Speaker 1 (00:18):
Hello, thank you for joining us on the Nicki Medoro Show.
I'm going to take my glasses off. I was like
on this, I was like, why am I? Where are
my glasses still? I'm the blind one.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
You're hot teacher. I am hot teacher.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Let me take him off very slowly. She's Kim McAllister,
we are here. Grab your cocktails, your mocktails. I just
yelled to my husband Kim because I told him what
we did last time about having the bourbon tasting, and
he's like, oh, I have bourbon for you. So I
told my husband, I'm not going to get anything. Okay,
hold on, so it's going to be the voice. So
(00:54):
he's handing me the voice in the hand in the background. So, husband, James,
what is it going to be? Let me show the bottle,
Penelope barrel strength. Oh, let me show the bottle.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Fancy.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
This is what it looks like. I'm gonna bourbon right here.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
It looks nice.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Am I gonna like it? Or is it gonna be hot?
It's hot? He says, it's hot, and I'm gonna like
it now, of course I have You're gonna like it.
I will only be taking a step because again and
hit that subscribe button. We're doing cocktails of news on
The Nicki Medora Show, but we started off with a
drink because if there's anything that the news makes us do,
it makes it.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
It's drink Coach Valley iced tea over here.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Okay, you're supposed to be getting bourbon from your freaking husband,
remember that he just.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Took the kid to karate. But I'll text my fifteen
year old and make her bring me booze cause I'm
the one thing I've.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Ever done when I was a kid before I drink this.
When I was a kid, a very vivid memory that
I have is getting my dad his reestling wine two
ice cubes in his glass. You like me my glass
of wine. As a kid, I would never ask my
child to make me my cocktail.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
I mean, my daughter's fifteen. It's not like she doesn't see,
you know, booze, but I would not want to like
instill it in her to make me a cocktail.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
So anyway, I just asked mine. I have no problem
with that. I remember my best friend and I used
to walk to school from the time of like third
fourth grade upward, and her mom back then smoked and
she would ask us to stop by the corner store
and buy her a pack of cigarettes on the way home.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah, that's Those were the days when you could with
a note like my mom wants me to stick.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
These are the pre note days where they're just like, sure, whatever, kid,
how do we like the bourbon?
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Hmmm? I do like that, babe, that's pretty good. Oh
he's giving me a regular cocktail though, nice's service.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
With a smile over there.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
To go to way.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
I don't have a problem with Julia because she's kind
of an odd ball. Like I never would have asked
myself as a child to get me my parents to
drink when I was a teenager, because I probably would
have sampled. But she has is She doesn't want to
go to like teenage parties of ragers, you know, where
there's drinking a foot. She has no interest in any
(03:20):
of this. She'll take a sip of wine if we're
making it or having some type of event, but that's
pretty much it for her. She's kind of a she's
not a troublemaker. This one I looked out, trust me.
The second kid coming up, I'll meet my match.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
I love Cecelia, she says on holidays. It was my
job to make Jim business for us to have with breakfast.
I was ten.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Oh my god, that's funny, you know.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
There we go. So it's just different generations, I am
telling you. And just another quick generational story which is
gonna blow your mind. Kim McAllistair. I'm sitting at my
new job today and if you want something to make
give real old. So I'm sent around. We're having lunch.
I'm having lunch with my with my office ladies, and
all of a sudden, they're talking about this new Netflix
(04:07):
show on the Lacy Peterson case. Oh, and all of
these girls are like, I don't know anything about this case.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
And I'm like, you outside the courthouse, I was.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
There and I was like I was and they're like
I was ten, and I'm like, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
I'm like, oh, okay, these are these are mothers. I
mean at your school, I.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Mean there, they work with me. It's just there's and
I'm looking at one of the women that I work
with and we're looking at each other because we're the
same generation. We're the Beeper generation. They're the uh they
they had cell phones. And then there's some them that
don't even know what a payphone is, but yeah, it's uh, it's.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
So funny, funny.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Louise, thank you so much for the five dollars super
chat which you can find the dollar sign under the
live chat box. Thank you. Hell Yes, love the Live
Happy Hour Show. I'll be with you till six when
I go see an advanced screening of Alien Romulus. I
just watched the original Alien, okay with my thirteen year
old boy.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
How was it?
Speaker 1 (05:11):
He liked it? He liked it. I mean again, you know,
the iconic alien coming out of the stomach scene, Like
I was so looking forward to it. It was pretty good.
He liked it. So I'm really looking forward to seeing
this one. That's why we watched it. So, okay, Alien.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
I just read a movie tidbit. I forget where I
saw it. It was some like People magazine or something,
and it was just a movie factoid. Did you know
that during that first movie Aliens Alien, they unbe aliens plural?
Unbeknownst to the actors, Sigourney we were and whoever else
(05:49):
she was with, the director had them spray them when
the alien burst out of the Yeah, with real animal gut,
some blood. New Yeah, they didn't realize that it was
gonna be that they were gonna be showering.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Yeah, I think, but James was telling me something like
they he didn't tell them what was gonna happen so
that the reaction would be real or something like that. Disgusting,
but again, an iconic scene. So I do believe the
director got what they wanted from vac scene. So that's
pretty that's pretty freaking awesome. Okay, well, we have a
bunch of stuff to talk about. I love the Alien
(06:23):
movies when I was little. Yeah, you just have to
because it's so different. And again, listen to the woman
I just remember watching Alien. If they would have listened
to Sigourney Weaver at the very beginning, none of it
would have happened. The movie would have literally ended right there. That,
Lady Beatrice, thank you for the five dollar donation. Best
part of my week. What fun are we in for today? Well,
(06:44):
let's discuss. Let me tease you. Well, of course we're
going to talk about old trumpy Boy having his continued meltdown.
And again my big question is, this is what I
keep not comprehending is how long can this really go on?
Apparently it's gonna go on till election day. I know
the answer to my question, but he is absolutely losing it.
(07:07):
And what I'm enjoying and what's really interesting to seek
him is the vastly different way the Harris Walls campaign
is dealing with Trump versus how Biden was dealing with Trump.
And I really want to get your guys' take on
(07:28):
whether or not you like it, because it is like
starkly different now. As I teased in the thumbnail, there
was this really very offensive photo that Donald Trump had
shown and he shared it and on one side he's
basically saying, you know, Trump's America the left side with
(07:50):
the white picket fence in the American flag, and on
the right side it's largely people of color migrants that
would be Harris's America. Everyone is saying, this is a
blatantly racist picture. I think that the way that Donald
(08:12):
Trump talks about people of color, talks about migrants is
so openly racist. Now he's not even hiding it anymore
that it makes you wonder if this is also part
of his mental decline like it's and I always use
(08:34):
the anecdote the old grandpa or the uncle at the
dinner table. There is a point where he's just like, yes, Grandpa,
you've pat him on the head because there's no filter anymore.
