Speaker 1 (00:00):
We got this letter from a guy in prison. He
sends us a lot of letters. Is it the same
guy every time?
Speaker 2 (00:05):
I think so.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
It's confusing because his name's Brian, but sometimes the letter
says it comes from Scott. I wonder if that's like
his prison boss or something. I don't know. Well, this
is what we call jail snail mail. Yeah, right. It's
the jail snail mail report.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
He wrote in a couple weeks ago, but we get it.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Yeah. And we were out of town for a while.
It says here, hey, guys, thank you for doing a
great show. I wanted to follow up on something. I
put two names in that letter I sent you. I
don't remember what the names were. He said one of
the inmates here told another inmate about the Walton and
Johnson show. That inmate said, I don't like that show.
(00:46):
I don't listen to the Walton and Johnson show because
they don't like sex offenders. Oh, well, yeah, that's a
good reason not to listen. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Brian, if that gentleman can hear us right now, I
want to talk to him for just a second.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Or just pass the word along next time you're out
in the yard. Sir, nobody likes sex offenders. That's not
a unique position for us. I think most people listening
to this radio show, especially the men, could probably think
of a situation where, although they probably don't want to,
they could hypothetically kill.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Billy, did you get what I'm saying?
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Boy, do I ever. Or you could hypothetically like steal
to feed your family or, you know, some crime you
wouldn't want to commit, but you could think of an
example of where you'd have to commit it if put
in a certain situation. Right. There's no circumstance where I
could think of a reason to rape or molest or,
you know what I mean? Like, what would that, you know,
(01:39):
what would the hypothetical thing be where, ah, commit a
sex crime or else?
Speaker 2 (01:43):
I don't know what that would be. Right.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Well, I'm sure sex crime offenders probably like sex crime.
But we frown on it here at the Walt and
Johnson Show, and we've always taken that stand.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
And there's no way that makes us unique. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I don't know anyone out there that would be like, well,
we're the radio show for sex offenders. Well, you know,
that one guy down the hall.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Okay, him, obviously. Well, he's a little sus as a kid, so.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Now, let's review real quick about this, how we're going
to make Mr. O do sports. No, no, no. It's
the Walton & Johnson Sports Report. We're not making you
do anything. That's what you said when we went to break.
I guess we're going to have to make you do sports.
That sounds a little bit massery.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
You know what I'm saying? It is your job.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Oh, yes, mass. Let me get them sports on for
you there, sir. I'm not saying that you have to
do it. I'm just saying if you don't do sports,
we'll withhold food and money. And probably take my kids
away from me or something, you know. Send my wife
off to work down at another radio station or somewhere.
I don't know what you might have in mind.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
You have a wife?
Speaker 1 (02:55):
No, I don't.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
But, you know, if I did, that's what you'd do. Okay.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
That's probably the reason I don't have one. All right.
Sports Report with Mr. O is brought to you by... Well, yeah,
I was wondering if you were going to get around
to that. Brought to you by MyPillow. Naturally, MyPillow has
a big sale going on right now. It seems like
they always do. And it is... It's fantastic. It is
really great. If you've been looking at some products and
you thought, well, I don't know, should I spend a
(03:18):
little money? You can also save money on the sale
items with a promo code WJ. WJ is always a
great idea.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Save the most money with promo code WJ.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
And Mike Lindell's back at the helm. He ain't running
for office no more, so he's in there every day
making sure everything is just right for you.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
He's making sure those pillows are still machine washable.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
A lot of the sports news I got is what
we call sports adjacent. Okay. And one of them is
actually a Florida man story. So I'm going to save
that one back for a little while. I will tell
you this. Tony Romo have pleaded no contest to that OWI.
What the hell? Operating while under the influence. Actually, it
(04:04):
should O-V-W-I because it's operating a V vehicle.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
We get it. Trunk DUI. Trunk truck. Got it.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
He got arrested back in July. I'm sure you remember
that little old tap dance, the song and dance routine
that he put on for him while he was stretching
and trying to be sweet and kind of flirty with
the police lady, but she wasn't playing. So that's done.
I guess they're going to look at that now. This
is going to, well, I'll just tell you how it is.
(04:32):
Colin Kaepernick is back in the news today. What? Isn't
this remarkable? The guy will be 39 years old this season.
