Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, thanks Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of

(00:02):
you for being with us. Happy Monday eight is happy.
The Oscars, which I didn't even barely know was on.
I mean, this thing tanked eight hundred nine four one
sewn Tolfree telephone number. I hope you'll call in today
be a part of this extravaganza. I mean, if you
go back in twenty fourteen, over forty million Americans watched

(00:26):
the Oscars, You want to go back further, well, Joe
Conscha on the program later today, nineteen ninety eight. Fifty
plus million people watched the Oscars twenty fourteen, not that
long ago. Forty million people. Last year eighteen point one million,
this year eight point nine. An unmitigated failure, anumitigated disaster.

(00:53):
Now somebody had sent me this. Where did I see this? Somewhere?
That The New York Times actually talked to one of
the producers of the Oscars on the condition of anonymity
and told The New York Times that data found when
you can actually get breakdown minute by minute ratings and
their post show analysis. Ratings analysis indicated that tons of

(01:15):
people tuned out, I tuned off their television when these celebrities,
the elite in Hollywood start lecturing their audience. They don't
want to hear it, and they're turning out. And I'm
telling this, you can see the same thing what's happening
to athletics. This is where I don't think athletes have
really thought through the impact to their lives, their futures,

(01:39):
their careers. Look. One of the things I know because
I've interviewed many professional athletes over the course of my
life and know a lot of kids are athletes in
college and high school and hard they all have to work.
I mean, it is big time. It's a full time
job to be a top performing athlete. It just is.

(01:59):
And that's everything from you know, stretching and strength training
and conditioning and stamina and all these other things on
top of whatever the skill set you need for your
specific sport. But you can see it happening in with
the NFL. Their ratings have been way down the last
couple of years. You can see it the NBA playoff numbers.

(02:22):
I mean, Hannity, my little TV show, was beating it significantly.
You can see it. In late ninth television. You know,
people bring up all of these shows fallon and Colbert
and Kimmel and Sets whatever his name is, and that
hates me and their ratings suck. I mean Set Meyers

(02:44):
gets less than a million viewers a night. Last year,
you know, we averaged over four million, set a record
for any one year in cable news, but not getting
now always post presidential election year you see a decline.
But we're beating every one of those shows by like
a million viewers on an average night because nobody wants

(03:06):
to hear or be lectured too. And when it comes
to athletics, is where the MLB and the NBA their
ratings sucked, their playoff ratings suck, and the and the
NFL they're missing out something here. If you want to
look why do we love sports? And why is why

(03:28):
are sports so good for communities? Because if you look
at the people in the stands, you've got a diverse crowd.
You have people of all backgrounds, all races, all creeds, religions.
They're there for one reason is they love their team.
It's an opportunity for people to put aside the day

(03:50):
to day stress that we all have and problems and
politics and go to a ball game, have a beer
or two, sometimes three, and eat a hot dog, have
some popcorn, get cotton candy, whenever you get your kids
the junk they like, and you have a great day
and everyone's cheering for the same team. Then you add

(04:12):
pop politics to this. This is what Colin Koppernick, you know,
didn't understand, or Lebron James clearly doesn't understand. Is okay, Well,
now people are viewing less. That means that that rights
fees are going to eventually go down because they're not
going to be able to sustain the ad rates that

(04:33):
are needed to get the rights to run these these
sporting events. And then it's it's going to be a
ripple effect. And then when attendance goes down, well, then
the net result of that is players, professionals, they're gonna
be paid less money because they're not going to have
the money to pay these big salaries. But by the

(04:55):
way that many of these athletes, I mean, the best
of the best deserve and and have worked hard for
and we should all be happy for them. I mean,
I like watching people that are at the top level
of whatever their profession happens to be. I marvel at
their gifts, their talent and the work that I know

(05:16):
went on behind the scenes for them to get that
good and I you know, and and the thing is is,
if there is a cause or a passion of an athlete,
they would have the good will of everybody in the
stands and everybody at home. If you just go out

(05:36):
and say, listen the violence in Chicago. I live, I
care about this. I want to stop this. I want
to offer kids alternatives to the failing public schools. And
if they were to ask their fans to join with them, somebody,
you know, like Lebron James got over fifty million Twitter

(05:56):
followers were crying out loud. It's I guarantee you his
fans would unite instead of taking, you know, the devisive
political rhetoric route that that so many other people do,
you know. And it's just sad that they just they
don't seem to have any desire to do any of
these things. And it's um it's in our pol people

(06:19):
want there. There are moments even I that am you know,
I live, eat, breathe, sleep, my job, my work, it's
my passion. I'd love to do this every day. I'm honored,
I'm blessed. I'm appreciative that you give me this microphone
every day and that camera every night, because frankly, these
are troubled times for this country. I couldn't be any

(06:40):
more concerned about the future than I am now with
a sense of urgency that that just doesn't leave me.
It's it's that real what we're dealing with with, you know, now,
the biggest power grab ever attempted by any major political
party in the history of the country. I want to
talk about policing and defunding and or dismantling the police. Okay, Well,

(07:05):
the twenty four or so shot this weekend in Chicago,
four dead seven year old little girl. Eighteen year old
man expected to appear in court to face charges in
the fatal shooting of seven year old Joscelyn Adams. Remember
who that person was? H Wasn't that why profile the case?

(07:26):
Remember she was the little girl that died in a
hail of bullets fired into her family car while going
through McDonald's drive through in Chicago first grade or shot
six times as she and her father were in a
drive through at McDonald's. I mean, can you imagine, you
know what it's like when you take your kids to McDonald's. No,

(07:47):
I don't know if Linda takes poor Liam. I don't
know if he gets to go to McDonald's. Does he
get to go to McDonald's so he does not go
to McDonald's. How could you not take it's unfair, It's
it's borderline madness. Every kid loves a happy meal. They're
gonna put a pole. I'm gonna put a happy on
handity dot com. You know it's gonna say I don't

(08:09):
need it much because I can't because I can't eat
like I. Oh my god, you're so full of it.
First of all, when you're on the road, you are
the worst eater I have ever been around in my life.
Wait a minute, the key words here? When I'm on
the road show. You put on enough calories on a
book tour for an entire dust of acrobats. It's unbelievable.

(08:32):
What do you what do you mean? Dude? This is you?
This is you in the um. What's that place that
you love? In and out? In and out Burger? This
is you. I would like um animal something I want?
I want the straw me on my burger. What it's
not as crowd You're mixing it up with Crownburger. That's

(08:54):
I don't know. All I know is that that we're
fried everything fried, French fries, fried, oreos fried. But they
take onions. If you watch them in and out Burger,
they actually have real potatoes and they slice them in
front of you, peel them slices that make them less
fattening when they put it fresh oil and every day,
and they're delicious. French fries are the coolest, one of
the coolest inventions God ever made. Uh huh. You're supposed

(09:17):
to disagree that God made French fries, But first of all,
God made potatoes. God made the oil to fry them. Listen,
He made, God made the God made the human being
who decided to put potatoes into French fries and single
wood cheese, catch a pickles, onions. I like a quarter
pounder withd cheese, meal, French fry, large fry, and a coke.

(09:38):
I'm telling you right now, the only thing, the only
thing my son eats, and he likes double double a. Well,
go ahead, no, he likes Chick fil At, that's it.
So do you allow him to go to Chick fil A?
I do. I like Chick fil A and I see
the way they prepare their food and it seems to
be a little bit more kenny up than the other.

(09:59):
If I ever at the babysit Liam, which you'd never
ever allowed. First of all, I am take laughing, you
live too far away. But if you have your idea
of babysitting is say yes to everything that's not you
ask Liam? You ask him Liam, would you like to
go to McDonald's and get a happy meal? You can
get chicken McNuggets or you can get a cheeseburger happy meal.

(10:21):
Would you like that with French fries? And you can
get it? You can get apple juice with it if
you want, and you get it. Well, he's five, so
you know everything is chicken and French fries right now,
So of course he would say yes to that. Okay,
then you're depriving your child of a normal childhood. That's no,
because I make French fries here in the air fryer
with no oil, and I make chicken McNuggets in the

(10:43):
air frier with no one air friar. Thank God for
air friars. Dude. That thing is amazing. Yeah, you know
what's more amazing, My master built butterball turkey fryer again
with the oil and fries in that I'm telling you,
I'm putting a pole up on Hannity dot Com and
the audience. You're gonna lose this poll. I'm not gonna
gonna say, is it okay to take your It's gonna

(11:06):
right or wrong? Wrong? Sure? What do you mean? No?
You gets all in the wording of the question. Is
it okay to take your child to McDonald's for a
happy meal? Okay? Everyone? So I'm not saying every day? Now?
Do you you let your son eat pizza at least
once a week? Once a week and let me get
what do you what? Do you put vegetables on it? Oh? No,

(11:27):
I wouldn't never do that to him. That's as bad
as eating it with a fork? Who did regular? Good pizza?
Regular pizza? Okay? Killed in Chicago? By the way, New
York City, now, remember they defunded the billion dollars out
of the NYPD. Fifty people shot forty six incidents over

(11:48):
a seven day period ending this past Sunday. Can you
believe that fifty people shot forty six separate incidents seven
day period in surge from the same week in twenty
twenty and last year wasn't particularly a good year either.
The city logged eleven shootings twelve victims during the final

(12:10):
full week of the month, more than a month into
the city's COVID lockdown, and the same twenty same as
twenty nineteen. This weekend alone, nearly two dozen shootings kept
and cops don't want to respond anymore NYPD cops. In
case you're interested, you can tie these two statistics together.

