can't think of the other two names.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
So this is a liberal group that wants to So
there was a far left, far left group.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
According to the criminal complaint, they're so nice, Yeah they are.
You don't agree with us, blow you up.

had been making they've been purchasing and making bombs. They
traveled to the Mohave Desert on Friday to build and
test explosive devices.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
So wait a minute, So we're joking here because it's
such a goofy name, stupid does whatever, But are they
you're talking about significant explosions that we're gonna hill people.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
That's exactly what they were looking to do. FBI. The
FBI agents arrested them before they could finish putting together
a working bomb.
Speaker 7 (06:03):

The suspects face charges of conspiracy and possession of unregistive
destructive devices. Court documents say they plan they called the
operation we gotta come up with I don't know any
that's Operation Midnight Sun. Operation Midnight Sun. We're joking and
probably shouldn't be, because it involved placing backpacks with homemade
bombs and five locations tied to US companies to go
(06:28):
off at midnight on New Year's Eve.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
So they were hoping to blow these places up and
nobody works there at the time because it's midnight on
New Year's Eve. Hopefully everybody's off I don't know, cleaning
the place or whatever. It be a tech company, but
this is this is not they're supposed to be liberals.
They are supposed to be we have everybody, but they're
(06:51):
trying to blow people up. So how many five of them?
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Five of them?
Speaker 1 (06:54):
And then how many people all together are they all
going to go to They're all going to go to prison?
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Just the store because because how do you do that?
Because I'm fifty seven and you want to why because
five minutes later I could say, well, the FBI foiled
a play you know what I mean?
Speaker 6 (07:12):
I don't know what I do the same thing. I
can't keep all my tabs open after I've gone through it.

avoided major damage to other ligaments in his left knee
(07:43):

like it's an Achilles tendon. I mean, it's just an ac.
Speaker 1 (07:49):

the playoffs for the first time, so that.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Well not with that attitude that I can't to fix.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Is not in unlike I know what you believe me?
The script? Hang on, that's there's no rescript.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
There's no the NFL script.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Oh wait, I've uh pause on this, John, Do you
have the sound that I that from wit It said
the title of it is Dwight and Whitlock agreed, I
do have that.
Speaker 7 (08:16):
Okay, turn the National Football League into a soap opera
and Shader Sanders is the biggest star, and they use
other soap opera stars like Steven A. Smith to talk about.
But it's all part of a deception campaign to mask
the fact that the product is actually ruled and run
and controlled by the officials who all have ear pieces
(08:38):
in and who all take direction from whoever's magically talking
to them in their ear piece.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
See.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
That's that's crazy that that no one's talking to the Revsie,
I have right here the script for the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Yeah, but I want to do spoilers, so I'm not
gonna do that.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
I so you got the script for for Kansas City losing.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
And and he got script for every single playoff game.
There is right here in front of who wins. He's
not gonna tell you.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
That information. Whitlocke is a pretty legitimate source. And he's
here on this podcast saying, yeah, they're they're given. I
don't think he is being sarcastic.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Here Mahomes, Patrick Mahomes is heading to Dallas for a
second opinion. I want they're gonna say, Okay, you got
a torn a c L and you're ugly to get it.
Second opinion, Yeah, we got it.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
It was a stupid joke in nineteen eighty.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
No, it was not a Cowboys team. Physician Daniel Cooper
is expected h to meet with him later this week.
Reid says he expects a fairly quick recovery as long
as the surgery goes well.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
He had to go to Dallas, So apparently in Kansas
City they don't have an Ellison Bodenhowden.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
No, he's coming Louisville for Ellison clearly. The thirty year
old quarterback wrote on social media that he will be
back stronger than that ever. Backup quarterback Gardner Minshee Minshew Minshoe.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
He's got the cool, he's got the fu Man shoe mustache.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Here's what you're saying. You're saying, well, did you back
with the man shoe. Yep, uh, you're saying, you know
it's he's just a backup quarterback. What can he do?
What can he do? Well, let me tell you the
story of when the great Phil Simms the New York
Giants went down mid midway. And who did they have
sitting on the bench.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
He had an awesome mustache too.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Nol Hargrave was sitting on the bench. And no, I
don't think it was his name, Carl, What was Jesse?
Dixon was sitting on the bench, and he did everything
he could to sit the bench. He ran back punt returns,
you name it, just to keep that second string spot.
You know what he did? What was his name again?
Bill Cox? Bill Cox went out there and he won
(10:50):
that freaking Super Bowl. And you know why I did it?
And you know how he did it because he had
a can do attitude.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Now out like Mendoza. Yeah, uh okay. So Kansas City, John,
you can jump in here on this because you little
bit more sports ball than than Grinch over there. Kansas
City's been the story for the NFL for the last
four or five years. Am I lying about that or not? No?
Speaker 6 (11:18):
Last year they could have they could have won their
third straight Super Bowl until they got blown out by
the Eagles.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Right, But they've been the story for four or five years. Yeah,
and it was before Taylor Swift got involved. That just
added to it, That just added to the insanity. But
they have been and they started to look like the
Patriots where they were like, oh, sure they're terrible through
six games, and next thing you know, they win the
Super Bowl. And I bet you they fix a lot
of stuff next year, and I think Kelsey will end
(11:45):
up retiring.
Speaker 6 (11:46):
You think next year will be his last year or
he'll I think he'll ann. I think he'll one a half.
He'll have his farewell tour. You're not You can't be
associated with somebody like Taylor Swift and not have a
farewell tour to kind of go along with it.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Dwight, What happened at de Bruce Springsteen when he got
happy and had kids? Oh the music did not do well,
did not do well, So listen you think there's a joke.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
I interviewed Tom Morello, the guitar player from Rage Against
the Machine. He came out with a solo project. This
was like eight or so. I interviewed him. I said, Hey,
how come no Rage Against the Machine music, and on
the air he goes, you really want to know why?
Oh yeah, why? He said, we all got rich. There
was nothing to be pissed off about anything, correct, So
(12:36):
he was serious.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
He's got he's got his own hundred million dollar contract
for his podcast. His brother and him are doing really
great with that. He's about to marry and I think
he's legitimately in love with this woman, a billionaire. You
see what script says on that in love. They're getting
married this year. He's not. He doesn't have the same fire.
(12:59):
He's not the same player. He was terrible in the
super Bowl last year and he was serviceable this year.
It's time for him to retire.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
Here's what's going on. He was Travis Kelsey. Now he's
mister Taylor Swift. It's uh, he's been damasculated.
Speaker 6 (13:15):
Maybe he'll pull in Austin Montgomery and change his last
name to Swift when they get married.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
I'm going to Austin's wedding on Saturday. I'm going to
try not to think about it the entire time. I
can't just like he's taking her name.
Speaker 2 (13:27):

got an issue with my eye.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
I did tell him that this week I got two
funerals on Saturday, a funeral from a most beloved aunt
and your funeral the wedding.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
He's kind of treated it like I did tell Austin though,
I said, look, when you get married on your honeymoon night,
you kids are gonna be so confused about what to do.
She's going to ask you to do things that are unnatural.
So I made them a DVD in a structural DVD

