Speaker 1 (00:01):
This Quality Leering Center meant to say quality of learning center.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
They said, we'll do it, making mornings great again.

Speaker 3 (00:10):
But the first thing today on the media appe Thomas.

Speaker 4 (00:14):
We'll do it.

Speaker 5 (00:16):
Jewart said, steal met a day every Saturday too, when the.

Speaker 4 (00:22):
Son comes up, Joey is everything a dream?

Speaker 5 (00:28):
All the treasure Saturday needs.

Speaker 6 (00:31):
No one that Joe's smiled.

Speaker 4 (00:33):
He only eggs.

Speaker 7 (00:38):
Joe honored to be of service to you these mornings,
really is.

Speaker 3 (00:45):
We tell you what went on.

Speaker 7 (00:47):
We'll tell you what we see in the evidence left behind,
the stuff that makes it to the evidence locker. And
then we want to hear how it's impacting you. Where
you are the single or most low part of the
radio station, is you? I hope they you know, besides me,
everyone tells you that it's the most important thing. And

(01:08):
yet you know, all these years have gone by, and
all these places and all these different ways to communicate,
and here we go. I lovingly because I love radio.
I love radio just nearly there with my kids and
my wife and I always have. And the fact that

(01:28):
it's still a going concern with the majority of Americans
tuning to the radio to hear what the hell is
going on in the world. It's it brings a little
bit of wistfulness to me. It brings tear to my
eye that we're still going on. And it's with that
love in my heart that I refer to radio as
the cockroaches of modern American media, because every time somebody

(01:52):
says they've dropped the big one on us, everything else
television and magazines and all these things that have gone
the way of the Dodo, and we are still scurrying
around and you're still tuning in, and God bless you
for it.

Speaker 8 (02:07):
We have so many people who can't see a fat
man standing beside a fin one without coming to the
conclusion that fat man got that way by taking advantage
of the fin one. So they're going to solve all
the problems of human misery through government and government planning. Well,
now we've government planning and welfare had the answer, and
they've had almost.

Speaker 7 (02:26):
Thirty years of it.

Speaker 8 (02:27):
Shouldn't we expect government to read the score to us
once in a while.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
I see they don't want to do that.

Speaker 5 (02:32):
Ron.

Speaker 7 (02:33):
They don't want to do that ron, because that's when
you start to find out about the millions and millions
of memory hold dollars that have vanished into the Somali
community out of the pockets of Minnesota taxpayers. The frauds
that hit in federally governed programs even more so because

(02:54):
there's more steps in between, more people to look the
other way when the grift goes on. And yet anyone
who simply says, hey, maybe maybe we should find out
how much the FBI is spending on surveillance of American citizens,

(03:18):
You're called a grifter. You're the grifter for trying to
gain popularity by saying, hey, point to me the spot
that says we should have insert any agency that we have.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
In any event.

Speaker 7 (03:37):
As we start this Saturday morning, our first things we
must detail so that you know what you're doing. Speaking
of the FBI, they have moved out of the Hoover Building.
I wonder if they left the dresses. December twenty sixth,
shutting down the Hoover Building. Cash Battel posted on x
yesterday they are moving into, interestingly enough, the Reagan build

(04:00):
which is still being retrofitted for the technology. More Land
along the southern border has been conveyed from the Department
of the Interior to the Department of Navy, and hundreds
of Marines have been deployed to this new National Defense
area in Yuma, Arizona, California Department of Motor Vehicles is

(04:23):
being sued over a plan to revoke the commercial driver's
licenses of nearly twenty thousand non citizens. The Asian Law Caucus,
the Seek Coalition, along with the law firm of Wheel
Gottschell and Mangi's LP. The Grateful Dead was weird Gotchok

(04:46):
and Garcia. It's a different firm. I know it sounds familiar,
isn't it filed the class action lawsuit on Tuesday in
an effort to stop the DMV from canceling the non
domiciled CDLs.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
That's the new phrase. Save that one. Kids.

