This is Dan Kaplis and welcome to today's online podcast
edition of The Dan Kaplis Show. Please be sure to
give us a five star rating if you'd be so kind,
and to subscribe, download and listen to the show every
single day on your favorite podcast platform. I'm better in
fighting for all that. On a beautiful summer Friday, Glad
you're here. Three or three seven, one, three, A two
(00:21):
five five of the number takes da and five seven
seven three and hard to believe could be snowing a
month from now and probably a little over a month
from now, but boy, enjoy this why we have it? Hey,
a lot to jump on big news Friday, right, I mean,
clearly there's a deal shaping up in the ongoing war
between Russia and Ukraine, and I want to get your
(00:43):
reaction to that. I know that's a little bit heavy
for a Friday, but you know, we go with the
flow of the breaking news. And obviously we've been talking
about Ukraine a lot over the years because you know,
this is just flat out evil, you know what Putin
has done to Ukraine. And yet at the same time
we have all these other issues come up, right, because
you have under Biden first of all, Biden's weakness allowed
(01:05):
Ukraine to happen, which is no excuse for Putin's just raw,
straight on hell evil. But then beyond that you have
Europe failing and Putin, you know, because evil can see
this praise on weakness. You know, Putin was able to
see Europe wasn't willing to put boots on the ground,
and so he couldn't.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
He knew that eventually he.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Could get what he wanted as long as he was
willing to kill enough Russians. And he was right because
he is Satan or satan like. And so that's where
we're at right now, as we're coming to the point
where as I've said all along, unless Europe was willing
to put boots on the ground, and there should never
be an American boot on the ground in Ukraine. But
unless Europe was willing to put boots on the ground
(01:46):
at least as a deterrence, then evil would end up winning.
Evil would end up gaining territory. And that's about to
happen in Ukraine. And it's sad that that's going to happen.
But don't blame Trump. Credit Trump, because Trump is cutting
the losses, you know, Blame Biden blame Europe for not
(02:07):
being willing to step up and confront Putin. I'm not
talking about World War three. I'm talking about peace through strength.
But it if someone is willing to be that evil
and they have the capacity to be well, then they
are going to be able to win as long as
good won't do what good needs to do. And I'm
talking about Europe, not the US. That was not the
(02:29):
US's fight. That was not the US's war. And the
US is right, you know, to support Ukraine financially, but
not a blank check forever without a strategy to win.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
And I know there are.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Legitimate gripes with Zelensky and I despise the way he
treated Trump in that Oval Office visit, but Putin the
evil aggressor, and a credit to the people of Ukraine
for standing up and fighting absolutely beyond heroically. And remember
it was Biden who wanted to get Zelenski out of town.
He wanted to get him a ride in the first
(03:03):
few days of the invasion, which essentially would have turned
the country over to Putin. So yeah, that appears to
be where we're headed there. I want to get your
take on it. Three oh three, seven to one three
eight two five five The number text d A N
five seven seven three nine. So bottom line for me is,
you know, Trump deserves credit here, not any blame for
the eventual gains putin will get. Trump has just cut
(03:26):
the losses in terms of precious human life, treasure, et cetera.
Because unless and until Europe was willing to put boots
on the ground, this is how it was going to end.
It was just a matter of how many people were
going to die in the process.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
So we'll talk about that again.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Sorry to get heavy on a Friday afternoon, but that
is some of the breaking news. And the other thing is,
I mean Trump has made news on them counting about
I mean, really significant news on four different fronts today,
and we'll get to some of the.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Rest of that.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
But I just want whatever he's having. And as far
I can tell Ryan, it's good jeans and diet coke.
Is that right, isn't isn't he like or is it
just the straight stuff coke? And it's ten of them,
twenty of them a day.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Well, you gotta remember this too. I think it is
good jeans.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Both of his parents live to be very old age,
and they were in relatively good health for both of
most of their lives.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
And yeah, he's just a machine.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Though, right, I mean, look at this guy.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
He's coming up on eighty. Yeah, he just turned seventy nine.
And compare him to the average seventy nine.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Year old man. No, he and then obviously compare him
to Biden. But it's fascinating to watch.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Now.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
A big part of it, right.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
It has to be I just will. It just has
to be mental toughness. I mean, he is certainly one
of the mentally toughest presidents We've ever had, one of
the mentally toughest people in public life in America. Now,
you've got a lot of incredibly mentally tough people who
just don't make it into the news. But in terms
(04:57):
of people in the news, yeah, I'd love to hear
from folks on among our presidents, who has been mentally
tougher than Trump? And I'm not saying nobody, but who
has been mentally tougher than Trump?
Speaker 2 (05:11):
It's fascinating. But what do you think his secret is?
Speaker 1 (05:15):
I think so much of it just has to come
from inside, right, it has to be his mindset, has
to be his determination, his will three or three someone
three eight two five five the number text d A
N five seven seven three nine. Can you imagine how
many trillions somebody's going to make? And it'll happen someday
when somebody's able to come up with that that pill, right,
(05:37):
that pill that that gives you like the energy of
coffee without the side effects, that gives you like this
this trump thing, you know, where he just keeps going
without any noticeable side effects. Yeah, so we'll talk about that. Well,
some fun stuff today too. Gutfeld On with Jimmy Fallon
(05:57):
last night. So I walk into this ball. I'm with
my friend Andy.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
We just got off shooting something. And I walk in
and I'm looking around. I go, what the hell have
I got into? And then I see you and you
look at me and you have your your eyes just
to kind of explode, and you run towards me and
you tackle me like you're like a giant Golden Retriever
and you're like on top of me.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
And so we're wrestling.
Speaker 6 (06:19):
We're wrestling, and then you change and you start wrestling
my buddy Andy, and you're wrestling him, and you guys
get on the ground. You guys are now on the
ground wrestling, and I like, so I pull out. Yes,
so I pull out a cigarette. I light a cigarette
and I'm smoking it and you stop and you come
over to me and you grab it and you crinkle
it and you go, these things will kill you.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
And you threw.
Speaker 6 (06:39):
It then, and I go, uh, I go, dude, I go,
I'm not rich.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
You're rich.
Speaker 6 (06:48):
I have to put that cigarettes are expensive in New
York City. I yell, and you just and all of
a sudden your face changed and you look sad.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
And then you left.
Speaker 6 (06:58):
And then five minutes later you come back with a fresh.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Pack of parliament and you'd hand them to me and.
Speaker 6 (07:04):
You go here, and I go, that was really sweet.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
You want me to die. I'm sorry I tackled you.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
It was great.
Speaker 6 (07:12):
It was all very good natured and it was a
great memory. And I'm so glad I finally got to
tell you about it.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
I'm so happy.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
Thank you, and welcome back talking to the show.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Thank you for tells this. I'm happy.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
That's a true story.
Speaker 6 (07:24):
It is no because you didn't remember it, and then
you remembered it.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
I do.
Speaker 6 (07:27):
I remember all the details you said are correct, so
I do.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
It definitely happened.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Absolutely.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I don't watch him, but this, Jimmy Fallon strikes me
as a good guy.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Do you ever watch that show?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
I mean, I'm sure are politics that everybody strikes me
as a good guy.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Yeah, and he's the least bad of the over the
air network late night shows. When you compare him to
Jimmy Kimmel or Stephen Colbert or Seth Myers, he seems
like an affable guy. I don't think I've ever heard
a bad word about him, you know, people that have
worked with them. And I think he wants to do
the right thing, Like when he musted up Donald Trump's hair.