You still don't know what to do on her honeymoon?
You know, well me because these kids.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
I don't know. I don't I don't think i've met her.

like after they get married, he's going to be the
guy with the keys in his mouth, carrying the luggage
and going, yes he's got keys, not going ma'am, do
you know how many?
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Do you know how many mall benches he's going to
be sitting on while she tries on outfitsts. I mean,

Speaker 1 (15:24):
But let's be honest. I mean he beggars can't be choosers.
How many options does he have?

new number one album Tho Thenumber one hits.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
If you ingest, If you ingest something that's poisonous and
you need to make yourself sick. I highly reckom in
this album. It induces vomiting quite quickly.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
All right, Ram Paul will join us here in a
couple of minutes. He was down near beaver Dan where
Cornbread Hemp. That's where celebrated.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
That's where is getting married.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
No it's not. No, you're an idiot. And he came
in and said, no, it's in Jeffersonville.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
You try.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
You got me nervous. I'm not driving an hour and
twenty four.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Then when anybody invites me to a wedding, first question, Wow,
I got to check the dat. And by the way,
where's it located.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Yeah, they have a state of the art facility and
HEMP tourism experience that started on Monday. Cornbread Hemp. I
told I said this at the beginning. It was just
surreal because I know the history of Cornbread slash Mafia
and how they've come full circle because the federal government
had made them enemy number one and it was ridiculous
(19:53):
and it was we all knew it was stupid, but
they made marijuana like the worst thing you can do.
And now now it's being it's obviously embraced.
Speaker 8 (20:03):
Well.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Joe Keith Bickett from the Cornbread Mafia is a dear
friend of mine and the show by the way as well,
and he's done the show several times. And what sucked
is they used they would get busted for weed, but
at the time it wasn't the felony that it is now.
And then overnight they get busted and now they're looking
(20:25):
at twenty twenty plus years a federal time.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
I know, it's crazy, and now it's legal in thirty
three states. It's it's crazy, still illegal.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Hollywood needs to make a production now of the Cornbread
Mafia here in Kentucky. There's no question, because they told
us that the growing conditions between I can't recall the
name starts with R where they grew it. It's very
similar to Columbia, just Kentucky and generally humidity.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Correct.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Correct, So I was at Arkansas, Kentucky.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
I was, you know, gonna ask him what, you know,
ran where? What if there was an appetite in Washington
for you know, getting rid of the federal part of that,
so you can use cash in these stores and you know,
maybe opening up a little bit more. But since they
just passed this this federal action that is going to
even get rid of the hemp and the CBD oil
(21:20):
stuff kind of stuff.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
I mean, I just don't understand that because I use
CBD and I use Delta eight.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
That's one of the ten medications you take to sleep
two hours allegedly.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Oh no, I know you're right, But seriously, why would
you take away Delta eight and CBD for that matter.
I guess we'll find that.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Here's the thing. What just in the short time it's
been uh okay and legal, it's now a billion dollar
industry in Kentucky. It is. It's really taken off and
these are employing I bet you ran Paul knows the number,
but it employing a lot of So we'll talk to
(22:02):
him about that. And the biggest story obviously that led
the news yesterday afternoon after we got.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Out there, Kentucky. Thank you, Kerry mcnatis, Raywick, Kentucky, Okay.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Sixteen hundred employees at the Blue Oval plant in Etown
are out of a job, every single employee that they
had there. Obviously, when it first they first said we're
going to do this, we all there wasn't any There
wasn't anybody that said this is going to be a mistake.
The appetite for these evs aren't there yet. Maybe it
(22:35):
is in twenty years, but today it's not. And all
you gonna do is ask a car salesman. They'll tell
you no, I'll sell ten ten twenty gas cars before
I sell one of the EV's. It doesn't add up.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Yeah, they don't want them on the lot.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
So you sold this to Etown. Etown people got ready
for it. I was a little excited about it because
I was like, well, at least the high school athletics
will get better in Eastown because everyone's going to move there.
Business has moved there and now and I saw a
news story where they were talking about that they even
were building the wrong batteries.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Really, yeah, and so what's Look, it always sucks to
lose your job, but meant right at Christmas too.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
No, I'm and Ford should take care of those sixteen
hundred employees with a special package on the way out,
just to say, hey, thank you for going in on
this dream and moving down here with your families. That's
sixteen hundred families that are losing their jobs before Christmas.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Orn't mind everybody, Oh, Center, Rand, Paul, Hey sener to Paul,
how are you, sir?
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Good morning guys. You're not causing any trouble yet today, well.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
Oh several times already. It's oh, well, the show's almost over, sir.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
So it hasn't exactly been our year of staying out
of the principals. The Center Ran, Paul, and I want
you back next week for your airing of grievances. So
I'm working on that right now.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Oh that'll be fun.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
But there's several things we want to talk to you.
But we're gonna talk about himp here in just a second.
But I want to talk about you introducing a health
marketplace and savings account act for all. Yeah, because listen,
if you ask me, it's horrible the situation.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
When you're not talking about the kid one the Trump
baby born in four years.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
I want to talk to Okay Ran pause on his
because if you ask me, healthcare is horrible. Uh. You
