Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:23):
Hey, yo, they they should calm down. The show is
about to style the radio. Turn it up, turn.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
It up low, low.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
Turn it up loud?

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Did that a dream come true?

Speaker 1 (00:35):
Due to the nature of this program, discretion does not exist.
It's race on the radio right now on w t
i C News Talk ten eighty.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
Did we forget? Everybody's forgetting? There's no music? That's how
you know it's a Monday when there's absolutely bedlam going
on it did it just not register? It just didn't play. Oh,

(01:15):
didn't do a thing. Hey, you know what, that's okay
because it's just that kind of Monday. It's re Sun
Radio on News Talk ten eighty WTIC. It means nothing.
It's not like there's any jinks associated with it. Don't worry.
It's fine. I've got plenty of news and plenty of

(01:36):
views for you. Anyway. The telephone number eight six zero
five two two WTIC eight six zero five two two
nine eight four to two. Let me just tell you
that I think I think that there are people who
were starting to recognize that things are a little different

(02:01):
in Connecticut. And I gotta tell you it feels good.
It feels good. Something happened today and I didn't post
anywhere that I was going to be there or I
was going to do anything. I just got word that
there was a press conference going on, and so I

(02:24):
went down, and I went down, and you know, it's
interesting because sometimes you talk about people on the air
who have never come on the show. Some people refuse
to come on the show. But today we made headway.

(02:47):
Today we actually got right in the faces of individuals
and said, what's the deal, win, are you coming on
the show? And you know what, they made some commitments today.
I'm gonna give him a little bit of grace. Today,
I'm gonna give them a little bit of grace. It's

(03:10):
easy to get the Republicans to come on the show.
Of course, they all want to come on. Hey, come
on by that's fantastic. But I'm not trying to do
you know, a little echo chamber with my Republican buddies.
Not all of them see eye to eye with me.
But you know what, you know the deal, hey, you
know everything he's got all Republicans on it. He never
ever talks to the opposition. I'm trying. I got Donald

(03:34):
telling me every day you never have any opposing views
on your program. I'm working. What you need to do
is get on the phone and say, hey, you need
to get on that guy's show, Huns, show them what for.
You're making us look bad. But that's okay. I'm going
out there to do it for you. So I get

(03:56):
out there today. I had to go see my good
friends over at Friendly Hands Food Bank and I'm giving
them in a plug. Karen Thomas, Sam and the crew.
I gotta give a shout out to Lee who went
out there as well. Someone went there to go see

(04:17):
me because they heard I was gonna be there and
ended up volunteering helping folks get food. And that was Lee.
Lee said, you know he's about to be retired. I
think he's retired. About to be retired maybe, but he said,
I got nothing to do throughout the day, and he
was like, well, you know what can I do? And

(04:40):
Sam and Karen said would you like the volunteer and
he said yes, And other people showed up the volunteer
and they were there to help people get groceries off
shelves and get those folks the food that they need
and got them out the door with shopping carts. Roseanne
and I were there. We got shopping bags sitting in
the back of our Trump and I want to thank
Roseanne for tell me to give them away, because those

(05:01):
things have been littering the back of our car for
years now, and we gave them up to these folks
that they could carry their groceries to their cars, and
it was absolutely beautiful. I'll talk a little bit more
about that as well, because what I saw there was
interesting and I want to talk about that, And of

(05:23):
course I want to talk about I'll give you folks
an opportunity to give to these food banks. We went
to another food bank today, hands On Hartford. Now, I
know there's been a little bit of a scandal or
some issues going on with the folks and hands On Hartford,
but I don't think that people who work there have
anything to do with the outside stuff that's going on

(05:43):
with Senator McCrory. I don't want anybody to get those
two twisted. That's separate. I want to talk about hands
On Hartford because we talked to one of the directors
there and she was such a nice lady, told us
about the things that they were doing. She and Roseanne
had a great conversation. Uh, because we know some programs

(06:04):
that do something similar that hands are Hardford does uh?
And there are good They're good folks, So I don't
want to disparage them by getting them involved in that
whole scandal. They're separate from that. But why were we
at hands on Hartford? Well we heard that Representative John Larson,

(06:28):
that Representative Rosa de Laura, and my frind of me
was showing up. Who's my friend of me? Well, my
frennity friend of me is Matt Lesser. Did you guys
know this story? Matt Lesser called me a coward? Do

(06:50):
you remember? And he knew who I was. I'll tell
you that in the second he called me a coward,
said that I was afraid of him and having him
on the program. Although I reached out to him in
many ways to come on the program, he avoided it,
acted like no one asked him nothing. But I only

(07:13):
thought Larson and DeLaura were gonna be at hands on
Hartford till somebody pointed out, thinking that I didn't know
DeLaura or Larson. Hey there's a senator Matt Lesser as well.
I went, I know who he is. Let me tell
you the whole story. I'll just tell you the whole story.

(07:33):
So I'm standing there and it's supposed to have a
press conference. But before the press conference, they went on
a tour and one of Larson's guys, a new kid.
After they're out on a tour, he sends me a text.
He goes, hey, where are you. I'm like, I'm downstairs waiting.
He goes, no, no, no, come on the tour with us.
We want you here with us. Come on the tour.

(07:54):
So I'm like, okay, fine, hey where are you? So
I start walking around with Rose of Dolaura and John
John Larson and Matt Lesser, And every time I look
at Matt Lesser, Matt Lester will put his eyes up
and put him back down. Put his eyes up and
put him back down. If I locked eyes with him,
gave a little smirk, let him know I was there,

(08:17):
he darted his eyes in the other direction. I knew
what was up. I knew I was up. The guy
he called the coward was right there in front of him,
six foot three, two hundred from pounds, standing in front
of him. He's roughly about six feet tall, and I'm
a big guy. When you're around me, you can see it.

(08:39):
In fact, there's a video out there. Mark from West
Hartford was there with me. He had a video of
us talking. I'm towering over this guy. So we go
through the rigamreau as they're asking questions and people are
telling them about the facility, and it was a nice
facility to do. Folks there were very, very nigh and

(09:00):
very gracious to be visited by the representatives. It was
nice to happen, and they were so happy, couldn't wait
to tell them about all the good work that they do,
and it was I was actually happy to see that.
Rosa Dolora. Let me say this about her, and I
know you guys have some opinions about her, but I'm

(09:22):
gonna tell you there's a thing. There's a reason why
this woman is beloved by those who support her. She
was so engaged, she really really cared in that moment.
You guys can call it phony, it was genuine from
where I sit. She was really engaged with those folks.
She gave this one woman a hug, just the way

(09:42):
the woman was talking about working there and doing all
the work, and she just came out to go give
Rosa Dolora a handshake, and Rosa Dolora reached out and
gave her hugs very pleasant, just like a politician. But anyway,
that's an either here not there.

Speaker 4 (10:00):
Way.

Speaker 3 (10:00):
The whole thing's up. We're about to go in to
do the press conference. Larson goes to sit at his seat,
Rosa Delora goes to sit at her seat. But Matt
Lesser nobody knows who he is, so he's sort of
stuck behind the crowd and the photographers, and so I
make a beat for him. I said, hey, hey, Matt Lesser,

(10:20):
how were you? You know who I am? I reached
on my hand, I shake his hand, and my grandfather
said to me, this is what you always do. You
shake a man's hand and you bring him in to you,
you know, like Trump does. I brought him in and
took a knight's firm handshake. I said, hey, you know me,
don't you. Matt Lesser shook his heads. Yeah, I think

(10:43):
I know you. I are you sure? You're sure you
know me? He goes, uh, yeah, I think I know you.

Speaker 5 (10:51):
Is it who am I?

Speaker 3 (10:54):
And he said the words that made myself and my
wife laugh out loud. He said, yeah, yeah, you're the
race guy. That's right, Matt Lesser, I'm the rece guy.

(11:16):
It's the greatest line ever. It's the greatest way to
to be recognized by the state senator.

Speaker 6 (11:25):
Hey, yeah, you're.

Speaker 3 (11:27):
The race guy. So I kind of bowed, you know,
I kind of bend my head down to him, because, like,
you know, I want to get at his level. It's
because I'm towering over the guy, and I don't want
to be, you know, this towering figure that's trying to
intimidate him. So I scooched down, you know, like you
would when you're giving a kid a cookie. Why does

(11:48):
it come on the program? I think you and I
have uh, you know, we had a couple of exchanges online.
Why don't we get a toe to toe? Come on
the show? You know, I would love to come down
and win. When do you want me on there? Come
on down whenever you like, whenever you want to. You
can come right in here and sit in the studio.
I'd love to have you. I said, you seem to

(12:09):
be very concerned about the Affordable Care Act. What better
time than to come on the program and have a
conversation about it. He was like yeah, but he didn't
have any staffers, and he damn sure wasn't interested in
taking my number or giving me his he was so
quick to get out of here. Mark and West Harford
got a hold of him, and he leaned into him

(12:33):
on that Cromwell High School issue, you know, with the
two black girls who were spat on at Cromwell High School,
the thing that Matt Lesser took no action on. Yeah,
he leaned into him on that. He seemed to know
everything about it, but didn't seem to care about taking
any action. Perhaps when he comes here on the program,

(12:56):
If he comes on the program, we'll talk to him
about that. But I gotta tell you, nothing felt better
than locking eyes with these folks and shaking their hands
and them treating you like you're the celebrity. I didn't
intend that. I did intend on any eye was gonna
show them their respect, But I wanted to show as

(13:17):
soon as you walk into the room, one of the
handlers goes, uh, Hi Reese, Hey, how are you? A
week ago? These people didn't even know who I was.
I showed up a week later at their event, a
Hi Reese, how are you? How have you been fine?

(13:39):
Thanks for inviting me, which they did not. Nobody reached
out and told me about the event. I had to
find out on my own and then when I show up,
they're like, oh, what are you doing here? I'm here
to support the folks who are in need. I'm here
to support the folks who need donation in order to

(14:00):
stay afloat. I'm here because this is what I do.
I just came back from the Friendly Hands Food Bank.
Oh oh, you're really involved in this. Yes I am.
You obviously don't listen to my program. Uh, you know,
I'm busy during that time. Okay, no problem, It's all right.
Perhaps you should listen to the program now. And again.

(14:23):
Beauty of it is is that every one of the
staffers on Larson by the way again, I talked to
Representative Larsen in West Hartford. He had other staffers there.
They knew exactly who I was. Another woman working there
eighteen years. Never met the woman before. Hey you know me, Yeah,
you're Rece. How do you know me? Oh, we know you.

(14:48):
I love every bit of night. And as soon as
I saw Larson outside in the back they were about
the loading dock. He hadn't seen me yet because I
was over in another room. I walked outside when they
told me to come in join them. As soon as
I looked at him, Larsen looked at him and goes, hey,
threw his hands up, Hey, how are you? Walked right

(15:09):
over to me to shake my hand. Hey are you? Representative?
Looking fantastic, and I gotta tell you I don't know
what he's doing. Larson looks great. You gotta go, you
gotta go see him up front. He looks Hollywood. Now
ask him how he was doing. Hey, how are you doing?
I'm doing great. Pleasure to see you man. You looking
like a million bucks. Rep. Thank you. I appreciate that.

(15:30):
You know, campaign's going well. He said that conversation was
so deep that Rose of d'lores saw my reportage with
John Larson. She b lined for me, Hi, how are
you hello, Nice to meet you. It's a pleasure to

(15:53):
meet you for the first time. And this is the
exact words from Representative Larson. He said, hey, it's a
pleasure to meet her, and I went, yeah, we already met.
I waved them off, we already met. Same thing with
with Matt Lesser. Somebody said no, this is this is

(16:14):
Senator Matt Lesser. I was like, yeah, I know him,
waved him off for a quick shook hands with Rose
of Delora and said come on, Let's go inside. I'm
not of these people. Know who I am. Just for
the sake of one thing, They're never going to avoid
my show again because I'm going to show where they

(16:35):
are and they can tell me all day every day. Oh,
they're not taking questions at this thing. I'm not here
to ask them questions. I'm here to get them on
my show. When are you going to get them on
my show? The objective is to show up and to
let them know that I'm going to show up at
every one of the Avens, no matter where they're going
to be. I'm going to show up, and every time
I show up, I'm gonna say, still haven't heard from you?

(16:58):
Coming on the show is not going to be done
through my people to your people. This is not me
contacting your communications guy. This is not sending you an email.
This is showing up myself in person, asking you directly,
are you coming onto the program? Are you going to
sit down and have a conversation. I don't anybody get

(17:22):
the impression I'm breaking anybody's will here. I'm not trying
to harass them into anything. They're holding a public event.
I'm going to be at the public event. One way
or another. We're going to get some questions answered. Okay,
So if we have to do it their way, we'll
do it their way. That's what we do. That's what
this shows about. We're not gonna sit idly by and

(17:45):
complain that they won't come onto the program. I'll just
show there with my cell phone or with a microphone,
and i would just put a microphone in their face
and I'll just say, Okay, if we're not going to
do it in the studio, we'll do it here. They
know that, and trust me what I tell you. They
are listening and I know they want to come on.

(18:07):
I know they do. So we'll have more news and
more views when it comes to these folks. We'll keep
you updated when we get a phone call from any
one of them in the next week, because I'll be
reaching out to them. I also want to talk about
some of the other locations we went to today, Friendly

(18:27):
Hands Food Bank. Of course, talk about what Hands on
Hartford did today and what they've been doing with the
whole food stamp and the EBT crisis and why they
need help outside of that, and what my experience was
like like today. Plus we'll talk about Chris Murphy and
his video that he released today. That man needs to

(18:49):
be condemned for what he released today and what he
said today. But we have his own words and we'll
talk about that in a bit. Plus your phone calls
at he'six zero five two to WTIC eight six zero
five to two two ninety four two. It's Reesa on
the radio on News Talk ten eight WTIC.

Speaker 1 (19:06):
Fan of wti C. Then do us a favor, download
the free Honesty app and favorite wti C.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
And we're back. Reese on the radio, getting to the
phones in the second at eight sex zero five two
two wt i C eighteen zero five two two nine
eight four to two. Uh took a trip to Friendly
Hands Food Bank as well as hands on Hardford. Talk
a little bit about that very soon, because I get

(19:35):
people talking about how compassionate they are, like, you know,
they care ever so much about these folks. Where were you?

Speaker 7 (19:46):
Just?

Speaker 3 (19:46):
Where are you? These places are all around you and
a lot of you have a lot of time on
your hands, on your computers, talking a good game. But
I don't see you there. I didn't see you there.
Today Roseanne and I showed up at Friendly Hands Food
Bank at seven point thirty this morning before they opened

(20:08):
up at nine, Roseanne got on literally on the floor,
putting up signs, putting up little stickers, helping get produce,
guiding people in. She was helping old ladies get to chairs.

(20:29):
I didn't seeing any of you folks, all of your
warriors online talking about how compassionate you are. This is
the reason why I laugh at you, folks. That's why
I don't take you seriously. I know that you're all clowns.
I just do. I'm sorry, I just know that you are.
You talk a good game about you'll call yourself a Christian.
Didn't see you out there. Didn't see you out there.

