Speaker 1 (00:01):
You ready to kick Monday in the ass, like figuratively
or literally, because I I mean, these are new shoes.
I didn't want to touch on anything gross. I think
I met literally figuratively. Oh cool, yeah, yeah, so that
should work. Did your mushrooms just kick in? Dude? Isn't
it awesome? Bro?

Speaker 2 (00:20):
It's a good week. It's Monday, and everything's gonna be okay.
It can only go up from here. Let's put it
careful now. Things they're mostly I mean, obviously, things are
not perfect right now in America. Maybe you've heard there
are three or four major wars going on.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
There are, but not in America. Well the yeah, well yeah, yeah,
I mean a culture war. They're over there, a war
on your mind, man, the kind of war America likes. Yeah,
we go over visit the war for a while, and
then we come home. Proxy war.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
There's a war on geriatric liberal baby boomers who were
going to try to retire this season.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
They're pretty mad.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
I can't figure out if all the people protesting are
baby boomers because they were going to retire, or if those.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
Are just the only people that have any time to protest.
This may explain it. The headline says, pay roll driven theater.
Most of these anti pro Trump and anti Musk protesters
staged and paid. They're busted in scripted and then as
we saw last week, they clock out when they're hour
three hours or whatever they got paid for is out.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
Yeah, if you live in the Dallas Fort Worth area,
there's a Tesla dealership in the South Lake neighborhood. It's
a town near Fort Worth, near Keller. I think, and
right at noon, all the protesters last weekend stopped protesting
right at the same why click click, click, and then tick,
and then they get to noon, right as the clock

(01:48):
hits noon.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
The kids leaving school, and when the bill goes off,
don't you guys want to stay and do a few
more minutes of resistance? Nah?

Speaker 2 (01:56):
No, I really need to get home for the final
four or whatever. Yeah, there's a tournament I needed to catch.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
The final four is tonight, The Final two is tonight,
the final four Saturday. And there was a line of
Herd on Sports the other the odds makers were talking
about the four. You know, teams left and Saturday afternoon,
they were like, whatever you do, don't sleep on Houston.
But Duke decided to sleep on Houston with a big

(02:24):
lead with two minutes to go. Duke's like, Eh, we'll
just throw the ball around a little bit, we'll be fine.
And then they weren't. They were not fine because the
Cougars came from behind and ended up winning, and now
they're in the final, the championship game tonight. Well that'll
be some to look at there on a Monday night.
A little bit of basketball. Can ball also be cheered

(02:44):
up by the fact that it is currently forty five
degrees in April in Houston, and it's pretty chilly all
over the Walton and Johnson listening area.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah, I was trying to explain to some of my
friends yesterday that we're complaining that it was windy. It's like,
you guys, not really sure. You guys, realize what's coming
in the months ahead. This brisk spring day is going
to be something you'll miss a lot in about a month.
So just enjoy it. Put a windbreaker on. It's sunny,
it's cool, and how is it the Houston Symphony yesterday?

Speaker 1 (03:20):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
I know I felt very aristocratic, I felt very cultured,
and it occurred to me sometimes sometimes you forget it's
like this whole other section of society that doesn't.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
Feel the way that we do.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
It was a Houston symphony they were doing, what is it,
a dedication to women at Broadway, and that was a lot,
but they had to remind you in the middle of
the concert, we don't like Trump, even though it had
nothing to do, Even though I had nothing to do
with the show or the song, the music or anything.
They just wanted you to know these tonight we remember

(03:54):
the women of Broadway.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
And also Trump is bad. Yeah, well, you know, because
Trump's gonna take all away of women's rights. You know,
Republicans do that. Some lady posted over the weekend. It's
been I forget the note has been however many sixty
eight days or however many days it's been, And as
a woman, I still haven't noticed which rights I've lost.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
I think of all the moments when the hyperbole of
the left in their anti Trump ferber was proven to
be untrue fervor excuse me, which proven to be untrue,
I think the most interesting, if you really look back
on it, was when they said Trump's gonna round up
all the gays. And when you asked them why, they said,
because of Mike Pence.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
It's like because a Mike Pence.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
Do you think Mike Pence is the boss of is
he calling the shots? And now in retrospect, looking at
what happened to Mike Pence and what his role was
in the administration, that's hilarious. I mean, you guys thought,
what Steve what was his name? And uh uh speed Racer?

