Speaker 1 (00:10):
Independent thoughts, independent life. This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Has the Trump Show ran its course? And I mean
that not trying to be mean. I'm gonna be honest.
You guys know this. I'm gonna tell it like it is.
Has it run its course? I like the ideas, but
I've got to be honest with you. The act gets boring,
it gets exhausting. You've got opportunities in front of you,

(00:38):
you don't take them. Everybody knows that. Everybody can see that.
I hear from you. For the negative mag of people
to yell at me, I get five or ten people
that will text me or tweet at me, dm me
whatever it is and say it's getting old. It's getting old.
You ever go to a concert or even a comedy
show and you think, oh cool, this guy's funny, this

(01:00):
check's funny, this is gonna be great, this dude's funny.
And you go there and it's word for word, the
same thing you've seen the last time you saw him.
And that's kind of what I feel like with Trump.
And it's frustrating it is. And I know I'll get
pushedback on some of this, and that's okay. I'm okay
with that some people tell you what you want to hear.
I'm gonna tell you what you need to hear. Spoke

(01:21):
last night to a prominent Republican. We're texting back and
forth and I'm like, you need to say this, and
he goes, I don't want to say it because I
know what'll happen. But he told me, you want to
know what the real dream is, We win the Senate,
we hold the house, Trump loses. Really, I'm like, really,

(01:42):
he goes, yeah, he goes, we could do more with
that than if we lose the Senate. We lose the
House and Trump wins. I thought, oh, interesting, it's frustrating.
Oolitical thing at this moment in time is just frustrating.

(02:04):
And I'm frustrated because I look out there and I
see a guy who changed so much in politics. Came
in was lightning in a bottle, and he was a
lightning rod for controversy and whatnot. But he changed a lot.
But at some point in time, you ask yourself, have

(02:27):
you evolved with it? I think the age thing's a
bigger issue than people realize. I really, really, really do.
Megan Kelly talking about it.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
And when he has what appeared to be senior moments,
I will call him out on it, and he doesn't
like that, and I can't say that I blame him,
but that's my job. I will say that in that
discussion with Elon, to me, he seemed quite rambling. He
goes on too long at his rallies and in these
exchanges and at his pressor the other day, to where
you get kind of bored, you lose the thread, you

(02:59):
lose interest, which is not something you're used to with Trump.
Trump in twenty sixteen he was tough to lose interest in,
and I think that's probably an age related change. So
I think this is one of the challenges of the
people around him, who are I'm sure are desperately trying
to get him to stick on message.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Which he's never going to do. He is never going
to stick on message ever, because he doesn't know how
not to fight dirty, which is a reason a lot
of people like Donald Trump, because he's willing to say
certain things that others, especially in the political world, never said.

(03:41):
And for Republicans, he was willing to fight in a
way that they were weren't used to fighting. He's willing
to say things to the media that they weren't used to,
but the act for a lot of people is getting old.
And Chris selet Here, who used to be on CNN,

(04:02):
has got a great blog out there now. You should
check it out in newsletters really good said this, and
this is as real as it gets in this moment
in time, and that the reality is has probably always
been this way. Maybe we cared a little bit more
about one of these back in the day, but in
today's world, this is the only thing that matters.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
I'm not sure the issues were ever central to how
people make up their mind about a president of the
United States. I think it is always a personality contest first.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
And I think that is a big deal. I mean,
how many times have you heard this throughout our lives?
Who would you like to have a beer with? Who
would you like to have dinner with? Well, there's no
doubt if I had a choice to have dinner with
any of these people, I'm gonna have dinner with Trump
because he is so interesting and I don't care about
the politics, just him himself as an interesting character. But

(04:56):
there's an issue for sure, and she's we got the
vibe because the media is playing the vibe game with her.
She's got all the stuff going for right now, she's new.
She's got that new car smell. Right, look at that,
it's new car smell. She's got all of the things.
And this is the third time we've heard these jokes.

(05:18):
We can almost recite the jokes for him, and that's frustrating.
It really is. I mean, I have no idea what
the hell Kamala is about. I couldn't tell you. I
couldn't tell you a damn thing about what she's about.

(05:40):
She is for this, for that, I have no idea.
Even the other day in Arizona, man on the street,
is he like to say asking questions about set accomplishment?

Speaker 5 (05:54):
I mean, honestly, I'm not too into politics.

Speaker 6 (05:57):
I'm just here for the vibe.

Speaker 5 (05:59):
I'm in the first female vice president person.

Speaker 7 (06:04):
Yeah, I mean, I don't know. He's really good for women.

Speaker 5 (06:12):
Harris is there with the energy. She has a lot
of enthusiasm, so it's important to get behind her.

Speaker 8 (06:20):
I can say that right now.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
Second, there you go. Those people are going to vote
and no matter how hard you study, you think about
the issues, they're going to cancel your vote out. I'm
here for the vibes. I'm here for the vibes. That's
that's it. I'm here for the vibes. What are you
here for the vibes? Well, because the vibes are good.

(06:46):
She's a joyful warrior. She's whatever the campaign wants her
to be, because she's just an actress. Do you ever
want to see what the entire machine and apparatus looks like?
All you have to do is look over at her.
She is the pop star that has been created. They've

(07:07):
manufactured her. They've got forty people working on the album.
All she has to do is go out there, look pretty,
sing the song, come back in, don't say anything else,
don't talk to anybody else, and when you do, we
will tell you what to say and how to say it.

(07:28):
It's politics. It's sad. You can hear my voice. It's
just sad. But who is she? I don't know. I mean, honestly,
I couldn't tell you what she's about, cause what she
was about apparently she isn't about. But she's killing it
right on TikTok.

Speaker 9 (07:47):
She's doing great her on TikTok. She is killing it
with the young people and all those things that people
on the far right are putting out there as like, look,
how crazy young people love, and she's becoming an internet
sensation for laughing, for saying things and then enjoying a

(08:08):
joke or actually answering questions from young people that are funny.
And it's just sort of interesting to watch all this
turn on its head for Republicans who think it's going
badly for her, but don't miss the part where it's
going really well, or when you do, you actually have

(08:29):
to grasp and say that her crowds are created by AI.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
Well, again, there's another thing that's just ridiculous. We're talking
about the crowds. What's up? Who cares about the crowd side?
Who cares about any of those things? Focus on the message.
You can't okay, well, be funny, be entertaining, be whatever.
Trump is always going to be what Trump is. Win
or lose, this is it. It's the last ride with him,

(08:57):
win or lose. This is it. But I don't know
what it is for Kamala. I couldn't tell you. She
still won't do a damn interview. That to me is fascinating.
Finally people are pressing her people, why don't you do
an interview? Jim Shudo?

Speaker 10 (09:19):
Would it kill you guys to have a press conference.

Speaker 11 (09:21):
Why isn't she had a press conference? Do you mind
if I cut in? I mean, you know, a campaign
rally is not a press conference. Why isn't she had
a press conference? She's the vice president, she can handle
the questions. Why not do it? I don't want to
belabor this, but one interview before the end of the month.
I mean that's not a lot. I mean, can you
commit to a press conference before the end of the month.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
That was several attempts to get one of her people
to do a press conference, John Berman.

Speaker 12 (09:49):
It seems like she has time if she wanted to
do an interview with a member of the media or
do a news conference. Correct, there does appear to be
that time if she wanted.

Speaker 13 (10:00):
Well, look, she is set on the campaign trail that
she would be doing an interview at some point.

Speaker 12 (10:05):
She could do an interview today, I would think, you know,
because she's not out there today.

Speaker 2 (10:12):
She's got no reason to. She has zero reason to
do any of those things right now, because the vibes
are good and she's rolling on and Trump feels stale.
He does, he feels stale. I like a lot of
the policies, but I favor the policies of the Republicans.

(10:38):
I like a lot of those policies now, liking those
policies and having them actually, you know, do I think
the Republicans pull a lot of this stuff up. I'm
not quite sure they can. That being said, it's about winning,
and right now she feels new. Now that's gonna change.

(11:02):
She's got the next week and a half. She's gonna
get through the you know, next week and the big
hohah and all the great craziness and fun of the convention,
and she'll have a nice bump. But then he gets
real and there will be some questions, hopefully answered by her.
But right now, she's got the new car smell, and

(11:25):
Trump right now feels stale. There's still plenty of time.
He could still win this thing, and I wouldn't bet
against him. But I think for everybody out there who
thinks this is a walk in the park, because I
get a lot of you, you're fooling yourselves. And for
everybody out there on the left who thinks it's over
and done, you're also fooling yourselves. But at this moment

(11:45):
in time, one feels fresh and new and the other doesn't.

Speaker 14 (12:59):
Joe, you're listening to the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 15 (13:11):
President Minusha of Chaffique has abruptly stepped down and turned
in her letter of resignation. She will no longer serve
as president of the university and now she wrote a
letter to the school community saying, in part quote, I
have tried to navigate a path that upholds academic principles
and treats everyone with fairness and compassion. It has been
distressing for the community, for me as president and on

(13:33):
a personal level, to find myself, colleagues and students the
subject of threats and abuse.

Speaker 2 (13:39):
Yeah, that is the letter for the president of Columbia University.
She is stepping down, and I'm sure inside of the
letters she would like to have put it's the Jew's vault.
She performed poorly when they went to Capitol Hill. She
should have gone a long time ago. Everybody knows it.

Speaker 15 (13:57):
Faced heavy scrutiny for her handling of protests and campus
divisions over the Israel Hamas War, including from Republicans who
accused her I'm not doing enough to combat concerns about
anti Semitism on campus. Speaker of the House of Mike
Jhonsonson part her resignation is long overdue and welcomes this news.

Speaker 2 (14:16):
Yeah, I mean again, take away Jew put any other
group that feels like they're being oppressed, black, gay, Hispanic, whatever,
and it would have stopped immediately. But because it's the Jews,

(14:36):
for whatever reason, it was aoka. It was aokay to
do whatever the hell they wanted, to say, whatever the
hell they wanted, and it should have happened a while ago.
I think everybody recognizes that. And it's not a coincidence
that she's leaving right as schools getting ready to start
because she understands what is coming. I don't know if
Chicago understands what's coming. We decided not to go. I

(15:00):
was thinking the other day, how many people have got
credentialed that are going to get in the building and
cause chaos because they're going to keep the protesters further away.
But these protesters are coming hard, and Chicago said not here.
The minute you do something. The minute you step out

(15:21):
of line, the minute you decide that you want to
cause damage or do some sort of violence, whatever it
is that you're going to do, we're going to shut
it down immediately. Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four,

(15:43):
twenty three Chad Benson show. I don't know what's coming.
I mean, they're also expecting, you know, they're talking about
ol Kaida, isis you know all the things that they're
looking for, because you would do that's the right thing
to do. But we'll see how ugly this could be.