(20:52):
You know I would be there. In fact, I got
a text message not so long ago. I just watched
WFSB's a video of them at Friendly Hands Food Bank.
I didn't see you on camera. I didn't go there
to be on camera. I didn't even introduce myself to
any of the folks there sure enough, spoke to them,

(21:13):
never told them who I was, had no interest. I
wasn't there for fame. I went there to volunteer. I
went there to show my support. I'm not fame seeking.
Why would they put their camera on me. I'm not
there to pick up food. I'm not there even offering

(21:33):
food Friendly Hands Food Bank. Is I need to tear
you on camera? Would you expect me to be in
the back waving, hey, look at me, hey, stealing a
spotlight from the Navy. You didn't see me on camera,
But then again I didn't see you either, and I

(21:54):
was there. I have the pictures to prove it, will
probably post them. Do your part, stop talking smack, Do
your part. These folks need help. Friendly Hands needs help.
Hands On Hartford need help. They need your donations. What
they're doing for these folks, you're required to do or

(22:20):
at least assist these folks do what they're doing. Can
I tell you the thing that I found amazing in
both places? So I go and meet to Karen Thomas again,
good friend. I've been Karen and I have been back
and forth on this, and I consider her family, I
consider her sister since I started here in twenty twenty two,

(22:42):
and what they did at this facility is not just
about feeding a hungry What she's doing for veterans and
the homeless is unheard of. And I need to put
it this way, the first time I had ever traveled
cross country in a meaningful way. I've gone to rest

(23:04):
stops before, Like you know, you go to a rest
stop and they have like all of the fast food
chains inside, you know, off the highway. I never really
stopped at those places, like the Pilots or the Loves,
you know, those truck replaces. I had never been there
until I was grown up. And if I had never
done this, I would be naive to the idea. I

(23:28):
always wondered, what do truck drivers do when they're going
cross country when they need to clean up? Do they
go to a gas station and do like the little
underarmed thing and clean up all their private parts from
the sink? Like what do they do until And you
guys know this, I'm not telling any tales out of school,
not like you wouldn't know this, but I didn't stop

(23:50):
at a pilot stop at the Loves, and those folks
have showers there, and I'm like, oh, that's so cool.
There's a spot for the folks to actually purchase some
time to go get a shower, to buy some cbe
radio equipment. By the way, just so you truckers out
there who listen to Resa on radio, you are the

(24:11):
heartbeat of America. I love you. I'm so envious of you.
I learned how to drive trucks just so I could
be amongst you. I drive the little U haul twenty
six foot trucks, back them up and do it because
I totally envy what you do, what you guys do.
You're frightening on the highways, but that takes skill. Uh,
And I'm really I'm telling you, I'm jealous of what

(24:32):
you guys do because one, you get to see the
country and you get to go to all these great places.
But I know, I love the fact that there are
these gas station stops that you can go to, these
trucker stops, or you can go and get a shower,
buy new equipment, you know, if something breaks on your
on your travels, and I want to buy that. Cbe
equipment all the time. That's why Roseanne says, I need

(24:53):
to go buy an RV so I can buy that stuff.
But I'm telling you, I'm so envious. Well, what is
car Thomas doing over at Friendly Hands Food Bank. She's
got showers for homeless folks. She's got showers for veterans.

(25:13):
They can go there and clean up. They've got a
change of clothes for them. If they need it. They
got a whole rack of clothing for them to change into.
She's got a veterans center with a big giant table
with a seventy five is a seventy five inch television
so they can come in and just relax, someplace for

(25:37):
them to congregate and chill, just for the veterans. She's
got another room with computers so if people need to
get like VA benefits or need to contact the VA,
to have a place to do that with technicians who
are gonna be there to assist them for those who
are computer illiterate. Look, I was talking to a couple

(25:59):
of guys. There was like, no one's done that kind
of stuff. When I was a homeless kid, I would
have loved to have a place like that. But they're
finding new and inventive ways to assist these folks who
need help. And that's why you've got to help them.
I've got to help them. We've got to show up.

(26:22):
It's our duty to do so. And some of it
it doesn't take anything but our time. If you've got
the money, because I know a lot of people are
you know, you know, kind of crammed up. You know,
it's hard to get donations out when you can't, but
if you have the time, it's worth it. That's why

(26:43):
I get props to leave. This guy came out to
meet me and he just looked around and he saw
all these people moving around. He said, what can I do?
Samuel came over and said, would you like to volunteer?
He was like yeah, He said, let me get you
a lanyard, had a landing around his neck. In ten minutes,
he was out there helping people get groceries off the shelves.

(27:07):
And then all of a sudden we started to notice
and the influx of other people. We thought they were
coming to get online and get closed and to get food. Nope, volunteers.
And I gotta tell you the part that really affected
me and Roseanne as we sat there on the side,

(27:27):
knowing that all we could do was support, the thing
that was really getting at us is that these folks
were our age and older. That was the part that
was really really like. It weighed on me that these
folks were so much older and they were the ones

(27:51):
who needed to help. The other part was interesting because
remember one of the younger women saw all the TV
cameras and she was like, I don't want to be
on camera, and I said, don't worry, you don't have
to be. Just let them know you don't want to
be on camera. There was such a shame there. That's

(28:16):
hard to watch because I know we've been talking about
videos that we've seen online with people talking about EBT
and if I don't get my EBT benefits, I'm gonna
rob this store. And they're all on Facebook and you know,
Twitter and you know wherever bragging about what they're gonna
do if they don't get their benefits. And then you

(28:37):
see these people absolutely humble, just want to get Some
woman was so was there and you could see it
on her face. She had this look on her face
of just disgust that she had to put herself through that.
And she wouldn't give anybody any looks, but she looked
like she just wanted to get in and get out,

(28:58):
just let me get it. Everybody else is sort of
trying to be jovial about it. You know, no, no,
come this way, man, we got you. That's this woman
wanted nothing to do with it because I know that
every part about what she had to do today was
driving her just baddie, just shameful. She was like, look,
I just want to get it in her get out,

(29:19):
and she did. She came in and she got out,
but there was nothing about that, and she wanted to
smile about she didn't. She couldn't give herself an ounce
of grace, even though everyone there was just as welcoming
as they could, all the volunteers, or do anything you want,
I'll get that for you here, let me help you
with your card. Everybody there was helpful, but that woman

(29:44):
just didn't because I know she feels horrible that she
has to go through this. And that's all I can
watch is just look at their faces and you smile
at them. Hey, how you doing.

Speaker 8 (29:56):
It's fine.

Speaker 3 (29:57):
At some point I wanted to ask questions, like I
wanted to talk to them, but I'm like, who wants
to talk about this? How can you ask them to
talk about this about having to come to a food
pantry admitting openly with their presence there that they can't
afford the food, the basic thing in life. So I

(30:22):
just let them be. All the rest of the guys
from NBC Connecticut, WFSB was there, TNH are there. They
were so they were nice folks. Don't get me wrong,
they were nice. They disappointed me that they wouldn't have
a brawl in the parking lot like Anchorman, But you know,
I tried to talk to him, but they were as

(30:45):
nice as they could be, and they just they seemed
to just, you know, kind of want to get folks
stories and show support for a Friendly Hands Food bank.
And that was enough for me. But I'm glad I
was there. When we come back, I'll talk about hands
On Hartford and what they're doing, which is very similar
to what Karen Thomas is doing at Friendly Hand's Food Bank.

(31:06):
Stand by for that. It's Resila Radio on WTIC News
Talk tenndy.

Speaker 1 (31:10):
It's Race on the radio on News w T I
see see.

Speaker 3 (31:15):
Continuing with our tour of the food banks today, Roseanne
and I going to show our support and of course
at the press conference of Rosa Dolora and Representative John Larson,
we showed up at the at the Heart hands On
Hartford location, which is interesting because of they do something

(31:41):
very similar to what Karen Thomas at the Friendly Hands
Food Bank is doing. But the only difference is, and
this is incredible, you wouldn't again, if you don't know
what these organizations are doing, you wouldn't know, and they
don't really have an advertising budget to tell people there.
So imagine this right in Hartford on Bartholomele. This location

(32:08):
serves breakfast and lunch which you could buy for three dollars.
It's three dollar menu. You walk in there. Everyone who
works there is if they're not staff, is volunteering or
someone who is you know, of the community, the homeless community,
if you will. They have residents at the location and

(32:32):
showers like Karen does it Friendly Hand Food Bank. They
have an entire building in a facility. But here's where
it's crazy. This is how you can help out. Try
this on for size. At fifty five Bartholomew on Thursday,
Friday and Saturday nights. It is a full fledged restaurant,

(32:58):
like top of the line restaurant with a chef that
you can get a menu like, it's an actual restaurant.
During the rest of the week, it's sort of this,
you know, back and forth, you know, with helping folks
that need three dollars you know, donation sort of deal.
But on Thursday, Friday and Saturday night, you go there

(33:21):
at a real restaurant open to the regular public, with
a regular menu that you buy food with notable chefs,
I might add, I guess they have sort of like
a rotation of notable chefs, and that money is donated
to hands On Hartford as well. They've got a million

(33:43):
things like and again this is stuff that nobody knows about.
So if you can't donate in the traditional way, you know,
like all of these others, you know, with you know,
nine dollars a month or twelve dollars, you know, all
of those other you know programs. If you can't do
something like that, pick a weekend when you've got some
disposable income, go down to hands On Hartford on Bartholomele

(34:11):
and have dinner tip well, and that will be your contribution.
It's that easy. It is that easy. It is so
many things that they are providing for, you know, especially
the people who are in need. They're helping people with

(34:33):
HIV AIDS, They're helping people who are veterans, people who
are homeless, people who are on SSI, who cannot find
places to live. So theres affordable housing for these folks.
Many of them work in the actual restaurant, and the
restaurant is so nice looking, such a nice place, and
that's I think that's the way the how easy it

(34:57):
is to convert it to an actual restaurant, because when
you walk up to the building, it looks like, you know,
your average restaurant on the street. It's a really really
nice building. If you haven't been there, you should go.
Really really nice building. And the people really love helping,
you know, I see them there. I couldn't help but

(35:18):
think of Louise Jefferson Waezy when she used to always
talk about going down to the help Center, which we
really ever saw on camera, but she would always talk
about going down to the help Center and how that
was kind of like a fabric of her life. I'd
never really seen like those inner workings. I've been on

(35:39):
the outside looking in, but I'd never walked through the
kitchen area and walk through the facility and see that stuff.
So to see the inner workings and talk to the
people who work in there, I gotta admit I'm not
only impressed, but I'm inspired by the work these folks do.

(36:00):
A lot of them are moved because of their own
personal stories and struggles, but other people are there because
they want to give back. One woman who was talking
to Rosa Delora, I mean, she had all the liberal
talking points. Don't get me wrong, she did the whole
thing about, you know, being a white suburban woman, you know,

(36:22):
being around such a diverse group of people. But I'm
not gonna lie. I felt for her when she was
getting emotional, because for her, this was her getting outside
of her own box, being around the people who she's
familiar with and helping other people outside of that. So
I couldn't take it like normally you look at her
just going oh boy, I didn't. I couldn't roll my

(36:42):
eyes at her because she was really really genuine about
She thought this was her way of giving back and
she had been gone for a while and she had
just gotten back. And she says that being at hands
on Hartford brings her joy, and when she wasn't there,
she was feeling miserable, like she feels better about herself

(37:04):
being there. I couldn't take it away from her. That
was just that was inspiring. To know. Yeah, misguided on
the whole liberal you know, malarkey stuff, but I can't
hate on that. That's just not something I could do.
So again, I I'm just saying to you, if you
know a location like this that's nearby that you you know,

(37:25):
you've seen, and you've asked yourself what goes on there?
Go find out those folks are giving. They'll give you
a tour. They'll let you know what they're doing and
how they're doing it, and they'll let you know how
you can help. The season of giving is upon us,
I mean, might as well say it. It is right now.
There is no better time than the present. So I

(37:47):
hope that you'll join me, because that's what I'm gonna
be doing for the next two to three months as
much as I can. All Right, enough with me, Let's
get to the newsroom. Headlines coming up, some crazy stories
in the news to get to. But before that, we'll
get to John Larson. I mean, no, John Larson, We'll
get to John Sofa, he said to WTIC news room.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
We'll be back preecee on the radio making sense of
the news if even when it makes no sense at
all at all. Now on wt I see news Talk
ten eighty.

Speaker 3 (38:17):
Folks. Don't fret. I promise you I will get to
your your chat room comments in a second. I'm sorry,
just going over a whole bunch of notes and a
whole bunch of stories. You know, it's Monday, so we
got to get back into the thick of things, and
that's what I'm paying attention to. But I will get
to the chat room in a second. I did not
forget you. Let's get some headlines. The head of the

(38:45):
BBC and his top news executive resigned on November ninth
after the broadcaster was accused of misleading viewers by editing
President Donald Trump's January sixth speech. The BBC confirmed it
was cutting ties with Director General Tim Davie and the
CEO of News, Deborah Turis Turness. In a series of

(39:07):
press releases on November ninth, she says, quote Davie said,
I want to let you know that I've decided to
leave the BBC after twenty years. Now, why is this important?
As I've said for the longest about January sixth, if
Donald Trump incited a riot, the news media would have

(39:31):
played that quote on a loop every day for four years.
It didn't. The BBC had to doctor it, and if
you've heard about it, you can go online and find it.
What they did was they took Donald Trump's statements an
hour earlier and then spiced them with something he said

(39:53):
an hour later, saying that I know you're going to
go down to the Capitol to cheer on your representatives
in Washington, not raid the Capitol. He never once said it,
And if there was a case, the BBC wouldn't have
to take a speech from one point to an hour

(40:15):
later and splice them together to make it appear that
he said you'll go there and fight. It wouldn't be needed,
and these two bozos wouldn't have to lose their jobs,
which they obviously decide. They decided to give up their
careers because they knew that Donald Trump was coming with

(40:37):
a lawsuit, which I don't my honest assessment, I don't
think he should not pursue. I think he should pursue it. Hell,
get them all, get them all. Okay. I gotta be
honest with you. I read this story and I'm still
ticked off about it because someone's got to explain to you.
How explain to me how you do this. MLB pitchers

(41:04):
are now getting caught up in another betting scheme. Here's
what happened. A star closer and a starter allegedly took
small bribes a few thousand dollars each time from gamblers
in their home country of the Dominican Republic, in return
They would tip off betters about what pitch they planned

(41:25):
to throw, like a slow curveball instead of a fastball,
intentionally throw bad pitches like balls in the dirt, or
make specific and make specific bets win. These were called
prop bets. Sound familiar, Yeah, just like in the NBA
and the prop bets and the wagers on tiny game

(41:47):
details like whether a pitch would be a ball or
a strike or hit a certain speed. Not the whole game,
just one pitch at a time. Now, Look, I gotta
be honest with you. I didn't think pitch could be
that accurate, Okay, I you know, like I can understand
that you can intentionally throw a ball versus a strike.

(42:10):
I get it right. You throw on jazz a bit outside.
You know, you throw on jazz in the corner. I
know there's some pitchers out there who are really really
good at that. But the fact that there is a
betting apparatus for you to throw on a pitch, Roland,
I'm hating betting more and more, this little rigky dink

(42:33):
back and forth, this little ticky tack betting tripe, Like
you can, like, can I bet on whether or not
a squirrel will end up on the field.

Speaker 8 (42:42):
Yeah, this is ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (42:44):
You can bet on every little aspect of the game.

Speaker 9 (42:47):
You can bet on just about yeah, just about everything,
and you can find it some type of way.

Speaker 3 (42:53):
Is there like a bet on a rain delay, like
like whether or not Like let's say the game calls
for rain can you bet on whether or not it'll
be in the seventh or the sixth inning?

Speaker 1 (43:04):
You?

Speaker 9 (43:05):
Honestly, I'm quite sure you. I'm quite sure you can.

Speaker 3 (43:10):
That's insane, that's insane.

Speaker 8 (43:12):
Sure you can't. I wouldn't. I wouldn't put anything past va.

Speaker 3 (43:16):
Every part of this is making me nuts because I'm like,
I mean, there's so many ways to lose money. At
the same time with these guys cheating, there's so many
ways for them.

Speaker 8 (43:29):
To make money, for them to make money up, I mean, these.