Luisa's irony. Trump, a well documented racist, yep and misogynist,
is going to lose to an African American woman. I
love it. Yeah, absolutely, Wall said it too, right, and
(08:55):
he said, wait, I missed the picture. Can he post
it again?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
So here it is, Yeah, what he's saying, it is
in this picture words without being said, right, this is
where the white people live on the left. Is that
the America you want? Right? This is what happens when
you let the black people into the white house. Exactly,
there's chaos and bedlam and oh look at all the
people that don't look like you. Yeah, right, as if
as if black people, Asian people, Latino people don't live
(09:21):
in nice places, in houses that are well kept and
quiet neighborhoods and everything else. It's it's outrageous.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Yeah. So basically, actually under the white white pickt fence
pictuard said your neighborhood under Trump. Under the migrants picture,
it said your neighborhood under Kamala And it's just so stupid,
it's it's ridiculous. And again I will remind you not
a crisis, according to Donald Trump, not a crisis at all,
because what did he do? He blocked the bipartisan border bill.
(09:53):
But the best comeback, the best comeback that I saw,
and I want to play this for you to that
very racist post was this hold on. I want to
see if I can bring it up real quickly, and
the headline said, I apologize, my computer's really slow today.
Your capital under malga.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
January sixth attack on the US Capitol remains a dark
stain on our nation's history.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
The attack on our capital and the attempted coup to
overturn our democracy.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
We're white supremacists and extremist groups displayed any semitic and
racist symbols and recited conspiracy theories blaming Jews for the pandemic.
Capitol Hill policemen were attacked and died as a result
of that insurrectionist mom.
Speaker 4 (10:41):
We all walked over that broken collash, We all saw
this gray paint on the walls.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
We all stood huddled.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Together in shelter on the afternoon of January. So yeah,
I mean, your country under a Donald Trump presidency brought
you an insurrection, brought you the gallows on the step
to hang your Vice President, Now, do we need to
do something, you know, regarding immigration on our boards. Absolutely,
(11:13):
I think everybody agrees with that. Kamala Harris agreed with that.
Democrats and Republicans worked together on that. But Donald Trump
stopped it, and he said it out loud. He said,
I don't want this to pass because I don't want
to give Biden a win, plain and simple. So again,
if it was really a crisis, he wouldn't have stopped it.
(11:37):
So give me a break. I just I really really don't.
And then President Biden just to kind of keep it
on the whole, you know, racist tip. President Biden sat
down with CBS's Robert Costa and this is a clip
that was going around. Oh throw that back up. I
want to do thank yous really really quickly, Lady Beatrice
(11:57):
of the five dollars donation. I know why he's playing
the personal tack game. He's getting nervous, but has no
real argument against Kamala, thank you so much for the donation.
And again I think that it's the dog whistle appeal
that he's hoping that there's more racists than there are people,
you know, against him. This is what President Biden said
(12:17):
on Sea think of.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
This every other time when kukus Klan has been involved.
They worked, and they wore hoods and they're not identified.
Under his presidency, they came out woods with no hoods,
knowing they had an ally. That's how I read it.
They knew they had an ally in the White House,
and he stepped up for them.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
And he's absolutely right, you know what I mean when
you know, remember, stand down, stand by, or whatever the
hell he said, it's he And you can part and
parcel whatever you want about what Trump said and what
he meant, but it wasn't strong enough, and you know
he doesn't mean it. You know, it just doesn't make
(12:59):
sense to continue to support Donald Trump at all at
this point. And I really just I don't understand why
people do.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
What's interesting about what you just said that it makes
no sense to support Trump at this point is now
being spread to his former supporters, So it never made
sense for us to support him. But now we're seeing
Republicans for Trump, yeah, and there are thousands of them,
and we're seeing Christians, I mean Republicans for Harris rather
(13:32):
Republicans for Harris, and we're seeing thousands of them, and
we're seeing Christians for Harris, and we're seeing thousands of
them come out of the woodwork, so clearly it doesn't
make sense for Republicans either.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Exactly. Now going to what I was talking about at
the beginning, which is how the Harris campaign is dealing
with Donald Trump. Did you see this press release? And
again I do believe it's real. I mean it was
shared on Twitter, like I'm assuming it is. I don't
(14:02):
know if you can see it. I'm just gonna read
it to you. It says today, this is the headline
of the press release. Today, Donald Trump to ramble incoherently
and spread dangerous lies in public, but at a different home.
At four point thirty, Donald J. Trump, loser of the
twenty twenty election by seven million votes, will hold another
public meltdown in Bedminster, New Jersey. And then it goes
on to say, not so fresh off NABJ Florida and
(14:25):
Twitter glitches, Donald Trump intends to deliver another self obsessed
rant full of his own personal grievances, to distract from
the toxic Project twenty twenty five agenda on popular running mate,
and increasingly detachment from the reality of the voters who
will decide this election. These remarks will not be artificial intelligence,
but they certainly will lack intelligence. You know, it's it's
(14:49):
an interesting thing. You might have just been on Twitter
that that was there. But at the same time, I'm
just so curious on what do you guys think about
that tactic? You know, like, is that a smart tactic
for the Harris campaign to take or do you think
people will tire of it?
Speaker 2 (15:08):
I don't know. I think she's been do what she's
been doing. You know, focus on what the country would
look like under him in a way that's true, and
focus on, hope what she's for. She's that she supports
having your reproductive rights restored. You know that she supports
being a member of our allies, that that's the way
(15:31):
we protect America. Go focus on those things that are
working for you to lift us up. I hope that
she doesn't tear us down. However, sometimes the tearing down
can be done by others and it can be quite delicious.
Did you see the advertisement that Congressman Eric Swollwell put together.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
I think I saw. I was scrolling through, and I
don't think I saw. Show it to me.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
That's really quick. Let me just let me just play
this back for you.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Okay, oh I do, I do think I saw this.
This is really really funny. Was terminated by fury blood back.
I'll get in you know what, honey, I'm gonna drive
you today. Besides can convicted fellas he can drive school?
(16:21):
Does this? I love it. If you wouldn't trust him
with your kid, why would you trust him with your country?
I mean again, it's it's one of these things where
it does seem the Democratic Party and before I mean
Eric Swawall has always spoken harshly against Trump. Kevin Newsom
(16:42):
has always spoken, uh, you know, really harshly against Trump.
Walls has a pe Buddha judge does it in his
own very calm way. But it seems now that the
campaign of Harris and Walls is is supporting it, if
not leading the charge on it. And you know, it's
it's it's it's kind of anti when they go low,
(17:02):
we go high type of thing. It's like, no, we
have to play the game that we're in and show
them like, no, you're back as crazy. We're gonna point
it out every single time because what you're saying is
nonsense and it should be pointed out.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
But you see now people can see through it. So
now it's not ugly and oh, you're right. She laughs
a lot. Now it's oh you're you're wrong, and you're
not focusing on things that are important before we knew it.
I don't necessarily know if we need to go low.
