Speaker 1 (00:24):
Let's give it to who's next time. I eight wars
settled globally in less than ten months. Nah, that's not
that good. So all right, let's talk about what this
wonderful woman has done.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Yeah, she is an opposition leader in Venezuela working to
bring democracy back to Venezuela capitalism as well. By the way,
she was nominated by Marco Rubio for the prize this year.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Oh there you go. Well, I'm sure she's doing great
work there. And guy, don't mean to be you know,
kind of you know you well, look, I thought for
sure this was a shoe in for Donald Trump. Are
you kidding me?
Speaker 3 (01:00):
I thought he was a little thirsty, you know, I
thought he was a little too too.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Eager, too easy. You got to sort of slow. Yeah,
you got a slow roll. You got you know, play
hard to get a little bit. He was trying. I
thought it was too aggressive trying to get it.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
And he can still get it, not like the oscars
where you have to keep doing something every year. Uh.
You know, we've seen past presidents get it after they left.
Jimmy Carter was long gone from office, but when he
got his. Al Gore was out of office when he
got his. And then that big begs the question, why
does he so eager to join the ranks of Jimmy Carter,
al Gore and Barack Obama and Woodrow Wilson.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Well, I get it, Edie. I mean, you're you're right.
You don't have to get it, you know the year
that you do everything so well. But yeah, it's just
the pushback on Donald Trump. And I get his personality
a lot of people. You know, he rubs people the
wrong way. He's a bold as china shop. I get it.
But at the end of the day, Uh, you got
to give him credit for the things that he's done here.
(01:57):
I mean the guy is getting stuff done. This is
a getter term for Donald Trump. He didn't come in
here thinking, okay, let me just get the lay of
the land, figure out how to you know, work here
in d C and get things done. No, I've already
been here four years. I know what's going on up here.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
So let's go.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
I mean he had his sleeves rolled up I think
inauguration day as he was getting ready to get to
work here.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
So oh, on November seventh, yet sleeves rolled up? Are
you kidding? Right? Yeah? Exactly? So well.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
I mean, seriously, Venezuela, a good move there, Democracy, who's
back there? I still think they're a country that's torn.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
And if there's a class in socialism not working, maybe
these kids and these young people that are wanted to
be socialists, how to take a little little course on
what's going on in Venezuela's so well, congratulations to her.
Now serious business, it's a it's a big deal. Do
you know where Nobel Peace price.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Comes from from? Sir Alfred Nobel, The Adventure of TNT.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
There you go, look look at you on your game
this morning?
Speaker 2 (02:53):
So hey, you think I don't get ready for you
to come to talk to you.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
So, yeah, invented dynamite and it was so destructive. He says,
I got to go the other direction here in I
got to be a nice guy. I don't want people
remembering me as a guy that likes to blow things up.
So I want peace, So we'll go completely.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
And yeah, there's also chemistry, and I think there's sort
of an economics prize and the literature prize this week.
So every day this week we've been getting a different
kind of prize. The big one though today with the
Peace prize.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
All right, Well, we also have a big game coming up,
the super Bowl this year, and so much controversy on
Bad Bunny being the halftime entertainment. This guy's an international superstar.
He's from Puerto Rico, doesn't sing any songs in English,
puts dresses on, doesn't have problem with wearing a dress.
He says, yeah, I'm kind of fluid. I just got
to go where I like to go sometimes.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Go ahead, David Bowie esque, Yes, good, exactly.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
So being a international superstar that doesn't really get a
lot of airplay in top forty in the United States
because well, his songs are not in English, and he
won't do him, and he apparently he doesn't want to
have concerts here because he thinks I will show up
and grab all his face. So there's been some controversy,
and Turning Point USA has just said, I guess all right,
we'll do We'll put together our own halftime show. What's
(04:08):
going on here?
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yeah, there are absolutely no details I can tell you
because they don't know either. I think this really started
on the internet as something that said, you know, Turning
Point should stage their own halftime show.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
And now there are they're doing it.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
We don't know what if it's going to be on
a channel, if it's something you have to stream, and
they're actually have a website for it now for the
All American halftime show, and they're soliciting advice. What would
you like to see country, hip hop, rock, or quote
anything in English unquote?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
How about a little bit of both. What if you
brought it in a top four yards, you brought it
in an urban artist, and you brought in a country guy,
and you shared the stage and you did some different things.
I mean what Lee Greenwood right?
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Yeah, Well the house speaker floated Lee Greenwood is an
idea and Lee Greenwood responded, saying he thinks he would
be great for the halftime show. But look, they've done
those mashes mashups before. Remember years ago in Tampa, the
halftime show was Aerosmith in Sync and Britney Spears.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
It was awful.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Yeah, I know, I'm still with Prince being the best
one ever.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
I mean, come on, you two yes, at the pavements
in New Orleans.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
There's a lot of them out there that you know
would have been good for the Yeah, I'm with you. Well,
it'll give everybody time to go get some more chicken
wings and you know, load.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Up the plate.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
By the way, Shakira, Shakira sang in Spanish when she
performed her halftime show, but I don't remember people being as.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Upset by that. No shaking hips look actually bad Bunny,
Bad Bunny was with her when they performed at the
halftime show.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Well, Shakira's hips don't lie, so I mean exactly right. Okay,