Speaker 7 (05:06):
That one will curve your spine and keep the Allies
from winning the war. Thailand and Cambodia have agreed to
immediate ceasefires today, the two countries said in a joint
statement issued by the Cambodian site, pledging to end weeks
of deadly border clashes. The neighbor's long standing border conflict

(05:26):
reignited this month, killing at least forty seven people in
the battling. President Donald Trump said on Friday he's not
ready to embrace Israel's recognition of Somali land's independence. That's
the northern half of the country where the southern half
of Minneapolis has emigrated from. This is the Christian, democratically

(05:50):
governed side that is not recognized by the Somali government
as actually having any authority over anyone. A gunman opened
fire in Idaho outside the Shoshone County Sheriff's office, wounding
a woman in her car and then grazing the ear
of one of the deputies around two thirty yesterday afternoon.

(06:12):
The assailant is now deceased after an altercation with the police,
and Tom Emmer is trying to open up investigations into
where all the federal money that went to Tim Walls
wound up. Out of these scene the videos of the
nonexistent daycare centers. Oh and Vladimir Zelenski is coming to

(06:34):
the White House tomorrow. Our friends at one twenty seven

sells it at First Free Coffee Bar in Charlottesville's great
friends the Harvey's and their coffee bar that's dedicated to

Considered by most Optimized curcumin is one of the few
bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products on the market. Hi,
I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or

(08:26):
reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

(08:51):
healthy cells even from radiation. Totalwellness dot com where we
help you to look good, feel good, and enjoy total wellness.

Speaker 12 (09:02):
I'm Andrew Saul, Commission of SOLI Security. I'm here to
warn you about telephone scammers pretending to be government employees.
Some of these scammers may say threatening things like you
will be arrested if you don't make payments or provide
personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
are not from US. Real Social Security employees will never

(09:25):
threaten you for information or money.

Speaker 4 (09:28):
If you receive a call like this, hang up.

Speaker 12 (09:32):
Never give the call of your personal information like your
social Security number or bank account, or send money in
any form cash, gift cards, wire transfers.

Speaker 4 (09:42):
Of prepaid debit cards.

Speaker 12 (09:44):
Report the call to our law enforcement arm, the Office
of the Inspector General at OYG dot SSA dot gov.

Speaker 4 (09:53):
Share this information with your friends and family.

Speaker 13 (09:58):
Hi, everybody, I'm Jackhannah. It's always a boy growing up
on a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with animals.
I'm not only in alle of their beauty and kindness,
but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows

(10:21):
them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
at home, but because of their acute senses. They also
perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's

(10:41):
a change in their blood chemistry. Working dogs have a
variety of highly trained roles that contribute to society and
help those in need. So please join me an American
Humane and supporting our heroic working dogs and all the
amazing animals on this planet we inhabit together. Go to
American Humane dot org to learn more.

Speaker 14 (11:00):
Bruh, that's buzzed. Oh yeah, yeah, he's starting with the woots.

Speaker 15 (11:05):
And now a speech.

Speaker 16 (11:06):
I just want to say that friendship is about heart,
art and brain.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
Who's with me?

Speaker 14 (11:13):
Good thing is he knows when he's.

Speaker 11 (11:14):
Buzzed, and my brain is saying when it's time to
go home.

Speaker 17 (11:18):
Somebody call me a ride.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
Love that guy, Me too, know your buzzed warning signs,
call for a ride when it's time to go home.

Speaker 5 (11:25):
Buzz driving is drunk driving.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
Who did you know that more than half our household
energy costs go to heating and cooling. Energy efficiency isn't
just good for the environment, It means lower utility bills too.
One way to reduce your energy waste is a home
energy assessment. Your utility company can help, or you can
learn how to do it yourself at energysavers dot gov.

