Bill Gates has previously said his meetings with Epstein were
a quote huge mistake.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
His mention in the newly released documents are fueling fresh scrutiny.
Speaker 9 (06:35):
Epstein appears to be accusing Bill Gates of being with
Russian girls, contracting an STD, and was also writing emails
about how to secretly drug his ex wife with medication
so he could get away with.

In a wild rant during a recent meeting of the
House at Judiciary Committee, New York Rep. Jerry Nadler raisingly
(07:07):
claimed that ICE agents are nothing more than mere goons
who basically deserve to be shot. She attacks an American
citizens by masked flinlands.
Speaker 10 (07:16):
If you were attacked by a mass person, you might think.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
You're being kidnapped. You be just to fight and shooting
the first the fight and shooting. I always knew that
they were going to change from taking away our guns,
which they knew they could never do, to arming their side.
They are encouraging their little weasily supporters to get killed
by ICE agents.
Speaker 9 (07:36):

The ground up.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Bready to feel that feeling that's been kid.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Let's sit in a call, shall we kat You're on
the Michael Berry Show. Go ahead and hear you're the
first call the week be excellent.
Speaker 13 (09:29):
Good good morning, Michael. I was just calling because our
good buddy Buck Sloan, our bug a Bulge survivor, was
interviewed recently from Sean mccalloff at Texas bucket List and
it's going to air this Saturday at five on Channel two,
and I just wanted to shout out to book. I'm
so proud of him and we just love him to death.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Oh, we don't do shout outs, but you can do
a point of personal recognition. And good for you. He's
got a lot of friends out there. He's a very
very fortunate man. Wes, you're on the Michael Berry Show.
Go ahead, Good.
Speaker 14 (09:57):
Morning, mister Verry. I want to ask you a question
about the Trump shavings account for newborns, which I agree with.
Now after Trump leaves and can't ride herd on this
thing with all that money built up, do you think
the Democrats will try to make another Ponzi scheme out
of it, like Social Security and use all that money
(10:17):
for other stuff? You know, that's what's supposed to be
a lock box is so outdoors.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Yeah, But what it has the short term effect of doing,
which I think was probably part of all this, is
that it injects a bunch of money in the stock market.
So if you wanted to pour a bunch of cash
into the stock market and drive stock prices up in
an election year, you can't just say, here, we're going
to inject cash into the stock market and watch watch
(10:47):
the price of Particularly you're going to see the blue
chip stocks, because I think that's where people are going
to look for relatively safe stocks, you know, the Dow
Jones type things, maybe some Palenteer and Navidia and no
sorts of things. And all that's going to do is
going to rising tide lifts almos, going to lift the
entire stock market. When you pour that kind of money
(11:08):
into anything, you're going to see an inflationary effect, and
that's you're going to see the stock market rise. Stock
market rise has historically been an indicator of an economic boom,
or it is perceived as such because usually stock prices
increased because, at least traditionally, because companies were throwing off
more dividends. Companies were meeting and exceeding their quarterly and
(11:30):
annual projections, and so that meant that companies were succeeding,
the sales were increasing, the economy was booming, and that
was driving prices higher, and that was you know, anyone
who owned a share viewed that as you know, what
I bought for forty is now sixty. That's a good thing.
(11:52):
It makes it harder for somebody trying to get into
the market. But nobody thinks about that. It's all that
the stock market is up, and so I think that's
that's going to be the the most important short term
effect of all of this. I do like the idea
of people investing, don't get me wrong, and teaching poorer
families who don't have a history of that how to
do that. I just think it's important to understand the
(12:13):
other effect it's going to have. Hauls Yould Michael Berry show, go.
Speaker 8 (12:15):
Ahead, Good morning me, Sir Michael Burray.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Yes, sir, I'm coming.