(12:31):
More than five thousand, three hundred NYPD uniform officers retired
or put in their papers to leave in twenty twenty eight,
seventy five percent hike spike from from the year before,
according to data. There the exodus amid the pandemic, the rioting, etc.

(12:55):
The lack of support, cops getting dumped with water on
their head their vehicles and vandalized, getting bullhorns in their face,
toy pigs thrown at their cars, and you know, yeah,
rocks and bottles and bricks and molotov cocktails. I mean,
why would you want to be a cop today? You
shouldn't be a cop. You know, it's police kill at

(13:18):
the oscars and every other insane thing that was said.
Although Tyler Perry's Oscar speech, he said not to hate
the police, but what did the audience do, He says, no,
they stopped clapping. I refused to hate someone because they're Mexican,
because they're African American, white, old GBTQ. I refused to

(13:39):
hate someone because they're a police officer, or because they're
they're Asian American. I would hope we refused to hate.
After the guy mentioned the police, the applause that had
begun as he was speaking, well, they just stopped clapping,
faded away into silence. All right twenty five to the
top of the hour. So we've been following this disaster.

(14:02):
Will actually give you a COVID update with doctor George
fred and doctor Brian Tyson. And you know, New York
still has six hundred thousand kids that are not attending
in person, don't have in person education. Florida had to
go in since August, Texas, Florida, all the Republican states

(14:23):
that didn't adopt draconian shutdowns did so much better, and
we're seeing this. The worst place is still Michigan. I mean,
Michigan's an unmitigated disaster. New York, of course, obviously, New Jersey, California, Pennsylvania,
New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, and not far behind

(14:47):
the executive actions on nursing homes. They all did the
same dumb thing, forcing nursing homes to take on these
COVID nineteen patients, and the death tolls reflects it and
cover up in New York, remember the very early on
as Whitmer, Whitlas Whittmer, you know, institutes these draconian shutdowns.

(15:09):
Remember her husband, you know, even though you aren't allowed to.
You know, he's special. He's taking a little boat out
and I don't know what he's planning to do with that.
Oh I'm the I'm the governor's husband. Oh, good for you.
And then we caught Governor Whitmer lying about taking a
trip to Florida. She lied because she absolutely lied through

(15:29):
a tea No I never went anywhere. No, I didn't
go anywhere, did nothing well, I would have been gets
caught and then lies about it when you get caught.
So we have a democratic lawmaker, an elected Michigan Democrat,
refusing to obey their own laws again, caught drunk driving,

(15:49):
cursing out cops, resisting arrest, fighting with paramedics, trying to
use his political connections to beat the rap. The state
Rep's name is Jule Jones crashed the v vehicle you know,
allegedly assaulted first responders attempting to help the guy and
a passenger, and it's on camera now, dash cam video

(16:12):
demanding they call Governor whit whit murdered to bail him out. Listen,
so I already want you to I already ask your
drivers take care, take my sun take out. I gotta
make sure you're not going anywhere right now. You gonna
take me with him? All right, listen to me. We're

(16:33):
gonna do this one step at a time. All right, okay,
bag on first help right now. I want your I
D and your drivers like okay. The only dollar reason
I'm tasting up. Don't get up. You're not gonna do

(17:00):
stop presenting, stop get it. I'm telling me do that.
That's not gonna be good. It's gonna be good, boy,
I'm telling do you know I run on budget? Bro,
I'm killing I do want to. I won't move. I'm
gonna know where I'm gonna talk to you. We got
that be right, give here about We're going to let

(17:23):
go my arm. I'm gonna get I would like this
because you don't right arm. But I'm presenting I'm gonna
be with Stummer became I'm black When I called Gretchen,
I mean, I mean, I'm bat and I'm letting. I
told you I wouldn't. I will sit here and give
you on my shoe if y'all that's all I'm saying.

(17:43):
I'm work. I don't give work with the bullies. Yeah,
called Gretchen. You can't make this up. I mean, but
I feel bad for the cops. Now you can hear
something in that call. Oh I'm being I'm being harassed.
Now we have these this idiotic push not only to

(18:06):
defund and dismantle, but now also to take away cities
and towns from indemnifying police. If in fact, these they
get sued, meaning they can get sued personally, and then
I have to out of their own pocket pay for
their lawyers. It is mathematically impossible on a police officer's

(18:28):
salary to be able to pay for lawyers to the
extent they would need to. Because what's gonna happen is
every criminal is gonna figure out I'll just sue the cop.
Cops that ain't gonna have to hire lawyers. Cops are
gonna stop arresting anybody they're not gonna be able to
do their job. It's how dumb this this all gets anyway,

(18:49):
And you want to know why I mentioned the Census Bureau.
Why all of these this massive migration out of New
York is happening out of California, New Jersey, Illinois. It's
happening because of idiotic policies, high taxation, burdensome regulation on businesses.

(19:12):
It becomes impossible. New York is gonna be a fifteen
percent state income tax, city tax state. So you pay
forty percent when Joe raises your taxes of every every dollar,
you make forty cents out of every dollar than fifteen
cents more to the state and City of New York.
That's fifty five cents highest property taxes in the country

(19:34):
that now you're up to sixty some odd sense and
all the other hidden taxes they have. It's just unbelievable,
you know. It's even by the way, it's interesting on
a side note here Democrats are admitting now that he
had Joe hid who he was during the campaign. I've
been saying this, Nobody's been listening to me. It's the squad,

(19:58):
it's their Green New Deal, Joe pushing it's Nancy Pelosi
pushing Alexandria Cassio Cortes's house. She's the speaker Pelosi, speaker
of name only, and everyone's so definitely afraid of the
squad and Congresswoman A Cassio Cortez, and she says, yeah,

(20:20):
I'm giving Joe a real thumbs up. Here's first hundred
days in office. They've exceeded my expectations and every expectation
that progressives have had. One thing that I will say
is that I do think that by administration in prison
Biden has definitely exceeded expectations that progressives had. You know,

(20:43):
I'll be frank, I think a lot of us expected
a much more conservative administration. Yeah, Congressman McCarthy said, it's
a bait and switch, you know, Yeah, promises of unity
and bipartisanship. That's one big lie house goops, botlights. How
bad this to fund the police target You know who's

(21:05):
gonna get hurt here. If Rudy Giuliani didn't didn't start
stopping frisk and didn't use the vast majority of NYPD
resources targeting areas with the highest crime rates and empowering
the police to do their job, there's no way you

(21:26):
go from nearly three thousand murders every year down to
a few hundred. It took a lot of work, meaning
a lot of lives were saved. Mansion is getting I
don't know, Joe Mansion. I thought he was about to
cave on eliminating the legislative filibuster. He says, I'm not
going to be a part of blowing up the Senate.
That's not happening. Not gonna do it. I hope he

(21:49):
stays where he is. And you know, it's just on
every single solitary issue, everyone's now racist. If you're against
DC statehood, you're racist if support the far more inclusive
Georgia voting law than the state of Delaware, where Joe
has represented Delaware a thousand years and Joe never lifted

(22:10):
a finger. Just one of the most restrictive states in
the country. Actually, as he says, brag my state, it's
a slave state. He said, Okay, Well, they don't have
seventeen days of early in person voting in Delaware. Georgia
does they don't have drop boxes anywhere in Delaware Georgia.
Does they have voter ID laws in Georgia and Delaware?

