Speaker 1 (00:04):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Varie Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Our nation is back, bigger, better, richer, and stronger than
ever before. Less than five months from now, our country
will celebrate an epic milestone in American history, the two
hundred and fiftieth anniversary of our glorious American Independence. This
(00:35):
July fourth, we will mark two and a half centuries
of liberty and triumph, progress and freedom in the most incredible.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
And acceptional nation ever to exist on the face.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
Of the earth.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
And you've seen nothing yet. We're going to do better,
and better and better.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
This is the Golden Age of America.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
The Americans built this nation from thirteen humble colonies into
the pinnacle of humans, civilization, and human freedom, the strongest, wealthiest,
most powerful, most successful nation in all of history. Americans
ventured out across the daunting, dangerous continent. We card passed
(01:14):
through an unforgiving wilderness, settled a boundless frontier, and tamed
the beautiful but very very dangerous wild West. From empty
marshes and wide open plains, we raised up the world's
greatest cities. Together, we mastered the world's mightiest industries, shattered
(01:36):
histories monstrous tyrannies, and we liberated millions from the chains
of fascism, communism, oppression.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
And terror.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Common to America.
Speaker 5 (01:52):
Neighbor came president honoring the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary
of this great nation, the birth of freedom as we
know it. And the left, of course they're going to criticize.
That's the point to remember. It doesn't matter what he does,
they have to criticize. When you understand the game, it
(02:15):
makes you less crazy. I can't believe how many people
that I think should know better. They run businesses, they're successful,
they make good life decisions. They hire and fire, and
market and strategize and invest and borrow and run spreadsheets
and all these things. And they'll come to me and
(02:39):
they're upset that the left is criticizing Bibel. He's just
trying to throw a party for a nation. Yeah, and
they're still criticizing him. Yes, how about this, UO sports fan, Okay,
if your team has a won a game all year long,
(03:04):
last game of the season, home game, nobody's going do
they still short play the game or do they just
call the game? What short and play the game? That's
what that's of course, why because that's what you do.
They're professional baseball players. Oh and they still sell coach
(03:27):
and Hamburg.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:29):
And the announcers still announce this.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
And the ump still goes out and colls balls and
Strice Windy is not overrule by the Yeah. And they
still stripe, the field strippers still straight Yeah, and the
parking lot of it.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Yeah. Why do they do those things? Because that's what
they do. Nobody shows up.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
And says, I can't believe they're gonna play a baseball game.
They ain't got a chance in hell of making the playoffs.
How come them to still play a baseball game? You
don't question then? Yeah, Michael, but that's entertainment. Uh, you've
(04:10):
got to understand it is all kabookie theater, or you're
gonna make yourself crazy. But I can't understand they won't
give Trump credit for nothing? Why would they? Why would
they give him credit because he can't do everything wrong.
(04:34):
Do you think they've honestly assessed whether he's done something
wrong or not? Do you think they've honestly assessed whether
it's good for the country. These are people who told
you that Biden was the best president we've ever had.
Why do you why can't you let this go? Why
can't you be smarter than them? Because when you rage
over this, you're not any better than them. You're the
(04:57):
audience member of a sport event that is rigged. As
long as you understand you're in this for the entertainment,
as long as you understand that your diet of sports
has reduced because you supplemented with the diet of politics,
as long as you understand that you don't go home
and watch Fox News in the evening to learn what's
going on, but to be enraged, as long as you
(05:21):
understand that that is now a part of who and
what you are, and that the issue is going to
change by day. Sandy Peterson at one point wrote down
the top issue in the country every day for the year,
and you go back and read it.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
And you go, wait a second.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
That was the biggest thing in the country for a minute,
and literally nobody They never found Nancy Guthrie or the
person who killed her to my knowledge, or whatever happened
to her. And it amazed me, Hey, what do you
think about Nancy Guthrie? Not a damn thing, But no,
it's not important to me. But Michael, she's a human.
(06:02):
I can point to you there's one hundred other people
missing or more that you don't care about. You were
told to care and you did. I don't follow those rules.
But just for kicks, it's fun sometimes too point out
how ridiculous they are. So we're told that Trump is
dishonoring the office because we're going to have these you know,
(06:23):
we're gonna UFC fight, We're gonna have this concert. First
of all, Joe Biden had a topless Trannis event on
the lawn of the White House. Uh huh yeah. Chicks
with yeah, yeah, exactly, goobs with boobs. Yeah, he did that.
(06:45):
He did that, and there is footage of it. It
is undeniable. There were certain magazines who were celebrating some
great ideas. Is wonderful, look at this, We've finally arrived. Yes, okay,
well the mass you have to see. That's ridiculous, that's dishonoring.
(07:08):
Do you understand that pugilism is as American as apple pie?
Teddy Roosevelt staged boxing matches inside the White House. Not
only did he stage them, he himself fought in him.
(07:30):
He was completely blinded in one of his eyes because
he had a detached retina and back then you didn't
have Jeff Whitst who could just replace your retina. Our
founding fathers dueled with pistols. You should know which one
(07:52):
of them died doing so ever, wants a proper nation
that carried bibles and guns, didn't tolerate nonsense, didn't allow
people to spit on the cops, didn't allow people to
break into our country.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Those were the good old taste.
Speaker 5 (08:11):
Whychel, why can't they be the same good old days today? Well,
everybody'd be upset again.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Why do you care?
