Speaker 1 (00:00):
I'm Gole Henry Show weekday afternoons from five till seven.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
To quote mister Rogers, it's a beautiful day in the neighborhood,
a wonderful day in the neighborhood. Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?
Speaker 3 (01:08):
It says The Uncle Henry Show here on news Radio
seventy ten WNTM. Thank you. I appreciate very very much
you listening to the Uncle Henry Show. Yes, I'm still here. Yes,
despite your expectations, I'm still employed here and once again
(01:32):
here we are together, me and you trying to figure
out what is going on in the world around us.
What is going on in the world around us. We'll
try and figure it out together. Telephone number two five
one four seven nine two seven two three. That's two
five one four seven nine two seven two three. Email
address Uncle Henry at iHeartMedia dot com. So many things
(01:53):
to get to at just about every level to talk
about here on the Uncle Henry Show. I got a
lot of news items out there that I've got opinions on,
of course, and you might too. Also some things I
don't even know what to think about. Y'all. Got one
of them stories coming up. I'm gonna try to get
to today. I don't I don't really know what to
think about one of these stories. So anywall bring all
(02:14):
of this forward to you and would love to hear
from you. Theoretically again that number two five one four
seven nine two seven two three or two five one
four seventy nine two seven two three. Now, before I
launch into different stories and things that I have thoughts
on or questions about, we do have a living caller.
I believe I think there's a caller on the line,
(02:36):
or maybe a telephone solicitor. Let's find out.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Hello caller, good antil uncle Henry Bert, Bert, you are
live on the radio.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Now what is that? Is that your keyboard?
Speaker 4 (02:57):
That's my new keyboard or new to me? Any very
very good. They'll be nostalgia for your listeners in your
old FA song.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Well look, Bert, anytime you want to call and just
play us something feel free. We could all we could
all use a little good music in our lives.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
That will happen very frequently, now that I've got the
instance to do it with.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Bert, let me ask you this, and I know you
probably have other things to tell us, but let me
just ask you this as a as a musician, yourself,
a man who has been in numerous bands and played
in front of crowds. I believe that music is very
similar to a drug. That music, it affects our emotions,
(03:43):
it regulates emotions. I think it is very powerful like
a drug. Do you agree with that?
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Well, you know something as a drug when you get
withdrawal symptoms. You know coffee is a drug because you
get coffee headaches, right, You know for a drug because
you get massive withdrawal symptoms. One of my ex girlfriends
smoke coool packs a day and I was with her
when she tried to quit twice. And I can't imagine
(04:10):
somebody time to get off something like there wouldn't be
any worse.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Now, have you ever had have you ever had music withdrawal?
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Well, that's what I was saying. When there's no music
for a long time, I got to turn my radio one.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Yes, yes, I agree. You know this is the time
of year that I start really having a strong withdrawal
symptom from hearing gene Autry. I'm really my body is
looking forward to gene Autry music in December when we
can hear it. Roodolph and up on the housetop and
here comes Santa Claus. Yeah, so yes, yes, I've had
(04:47):
music withdrawal too.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
So that's when you know something is a drug when
you have withdrawal symptoms, Uncle Henry, I would like to
make a comparison between what Trump is doing right now
and what Eisenhower and Kennedy did back during the Civil
rights era. Back in those days, in the fifties and sixties,
the clan could victimize people and the police would either
(05:13):
turn a blind eye or even cooperate. Right that there
was a sheriff's deputy who cooperated in the murder of
the three civil rights workers in Philadelphia, Mississippi. Yeah, and son,
Eisenhower and Kennedy had to send in troops to protect
the people because the police weren't doing their job or
(05:34):
they were sympathizing with the fogs. Well, that's what's happening
in these group cities right now, Henry. The police are
either corrupt and on the tape, or they're afraid to
take on the games, so the gangs can run wild
victimize people while police turn a blind eye. That's why
Trump descending federal troops into the blue cities for the
(05:56):
same reason that Eisenhower and Kennedy sent federal troops into
the Southern States.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Well, you know, there's you You've given that example. If
they're if they're also sending in troops or National Guard
because of ICE agents being obstructed from doing their job,
that's that is a that is a very strong parallel.
They're trying to enforce federal immigration law, and you have
other people in there trying to stop them from enforcing
(06:24):
federal law. Yeah, you said you send in who you
have to send in?
Speaker 4 (06:29):
The police are under orders for Democrat majors to stand
by while ICE agents from being attacked. That's just along
the short of it. Just like they were ordered to
stand down and do nothing during the George Floyd life.
Speaker 5 (06:43):
Sometime.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
And I'm amazed Trump didn't send them enough troops to
take care of that. That he just let the whole
summer burn down cities. It's not going to happen in
his second term. I know he has a more of
a mandate now.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Well, yes, and he and lessons learned from the first time.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Exactly. Thanks taking a.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Call, Bert, Thank you, and feel free to call back
in with some music anytime it'll happen. Hey, will you
play some more before you hang up.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
Just just just.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Just play what you played when when you when I
first answered the phone, Hang off, Bert? Thank you? All right?
(07:39):
There he goes Bert. What well, isn't it wonderful that
he would share his gifts with us? You and me?
Here we are, we're going through life trying to figure
out all these things, and he's sharing his talents with us.
