full display today, President Trump, Wow, the peace maker.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
So President Selenski at the White House. Good meetings there.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
Apparently the summit coming up in a couple of weeks
with Putin, So you would think this summit doesn't get
set unless they're very very certain they're at least going
to get a cease fire out of it.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
So Trump on a roll.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
I do want to play some sound a bit of
the President using the F word in a very formal,
deliberate context and get your reaction to that. It certainly
got attention under the circumstances. But what a role he
is on when it comes to a peace making three
or three seven to one three eight two five five
the number text da N five seven seven three nine

(00:57):
piece or strength, right, we all know that's what works.
And Denver Post Today House editorial now says there has
to be an armed officer and every school in Colorado
absolutely at.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
A minimum, and I think it needs to go way
beyond that.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
So we're extending that out into what is doable and
why the left opposes this so ferociously, and how we
break through that politically motivated, selfish opposition, which should tell
every voter in Colorado the Left doesn't really care about
these kids. Is if people didn't realize that already. Let's
get back to the phone lines, because Steve from Colorado Springs,

(01:34):
I think, is also going to comment on one of
the more interesting dynamics we've seen in decades in Colorado
shaping up politically. If it happens, it will involve the
mayor of Colorado Springs. Yemmy Mobilad, who's going to be
with us Tuesday at four thirty six. Steve, thanks for
hanging man late on us.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
Yeah, just where we're at real quickly, my daughter went
to a rampart and she thought it was some sort
of Jurassic Dyno curmudgeon because I would buy the guard
a nine milimeter cliff as Christmas present. She thought, what
are you doing that?

Speaker 2 (02:08):
That's great?

Speaker 3 (02:10):
And yeah he did.

Speaker 4 (02:13):
She did.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
Actually back in the elementary school days when things were
just ramping up pretty lack security, go into the main
office and they give you this big yellow name tag
and you fill it out yourself. And I used to
always write Osama bin Lawton on the name. And it
was only one person in those five years that looked
and said Osama have been lauden. Her group was the

(02:39):
first one to go all the way through the IV program.
Man Nasal Beacoriot and man, they worked those kids like crazy.
I know by you pulled all nighters until college.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Yeasays they get worked so hard, my friend, give us
your take on.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
Yeah, very interesting background. He became a citizen seven years ago.
I'm still trying to get suit to my lovely Persian
princess baby Mama. Who he is his name because he's
two and a half years into his terminy he doesn't know.
But anyway to give a citizen seven years ago, and
he did some really great work in small business development.

(03:15):
The jury is still out on him. I think he's
a little bit too pre spending for my taste, because
this is not unlimited operation with funds. It's spongeable number one,
number two. All these entered the city, state, et cetera.
Should have known that the waterfall of money from Biden
was going to be cut off at some point when

(03:37):
he brought three and a half trillion for every cut
picking thing under the world and with shoven money.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
Let me ask you this, and I'm so sorry to
interrupt just a lot of colors who want to get
to but tell me, if Mobila enters the governor's race,
what percentage of Republicans do you think will consider.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
Voting for him?

Speaker 4 (03:57):
Great question.

Speaker 3 (03:58):
I don't know. I think suffered independent as we saw
with russ Parole, which I voted for mistakenly. But it's
an interesting changed.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Yeah, yeah, no, it'll be interesting to see. Thank you, Steve,
really appreciate your call. Let's go down to Las Vegas,
New Mexico.

Speaker 2 (04:18):
Charles. You're on the dan Kaplas. You'll welcome.

Speaker 5 (04:22):
Thanks Dan.

Speaker 6 (04:22):
I'll quickly weigh in on the Colorado Springs mayor that
will split the Republican vote period. So I don't support
any independent and the race from my perspective. But I
wanted to just say that sro in every classroom is
entirely too expensive. It sounds like ten million dollars for
a large district, and there's just.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
Simply not enough people.

