening them. But her voice quivering,
She's talking tough and cursing and foul mouth, and in
(11:53):
all the while, at any moment, you can tell she's
ready to just go and start crying and run off
to the concert and leave the commissioner's meeting. She's always
just on the verge of crying over whatever is happening.
She's so frustrated. She can't get her away, she can't
(12:15):
outsmart anyone. No one respects her and no one ever
has because she's not earned it. She's this little she's
like she's liked the child. She's like little Kim in
North Korea. You know, he one day he wakes up
and he's he's going to be the Grand Dictator. So
now all of a sudden, instead of you know, North
(12:37):
Korea having been born from a star from the constellation
and that became North Korea and that was actually his father.
And you know, he hit twenty eight holes in one
and you know runs a two minute mile and oh yeahs,
Grand Leader, you did it well. Now Tubby, now we
got Tubby. He's the greatest of all time. He's done
all these great things because he was just in the position. Well,
(13:02):
that's Lena Hidalgo and frankly that's Kamala Harris. When Sandy Peterson,
our research director, put together the intersectionality score of twenty twenty,
this was the absolute height of DEI, the absolute high point.
And she put together a scoring system of I don't know,
it must have been twenty things. You know, if you
(13:24):
were gay or lesbian, transgender, non white woman, stupid, all
the things that you know, foreign, all the different things
that you needed to be. She had the high score
by far. And then there's a true lefty to his credit,
he's an actual died in the wool believer lefty communist
(13:45):
socialist who got rich off the process, Bernie Sanders. But
he's he's white. But anyway, we thought Kamala would fare
better than she did. She wasn't even still in the
in the primary as of Iowa. But there she is
talked to tough. Now Trump, it's just not tough enough.
You've gotta be tough. But all the while she's got
(14:07):
to be zonked out of her mind in order to
appear in public. That's the reason for the drunken rambling.
She knows that people are laughing at her behind her back.
She knows she is a walking meme. She knows nobody
respects her. But the whole thing she has to do
is just keep moving forward, keep moving forward. And she
(14:31):
looks like somebody walking into the courthouse after they've been
on the run and their crimes have been revealed, and
they are absolutely the pariah of society. And the goal
is just keep walking, just keep walking, one step after
the other. Ones that get in, get in the courthouse,
get in the courthouse, get in the courthouse. She has,
she has that stride about her and all the while
(14:56):
she Lena Hillary. All the while they can keep telling you, everybody,
y'all get excited. I'm a girl, I'm a girl.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
We're doing girl power.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
And the reality is the true reality. Trust me on this, fellows.
Women are not excited, women are not thinking. Finally one
of us broke through because women don't identify with these
types of women. Women don't like these women. They don't
(15:28):
have a girlfriend like this. They didn't go they didn't
go to college with a girl like this. They didn't
study with a girl like this. They didn't work, they
didn't trade shifts at the restaurant. With a girl like this,
they don't call and talk about what they're going through
in life. With a girl like this, they're not there
to take care of the three kids at home while
the woman is having another baby and says, don't worry,
(15:49):
I'll take care of your other kids. Women like that
aren't like that. They're not like normal women, and normal
women know this.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
It's a shame.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
It's a damn shame.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
It's a damn Look at Sam Kinnison said, Okay, she's
going along talking and all of a sudden he just
starts screaming.
Speaker 7 (16:06):
Spend my whole life with you because it came in
your drink, what you touch my vers. You always showed
me that loving.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
You is well, that's that you made me so very happy.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
I'm so glad for our next trip. We play a
Kamala Harris clip that is an odd combination of her
word salads and an outrageous claim made by the previous
borders are. What's interesting about this is you get these
(16:46):
these women who are pathetically narcissistic, and it really is.
It's sad because everything about them is them. Look at
me over here, look at me. I'm over here. Look
at me, I'm here. Oh my god, I've just won
this award. I've just won this other award. I've just
won an award for winning awards. I've just won an
(17:08):
award for winning an awards for winning awards. And this
is me and I'm over here. Oh my goodness, I've
been honored to chair here. Oh my god. You won't believe.
Last night I was chairing and they gave me this trophy.
Oh my god, look at me, and everyone wants me
to run. I don't know if i'll run. I may run.