And he says, even though he's been gone for over
a decade. It's been 10 years since this whole thing
started with the kneeling and the foolishment. He's well past
the point where any average quarterback probably would have retired
in their mid to early 30s. But he wants you
(04:54):
to believe the only thing keeping him out of the
NFL is the.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Fact that he got all political.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
It's racism, all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Didn't he quit his job, though?
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Yeah, he did. And then he wanted to know why
they didn't ask him back. Now, 10 years later, Cap
back in the news again because the football season is
about to start. And he says, you need to be
boycotting the NFL like he does now. He'll still watch
college football, but he boycotted the NFL. Now, just a coincidence,
I know, that just happened to come up. He got
(05:25):
a book to sell you. In about two weeks, his memoir.
That's what they call him. A story about his life
is coming out. And so he won't jump back in
the news. And, of course, the people in the news
are happy to help him with that. Well, because what
are we doing right now? I know.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
It's easy. You just promoted his book.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
But do you think any of our listeners are going
to go out there and spend $ 10? And I'm sure
it's going to cost more than that. If it was $ 1. 50,
I don't think our listeners would be throwing that down
for Colin Kaepernick's book unless they needed it to, you know,
balance a table leg or something. No, but because you're
criticizing it now, some other left-wing radio show could be like,
look at these right-wingers criticizing civil rights hero Colin Kaepernick
(06:06):
for his new book.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
And that's how it works.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
In baseball, the White Sox just rained down hell on
the Astros last night, 5-1. And that means the Astros
only have a one-game lead over the Texas Rangers because
the Rangers prevailed 8-5. Listen to that vocabulary. Yeah, I'm
studying that stuff.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
The pitching is fried right now.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Carlos Correa cleared up to ramp baseball work in Florida.
Still hurdles. Mike Burrows returned delayed. Shoulder inflammation. A lot
to be said there about the Astros. They're in a
rough position right now. Still in the lead in their division,
but boy... A lot of injuries on the team. One-game lead. Now,
Atlanta's lead two weeks ago, there was about seven, eight games.
(06:49):
Now Atlanta's lead three games because the Braves lost last night.
They just lost? No fancy wording? The Braves, didn't they
have a seven-game win streak? Well, yeah. They just got snapped.
The closer you get to the end of the season,
the more this thing is going to be tightening up. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Georgia Tech opens September 3rd versus Colorado. That's something to
take a look at.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Yeah, it ain't football time yet, but tomorrow. Yeah. Yeah,
we're going to start that in the NFL next week.
And we still have that Florida man story to tell
you about there. So that's coming up.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Billie Jean.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Do you remember Billie Jean King? She's not my lover.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
No, no, no. That's a different bill.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Are you thinking about PYT? The Pretty Young Thing? No, no.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
I'm talking about the tennis player.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
I don't believe this has nothing to do with Michael Jackson.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
No, it doesn't.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
It has to do with tennis, if I'm not mistaken.
Are you all familiar with, is tennis still a thing?
Do people still care about this? Matter of fact, it
looks as though they are still playing that old run-down
pitiful tournament of Grand Slam fame called the U.S. Open.
Women's sports has a weird problem right now. Billie Jean
King has been yelling, hey, pay attention to women's sports
(08:02):
since Nixon was in office. And now people are finally
paying attention to it. But with one asterisk, one little
caveat attached, they said, shouldn't we let men play with women?
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Finally.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
What does she say? She has spent a lifetime selling
the idea women's sports were worth the money. Title IX
is 50-plus years old. The world finally knows the receipts.
And now, with all that taking place, women's sports, well,
it didn't get popular until suddenly the rise of the
trans movement.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Do you think that's a coincidence? Just bad timing?
Speaker 1 (08:34):
And what's weird is one of their... things that made
her most famous is she played against a man in
the Astrodome in a female versus male tennis extravaganza. Now,
she was still young and played pretty good, and the
guy she was playing was way older. But still, it
was controversial, attention-getting, and all of that was on purpose.
(08:56):
But she was trying to say that... There was a
difference between men and women, and yet women were just
as good. And wasn't that event, if I'm not mistaken,
sponsored by Virginia Slims and tampon? Boy, it was a
different time back then, wasn't it? Anyway, so Billie Jean
King at the third annual Power of Women's Sports Summit
(09:18):
in New York said, presented by Elf Cosmetics.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
I don't know why that's in the report.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
A room full of different women, athletes there. And she
starts talking about how men's sports are in the trillions.