Speaker 7 (04:45):
Who care enough about guns and this issue. I mean,
you six hundred dollars a week to sit in a class,
you'd have to have ten thousand.

Speaker 6 (04:57):
There's just simply not enough people inter I said in
guns enough to satisfy your requests.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
Forgive me, and if I misspoke, forgive me. And we're
talking about one per school is what the Post has endorsed.
I think we can easily, with almost no additional expense,
have many more than one per school, you know, through
highly qualified, very very well trained volunteer faculty and staff.
But no, we're only talking about paying one sro per school,

(05:27):
according to the Denver Post. I personally think we should
have more than that.

Speaker 8 (05:32):
Okay, my mistake.

Speaker 4 (05:33):
I thought that's per classroom.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
Sure, sure, no, I get it. No, it would be
per school.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
But believe it or not, in Colorado right now, there
are a bunch of schools that don't have any.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
Yeah, how in the world do you justify that? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (05:46):
Hey, man, appreciate the call. Appreciate the call. Thank you
from Have you been to Las Vegas, New Mexico?

Speaker 9 (05:51):
Ryan, I have been to Las Vegas and Nevada many times,
but never have I ever been to Las Vegas, New Mexico.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
I wonder how many people have like planned vacations, trips,
et cetera. Thought they were going to Vegas and they
ended up in Las Vegas, New Mexico.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
Oh, that sounds like a fun little plot twist.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Texter says, Oh, by the way, I mentioned an airline
that's adding first class.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
To see that story that Southwest Airlines is going to
add some first class.

Speaker 10 (06:14):
I didn't know that.

Speaker 9 (06:15):
I did know that they were going to assign seating
instead of the cattle herding project they've been doing for
so many cattle.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
Yeah, I've always hated that, so have I.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
I've always had I did.

Speaker 10 (06:24):
They even do that? What made that seem like a
good idea?

Speaker 11 (06:27):
No?

Speaker 2 (06:28):
I know?

Speaker 1 (06:28):
Yeah, Well, the fact they're changing it tells you everything.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
A Texter says.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
Dan The left wants only one thing related to guns,
a complete ban, with that being the case that serves
their purpose to allow school shootings to happen. That's a
text saying that, not me. It goes on to say,
that's very hard to admit. School staff with guns is
the only solution available today. Even if guns were banned
this evening, it would be generations before they were reduced

(06:54):
enough to benefit Slash prevent school shootings.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
I do not believe that the left one.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
School shootings, believing it serves their purpose to allow those
to happen.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
I understand the argument.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
I've heard the argument before that the left want school
shootings because then they use it as an excuse to
argue for ban on guns. I understand that argument. I
just personally disagree with it. But I don't think there's
any question about this that the Left and everybody in
charge of a school who makes that decision not to
have at least one armed officer there, has made a conscious, premeditated,

(07:30):
deliberate decision to allow that the killers, if they go
to that school, to kill as many as they can
in the time it takes law enforcement to get there.
They have made that decision in advance, in my humble opinion,
and how can anybody justify that? And we have a
number of Texters saying, hey, the solution is don't go

(07:51):
to public schools, and believe me, Hey, I'm the guy
who's been on air for three decades saying once this country,
and it will once this country goes to school choice.
You know where you actually have these scholarship slash vouchers,
middle and lower income kids, and you have the power
of the marketplace going to work. You bet that's going
to transform this issue in a heartbeat, because then parents

(08:14):
are going to vote with their pocketbook and say, yeah,
I'm sending my kid to.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
A school where they have an armed guard or more.
You bet you.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
But right now, as a practical matter, most parents don't
have that option of saying, Okay, no, I'm not going
to send my kid to the government run school. So yeah,
I think what's going on clearly is the Left has
made it very very very clear that they hate guns

(08:41):
more than they love kids, or to be more precise,
they hate gun rights more than they value the lives
of children. They're making a direct trade and they're playing
Russian Roulette with the lives of these kids. If you
think there's a flow in that logic, tell me. I'd
love to be wrong about this, but I don't think

