Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:14):
Hey, yo, they they should calm down.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
The show is about to style.

Speaker 3 (00:19):
On the radio.

Speaker 1 (00:20):
Turn it up, turn it up low, turn it up loud,
like a dream come.

Speaker 4 (00:25):
True on your dreams.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Due to the nature of this program, discretion does not exist.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
It's Race on the radio right now on w t
I S News Talk ten eighty.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
It's a happy, happy home day. I'm trying to get
my death metal voice RD.

Speaker 5 (00:55):
No no no, no, no, no no.

Speaker 6 (00:57):

Speaker 4 (01:05):
It's Resa on the radio on wt I see News
Talk ten eighty.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
It's Wednesday.

Speaker 4 (01:11):
The days get closer and closer, and I am not
I'll put it this way. I'm enthusiastic about getting there.
I'm already at the destination. I tell people all the time.
The biggest problem we have is a society is that
we pay more attention to the destination than we do
the journey. Just wanting to get there or wanting answers
we want to answer, we forget about the journey. And

(01:34):
I'm doing that already because my wife has come up
with some plans, like how we're supposed to drive to
Connecticut and I gotta be honest with you. I'm scared
to death of her plans. Why not because of her,
Not because of her, but because you know the saying,
if you want to make God laugh, make plans.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
And I know it's not gonna go the way I
want to.

Speaker 4 (01:59):
I wanted to leave Sunday, Sunday, Saturday morning, sorry, Saturday morning,
my wife. Now, let's slave Friday night, after I finished
doing the show, after we finish packing the last of
the house. She wants to leave right after the show
forthwith let's go Me on the other hand, can can
I just take a break, get a.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
Good night's sleep.

Speaker 4 (02:22):
We get out really really early, a couple of hours
before daybreak.

Speaker 6 (02:26):
No.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
Wife wants to get on the road now. She can't
wait to get there. She's excited. She's more excited than me.
She's only been there. How many times you've been there now, honey, twice?

Speaker 2 (02:36):
Just twice.

Speaker 4 (02:37):
She can't wait to get back. But that's that's cool.
I totally appreciate her enthusiasm. All I want to do
is make it. I want to make it great for
her because I'm I'm gonna make it great for myself.
I know how to do that. I can take a
boring evening and make it magical. My wife on then

(03:01):
I've got a dragger to every place, in every event,
and so I just want to say that I'm looking
forward to it, but not so much the drive. We
got the trailer halfway loaded. Wife's cleaning the house, making
it ready for the tenant. It's gonna be amazing programming.

Speaker 7 (03:18):
Note.

Speaker 4 (03:19):
Gotta make sure I tell everybody this, so all of
you who watch the show online, Thursday tomorrow will be
the last edition of the show online indefinitely. I shouldn't
even say that.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
That's wrong.

Speaker 4 (03:33):
I apologize. It's not indefinite. I apologize that was a
wrong word. Periodically for a temporary time. Joey is going
to help me. He's already got a whole idea set up,
but I'm probably gonna need a couple of days on Tuesday,
like after Tuesday next week, for us to actually work
out all of the kinks so we can get the

(03:55):
online show on and pop it. Joey's excited, I'm excited.
I'm wondering what he's got in store. Can't wait to
do it. But we're gonna bring the same element. The
chatroom's gonna be available, you know, and all of your
comments in the chatroom. For those of you who wish
to watch, we're gonna still make it available for you.
There probably won't be that much of a video element,
but there will be some audio soundbites as usual like

(04:17):
every other show.

Speaker 2 (04:17):
We're no different than that.

Speaker 4 (04:19):
Uh So, I don't want to say it'll be ries
on the radio condensed a little bit, unless, of course,
Joey's got like this grand plan, which I'm still excited
for that. I just got word that we got an
event coming up Roland. I hope that you're gonna go
with me on this event on the twenty second.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
I hope you're you're you're slated to do that with me.

Speaker 4 (04:40):
I don't want to do it alone, you know, I
want I want you out there with me.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
We'll talk about that now.

Speaker 4 (04:47):
I gotta say this before I get into the opening monologue.
For those of you who follow the show on x
and on Facebook, you know that I I got a
I got an exclusive interview yesterday, and it wasn't really

(05:08):
an interview in the sense of I was trying to
speak to the individual behind the scenes. I actually wanted
this person on the air. I wanted to talk to
him on the air. And his name is John Lugo
and he is with a group called Junilad Junidad Latina

(05:36):
and I had reached out to him yesterday. Am I
pronouncing it poorly? Unidad Latina Axion. Say it one more
time so I can get it right. Don't say too fast.
Come on, what are you talking about, Unidad Latina Axion. Okay,
that's the group he's with. So Lugos grew yesterday. You

(06:02):
could find this everywhere. At about five pm, went down
to the Hamden Police Department and it was covered by
a couple of news outlets. Public radio covered it. It
was covered in a way that seemed odd to me

(06:23):
because I'm saying to myself, why would they be protesting
the police department and why does the headline say immigrant
advocates seek transparency support from Hamden officials.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
After car wash raid.

Speaker 4 (06:43):
So I get the story forwarded to me from city
Hall Adam and he said, man, it would be great
to get this John Lougos on your show. So I said,
you know what, let's do it. I look them up,
I get his assistant or somebody. He calls me about
eight o'clock at night. We're watching television. As you all know,

(07:09):
we watched The Five and Jesse on our DVR. What
were we in the middle of Jesse or The Five
when he called? It must have been the Five? And
sure enough he calls up. I missed the call. I
call him back, He misses my call. I try one
more time, and I send him a text and he
calls me. Finally, we get on the phone with each

(07:32):
other and I go, Hello, John, and he has got
the thickest accent I've ever seen him or heard in
my entire life. And he starts talking to me about
what happened. Hey, why were you guys down at the
Hampden Police Department for this protest? And he starts going
on about why he was there. And I was prompted

(07:59):
to record it, but for legal reasons and because he
did not know that I would be airing said audio,
I cannot do it without his permission. Now I know
all the legal I don't have to call the legal
department at WTIC or an odyssey.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
I know this.

Speaker 4 (08:15):
I do this every day, and I've done it for
over twenty four years. I know exactly what the rules
are before they.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
Even tell me.

Speaker 4 (08:23):
However, I can and I will transcribe them for you.
In the midst of our conversation, mister Lugo said something
that caught my wife and I by surprise.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
He used the word leak, leak.

Speaker 4 (08:47):
And I immediately hit the record button on my phone
and I say to mister Lugo, hey, I'm recording this call,
to which are recording? Then says, this call is now
being recorded, so he is aware that this is being recorded.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
Now that's the legal action, So now he knows he's
being alerted.

Speaker 4 (09:07):
I told him, and there was an electronic recording that
told him he was being recorded, so legally, I'm within
my rights. He never stopped talking. We talked ladies and
gentlemen for eighteen minutes.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
At the start of this recording.

Speaker 4 (09:24):
We had already been talking for at least three and
he gave it all up.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
This is him, not me.

Speaker 4 (09:37):
He says, they let us know when they're going to
hold an operation, but this person didn't release the information
right away. I ask him, does the Hamden Police Department
have an agreement with the community to let them know.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
He goes, no, they don't have an agreement.

Speaker 4 (10:00):
But outside of Connecticut, we highlight the Welcoming Ordinance of
New London that cast it back in April of this
year where they were going to make the city welcoming,
a welcoming city for migrants. So even though they were like,
you know, an agreement between the city and between the

(10:23):
police department the migrant community, but there's an understanding that
we will be protecting the migrant community. So we're not
asking them to go confront the federal agents. We just
feel that they had information that they disclosed the information
and they leak the information to the community to avoid
the raid and people being detained and you know, being

(10:47):
assaulted or kidnapped.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
So I asked, whoa, WHOA, WHOA Are.

Speaker 4 (10:54):
You saying that the police department informs the community activists
of the raids? And he says, no, but they usually
leak it so that we can know. And I said,
and why do they leak it? He said, so that

(11:15):
we can hide them. That's what was said. That is
on the recording. And if anybody from the police Department,
in anybody from Department of Homeland Security.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
Or anybody at ICE or anybody else who wants this audio.

Speaker 4 (11:35):
I'd be happy to give it to them. I am
within my legal right to possess this as I said,
I made it clear that we were being recorded verbally
and the audio recording saying this is being recorded. He
did not contest, He did not stop the conversation. He
knew what I asked him, He knew what I was

(11:57):
asking him. He did not know my intent because I
never told them that I wanted to know this information,
because I am outraged at the fact that somebody in
public office, or anyone who was in the police department,
or anyone who might be of some authority in the
New Haven area was leaking the information about ice raids

(12:21):
to community activists, who then aid an ebt illegals in
hiding from them. That wasn't the worst part, folks. We
went on in this conversation and asked more questions about

(12:42):
who else gets alerted to ice raids, and according to
mister Lugo, the mayor's office is also called. And Lugo
went on to tell me again recording knowledge of the recording,

(13:05):
that someone from that office will leak it as well,
so that people can avoid ice raids.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
That's what's happening.

Speaker 4 (13:19):
So I know there's some people out there who are saying, well, well,
we know that you know, Los Angeles has got this
you know, text message alert that goes out to everyone.

Speaker 2 (13:31):
That's fine.

Speaker 4 (13:34):
If that ends up being you know, if there's some
violent confrontations with ICE agents with the community because of that,
I'm sure those individuals will deal with the legal consequences
of said action. Maybe the federal government will find a
way to put the kibosh on that. But what's happening here,

(13:58):
this is something else. A lot of people who they
and this is the other part. A lot of people
know what's going on. A lot of people know that
these individuals are being told what's happening. And those people,
of course, they rally up the troops. They go to
all of the locations where the illegals are, they tell

(14:19):
them to hide, which, by the way, justin Elleker, this
nonsense about not knowing who they are and where they are.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
That's dead. Now that's dead.

Speaker 4 (14:32):
I asked the question of whether or not these folks
are illegal and if they know who they are, And.

Speaker 2 (14:37):
Sure enough, these NGOs do.

Speaker 4 (14:41):
They all know who they are, They all know where
they're working, They know exactly the spots to locate those
individuals and tell them to run. Yesterday we talked about
the Optimo car wash in Hamden, where two of the
individuals were released. I was talking about it in headlines.

(15:03):
Lugo also informs me that the reason why the two
individuals were released was not because they were American citizens.
This one will blow your mind because the two individuals
who were picked up are currently in the process of
getting their citizenship.

Speaker 2 (15:23):
Go figure, Go figure, which.

Speaker 4 (15:30):
Gives me the impression, Okay, why were they picked up?
Did they not have their paperwork on them? That's quite possible,
but they didn't. They weren't there, they weren't detained for
too long. People were able to find out who they
were and if they were again seeking an immigration status,
a legal immigration status, that was easy to find and
they were out in less than a week.

Speaker 2 (15:52):
So that part we know.

Speaker 4 (15:55):
But all this other stuff is coming from Rosa Deloro
and Justin Ellerkerr and John and all that stuff screaming
and hollering about how this is the SS.

Speaker 2 (16:04):
We now know from the activist.

Speaker 4 (16:07):
Groups that ICE is informing the police department of their actions,
and for obvious reasons, why wouldn't they Why wouldn't they
contact the local police and say, hey, we're conducting a
raid at the Optimo on such and such Avenue. I'm sorry,

(16:27):
I don't know which one. There were fourteen locations near you.
But why would they alert the police, Because if there's
a patrolman who sees an unmarked vehicle rolling up Earth,
they're not alerted to thinking it's some sort of heist
or some nefarious actions by like bank robbers.

Speaker 2 (16:46):
Or something along those lines. Everybody's on the same.

Speaker 4 (16:50):
Page, law enforcement, working with law enforcement, well abreast of
what's happening. But now we know to this activist group
that they're leaking it to the activist groups. We also
talked to mister Lugo about Victor Velasquez, you know, the one,

(17:17):
the guy who owns the eighteen Optimo car washes. I
asked him whether or not he's ever met Victor. Mister
Lugo says yes. What's your take on, mister, on Victor
Velasquez and his hiring of illegals.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
He doesn't wish.

Speaker 4 (17:38):
To talk to us, Lugo said, he doesn't want to
get involved.

Speaker 8 (17:45):
Hmm.

Speaker 4 (17:47):
I've talked to a couple of people, We've looked at
a couple of the locations as it goes with Optimo.
I don't want to I don't want to put any
dirt out there. I don't want to say anything, but
I'm just to say, perhaps somebody should look into this.
Something's going on and if it's not just simple tax

(18:09):
I mean it is simple tax evasion, fine, but I
think something else might be going on here.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
There might be something.

Speaker 4 (18:18):
Else going on in eighteen locations, none of them listed
with the Better Business Bureau just seem to be LLC's.
We've got several locations where people have been picked up
and are illegal at those locations.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
I seems to know that they're there before we go
to break.

Speaker 4 (18:39):
Lugo also said to me, which I thought was very interesting.
He tried to suggest that the ice agents have no
idea who they're picking up. They're just rounding up brown people.
I challenged them on that. I'll tell you how that
turned out when we return stand by more news, more
views and more on this topic. When we were and

(19:00):
it's rees on the radio on WTIC news Doc Dannady
fan of w t i C.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
Then do us a favorite download the free Honesty app
and favorite wt i C.

Speaker 4 (19:10):
I have so much stuff that I have to do
behind the scenes, So if you're just joining us, uh,
I was having a conversation last night with one of
the political action groups that are trying to protect illegals
in the state. And these people are well connected. You'll
see them with all the politicians at all of the rallies,

(19:32):
screaming and hollering, calling the ICE agents you know, Nazis,
SS soldiers and the like, screaming about kidnapping, as mister
Lugo did here with his uh, his group. I'm gonna
forget their name. I know, I am all right, I'm
just gonna forget their name. It's difficult for me to pronounce. Okay,

(19:55):
I'm sorry. My wife's gonna be mad. Can you at
least try, I'm trying. I am trying.

Speaker 2 (20:03):
You need that, right, you need that Latina.

Speaker 4 (20:07):
So in this conversation as it's going on on, and
I'm worried that he's going to be reluctant, that I
may be asking too many questions, but I got to
tell you, folks in Connecticut, these people are fearless. There

(20:27):
is no pushback.

Speaker 8 (20:31):
To them.

Speaker 4 (20:32):
They are sitting in their own private Idaho and everybody
agrees with the left here. And what's happening here is
it's like they it's like Connecticut against.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
Washington, and he was just free flowing, would infment information.
He talks about how.

Speaker 4 (20:58):
These people were assaulted because they were put down to
the floor. He said, they called the dispatcher and they
announced it. This is when he's talking about the phone call.
They called the dispatcher and they announced it, and the
dispatcher decides.

Speaker 2 (21:15):
To hold the information.

Speaker 4 (21:16):
And then he said, you know, he just released the
information after the raid happened. And that's why they were upset,
was because they got the information that the ice raid
was coming, but they held onto the information, which is
why they went down to the police department to hold

(21:37):
the protest. Now it's under the rouge, it's under the idea.
As the headline suggests, immigrant advocates seek transparency support from
him to officials after car Wash raid. What do you
mean transparency? What are you talking about? You mean you

(22:01):
want an alert system coming from the powers that be
to assist you in hiding illegals.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
That's what it is.

Speaker 4 (22:13):
There's no other way to put it. And this is
the guy you go there to that NPR article which
was posted. Who wrote it, Daniella Donzel wrote it. That's
the guy sitting in a picture with the microphone, standing
there with them very ambiguous, man, perse I don't know.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
That's what this thing looks like. It looks native in
some way. Maybe it was hand handmade in some way. Anyway.

Speaker 4 (22:42):
Nonetheless, he looks like the lead singer of the Gypsy Kicks.
But that's Jean John Lugo. That's what he told me,
is that why didn't they tell us? They should tell
us so we can go and hide them, and that's
not their role. But according to this gentleman, that's what

(23:03):
they're doing. So I think that someone should get to
the bottom of it. I think that someone should be
made to answer for this. Now they'll deny it, but
I don't care. I've got it on tape. You can
admonish this group. But again, and this is the part,
and I think this is very important. There has to

(23:26):
be a thorough investigation because we know that ICE agents
are in danger. That's a fact. We know that people
have been agitated enough to confront ICE agents in a
physical way. We know that people are willing to fire

(23:49):
weapons on ICE agents.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
That's undeniable. But now if it's true, and according to
mister John Lugo, it is that officials in New Haven
are releasing.