Women's sports are at about $ 3 billion revenue. If you're
in business, that gap looks like a goldmine, not a
charity case. Nobody cared before. Suddenly, weirdly, women's sports, women's basketball,
women's softball, this stuff is actually starting to matter. It's
(09:44):
more important than ever now to stop guys from playing
in the games. Oh, hell yeah. You put a man
in my lady's softball, you know, Oklahoma Sooner fan, but
I like all the games and it's fun to watch them.
Aggies got a good team. Longhorns... A bunch of good teams. Arkansas, Tennessee.
(10:07):
I'm looking forward to Fall Ball, which is coming up
in about a month. But, yeah, they don't want no
men in there. Now, I know for sports betting purposes,
it would obviously be better for us to have trans
in there because then you know who to bet on.
It's very easy. It's also better for sports in general
if you allow them to have the steroids and all
of the enhancing. Because, like you said, we could just
(10:29):
go off the charts with this thing, and they could
turn into men. muscle-bound freaks. I get what you're saying,
but that's besides the point. I'm still getting behind Billie
Jean King on this thing. Uh-oh. She doesn't want that. No, no, no.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
I mean, figuratively speaking, not literally.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
I actually support her in her cause, but as a
token misogynist, I just want to say, you know, maybe
we could just... Have a conversation here about women's sports
just a little bit. Most right-wing men, such as myself,
will support you on this, Billie Jean King, if you'll
just consider one of our requests. What is your request,
young man? I would like a little bit of say
(11:05):
on the uniforms women are wearing when they compete in
these sports. Oh, you would? Like... Hooters girls? Well, they
could save a lot of money on fabric and get
more viewership at the same time.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Think about that. Jeez. All I'm saying is.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
And now, everything you're saying has just become useless. Would
a little bit of cleavage kill you? Women spend more
time looking at sexy women on Instagram than I do.
Put the women in an outfit I want to see
them in, and I'll watch the game. I will say, now,
cleavage doesn't come into play in women's softball, but them...
(11:40):
Them tight pants? That's not why I watch the game,
but it don't hurt.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
All right, have you.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Seen the new tight pants that women are wearing when
they jog around the park now, where for some reason
the fabric goes into every crevice and curve? Oh, yeah.
It's like they cinched a saddle up a long ways.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Tell me that that wouldn't improve the softball uniforms. It
would not. That is all I'm saying. But this whole
place sucks. That's right, it sucks.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Walton and Johnson.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
I was wondering, is this a song about a car
or a woman?
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Couldn't it be both?
Speaker 2 (12:12):
I guess it could be.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
All them clever songwriters, they'll do stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
I gotta think if you're making love to the muffler
on a car, you're gonna burn something sensitive. And yet
there's freaks out there that'll do it. There's freaks out
there that do everything. I don't care for it.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Yeah, what's up with that?
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Why?
Speaker 2 (12:28):
It's freaks.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
I always feel like we're weird and unusual. And then
you see how weird and unusual people actually are. And
you realize, oh, you're not even close. You're kind of boring.
I mean, our community we're in, it's pretty ruckus. It's
pretty wild. But it ain't nothing compared to.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Watch out.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
Oh, Lord.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
Here comes the Florida man.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
The Florida man is Sports Jason, as I said. And
it is brought to you by Law Tigers. Now, the
Law Tigers folks are always doing good stuff for motorcycle riders,
but this is above and beyond, man. They got a
fine looking new bike they want to give away. It's
called the Flying Tigers bike. And it's a salute to
(13:09):
a general from Louisiana during World War II. And you
can go find out all about it. Look into it
at flyingtigersbike.com. And you come see us in Baton Rouge
next Saturday.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Man, that World War II, that was the best war
in my opinion.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
Oh, yeah. America's favorite still kicks ass, man. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
That's like the pepperoni pizza wars, you know?
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Sure.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
All right. Where are we going in Florida?
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Well, the swamp. You ever been?
