Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:23):
Hey, yeah, they they should calm down. The show is
about to style Reese on the radio.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
Turn it up, turning it up low, turn it.

Speaker 3 (00:32):
Up loud, like a dream come true.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Your Due to the nature of this program, discretion does
not exist.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
It's race on the radio right now on w t
I see News Talk ten eighty.

Speaker 4 (00:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
How we're going out there. Yeah, and welcome to your
Thursday evening.

Speaker 5 (01:09):
Get ready to go home? Just wrapping up the office.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
That's fine, hang out with Reese on the radio on
WTIIC News Talk ten any. Plenty of news and plenty
of views to get into. I want to send a
big shout out to Carl Higbee over at Newsmax, and
of course his publicist Alison. The reason why I'm giving

(01:35):
him a shout out is because on tomorrow's program at
three point thirty, Carl Higbee will be joining the program.

Speaker 5 (01:40):
To talk about anything and everything.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
He's one of the only national news guys who are
covering the d quad scandal here in Connecticut, so he'll
join that. We'll talk about everything else that's happening in
Connecticut that isn't isn't being talked about, with particular the
sanctuary status of Connecticut and a whole lot more. Of course,
Higbee is a he's native to the Greenwich area, so

(02:07):
we'll talk to him about so much stuff going on.
Of course, the stuff that he has covered with regards
to Connecticut and getting them nationwide coverage, a lot of
responses yesterday to the interview with Sean Paul Rayes. I
want to thank you folks for keeping that dialogue open.
It was something interesting that happened yesterday. I'm sitting waiting

(02:32):
for my wife to finish all of our conversations. She's
conversing with all of these all of our friends and
all this other so she's got other business going on.
Waiting for her to sit down so that we can
watch Jesse Waters, which we DVR.

Speaker 5 (02:46):
You know, we got other stuff to do.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
But at night, you know, we rounded up with the
five maybe watch Jesse Waters just as entertainment because we
don't watch anything else on TV. But we like both
of those shows, and last night we're and I don't
believe anything is a coincidence. For those of you who
do watch Jesse Waters, what did you see yesterday? You

(03:10):
saw Jesse Waters employee known as Johnny do one of
those knock on the door interviews. Of course, no one
was home. But as it relates, this story is about
the Cincinnati folks who got beaten up by a mob
of black folks at three am in the morning, and

(03:35):
one of the local politicians set online that they were
begging for that beating, and Jesse Water said, Johnny out
to that politician's front door to knock on the door
to go talk to her about her comments online. Very
similar again, and no one batter than I. I didn't hear

(03:57):
anybody online going, oh, Jesse Waters, what were you doing.

Speaker 5 (04:02):
It's the same thing.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
I know that. Look, the argument about uh Sean Paul Reyes,
it's primarily about whether or not he is either qualified,
has the qualifications, or overall if he is a legitimate journalist.

Speaker 5 (04:26):
And I don't get it.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
I just don't get it, because we all know and
you can't tell me that you don't know this. The
news media has failed you. The legacy news has failed you.
There's a report out today, in fact it was out

(04:49):
a couple of weeks ago that said that overall news
media has diminished, has disappeared in Connecticut. I mean, we're
talking nowhere to be seen. The numbers are so low
as far as local coverage is concerned. You're asking, so,
why aren't they covering this? Why aren't they covering that?

(05:11):
They don't have any reporters, They have no one covering anything,
and the little they do have, those folks are just
trying to keep their jobs. They're not even interested in
breaking news anymore. They just want to go in, punch
their clock, and go home pay their bills. The Woodward

(05:35):
and Bernstein era is gone from journalism, and nowadays we
got people winning pullet surprises for fake stories.

Speaker 5 (05:43):
Rush Russell, Rushi, anybody. That's where we are.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
But that being said, you know, I just love the
fact that people are having a conversation about it and
they're expressing what they think, and that's great. That wasn't
what my opening monologue was about anyway. I just wanted
to get that out there. What my opening monologue is
about is this. How many times have you heard the

(06:13):
term living in the matrix after the Matrix movies came out?

Speaker 5 (06:18):
Yeah, man, that's just the Matrix.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
That's just saying, yeah, we're finally waking up from the Matrix.

Speaker 5 (06:23):
I used to laugh at that.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
I used to I used to laugh at it all
the time when someone said it, Ah, but I gotta
be honest, folks, we have been living in the matrix.
We've been living in an alternate reality made for us
by powers that be, primarily in the news media and

(06:50):
our elected officials. Donald Trump is asking for another census.
He's asked asking the Commerce Department to do another census.

Speaker 5 (07:04):
Let's count the people in the country.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
Let's get a real number, and we are no longer
going to count illegals, and that would be fantastic. And
of course people on the laft Democrats, the media have
lost their minds behind it, and they have to ask yourself,

(07:32):
why why would anyone be outraged at getting the true
number of American citizens in the country.

Speaker 5 (07:44):
What's the pushback?

Speaker 2 (07:49):
No one can tell you. People are saying that they're outraged,
But what is the problem in knowing that the people
who are outraged are revealing themselves because they know everyone
has been living a lie. Perhaps your district isn't as

(08:13):
liberal as you thought it was. Perhaps the whole purpose
of fighting to the point where people are getting arrested,
your public officials are getting arrested, staging stupid stunts like
fighting with ice, creating apps to inform you where ice

(08:37):
is coming and going, that all of it is not
about just slave labor. That Donald Trump is going to
make them reveal themselves. He is going to make them
expose themselves through their outrage. They're going to get their constituents,

(09:03):
all leftist, all liberals, to start fighting for the dumbest
thing ever, and that is for representation that is bolstered
and enhanced by people who do not have the right
to vote. And you want to know what else, It

(09:23):
will expose real simple demographic change, the replacement theory. That's
what all of this is about, is getting Democrats to
walk right into the trap to finally expose the thing
that they have been telling us was fake and phony

(09:47):
all along. That's not what we're trying to do, all
the while telling us that we're going to turn Texas blue.

Speaker 5 (09:56):
How are they intending to do it?

Speaker 2 (09:58):
Migration? It's always about those things. How about Bob Duff.
Bob Duff trying to get low income housing in conservative regions,
what's that about? Why is he going after certain neighborhoods

(10:22):
in certain necks of the wood that are fighting, i
mean fighting tooth and nail to keep these low income
apartments out of their community.

Speaker 5 (10:34):
If it's not about demographic.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
Change, why is it that, Oh, Governor Lamont, who says
that it's wrong for Donald Trump to call the state
of Connecticut a sanctuary state, but then says this out
loud for everyone to hear. Yeah, here's what we do,

(10:59):
is Lena.

Speaker 6 (11:01):
We don't ask people's immigration status when they're going to school,
when they're going to worship, when they're going to the
Here's what we do, is, sir, Lena. We don't ask
people's immigration status when they're going to school, when they're
going to worship, when they're going to the courthouse, when
they're going to the hospital. We make sure that we
don't know their immigration status so that nobody can come

(11:24):
to us.

Speaker 5 (11:24):
And say, turn this person over.

Speaker 6 (11:27):
You know, that's not our job. We're doing everything we
can to keep our people safe, getting criminals off the street,
and protecting the rest of our population.

Speaker 2 (11:36):
Protecting the rest of our population, we don't tell anybody.
We don't ask anybody what their immigration status is. So
when we're asked, we have what's called plausible deniability. What
benefit is it to you that Governor Lamont or anyone

(12:00):
else in this state isn't asking what the legal status
of its citizens. You heard that right, He calls it
our people. What purpose is it to protect them if
it's not to ensure that they stay in power, so

(12:22):
that they never give up the power that they have
to conservatives or Republicans. I spoke to a group yesterday
that has verifiable evidence.

Speaker 5 (12:37):
That there's some cheating going on here.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
Remember I talked about that here on this program, that
something doesn't make sense. The numbers don't add up, that
there's an overwhelming number of Democrats in regions that don't
make sense.

Speaker 5 (12:58):
The so called political shift.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
Was almost immediate election after election, and damn, don't let
me get started.

Speaker 5 (13:07):
In Bridgeport.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
We all know. You know how many times we were
told never to mention a thing. You know how many
times I got told by people in the news media.

Speaker 5 (13:21):
Hell, I'll name names.

Speaker 2 (13:23):
Matt Karen Fox sixty one. Do you remember he went
down there to Bridgeport and the police kept him from
going up to the mayor's office. The police sat downstairs
at the bottom of the escalator and told them don't
go up or.

Speaker 5 (13:39):
They will arrest him. Remember that, You remember what.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
I told you? He told me about that station, about
how the everybody else ignored the story, and why do
you remember it's Bridgeport?

Speaker 5 (13:59):
It might as well be new truth be told. They
didn't want to report it. No one does.

Speaker 2 (14:08):
Because then it would only prompt other people to ask questions.
If it's happening in Bridgeport, what's happening in New Haven?
Anyone bothered to ask Justin Ellicker why he's so I mean,
we're talking over the top, over the top supportive of
illegals in his city. I mean, I thought the man

(14:33):
was just crazy for naming a street after some young
black boy who was running over police officers with his vehicle.

Speaker 5 (14:39):
I thought the man was out of his mind.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
But he's not. He's pandering, and so is Lamont, and
so is Bob Duff. Oh hell, there's some Republicans in
there too.

Speaker 7 (14:55):
You know.

Speaker 8 (14:55):
They are.

Speaker 5 (14:58):
Trying to get some of them to get a spine too.

Speaker 2 (15:01):
Nothing against them, I know that they think it's an
uphill battle, but they have to start asking the questions.
Screw the media. They're not listening to your press releases anyway.
They're ignoring them. I know they've told me they don't
give two damns about your press releases. Folks, they don't
give two damns about what Republicans are trying to fight

(15:23):
this week or that week. I did a breakdown of
all of the news media in Connecticut. Hell, they're all
left leaning. They have no interest in conservative values. You
have no voice here when it comes to the media.

Speaker 5 (15:36):
So screw They've.

Speaker 2 (15:42):
Created a matrix, and a lot of people are stuck
in the matrix. A lot of people in the state
are Oh, that could be mad about it. They can
think it's a slight they can think I'm trying to
insult them. But again, I'd like to ask them a question.
If you're upset about Donald Trump wanting to do a

(16:04):
census across the entire country that isn't counting illegals, what
exactly are you afraid of? What exactly are you concerned with?
Is it something as silly as well, they're not considering
them to be Americans. I'd love to know. I'd love

(16:27):
them to tell me what the big deal is. I'd
like a true count I'd like the census to come
back and tell me that there are only three hundred
and twenty million Americans instead of the proposed three hundred
and fifty, so that we can get a true number,

(16:51):
and so that everyone can see it.

Speaker 5 (16:53):
Americans in the United States three twenty.

Speaker 2 (16:57):
Democrats count three point fifty. I'd like everybody to see
that number. I want everyone to see that number and
be I want to watch them clutch the pearls. I
want to watch every one of them unplug from the matrix,
right out the back of their heads and go, this

(17:17):
isn't steak, this is cruel, this isn't tapioca pudding, this
is grits. I want them exposed, and I want everybody
else to wake up. Like I said in the beginning,
I thought that living in the matrix was a joke.

(17:43):
But it's real. It's real, folks, it's real. Get on board,
wake up, unplug. It isn't what it seems. We'll take
a break, We'll come back. We got more news, more views,
more revelations. Why is the Vellow Airlines taking crap from

(18:06):
these politicians in this state.

Speaker 5 (18:08):
We'll talk about that as well.

Speaker 2 (18:09):
And your phone calls at eight to zero, five to
two two w t C eight zero five to two
two nine eight four two, it's Reesa on the radio
on WTIC News Talk ten.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
Eighty fan of wt C. Then do us a favor.
Download the free honesty app and favorite wt I c.

Speaker 2 (18:25):
Yeah, we're back Reese on the radio news Talk ten
eighty WTIC. Also, don't forget Tomorrow three thirty we're gonna
have Carl Higbee of Newsmax on the show. We'll talk
to him about everything going on in Connecticut on the
national stage, stuff like that. I'm really really excited to
talk to him, uh, because I like the folks over

(18:46):
at Newsmax, the fastest growing cable news outfit out there today,
and I know you guys are a lot of a
lot of you are fans of that. We've got negro
nonsense today and it's sad news in today. Also, uh,
Avello Airlines is taking a lot of harassment lying down.
I want to talk about that in the next hour

(19:07):
as well. After headlines and the stupidest thing I read today.

Speaker 5 (19:13):
This story is a problem for me.

Speaker 2 (19:20):
Because there isn't enough exposure on it in the right places,
and there's an apprehension on the part of certain individuals
to talk about how scandalous this issue is. And if

(19:41):
you haven't heard about it, this is the federal probe
into Senator Douglas McCrory. Uh, and I got his alleged girlfriend,
his alleged living girlfriend. I mean, that's according to the
reports here. They they they allegedly share a home together,

(20:04):
and there is money that McCrory is facilitating to go
to organizations through his alleged girlfriend, and they are subpoena
they're going to subpoena records or they have subpoena records
from them, not just public records, financial records, but also

(20:28):
personal records.

Speaker 5 (20:30):
According to The Connecticut.

Speaker 2 (20:31):
Mirror, Senator Douglas mcrory's entanglement with a web of nonprofits,
corporations and foundations that received and spent millions of dollars
in state funding since twenty twenty, as well as his
relationship with a woman who runs several of the entities
that received money, they said. Grand jury subpoena seeking emails,
financial records, and other information were issued less than a

(20:54):
week ago to the state Department of Economic and Community
Development and the state's Minority Business Initiative Advisory Council, which
is focused on assisting minority owned businesses in the state.
By the way, how many are here? How many fins?
How many minority owned businesses are here? The grand jury
also subpoened all documents concerning any personal or non professional

(21:18):
relationship between Douglas McCrory and Sanseray Cicero Hamlet, who is
the director of several organizations named in the subpoena. McCrary
of Hartford represents the Second District and Connecticut in the
Connecticut Senate. The state released the subpoenas Wednesday in response
to our Freedom of Information acts.

Speaker 5 (21:37):
Somebody leaked it.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
One of the nonprofits Cicero Hamlin controls is Sheba Resource Center,
received at least four hundred thousand dollars in state grants,
according to state records. Here are some other organizations that
they are wishing subpoenas for Blue Hills Civic Association, Girls
for Technology, Upper Albany Neighborhood Collaborative, Society of Human Engagement

(22:02):
and Business Alignment LLC, SHEBA LLC, SHEBA Resource Incorporated, SHEBA
Consulting LLC, the Prosperity Foundation, the Legacy Foundation of Hartford,
Head Co Incorporated, and the YMCA of Greater Hartford and
k T H Advisors LLC. They want them all and

(22:26):
they're concerned about the mismanagement of millions that are supposed
to go to helping people in an impoverished community. And
no one's talking about this. Why because they're afraid. They're
scared to talk about this. Now, I'm going to say this,

(22:47):
and I really, I really think that they should. People
in the media should take interest in this, or at
least considerate. The black community don't care whether or not
you're report on these organizations or not. They don't care
if you're critical of what these folks are doing. They
didn't see any of the money anyway. And guess what

(23:10):
truth be told.

Speaker 5 (23:11):
Ask around.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
Most of black people in Connecticut already think these organizations
are crooks anyway.

Speaker 5 (23:19):
They do. They know the jig is up.

Speaker 2 (23:24):
Do you remember the whole Black Lives Matter to Bacle,
You know everybody who was duped by that, huh? The
ninety million dollars later, the what four or five, six,
seven homes money going to brothers, other lovers and friends.
Remember all of that. The money went to No no

(23:47):
black groups, no black communities. These folks said, they're not
gonna be surprised. No one's gonna scream racism for you
covering these stories. These folks have been literally pulling at heartstrings.