Speaker 4 (24:10):
Information or leaking it, as John puts it, leaking it
to these organizations to alert them of ice rates, because
is is telling the police department what time they're going
to be there, and again with that information, it becomes

(24:31):
reckless after the fact that I want you to think
about this on this scale because a lot of people
on the left going, well, they just don't want to
get caught. So I want I want you to take
into consideration Los Angeles, Portland, Oregon, Chicago, or just outside
of Chicago. I want you to take into consideration all
those things, and then let me tell you a story.

(24:56):
You can pretend you haven't seen the violence in those
three places, but I want to tell you story. I'm
working at my first radio gig, Hot ninety seven in
New York, and I so badly had this comedy event
that I wanted people to go to, but it wasn't sanctioned.

(25:17):
Was not sanctioned by the station, but I thought that
the station should have supported me. But in order to
do that, I'd have to pay for advertising dollars. And
I'm just some schmo who's paying getting paid one hundred
and twenty five dollars a week.

Speaker 2 (25:32):
But I was going to find a way to sneak
it in. And I was chastised. And here's why.

Speaker 4 (25:39):
Imagine you tell someone without the backing of the station
to be somewhere.

Speaker 8 (25:46):
And they go.

Speaker 4 (25:49):
And a riot breaks out and someone is fatally injured,
that's on you. Whatever happens is on you. You told
them to be there, and it was not sanctioned by

(26:09):
the station, It wasn't sanctioned by the higher ups. You
just told everybody, Yeah, go on down. There's no legal
liability that you can withstand, and station damn sure ain't
gonna pay for it, especially if you've done it without
their permission.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
That's over. Now. Think about that.

Speaker 4 (26:31):
You have an official organization finding out information about federal
agents coming into a town, going into an establishment to
go find out if there are legals there, again with
the backdrop of Illinois, Portland and Los Angeles and the
violence that has erupted there. And now you, as a

(26:54):
public official, are alerting people they're coming, defense are coming,
and then they are releasing that information to their friends.
They're releasing it to the illegals and supporters.

Speaker 2 (27:08):
Of the illegals.

Speaker 4 (27:10):
And then you've got one, maybe two, maybe ten bozos.
We're going to confront them when they arrive and all
hell breaks loose, Then what is no one going to
be held accountable? Imagine those individuals didn't have the luxury

(27:37):
of what I'm telling them right now, of what I'm
reporting right now, what would happen?

Speaker 2 (27:43):
Imagine that information.

Speaker 4 (27:47):
Had been leaked at the optimal car wash and had
gotten into the hands.

Speaker 2 (27:52):
Of the wrong individuals.

Speaker 4 (27:53):
Gang members, cartel members, traffickers, drug traffickers, had gotten into
their I don't know, onto their phones, into their ear
somebody had been whispering around, and at eight o'clock in
the morning, federal agents go there to go pick up
illegals and they're ambushed.

Speaker 5 (28:14):
What then.

Speaker 4 (28:16):
Wouldn't the question be, how did they know the obvious
would be there? The only people we told was the
police department. The only person we told was the chief
of police. The only person we told was the mayor.

Speaker 9 (28:31):
Then what.

Speaker 4 (28:34):
So this is not an opportunity to say gotcha, ooh,
look look at the scandal I've uncovered. This is reckless.
I don't give a damn what you think about the
illegal individuals in the state.

Speaker 2 (28:50):
I don't care.

Speaker 4 (28:54):
They shouldn't be here. I stand firm on that. I'm
both my two feet. I stand firm, and a lot
of people in the state feel the same way. They
don't belong here. And what makes this situation even more dangerous.

Speaker 2 (29:08):
Is what we learned last night. Because there are no people.

Speaker 4 (29:15):
You can scream and holler kidnapping, kidnapping, kidnapping, but my
counter to that is violence and shooting and rocks throwing
and attacks on ICE agents. The only people in real
bodily harm and danger are ICE agents. The only thing

(29:37):
these illegals have to deal with is going back home
and starting anew as far as coming back into this
country illegally. And if you were to ask me to
counter the boat, to look at both of us and
say which is more important? Which stands paramount the safety

(29:58):
of the officers, the safety of those officers. They're doing
their job. Men, women, fathers, daughters, husbands, wives, all of them.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
That's what they're doing their job.

Speaker 4 (30:14):
These folks, they broke the law and if they have
to run and hide, they don't belong here. If they're
living in the shadows, they don't belong here. Do you
know who else lives in the shadows? Drug dealers and criminals,
they live in the shadows. Those are the only type
of people who live in the shadows. I'm not gonna
have empathy for people who have to live in the shadows.

Speaker 2 (30:37):
They don't have to.

Speaker 4 (30:39):
They can come out into the light. They can find
their way to get legal status in this country. But
we shouldn't have the police department, or the mayor's office,
or anybody else for that matter, bending over backwards to
protect those illegals while putting officers lives in harm's way.

Speaker 2 (31:01):
This right here is a bridge too far.

Speaker 4 (31:05):
And whoever's an authority, whoever is somebody who does the
checks and balances around here, because it's quite obvious that
the locals ain't doing it, needs to get on it,
get to the bottom of it, because someone's gonna end
up dead. And Connecticut doesn't want to be in the

(31:25):
headlines that way. It's a quiet state. Even though we
got a loud mouth ag and a blabera mouth Junior Senator.
We don't need all that heat. Nobody needs all that
And Connecticut doesn't want to be known as the place
that caused the lives of ice.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
Agents to be endangered. Nobody wants that. Neither do you, Lamont. So,
as I always say on this show, get on it.
We'll be back sets on the radio. It's Race on
the radio on news. See I see.

Speaker 4 (32:03):
Is he looking at stuff over here? I got a
little overwhelmed. Let's go to the phones real quick. Dave
is in Northfield.

Speaker 2 (32:09):
Hello, David. Oh, I'm pretty good. What's up.

Speaker 6 (32:18):
It's just this whole mess is just confuses the hell
out of me. I'm sixty six years old, okay.

Speaker 10 (32:25):
And from what I'm saying is, oh, a lot of
these people around and up are pretty much minions for
the cartels.

Speaker 2 (32:37):
I would imagine. I would imagine, so, yeah.

Speaker 11 (32:41):
They're the ones distributing all this jumps, and the politicians
are essentially working for the cartels.

Speaker 4 (32:50):
You know, it's funny that you put it that way,
because I don't think there's a better way to establish
what's going on. And what I mean by that is
when you have somebody like Justin Elleker come on the
program last year it's and be a year now next
month that he's been on and when you ask him
about the individuals that he is, in essence sworn to protect,

(33:12):
and I ask him, who are these individuals?

Speaker 2 (33:15):
Can you tell us who they are and where they're from?

Speaker 4 (33:17):
And his response to that is we don't ask and
we don't tell, which obviously means he does it. Yeah,
that was his answer, which essentially means we don't ask,
we don't tell. So whatever the circumstances are that led
them to come to New Haven, he's.

Speaker 2 (33:33):
Not asked and he's not interested in asking. And what
have we learned?

Speaker 4 (33:37):
Every week in some of the local newspapers, two girls
were saved from sex trafficking in dan Berry eleven you know,
twelve thirteen guys arrested. In fact, one week in Danbury
they were like five different arrests on five different days
that got like eighty four eighty five people. They were

(33:57):
all involved in drug trafficking, sex trade or something on.

Speaker 2 (34:01):
The other or human trade, and that's what was going on.

Speaker 4 (34:04):
We also know about stories David that that about two
individuals who were forcing other illegals to pay the rent
in the house, sleep on the floor and continuously pay
them out of their own paycheck because they were paying
back the I guess the ransom if you will, getting

(34:27):
into the country, which always turns out to be somewhere
between thirty to forty thousand dollars that they have to
pay that they have to labor for to work here
in the States exactly exactly. It's modern day slavery, and
they all know it. They feign ignorance, but they know
it's happening.

Speaker 12 (34:48):
But we have our politicians all this.

Speaker 4 (34:51):
Yeah, it doesn't make sense, I know, and I'm still
trying to figure it out as well. And what makes
this so heinous is to listen to this guy, John Lugo,
to have him say to me, like I said, I
wasn't expecting it. That's why I wasn't recording in the beginning.
But then when he says that the officials are leaking
it to them, this is aiding and abetting illegal activity, Well,

(35:16):
the Trust Act is yes, exactly, which is again, Look,
I'm trying to figure out at what part in what
part of the Trust Act says that this is allowed,
that they are alerting these people and telling them or
helping them run and hide.

Speaker 11 (35:37):
I'm against just the plain concepts.

Speaker 5 (35:39):
Of the Trump the Trust Act.

Speaker 2 (35:41):
Yeah, I agree.

Speaker 11 (35:42):
I mean that's so.

Speaker 6 (35:43):
They should be.

Speaker 12 (35:44):
They should be aligned with Ice, not fighting them, for
God's sakes.

Speaker 4 (35:49):
Yeah, and you know what it'll be, It'll be something
horrific that happens that they'll be forced to admit.

Speaker 2 (35:58):
Oh, goodness, maybe we should have cooperated because it's not good.
People think Connecticut is not a soft target.

Speaker 3 (36:07):
It is.

Speaker 2 (36:08):
And when people know that there.

Speaker 4 (36:10):
Are politicians on television every day talking about how they're
going to protect illegals against the citizen of Connecticut, every nutmeger,
someone is going to say, what a prime target?

Speaker 2 (36:28):
So I mean it angers, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 4 (36:31):
You know, people keep forgetting some people keep forgetting it
was soft on crime or soft you know, background checks
in Boston and a lot of other places. That and
that softness, that that sort of willingness to let anybody
come in is how we got into a lot of
terrorist situations right here in this country outside of just
nine to eleven.

Speaker 2 (36:54):
And so it's that sort of that's feckless attitude. So
that's where we are. David, Thank you man. I appreciate
the call.

Speaker 6 (37:02):
Thank you, you got it.

Speaker 8 (37:04):
All right.

Speaker 4 (37:05):
When we come back, I gotta tell you this, Well,
we'll do headlines at the top of the hour. But
after headlines, a monologue I did about a month ago.
You might remember, for those of you who listen often,
you might remember when I asked, when is somebody going

(37:27):
to say thank you? They take your tax money? You
house them, you feed them, you clothe them. And there's
what we heard right now. Your politicians protect them, and
they tell you you must. If you do not, you're
a bigot, you're a racist. But never once has anybody

(37:49):
stopped and said to you, thank you for all you
give up, for all you do for the rest of us.
If you were angry about that, which, by the way,
after I did the monologue and it was mine, even
I got angry after the fact, you will definitely be
angry after I played the audio sound bites in the

(38:11):
three point thirty break, stand by for this, because, yeah,
I'm surprised that we as American citizens are not done.

Speaker 2 (38:19):
Even people on the.

Speaker 4 (38:20):
Left are going to be outraged at what I play,
So stand by for that. Let's get to the newsroom.
Dave Meger is in for John Silva. I'm resent a
radio as WTIC News Talk ten eighty Breese.

Speaker 1 (38:31):
On the making sense of the news, Yeah, even when
it makes no sense at all at all. Now until
a w U T I see News Talk to ten eighty.

Speaker 4 (38:40):
Can you guys wait until I get into town to
hold these rallies so I can go to them. Can
you just wait until I get there now I gotta
try to get there as early as I possibly can.
So apparently there's another rally that's going on in Hamden
on October twenty. This one is called the Sunday Pride

(39:03):
in Hamden, so you'll have to look.

Speaker 2 (39:07):
It up and find out what it is.

Speaker 3 (39:08):
But it is.

Speaker 4 (39:10):
They're calling it a no Queen's Day rally on the
twenty sixth, So go look it up and if you're interested.
And of course Catherine send this to me, and she's
a good friend of the show, so I always support her.

Speaker 2 (39:28):
Let's get to some headlines which I wasn't ready for. Hey,
here go.

Speaker 4 (39:39):
A second guest has died at Walt Disney World resort
in Florida, less than a mile from where a super
fan took her own life just last week, according to police.
The police and resort staff say that medical responders were
dispatched to the Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort and campground on
reports of a person down just after seven thirty am

(40:02):
on Tuesday. Inside the Magic reported that's the name of
the I guess they reporting place that's inside disney World,
and even know that they had that, citing the Orange
County Police Sheriff's office. They said a man in his
sixties experienced a medical episode and was transported to the
local hospital. If you didn't hear about that the last Tuesday.

(40:24):
The first woman who passed away so a woman by
the name of Summer Equits. She's thirty, was thirty one
years old. She took her own life at Denzy Did
Disney's contemporary resort in Naperville, Illinois. She's a Naper, Illinois
woman and a Disney superfan. She arrived at the park
the same day without informing her family, and she died

(40:45):
of multiple blunt impact injuries, according to the sources.

Speaker 2 (40:51):
And they said that just.

Speaker 4 (40:52):
Ten months earlier, she had announced that she was pregnant
with her first child.

Speaker 2 (40:58):
And there's been no.

Speaker 4 (41:01):
Association with whether or not, you know, there may be
a loss of the child or something along that line.

Speaker 2 (41:06):
The letter to take her own life.

Speaker 4 (41:08):
This is good news for Connecticut. I think we should
give it a round of applause. You may have seen
it in the Hartford Current and in other places. A
Connecticut district is considering armed guards at schools, but they
would not be police officers. That you know that a

(41:28):
lot of people have made this arguments that they don't
want police officers outside of the schools because they say.

Speaker 2 (41:33):
It makes the schools look like prisons. Dumb, but that's
the big issue.

Speaker 6 (41:37):
That they have.

Speaker 4 (41:38):
The Bristol Public Schools Policy Committee is considering a policy
today that would permit armed security guard personnel in the
city schools. If approved by the Policy Committee in the
Bristol's Board of Education, Bristol would join districts such as
Ellington and Derby which employ armed security guards in school

(41:58):
The armed security guard are retired police officers.

Speaker 2 (42:01):
We've talked about this, folks, they've been taken. They've been listening.

Speaker 4 (42:05):
Retired police officers who are separated from the department in
good standing.

Speaker 2 (42:10):
According to the state statue.

Speaker 4 (42:12):
Police officials say that the armed security guards are required
to receive yearly firearms training. This purpose policy aims to
allow a phase in implementation beginning next school year with
our Director of School Safety and Security, who would be
the first to carry a firearm under clearly defined guidelines

(42:35):
and training requirement according to the Bristol Superintended. So again,
I want to applaud them. It took a long time,
but they're considerate. Let's wish for good luck that they
pass it. And it's true if they're armed security guards
and they look like, you know, regular folks, and people
don't have to worry about it looking like a prison

(42:56):
or in all some other weirdness. Texas election review has
identified thousands of illegal immigrants on state's voter rolls.

Speaker 2 (43:07):
We should look at this state too.

Speaker 4 (43:10):
Texas Secretary of State Jane Nelson said Monday that she
cross checked state voter records and found more than twenty
seven hundred possible illegal immigrants were registered on the voter rolls,
leading to an eligibility review across two hundred and fifty
four counties. The data came from a full comparison of

(43:32):
Texas's eighteen million registered voters against federal citizenship records in
the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services SAVED database, according
to the secretary of State's office, or the eligible United
States citizens may participate in elections. The investigation showed, after
running the SAVE crosscheck, that state officials identified exactly two thousand,

(43:56):
seven hundred and twenty four potential non citizens whose voter
files have been sent to local counties to be fully
and further investigated. And now for the stupidest thing I
read today, Yes.

Speaker 6 (44:16):
You do.

Speaker 1 (44:18):
You could very well be the stupidest person on the face.

Speaker 13 (44:21):
Of the earth.

Speaker 4 (44:25):
I think we may know why Luigi Magi had a
bad back. I cannot believe that I'm going to read
this story, but for those of you who do, remember,
Luigi Mangoni is the young man who is now facing
a murder trial for killing the CEO of United Healthcare,

(44:52):
Brian Thompson, on the streets of Manhattan.

Speaker 2 (44:57):
Mangi is twenty six years old.

