Dan is fuming at former President Obama's suggestion that having a father isn't enough for a young American man, they need a gay male role model as well - to check against their father's shortcomings.

Dave Chappelle would be a home run hire to replace Stephen Colbert as Late Show host, but can CBS or ANY network afford him? Probably not.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
The American Way to have fun, right, and enjoy this bounty.
What a beautiful Friday afternoon? And can it be a warm,
dry weekend across the Rocky Mountain West as well? So
if you're listening in Colorado, you are going to have
a great one three or three seven one three A
two five five text d A N five seven seven
three nine. Lots of fun stuff out there. We're talking,

(00:35):
of course, about Colbert getting canceled. That's led to this
broader conversation of why late night comics suck and the
obvious conclusion, right, they're just bitter lefties trying to get
people to go to bed hating. Yeah, not much of
an appetite for that in America. And then who will
that next great late night comic be, because there's such
a huge market for it, right, you'd watch it, I'd

(00:56):
watch it, we'd probably all watch it. And so who
will that be? Just another way Donald Trump is improving
America long term three or three seven one three eight
two five five The number text d A N five
seven seven three nine will soon tee up some remarkable
Barack Obama sound where he talks about how every kid
needs a gay person in their life, not just their parent.

(01:19):
And it really it's it's so bizarre, it's it's so interesting,
but it just confirms and exposes further what the left
is really up to, right, their attitude is, these really
aren't your kids, and you look at all the different
ways they are trying to accomplish that this and it's
under the umbrella parental rights. Right, It's just one of

(01:40):
the great undercurrent and now on top of the surface
battles raging in America. And I think another big reason
that Donald Trump won, speaking of which I take great
pride Ryan, because I think I was the first one
to call this the coup attempt, the ongoing coup attempt,
back in sixteen after Trump won, and it certainly that.

(02:01):
But the new information today Tulsea Gabbert, Director of National Intelligence,
has issued a formal release new evidence of Obama administration
conspiracy to subvert President Trump's twenty sixteen victory and Presidency,
and you can just read it on their website. I

(02:21):
don't have enough time on the show to go through
all of it, but the DNI website has it. I'll
give you a little taste. On Friday, Director Gabber revealed
overwhelming evidence that demonstrates how after President Trump won the
twenty sixteen election against Hillary Clinton, President Obama and his
national security Cabinet members manufactured and politicized intelligence to lay

(02:46):
the groundwork for what was essentially a year's long coup
against President Trump. And then just a couple of bullet
points give you the feel for this thing. In the
months leading up to the November twenty sixteen election, the
intelligence can unity consistently assessed that Russia is quote probably
not trying to influence the election by using cyber means.

(03:07):
On December seventh, twenty sixteen, after the election, talking points
were prepared for D and I, James Clapper stating quote,
foreign adversaries did not use cyber attacks on election infrastructure
to alter the US presidential election outcome. On December ninth, sixteen,
President Obama's White House gathered top National Security Council principles

(03:29):
for a meeting that included James Clapper, John Brennan's Who's In, Rice,
John Kerry, Loretta Lynch, Andrew mccabon others to discuss Russia.
After the meeting, dn I, Clapper's executive assistant sent an
email to IC leaders asking tasking them with creating a
new Intelligent Community assessment quote per the President's request, that

(03:54):
details quote tools Moscow used in actions it took to
influence twenty sixteen election. It went on to say, odn
Y will lead this effort with participants from CIAFBI, NSA,
and DHS. Obama officials then leaked false statements to media outlets,
including Washington Post, claiming quote Russia has attempted through cyber

(04:17):
means to interfere in, if not actively, influence the outcome
of an election. And on January sixth, seventeen, a new
Intelligence Community assessment was released that directly contradicted the IC
assessments that were made throughout the campaign. So, yeah, they're
getting into detail now on this coup attempt and that's

(04:38):
exactly what it was. And so where do you think
this goes? And this is going to be interesting to
watch because you know, you've got statutes of limitations on
most criminal charges, the period of time during which the
charges must be brought or forever waived, and so that's
going to be one challenge for the White House. I