That was a great television iconic moment and he should
have leaned into it. Instead, he apologized for it and
(08:03):
he should never have done that.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Oh you're so right about that.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
But no, he just yeah, and maybe he feels I mean,
because I think America does have this craving for just
a funny late night show. You know that, Hey, you
want it to be political because politics is part of life,
but just be even handed on it. Detexter to d
A n five seven, seven through nine, Dan and Ryan,
did you learn nothing from the Sydney Sweny American Eagle debacle?
(08:27):
Saying somebody as good jeans as racist, don't you know? Yeah,
I don't know that.
Speaker 8 (08:33):
Well.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
I'll say this now, when you say that that, hey,
one people had better jeans than another because of the
color of their skin, that'd be racist. But the Sydney swingey,
I didn't say that.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
No, And Dan Kaplis has good jeans because look at
this guy, this strapping young lady.
Speaker 8 (08:47):
That age.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Can I say it? No? Thank you though, And the
reason is, but I would like to talk about that, Ryan,
thank you. I'd like to talk about what age you're
frozen at, because everybody listening right now is frozen at
a certain age.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Internally they see themselves.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
We all do.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
We all see ourselves at a certain age. And I'd
love to know from you. And I'm going to start
with Ryan and Kelly when we come back at what
age are you frozen at? And why did you decide
to freeze there? And I know not on the outside.
The outside is just going to change as it changes, right,
I mean, there's only so much oil of ola in
the world, but the inside everybody's frozen three or three seven, one,
(09:29):
three eight, two five five the number and then the
other thing when we come back is just so much
as mindset in life right and and some of the
greatest mindset advice out there. We'll play for you when
we come back. You can text as well. DA N
five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
I miss this potentially I might, but yeah, yeah, probably probably.
It looks like President Trump is gone putin in Alaska
next Friday.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
So I'll have a little episode of ice road truckers
up there or what.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Boy, I'm not expecting that, my friend. But I don't
think this meeting is happening unless Trump thinks they're getting close.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
And I think.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
I don't think the meeting happens unless Trump feels as
if there's something there that in the end he could support. Yeah,
obviously it doesn't happen unless those pieces are falling into place.
So yeah, we open the show with it. We'll continue
to talk about it. At the moment, though, we're talking
about Hey, what age are you frozen at? Because you know,
it's true, every single person who's part of this conversation
(10:47):
now has decided to freeze themselves at a certain age
on the inside. Outside, Hey, you I only so much
you can do. But on the inside, what age are
you frozen at and why. We will start with lynn
in den Or Lanier on The Dancapitalist. She'll welcome Hi.
Speaker 9 (11:03):
Well, fun topic. This is going to be my birthday
month I call it. And I'm turning seventy two, and honestly,
I feel like I did when I was forty. I'm
stuck at forty in my mind, in my energy level,
and I just and that's when we moved back here
from southern California and I started calling your show actually
in that year.
Speaker 10 (11:23):
But I feel forty and.
Speaker 9 (11:25):
It's yeah, I'm sure I don't look well.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
You sound twenty five? Do you say you're going to
be seventy two?
Speaker 10 (11:33):
Yep?
Speaker 1 (11:33):
So you decided to freeze your voice at twenty five?
Speaker 9 (11:37):
Yeah, it's always been that.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
I still get.
Speaker 9 (11:39):
Is your mother there?
Speaker 2 (11:40):
I mean, yeah, well that's all right, and what do
you say?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
But now, why did you decide to freeze yourself at forty?
Speaker 9 (11:50):
Because that's I still feel about energy level.
Speaker 10 (11:53):
I still feel the shame.
Speaker 9 (11:54):
I still love to have fun, I still like the exercise.
I'm still I still want to stay up later when
we go out with friends, I usually am not ready
to quite go home yet, you know, I have a
sense of it's fun. My parents always said go have fun,
and I think I love to last.
Speaker 10 (12:13):
I love to be with people.
Speaker 9 (12:14):
And I just have that stamina and energy of when
I did when I was forty.
Speaker 10 (12:21):
I really feel like that.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Oh man, Lynn, what a great call to start this with,
because I do believe in Obviously there can be disease
and other things that can throw the equation off, but
vast majority of the time, I think so much of
it is what somebody decides, what.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
They commit to, what they believe.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
And Lynn decided, Hey, she was forty and on the outside, Okay,
she may be whatever she is, but she has decided
she is forty and she's living that way. I think
that is so much of life. Carle and Hyland's rancher
on the dan Kapla, She'll welcome.
Speaker 10 (12:52):
Hi, Dan. I just wanted to make a comment about
Greg gut Film. Personally, I didn't like his appearance last
night on The Tonight.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Show at all.
Speaker 10 (13:00):
Oh I am a fan. Now, what I want to
say is he's an acquired taste. But Greg Gutfels is
one of the most vocal pro life people you will
ever see on TV.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Good.
Speaker 10 (13:14):
He will take anybody down when it comes to abortion.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Good good, What did you not like last night?
Speaker 11 (13:21):
He came out as just like he was on something,
just too empted up, all this.
Speaker 10 (13:26):
Stuff all in like five minutes. I just didn't liking it.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Just that didn't happen to any of us, right, just
get too amped up.
Speaker 10 (13:33):
More importantly, he, like I said, is an acquired taste,
but he is.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Yeah, that's awesome, pro life, that's awesome. Now tell me
what age are you frozen at?
Speaker 10 (13:46):
I think like forty five?
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Okay? And are you forty six?
Speaker 7 (13:52):
No?
Speaker 10 (13:52):
I'm thirty four. No, I'm kidding care No.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
That's okay.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Well some people want to freeze later.
Speaker 10 (13:58):
I think forty five that's good age, okay, okay, Well yeah,
or are.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
You you know?
Speaker 1 (14:04):
I want to answer that after the break for a
tactical reason.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
I want to tease into it.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Not that anybody cares, but Carly, no, thank you for that,
Thank you for that. So we've got two in the
forties already, the first two three or three someone three, eight, two,
five five. If you disagree with the premise, then then okay, hey,
let's have that conversation. But I'm convinced one hundred percent
of all humans freeze themselves at a certain age, and
and that's the way.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
They're going to be.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Now, I will put a qualifier on it. I think
some people do make the mistake of just adopting their
chronological age and just assuming that that's the way it
has to go. And that segment of folks I just
I feel so sorry for because it doesn't have to
be that way. But what age did you decide to
freeze that?
Speaker 8 (14:48):
Why?
Speaker 1 (14:48):
And has it worked for you? Three h three someone
three A two five five. I'll get to some text
on this as well. Let's go to Jack and Cheyenne.
You're on the Dan Kaplo Show. Welcome Jack.
Speaker 7 (15:01):
Yeah, Danny, I keep thinking that myself mentally as still
being thirty five. But I've had to make an adjustment
on that because I don't have my balance anymore. I'm
eighty three.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
I fall down.
Speaker 7 (15:11):
I can't go up ladders. I mean, the difference is
night and day plus. When I was thirty five out
of thirty one inch waist, now I've got a thirty
five inch ways, which to me is like that may
not sound big to some people.
Speaker 12 (15:23):
For me, it was always been extremely thin.
Speaker 7 (15:25):
That's horrible at thirty five, In depends how funny way too.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
I just yeah, but has that worked for you?
Speaker 7 (15:31):
John, I'm five ten?
Speaker 4 (15:33):
I'm not sure it.
Speaker 7 (15:33):
I'm five ten.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Okay, okay? Has it worked for you to freeze at
thirty five? I mean, do you think you've been able
to stay thirty five mentally?
Speaker 5 (15:44):
Well?
Speaker 7 (15:44):
Yeah, I keep thinking I'm thirty five. But when I
fall down and my head hits the sidewalk, it's not
funny because I don't have a balance.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Oh man, that I thought you had people to carry you.
Speaker 7 (15:53):
Around, Well, I had to let them go because of
the economic elcuation.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
I don't have a manic right, Jack, appreciate the call
three or three se one three eight two five five.
