Speaker 1 (00:02):
It's that time, time, time, time, Luck and Load. Michael
Verie Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
And CNN Chief Legal analyst Jeffrey Tubin. In October, you
were on a zoom call with your colleagues from the
New Yorker magazine. Everyone took a break for several minutes,
during which time you were caught masturbating on camera.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
What did you think of the presentation by the lead
house manager, Adam.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
Suff I thought it was dazzling.
Speaker 5 (00:35):
I thought the way he wove through both the facts
of the case and the historical context was really remarkable.
It was the second best courtroom address, since it's like
a courtroom that I ever heard after a prosecutor named
Jonathan Benedict and the Michael Schaigel case in Connecticut was
the best I ever heard, and it's still the best.
(00:57):
But that was you and you can the volume of
information he covered using the video, as I think Jake
mentioned earlier, the you know, the witness testimony, the documents.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
It's very persuasive stuff.
Speaker 5 (01:14):
What was the comment that got Jimmy Kimmel in trouble?
It was not about the murder he was criticizing. He
was mocking the president and the president's.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
Political movement Maga. So what we have.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
Here is the administration cracking down on someone for criticizing them, which.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
Is much worse.
Speaker 5 (01:36):
Than the government cracking down for some sort of offensive
conduct relating to good taste. If the Democrats retake the
(02:16):
Senate and they confirm a Donald Trump nominated to the
Supreme Court, they ought to just close down the Democratic
Party and give up. I mean, it would be the
most pathetic admission of weakness and defeat. The idea of
a Democratic Senate giving another seat to Donald Trump when
(02:37):
Mitch McConnell stole one from Barack Obama is simply inconceivable.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Tonight, I will bestows commendations in this segment, first to
a Republican, then to a Democrat. We will start with
the director of the FBI, mister Cash Patel, talking about
violent felons being arrested in the past seven months before
I tell you that news breaking today that in Illinois
(03:08):
an illegal alien was arrested by ice who is also
a police officer. There is no way you become a
police officer in this country without the municipality for which
you work knowing that you are illegal. These are things
(03:34):
that are required a police officer has given a great
deal of power. You know, I know that people love
to crap on officers. I know that people love when
an officer comes up to do their job because you're
doing ninety and a forty. They love to play constitutional
lawyer on them and trip them up. And you don't
(03:57):
know the law. You know how many officers we have in
this country, and you'll get somebody. They'll spend a lot
of time at some weekend seminar on some weekend on YouTube,
and they start spouting a few legal doctrines as I
don't like it. I don't want to live in a
police state. I'm a civil libertarian. But officers are not
(04:22):
to be insulted and denigrated because they do a job.
I don't believe in that. And I realize there are
some people on our side. The circle comes all the
way around, and they are what used to be a leftist. Okay, fine,
but this should never happen. Heads should roll. People should
(04:43):
be fired, not this officer who is in the country illegally.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Our laws matter that needs to be dealt with.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
But there are people who signed off on him as
a police officer who should be fired. Forthwith end of story.
All right, let's start with cash. But and the numbers
of fellows, the work that's being done amazing.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Update it's the three months span.
Speaker 6 (05:07):
You had eighty seven hundred arrest of violent criminals. You
had twenty two hundred firearms seized off the streets permanently to.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Safeguard our communities.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
You had four hundred and twenty one kilograms of fentenyl seas.
Just to put that in perspective, that's enough to kill
fifty five million Americans alone. You had forty five thousand
kilograms of cocaine seas and thanks to our Department of
Justice partners who had twenty one hundred indictments in three
months from June to September alone, Mister President, that in
(05:39):
and of itself would be historic for a four year presidency.
You did that in seven months because you let good
cops be cops, and you partnered us with the right
people in the Department of Justice to put the handcuffs
on and bring them the court and put them in prison.
And if that weren't enough, when you look at the
year for the entire seven month period that we're talking
about here, if you look at the past four years
of the Biden tom stration sixteen thousand, seventeen thousand, fifteen thousand,
(06:03):
fifteen thousand, that's the number of rests year over year
of violent felons in this country for the Biden administration,
mister President, in seven months, you had twenty seven twenty
eight thousand, six hundred arrest of violent feminals in just
seven months alone. Because of your leadership and the dedication
to the men and women at the FBI who want
to go out there and do the job they were
(06:25):
prevented from doing because that department used to be weaponized
and politicized. And this is what happens when you take
out the fans of weaponization. This number is historic by
every metric. Twenty eight thousand people have been arrested violent
felons alone. And then when you go over there and
look at some of these charts, if you don't mind,
on the top of the years, look at a few metrics.
(06:46):
We're not supplied from the homelands, mister President, during your registraction,
you have the as found and located fifty four hundred children.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
That is a thirty percent increase year to date over
the last administration.
Speaker 6 (07:02):
Violent crimes against children arrest alone are up ten percent.
Gang arrest are up two hundred and ten percent in
the last seven months alone, and transnational organized crime Steven
Miller's because a great partner, it is up over twelve
percent alone.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
These numbers are historical justice.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
The Grandson's Limbaugh, you would say, right on, right on, David,
Well done, Michael Berry.
Speaker 5 (07:26):
I've been fighting acquisitions after acquisitions.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
It's good for Kamala Harris to keep, you know, doing
book tours and continuing to say really stupid things because
as irritating as it is for you, and I understand that,
and you go, why can't she just go away? My
life will be better she just goes away. Oh, I
got news for you. There's a certain acceptance you need
(07:53):
to have right now. You didn't know Katie Porter till
ten days ago, and now she has emerged on the
sea and you realize how awful she is, and hearing
her talk is more nails on a chalkboard for me
than even Kamala. And that's the truth, that is the
absolute truth. It's good for her to speak so you
(08:14):
can be reminded how close we came, how bad it
could have been. It's good to be reminded of why
we do what we do, why we care while we
talk to our neighbors, why we win them over? And
don't forget her stolen valor vice president who within the
(08:36):
next last month said that the reason the Kamala Harris
campaign chose him as every vice president is that he
is the alpha white, alpha male whisperer. He's the one
can talk to them and all he knows how they talk,
(08:59):
you know, because he shoots shotguns and coaches a football.
