(05:59):
this ice cream condy. It's also on this day. In
fourteen ninety nine, Switzerland became an independent state. Isn't that important?
And we still celebrated here every year?

Speaker 2 (06:08):
And we didn't let the Swiss didn't let women vote
until the seventies or the eighties.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
Smart, I think so too. Say in seventeen seventy six,
the British execution of Nathan Hale for espionage. You remember
how we always talk about how consequences of your actions. Well,
he could say what he wanted and he was he
was smart enough to understand most of the you know
guys back in the seventeen seventies, they understood what they

(06:34):
were doing, they know, yeah, and that they could be
consequences for his actions. He did it anyway. He did
it anyway. A spy on a mission for George Washington's army.
He was spying on the Red Coats. They caught him
and of course they hung him. He said, I only
regret that I have but one life to lose for

(06:54):
my country.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
What a cool guy man? Was he a doctor too?
If I'm not mistaken, Probably a lot of them were then. Yeah,
back then everybody was a doctor.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
Is really common. Today's also the day at eighteen sixty two,
you're in the midst of that very uncivil war. Abraham
Lincoln issued the preliminary the Yeah, there was a preliminary emancipation,
but it was the MS Special Proclamation saying that all
slaves should be free as of January one of next year,
eighteen sixty three.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
Do you think at the time you knew it was
the preliminary emancipation prog Is this the preliminary this day
in history? Like, are we even doing the real this
day in history?

Speaker 1 (07:31):
I guess we'll get to the official.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
Later Today, in eighteen eighty eight, the first issue in
the National Geographic was published.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
Yeah, I know what was in there on tribal women naked.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
Today, in eighteen oh three, at Tallo Maerconi patents his
ice cream cone machine.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
That's why it's the ice cream And today, in nineteen
sixty one, President Kennedy signs a law establishing the Peace Corps.
Excuse me speech, Peace Corpsps? Thank you? Yeah.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
Today, in nineteen seventy five, President Ford survives his second
assassin attempted seventeen days.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
Why would you kill him, what would you even get?
You know, I guess just the people were just begging
for attention, just like today. A remember the Manson family
tried to take out Gerald Ford and then three weeks
later this one that was Sarah Jane Moore More failed
in her attempt. Did you know they were still doing

(08:22):
farm aid on w They had it this past weekend,
right on this day, and let's see nineteen eighty five,
the first farm Aid. Over the weekend they had their
fortieth anniversary of farm Aid. Performers included Willie Nelson, Neil Young,
Bob Dylan, John Mellencamp, Dave Matthews, but not with his band.
He performed with Tim Reynolds. Never heard of him, Never

(08:42):
heard of him. Kenny Chesney, never heard of him, Nathaniel
Ratliffe and the Night Sweats. Too much money they make
this year? Steve Earle was there. Yeah, I don't Winona
Judd I said. In the first year, back in eighty five,
they raised seven million dollars for America's family farmers. Have
you ever met a farmer that has benefited? And you know,

(09:05):
it's like living the sweet life now because Willie Nelson
gave them a bunch of money.

Speaker 3 (09:09):
No.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
And also at the same festival they had the Wisdom
Indian Dancers, which is a Native American dance trip. Here's
my question, if.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
You were someone that believed that your land was stolen
and given away to the white man, would you participate
in a music festival to raise money for the white
man to survive on that land.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
I guess a lot of them have kind of shrugged
it off over the last couple of hundred years and
have said, well, what are you gonna do? Oh? Some haven't.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
Wow, that's great. Could someone explain that to the people
in Palestine? I wish they could.

Speaker 3 (09:38):
Yeah, your kids are starving.

Speaker 4 (09:40):
Carls Junior believes no child should go hungry.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
You are an unfit mother. Your children will be placed
in the custody of Carls Junior. This is the Walton
and Johnson Show.