Speaker 5 (24:01):
Of folks like folks in Connecticut for the longest.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
Help us. We're poor, Help us, we're disenfranchised.

Speaker 5 (24:11):
Help us. We're black. And you folks fail for it,
you fell for it.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
And I've got nothing against you being compassionate. That's all
well and good. But you can't be reckless with people's money.
You cannot be reckless with taxpayers money. You just can't.
Not when you have a growing crisis in your state
when it comes to affordability. Not when you know that

(24:40):
people can't afford that same community that you are throwing
millions of dollars at through these ridiculous organizations that do
nothing to help them.

Speaker 5 (24:50):
So you can pack yourself on the back and feel good.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
All this money that you're wasting is doing nothing to
truly benefit those individuals.

Speaker 5 (25:01):
You care so much about. You think this works by giving.

Speaker 2 (25:05):
It to these folks who stand around and going, I'll
help them, just give me the money.

Speaker 5 (25:12):
That's not how it works.

Speaker 9 (25:14):
And once you.

Speaker 5 (25:14):
Folks get through the get past this idea.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
I should say, past this idea that there is a
so called black community that we all run our ideas through,
that we have so called black leaders.

Speaker 5 (25:28):
There are none, They're.

Speaker 2 (25:30):
Never that idea that doctor Martin Luther King Junior ushered
in a new wave of civil rights. They're not after
Jesse Jackson and the whole smearing blood on his shirt debacle,
which is, by the way, been confirmed by plenty of
people who were there. After that debacle of wiping doctor

(25:54):
Martin Luther King's blood on himself, the grift began. All
of these guys are running they and I know look,
and I don't care that those folks are listening, every
one of them. Yes, I'm talking to you, pastor, reverend, archbishop,

(26:14):
divine leader, whoever you are, five percenter Fruit of Islam leader,
whoever it is, or you are Black Lives Matter, Urban League, brother, brother,
stand Tall group. I don't care.

Speaker 5 (26:31):
You know, I'm telling the truth. You've been lining in.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
Your pockets for decades, decades, generations. Even you don't do
anything but hold a barbecue here and there, maybe a
block party.

Speaker 5 (26:50):
You haven't improved anybody's lives, and you won't.

Speaker 2 (26:53):
And everybody who's been giving them this money needs to
recognize that if it's not going directly to those individuals wolves,
they're never going to see them. Keep thinking that black
folks are brown folks, or Asian folks or anybody else
is represented by some group, be it Larraza, that that's

(27:14):
who the people are who represent them, that if you
give them the money, they'll start dishing it out. That's
never how it works. It's never been about that you
give those folks the money and then those folks run
around and grab folks that they can vote for you.

Speaker 5 (27:27):
That's all it is. It's a slush fund.

Speaker 2 (27:30):
You know it. I know it. So nobody's gonna care
those of you in the news media who cover these
stories or cover this story. This money was fleeced, this
money was laundered, This money was probably more than likely
given to a bunch of cronies and friends. And that's

(27:53):
what we're gonna find out. We're gonna see resignations, we're
gonna see people lawyering up. And when it starts to
look really, really bad, some individuals in the news media
will act like it didn't happen. Think I'm kidding. Do
yourself a favor right now, if you've got Twitter, if
you've got X, right now, go on there and type

(28:15):
in this sentence what stories are not being covered in
the mainstream media in Connecticut, and guess what this story appears.
That's what I did. This story appears because I just
wanted to test it. Because Rock and all the other

(28:37):
search engines, the AI search engines, they pay attention to
online chatter versus what's going on in the mainstream media.
And I said, which stories are being ignored? This story's
up there being ignored by the mainstream media. They don't
tell you why it's being ignored. They just say everybody
else is talking about online and the mainstream media is
not jumping on it. Why because it embarrasses what they

(28:59):
considered a most vulnerable It embarrasses the people who are
never to be scrutinized, the people who in another five years,
politicians will be funneling money towards It also says in
this Connecticut Mirror article that Dickie Blumenthal and Christoph Murphy

(29:24):
won't know how much money they approved for this same lady.
Hold on, let's get to that page, because it's it's
a nice chunk. The Connecticut Mirror found that Cicero Hamlin
also convinced two US senators, Democrats, Dick Blumenthal and Christoph Murphy,
to sign off on requests for three point five million

(29:46):
dollars in federal earmarks, and those numbers that money has
not been delivered, probably because somebody got wise to the grift.
Donald says corruption is also active in the suburbs. I'm

(30:07):
yet to hear you expose those towns. Well, Donald, you
don't listen to this show because what you just said
is a blatant lie. Okay, I'll be nicer. It was disingenuous.
That's fancy word for lie. You know, damn well, I
exposed corruption on this show. You're the partisan hack here.

(30:30):
You just don't like anybody to talk about anything black
because you're America's black savior self appointed. I might add,
put an h on your chest and handle it. If
you were truly standing up for black folks, you'd be
standing up for the black folks that also got.

Speaker 5 (30:49):
Grifted in this deal. They were grifted too.

Speaker 2 (30:53):
Representatives went to the legislature and got millions of dollars
on the behalf of the black folk you claim to
be representing, and they got none of it, and people
lining their pockets, and you're sitting here making excuses for
those who allegedly stole that money, which shows that you're
a part of the problem. You would sooner stand there

(31:16):
and defend the crooks than stand up for those who
got nothing. That's what I'm doing. But that's how short
sighted most of you activists are. You just in it
for the grift. We'll take a break. We'll come back,
more news, more views than your phone calls.

Speaker 5 (31:33):
When we return. It's ree Sun Radio a WTIC News
Talk ten eighty.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
Listen to WTIC News Talk ten eighty on the free
Odyssey app download and like WTIC today for alerts on
special programming.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
Also programming note, we will have more details about Project Veritas's,
a three part series with regards to God Armstrong Williams
and former Attorney General Bill Barr. I receive word that
they're going to release it roughly roughly about four or

(32:06):
five o'clock this evening before the show ends. I was
hoping to get I was hoping to get it before
the show so I can at least look at it
and tell you guys about it.

Speaker 5 (32:16):
But we're waiting on it. They did tell me.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
It will be released about between four and five o'clock today,
so we'll at least be able to talk about it
near the end of the show. If that doesn't happen,
we'll definitely talk about it tomorrow and we'll get into
some details, of course, with Carl Haybe of Newsmax will
be on the program as well tomorrow. Not taking any
phone calls now because in a bit we'll get into headlines.

(32:40):
I don't want to ask the question, why is a
Velo Airlines taking this harassment by public officials lying down?
If you haven't heard this story everything from New York
politicians who are trying to take subsidies from a Vello
air Lines. We've got attacks by Justin Elko, whosaying he's

(33:05):
not trying to extort them to do his bidding, but
they have a problem with a Vello because they are
participating in flying illegals out of the country in association
with the Trump administration, and everybody's going after them. You know,
of course Attorney General William Tong is going after him
as well. And I can't seem to understand why Vellow

(33:25):
Airlines is taking this line down. What do I mean
by that? If they've got a contract with the government,
why isn't Why aren't they using their contract to get
the bully polepit to push back that I know that
usually they don't look I think that Donald Trump, President

(33:46):
Donald Trump, Stephen Miller, even I think that even the
Press Secretary Caroline Levitt. I think that they should go
to that bully polepit and express their outrage that an
American business.

Speaker 5 (34:03):
A low fare airline.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
In in Connecticut, that's again helping and assisting average citizens
without you know, considerable wages, be able to fly and
visit family across the country, that they would be penalized
and targeted by politicians. And I'm stunned that knowing they
haven't used their relationship with the White House to let

(34:27):
them know, Hey, you know, we're being crucified out here.
And I don't understand it, because look, I'm no offense.
If I had that relationship, if I was working for
them and they were coming after me, the first thing
I would.

Speaker 5 (34:38):
Do is be like, hey, you know, these folks are
on my back.

Speaker 10 (34:43):
Now.

Speaker 2 (34:43):
I don't know, I've seen looked at the numbers. It
doesn't look like a fellow's really like hemorrhaging travelers in
any way. I think that in the last year from
twenty twenty four to twenty twenty five, they went from
one point two passengers, they're up to one point five.
I don't know if that's a considerable increase for them,
but I just don't understand why they wouldn't push back.

(35:04):
It doesn't make sense to me. So I'll talk a
little bit about those stories with that story as well,
because there's a couple of them related to that. Also
on the program today, we've got to talk about.

Speaker 5 (35:19):
A new movie I found out about. I watched.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
There's another sequel coming out to a movie I don't
think anybody even saw, but apparently it was a success, Greenland,
I'll talk about it as well. What was the other
thing that I need to go?

Speaker 4 (35:33):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (35:34):
Yes, stupidest thing I read today.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
I've got that, and I've got a whole lot more
to get in, plus your phone calls and a whole
bunch of other stuff.

Speaker 5 (35:42):
So don't fret.

Speaker 2 (35:43):
I'm really really waiting for this video to drop from
Project Veritas about Bill Barr.

Speaker 5 (35:50):
I was really really expecting that, Like in a.

Speaker 2 (35:53):
Heartbeat, Hey, Roland, I have to ask you a question
about Sunday Show.

Speaker 5 (35:58):
Are we still, by the way, am I still doing
the Sunday Show?

Speaker 1 (36:02):
Uh?

Speaker 8 (36:02):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (36:03):
Okay?

Speaker 5 (36:04):
What do we usually do?

Speaker 2 (36:06):
Do we take like the interviews that we just do,
like because it's only an hour on Sunday, right, so
we just if I do an interview. We just play
both interviews during that hour. Is that what we do?

Speaker 3 (36:15):
Or is it no?

Speaker 2 (36:17):
Well?

Speaker 3 (36:17):
Sometimes it depends depends on what I hear.

Speaker 2 (36:21):
Okay, so you do you spice it up into like
several breaks?

Speaker 3 (36:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (36:25):
How many breaks for.

Speaker 3 (36:27):
If it's an hour? I think it's four?

Speaker 5 (36:29):
Okay, so four breaks? Okay, good, That's what I'm asking.

Speaker 2 (36:32):
So can we possibly get Reyes and Higbee in this
week's even though it's coming? I know Higgby's gonna be
on tomorrow. Do you think we can still get Higbee
into this week?

Speaker 11 (36:47):
Or no?

Speaker 3 (36:47):
Oh, it's already this week put together?

Speaker 2 (36:50):
Okay.

Speaker 5 (36:51):
I knew that was a reason why I was asking.

Speaker 2 (36:52):
Okay, because I was that was the reason why I
was trying to get Higbee faster.

Speaker 3 (36:56):
So you could do Higbee because.

Speaker 2 (36:58):
It's only a half an hour, I got you, Okay,
good enough, that makes sense, all right, fair enough. I
was just wondering if we could be able to get
him into the package. But just so I know what
would be better for you? Did I do the interviews
earlier in the week or before Wednesday? Or what your
what would be better? I know I'm telling inside Baseball here.

(37:20):
It doesn't matter to me, I don't care. I love
telling people.

Speaker 3 (37:24):
I like to have it by Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
By Wednesday. Okay, good, good good, No, no, no, that helps
me help you. So then I can plan, Because what
I like to do is if I get somebody who's
going to be on, I like Monday to at least
tease the person's gonna be on, and then do a
Tuesday or Wednesday interview and then Thursday and Friday and
kind of keep it free flowing and all that other
good stuff. Because we got Ladies' Night. So that's the
only reason why I asked, Okay, so I want to.

Speaker 5 (37:45):
Make sure that we do all that.

Speaker 2 (37:47):
Ye, okay, good enough.

Speaker 5 (37:48):
All right, So we got more news, more views.

Speaker 2 (37:51):
We'll talk about a vellow airlines, we'll talk about other
news that's in the thing. We got headlines coming up
as well, so stick around for that. Now it's time
to go to the WTIC news room with John Silva
and we'll be back.

Speaker 5 (38:03):
It's tries on radio on wt I see News Talk.

Speaker 1 (38:05):
Tend Griese on the radio making sense of the news. Yeah,
even when it makes no sense at all at all.
Now until a U T I see news talk to eighty.

Speaker 5 (38:15):
Yeah, baby, we're are back. It's res on the radio.

Speaker 2 (38:18):
I gotta address something that somebody says in the chat room,
and this is this is the part that I never
ever seem to understand uh with some people.

Speaker 8 (38:28):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (38:28):
But it's not that I don't I don't think anybody
in the world is stupid. I never ever call anybody stupid.
I don't think that, I know not naive is one
that one that that much. I know.

Speaker 5 (38:38):
I know some people are naive.

Speaker 2 (38:40):
And I want to address that naive statement in a second,
but I gotta do headlines first. President Trump, of course,
is directing the Department of Commerce for a new census.
Of course I mentioned that in the opening monologue. Democrats,
of course, say that they are shocked at it, and

(39:01):
they I don't know what exactly they're gonna be upset about.
But if the census comes out, as Matt in the
chat room says, Matteo says, I wouldn't be surprised if
it turns out that we only have a population of
three hundred million Americans and the other fifty million are illegals.
We may turn out to be made out to be
the case. Also in the news, the Place to Be restaurant.

(39:25):
They're going through some financial issues, even though the owners
received close to a half a million dollars in grant
money from the Hertford Chamber of Commerce.

Speaker 5 (39:35):
Do you guys hear about this?

Speaker 2 (39:36):
It turns out that several of these Place to Be
locations are being shut down.

Speaker 5 (39:42):
Here's WFSB talking about it yesterday.

Speaker 12 (39:45):
Emily begin is walking around Blue Back Square with baby
Greason in the stroller. She's looking for lunch. Lights are
off at the Place to Be.

Speaker 2 (39:53):
I'm not surprised. I've heard that the chain itself has
had issues in the past, so seeing that they're shut
down didn't shock me at all.

Speaker 12 (39:59):
The phone usually eats first at this popular spot, stunning
meals and drinks, ending up on TikTok. It's a gen
z foodies dreamed. No breakfast today, no bottomless mimosas this weekend.
The Department of Revenue Services won't get into specifics, but
a sales tax permit or sellers permit can be suspended
or revoked for several reasons, usually by failing to comply

(40:22):
with tax laws and regulations. Issues with the Place to
Be locations have been going on for over a year.
According to court documents.

Speaker 2 (40:30):
There have been.

Speaker 12 (40:31):
Claims of thousands of dollars in unpaid rent at multiple locations.

Speaker 2 (40:35):
Which is really driving people online crazy, because of course
we're talking about a half a million dollars in grant money,
therefore displaying dispelling that nonsense that I don't talk about
other folks that are ripping off the city and ripping
off taxpayers with grant money.

Speaker 5 (40:53):
So there in your face, half a million dollars.

Speaker 2 (41:00):
Also, Army Sergeant Cornelius Radford, the alleged shooter in the
Fort Stewart incident that took place yesterday, is said to
have sent a cryptic message to his aunt saying that
he'd quote be in a better place soon before firing
on his fellow soldiers at his job. His father has

(41:21):
suggested that his son's sort of a transfer from Fort
Stewart due to racism, an allegation that has not been confirmed.
I knew it as soon as I heard the story.
As soon as I heard his name was Cornelius. I said, yes,
somebody's going to attribute this to racism. Of course, you
know obvious, and that's where we are shooting your co

(41:42):
workers and writing a text message to your aunt saying
you'd soon be in a better place. I talked to
my wife about this. She says that there's something really
really deep embedded in this. She believes it may be
in relationship wise that he was depressed about. We also
found out that Cornelius apparently was able to get a

(42:03):
dui or w dui, and that dui was kept from
his commanding officers. That was revealed after the fact. All right,
and let's get to our stupidest thing of the day.
But look at yes you do active It could very

(42:26):
well be the stupidest person on the face of the area.
Stupidest thing I read today a Chinese man was recently
scammed by his local gym into spending more than one
hundred and twenty one thousand dollars for a gym membership

(42:46):
for three hundred years. I would look, I've been a
part of like Planet Fitness. I did that for a
little while, But I don't know how you get someone
to spend a hundred he is committed one hundred and
twenty one thousand dollars in a gym membership that expands

(43:13):
three hundred years. They were launching a special offer for
loyal members only, selling them a cheap long term membership
that would then resell to new members for double the price.
It happens often, according to Chinese reports, that you can.