Speaker 3 (43:32):
Got Can you imagine that that? I can?

Speaker 9 (43:34):
I just but I guess I guess she just is
it for the thrills, because if you're multi millionaires, even
though not all of them betting in a multi millionaires,
some of them making.

Speaker 8 (43:47):
Like five hundred grand a year, which is still a
whole lot of money.

Speaker 3 (43:52):
It is. Now here's the thing closse. I think that's
how you predicce proounce his name the Guardian's pictuer. Uh,
Emmanuel Klasse or Klass whatever. He's been doing this since
May of twenty twenty three, and he continued right until
twenty twenty five. Or Tease the starter, right, he's the
starter or Tease the starter. He just started this June

(44:14):
overtime gamblers won at least four hundred and sixty thousand
dollars from bets from their pitches. Classe got four hundred
to seven hundred thousand. Or Tease has only made about
sixty thousand.

Speaker 8 (44:28):
Wow it yeah, is it worth that?

Speaker 7 (44:32):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (44:33):
Well, first of all, the main.

Speaker 8 (44:34):
Just seems like they're making a lot of money though.

Speaker 3 (44:36):
Three was it three years? Yeah, twenty twenty three to
twenty twenty five, So yeah.

Speaker 8 (44:40):
That's four hundred and sixty thousand.

Speaker 3 (44:41):
So what four hundred and sixty to seven hundred thousand.

Speaker 8 (44:44):
To seven hundred thousand.

Speaker 3 (44:46):
I mean, I guess that's a lot to make over time. No, No,
for the hold on, we're talking about the average schmo
who's making maybe seventy five thousand, seventy five thousand dollars
a year. If he's making this much in a range
of four hundred thousand and arrange three years. That's a
hefty pickup.

Speaker 8 (45:02):
Oh yeah for that person. But he's not making.

Speaker 3 (45:05):
That No, No, I know that. I'm just saying, I mean,
that's a come up if I ever heard one, that's
just insane.

Speaker 8 (45:11):
Made as money to his friends.

Speaker 3 (45:13):
Yeah, exactly. Well it's in the Dominican Republic.

Speaker 9 (45:15):
So all right, that's like four houses, four hundred eighty,
four hundred sixty thousand.

Speaker 8 (45:26):
Yeah, and d R you are a.

Speaker 3 (45:30):
King, a king exactly, You're a king pen in that regard. Yeah,
that's that's just insane. Bone chilling data has revealed that
almost two hundred corps have been pulled from Houston's bious
in the last eight years, prompting terrified locals to demand answers.

(45:50):
Officials continue to insist that this alarming high figure is
not the work of a serial killer. But since twenty seventeen,
one hundred and eighty nine dead bodies have been found
in the Texas City swampy waters. According to the Harris
County Medical Examiner's Offices, records of these, seventeen were classified

(46:13):
as murders, with seventy five deaths marked as unexplained. That's
definitely worthy of investigation. This according to Joseph H. Gia Slone,
the retired NYPD sergeant and criminal justice professor at Penn
State Lehigh Valley. He told The Daily Mail that fears
of a serial killer were ignited in late September after

(46:35):
officials announced that five dead bodies had been recovered over
the course of just five days on Friday. The Harris
County Institute for Forensic Science has said that the causes
of all but one of the deaths still remain undetermined.
The death of Amufo of Alvarado was ruled as an

(46:55):
accidental drowning mixed with the effects of meth and fetimian,
But that still doesn't one hundred and eighty nine people
found in a swamp and they say it's not a
serial killer. It sounds like a dumping place, like what
we used to say about the Hudson River back in
the day, with the you know, with the uh you

(47:18):
know what those things, you know, you know what I mean. Anyway,
that's uh yeah, so that's part of the news. Here's
the stupidest thing I read today.

Speaker 1 (47:31):
Yes, you do at It could very well be the
stupidest person on the face of the.

Speaker 3 (47:36):
Earth, your family member is dead, I think. Officials for
Maine's largest healthcare provider has apologized for sending their condolences
to hundreds of people who are still alive. A computer

(47:59):
system error caused Main Health officials to send letters of
condolences to more than five hundred living people to inform
them of to inform their next of kin of their
reported deaths. Maine Health, the state's largest provider of medical services,

(48:19):
sent the false condolences letters to five hundred and thirty
one people on October twentieth. Maine Health wrote this, Maine
Health sincerely regrets this error. Maine Health officials said in
the statement. The cause of the mistake was a computer
program that generates estate vendor letters. There were no medical

(48:42):
records that listed the individuals as dead, and the computer
program has since been corrected to prevent future occurrences. Maine
Health is a nonprofit healthcare provider that operates a Level
one trauma center and eight other hospitals. According to NBC News,
it employees more than twenty thousand people in Maine and

(49:04):
New Hampshire, and they sent out letters to folks and
says we regret to inform you that your family member
is debt. Now. I don't know about you, but there
are a lot of shady people out there, and I
know it. I feel it in my bones. You get

(49:26):
a letter from main Health that says that you're dead,
and of course you're alive. What do you think that
they would do with a letter like that. I can
think of a lot of things, guys, perhaps scammera's dream. Right.
The first thing that you would do is you have

(49:47):
any outstanding debt that's out of here without I mean,
can you? I mean I guess that they would ask
for a death certificate, right, but you know what, all
things considered, you probably could get one with that condolence
letter from main Health. And you don't know. Of course,

(50:08):
because the hippo laws, you can't release who the people
were who got the false letters. You can't. You actually
can't do that. That's the insane part. Plus they like
the tax free money. John Beckman says, Oh, that's why
I always talking about the gamblers. He says that the

(50:28):
gamblers like the tax free money. Craig says, I think
these guys getting into gambling debt and this is their
out card, simple organized crime. It's a good point that
is a good point. Again, I don't know anybody who
would do anything that insane that I would. You know,

(50:51):
it seems crazy. But now, how am I supposed to
watch sports?

Speaker 4 (50:55):
Like?

Speaker 3 (50:55):
How am I supposed to do that? I've completely lost
faith in this game, in any game for that matter.
I noticed one guy I'll leave in San Diego. He
thinks all sports are rigged.

Speaker 1 (51:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (51:08):
Uh reece, yes, and break some news to you please.
Since the beginning of time when they had Olympians fighting
to the death and those big arenas in Greece, what.

Speaker 3 (51:25):
Even those were fixed? Yes, the gladiators at the Coliseos.

Speaker 8 (51:31):
Were fixed as well. It's been like that.

Speaker 9 (51:34):
It's just that it's more on a horizon because of
all the technology that.

Speaker 8 (51:39):
We have today.

Speaker 3 (51:39):
Cornelius, you will take a dive.

Speaker 8 (51:43):
With your life.

Speaker 3 (51:44):
Who is your life? The Betts expect you to go
down and fortnighte that's I mean again, Yes, I get
that there's cheating. If there's an opportunity to cheat, that
you cheat. But my my problem with that is there's
so many people who are now telling me that I

(52:05):
need to grow up. I know they're gonna tell me
it's like, you gotta get with it. But look sport.
That used to be the only dramma because we didn't
know the outcome, right, And I guess we still don't
know the outcome because we don't know.

Speaker 8 (52:18):
We don't know, we don't know, but somebody else knows.

Speaker 3 (52:22):
But you know, Roseanne said it best, you know when
it's when the NBA scandal broke, and she goes, what
do you want? The WWE is phony two and I went,
just don't like to me. It was just like, ah, like,
don't don't rain on my parade by saying that comparing
it to the.

Speaker 9 (52:41):
WWE entertainment, it's entertainment. We're paying for entertainment. That's why
I wish these games would be the single games like
Thursday night, Sunday night, Monday night. Yeah, these games supposed
to be spectacular, and most of the time.

Speaker 3 (52:58):
They're so lackluster.

Speaker 9 (53:00):
And I think it's and I think that has a
lot to do with the betting though, because if they
are spectacular, a lot of people are gonna win a
lot of money. So they got a kind of kind
of dumb and dumb it down a little bit.

Speaker 3 (53:09):
So yeah, what I turned I turned on the game
last night with Pittsburgh versus San Diego. Horrible?

Speaker 2 (53:15):
What was that?

Speaker 3 (53:16):
San Diego is Los Angeles?

Speaker 8 (53:17):
Now Chargers?

Speaker 3 (53:18):
Yeah, l A Chargers. Uh And I turned on the game,
like five to three, it was five to two. Yeah,
I'm looking at the score. I'm just going five to
What the hell is going on here? Like, how do
you get that score? That's a baseball score in the
first quarter? And I'm going, how the heck did that happen?
Then I find out there was a safety. Yeah, there
were two two safeties.

Speaker 9 (53:37):
Safety no one safety two and two field goals. It
was five to three because uh no, it's.

Speaker 3 (53:45):
Five compositives five to two.

Speaker 8 (53:47):
It was five.

Speaker 9 (53:47):
It was three to two at one point, yeah, that
I remember. Yeah, then then Chargers kicked the field goal,
maybe five to three.

Speaker 3 (53:54):
So insane just watching this stupid game. I was just say, going,
why am I watching this? I don't I have no
stake in either one of these games at all.

Speaker 9 (54:03):
I had seventy dollars on that game. Why in parlays?
Seventy dollars in parlay It's so different people to score,
and it's only two people scored a touchdown.

Speaker 8 (54:14):
So that's that That's why.

Speaker 3 (54:16):
That's got to be frustrating.

Speaker 9 (54:18):
Now, Yeah, but that's why, you know, it's it's it's
about the money. If everybody's scoring touchdowns, then everybody's making money.

Speaker 3 (54:26):
What am I going to do on Super Bowl Sunday?
Do I just like not do anything? Am I going
to be watching the Puppy Bowl?

Speaker 10 (54:32):
Uh?

Speaker 9 (54:32):
You see who it is, who the two teams is,
and you kind of see what Vegas think about this?

Speaker 8 (54:38):
It was it was.

Speaker 9 (54:40):
It was supposed to be a three peat last year
with Kansas. They got so much backlash they had to
let Philly win for those you think so for the
sake of the NFL. Absolutely, they had so much backlash
about how Kansas City always there and the rest is
cheating from form and cheating for him all season long.

Speaker 3 (55:02):
Do you think they'd have lost fans if that would
have happened. Yeah, I believe so that's true. So I
you know what, I want? A Korean North Korean style
email hack like we got back in the day. Let
me tell you why, because that hack, although everybody was
outraged about it, there was so much that was revealed.

(55:23):
So in that hack, well we found out if you
guys might remember, the first gay NFL draft pick was
Michael Sam Yeah, and what was he mister irrelevant?

Speaker 4 (55:32):
Why?

Speaker 9 (55:34):
I just didn't understand why he couldn't wait till he
actually got a good contract before.

Speaker 8 (55:40):
He revealed that he was gay, not revealed, No, he could.

Speaker 9 (55:44):
You could reveal that you're gay, but you on camera
slobbing down a draft drafted is like nobody was doing
that with their you know, significant others like that, no
matter the gender.

Speaker 3 (55:57):
Yeah, that's true. Well the fact that that happened to
the NFL. But okay, So in that North Korean email scandal,
which was interesting, right, we found a lot of emails
by a lot of powerful people was revealed. One of which,
when it came to the Michael Sam thing, so very
late or I say, very early in Michael Sam's career,
when he was failing with the RAMS, an email from

(56:21):
Roger Goodell went to Jerry Jones, and Jerry Jones was
told by Roger Goodell to take Michael Sam and put
him on the practice squad of the Dallas Cowboys so
Jerry Jones could get some good pr for the Dallas
Cowboys because they couldn't have him cut because then they

(56:42):
would be accused of homophobia. So that inside was like,
so the reason why I say, I would love to
have like an inside of you know, Roger Goodell's emails
now is I want to know whether or not there
was any inner workings with Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey

(57:04):
and the fact that the NFL kept putting the camera
on her, you know what I mean?

Speaker 8 (57:08):
They signed a deal?

Speaker 3 (57:09):
Yeah, are you certain of that?

Speaker 9 (57:11):
You just said that, you know they signed a deal
NFL and Taylor Swift. Really, yeah, they worked out a deal.

Speaker 3 (57:17):
That's interesting. Yeah, I didn't even know that, but yeah,
I mean that just seemed like they were just trying
to get swifties or women. They've always wanted women to
watch the game, So yeah, I just thought that was interesting.
So I would love to see the inner workings of
that email, uh, to find out like how that all
went down or how they were trying to profit from it.
But you're right, You may be right that them winning

(57:39):
a three peet would have definitely soured people on the league.

Speaker 8 (57:44):
They had to make it a blowout like that.

Speaker 3 (57:46):
Yeah, which also makes sense because they only you know,
took everybody for another loop by having Bad Bunny as
they have that show insane. Let's take a break, we'll
come back. More news more views. We'll take your phone
calls as well. Eight and zero five two two w
t I c it's he's on the radio on wt
I see News Talk ten eighty.

Speaker 1 (58:02):
Hey, hey, hey, hey, whoa wo Let's not put all
one hundred candles on the cake. It'll ruin the frosting
and probably set the place on fire. And there's expensive
radio equipment in here too.

Speaker 3 (58:14):
Hey, we're back. Sorry about that. Reese on the radio
News Talk ten eightywt I see. I got people asking
the questions like where's the chat. The chat is right
where you are. That's why I said, I'm reaching out
to find out where all of them, you know, where
all of your comments are. Rick says, Hey, Reese, finally
glad that you got to confront Matt Lesser. That's the
man that called you a coward and the man that

(58:36):
I consistently address on social media on why he doesn't
want to go on Reese on the radio. Well, we
both got to ask him, Rick, So we'll see what happens.
We'll we'll keep contacting his office to see what happens.
So yeah, you know, he'll come on or he won't,
but we'll still go out there on the road. I
just I want everybody to know that I want to

(58:59):
be out there at these events. I'm not sitting at
home preparing for the show, waiting to get on so
I can complain. My objective is to go out there
where they are and to ask questions about all the
public figures, all of the officials. Hey, this is going on.
I heard that you had a response to it. Let's
get a you know, let's get a back and forth going.

(59:22):
I don't want to come in a show. That's fine,
let's talk about it right here. You welcome to the show.
We'll bring the show to you. So we'll do that.
So don't worry about that. We'll get all that stuff done.
Chris Murphy, let me address his silliness real quick. And

(59:45):
I want to make sure that I get this right,
because did he post this on the ninth I think
it was let me get my mouse here. I think
he posted this on the ninth. This was the statement
that he posted. I want to make sure I get
it in front of you so I can read it.

(01:00:05):
Chris Murphy wrote, So here's where we are Sunday morning.
Trump is trying to starve hungry kids in order to
bully Democrats. Into abandoning our fight against healthcare premium increases.
So Trump is starving kids in order to deny families healthcare.

(01:00:27):
Dystopian is what Chris Murphy wrote. And then last night
he learned that his Democrat colleagues we're going to sign
off on the continuing Resolution, and Chris Murphy's not happy

(01:00:51):
about that. Here's what he said about finding out that
the end of the government shutdown was just days away.

Speaker 4 (01:01:01):
The vote hasn't closed, but it looks like eight Democrats
have joined Republicans to vote for a temporary reopening of
the government for about two months, but a bill with
no protections to stop the coming health care disaster in
this country caused by Donald Trump's premium increases, nor any
provisions to meaningfully stopped Trump's corruption and his illegality. You

(01:01:26):
can see how tired I am. I've been here all weekend.

Speaker 3 (01:01:29):
Haven't been in Connecticut.

Speaker 4 (01:01:31):
I've been working throughout the past few weeks to try
to prevent.

Speaker 3 (01:01:34):
This moment, except not in Connecticut.

