Speaker 1 (00:00):
Who's here, And mister Kenneth, how are you? It's just
fair to contain my excite.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
But I'm so it's just great to be up and
at work on a Monday morning.

Speaker 1 (00:09):
It does feel good. Uh, what'd you do this weekend?

Speaker 2 (00:12):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (00:12):
You know, the weekend do what it do, baby, that's right, Yeah,
just not over the weekend. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
No, I didn't kill anybody, or nobody that I knew
close to me died as far as I know. So
you know, the weekend did what it did in a
good way.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
And you're not same same here, Yes, it did. Did
you know?

Speaker 3 (00:29):
Back in twenty eleven, Gavin Newsom wanted to make California
great again. No, Gavin Newsom and his whole thing now
is he's actively running for president against absolutely against Donald Trump,
who's not actually running for president.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
Yeah, and Gavin Newsom will tell you that he is,
so that you know, that fires up the derangement sentrome
in it ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
Back in twenty eleven, Gavin Newsom said his plan was
to make California great again. He especially talks about job growth,
and now California has the highest unemployment rate in the country.

Speaker 4 (01:00):
And my plan just quickly Scott is not about getting
us back so that we're sustainable. It's about getting us
back to our greatness. I mean, that's the plan. California
has always been about greatness. Between nineteen fifty and nineteen eighty,
this state was great in every way, shape or.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
For uh huh.

Speaker 4 (01:18):
From a job's perspective, we grew a job growth an
annual basis of three point seven percent the nation at
two point two percent. We substantially outperformed the rest of
the nation in job creation. But since nineteen eighty to
two thousand and ten these numbers came out in March,
we have flatlined at one point one percent.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
And now the highest unemployment rate in the country.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
Thanks Kevin, You're kind of like a graph of what
democrats in office will do for you. When I heard
him explaining that, I kind of thought he was going
to go in the other direction with him, you know,
you know, we'd want the employment rate to.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
Go down well, of course, but it sounded like that
was not his plan.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
I was just reading about the indictment the that LaToya
is that LaToya is in a you know, indictment is
such an ugly word.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
The mayor of New Orleans for those of talking.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
About In two or three articles I read nothing against
the education system in the great State of Louisiana, but
several articles said she was indicated on eighteen charges. Indicated
an indictment look a lot alike. So we don't, you know,
call people out for that. It is remarkable though, that

(02:30):
not one there is not one Republican among all the
elected officials of the City of New Orleans. Democrats have
been elected to all positions, you know, mayor obviously, school board, council, judgeships,
state legislative seats based in New Orleans, all Democrats. And

(02:51):
it's just one criminal mayor after another. It seems like,
over and over and over, progressive or socialist communists, whatever
you like to call them, the policies that dominate the
entire New Orleans area have been catastrophic. Okay, let's talk
about the education system, since they don't know how to

(03:12):
spell indicted.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Some of them.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Now, state wide, Louisiana is forty fourth in the nation
in education. Right now, that being said, they're reading proficiency
for the New Orleans schools at thirty two percent.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Yeah, I thought it went up.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
They used to be in second to last, and it
shot up I don't know what the exact numbers are,
but you're probably right.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
Overall, New Orleans public schools rate A three out of ten,
the bottom fifty percent of public schools statewide. And again,
the state is not doing that great and New Orleans
is under fifty percent compared to the rest.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Of the state. So yeah, that's that's not good.

Speaker 3 (03:57):
Not a you know, I'm not a I'm not an
expert on edge education here, but I get the impression. Uh,
last place is pretty bad, right, pretty bad. Yeah, that's
that's not where you want to be. Unfortunately, you know.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
That's just the Crescent City. You know, everybody will just
shrug it and go, yeah, but we go.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
Eat the Mursts. Let's just semstus. I wish they would
treat LaToya better.

Speaker 5 (04:17):
I've been witch hunt since day one. I've been fighting
acquisitions after acquisition. So did I divide the city? Yes, No,
the city was designed before he was step.