Speaker 2 (13:36):
It's like the entire center of the state there, minus
the villages.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
No, no, the Florida football stadium known as the Swamp.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Oh, okay, yeah, it's a figure of speech. I got you.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
According to the initial report out of the police, no
members of the public was inside the stadium when an
incident occurred. This is a situation where a man decided
he would climb up to the top of the Swamp
To execute his suicide. I thought he was looking into
(14:08):
it now. A man reportedly jumped to his death at
Ben Hill Griffith Stadium. That's the official name of the swamp.
Named after a dude that made millions of dollars growing
oranges or something. And then gave a lot of that
money to the football team and the stadium and all that.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Is that right? How about that?
Speaker 1 (14:27):
51-year-old man climbed up to the top of the swamp.
In the interior, not outside. Inside the football stadium. Officers
attempted to talk him out of it. They believe he
was possibly homeless. No members of the public was there,
so nobody else got injured or anything like that. But
it's just kind of odd that he chose just a
(14:49):
day before the official announcement. The launch of the football season.
Although they have played some games in week zero. They
call it that for a reason. Week one is ready
to kick off now. And this dude decided, I guess
I'm just going to climb up to the stadium and
just leap. And now, of course, you don't just fall
(15:09):
all the way out into the field. Because you know
how it is. Staggered. He hit the concourse down below.
But still, that's far enough and hard enough. It killed
a man. It killed a man. A Florida man.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
That's not just any kind of man.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
It's a tragic event in the University of Florida and
the campus. And of course, the first home game, you know,
them people's all going to be fine. And then they'll
be thinking about this, where that dude died, man. That's
where he jumped from, right here by my seats.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Boy, I got to tell you.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
It's cold-blooded, man. There's so many stories like this, you
start to wonder, is the Florida man an endangered species?
You know, they just keep seem to more keep coming. Yeah,
but at the same time, they're so many incidents that
endanger them that people like us just never even have
to worry about. Another tragedy in the sports world, not
(16:00):
a Florida man, a middle school football player named Caden
died after he went into cardiac arrest during practice in Greensboro,
North Carolina. This happened last Friday. The story's just coming
out now. He was 13 years old, two days after
he had the incident Family called. They said made every
(16:22):
effort by his medical team to save his life. But,
you know, they had to report that, unfortunately, a 13-year-old
had a heart attack and died.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Boy, there didn't used to be a lot of 13-year-olds
having heart attacks.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
No, there really didn't. But over the last few years,
especially right around the time of the year where kids
get inoculated to go back to school, suddenly those things
happen again. You know what I bet it is? I bet.
It's that climate change. They warned us about it for years.
As a matter of fact, we were stupid enough to
ignore AOC when she told us almost eight years ago
(17:00):
now that we only had 12 years to live. Right.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
And then she froze her eggs for some reason.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
She said the world is coming to an end in
12 years. She compared this to our world. Of course,
World War II was our war, so I don't know
why she said this. I guess she meant her generations.
This is their World War II. Well, remember, she hates
the Jews. They lost that war. Well, yeah. They didn't
even try. Ocasio-Cortez, Democrat, New York, blah, blah, blah, said
(17:31):
this is the World War II because our life on
the planet will end in 12 years if we don't
do something now, today. And that was eight years ago.
So– If what she says is true, and I believe her,
of course, why would she lie? Why would she lie?
The world is going to end during her term as president.
(17:53):
Do the math. We got four years, and she's running
in two, and then she'll be president when the world ends, right? Wow. Well,
that's upsetting.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
That is upsetting.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
I bet you at the last minute, once she gets elected,
she'll start making enough changes- that she'll save us all.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Save us all?
Speaker 1 (18:16):
That's probably going to be her campaign. You know, it
was like, make America great again. You know, they hung
on to that for a while. How about elect me?
I'll save us all.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
From climate change.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Yeah. That's an existential threat, you know. We already know
how to stop climate change. You just got to get
rid of all the racists, right, James Tallarico? I'm so
thankful that you asked this question and also thankful that
young activists have really drawn the link between climate change,
and white supremacy and capitalism. Capitalism. So when my niece
sells lemonade in the park near my house, that's causing hurricanes?
(18:51):
That's right. Yes, that's right. And every time some racist
white dude throws out the N-word, the temperature goes up
just a little bit more. Ninja?
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Wow, I feel bad. I just caused the temperature to go.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
I felt it.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
Well, adjust the AC. We'll probably be fine, right?
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Small steps for man. One giant leap for mankind. That
looks beautiful from here, Neil. Walton and Johnson.