Speaker 1 (04:53):
What was the kid's name? I don't know.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
You remember the guy that used to hang out with
speed Racer.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
It's killing me. John used to prefer to it was
racer X, but that was the bad guy speed Racer.
Now it's killing me. Johnny used to always refer to
Mike Pence as the the older guy from speed Racer.
This isn't Ring talking about Johnny Quist. It is Johnny quest.

(05:21):
See it's hard to answer the question when the question
is not the right question. In my defense, all that
was way before I was alive. Speed Racer was a
race car driver, okay, Johnny Quist was out on quests.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
So wait a second speed Racer didn't go one quest
race race Bannon. See, you could see why I'd be confused.
It's got the word racing race. Yeah, I give you that.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
Thank thank you. On the air. In three suits work
on Monday, Monday, Yes, Monday, Walton and Johnson Radio Network.
That kind of seemed like these guys weren't even trying
when they named their band. What do you guys want
to call the band? Buffaloes? Buffalo? Can't just call it Buffalo?

(06:04):
No Buffalo?

Speaker 2 (06:05):
Springfield Springfield, what the hell does that mean? It's like
a town that's in every state. Where's Springfield, every Springfields?
Then there's main streets.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
Everybody's got a Springfield Springfield, Maine, Sure yeah, Springfield, Idaho
probably anyway. Anyway, greetings kids, you're awake.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
People are still convinced Trump tried to have someone shoot
him so he could win the election.

Speaker 1 (06:34):
Oh yeah, they'll go to whatever lengths possible to make
it look bad. But I guess half of the American
people seem to be so gullible that they're still buying
all this stuff. They'll just keep selling this stuff.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
I woke up this morning to my ex account notifications.
I read them every morning to see what listeners are
talking about and how people reacted to news stories I
posted over the week, and I couldn't help but notice
there where it was a long thread a conversation.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
Is what that means?

Speaker 2 (07:05):
Where people were arguing over whether or not Donald Trump
faked his own assassination and this and that's silly and
stupid in and of itself. But then when I looked,
I noticed people had spent hours trying to convince each
other that they did or didn't that. Let's pretend he did.
Pretend he did for me. Yeah, imagine Donald Trump calling

(07:28):
someone on the phone. Hey, I've got an idea. Have
a guy shoot me in the ear from where? From
the rooftop of a building nearby, a little fairly, you know,
somewhat windy day.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
Who's gonna do it? Some kid? Yeah? Yeah, guy says
he's practicing, so it should be fine. Does that sound
like something to hear you?

Speaker 3 (07:48):
What?

Speaker 1 (07:48):
I wanted to get as close to my skill as possible. Okay,
get the world's greatest sniper. Everyone's talking about him. He's
so good. How good is he? He's twenty one? How
old was that kid? Nineteen? I don't know. And the
roof turns out was slanted, Yeah, it was. It was
a you know, on an angle, which made it almost
impossible for anybody to walk on. Sure, there's this guy

(08:10):
gonna get out there too? Dangerous Certain shots at the president.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
If people will convince themselves Trump shot a bullet at
his own ear to help win the election. They're not
going to listen to you when you try to explain
the tariff war.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
No. And they're not going to listen to you when
you explain that those protests were all bought and paid for. No. No,
that's it. The whole country agrees with me. Trump's bad, right.

Speaker 4 (08:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:35):
Yeah, they'll believe that Donald Trump tried to have himself assassinated,
but they won't believe that a group of people who
stopped protesting the Tesla dealership right at noon were paid
to be there.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
I think you want to believe that. I don't think
you do. I don't think you do. Believe that. You're
just saying you do for the sake of argument, right now.
Sounds about right. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
Anyway, So you're awake. We're awake. It's time for your
maga man kids. Does everybody love a good maga minute?
Over the weekend, a blond woman named Caroline Levitt put
on a tight blue dress buttoned up in the front.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
There. I don't think that dress has any choice but
to be tight.

Speaker 2 (09:12):
Yeah, And and this she actually did the Maga minute
in under a minute this time, So here's your White
House Press secretary from Friday.