I will answer that question when we come back about
where I froze. And I'd done it very decisively, very intentionally,
thought it through and have just committed to it. And
so I do believe it. I mean with every bone
(16:21):
in my body, fiber of my being, I do believe.
I am that age and I am outside. Nothing I
can do about that inside. Yeah, I am that age.
I'm gonna tell you anyway, because nobody cares. Forty I
froze at forty and I froze at forty because in
a lot of ways, that's when my life started. Now,
(16:45):
that's no disrespect whatsoever to everything that came before, which
has been a phenomenal blessing from day one, But that's
when we had our first child, and so that's a
whole different phase of life, right, so let me qualify it.
That's when the second phase of life started for me,
because everything that came before forty is just so mind
(17:07):
blowingly great. But yeah, that's when we had our first child.
So I froze there. And I'm just telling you to
bring in the stack about bringing in the polly. That
is what I am outside. You look at that and
laugh inside. Honestly, Ryan, and I want to hear from
(17:27):
Ryan when we come back. What did you freeze that?
And wine as it worked? But honestly, if anything, right now,
I feel better than I did at forty. I feel
sharper than I was at forty. I just believe we
can all do that as people, you know, borring some
disease beyond our control or anything else. So we've got
a lot more to talk about, including this upcoming summit
(17:48):
now between Putin and Trump. But Trump froze himself probably
at about forty.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
Two you're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Almost to the letter.
Speaker 13 (18:05):
What you wanted, He didn't mind the angry, He didn't
the conflict between the Republicans and the Democrats. What you
wanted was to make a border safe and secure, which
they've done.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
What you want to wear task cuts, which he's done.
Speaker 13 (18:19):
What you wanted was cuts to spending, which he's done
element after element.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
He delivered exactly what he said was going to do.
Speaker 13 (18:27):
And that's why his own voters believe that this has
been an incredibly successful presidency.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
Yeah, that's Frank Luntz, no fan of Trump, and I
bet a lot of voters beyond his own voters believe
that too. Just won't tell the pollsters three or three
seven one three eight two five five the number text
d an five seven seven three nine. Have we seen
a president get off to a better start? Hard to imagine, Right, Hey,
what's going on this afternoon? At What age have you
(18:54):
frozen yourself at? Because everybody does it right unless they
just make a huge mistake and just roll with their
chronological age, which would really be kind of like burning cash. Right, So,
what age have you frozen yourself at why and has
it worked? Textor Dan pastor friend told me once that
frozen age is how we will exist in heaven. For me,
(19:17):
I'm thinking somewhere between thirty five and forty.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Is that your view of heaven?
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Rhynd?
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Do you think there's a frozen age in heaven?
Speaker 1 (19:25):
And who decides it? I don't know.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
My view is that we enter a roum we cannot
comprehend or understand with our human minds.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
And is that off of AI or something?
Speaker 4 (19:37):
No, that's from my brain, like you know, because we
encounter our loved ones in heaven and if so, what
age would they be? Would they be in their prime?
And I just think we become a form that we
can't even tangibly explain it. And your answer is a
very very thoughtful one, and everybody has their own upression.
(19:57):
I would like to know from people you know, what
is your view of heaven? How do you think that works?
And isn't the Christian belief Dan, that our human form,
these bodies, they're merely a shell and they contain our
spirit which ascends to heaven. But that's different than the
human look and everything else.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Well, bro, and please don't treat me as the authority
in this, but I'm gonna double check. But my understanding
because there's this great series out there, Father Mike Schmid's
Catechism in a year and if I'm remembering that episode right,
If I'm remembering that episode right, no, I think at
least Catholic teaching is that we're reunited with our bodies.
But don't quote me on that, right. Let me look
(20:37):
that up during the break. So if you were if
that's the way it's going to work in heaven, and
you do have your body in heaven, then what age
would you want that body to be?
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Twenty seven the year I ran the Suzuki Rock and
Roll Marathon and San Diego, California, Prime of my life.
That's shape of my life. I tell you right now, Dan,
what age of I feel fit? I feel every bit
of my current age right now. I've got some bad problems,
you know.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
But I'm talking mentally, and I'm sorry if I wasn't
clear enough on that. But when I'm talking about where
people froze themselves, I'm talking mentally.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
There's only so much you can do about some of
the physical stuff.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
I think freezing yourself mentally at a certain age, as
long as it's realistic, not like six. I think that
that can affect the physical a lot too. That's a
good point.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
I think I'm pretty much the same person now that
I was about age thirty okay, thirty.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Okay, We're starting to see a little bit of a
pattern your eyes here, because for me, I froze at forty.
The two women who called Lynn was great to start
the show. She's seventy two, sounds twenty two. She froze
at forty five. Yeah, And to your point about, okay,
if we are reunited with our bodies in heaven, which
I do believe, but that's just me what age, And
(21:53):
I wonder if I got a little glimpse into that.
Because I've told the story on Aaron, I won't take
the time with it again now. But just after my
dad died, when Joe and I were staying at the
Trump Hotel in.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
DC, he was working out there.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
I flew out to spend a weekend with and watch
the NFL football playoff games. And when I woke up
in the middle of the night, Joe and I were
sharing a room and there was a figure in the room.
This was not a dream. I was wide awake. I
got up, I walked around, I walked toward it, and
it was my dad. But it was my dad. It
probably late twenties. And I just wonder if that's a
(22:30):
glimpse into you know, if we are reunited with our
bodies in heaven. Is was it that age for him?
And does that mean it's that age for all of us?
Or maybe different people are reunited with their bodies at
different ages depending on the person, which would make sense, right, Yeah,
God knows, right, Yeah, Dean and Arvada, you're on the
(22:52):
Dan Kaplis Show.
Speaker 11 (22:53):
Welcome, Hey, Dan Iroz at twenty seven?
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Why why did you choose twenty seven?
Speaker 11 (23:04):
That's what That's just a number that we came up
with when the kids were little. I was dead twenty
seven hold my kids at our older age. I do
have a comment though, that I wanted to ask, because
I mean, you're an expert this topic.
Speaker 12 (23:19):
This quorum thing down in Texas. Yeah, it's got to
be baffled. I mean, how is it they have to
hunt these guys down, bring them back into the into
the place to vote. I mean it sounds like a cartoon.
Speaker 7 (23:33):
There's no oh yeah, but.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
I mean, why did they yeah, yeah, no, it's it's fascinating.
Speaker 11 (23:40):
And so if they.
Speaker 12 (23:42):
Arrest them bringing back into the voting chambers, then that counts.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Well. I'm not sure what the grounds in the voting chambers.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
I'm not sure what the grounds for rest are.
Speaker 12 (23:55):
Well, I don't either. I don't know folk.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Yeah, the.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
Yeah, and I know that theory.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
Yeah, Dean, I know that theory with the FBI. Yeah, no,
it's wild. Thank you man for raising that. We haven't
touched on it yet. I don't claim to be an
expert on it, but I'm intrigued. And my understanding of
the theory under which federal law and the FBI would
get involved would be bribery would be that any people,
any organizations that are financially supporting these Texas Democrats so
(24:28):
they can flee the state to avoid democracy working.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
Right, That's this other beautiful thing, right, the Party of Democracies,
Save Democracy elected Democrat, right, and then they run away,
they flee the state so you can't vote the will
of the people.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
And then Colorado, Yeah, hey, save democracy. Throw Trump off
the bat.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
I mean, it's so looney, right, and that the Democrats
they just don't see it. So I think they're doing this.
The was a lot of harm in Texas in the meantime.