Speaker 5 (43:34):
Somebody can convince you to do a three hundred year
contract with a.

Speaker 2 (43:41):
With the gym. I like, I don't know. That's the
reason why I started buying like weights and all that
stuff from my house because I couldn't convince myself to
go down to the gym. I know people who do,
I guess because they want.

Speaker 3 (43:53):
To be seen.

Speaker 2 (43:54):
But I'm a home gym kind of guy. Do you
do the home gym thing? I have a feeling you
go to the gym Rowland. Didn't you say that once?
Say what do you go to the gym? Or do
you have a home gym?

Speaker 3 (44:08):
No, I'm in a gym five to six days a week.

Speaker 5 (44:11):
You go to the gym a lot.

Speaker 2 (44:14):
Yeah, Can you tell me what kind of gym it is?
Is it co ed or just guys or is it?

Speaker 3 (44:18):
Like no, No, It's like I was at Ellie Fitness
for years, but like I do remember you saying that
for like a decade, and then just found a gym
that was closer to my house because I got tired.
It was like twenty minutes away. I know that's not far,
but twenty minutes is a way to go to a gym.
If like, yeah, that's what make me. I'll come home,
come home sometimes and just be like, you know what,

(44:38):
I don't feel like last twenty minutes? Yeah, exactly, And
then I wouldn't go. So I found one that opened
up right around the corner. I've been going to that.

Speaker 2 (44:48):
Okay. Is it an independent one, not like a big name?

Speaker 3 (44:51):
Yeah, yeah, you don't have to.

Speaker 2 (44:53):
Tell the name.

Speaker 5 (44:54):
I just want to know if it's an independent versus
like you know, the like.

Speaker 3 (44:57):
Golds or it was a first one in Connecticut. I
think they have a bunch of them in Florida.

Speaker 5 (45:01):
Oh okay, Oh okay, that's interesting. What kind of what
do you do?

Speaker 2 (45:05):
If you know, I'm asking, what's your what's your routine? Treadmill?

Speaker 5 (45:09):
Weights?

Speaker 3 (45:09):
Like, I don't do a lot of cardio anymore.

Speaker 2 (45:13):
I used to.

Speaker 3 (45:13):
I used to do that, but now you know, I'm
in my forty so I'm not too worried. I'm not
too worried about running, but I do a lot of
I do more reps than weight I did. I did
my heavyweights when I played ball and all of that.
So now I just do for shredding, I just do
a lot of reps.

Speaker 2 (45:34):
Well, let me ask you this, because I know your hobby.
Well it's almost a profession to you. Is bowling? Do
you do a lot of weightlifting for that sport?

Speaker 3 (45:43):
Correct?

Speaker 2 (45:44):
You do? Okay? I had a feeling that the two
were coordinated in some way.

Speaker 3 (45:48):
Okay, yeah, you have to do full body though, so
I do you know all the full body exercises and
then and then I do a lot of focusing on
making sure I can bowl like fifteen games in a
day and without getting like super tired.

Speaker 5 (46:02):
Or fifteen games in a day.

Speaker 2 (46:05):
Yeah, but I don't say it like that. Nobody.

Speaker 5 (46:08):
Most people can play two or three and then they're.

Speaker 2 (46:10):
Ready to go home.

Speaker 5 (46:12):
Fifteen games in a day?

Speaker 2 (46:14):
How many? How many? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (46:16):
Because it's three game sets, So oh it's only three
on like four or five? It maybe like four three.
It's either three, four or five squads a day. So
if you're bowling five squads and three game sets, then
hell no, that's that's fifteen games.

Speaker 5 (46:30):
No, that's a lot.

Speaker 2 (46:32):
That is a lot.

Speaker 5 (46:33):
But you know what, you gotta love it. If you
love it, then that makes sense.

Speaker 3 (46:35):
You gotta get that money man, and then I just like,
it's not to be honest, it's really not about the
winning the money. It's about being able to compete. And
when you when you play basketball your whole life and
now you don't have anything else to compete in it,
it becomes a little difficult and you kind of get
a little depressed. So it's something forward to you know,

(46:57):
you makes you go back in the gym and work
card and then say, hey, Okay, I'm gonna work hard
all week because I want to be great on the weekend.
So got And that's kind of the mindset.

Speaker 2 (47:09):
All right, Well, I totally get it. In the commitment
is so totally commendable. I on the other hand, I
have all my gym stuff here. In fact, I'm about
to build another gym. I got it. I kind of
I just have to do it at home because I
needed to be as close as possible. I like, if
I'm gonna work out, I need to take like two
maybe three steps to go get to the weights. I'm

(47:30):
not doing twenty minutes.

Speaker 3 (47:31):
I mean, it's not wrong that I started at home
when once I gained a lot of weight, and I
was like, at one point, I was like two hundred
and forty pounds, which I could not believe I'm there now.
Then I started working out at home because you know,
you're kind of shamed.

Speaker 5 (47:44):
You don't want to go to the Yeah, I don't
want anybody to see the roles all your fat.

Speaker 3 (47:48):
So once I got down to like two twenty, then
I started going back to the gym.

Speaker 2 (47:53):
Yeah that makes sense.

Speaker 5 (47:54):
Now I'm an like two o eight, so that makes sense.

Speaker 2 (47:56):
I can totally appreciate that. Yeah, but again, I'm not
doing another membership ever in my lifetime ever. Again.

Speaker 3 (48:04):
Ever, it's not terrible.

Speaker 5 (48:06):
Yeah, I mean I just you know what it is.

Speaker 2 (48:07):
I just don't want them go you waste.

Speaker 3 (48:09):
I think they I think they uh and that this
is not just with gym, this is what any monthly
outside of your regular bill thing. I think they hope
people don't show up because I know they just want
you to forget about it and just let the monthly
bill just keep hitting.

Speaker 5 (48:25):
Just get I'm not gonna lie.

Speaker 2 (48:26):
One particular time, six months, they just kept taking that ten.

Speaker 5 (48:29):
Dollars there every month, and I wasn't going.

Speaker 3 (48:34):
It's like nothing, you know, It's like, okay, it's just
ten dollars a month. That's nothing, but when you combine
that by two thousand and three thousand and four thousand people,
then now you got a nice little monthly income.

Speaker 2 (48:46):
Yeah. Indeed, absolutely, I want to give a shout out
to somebody that I care very much for because what
she's doing is necessary. Fortunately I wish it wasn't necessary.
And she, of course is our good friend. She's been

(49:06):
here on the show. She is everywhere. If you follow
her online. If you don't, please look her up. It
is none other than Karen Thomas a Friendly Hands Food Bank.
I just want to acknowledge her or her husband Ken.
I love them. They are family to me. My wife

(49:27):
loves them. And what they're doing is of course at
Friendly Hands Food Bank. What they do is feeding the
hungry in Connecticut, and they are affiliated with anyone and
everyone everywhere and getting those organizations food. So if there's
like a truck coming in, it needs to, you know,
offload some of the food that they have. Karen coordinates

(49:47):
and she does logistics to get other food banks food.
And she is a powerhouse in this. She has dedicated
her life tonight and to other things. But she's just
she's a godsend. I love her family and everything that
they do. But I may this may be a little

(50:08):
bit of friendly fire, but it's not on I swear Karen.

Speaker 5 (50:11):
Is is not on you.

Speaker 2 (50:13):
But I understand that on Tuesday Governor Lamont was at
the new facility. That Governor Lamont went down there to
look over the new facility as it's being built in Torrington.
And I gotta say this, Governor, with all due respect,
you can't show up there raving about a larger food bank.

Speaker 5 (50:39):
You can't show up.

Speaker 2 (50:41):
It would be like showing up raving about a bigger
shelter for the homeless. These things are happening under your leadership, Sir.
Karen Thomas and the Friendly Hand Food Bank had to
get a bigger facility because they serve of over eleven

(51:01):
thousand families. Okay, the need has grown every year I
talk to Karen. The number of people that need in
Connecticut is growing. You can't show up there and flex,
my man, you can't. This is what the kids call

(51:25):
not a flex. Calling her a godsend is acknowledging that
you are not one. Sir. The fact that you would
show up there again, I know, is to support Karen,
and I appreciate anybody who's going to support Karen in
her efforts.

Speaker 5 (51:43):
What she's doing, again, as I said, is a good thing.

Speaker 2 (51:46):
There are people who are in need and they can't
afford food, and the endowment that they got to expand
is a good thing and a bad thing. It's a
thing that doesn't need to happen, or it wouldn't happen,
but needed to happen because the need is growing. But
it's not something you should show up in flex The

(52:08):
fact that you put on a hard hat and showed there,
showed up there, it's not a sign of leadership. It's
a sign of failure. What you're supposed to show up
to as a governor, and it's real simple. What you're
supposed to show up for is a new business opening

(52:29):
up in Connecticut, a new company coming in that's hiring
more and more people from low income backgrounds. Those are
the things you have to be there, showing investment into
the state that's actually going to help the people that

(52:50):
Karen is helping. Does that not make sense to the
people here? And I'm looking at this article and sure
everybody is doing the usual stenographer stuff taking quotes. The
governor said this, food share said that, but there's no question,

(53:12):
there are no questions to the governor. Governor Lamarin, are
you concerned that Karen Thomas and a Friendly Handed Food
Bank had to grow and move their facility from a
home into a warehouse because more and more people are starving?

(53:33):
Does that concern you? And what are your plans to
alleviate that? What are you doing to put Karen and
the Friendly Hands Food Bank out of business? And Karen
knows exactly what I'm talking about. What are you doing
to put her out of business? What are you doing
to ensure that Karen doesn't have to be in a

(53:56):
warehouse serving over eleven thousand families doing not one person
bothered to ask. So I appreciate again showing your support
making sure that Karen has the funds to do this,
giving her the grant. I know what she's going to
do with it. I know how passionate she is about this.
She is anywhere in everywhere. This is one of the

(54:18):
hardest working people in the state. Everybody here knows it.
Everybody here knows it. This woman has put this on
her back and she has carried it. She has fought
long and hard, and she refuses to give up. That's
why we love her here. That's why whatever that woman
asks for, I am on it. But dude, this is

(54:40):
not a flex. The only person who should have been
there getting any kudos is Karen Thomas, not you. You
deserve no shine for this. You have to be called
you have to be called out for it. Karen exists
because of your failure. Sorry, buddy, That's just the way

(55:01):
it is. The fact that people can't afford to live
in the state, the fact that people can't afford to
eat in the state, that is on you. And you're
going to be running for reelection, and if I'm the
guy running against you, I am going to point out
that you showed up at a food bank celebrating the

(55:21):
fact that people can't eat, patting yourself on the back.
That's what I would do, And I would be talking
about that every single day that the governor, the current governor,
the sitting governor, is running around applauding himself about people

(55:45):
getting food from a food bank not being able to
care for themselves. It's embarrassing and it should be. But
I know a lot of people in this down they
don't even say. They're too arrogant to see how embarrassing
that is or they're too stupid.

Speaker 5 (56:02):
I don't know. I'm just here to let you know.
We'll be back. I got more news, I got more views.

Speaker 2 (56:10):
We'll talk about a fellow airlines taking this lying down
negro nonsense is coming up. We got our between rounds winner,
So stand by. It's res on radio on WTIIC News.

Speaker 5 (56:21):
Talk to ned.

Speaker 2 (56:22):
Hey, did you hear it's our birthday?

Speaker 5 (56:25):
One hundred years?

Speaker 2 (56:26):
Did you happen to get us a present? Speaking of birthdays,
mine is coming up in seven days.

Speaker 5 (56:39):
I cannot wait.

Speaker 2 (56:42):
The only reason why I'm excited is because I get
to be fifty six. As you know, fifty five is
that's my target age. But now I'm getting really, really
nervous about getting older. I'm like, oh right, slow down,
slow down? Can I say fifty five forever? But yeah,
I'm still excited for my birthday.

Speaker 5 (57:01):
I just am. It's been a great year.

Speaker 2 (57:04):
Anyway. I want to address this real quick before I
get to some phone calls. But let me say this.

Speaker 5 (57:11):
Donald.

Speaker 2 (57:11):
You guys know who Donald is. He used to call here,
you know on Todd Show, and he says this, He
goes Reese, I don't support corruption in any form. With
that being said, you make a living tearing down Black
people and their communities while turning a blind eye to
your own party and non black communities. Okay, first of all,

(57:35):
that's bull that's a complete lie, and it's first of all,
it's disingenuous, but it's a flat out lie. It's bogus.
You clearly don't listen to this show. The only thing
you hear. You must be deaf to this show until
you hear me mention black folks. The whole time, you
must be saying, I'm Hampney. You must be deaf in

(57:59):
one ear, and then all of a sudden you hear
me say something about black folks. Were like, Oh, all
of a sudden, you have the perfect earing. You hear
everything I say. Then, so, Donald, here's my response to
you and anybody else for that matter. You you damn
sure support corruption in the black community. You say you don't.

(58:23):
You don't support it, You don't, you don't push back
against it, you acknowledge it. But what have you done
when you found out that corruption was happening inside the
black community, that there were disenfranchising more and more kids
inside the black community.

Speaker 5 (58:40):
Did you ring any bells? Did you get your poll
Revere On.

Speaker 2 (58:45):
Did you run around telling people in your community that
they were being shafted by so called African American leaders. No,
you didn't say a word. Use this set by with
your arms boilers saying tis tisk tisk, it's a shame
with them black people doing to our community. You never

(59:05):
did a thing, and then when somebody like me said
something about it, you protect the oppressors. Now, I'm not
into calling names, that's not my style, but sir, you're
a part of the problem because you protect the people

(59:27):
who are doing your community harm every day. And the
reason why is because you're scared to death of them.
You can't say anything to those people. You can't say
nothing to the drug dealers, you can't say nothing to
the gang bangers, and you can't say anything to the
politicians who steal your hard earned money to line their

(59:47):
own package. You can't say a word to them. You're
scared to death of them. And you admonish me because
I have no fear, because I'm not aligned with any
one of them. I have no allegiance to you or
anybody else, much less the community. I'm untouched. I'm not
a sellout. I have been bought or paid for. Do

(01:00:09):
I make a living off what exposing the truth? I'll
take that check every day exposing people who are corrupt.
I'll take that check every day. I'll cash that check
every day with pride and sleep well at night. And
at the same time, where people like you will turn

(01:00:30):
around and come after me, but never go after the
people who are actually stealing from the community, never ever
putting their dragging their feet and bringing them to the
public or exposing them for who they are. You sit
up here and they monish me. Please, you bore me,
You bore me. I'll tell you this story, and you

(01:00:51):
know you remind me of this woman. We need to
look up who this woman is. All of you should
look up who this woman is. You ever hear the
story about the woman who stabbed doctor Martin Luther King
Junior in Harlem?

Speaker 5 (01:01:01):
You ever heard about that woman? You should look her up.

Speaker 2 (01:01:06):
Look up the.

Speaker 5 (01:01:06):
Picture of doctor Martin Luther King Jr.

Speaker 2 (01:01:08):
In the Harlem hospital after he was stabbed by that
black woman. Anybody want to know why she stabbed him?
She said, don't you go in there making no trouble.
You're making out making trouble out here for everybody.

Speaker 5 (01:01:23):
You want to go.

