Speaker 1 (00:00):
Tuesday, and it already feels like it's been a whole week,
just with the the level of news cycles were already
into war. It's war crime Tuesday. According to every single
media outlet running the same exact story, Trump might be
(00:20):
committing war crimes. There's a lot of might in here
and could in any of the rest, and they just
you know, they say experts, and then you realize that
most of the experts they quote in there are moon
bat former Obama officials, just you know, standard media hacks
and college professors who all pretend who all pretend that
(00:47):
the elimination of a bridge or the cutting off of
power as part of a military action is in and
of itself a war crime, and then also pretend that
the United States itself is subject to the International Criminal Court,
which we are not.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
We are not.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
A lot of people don't realize this. You need to
realize this. We decided that.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
We were not going to turn over.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
We're going to subject ourselves to the whims of a
bunch of angry un style European busybodies. That's not going
to happen. Why, because we're out here, we're doing our thing.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
We're not.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
You know, we're not committee mass genocide. We're not doing
all the things that really horrify in the modern iteration
of the US. As much as people want to hang
this yoke that the US is the worst nation to
ever exist, murdered the most people, somehow still subjugates its citizenry,
still the totality of its citizenry. These are all things
(01:53):
that just don't happen, and they just don't happen, frankly
because Americans and the mindset wouldn't allow it to happen.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Sorry.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Sorry, we're not going to allow because we see what happens.
We see what happens in the UN where they where
they decide that some of the worst regimes in the
world can be on the Human Rights Commission, Right, we
don't trust your judgment. And I don't know if you
guys know this the idea that and the best part
(02:25):
is almost every single story ran this.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Picture of Uh.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
They're stared at the suspension bridge and I ran, and
the middle is clearly gone, right because we already we
bombed it. And then that's the picture they want to use.
That bridge is a bridge to one of what they
call in Iran, one of the missile cities. It is
a bridge to a military installation that is not open
to the public. Because here's the thing. If you go
(02:53):
by the International Criminal Court, or if you go by
what they consider Geneva Convention war crimes kind of stuff,
all right, and you look at it, you can you
can blow up all the bridges you want. And what
their their nuance is, although it's not much of a nuance,
is it has to have a military reason. Okay, well,
(03:15):
you drive a humvy across it, and you don't want
that hum vy driving across it.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
That's a military reason.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
So all of this is so stupid, and shutting off
power to different parts of the country is very, very,
very taxing.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
For their military. That's right.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
You can't produce, which is what they're doing at a
rapid pace, not with the ease that you can produce
now of missiles.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
You can't. There's a lot of things you can't do.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
You blow up, there are fuel reserves, they can't move
military aircraft around, right, Like this is also dumb. And
the fact that everyone, including our local TV stations, they
all got headlines this morning. Let me just pick a
random one. I'll bet if I pick any random one. Uh,
(04:07):
let's go with ABC eleven. All right, so we'll do
We'll do one one from each. Tryad the triangle. Let's
see if they on their front page at some point
have this same spurious article, because if Reuters put it out,
AP put it out, then everybody runs it. All right,
So here I am, I'm on ABC eleven. Uh, this
(04:27):
is the triangle.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Okay, okay, okay, oh look that yeah it is. There's
the AP article right there.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Experts say, all right, let me go to uh, what
do you want to do with the triad. Let's just
go w X I I okay, all right, I'll bet
they have it on here. Let's see land it on.
You need to go to the front page here. Why
are you not going to the main page? You lose
(05:02):
a all right, well, that's very frustrating.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
We try a different one. I know why. I'm won't
load on my broser right now. I mean, you get
the point.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
And of course the newspaper is gonna have it because
they're all on wire service.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Anyway. All right, let's go to WFM. Y all right,
let's see here. Do do do do do do do?
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Oh my goodness, are you sitting down? Yeah, there it
is in their national section. So uh, you know, mostly
it's like two or three versions of the same story.
But again, the idea that taking out a bridge is
some is somehow a war crime is absolute absurdity. This
(05:46):
is about here, This is what this is about. This
is about setting up expectations for your left wing audiences
that somehow Trump's going to be at the Hague, right,
He's gonna be sitting in a little booth contemplating eating
that cyanide capsule someday and and your your.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Your dreams are all gonna come true.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
And that's not going to happen, not if he not
if he does what he literally is threatening to do
today in the way that he's threatening to do it.
And I don't know if you know this, We've blown
up a lot of bridges in fact, Ross, Will you
check real quick, will you see if Hiroshima or Nagasaki
has bridges? Going to look into that, see if the
(06:31):
cities have bridges. Oh they do, that's so weird. Do
they have electricity? Could you check and see if they
have electricity at the current moment? Yeah they yes, Yeah,
Well they also did that, so wow, that's super war
crimey I saw Pete Callener yesterday on Twitter pointed out
(06:52):
that he wants to watched Tom Hanks and Matt Damon
commit a war crime like that in Germany. And you
know what, I think I saw that. I also saw
Harrison Ford do it in Germany the with the navarone
follow up. So yeah, this is a whole bunch of absurdity.
But it's about getting your your moon back base to
(07:18):
think that you know, some something's up here. It's it's
it is absolutely insane. And and by the way, if
you go back to when the Geneva Convention or Geneva Conventions,
which again as far as the ICC, the National Criminal Court,
we we are not We're not.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
A part of that.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
We're not going allow ourselves to be judged by a
bunch of people who barely barely held onto their land
only through our assistance.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
That was forty nine forty forty nine, right, And.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
By the way, there's multiple Geneva Conventions. I don't know
if you guys know that people always go to Geneva Convention,
but there was four of them.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
So there's some fun facts for you.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
This is a thing, this is a thing that Barack
Obama has blew.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Up bridges George Bush blew up bridges. Joe Biden blew
up bridges.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Okay, And so ask yourself, why are we only having
this conversation now.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Bill Clinton blew the hell out of some bridges.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
And I think he knocked power right with the stuff
there in Sarajevo and what not.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
So pound sand Okay.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
And don't get me wrong, if Trump decides he's gonna
open himself up concentration camp, then I'll flip the script.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
But this is absurd. This is about clicks.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
This is about making leftists happy so you can get more.
This is not about reality. The reality is not only
are is the press working against Trump, there are people
within the government working against Trump. But our military in
the safety of that pilot, as Trump outlined yesterday during
(09:10):
a rather fiery little press conference, check this out.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
But these two extraordinary rescues because it was too and
as you probably know, we didn't talk about the first
one for an hour. And then somebody leaked something which
will hopefully find that leaker. We're looking very hard to
find that leaker, and talked about there's somebody missing. They
basically said that we have one and there's somebody missing. Well,
(09:37):
they didn't know there was somebody missing until this leaker
gave the information.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
So whoever it was, we think we'll.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Be able to find it out because we're going to
go to the meet.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Hang on, just because on the front there, I just
want you to understand what is going on here, because
this isn't one of the there's no wiggle room here.
I had no way of knowing, right the fact that
is that, and it appeared I think it was CBS.
It was actually a couple outlets, but I think CBS
technically published first somebody told the press that there was
(10:11):
another guy that we don't have him yet, right, and
then that information goes out. You, if you are a
functioning adult, especially somebody who works in this industry, you
understand immediately the ramifications of that, and that is why
Iran shoved a ninety thousand dollars bounty out to find
(10:34):
this person. You can't, I'm sorry, that doesn't pass the
journalism test when it comes to the safety of the
individual there. You knew you were putting that person in
grave danger providing that information, if it is as Trump
says it is, which that kind of explains why all
(10:56):
of a sudden there was this pivot and bounty. So
the individual, whoever it is within the government, who then
told whoever it was within the news agency there, who
then decided to go ahead and publish this.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
You almost got people killed.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
And you didn't just almost get that person killed, you
put in danger every single member of the military that
went in to conduct that rescue.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
You can't. This is not something where journalistic shield applies.
It's just not.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
It's one of the few exceptions, but it's one of
the most blatant examples I have seen, because.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
A toddler could figure out, you don't do this.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
So I'm going to be very interested to see what
happens the individual who leaked this information. Now, are you
going to be able to do anything to the journalists
who printed it? I don't know, but I will tell
you this. They're going to go to that journalist they
probably already have, and they're going to say who is it?
And if you're gonna sit there and go I can't
reveal my sources, they're going to do something to you.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
And again, this isn't First Amendment anymore.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
We have.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Just as there are exceptions to the Second Amendment, this
is an exception to the freedom of the press, and
it's a very clear cut one. It is national security.
And there's no better example than you giving troop positions
essentially or in this case, a one individual's position, where
(12:26):
then others were to join them. And I'm sorry, I
know that some people are just one hundred percent libertarian
on this.
Speaker 5 (12:33):
But.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
This, this is different. They'll have to prove it, right.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Trump's gonna have to back up what he's saying there
from a timing standpoint, was the information available anywhere else?
But if it is as as it says, I don't
know how a room full of adults sat there and went,
you know what, we should probably probably hold on.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
To this for just a minute.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
They will, Well, this is what you do if you
get this information, go to government. You go, I got
this information, like, please don't release this information, please please please,
and you go, look, I'm gonna hold on to it,
but you call me first once you have done what
you're what it is you're going to do, and likely
it probably like deals like that happen all the time.
(13:18):
You guys just don't even realize. And then you sit there,
you got everything written, You're ready to rock and roll.
Maybe they give you an exclusive or some piece of information.
And that's how it works. Why because at the end
of the day, even if you're mad at the government,
you try not to get people killed.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
So let me finish this clip.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
The company that released it, and we're gonna say national
Security give it up or go to jail, and we
know who, and you know who we're talking about, because
some things you can't do. Because when they did that,
all of a sudden, the entire country of Iran knew
that there was a pilot that was somewhere on the
(13:59):
line and I was fighting for his life. And it
also made it much more difficult for the pilots and
for the people going in to search for him.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Yeah again, because now you have all these bounty hunters,
it explained, so I couldn't really track why I ran
a bit on the convoy where we were taking the
pilot via land to a maritime extraction point, which is
the story we sold them, And then you had and
then you had the bounty hunters on the other side
(14:32):
that really didn't track, and it clearly was that was
the transition I ran thought. The one thing, all of
a sudden, it appears information came out. Now, whether it
was the information derived again, Trump's going to have to
prove that. But this is this is really ugly stuff.
This is like the TDS has now spread to other people.
(14:55):
And I don't mean like people afflicted with TDS, but
the TDS is covering people in Trump's orbit now, including
people he's likely never met. Some you know, some uh
military lifer dude who's just crawled uh seven thousand feet
(15:15):
in elevation up the side of a mountain and is
significantly injured.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
And you don't give a crap. Plus Seal Team six.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Good lord, Now, if there's a group that can handle themselves,
all right, that being said, how dare how dare you
you know much money we invest in training seals?