Speaker 2 (09:51):
There is some discussion on social media this morning, in
like the worst corners of social media, where they're suggesting
they don't understand how Erica curR could forgive her husband's assassin.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
I knew that would be a little bit controversial, but
yesterday during the funeral slash revival, they when she spoke,
she said that's what Charlie would have done, and that
she forgives him now. She still said she would, you know,
like the state to go ahead and do what they do,

(10:22):
which I think means find him guilty and maybe incarcerate
him forever or give him, you know, the death penalty.
But in her heart, she says she's managed now. You know,
sometimes I think you say that hoping that your heart
will go along with you, right, And your brain may

(10:43):
think it, But I still gotta think that's not true. Forgiveness.
I don't know. That's a tough call.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
May I wax poetic for just a moment on something
that I know objectively, but I don't know if I
live it. You forgive other for yourself, You forgive others
for your own well being. You forgive others for your
own peace of mind. It's not just about them, right.
Sometimes you do the forgiveness so that you can go
on with your life. And I mean, I'll be the

(11:12):
first to a man, I don't do that.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
No. I got a lot of grudges. I got a
lot of your heart is just filled with hate. You
mentioned that earlier this morning, and Charlie would tell you
that you shouldn't have that. Well, he's right. I know
we're not all there yet. We're all trying maybe to
be better people. If you think you need to be
a little bit better, keep working on it. Ask yourself,
what would Charlie Kirk do? Well, he would do what

(11:36):
Jesus would do, and I would try to do that.
Would I actually do it? I don't know. I'll mite
them sold bitches, That's what I'd do.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
We made a point earlier I compared Charlie Kirk to
Martin Luther King Junior, and somebody sent us a video
of a black preacher disagreeing with that point.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
Oh why did he disagree?

Speaker 2 (11:53):
Because Martin Luther King Junior went to orgies and cheated
on his wife and he beat up women once in
a while.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
Allegedly we weren't there. We don't know, but that's the
stories that have gotten around. And Charlie Kirk probably didn't
do that. I don't think so. And those stories that
got around about I don't know about, you know, whether
he you know, got a little rough with the ladies.
But MLK, from people that hung out with him and
maybe enjoyed that too, did seem to venture outside of

(12:22):
the bounds of his holy matrimony. Yeah. Look, I don't know.
I wasn't there exactly, but they both at least claimed
to believe the same things. They have the same beliefs, right, Yeah,
they were. And the big thing, which when we're kind
of looking at the umbrella, the overall goodness of the
person and the things that they said and stood for.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
Yeah, and then the big thing that they both agreed
on was go out and have discussions. Discuss things with
your political opposites, discuss things with your ideological and theological opposites.
Find people you don't agree with, and engage with them
in a healthy debate.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
And when you're done, you know, don't murder each other.
That that should probably come up even sooner. How about
don't murder each other, but you can argue all you want. Well, yeah,
how about that exactly? I mean, why not? Man, Now,
if your heart is even half filled with hate, I
want to push something else into your heart that'll fill

(13:20):
you with joy, perhaps even bliss, so that that hate
has no place to stay. Well, shove it in. Go ahead.
I am very excited to announce that in just two weeks,
Taylor Swift will have another film at the box office.
You can go to the theater and watch Taylor Swift
the first weekend of October, as she has a film

(13:43):
coming out to introduce you to her new album. Is
that what you're gonna tell us before you tell us
the thing that's really exciting? That's the excitement. That's that's
all why everybody is all excited. Taylor's tush move. I
don't know if we're the right audience for another another
nice movie coming out.

Speaker 2 (13:58):
Yeah, over the weekend Handsome and performed with John Stamos
at a punk rock festival in Chicago.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
I think that's interesting.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
My god, could you imagine waiting and they had a
rain delay, and everybody waited, and then finally Hansen came
out with John Stamos.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
They didn't get that that was God's way of telling
them to go home, Just get out of here, just
make it rain. Yeah, leave now, and don't drive drunk kids.
That's that's the most important part. Tum No Up Equinox
is upon us, mister, just a few hours away now,
and this portion of the show is brought brought to

high as a kite. And it's the.

Speaker 4 (14:58):
Pumped and vice.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
I actually got some of that pumpkin spice brake fluid.
It works pretty much as good as regular brake fluid.
And I didn't know because I just grabbed the brake
fluid and it went up to the counter and when
I walked out, they're like, enjoy your pumpkin spice. Yeah,
what you know? What do you know? Burna now has
pumpkin spice pepper palets. That's really smart. The Burna is

(15:24):
that gun that's less than lethal. It's a compacked shooter thing,
no background checks, falonskin on them, and it's got like
little round balls it shoots, and some of them are
very hard and that will just hurt people that are
trying to hurt you. You don't like the hard balls,
but it won't kill them. And then some are the
same kind of little round balls, but they're filled with