Speaker 3 (04:30):
Foot into the off That was actually not LaToya Catrell.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
That was what was her name, Dede.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
That was Dedee Slaughter, the former mayor of Port Allen, Louisiana.
But uh, after LaToya got into trouble this week, and
I was just reminded of that SoundBite that maybe one
of my favorite political sound bites ever. That was a
good one because you know, after all, nobody wants to
be witch hunt after which hunt no fighting and what
was it she got in trouble with fighting? Acquisitions after acquisitions? Yeah, yeah,

(05:01):
we I close enough. Yeah, it's port Allen for godshake. Yeah,
come on this the bar is pretty loan porn Ilan.
Everybody's been focused on the crimea cha.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
You mentioned crime earlier Ukraine and Russia because of the
meeting in Alaska and all that kind of stuff. Here's
one of our listeners with their thoughts, and everybody is
entitled to their own opinion, right, Okay, So the question here,
One of our biggest enemies in the world is losing hundreds,

(05:33):
maybe thousands of military troops every week. Our enemy is
fighting one of the most corrupt countries in the world.
Neither Russia nor Ukraine is our friend. Why are we
trying so hard to stop them? Do people really think
that Russia is going to invade Poland and the rest

(05:53):
of Europe after this? Because they can't even take on
Ukraine right now, it does look kind of bad.

Speaker 3 (06:00):
Invading Poland would change everything entirely because Poland is a
member of NATO. I know, we have an agreement assigned
treaty with all the NATO nations.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
That means we've come a run in. Huh.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
Absolutely, If Russia goes to war with Poland, it's an
attack on the United States of America.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
That's how NATO works.

Speaker 4 (06:15):
Now.

Speaker 3 (06:16):
I don't really like NATO, but that rules are the rules.
And if Russia knows.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
That, they're not only like it more if you lived
in Poland, sure a bit. Probably yeah, because they got
you know, they're covering you.

Speaker 3 (06:27):
On the topic of the global nuclear war and rogue
nations that seem to be our adversaries. There's been a
lot of discussion lately of how North Korea is sending
troops to Russia, and a lot of discussion of how
I Ran and Russia are doing business deals right now
to supply each other with weapons. And obviously these nations

(06:48):
are closely aligned with China. Some people might think, you know,
China's decided not to get involved in this whole thing.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
I don't agree. I am.

Speaker 3 (06:55):
I'm gonna play conspiracy theory here for just a second,
if you don't mind. Tenfoil had time I won't play
the intro. I know you don't like it.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
It's so rare that anybody would bring up a conspiracy.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
Okay, so you remember the growing horns and tentacles on
the rabbits that have been sp rabbits?

Speaker 1 (07:11):
Yeah, very strange, scary bunny.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
Have you seen in the zombie squirrels covered in oozing
wartz spotted sulking through the US backyard?

Speaker 4 (07:19):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (07:20):
Lord no, they're just as awful looking as the rabbits.
The rabbits are very strange. Doesn't this kind of seem
like eowas gross?

Speaker 1 (07:28):
Remember that China.

Speaker 3 (07:29):
Chinese agents have been in the United States recently with
biological weapons, trying to destroy farmland and kill our environment in.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
It, they thought taking out bunnies and squirrels was the
way to get to us.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
I mean, I'm not saying that's what happened, but aren't.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
They lovable generally? But look at that. That's so gross.
Nobody would love that squirrel.

Speaker 3 (07:47):
I'm not saying that's what happened, Bill, yet, I'm saying
during my adult lifetime, I don't ever remember seeing rabbits
with tentacles and horns growing out.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
As definitely a new thing, is it? Artificial intelligence. Is
that what's happened yet?

Speaker 3 (08:00):
And I don't ever remember seeing these zombie scrolls before
with the weird pussing wartsaw, I've never seen that.

Speaker 2 (08:06):
And apparently it looks like they got the mange or ringworm,
or maybe it's like Chinese version of ringworm, probably way
worse than the kind we used to get here.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
I'm not saying that that's what happened.

Speaker 3 (08:21):
I'm just saying that we know Chinese agents have been
in the country recently with with germs, with vials full
of dangerous viruses that they were planning on spreading to
things like wildlife and our crops, our farmland, our agriculture,
not to mention you know, state parks and national parks.
We know they were trying to do that. Isn't the
timing of this a little odd?