He actually said that. Imagine that dude as the vice
president his crazy wife. Dudes like that always have a
crazy wife. She's the last one to know he's prancing
(09:19):
around the stage doing his jazz hands. She's nutter butters.
She's crazier than he is. Truth is, she's crazier than
he is. There came a point where people began hating
Joe Biden more than Joe Biden, and for good reason,
which doesn't make Joe any better. It just tells you
how bad she is. But on the issue of Kamala
(09:41):
Harris and Timmy Walls, yeah, we were talking earlier during
the break. They're removing the rainbow crosswalk and you know,
I'll bet you that makes Timmy wats very very upset.
(10:02):
I bet he's very out of sorts over not having
a rainbow crosswalk.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Oh look at the time, I better get a little
light in my loafer.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
It's gonna be late for my podcast Recordingopop dooce.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
I'm where over the rainbow? What in the tickle my nipple?
Where is my rainbow crosswalk? It's gone? I mean, how
do I can get across the road? I want to
go run across right here?
Speaker 6 (10:25):
I guess.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
The guys, I mean without a rainbow crosswalk, where's the
guy to go? Everybody call your congressman, write a letter,
and do whatever it takes. I don't even know what
to do.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Depending on how your day is going today, maybe it's
dragging a little thinking.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
Maybe you'll get yourself a coup of cats coffee. Maybe
you a little pick me up, Maybe have a diet co.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Eat yourself because you need a little pick me up.
Feeling down the doldrums. Maybe something's bothering you. Maybe maybe
you're not sure if your kid's going to get into
the college they want to go to, or maybe you're
not sure if you're going to get the job you
want or close the deal you want or your next
(11:21):
door neighbor's dog is barking too often. A friend of
mine brought his dad home from hospice yesterday expected to
have two days to sorry two days ago, so this
is the second day since they came home from hospice.
(11:41):
The doctors said he had probably about three days to
live kidney failure. And so my question to my friend
asking for an update, was is he at least is
he at least out of pain? And he said, yes,
he's on meds, he's mostly sleeping, and he is thankfully
(12:04):
out of pain. He just sent me a message and
he said, I just finished his obituary, and so at
least you're not writing your dad's obituary. To put that
into perspective, if today seemed like it wasn't such a
great day, we're going to have in our lives some
(12:26):
very very bad days. And you may have had bad
days before, but that doesn't mean there won't be more
bad days ahead. And I've given a lot of thought.
Speaker 5 (12:37):
To this.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
And what that means and how to try to make
a positive out of it, because you know it's possible,
it's for some people entirely likely to simply live in
a state of dread and gloom that these things are
going to happen, and so on your good days, you're
(13:03):
dreading the bad days, which makes the good days not
so good days. And there's nothing really you can do.
It's going to happen. But what I have chosen to
do to make this better is to not take for
granted an average day and do everything I can to
(13:24):
will it to be a good day. If nothing else,
it's a good day relative to that other day which
will happen. And since today is not that day, then
I'll determine that this is going to be a good
day and have as many of those good days as
(13:45):
I possibly can. Be a guy who came and sang
at the RCCs from Dallas.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
He had played.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
White boy played pro basketball for a brief period of time.
I think he was a two guard, pretty outstanding basketball player.
Became a country music singer and singer songwriter, rather talented.
I can't remember his name, but that doesn't mean anything.
There are a lot of country There are a lot
(14:13):
of talented folks, especially the newer folks. But this was
a few years ito. It was eight or ten years ago,
and he had had I want to say it starts
with an R like a ray, like a ray name
something like that.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
He had had.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
It was probably Josh or Justin or Jake, which is
what most modern country singer's names are. No offense to Josh,
Justin or Jake.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Am I leaving one out?
Speaker 3 (14:39):
Well, it's Jeremy's. Jeremy made a bit of a comeback
there for a little of while not nearly as many Jake.
It's probably the most common of the young country music
singer names. Now, anyway, he had had football, He had
had football, he had had foot cancer, and he had
had one half of one but removed, leaving him looking
(15:02):
like Tom Dempsey. For those of you who are old
NFL fans, back when Tom Dempsey's record I think was
sixty three yards, we thought that would never be never
be surpassed. Nobody ever going to kick a sixty three
And the only reason he did is he had a
club foot.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
Not fair.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Now they can kick him for seventy yards. But anyway,
he decided that the name of his album was No
Bad Days. He said, look, every day I shouldn't even
be alive. I've had horrible advanced cancer. I shouldn't even
be alive. So every day is going to be a
good day. I'm choosing that that would be the case.
Speaker 4 (15:31):
All right, let's get to it.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
I got a lot I want to get on the show,
and Tim has gotten away from me. Cash Fattel on
Real America's Voice for John Solomon, talking about more indictments
coming Comy Brennan, Bolton, Hillary Barack, Tish James. Could we
(15:54):
be so lucky beyond those who are already charged, do
you think you've seen other crimes that might eventually get
referred to justice.
Speaker 6 (16:02):
Yes, we are looking at so many different leads on
criminal activity by those who are in positions of power,
and we're not going to stop until every single one.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
Of those is it's fully exposed, the.
Speaker 6 (16:14):
Documents are provided either to Congress or the course of
law and make every referral we Canada the Department of Justice.
These indictments that you've seen and the ones that you're
going to see coming up here in this near future
are just the beginning. But I have to remind the
audience one thing. Everybody's like, it's seven months, what have
you guys been doing? Yeah, well, they spend twenty years
building this disease temple of corruption. It takes a little
bit of time to defeat it and beat it down.
(16:35):
I'm not asking you to trust me. I'm asking you
to look at the work the men and women of
the FBI have done so far in these seven eight months,
and just imagine what we're going to do come the
year end.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Commendations to cash Purtel to the FBI, to every person
in this country.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
Working either as a lawyer.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Or a law enforcement officer, wearing a back edge in
some cases a uniform, carrying a gun or a briefcase,
for the work you are doing to save this country.