What a wonder Bert, Thank you for that? What a
great what a you know? I wish I wish the
Uncle Hender Show had a budget. If we did, of
course I would be driving im a nicer car. But
(08:01):
then after that I would have a call screener, And
then after that then I would look to maybe hire
Burt to be in here just to have him play.
Just why not have the bumper music come from him
instead of me playing something that wouldn't it be wonderful?
But again, that's almost like fantasizing about winning the lottery.
(08:21):
So I'm going to stop doing that instead move forward
here in the reality in which we're all living, and
that is today's Uncle Henry Show. Got a lot of
things to get into. I'm gonna be getting into him
as the show proceeds forward in the time stream. First
(08:42):
will take a break for a traffic report, a weather report,
words from our lovely sponsors, and then more Uncle Henry's
Show after the break, Uncle Henry Show. That's me. I'm
(09:14):
me Uncle Henry. I'm the host. In case you're confus,
I don't want you to be confused. I'm Uncle Henry.
I'm me, you're you, you're the listener. All right, I
think we're I think we got it now. News headlines
are coming up in ten minutes from Fox ten and
for Fox Radio National News. Telephone number if you'd like
(09:38):
to call in and tell me something two five one
four seven nine two seven two three. That's two five
one four seven nine two seven two three email address
Uncle Henry at iHeartMedia dot com. Now, let's see, there's
so many things to get to. There's a story that
I don't understand that I need to bring up at
(09:58):
some point in this hour. There's also other stories that
I have some opinions on all of that to come
and any and who knows, I may, I don't know.
You never know what could happen at my age. You
never know. Want my pop out of my head and
out of my mouth, including my dental work again. Two
(10:20):
five one foe before. I oh, and I did have
a caller, but I've lost the caller. So instead of
going to the caller, let me let me share with
you a brief opinion. And I've already shared this opinion
in the past. But we had the the former director
of the FBI, James Comey, in court today. He pleaded
(10:46):
not guilty to charges of allegedly making false statements and
obstruction of a congressional hearing. Uh. Here is Fox News
reporter Alexandria Hoff with just some of the basics on
what happened today.
Speaker 6 (11:01):
This was the expected outcome that he would be pleading
not guilty to these charges that a grand jury handed
down to him in a two count indictment late last month.
Today he was arraigned before a judge who was a
Biden appointe, Michael Knockmanoff. He was clearer today that this
courtroom operates quickly. It's really what it's known for. So
those charges, as they're officially stated, they are a false
(11:21):
statement within the jurisdiction of the legislative branch of the
US government. Obstruction of a congressional preceding these charges largely
stem from Comy testifying in a twenty twenty Sentate Judiciary
hearing when he was asked if he had authorized someone
at the FBI to be an anonymous source to leak
info to the media. The government is alleging here he
had lied about.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
That, all right, and they and the Trump administration has
released some documents that seemed to they the documents seem
to indicate that he was lying. Now it's been this
is I don't know how closely you're following this, maybe
closer than I am. But the all of the Department
(12:01):
of Justice people up there, they did not want to
do this. They a lot of them still loyaled it
too well Lloyd not necessarily loyal to Trump or maybe
even the country. But they didn't want to bring this.
They had to bring in an outside attorney to come
in and make sure that they actually filed the charges
(12:23):
before the statute of limitations ran out. Now, somebody walked
in there, an attorney came in that wasn't working there,
and got indictments. Just walked in, got the indictments rather quickly.
(12:44):
The other people working there, and they didn't want to
do it, And they waited and they waited, and they
waited and they waited. Somebody came in with no background
on it and was able to get the indictments. Now
this is going this is going to go to a
jury Alexandria, Virginia, very very similar to a Washington, d c.
(13:08):
Jury pool would be the Alexandria, Virginia jury pool. So
the idea that he's going to be convicted, even though
it looks like they got him based on the documents,
absolutely no guarantee that he will be convicted of this.
So don't get your hopes. I'm just trying to tell you,
don't get your hopes of it if you think he lied,
and if you think he was bad, if you think
(13:31):
he's been bad, you know, spelling out messages with seashells
on a beach to attack Trump and posting them up
on Instagram or whatever he's doing. If you think, just
don't get your hopes up that anything will come of
this other than he will have to hire lawyers and
spend a bunch of money defending himself. All I'm hoping
(13:52):
for is that there will be lots of high profile
witnesses going in put under oath, having to testify about
all all the shenanigans that it looks like he was
up to. So maybe we'll maybe we'll get what really happened.
I don't know that we'll get a conviction, but at
least we'll have a better picture of what was going
on there. It looked like there was a lot of
(14:15):
a lot of mouthfeasance, a lot of shenanigans, and a
lot of line going on from a variety of people
that he was involved with, mister comy. But again, don't
get your hopes of two five one or seven nine
three the telephone number. Hello Color, Hey, hey you are
live on the radio.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Hey, I'm like Burt, I play music.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Oh really, what what musical instrument do you play?
Speaker 4 (14:43):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Melayed but trumpet?
Speaker 6 (14:45):
What?
Speaker 3 (14:45):
Just stuff? At that sound? You know, you have people people,
A lot of people are tuning in after they get
off work. They don't want to hear some adolescent freak
call on the show. Somebody. That caller sounded like some
I hate I hate to do this. I have to.