But anyway that the federal theory is bribery that anybody
putting money to fly them out or feed them while
they're out, or anything like that. If the intent is
so that they can't vote on this legislation, then you're
bribing a legislator to affect legislation. So it'll be interesting
(25:12):
to see if the Feds go down that road. I
think that the courts, if it becomes a legal issue,
in any kind of close legal question, I think the
courts are very very inclined to leave it to the
political process whenever possible. So I think that's probably where
this thing is going to end up as well. Do
these people just stay out of state forever or at
(25:36):
least to the end of the session, and then is
there a special session? So be kind of fun to
watch that one throughout three someone three eight two five
five the number techst d A N five seven seven
three nine.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Huge props to Ryan on the five for fighting tune.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
He never fails to make the right pull, boy, that
is that is for sure. Nobody has ever been able
to do it about the way Ryan does. I mean
it's just remarkable.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
It's funny. I was thinking that last night.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Is there any other way to monetize this, any other
way to take advantage of this unique skill?
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Well, you do any DJ?
Speaker 4 (26:13):
I was gonna say, I could be like Robbie from
the Wedding Singer and just DJ weddings and bar mitzvahs
and stuff.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
That would be a blast.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Do you do any of that?
Speaker 2 (26:21):
I could? I think I'd enjoy it. Oh my lord, see.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
You you would probably be like a billionaire overnight because
because you would have the ability then to do some
different things, right, Like somebody could just shout out something
about the bride or groom and you'd match it to
a song. But Bingle, you'd be a heck of a DJ.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
I've always thought that would be a blast.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
It's a cool job.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Yeah, nobody would want me as their DJ, but you.
They would want you. They would want I'm for hire. Yeah,
well do you have the equipment and all that?
Speaker 3 (26:54):
Well, I had to invest in that, that's true.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
I remember a buddy of mine I want to use
his name, but he's probably listening.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
When we were in college.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
He invested in all that DJ stuff and everything else
that was going to be his gig, and so we're
just sitting around watching a game one afternoon, and all
of a sudden the phone rings and it's somebody panicked.
He was supposed to be at a wedding. He spaced it.
I shouldn't even laugh. Can you imagine being at your
wedding and the DJ doesn't show up. Yeah, that was
(27:24):
probably the end of my career in the Colorado Democratic
Party when my job and I was like nineteen or
twenty back. Obviously, when I was a Democrat, I wasn't
trying to sabotage him. But my job was to get
all the drinks for the Fourth of July picnic up
in Boulder Canyon, and it had to be one hundred
degrees that day, and I completely spaced it. Sign Boulder
(27:49):
Democratic Party picnic on one hundred degree day with no
drinks because of me. Maybe it was meant to be.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
You're on the Dan Caplish and now back to the
Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 8 (28:09):
I think a lot of people would not be surprised
if Gallaine Maxwell, who is seeking better treatment in prison,
which she's already received, who is seeking release, who's who's
trying to get off the hook, perhaps with a pardon
from President Trump. I don't think anyone would be surprised
(28:32):
if she told the president's emissary that, oh, no, there's
no problem with Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Now, yes so, MSNBC Eugene Robinson talking about Trump administration
now seeing they may just release the tapes of the
nine hours of interviews with Ghlaine Maxwell, do you think
they should do that? Three or three seven one three
A two five five the number techs d A N
five seven seventh through nine. Big news of the day
is there's going to be a summit between Trump and
(28:58):
Putin in Alaska a week from today, and does so.
Clearly the outlines of a deal have taken shape, and
it would involve Putin keeping some territory in eastern Ukraine.
And so would you support a deal like that? And
we can get into the particulars, but that's the gist
of it. Would you support ending the war that way?
(29:20):
Three O three seven to one three A two five
five text d A N five seven seven three. Now
we're talking about what age you decided to freeze yourself at.
Because everybody has done it right, and I do I
feel bad for those who don't right or just decide
they're going to roll with their chronological age because like
why right, I mean, and the outside, Yeah, there's only
(29:41):
so much who can do the inside?
Speaker 11 (29:43):
No.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
I think once a person just decides they are ex
age and they convince themselves of that and they do
everything they can to function at that level, then I
think it often works, or works a lot better I
would than just, you know, floating down the stream into
oblivion someone three eight two five five, Sorry to see
shooting at Emory University. We don't have much word at
(30:05):
this point other than the shooter dead, but just a
good reminder that that the next one's coming, right, The
next one's always coming. And so the big question is
are we going to have a good guy or gail
with a gun there or just leave the innocent to
the quote mercy of the monster. So the Democrats will
answer that question, meaning the left that controls the party
(30:25):
will answer that question in favor of the monster virtually
every time, unless it's a Lefty themselves in public office,
and they'll have the taxpayers pay for a whole bunch
of guns. Dan, great question. I totally melt it down
when turning thirty. Who melts down when they turned thirty.
Speaker 4 (30:44):
My dad did, I'll tell you this, thirty. He told
me this. He and my mom reinforced that him turning
thirty was far more difficult and depressing for him than
turning forty.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Why.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
And I remember his fortieth birthday. I remember my dad.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
I think he just felt like his youth was over.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
And what.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
Wasn't it his generation? Right, so a little bit older
than you.
Speaker 4 (31:05):
But the boomers, the ones that were like Vietnam War protesters,
don't trust anybody over thirty?
Speaker 11 (31:11):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (31:11):
Right, wasn't that the same?
Speaker 1 (31:14):
That is?
Speaker 3 (31:14):
Sorry, that might have had something to.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
Do with it, but you know, I mean, the funny
thing is, I was thinking the other day. My wife,
I think was twenty seven when we got married. Yeah,
Joe's twenty seven now, you know. And I thought of
her as an incredibly beautiful young woman at the time,
But I didn't think of her as twenty seven. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (31:35):
Now, that's the age my dad was when I was born.
I'm there first. My mom was twenty six.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
Wow. So this texter, Yeah, this texter melts down when
he turns thirty and then he.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Get in forty.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Now, I look back and think those were the days,
so probably early thirties, in my flourishing television production career,
met my husband, and, like you, experienced the life changing
event of having a child. That is where I've often
felt frozen, but sadly feeling older lately. Yeah, but is
that mentally or physically, because on the physical side you
(32:09):
do everything you can, right, but some things are of
your control. Mentally, yeah, mentally unless somebody's diseased, right, I mean,
you know, God forbid somebody gets Alzheimer's or whatever. I
think we can very effectively freeze like that. It's so
we see a pattern, right, almost everybody coming in at
this point, right around forty this one, early thirties, this
(32:33):
nice lady early thirties, Dan.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
With the Democratic.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
Not well phrased equivalent of jury members leaving the state
could not pass a verdict that they disagree with. Yeah, well,
that's that's true in what's happening in Texas. I don't
think it's making the Democrats look good, and I don't
think it's going to work long term, but it does.
And I'm not going to do this on a Friday
afternoon with people driving because eyes will glaze over and
(33:00):
people to drive into telephone polls if they don't turn
us off first. But this whole redistricting thing is really interesting,
and the Democrats have abused it all across the country,
and one of these days where we're going to spend
some more time on it if we can figure out
an interesting way to do it.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
But there are really good arguments, a.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
Lot of good data out there that the GOP should
have a whole lot more seats in Congress if not
for the combination of Gerrymander districts, and of course the
GOP has done some of that, but also this insanity
of having folks here illegally affecting our congressional districts.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
I what's the logic behind that? Right, So if you have.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
More folks here illegally, your party gets more congressional to say, well,
nothing could go wrong there, right, I mean, that's just crazy.
And I haven't researched this, like sat down legally in
research Showa would take.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
But that's got a change. I mean, that.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
Makes no sense whatsoever, talk about a backwards incentive. So hey,
we're gonna have a lot of fun in the five.