(22:31):
How does he get to say there's a Jim Crow
two point zero, you oppose that, If you oppose eliminating
the legislative filibuster, you're posted packing the courts if you
oppose DC State and everything's racist now. And by the way,
if you think that the two trillion dollar covert emergency relief,
which was the Blue State bailout down payment on New
Green Deal in reality and truth, and the Infrastructure Bill

(22:55):
which was nothing but New Green Deal spent reckless spending.
Now Joe's proposing another trillion dollars spending package that now
we're up to six trillion to new spending. Wow, you know,
we'll just keep printing money. Let's see how that's gonna work,
you know, while apologizing to America abroad doing nothing about

(23:18):
you know, Putin and his troops now raising the tensions
with Ukraine and saber rattling there, or China's territorial ambitions
on full display in Hong Kong, Taiwan and in the
Pacific building literally their own islands. Now, you know new
Pole Biden's hundred day approval vastly over samples Democrats. You know,

(23:41):
they have Joe at a fifty two approval rating, which
isn't all that good either. By the way, it's the
third lowest one hundred day approval rating for any president,
going back to Harry Truman. But to even get that,
ABC and Washington The Washington Post poll conducted landline in
cellular telephones, which is not the way to do polling
these days anyway. They break it down thirty three percent Democrat,

(24:06):
twenty four percent Republican. Okay, thirty three percent Democrats twenty
four Of course you're gonna get a higher approval rating.
It was a Rasmusin report which was pretty fascinating that, Yeah,
a vast majority say that Kamala Harris is not qualified
to become the president of the United States, and they
have a very they have an unfavorable impression of Harris

(24:31):
and forty three percent very unfavorable. Why does she laugh
at these awkward moments. It's just it's bizarre. Now, Biden
planning to double the capital gains taxes from twenty three
to forty four percent. That's gonna district I'm telling you,
it's this. None of this is gonna be good, These
America last policies of Biden. It's not gonna be good,

(24:54):
you know. The it's just these are going to be
very hard times. Kamala, we should have an assault weapons band. Okay,
Remember she said as a candidate that she thought it
could be done by executive action aoc praising Joe. That's
all you need to know. Chucky Todd is out there.
Biden's approval rating is really it's the new sixty. Huh. Okay,

(25:19):
fifty three percent is their new sixty. Yeah, okay, fuzzy
math anyway, but it's really the lowest approval of any
modern day president, one of the lowest. One disastrous Democratic
welfare program, by the way, is causing a hiring crisis.
McDonald's franchise in Florida is so desperate for workers they

(25:41):
started offering people fifty bucks just to show up to
do to an interview. I wonder if they include a
happy meal for Linda's child, who's been deprived a happy
meal in his life. This poor kid, Uncle Shaun is
going to get him a happy meal, come hell or
high water. I'm gonna figure out how to make that happen.
To mail it to him when you're out of town

(26:02):
or something. You cann't vail him a happy meal. I
don't know what I'm gonna I'm gonna bribe grandma. I'm
gonna I'm gonna get grandma, and Grandma has to agree
with me nine times out of ten. My mother's on
your side anyway, that's correct, because your mother's a very smart,
wonderful woman, you know, yeah, a grandma. Yeah, Linda, you

(26:28):
need to talk to her again. You know, she's not
taking her happy CBD pills. She needs some. Listen. I
just got more of those. They're fantastic. Yeah, okay, great.
It relieves your anxieties and calms you down. But you're
supposed to be coming after a long day with you.
I need, you know, CBD gummies to calm me down.
Thank god, I have BYBD gummies. Somebody sent me a

(26:51):
CBD E sig and I tried it actually wasn't bad.
I ain't even heard of that. Well, I don't know
where they got it. Huh. Talib says Congresswoman Talib. We
cannot be a society that justifies the killing of a child.
I would agree with that, But what she's talking about

(27:12):
is the the the Kayak case that took place last week,
and what happened there is she was about to stab
somebody and she you know, now the cop has to
make a split second decision, and he saved an innocent
girl's life in the process. I'll play later all these

(27:34):
viral videos of cops. Now they're putting it out there.
Hang on, guys, please don't stab each other right now.
Hang on, let me call Lebron James, see what he
thinks I should do. They're all over the place. Eight
hundred nine one. Shaun has our number if you want
to be a part of the program. They oh, oh,
this was interesting. A little side note. Clinton's White House apparently,

(27:55):
remember came out recently that he did fly in the
Lolita Express after lying to us saying he never did.
And apparently the Clinton White House welcome Epstein and just
laying Maxwell as VIP guests, and there are photos of it.
That's pretty interesting watching that. Clarence Thomas called out as

(28:18):
liberal court colleagues for their inconsistent opinions based on and
depending on the issues. In other words, they're not being
governed by judicial philosophy, say of constitutionalism or originalism. They're
basing their decisions based on the political moment of the time,
which is the exact opposite of the role of the court. Anyway,

(28:41):
Liz Cheney apparently is thinking of running for president. I
don't think that's going to end out end up well,
I might want to save your money, not ruling out
running for president. Right hour two Sean Hannity Show. Thanks
for for being with us, toll free. We'll get your
calls in today. Promise eight hundred nine four one sewn
you want to be a part of the program. A

(29:03):
lot of news out there regarding COVID nineteen, therapeutic advancement,
regener on some of these these other monocolonial cocktails as
they call them, and ivermectin and HCQ, which we were told,
oh yeah, and this medical journal and that medical journal

(29:24):
is dangerous. Yeah, then they retracted them so much as
they've gotten wrong. Let's go back a year ago March
and the great doctor Fauci's advice on masks. Now in
the United States, people should not be walking around with masks.
You're sure of it, because people are listening really no
closely to this right now. People should not be working.

(29:46):
There's no reason to be walking around with a mask.
That led, of course to a radical shift and change
and even getting to the point, you know, people being
chased around stores and ratted out by the mask fullies,
if there was a moment that they didn't have their
mask on, or if a one or two year old
was traveling on an airplane, parents getting kicked off if

(30:07):
they couldn't keep the mask on the poor kid that's
you know, didn't want to put the mask on. And
then it's like one mask, then two masks, and you know,
then recently saying that even if you have been vaccinated,
you still got to wear the mask, and you have
to wear the mask even outside you have to wear
the mask. I'm like, okay, can we get one clearer opinion?
Can they get it? Can they get anything in this

(30:29):
process right, because they've screwed up a lot and hasn't
particularly been helpful. Now Fauci hinting the CDC may ease
restrictions on outdoor masking. Yeah, you know, Jim, I don't
want to come out ahead of a CDC announcement, but
as you hinted yourself just now a moment ago, that
very soon, eminently, in the next few days, very likely

(30:50):
the CDC will be coming out with updating their guidelines
of what people who are vaccinated can do, and even
some who are not vaccinated. In certainly what one can
do outdoors visa V mask is going to be one
of those recommendations. So stay tuned. That's coming soon, all right,
And if you don't mind, I'll press a little bit.

(31:10):
I know you don't want to get ahead of these guidelines,
but I assume airports, travel that sort of thing that'll
be coming up as well well, sooner or later. I
don't know if it's all going to be coming out
at once. I mean, the one thing for sure is
the thing that's on a lot of people's minds is
what about outdoors because obviously a lot of people are

(31:30):
going to be sending a lot of time more outdoors
now because the weather is getting really nice, beautiful spring.
Whether you're going to be seeing people wanted to do
things outdoors without masks, and it's common sense to know
that the risk when you are outdoors, which we have
been saying all along, is extremely low. It flip, the flop,
the flail, it's everywhere. Now there's an m I T.

(31:54):
We have some researchers there. They found that the widely
use six foot rules feet apart indoors does almost nothing
to stop the spread of COVID nineteen. According to this
z MIT study fully open Texas in Florida. Yeah, how
is it that kids have been in school in Florida
since last August? New York City public school kids five

(32:17):
and eighty two thousand students still are not experiencing any
any inside education. It's all over zoom schooling and home schooling, etc.
Dana White lashed out at the mob in the media
for calling you know, the event of Oh man, if
you missed the fights this weekend, who I was crazy? Um, anyway,

(32:39):
we'll get to that later, saying to basically go blank yourself.
And but they just they can't seem to get anything right.
And the now the Johnson and Johnson vaccine is back
online with the warning about potential blood clotting for women
eighteen forty eight after the sixth I think it might

(33:03):
be up to eight cases now, where they had one
one mortality OSCAR attendees not wearing their masks, not that
anyone was watching anyway, they lost fifth over fifty percent
of their ratings from last year's disaster. And you know,
to me, it's you know, as I've been I've been
really trying to tell people on this program that I'm
not a doctor. But We've been sharing important health information regularly,

(33:26):
including some conflicting information, because the science and the scientists
and the great doctor Fauci keep changing their minds every
other day. But as far as I'm concerned, I want
you to study on your own. I want you know,
we've urged people. Okay, if they once they said wear
masks and be careful around older people, those with pre

(33:48):
existing conditions and compromised immune systems. Okay, if that's going
to say Grandma and grandpa, I'm not against it. I'm
pro science in every way, but I urge all of
you to seek out as many medical opinions as possible.
And we put people on this program I agree with
and somebody have some disagreement with, and I urge you know,

(34:12):
I'm not the doctor. I don't know your individual medical conditions.
But if you study on your own, and you read
the science and the medical opinions of as many people
as possible regarding therapeutics, the three vaccines available, then consult
with your own doctor, doctors, people you trust in the

(34:33):
medical profession, then make the best informed health decision for
you based on your unique medical condition. I'm a firm
believer in medical the right to medical privacy as well. Anyway,
doctor George Farid is back with us, doctor Brian Tyson,
and these are two guys that have been on the
front lines of COVID. Welcome doctor Farred, Welcome doctor Tyson.