I hate to audio profile and I know that you
(15:07):
the listener, you may find that audio profiling is hurt falling, discriminatory,
but I have to. I'm sorry. I've done this job
for so many years. I can kind of tell that
sounded like somebody. It sounded like a male, at least
for now, a male who's in their their late thirties
(15:30):
early forties. They probably they don't have a girlfriend. Of course,
I don't know about any other anything. I don't want
to speculate on anything else. But it doesn't have a girlfriend,
because nobody that makes a call like that about making
a flatching some type of flatulence music that is not
(15:51):
someone that a woman would ever want to be involved with.
They wouldn't. So it's a single male or at least
mail for now. Person late thirties early forties, had high
hopes as a child, but they've gotten into a dead
end job. They're very bitter about that. They're probably don't
(16:18):
have much furniture. I'm imagining low income housing with not
much good furniture. Maybe was making that phone call while
sitting on an old milk crate or some other type
of box there's been repurposed as a furnishing item. And
(16:40):
after making this prank call, they're going they're going to
be going on Reddit or some other internet chatboard where
other weirdos congregate, and this person is going to be
drinking CBD sodas of some kind along with the miniatures
of Smirnoff vodka, and they are they're hoping that they
(17:05):
can bum marijuana off a friend so they can celebrate
their prank call. That's what I determined. That's my audio
profiling of this, That's what I think. And they're thinking
up their next Algonquin round table style insult that they
could throw into the show at a future call. There
(17:30):
is more to come. I could repeat the first half
hour of this show, but I'm not going to. I'm
going to continue with the Uncle Henry Show after the
news break here on News Radio seventy ten. The Uncle

Email address Uncle Henry iHeartMedia dot com. That's Uncle Henry,
iHeartMedia dot com. So there's a there's a story that
I saw earlier this week, and I'm really trying to
(19:21):
understand exactly what is causing this. Now. The premise of
this story from Fox News is that there is a
rising trend in the United States of America. Now you've
heard of you've heard of stay at home moms that
stay at home and raised their children, and you've heard
(19:43):
of stay at home dads that they'll stay at home
and raise the kids while the mom goes and earns
the money. In fact, I met a stay at home
dad I don't know about eight years ago who explained
to me he and his wife both had college degrees,
they had three kids, and they did the math, and
(20:04):
they figured that they would actually save money if he
stayed home, because it would cost so much money to
put the kids and have somebody watch them professionally. Anyway,
I've I've met stay at home dads and stay at
home moms. Well, now there's a new trend, according to
Fox News, of stay at home sons. Stay at home sons.
(20:31):
Now this is a story. I don't understand this. Here
is a reporter, Madison Allworth of Fox Business, to briefly
explain this.
Speaker 7 (20:40):
Essentially, it's men in their twenties and thirties that are
often to stay home with their parents.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Got men in their twenties and thirties staying home with
their parents.
Speaker 7 (20:49):
Good old mom and dad, and to not work.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
So they're not getting a job, They're not living there
and working. It's stay at home sons in their twenties
and thirties.
Speaker 7 (21:04):
Essentially, it's men in their twenties and thirties that are
often to stay home with their parents, with good old
mom and dad and to not work. So they're saying
no thanks to a career, and instead they're doing things
around the home like grocery shopping, cooking dinner, fixing things
around the house. It's a trend that a lot of
moms like because they love to have their kids around.
But not everyone that stays home is a stay at
(21:26):
home son. But there are a lot of adults living
at home. According to the US Census, one in three
adults between the ages of eighteen and thirty four live
with their moms and dads.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
All right, so one in three. Now, this is what
I want to know. Is this because of the economy?
Is it because that it's that much more difficult now
than it used to be to be able to afford
to live on your own. You know, we had years
during the Biden years of runaway inflation where your dollar
(21:57):
just doesn't buy what it used to buy. Yeah, and
that's food, that's everything. So is that Why is it
the economy that's causing stay at home sons or is
it something different psychologically about modern young men. Has the
(22:22):
culture changed in some way to create this? Now you
heard that reporter say moms like it. Okay, but that's fine.
But I'm confused that the stay at home son would
like it, because based on the culture I grew up in,
(22:45):
I really wanted to get out of the house, and
it wasn't because I had great parents. My parents were
very nice people, law abiding. They weren't partiers. I wanted
to leave because I wanted to live the way I
(23:05):
wanted to live. I didn't want to have I had rule.
There were rules in the house because my parents were
civilized human beings. They had rules. They had rules for
growing up. And you weren't going to be able to
do this in the house. You weren't going to be
able to do that in the house. I wanted to
have my own house with my own rules. Are modern
(23:30):
families different now where that ain't no rules? Because that's
all I that's all my mind goes to, is either
they can't afford it, or it's so great at home?
Why would I want to leave and do whatever I want?
I mean, it is that? What is it? Two five
(23:53):
one four seven nine two seven two three The telephone
number to call on the Uncle Eber Show.
Speaker 5 (23:58):
Hello, Color, Hey, Jimmy the economist.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Jimmy, you are live on the radio.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
I hear you talking about economics. I certainly had to
call in and give one more statistic that didn't mention
that I saw today. Okay, thirty eight percent of US
mails under thirty have a full time job.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
So only thirty eight percent, that's correct. Now, see that's
a scary statistic.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
Yeah, I guess they're pulling double duty for time in
order to come up with twenty percent to buy a home.