never know what procedure is going to cost, and there's
no there's no pricing, and next thing you know, your
hit and you're out of X amount of dollars. Talk
about this savings account health plan that you have going.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
So when President Obama introduced Obamacare, the goal was he
said to reduce premiums by twenty five hundred dollars, and
I think that was annually. It turns out the opposite happened.
Insurance premiums have skyrocketed. So every year there's the substance
get bigger and bigger, but the price gets more and more.
Now you have Obamacare plans with you know, five six,
(24:55):
seven thousand dollars deductibles, and they're still costing you know,
quite a bit of money, twenty twenty five thousand dollars,
thirty thousand dollars ridiculous. So what we need to do
is figure out how to get lower prices. Now, some
of the Republicans want to do what I call Obamacare light.
Instead of giving them money to directly the insurance company,
you give it to the HSA, and then your HSA
gets it to the insurance company. To me, that's just
(25:16):
sort of a pit stop and isn't going to bring
things down. What I'd like to do is, if you're
an individual, if you're an accountant with three employees, or
you're a landscaping company with ten employees, and you're just
not very big, but you want to get insurance, let
these people join a collective or a co op like
Sam's Club, Costco Amazon, and then when you have like
(25:37):
a million people, or maybe even five million people, one
person calls up United Healthcare and says, I've got five
million people, what kind of deal can I get?
Speaker 8 (25:47):
And then you buy them group insurance.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
If you do this, it equalizes a playing.
Speaker 8 (25:51):
Field right now.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
If you're an accountant and you have three employees and
you call up a big health insurance company, they say
take it or leave it because you have no I
don't care if you or not. But if you had
the leverage, if there were five million of you, my
guess is that whoever your negotiator is would sit down
with the CEO of the company, you'd have the best
insurance in the land, the best.
Speaker 8 (26:10):
Price in the land.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Because you'd be bigger than any corporation in America and
you would have that leverage of size. All it takes
is legalized, doesn't cost anything.
Speaker 8 (26:19):
All we have to do is change the law to let
people join these plans.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
So I've been pushing this for years, and the first
Trump administration, I met with President Trump in the Oval
Office and I got him to signed an executive order.
The problem with executive orders is the courts, you know,
sue They pushed back, and unless you really change the law,
it's hard to get people to really form an organization
that takes money and time to organize. So I've talked
(26:43):
with him again. We exchanged texts.
Speaker 8 (26:45):
A couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
He says he still supports my plan, and so I'm
pushing to try to get it included. Unfortunately, last week
we voted, you know, on the Senate alternatives, and they
had one alternative with the Democrat plan just to keep
giving more people more money that goes to insurance company.
Speaker 8 (27:02):
And then the Republican plan was to give you a
little bit less money and give it into your HSA
or health savings account.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
And I'm just not for the government buying insurance for
people who make one hundred thousand dollars a year or
two hundred.
Speaker 8 (27:14):
The current Obamacare plan. This is important.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
People don't realize this. They think poor people are getting this.
Poor people get Medicaid. The people getting this are fairly
well off. Someone making one hundred thousand dollars a year
gets thirteen thousand dollars in stuff subsidies. Well, the last
I looked, one hundred thousand dollars a year is not bad.
People making two hundred thousand dollars a year still get
about fifteen to eighteen hundred dollars. Well, that's kind of
(27:37):
insane to give some of two hundred thousand dollars any
kind of government money.
Speaker 8 (27:40):
Right, So I wouldn't be given these subsidies at all.
I'm just for letting them expire. But I'm not without
concerns for prices.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
I would do everything it takes to bring prices down.
And then then one other part of my plan is this,
I would let everybody have a health savings account. Right now,
only ten percent of people have insurance products that let
them legally buy health savings accounts.
Speaker 8 (28:01):
Really everybody have one? Yeah, I would let everybody have one.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
Think of all the people have braces in this country. Yeah,
I'll bet you eighty percent of the kids in our
country have braces. Three of my kids had braces. We
paid for it with pre tax dollars that we put in.
Speaker 8 (28:14):
Al savings account.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
But everybody should have that advantage, not just to a
few people.
Speaker 8 (28:18):
Everybody should have it.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
I would also let you pay your premiums out of
your health savings account. I would let you buy diet
programs out of or apply to a diet program out
of it. I'll let you get a gym membership out
of that sort of health and wellness. I would include
and expand what you can spend it on, and expand
how much money you can put in a hel savings account.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
I think it's beautiful and I hope it passes Senator
Paul because and here's a staggering number Americas collectively right now, oh,
over two hundred billion dollars in medical debt.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Tawney, well, to that point, Senator I saw I don't
know if you saw this video. It was online, this
eighty eight year old veteran that worked for GM for
forty years. He was working at a grocery store in
this this person video and said, hey, do you just
like working? And he's started to cry and said no,
GM went belly up with his pension, and he probably
(29:13):
he thought his entire life rand. He was thinking, I
worked for GM, They're never I'm going to have my pension.
And then his wife gets sick and he has to
sell the house to pay for her bills and she's
she dies. It's just sad to look at this situation
to where.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
I saw I saw, I saw that story. Yeah, why
do we not have anybody saying that we need subsidies
for TVs or for cell phones or for anything else,
and including cell phones which are fairly essential in modern life.
Speaker 8 (29:40):
Because of competition.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
So I do have sympathies to this guy, and no
one the company that ripped him off with a pension
probably should be liable if they've made promises and they
went back.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
On the promise.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Right.
Speaker 8 (29:51):
But the other thing is is that we can bring