(11:49):
That's energysavers dot gov.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
You'll learn to look.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
For air leaks around windows and doors, check ducks for holes,
and improve your insulation. Another time to cut energy costs
is when you shop for a new appliance. Look for
the energy Star logo and read the energy guide label,
and there are day to day things you can do.
Lower your thermostat in winter and raise it in the summer,
close fireplay stampers when they're not in use, and keep

(12:15):
air filters clean. For more tips on saving money by
reducing your energy waste, check out FTC dot gov slash green,
a tip from the Federal Trade Commission, the nation's consumer
protection agency.

Speaker 18 (12:29):
As a family member or friend, you may be the
first to notice when a veteran you love has been
going through changes. Things like withdrawing, drinking more, or increased
anger could be a sign of a larger health concern,
but help is available. Listen to hundreds of inspiring stories
at makethconnection dot net and learn how you can support

(12:52):
the veterans.

Speaker 13 (12:53):
In your life.

Speaker 18 (12:54):
Treatment works, recovery is possible.

Speaker 6 (13:08):
It was the sale of.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
College and Eus first thing today on the Talk media
Network by Joe Thomas, the second most famous Thomas and
Charlotte's Rod.

Speaker 17 (13:22):
Would he be ever to go back in the one?

Speaker 4 (13:24):
He's long way better not.

Speaker 16 (13:27):
There's things out there to be in that there were
Begatlan Pride, Thanks the Crown, Thanks God, Thanks creep around
on the crowd and the same the ghost MSUs claiming
it's a vain walks down.

Speaker 8 (13:45):
Last February nineteenth, at the University of Minnesota, Norman Thomas,
six times candidate for president on the Socialist Party ticket,
said if Burry Goldwater became president, he would stop the
advance of socialism in the United States. I think that's
exactly what he will do.

Speaker 3 (14:03):
Yeah, that was a big efron. That was a big if, and.

Speaker 7 (14:07):
You know that was that was a Minnesota that was
much more conservative than it is now.

Speaker 8 (14:13):
But as a former Democrat, I can tell you Norman
Thomas isn't the only man who has drawn this parallel
to socialism with the present administration, because back in nineteen
thirty six, mister Democrat himself al Smith, a great American,
came before the American people and charged that the leadership
of his party was taking the Party of Jefferson, Jackson
and Cleveland down the road under the banners of Marx,

(14:35):
Lennon and Stalin. And he walked away from his party,
and he never returned till the day he died, because
to this day, the leadership of that party has been
taking that party, that honorable party, down the road in
the image of the Labor Socialist Party of England.

Speaker 7 (14:50):
And understand, that was sixty years ago, and it is
only become more and more acute. And the more you
push on it, the more you're called a racist. The
more you point out the Somali community of you know,

(15:10):
one or two percent of it's higher than that, but
it's not the majority in Minneapolis, but they've managed to
make enough noise to make it seem like it's Mogadishu
meanwhile in Somali Land. And I want to spend a

(15:34):
little time on this because this is getting the treatment
by our desk jockey friends, the ones with a camera
and some sofphat lights and a camera and a lapel microphone.

Speaker 3 (15:48):
Ladies and gentlemen Israel and in half.

Speaker 7 (15:53):
The commentariat is losing its lower intestinal control, soiling their
underpants over the grave peril that Israel has put the
United States in by recognizing Somali Land as the legitimate
governing force of a country that for a long time

(16:14):
was called Somaliland. And this is a democratically elected, non sectarian,
though based in Judeo Christian ethic, but open government that technically,

(16:42):
by their accounting, represents the.

Speaker 3 (16:45):
Northern half of the Horn.

Speaker 7 (16:53):
And claims dominion over it, though they are not recognized
by the Islamist government of Somalia, which is.

Speaker 3 (17:05):
Such a great place.