(09:02):
there's any flaw in that logic. I think that's the
harsh reality that we're facing right now. Three O three
seveone three eight two five five text d An five
seven seven three nine Interesting text here, Ryan says Dan.
It's bad enough when a trained, experienced police officer.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Has their lives and careers ruined in a righteous shoot.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
Cannot imagine many teachers wanting the lawsuits involved with being armed.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
Let's start with that.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
I understand the concern, but I think the Texter is
dead wrong because we've seen over and over again where
teachers are willing unarmed teachers are willing.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
To die to save the kids.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
If somebody is willing to die to save the kids,
they're willing to risk a lawsuit to save the kids.
That's bulletproof logic right there. I don't think there'd be
any shortage of highly qualified volunteers.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
You think of all the.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
Faculty and staff in schools, you know, with former military,
often at a very high level, special ops, former law enforcement. Yeah,
there's just a bounty of trained, experienced talent that would
step in and do this job out of love for
the kids. And if I'm wrong on that, hey, we'll
find out. But we need to put the programs in

(10:19):
place so that we can then find out. And Laura
Karno the great work that she's been doing around the
state with Faster, they've had no shortage of highly trained,
qualified volunteers in those situations where the school district allows it.
Three out three see three, eight, two, five, five the number.
And I do want to get your take. If you
have me mobilatate runs, do you think I'll peel off

(10:41):
enough Republicans to be able to actually win the race
and defeat the Democrat. I'm not advocating that, just wondering
what you think of this dynamic, which we have not
seen around here before.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
You're on the Dan Kaplas Show.

Speaker 10 (11:00):
And now back to the Dan Kapla Show podcast.

Speaker 12 (11:03):
Our president has stuck out his neck in many ways
to make a pie deal for your war as well.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
What specific concessions.

Speaker 12 (11:09):
Are you willing to make dan this war with Russia?
Will you give up joining NATO? Americans have foreign war
fatigue and our presidents, as he said, we need our
tomahawks two.

Speaker 5 (11:22):
To me.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
Yes, you okay, you have some questions, so many questions
in one. Thank you very much for your question.

Speaker 13 (11:30):
First of all, I think we need.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
To sit and speak.

Speaker 13 (11:34):
The second point, we need cease file even now. You
see in the Middle East it's very difficult to hold
his file everywhere in every war, it's very difficult. We
want this which he doesn't want. That's why we need
pressure on it, or we will speak with President today.
What we need, we understand, what we need to push

(11:57):
put in to negotiation team.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Glad you're here five twenty three on this beautiful afternoon
lines in Fuego.

Speaker 2 (12:04):
Great weekend ahead.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
The Denver posts coming out today in a house editorial
and sane, and we applaud them for you should be
an armed officer in every school in Colorado.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
No more kids dying.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
To save their classmates, as obviously the great hero Kendrick
Castillo did.

Speaker 2 (12:22):
Kids at Evergreen. You know they're willing to.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
Sacrifice their lives to save their classmates. No, we need
an armed officer in every school. And I say more
than that. And then we're talking about jogging where you know,
these bad guys stick out banks and ATMs and then
rob you as you come out. And why don't more
banks have armed guards? And you know, should you only
go to a bank that has an armed guard. Let's

(12:46):
go up to beautiful northeast Colorado.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
Talk to Mike. You're on the Dan kaplah'.

Speaker 14 (12:50):
Welcome, Hi Dan. How's it going going great?

Speaker 2 (12:54):
How about you.

Speaker 14 (12:57):
So far?

Speaker 10 (12:57):
So Viet good?

Speaker 14 (13:00):
Anyway, I've talked to a number of people, get a
lot of resistance on this but I think that the teacher,
everybody on the school staff should be armed, from the
superintendent to the bus driver or the guy that cleans
the latrines. I'll go what they need training and.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
Education on that, But as long as.