What's the chiefest home around here these days?
Speaker 3 (24:44):
I don't know. Yeah, I mean it's it's been amazing.
It's been amazing the way that Holmes have appreciated you.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
Let's just say one to fifty. They got to come
up with thirty in a traditional eighty twenty format. Who
which you know, anybody under the age of thirty just
sitting around with thirty thousand dollars sitting in the.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
Bank, very very, very few.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
And then you add on top of that that only
thirty eight percent of them have a full time job.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (25:19):
Yeah, I think they're so addicted to their phones and
to automation they forgot to realize that actual hard labor
creates income just as much as staring at that stupid
freaking phone.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
Have a good day, Thank you, Jimmy. I appreciate your
phone call. With that stat, thirty eight percent of males
under thirty have a full time job, only thirty eight percent.
And I wonder about this because I'm hearing more and
more about the house, how difficult it is for people
in that age group to achieve what their parents were
(25:54):
able to achieve when they were that age. What is
this going to do to the politics of people that
are in their twenties? What are they? Are they gen Z?
What is this going to do to gen z politics?
Are they going to be? Are they going to be
more conservative in hoping that there can be policies to
(26:16):
fix this, or are they going to be more left
wing commie try and just redistribute the wealth. Upset that
they see their grandparents sitting in a nice, big house,
that they look at the math and figure out that
they're not going to be able to afford to get
to that spot even when their grandparents. I don't know,
(26:40):
but all the politicians, all the really smart political people,
might need to be thinking about, what are you going
to do? Come up with some policies to make the
American dream a little more achievable for people under the
aidge of thirty, at least as achievable as it used
(27:03):
to be thirty years ago or forty years ago. Because
I think we're going to be getting some ticked off,
a ticked off generation that is going to be ready
to grab the wheel and they're going to be pulling
that wheel hard in one direction. Better make sure it's
(27:27):
a direction you feel good about. There is more to come.
Neil Glanders Show continues after the news. Well, this is
a commercials trafficking weather for you, and then right back.
Speaker 8 (27:41):
Out down Hold down, Hold down, dow down.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
Hold Uncle Henry's Show. It is five fifty news headlines
coming up in ten minutes here on the Uncle Henry Show.
Telephone number two five one four seven nine two seven
(28:18):
two three. Hello Coller, Hello, Welcole, Yes, sir, how you
doing tonight? I'm doing fine? Thank you good?
Speaker 9 (28:32):
Got two or three quick comments? Okay, First, I got
a good name for the new hockey team, A new A.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
Good name for the the good name for the new
hockey team. So what would that be?
Speaker 9 (28:46):
Well, instead of the Mobile Mystics of Time, it'll be
called the Mobile Mystics of Wasted Time.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Okay, all right, the Mobile Mystics of Wasted Time.
Speaker 9 (28:56):
Uh. Next, have you ever met nice with Steve?
Speaker 3 (29:01):
Yes? I have I met. I met him a couple
of times. In fact, I met him years ago, first
time out at the flea market.
Speaker 9 (29:10):
Cool, right, that's when when when you hear us, like
a lot of your callers, when you hear callers, you
envision what they probably might look like, and hundred percent
of the time they looked totally different. And uh, Steve's
one of them, mate. He looks like the doppelganger of
Heisenberg from Breaking Bad?
Speaker 5 (29:29):
Do you agree?
Speaker 3 (29:30):
I you know, you'll be disappointed to know that I
did not watch Breaking Bad due to its drug themes.
Speaker 9 (29:36):
Well, you do know what Hausenburg looks like, at least
with the bald head and the gotee.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
Oh yeah, okay, Oh the main actor. Okay, yeah, the
main guy, the guy that was cooking up the math.
Speaker 5 (29:45):
Yeah, yeah, I started.
Speaker 9 (29:48):
I watched a few of Steve's YouTube videos, which I enjoy.
He's he's definitely a knife. Uh spin gully if you will,
And yeah, he looks totally I was picture of being
kind of an overbeast kind of guy and all that
kind of stuff, and now he's a fit, a fit
guy and he looks exactly like Heisenberg from Breaking Bad.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (30:11):
The third comment, after listening to Snake Trapper Talk hit
for his comments. Over all the years, I think I
finally figured out that I live directly across the lake
from him. No, Jack, Wow, I live in Summer Lake Subdivision.
I won't tell you any more than that. And there's
(30:31):
a lakes and last I know is a while back
he said that his neighbor feeds the geese large amounts
of bread whatnot. And sure enough, there's a guy that
right across the lake does that. And and I just
kind of have an idea. I'm thinking that he lives
(30:54):
in that neighborhood across the street over off of Snow Road.
So it's kind of funny. I think I've narrowed it down,
and I'm pretty sure he was right across from lake.
Have given us a shout out to stake Trapper that
next time he's in his backyard to look across the
lake and look for probably one of the only houses
(31:14):
that has a swimming pool. And that's my house there
in the Lake sub division.
Speaker 3 (31:19):
So all right, small world, yes sir, yes sir.
Speaker 9 (31:26):
But uh, that's about it. I just want to shoot
those three comments real quick at you.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
All right, I thought, I really appreciate you listening. I
appreciate you calling.