Speaker 5 (08:20):
Because you don't want them to criticize. Let's be honest,
most people don't want to be criticized. It's the not
wanting to be criticized that is the decline of this country.
The being nice. There's been a carnival cruise that of breach.
Now process this for a moment. Your immediate reaction is
those bastards. They're always hacking into our computers and stealing
(08:44):
our information. The whole world is a bunch of scammers
trying to take our money, and frankly, we could stop
it if we made it, if we made it something
we really cared about. If we can bomb Iran into
the Stone Ages, we can make the scammer stop, and
(09:07):
your grandma won't be called in the middle of the
night by someone telling her that her grandson whose name
they have, is going to be brought up on murder
charges tonight because he had too much to drink, smashed
into a woman who was pregnant and the baby died,
(09:28):
and she's panicked and she and she gives him her
credit card to get him out tonight. Uh yeah, yeah,
we could stop it. So your immediate reaction naturally goes
to credit card fraud hackers. And it's a Pakistani hacker. Okay,
(09:55):
but stop for a moment and see the humor in this.
It's a carnival cruise line. And I'm just imagining when
the Pakistani hackers realize that they've hacked into carnival cruise
(10:18):
lines and they're getting people's bank accounts, and they're going, oh.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
This is regional power.
Speaker 5 (10:30):
Are you telling this thing is already I can help.
This car was already stolen to start with. Are these
people spending fifteen dollars a month a slingshotball? What is slingshot?
Can you imagine the moment that they realized they've been duped?
(10:53):
Joke's on you no money left on that credit card?
It was car all wrong, airline to hack? What do
you have? IRS call? What is that true? Is it
a real call? Legit?
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Legit? Okay?
Speaker 5 (11:15):
Ramone said, this better not be some joke. Ramon said
he got a call from the IRS and he and
he recorded it.

why my social got deemed because I was opening up
a business. We just opened. We're open Tuesday through Sunday

open from eleven thirty to three. And look, when all

Speaker 5 (14:54):
How was that the point? He figured it out? By
the way, Ramon's not having an E on the end.
That was Romone thinking he's funny. Ramon is R A
M O N. And I know what you're thinking, Well,
I need a silent E on the end to make
the vowel before the consonant preceding it long you do
(15:16):
if you're coming from a whole different tradition, this is uh,
this is not that tradition. And see, well you're not Spaniards.
And if I hear that again, that's my favorite. Some
dude named Pedro Gonzalez from Mexico got all the Indian traits,
(15:39):
the dark hair, of the dark skin, dark eyes and
five seven. Yeah, yeah we're from Spain. No, you're not
from Spain. Yeah, people are Spanish. My mother would refer
to his Spanish as Spanish. He was a Spanish fellow.
Speaker 4 (15:57):
He was a Spanish fellow. I did a living here
and enjoying this wonderful time.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Mitter Michael Berry.
Speaker 5 (16:06):
It's now been over five years since Rush past. It
was February seventeenth of twenty twenty one. Our career highlight
was doing the Christmas Eve show that year. As you know,
that was his He didn't have children and he looked
(16:28):
forward to that show and it was a huge honor
his team gave us to let us do that. It
also kept Clay and Buck from being set up for
failure because they didn't ask to replace Rush, and they
tried to be very delicate about it and very respectful
(16:49):
about it. It's not an easy thing to do. That's
a tough you know, It's always tough to come in
after a legend like that, whoever that is. But there's
a story that I don't know if I've ever told before.
I thought today would be a good day to tell.
Thirty three years ago a little town in Colorado was
(17:16):
absolutely swarmed. Now, if you're a Rush Limbaugh fan, you
already know what I'm going to say. If you're not,
it's part of the legend that I think deserves to
be told. So play along if you know already, and
if you don't, you're going to learn something about Rush.
I think remembering is honoring. About thirty five thousand people
(17:37):
poured into Fort Collins, Colorado for what came to be
known as rush Stock ninety three, all because of a
bake sale. You heard that right, a bake cell. The
man behind it was named Dan Kay. He was twenty
(17:58):
four years old. He'd been working at a flea market,
and his problem was he wanted a subscription to Rush
Limbaugh's newsletter, but at twenty nine dollars and ninety five cents,
his wife was not having it. So he did what
any resourceful fan would do. He called into Russia's show
(18:22):
and complained, and Rush never wanted to miss a moment,
jokingly told him to do what what do we always say,
Hold a bake sale, raise the money yourself. So Dan
took it literally and he actually did it, resourceful fellow.
(18:45):
Somehow what started as a gag turned into a massive
gathering that drew tens of thousands of Limball loyalists to
northern Colorado. The crowd was full of fans of our
fearless leader, el Rushbow. Nobody could have predicted that a
(19:08):
twenty nine dollars ninety five cent newsletter subscription and a
wife saying you can't and of course a call into
Rush Limbo show would turn into one of the biggest
moments of nineteen ninety three. Let's listen to Rush Limbaugh
from his television show talking about that event.
Speaker 9 (19:28):
It's an all bake sale show tonight, folks. We got
some footage from the bake sale. We have some footage.
Speaker 4 (19:33):
The way the.
Speaker 9 (19:34):
Media has covered the event and some comments, but it
really was a great time. There's a lot of national
curiosity about it, and I want to say right up front,
by the way the press did a very good and
fair job covering this. We got three minutes on CNN,
two and a half minutes on NBC and CBS well
on their late night news.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
We're twenty two minute show.