Speaker 8 (13:25):
They're on school.

Speaker 14 (13:26):
Property or a school function, be a day to day class,
field trip, sports event, whatever, they should.

Speaker 8 (13:37):
Be required by the district to carry their side off.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
Now, Mike, shouldn't that be limited to qualified volunteers or
are you saying you'd require.

Speaker 8 (13:45):
It, require them to be qualified, have them trained, have
them because volunteers are great, but there's a lot of
things that.

Speaker 14 (13:58):
Can come up and oops, I got an emergency at home,
and they're not always going to be there. But the
school staff majors are always there, always present, and they
can be You can anybody that is willing to learn

(14:19):
can be trained to use a firearm.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
Yeah, and it's that willing to learn. Mike really appreciate
the call. Thank you.

Speaker 1 (14:28):
As determined as I am to have as many qualified
people in schools with firearms as possible, I would never
require somebody to do it personally. I just don't think
it'd be right to require anybody to handle a gun
who didn't want to, and even those who want to,
I think they should have to pass, you know, very
rigorous testing, you know psychologically, you know, firearms skills, et cetera.

(14:51):
But we have so much talent, as we've talked about
right in these faculty and staffs in most schools that
I don't think there'd be any shortage of.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
Highly qualified volunteers.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
And think of the deterrent value of that too, right,
because we know, we know for watching the pattern of
these monsters that even the really really stupid, drugged up ones,
they do their surveillance, they do their homework, they know
what schools have an armed officer or more, and it's
there's a magnet effect when a school doesn't. Now, there
are some schools that have armed personnel that still get attacked,

(15:25):
but there's a magnet effect I think for it just
as a practical matter for any school that decides no,
they're not going to have an armed officer, they're going
to play Rusian roulette with these kids' lives.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
They'll just take their chances.

Speaker 1 (15:36):
Now, this texter goes on to say, I also don't
exactly know what an armed bank guard is going to
do when the thieves are striking after the customer leaves
the bank.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
Thank you for raising that. You know, in my experience in.

Speaker 1 (15:47):
The past, when I banked to places that have an
armed guard, they'll often follow somebody out. I mean, they're
not potted plants. They see that somebody's in there and
they take out a large deposit, etc. In the past,
I've seen guards follow people out her patrol, you know,
the outside, at least as part of a regular round.
But again, the bad guys they know right when a

(16:10):
bank doesn't have an our guard, and again I think
that increases the danger. Let's go up to beautiful Boulder,
Color I to talk to Kevin. You're on the dan Kaplis.
She'll welcome.

Speaker 5 (16:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 15 (16:21):
I got a short story about that Rolling Stone song
you just played. Gimme shelter, Yes, sir. They were in
Hollywood recording the song and Nick Jaeger decided that he
wanted a female singer on some of it, and they
mentioned Mary Clayton, who was a well known backup singer

(16:42):
in La So they called her up at like two
point thirty in the morning, woke her up, asked her
if she wanted to be on a Rolling Stone song.
She agreed, so she went to the studio. She showed
up in her bathrobe and curlers wow. And they gave
her the lyrics to the song that she was saying.

(17:05):
She's going, what is this rape?

Speaker 5 (17:07):
Murder?

Speaker 15 (17:08):
Is just a shot away? These children, It's just a
kiss away and just being on that. I think she's
saying two verses on that song plus the end, and it.

Speaker 5 (17:21):
Made her.

Speaker 15 (17:23):
Sort of a superstar backup singers.

Speaker 10 (17:25):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (17:26):
Good story, man, I really appreciate that.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
We've got to hit a hardbreak now, Brian, Did I
ever tell you that story about the similar call I
got from Hollywood?

Speaker 2 (17:38):
No, I never told you.

Speaker 10 (17:39):
That's how to do it.