We got this letter from a guy in prison. He
sends us a lot of letters. Is it the same
guy every time?
Speaker 2 (00:05):
I think so.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
It's confusing because his name's Brian, but sometimes the letter
says it comes from Scott. I wonder if that's like
his prison boss or something. I don't know. Well, this
is what we call jail snail mail. Yeah, right. It's
the jail snail mail report.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
He wrote in a couple weeks ago, but we get it.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Yeah. And we were out of town for a while.
It says here, hey, guys, thank you for doing a
great show. I wanted to follow up on something. I
put two names in that letter I sent you. I
don't remember what the names were. He said one of
the inmates here told another inmate about the Walton and
Johnson show. That inmate said, I don't like that show.
(00:46):
I don't listen to the Walton and Johnson show because
they don't like sex offenders. Oh, well, yeah, that's a
good reason not to listen. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Brian, if that gentleman can hear us right now, I
want to talk to him for just a second.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Or just pass the word along next time you're out
in the yard. Sir, nobody likes sex offenders. That's not
a unique position for us. I think most people listening
to this radio show, especially the men, could probably think
of a situation where, although they probably don't want to,
they could hypothetically kill.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Billy, did you get what I'm saying?
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Boy, do I ever. Or you could hypothetically like steal
to feed your family or, you know, some crime you
wouldn't want to commit, but you could think of an
example of where you'd have to commit it if put
in a certain situation. Right. There's no circumstance where I
could think of a reason to rape or molest or,
you know what I mean? Like, what would that, you know,
(01:39):
what would the hypothetical thing be where, ah, commit a
sex crime or else?
Speaker 2 (01:43):
I don't know what that would be. Right.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Well, I'm sure sex crime offenders probably like sex crime.
But we frown on it here at the Walt and
Johnson Show, and we've always taken that stand.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
And there's no way that makes us unique. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I don't know anyone out there that would be like, well,
we're the radio show for sex offenders. Well, you know,
that one guy down the hall.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Okay, him, obviously. Well, he's a little sus as a kid, so.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Now, let's review real quick about this, how we're going
to make Mr. O do sports. No, no, no. It's
the Walton & Johnson Sports Report. We're not making you
do anything. That's what you said when we went to break.
I guess we're going to have to make you do sports.
That sounds a little bit massery.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
You know what I'm saying? It is your job.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Oh, yes, mass. Let me get them sports on for
you there, sir. I'm not saying that you have to
do it. I'm just saying if you don't do sports,
we'll withhold food and money. And probably take my kids
away from me or something, you know. Send my wife
off to work down at another radio station or somewhere.
I don't know what you might have in mind.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
You have a wife?
Speaker 1 (02:55):
No, I don't.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
But, you know, if I did, that's what you'd do. Okay.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
That's probably the reason I don't have one. All right.
Sports Report with Mr. O is brought to you by... Well, yeah,
I was wondering if you were going to get around
to that. Brought to you by MyPillow. Naturally, MyPillow has
a big sale going on right now. It seems like
they always do. And it is... It's fantastic. It is
really great. If you've been looking at some products and
you thought, well, I don't know, should I spend a
(03:18):
little money? You can also save money on the sale
items with a promo code WJ. WJ is always a
great idea.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Save the most money with promo code WJ.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
And Mike Lindell's back at the helm. He ain't running
for office no more, so he's in there every day
making sure everything is just right for you.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
He's making sure those pillows are still machine washable.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
A lot of the sports news I got is what
we call sports adjacent. Okay. And one of them is
actually a Florida man story. So I'm going to save
that one back for a little while. I will tell
you this. Tony Romo have pleaded no contest to that OWI.
What the hell? Operating while under the influence. Actually, it
(04:04):
should O-V-W-I because it's operating a V vehicle.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
We get it. Trunk DUI. Trunk truck. Got it.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
He got arrested back in July. I'm sure you remember
that little old tap dance, the song and dance routine
that he put on for him while he was stretching
and trying to be sweet and kind of flirty with
the police lady, but she wasn't playing. So that's done.
I guess they're going to look at that now. This
is going to, well, I'll just tell you how it is.
(04:32):
Colin Kaepernick is back in the news today. What? Isn't
this remarkable? The guy will be 39 years old this season.