I'm awesome. Girl power. We're gonna get the girls together.
Everybody's gonna be proud.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Girls.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Girls are in charge. Girls, girls, girls. If this is
what it means for girls to be in power, then
we don't want them because you're awful. There are very
good women running for office and you are an embarrassment
to that. And that's how most women feel. And that's
the reality. And frankly, most black people don't like black
politicians either, Democrat politicians. They don't like that the Sylvester
(17:50):
Turners and Rodney Ellis's and Shila Jackson Leeze claim to
speak for them. They don't like it not one bit.
Go to a barbershop and listen to what people really say.
Doesn't mean they won't vote for them. They will, it's
still hard for them to break that. So here is
Kamala Harris claiming people just hand her babies, they pass
them through the crowd. This my baby. Give this baby
(18:13):
to Kamala.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Kamla's up there.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
If Kamala was to bless this baby, he could just
touch the him of her garment.
Speaker 5 (18:21):
Oh something, you know. One of my favorite things to see.
And it would always happen spontaneously at our rallies and
thousands of people would come and there it would happen.
Is invariably somebody would want me to take a picture
of a husband child and someone in the back would
(18:44):
hand that baby over.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Up to you.
Speaker 8 (18:49):
People, hold on, ramon, hold on, She's not just gonna
tell the lie what I was saying.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
She gonna sigh eye you.
Speaker 8 (18:59):
She's gonna show you does she meanness? She gonna side
out you and you won't believe it. People would they
would It's like.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
The pathological liar, Remember John loves people would they would
uh uh they would uh they would uh they would
hand me they baby? Really, Yes, yes, and and then
they would name their baby after be right on the spot.
(19:30):
Really yes, And then they would worship me.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Really oh yes.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
And then they would they would just they would just
be passing babies. It would be a sea of babies.
Oh my goodness. It was like a whole bust full
of babies. And somebody hit the brakes and all the
babies flew forward, and they said, Kama Lo will catch them.
She said, because Mama Love will take care of them.
It's just not only does she live, but she just
(19:58):
hands it up.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
Past the baby and then past the baby. And I
don't know, there was something about that when it would happen.
I mean, I could get very dedotional about it right now,
but you know, I don't believe that we should always
feel about the children of the community. Are the children
(20:22):
of the community of all of us, that.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Our next leaders, our next thinkers, are next, and.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
That we all participate in caring about that child and
in caring for that child. And there was just something about.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
That travel from the parents, yes, and the.
Speaker 5 (20:41):
Parents trusted the stranger that was next to them, who
trusted the next person, and all of them as though
it was their own child. There was something so magical
in many ways about that and about affirming about you
can create an environment where people feel safe and feel
(21:02):
a sense of communal responsibility and community. Yeah, you know,
many of us had the blessing of growing up where
you know, the neighbors were watching out for all the kids.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Right, it was a neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
Your neighborhood was the community.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
Right.
Speaker 5 (21:15):
Read so much about where we are right now that
has caused people to feel alone or to feel outside,
they don't belong. And this was just the opposite of that.
And and I hold on to that. I talk about
that kind of thing in the book, and I hope
that there is something about.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
She just they just handed. They're like, Mama, to take
my baby. Bless this job, Mama.
Speaker 5 (21:43):
Still those people.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
Come through several videos of her rallies, and it turns
out this odd phenomenon never happened. Ramon has a theory
about this story, and he wrote a song about it.
Go ahead on Ramone, Go ahead on.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
The crowd.
Speaker 7 (22:05):
Press clothed the lies. Why Camara took the stage, gave
it all she got. She said, hands reached up, I fell.
The love so true, But it wasn't Babies, y'all it
was barbottles of that ninny brou pass me them babies,
(22:31):

ain't in dippers. Theyreing bottles for the ride, and cold
mama's in the crowd. Daddy is true. They didn't have
me chargers.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
They pass me boozze.
Speaker 7 (23:06):
Little babymakers mark with a passifier.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Tar bunches start passing.
Speaker 7 (23:11):
Babies like this.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
It's two lady stuff.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
YbI o kay ibi, okay, hey, he's an old.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
College and Michael Berry.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
YbI o kay.
Speaker 6 (24:13):
So.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
I spent years of my life obsessed with municipal government.