(04:59):
don't think political considerations would get in the way here
because the president's on a mission and he's not running again,
and yes, he's mindful of the midterms. He doesn't want
a Democrat Congress. But I think that if his administration
believes they can successfully bring some criminal charges here, they
are going to do it. So we will keep an
eye on that. Do you expect anyone charged to Young Ryan.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
I'll believe it when I see it. Kind on that camp.
You know, I've been really frustrated for years. You know,
you go back to the bleach bit stuff with Hillary
Clinton and Kombe announcement and Sean Hannity promising, Oh it's coming.
They're gonna charge Hillary, They're gonna convict her, She's gonna
and then that never happened. And then recently you've had
Representative James Comer, Republican Kentucky, who I like personally, But

(05:43):
we're going to have these hearings.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
About the mind family. We're gonna get there, and then
nothing happens.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
Dan, Well, my young friend, I would disagree for this reason.
I think Comber did a heck of a job. I
think he put the evidence out there, and then I
think the media, which is an extension of the Democratic Party,
just killed it, you know, the same way they killed
the Hunter laptop story. I think Comber did a heck
of a job. And you know, that's where I think

(06:09):
we ran into that two tier justice system. If that
evidence had been against Donald Trump and his family, you know,
they none of them would be taking a shower for
a long time. So yeah, I think that's what we
ran into there. And I'm glad Comber's still after it,
right because he's leading the charge on on this investigation.
All these Biden Knights are taking the fifth on whether

(06:31):
they knew the guy was incompetent.

Speaker 3 (06:33):
Very telling, Dan, because if he was competent, then they'd
go ahead and testify to that notion that yes, of
course he was competent. He was making all the decisions,
he told me what to do, he signed all the pardons.
They're not saying that though, And it's not just one aide, Dan,
it's multiple, right, this is telling.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
Well, and we knew what was going on. We were
talking about on the show, you know, a year before
Biden dropped out of the race. So I'm just really
really glad that that Comber's digging in. I'm really really
glad that Trump's digging in for this reason. I mean,
it's such a long term good for the country if
the Left knows that if they try to pull this

(07:11):
stuff again, there's a real chance that they will be
held accountable, including criminally. That's necessary for the long term
health of the country. Now Barack Obama thinks what's necessary
for the long term health of the country is that
your child have a gay person involved in their life,
a gay adult, as a check on you, the parent.

(07:32):
Here's that sound.

Speaker 5 (07:33):
That's one of the things that I think a lot
of times boys need is not just exposure to one guy,
one dad. No matter how good the dead that is,
he can't be everything. And then that boy may need
somebody to give give the boys some perspective on the dead.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
Yeah right, my lord.

Speaker 3 (07:57):
Now hold on, Dan, real quick. Didn't Barack Obama grow
up without a dad with a single mom? Yeah right, yeah,
I mean that's terrible, but he does not have that perspective,
And thankfully we do, Dan, You and me had tremendous
father figures and that means a lot. But for him
to just go ahead and cast dispersions like one, dad's
not enough, Yes he is, if he's doing his job right.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
Yeah. And I apologize to the audience for tripping on
that sound. It just ticks me off so much to
hear this arrogant elitist say that you need somebody other
than your dad, right, this arrogant, arrogant elitist. And I
trust that he was a good father to his girls.

(08:39):
I don't have the details of that, but I'd be
very surprised that anybody who had been a really good
parent to their children could say something like that, because
this is a unique role in all the world. And
I understand everybody knows right as a matter of fact,
that the left is trying to break down the nuclear family,
separate children from the parents, so the leftists, you know,

(09:02):
can can get control of their children, the ideology, et cetera.
They're trying to do it through public schools, they're trying
to do it in other ways. But so I'm sorry
I tripped on that sound. He just makes me so angry,
and so let me let it play in its entirety
Thank you, Ryan. Do you mind rerecking that?

Speaker 5 (09:19):
That's one of the things that I think a lot
of times boys need is not just exposure to one guy.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
One dad.

Speaker 4 (09:32):
No matter how good the dad is, he can't be everything.