insurance down.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
The two items in our country that have massive inflation
and no control prices or education and healthcare.
Speaker 8 (30:02):
What do they have in common? The government subsidizes both.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
So when you subsidize something, you artificially increase the demand
and the marketplace response says, oh, this is great. The
government's give them free money.
Speaker 8 (30:11):
We'll just raise the rates.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
And so every year they raise the rates, and so
there's enormous amounts of inflation in healthcare. But what we
really need is a system where everybody is health savings account.
When you're young and healthy, you try not to use
your health care, you try to save more. As you
save more, you get a high deductible and realize this
This is why insurance comings make the money.
Speaker 8 (30:33):
They know these statistics.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Ninety eight percent of people between twenty and forty don't
get a major health problem ninety eight percent.
Speaker 8 (30:40):
So all that.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
Money that you're pre paying your health care, you should
be saving and getting a hire and hire deductible. Ninety
percent of the people by the time that the thirty
five should be able to be in a ten thousand
dollars deductible because they've saved a little bit each year,
save one thousand dollars a year, put it into these accounts,
and all of a sudden, when you have a ten
doll into alre deductible and you have no mandates on
(31:02):
the insurance, you decide what you want. It could be
that it's more like term life insurance. You remember how
term like when you were twenty five, you get term
life insurance. You get a half a million for five
hundred bucks. We need is insurance that's more like that,
that covers catastrophes but not everyday cost. And we let
people save in their health savitory.
Speaker 8 (31:20):
Yes, in the marketplace would work.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
And that touches everything. It's why people aren't having as
many kids as they used to. I mean when I
was in grade school, we had I have three siblings,
and it's like we were a small family. Now people
don't because it's it costs too much to do that.
And old people should not lose their homes for medical bills.
I mean that that was part of that guy's story,
and I said, that's that's we live in America. Well,
(31:43):
if you're retiring and you can't go back to work,
you shouldn't lose your home. All right, Let's get to
something a little bit better, which is cornbread. HEMP celebrated
a state of the art production facility, a HEMP Tourism experience. Uh,
and you were there, tell us tell about that experience
and where this is all going, and then talk about
legislation that you might be able to save some of this.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
You know, Ever, since tobacco should have died, farmers lost
that cash crop. It pays better than corn days better
than soybeans. Well, help is a possible, not a complete replacement,
but can replace some of that. So farmers grow this,
make good money off of it. And the marketplace is
two adults and two adults who either want to enjoy
it as a beverage or want to take something for
(32:27):
sleep anxiety at night. And what I say to these prohibitionists,
these people like Mitch McConnell that want to tell you
what to do. Who was he to tell some person
that can't sleep at night they couldn't take a little
bit of hemp versus taking you know, narcotics, all these pharmaceuticals.
Speaker 8 (32:45):
So big pharma.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
You can spend one hundred dollars a pill, or you
can have a gummy of hemps THC that's a lot
less expensive. And whose business is it of Mitch McConnell
will tell you what you can do for sleep a minute.
Speaker 1 (32:59):
By the way, By the way, the average age of
the people that have gotten their card is over sixty. Yeah,
it's over sixty years old. It's not good. So all
of the fear mongers and oh, there's twenty somethings's just
gonna go out there to get stone. Like, no, the
average as is sixty years old or older. It's kind
of crazy.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
It's aus the irony.
Speaker 8 (33:18):
Yeah, here's the irony, Kentucky.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
You set up a regulatory apparatus for product, you have
to be twenty one. Well, you know, if the federal
law comes in and supersedes its, McConnell wins, and the
federal law supersedes there's no age limit. So he goes
around saying, oh, yeah, I want to keep this from
the kids. His law pre ms Kentucky law, which does
keep He's telling people the opposite of the truth. He's
(33:44):
not well informed, but he's going to cripple a billion
dollar industry, a.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
Billion it's center.
Speaker 4 (33:51):
Paul.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
Let me tell you something. Okay, if I take saying
ambition to get to sleep, and then I'm getting ready
fifty eight is not what it used to be, I
might forget and take another ambim. There's chances of overdoses
what I'm saying. Yeah, here's what you won't overdose on
CBD or THC. Can't do it, You'll urinate it out.
(34:12):
It makes zero sense to me.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
All right, one minute to go. We'll give you the
floor if there's anything that you want to talk about.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
Rand I'm going to the floor today to try to
prevent war. Lindsey Graham is going to be trying to
start war with Russia today. He wants to designate Russia
as a state sponsor of terrorism because he wants to
show people how strong and brave he is. The problem
is is that once they make these designations, the administration says, oh,
that means we can just blow up their boats. So
(34:40):
they started blowing up the boats off of Venezuela. After
they called them terrorist organization. They call them DTOs Designated
terurist organizations. The danger is you get Russia lateis or
we're gonna be in the Black Sea blowing up their boats.
Speaker 8 (34:55):
So if we need to go to war with Russia, yeah,
back Alli, we had to think long and art about it.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Yeah, we vote, We got to vote in Congress.
Speaker 8 (35:02):
We shouldn't do it this back door way. They rattle
theirs and they want to.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
Look so tough against Russia. But really, weird negotiating with
Russia right now to end the war, because that mean
Russia is a good honest broker. No, you know they
started the war. They are the aggressive. There's not a
lot good to be said. But when you were trying
to negotiate a peace, I don't walk up to you,
put my finger in your chest and call your mother
a name. You you try to be diplomatic, which means you.
Speaker 8 (35:27):
Have to have discussions without name callings.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
Don't pick a fight. Well, we've got plenty of fights.
We got plenty of fights. We don't need to pick one.
As a as a man that's got a son in
the navy, we don't need to be picking fights. I
don't need that.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
Absolutely stain, Paul. I want you back next week on

