Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay, Ross and I are on vacation next week, so yeah,

(00:05):
I know, I know we got fired. Whatever, send your
stuff anyway, but yeah, not gonna be here. I will
say this though, before you send me the inevitable email
or social media message. I know you're gonna send me.
You are not gonna get We're not gonna put Gordon
Deal on, so we have a we have a different

(00:26):
fill in show for you. And by the way, don't
Eve run Gordon Deal anymore. Some of you may have
noticed that, but that will not be the fill in,
so don't complain. How's that right? And and honestly we've
never had control over that anyway, so it's it was
always fun, but yeah, not here next week. You've been

(00:49):
told we'll post on social media. I know not everyone
catches it right now, so we'll try to try to
make sure make sure you all know. Boy oh boy,
yes it Ross create what a great first day at
the Masters, right? Holy cow? Did you catch the insanity? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:07):
No, the way Lee Trevino came back.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
He's not playing, he's not in it. Do you mean
he came back? What the dialysis or what.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
It's fair to say? I what I mean to say?
Is the spirit of Lee Trevino. Okay, well that's in
physical form on the golf.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
Actually, that would be the worst person to whose spirit
to embody for the Masters, because Lee Trevino is famous
for being a having a hostile relationship to the point
where he boycotted the Masters. So life, but you mean
before all that, right, I mean young Lee Trevino.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Right right in his prime?

Speaker 1 (01:44):
Okay, you know, how about the tie for the leader leaders?

Speaker 2 (01:48):
Yeah? How about that?

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Man? Yeah? I mean, which are the two? Do you
think gonna.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
Probably the first of the two?

Speaker 1 (01:56):
Yeah, first of the two based on how Masters ranks
it or how traditionally golf ranksit based on world breaking.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
Uh huh yeah, I can I concur.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
Okay, what have I told you? One's American, one's a foreigner.
I gotta go to the American Okay, all right, that's
what I was talking about. Sam Burns, Yeah, okay, all right, yeah,
Sam Burns. And the other one is uh last year's winner,
Ry McElroy from Northern Ireland there so, uh who By

(02:31):
the way, it's funny, it's funny. So apparently Rory's why
do you know the whole back to you? I'm sure
you don't Russ but because clearly doesn't say you followed
golf and that's okay. So Rory McElroy, uh is one
of these love hate guys. Like when he's on, he's
so fun to watch, but like he just rubs people

(02:54):
the wrong way and it's just as you can just
tell it's his personality. But you know, he finally I
was written for him last year to win. I didn't
care because he was all he was doing was beating
up on a brit And I understand he's British being
Northern Ireland, but still in the form of a rose there.
But you know, he was like he did this thing

(03:15):
where he was engaged to be married this other chick
and then just like insta quit like right before the
wedding via like a text message or something. And now
he's with this other woman. They are married and she
wrote a book and apparently she and this is such
this So this is crazy because this is so relatable
even if you're not billionaire golfers. Right. So Rory idolized

(03:39):
Tiger Woods when he was younger, and so when he
got on the tour was being very good. Him and
Tiger got a really close relationship but Rory is super competitive,
which a lot of these guys are, to the point
where like he has health issues because all he wants
to do is train, train, train, And so when he
budied up with Tiger Woods is not many people are

(04:00):
friends with Tiger Woods. Tiger would do things like text
Rory at four in the morning with a picture of
him in the gym, and then Rory would I have
to get up and I got to go to the gym.
And so she clearly hates Tiger and this predates literally
this last arrest because she wrote this book. You know,
like a year ago they were working on this book.
But you know, it's it's that thing right where you

(04:24):
got your spouse's friend that you just hate, but they're
just you know, that's their friend. Except she's gonna put
in a book. And then you know, the timing's kind
of right. Not a lot of people are gonna be
uh gonna be uh defending Tiger. But when you're at
that level, this, see, this is the thing. This is
the thing that kills me. When you're at that level

(04:46):
and you're this woman who married Rory, like you have
to know that's how that dude's gonna be just you
just did the pro athlete side of things, Like, I
don't know, man, I see stuff like that and I
kind of look at her and I'm like, what did
you think you were signing up for? You think you're

(05:06):
gonna change him? If you change him, he's not one
of the top golfers in the world anymore because that's
the commitment that he's made to his sport. And we
make different commitments to different things, like, uh, that would
be that would be like Ross's wife being really upset
that he has to go into work early. It's like, well, yeah, yeah,

(05:28):
this is what I do for a living. So yeah,
McRoy is going to be very competitive with the guy
he idolizes, who, at the time they became friends, was
the number one golfer in the world and that's what
Rory wanted. So anyway, uh yeah, so it was it
was it was very entertaining watching what is this you

(05:50):
and Ross can't take the whole week of.

Speaker 3 (05:54):
It.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
Kind of it kind of works that way, bro, because
Ross runs, Ross runs the board, and if Ross is
not who runs the board? Advice Like, trust me, people
don't want your best option.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
Yeah, people don't understand that. Yeah, I have a hard
time either. They were in twenty twenty six. What do
you mean to ain't possible.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
It's just it's just not the way we do things.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
Have you seen my board?

Speaker 1 (06:19):
It's it's uh retro as it's you know, it's it's
it's it's a comeback. It's a comeback board. It's literally
the first model digital board they ever created. If there
was a board Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, it
would be it would be in the initial induction ceremony

(06:40):
because it would have exceeded the twenty five plus years
I have to have whatever.

Speaker 2 (06:43):
I've tried to explain this to people before and they
go they don't even know. They're like, can't he just
vp VPN into your board? Well, like, what does that
even mean?

Speaker 1 (06:54):
It sounds fancy though, isn't it. And they do. They
do make some boards that you can run. I guess
technically you can VPN into because you can you can
control the slides digitally, but it just wouldn't. No, trust me,
you don't want this thing, and we're gonna take our vacation,
which by the way, is less than any of the

(07:14):
national hosts. I tell people this and they just like, ah,
it's not true. And I'm like, it is, I know
how much vacation Ross and I get, and then I
know how much vacation because we there's broadcast wheels that
talk about all this stuff, so we know how much
the national hosts get. So trust me, it's better this way,

(07:36):
especially because it's gonna get so crazy at the end
of the year, right because elections, right, So let us
get out of our system. Now you'll be you'll be
better for it. So let's see here, rob someone else
have Oh, Robert McIntyre, I don't know. They're trying to
make a big deal over him flipping off a water hazard.

(07:59):
You know many times I've done that. Trust me. If
you're at the Masters and you hit your ball as
a professional into the same drink twice in a row,
have an absolute meltdown on one hole, which is notorious
at the Masters, especially on once you get through a
man corner, and of course on number fifteen. Number fifteen

(08:20):
has decimated would be champions. And so dude whose truck
on while he's playing okay, drops two in the drink
and he does what is one of the most natural
things in golf. He then extends his middle finger to
his ball, which is now, you know, in the in

(08:40):
the water. He ended up with an eight, eight over
par eighty, tied for eighty second. Not looking good for
that dude. Dave Schambeau had a melt down. He had
he had a seven. This is the problem with Dave Schambeau.
Although he really didn't look good all around in the
back half, and I just think it was getting in
his head. He is those short iron man or not
his friend unless he's on on. But man, he crushes

(09:05):
the ball, absolutely crushes the ball. So that was that
was great.

Speaker 4 (09:12):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (09:13):
I was just say, send send ra hold on, what
is this? Send Ross out to the bucker to reenact
Bryson's mplosure. He could and he doesn't golf. Uh all right,
Uh Boston Paul still on the Shambeau. Still, Hey, look

(09:33):
if the guy's on, he's got the talent to get there.
Patrick Reid was leading for a little while. Everybody hates
that dude. I just think that's funny. I don't fully
understand it, but I think it's funny. It makes people
makes people mad for no, for no discernible reason. Because
you know, the the rap on Reid is that he's
a liner and he cheats sometimes, and man in the

(09:54):
world at golf, uh, cheating is no bueno. People get
to very very upset. So yeah, I don't know. It's
just a good first round, of course, look great, people
doing their thing. A couple of the pin positions were
just insane yesterday, and it's like, it's Thursday. What are
you doing so super excited to h while my weekend

(10:16):
away doing absolutely nothing watching that? All right, six seventeen
here on the CaCO Day radio program. Let's go ahead
and take a break, be right back, hang on. Problem
is somebody's gonna do that right, and they're gonna be
can I don't. They're gonna be so confused, or they're
gonna think that I was promoting that on the air.
So I had to send Ross an email about something

(10:39):
and he, because we're off next week, has turned his
auto reply on. And the show is not even a
half hour through. You we have over two and a
half hours of show today. Still.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
Yeah, but I gotta warm it up, you know what
I mean.

Speaker 1 (10:52):
It's not globe plugs on a diesel. That's not that's
not how I'm old school in the winter. Now I'm
a jen you know, I warm it up the fact
that you included the link to It'd be one thing
if you just wrote the thing, but you included the link.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
I went the extra mile.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
To send Ross an email. It says, you know, not
a reply. It says I am on vacation until four
to twenty. For questions or concerns, please go to contact
Governor Josh Stein at NC Governor. It's the link to
the contact email on the Governor's page. Well one, you
probably won't get an answer because nobody in the Governor's

(11:37):
office for over the last eight years has ever responded
to anything we've ever sent him. I know that's crazy, right,
but not really when you consider it. We're talking about
Roy Cooper there. So Stein, I don't know if you
ever say anything to the Governor's office per se. I

(11:57):
think it was when he was a candidate, but I
don't have much hope. Uh sweenny who uh? And then Ross?
But Ross linked it, so if you literally the link
is active, so you don't even have to think you
can go there and write whatever stupid thing you want.
But you can do that anyway. So let's see here. Sorry,

(12:19):
I was just kidding Grabs, So I've got a little
little distracted there, Oh this email somebody, I'll send me
an email basically, Uh, they would not they want us
to go on or but me, probably because you're not
doing it. Vacation for two weeks and do it now
so they don't have to hear me talk about the
Masters anymore. Now I'm gonna talk about the Masters. Were

(12:40):
Are you happy I can talk about the Master? I'll
tell you what if you don't like that, how about this?
Why don't we talk about how Mike Vrabel might get
fired ross? That'd be a shame, wouldn't it the pats
coach for canoodling with the married reporter.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
While that would beha mm hmmm mmm.

Speaker 1 (13:03):
What is a tub by themselves with fingers in her life?
It is a coincidence, Okay, so what.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Are they saying he did?