(34:56):
Doctor Fred. How many people have you treated as it
relates to COVID, Well, thank you, Sean, thank you for
having me along with Brian Tyson. We I've treated over
eight hundred from in our area and then throughout the country.
And I continually get contacted by people who can't get
early treatment in their local and setting, which is really tragic.

(35:21):
And it all stems back to the colossal failure to
prioritize for early treatment fourteen months ago, thirteen months ago,
and the colossal failure. And I don't know if it's
dishonesty or something else, but for Fauci and others not
to recognize the efficacy of hydroxychloric when and certainly now

(35:44):
ivermectin with ivermectin and hydroxy cleric when together being an
extraordinarily effective early treatment. And so it's just heartbreaking. I
realized eight hundred, that's a good number. I wish I
could have treated eight And Brian gets great credit for

(36:05):
what he's done in his urgent care clinic, which should
have been the model and it should still should be
around our country for bringing in patients and getting them
on treatment if they're diagnosed. We have to address sick
patients now, masks and vaccines are always secondary, and the
sick people come first, and we have to continue to

(36:28):
prevent hospitalizations. But our treatment remains very effective for the
new variants, the contagious variants. And there's so many stories
I could recount, and I O'Brien can of the success
and the gratitude that patients have when they recover and
they're not in fear. But I could tell you doctor

(36:50):
Freed that in New York, in New York that basically
unless your oxygen goes below ninety, you're not getting admitted
to a hospital. Most people I know in New York
they actually get no treatment except your well, you know,
cause if you have a fever and and if your
oxygen level drops below ninety and then go to a hospital. Now,

(37:11):
usually the pattern has been respiratory problems start kicking at
what a day six and seven. You're you've been saying
that if you started on day one of your diagnosis,
that you would be much better off. Oh absolutely, but
even later it turns it around. We've had many examples

(37:31):
where they're into it ten to twelve, ten days, then
they're starting to get respiratory difficulty, and then they will
benefit from this this combination plus adding in as doctor
McCullough is described and as Brian speak because he's been
a lifesaver in this area. But you can add in
the monoclonel is certainly with the ro agents, and then

(37:55):
adding the cortical steroids and coaches seen in other and
inhale buds and they they will go through a really
rapid recovery even later. So that's that should be hammered
home and the mainstream media. I just talked to someone
on the street that was interested in what I was doing,
and he said he'd heard, he'd watch CNN. He'd never

(38:15):
heard anything of this. He said, oh, you're using remdeseviere
and I showed him that absolutely not. We don't want
them to have to get REMD severe. But anyway, it's
it's just it's getting too much, Sean, and I please,
Brian let me know, or you want to you want
to add to a doctor Varia saying thank you for

(38:36):
joining us. John. You know, we we've we've seen over
four thousand, eight hundred, almost forty nine hundred positive patients.
We have a one hundred percent success rate with anybody
who presents with symptoms in the first five days. We
have a ninety percent reduction mortality with anyone who's presented
after five days. Um, so the treatment definitely works. We've

(38:57):
been we've been using it since since the day one,
like doctor Freed said, and the success is unwavering. I mean,
there's just there's there's no doubt on my mind. And
then you know, you talked about the masks, right, these
masks and things and the problems that we're seeing with this.
What's what's interesting is Stanford did a study back in
November that got buried and the link has actually been

(39:18):
banned on a lot of the social media sites. They
looked at over four hundred thousand patients retrospectively and the
data quote the data suggest that both medical and non
medical face masks are ineffective to block human to human
transmission of viral and infectious diseases such as stars COVID
two supporting against the uses of face masks that's published

(39:41):
on the NIH dot gov website, but they've buried the
link so that you can't share it on social media.
It's one of the biggest lies that we've seen across America.
Like you said, it's a flip flop, and it's not
about science anymore. It's about control. And as we continue,
doctor George fred and doctor Brian Tyson are with us.

(40:05):
I've heard from more than a number of doctors that
Regeneron in particular has been tremendously effective at helping people
that have maybe brought had some of the more the
more or most severe symptoms, dramatic stories of turnaround, including
doctor Benjamin Carson. And we know it worked on President

(40:27):
Trump and I know other people that have had it
as well. And have you found the same results, doctor Tyson,
I'll ask you first. Yeah, So we use a combination
and this is where the whole there's no outpatient treatment
for COVID. I just can't believe it, because Regeneron is
an outpatient treatment. We've given it to our high risk
patients diabetes, morbid obesity. Anyone over the age of fifty five,

(40:52):
if you've got two or more commabilities, you qualify for Regeneron.
We send into the hospital, they get their treatment, and
then we also put them on our triple cocktail and
we've seen dramatic turns around in two to three days.
People with oxygen saturations as low as ninety percent have
turned around to ninety eight percent within twenty four hours.

(41:13):
It's being completely disregarded in replacement of these quote so
called vaccines. And what's interesting that we've seen in our
clinic recently, and I can tell you that doctor Peter
McCall has verified this as well, is in new cases.
We're seeing more new cases of COVID post vaccine than

(41:33):
we are seeing people who have not been vaccinated getting COVID.
What seems to be the issue is the COVID vaccine
seems to drop the people's immune system and during that
two to three week period they're being more susceptible to
actually getting the infection, and those are the patients who
are testing positive. We're seeing probably forty to fifty percent

(41:55):
of our COVID patients have already had either one or
two of their vaccines. Wow, I mean, it's just kind
of it's mind numbing to me. Doctor Free you want
to add to that, well, yeah, I would just say
that the monoclonal antibodies are a tremendous add on to
the patient therapy. As Brian has stated, the combination with

(42:18):
the ivymect and HCQ oral treatments makes it one hundred
percent success. But they're very underutilized. The government pays paid
these companies lily and we're generating eight hundred million dollars
or more, and they make the treatment available free. Patients
pay for the infusion cost. But regardless of the seventy

(42:42):
five are not used around the country. So people are
that I get contacted, they are not easily accessing it,
and so they go on our protocol and they do
very well. But it's it's also an issue of the
dispensing of this medica. Of these monoclone untibodies are the

(43:04):
access that hasn't been set up really suitably in my opinion.
But the fact that you know, we have all of
this with the track record that you both are describing,
and there's very little discussion about it. I'm not saying
people have to do it, but at least I can
tell you from my own experience that when I hear

(43:24):
people have it, and I mentioned these options that both
of you have been using, you know it's they've never
heard of it. Let me ask you one last question
on the other side of this break, if you can
stay with us just a minute longer, and it's more
about kids, and then we'll get to everybody's calls. Eight
hundred nine four one, Shauna is our number. If you

(43:45):
want to be a part of the program, Oh ma'am.
The tanking of the Oscars, the Academy Awards, it's unbelievable.
We'll get to that, Joe Concha and Louis Gohmert and
your calls eight hundred nine four one Shaun as we
continue h twenty five to the top of the eight
hundred and nine four one Sean, you want to be
a part of the program. One last question. I wanted

(44:05):
to get this in with doctor George Free, doctor Brian Tyson.
These both these guys have bothen on the front lines
of COVID. Doctor Fauci is not. They're out there, They're
dealing with real patients every day in the case of
you know, five thousand between them, over five thousand people,
and they come up with early treatment protocols that many

(44:26):
many states are not using at all. And you can
see the difference in a state like Florida, in Texas,
and then compare it to New York, New Jersey, California, Michigan.
Michigan's an unmitigated disaster with these variants now. And you know,
and of course a governor that says do what I say,
not what I do, and travels to Florida and her

(44:48):
husband's taken his boat out. But that's a separate issue
for a second day. This video has gone viral now.
For example, in Florida, kids have been in school since
last August. In New York City is still over nearly
six hundred thousand that have never been to school. This
Georgia mom frustrated blasting the school board in this one

(45:10):
particular case for the fact that they're kids that have
not had the problems of older people or people with
pre existing conditions or compromised immune systems or comorbidities, and
blasting them these kids and stuck in masks all day
and the impact that's having on them. Listen, every month
I come here and I hear the same thing social

(45:32):
emotional health. If you truly mean that, you would end
the mask requirement tonight. But it's April fifteenth, two twenty one,
and it's time take these masks off of my child.
And I know what I'm going to be met with.
But miss Taylor, the CDC, we did not vote for