Speaker 4 (01:01:38):
After the elections on Tuesday, it just became absolutely clear
that the American people do not want Democrats to be
bullied into submission. They want Democrats to fight for their
health care they want.

Speaker 3 (01:01:50):
Yeah, that's right, that's what the election on Tuesday was
all about. They want people to fight for their healthcare.
They those people were voting to keep the government shut down.
That's what Chris Murphy got from.

Speaker 4 (01:02:03):
That demogressive fight. Trump's illegality. Bullies gained power when righteous
people yield in the face of their wrongdoing. I didn't
want this shutdown.

Speaker 2 (01:02:18):
I wanted to end but not at any cost.

Speaker 4 (01:02:22):
And of course I wish that there was a path
to saving this democracy and saving people's health care.

Speaker 3 (01:02:28):
That you wish there was a path to saving this democracy, Well,
what's one of the ways you thought we could save
this democracy? Senator?

Speaker 4 (01:02:41):
Didn't involve pain? This shutdown hurt. It did, But unfortunately,
I don't think there is a way to save this country,
to save our democracy without there being some difficult, hard
moments along the way.

Speaker 3 (01:03:00):
You mean the American people starving. I don't think that
we saved the democracy without having people starve. That's what
Chris Murphy sells. He's like, look, we gotta save democracy.
If some people don't eat, it's for democracy. It wasn't

(01:03:24):
like he didn't say it before. Here's Chris Murphy saying
the exact same thing on The Daily Show with John Stewart.

Speaker 11 (01:03:31):
The moment requires us to break norms. This moment requires
us to take risks. And I get it. A lot
of my colleagues said, shutting down the government, being in
a government shutdown, that's a risk that hands power to
Donald Trump and Elon Musk. But how on earth are
we going to ask the American people to take risks
for us right when there's a five alarmed constitutional fire
and we need them to be out on the streets,

(01:03:52):
not with hundreds, not with thousands or tens of thousands
of people, but with hundreds of thousands of people. If
we're not willing to show courage and take risks ourself.

Speaker 3 (01:04:00):
That's right, They've got to take risks. The American people
have to take risk, They have to suffer. The pain
is good. Your starvation is saving democracy.

Speaker 4 (01:04:13):
Chris Murphy said, the people came out on Tuesday in
huge numbers, and yes, it was a referendum on Trump,
but it was also a referendum on us. And I
think there's gonna be a lot of very angry people
out there in this country.

Speaker 3 (01:04:26):
They'll be well fed, Chris.

Speaker 4 (01:04:28):
I know there will be a lot of angry people
out there in this country.

Speaker 3 (01:04:30):
You know there will be a lot of angry people
out there. It's just gonna be so rough. I'm out
of breath. I'm tired.

Speaker 8 (01:04:37):
I lost my voice.

Speaker 3 (01:04:40):
I've been shouted at everybody's ah, that threat to democracy.

Speaker 1 (01:04:42):
AH.

Speaker 3 (01:04:44):
So many people they were just suffering, and they needed
to suffer because we have to save this democracy. And
I'm doing it myself. I'm single handedly doing it myself.
I am out there saving democracy on my world tour,
going from state to state, places that I don't represent,
making sure that people know my name and let them
know that I'm saving the democracy. I'm doing it telling

(01:05:06):
people no, no, no, no, put that food down. No no, no, no, no,
put that food down. I need you to starve. I
need you, I need you to just I need you
not to eat. I need you to lose weight. I
need you malnourished so that we can bully the government.

Speaker 4 (01:05:22):
Having watched just a handful of Democrats joined with Republicans,
and we still have fights ahead where we've got to be.

Speaker 2 (01:05:29):
Able to unite as Democrats.

Speaker 4 (01:05:31):
This won't be the only consequential moment between now and.

Speaker 3 (01:05:34):
They're all consequential, Chris, We've got it. We got it.
This won't be the only consequential moment. They're all consequential.
Donald Trump got a hangnail. It's consequential. Donald Trump went
to a football game. Consequentio. Donald Trump said that he
wants a stadium named after consequentio. He wants to be

(01:05:58):
a king because he wants a stadium named after him.
Heaven's to Betsy clutch your pearls. Shut down the government,
Donald Trump said something in an interview.

Speaker 2 (01:06:11):
Next November.

Speaker 4 (01:06:13):
But there's no way to defend this, and you are
right to be angry about it. I'm angry about it,
and I'm just going to get up tomorrow and go
to work to try to convince all of my colleagues to.

Speaker 3 (01:06:32):
Help the American people starve more.

Speaker 2 (01:06:36):
That this is a unique moment.

Speaker 8 (01:06:37):
And then.

Speaker 3 (01:06:39):
Although this is a unique moment, not last week, not
in January, not in March, it's a unique moment every
day after a while, it's just crying wolf, Chris.

Speaker 4 (01:06:52):
Isn't it destiny to stand and fight, even when it's hard,
even when it involves pain? Is necessary? More necessary today
than at any point during any of our political careers.

Speaker 3 (01:07:05):
Yeah, Pain is necessary. Your pain is necessary. That's why
I wrote that. In one minute, it's Donald Trump's willing
to make people starve. The next minute, Chris Murphy is
admitting you must starve, you must feel the pain so

(01:07:28):
the American people can blame Trump. I need you to
starve in the street so I can get a photo op,
so that the news media will see you starving in
the street, begging for handouts, so that I can use
it against the Trump administration, so he can give us
what we want. And now the Democrats said, Okay, enough
is enough. We're done with this. They've decided to back

(01:07:51):
away and do what's right, knowing that they lost taking
the l Chris Murphy.

Speaker 8 (01:07:57):
I'm very disappointed about this.

Speaker 5 (01:07:59):
So what, So what?

Speaker 3 (01:08:02):
You're disappointed? No one cares. Can I tell you something.
I gotta find this audio of Jimmy Kimmel's wife. Have
you heard about this. Jimmy Kimmel's wife is over here
talking about having to deal with her family members who
voted for Trump while her husband is fighting Trump. Jimmy Kimmel,

(01:08:26):
Jimmy Kimmel is fighting Trump with a late night show
with awful jokes. That's how he's fighting Donald Trump every day.
These people have actually anointed themselves at some sort of fact.
You know what it is. I'll tell you what it is.
You know what Donald Trump is. Donald Trump is climate change.
That's what it is. To Chris Murphy, to Jimmy Kimmel,

(01:08:48):
to Stephen Colbert, to John Stewart, all of them. Donald
Trump is climate change. What do I mean? It's real simple.
These people think that they are actually affecting. They think
attacking Donald Trump is like buying a prius, It's like recycling.
I'm doing my part. I go on my show every

(01:09:11):
night to fight the Trump administration. Like how like you
really think of yourself in that way. I get it
all the time. I get these text messages from my
favorite listener send them to me all the time. He
thinks he's fighting Trump. He does. He wakes up every
morning he's like, you know, like he thinks that when
he sends another news report, like he's doing his part.

(01:09:33):
I'm doing the good work to fight against Trump. I'm
going to post this article about how Trump is awful.
See did my job. Just like people buying prius, they
think that they've just saved the sun from blowing up
the earth. See I brought a Prius. Now the sun
will no longer affect our climate. Yes, it's a used Prius,

(01:09:56):
so I apologize, certified.

Speaker 5 (01:09:58):
Pre owned.

Speaker 3 (01:10:00):
I purchased it, and now you are safe. You do
not have to worry about rising tides because I purchased
this Prius. It's blue like the ocean that I'm saving
you from. We gotta take a break. We'll be back.

(01:10:21):
More news, more views. Who got traffic of weather coming
up the streets? On the radio, and I'll get you
a phone call. Stand by. It's news Talk ten ad WT, I.

Speaker 1 (01:10:28):
S it's race on the radio on news w T.
I see, I see.

Speaker 3 (01:10:34):
I see totally too, and all of this crazy stuff
behind the scenes. Paying attention to the show as well.
I'm trying to get in touch with Roseanne. I got
some good news for her, but she's not an answer.
I think she's napping. She had a long day today
and driving her all over the place. We went to
a place Roland called Elizabeth Park Are you familiar with that?

(01:10:56):
Have you ever been there? You've had to have been there, Yeah,
of course, Elizabeth Parking has been there. Okay, have you
seen the homes over at Elizabeth?

Speaker 12 (01:11:04):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (01:11:04):
Yeah, absolutely, they're not homes.

Speaker 3 (01:11:07):
Oh my goodness that you know. I again, there are
so many places I haven't been in the Hartford and
West Hartford area, but we went by there. We were
just driving there coming from Torrington and there's like one
road that you go down all the way into town
and we drove by these houses as we knew we
were getting closer, and I gotta admit, I'm like, I've

(01:11:30):
never been more awestruck. I'm like, damn, it's like every
house was better than the other, and they're just like
they're just beautiful and not that I ever want, like
Roseanna to look at those houses like I want to
live in that house. I'm on the other hand, going
too many windows and too many, too many rooms, a
lot of cleaning. Like I've never been the person who's

(01:11:54):
envious of like mansions, Like no, no, no, I totally
you got the money to live in, please do have
at it. I love looking at them, and I'm so
thankful that I get to see them, Like driving by,
it's such a beautiful thing to witness. It's like there's
that kind of wealth, there's that kind of home building.

(01:12:14):
These houses just how pretty it looks like I'm I'm
in awe of its beauty. But I'd never been to
that neck of the woods and be that close to
Hartford and be like wow, Like I could see the
skyline from that town. And we're like, I'm looking at
the map or you know, as we're you know, looking
at GPS, and I see Elizabeth Park and I'm like,

(01:12:36):
I've never been to this part of town. God, is
it beautiful. If you know somebody who lives there, please
let them know that I drove through their neighborhood today
and I'm just please let them know that it is beautiful,
and please let me walk through that neighborhood. If you
want to give me a tour of your house, I'll
take the tour. But Roseanne can't come because she won't leave.
I'm telling you you'll have to call the cops to

(01:12:57):
get her out. She'll scream squatter's rights. But I'm just
telling you that all of those homes are beautiful. You
have no idea I appreciate just.

Speaker 9 (01:13:04):
Having around the corner from here.

Speaker 3 (01:13:07):
Really, yeah, yeah, I gotta see. I have to see
some of them. They're so you know what it is,
it's so picturesque. It's the time of the of the
year with those homes have like the most scenic value,
you know what I mean. It's just looking the leaves
and the trees and the dark, you know, sort of
you know, mix of daylight and dark, and it just

(01:13:29):
looks it's not gloomy. It just looks picturesque. It's rock well.
I love every bit of it.

Speaker 9 (01:13:35):
Any vampires over there, why just I'm just curious what
what type.

Speaker 3 (01:13:41):
Of insanity is that? Vampires? For one?

Speaker 2 (01:13:45):
Like what that.

Speaker 3 (01:13:48):
Live forever? That's insanity anyway. I'm just saying I just
loved looking at it. I'm just just telling any one
who knows anyone who lives there, and if you listen
to this program, I mean you own one of those
those spots, or you're a real estate agent who can
show one of those places to me, please please invite me.

(01:14:11):
I would love to see just any one of them,
just to walk through it, to have the experience, because
they're just beautiful. I just I want to experience the beauty.
That's all I want to do. I want to share
in it, soak it into everybody else who loves to
go to Paris and all of those other places. I
just want to walk through a mansion once, you know,
and I've watched walk through a couple of like really

(01:14:31):
really nice homes like penthouses and stuff like that. But
to walk through one of those houses, just to see
the indoor and out, just all of it. I just
want to be in that, in that space and say
I've been there.

Speaker 8 (01:14:44):
Yeah, it's just people been here.

Speaker 9 (01:14:45):
In a two thousand and five on we threw a

They've got all of these baseball fields or softball fields.
I think it's like fifteen of them or something. It's
like like almost all of them were packed loaded with

(01:17:37):
girls playing softball and they are serious contenders. It's such
a great atmosphere and all the girls are there and
they're playing their competitive they're chanting and they're shouting each
other out. It's such an amazing thing to watch. But
Fast Pitch Nation Park was a lot of fun for

Let's get it out of the Checker Weather in traffic,
Mark Christopher, he's in the BPS traffic center.

Speaker 1 (01:18:09):
Hey, Mark, it's Reese on the radio on news to
ten A WT. I see, I see, all right.

Speaker 3 (01:18:15):
Let's get to some phones ahex zero five T two WT.

Speaker 15 (01:18:18):
I S what up, Ralph, Good afternoon, Reseach.

Speaker 13 (01:18:22):
A couple things.

Speaker 15 (01:18:22):
First of all, your buddy Murphy. I know you're very close,
but here's a scumbag who had a chance with the
other Democrats to vote just to pay our military. They
voted no.

Speaker 3 (01:18:36):
Of course he didn't. That's why I said, I mean,
there was the reason why I pointed out his Sunday post.
His Sunday post is saying that Donald Trump wants to
starve kids. Then they get a deal last night, and
he's like, oh, you guys have to deal with the pain.
So the guy who's really trying to starve kids turns
out to beat Murphy.

Speaker 15 (01:18:54):
And the Democrats rece Do you think if there was
a national referendum, and I said, let the American people vote,
if you shut the government down, you don't get.

Speaker 3 (01:19:05):
Paid without a doubt, without a doubt in fact, that's
you know, I almost feel like Donald Trump should have
made that, you know, I wish he had done a
public appeal to the American people, like had an address
from the Oval office during prime time and would have

(01:19:28):
addressed that and even had suggested it as a conversation.
Think about this, Ralph, if he had said that like
sort of like a what do you call a fireside
chat and it said that the next time that there's
a government shut down, that members of Congress should not
be paid, forcing news media on the Sunday shows to

(01:19:49):
ask their guests that question, and then getting them on
the record to say, well, the president is crazy about that.
You know we're supposed to be Make them have that
conversation with their constituents, and that would definitely have put
the rub on the whole deal. That's what should have happened,
right breast.

Speaker 15 (01:20:06):
The main reason I called is I had a conversation
with two friends of mine vote Black, and unbelievable the
way these people think. First of all, I'm they're Democrats,
and I think, and I'm just maybe pushing a little bit,
if a Democrat raped their mother or wife, they would

(01:20:27):
still vote for him. But when I was talking about
the shutdown, and first thing, well, the Republicans control everything,
I says, no, it's sixty votes in the Senate. Though
they control everything, I says, they need sixty votes in
the Senate. Is that true or not? No answer, Yeah,
but you're.

Speaker 3 (01:20:43):
Never going to get that. Did you hear what Carvill
said last week? Did you hear what Carvil said about that? Okay,
this was insane For those of you who didn't, who
missed it, let me tell you what James Carvill, the
old rage and cajun said after the Tuesday vote last week.
He said, us for giggles, he is going to run
a convicted pedophile under the Democrat ticket, and I bet

(01:21:08):
you he will win. The reason why he said that
was because he couldn't believe that Jay Johnson or Jay
Jones is his name, the attorney now attorney general elect
in Virginia, after saying that he would kill a Republican's children,
much less shoot the speaker in the head, because in

(01:21:28):
order for them to understand Republicans for that matter, that
they would vote for him in Virginia. He's saying that
Democrats to this point have gotten so off the rails
it doesn't matter what the individual would have done, they'd
vote for him. So no, no, And he's saying the
quiet part out loud, the hatred of Republicans and for

(01:21:49):
that matter, Donald Trump is that those folks will go
to any ends of the earth to vote for a Democrat.
They've got no morals while they sit around telling us
about theirs about hours, they have none.

Speaker 15 (01:22:02):
But this guy also said he wanted to see more
cops killed, didn't he.