Speaker 3 (13:09):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (13:09):
So they have the annual NFL meetings were out in
like Arizona or New Mexico or whatever, and so there's
like adults only resort spa thing, and so somebody photographed
Vrabel and this NFL reporter they hug, which I guess
is fine. She's in you know, she's in a bathing suit.

(13:30):
He's in a bathing suit and a T shirt, but
they're had to put there at a pool deck right
in a hot tub, and then they like interlocked fingers
and then they're all cozied up in the hot tub
together and they're the only ones there, and then the
whoever the perv is photographing them, but it was TMZ
or whatever, and uh yeah, it just it looked like

(13:52):
it had the appearance of more than just colleagues because she,
you know, she reports on the NFL. He's a head
coach for the Patriots, and and they're both they're both
they're both married, and she has a history of talking
about how her husband is plain he's not good looking,
like she openly trashes her husband. So I've invested in this,

(14:13):
even though I note mostly ignore that stuff because it
doesn't look good. And I don't think she said anything
about it. She's just pretending like it didn't happen. So yeah,
but you know, there's there there are conduct things. I
don't know that they necessarily broke a law. And to
be fair, the person making the decision on his future

(14:34):
enjoys a nice fifty dollars bad part of town Asian
Robin Tugs, So who knows, maybe not going anywhere, but
you know, maybe it causes distraction with the team. So
there is that at Plus, you know, so there's a
people that Christians are mad a v Abel too because
he made some comment that they found they found asparait.

(14:57):
Don't remember exactly what it was. I guess I could
look it up, but if you care enough, you can
look it up. I didn't dive into that, but yeah,
it was the whole hot tub in it with the NFL. Plus,
there's the part where there if you're a reporter, these
are the people you're you're supposed to be covering. You
really can't be hooking up with them because then how
how can you fairly cover the Patriots versus everybody else?

(15:20):
If you know? So there is that concern as well.
Could be worse, like how the Vikings are supported by
Somali daycare. That's probably true. That's probably true because you remember,
you're dealing with a bunch of folks who are committing
a bunch of fraud. I told you it's crazy because
you'd see you see them driving around in like G
wagons or not g wagons, but like you know, big

(15:42):
expensive stuff, living in nice houses and never seemed to work.
Was weird. So the idea they may have Vikings tickets,
I'm not surprised. And remember people from Somalia have a
long tradition of taking to the high seas, as the
Vikings did for conquest. They run it a little different here.

(16:05):
All right, friends, we need to band together. We got
to stop something. This is. I saw this yesterday and
I became enraged, and we cannot allow this to happen.
I think you would agree Ross that when Taylor Swift's
wedding happens, you almost aren't gonna want to watch the
news that day or the day after, because they're gonna
go people are They're gonna go giddy covering this thing,

(16:29):
not just the tmzs. If you turn on your late
local news that night, I'm sure they'll have all the
h the coverage by all the networks, and uh I
I don't need to see it. The problem is this,
So we found out yesterday when they're getting married and
where they're getting married. Norma I wouldn't care. So they're

(16:52):
getting married in the US, in New York, so you
know that media access will be significant. On j third,
this is the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of this country,
which I know a bunch you're out here actively trying
to destroy with your lunacy. That being said, somehow we

(17:13):
held it together. It is the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary,
and I will be damned if the weekend of the
birthday of this country is gonna get overshadowed by a
stupid Taylor Swift Travis Kelsey wedding. It's not okay. What
is she like? How old? Like fifty five or something

(17:33):
too like? She because her birthday is on July fourth,
which is in every article covering this, And that's great,
go do your thing, but that you know, the wedding
thing is gonna be insane. You can't have this week.
It's not for you. Unacceptable ross what are we gonna do?

Speaker 2 (17:51):
No, No, I am very angry. I wish we need.
She needs to be deported. I don't know what her
original her country of origin is where she's from.

Speaker 1 (17:58):
Originally, Mom's from Haiti, fathers from Somalia.

Speaker 2 (18:01):
I guess I thought, yeah, I thought it was like Mogadishu.
That yeah, yeah, center back.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
Yeah, if you you can have your wedding over there,
it's beach front kind of you don't know that beach,
but is there. Yeah, maybe getting it wrong. Maybe our
mom's from Mogadishu, dads from Haiti, I'm not sure. I
can't remember. I mean, but pick one.

Speaker 2 (18:24):
Travis Kelsey also, he's not innocent here. He's also perpetuating
this sort of thing. He also, I mean, I'm just
gonna he needs to be banned from the NFL. I'm
just saying it out loud.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
Yeah, anniversary of this country, and she's gonna try to
make it hers unacceptable. Unacceptable deportations now, right, deportation and
a banning. Yeah yeah, yeah, and then we'll seeze her
Rhode Island and seem if there's more bodies there, get
that figured out. I don't even want to stare at

(18:54):
the news that day, but I do, because they're gonna
have this blowout up in New York. Plus trying to
I've been kind of weasling our national news guy who
kind of handles any of our big round up stuff
like Convent, the DNC, RNC stuff, and I'm like, we
should totally have a radio row up in DC for
this thing, so I can weasual a free trip to
DC to go watch, you know, all the race and

(19:15):
the fights and all that stuff. So and broadcast and
let you know what's going on. Wink wink. But thus
far now now probably gonna blow all the national budget
on sending the pop stations to the Taylor Swift wedding
or something. Let's see here, there's a quote in here

(19:39):
that threw me. You know, what doesn't matter, Plaine is nope,
can't have this week and in fact, nobody should be
able to get married that weekend. No, no, uh, you know,
red blooded American man who loves this country should get
drugged to a wedding that weekend, be able to sit
around and do America stuff. That's that's that's that's where

(20:01):
I'm at. So we need to start a movement, all right?
Six point thirty nine here on the KCO Day radio program,
being to movements. Oh what is this? Oh dude, see
I I psychically knew you were screwed that weekend? All right,
Jeff says there he has to go to a wedding

(20:22):
that weekend, and he's not happy about it.

Speaker 2 (20:25):
Going to the weddings are work. It's just the absolute worst.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
Yeah, there are people that for my weekend, yeah this one.

Speaker 2 (20:30):
There are people that really enjoy going to weddings. And
I've said it before. I do not want to go
to your wedding.

Speaker 1 (20:35):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
I do not want to be in your wedding. Please
do not invite me, because then You're gonna invite me,
and then I'm gonna feel bad and I'm going to
say yes, and then I'm going to be miserable the
whole time.

Speaker 1 (20:43):
I remember when you went to that one wedding. I
went to what was wrong with you?

Speaker 3 (20:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (20:47):
No, because I loved Ivan, He's a great dude. And
he asked me and I said yes, yeah, and I
was well behaved and actually, you know what, I did
have a good time, but inside that was miserable.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
Yeah. No, one wants to go to your wedding. Nobody cares.
Oh but what if it's a destination wedding? Then only
is that's the worst.

Speaker 2 (21:08):
That's the worst, because then you need to take vacation
time and then you need to buy the plane tickets
and you need to go over there and get a
hotel and I can't do that.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Yeah, I don't know. I've been to a couple. My
buddy got married up in Asheville. That was that was cool,
and because the ceremony was a little part of it,
but we u But also it was Kentucky Derby weekend,
so I was running the bedding pools at the wedding,
so I had other duties to do, so it kept

(21:37):
me busy. But yeah, man, I'll tell you the only
the wedding I most enjoyed was a wedding that I
wasn't at. I wasn't part of, but was able to
watch from a distance as the bride messed herself in
her dress because she was so drunk and had to
be taken away in an ambulance. And I just got
to sit there and watch this from like two hundred

(21:58):
yards away, drinking a beer.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
That was an amazing Is that a Melissa McCarthy movie.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
I don't know. I don't know if it's Is that
a Melissa mccarthury. I've told this story in the.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
Radio Kristin Wig or whatever, right with the whether she
poops in her dress in the street.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
Oh, the worst part was so the bride. The bride
got sick and everything else on her dress in the
women's room of the steakhouse, and she started calling for
her father. Remember she just got married. She's not calling
for her husband. She's calling for her dad, and it's
just like the man that's got to be emasculating for

(22:33):
the husband, because, like I thought, the transition just took place. Yeah,
happened up in the mountains of North Carolina. I was
always afraid when I told that story that somebody at
the wedding, because I don't know where they were from,
would be like listeners and be like, oh my gosh,
and then I'd be giving away something that maybe they
were kind of able to keep secret because it happened
a little ways away from the actual wedding party. But

(22:55):
I've told it. Never took any flag for it, So
what are you gonna do? Hint, hint. It was in
Low and Rock at a certain large scale hotel condo
set up up there. You know what I'm talking about,
Right when you get up there, Yep, yep, yep. And
that was amazing. They're having a big party on the
peninsula where the where the lake is there, and dude,

(23:20):
I couldn't. I wasn't. I was only gonna have one
cause I finished eating and I'm have one beer and
then go back up to the condo that we were
airbnbing up there. And then I saw that and I
just sat there for like an hour and a half
watching that unfold. It was super free, awesome entertainment, all right,
six forty three here on the KCODA radio program. So

(23:42):
all of that to say, no, you can't get married
on the third because the news coverage is going to
be that and I just wanted to be, you know,
awesome this because A look already and I'm prepared for it.
You should prepare yourself too. There is going to be
there is going to be a group of people who

(24:06):
hate America who are going to as the new cycle
ramps up, because you know, there's gonna be a bunch
of feature filler stories about historical things, and it's going
to be the sixteen nineteen attitude. Right, Oh, America is horrible.
I can't believe we're celebrating. Why are we doing this?
You know the tweets that every year you see him
on fourth of July, they're like, I'm not going to
celebrate a country that has laid people.

Speaker 2 (24:27):
It's going to be the fourth of July and Columbus
Day all mixed into one.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
On steroids, absolute steroids. And of course, because there's all
these big plans, which by the way, people act like
Trump's the one who thought up the big party. They
have been the there has been discussion and planning for
all sorts of things up in DC going back multiple presidencies.

