The Chad Benson Show.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Nobel Peace Prize. You know he wants one. Should he
get one, we'll discuss that coming up. But cautious optimism
peace in the Middle East.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
At the White House, the President celebrating, calling the deal
a momentous breakthrough.
Speaker 4 (00:31):
I think it's going to be a lasting piece, hopefully
and everlasting piece.
Speaker 5 (00:35):
Right now.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
What's been agreed to is phase one.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Hamas set to release the twenty living hostages early next
week and the remains of twenty eight others who perished.
In return, Israel releasing more than one thousand Palestinian prisoners
and pulling back its troops in Gaza to an agreed uponline.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Now, several people hit me up yesterday, go, I can't
believe they're giving back a thousand gee Hotti fighters. A
vast majority of the people that are in prison, they're
women and children, people that were arrested before October seventh.
So they're not handing back a thousand Giatti fighters. This
(01:17):
is Look, this has not been easy, we know, but
last night it went down to the wire because what
was taking place. After everything seemed to be in place,
then Babe had to go sell it to a group
(01:38):
of people in the Liquz party that didn't want it,
and there are a ton of hardliners. Let's start first
with Ben Gavere. You hear me talk about him. He's
the National Security Minister and arguably the leading far right
inside of his cabinet, and yeah, he wanted no part.
(01:59):
He in fact threatened to resign if the ceasefire deal passed.
Then you had Smodrich. Now he's the Finance Minister and
a member of the Religious Zionism block. He opposed the
ceasefire on principle, demanding that Israel finished the war and
the Hamaspi militarily destroyed. He threatened to quit as well
(02:20):
if the deal was adopted. And then you had the
Ottsma faction and they're far right coalition, a couple parties
with the Religious Zionists factions, and they were not thrilled.
So Bb had to go sell it, and his selling
(02:41):
it was, I don't think we got a choice, guys,
because Trump basically said if we don't, we're on our own.
And so yeah, hmmm, so we're doing this right and
they're like no, and they're like, well we are, and
they're like nu, huh, we're not. And then m hmm,
we are because he said so, and I don't think
(03:04):
he's playing. So it finally got passed, and let's go
through the deal quickly. First of all, we're gonna have
I think last night, two hundred of our soldiers. We're
already moved into Israel, ready to be deployed.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
There is cautious optimism about what is a very significant
step towards peace. And we have just learned that the
US is sending two hundred troops to Israel to monitor
this ceasefire from there, and that President Trump himself is
traveling to the region in the coming days.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
So it's begun. And on top of that, from what
I understand, Emordis, the Kataris, Egypt and maybe a few
others will also be sending some sort of peacekeeping group.
And everybody's like, oh, it's to monitor Mas. It's as
much to monitor Hamas as it is to also make
(04:02):
sure that the likes of Smodric and Goevie and them
don't get their way and try to press on. So
let's take a quick look at phase one. Phase one
one one. You like that should have put something together,
but I didn't, So just deal with it. Uh. Phase
one looks like this, and it's broken down pretty simple
(04:25):
here in the first phase, hostilities are done, right, So
the Israelis are going to pull back to a certain
line that's been drawn. And everybody said Trump drew it.
He's like there, all right. And when I do the
red line thing, I mean the red line thing. The
(04:46):
last guy before my first term, he drew a red
line and then everybody crossed it and he didn't do anything.
I'm not that guy. So there's a line there. So
it's it. And so that's already started. So the any
living hostages and the remains will be released. By Monday,
(05:08):
two thousand Palestinian prisoners will be released, of which a
thousand will start being released in the coming days. And
like I said, most of them are not Jihadis, and
they've already agreed to who is going to be released.
(05:29):
Hamas and Israel, they know the identities. A vast, vast
majority of them had nothing to do with October seventh.
Not saying that there won't be some released, but at
least now most of the people, if not all, had
no direct involvement, any involvement whatsoever, and many of them
(05:52):
prior to October seventh were already in custody, So that's
on that side. Then on the other side, of course,
you've got the people coming home to be laid to rest,
and the people who are still alive coming home to
see their families. It's a big deal. I said it
(06:14):
last night, I said it yesterday, and I'll say it again.
Give him the damn Nobel Peace Prize. Everybody's like, but
what about if it doesn't hold up. Look, do I
think this is going to hold up and we're going
to get through all twenty points? No, no chance. I
think the twenty points will probably whittle down to seven
or eight and go from there. But the fact that
(06:40):
this is even happening, and the speed of which it's
happening is huge. It is, and I know he wants
that peace prize.
Speaker 6 (06:49):
Speaking of that, the Rwegian Nobout Committee has decided to
award the Nobel Peace Prize for twenty twenty five to
Maria Machado. Oh, she's receiving the Nobel Peace Price for
her tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Yeah, don't worry, Maria. I know You're working hard to
move from the dictatorship to democracy. Trump's got your back
on that one too, because he's coming soon to take
Maduro out. Oh my lord. You know, even yesterday Trump
brought it up about again about the whole Nobel Peace Prize,
(07:36):
and woo, Obama got on. It's like, dude, you deserve one.
You do. I'm not saying you don't. If this all
holds steady, I'm not saying you don't. But you couldn't
get it in in time. Okay. It's like the Oscars.
You have to have your movie in theaters by a
(07:57):
certain date, so it counts towards the Oscars that they're
coming up. This took place during the announcements over the
last several days of Nobel Peace Price. So this lady though, like,
she don't take no crap, no she know.
Speaker 6 (08:17):
In the past year, Miss Mattado has been forced to
live in hiding, despite serious threats against her life, she
has remained in the country, a choice that has inspired millions.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Then again, Trump's coming because he wants that Peace prize
and he's willing to help you. Obama got anurprised. He
didn't even know what he got it.
Speaker 7 (08:41):
He got elected and they gave it to Obama for
doing absolutely nothing. But destroying our country. No, he was
not a good president. The worst president was sleepy Joe Biden.
But Obama was not a good president.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Just the bizarre obsession was he wants it. Now. Here's
the one thing I will say, if you were to
give it to him, the party that he would have.
We were joking yesterday, It's like, do you think he
asked for a belt. I don't want a prize like that.