Speaker 9 (19:53):
To get two and a half or three minutes of it,
it's good. Most packages are ninety seconds. And the only
thing that was I think not properly reported was the
size of the crowd, and we'll talk about that as
the program goes.
Speaker 4 (20:07):
Here's just some shots to show you.
Speaker 9 (20:08):
This is the old Town Square in Fort Collins, Colorado.
These two little dots you see here are the stage.
We have a shot coming up tonight of me speaking
and you'll see people after people after people, and just
there's nothing but wall of wall people for as far
as you can see. And it's only this section. I'll
point it out to you as this right here. None
(20:31):
of the it's just it's an awesome, awesome shot. You'll
see the perspective of the crowd very well. This is
Dan of Dan's Bake Sale, the guy I'm pointing to,
and we have a little bit of him. These are
mounted cops. These guys got me to that stage. Can
we go back to this monitor. Let me show you
something if you can get a close up here, let
(20:52):
me let me grab my rainforest pointer. I don't often
use this, but I want to show you something.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Well.
Speaker 9 (20:59):
I used to use this point a lot and people said, hey,
you're distracting us with the pointer.
Speaker 4 (21:03):
You're the show, not the pointer.
Speaker 9 (21:04):
You is your finger and just a little change of pace. Now,
can we get a close up here? Chet, Come on
in these two things here are the stage. I was
hidden out in this building here. This is where I was,
ladies and gentlemen, so as to protect me from the
throng from the mob. And I had to get from
(21:25):
here to here and still be alive so I could
make a speech. And we did it with these guys
on horseback, these guys. This is not a shot of that,
but I was sandwiched in between them with a wall
of cops, and everybody is very cooperative, and that's how
we got it done.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
You know.
Speaker 5 (21:46):
His flair for showmanship, the tongue firmly planted in cheek
as he would say, you know, Trump does this. If
you love Rush, you take what he's saying literally. If
(22:06):
you hate Rush, everything he says simply affirms what you
already knew. He's a blow hard, blustering, self important, narcissistic fool.
So he's really serving everyone in the process. Everyone. He's
(22:28):
doing everyone a favor. He's doing his enemies a favor.
He's giving them a focus to be angry about. And
that becomes in and of itself, that becomes an activity,
that becomes a thing that they do that fills their time.
(22:52):
You've seen this with you saw it with Donald Trump.
You've seen it. You've seen it with anyone who becomes
a local point for MAGA or the Tea Party or
Christians or Americana. You see how the more people love
(23:16):
you for what the left hates, the more they have
to hate you. And the incredible thing about Rush, I mean,
I'm trying to think. You know, we've had people who
now we have a term for this now trolling, right,
which is where you do things for the sole purpose
(23:38):
of upsetting the other side. And we had people who
did that to some extent. But long before Trump, Rush
was doing this, and he was reveling in it. He
was enjoying it so much. And there's something fantastic about that.
(24:01):
And today it's it's not as noteworthy, but nobody was
doing that back then. Nobody was. Nobody's was engaging in
what we would now call trolling in a way that
your your supporters could cheer for it, and you're making
your You're just giving them more to be angry about
it than Rush did. There's more to this. There's much
(24:27):
more to this. The first step in destroying the black
community is to dismantle the black family. Michael Berry's show,
why don't we ask missus Willie Brown if Kamala Harris
cares about black families? It just tuned in. We knew
another exciting hour of our tribute to Rush Limbaugh. Every
day we'd like to think it's a tribute to Rush Limbo.
Our show is a tribute to Rush Limbaugh. We wouldn't
(24:52):
be here if Rush Lambaugh hadn't saved the AM dial.
So everything we do is a tribute to him. Thirty
three years ago, a small town in Colorado, Fort Collins, Colorado,
became known as Rushstock ninety three when thirty five thousand
people poured in for a bake sale. A twenty four
year old by the name of dan Ka, who was
(25:14):
working in a flea market, called into Russia's show. He
wanted a subscription to Rush Limbaugh's newsletter. But his wife
told him, we don't have twenty nine dollars and ninety
five cents per month to pay for it. And I
guess that was the per month? Was that was it
per month? Was that it for a year? Maybe that
was for a year, okay? And his wife said, no,
we don't have that kind of money. That's real money,
(25:35):
and we don't make that. So I think he probably
thought Rush would say, well, here, I'll send it to
you free, and he said, have a bake sale. So
the guy did, and Rush showed up. Rush then showed
a video package. This is on his TV show of
that day when Rush shows up.
Speaker 9 (25:53):
Let's just put this whole thing in perspective. We've got
a package, an overview package.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
It'll start out.
Speaker 9 (25:59):
With names of traffic trying to get into fort columns,
aerial shots of the crowd, some stuff from the bake sale,
randomly put together. This is a good two minute overview.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
So let's get started with this. Take a look.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Standing down Russel and Musl to acquisition Lema's edition.
Speaker 5 (26:20):
We'll make some money. Enrages. Honey, we're baking walking, thank you,
thank you.
Speaker 10 (26:30):
Hey.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
The IV one I'm pulling in.
Speaker 10 (26:38):
Fine I want to do I preve to you, thank.
Speaker 7 (26:52):
You.
Speaker 4 (26:53):
I see for America. I see people.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Who've probably been here for a while, met a lot.
Speaker 5 (27:03):
Of people you didn't even know.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
You've met a lot of new friends, and you're happy today, right,
good lazy telling why I love you all from the
bottom of my heart.