(24:52):
Just I on the prize, Trump's just the one who
happens to be the closest coordinator and arguably the one
who probably won to be as grandiose party as possible,
hence a frickin auto race, an MMA event, and everything
else along with it. So you just you're gonna, I'm

(25:12):
gonna You're gonna have to figure out how to shield
yourself from those folks so that you can fully enjoy it,
fully embrace it, and yeah, let's learn about stuff. You
know how much I like history. Not all of it's good,
but like, there's so much. There's so much, even in
our comparably short amount of history compared to like European
nations and other places, there's so many things that are

(25:36):
that are among some of the most awesome factoids that
you'll probably never learn over the course of your life.
Because I'm constantly surprised I learned new stuff. I'm like,
that is so cool, man, or that's so awful, or
what it is? Ross was just learning about what actually
speaking of Mogadishu, the full backstory on black Hawk Down,

(25:56):
you want to talk about a dumpster fire of epic proportions.
That is a bonker story. Apparently there's a Netflix.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
Yeah, there's a documentary. Marque's on this war documentary kick,
which is fantastic.

Speaker 3 (26:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:09):
She started off with a nine to eleven one and
uh then we watched this one on Blackhawk Down and listen,
that happened during what term? Was that Clinton's first term
or second term? Either way. I was, you know, young,
and I was still in high school, and I really
wasn't paying it that much attention. But I kind of,
you know, I knew that something happened over there in Somaliamogadishu,
a helicopter went down. I know there's a movie about it,

(26:30):
but I didn't know a lot of.

Speaker 1 (26:31):
D ninety three.

Speaker 2 (26:33):
Yeah, so I was like freshman in high school, really
not paying attention. Uh so watch this documentary, glued to it.
I had no idea how screwed up that situation was. Yeah,
Oh my lord, yeah, yeah. The movie on every level,
like everything that could possibly go wrong went wrong, and
the fact that they survived that thing, oh my lord.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Yeah, what's crazy now I have to watch it. You
said that they were interviewing some of the Yeah.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Yeah, so they're interviewing people that were for from the
Rangers and also Delta Force. It's directed by Ridley Scott.
I think it's a few years old, but Sun Netflix,
and it goes back and forth. So and also it
interviews them, but it also shows the perspective of the
militia leaders and the people that were like in their
houses just chilling when the military forces were like, hey,

(27:24):
we need somewhere to hide out because everyone wants us dead.

Speaker 1 (27:28):
So all right, so they interviewed literally the people were
trying to kill them too.

Speaker 2 (27:31):
Yes, yeah, no, they interviewed the person I believe that
was there when the first RPG hit, the first helicopter.

Speaker 1 (27:39):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
The guy was like, oh I remember. It was the
greatest moment, happiest moment in my life.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
Just do the absolute savagery of the of the folks
on the ground there. You know. By the way, do
you know what the military operation was called? Here's a
This is a fun fact because it's what it is.
It is one of the I think, pretty cool military
operation names. So the Blacklow Down incident was part of
Gothic serpent, So I don't know thinks of military names

(28:11):
for that? Who gets to do that? Is it some guy?
The pentagon is just that as the president do it?
Sometimes do they let whoever the commander is for the operation? Like,
how do you how do you figure out what you're
gonna call these things? Because you know everything's got a name. Man,
I don't know the answer to that. Actually, the funny
I told you there's all this stuff you don't know,
and then then you have to you want to find out.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
And Mark he was like, how come you and know
we were over there? And I really didn't have a
good answer because once again I didn't know much about
it because of it was nineteen eighty three, And the
most I remember about that situation is the classic Phil
Hartman Bill Clinton skit on SNL where he's talking about
warlords in Somalia. Right, Oh, that's a great one.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:49):
Yeah. So they were in the middle of a civil
war and we were like, hey, we're gonna go give aid.

Speaker 1 (28:52):
No no, no, no, no, don't say we So the actually, UN,
the UN is the reason we were over there. That
was a UN operation, which you know, the US obviously
took part in. But that was their that was their
hair brained idea to go in there. Do they were
have I think famine this would start.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
Yeah, So we were just trying to go over there
and supply food and stuff. And every time we would
go over and bring aid or money or food, it
would be stolen by warlords.

Speaker 1 (29:18):
Warlords. Oh that is a great smol skit, isn't it
in the McDonald's. Yeah, so that, in turn is part Now, well,
I want to get this right, so I called up
a little cheat sheet here, all right. So, so US
Force has conducted what was called the Bloody Monday Raid,
killing many elders and prominent members of this clan, the

(29:41):
clan by the way, who was executing, sumarily executing, damn
everyone they get their hold their hands on, and stealing
all the food. And they had raided a weapons storage unit.
So it's not like they were just sitting around doing
clan stuff. Not that clan, this clan. But yeah, so
then because of the because of that's going on, that's

(30:02):
when Clinton launched Operation Gothic Serpent to try to capture
the head of this klan because now they're firing at
UN forces, including our forces, and that is it was
that incident when they were on this capture mission where
everything went sideways. Man, let's see here. Yeah, no battle

(30:26):
since the Vietnam War has killed so many US troops.
Casualties included eighteen dead American soldiers, seventy three wounded, and
then total if you go across all the nations, one
hundred and thirty three dead, seven hundred dead in the
UN coalition. So it was it was a lot nastier
business than what's even portrayed in that movie, just because

(30:47):
the movie could be nine hours long if you portrayed
everything that led up to it, yep, yep, yep. And
it also it also really tainted the UN wanting to
do things like really it's turned them in to the
wish bags they are today much more so. All right,
six point fifty here on the CaCO Day Radio program.
Back in just a few I'm going to talk about

(31:08):
Somalia and not play any of the Smalley Pirate songs
that we have. That is a dereliction of duty. So uh,
you are correct, sir, So here you go, yo yo.

Speaker 4 (31:22):
Hooy is Molly pirates late for me. We're hijacking ships
on now, are rich or teeth o still prove that.

Speaker 1 (31:28):
You know, after we sees.

Speaker 4 (31:30):
You go to Mogadishue where you will spend all of
our dome.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
Yo ho yo hoy.

Speaker 4 (31:36):
So Molly pirates late for me your resume launchers. We've
got rocket launchers.

Speaker 1 (31:40):
We'll ransom in. Don't you know the house.

Speaker 4 (31:42):
I live in is corna get it in now that
I have money too blow.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
So I do apologize and will not let it happen again.
And we'll just keep that up on the button bar,
because yeah, the whole Smali thing, she's coming up in
the news, all right, coming up on the show. This
will be a little over an hour from now as
mister Pete Callender will join us and Boyle Boyd. We
got some fun stuff to talk to about what's going

(32:11):
on in Charlotte. Their lunatic sheriff for making a notification.
Don't understand why this has become a trend the hours here,
the urban cowboy thing. And I'm not talking about the
fact that somebody on the show has already turned their
auto replies on, and that somebody's not me. We are

(32:32):
on vacation next week, so I don't it's not Gordon Dial.
We got another show is going to be filling in.
So but you're on notice. We didn't get fired unless
we did, and in which case, nice to know you,
but nope, that's VAK next week. You've been warned. There
you go. Okay, we are falling behind as a country

(32:56):
in the the insane number of letters that we pack
into the GBT thing. What are we at here in
the US l g B T Q I A plus
right or has that since expanded? And nobody sent me
notification that in and of itself is crazy because at
first it was LGB LGBT and then we get the
Q and the I and the A and the plus. Okay,

(33:18):
up in Canada, they are absolutely leaving us in the dust.
In fact, I'm of the opinion this now has to
include everybody, right, Listen, listen to this lunatic which, by
the way, I loved all the beams where they're like
new new Internet password drops, because holy hell, man.

Speaker 5 (33:36):
Deal with the ongoing genocide of m M I W
G two S l g B t Q q I
A plus.

Speaker 3 (33:42):
This is abhorrent.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
What how do you commit that to memory? I've listened
to this clip like fifteen times and I still and
port Ross had to type it in on the into
the system this morning. What did that take like an
hour when you're dubbing it in seven seconds, but when
you're typing it in one an hour? Probably? Right, it's done.
All the letters one more time if you if you
missed it.

Speaker 5 (34:06):
Deal with the ongoing genocide of M M I W
G two S l G B T q q I
A plus. This is abhorrent.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
Oh, but the other favorite meme is somebody and is
really well done. Somebody did fat jd vance as a
script skelet spelling bee student and it's the whole back
and forth with the moderator that's very well done. So
any who, we are, Yeah, they've got almost twice as
many letters as we do. And one I don't even

(34:36):
know what happened to. Two wasn't. Oh that's the two
that's the two s, the two spirits, right, that was
the one that I always had that was different. I
don't know what most of the other ones are, but
that's what they're up to in Canada. So uh, I
guess you know what, considering how we've absolutely vested them

(34:58):
in everything over the last year, including all their things too,
maybe we'll just let him have this one. Give them,
give them one w you don't you don't want to,
you don't wanna a winless season, because that's what happened
with all the hockey. So but uh yeah, yeah, that's fine,
all right, So back to this and we'll talk about

(35:18):
it with Pete. I'm actually contemplating whether I should share
the retweet the video because if if a if a
guy gets hit by a car, people will share that
all day. Unfortunately, in this case, what happened was a
horse gets hit by a car. Now they're saying the

(35:39):
horse is fine, but horses are tricky, man. Horses are
tricky because there's certain injuries that if they do suffer them,
that's it for said horse. Man. It's uh and and
and this is something Look, I've joked on this show.
It's it's kind of a joke, kind of not I
don't like horses, but the reason I'm like horses because

(36:01):
I had to take care of them right, And they're
finicky and their moody, and they'll even if you're riding them,
they'll try to brush you off by banging your leg
into a tree. And it's it's it's a lot, it's
a lot of work, especially when you have a lot
of horses, and more specifically, when your family and the
neighbor that you do work for buys wild horses and
then you and your buddies have to break them because

(36:22):
you're stupid. But you're getting paid ten dollars an hour cash,
so you'll get beat up like a like a rodeo
idiot because you know you're fifteen and you bounce.

Speaker 3 (36:33):
That.

Speaker 1 (36:33):
Being said, I have no patience for people who abuse
horses or do things that are dangerous to them, right,
and so when I see this this growing trend and
you see it's you, it's like at night and it's
in bar districts where a bunch of people decide that
now they're going to show up on horseback, which is

(36:54):
a terrible situation for a thousand reasons. One, it's really busy,
there's lots going on. The likelihood that your horse is
going to freak out is not It's not insignificant. And
trust me, the amount of things that I've literally been
on the back of a horse where horse freaks out,
where it's you know, it's it's lost, it's lost its

(37:17):
mind and you better hold on. Uh is. I can
make a list, it's why when you see horses and
parades they put blinders on them, right, Because it's just
it's sensory overload for horses. Secondly, they're they're not walking
these horses. I've seen them at a full gallop on
shod horses on pavement, which is I'm sorry, that's abuse.