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Let alone these guys.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
You know, when you work in journalist and I did
the news thing for a while, When you when you
do that, you know, you understand you you all you anticipate.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
The reactions you're gonna get.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
You write a story it's critical of city Hall, You're
already anticipating how they're gonna respond. Let alone something like this,
And I'd hate for a big I'd hate for a
bunch of Navy seals to think that you made it
so that they.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Were more in jeopardy.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Wouldn't want that hanging over my head, just saying all
right eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seventy
four back in just a few and I point out
that we're not subject to the ICC. I'm pointing out
the absurdity of running with the Trump. Trump might be
committing war crimes right like. But for the most part,
(16:25):
the stuff that's in And again, there's four different Geneva Conventions.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Here's what you need to understand.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
So the first one was in nineteen forty nine, the
last one was twenty years ago. And so they you know,
they go through and they add stuff, and I know
you're going to be shocked to learn that they get
remarkably more progressive. And let me make me give you
an example. So in the US, by the way, abides
(16:50):
and arguably is is more abiding of the principles that
are expoused both in the Geneva Convention and and there's
some Hague stuff, but you know, basically the US abides
by it more. Do you know you know Iran literally
was using fake medical vehicles during the search for the
down pilot. That's a core tenant and it's one of
(17:14):
the very first tenants of one of the earliest I
believe it was the first Geneva Convention spoke to specifically
the yeah hanging on here, I have a little cheat
sheet here. Yes, yes, yes, yes, first and second okay,
and actually actually they speak to all of it, right,
(17:35):
and there's a reason. So it protects wounded six soldiers,
it protects medical personnel units. And then chaplains right, so
when you when when you impersonate, which is also something
that is against.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
The Geneva Convention, like Iran did.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Us isn't doing that, not not there, So we tend
to abide by this stuff. I'm just pointing out that
we don't subject ourselves to the whims of a bunch
of nations.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Who hate us.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
We'll police ourselves, and I think we do a pretty
good job of it. To highlight an absurd example, do
you know that they're within the Geneva Convention, they decided
in the most recent one they were going to go
ahead and they were going to try to police which
bullets you can use. So that's in there, that's right.
So you can't use a jacketed round SJP or like
(18:34):
the very thing you would buy to go whack a deer.
You can't use according to the Geneva Convention in war.
That's why full metal jacket is generally the way you go.
But a soft tip or a jacketed round with like
that lead that's soft lead, is technically a violation of
the Geneva Convention. But the reason you buy it to
go shoot a deer is because the mushrooms and expands
(18:55):
and is much more deadly.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Are we doing here? Oh? Well, you know we're striving
not to kill as many people.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
I'm sorry, if we're going to war, I'm not gonna
let I'm not gonna let a bunch of people who
are gun grabbers by nature police, which Amma, we can use.
But yeah, look most of the stuff in there, like
you know, humane treatment for prisoners of war, adequate food, shelter.
I don't disagree with any of that, And we in
(19:25):
practice don't disagree. We don't and and and and we
and we exemplify it too, right, look at look at
how POWs were treated in Germany and Japan. Japan, Like
Germany gets a lot of the credit for for the awfulness,
(19:46):
but the arguably the Japanese pow experience was remarkably worse
because it wasn't just about not caring or you know
mental terror, you know, tear rising people mentally, and it
was like it was like a sport to murder people.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
With the Japanese.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
They would have head shopping off contests with their swords.
You look all this stuff up. So me pointing out
that them using the war crime term is confusing to
people because we're not subject doesn't mean that we shouldn't
follow humane practices, and I have an expectation that my
government will. But I also recognize that sometimes you gotta
(20:31):
buy you're you're fighting an enemy who's willing to paint
up their their vehicle to look like a medical vehicle, which,
by the way, we didn't buy it. And it's a
it's an ash heap now or non uniform combatants that's
against it. So don't give me this garbage and the idea,
the idea that you can't you that you have to
(20:54):
justify taking out a bridge. Uh, well, it has it
has to be an overt military use.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
If you can drive vehicles from point A to point
B and they're moving military stuff, that, in my opinion,
that's good enough. That's good enough. I'll give you another example.
You can't hit a military target that's under construction if
it's being constructed by non military labor or a portion
of it, that means that's right. Luke Skywalker's going before
(21:25):
the hag bro Ross. Did you know you watched a
war crime? When you watch that?
Speaker 2 (21:31):
Was that was my initial reaction? Yes?
Speaker 4 (21:33):
Was it?
Speaker 2 (21:33):
You're like, get them to the Hague now, yeah.
Speaker 6 (21:36):
Which they covered in the documentary. You know it's a
documentary because it's in black and white. Clerks correct, Oh yeah, clerks. Yeah, yeah,
they talk about that.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
Also they do some math on what was it, thirty six,
the thirty six or thirty seven? Could never remember, well,
I mean it would be different now due to inflation.
They call it hoeflation, right, I believe it's the term
for that.
Speaker 7 (22:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
So no, I'm not saying that we need to go
up concentration camps. What I'm saying is that the narrative
that the media is using is disingenuous.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
And by the way, we have our own stated.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Practices for how we handle this, and they almost exactly
mirror what is in these Geneva conventions, which again people
don't understand one.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
They don't even know there's conventions four of them.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
And as you adjusted, and you look at the people
who are adjusting it, why would the US subject themselves
to the whims of people who basically had to have
their butts rescued, people who actively work against us in
worldwide settings like the un.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
Constantly working against us.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
What you're not gonna You're not going to subjugate yourself
when you are the alpha.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
I know people hate to hear that, generally moonbats, but
that's the reality of it.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
And so while not.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
Subject to that, but still doing all those things actually
shows I arguably more of a commitment to it, because
ninety nine percent of this is exactly how we operate.
So that would be my line in the sand. Unless
you can show me something that's changed and we're and
(23:35):
we're doing some you know, the horribleness like the Japanese
were there, then I'll get on board with the you know,
we got a problem, and there have been individual problems,
but as a best practices or at least how we operate,
the US military is super. Look, we we are we
are the most lethal, but arguably also one of the
(23:55):
most humane.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
That's just who we are. Man. So I guess that.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Would that would be my explanation there. All right, let's
go ahead and get back to this. So the leaking thing,
that's a problem. That's a huge problem. And I think
that whoever the whoever the reporter is, and whoever the
leaker is, probably have a lot to worry about right now,
the reporter less. So if they're helpful, I wouldn't want
(24:24):
to be that leaker man, because they're going to make
an example out of you, and it's not going to
be pretty all right, more from the press conference, because
it's well, in fact, let's let's start with this because
of course.
Speaker 5 (24:38):
For the question, deliberate attacks on civilian infrastructure violate that.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
GIVENIVA can listen to how they're listen how they're wording this, well,
it's civilian infrastructure, civilian infrastructure. Let me ask you a question.
The Brag Boulevard is that civilian infrastructure or military infrastructure?
You see the nuance here right. Arguably, blowing up the
(25:07):
streets at the gate entrance to a large military installation
is not helpful to the military, but also it's not
helpful to the apartment buildings right across the street from
the entrance there on Bragg.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
That's what we're dealing with for the.
Speaker 5 (25:22):
Question deliberate attacks on civilian infrastructure, yo late the given
vention of conventions and familiar.
Speaker 8 (25:30):
With I'm with the New York Times.
Speaker 7 (25:31):
It's all in from the New York Times.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Are you failing the failing?
Speaker 9 (25:34):
Are you circulation way down.
Speaker 4 (25:36):
At the New York Times.
Speaker 5 (25:37):
Are you going to learn that your threat to bomb
power plants and bridges?
Speaker 7 (25:40):
I'm out. No, no, no, no, I'm not.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
I hope I don't have to do it. But again,
I just said, forty seven years they've been negotiating with
these people. They're great negotiators. And because they're not going
to have a nuclear weapon. And if somebody that takes
my place someday is weak and ineffective, which POSSI believe
that will happen, because we had numerous presidents that were weak,
(26:03):
ineffective and afraid of Iran. We're never gonna let Iran
have a nuclear weapon. And if you think it's okay
for people that are sick of mind, that are tough,
smart and sick, really sick ideology, you know, from from
a policy standpoint, from a any which way you want
(26:27):
to say mentally, these are disturbed people, by the.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Way, you know, one of the one of the tenets
of the Geneva Convention is the the killing or mistreatment
of people who are not in a position to fight anymore,
which clearly this pilot for this person that we this uh,
the crew member we rescued, and I ran put a
(26:53):
bounty on this person, and people were coming to murder
this person. I ran did sign all for Geneva conventions.
If that's where people want to get their their knickers
in a twist, I think I used that term already,
but it's it's accurate here as well. So the whole
(27:16):
thing is just dumb. Okay, all right, let's uh, let's
see here.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
Oh I do. I love this moment.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
So you've got Trump standing there, you have Jenna Raisin Caine, right, uh, and.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
They just this exchange is funny, man.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
So yeah, there were people within the military that said,
its it wise. And don't forget how many men did
you send all together approximately for the operation.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
I'd love to keep that a secret.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
Okay, well, but I will tell you the number. I'll
keep it a secret, but it was hundreds and hundreds
of these people. It's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Is he centrul? Is he central casting?
Speaker 4 (27:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (27:57):
I'd love to keep the secret so and and again,
this is what's weird is you have a room full
of people that are there to accuse Trump of wanting
to commit war crimes, and then they're laughing at as jokes.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
It's just it's just so odd to me every time
I see it.
Speaker 10 (28:12):
Yesterday and your truth social you cooled the Iranians crazy bustards.
Speaker 7 (28:16):
True.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
What is your response to critics who say that I
don't care about? What is your response to critics who say.
Speaker 10 (28:22):
That is your mental health should perhaps be examined as
this will continue.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
I haven't heard that.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
But if that's the case, you're gonna have to have
more people like me, because our country was being ripped
off on trade or and everything for many years until
I came along. So if that's the case, you're gonna
have to have more people.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
So again, it was it was equal parts funny and
equal parts infuriating when you get into the leaker stuff.
And now we're gonna play the war crimes. By the way,
we already we already smoked bridges during the initial bombings.
I hadn't I hadn't seen what ross did you see
any talking about how Trump? Within like the first three
(29:03):
days we did that committed war crimes? I don't remember.
I don't remember them floating that story at that time.
But now they're floating this story. It's almost as if.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
It might be a little coordinated, just a smidge. I
don't know. Maybe I'm just being conspiratorial.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
AnyWho, six forty eight, hang on, man, I didn't think
Dibbs would need correcting on that. So people were questioning
the part about who was building the Death Star, and
had you all watched and or you would know it
was prison labor, arguably pow labor. So it basically Ross's
(29:44):
dad's favorite movie? Is that his favorite is his favorite movie?
Speaker 6 (29:46):
Or just want to really, dude, My dad watched that
movie so many times, and as a kid, I like,
I never sat down and watched it with him, and
I wish I did now, Like by the Way not
and or to Bridge on the River Quai, Yeah, Bridge
on the River Quay.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Loved that movie.
Speaker 6 (29:59):
Watched it so many times and it would come on
and I'd be like, oh, this old movie again, and
now I sort of wish I watched it with him.
You know, it's something that happens after your parents pass
right Oh yeah, yeah, yeah sure, but yeah, I mean
they blew up a big old bridge in that movie,
right yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Prison labor and then the commands coming in and blowing
it up. Man.
Speaker 6 (30:14):
The best thing too, I was thinking about this about
the Vietnam War. The best thing about the ho Chiman Trail.