(16:04):
And I have a feeling there's going to be some
ugly situations on the outside. And I still think somebody's
going to get in on the inside and cause a
little chaos. Man, we have a housing issue in this country.
I don't know if you guys are aware of that.
It is pretty nasty, this housing issue. And the question
is why do we have a housing issue? How can

(16:25):
we fix the housing issue?

Speaker 16 (16:27):
Elizabeth Warren, You ever wonder how your grandparents bought a
home for seven raspberries, but you can't afford one bedroom apartment.

Speaker 8 (16:36):
It's not you.

Speaker 16 (16:38):
We're facing a national shortage of seven million homes and
renters and buyers are having to deal with the consequences.
The government needs to tackle this crisis head on, just
like we help people afford their homes decades ago. So
I have a bill that would lower rents by ten
percent and would help first time home buyers get a

(17:01):
foot in the door.

Speaker 2 (17:03):
It's time to get this done. It's time to get
this done. I don't think government's going to be able
to get this done because I think government's a massive problem.
So we've decided to turn to somebody who actually knows
about this stuff for real, because I always hear about
there's a housing Jordan. Why is that? We're going to
talk to a guy who is brilliant, who's got a
new book out about this crisis. His name is Jim Burling,

(17:24):
and his books called Nowhere to Live The Hidden Story
of America's Housing Crisis. Talk to him straight ahead about, Hey,
is there anything we can do about the housing crisis?
Three two, three, four, twenty three at Chad Benson Show's
your Twitter. It is the Chad Benson.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
Show, The Chad Benson Show, Independent Thoughts, Independent Life.

Speaker 14 (18:04):
This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (18:06):
The housing crisis Real? Is it not real? You got
homeless on the streets everywhere. Joining us now is James Berling,
is the author of a new book, Nowhere to Live,
The Hidden Story of the American Housing Crisis. Is also
the vice president of Legal Affairs at the Pacific Legal Foundation.
And there's so many places we could start, Jim, when
it comes to this housing issue, and let's first start

(18:30):
with California is a perfect example of the insanity that's
out there. You've got homeless people everywhere, but their housing
issue is they shouldn't be on the streets.

Speaker 17 (18:40):
Yeah, they shouldn't be on the streets.

Speaker 18 (18:42):
They should be in institutions where they can get the
help that they need to get out of their addictions
through their mental illnesses. The poor people shouldn't be on
the street, living in their cars and walking and working
in the walmart during the day.

Speaker 17 (18:56):
They should be able to afford homes.

Speaker 18 (18:58):
Just like thirty or four years ago, working people could
afford homes and virtually all places in California. But we
have made it so difficult to build new hazard. The
price has gone up and up and up. The fight
can't be demand and people that are on the edge
really are losing their homes.

Speaker 17 (19:17):
And they're going out onto the streets.

Speaker 18 (19:19):
Some people in the streets have whole other set of
problems alluded to the beginning. But there are other people
on the streets of living in cars and doubling up.

Speaker 17 (19:29):
These people just can't afford a place to live.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
And let's talks now, let's get into the nitty gritty
of the housing nightmare. I was reading an article the
other day, maybe you saw it. A couple California, you know,
Northern California, starter house. They make two hundred and fifty
thousand dollars a year. Starterhouse would have cost them about
five or six thousand dollars a month. After everything's said

(19:53):
and done, they had about eleven twelve thousand dollars left over.
It was too much for them to risk. It's insane
to think the fact that you can make a quarter
of a million dollars and you can't even afford house
that's a starter home. In today's world.

Speaker 17 (20:07):
No, it is absolutely nice.

Speaker 18 (20:10):
And people with children are finding out that they're grown
children with good jobs. Like I have a son who
has a good job in Newport Beach. He can't possibly
afford a home even with a really nice job. He
is simply living with roommates like so many other people
in their dirties are today because it costs so much.

(20:31):
I mean, look, when I was coming up and I
was in my twenties, I was able to buy a
starter home nine hundred square feet for twenty thousand dollars.
I thought that was a whole lot of my feet
back then. But today asks like that, it would cost
hundreds of thousands of dollars. And there is no reason
at that so much other than the fact we're not

(20:52):
building enough homes to meet the demands the population.

Speaker 17 (20:56):
Puts on us anyway.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
James Burling, the author of Nowhere to Live, The Hidden Store,
or of the American Housing Crisis, let's talk about perfect
example is environmental regulation. There's so much of that stuff.
Regulation in general, from zoning and everything else, makes it
virtually impossible to build anything anywhere, especially in areas where
you've got a lot of people. Southern California, northern California,

(21:18):
New York, places like that. It is so ridiculous because
you look around and they're like, we got to fix
the housing crisis. It's simple allow people to build, of course.

Speaker 18 (21:29):
But if you try to build a home in some
of the coastal areas and California is from center for this,
you're guaranteed to get one lawsuit after another lawsuit, after
another lawsuit. One of the lawsuits may be filed by
the local nimby, not in by backyard person just not
wanting to have their view obstructed across the street. Another

(21:50):
the lawsuit may be filed by an environmental group worried
about some endangered plant or some endangered buggle. But after
those lawsuits are taken care of, if someone could fill
in behind them and sue on another environmental ground, well,
to do an environmental impact statement, you have to consider
about one hundred different things. Your environmental impact statements can

(22:10):
cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, sometimes millions. If it's
the big project.

Speaker 17 (22:15):
And anybody you, I, or anybody on the street could.

Speaker 18 (22:19):
Open up an environmental impactor board, find something wrong with
it and I not done it properly. A tynt cross
you know one species, you only had ten pages to
talk about it, vishould about fifteen and you're going to
get a judge and stop the project, and stop the
project over and over and over again.

Speaker 17 (22:37):
I mean it's a litigation nightmare.

Speaker 18 (22:40):
If you are somebody simply trying to build homes in California.
And if you can't build the homes in California and
other states of similar laws, we're not going to meet
supply and prices go up. I mean, we have the
law of supply and demand. It applies in the United States,
it applies everywhere in the world. I mean North Korea
wasn't able to repeal the loss apply in demand as

(23:02):
well as finding out they can't, and our California legislature
I think one of the few groups. I think we
can repeal the loss apply and demand, But Chad, they can't.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
No, No, they can't, and they're never going to be
able to. The only way you're going to do that
is if you tell people they have to leave and
try to make everything Hey, one house for every person,
which is again something you can't do. Uh okay, of
all the ca and there's plenty of chaos that goes
on in this, you know, from San Francisco to New
York and everywhere else. The nimbi's all of those things.

(23:32):
There's got to be ways around this, and I'm hoping
AI in the future is going to solve a lot
of this to be able to go through the paperwork
because that is a big issue in California. When you
see a place like California and people are going to
go build a house, the paperwork, the amount of time
you wait in line, the amount of time that you
have to go through all these things is in many
cases as much as it is to build the house.

(23:53):
There's got to be ways in the future that this
is going to be made easier so stuff can be
made more affordable.

Speaker 18 (23:58):
Well, Chet, I'm not sure, because I think you're assuming
that the paperwork is there in order to get more
information and to make sure we build better houses. But
I think in a lot of cases, the paperwork burdens
that we have are designed to slow it from down
from building has. I mean, the environmental community loves massive
amounts of paperwork because it doesn't it means things won't

(24:20):
get built.

Speaker 17 (24:20):
So if you think AI is going to help with paperwork,
I am sure that.

Speaker 18 (24:24):
The environmental community and those that are like to suit
a stop projects will also get AI to help them
figure out ways of finding something else wrong with the
project to go.

Speaker 17 (24:34):
To court and look court.

Speaker 18 (24:36):
You know, on page three nine and twenty two of
the AI generated report, there's something that our AI found
wrong and you.

Speaker 17 (24:45):
Have to stop the project. So until we get rid.

Speaker 18 (24:48):
Of the paperwork requirements, until we have some real permit streamlining,
until we create meaningful exemptions to having to go through
these environmental reviews when people simply want to build homes
that meet zoning codes and that kind of thing. Until
that happens, we're going to continue to be in the
escalating crisis we're in today.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
Talking to James Merlin. He's the author of Nowhere to Live,
The Hidden Story of the American Housing Crisis. He's also
the vice president Legal Affairs at the Pacific Legal Foundation.
It is frustrating because you know, we're sitting here talking
about this and you've got, you know, the zoning, they've
got the crazy rent contrigue. For all of these stories
about stuff, and let's be honest, ninety nine point nine

(25:29):
percent of this takes place in blue cities that have
allowed their bureaucracy to become almost religion to slowing things down,
and it's that's more important than anything else. Where can
you move? What can you do? Like if you were
to tell somebody to, hey, I'd like to build a house,
where's the best place to go? What would you tell them?

Speaker 18 (25:48):
I mean, one way we're solving the problem is exporting
people the states where they're still allowing homes to be
built a Barta.

Speaker 17 (25:56):
Texas, Tennessee.

Speaker 18 (25:58):
But that's really not a solution because we shouldn't be
able to have our own children live in this state
and live in homes.

Speaker 17 (26:06):
You talk about the blue cities where these things are the.

Speaker 18 (26:08):
Worst, and it is so hyper critical because these policies
that we have are really hurting the constituencies of the
Blue Democrats the most because they claim to care about
poor people, working class people, but they're embarking on policies
that make it almost impossible to build and for working

(26:30):
class people to afford a.

Speaker 17 (26:32):
House to live.

Speaker 18 (26:33):
I if are you telling working people that if you
want to afford a home, you have to go to Texas,
you have to go to Florida. Those aren't Blue states.
So it's kind of social and economic suicide on the
part of the Blue states to basically tell their constituency
that they claim to care so much about that, well,
you know, we love the working class, but you just

(26:54):
can't live in our neighborhood, you can't live in our city,
you can't even live in our state.

Speaker 17 (26:59):
I mean me is the height of hypocrisy.