Speaker 4 (44:59):
But it turns out that just before eight months to
be exact, before he killed Brian Thompson, Mangioni was in
Asia and according to friends that he was spending time
with there, one being soccer player Christian Sacchini, and another

(45:20):
friend set in an interview with The New York Times
that Mangione in March of twenty twenty.

Speaker 2 (45:27):
Four was beaten up by seven lady boys, as they
called them.

Speaker 14 (45:37):
Again, he was beaten up by seven lady boys while
he was in Thailand, according to the report.

Speaker 4 (45:50):
That's right, seven of them. They say that he lost
his phone in a taxi. I don't know how bad
he got beaten up, And apparently there was a photo
that was provided to the New York Times with scratches
on his arm.

Speaker 2 (46:04):
But yes, seven Lady Boys, that was the way that
they posted it in this story. I'm really uncomfortable with
that name. I don't I'm not. I'm not really comfortable
saying it makes me uncomfortable. I don't know why.

Speaker 8 (46:24):
It just does.

Speaker 2 (46:26):
To the phone, we go, Thomas and Thomas, the neelloser.

Speaker 6 (46:29):
You made me laugh.

Speaker 15 (46:30):
We're Lady Boys featured in uh the Hangover part.

Speaker 2 (46:36):
Oh, that's right, that's absolutely right. I keep forgetting that movie.

Speaker 6 (46:43):
So whatever.

Speaker 8 (46:44):
Anyway, what you guy you.

Speaker 12 (46:47):
Mentioned be where I get to my main point. You mentioned,
uh uh, that guy you talked to look like the
lead singer of the Gypsy king Yes, I don't speak
I don't speak a word of Spanish. Well, I got
three or four of their CDs.

Speaker 6 (47:03):
They are so good they should they should be at
the halftime.

Speaker 4 (47:08):
So that bunny guy, Hey, well, I understand the lead
singer of the Gypsy Kings is now just kind of
going solo.

Speaker 2 (47:16):
Oh yeah, he's I could have.

Speaker 4 (47:18):
I'm positive I saw him matic because he was gonna
be performing at a casino coming up very soon. And
of course he's the most recognized voice in the group.
And that's all you need is him. But I know
that he's he Greek. I think he's Greek, right, Yeah,
you know, I think they are.

Speaker 16 (47:38):
There's southern Strand some of them are some southern France.
That's why they had the Spanish and uh, they're in
that area, southern France, northern Spain.

Speaker 2 (47:52):
That was the only reason.

Speaker 4 (47:53):
When but I saw that, I was thinking of like
a billion different guys that could come up with. But
I had this girlfriend who loved that song bumba.

Speaker 8 (48:01):
Yeah, that's great, that's.

Speaker 2 (48:04):
It's just.

Speaker 11 (48:06):
It's just some music gets you going. I don't I
don't know the word they say, but I love them.

Speaker 4 (48:11):
That's how you know music is undeniable, even when you
can't understand it, if it still makes you groove. And
it's like I can listen to that song three or
four times and still say to myself, I have no
idea what he's talking about, but I still love that song.

Speaker 13 (48:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 12 (48:25):
Yeah, so.

Speaker 17 (48:28):
You are.

Speaker 12 (48:29):
You're a great political commentator, but you're also a better
reporter than the t I C guys.

Speaker 13 (48:37):
Oh and.

Speaker 2 (48:42):
No, you're not gonna be I'm not. I can't allow
you to bash my guys, man. I can't do it.

Speaker 4 (48:47):
I got I gotta work with these guys. It's unfair.
These guys give a limited time to give news. I've
got like eighteen nineteen minutes.

Speaker 2 (48:54):
That's unfair.

Speaker 12 (48:56):
He says people were killed in a boat and a
summary execution.

Speaker 2 (49:02):
That is such a loaded word.

Speaker 6 (49:04):
He would never say that.

Speaker 12 (49:06):
About Obama or Biden bombing people. What that's ad a
word in unfair.

Speaker 4 (49:13):
It's called us Okay, so that I'm assuming that was
what the copyright is summary. Are you talking about the
bombing of the of the drug boat.

Speaker 12 (49:21):
Yeah, but they they know what they're doing recent They
would never say that about a democratic person president doing that.
It's a loaded word, implies illegal killing.

Speaker 6 (49:37):
It just strives me.

Speaker 11 (49:39):
It infuriates me.

Speaker 12 (49:40):
I just to be down the middle reports and news.
If they want to be commentators, have a commentator section.

Speaker 15 (49:50):
I get.

Speaker 4 (49:50):
I get what you're saying. I get what you're saying.
That's it's it's it's my fault one because I didn't
hear it. And when that's happening, I'm doing other stuff
behind the scenes. But like I said, I can't speak
for anybody. I can't speak for anything while they other
than the fact that it's copied. But I if you're
I totally get your I get your point though, because
it does it sounds loaded, and it gives the listenery

(50:13):
impression that the president has done something or committed a
criminal act by calling it an execution, that matter, because
then I can make the argument for you know, anwar awallaki,
you know, the droning of you know, President Obama. Uh,
and then back that up with, of course what he
said to the New York Times thereafter, I'm really good
at this killing stuff, you know, which which, by the way,

(50:35):
a lot of people ignored that he said that.

Speaker 11 (50:38):
We went to war from one incident of three thousand
Americans being killed the South. American leaders kill hundreds of
thousands of people every year. And the people taking the drugs,
they're they're culpable too.

Speaker 12 (50:55):
I'm not saying that, but you might have death that
America can suffer every year from drugs. It is a war.

Speaker 2 (51:04):
I will tell you this.

Speaker 4 (51:05):
This is the part that I don't understand. And let
me and I'll say this to you, and I'll let
you opine and I'll let you go. But you know what,
You're right about this thing with the drug thing. And
I was thinking, I don't know. I was driving this
morning and I was thinking about that, about the drug
boats and all this stuff. I have never in my
lifetime ever seen so many people standing up as American

(51:29):
citizens for people they know are evil and wish to
do us harm. Because here we're saying, right when the
drugs were in our country, they said that the war
on drugs was affecting only a certain subset of our society,
being black and brown, and those are the people who

(51:50):
were suffering the consequences for either.

Speaker 2 (51:52):
Using drugs or for selling drugs. And they didn't want that.

Speaker 4 (51:56):
And then they told us, well, who's bringing the drugs
into our communities? That was another part, and it was
used why it was saying the drugs were being putting
those communities by the government, who of course wanted to
imprison black and brown folks. So here you have this
president of the United States that just says, hey, you
know what, instead of allowing the drugs to get here,

(52:17):
and to have a whole bunch of people accuse me
or the government of implanting these drugs in the community.
If I see a boat in my waters, I just
blow it up. And these folks respond to that by
going that's just criminal, to which I go, I can

(52:39):
never and again it's never. I can never ever appease you, folks.
I can If I allow the drugs in, I'm putting
them into the black communities. If I arrest the people
who are selling the drugs, I'm arresting the black community.
If I blow it up off the waters of another
country before they get here so that I don't have
to arrest or do at least inundate the black communities

(53:00):
with drugs, I'm still a bad guy.

Speaker 2 (53:01):
So what do you want me to do?

Speaker 10 (53:04):
Yeah, it's uh, he can't win.

Speaker 6 (53:06):
It's Trunk's arrangement syndrome.

Speaker 12 (53:08):
Uh, every day, all day that college, a few calls
report he was right on when he you know, he's.

Speaker 6 (53:17):
Saying illegals coming in.

Speaker 5 (53:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 12 (53:20):
And also the drugs, that's a moneymaker for that cartels.
We're helping the cartels.

Speaker 4 (53:26):
That's exactly right, exactly right. But then again that's what
you know what, Remember Tom, here's the rub. Remember everything
we just established just here right, Donald Trump killing the drugs,
the drug dealers, and the drug bos and destroying the
drug boats before they get here. It takes the necessary

(53:47):
evil for politicians like justin Eleker to say we're.

Speaker 2 (53:50):
Gonna stop drugs, We're gonna stop crime.

Speaker 4 (53:54):
The thing that sort of permeates within these communities that
they keep telling us they're going to save, Donald Trump
is cutting off their supply line. And that's why they're mad.
Just like they don't want this in the National Guard
in their horrible cities because it cuts off the supply line.
If indeed they don't have the thing that gets them

(54:16):
elected every year as a cudgel or it's something they
could use to get elected, they're finished.

Speaker 15 (54:23):
Yeah, it's.

Speaker 12 (54:26):
It's a warp sense. We're gonna help the people, but
yet we want to try. We need to tragy the
people to get us there.

Speaker 4 (54:37):
Exactly exactly, that's all it is. Thank you man, I
appreciate you. Let's go to actually, you know what, We're
gonna take a break in the minute. But that's that's
exactly what it is. Yeah, Late Tax says, it takes
the wind out of their sails. That's what all of
this is, the entire operation that Donald Trump is doing.

(55:03):
It takes the teeth out of everything the Democrats have
been able to use to keep people in perpetual poverty.
And once you take those things away. They can no
longer use them. They can no longer say we're going
to stop crime this year. We're going to get the

(55:23):
drugs off the street. Donald Trump says, not just gonna
blow them up off the I'm just gonna blow them
up off the coast there.

Speaker 18 (55:31):
Yeah, Hey, look that's drug boat. Justin Elector goes, Oh no,
he's destroying drug boats before.

Speaker 2 (55:42):
They get here.

Speaker 4 (55:43):
How am I people gonna be hooked? How are my
people gonna be hooked on drugs? What will the drug
dealers do? There'll be no drugs in town. They'll have
to get real jobs.

Speaker 2 (55:57):
We'll have to actually provide them with them paying jobs.
That's all it is. That's all it is. Hey, look
there's another drug boat. It's on its way to Chicago. JB.

Speaker 4 (56:16):
Prinscott, Oh my goodness. What are the gangs gonna kill
themselves about? He's killed anohing supply of drugs. I need
my people inundated. Where will the crack fiends go. We'll
be forced to give them recovery. That's all kills everything
about them, everything that they've used to keep themselves in power.

Speaker 2 (56:41):
Everybody will wake up. They have nothing to use anymore.
It's over. That's how that works. I just love watching
them lose.

Speaker 4 (56:50):
It on the dumbest of things, like the most insane.
Donald Trump is destroying drugs before they get here.

Speaker 2 (56:57):
That's wrong. Everybody else is standing around going.

Speaker 4 (57:01):
What I thought the problem was that we were allowing
the drugs to come in to infiltrate our communities and
keep people brainwashed in zombie like though, it was a
good thing that we stopped the drugs. This way, they're
not getting in closing the border. Yeah, it's that simple.

(57:24):
It's actually kind of sad though, if you think about it.
I talked about this in the podcast. No, not in
a podcast. I'm talking about no opening monologue. You know,
political will versus political won't. Right, what is it that
Donald Trump's doing. He's doing the stuff that all the
politicians keep promising they'll do. You ever noticed these politicians,

(57:48):
especially here in Connecticut, You notice they never talk about prosperity,
not once one of them.

Speaker 2 (57:54):
Have ever talked about you working your way to riches
to wealthy. It's always the bare minimum so you can
take care of your family.

Speaker 4 (58:10):
Well, what if I want to buy a bigger house,
What if I want to pay for my daughter's wedding.
What if I want to buy my wife a fancy card?
What if I want to move to a nice neighborhood.
Never a conversation about that. Politicians don't promise it because
they don't want it for you. They just want you

(58:33):
to be able to take care of your family the
bare minimum. Don't you want to do that? Have you
met my wife? Have you met my wife? I could
never go for the bare minimum.

Speaker 2 (58:50):
She won't let me. She always finds a way to
go bigger, grander. We'll take a break. We'll come back.
One news, more views when we return. Not yet, it's
not yet. You got early there, didn't you. We'll take
a break.

Speaker 19 (59:06):
We'll come back.

Speaker 2 (59:06):
More news, more views.

Speaker 4 (59:07):
It's recent the radio, speaking of expensive radio equipment. We're
doing a switch real soon, aren't we. When does that
get underway? We're the last stations were last. We still
got two other stations. Oh man, So we might not
even see that until late next year.

Speaker 2 (59:23):
Yeah, next year? All right, good, good, good.

Speaker 4 (59:25):
They might get get an opportunity to be comfortable and
then they can ruin it comfortable and.

Speaker 2 (59:30):
Exactly right. Reesa on the radio wt i C News
Talk ten to eighty.

Speaker 4 (59:34):
We will get to a whole bunch of news and
a whole bunch of views, because, as luck would have it, it.

Speaker 2 (59:41):
Looks like the Democrats are supporting a Nazi.

Speaker 18 (59:45):
I did work that up.

Speaker 2 (59:51):
We'll get to that stand by.

Speaker 4 (59:54):
So I did an opening monologue a while back, not
even too long, but it was about how, with illegal
immigration and poverty and all that other stuff, your tax
dollars have been used in such ways that even if
you push back on the people will call you a bigot, like.

Speaker 2 (01:00:16):
How dare you?

Speaker 8 (01:00:17):
How dare you?

Speaker 2 (01:00:20):
These people are struggling.

Speaker 4 (01:00:22):
You don't know what they've been through, and you know
you've got it all, you know, driving your mid size sedan,
working twenty hours a week, I mean twenty hours a day,
ninety hours a week, trying to take care of your
student loans and your kids who want to go to

(01:00:44):
soccer and ballet.

Speaker 2 (01:00:46):
Your other son wants to be in sports. You got
a dog, you want.

Speaker 4 (01:00:51):
To go on vacation this year to walk Disney World,
and the wife wants to go to the Bermuda and
all that other stuff. I know you're working your fingers
to the boat, but don't you dare come for these
poor people who need your tax dollars so they can survive.

(01:01:11):
And I said, I've never once heard anybody say thank you,
John Q Public, thank you for all you do, all
your hard work, and we take your tax.

Speaker 2 (01:01:22):
Money and we squander it.

Speaker 4 (01:01:25):
We give it to people who have not even been
in the country for fifteen to twenty minutes, to the
tune of one point three billion dollars. We educate their
children to barely learn English, where your child is failing
in learning how to read. We've ignored you in our

(01:01:49):
city hall meetings. We've ignored you at our town hall meetings.
We told you to shut up and set out, and
we're in charge, and then we take your tax dollars.
If we don't even have the decency to say thank you,
I know how that can make you angry. But I

(01:02:10):
gotta be honest, folks, I don't think you're angry enough.

Speaker 2 (01:02:16):
May I help? Glad you asked?

Speaker 20 (01:02:20):
If they take away snap benefits in the November and December,
y'all better be stealing from walmarts, big corporations, whole foods,
stay away from the small stores and family owned stuff.

Speaker 21 (01:02:33):
Donald Trump done.

Speaker 22 (01:02:35):
Let's just make it clear, okay, he talking about people
ain't getting food stamps in November and probably not December.

Speaker 21 (01:02:41):
He better get ready because it's about the go down. Okay.
What you're gonna learn is you don't play with black
people's food stamps. Okay, damn, mister Trump.

Speaker 23 (01:02:50):
I don't care nothing about what you be a little
side piece, Miss Argentina got going on. Okay, release my
food stamps. I got eight kids to feend. Release my
food stamps. I need a refund immediately.

Speaker 21 (01:03:04):
Okay, Donald Orange Man Jay Trump. I'm gonna take it
just like this.

Speaker 3 (01:03:09):
What the you mean?

Speaker 21 (01:03:10):
Who ain't getting on food stamps? I will be at
mother Walmart with my steel toes on and my mother help.

Speaker 23 (01:03:18):
Me, and I trying to stop me from walking out
that mother store with my grocery.

Speaker 24 (01:03:23):
All I know is if I don't receive my benefits
this month food stamps, feel bad for the mother shop, right,
I will just be rolling my car out that like.

Speaker 2 (01:03:36):
I pay for it.

Speaker 25 (01:03:37):
If forty two million people are at risk of not
receiving their EBT benefits in the month of November, I
don't think that the grocery store staff should be risking
their lives.

Speaker 6 (01:03:49):
For a bag of groceries.

Speaker 2 (01:03:51):
I'm on foods now, let me let me tell you
this right now, Donald J.

Speaker 26 (01:03:54):
Trump, I don't know what the you got going on
in the House of yours, but you be at a fixie.

Speaker 2 (01:04:00):
Just because your ass going through some don't mean you
gotta take it out on everybody else. Sixty right now,
let me let me not get my food stamps.

