7-1-25 - 9am - Bridge Backer Backs Away and Building Alligater Alcatraz

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Paying taxes to a government that represents foreigners instead of Americans.
It's definitely tax station without representation. Do you agree?

Speaker 2 (00:11):
Yep, I do agree.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
And by the way, thanks for sending me a story
that appeared at six It was probabished six forty two
pm last night on nine News. Now you may remember
we started the entire program out with the end of
Civilization news that Michael Brown and Kyle Clark are in

(00:37):
Sabbatigo with Governor Poulos's pet project, his little pp if
somebody called it this pet project, well apparently here here
is the headline of nine News. Now I think I
got this teed up. Wheld'll play without the commercial, but
who knows, I'm playing it live on radio, so we'll
just hang on. Headline is pedestrian bridge.

Speaker 4 (00:58):
Backer backs out plans for a twenty nine dollars pedestrian
bridge project on the front lawn of the state capitol.
Despite struggling to find people who support that project, Two
people testified in favor of Governor Polus's bridge at a
capitol committee recently. Won A school teacher declined to tell
us on the record who had arranged for her to testify.

(01:20):
The other person, a well known accessibility advocate reached out
to me after work to say that he felt humiliated
and used by the Governor's office. You worked on accessibility
projects around Denver for a long time.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Yes, yes, yes.

Speaker 5 (01:36):
Do you regret testifying in favor of the governor's pedestrian
bridge project most most Stuart Tucker Lundy says the Governor's
office arranged for him to testify in favor of the
twenty nine million dollar pedestrian bridge project by appealing to
his years of work advocating for accessibility.

Speaker 4 (01:52):
Lundy says it wasn't until he was in the committee
room that he realized that accessibility was an afterthought of
the Governor's legacy project, just one of many shifting reasons
offered for the project as it's faced public scrutiny.

Speaker 6 (02:04):
But as I sat there, I knew I had messed up.
You realized in the room, Oh yes, oh yes, I
was definitely.

Speaker 4 (02:12):
Lundy called me the next day to say he felt
humiliated and used.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
But I did.

Speaker 6 (02:16):
Phil views a little bit like my blackness. The I
know optics call, I know optics. I know right now
with the fact that he's sitting in his chair as
a fifty seven year old black man, a black man
in a wheelchair. That carries a lot of attention, It
carries a lot of responsibility.

Speaker 7 (02:36):
And I know that he said he worries his testimony
convinced committee members to advance that project he now sees
as a waste of money, to the point that he
wants to apologize if he influenced their votes.

Speaker 6 (02:46):
And you know, to be quite honest, the Madam chair,
I want to apologize because I looked her dead in
her eye and I saw what she had empathy.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
That was her vote. They empathy. You are't gonna be
yourself if they build this.

Speaker 8 (03:01):
Thing, are you?

Speaker 2 (03:01):
Oh? God, yes, God, yes, yes, I would.

Speaker 8 (03:05):
I would because it's not necessary.

Speaker 4 (03:07):
Do you think you're gonna catch blowback for coming out
and saying this?

Speaker 9 (03:10):
Probably?

Speaker 6 (03:12):
But you know what, that's why America good. I love
America because I know what's wrong.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
I know what's right. And mah.

Speaker 4 (03:23):
Next stop for the bridge proposal is a committee that
oversees projects at the Capitol Say full disclosure. They commentary
here on next last week, I've referred to the project
as a monument to government waste. If you're interested in
seeing our full six minute deep dive on the bridge project.
It's posted at nine news dot com on the next
YouTube channel.

Speaker 3 (03:43):
And it's also posted at Michael saysgo here dot com,
which is unusual because generally when we put things up
on there are from nine News. We put those things
up because we're mocking men and making fun of them.
I never watched nine News, and of course Kyle and
I have a mutual disrespect for each other. I don't

(04:05):
know what you would.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
Call it, but wow. Now, the next job, Kyle, if I.