Pointing out the truth is fine, but let him be
(17:41):
the liar, Let him be the mumbling old man in
the corner, you know, being derogatory and negative.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Making jokes about JD. Van's screwing a couch or calling
Donald Trump weird is going low.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
You know what. There's two schools of thought on this, Okay.
The first is he has been attacking, attacking person in
a way that's despicable, but it's been working for him,
and Democrats have taken the high road and have it
really sunk down to that level. And so we're not
really in the fight because we haven't been flinging the
mud right back. That's one school of thought. My school
(18:15):
of thought is the mud flinging like that is really done.
Let him fling the mud that it's professional and presidential
and speaks of who you are to elevate and to
let him be the crazy guy in the corner because
it looks different now than it did during the last election.
Now he just looks like a nutball.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Well, And I also think that with Biden Harris, when
they were running in twenty twenty, you know, we were
really coming out of COVID, we were really trying to unite.
There was a healing that we needed to do right,
and that's what Biden really tried to take on. And
I think that if Biden called Trump weird or try
to kind of campaign that way, it would just be
more of this scarring that we just didn't need. Now
(18:58):
we've healed, ready to fight, and Kamala Harris is younger
and ready to put up the Dukes. Kevin says damn
should keep doing what they're doing. I was listening to
the news today actually, and and there is this question
of is this just kind of the infatuation bounce but one?
And you know, I don't like Poles. You guys know,
I don't like Poles. I don't put any stocking bulls
(19:19):
after twenty sell. I hate poul because she's up in
polls and I'm not paying any attention to him, uh huh.
But they're saying is that she's up in the polls,
But it's this one or two percent of people that
didn't want to vote for either Biden or Trump, and
they're energized by Kamala Harris. If those people remember, it's like,
how do you not know who you're voting for? These
(19:39):
are the people were like, I don't want to vote
at all because I don't like either of them. Now
they're like, well, crap, I'll vote for Kamala Harris. Now
it's somebody that I could, you know, throw my weight behind.
So I think I'm not going to say it's a landslide.
I wanted to be a landslide. I think it should
be a freaking landslide. This guy is off his rocker.
He said the most asininecy he said today at that
(20:02):
weird old press conference that you guys were talking about
earlier that more than one hundred percent, which is not
mathematically possible, more than one hundred percent of jobs went
to migrants. All more than one hundred percent of noon jobs.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Are you a migrant because you've got a new job?
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Exactly? Apparently I'm a mind.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
So already we're not at one hundred percent.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
He's such an ass, like it doesn't make sense at all.
He also said something about Kamalias, somebody who's like, do
you think that you know? People are saying maybe you
should stop making fun of her, and kind of.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
I lost you. You frozen. I don't know if you're
frozen or I'm frozen, but I'm assuming that you're frozen.
So I'll just move forward. But well, we wait for
Nikki to come back. It's funny that you mentioned this,
John Slade, because I was just talking about this before
the show, just telling NICKI this. I have been looking
for this for two days. I saw it on the
(21:02):
Young Turks and try to go back and find it. Weird, Nikki,
you're having audio issues for some reason. I think you're
glitching a little bit. Anyhow, is trying to tell her
that he was asked at this fundraising press conference in
(21:22):
the Hamptons, how do you feel about being called weird?
And Trump says, well, they're not calling me weird, they're
calling jd Vance weird. Really, that is absolutely crazy because
there you are, there's two of you. Now. I was
just talking about the weird the weird comment at the
(21:43):
fundraiser and the Hamptons what John mentioned as well, and
it just goes to show that you've got somebody who
doesn't have your back. I mean, you just picked this
vice president. You're supposed to be a team that supports
each other. And that the first instance when someone says,
how do you feel about being called weird? He throws
(22:03):
his fresh vice presidential candidate under the bus and says,
except now it's advance. They're calling weird, not me. I'm
not the weird one. Always putting yourself first, and that
isn't indicative of a man that consistently puts him self
first and never America.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
First, always, always consistently.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
Then that's not the person I want you.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Guys, remember that iconic like they do a split screen
between Obama talking about the assassination of Osama bin Laden
and then Donald Trump talking about a boo I forget
his name. I'm gonna butcher it right now. But it's
a side by side of the speech, and like Trump
totally butchers it. He's like shot him down like a dog.
And then at the very end of he's like, I'm
(22:46):
not gonna get any credit for it. It's like, it's
not freaking about you, Like what are you talking about?
He's like, I don't you know, I won't get ano
credit for no one's gonna thank me though. He is
so self centered, he is so egotistical. I don't understand
why people like it gets in the way of everything
else because.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
People look at the They look at him like a fighter.
That's his whole thing. Like he's belligerent and he's a fighter.
Like after the assassination attempt, when he popped up with
his hand in the air like I'm okay, formarm like
they that's what they're looking at. They think that is strong.
That's not strong, and putting yourself and your ego first
(23:27):
will do nothing but damage our country exactly exact.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
He needs to stop. And you were talking earlier about
the Republicans against Trump and for Kamala Harris, listen, and
I've mentioned this before, if you lose, and they're even
saying they're even saying that Kamala might take Florida, which.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
I heard that. I know you, I know you hate
the polls, but no done by Fox News shows her
only one point below him forty nine to fifty percent
in a state where she is not suposed to get
that close.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
Right.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
No, his face is turning on him. People are seeing
through it. I'm tired of thank you.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
People still have.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
Oh you're frozen again, man, Well while you're frozen, first
of all, let me applaud Nick who says Kim is right,
and anytime I see that on the screen, speaking of
big egos, I'll appreciate that while Mark is rubbing off
on me and Luis with five dollars comes in saying
I agree that the other Nikki Hayley, when she said
(24:33):
first party to retire their eighty candidate is the one
who will win the election.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
And you can only hear before Oh there, I am. Okay.
I don't know what's wrong with my WiFi today, but
I don't know either, but I know I'm like literally
by my WiFi machine. Damn it work. Okay. So this
is what I wanted to show you was in Arizona,
because again this is mayor. I think it's Mesa, Arizona.
Listen to this guy.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Recognize my party.
Speaker 5 (25:02):
It has been.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
The Republican Party has been taken over by extremists that
are committed to forcing people in the center of the
political spectrum out of the party. So I have something
to say to those of us who are in the
political middle. You don't owe a damn thing to that
political party.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Exactly.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
In particular, you do not owe anything to a party
that is out of touch and has hell bent on
taking our country backward.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
And this guy's a Republican, he's from Arizona, and my
means you owe no.
Speaker 4 (25:59):
The to a candidate that is morally and ethically bankrupt.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Exactly exactly, So that's him. I mean, I just feel
like this is what we need more of. I love
Heather's comment too. The presidency is supposed to be a
position of service, not personal power and gain. Obviously that
concept is lost on Apricott pol Pot. I like that.
(26:26):
I like that a lot.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
I know I said personal attacks are not my jam,
but she comes up with some joozies.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
I'll tell you exactly. Thank you to Luise with a
five dollars donation. I agree with that other Nikki Haley
when she said first party to retire their eighty candidate
is the one who will win the election. There you go.