Speaker 1 (17:40):
When we come back early morning hours, I'm out there
covering the Rodney Kintra.

Speaker 2 (17:44):
Fifteen seconds I got this call.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Hey, you've got to be down and I can't remember
the name of the big hotel in Hollywood.

Speaker 2 (17:49):
You got to be down here within half an hour.
It's like two in the morning.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
The way it ended, I'll never get out of my
head here on the Dankata Show.

Speaker 10 (18:05):
You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.

Speaker 2 (18:09):
Good, but the picture was horrible. He was a good
looking man.

Speaker 10 (18:11):
Why would they do that to the boss.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
Yeah, either one interesting interest and yeah, the big Boss Trump.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
We know why they did that.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
Three oh three someone three eight two five five the
number text d A N five.

Speaker 2 (18:24):
Seven seven through nine lines and Feagel. We'll go right
back driving.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
Most of the conversation today is the issue of armed
officers and volunteers in school. Stender Post today credit to
them coming out in a house editorial and saying we
need an armed officer in every school in Colorado, and
they are absolutely right about that.

Speaker 2 (18:44):
I think we need even more than that. So that's
where the story.

Speaker 1 (18:46):
Takes off at dovetails with this increase in jugging in Colorado,
which is when they wait outside a bank or an
ATM in order to rob somebody because hey, that's where
the money is, right, So do you really want to
bank at a band that doesn't have an armed guard?
And which banks actually do right now? So that part
of the conversation. Sometime in this segment. I'll get back

(19:07):
and deliver on the tees I had before the break,
because it really is an interesting story. Let's go up
to a beautiful broomfield, Colorado. Todd, you're on the Dan Kaplis.

Speaker 10 (19:16):
She'll welcome.

Speaker 5 (19:19):
Segy Dan I just wanted to.

Speaker 11 (19:22):
You know, I don't know what the solution is, and
I'll think volunteers are a good idea. I think we
should have law enforcement taking care of municipal facility, schools,
whatever the case may be. But I wish I had

(19:43):
a solution because I think I don't think I'm alone
is saying that we're just fed up?

Speaker 1 (19:52):
You know, well, the solution is there, my friend, and
grateful for your call the reason and listen, my hero
is my f now in heaven. But Chicago police officer
before heaven for thirty years, Chicago police officer and the
best police officer, the best police force in the world,
is going to take some time to get there. And
these killers know that, and they planned for that. They

(20:14):
can kill an awful lot of people in thirty seconds,
let alone a minute or two minutes or five minutes.
And so I don't know how anybody could ever accept
a plan when the most precious thing in the face
of the earth is these children. Right, every sane person
would agree, How could you ever accept a plan that
would allow demons a minute, two minutes, five minutes, eight
minutes to kill as many.

Speaker 2 (20:34):
As they could.

Speaker 1 (20:36):
To me, that that's not even an option.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
Now the left is committed to that.

Speaker 1 (20:42):
Many on the left are committed to that because their
anti gun agenda is more important to them than the
lives of kids. But the rest of us need to
rise up and do whatever we have to do within
the process to make sure these kids are protected. Textures
on this see some of these, Dan, I bet you

(21:02):
a steak. You couldn't get more than ten percent of
any school staff to arm up. You wouldn't need more
than ten percent of most school staffs. You need a
very small number of people. And just because they want
to arm up doesn't mean you can.

Speaker 2 (21:13):
Let them arm up. You know, they got to pass some.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Really stringent testing and training under any sensible program. But
we have programs like this working in Colorado right now,
particularly in some rural districts, and I think we need
them everywhere. Let's go to Warren in Colorado Springs. You're
on the Dan Kapitlas show.

Speaker 5 (21:32):
Welcome, Oh down, I hope.

Speaker 2 (21:36):
So this could all just be a dream?