I'm going to play some really cool sound from an
NFL star being inducted in New Hall of Fame a
couple of weeks ago and what he said to his
wife when he was inducted. I think you'll find that
really cool. This topic we're talking about, what age did
(34:21):
you freeze yourself out? Will continue that, but also Tony
Robbins on that, who I think just absolutely nailed it.
You're on the Dan Kapla Show.
This is Dan Kaplis and welcome to today's online podcast
edition of The Dan Kaplis Show. Please be sure to
give us a five star rating if you'd be so kind,
and to subscribe, download and listen to the show every
single day on your favorite podcast platform. I'm better in
fighting for all that. On a beautiful summer Friday, Glad
you're here. Three or three seven, one, three, A two
(00:21):
five five of the number takes da and five seven
seven three and hard to believe could be snowing a
month from now and probably a little over a month
from now, but boy, enjoy this why we have it? Hey,
a lot to jump on big news Friday, right, I mean,
clearly there's a deal shaping up in the ongoing war
between Russia and Ukraine, and I want to get your
(00:43):
reaction to that. I know that's a little bit heavy
for a Friday, but you know, we go with the
flow of the breaking news. And obviously we've been talking
about Ukraine a lot over the years because you know,
this is just flat out evil, you know what Putin
has done to Ukraine. And yet at the same time
we have all these other issues come up, right, because
you have under Biden first of all, Biden's weakness allowed
(01:05):
Ukraine to happen, which is no excuse for Putin's just raw,
straight on hell evil. But then beyond that you have
Europe failing and Putin, you know, because evil can see
this praise on weakness. You know, Putin was able to
see Europe wasn't willing to put boots on the ground,
and so he couldn't.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
He knew that eventually he.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Could get what he wanted as long as he was
willing to kill enough Russians. And he was right because
he is Satan or satan like. And so that's where
we're at right now, as we're coming to the point
where as I've said all along, unless Europe was willing
to put boots on the ground, and there should never
be an American boot on the ground in Ukraine. But
unless Europe was willing to put boots on the ground
(01:46):
at least as a deterrence, then evil would end up winning.
Evil would end up gaining territory. And that's about to
happen in Ukraine. And it's sad that that's going to happen.
But don't blame Trump. Credit Trump, because Trump is cutting
the losses, you know, Blame Biden blame Europe for not
(02:07):
being willing to step up and confront Putin. I'm not
talking about World War three. I'm talking about peace through strength.
But it if someone is willing to be that evil
and they have the capacity to be well, then they
are going to be able to win as long as
good won't do what good needs to do. And I'm
talking about Europe, not the US. That was not the
(02:29):
US's fight. That was not the US's war. And the
US is right, you know, to support Ukraine financially, but
not a blank check forever without a strategy to win.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
And I know there are.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Legitimate gripes with Zelensky and I despise the way he
treated Trump in that Oval Office visit, but Putin the
evil aggressor, and a credit to the people of Ukraine
for standing up and fighting absolutely beyond heroically. And remember
it was Biden who wanted to get Zelenski out of town.
He wanted to get him a ride in the first
(03:03):
few days of the invasion, which essentially would have turned
the country over to Putin. So yeah, that appears to
be where we're headed there. I want to get your
take on it. Three oh three, seven to one three
eight two five five The number text d A N
five seven seven three nine. So bottom line for me is,
you know, Trump deserves credit here, not any blame for
the eventual gains putin will get. Trump has just cut
(03:26):
the losses in terms of precious human life, treasure, et cetera.
Because unless and until Europe was willing to put boots
on the ground, this is how it was going to end.
It was just a matter of how many people were
going to die in the process.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
So we'll talk about that again.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Sorry to get heavy on a Friday afternoon, but that
is some of the breaking news. And the other thing is,
I mean Trump has made news on them counting about
I mean, really significant news on four different fronts today,
and we'll get to some of the.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Rest of that.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
But I just want whatever he's having. And as far
I can tell Ryan, it's good jeans and diet coke.
Is that right, isn't isn't he like or is it
just the straight stuff coke? And it's ten of them,
twenty of them a day.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Well, you gotta remember this too. I think it is
good jeans.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Both of his parents live to be very old age,
and they were in relatively good health for both of
most of their lives.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
And yeah, he's just a machine.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Though, right, I mean, look at this guy.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
He's coming up on eighty. Yeah, he just turned seventy nine.
And compare him to the average seventy nine.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Year old man. No, he and then obviously compare him
to Biden. But it's fascinating to watch.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Now.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
A big part of it, right.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
It has to be I just will. It just has
to be mental toughness. I mean, he is certainly one
of the mentally toughest presidents We've ever had, one of
the mentally toughest people in public life in America. Now,
you've got a lot of incredibly mentally tough people who
just don't make it into the news. But in terms
(04:57):
of people in the news, yeah, I'd love to hear
from folks on among our presidents, who has been mentally
tougher than Trump? And I'm not saying nobody, but who
has been mentally tougher than Trump?
Speaker 2 (05:11):
It's fascinating. But what do you think his secret is?
Speaker 1 (05:15):
I think so much of it just has to come
from inside, right, it has to be his mindset, has
to be his determination, his will three or three someone
three eight two five five the number text d A
N five seven seven three nine. Can you imagine how
many trillions somebody's going to make? And it'll happen someday
when somebody's able to come up with that that pill, right,
(05:37):
that pill that that gives you like the energy of
coffee without the side effects, that gives you like this
this trump thing, you know, where he just keeps going
without any noticeable side effects. Yeah, so we'll talk about that. Well,
some fun stuff today too. Gutfeld On with Jimmy Fallon
(05:57):
last night. So I walk into this ball. I'm with
my friend Andy.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
We just got off shooting something. And I walk in
and I'm looking around. I go, what the hell have
I got into? And then I see you and you
look at me and you have your your eyes just
to kind of explode, and you run towards me and
you tackle me like you're like a giant Golden Retriever
and you're like on top of me.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
And so we're wrestling.
Speaker 6 (06:19):
We're wrestling, and then you change and you start wrestling
my buddy Andy, and you're wrestling him, and you guys
get on the ground. You guys are now on the
ground wrestling, and I like, so I pull out. Yes,
so I pull out a cigarette. I light a cigarette
and I'm smoking it and you stop and you come
over to me and you grab it and you crinkle
it and you go, these things will kill you.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
And you threw.
Speaker 6 (06:39):
It then, and I go, uh, I go, dude, I go,
I'm not rich.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
You're rich.
Speaker 6 (06:48):
I have to put that cigarettes are expensive in New
York City. I yell, and you just and all of
a sudden your face changed and you look sad.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
And then you left.
Speaker 6 (06:58):
And then five minutes later you come back with a fresh.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Pack of parliament and you'd hand them to me and.
Speaker 6 (07:04):
You go here, and I go, that was really sweet.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
You want me to die. I'm sorry I tackled you.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
It was great.
Speaker 6 (07:12):
It was all very good natured and it was a
great memory. And I'm so glad I finally got to
tell you about it.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
I'm so happy.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
Thank you, and welcome back talking to the show.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
Thank you for tells this. I'm happy.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
That's a true story.
Speaker 6 (07:24):
It is no because you didn't remember it, and then
you remembered it.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
I do.
Speaker 6 (07:27):
I remember all the details you said are correct, so
I do.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
It definitely happened.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Absolutely.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I don't watch him, but this, Jimmy Fallon strikes me
as a good guy.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Do you ever watch that show?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
I mean, I'm sure are politics that everybody strikes me
as a good guy.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Yeah, and he's the least bad of the over the
air network late night shows. When you compare him to
Jimmy Kimmel or Stephen Colbert or Seth Myers, he seems
like an affable guy. I don't think I've ever heard
a bad word about him, you know, people that have
worked with them. And I think he wants to do
the right thing, Like when he musted up Donald Trump's hair.