Speaker 8 (12:20):
From Mattagorda County and driving north into Whardon County. I'm
from both counties, I claim, but I just wanted to
get your opinion on wind and solar. There's some wind
turbines down here and they seem to leak a lot
of oil and I don't know what that number of
gallons or barrels of oil per year it takes to
relubricate it. But I just want to get your opinion
(12:42):
on them taking some of the most fertile ground in
the state of Texas and replacing it with wind.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
And solar, with the very unsightly wind and solar. Well,
first of all, there was a theory proffered that we
needed alternative energy, alternative energy, alternative energy for the most
efficient forms of energy that we had. Now the most
efficient form of energy is nuclear. But there is not
(13:11):
and there is not nearly enough. If you'd put the
money you put into Soldar and Win into nuclear, you'd
done something. But the left one and the left was
financed by China. You know what China has done, if
you sit back as a doctor evil sort of way,
is absolutely remarkable what they've managed to do. They managed
(13:32):
to convince the Western world, including the United States and
to a greater extent, Europe, to get off of the reliable, secure, traditional, proven,
legacy energy forms. And we did it in the state
of Texas. You know, just before the big freeze when
we lost all our power. Just a matter of days
before that, Greg Abbott won a big award for the
wind energy program that then, of course was not usable.
(13:54):
During that time, you can't spend all the dollars that
you need to build a grip strong enough to withstand
extreme heat and in a rare case cold in the
state of Texas, and also play games with wind and solar,
which are very very inefficient, very very expensive, and not
(14:15):
a stable form of energy. And at the end of
the day, that's what you want. We don't want rolling brownouts.
And it started with Rick Perry. He got really really
deep in the wind and solar, and that money has spent.
It's sort of like, you know, the people who want
to build who want to build bike lanes. We're gonna
build bike lanes and everyone's going to ride their bike
in one hundred and ten degree heat. Really, that's ninety
nine percent humidity. We're gonna build bike lanes, how are
(14:37):
you going to build them? Or we're going to take
up part of the roadway. So it's not that bike
lanes themselves are necessarily bad. I'll leave it at that.
It's not that bike lanes are necessarily bad. It's that
you're spending money on bike lanes instead of roadways, and
roadways are what move people. And then at five o'clock traffic,
nobody's saying, well, traffic's bad, but not nearly as bad
(15:01):
as if we'd spent the money on more roads instead
of the bike lanes that we have, because bikes don't
alleviate traffic. I think wind and solar are stupid, and
I've had people over the years argue with being five
emails in you find out that they've got a day
job that they don't love, and they were picking up
that tax credit of going out and getting people to
(15:23):
put those awfully ugly solar panels on the top of
their house. Look, I think there's a place for solar
on localized small things. You know, you want to put
a gate out in West Texas that's one hundred miles
from a power source, and you want to use solar
for that, and all all the gate needs to do
is open and close, and you got a pretty easy
(15:43):
access and a blue sky to get power. Sure, I
think wind and solar have been a huge, huge debacle,
And anybody who knew anything about energy could have told
you that and did, absolutely did. But a lot of
people made a lot of money and they got to
do a lot of reviews about oh, we've been all
the wonderful things they are doing, and now we've kind
(16:03):
of moved past wind and solar and we move on
and we're back to the same stable source that we
used all along. This is the Michael Berryshaw. I've got
one hundred dollars walking my bill hoole.
Speaker 12 (16:26):
I know how I say that Barby's burning a hold
right through my bocketing and through my skin.
Speaker 6 (16:33):
A month and morning, I'll be.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
It's fine.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
One thousand. You can email through the website Michael Berryshow
dot com. My ballot choices can also be seen there.
It has been fixed into a PDF format so that
you can print that if you like. Remember that whatever aids, guidance, slates,
printed materials you may have, you can bring those into
the voting booth with you. You cannot open your phone,
(17:04):
you cannot review your phone, you cannot search online. When
you are inside the voting booth. You can look at
printed materials. You cannot look at your phone or your tablet.
So prepare ahead because it's a busy ballot. There are
lots and lots of offices out there to consider for
your vote. To the phone lines, we go marry, you're up,
(17:25):
Go ahead, dear.