I find municipal government to be very interesting because for
all the talk on Fox News, municipal government is where
the rubber hits the road. If if you've got crime
on your street, you can sit and watch Fox News
(24:37):
all day. But the chances are Donald Trump or Mike
Johnson and Pete Hegseth are not going to be especially
if you're in a red state. They're not going to
be coming to your rescue. It's going to be your
local cops. And for years I have said, I don't
care how rich you are, even a billionaire. I guess
you could have your own healthcare staff. But that's all
(24:59):
the never. I mean, Americans don't spend That's what people
do in third world countries. Americans are ashamed to spend money.
It's it's an interesting thing because they don't want to
be perceived as having things that are nice. It's in
this country it's we're kind of at a French revolution
point where everybody wants to pour mouth. Nobody wants to
you know, like, the only people who want to act
(25:21):
rich are rappers. You notice this. Rappers are the only
ones that are like, look at this, Look at me
slapping this cash out my hand. That's right, Look at
my lambbow. I got my McLaren, I got my mind, bog,
I got bitches, and then more bitches, and then I
(25:42):
got hoes and bitches and hoes and cars and hoes
and money and houses, and look at me, I'm rich
and they can't afford a penny of it. And then
you got dudes that are actually rich, and they got
their head down. They're driving themselves. They don't dare having nobody.
They don't wear their nice watch because they're afraid of
(26:03):
getting knocked in the head. They occasionally will go over
to River Oaks District for ten minutes, but that might
get mugged at any moment. It's a funny thing how
that works. But I have said for years people don't
realize how important their local government, especially Republicans, and so
they don't have anything to do with it, so they
never take control of it, and you end up with
(26:24):
the wrong kind of people in charge. And if the
wrong kind of people were in charge of your local
sports team, they would never win a game. You'd do
something about it. You're terrible. But when it comes to
municipal government, people just leave. They just move out to
Chapel Hill or Belleville or Brenham or Columbus or round Top.
(26:46):
They just move the woodlands. So I've said for years
that city government is very important, and so people would
always say to me, well, I don't care. I don't
live in the city, all right, fair enough, you don't
live in the city, so you will never have need
for HPD or the Houston Fire Department. Well, I don't
live in the city, okay, live in the woodlands, all right.
I mean Rockets Gams yo two oh probably ten. I
(27:08):
mean Astros Gams yo two twenty? How many? Okay, So
there's thirty times you're going to be in the city
of Houston for a number of hours. Where do you
work downtown? Okay, let's go through. Yeah, as it turns out,
you spend more hours, you spend more non sleeping hours
in the City of Houston than you do in the Woodlands.
(27:30):
So but you don't You don't know anything about it
or care anything about it. You just hope when the
call has made that people you had nothing to do
with being there will arrive. So yesterday at eleven oh one,
in the middle of the call goes from eleven oh
one to eleven oh two. Stuff burns in my mind.
I don't know why it's weird. And it's my wife.
And when I tell you my wife doesn't cry, my
(27:52):
wife doesn't cry. I do. But she is very stiff
upper lip. Her father was the same way. And she said,
as in a very firm tone, not nervous, not panicked.
I want to be her when I grow up. She's
so tough. She said, you need to go see dad
right now, just like that. And I said no. She
(28:17):
said you need to go see dad. Yeah, yeah, you
need to go see dad right now. And I said okay.
And I could tell she's never told me to do that.
And we had just gotten off the air, and I
said I didn't want to ask because I thought maybe
he's passed, and because he'd been in the hospital all
(28:38):
the way up till Saturday, and we've just had one
scare after another scare after another scare. It's been rough.
She said, you need to get there fast, so don't
have to tell me twice. I jump up, I hop
in the car, I rush to where he is and
(29:00):
as I'm pulling up the Houston Fire Department. The Houston
Fire Department has a policy, which not every department does,
but it's a good policy. They send the closest vehicle
first to send men, to send personnel. So an ambulance
might still be ten minutes away, but a pumper or
(29:21):
ladder truck or squad whatever could be right nearby, and
they will be the first one on the scene because
they can immediately begin life saving activities. And so I
jump out, And they didn't know what to make of me,
because I think I've told you to the studio, I
wear house slippers. My buddy Michael Robinson, the Aggie Plumber,
(29:43):
calls of my dream clouds. But my niece has bought
them for them and the hip for me, and they
have special meaning to me. So I've got my dream
clouds on my shorts with cigar holes in them, and
my shirt that I buy online for nine dollars. Chad
and I wear the same shirt. It's called thirty two
degrees cool, and I buy up there nine dollars a piece.