Speaker 3 (04:12):
Could play your you know, your assignment editor for a moment,
is to keep digging to find out who that teacher was,
What was the teacher's testimony, Why did the teacher now
back out also or not want to come on air
and say, eh, you know what, I made a mistake.
I'm telling you what, Governor. I know your staff listens,
I know somebody and your staff. You you have somebody

(04:34):
track what is said over here on iHeart. So if
you have more than just a little peepee a pet project,
if you really have a big peepee, you would stand
up and you would say, you know what, I'm no,
we're not going to do this. The public's not for it. Yes,

(04:56):
it's a vanity project. I'm not gonna ask my billionaire
friends like Larry Isael or end Shoots to pay for it.
I'm not gonna ask any of thebody to pay for it.
And I'm not gonna pay for it. I'm gonna save
that twenty nine million dollars so I can fill the potholes,
so Michael Brown and his audience will quit bitching about
the potholes and the highways. I'm going to clean up
the state. I'm gonna I'm gonna clean Eye twenty five

(05:18):
and I seventy. Yeah, maybe I'll build some more runaway
truck ramps. Maybe I'll do something worthwhile for a change. Jared,
if you have if you want to leave a legacy,
and if you ever want to run for office again,
because I know you want to be I know you
go back to call. Look, you're not gonna be president.

(05:39):
Let's just submit it. Unless the country has gone so
far down the hill that we're gonna elect somebody just
so weak. You say we elected a gay man, then
we're gonna You're not gonna make it. We don't want
a white, bald headed gay man to be president, not
because you're gay, and not because you're bald. But you
combine them all together with everything you've done to destroy
the state, you all already have a rival that you

(06:01):
cannot beat, and that's Gavin Newsom. You can't beat Gavin Newsom.
He's got the cooft hair, he's got it greased up
just right. He knows how to speak, he knows how
to and in fact, he knows how to go to
the French laundry. So just back off, governor, come on,

(06:24):
just back off, if because.

Speaker 10 (06:27):
You know.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
That every single time when the legislature starts back up
and they're scrambling trying to find I don't care whether
they're trying to find five million dollars or five hundred
million dollars. I know where to find twenty nine million dollars.
And it'll be right out there on the stupid state
capitol grounds that will be infested, absolutely infested with homeless people,

(06:49):
with drug addicts, with crime, with graffiti. There will be,
it will be. It'll be the bug light for everything
bad in Colorado. It'll have your name on it. Yeah,
if you've a thought about that, that'll be your legacy.
And then ten years from now it'll start falling apart.
It'll start falling apart because of deferred maintenance, and then

(07:11):
we won't have the we won't have we won't have
the money to take care of the deferred maintenance. So
it'll start crumbling. It'll start crumbing, you know, it'll there'll
be a chip here, there'll be a little crack in
the concrete somewhere, or there'll be something on the wall
that will get hit, or somebody will crash into one
of the pilings somewhere, and they'll you know, you have
to close it off, and it'll get even worse. So Governor,

(07:33):
come on, you're you're actually, as much as I hate
your politics, you're a smart man, and you're a fairly
shrewd politician. Not quite as shrewd as you think you are,
but you're somewhat shrewd. So what you need to do
is just back off. And I would once again encourage
everybody to call the governor's office, call your state rep in,

(07:55):
your state senator, and shut down this absurdity.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
Downtown Denver sucks enough.

Speaker 3 (08:03):
Do you just want to add one more honey trap
for all the dreads of society to go down there?
Don't do it, Absolutely, don't do it. And I wouldn't
you know. I forget the thing of that gentleman that
Clark was talking to, but fairly heavyset guy. He's in

(08:24):
a motorized wheelchair and he was I'm sure.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
He was used.