Speaker 15 (17:26):
Good morning, Michael Berry. Well, I have a bit of
a being my bonnet. I am frankly furious at Channel
eleven and the forty eight hour Show. They are running
a show Saturday night that is entirely sympathetic to Connor Hilton,
the young man who over Christmas Break twenty twenty three
(17:48):
premeditated shot two other boys and would have shot a third,
but he hit in the bathroom. Because you wanted to
know what it would be like. The forty eight hour
show is entitled something like the RX Defense. Connor's attorney
claims that the accutaine made.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Him do it, acuting.
Speaker 15 (18:14):
Michael the Skins of yeah, yeah, the man is grasping
at straws. When when you're a defense attorney and have
absolutely nothing and there is loads and loads of video
of your client consessing to the police, you know he's
got nothing else he can do. And I'm sure these
(18:34):
parents can afford to paying lots of money. They bailed
him out in twenty twenty three. Now the kid is
plaited guilty. So I'm not quite sure why forty eight
hours is doing.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
This show entertainment, the same reason that Fox has Savannah
Guthries mother's story on twenty four to seven. It has
nothing to do with the issue. Never confuse that. It's
not about what the story is, it's about keeping you
glued to it. And so think about this. Do you
have any relation to the case or you just know
the details?
Speaker 13 (19:04):
Disclosure.
Speaker 15 (19:05):
I never taught these boys, but I taught at Friends
With High School. I'm retired now a Friends With community
and I care passionately for the families. Attends my very
large church. But we are not quote one of the
families victims' families attends my church. We are not close.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
But you have a connection. That's a real connection. These
are real people to you. They're not just characters on
a TV show. That's a real connection. I would say
that I would small caring community. Yeah, of course, friends
with Of course. How did you teach.
Speaker 15 (19:38):
That are part of twenty years. I started as an
engineer and then was blessed to teach advanced mathematics to
some of the best kids in the world.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Wow. So let me answer your question, Mary, and I
understand it's frustrating if you are a program director and
you are putting on programs in twenty twenty six and
you're making that decision because you're going to produce it
in the summer or fall, of twenty twenty five, if
(20:08):
you are forty eight hours. I don't know when forty
eight hours airs, but let's assume it is prime time.
And you said Saturday night not their best night of
the week necessarily, but let's just play along here. One
thing you recognize is that network television is struggling, particularly
at a time like that, because people might not come
(20:31):
home on Tuesday night at seven o'clock and watch Netflix
or Amazon or Apple or any of the myriad other
programming options that they have. YouTube is big now.
Speaker 15 (20:46):
It's hard.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
It's always interesting when you see what the alternative to
things are, because older folks think that the alternative to
network television the fact that people don't watch Parks and
rec or Happy Days or whatever they used to watch
at seven o'clock. I haven't watched that stuff in a year,
so I can't even give you anything useful. And that's
not a flex, that's just I don't watch it. They're
(21:07):
not competing against alternate shows any longer. They're competing against
alternate means of distribution. And that changed the game. The
reason young people don't watch television except the fall Guy
or Greatest American Hero at seven o'clock is because they're
(21:28):
not watching another television show. They're watching TikTok, they're scrolling Instagram.
So these networks are scrambling, they are desperate, and they're
trying to put anything on the air that will capture
your attention. So they're looking for fact patterns. This is
not about that individual kid and this individual case. Let's
be clear about that. This isn't about whether he did
(21:49):
it or he didn't do it. They're looking for fact
patterns that when people are scrolling through they would say,
oh my god, a kid killed two other kids. I
don't know all the facts. I have basics of it.
I remember the detail, a little bit of details. But
but you've got uppity kids who are not gangbangers and
one of them shoots the others. This is crazy. Well wait,
(22:13):
the lawyer says, a prescription drug did it. I can
hear this as Keith Morrison in my head, even though
that's not even the show he's on. But you get
the point. And so it's a fact pattern. You know,
the old line in media is dog bites man, not
a story. Man bites dog front page. So you're looking
for a fact pattern that will interest people. That's not
(22:38):
necessarily going to interest you as someone who's close to
the case. This isn't about justice. This isn't about whether
that young man did what he did and why he
did it, and whether he should be punished. You have
to understand the disconnect between your sense of values and
decency and what's coming through the screen, whether that be
(23:00):
on your phone, your computer, or the television. Once you
understand that, it will no longer have a hold on you.