You know, I can't Standicky Haley, but I agree with
you absolutely that she was right there. Voting purple is
the way it should be. Kate Plan says, a little
(26:52):
from the left and a little from the right, regardless
of what color is on top hopefully we can get
back to that someday. I agree, I think that, but
it again, I wish we I want to go back
to politics being boring. I want to go back to
Kim and I drinking cocktails talking about Matthew mcconaugheughtie, you
know what I mean, and kids and yes, issues that
(27:13):
matter to our homes, but not being so divided because
Donald Trump is trying to take away individual freedoms.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
You know.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
I want to debate whether or not small things and
large things, but not things that like will ultimately divide us.
Where I hate my neighbor. There is a house that
I drive by on my way home from my new
job that has a Trump flag. Why would you have
a flag of that man? Why would you have a
flag with the name of a president in front of
(27:42):
your house. That is cult behavior, that is I love Obama.
I would never ever, ever have a flag of Obama's
name on my house. That's insane. That's insane.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Well, I mean, if you were you know, you thought
he was the second coming maybe, and that's what some
of these people think of Trump. They're like, oh, he
is Jesus coming back.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
It's whatever. I mean, I just feel like I want
to get back to talking policy and like really understanding
that were the United States of America and not really
and understanding what that meant, why this country was founded,
how this country was founded, and not villifying people as
others just because their skin is a little bit darker.
(28:28):
You know. It's just it's just really really sad, and
I just I wish we could get back to it. No.
I wouldn't even put a tailor swift flag in front
of my house, unfortunately, not unfortunately. I just you know,
an American flag, maybe.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
A pretty flag. You'd put a forty nine er flag
in front of your house?
Speaker 1 (28:44):
What is Niner time?
Speaker 2 (28:45):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (28:46):
But then I take it down, Well, if we have
a game play it, yes, you know, just speaking on that,
Can I just do a little caveat right here?
Speaker 2 (28:54):
Oh? Please?
Speaker 1 (28:55):
You know what the headline I just saw just no
MI nine are fans and anybody the follows football. Jim
Harbaugh is offering Colin Kaepernick a coaching job.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Really, huh? That's interesting.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Jim is obviously no longer an NFL coach Michigan, but
offering him and things that Colin Kaepernick would be a
great coach now Colin Kaepernick wants to play in the NFL.
Keep saying that over and over again.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
Sorry, isn't it too late?
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Rogers can still play football than Colin Kaepernick can. Let's see.
Rev Pie says, Do I watch local and world news
or the Nicki Midora Show. I'm going for both. Do
both and drink your cocktail or mocktail or water or whatever.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
Thank you, We're way more interesting, definitely.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
I mean, is you know what David Muir drinking cocktails
and giving you the news?
Speaker 6 (29:49):
I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Louis says, even worse the f Biden flags very classy?
Who flies that? Or the upside down American flag? I
thought these a holes thought the flag would sacred, you know.
Oh the Chargers always the new head coach of the Chargers. Oh,
damn it, I should keep up. Damn it. I think
I totally missed that headline. Yes, thank you, my friend,
(30:12):
thank you, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
Did you speaking of people who support candidates and the
way we feel about candidates, did you see this video
from I think it's from Rebel HQ. It popped up
on my YouTube feed, but it's this report that has
this woman embedded, and she talks about why she's drawn
(30:39):
to Minnesota Governor Tim Walls. Okay, And while I may
not feel the same about her about as her, she
talks about this and I thought her perspective was kind
of interesting because there's a lot of people who maybe
have family members that have gone off the deep end
and have that Trump flag in front of their house.
Speaker 5 (31:00):
Is a get I get thousands and thousands and thousands
of comments about how being a liberal white woman is
the worst thing that someone can be, how I'm a disgusting,
ugly Karen, And every now and then I'll get a
comment from someone that said, I bet your dad doesn't
even love you. And even though I know my dad
loves me and his only way that he can, I
know that my dad feels the exact same way as
all those other weird men in my comments. And seeing
(31:21):
Tim Wall, seeing that he was an educated conservative that
saw the party getting weird and changed his mind shifted
his mindset, and now he's this altruistic character who does
the slingshot with his daughter at the fair. He's just
chill and normal and kind and sensible. He has empathy.
He represents all of those qualities that were stripped away
(31:44):
from my normal father by this cult, and it makes
me sad to see him because I think what kind
of person would in my dad have been if he
didn't fall victim to this timare.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
Yeah, the emotional Yeah yeah. So many people can relate
to that.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
So had him as like you know, now that they've
lost their whatever father whomever, they're looking at him as like, ah,
a normal dad, the dad that I want, the dad
I can relate to or whatever. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (32:12):
Imagine how many people like actually lost that connection with
their parent and then that parent passed away and there
was you know, and it's hard, you know, I mean,
I know there's a lot of things that make relationships
between parents and their children kind of pray, right. I mean,
it could be a number of things, but when it's politics,
and when it's something like this, and when you know,
(32:33):
when you think that you know your parent and you
know how they raised you about certain on certain issues,
and then there's someone like Donald Trump, who you thought
represented the complete opposite of all the ways that that
parent raised you and the way and their belief system,
and it encompasses like literally a person of all the
(32:54):
ways that's opposite, and they follow that person. It really
hurts and I I totally understand how that woman feels,
and I think that it's awesome that she got her
dad back, you know what I mean. So you know,
that's really really cool, and yeah, I totally feel for her.
That's a really cool video.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
She has. She says a little bit more right. And
here's the other part, which I think is interesting to see,
just because you get a really interesting feel for Tim
Walls and how he interacts with his kids.
Speaker 7 (33:25):
Especially with millennial women.
Speaker 5 (33:28):
After getting to know Tim Walls for the last few weeks,
I have realized something and it's very profound. He represents
the dad that a lot of liberal women lost. A
lot of us had moderate, conservative, educated, sensible fathers that
we lost to Rush Limbaugh, that we lost to Fox News,
that we lost to Donald Trump.
Speaker 7 (33:50):
The fatherly vibes and Midwestern approachability are part of most
Walls highlight videos. This was his interaction with school children
after signing a bill to provide free meals. Last year,
Walls and his daughter promoted the Minnesota states there.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
I think we're gonna go do the sling shot, which
I don't know what it is, and they're keeping it
from me.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
But then we're gonna go get some food.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
Corn dog I'm vegetarian.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
In Minnesota, Turkey, and we will go do some of
those things and report back.