God bless you, God bless you for everything you do.
Customs and Border Patrol Tom Homan and every CBP officer
(17:17):
out there. We're now seeing the effects of cartels. Now
we're seeing how nasty the cartel war is because they're
putting bounties on the heads of our ice officials and
they're going to get somebody. At some point, they're going
to kill one of our people. And that better be
the biggest reaction we have ever seen. And there better
(17:40):
not be a one Democrat who dances on his grave.
I'm just going to say that, let's go to four
to eight. John Fetterman commendations to Cash Patel and law
enforcement commendations to Democrat Senator John Fetterman of in Sylvania.
(18:00):
On New Nation town Hall with Chris Cuomo, do you.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Think Harris could have gotten a deal with Hamash.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Well?
Speaker 7 (18:08):
I mean, you know, you brought up a good point.
I think I was the only Democratic early on to
give President Trump.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
The credit for the peace deal. Why why wouldn't you?
Speaker 7 (18:19):
I mean that Rus could have gotten Well again, I
don't know, she's not the president, but but where I'm
at right now, it's it's like ask any of the
hostages or their families. They think President Trump was a
hero and he deserves, you know, the kind of deal for.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
For that thing.
Speaker 7 (18:39):
I think that was really a remarkable development.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
Do you think Harris could have got him out?
Speaker 5 (18:44):
No?
Speaker 4 (18:46):
I think it's a silly question. So why I think
it's a silly question.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
Wait?
Speaker 5 (18:50):
Wait, do you.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Agree it's a silly question. That's why they're clapping. They're
clapping because they're ready right here.
Speaker 7 (18:58):
I think I think the most important point is just
realizing who who did it? Not hypothetically or anything. Then
I'm saying it's like, here's what happened, and there are
there are actual members of my party that have refused
to even acknowledge that this was signicant, you know, And
that's for me where it's like, hey, you know it,
our politics might be different, but this was a significant development.
(19:22):
And now also that also it's what Israel was able
to accomplish, you know, they had to neutralize Hamas has
will h who this and Iran and also another thing,
the Iranian nuclear facilities. I mean, like I was the
only Democrat that supported.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
Commendations, I said New Nations News Nation. I don't know
if anybody cares.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
But Senator John Fetterman, Democrat from Pennsylvania on News Nation
town Hall with Chris Cuomo talking about the shut down,
and there are a lot of people who feel this way,
but very few who will step forward and say it.
Speaker 7 (19:56):
That's why shutting the government is is really what the
Democrat Party wants to do. And I follow country then party,
and it's the wrong thing for the country in a
period of chaos. I refuse to vote to shut our
government down. I absolutely would love to have I would
(20:17):
love to have a conversation about extending the tax credits
for healthcare, absolutely, but I would remind everybody too, this
was designed by the Democratic Party to expire at the
end of the year. This is not something taken from
by the Republicans.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
That's they were designed to expire.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
And then Senator John Fetterman, Democrat from Pennsylvania on News
Nation town Hall with Chris Cuomo, talking about using the
word Nazis for those with whom you disagree.
Speaker 7 (20:51):
I'm the only Democrat in my family. I grew up
in a conservative part of Pennsylvania, and I grew up
and I knew, I know, and I love people that
voted for President Trump. But they are not fascists, They're
not Nazis. They're not trying to destroy or the constitution
those things. And that's part of another thing. I refuse
(21:11):
to call people Nazis or fascists or I would never
compare anybody anybody to Hitler in those things. And now
that kind of extreme rhetoric is going to continue, We're
going to be more likely in resulting in extreme kind
of outcomes and political violence and doing all these kinds
(21:32):
of things. Like Charlie Kirk, for me, all I could
say is is like, let people grieve, give people the space.
I'm not going to use that terrible thing in that
pastic assassination to make my argument and try to put
on my views. It's like, my god, you know, he's
a father that had his neck blown out by a bullet,
and now people have forgotten President Trump was in my state,
(21:55):
was shot in the head, and if that would have
could you imagine where our nation would be if he
was hitt in the same way with Kirk. We really
got to turn the temperature down.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
We need more people to step forward to make a
statement like that. The Democrat Party has lost its way.
And I'll tell you we're reaching an inflection point of
the Nancy Pelosis and the Chuck Schumers, and that generation
is going to have to pass the torch, whether they
like it or not. They're all one hundred years old.
(22:28):
Our entire government. Mitch McConnell fell again today. He falls
all the time, dottering old man, doesn't know where he is.
He's half the time, he freezes up. He is as
bad as Joe Biden was, maybe worse. And it is
odd that we called for Joe Biden to step down
and no one is calling for Mitch McConnell to step down.
(22:54):
He is a doddering old fool and I'm not mad
at him.
Speaker 4 (22:59):
For being old.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
My father's eighty five. He has health challenges. I love
him dearly and I hate that he's going through. That
doesn't make him any less a man. So when I
say he's a doddering old fool, I am pointing to
the fact that he is not in a position to
be a United States senator. He's literally tipping over and falling.
There are so many of them. Dianne Feinstein was out
(23:22):
of her mind there, Kay, Granger, you know Nancy Pelosi's
barely keeping it together. Chuck Schumer is not any better, Grassly,
I mean, how why do we keep voting for people
who can hardly stand up? I saw, what's the woman
that is like the shadow representative of Washington d C.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
She looks like a possum. What is that woman's name?
But she spoke the other day?
Speaker 3 (23:52):
And then if she's walking off the stage or if
it's shuffling off the stage, she looks like she's going
to break.
Speaker 4 (23:59):
And any moment, what are we doing.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
I don't think you need to be a fitness model
to serve in government, but you need to be mentally fit,
and these people clearly aren't. I keep expecting at any
moment someone in the Senate to say, Hell, I've fallen
and I can't get up.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Get to clapper, get to clapper out.
Speaker 6 (24:17):
Oh yes, yes, yes, yes.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
NBC laid off one hundred and fifty employees, roughly seven
percent of their newsroom, and in the process dissolved they're
dedicated editorial teams. Their editorial team that covered black issues,
their Latino issue team, their Asian American issue team, their
(24:44):
LGBTQ community team. Gosh, what's left If you don't have
these specific constituency group beats, you would just have to
cover the news.