Speaker 7 (17:06):
By the way, they want to bring it to Minneapolis.
And Israel recognizing them as the legitimate government, the geopolitical

(17:26):
commentariat is like, this is going to get more Americans killed.
This is the reason we need to cut Israel r loose.
President Trump asked to say, right now, we're turning sides
and we support Amas. I watched one guy say that
it's time for America to admit they've been wrong about

(17:47):
the Islamists all along, and that we deserved everything we
got in two thousand and one, in nineteen ninety six
and all. So it's such the ultimate in gas lighting.
It's like the abusive spouse.

Speaker 3 (18:06):
Telling their power more.

Speaker 7 (18:08):
Well, you know, if you didn't mess up so much,
I wouldn't have to get so rough with you. It's
it's almost shocking to me if it wasn't for the
fact that in reality, this is the same game they've

(18:29):
been playing forever, and you have to And there's a
part of do we have the clip of wen in

(18:50):
an except part of the time for choosing speech. Shortly
before Reagan talks about those expat Democrats along with him,
he talks about all the dumb things we're doing internationally,
giving money to people who hate us and turning our
back on people who want to be like us. And

(19:16):
after a bit, you know, you say, all right, well,
it's wilful. It's wilful. It's coordinated, and it is intentional.
And I truly believe that it's driven by this idea
that it's better for the American politician to have people
that they can rail against wink wink while the money

(19:39):
keeps flowing. Then it would be to actually promote constitutional,
libertarian government across the globe.

Speaker 3 (20:00):
Oh that's just empire, is it.

Speaker 7 (20:04):
I love these people who say I don't want a
free country, because then we're just part of the American empire. Okay,
So like the poorest American globally speaking, in terms of
global earning potential, the poorest American working overnights at a
convenience store somewhere in Sacramento, California, is still part of

(20:30):
the one percent of the wealthiest human beings on the planet.
Think about that for a second. Somebody working overnights at
the Circle K in Sacramento or one of them is
a globally speaking, is a one percenter the shadowy rich

(20:59):
class that Bernie Sanders always demagogues because the rest of
the world doesn't have close to the prosperity even to
generate something like that. So I think it's time for you.

(21:24):
And I know Trump is trying to do as best
he can, and Zelensky is coming to mari A Lago
on because I'm sure marri A Lago is much nicer
this time of year than Kieva is, even without the
drones flying, to have more sit downs on the things

(21:47):
that he's willing to secede for peace in this zone.

Speaker 3 (21:52):
Russia's already said, we don't want a zone.

Speaker 7 (21:55):
We want Ukraine back, or at least this part of it,
the pustening part.

Speaker 19 (22:01):
Hey guys, I'm Teddy Savage, National League training for Planet
Fitness and the American Heart Association recommends that we all
get at least one hundred and fifty minutes of moderate
aerobic activity in a week's time. But here's the thing
that one hundred and fifty minutes does not need to
be super intense. As a matter of fact, it could
just be you moving your body and doing what you
already love to do, like exercise. And a stronger heart

(22:23):
doesn't just mean cardio, right, it means also infusing your
workout routines with strength training as well. So we are
super excited to be launching our new plateloaded Strength series
and all of our gems. It's already fitted in seventeen
hundred locations, with the goal to have all twenty seven
hundred fitted by the end of twenty twenty five. So
if you need more information, go to our website at

(22:45):
planetfitness dot com, or better yet, download our free Planet
Fitness app. And with convenient locations all around the world
and most of our gyms being open twenty four hours,
it's bound to be one close by.

Speaker 3 (28:34):
Have to appreciate the d O double G you still
wanted only from halftime of the Minnesota football game, you know.
And as.

Speaker 7 (28:52):
We spent a good amount of this morning talking about
the frauds and thefts in minnutes soda of federal money,
the conversation turned.

Speaker 3 (29:05):
Yesterday to well, how does this happen? Why? You know,
it happens when we.