Speaker 3 (08:29):
The only criticism I would have of him is if
as you sat there in the hearing room and you
knew at that moment, at least what you told Kyle
Clark was that you knew you had been had, Why
didn't you just back out then? Although, now that I
think about it, probably good that you didn't, because otherwise

(08:53):
we would have just glossed over it. But you actually
picked up the phone and called Kyle or his producer
and told him that you had made a huge mistake.
So congratulation to you for owning up to your mistake
and telling them you don't care about blowback, that you
just want to do the right thing because you love Colorado.

(09:15):
We need more people like you. I never thought that
story would take that turn today. That was something that
I simply did not see coming.

Speaker 2 (09:31):
Twenty six to fifty.

Speaker 3 (09:32):
Rights Michael, thank you for breaking down and offering account
of you to Warnock's speech. The problem is, I see
it is one that I am personally looking at as
a board member for local nonprofit that rescues food that
would otherwise be thrown away by grocery stores and restaurants
and redistribute them into meals we make twice a week
and local pantries. Our nonprofit is run on volunteer hours

(09:55):
and has only one part time employee. Our elderly population
continues to grow in our Our meals help them stay
in their homes longer. We are constantly being pressured by
the county Board of Supervisors to apply for grants. Some
grants are privately funded and others come from county tax funds.
I struggle with the idea of applying for tax funded grants,

(10:19):
but the networks set themselves up to intertwine private donations
through the United Way with tax dollars through the county
Human Services Fund. I live in a heavily Democrat county
due to one city in the county, and nothing will change,
can we or how don't take the money. I can't

(10:42):
say this on air without vetting you, but if you're
struggling for money and you obviously are in you're obviously
in the listening zone and it appears to me other
than your area code throws me off. If you're in

(11:05):
Colorado and you will allow me to vet your organization,
I'll give the name of your organization and I'll encourage
people to fund you. I only say that if you're
in Colorado because I won't be able to succeed very
well if you're not in Colorado, because while I do
have a national audience, most of that is from Saturday,

(11:28):
it's not from during the weekday. Although our weekday numbers
from national from the national audience are really good. So
if you'll send me some details about your organization and
maybe email me a copy of your nine to ninety
or something, I'd be happy to look at it and
give your name out Michael Brown at iHeartMedia dot com

(11:48):
and we'll take it from there. But my advice is
don't take the money. Ask yourself this, why are the
county commissioners putting pressure on you to take a grant
based on might government experience. They're trying to unload some money.

(12:11):
They're trying to unload some money that, if it's not
otherwise spent, is going to be taken back. So ask
them why, Just say why are you so adamant that
I take the money now? They I don't, since I
don't know anything other than what you've texted me. Maybe
they'll tell you the truth. Hey we got some money

(12:32):
we got to get rid of. Or maybe they really
feel badly about your organization, they really do want to help. Well,
if they really do want to help, then tell them
to help you start fundraising. Tell them to do that.
And by the way, God speed to you too, because
this is precisely when I cite those scriptures. This is

(12:55):
precisely what the scriptures are talking about. This is the
commune a tea that I referred to. It's not the government.
It's not the city in County of Denver. It's not
Highland Ranch, Colorado. It's not Montrose. It's not any of
those places. It is this is the community that when
if you, if you want to infer that the Bible

(13:16):
is talking about community, this is the kind of community
that we're talking about those who would support this kind
of organization. Speaking in Montrose, have you heard this. This
is a very little reported story, but city of Montrose. Again,
this involves a church. City of Montrose, a place that

(13:37):
I always thought would be a great place to retire to.
It's just it's far enough away. Yet it has enough amenities.

Speaker 2 (13:44):
Uh it has. It has high speed internet, so that's
that's what I care about. Uh.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
And it's got an airport, so good. I can go
through TSA at Montrose and not go through TSA at Denver.

Speaker 7 (13:55):
Ah.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
There's a big plus right there. Montrose has a municipal
judge like any almost every town does. And there was
a dispute between a church. I forget whether it was
a Methodist church or another one, but there was a
dispute between the church and the city. So the dispute
ends up in front the municipal judge. The municipal judge

(14:18):
does what she is supposed to do.