Speaker 9 (31:34):
Yes, sir, I'll talk to you later.
Speaker 5 (31:36):
Man.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
All right, there, he goes, Thank you, sir for your
phone call. Now you've got to you live out there
near a lake or on a lake with a swimming pool,
so you should think about hosting and Uncle Henry's show gathering.
Maybe we could come out to your pool. We'll bring
the food. You just have to make sure that your
(31:58):
insurance will cover any possible property damage, any liability, any
of us falling, slipping and hurting ourselves around the pool.
But I think the Uncle Henry Show fans that like
to gather together, we would. I'm sure we'd love to
be out there. It's your swimming pool. Just give it
some thoughts. Here and we are. And it turns out
(32:20):

think about one of these stories. So anywall bring all
(02:14):
of this forward to you and would love to hear
from you. Theoretically again that number two five one four
seven nine two seven two three or two five one
four seventy nine two seven two three. Now, before I
launch into different stories and things that I have thoughts
on or questions about, we do have a living caller.
I believe I think there's a caller on the line,
(02:36):
or maybe a telephone solicitor. Let's find out.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Hello caller, good antil uncle Henry Bert, Bert, you are
live on the radio.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Now what is that? Is that your keyboard?
Speaker 4 (02:57):
That's my new keyboard or new to me? Any very
very good. They'll be nostalgia for your listeners in your
old FA song.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Well look, Bert, anytime you want to call and just
play us something feel free. We could all we could
all use a little good music in our lives.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
That will happen very frequently, now that I've got the
instance to do it with.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Bert, let me ask you this, and I know you
probably have other things to tell us, but let me
just ask you this as a as a musician, yourself,
a man who has been in numerous bands and played
in front of crowds. I believe that music is very
similar to a drug. That music, it affects our emotions,
(03:43):
it regulates emotions. I think it is very powerful like
a drug. Do you agree with that?
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Well, you know something as a drug when you get
withdrawal symptoms. You know coffee is a drug because you
get coffee headaches, right, You know for a drug because
you get massive withdrawal symptoms. One of my ex girlfriends
smoke coool packs a day and I was with her
when she tried to quit twice. And I can't imagine
(04:10):
somebody time to get off something like there wouldn't be
any worse.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Now, have you ever had have you ever had music withdrawal?
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Well, that's what I was saying. When there's no music
for a long time, I got to turn my radio one.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Yes, yes, I agree. You know this is the time
of year that I start really having a strong withdrawal
symptom from hearing gene Autry. I'm really my body is
looking forward to gene Autry music in December when we
can hear it. Roodolph and up on the housetop and
here comes Santa Claus. Yeah, so yes, yes, I've had
(04:47):
music withdrawal too.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
So that's when you know something is a drug when
you have withdrawal symptoms, Uncle Henry, I would like to
make a comparison between what Trump is doing right now
and what Eisenhower and Kennedy did back during the Civil
rights era. Back in those days, in the fifties and sixties,
the clan could victimize people and the police would either
(05:13):
turn a blind eye or even cooperate. Right that there
was a sheriff's deputy who cooperated in the murder of
the three civil rights workers in Philadelphia, Mississippi. Yeah, and son,
Eisenhower and Kennedy had to send in troops to protect
the people because the police weren't doing their job or
(05:34):
they were sympathizing with the fogs. Well, that's what's happening
in these group cities right now, Henry. The police are
either corrupt and on the tape, or they're afraid to
take on the games, so the gangs can run wild
victimize people while police turn a blind eye. That's why
Trump descending federal troops into the blue cities for the
(05:56):
same reason that Eisenhower and Kennedy sent federal troops into
the Southern States.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Well, you know, there's you You've given that example. If
they're if they're also sending in troops or National Guard
because of ICE agents being obstructed from doing their job,
that's that is a that is a very strong parallel.
They're trying to enforce federal immigration law, and you have
other people in there trying to stop them from enforcing
(06:24):
federal law. Yeah, you said you send in who you
have to send in?
Speaker 4 (06:29):
The police are under orders for Democrat majors to stand
by while ICE agents from being attacked. That's just along
the short of it. Just like they were ordered to
stand down and do nothing during the George Floyd life.
Speaker 5 (06:43):
Sometime.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
And I'm amazed Trump didn't send them enough troops to
take care of that. That he just let the whole
summer burn down cities. It's not going to happen in
his second term. I know he has a more of
a mandate now.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Well, yes, and he and lessons learned from the first time.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Exactly. Thanks taking a.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Call, Bert, Thank you, and feel free to call back
in with some music anytime it'll happen. Hey, will you
play some more before you hang up.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
Just just just.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Just play what you played when when you when I
first answered the phone, Hang off, Bert? Thank you? All right?
(07:39):
There he goes Bert. What well, isn't it wonderful that
he would share his gifts with us? You and me?
Here we are, we're going through life trying to figure
out all these things, and he's sharing his talents with us.
What a wonder Bert, Thank you for that? What a
great what a you know? I wish I wish the
Uncle Hender Show had a budget. If we did, of
course I would be driving im a nicer car. But
(08:01):
then after that I would have a call screener, And
then after that then I would look to maybe hire
Burt to be in here just to have him play.
Just why not have the bumper music come from him
instead of me playing something that wouldn't it be wonderful?