Speaker 9 (27:17):
I want you to have I appreciated this more than
you can possibly imagine.
Speaker 10 (27:25):
I really do.
Speaker 9 (27:26):
You all have have done such a change around in
my life, and I want to encourage you to continue
to be yourselves and to be happy.
Speaker 4 (27:33):
And above all, don't get down.
Speaker 9 (27:35):
I know the dominant media culture makes it look like
what you and I believe in is a minority, but
it is.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
We are the majority of figures in.
Speaker 5 (27:43):
The It's hard to estimate crowd sizes. They say thirty
five thousand people, and of course that became a big
deal in first In Trump's first remember the pea hat
the a female anatomy had. I'm not going to say
the word. I don't use that word. I also don't
(28:04):
use the sea word. I don't like the word. If
I'm being completely honest.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
I will refer to the P word.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
If somebody is being a sissy, a baby, like, come on,
like you're getting your films hurt over that you're such
a But I'll usually just say a woozy with a
W instead. But anyway, that became a big issue. I've
always thought crowd sizes were overrated. But anyway, Rush talked
about how they came up with an unofficial number for
(28:32):
how many people were there. It's a lot. How about this,
it's a whole lot.
Speaker 4 (28:35):
Chip, let me or Chet, I do that all the time.
Speaker 9 (28:38):
We've got a director's name is Chet. One day I
called him Chip, and so we all call him Chip
or check. Now Chet, put an aerial view up here.
Anyone will do as I as I talk about the
crowd size. The official estimate that was reported first from
Associated Press was twenty thousand or more. So it was
at least twenty thousand. Then the figure was up to
(29:02):
thirty five thousand. NBC on Saturday Night said twenty five thousand,
thirty five thousand, forty five thousand or more. And today
on Monday, we got our official estimate from police officers
and sheriffs departments on the scene. They're saying anywhere from
thirty five to seventy five thousand. Here's why it's tough
to count. In the first place, nobody really knows what
the capacity of that old town square is. This is
(29:24):
the first time anything like this has ever happened. But
we've got some good indications. In the first place, they
have a football stadium there. The seats about fifty to
sixty thousand people's Colorado state maybe more than that. The
parking lot there, it can handle thirty thousand cars. That
parking lot was full, and you know that more than
one person came in each car. We also had twenty
(29:48):
five thousand copies of a.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
Limball letter that we gave away.
Speaker 9 (29:51):
We did not give anybody more than one, and we
didn't give everybody one, so they're at least twenty five
thousand there. We figured that at least three times that
many came by that didn't get We figured we gave
one away to one of every three people there. An
eight hour event, and at any one time it may
(30:12):
very well be that in that square area, twenty to
thirty thousand people is the max you can get in there.
But this was an eight hour event, and people were
coming and going all day long. They came by bus,
they came by train, they came by car They came
by camel caravan.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
They take the Hoof Express.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
They walked in.
Speaker 9 (30:27):
They came from the United Kingdom, they came from Guam,
they came from Angola. Both snerdly ran into some people
from Angola. They were, I mean, from all over the world.
And there was a twenty five mile traffic jam on
n twenty five trying to get in, which we have
footage will show you. There was a seven mile bus
caravan to get in. Now that doesn't happen with a
(30:47):
crowd of twenty thousand people. Now, I'm not quibbling about
the crowd. I'm not trying to make a big deal
about numbers. But I am interested in the truth. We
are in relentless pursuit of the truth.
Speaker 5 (30:57):
Here, to no one's surprise, the crowd, unlike those at
Democrat events, was very well behaved.
Speaker 9 (31:09):
This is another thing too. Most events, like a three
hour rock concert, a baseball game or something, and the
crowd comes, they expect a thirty minute or three hour show,
and they get what they wanted, not they want they leave.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
Eight hours And there was no show here.
Speaker 9 (31:23):
It was just a bunch of great people, happy content,
prosperous people. People on their way to prosperity. People who
have the same values, the same goals, the same objectives,
and they just wanted to get together with one another,
and they did and that was what sustained them. It
was just a giant neighborhood that was generated.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
By my radio and television shows. It was just a
sight to behold.
Speaker 9 (31:47):
And so the crowd, I think was significantly larger than
what has been reported, and it was the most well
behaved crowd of its size. It was an amazing the
cops all said. Cops all said that they've I've never
seen a more peaceful group than this. Everybody in the
city was with surprise because normally what they get in
there is crowds that cause trouble and make a mess
(32:10):
out of things.
Speaker 4 (32:11):
In this group didn't do that.
Speaker 5 (32:12):
Now, that is an important point. It's qualitative, not quantitative.
The size of the crowd is irrelevant in my opinion.
It's the type of people who were there. You get
a lot of people to show up for an ANTIFA
event or a p HAT event or Black Lives Matter.
(32:33):
If you were a business, you wouldn't want to miss customers.
That is why talk radio as a format has become
the most profitable, most coveted format is not because of
me or Clay and Buck or Sean or Glenn or
Jesse Kelly or any of these other folks. It is
(32:53):
because you are the customer that every business wants. You're
a pleasure to do business with. This is the basis
of the economic model of talk radio. That's why talk
radio stations are booming, not because of us, but because
(33:16):
of you.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
And that's the truth.
Speaker 5 (33:19):
There is a business to most everything, and you are
the coveted customer of every person who is sponsoring my
show and everyone else on this network.