And he says, even though he's been gone for over
a decade. It's been 10 years since this whole thing
started with the kneeling and the foolishment. He's well past
the point where any average quarterback probably would have retired
in their mid to early 30s. But he wants you
(04:54):
to believe the only thing keeping him out of the
NFL is the.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Fact that he got all political.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
It's racism, all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Didn't he quit his job, though?
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Yeah, he did. And then he wanted to know why
they didn't ask him back. Now, 10 years later, Cap
back in the news again because the football season is
about to start. And he says, you need to be
boycotting the NFL like he does now. He'll still watch
college football, but he boycotted the NFL. Now, just a coincidence,
I know, that just happened to come up. He got
(05:25):
a book to sell you. In about two weeks, his memoir.
That's what they call him. A story about his life
is coming out. And so he won't jump back in
the news. And, of course, the people in the news
are happy to help him with that. Well, because what
are we doing right now? I know.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
It's easy. You just promoted his book.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
But do you think any of our listeners are going
to go out there and spend $ 10? And I'm sure
it's going to cost more than that. If it was $ 1. 50,
I don't think our listeners would be throwing that down
for Colin Kaepernick's book unless they needed it to, you know,
balance a table leg or something. No, but because you're
criticizing it now, some other left-wing radio show could be like,
look at these right-wingers criticizing civil rights hero Colin Kaepernick
(06:06):
for his new book.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
And that's how it works.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
In baseball, the White Sox just rained down hell on
the Astros last night, 5-1. And that means the Astros
only have a one-game lead over the Texas Rangers because
the Rangers prevailed 8-5. Listen to that vocabulary. Yeah, I'm
studying that stuff.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
The pitching is fried right now.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Carlos Correa cleared up to ramp baseball work in Florida.
Still hurdles. Mike Burrows returned delayed. Shoulder inflammation. A lot
to be said there about the Astros. They're in a
rough position right now. Still in the lead in their division,
but boy... A lot of injuries on the team. One-game lead. Now,
Atlanta's lead two weeks ago, there was about seven, eight games.
(06:49):
Now Atlanta's lead three games because the Braves lost last night.
They just lost? No fancy wording? The Braves, didn't they
have a seven-game win streak? Well, yeah. They just got snapped.
The closer you get to the end of the season,
the more this thing is going to be tightening up. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Georgia Tech opens September 3rd versus Colorado. That's something to
take a look at.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Yeah, it ain't football time yet, but tomorrow. Yeah. Yeah,
we're going to start that in the NFL next week.
And we still have that Florida man story to tell
you about there. So that's coming up.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Billie Jean.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Do you remember Billie Jean King? She's not my lover.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
No, no, no. That's a different bill.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Are you thinking about PYT? The Pretty Young Thing? No, no.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
I'm talking about the tennis player.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
I don't believe this has nothing to do with Michael Jackson.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
No, it doesn't.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
It has to do with tennis, if I'm not mistaken.
Are you all familiar with, is tennis still a thing?
Do people still care about this? Matter of fact, it
looks as though they are still playing that old run-down
pitiful tournament of Grand Slam fame called the U.S. Open.
Women's sports has a weird problem right now. Billie Jean
King has been yelling, hey, pay attention to women's sports
(08:02):
since Nixon was in office. And now people are finally
paying attention to it. But with one asterisk, one little
caveat attached, they said, shouldn't we let men play with women?
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Finally.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
What does she say? She has spent a lifetime selling
the idea women's sports were worth the money. Title IX
is 50-plus years old. The world finally knows the receipts.
And now, with all that taking place, women's sports, well,
it didn't get popular until suddenly the rise of the
trans movement.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Do you think that's a coincidence? Just bad timing?
Speaker 1 (08:34):
And what's weird is one of their... things that made
her most famous is she played against a man in
the Astrodome in a female versus male tennis extravaganza. Now,
she was still young and played pretty good, and the
guy she was playing was way older. But still, it
was controversial, attention-getting, and all of that was on purpose.
(08:56):
But she was trying to say that... There was a
difference between men and women, and yet women were just
as good. And wasn't that event, if I'm not mistaken,
sponsored by Virginia Slims and tampon? Boy, it was a
different time back then, wasn't it? Anyway, so Billie Jean
King at the third annual Power of Women's Sports Summit
(09:18):
in New York said, presented by Elf Cosmetics.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
I don't know why that's in the report.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
A room full of different women, athletes there. And she
starts talking about how men's sports are in the trillions.