But again, that's almost like fantasizing about winning the lottery.
(08:21):
So I'm going to stop doing that instead move forward
here in the reality in which we're all living, and
that is today's Uncle Henry Show. Got a lot of
things to get into. I'm gonna be getting into him
as the show proceeds forward in the time stream. First
(08:42):
will take a break for a traffic report, a weather report,
words from our lovely sponsors, and then more Uncle Henry's
Show after the break, Uncle Henry Show. That's me. I'm
(09:14):
me Uncle Henry. I'm the host. In case you're confus,
I don't want you to be confused. I'm Uncle Henry.
I'm me, you're you, you're the listener. All right, I
think we're I think we got it now. News headlines
are coming up in ten minutes from Fox ten and
for Fox Radio National News. Telephone number if you'd like
(09:38):
to call in and tell me something two five one
four seven nine two seven two three. That's two five
one four seven nine two seven two three email address
Uncle Henry at iHeartMedia dot com. Now, let's see, there's
so many things to get to. There's a story that
I don't understand that I need to bring up at
(09:58):
some point in this hour. There's also other stories that
I have some opinions on all of that to come
and any and who knows, I may, I don't know.
You never know what could happen at my age. You
never know. Want my pop out of my head and
out of my mouth, including my dental work again. Two
(10:20):
five one foe before. I oh, and I did have
a caller, but I've lost the caller. So instead of
going to the caller, let me let me share with
you a brief opinion. And I've already shared this opinion
in the past. But we had the the former director
of the FBI, James Comey, in court today. He pleaded
(10:46):
not guilty to charges of allegedly making false statements and
obstruction of a congressional hearing. Uh. Here is Fox News
reporter Alexandria Hoff with just some of the basics on
what happened today.
Speaker 6 (11:01):
This was the expected outcome that he would be pleading
not guilty to these charges that a grand jury handed
down to him in a two count indictment late last month.
Today he was arraigned before a judge who was a
Biden appointe, Michael Knockmanoff. He was clearer today that this
courtroom operates quickly. It's really what it's known for. So
those charges, as they're officially stated, they are a false
(11:21):
statement within the jurisdiction of the legislative branch of the
US government. Obstruction of a congressional preceding these charges largely
stem from Comy testifying in a twenty twenty Sentate Judiciary
hearing when he was asked if he had authorized someone
at the FBI to be an anonymous source to leak
info to the media. The government is alleging here he
had lied about.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
That, all right, and they and the Trump administration has
released some documents that seemed to they the documents seem
to indicate that he was lying. Now it's been this
is I don't know how closely you're following this, maybe
closer than I am. But the all of the Department
(12:01):
of Justice people up there, they did not want to
do this. They a lot of them still loyaled it
too well Lloyd not necessarily loyal to Trump or maybe
even the country. But they didn't want to bring this.
They had to bring in an outside attorney to come
in and make sure that they actually filed the charges
(12:23):
before the statute of limitations ran out. Now, somebody walked
in there, an attorney came in that wasn't working there,
and got indictments. Just walked in, got the indictments rather quickly.
(12:44):
The other people working there, and they didn't want to
do it, And they waited and they waited, and they
waited and they waited. Somebody came in with no background
on it and was able to get the indictments. Now
this is going this is going to go to a
jury Alexandria, Virginia, very very similar to a Washington, d c.
(13:08):
Jury pool would be the Alexandria, Virginia jury pool. So
the idea that he's going to be convicted, even though
it looks like they got him based on the documents,
absolutely no guarantee that he will be convicted of this.
So don't get your hopes. I'm just trying to tell you,
don't get your hopes of it if you think he lied,
and if you think he was bad, if you think
(13:31):
he's been bad, you know, spelling out messages with seashells
on a beach to attack Trump and posting them up
on Instagram or whatever he's doing. If you think, just
don't get your hopes up that anything will come of
this other than he will have to hire lawyers and
spend a bunch of money defending himself. All I'm hoping
(13:52):
for is that there will be lots of high profile
witnesses going in put under oath, having to testify about
all all the shenanigans that it looks like he was
up to. So maybe we'll maybe we'll get what really happened.
I don't know that we'll get a conviction, but at
least we'll have a better picture of what was going
on there. It looked like there was a lot of
(14:15):
a lot of mouthfeasance, a lot of shenanigans, and a
lot of line going on from a variety of people
that he was involved with, mister comy. But again, don't
get your hopes of two five one or seven nine
three the telephone number. Hello Color, Hey, hey you are
live on the radio.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Hey, I'm like Burt, I play music.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Oh really, what what musical instrument do you play?
Speaker 4 (14:43):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Melayed but trumpet?
Speaker 6 (14:45):
What?
Speaker 3 (14:45):
Just stuff? At that sound? You know, you have people people,
A lot of people are tuning in after they get
off work. They don't want to hear some adolescent freak
call on the show. Somebody. That caller sounded like some
I hate I hate to do this. I have to.
I hate to audio profile and I know that you
(15:07):
the listener, you may find that audio profiling is hurt falling, discriminatory,
but I have to. I'm sorry. I've done this job
for so many years. I can kind of tell that
sounded like somebody. It sounded like a male, at least
for now, a male who's in their their late thirties
(15:30):
early forties. They probably they don't have a girlfriend. Of course,
I don't know about any other anything. I don't want
to speculate on anything else. But it doesn't have a girlfriend,
because nobody that makes a call like that about making
a flatching some type of flatulence music that is not
(15:51):
someone that a woman would ever want to be involved with.