(37:40):
In my opinion. It's not to say that you can't
walk a horse across pavement, but you have to understand
the traction for a horse that has shoes on on
on asphalt is minimal, and so the likelihood of the
horse slipping, even if it just starts losing its traction,
that cause the horse to buck you off. And in

(38:01):
this video, that's what happened. All right, here's the deal.
I am gonna retweet it. I'm just gonna let you
know because I want you to see this idiot who
gets bucked off his horse trying to do something stupid.
These people, these people shouldn't have horses if they're gonna
treat him like this. The horse then bucks the rider
takes off. If this is uptown Charlotte, it's night, everybody's

(38:23):
all around, and then runs right across through a red
light and gets smoked by a car. The horse gets
right up, so I am hoping that the horse is okay.
But I keep seeing videos of this stuff. It's by
the way, did you know in North Carolina you cannot
get a dui on a horse, but you can get
reckless driving or something, which I did not know. There's

(38:46):
a lot of a lot of states you can get
a you can get a dui on a horse. I
know somebody who got a duy on a horse. It
happened at the county fair and Rodeo in Johnson County, Wyoming.
But that guy was an idiot, so and he decided
he's going to go take the horse out of the
fairgrounds and just make the short little trip down to
where he lives. And it didn't work out for him.

(39:07):
All right, I just retweeted this, so go check Ross.
You haven't seen the video yet, go check that out
at Casey on the radio. But like I don't know,
I'm not necessarily opposed to people riding a horse into town,
but in this instance, taking him to a bar busy

(39:27):
bar district with a bunch of traffic and clearly you
don't know what you're doing because of the crap he's
trying to pull on this horse. I don't know if
he's trying to stand up or you be the judge
on this thing. But I haven't seen that. I haven't
seen that locally and Raleigh as it happened in Greensboro.
I don't know. But it's like it's it's like the

(39:49):
it's like the follow up to everybody riding ATVs and
dirt bikes with no plates down into stuff. Now they're
just doing it with horses, and I just don't understand it. Also,
where are you keeping the horses? That's the other thing.
If you, like, if you live in a very urban environment,
you know you normally you'd have to board a horse somewhere.
So I don't even know where the horses are coming.

Speaker 2 (40:08):
They got them down in the beach, right, you can
just go and take one. They're sort of like they're
like ducks at the park.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
Okay? Or no, what was it in New York where
the Haitians were stealing them and and or not? Was
it Haitians? It was some sort of voodoo thing right
where they were sacrificing geese. Remember we did that star.

Speaker 2 (40:27):
Oh yeah, But now I was just thinking of the
Alex Jones meme. Oh Okay, they don't want you to
know this, but you could take all the ducks at
the park or thee Ah, I've got two hundred and
fifty geese, a lot of geese. Man, the just go
down there to take a horse.

Speaker 1 (40:42):
Man.

Speaker 2 (40:42):
They're on the beach. Yeah, they love that, I do.

Speaker 1 (40:45):
You're I'm sorry. Remember the lady is she a professor
or what she was in Chapel Hill?

Speaker 6 (40:55):
Right?

Speaker 1 (40:55):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (40:55):
The lady who wasn't she the hurricane? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (40:58):
Right, yes, yeah, yeah, if you don't remember this. So
there's there's some lady who was really upset because the
hurricane was coming, and she was demanding that the state
of North Carolina go catch all the horses and then
bring them up to the fairgrounds in Raleigh to ride
out the hurricane. And people are like, you know that
those horses have been here for a minute, right, they

(41:19):
kind of like innately nowhere to go. And then lo
and behold what happens. Hurricane hits and you see the
horses instinctively knowing to get the higher ground. Horses are
very intelligent, That's what That's why I assigned some of
the negative parts of the horses to malice, because I'm
a horse knows what.

Speaker 2 (41:35):
Animals are like that in general, it's like a thing.
That's the way. When you see like the animals booking out,
you better be prepared for something.

Speaker 1 (41:40):
Except for pandas.

Speaker 2 (41:42):
The pandas are dumb. Yeah, they're all suicidals. So I've
got four text messages now from four different people that
are terrified that we're going on vacation because every time
we go on vacation, that's when the news happens. It's
like when the big stories break.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
Good lord, what more do you want? What's going on
right now?

Speaker 2 (41:58):
Well, yeah, that's why they're scared.

Speaker 1 (42:00):
But the only thing that was the end of days
like that would be that would be the elevation from here. Right.
We got we got craziness in a ran got uh,
we got you know, all the insanity clear that comes
with that. We got the thank god the shuttles covered.
The artemis is coming back today. Right. Oh no, you
turned your auto reply on, dude, that'll be on you.

(42:27):
I I can't believe it could get any worse from
a new side. I mean already busier for that matter,
but uh, yeah, that is fair. There is a bit
of a track record there, all right. Uh seven sixteen
here on the CaCO Day radio program. We're sitting here
talking about horses, and I got all this audio I
want to play, so let me get to it. Did

(42:47):
you see this lunatic out in California upset with the
wages they're paying essentially warehouse workers at this huge it's
eleven city blocks in size warehouse and the warehouse is
Kimberly Clark. You know, paper products, which is important because

(43:07):
some guy decided he was gonna film himself. Are sitting
it while running around, you know, making a video of it,
narrating it.

Speaker 3 (43:19):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (43:19):
And again it's eleven square city blocks full of paper products.
Sounds super flammable to me. And it was over the
fact that he doesn't feel he's getting paid enough. Should
have paid us enough to you know, we may not
get paid enough to live, but these rich's dirt cheat.

Speaker 2 (43:42):
All you had to do was pay us enough to live.
All you had to do was pay us enough cup live.

Speaker 1 (43:48):
I'm telling you, man, I I hate to tie this together. Thankfully,
nobody was injured or hurt, and they got the dude
because again he posted it how he posted to his account.
But you know what this is, It's like a lighter
version that's not a pun of this, this permission structure
that's been created to write where you can just go

(44:10):
out and you can go shoot a healthcare ceo in
the back and people cheer you on. People are already
fundraising for this guy, Ross. Are you shocked? Are you
shocked at they're fundraising for the legal defense of the
guy who burned the warehouse. You know how many people
out of jobs too, by the way, sure a lot.
So what would you rather have a wage that you
don't agree with or nothing?

Speaker 2 (44:30):
That was my first reaction to this, because you have
certain people that you know, you learn like they can't
picture things in their minds and color, or they can't
see things in their mind like, you know, can you
picture an apple in your head and spin it in
a circle. Some people can't do that. Other people can't
think two or three moves ahead, like they're incapable of it,
which is super weird to learn and find out, but
that is true. Some people cannot think multiple steps ahead.

(44:51):
This guy's like, oh, you know, we can't. You're not
paying us enough to live, so I'm going to burn
the place down. Then your coworkers no longer have a
place to.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
Work, right, And and it's not an insignificant number. I think
they have hundreds of employees that worked at this thing.
So uh yeah, but you may. But but why would
you think you could do that? And I'm telling you
it's because, like we've mainstreamed it into politics with the celebration,
with the active celebration of the you know, the guy
who shot the healthcare CEO and the permission structure to

(45:22):
go out and punch a Nazi and eat the rich
and all the rest of this, and it's like, that's
how you get here. You either have zero tolerance for
stuff like this, So people go, yeah, that probably shouldn't
do that because society will shun me.

Speaker 3 (45:38):
You know.

Speaker 1 (45:38):
Somebody somebody pointed out that when you get into the
far left, it's all about social acceptance. Almost nothing else matters.
And to be out of the out of the in group,
so to speak, is is something that most people will
not desire, will actively work against it. It's why people
fall in line with the you know, these messaging that
they don't even necessarily agree with, because they just they
need to be in that click. They're not independently minded.

(46:02):
So if you're not independently minded, and now your click's
telling you it's okay to do things like this, and
you got some beef. Now it's a lot easier, I think,
mentally to go ahead and get there and go, yeah,
you know what, what if I do? Burn that? That
whole thing down, And to your point, that's what's driving them,
so they're not even thinking about the after. Clearly that
guy didn't care if he get caught because it was

(46:24):
they immediately knew who it was because he posted under
his own name. It was no mystery. So with that
in mind, clearly he was not thinking ahead other than
to just in the moment, do this and consequences be damned.
But also he had to make a video and people
liked it, and people are gonna figure out ways to

(46:45):
fundraise for this guy. I'm not I don't even know
what he's facing. It's in California too, so who the
hell knows if you'll go to jail for more than
a minute. But just lunacy, all right? Seven twenty one.
Hang on, by the way, are you guys following what's
going on down in Australia or they have? So the
high the most decorated Australian military dude ever, I guess

(47:06):
is now facing murder charges for incidents dating back to
his time in Afghanistan. And there's a lot of moving
parts here, but what is so interesting is the way
this all got spun up. So this guy gets the
Victoria Cross, which is basically their their medal of honor,
and just a bunch of other stuff, and you know,
had a higher profile, and that irritated some activists who

(47:30):
have I kid you not, decided they were going to
go ahead and get them, and so they flew to
Afghanistans to find individuals who would essentially testify that he
did things like he's accused of kicking a village elder
off a cliff. And there's there's way too much to

(47:52):
get into right there, but basically he was They took
out a bunch of Australian soldiers, they killed it killed
three of them, I think, in an ambush, and he
was tasked with going into this village which was heavy
Taliban and trying to find the because they knew who
the one guy was, and everything went sideways in there.

(48:16):
Now the source and then of course you got activist prosecutors.
But the sources that they found are members of the
Taliban who were like, yeah, well, absolutely give you an
affidavit saying that he murdered this person in that way.
So that guy's on trial for his life out there.
And all of that was because a bunch of activists

(48:40):
from Australia went to Afghanistan to find terrorists to talk to.
So and again I don't know, I don't know what happened.
But also, are those of your best character witnesses to
prosecute a guy over literally the enemy? I guess in
Australia works out like that. Meanwhile, here in the US,

(49:02):
we have a guy in the Navy who was wearing
what's referred to as morale patch. Do you guys know
what these are? All right? So look, you know you
put patches all up on your uniform. These are not
official patches, and I'm sure they're probably technically not allowed.
I don't fully know. Maybe somebody in the military can
help me out here, but they're not in common. I've

(49:24):
seen these before too, and what they are is it's
humor usually right, and so is This is a riff
on the old recruiting posters from World War Two, and
it says join the US Navy, save the big booty Venezuelans.
And then it has a picture of a dude on
the beach. He's in a naval uniform, sitting in a
chair and you have you know, some smoke show latina

(49:47):
here with a tray full of drinks serving him. And
it's done in that old artistic style. And the only
reason that this came to light is because they there
is there was a bunch of photos that were pos
should have just you know, people in the Navy doing
navy stuff. And you just see a side shot of
this guy who's working on a piece of equipment, and

(50:08):
somebody saw it, and of course they got their their
tackles up, and then they remove the photo. And now
people are demanding they do something, and I guess the
sailor is getting called into whatever disciplinary action. And I'm like,
is it it? Really? Is this a good use of
everybody's time?