Speaker 4 (01:14):
You there, man, I'm here.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
I can't remember I was in a tequila Hayes amongst

I've taken over the job at fern Creek, our athletic
director Troy Johnson and everybody in the community has been
very welcoming.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Here's the thing about baseball, it's similar to wrestling. The
sport that I was in, is it does not get
the attention that football and basketball gets.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Amen, neglected in a big way. And that's what we're
talking about now. Because you want your athletes, your your
players to have equipment they need, it's the funding they need,
and that's what we're talking about right now, right.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
Zach, Yes, sir, We've got ah.

order some new uniforms.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
We're gonna need baseballs. I've got a great.
Speaker 5 (02:37):

of a base of kids that want to join the.
Speaker 5 (03:34):
Team, you know, Like I said, I I really thoroughly
enjoyed my time at DASS. It's just a different environment.
It's a it's a different area of town. And fern
Creek is just I told people since the since the
day I took the job, it's it's a sleeping giant,
you know. If you if you look back in the
past five years, fern Creek has been in the you know,
(03:57):
in the regional title and uh, it's it's just a
spot where I'm really happy to be. Like I said,
I've got a great core group of kids so far
and looking to add some more come out during the spring.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Awesome.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Awesome, Well listen, I just shared it on my page, Zach.
So if you want to help up Thanky fern Creek,
maybe he went to fern Creek. Maybe got a kid
that goes fern Creek, pop on there and and help
him out and then I've also sent you several emails
saying that I'll do a hitting clinic for the kids.
But you have no.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
No, even though Will Smith learned.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Everything that Will Smith from the LA Dodgers learned everything
you knows from Uncle.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Coach Creek is arising.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Go Fern Creek, Coach Zach back see it, buddy, than
let's go.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
You got it?
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Come all right. FBI disrupted an alleged terroristic bombing plot
for New Year's Even Los Angeles. Did you see this?
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Uh no, yeah, we're in Los Angles there.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
It was gonna be five locations. Attorney General live, Yeah,
Turnal General Pam BONDI now yesterday. The suspects, you gotta
get a scarier name. The suspects are members of the
Turtle Island Liberation Front?
Speaker 6 (05:12):
Are they Leonardo Raphael? The teenage mutant Ninja Turtles? I
can't think of the other two names.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
So this is a liberal group that wants to So
there was a far left, far left group.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
According to the criminal complaint, they're so nice, Yeah they are.
You don't agree with us, blow you up.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
We're gonna spit.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
It was a far left criminal complaint and the group
had been making they've been purchasing and making bombs. They
traveled to the Mohave Desert on Friday to build and
test explosive devices.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
So wait a minute, So we're joking here because it's
such a goofy name, stupid does whatever, But are they
you're talking about significant explosions that we're gonna hill people.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
That's exactly what they were looking to do. FBI. The
FBI agents arrested them before they could finish putting together
a working bomb.
Speaker 7 (06:03):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
The suspects face charges of conspiracy and possession of unregistive
destructive devices. Court documents say they plan they called the
operation we gotta come up with I don't know any
that's Operation Midnight Sun. Operation Midnight Sun. We're joking and
probably shouldn't be, because it involved placing backpacks with homemade
bombs and five locations tied to US companies to go
(06:28):
off at midnight on New Year's Eve.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
So they were hoping to blow these places up and
nobody works there at the time because it's midnight on
New Year's Eve. Hopefully everybody's off I don't know, cleaning
the place or whatever. It be a tech company, but
this is this is not they're supposed to be liberals.
They are supposed to be we have everybody, but they're
(06:51):
trying to blow people up. So how many five of them?
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Five of them?
Speaker 1 (06:54):
And then how many people all together are they all
going to go to They're all going to go to prison?
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Just the store because because how do you do that?
Because I'm fifty seven and you want to why because
five minutes later I could say, well, the FBI foiled
a play you know what I mean?
Speaker 6 (07:12):
I don't know what I do the same thing. I
can't keep all my tabs open after I've gone through it.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
You gotta get Oh, it's not tabs, don't Yeah, it's a.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Nice seventies diet drink tab. Well. Patrick Mahomes avoided major
he avoided major damage to other ligaments, and it's neither saying.
Kansas City's coach Andy Reid said yesterday that Patrick Mahomes
avoided major damage to other ligaments in his left knee
(07:43):
after Sucker suffering from a torn a cl It's not
like it's an Achilles tendon. I mean, it's just an ac.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Well, no doubt. But they are not going to make
the playoffs for the first time, so that.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Well not with that attitude that I can't to fix.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Is not in unlike I know what you believe me?
The script? Hang on, that's there's no rescript.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
There's no the NFL script.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Oh wait, I've uh pause on this, John, Do you
have the sound that I that from wit It said
the title of it is Dwight and Whitlock agreed, I
do have that.
Speaker 7 (08:16):
Okay, turn the National Football League into a soap opera
and Shader Sanders is the biggest star, and they use
other soap opera stars like Steven A. Smith to talk about.
But it's all part of a deception campaign to mask
the fact that the product is actually ruled and run
and controlled by the officials who all have ear pieces
(08:38):
in and who all take direction from whoever's magically talking
to them in their ear piece.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
See.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
That's that's crazy that that no one's talking to the Revsie,
I have right here the script for the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Yeah, but I want to do spoilers, so I'm not
gonna do that.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
I so you got the script for for Kansas City losing.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
And and he got script for every single playoff game.
There is right here in front of who wins. He's
not gonna tell you.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
That information. Whitlocke is a pretty legitimate source. And he's
here on this podcast saying, yeah, they're they're given. I
don't think he is being sarcastic.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Here Mahomes, Patrick Mahomes is heading to Dallas for a
second opinion. I want they're gonna say, Okay, you got
a torn a c L and you're ugly to get it.
Second opinion, Yeah, we got it.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
It was a stupid joke in nineteen eighty.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
No, it was not a Cowboys team. Physician Daniel Cooper
is expected h to meet with him later this week.
Reid says he expects a fairly quick recovery as long
as the surgery goes well.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
He had to go to Dallas, So apparently in Kansas
City they don't have an Ellison Bodenhowden.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
No, he's coming Louisville for Ellison clearly. The thirty year
old quarterback wrote on social media that he will be
back stronger than that ever. Backup quarterback Gardner Minshee Minshew Minshoe.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
He's got the cool, he's got the fu Man shoe mustache.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Here's what you're saying. You're saying, well, did you back
with the man shoe. Yep, uh, you're saying, you know
it's he's just a backup quarterback. What can he do?
What can he do? Well, let me tell you the
story of when the great Phil Simms the New York
Giants went down mid midway. And who did they have
sitting on the bench.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
He had an awesome mustache too.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Nol Hargrave was sitting on the bench. And no, I
don't think it was his name, Carl, What was Jesse?
Dixon was sitting on the bench, and he did everything
he could to sit the bench. He ran back punt returns,