Speaker 7 (29:11):
Allow people who have no authority to do things to
do them anyway. This is what happens when the do gooders,
as Reagan called them back in nineteen sixty four, start

(29:32):
handing out other people's money.

Speaker 8 (29:34):
Seriously, what are we doing to those we seek to help.
Not too long ago, a judge called me here in
Los Angeles. He told me that a young woman who'd
come before him for a divorce. She had six children,
was pregnant with her seven under his questioning, she revealed
her husband was a laborer earning two hundred and fifty
dollars a month. She wanted the divorce to get an
eighty dollar raise. She's eligible for three hundred and thirty

(29:56):
dollars a month and the Aid to Dependent Children program,
the idea from two women in her neighborhood who'd already
done that very thing. Yet, any time you and I
question the schemes of the do gooders, we're denounced as
being against their humanitarian goals. They say, we're always against things,
we're never for anything. Well, the trouble with our liberal
friends is not that they're ignorant. It's just that they

(30:18):
know so much that isn't so.

Speaker 7 (30:20):
Now and how that point has aged right? You and
me now were islamophobes were racist? When truly we are
sitting here saying, if this fraud is being committed against taxpayers,
and there are actual daycare centers.

Speaker 3 (30:42):
For use of this particular milieu.

Speaker 7 (30:46):
Struggling to get thirty thousand dollars to hire one person
to keep an eye on ten kids.

Speaker 3 (30:55):
Three days a week, yet.

Speaker 7 (31:00):
We're signing off on one point nine million dollars a
year for empty daycare centers, and we're called the grifters
for challenging the schemes of the do gooders. We're called
the grifters. We're the ones who are seeking to steal

(31:24):
the power of the federal government from the authority the
duly deputized bureaucrats sent out. And it's like Ray points out,
Ray and his iron law of the bureauc la. It's
not Ray's iron law, but the iron law. I accredit
it to Ray because he's the one who reminded me

(31:48):
of it. Is that there is such a small amount
of the bureaucracy, was it? Pornell Cornell, Pornell wild right, Pornell, Yeah,
Jerry Pornell, thank you for flying. It's well written though

(32:10):
your penmanship. The iron law of bureaucracy in any organization
those dedicated to the bureaucracy self preservation. And that's what
we're living under, is this American government is more important
than the American ethos self preservation of the bureaucracy. The administrators,

(32:33):
the rule makers will always gain control writing the rules,
eventually marginalizing or eliminating the people who joined the organization's
actual mission. These would be oh, I don't know, say
childcare providers.

Speaker 3 (32:55):
And this is where we are. This is every one
of these stories you can check down the box.

Speaker 7 (33:02):
Is a story of if you challenge the bureaucracy, you're
an American because America created the bureaucracy, and to challenge
the bureaucracy. Therefore, if so facto into it is un American.
It's like our constitution. This Constitution for America version two

(33:25):
was written by Roald Dahl or something designed to be
crazy making. But none of it is based in law.
It's based in interpretation of law, and most importantly the
commerce clause.

Speaker 3 (33:43):
Why does the.

Speaker 7 (33:44):
Federal government have the authority even to take your income
before it comes? Because we allowed the Senate and then
we ratified as citizens the sixteenth Amendment allowing them to
take our property before we ever take possession of it.

(34:04):
It's not like the thing wasn't working before. Yeah, we
had the Civil War, but that wasn't And if you
listen to anyone who gets into it, oh, they'll tell
you it was. That wasn't over tax collections. No, okay, Well,
if it wasn't over tax collections, why is one of
the first things you started working on was a change

(34:27):
in the tax law that stopped the states from being
the contributors to the federal budget and went right to
the taxpayers, went right into our pockets. And there the
membrane was broken, the blood brain barrier was breached, the

(34:47):
infection got in. Once that happened, it became precedential. We
can do anything, We can regulate, we can create international
police forces. You get one criminal who runs across a
state line to hide in more ignorant laws without an