Speaker 2 (08:42):
It sounds like it's exactly right, you know, for the enemy.
They're probably winning this thing because we're all sitting back
laughing at rabbit tentacles.

Speaker 3 (08:51):
Well, it is pretty gross looking, it is. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The problem is if we're the only ones that notice it,
and you know, our audience not exactly government agents.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
So we are we advised to not make any contact
with the zombie squirrels At this point.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
I would say don't.

Speaker 3 (09:07):
But then also you got to wonder, we have some
listeners in places like you know, rural Louisiana that r
that will make this.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Stuff into gumbo. Damn straight.

Speaker 3 (09:16):
What if eating the zombie squirrels or the zombie tentacle
rabbits and a gumbo actually could be your origin story
as a superhero?

Speaker 1 (09:24):
An we gives you special powers? Eh? Yeah, yeah, you
know what I'm talking about. I like it. Yeah. Walton
and Johnson Radio Network, you do it right there.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
Hi, everybody, thanks for turning on your radio. A pleasure
to be with you today.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
Did I hear y'all talk about Trump derangemal syndrome a
little bit this morning?

Speaker 1 (09:41):
There has been Did you see any of the tds
over the weekend?

Speaker 3 (09:46):
Quite a bit of it. Yeah, on full display everywhere.
You love football game, which particularly the Saints. Oh no,
the it'd a Falcon's owner. I don't know if you're
familiar with this man. His name is Author Blank.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
He decided it would be good to, you know, because
it's preseason, so you bring the owner in and interview
them and talk about the game and the players and
who's looking good blah blah blah, and author Blank, owner
of the Falcons, decided that would be the golden opportunity
to talk about the fact that democracy is at stake.

Speaker 1 (10:21):
Oh now the Lord during the football game. Well you
know what that means. This is what does it mean?
Oh yeah, it was more about politics than sports, but
it technically counts like that. Now this is a sports
repart and it's brought to you by.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
Uh, it brought to you by my Legacy Video. I
think y'all ought to all, you know, get together, maybe
do one for me.

Speaker 3 (10:44):
All right. What I like about my Legacy Video dot
Com is that if you have a family member in
the later years of their life, or maybe you just
have somebody in your family that's so young that they've
never heard, you know, Uncle Otis tell the story of
the time that he stormed the beaches of Normandy or
whatever it may, then you can have the people at
my Legacy Video sit down with them, put a camera
in their face, and your family member could tell a long,

(11:07):
boring story and they'll added it down, so it's just
the interesting parts.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
They're also real good at asking the right kind of questions,
So the story isn't boring.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
Yeah, they may make good. They can actually bring stuff out.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
You know, like you said, down with Grandpa, chat with
him a little bit and then go on your way.
And then lady, you find out I had no idea
Grandpa did all that. Well, you didn't ask the right questions.
The legacy video guys, they.

Speaker 3 (11:32):
Know, Yeah, it's really incredible my legacy video dot com.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
All right, let's talk about football. All right? Well, I
was already I know Atlanta Falcons.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
I'm gonna talked about you know, back in Kamala Harris,
he backed her for president. How about go Well, now
when he says democracy is on the attack, it's on distress,
it's under pressure. Uh just remember democracy is what got
us here where Kamala Harris run for president without winning

(12:01):
one primary, not one, not one primary. She was installed
ever by the Democrat and that is a threat to
democracy if they ever was one. But he said no, no,
she was the way to go and we didn't go
that way. And as a shining and he also supports
the political party that has super delegates in more than
once over the last decade, tried to rig a debate

(12:24):
in their.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
Own parties primary. They can't even be trusted with their
own candidate, much less the general election.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
But yeah, that probably shouldn't be pointing fingers until you,
you know, maybe work on your own.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
State a little bit.

Speaker 3 (12:36):
Well, since we're doing political Sports News the Disney owned
ESPN and film that's directed by Spike Lee, it's not
going to be coming out. He was going to do
a film about Colin Kaepernick, a series about very controversial
National Anthem protester. Spike Lee says, yeah, it's not happening now.
ESPN has ditched it. They've decided probably at this point

(12:56):
nobody really cares about Colin Kaepernick. I don't know if
it's worth it to finish the film. Spike Lee says,
that's racist. But then again, you know you can still
They still releasing and funded himself. No one's stopping him
from doing that exactly.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
Yeah, go ahead, all right.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
Over the weekend, Astros had a little trouble with the Orioles.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
That's a bird a little bit.