Speaker 5 (09:36):
And then that that boy may need somebody to give
give the boys some perspective on the dead right now.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
Wow, And I want to use language here that would
send me to confession because think about that, so little
appreciation for the value in the very very special role
of a great parent, but also just that leftist ideology
where they have to get between the parent and the

(10:05):
child to give perspective on the parent, right, And what
perspective is it that the Obamas want to give the
child on the parent That the parents are wrong. If
the parents were right, they wouldn't want to give any
perspective on the parent. Yeah, but it's goods there is
righteous anger, and it's good to have righteous anger toward

(10:25):
the Obamas for that, but also to appreciate them, appreciate
them for being so open about what they and the
rest of the left are really up to, because that
will just help us work even harder to make sure
that people with that kind of ideology don't get office,
don't get power. Unfortunately, in Colorado, that's all we have

(10:47):
right is we've got this hard left. And look what
they've done in Colorado. You know the drill. I won't
repeat it, but in Colorado now you know they're criminalizing
a parent telling the child the truth about oh no,
you really are a boy, Johnny. And so we're seeing
it here in Colorado, and we've seen it across America
generate a lot of votes for conservative candidates. In Colorado,

(11:10):
we're stuck with it for now because the people haven't
reached that tipping point where they're going to say no more,
no more of this insanity from the left. But you
mess with people's kids long enough, that's the one thing
that could tip Colorado. You're on the Dan Capla Show.

Speaker 4 (11:26):
And now back to the Dankaplas Show podcast.

Speaker 6 (11:30):
Now on the political scene. One of the Democratic candidates,
who Senator Joseph Biden. Have you seen the problem he's
been having. He went around and made a speech and
apparently he quoted a I think it was a British politician,
took his speech and kind of paraphrased it as his own,
and then the press got on him, and then he

(11:50):
was charged also with taking part of Bobby Kennedy's speeches,
and Biden says, not to worry you, reassured his staff.
He said, we have nothing to fear but fear itself.

Speaker 4 (12:02):
See that's funny.

Speaker 2 (12:04):
That's funny. And the thing about Kurs and ires Sand
most people too young to remember him, but it would
be even handed, right. It's not like he came out
gunning for one party or the other every night, and
so much of his humor had nothing to do, nothing
to do with politics at all. Remember his infamous interview
with Arnold Palmer. Palmer ended up walking off the set.

(12:25):
Do you remember that one? Oh no, I don't remember that? Wow?
Really well?

Speaker 4 (12:28):
Was that in the seventies.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
I need to remember Palmer such a straight shooter, and
you know how it is. Who would you say? And
I'd like to open this up to folks who have
you met, who other people might know who just has
that X factor, They just have that charisma. It's an aura,
it's tangible. But Palmer had that. I remember I was
Caddy in the Western Open and I was a kid.

(12:51):
I had to be what fifteen maybe sixteen, and I
just felt like it was ten seconds ago. Turning the
corner around the clubhouse and the pro shop, and all
of a sudden, I literally bump into Arnold Palmer, and
it was I mean like we bumped into each other,
and then I had the clubs on my back and
everything else, and he got this big smile, son, how
you doing, and he just you know, he had that

(13:12):
X fact right yeah, and but yeah, so yeah, he
was on one night with Arnold Palmer and and Palmer
they were talking about his rituals and golf and everything,
and and Palmer just made the comment about, you know,
why of this ritual before I go out to play,
my wife kisses, and then he described golf equipment and

(13:36):
then Carson took off with that and ran, oh, and
Arnold Palmer, you know, as a just a straight shooting decent,
you know, family man had no interest in that kind
of humor. But Carson, Yeah, the show was just funny.
There will be another one of those against soon because
there's a there's a huge market for it. Three someone
three eight, two five five the number he wanted to

(13:59):
fire this on and ask is there any real difference
between Mike Johnston, mayor of Denver and this self identified
socialist many say more a communist, Zohan, Mom Donnie in
New York. Now understand, I'm not calling Mike Johnston a
socialist or a communist. I don't get involved in that
kind of terminology stuff because the show just gets bogged

(14:19):
down in it. My question is more precise and more important.
Is there any difference between the two when it comes
to policy and worldview? Particularly in this example, we're zeroing
in unhousing because you'll hear in this sound Mom Donnie
say that, hey, he'll abolish private property if he needs

(14:40):
to to have everybody have a home. You've got Mike Johnston,
mayor of Denver, who proclaimed the world you come to Denver,
we will get you a home. And now Johnston is
laying people off, cutting police budget, cutting other budgets so
he can fulfill that promise to the world. So listen
to this.

Speaker 7 (15:00):
My platform is that every single person should have housed.
And I think faced with these two options, the system,
the system has hundreds of thousands of people unhoused, right
for what And if there was any system that could
guarantee each person housing, whether you call it the abolition
of private property or you call it, you know, just

(15:22):
a state wide housing guarantee. It is preferable to what
is going on right now. And I think that people
try and play like gotcha games about these kinds of things,
and it's like, look, I care more about whether somebody
has a home.