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The
Michael Varie Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Our nation is back, bigger, better, richer, and stronger than
ever before. Less than five months from now, our country
will celebrate an epic milestone in American history, the two
hundred and fiftieth anniversary of our glorious American Independence. This
(00:35):
July fourth, we will mark two and a half centuries
of liberty and triumph, progress and freedom in the most incredible.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
And acceptional nation ever to exist on the face.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
Of the earth.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
And you've seen nothing yet. We're going to do better,
and better and better.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
This is the Golden Age of America.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
The Americans built this nation from thirteen humble colonies into
the pinnacle of humans, civilization, and human freedom, the strongest, wealthiest,
most powerful, most successful nation in all of history. Americans
ventured out across the daunting, dangerous continent. We card passed
(01:14):
through an unforgiving wilderness, settled a boundless frontier, and tamed
the beautiful but very very dangerous wild West. From empty
marshes and wide open plains, we raised up the world's
greatest cities. Together, we mastered the world's mightiest industries, shattered
(01:36):
histories monstrous tyrannies, and we liberated millions from the chains
of fascism, communism, oppression.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
And terror.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Common to America.
Speaker 5 (01:52):
Neighbor came president honoring the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary
of this great nation, the birth of freedom as we
know it. And the left, of course they're going to criticize.
That's the point to remember. It doesn't matter what he does,
they have to criticize. When you understand the game, it
(02:15):
makes you less crazy. I can't believe how many people
that I think should know better. They run businesses, they're successful,
they make good life decisions. They hire and fire, and
market and strategize and invest and borrow and run spreadsheets
and all these things. And they'll come to me and
(02:39):
they're upset that the left is criticizing Bibel. He's just
trying to throw a party for a nation. Yeah, and
they're still criticizing him. Yes, how about this, UO sports fan, Okay,
if your team has a won a game all year long,
(03:04):
last game of the season, home game, nobody's going do
they still short play the game or do they just
call the game? What short and play the game? That's
what that's of course, why because that's what you do.
They're professional baseball players. Oh and they still sell coach
(03:27):
and Hamburg.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:29):
And the announcers still announce this.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
And the ump still goes out and colls balls and
Strice Windy is not overrule by the Yeah. And they
still stripe, the field strippers still straight Yeah, and the
parking lot of it.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Yeah. Why do they do those things? Because that's what
they do. Nobody shows up.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
And says, I can't believe they're gonna play a baseball game.
They ain't got a chance in hell of making the playoffs.
How come them to still play a baseball game? You
don't question then? Yeah, Michael, but that's entertainment. Uh, you've
(04:10):
got to understand it is all kabookie theater, or you're
gonna make yourself crazy. But I can't understand they won't
give Trump credit for nothing? Why would they? Why would
they give him credit because he can't do everything wrong.
(04:34):
Do you think they've honestly assessed whether he's done something
wrong or not? Do you think they've honestly assessed whether
it's good for the country. These are people who told
you that Biden was the best president we've ever had.
Why do you why can't you let this go? Why
can't you be smarter than them? Because when you rage
over this, you're not any better than them. You're the
(04:57):
audience member of a sport event that is rigged. As
long as you understand you're in this for the entertainment,
as long as you understand that your diet of sports
has reduced because you supplemented with the diet of politics,
as long as you understand that you don't go home
and watch Fox News in the evening to learn what's
going on, but to be enraged, as long as you
(05:21):
understand that that is now a part of who and
what you are, and that the issue is going to
change by day. Sandy Peterson at one point wrote down
the top issue in the country every day for the year,
and you go back and read it.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
And you go, wait a second.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
That was the biggest thing in the country for a minute,
and literally nobody They never found Nancy Guthrie or the
person who killed her to my knowledge, or whatever happened
to her. And it amazed me, Hey, what do you
think about Nancy Guthrie? Not a damn thing, But no,
it's not important to me. But Michael, she's a human.
(06:02):
I can point to you there's one hundred other people
missing or more that you don't care about. You were
told to care and you did. I don't follow those rules.
But just for kicks, it's fun sometimes too point out
how ridiculous they are. So we're told that Trump is
dishonoring the office because we're going to have these you know,
(06:23):
we're gonna UFC fight, We're gonna have this concert. First
of all, Joe Biden had a topless Trannis event on
the lawn of the White House. Uh huh yeah. Chicks
with yeah, yeah, exactly, goobs with boobs. Yeah, he did that.
(06:45):
He did that, and there is footage of it. It
is undeniable. There were certain magazines who were celebrating some
great ideas. Is wonderful, look at this, We've finally arrived. Yes, okay,
well the mass you have to see. That's ridiculous, that's dishonoring.
(07:08):
Do you understand that pugilism is as American as apple pie?
Teddy Roosevelt staged boxing matches inside the White House. Not
only did he stage them, he himself fought in him.
(07:30):
He was completely blinded in one of his eyes because
he had a detached retina and back then you didn't
have Jeff Whitst who could just replace your retina. Our
founding fathers dueled with pistols. You should know which one
(07:52):
of them died doing so ever, wants a proper nation
that carried bibles and guns, didn't tolerate nonsense, didn't allow
people to spit on the cops, didn't allow people to
break into our country.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Those were the good old taste.
Speaker 5 (08:11):
Whychel, why can't they be the same good old days today? Well,
everybody'd be upset again.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Why do you care?
Speaker 5 (08:20):
Because you don't want them to criticize. Let's be honest,
most people don't want to be criticized. It's the not
wanting to be criticized that is the decline of this country.