(15:47):
that pepper spray kind of stuff. So when you shoot
them with it, it makes a cloud around them. And
now they'll have pumpkin spice love take clouds around them. Wow.
How about that. That's something that's I'm really smart. Move.
We got some sad news today, guys. Apparently Sonny Curtis died.
Oh no, yeah.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
Singer songwriter Sunny Curtis died on Friday after Sunday on
this He was eighty eight years old. During his long career,
he was a member of Buddy Holly's Crickets. He wrote
the rock en rolled classic I Fought the Law covered
here by the Carsam Yeah huh, And he also wrote
the theme song of the Mary Tyler.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
Moore shown This is not that No, this is a
class for law. Yeah, I like it. The Mary Tyler
Moore themes though it was very different. Yeah, it was
a little different.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
A friend of mine who's from Nashville, Doug Gillmore, came
to my house one morning. He said, would you like
it I shot at the Mary Tyler Moore show. They're
going to do a sitting down with her. I said,
well sure. That took about two seconds for me to
figure that out, and he sent me over to CBS
to a guy named James L. Brooks who was the
producer of the show. He set me down and he
said saying, with what you got, and I did.

Speaker 1 (16:54):
And that's how it happened. You can turn the wood
with her.

Speaker 3 (16:58):
Some did.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Oh, yeah, you can changeing day suddenly made it off worthwhile.
It's you girl, you should know it. Oh, it's you girls, grandson.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
Did you know, mister Kennoth, I think this portion of
the show is just from mister Kenneth. Did you know
that Sonny Curtis updated the Mary Tyler Moore theme after
the first season had no idea.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
This is like they did with Gilligan's Island. They changed
it after the first go round.

Speaker 2 (17:27):
Originally had a more anxious in tentative phrases like how
will you make it on your own and you might
just make it after all.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
The updated version was more optimistic. It's more positive you
will succeed. Speaking of her smile, he said, you are
gonna make it? Wow, will you make it?

Speaker 2 (17:49):
This weird ish Many believe that I thought the Law
was an original from the Buddy Holly four, but Sonny
Curtis actually wrote and performed it with the Crickets in
nineteen sixty. It was released a year after Buddy Holly
died in a plane crash. Here's a sample of the
critics Cricket's original.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
I'll break in the rocks. I'm fun bit cheery for
somebody who had a run in with the lull.

Speaker 2 (18:21):
Sonny had left the band prior to Buddy's plane crash.
He reunited with other Cricket members to record later that year,
I Fought the Law. It didn't become a hit song
until the Bobby Fuller four covered it six years later.
Can you imagine Sonny's surprise when the Clash covered it
in the nineteen eighties.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
Think he got a little mailbox money for that, And
then Green Day did it with Iggy Pop in two
thousand and four. It is a great song, dude, one
of the coolest man times.

Speaker 2 (18:47):
Anyway, Rest in peace to what's the guy's name, Sonny Curtis.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
I got yeah, yeah, right, mop Sonny Crocket. That was
a different guy. Here's the thing about that.

Speaker 2 (18:54):
I just found out he existed like ten fifteen minutes ago.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
Miss him totally. I bet waited a lot of cool stuff.
I mean, I thought the law Mary Toyler Moore, plus
that song of the Clash covered I love that that
one too. Yeah, that was a good one. I have
some very upsetting news about Caitlin Clark. I'm sure we
all remember the face of the WNBA. It's not Brittany

(19:18):
griner Na not well, it might soon be. Caitlyn got
in a little little trouble apparently, even though she's not playing,
she has called out the referees in the WNBA for
making some bad calls. Well, they find her two hundred dollars.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
Oh man, that's gonna take like three months to get
that money back with her salary.

Speaker 1 (19:42):
That is almost her entire WNBA salary. That's it. Yeah.
Now the good news is, you know, balance that out.
She makes about eleven million dollars in endorsements, so you know,
I get she's okay. Yeah, that is, you better watch
that mouth. Your mouth gets you in trouble. She wasn't

(20:03):
familiar with the consequences of her actions, you know. Weirdly,
my mouth has never gotten me into trouble. Uh big
to differ, Okay, except the multiple times I've been arrested,
punched in the face, had a woman walk out on me,
or was dragged by a car in the middle of
the desert. Other than that, okay, then yeah, no, you're right. No,
this is what the hill the newles ain't showing off.