No bridges, no bridges.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
Well, it's because there's no rivers, right right, What do
you need bridges right through one of the most rivers
countries in the world.
Speaker 2 (30:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
Yeah, So so again, this is all to highlight the absurdity.
It's not to argue that we should be able to
go in and uh and and be as awful as
the most awful regime you can think of. And the
problem is that's what they're tagging them with that that's
where we're going.
Speaker 10 (30:49):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Ross is just telling me is watching a documentary whether
the's about World War two, and they they keep alluding
to trump ish compared. It's so annoying. So it's on Netflix.
I believe it's called Evil on Trial. It's like the
history of the Nazis and the Nuremberg Trials something on
all day.
Speaker 9 (31:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (31:10):
They cover a lot of stuff done by my We
had this book at home growing up. It was The
Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, a famous book
by Shire, this guy named Shier who was a journalist
for US and like and would go over to Europe.
So it covers a lot of his work. But they
keep doing this thing where when it comes to all
of the historians and biographers and document document whatever people
(31:31):
that make the document documentary documentarians is that a word,
When it comes to all them, they're sitting down and
they keep doing this thing where they're like and just
wanted to make Geminy gray to get or they go.
And then he was in the Eagles Nest, which was
like his Mara Lago. They keep doing this thing where
they're trying to compare the two like they're the same.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Oh I wouldn't, I'd stop right, yeah, you know I
I just turned stuff off.
Speaker 6 (31:55):
Now, dude, I have come close. I've come really close,
because it's just it's insufferable.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
You know.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
I don't know if you guys are watching any of
the or seeing any of this ap history textbook reveal,
it's it is. It is insane.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
I was looking at it.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Here's a chart and it has authoritarian on the top,
libertarian on the bottom, and then economically right, economically left.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
So it says, you know, a for a four square chart.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
They have Barack Obama as an economic right, and he
is almost his. He is almost at Margaret Thatcher. They
have Barack Obama and Margaret Thatcher draft authoritarian economic right.
Hillary Clinton and George W. Bush share a dot, meaning
(32:42):
they are exactly the same.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
Is more authoritarian than Stalin, but only slightly more authoritarian
or less authoritarian than Hitler, and they're almost all equal mine.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
You could avoid the whole cheating stage.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
What you want to do is you get them removed
and then you get in one of those like fake dentures,
but with a giant grill on it, like he's a rapper.
They don't have to deal with it. Man, look at that.
I have good parenting advice, dude. I still still one
of my favorite moments ever talking about your kids is
when Lincoln was born and you mentioned that you got
(33:20):
them malasic, and people loosing their crap over that, oh
at Mede by Day. So any who, All right, I
want to read an email since we're talking about all
of the old Trump's out to commit war crimes today narrative,
let's see here. All right, this is pretty good. All right,
(33:40):
So emailer said, talking about killing people in war, I
remember when I was a teenager, my neighbor was Marine
recon and Vietnam. His brother in law was in the
First Golf War. Dad was in World War Two. Brother
in law was talking about how bad it was all
the Americans killed in the Golf War. The neighbor said
that more guys were killed in his unit in Vietnam
(34:02):
than all Americans in the is the first Golf for
And then Dad pointed out, who again was in World
War Two, that he walked through towns in France where
there were more dead people than Americans killed in Vietnam. So, yeah, yeah,
we do things a little different. But when you're the
world's police, as we have been, right, and you're still
(34:29):
able to operate within these bounds because you're fighting people
that don't operate within these bounds. You know, I ran
indiscriminately firing missiles into those other countries. These are all
war crimes that they themselves supposedly are signed on not
to do. Faking medical vehicles, all of these things. So
I'm sorry, I'm just not going to listen to it
(34:51):
from New York Times journalists or AP writers. I'm just
not unless you can bring me something that is, you know,
of substance. Okay, all right, let me grab a quick
phone call here, Jamal.
Speaker 4 (35:07):
What's up, hey, Casey, Casey. I just wanted to say this, Casey,
when y'all was talking about those movies earlier. I watched
the show Used to Come Home growing up called World
War Two in color, and they have adjusted the commentary,
or maybe I didn't notice it growing up, Casey, but
every time they kep trying to talk about the Nazis,
(35:28):
he's trying to say that right wing and right meaning,
right mean and right meaning, and with the new people
doing these times, so oh showed World War two and
cold they yeah, yeah. He tried to compare the Nazis
to like they're Trumpers and mag of people right there
to the left. No, they won't. These people were right
(35:51):
to the communists, but they were not. They was the left.
And one of the things you brought up, Casey, is
the point I see people. You hear people say well
trump Tom and declare will he a five time draft doggar?
Do people realize Joe Biden was a sixth time draft dodger.
(36:11):
He got five departments for education and one for medical
lieutenant Asthma.
Speaker 11 (36:17):
That's what he.
Speaker 4 (36:18):
Got his medical department for for Vietnam was for Adam,
he got five departments because he wanted to see this
law school. So when they're talking about President Trump, these
same people who are hypocrites will sit here and won't
bring up that Joe Biden whom he's talking about, you know,
Kamala Harris, Well, he was a draft dollar bill.
Speaker 1 (36:42):
Here's the thing that Jamal again, and I feel like
that's something that is almost pointless to litigate once the
person is commander in chief, because he doesn't they're they're
the commander in chief.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
So that's how it works at that point.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
I understand your frustration, but at that point, that person's
commander in chief and we have a protocol, how this,
how this works.
Speaker 4 (37:07):
So but see it's just pointing out the hypocrisy. And
see he brought out CaCu brought out everybody always have
criticism for when America returned fire, but not why we
had to return fire. The same thing with Israel. Everybody
always criticized Israel when they returned fire, but never why
(37:32):
Israel had to return Yvon has fired at neighboring countries.
They fired that apartment come places, they fired their Milison's everything,
more plants power plants in Israel. But you know what,
not one condemnation from eachbody.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
In the world, Barack Obama.
Speaker 1 (37:49):
When Barack Obama was murdering a US citizen, which he
did in yellow and his son that was in a
that was in a residential apartment building, he fired, he
filed a drone. I fired a drone into now it's mine.
I don't know that it killed anyone else, but it's
literally the act of attacking a residential structure. That is
(38:12):
is the height of hypocrisy here. Thank you very much
for the call there.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
Jamal.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
Yeah, it's just look, it's just also stupid. But how
about this, because I want to be Kumbaya. I want
to reach across the aisles ross. What if we imprison
Mark Hamill for his his war crimes of blowing up
the first Death Star. It's I mean, we have video
of him doing that and we throw him in Guantanamo.
Speaker 2 (38:39):
I would be okay with that. That that would be
my compromise. And if we can even waterboard him some if.
Speaker 6 (38:45):
You want, I would say, you need to separate the
actor from the character. But you should you can't really
do that in this because he thinks he is the character,
so he does every you see him on the Twitter.
That's his thing, like I am luke'sky.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
No you're not, you're not.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
Yeah, well no, but if you want to be, you
can be for this. We'll go ahead and do this,
and then all the New York Times and angry moonbats
can can get their pound of flesh. We'll have a
show trial and everything, but it'll be super kangaroo cord,
super duper kangaroo courd. It'll be like, you know, when
(39:23):
somebody on the left is accused committing a crime in
DC or New York and then they just let him
off if there's any political angle, except it'll be the reverse.
Speaker 2 (39:31):
So there we go. Yeah, I yeah.
Speaker 1 (39:35):
And by the way, Jamal, if you call again, I
don't know if you're standing on the other side of
the room from your speaker phone or whatever. I was
having a strain to hear, and apparently the listeners were
as well. So that's a good reminder for everybody. We
hate speaker phones around these parts. So if you're gonna
call into the show, just some are great, many or not,
So that would be uh, would be your request. By
(39:59):
the way, there is a hilarious video floating around about
so I remember I mentioned this story that one of
the things, especially with the amount of remote workers there
are in it, they found a bunch of companies had
like it workers that they thought were in Japan or
(40:21):
South Korea, but actually we're in North Korea. And that's
clearly a problem because North Korea is kind of like
China and that they love stealing stuff, and you don't
want them to have any sort of administrative permissions within
a fortune five hundred company or even one of the
companies was a government military contractor. That's a problem. That's
(40:42):
a big old problem. So they try, they have to try.
Speaker 2 (40:48):
To weed them out.
Speaker 1 (40:50):
And this is ingenius. So this guy does screening from
a headhunter's perspective for these and he has come up
with a way to screen out these North Koreans who
are pretending to be. In this case, the guy was
pretending to be Korean South Korean living in Japan. Okay,
So he's going through the vetting process and he asked
(41:13):
them to do something.
Speaker 2 (41:15):
And let me tell you, works like a charm. Here
we go.
Speaker 7 (41:19):
No, hey, you're back, what happened?
Speaker 4 (41:21):
Yeah, okay, I just.
Speaker 5 (41:26):
I think, okay, no worries.
Speaker 2 (41:31):
Yeah, I mean I was.
Speaker 10 (41:32):
I was in the process of saying, like, we get
like a lot of impost candidates, you know, particularly North Koreans,
like posing as like people that they're not. So one
of the tests that we do is trying to get
them to say something like Kim Johnan is a ugly pig?
Could you could you say that for me? Ah? Sorry, no,
(41:53):
Kim Johnan, you know, the leader of North Korea.
Speaker 1 (41:57):
And by the way, now the guy is vapor locked
pretending not to know who Kim Jong un is, and
if he really is a South Korean, I think he
knows who that is.
Speaker 5 (42:09):
Yeah, ah, I so I see, I should see.
Speaker 4 (42:15):
Like as.
Speaker 2 (42:18):
You should say Kim Jong un is a fat pig
or whatever.
Speaker 10 (42:20):
He said, if you could, because because it's it's one test,
so that I know that you're not not North Korean.
Speaker 3 (42:28):
M h.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (42:32):
Is that.
Speaker 1 (42:40):
He's he's still there. He's just you can see his
mind's going on thousand miles an hour and he's unable
to move.
Speaker 2 (42:46):
He really don't want to say okay, dude.
Speaker 6 (42:52):
The guy freezes up and you can see the panic
in his face because he's supposed to be doing this, right, Yeah,
it is his mission, but he can't say the thing
that they want him to say. But he has to
say something because if he doesn't get the job, the
guy that he can't trash talk is going to murder
him in four generations of his family. So he's sitting
(43:13):
there and it's like a lose lose do you bash
dear leader or do you or do you not? And
like he's he's completely screwed at that point, Like what
is he supposed to do?
Speaker 2 (43:22):
Do you think they'd have a protocol like where you
get a freebie? You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (43:27):
Yeah, like you can say it, but off camera, like
they can see that your fingers are crossed, like you know.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
Yeah there you go.
Speaker 1 (43:32):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you got it down down little
by the side of the chair and oh okay, you
didn't mean it, yeah, because like that's way too effective.
Speaker 6 (43:39):
Yeah, he's about to fail his mission, but he can't
say the thing that's going to pass the mission.
Speaker 2 (43:43):
So what's he gonna do?