Speaker 3 (01:22:05):
Yes, again saying this guy said exactly what Democrats think
of everything from Republican children to Republicans overall, to the
police and everything. And Democrats look at that and they go, Yep,
that's my guy. And that's why Carl said what he said.

Speaker 15 (01:22:23):
These people, in my mind, they're not Americans. They're Democrats.
And there's a great big difference between a hardcore Democrat
and being a loyal American. And these people do not
care about their country. Their party comes first, their country
comes last. Again, will they ever wake up?

Speaker 3 (01:22:42):
Who knows? Who knows? Who can never know? Let's go
to Dan and East windsor how are you Dan?

Speaker 14 (01:22:49):
Hey recite?

Speaker 17 (01:22:51):
Just out of curiosity, were that favorite listener happened to
be somebody handed?

Speaker 3 (01:22:57):
No? Not him, absolutely not. What's going on?

Speaker 18 (01:23:00):
Oh?

Speaker 14 (01:23:00):
Oh hey? Just a quick note, Brtgage is what I
call about. You want to see some mansions? You ought
to go to the.

Speaker 17 (01:23:06):
Mansions in Newport, Rhode Island, and I believe they actually
have tourists. I'm not positiving that, but I believe they do.

Speaker 3 (01:23:12):
I no, no, I've actually been to several places in
Rhode Island. But I got it. Yeah. Roland said, well,
we're talking about Connecticut. No, no, I've been to plenty
of places. But I'm just saying that that was a
little kind of like place that I had never seen before,
so close to the city. It was beautiful. But yeah, no, no,
I love manches no matter where they are.

Speaker 14 (01:23:34):
But thank you anyway.

Speaker 17 (01:23:35):
Anyway, what I call about is, you know what I
do every time I hear somebody complain about the shutdown
and try to blame Republicans and Trump, I tell them
fin out, I tell them. Look, the healthcare bill was
written entirely by Democrats. Obamacare, yep. It was voted on
entirely by Democrats without one single Republican voting for it,

(01:23:56):
and signed this law by a Democrat. So it was
Democrats that put the expiration dates in here to begin with.
They could have made the subjects not expiring, but they
chose to put the expiration dates in there. So and
now Democrats want to blame Trump.

Speaker 3 (01:24:10):
You know what, here was my favorite part about that
hold on you you're missing my favorite part about that
because someone mentioned that on CNN right, that the that
the Democrats put an expiration date on the subsidies, right,
and you know what they said, They said it the
behesse the Republicans. And my response to that was really,
now that like of all the times in the world

(01:24:31):
when Democrats could capitulate to Republicans on the Affordable Car Act,
they did. They went, they went, hey, let's put a
cap on the subsidies, Republicans said.

Speaker 17 (01:24:41):
Democrats went, sure, yeah, that then then why didn't want
to go Republican vote for it?

Speaker 3 (01:24:48):
Exactly? It's ridiculous. It's like, didn't need Republicans any other
time except a cap on the subsidies.

Speaker 17 (01:24:55):
And and hey, why why I got you here? I
had come, I commented, I was last week when you
were looking for things to do in Connecticut and I
suggested to the Broadbrook Opera House. You put a laughing
face on it. I said, don't don't want to name
pool you.

Speaker 3 (01:25:11):
Oh no, no, no, you can really check it out.

Speaker 14 (01:25:14):
All kinds of shows there you have.

Speaker 3 (01:25:16):
I thought you were kidding when you said the opera house. No,
you didn't really think that I actually watched opera.

Speaker 8 (01:25:21):
Did you.

Speaker 14 (01:25:22):
No.

Speaker 17 (01:25:22):
No, they don't have operas there. They have all maybe
they use of long time was for years and years
and then somebody bought it renovated it holds.

Speaker 14 (01:25:32):
There's four hundred and sixty seats there.

Speaker 17 (01:25:34):
They have all kinds of tribute bands that they've upcome
in and got a Van Haling tribute band and got Oh.

Speaker 3 (01:25:40):
I know exactly what you're talking about because I know
about I.

Speaker 17 (01:25:42):
Know about Sweet Baby James.

Speaker 10 (01:25:44):
All.

Speaker 3 (01:25:45):
I do know which place you're talking about, because I
did see the fan of Haling tribute ban uh is
going to be there. I know exactly where you're talking about.
But no, I appreciate you sending in anyway.

Speaker 14 (01:25:54):
Yeah, that's a that's a cool place.

Speaker 3 (01:25:56):
Yeah, thank you man, I appreciate you. Yeah, you got it.
Tom is in Thomaston. How are you, sir? What's going on?

Speaker 14 (01:26:03):
I am well, thanks, Chris.

Speaker 4 (01:26:05):
He uh.

Speaker 14 (01:26:08):
Just before I got into the car, I had watched
that the video of h Jimmy Kimmel and his wife. Yes,
those two women. Yes, that is that is total Trump derangements.

Speaker 3 (01:26:23):
Isn't it? She said? She again she says that her
family voted for Trump and she has to choose between
her family and the man who's fighting Trump. And I'm like,
do you not know who your husband is?

Speaker 12 (01:26:38):
Like?

Speaker 3 (01:26:38):
Are you the only person in the room who doesn't
know what your husband does for a living? Like your
husband is fighting Trump.

Speaker 14 (01:26:48):
One of the statements she made, Jimmy corrected her. She said,
like it might be and he says, no, it is.
It definitely is. And she says, yes, it definitely is.
He like correct her on one of her one of
her statements, ugh, And she said, every time like Trump
does something, she feels like a wound that one of

(01:27:10):
her family members, her uncle's, her cousins gave her.

Speaker 3 (01:27:14):
It was it was, she says it. I'll tell you
know all you needed to know about her, Tom, let
me tell you what you need to know about her.
During that whole interview, she says the words that resonated
with me immediately. As an alcoholic, she said, I'm angry
all the time, But as an alcoholic, I have recognized

(01:27:36):
one thing. My anger is never about them, It's always
about me. And also my anger comes from one place,
and that's fear. That's where her anger is and sir,
fear is that no one's listening to her, even her
own family. She thinks she's so important, she thinks her
husband is so important, and she is fearful that she

(01:27:57):
cannot influence them, that she has no control. That's where
that's why she's angry all the time, and she needs to.

Speaker 16 (01:28:05):
Just let go.

Speaker 14 (01:28:08):
Yeah, they can't because Trump is the manifestation of all
their fears.

Speaker 3 (01:28:13):
Exactly, a manifestation of all their fears. Because again, they
think that they're right. That's the whole deal. They think
that they're right, and they're so certain of it that
they can't get out of their own way. So the
only choice they have is anger. But remember what I said, right,
She thinks her husband is fighting Trump, even though he's
just telling jokes for a living. He's got writers telling
him to tell jokes, and she thinks he's actually fighting

(01:28:36):
the president of the United States. They are no delusional
than people who think buying a prius is fighting climate change.
That's all she is.

Speaker 14 (01:28:44):
All of them are delisial. Hey Reees, Yeah, when you're
talking to Karen on Friday, motive made motivated me to
finally get down there. I did. Some helped them out
on Saturday for.

Speaker 3 (01:28:56):
A while, did joke?

Speaker 13 (01:28:57):
Really nice?

Speaker 14 (01:28:58):
Yeah, that's a really nice building.

Speaker 3 (01:29:00):
It's beauty. You took the tour, did you? Did you
take did you take the tour of the whole building?

Speaker 19 (01:29:06):
Oh?

Speaker 14 (01:29:07):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I walked around with Karen. Yeah it
was it was impressive.

Speaker 8 (01:29:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:29:11):
What that what they've done at that place. It's not
even done yet. But when it is, when he's ready
to go, which will only be in a short time, God,
is going to be great. I'm not I'm not gonna lie.
I think I'm gonna spend a lot of time up
there helping out. It's a beautiful place.

Speaker 14 (01:29:26):
She seems like a really good person.

Speaker 19 (01:29:28):
She is, she's the best in the building.

Speaker 3 (01:29:33):
So Tom, I hope that the thank you that this
show inspired you to do that, I hope it inspires more.
But thank you for going up there and volunteer. Man,
it means a lot.

Speaker 14 (01:29:43):
I wanted to get up early in the morning and
come meet you this morning.

Speaker 3 (01:29:48):
That's okay, don't worry about you have plenty of time,
I promise. All right, you got it, buddy, Let's go
a rude day. What's going on? Bros Man?

Speaker 7 (01:29:59):
Oh? Girlfriend, he stole my thunder. I thought you were
talking about him as well.

Speaker 3 (01:30:04):
No, I'm talking about somebody else.

Speaker 7 (01:30:06):

I was still I was still ride with those ridiculous Nicks.

Speaker 16 (01:30:39):
Days.

Speaker 3 (01:30:39):
Yeah yeah, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 7 (01:30:41):
The sad sack of You know what my backcourt teammate
in high school from bed Sty, from the projects, and
he's like Bernard's gonna.

Speaker 3 (01:30:49):
Beat Oh, sure enough. We had so many high hopes.

Speaker 7 (01:30:54):
Yeah, and Spike Lee and anyways, Steve Brown black Eye
get signed by Cething. It's gonna get a huge signing bonus,
first round pick. He's buying a house in Wellesley, Massachusetts,
which I'm sure you're well aware of what that is.
He walks into a bank to get a mortgage. Man,

(01:31:16):
that's hard for it, right, They're gonna call the police
if you show up there.

Speaker 3 (01:31:20):
Oh, don't say that I drove through that neighborhood.

Speaker 13 (01:31:24):
You go through, But did you get out and go
into a bank?

Speaker 3 (01:31:27):
I make into a press conference. I wasn't trying to look,
just making a point. Now, people listen to me this.
Let me tell you something. I get this all the time.
I get told all the time, don't go through that neighborhood.
They'll stop you. I'm like, come on, I never had anyone.
I'm too it'd be something different if I look like
little Wayne walking through the neighborhood. When I walk through

(01:31:48):
a neighborhood, people always know.

Speaker 12 (01:31:51):
What your hood in your head and your scruff on
your face. Surprised you don't have a box.

Speaker 13 (01:31:56):
On your back.

Speaker 3 (01:31:58):
I f listen to me, I walked through plenty neighborhoods.

Speaker 7 (01:32:01):
And you know something, I'm assuming you dress better when
you go out than when you're on on Twitter.

Speaker 3 (01:32:08):
In a T shirt in the hat is what I
wear in one, but I would usually wear like that.

Speaker 7 (01:32:11):
We're going to call the police on you.

Speaker 3 (01:32:13):
I wear a button down shirt. I look like every
I look like every.

Speaker 14 (01:32:18):
So you got the Uncle Tom part.

Speaker 3 (01:32:21):
Okay, he's done. We're not friends. Yeah.

Speaker 13 (01:32:24):
Really.

Speaker 7 (01:32:24):
My real reason to call, though, is what friend from Wallingford.

Speaker 12 (01:32:29):
I didn't notice this, but he was.

Speaker 20 (01:32:31):
Crying and bemoaning to me, and I shouldn't be doing
his bidding, but I was unaware and that his words.
Mister free speech host banned me from the show and
I only caught part of your your call on the
twenty eighth last week.

Speaker 3 (01:32:48):
Yeah, I didn't. I didn't ban him because of because
of some.

Speaker 7 (01:32:51):
Callan he's telling me heard me call.

Speaker 12 (01:32:58):
And he would like to rebottle.

Speaker 7 (01:32:59):
I must have said something about him, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:33:01):
Yeah, I mean I don't. I don't know what it was.

Speaker 2 (01:33:02):
But I mean, do you mean?

Speaker 3 (01:33:04):
I mean, do you want me to be I can
be honest here. I mean, I don't tell. You know,
first of all, I got no reason to lie. I've
got no reason to be yes. But you know, I'm
very very vocal about my sobriety, not that I have
anything to be ashamed of. I you know, I go
to AA meetings, you know, and and I talk about
my sobriety often and they say, you know that they

(01:33:25):
don't you know, personalities, you know, notwithstanding you know, it's
about uh, it's running your program and stuff like that.
So I don't talk about my sobriety in the sense
of like trying to brag is like, well, God got
to hold I don't do any of that. I don't care.
I don't care about that. It wasn't no, no, no,
it wasn't that.

Speaker 20 (01:33:44):
I remember when he came out of the closet on
the radio and celebrating it.

Speaker 3 (01:33:48):
Let me celebrate it. Let me because I gotta take
I got to take a break of the second. Let
me just make it very clear what happened. It wasn't
that I posted something on Facebook. He took liberty to
join in on the conversation, which I have no issue with.
But it was when he instead said the statement, uh,
you need to go back to your twelve step program

(01:34:10):
on the on the post, which to me is a
bridge too far. I consider that's worse than talking about
my mother as far as I'm concerned.

Speaker 7 (01:34:20):
You know, of all people, of all people, he shouldn't
cast the first stone.

Speaker 3 (01:34:26):
And the fact that he said it at that point,
I didn't call him and tell him your ban from
the program them I immediately unfriended him on both sides
of the platform and just said I'm just not and
just said no. After that, I'm just like, there's nothing
else to say. It was it was not It's not
wasn't so much. It was cruel, it was unnecessary. You

(01:34:47):
could have a debate with me, but you don't have
to go you don't have to go that low anyway.
Let me get the weather in traffic, God bless your
I gotta go. Let's get another check of whether in
traffic Mark Chris, he's gonna be ps traffic Center.

Speaker 1 (01:35:01):
Hey man, locked race on the radio is on w T.

Speaker 3 (01:35:06):
I see, all right, we are back Hollywood News. Also
coming up a franchise that I love, And I know
I talk about how silly sequels can be, but there
are some franchises out there that have made sequels that
I really really enjoyed. So I hear that a new
one is in the works. The star of the franchise

(01:35:26):
has already talked about getting what was on board. Uh,
so that's coming up. And also I have some other
news about Margot Robbie, which I'm not I don't know,
I'm just what am I not getting about Margot Robbie.
What am I not getting over Roland?

Speaker 13 (01:35:42):
Do you know?

Speaker 3 (01:35:42):
What do you do? You know herb she played in
the Barbie movie? What am I not understanding about her?
I mean, I get she's gone, she's pretty. I get that,
you know, she's statuesque, and you know it's it's nothing
wrong with her. I mean, I look at her. She's pretty.
But I'm not getting the fanfare of Margot Robbie.

Speaker 12 (01:36:00):
She does.

Speaker 3 (01:36:01):
I mean, Julia Roberts was considered, you know, much more
Hollywood than Margot Robbie. And I know that that sounds
crazy because Julia Roberts is, you know, she's a Hollywood seven.
Margot Robbie's clearly like a ten to twelve without a doubt.
But I'm not enthusiastic about her when I see her.

(01:36:24):
With the exception of Margot Robbie in that movie I Tanya,
have you did you see that about Tanya Harding?

Speaker 8 (01:36:31):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:36:31):
No, oh, you have to say, even if you don't
know the Tanya Harding story of like if you know
a little bit about it, Margot Robbie kills that movie.
I was absolutely great and the guy I liked.

Speaker 8 (01:36:42):
Her in the Will Smith movie Focus Focused.

Speaker 3 (01:36:46):
Fuck you liked her in that. I never watched that.

Speaker 8 (01:36:48):
Ye that that was a good movie.

Speaker 3 (01:36:50):
Everybody said that it was. Yeah, people people like her that,
but I don't get like the fascination with her. I
would have never seen the Barbie movie anyway, but I
Anya was so good, probably because I knew that story
backwards and forwards. But Marco Robbie just really really like
she did a great job on that on that film.
It's just I couldn't leave uh my seat.

Speaker 9 (01:37:13):
Watching Suicide Squad. That's why I didn't like that either.
Well that's what that's what made everybody go crazy. That
what everybody's crazy about her?