You can get them at Costco. And it's got holes
(30:03):
in it from where I smoke. I don't care. I'm
in the studio. I don't need to look nice for
them home. You sure do look nice for me, that's
for sure. So anyway, and they look at this dude,
who's running in to the building looking like, you know,
you just got out of bed. And I said, you're
going to my dad's I'll tell you which floor. I
(30:23):
push the button, get them up there, and they went
to work on him. And I got to tell you,
I took their names down and I called Chief Munnos
and I as as everything cleared and my dad got
to the hospital, I texted him and told him, you know,
(30:45):
his guys had done a great job, and I told
him their names. And then last night I called him
and I know which stations. There's two stations they came from,
and it was the A shift and the names, and
so I said, I would like to go that when
their next shift is on, I would like to go
by there and thank the guys personally and bring them
(31:06):
some food. You got to prep them because firefighters love
to eat, but they prep ahead for what they're going
to eat. So if you just show up with food,
they're like, well, I guess we'll eat again, but it's
better if you so anyway, that is just your reminder,
no matter how many gates you have out front, no
matter how many locks, security systems, alarms, guns you have,
(31:29):
at the end of the day, We are still all,
in ways large and small, dependent on our neighbors, on
the goodness, on the competence, on the love, on the diligence,
And I mean, I got welled up over these guys
taking care of my dad just so absolutely lovingly. So
(31:53):
that's just your reminder. Whether you're an Mt. Firefighter, cop,
worker at the front desk receptionists, intake whatever you do
make a difference, because you just never know how much
you can change somebody's life.
It's that time time time, luck and load. So Michael

Speaker 1 (03:20):
Now. See this is how you do a website wrong.
Go to Florida's Kitchen dot com right now. It is
a one page landing pad. It don't try to be
anything that it's not.
Speaker 5 (03:33):
It.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Don't try to get fancy. You got a picture on
the homepage. It says call us at the top line,
call us in Livingston, Texas at eight six six seven
two one sixty seventy eight. Why do they have an
eight sixty sixth number? That don't make no sense? But
who's paying tolls to call them? Don't you have to
(03:56):
pay extra for eight sixty six number. That's crazy. That
really makes no sense to me. I wonder why they
have an eight sixty sixth number if they are paying
for their phone calls. Somebody please tell them to stop.
So what you been there? Yeah? Yeah, I remember you
(04:19):
took the boys. So right at the top you got
the phone number.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Boom.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
How often do you go someplace and you can't You
go to the website and all you want to do
is call them. Well, they don't want you calling them.
You're gonna have to dig around a while. You're gonna
have to root around a while to find the phone
number because they do not want you to call. Call
us in Livingston, Texas at eight six six seventy two
(04:44):
one sixty seventy eight. I'm always amused when people put

(07:00):
some awards that they've won over to this hours of operation.
See this. This is a master class in how you
do a website. The problem is every sixty every fifty
to sixty year old white dude that has a company
that they've had for a long time, their daughter goes
to college and they're so proud of their daughter. She's
(07:23):
gone off to college and she's joined the sorority and
they're spending so much money on her there and she's
partying and having a good time. She graduates and they
go up and they do the ring ceremony and they
drink the wind. They buy all the gear, and they
go to the football games. And she graduates and she
comes home and they don't know what she's going to do.
So she goes to work at the company and she
(07:44):
walks in the doors of the company like she built
the damn place when that company was good enough to
raise her in comfort and pay her way all the
way through school. So she didn't have a dollar of debt.
Oh but she has a marketing degree. Now, if I've
seen this story once, I've seen it hundred house. She's
got a marketing degree now and she got it from
the University of Texas or Texas A and M Universe.
(08:07):
So now she's gonna handle the mark. Oh no, this website,
this won't work. So she complicates everything, screws everything up,
has nothing to do, and would hate the very people
who are customers there. But old dad, he's proud and
he don't know any better. Hey, you need to fix
your website. Well you had to talk to my daughter. Shit,
that's the problem. Your daughter's a problem where you have.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Came to the right place because Michael Berry. Get on him.