Speaker 4 (09:19):
Hey guys, it was another very busy week. There were
some historic announcements, so let's roll through it for the
MAGA minute. This week, Vice President JD. Vance and National
Security Advisor Mike Waltz took a trip to Greenland to
reaffirm the United States support for the territory. The President
signed an executive order to eliminate predatory ticket resellers from

(09:41):
the live entertainment market, which will put entertainment consumers first.

Speaker 3 (09:45):
And he was there with the One and Only Kid Rock.

Speaker 4 (09:48):
The President signed an executive order to establish an investment
Accelerator to bring in more investments here in the United States.

Speaker 3 (09:57):
And Liberation Day arrived with President Trump implementing a ten
percent global tariff and additional reciprocal tariffs on countries around
the world who have been ripping off the United States
of America in our workforce. The President sent a very
strong message that Americans will no longer be taken advantage
of by globalist trade policies. It's the Golden rule for

(10:19):
the Golden age of American economic prosperity.

Speaker 4 (10:22):
We will see you for next week's Maga minute.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
Okay, so the response from the Kid Rock thing wasn't
about how great that'll be to help stop people from
being predators to our concert ticket industry.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
No, it was how why didn't he wear a suit?
You know, you got mad at Zelenski for not wearing
a suit. But when Kid Rock does, it is kid
Rock the leader of a state. Is he the government?
Is he involved in a major war? Not yet?

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Did he even have anything to do with the bill
or was he just there for publicity's sake because he was,
you know, sure? And then the bill last week. We
didn't get a lot of credit for that. Crossing the
aisle right, loving the other side, you know, getting along
with your opposites. They say, the tariff war still isn't over.
The futures are down today, for the record.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
Yeah it's been down. Stock market is down all across
the world. You last Friday and already where it's Monday. Well,
hopefully that ends soon. Elon Musk has an interesting idea,
and of course, this is one of Donald Trump's top advisors, consultants,
if you will, in his administration. Maybe if this deal
goes the way we hope it does, there could be

(11:33):
a zero tariff situation between US and Europe.

Speaker 5 (11:35):
I hope that the United States and Europe can establish
a very close partnership. We obviously are, there's an alliance already,
but I'm hopeful that there can be a very close
relationship with America and Europe. And I'm hopeful, for example,

(11:56):
with the tariffs, that that at the end of the day,
I hope it is greed that both Europe and the
United States should move ideally in my view, to a
zero tariff situation, effectively creating a free trade zone between
Europe and North America.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
You know, Elon Musk isn't always the most exciting, but
I feel like when you play the music of Europe behind.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
Him, it does really help. That brings it around, really
added something to it. There a zero tariff situation between
US and the European Union. Really half of the country
here seems to like being cheated. They seem to like
the fact that other countries can charge us tariffs and
that's fine. We really shouldn't be doing that.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
You know, this did point out another contradiction in the
left narrative. They often say that Donald Trump's just doing
things for the billionaires, just doing things for Wall Street.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
This teriff war.

Speaker 2 (12:47):
The one group of people it's obviously bad for is
Wall Street, not the rich folks. But weirdly, that's the
whole argument here, is finally we're going to do something
for the working class people that don't have a four.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
To oh one k.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
They are a roth or an Ira, They're the ones
that will benefit from this the most, especially in the
short term.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
And liberals response to that is no, no, we hate it.
Let's do something for Wall Street. Wall Street suffering. If
you haven't kept up. Over the weekend, there was a
lot of phone calls made, and right now it looks
like about fifty, actually over fifty countries are already negotiating

(13:27):
to do fair and equal trade as opposed to know
the upside down backwards way they've been doing it. So
right now, countries like India, Vietnam, Israel, they're all negotiating
with Trump, twenty seven countries in the European nation alone,
lowering car tariffs, increasing purchases of US energy, military equipment,

(13:51):
all that. But it's still bad they Wall Street, I guess,
or the politicians whoever's directing all this, they want to
continue to sell you the bad news and make it
look bad for Trump, well, orange man bad right at ETHOL.
You know you win everybody today, Today, Monday morning, Monday, Monday,
what do you mean? Monday? Walton and Johnson Radio Network,