Speaker 5 (21:37):
Yeah? Hey, Well, what's what makes the determination whether that
happens before I get to Ukraine? That what if guns
or weapons firearms are allowed by qualified people? What determines
whether that can happen or not. What's kind of board people,
an organization or who.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
School board gets to make those decisions? Now, private school,
you get the individual school. But school boards in Colorado
can make that decision. I mentioned Laura Colonel earlier with faster.
You know, they've trained plenty of school districts, mostly rural is.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
Where they've allowed it. But Colorado law would allow a
school board to do that.

Speaker 5 (22:13):
I see so some school boards they are a favor
of it, some aren't. I suppose, Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
But what you see as a big trend, say in
the front range areas where many, many, many schools do
not permit it. And to me, that's just that's playing
Russian Roulette with the kids.

Speaker 5 (22:29):
I agree with you one hundred percent of that. Okay,
Now my stavored old subject. We've talked about this for
two and a half years now, every once in a while.
It's been quite a while, but I just have two
questions for you. I was born nineteen forty, so I'll
put most of all life through the Cold War from
a time I was ten years old, so I was
forty years old, fifty years old just about. Anyway, Nayo

(22:51):
is a military organization. So was the Warsaw Pack when
the Warsaw Pack dissolved, when the Civil Union collapsed and disappeared. Why,
what was the reason NATO even stayed in the existence then,
because it's familiarity organization designed to fight a war and
there was no threat of a war in nineteen ninety
one after solviets Clip. So what was the reason in
your opinion or knowledge that NATO stayed in.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
The existence of security security? You know?

Speaker 14 (23:17):
Two?

Speaker 2 (23:18):
Well, the things changed.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
Warren't that they things are fluid, right, I mean obviously Russia.
And so let's just cut to it because for those
who haven't been through our prior conversations, love Warren, but
it's kind of like groundhog Day with Warren and me
because Warren believes that the invasion of Ukraine was justified.
I believe that it was a demonic raping and pillaging

(23:40):
of a nation. So we just disagree on this, my friend.

Speaker 5 (23:44):
Well, yeah, last question then, what would have our what
would the American opinion have been if Mexico would ask
Warsaw PAX to be part of its members with Russian
military equipment on California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas border.
What would our reaction to that have ben If Mexico
says we want you win more, sew back and they said, okay, well, yeah, no.

Speaker 2 (24:04):
We we are never going to allow right, we are
never going to allow you.

Speaker 1 (24:08):
Know, the old Soviet Union or Russia, you know, to
set up arms in Mexico, just as we didn't allow
it in Cuba.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
But what you're talking about.

Speaker 5 (24:18):
Okay, Fernado to set up its military organization on the
Russian border.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
Well the response, what, no, what we're talking about here?
First of all, yes, I think it is. Second, what
we're talking about here is because America they are an equivalents, Warren,
America does not have the history that Russia has.

Speaker 2 (24:36):
They're not equivalents.

Speaker 5 (24:38):
Russia military equipment, military in two countries. In the whole world,
we have military in eight hundred.

Speaker 1 (24:43):
I'm talking about the morality of the nations, the history
of the nations, the body of work of the nations.
We are not the same nation. We don't have the
United States and.

Speaker 5 (24:54):
Countries in Russian dada is the last two hundred years.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
And when the US has why and where does this
come from?

Speaker 14 (25:01):
Warren?

Speaker 1 (25:02):
Why would you want to call this radio show you
sound like a decent, nice guy. Why would you want
to call this radio show and defense sation? No, no, no,
but why would you want to call the show and
defend Satan? That's who Putin is, He's Satan.

Speaker 2 (25:14):
Well, why are.

Speaker 5 (25:15):
Judas the people that took us place? Then it would
be worse, they'd be more hard call.

Speaker 1 (25:19):
Okay, So that means that, okay, so you're going to
call the show to defend Satan and the raping and
pillaging of Ukraine and that the waste.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
I'm sorry, Warren, I'm going to finish my sentence.

Speaker 5 (25:32):
One.