Speaker 2 (14:21):
She considered.

Speaker 3 (14:23):
Both sides of the issue, She looked at the law,
and she made a decision, and she ruled against the
city of Montrose. So what does Montrose do? They fire her?
They fire her? Wait a minute, is this the old
Soviet Union? Has Communism spuilt over the Continental Divide in

(14:48):
over into Montrose. Really a judge rules against you, So
have you disappeared her yet? Do we know has Inbate
checked the body temperature? Is she okay? She rules against
you and you fire her? Now the story I read
said that they had had communications issues. Well, I imagine

(15:09):
they had. She heard a case and she communicated to
the City of Montrose. You lose the church wins or
maybe it's on a motion or something. But here's here's
the excuda. Gross about the entire story. They fired her. Now,
I think she probably has a good retaliatory discrimination of
retaliatory retaliatory employment action because if she was doing her

(15:33):
job based on the law and they fired her, even
the city manager myths that, well, maybe the timing was off.
Maybe maybe you should have waited a little while longer.
Oh man, I'd love to see those public records. I'd
like to see her reviews. I'd like to see you know,
what does the community think of this judge? Does the

(15:54):
community think that they that she treated you know, people
that ran a red light or people that were speeding
where they treated fairly, or somebody had a nuisance charge
of a Does she treat the defendant fairly? Uh, you
had communications issues and you're concerned about the timing, Maybe, Bugo,
you should have thought about that before you fired her

(16:15):
after she ruled against the town.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
God, I love local politics.

Speaker 3 (16:20):
It's so it's it's as nasty as the as it
is at the federal level except here. Wow, oh, our
poor guy with the food bank is in Iowa. Well
I wish you well, you just go raise money. I
don't know where in Iowa you are, but come on,

(16:41):
Iowan's come on, get out of the cornfields and go
go give us outfits some money. I still don't want
to give the name with that doing the without doing
some sort of vetting. Anyway, back to Montrose, she rules
against the town, the town fires or the city manager

(17:01):
amidst the timing wasn't good and they had so called
communications issues. Wow, Colorado really is, well COMMI Colorado. We
need to change, you know, we're a head of out
of town. And maybe I'll stop and spray paint one

(17:23):
of the signs instead of welcome to color for Colorado,
welcome to COMMI Colorado, because well, that's kind of what
we're turning into.

Speaker 4 (17:31):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (17:31):
Nine two four nine, writes Michael, listening listening to you
described Newsom's hair and Jared's loss to be president. I
now have a vision of Jared wanting to mimic Newsom's hair.
Tell me how do I erase the vision division of
Jared with a greased up bald head.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
You don't think about it.

Speaker 3 (17:52):
Tonight before you go to bed, You're gonna think about
Jared's greased up bald head and the bridge to Nowhere.

Speaker 10 (18:02):
Hey Michael, I'm just responding to what you were saying
about your national audience when you were talking about the
gentleman with a charitable organization. I'm just curious if you
actually get the numbers on how many national listeners you have.
I myself listen to you every day from Ohio. In fact,

(18:23):
when I came across you and started following you daily,
it changed the way that I listened to the radio.
And I think there's a lot of us out there.

Speaker 3 (18:32):
Hey Dragon, can you say that and send that to me?
MB three? No, would you please? I need to send
that to Los Angeles?

Speaker 2 (18:38):
No please? No crumble cookie deal.

Speaker 3 (18:46):
Okay, But I do have some bad news for you too,
because I know you don't read them, so I'm here
to read.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
Them for you.

Speaker 3 (18:55):
We've got the email about what's happening at iHeartMedia.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
Yeah, I just yeah, Well, if you read the headlines
on those anymore, the iHeart top five, you're not in it.
I am shocked. So we have number one? Is uh?
Is it ever?