Speaker 3 (50:25):
Is this it?

Speaker 1 (50:25):
And and and so it gives me the same vibes
of what's going on in Australia. How common are these things?
By the way, I actually have one of these. It
was given to me by a member of the military.
So I'm like, that's cool. Here, you go ahead and
have one. I haven't a drawer and it's got a
little joke on it. But I kind of feel like
these they're called morale patches, and like, who's this hurting?

(50:48):
And also if you're gonna discipline this guy over a
morale patch with with a joke about you know, women's
hot hot women's butts, like, now you got to arrest
what sir? Mix a lot the remaining members of Queen
who did rump Shaker rosmurd that song? What was that

(51:08):
reckon Effects or whatever? I think it was the name
of the band. You gotta get the Bubba's Sparks that
Bubba Sparks song? Uh, Destiny's Child? Why are there so
many songs about butts? Who did the Who's Cisco? Right?
Does that count the Thong song? I guess it probably would.
I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy of the people who

(51:30):
are upset of this about this are people who probably
have danced to one of these songs.

Speaker 2 (51:36):
I am completely freaked out because you just named every
song on my butts playlist on my phone? Have you
been in my phone?

Speaker 3 (51:42):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (51:42):
Do you have Anakonda by Nicki minaj? I? Do another one? Right?
That's why are there so many. Oh, who's that? There's
a country song too? What is it? Odds? Is it
Tracey Adkins? Who? It's the Badonka doncs Have you ever
heard that there's a country song that?

Speaker 2 (51:59):
Yeah, that's my playlist. I'm oh not stop at.

Speaker 1 (52:04):
Is it? Oh? Man? I forgot about that song back
in the day. Yeah. Oh no, guy in the Navy's
got a military patch about big booty Venezuelans. Now, by
the way, it literally is. You know this is something
when we were staged off of Venezuela. There. You know this.
This is the gallowed humor that you see here, and
it's not even gallowed really. Those are just the songs

(52:28):
in English about Do you know how many songs in
like reggaetone are are featuredly prominently? Uh are prominently featuring
uh the singer's desire to get with you know, some
girl with a with a big round booty. But I
mean that's just bard and parcel of music today. So oh,
come on, now, we're not starting inter No, No, why

(52:56):
does everyone every time I do any story about any
answer the military, anybody from the other branches has to
get their their humor in at leap at least it's
big booty latinas. I see what you did there, and
it's technically it's Venezuelans. So you're not even accurate in
the joke that you're trying to make to insult people

(53:18):
in the Navy because you're in your army guy and
then now a Navy guy's going to do send me
an army joke. I will not participate in this. You
have to call in if you want to insult other branches.
But no, seriously, like, is this something people normally get
in trouble for. I'm just curious. I'm just curious, or
or for the most part, you know, the CEO just

(53:42):
looks the other way because whatever. You guys are out
here doing a job. Put your butt on the line.
If people want to have a little humor, it's not
it's not a big deal because it's not a formal situation.
Or is this some people actually get punished for. Maybe
you can help out eight eight eight nine three four
seven eight seven four shed a little light on on that,

(54:07):
all right, Now, this is this is a little more serious.
I don't know if you guys saw what happened, it's
not really but it involves But so I don't know
if you saw what happened. Uh, Ditty has filed an appeal. Yeah,
ooh buddy, ooh buddy. All right, so what possibly could
be the angle for Ditty's appeal over his h his sentence.

(54:34):
Diddy's lawyer now argues that the conviction should be thrown
out after after it's revealed that the freak Off parties
were actually amateur pornography shoots that are protected by the
First Amendment. So what differentiates somebody just hiring a prostitute,
because that's you know, or in this case, moving them

(54:56):
around and stuff. That's what kept amplifying it versus making pornography,
which both things happen in the state of Florida, but
are treated very differently. And a lot of it is planning, right,
You have to prove that you were planning. This wasn't
just you, you know, going down and grabbing some street walker.
This is you planning to make this film. And as

(55:19):
a result, that's what the lawyer is arguing arguing here
freak Offs and Hotel Knights were actually highly choreographed sexual
performances involving the use of costumes, role play, stage lighting,
and props. I'm assuming that's all the oil is the
props which were filmed so that Combs and his girlfriends

(55:40):
could watch and distribute the films later as a result.
Is this is under the Man Act? Did He's prosecution
is not? It gets into llegal ease here, but yeah,
they're arguing that no, man, that was, Oh that wasn't.
That wasn't just a party that was that was a
film production. Get prosecutors for a film production. The team

(56:04):
argues that the fifty month sentence is out of line
and admits that because they may not have had some
of the proper permitting and record keeping that was necessary
when you do produce at all films that did he
would only be liable for up to fifteen months, and
he has already served nineteen months, so he should be
let out of prison. So good luck with all that,

(56:25):
I guess, I don't know. Also, good luck with your
weather raced agic from the weather Channel and you get
one last one in on a Friday like that?

Speaker 7 (56:36):
How you yes doing it right?

Speaker 3 (56:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (56:38):
Good luck with trying to find a rain drop around
here for oh gosh, seven ten days.

Speaker 1 (56:45):
Maybe longer.

Speaker 7 (56:46):
Okay, The drought will continue to get worse, Temperatures will
continue to go up, and we may have next week
multiple days in a row ninety plus, so some early
summertime heat coming in too. So today will probably be
the best when you go from this morning, where's nice
and cool out to this afternoon when we're in the
mid number seventies. Probably going to be one of the
more comfortable days as low eighties will return tomorrow and

(57:09):
again on Sunday. Overnight lows will be in the fifties,
and then we'll go low to mid eighties Monday and
then Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. The Triangle especially got a shot
at be ninety or above. We may stay in the
upper eighties in the Triad, but either way hot. I
don't know about humidity. It might just be hot and
dry with very little humidity and very little if any
chance of rain even beyond Thursday. So hunker down, gang.

(57:33):
It's going to be good for outdoor plans if you
got things going on. This weekend might be a good
day or a good weekend for the lake and maybe
the Lynx. The weather's going to stay great at Augusta, KC.
Nothing's changing there. But spend an awful lot of time
talking about nothing. But the truth is this is a
lot of concern out there right now, not only for

(57:54):
the drought, but for the fire conditions too, and I
don't see any changes anytime soon.

Speaker 1 (57:58):
Do you watch any of the golf? Yes? Today I
did not.

Speaker 7 (58:02):
I am not really a not really huge Yeah, I know,
I know.

Speaker 1 (58:07):
So I want you to imagine this. There's one of
the guys is Scottish and he he double dunks, his
double drinks his his shot just melts down on this hole.
Watching a dude in a Scottish accent flip off a
golf ball underwater while yelling anything really in the Scottish
accent is what TV? Who?

Speaker 7 (58:28):
Who was I heard? Somebody got their phone got kicked
out because they had their phone.

Speaker 1 (58:32):
Who was that? Mark Calkovecia. He was not playing, but
he had there for another Yeah. They don't. They do
not mess around. They do. They Harley Rhymer out years
ago and Rhymer started crying. He started crying. He was there, Yeah,
he was doing radio for Westwood one and they just
threw him out. So he was like, but he started crying. Yeah,

(58:55):
they do. They don't even they don't even tell you really.
They just send two big dudes and like you're leaving
now now, goodness, A lot of rules there, you know,
the socks to the dinner. They have a bunch of.

Speaker 7 (59:06):
Weird really there, Yeah, I guess so not for make.

Speaker 1 (59:10):
You we'll talk to Yeah, that's a lot of people
don't know that. If you can't, it's a it's a
violation to where socks to the big bastard's dinner. I
have no idea. Why so you have to help me
out there anyway? Seven forty seven, Hang on, guess what
a A one of the congressional Democrat congressional candidates has
a rather interesting little uh little little idea I guess

(59:35):
uh for for her platform. Check this out.

Speaker 8 (59:37):
This is all over and Trump is gone and Democrats
are back in charge, and we're rebuilding everything. The punishment
for MAGA for voting Trump three times needs to be
that they lose their internet access for four years, that
they cannot post videos or comments on social media for

(59:58):
four straight years, so that none of us are subjected
to their lives and misinformation while we are rebuilding the
chaos that they cause the whole world and America gets
to be without their bs online.