Speaker 3 (01:37:20):
Yeah, okay, because she played I mean guess I'm assuming
she played that role so well. In their opinion of
Harley Quinn girlfriend, yeah, I like I said, I watched it.
I was just like, eh, like, because you know who
really who played was the Harley Quinn in the in
the Joaquin Phoenus was was Lady Gaga And people said
that they panned that it was so did you watch

(01:37:42):
it the Joker too?

Speaker 8 (01:37:45):
I saw the first one. Is just it's so much
story involved.

Speaker 3 (01:37:48):
In Let's get another check of the whether or traffic
was Mark Christopher. He's in the BPS traffic center and
the rain affecting weather real bad today.

Speaker 19 (01:38:03):
I hate it's just enough to be annoying.

Speaker 5 (01:38:06):
Yeah, yeah, that's about it. But it's not really a doing.

Speaker 2 (01:38:09):
You know.

Speaker 5 (01:38:09):
You gotta be careful on the secondary roads with all the.

Speaker 3 (01:38:12):
Leaves, and that's it.

Speaker 19 (01:38:13):
You don't have to deal with that down in Texas.
But now that you're up here in the Constitution State,
you have to alert to you of these things.

Speaker 3 (01:38:19):
Reese.

Speaker 19 (01:38:21):
Yeah, when you come to an intersection, take it easy
because it can get slippery, that's right if and tomorrow
is only going to be like forty degrees, so a
little shock for the system for you tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (01:38:32):
The NAACP calls him. WHOA, I don't think I'm all
read this. It's Ree on the radio. Let's just say
some people are not fans News Talk ten eighty wt
I series.

Speaker 3 (01:38:46):
Let me get back to the phones in a second.
Julia Roberts is at ten. Who says that? Who would
say that? I mean, I've got nothing against Julia Roberts,
but I would say, I said, a Hollywood seven, which
is still better than average. You've got average seven's in

(01:39:08):
the world. A Hollywood seven is clearly leaps and bounds
above average folks. But when I look at Julia Roberts,
do I say to myself, what a babe? No, I said,
she's an attractive Hollywood actress. I don't put her up there.
You want to know my I'll put it to you
this way. I'll go one step further. Okay, I've got

(01:39:29):
a particular taste, my favorite of all time. Three women,
three women, And that is why am I forgetting her
name now? But it'll come to me. But the other
one is I'm I've always been partial to Mary steam Virgin.
I love her. An Archer is another one I always loved, Oh,

(01:39:50):
An Archer. I fell in love with Ann Archer when
she was in uh that movie with Gene Hackman and
somebody's gonna remember the name of it because they's escaping
me now, uh where she's running from some people trying
to kill her. Gene Hackman is trying to get her
from the mountains back to Chicago. I think to uh

(01:40:11):
to testify because he goes on a blind date and
the guy ends up being murdered while she's on the
on the date, and I fell in love her immediately.
Then then she was in Patriot games as well, but
I would never ever like No, Julia Roberts is just
not my cup of tea. I know I'm gonna get
hell for that, but whatever it happens, let's go to

(01:40:34):
Dolly as in Bristol.

Speaker 21 (01:40:35):
Hello Dolly, Hello there.

Speaker 3 (01:40:38):
I know you get that enough, but I couldn't help myself.
I couldn't resist. No, how you doing?

Speaker 21 (01:40:44):
You know what I just wanted to I think this
sentence that Bob Dole, who was a former politician, a
Republican and did a wonderful job. He was in the
Second World War, came home with quite a few injuries
and everything, and served our country, continued to serve our

(01:41:07):
country in the Congress, and I was reading a book
about him, and this is what he said, and it
just struck me. You fought a war for freedom, to
protect democracy in distant lens. How can you stand aside
and allow us to decay on our own soil? And

(01:41:30):
to me, that speaks of today.

Speaker 3 (01:41:33):
Yeah, I think that's you know that. I don't even
understand how people do not take that into consideration, especially
as they serve their constituents state to state, city and city,
or even borrow to borrow you one hundred right, And

(01:41:53):
I think don let me ask you this and I'll
put it in a question rather than making a statement.
Do you believe that there has been a role reversal
in these public servants who think in some way that
they are the rulers, like they become the ruling class.

Speaker 21 (01:42:10):
I did feel that way under the previous administration.

Speaker 3 (01:42:15):
Well, yeah, I can say.

Speaker 21 (01:42:16):
And I thought they were telling us what we could say,
what we couldn't say, what we could do, what we
couldn't do, and saying that they were their children. And
it was It was not a good feeling. Yeah, but
there are still a lot of good people out there
serving us.

Speaker 3 (01:42:36):
Yeah, I do believe that a lot of people get
lost in the sauce of that notoriety, if you will.
I remember that one classic moment Dianne Feinstein was having
an exchange with a witness in a hearing and an
oversight hearing where she made the big guff about being
referred to as a as a senator and talking about

(01:42:58):
how she had earned it. I'll never forget that. It's
just like that that has always rubbed me the wrong
way because maybe I'm maybe you and I are looking
at their roles different than the rest of the country does,
because I look at the rest of the country and
I almost see them capitulating to the ruling class, seeing
them as their rulers, as opposed to the people who

(01:43:20):
are supposed to do their bidding.

Speaker 21 (01:43:22):
They're serving us.

Speaker 3 (01:43:23):
Yes, exactly, exactly.

Speaker 16 (01:43:25):
You know.

Speaker 21 (01:43:26):
And I want to say thank you to all the
men and women who have served our country, who have
protected it, and I pray to God it doesn't go
to waste.

Speaker 3 (01:43:37):
Yeah, indeed, thank you so much, Dolly, you got it.
Thank you for the call. Good Bye bye. Let's go
to Tim before I go to my good friend Frank.

Speaker 5 (01:43:47):
What's going on, Tim?

Speaker 13 (01:43:48):
What's going on? You're going on? Man?

Speaker 18 (01:43:50):
You should stop by one eighteen Palisado. I have some
time to visit with us. But aside from that, the
Broadbrook Opera House four houses from my house. Okay, love
to see you over there too. And you're a big
hitover on palis to alf. We were talking about you
the other day and I was talking I was reading
The Language of the Heart last night with somebody and
we were talking about you also. But yeah, you know,

(01:44:12):
there's a lot a lot of people out there that
are very ill and they're very sick. And they call
it Trump arrangement syndrome. But some of these people you
just can't reason with. And so what's the best you
can do is maybe understand them. And when I'm trying
to be funny, I don't understand them, and I say
stuff about them, but I'm when it comes down to, like,
I know a lady I know for thirty years in
the same community, and you know, she is deathly afraid.

(01:44:36):
She's an old lady. She reads, she really listens to DNC, MSDNC,
and you know, so I mean she was like to
the point where she didn't want to go anywhere anymore,
and you know, he kind of had to talk her
off the ledge.

Speaker 13 (01:44:48):
That's what we need to do.

Speaker 18 (01:44:49):
We need to talk to these people off the ledge,
hit them with the truth very gently, and see if
they don't come around. But some of these people are
too far gone to Politicians have a vested interest. Some
people just don't know. And that's the sad truth about
this whole thing. They think they're being uh you know,
uh compassionate or whatever, but what they're really doing is
undermined and you know the country and oh another thing

(01:45:13):
about the West, end of Hertford.

Speaker 13 (01:45:15):
Yeah, you can go anywhere.

Speaker 18 (01:45:16):
That's the most sexually liberated I grew up.

Speaker 14 (01:45:20):
We moved.

Speaker 18 (01:45:20):
It wouldn't matter what you did. A cop told me
one time, if you could name it, we can blame
it in the West End. Okay, just so you know,
they didn't stop, but nobody from doing nothing in the
West End.

Speaker 3 (01:45:31):
Okay, you gotta God bless you. Hey, Frank d Boy,
How are you doing, sir?

Speaker 12 (01:45:38):
Yeah, a couple of things. One movie made a great
point at one time in this country. And you notice
it's true. It was a waste of time. It was
a waste of time for black men to walk into
a bank and try to get a loan.

Speaker 3 (01:45:52):
I thought about, you know what's so funny, this is
a true story. When I started, when I started my
movingany uh, someone has suggested to me and there's like,
you know, they'll give a loan to you men you're
a black business owner. And I looked them up and
down and I just went, yeah, no, thank you. It's
like that's quite all right. Primarily because I didn't want

(01:46:15):
to start off the company in debt that early. I
didn't know if I was going to do it for
a year much less two. Uh, So I didn't want
to take on any debt like that immediately. Plus I
thought about that. I said, if I start small and
I grow, then I'll you know, I'll turn it into
something on my own, like you know, in essence, on

(01:46:38):
my own terms. Uh. And it did. It grew exactly
on my own terms, and I and I did a
great job doing it. But you're right. I would have
never even thought to go to a bank to get
a loan. It's just in my head.

Speaker 2 (01:46:49):
I just went.

Speaker 3 (01:46:49):
Not not not that I thought that they'd be racist.
I just didn't think that. No, it's because it's what
they gave me up putting this way, you know what
really really put a sort of a stink on going
into a bank. It's what I had to go through
to get insurance was really tough because of a movie.

(01:47:11):
They didn't want to give me insurance unless I had
a brick and mortar location that they could leverage. They
didn't want to do it.

Speaker 12 (01:47:19):
We are so many black men walking into my father's
house with a white envelope every month. I didn't know
what the hell was going on.

Speaker 3 (01:47:26):
You know, I've never told you this, but you know
I had an opportunity once and I was a kid
to do that, to actually borrow borrow money in a
large gale. I remember the kid, never forget him in
a story of Queen's guy gave me an opportunity to
start my own business when I was younger, like twenty
years old, and you know, they could tell, you know,
they were telling me that, you know, oh, you know,

(01:47:47):
you just have to pay every week. And I thought
about it. I said, no, no, thank you.

Speaker 12 (01:47:52):
I have to say. This is why though, and I
never in my life, so I am so proud of
our government. Met Lamark. I woke up Sunday morning and
my phone was blowing up. I have a lot, you know,
I know a lot of poor and most of the
black women they were just crying. I said, what's the matter,
Frank Ned Lamont put the full amount of food stamps

(01:48:14):
into our account, Ned Lamont, are you kidding me? No,
he did, and he was right. He fully funded the
whole SNAP program for the state of the Connecticut. Miss Lamont,
I want to tell you this from my heart. Really,
God bless you. Yeah, he did. God bless you, Miss Lamont.

Speaker 3 (01:48:30):
Why are you blessing him?

Speaker 12 (01:48:32):
Because it was the right thing.

Speaker 13 (01:48:33):
To do.

Speaker 3 (01:48:33):
I told you, why did he wait so long?

Speaker 12 (01:48:36):
Well, he didn't wait that long. Well, he said it
was good Friday, he said it was immoral Sunday morning,
the money was in there.

Speaker 3 (01:48:43):
Yeah, and what did he do, hold on? Hold on?
What did he do at the same time, What did
he do at the same time that he said he
was going to release those funds? What was the other
thing that he did?

Speaker 12 (01:48:55):
Well, he was holding he was on the side of
the Democrats.

Speaker 3 (01:48:58):
I know, no, but remember he also filed his paperwork
for run for reelection.

Speaker 22 (01:49:03):
Oh yeah, I listen.

Speaker 12 (01:49:04):
I never said he was stupid.

Speaker 3 (01:49:07):
I'm just saying, okay, well it was a political move.

Speaker 12 (01:49:11):
Yeah, it was a political move.

Speaker 3 (01:49:13):
Didn't give up and he went, you know what, how
about this one? Lamont's a billionaire, right, how much money
did it cost to fund snap in.

Speaker 12 (01:49:22):
Uh in heart was that it costs seventy two million
dollars to fund the program for Connecticut.

Speaker 3 (01:49:28):
He'd gotten paid, he would have been paid back, right.

Speaker 12 (01:49:32):
Well, yeah, but the thing is that money that seventy
two million was from the Rainy Day Fund and a
lot of that is my money.

Speaker 3 (01:49:38):
That one, Okay, even if it's the Rainy Day fund,
why wouldn't he get I'm just saying, here's the thing, right.

Speaker 14 (01:49:44):
He didn't though, No, he didn't have to do it.

Speaker 3 (01:49:47):
But my question is this, and this was what I
was gonna do later on today. But since you're stealing
my thunder, let's let's look at this. Here's the one thing.
This is one of the richest states in the Union,
right Donald Trump found out that we weren't going to
pay the troops. Sure enough, somebody from what was it

(01:50:07):
the Mellon Bank offers up one hundred and thirty, one
hundred and fifty million dollars to pay them for one paycheck.
Where's Lamont's like, where's all of his homies, where are
all of his friends and state of Connecticut who supported
him in fund his campaign to put some money together
to take care of all of the EBT needs other
people in Connecticut. How many people do we have on

(01:50:30):
EBT in the state? Thirty nine thousand.

Speaker 12 (01:50:33):
Oh no, it's about three hundred and fifty thousand.

Speaker 3 (01:50:36):
Yeah, you're absolutely, but I apologize three hundred you're right,
you one hundred percent. Actually, it's just under the population
of African Americans in the state of Connecticut. So okay,
why didn't he get all of them to just donate
the money? And if it had been gone back into
the coffers, either people could have gotten tax credits for
it or whatever the case is. But where were the
donations coming from. These guys are supposed to be the
richest people in the world, and I never see.

Speaker 12 (01:50:58):
These folks come out of pocket. Listen, I can't argue
the point why he did it. I don't care why
he did it.

Speaker 3 (01:51:04):
He did it, yeah, but it's not listening. Oh oh,
but I understand the fact that he did it. Okay,
But he's got three hundred and fifty thousand people in
the state who, in essene it from your own words,
who were going to starve unless they got food stamps.
The crazy part about that is is that this guy

(01:51:24):
in one breath, I've got him at the Friendly Hands
Food Bank celebrating the expansion of a food program because
people can't afford to eat. And at the same time,
he is also going into the Rainy Day Fund because
he's got more people than he can spit at that
he needs to get EBT for he has made nothing.
Oh and by the way, he announces he's running for reelection.

(01:51:46):
What both of those things he shows up for. I'm
telling you this is not something from the celebrate.

Speaker 12 (01:51:53):
Well listen, I understand his motives, but here's the bottom line.
The food on the table. I always said, I don't
care how that food gets on the table.

Speaker 3 (01:52:04):
He should have never put anybody in a position in
the state of Connecticut to be worrying about government assistance.
As a government no, no, his responsibility is to make
sure that the people who live in the state of
Connecticut actually have good jobs, good paying jobs, and can
actually feed their family.

Speaker 12 (01:52:22):
That's true. But when it comes to when it comes
to food stamps, momont is the governor of Connecticut. That
is the federal government's response.

Speaker 3 (01:52:29):
I'm well aware. I'm well aware of that. But all
he needed to do was tell his colleagues Bluementhal and
Murphy to get into Washington and to actually signed that
CR And he never did that. He called it on
He knew that the reason why that CR what didn't
pass twos.

Speaker 12 (01:52:46):
I can't argue with your points. I don't care what.

Speaker 3 (01:52:49):
I know you don't care. I know you don't care
because all of that is procedural.

Speaker 12 (01:52:53):
The food.

Speaker 3 (01:52:56):
I know you care about.

Speaker 14 (01:52:57):
The bottom line, I get you.

Speaker 12 (01:52:59):
I get you.