Blow it all out, baby, I.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Don't want to coffee a team now you know why
Rush called Kamala Harris. Willi Brown's mattress. Willie Brown's mattress
is out hawking her book. At one stop, she weighed
in on Jimmy Kimmel's suspension, blaming Trump's fragile ego.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
But I'll tell you who refuses to cofitulate the people
when a president with a fragile ego could take a
joke and brought down the weight of the federal government
to silence the voice of a citizen. Folks spoke with
their pocket books.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
This week, and Jimmy Kimmel is now back on the air.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
That's not what happened. It's not what happened at all.
Hollywood elites wanted to stick it to Trump, so they
called a meeting with Bob Iger of Disney and demanded
that he put him back on. And he equ and
he quaked, and he did. It's as simple as that,
No pocketbooks. Jimmy Kimmel was last in the ratings for
(09:38):
his day part among the major networks. And that's saying
something because it's not strong competition. But you know, there's
something about her mouthing off like this. There's something about
mouthy women like this. And you see the comparisons between
her and Lena Hidalgo. There's a lot of very tough talk.
(09:59):
Do you ever notice Kamala Harrison and the reason this
happened was because this president can't take a joke. He's weak,
He's not tough. Bitch, you're drunk ninety nine percent of
the time. You are mixing a cocktail of valium and
(10:24):
wine and tears to help you get through every minute.
You're married to a beard who knocked up his babysitter
for his daughter. Yeah, yeah, that's who you are. And
(10:46):
the child they have is a dude that runs around
as a little pixie Dylan mulvaney, angry as all get
out and absolutely bat crap crazy, and every body knows it.
Your life is in shambles. Shambles. You do not need
(11:09):
to be out here taunting other people. It's not a
good look. But do you notice she and Lena Hidalgo
had this in common? Number One? They talk very tough. Oh,
they're very tough. Lena Hidalgo is very tough. Remember what
she said about kim Ogg. I don't know what this
(11:31):
bitch has on, y'all. I don't know. I don't know
if she was suggesting that kim Ogg was seducing them,
or if kim Ogg was threatening them. But her voice quivering,
She's talking tough and cursing and foul mouth, and in
(11:53):
all the while, at any moment, you can tell she's
ready to just go and start crying and run off
to the concert and leave the commissioner's meeting. She's always
just on the verge of crying over whatever is happening.
She's so frustrated. She can't get her away, she can't
(12:15):
outsmart anyone. No one respects her and no one ever
has because she's not earned it. She's this little she's
like she's liked the child. She's like little Kim in
North Korea. You know, he one day he wakes up
and he's he's going to be the Grand Dictator. So
now all of a sudden, instead of you know, North
(12:37):
Korea having been born from a star from the constellation
and that became North Korea and that was actually his father.
And you know, he hit twenty eight holes in one
and you know runs a two minute mile and oh yeahs,
Grand Leader, you did it well. Now Tubby, now we
got Tubby. He's the greatest of all time. He's done
all these great things because he was just in the position. Well,
(13:02):
that's Lena Hidalgo and frankly that's Kamala Harris. When Sandy Peterson,
our research director, put together the intersectionality score of twenty twenty,
this was the absolute height of DEI, the absolute high point.
And she put together a scoring system of I don't know,
it must have been twenty things. You know, if you
(13:24):
were gay or lesbian, transgender, non white woman, stupid, all
the things that you know, foreign, all the different things
that you needed to be. She had the high score
by far. And then there's a true lefty to his credit,
he's an actual died in the wool believer lefty communist
(13:45):
socialist who got rich off the process, Bernie Sanders. But
he's he's white. But anyway, we thought Kamala would fare
better than she did. She wasn't even still in the
in the primary as of Iowa. But there she is
talked to tough. Now Trump, it's just not tough enough.
You've gotta be tough. But all the while she's got
(14:07):
to be zonked out of her mind in order to
appear in public. That's the reason for the drunken rambling.
She knows that people are laughing at her behind her back.