Speaker 2 (27:01):
I just it is. It is frustrating. I mean, you know,
I'm blessed. I live out here, you know live. I've
lived all over the country, and I've been fortunate enough.
I grew up in southern California, and I saw the
way it's changed, you know, like my mom, perfect example.
My mother lives in Cyprus, California. She's got a pretty
nice home, Jim, It's nothing spectacular. She couldn't afford to
buy her home today. There's just no way she could

(27:22):
do it. And she marvels at the fact that she
pays like two grand a month or twenty three and
a month for a mortgage that she got back in
nineteen eighty six or nineteen eighty nine, and the person
next to him pays like nine grand a month for
their mortgage, and they're right next to each other. And
it's because there hasn't been any new homes built in
that area in decades.

Speaker 18 (27:42):
Yeah, we have policy after policy, and I called some
book just one failed government policy after.

Speaker 17 (27:48):
Another that prevents new home building.

Speaker 18 (27:51):
I mean, whether it's from voting, whether it's fer environmental restrictions.

Speaker 17 (27:55):
Whether it's even the fees that.

Speaker 18 (27:57):
Governments and posted in California, if you want to build
a hasing unit, depending on where you live, you will
pay between twenty thousand and one hundred and fifty eight
thousand in fees for a single housing unit. I mean,
of course, costs will costs a lot of money, and
you don't allow things to build. Look, as I said
in the asset Supply and Demand, we're not meeting supply

(28:19):
and we're just really not quite waking up to the
magnitude of the problem. I've been litigating property road cases
for forty years j and I've been telling people for
a long time. Look, if we don't start to build
the homes that we need, we're going to have people
living in the streets. And people would look at me
like I was crazy. I said, we're going to turn
into a third world country, and people would say, you're nuts.

(28:41):
And now look at our streets. I mean, I hate
to say that I was right, but I still know
what the solution is. The solution is still to build
more homes where people want to live. And we have
to make builders of homes people that we embrace and
want to bring in our communities. Instead of treating developers
of the big Bolston bots to guard shopping people that

(29:02):
are just going to destroy the lives of people. No, people,
building homes make our lives better, So why not allow
homes to be built.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
It's a great book. Go check it out. And we
talk about all the time the issues in this country,
from the homeless to the housing crisis and everything in between,
the affordability. Love having you on James Berling new books
called Nowhere to Live, the Hidden Story of the American
Housing Crisis. Thanks so much for joining us.

Speaker 17 (29:26):
Minlis.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
Maybe government isn't the answer when it comes to the
housing crisis. Can you imagine paying one hundred and fifty
eight thousand dollars just in fees and you wonder why
people can't afford a house. That's before you ever break
ground on your home. That's why nobody can afford a
house for seven rathsberries Elizabeth three, two, three, five, three, eight,

Speaker 21 (31:16):
The way I came to the interview is the way
I go to the job.

Speaker 22 (31:19):
A lot of you girls go to the interview looking
like Marge Simpson and go to the job looking like
Patty and Selma.

Speaker 21 (31:26):
Not demure. I'm very modest. I'm very mindful.

Speaker 22 (31:29):
You see my shirt only a little chee che out,
not my chocho. Be mindful of why they hired you.
See how I do my makeup for work, Very demure,
very mindful. I don't come to work with a green
cut crease, don't look like a clown when I go
to work.

Speaker 21 (31:43):
I don't do too much. I'm very mindful of while
I'm at work.

Speaker 2 (31:47):
Oh my god, being Jimior. It's the new thing where
you get completely dressed up, no matter what you're doing,
very demure. And he I say he wearing makeup gets
very demurred. No che cheat or the cha cha. That's
the new trend today. I wore tuxedo to work. Did
you know I'm in short to the t shirt. That's
why I chose this job. I was played soccer in Europe.
That was my dream. I went as far as my

(32:08):
talent could take me, which wasn't very far. My drive
took me a lot further. But I will tell you
when I was done I'm like, all right, I need
to do something where I wear shorts and a T shirt.
Not demure, not demure. Indeed, speaking of dressing to impress,
you should try to impress the judge when you're there.
Although this kid wasn't there because they were in trouble. No, no, no,

(32:34):
this was a field trip that went awry.

Speaker 17 (32:36):
You sleep at home in your bed. Is that I'm
not a toy. I'm not gonna be played with.

Speaker 23 (32:40):
What started out as an informational field trip with the
greeting of Detroit Nonprofit Tuesday to the thirty six District
Court in front of Judge King.

Speaker 17 (32:49):
This is the very sis district court for the city
of Detroit. We do just about everything that happens.

Speaker 23 (32:55):
In the city Detroit, quickly turned into Judge King getting
visibly agitated over a sleeping student in his courtroom.

Speaker 17 (33:02):
He follow spop in my courtroom home more time and
putting you in the back instead.

Speaker 2 (33:06):
So this youngster, uh just kept snoozing, said, just kept
going and snoozing, And the judge was having none of it.
But the judge continued to give this youngster a chance.

(33:30):
Now it is a you're not on trial, Okay, you're
not and I think you know Judge King's name. He is.
I understand what he's trying to do, but she's not
on trial and maybe she didn't find the system law

(33:51):
as exciting as other people.

Speaker 23 (33:53):
Judge King had her removed from the courtroom, but he
told me that didn't fix her quote attitude, and that's
when he pulled out the jail uniform and handcuffs.

Speaker 24 (34:03):
That's not something that normally happens, but I felt compelled
to do it because I didn't like the child's attitude.

Speaker 23 (34:10):
King says he was trying to teach the teenager a
lesson on behavior and respect in court.

Speaker 24 (34:16):
I haven't been disrespected like that in a very long.

Speaker 2 (34:18):
Time, but you were. So he went for the whole thing,
the whole kid, the whole kaboodle. Sorry, tig her out,
get her jumpsuit, get her cuffs. Oh oh not. Everybody
was thrilled by this.

Speaker 23 (34:33):
He then threatened the girl with jail time.

Speaker 24 (34:36):
Was I really going to do that?

Speaker 2 (34:37):
Probably not?

Speaker 24 (34:38):
Could I have? Probably so, But that's not what I
want to do to a kid who's there on a
field trip.

Speaker 23 (34:42):
His methods on teaching the youth now raising questions within
the legal community.

Speaker 21 (34:47):
It's totally inappropriate.

Speaker 25 (34:49):
There were so many other ways to help that young
girl learn.

Speaker 23 (34:53):
The nonprofit running the Field Trip tells me in a
statement quote. Although the judge was trying to teach a
lesson of respect, his methods were unacceptable. The young lady
was traumatized by the judge's unnecessary disciplinary treatment and scolding.

Speaker 2 (35:09):
Scared straight. Remember that show, you guys, ever remember that show?
Did you ever see that show? So when they took
a bunch of kids, you know, between like thirteen and
sixteen seventeen, and they just essentially put him in a
room with a bunch of killers and just awful, I
mean guys in prison, prison like the Serious Prisoners three two, three, five,

(35:32):
three eight, twenty four, twenty three Chad Benson Show. And
the whole thing was, well, let us show you what
prisons really like, because you guys are going down a
path or you're gonna end up in here and it's
gonna be bad for you.

Speaker 23 (35:48):
The judge, standing by his methods, though, saying it was
all just to help children from being in his courtroom
later in life.

Speaker 24 (35:55):
Well, I think I was heavy handed in what I did. No,
I don't I'll do whatever used to be done. To
reach these kids and make sure that they don't end
up in front of me. So that was my own
version of scared.

Speaker 23 (36:06):
Straight and Judge King tells me that he has been
in contact with the girl's parents and that he does
hope to mentor her.

Speaker 2 (36:13):
We need more mentors. Single mom. We've talked about that
over and over again and the issues that happen. If
you're missening the show, grab the podcast Chat Benson Chat.

Speaker 1 (36:23):
This is the Chad Benson Show, Independent Thoughts, Independent Life.

Speaker 14 (36:53):

Speaker 26 (36:55):
Just a little bit unsteady, I think, especially with all
the crowds and things, and as much as sexual securities
like vumped up and things, it does make you a
little bit on edge.

Speaker 2 (37:04):
Those are people that are out front of Wembley getting
ready for the big concert, the day Swift concert, and
they're worried because of Islamic terrorism. That's why are you
ready for this? So the cost of going a lot
of Americans, a lot of other people have flown over
to Europe to watch. It was easier to get tickets.

(37:26):
It was cheaper in some cases to get tickets over there.
Still expensive, but cheaper. It's how crazy it is they're
selling tickets right now eighty percent discount. People are terrified
about what could potentially happen.

Speaker 27 (37:44):
So this concert's going to go on for the next
five days, ninety thousand fans expected to be there every
single night. Now the tickets are reportedly even discounted eighty percent.
Ever since what happened in Vienna, we know that three
teams were arrested right for these plots, and police and
authorities really saying that they believe that they became radicalized online,

(38:06):
so that is also extremely interesting, even pledging their allegiance
to terror groups like ISIS and al Qaeda. Police in
London saying, hey, we've surveyed the area, there are no threats,
and they say that this is really the safest place
to be as at the Wiley Stadium tonight.

Speaker 2 (38:22):
Yeah, I think it would be tough at this moment
in time to get anywhere near that place. They had
their moment, they missed it, and thank god they did.
Still haven't heard from Tease Swizzle herself. She's not come
out and said anything about it, which is interesting. You know,

(38:42):
you look at somebody like that and you think, man,
they got it all right. But the bubble she now
lives in is so walled off. She's not going to
the store by herself. You think about that for a second.
She's not going down the street to the store by

(39:02):
herself to get groceries. It just isn't happening now. Eventually,
you know, it'll slow down. But I remember meeting Michael
Jackson and the chaos around him, and there was nobody
there outside of his people, and it was it was,

(39:23):
first of all, a surreal I was working at a
reptile company and he came in and bought a bunch
of snakes and stuff. It's a very odd situation. But
we had to close everything down and we had to
meet him there at like a midnight or one in
the morning. They showed up late, and he just kind
of he didn't say a word, just walked in and
said hi, but he didn't talk to him. He just
pointed at stuff. They got his, you know. Then they

(39:44):
all took off, and later on that day they showed
up with a bunch of cash and white van and
we got everything for it. It was just but he couldn't
even when they were setting the whole thing up for
him to come. Look, it was like he was a prisoner.
So it's just weird to think, like you're so popular,

(40:07):
you've become a prisoner of your own fame. Odd. Odd. Indeed,
speaking of odd, last night, Donald Trump, people go to
the grocery store and they have less than half a
half a deal. In fact, I had something here. I
did have something. I would show you. Wait a minute.
I don't know if you've seen this. I used it once,
I have it, I do have it. Look at this.

(40:29):
Look at this. So this is Tic TACs, right. I
don't know if I liked the company. I've never met.
I have no idea.