They wouldn't. So it's a single male or at least
mail for now. Person late thirties early forties, had high
hopes as a child, but they've gotten into a dead
end job. They're very bitter about that. They're probably don't
(16:18):
have much furniture. I'm imagining low income housing with not
much good furniture. Maybe was making that phone call while
sitting on an old milk crate or some other type
of box there's been repurposed as a furnishing item. And
(16:40):
after making this prank call, they're going they're going to
be going on Reddit or some other internet chatboard where
other weirdos congregate, and this person is going to be
drinking CBD sodas of some kind along with the miniatures
of Smirnoff vodka, and they are they're hoping that they
(17:05):
can bum marijuana off a friend so they can celebrate
their prank call. That's what I determined. That's my audio
profiling of this, That's what I think. And they're thinking
up their next Algonquin round table style insult that they
could throw into the show at a future call. There
(17:30):
is more to come. I could repeat the first half
hour of this show, but I'm not going to. I'm
going to continue with the Uncle Henry Show after the
news break here on News Radio seventy ten. The Uncle

Email address Uncle Henry iHeartMedia dot com. That's Uncle Henry,
iHeartMedia dot com. So there's a there's a story that
I saw earlier this week, and I'm really trying to
(19:21):
understand exactly what is causing this. Now. The premise of
this story from Fox News is that there is a
rising trend in the United States of America. Now you've
heard of you've heard of stay at home moms that
stay at home and raised their children, and you've heard
(19:43):
of stay at home dads that they'll stay at home
and raise the kids while the mom goes and earns
the money. In fact, I met a stay at home
dad I don't know about eight years ago who explained
to me he and his wife both had college degrees,
they had three kids, and they did the math, and
(20:04):
they figured that they would actually save money if he
stayed home, because it would cost so much money to
put the kids and have somebody watch them professionally. Anyway,
I've I've met stay at home dads and stay at
home moms. Well, now there's a new trend, according to
Fox News, of stay at home sons. Stay at home sons.
(20:31):
Now this is a story. I don't understand this. Here
is a reporter, Madison Allworth of Fox Business, to briefly
explain this.
Speaker 7 (20:40):
Essentially, it's men in their twenties and thirties that are
often to stay home with their parents.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Got men in their twenties and thirties staying home with
their parents.
Speaker 7 (20:49):
Good old mom and dad, and to not work.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
So they're not getting a job, They're not living there
and working. It's stay at home sons in their twenties
and thirties.
Speaker 7 (21:04):
Essentially, it's men in their twenties and thirties that are
often to stay home with their parents, with good old
mom and dad and to not work. So they're saying
no thanks to a career, and instead they're doing things
around the home like grocery shopping, cooking dinner, fixing things
around the house. It's a trend that a lot of
moms like because they love to have their kids around.
But not everyone that stays home is a stay at
(21:26):
home son. But there are a lot of adults living
at home. According to the US Census, one in three
adults between the ages of eighteen and thirty four live
with their moms and dads.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
All right, so one in three. Now, this is what
I want to know. Is this because of the economy?
Is it because that it's that much more difficult now
than it used to be to be able to afford
to live on your own. You know, we had years
during the Biden years of runaway inflation where your dollar
(21:57):
just doesn't buy what it used to buy. Yeah, and
that's food, that's everything. So is that Why is it
the economy that's causing stay at home sons or is
it something different psychologically about modern young men. Has the
(22:22):
culture changed in some way to create this? Now you
heard that reporter say moms like it. Okay, but that's fine.
But I'm confused that the stay at home son would
like it, because based on the culture I grew up in,
(22:45):
I really wanted to get out of the house, and
it wasn't because I had great parents. My parents were
very nice people, law abiding. They weren't partiers. I wanted
to leave because I wanted to live the way I
(23:05):
wanted to live. I didn't want to have I had rule.
There were rules in the house because my parents were
civilized human beings. They had rules. They had rules for
growing up. And you weren't going to be able to
do this in the house. You weren't going to be
able to do that in the house. I wanted to
have my own house with my own rules. Are modern
(23:30):
families different now where that ain't no rules? Because that's
all I that's all my mind goes to, is either
they can't afford it, or it's so great at home?
Why would I want to leave and do whatever I want?
I mean, it is that? What is it? Two five
(23:53):
one four seven nine two seven two three The telephone
number to call on the Uncle Eber Show.
Speaker 5 (23:58):
Hello, Color, Hey, Jimmy the economist.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Jimmy, you are live on the radio.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
I hear you talking about economics. I certainly had to
call in and give one more statistic that didn't mention
that I saw today. Okay, thirty eight percent of US
mails under thirty have a full time job.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
So only thirty eight percent, that's correct. Now, see that's
a scary statistic.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
Yeah, I guess they're pulling double duty for time in
order to come up with twenty percent to buy a home.
What's the chiefest home around here these days?
Speaker 3 (24:44):
I don't know. Yeah, I mean it's it's been amazing.