Don't get me that. I want a belt, like a
(09:19):
wrestler's belt, like a world champion boxer belt. He's making
t shirts for everybody. There's gonna be confetti, and you
got to invite him to the place. You gotta tell him, Look, dude,
you're gonna be getting this, mister president, and you got
to invite him to the place because he's gonna turn it.
(09:41):
He's gonna put it on blast. Oh my goodness. Me
speaking of following the Constitution and winning Nobel Peace prizes,
Trump trying to fight against people who don't want peace.
Speaker 8 (09:55):
With members of the Texas National Guard already stationed at
this ice facility outside should Cargo. A federal judge granting
a partial temporary restraining order on federal troop deployments in Illinois,
Justice Department lawyers argue that troops are there to protect
federal agents who are being targeted by agitators, claiming there
(10:16):
is a danger of rebellion. But the lawyer for the
state argued, there is no rebellion in Illinois.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
No. No. There might be some crime in certain areas,
but insurrection, no, no. And the governor of Oklahoma came
out and said, yeah, this isn't It was a Republican
said no, this is wrong. Could you imagine if Pritzker
sent troops to Texas, how Governor Abbott would react to that?
(10:48):
If Biden was president. Could you have imagined that this
isn't This isn't right. So what you've got now is
a pause there and then kind of the same thing
in Portland. So we're gonna be taking a look at
over this next couple of days. There's no doubt. Will
there begin uprising, Will he declare an insurrection? I think
(11:10):
that's a stretch. We'll see three, two, three, five, three, eight,

sounds Chad Benson.
Speaker 9 (12:59):
Joe, you're listening to the Chad Benson Show.
Speaker 10 (13:15):
It is that time of the program where we take
a listen back to the craziness, the chaos, the weird
and the amazing that took place this week.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Thank god, it's finally Friday.
Speaker 11 (13:28):
I'm just here keeping my eye on SNL making sure

Have four months to learn.
Speaker 13 (13:45):
I'm not one hundred dollars walking in my hole.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
I know how, I'll say that body's burning a hold.
Speaker 13 (13:53):
I do my pocketing and do my skin. I'm on
the morning, I'll be brown. It's fine.
Speaker 14 (14:07):
It's the air pollution and other problems, and the state
could lose.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Out of my shot well to those voters.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Okay, so so you I don't want to keep doing this,
I'm gonna call it.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Thank you. You're not gonna do the interview with them? No,

ups to every single question you ask.
Speaker 13 (14:31):

Speaker 13 (15:17):
Fday, I'm free running again.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Time Trump forget.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
Remember October seventh was terrible, but also from the Hammas standpoint,
they probably lost seventy thousand.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Three two three, five three eight twenty four to twenty
three at Chad Benson Show. Is your ex your instant
and everything else right here on the Chad Benson Show.
Speaker 18 (15:50):
Thank you President Trump for your courage, Thank you for
the coming admistration, for doing everything you can to bring
them home.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
This is a tsunami of Donald Trump's creation. I think,
hope and pray that it ends in about a week.
Speaker 17 (16:02):
And I'm very.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Disappointed in me because you do have the power to
call the House back. You refuse to do that just
for a show.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
What a crazy week. Speaking of crazy, you know what
time it is now, It's time for ninety second sub
government shutdown talk.
Speaker 19 (16:20):
Appearing on c SPAN, House Speaker Mike Johnson faced a
tearful caller from Virginia who said her family needs her
husband's military pay.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
You could stop this and you could be the one
that could say military is getting paid.
Speaker 19 (16:32):
In response, Johnson said the troops would be paid if
Senate Democrats would stop blocking the House passed funding stopgap.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
We had a vote to pay the troops.
Speaker 19 (16:40):
Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer told punch Bowl News as
his party pushes for greater healthcare spending, quote, every day
gets better for us. Republicans have blasted him for the remark.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
They should. We should blast all of them. They're not
doing their job. They are not in session. Mike Johnson
and the military. They the military, by the way, they
use situations like this because they know that Americans get
pissed about the fact that the military is not getting
(17:10):
paid all the while they're getting paid. And let's be honest,
they could all probably go a few missed paychecks and
still be all right, this is awful, and both sides
are to blame. Act like adults, get in the room
(17:31):
and do your damn job.
Speaker 20 (17:36):
Who's not frustrated, right, It's the Chad Benson Show, The
Chad Benson Show, the Chat Benson Show.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
It's that portion of the program where we play the
Wheel of Surprise. We spin the wheel, all right, so
you spin the wheel and where it lands that number,
we hit the button and play the audio. These are
stories that we didn't get to during the week because
we just didn't have time, all right, And maybe we
touched on them really briefly, but because of all the
(18:25):
stuff going on, we just didn't get deep into it.
Speaker 16 (18:27):
So let's have some fun.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Let's do the Wheel of Surprise.
Speaker 17 (18:31):
Hit it.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Number six.
Speaker 21 (18:47):
Letitia James was indicted on one count of bank fraud.
They're basically accusing her of attempting to purchase property suggesting
that it was going to be a residential property used
by her or when in fact they claimed she was
going to use it for rental property to make profit.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
So this came down last night, but it had been
bruined for the last couple of days, and we just
didn't obviously we didn't pay much attention. You kind of
knew it was coming, just after the whole Komi thing,
and he was in court this week. Letitia James, she
went after Trump. She said she was going to go
after Trump. She said she was going to go after
Trump while she was campaigning and then when she was elected.
So this is not a shock, it isn't. She of
(19:28):
course denies anything, says it's personal.
Speaker 22 (19:32):
This is nothing more than a continuation of the president's
desperate weaponization of our justice system. He's forcing federal law
enforcement agencies to do his bidding, all because I did
my job as a New York State attorney general. These
charges are baseless, and the president's own public statements make
(19:55):
clear that his only goal is political retribution at an cost.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
So, yeah, Yeah, but did you go after him before
you even knew what charges would be because you've never
seen the evidence.
Speaker 16 (20:10):
You brag.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
A lot of people campaigned on I'm going to get Trump,
and so when all of a sudden the pendulum swings
the other way, you're like, I'm a victim.