Speaker 28 (40:36):
This so lucky.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
This says, look at all the television. This is the
greatest commercial.

Speaker 25 (40:40):
They ever had.

Speaker 2 (40:41):
But that's what happened. This is inflation. This is Tic Tac.
This is inflation. This is what's happened. I just happened
to have. Somebody gave me this one today. I said,
I think we'll put it up as an example of inflation.
So it was his Tic Tac thing. And and it's
kind of interesting but not the same. Is he getting

(41:08):
old and he is old. Let's be real. The age thing.
It's it's playing on people's minds because he had that,
he had that. I was I'm quicker, I'm sharper, I'm better,
I'm all of the things. Now the issue is landed
in his lap.

Speaker 25 (41:27):
Now the age issue is working against Donald Trump. Why
because Kamala Harris is now the Democratic nominee. Look at this,
just eleven percent of likely voters say Kamala Harris as
too old to be president with Donald Trump. Look at
this now, fifty eight percent of likely voters say Donald
Trump is too old to be president. Fifty eight percent
compared to the eleven percent for Kamala Harris. Very bad

(41:48):
news for Donald Trump. The messaging that Donald Trump and
his campaign have been putting forward earlier on this campaign
has been flipped upside down.

Speaker 2 (41:56):
There's no doubt about that. And he me anders at time.
I said it last, Dar, and I'll say it again.
There are times when you know, and part of it
is ADHD. You could totally tell he's all over the place,
you know, ooh squirrel, oh squirrel, I do that. But
he does me ander at times. It goes on way
too long. Man. If I was advising is people, look

(42:24):
thirty minutes. You don't need to go on any longer
than that, because then he starts to repeat himself over
and over again. He continues to go down the same thing,
but he's never gonna change. And you know I said
it last Dar, I'll say it again for the media,
for a lot of people out there, Joe Biden, was
that car that the dog had peed in, your friends

(42:47):
had thrown up in, your mother had it, your grandmother
had it. They passed it down to you, And at
one time it was a fine car. Now it's like, okay,
we're done with this. Trump was a good, solid car.
But then all of a sudden, you've got Kamala, who's
the new, fresh car and the thing that you were

(43:07):
using against everybody else who didn't have a car that
was worth a damn Well, guess what they feel. They've
got a better car, and nobody is saying anything negative
about her in the media. They're asking some questions, but
the eight thing she's got the new car smell comparatively
to him.

Speaker 29 (43:24):
Is it just about the age or is this about
the message the change that this might bring in.

Speaker 25 (43:29):
We talk about age, but I think age is also
a stand in for change, and this is a change election.
Look at this political or economic system in this country
needs at least major change. Look at this two thirds
of likely voters in the key battleground states of Michigan, Pennsylvania,
Wisconsin believe that in fact, the political and economic system
in this country needs at least major change. Just thirty

(43:51):
three percent believe that it needs minor or no change.
So the key nugget in this campaign is to be
the candidate of change. If you are the candidate of change,
you will win.

Speaker 2 (44:00):
And for her, she's a change, even though we have
no idea what she's about. Because when she ran a
two thousand you know night, you know she getting ready
to run for the presidency, and she's in the primaries.
She never made it to Iowa in the twenty twenty ras.
She never made it to Iowa. She was like fifth

(44:23):
in her own state. She was awful. But like the
pop star this manufactured. They said, all right, here's what
we're gonna do. We're gonna do this, this and this.
We got forty people back here producing the album, writing
the album. You go on stage, you lipsync everything we
tell you to do. You don't talk to anybody else.

(44:44):
You're Millie Vanilly. And at this moment in time, Millie
Vanilli is the new fresh car smell.

Speaker 25 (44:51):
The age issue is working against Donald Trump. Change issue
is now working against Donald Trump. Will bring the right
kind of change again, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin. Among likely voters,
look at this, Kamala Harris at fifty one percent. Close
by is Donald Trump at forty seven percent. What I
will note, Sarah is these numbers look identical basically to
what we see in the horse race, which was Harris

(45:11):
ahead by four points.

Speaker 2 (45:13):
And you're seeing that right here.

Speaker 25 (45:14):
And we'll bring the right kind of change Harris ahead
again by four points. So, all of a sudden, in
this campaign, a campaign that has been about age and
been about change, it was working for Donald Trump and
now it is working against him.

Speaker 2 (45:26):
And that is why Kamala Harris has all this mom
mo mentum, mo mentum. But she's still hiding and the
media kind of getting curious a little bit more about
is she ever gonna talk to us? This is Jim Shudo,

(45:47):
This is a This is I put together all the
times he asked the spokesperson for Kamala Harris's is is
she ever going to talk to anybody?

Speaker 10 (45:57):
Would it kill you guys to have a press conference?

Speaker 19 (45:59):
Wise? And she had a conference? Do you mind if
I cut in?

Speaker 11 (46:01):
I mean you know, a campaign rally's not a press conference.
Why hasn't she had a press conference? She's the vice president,
she can handle the questions.

Speaker 19 (46:08):
Why not do it? I don't.

Speaker 11 (46:09):
I don't want to, you know, belabor this, but one
interview before the end of the month. I mean, that's
that's not a lot. I mean, can you commit to
a press conference before the.

Speaker 19 (46:16):
End of the month.

Speaker 2 (46:19):
And if you think that's well, that's one. Here's John
Berman also CNN talking to another one of the spokes
folks for Kamala.

Speaker 12 (46:28):
It seems like she has time if she wanted to
do an interview with a member of the media or
do a news conference. Correct, there does appear to be
that time if she wanted.

Speaker 13 (46:39):
Well, look, she is set on the campaign trail that
she would be doing an interview at some point.

Speaker 2 (46:44):
She could do an.

Speaker 12 (46:45):
Interview today, I would think, you know, because she's not
out there today.

Speaker 2 (46:50):
What what do you mean she could do an interview today.
She's not ready because she's not going to give the okay.
They're going to hand select the person that gets to interview,
and that person will probably have to follow some rules
and I'm hoping that person says no. But I don't

(47:15):
know what to come because you're not going to Fox,
You're not going to go to anybody that's really going
to challenge her on any of these issues at all.
You're not gonna go to anybody who's gonna really come out.
And all they have to do right now is just
keep doing what they're doing, and when they are finally
feel like they're forced to answer questions, they'll handpick that person.

(47:37):
It'll be a softball interview and then you won't hear
about it, and they'll say, we have already done an interview,
We've done all this. It would pick up if she
fails in the debates, which I think Trump's the whole
thing right now is the debates are it because like
I said, I feel like his act is a little stale,

(48:00):
and because people don't care about the issues like they
used to. I think people look and just say, eh,
it's it's it's not resonating. And if you're a Trump supporter,
you're already there. Stop thinking about you, think about the
other people out there who you need to get to
get you over the line. Three two, three, five, three eight,

Speaker 6 (49:51):
NASA is still considering turning to SpaceX for help bringing
home Sunny Williams and Butcher willmore if Boeing Starliner is
not able and.

Speaker 2 (50:00):
A new update.

Speaker 6 (50:00):
NASA says it should have data to review next week
to decide how they'll get home. The two astronauts planned
on staying about a week. It's now but over two
months and could be much longer, says NASA's Joah Kaba.

Speaker 10 (50:11):
If Butcher and Sunny do not come home on Starliner
and they are kept to board the station, they will
have about eight months on.

Speaker 25 (50:17):
Orbit, and it's a fairly major discussion to decide about
whether or not we're going to have crew on board
star Liner for return.

Speaker 6 (50:24):
If they don't come back on star Liner, the astronauts
could be in space in the next year.

Speaker 2 (50:30):
Boeing is not having a good I don't know several years. Hey,
you remember that eight day tour. Yeah, and they're like
you should call elon We're like, that's the last thing
we want to do, but you should. You know what,
We'll get back to you. When are you going to
get back to him? I don't what are they going
to do? Right, They're out there floating around, Oh geez, horrible, horrible. Indeed,

(50:53):
are the Dems reaching out to influencers to go after
Donald Trump? The answer, of course is yes, and they're
paying apparently decent money even to smaller influencers too, try
to be influential.

Speaker 30 (51:07):
A lot of you guys said that they were paying
people to talk badly about Trump and to promote Paris
as a great candidate. Well, you're not going to believe
what this one creator posted about being contacted to create
anti Trump content for the Harris campaign.

Speaker 2 (51:20):
Check this out.

Speaker 31 (51:20):
Basically, what they're asking for is fifteen hundred dollars for
anti Trump.

Speaker 17 (51:24):
Content on TikTok.

Speaker 31 (51:26):
So they basically sent me this kind of like creator
brief with all the asks that they have and everything
and like dews and domes like don't show any form
of support for Donald Trump.

Speaker 17 (51:34):
And his allies. Glowed about.

Speaker 31 (51:35):
Harris and her allies attack Trump supporters for their intellectual
or personal values.

Speaker 2 (51:40):
Oh, intellectual and personal values. It's it kids, keep it personal.

Speaker 17 (51:44):
There we have it.

Speaker 30 (51:44):
It verifies what so many of you said. They're paying
people fifteen hundred dollars to create division online.

Speaker 31 (51:49):
They're basically creating division and paying I.

Speaker 30 (51:52):
Know this is a political tactic, but it's a last minute,
desperate tactic because this ticket needs to be propped up
as much as possible.

Speaker 2 (51:58):
There's no way with the.

Speaker 30 (51:59):
Way things have gone, the economy and the way everybody's
hurting right now, the way the wars are happening and
the borders open, the job numbers are terrible.

Speaker 8 (52:07):
People are just hurting.

Speaker 30 (52:08):
Probably to all the people who said this was happening,
you were.

Speaker 2 (52:10):
Right, Yeah, you were. I mean, you knew they were
going to because this is what happens. Three two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show. Is
your Twitter, tweet at us text the program Love hearing
from you on the Chad Benson Show. We talked about

(52:31):
it earlier today that they were fixing news headlines and
running them essentially as political ads, to make it look
like that the news was agreeing with whatever position they
were taking on a certain issue. Hey, those medals in
the Olympics. They suck, all right.

Speaker 32 (52:52):
So these Olympic medals look great when they're brand new,
but after letting it sit on my skin with some
sweat a little bit, and then letting my friends wear
it over the weekend, they're apparently not as high quality
as you would think. I mean, look at that thing
slicking rough. Even the front it's starting to chip off

(53:15):
a little. So, yeah, I don't know, Olympic medals you
gotta have. You gotta step up the quality a little bit.