Speaker 1 (01:00:16):
Okay, I can't with you anymore. This is She's a Michigan.
So what you're saying is, and you are saying it,
I'm just going to put it in other words so
that we truly understand. What you're saying is that you
want to strip half the population of their First Amendment rights.
That's a that's a wild admission. That's a wild admission
right there. You want you want to essentially cancel First

(01:00:39):
Amendment protection for all of your political opponents. That because
that is what you said. I know you said it
in different words, but that's the thing you said. So
you know, just be honest about what it is you're
looking for. That's all I'll say. Hey, this is interesting.
I just saw this. So going back to two and

(01:01:01):
twenty one, Disney jumped on the woke train for the
training and specifically for cast members within their parks. Actually,
I think this probably extends to their stores too. Yes, yes, yes,
it does anywhere. They got to cast members. And what
they did, if you remember, because we talked about on
the show, is they forbid the cast members from using

(01:01:25):
gendered language. And as a result, like they had to
change thing like you couldn't say ladies and gentlemen anymore,
you could say everyone. And then specifically, when they talked
to individuals, they were instructed to refer to you as friend. Yeah,
hold on, I got the whole list here. Yes, but

(01:01:46):
basically it was creeping people out. Man, So a cast
member referred to you as friend. And by the way,
they could also not say sir or ma'am. And people
notice this stuff, right, Yeah, so they instruct employe used
to use the phrase hello friends or hello everyone, and
again we're forbidden from using gendered language. Well people noticed,

(01:02:07):
people notice that. People complained. They said it was very
weird to be greeted by somebody a hello friend, and
you know why, because it is weird. It's like, uh,
it also reminds me of No Country for old men
Ross now that I think about it, may call everyone
friendo and then he kill you with with the thing
he killed cows with. But people notice that. Do you

(01:02:30):
get irritated when somebody calls you chief for sport? I
know it's that bugs some people. I don't really care,
but but yeah, that's what it feels like. And now
Disney says they're going back because again they were weird
and people out, which is interesting, right because of you know,
all the wokeness surrounding Disney stories that we've had. They've

(01:02:52):
just decided, all right, we gotta, we gotta, we gotta
back up on that. So yeah, they sent a new
instructions from so now they can actually use gendered language.
They can say welcome ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, right,
which they couldn't for almost five years. But Disney is
bringing it back, And I don't know, is that a

(01:03:13):
sign the earth is healing? Maybe? But also I'm preparing
myself for the activist video where they go and get
misgendered and then and try to force the issue like that.
Remember the the dude who goes into the women's bathrooms
at Disney and filmed inside all of them. He's his
whole stick is to go to restaurants and try to

(01:03:34):
force them to misgender him because he goes and you know,
he's dressed as a woman, but he also doesn't he
barely leans into it. So I kind of think like
he's trolling for these reactions both the whole thing and
then then he filmed in the bathrooms. I know he's
a big golf fan, big golf fan, mister Pete Callender

(01:03:56):
middays WBT, he is watching the Master closely. How you doing, sir?

Speaker 3 (01:04:02):
I am doing well. How are you doing, sir?

Speaker 1 (01:04:05):
Are you a golf I just made that up. I
don't even know if you like golf or watch the Masters?
So are you watch? All right? Well, that's it's a
good thing already. Have a gazillion other topics because like
some of your politicians think they don't even have to
wear pants down there, and idiots are riding horses around
uptown uh where?

Speaker 3 (01:04:23):
Yeah, I don't know. I yeah, I don't even know
what is going on here.

Speaker 1 (01:04:29):
I'm not sure, so so help me out here. The
the the urban cowboy horse thing. I see this like
all over now, like this is a it's actually a
probmin Atlanta. Apparently I did not realize it had come
to the Queen City there. You saw the video these
It's the worst place. It's the worst place to ride
a horse, horse with with there's too much stimul stimuli.

(01:04:53):
Horses don't do well usually, and especially when you try
to stand up on the saddle like you're a trick
you know, a trick rider from back in the Antioakly days.
And then you get dumped and then the horse runs
through an intersection, gets smoked by a car. Is there
not laws against this in Charlotte? Or is this some
of you guys are discussing? Because it makes me angry
if somebody grew up with horses even to see people

(01:05:14):
running shod horses on pavement because they have no traction
and can get.

Speaker 3 (01:05:18):
Yeah, it was very bad, isn't Like where are all
of the people that you know, protest the carriages the
horse drowng carriages through right uptown? You know, like, where
are all those people there are? Now? There are actually
laws on the books apparently, which I was not up
to speed on until this incident occurred. And the reason

(01:05:41):
why everybody became aware of it was because, of course,
there was a video that was shot by what seems
to be you know, somebody who was who maybe you know,
part of the group or whatever. I'm not sure, but yeah,
like the it's like the guys riding motorcycles in you know,
the center, idiot. Yeah, And we've had problems like this

(01:06:03):
for years and years ever since you know, uptown became
revitalized twenty years ago. You know, it became this cruising
zone and people you know, driving their cars or their
bicycles or their motorcycles through uptown with music blaring and
you know, just making fools of themselves and annoying everybody
and jamming up traffic and all of this. And so

(01:06:25):
I guess this is a new thing, now, Is this
a new trend, a social media trend where people take
horses into the city and you know, stand up on
them or whatever. But there are apparently laws against certain
types of horse riding activities. Really if you don't yeah,
if you yeah, apparently if you don't have an if

(01:06:49):
you have an unhaltered horse, then then it is illegal
for that horse to be on the streets. So you
can't be like driving horses through, uh through this center city, right,
But these horses did have falters, they had the saddles
and all that, so yes, yeah, so they don't appear

(01:07:10):
to be in violation of that. But there is a
code that makes it illegal to recklessly or carelessly ride
or drive an animal through any street, alley or highway.
Now they may, I mean, I don't know what the
what the penalty is for that. But I think the
real problem is that when the cops showed up, according

(01:07:31):
to the police report, they became very irate and started
screaming and cussing in the street, and then they both
resisted arrest.

Speaker 1 (01:07:39):
So I think that that's what happened in Atlanta. In Atlanta,
there was an incident and they were screaming racism because
all the people on the horses were black, and of
course since the police showed up, uh, and they showed
up for a fistfight, they didn't even show up for
the horse thing. And then the horse thing became a thing,
and then it turned into you all being racist. There's
a video if people want to find it. But I'm
just like, what, what what are we doing here? But

(01:08:01):
you give me a brilliant idea Pete, because I know
how to drive cattle. It's a still set that I have.
Just Okay, you know, I we should we should drive
cattle through uptown.

Speaker 3 (01:08:11):
We're gonna have to put saddles on them so we're
not in violation of the ordinance.

Speaker 1 (01:08:16):
Well, I'll let you try to halter u cattle.

Speaker 3 (01:08:19):
But that's here, man.

Speaker 1 (01:08:23):
We're gonna need about eight guys, but we can make
this happen.

Speaker 3 (01:08:28):
I've never I've never done that, so I'll volunteer to
shoot the viral video.

Speaker 1 (01:08:34):
Okay, all right, very good? I do appreciate it. I
got to move on to a few other things because
there's a lot going on. Uh, I think Ross and
formed you we're not here next week, which is great
news for you because there is a there is an
urban legend that every time we take time off, the
world explodes. And I'm like, really, the only way it
could get worse would be what end of days? I
don't know, so it should be a big tune in

(01:08:56):
a week for you. But the.

Speaker 3 (01:09:03):
About the pants list mayor, Oh yeah, that's right.

Speaker 1 (01:09:05):
I'm sorry. I got distracted because there was something else
to trying to think of, all right, So explain this
to me. So this is what the mayor of Mooresville, right,
he was run around in the in the city hall
at night with a with a lady friend. Uh yep,
and he didn't have pants on. But it's all a
misunderstanding because he he got sick on his pants and
they went there and and blah blah blah. Uh what
is going on with that man?

Speaker 3 (01:09:27):
So apparently his story is that he and a bunch
of other like city officials and you know vocal I
don't know, elites or whatever, there was a party of
some kind they were out of a restaurant or a
bar or something, and he had had some drinks. He
had some wine, and then he realized on his way home,

(01:09:47):
I assume with this woman they that he needed his
work phone. He had left his work phone at the
office at city Hall, so he had to stop off
and pick up the phone. And while there, the wine
that he had ingested interacted negatively with some prescription medication

(01:10:08):
that he was taking for something, and that made him
feel ill. He got sick. He got it on his pants,
so he took his pants off so he could clean them,
and then that's why he was walking around pantsless, which
was captured on video. Now, people who work for the
city who saw the video then got fired. There were

(01:10:30):
two of them, and they apparently have now filed lawsuits.
And you know, they say that they were fired because
they saw the video and this was retribution, right, So
they were like whistleblowers, right. So the other day this week,
the Moorsville Town Commission met and they took a vote

(01:10:51):
of no confidence in the mayor and called for him
to resign, and he said he will not be doing that.
He then also said that he has since gone to
three weeks of rehab, and he apparently had alcohol abuse issues.
He really loved vodka, he said, and so but now

(01:11:11):
he's feeling great and he's off of the booze, and
so that's all fine and good.

Speaker 1 (01:11:15):
Now.

Speaker 3 (01:11:15):
So I'm not sure why that booze would not have
interacted with his medication either, But I don't Yeah, I
don't know. Nobody really knows at this point. Now, the
local TV stations have sued to try to get the video,
and that's being fought in court by the city saying
that it's part of an investigation and there's security details

(01:11:37):
like if you know where the cameras are, that may
be a security weakness that gets highlighted and people would
then be able to break into city Hall, I guess,
and run around pantilists.

Speaker 1 (01:11:48):
Okay, so it's not him just going hey, you want
to go hook up in city hall. It's a rude
gold It's a Rube Goldberg of unfortunate coincidences that okay, all.

Speaker 3 (01:12:01):
Right, right, And and that's the thing is, like the
story is not believable, you know it It's just it
does it doesn't sound believable, like it probably is something
more than just Oh, I had to get my work phone.

Speaker 1 (01:12:17):
I mean, it wouldn't be the first time the Shenanigans
in the does he it? Does the mayor have an
office in city hall apparently? So yes, Yeah, Well I'm
just saying he's probably at the first mayor to go, hey,
you know what, we should go hook up my office.
If in fact that's what happened, I don't know, maybe
it is.

Speaker 3 (01:12:35):
Yeah, and there's been no explanation as to why she
was there.

Speaker 1 (01:12:40):
You know, well they were they were just you know,
they happened to be leaving the event together, is what
I read.

Speaker 3 (01:12:45):
So carpooling, Yeah, they were carpooling.

Speaker 1 (01:12:47):
Maybe it was. It's green. It's much greener though. Yeah.
All right, so we we haven't had a chance to
talk since the pilot rescure or have we or the weapons?

Speaker 3 (01:12:57):
Yes, yeah, I think so because that Oh no, no,
it happened over the Easter weekend. Yes, so we haven't.

Speaker 1 (01:13:03):
We got it so like a month ago, I know, right,
and I'm trying to remember. But like it's dude, just
watching the reaction to that, it's just a couple of
things because we can't cover all of it. Watching the
reaction to that, the way that they're trying to position
it as some sort of failure. I'm sorry. Between that
and what happened in Venezuela, what an awesome time to

(01:13:23):
be watching what our military is capable of. And it
raises the question, And I've asked every guest this this week,
including elected officials, how the hell is a hotel guy
and a Fox News host able to execute the bad
astery that we've seen. If we have these technical capabilities,
which I believe that we do, we're the most powerful

(01:13:44):
ones in the world and it preceded them. How poorly
and inefficiently have previous leaders utilized our military since basically
World War Two? Like what a shark contrast? Man?