Speaker 23 (20:25):
According to PolitiFact, the day after she was elected in
twenty eighteen, Leticia James was asked by a community activist
if she was going to sue President Trump, and she replied, quote, Oh,
We're going to definitely sue him. We're going to be
a real pain in the ass. He's going to know
my name personally. I mean, that's not a great look
for somebody who has just been elected or just been campaigning,
(20:45):
who hasn't even looked I guess, at deeply at any
evidence exactly.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Do I think that it is a vendetta? Yes? Do
I think they had a vendetta against him? Absolutely? So
where does that lead us? It leaves us with our
system being clogged up and we don't need it, We don't.
But turn about is fair play. And the reality is
you decided to go after him. You made it a
(21:15):
personal thing, so you can't be shocked if when he
has the opportunity that he doesn't go after you. I
don't like it, but it is what it is. It's
the wheel of surprise number two.
Speaker 24 (21:43):
The execution of Robert Robertson, originally set for a week
from today, is now off the table. The Texas Court
of Criminal Appeals has issued the order earlier today, this
newest order.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
So this is interesting. So he was convicted of killing
his daughter and it was shaken baby syndrome. Since shaken
baby syndrome was a big deal back then. Oh, look
at all the stuff and we've got all these things
been all flash forward a number of years. Guess what
(22:16):
shaken baby syndrome, M data, new studies and other cases
been overturned.
Speaker 25 (22:27):
We have been following the Robertson case for the past
year as an army of people ranging from attorneys, medical experts,
and lawmakers fight on his behalf. Today the judges ordered
Robertson's execution. He halted. The panel issued is ruling based
on an unrelated Dallas case involving evidence involving a shaken baby.
In that case, a guilty verdict was tossed after new
(22:49):
science was presented, calling the findings into question. Robertson is
on death row following his conviction for killing his toddler daughter.
Investigators say she died as a result of shaking baby syndrome.
Because lawyers argue the science behind checking baby syndrome has
since been discredited by medical professionals, they say she died
from complications related to numerous medical conditions, details they say
(23:11):
jurors never heard.
Speaker 16 (23:13):
For me.
Speaker 26 (23:15):
Robert is actually innocent. It's not a probable, a possible.
He is actually innocent. And I still hope to be
able to prove that, which shouldn't even be our burden.
But I would like to prove that and get him
home one day.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
That is his attorney, Gretchen Sween, talking about. Because this
isn't about right now. The stay has nothing to do
with his innocence. The stay is, Hey, you know what,
maybe we need to take a second look at this.
I don't believe in the death penalty as far as
a deterrent. I just it doesn't work. I don't believe
(23:53):
it as a deterrent, you know. And the how many
of them die from dementia or old age or whatever
it is they lived in there forever, and it's not
a deterrent. But if you are going to kill somebody,
if the state is going to say we are going
to do this, then make sure it's right.
Speaker 16 (24:15):
And if the.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Data, the science changes between the conviction and when you're
going to carry out the execution, you better take a
step back and go all right, let's take a look
at this again.
Speaker 26 (24:34):
We had doctor, scientists, lawyers who think that the legal
system should recognize changes in scientific understanding. We had bipartisan
group of lawmakers fighting relentlessly.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
We'll see again. Not everybody is thrilled by this. Not
everybody thinks this is the right thing, and I understand that.
But that being said, in a situation like this, if
the science has changed and there's new science, new evidence,
(25:10):
new data that may support innocence, you got to take
a look.
Speaker 25 (25:14):
As for what happens now, the case goes back to
Anderson County. Whether the trial court will review the case
to decide if there's enough question for.
Speaker 16 (25:22):
A new trial.
Speaker 25 (25:23):
That decision would be made by the Texas Court of
Criminal Appeals. And it's also worth noting that in previous interviews,
Nicky's older half brother Matthew, told us he's convinced Robertson
is guilty. He added, the family simply wants justice.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
Who wouldn't want justice? If that's your kid, your sister,
your brother, your family member, you would absolutely one percent
want justice. But if you've got all of the technology,
the data, the science to double quadruple, make sure, yeah,
(26:00):
you better go with that absolutely three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson Show,
is your ex your Insta, your YouTube and more? That
was the wheel of surprise. We're gonna get to our
scary movie countdown. And if you're just joining the world,
then maybe you are. It started already in the Middle East.
(26:25):
They are pulling out. Israel is pulling out. There's going
to be an exchange of prisoners. We'll get more into
that a little bit later next hour. It is amazing.
(26:45):
It's a little nerve racking for the hostage families as
well as the people in Gaza. Not really sure or
you know, when it's food gonna flow, what's gonna happen me?
And this is this is a big, massive deal, so
(27:08):
you know, excitement absolutely nerves you know, but this is
the first step. And I keep telling people that this
will be the first step of what will hopefully be
many steps we shall see coming up though you know
our scary movie countdown, get ready for it.
Speaker 26 (27:22):
It is.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
It's a great one today it is I don't mess
about kids, I don't mess about And this one has
a bit of reality which inspired this character in this movie.
But first I want to talk to you about my
friends at Chapter. And you're thinking, okay, what's Chapter game.
Understand that Medicare plans Okay, you know they're like fashion,
(27:48):
You like yours, it's in right now, and you're like, yeah,
I want to keep No, No, I can't, I can't
have it. We're moving on frustration for a lot of
people out there. Some people love their plan, they want
to keep it and they can't. And that's where Chapter
comes in. All right, So you can't count on most
Medicare agents. Why because they're there to earn the highest commissions.
One of the big things that you know happens is
(28:10):
they're steering you to the products that they're pushing. So
Chapter doesn't do that. They don't work with the government,
and they don't work with big insurance companies.
Speaker 16 (28:17):
They work for you.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Chapter compares every Medicare plan nationwides. They're going to find
the best fit for you. Here's a great thing. On
average seniors, they save eleven hundred dollars a year by
working with Chapter. And it's absolutely free. And here's the
other thing. Within twenty minutes you will have all your options.
Here's the other great thing. No gimmicks, no pressure, it's
honest advice, and it's simple to find out what works
for you. Pound two point fifty on your phone. Say
(28:42):
the keyword Medicare plan. That's it. That's how simple that is.