Speaker 4 (13:15):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
Friday lost seven to nothing, and Saturday heaked out a win,
and then last night with yesterday twelve to nothing, Astros
was was skunked. They like to say, that's a blanked
you know they twelve nothing.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
I didn't watch this game closely, but the Astros have
a much better record than the Orioles.

Speaker 1 (13:37):
Why did they get spanked so bad? Maybe they just
took a day off.

Speaker 2 (13:40):
Yeah, you know, but they still want and a half
games ahead in the division.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
So we'll see how that go.

Speaker 3 (13:46):
Braves beat the Guardians, Rangers beat the Blue Jays ten
to four.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
Uh, pretty good looking thing there.

Speaker 3 (13:52):
Say it's Jags fans brawling in a preseason game in
the big easy.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
Oh, it's preseason on the field, but it's like mid
season in stands.

Speaker 3 (14:02):
Preseason games do not count, are not supposed to be
a serious affair, But apparently this did get pretty serious.
On Sunday, one exceptionally large man and another merely large
man engaged in fisticuffs at the preseason game between the
Jags and the Saints at the Caesar super Dome in
New Orleans. I hate to be the one to point

(14:22):
this out, but there was a little bit of a
racial division here. I guess you could say it was
a white guy versus black guy. Nobody like, and the
white guy swung first. As far as we could tell
from the video. We don't actually know what happened. We
weren't there, but you hate to see that. I got
the video on the screen here.

Speaker 1 (14:39):
It looks like one of those guys is not a
Saints fan.

Speaker 3 (14:43):
Yeah, he's a Jad. The white guy is a Jags fan.
He old to go ahead and get on out. Yeah.
The two attempted to gauge the range between each other
with some wild long distance shots before the Jags fan,
in wearing a Travis Hunter shirt, decided to go for
a single leg his opponent.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
Take down on it.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
A man of significant girth could not be budged, but
also failed to make the Jags fan eat any shots
while being caught in a compromising position.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
I did one fat fellow there and look at that
his pants. Fellow, pants came up over his head, That's all.
And then they both back at it again.

Speaker 3 (15:16):
The Jags fan quickly recovered from his air landed a
shot that seemed to make the opponent feel like Floyd
Mayweather who is the court, and started flashing his duke's.
But the extra exchange saw the Jags fan partially connect
on a punch that seemed to strike the Saints fan
in the neck, causing.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
Him to slip to the door mat I wish I'd
have been there, I know, and a handle both of them.

Speaker 3 (15:35):
Man, I always put him down. I feel like I
always missed this stuff. I also wish I had been there.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
Another sports news real quick shout out, uh to my brother,
my partner in New wall as Burrowse's kanga.

Speaker 1 (15:48):
You knew this guy, not that guy.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
Okay, so another story ken it move away from the
fight then Burley's kanga.

Speaker 5 (15:55):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
I met him when he was doing the tennis coaching
out at the Shop to Country Club about one hundred
years ago in Kennel. After that he had moved on
coaching at the University of New Orleans. He received and
I knew he was getting it, but I didn't want
to say nothing. He received the.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
Eddie Robinson Award.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
It's very prestigious for his coaching career. Congratulations by the way,
not only coach you and O, but he played there
as a young man with a record of eighty one
and nine.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
Damn. That's pretty serious right there. That is pretty serious. Well,
congratulations to him.

Speaker 2 (16:33):
Very cool and he's also he looks like Omars Sheriff,
which is a really great thing. Of course, it looks
like him, you know, back in the forties or fifties,
whenever Omar Sharif was young.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
Mister ow, is he gang up the thing? You're just
sad your did.

Speaker 5 (16:49):
I've been witch hunt since day one. I've been fighting
acquisitions after acquisition. So did I divide the city?

Speaker 1 (16:57):
Yes?

Speaker 5 (16:58):
No, the city was finally before even stepped foot into
the office.