The being nice. There's been a carnival cruise that of breach.
Now process this for a moment. Your immediate reaction is
those bastards. They're always hacking into our computers and stealing
(08:44):
our information. The whole world is a bunch of scammers
trying to take our money, and frankly, we could stop
it if we made it, if we made it something
we really cared about. If we can bomb Iran into
the Stone Ages, we can make the scammer stop, and
(09:07):
your grandma won't be called in the middle of the
night by someone telling her that her grandson whose name
they have, is going to be brought up on murder
charges tonight because he had too much to drink, smashed
into a woman who was pregnant and the baby died,
(09:28):
and she's panicked and she and she gives him her
credit card to get him out tonight. Uh yeah, yeah,
we could stop it. So your immediate reaction naturally goes
to credit card fraud hackers. And it's a Pakistani hacker. Okay,
(09:55):
but stop for a moment and see the humor in this.
It's a carnival cruise line. And I'm just imagining when
the Pakistani hackers realize that they've hacked into carnival cruise
(10:18):
lines and they're getting people's bank accounts, and they're going, oh.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
This is regional power.
Speaker 5 (10:30):
Are you telling this thing is already I can help.
This car was already stolen to start with. Are these
people spending fifteen dollars a month a slingshotball? What is slingshot?
Can you imagine the moment that they realized they've been duped?
(10:53):
Joke's on you no money left on that credit card?
It was car all wrong, airline to hack? What do
you have? IRS call? What is that true? Is it
a real call? Legit?
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Legit? Okay?
Speaker 5 (11:15):
Ramone said, this better not be some joke. Ramon said
he got a call from the IRS and he and
he recorded it.
Speaker 6 (11:22):

why my social got deemed because I was opening up
a business. We just opened. We're open Tuesday through Sunday

open from eleven thirty to three. And look, when all
(14:30):

Speaker 5 (14:54):
How was that the point? He figured it out? By
the way, Ramon's not having an E on the end.
That was Romone thinking he's funny. Ramon is R A
M O N. And I know what you're thinking, Well,
I need a silent E on the end to make
the vowel before the consonant preceding it long you do
(15:16):
if you're coming from a whole different tradition, this is uh,
this is not that tradition. And see, well you're not Spaniards.
And if I hear that again, that's my favorite. Some
dude named Pedro Gonzalez from Mexico got all the Indian traits,
(15:39):
the dark hair, of the dark skin, dark eyes and
five seven. Yeah, yeah we're from Spain. No, you're not
from Spain. Yeah, people are Spanish. My mother would refer
to his Spanish as Spanish. He was a Spanish fellow.
Speaker 4 (15:57):
He was a Spanish fellow. I did a living here
and enjoying this wonderful time.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Mitter Michael Berry.
Speaker 5 (16:06):
It's now been over five years since Rush past. It
was February seventeenth of twenty twenty one. Our career highlight
was doing the Christmas Eve show that year. As you know,
that was his He didn't have children and he looked
(16:28):
forward to that show and it was a huge honor
his team gave us to let us do that. It
also kept Clay and Buck from being set up for
failure because they didn't ask to replace Rush, and they
tried to be very delicate about it and very respectful
(16:49):
about it. It's not an easy thing to do. That's
a tough you know, It's always tough to come in
after a legend like that, whoever that is. But there's
a story that I don't know if I've ever told before.
I thought today would be a good day to tell.
Thirty three years ago a little town in Colorado was
(17:16):
absolutely swarmed. Now, if you're a Rush Limbaugh fan, you
already know what I'm going to say. If you're not,
it's part of the legend that I think deserves to
be told. So play along if you know already, and
if you don't, you're going to learn something about Rush.
I think remembering is honoring. About thirty five thousand people
(17:37):
poured into Fort Collins, Colorado for what came to be
known as rush Stock ninety three, all because of a
bake sale. You heard that right, a bake cell. The
man behind it was named Dan Kay. He was twenty
(17:58):
four years old. He'd been working at a flea market,
and his problem was he wanted a subscription to Rush
Limbaugh's newsletter, but at twenty nine dollars and ninety five cents,
his wife was not having it. So he did what
any resourceful fan would do. He called into Russia's show
(18:22):
and complained, and Rush never wanted to miss a moment,
jokingly told him to do what what do we always say,
Hold a bake sale, raise the money yourself. So Dan
took it literally and he actually did it, resourceful fellow.
(18:45):
Somehow what started as a gag turned into a massive
gathering that drew tens of thousands of Limball loyalists to
northern Colorado. The crowd was full of fans of our
fearless leader, el Rushbow. Nobody could have predicted that a
(19:08):
twenty nine dollars ninety five cent newsletter subscription and a
wife saying you can't and of course a call into
Rush Limbo show would turn into one of the biggest
moments of nineteen ninety three. Let's listen to Rush Limbaugh
from his television show talking about that event.
Speaker 9 (19:28):
It's an all bake sale show tonight, folks. We got
some footage from the bake sale. We have some footage.
Speaker 4 (19:33):
The way the.
Speaker 9 (19:34):
Media has covered the event and some comments, but it
really was a great time. There's a lot of national
curiosity about it, and I want to say right up front,
by the way the press did a very good and
fair job covering this. We got three minutes on CNN,
two and a half minutes on NBC and CBS well
on their late night news.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
We're twenty two minute show.