Medicare is too important. Don't risk it. What are you
waiting for? Work with my friends over it. Chapter. I
trust them, my family trust them. So should you dial
pound two fifty and say the keyword Medicare plan. Coming up?
Scary movie Countdown continue Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (29:17):
All right, it is that time of the show where
we continue our countdown as we march to number one
of the greatest horror movies of all time. It's not
just about scares, which is very important. There's laughter sometimes,
but it's also about the cultural impact of the horror movies.
(29:39):
And boy, do we have one that's a doozy.
Speaker 27 (29:45):
The time has come, so prepare yourself for a journey

We just see what's happening. What did out of the town.
Speaker 9 (31:29):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
A car and I got to say it's.
Speaker 11 (31:33):
In the John Pukins since he saw it, We're gonna
kill me for sure.
Speaker 6 (31:36):
Did you do it.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
There was somebody else there.
Speaker 13 (31:39):
He was locked in a room with a girl who
went in alive and came out in a rubber bag.
Speaker 28 (31:44):
No one knows where it came from or who it will.
Speaker 29 (31:47):
Visit the next nine There's something wrong. Do your imagine
Nightmare on Elm Street.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Do you believe in the Pokey Man?
Speaker 12 (31:57):
No?
Speaker 2 (31:58):
Whatever you do?
Speaker 28 (32:01):
Oh Wes Craven, director of the Heels Have Eyes and
Last House on the Left of a New Master of
Past in Fantasy Terror of Nightmare on Elm Street.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
I remember seeing that in the movie. Went on a
Nate little double name with my friend Rusty and his
girl and this girl I was seeing it was also
a ginger as we were thirteen. It was not like
we're seeing each other, you know, we'reb We held hands
because Freddy scared her. I don't know, but what I
did know is the movie was incredible because he came
to you in your dreams. He spoke. There was humor
(32:40):
and creepy jump scares and the usual stuff. It was
just a much different thing that we were used to seeing.
When it comes to that time, you had Michael and Jason,
but leather face, but nothing like Freddy and speaking of Freddie.
The fact that he comes to you in your dreams
is also interesting. Wes Craven, who was the writer and
(33:01):
director of the movie, actually took inspiration from several stories
he saw in the La Times about young men Southeast
Asian men who had escaped Laois and Cambodia who had
died in their sleep. But there was one article that
was big that really gave him the inspiration and how
(33:22):
it happened was crazy, and Wes talked about how this
kid died in his sleep.
Speaker 30 (33:30):
He and his family had come out of the relocation
camps in Southeast Asia, I think Cambodia something like that.
They were now in the United States, living in some
place in California, and he had been troubled by severe nightmares.
They had increased in intensity to the point where he
had told his family they don't feel ordinary. They had
a doctor prescribed sleepy medicine for him, and his father
(33:50):
consisted he'd take it. It turned out later that he
had spit them out, and they also discovered later that
he had a copy pot in his closet that he
had kept with black coffee stay awake at night. So
this had gone on. He had decided a certain point
to stay awake and not sleep, and after about three
days he would be downstairs watching television all through the night.
They went down and found him asleep on the couch,
(34:12):
and the father brought him back to his bed and
they all went to bed, and later in the night
they heard screaming and thrashing about. They ran into his
room and before they get to him, he fell dead,
and the family had to have an autopsy done and
there was no heart failure. There's no sign of why.
Speaker 28 (34:27):
He had died.
Speaker 2 (34:28):
Crazy Freddy was amazing his sweater colors. Craven shows red
and green because they're the two colors most difficult for
the human eye to see side by side. Budget one
point eight million dollars turned into fifty seven million dollars
worldwide and launched Newline Cinema into the stratosphere. And that's
where when you used to go to New Line Cinema
(34:48):
for many years, the only thing you'd see around their
poster wise was Freddy Krueger. They coined the phrase the
House that Freddy built. Oh by the way, it also
gave Johnny Depp his wes. Craven's daughter thought he was dreamy.
Freddie is a pop icon in the impact he had
not only in horror movies, but movies in general as
(35:10):
well as the culture. Can't be Tony the number sixteen
movie in the Horror Movie Countdown Nightmare on Elm Street
three two, three, five, three, eight, twenty four, twenty three.
At Chad Benson Show, is your ex your insta, YouTube, Facebook,
and more. If you've got a movie you said, Hey, Chad,
you should check this out.
Speaker 16 (35:30):
Let us know.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
We're still taking some submissions. I'm going to watch some
movies this weekend that a few people have sent us
and we do love hearing from you right here in
the Chad Benson Show. Coming up, our number two of
the program, Moron Israel Hamas the Seasfire, Trump and his want,
hope and desires to get that Nobel Peace Prize, and
(35:52):
a bunch of other good stuff coming up as well,
including our buddy Zach Abraham, Chief Ustban Officer Bowell Capitol.
He's going to join the program. We're going to talk
about AI is aim so big in the investment world
right now that if that bubble burst, we could be
in a lot of trouble. We're gonna talk to him
about that. Plus we get you ninety seconds of government
shutdown talk, including a phone call yesterday that Mike Johnson
(36:15):
took on a show that well, a lot of people
are talking about that a much about the good stuff
on the way. Our number two straight Ahead Chad Benson Show.
Speaker 1 (36:24):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
The movement has begun in Gaza and Israel. Phase one
is underway. Optimism, hope, will it work?
Speaker 3 (37:11):
N maybe At the White House, the President celebrating calling
the deal a momentous breakthrough.
Speaker 4 (37:17):
I think it's going to be a lasting piece, hopefully
at everlasting piece.
Speaker 3 (37:21):
Right now, what's been agreed to is phase one. Hamas
set to release the twenty living hostages early next week
and the remains of twenty eight others who perished. In return,
Israel releasing more than one thousand Palestinian prisoners and pulling
back its troops in Gaza to an agreed uponline.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
So when I said maybe it's not that I'm not
cautiously optimistic, I am, and I continue to say, if
things continue to move in this, you know direction, as
far as the piece goes, give them a damn prize,
Nobel Peace Prize. But do I think all twenty phases
are going to happen. No, do I think there is
going to be ebbs and flow. Absolutely, You're dealing with
(38:02):
people that have deep rooted disdain for one another. You're
dealing with people who do not trust each other, and
you're dealing with people that are now giving up control
(38:25):
to outside forces like the United States and several other
key players throughout the region to come in and to
monitor and do things that they're not used to. So, yeah,
there's gonna be three steps forward, eight steps back, twelve
(38:47):
steps forward, two steps back. There's gonna be those days
there is. But this is progress. It ain't easy, It
isn't and this is going to be at times frustrating.