Speaker 27 (01:04:09):
Y'all better lock y'all cars that night. Lock your cars,
Lock your house up if you want of them. People
that just leave your car unlocked, parking your driveway, better
lock it. With the food stamps being gone and people
not gonna have no people gonna eat, Okay, nobody's just
gonna this is twenty twenty five. Nobody's just not gonna
eat nobody's food stamps.

Speaker 11 (01:04:27):
I'm telling you right now.

Speaker 27 (01:04:29):
Even with the government shut down, the food stamps and
stuff being gone for next month, and it's gonna affect everybody,
there's a gootta be a lot of stuff going on. Okay,
I'm not even gonna talk about it too much because
you know what's about to have been.

Speaker 6 (01:04:41):
Lock your cars, lock them.

Speaker 21 (01:04:44):
I have not ate in five days.

Speaker 22 (01:04:46):
It is the tax payers responsibility to feed me five
whole days.

Speaker 2 (01:04:52):
I haven't ate.

Speaker 26 (01:04:53):
Trump cutting off food stams right before Thanksgiving, baden on,
But my people run out of stores with the cart
fo I bet it's gonna be some turkey on my plate,
ham mass, Potato's, greens dressing.

Speaker 2 (01:05:06):
It's gonna all be there. Don't worry, aboudy.

Speaker 4 (01:05:11):
I don't think you're angry enough. I don't think you're
angry enough. I know you're listening to that. You just
say yourself, what yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what happens when
you create a dependent society. If you notice nobody bothered

(01:05:35):
to say thank you because they don't think they have to.

Speaker 2 (01:05:41):
Why should they?

Speaker 4 (01:05:44):
The politicians have told them, we're here to serve you,
we are here to take care of you. We're gonna
take care of your most basic need. And what do
these people say. Instead of being concerned and saying, I
got to go out there and go get me a job.
No no, no, no no no, they said they're gonna
rob private businesses because I'm gonna eat.

Speaker 2 (01:06:05):
Is what they said.

Speaker 4 (01:06:08):
That's their words, that any mine. I don't think you're
mad enough prepared to get mad enough.

Speaker 28 (01:06:17):
You know what, since you want to take food stalls
a week, I'm going to Walmart I'm gonna rag up
any downtown won't run in the basket.

Speaker 2 (01:06:25):
I'm woman right about. We will get out my way
from that band for a damn thing. I was sprailing
to think talk and I just saw that next month us.

Speaker 26 (01:06:35):
Lower class people, you know, our lower class.

Speaker 2 (01:06:41):
We ain't gonna get them up peop foods times.

Speaker 17 (01:06:43):
Let me tell you you know how many people I
have seen saying they're gonna go to Walmart and steal like.

Speaker 2 (01:06:51):
They don't know that we don't.

Speaker 7 (01:06:52):
I'm probably gonna push all off. But I said it
before and I'm gonna say it again. Rich people should
have no say in how people who receive food stand
spend their food stamps. People who are not food stamp
recipients should not have a say and how food stamp
recipients spend their food stamps. People who have never had
to survive on food stamps should not have a say

(01:07:15):
and how people who receive food stamps spend their food stamps.

Speaker 19 (01:07:19):
Got an email from EBT. I used to get seven
hundred and forty dollars a month for my two kids,
and we're not getting EBT. No morning took to EBT.

Speaker 2 (01:07:31):
Now this is a grown man. He looks like he's
a little younger than me. He appears hispanic.

Speaker 4 (01:07:41):
He said, he woke up, looks like the middle of
the day and said he got an email that EBT
EBT funds are not coming this month with the caveat
in order for him to get them. He's about to
explain to you what he learned and how he feels
about it. Again, you're not angry enough.

Speaker 19 (01:08:05):
They saying, I gotta work twenty hours a week. I'm
not working for nobody. Get the fuck out of here.
This is what Americans tax payer work for for us.
They work for me. They gotta help me feed my
fucking kids. Get the gouty here. You know what I'm saying, like,
don't be quit as now. Y'all been helping us all
this time. Now y'all want to tap out. Get the

(01:08:26):
out here. I want my EBT, yo, I want my EBT,
and I'm.

Speaker 2 (01:08:30):
Not working for nobody. I'm a fucking boss.

Speaker 21 (01:08:33):
What the f looks like working when the government is
here to help?

Speaker 2 (01:08:39):
He said?

Speaker 4 (01:08:40):
What do I look like working when the government is
here to help? He said, I'm a boss, It's what
he said. I ain't working for nobody. That's your job.

Speaker 2 (01:08:54):
Your job.

Speaker 4 (01:08:58):
We need to start asking our elected officials if they
feel the same way. We need to start playing these
videos for them. Hey, you see these people that we're
busting our hump for so we can get them assistant.

Speaker 2 (01:09:14):
Look at the way they respond.

Speaker 3 (01:09:17):
Huh.

Speaker 4 (01:09:18):
Millions and millions of people we say they're gonna take
one month off and this is how they respond. It's
our job telling us, not a thank you amongst them.
I've got even something better. I gotta play this last week.
This last clip is the best. Is the best.

Speaker 2 (01:09:38):
Latina girl.

Speaker 4 (01:09:41):
Said that her sister posted a video about them being
on food stamps. Well, apparently there's a backstory when the
government is here to help.

Speaker 29 (01:09:50):
So my sister made a video about how my whole
entire family gets edt and everyone is calling us bombs
because you are because we don't work.

Speaker 2 (01:09:59):
You are bomb because you don't work.

Speaker 29 (01:10:00):
You live off the government, and we are proud of that.
Growing up, this is what we were taught. We were
taught to not have to work. We were taught to
live off the government because it is there for us
to use. And from what I could remember, it all
started back with my grandparents.

Speaker 18 (01:10:17):
My grandparents used to get the paper, like the generational bombs.

Speaker 2 (01:10:23):
That's right.

Speaker 4 (01:10:23):
There's generational wealth and then there's generational losers. Generational wealth,
generational losers, leeches, bums.

Speaker 2 (01:10:42):
Started all the way with grandma and grandpa. The tradition
runs deep in that family.

Speaker 29 (01:10:50):
Paper coupons to go and pay for you know, food
and stuff like that. And that's when I was like,
this is free money, Like what so? Living off of
EBC is literally a tradition in our family.

Speaker 2 (01:11:02):
It's a tradition.

Speaker 4 (01:11:06):
In a family. It's a long standing tradition to mooch
off the taxpayer. I come from a long line of moocha's.
When my great great grandfather came here, he was a
beggar on the street, and then they implemented government programs.

(01:11:28):
We've been on them ever since. We even have a
family cress. It's a big giant w on. It stands
for welfare. Ah, we'll be back, more news, more views.
Maybe your outrage. It's reats on the radiot. I see,
I love the comments in the chat room. That's right,

(01:11:52):
Dave says, originally meant as a hand up and not
a handout.

Speaker 2 (01:11:57):
We're talking about the folks who are.

Speaker 4 (01:11:59):
Going online, who are openly expressing the fact that EBT
is for them and the likelihood that food stamps would
not be coming in a month of November has gotten
them all upset. And I played the last one. Let
me let me see if I could play it again.
This one was my favorite, That's why I saved it
for last. Let me fast forward until I can get

(01:12:20):
to the young lady in question. And this again, a
Latina young lady who said that her sister posted a video.
I guess had the audacity to post a video about
how they were on food stamps. And this young lady
is responding to people who criticize their sister.

Speaker 29 (01:12:38):
It's a shimade, a video about how my whole entire
family gets EBT and everyone is calling us bombs because
we don't work and we live off the government, and
we are proud of that.

Speaker 21 (01:12:50):
Growing up, this is what we were taught.

Speaker 29 (01:12:52):
We were taught to not have to work, we were
taught to live off the government because it is there
for us to use.

Speaker 4 (01:12:59):
I can't help in my head. In my head, I'm going,
how does that conversation go? Like that's I'm trying to
figure that out, Like, how do you have that conversation
with your child, like if I were to imagine it,

(01:13:20):
having never been there, I don't know anyone in my
family who ever said, you know, you don't really have
to work, like.

Speaker 2 (01:13:30):
I couldn't even imagine that.

Speaker 4 (01:13:32):
My mom, a single mom, five kids, We were on welfare,
and this young lady talks about the you know, having
the paper, you know, food stamps.

Speaker 2 (01:13:41):
We talked about it, you know, with Roseanne a couple
of weeks ago. I knowed it was like that shame
that came with it. I was embarrassed to walk with that,
and I knew nothing better.

Speaker 4 (01:13:52):
It wasn't like we were rich folks who had been
reduced to food stamps. We had always been bored. Having
to use that paper food stamp was insulting. It was embarrassing.
I felt awful, especially when my mother would send me
to the store.

Speaker 2 (01:14:07):
I remember what she said.

Speaker 4 (01:14:08):
Edit got to the stone and I would go, oh,
please don't give me food stamps, Please.

Speaker 2 (01:14:13):
Don't give me food. And she would give me that
book and I would have that book and I'll go, oh,
I just I hated it.

Speaker 4 (01:14:29):
And then of course, as luck would have it, as
luck would have it, because I don't believe in coincidences.

Speaker 2 (01:14:37):
You get to the grocery counter. You were in the store,
you think no one's there.

Speaker 4 (01:14:41):
You get to the grocery store, the stand there, get
ready to cash out, and there she is, the girl
you've had a crush on since the fourth grade. She's
standing there the next dollar. She's not using food stamps,
and she's there with her girlfriend. She turns around and
she looks at me, and she says, hey, how you doing.

(01:15:03):
Just as I'm trying to pay for some milk and
some eggs and I've got to pull out that big
giant food stamp booklet. Oh and both of them laughed
at me. I can still hear them laughing. Now, huh,
who has the laugh?

Speaker 2 (01:15:21):
Now last? Now huh, who's got the last laugh?

Speaker 21 (01:15:23):
Now huh.

Speaker 2 (01:15:24):
Anyway, No, it was humiliating.

Speaker 13 (01:15:27):
It was.

Speaker 2 (01:15:28):
But I will tell you this.

Speaker 4 (01:15:30):
I'll tell you this, because of that humiliating thing, I
never went on the dole. I never wanted to feel
like that again. I wanted to feel a sense of accomplishment.
I needed to make sure that I made my own way.
I just couldn't do it, just couldn't do it. There

(01:15:51):
you are, let's get our first check of weather in traffic.
I got Mark krestovver, he's at the BPS traffic Center.

Speaker 2 (01:15:57):
How are we doing that body? That's one of my
favorite records.

Speaker 8 (01:16:04):
By the way, Yeah, the Jets.

Speaker 4 (01:16:07):
I had such a crossunder. By the way, that was
the last time I ever saw after that food stamp incident.

Speaker 8 (01:16:13):
You got laughed out.

Speaker 2 (01:16:14):
I got laugh laughed.

Speaker 4 (01:16:15):
Out of a supermarket with a food stamp in my hand.
That's the last image you'll ever have it now.

Speaker 8 (01:16:20):
Now you're just the opposite, and you will take a
day off now if I see it again. Like Christmas,
even Reese is the only one in America that's still working.
Jim and Santa Claus in the rain here, it's crazy breeze.
Good afternoon on the radio.

Speaker 1 (01:16:35):
Don't say we didn't more than on News Talk ten
eighty w T I.

Speaker 2 (01:16:40):
See yeah, you know what, Timm.

Speaker 1 (01:16:53):
It is.

Speaker 2 (01:16:54):
Congratulations to mister John h.

Speaker 4 (01:16:56):
He lives in Cromwell and he is today's winner of
the dozen bagels a month for six months, courtesy between
Rounds the Bagel Bakery and Sandwich Cafe, located in South Windsor,
Vernon and Manchester. If you'd like an opportunity to win,
you gotta go to Resa on radio dot com. That's
our E E S E on the radio dot com

(01:17:17):
to enter as many times as you like. But once
you won, you can't win again for another six months,
and you have to live in the state of Connecticut
in order to participate. And you cannot be my wife
who keeps saying, yeah, she's gonna get bagels for free,
but she just always says can iply she always wants
to win contest. Nothing is crazier than having to tell
your wife and I want to win, you can't, honey,

(01:17:37):
you can't. We'll say you can't, so I have to
tell it to all the time, all the time. Anyway,
coming up, folks, as you remember, we have a guest
in the house. Robert Bell, also known as Pool of
Pool in the Gang, joins the program in just a

(01:17:59):
little bit. We'll talk to him about the tour. We'll
talk to him about music. We'll talk about what they're
doing now. It is great to see, of course them
still touring, especially you know, music that's beyond my years
that I had to grow up with.

Speaker 2 (01:18:12):
I'm gonna tell him.

Speaker 4 (01:18:12):
A very cool and probably annoying story about my childhood
getting to know cool in a Gang. He will not
like this story, but not in the sense that he'll
hate it, but in the sense of it would be
one of the worst stories about anyone.

Speaker 2 (01:18:26):
Being introduced to a band ever. So I can't wait
to tell him. I'm really excited to tell him this story.

Speaker 4 (01:18:35):
And a person who really really loves Cooling the Gang,
who should be interviewing him as Mark Christopher. He's in
the BPS Traffic Center. This is such a great group,
and they had a lot of great grooves.

Speaker 2 (01:18:49):
I'll tell you that.

Speaker 8 (01:18:52):
I mean, get down on it if you really want it.

Speaker 4 (01:18:56):
Senior year in high school, I had to learn again
every one of those songs. I learned that it was
in the most peculiar circumstances. I learned cool in the Gang,
and it's again, it's probably the corniest way you can
learn about good music or good bands.

Speaker 2 (01:19:11):
So I can't wait to tell the story. All right,
you got to hear you got any questions for him?
Real quick?

Speaker 8 (01:19:17):
No, not really, I'm interested to hear hear. I mean
they've been they've been together since what late sixties?

Speaker 18 (01:19:23):
Maybe?

Speaker 2 (01:19:24):
Yeah, absolutely, I.

Speaker 8 (01:19:25):
Show them a couple of years ago at the Toyta
oak Deal Theater with the Spinners and with Average White Band.
They were tremendous.

Speaker 2 (01:19:31):
Yeah, I'm sure tremendous show. Yeah, I'm sure remember that one.

Speaker 8 (01:19:35):
I'm kidding, probably not, but it was just a couple
of years ago. But that was the only time I've
ever seen them. They were seeing it was great they
do but in a great show.

Speaker 3 (01:19:43):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:19:43):
Absolutely, It's race on the radio on newst I see.

Speaker 4 (01:19:49):
I cannot believe that I'm actually getting to do this,
but I'm gonna do it anyway. I'm sorry, folks, but
you have no idea the importance of this record because
I wouldn't know it.

Speaker 2 (01:20:04):
I wouldn't know it.

Speaker 4 (01:20:06):
A lot of you remember this sample, A lot of
you know the significance of this record. But the man
who is important, the man who is responsible, he is
our guest today.

Speaker 2 (01:20:20):
He is none other than Robert cool Bell. Give him
around of applause.

Speaker 21 (01:20:26):
There.

Speaker 4 (01:20:30):
How you doing there, sir man, Everything is doing fine.
I gotta tell you, you know, I had Melbourmore on
a couple of weeks ago. I feel like I'm living
my childhood in a weird way because I never would
have thought the way that you guys were always a

(01:20:51):
part of my life, because music was a huge part.

Speaker 2 (01:20:53):
Of my growing up.

Speaker 4 (01:20:54):
As it is for many people, you don't know that
you're going to ever get the opportunity to talk to
those folks on there, so to know that I'm on
the phone with you.

Speaker 2 (01:21:01):
So I'm a little giddy.

Speaker 4 (01:21:02):
Pardon me if I'm going to sound a little fanish
and fanboyish having you on my program that bears my name.

Speaker 2 (01:21:08):
So you have no idea what kind of honor is.
And thank you for taking the time to do that.

Speaker 8 (01:21:14):
Thanks for having me my pleasure.