Speaker 7 (34:22):
Enthusiasm then intensified on the right itself.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
I want to do that.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
Yeah, So now you can see why she thinks, oh,
he's a you know, the America's Dad thing, because she
is right. Unfortunately, you know, a lot of people do
have these relationships that have tanked because people are so
(34:57):
diametrically opposed. Because there is this thing where you see
a Trump flag in your like it's like a you know,
a physical response to that.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
Exactly, I don't know. Well, and again it's just it's
it's a it's a representation of all of the things
that in my opinion, and again this is we're obviously
sharing our opinions, and I think a lot of people
that watch this show, you know, agree, and then we
have a lot of people that disagree, and you guys
voice it's fine, and it's totally fine. But I feel
(35:30):
exactly to me, it's just Donald Trump and their supporters
at the very least are hypocritical, you know what I mean. Like,
if you say you believe in freedom, then you shouldn't
be taking away people's personal rights. You know, it's all
of these things. I just saw an image of a
college and forgive me, I forget what college it is
that was throwing away a college, all of these LGBTQ
(35:51):
books throwing them away, like what year is this? Right?
It's just absolutely nuts. Is finally home with the cocktail? Yay, cheers,
watching Nikky and Kim on my sixty ch TV screen
and typing on my phone. Love it, love it, love it. Yeah,
Cheryl's shopping with my AirPod and join the podcast. Thank
you guys for being here. Make sure you click that
(36:13):
thumbs up button and make sure you've subscribed. We appreciate
everybody being here all of the time and programming. Note,
we're gonna be a little bit early next week. School's
back in session, the kiddos are back. We have back
to school night next week, but we don't want to
we don't want to shorten the show, so it'll start
a little bit earlier on four point thirty, so it'll
go and a little bit before six, so still the
(36:33):
same length, starting a little early just next week. If
you come in at five, we'll still be here, but
it's gonna start a little bit earlier tomorrow next Thursday,
so just let me all know. I do love the
Turkey comment, though. It reminds me of that scene from
My Big Fact Greek Wedding where she's like the guys like,
I don't even mean. She's like, okay, we'll have lamb.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
I guessunny, it's so funny. I just had to switch
you back to the other side. I feel like it's
almost like side of the bed.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
How did you do that?
Speaker 2 (37:02):
You belong over there and I belong over here. I
just grab grab, grabbed you, and I flicked you back
across the screen. Did not know you can do it
over and over again. Okay, And you didn't need to
ban him. He just wanted attention. He was he was rude.
Speaker 1 (37:19):
Was he being rude? I love the mom. I love
Kim being a mom. It's he wanted attention. He was
like a child, you know what I mean. So he's like,
look at me, look at me, look at me. And
I'm like, whatever, Okay, it's not an airport.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
I give you a couple. You know you cannot like us,
that's fine, but when you go on.
Speaker 1 (37:34):
It's exactly no. But the fact that he stayed is like,
I know, all right, but.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
This is a great group. He doesn't add anything to
the conversation. Cyonar a sucker and don't come back. I
don't let the good Nikki door hit you where the
good Lord.
Speaker 1 (37:49):
Split you exactly? Can we talk about the funny things
that also happened this last week with Trump, the whole
Celine Dion.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
Thing when he see the Titanic song my heart will
go on.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
I'm sorry, but how on the nose was it? And
yet they're totally tone deaf to it? And do you
think they understood? Like why would they choose that? I mean,
and Sleep you don't even send out or her people
send out a thing like seriously that song. So I'm
gonna play it. I'm just gonna play like a second
(38:23):
of it because I know, damn well, YouTube is gonna
make me cut it out. So if you're watching this
on replay and you're like, what song, Yeah, it's gonna come,
but this is it?
Speaker 2 (38:30):
Like, seriously, you can see the ship going down in
your mind.
Speaker 1 (38:39):
There is only one movie. But when you hear this
song and it is the freaking Titanic going down, that
is it? That is it? And why would you play it, like,
why would you play it?
Speaker 2 (38:52):
First of all, what a ridiculous decision. Second of all,
why don't you do what Kamala Harris did get permission for?
Speaker 1 (39:00):
First?
Speaker 2 (39:00):
Ask the artist? Beyonce said, absolutely, use my song Freedom
at your rallies. I would welcome it. So you call
up Celendon and you say, listen, we'd love to play
your Titanic song at our rallies. And she would have
probably have said, really, why that one? You know what
people are gonna think right the ship is going down?
Speaker 1 (39:21):
Then did you see this?
Speaker 2 (39:22):
And ps, no, don't use any of my music?
Speaker 3 (39:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (39:25):
Do you see Laura Trump define Lauren Trump saying he says,
we don't give a damn about a letter from non
American Celendon all sing the song myself. No one can
stop this Titanic.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
What what I mean? Are they not the best and brightest?
Do we not have, as they say, the sharpest knives
and the drawer I don't. Yeah, you're right, Laura, no
one can stop this Titanic. Full on, I am going
straight to the bottom of the sea. Sister.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
I just, I mean, I just it's so funny.
Speaker 2 (39:59):
And then I mean, is that when you're you kind
of look at someone with their your eyes, like give
them a minute to correct themselves.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
Yeah, it just doesn't even do it. So, yeah, the
Titanic and then the helicopter story. I don't understand the
helicopter story. At first, I was very very confused. I
was like, so he was on the helicopter and he
just was confused about who was on it. And then
it became like, why would you choose Willy Brown. I
don't understand why.
Speaker 2 (40:26):
He decided because Willy Brown is a black guy.
Speaker 1 (40:29):
And he was thrown around with Kamala Harris, so there
has to be a connection there.
Speaker 5 (40:33):
Well.
Speaker 2 (40:34):
And the lawmaker from the South Bank, forget his last name,
Nate something, he is also a.
Speaker 1 (40:39):
Black man, an older black Mannate Holden.
Speaker 2 (40:42):
Nate Holden, thank you. And so perhaps Trump has an
issue when it comes to recognizing which older blackfellow he
almost made in that right. But I mean, I adore
Willy Brown's The story is crazy.
Speaker 1 (40:56):
I have the video of him talking with film about
it and me a little low. So I'm gonna pump pump,
bumple your volume if you're listening, because they are on
the street, so it might be a little low. It's
so freaking funny. So here Willy Brown and filth here.
Speaker 2 (41:09):
I gotta ask you.
Speaker 7 (41:10):
Were you ever in a helicopter with Donald Trump that
nearly crashed?
Speaker 2 (41:14):
No, I've never been a helicopter with Donald Trump.
Speaker 7 (41:16):
What was your reaction when you heard Donald Trump say
that you and he were in a helicopter that went down?
Speaker 5 (41:21):
I started laughing.
Speaker 1 (41:23):
I said, that's de'spiration to get on the front page
of something and not because of him.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
Okay, me, have.
Speaker 4 (41:34):
You ever talked to Donald Trump about Kamala Harris?
Speaker 2 (41:37):
I've not with Donald Trump about any woman lung Kamala Harris.