Speaker 2 (25:34):
All right.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
I'm sorry to put Warren on hold. But we've been
through this a thousand times before. We've litigated this before.
And I'll bring Warren back and give him a final
word and say goodbye.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
But we've been through this before. The bottom line is
my view, there was.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
No justification whatsoever for the invasion of Ukraine and the
raping and the pillaging and the mass sacrifice of of
these sons of Russian mothers and fathers. Listen, there's not
a moral equivalence here. Ukraine is the innocent victim, Russia
is the perpetrator, but Putin is willing to just send

(26:12):
into the meat grinder hundreds of thousands of these Russian
boys as well. And why would Warren feel motivated to
call this show and defend Putin. I don't get that,
and I think I probably never will. And it looks
like Warren has taken off, which I like Warren, but
that's probably better for everybody. Three all three seven one,

(26:34):
three eight two five five takes DN five seven seven
three nine. I want to deliver on the tease. Just
before the break, we had a caller call and talk
about Rolling Stones coming a backup singer in LA at
two in the morning to come in and do a
track and then she became famous.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
But I was right.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
I was working the Rodney King trial. Was it oj
Rodney King? It was Rodney King. I was working the
Rodney King trial. And I was at my hotel in
LA near the courthouse, and I got this call from
a very very well known, nationally well known woman who
was on national TV and on a morning show and

(27:14):
very often and she called and said, hey, do you
want to be on And she named the show and
she said if you want to be on it? And
I said, you bet I do, and she said, well,
be in my hotel room in thirty minutes, you know.
And this is two thirty in the morning. You said
be in my hotel room in thirty minutes, and you know,
we'll get ready for the segment. And I think it

(27:35):
was probably started at five Pacific time. So I show
up at the hotel room. Okay, I'm single at the time,
show up at the hotel room, opens.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
The door pretty much birthday suit. Oh hello, oh man.

Speaker 1 (27:56):
I just turned around and walked away, and you were
one of I paid the price for that one.

Speaker 9 (28:03):
In a hundred guys that would have walked away.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
Yeah, no, I did, and I mean I can still
picture it. I would hold it, Steve Price. It would
have been great to become a regular on that show.

Speaker 10 (28:16):
Regular Is that what they call it?

Speaker 2 (28:18):
Well, I'm not sure what they call it, but I
was not it. Nope, I was not it.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
I turned around and went back to my little room
at the New Otanni next to the Federal Courthouse, and
I was very happy with that.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
You're on the Dan Capla Show.

Speaker 10 (28:40):
And now back to the Dan Kaplass Show podcast.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Texter says Dan morgod news. George Santos is free. So
President Trump commuting the sentence of George Santos. He'd been
sentenced to seven years republican fraud charges.

Speaker 2 (28:58):
Stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (28:58):
So I was really curus as to why the president
did that, right, because the president's on a historically great
role right now. And here was the president's explanation a
few minutes ago off of true social and I'll quoted
for batim, George Santos was somewhat of a rogue, But
there are many rogues throughout our country that aren't forced
to serve seven years in prison. I started to think

(29:20):
about George when the subject of Democratic Senator Richard Danang
Dick Bluementhal came up. As everyone remembers, Danang stated for
almost twenty years he was a proud Vietnam veteran, having
endured the worst of the war, watching the wounded and
dead as he raced up the hills down the valley's
blood streaming from his face. He was a quote great hero.
He would leak to any and all who would listen.
And then it happened he was a complete and total fraud.

Speaker 2 (29:43):
Dnang Dick never went to Vietnam.

Speaker 1 (29:45):
He never saw Vietnam, he never experienced the battles there
or anywhere else. His war hero status and even minimal
service in our military was totally incompletely made up. That
is far worse than what George Santos did. And at
least Santos had the courage, conviction, and intelligence to always
vote Republican. George has been in solitary confinement for long
stretches of time and by all accounts, has been horribly mistreated. Therefore,

(30:07):
I just signed a commutation releasing George Santos from prison immediately.
Good luck, George, have a great life. That from President Trump.
So I'm glad he had offered that explanation there, because
I think a lot of people were scratching their heads
and at least now they have that perspective. Thank you
to Deputy Bow from the Troubleshooters show.