Speaker 4 (01:21:16):
So I want to tell you this story is you
may have heard during the break, you know, how I
was introduced to you, because people always say it's like, yeah,
I didn't really listen to cooling the game growing up.
So I'm a part of I'm fifty six. So I
grew up in the hip hop era. So all of
the music, all of the music that I had to
sort of recognize or that I came to know, always

(01:21:37):
came from songs that were sampled. And as you know,
because you were in the business, you were probably you know,
contacted countless times in the eighties and nineties being asked
for you to clear the samples on some of your
own records that you produced, which became a fabric of
my life. But I was introduced to your sounds early

(01:21:58):
when I packed groceries at a grocery store on Top
forty stations every day. Cool in the Gang played on
the airwaves, but it was during you know, the latter years,
when you guys were very top forty and you were
playing on what was considered sort of top forty stations.
So songs like Joanna celebrate those songs that kind of

(01:22:22):
became like the staples of my life as I was
growing up. But then when I got home and my
mother would play your albums, I couldn't recognize the two
because I was like, that's Cool in the Gang. That
doesn't sound like the group that I was hearing. Talk
to me a little bit about the the the sort
of the move from the funk era, because that's what

(01:22:43):
you guys were. You were technically sort of an R
and B funk that went into Top forty. Talk to
me about that, because what I know about Isaiah, you
guys went through a lot of name changes before you
came to Cool in the Gang.

Speaker 6 (01:22:54):
That's you did, all right, Let me get stuck. We
suck off by a jazzy that could right, and then
we can't the name does he had the act fout
up for jazz, And then we turned down there into
Soltown band and Jersey. There was an old musician called
the Sotown productor they have to be like Motown and

(01:23:17):
who became the band? Okay, we had a lot of
motile hits, you know, since a lot of baby be
the only skin devot ourself, right, and then we moved
on to Cooler in the Flames. Now we can't to
name the cool and the flags. We have a problem.
Uh imagine that we can't use the name flanks bout

(01:23:40):
and the favorite Flames.

Speaker 2 (01:23:41):
Oh, so.

Speaker 6 (01:23:44):
We won't have any problem with the Godfather. So we said, well,
what do we call ourselves? And we finally came up
with cool in the Game. First record came about nineteen
sixty nine called cool.

Speaker 30 (01:23:56):
In the Game.

Speaker 6 (01:23:57):
So what was we moved?

Speaker 2 (01:23:59):
Yeah, I'm sorry, I apologize.

Speaker 6 (01:24:03):
Then we moved sounds like.

Speaker 4 (01:24:09):
Uh yeah, so what when you guys had sort of
like the funk sound uh in your band and you
were saying like you were going into sort of the
mote that everybody sort of had a Motown sound, did
you guys consider yourselves experimental or were you sort of
moving with a sort of motion that was happening in

(01:24:32):
a lot of R and B that was sort of
like the the Funkadelics and and things of that nature.

Speaker 2 (01:24:37):
Because I know you had you guys had.

Speaker 4 (01:24:39):
Great guitar players that were comparable to the ham Driks
and and and many others. But what made the decision
to go into that sort of funk groove thing? Was
that universal or were you following your trend so to speak?

Speaker 6 (01:24:53):
That was just the beginning of the seventies. Like I
said that, we left uh those name changes in the sixties.
We came out with Funking Man, all that stuff back
then we were doing, and then we went into the
funky stuff on Jungle Boogie. Yeah, And that time came

(01:25:17):
around for us in the funk Oil and then we
went into some of My Madness Madden with the album
after the album that was uh that had those songs
on the Jongle Boogie.

Speaker 4 (01:25:31):
So that now when you guys are in the middle
of that, cause I know what it was like when
I was growing up sort of in the hip hop
era in the very early stages of that, and you
sort of following the trend of like going into funk.
Did you ever think that funk was kind of just
a like a fad, like it didn't really have a
sort of a lasting impression in music.

Speaker 2 (01:25:53):
Did you? I mean, were you doing it? You know
what I mean?

Speaker 4 (01:25:56):
Like, did you really want to make funk a genre?
Because I almost like it isn't really anymore? But how
did you feel when that genre was going through its
sort of maturations.

Speaker 2 (01:26:05):
And all other stuff.

Speaker 6 (01:26:08):
Well, we were feeling good about about that, that part
of it in the mid mid seventies, because that's kind
of like what was happening now, you know when you
look at the parlam and fucking Bellars players, all our competitives.
You know, we were dealing with that and we were

(01:26:30):
holding our home you were, Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:26:34):
No, I was gonna say you were.

Speaker 4 (01:26:36):
Because another another competitive genre during that time was disco
and the late seventies, like the mid seventies.

Speaker 2 (01:26:45):
What was that was that competitive?

Speaker 4 (01:26:46):
Was there like a sort of animus between the two
genres because of people trying to sell records?

Speaker 22 (01:26:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:26:54):
Well the thing about the disco things, we tried to
lock answer that a bit. Uh when we came up
with the open sesame and yeah, all those stick corn
lines and co those that this thing, and uh so
we kind of fell into that, but we came up

(01:27:14):
well south, we put four on the floor, open Sesame.
It was like yeah, yeah on the top and this
go along the violence.

Speaker 2 (01:27:25):
I totally cant I totally get that sound that that
makes it.

Speaker 4 (01:27:29):
That makes not a lot of sense now hearing you
describe it, I'm just going, yeah, I guess that kind
of was the same deal when you guys start going
into the top forty realm in the eighties and you
you of course ballants become a huge part of the
eighties scene.

Speaker 31 (01:27:48):
Now.

Speaker 4 (01:27:48):
I don't know if am I permitted to ask about
the JT era because I understand that there's not really
there's kind of no lost love between the two.

Speaker 6 (01:27:59):
Well, yeah, came right about seventy seven seventy eight for us.
We're all on tour with the Jackson five and the
actual Promola Dick Griffy you know that name, Salom Solo Records. Okay,

(01:28:19):
uh she came to us and said, you guys are
doing the great show here. He said, but I think
you needed lead singer. But we said we need at
least what recent yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:28:35):
Okay, so, but but we thought about it.

Speaker 6 (01:28:39):
See you had us one, if I had Little Bailey
and movies white right, the commodore has had a line
of uh. So we fell with maybe it's a time
to make a change. And that's when we h we
you know, just a lot of people. We are this

(01:29:01):
in Jat he was at same seria. We're working out
and we.

Speaker 10 (01:29:05):
Bom into the group.

Speaker 6 (01:29:07):
No, I'm hanging out in New York with my wife, okay,
and also in the regimes and that same I noticed
that every weekend it was a lady's night.

Speaker 12 (01:29:20):
Ah.

Speaker 6 (01:29:22):
Yeah. I went back to my brother and the guy
in the bathist I got the perfect song, well, uh,
my first song with JC, and my brother said what
I said, h ladies and Night. He said, wow all over, wow.

Speaker 21 (01:29:39):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (01:29:40):
You know what's so crazy about that?

Speaker 4 (01:29:41):
By the way, if you're just joining us, we're on
the phone with Robert cool Bell of course of the
infamous incomparable uh cool in the Gang.

Speaker 2 (01:29:49):
That is the first song I was ever introduced by
my mom by you.

Speaker 4 (01:29:53):
That was when I figured out, like I had already
heard all of the ballads, but Ladies' Night was my fate.
My mother's favorite song, and she used to what the
kids called pregaming today. Before my mom would go out
to the clubs, she would play that record before she
went out. That's how much she loved that song. That's
the only reason why I know it is because of
my mom. Ever since then, so j Z that becomes

(01:30:16):
the first record that JT sings. Of course it's a
huge hit because I even know it in my childhood.
So you guys figured, oh my goodness, you've got the formula.

Speaker 2 (01:30:26):
Let's go with this.

Speaker 6 (01:30:28):
Right then we won two American Music Awards. Ladies. I'm
California and my brother was listening to the track and uh,
the tag of that track, if this is your nineteen night,
come on that celebration. That's another song she came up
with the club they have to do a song called celebration.

(01:30:51):
Oh we didn't know that, fellow than ladies.

Speaker 8 (01:30:54):
Yeah, that's.

Speaker 2 (01:30:57):
You didn't know you were writing an anthem. That's what
you didn't know.

Speaker 4 (01:31:01):
That song is an anthem. Whether you like it or not,
it is everywhere. That is an anthem song.

Speaker 6 (01:31:07):
Yeah, but the blessing with that. There is a lot
of different celebrate.

Speaker 8 (01:31:13):
Right, a couple of.

Speaker 6 (01:31:15):
But we didn't know that that huge, you know, Yeah,
And we tried to come up with another. It didn't work.

Speaker 4 (01:31:28):
But wait a minute, you had a couple of Yeah.
First of all, you had ballads like Joanna, you know,
and That's You. You had, you actually had. You guys
had a lot of great hits. But I need to
ask you about celebrating. I promised everyone that I was
going to ask, In fact, two questions I promised that
I was going to ask. First question was Celebrate. We've
got an open tally here on the show. We always

(01:31:49):
talk about it, songs that we do not want to
hear wedding bands perform. And I've got two. I don't
want anybody other than you guys performing Celebrate or forming
Larry Blackman's word up.

Speaker 2 (01:32:03):
It cannot be performed amateurs at all.

Speaker 5 (01:32:06):
Ever.

Speaker 2 (01:32:07):
But my question to you is, have you ever heard
a bad rendition of Celebrate?

Speaker 4 (01:32:13):
Like you're out somewhere in someone else's performing your songs,
especially Celebrate?

Speaker 2 (01:32:18):
Have you ever had to endure that and what it
was like?

Speaker 13 (01:32:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:32:23):
Now, then you know.

Speaker 6 (01:32:27):
You know the thing about that because music people think,
well that's a very simple song, we can play that, right,
and then it's far to it's like, you know, it
as simple as I thought it was.

Speaker 4 (01:32:41):
Yeah, it's a difficult record. It's not as easy as
people think.

Speaker 6 (01:32:46):
Then we had others. I mean you look at Jungle
Boogie and how they was swinging on then yeah, you
know we're rock the crowd with that, and then then
you go back to uh uh uh get down on Yeah, Cherish,
Cherish is definitely, want to say, for a.

Speaker 4 (01:33:06):
Lot of weddings, Yes, that is a you know what,
I've every wedding I've ever been to that played Cherish,
They always played the record. I'm so glad I've never
heard a band perform it. I've just I got a
thing with wedding bands. People get mad at me about that. Okay,
last question, someone sent me this one to say to
make sure that I ask you, is there still and
as they're still an on.

Speaker 2 (01:33:26):
The outs kind of deal between you and JT.

Speaker 4 (01:33:29):
Because there are some people saying that they wish that
you guys would perform together again. Any likelihood you don't
have to you know, you don't have to throw any shade,
but is any likelihood maybe you've seen the two of
you guys.

Speaker 2 (01:33:40):
Get back together.

Speaker 6 (01:33:41):
Listen. I always say I'm a guy to say never
say never, right, you know, well we did Buckleo Hall
of Fame with him, right right, it was the comeback.
Oh they getting back together now that's you know. But uh,
you know, I okay, I'm loyal to the guys. I
have no way, guys, J was almost twenty years. I

(01:34:04):
can tell the guys this guy you got God, I
just kick them.

Speaker 15 (01:34:09):

Thank you very much.

Speaker 4 (01:35:26):
You welcome Robert cool Bell of Cool in the Gang.
I'm not getting all of my like childhood like reminiscent
comed In. Let's get to Bork Christompers in the BPS
traffic center.

Speaker 8 (01:35:38):
That was cool.

Speaker 4 (01:35:40):
Hey, oh yeah, I hope they do get back together.
I want to see them get back together again.

Speaker 8 (01:35:52):
Great band, great band, no question about it.

Speaker 2 (01:35:55):
Day locked in race on the radio is on w T.
I see, I'm not gonna lie. I couldn't feel.

Speaker 4 (01:36:07):
Cooler than the other side of the pillow. I just
bumped to Robert Bell. That's just so weird. It's like,
how do I tell my family that. I know my
mom will be like freak out. I'm just really really lucky.
I really really do it. And thank you guys. For

(01:36:29):
the comments in the chat room. By the way, by
no measure do I believe that funk is dead, but
not in the traditional sense of the word funk. There
have been people who have tried funk. I've listened to

(01:36:52):
them in the nineties. There were this sort of resurgence
of like trying to bring funk back, and it wasn't
really it was kind of like a funk punk deal.
I wasn't a great fan. They had some great songs.
I listened to Fishbone. Of course, Red Hot Chili Peppers
went through a phase when they tried to incorporate that.

Speaker 2 (01:37:18):
During that time.

Speaker 4 (01:37:18):
I was listening to a lot of weird music in
the nineties and I accidentally found The Far Side, which
then once I found them, I was that was it.

Speaker 2 (01:37:27):
I was stuck on the Far.

Speaker 4 (01:37:29):
Side for a lot of years. I got that first album,
Bizarre Ride to the Far Side. Couldn't get me away
from that album. I think was the only thing I
listened to for a long time.

Speaker 11 (01:37:43):
That era.

Speaker 4 (01:37:45):
A lot of people forget, like I was really at
a sweet spot in my twenties, twenty three years old,
nineteen ninety two, about to be twenty three years old,
and think about exactly where music was at that point.

(01:38:06):
I tell this story all the time, so I hope
you'll indulge me as I tell it again.

Speaker 2 (01:38:11):
And I got thirty seconds to do it.

Speaker 4 (01:38:16):
It was such a sweet spot that you can be
a guy who listened to Sound Garden and NWA at
the same time.

Speaker 2 (01:38:28):
You could be listening to Wu Tang Clan.

Speaker 4 (01:38:31):
And Nirvana and no one would bat an eye. That's
how weird it was. It was just a weird place.
And the only time that I can honestly say was
similar to that had to have been in the sixties
in the early seventies.

Speaker 2 (01:38:50):
But there was so many music genres around, you had
your pick of the litter. It was amazing.

Speaker 4 (01:38:56):
People say that that's happening today, but I said, merely
doubt it. But no, I don't think funk is dead.
I just don't think that what Cool in the Gang
did his funk is around anymore. Let's get back to
Mark Christopher and a BPS trapping. So Mark, real quick,
would you say the funk of Parliament, the funk of
Cool in the Gang is similar in the funk grooves

(01:39:19):
today or even the bands today.

Speaker 5 (01:39:21):
Right?

Speaker 8 (01:39:21):
No, no, No, It's like nothing sounds like what it
did back then exactly. I'm thinking, like I'm thinking of
a song Outcast, I like the way.

Speaker 6 (01:39:31):
You move on.

Speaker 2 (01:39:31):
I think except Bruno Mars, he's only one to it.

Speaker 8 (01:39:34):
But no, there's nothing out there now that comes close
to that stuff exactly.

Speaker 4 (01:39:39):
And it was just so What I loved about it
was what Bootsy used to say about it. It was
so base heavy and it was so groovy.

Speaker 8 (01:39:47):
Man, it was just so groovy. I mean, I fell
in love with that kind of music. Earth Wound Fires
Gratitude album, which was a four was a two a
two record set, YEP. Three of it was live in
the fourth side was studio and they had like sing
a song and can't buy I Want Your Love and
I Can't Remember can't Can't Fight Love. Yeah, I Can't

(01:40:10):
Hide Love. That's what it was called. But that's kind
of where I that's kind of where I started listening
to that kind of music.

Speaker 2 (01:40:15):
And many were on that four disc.

Speaker 8 (01:40:18):
Do you think there was a lot of cuts on
the live Yeah, I would say like fourteen probably in
that probably in that neighborhood. Yeah, But that's the that
was the album that kind of drew me to that type.

Speaker 2 (01:40:29):
Of music and I've loved it every song Undeniable.

Speaker 8 (01:40:32):
Yeah, great stuff. And that was a writer around the
same time as Average White Band had the White Album.
So yeah, right in that area is where I kind
of jumped on and I still love that kind of music.

Speaker 1 (01:40:43):
Hey, the NAACP calls him, WHOA, I don't think.

Speaker 3 (01:40:49):
It's on the radio.

Speaker 1 (01:40:50):
Let's just say people are not fans news Talk w
T I soon.

Speaker 4 (01:40:56):
That's another thing that I need to make sure that
I get out there, because you guys know a lot
about me, and because I talk about myself some day
that much. One of the things that I love are
live bands. That was my thing, always was my thing.
It's how I met the Panics to do the you know,
the the opening song to this show. It's going to

(01:41:18):
see a live band, and you know, it's it's interesting
that when you can see because I don't one thing
I don't like about live bands is when they do
a very horrible rendition of a song I like, and
but when they do a great version of a song
that I like, that almost makes me like their version more.