She knows she is a walking meme. She knows nobody
respects her. But the whole thing she has to do
is just keep moving forward, keep moving forward. And she
(14:31):
looks like somebody walking into the courthouse after they've been
on the run and their crimes have been revealed, and
they are absolutely the pariah of society. And the goal
is just keep walking, just keep walking, one step after
the other. Ones that get in, get in the courthouse,
get in the courthouse, get in the courthouse. She has,
she has that stride about her and all the while
(14:56):
she Lena Hillary. All the while they can keep telling you, everybody,
y'all get excited. I'm a girl, I'm a girl.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
We're doing girl power.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
And the reality is the true reality. Trust me on this, fellows.
Women are not excited, women are not thinking. Finally one
of us broke through because women don't identify with these
types of women. Women don't like these women. They don't
(15:28):
have a girlfriend like this. They didn't go they didn't
go to college with a girl like this. They didn't
study with a girl like this. They didn't work, they
didn't trade shifts at the restaurant. With a girl like this,
they don't call and talk about what they're going through
in life. With a girl like this, they're not there
to take care of the three kids at home while
the woman is having another baby and says, don't worry,
(15:49):
I'll take care of your other kids. Women like that
aren't like that. They're not like normal women, and normal
women know this.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
It's a shame.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
It's a damn shame.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
It's a damn Look at Sam Kinnison said, Okay, she's
going along talking and all of a sudden he just
starts screaming.
Speaker 7 (16:06):
Spend my whole life with you because it came in
your drink, what you touch my vers. You always showed
me that loving.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
You is well, that's that you made me so very happy.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
I'm so glad for our next trip. We play a
Kamala Harris clip that is an odd combination of her
word salads and an outrageous claim made by the previous
borders are. What's interesting about this is you get these
(16:46):
these women who are pathetically narcissistic, and it really is.
It's sad because everything about them is them. Look at
me over here, look at me. I'm over here. Look
at me, I'm here. Oh my god, I've just won
this award. I've just won this other award. I've just
won an award for winning awards. I've just won an
(17:08):
award for winning an awards for winning awards. And this
is me and I'm over here. Oh my goodness, I've
been honored to chair here. Oh my god. You won't believe.
Last night I was chairing and they gave me this trophy.
Oh my god, look at me, and everyone wants me
to run. I don't know if i'll run. I may run.
I'm awesome. Girl power. We're gonna get the girls together.
Everybody's gonna be proud.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Girls.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Girls are in charge. Girls, girls, girls. If this is
what it means for girls to be in power, then
we don't want them because you're awful. There are very
good women running for office and you are an embarrassment
to that. And that's how most women feel. And that's
the reality. And frankly, most black people don't like black
politicians either, Democrat politicians. They don't like that the Sylvester
(17:50):
Turners and Rodney Ellis's and Shila Jackson Leeze claim to
speak for them. They don't like it not one bit.
Go to a barbershop and listen to what people really say.
Doesn't mean they won't vote for them. They will, it's
still hard for them to break that. So here is
Kamala Harris claiming people just hand her babies, they pass
them through the crowd. This my baby. Give this baby
(18:13):
to Kamala.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Kamla's up there.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
If Kamala was to bless this baby, he could just
touch the him of her garment.
Speaker 5 (18:21):
Oh something, you know. One of my favorite things to see.
And it would always happen spontaneously at our rallies and
thousands of people would come and there it would happen.
Is invariably somebody would want me to take a picture
of a husband child and someone in the back would
(18:44):
hand that baby over.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Up to you.
Speaker 8 (18:49):
People, hold on, ramon, hold on, She's not just gonna
tell the lie what I was saying.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
She gonna sigh eye you.
Speaker 8 (18:59):
She's gonna show you does she meanness? She gonna side
out you and you won't believe it. People would they
would It's like.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
The pathological liar, Remember John loves people would they would
uh uh they would uh they would uh they would
hand me they baby? Really, Yes, yes, and and then
they would name their baby after be right on the spot.
(19:30):
Really yes, And then they would worship me.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Really oh yes.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
And then they would they would just they would just
be passing babies. It would be a sea of babies.
Oh my goodness. It was like a whole bust full
of babies. And somebody hit the brakes and all the
babies flew forward, and they said, Kama Lo will catch them.
She said, because Mama Love will take care of them.
It's just not only does she live, but she just
(19:58):
hands it up.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
Past the baby and then past the baby. And I
don't know, there was something about that when it would happen.