Speaker 4 (25:03):
How boring.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
Nobody in the news. The basic old news is bold
and courageous. The move is part of a reorganization that
separates MSNBC from NBC News under a new entity called Versant.
Executives describe the decision as an efficiency measure to eliminate
(25:29):
overlap and streamline operations across NBC Universal's news divisions, but
it also dismantles the network's identity based teams NBC BLK,
NBC Latino, NBC Asian America, and NBC Out. The homos
are very angry. Rich Ferraro with GLAD says the move
(25:53):
is part of a dangerous pattern. It's dangerous, I tell
you of mainstream media outlets choosing to lose trusted and
talented journalists who focus on impotent lgb oh sorry, important
LGBTQ news that otherwise is underreported or not.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
Reported at all.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
But who will report on the LGBTQ news if we
don't have a reporter who is one and dedicated to
just covering one. If you ever have flash on your
screen one of these dedicated beats and their news, it's
(26:40):
the saddest damn thing you've ever seen. You actually feel
sorry for them because the way it works is they
don't have anything to write about. You run out of
stuff pretty fast. You know, you have this black news sites,
(27:01):
and the problem is there isn't enough news. That's just
black news. You know, guy scores a touchdown, Well that's
not black news. That's about that, says football news. Guy
gets a new job, Well that's not black news, it's
just news. So it has to be the first black
to do this, right, So there's only first, so many
(27:26):
firsts you can have, so you'll do you try to
find the first black person to throw a baseball left handed,
standing on his ear with.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
His toes double joined. It just it gets ridiculous and absurd.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
It's not you're not reporting on anything that anyone is
reading and thinking, Wow, I am up to date on
what's going on in.
Speaker 4 (27:49):
The world now.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
So there's that kind of news the first, and then
there is always coverage of black organizations. They do this
in Houston. Houston Chronicle does this. There is Black Restaurant Week.
Oh well, what is that? That is where you're supposed
to go to black owned restaurants. Oh, everybody, You're just
(28:13):
black people, everybody. But if everybody comes, you will be
mad that we've appropriated your seats.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
Then you'll.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Then you'll blow up and start. They'll be hair pulling
and wig snatch and we can't have that. I think
what you mean is black people need to go to
black owned restaurants for Black Week.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
Is that what you mean. I think that's what you mean.
I'll do that for you. Think that's what you mean.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
So there is always the and then there's there's various
black chambers of commerce. There's a you know, you wonder
about this, so Black Restaurant Week, Well, do y'all, So
y'all are black owned restaurants. How's your restaurant any different.
We're black owned. Okay, well, why is that important? Why
(29:03):
is that something we need to know. I'm just curious.
We don't have restaurants with tile flooring associations where only
restaurants with tile flooring gathered together they support of us.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
We have tile flooring. Why would we.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
It's not relevant. Do you also participate in the other
restaurant weeks that everybody hates and people do hate them.
By the way, the most hated event in restaurants in Houston,
in every shop, every operator right now is not in
their head. They already know what I'm going to say,
is Houston Restaurant Week. Houston Restaurant Week is this thing
(29:44):
that was put together by one of Cleverly Stone Cleverly.
Cleverly was a big fan of ours.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
Nice lad.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Nothing against Cleverly. You worked our show, Jim, You're you're
kind of a forest gump of weird stuff. So anyway,
I liked Cleverly. She was very nice to me.
Speaker 4 (30:02):
She was a big fan.
Speaker 3 (30:03):
She would she would send nice things when I say
things on air. Nothing against them, Cleverly, But let me
tell you what Houston Restaurant Week is. And I think
she passed away, so I don't have to feel bad
about saying this, although I think they still do it.
So they go to the restaurants and they say, hey,
use to restaurant Week, and it's kind of like groupon
restaurants are always looking for ways to make more money
(30:25):
because they're all struggling. They're all struggling all the time.
And even if they weren't struggling, a lot of restaurant
owners are gamblers and drunks and they go through multiple divorces.
Not my show sponsors, but this is true of a
lot of restaurants, and this is true of the industry.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
So they're always looking for more money.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
They're always short of cash because they either don't have
any cash or when they do have cash, they blow.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
It's it's the nature of the beast.
Speaker 3 (30:52):
It's a personality type very similar to the personality type
that is a bartender. But that's another subject for another day.
So you restaurant Week. The way that works is they
go to them and get any of this business. We're
gonna have all these people, we're gonna promote it, and
we're gonna list the restaurants in there, and the only
place people are going to go during that week is
the Restaurants Center in Houston restaurant week and you want
to be in there.
Speaker 4 (31:13):
Okay, I'll do it.
Speaker 6 (31:14):
I do it.
Speaker 7 (31:14):
I do it.
Speaker 4 (31:15):
And by the way, uh, some of what we raise
is going to go to charity.
Speaker 3 (31:20):
Oh wow, okay, all right, okay, so supporting charity and
going to be really busy. Now here's we're going to
work with you in your menu. So the menu goes,
you need to charge less than usual, and well, you
need to charge less than usual, and you have to
have restaurant week offerings. All right, So the restaurant changes it.
(31:41):
So the first year they do it, they're always really excited.
And then what they realize is, just like groupon, you
want quality, not quantity. Every restaurant, every bar, every business
comes to the point that they learn you don't want
every person out there as a customer. Some people will
cost you more money showing up than staying home. And
(32:06):
you get young people for instance, groups of people who
come together, for instance. So people have this idea of
you know, here's my customer base, and I don't make
as much as i'd like to, but it's pretty good.
I like more of people just like my customer base,
but I like more of those people, and that's not
who comes during the restaurant week. And during restaurant week
(32:28):
gets crowded with people who send their food back and
complain and don't tip and they're obnoxious and all that,
and your regulars can't get a reservation that week, so
they're mad about it.
Speaker 4 (32:37):
So it's caused a bunch of folks to drop out
a future restaurant week. Obviously, good thank you, I mean
good night.