you name it, just to keep that second string spot.
You know what he did? What was his name again?
Bill Cox? Bill Cox went out there and he won
(10:50):
that freaking Super Bowl. And you know why I did it?
And you know how he did it because he had
a can do attitude.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Now out like Mendoza. Yeah, uh okay. So Kansas City, John,
you can jump in here on this because you little
bit more sports ball than than Grinch over there. Kansas
City's been the story for the NFL for the last
four or five years. Am I lying about that or not? No?
Speaker 6 (11:18):
Last year they could have they could have won their
third straight Super Bowl until they got blown out by
the Eagles.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Right, But they've been the story for four or five years. Yeah,
and it was before Taylor Swift got involved. That just
added to it, That just added to the insanity. But
they have been and they started to look like the
Patriots where they were like, oh, sure they're terrible through
six games, and next thing you know, they win the
Super Bowl. And I bet you they fix a lot
of stuff next year, and I think Kelsey will end
(11:45):
up retiring.
Speaker 6 (11:46):
You think next year will be his last year or
he'll I think he'll ann. I think he'll one a half.
He'll have his farewell tour. You're not You can't be
associated with somebody like Taylor Swift and not have a
farewell tour to kind of go along with it.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Dwight, What happened at de Bruce Springsteen when he got
happy and had kids? Oh the music did not do well,
did not do well, So listen you think there's a joke.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
I interviewed Tom Morello, the guitar player from Rage Against
the Machine. He came out with a solo project. This
was like eight or so. I interviewed him. I said, Hey,
how come no Rage Against the Machine music, and on
the air he goes, you really want to know why?
Oh yeah, why? He said, we all got rich. There
was nothing to be pissed off about anything, correct, So
(12:36):
he was serious.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
He's got he's got his own hundred million dollar contract
for his podcast. His brother and him are doing really
great with that. He's about to marry and I think
he's legitimately in love with this woman, a billionaire. You
see what script says on that in love. They're getting
married this year. He's not. He doesn't have the same fire.
(12:59):
He's not the same player. He was terrible in the
super Bowl last year and he was serviceable this year.
It's time for him to retire.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
Here's what's going on. He was Travis Kelsey. Now he's
mister Taylor Swift. It's uh, he's been damasculated.
Speaker 6 (13:15):
Maybe he'll pull in Austin Montgomery and change his last
name to Swift when they get married.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
I'm going to Austin's wedding on Saturday. I'm going to
try not to think about it the entire time. I
can't just like he's taking her name.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Susan, and I can't go to the wedding because I've
got an issue with my eye.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Oh wait, you can't see you self going.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
I can't see myself leaving the house Saturday or Sunday winter.
And plus, where is somewhere like you know, monkey butt,
Kentucky or something, right, it's not no, it is no,
it's not. Well, what it's like a monkey's eyebrow.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
That's a real place, the monkey butt, monkey's eyebrow.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
They got a great winery. They're known for their nuts too.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
It's where is monkey butt, Kentucky?
Speaker 6 (14:00):
Monkey's eyebrow?
Speaker 1 (14:02):
Oh it's not monkey butt?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
No his face, well, no, but monkey it used to
be monkey butt. But tourism got involved and they said,
we are you having really trouble getting people to come
to our town.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
I thought it was in Louisville.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Oh, dude, you're in for like an hour twenty each way.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
No, no, that's not happening.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
You committed, you can't.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
Well.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
I was just right up with I was right up
front with him. I said, Austin, I love you, man,
but I'm not leaving the house, dude. I have coming up.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
I have a funeral right before it. So I was
just gonna go from the funeral to the other funeral,
which is his wedding.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
I can't play the funeral card.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
I did tell him that this week I got two
funerals on Saturday, a funeral from a most beloved aunt
and your funeral the wedding.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
He's kind of treated it like I did tell Austin though,
I said, look, when you get married on your honeymoon night,
you kids are gonna be so confused about what to do.
She's going to ask you to do things that are unnatural.
So I made them a DVD in a structural DVD
that me and Susan produce.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
Yeah, very nice of you.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
You still don't know what to do on her honeymoon?
You know, well me because these kids.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
I don't know. I don't I don't think i've met her.
But the way she he talks about her, it sounds
like after they get married, he's going to be the
guy with the keys in his mouth, carrying the luggage
and going, yes he's got keys, not going ma'am, do
you know how many?
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Do you know how many mall benches he's going to
be sitting on while she tries on outfitsts. I mean,
comes out and shows him look at that.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
But let's be honest. I mean he beggars can't be choosers.
How many options does he have?
Speaker 6 (15:30):
I hope he's not listening right now.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Well I want to say he is, because Austin, when
we were talking about uh, Pope.
Speaker 6 (15:38):
Not Pope, Stoops Stoops.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
And Sting the wrestler Sting getting his son to play
for UK football, he chimed in, yeah it was Sting.
Sting's real name is Stevie Borden and the player was
Stevie Borden.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Junior, and the great grandmother was Lizzie Borden, which murdered
people with an act.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
That's true. And then Joey Strader said that saying is
his son's actually wrestling now whatever?
Speaker 1 (16:03):
That's uh so we wish him all the luck and.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Yeah, you're gonna need it, I mean, and I need.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
To find out if it is in Monkey Brow, Kentucky.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Dude, I'm telling you your Saturday shot. I was just
up front with him.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Look our twenty drive is that changes the dynamics.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
See it's almost three hours to forty when you put together,
and he might have like the Hajju'd of weddings to
just go on.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
I'm glad you said something because I have not sent
the invoice for my talent fee for being there?
Speaker 2 (16:32):
A steep invoice to your weekend? Are you're the efficient
his weekend talent fee?
Speaker 1 (16:38):
No, just to be there?
Speaker 2 (16:40):
No, his weekend talent fee is steep. Duo did Austin
agree to? Are you just gonna invoice him?
Speaker 1 (16:45):
No, I'm just gonna invoice him. I thought I thought
it was implied. If I'm going to your wedding, get
a talent fee.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Hey, you know who's not going to charge you for
worthless crap? Tony's breaking alignment. You take your car in,
They're going to fix the problem. Are I gonna come
at you with a laundryal list of stuff that you
don't need? Tony's breaking alignment. They've been family owned and
operated for three generations. Why is that a big deal? Pride?
They put pride in their work. They put pride in
(17:10):
their name so much to the point they'll go back
it up with not just a warranty, but a three year,
thirty six thousand mile warranty. And that's on every single
job they do. It's not just breaks alignment. They do
just about anything with just about any type of vehicle.
Put your mind at rest, Go with Louisville's best to
go back it up three year guaranteed, Tony's breaking alignment.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
I was at Trade Oak Towers the other day and
I met a guy that's moving in there, Jeff Hosteddler.
He's over sixty five.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
We were just talking about him. Jeff Hostedler.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
You think it's the same one could be.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Did they ever play sports ball?
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Yeah, still has a mustache. Whoa. He loves the place. Man,
you gotta be sixty five year older. It's not downtown,