Speaker 2 (01:01:24):
Watch that video with Jesse Jackson on Bill O'Reilly's old show,
caught off camera talking about Barack Obama's speech to Black Fathers,
where he said that Barack Obama was out here teaching
n words how to live.

Speaker 5 (01:01:42):
I want to cut his testicles off. That's you.

Speaker 2 (01:01:48):
That's you. That's you, and every person who would sooner
come after me. Then deal with the people who were
robbing you blind and keeping everybody, everybody in poverty, claiming
that they're taking money there, they're getting money for their communities.
That's why there's this investigation. You can rag on me

(01:02:09):
all day. I've got the truth and my integrity on
my side. People like you, quimbos, go look them up.
Go to them out scovery, go look them up. That's
exactly the kind of attitude you are. You have, quimbos.

(01:02:32):
If you knew anything about that, you wouldn't even come
after me. Oh baby, call me and Uncle Tom. He's
the hero in this story. I live with that proudly,
never ever going to offend me. Now to the phones,
we go. Let me take you know, I'll take I'll

(01:02:57):
take Mark. What do you got you? I know you
you're in this story like a like a hog in dirt.

Speaker 5 (01:03:05):
You see how much money these folks are responsible for dealing.
Where is he? Okay, maybe he's not there. That's all right,
we'll get him back. What's going on, Frankie? Do I
have nobody? Okay?

Speaker 2 (01:03:23):
There he is? Frank You there?

Speaker 13 (01:03:26):
Yeah? How you doing today?

Speaker 2 (01:03:27):
What's up?

Speaker 5 (01:03:27):
Buddy?

Speaker 13 (01:03:28):
You tell the truth all the time? Mark from West
Harford nailed it a couple of weeks ago, and I've
noticed this. You can't tell the truth anymore in this country. No,
for three reasons. Three reasons. One people it hurts their feelings. Second,
they won't admit they're wrong. Or third they have an agenda.
You are you and one other black man I know,

(01:03:49):
and you know this guy tell them like it is
Denzel Washington. He has clips on YouTube and he had
a clip the other day and it's so true for
all man, not just black man. He says something I've
been telling these young guys for decades. Don't waste your
time and money chasing women. Build wealth and then guess what,

(01:04:09):
don't find you?

Speaker 2 (01:04:10):
Yep, so is the case, and then you'll have to
then you gotta beat them off. You you know what
I mean.

Speaker 13 (01:04:18):
I'm not gonna mention a woman. She was like a
fox around the henhouse. After I made it big, she
went away to me when I was poor. That's what
you do. Otherwise you're gonna waste all your time and
money and then they're gonna end up dumping you and
they're gonna end up forty years old, broken with nothing.

Speaker 2 (01:04:33):
Exactly that guy's.

Speaker 13 (01:04:35):
Very successful, forty four years married to the same man,
a tremendous role model. But you tell the truth.

Speaker 2 (01:04:40):
And that's the problem that they and they don't because
they think I'm supposed to have some allegiance. They they
placed me in this category that says you're black, stand
for black things, staying for the black things that we
tell you to stand for. And I'm just like no,
and I'm gonna do it defiantly until it drives them crazy.
They'll either joined or they'll just continuing to attack me.
But I wish they understood. You know, I've been married

(01:05:02):
four times. I know what it's like to be attacked.
It's like it's nothing new.

Speaker 13 (01:05:13):
Thank you man, that's another story. But no, you just
can't tell the truth that it's sad because but if
you pack all the money that want the black organizations.
Black people should be the wealthiest people again.

Speaker 2 (01:05:24):
But see that's you know what. I'll get into that
in a minute. Thank you, buddy, I appreciate you. That's
one of the biggest problems here. See, that's the biggest
problem with all of this, right, and it's the reason
why no one wants to touch the story. Donald is
a perfect example as to why no one will expose
this corruption happening, with these these alleged criminal activities. The

(01:05:47):
reason why no one will touch them is because there
is news media out there.

Speaker 5 (01:05:51):
It's just like they're just gonna call us racist.

Speaker 2 (01:05:54):
We can't cover it, we can't alert the masses, we
can't do our jobs because we're so so concerned about
what we're going to be called, what we're going to
be admonished for, instead of doing what we're supposed to do,
and let's tell the truth, reveal the truth and inform
people so worried about their own personal reputation, instead of

(01:06:16):
looking at those people and going, hey, if I didn't
expose it, the corruption would continue. More and more people
would be allowed to take more money out of your mouths,
out of your pockets, and do nothing for you. She
can be mad Donald over here is upset? Why because
I need to expose white people. You need to expose

(01:06:36):
white people where you've been Try this on for size, Donald,
I expose all people. And again, have you not been
listening to this show all week? What do you think
the Connecticut Green Bank is part of the NAACP? Huh?

Speaker 5 (01:06:57):
Did I talk about the Connecticut Green Bank?

Speaker 2 (01:06:59):
Yes?

Speaker 8 (01:06:59):
I did.

Speaker 2 (01:07:00):
Did I talk about the five and six million dollars
that Connecticut got for the removal of hydriller using d
quat even though it only takes about one hundred and
thirty five thousand dollars to actually remove it, to start
exposing money being handed out like freaking candy in the state.
But did you miss those stories? I've been talking about

(01:07:22):
dig quat at nauseum. In fact, some audience members are like,
well the guy, move on, where were you?

Speaker 5 (01:07:29):
I didn't hear you once?

Speaker 2 (01:07:30):
Even thank me for pointing out the fact that it
ain't just white folks water that's going to be affected,
it's yours too, unless, of course, you're still drinking from
a colored fountain and that comes from a different well.
You let me know you're never ever gonna get me

(01:07:50):
to relent. You can't bully me, you can't scare me.
You're the person who's afraid. You're the person who's biased.
You're the one who's bigoted. The true racist is you,
and you'll protect the corruption as long as it's got
a black person's name behind it. You'll let them fleece

(01:08:11):
everybody in your community. You're no savior of black people.
You're the problem. You're just as corrupt as the people
who steal from them. And until you get it through
your thick head that I don't care that, I do
not care, I'm here to expose all of that. I'm

(01:08:33):
here to expose every bit of it because the important
part is that everybody in Connecticut and across the country,
they're all affected by corruption. It's not a black or
white thing. It's a greed thing, and that's something you're
supposed to be against. Remember greed. But apparently that takes

(01:08:54):
furloughs if they're black people involved. That's shameful and embarrassing.
Don't preach to me, buddy, please. It sounds like a
hypocritical thing to do, because it is.

Speaker 5 (01:09:12):
But Ahalla, I love you.

Speaker 2 (01:09:15):
Here.

Speaker 5 (01:09:17):
We got more news and more views.

Speaker 2 (01:09:19):
When we returning, we'll take more of your phone calls.
When we get back, it's rees on the radio on
wt i C News Talk tenndy.

Speaker 1 (01:09:26):
On the radio, ask your doctor of common sense? Is
right for you? Right for you? Newscd w t I see.

Speaker 5 (01:09:34):
And also, you know what's really really important.

Speaker 2 (01:09:36):
You know, if you really really want me to stop,
call all your black friends and tell them to listen
to w t i C from two to six every week.
In fact, they'll hear so much stuff that I say
that they'll probably call the front office and say, you.

Speaker 5 (01:09:49):
Gotta ban that guy. If you really really want to
get me to.

Speaker 2 (01:09:51):
Stop, you know, you guys protest everything, you know. You know,
say that, then tell people, oh that there's a sellout
on the radio. There's this black guy on there is
completely selling us out. Just let them know. Please, they'll
run here in droves. But I'll tell you can't tell
you a little secret. Let me tell you a little secret.

(01:10:14):
You want to know why they won't run and tell
the black community that I'm here, because if they do
start listening, they'll start agreeing. If they do start listening,
they'll start understanding what's happening to them. And nobody much
less Donald ever wants them to be exposed to the truth.

(01:10:37):
They're definitely afraid of people like me. That's why they
keep asking me to stop. And they'll never run around
and hold the protest to get rid of me, because
if people found out that I was here in a
black community, it's over.

Speaker 5 (01:10:53):
Over even I know that now Marky mark is back.

Speaker 2 (01:11:00):
What's that, buddy?

Speaker 14 (01:11:01):
You got me Sinnings.

Speaker 15 (01:11:02):
So first I got to tell you, when you impersonate
those Charlotteans in the black community, the leaders whatever you
want to refer to them, the laf household, the Walls household,
your nickname is reef Ex Hopkins, we'll have a bumper
we love. I mean, it is just funny now and
then real quick, I can't wait till you come up

(01:11:23):
here because guess what, We're gonna go meet with a
community leader Hyacincienny. Maybe will get the Boe guy that
you remember last year when we started talking about gender
queer going in in schools. Indeed, they never heard of
gender queer and they don't know who bobbed up is.

Speaker 2 (01:11:39):
Indeed what that don't you're indeed right, nobody in that
community knows anything about what's going on.

Speaker 15 (01:11:47):
So so I can't wait, but listen, that's not why
I'm Paul. So you know the breaking news, you communicate
with Reverend Pastor Dell, Yes, who of course is trying
to get some legs and finding out, you know, hey,
what going on with the Metropolitan Church in Hartford?

Speaker 5 (01:12:02):
Exactly?

Speaker 15 (01:12:03):
The underage kids to transition. What did you see when
I'm glad Connecticut Sentinel is covering it. And in fact,
Mark Fitch is going to reach out to him.

Speaker 4 (01:12:14):
I just got off the phone on him.

Speaker 15 (01:12:16):
He's going to reach out to pass the Dell.

Speaker 4 (01:12:18):
So this came from the State Police.

Speaker 2 (01:12:20):
I know I'm reading it now, you go ahead and
break the news.

Speaker 14 (01:12:24):
So this is the state Police.

Speaker 15 (01:12:27):
Because of course, first we got to back up this
a little bit.

Speaker 10 (01:12:29):
A g.

Speaker 15 (01:12:30):
Tong wanted the state police to reach out to him
and asked him like what is was to be looking
into the Metropolitan Church?

Speaker 2 (01:12:38):
Right, And because he used because he used the phrase
silence equals death, William Tong had a State Police detective
contact Reverend Dell, which I talked about yesterday. So the
police have contacted Reverend Dell. What did they say in the.

Speaker 14 (01:12:56):
Text, In the simple text, simple, sir, reaching out to
notify you that the case has been closed as non criminal.

Speaker 15 (01:13:07):
Now you know, I've been pulling and asking for police
reports for many years. I'm still waiting. I got one
it's going on here. Two, I got another one that's
forked dow. I'm not even gonna tell you what they're about.

Speaker 7 (01:13:19):
It's not worth it yet because I can't tell you
much until I get them.

Speaker 15 (01:13:22):
Well, guess what, when they close the case this fast,
that is one of the biggest red flags you can
You can send up the poll indeed, And.

Speaker 13 (01:13:30):
So guess what.

Speaker 15 (01:13:31):
And I asked Pastor And I don't expect Pastor.

Speaker 8 (01:13:33):
Dell to kind of know how to do all this.

Speaker 15 (01:13:36):
But the first thing I go like, what's the case number?
And he goes, oh, I don't know. I said, well,
if you can find that out. If not, I will,
But guess what I'm.

Speaker 13 (01:13:44):
Gonna go and maybe we'll use Sean Paul's Oh.

Speaker 2 (01:13:46):
No, no, we gotta yes, listen, we got a foy it.
We have to foy it to find out. Yep, that's
exactly what we need to do. Listen, I'm gonna have
to take I gotta take a break, But you're one
hundred percent right. The first thing we should do is
foy that police report and what prompted the investigation.

Speaker 5 (01:14:04):
That's a very good point.

Speaker 2 (01:14:05):
Mark, Thank you, buddy, you got I appreciate you and
Pastor Dell.

Speaker 5 (01:14:09):
If I played any role.

Speaker 2 (01:14:11):
In that, man, I'm telling you I did it from
the bottom.

Speaker 5 (01:14:13):
Of my heart.

Speaker 2 (01:14:13):
So I know you heard it when you were on
your drive home. But everything I said was absolutely truthful.
Nobody should be coming after you. Let's get some traffic
and weather in the BPS Traffic Center with Mark Christopher.

Speaker 5 (01:14:24):
How you doing Mark on the radio?

Speaker 1 (01:14:27):

Negro Nonsense is coming up. I've got movie news about
a movie that I think was probably one of the

(01:16:13):
worst films in the sense of displaying the human condition.
I want to talk about that a little bit. Also,
did I say Negro nonsense? This is this story is
bigger than just being a news item. It's so much

(01:16:34):
bigger than that, and I've got to get to like
what's going to happen as a result to this. You
all know about Paramount pretty much switching gears. Stephen Colbert
is gone. People are concerned about whether or not the
Daily Show is next. Well, something else was on the
chopping block and was announced yesterday.

Speaker 5 (01:16:53):
And I'm making a prediction.

Speaker 2 (01:16:58):
With this particular story that what's gonna happen, and it's
not a good thing. So we have to get into that. Yeah. Sorry,
back to ruh pastor, Jacob Dell. I really really hope
that this show and people on X who heard about

(01:17:21):
the police getting in touch with you, I hope that
that pressured them to stop this ridiculous investigation into you.
That was a tactic to bully you or to shut
you up. And I'm really really incensed by it. But
I'm glad that they sent you that message saying that
there was absolutely nothing in what you wrote that was

(01:17:43):
remotely criminal or a threat. It was embarrassing that they
would do that too. Anyway, let's get another check of
whether in traffic, Mike Ben's Matt Ben. Sorry, he's in
for Jason Catarina and Mark Chrismer.

Speaker 5 (01:17:59):

Speaker 5 (01:18:06):

Speaker 2 (01:18:09):
Word that the Connecticut Sentinel has the case number in
the investigation into Reverend Jacob Dell, and they're writing a
follow up story. And according to Reverend Dell, this came
directly from Attorney General William Tong. So stay tuned, follow

(01:18:30):
up with the Connecticut Sentinel. Of course, I'm following them,
so I'll have this story as soon as they do.
Also coming up, we are waiting for part two of
Project Veritas's investigation into former Attorney General William Barr Bill.

Speaker 5 (01:18:45):
Barr and Armstrong Williams.

Speaker 2 (01:18:47):
So the minute that that comes over, I will check
out that audio and play me sorry, probably play some
audio from it. Let's get to some phones eight's and
zero five two two WT. I see Donna's in Glassonbury. Hello, Donna, Hello,

Speaker 5 (01:19:07):
Okay, let's go.

Speaker 16 (01:19:09):
It was actually on Brian Shachman the end of Bryans
Show this morning, and it involves state. I believe he's
estate repped Doug McCrory from Hartford.

Speaker 2 (01:19:21):
Yes, we have been. We talked about that in the
beginning of the show. With involves a considerable amount of
money going to his alleged girlfriend.

Speaker 16 (01:19:32):
Yes, sans Cicero.

Speaker 5 (01:19:34):
Yes, how do you pronounce man?

Speaker 2 (01:19:37):
Donna?

Speaker 5 (01:19:37):
How are you pronouncing your name? Sansoray? Have I been
saying that right? It's sans Sansoray exactly?

Speaker 2 (01:19:44):
What is your take on all of this as far
as because we do know that there were some three
point five million dollars that was earmarked by Bloomenthal and
Murphy that hasn't been delivered.

Speaker 16 (01:19:58):
Yes, all I heard was when I I'm Brian's show
this morning. But I know that I would love to
talk to you off the air about this because there
are some other connections. They're interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:20:14):
Hold on, Donald, stay right there, don't go anywhere, hold
on for you real quick, all right.

Speaker 5 (01:20:19):
I just want to do this real quick. Do that, okay.

Speaker 2 (01:20:23):
I am going to during the next break, I'm going
to send you a text message to a number.