It's that time, time, time, time, Luck and Load. Michael
Verie Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
And CNN Chief Legal analyst Jeffrey Tubin. In October, you
were on a zoom call with your colleagues from the
New Yorker magazine. Everyone took a break for several minutes,
during which time you were caught masturbating on camera.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
What did you think of the presentation by the lead
house manager, Adam.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
Suff I thought it was dazzling.
Speaker 5 (00:35):
I thought the way he wove through both the facts
of the case and the historical context was really remarkable.
It was the second best courtroom address, since it's like
a courtroom that I ever heard after a prosecutor named
Jonathan Benedict and the Michael Schaigel case in Connecticut was
the best I ever heard, and it's still the best.
(00:57):
But that was you and you can the volume of
information he covered using the video, as I think Jake
mentioned earlier, the you know, the witness testimony, the documents.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
It's very persuasive stuff.
Speaker 5 (01:14):
What was the comment that got Jimmy Kimmel in trouble?
It was not about the murder he was criticizing. He
was mocking the president and the president's.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
Political movement Maga. So what we have.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
Here is the administration cracking down on someone for criticizing them, which.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
Is much worse.
Speaker 5 (01:36):
Than the government cracking down for some sort of offensive
conduct relating to good taste. If the Democrats retake the
(02:16):
Senate and they confirm a Donald Trump nominated to the
Supreme Court, they ought to just close down the Democratic
Party and give up. I mean, it would be the
most pathetic admission of weakness and defeat. The idea of
a Democratic Senate giving another seat to Donald Trump when
(02:37):
Mitch McConnell stole one from Barack Obama is simply inconceivable.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Tonight, I will bestows commendations in this segment, first to
a Republican, then to a Democrat. We will start with
the director of the FBI, mister Cash Patel, talking about
violent felons being arrested in the past seven months before
I tell you that news breaking today that in Illinois
(03:08):
an illegal alien was arrested by ice who is also
a police officer. There is no way you become a
police officer in this country without the municipality for which
you work knowing that you are illegal. These are things
(03:34):
that are required a police officer has given a great
deal of power. You know, I know that people love
to crap on officers. I know that people love when
an officer comes up to do their job because you're
doing ninety and a forty. They love to play constitutional
lawyer on them and trip them up. And you don't
(03:57):
know the law. You know how many officers we have in
this country, and you'll get somebody. They'll spend a lot
of time at some weekend seminar on some weekend on YouTube,
and they start spouting a few legal doctrines as I
don't like it. I don't want to live in a
police state. I'm a civil libertarian. But officers are not
(04:22):
to be insulted and denigrated because they do a job.
I don't believe in that. And I realize there are
some people on our side. The circle comes all the
way around, and they are what used to be a leftist. Okay, fine,
but this should never happen. Heads should roll. People should
(04:43):
be fired, not this officer who is in the country illegally.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Our laws matter that needs to be dealt with.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
But there are people who signed off on him as
a police officer who should be fired. Forthwith end of story.
All right, let's start with cash. But and the numbers
of fellows, the work that's being done amazing.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Update it's the three months span.
Speaker 6 (05:07):
You had eighty seven hundred arrest of violent criminals. You
had twenty two hundred firearms seized off the streets permanently to.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Safeguard our communities.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
You had four hundred and twenty one kilograms of fentenyl seas.
Just to put that in perspective, that's enough to kill
fifty five million Americans alone. You had forty five thousand
kilograms of cocaine seas and thanks to our Department of
Justice partners who had twenty one hundred indictments in three
months from June to September alone, Mister President, that in
(05:39):
and of itself would be historic for a four year presidency.
You did that in seven months because you let good
cops be cops, and you partnered us with the right
people in the Department of Justice to put the handcuffs
on and bring them the court and put them in prison.
And if that weren't enough, when you look at the
year for the entire seven month period that we're talking
about here, if you look at the past four years
of the Biden tom stration sixteen thousand, seventeen thousand, fifteen thousand,
(06:03):
fifteen thousand, that's the number of rests year over year
of violent felons in this country for the Biden administration,
mister President, in seven months, you had twenty seven twenty
eight thousand, six hundred arrest of violent feminals in just
seven months alone. Because of your leadership and the dedication
to the men and women at the FBI who want
to go out there and do the job they were
(06:25):
prevented from doing because that department used to be weaponized
and politicized. And this is what happens when you take
out the fans of weaponization. This number is historic by
every metric. Twenty eight thousand people have been arrested violent
felons alone. And then when you go over there and
look at some of these charts, if you don't mind,
on the top of the years, look at a few metrics.
(06:46):
We're not supplied from the homelands, mister President, during your registraction,
you have the as found and located fifty four hundred children.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
That is a thirty percent increase year to date over
the last administration.
Speaker 6 (07:02):
Violent crimes against children arrest alone are up ten percent.
Gang arrest are up two hundred and ten percent in
the last seven months alone, and transnational organized crime Steven
Miller's because a great partner, it is up over twelve
percent alone.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
These numbers are historical justice.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
The Grandson's Limbaugh, you would say, right on, right on, David,
Well done, Michael Berry.
Speaker 5 (07:26):
I've been fighting acquisitions after acquisitions.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
It's good for Kamala Harris to keep, you know, doing
book tours and continuing to say really stupid things because
as irritating as it is for you, and I understand that,
and you go, why can't she just go away? My
life will be better she just goes away. Oh, I
got news for you. There's a certain acceptance you need
(07:53):
to have right now. You didn't know Katie Porter till
ten days ago, and now she has emerged on the
sea and you realize how awful she is, and hearing
her talk is more nails on a chalkboard for me
than even Kamala. And that's the truth, that is the
absolute truth. It's good for her to speak so you
(08:14):
can be reminded how close we came, how bad it
could have been. It's good to be reminded of why
we do what we do, why we care while we
talk to our neighbors, why we win them over? And
don't forget her stolen valor vice president who within the
(08:36):
next last month said that the reason the Kamala Harris
campaign chose him as every vice president is that he
is the alpha white, alpha male whisperer. He's the one
can talk to them and all he knows how they talk,
(08:59):
you know, because he shoots shotguns and coaches a football.