Speaker 2 (53:22):
Oh my gosh, it's gorgeous.

Speaker 23 (53:24):
It's gorgeous.

Speaker 8 (53:25):
It is wearing a little bit.

Speaker 13 (53:27):
Oh yeah, this is this is this is a solid home.

Speaker 2 (53:33):
That was our skateboarder who won a bronze and a
lot of mayor who also won a bronze for the
rugby team, and uh yeah, the medals are falling apart.
They're supposed to be sustainable because this was a sustainable Olympics,
and uh they're not that sustainable. Just much like the Olympics,
they're temporary. The good news is, guys, you get to

(53:54):
keep the memories of the Olympics. It's not going to
cost you anything, okay, three two, three, five, three eight
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Shows, your Twitter,
tweet ats, text, the program. A lot of stuff still
to get to talk a little bit about your job
and your heart stress, what's to do to you? A
bunch of other stuff to get to some political stuff,
some other stuff that's not so political. This is the

(54:16):
Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (54:19):
Such Chad Benson Show, Independent Thoughts, independent life.

Speaker 14 (54:44):

Speaker 8 (54:46):
Hi everyone, ray Gun here. I just want to start
by thanking all the people who have supported me.

Speaker 28 (54:55):
I really appreciate the positivity and I'm glad I was
able to bring some joy into your lives.

Speaker 8 (55:03):
That's what I hoped. I didn't realize that.

Speaker 28 (55:07):
That would also open the door to so much hate,
which has frankly been pretty devastating. When I went out
there and I had fun, I did take it very seriously.
I worked my butt off preparing for the Olympics and
I gave my all truly. I'm on it to have

(55:31):
been a part of the Australian Olympic team, and to
be part of Breaking's Olympic debut. What the other athletes
have achieved has just been phenomenal.

Speaker 2 (55:44):
That's Rachel Reagan, who's of course, breaking bad and there
has been a petition. People are pissed because they're like,
you didn't take it seriously. You who use this to
make a mockery of something, and for what That's what

(56:06):
people want to know. But be honest, right, like you're this,
you're a you know, you're a professor and you're you know,
you teach like you know, theoretical dance when it comes
to the patriarchy or whatever. Why why did you do this?
She said that she knew early on. I can't do
any of the moves the other girls can do. Why
are you there? So people are pissed because they're like,

(56:26):
they're people who are further down the economic ladder, who
are in positions where they were probably more deserving. And
you hopped around like a kangaroo.

Speaker 8 (56:42):
A bit of a fun fact for you.

Speaker 2 (56:44):
I'm not going to break downs.

Speaker 8 (56:45):
There are actually no points in breaking.

Speaker 28 (56:49):
If you want to see how the judges thought I
compared to my opponents, you can actually see the comparison
percentages across the five criteria on Olympic dot calm.

Speaker 8 (57:00):
All the results are there.

Speaker 2 (57:02):
Yeah, she said, the sport has taken a massive reputation
hit voice concerns over future funding and opportunities after Breaking
was made a mockery of, and people are showing other
dances she did that were better than what she did there.
So my only thought is you did this on purpose

(57:25):
because I've seen other dances. No, you're not as good
as any of them. The reality is they can do
all the moves, and she said, look, they can do
the power moves right, that's where they do the handstance
and the flips and all these kind of things. You
mean to tell me in your nation, you couldn't find
anybody else like this, But the stuff that you did
in some of the other videos was way better. So

(57:46):
did you just figure I'm going to lose, so I'm
going to make a mockery of this. Jeez, what a
nightmare because now it's not going to be back, and
it's all because of you white women. I'm telling you, guys,
white women, liberal white women the worst, the worst. Hey,

(58:06):
if you like me, you've got kids. Maybe some of
you have younger kids. I have a soon to be
six year old, but I will tell you the iPad,
the tablet, the attitude.

Speaker 33 (58:21):
Outbursts, temper tantrums, unregulated emotions. Canadian researchers who studied more
than three hundred preschoolers for a study published in JAMMA,
the Journal of the American Medical Association, found all those
behaviors can be exacerbated by excessive screen us. The researchers
say children under six are more prone to those kinds
of behaviors when they interact on phones and tablets more

(58:41):
than with their parents, friends, or siblings. The researchers did
conduct their study during the pandemic, and they did not
consider the quality of what the preschoolers were watching.

Speaker 2 (58:50):
Which is important. So my daughter can once in a
while she gets that way. She also gets angry because
sometimes she won't eat for a while. But I see it,
you know. She her tablet broke a couple weeks ago
and we got our new tablet. But for like the
week without it was she was it was totally different.

(59:13):
At times, still got angry. And there are certain shows
she watches and I'm like, I don't like it because
she's especially some of the little girls that are saying
agent and their attitudes are horrible. She can get that way,
and I think, you know, it's about being a parent,
It's about monitoring what is going on because we've now
allowed the electronics of the world to be the basically

(59:35):
the babysitters the nanny's in many cases.

Speaker 34 (59:36):
Parah Butler is a busy at LAMBTA mom who occasionally
lets three year old Oliver play on an iPad.

Speaker 35 (59:42):
When I need a break, mainly in the mornings when
I'm trying to unload the dishwasher, and in the afternoons
and I'm trying to cook dinner.

Speaker 34 (59:50):
Do you try to limit screen time with Oliver on
the iPad?

Speaker 35 (59:54):
Of course I try, yes, as best as I can.

Speaker 8 (59:56):
It's hard.

Speaker 35 (59:57):
It is hard. It is hard, especially when you're mom.
You just need a few minutes of a break.

Speaker 34 (01:00:02):
Some say moms and deads are using tablets as a
digital pacifier to soothe children as they cope with parenting challenges.

Speaker 2 (01:00:11):
It's true, right, you just they're crazy. You want to
occupy them. You know you've got stuff to do. So
here watch this.

Speaker 34 (01:00:22):
To soothe children as they cope with parenting challenges.

Speaker 2 (01:00:26):
But at what cost?

Speaker 34 (01:00:27):
A new study finds preschool aged children logging seventy five
minutes or more of daily screen time displayed more anger
and frustration as they got older and had trouble regulating emotions,
which often resulted in parents giving them even more screen time.

Speaker 2 (01:00:42):
By age five, you.

Speaker 36 (01:00:43):
Immediately avoid a tech retentionum, but in the long term,
repeated use of this kind of strategy does not allow
children to develop strong internal emotion regulation skills.

Speaker 2 (01:00:55):
Ooh, my little janet Jeer has that at times. Although
we say this, Charlie will sometimes she at night in particular,
she likes to watch it to kind of fall asleep too.
Maybe isn't the best thing, but she will. Because we've
got a trampoline, like one of the little ones. She'll
jump on that thing for like an hour and then

(01:01:15):
she'll want to swim. And she's kind of got the
same thing I had when I was a kid when
computers were first coming out way back in the day,
and even video games, I had a limit because I
had to get my wiggles out. But it is easy,
Let's be real, parents, it's convenient, and we get sucked

(01:01:35):
in on it too when it comes to our phones
and everything. It's so easy to do and it's just
easy to go. Hey, occupy this kid.

Speaker 8 (01:01:45):
What's his reaction when you take the iPad away? He
is not happy.

Speaker 35 (01:01:48):
He is not a fan of getting the pad taken.

Speaker 21 (01:01:50):
Away at all.

Speaker 34 (01:01:52):
Butler, who has three children, says she and her husband
briefly took tablets away from their kids, and they do
it more off.

Speaker 35 (01:01:58):
They saw their behavior improve all around, and they didn't
really seem to mind too much. They found other things
to do with their time. So all in all, it
was a positive experience.

Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
That's good. Again, it's finding the balance. It is because
one thing I will say is my daughter who will
be six, She is amazing already on the tablet in
the computers and she zooms around. I mean she's so far.
I mean it's incredible, and how fast she picks it
up and you know where to go to find certain

(01:02:30):
things and how it is awesome. But it's finding the balance.
And as a parent sometimes that's tough because sometimes you're exhausting.
You got everything in the world going on, and what's
the easiest thing to do at this moment in time? Here?

Speaker 37 (01:02:41):
iPad So, how much screen time should a young child get?

Speaker 3 (01:02:45):
Well?

Speaker 37 (01:02:45):
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends for preschool children to
and up only up to an hour a day, and
it should be educational in nature.

Speaker 2 (01:02:55):
That's tough, and what's educational in nature like what is
I mean, it's is it just the ABC song? I mean,
I don't you know you get to ask the question
because it's are you learning something with some things and
other things? And we know because, like I said, we
have steered away from a few of the people on
there that were just like when she watches them, she

(01:03:17):
gets their attitude, which every child, like even on television
when we were kids, if you watch somebody in a
certain way, you would get that kind of attitude. You
don't want that. Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four,
twenty three at Chad Benson's show, as your Twitter tweet
at us text the program, some of you are mad
at me. A couple of you said you're not working

(01:03:38):
hard enough to get Trump elected. I'm gonna tell you
guys this, and I remind everybody this. My job is
not to get Donald Trump elected. That's his job. That's
his job, just like the media's job is not to
get Vice President Harris elected. That's her job. And it's
crazy that everybody thinks, because you have a platform, your

(01:03:58):
job is to do this for that because your beliefs
align more than with the other side. It's not my
job to get Donald Trump elected. It isn't that should
be him delivering a message. And I'll say this, if
you're one of those people out there who feel like
it's my job, you you're missing the situation here. You're

(01:04:19):
missing the entire conversation. The conversation for Donald Trump is
who are the people I need to help me get
over the line and what do I have to do
to get them on my side? Three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benton Show,

Hashtag me too, hashtag immigration reforms, hashtag help.

Speaker 8 (01:05:59):
I'm trapped a hashtag.

Speaker 20 (01:06:00):
Factory and I can't get out the Chat Benson Show.

Speaker 8 (01:06:04):
Okay, listen, I've confirmed it.

Speaker 23 (01:06:05):
My husband no longer hears about me.

Speaker 21 (01:06:07):
Okay.

Speaker 38 (01:06:07):
So this morning when I woke up, I woke up
in a really bad mood. Okay, I don't know why
I woke up in a bad mood, but I was
just in a bad mood and I wanted to talk
to him about it.

Speaker 23 (01:06:13):
I really did.