Speaker 3 (01:13:56):
Yeah, And it calls into question like the leadership ranks
in the military for the last forty years that did
not seem to be able to harness this kind of power,
and the political leadership as well that maybe was unwilling
to utilize it in the way that it's now being utilized.
You know, people gave Pete Hegseth all of this grief

(01:14:19):
when he was like, you know, we're going to refocus
to what our mission is, which is lethality, right right,
And everybody was like oh, look at this box host.
He doesn't know what he's doing. He's probably drunk and
all of this. But what better person than a war
fighter because that's what he was. Before people always dismissed
his credentials, but I mean the guy served he was.
I think he's also a lawyer, I believe, but like

(01:14:42):
he has served. He knows this this world, and he
knows what the troops can do because he was one
of them and he was.

Speaker 1 (01:14:49):
He makes me one pollar too for part of it.
He wasn't just some guy in a warehouse, you know,
office back on one of our bases, like he was
out there, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:14:57):
With kicking doors in. He was first through the door
or leading, uh, leading his comrades like he like there
were stories from people who served with him that said,
you know he would he would take point because he
would not ask anybody to do things that he would
not do himself. And so yeah, so when I see
the reaction and everybody's like, uh, you know, complaining about
this thing, and it's like, guys, like this is a

(01:15:19):
like a profound moment. The message we just sent, that
that the military just sent to all of the adversaries,
like like we can completely come into your country and
do what we want to do and leave, and that
should give every adversary pause.

Speaker 1 (01:15:34):
Or or we'll come in and steal your president from
a base with something called a discombobulator. And then now
we find out we have something called a ghost murmur which,
by the way, every time I see one of these
tools where they're like, oh, we can your your heartbeats
a fingerprint, we can find you wherever you are, I'm
equal parts like that's so cool, and also I'm like,

(01:15:54):
I don't know if I like the CIA have in that,
because you know big.

Speaker 3 (01:15:57):
Bright, Yeah that was I was torn as well. But yeah,
I mean like from a technological standpoint, that is awesome.
And again it sends a message like we can literally
find you anywhere based on your heartbeat, so like you
can dit your phone, you can go underground and all
this other stuff, but we will know where you are
because of this. I don't even know it's like telemetry

(01:16:20):
or whatever. I don't I don't even know the technology,
but it's pretty amazing.

Speaker 1 (01:16:24):
Yeah. And uh, and and if you think that they haven't,
they're not sitting around over at the UN mapping world
leaders heart beats. I mean just I'm serious. You want
to get you want to get a registry of this
or bad guy's heart beats? I mean, think about it.
That's the practical application of it. You got it. I
got a little list of all right, here's this, this
guy's this terrorist heart beat, this one, this one, and

(01:16:45):
you know you're on notice, you're on notice. And then
and then the story too, of the leaker. I want
to run this by you because you and I we
we host radio shows now, but you and I have
both served in reporter capacities, which is different. It is different.
Commentator and reporter are different, or at least they're supposed
to be. So when I hear him talking about somebody

(01:17:07):
leaked information to the media, and then the media basically
by reporting it, let Iran know that, in fact, no,
we haven't got that guy yet and he's not necessarily
moving in this convoy for a maritime extract, which is
the story the CIA sold. Remember they put a bounty
on this, and you had people that were IRGC, you

(01:17:30):
had just bounty hunters that were all looking for this guy.
And then we had to set up predator drones to
turn people to miss the guy within three kilometers. Does
this violate the line where you think if they don't
give up their sources there should be penalties or do
you think it's still protected under the First Amendment.

Speaker 3 (01:17:47):
From the leaker standpoint.

Speaker 1 (01:17:49):
No, No, they're host, the host, the reporter, and the
editor who made the decision to run that information.

Speaker 3 (01:17:55):
So, like me, personally, my ethical standard would be there's
a guy missing on the ground, and if the military says, hey,
do not publish this information, I do not. That's me
because I don't want to get some American service member killed,
you know, and that would be a huge win for
Iran because I'm I consider myself an American first, So

(01:18:18):
like I would not try to jeopardize that mission. So
for me, I would not have run the story at
that time. You can tell it afterwards. So then the
question is do you give up the source? Right? And
if you don't, then you're going to be tossed in
jail for contempt until you do turn And that's a
question every reporter has to wrestle with, Right do you

(01:18:40):
give up the source? That's going to be up to
that reporter. Me personally, I wouldn't have run the story,
so I wouldn't be put in that position to have
to then decide whether or not to stay in jail. Now,
the reporter, if they stay in jail, that's going to
be a boon to all sorts of aspects of their
career because they will be a person who went to

(01:19:01):
jail in order to protect a source, and that will
probably prompt more people to give them weaked information.

Speaker 1 (01:19:08):
Yeah, and I would horse trade with it. And you
probably know what I'm referring to. Let me explain it.
So I would go and I would say, hey, I
got this thing. I'd call the Pentagon or whatever whoever
whoever I was trying to get to confirm or tonight,
and I called it and to be like, hey, can
you not run that, because if you run that, you
could be putting this person in danger. And I say, okay,
I'll hold it. But when you capture the when you

(01:19:31):
get this guy, you I interview you first. That would
not be uncommon, right, Yeah, are.

Speaker 3 (01:19:38):
You trying to leverage it for a different story or
you know, well give me something else, you know you'd
be ye try to yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:19:43):
Yeah, let me talk to the guy after he's rescued
and better something something along those lines. All right, we're
gonna have to leave it there. I wanted to play
some mcfadd and grant audio. I know you're what it is,
but gosh, yeah, yeah, I know it.

Speaker 3 (01:19:57):
That's why I was kind of bittersweet on the election night.
I get more years of content.

Speaker 1 (01:20:01):
Yeah all right, well, all hell's gonna break loose next week.
If history holds, we'll talk to you a couple of weeks.
Have a good one, mister Callender.

Speaker 3 (01:20:10):
I'll see you then.

Speaker 1 (01:20:11):
Yeah, all right, well, you know fingers crossed, that's uh
we you know, we love chatting with him. All right.
It is eight twenty three. Back in just a few
kind of fell down the rabbit hole yesterday. Do you
guys know about the Chimp civil war going on in
one of the national parks over in Africa? Yeah? Yeah,
this is and scientists obviously are like super interested in

(01:20:35):
this because it's not normal for because they'd all been
living in peace in in this park. What is the
name of this park? It's in Uganda. Well, anyway, it
doesn't matter. They've been living in this park. I don't
know why it's not in this story I had in
the other story. Live in this park peacefully, everything's fine,

(01:20:58):
you know. One hundreds of these chimpanzees, and then something happened.
Something happened a few years ago, and you know, the
scientists are observing this and they start seeing behavior they'd
never seen before. First and foremost mostly chimps, with the
exception of really territorial stuff or if you're dealing with babies,
they don't tend to attack each other, let alone in

(01:21:20):
coordinated attacks. And so you had this population that's separated,
and they separated almost evenly, so you got hundreds over here,
hundreds over there, and all of a sudden, they started
launching large scale attacks at each other's brutal stuff. They're
described as the Western chimpanzees, and now the Central chimpanzees
are the two War infections, and they're liking in it

(01:21:43):
to a civil war because it is and it keeps escalating.
So initially you just have the males, and when I
say it's coordinated, I mean they're showing up in grow
in groups equal numbers and then just going at each
other like like it's a gettysburg Man. But then it
started getting much more escalated. So one of the groups,

(01:22:07):
the Western chimpanzees, who initially were the smaller force, got
more Gorilla and they would conduct raids going in and
snatching baby chimpanzees and killing them from the mothers of
the Central chimpanzees, and then the Central chimpanzees they then
decided to start being much more gruesome, like finishing their opponents.

(01:22:30):
And one of the ways in which they do it
is they ripped off their berries in the Twigg and
Berryes scenario, which obviously, you know, you probably get to
die because blood loss, and it just keeps going on
and on and going back and forth. There's a lot
of dead chimpanzees, and it's now escalated to a point

(01:22:52):
where you know, clearly it's making the news out there.
But it's pretty wild. So if there's videos of a
lot of this stuff too, if I guess, if you
want to look at stuff like that, but it's just
very it's behavior that they just haven't seen before. Usually
the chimpanzees will get into fights with the bonobos. I

(01:23:12):
guess which those are the ones with the red butt, right,
Those things never sat right with me, but not inter
Chimp Civil War. So check it out. Wall Street Journal,
New York Times, NBC News has a big article on
it this morning. So it's pretty fascinating. Stuff, although I'm
a little uncomfortable with the just look, chimpanzees are in

(01:23:36):
the upper echelon of intelligence within animals. I understand that,
but they're still animals. And so then you have people
that are like, well, what can we learn as it
pertains the civil war for humans? And it's like, I,
I guess, innately you could talk about being territorial, which
is a characteristic to both humans and in most animals

(01:24:01):
assigned to but I don't know that I'd read that
deeply into it personally. This may just be a territorial thing.
And you know they have groups, and now you just
got two form groups. But it is quite the rabbit hole.
It is. The amount of AI videos that surrounding it, though,

(01:24:23):
are disheartening. I'm just gonna let you know a lot
of people are mocking up AI videos, but there are
real ones from real scientists that they posted up there.
But I warned you some of them are pretty graphic.
All right, what's going on with Hunter Biden man? So
I don't know if you saw this. So this lunatic
is apparently not just broke. He is fifteen million dollars

(01:24:47):
in debt and there was one thing he because he
posted a video and he's challenging Trump's sons Don and
Eric to a cage match. I guess he wants to
fight them now, this lunatic man. But my favorite part
of it is he said that, you know, friends, former
friends and colleagues have now pulled away from him. Yeah,

(01:25:11):
like I don't. He can't figure out why nobody wants
to give him money for doing nothing? Is really how
I read this. And it's like I wonder, I wonder
what may have changed? Where where all of a sudden,
some random corporation in China or Ukraine or where was it?
Uzbekistan doesn't want to just give you a million dollars

(01:25:33):
to sit on a board. It's a mystery which we
may never figure out. But also, how are you fifteen
million dollars in debt? I mean, I understand that clearly
there was some legal fees going on with all the
you know, the gun case and everything, but there's no
way that's fifteen million dollars. Plus you didn't even pay
for the house in Malibu you were living in. According

(01:25:55):
to the owner, he's still never been paid that they
were running. And then you sold your artwork for a
lot of money, So where's that all going? I don't know.
And I also does he want is he tried to
make money by wanting to fight Don and Eric in
a cage? Now do you have to fight them both
at the same time? And then all of a sudden,

(01:26:18):
Baron comes in with a chair like, I don't even
know what you're proposing. Let's see. So he has judgments
against him from now his lawyers. So the lawyer is
the firm that representative. He hasn't even paid them, and
then they filed. But that's that's not all fifteen million.