Speaker 1 (43:44):
And and by the way, he's selling it, well, you
see how fat that dude is.
Speaker 2 (43:49):
Compared to this.
Speaker 1 (43:50):
I mean he's I mean he's not morbidly obese, but
like compared to what you see in North Korea, that
dude's eating pretty good.
Speaker 6 (43:57):
I love too how they first ask him, and he's
asking like he's acting like he has some sort of
technical problem or something that he doesn't understand that I
couldn't hear you.
Speaker 2 (44:04):
It was going through a tunnel, did you say? I
can't wait?
Speaker 1 (44:07):
That That in and of itself is problematic because he's
he's advertising for a technical position or he's interviewing for
a technical position, so none of his crap works.
Speaker 2 (44:16):
That doesn't reflect Well, that's awful.
Speaker 1 (44:21):
Yeah, all right, Ross, I need you to say something
about Trevor. Okay, I just want to make sure you're
not you don't work for Beasley or one of the
other radio things. So dude, they're gonna have to come
up with a protocol or something or make more videos
because I was greatly amused watching that.
Speaker 2 (44:42):
Umm is this okay? All right, that's an interesting interpretation
of Jamal's call there? Uh AnyWho?
Speaker 4 (44:58):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (44:59):
Oh that's it.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
Why don't we just take the straight and be done
with it? Oh, there's so there's so much geopolitics there, man.
I honestly I think that I look, could we go
in and take this straight? Absolutely, I don't think there's
any question. They don't have a navy anymore. And by
the way, we've dealt with them putting minds which also
are a violation of the Geneva Convention Iran. We've we've
(45:23):
dealt with them putting mines and stuff in there another
underwater obstacles. So it's not our first rodeo there. But
the thing with the straight is, I think Trump really
really wants to force the hand of the Europeans, and
if not, if they don't use it as justification for
(45:44):
an off ramp for something like NATO, like there's there's
there's some four D chess going on there. I truly
believe that. So I think that's why we don't just
take it. But one day he may just be like,
all right, screw it, We're gonna take it. But then
you're the world's police again. Honestly, I think that if
(46:04):
they would have, if Spain, Italy and France would have
let us use the airspace in literally in countries where
we have military presence but we can't fly over it
for a military operation, if they if they had just
been helpful in some way, shape or form, we would
not be here. I think we already would have opened
the Strait. You know, there's some uh, there is a
(46:28):
conspiracy that this is this is about creating a new
world order. I don't know if you've seen any of
this stuff. There's a guy who lays it all out
and it sounds very crack potty, but it's it's still
an interesting thing, and it basically it surmises that what
Trump is attempting to do is to create a fortress
(46:50):
in the Western hemisphere, not just with America, but with
America and its Western Hemisphere partners, and basically just.
Speaker 2 (46:59):
Let Europe die. We you know, we would have the oil.
Speaker 1 (47:04):
You let things run amok over there, a lot of
the Arab nations or the Muslim nations being a whole
world of hurt and but it's predicated on them just
letting this, letting this fester, essentially never winning winning against Iran.
Speaker 2 (47:22):
Like Guess said, it's.
Speaker 1 (47:23):
It's pretty crazy stuff. But the outcome if it were
to play out like that, where Europe essentially financially collapses,
it it we would never again question the reserve currency
of the world being the dollar. We along with Venezuela
and Canada basically would would then be the fossil fuel
(47:44):
producers for the world, and we would be able to
China would have It would be far more problematic for
China to try to do anything to us.
Speaker 6 (47:55):
I don't think it's a crackpot theory. That's sort of
where I've been for a while. It's all about right,
consolidated power. Even Greenland is no. No, no, no, I think
you no, I agree with you. I think that that
part is not crackpot.
Speaker 1 (48:05):
I think it's the part where he goes, so what
Trump's got to do is he's got to go full
on war with Iran and never win.
Speaker 2 (48:11):
And I just don't see that.
Speaker 1 (48:12):
Oh okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's one
of the dominoes that needs to topple.
Speaker 11 (48:16):
No.
Speaker 1 (48:17):
Oh, absolutely, try to become self sufficient, creative fortress. I
don't think there's any question that that's what I mean.
Speaker 6 (48:22):
I mean in China, good luck man when it comes
to their oil, whether it was before, it was in
Venezuela and now I ran and have good luck going
into Taiwan when you don't have any oil, yeah yeah,
or good luck to anything.
Speaker 1 (48:34):
But but the part about essentially letting Europe just turn
into mad Max Hellscape. Some would argue that they've already
started the process themselves.
Speaker 6 (48:48):
So you mentioned it in one regard last week where
it was like, you know, well, how could you we
be turning on our allies? And I think Marco Rubio
said it right like and a lot of respects. Are
we on the same side anymore? Because a lot of
times it does seem.
Speaker 2 (49:00):
Like we are.
Speaker 1 (49:01):
No, absolutely, yeah, no, Rubio laid it out like you
asked your again.
Speaker 2 (49:06):
The flyover thing's crazy. It's just that is that a
friend anymore?
Speaker 1 (49:13):
Not really, it's a friend only on their terms, And
you know how that works out within your own interpersonal relationship.
You have a friend that's everything's on their term, They're
not your friend for much longer anyway. Eight eight eight
nine three four seven eight seven four will be right back, Is.
Speaker 2 (49:28):
That what you're telling me?
Speaker 4 (49:29):
Ross?
Speaker 1 (49:30):
Why he sounded like he was calling us from the
artemis because all right, what is this hold on?
Speaker 2 (49:37):
I'm looking at his tweet here.
Speaker 1 (49:40):
So normally when he calls the show, he's on his
Apple AirPods. Head said, okay, but today he was using
his beats by Drey yeah, let me here's what you
want to do to fix your beats by dre headphones
or earbuds. What you want to do is you want
to get a smelting a crucible, right, fill it with
(50:03):
molten metal of something, and then throw it in there,
and then once you're able to then extract the metal
from there, get rid of it. Because it's now so
polluted it probably is useless.
Speaker 6 (50:15):
I can't express to you what a trash product those are. Yeah,
they sent us a bunch of those headphones when they
came out. They wanted all the radio people to get
on board with it, and they were like, hey, so
they gave us, you know, all free headphones, and I
would say ninety five percent of us here put those
headphones on, you know, di little test talking in a
microphone and said these sound like absolute garbage.
Speaker 1 (50:37):
Are Arguably it just backfired on them because what you
did is you send them to people who really understand
what good headphones should sound like, right, because we have headphones,
We have headphones on so much that literally there are
medical conditions that radio people can get, and not just
radio people. If you wear head like if you have
to wear protective ear protection and you wear it all day,
(51:00):
you know what I'm talking about. You get a lot
more like ear wax build up. You can get cauliflower
ear from it. You can get like so we're really
picky about the headphones, and you'll get arguments.
Speaker 2 (51:11):
Ross is a Sony guy.
Speaker 1 (51:12):
I was a Sendheiser guy for a lot of years,
and I just got frustrated with Sennheiser because.
Speaker 2 (51:16):
They got all basy.
Speaker 1 (51:18):
So I used the studio Sony's now and it's like,
so when you send the beats and they sound like that,
and you're sending it to people who have like high
social media followers and talk on the radio, I don't
know how that's good for you.
Speaker 6 (51:31):
But apparently they've done well. It's just the power being
doctor Dre. I guess yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (51:36):
They market them very well and the price point is
lower than the Apple products.
Speaker 6 (51:40):
Do you remember there was some sort of tech blog
on YouTube where they opened them up to It.
Speaker 2 (51:44):
Was the Linus guy did it? I watched the video.
Speaker 6 (51:47):
Was they like or like gizmoto or something? I think
they all probably did, yeah, and they opened and they
were like what is this?
Speaker 1 (51:54):
Yeah, it's like the parts in there were just not
up to snuff, but you know, from a sound perspective,
it was instantly, instantly recognizable.
Speaker 6 (52:05):
There was I remember there was one piece inside it
where it did nothing, like, it had no function. The
only point of it being was if you open the headphones,
it would look like something.
Speaker 2 (52:13):
Was in there.
Speaker 6 (52:14):
Hey you Well, so if you were like, you know,
like you just a layman, you would open it up,
be like, what's in my headphones? You'd be like, wow,
this looks fancy. And the thing did absolutely nothing.
Speaker 1 (52:23):
I don't remember that, but yeah, yeah, So am I
surprised at the microphone on the that Jamals tried talking
to also doesn't sound great.
Speaker 2 (52:31):
No, I'm not surprised at all. Man. I will say
this though, I saw something last week.
Speaker 1 (52:39):
So, uh, when you get off six this is in
Raleighen you get off six Forks to go to and
you're going up to North Hills right and you're on
you're on the north side of forty. There there's always
some dude panhandling up there, just because it's it's arguably
one of the busiest off ramps. It's got to be
in the in the try and so I'm going over.
(53:02):
We got a we have a client over there that
relax the backstores.
Speaker 2 (53:05):
I'm gonna go.
Speaker 1 (53:06):
I'm going over there to to chat with Lee on
the our client over there. And I'm unfortunately in that
first position in the left lane because he's on the
left side there, and I'm right next to the right
next to his panhandler dude, and he's got his sign
and he's you know normally they walk the row and
I'm in the station vehicle and he's just staring at me.
Speaker 2 (53:25):
This guy is wearing.
Speaker 1 (53:29):
Several hundred dollars Jordan's But what irritated me the most
is he's got the thing that I want but I
cannot justify spending the money on yet. And that is
the Apple. Not the AirPods I have those, but the
over the head that there, the heavy over the head headphones,
the Bluetooth headphones, because they're like eight hundred bucks, and
(53:53):
I'm just like, and he's wearing also, he's wearing one
of those very expensive graphic teas where you know it's
not just it's not just the graphic, but it's it's
like they got its bejeweled. I don't know how to describe.
You see a lot of rappers wearing them in the
big oversized teeth. So this dude is what what did
what did the kids say this? This dude's drip is
(54:13):
off the charts and he has jewelry too, And I'm like,
I I make a decent living and I can't justify
those headphones, the shoes, the tea.
Speaker 2 (54:26):
You got to change into rags.
Speaker 1 (54:28):
Bro, Like, I almost get I want to give him
Panhandler advice because it was just so absurd everything that
he had on there. But if he had some beats on,
maybe I'd give him him a dollar because clearly he
would have needed it. That's what all that was about.
All Right, one other piece of audio for you. So
(54:49):
this is from the Easter egg Roll, which which, by
the way, the they did a very funny thing with
their coverage in the Washington Post where they compared Trump's
Easter egg roll to Obama's and they just ignored that
Joe Biden ever existed in there, probably because there were
some really really funny incidents with Remember when Biden kind
(55:14):
of got scared by the Easter rabbit. There's a video
that's just like and then another one where he just
it's one of his wander off, the greatest wander off moments.
But he was he was going in the wrong direction,
so they just skipped by all that. So anyway, fast
forward to the Easter egg roll up of the White
House and Trump's sitting there, and he's sitting at the
kids table. Got I know, I was like six seven
(55:36):
kids around him, and he's signing autographs, but he's also
talking to him and just listening to him cut up
on Biden to a bunch of kids who, frankly, none
of them are old enough to even understand what's going
on with what he's telling them.