Speaker 1 (41:42):
So yeah, I mean, I think that he was just
trying to do a dig at Kamala Harris by bringing
Willy Brown. And so here are the facts apparently about
the helicopter landing. Willy Brown was not in the helicopter
it was the helicopter landing was made in New Jersey
in nineteen ninety. It was not the imagined landing that
was made in Jersey in nineteen ninety. Took place in
Atlantic City. The passengers on board were Nate Holden, Robert Trump,
(42:05):
Donald Trump, Harvey Friedman, and Barbara Rez. Willy Brown was
never in the helicopter. Nate Holden says Willy Brown was
not in the helicopter. Barbara Rez also doesn't remember Willy
Brown being in the helicopter. Trump claims that Brown told
him terrible things about Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris was twenty
four years old in nineteen ninety, had not started dating
Willy Brown yet, and was just admitted to the California
(42:27):
bar So again, this would be a major headline. I mean,
we were making fun of Donald Trump about it, but
like Donald Trump gets away with so much b s
because we are so desensitized, We are so desensitized to
the fact that this guy makes crap up. It's crazy.
Speaker 2 (42:48):
This is where you I think there's an argument to
be made about cognitive decline, Yes, because I don't. I
don't think that he he was trying to get the
wrong guy. I think he not only told this story recently,
but he's always wrote. He wrote about it in a book,
and he wrote Willy Brown as well. And I don't
(43:10):
think he was trying to, you know, take a swipe
at Kamala Harris. I legitimately think he can't remember what
happened and with whom I think this is a highlight
and a hallmark of maybe something going on mentally that
would make more sense to me than maybe flubbing a
word at a press conference. This, I think is a
(43:31):
that's a cognitive memory issue.
Speaker 1 (43:33):
He always thought probably that, so you're thinking that in
his memory, he always thought it was Willy Brown, and
then he just put it out there, and now people
are like, no, Grandpa.
Speaker 2 (43:43):
And it's not the first time he said it. He
wrote it in some I guess some book that was published.
So this is really what he thinks.
Speaker 1 (43:52):
Yeah, he's just he's nuts. He's nuts.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
They don't look the same. We all know what Willy Brown.
Speaker 1 (43:57):
Looks like, right, Yeah, I don't know what looks like.
Speaker 2 (44:02):
That's Nate holden Old.
Speaker 1 (44:03):
I mean, I don't know what he looked back in
ninety ninety. I don't know what they looked like back
in ninety ninety.
Speaker 2 (44:09):
I mean, Willie Brown was the speaker California's legislature, right,
and he was mayor of San Francisco. This guy's from
the whole other end of the state.
Speaker 1 (44:20):
He does not care. He probably didn't give the guy
two looks, you know what I mean, Like just a
guy in the helicopter with him and they almost crashed
like whatever. But my favorite video presidential campaign, or my.
Speaker 2 (44:34):
Favorite video of this is from cron four when they
had him at a local event, Willy Brown, and they
asked him about the helicopter and it was the same
laugh you heard on the video you played with Filmettier.
But he went on. He must have laughed for like
a minute and a half. I mean, he was It
was a belly laugh. It was fantastic.
Speaker 1 (44:52):
Oh I love it. Yeah, And I love Willy Brown.
I think he's so funny. I mean, and he doesn't
give two craps, you know what I mean, He does
not care. So and in the fact that Kamala Harris,
I mean, and we all hope and pray is going
to be the first female president of the United States.
You know, I'm sure Willie Brown is tickled freaking pink.
(45:14):
But you know it's he is going to, you know,
say everything positive about Kamala Harris. But the one thing
that I do not want people to say is that
he helped her, you know what I mean, Like that
is this narrative that I am so effing tired of.
And you know what someone also said to me, and
(45:35):
it's something that I want people to really remember. Anybody
that says she slept her way to the top is
basically saying that men require women to sleep with them
in order to get promotions. Why don't we say it
that way? Okay, So stop with that nonsense unless you
(45:55):
believe in a system in which men require women to
have sex with them to give them promotions. She did
not sleep her way to the top, So stop. Okay,
let's talk about something different. We're done talking about Trump.
Let's have a little more fun. Okay. Actually, the Olympics
ended and on August twenty eighth. I want to promote
this because I think that it's really important and I
(46:18):
know I've been watching it and I think and I
might be wrong, so people google it. I hope that
Peacock is doing it, because Peacock was behind all the
Olympic coverage. The Paralympics are starting, and the woman that
won the long jump, that got the the gold medal
and the long jump and then ran into the stands
in her husband's arms, and forgive me, I don't have
(46:38):
the names in front of me. So great he is
competing in the Paralympics. So it's like this great thing
and I just totally want to see him race and
everything like that. So the Paralympics are starting and then
there was the big handoff. Remember the handoff. Did you
see Tom Cruise doing his whole like Tom Cruise.
Speaker 2 (46:56):
Saying from the ceiling. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (46:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (46:58):
So it was like, is the mission if you choose
to accept it? And he like falls off and he,
you know, does this like pumping action. So he lands
and hands it off and so the Paris hands it
off to La Billie Eilish, doctor Dre snoop dog. Do
(47:19):
you think California is ready or La is ready to
host the Olympics. They're saying it's going to be a
car free Olympics. That means s show in my opinion,
La La. Do you know that La County now, which
is gigantic by the way, I mean, has more people
than many states. La County last.
Speaker 2 (47:42):
Time they had the Olympics in Los Angeles. But the
problem is all of the venues are spread out and
everyone's staying in different areas.
Speaker 1 (47:51):
Of Really, I didn't realize that.
Speaker 2 (47:53):
They're not all next door to each other. Someone told
me the other day that the the the Olympic baseball
softball venues or in some other skate because they don't
have whatever venue, proper venue to do it in Los Angeles.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (48:09):
I mean, it's going to be a difficult thing to watch, so,
like they had tickets and everything, you're gonna have to
travel all over the place to watch it. It's not
the central location, right, that's stupid.
Speaker 2 (48:19):
I mean, I mean that's the way Los Angeles is, right,
everything's spread out.
Speaker 1 (48:23):
So but if you're gonna be like so, there's not
gonna be an Olympic village, is what I'm saying, Like.
Speaker 2 (48:27):
I'm sure, yeah, well no, but I want.
Speaker 1 (48:31):
To go to an area and be able to watch
like many different things at one time. So if I
can want to catch you know, the gymnastics over here
and the what swimming over here, I don't want to
have to travel in well, I guess it's going to
be called how's it going to be car free? If
I have to travel all these different places? Kim McAllister,
thank you?
Speaker 2 (48:49):
Which is my whole point, Like that's there using AI
to redo a bunch of buildings, Okay, so they won't
have the cost of constructing new venues for all of this.
The Los Angeles Coliseum is one of them, and there
are a host of other buildings that they're using AI
to help design changes to these buildings to make them
(49:10):
appropriate for the Olympics. But I don't think that you
can make it unless you have a really good shuttle
system in place for all of these people. They're not
going to be car free.
Speaker 1 (49:23):
Absolutely, and driving in LA sucks, you know what I mean, Like,
just have to look at the slog in LA and
I know they've tried to clean it up, but it's
just driving in LA. It's absolutely awful. So good luck.
They have several years to get it together. But it
was really cool to see the handoff to Karen Bass
and everything like that. That was really really cool. So
(49:44):
we'll see what happens. Is going to be a star
studded events, you know that much, So hopefully they can
they can pull it off without a hitch. We'll see.