(35:09):
attorney willing to say, yeah, but he violated the federal law.
Therefore it doesn't matter whose jurisdiction he's in. Rather than
doing that, we started the FBI and said, well, they
no no jurisdictions. And each time it's so simple to say,

(35:33):
well that makes sense. Anything that you hear that makes
you scratch your head, But after a little splin in,
you said, well, I guess that kind of makes sense.
Patriot That another one more recent. These are all things
that have not lived up to their promise anymore than

(35:54):
the decriminalization of marijuana has led to massive pile of
money just pouring into the state coffers has or here
in Virginia, the gambling revenue. It's still new, but we've
had five or so years of gambling parlors opening up
all around Virginia, new ones in Danville and Richmond coming,

(36:18):
and every cool kid's going to have a casino at
some point, and none of them are making the money
they were promised. And nobody goes back and fact checks that.
They want to fact check Donald Trump's speech. But when
the casino says, yeah, look at us, our first year
in operation, we generated a million dollars in tax revenue,

(36:40):
nobody goes back twelve months to find the story where
they were in front of your state General Assembly say
we're going to create revenue that's going to boggle your mind.
Could be as high as thirteen million dollars in tax revenue.
Think mister congressman, think governor, what you could do with
that kind of revenue. And then when they make their

(37:01):
announcement that their first year of operation they made like
a million bucks in tax revenue, people say, oh, yay,
a million dollars you promised us thirteen The same thing happened.
And you know with the wacky Tobacci in Colorado, every
one of these schemes of the do gooders just makes

(37:23):
more money for the bureaucracy. And then Once the bureaucracy exists,
the bureaucracy becomes more important to guard than the government
they created it. That's where we are today, and that's

(37:46):
how this money gets stolen in Minnesota. And then the
Marxists come along and say, huh, we could get more
Americans mad at Muslims over this. Then they got mad
at Muslims. On September twelfth and thirteenth towo thousand and one.

In twenty twenty four, the American Heart Association celebrates one
hundred years of life saving service as the world's leading
nonprofit organization focused on heart and brain health. Heart disease
still kills more people in the United States each year
than all types of cancer combined, but more than half
of Americans are unaware of this fact, according to a
recent Harris Pole survey conducted for the American Heart Association. However,

(38:25):
the majority of heart disease is preventable. New research has
improved the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of heart disease and
its risk factors. Efforts led by the American Heart Association
have reduced deaths from heart disease by half over the
past century and helped people with heart disease live longer
and more productive lives while managing their condition and risk factors.

Exercise is hard, so is maintaining a healthy diet. Of course,
neither is half as hard as dying. Sadly, type two diabetes,

few lifestyle changes, including regular activity, healthier eating, and not smoking.

(41:22):
Talk to your doctor about your risk for type two
diabetes and heart disease, and if your doctor recommends lifestyle
changes or medication, listen. The reason so many die is

In there with cut off scott Free coming from earlier.

Speaker 7 (44:40):
Lorraine sending an email about that, She said, funniest line
of Hurd on radio in twenty years got off scot Free.
Oh yeah, Well, anyway, sometimes they just lay out there
waiting for you. You know, forty years in radio, I've
never had that. I just like I had that one

(45:00):
opportunity to segue from Toto into Africa by the band
Toto out of.

Speaker 3 (45:14):
Point of no Return, and.

Speaker 7 (45:16):
I said, you know, it's Joe Thomas here, and this
is Toto because we're not in Kansas anymore. And I
think that was twenty five years ago. And you see
how and everyone you're looking at the raya saying, really,
you said this is Toto because we're not in Kansas anymore. Yes, yes, yes,
indeed I did. Guilty is charged, and yet I survived,

(45:38):
but I.

Speaker 3 (45:39):
Never got a dinner.