Speaker 2 (18:28):
Oh no, if Austin Montgomery's having trouble at home because
he's sending me all these texts with profanity in it.
Look look at this. You know he's upset about something.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Oh yeah, back after this. On NewsRadio eight forty whas
Oh my gosh more Silverchair today in honor of their
new number one album Tho Thenumber one hits.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
If you ingest, If you ingest something that's poisonous and
you need to make yourself sick. I highly reckom in
this album. It induces vomiting quite quickly.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
All right, Ram Paul will join us here in a
couple of minutes. He was down near beaver Dan where
Cornbread Hemp. That's where celebrated.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
That's where is getting married.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
No it's not. No, you're an idiot. And he came
in and said, no, it's in Jeffersonville.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
You try.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
You got me nervous. I'm not driving an hour and
twenty four.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Then when anybody invites me to a wedding, first question, Wow,
I got to check the dat. And by the way,
where's it located.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Yeah, they have a state of the art facility and
HEMP tourism experience that started on Monday. Cornbread Hemp. I
told I said this at the beginning. It was just
surreal because I know the history of Cornbread slash Mafia
and how they've come full circle because the federal government
had made them enemy number one and it was ridiculous
(19:53):
and it was we all knew it was stupid, but
they made marijuana like the worst thing you can do.
And now now it's being it's obviously embraced.
Speaker 8 (20:03):
Well.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Joe Keith Bickett from the Cornbread Mafia is a dear
friend of mine and the show by the way as well,
and he's done the show several times. And what sucked
is they used they would get busted for weed, but
at the time it wasn't the felony that it is now.
And then overnight they get busted and now they're looking
(20:25):
at twenty twenty plus years a federal time.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
I know, it's crazy, and now it's legal in thirty
three states. It's it's crazy, still illegal.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Hollywood needs to make a production now of the Cornbread
Mafia here in Kentucky. There's no question, because they told
us that the growing conditions between I can't recall the
name starts with R where they grew it. It's very
similar to Columbia, just Kentucky and generally humidity.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Correct.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Correct, So I was at Arkansas, Kentucky.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
I was, you know, gonna ask him what, you know,
ran where? What if there was an appetite in Washington
for you know, getting rid of the federal part of that,
so you can use cash in these stores and you know,
maybe opening up a little bit more. But since they
just passed this this federal action that is going to
even get rid of the hemp and the CBD oil
(21:20):
stuff kind of stuff.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
I mean, I just don't understand that because I use
CBD and I use Delta eight.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
That's one of the ten medications you take to sleep
two hours allegedly.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Oh no, I know you're right, But seriously, why would
you take away Delta eight and CBD for that matter.
I guess we'll find that.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Here's the thing. What just in the short time it's
been uh okay and legal, it's now a billion dollar
industry in Kentucky. It is. It's really taken off and
these are employing I bet you ran Paul knows the number,
but it employing a lot of So we'll talk to
(22:02):
him about that. And the biggest story obviously that led
the news yesterday afternoon after we got.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Out there, Kentucky. Thank you, Kerry mcnatis, Raywick, Kentucky, Okay.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Sixteen hundred employees at the Blue Oval plant in Etown
are out of a job, every single employee that they
had there. Obviously, when it first they first said we're
going to do this, we all there wasn't any There
wasn't anybody that said this is going to be a mistake.
The appetite for these evs aren't there yet. Maybe it
(22:35):
is in twenty years, but today it's not. And all
you gonna do is ask a car salesman. They'll tell
you no, I'll sell ten ten twenty gas cars before
I sell one of the EV's. It doesn't add up.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Yeah, they don't want them on the lot.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
So you sold this to Etown. Etown people got ready
for it. I was a little excited about it because
I was like, well, at least the high school athletics
will get better in Eastown because everyone's going to move there.
Business has moved there and now and I saw a
news story where they were talking about that they even
were building the wrong batteries.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Really, yeah, and so what's Look, it always sucks to
lose your job, but meant right at Christmas too.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
No, I'm and Ford should take care of those sixteen
hundred employees with a special package on the way out,
just to say, hey, thank you for going in on
this dream and moving down here with your families. That's
sixteen hundred families that are losing their jobs before Christmas.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Orn't mind everybody, Oh, Center, Rand, Paul, Hey sener to Paul,
how are you, sir?
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Good morning guys. You're not causing any trouble yet today, well.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
Oh several times already. It's oh, well, the show's almost over, sir.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
So it hasn't exactly been our year of staying out
of the principals. The Center Ran, Paul, and I want
you back next week for your airing of grievances. So
I'm working on that right now.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Oh that'll be fun.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
But there's several things we want to talk to you.
But we're gonna talk about himp here in just a second.
But I want to talk about you introducing a health
marketplace and savings account act for all. Yeah, because listen,
if you ask me, it's horrible the situation.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
When you're not talking about the kid one the Trump
baby born in four years.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
I want to talk to Okay Ran pause on his
because if you ask me, healthcare is horrible. Uh. You
never know what procedure is going to cost, and there's
no there's no pricing, and next thing you know, your
hit and you're out of X amount of dollars. Talk
about this savings account health plan that you have going.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
So when President Obama introduced Obamacare, the goal was he
said to reduce premiums by twenty five hundred dollars, and
I think that was annually. It turns out the opposite happened.
Insurance premiums have skyrocketed. So every year there's the substance
get bigger and bigger, but the price gets more and more.
Now you have Obamacare plans with you know, five six,
(24:55):
seven thousand dollars deductibles, and they're still costing you know,
quite a bit of money, twenty twenty five thousand dollars,
thirty thousand dollars ridiculous. So what we need to do
is figure out how to get lower prices. Now, some
of the Republicans want to do what I call Obamacare light.
Instead of giving them money to directly the insurance company,
you give it to the HSA, and then your HSA
gets it to the insurance company. To me, that's just
(25:16):
sort of a pit stop and isn't going to bring
things down. What I'd like to do is, if you're
an individual, if you're an accountant with three employees, or
you're a landscaping company with ten employees, and you're just
not very big, but you want to get insurance, let
these people join a collective or a co op like
Sam's Club, Costco Amazon, and then when you have like
(25:37):
a million people, or maybe even five million people, one
person calls up United Healthcare and says, I've got five
million people, what kind of deal can I get?
Speaker 8 (25:47):
And then you buy them group insurance.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
If you do this, it equalizes a playing.
Speaker 8 (25:51):
Field right now.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
If you're an accountant and you have three employees and
you call up a big health insurance company, they say
take it or leave it because you have no I
don't care if you or not. But if you had
the leverage, if there were five million of you, my
guess is that whoever your negotiator is would sit down
with the CEO of the company, you'd have the best
insurance in the land, the best.
Speaker 8 (26:10):
Price in the land.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Because you'd be bigger than any corporation in America and
you would have that leverage of size. All it takes
is legalized, doesn't cost anything.
Speaker 8 (26:19):
All we have to do is change the law to let
people join these plans.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
So I've been pushing this for years, and the first
Trump administration, I met with President Trump in the Oval
Office and I got him to signed an executive order.
The problem with executive orders is the courts, you know,
sue They pushed back, and unless you really change the law,
it's hard to get people to really form an organization
that takes money and time to organize. So I've talked
(26:43):
with him again. We exchanged texts.
Speaker 8 (26:45):
A couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
He says he still supports my plan, and so I'm
pushing to try to get it included. Unfortunately, last week
we voted, you know, on the Senate alternatives, and they
had one alternative with the Democrat plan just to keep
giving more people more money that goes to insurance company.
Speaker 8 (27:02):
And then the Republican plan was to give you a
little bit less money and give it into your HSA
or health savings account.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
And I'm just not for the government buying insurance for
people who make one hundred thousand dollars a year or
two hundred.
Speaker 8 (27:14):
The current Obamacare plan. This is important.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