Speaker 5 (01:20:28):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:20:28):
I will send you a text message from a number.
It'll be a two zero two area code. You and
I will communicate there.

Speaker 16 (01:20:35):
All right, I can call you after six if you.

Speaker 2 (01:20:38):
Oh yeah, yodah, yoda. Absolutely, that's exactly what I want
you to do. Now, I'm assuming that this is in
some insider information that you cannot.

Speaker 5 (01:20:45):
Share or divulge. Well, I'd rather not understood. That's all
I need to know. Donald.

Speaker 16 (01:20:52):
We'll talk to you later, Okay, I'll talk to you.

Speaker 2 (01:20:56):
You got it? Thank you? All right, thank you, not
a problem.

Speaker 5 (01:20:59):
We will vet that info. I love my job. Sorry,
Let's go to Tom and Thomas.

Speaker 4 (01:21:05):
Then?

Speaker 2 (01:21:05):
How are you Thomas? Tom? You're there?

Speaker 14 (01:21:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:21:10):
Hey, what's going on that much?

Speaker 1 (01:21:13):
Uh?

Speaker 8 (01:21:13):
Hey?

Speaker 5 (01:21:14):
The guy?

Speaker 8 (01:21:15):
First, I want to say you always look out for
your people reef on radio people.

Speaker 2 (01:21:21):
You're damn right.

Speaker 8 (01:21:22):
I do every day. And I just caught the tail
end of Uh I can't the.

Speaker 2 (01:21:33):
Oh Pastor Dell story about Pastor Dell yesterday?

Speaker 8 (01:21:38):
Uh Long Island manor?

Speaker 2 (01:21:42):
Oh oh okay, did you listen to the replay of
my conversation with Sean Paul Sean.

Speaker 8 (01:21:47):
Paul, Well, I just I caught the tail end of it, okay,
And unfortunately, I think the only way he's going to
get addresses to do a sibling They're not going to
do anything. Uh, criminally, I just know they won't.

Speaker 2 (01:22:01):
Well, I'll go one step further and I'll let you
finish what I think he should do. And I think
that this is important to do, is get that tape,
get that video to a nationally syndicated show, and what
I mean not just radio, but on television. Because the
most important thing is as far as Connecticut operates in

(01:22:25):
this little space in the corner of the country that
they don't think anybody's paying attention to, we wouldn't be
seeing the crap that we're seeing if they didn't believe
that they could get away with half of his nonsense.

Speaker 5 (01:22:35):
Especially I mean, consider what happened in Bridgeport.

Speaker 2 (01:22:38):
That's a perfect example that once they were in the spotlight,
when once the cameras and the spotlight is on them,
they reverse course in a heartbeat because they don't want
that out in the public. They don't want that everywhere.
That's all he needs to do, and then people will act.

Speaker 8 (01:22:55):
I hope, I hope, I really hope it happens.

Speaker 4 (01:22:58):
Lurs.

Speaker 8 (01:22:58):
He exposed the bit and this is the biggest con
in the state of Connecticut. State employees being able to
pad their overtime in the last three to five years
to double sometimes double their pension, and the state state
official will say, oh, there's nothing we could do about it.

(01:23:20):
It's worked into their contract. Right, that's all bs because
they knew it. They allowed it because it was a
it was a bribe to say state employees both Democrat
and we will take care of you for life. That's
the true crime reason right there.

Speaker 2 (01:23:40):
I couldn't agree more. I'll tell you another part that again,
I think that sort of looking at what created this
as far as the level of which is where it's
gone so far with Sean Paul Rays and Brian Faie,
what really makes people And I'm surprised that no one
has said, look you, I mean not like guy's tactics,

(01:24:00):
but this is something I need to investigate. Two things
happen that freaked me out about that story. One it
was the implication that Brian Fahey may be receiving some
eighty five thousand dollars in overtime working at a desk job.

Speaker 5 (01:24:14):
That's one.

Speaker 2 (01:24:15):
But the second thing was in that tape when it ends,
when the altercation ends and Brian Fahee is walking away
after he reaches the cul des act with John Paul
Rays it's what he says to him after, and that
is it's more than that when he says when he
talks about him receiving overtime money, he brags and say

(01:24:39):
it's way more than that, which shows the degree of
arrogance coming out of Brian Fayes, which again would say
to me, what do you mean it's more than that?
Exactly how much money are you getting? Because he felt
like I could just say that on camera. What are
you going to do?

Speaker 8 (01:24:58):
Yeah, it's it's total arrogance. It's he's seen that probably
for ten fifteen years, and it's just like you know,
a new day at work.

Speaker 5 (01:25:07):
Ye, the way it's always done exactly exactly.

Speaker 8 (01:25:10):
Why are you? Why are you bothering me on my
front porch? We always do this kind of stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:25:15):
Yeah, it's incredible, Thank you, big guy. I appreciate you.

Speaker 5 (01:25:18):
Tom.

Speaker 2 (01:25:19):
Let's go to my friend Fred in Middletown. It doesn't
look like we're gonna live in Middletown, Fred. My wife
is no, No, it doesn't look like that.

Speaker 5 (01:25:27):
She is.

Speaker 2 (01:25:28):
She is looking.

Speaker 5 (01:25:30):
I got a meeting later on today.

Speaker 2 (01:25:34):
No, it's just we couldn't find anywhere and we're supposed
to be having this online chat with somebody in Manchester.
I used to live in Manchester, which I really did
like it wasn't that bad of a town. I don't
know how bad it is now or how good it
is now, but we're supposed to do an online call
with them later on today.

Speaker 10 (01:25:53):
Well, like Middletown has got that amazing mile wide main street,
you know.

Speaker 2 (01:25:59):
Yeah, it's if I could get Fountain Village across the
street from Wicker Park again, I would love it because
then I could fly my kite.

Speaker 10 (01:26:08):
Yeah, all right, I love that. So couples one down
from East Tartford is is Tim from Hamden and black Face.

Speaker 17 (01:26:22):
And you know what's he doesn't even call like you know,
he will only call the old white man, which.

Speaker 2 (01:26:29):
Is interesting, right, And you know what I think that's
about is this is Look, this has always been commonplace
whenever I decide to get into a bait with with
debate with people who are.

Speaker 5 (01:26:40):
On the left.

Speaker 2 (01:26:40):
And I love the fact that Tim at least takes
the you know, takes the old college try.

Speaker 5 (01:26:45):
He'll swing with you, he will, and that's good.

Speaker 2 (01:26:48):
And I love it. But the others just don't want
to come in because and I know it's because they
may they start to realize that they may be caught
in their own they may paint them sells into a corner.
And I get that too, So I don't mind. I
don't mind. It's no big deal.

Speaker 10 (01:27:06):
The other thing, I missed the four to five yesterday,
the interview with the guy, but I've been listening and
I came up to speed on it and from what
I got now real quick, going to do it to
a guy's house is rude, but that fighting fire with fire.
There's a time to use water and a time to
use fire. And I freaked someone out, like beating them
at their own game. So by being like aggressive and rude,

(01:27:29):
he just brought this guy out. And now you know,
we see, in the fullness of time, it was the
right thing.

Speaker 2 (01:27:35):
It was one of those things where I always say this,
and I've had this. I had this debate with with
with my ex wife, and it is very very simple.
I always say that, Look, if you're going to be
into be in a fight with someone and you want
to expose how wrong or how bad they are, the

(01:27:55):
only person who's going to make that happen, is you right?
If you're the good guy in that debate, you have
to before you have to perform as the good guy.
You can't turn around and say, well, the reason why
I punched him in the face is because he punched
me in the face.

Speaker 5 (01:28:09):
And I'm using that term figuratively.

Speaker 2 (01:28:12):
You have to in order if you're the victim in
all of this, you have to perform as the victim, right,
You've got to put your yeah, you have to you
have to martyr yourself. And this is there's a reason
why Sean, no matter what the criticisms of Saw and
Paul ray as there are, he was able to look
like the martyr here because of Brian Fahey's action coming

(01:28:34):
out of his house, speeding up to him getting in
his face, spitting in his face with a weapon, with
a firearm in his hand. It absolves Sean Paul Rays
in every possible way, and you almost feel like if
you take Faye's side on this, you almost have to
stretch the imagination because.

Speaker 5 (01:28:55):
It's on video.

Speaker 10 (01:28:58):
Yes, so just put yeah word a spearfisher, yes, middle Nameefisher.
And closing yesterday you were given credit to all the
people who've helped with the show. Yes, I tried for
a minute with the word coping.

Speaker 2 (01:29:12):
That you did and you always met you. I said,
I told you I was going to forget some people. Fred, Yes,
you are definitely one of them, and you did that.
You did it in a very very positive way, and
I've always loved you for it.

Speaker 17 (01:29:24):
I gave up though it was it was an exercise.

Speaker 2 (01:29:27):
Well, people started giving you crap about it. They were
coming to me. It's just like that, Fred is always
trying to correct. I'm like, no, no, no, I totally
I have been defend you because I was like, no,
he's not doing it in a malicious way.

Speaker 17 (01:29:39):
A real quick line on that.

Speaker 10 (01:29:41):
The people who love you don't care, that's right. Some
of them even consider it acute affectation. And the people
who hate you don't speak nearly as well as you do.

Speaker 4 (01:29:51):
There.

Speaker 2 (01:29:51):
It is, yeah, that that I can appreciate.

Speaker 5 (01:29:56):
Thank you, sir, much appreciate it. Gosh. Now I can
wait to talk to Donna. Now.

Speaker 2 (01:30:01):
I can't wait to find out what that's all about. Hey,
Fritz the cat, how are we doing, sir? Please send
Chrissy my love and congratulations to her. Let me see,
I've got uh, I've got some Yeah, I've got what
do I got coming up? I've got Negro nonsense coming up.
I've got Hollywood news coming up, so don't miss those things.

(01:30:22):
I'm probably going to extend negro nonsense to one whole
segment because there's something really really being untold about this
story that you may have heard about. We've got no
confirmation on Howard Stern whether or not it is indeed
true that his show is over with Koputs this year,

(01:30:42):
although there has not been a pushback from him on
that story. So I'm looking into that as well. Plus
we've got some other news and views to get into.
Stephen says the state of Connecticut is not run for
the citizens of the state, but it is a benefits
society for the state's workers.

Speaker 5 (01:31:03):
Yes, Stephen, without a doubt.

Speaker 2 (01:31:06):
Raymond says, I've never heard anyone claim Reese's words. We're
beating them up before you and I know him from
New York.

Speaker 5 (01:31:13):
That's right.

Speaker 2 (01:31:13):
Ray knows me very well. Right knows me very well.
And magic man, Ray, what else has it? God? I
got pretty much nothing else other than this stuff we
got coming up. Oh yeah, a fellow airlines, I promise
I was going to talk about that as well. So, Plus,
you know your phone calls at eight to zero five

(01:31:35):
two two WT. I see. Maybe I'll give what's her name,
Karen a call, see if I could get her on
today as well to talk about the new building when
that's going to be up and running in Torrington for
Friendly Hands Food Bank. I'll text her now, see if
I could get her on the line to at least
get an update. I don't want her to think that
I'm upset with her about you know that. I understand

(01:31:57):
getting the governor there was a big deal. You know,
it brings attention to it, getting the press there, and
I even said there was gonna be It sounds like
a little bit of friendly fire. But it's not on her.
She's doing God's work there. But the governor. I'm disappointed
in him, and as everybody should be. And if you're

(01:32:19):
an opponent to him. Aaron Stewart, who promised you'd be
on this show? Where's that at, Rachel?

Speaker 5 (01:32:27):
What's that? What happened?

Speaker 2 (01:32:28):
Rachel? Aaron gonna come on the program? Is Fozzio running?
I heard he might be running. I know he'll come
on the show. Has he announced yet? I gotta find
out if he's announced. Adam tell me whether or not
Fazzio is announced yet? I don't think I saw that,
but if he has, let me know. Fazzio will come
on the show talk to him about what he's getting

(01:32:49):
done and all that other good stuff. Oh yeah, Also,
I gotta make sure that I mentioned tomorrow's program from Newsmax.
And of course, resident of Greenwich, Connecticut, Carl Higbee will
be on the show tomorrow. His show here is at
five o'clock on Newsbacks, but he'll be here at three
point thirty tomorrow to talk about his show and a

(01:33:12):
whole bunch of other stuff going on in Connecticut.

Speaker 1 (01:33:15):
Stay locked in Locked Race on the radio is on
WTI see news.

Speaker 2 (01:33:23):
Yeah, Negro nonsense coming up in a little bit. We're
talking about anything and everything under the sun. We've also
got Hollywood News coming up, also talking about Avellow Airlines
and them taking it on the chin. Somebody told me
or somebody just about Salvatore. I'll just tell you who
it was. Salvatore just sent me a message. It says

(01:33:43):
that Fountain Village is a dump? Now is it really? Like?
What do you mean when you say it's a domp?
It wasn't that much of a place when I lived
there in two thousand and four.

Speaker 5 (01:33:55):
You know, it wasn't like I said. It wasn't.

Speaker 2 (01:33:59):
I'm not gonna say it was like luxury. It was
just an apartment. We were just trying to find a
place real quick fast, in a hurry, and we did.

Speaker 5 (01:34:08):
I mean, I thought it was nice enough. The neighbors
were nice enough.

Speaker 2 (01:34:13):
Our next door neighbor was a really really nice, nice family,
and I don't know, just I kind of enjoyed it there.

Speaker 5 (01:34:22):
I don't have this. I'm I'm nothing like my wife.

Speaker 2 (01:34:26):
Okay, my wife is very frufy and very high brow.

Speaker 5 (01:34:33):
I'm just a regular schmo. You know. I can live anywhere.
I don't have a preference.

Speaker 2 (01:34:39):
I don't want to live in the hood, don't get
me wrong, And I don't want to you know, bang
bank shoot them up neighborhoods, nothing like that.

Speaker 5 (01:34:45):
But I can live anywhere.

Speaker 2 (01:34:47):
I don't.

Speaker 5 (01:34:49):
I grew up with such poverty.

Speaker 2 (01:34:52):
Just having a place to live and lay my head
is enough. I can appreciate high brid out just as
much as low brow. So when someone says it's a dump,
it's nothing against you for calling it a dump.

Speaker 5 (01:35:07):
I just maybe my standards are just not as.

Speaker 2 (01:35:10):
High as everybody else. Do you have those standards at all. Roland, like,
are you a guy who can't live? Like, what's a
condition that you can't fathom place? I mean, I know
the obvious like roaches of rats. I'm with you then,
But as far as the conditions like in a community
are there, like if it's busy, if it's loud, like

(01:35:32):
I'll admit, I never want to live in a town
where I will hear police sirens and fire trucks sirens.
Again like New York was deluge of that stuff. I
don't want to live in a town like that. I
love quiet.

Speaker 3 (01:35:44):
You know how you watch the movie or TV show
and as person in the apartment and the train comes
and shake their house when it Yes, yes, I don't
want that either.

Speaker 2 (01:35:54):
No, okay, yeah, I will. You know what That's another thing,
train tracks and airports.

Speaker 5 (01:35:59):
I don't want to live near those.

Speaker 2 (01:36:02):
You do, Okay, So when you when a plane goes by, like,
how like can you see.

Speaker 3 (01:36:09):
I don't know, like it looks like a movie.

Speaker 2 (01:36:12):
Okay, so you can see inside the window? Isn't that bad?
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:36:21):
I'm just I just I don't want to.

Speaker 2 (01:36:24):
I'm not putting down New York, Raymond, although I hate it.
I'm not putting it down. I do. I hate New York,
but I know, Look, Raymond lives in East New York right,
which is one of the last places in New York
that's still New York right, East New York.

Speaker 5 (01:36:43):
I'll even say that parts of Bensonhurst art.