Speaker 9 (19:53):
To get two and a half or three minutes of it,
it's good. Most packages are ninety seconds. And the only
thing that was I think not properly reported was the
size of the crowd, and we'll talk about that as
the program goes.
Speaker 4 (20:07):
Here's just some shots to show you.
Speaker 9 (20:08):
This is the old Town Square in Fort Collins, Colorado.
These two little dots you see here are the stage.
We have a shot coming up tonight of me speaking
and you'll see people after people after people, and just
there's nothing but wall of wall people for as far
as you can see. And it's only this section. I'll
point it out to you as this right here. None
(20:31):
of the it's just it's an awesome, awesome shot. You'll
see the perspective of the crowd very well. This is
Dan of Dan's Bake Sale, the guy I'm pointing to,
and we have a little bit of him. These are
mounted cops. These guys got me to that stage. Can
we go back to this monitor. Let me show you
something if you can get a close up here, let
(20:52):
me let me grab my rainforest pointer. I don't often
use this, but I want to show you something.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Well.
Speaker 9 (20:59):
I used to use this point a lot and people said, hey,
you're distracting us with the pointer.
Speaker 4 (21:03):
You're the show, not the pointer.
Speaker 9 (21:04):
You is your finger and just a little change of pace. Now,
can we get a close up here? Chet, Come on
in these two things here are the stage. I was
hidden out in this building here. This is where I was,
ladies and gentlemen, so as to protect me from the
throng from the mob. And I had to get from
(21:25):
here to here and still be alive so I could
make a speech. And we did it with these guys
on horseback, these guys. This is not a shot of that,
but I was sandwiched in between them with a wall
of cops, and everybody is very cooperative, and that's how
we got it done.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
You know.
Speaker 5 (21:46):
His flair for showmanship, the tongue firmly planted in cheek
as he would say, you know, Trump does this. If
you love Rush, you take what he's saying literally. If
(22:06):
you hate Rush, everything he says simply affirms what you
already knew. He's a blow hard, blustering, self important, narcissistic fool.
So he's really serving everyone in the process. Everyone. He's
(22:28):
doing everyone a favor. He's doing his enemies a favor.
He's giving them a focus to be angry about. And
that becomes in and of itself, that becomes an activity,
that becomes a thing that they do that fills their time.
(22:52):
You've seen this with you saw it with Donald Trump.
You've seen it. You've seen it with anyone who becomes
a local point for MAGA or the Tea Party or
Christians or Americana. You see how the more people love
(23:16):
you for what the left hates, the more they have
to hate you. And the incredible thing about Rush, I mean,
I'm trying to think. You know, we've had people who
now we have a term for this now trolling, right,
which is where you do things for the sole purpose
(23:38):
of upsetting the other side. And we had people who
did that to some extent. But long before Trump, Rush
was doing this, and he was reveling in it. He
was enjoying it so much. And there's something fantastic about that.
(24:01):
And today it's it's not as noteworthy, but nobody was
doing that back then. Nobody was. Nobody's was engaging in
what we would now call trolling in a way that
your your supporters could cheer for it, and you're making
your You're just giving them more to be angry about
it than Rush did. There's more to this. There's much
(24:27):
more to this. The first step in destroying the black
community is to dismantle the black family. Michael Berry's show,
why don't we ask missus Willie Brown if Kamala Harris
cares about black families? It just tuned in. We knew
another exciting hour of our tribute to Rush Limbaugh. Every
day we'd like to think it's a tribute to Rush Limbo.
Our show is a tribute to Rush Limbaugh. We wouldn't
(24:52):
be here if Rush Lambaugh hadn't saved the AM dial.
So everything we do is a tribute to him. Thirty
three years ago, a small town in Colorado, Fort Collins, Colorado,
became known as Rushstock ninety three when thirty five thousand
people poured in for a bake sale. A twenty four
year old by the name of dan Ka, who was
(25:14):
working in a flea market, called into Russia's show. He
wanted a subscription to Rush Limbaugh's newsletter. But his wife
told him, we don't have twenty nine dollars and ninety
five cents per month to pay for it. And I
guess that was the per month? Was that was it
per month? Was that it for a year? Maybe that
was for a year, okay? And his wife said, no,
we don't have that kind of money. That's real money,
(25:35):
and we don't make that. So I think he probably
thought Rush would say, well, here, I'll send it to
you free, and he said, have a bake sale. So
the guy did, and Rush showed up. Rush then showed
a video package. This is on his TV show of
that day when Rush shows up.
Speaker 9 (25:53):
Let's just put this whole thing in perspective. We've got
a package, an overview package.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
It'll start out.
Speaker 9 (25:59):
With names of traffic trying to get into fort columns,
aerial shots of the crowd, some stuff from the bake sale,
randomly put together. This is a good two minute overview.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
So let's get started with this. Take a look.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Standing down Russel and Musl to acquisition Lema's edition.
Speaker 5 (26:20):
We'll make some money. Enrages. Honey, we're baking walking, thank you,
thank you.
Speaker 10 (26:30):
Hey.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
The IV one I'm pulling in.
Speaker 10 (26:38):
Fine I want to do I preve to you, thank.
Speaker 7 (26:52):
You.
Speaker 4 (26:53):
I see for America. I see people.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Who've probably been here for a while, met a lot.
Speaker 5 (27:03):
Of people you didn't even know.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
You've met a lot of new friends, and you're happy today, right,
good lazy telling why I love you all from the
bottom of my heart.