This is going to be at times. You know, they
(39:09):
said they were going to do this, They didn't do that.
They broke this. They broke that if we stay the
course do and Trump is strong, and I think he
is because that's how the steal got done. Remember he
went to be Bean, It's like, we're doing this. He's like,
I don't know if my people are going to like it.
I get I didn't tell you go ask them if
you would like this. We're doing this. Speaking of doing it.
(39:30):
We're going to be there, and by we're I mean troops.
Speaker 3 (39:34):
There is cautious optimism about what is a very significant
step towards peace. And we have just learned that the
US is sending two hundred troops to Israel to monitor
this cease fire from there, and that President Trump himself
is traveling to the region in the coming days.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
Again, we're going to be on the ground. I think
the amadis, the kataris, the ataris. No, not the band,
They're not going to be there. That would be entertaining,
though the I think maybe Jordan and Egypt also may
have some soldiers. And then you're gonna have diplomats people
that are going to come there who are going to
(40:12):
start to help to plan out the rebuild and how
this goes. So let's go over the phases that are
potentially at risk and the ones that are most likely
to succeed. So the hostage prisoner exchange, that's that's happening,
all right, So that's going on within the next three days.
(40:33):
That should for the most part be done. So that
is that's the good thing, the at least the pause
in fighting especially and here's the thing. Having two hundred
American soldiers and diplomats and whatnot or whatever we're going
(40:55):
to have over there peacekeeping folk. Having them over there
is going to make both sides nervous. And also take
a deep breath and relax. It'll make them nervous because
who are these people? Why are they here? You know
this is between us? Well, no, it wasn't. In the
minute we had to fund everything, it stopped being between us. Secondly,
(41:18):
Israel is going to be less likely to fire upon
Gaza if we have men and women over there, diplomats
or whatever. Secondly, they'll be able to run cover and
go after Hamas should they start to rise again, and
(41:42):
use that as intelligence. So I think you're going to
find frustration at times. You're going to find because you're
giving up control. I mean, that's just it. I mean
Trump is taking the lead on this, like it, don't
like it, whatever you want to say. He's taking the
lead in way where because he wants to, because he
wants the award. Yes, No, because it's the right thing
(42:04):
to do as well, because he realizes we can't do this,
he said yesterday, it's got to stop. Seventy thousand people
have died over there, they have paid that price. What
happened on October seventh was awful, but they have paid
the price now. So having and not just by by
the way, take away any soldiers we have or diplomats
(42:26):
on the ground or peacekeepers or whatever. You're still going
to have other players throughout the region that are going
to be there on the ground, and so less likely.
I said, hey, put up a hotel. First thing you do.
Put up a Trump hotel right in the middle of Palestine.
Speaker 16 (42:46):
There.
Speaker 2 (42:46):
You know what's gonna happen. Israel is going to find
it hard press to blow that thing up, so it's
it's going to be interesting, there's no doubt. So I
think there's some stuff that's gonna I think that out
of the twenty point plan there will be several things
that aren't really going to be needed. And like anything,
you know, plans like this, baby, you draw it and
(43:08):
pants will not pen because you might have to erase
and change three two, three, five, three, eight, twenty four
to twenty three. At Chad Benson shows your ex, your
insta YouTube and more.
Speaker 16 (43:20):
Baby.
Speaker 2 (43:21):
We go from there to I don't really want to
talk about Letitia James, but I guess we have to
at least mention it. So, of course, former ag of
New York and uh not a fan of Trump, as
you guys know. Well, guess what they've got her. The
Trump revenge tour continues. I don't feel bad about Letitia
(43:45):
James because she made her entire campaign up about getting
Donald Trump. It's like, we've got the conviction, we just
need to find in the crime kind of thing. So
I don't feel bad in that case. That being said,
I felt that what she did was awful, and so
I feel like this is awful going after. But that's
apparently what modern politics is now. It's become lawfare.
Speaker 22 (44:08):
This is nothing more than a continuation of the president's
desperate weaponization of our justice system. He's forcing federal law
enforcement agencies to do his bidding, all be costs. I
did my job as a New York State attorney general.
He's charges are baseless, and the president's own public statements
make clear that his only goal is political retribution at
(44:30):
any cost.
Speaker 2 (44:31):
Yeah, but you said that, not retribution. But you said
your goal prior to being elected, and when you were elected.
The day after you were elected, you said that you
were going to be a pain in Trump's ass and
you were coming after him, and he's going to know
your name, and you hadn't even decided what you were
going to charge him with or seen anything. So it's
(44:54):
nobody feels bad, even though, like I've said this and
I'll can tease it. I don't like it. I don't
want law fair. I don't think it's good for our country.
I don't think it's healthy. But I don't feel bad
for you. I don't you did the same thing to him.
What did you expect? What's going to happen? So she
is being charged with mortgage fraud.
Speaker 21 (45:16):
Leticia James was indicted on one count of bank fraud.
They're basically accusing her of attempting to purchase property, suggesting
that it was going to be a residential property used
by her, when in fact they claimed she was going
to use it for rental property to make profit.
Speaker 2 (45:34):
Okay, mortgage bank fraud. I don't know what exactly is
the merits of the case. Is it real?
Speaker 16 (45:44):
Is it not real?
Speaker 2 (45:46):
Could she be going to jail for I don't I
have you know that's going to be decided by potentially
a jury of her peers. And so this is where
we are at this point in time. You can't expect
the tit for tat world is happening in politics worse
than before because now the lawfair has become involved. It
(46:08):
wasn't just about going after you in you know, when
it came to elections, when it came to primarying people,
when it can comes to you know, getting the best
meme out there, whatever it's Now we're at the point
where it is is lawfair and it's wrong. But when
you do it to somebody else, I think we can
all expect that maybe it might come back on you all.