Speaker 2 (01:36:45):
But Raymond, you know that there are some places and
nothing against gentrification. Sometimes it could be a good thing
for a neighborhood, but there are some places where you
go that I aren't exactly New York New York anymore, right,
there are some places like that, and I'm not Again,
it's just not I'm a Manhattan guy. I've always been

(01:37:06):
a Manhattan guy. And Manhattan is not the way it
used to be. It just isn't. It's turned into a mess.
I'm an Upper east Side guy, never been an Upper
west Side guy. I don't care what anybody says. I'm
an Upper east Side guy. Let's get some weather in
traffic Jason bringing this out. So we got Matt Benz
and Mark Krismers in a BPS traffic center who's only

(01:37:28):
been in New York to visit.

Speaker 8 (01:37:29):
Will never live there, No, I have never lived there,
but it is it has there's no place like it
has such an incredible buzz.

Speaker 5 (01:37:37):
What's your favorite part of the city.

Speaker 2 (01:37:39):
If I had my favorite part when I was there
was Washington Square Park. It was my home.

Speaker 5 (01:37:43):
I loved Washington Square Park.

Speaker 2 (01:37:46):
It's where I I I feel like my formative years
as a twenty year old living in that era. I
was on MTV, I was dancing on MTV, on a
club MTV, and it was for me, the epicenter of
the entertainment world was Greenwich Village.

Speaker 5 (01:38:02):
I felt a love about that, no question about that.

Speaker 1 (01:38:05):
The self proclaimed love child of rush Limbaun A strange
program you already se on the radio on news Talk
ten Eady w T.

Speaker 5 (01:38:13):
I see it could happen. You know what time it is?

Speaker 9 (01:38:18):
Nonsense, nonsense, how damn you?

Speaker 2 (01:38:32):
That's why, folcus, it's time for Negro nonsense. And this
one I want to spend a little bit of time
with because there were some people online who were upset
about this, but I think they're upset for the wrong reasons.
It was announced yesterday that the Soul Train, the Soul
Train Music Awards, and the b E T Hip Hop

(01:38:53):
Awards and the BET Awards were going to be canceled.
Suspended even was the term that they used. But folks,
they're not coming back. I don't care what anyone says.
They're not coming back, aside from the fact that no
one is watching it, because that goes without saying. No
one even recognizes the groups and the people that are

(01:39:15):
being celebrated on either one of these award shows.

Speaker 5 (01:39:19):
They're just so many people within that genre.

Speaker 2 (01:39:22):
Not only that it has almost become a waste of
money for the network that owns both of those award
shows to put them on. With the waste of money involved,
But what is the downside of this. It's not that
kids in the hip hop community will not have an
award show that celebrates them.

Speaker 5 (01:39:43):
No, no, no, no, no, absolutely not.

Speaker 2 (01:39:47):
It's about what's gonna happen to other award shows to
make up for it.

Speaker 5 (01:39:52):
That's what's going to happen.

Speaker 2 (01:39:53):
Do you folks remember the Oscar so White controversy back
in the days, people protesting because they didn't have enough
people of color or enough diversity at the award shows. Well,
that's what is going to happen here, which will only
destroy those things. The American Music Awards, the Billboard Music Awards,
the Grammys, whatever, the awards show is the sag the

(01:40:14):
after whatever it's going to be.

Speaker 5 (01:40:16):
Those things are going to end up being destroyed.

Speaker 2 (01:40:19):
So this is the beginning of the end for people
patting themselves on their back in the arts, which is
also going to affect the arts which many people say
helps a lot of inner city kids or troubled kids.

Speaker 5 (01:40:31):
It's just going to give.

Speaker 2 (01:40:32):
This is another road by So do I want the
BET Awards and the Soul Train Music Awards to continue?
Of course not. It's a joke. No one cared about
it anyway. One of the things that used to drive
me crazy. Some ten years ago, I famously said, what
did you create these four in the first place that

(01:40:52):
you would be concerned about the Oscars or the Grammy
Awards being so white? What did you create the Soul
Train Music Awards for? What did you create the BET
Awards for? What did you create the n DOUBLEACP Awards for.
The reason why those three award shows were created, why
was because they didn't think they were being represented enough
in the mainstream awards. So we are going to honor ourselves.

(01:41:15):
That's what the purpose was. But what happened those weren't
enough and those people realized that nobody really wanted the
Soul Training Music Awards, no one really wanted to be
Et Awards, no one really wanted the NUBLEACP Awards. They
wanted the white stuff. They just did.

Speaker 5 (01:41:35):
Everybody knows that, and that's why we're here.

Speaker 2 (01:41:39):
And what's going to happen now that they no longer
have these They will come in, dear the others and
guess what, Just like the state of Connecticut, they'll bow,
they'll bend inn the and say, all right, whatever you want,
and then the entire thing will be messed up. The
entire thing will go by the wayside, and it'll be
over and we'll never have to deal with another reward

(01:42:00):
show ever.

Speaker 5 (01:42:00):
And I'm not gonna lie. I it pains me.

Speaker 2 (01:42:06):
That those award shows can't be the place where we
go and enjoy and celebrate music and celebrate the success
of the arts, no matter what it is. I don't
mean that. With the Tony Awards, I'm sorry, just I
could never get into those things, never could.

Speaker 5 (01:42:24):
But the other award shows, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:42:28):
I don't know if you are like me and you
missed the way it used to be with those Do
you remember the days when Billy Crystal used to host
those awards. Oh man, I live for his hosting of
the award show. It was fantastic. He puts so much
effort into it. It was singing, it was dancing, it

(01:42:48):
was funny. No one was offended. People had a blast.
The movies that you loved were being honored. It wasn't
about all his virtue signaling nonsense about movies that no
one watched, Movies that didn't do a million dollars at
the box office. We're getting these high praises. You know,

(01:43:09):
it was the last time a movie received the Best
Picture nom and win. You know, it was the last
one that deserved it, and it surprised everyone, and it
should have won. Anybody remember the movie Crash. That's the
last time I watched the awards. That was That was
the last time I watched it. When Jack Nicholson came
up to announce the winner of the Best Picture award,

(01:43:32):
and it shocked everyone that Crash won. And by the way,
if you've never seen that movie, go watch it now. Okay,
maybe not now, wait till the show's over. That movie
is so good. That's the last time. And I'll admit
there were some themes in there that may have been
a little bit left leaning, but it was.

Speaker 5 (01:43:51):
A great story.

Speaker 2 (01:43:55):
It's been a long time we've seen a movie where
everybody's life in the movie intertwines in some way. Such
great work. I think the guy's name is is Paul
Hymn's Hams something like that. Who either directed it or
I'm almost certain of it. But it was such a
great movie from beginning to end, and everybody who was

(01:44:16):
in it was just an upcoming Terrence Howard. You know
that that was the first movie we realized that he
cries in every scene. Tandy Newton, Matt Dillon, that's when
he was on his comeback after a was his name.
There's something about Mary that's part of his comeback tour.
Remember Mac Dylan had gotten in the game for a

(01:44:36):
long time. I mean, everybody in that movie was fantastic.
Brendan Fraser, Sondra Bullock, somebody don cheatle Ludacris was fantastic
in that movie. I didn't even know that kid kuldact.

(01:44:56):
I thought it was just some you know, overblown rapper,
but he it was great in that movie.

Speaker 5 (01:45:03):
I'll never forget that.

Speaker 2 (01:45:04):
I'm just everything about that movie was from beginning to
end with such a great movie. How it ends it
was Ryan Phillippy. I'm just now thinking of everybody who's
in this movie.

Speaker 1 (01:45:15):
Es.

Speaker 2 (01:45:15):
Their names are popping up as I'm watching the films,
like who did I forget? Who did I forget? It's
just that was the last time that it was. Crash
is one of my favorite movies. Carmela says, yes, and
it deserves to be one of your favorite movies. I
don't you know. I think Crash is the reason why,
and it probably no, it probably isn't, but Crash is

(01:45:37):
one of the reasons why if it was an ensemble cast,
I would go and see the movie because I was
hoping that I would. You know that the lightning would
strike twice. I missed that. Yeah, don Cheetah was in
that too. Yeah, I absolutely great movie. There's a great

(01:45:58):
scene in that between Don Cheatle and what's the uh
what's the actress's name? I can't remember, but she used
to be on Blue Bloods. It is a great scene
where Don Cheatle screws up her heritage about her Hispanic heritage,
and she corrects him and he's got a great line

(01:46:18):
in the movie. I won't say it here he's got it,
not because there's any cursing, because it's a bit sensitive.

Speaker 5 (01:46:24):
But it's a great line. It's in the beginning of
the film.

Speaker 2 (01:46:26):
It's hilarious, but it's it talks about stereotypes and behaviors.
It's just one of those movies that you can't you can't.
That was the last time I watched the Oscars. I'm
off it'll beat the path here, but I just I
don't know. But the Soul Train Music Awards and the
BET Awards, they say that they're suspended, but I know

(01:46:48):
it's canceled because it's of course a part of Paramount,
which of course got rid of Stephen Colbert. It's quite
likely the Daily Show is next on the chopping block.
We understand that the CBS Morning News is probably going
to lose some of its anchors, including Gail King. So
Paramount is doing a complete upheaval on anything that's hemorrhaging money.

Speaker 5 (01:47:10):
So it's probably not going to come back.

Speaker 2 (01:47:13):
So I don't expect the Woke Nightmare to end anytime soon.
So Jennifer Esposito, thank you, Julie, see'z right on it.
Let's go to Jeff and Marlborough.

Speaker 7 (01:47:22):
How are you, Jeff, ain't not bad reaches?

Speaker 13 (01:47:26):
How about you?

Speaker 5 (01:47:26):
Man, I'm trying my best, sir.

Speaker 7 (01:47:31):
Yeah. So, so these award two things, these awards shows,
I don't care if they're black or quote unquote white
or anything in between. I've never liked to watch them
because it just seems like a bunch of overpaid jerks
pissing each other.

Speaker 2 (01:47:48):
Well, I will admit that as a young person, I
didn't understand the idea of navel gazing and patting yourself
on the back. I really looked at it from an
ideal list stick in an idealistic way, because as a kid,
there was a glamour to it. As you know about this, Jeff,
I say it all the time. I grew up watching

(01:48:10):
two shows. Politically, I watched The McLauchlin Group, and then
entertainment wise, I watched The Lifestyles that are rich and famous.
Because when you're poor, you can't travel anywhere. Robin Leach
was taking you all around the globe. So I kind
of kind of lived vicariously through that show. So the celebrities, Yeah,

(01:48:31):
so the celebrities on that show, I kind of, you know,
developed a relationship with them in the sense of Oh,
I know him.

Speaker 5 (01:48:39):
Oh I watched that show. Oh, I love this this setting.

Speaker 2 (01:48:42):
I learned more about the globe and about about the
world that we live in and places that I had
never seen.

Speaker 5 (01:48:48):
I wasn't I was never jealous or envious.

Speaker 2 (01:48:51):
I celebrated these people who were in They were celebrities.
I understood that. So watching the Oscars and seeing someone
come up who showed them not so much as the
Red carpet, but people came on the screen to award
other people in their works.

Speaker 5 (01:49:07):
I took it for what it was worth.

Speaker 2 (01:49:08):
They were celebrating the acting career or the job of
that individual. I didn't really look at it from the
you know, bloviating celebrity was patting themselves on the button.

Speaker 7 (01:49:20):
Yeah, but it really is the other thing. I know,
you were talking about that movie. We were just talking
about a movie, Crash Crash. I've never seen it. Yeah,
I'll check it out. I was gonna give an honorable
mention to a movie that came out so long ago.

Speaker 17 (01:49:39):
I really like it.

Speaker 7 (01:49:40):
I had a ton of stars in it, some of
them even before they were stars. And I don't know
if it won any I don't know if it won
any awards. But Boogie Nights. It was like, it's like
an incredible movie that you know what.

Speaker 2 (01:49:53):
I did see that, and I will say, there are
a lot of stars in that movie. I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:49:58):
I don't know if I was. I'm a big fan
of that.

Speaker 2 (01:50:01):
Everyone was talking about it, of course because of it's
you know, it's explicit of a better word. But I
don't know. I really didn't.

Speaker 5 (01:50:10):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:50:10):
I didn't really understand like what the big rave was about.
I watched it because I was a movie watcher, but
I didn't walk away from him saying, Wow, what a
great film. Oh you know what it was. Let me
tell you, Jeff, I will tell you this. You know
what turned me off from that movie? And if I
if I'm right, Mark Wahlberg's character becomes a rock star
near the end.

Speaker 7 (01:50:29):
Right, well, no, he tries to be He.

Speaker 2 (01:50:33):
Tries to be right. He tries to be a rock star. Okay,
So this is what turned me off from the movie
because I knew. I knew this part in that film
and it really really annoyed me. So the song that
he sings in the movie where he's trying to be
a rock star turns out to be a song from
the nineteen eighty six cartoon film of Transformers, a song

(01:51:01):
called Yes it is a song called you Got the Touch?
And I remember that, that's right. I remember how outraged
I was that they were putting that song in this movie,
because that is the title track from the Transformer movie
at the near the end, when when hot Rod finally
gets the the worst name the Matrix, the Power of

(01:51:24):
the Matrix, And that's the song that they play and
Mark Wahlberg sings it in Boogie Nights.

Speaker 13 (01:51:30):
I did not know that one.

Speaker 2 (01:51:32):
I know. Don't get me. I told you I'm the
worst person when it comes to this movie thing. I
just my wealth of knowledge in the genre kind of
is embarrassing for me.

Speaker 5 (01:51:43):
Sometimes it just is.

Speaker 7 (01:51:46):
You gotta say, though, even if you remember the movie
a little bit, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Don Cheetle were
in there, like before they were like really really fair.

Speaker 5 (01:51:54):
Oh yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 7 (01:51:58):
They were both like wicked awesome in that movie.

Speaker 2 (01:52:00):
They are they look I still to this day, I
still think Philip Seymour Hoften what a wasted talent. I
missed that guy because he was really really good in
anything he did. Uh, he just and he played that
bad guy in the Mission Impossible movie, and he was believable,
you know, as a short, pudgy, blonde haired guy as
a bad guy. He pulled it off, which again is

(01:52:22):
a testament to his acting chops. So yeah, I miss him.
It's that there, it is. Thank you, Jeff, I appreciate you.
Let's get a check in the weather in traffic when
Matt Bens filling in for Jason Calerina and Mark Christopers
in a BPS traffic center.

Speaker 5 (01:52:39):
There's the song you Got the Touch.

Speaker 1 (01:52:44):
The hour that bags out Punch Punch. It's Reese on
the radio on w t i S News Talk ten eighty.

Speaker 2 (01:52:52):
Well, I mean, I think it's only fair keep him
with the Hollywood theme in the Hollywood News today. I
watched this.

Speaker 18 (01:53:03):
Film, and I think it's appropriate only to mention it
for this reason. You know how they say Donald Trump
is gonna invade Greenland, Well, this movie is actually called Greenland.

Speaker 2 (01:53:19):
Now, please Roland, I know that you had to have
seen this movie. It's a disaster film. Have you seen
the movie Greenland or even heard of it? I've never
seen it, Okay, but you hear yeah, yeah, So Greenland,
of course is this film that it stars Gerard Butler.

Speaker 5 (01:53:35):
It is a disaster film.

Speaker 2 (01:53:37):
There's a media of course, supposed to be hurling towards Earth,
and people need to get as far as the way
they possibly can and go to Greenland. Now, why why
is this movie even important? Well, they're gonna make a
sequel to it, and the film is about sort of
like the aftermath, right when you're in this dystopian place
after the fact.

Speaker 5 (01:53:55):
But the movie Greenland is so bad.