Speaker 3 (19:14):
Eva Longoria, Eva eva eva longoria. That's the number one story.
The number two story I had to go back and
reread because it now has pissed me off. This year's
I Heart Cafe in cons celebrated content, creativity, and conversation.
In mid June, advertising industry leaders convened in conn, France

(19:39):
for conversations and celebrations at the annual cons Lions Festival
of Creativity. iHeart was at the center of it all,
once again hosting a series of unique events at the
iHeart Cafe. We have a cafe in France at the
con festival. Yeah, how's that bonus coming? How's how's that?

Speaker 2 (20:03):
Oh hey, at least they're matching our Furrow and k again.

Speaker 3 (20:06):
Well, at least the TVs are working. I got the
TV working for the National showdown on the on the
third floor.

Speaker 8 (20:13):
Did you see they removed our picture of the analog
clock and put up a non functional digital clock.

Speaker 3 (20:24):
Well, the union person who was in charge of plugging
it in, he's on vacation this week. Yeah, so it'll
be by next week he'll be plugged in. But the
hole where we had the paper clock showing the time
and cutter which was always at eight fifty am and
then sometimes it's eight fifty pm.

Speaker 2 (20:44):
The hole is still there.

Speaker 3 (20:45):
Yeah, so maybe we should put something else to cover
that hole, but not a clock. What we can we
put maybe a picture.

Speaker 2 (20:53):
Of a TV, picture of a TV, picture of a TV.

Speaker 3 (20:56):
So that was the number two story we have. We
have a cafe in cons you know, I think arm
moments to make a trip. Maybe we'll make a trip
to France and we'll go down to the Mediterranean.

Speaker 2 (21:05):
We'll go to the iHeart Cafe.

Speaker 3 (21:08):
Number three, I've got a pair of ray Band metaglasses
and iHeartRadio now integrates with that, so I can now
listen to myself on my metaglasses.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
That's fantastic.

Speaker 3 (21:19):
Number four, iHeart brings podcasts to a global audience. Well,
you know that's happening with me, so I'm not going
to complain about that one. Number five the iHeart Album
Premiere Broadcast with Benson Boone to show my cultural ignorance.
Who's Benson Boone?

Speaker 2 (21:37):
Not a clue? Oh you really don't know, no idea.
Let's see.

Speaker 3 (21:45):
iHeart and Benson Boone celebrate the release of his new
album American Heart with the iHeartRadio Album Premiere Broadcast.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
With Benson Boone hum.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
It aired across all CHR and hot AC radio stations
on June twenty eighth at midnight. Why why Okay, I
don't know what. Let's see iHeart News Service to America Awards.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
Obviously you and I are not in that one.

Speaker 3 (22:14):
The Big Three and iHeart announced multiplatform partnership.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
Well, we're not in that one.

Speaker 3 (22:18):
Commanders, the Washington Commanders and iHeart DC extend their partnership.
I wonder if you'll extend our partnership with the Rockies.
I wonder how that's going. Oh, then there's the exclusive
employee flyaway contest when a VIP trip for two to
the twenty twenty five iHeartRadio Music Festival. I know you'll
enter that one again you haven't yet to go. And

(22:42):
then let's see celebrate. Oh here it is now. I
found you celebrating our iHeart team. Let's see there's someone
from Chicago, there's someone from New York, there's somebody else
from Chicago. Then there's somebody from Chicago. You didn't make
the iHeart employee. You're not nobody celebrating the Heart team

(23:09):
over here in our low corner of the world. Nobody's
celebrating us, which is status quo. So I told you
earlier that Trump is scheduled to go to Alligator Alcatraz,
and I told you I've got a problem with that moniker.
Although doesn't really own no BFD, I guess.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
Eduling.

Speaker 5 (23:31):
Note.

Speaker 11 (23:31):
Tomorrow, President Trump will travel to the Great State of
Florida to attend the opening of a new illegal alien
detention center.

Speaker 3 (23:39):
Which he's doing, I'm sorry, which he's doing right now.
Trump takes questions at new Migrant Detention Facility.