Speaker 2 (01:41:41):
I'm all in and.

Speaker 4 (01:41:42):
That's my attraction to going to see live bands. So
Mattio is in the chatroom saying, oh, would I take
your oa to go see those live? But I can't wait, buddy,
don't You don't have to ask twice. I'm already in
your car. We're driving to wherever it is you want
to go, and we're going to see that band because
I love again, because.

Speaker 2 (01:41:58):
These guys are doing. Bands are an interesting thing. I'm
always I've always been in awe of guys who who
do that. They have that dream.

Speaker 4 (01:42:11):
Some of them just do it for the love, but
they have that dream of one day making it, even
if it's completely out of reach, but they love it
so much hope that just somebody will hear them perform,
listen to one of their songs and think that they've
got something.

Speaker 2 (01:42:29):
I just I know what that's like.

Speaker 4 (01:42:30):
When I was a kid, I wanted to be a musician.
I wanted to be a rapper. I wanted to be
a producer. And when I got turned down the first time,
I went to Warlock Records. You can look them up.
They've got a history. Their dad, Adam Levy's dad, you'll
know him. And I went to Adam Levy and I said,

(01:42:53):
you know, I got a demo. I want you guys
to hear it. I swore up and down Warlock Records
was gonna give me a shot.

Speaker 2 (01:43:00):
And they had me.

Speaker 4 (01:43:02):
Sit with this and R guy in a conference room
and we performed and we played our music and we
really thought we had we believed in ourselves like we
were sighted record labels listening to us. And we got
in that room and we put on the best performance
of it because we didn't just want to We didn't

(01:43:23):
just want to play a song. We wanted him to
have an experience like this is what it would be
like if you put us on stage and we treated
it like we were at Madison Square Garden.

Speaker 2 (01:43:32):
Boy did we perform.

Speaker 4 (01:43:36):
And to hear that guy look at me in nineteen
ninety seven, six ninety six, looked at me right in
my face and said, yeah, you guys aren't the You
guys aren't violent enough, to which I said what He goes, Yeah,
you're not slapping enough hose.

Speaker 2 (01:43:58):
And shooting them enough en words.

Speaker 4 (01:44:02):
And my response was that's not what we do, like,
we're not we're not pretending to be some sort of gangsters. Well, buddy,
that's what's selling. That's the music that's selling. And if
you could do that, maybe come on back, and I
remember walking out of here, I saying to myself, no,
I don't Nope, what do I want to talk about

(01:44:23):
that stuff for It's like that's phony, that's not not
even who I am. I want to talk about not
getting the girl. I want to be the out, like
being the outcat. So the far Side was again, that
was the group that I was obsessed with, trib call quests,
obsessed with those groups.

Speaker 2 (01:44:36):
I wanted to be more like them. They were my inspiration. Nope,
and that rejection killed me.

Speaker 4 (01:44:45):
And so I purchased my own studio and I pressed
my own tapes. I sold them out the back of
my backpack. So when I say bands and like live
bands and stuff like that, those guys who are selling
the CDs and have the t shirts Rosanna, I tell
you she's only been with me coming for a couple
of years. And ask any woman I've ever been with,
they'll tell you when Reese shows up and he sees
the band and he likes them.

Speaker 2 (01:45:07):
He supports them, and I do. I love a good
live band.

Speaker 4 (01:45:10):
I don't care how old you are, eighteen to eighty old,
crippling crazy if you are out there performing because you're
doing something I can't do.

Speaker 2 (01:45:18):
I was just pushing buttons and making beats.

Speaker 4 (01:45:20):
But you guys play guitar, play piano, play the drums,
things that I only wish that I could do.

Speaker 2 (01:45:28):
I sit there in awe, in an envy, a little
bit jealous of a lot.

Speaker 4 (01:45:33):
Of you, first of all, because I know that right now,
at that point, when you're on band, doesn't matter what
you look like.

Speaker 2 (01:45:39):
You were an absolute chick magnet.

Speaker 8 (01:45:41):
You know the deal.

Speaker 2 (01:45:42):
Come on, guys, quite of the reason why.

Speaker 6 (01:45:44):
You do it.

Speaker 4 (01:45:50):
So that's you know, I sit in awe that, and
I'm you know, I know what it's like to be
behind this microphone, so I know a little bit about
what it's like for you to be behind yours. Just
want to get that out there. Let's get to the phone,
the zero five two two w T I C. Let's
go to David windsor how are you, sir?

Speaker 6 (01:46:08):
I'm good? Reefs are you?

Speaker 2 (01:46:09):
I'm all right? What's up?

Speaker 6 (01:46:12):
Well?

Speaker 15 (01:46:12):
I want to let's circle back to the drug cartels
in the you know, blowing up the boats and so
on and so forth, which is you know, first of all,
I don't fully agree with it, because I think there
was already a system in place, us in the coastguards
and predict and so on and so forth. So with
that being said, you know, as far as drugs go,

(01:46:34):
as long as there's a demand and there's money to
be made, I don't know if they're going to make
much an event of it. But the other thing that
really gets me is you look at where the money goes.
And in October twenty four, TD Bank, that's only one
of quite a few hb HSBC Wacoba got nailed for

(01:46:56):
drug ar for money laundering a one point eight billion
dollars A fine, big deal. You know what, nobody want
the prison?

Speaker 6 (01:47:07):
Nobody right now if.

Speaker 15 (01:47:09):
They started sending the presidents and the CEOs and these
companies to prison for this money laundering because they don't
know that that kind of money's coming through their bank.
They're making special windows that actually take million dollar packages
or wrap money through it. They don't know that's going on.
And then they turn around and they get too money
couriers from Columbia and they nail them and they put

(01:47:30):
them in prison for five years for laundering a million dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:47:33):
Yeah, which is again nothing.

Speaker 15 (01:47:35):
Give me a break, Yeah, you know, let me can
I go to your until they follow the money to
the top and get these guys and throw them in
prison and stop it that way, because as long as
if you stop the money.

Speaker 4 (01:47:46):
Like you know, you don't have to tell you yeah, yeah,
the money. Yes, the money is always the key because
that's the motivation. Get rid of the motivation, or at
least interdict the motivation, and then of course everything else stops.

Speaker 2 (01:47:57):
But you gotta bring a good point. But you said
that the are you under.

Speaker 4 (01:48:00):
The impression, Dave, that the the bombing or the the
attacking of these coke boats as they've been referring to them.

Speaker 2 (01:48:09):
Do you think that this is like it's a.

Speaker 4 (01:48:12):
Meaningless operation, because uh, because in essence there was a
supply and demand issue here in the United States.

Speaker 15 (01:48:21):
Absolutely. I think it's they're always going to find a way, right, right, right,
I just found a tunnel that was ten miles below ground.
I mean, always going to find a way to bring
it in, right, as long as you have a demand.
And this goes back. Listen, man, I grew up in
the sixties when they were bringing weed in. Sure, it
just goes back forever. And as long as there's a
demand for drugs, there's going to be a way to

(01:48:42):
get it here, and the stuff that's coming across the
border in Mexico and that that's a bunch of well,
I mean, that's not the way this stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:48:48):
Is getting into the not anymore.

Speaker 4 (01:48:50):
You're right, that's a that's a very twentieth century means
of transporting drugs. Not that they not that they did
not use the southern border, but it's not in the
ways that was a very late nineties.

Speaker 2 (01:49:03):
Sort of operation those days are over.

Speaker 4 (01:49:06):
Getting drugs into the country now is far more right
now to the northern border has a much more porous,
uh sort of operation when it comes to things like fentanyl,
as opposed to the southern border that's pretty much been
wrapped up.

Speaker 15 (01:49:23):
I don't even I don't even buy the northern border.
It's coming into the port, it's coming into all other means.
It's coming into this country through actually kind of legal
force of entries.

Speaker 4 (01:49:33):
Yeah, it's you think shipping you should you think shipping
containers are a huge part of it.

Speaker 15 (01:49:39):
Yeah, absolutely so those types of volumes. You're not going
to drag that stuff across the border. There's no way.

Speaker 4 (01:49:44):
Yeah, I'm not I'm not of the I'm not of
the ilk that believes that it is. It's something that
that we can't put a considerable dent in. What I
would like is I want to see where this with
with the the coke boat stuff. I want to s
see what they where that leads because the part that
kind of bothers me about this Dave that I'm watching

(01:50:06):
is that it hasn't been this kind of deterrent because
you know what I mean, Like I would see, like
if I saw four or five boats getting exploded by
the you know, US military, I would think the next
time somebody asked me to get on a boat it
would be and I.

Speaker 2 (01:50:22):
Don't think so.

Speaker 4 (01:50:23):
But they still come because you know, even though they
know they're going to lose their life, which again for
me runs into another problem. How are they getting these
people to get on the boats knowing that their life
is at a greater risk today than it ever was.

Speaker 2 (01:50:39):
And that's probably because, as you say, or you suggest,
this far more coming in and this may be just
a distraction.

Speaker 15 (01:50:48):
Well not only that, but their life sucks.

Speaker 2 (01:50:53):
In these countries, That's true.

Speaker 15 (01:50:55):
They're living in poverty in these countries, and you know
they have i'm an opportunity to make money a lot
of these guys, don't. I mean, really, the shugglers are
the fisherman. There are all these guys that that either
that or the cartel forces them into doing something because
they're going to kill their family.

Speaker 2 (01:51:12):
Yeah, it's a great point.

Speaker 15 (01:51:13):
I mean, there's all these these other circumstances that's around us, right,
So it's not cutting dry, it's not blowing up a
few boats here. I mean to me, he let the
coastguard do their job, grab the stuff, see where they
come from. They were much more effective in learning the
chain of supply when they interredicted, rather than blowing them
out of the water. Because that's not going to stop

(01:51:34):
a couple of guys getting out of boat. There's just
too many of them.

Speaker 4 (01:51:37):
Yeah, that's like I said, I want to I want
to see the results of this. Look, I got to
get some other people in here, though, I promise. Man,
Thank you, man, I appreciate you. Let's go to Bob
in Berlin. How are you, sir.

Speaker 13 (01:51:50):
I'm looking at a twenty dollars bill, and I'm looking
at General President Andrew Jackson his Federal Reserve system, and
the federal reserve system isn't federal. It's a private bank.
Grand Paul and Representative Ron Paul worked their entire life

(01:52:11):
trying to audit and abolish the private federal reserve system.
The Federal reserver Central Bank probably came over from Europe
with the Colonies. In eighteen thirty two, Andrew Jackson abolished
the Central Bank, and it took seventy years the Central
Bank to re emerge. The Rockefeller family JP Morgan family

(01:52:35):
sent representatives on a train in nineteen thirteen down to
Jackal Island Club, Georgia. Deckel Island Club was an island
owned by the fifty most wealthy families in America.

Speaker 2 (01:52:46):
I remember the story, Jenkal Island.

Speaker 13 (01:52:49):
Is where they created the federal reserve system.

Speaker 11 (01:52:51):
That's all.

Speaker 4 (01:52:53):
Oh, okay, that was it? All right, well, thank you,
I appreciate it. I'm very abreast of the story. Thank you, sir.

Speaker 2 (01:52:58):
I appreciate you. But not least. Let's go to Fredie Middletown.

Speaker 10 (01:53:01):
How are you, sir, Hey, I'm good.

Speaker 3 (01:53:03):
Well, let's go.

Speaker 10 (01:53:04):
I'd like to go back to Dave Man. That's kind
of the point of the day. Yeah, I like blowing
boats up. But yeah, they know where the money's going,
they know what banks are.

Speaker 32 (01:53:14):
The money wanderers.

Speaker 4 (01:53:16):
That's right, and he's I think he's you know, he's
very over the target with you know this, there's such
a banking system that's involved in this, Like people think
that it's just cash on hand going back and forth.
Everyone knows it is without mistake that there are what's

(01:53:36):
called legitimate businesses that are hand in hand in the organization.
Because who doesn't have their hand in some of this, uh,
in some of these operations.

Speaker 2 (01:53:47):
They have to. It's too much money. It's just too
much money for them not to be involved.

Speaker 19 (01:53:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (01:53:53):
Oh, if you try to play it straight, you just
won't make it. So you got to do something and
then how far are you going to go?

Speaker 2 (01:53:58):
Indeed?

Speaker 10 (01:54:00):
Yeah, the real quick also with the no Kings. Okay,
Tom was Hitler, but who was Hitler? And then Hitler
Schmitler who is Hitler's banker, and that of course was
Scott Busch aka Grandpa Bush, you know, the.

Speaker 32 (01:54:13):
Nuremberg coat child, just like the uh, you know the
drugs saying they didn't go far enough. They stopped before
they got.

Speaker 10 (01:54:22):
To a whole bunch of people.

Speaker 2 (01:54:24):
Isn't it interesting that they stopped it?

Speaker 4 (01:54:26):
They stopped when when the country or the world, for
that matter, had enough of it. And when that malaise,
if you will stopped, so will I disagree?

Speaker 32 (01:54:38):
Two other quick closing things, uh the song don't call Us,
Don't call You by Sugarlows, and I want to give
like that material with the uh you better not cut off.

Speaker 10 (01:54:50):
My food stamps. That's gold. I swear, that's just going
too far stuff. And the other thing, in all seriousness,
I spend the dial in the morning, you know, and
goes Torshall.

Speaker 32 (01:55:01):
I go over to Uh, I catch uh what's his
name for sports? Your guy there, Matt Okay, And so
I'm constantly catching.

Speaker 10 (01:55:09):
Gary Byron has great callers. She's got Greg from Plainfild,
a man with five range. But also he and imagine
this in all capitals, he still takes Mark from West
Hartford's call. I'm just thinking he deserves credit for that.
Mark calls off and goes pitfull on his gat.

Speaker 2 (01:55:27):
And Mark because Mark, Mark is a very dude man.
I just I love that guy. But thank you, I
appreciate you.

Speaker 5 (01:55:40):
I love it.

Speaker 2 (01:55:41):
He's the best at it, Mark, It's the best at it.
He's not even a troll. He's just a bulldog. I
told you that let's get another checker, weather or traffic.
We'll be back. Hollywood News coming up. Here's Mark Christopher.
He's in a BPS traffic center.

Speaker 8 (01:55:57):
Hey, Mark, best investigated reporter and the state.

Speaker 2 (01:56:00):
Damn right.

Speaker 8 (01:56:01):
It does not even being paid by a media outlet.
That's right. Unless Reese on the radio. Guys, that man's
got a pensioned Yeah, yes, yes.

Speaker 1 (01:56:10):
He does the hour the bags out punch. It's Reese
on the radio on w t i C News Talk
ten eighty.

Speaker 4 (01:56:19):
All right, well, get on the phones if you want to.
It's eight sex zero five two two w A T
I see, let's do the thing.

Speaker 2 (01:56:29):
It's Hollywood News with your colors.

Speaker 4 (01:56:34):
Smollet already on the radio. All the clicks and all
the glamor. It's Hollywood News today on Hollywood News.

Speaker 2 (01:56:47):
I don't know if you know this. A little fun fact.
The movie Heat, starring.

Speaker 4 (01:56:52):
Robert de Niro and Al Pacino, is actually a remake
of a film called l a Takedown. Both were directed
by Michael Mann, but instead of remaking the movie again,
Michael Man has decided to do the unthinkable. He is
making a sequel called Heat two. Tentatively it is Heat two,

(01:57:16):
but he's not bringing al Pacino back. I read a
report that said he was al Pacino's not coming back,
and I don't believe Robert de Niroz. These guys look
way too old to be in the movie where they're
gonna be running through the street firing guns. I don't
think anybody believes it. So when I went to go
look into it, this was interesting. Try this on for size, folks,
and I know the guys you may have some problems

(01:57:36):
with this. It's got an all star cast. Check out
this lineup for Heat two. Leonardo DiCaprio, Bradley Cooper, Adam Driver,
and Austin Butler, the guy who played Elvis in the
Last movie, which, by the way, was such a damn
good movie. That Elvis movie was the best Elvis movie

(01:57:57):
I've ever seen. But I'm a big Elvis fan.

Speaker 2 (01:58:00):
I love that.

Speaker 4 (01:58:00):
Particular perspective because they talked about the Elvis lounge singer,
you know, in Las Vegas years. That's why that movie
was so good. Yeah, so Heat too. Leonardo DiCaprio, Austin Butler,
Bradley Cooper, and Adam Driver and Michael Mann is coming
back to direct record.