I mean, I could get very dedotional about it right now,
but you know, I don't believe that we should always
feel about the children of the community. Are the children
(20:22):
of the community of all of us, that.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Our next leaders, our next thinkers, are next, and.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
That we all participate in caring about that child and
in caring for that child. And there was just something about.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
That travel from the parents, yes, and the.
Speaker 5 (20:41):
Parents trusted the stranger that was next to them, who
trusted the next person, and all of them as though
it was their own child. There was something so magical
in many ways about that and about affirming about you
can create an environment where people feel safe and feel
(21:02):
a sense of communal responsibility and community. Yeah, you know,
many of us had the blessing of growing up where
you know, the neighbors were watching out for all the kids.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Right, it was a neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
Your neighborhood was the community.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
Right.
Speaker 5 (21:15):
Read so much about where we are right now that
has caused people to feel alone or to feel outside,
they don't belong. And this was just the opposite of that.
And and I hold on to that. I talk about
that kind of thing in the book, and I hope
that there is something about.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
She just they just handed. They're like, Mama, to take
my baby. Bless this job, Mama.
Speaker 5 (21:43):
Still those people.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
Come through several videos of her rallies, and it turns
out this odd phenomenon never happened. Ramon has a theory
about this story, and he wrote a song about it.
Go ahead on Ramone, Go ahead on.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
The crowd.
Speaker 7 (22:05):
Press clothed the lies. Why Camara took the stage, gave
it all she got. She said, hands reached up, I fell.
The love so true, But it wasn't Babies, y'all it
was barbottles of that ninny brou pass me them babies,
(22:31):
jim Bean, my child, Jack Daniels crying wild jerky, running wild.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Dude, Oh lord, I.
Speaker 7 (22:44):
Cradle, I'm sweet all ride them slow on. My babies
ain't in dippers. Theyreing bottles for the ride, and cold
mama's in the crowd. Daddy is true. They didn't have
me chargers.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
They pass me boozze.
Speaker 7 (23:06):
Little babymakers mark with a passifier.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Tar bunches start passing.
Speaker 7 (23:11):
Babies like this.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
It's two lady stuff.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
YbI o kay ibi, okay, hey, he's an old.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
College and Michael Berry.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
YbI o kay.
Speaker 6 (24:13):
So.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
I spent years of my life obsessed with municipal government.
I find municipal government to be very interesting because for
all the talk on Fox News, municipal government is where
the rubber hits the road. If if you've got crime
on your street, you can sit and watch Fox News
(24:37):
all day. But the chances are Donald Trump or Mike
Johnson and Pete Hegseth are not going to be especially
if you're in a red state. They're not going to
be coming to your rescue. It's going to be your
local cops. And for years I have said, I don't
care how rich you are, even a billionaire. I guess
you could have your own healthcare staff. But that's all
(24:59):
the never. I mean, Americans don't spend That's what people
do in third world countries. Americans are ashamed to spend money.
It's it's an interesting thing because they don't want to
be perceived as having things that are nice. It's in
this country it's we're kind of at a French revolution
point where everybody wants to pour mouth. Nobody wants to
you know, like, the only people who want to act
(25:21):
rich are rappers. You notice this. Rappers are the only
ones that are like, look at this, Look at me
slapping this cash out my hand. That's right, Look at
my lambbow. I got my McLaren, I got my mind, bog,
I got bitches, and then more bitches, and then I
(25:42):
got hoes and bitches and hoes and cars and hoes
and money and houses, and look at me, I'm rich
and they can't afford a penny of it. And then
you got dudes that are actually rich, and they got
their head down. They're driving themselves. They don't dare having nobody.
They don't wear their nice watch because they're afraid of
(26:03):
getting knocked in the head. They occasionally will go over
to River Oaks District for ten minutes, but that might
get mugged at any moment. It's a funny thing how
that works. But I have said for years people don't
realize how important their local government, especially Republicans, and so
they don't have anything to do with it, so they
never take control of it, and you end up with
(26:24):
the wrong kind of people in charge. And if the
wrong kind of people were in charge of your local
sports team, they would never win a game. You'd do
something about it. You're terrible. But when it comes to
municipal government, people just leave. They just move out to
Chapel Hill or Belleville or Brenham or Columbus or round Top.