Speaker 11 (23:47):
DAID Call Your Training and Transition Airport, alongside Secretary Christinome,
Governor Rond De Santis, Congressman Byron Donalds, and other state
and local leaders. We hope to see many of you there.
The facility is in the part of the other Everglades
and will be informally known as Alligator Alcatraz.

Speaker 4 (24:05):
There is only one road.

Speaker 11 (24:06):
Leading in and there is the only way out is
a one way flight. It is isolated and surrounded by
dangerous wildlife and unforgiving terrain. The facility will have up
to five thousand beds to house, process, and deport criminal
illegal aliens. This is an efficient and low cost way
to help carry out the largest mass deportation campaign in

(24:28):
American history.

Speaker 3 (24:30):
Good Now, the environmental wacos, the congregants in the Church
of the Climate activists are really upset about this. Environmentalists
and Democrats, but I repeat myself, have come out against
the detention center, including lining up along Highway forty one,
which runs through the Everglades, to protest its construction. Protesters

(24:53):
held signs declaring another stupid plan to abuse people in
the Everglades. No alligator alcatraz Our is pushed out of Florida.
Various federal state agencies such as the Department of Homeland
Security in Flora's Division of Emergency Management. We're additionally hit
with a lawsuit Friday, I told you earlier this was
going to happen, spearheaded by a pair of environmental groups

(25:16):
that claim that the detention facility will disrupt and threaten
the Everglades ecosystem. According to the AP, it's already built,
it was being used. I don't get it. And tribal leaders,
of course, oppressed Indians tribal leader. Tribal leaders are outraged

(25:38):
by the construction of the site, claiming they trace their
rights to the sacred land back thousands of years well
don't their sacred lands also include Miami Dade County Monroe County,
which is where the Florida Keys are located. What about

(25:58):
West Palm About Orlando Disneyland, didn't they once claim all
of that land too? Why are they picking on Alligator Alcatraz.
But here's some good news. It will only house five
thousand illegal aliens. Yeah, that's it. So speaking of the crazies.

Speaker 2 (26:20):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (26:21):
Senator Mark Wayne Mullen, Republican Senator from Oklahoma, Well, he
seems to be in the news a lot late lately.
Won't you okies tell me something about this Senator Mark
Wayne Mullen, because he seems to be the Chuck Schumer
of the Republican Party Because a minute there's a camera on,
he seems to be there. Well, not only did he
venture into NBC News last weekend, but he sat down

(26:44):
with meet the depressed left wing propagandist Kristin Wilkin, who
subjected him and anybody was watching it, to some sort
of cartoonish email blackmail of course, over illegal eight immigration.
Now he attempted to speak the truth to the useful
idiots that were watching.

Speaker 2 (27:03):
I was not, Uh.

Speaker 3 (27:05):
Wilker dismissed Bullen's argument in favor of a work requirement
for Medicaid with the assertion that ninety two percent of
people in Medicaid are either working or qualified for an exemption.

Speaker 9 (27:17):
And what is so hard about requiring an able body,
individual with no dependence, no sickness, to work twenty hours
a week?

Speaker 2 (27:24):
Paymen?

Speaker 3 (27:26):
If you're able bodied, you're able to work, you have
no dependence, you have no children, then why are you
a Medicaid?

Speaker 2 (27:34):
To begin with, why why aren't you what? What?

Speaker 3 (27:39):
Because if if you're on Medicaid, that probably means you're
also in SNAP, You're probably also in whatever other social
benefits we you know, give to Why aren't you working?

Speaker 9 (27:51):
I know you work more than twenty hours this week
and alone? What is so hard about having a work
requirement there with someone that has no medical condition and
no dependent. We don't pay people in this country to
be lazy. We want to give them an opportunity and
when they're going through a hard time, we want.

Speaker 2 (28:06):
To give them a help in hand.