Speaker 2 (30:28):
He left me these.

Speaker 1 (30:31):
Cover caps for tires for a nineteen thirty five Chevy
and he said they have a tip so that you
can release the air without pens or fingernails, And thank
you to Deputy Bow for that. I don't know if
you've ever tried to release air from an overinflated tire,
but my pro tip would be don't use a red

(30:52):
pen to do it, because then I found myself completely
covered in red ink.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
Lesson learned not to be repeated, at least not this week.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
Let's go to our favorite homeless caller.

Speaker 2 (31:04):
That would be Tracy in Longmont.

Speaker 4 (31:06):
How you doing, my friend, I'm doing great, and you
know I called to to have you give consideration to something.
It'll take a magnifying glass.

Speaker 2 (31:18):
So okay.

Speaker 3 (31:20):
Well, and it's on the dollar.

Speaker 4 (31:22):
Yes, it's on the Great Sale of the Dollar on
the bottom of the pyramid the alpha numerics or MBC
C l ex, eggs v I, and if you add
all those numbers of alpha numerically on the Great Seal,
it adds up to six six six in Roman numerics.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
Well, Tracy, I don't think that was the intent, my friend,
but always great to hear from you. I'm sorry we're
near the end of the show. We often talked to
Tracy for a long time. Very cool guy with a
fascinating life story, and he is homeless and we've talked
about that at links, so appreciate him listening to the show.
Texter or Dan, this is Robert. I apologize for my
dog barking when we listen to your show every night.
He's twenty years old. And has a hard time. So

(32:08):
we drive around the neighborhood and listen to you. Because
the twenty year old dog can't walk. I wonder if
your rul story, if your voice is soothing for the dog. Maybe,
I hope so that could be tough drive. What a
cool story. Thank you for that, Robert, And then he
goes on to make a couple of points on some
of the issues of the day. My point with the

(32:29):
waiver at the bank is they have unarmed security guards,
and if they were armed, once you leave the building,
they can't do anything, just as if someone breaks into
your house and they leave, you can't shoot him in
your front yard. Interesting text, But thank you Robert for
that amazing story.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
That makes me feel so good.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
He drives around the neighborhood with his twenty year old
dog listening to the show.

Speaker 2 (32:52):
How cool that is the picture of that.

Speaker 1 (32:54):
Yeah, me too, Me too. We have an eighteen year
old dog, and great dog. She decided about ten years
ago she didn't like going to the bathroom outside.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
But other than that, heck of a dog, Other than
that small detail, yeah, yeah, but hey, nobody's perfect, right, Dan.

Speaker 1 (33:10):
Referees at football games are not going to carry guns man.
I would go to those games, right, I mean, you
could sell the cable rights to those games, but yeah,
I don't think we'll see that, and I'm not pushing
for that either.

Speaker 2 (33:24):
So big weekend plans.

Speaker 9 (33:26):
My friend just gonna be bumming around town watching the football.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
Okay, some good football, not great football, but good football.

Speaker 2 (33:34):
This Bronco Giants matchup should.

Speaker 10 (33:36):
Be oh yes, a lot of trash talking.

Speaker 1 (33:38):
Yeah, that should be really interesting and CSU I expect
they'll win tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (33:45):
Night against Tawai.

Speaker 1 (33:47):
The Buffs get a week off and the Buffs rising
right then they go into Utah the next week on
National TV. Win that game and you're right in the
heart of the ball picture. So great time to be alive.
Thank you Ryan for all the great work this week,
and above all, thank you to you for listening and
hope you have a fantastic weekend and join us Monday
at four on The Dan Kapla Show.
