Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
To have you long CaCO Day Radio program phone number
eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven four.
Sou a little speech or something last night. Huh, little Donald,
Little Donald Trump getting up there. Not quite State of
the Union, but I guess it is the longest presidential

(00:21):
congressional address ever. I believe is that I saw that
and I wanted to make sure that that was that. Well,
he went on a while, and poor Ross has been
dubbing audio all morning. So but yeah, that's how that works.
So boy, oh boy, where do I even start on this?

(00:42):
I have a question how this This is the thing
that I understand that we kind of have a process
for when the president speaking, whoever the president is all right,
go back to Obama or Bush or Clinton. It does matter.
And there has been ups and downs in decorum, but

(01:07):
for the most part, during most years, you have a
situation where there's applause lines for everybody, you know, things mutually,
where both sides of the aisle are like, hey, you know,
America's pretty awesome. Then you know everyone everyone applauds. Usually again,

(01:28):
these are these are nostalgic, some of these thoughts. And
then something that might be a key partisan issue for
that president and their side of Congress. They'll be like, hey,
we want to do this thing. And then so you know,
half the gallery applauds, the other half doesn't. And then

(01:48):
that's the show, right, Oh, we're not looking at we're
not applauding for this. And then there's something else on
the flip side, and like that's been the way that
it's been. And yes, you know people will sit there
and tell you, oh, well, this it all broke down.
When was it? Joe Wilson yelled, you lie at Barack Obama.

(02:10):
But really that was that's really tame compared to stuff
that had happened going back in the day. Remember they
used to beat each other with canes on the floor
of the Senate. So ups and downs. So with that
in mind, whatever you decide to do is strategic. So
you wear white, you wear pink, you want to send

(02:31):
a message. Who you invite as a guest is very
telling because that's supposed to send a message as well.
And so they you know, they feast upon that throughout
most of the day leading up to something like this.
And then if if you're gonna have any show or
form of protest, you gotta kind of figure out what

(02:53):
that's gonna look like. So yesterday, prior to this thing
kicking off, the best that they could seemingly up with was,
let's get a bunch of kazoos and eggs and bingo
cards and Al Green, who, as much as he's advocated
over the years that we all stay together clearly as
in a divisive mode, might be a different Al Green.

(03:15):
My point is if that was organized yesterday, that might
you guys, that might have been one of the worst days.
I don't just mean the speech, but I also mean
those damn videos like who has your who has your

(03:37):
pr contract? Democrat Party?

Speaker 2 (03:40):
Who is it?

Speaker 1 (03:42):
Because they're rovenue blind man from that video? Which how
did you not think? I think the number is what
twenty five? They settled on twenty five senators doing the
same video in the same tween with a Twitch channel
for you know, where they're holding a little mic out

(04:02):
in front and they're leaning in, and they're using the
same graphics and you can play them side by side
and they eerily sound the same because they are the same,
which which shows you how disingenuous they are to not
knowing whether it's okay to applaud for a kid with cancer.

(04:23):
The whole thing was I can't fathom how it was
handled yesterday. And you had lots of opportunity to push
back on try I get it, you don't like the guy.
You had all these things, and then the way that
you chose to play it yesterday was to not have
the ability one to come up with twenty five individual

(04:45):
videos on a topic. You had to cut and paste that,
and I know a lot of people won't see it
that you send it out to, but a lot of
them will and it just feels ick, okay, case of
the icks. That's what the kids say. And then to
watch the inability that adults have to take a topic

(05:06):
or a phrase or a word that's put in front
of him and decide how you feel about it and
then react accordingly because you're unclear what the coordination is like.
People see that stuff and it's not normal. People understand
why people do things for partisan reasons, but they don't

(05:28):
understand why they do things that just seem inane, stupid,
and unnecessary. Because we do this. I understand, I'm talking
a little in circles. I'm gonna play some audio, but
it's just it's the thing that's stuck out the most
to me yesterday, like you just clearly the last election

(05:51):
didn't go well for you at the federal level, okay.

Speaker 3 (05:55):
And.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
He gives you more than enough to key off every
single day. And it's it's just the worst messaging because
it's it's wildly unrelatable. It's what was wrong with Tim
Walls and Kamala Harris for that matter. And I understand
you're saying I was Trump relatable. He's a billionaire, he's

(06:20):
you know, he's got a tam blah blahlah. I'm telling
you immensely more relatable, not necessarily because people want to
hang out with him, but they understand him. I don't
know what the hell that was. I was watching yesterday,
Like I don't I I don't even understand the strategy
of what was going down yesterday. So the president's up

(06:41):
there talking and you can't decide whether it's what what
if if it's something you like or you don't like,
And so you oddly are sitting there and you're like, here,
here's a kid, Let me let me help you out here. Okay,
let me let me give you a little human need
lesson because I understand too that it can be nuanced

(07:03):
so you know, if it's things you like, then you applaud. Okay, right,
it's very simple. So if if the speaker is saying
something that you like, you know, oh you know, I
like that, okay, and then you would like chicken wings,
all right, the oh the president just talked about you.
I like chicken wings. Okay, that's pretty good. And then uh,

(07:24):
you know, if it's things you don't like, like uh,
zoom meetings, right, oh boo hate zoom meetings. I'm trying
to do this very apolitical. And then there's sometimes there's
things where you need context, like look at this sweet kitten.
Isn't this ah? Is this adorable little kitten? Right? But
then you're like, ah, well what happened with the kid?
And you're like, ah, the kitten was in a smelting accident.

(07:46):
You're all see, and then you want to make sure
you had you had and start applauding because you you've
got the context. You should not applaud kittens in smelting accidents.
Or here's a little boy with cancer. Okay, all right,
you're gonna go to context the context here, right, Uh,
here's a little boy with cancer who's cancer is getting

(08:08):
better and who dreams of being a Secret Service agent,
and we're gonna we're gonna make him an honorary Secret
Service So you can applaud that. That's okay, you can
applaud the kid with cancer. He gets to be the
honorary Secret Service agent. Now if it's the same little
kid with cancer instead of being a Secret Service agent.
He wants to meet John Cena. And then while he's

(08:30):
meeting John Cena, John Cena starts, you know, beating his
face in well, hold on, hold on there, Trump, right,
that's because you would have had to rate for a
way for context. But in this case, it's just a
little boy. Sue's battling cancer and really really digs on
the Secret Service and was super excited. Right he's thirteen.

(08:54):
His name is DJ Daniels and not knowing how to
deal with that. Yesterday was just weird man, which just
and and I get it. The President is pointing, he's
got people there. He talked about Lake and Riley. He
had the uh it was that January. Little John was

(09:15):
the mom's name with the with the girl on the
gender ideology stuff. He honored uh compretour, the man who
was shot and killed, the firefighter who was shot and
killed while the during the assassination attempt. Like these are layups, bro,
This is simple stuff. And what I saw yesterday was

(09:39):
just about the worst way to handle it I think
I've probably seen in a while. And that's saying something
like the bar was really low yesterday, but somehow we
got under it. Somehow we had to remove a member
of Congress because he's waving a cane around like a lunatic.

(10:01):
And know, and the bingo cards and the paddles and
the and the whole thing, man, was just weird. So
what was what was Trump talking about? Everything? Like everything,
the thing went on forever. So we'll dive in. We'll
get a little analysis too. Got Congressman brad Not he'll

(10:22):
join us coming up at seven oh five. We'll see
what he thinks. We got a lot of a lot
of stuff to get into. But the whole thing was surreal, man,
This looney Tunes all right, six seventeen back in just
a few Hey, I don't I was. I don't know
that there's anything that's really been a focal point of

(10:43):
the first well, you know, six six weeks or so
of this administration or whatever it is that there wasn't
talked about, and and and again I understand that politically
people have disagreements, so for what he's doing, I got it.
But like, yes, it was a really bad pr day.

(11:07):
The whole thing was just weird, man, and like and
it starts. It started with that video, this video where
they're all sitting there, they're all saying the same thing.
They have all the same graphics. You can literally play
them all at the same.

Speaker 4 (11:24):
Time immediately bring prices down starting on watch.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Heard it's it's it's it's striking man, and they're all
leaning forward. They got that lava leer style mic, you know,
the little one that you clip on a lapel, but
it's the fuzzy one and they're just holding it as uh,

(11:53):
you know, as the kids do on the TikTok and
and it just it smacks disingenuous, even if look what
they're arguing is clearly the position that they have. The
whole thing was weird, and Elon turned it into a

(12:13):
truck you have away. Yesterday, right when the video came out,
he posts he posted thing He's like, whoever figures out
who wrote this, I'll give you a free uh a
free truck. The people are run. Looks like Corey Booker did.
It looks like I think a guy's gonna get a
free truck get himself was a cyber truck. I mean,

(12:35):
it was just it's just the weirdest timeline all day,
every day, and then it's time for the speech. It's
time for the speech, and you know it's gonna be schlocky,
it's gonna be nationalist. It's gonna be but not in
the bad way, but in you know, in the America
first way that you know what's coming, so you you

(12:56):
also know how to prepare for this. And the way
that you used to prepare is you had interesting messaging.
The same day. You brought people who were interesting guests
that you could then put in front of reporters to
make your point, like, ah see this person, this person's
a veteran who voted for Trump and used to work
for this department and now he doesn't. Isn't Trump bad?

(13:20):
Like I expect all of that stuff? That wasn't it? Man?
That was a temper tantrum and props and stinky gd
Vance looked like every father at every gathering whose kids
are kind of a holes, right, and he's got to
sort him out, but he can't do it verbally, so

(13:42):
he's got to do it just with the look he
was going to. That's the look my mom used to
give us, and that's the one you didn't want. And
Speaker Johnson's doing that. Meanwhile, Trump's up there droning on
about the same stuff he normally talks.

Speaker 4 (13:58):
Members of the United States Congress, thank you very much,
and to my fellow citizens, America is back.