Speaker 38 (01:06:13):
So when he asked me the first time, he said,
what's wrong with you? You're acting like you're in a
bad mood or something. I said, no, I'm fined, okay.
So then he asks again. He was like, no, I
can tell something's wrong with you. What's going on? Is
or something wrong? And I said no, I'm fine. And
then he never asked me again. He never asked again.
And what really, what hurts the most is that I
was going to tell him on that third time. I
was going to tell him the third time that he asked,
and then he just must not care. He must not

(01:06:35):
give a single.

Speaker 2 (01:06:37):
Oh my, he doesn't care about her because he only
asked her twice what's wrong with her crappy attitude? And
she wouldn't tell him. But on the third time, because
he's a mind reader, and he said, screw it, I'm
not even going to ask her. He didn't, and now
she's pissed what's wrong with me?

Speaker 38 (01:06:55):
Because he didn't ask for the third time. He did
not persist with the questions.

Speaker 2 (01:06:58):
He asked why, and he let it go.

Speaker 8 (01:07:00):
Who does that?

Speaker 23 (01:07:01):
Who does that?

Speaker 39 (01:07:02):
I'll tell you who does that? Somebody who doesn't care
about their wife, that's who does that. Somebody's probably cheating
our somebody who is preoccupied talking to somebody else on it.
He hasn't even texted me today to ask me what
was wrong, And he hasn't let it consume his thoughts
and been consuming mine. I've been done well all day.

Speaker 2 (01:07:13):
She's awful. It's probably having so many panic attacks. It's
probably having heart issues. Speaking of heart issues? New are
you ready for this? A new study? I know if
they don't do enough studies, They've done a new one
about work and your heart.

Speaker 33 (01:07:31):
Researchers from Canada studied about six thousand people examining the
stressors they faced at work, things like conflicting demands, type deadlines,
and a lack of autonomy, finding that when those pressures
are high, the chance of atrial fibrillation can double. Atrial
fibrillation is an irregular heart rhythm that can lead to
stroke and eventually heart failure. Doctors say having flexible hours,
balancing work and home life, and exploring calming techniques like

(01:07:55):
meditation even at work can help.

Speaker 2 (01:07:57):
Okay, so if you're at work today, okay, you and
you're driving a truck and you think yourself, I'm stressed. Meditation,
Just do it right there, see how it goes. That's
not no. Those things all sound like what everybody wants,
Like I would like flexible hours. Well you've got to
be here between nine and five. That's just the way
I want like flexible hours, And I want this, this
and this. We'd all like those things, we would, and

(01:08:21):
they're important. By the way, I think we've put way
too much emphasis on careers, works, jobs. But and let
me tell you something. When you go look at this study,
a vast majority it is lands on the man's shoulders.

Speaker 29 (01:08:36):
The psychosocial stressor is the job strain that was increasing
people's risk of this irregular heartbeat by eighty three percent,
the effortword and balances forty four percent. And when people
have both of those, that was a ninety seven percent
increased risk of this irregular heart rhythm, which can lead
to heart failure, strokes, and cloths.

Speaker 2 (01:08:52):
We don't want that. We don't want that.

Speaker 29 (01:08:55):
If you are working, you're having a particular stressful week,
to kind of figure out those strategies to calm yourself down.
Somebody I achieve that work life balance because it is
so incredibly important for your heart health, as is leading
a healthy lifestyle.

Speaker 17 (01:09:07):
Making sure you're.

Speaker 29 (01:09:07):
Sleeping, you're eating healthy, and you're avoiding alcohol and cigarettes.
All of it works together and it's extremely beneficial and
protective for your heart, help you live a longer life.

Speaker 2 (01:09:15):
Okay, so massive amounts of cocaine, cheap women, and dangerous stunts.
Don't do those. Don't What should I do? Doc?

Speaker 29 (01:09:26):
People need to breathe and get their work priorities in order.

Speaker 2 (01:09:30):
All right, breathe, work priorities in order.

Speaker 29 (01:09:36):
It's extremely important that this study raises awareness and people
just find their own stress busting activities and you go
after it and make sure you take a deep breath.
Don't get too hyped up over work, because your life
is a lot more important.

Speaker 2 (01:09:48):
There you go. That's why you said, don't do the cocaine.
He didn't say that. Speaking of death, were we now
top ten causes of death in America?

Speaker 13 (01:10:02):
No?

Speaker 26 (01:10:03):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:10:04):
Are you ready for him?

Speaker 28 (01:10:05):
Now?

Speaker 2 (01:10:06):
There's a lot of factors in these Where are we
gonna start? Number ten? COVID nineteen, COVID nineteen it was
number one for a while, not anymore. Chronic liver disease
at number nine, and cirrhosis ooh, it was tenth on
the list last year and is moving its way up.
Kidney disease at number eight, Number seven, is diabetes, Alzheimer's.

(01:10:32):
Number six, Number five chronic lower respiratory disease, emphysema, asthma,
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is it's nasty. I mean, you
don't think about stuff like that, but that's like if
because everybody thinks they die of like one or two things,

(01:10:54):
but no, chronic lower respiratory disease. Number four is essentially strokes,
cerebro vascular diseases, strokes, things like that. Number four. Number
three accidents and unintentional injuries. So number deaths every year

(01:11:16):
about two hundred and twenty two thousand, about sixty two
deaths per one hundred thousand falling off ladders, drug overdoses,
car accidents, et cetera. Number two cancer one hundred and
forty three per one hundred thousand. About six hundred and
fourteen thousand people die every year from cancer, and number

(01:11:37):
one about one hundred and sixty two people per hundred thousand.
Over six hundred and eighty thousand people die from heart disease.
What we were just talking about stress. Some of these
can be absolutely avoided or pushed out longer, things like Alzheimer's.
That's kind of tough because you don't you know, is

(01:11:57):
our head injuries part of that? It's possible falling car
accidents again, those are issue, but diabetes in particular, the
issues that come with it, heart disease, things like that.
A lot of these things we can work on. Three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chadminton Show.
Is your Twitter tweet at us text to the program

(01:12:22):
coming up in the third hour? Is America really going
to fall apart if either one of these candidates win?
Because I hear that all the time that it's over,
I'm going to give you my perspective. Oh you are, yes,
I are. Got a lot of other stuff, including what's trending.

(01:12:45):
Talk a little bit about that as well. Take a
quick look to see what's happening at the Taylor Swift concert.
Make sure everything's going on over there, okay, because you
don't want to see something crazy happening although it's supposed
to be the safest place in Britain right now? Is
the Tailor Swift Concert? A lot of other things to
get to you missed any show, Read the podcast Chad
Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (01:13:05):
This is the Chad Benson Show. Independent thoughts independent life.

(01:13:35):

Speaker 10 (01:13:37):
Would it kill you, guys to have a press conference?

Speaker 19 (01:13:39):
Why isn't she had a press conference? Do you mind
if I cut in?

Speaker 11 (01:13:42):
I mean, you know, a campaign rally is not a
press conference. Why isn't she had a press conference? She's
the vice president, she can handle the questions. Why not
do it?

Speaker 19 (01:13:49):
I don't want to, you know, belabor this, but one
interview before the end of the month. I mean, that's
that's not a lot.

Speaker 11 (01:13:54):
I mean, can you commit to a press conference before
the end of the month.

Speaker 2 (01:13:58):
Jem Shoho CNN? Would it kill you guys to do
a press conference? Would it? Why would she? They're starting
to ask questions CNN again, John Berman, It.

Speaker 12 (01:14:18):
Seems like she has time if she wanted to do
an interview with a member of the media or do
a news conference. Correct, there does appear to be that
time if she wanted, well, look she has.

Speaker 13 (01:14:29):
Sat on the campaign trail that she would be doing
an interview at some point.

Speaker 2 (01:14:34):
She could do an.

Speaker 12 (01:14:34):
Interview today, I would think, you know, because she's not
out there today.

Speaker 2 (01:14:39):
Why would you at this moment in time, you feel
like you're winning, got everything going for you. They're asking questions.
Eventually the heat will get too too much. Yesterday Dana Perino.

Speaker 19 (01:14:54):
Bake it till you make it.

Speaker 40 (01:14:56):
I would also say this, if it's working for you,
why change it? So's couldn't she get through the next
two days without doing an interview? Yeah, and then they're
going to see her a lot next week during the convention.
But you can keep it going for another at least
ten days probably, and then maybe she sits down with
an interviewer, maybe like the Monday or the Tuesday after
the convention and tries to get some sort of nice
run into Labor day. She will talk to the media

(01:15:18):
at some point. It's like, it's not like she never will.

Speaker 2 (01:15:22):
There's no reason to. She's a pop star. She's manufactured. Okay,
she is. She's a manufactured pop star. They said we're
gonna go with this one, and then they put her
together and they've got a team of writers behind and
they've got a team of marketers behind her, and they've
got all of these things behind her, and she's Milly Vanilli.

(01:15:44):
She's not even singing her own songs at this point
in time. They've changed it up. She's like, I wrote
a good song. I think you're gonna like it. They're like, nope,
sing this and that's it. But these aren't my words.
Mimic these things. And she does a great job. I've
seen the speeches. I've seen what she does. She does

(01:16:06):
a damn fine job entertaining. That's it. That's all you
got to do, just entertain.

Speaker 40 (01:16:15):
The media is starting to pay attention to me. The
Washington Post editorial board had a whole list of questions
or like, here's all these things we would love to
ask her. The media is not pressing her because they're
not able to get to her. But also President Trump,
he has to make the case against her because the
media is not going to do it.

Speaker 2 (01:16:29):
Like media is not going to just want I said
last hour, because I had several of you go, you
don't like Trump anymore. You're not helping him win. It's
not my job to help him win.

Speaker 7 (01:16:38):
Nope.

Speaker 2 (01:16:40):
My job is simple tell you the truth, the observations
I see, based on the data I get, and based
on the fact that you know. One of my gifts
is I'm able to read the room, if you will.
And he's a bit on the struggle bus he is
is it is the act? Old? Is it? I mean,

(01:17:05):
you know, she's got the new car. Smell is the
act told you go to see a comedy show, right,
You've seen the special. You go see a comedy show
because they're coming through your city, and you're like, I
could recite all of the words to his show. He
needs to figure out how to win it. She needs

(01:17:26):
to figure out how to win right now. She's got
this runway that we've never seen before. That's the media's fault,
and they're starting to ask questions, you know, like, hey,
maybe you should sit down and do an interview. I don't.
I don't. Maybe maybe, like maybe talk to one of
us and she will right like she's going to, but

(01:17:53):
you know, why should she at this point in time.
It's about the vibe, baby, I.

Speaker 18 (01:17:59):
Mean, honestly, I'm not too into politics.