Speaker 9 (27:17):
I want you to have I appreciated this more than
you can possibly imagine.
Speaker 10 (27:25):
I really do.
Speaker 9 (27:26):
You all have have done such a change around in
my life, and I want to encourage you to continue
to be yourselves and to be happy.
Speaker 4 (27:33):
And above all, don't get down.
Speaker 9 (27:35):
I know the dominant media culture makes it look like
what you and I believe in is a minority, but
it is.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
We are the majority of figures in.
Speaker 5 (27:43):
The It's hard to estimate crowd sizes. They say thirty
five thousand people, and of course that became a big
deal in first In Trump's first remember the pea hat
the a female anatomy had. I'm not going to say
the word. I don't use that word. I also don't
(28:04):
use the sea word. I don't like the word. If
I'm being completely honest.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
I will refer to the P word.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
If somebody is being a sissy, a baby, like, come on,
like you're getting your films hurt over that you're such
a But I'll usually just say a woozy with a
W instead. But anyway, that became a big issue. I've
always thought crowd sizes were overrated. But anyway, Rush talked
about how they came up with an unofficial number for
(28:32):
how many people were there. It's a lot. How about this,
it's a whole lot.
Speaker 4 (28:35):
Chip, let me or Chet, I do that all the time.
Speaker 9 (28:38):
We've got a director's name is Chet. One day I
called him Chip, and so we all call him Chip
or check. Now Chet, put an aerial view up here.
Anyone will do as I as I talk about the
crowd size. The official estimate that was reported first from
Associated Press was twenty thousand or more. So it was
at least twenty thousand. Then the figure was up to
(29:02):
thirty five thousand. NBC on Saturday Night said twenty five thousand,
thirty five thousand, forty five thousand or more. And today
on Monday, we got our official estimate from police officers
and sheriffs departments on the scene. They're saying anywhere from
thirty five to seventy five thousand. Here's why it's tough
to count. In the first place, nobody really knows what
the capacity of that old town square is. This is
(29:24):
the first time anything like this has ever happened. But
we've got some good indications. In the first place, they
have a football stadium there. The seats about fifty to
sixty thousand people's Colorado state maybe more than that. The
parking lot there, it can handle thirty thousand cars. That
parking lot was full, and you know that more than
one person came in each car. We also had twenty
(29:48):
five thousand copies of a.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
Limball letter that we gave away.
Speaker 9 (29:51):
We did not give anybody more than one, and we
didn't give everybody one, so they're at least twenty five
thousand there. We figured that at least three times that
many came by that didn't get We figured we gave
one away to one of every three people there. An
eight hour event, and at any one time it may
(30:12):
very well be that in that square area, twenty to
thirty thousand people is the max you can get in there.
But this was an eight hour event, and people were
coming and going all day long. They came by bus,
they came by train, they came by car They came
by camel caravan.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
They take the Hoof Express.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
They walked in.
Speaker 9 (30:27):
They came from the United Kingdom, they came from Guam,
they came from Angola. Both snerdly ran into some people
from Angola. They were, I mean, from all over the world.
And there was a twenty five mile traffic jam on
n twenty five trying to get in, which we have
footage will show you. There was a seven mile bus
caravan to get in. Now that doesn't happen with a
(30:47):
crowd of twenty thousand people. Now, I'm not quibbling about
the crowd. I'm not trying to make a big deal
about numbers. But I am interested in the truth. We
are in relentless pursuit of the truth.
Speaker 5 (30:57):
Here, to no one's surprise, the crowd, unlike those at
Democrat events, was very well behaved.
Speaker 9 (31:09):
This is another thing too. Most events, like a three
hour rock concert, a baseball game or something, and the
crowd comes, they expect a thirty minute or three hour show,
and they get what they wanted, not they want they leave.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
Eight hours And there was no show here.
Speaker 9 (31:23):
It was just a bunch of great people, happy content,
prosperous people. People on their way to prosperity. People who
have the same values, the same goals, the same objectives,
and they just wanted to get together with one another,
and they did and that was what sustained them. It
was just a giant neighborhood that was generated.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
By my radio and television shows. It was just a
sight to behold.
Speaker 9 (31:47):
And so the crowd, I think was significantly larger than
what has been reported, and it was the most well
behaved crowd of its size. It was an amazing the
cops all said. Cops all said that they've I've never
seen a more peaceful group than this. Everybody in the
city was with surprise because normally what they get in
there is crowds that cause trouble and make a mess
(32:10):
out of things.
Speaker 4 (32:11):
In this group didn't do that.
Speaker 5 (32:12):
Now, that is an important point. It's qualitative, not quantitative.
The size of the crowd is irrelevant in my opinion.
It's the type of people who were there. You get
a lot of people to show up for an ANTIFA
event or a p HAT event or Black Lives Matter.
(32:33):
If you were a business, you wouldn't want to miss customers.
That is why talk radio as a format has become
the most profitable, most coveted format is not because of
me or Clay and Buck or Sean or Glenn or
Jesse Kelly or any of these other folks. It is
(32:53):
because you are the customer that every business wants. You're
a pleasure to do business with. This is the basis
of the economic model of talk radio. That's why talk
radio stations are booming, not because of us, but because
(33:16):
of you.
Speaker 4 (33:17):
And that's the truth.
Speaker 5 (33:19):
There is a business to most everything, and you are
the coveted customer of every person who is sponsoring my
show and everyone else on this network.