Speaker 1 (14:12):
All right, pep rally atmosphere. If you were a little wife,
GOP's gonna they're gonna clap, okay whatever, We're not breaking
the ground here. I didn't think it was interesting that
they had that USA chant ready to go several times
when disruption was afoot. It was very effective.

Speaker 4 (14:35):
Six weeks ago, I stood beneath the dome of this
capital and proclaimed the dawn of the Golden Age of America.
From that moment dawn, there's been nothing but swift and
unrelenting action to usher in the greatest and most successful
era in the history of our country.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
I gotta care who you are.

Speaker 1 (14:59):
Could you argue it hasn't been just neck break speed.
Even if you hate everything that's happening, you have to
recognize the speed of it. We'll have Congressman Brad Not on,
so he was there for Seid Insanity yesterday. So we'll
hear from somebody who was in the room coming up

(15:21):
here in thirty minutes on the show. All right, So,
like I said, Trump spoke for an hour and forty
forty five two hours. I mean it was it was lengthy,
and it ran the gamut, and there was there were shenanigans,
and there were disruptions, and there were just weird bingo

(15:46):
cards which I don't even mind the bingo cards as much,
but more for people watching rather than Congress. But members
of Congress put them out. Tom Tillis stole our idea
and did it. So whatever that being said, what you
saw pold very well. And I don't just mean in

(16:09):
Republican circles. Now take the polling for whatever it's worth,
But seemingly the reaction from the public was not one
that you know, turned in some major negative way for Trump.
I don't know that it was a huge boost, but
it was well received along the lines of where the
approval ratings are now. People liked what they heard for

(16:33):
the most part. Um, all right, I can't hear my
button bar So let me do this real quick. Ross
has dubbing some other stuff in, so hang on, all right,
So let's get back to it because I'm gonna need
the whole damn show to cover all this, because again
he talked about everything.

Speaker 4 (16:51):
They come back, the likes of which the world has
never witnessed and perhaps will never witness again, than anything
like it.

Speaker 1 (17:03):
Good does Trump love him some truck?

Speaker 4 (17:05):
Presidential election of November fifth was a mandate like has
not been seen in many decades. We won all seven
swing states, giving us an electoral college.

Speaker 5 (17:18):
Rectory of three hundred and twelve votes.

Speaker 4 (17:35):
We won the popular vote by big numbers.

Speaker 5 (17:39):
And won counties in our country.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
What do you And this is what I'm talking about.
So you saw the one he's literally just stating facts there,
he's I mean, he's in bell you know.

Speaker 2 (18:01):
Uh uh.

Speaker 1 (18:02):
There's a little bit of puffery, right, a little the
way that he's delivered it. He's but he's stating facts.
He won all the swing states. He told you the
electoral college number he got, and then he said he
won the popular vote like that isn't in dispute, right,
So when when this this pre planned disruptive behavior was

(18:23):
out there Republicans already with the USA USA thing. And
by the way, it's it irritated the hell out of
the MSNBC panel. I'm not gonna play all the audio
because it's it's like five six minutes. But you had
Michael Steele there, you had Simone Sanders and like they
were upset, they were upset with Democrats for not like

(18:45):
having a way to not look stupid doing that yesterday. So,
I mean, just just a disaster in the minds of
the people who were doing analysis on this stuff, which
then lets Trump's stuff just stand. You're not even arguing
the stuff that he's throwing out there, You're arguing the

(19:07):
strategy of disrupting him wasn't done well. And if that's
the post analysis I'm going to see on MSNBC with
their you know, eight person I hate Trump panel, I'd
say he accomplished whatever he wanted to accomplish yesterday.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
For the first time in modern history.

Speaker 1 (19:26):
Well, here's where it starts to get pretty.

Speaker 6 (19:28):
The country is headed in the right direction, then the
wrong direction. Cop it's an astonishing record twenty seven point swing,
the most ever.

Speaker 1 (19:41):
All right, so so things are getting dicey, and then
and then you have Representative Al Green, who he represents Texas,
one of the metros of Texas. I don't care which
maybe it's housedon, it doesn't matter. So he's up there,
he's got a cane and he's decided he's going to
go full Heckler's veto right where he's going to start

(20:06):
screaming so nobody can accomplish what they're trying to accomplish.
And to the credit of Mike Johnson, you know, even
though he was gabbling away and trying to restore order,
was he was willing to do what a lot of
people have wondered why it hasn't been done before in
past States of the Union or other events where you

(20:28):
have elected officials, right, not members of the gallery who
elected officials probably let in, but rather elected officials who
have chosen to disrupt the proceedings. They utilize the sergeant
at arms, which is what the sergeant at arms is.

Speaker 2 (20:43):
For forty one point job.

Speaker 7 (20:51):
Members are directed to uphold and maintained the corps in
the House and to seize any.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
Further disruptions that you're warning.

Speaker 7 (21:05):
Members are engaged in wilful and continuing breach of decorum,
and the Chair is prepared to direct the sergeant at
arms to restore order to the joint session.

Speaker 1 (21:23):
Look, at this point, this is the battle for who
gets to look like the adults in the room. And
this is where, strategically, I don't understand why Democrats press.

Speaker 7 (21:34):
Forward, mister Graen, take your seat. Take your seat, sir,
take your seat. One of the members continue to engage

(21:57):
in wilful and concert the disruption or proper decorum. A
chair now directs a sartant at arms to restore order.
Remove just gentlemen.

Speaker 1 (22:06):
From the chaybird, all right, and then you know, and
then remove him so he can literally go in the
hallway and send a fundraising email, which which he did,
probably more than one, but I did see one. Yeah,
I Because again, it's it's not necessarily how the wonks
are looking at it, it's how the American public, who

(22:28):
may have tuned in, who is kind of plugged in
but not super plugged in. I mean, obviously they hear
the big stories. There's a lot going on right now,
but you know, they tuned in to see what was what,
and so the the litmus test is how does this
look to somebody who's watching it? And it looks dumb.

(22:53):
It looks childish, It looks like there's no plan there,
when clearly there was so much planning that went into yesterday.
We had all the stories, We had the stupid video
they made. We had the Axios article about I don't
Know Nunish, which talked about the bingo cards and the
egg cartons and the paddles and the noise makers and

(23:16):
everything that they were planning on doing. It was all
out there. It had the whole day to really test
audiences because they talked about it, and yet you still
went through with it. It was amazing to me.

Speaker 4 (23:30):
The media and our friends and the Democrat Party kept
saying we needed new legislation, we must have legislation to
secure the border, but it turned out that all we
really needed was a new president.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
The members don't lie.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
Remember, remember you had crossings that were on some days
ten thousand people a day. At the of it, you
were averaging like five thousand for most of the Biden
administration a day. What was it the city of Pittsburgh
per annual? Was it annually the city of Pittsburgh or something,

(24:14):
whatever the comparable number is. And then that number went
from a height of ten thousand plus per day, averaging
five thousand per day where Trump was averaging last week,
what was it like one hundred and fifty. And so
the point that he's making resonates with people. They're like, yeah,
they didn't pass any legislation, and all of a sudden,

(24:35):
it's not a thing anymore. He's absolutely right again, far
better prepared this time around than last time around, making
sure to get in these things, these sound bites, these
little points that will resonate with people, not people who
are the hyper partisan people, but just people who were people.

Speaker 4 (24:58):
Man the hours of taking the oath of office, I
declared a national emergency on our southern border, and I
deployed the US military and border patrol to repel the
invasion of our country. And what a job they've done
as a result. Illegal border crossings last month were by

(25:18):
far the lowest ever recorded ever.

Speaker 2 (25:27):
You can't you can't argue that point with dirty look
and pisus.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
This is what it is.

Speaker 4 (25:37):
They heard my words and they chose not to come
much easier that way.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
Anyway, the whole thing, and we're I think maybe a
third through the audio. So we'll bang through this throughoute
the day. Like I said, we can get calls if
you want eight eight eight nine three four seven eight
seven four. We'll talk to the congressman coming up. That'll
be at eight oh five. So uh, let's do this.
We'll go ahead and take a break, Yeah, because I
want to package this, but we'll get into the again,

(26:10):
the inability to just process whatever the thing is and
then decide whether you're going to clap for the thing.
You're not going to clap for the thing. You don't
have to clap for the thing. But I have to
understand that you're able to process the things being put
out in front of you. And the problem is, if
you're a Democratic member of Congress, there's probably nothing there
you liked yesterday. And because he covered so many different

(26:35):
topics and so many things and put him in very
clear and concise talking points, I think he was wildly
effective communicating this, even if you think he's wrong, even
if you think he's embellishing, even if you think that
eventually this decision will be horrible. You know, Twitter yesterday
with all the tariff stuff, was these insane tweets. And again,

(26:58):
I don't know why the algorithm now feeds me all
the insane Democrat stuff right where you know the Twitter activists, right,
not just members of Congress stating their opinion. Yeah, or
the uh you know, the former Social Security director what's
his name, It doesn't matter. The Democrat who's like, they're

(27:21):
going to stop, they're not gonna be able to send
Social Security checks within the next sixty to ninety days.
I mean, they were just posting this stuff out there
based on everything that was going on yesterday. It was
it was the it was the the chicken little strategy
all day yesterday. And President didn't even address any of

(27:42):
that stuff yesterday, just went in there, kept on message,
did his thing. It was again I don't necessarily believe
the polls, but it came across as very effective, if
if not really really long. So we'll get into more.
We've got green policy stuff. Gulf of America. Trump called

(28:04):
Elizabeth Warren Pocahontas again. I wish he'd go with liah Watha.
I prefer that, but here we were stuck in this
and we'll continue as really a lot of the trans stuff,
I think is where most of the news cycle is
going to go this morning. So we'll get into it. Inflation,
everything else coming up CaCO Day Radio program, right, get

(28:26):
back into the little bit of Trump audio, and then
we chat with Congressman Brad Nott. That'll be a seven
o five coming up Friday, just a couple of days
from now. South Carolina is going to be executing somebody.
This guy, what.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
Did he do?