Speaker 2 (01:53:58):
And when I say bad, not bad the sense of
poor acting, you, no ridiculous plot, none of that. The
movie is made to show the most deplorable in all
of us.

Speaker 5 (01:54:11):
I watch this movie and you can root for no.

Speaker 2 (01:54:14):
One at least in Independence Day what's the other one
day after Tomorrow? Arm Again, there are heroes, there are
good guys in this way Greenland, this movie, everybody is scum,
even Gerard Butler. That the things that people are willing

(01:54:34):
to do. Because in a part of the movie, I
will explain this only because so in order for you
to make it the Greenland, you have to be a
part of a lottery. And if you make it in
a lottery, your closest family members can can get in.

Speaker 5 (01:54:48):
And what's crazy is Gerard.

Speaker 2 (01:54:50):
Butler's son is on the lottery, so his his wife
and his is why his mother and father can come
with him, and they're all together the other when all
of the alerts and you see people in a way
that is absolutely the most despicable, the.

Speaker 5 (01:55:08):
Way which people behave.

Speaker 2 (01:55:09):
There is even one scene where someone trying to save
their own life kidnaps the boy. That's how bad it is.
Just everybody in the movie, everyone you meet is come
and I've never seen anything like. At the end of
the movie, I felt dirty. I was like, what is
going on here? It's just not one person was redeemable

(01:55:31):
at all. And at the end, I just when I
felt oh, I felt disgusted in humanity. And so they're
making a sequel, which only makes sense now that I'm
looking at it. I'm going, yeah, of course we should
make a sequel to this travesty. But if you do,
go check it out, if you're interested, and get back to.

Speaker 5 (01:55:46):
Me and tell me what you thought. I just had
to make.

Speaker 2 (01:55:49):
It's really really that bad, and they're making a sequel
that I'm saying to myself, can I watch that kind
of deplorable behavior again? Yep, of course, I'm all.

Speaker 1 (01:55:58):
In grease on the radio, is getting ready to drop
some knowledge on w T I see news.

Speaker 2 (01:56:09):
I just saw somebody's gotten in the chat room, Michael
A says that Gail King would she leaves CBS.

Speaker 5 (01:56:16):
She's gonna go work for NASA. Katie Perry too.

Speaker 2 (01:56:22):
Also, Steve says the best thing about the Award Award
shows was Joan Rivers doing a play by play for
those walking down the red carpet.

Speaker 5 (01:56:29):
I think was what was it? What watch? What happened?

Speaker 2 (01:56:31):
No? Now, goodness, gracious, I can't remember what that show was,
but yeah, you're right, Joan Rivers, she's a treasure.

Speaker 5 (01:56:37):
I missed that woman. God. One of the funniest comedians around.

Speaker 2 (01:56:41):
And I mean comedians, I mean male or female, definitely
without a doubt. Let's go to Fulton real quick before
we go into the Vello story.

Speaker 5 (01:56:48):
What's going on Fulton? Fulton?

Speaker 2 (01:56:53):
Okay, maybe not, that's all right, Maybe don't hold too
long so the novella story. Listen to this.

Speaker 5 (01:57:01):
These are the attacks on a Velo airlines.

Speaker 2 (01:57:03):
Now, I don't know if you know this, but I
looked at some of the numbers on what people spend
at a Velo in order to fly across the country.
Some of these rates are like under one hundred dollars.

(01:57:25):
This is a really inexpensive airline, and they go to
I mean, I guess almost anywhere. But to be an
inexpensive airline where everything cost everything, you would think that
you wouldn't try to intimidate this business out of business.

(01:57:50):
But listen to some of the criticism, this one from
Dick Blumenthal. Bloomenthal has been one of the most vocal critics,
publicly condemning a Vello at pro test and in statements
for prioritizing profits over principles, profits over principles.

Speaker 5 (01:58:08):
They've got flights as.

Speaker 2 (01:58:09):
Low as one hundred and twenty five dollars. They're prioritizing
profits over principles. And in April twenty twenty five protests
in New Haven, he stated to the president of a Vello,
you really stepped in it. You made a bad decision,
emphasizing the airline's role in what he called inhumane deportations.

(01:58:31):
He joined other lawmakers in demanding transparency from a Vello
about the ice contract and spoke at rallies highlighting safety
concerns for detainees on such flights, referencing reports of shackled passengers. Okay,
this one from Ned Lamont and also Attorney General William

(01:58:52):
tom Governor Lamont criticized a Velo for the deportation flights
that was in April of twenty twenty five, stating it
was exploring alternatives to its subsidies for the airline due
to local pressure. His office faced calls from activists to
end tax exemptions, with one Facebook post urging residents to
contact state officials about the Avelo aviation fuel tax exemption,

(01:59:16):
which I understand that they're thinking about doing.

Speaker 1 (01:59:21):
This.

Speaker 5 (01:59:22):
What else was there?

Speaker 2 (01:59:22):
William Tong threatened to cut state tax breaks and subsidies
if Avello continued the Ice partnership, accusing it of policy
disputes that endanger jobs and families. Again, an airline that
gives you fares as low as one hundred and twenty
five dollars, how much did it cost you to fly
the last time? My flight to Connecticut is going to

(01:59:47):
cost me a little over seven hundred dollars.

Speaker 5 (01:59:51):
Yes, that's both ways. Yes, I will admit that.

Speaker 2 (01:59:55):
Alex Padilla, you remember him, Senator Alex Padilla, the guy
who nobody knew until he tried to run up on Christino.
He slammed a Vello in May for the deportation flights,
demanding transparency. Alongside Blumenthal, he criticized the airlines participating in
what he described as illegal and immoral. Nothing they're doing

(02:00:15):
is illegal, nothing, not a damn thing. And again, cheap airlines,
people who can't afford to fly all across the country
go to Avelo when they fly them on, I don't
hear anybody talking about their safety rec and I don't
even hear anybody talking about the good they do for

(02:00:38):
people who can not afford to fly on every other
commercial airline. Nothing. New York State Senator pat fahey Fahi
described a Vello's deportation flights as inhumane and contrary to
American values. During a July twenty twenty five protest outside
Alberity International Airport, where Avello operates. She joined critics and

(02:00:59):
calling for an end to the state collaborate collaboration with
the airline. Why how does that help people in Albany?
And again, no one even bothers to ask them hello,
The service these folks are providing is for low income

(02:01:20):
folks to fly across the country.

Speaker 5 (02:01:22):
Why would you really.

Speaker 2 (02:01:27):
Other notable contexts that you see Broader Boycott's petitions signed
by thousands. They were amplified by positions like a physicians,
sorry of politicians like those in Maryland Governor Wes Moore
he wants to end a Vellows ties with Baltimore Washington Airport.

(02:01:48):
Josh Harley has criticized the airline and general port women.
Who really Josh Harley has criticized them. Oh, that's just
for their service and fees. Okay, well, that's okay. I'm
not gonna lie you if they're charging people for fees,
while of course, like if they're charging them one hundred
and twenty five dollars for the flight and then charging
them one hundred dollars for bags, yeah, of course you

(02:02:10):
criticize that if that's what they're doing. Lord knows, that's
what they're doing on a lot of other airlines. I
don't want to say any names.

Speaker 5 (02:02:16):
Don't want to say any names.

Speaker 2 (02:02:19):
You know who they are, You know who they are,
just saying but yeah, but I'm trying to figure out
they're working with the federal government.

Speaker 5 (02:02:29):
If I'm the CEO of a Vello, I would.

Speaker 2 (02:02:32):
Be saying, hey, President Trump can get a hand here.

Speaker 5 (02:02:39):
Anything somebody make a statement.

Speaker 2 (02:02:42):
These folks are trying to put an into my business
and telling people not to use my airlines. People are
trying to shut me down because I'm working with you.
And look, I don't again, you could boycott it all day.
But Tesla's feeling it. I don't think that that. I
think that's gonna die down. I think Tesla's going to
be back in the running and very soon. But but

(02:03:05):
a Vello for what they provide. Look, I will say
this until the cows come home. You've got an airline
that has affordable flights. You got to protect that. You
just do. Even people who don't agree with Donald Trump
agree with paying less.

Speaker 5 (02:03:24):
For airfare, They just do.

Speaker 15 (02:03:29):
So.

Speaker 2 (02:03:29):
Kolowski says, jets run on compressed air. They just need
fuel to get going. Says, I have I have flow.
I've flown. I'm sorry, my apologies, Dug. I've flown a
Vellow four times, no issues. There was a return flight
issue from Orlando to Connecticut. But it is what it is. Yeah,
you know, you get what you pay for. Southwest was

(02:03:51):
my go to before and now he flies a Vellow.

Speaker 5 (02:03:54):
Dug says business is about money, not feelings.

Speaker 2 (02:03:58):
Yeah, but again, I'm I My first deal would be
contacting the White House and saying, look at what they're
doing to me, and if it is affecting my bottom line,
you know, I would maybe up the contract with the
federal government.

Speaker 5 (02:04:13):
I was like, oh, you know, we're gonna need a
couple of more dollars to make up for this.

Speaker 2 (02:04:16):
But instead of doing that, right, you know, providing more
flights in order to make up for the losses.

Speaker 5 (02:04:25):
They should be coming to their defense.

Speaker 2 (02:04:28):
And I don't. I really don't believe that a Vello
should stay quiet. Somebody said because of the expansion at
Tweed that they don't want to ruffle any feathers. Well,
what good is it going to do if they run
you out of town? That's the part I can't seem

(02:04:48):
to understand. If they're running out of town, who cares
about the expansion?

Speaker 5 (02:04:53):
Now? If I'm not gonna lie, I would not.

Speaker 2 (02:04:56):
Do business with Connecticut if that were the case, especially
if I have, like if I've got the attorney general,
I've got senators state and national senators showing up at protests,
I got the governor of the state coming after me,
Why would I do business with them? Get the hell

(02:05:17):
out of Dodge. I'm done forget you people. Sorry, folks
can't do business with you. Maybe talk to your governor,
Maybe talk to the attorney general. Tweet as a history
of running companies. Way, Yeah, yeah, I heard that too, Doug.
I heard that too. They don't seem to care. So
what are you gonna do. Let's go to Steve ev

(02:05:39):
what's up, buddy?

Speaker 8 (02:05:41):
Hey with the Biden administration, the Obama administration, what did
they do when they deport to legals? Did they have
them walk?

Speaker 2 (02:05:48):
Yeah? Well it turns out that a Vello worked with
the Biden administration just a few years ago.

Speaker 5 (02:05:54):
No one had an issue.

Speaker 13 (02:05:56):
Yeah, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2 (02:05:58):
And again that's the whole part is that I would
be making that clear. But a Vello seems to be
incredibly silent about this.

Speaker 5 (02:06:06):
M It just doesn't make sense.

Speaker 10 (02:06:11):
It certainly does.

Speaker 8 (02:06:12):
I mean they're missing the vote on that one, no
pun intended.

Speaker 2 (02:06:15):
Yeah, yeah, I mean they should.

Speaker 5 (02:06:18):
They should fight really really hard and push back.

Speaker 2 (02:06:21):
In fact, even release a statement, uh to tell these folks,
you know, take a walk, or appeal to the people
in Connecticut and say, hey man, we're trying to do
you guys a favor. And these guys want to run
us out of town and make it pay higher prices, and.

Speaker 5 (02:06:38):
I would ask for that pushback.

Speaker 2 (02:06:40):
That's what I would do.

Speaker 5 (02:06:41):
Thank you, Stevie, I appreciate you. Sir.

Speaker 2 (02:06:44):
Yeah, I mean that's what I would do. You got
to incorporate these folks. Henry says a Vello is cheap,
but too high. Occurrence of canceled flights at the last minute.

Speaker 5 (02:06:57):
Okay, I can understand that is it.

Speaker 2 (02:06:59):
But I will ask you this, Henry, if you could,
maybe you know, you can tell me this are the
cancelations due to maintenance or weather? Because if its weather,
I can understand it. If it's maintenance, then that's another
issue because they've got to work that out. But you know,

(02:07:20):
as Doug said, you know, it is what you you know,
it's kind of you get what you paid for. In fact,
I think this is Doug. Here is this same Doug?

Speaker 1 (02:07:28):
Yes it is.

Speaker 5 (02:07:29):
Hey, what's going on, sir?

Speaker 4 (02:07:31):
I just want to comment on the topic at hands.

Speaker 5 (02:07:34):
Yes, sir, Yes, go ahead, I'm listening.

Speaker 4 (02:07:40):
I mean, the the issue is is that like the
federal government is trying to like manipulate the dollar amounts
and everybody is in a panic about like where the
funding is going to come from, because everybody is worried
about where the funding.

Speaker 7 (02:07:57):
Is going to come from.

Speaker 4 (02:07:58):
Like I work under the federal govern and we're just
we're just seeing like a monstrosity of panic.

Speaker 5 (02:08:08):
Well, everybody's worried about whether or not their contracts are
going to get pulled.

Speaker 4 (02:08:12):
Yes, And the thing is is that like for us,
like where I work, our contract is good until June
of twenty twenty six.

Speaker 5 (02:08:23):
Okay, that's not a long time.

Speaker 4 (02:08:26):
It's it's really not. So everybody is in a panic,
and it's it's wild to see because what I find
is that people don't like kind of read and like
look into the information to see like what's going on.
Like I know where I'm at, Like I know I
have about a year left, maybe two years of what

(02:08:50):
I can do in my job capacity. Again, I'm a
plumbing contractor, like I have. I have a lot of options,
so I'm not worried about it.

Speaker 5 (02:09:00):
Yeah, you're your job's recession proof.

Speaker 2 (02:09:04):
Yes, and no, Okay, a lot of companies aren't hiring
right now, oh okay.

Speaker 4 (02:09:09):
Because they're worried about the economics behind it. So it's
kind of like what I'm dealing with right now, it's
like I'm dealing with the problem of trying to place
new guys who are trying to.

Speaker 7 (02:09:21):
Get out there and get to work right who want
to work.

Speaker 2 (02:09:24):
Well, let me let me ask you this, Doug. Let
me let me ask you this, because you're dealing with Okay,
so you have a guideline right now, or at least
you have a guard rail. You understand that the contracts
over in June of twenty twenty six. When do you
start weighing your options on where your next gig is

(02:09:45):
or do you know, like an extension, like when will
you know whether or not that twenty twenty six is
the deadline or if it's extended to twenty twenty seven,
how much between the end of the contract you know
before you know or but when the end of a
contract happens.

Speaker 4 (02:10:02):
So somebody like me, which I'm very involved in politics,
which is why I listen to your show. I mean
you bring up like listen you know me.

Speaker 7 (02:10:13):
I've sent you messages.

Speaker 4 (02:10:14):
Yes, sir, I am very interested in what goes on
publicly for the people, like in the state of Connecticut,
and I work for the State of Connecticut, even if
it's on.

Speaker 7 (02:10:27):
A federal level.

Speaker 4 (02:10:29):
And I'm proud of what I can do for my students.
That being said, I can't control how other people like
manipulate the money and like I don't know back me yea.

Speaker 7 (02:10:44):
So it's tough. It's like I'm trying to do the right.

Speaker 4 (02:10:48):
Thing, but at the same time, I'm getting slapped in
the face.

Speaker 5 (02:10:53):
It really puts you in a position where you have
to protect yourself.

Speaker 4 (02:10:56):
Well, it's tough because the Trump administration, Like as much
as I'm a Trump voter, but I will say this,
they are not helping us right now.

Speaker 2 (02:11:06):
Okay, you know what, Doug, Because I hold on because
I have to go to a break. I want to
hear a little bit more about that, because that's it
is a downside. Not everybody is satisfied with the Trump
administration because of all the cuts to the federal you know,
as far as federal funds.

Speaker 4 (02:11:20):
Are concerned, Not everything is rainbows.