(46:32):
I'm saying three two, three, three, eight, twenty four to
twal three at Chad menton show, is your ax, your Insta, YouTube, Facebook,
and more? Now we got so much stuff still to
get to today. Our buddy Zach Abraham is going to
join the show a little bit. I'm pomped. I want
to talk to about AI. Man. Let me tell you
about AI. I said the other night to my wife,
(46:53):
I said, I'm gonna start a cult. She's like why
I said, And I told you guys this yesterday about
like the whole thing with the National Guard and the
way that they had used the general of the organ
National Guard and used his voice to say something he
never said, and people were cheering it on. But I
said take away that there's people that are using Sora,
(47:17):
which is amazing to create, Like, hey, what's going on?
Check this out? These are many dolphins and they're like,
you know, six inches long. They're not real, and I'm
selling these. They're easy to take care of. You put
them in an aquarium. And I'm looking at the comments
because you got to go to the comments because that's
really where America comes alive. And in the comments, people
are like, I take two, Where do you get him?
(47:39):
Where do I VENMO money? And then he's also got
one where he has many giraffes. They're like maybe twenty
four inches tall, and people are where do I get one?
Where do I get one? I'm thinking, are you that stupid?
And then I just told my wife it is time
we start a cult. By the way, if you create
(48:01):
a fake thing like that with many dolphins and all
of that stuff and somebody sends you one hundred dollars
and you quote unquote steal their money, I think that's
a lesson that just costs you one hundred bucks. That's
it for being so stupid as not to go you
know what, maybe I should see if many dolphins really
(48:22):
do exist at chat. BET's the show X, it's the
YouTube and more. Prize picks, Baby, prize picks. That's what
I want you to do. We got basketball here now mmmmmm,
hockey m hm, soccer, beer'sma and of course.
Speaker 16 (48:41):
Football.
Speaker 2 (48:42):
Now it's your chance to win big with prize picks.
Let me tell you how you win with prize picks.
You're picking two or more players up to six more
or less based on the projected stats. And you know sports,
and you can go cross sports. You get at baseball
and football, you could go so hockey and basketball, whatever
you want to do. That's how it works. So whether
(49:04):
you think that Steph Curry is going to make more
than three and a half three pointers or Jalen Hurts
is going to rush for more than sixty two yards
more or less, is how you do it. Now here's
a great thing. You download the app, use my code Chad.

(49:25):
waiting for? Prize Picks. Opportunities abound sports. Maybe you know it,
Why not take advantage of it? Go to Prize Picks,
download the app today, use my co Chad to get
fifty dollars instantly in lineups when you play your first

Chad Benson.
Speaker 1 (49:39):
Joe, you're listening to the Chad Benson Show.
Speaker 2 (49:54):
The National God are guarding you. Should they be well?
One judge says nat in.
Speaker 5 (50:02):
Her ruling the federal judge in Illinois, saying there is
no credible evidence that there is danger of a rebellion
in Illinois and no evidence that the President is unable
with regular law enforcement to execute the laws of the
United States. She says Illinois meets a threshold for a
temporary restraining order against the President, and the deployment of
the National Guard to Illinois would likely lead to civil
(50:24):
unrest that would then require a response from local and
state law enforcement. She said, sending National Guard would only
add fuel to the fire.
Speaker 2 (50:33):
We don't want to add fuel to a fire. So
what happens to the Guard?
Speaker 27 (50:38):
Now?
Speaker 14 (50:39):
One thing that was not made clear, and it wasn't
clarified by Kwame Rawell either was what does this mean
for the National Guard troops that are already on the
ground in Illinois.
Speaker 1 (50:52):
Do they have to leave?
Speaker 14 (50:53):
Are they able to stay but not be deployed? These
are all questions that have not been answered. And again,
because this tas only lasts for fourteen days, we could
be back here all over again two weeks from now.
Speaker 2 (51:07):
Okay, so we've got that cover. We're gonna get a
little deeper into this. So we go from there. So
that's Illinois scaggle to Portland, where they're keeping it weird.
Speaker 8 (51:17):
Always another hearing about the National Guard in Portland, a
Trump appointed judge seemingly sympathetic to the government.
Speaker 26 (51:24):
Here a facility was actually closed for almost a month,
and the record includes more than one at least two
attempts to burn the building down.
Speaker 8 (51:32):
With the growing showdown over sending the National Guard into
American cities, one key Republican governor says he does not
support Texas decision to send Guard troops to Illinois. Governor
Kevin Stitch of Oklahoma telling the New York Times Oklahomas
would lose their mind if Pritzker and Illinois send troops
down to Oklahoma.
Speaker 2 (51:49):
During the Biden administration. I agree one hundred percent. They're
not crime fighters. So do I understand in the Portland case,
and I've said this because of the ice facilities. So
keeping them there on the facility is one thing. Sending
them in the streets, so remember the facilities are federal,
(52:12):
but sending them in the streets is something completely different.
And in Chicago, you're not there to fight crime. That
is not in their purview. That's not their jam, right,
that's a different world. Three two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Shows, your
ex your insta, YouTube, and more. Right here in the
Chad Benson Show, we have a constitution. It's there for
(52:34):
a reason and we need to follow it. And I'm
glad that you know the Oklahoma governor said, yeah, this
isn't right. No, it's not it is not right. It's ridiculous.
And it's a lot of show because that's politics in
today's world. It's a lot of show, and it's frustrating.
Let us know what you think. Several of you have
(52:56):
texted the show over the last well really several days
since we've been talking about this because some of you
it's funny. There's a lot of you know, small government
people out there, but when you think it's right to
toss away the constitution, I just find it bizarre that
you would do that. And it is frustrating because, as
(53:20):
the governor of Oklahoma said, imagine if Biden did that
to a Republican state. Now here's a twist in the tail,
if you will. Memphis, which is in Tennessee, red state,
blue city, Governor Lee said, bring him. So that's different
because it's a blue city, so they'll go it's a
(53:42):
blue city, and Memphis does have problems, So that's a
little different thing because it is a Republican requesting it.