Speaker 4 (15:35):
We will get you a home.

Speaker 2 (15:36):
We will get you a home.

Speaker 4 (15:37):
We will get you a home.

Speaker 2 (15:39):
Yeah, what's the difference in terms of philosophy? And I
think this is where the Democratic Party is headed, which
is bad news for the Democratic Party, right, They're headed
to this this socialist place. Mom, Donnie's open about it.
I think Johnston packages it differently. How else can you
justify coming out and making such a preposter statement just

(16:01):
this open offer you come to Denver, we will get
you a home. And he's delivering on it, but at
an enormous cost to quality of life for you know,
the tax paying citizens. And when it comes to a
safety net, like a true safety net, right, you have
somebody who who all of a sudden they and their
family are just going to be out on the street.

(16:21):
Or you have somebody because of illness or this circumstance
or that circumstance, you know they're going to be out
in the street. No, no, you have a true safety Net.
But that's not what Johnston's doing, and that's not what
Mandani's doing. I mean, it's that's how they want to
change America fundamentally. And you know, Johnston dresses it up
better but and isn't as obvious in his language. But

(16:47):
you can see what they have in common. They're, by
the way, really happy that President Trump put in a
personal call to Prime Minister Net and Yahoo on the
the bombing of the Catholic Church in God that terrible attack,
you know, that left one dead and others injured and
the church destroyed. And because that obviously a very very

(17:08):
serious thing. And I sit here right and I don't
then look at Israel and believe that that, you know,
the IDEF did this on purpose or was some sort
of evil act or anything else. You know. I believe
it was just an honest mistake with enormous consequences. But
I'm really glad that President Trump, you know, put in

(17:29):
that call personally and all of these horrors, including this
this horrific damage and loss of life at the Catholic church,
and how brave those people are going to the Catholic
Church in Gaza. All of this I bring back to
Iran because Iran is Amas right. I bring it back
to Iran, and Israel has a right to self defense,

(17:51):
and they had a right to go into Gaza. They
have a right to protect themselves there. Do they have
a right to attack this Catholic church. No, But I
don't believe it was done intentionally for a second. And
I think this is all a product of the evil
in the world that attacked Israel, you know, on October seventh,

(18:11):
And pray for the innocent loss of life and for
all those heroic Catholics who go to church in Gaza.
And I trust that Israel will help rebuild that church
when we come back. Lots of fun stuff to finish
out the week here on the Dan Kapitla Show.

Speaker 4 (18:28):
You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast That.

Speaker 8 (18:32):
First debate, That first debate.

Speaker 5 (18:34):
I've never seen anything like it.

Speaker 8 (18:36):
I've never seen a white male billionaire screaming at the
top of his lungs. This whole system is rigged, he said,
And across the stage was white woman Hillary Clinton and
Barack Obama sitting o way looking.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
At him like, no, it's not.

Speaker 8 (18:50):
I said, Now wait a minute, bro, is what he's said,
and the matter said, well, missus Trump, in fact, the
system is rigged. As he said, what would be your evidence?
You remember what he said, bro, He said, I know
the system is rigged because I use it. I said, damn.

(19:15):
And then Hillard clemes out a bunch in the taxes.
He said, this man doesn't pay his taxes. He shot
right back, that makes me smart. And then he said,
if you want me to pay my taxes, then change
the tax code. But I know you won't because your

(19:36):
friends and your donors enjoy the same tax breaks that
I do. And with that, my friends, the star was born.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
Dave Chappelle, you know we've been talking about with the
cancelation of Colbert, you know, when are we going to
get a true late night comic again, you know, one
who doesn't have an agenda. They're equal opportunity destroyers. You know,
they're just funny. They take some shots against the left
and right and a lot of it's not political at all.
We know there's an enormous market for that. I'd watch it,
you'd probably watch it. So who will it be? And when?

(20:09):
That'll be kind of fun to watch? Three oh three
seven one three eight two five five text D A
N five seven seven three nine speaking of a funny guy,
but not in a way he intends. Representative Eric Swalwell, Ryan,
can we cut twenty three place? This is Phil Wiser's
on this kick too right now, trying to pass laws

(20:32):
that prevent ICE, these courageous ICE agents from wearing face
coverings when they're in these dangerous situations. Cut twenty three places.