Speaker 2 (02:11:23):
Yeah, absolutely, stand by. I'm gonna get to you in
a second. We're gonna put you on the hold and
we and we'll talk to you a little bit more
on the other side. All right, stand by, we'll be
back in a minute. Let's get to some weather and
traffic with Matt Benz, who's in for Jason Calerina and
Mark Christophers at the BPS Traffick Center.

Speaker 1 (02:11:38):
The Odyssey app lets you jump back to the moments

Speaker 2 (02:11:50):
Well, if you didn't know any you didn't hear Tomorrow
at three point thirty, we are going to be joined
by Carl Higbee of Newsmax, so make sure that you
check out the show tomorrow. Car we'll talk to him,
of course about his Newsmax program. We'll talk about his
coverage of the d quad issue. He's the only national
host to do, so we'll talk to him about that,
and of course about his roots here in Connecticut.

Speaker 14 (02:12:13):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (02:12:13):
I think he's from Greenwich. Uh wow, you know what.

Speaker 2 (02:12:17):
I forget now, But anyway, he's uh, he's native. So
we'll talk to him about what he's covering and some
of the stories that he may not have been covering,
may not be covering in the city of Connecticut.

Speaker 5 (02:12:28):
We'll talk to him about all of that as well.

Speaker 2 (02:12:30):
Tomorrow. Let's get back to Doug real quick, so Doug,
you were saying that, you know, Donald Trump's administration has
not always been beneficial to a lot of folks, especially
those who work with government contracts.

Speaker 5 (02:12:42):
But I was asking you earlier, like, at what.

Speaker 2 (02:12:45):
Point, since you know your contract is ending in twenty
six June of twenty six, which is now a little
less than a year, when will you know that you've
got a contract extension? Will it be up to the
last minute? We have six months what's usually the gauge.

Speaker 4 (02:13:03):
So it's gonna be a responsive on us.

Speaker 7 (02:13:06):
So, like I've been following the court cases.

Speaker 11 (02:13:10):
Like Judge Carter is out of the South District of
New York, and I've been following that court case as
well as the court case out of DC where there's
seven students that are suing Job Corps for a civil latter.

Speaker 7 (02:13:27):
So it's about being educated, really, Like you and I
talked on the sidebar, like outside of your show about
like what's going on with job Corps and stuff, and
it's like Job Corps is getting like a bad rep
and I don't think it deserves it. I think it's

(02:13:48):
a really good program. And somebody like.

Speaker 4 (02:13:51):
Me who's been teaching plumbing for twenty five years, and
I have all these students who are doing real well,
like they're making a great money, they're out there like
working in the field.

Speaker 7 (02:14:08):
I really am just upset that job cor is just getting.

Speaker 5 (02:14:13):
A bad rep maybe maybe what to like. Yeah, but
that's because look, I and that that I know.

Speaker 2 (02:14:23):
I will admit that that the common uh theme or
refrain about job Corps is that it caters in a
sort of group home, very very ghetto in urban way,
but it does a lot more than that, which you
and I are going to have a discussion about that soon.

Speaker 5 (02:14:39):
What I would want to do is.

Speaker 4 (02:14:41):
I would love for you to come down and visit.

Speaker 2 (02:14:43):
I am going to trust me, without a doubt. I'm
going to make sure that I do one because you know,
now that you know it's official in recent radio, is
going to be here. What I will do is I
will get the right people paying attention to this that
haven't been paying attention to it as of late. And
I promise you that, but you and I gonna we're
gonna have you.

Speaker 4 (02:15:04):
And I know the same people.

Speaker 7 (02:15:05):
So okay, it's not like we can't make it happen.

Speaker 2 (02:15:08):
Absolutely absolutely, I'll.

Speaker 7 (02:15:10):
Be very very upfront that Job Corps.

Speaker 4 (02:15:13):
Is a place for people who need a second champion.

Speaker 2 (02:15:18):
Absolutely work, Like Doug, let me get about.

Speaker 7 (02:15:21):
Them being a bad person. It's about them not like
being able to do what high school try to make
them work.

Speaker 2 (02:15:29):
I totally get it. Don't worry. We're gonna We're gonna
have our discussion about it.

Speaker 5 (02:15:32):
I promise you and I will talk privately. Let's get
weather and traffic in here. Matt Ben's in for Jason
klerin and Mark Christopher's in the BPS traffic center. What's up, everybody?
You know who it is?

Speaker 2 (02:15:42):
Who is you know who? It's rest on the radio,
Frederick Douglass of the twenty first century.

Speaker 1 (02:15:48):
It's w t i.

Speaker 2 (02:15:49):
C News Talk. I'm actually in the process of posting
the Connecticut Sentinels article about Reverend Dell and the investigation
into his silence equals death tweet and why the police
were called in which, according to the Connecticut Sentinel, came

(02:16:10):
directly from William Tong's office. Can't can't talk to the guy,
can't respond to the letter that went directly to his office,
but can definitely call the cops on.

Speaker 5 (02:16:21):
Him, flagging him down. It's it's despicable.

Speaker 2 (02:16:25):
It's again, it's It's exactly where we are in so
many different places. Just people just don't have the they
don't want to be questioned. They just don't They want
to be able to behave anyway they want to, and
they've been told that it's okay. And when you confront them,

(02:16:48):
as you saw in the video which Jean Paul Ray
is when he tried to talk to Governor Lamont, had
nothing to say, felt like he was being like he
was annoyed saying it.

Speaker 5 (02:17:00):
You're not doing any favors for yourself.

Speaker 2 (02:17:03):
Really, coming from the guy who believes that it's his
job to take care of everybody, especially illegals, you're not
doing any favors for yourself.

Speaker 5 (02:17:11):
Really, that's your job.

Speaker 2 (02:17:14):
Your entire party, like the like literally the mission statement
of your party is to do everything for everybody else.
Got a person who's got a problem, and that's and
the weirdest part about it is, think about this on
the Lamont front as it as it pertains to the
police department. This is a guy who was gung ho

(02:17:39):
so ahead of his skis when it came to that
bogus ticketing scandal.

Speaker 5 (02:17:45):
Remember that whose side was he on.

Speaker 2 (02:17:49):
When Black Lives Matter was losing their collective minds over
this so called ticket scandal. Who was the guy throwing
the police department in the state Troopers under the bus?

Speaker 9 (02:18:00):
Uh?

Speaker 5 (02:18:00):
Anybody bueller?

Speaker 2 (02:18:04):
That's right, Ned Lamont Oakley docally himself? Who was the
guy who was throwing the police department under the bus.

Speaker 5 (02:18:18):
While fifteen hundred maybe twelve hundred miles away.

Speaker 2 (02:18:23):
A young crackhead, well at older crackhead died. Who was
the guy who was throwing the police department in Connecticut
under the bus? Had nothing to do with that crackhead's death? Yeah,
that's right, Oakley docally, sure enough. And then here he's

(02:18:48):
got a videotape in his own backyard, and the guy
has the nerve to tell the guy, Eh, you're not
doing you're not doing yourself any favors. Bozos, all of them,
I tell you, bozos. And what are they gonna say?
They got nothing to say. What are you gonna do?

(02:19:10):
Get upset? Cry moan that they're being picked on? Get
out of office. You can't handle a tough question, You
can't handle a little bit of pushback because you've ignored
the things that are important.

Speaker 5 (02:19:30):
To the people here. Get out of Get out of
the job.

Speaker 3 (02:19:34):
Just leave.

Speaker 2 (02:19:34):
What are you doing here? I mean, look, nothing against
Reverend Dell. I don't know if he can knock a
sucker out, but for crying out loud. I would give
that guy the benefit of the doubt. He's a man
at a cloth. You think that you would look at

(02:19:56):
that guy and his history in the state of Connecticut,
you would think to yourself, Yeah, that guy looks like
an active, violent person. Knock it off. The guy sent
you several letters, several don't even address him, but you
let everybody know that you clearly got the message. You

(02:20:18):
would clearly paying attention. Think about that, folks. I want
to think about this from this perspective. Reverend Dell sent
him a letter to his office, a letter that William
tong did not, has not and will not respond to,

(02:20:43):
but took took it upon himself to be monitoring Reverend
Dell's Twitter feed and scoped out what he suggested was
quote unquote threatening language and called the cops on him,

(02:21:06):
which where I come from, says William Tongue was paying attention.
William Tongue did get the letter, William Tongue did read
the letter, and because he didn't like what was written,
in the letter because in some way, his pretty little

(02:21:27):
feelings were hyped, his poor widow feelings were affected. He
called the cops at the first sign that he could use,
the first notion he could use against Pastor Dell, so
he can send a message, don't you be talking about me.

(02:21:49):
Don't you send me any letters trying to intimidate me
doing my job. Well, I'll call the cops on you.
And you wonder why people are calling you a clown?
You wonder why you're being criticized. Grow a spine, Lamont
you too, grow a spine. No one's gonna take you seriously.

(02:22:15):
We just can't that this is ridiculous that anybody has
to beg you to just respond, just say okay, I
disagree with you. And here's why. It's just it's it's maddening.
It's maddening, and nobody just again. I just every you

(02:22:37):
should all be ashamed of these public officials. All of
you should be. And I know there's a lot of
people just gonna shrug their shoulders and just come yeah, Reese,
that's just the way that it goes.

Speaker 5 (02:22:48):
I refuse, I refuse.

Speaker 2 (02:22:52):
Maybe I'm getting my back up, Maybe I'm annoyed maybe
I'm I don't know, Maybe I just like trouble. I
don't do. Look at these folks. Look at what they're
willing to do. Look at what half of these morons
are willing to do for what they believe in, misguided idiots.
Look at what they're willing to do. These folks will

(02:23:15):
glue their hands to a Starbuck counter or to an
asphalt road for the ridiculous things that they believe in.

Speaker 5 (02:23:26):
No offense. Our side just goes. That is just the
way it is.

Speaker 2 (02:23:29):
I can't. I can't do it anymore. I just can't.

Speaker 5 (02:23:32):
It frustrates me every day. It's the reason why I
have dreams about it.

Speaker 2 (02:23:35):
I wake up every morning say to myself, Damn, I
can't get there sooner. I can't.

Speaker 5 (02:23:44):
It's just like.

Speaker 2 (02:23:46):
I'm in this position where I'm saying to myself, I can't,
and I know looking the folks that at this network
take they can't wait for me to get up there
because they know I know that they're, you know, have
some bail money ready. I promise I won't do anything crazy.
I'm not gonna protest, I'm not gonna glue myself to anything.

(02:24:08):
But I'm gonna ask questions. I'm gonna demand answers anything.
There won't be any of this nonsense about well, dude,
you're creating a problem for yourself. Not gonna take that
for an answer. The rest of those guys who are
not gonna do their job and just sit up there
with being stenographers.

Speaker 5 (02:24:28):
What did you say, sir? I think I missed a sentence.
Say that again, what is it? Let them do that,
Let them do all of that. I've got.

Speaker 2 (02:24:42):
And with the help of a lot of people, and
I know they are, and I know who you are.
There are a lot of people in Connecticut who are
waiting for the opportunity to get together an army of
true journalists that are gonna show up at places and
answer questions and hold people accountable. We know that in
answer story that's out now, go look it up. I
think Mark even posted it. There's an article out there

(02:25:05):
that says that you know, some seventy five percent of
journalists have just disappeared. They're just gone, and there aren't
any journalists in one particular town. I think they've got
this whole map where it shows every place in the
country telling how many journalists for I guess one hundred

(02:25:27):
thousand people. I think New Haven has two journalists for
one hundred thousand per one hundred thousand, and you wonder,
it's like, why why aren't they covering any of your stuff?
Because they don't have the manpower. They've ignored all of
the stories that matter. No one trusts them, nobody. How

(02:25:48):
is it possible that a newspaper, the oldest newspaper, the
Hartford Kurrent, has only ninety thousand subscribers. How is that
possible in a state that's got three point six million.

Speaker 5 (02:25:59):
How's that possible?

Speaker 2 (02:26:04):
Because they turned into the one thing that they shouldn't have,
and that is I don't know, my numb robots. I
don't know if it's the newsroom. I don't know if
it's the culture. I don't even know what it is.
But they're not working for you anymore, and I'm not
taking on any extra pay to do it.

Speaker 5 (02:26:26):
I just want answers, and I know that we're gonna
get them. Gosh, I hate the go on a.

Speaker 2 (02:26:30):
Diet tribe, but it's in the end of the show
and I gotta get out of here. You gotta call Donna. Plus,
I got some other stuff that I need to do.
I'll probably do that first before I go, Donna, don't forget.
Tomorrow we got Carl Higbee of Newsmax. We'll talk about
all of this and much much more. Project Veritas is
still not released this darn thing. I'm still waiting for
them to do it. I cannot believe they didn't do
it before the show was over. I'm really really upset

(02:26:52):
with them today. Oh is it? Oh yep, But just
look at that. It just posted Sons of brain Surgeon.
It just posted four minutes ago. Damn you people. I
was holding out. I really really thought they were gonna
be here. Michael Ay says, suing Donald Trump gets more

(02:27:14):
cameras on him than saving children. You one hundred percent
right about that, my friend, one right about that.

Speaker 5 (02:27:23):
Damn sure. I ain't interested in getting Alvira any justice.

Speaker 2 (02:27:27):
That isn't going to do. By the way, I do
understand how Vira does listen to the show. So, by
the way, my dear, if you are listening, can't wait
to get you on the program. I don't care when
you want to do it. I know you're not particularly
ready to, but when you want to, please come on
the program. You have my number. Please contact me as
soon as possible, so we can get to the bottom
of this. Aaron, Reverend Aaron Miller. If you're still in hiding,

(02:27:50):
stay there, Stay there. I know you think that you're
waiting for the coast to be clear. It will never be.
The coast is never going to be clear for you
not to have to answer questions for why you're giving
twelve year olds chest binders. Just so you understand, okay,
there are no threats. We just want to ask questions, okay,

(02:28:11):
and we need you to answer questions. If you're running
and hiding, it's obviously because you don't want to have
to answer to those questions, but you should. If anything,
just may release the statement say you're not gonna do
it anymore. That's all you could do.

Speaker 4 (02:28:25):
That.

Speaker 2 (02:28:26):
We'd appreciate that, But that scrutiny's never going away at all.
So you can scrub your telephone number, go into hiding,
close down the church, whatever it takes, and you'll wait
until everybody's you know, forgotten about it.

Speaker 5 (02:28:43):
I won't.

Speaker 2 (02:28:44):
I'm still on costcob from twenty twenty two, Remember the
cost gob scandal from Project Veritas. I'm still on that story.
I haven't let it go and I won't until we
get answers. That's what we do here. All right, I'm
gonna go check out this project Veritas thing.

Speaker 5 (02:28:59):
You should too.

Speaker 2 (02:29:00):
I will post a link on my Facebook page so
you can watch it if you need to find it,
or if you don't know how to find it on
YouTube or on x so stand by for that. Yeah,
that's about it. We'll be back here tomorrow. It's ladies' night,
so Roseanne will be here. Oh yeah, and we have
another fight. We had a fight today. Not when I
say that word, I hate using it so loosely.

Speaker 5 (02:29:21):
I apologize. We had a disagreement that resulted in some shouting.

Speaker 2 (02:29:27):
On my part. On my part, but not in a
way that you know. I'm not like a barking dog
or anything. I'm just upset. So we as a new,
newly married couple, we've got some things to work out.
Not that we need therapy in any way.

Speaker 5 (02:29:43):
I don't know. Maybe I have this thing about therapy.
I'll talk about that another time.

Speaker 2 (02:29:46):
I don't want to get into that. I just don't.
All right, it's time for us to get about it.

Speaker 10 (02:29:52):
Here.

Speaker 2 (02:29:52):