Speaker 2 (55:54):
They're just so happy to be there because there's tons of.
Speaker 1 (55:57):
Candy and cake and fun and all of that, like
they're living their best kids life. And it's just I
don't know, I don't know why this strikes me. It's
so funny, but it's one of those moments that it
doesn't look like a stage moment.
Speaker 2 (56:11):
It's just always how he is.
Speaker 1 (56:14):
And it's interesting because I've even heard reporters you don't
like him, who say that he's very funny in person,
and of course a lot of people do like him
to say he's very funny in person, But just the
way he's talking to these kids, I started laughing so
he's signing you can sell them five guy, and he's.
Speaker 2 (56:32):
Telling him you can sell him for twenty five K
when you're older.
Speaker 4 (56:40):
Hang out.
Speaker 2 (56:40):
We just biding stuff there.
Speaker 12 (56:46):
Caroline is the only one that doesn't want my other
press R.
Speaker 5 (56:51):
Zero.
Speaker 3 (56:52):
I would say Caroline zero as.
Speaker 4 (56:56):
That's nice.
Speaker 7 (56:57):
I think I can signed this that way.
Speaker 1 (56:58):
I'm saying, I do it all right, all right, See
here's the transition.
Speaker 2 (57:04):
This is the part that just made me bust off.
Speaker 12 (57:07):
Everybody.
Speaker 2 (57:10):
You would use ato you have?
Speaker 12 (57:16):
He was in cap so they'd followed with the picture
gans Os called and his kine he takes handed Jewish
guys sign.
Speaker 1 (57:31):
I'm sorry man, I don't know why I find that funny.
Maybe just because of the age of the kids. I
don't know what an auto pen is, but he's just
riffing on him. Man signs him a nice autograph and
uh for everyone but Caroline, because Caroline just wants candy.
Speaker 2 (57:45):
I guess I don't know.
Speaker 1 (57:48):
But those kids had a lot better Easter egg hunt
than some kids in California.
Speaker 2 (57:54):
Uh check this out.
Speaker 1 (57:55):
Long Beach, California authorities have launched an investigation after possible
well human remains were foundering an Easter egg hunt, I kids,
you not. These kids are running around up, running around
this era this whereas this DeForest Park, so it's a
big park there in Long Beach, looking for the eggs.
And one of the kids looks, fine, something that kind
(58:15):
of looks like an egg but half buried, and uh
it's it looks like a small like kid's skull. Yeah,
Now I have a question, Ross, you check that for
money and candy right first, because we always had like
one thing that was not like any of the other eggs,
and it was it was a large plastic egg and
(58:35):
they put money in it.
Speaker 2 (58:36):
Yeah, and we would have like the giant gold egg.
Speaker 1 (58:38):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, that was the one he wanted
to find. That was the one because there's five dollars
in there. Man, So I think you got to check
the skull for.
Speaker 2 (58:47):
You would at least shake it, right. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (58:50):
The authorities like, ah, you shouldn't touch that. Then they
the police come and anyway, so now they're looking into it.
The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's Office responded to the
scene has yet to give an update until they get
results from the medical office. And yeah, that looks like
a little kid's skull, man, that's I mean, it's very disturbing.
(59:10):
Hopefully the kids it's not. It was pure cleaned, I guess,
so that's good. It wasn't gory. But well, the kids
would say, you got mogged by a panhandler. I don't
know what that means, Jeff marpa or no, is it
raise ray back today?
Speaker 7 (59:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (59:29):
Yeah, yeah, Hey, what's going on? It's our Bloomberg person
is off for two days?
Speaker 2 (59:34):
So what happened? You Easter too hard or what?
Speaker 13 (59:37):
No?
Speaker 7 (59:37):
You know the long story short.
Speaker 8 (59:38):
It was a spring break for my wife and I
was supposed to be off all week.
Speaker 2 (59:42):
College student.
Speaker 8 (59:43):
No, no, she's a teacher, so elementary school. So they're off.
We were supposed to go to charge plan, plan to change.
I didn't take the whole week off, and I may
have another random day, but as of now, I'm here
the rest of the week. If I take another day.
Speaker 1 (59:56):
It might be we theorist eight to ten pound easter
money thing from close close right?
Speaker 2 (01:00:03):
Ok?
Speaker 8 (01:00:04):
Yeah, I've been known. I've been known to dabble in
ten pound chocolate bunnies. But well, anyway, let's get to
the important stuff. Because you know what week it is?
Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
Yep, all right, and you're Jeff yesterday said it's going
to be a banger, so let's keep that up.
Speaker 8 (01:00:21):
Yeah, great, I mean fifties in the morning, near above
seventy Thursday, Friday, seventy five over the weekend low eighties
and a light breeze too, So absolutely beautiful for the
masters Thursday, maybe a little chillier where we start off
close to forty degrees than coming up between forty five
and forty eight on Friday morning, and near above fifty
(01:00:42):
for Saturday Sunday morning, So it should be should be awesome.
Speaker 3 (01:00:44):
Man.
Speaker 8 (01:00:45):
Really going to translate into how our weather is also
going to be, it's pretty similar as we may have
some nighttime lows tomorrow morning in the mid upper thirties,
and then as we go through the day, you know,
to the sixties, close to seventy by Thursday, into the
eighties by the weekend. And it's really this big area
of high pressure that's around that's given us this great
weather today.
Speaker 7 (01:01:04):
Kind of the the.
Speaker 8 (01:01:06):
Anomaly in terms of sky condition. There's some clouds around,
but we're going to get some sun. I do feel
even as we get into the second part of the day,
especially start to see clearing to the west in a
line from Franklin, Ashville and up into southwest Virginia and
the Roanoke Valley that's slowly trying to work east. So
I think any sun that we do get probably going
(01:01:28):
to be second part of the day, and then we
will clear tonight, and then tomorrow will be cooler than today.
Speaker 7 (01:01:33):
When today we get it to the mid upper sixties, so.
Speaker 8 (01:01:36):
I'm not terrible Tomorrow low sixties, and then as I said,
Thursday morning, mid upper thirties, sun in the afternoon mid
upper sixties, and then Friday here we'll have sunshine around
low to mid seventies.
Speaker 7 (01:01:47):
That we're all sunny and near just above eighty degrees.
Speaker 8 (01:01:50):
Same thing, pretty close to what they're going to see
in Augusta for the upcoming weekend. So you know, it's
good for Augusta, good for the golf casey and outdoor plans,
but it's not good for the growing drought across the
southeastern US.
Speaker 1 (01:02:01):
Not good for my waistline either because I'm just gonna
sit and eat and watch and be surefully motionless. So yet, yeah,
all right, I appreciate it, Thank you, sir, mister Stagic there.
As you know, on this show, one of the things
we like to highlight is what a hotbed of great
ideas the city of Boston is and the people's there.
(01:02:24):
So when we come back, we're going to go ahead
and check in on there. Let's send a social worker
instead of police or in this case with police, but
let the social worker dictate.
Speaker 2 (01:02:32):
How to handle the scene.
Speaker 1 (01:02:34):
New program there, because you're going to be shocked with
what happened.
Speaker 2 (01:02:40):
We'll get to that next hang on.
Speaker 1 (01:02:42):
The Boston Police Department actually was one of the first
large departments to have a what's known as they call
Boston Emergency Services Team. And what this was is it
was liaison with the Boston Medical Center's Mental health and
Police Office officers. If they encounter to you know, somebody's
(01:03:02):
having a mental health crisis and they were dispatched to
go deal with that, they could bring along somebody. Well,
once this got the you know, into its new thing
here since George Floyd, they really ramped it up, and
they've also created a situation where if police are unseen
(01:03:25):
and they are coresponding with one of the clinicians, the
clinician actually has like they're making the call on on
in some of these situations as to how to handle it,
which that's insane to me.
Speaker 2 (01:03:39):
Because they don't have law enforcement power. The police do.
Speaker 1 (01:03:43):
So they get a call some guy he is he's screaming.
He says that four guys with guns are trying to
kill him. They're coming to kill him. But he's not
making a lot of sense. So they the clinician and
the Boston police. They respond and the clinician, the mental
health expert, is communicating with this guy through a door,
(01:04:05):
and after about forty five minutes, she tells the officer
that he's going to come out. He you know, he
was freaking out, but it's gonna be fine, and we're
gonna go and get him some help.
Speaker 2 (01:04:20):
This is her evaluation.
Speaker 1 (01:04:21):
Now, the officers had not been speaking to this guy
except when they first got there. They kind of were
following the lead of this clinician, so they kind of
stand down. Door opens, and he comes out and just
immediately surrenders and everything's fine. No, I'm kidding. The door open,
he punches the mental health worker, knocks her to the ground,
(01:04:43):
and then reveals a giant sword that he then stabs
one of the Boston police with.
Speaker 2 (01:04:49):
Who had just been told to basically stand down.
Speaker 1 (01:04:51):
He's coming out, so because I feel like the police
might have went in a different direction here. Now thankfully
the officer got stabbed in the arm and it did
hit you know anything major. That being said, clearly your
your program's working out there, So there you go.
Speaker 2 (01:05:09):
And he was still taking into custis.
Speaker 1 (01:05:11):
They ain't him shooting fool holes or anything, even though
he has a giant sword, which again everybody has a sword,
although I now do too, so there is that. Also,
the Artemis bathroom broke again, so I guess we're just
done with that.
Speaker 2 (01:05:27):
This sucks. Apparently it's stinking up in there too. Man, dude.
Speaker 1 (01:05:32):
The funniest reaction was the last time it broke, so
the second time because remember they were like, oh, there's
ice over with the tube that jettisons it out into space.
And I saw this woman who I thought I thought
it was parody. So I did the thing where I
go to her account and she's just super Granola Eco moonbat,
who was upset that we were jettising human waste into space.
Speaker 2 (01:05:55):
For some reason. I mean, is that a concern? Really?
What do you what do you what do.
Speaker 1 (01:06:02):
You think that that's it's gonna fall back to Earth?
Speaker 2 (01:06:05):
I don't I don't. I don't.
Speaker 6 (01:06:06):
We're gonna pollute the sun. I mean, what smash the
windshield of some violent alien race?
Speaker 2 (01:06:12):
Right?
Speaker 6 (01:06:12):
Or could maybe maybe it hits some sort of meteorite
and then a meteorite hits a planet and then it
brings plague to that planet.
Speaker 1 (01:06:22):
And then they retaliate. I guess it's the end of
your doom sta scenario here. And then the Mars attacks
guys show up.
Speaker 2 (01:06:30):
It'll be fine. They come in peace, do they? Though?
How about the guys with the book that says to
serve man? They come in peace too?
Speaker 7 (01:06:38):
Right?
Speaker 2 (01:06:38):
Oh? Death? Good eating? Wait eating?
Speaker 7 (01:06:41):
What?
Speaker 2 (01:06:42):
Oh my god, it's a cookbook. What are we gonna do?
Speaker 1 (01:06:45):
So anyway, so now they're using well they're using what
do they call it? They actually have a name for it,
Ross calling it space diapers.