Speaker 7 (45:41):
So before we get into mac Gold and Silver, incredible
week and it just continued on into Friday as we
got past Christmas. Right now, gold is trading forty five,
thirty three and seventy cents forty five hundred dollars an

(46:03):
ounce silver, and I was wondering if we'd get here
talking to James Luck at jcsgold dot com. Silver is
at seventy nine dollars and thirty four cents announce, And
I asked, silly enough on Monday, if James thought we
could make it to seventy dollars by weeks in, we

(46:25):
might crack eighty dollars by the time we reconvene on
Monday morning. I knew something was afoot when CBS News
had a special report on silver twenty twenty five. So
the networks are finally started to say, Hey, something's going
on over there, So I appreciate it.

Speaker 3 (46:44):
They might be listening. I don't know, but that's that's amazing.

Speaker 7 (46:47):
I remember was it just a week ago, James that
I asked, so so pedestrianly, do you think silver will
crack seventy dollars announced by the end of the year.
I may have to revise that and say, what do
you think is eighty dollars announce achievable?

Speaker 3 (47:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 24 (47:05):
I think it was just a week ago that you
asked that question about seventy dollars and then at this
point I think you weren't dreaming big enough show who knows,
we should have been asking about eighties.

Speaker 3 (47:17):
So we'll see where we go again.

Speaker 24 (47:19):
Running at this pace, eighty is definitely a reasonable target
before the end of the year, which is incredible to
say for silver. So really, toy twenty five has been
an incredible year for gold and silver investors.

Speaker 4 (47:32):
And it's not slowing down, that's for.

Speaker 7 (47:34):
Sure and without question, and understand that as high as
the peaks are, the point of gold and silver is
the stability that they bring, and that that it's a
it's a hedge against the wild whimsies of dictators around
the world that manipulate their currencies. So go to jcsgold
dot com and take a look.

Speaker 3 (47:54):
James. You have a great morning, sir.

Speaker 7 (47:57):
Thanks showing you too, jcsgold dot com. Uh so, you know,
and one of my favorite bits of Christmas was Chuck
GTPH Chuck Chuck Barkley Charles Barkley getting mad because the
NFL decided to play three football games or semi pro
football games because Dallas and the Commanders were involved h

(48:19):
two pro and a semi pro game scrimmage on Christmas Day,
which has traditionally been when the NBA players uh took
center stage.

Speaker 3 (48:29):
I can't. I was gonna.

Speaker 7 (48:30):
I was going to drag you into this whole Charles
Barkley versus the NFL thing.

Speaker 3 (48:35):
But you know, yeah, no, Well.

Speaker 25 (48:39):
As I said, you start to really get uh, you know,
it was the time of year, and I got a
great JJ reddick sound bye for you. But it's the
time of year now when you know coaches are getting
a little alley. They don't want to work Christmas Day,
they don't want to travel because you know, you just
get you know, it's it's the.

Speaker 3 (48:56):
Way, it's what are we watching.

Speaker 7 (48:58):
I think that comes down, I mean, was his point
was felt getting greedy man, uh you know, but greedy.

Speaker 3 (49:06):
For what twelve twelve viewers?

Speaker 7 (49:08):
I mean, you know, the viewership of this stuff is
declining at a breakneck page.

Speaker 3 (49:14):
Yeah it couldn't it could have been.

Speaker 25 (49:15):
I don't know what the numbers, but we couldn't have
been that good. And we'd like to thank the Lions
for participating six turnovers. Really and you play a team
that throws for three yards, they passed for thirteen in
the last like you know century that that that won
a game throwing for less than ten yards whatever the

(49:37):
stat I mean three yards?

Speaker 3 (49:40):
What was it? What was it?

Speaker 7 (49:41):
The coach said about the forward past, there were three
things that can happen when you.

Speaker 3 (49:45):
Throw it to them.