He actually said that. Imagine that dude as the vice
president his crazy wife. Dudes like that always have a
crazy wife. She's the last one to know he's prancing
(09:19):
around the stage doing his jazz hands. She's nutter butters.
She's crazier than he is. Truth is, she's crazier than
he is. There came a point where people began hating
Joe Biden more than Joe Biden, and for good reason,
which doesn't make Joe any better. It just tells you
how bad she is. But on the issue of Kamala
(09:41):
Harris and Timmy Walls, yeah, we were talking earlier during
the break. They're removing the rainbow crosswalk and you know,
I'll bet you that makes Timmy wats very very upset.
(10:02):
I bet he's very out of sorts over not having
a rainbow crosswalk.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Oh look at the time, I better get a little
light in my loafer.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
It's gonna be late for my podcast Recordingopop dooce.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
I'm where over the rainbow? What in the tickle my nipple?
Where is my rainbow crosswalk? It's gone? I mean, how
do I can get across the road? I want to
go run across right here?
Speaker 6 (10:25):
I guess.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
The guys, I mean without a rainbow crosswalk, where's the
guy to go? Everybody call your congressman, write a letter,
and do whatever it takes. I don't even know what
to do.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Depending on how your day is going today, maybe it's
dragging a little thinking.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
Maybe you'll get yourself a coup of cats coffee. Maybe
you a little pick me up, Maybe have a diet co.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Eat yourself because you need a little pick me up.
Feeling down the doldrums. Maybe something's bothering you. Maybe maybe
you're not sure if your kid's going to get into
the college they want to go to, or maybe you're
not sure if you're going to get the job you
want or close the deal you want or your next
(11:21):
door neighbor's dog is barking too often. A friend of
mine brought his dad home from hospice yesterday expected to
have two days to sorry two days ago, so this
is the second day since they came home from hospice.
(11:41):
The doctors said he had probably about three days to
live kidney failure. And so my question to my friend
asking for an update, was is he at least is
he at least out of pain? And he said, yes,
he's on meds, he's mostly sleeping, and he is thankfully
(12:04):
out of pain. He just sent me a message and
he said, I just finished his obituary, and so at
least you're not writing your dad's obituary. To put that
into perspective, if today seemed like it wasn't such a
great day, we're going to have in our lives some
(12:26):
very very bad days. And you may have had bad
days before, but that doesn't mean there won't be more
bad days ahead. And I've given a lot of thought.
Speaker 5 (12:37):
To this.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
And what that means and how to try to make
a positive out of it, because you know it's possible,
it's for some people entirely likely to simply live in
a state of dread and gloom that these things are
going to happen, and so on your good days, you're
(13:03):
dreading the bad days, which makes the good days not
so good days. And there's nothing really you can do.
It's going to happen. But what I have chosen to
do to make this better is to not take for
granted an average day and do everything I can to
(13:24):
will it to be a good day. If nothing else,
it's a good day relative to that other day which
will happen. And since today is not that day, then
I'll determine that this is going to be a good
day and have as many of those good days as
(13:45):
I possibly can. Be a guy who came and sang
at the RCCs from Dallas.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
He had played.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
White boy played pro basketball for a brief period of time.
I think he was a two guard, pretty outstanding basketball player.
Became a country music singer and singer songwriter, rather talented.
I can't remember his name, but that doesn't mean anything.
There are a lot of country There are a lot
(14:13):
of talented folks, especially the newer folks. But this was
a few years ito. It was eight or ten years ago,
and he had had I want to say it starts
with an R like a ray, like a ray name
something like that.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
He had had.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
It was probably Josh or Justin or Jake, which is
what most modern country singer's names are. No offense to Josh,
Justin or Jake.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Am I leaving one out?
Speaker 3 (14:39):
Well, it's Jeremy's. Jeremy made a bit of a comeback
there for a little of while not nearly as many Jake.
It's probably the most common of the young country music
singer names. Now, anyway, he had had football, He had
had football, he had had foot cancer, and he had
had one half of one but removed, leaving him looking
(15:02):
like Tom Dempsey. For those of you who are old
NFL fans, back when Tom Dempsey's record I think was
sixty three yards, we thought that would never be never
be surpassed. Nobody ever going to kick a sixty three
And the only reason he did is he had a
club foot.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
Not fair.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Now they can kick him for seventy yards. But anyway,
he decided that the name of his album was No
Bad Days. He said, look, every day I shouldn't even
be alive. I've had horrible advanced cancer. I shouldn't even
be alive. So every day is going to be a
good day. I'm choosing that that would be the case.
Speaker 4 (15:31):
All right, let's get to it.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
I got a lot I want to get on the show,
and Tim has gotten away from me. Cash Fattel on
Real America's Voice for John Solomon, talking about more indictments
coming Comy Brennan, Bolton, Hillary Barack, Tish James. Could we
(15:54):
be so lucky beyond those who are already charged, do
you think you've seen other crimes that might eventually get
referred to justice.
Speaker 6 (16:02):
Yes, we are looking at so many different leads on
criminal activity by those who are in positions of power,
and we're not going to stop until every single one.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
Of those is it's fully exposed, the.
Speaker 6 (16:14):
Documents are provided either to Congress or the course of
law and make every referral we Canada the Department of Justice.
These indictments that you've seen and the ones that you're
going to see coming up here in this near future
are just the beginning. But I have to remind the
audience one thing. Everybody's like, it's seven months, what have
you guys been doing? Yeah, well, they spend twenty years
building this disease temple of corruption. It takes a little
bit of time to defeat it and beat it down.
(16:35):
I'm not asking you to trust me. I'm asking you
to look at the work the men and women of
the FBI have done so far in these seven eight months,
and just imagine what we're going to do come the
year end.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Commendations to cash Purtel to the FBI, to every person
in this country.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
Working either as a lawyer.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Or a law enforcement officer, wearing a back edge in
some cases a uniform, carrying a gun or a briefcase,
for the work you are doing to save this country.
God bless you, God bless you for everything you do.