Speaker 2 (49:53):
They say the Lakers are sharing their home stadium with
the gymnasts, that they'll be held at the arena in
down town Los Angeles. Uh huh, which is right now,
Crypto dot Com Arena right right. That will be the
home to the basketball you know games, that will be
home to the gymnastics that type of thing, and then
(50:15):
other venues and other surrounding communities will have other events,
so again, all spread out. I don't think we're gonna
be very good at no car Zone.
Speaker 1 (50:24):
Sandy says, I walked all the time when I live
in Hollywood, but I was right in the heart of Hollywood.
I could walk to everything I would love. That's one
thing I've never like done is live in an area
in which I could walk everywhere, you know, Like I
mean right now where I live. I mean, technically my
work isn't too far. My boss actually lives in my
(50:45):
neighborhood and she takes her bike and rides cause we're
only like two miles away. So technically I could. I
could ride my bike. I could ride my bike to work.
It would take me a while, you know what I mean.
It took me a while, but I could technically do it,
and I ride my bike likes to downtown Campbell or
something like that. So it's more walkable than where I
used to live. But not like San Francisco, where I
(51:09):
live in one of the apartments and I walk down.
It's not worth it to get in a car and
drive in San Francisco. I've never done that. I want
to be really really cool to do and live in
a place like that where you just go tore stuff
like that.
Speaker 2 (51:23):
San Francisco has Muni, they have Muni trains. It becomes
more convenient. But even when I lived in San Francisco,
I lived out near Alamo Square Park. You and you
know where kgo was located, all the way down by
the waterfront and near the ferry building. That's a long walk.
Speaker 1 (51:41):
Yeah, so it's you know.
Speaker 2 (51:43):
You're you're on the bus, you're on the train. There
are people that do it that walk that far.
Speaker 1 (51:47):
Well, it was almost like electric bikes and scooters though,
I mean it's better. It's way if you have a
pedal assist bike especially, it's no problem. It is no problem.
So I mean the technology has gotten better to do it,
so you could possibly see it.
Speaker 2 (52:02):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (52:02):
The other funny story coming out of the Olympics that
we have not talked about, that we have to talk
about is of course the breakdancer, the Australian breakdancer Reagan,
doctor Reagan because she has a PhD and cultural dance early. Now,
I always get dinged if I play you the official
Olympic videos. So I'm going to play you the funny
(52:23):
videos that people have put sounds to. I'm sure many
of you have already seen these videos, So here we go.
Speaker 2 (52:33):
But you know what, this ridiculous performance that she she
put on has led to breaking being eliminated from the
next competition.
Speaker 1 (52:42):
It was never going to be in. It was, by
the way, it was never going to be.
Speaker 2 (52:45):
Think it was her fault. No, if it had all
gone swimmingly and led to a lot of people loving
it and people rushing to the venue to see it,
then maybe it would have continued. But I think so
many people kind of made fun of it.
Speaker 1 (53:00):
What it is gonna be in twenty So it's gonna
be in twenty thirty two. So it's gonna be in
twenty thirty two. They've alread announced it's going to be
in twenty thirty two. I don't think it was gonna
be in twenty twenty eight. They already said it was
not gonna be in twenty twenty eight. This is the
thing when I was listening to the radio the day before,
or the day of breakdancing hitting the Olympics. The thing
(53:22):
that tipped me off that this is gonna be a
problem from the get go is there was no point system. Okay,
if you pay attention to the scoring, it was like
musicality and they didn't got to choose their own music. Okay,
so it's very interpretive. It was very up to the judges,
which I find completely unfair. Right, so they all had
(53:42):
to dance, breakdance to the same music, all this sort
of thing, and so yeah, and that's it was not
gonna be in twenty twenty eight no matter what.
Speaker 2 (53:50):
Yeah, Eric's yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (53:51):
So I just feel like it it has problems. There
should be set moves that are already determined, right, Like
there needs to be a guideline because again, the other
big hooplah is what happened with Jordan Chiles, right, the
whole bronze medal having to return it back and forth.
(54:14):
That's a whole mess because the difficulty scores and the
time on their you know, challenging it. That's still up
in the air. They wanted to return it, they're challenging that.
So you understand how all of this can just go
up and smoke. So but I'm telling you now this
this woman who is for Australia. Here she is again,
(54:36):
I just have to play more videos. Somebody but like
doing the kangaroo this, this is the move that I love. Now,
apparently somebody found video. I'm gonna show you this one.
Somebody found video of the finals in Australia of people
(54:59):
she had a beat, and they're like, it's exactly what
you thought would be. We're just as bad for you.
Speaker 6 (55:12):
They're just riding around them on the ground, touching their
butt like.
Speaker 1 (55:24):
I could do that, you know, like when you tell
your kid.
Speaker 2 (55:27):
You could be an Olympic medalist and what did Eric say,
twenty twenty whatever, twenty thirty something. I love it.
Speaker 1 (55:33):
It is so funny. Now people are bagging on her
because they're like, you made break dancing, you made full
a fun of it, and like she's like, I'm I
knew I wasn't gonna be able to beat these people,
so I was just gonna express myself, you know, and
all those sorts of things. So whatever. You know, I
do think that for people that are serious about breakdancing,
it sucks. But come on, I mean, let's it really
(55:58):
did draw a lot of eyes. Telling you, everyone's gonna
watch break dancing in twenty thirty two. I'm gonna be
looking for the next Reagan. So I'm sorry. I think
it's awesome. I enjoyed it. I rewatched it, you know
what I mean. And you know what's really funny is
this when you when you're what, when you're competing in
break dancing, you have to apparently act like the other
(56:23):
person's like challenging you. And it's so funny because like
it's it's so funny like you have to be like
nodding at him like oh uh huh. And I just
feel like you're stuck in like that breaking movie, you know,
and it just cracks me up. It just really cracks
me up. Sounds like a Lane can dance.
Speaker 2 (56:48):
Well. And the head of the Australian Olympic contingent said,
she is the nicest person that she's kind of like
the sweetest person. She's looked up to, one of the older,
you know women on the team, the you know, the
full team, and she's looked up to by all the
other athletes and they loved having her along for the
(57:09):
ride and it was they were happy that she made
it and that they could bring her with. So I
don't know that's good.
Speaker 1 (57:15):
Well, somebody or actually some people that were not faking it,
and especially this guy that was not faking. It was
the US men's basketball team who obviously won the gold,
and I am telling you totally awesome. But I will
if you haven't heard this song, and I am telling
(57:38):
you it is the best song ever that this guy made.
And I don't know if I'm going to get ding.
So if you're watching this on replay, I really hope
that I don't get dan. I'm gonna have to refresh
it because it already starts because it's on Instagram. This
is the song that this guy made up because for
the US men's basketball team, here we go, hold On,
let me refresh it, hold On, here we go, because
(58:01):
it's not something hold On, here we go.