People don't realize this. They think poor people are getting this.
Poor people get Medicaid. The people getting this are fairly
well off. Someone making one hundred thousand dollars a year
gets thirteen thousand dollars in stuff subsidies. Well, the last
I looked, one hundred thousand dollars a year is not bad.
People making two hundred thousand dollars a year still get
about fifteen to eighteen hundred dollars. Well, that's kind of
(27:37):
insane to give some of two hundred thousand dollars any
kind of government money.
Speaker 8 (27:40):
Right, So I wouldn't be given these subsidies at all.
I'm just for letting them expire. But I'm not without
concerns for prices.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
I would do everything it takes to bring prices down.
And then then one other part of my plan is this,
I would let everybody have a health savings account. Right now,
only ten percent of people have insurance products that let
them legally buy health savings accounts.
Speaker 8 (28:01):
Really everybody have one? Yeah, I would let everybody have one.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
Think of all the people have braces in this country. Yeah,
I'll bet you eighty percent of the kids in our
country have braces. Three of my kids had braces. We
paid for it with pre tax dollars that we put in.
Speaker 8 (28:14):
Al savings account.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
But everybody should have that advantage, not just to a
few people.
Speaker 8 (28:18):
Everybody should have it.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
I would also let you pay your premiums out of
your health savings account. I would let you buy diet
programs out of or apply to a diet program out
of it. I'll let you get a gym membership out
of that sort of health and wellness. I would include
and expand what you can spend it on, and expand
how much money you can put in a hel savings account.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
I think it's beautiful and I hope it passes Senator
Paul because and here's a staggering number Americas collectively right now, oh,
over two hundred billion dollars in medical debt.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Tawney, well, to that point, Senator I saw I don't
know if you saw this video. It was online, this
eighty eight year old veteran that worked for GM for
forty years. He was working at a grocery store in
this this person video and said, hey, do you just
like working? And he's started to cry and said no,
GM went belly up with his pension, and he probably
(29:13):
he thought his entire life rand. He was thinking, I
worked for GM, They're never I'm going to have my pension.
And then his wife gets sick and he has to
sell the house to pay for her bills and she's
she dies. It's just sad to look at this situation
to where.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
I saw I saw, I saw that story. Yeah, why
do we not have anybody saying that we need subsidies
for TVs or for cell phones or for anything else,
and including cell phones which are fairly essential in modern life.
Speaker 8 (29:40):
Because of competition.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
So I do have sympathies to this guy, and no
one the company that ripped him off with a pension
probably should be liable if they've made promises and they
went back.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
On the promise.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Right.
Speaker 8 (29:51):
But the other thing is is that we can bring
insurance down.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
The two items in our country that have massive inflation
and no control prices or education and healthcare.
Speaker 8 (30:02):
What do they have in common? The government subsidizes both.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
So when you subsidize something, you artificially increase the demand
and the marketplace response says, oh, this is great. The
government's give them free money.
Speaker 8 (30:11):
We'll just raise the rates.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
And so every year they raise the rates, and so
there's enormous amounts of inflation in healthcare. But what we
really need is a system where everybody is health savings account.
When you're young and healthy, you try not to use
your health care, you try to save more. As you
save more, you get a high deductible and realize this
This is why insurance comings make the money.
Speaker 8 (30:33):
They know these statistics.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Ninety eight percent of people between twenty and forty don't
get a major health problem ninety eight percent.
Speaker 8 (30:40):
So all that.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
Money that you're pre paying your health care, you should
be saving and getting a hire and hire deductible. Ninety
percent of the people by the time that the thirty
five should be able to be in a ten thousand
dollars deductible because they've saved a little bit each year,
save one thousand dollars a year, put it into these accounts,
and all of a sudden, when you have a ten
doll into alre deductible and you have no mandates on
(31:02):
the insurance, you decide what you want. It could be
that it's more like term life insurance. You remember how
term like when you were twenty five, you get term
life insurance. You get a half a million for five
hundred bucks. We need is insurance that's more like that,
that covers catastrophes but not everyday cost. And we let
people save in their health savitory.
Speaker 8 (31:20):
Yes, in the marketplace would work.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
And that touches everything. It's why people aren't having as
many kids as they used to. I mean when I
was in grade school, we had I have three siblings,
and it's like we were a small family. Now people
don't because it's it costs too much to do that.
And old people should not lose their homes for medical bills.
I mean that that was part of that guy's story,
and I said, that's that's we live in America. Well,
(31:43):
if you're retiring and you can't go back to work,
you shouldn't lose your home. All right, Let's get to
something a little bit better, which is cornbread. HEMP celebrated
a state of the art production facility, a HEMP Tourism experience. Uh,
and you were there, tell us tell about that experience
and where this is all going, and then talk about
legislation that you might be able to save some of this.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
You know, Ever, since tobacco should have died, farmers lost
that cash crop. It pays better than corn days better
than soybeans. Well, help is a possible, not a complete replacement,
but can replace some of that. So farmers grow this,
make good money off of it. And the marketplace is
two adults and two adults who either want to enjoy
it as a beverage or want to take something for
(32:27):
sleep anxiety at night. And what I say to these prohibitionists,
these people like Mitch McConnell that want to tell you
what to do. Who was he to tell some person
that can't sleep at night they couldn't take a little
bit of hemp versus taking you know, narcotics, all these pharmaceuticals.
Speaker 8 (32:45):
So big pharma.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
You can spend one hundred dollars a pill, or you
can have a gummy of hemps THC that's a lot
less expensive. And whose business is it of Mitch McConnell
will tell you what you can do for sleep a minute.
Speaker 1 (32:59):
By the way, By the way, the average age of
the people that have gotten their card is over sixty. Yeah,
it's over sixty years old. It's not good. So all
of the fear mongers and oh, there's twenty somethings's just
gonna go out there to get stone. Like, no, the
average as is sixty years old or older. It's kind
of crazy.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
It's aus the irony.
Speaker 8 (33:18):
Yeah, here's the irony, Kentucky.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
You set up a regulatory apparatus for product, you have
to be twenty one. Well, you know, if the federal
law comes in and supersedes its, McConnell wins, and the
federal law supersedes there's no age limit. So he goes
around saying, oh, yeah, I want to keep this from
the kids. His law pre ms Kentucky law, which does
keep He's telling people the opposite of the truth. He's
(33:44):
not well informed, but he's going to cripple a billion
dollar industry, a.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
Billion it's center.
Speaker 4 (33:51):
Paul.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
Let me tell you something. Okay, if I take saying
ambition to get to sleep, and then I'm getting ready
fifty eight is not what it used to be, I
might forget and take another ambim. There's chances of overdoses
what I'm saying. Yeah, here's what you won't overdose on
CBD or THC. Can't do it, You'll urinate it out.
(34:12):
It makes zero sense to me.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
All right, one minute to go. We'll give you the
floor if there's anything that you want to talk about.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
Rand I'm going to the floor today to try to
prevent war. Lindsey Graham is going to be trying to
start war with Russia today. He wants to designate Russia
as a state sponsor of terrorism because he wants to
show people how strong and brave he is. The problem
is is that once they make these designations, the administration says, oh,
that means we can just blow up their boats. So
(34:40):
they started blowing up the boats off of Venezuela. After
they called them terrorist organization. They call them DTOs Designated
terurist organizations. The danger is you get Russia lateis or
we're gonna be in the Black Sea blowing up their boats.
Speaker 8 (34:55):
So if we need to go to war with Russia, yeah,
back Alli, we had to think long and art about it.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Yeah, we vote, We got to vote in Congress.
Speaker 8 (35:02):
We shouldn't do it this back door way. They rattle
theirs and they want to.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
Look so tough against Russia. But really, weird negotiating with
Russia right now to end the war, because that mean
Russia is a good honest broker. No, you know they
started the war. They are the aggressive. There's not a
lot good to be said. But when you were trying
to negotiate a peace, I don't walk up to you,
put my finger in your chest and call your mother
a name. You you try to be diplomatic, which means you.
Speaker 8 (35:27):
Have to have discussions without name callings.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
Don't pick a fight. Well, we've got plenty of fights.
We got plenty of fights. We don't need to pick one.
As a as a man that's got a son in
the navy, we don't need to be picking fights. I
don't need that.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