Customs and Border Patrol Tom Homan and every CBP officer
(17:17):
out there. We're now seeing the effects of cartels. Now
we're seeing how nasty the cartel war is because they're
putting bounties on the heads of our ice officials and
they're going to get somebody. At some point, they're going
to kill one of our people. And that better be
the biggest reaction we have ever seen. And there better
(17:40):
not be a one Democrat who dances on his grave.
I'm just going to say that, let's go to four
to eight. John Fetterman commendations to Cash Patel and law
enforcement commendations to Democrat Senator John Fetterman of in Sylvania.
(18:00):
On New Nation town Hall with Chris Cuomo, do you.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Think Harris could have gotten a deal with Hamash.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Well?
Speaker 7 (18:08):
I mean, you know, you brought up a good point.
I think I was the only Democratic early on to
give President Trump.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
The credit for the peace deal. Why why wouldn't you?
Speaker 7 (18:19):
I mean that Rus could have gotten Well again, I
don't know, she's not the president, but but where I'm
at right now, it's it's like ask any of the
hostages or their families. They think President Trump was a
hero and he deserves, you know, the kind of deal for.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
For that thing.
Speaker 7 (18:39):
I think that was really a remarkable development.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
Do you think Harris could have got him out?
Speaker 5 (18:44):
No?
Speaker 4 (18:46):
I think it's a silly question. So why I think
it's a silly question.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
Wait?
Speaker 5 (18:50):
Wait, do you.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Agree it's a silly question. That's why they're clapping. They're
clapping because they're ready right here.
Speaker 7 (18:58):
I think I think the most important point is just
realizing who who did it? Not hypothetically or anything. Then
I'm saying it's like, here's what happened, and there are
there are actual members of my party that have refused
to even acknowledge that this was signicant, you know, And
that's for me where it's like, hey, you know it,
our politics might be different, but this was a significant development.
(19:22):
And now also that also it's what Israel was able
to accomplish, you know, they had to neutralize Hamas has
will h who this and Iran and also another thing,
the Iranian nuclear facilities. I mean, like I was the
only Democrat that supported.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
Commendations, I said New Nations News Nation. I don't know
if anybody cares.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
But Senator John Fetterman, Democrat from Pennsylvania on News Nation
town Hall with Chris Cuomo talking about the shut down,
and there are a lot of people who feel this way,
but very few who will step forward and say it.
Speaker 7 (19:56):
That's why shutting the government is is really what the
Democrat Party wants to do. And I follow country then party,
and it's the wrong thing for the country in a
period of chaos. I refuse to vote to shut our
government down. I absolutely would love to have I would
(20:17):
love to have a conversation about extending the tax credits
for healthcare, absolutely, but I would remind everybody too, this
was designed by the Democratic Party to expire at the
end of the year. This is not something taken from
by the Republicans.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
That's they were designed to expire.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
And then Senator John Fetterman, Democrat from Pennsylvania on News
Nation town Hall with Chris Cuomo, talking about using the
word Nazis for those with whom you disagree.
Speaker 7 (20:51):
I'm the only Democrat in my family. I grew up
in a conservative part of Pennsylvania, and I grew up
and I knew, I know, and I love people that
voted for President Trump. But they are not fascists, They're
not Nazis. They're not trying to destroy or the constitution
those things. And that's part of another thing. I refuse
(21:11):
to call people Nazis or fascists or I would never
compare anybody anybody to Hitler in those things. And now
that kind of extreme rhetoric is going to continue, We're
going to be more likely in resulting in extreme kind
of outcomes and political violence and doing all these kinds
(21:32):
of things. Like Charlie Kirk, for me, all I could
say is is like, let people grieve, give people the space.
I'm not going to use that terrible thing in that
pastic assassination to make my argument and try to put
on my views. It's like, my god, you know, he's
a father that had his neck blown out by a bullet,
and now people have forgotten President Trump was in my state,
(21:55):
was shot in the head, and if that would have
could you imagine where our nation would be if he
was hitt in the same way with Kirk. We really
got to turn the temperature down.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
We need more people to step forward to make a
statement like that. The Democrat Party has lost its way.
And I'll tell you we're reaching an inflection point of
the Nancy Pelosis and the Chuck Schumers, and that generation
is going to have to pass the torch, whether they
like it or not. They're all one hundred years old.
(22:28):
Our entire government. Mitch McConnell fell again today. He falls
all the time, dottering old man, doesn't know where he is.
He's half the time, he freezes up. He is as
bad as Joe Biden was, maybe worse. And it is
odd that we called for Joe Biden to step down
and no one is calling for Mitch McConnell to step down.
(22:54):
He is a doddering old fool and I'm not mad
at him.
Speaker 4 (22:59):
For being old.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
My father's eighty five. He has health challenges. I love
him dearly and I hate that he's going through. That
doesn't make him any less a man. So when I
say he's a doddering old fool, I am pointing to
the fact that he is not in a position to
be a United States senator. He's literally tipping over and falling.
There are so many of them. Dianne Feinstein was out
(23:22):
of her mind there, Kay, Granger, you know Nancy Pelosi's
barely keeping it together. Chuck Schumer is not any better, Grassly,
I mean, how why do we keep voting for people
who can hardly stand up? I saw, what's the woman
that is like the shadow representative of Washington d C.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
She looks like a possum. What is that woman's name?
But she spoke the other day?
Speaker 3 (23:52):
And then if she's walking off the stage or if
it's shuffling off the stage, she looks like she's going
to break.
Speaker 4 (23:59):
And any moment, what are we doing.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
I don't think you need to be a fitness model
to serve in government, but you need to be mentally fit,
and these people clearly aren't. I keep expecting at any
moment someone in the Senate to say, Hell, I've fallen
and I can't get up.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Get to clapper, get to clapper out.
Speaker 6 (24:17):
Oh yes, yes, yes, yes.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
NBC laid off one hundred and fifty employees, roughly seven
percent of their newsroom, and in the process dissolved they're
dedicated editorial teams. Their editorial team that covered black issues,
their Latino issue team, their Asian American issue team, their
(24:44):
LGBTQ community team. Gosh, what's left If you don't have
these specific constituency group beats, you would just have to
cover the news.