Speaker 9 (20:42):
And these ICE agents running around our communities like masked
bank robbers, terrorizing women. They're going to get themselves hurt.
And I hope that doesn't happen. And we're already seeing
women are being targeted by people who are impersonating agents.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
Wow, every state of that, Ryan, That the only good
news there is every minute Swallwell spends viewing that kind
of nonsense. He's not sleeping with the Chinese spy. So
you're going to take what we can get there, right.
But what's what's so fascinating here is wait a second,
Just like with Phil Wiser, right who's on this same crusade,

(21:22):
Wait a second. Phil Wiser has never shown any concern
whatsoever to establish the identity of any of the folks
entering the country illegally, even the hardened criminals. He's never
shown any interest in establishing the identity of those folks.
But now he's on this crusade that that every ICE

(21:43):
agent should have to have their picture out there for
the Left to then seize on and broadcast and invite
harm upon those agents. Yeah, remarkable, And maybe that's just
Wiser's desperation because he's getting clocked at this point by Bennett.
But it just goes back to how stunning it is
to me, you know, just as a son of a cop,

(22:04):
How stunning that these lefties, you know, just view these
cops lives as throwaway. And yeah, yeah, it's just remarkable
to me. But I think it just goes back I
don't mean to get heavy on a Friday afternoon, but
it just goes back to the whole leftist ideology just
doesn't have that built in respect for the importance of

(22:26):
each human life. So yeah, okay, we're a cops. Yeah,
we don't care about their lives anymore. Once you start
with the pillar, the foundation, the altar of your party
now is supporting that the mass killing of human life
before birth. And I guess it logically flows in a
horrific kind of way that as a matter of public policy,

(22:48):
you would not value individual human life in any of
your policy making, including when it comes to law enforcement.
And that's kind of the common thread now in Democrat
Party policies is just kind of this death cult. I mean,
how can a guy like Phil Wiser, Attorney General of
the State of Colorado, go out there and complain about

(23:09):
law enforcement covering their face during arrest when he knows
the Left is trying to identify them and then subject
them to potential harm. Yeah. Three oh three seven three
eight two five five. The number did a good job.
They're keeping it light, right Ryan. Oh, you know I
tracially Dave Chappelle clip coming in pretty Friday afternoon. Yeah, No,

(23:30):
you did your part. You did your part, Thank you, Okay?
Text d A N five seven seven three nine.

Speaker 4 (23:36):
Is there a name Dan?

Speaker 3 (23:38):
And maybe for our listeners two five seven seven three
nine or by phone as well? Three ozho three seven
one three eight two five five were.

Speaker 2 (23:45):
They're thinking they had not heard that or trying to said.

Speaker 3 (23:47):
That, I'm an echo, That's what I am here. Yeah,
but a name that jumps off the page. We talked
about Dave Chappelle, we mentioned earlier Shane Gillis. I think
what might be adept at this. You might have to
improve his interviewing skills. There's a lot goes into being
a late night and doing it well. And that's why
Johnny Carson was the master of the craft, and that's
why Jay Leno and David Letterman were extremely adapt at.
And I thought Conan O'Brien was to But a lot

(24:09):
of these modern guys, they're kind of mailing it in.

Speaker 4 (24:11):
They're going through the motions.

Speaker 3 (24:12):
They're just you know, tapping into Trump arrangement syndrome. And
that gets old quickly. Even for those on the left
that hate Trump, they're getting sick of it.

Speaker 4 (24:19):
Is there a talent? Is there a name that could
save the franchise?

Speaker 3 (24:22):
And I'm talking about the late night show format on
network television?

Speaker 4 (24:26):
Dan, what say you?

Speaker 2 (24:28):
What I say is yes, And it's one we don't
know yet. I just think there's there's probably great talent
out there who combines you know, they need the interview skills, right,
you have to be able to get the top entertainers
on and everything else. And there's got to be that
top talent out there. Could very well be a woman.

(24:50):
But yeah, I think that person's out there among the
people we know. I get the Shane Gillis point. And
I think, you know, I think he could be funny
to a point. I'm not sure he's kind of multi
talented enough. You know. The funny thing is it could
be a guy like Fallon. I mean, I think a
guy like Fallon brings a lot of that to the table.
But as you said, he seemed to then go lockstep

(25:10):
with the left right. But I think we'll see that.
Who's who's the funniest person in Colorado right now? I
mean who the public would know? I'm sure there are
a lot funnier people who just aren't on the radar.
George Brockler, Boy, he'd be right up there.