Speaker 1 (28:42):
He used a bat to beat his girlfriend's parents to death,
but not quickly, took his time. Basically had one in
one room, one in the other. The girlfriend's there, she's
freaking out, you'll never leave me, blah blah blah. And
so he beats her parents to death and he was
going to kill her, but she was able to escape anyway.
Just so we're clear as to why they're going to

(29:02):
grease this dude. But what's interesting is they're doing firing squad.
And so I'm reading an article. I'm just a little curious,
and in South Carolina, I just assumed when they do
firing squads, like in Utah, it's deputies or its prison officials.
That's not the case in South Carolina. According to CBS

(29:26):
News did a big piece on this and they were
just talking about the specifics of it. It's random volunteers.
It's three people who have been randomly selected who volunteered
because I guess they want to shoot a dude. Who
get to shoot this guy? And they all have live ammo.
I guess the way that they do it down there. Now,

(29:48):
they get a little chair, they mark the heart. You got
your ram on. But yeah, so in South Carolina, it's
like the Wonka ticket or something, and you get and
then that's it. And they don't tell you who they are,
really anything about them other than they're volunteers. So just
a little something I had no idea about. But here
we go, all right, real quickly, I want to play

(30:08):
these two pieces of audio. So was I was talking
about the young boy with cancer variety wants to be
Secret Service agent. You had that moment and again this
is the part where you got a human This is
the part where you got to figure out, Okay, there's
some things maybe I should applaud for, not that the
kid has cancer, but because this.

Speaker 4 (30:30):
Right and tonight, DJ, we're going to do you the
biggest honor of them all. I am asking our new
Secret Service Director Sean Curran to officially make you an
agent of the United States Secret Service.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
Right, So he did a make alation literally right there. Hey,
you hear clapping, but you hear clapping because the GOP
members are classing. How is this remotely problem atic? That's
what I want to know for the record, And this
is disgusting.

Speaker 8 (31:07):
The President made a spectacle, yeah, out of praising a
young man who serves thus far survived pediatric cancer, as
if the President had something.

Speaker 9 (31:19):
To do with that.

Speaker 8 (31:19):
This was in the midst of him praising Doge doche cuts,
among other things, have cut off funding for ongoing research
into pediatric cancer.

Speaker 1 (31:29):
All right, Well, and just so we're clear, this is
the this is the big lie, because there was a
standalone pediatric cancer bill and then they jammed it in
that omnibus so that they could claim that the GOP
doesn't like kids with cancer. Right, So that whole canard
from like two months ago. But that's your reaction to
revisiting a small portion of what was nearly a two

(31:52):
hour speech yesterday, and it had all of the little
side stories, very State of the Union ee right, Yeah,
applause lines, you had non applause lines. You had to
see what the opposition was going to do, and it
got crazy. And in fact, one of the congressional members,
Al Green from Texas, he's waving his cane around. They

(32:14):
threw him out of the damn chamber. But like the
analysis and the polling that you saw on this look
like it was a positive night for President Trump and
the GOP for that matter. One of the members of
Congress is our own bread not He joins us this morning.

(32:34):
How you doing today, sir?

Speaker 9 (32:37):
Yes, Sara, how are you?

Speaker 1 (32:39):
I'm good. Did you find it difficult not to get
thrown out of the House Chamber yesterday because some of
your colleagues, did.

Speaker 9 (32:47):
You know, it was a privilege to be there? We
were all disappointed, those of us who were sitting on
the Republican side. It must have been forty five seconds
and Al Green stood up and was berating the pre
as that and treat peopled. I think even some of
the Democrats were a little bit mortified at what they saw.
But all in all, it was a just a blip.

(33:08):
I thought the speech was wonderful. Of the energy on
the Republican side, this was pretty high, and it was
it was a privilege to be there.

Speaker 1 (33:16):
What what do you think it accomplished? Because again, it's
a speech not for you guys, necessarily, it's for the
American people. The President said that, and it seemed to
be pretty well received, but I don't know that it
was new information. It was. It was a victory lap.
I think people are calling it a victory lap less
than six weeks into an administration. What do you what

(33:38):
do you think it accomplishes?

Speaker 9 (33:40):
Well, you know it was. It was from a procedural standpoint,
it filled the slot of a traditional state of union
and it served It served several purposes. I think it
showed all of us that the president it's not running
to be a ceremonial president. He was focused in the campaign.
He has certainly been focused ever since January twentieth, and

(34:05):
he went right down the same list of priorities that
he has been championing for the last several months of years.
And the speak was appropriately very much focused domestically. He
lifted off whether it was the wasteful spending that he
and Elon Musk have identified, whether it was securing our border,

(34:26):
highlighting that his policies are working. We're at the lowest
point ever in terms of illegal crossings. He gave great
creance to the no tax on tips. He was highlighting
his desire to change the energy policy. He wants to
get the regulatory policy back in order he wants to
get all the taxes passed soon. He's reminding Congress that

(34:50):
if we don't act, there's going to be a four
and a half trillion dollar tax increase on every American
And if anything, it just reminded every bodies that the
president is focused, he's working, he's trying to deliver for
the country, and at least for me and my congressional seat,
it was almost a reminder I'm doing my part and

(35:12):
you guys in Congress you'd better be doing yours too.

Speaker 1 (35:15):
And that's what I wanted to ask you, like, are
you guys going to be able to because I mean,
let's face and we're talking about continuing resolutions at the
same time we're talking about insane spending stuff like the
list you just referenced is crazy. We've talked about it
here on the show, and it's that sounds like a
disconnect in some people's minds. So, does Congress have a

(35:37):
plan to right size the government under their required powers
the power of the purse? That's you, guys, So explain
to me how you enact with the President's laying out
so that there's not these contradictory things.

Speaker 9 (35:53):
Great question and The short answer is, yes, we do
have a plan. One of the frustrating parts that I've
seen in Congress is I wish we could move faster
across the board. But when you have a Senate, when
you have the House of Representatives, and when the majority
that we have is as small as it is, and
you have very little wiggle room, uh to to to

(36:19):
fluctuate with you when you're in Congress, kind of really
focus on the issues that that we can get into
a bill. I hope the Senate will accept it and
send it to the President. And right now the White
House is seeing we are making good progress with the reconciliation.
We are trying to get everything, and I say everything
into one big bill. That's a tremendous task just from

(36:42):
a topic standpoint. And you know, I don't know what
I'm going to do with the continuing Resolution if one
is proposed. The White House has has already telegraphed that
they think that's the most responsible short term fix while
we negotiate and fix the taxes and the regulations and
the policy, et cetera. But to answer your question, there's

(37:05):
absolutely feverish work trying to get this one big bill
that the President wants through and to his desk before
the summer. And again, when you've got a majority as
slim as the House of Representatives, just to put it
into an image, you have a Republican who's in a
a what's called an R plus thirty the Republican thirty

(37:27):
district and then you've got a New York who's in
a Democrat plus two districts, a New York Republican and
we really don't have any leeway. We have you know,
we can lose one or two votes and that's it.
So when you've got a conference that's as diverse as ours,
with with a majority that's a slim as ours, that
can complicate things. But the President is leading, we are,

(37:48):
we're putting the bill together and uh, we believe that
we'll be able to pass it before the summer.

Speaker 1 (37:53):
What do you think because you've been up there, just
just to be clear, you've been up there for about
five minutes, right because you sworn in, you were sworn
in in January. What a what a Congress to get
sworn into talk to about? I know you have nothing
to compare it against, but you know it's drinking from
a fire hose right now, and this is how you're
learning how to how to be a congressman. So explain

(38:16):
how that works for you and what your day is
like and how you're able to figure out how it
used to be different talking to some of the other members.

Speaker 9 (38:24):
Well, I'll start from and reverse. It used to be
different at the level of vitriol on you know between
parties was not nearly as high as it is currently.
And that's been something that really has been upsetting and
and something that I wish we could we could reverse. Candidly,
I think America got a snapshot of it last night.

(38:45):
There were lots of things that the President said that
traditionally even the Democrats would have stood and applauded for.
There were lots of moments in that speech or even
at the whole evening, for instance, when when his cabinet
was was introduced. Traditionally both parties stand for the recognition
of his cabinet. That did not happen last night. When
the President recognized a young man who had overcome tremendous

(39:09):
sizes with brain cancer and was given a ceremonial badge
to the Secret Service, the Democrats didn't stand up. When
you know a young man by the name of Jason
Hartley was announced to have been accepted at West Point.
His father was slain in law enforcement. He is a
third generation now be a third generation service member for

(39:30):
our army. The Democrats didn't stand up, and I don't
quite know what to make of that, because candidly, this
is probably even more upsetting. When the cameras are off,
the vitriol goes down, and the resentment goes down. It's
almost kind of a perfunctory four show act that the Democrats,

(39:51):
I don't want to be too broad, not all of them,
but the ones that we all know of and the
ones that we saw last night, by and large were
acting in that way. But walking home from the speech,
I saw some Democrats and their countenants were was completely different.

Speaker 10 (40:06):
Uh.

Speaker 9 (40:06):
They were friendly, they were they were they were engaging.
So I'm not sure what to make of that.

Speaker 1 (40:11):
Uh.

Speaker 9 (40:11):
But in terms of me getting getting my sea legs
under us, we we agree with most of what the
President outlined. We believe that the the folks wanted to
change in November. They voted for it. Everything from men's
off of men, men getting out of women's locker rooms,
men getting off of women's teams. To the taxes and

(40:33):
the suspending is just outrageous. It's more outrageous now that
we have the lights on than it was even during
the campaign and we were just talking about it hypothetically.
And we we have built the staff, we are on
good committees, and we're trying to work in unison both
with within our own office, within the committees, and then

(40:55):
with the White House to get these things done. And
it's been fascinating to see it kind of behind the scenes.