(45:55):
people at the CDC. We did elect leaders who do
create policy. We elected the five of you. We chose
you to make difficult decisions for our children. We chose
you to make decisions that would be in our children's
best interest. In forcing five, six, seven, eight, and nine
year old little children to cover their noses in their
mouths where they breathe for seven hours a day, every

(46:16):
day for the last nine months for a virus that
you know doesn't affect them, that is not in their
best interest. And this has to stop. Defend our children.
My six year old can't come up here and say this.
It has to stop. Take these off of our children,
we continued, Doctor George Free, Doctor Brian Tyson, Doctor Tyson,

(46:37):
why don't we give you a first crack at that
young people. Although there was a story this weekend about
one of these variants emerging that is impacting people in
their thirties, not young kids in school. And I'm wondering
if you're concerned about the age difference, the shift that
we had not really been seeing in real numbers up

(46:58):
until just recently the variant. Yeah, so a couple of things.
I mean, you know, Number one, I have small kids
at home as well, and my six year old had
COVID nineteen. He had symptoms for about twelve hours and
that's about all. So the first thing we do know
is masking children is not healthy, both for their physical

(47:19):
health and both for their emotional health. Doctor Mark McDonald,
who's an adolescent psychiatrist that I spent the weekend over
this pass with, he's got great arguments on how the
emotional distress that this is creating amongst kids who look
for facial recognition. They look for reassurance from mom and

(47:42):
dad and from those around them that what they're doing
is correct versus what they're not doing being correct. And
with no facial expressions, they're not understanding what is good
behavior and what's bad behavior. So that's on the emotional side.
On the physical side, these masks are acting like fullmites.
It's no different than the doctor who wore his white

(48:02):
coat around rounds and never washed it. These kids don't
wash their masks all day long. They're in them. They
get moisture, they get dirt, they get bacteria, and they're
they're expected to wear them for six to eight hours
a day. What we're seeing in our clinic is an
increase in strepped cases with these kids. We're seeing increases
in bacterial pneumonia in these kids, and we're not seeing

(48:27):
any reduction or any really infection of COVID nineteen. Believe
it or not. Most of these kids who are getting
sick right now are getting coronavirus NL sixty three, which
is just a normal variant of the common cold. So
I hear variants with coronavirus, and I've always questioned this

(48:47):
a variant. Is it a variant of coronavirus nineteen or
is it a variant of the seven other coronaviruses that
we see every day. We're also seeing eat coli peaks
in the young kids as well, and I believe that
that has to do with a fecal oral transmission because
they're wearing these masks all day long, every day. Your

(49:09):
last thought, doctor free will give you the last word today. Well,
that's well stated by Brian, and that's exactly my feeling.
I agree with the Ladies of Speech and Georgia fully
and that what we need to do is focus on
early treatment, getting these sick, younger people on the treatment.

(49:29):
It's very effective against the variance. We want to prevent
the long COVID syndrome. We want to treat knock that
virus out. And that's what Fauci missed. And I'll never
forgiven for that, and I'll never forgive that task force
for what they inflicted on the world actually and not
just the United States. But we still have to battle.
We have five hundred thousand or more deaths that shouldn't

(49:52):
have happened, and we're getting more. And so we can
treat young kids if they become very symptomatic. The medicines
are very safe for them, and the masks and vaccines
are secondary. Well. I really appreciate you both being with us,
and I urge everybody to read a wide variety of

(50:15):
opinions and get the best the people I personally love
the people that are on the front lines actually dealing
with it. I don't like when I hear from people
and they tell me, yeah, they said, if it gets
bad and then call me. You know, you don't get
admitted to the hospital until your oxygen level, until you're
in deep distress. And I think that a lot of
the therapeutics have been underutilized, starting with regeneron mono colonial cocktails,

(50:42):
and I've remected and all these other things that both
of you have have mentioned. We appreciate you both being
with us though, Doctor Farid, thank you, Doctor Tyson, thank you,
Thank you. Sean, appreciate it. All right, eight hundred nine
for one, Seawan our number. All Right, We're gonna go
to uh Sandy's in Nevada. Hey, Sandy, how are you
glad you called? I think Sean, I just so appreciate

(51:05):
you taking my call. I love that you've been staying
up on the latest and bringing doctors that are on
the forefront and encouraging us to study, which is what
I've done since I had COVID about eight months ago.
And I have a doctor that I've consulted with, well,
he's my doctor. I see him and he agrees that

(51:26):
for me it would not be good to get the vaccine.
And so I loved the last time doctor Fleid and
doctor Tysum are on your call or on your show,
they recommend it for people that had I think it
was doctor Farid in particular, that had already survived COVID
that their immune system is the best defense, and already

(51:49):
having gone through it, and I've read studies about this,
that our T cells are different. They're trained to be
able to attack even a variant of COVID IT and
so I do not want to get the shot, the
experimental shot. Yet I wondered, I wanted to know from
them what they're recommending to their patients who maybe, like I,

(52:14):
have been harassed to get the shot and even threatened.
I mean, the threat is the passport and that I
may not be able to travel and my life may
be over. As I know, I'm worried about medical privacy
like you do. I can tell you this. Probably both
these doctors are going to kill me for saying this,
but I do know that they are taking calls from

(52:34):
people all over the country. If you want to, you know,
consult with them, and I do urge people to. You're
absolutely right. For example, if you recently had COVID, it's
very high likelihood that you're antibody count level is going
to be very high, and over time that will begin
to decline and maybe even be negligible. But the T

(52:57):
cell an a body memory mainz. As I understand it,
I'm speaking of layman terms here. I'm not a doctor,
but and I've talked to a lot of people like
you're right. We discussed that with doctor Freed in a
previous point. The saddest thing about all of this listening
to them, to me is what doctor Ross said when
we were having him on regularly, and that is when

(53:19):
politics and medicine intersect, politics always wins, and we've seen
that you can't even bring up Okay, well, this is
a possible answer, this is a possible answer. This is
a possible answer. You know, it's not that you fight
with the army you wish you had at during a pandemic.
You fight, you fight with the army that you do have.

(53:40):
And there was such an unwillingness, you know, the number
one premier expert on hydroxy chloric when, for example, doctor
Daniel Wallace, I mean it's been peer reviewed two hundred
and fifty papers or so, number one guy on rhumatoid
arthritis and lupus and he's anti malarial drugs said the

(54:02):
risk is nil. Okay, when they got when the top
guy that's been dispensing something for forty years without a
single complication to thousands and thousands and thousands of people.
You know, at that point, what have you got to
lose to in my point of view, And nobody wanted
to hear it. And then and the two studies that

(54:24):
went out in these medical journals were very harmful. They
had to be rescinded. I mean, these are prestigious medical
journals that had to pull back these early phony studies
from people that had a political agenda. Sad, but you
know what, But may you know these doctors I do
know spend time and they take calls from people around

(54:46):
the country, and they've helped a lot of different people,
even people that I know. And I think that, yes,
I think hearing a variety of medical opinions and making
a personal medical choice based on your very unique medical
condition has got to be based on knowledge and medical consultation.
I'm not a doctor. I can't tell everybody what to

(55:08):
do here I could. I mean, it seems like everybody
wants to know what's Hannity's opinion on this. I'm not
doctor Hannity. I mean, we used to do a segment
called doctor Hannity about relationships. But I'm not a doctor.
But we seek out on this program a variety of
viewpoints so that you can make up your make your

(55:28):
own informed decision, and you know, it's amazing. I get
criticized for it, but sounds like you're on the right track, Sandy. Okay, thanks,
doctor Sean. And the something that doctor Tyson said that
I really appreciated was that the drop in immune system
immune function after the vaccine is what they're seeing and

(55:51):
people then subsequently getting COVID who might not have had
they not had the vaccine. That I think that's what
I'm concerned about for me, is it it will drop
my immune system so that that T cell function that
I am so excited that I have now I may
have and it may make me more susceptible. What I
like about what I'm hearing from you is you've read

(56:12):
a lot, and it's obvious. Keep reading, keep talking to professionals,
get a variety of views, and then make your informed
decision based on your consultation with your doctor, based on
your unique medical condition. Okay, okay, thanks. The best advice
I can give. I'm trying to be responsible here. I

(56:34):
want I don't want to lose one person in this
audience ever. And this is a smart audience that listens
to talk radio right fact to our busy telephones. Russ
is in New York. What's up, Russ? How are you, sir? Afternoon, Sean,
and thank you so much for taking my call. I
appreciate everything that you do for America. Thank you. What's
going on? I was curious, with all the nonsense from

(56:58):
our current administration and Sleepy Joe and Chameleon Harris, whether
the Biden corruption and Hunter Biden laptop situation has gone
to a complete stop and anything new with John Durham,
who was you know, entrusted to do the right thing
for this country, and we don't hear it people. I