(26:46):
They just move the woodlands. So I've said for years
that city government is very important, and so people would
always say to me, well, I don't care. I don't
live in the city, all right, fair enough, you don't
live in the city, so you will never have need
for HPD or the Houston Fire Department. Well, I don't
live in the city, okay, live in the woodlands, all right.
I mean Rockets Gams yo two oh probably ten. I
(27:08):
mean Astros Gams yo two twenty? How many? Okay, So
there's thirty times you're going to be in the city
of Houston for a number of hours. Where do you
work downtown? Okay, let's go through. Yeah, as it turns out,
you spend more hours, you spend more non sleeping hours
in the City of Houston than you do in the Woodlands.
(27:30):
So but you don't You don't know anything about it
or care anything about it. You just hope when the
call has made that people you had nothing to do
with being there will arrive. So yesterday at eleven oh one,
in the middle of the call goes from eleven oh
one to eleven oh two. Stuff burns in my mind.
I don't know why it's weird. And it's my wife.
And when I tell you my wife doesn't cry, my
(27:52):
wife doesn't cry. I do. But she is very stiff
upper lip. Her father was the same way. And she said,
as in a very firm tone, not nervous, not panicked.
I want to be her when I grow up. She's
so tough. She said, you need to go see dad
right now, just like that. And I said no. She
(28:17):
said you need to go see dad. Yeah, yeah, you
need to go see dad right now. And I said okay.
And I could tell she's never told me to do that.
And we had just gotten off the air, and I
said I didn't want to ask because I thought maybe
he's passed, and because he'd been in the hospital all
(28:38):
the way up till Saturday, and we've just had one
scare after another scare after another scare. It's been rough.
She said, you need to get there fast, so don't
have to tell me twice. I jump up, I hop
in the car, I rush to where he is and
(29:00):
as I'm pulling up the Houston Fire Department. The Houston
Fire Department has a policy, which not every department does,
but it's a good policy. They send the closest vehicle
first to send men, to send personnel. So an ambulance
might still be ten minutes away, but a pumper or
(29:21):
ladder truck or squad whatever could be right nearby, and
they will be the first one on the scene because
they can immediately begin life saving activities. And so I
jump out, And they didn't know what to make of me,
because I think I've told you to the studio, I
wear house slippers. My buddy Michael Robinson, the Aggie Plumber,
(29:43):
calls of my dream clouds. But my niece has bought
them for them and the hip for me, and they
have special meaning to me. So I've got my dream
clouds on my shorts with cigar holes in them, and
my shirt that I buy online for nine dollars. Chad
and I wear the same shirt. It's called thirty two
degrees cool, and I buy up there nine dollars a piece.
You can get them at Costco. And it's got holes
(30:03):
in it from where I smoke. I don't care. I'm
in the studio. I don't need to look nice for
them home. You sure do look nice for me, that's
for sure. So anyway, and they look at this dude,
who's running in to the building looking like, you know,
you just got out of bed. And I said, you're
going to my dad's I'll tell you which floor. I
(30:23):
push the button, get them up there, and they went
to work on him. And I got to tell you,
I took their names down and I called Chief Munnos
and I as as everything cleared and my dad got
to the hospital, I texted him and told him, you know,
(30:45):
his guys had done a great job, and I told
him their names. And then last night I called him
and I know which stations. There's two stations they came from,
and it was the A shift and the names, and
so I said, I would like to go that when
their next shift is on, I would like to go
by there and thank the guys personally and bring them
(31:06):
some food. You got to prep them because firefighters love
to eat, but they prep ahead for what they're going
to eat. So if you just show up with food,
they're like, well, I guess we'll eat again, but it's
better if you so anyway, that is just your reminder,
no matter how many gates you have out front, no
matter how many locks, security systems, alarms, guns you have,
(31:29):
at the end of the day, We are still all,
in ways large and small, dependent on our neighbors, on
the goodness, on the competence, on the love, on the diligence,
And I mean, I got welled up over these guys
taking care of my dad just so absolutely lovingly. So
(31:53):
that's just your reminder. Whether you're an Mt. Firefighter, cop,
worker at the front desk receptionists, intake whatever you do
make a difference, because you just never know how much
you can change somebody's life.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