Speaker 1 (41:01):
To be sure, Here's here's what I can't wrap my
head around. And let me go back to what you
just said, all of these these crazy spending things right
where they're like, oh, look, we found out that we
spend ten million to shove marbles up cat's rear ends
and then electrocute them, right, which is a thing. That's
that's one of the things. And for the life of me,

(41:22):
I can't understand why there's not a member, a Democrat
member of Congress on recker going, hey, do you think
there's a good way to spend ten million dollars? They
have been they have not been asked to weigh in
on this. Have you had a conversation with one of
your colleagues, where even one of your Democrat colleagues is like, nah,
transgender operas in Colombia is probably not the best use

(41:42):
of our money. Are they honest at least in private?
That that's insane?

Speaker 9 (41:51):
You know, I think gay they have They have made
such a villain out of President Trumps. If you remember,
during his first term, they they they accused him of
essentially working with Putin to uh over return to the
government and accused him of being just a vicious, vicious,

(42:12):
evil person. And he clearly is not. Everything that they
said about him in Russia was a lie, but the
viciousness and the vitriol towards him has only grown. And unfortunately,
if there's anything that the president is doing, I have
not had any any specific interactions where they will will

(42:33):
where they will even give the first card in his favor.
Uh And I think it's because as a party, they
just cannot accept that someone who they think is as
odious as President Trump could do anything that is in
the right direction.

Speaker 1 (42:47):
And you're not sure my faith in humanity here a
good job of it.

Speaker 9 (42:52):
So the most the most I've gotten out of I
say I've gotten the most I've heard in conversation is
they will say something along the lines of, well, we
could always clean up spending, but they're going about it
the wrong way. That's kind of the baseline in private response.
But there's no acknowledgment that how he's going about it

(43:14):
is effective. There's no acknowledgement that it's not just a
little bit with spending that we've got to do. It's
thirty six trillion dollars in total, two trillion dollars a year.
You know, things like spending tens of billions of dollars
giving free health care to illegals, things like that that
most Americans find outrageous. The other party is simply not

(43:37):
in lockstep with the American people, and that is certainly
the case that I've observed in Washington.

Speaker 1 (43:43):
Let me let me ask you. We're chatting with Congressman
Brad not about President's speech last night, but there's two
other things I want to talk about. One the Zelenski meeting. Right, What,
holy holy cow, what a Friday that was. It's after
the show, so then I get the whole weekend to
digest it. Everyone's watching a layout. Where are we at
on that? And by the way, you don't think Putin's

(44:05):
a good guy, right, because that's the narrative. That's the narrative.
Now that obviously, if if you thought Zelenski, I'm of
the camp that I don't understand. I think Chris Murphy,
your senate colleague, uh and and others like Jim this
dude up and he walked in and absolutely suicided himself
in that meeting. I don't I there's no there's no

(44:28):
fathomable reason to take that approach. That being said, the
narrative then is you then have to assume that everybody
loves Putin and the Republicans love Putin up there, So
do you love Putin? Do you think he's a good guy?
Or where are you at on this Zelensky Ukraine? All
of this stuff.

Speaker 9 (44:49):
Again reversed. Putin is a vicious murdering, you know, dictator
in Russia who is an absolute adversary, a threat to
our country. He's a threat to Europe. That can absolutely
be true. But also what President Trump is attempting to
achieve is a durable peace in Ukraine. This war has

(45:12):
been going on for years. There is absolutely no plan
from either side to land a plane, so to speak,
to achieve peace. Putin for all of his flaws, he
did recognize President Trump the first term, there was no
military effort on his end. He annexed Crimea under Barack Obama.

(45:33):
He began this war after the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal under
President Biden. And he has at least come to the
table and has signaled willingness to engage in peace talks.
The part that President Trump has recognized with Ukraine is
that the American public should not be the world's atm

(45:56):
with conflicts, and when we have spent hundreds of billions
of dollars on Ukraine, for what purpose going forward? When
there's no plan to win, there's no plan to land
a planet into durable peace. President Trump has seized this narrative,
and he mentioned.

Speaker 1 (46:14):
It last night.

Speaker 9 (46:15):
He gave creeings to the fact it was a difficult
conversation on Friday. He did not want it to go
that way. However, when President Zolensky cannot even muster the
manners to say thank you in the Oval Office, when
he can't look at the American taxpayer and say how
much he appreciates it, when he wants to challenge President

(46:38):
Trump's ideas in a way that is absolutely ungrateful and disrespectful.
That was not the time to move forward. And President Zelensky,
to his credit, sent the President a letter that the
President read last night, and he is ready to engage.
He is ready to sign the minerals deal. He's ready
to work creatively to have a lasting peace. And just

(47:02):
from a strategic standpoint, the President the President's plan of
economic development and rare earth metals and minerals extracted from Ukraine,
that's a trillion dollar economic pack with Ukraine. There could
be no greater assurance from a security standpoint, been placing

(47:23):
American civilian businesses and engineering companies and extraction companies in Ukraine.
And so the President is trying his best to help
Ukraine out. He's going to develop their economy, he's going
to recoup some money for the taxpayers. He will enrich Ukrainians,
he will win rich Americans. And he's all in on it.
And thankfully the letter that he read to the Congress

(47:44):
last night, it seems like progress is being made from Zelenski.
I will say that, I will say it's worth voting.
It's real quickly. The only applause, the only applause that
the Democrats gave was for Ukraine.

Speaker 1 (48:01):
And I if we're going to go forward with this
and that is in America's interest, and I think people
are there. Congressman brad Not appreciate it, and we will
be right back. Thank you to Congressman brad Not for
joining us. He was there for Trump's speech last night.
Give us a little inside the chamber spy report there.

(48:21):
But yeah, I don't know that we're learning anything new.
I just I don't know if you're the Democrats, how
you deal with everything there. Like usually a guy's got
one or two kind of core issues and you can
really kind of lean into that from an opposition standpoint.
But he threw everything out, everything out, and when you

(48:44):
had points of contention over a thirteen year let me
tell you the story of this. DJ Daniel Okay Kid's thirteen.
He was told six years ago that he had six
months to live, essentially because of the fact that he
has answer. So six years ago he's told he had
six months to live. Obviously, he's beaten the odds. He

(49:10):
hasn't beat everything, but he's doing a lot better than
they told him. And as a result, his thing is
he loves law enforcement. He wants to be a cop
all of these things, and so over the course of
those years, this young man has acquired essentially nine hundred

(49:32):
different honorary police badges or law enforcement badges, not just
police but sheriff's departments. And now last night, the Secret
Service during the State of the Union, let me play
the audio for you.

Speaker 4 (49:48):
Again, and tonight, DJ, We're going to do you the
biggest honor of them all. I am asking our new
Secret Service Director, Sean Kurrn to officially make you an
agent of the United States Secret Service.

Speaker 1 (50:05):
But this was the this was the ease, This was
the layup of everything yesterday, and it was still hardiesting divided.
Those are all GOP members of Congress that you hear clapping.
That was crazy to me and I thought, well, surely

(50:27):
at least the analysts would figure this out, but they
didn't like they even leaned into it. MSNBC Rachel Maddow for.

Speaker 8 (50:36):
The record, And this is disgusting. The President made a
spectacle out of praising a young man who serves thus
far survived pediatric cancer, as if the President had something
to do with that.

Speaker 9 (50:51):
This was in the midst of.

Speaker 8 (50:52):
Him praising dog doge cuts, among other things, have cut
off funding for ongoing research into pediatric.

Speaker 1 (50:59):
Cancer, right and and you kind of expect it because
it's Rachel Maddow, but you don't expect it on that
considering everything else that was out there. And I was
playing this cut right at the top of the hour.
I want to play it again so you hear the
transition this woman takes. All right, So this is one
of the other MSNBC panelists. I want you to I
want you to hear she's so she's in a position

(51:20):
where she has to analyze this. And instead of just
being like, well, no, that was nice. The young man's thirteen,
he's uh, he's he's you know, he's put up this
good fight with cancer and so he got an honorary
Secret Service badge. This is let's move on to something
of substance. But no, this was a great moment. Instead
of just saying that we get this and I'm gonna

(51:43):
I'll play the thing through because it's so insane every
moment after about the twenty second mark.

Speaker 10 (51:49):
I think this was a lesson in finding one thing
that you let yourself feel, and I let myself feel
boy about DJ and I hope he's alive for another
you know, ninety five years, right, And I hope he
lives and the life he wants to live. He wants
to be a cop. He knows what he wants to do,

(52:10):
and maybe when you have childhood cancer that crystallizes for you.
And I hope he has a long life as a
law enforcement officer. But I hope he never has to
defend the United States Capital against Donald Trump supporters. And
if he does, I hope he isn't one of the
six who loses his life to suicide. And I hope
he isn't one who has to testify against the people
who carried out acts of seditious conspiracy and then live

(52:32):
to see Donald Trump pardon those people.

Speaker 1 (52:36):
How does your brain work like that? How do you
go from he's thirteen, he was essentially given a death sentence,
and he's overcome that prognostication by a factor of six
times thus far. And you just hope that if he

(53:00):
does keep beating cancer, he doesn't kill himself. That's the
level of TDS that you were dealing with yesterday.

Speaker 2 (53:11):
Did you see the two Democratic congress women roll their eyes? Yes, Yeah,
it was Debbie Dingle and Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

Speaker 1 (53:20):
I saw Wasserman Schultz, I didn't Debbie Dingle.

Speaker 2 (53:22):
Yeah, they were sitting right by each other, like side
by side.

Speaker 1 (53:25):
Yeah. I just didn't know the other chicks name because
I didn't care. But yeah, it just roll your eyes
at that, which which shows you how powerful a moment
it was, because when they're reacting like that, they realize
that that's probably not good for what's happening for them
right now. It was just remarkable. The whole thing was remarkable.