Speaker 19 (01:18:01):
I'm just here for the vibe.

Speaker 5 (01:18:04):
Becoming the first female vice president being a good person.

Speaker 7 (01:18:08):
Yeah, I mean, I don't know. He's really good for women.

Speaker 5 (01:18:16):
Harris is there with the energy. She has a lot
of enthusiasm, so it's important to get behind her.

Speaker 2 (01:18:24):
Like I say that right now, she's awful. Any of
these people they're gonna they're gonna vote. So no matter
how hard you you you you know how serious you
take all of this, how much you get into this,
How much are you that person's gonna cancel your vote?
Because I'm just here for the vibe, man, that's all.

(01:18:46):
I'm here for. What's her great accomplishment? She's a vagina. Oh,
that's it. And if you want to see what her
greatest accomplishment is, it's not hard. She's been in politics
for a very long time. She was an attorney general

(01:19:08):
of a state, she's been a senator. It's not hard.
These people can't even find something because they're not looking. Why,
because the vibe is so good, man, It's about the vibe.
It's about the vibe. It's all it's about, baby, it's
the vibe. Chris Selisa used to be on CNN It's

(01:19:29):
got a cool blog now, was on News Nation last
night and what he said here is is maybe the
truest thing that has been said in quite a long time.
He's a truth teller. Kids. One of the truest things
right here.

Speaker 4 (01:19:48):
I'm not sure the issues were ever central to how
people make up their mind about a president of the
United States. I think it is always a personality contest first.

Speaker 2 (01:20:00):
And what's real about that is simple. You're gonna have
x amount of people to support you because of the
issues that and they know what those are, right, but
your pro life, pro choice, immigration, economy, et cetera, et cetera.
You're gonna have x amount of people there, X amount
of people there for the people in the middle who
maybe like a little bit of both right people on

(01:20:22):
the some of the people on the left like some
of Trump's policies can't stand them. Some of the people
on the right, maybe they're a little pro choice, can't
stand some of the attitude Trump has. And then it
comes down to, you know, when you're a kid, tiebreaker
goes to the runner. Personality is the tiebreaker in this situation.

(01:20:45):
And that's why the new car smell is winning over
at least at this moment in time. But I was
listening to if you guys ever have a chance, Mark Halprin,
If you ever have a chance, he does these things
called two ways where he's got essentially and you can

(01:21:05):
and you get to participate. Everybody watches it. If you
have a chance, it gives you a chance to participate,
ask questions. He'll even ask you questions. It brings on
everybody and anybody in the political sphere. But he said this,
He goes, if you think it's over for Trump, you're wrong.
And if you think it is an easy win for Harris,

(01:21:29):
you're wrong. Now, if the race was done today and
we voted, she's gonna win. That being said, there's a
lot to come, including the fact at some point in time,
not only she gonna have to debate, she's gonna have
to speak to people, and the first interviewer too completely manufactured.
They might as well hire actors, but she will have

(01:21:53):
to answer some questions. And they're hiding her, no doubt
about that. I think they are hiding her as much
as they can.

Speaker 4 (01:22:03):
She is getting a massive amount of positive press without
doing much of anything in terms of actually talking to
the media.

Speaker 2 (01:22:10):
Look at the cover of Time magazine.

Speaker 4 (01:22:12):
I think the headline is her time and there's a
you know, a very nice drawing for I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:22:17):
She couldn't really script it a lot better than that.
They're hiding her. That's all they have to do until
they don't, and they'll cross that bridge when they get there.
The goal is if I put so much room between

(01:22:41):
Trump and her in this short runway, even if she's exposed,
it might be too late. Think of it like this.
We just finished watching the Olympics, and think of it
in this way. Your three fastest runners amazing. The person

(01:23:07):
that's gonna anchor not the fastest. The goal is, let's
put so much daylight between us and the second place
team that when we hand that baton off to the
anchor fast, there's so much room that even if they

(01:23:37):
have their best race ever, they're not gonna be able
to catch him. So even if she talks a month
from now for real where she gets challenged and not
one of those fake interviews that by then people have
already made up their mind and the distance is so great.

(01:23:59):
That's why Trump the act he has right now, it's stale.
You better start coming out with something new, because right
now you feel a little bit like Gallagher. I don't
really want to watch you smashed watermelons all day. Come
up with some new stuff. It's not very nice chat.
Remember Gallagher's brother stole his act. It's a crazy story.

(01:24:21):
Bristophil and I just talking about that all the time.
His brother stole his act, and then they suit each
other and they basically split America in half. Where one
Gallagher could do it on one side of the country
or the other. Gallagher did on the other. Fro'm correct

Speaker 15 (01:29:33):
President Minush of Chaffique has abruptly stepped down and turned
in her letter of resignation. She will no longer serve
as president of the university and now she wrote a
letter to the school community, sing in part quote, I

and treats everyone with fairness and compassion. It has been
distressing for the community, for me as president and on

a personal level, to find myself, colleagues and students the
subject of threats and abuse.

Speaker 2 (01:30:00):
Is that really what she wanted to say? Or did

Yeah, and with everybody coming back to campus and the
kids are back from their vacations, where they were all
over Europe doing whatever they were doing, just with their
horrible lives back at it is what they said they're
going to do. They're planning to protest, and it's it's
not going anywhere. We're going to talk a bit about
that a little bit later, because we touched on it earlier.
About Chicago next week. What is that going to look like?

(01:30:40):
Because if you didn't see what happened last night with

Speaker 14 (01:31:25):

Speaker 2 (01:31:27):
The housing crisis Real? Is it not real? You got
homeless on the streets everywhere? Joining us now is James
Berling is the author of a new book, Nowhere to Live,
The Hidden Story of the American Housing Crisis. Is also
the vice president of Legal Affairs at the Pacific Legal Foundation.
And there's so many places we could start Jim when
it comes to this housing issue, and let's first start

(01:31:51):
with California is a perfect example of the insanity that's
out there. You've got homeless people everywhere, but their housing
issue is they shouldn't be on the streets.

Speaker 17 (01:32:01):
Yeah, they shouldn't be on the streets.

Speaker 18 (01:32:03):
They should be in institutions where they can get the
help that they need to get out.

Speaker 17 (01:32:09):
Of their addictions through their mental illnesses.

Speaker 18 (01:32:11):
The poor people shouldn't be on the street, living in
their cars and walking and working in.

Speaker 17 (01:32:16):
The walmart during the day. They should be able to
afford homes.

Speaker 18 (01:32:19):
Just like thirty or forty years ago, working people could
afford homes and virtually wall places in California. But we
have made it so difficult to build new hazard. The
price has gone up and up and up. The fight
can't be demand, and people that are on the edge
really are losing their homes and they're going out onto
the streets. Some people in the streets have whole other

(01:32:42):
set of problems alluded to at the beginning, But there
are other people on the streets and living in cars
and doubling up.

Speaker 17 (01:32:50):
These people just can't afford a place to live.

Speaker 2 (01:32:53):
And let's talk. Listen. Now, let's get into the nitty
gritty of the housing nightmare. I was reading an article
the other day, maybe you saw it. A couple California,
you know, Northern California, starter house. They make two hundred
fifty thousand dollars a year. Starterhouse would have cost them
about five or six thousand dollars a month. After everything's

(01:33:14):
said and done, they had about eleven twelve thousand dollars
left over. It was too much for them to risk.
It's insane to think the fact that you can make
a quarter of a million dollars and you can't even
afford a house that's a starter home.

Speaker 17 (01:33:28):
In today's world, No, it is absolutely nice, and people
with children are finding out that they're grown children with
good jobs.

Speaker 18 (01:33:35):
Like I have a son who has a good job
in Newport Beach. He can't possibly afford a home, even
with a really nice job.

Speaker 17 (01:33:44):
He is simply.

Speaker 18 (01:33:47):
Living with roommates like so many other people in their
dirties are today because.

Speaker 17 (01:33:51):
It costs so much. I mean, look what I was
coming up, and I was in my twenties.

Speaker 18 (01:33:56):
I was able to buy a starter home nine hundred
square eat for twenty thousand dollars. I thought that was
a whole heart on my feedback then, But today a
hass like that it would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Speaker 17 (01:34:09):
And there is no reason at that so much other
than the.

Speaker 18 (01:34:13):
Fact we're not building in the homes to make the
demands of the population.

Speaker 17 (01:34:17):
Puts on us.

Speaker 2 (01:34:18):
Talk anyway. James Briling, the author of Nowhere to Live,
The Hidden Story of the American Housing Crisis, let's talk
about perfect example is environmental regulation. There's so much of
that stuff. Regulation in general, from zoning and everything else,
makes it virtually impossible to build anything anywhere, especially in
areas where you've got a lot of people, Southern California

(01:34:39):
and northern California, New York places like that. It is
so ridiculous because you look around and they're like, we
got to fix the housing crisis. It's simple allow people
to build.

Speaker 18 (01:34:49):
Of course, but if you try to build a home
in some of the coastal areas, and California is from
center for this, you're guaranteed to get one lawsuit after
another lawsuit after another lawsuit. One of the lawsuits may
be filed by the local NIMBI, not by backyard person,
just not wanting to have their view obstructed across the street.

(01:35:11):
Another lawsuit may be filed by an environmental group worried
about some endangered plant or some endangered bogy. But after
those lawsuits are taken care of, someone could fill in
behind them and suit on another environmental ground. Look to
do an environmental impact statement, you have to consider about
one hundred different things. Your environmental impact statements can cost

(01:35:32):
hundreds of thousands of dollars, sometimes millions.

Speaker 17 (01:35:35):
If it's a big project.

Speaker 18 (01:35:36):
And anybody you, I, or anybody on the street can
open up an environmental impact report, find something wrong with it,
and I not die it properly, A keynot cross. You know,
one species, you only had ten pages to talk about it,
visould about fifteen, and you can get a judge and
stop the project, and stop the project over and over

(01:35:58):
and over again.

Speaker 17 (01:35:58):
I mean, it's a nigation nightmare.

Speaker 18 (01:36:01):
If you are some party simply trying to build homes
in California, and if you can't build the homes in
California and other states of similar laws, we're not going
to meet supply and prices go up. I mean, we
have the laws. Supply and demand. It applies in the
United States. It applies everywhere in the world. I mean
North Korea wasn't able to repeal the laws supply and demand,

(01:36:23):
as well as finding out they can't, and our California legislature,
I think one of their few groups, I think we
can repeal the laws supply and demand.

Speaker 17 (01:36:30):
But Chad, they can't.