Speaker 4 (25:25):
He's hilarious, isn't he.

Speaker 2 (25:26):
He is hilarious? He yeah, And I remember he helped
me write some killer stuff. Oh nice when I had
to do a big thing down at Mile High and
it was really good. Yeah, he may be. Who else
I'd love to hear from folks on that three h
three someone three A two five five text d A

(25:47):
N five seven seven three nine. Who's the funniest person
in Colorado right now? Again? Who the public would know?

Speaker 3 (25:55):
I know it's not but tries to be and that's
Jared Polus, What are you smoking? And I'm saying he's not,
but he really thinks that he is, and he tries to.
He is like Rupert Pupkin, the Robert de Niro character
in King of Comedy.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
Yeah, he has to be one of the least funny
people around.

Speaker 4 (26:16):
But he thinks he's funny.

Speaker 3 (26:17):
He does these videos, you know, with the the polos
buttoned all the way to the top, and the tennis
shoes and the quirky He thinks humor, but it's just
it does not land Oh.

Speaker 2 (26:25):
And the where the damn mask and selfish masters as
that must have been Sorry about that work comedy.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
Well, that's the true him, and that's the true you know.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
We have the clip on the button bar dan as
you and I know where he goes after the deceased Wallarski.

Speaker 4 (26:42):
And that's him. That anger is him. That's what I
think defines him.

Speaker 2 (26:46):
Who's the funniest Democrat?

Speaker 4 (26:48):
Michael Bennett.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
But unintentionally that's a good answer. Come on, DANNEVI, look
talk about Ted Kruizes, people are drowning and the businesses.
Good answer. I had not to sound like that since
mating season and Rocket National Park, but who else are
funny Democrats? Man? How about other funny Republicans? I mean,

(27:11):
George isn't the only funny Republican, but he is really good.
He's up there, he is really good. Yeah. Yeah, well
we'll open it up. People have some ideas. Lewis and
Floor Wax used to have that great comedy show. Yeah. Yeah,
they were really funny, and then they'd work in all
the skits and everything else. I'll tell you you know
who who's right up there a great sense of humor.

(27:35):
Vic Lombardi, yep, Yeah, you know, he's one of those
really really talented guys. You know, I view him as
as kind of a younger Dave Logan, you know, where
you just get those institutions, and I think Fixed kind
of become his own institution. But he is a funny guy, right, Absolutely,

(27:55):
he is a funny guy. Yeah, we'll open that up. Also,
three or three? Someone three A two? I five the
number A little offended. Nobody's nominated me yet, but I
get that. I get that. It's like with my wife.
I'm always saying I'm laughing inside, and I am. I'm
laughing like crazy inside. I very cold laugh more outside.

Speaker 4 (28:15):
You have a very good sense of humor. Damn it's dry.
And I like that, you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (28:19):
Yeah, no, thank you for that. And you know who
used to be by far the funniest guy on radio.
I know you give you know the answer, So I'm
going to give you fifteen seconds. Then we have to
hit a break Allen Berg.

Speaker 3 (28:33):
No, Craig Silverman, Well, yeah, is that one where he
was trying to be funny or he just wasn oh okay?

Speaker 2 (28:41):
And I would submit to you that there may have
never been anybody funnier in the history of Colorado radio
other than I mean Lewis and Florax say ad a
comedy show, right, But for anybody doing anything political, there
was a time there nobody was funnier than Craig Interesting. Yeah, yeah,

(29:01):
we should bring back some of those tapes three or three.
I just I'm just laughing think of some of the
stuff that happened, which often led to expletive philled brakes,
But there was some funny, funny stuff that happened. Three
or three someone three eight, two, five, five the number
text d A N five seven, seventh through nine. Who's

(29:22):
the funniest person in Colorado? You're on the Dan Kapla Show.

Speaker 4 (29:27):
And now back to the Dan Taplas Show podcast.

Speaker 2 (29:30):
In search of Colorado's funniest person as I predict that
Late Knight's going to go back to having a true
late night comedy show sometime soon because there's such a
big audience for it. Right, but how about Colorado? Who
is that funniest person? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (29:47):
Well, we've got a couple of texts here, Dan, I
think they're very good ones too, from Separate Texters. First
one says Josh Blue is the funniest comedian in Colorado.