Speaker 3 (01:53:00):
Thank you, Frank. I always appreciate you, buddy. Now my
bottom lines I don't again. I get where Frank's coming from,
and said, these people finally got the money into their pockets.
But Lamont knows what's up. He's a politician. He can't
be sitting up here bragging about the fact I got
them the food stamps while Chris Murphy, his colleague, is

(01:53:20):
sitting around talking about we needed more pain and Lamont
is on the other hand, talking about all those people
in Washington need to get their act together. You could
have made a phone call, Homie. You could have called
You could have called Murphy, you could have called bluementhal
You could have said, hey, what are you guys doing.
You didn't pick up the phone. You didn't pick up

(01:53:43):
the phone. You moaned and then said, by the way,
I'm running for reelection. Hey, poor folks, here's your food stamps.
Get a body here. I'm not falling for that. That's
moronic anyway, he stole my thunder. That's okay, we'll get
into it later. Hollywood News coming up, Mark Christopher, he's

(01:54:06):
in the BPS driving center. Gain You Hold.

Speaker 5 (01:54:11):
The song just comes on every time Frank comes on
the radio. That's why.

Speaker 3 (01:54:15):
That's what I can hear.

Speaker 19 (01:54:16):
Automatically comes on. It's amazing.

Speaker 14 (01:54:20):
I don't hear anything, it just comes out.

Speaker 5 (01:54:23):
It's uncanny.

Speaker 1 (01:54:24):
It certainly does the hour that bags out Punch Punch.
It's Reese on the radio on w T I see
News Talk ten eighty.

Speaker 23 (01:54:39):
It's Hollywood News with your correspondent Erice on the radio.
All the glitch and all the glamor. It's Hollywood News.

Speaker 3 (01:54:56):
Okay, So this movie is supposed to be a history
lesson with action and explosion and comedy. I have no
idea why I like this movie, but I watched the
first one and then I watched the second one, and
I was absolutely caught up in it. And now I

(01:55:17):
hear that there's going to be a sequel. It is
Nicholas Cage in National Treasure.

Speaker 13 (01:55:25):
I know you know it.

Speaker 3 (01:55:26):
I know you knew it. So you've seen you've seen
these this movie.

Speaker 8 (01:55:31):
I love them.

Speaker 3 (01:55:32):
I love it.

Speaker 9 (01:55:33):
It's it's very similar to The Mummy and Yes and
Jones that it just has that type of feel to it.
And I just like the way they tricked the trick
the bad guys and.

Speaker 3 (01:55:46):
Get what they need to get the movie. It's just fun.
Nicholas Cage is really really good in these movies. I
don't know why it really made me. It sort of
endeared me to Nicholas Cage as an actor. And so
I hear he has signed on. But I understand he's
kind of been out of money for a while, so
he'll take on anything. So I'm glad that he's going

(01:56:08):
to do it. So he's coming back. The Margot Robbie thing.
Why was I mentioning her earlier because she has been
added on to another Bruckheierman film. By the way, Jerry Bruckheimer,
you know, you know Top Gun and all that stuff,
great films. Bruckheimer's master at that stuff. So there's another
movie that Bruckheimer did in its Pirates of the Caribbean.

(01:56:31):
You do your fan, yes, okay. Margot Robbie is supposed
to be in another one of those, like they're they're
coming up with another one. So I hear that she's
going to be in one of the new ones, or
at least the new one that's coming out. That's why
I said I'm not I like Kiera Knightley and them.

Speaker 8 (01:56:48):
Yeah, I enjured her and the first three first four.

Speaker 3 (01:56:52):
Yeah, so yeah, they're bringing in you know, because that's
the whole idea, like you always bring a new actors
in these Caribbean films. Yeah, and you know, you know,
sort of playing off Johnny Depp, who I don't care
what anybody says. I can't think of him as anybody
but Jack Sparrow. And he's played so many characters, but
he's yeah, he's just he is Jack Sparrow the way

(01:57:16):
that uh, what's his name, Robert Downey junr. Is iron man,
you know what I mean. It's like you couldn't take
him out of that role if you try, and if
he if you did, no one would see it. It
started with Edward scissor hands, right, Yeah, that's well yeah,
because of the Tim Burton thing. Yeah, but you know,
isn't it wild? Johnny Depp has been the man for

(01:57:39):
four decades yeah, like and I can almost count maybe five,
because he like he was the man in the eighties,
the nineties. God, he's been around a while. Johnny Depp
is just absolutely let's get another check. Yeah, he is
that guy. Let's get a check of weather in traffic.
It's gotta be the eighties from the twenty one Jump

(01:58:01):
Street days Mark Christopher Right, I mean from the eighties
to that. That would put him what at fifty forty years,
forty years in the business since twenty one Jump Street
to Edward Scissorhands, because I.

Speaker 5 (01:58:16):
Know that's like, hey, hey, hey, hey, I saw that movie.
It's my love of landscaping.

Speaker 19 (01:58:24):
And you know, he had like seven seven things going
at the same time, and he cut your hedges in
like seconds.

Speaker 14 (01:58:31):
Isn't it.

Speaker 3 (01:58:32):
You know what's so crazy. I watched that movie three times.
It took the fourth time to realize that Anthony Michael
Hall is the bad guy. Oh really, he's Brian from
Breakfast Club because he buffed up. He looked like, you know,
it looks like the guy was eating steroids from Breakfast
I was like, that's Anthony Michael Haller would have never recognized.

Speaker 5 (01:58:52):
Yeah, that was a great movie.

Speaker 16 (01:58:53):
It was a good.

Speaker 1 (01:58:54):
Moviet I see, I see.

Speaker 3 (01:59:00):
I'm sorry. I've got so much news that I'm working
on right now that I have to get. I got
to get an assistant. I don't know how I'm gonna
do it, but I gotta do it. There's like a
million things that I'm working on as stories that we
have to break that's going to go in so many directions.
So stand by for me in a second. Guys in

(01:59:22):
in the uh in on the call line, just let
me give me a minute to get this stuff out
of the way, and I promise I'll get right to
you during this break. So we are been pulling a
thread of a story that is very important, and I
think when we when we're done pulling the thread on this,

(01:59:45):
something huge is going to come from it. The part
that I'm and I promise you I'm not saying this
to to to put more sort of umph on it
than than it needs to be, but I'm actually a
little nervous about the direction that I'm going. Okay, so
I'm just I'm saying this out loud so that you
know that if something comes of this, you know I

(02:00:07):
said it here. Okay, This car wash situation sounds really,
really dirty, and there are some stories that don't seem
to add up when it comes to these stories. You
guys know about the Newington raid with ice, and you

(02:00:32):
know about the Hamden raid. But what I found interesting
was that there was a raid before any of those,
and that was the raid in New Britain. But the
raid in New Britain doesn't make sense because the raid

(02:00:53):
in New Britain was an optimal car wash, as the
Hamden and Newington locations. Now, think about what I'm saying
to you here. Newington and Hamden were car washes. But
the optimal car wash in New Britain is not like

(02:01:17):
the others. It is an optimal car wash, but it
is not like the others. The New Britain car wash
location is a self serve car wash. It isn't even

(02:01:37):
called optimal car wash. It's called both optimal car wash
and East Street car wash on East Street. I've looked
at the location. I have not gone there physically, but
that location was rated before any of the place and

(02:02:01):
there was no words about it. You know that in
Newington that story made news, got the attention of John Larson.
You know that ham didn't happen, still got the attention
of John Larson, and plenty of us got the attention
of Rosa Dolora. But New Britain nothing. And if you

(02:02:23):
know the site, if you go look for it, you
will see the site. You've seen car washes like this,
many of you have. You just go there, you pay
for it, and you spray down your car yourself. That's
exactly what this location is. That location was raided. I
don't know who this individual is. However, everything I'm finding

(02:02:46):
out it doesn't make sense. The names don't match, the
names don't add up, and there are eighteen locations. And
because I can't go to air with it now, I'm
just gonna say this. There are people talking, there are

(02:03:07):
people who are asking, and the stuff that we're finding out,
I'm almost nervous to pull anymore. Like, I'm not comfortable
with going any further until I know what I'm doing.
So I'm I'm asking a couple of friends, some folks

(02:03:28):
in law enforcement to somebody needs to get on this,
to at least quietly, privately or behind the scenes, investigate this,
because either ICE knows something or local government knows something.

(02:03:49):
But you gotta ask yourself, why is ICE going to
three optimal car wash locations all owned by the same individual.
I just again, why we looked up to find out
if there were any other locations that were being hit. Nothing,

(02:04:12):
We got no hits. The FEDS know about this. I'm
just wondering if anybody else does. That's all. Doesn't it
sound odd? Maybe I'm crazy? But I'm just I'm taking

(02:04:34):
this at face value. I did all of this research.
Everything I found out just optimos getting hit, just owned
by this individual. Nowhere else. I look, shit, are there
any other raids that are happening at car washes in
this state of Connecticut? Nothing? Nothing, it's worth asking, that's all.

(02:04:59):
Let's go to Chipping Inventry.

Speaker 14 (02:05:00):
How are you, sir, Professor Reese.

Speaker 16 (02:05:03):
It's your man, Chippy chip on w T I C
what's oh listen, I mean before I forget, I'm in
my car, which I live in because I do TikTok
videos every day. You can look me up at a
DJ chipper. That's I have no life. You and you
and Cumbling farms and coffee is my life.

Speaker 3 (02:05:24):
Well, I like Cumbling Farms. I got good coffee.

Speaker 16 (02:05:30):
Hey, I go to the one in Commentary. I'm there
for oh god, they call me the security garden.

Speaker 14 (02:05:36):
Sometimes I'm in the car.

Speaker 16 (02:05:38):
I'm in my car for six seven hours. I hear
that anyway, Yes, sir, what's the name of that pantry
in Hartford? Because I want to deliver a bag tomorrow
that I was going to deliver too locally at the
Commentary police apartment. But I can do two hands talking
about that.

Speaker 3 (02:05:54):
Hands of Hartford is on fifty Yes, it's on fifty
five Barside Avenue. I believe, Uh, you can go to
that location. We were there today, right hands on, Yeah,
hands on Hartford is on Bartholomew. You can't miss it.
It's right there, Uh, fifty five Bartholomew. It's a The

(02:06:15):
building is beautiful and inside it's just equally gorgeous.

Speaker 7 (02:06:20):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (02:06:20):
But yeah, you can definitely go down there. They they
would love some some donations if you have now.

Speaker 16 (02:06:26):
I'll be there tomorrow and then you have my word
because I mean real quickly, I I I know what
it's like at one point in my life for two times,
to be homeless, to have no food, to be on snap.

Speaker 3 (02:06:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 16 (02:06:37):
And I'm not saying I'm rich, I'm retired SSDI the boat,
I don't know. But the one thing I really really,
really really quickly. You had mentioned this maybe about an
hour ago to a caller, but in regards to uh,
you know, going AA and meetings and stuff like that.
Remember m hmm, Okay, I have no shame in my game.

(02:06:58):
As far as I came into AA, I didn't join that.
You don't wake up one day like I'm going to
join AA, I do. I haven't drinking.

Speaker 13 (02:07:09):
I got a drinking problem.

Speaker 16 (02:07:11):
Whatever. But in eighty four I was working at Travelers
Insurance Company and I was there for ten years. Wow,
long story short, you know, I picked up you know
what we say? Do we there?

Speaker 4 (02:07:21):
You know?

Speaker 16 (02:07:23):
And uh, they said, listen, Chip, if you want your job,
you're gonna go treatment for thirty days. And I went,
and I enjoyed that. I wasn't what we say, uh
in the in AA, A daily drinker. I wasn't. I wasn't.
I was a weekend I was a club free And
I joke with.

Speaker 4 (02:07:42):
You a lot.

Speaker 16 (02:07:43):
But I love R and B club Studio fifty four.
That's and that's what I did my most of my
party and during the week I could care less about partying.
My point is so forty years now, mostly mostly sober.
I've had a couple relapses, the worst one, as we

(02:08:03):
say that determined. I went back out in twenty eleven
and twenty thirteen. I'm not ashamed to say this on
the radio, but I made a choice. No one put
a gun to my head, and the liquor stores were
not talking to me. We need you to get drunk
and get another duh, come on, but it happened. It happened,

(02:08:25):
And I want to just say for you, I mean,
I'm glad that you shared what you did, what Lily,
you shared what literally did share. But because again I
stopped going. I stopped going a few years ago for
the main reason. No, I'm not as they say. No
one has ever said to me, are you cured? Chance
another we know there's no care. I can go off

(02:08:47):
all the slogans. I'm not going to do that. I don't.
I can't stand people in any any program, but in
this case, and I'm not bad mouthing AA say my
life my favorite slogan. It's universal. It's not about how
many years someone's been again sober, alcohol free. It's just

(02:09:09):
four today, November tenth. And I would say this at
every meeting because there were people that peed me off
that and that's one of the main reasons I stopped going.
And I'll never say I'll never not go again. But
I'm just as happy, if not happier than I am now,
you know, with my life. But in twenty thirteen, you know,
when I made another dumb decision. I'll share this with

(02:09:32):
your listeners. Because again, it happened, it can happen. I
don't care how how long, even sober, who you are,
but I had to go away for the first time
in my life. They locked me up and I deserved it.
They put me in Osbourne and it's not obvious, not funny,
but I think about it daily, and that's what could
happen with somebody who quote unquote has been you know what,

(02:09:56):
I've been sober for twenty nine years A big deal.

Speaker 3 (02:10:00):
Yeah, every day is a day at risk and that's
why you know. You need what you need and that's
what the rooms are for. But I know I appreciate
you sharing. I want to get one more in here.
I promised Lynn that I would get her in okay,
but I had, of course, absolutely whatever, anybody who ever
wants to hang out, you can always reach Reese on
the radio without a doubt. Thank you, sir, Thank you,

(02:10:22):
Chip buddy.

Speaker 13 (02:10:23):
You got it.

Speaker 3 (02:10:24):
Let me get to Lynn real quick. Sorry, Lin, I
didn't mean to keep your holding so long. How are you, ma'am?

Speaker 6 (02:10:28):
I'm doing okay. I love listening to you, Reef, and
I know you speak. Because Connecticut has no money, I
don't know where people keep getting that Connecticut has any service.
Fun eighty seven point two billion dollars in debt Google,
it's a total national debt for Connecticut. And if I

(02:10:52):
feel so bad about all these homeless people, like I said,
I grew up in Hartford. I've seen it all.

Speaker 16 (02:10:59):
I don't I never did.

Speaker 6 (02:11:01):
I don't do drugs, never did, because what I've seen
growing up in Hartford, you really have to be a
fool to do that.

Speaker 3 (02:11:08):
Yeah, cautionary tale.

Speaker 6 (02:11:11):
But then you got Lamont and his wife opening up
business in Tennessee. We need jobs here. Curiously, if our
jobs don't come back, rees, I'm telling you there's no way.

Speaker 3 (02:11:23):
This Isn't it crazy that the governor of the state
of Connecticut doesn't even have the wherewithal to recognize that
there is a litmus test as the governor when opening
up a business, that you would open it up all
the way in Tennessee, which is one of the best
destination places of the people who leave the state.

Speaker 6 (02:11:44):
There you go exactly, our neighbors went down there. I mean,
but we need the jobs. You need to emphasize if
you ever see Murphy Bloomenthal or any of them Democrats,
why aren't they bringing our jobs back.

Speaker 3 (02:12:01):
That's right.

Speaker 6 (02:12:02):
People just survive in this state. Otherwise nothing's going to change.

Speaker 3 (02:12:06):
Well, Lynn, listen, I'm gonna go to a break. But
when you when when we come back at the next
half hour, I've got another list that's going to make
you upset. Wait until you hear it. Okay, all right,
I love you guys. You'll be good. You got it. Well,
take a break, more news, more views. When we return,

(02:12:27):
I've got a list about retirement that no one wants
to report on a wait until you hear it. Stand by,
it's three, said radio. Let's go to Mark Christopher. He's
got another check of weather and trap back in the
BPS traffic center.