Speaker 9 (28:07):
That's what Medicaid was designed for and it's unfortunately it's
been abused. And so what we are focused on is
making sure that Medicaid is there for people in the
future that need it and get rid of the fraud,
waste and abduce.

Speaker 12 (28:19):
It's just worth noting ninety two percent of people on
Medicaid are either working or would qualify for an exemption.
I do want to move on to to this landmark
Supreme Court decision though, that basically.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
Ninety two percent.

Speaker 3 (28:33):
I like to know where she got those numbers, because
that begs at least three questions that.

Speaker 2 (28:37):
He was not given a chance to ask.

Speaker 3 (28:39):
Are the either Are the other eight percent not an
expensive problem because they probably are? How easy for mooching
lovers to exploit? Are these exemptions that she talks about?
And how many of that ninety two percent don't qualify
for any benefits whatsoever because.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
They happen to be illegal aliens? Yeah, that's what ugs me.

Speaker 8 (29:01):
Hey, Michael and Dragon. My name is Jamie and I
listened in Louisville, Kentucky. Mainly I listen on the weekend
on Saturdays from noon to three on ninety three whatever
it is and Freedom ninety three seven. But I also
listened to the weekday show right here on iHeartRadio from Louisville, Kentucky.

Speaker 3 (29:20):
Thanks man, Dragon, you know what I got to get
off masks, order that map.

Speaker 2 (29:25):
I know we need it.

Speaker 3 (29:26):
We need the map. We got to have the map.
That'll be my project while I'm gone.

Speaker 2 (29:32):
I'll do that. To quote Dean Vernon Warmer.

Speaker 3 (29:37):
Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life.
But don't blame Rosie Rosie o'donald. In her case, the
first two are Trump's fault. Fat, drunken, well stupid. I
guess is her own fault.

Speaker 2 (29:52):
Oh. Donald.

Speaker 3 (29:53):
Rosie said that President Donald Trump's first term took a
severe toll on her mental and physical health, leading her
to overeat overdrink and leave the United States for Ireland
for self preservation following his November election win. So she
appeared last week on the Cris Clomo Project podcast, and

(30:17):
she revealed that Trump's presidency, particularly his second election victory,
drove her to leave the country for her own well
being and for her autistic non binary child. And I
mean this respectfully. I'm not trying to make fun here.
For the well being of her autistic non binary child.

(30:40):
If the child is autistic and non binary, I'd say
there were problems that existed long before Trump was elected.
So if you needed to move to Ireland, to take
care of your child. I'm okay with that, but don't
blame Trump for your overeating. And you're overdrinking. And by
the way, if you're really going learned about your autistic

(31:01):
non binary child, maybe you ought to stop overeating and
over drinking.

Speaker 2 (31:05):
But I know who am I to say?

Speaker 3 (31:08):
I mean, who could have guessed that a child, by
the way, she was adopted into one of Rosie's parodies
of a family would turn out to be messed up.
She's married other women twice and they were both very
short lived. She went on telling Cloma that I was very,
very depressed. I was overeating, I was overdrinking. So she

(31:30):
says she abandoned America for the sake of her endangered
mental health. I'm not sure it's accomplished anything. I'm not
sure how long you exactly how long you have to
be gone for it to do something. But man, oh man,
she's got some serious problems.

Speaker 2 (31:50):
It seems to me that one of the things this
comes from Germany.

Speaker 3 (31:56):
In an interview with something called the Club Declaren Forte
portal caabaary artist Monica Gruber told an almost unbelievable story.
A friend of hers had written the script I think
for German public broadcaster Ard. It was then suggested to
him whether it would be okay if his name was
not shown in the film credits, but instead show a

(32:17):
female name and a name with a migration background. According
to him, it was supposed to be an Arabic name.
His reasoning it wouldn't go down well if you could
tell from his name that he was an old white guy. Oh,
so you're going to fake your name in order to
get people to watch what you've written.

Speaker 2 (32:39):
Man, were nuts.