(53:50):
It was coupled with that video that they all recorded
different versions of, but all said the same thing. From
a pr standpoint, was not a good day, and yesterday
it was a day through the cras you probably could
have made some hay right with all the teriff insanity
that was going on. You got the video of them
ripping Jack Daniels off the shelves that they've already paid for,

(54:11):
by the way, just point that out. They've already bought it,
already imported it, they have it in possession, So you're
not costing Jack Daniels any money, I guess, unless you
want to look forward to reorders. But as far as
those bottles went, like this was your day and you
could run around and you could do them and gloom
and you could throw all this stuff out, and you
could point to the stock market during inter day training

(54:33):
and go, ah, look what's going on. This is crazy vat.
He's destroying the economy in just six weeks. It's a
new record. And some chose to do that. Others chose
to roll their eyes at a thirteen year old cancer
victim and feel like they had some sort of the
moral high ground there. But that's what happens when he's

(54:57):
hitting you with nothing, but you know, left right, left right,
one thing after another will keep you know, switching it up.
Get into all the different things that he ran on,
all the different things that those is doing, all the
little stories that just, you know, raise the hate in
your heart. Man.

Speaker 4 (55:20):
I terminated the ridiculous Green News Dam. I withdrew from
the unfair Paris Climate Accord, which was costing US trillions
of dollars that other countries were not pairing. I withdrew
from the corrupt World Health Organization. And I also withdrew

(55:45):
from the anti American UN Human Rights Council.

Speaker 1 (55:50):
These are this is here's the thing about Trump. He's
done so much that each of these things that he's
undone had to incrementally be done by Democrats and Republicans
in a lot of cases over the years, right to
get to the size of the budget for said department

(56:10):
and the ability to control the spending with you know,
insane decisions that ends up with some of the stuff
that you know Doge was talking about, and so it's
one thing just to have the president undoing them. It's
another thing entirely. And this is why we're asking the
congressman about this. If they're able to get that funding

(56:33):
then reflected in budgets going forward, because there's so much
stuff that Democrats will have to do should they regain
the White House and control of Congress, and you can't
redo it fast enough. If they can get it financially
enshrined in the budget is not being something we're funding anymore.

(56:55):
So I understand why they're so mad. It's an absolute decimation,
and it's because most Republicans, any Republican up to this point,
they didn't have the stones to do it that fast.
And who knows, maybe it blows up in Trump's face
at some point. The public is fickle, But for now,
that's what you're seeing. You're seeing everything that your last

(57:17):
two generations of congressional members have accomplished just getting to rased,
and so I understand the island.

Speaker 4 (57:30):
We ended all of Biden's environmental restrictions that we're making
our country far less safe and totally unaffordable. And importantly,
we ended the last administrations in saying electric vehicle mandate,
saving our auto workers and companies from economic constructures.

Speaker 1 (57:51):
All right, So lots more to get to audio wise
with the Trump's speech last night. But first raced agents
here and he has a new microphone.

Speaker 11 (58:01):
Well, I don't know if I'm excited. I just don't
know if sounds fine.

Speaker 1 (58:06):
Ross, what are you think? Okay? Ross is the ultimate critic.

Speaker 11 (58:08):
Yeah, no, worse, no better? Right, Sometimes you can't even
you can't even tell sometimes.

Speaker 2 (58:13):
In the headphone, in the headphones, that sounds very basy,
but in the speakers and the monitors it sounds great.

Speaker 11 (58:18):
Okay, Yeah, Basie is Yeah, it's funny one of your cronies,
believe it or not. I won't mention any names in
market number one. I'd add the same setup since COVID. Right,
And to make a long story short, out of nowhere,
all of a sudden, they were like some somebody started saying, oh,
it doesn't sound and so I was like, well, let
me just replace the mic and see what happened. So
we'll see no other complaints. But you know you always

(58:41):
got to serve number one, right, What.

Speaker 1 (58:43):
Do you mean, oh, market number one? Yeah, well I
didn't know you are.

Speaker 10 (58:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (58:48):
Yeah, so where you're talking about a little fun about that, But.

Speaker 11 (58:52):
It's all good. It's all good. So hopefully it's working
okay because we've got some weather. They talk about the
showers right now pushing through the Triangle Triad though to
the west. Now, just seeing a severe thunderstorm warning pop
up northwestern Yatkin County. That's for severe weather potentially winds
to sixty miles per hour and maybe some small hell

(59:14):
so you might see a little damage with that storm.
Western Surrey, st Southeastern Wilson, northwestern Yatkin County until eight
So Roaring Gap, near Buck Shoals, those are some of
the areas that may be impact. At Swan Creek, Elkin
another area that may be impact. And that storm's going
north northeast, so you'll be next up near Mount area.
Maybe northwestern Stokes County could get hit to and heavier

(59:35):
rainfall and embedded thunderstorms coming through west to east here
this morning, and occasionally on this line like we're seeing,
we may get an isolated severe storm. There'll be some
heavy rain and maybe even some stronger winds at times,
and most of it should taper off this afternoon, but
there is a wind advisory for non thunderstorm winds that
could gust the forty plus miles per hour, and then
we'll slowly start improving tonight, leaving us with sunshine tomorrow,

(59:58):
a little mid fifties but a little breezy tomorrow, and
then Friday probably the best of the next three as well.
Thirdwood sixty partly sunny sky and the weekend up near
seventy on Saturday and falling back to the fifties on Sunday.
So case see everybody a little rough this morning. I
think the worst of it's before noontime. Then we'll kind
of focus on the non thunderstorm winds that could get
gusty at times, but rain, maybe an occasional severe storm

(01:00:21):
this morning going west to east, and then better weather,
especially for Thursday and Friday.

Speaker 1 (01:00:25):
You gotta be easy for you today. Like half the
radio guys I know are up in DC, for the
Yeah yeah, n radio road stuff for what's going on.

Speaker 11 (01:00:34):
Yeah yeah, nice recognition for Mark and those guys to
us saw for what had happened with Helene and yeah,
a lot a lot of gang up there. So I
don't do that anymore. I used to, but you know,
budget cuts years ago, and oh they used.

Speaker 1 (01:00:48):
Yeah radio that I have to be up.

Speaker 2 (01:00:50):
I have to point out that half of Ray's because
y'all didn't hear this. Half of Ray's forecast was cut
off by the the EAS Weather Service. Okay, so he
was per warning.

Speaker 1 (01:01:02):
Yeah, sorry fer NADOs.

Speaker 11 (01:01:09):
Yeah yeah, geez, I'm talking new mic and everything and
you cut me off.

Speaker 2 (01:01:13):
Thanks guys.

Speaker 1 (01:01:14):
Yeah, I didn't even get to Aaron Rodgers. Maybe going
to the giants. We will do that in the next time. Gosh,
all right, sure we got some thoughts. All right, thank you, sir,
appreciate it. All right, there you go, So Ray and
eaes for you because that's what you get, all right, perfect,
all right, seven forty eight, Hang on, Anthony, we'll get
your call and more audio to come, all right, So
just just a little disconnect real quick and then we'll

(01:01:36):
get back to the Trump audio stuff here because I
thought this was just hilarious. So I saw this on
Twitter yesterday. Motorists in Michigan were freaking out, man, and
uh so they they posted the video and pictures to
social media. They sent complaints, they called police, and eventually

(01:01:59):
a the department. I guess the wildlife department up there.
I don't know if it's Game and Fish or Bureau
of Line Manager, it doesn't matter, state Wildlife officials and
eventually answered. So here's what they saw. You see a
you know, Forard pickup truck. All right, I'll hang on,

(01:02:20):
just seck somebody to send me a weird email. So
it's a Ford pickup truck, you know, pretty standard Ford
F one fifty new model, and sticking out of the
back of it is a giraffe. Kind of It's like
it's a half a giraffe, but you can't tell because
the things all you see is the really long neck

(01:02:41):
in the head of the giraffe and it's on a
blanket and this guy's just driving down the road in it.
So obviously, the logical assumption if you're on an interstate
in Michigan somewhere is that some bubba saw himself a
giraffe on the way to work and murdered the damn
thing and is now openly parading I guess back to
his home or something. This is what people thought, because

(01:03:05):
people are dumb in reality, they and they issue the
statement the guy who was hauling the giraffe as a taxidermist.
The giraffe died of natural causes as a zoo and
then this dude was hired to taxidermy it for a
science in nature museum. It doesn't say which one, but

(01:03:26):
one up in Michigan somewhere, and people saw it and
he was hauling it literally to drop it off because
he got done taxidermy in it. And so it's just
from the shoulders up, as most mounts are for those
who've seen a taxidermy critter, but when it's a giraffe,
it's a pretty striking mount. But the guy didn't kill

(01:03:46):
it's so why why how would you assume that would
have ross? If you saw a giraffe on the way
home today, like on White Street up there in wake Forest,
Do you think you can just murder it, just just
get out and you know, be like, oh, it's my
eight finders keepers, I can go ahead and shoot this thing.

(01:04:08):
Nobody thinks that and then once they told the moonbats
what was up, like, hey, by the way, it's a
taxidermy giraffe which died of natural causes. Then people got
mad for them openly hauling it. So you just can't win,
all right, Anthony, real quick, what's up?

Speaker 3 (01:04:27):
Hey? I watched the thing last night. I was watching
all the pre game, and here there's talking about all
his controversial picks, where they're only controversial because y'all don't
like them. But the thing is I haven't heard enough
of in this first part of his election is that
spending didn't just get there from the Democrats and the Republicans.
I picture them just standing behind Trump, pointing at the

(01:04:51):
Democrats and making faces, you know, like you know, well
your little brother would do when he went to his
Franti's parents.

Speaker 10 (01:04:57):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:04:58):
Last night was fat Tuesday in New Orleans, although with
the very same weather that literally interrupted our weather forecast
with Ray because the as is going bonkers in Ross's
studio this morning. Ross is in every county now that
basically doom and gloom is coming to I'm not sure
what we're up to. It's getting close, though.

Speaker 2 (01:05:20):
Pretty much like nearly all of us are under a
tornado watch.