Speaker 4 (29:55):
He's also a great father and good guy.

Speaker 3 (29:57):
I've seen him open and actually have his own uh
spotlight shows that comedy works here South that's right by
the station.

Speaker 4 (30:04):
And then how about this one, Dan Peyton Manning.

Speaker 2 (30:07):
Oh that's a good one.

Speaker 4 (30:08):
He's hilarious.

Speaker 2 (30:09):
Now let me ask you, I'm not seeing either of
those texts. Maybe I need to eat boot, you need
to read boot. Are you just making them up?

Speaker 4 (30:16):
No, Kelly, I'm not making them up.

Speaker 10 (30:20):
No, he's not making it up. I can see it.

Speaker 2 (30:22):
You got to control delete things, Dan, ye had no,
we had a Kelly story we're going to tell, right, Kelly,
weren't you telling me what was it about? What? Oh, yes, college,
I'll exploit what was that college camp? No, she got
on the kiss camp someone I did.

Speaker 10 (30:40):
Yes, So I dated a Zamboni driver when I was
in LA for the La Kings, and he was one
of many, and you know, all of those guys know everyone,
so they really clean up. We had never kissed. It

(31:01):
was our second date and uh so we got on
the kiss cam because the guy was a best friend
that was working the kiss cam operation in the video booth,
and so it came on us and we had our
first kiss.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
Great story.

Speaker 10 (31:22):
Yeah, but you know I didn't marry it married down
with Yeah, it.

Speaker 2 (31:26):
Didn't turn on Zamboni guy. He was on a roll
there for a while.

Speaker 10 (31:30):
I think he's probably still driving the zamponi for all in.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
That's great for the can't outsource that job? Hello, Yeah
you won't. Well I was going to say you won't
see AI doing that job, but you probably will.

Speaker 3 (31:44):
Yeah, you can have automatic driving Zamboni machine. Elon Musk
is probably working on that right now.

Speaker 2 (31:49):
Oh, there is no doubt. And how long is it
until we have hologriffic sports broadcasts? Oh, don't tell that.
And I don't think it'll be that long before. Like
you go to an arena and you watch that, not
in place of the real thing, but say there's a
huge game and and you know you can film more

(32:10):
than one arena. You have the holographic version somewhere, but
even at home. I can't imagine that's going to be
too far down the road. That sounds. But you're right
about Peyton Manny. He he Maybe he'd have to be
the funniest color right. Maybe George Brockler second, But Peyton Manny.

Speaker 4 (32:26):
I could see him hosting a show like that.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, and doing well, that's
a great suggestion. He could do that late night comedy
show totally. He get it. Yeah, I'm not sure he'd
want to write because you got to be there every
night and all that.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
When you watch him, and I know that you do,
I know, Kelly, doesn't I do watching the alternate Monday
and Football broadcast on ESPN two if Yeah, Peyton and
his brother Eli, and that's the other thing. Yeah, Eli's
a little bit more low key, but he's hilarious.

Speaker 2 (32:54):
Yea, yeah, but Peyton's better. Yes, oh yeah, yeah. I
must here for somebody to be good enough to do
the big late night show, right like Lennar or Carson
used to do. You got to just look at him
and laugh. You know that Peyton Manning can do that.
Plus he would get the guests, would a lot. That's

(33:17):
a great idea. That's what I wonder if a good
job text? What was that that was at? I don't
know why I'm not getting those texts, but that was.
That's a great suggestion.

Speaker 10 (33:29):
If we're gonna do AI broadcasters, can we do Chris
Fowler out at Wimbledon?

Speaker 2 (33:35):
Oh, here we go.

Speaker 4 (33:37):
She hates Chris Fowler doing Wimbledon on ESPN.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
Well, okay, that's a first world problem right there. Yes
it is. Yeah, that is a first world problem. But
can't we do need that that great late night and
I could see I could see Peyton Manning in that seat.

Speaker 1 (33:54):
You know.

Speaker 2 (33:54):
That was one of the coolest things about working out
of the Burbank studio there covering Rodney King for a
long time. Pause, just get to go hang out in
the Tonight Show studio and just hang around and I
could see Peyton Manning right there at that desk. A
great suggestion, Texter. I hope you get a percentage. Hey
have a great weekend run YouTube. Kelly, please join us