Speaker 4 (25:03):
How boring.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
Nobody in the news. The basic old news is bold
and courageous. The move is part of a reorganization that
separates MSNBC from NBC News under a new entity called Versant.
Executives describe the decision as an efficiency measure to eliminate
(25:29):
overlap and streamline operations across NBC Universal's news divisions, but
it also dismantles the network's identity based teams NBC BLK,
NBC Latino, NBC Asian America, and NBC Out. The homos
are very angry. Rich Ferraro with GLAD says the move
(25:53):
is part of a dangerous pattern. It's dangerous, I tell
you of mainstream media outlets choosing to lose trusted and
talented journalists who focus on impotent lgb oh sorry, important
LGBTQ news that otherwise is underreported or not.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
Reported at all.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
But who will report on the LGBTQ news if we
don't have a reporter who is one and dedicated to
just covering one. If you ever have flash on your
screen one of these dedicated beats and their news, it's
(26:40):
the saddest damn thing you've ever seen. You actually feel
sorry for them because the way it works is they
don't have anything to write about. You run out of
stuff pretty fast. You know, you have this black news sites,
(27:01):
and the problem is there isn't enough news. That's just
black news. You know, guy scores a touchdown, Well that's
not black news. That's about that, says football news. Guy
gets a new job, Well that's not black news, it's
just news. So it has to be the first black
to do this, right, So there's only first, so many
(27:26):
firsts you can have, so you'll do you try to
find the first black person to throw a baseball left handed,
standing on his ear with.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
His toes double joined. It just it gets ridiculous and absurd.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
It's not you're not reporting on anything that anyone is
reading and thinking, Wow, I am up to date on
what's going on in.
Speaker 4 (27:49):
The world now.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
So there's that kind of news the first, and then
there is always coverage of black organizations. They do this
in Houston. Houston Chronicle does this. There is Black Restaurant Week.
Oh well, what is that? That is where you're supposed
to go to black owned restaurants. Oh, everybody, You're just
(28:13):
black people, everybody. But if everybody comes, you will be
mad that we've appropriated your seats.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
Then you'll.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Then you'll blow up and start. They'll be hair pulling
and wig snatch and we can't have that. I think
what you mean is black people need to go to
black owned restaurants for Black Week.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
Is that what you mean. I think that's what you mean.
I'll do that for you. Think that's what you mean.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
So there is always the and then there's there's various
black chambers of commerce. There's a you know, you wonder
about this, so Black Restaurant Week, Well, do y'all, So
y'all are black owned restaurants. How's your restaurant any different.
We're black owned. Okay, well, why is that important? Why
(29:03):
is that something we need to know. I'm just curious.
We don't have restaurants with tile flooring associations where only
restaurants with tile flooring gathered together they support of us.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
We have tile flooring. Why would we.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
It's not relevant. Do you also participate in the other
restaurant weeks that everybody hates and people do hate them.
By the way, the most hated event in restaurants in Houston,
in every shop, every operator right now is not in
their head. They already know what I'm going to say,
is Houston Restaurant Week. Houston Restaurant Week is this thing
(29:44):
that was put together by one of Cleverly Stone Cleverly.
Cleverly was a big fan of ours.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
Nice lad.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Nothing against Cleverly. You worked our show, Jim, You're you're
kind of a forest gump of weird stuff. So anyway,
I liked Cleverly. She was very nice to me.
Speaker 4 (30:02):
She was a big fan.
Speaker 3 (30:03):
She would she would send nice things when I say
things on air. Nothing against them, Cleverly, But let me
tell you what Houston Restaurant Week is. And I think
she passed away, so I don't have to feel bad
about saying this, although I think they still do it.
So they go to the restaurants and they say, hey,
use to restaurant Week, and it's kind of like groupon
restaurants are always looking for ways to make more money
(30:25):
because they're all struggling. They're all struggling all the time.
And even if they weren't struggling, a lot of restaurant
owners are gamblers and drunks and they go through multiple divorces.
Not my show sponsors, but this is true of a
lot of restaurants, and this is true of the industry.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
So they're always looking for more money.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
They're always short of cash because they either don't have
any cash or when they do have cash, they blow.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
It's it's the nature of the beast.
Speaker 3 (30:52):
It's a personality type very similar to the personality type
that is a bartender. But that's another subject for another day.
So you restaurant Week. The way that works is they
go to them and get any of this business. We're
gonna have all these people, we're gonna promote it, and
we're gonna list the restaurants in there, and the only
place people are going to go during that week is
the Restaurants Center in Houston restaurant week and you want
to be in there.
Speaker 4 (31:13):
Okay, I'll do it.
Speaker 6 (31:14):
I do it.
Speaker 7 (31:14):
I do it.
Speaker 4 (31:15):
And by the way, uh, some of what we raise
is going to go to charity.
Speaker 3 (31:20):
Oh wow, okay, all right, okay, so supporting charity and
going to be really busy. Now here's we're going to
work with you in your menu. So the menu goes,
you need to charge less than usual, and well, you
need to charge less than usual, and you have to
have restaurant week offerings. All right, So the restaurant changes it.
(31:41):
So the first year they do it, they're always really excited.
And then what they realize is, just like groupon, you
want quality, not quantity. Every restaurant, every bar, every business
comes to the point that they learn you don't want
every person out there as a customer. Some people will
cost you more money showing up than staying home. And
(32:06):
you get young people for instance, groups of people who
come together, for instance. So people have this idea of
you know, here's my customer base, and I don't make
as much as i'd like to, but it's pretty good.
I like more of people just like my customer base,
but I like more of those people, and that's not
who comes during the restaurant week. And during restaurant week
(32:28):
gets crowded with people who send their food back and
complain and don't tip and they're obnoxious and all that,
and your regulars can't get a reservation that week, so
they're mad about it.
Speaker 4 (32:37):
So it's caused a bunch of folks to drop out
a future restaurant week. Obviously, good thank you, I mean
good night.