Speaker 1 (01:05:24):
Yeah, so you know that is that is something you
need to be paying attention to. We'll talk to Ray
coming up here in about forty forty minutes or so,
just kind of reiterate what you need to think about.
And especially for our friends east of the Triad there
for excuse me, west of the Triad going up towards
Elkin or Roaring Gap, maybe some really heavy rain, which

(01:05:48):
is not things that we need in the North Carolina
Mountains right now. So we'll stay on that. We'll stay
on the Trump stuff. But I do have a few
other things. Although did you hear the chief of police
in New Orleans yesterday? I thought this if you've never
been to Marty Grass, if you've ever been to Marty Graus,
I should say, you'll understand why. I thought this was
kind of funny. But she was doing a press conference

(01:06:10):
basically telling people, hey, if you come to the French
Quarter today, because we know you're going to because it's
Fat Tuesday and you got beads and you want to
see boobs and alcohols here, there's a few things that
are going to be different. And this was basically the
threat to try to dissuade people from showing.

Speaker 10 (01:06:30):
Up and guess one of the most important infrastructures is
your porta potties.

Speaker 1 (01:06:36):
So pete before you come to the prey, right, So
when you have bad weather, you have potential heavy rains
and winds. They decided not to put the porter potties.
Let me tell you, because I've been to Marty Gras,
people ain't using them. I mean, sure they're using them,
but they're mostly using the street. In fact, it's incredibly

(01:06:59):
common and it's such a problem that they it's one
of the big things that they actually arrest people.

Speaker 2 (01:07:05):
Yeah, no, they really look out for that.

Speaker 1 (01:07:07):
And if you go in on a fat Tuesday, you're
not getting adjudicated today. So if you got arrested for
doing that yesterday, you're sitting there for a few days.

Speaker 2 (01:07:17):
Well, I'm pretty sure if you have enough beads they'll
let you go.

Speaker 1 (01:07:20):
It's not true. It is not true. No, And it's
hard man trying to find a bathroom. Sometimes you gotta like,
you gotta be strategic about it. So yeah, but I
don't think that I saw some photos it didn't look
like you dissuaded any What if.

Speaker 2 (01:07:34):
You fall off the float into an alley and then
pe yourself.

Speaker 1 (01:07:38):
Well, you know they're not running the floats right through
the French Quarter, right, they have them overrun like canal
just on the adjacent to Like when you're in the
French Quarter, it's it's just other drunks that you're running over.
So and then there's always at least one dude who's
U Jesus carrying a giant cross up and down Bourbon
Street literally all day every day? The one the other

(01:07:58):
thing I noticed, but yeah, to who it gets? Uh,
the smell is awful, quite awful, and that's just because
porta potties weren't really in most people's plan, uh, regardless
of what was going on. All right, Uh, let's see
a couple other things here. Now I'm gonna get back

(01:08:21):
to the Trump thing here in just a moment.

Speaker 2 (01:08:24):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:08:24):
Well look at this. Who could have seen this coming? Uh?
Boo Boovaya saar Bova. I don't even know how to
pronounce this name. B E b u v A I
s A r bvsar Satiev. Al Right, he's a Russian dude. Well,
he was a Russian dude. H. Three times Russian Olympic

(01:08:45):
Freestyling wrestling champion. Uh, pretty high profile there. They love
him some wrestling over in Russia, and uh, he was
able to parlay his athletic success into getting himself a
seat in the Russian parliament, specifically the United Russia Party,
which is Vladimir Putin's party. So that's yeah, that's a

(01:09:06):
pretty good team to be on. He had a whoopsie though.
Apparently he fell out of a window. Now, if there's
one thing that pro athletes are known for Ross backed
me up on this, it's their lack of balance, right, notoriously,

(01:09:26):
notoriously lack of balance for literally world class athletes. So
apparently he got too close to a third floor window
and just you know, fell out, So Meteor describing it
as premature and tragic. Apparently he'd had a little falling
out with Putin. I'm sure that's just coincidental, had nothing

(01:09:48):
to do with it. So but yeah, I add that
to the big list of oil tycoons, businessmen, various executives, oligarchs,
party leaders, military individuals. One of the COVID doctor ladies.
Didn't she fall out of a window? All with very
unfortunate window accidents, So where did it happen? It didn't

(01:10:13):
happen in Russia though, well, anyway, he fell out of
a window, So just to add that to the list.
All right, let me get back to the Trump stuff here.
Always curious when we see something like that too, you know,
see if the mystery will ever be solved. So again,
what you had yesterday is you had a nearly two

(01:10:34):
hour speech and you had Trump literally spend like two
three minutes on one issue going to the next one,
and he went through like fifty of these and so
trying to respond to that and figured out what you're
going to do from an opposition standpoint, like they didn't
have a plan for it other than some noisemakers, some
interruptions which got Al Green, the congressman from Texas, literally

(01:10:57):
removed from the chamber. And then he just had those
awkward moments where it's like he can't even applaud a
thirteen year old kid who's beaten cancer, who was given
six months to live and is now six years into
this And it was an absolute p R debacle, whereas
Trump just sat up there and just kept talking about

(01:11:18):
all the same stuff he's been talking about.

Speaker 4 (01:11:20):
I renamed the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America,
and likewise I renamed for a great president. William McKinley,

(01:11:40):
Mount McKinley again, could you get it?

Speaker 1 (01:11:46):
Was the thing, this holy thing. Yeah, well over the
whole ap thing that just irritated me the most. Where
aps like, we're not going to call it the Gulf
of America. And it was pointed out that when Barack
Obama unilaterally renamed McKinley Denali, they immediately snapped it into
their style guide. So and of course he was going

(01:12:06):
to make a point of it. One of the things
I did see some of the Democrat pundits say that
they was going to be kind of their core issue
was Trump's attack on DEI and transgender issues, right, which
they said was going to be a hallmark of this,
and it looked it definitely was something they talked about, right. Remember,

(01:12:27):
one of the special guests was a young woman from
North Carolina who suffered a traumatic brain injury when she
had a volleyball spiked into her head by a biological
male she was competing against. And so now you got
to figure out how you're going to go, and you're
going to attack literally a high school girl.

Speaker 4 (01:12:47):
Man, We've entered the tyranny of so called diversity equity
and inclusion policies all across the entire federal government and
indeed the private sector at our military.

Speaker 5 (01:13:04):
And our country will be worked no longer.

Speaker 1 (01:13:11):
Again, it's just one thick hit after hit after hit.
It's like a time Life album. There's one after another
after another. And yes, he did get into it.

Speaker 4 (01:13:22):
Three years ago, Peyton McNabb was an all star high
school athlete, one of the best, preparing for a future
in college sports. But when her girl's volleyball match was
invaded by a male, he smashed the ball so hard
in Peyton's face, causing traumatic brain injury, partially paralyzing her

(01:13:44):
right side and ending her athletic career. It was a
shot like she's never seen before. She's never seen anything
like it. Peyton is here tonight in the gallery and Peyton.
From now on, schools will kick the men off the
girls team, or they will lose all federal funding.

Speaker 1 (01:14:06):
And I saw yesday, you know, Wake County had a
school board meeting and they were talking about this stuff
like they have a choice, and I guess maybe they do.
They just don't get any federal funds. I don't know
how that works out for you. But again, this is
why the speech was polling because on that issue, even
though all the Democrats senators expressly rejected even having a

(01:14:27):
cloture vote to take a vote on this issue, the
fact is that it pulls in the sixtieth percentile, and
it pulls positively with Democrats because it has been identified
as a bridge too far. And so sitting there and
rolling your eyes and figuring out how you're going to
demonize a kid with cancer or a girl with a

(01:14:48):
traumatic brain injury, and you think that that's going to
be a successful play yesterday just just baffling to me.
You're better off screaming about the eggs.

Speaker 4 (01:15:00):
Although he did talk, as you know, we inherited from
the last administration an economic catastrophe and an inflation nightmare.
Their policies drove up energy prices, pushed up grocery costs,
and drove the necessities of life out of reach for
millions and millions of Americans had.

Speaker 1 (01:15:22):
Never had anything like it.

Speaker 4 (01:15:24):
We suffered the worst inflation in forty eight years. But
perhaps even in the history of our country, they're not sure.
As President, I'm fighting every day to reverse this damage
and make America affordable again.

Speaker 6 (01:15:53):
Joe Biden, especially let the price of eggs get out
of control, the egg.

Speaker 2 (01:16:00):
Control.

Speaker 1 (01:16:01):
Dude. He's such a troll, man, he's such a troll.
I'm here for it, don't get me wrong, but he's
such a troll. And I don't know if he saw.
He's literally looking right over at the Democrats when he
said that, because that's their thing. They're running around the
egg prices thing. Oh it's been that way for what

(01:16:22):
you know, two weeks after he took the oath of office.
And that was part of that stupid video that they
filmed yesterday where twenty five different senators sat down and
said the same thing, showing no unique thought or individualism,
just a script in the same seated position, with the
same little fluffy mic in front of him, so much

(01:16:44):
so that you can just put him side by side
that they released prior to the speed.

Speaker 4 (01:16:48):
I will immediately bring prices down starting on Watch's heart.

Speaker 1 (01:16:59):
Is getting worse. It's just so eerie and creepy, the
whole lot of it.

Speaker 2 (01:17:06):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:17:07):
And yet that's what we saw yesterday. All right, a
couple other things. We'll get some more audio here in
just a moment. I never thought I would have to
report this, but we're in this timeline, So let's do this.
There's a report out that the guy who killed the

(01:17:28):
healthcare ceo Luigi, And again I don't even know, I
don't even know where the whether this this level of
validity is appropriate to end up being in reports, but
I'll at least put it out there. I hope it's
not true because it's just so weird. So there's a

(01:17:49):
report out that that Luigi dude may have filmed twenty
porn movies before he died, obviously, or not before he died,
before he was arrested, before before the murder. I should say,
I have a quiet wasn't the whole thing? This dude's
back was so jacked up that he couldn't do stuff,

(01:18:11):
even though we found out it wasn't necessarily that particular
healthcare system. How how do you how do you know
any of those videos?