(01:26:41):
That's crazy. Yeah, it's almost as if that was not
about you, it's about your dad. Just a theory I'm
working with, all right. I don't want to rob you
of this audio, even though Pete and I didn't get
a chance to get to it. So remember this is
the sheriff that doesn't didn't know the three branches of
government down there in Charlott, and then people in Charlotte

(01:27:01):
just re elected him because of course here he is
trying to deflect criticism over some grants, right, and for
things that people feel are kind of stupid. And now
we find out he doesn't really understand how grant money
works either.

Speaker 7 (01:27:18):
What about some people who.

Speaker 4 (01:27:19):
Are saying, as a taxpayer, I don't want this money
going for some community.

Speaker 1 (01:27:25):
Well, guess what we can tell the taxpayers this is
not their money. That's what people said. What he came
from a grant. Well, this is what I believe is
going to be good. Yeah, Ross, could you real quickly
look up and see where grants come from the check
that out real quick?

Speaker 2 (01:27:40):
Yeah sure, let me check. Oh the American taxpayer.

Speaker 1 (01:27:43):
Oh so he doesn't know the branches of government and
he doesn't know that grants being given by government organizations,
by the way, point that out are in fact taxpayer money, right,
because we're not talking about a grant that he got
from a nonprofit or whatever. These are. These are grant
programs that work for the government. I good luck, man,

(01:28:05):
good luck down in uh in the Queen City for
all you Charlatan's down there, man, And they're real quick.
I wanted to play this. This is diabolical. So but
this shows you really the mindset of markway Mullen under DHS. Now,
so as you know, you get into these these sanctuary
cities and they they will they refuse to cooperate, participate

(01:28:29):
and actively I would argue obstruct law enforcement's ability in
the on the immigration front, right, we've seen it all over. However,
there is one and they don't want to fund DHS.
I would point that out as well on the left.
But there are one. There is one place where they
love the DHS, and that is their giant international airports
for the purpose of customs. Right, clear customs. You come

(01:28:52):
into the country, you gotta clear customs, and you know
you gotta fly to an airport that's got customs to
do it. So listen to what Mark Wayne is proposing to.

Speaker 6 (01:29:01):
Keep your state as safe as my state.

Speaker 9 (01:29:05):
You know, the issue here is that you have states
and cities that are sanctuary states and cities. And that's
part of the issue. It's part of the problem. We
sow it in Minnesota. How do you get around.

Speaker 6 (01:29:15):
That, Well, I believe sanctuary cities it is not lawful.

Speaker 1 (01:29:20):
I don't.

Speaker 6 (01:29:20):
I don't think they're able to do that. And so
we're going to take a hard look at this. This
one area we may take a hard look at is
some of these some of these cities have international airports.
If there are sanctuary cities, should they really be processing
customs into their city seriously, if they're a sanctuary city

(01:29:42):
and they're receiving international flights and we're asking them to
partner with us at the airport, but once they walk
out of the airport, they're not going to enforce immigration policy.
Maybe we need to have a really hard look at
that because we need to focus on cities that want
to work with us.

Speaker 9 (01:29:58):
So you're saying that big cities or sanctuary cities that
have a big airport, they might lose their customers.

Speaker 6 (01:30:04):
Well, I'm saying we're gonna have to start prioritizing things
at some point right now. Remember the Democrats are wanting
to defund custom border patrol, all.

Speaker 1 (01:30:10):
Right, so you get the gist of it there. Yeah,
that would be devastating to a sanctuary city if you
cannot fly in international people, people with Los A LAX,
Chicago's airports. You know, the list goes on. If and
he's talking about reprioritizing resources, saying all right, well, if
you don't want to fund them, then we're going to
have to figure out how to you know, cut cut

(01:30:32):
the fat. Maybe the fat gets moved over to places
where they can actually accomplish things. So that'll be an
interesting watch all right race stage. Here he's watching the
doppler and it's not doing nothing. Nope, sitting there.

Speaker 7 (01:30:46):
Good time for doppler repair maintenance. I'm not going to
beat it for a while. Probably won't get to eighty today,
but certainly into the weekend we'll get there. And into
the week next week could see some ninety degree and
maybe several of them, especially around the triangle. So today's
probably the best in terms of comfort. Mid upper seventies,

(01:31:08):
probably fall into the upper forties, little bit fifties tonight
that heis, will be in the eighty degree range tomorrow
on either side of eighty, depending on where you are.
Upper seventies to low eighties across the region, and we'll
probably be out our above eighty on Sunday. No rain,
lots of sunshine, might see a few clouds. Other than that,
it stays dry even next week. Case gonna be great
for outdoor weather, outdoor things, but we're gonna warm up

(01:31:31):
well into the eighties and then by Tuesday, Wednesday and
beyond that we could see some ninety degree days. But
even beyond seven to ten days, I still don't see
much hope for any rainfall, all right, because.

Speaker 1 (01:31:42):
You gotta do that, and then you can't ruin our
vac next week. So nope, enjoy it. Enjoy it all right, man.
We'll talk to you well mon next Monday and the
monday after. Okay, okay, sounds good. We'll come back in
just a moment with Bloomberg News. Hang on, niece, what's happening.

Speaker 10 (01:31:58):
Just a lot going on. The White House is warning
staffers now about making trades and betting on inside information.
The White House has sent an internal staff wide email
casey warning employees against using confidential information to place trades
on financial markets and event betting platforms. And this all
comes after a whole series of well timed and profitable

(01:32:19):
bets raised questions about potential insider trading around President Trump's
decision on military maneuvers in Iran and also in Venezuela.
Calls are increasing inside Congress meantime for investigations into poly Market,
after AP reported at least fifty new poly market accounts
placed huge bets on US eron seas fires just hours

(01:32:42):
before President Trump announced that ceasefire on social media. The
accounts had never bet on polymarket before, and this isn't
the first time such well time bets Curd. Harvard researchers
say almost one hundred and fifty million dollars in profits
on polymarket may have been made by individuals with insider
and information. You know, how gas prices is really hurting

(01:33:04):
everybody's personal budget. Well, pawn shops now are flashing warning
signs about the economy. Pawn shop owners across the USA
they've seen an increase in demand for loans in the
past month or so. That's an early sign really of
just how punishing higher gas prices are for some Americans.
And this is a kind of soft data that makes
it into government data later on, but not right away.

(01:33:27):
So that's something that investors ought to watch for if
you're looking to save money wherever you are Nationwide. Consumer
reports in USA today say there are a lot of
places to shop that are cheaper than Walmart, including Costco, BJS,
Little or Little As some say, you have any of
those anywhere you are traveling. Also all the hb if
you've heard of those, they're all cheaper for groceries and

(01:33:50):
other things than Walmart. Speaking of rising prices, we've got
some inflation data just out. It's not great, but not horrible.
CPI Consumer price in rising nine tenths of a percent
in March after rising three tenths of a percent in February.
A lot of this data was in line that has
stock futures kind of mixed out. Futures are down but
just by ten, and we did have two days of gains.

(01:34:13):
SMP futures up eight, Nasdaq futures up fifty six. And
Taco Bell is making kind of a strange change. It's
veering away from tacos. They're about to offer Diablo dusted
crispy chicken nuggets and also that could flavor hot sauce.
They're merging that into kind of a powder dust sprinkled
on these nuggets. Starting next week, they'll have two buckets,

(01:34:36):
one for four dollars fifty cents or so, that's for
five piece and seven forty nine for the ten piece.
If you're a member of Taco Bell Rewards Loyalty, you'll
have a chance to try these Diablo dusted Crispy Chicken nuggets.
I was thinking though, nuggets Bell, or I guess I
should say nugget Bell. That doesn't quite have the same
in case Taco Bell somehow.

Speaker 1 (01:35:00):
Yeah, I think I'll wait and see if people, you know,
die of indigestion before I try that. But who knows.
I don't mind, Spicy.

Speaker 10 (01:35:07):
You could watch some golf, will you try it?

Speaker 6 (01:35:09):
You know?

Speaker 1 (01:35:10):
It was my whole day yesterday?

Speaker 10 (01:35:13):
Yeah, yeah, what do you think.

Speaker 1 (01:35:16):
I'm telling you? You know, Shamba didn't have the greatest
day yesterday, but he's still in it. But watching the
Scottish dude swear at his ball and flip it off
and streaming Scottish action. Ah, that's the whole thing.

Speaker 6 (01:35:31):
There's a whole thing on the internet about that.

Speaker 1 (01:35:33):
God, there's a lot going on. Hey, I gotta let
you know, Denise, we are not here next week. Oh,
which could be very good for you though, because there
is a running joke on the show every time we
go on vacation, something horrible happens.

Speaker 10 (01:35:45):
So oh okay, so we might have a lot of
just a lot of stuff going on, and I'm.

Speaker 1 (01:35:51):
Trying to think what could be worse than all the
crap going on right now, and so we're thinking end times,
so I don't.

Speaker 10 (01:35:56):
Know how, yeah, or a huge hack attack.

Speaker 1 (01:35:59):
So something I don't know, but hey, yeah that you
know for the news business, that's are.

Speaker 10 (01:36:04):
You going somewhere? You stay in local?

Speaker 1 (01:36:07):
It's a secret mission. Tell you.

Speaker 10 (01:36:09):
Okay, maybe when you come back you can maybe. I
hope it is somewhere where you enjoy yourself.

Speaker 1 (01:36:15):
That's it is the most, all right, but I appreciate it. Denise,
enjoy next week.

Speaker 10 (01:36:22):
Okay, yeah, thank you?

Speaker 1 (01:36:24):
All right, there you go, Denise Pelagreni from Bloomberg News
real quick, because apparently yesterday they tried to do it.
CNN killed Michael J. Fox for a minute. Did you
see this.

Speaker 2 (01:36:40):
Dude is going through so much and they do that.

Speaker 1 (01:36:42):
Dam Yeah, They're like, oh, let's go ahead and accidentally
run this thing that Michael J. Foxes because it's it's tine.
It says like remembering Michael J. Fox or something, and
it's like, dude, leave the guy alone. What You're right,
he's going through enough. And I also you see the
way he died slowly faded Yeah, yeah, during a single song.

(01:37:06):
Yeah yeah, it was very sad, so