(57:19):
sadly now at this point in my life, have had
to conclude the something I never thought I'd have to
say is that we don't have any equal justice under
the law, equal application of our laws. And the short
answer is is that I've been briefed by people who

(57:40):
have have have currently the Hunter Biden laptop, have been
briefed on it. If it were anybody with the last
name Trump, all of the things that have not been
disclosed publicly would be disclosed. And the double standard the
same with Durham. I don't know what Durham is doing.
We do know that even the Inspector General report on

(58:03):
Harowitz talked. They were numerous referrals in that Inspector General's report.
We now know that Komey, Yates and even Rod Rosenstein others,
knowing what we know now, No, we never would have
signed the FISA warrant. Now we know that they knew
very early that Steele even told them themselves that they

(58:25):
heard it directly from him, that it wasn't verified, but
they continued to use it as the bulk of information
to spy on a president. Sad. I don't know what
else to tell you. You know, if you're a conservative,
spit on the sidewalk Jay walk arrested twenty years in jail.
You're a liberal, you get away with everything. Appreciate the
call eight hundred nine four one Sean. Stay right here

(58:46):
for our final news round up and Information Overload I
News round up in Information overload our eight hundred nine
four one sewn. You want to be a part of
the program. So I did not watch any of the
oscars last night, and looking at the aftermath, that's an
unmitigated disaster. I mean, they literally went from twenty twenty

(59:08):
and eighteen point one share thirty three in the demo
to eight point nine. I mean that it is a disaster. Now.
There was last week a producer of last year's Oscars,
speaking on the condition of anonymity, telling The New York
Times that minute by minute ratings post show. Their analysis

(59:32):
on ratings indicated that vast numbers of people were turning
off their television whenever these celebrities began opining on politics. Well,
from what I hear and all that I've read, apparently
that is happened last night. It was actually a list

(59:52):
on Breitbart of the eleven woke rants at the Oscars.
And you know, listen, you know what, I just don't
have any interest in these people. I don't care what
they say. I don't care what their opinions are. I
have no interest at all what they have to say.
Another thing, if you're paying attention to social media, it'll

(01:00:13):
be interesting to see how the big tech companies respond
to this. But they're what appears to be real cops.
Brust is an in squad cars that they are making
these fake calls and these videos. There's so many of
them that have been sent to me over the weekend.

(01:00:34):
I'll play one of them for you where it actually
they act. They act like, oh, there's about to be
a stabbing and they're calling Lebron James for advice considering
what he did last week. Listen to one of these
seventeen dispension arrived at that disturbance we have, Lebron called
myself phone right away. Please thank you. Excuse me, sir,

(01:00:54):
excuse me? No, can you put the knife down? Please? Sir? No, no, no, sir,
don't stab it? No, no, stop, hold on, hold on,
it's Lebron, Lebron. Hey, yeah, it's me again. Listen, I'm
out here at this disturbance call and there's a guy
trying to stab another guy with a knife. What do
you think I should do? Why does that matter? Okay,
well they're both black. One guy's trying to stab another

(01:01:16):
guy with a knife deadly force is completely justified. Uh huh.
I see, So you don't care if a black person
kills another black person, but you do care if a
white top kills a black person, even if he's doing
it to save the life of another black person. I mean,
it doesn't make a whole lot of sense. But then again,
you are really good at basketball, so I guess I'll
take your word for it, all right, yep, okay, all right,

(01:01:39):
thanks Lebron. Michael Jordan's the goat what nothing, I gotta go. Sorry, guys,
you're on your own. Good luck. I mean it's sad
because his cop last week in Ohio save the life
of an innocent girl that was unarmed, pinned to a
car as a knife was about to be thrust into
her by the assailant. And of course then Lebron James

(01:02:03):
made his comments anyway, joining us now is Joe Concha
to talk about, Well, first, all things media, mob and
big tech, and we appreciate you being back with us,
Joe Concha. Pretty amazing to me. The oscars fifty eight
percent decline, that is, you don't see that kind of decline.

(01:02:23):
You want to hear some numbers, John, You know I
love my numbers. And when you look back just nineteen
ninety eight, okay, not too long ago, cable are obviously,
and fifty seven million people tuned in to that broadcast
that's only had an actual host in Billy Crystal right
and Titanic is a big movie that year, even seven

(01:02:43):
years ago in twenty fourteen, forty million people tuned in
last night. They could even get ten million people to
tune in. So think about that forty seven million people
gone didn't watch, compared to ninety eight thirty million gone
compared to just seven years ago, when there are all
these options in terms of all the cable channels and

(01:03:04):
streaming and so on. So think about that for a moment.
That's how much this is getting rejected. Because this was
a seeming pile of a hot mess and a dumpster fire.
It wasn't funny, it was humorless. Most of the country
is predisposition that they're going to be lecture too, so
they didn't even bother tuning in the first place, and
then they couldn't even organize it right when they give
out best Actors to the great Anthony Hopkins, he's not

(01:03:25):
even there to give a speech. Show nothing went right
and they got what they deserved in terms of this horrible,
horrible audience. That this used to be the most watch
show after the Super Bowl. Now it couldn't even get
ten million people. It's just comical at this point, except
there was nothing comical that last sight. It was sad,
pious and depressing. You know, it is unbelievable. This is

(01:03:47):
an unmitigated disaster. I wonder if the golden error of
Hollywood now has finally come to an end, if all
of these varying platforms combined have now watered down the
effect of, you know, creating the big Hollywood star, you know,
the Tom Cruise. You know, I'll go back to the

(01:04:09):
old days, the jajermy shirt or Mary Murray, you know
those days and Carrie granted, all these great actors and actresses.
I wonder if that's I wonder if that error is
now completely over because you got Netflix, you got Prime, Amazon,
you got Hulu, You've got you know, on demand everything.

(01:04:30):
So I'm just wondering you think this is the end?
I mean, for example, I'm watching a series now called
Kingdom because I'm into mixed martial arts. And by the way,
did you watch this weekend's fights? No, I didn't get
to see him. Unfortunately. I actually had like a date
night with my wife, which is something we haven't done
it in a while. So I was actually out in
a restaurant. It was incredible. But Chris widemand I'll probably

(01:04:54):
show the video. So he makes a kick on his opponent,
and interestingly this it happened to him years ago. But anyway,
he snapped into his tibbin fib and it's just, oh,
it's so brutal to watch Man. And these are kicks
that I practice every day. It's funny, but I mean
it's not funny. It's like harsh. It's like the humanity

(01:05:16):
side of it is just awful. Yeah, I think we've
stumbled onto a good analogy here when you say, you know,
do you think it's dead now for big Hollywood? Will
they ever had that big, glamorous night again when thirty
forty fifty million people are tuning in? No? And I
you made me think it's kind of like heavyweight boxing,
right where you would have a heavyweight fight and you
stopped everything that you're doing. Right when I was growing up,

(01:05:37):
it was more like you know, Tyson holy Field or
if you want to go back to you know, more
of my dad's ered Ali or Frazier. And now you think, wow,
what was the last time I even watched a heavyweight fight?
And I think that's kind of like Hollywood now at
this point, it's lost its appointment viewing aspect, because again,
the movies are just so politically correct and they have
to have diversity, and if they don't have diversity, and

(01:05:58):
they won't even get nominated when it just was give
me a good movie. I don't care who's in a black,
white Asian. You give me a great movie, I'll watch it.
I'm not thinking about quotas. And I think people are
now rejecting it because the movies are trying to be
too cute by half, by doing all these types of
films that are politically correct instead of compelling. Yeah, I
mean it's it's pretty unbelievable. Where do you think this
ultimately ends up here? I mean, are we gonna have

(01:06:22):
the release of movies now on demand and a movie
theater is going to be a thing of the past. Look,
when I was young, growing up and a little older
than you, Joe Contra, But I mean my family used
to go to drive in movie theaters. I loved it.
I thought it was the coolest thing ever. You know,
you pack the car, you put on the little speaker
inside the car, and you watch the movie as a family.