Speaker 2 (01:06:53):
I think that's very mean. I mean that's what it
is though. It's a space diaper.
Speaker 4 (01:06:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:06:58):
Basically, it's called a collapsible contingency unit.
Speaker 2 (01:07:02):
Day person out of space.
Speaker 1 (01:07:05):
News and stories that are out there today, right, you
got a majority of the media running around accusing Trump
of war crimes. It's a bridge and power day apparently
in Iran, and you know, nobody's ever blown up a
bridge as part of a military operation apparently, so you
(01:07:26):
have that. Arguably that's a pretty big story. Okay, but
yet the thing that gets the most calls and reactions
space poop.
Speaker 2 (01:07:34):
So let's do this. Andrew, good morning, what's up?
Speaker 4 (01:07:38):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (01:07:38):
Good morning?
Speaker 7 (01:07:39):
Casey.
Speaker 4 (01:07:39):
Here if y'all are doing well, and so, yeah, I
just wanted to comment on the people were telling a
shit about the space poop. So they've got a good point.
Speaker 7 (01:07:49):
I've watched enough Joe Dirt.
Speaker 4 (01:07:51):
To know that this is just not going to end
well for the United States.
Speaker 2 (01:07:56):
Well it ain't the media, Yeah it is.
Speaker 14 (01:07:59):
It came out of the state.
Speaker 2 (01:08:00):
Well, I'm sure it did, but it ain't.
Speaker 3 (01:08:02):
No mate, there's a big old frozen chunky what.
Speaker 1 (01:08:07):
You realize. I was so proud of Ross for being
able to resist that that I okay, technically I ran
it up against a hard break so he didn't have
time to do it.
Speaker 2 (01:08:19):
And then you coordinate with some guy just so you can.
Speaker 1 (01:08:22):
Get out of his I can't believe that. Is that
what Jay's gonna try to do too, Jake, what's up?
Speaker 11 (01:08:28):
Yeah? So the think moof coming down, I mean, it's
gonna eventually come down. Some dude's gonna find it. He's
gonna eat fred Fries off of it. Then he's gonna think, hey,
maybe I got something worthwhile, you know, like the one
in the Arizona where it's like worth a couple of
billion dollars, you know, a meteorite. But he takes it there,
and he's gonna he's gonna find out it's not it's
not that.
Speaker 7 (01:08:48):
It's just an old crapper tank.
Speaker 1 (01:08:50):
People take it away.
Speaker 2 (01:09:00):
I'm not to help me.
Speaker 1 (01:09:04):
So anyway, fireworks, I said, fireworks. He's scrambling. Oh he
doesn't have it on his Oh I thought he always
had it there.
Speaker 2 (01:09:16):
Oh, never mind.
Speaker 13 (01:09:19):
So you're gonna tell me that you don't have no
black cats, no Roman candles or screaming memis. No, Oh,
come on, man, you don't got no lady fingers, buzz butterles,
snicker bombs, church burners, finger blasters, gut busters, zippity do
does or craft flappers.
Speaker 2 (01:09:33):
No, I don't.
Speaker 14 (01:09:34):
You're gonna stand there owning a fireworks stand and tell
me you don't have no whistling bungholes, no spleen splitters,
whisker biscuits, honkey riders hoosker doos hoosker, don'ts.
Speaker 2 (01:09:45):
Cherry bombs, nips.
Speaker 14 (01:09:47):
And dazers with it without the scooter stick or one
single whistling kiddie chaser.
Speaker 2 (01:09:53):
You got all out your system. Yeah, man, I can't.
I can't believe I fell for that.
Speaker 1 (01:10:03):
I had a suspicion. I never thought he'd bring two.
So anyway, do you know the irony is the tube
that's clogged is the number one tube. The number two
tube apparently is working.
Speaker 6 (01:10:18):
So how'd explain that? What do you mean how does
that get clogged but the other one don't? I think
it's because it's icing, is the issue?
Speaker 2 (01:10:29):
Ok? Yeah, and one's more ice ready. I mean yeah,
that's fair. Yeah, yeah, that's just my theory. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:10:38):
There's some people are not doing a lot of critical
thinking on this, Like I was very disappointed in our
nation's education system yesterday because I you know, they when
they went around the moon. I was kind of following that.
I was on the Twitter following that, uh, you know,
there's forty minutes there not in contact. Who knows, maybe
they get replaced on the other side of the moon
with shape shifting aliens. But people were they people couldn't
(01:11:05):
understand why if we were going around the Moon for
an assist, why we were slowing down on our way there,
and then then after we went around the Moon, why
we were speeding up more. I don't know if they
(01:11:26):
taught they taught this in Wyoming Ross. Did they ever
teach you up in the New York public school system
about gravity?
Speaker 2 (01:11:34):
Did you guys? Ever?
Speaker 6 (01:11:36):
I took an entire class on that And what year
was that maybe eleventh grade? Yeah, physics? Yeah, that was
awful at it.
Speaker 2 (01:11:45):
Yeah, So I don't know if you know this.
Speaker 1 (01:11:48):
The larger something is, the more gravitational pull it exerts.
So the reason that even after we initially were going
really really fast, after we came around Earth, while we
were slowing is not because they were hitting the brakes.
It's because we had the Earth's gravity tugging on the ship.
Speaker 2 (01:12:09):
Right. So then once you go around the Moon and
you've left the.
Speaker 1 (01:12:16):
Very much smaller gravitational pull that is the Moon, you're
going back to Earth. Now the Earth's gravitational pull is
pulling you forward towards it, so you will gain speed.
Speaker 2 (01:12:27):
And I saw.
Speaker 1 (01:12:30):
Way too many adults who just and I don't think
it's that they don't know it. I think that we're
in a society now where we just don't stop to think.
Speaker 10 (01:12:38):
No.
Speaker 6 (01:12:38):
I saw that. I saw people saying, how come this
is the furthest we've ever gone? If we've gone there before,
like in nineteen sixty nine, how come this is the
furthest we went when before we didn't? When you know,
there are different distances between things, and the moon isn't
always in this at the same distance, right, It's not
like a perfect circle. I also saw somebody, a bunch
of people actually, which is kind of terrifying. They were
(01:12:59):
confused as to why the moon wasn't bright when they
got there. Because it's bright in the sky. You mean
that the reflective moon. Hence the important to remember the
word reflective. I will say the photos that came yesterday
from the far side of the moon, where they looked
like brown and greens, those are fascinating. I wasn't expecting that.
Speaker 1 (01:13:23):
Lots of cool stuff, man, there's I mean, there's just
a bunch of little cool elements.
Speaker 2 (01:13:26):
And I again, I just.
Speaker 1 (01:13:30):
I'm glad we get to nerd out on this stuff again,
because you and I really did you know you and
I didn't get the initial nerd out right. We were
we were we weren't alive, and they stopped going to
the moon by the time you and I were born.
So now that we're doing this again, I am I
am all in man.
Speaker 6 (01:13:48):
Another big question is why are we doing it? Like
what benefit is this to us? I had a bunch
of callers today. I had one call her name was Sue.
She didn't want to go in the air, but that
was their big question, like, what is the benefit to
humanity from going to the moon?
Speaker 2 (01:14:00):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:14:00):
Man, there's uh, there's there's a ton of benefit to
because what you're doing is you are making you're making
the travel there more economic. But also there are there
are so many interests there are there's potential for mining.
There's a lot of people who think that one day
we could these data centers which require a mets amount
(01:14:22):
of water, and a met's amount of water is for cooling. Well,
you know where it's really cold. I don't know if
you know, this space very very very cold. And also
there's another thing, and there's probably a bunch that I'm
leaving off. There's actually a term for this and I
saw I don't think it was musk explaining it. But
(01:14:44):
it was somebody who works at SpaceX who is explaining it,
Like there's a term now that's like the space economy,
and in fact, let me look this up because it's
really fascinating.
Speaker 2 (01:14:56):
But there was a lot to it.
Speaker 1 (01:14:57):
So I didn't get into it on the air because
not everything translates well to radio. But where you know,
it's a whole whole thing. Yeah, private and public. So
they estimate that the space economy, including all public and
private activities involving exploring, understanding, and more importantly utilizing space,
(01:15:17):
will reach a market cap of one point eight trillion
in the next ten years.
Speaker 2 (01:15:23):
So that's driven by falling launch costs. Satellite.
Speaker 1 (01:15:27):
Oh that's the other thing, right, So you got a
bunch of satellite zipping around and like, we have a
lot of them, and at some point you just you
can't have that many because it's it's a problem. Right, Well,
what if you could utilize the moon as some sort
of something to being back to the end, Like there's
so many suggestions. I don't pretend to understand all of it.
(01:15:50):
Satellite services, earth observation, infrastructure, critical data for agriculture, navigation,
and defense. There's just so many things. But the other
thing is we're doing it because we can. And we
also know that people who don't have our best interest
at heart are also trying to do it.
Speaker 2 (01:16:08):
They're just not there yet.
Speaker 1 (01:16:11):
So if you when you think they're on the cusp,
you have to ask yourself, are you going to be
comfortable with China basically having all the infrastructure on the Moon.
Speaker 2 (01:16:22):
Does that make you feel good? Probably? Not, man.
Speaker 6 (01:16:26):
I mean there's a lot of technological advancements that we
take for granted today that we would not have if
it wasn't for the Space program.
Speaker 1 (01:16:32):
Like tang right, yes, yes, yeah, but more so yeah,
you get into the technology of.
Speaker 2 (01:16:40):
It like we would. A GPS would not be a thing. Nope,
there's there's there's a whole way.
Speaker 6 (01:16:45):
I mean, we could do a whole show just Also,
it's the benefit on like young minds as well. I
saw somebody talking about this where, you know, after the
moon landing, they would pull children in schools and they'd
be like, you know, hey, what what's your dream job?
What do you what do you dream? What are your aspirations?
And the kids to be like, I want to be
an astronaut, I want to leave Earth, I want to
they want to be an influence now they want to
be like YouTubers or social influence.
Speaker 2 (01:17:06):
Yeah, yeah, which is depressing. Well, I mean.
Speaker 1 (01:17:14):
It is, But at the same time, like I understand
why that mindset's there, because again, we de emphasized we
haven't we we've de emphasized the coolness of of of
you know stem STEM was going to do with your
astronauts because there's also the military cross over there because
that's who we were setting was, you know, navy pilots.
Speaker 2 (01:17:35):
But but yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:17:38):
Just the wonderment of it all. You know, the Internet,
the Internet in tech was there was a wonderment. But
I think that and to some extent, the AI is
probably that now, but it's not as cool a thing.
Remember how cool hackers were with all the eighties the
horrible eighties movies, right, or they're just like was the
one with Angelina Joe Lee?
Speaker 2 (01:17:58):
Yeah, I think that's just called hack, right, And yeah
it's got pendulant in it too. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's
it was. It was hip man. That's why so they
put it into a teen movie.
Speaker 6 (01:18:13):
I mean, you're you're a kid, and you're looking at
this and you're like, I can just make videos for
a living, or I can be like you know, these
these creators that I look up like I I show
speed or whatever, or you know, it looks cool to them.