It's been amazing the way that Holmes have appreciated you.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
Let's just say one to fifty. They got to come
up with thirty in a traditional eighty twenty format. Who
which you know, anybody under the age of thirty just
sitting around with thirty thousand dollars sitting in the.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
Bank, very very, very few.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
And then you add on top of that that only
thirty eight percent of them have a full time job.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (25:19):
Yeah, I think they're so addicted to their phones and
to automation they forgot to realize that actual hard labor
creates income just as much as staring at that stupid
freaking phone.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
Have a good day, Thank you, Jimmy. I appreciate your
phone call. With that stat, thirty eight percent of males
under thirty have a full time job, only thirty eight percent.
And I wonder about this because I'm hearing more and
more about the house, how difficult it is for people
in that age group to achieve what their parents were
(25:54):
able to achieve when they were that age. What is
this going to do to the politics of people that
are in their twenties? What are they? Are they gen Z?
What is this going to do to gen z politics?
Are they going to be? Are they going to be
more conservative in hoping that there can be policies to
(26:16):
fix this, or are they going to be more left
wing commie try and just redistribute the wealth. Upset that
they see their grandparents sitting in a nice, big house,
that they look at the math and figure out that
they're not going to be able to afford to get
to that spot even when their grandparents. I don't know,
(26:40):
but all the politicians, all the really smart political people,
might need to be thinking about, what are you going
to do? Come up with some policies to make the
American dream a little more achievable for people under the
aidge of thirty, at least as achievable as it used
(27:03):
to be thirty years ago or forty years ago. Because
I think we're going to be getting some ticked off,
a ticked off generation that is going to be ready
to grab the wheel and they're going to be pulling
that wheel hard in one direction. Better make sure it's
(27:27):
a direction you feel good about. There is more to come.
Neil Glanders Show continues after the news. Well, this is
a commercials trafficking weather for you, and then right back.
Speaker 8 (27:41):
Out down Hold down, Hold down, dow down.

Hold Uncle Henry's Show. It is five fifty news headlines
coming up in ten minutes here on the Uncle Henry Show.
Telephone number two five one four seven nine two seven
(28:18):
two three. Hello Coller, Hello, Welcole, Yes, sir, how you
doing tonight? I'm doing fine? Thank you good?
Speaker 9 (28:32):
Got two or three quick comments? Okay, First, I got
a good name for the new hockey team, A new A.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
Good name for the the good name for the new
hockey team. So what would that be?
Speaker 9 (28:46):
Well, instead of the Mobile Mystics of Time, it'll be
called the Mobile Mystics of Wasted Time.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Okay, all right, the Mobile Mystics of Wasted Time.
Speaker 9 (28:56):
Uh. Next, have you ever met nice with Steve?
Speaker 3 (29:01):
Yes? I have I met. I met him a couple
of times. In fact, I met him years ago, first
time out at the flea market.
Speaker 9 (29:10):
Cool, right, that's when when when you hear us, like
a lot of your callers, when you hear callers, you
envision what they probably might look like, and hundred percent
of the time they looked totally different. And uh, Steve's
one of them, mate. He looks like the doppelganger of
Heisenberg from Breaking Bad?
Speaker 5 (29:29):
Do you agree?
Speaker 3 (29:30):
I you know, you'll be disappointed to know that I
did not watch Breaking Bad due to its drug themes.
Speaker 9 (29:36):
Well, you do know what Hausenburg looks like, at least
with the bald head and the gotee.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
Oh yeah, okay, Oh the main actor. Okay, yeah, the
main guy, the guy that was cooking up the math.
Speaker 5 (29:45):
Yeah, yeah, I started.
Speaker 9 (29:48):
I watched a few of Steve's YouTube videos, which I enjoy.
He's he's definitely a knife. Uh spin gully if you will,
And yeah, he looks totally I was picture of being
kind of an overbeast kind of guy and all that
kind of stuff, and now he's a fit, a fit
guy and he looks exactly like Heisenberg from Breaking Bad.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (30:11):
The third comment, after listening to Snake Trapper Talk hit
for his comments. Over all the years, I think I
finally figured out that I live directly across the lake
from him. No, Jack, Wow, I live in Summer Lake Subdivision.
I won't tell you any more than that. And there's
(30:31):
a lakes and last I know is a while back
he said that his neighbor feeds the geese large amounts
of bread whatnot. And sure enough, there's a guy that
right across the lake does that. And and I just
kind of have an idea. I'm thinking that he lives
(30:54):
in that neighborhood across the street over off of Snow Road.
So it's kind of funny. I think I've narrowed it down,
and I'm pretty sure he was right across from lake.
Have given us a shout out to stake Trapper that
next time he's in his backyard to look across the
lake and look for probably one of the only houses
(31:14):

All right, there, he goes, Thank you, sir for your
phone call. Now you've got to you live out there
near a lake or on a lake with a swimming pool,
so you should think about hosting and Uncle Henry's show gathering.
Maybe we could come out to your pool. We'll bring
the food. You just have to make sure that your
(31:58):
insurance will cover any possible property damage, any liability, any
of us falling, slipping and hurting ourselves around the pool.

to gather together, we would. I'm sure we'd love to
be out there. It's your swimming pool. Just give it
some thoughts. Here and we are. And it turns out

type of friends giving for the Uncle Henry Show. I'll

share with you. I don't know if I have time
to play the I don't. I don't have time to