Speaker 2 (01:18:19):
It was specifically he was upset that he couldn't be
sexually active. So were the police made before the back injury?

Speaker 1 (01:18:25):
I don't know. I don't know what is going on.
I I hate when things I predicted are coming true.
Or I just said, like everyone's saying every like a
component for all the news stories and politics is going
to be somebody's nudes, but like we're quickly getting there.
And what's even creepier is you have all these women
online like, oh, what's the link? You go look at that?

(01:18:49):
So which I guess I'm a little less creeped out
because like people looked at those Casey Anthony photos when
they came out, and if you guys knew there were
Casey Anthony photo, don't don't, No, the time has passed
that would be inappropriate. But like we're just we're just
so weird, man. But yeah, this like belies the whole

(01:19:10):
thing because Ross is right, Like one of his main
beefs was not only do I have a back injury,
but they've been so unsuccessful in treating it, Like I
can't even carouse anymore.

Speaker 2 (01:19:22):
It's like, oh my back hurts, can't make porn, gunna
murder ceo. Yeah, it's I guess that's the pathway here.

Speaker 1 (01:19:29):
So I don't know, I'll let this, I'll let this
story shake out a little more before I necessarily believe
it all the way. But holy hell, all right, coming
up on the show The Worst Parents Ever, I don't know.
I mean, we've had some pretty bad ones. We've had
parents who've tried to sell their kids for six packs
of beer and math and stuff like that, or ten dollars.

(01:19:52):
That happened locally. But now these are Disney adults, Man,
these are Disney. This story to Rob Whiteside by the way,
yes say, I'm like, what is wrong with your people?
And He's just like, man, you got to you gotta
do what you gotta do.

Speaker 2 (01:20:09):
So I would love to hear I would love to
hear Rob's perspective on that, because he's he he's like
our corporate computer dude. And yeah, he's like one of
the biggest Disney adults I know, Like he's at Disney
like every other weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:20:21):
I'll tell you what he said because I sent him
the email and he sent sent something back. It was
kind of dismissive here, But then I started thinking about
what these parents are accused of doing, and I realized
maybe they just didn't want to get the stroller stolen. Right,
You just leave the stroller there and maybe somebody steals it.
I mean, I know it's Disney, but that's got to
be a concern there.

Speaker 2 (01:20:40):
So have you ever seen the Disney stroller parking lot,
like where you put your strollers. It's insane.

Speaker 1 (01:20:45):
No, no, no, no, I literally was going to tap
your brain on this because I know nothing about it.
I just know that this probably isn't a good idea.
So we'll tell you what the parents were up to,
and we'll get through more of the Trump's speech from
last night. We've got lots more audio to get to,
So busy back half of this hour coming up phone
number eight eight eight nine three four seven eight seven

(01:21:07):
four back in just a few minutes. These are always fine,
right twenty twelve y two? K any of the other
hundreds that I'm missing out on? T remember when was
the last time we had one of these where we're
kind of holding our breath to see if it all ended.
It's been a while, hasn't It been probably a few years.
So I guess there's some really old book that the

(01:21:30):
Vatican has, because that's how these things start. The Prophecy
of the Popes, a twelfth century book contains a series
of Latin phrases believed to describe, Oh, this is the
one where the next pope's the last pope. That's what
this is, all right? So do we have do we
have an actual end date?

Speaker 2 (01:21:55):
Ross?

Speaker 1 (01:21:56):
When do you want the meteor to come, do you
have asap? You want a few years? Get things lined out?

Speaker 2 (01:22:03):
I would probably prefer a few years. I want the
bills to win first.

Speaker 1 (01:22:06):
Oh that's fair, that's fair. Okay, Well, according to this,
it'll be in twenty twenty seven, so that's enough time
for you guys to win, right, that's enough time for
you guys to win and us to win.

Speaker 2 (01:22:17):
Yes, that's more than fair.

Speaker 1 (01:22:19):
Yeah, I think if we accomplish those two things were good, right.

Speaker 2 (01:22:22):
I mean, what's there what's left to live for after that?

Speaker 1 (01:22:25):
Yeah? Oh, got those for us.

Speaker 2 (01:22:27):
I know there's a big one coming, like a prophecy
in twenty thirty two where there's supposed to be some
sort of alien invasion or something.

Speaker 1 (01:22:34):
Well, if the first but the thing happens is twenty
twenty seven, then it will negate the.

Speaker 2 (01:22:38):
Three right, so one of them isn't true.

Speaker 1 (01:22:40):
That is so weird.

Speaker 2 (01:22:41):
There was a predicted alien invasion a few months back
as well.

Speaker 1 (01:22:45):
Oh did I remember?

Speaker 5 (01:22:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:22:46):
If I was asking, I didn't realize I missed one.
So all right, So some people are putting pushing back,
saying that it's probably not going to end then, so
maybe uh, Ross's one is true. I don't know, all right,
check this out bringing Disney adults men. So, so in
in Los Angeles, this is Disneyland technically where this happened.

(01:23:12):
Some parkovers became a little concerned after they noticed a
stroller that was it was kind of tucked into this
I don't want to say the shade, but away from stuff,
kind of pinned between a building and a column, and
then it had a blanket over the top of it. Well,
they started seeing the blanket move, and so they go
over and they're like, and there's a baby in there.

(01:23:34):
Holy the cow, there's a baby where the parents And
it was then that I guess the folks there who
started filming realized that the parents had literally positioned the
stroller there, covered the baby, and then went into a ride,
just leaving the baby there, which I don't I don't

(01:23:55):
know if that's protocol up at Disney. I'm not sure
how that works. I would assume strollers are a problem.

Speaker 2 (01:24:02):
I don't say problem, but so so when you go there,
every section of the park League, every different land has
its own sort of like parking lot for strollers. So
if you go to Tomorrowland, you'll see like a portion
of tomorrow Land is set aside and it's just like
a big parking park of strollers. And the first time
we went there, I remember we went to the strolling

(01:24:23):
parking lot whatever you call it. Near It's a small world.
There's one there and I told Mark them, so what
do we just we just leave our stroller. Here's like
a two hundred dollars stroller.

Speaker 3 (01:24:33):
Whatever.

Speaker 2 (01:24:34):
There's there's no ticketing system, there's no way to market,
there's no pass, there's no you know, they don't give
you some sort of thing you scan or anything. You
just leave it there and you walk away and you
come back and get it later. And sometimes it's really
hard to find your stroller because like I said, there's dude,
there's like hundreds of strollers and.

Speaker 1 (01:24:54):
People are moving them around. I'm sure when they're putting
new ones. They do have not like it's not like
a coach check for strollers. You're kind of on your own.

Speaker 2 (01:25:01):
Yeah, they do have an attendant, if I'm remembering correctly,
who will was kind of like, you know, make space
for them or organize them. But there's no like it's
just you drop it off and you pick it up.
There's nothing well, unless your stroller gets stolen.

Speaker 9 (01:25:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:25:14):
I was thinking about that though, because like, these are
expensive strollers. But then someone would have to pay for parking,
and then they'd have to go in the monorail or
the if it's Disney World, right, the ferry, and then
you'd have to wait in the line to get in
and get padded down, and then you'd have to walk
to that part of the park. You'd have to find
a stroller you want, then you'd have to lug it
all the way back. So and to get in the
park is like super expensive. It probably wouldn't be cost

(01:25:35):
effective or efficient to steal a stroller and try to
make money that way.

Speaker 1 (01:25:39):
But if you want to keep people stealing it, leave
a baby in right, because people are like, ah, like
I can't. I was going to steal your car, but
I see your toddlers, uh buckled in the back. Now,
I'm not going to do that. That's too it would
seem a natural deterrent.

Speaker 2 (01:25:53):
That's just completely crazy when it comes to the parents,
because the parents are like, oh, we want to go
on Space Mountain or whatever.

Speaker 1 (01:25:58):
No, no, no, the ride was and half the time
we don't get to know this. So the ride was
the Guardians of the Galaxy ride. Okay, that's one of
the big ones.

Speaker 2 (01:26:06):
Yeah, it's a new one.

Speaker 1 (01:26:07):
Yeah, but you gotta be one hundred and two centimeters
to ride it. So obviously a baby in a stroller
camp and.

Speaker 2 (01:26:12):
They're like, oh, we're at Disneyland and it's super safe
because it's you know, for kids and stuff. So we'll
leave the baby in the stroller. But have you seen
the news when it comes to people busted for being
pedophiles that work at Disney.

Speaker 1 (01:26:25):
Every time the sheriff of the county there in Orlando
does one of those big usually you know, they do
one of those big petos sweep.

Speaker 2 (01:26:32):
Yeah, yeah, we arrested thirty today.

Speaker 1 (01:26:34):
Always a Disney employee in there, always. So is there
a ride that's good enough to abandon your baby to
get on?

Speaker 3 (01:26:43):
Though?

Speaker 2 (01:26:44):
People Mover?

Speaker 1 (01:26:48):
Is there really a ride that's good You can bring
a baby on the people Mover? I mean you can, yes,
Oh okay, all right, but maybe you don't want it.
Maybe you want a nice, quiet people mover experience. You know,
I'm not doing roller coasts or so I'll do the
people Mover all day. Just sit down.

Speaker 2 (01:27:03):
Yeahm right there.

Speaker 1 (01:27:05):
Uh, all right. Yeah, so then people started tweeting about
seeing the parents go in there and all of that.
Let me and hold on, I look this up. Guardians
of the Galaxy has one hundred and two centimeter height requirement. However,
they do offer the quote, what is the writer switch option?
What is the writer switch option?

Speaker 4 (01:27:24):
Is that?