Women's sports are at about $ 3 billion revenue. If you're
in business, that gap looks like a goldmine, not a
charity case. Nobody cared before. Suddenly, weirdly, women's sports, women's basketball,
women's softball, this stuff is actually starting to matter. It's
(09:44):
more important than ever now to stop guys from playing
in the games. Oh, hell yeah. You put a man
in my lady's softball, you know, Oklahoma Sooner fan, but
I like all the games and it's fun to watch them.
Aggies got a good team. Longhorns... A bunch of good teams. Arkansas, Tennessee.
(10:07):
I'm looking forward to Fall Ball, which is coming up
in about a month. But, yeah, they don't want no
men in there. Now, I know for sports betting purposes,
it would obviously be better for us to have trans
in there because then you know who to bet on.
It's very easy. It's also better for sports in general
if you allow them to have the steroids and all
of the enhancing. Because, like you said, we could just
(10:29):
go off the charts with this thing, and they could
turn into men. muscle-bound freaks. I get what you're saying,
but that's besides the point. I'm still getting behind Billie
Jean King on this thing. Uh-oh. She doesn't want that. No, no, no.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
I mean, figuratively speaking, not literally.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
I actually support her in her cause, but as a
token misogynist, I just want to say, you know, maybe
we could just... Have a conversation here about women's sports
just a little bit. Most right-wing men, such as myself,
will support you on this, Billie Jean King, if you'll
just consider one of our requests. What is your request,
young man? I would like a little bit of say
(11:05):
on the uniforms women are wearing when they compete in
these sports. Oh, you would? Like... Hooters girls? Well, they
could save a lot of money on fabric and get
more viewership at the same time.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Think about that. Jeez. All I'm saying is.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
And now, everything you're saying has just become useless. Would
a little bit of cleavage kill you? Women spend more
time looking at sexy women on Instagram than I do.
Put the women in an outfit I want to see
them in, and I'll watch the game. I will say, now,
cleavage doesn't come into play in women's softball, but them...
(11:40):
Them tight pants? That's not why I watch the game,
but it don't hurt.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
All right, have you.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Seen the new tight pants that women are wearing when
they jog around the park now, where for some reason
the fabric goes into every crevice and curve? Oh, yeah.
It's like they cinched a saddle up a long ways.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Tell me that that wouldn't improve the softball uniforms. It
would not. That is all I'm saying. But this whole
place sucks. That's right, it sucks.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Walton and Johnson.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
I was wondering, is this a song about a car
or a woman?
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Couldn't it be both?
Speaker 2 (12:12):
I guess it could be.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
All them clever songwriters, they'll do stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
I gotta think if you're making love to the muffler
on a car, you're gonna burn something sensitive. And yet
there's freaks out there that'll do it. There's freaks out
there that do everything. I don't care for it.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Yeah, what's up with that?
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Why?
Speaker 2 (12:28):
It's freaks.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
I always feel like we're weird and unusual. And then
you see how weird and unusual people actually are. And
you realize, oh, you're not even close. You're kind of boring.
I mean, our community we're in, it's pretty ruckus. It's
pretty wild. But it ain't nothing compared to.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Watch out.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
Oh, Lord.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
Here comes the Florida man.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
The Florida man is Sports Jason, as I said. And
it is brought to you by Law Tigers. Now, the
Law Tigers folks are always doing good stuff for motorcycle riders,
but this is above and beyond, man. They got a
fine looking new bike they want to give away. It's
called the Flying Tigers bike. And it's a salute to
(13:09):
a general from Louisiana during World War II. And you
can go find out all about it. Look into it
at flyingtigersbike.com. And you come see us in Baton Rouge
next Saturday.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Man, that World War II, that was the best war
in my opinion.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
Oh, yeah. America's favorite still kicks ass, man. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
That's like the pepperoni pizza wars, you know?
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Sure.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
All right. Where are we going in Florida?
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Well, the swamp. You ever been?
Speaker 2 (13:36):
It's like the entire center of the state there, minus
the villages.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
No, no, the Florida football stadium known as the Swamp.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Oh, okay, yeah, it's a figure of speech. I got you.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
According to the initial report out of the police, no
members of the public was inside the stadium when an
incident occurred. This is a situation where a man decided
he would climb up to the top of the Swamp
To execute his suicide. I thought he was looking into
(14:08):
it now. A man reportedly jumped to his death at
Ben Hill Griffith Stadium. That's the official name of the swamp.