Remember when you were a kid, Like one of the
coolest things we thought you could be was like working
for the Nintendo Game Hotline.
Speaker 2 (01:18:32):
Do you remember that? How that was like a job
and you're like.
Speaker 6 (01:18:34):
That, You're so cool to be like a game master,
Like people call me up and I'm going to tell
me how to beat that level, you know, Yeah, right.
Speaker 1 (01:18:42):
Dude, I just I remember there was a whole movie
about just going to play Nintendo at a tournament with
a stupid glove, which, by the way, was horrible.
Speaker 2 (01:18:51):
Yeah, the entire movie.
Speaker 6 (01:18:51):
This is a marketing campaign for the power Glove, which
was once again, like the Beats, was absolute trash.
Speaker 2 (01:18:56):
What was it called the Wizard or the Wizard? Yeah,
with Frank Savage. But you know what man I was.
I was. I was the exact age that they were
trying to market to.
Speaker 6 (01:19:06):
So actually that was a bigger obviously add for Super
Mario Brothers three. That was the first time I saw
that gamel I need to play that?
Speaker 2 (01:19:13):
Is that better than the original? Mario A lot of
people would say, so I think it is. Yeah, I
think so too.
Speaker 1 (01:19:21):
All right anyway, yeah, so so I got a whole
list here. These are services they say within the next
ten years, if at the current trajectory and projections, that
they'll be able to utilize space for. So let me
give you a let me give her a better answer.
Space based infrastructure allowing clients to rent space for sensors, cameras,
or satellites rather than building their own.
Speaker 2 (01:19:42):
Okay, that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (01:19:43):
Space tourism, that's already a thing kind of basically right,
Orbital manufacturing and research. This is very interesting. So one
of the things that they've done with the on the
s A station.
Speaker 2 (01:20:01):
Is aged They've aged.
Speaker 1 (01:20:05):
Wine up there to see if it's different. And you
know how wine people are. If you can, if you
can find a niche there, you can charge a bunch
of stuff. So there are people who literally want to
age wine in space. I don't understand why, but I've
seen this brought up multiple times. But I think a
more interesting manufacturer thing up there is there are manufacturing
(01:20:27):
processes that if you do them in space, because the
lack of gravity become far less they need less power,
and also.
Speaker 2 (01:20:35):
Here's the other thing too, for all of you who love.
Speaker 1 (01:20:38):
Solar if you position yourself in space, the Sun's still there,
and in fact, it's arguably easier to capture because you're
not dealing with, you know, the filtering that our atmosphere does.
So if you can do manufacturing their choirs, let's say,
I'm assuming it means for heavy things, right, but now
(01:20:59):
they're not heavy.
Speaker 2 (01:21:00):
Less energy usage.
Speaker 1 (01:21:02):
There's the data stuff I talked about, and the one
that I hate the most, space advertising. Can you imagine
ross you look up at the Moon and it's a
Ford ad, So baby, I don't know. But also you
can you can logo up the shuttles make them look
(01:21:23):
like a NASCAR car. So look, these are just things
people have thought of. How many things do you think
they haven't thought of? People that are far smarter than me.
On this tech stuff, I really feel that there's a
lot of advantage. Oh and then the mining stuff. In fact,
the moon has tons and tons of valuable raw materials.
(01:21:45):
I mean a bunch and I don't have to have
to change the name from rare Earth minerals, but they
have a bunch of those up there. And then they
have helium three, and that's just the moon. You get
into what some of these asteroids are packet.
Speaker 2 (01:21:58):
Do not do it? Not do it? What some of
these meteorites and asteroids are packing that are actions that
are not the Joe Dirt ones.
Speaker 14 (01:22:12):
Yeah it is. It came out of the sky.
Speaker 2 (01:22:18):
There are some advantages there. That's all I'm saying. Just waiting,
all right, move your hand off, Okay, thank you? AnyWho?
Speaker 1 (01:22:30):
Eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four
All right, coming up on the show. We now know
what's going to replace Colbert, So we got that. We
will get to do that here in just a few minutes.
And I like what they're gonna try. Probably should have
tried it earlier. So we'll talk about that. UNC has
(01:22:51):
hired a basketball coach. I know some people are happy,
a lot of people are unhappy.
Speaker 2 (01:22:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:22:58):
I don't know, but they are keeping with their theme apparently,
So we'll get into exactly what that is. Oh, and
there we go. I was in air yesterday. I said
that when the Iranian showed up to where we blew
up the planes that were stuck there in the little
(01:23:21):
mini helicopter, that the only thing that they were really
left to find was one pair of red, white and
blue men's boxers. Apparently that was not the only thing
they found. And now I think we've got to go
get this stuff from them. So I'll tell you what
that is coming up here in just a few minutes
eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four
(01:23:41):
here on the CaCO Day Radio program. Some of our
listeners are very excited the Michigan won last night because
they went to Michigan. Yeah, but maybe I don't know,
maybe you guys could cover next time. I mean, it
didn't hurt me. I took Yukon and got seven points,
so it worked out. But anyone who bet on Michigan
got hosed, even if he got it at six and
(01:24:03):
a half, which is I think where the low was.
It was exactly six, because that's you know, it's all rigged.
But yeah, that's fine. I'm I'm happy for you, Okay,
speaking of happy or not happy, there is quite the
divide in the reaction to unc announcing they intend to
hire Michael Malone. A lot of people thought they were
(01:24:25):
going to hire the coach from the Bulls, Donovan, but
they would have had to wait, and I think they
were getting antsy over at UNC, it's just speculation. I
don't know, because he said that he wasn't going to
make a decision until the end of the NBA season
because he's yeah, he's the coach of the Bulls right now.
Speaker 2 (01:24:43):
The difference is.
Speaker 1 (01:24:44):
That dude's had a lot of success down in was
he Florida or Florida State, I can't remember, but he had
a lot of success down there, whereas Malone is an
NBA coach, he does have a ring, but.
Speaker 2 (01:24:58):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (01:25:00):
Some people argue though, that now that you have this
pile of money to pay kids with almost almost a
business NBA mindset is not as problematic because the argument
is always that you can't recruit. You bring in an
NBA guy, he doesn't have college experience, you can't recruit.
But now if it's just stroking checks and resting on
your name brand, I don't know, maybe he'll have some
(01:25:22):
success there. So but it is interesting this pattern with UNC,
where they're like, all right, let's let's go ahead and
hire people from the pro ranks who had success and
and so and and then you get Belichick and now
you have them alone, and yo, who who knows where
it goes after this?
Speaker 2 (01:25:42):
Actually, wait, hold on, hold on.
Speaker 1 (01:25:45):
UNC has announced that the baseball team has just signed
Aaron Boone.
Speaker 6 (01:25:49):
So yeah, yeah, that's a great pickup. Ross has been
trying to fire him in to the sun. Well, no, no,
it's a great pickup. He's gonna be great, he's gonna
it'll be fined, it'll be fine. How many of rings
does he have?
Speaker 2 (01:26:04):
But as manager? So I think that's something you have
to have to actually get hired. So that's that's fake
news I just gave you, but it would be in
keeping with tradition, so we'll see. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:26:18):
A whole lot of coaching change is going on all
at a lot of ACC schools right, a lot of
other schools too.
Speaker 2 (01:26:25):
We almost have a coaches pipeline problem. So check this out.
CBS has announced.
Speaker 1 (01:26:30):
What they will fill Colbert's late show time slot with,
and you know what I think this is. I don't
know why they didn't try this sooner Byron Allen's comics Unleashed.
So this is this is a half hour program. They've
got a bunch of these. You know, it's not new.
They got a bunch of these just sitting around and
it's a half hour.
Speaker 2 (01:26:50):
So they'll have to do back to back episodes.
Speaker 1 (01:26:52):
But I think that's a brilliant idea that maybe you
should tell jokes in this time slot.
Speaker 2 (01:26:57):
I think people might like that.
Speaker 1 (01:26:59):
I'm not a I'm not a TV executive, but yeah,
I seem to remember they used to tell jokes. I
think back when I was a kid, and back when
most viewer kids. But yeah, and you know what it is.
I think that it also is a pretty good indicator
that these late night talk shows are not long for
(01:27:21):
this world man, which makes sense, I guess, because I mean,
you've seen the ratings decline. We talked about all the
reasons that happens, and a lot of it's going to
be political partisan, but there there's other other shifting demographics
to that clearly have played into this, and uh that'll
uh see May twenty second. Uh ROSSI do you realize
(01:27:46):
how insufferable Colbert's last week is going to be? Because
he's at that point it doesn't matter. But if you
think he's even slightly restrained right now, he can do
whatever he wants. It's just it's it's going to be
absolutely watchable, absolutely unwatchable. And you know what they're gonna
do too, is they're gonna bring in all the other
late night hosts to come in and do that kind
(01:28:08):
of like the kind of like they were doing with
uh some of the uh uh with uh one of
my uh with Conan, Right, they had some of the
other hosts go on because it was supposed to bury
the hatchet over the whole Conan the Leno coming back thing,
and then it was just awkward. So, I I don't know,
I don't know when has this normally been airing. So
(01:28:31):
it's been airing after Colbert's show. Okay, So yeah, I
guess if you're a super late night or it will
not be unfamiliar to you and it's just gonna be comics.
It's gonna be uh, it's gonna be old school Comedy Central.
And I'm here for remember what Comedy Central came up?
What an amazing cable channel that was.
Speaker 6 (01:28:51):
Yeah, you could turn it on and any time of
the day if it was This is all pre YouTube stuff, right,
you know, yeah Netflix, It was just different versions of
the same show. But you would have a host and
you would have like different stand up routines and be
you know, guy perform He would leave, another guy would
come up, Another guy. That's all was all day, yeah,
and then the old SNL they would so basically when
(01:29:11):
they launched, they had that, they had the comics Old SNL.
They had for you guys who listened for a while,
you know, our old news guy who Ross is in
constant communication with Steve Saddah. Steve Sadhal was part of
a show on the initial Comedy Central called Let's Bowl.
Speaker 1 (01:29:26):
I don't know if you guys remember that. Yeah, so
he was like the sideline reporter guy. And if you
don't remember, the premise is so absurd. I don't know
you could get it greenlit now. But it was like
a mash up of bowling for dollars and people's Court.
Speaker 2 (01:29:44):
I don't like.
Speaker 1 (01:29:45):
They would bring people on and it had this uh,
you guys probably don't know the word ufta ufta if
you live up Minnesota, Wisconsin.
Speaker 2 (01:29:53):
It's this whole polka kind of vibe.
Speaker 1 (01:29:55):
Thing and and and they were able to build that
in the show this And by the way, I watched
that show before I ever met Steve sat All, who
he was a news guy up in Minneapolis, so I
knew him coming down here and it just so happened
he had left Minneapolis moved to the Triangle. So when
we launched the station here, we had an emergency need
for a news guy and we reached out to Steve.
Speaker 2 (01:30:18):
So it was great.
Speaker 1 (01:30:19):
But yeah, he hosted a show or he was on
a show there, and people would have disputes and then
they would come in and bowl to settle the disputes.
And there was a whole bunch of other kitchy stuff
in there. But I remember that, yeah, the tel show that.