That was a great television iconic moment and he should
have leaned into it. Instead, he apologized for it and
(08:03):
he should never have done that.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Oh you're so right about that.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
But no, he just yeah, and maybe he feels I mean,
because I think America does have this craving for just
a funny late night show. You know that, Hey, you
want it to be political because politics is part of life,
but just be even handed on it. Detexter to d
A n five seven, seven through nine, Dan and Ryan,
did you learn nothing from the Sydney Sweny American Eagle debacle?
(08:27):
Saying somebody as good jeans as racist, don't you know? Yeah,
I don't know that.
Speaker 8 (08:33):
Well.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
I'll say this now, when you say that that, hey,
one people had better jeans than another because of the
color of their skin, that'd be racist. But the Sydney swingey,
I didn't say that.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
No, And Dan Kaplis has good jeans because look at
this guy, this strapping young lady.
Speaker 8 (08:47):
That age.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Can I say it? No? Thank you though, And the
reason is, but I would like to talk about that, Ryan,
thank you. I'd like to talk about what age you're
frozen at, because everybody listening right now is frozen at
a certain age.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Internally they see themselves.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
We all do.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
We all see ourselves at a certain age. And I'd
love to know from you. And I'm going to start
with Ryan and Kelly when we come back at what
age are you frozen at? And why did you decide
to freeze there? And I know not on the outside.
The outside is just going to change as it changes, right,
I mean, there's only so much oil of ola in
the world, but the inside everybody's frozen three or three seven, one,
(09:29):
three eight, two five five the number and then the
other thing when we come back is just so much
as mindset in life right and and some of the
greatest mindset advice out there. We'll play for you when
we come back. You can text as well. DA N
five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
I miss this potentially I might, but yeah, yeah, probably probably.
It looks like President Trump is gone putin in Alaska
next Friday.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
So I'll have a little episode of ice road truckers
up there or what.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Boy, I'm not expecting that, my friend. But I don't
think this meeting is happening unless Trump thinks they're getting close.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
And I think.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
I don't think the meeting happens unless Trump feels as
if there's something there that in the end he could support. Yeah,
obviously it doesn't happen unless those pieces are falling into place.
So yeah, we open the show with it. We'll continue
to talk about it. At the moment, though, we're talking
about Hey, what age are you frozen at? Because you know,
it's true, every single person who's part of this conversation
(10:47):
now has decided to freeze themselves at a certain age
on the inside. Outside, Hey, you I only so much
you can do. But on the inside, what age are
you frozen at and why. We will start with lynn
in den Or Lanier on The Dancapitalist. She'll welcome Hi.
Speaker 9 (11:03):
Well, fun topic. This is going to be my birthday
month I call it. And I'm turning seventy two, and honestly,
I feel like I did when I was forty. I'm
stuck at forty in my mind, in my energy level,
and I just and that's when we moved back here
from southern California and I started calling your show actually
in that year.
Speaker 10 (11:23):
But I feel forty and.
Speaker 9 (11:25):
It's yeah, I'm sure I don't look well.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
You sound twenty five? Do you say you're going to
be seventy two?
Speaker 10 (11:33):
Yep?
Speaker 1 (11:33):
So you decided to freeze your voice at twenty five?
Speaker 9 (11:37):
Yeah, it's always been that.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
I still get.
Speaker 9 (11:39):
Is your mother there?
Speaker 2 (11:40):
I mean, yeah, well that's all right, and what do
you say?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
But now, why did you decide to freeze yourself at forty?
Speaker 9 (11:50):
Because that's I still feel about energy level.
Speaker 10 (11:53):
I still feel the shame.
Speaker 9 (11:54):
I still love to have fun, I still like the exercise.
I'm still I still want to stay up later when
we go out with friends, I usually am not ready
to quite go home yet, you know, I have a
sense of it's fun. My parents always said go have fun,
and I think I love to last.
Speaker 10 (12:13):
I love to be with people.
Speaker 9 (12:14):
And I just have that stamina and energy of when
I did when I was forty.
Speaker 10 (12:21):
I really feel like that.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Oh man, Lynn, what a great call to start this with,
because I do believe in Obviously there can be disease
and other things that can throw the equation off, but
vast majority of the time, I think so much of
it is what somebody decides, what.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
They commit to, what they believe.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
And Lynn decided, Hey, she was forty and on the outside, Okay,
she may be whatever she is, but she has decided
she is forty and she's living that way. I think
that is so much of life. Carle and Hyland's rancher
on the dan Kapla, She'll welcome.
Speaker 10 (12:52):
Hi, Dan. I just wanted to make a comment about
Greg gut Film. Personally, I didn't like his appearance last
night on The Tonight.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Show at all.
Speaker 10 (13:00):
Oh I am a fan. Now, what I want to
say is he's an acquired taste. But Greg Gutfels is
one of the most vocal pro life people you will
ever see on TV.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Good.
Speaker 10 (13:14):
He will take anybody down when it comes to abortion.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Good good, What did you not like last night?
Speaker 11 (13:21):
He came out as just like he was on something,
just too empted up, all this.
Speaker 10 (13:26):
Stuff all in like five minutes. I just didn't liking it.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Just that didn't happen to any of us, right, just
get too amped up.
Speaker 10 (13:33):
More importantly, he, like I said, is an acquired taste,
but he is.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Yeah, that's awesome, pro life, that's awesome. Now tell me
what age are you frozen at?
Speaker 10 (13:46):
I think like forty five?
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Okay? And are you forty six?
Speaker 7 (13:52):
No?
Speaker 10 (13:52):
I'm thirty four. No, I'm kidding care No.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
That's okay.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Well some people want to freeze later.
Speaker 10 (13:58):
I think forty five that's good age, okay, okay, Well yeah,
or are.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
You you know?
Speaker 1 (14:04):
I want to answer that after the break for a
tactical reason.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
I want to tease into it.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Not that anybody cares, but Carly, no, thank you for that,
Thank you for that. So we've got two in the
forties already, the first two three or three someone three, eight, two,
five five. If you disagree with the premise, then then okay, hey,
let's have that conversation. But I'm convinced one hundred percent
of all humans freeze themselves at a certain age, and
and that's the way.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
They're going to be.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Now, I will put a qualifier on it. I think
some people do make the mistake of just adopting their
chronological age and just assuming that that's the way it
has to go. And that segment of folks I just
I feel so sorry for because it doesn't have to
be that way. But what age did you decide to
freeze that?
Speaker 8 (14:48):
Why?
Speaker 1 (14:48):
And has it worked for you? Three h three someone
three A two five five. I'll get to some text
on this as well. Let's go to Jack and Cheyenne.
You're on the Dan Kaplo Show. Welcome Jack.
Speaker 7 (15:01):
Yeah, Danny, I keep thinking that myself mentally as still
being thirty five. But I've had to make an adjustment
on that because I don't have my balance anymore. I'm
eighty three.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
I fall down.
Speaker 7 (15:11):
I can't go up ladders. I mean, the difference is
night and day plus. When I was thirty five out
of thirty one inch waist, now I've got a thirty
five inch ways, which to me is like that may
not sound big to some people.
Speaker 12 (15:23):
For me, it was always been extremely thin.
Speaker 7 (15:25):
That's horrible at thirty five, In depends how funny way too.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
I just yeah, but has that worked for you?
Speaker 7 (15:31):
John, I'm five ten?
Speaker 4 (15:33):
I'm not sure it.
Speaker 7 (15:33):
I'm five ten.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Okay, okay? Has it worked for you to freeze at
thirty five? I mean, do you think you've been able
to stay thirty five mentally?