Speaker 2 (01:58:20):
I think the guy is kind of like that.

Speaker 4 (01:58:21):
It's got another check on trafficking weather with Mark Christopher
in a BPS traffic center. I don't think you ever
saw a heat that was in the early two thousand.
You didn't see that one. You have to see that.
It's Robert de Muro and Alpercino.

Speaker 8 (01:58:34):
Yeah, that's pretty good.

Speaker 2 (01:58:35):
Like they had not started. I know you saw Donny bros.
It's close, but I mean, think about it. It's Robert
de Niro and and and al Pacino.

Speaker 4 (01:58:45):
They had never started a film together other than Godfather too,
and they were never in the same scene together because
it takes place in the past.

Speaker 2 (01:58:52):
And the president.

Speaker 4 (01:58:53):
Okay, yeah, so that's the reason why the heat is
so significant. It was the first time these two were
ever in a movie together. That's the significance of the movie.

Speaker 8 (01:59:03):
You know, you know your music, your politics.

Speaker 2 (01:59:05):
I'm trying your movie. You know, man, you are at
least you're not I'm not a one trick pony.

Speaker 8 (01:59:12):
I'm so happy that that's true. That's true. Nobody will
ever excuse you that Reece, you're a renaissance man.

Speaker 2 (01:59:18):
It's race on the radio on news w T. I see.
I can't believe that I'm actually going to play this.
I'll get to the phones in the second.

Speaker 4 (01:59:27):
But if you guys been watching national politics, you know
that there are gubernatorial races in New Jersey and in Virginia.

Speaker 2 (01:59:38):
And in Virginia.

Speaker 4 (01:59:42):
Democrats are running Abigail Spamberger. I don't know a little
bit about her, having lived in Virginia. And if you've
been paying attention, you know that Abigail Spamberger is running
against the lieutenant governor currently her name is win some seers.

(02:00:04):
She is a black woman, and she has been again
the lieutenant governor. So imagine the premier politics show on
MSNBC called Morning Joke, where all the politicians go to
go talk about politics. It's the most important show in Washington.

(02:00:28):
And then to hear this about why Abigail Spamberger is
struggling in her gubernatorial race, it really is incredible.

Speaker 33 (02:00:38):
And you have Abigail Spanberg or Mikey Cheryl, her background,
all the different jobs that she has held in the military,
and also like Elissa Slotkin, I mean, my god, these
women are incredible. And to them I would say, fight, fight, fight,
because we need them, we need them.

Speaker 31 (02:00:59):
And Mikey is like she's doing a ton of interviews
you know when I talked to that, when I was
in the car, you know, was this car she had
gone from interview to interview to talk to talk to
But you know, you still see the anxiety.

Speaker 30 (02:01:12):
Yeah, Cheryl did have a few missteps in her campaign,
but she still has, as you say, about a five
or six point ly propolling Spanburger's lead in Virginia a
little bigger than that, but you know, both still competitive
races here heading into the last.

Speaker 2 (02:01:23):
Couple of weeks.

Speaker 30 (02:01:24):
But to Mika Tomalley's point, I mean, this is something
that a lot of Democrats are grappling with right now.
They've nominated women two of the last three elections for
the presidency, lost both. There are some who say, well,
we can't do that again, the stakes are too high.
But of course that does fall into the same misogyistic trap.

Speaker 33 (02:01:40):
Other countries have no problem electing women.

Speaker 4 (02:01:46):
So when talking about this, she says, Abigail Spamberg is
having a hard time in her election.

Speaker 2 (02:01:53):
Because she's a woman. The person she's running again and
is a woman.

Speaker 4 (02:02:04):
They're trying to suggest that Spamburger is having a problem
because she's running as well. Again, I could nothing could
be more laughable George is on the line.

Speaker 2 (02:02:14):
What's going on, Georgie?

Speaker 5 (02:02:17):
This this is important. You could die if you don't.

Speaker 2 (02:02:23):
All right, don't scare me like that now.

Speaker 5 (02:02:24):
My recommendation. Yeah, we just we just had a furnace inspection, okay,
And and they found that the heat exchanger was all rusted.
If you a heat exchanger, if you intertwine your fingers
together to the left hand with the right hand okay, okay,
the hot flue gases, let's say that's on your left hand,

(02:02:48):
exchanges exchanges heat between your your ventilation system, your indoor
ventilation system. That's how basically how this works. Over over time,
you get wine scale or a corrosive build up, and
that that heat exchanger the wall. You end up getting

(02:03:11):
hot flu gases in your ventilation system. What happens is
you can come down with carbon monoxide and CO two
poisonings because those hot flu gases are getting into your
ventilation system. We're having we're having our furnace replaced.

Speaker 8 (02:03:30):
Really, they took a picture.

Speaker 5 (02:03:31):
They took a picture of our heat exchanger and it's shot,
it's all rusted out.

Speaker 2 (02:03:38):
Do you mind if I ask how do you mind
if I ask how old it is, How old of
a unit is it.

Speaker 5 (02:03:44):
It's twenty years old. But they recommend that you have
an inspection, a furnace inspection.

Speaker 8 (02:03:49):
At least every five years, gotcha.

Speaker 5 (02:03:52):
So the life of the furnaces, they say, is usually
about twelve years. So we we it's pretty much played out.
Now we're in for uh, I understand, a pretty severe winner.
So your furnaces are gonna be you know, spending spending
their guts out, pumping their guts out. And if if

(02:04:17):
you know, if it's defective, you're you're gonna be You're
gonna be breathing those hot carbon monoxide and CEO two
gases all winter.

Speaker 4 (02:04:28):
And this is this is important for you to have
one of those detectors in the house as well.

Speaker 8 (02:04:32):
George wou Well, yeah, yeah, yeah, if you have them.

Speaker 5 (02:04:36):
Yeah, but well here's you know, here's here's the deal.
If if you if you feel nauseous, you're throwing up,
you get headaches, and it's not.

Speaker 2 (02:04:48):
Your wife's cooking.

Speaker 6 (02:04:49):
Those are all yeah, those.

Speaker 5 (02:04:50):
Are all the symptoms are all the symptoms of breathing
those noxious, poisonous flue gases. So additionally, additionally, your skin
in the winter can dry up.

Speaker 2 (02:05:05):
Like a lizard.

Speaker 6 (02:05:06):
So they recommend that you.

Speaker 5 (02:05:08):
Get a humidifier and set it at about thirty five
percent humidity, so at least also that that helps your
breathing as well your respiration and everything else.

Speaker 4 (02:05:21):
Well, George, I'm glad you caught it. I'm glad you
guys are safe. How long is it going to take
to replace.

Speaker 5 (02:05:27):
Four hours? Are doing it tomorrow?

Speaker 2 (02:05:29):
Okay? All right, Well I thought it was going to
be something lengthy, but four hours.

Speaker 8 (02:05:33):
Okay.

Speaker 5 (02:05:33):
Anyway, I actually call the last two days. I'm trying
to get people to if you haven't had a furnace inspection,
to do it soon.

Speaker 2 (02:05:45):
They are all listening now. Thank you, George, much appreciate it, man,
and good luck to you. If you didn't join us.

Speaker 4 (02:05:53):
At the top of the hour, I will recap most
of the stuff that we talked about in what had
happened was and the last break of the show. But
if you want to call it in you can't. It's
zero five two two WTI s. It's zero five two
two nine to eight four two. Again, you can go
to my ex account and I talk a little bit

(02:06:14):
about it at the beginning of the show, talking about
how we spoke to one of the individuals, a part
of a NGO that's supposed to be helping illegals in
Connecticut so that they are not detained by ICE, and
they revealed to me in a conversation I have with
them last night that I taped and have a transcript
to that the police department, the dispatchers, when they receive

(02:06:41):
a notice from ICE that they are coming into town,
that information is usually leaked to these organizations so that
they can inform illegals that are at work, so they
can get to them and hide the individuals. These were
their words, not mine. I am not suggesting they were said.

Speaker 2 (02:06:59):
This is what was said.

Speaker 4 (02:07:02):
And they did a protest yesterday outside the Hamden Police Department.
That didn't make any sense to me, but from what
we learned, that's what they were protesting that they did
not get a heads up from the police department to
let them know that ICE was coming. And I guess
it is commonplace as this. And another part about this,
which is also interesting.

Speaker 8 (02:07:23):
Is that what.

Speaker 2 (02:07:25):
John says to me here.

Speaker 4 (02:07:28):
Is that other towns, for lack of a better word,
comply to this arrangement. So it's not just hamd It
They have a relationship with all the jurisdictions where these
folks are that when Ice calls, they do their due diligence. Hey,

(02:07:52):
we've got undercover coming through. If you see us, you
hear tires, you know, screeching or anything you see. A
bunch of mass guys were coming in. We're going to
this location. Another interesting part of this story that was
in the NPR piece was that they were complaining that
there was not an accurate telling of which location they

(02:08:14):
were going to. They only gave cross streets, which again,
do you think we're not going to read between the lines.
Why would you be asking for accurate locations other than
to thwart ice to harbor illegals. He also told me
about Victor Velasquez. He has met with him. He's only

(02:08:36):
met with him once. He's not much of a talker.
He's very quiet. He doesn't want to get involved. I'm
not sure why he wouldn't want to get involved. I
even wu you know what, hold on, let me see
if I could get to that point. That was an
interesting question I asked, Because this was I didn't think

(02:09:00):
I would get an answer from him, but I thought
it was interesting.

Speaker 2 (02:09:06):
I had asked about whether or not victor.

Speaker 4 (02:09:11):
Was evading taxes and if that was important to him
by hiring these individuals.

Speaker 2 (02:09:22):
He also suggested.

Speaker 4 (02:09:26):
That they had people who told them that they had
signed up to become members of ICE.

Speaker 2 (02:09:36):
And that they were going to be paid as much
as sixty.

Speaker 4 (02:09:38):
Thousand dollars a year and they get a one thousand
dollars bonus for each person that they detained.

Speaker 2 (02:09:47):
He said that as well.

Speaker 4 (02:09:52):
But I did go on to ask him about mister
Velasquez and him evading taxes. I'm trying to find that
he didn't seem to have much concern about that, because.

Speaker 2 (02:10:03):
That's, you know, so what, no big deal.

Speaker 4 (02:10:06):
He did make it clear that Velasquez was just going to,
you know, probably find some other people to replace those
who were removed. But they're very upset about it, and
they're using the same by the way, they all have
the same talking points. Kidnapping is the word that they
are using. They're kidnapping, they're kidnapping.

Speaker 2 (02:10:28):
And this other word.

Speaker 4 (02:10:29):
You notice they haven't been using due process anymore because
that's been and I told you guys that that was
going to end up dying, because if you're detaining them
and they're going to have or hearing that's the due process.
So now they have a problem with you catching them
at all because due process is no longer something to
use as a talking point.

Speaker 2 (02:10:51):
Now.

Speaker 4 (02:10:51):
The other thing is that they're trying to do is
like they don't have the proper training is another one.

Speaker 2 (02:10:55):
I was like, well, do I really need training in
the No, I'm kidding. Of course I'd be training.

Speaker 4 (02:11:05):
But now to suggest that they don't have the proper
training is just ridiculous. And I think that's what the
big problem with that is is that more people have
heard that their recruiting numbers are through the roof. I
think that last totally we were somewhere around one hundred
and eighty thousand new recruits or new applications to become

(02:11:25):
ICE agents.

Speaker 2 (02:11:27):
And that's what bothers them.

Speaker 4 (02:11:29):
So now they're turning it into oh, they're not they're
not well trained, all that stuff. What's going on, Joe, Well.

Speaker 6 (02:11:38):
I'll tell you what I'm thinking about the whole situation.

Speaker 10 (02:11:41):
I'm sorry you're going to have to hear it.

Speaker 9 (02:11:44):
It's if they would allow this kind of stuff where
they where they work against ICE, if they allow the
local neighborhood cops to do their job, they will know
in finer detail who is who, because when Ice comes.

Speaker 34 (02:12:03):
In, they throw a big net.

Speaker 9 (02:12:05):
Yeah, because they don't know who these people are. So
they're taking everybody.

Speaker 34 (02:12:09):
And then you hear them complaining, oh, they're.

Speaker 9 (02:12:13):
Arresting American citizens. Well, maybe they were in the wrong
place at the wrong time, and now they're you know,
because you're not letting the cops do their job to
separate these people, put them in.

Speaker 10 (02:12:27):
A cell where they have to wait for Ice to
come and collect them.

Speaker 9 (02:12:32):
You know, this is what's going to happen, you know,
not ICE's fault. It's not the cops fault. It's whoever's
running the state. It's their fault, and they're doing it.

Speaker 3 (02:12:45):
As far as I.

Speaker 34 (02:12:45):
Can hear what you spoke about with Camden and the
mayor and what before that happened in Newington. You know,
Connecticut and their governor is not admitting that their sanctuary
state like places like Fritzger Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:13:06):
In Illinois.

Speaker 4 (02:13:07):
But this is far worse, Joe, Joe, this is far
worse than sanctuary right because in in essence, right when
you say you're a sanctuary state, they you know, they
do the whole don't ask, don't tell we don't know
who they are, but you know, we're gonna give them
save harbor.

Speaker 2 (02:13:20):
We're not gonna you.

Speaker 4 (02:13:21):
Know, we're not gonna find out who they are because
if we don't know, then we don't you know, we
don't assist anybody in getting them out of here. But
now we know, according to this activist group, that there
are public officials, people who are hired to protect the
average citizens, American citizens in Connecticut, who are now aiding
in a bedding and getting these guys to go run
and hide. That's beyond the pale of being a sanctuary city.

(02:13:44):
Now it's assistant.

Speaker 6 (02:13:46):
Oh yeah, and it's also like it's illegal.

Speaker 2 (02:13:50):
Yeah, I mean, I listened to you.

Speaker 9 (02:13:52):
I love listening to.

Speaker 8 (02:13:53):
Mark Levin, Oh my god.

Speaker 10 (02:13:56):
And I love it when he starts yelling and he
gets you.

Speaker 2 (02:13:58):
Are you a fan of the yelling? People get mad
at me for yelling. You like the yelling?

Speaker 8 (02:14:03):
No, I love the excitement.

Speaker 6 (02:14:05):
I'm going, Oh, he's on the roll, turn it up.

Speaker 5 (02:14:08):
Yeah, I hear, and you know.

Speaker 6 (02:14:11):
But he's uh, and he's and he said it's illegal.

Speaker 9 (02:14:15):
It's not constitutionalists where you're going against the laws.

Speaker 2 (02:14:20):
That's right. Thank you, Joe. I appreciate you shirt. Thank
you so much. Man, you got it.

Speaker 4 (02:14:24):
Hey, listen to me and marko Levin not bad company.
Let's get another check of traffic. Good weather, Mark Christopher's

one of his all time favorite movies. He listens to
us every afternoon.

Speaker 6 (02:14:42):
But what was it?

Speaker 2 (02:14:42):
He said he was his all time favorite movie.

Speaker 8 (02:14:45):
He said, it's one of my all time favorite movies. Great,
Dicky Bidwell, who listens to you. I'm gonna have to

Speaker 4 (02:15:12):
Stand by in a little bit, We're gonna play that
montage of folks who are concerned about EBT cards going
blank on November one. It couldn't happen at a better time,
since I'll be in town right before then.

Speaker 2 (02:15:28):
I can't now.

Speaker 4 (02:15:29):
I can't wait forgot about I. I just can't wait.
I want to talk a little bit about that. On
the other side, White MIC's.

Speaker 13 (02:15:34):
On the line.

Speaker 4 (02:15:34):
I'll get to him in a second as well. But
there's another thing. A lot of you mentioned it in
the chat room when I played it earlier, Like a
lot of them said, now, one of those folks thought
that it was an option to actually go out and work.
The only thing they wanted to do was to complain.
But there's another thing that also didn't happen. While all
of these videos are coming out, these videos are going viral,

(02:15:57):
every one of them, of these people agreement and hollering
about the EBT cars not working on November first, And
there's one very obvious thing and it goes right to
the No Kings rally that was Saturday. So we'll talk
about that a little bit. I want to make a
mention of this. Nancy sent me a message. Nancy, you

(02:16:18):
are brilliant because you have no idea how bad I
want to see this. So Nancy just mentioned Playhouse on Park,
which is a jam session that is a reenactment of Elvis,
Jerry Lee Lewis, Connie, Johnny Cash and Carl Perkins, and

(02:16:43):
I loved that jam, that jam session.