Speaker 2 (58:11):
Double from Lebron, thirty six from Steph Curry, and a
pro stand next week as a beat over the other country.
Has there real doubt? I love this way godless usm met.
Speaker 1 (58:33):
I love that song. I've listened to that song like
five times. It's so great. But yeah, so I'm congratulations.
It was so fun to watch them. I brilliantly watched
it on replays, but it was just it's so fun
to see players that don't play together, you know what
I mean, Like Steph Curry and Lebron and all these
(58:55):
people that are obviously rivals at home play together. It
was a great thing.
Speaker 2 (59:02):
You see the problem that Ayisha Curry and Steph Curry's
mom Sonya had when they came out of the stadium
and she has her infant with her. I think he's
like four months old, her baby boy, and they were
trying to get right across the street to their car,
but the President of France was coming through, so the
police had to stop all the traffic, okay, and they said,
(59:23):
you know, I've got an infant. Can't just let us
through this type of thing. And somehow and I don't.
It's the reporting is really sketchy. I don't know who
or why. But during this kind of confrontation with police,
and I don't know if there were other people around,
the allegation is that her infant was hid in the head.
Oh no, I know and so and he seems fine
(59:47):
and everything is okay. But then you had one of
the teammates, I want to say, Kevin Durant. Was he
on the I think it was him. Yeah, he came
out at the same time and was talking to the
police and standing up for her, saying is there nothing
you can do since the baby got hit in the
head type of thing to get them, and the police
(01:00:08):
were like once they understood, the police were like, you know, no,
it's the president in France coming through. There's nothing we
can do. So it's kind of a tense moment there
with the police in France.
Speaker 1 (01:00:18):
Oh well, yeah, that's a tough one, you know what
I mean, Like, that's really tough. Oh well, the baby's okay.
Speaker 2 (01:00:25):
Though, right, I think so, I haven't heard anything to
the contrary looking to see. Oh was Draymond Green rather,
I'm sorry, not Kevin Durant. It was Draymond Green who
appears he asks the authorities, So even after him hitting
the baby in the head, there's still nothing y'all can
do to get them out of here. The video doesn't
show the baby being assaulted in any way, and it's unclear.
(01:00:45):
The police say they didn't touch the child. It's unclear
whether someone else did or what happened.
Speaker 1 (01:00:50):
There's so many people there. Yeah, exactly, I don't think
anybody likely did it on purpose. But if the baby
was hurt, that sucks. Well that's a kind of crappy
way to end it too. So all right, Well, we
have one more story. I have one more story okay
before we end the show. And this has nothing to
do with sports and to do with politics, but it
(01:01:12):
does have something to do with the fact that school
is starting. In another reminder, next Thursday, we are starting
the show a half hour earlier because it's back to
school night and I don't want to shorten the show.
I want to keep it kind of you know, enough
time for everybody. So we're gonna start at four thirty
next Thursday, just next Thursday for back to school Night.
So there's this mom Kimmick Allister, and I want would
(01:01:34):
you do this my friend? Okay, So a mom is
dropping her daughter off in college. Okay, it's moving day,
and I want to set it up fairly. Okay, it's
moving day and the daughter is going a little bit
earlier because there's cheerleading practice. Now there's other people on
campus because it's sports and things like that. Sure, so
(01:01:56):
she's there, but a roommate is not there. Okay. So
her mother decides and her daughter says, please do spend
the night. Now, would you if your daughter asked you
to spend the night.
Speaker 2 (01:02:16):
I'm gonna say I think unless it's against the rules,
which I think a lot of times they don't allow
parents to spend the night right. I'm gonna say yes
that I would unless it was against the rules, because
in this case, you're muted, the roommate isn't here, there's
no one else in the room. It's day one, so
(01:02:38):
there's not friends coming in and out. No one's gonna
think you're weird if your parents stays the night right,
I think perhaps I would unless it was expressly forbidden.
Speaker 1 (01:02:48):
So here's my thinking. Okay, so when I went to college,
my parents brought me all They're like bye bye bye.
But I also remember like people came into my dorm
room and they were asked me like do you want
to go get food? And all these sorts of things,
Like I feel like there was this opportunity where yes,
her mom there was. It wasn't a full campus, but
(01:03:10):
it was this moment where that uncomfortable moment right where
you're by yourself, it's out of your element, and you
should experience that, Like, I don't know, there's a growth
that happens when it's not easy. Does that make sense?
And so a lot of people are saying, like, so
(01:03:31):
the mom got vilified well, some people were saying, like
the daughter asked, you know, she asked, and it's okay
if she asked. These were the other reactions. No, don't
do this. You did your job. It's time for the
little chick to find her wings. This is setting them
up for failure. One person said, it's gross and weird.
Have some boundaries. Say goodbye to your kid and go
(01:03:52):
cry in the car like everyone else. Let them live
their lives. That's what you brought them to do. One
person says, I've worked in every level of college and
university admissions and advising. I can tell you this is
a terrible idea.
Speaker 2 (01:04:07):
Well, I don't think it's allowed. My sister is they
just went to orientation week at UCLA and the kids
got to stay in the dorms for that week. They
have to go back in September because school, like normal people,
school doesn't start until after Labor Day there. Ours all
just started this week, right but exactly. But so she went,
(01:04:27):
and my niece Ashlynd stayed in the dorms and her
roommate didn't come, so she was there. I think she
was there, so low. Yeah, But my sister, her husband,
they were all there and they stayed in a different hotel.
They have a hotel on the campus for families to
stay in. Oh, and I think that's where they stayed. Yeah,
And so I mean I guess in this case the
(01:04:51):
mom and the daughter could have stayed in a nearby hotel,
had like one last hurrah, right or whatever. It is
a little strange. I mean, you do want to let
them be that. I'll tell you right now. I got
yelled at last night. I got handed two pieces of paper.
And when you hand me a piece of paper that
the teacher has put a little note that says please
sign here, what it means to me is that you
(01:05:13):
want me to read thoroughly what you have sent and
then signed that. I have read it. Yes, So I
read it and there were some things on there that
stood out, so I highlighted them. So I remember to
tell Julia, hey, look at this policy the teacher has
or remember to turn it. And she was mortified. She goes,
I cannot believe you put highlighter on that. I can't
(01:05:34):
believe you don't.
Speaker 1 (01:05:35):
Yeah, figure it out.
Speaker 2 (01:05:36):
And I was like, so I do have this tendency
maybe to go a little overboard. I'm just saying, so
I do need to be reined in, and for this
reason I will accept that perhaps I would have made
the wrong decision in this case.
Speaker 1 (01:05:50):
Oh that is so funny. Yeah, I mean, if you're
going to turn it back in, I mean, because now what,
maybe the teacher thinks that you've highlighted it and she
needs to watch jewel about those things.
Speaker 2 (01:06:03):
I'd like for you to initial each of the things
that I've highlighted, and she goes, I will absolutely not.
Speaker 1 (01:06:09):