Speaker 1 (01:27:24):
Is that a thing? You know what that is? It
just says for guests with children too small? So basically
they get a half asked version of the ride. Well
that's just rob I don't know what that is. Yeah,
so you get a kind of ride just because you
have a baby. That's not fair. Nah, get your kid
over there with the blanket over it? Which does it
at all trap heat during a nice sunny day? You

(01:27:46):
absolute lunatics? So yeah, yeah, it's probably probably not all right?
Let me uh oh look at this all right? Is
Racetagic ready to go? I got some serious weather coming in.
I'm just looking at this. Would you check and see
if he's already there? All right, because now we got

(01:28:06):
to forsyfe and some other stuff. All right, we're going
to talk to Ray here in just a moment. Sorry
to flip the gear, serious there, he just sent Ray
never sends me emails, so all right, well let me
in my year, let me know when he's there. Disney
has not publicly addressed the video, and it's unclear actually
what happened. I you know, I'm assuming the parents came back, right,

(01:28:29):
and now you've got all the people standing around videoing
this thing that are just waiting to scold the parents.
So actually, surprise, there's not video of a bunch of
angry do gooders at Disney screaming at the parents. By
the way, I'm not defending the parents. That's absolute lunacy
to just abandon your kid there because you really want
to go on the ride. But either way, man, oh

(01:28:52):
and here we go. Yeah, so children in the age
of seven must become blah blah blah. Al right, so
I'll never go on this ride, so I don't need
to know. All right, raced things are getting little crazy man,
so yeah, uh, sanity for sight care stuff now, so
let's get into it.

Speaker 9 (01:29:07):
What do we got.

Speaker 11 (01:29:09):
It's not that it's great news, but at least the
tornado warning for Forsyth County has now been changed over
to a severe thunderstorm warning, so either way, dangerous storms
continued to come through and now into Rockingham County. Uh,
they've extended a severe thunderstorm warning and now they've even
just extended it into Guildford County too, so they're try

(01:29:30):
it getting hit pretty hard right now with severe weather.
If you are in any of those areas in and
around let's say, uh, High Point, Winston Salem down to Thomasville,
and even areas further south of that. That's where the
line is right now, pushing into Randolph County and continuing
to head on off toward the east Alamantier next eventually

(01:29:50):
Chathaman across across Triangle here over the next hour too,
so be prepared. There is a tornado watch now, so
on this line casey, we may see some of these
storms spin up and not only go potentially severe with
winds to sixty, but there may be some isolated tornado
warnings as we've seen already this morning. Just another tornado
warning is pop now. That's Reunion County down south southwest

(01:30:13):
into Piedmont. So that storm also near Lake Park, moving
pretty quickly at about fifty five miles per hour, so
be ready. Over the next couple of hours, already in
the triad heading eastward the triangle, some dangerous weather on
the way. There's also wind advisory maam, some gusty winds
even outside of storms, potentially to forty plus miles an hour.
The good news, though, I think the storm threat ends

(01:30:35):
around lunchtime earlier to the west, a little bit later
to the east of the triangle, and then sudd'll be
back with lit mid fifties tomorrow, near sixty Friday, and
then over the weekend we're near in seventy degrees Saturday,
and then cool off a little bit Sunday. So some
dangerous weather here. Multiple warnings actually lining up from southwest
Virginia right on down towards South Carolina near the Triad.

(01:30:58):
Most of them are through and down near Charlotte. Most
of these are severe thunderstorm warnings, but occasionally, like we're seeing,
we do have some isolated tornado warnings too, So you
need to take action as these storms pushed out off
toward the east.

Speaker 1 (01:31:12):
Okay, all right, well there we go. So basically if
you can hear the sound of our voice was probably
going on for you. All right, all right, thank you,
chat with you tomorrow, appreciate it. There you go round
to Pagic and we'll come back with Jeff Bellinger, Bloomberg
News Next.

Speaker 2 (01:31:27):
Well Morning, Casey.

Speaker 12 (01:31:28):
Wall Street is coming off its worst two day slump
since December. The futures have given up most of their
earlier gains. Right now, the S and P futures are
up three points, Nasdaq futures are up forty four, the
Dow futures are down fourteen. Private employers slowed the pace
of hiring last month. According to ADP, companies added just

(01:31:49):
seventy seven thousand workers to pay rolls in February. That
fell far short of Wall Street expectations. Investors and economists
thought we'd be hearing that about one hundred forty thousand
jobs were created. A lot of would be home buyers
and current homeowners came off the sidelines when mortgage interest
rates used last week. Mortgage bankers report total application volume

(01:32:12):
increase more than twenty percent for the week as the
average interest rate and a thirty year fixed strate home
loan ticked down to six point seventy three percent. Pay
television providers keep waiting for cord cutting to bottom out,
but that has not happened yet. Bloomberg Intelligence projects more
than five million subscribers will cut the cord this year.
Eroding the total number by another eight percent. The industry

(01:32:36):
has lost nearly thirty five million users since twenty fifteen.
Whalt Disney is cutting jobs at ABC and its other
entertainment television networks, and internal memo indicates about two hundred employees,
most of them based here in New York, will be
getting the bad news today. Apples, hoping to keep demand
for its tablets growing, the company introduced new souped up

(01:32:58):
models of its iPad air device. They're powered by faster chips,
and there are eleven inch and thirteen inch versions. Retro
sneakers are in demand. They've given Adidas a nice boost.
The German sportswear brand has boosted its profit outlook for
the year and said it will expand its line of
the hot selling footwear. In casey have to mention here

(01:33:18):
that we're reporting today from the Fidelity Bloomberg Business Desk.
I hope you like the surroundings here.

Speaker 1 (01:33:24):
In fact, is it new? Is it different? Are you
in some other place or.

Speaker 12 (01:33:30):
A virtual a virtual difference place?

Speaker 1 (01:33:34):
All right, all right, thank you very much. Do appreciate it. Jeff, okay,
you too, take care there you go. Oh science, all right,
I ad a couple of science stories here, I'm I
don't know, I don't know if I'm buying this. So,
but this dude is This is Jeremiah Colson's professor at

(01:33:55):
to Oxford and in fact is considered one of the
leading publishers of peer reviewed articles for having to do
with extraterrestrials. He is a theoretical biologist on top of things.
So he's speculating what aliens may look like based on
you know, science that's out there, So take it for

(01:34:15):
what it's worth. Ross I was reading this. Do you
know what he believes is the most likely body type
of intelligent life in the universe that could potentially come
visit us. And by the way, he doesn't think it's
gonna go well, but do you know what they He
thinks they most likely look like I.

Speaker 2 (01:34:35):
Like to think that they're like human form, like we
wouldn't even know.

Speaker 1 (01:34:39):
Okay, you got a little human form, the grays. Those
are pretty popular, right, that style that's its own thing. Yeah,
some of the lizard people, but no, none of those things.
According to Professor Coulson, he says the most likely the
most likely scenario is they look like Jaba, the hut
I don't like that.

Speaker 2 (01:35:00):
See, I'm not afraid of that.

Speaker 1 (01:35:02):
You're not afraid that dude just put everyone in carbon,
know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:35:06):
It's amazing he coming with like all of his followers
or is it just like Jaba, because if it's him,
he's like fat, lazy and get away from that dude.
I can run run away from him.

Speaker 1 (01:35:15):
Apparently not. How does everyone get dumped into that giant thing.

Speaker 2 (01:35:20):
Because of his followers. He sits there and just he's
fed whatever it is, he eats it.

Speaker 1 (01:35:27):
So you you you you're gonna you can't body shame
him body positivity.

Speaker 2 (01:35:33):
Man, No, that's the thing of the past. Calling fat
people fat is back.

Speaker 1 (01:35:36):
But no, no, no, they're gonna give put him in
a Dove commercial.

Speaker 2 (01:35:39):
Even Lizzo is like, no, I was fat. Oh okay,
so we're not. We're done with that.

Speaker 1 (01:35:44):
Although here's where it gets more terrifying. Uh when when
he goes deeper he called he said that they are
likely to be bloated, slow moving blobs. However, however, uh,
don't sleep on him because he also theorizes that they
use mechanical apparatus them.

Speaker 2 (01:36:04):
So it's Mecca, that's mech job of the Hut that's different.
So they're bringing like tech with them.

Speaker 1 (01:36:09):
Yeah, well obviously if they're coming here, they would need tech, right,
you'd have tech to get here.

Speaker 2 (01:36:14):
Yeah, so are you are you.

Speaker 1 (01:36:16):
Concerned about mecha job of the Hut that might be different?

Speaker 2 (01:36:21):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (01:36:21):
Yeah, okay, I think everyone's going in the carbonac there.
So what a weird what a weird thing to be
as leading theory. I'm not even following really as logic
on some of this, uh said. The professor says, Well,
most people would envision a sexy seven foot blue Amazonian.
Well not necessarily. I think you just watched Avatar too
many times, Sarah.

Speaker 2 (01:36:40):
I'm not really on that, but I didn't have Job
of the Hut on a Bengo cra It's so weird
to think that they'd be like giant blobs like floating
in space, or like just morbidly obese aliens, like is
it like Wally where they were?

Speaker 1 (01:36:52):
What he's talking about is basically, if there's a society
that lives in space just because of what we know
that space does to like human bones, right.

Speaker 2 (01:37:00):
I was gonna say, or it's sort of like I
don't know if you ever saw that because you know
you don't have kids, but like the Disney movie Wally,
where yeah, there is space so long they sort of
like become really super fat and hanging out in their
space chairs all day.

Speaker 1 (01:37:11):
Yeah. So really, Americans are just at the forefront of
future space travel right over at the Old Country Buffet.
The ones I see over there, like those are just
astronauts waiting to happen. They're ready to go. Yeah, this
dude's all in on the They're all fat blobs there,
so oh man, that's gonna suck like cub popping out

(01:37:34):
of there, especially with the mechanical side of it and
real quickly. Scientists have genetically engineered mice with wooly mammoths,
but they did it the wrong way. I wanted a
mouse the size of a wooly mammoth, but instead they
just they like geo splice the hair. So now you
have these mice that have wooly mammoth hair and look

(01:37:55):
metal