Just like Michelle Luhan. Cities in New Mexico requested National
Guard help because of violence that was escalating and drug
(54:04):
wars that were basically happening. So this is gonna be
very interesting to see the way this plays out in
both Portland and Illinois. But know this, so much of
this is all about the show. Baby, It's all about
the show. Coming up, Zach Abram, Chief Vestment Officer Bowel Capital,
We're going to talk the economy. Chad Benson Chick, the
Chad Benson.
Speaker 1 (54:24):
Show, The Chad Benson Show.
Speaker 2 (54:46):
Let's get serious that time of the week. We get
serious as much as we can with our good buddy,
Zach Abrahm, Chiefvesament Officer, Bullwork Capital. All right, Zach, I
want to get serious. Everybody's worried about the economy. Everybody
is worried that we're headed for some sort of recession.
Make heads or tails of it. Do something that makes
(55:08):
people go Okay. I can see that because right now
I don't know. I don't know what to make of
this economy.
Speaker 31 (55:14):
Now what I would expect to see here, and let's
keep an eye out. Let's keep an eye out. In
the last quarter of this year. I would actually expect,
assuming this market rally holds, I would actually expect to
see economic activity pick up in the last quarter of
the year. People go, whizact, you think the economy is good.
I go, No, the SMP's up fifteen percent.
Speaker 2 (55:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 31 (55:34):
The biggest purchasing group and the people with the most
money in the country are baby boomers, and they are
living off of their four oh one KS and ETF portfolios.
Speaker 16 (55:46):
Right.
Speaker 31 (55:46):
So, like I've said before, if Graham and Grampa have
a two million dollar portfolio and they're up fifteen percent.
Speaker 2 (55:54):
That's three hundred grand.
Speaker 31 (55:55):
Okay, if Graham and gramp spent spent one hundred grand
and the portfolio Leo's still up two hundred is their
propensity to spend this holiday on Gi Joe's and Barbie
Dolls for the kids? Is it bigger or lower? Of
course it's bigger, right, So I think that this. I
think that everything can keep rolling as long as the
(56:17):
stock market keeps going up. The problem with that is
the stock market is not going up for economic reasons.
It's going up for money supply reasons, and it's going
up for just fear and greed, right, bubble bubble type
mentality stuff.
Speaker 2 (56:31):
So everybody's like, how do you know it's a bubble?
Got Well, let me just tell you guys. You got it.
Speaker 31 (56:36):
You got the Fed funds rate at three and a
quarter and you've got the smp T rating at thirty
two times earnings.
Speaker 2 (56:40):
Okay.
Speaker 31 (56:41):
I know most of the people listening to this don't
know how to run a discount of cash flow model,
but just take my word for it.
Speaker 2 (56:46):
Those numbers don't work. They don't make any sense. They
just don't.
Speaker 31 (56:50):
THENU factor in stock based comp you got to market realistically,
if we comp it to historical norms, you're right up
in that probably forty to forty two times earning, So
you're right there.
Speaker 2 (56:59):
At that tech bubble dot com level. What's the difference.
Speaker 31 (57:03):
The difference is is the lot of the most bloated
companies are at the top of the index. So when
they tip over, the index doesn't have a bad run.
The index gets smoked. You're looking at the NASDAK right here.
If the Nasdaq loss seventy percent of its value, it
would still be trading at historically elevated levels. A seventy
percent loss would not create a generational buying opportunity in
(57:26):
the Nasdaq. It would take it down to a still
elevated above historical levels.
Speaker 2 (57:32):
The best proof of.
Speaker 31 (57:32):
That if people get see, Zach, what are you talking about?
Look at the second largest company in the S and
P five hundred and the net well third largest.
Speaker 2 (57:39):
I believe Microsoft is a little bigger.
Speaker 31 (57:41):
But Apple, and we've talked about this before, right, but
Apple's long term pe ratio going back to like two
thousand and five to twenty twenty, it oscillated back and
forth between seventeen times earnings on the low end to
twenty two times earnings. On the high end, they were
growing revenues, but that time, I'm somewhere between fifteen to
(58:01):
thirty percent a year, you had fat margins. Fast forward
to today, it's double that valuation, trading at forty times earnings,
growing at six percent a year with margins that have
slid all the way down to fifteen percent. Okay, So
even by Apple zone metrics, if Apple lost fifty percent
of its value right now, it would have the worst
(58:22):
growth numbers of the last twenty years and would be
at the high end of the valuation range of the
last twenty years if it lost fifty percent, right So,
I remember guys talking about a crash four or five
years ago, and I was sitting there looking at the
indexes and I was like, look, this market could go
down twenty or thirty percent. But bottom line is the
NASDAK a little frothy, sure, but it can't lose seventy percent.
(58:46):
There's too much value there, right you look at today,
it absolutely and I'm not saying it will.
Speaker 2 (58:52):
I'm not even saying I think it will.
Speaker 31 (58:54):
But when you're looking at a market that could shave
off sixty or seventy percent and still be on the
high side.
Speaker 2 (58:59):
Is Orcley have overvalued? That's pretty nuts, and that's where
we are. That's where we are talking to Zach Abrahm,
chieves an officer Buller Capital. What are you expecting for
the fourth quarter? I don't know what to expect. Like
you said, man, this is the weirdest you know. It
could be we could see a massive jump in growth
in spending in the fourth quarter, or we could or
(59:20):
I wouldn't be surprised if we were down a little bit.
I don't know. Yeah, there's so many things that are
clouding this.
Speaker 31 (59:27):
Historically, meaning consumers behave completely different than they did even
fifteen twenty five years ago. The consumer has repeatedly shown
their willingness to lever up and do incredibly financially irresponsible
and dangerous things to keep up with the.
Speaker 2 (59:41):
Joneses, more so than they ever have in the past.
Speaker 31 (59:44):
You look at the number of gen Zers and millennials
dipping into their four oh one k's to buy new
clothes and to afford ret and do all this kind
of stuff. That's just one example. You know, e commerce
has changed the way a lot of things. There's just
so many Anybody that has a really strong economic outlook
(01:00:05):
in this in this in this environment. We have a
joke around here, which is the only guy we don't
trust is the guy who sounds the most certain, right,
just because it's it's such, it's such a black box. However,
if I was to look at things that I think
are potential hat tips, I saw one today that I
(01:00:28):
think is a little bit concerning for several different reasons.