Speaker 1 (02:12:40):
Hey, Mark, the Odyssey app. Let's you jump back to
the moments you missed from wt I See News Talk Tennady.
Download the free Odyssey app search wt I See News
Talk Tennady and tap earlier today to get started.

Speaker 3 (02:12:53):
Wendy actually just said, damn, I missed the whole show. Well,
that's the reason, Wendy, we do this what we do.
What had happened was at every on every show, roughly
about five point thirty four. What had happened was that's

(02:13:15):
why you gotta go to the WTIC website or go
to uh the Odyssey app and downloaded so you can
check out the show. So what it happened was earlier today,
I talked about my impromptu meeting with Representative John Larson,
with Representative Rosa Delora, and also with the man who

(02:13:38):
called me a coward, Senator Matt Lesser. I bumped into
him who called me, and I have to applaud him. Hey,
do you know who I am? Yeah? I know who
you are?

Speaker 15 (02:13:48):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:13:48):
Do you know who I am?

Speaker 1 (02:13:49):
Hey?

Speaker 3 (02:13:49):
I know who you are? Yeah? Who am I? He goes, Hey,
you're the Reese guy. I wish to you know, I
wish people understood the things that I find funny and why.

(02:14:11):
I wish I could explain it, but it sounds still
weird when I explain it. But for you, like I know,
you barely know my name, and I know that you
probably had to remind yourself as soon as he saw
my face. I know that it was a part of him.
It just says, I know, that's that's the guy who
called I called the coward the other day. I know
I know that's him.

Speaker 2 (02:14:29):
What was his name?

Speaker 3 (02:14:30):
Again? I loved it, John Larson, you know I'm finding
a way it. I don't even know why it is.
But Larson, I'm kind of liking him. I can disagree
with him. I can disagree with him. I think he
is over the top, screaming and hollering like a lunatic.

(02:14:52):
But I've become quite fond of that guy. I gotta
be honest with you. I can be grow fond of
all of these guys except for the guys who were worms.
And you know who you are, Chris Murphy. I don't
think I'll ever get along with that guy ever ever
get along with him. I mean, I want to annoy
that guy so much, and he knows it. I'm just

(02:15:12):
gonna let everybody know this. This is gonna sound this
is gonna sound horrible. Chris Murphy has got me up
against it so much that the next time that guy
sees me, I want him to throw a punch. That's
the way I feel about him. I want to go
after that guy to the point that the next time
he sees me in a public place he wants to fight.

(02:15:36):
That's the way I feel about it. He's the ultimate
worm now. Dick Blumenthal, he was nice enough for the
fact that he could get on the phone and call
me and apologize. That takes guts. That's what a guy does.
But this guy Murphy is a worm, and he knows
he's a worm. The stuff that he lies about and
carries on about is worm like, and it's beneath He's

(02:15:58):
a human sludge, that's what he is. So the next
time that guy sees me, I want to annoy him
so much that when he sees me and goes that's
a I wanted to throw a I want Tom to
swing at me. That's what I want from him. That's
exactly what I want. It's a bum.

Speaker 2 (02:16:19):
Matt.

Speaker 14 (02:16:19):
You can come on.

Speaker 3 (02:16:20):
So anytime you want Matt lesser, you know it, buddy,
come on the program. Talk about the affordable Oh, I
apologize the Unaffordable Care Act. What's up, everybody? You know
who it is?

Speaker 2 (02:16:32):
Who is you know?

Speaker 3 (02:16:34):
It's on the radio. Frederick Douglas of the twenty first century.

Speaker 8 (02:16:38):
It's w T.

Speaker 1 (02:16:39):
I see news talk T.

Speaker 3 (02:16:42):
Hey actually chiping Covington. I know you're driving around, so
I hope that you're listening. I got this from Mark
Watsh Mark and West Hartford. He said, if you're gonna
be dropping off donations and hands on Hartford. They say
that it's always good for you to call ahead to
let them know if you know you're dropping off any donation.
So give them a holler before you show up, so

(02:17:05):
that you know they know that you're coming.

Speaker 15 (02:17:07):
So do that.

Speaker 3 (02:17:08):
Mark just said to make sure it's very important to
let Chip know to call ahead before you drop off
any donation. So I don't want you to be turned away,
So make sure you do that, Chip. Okay. Somebody in
the chat room said that Roland would be oh Richard.
Richard said, Roland making is making books on Murphy versus

(02:17:29):
Reese on the radio throwdown, and Roland said that we
should have a charity boxing match. Where would the proceeds go.
I guess I could give him to like Friendly Hands
food bank or something like that, or give him to
a food bank if Murphy wanted to. I think he'd
be scared to death. I'm like, I'll tall this. Murphy
is like six feet tall, right, it's got to be

(02:17:50):
at least six three. It's gotta be. He's got to be.
It's got to be at least sixty three if he
were ever. Okay, let me read this and then I'll
get to the phones to get out of here. So
there's a new survey from wallet hub. We do them
a lot here on the program. And wallet hub has
a list of the top fifty or the worst fifty. Well,

(02:18:15):
actually it's best twenty five and worst twenty five states
to retire. And before I get into where Connecticut is,
which ain't good, let me give you the top five
and then the worst five. Top five states to retire
in according to wallet hub, number one is Florida, Number

(02:18:38):
two is Minnesota, number three is Colorado, and number four
is Wyoming, number five south of Dakota. Now, all of
those places are relatively cold, with the exception of Florida,
Minnesota cold, Colorado gets cold, Wyoming cold, South Dakota cold. Pennsylvania,

(02:19:06):
which is number six, It could get cold, but Pennsylvania
is six Pennsylvania. That place is home to Philly. They're
number six on the places to retire. Now the worst
five starting from the worst down to forty five. Well

(02:19:27):
forty six actually Kentucky, the worst, Louisiana, Mississippi, Washington State,
and New Mexico. Where does Connecticut fall, Well, Connecticut falls
at twenty nine. That means below twenty five, That means

(02:19:50):
the lower half who beat Connecticut? Who beat Connecticut? Let
me give you a few. Nevada, Nebraska, Texas where I
just moved from, Michigan, Idaho, No, Utaho, Massachusetts, Montana, California,

(02:20:14):
South Carolina. Makes sense. Ohio, we beat Ohio is the worst?
Say Ohio is a better place to go than Connecticut.
That place houses Cleveland, the Mistake by the Lake, and
we couldn't beat it. It's also home to Cincinnati, an Akron.

(02:20:38):
It's Ohio. We couldn't beat it. We couldn't beat it, Utah, Vermont, Iowa. Yeah,
all in those places. Maine beat us. Alaska, Alaska beat Connecticut.
I'm not kidding. Alaska. How do you not beat Alaska.

(02:21:05):
It's like sea lions and eskimos. It's got it's got
twelve hours. No, it's it's actually got twenty four hours
of either daylight or twenty four hours of darkness. We
couldn't beat Alaska. Alaska.

Speaker 1 (02:21:25):
That is insanity.

Speaker 3 (02:21:28):
I'm stuck on Alaska. I've just done. That's it. I'm
just what am I supposed to say? Alaska's probably a
great place, but really, Connecticut, you couldn't beat Alaska. Really,
It's absolutely insane. Stevie vye. What's going on, sir?

Speaker 24 (02:21:49):
Oh, I hear Alaska's pretty nice.

Speaker 17 (02:21:51):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (02:21:52):
Oh, come on, it's nicer than here. Are you kidding me?

Speaker 24 (02:21:58):
A lot of people would go there, beat.

Speaker 3 (02:22:00):
By moose, beating by Sarah. Palin has a better home
than we do.

Speaker 24 (02:22:09):
Hey, got you, Hey, listen, I want to talk about
her two senators. Yes, start up with Murphy now. When
he was going against Linda McMahon, I always wish that
she would arrest him. You know, I don't think you
can throw a punch and down. He can throw a
baseball and probably make Obama look like Sandy colefi.

Speaker 3 (02:22:28):
Poor guy.

Speaker 24 (02:22:29):
He probably can troll a hissy fit dollar.

Speaker 3 (02:22:31):
Pretty sure that he can, without a doubt.

Speaker 14 (02:22:34):
Getting back to Bloomington.

Speaker 15 (02:22:36):
I'm glad.

Speaker 14 (02:22:37):
I'm glad he called it apologized, but I honestly, in
my heart thinks he did that for damage control.

Speaker 3 (02:22:43):
Yes, because you know he knows I'm going to dig
into the twenty million dollars as we did with the
five million dollars, you know, the food when we found
out that the proposal for the five million dollars only
had one hundred and fifty thousand dollars going to the
application of d QUOT and the other four million going

(02:23:03):
to colleges and universities and research. I mean, what how
much money was he planning on putting in the callfers
of those research organizations per year at the tune of
twenty million a year.

Speaker 15 (02:23:16):
Well, you got to keep in mind, though, you know,
one hundred million.

Speaker 14 (02:23:19):
Probably doesn't seem study. Senator, I forgot, Hey, you know,
what are you gonna do?

Speaker 3 (02:23:27):
I mean, I think you're right. I look that money,
all of it. Just look in finding out what the
five million dollars was going to. I wouldn't have gone
to where the money was until that trail came in
when I said, was there any other money ever asked
for or proposed for this project? And it led me

(02:23:48):
to the one hundred million dollars. So I actually found
out that thing by accident.

Speaker 24 (02:23:54):
Got you well, you know what they say, he reason
one hundred million here, one hundred million there after a
while ads up.

Speaker 3 (02:23:58):
Yeah, exactly somebody else's pocket and then definitely not somebody
who's uh got the best interest of the state in mind.

Speaker 14 (02:24:06):
Absolutely, Now, thank you for a good night, Thank you man.

Speaker 13 (02:24:10):
You too.

Speaker 3 (02:24:10):

Marines out there happy birthday today, two hundred and fifty years.

Speaker 22 (02:24:33):

I do want to dig downn too. Is it gonna
be double Betty? Are we looking at Double Betty's. We're
not taking the betties back and we gave them and
they're getting the betties?

Speaker 3 (02:24:45):
I'm sorry who double Betty's?

Speaker 22 (02:24:47):
The set step benefits Double Betty?

Speaker 3 (02:24:49):
Oh no, no, no, we're not gonna know. No, no,
that better not be the case because they.

Speaker 22 (02:24:54):
Said, right, he said he's not taking the money back,
the seventy two million, and then they're gonna give the
government on right, So we're gonna look at one hundred.
So everybody, you know, I don't know how many hot
cheetos can you get? How much great?

Speaker 13 (02:25:07):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (02:25:08):
So you're telling me that the debt. After he puts
in all the snap benefits and puts them in everywhere money,
all of our money, Yeah, all the states money.

Speaker 22 (02:25:17):
They found the seventy two million.

Speaker 3 (02:25:19):
Then the federal government. So you're saying, then the federal
government is going to go and put that money back
into or not put the money back into the state.
He's gonna they're gonna put the money back into the
EVT people.

Speaker 14 (02:25:30):
Oh, no way, we're not gonna take it back.

Speaker 22 (02:25:32):
Like so I said this, this is a scamp from
from what they did in COVID with unemployment. I worked
every day where I work in a chuncher. I'm gonna
send so but I worked every day. I didn't go
out for six hundred and six hundred.

Speaker 3 (02:25:43):
Oh he just bud votes it. That's all he came.

Speaker 15 (02:25:46):
He totally votes, right, that's the thing.

Speaker 22 (02:25:49):
Then he announced the third election, right, so let's look
at the real thing, like the money, right, Yeah, then
he wants five hundred million. What is that that's gonna be? Like,
that's like six hundred million dollars for liberal nonsense like
more buses and people don't go on it.

Speaker 10 (02:26:03):
We're a basketball team, yeah, which is exactly what And
again all of that money is just gonna be used
to just hey, let's just throw it around to the
constituents come electric elections.

Speaker 16 (02:26:15):
Yep.

Speaker 22 (02:26:16):
I think their sam is gonna be they're gonna pay
for people's healthcare when he when everything.

Speaker 3 (02:26:22):
Absolutely right and you got five million in.

Speaker 22 (02:26:24):
An account, now, I mean they just came up with
seventy two million. It's just laying there.

Speaker 3 (02:26:28):
Exactly like.

Speaker 22 (02:26:33):
You guys just kept money in a day on Saturday.

Speaker 13 (02:26:37):

Speaker 3 (02:26:54):
Thank you. We really appreciate that you have Fulton. Fulton
and his wife invited us out to dinner. We had
a We had a great dinner over the weekend. So hey, listen,
by the way, I gotta give you a holiday because
I know you just sent me some stuff.

Speaker 2 (02:27:06):
We need to go over that.

Speaker 3 (02:27:07):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ok, all right, thanks man, you got it.
I've got so many people working on the ground it's
insane and I got God bless everyone of you, from
Mark the Fulton to Sammy. I love all of you.
Thank you so so much for you guys helping me out.
Let's go to my last, but not least, Mike and
Hartford's on the line. How are you, sir, My, my my.

Speaker 13 (02:27:30):
We've got the state police up to their dirty tricks again.

Speaker 3 (02:27:33):
Hai, welcome back, sir.

Speaker 13 (02:27:36):
Now, now I have a trooper arrested, charge with a
selony for bringing in contrabands through a restricted area. Wow,
did you read about it?

Speaker 3 (02:27:47):
I didn't I miss this story?

Speaker 7 (02:27:48):
What what?

Speaker 3 (02:27:49):
What part? What police department?

Speaker 13 (02:27:51):
Was this with State Police? Now here's the thing. The
guy's got over eighteen years. Probably they're gonna put it,
put it to bed. They're gonna ship about to Colchester
and have him sit the end of desk for two
years and then he'll retire. Huh, that's that's what they do.

Speaker 3 (02:28:11):
We'll see, we'll pay attention to it. How you been, buddy,
haven't seen you in a while or heard from you
in a while.

Speaker 13 (02:28:16):
Well that's how I retired in July. But I'll tell
you what, Deesel in it in one of those movies
where he's on a dark planet. Because it's six o'clock,
I'm ready to go to bed. I'm telling you, they
got to stop this nonsense. I'm seven years old.

Speaker 3 (02:28:33):
So when it gets dark. When when it gets dark, Mike,
you're ready to go to bed as soon as the
sun goes down.

Speaker 13 (02:28:39):
I'm telling you, Man, I get twice as much sleep
as you do.

Speaker 3 (02:28:43):
I wish I could, to be honest with you, I
wish I could. My wife tells me she can't sleep.

Speaker 13 (02:28:48):
Looking to look into that story about that. That's one
of many they had to do a forensic analysis that
state how much, how much money, how many people actually work.

Speaker 3 (02:29:00):
I will check into it. Man, good to hear you again.

Speaker 2 (02:29:02):
Man, all right, buddy, thank you got it?

Speaker 3 (02:29:06):
Yeah, yeah, that's insane. So anyway, I got a lot
of stories that I'm working on. As you know, we're
still working on the Mimi Torres story. That story is
getting a little dark. We're finding out some information on that.
I spoke to the guy who was actually on that
story at WFSB today. He didn't seem to know a
lot of the stuff that I knew on that story.

Speaker 2 (02:29:29):
He was unaware of it.

Speaker 3 (02:29:30):
I think that they've kind of let that story go
unless other details come from that, which we told him
are coming out really really soon, So we're paying attention
to that. We're following up. That's what Fulton just sent
me earlier. So we got some really really interesting stuff
that we need to get into very soon about that,
so stand by for that. The week has started, you know,

(02:29:52):
we're getting everything on and poppin' for the rest of
the week. We got holiday store coming up very soon
next week. Yes, Wendy. In fact, I'm going to make

on and we'll see if we get that Newtown thing