Speaker 13 (02:16:48):
It is.

Speaker 4 (02:16:51):
In the fact that there's going to be there's a
reenactment for it. Thank you for sending this to me,
and it's going to be. It's going to happen or
it runs until at least I get into and I
will be there. I'm gonna try my best to be
there on the weekend, maybe a Friday or Saturday. I
haven't decided yet, but thank you for sending this to me.
And I hope you sent it to me because you

(02:17:12):
know that I love Elvis, I really do. The other
guys are all great, don't get me wrong. I love
Johnny Cash too, but as you guys know, I love Elvis.
So in this jam session, from what I know, well,
it's a good session.

Speaker 2 (02:17:28):
That's all even know. But if they do sort of
a reenactment of it, I want to check it out.

Speaker 8 (02:17:33):
So thank you, Nancy.

Speaker 2 (02:17:34):
I appreciate you sending me that as well.

Speaker 4 (02:17:36):
Let's get another checker whether in traffick Mark, Christopher, he's
gonna beps traffic center.

Speaker 2 (02:17:40):
Hey, Mark, what's up? Everybody? You know who it is?

Speaker 6 (02:17:43):
Who is you know?

Speaker 2 (02:17:44):
It's rest on the radio. Frederick Douglass of the twenty
first century.

Speaker 4 (02:17:49):
It's w T i C.

Speaker 2 (02:17:51):
News Talk. Hey, Dicky Bidwell just sent a shout out
to me. Thank you, buddy.

Speaker 4 (02:17:56):
Yeah, Heat, one of your favorite movies came out in
nineteen ninety five. You know, it was one of those
films that you had to go see just because those
two icons were in it.

Speaker 2 (02:18:07):
And I talked about this a couple of weeks ago
that seen that movie.

Speaker 4 (02:18:12):
I thought it was odd when I went to see it,
and Dicky, you'll probably remember this, and you're probably thinking
to yourself if you were in the theater.

Speaker 2 (02:18:20):
The part that bothered me the most, and I still
complained about it.

Speaker 4 (02:18:26):
Was I went, why does it sound like the guns
are louder than they should be? And then of course
I go to IMDb many many years later and go
to look this up, and it turns out Michael Mann
had done that on purpose.

Speaker 6 (02:18:43):
In the editing.

Speaker 4 (02:18:44):
They turned the volume of the guns up in the film.
It's on purpose, I guess, so you could feel immersed
in the gunfight.

Speaker 13 (02:18:56):
No.

Speaker 2 (02:18:56):
I was more concerned about tonight this than anything.

Speaker 6 (02:18:59):
It was.

Speaker 2 (02:19:00):
It was just loud in that theater, just loud.

Speaker 4 (02:19:06):
It's just like goodness, gracious, I will say this, but
you know, before I get to the EBT thing, No,
that's not important. It's about a stupid movie that I
know they're doing a sequel to, and I've talked about
it enough times anyway, if you missed it, EBT, Apparently

(02:19:27):
on November first, people are not going to be able
to get their EBT cards, and folks are none too
happy about it. Here's some of what I played earlier
in two super cuts called no food Stamps.

Speaker 20 (02:19:41):
If they take away snap benefits in the November and December,
y'all better be stealing from walmarts, big corporations, whole foods,
stay away from the small stores and family owned stuff.

Speaker 21 (02:19:53):
Donald Chop done. Let's just make it clear.

Speaker 22 (02:19:57):
Okay, he talking about people ain't getting food stamps and
November and probably not December.

Speaker 21 (02:20:02):
He better get ready because it's about the go down. Okay.
What you're gonna learn is you don't play with black
people's foods, damn.

Speaker 4 (02:20:08):
So you know the part that gets to be like
really really like jazzer sized is that when people say
that I'm the one saying mean spirited, ignorant things, and.

Speaker 2 (02:20:25):
Then I play this and that nobody looks at them
and goes, goodness, gracious, what's wrong with you? What is
wrong with you? No one ever holds that savage to account.

Speaker 23 (02:20:39):
Okay, damn, mister Trump, I don't care nothing about what
you be a little side piece. Miss Argentina got going on. Okay,
release my food stimps. I got eight kids to feed.
Release my food stimps.

Speaker 8 (02:20:53):
I need a refund immediately.

Speaker 4 (02:20:55):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (02:20:56):
The audacity of these folks, the audacity.

Speaker 28 (02:21:00):
You know what, since they want to take food stamps away,
I'm going to Walmart. I'm going to rig up any
downdown won't run in the basket and women right about
we will get my way.

Speaker 2 (02:21:11):
I'm not paying for a damn thing. I was strolling
to thiktok and I just saw that.

Speaker 17 (02:21:17):
Next month, us lower class people, you know, our lower class.

Speaker 2 (02:21:24):
We ain't gonna get all my peopleod stamps.

Speaker 17 (02:21:26):
Let me tell you, you don't how many people I
have seen saying they're gonna go to Walmart and steal like.

Speaker 6 (02:21:34):
They don't know that we don't.

Speaker 7 (02:21:35):
I'm probably gonna push all off. But I said it
before and I'm gonna say it again. Rich people should
have no say, and how people who receive food stamps
spend their food stamps. People who are not food stamp
recipients should not have a say and how food stamp
recipients spend their food stamps. People who have never had
to survive on food stamps should not have a say,

(02:21:58):
and how people who received food stamps spend their food stamps.

Speaker 5 (02:22:02):
I did.

Speaker 4 (02:22:04):
All of that, been on food stamps, haven't had to
rely on food stamps, and I think I have a say.

Speaker 19 (02:22:13):
I got an email from EBT. I used to get
seven hundred and forty dollars a month for my two
kids and we're not getting EBT. No morning took to EBT.
They saying I gotta work twenty hours a week. I'm
not working for nobody. Get the fuck out of here.

Speaker 21 (02:22:31):
This is what Americans taxpayer work for.

Speaker 5 (02:22:35):
For us.

Speaker 2 (02:22:36):
They work for me.

Speaker 4 (02:22:37):
Don't you ever ask yourself, like, like, is there a
part of you to ask yourself? When you hear that,
you go, he's got to be joking, right, Like this
is satire. There's nothing real about this, Like I are
they just doing it for clicks? They're not, Like that's
not a real attitude, is it.

Speaker 19 (02:22:55):
They gotta help me be my kids get the body here.
You know what I'm saying, like, don't be with is now? Yea,
I've been helping us all this time. Now y'all want
to tap out? Get the guy here. I want my EBT. Yup,
I want my EBT and I'm not working for nobody.
I'm a working boss.

Speaker 2 (02:23:13):
It's gotta be satire, right, It's God, It's no way
that's real. He's saying, I'm a boss.

Speaker 21 (02:23:22):
What the I looks like working when the government is
here to help.

Speaker 29 (02:23:26):
So my sister made a video about how my whole
entire family gets EBT and everyone is calling us bombs
because we don't work and we live off the government.

Speaker 2 (02:23:36):
No, it's because you don't work, and we are proud
of that.

Speaker 29 (02:23:39):
Growing up, this is what we were taught. We were
taught to not have to work. We were taught to
live off the government because it is there for us
to use. And from what I could remember, it all
started back with my grandparents. My grandparents used to get
the paper, like the paper coupons to go and pay
for you know, food and stuff like that. And that's
when I was like, this is free money, like what

(02:24:02):
so living off of EBT is literally a tradition in
our family.

Speaker 2 (02:24:10):
Fast down from generation to generation. That's tradition.

Speaker 6 (02:24:18):
That's it.

Speaker 4 (02:24:20):
I can't. Yeah, I know you're asking yourself. It's no
way that we're being punked. There's just no way. These
real people are out there. But I'm gonna take this
point before we get out of here. I just wanna
make this point. These videos are everywhere on x you
can find them yourself.

Speaker 2 (02:24:37):
They're easy to find. They're on TikTok, they're everywhere.

Speaker 4 (02:24:40):
They are trending all of these folks thirty eight thousand
and more views, and people are loving it.

Speaker 2 (02:24:47):
That's right, you tell them.

Speaker 4 (02:24:51):
So while these things are going viral and the rest
of us are looking at it and going, what, here's
the thing you won't see see Because I even got
chided for playing this a little while ago. So I
just said, do you know which people are on food stamps?
More said, I don't care, they're bums.

Speaker 2 (02:25:12):
The thing that you won't hear.

Speaker 4 (02:25:15):
Aside from your outrage, and you will, all of you
will just go what the hell. But you know what
you haven't heard yet. You haven't heard anybody from the
No Kings rallies. You haven't heard liberals. You haven't heard
leftists the mom Donnie Croud. Have you heard anybody come
to their aid. Don't worry, sister girl, we got you.

(02:25:38):
I don't hear anybody putting up any any gofundmes, no crowdsourcing.
These folks aren't gonna get fed on November first? Where's
all the compassion? Y'all told us the reason why we
need to be eradicated, the reason why we're evil hitler
Nazi types is because we don't have any compassion. And
hear these people saying that they are willing to risk

(02:26:01):
their freedom to go get food at the shop right
the walmart, wherever it is that they get their groceries.
They are willing to risk life and limb to go
steal so they can feed their babies. And not one
of you was stepped up. Where are you, Rosa Deloro?

Speaker 6 (02:26:20):
No?

Speaker 4 (02:26:21):
I hear you putting our press release talking about don't
touch my illegals. I haven't heard anybody talking about what
what are they going to do to feed these folks
on food stamps?

Speaker 2 (02:26:31):
Nothing? Where's the compassion? Weird? Just weird? I tell you
it's gonna fill the Marlborough Hello.

Speaker 6 (02:26:38):
Sir, Hey, Hey, how you doing read.

Speaker 11 (02:26:42):
I really didn't think it was for real.

Speaker 2 (02:26:45):
That sounds crazy, doesn't it.

Speaker 15 (02:26:48):
I got so much to say on each and every
one of them.

Speaker 11 (02:26:50):
I don't know where to start.

Speaker 21 (02:26:52):
I'll make it quick.

Speaker 1 (02:26:53):
I'll make it quick because I'm just frazzled.

Speaker 5 (02:26:56):
Uh huh that guy that gentleman to tell me I
work for him?

Speaker 8 (02:27:00):
Yeah, I'm after yourself.

Speaker 12 (02:27:02):
I'm not getting a job.

Speaker 11 (02:27:03):
I mean, I don't work for you, buddy.

Speaker 2 (02:27:08):
How are you not, Phil? When you heard that?

Speaker 4 (02:27:11):
I can hear it in your voice now, because you're
little flustered. Aren't you completely angry at that guy? Like
aren't you like what are you insane?

Speaker 6 (02:27:22):
Yeah?

Speaker 15 (02:27:22):
It's it's like, uh, you gotta take a look at
yourself in the mirror and rethink.

Speaker 3 (02:27:27):
That whole thing. It's just not right.

Speaker 15 (02:27:31):
I mean, how you just just the way they presented themselves.

Speaker 4 (02:27:36):
Just exactly the fact that they are so indignant about
having to work or defend for themselves.

Speaker 2 (02:27:46):
It is I'm completely I'm flummixed. I don't even know
what this. I don't even know what to.

Speaker 28 (02:27:51):
Say me neither.

Speaker 6 (02:27:53):
I shouldn't even be driving right now, Phil, be careful
out there. Yeah, this is what the government's for.

Speaker 2 (02:28:02):
That's right, that's right. This is again, this is what
government gets you.

Speaker 4 (02:28:08):
I'm sorry, no, no, I was gonna say, this is
what government gets you, government's intervention in their daily lives.

Speaker 2 (02:28:15):
This is how they respond.

Speaker 4 (02:28:17):
No thanks, no thank you, no gratitude, no grace, because
as soon as it's cut off, they immediately threatened they're
going to rob the place.

Speaker 2 (02:28:26):
It's it's absolutely incredible.

Speaker 11 (02:28:29):
Got health help the one.

Speaker 3 (02:28:35):
In there.

Speaker 4 (02:28:36):
Remember, yeah, the young lady said, lock your cars and
lock your doors, don't keep anything open.

Speaker 2 (02:28:43):
That's just yeah.

Speaker 6 (02:28:45):
And again two kids, because I was a place.

Speaker 2 (02:28:53):
And that's long and that's again.

Speaker 4 (02:28:58):
And somebody was saying that in the chat room, Phil
is that it's supposed to be used as a step up,
not a dependence. Like it's not a lifestyle, and these
guys have turned it into a lifestyle.

Speaker 2 (02:29:10):
Of course, they don't know what they do with themselves
when it.

Speaker 6 (02:29:12):
Gets cut off, right right, right, I don't know, it's.

Speaker 3 (02:29:17):
Just it is.

Speaker 2 (02:29:20):
Thank you, Phil.

Speaker 4 (02:29:20):
I appreciate you, sir. Yeah, there you go with real stuff.
I wish it was phony, but it's real.

Speaker 2 (02:29:26):
Thank you, Phil.

Speaker 4 (02:29:28):
I think the only perfect person for a time like this,
And that's the reason why I waited, white Mike.

Speaker 2 (02:29:35):
Is on the line. By the way, Mike, even Roseanna
is saying your name like that, she goes white Mike.
I've been saying it that way forever.

Speaker 3 (02:29:44):
Well, dude, I was gonna talk to you about my business.
I work at being sold to a corporation and the
DEI videos I have to watch.

Speaker 6 (02:29:56):
Here's a good one.

Speaker 3 (02:29:57):
They have these suid videos and there was a test
to take on identifying different types of bias and I
got one hundred percent without watching.

Speaker 6 (02:30:06):
The videos because I do all that life.

Speaker 3 (02:30:12):
And my coworker was was shocked.

Speaker 15 (02:30:14):
My Puerto Rican cool coworker.

Speaker 6 (02:30:15):
Was like, how did you get all that right? I said,
because I do all that stuff. These people do that
the human nature.

Speaker 3 (02:30:22):
But I'm watching these people.

Speaker 6 (02:30:24):
I'm listening to your listeners.

Speaker 3 (02:30:26):
And they're saying that they didn't think these videos of
the Shanika was in Schekuanda's and Loupees written in to
Luke the.

Speaker 32 (02:30:32):
Place for real, And I'm like, why don't you think
it's real?

Speaker 15 (02:30:36):
They do that all the damn times.

Speaker 4 (02:30:38):
That's new, That's right, it's always the behavior, right. The
behavior is already in existence.

Speaker 8 (02:30:45):
This is not new.

Speaker 3 (02:30:47):
You know. If I was going to open a store
and wanted it to not be robbed. I would open
Mike's Sunscreen Emporium and I could pretty much have the
honor system.

Speaker 11 (02:30:57):
But I hope these people do it.

Speaker 3 (02:31:01):
I hope they do start Robin because Walmart's not gonna play.
I'll tell you a storyer real quick. A local veterinarian
in my area shoplifted a rumba, walked out with a rumba.

Speaker 21 (02:31:11):
Wow.

Speaker 15 (02:31:12):
They went to her house and got her.

Speaker 3 (02:31:14):
They know who she was. They have video cameras in
the parking lotch they have you on video at check out.
They're gonna get you. Not getting away with this. So
I look forward to seeing all these people getting phone
in jail.

Speaker 6 (02:31:25):
I hope they do it in red states, in.

Speaker 3 (02:31:27):
Red cities, and we have a wave of that because
combining losing EBT with the ascendants of the badass white
boys in NBA is gonna be sad Brothers And they
tell you what buddy you got, you got the Joker,
you got Luca, you got this Johnny Bunky kid, you
got the kid in Chicago, Natos, you got Cooper coming

(02:31:49):
in tonight. It's got to be bad times for the Brothers.

Speaker 8 (02:31:53):
This might be it.

Speaker 2 (02:31:54):
It's funny. This is This is going to be an
interesting NBA season.

Speaker 4 (02:32:00):
Where I think in most cases that there's going to
be sort of a transfer or a change of power,

is a nightmare. He's like six foot seven, skinny, and
this kid dunks from the freeestow line with both hands
behind his head and slammed it down.