Speaker 2 (01:30:36):
Yeah, David Tail at Night. I forget that.
Speaker 6 (01:30:38):
The show was called where he would walk around like
cities at night and find stuff to do or in
like different clubs, and then you had kids in the
Hall was on there too.
Speaker 2 (01:30:44):
Yeah. Comedy Central when it first came on, man, it
was great. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:30:48):
It was kind of like the History Channel. I mean,
just in the sense that it transitioned greatly to some
you know, history channel that becomes like the reality TV
show channel. Then you got to go to H two
if you're lucky, and then they screwed that up too.
Then they put aliens on it, which I didn't mind
(01:31:08):
as much because that stuff can be quite interesting.
Speaker 2 (01:31:13):
All right, let me pop over to this.
Speaker 1 (01:31:16):
So in addition, excuse me too, a men's red, white
and blue boxers. Apparently there was one other thing, according
to photos, that the Iranians who showed up to the
site there were able to harvest, and that is apparently
we left a bunch of beef jerky there. I know, right, Teriaki,
(01:31:39):
how is the military's beef jerky?
Speaker 2 (01:31:43):
Is it good?
Speaker 1 (01:31:43):
I mean, it just looks like a beef stick in
the you know, the Sandra plastic wrap. So for whatever reason,
they also got some beef jerky, and at this point,
I think we've got to go get it.
Speaker 2 (01:31:51):
These guys don't deserve beef jerky. That is manna from
heaven right there. Man.
Speaker 1 (01:31:57):
But yeah, if that's the extent that they retrieved it
was a pair of boxers and the Teraioki stick, I
think I'm okay with that.
Speaker 2 (01:32:04):
I'm just fine with that.
Speaker 1 (01:32:06):
And speaking of a wrestling connections, see what I did
there with the slim gym thing. It was very refreshing
this morning to find out that a former pro wrestler
actually actually in fact is where did I just put this?
Do do do Do?
Speaker 2 (01:32:24):
Do do do? I just had the dang thing all right?
Hold on, del did I close the dang window on this.
Speaker 1 (01:32:35):
Oh no, here it is Alberto del Rio, who actually
is from Mexico. Because I don't know if you know this.
Sometimes people are not from where the character is from.
But apparently Alberto del Rio is. And we know this
because he was just arrested for alleged domestic violence in Mexico.
The four time world champion was accused of assaulting his wife,
(01:32:58):
who called nine to one to one filed a complaint.
Speaker 2 (01:33:00):
And here we are.
Speaker 1 (01:33:02):
Yeah, it'll patron Alberto del Rio, it'll patron you know what.
Speaker 2 (01:33:10):
Like here's here's why.
Speaker 1 (01:33:12):
At least, talking about wrestling in Latin America is just
like radio ross. Do you know the word for a
wrestler in Spanish?
Speaker 2 (01:33:20):
Uh, luchador? Correct.
Speaker 7 (01:33:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:33:23):
Do you know what a radio host name is in Spanish?
I don't, lucator, so basically the same thing. Yes, yeah,
luchador lucator so, uh, you know, I don't know why
that makes me feel better, but it does, all right,
race stage jic.
Speaker 2 (01:33:38):
We don't know what his wrestling name would be.
Speaker 7 (01:33:43):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:33:45):
You ever, I mean, you're big enough, you ever think
about it? No, think about doing the wrestling, you know?
Speaker 3 (01:33:50):
Now?
Speaker 7 (01:33:50):
You just gave me a flashback back in high school.
We actually do you know how in high school.
Speaker 8 (01:33:54):
You do those like cheesy events to try to raise
money for the football team or something. So we do
a WrestleMania kind of thing. I forgot if I had
it where my name was, but we did, like you know,
the fake wrestling stuff and this and that.
Speaker 7 (01:34:07):
So, yeah, they ever have.
Speaker 1 (01:34:08):
A weather themed wrestler like hit people with a doppler
or anything. Probably, I don't know, did they.
Speaker 7 (01:34:16):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:34:17):
I don't do that. I don't recall that. But it
should have meant it that if it.
Speaker 8 (01:34:22):
Wasn't, it should have yeah, like almost like a weather man. Yeahs,
hold on, let's see what they know on the weather
seemed wrestler.
Speaker 7 (01:34:33):
They got a curious.
Speaker 2 (01:34:34):
People with a pizza dough now, so yeah, well.
Speaker 7 (01:34:39):
I mean it's possible. Several professional typhoon.
Speaker 6 (01:34:44):
No we avalanche typhoon doesn't he was part of the
natural disasters. He was like a five thousand pound dude
with a baby.
Speaker 7 (01:34:51):
What about avalanche?
Speaker 2 (01:34:53):
Well no, no, no, no, those that's weather related. I'm saying.
A dude who walks.
Speaker 6 (01:34:56):
Out like like with a green behind him, Yeah, behind
him with a clicker and it.
Speaker 7 (01:35:03):
Kind of he whips you with the clicker, Yeah, like
zaps you with.
Speaker 2 (01:35:08):
Yeah, the problem would be amazing.
Speaker 1 (01:35:10):
I'm coming in like that five hurricane. Oh dude missed
up called Vince Mcwell, you can't call him, call to you.
Speaker 2 (01:35:17):
Whoever's take this again? All right?
Speaker 8 (01:35:20):
Yeah right anyway, Yeah, that's a that's pretty simple. See
more sunshine as a day goes on, mid upper sixties today,
chili thirties tonight, and then tomorrow we're a little cool
with the northeast breeze. Are kind of wedged in just
a bit, but a better looking day, some more sunshine
than today. Thursday Friday looked good with the warming trend
continuing Thursday Sunday, mid upper sixties, Friday into the little
(01:35:42):
bit seventies eighties over the weekend. Looks good for AUGUSTA.
I'm gonna stand by that forecast. I don't think anything's
going to change over the next several days are locked
into the dry weather.
Speaker 1 (01:35:52):
Love it, love it, Thank you, sir. I'll let you
get back to your wrestling persona and we will be
right back morning.
Speaker 9 (01:35:58):
Casey shares a major insurance company needs We're thinking CVS
United Health and human are soaring this morning after Medicare announcement.
Will pay private insurans almost two and a half percent
more next year. It's a big improvement over the initial
rates the agency proposed back in January. With insurers lobbying
for a larger increase to cover rising medical expenses, the
payment changed case. He expected at up to over thirteen
(01:36:19):
billion dollars in additional payments to Medicare advantage plans next year.
Amazon striking a new delivery deal with the US Postal Service.
The e commerce giant will be cutting back the number
of packages it ships through the postal service by around
twenty percent, but it still comes out to more than
a billion a year. Getting a deal done with Amazon
insures that the postal service maintains most of its business
(01:36:40):
from its largest customer. Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman
is making a bid to buy Universal Music, the world's
largest music company, to deal worth sixty four billion dollars.
Universal represents artists we're talking Taylor Swift, trade Sabrina Carpenter.
Acman is proposing a shake but the record label, with
Acman saying the stock price has taken a hit due
to a number of issues unrelated to the performance of
(01:37:02):
its music business. Shale drillers in the US expected to
ramp up output due to the surge in crude prices.
That's according to a number of observers, including City Group
and the Energy Information Administration. The Dallas Fed says oil
prices need to be somewhere between sixty two and seventy
dollars a barrel to turn a profit on new wells.
President Trump has also been calling for higher oil production.
(01:37:23):
Back in February, Pepsi announced that it planned to slash
prices by up to fifteen percent on some snacks. The
maker of Cheetos, Doritos, and Lays says by this summer,
you don't know if the discounts will be enough to
boost sales. Pepsi says tests and select cities last year
generated a pretty good increase in volume and also by
a green to lower prices. Pepsi says it game the
double digit increase in shelf space at major retailers such
(01:37:46):
as Costco, Walmart, and Target. Shares of AMC Entertainment soaring
by more than twelve percent yesterday, as a theater giant
saw a surge in ticket sales and concessions over the
long Easter weekends, boosted by the Super Mario Galaxy movie,
The Equal gross more than three hundred and seventy million
dollars at the box office. AMC said more than six
million people globally visited its theaters this past weekends. And finally,
(01:38:10):
KC DOW futures currently are down close to four tens
to one percent, SMP futures are down close to a
half percent, and as that future is down close to
two thirds of one percent.
Speaker 1 (01:38:20):
I don't understand you people up there. I just assume
with the Trump saying it's bridge and bridge and power Day,
that markets to be crazy.
Speaker 2 (01:38:29):
Before the open. Yeah, so I guess I'll have to
lose their mind in a little bit. Well, you know what,
here's here's why.
Speaker 9 (01:38:34):
Like you knock out bridges, you knock out power, you
knock out this and that. You know, Uran's not going
to stop blockading the straight oh horn moves right, so
oil oil is not going to move through it. And
you know, people are very fickle when it comes to
oil prices and the you know, the movement of oil,
so any little thing will make that price sky high.
Speaker 1 (01:38:52):
Yeah, so I guess nothing changes, all right, Thank you? Sir,
appreciate it, appreciate the report. They're Bloomberg News, Dan Schwartzman.
Let me grab a quick phone call before we get
out of here.
Speaker 2 (01:39:00):
Donna, what's up, Good morning, Casey.
Speaker 8 (01:39:04):
You were talking about.
Speaker 4 (01:39:06):
The minerals on the Moon? Yeah? Have you ever seen
the movie Moon?
Speaker 2 (01:39:13):
I don't. Is that the one that's like a fake documentary?
That one?
Speaker 4 (01:39:17):
No, it's not, samn Rockwell and spoiler alert. Uh he
comes to find out that he's a clone.
Speaker 2 (01:39:24):
Oh, yes, I have seen it.
Speaker 1 (01:39:25):
Yeah, he works on some drilling rig up there. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I have seen that.
Speaker 4 (01:39:29):
Yeah. We're gonna have to get clones.
Speaker 7 (01:39:31):
All right.
Speaker 2 (01:39:32):
So Donna wants to enslave clones, gotcha clones and cats? No,
we don't. Now if you want to send all the
cats to the moon, I'm with.
Speaker 1 (01:39:42):
You, no, and we should do it now for that
you can't, can't.
Speaker 2 (01:39:49):
I'm sorry. Off to the moon with it, all right, Donna,
Thanks for the call there.
Speaker 1 (01:39:53):
What you know food supply breaks? No, I'm just saying
you got you got some options there, all right. And
by the way, just to illustrate how much metal here
in this closing minute it is.
Speaker 2 (01:40:05):
I don't know if you know this.
Speaker 1 (01:40:07):
We've done this a couple of times where we've essentially
launched a craft whose only job is to slam into
the moon and the moon rings like a bell, and
in fact, it like surprisingly long.
Speaker 2 (01:40:20):
Time that it did it.
Speaker 1 (01:40:22):
It really surprised the scientists who did it, just to
illustrate how much metal's in there, and it's metal that's
not moving around or being dispersed because it doesn't have
geothermal so who knows what's all in there now. Ross
says that's what people use to justify the Moon being
a base where Hitler and dinosaurs living or something.
Speaker 2 (01:40:39):
But I don't know.