Speaker 25 (49:46):
That's exactly right, all right, one quick thing and then
with Tony Elliott and uh, you know, uv A there
the fans will be I'll probably be able to hear them.
You know, the party is going on in Jacksonville for
I live one hundred mile away, and probably the ACC
is transitioning to a nine game conference football schedule. Now,
that release came out a couple of weeks ago that

(50:09):
the ACC said, hey.

Speaker 3 (50:10):
We're gonna go to nine.

Speaker 25 (50:11):
The move to a nine game conference schedule begins in
twenty twenty six. It's a transition year. Not every team
is going to do that. Twelve teams will play nine games.
Five BC Clemson, Florida State, Carolina, and Georgia Tech will
play eight because of existing non conference power for matchups
and contracts that they couldn't.

Speaker 3 (50:29):
Get out of.

Speaker 25 (50:30):
So anyway, if you're interested in UVA, California, Duke, Carolina,
NC State, and that game is going to be in Brazil,
by the way, in August twenty nine.

Speaker 3 (50:39):
That kicks off. What why we been Anyway, They're going to.

Speaker 25 (50:42):
Brazil to play and Syria used it and then Florida
State on the road, SMU, Virginia Tech, and Wake Forest,
so ubas now Virginia Tech. They're going to play nine
Georgia Tech, Pitt Stanford, and UVA at home. But they've
got five on the road Boston College, California, Clemson, Miami,
and SMU. And I've said this a million times for

(51:04):
those who might be new listeners. Dave Odhen once told
me the three most important things in coaching is scheduling, recruiting,
and scheduling.

Speaker 3 (51:12):
So anyway the way it just your schedule breaks down.

Speaker 25 (51:15):
And nobody could speak about that more than Tony Elliott.
With a seven and one regular season record, they won
the title regular season title for the first time ever
by themselves they shared it in eighty nine and ninety
five and now playing Missouri and the Gator Bowl, you
know which ought to be fun. But Tony Elliott has
been interviewed a million times now over the last couple

(51:36):
of months about how did you do that?

Speaker 8 (51:38):
Well?

Speaker 25 (51:39):
Money they UVA ponied up a ton of money and
they ended up with thirty new players. You know, a
bunch in the portal got nineteen freshmen. And so with
all that, Tony says, it's the landscape that we're watching.

Speaker 26 (51:54):
It doesn't matter if you like it or not. It
is what it is. And I'm just grateful that folks
believe enough in this staff and these players to invest
and hopefully that this is kind of an indication of
what's possible. It's not guaranteed. We're not entitled to what
we experienced this season. We got to earn it. But
if we don't have the resources available, it's going to

(52:16):
be hard to be able to have the caliber talent
to be able to go out and compete in games
like this or games within our league.

Speaker 7 (52:23):
A little message for the donors and any donor to
a university.

Speaker 3 (52:28):
And I still don't know.

Speaker 7 (52:29):
I mean, all the networks, everybody is saying the ratings
are down, the gambling is down, which has been funding
it for the last five years anyway, and I think
I think we've reached that point of no return where
the money is going to start to dwindle and they're
going to come to you and me to replace it.

Speaker 14 (52:51):
Much of neck and spinal pain is caused by the
compression of spinal nerves. According to doctor Jeff Fisher, an Irvine,
California based chiropractor with more than thirty years of experience,
this compression can stem from a chronic condition, acute injury,
or simply aging. Traction is the most effective way to relax, stretch,
and decompress the spine and surrounding muscles and ligaments of

(53:13):
the neck and back. Doctor Fisher explains his inventions. The
Fisher Traction Neck Device and Fisher Traction Low Back Device
safely separates bones to eliminate pain and restore function so
the body can heal naturally. The Fisher Traction devices are
designed to restore the natural curves of the neck and
back and gently induce hydration and motion into the spine

(53:33):
with the use of a release strap. The devices are
convenient and easy to use in the comfort of your home,
and Doctor Fisher's series of YouTube videos provides helpful videos
and detailed instructions. For more information, visit Fishertraction dot com.

The Burden

The Burden

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