Speaker 5 (15:44):
Well?
Speaker 7 (15:44):
Yeah, I keep thinking I'm thirty five. But when I
fall down and my head hits the sidewalk, it's not
funny because I don't have a balance.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Oh man, that I thought you had people to carry you.
Speaker 7 (15:53):
Around, Well, I had to let them go because of
the economic elcuation.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
I don't have a manic right, Jack, appreciate the call
three or three se one three eight two five five.
I will answer that question when we come back about
where I froze. And I'd done it very decisively, very intentionally,
thought it through and have just committed to it. And
so I do believe it. I mean with every bone
(16:21):
in my body, fiber of my being, I do believe.
I am that age and I am outside. Nothing I
can do about that inside. Yeah, I am that age.
I'm gonna tell you anyway, because nobody cares. Forty I
froze at forty and I froze at forty because in
a lot of ways, that's when my life started. Now,
(16:45):
that's no disrespect whatsoever to everything that came before, which
has been a phenomenal blessing from day one, But that's
when we had our first child, and so that's a
whole different phase of life, right, so let me qualify it.
That's when the second phase of life started for me,
because everything that came before forty is just so mind
(17:07):
blowingly great. But yeah, that's when we had our first child.
So I froze there. And I'm just telling you to
bring in the stack about bringing in the polly. That
is what I am outside. You look at that and
laugh inside. Honestly, Ryan, and I want to hear from
(17:27):
Ryan when we come back. What did you freeze that?
And wine as it worked? But honestly, if anything, right now,
I feel better than I did at forty. I feel
sharper than I was at forty. I just believe we
can all do that as people, you know, borring some
disease beyond our control or anything else. So we've got
a lot more to talk about, including this upcoming summit
(17:48):
now between Putin and Trump. But Trump froze himself probably
at about forty.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
Two you're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Almost to the letter.
Speaker 13 (18:05):
What you wanted, He didn't mind the angry, He didn't
the conflict between the Republicans and the Democrats. What you
wanted was to make a border safe and secure, which
they've done.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
What you want to wear task cuts, which he's done.
Speaker 13 (18:19):
What you wanted was cuts to spending, which he's done
element after element.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
He delivered exactly what he said was going to do.
Speaker 13 (18:27):
And that's why his own voters believe that this has
been an incredibly successful presidency.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
Yeah, that's Frank Luntz, no fan of Trump, and I
bet a lot of voters beyond his own voters believe
that too. Just won't tell the pollsters three or three
seven one three eight two five five the number text
d an five seven seven three nine. Have we seen
a president get off to a better start? Hard to imagine, Right, Hey,
what's going on this afternoon? At What age have you
(18:54):
frozen yourself at? Because everybody does it right unless they
just make a huge mistake and just roll with their
chronological age, which would really be kind of like burning cash. Right, So,
what age have you frozen yourself at why and has
it worked? Textor Dan pastor friend told me once that
frozen age is how we will exist in heaven. For me,
(19:17):
I'm thinking somewhere between thirty five and forty.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Is that your view of heaven?
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Rhynd?
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Do you think there's a frozen age in heaven?
Speaker 1 (19:25):
And who decides it? I don't know.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
My view is that we enter a roum we cannot
comprehend or understand with our human minds.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
And is that off of AI or something?
Speaker 4 (19:37):
No, that's from my brain, like you know, because we
encounter our loved ones in heaven and if so, what
age would they be? Would they be in their prime?
And I just think we become a form that we
can't even tangibly explain it. And your answer is a
very very thoughtful one, and everybody has their own upression.
(19:57):
I would like to know from people you know, what
is your view of heaven? How do you think that works?
And isn't the Christian belief Dan, that our human form,
these bodies, they're merely a shell and they contain our
spirit which ascends to heaven. But that's different than the
human look and everything else.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Well, bro, and please don't treat me as the authority
in this, but I'm gonna double check. But my understanding
because there's this great series out there, Father Mike Schmid's
Catechism in a year and if I'm remembering that episode right,
If I'm remembering that episode right, no, I think at
least Catholic teaching is that we're reunited with our bodies.
But don't quote me on that, right. Let me look
(20:37):
that up during the break. So if you were if
that's the way it's going to work in heaven, and
you do have your body in heaven, then what age
would you want that body to be?
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Twenty seven the year I ran the Suzuki Rock and
Roll Marathon and San Diego, California, Prime of my life.
That's shape of my life. I tell you right now, Dan,
what age of I feel fit? I feel every bit
of my current age right now. I've got some bad problems,
you know.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
But I'm talking mentally, and I'm sorry if I wasn't
clear enough on that. But when I'm talking about where
people froze themselves, I'm talking mentally.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
There's only so much you can do about some of
the physical stuff.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
I think freezing yourself mentally at a certain age, as
long as it's realistic, not like six. I think that
that can affect the physical a lot too. That's a
good point.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
I think I'm pretty much the same person now that
I was about age thirty okay, thirty.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Okay, We're starting to see a little bit of a
pattern your eyes here, because for me, I froze at forty.
The two women who called Lynn was great to start
the show. She's seventy two, sounds twenty two. She froze
at forty five. Yeah, And to your point about, okay,
if we are reunited with our bodies in heaven, which
I do believe, but that's just me what age, And
(21:53):
I wonder if I got a little glimpse into that.
Because I've told the story on Aaron, I won't take
the time with it again now. But just after my
dad died, when Joe and I were staying at the
Trump Hotel in.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
DC, he was working out there.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
I flew out to spend a weekend with and watch
the NFL football playoff games. And when I woke up
in the middle of the night, Joe and I were
sharing a room and there was a figure in the room.
This was not a dream. I was wide awake. I
got up, I walked around, I walked toward it, and
it was my dad. But it was my dad. It
probably late twenties. And I just wonder if that's a
(22:30):
glimpse into you know, if we are reunited with our
bodies in heaven. Is was it that age for him?
And does that mean it's that age for all of us?
Or maybe different people are reunited with their bodies at
different ages depending on the person, which would make sense, right, Yeah,
God knows, right, Yeah, Dean and Arvada, you're on the
(22:52):
Dan Kaplis Show.
Speaker 11 (22:53):
Welcome, Hey, Dan Iroz at twenty seven?
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Why why did you choose twenty seven?
Speaker 11 (23:04):
That's what That's just a number that we came up
with when the kids were little. I was dead twenty
seven hold my kids at our older age. I do
have a comment though, that I wanted to ask, because
I mean, you're an expert this topic.
Speaker 12 (23:19):
This quorum thing down in Texas. Yeah, it's got to
be baffled. I mean, how is it they have to
hunt these guys down, bring them back into the into
the place to vote. I mean it sounds like a cartoon.
Speaker 7 (23:33):
There's no oh yeah, but.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
I mean, why did they yeah, yeah, no, it's it's fascinating.
Speaker 11 (23:40):
And so if they.
Speaker 12 (23:42):
Arrest them bringing back into the voting chambers, then that counts.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Well. I'm not sure what the grounds in the voting chambers.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
I'm not sure what the grounds for rest are.
Speaker 12 (23:55):
Well, I don't either. I don't know folk.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Yeah, the.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
Yeah, and I know that theory.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
Yeah, Dean, I know that theory with the FBI. Yeah, no,
it's wild. Thank you man for raising that. We haven't
touched on it yet. I don't claim to be an
expert on it, but I'm intrigued. And my understanding of
the theory under which federal law and the FBI would
get involved would be bribery would be that any people,
any organizations that are financially supporting these Texas Democrats so
(24:28):
they can flee the state to avoid democracy working.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
Right, That's this other beautiful thing, right, the Party of Democracies,
Save Democracy elected Democrat, right, and then they run away,
they flee the state so you can't vote the will
of the people.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
And then Colorado, Yeah, hey, save democracy. Throw Trump off
the bat.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
I mean, it's so looney, right, and that the Democrats
they just don't see it. So I think they're doing this.