Speaker 2 (01:36:32):
No, No, they can't, and they're never going to be
able to the only way you're going to do that
is if you tell people they have to leave and
try to make everything hey, one house for every person,
which is again something you can't do U okay of
all the care and there's plenty of chaos that goes
on in this, you know, from San Francisco to New
York and everywhere else. The nimbi's all of those things.

(01:36:53):
There's got to be ways around this, and I'm hoping
AI in the future is going to solve a lot
of this to be able to go through the paper
because that is a big issue in California. When you
see a place like California and people are going to
go build a house, the paperwork, the amount of time
you wait in line, the amount of time that you
have to go through all these things is in many cases,
as much as it is to build the house, there's

(01:37:15):
got to be ways in the future that this is
going to be made easier so stuff can be made
more affordable.

Speaker 18 (01:37:20):
Well, Jeff, I'm not sure because I think you're assuming
that the paperwork is.

Speaker 17 (01:37:24):
There in order to get more information and to make
sure we build better houses.

Speaker 18 (01:37:28):
But I think that a lot of cases, the paperwork
burbons that we have are designed to slow it strom
down from building has I mean, the environmental community loves
massive amounts of paperwork because it doesn't it means things
won't get built. So if you think AI is going
to help with paperwork, I am sure that the environmental
community and those that are like the suit to stop

(01:37:49):
projects will also get AI to help them figure out
ways of finding something else throng with the project to
go to court and look core. You know on page
three thousand, nine hundred and twenty two of the AI
generated report, there's something that our AI found wrong and
you have.

Speaker 17 (01:38:06):
To stop the project.

Speaker 18 (01:38:07):
So until we get rid of the paperwork requirements, until
we have some real permit screenlining, until we create meaningful
exemptions to having to go through these environmental reviews when
people simply want to build homes that meet zoning codes
and that kind of thing. Until that happens, we're going
to continue to be in the escalating crisis we're in today.

Speaker 2 (01:38:30):
Talking to James Merlin, he's the author of Nowhere to Live,
The Hidden Story of the American Housing Crisis, is also
the vice president Legal Affairs at the Pacific Legal Foundation.
It is frustrating because you know, we're sitting here talking
about this and you've got, you know, the zoning, they've
got the crazy rent contric all of these stories about stuff,
and let's be honest, ninety nine point nine percent of

(01:38:50):
this takes place in blue cities that have allowed their
bureaucracy to become almost religion to slowing things down down,
and that's more important than anything else. Where can you move?
What can you do? Like if you want to tell
somebody to hay, I'd like to build a house, where's
the best place to go? What would you tell them?

Speaker 18 (01:39:09):
I mean, one way we're solving the problem is exporting
people the states where they're still allowing homes to be built.

Speaker 17 (01:39:16):
Larida, Texas, Tennessee.

Speaker 18 (01:39:19):
But that's really not a solution because we should have
been able to have our own children live in this
state and live in homes.

Speaker 17 (01:39:27):
You talk about the Blue cities where these things are
the worst, and it is so different.

Speaker 18 (01:39:31):
Critical because these policies that we have are really hurting
the constituencies of the Blue Democrats the most, because they
claim to care about poor people, working class people, but
they're embarking on policies that make it almost impossible to
build and for working class people to afford.

Speaker 17 (01:39:53):
A house to live.

Speaker 18 (01:39:54):
If are you telling working people that if you want
to afford a home, you have to go to Texas,
you have to go to Lord and those aren't Blue states.
So it's kind of social and economic suicide on the
part of the blue state to basically tell their constituency
that they claim to care so much about that, well,
you know, we love the working class, but you just

(01:40:16):
can't live in our neighborhood, you can't live in our city,
you can't even live in our state. I mean, that
to me is the height of hypocrisy.

Speaker 2 (01:40:23):
I just it is. It is frustrating. I mean, you know,
I'm blessed I live out here. You know, I've lived
all over the country, and I've been fortunate enough. I
grew up in southern California, and I saw the way
it changed. You know, like my mom, perfect example. My
mother lives in Cyprus, California. She's got a pretty nice home, Jame,
it's nothing spectacular. She couldn't afford to buy her home today.
There's just no way she could do it. And she

(01:40:45):
marvels at the fact that she pays like two grand
a month or twenty three and a month for her
mortgage that she got back in nineteen eighty six or
nineteen eighty nine, and the person next to him pays
like nine grand a month for their mortgage and they're
right next to each other. And it's because there hasn't
been any new homes built in that area in decades.

Speaker 18 (01:41:03):
Yeah, we have policy after policy, and I called my
book just one failed government policy after.

Speaker 17 (01:41:10):
Another that prevents new home building. I mean, whether it's
from voning, whether it's from environmental.

Speaker 18 (01:41:16):
Restrictions, whether it's even the fees that government's imposed in California.
If you want to build a hazing unit, depending on
where you live, you will pay between twenty thousand and
one hundred and fifty eight thousand in fees for a
single housing unit.

Speaker 17 (01:41:31):
I mean, of course.

Speaker 18 (01:41:32):
Costs, will it costs a lot of money, and you
don't allow things to build. Look, as I said in
the asset Supply and Demand, we're not meeting supply.

Speaker 17 (01:41:40):
And we're just really not quite waking up to the
magnitude of the problem.

Speaker 18 (01:41:46):
I've been litigating property right cases for forty years to
and I've been telling people for a long time. Look,
if we don't start to build the homes that we need,
we're going to have people living in the streets. And
people look at me like I was crazy. I said,
we're going to turn into a third world country. People
would say you're nuts, And now look at our streets.
I mean, I hate to say that I was right,

(01:42:06):
but I still know what the solution is. The solution
is still to build more homes where people want to live.
And we have to make builders of homes people that
we embrace and want to bring in our communities, instead
of treating developers as the big evils, the guard shopping
people that are just going to destroy the lives of people. No,

(01:42:26):
people building homes make our lives better, So why not
allow homes to be built.

Speaker 2 (01:42:31):
It's a great book, go check it out, and we
talk about all the time. The issues in this country,
from the homeless to the housing crisis and everything in
between the affordability. Love having you on James berling new
books called Nowhere to Live, the Hidden story of the
American Housing Crisis. Thanks so much for joining us. Mind
loser feels like it's a government issue when it comes
to the housing shortage. I think we recognize that. I

(01:42:54):
like what he said there. We're just exporting people from
places where they can't afford homes to places they can
afford homes. What's the new place? Osh, Gosh, Wisconsin, West
Virginia's dirt cheap. But if you've driven across this land,
there's plenty of places to build, and in a lot

(01:43:14):
of places you can, but in a lot of places
they won't let you. Three two, three, five, three eight,

We will wrap it.

Speaker 42 (01:44:28):
Up deep stinks, not deep doo doo eeah. The chad
fits and showy and idyllic.

Speaker 43 (01:44:44):
Mediterranean beach is the setting for the video for Katie
Perry's new single, Lifetime. She follics in the water in
a bikini, dances on the sand, but did she break
the law. The regional government for Spain's Bleric Islands is investigating,
saying they're looking into the video being filmed at Cecilina's
Natural Park Protected Area in a BISA. A preliminary investigation
has been opened. Authority say the production company failed to
apply for the proper permit.

Speaker 2 (01:45:06):
First of all, if you're not seeing the video, you should.
She's so damn odd, oh my god. And it's Ibetha.
I just want to point that out. But I tell
you go go look at the video. So I'm saying,
go look at the video just to see if there's like,
did they break the law? Did they do something horrible?
I mean, that's all I'm saying. She's in a biginnia.
It's a strength, biginnia. It's delicious. But look at the

(01:45:28):
nature because they're natural, just.

Speaker 26 (01:45:29):
A little bit unsteady, I think, especially with all the
crowds and things, and as much as sexual securities like
ramped up and things, it does make you a little
bit on edge.

Speaker 2 (01:45:38):
That right there. Some fans at the Taylor Swift concert
so far, so good, the Tea Swizzle concert tonight and
for the next few days in London after what took
place in Austria.

Speaker 27 (01:45:48):
So this concert's going to go on for the next
five days. Ninety thousand fans expected to be there every
single night. Now the tickets are reportedly even discounted eighty percent.
Ever since what happened in the we know that three
teams were arrested right for these terror plots, and police
and authorities really saying that they believe that they became

(01:46:08):
radicalized online.

Speaker 23 (01:46:10):
So that is also.

Speaker 27 (01:46:11):
Extremely interesting, even pledging their allegiance to terror groups like
ISIS and al Qaeda. Police in London saying, hey, we've
surveyed the area, there are no threats, and they say
that this is really the safest place to be is
at the Wimbley Stadium tonight.

Speaker 2 (01:46:24):
There you go. Safest place to be at the Wembley Stadium.
You know where it's not safety place to be the
White House when Commander and major around. But guess what,
we're going to have a new president, could be an
old president or could be a new president. They do
have something in common and I'll tell you about that.
As we learn about stupid information and then I go

(01:46:47):
and spoil it all.

Speaker 21 (01:46:48):
I say something stupid.

Speaker 2 (01:46:50):
Well takes stupid pills this morning.

Speaker 6 (01:46:52):
It's the honest ones you want to watch out for,
because you can never predict they're.

Speaker 2 (01:46:56):
Going to do something incredibly stupid. No, you're the fat,
stupid one with the big mouth is stupid than you
should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

Speaker 17 (01:47:10):
Now it's time for stupid information.

Speaker 2 (01:47:17):
Trump doesn't have a pet. Comin doesn't have a pet.
What Yeah, first time in a long time that the
president and the residents will not have a pet roaming around.
One of the first of the first president to have
a pet was a dog, John Adams. He was the

(01:47:39):
first to briefly live in the presidential residence known as
the White House. He had a dog. The dog's name Satan. Oh,
my Lord. Nobody knows why they called him Satan. My
assumption is is because he got into a lot of problems.
There's also been some many the usual animals that have

(01:48:01):
roamed the White House as pets, including tigers. How about this,
I love these things. Theodore Roosevelt, guinea pigs, Admiral Dewey,
Doctor Johnson, Bishop Dohan, and fighting Bob Evans and Father O'Grady.

(01:48:22):
I love the names. George Washington had dogs. Are you
ready for those? Drunkard Madame Moose and sweet lips?

Speaker 26 (01:48:31):
What?

Speaker 16 (01:48:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:48:33):
Some of the crazy things to go on at the
White House. And yes there were tigers, No way, yeah.

a parrot who swore. And now you know something you