(01:06:43):
Usually I fell asleep. But those days are pretty much gone.
There's a couple of drive in theaters that remain more
of a novel novelty than anything else. Do you think
movie theaters now are going to be a thing of
the past and everything's going to be released and you
can just watch it at home. I think it's a
lot like what we see in sports and attendance dropping

(01:07:04):
a bit in the Obviously, I'm not talking about, you know,
a pandemic here, but let's go like back the twenty nineteen,
where people are like, you know what, I could spend
hundreds of dollars to sit in traffic and go to
a game, and it's a nice experience, and maybe I
don't want season tickets where I do that every night
because at home I had this immersive experience. Now I
was looking at I'm getting my basement readne I had
a flood. It's a very long story, but I was
looking at TV's and I'm like, what's a sixty five

(01:07:25):
inch TV go for? These days? I was finding keyds
and sixty five inches. I don't know. No, they're very inexpensive.
I'm stupid enough I buy them when they first come out.
Then they go down, they drop in price by eighty percent.
One keyword REFERB. So I always go for the referb.
I don't care if it's like a little bit used
or whatever, that's fine. But the point is that I
have that movie theater experience with sports or with movies

(01:07:46):
now at home. I know it's not a big, big screen,
but I got surround sound. And if you're watching something
on a sixty five seventy five eighty five inch screen
in your living room, then wow, that's a lot cheaper,
it's a lot more convenient. You get a lot of
your life back. And that I've got an eighty five
inch my house and I'm gonna go to one hundred now,
I mean, I love it. What did you think? I
couldn't believe when I read this Oscars for two hundred

(01:08:09):
and five thousand dollars gift bag, you know, swag as
they call it, including a light pas suction, a spa retreat,
three night trip to a secluded Swedish island. And by
the way, I didn't see the mask wearing so much
last night, did you? No? I thawt interviews where people
who are like two inches from each other, you know,
And then I turned on CNN and I see the

(01:08:31):
Vice president Kamala Harris getting interviewed by Dana Bash and
they're like fifteen feet apart, even though they're both back.
I know. Now my favorite was as that Joe Biden
doing the zoom call with world leaders, and he's the
only one. He's in his own office, he's alone as
he brought people in to write them notes to how
to respond, which but probably is a distinct possibility, or

(01:08:55):
if he even knew what day it was, somebody who's
there to remind him. But he's the only world leader
wearing the mask on a zoom call. That's the thing.
And even you say, well, maybe there are people around
and were in vaccinating. You think there's anybody hear the
president of the United States that hasn't been vaccinated this pointment.
Were in half the country already has been. But yeah,
if you work there, I'm pretty sure you're prioritized in
terms of getting this vaccinaton you probably when I went

(01:09:15):
to interview the president then President Trump, I needed a picture.
I d first to get into the White House, to
get into whatever the event wherever we were doing the interview.
That was number one, number two. First thing before you
can even get around the president, you got your rapid
COVID test, right And and that's the thing. I think

(01:09:36):
this administration knows that COVID helped them win the White House.
If there's no pandemic. That Donald Trump wins quite easily
because you had a roaring economy and or at peace.
Right when you have those two things going for you
and you have a candidates as Biden was, yea, he
was going to win quite easily. But now they know
that COVID is kind of like their lifeline, like this
helped us get in and we got to have this
thing go on as long as possible. So he's wearing

(01:09:57):
it on Zoom called Kamala Harris is saying, I'd go
to Guatemala and Honduras in Mexico, but I can't right
now because the COVID district get restrictions. Well wall, wait
a minute, how does that work. You're fully vaccinated, your
staff is fully vaccinated, and you're using COVID now as
an excuse not to fix the problem at the border
when you know that's no excuse whatsoever. Yet she traveled
to something like what ten states in the past month,

(01:10:18):
but you can't go to Texas because of COVID. So
it's convenient. It's an excuse for this administration, and they'll
wear that mask. You saw the president National Cemetery at
Arlington and he's wearing a mask and there's not anybody
within a thousand feet of him, and he knows those
pictures are going to go all over the country and
people are probably wondering, wait, if you took the vaccine,
then why are you masked outside alone? That actually is

(01:10:42):
what leads to vaccine hesitancy. So this is the administration
obviously is multinus for all they can, but I think
people are set up with it now. I think they're
starting to see what a ruse the whole mask wearing
thing after your VACA. One of the things that I
think athletes have missed about sports and bringing politics into
the NFL or the NBA or MLB, like they did

(01:11:03):
in ripping unfairly away the All Star Game from Georgia,
when in fact it is far more restrictive in terms
of voting laws in Joe's Delaware, where he has represented
the state of Delaware five hundred and ninety five years
and never once lifted a finger to make it less restrictive.

(01:11:24):
So much so much easier and convenient for everybody in
Georgia to vote than in Delaware. But when athletes get
involved politically, I don't care if it's Kaepernick taken a
knee or the comments last week or Lebron James. The
one thing if you if you attend sporting events as
I have throughout my life, and I love them, I

(01:11:46):
love them less now because of politics being injected into sports.
And you have people of all backgrounds, all races coming
together and they and there's there's a bond there are
they're all fans of the same team, and there's a
natural there's a moment where people are together and then

(01:12:09):
not asking people what the politics are. And I find
when I go to sports, I go there for entertainment,
entertainment from the Latin to be distracted. I want to
be distracted. I don't if I wanted politics, I wouldn't
be at the ball game. And I do believe that
the net effect of this is they're going to alienate
more and more people. And I'm not talking about an

(01:12:30):
organized boycott, but I'm far less interested in sports now
as a result of all the politics brought into it.
That's the thing. I mean. I live in New Jersey.
It's a blue state, and my friends are all over
the political spectrum right, and the ones that don't get
along with me in terms of my perspective on X
y Z politically, we just don't talk about it. But

(01:12:51):
we'll talk about sports. That's always the commonality. And I
might be looking across the table at this one individual
who I know is a far left of Bernie Sanders,
but we can talk about fantasy football and not just
a beat. So yes, the escapeism that we keep losing everywhere,
not just with sports, but look at late night comedy
if you want to call that these days, right, I
hear Seth Myers in and Stephen Colbert arguing why we

(01:13:15):
need to blow up the filibuster. I'm like, oh wow,
this is like Dean Martin, this is Carson, this is hilarious.
I totally get it. No, I don't. Actually, if I
want it that's about race and talk about politics, I'll
watch to get in. But I'm not going to do
that either, obviously. So yeah, that that's we've lost escape
as an everywhere, late night comedy, sports, you name it.
We can't escape it anymore. Woke is everywhere. But when

(01:13:35):
you go walk, you go pro All right, Joe Concha,
thanks so much for being with us, Fox News contributor
media columnist for The Hill, eight hundred and nine poll
one Shawn our number. We'll get to your calls when
we come back twenty five to the top of the hour,
eight hundred and nine four one sewn. If you want
to be a part of the program. I went through
this last week on the program. It doesn't matter what

(01:13:57):
the issue is. George's voting law far more inclusive than
the state of Delaware. Seventeen days you have early in
person voting Delaware, Joe's state of that he's represented five
hundred and ninety eight years. You get zero dropboxes every

(01:14:18):
precinct in Georgia. In Delaware zero You need to give
an excuse to even get an absentee ballot. Not the
case in Georgia. Both states require voter ID. But if
you pose that, if you pose the Green New Deal,
if you pose court packing, if you oppose ending the
legislative filibuster, if you oppose DC statehood, it's all racist.

(01:14:42):
This has now gone way beyond every two years four
years typical Democratic election year playbook. Republicans are racist, sexist, misogynist, homophobic, xenophobic,
is lomophobic, now transphobic. They want dirty air and water,
and some Republican wants to take Grandma Grandpa in a wheelchair,
feed them dog food, cat food, and then throw them

(01:15:04):
over a cliff list of Demander Jones calling Republicans racist
if they opposed DC statehood. I have had enough of
my colleague's racist insinuations that somehow the people of Washington,
DC are incapable or even unworthy of our democracy. One

(01:15:24):
Senate Republican said that DC wouldn't be a quote well rounded,
working class state. I had no idea. There were so
many syllables in the word white. One of my House
Republican colleagues said that DC shouldn't be a state because
the district doesn't have a landfill. My goodness, with all
the racist trash my colleagues have brought to this debate,

(01:15:45):
I can see why they're worried about having a place
to put it. Wow, then you have Nancy Pelosi. Listened
to her talking about passage of DC statehood. Now very
different situation in the center, but does what she said.
I rise, as Speaker of the House to join my
colleagues on this momentous day for American democracy as we

(01:16:09):
write an historic injustice by passing legislation to finally great
grant Washington d C statehood, statehood for the District of
Columbia is about showing respect for our democracy, for the
American people, and for our constitution. That constitution begins with

(01:16:30):
our preamble, we the people, setting out our founder's vision
of a government of by and for the people, by
and for the people. Here to give a quick response
is our friend, Congressman Louis Gohmer to the great State
of Texas. Louie recently, by the way, lost his dad,
who he loved very much. And sorry about your paying

(01:16:51):
my friend. I know at the end of March, March
thirty first was twenty five years ago. I lost my
dad and I never never day passes. I don't think
about him exactly, and that's that'll be my situation twenty
five years from now too. And thank you for Sean.
You're a true friend. I appreciate it. One of the heart.