The was a lot of harm in Texas in the meantime.
But anyway that the federal theory is bribery that anybody
putting money to fly them out or feed them while
they're out, or anything like that. If the intent is
so that they can't vote on this legislation, then you're
bribing a legislator to affect legislation. So it'll be interesting
(25:12):
to see if the Feds go down that road. I
think that the courts, if it becomes a legal issue,
in any kind of close legal question, I think the
courts are very very inclined to leave it to the
political process whenever possible. So I think that's probably where
this thing is going to end up as well. Do
these people just stay out of state forever or at
(25:36):
least to the end of the session, and then is
there a special session? So be kind of fun to
watch that one throughout three someone three eight two five
five the number techst d A N five seven seven
three nine.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Huge props to Ryan on the five for fighting tune.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
He never fails to make the right pull, boy, that
is that is for sure. Nobody has ever been able
to do it about the way Ryan does. I mean
it's just remarkable.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
It's funny. I was thinking that last night.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Is there any other way to monetize this, any other
way to take advantage of this unique skill?
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Well, you do any DJ?
Speaker 4 (26:13):
I was gonna say, I could be like Robbie from
the Wedding Singer and just DJ weddings and bar mitzvahs
and stuff.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
That would be a blast.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Do you do any of that?
Speaker 2 (26:21):
I could? I think I'd enjoy it. Oh my lord, see.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
You you would probably be like a billionaire overnight because
because you would have the ability then to do some
different things, right, Like somebody could just shout out something
about the bride or groom and you'd match it to
a song. But Bingle, you'd be a heck of a DJ.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
I've always thought that would be a blast.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
It's a cool job.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Yeah, nobody would want me as their DJ, but you.
They would want you. They would want I'm for hire. Yeah,
well do you have the equipment and all that?
Speaker 3 (26:54):
Well, I had to invest in that, that's true.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
I remember a buddy of mine I want to use
his name, but he's probably listening.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
When we were in college.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
He invested in all that DJ stuff and everything else
that was going to be his gig, and so we're
just sitting around watching a game one afternoon, and all
of a sudden the phone rings and it's somebody panicked.
He was supposed to be at a wedding. He spaced it.
I shouldn't even laugh. Can you imagine being at your
wedding and the DJ doesn't show up. Yeah, that was
(27:24):
probably the end of my career in the Colorado Democratic
Party when my job and I was like nineteen or
twenty back. Obviously, when I was a Democrat, I wasn't
trying to sabotage him. But my job was to get
all the drinks for the Fourth of July picnic up
in Boulder Canyon, and it had to be one hundred
degrees that day, and I completely spaced it. Sign Boulder
(27:49):
Democratic Party picnic on one hundred degree day with no
drinks because of me. Maybe it was meant to be.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
You're on the Dan Caplish and now back to the
Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 8 (28:09):
I think a lot of people would not be surprised
if Gallaine Maxwell, who is seeking better treatment in prison,
which she's already received, who is seeking release, who's who's
trying to get off the hook, perhaps with a pardon
from President Trump. I don't think anyone would be surprised
(28:32):
if she told the president's emissary that, oh, no, there's
no problem with Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Now, yes so, MSNBC Eugene Robinson talking about Trump administration
now seeing they may just release the tapes of the
nine hours of interviews with Ghlaine Maxwell, do you think
they should do that? Three or three seven one three
A two five five the number techs d A N
five seven seventh through nine. Big news of the day
is there's going to be a summit between Trump and
(28:58):
Putin in Alaska a week from today, and does so.
Clearly the outlines of a deal have taken shape, and
it would involve Putin keeping some territory in eastern Ukraine.
And so would you support a deal like that? And
we can get into the particulars, but that's the gist
of it. Would you support ending the war that way?
(29:20):
Three O three seven to one three A two five
five text d A N five seven seven three. Now
we're talking about what age you decided to freeze yourself at.
Because everybody has done it right, and I do I
feel bad for those who don't right or just decide
they're going to roll with their chronological age because like
why right, I mean, and the outside, Yeah, there's only
(29:41):
so much who can do the inside?
Speaker 11 (29:43):
No.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
I think once a person just decides they are ex
age and they convince themselves of that and they do
everything they can to function at that level, then I
think it often works, or works a lot better I
would than just, you know, floating down the stream into
oblivion someone three eight two five five, Sorry to see
shooting at Emory University. We don't have much word at
(30:05):
this point other than the shooter dead, but just a
good reminder that that the next one's coming, right, The
next one's always coming. And so the big question is
are we going to have a good guy or gail
with a gun there or just leave the innocent to
the quote mercy of the monster. So the Democrats will
answer that question, meaning the left that controls the party
(30:25):
will answer that question in favor of the monster virtually
every time, unless it's a Lefty themselves in public office,
and they'll have the taxpayers pay for a whole bunch
of guns. Dan, great question. I totally melt it down
when turning thirty. Who melts down when they turned thirty.
Speaker 4 (30:44):
My dad did, I'll tell you this, thirty. He told
me this. He and my mom reinforced that him turning
thirty was far more difficult and depressing for him than
turning forty.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Why.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
And I remember his fortieth birthday. I remember my dad.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
I think he just felt like his youth was over.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
And what.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
Wasn't it his generation? Right, so a little bit older
than you.
Speaker 4 (31:05):
But the boomers, the ones that were like Vietnam War protesters,
don't trust anybody over thirty?
Speaker 11 (31:11):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (31:11):
Right, wasn't that the same?
Speaker 1 (31:14):
That is?
Speaker 3 (31:14):
Sorry, that might have had something to.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
Do with it, but you know, I mean, the funny
thing is, I was thinking the other day. My wife,
I think was twenty seven when we got married. Yeah,
Joe's twenty seven now, you know. And I thought of
her as an incredibly beautiful young woman at the time,
But I didn't think of her as twenty seven. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (31:35):
Now, that's the age my dad was when I was born.
I'm there first. My mom was twenty six.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
Wow. So this texter, Yeah, this texter melts down when
he turns thirty and then he.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Get in forty.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Now, I look back and think those were the days,
so probably early thirties, in my flourishing television production career,
met my husband, and, like you, experienced the life changing
event of having a child. That is where I've often
felt frozen, but sadly feeling older lately. Yeah, but is
that mentally or physically, because on the physical side you
(32:09):
do everything you can, right, but some things are of
your control. Mentally, yeah, mentally unless somebody's diseased, right, I mean,
you know, God forbid somebody gets Alzheimer's or whatever. I
think we can very effectively freeze like that. It's so
we see a pattern, right, almost everybody coming in at
this point, right around forty this one, early thirties, this
(32:33):
nice lady early thirties, Dan.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
With the Democratic.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
Not well phrased equivalent of jury members leaving the state
could not pass a verdict that they disagree with. Yeah, well,
that's that's true in what's happening in Texas. I don't
think it's making the Democrats look good, and I don't
think it's going to work long term, but it does.
And I'm not going to do this on a Friday
afternoon with people driving because eyes will glaze over and
(33:00):
people to drive into telephone polls if they don't turn
us off first. But this whole redistricting thing is really interesting,
and the Democrats have abused it all across the country,
and one of these days where we're going to spend
some more time on it if we can figure out
an interesting way to do it.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
But there are really good arguments, a.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
Lot of good data out there that the GOP should
have a whole lot more seats in Congress if not
for the combination of Gerrymander districts, and of course the
GOP has done some of that, but also this insanity
of having folks here illegally affecting our congressional districts.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