Named after a dude that made millions of dollars growing
oranges or something. And then gave a lot of that
money to the football team and the stadium and all that.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Is that right? How about that?
Speaker 1 (14:27):
51-year-old man climbed up to the top of the swamp.
In the interior, not outside. Inside the football stadium. Officers
attempted to talk him out of it. They believe he
was possibly homeless. No members of the public was there,
so nobody else got injured or anything like that. But
it's just kind of odd that he chose just a
(14:49):
day before the official announcement. The launch of the football season.
Although they have played some games in week zero. They
call it that for a reason. Week one is ready
to kick off now. And this dude decided, I guess
I'm just going to climb up to the stadium and
just leap. And now, of course, you don't just fall
(15:09):
all the way out into the field. Because you know
how it is. Staggered. He hit the concourse down below.
But still, that's far enough and hard enough. It killed
a man. It killed a man. A Florida man.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
That's not just any kind of man.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
It's a tragic event in the University of Florida and
the campus. And of course, the first home game, you know,
them people's all going to be fine. And then they'll
be thinking about this, where that dude died, man. That's
where he jumped from, right here by my seats.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Boy, I got to tell you.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
It's cold-blooded, man. There's so many stories like this, you
start to wonder, is the Florida man an endangered species?
You know, they just keep seem to more keep coming. Yeah,
but at the same time, they're so many incidents that
endanger them that people like us just never even have
to worry about. Another tragedy in the sports world, not
(16:00):
a Florida man, a middle school football player named Caden
died after he went into cardiac arrest during practice in Greensboro,
North Carolina. This happened last Friday. The story's just coming
out now. He was 13 years old, two days after
he had the incident Family called. They said made every
(16:22):
effort by his medical team to save his life. But,
you know, they had to report that, unfortunately, a 13-year-old
had a heart attack and died.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Boy, there didn't used to be a lot of 13-year-olds
having heart attacks.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
No, there really didn't. But over the last few years,
especially right around the time of the year where kids
get inoculated to go back to school, suddenly those things
happen again. You know what I bet it is? I bet.
It's that climate change. They warned us about it for years.
As a matter of fact, we were stupid enough to
ignore AOC when she told us almost eight years ago
(17:00):
now that we only had 12 years to live. Right.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
And then she froze her eggs for some reason.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
She said the world is coming to an end in
12 years. She compared this to our world. Of course,
World War II was our war, so I don't know
why she said this. I guess she meant her generations.
This is their World War II. Well, remember, she hates
the Jews. They lost that war. Well, yeah. They didn't
even try. Ocasio-Cortez, Democrat, New York, blah, blah, blah, said
(17:31):
this is the World War II because our life on
the planet will end in 12 years if we don't
do something now, today. And that was eight years ago.
So– If what she says is true, and I believe her,
of course, why would she lie? Why would she lie?
The world is going to end during her term as president.
(17:53):
Do the math. We got four years, and she's running
in two, and then she'll be president when the world ends, right? Wow. Well,
that's upsetting.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
That is upsetting.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
I bet you at the last minute, once she gets elected,
she'll start making enough changes- that she'll save us all.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
Save us all?
Speaker 1 (18:16):
That's probably going to be her campaign. You know, it
was like, make America great again. You know, they hung
on to that for a while. How about elect me?
I'll save us all.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
From climate change.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Yeah. That's an existential threat, you know. We already know
how to stop climate change. You just got to get
rid of all the racists, right, James Tallarico? I'm so
thankful that you asked this question and also thankful that
young activists have really drawn the link between climate change,
and white supremacy and capitalism. Capitalism. So when my niece
sells lemonade in the park near my house, that's causing hurricanes?
(18:51):
That's right. Yes, that's right. And every time some racist
white dude throws out the N-word, the temperature goes up
just a little bit more. Ninja?
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Wow, I feel bad. I just caused the temperature to go.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
I felt it.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
Well, adjust the AC. We'll probably be fine, right?
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Small steps for man. One giant leap for mankind. That
looks beautiful from here, Neil. Walton and Johnson.