There is nothing on that screen that is right or wrong.
You're still holding fast, and God bless you for it.
I'm glad to know there are still decent, honorable people
out there. Sweet ladies who teach at the school and
(23:22):
go to church in Friendswood. That's my childhood, that's my life.
I'm grateful for you. But you should never interact in
the porn district in New York. You should never interact
in the TV industry or on Madison Avenue, as they're
making ads for how to sell you products that will
(23:44):
kill you and they know it. So what I would
tell you is you've got a wonderful life. You're a
happy person. You've made a world of difference to a
lot of people, and you still got gas in the tank,
enjoy your life. Understand that you're not going to fix
(24:07):
forty eight hours. They're not going to fix forty eight hours.
That show and television. I'm sure that show are in
decline and they're desperately figuring it, trying to figure out
what can they do to stay relevant. And so once
you understand these sorts of things, don't go put in
your hand in the viper pit. Are you going to
(24:29):
get bit, Go read a book, Go get some fresh air.
Thank you for teaching for twenty years. I really do
think that's I think that's noble than it's godly. Michael
Berry Show.
Speaker 4 (25:02):
Two, it's two way years, so it's too warm and
sat in the chest.
Speaker 10 (25:18):
Yet songs, So I means my head straps be signed
the saw so it's a dad stand up me by.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
All that spends into the friends and I was like
seven into the final.
Speaker 10 (25:37):
So that is the man house you mean? It's I
mean called my men, I never time very long and
I bone.
Speaker 4 (25:56):
Meaning out my people.
Speaker 14 (25:59):
I'm in.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
February sixteenth, every person who tours Republic Grand Ranch, one
hundred dollars will be donated in your name to Camp
Hope to help veterans with PTSD. I was with one
last night who has an amazing, amazing testimony to tell.
They always include getting ready to a suck start, a
(26:26):
shotgun or pistol in their mouth and booze and drugs
and pain that they want to leave and then one
way or another, Camp Hope. I don't know how they
do this. It's amazing. It's magic. Helps these people heal
(26:49):
and it changes their lives. So if you've been thinking
about going to visit Republic Grand Ranch, please do so
between now and the sixteenth and help us raise even
more money.
Speaker 15 (26:59):
Every year.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
That is a big check that goes to Camp Hope
from Republic Grand Ranch, and I am appreciative that Republic
Grand Ranch does that and other things to help Camp
Hope with operational expenses. It is also eight days away
from Valentine's Day, and if you are going to buy
a present for the lady in your life, I hope
you will consider our friends at a Corey Diamonds and Design,
(27:22):
Billy and Connie. You will love the experience. They will
help you whatever your budget. They will help you look good.
They will help you look like a star to her
and make her feel special. I know that people will
say that Valentine's Day is a hallmark holiday. Okay, I suppose,
I suppose nothing we do matters. Then I happen to
(27:43):
think that it's an important day because I think it's
important that we are loving to the person with whom
we're spending our lives. And I think it's real easy
to get into a pattern where we forget the person
who is most important to us, the person who's sharing
our life with us, and we get so busy doing
(28:04):
things and around things and tasks and meetings and travel
and obligations and the things that don't give our lives meaning.
And here is this person who made a lifetime commitment
to us. I think one day a year is not
too much to ask to focus on her for that.
And any woman who says she doesn't care, I've never
found that to be the truth. You don't necessarily have
(28:27):
to spend a bunch of money, that those are your
financial decisions. But I think that people appreciate the fact
that you have made an effort to make that day
special for them, because, let's be honest, you don't do
that every day. But that's okay. It's not that you're
not busting button, everything else, keeping the bills paid and
the kids fed, and all those your company running, and
(28:48):
all those of course you are. But one day it's
good to stop and show her she's appreciated. Homeless, Victor,
we're so glad to have you. Can we get some
music for homeless?