(01:17:12):
It doesn't matter how old you are when you lose
a parent, it doesn't matter. It hurts. It hurts like
hell it does. Yep, it does. He's a good man.
I wish that's what we had all over Congress, and
that's not the case. Unbelievable the way they toss around
the term racist. You know, we were told that if

(01:17:34):
you didn't support DC becoming a state. You were not
only racist, but you supported taxation without representation. Well, this
is nothing about race, it's about the Constitution. It's about
also just being an honest federal government. The land came

(01:17:57):
from Virginia and from Maryland for the purpose of creating
a federal unclave that would never be part of any state,
never be inside a state, never be inside a city.
It would be a federal unclaved so that no state
and no city could ever try to blackmail or extort

(01:18:18):
things out of the Congress or the White House. And
these people have just completely rewritten history. This is about
preserving the Constitution. And if they were going to make
DC into a state, you first have to cede it
back to Maryland and then ask Maryland if they're okay

(01:18:39):
with carving that state out, and then we deal with
it from there. But let me tell you, the people
that believe in taxation without representation are the Democrats. And
when I first got to DC and I saw in
the license plate taxation without representation, I'm going, really, what's this?
And then I find out there is no federal territory

(01:19:02):
Puerto Rico, Guam, all of our territories do not pay
a dime of federal income tax because they don't elect
a full voting representative, which is DC's case. DC is
being treated unfairly. And the solution is either have a
constitutional amendment to make them a state or a constitutional
amendment to give them a representative, which was tried in

(01:19:24):
nineteen seventy eight unsuccessfully, or you pass the bill. I've
been trying to get a Democrat to sign on too.
None will that ends federal income tax for DC residents.
That is the fair thing to do. Got a bunch
of Republicans supporting, but Eleanor Holmes Norton will not support

(01:19:45):
ending taxation for our constituents, nor will Pelosi or City Howyer.
So it's really pretty lame. The accusations they're throwing at us.
You know, it's pretty unbelievable. Okay, but we're very close.
For the Republicans have a great shot in twenty twenty
two and taken back the House. I think you'd agree.

(01:20:05):
And if you want to, I guess, if we all
want to, Bellweather, what the next election presidential election is
going to look like in twenty twenty four, we could
look at the Senate, not only the House of Republicans
would have take back the House. There is you know,
now we're seeing, for example, that there's a very strong
possibility that there's gonna be a lot of redistricting, a

(01:20:27):
lot of seats picked up by states like Florida and Texas,
seats lost in California, seats lost in states like New
York and elsewhere. That's gonna be interesting to watch. And
but then you've got in the Senate Florida, you got
North Carolina, Georgia, New Hampshire, You've got Ohio, you got Wisconsin,
you got Arizona. I mean, these are big Senate races

(01:20:50):
that we're gonna have in twenty twenty two. Yep, you're right.
And in that regard, if the Democrats were successful in
what I believe though the arts unconstitutional making DC a
state in the method they are trying, then for the
first time, I would have to entertain what many Texans

(01:21:14):
have talked about for over a hundred years. And that
goes back to the joint resolution that brought Texas in
as a state. It said that in Texas, basically Texas
sole discretion, it could divide up into as many as
five different states. Sean it may be time to go
back and look at actually doing that. If they're going

(01:21:36):
to jerryman of the country by creating new states that
were never intended to be such, Yeah, well we're going
to have to wait. I've read that the state of
Texas in your constitution. Is this true that Texas would
have the right to break into five separate states. They've
maintained that right. Is that true? That's exactly right. It's

(01:22:00):
it's a matter well but comment. I'm not suggesting that happen,
but I mean, that's a fascinating it is. If the Democrats,
you know, go nuclear and they try and get four
Senate seats that they believe will be democratic in perpetuity,
that might be a way for Republicans to keep I

(01:22:21):
don't know, some balance in the US Senate. And it
absolutely would be constitutional. It was part of the effort
that brought Texas into the Union. It's in the federal law,
it's part of the state law, and it's they could
divide up. Texas could divide up into as many as five,
it could be less, it could be up to five,

(01:22:41):
and you know, you could create a five different states
that might end up being having eight Republican senators and
two Democrat senators. Fascinating. All right, well listen, I'm sorry
again about your dad. I'd love to just stay the
United States of America and follow the Constitution and not

(01:23:02):
the power grab, you know, the court packing DC, Puerto
Rico statehood ending, the legislative filibuster and all the other
you know, using executive orders and reconciliation and bypassing and
a coe will branch of government. I prefer we actually
do with the old fashioned and constitutional way, Louis. But
thanks for being with us. Thank you for love talking

(01:23:24):
to you my friends. Thank you all right, my friend,
thank you hanging there chat in Texas. What's up? Chat?
How are you? Hey? Sean from Long Island, New York
and one of your listeners on the radio. It's good
to talk to you on the radio. Good to talk
to you. But that's Lenda more than me, right, It's
good to talk to you. Okay, boys, bours, that's what
she says, bos boys boys. Okay. I'm glad I got

(01:23:47):
to have that aspreak. You're with you to start off
this Monday, you know, because of unfortunate situations or not situation,
but things that have happened some shootings, Uh, some police
involvement what have you of? This has seems to take
in a little bit of a light on the whole
debacle of Andrew Cuomo's whole situation ship show, as you

(01:24:10):
would say, on both his sexual allegate, sexual harassment allegations
and also the nursing home. The reason why I say this,
it's such a huge deal, and it seems that because
of big unfortunate circumstances has taken a little bit of
a lesser toll or not much in the news deal

(01:24:31):
anything unlike the latest if there's any more, because he
definitely does not need to get a pass. Look, I mean,
I'm just being very frank here, and I said it
earlier in the program. If you're a conservative and you
spit on the sidewalk or your jaywalk, you're probably gonna
end up going to jail for twenty years of your
life if you're a Democrat, even if the Inspector General

(01:24:55):
finds reason that in fact, there should be a refer
role for lying to Congress. Oh, Roger Stone got twenty
guys in tactical gear. Tactical gear, frogmen, guns drawn, pre
dawn rage CNN cameras. What was the chart lying to Congress,
and they want to put they want to put Manna

(01:25:16):
fort roger Stone and Papadopoulos and all these guys away
for the rest of their lives, so they'd all die
in prison. And it's unbelievable and nothing happens. There's this
massive double standard. So if that holds true in New York, yeah,
Cuomo's gonna get a pass. Will he get reelected? I
have no idea. Has already been elected three times? His
popularity is you know, he's way underwater now. But it

(01:25:39):
wouldn't shock me if the state of New York voted
for this guy again. Wouldn't shock me one bit. Right,
it's going to be a real flap in the face
to the me too movement and Democrats are supposed to
be a voice for the champion for women. But enough
about that. Speaking about Texas, you just spoke to Louie Gomert.
I'm in Texas, and Sean, I know when you get

(01:26:00):
to a later stage in your life you want to
have a ranch. Well, best of my knowledge, you have
a pretty good relationship with our former governor Rick Perry.
Now have a great relationship with him. I like him
a lot. He made me an honorary Texan once exactly,
he's a fellow Texas ak you like me, and he
could put you in he asked connections. I'm just letting
you know because if you have a toss up between

(01:26:22):
a ranch in Montana, a ranch in Texas, or no
ranch but live in Florida, so you have options. Galore,
Sean Hannity, you're my favorite, along with Trump and some
notable others. We would love you down here in Texas.
But if I tell you this, I gotta get out
of here. It's they're gonna raise New York State's tax
to fifteen percent income tax, and I can't at this point.

(01:26:46):
And the incompetence is beyond you can't even begin to
comprehend it. Florida has and Texas both have better infrastructure,
and they spend less than half of what the State
of New York spense. The infrastructure of New York is
it's dilapidated and falling down, and just it's it's a disgrace, waste, fraud, abuse,

(01:27:11):
corruption in Albany, It's disgraceful. I've never seen anything like it.
And yet there's so now they're moving towards legalizing weed.
You know, great now we're pushing drugs on people. That's
all we need to need. We need a stone public
in New York. Although, to be honest, you can't walk
down the street of New York City not smell that crap.
It smells like a skunk and it's it just is

(01:27:34):
a whole different There's a whole different world, and I've
lived in it. I was out of New York sixteen years.
That's why my accent is not as bad as Linda's. Um.
I worked hard at It really kicks in when I
get tired and uh, but you know, it's just sad
what they're doing to the people in New York. And

(01:27:55):
now people are voting and they're leaving with their feet.
They're done. They want to get out. So many Americans
are fleeing blue states. It's now I'm going to change
the electoral map. This was on Foxnews dot com. You know,
the biggest winners are going to be Florida in Texas
two three seats new congressional seats respectively, State New York, California. No,

(01:28:17):
they're not getting any of that anyway. I appreciate the call.
Thanks so much, my friend eight Hunt. Thank you for