Ferrari had a big earnings miss, okay, and and they
forward guidance was down. The reason I think that that's
a concern is again what we were talking about with
the stock market. The rich, the middle class used to
drive this economy. That is no longer the case. It's
(01:00:48):
the rich that's what's driving the economy. The rich is
all who buys Ferraris. If the rich quit spending the
way they're spending, we're in trouble. This economy is in
trouble because because middle class is tapped, I mean, we're
a top heavy economy.
Speaker 2 (01:01:04):
Oh more so than we've ever been.
Speaker 20 (01:01:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 31 (01:01:06):
Right, And and if you think about what's going on
in our economy, meaning the wealth effect, right, the wealth
continues to get more and more concentrated, more and more
few hands. One of the troubles with that is that
the wealth wealthier you are, the less benefit that increase
profits and increased.
Speaker 2 (01:01:26):
Money to you.
Speaker 31 (01:01:29):
Right, So the less benefit you bring to the overall economy.
And the reason why is the wealthier you are, the
lower percentage of your income you're going to spend.
Speaker 16 (01:01:41):
Right.
Speaker 31 (01:01:41):
So Let's say I make five million dollars a year,
and all of a sudden, this year my page jumps
up twenty percent and I'm making six million year. That's
probably not going to change my personal spending habits nowsoever.
Speaker 16 (01:01:57):
Right.
Speaker 2 (01:01:58):
And so that's the other problem is that the people are.
Speaker 31 (01:02:01):
That with that are winning the biggest in this economy
are already people that are already rich.
Speaker 2 (01:02:06):
Right.
Speaker 16 (01:02:07):
So so.
Speaker 2 (01:02:09):
When the market's going up, it isn't helping the middle class.
The middle class owns almost no stock.
Speaker 31 (01:02:16):
Right, so you know, all they're all they're getting the
experience of with these asset prices going up, is just
they've got to pay more for the yeah.
Speaker 16 (01:02:25):
Right.
Speaker 31 (01:02:25):
So and at a certain point, and I chat, I
I think you're getting close. I think you're getting close
from this thing running out of steam. The reason why
I cited the Ferrari numbers you know, we cited E
cited how you know the middle class buy and large
has been left on the side of the road for
(01:02:46):
this vast majority of this run We talked about the
potential destructive, not potential the apps in without question, the
the destructive part of AIS technology. There's so many vulnerabilities here.
And then you look at input costs pretty much. Whatever
those input costs, whether their energy, whether they're rare roof metals,
(01:03:09):
whether those costs are going up. I just I just
don't you have an economy in a market that requires
increasing prices to continue going up? And I just I
think you're kind of I think you're really pressing the
edge of the runway here, meaning I just I don't
think the consumer can can keep pace with the way
(01:03:30):
things are moving up. And if the consumer cannot keep
pace with the way things keep moving up in price,
what does that mean? That means that prices will have
to fall, That means that will depress corporate earnings and
you get a recession.
Speaker 2 (01:03:45):
What does that look like? I don't know. I don't
think it's going to be apocalyptic. Why do I say that?
Speaker 31 (01:03:50):
Because what's going to happen when we hit recession they're
going to print all money.
Speaker 2 (01:03:53):
Yeah, well, especially this administration, they're not gonna let me
you know. No. Well, look any administration over the last
umpteen you know administrations, but Trump it's not going to
say no on my watch.
Speaker 32 (01:04:04):
No, no.
Speaker 31 (01:04:05):
And and quite honestly, that's the other scary point. I
think you've passed. I think you've crossed over the rubicon
as far as that's not even an answer. That's not
even an option anymore. Right, austerity, doing the discipline thing,
taking that disciplined approach, it's not an option. We've turned
the too big defail banks into too big to a
fail economy. Yeah, two big defail corporations, two big default
(01:04:27):
chip companies, two big def I mean, you name it right,
And and we just keep doubling down on the strategy
over and over and over and over.
Speaker 2 (01:04:35):
And it's not good. None of this is good.
Speaker 31 (01:04:39):
And yet at the same time, we've got to keep
our foot on the pedal on the AI race because
we can't let we can't afford to let the China's
of the world pass us off.
Speaker 2 (01:04:48):
No, I mean that the AI thing is it's fun
for everybody to play around with it to be great.
You know, for all the neat things and may take
your job. But the reality is is the AI race
has nothing to do with with business and more it
has all to do with with with war. That's I mean,
that's it. That it has all to do with defense
and war nothing else.
Speaker 31 (01:05:06):
Yep, And and and you know that's the other thing
is in an AI bubble here in the United States.
Of course, it is another easy way to tell. There
are a bunch of companies around the world.
Speaker 2 (01:05:14):
China has a bunch.
Speaker 31 (01:05:15):
South America has a bunch companies that have effectively copied
the large US tech company models, right and become the
you know, like JD dot Com, Ali Baba kind of
Amazons of China, right, Mercado Libra kind of an Amazon
of South America.
Speaker 16 (01:05:32):
Right.
Speaker 31 (01:05:32):
You've got these companies for Okay, their stocks have not
reacted to any of this to anywhere close to the
level of US tech Okay, So AI is just going
to be profit beneficial to US tech companies.
Speaker 2 (01:05:47):
How does it? How does that? How doesn't it cut
that way in China?
Speaker 31 (01:05:52):
Why is Ali Baba not trading at twenty five times
sales like US tech companies are, right, you know, in
a lot of ways you could make the argument that
I'd much rather own Chinese tech here.
Speaker 2 (01:06:03):
You don't want to know why.
Speaker 31 (01:06:04):
It's a fraction of the price, and the Chinese government
has already proven to be protectionists, meaning they're not gonna
let US Tech run in there and destroy their tech companies.
Speaker 16 (01:06:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 31 (01:06:13):
Right, so they've got one point one billion people. You're
saying AI is going to be this boom guys. AI
doesn't care whether you speak Cantonese or English, right, Like
I how this does not apply to any tech companies
outside the United States, I find hilarious. So you know,
(01:06:33):
do I feel that comfortable owning Chinese stocks? No, there's
things about them that concern me for a variety of reasons.
I'll tell you this right now, I would much rather
own Chinese tech than US tech right now, trading it
a fraction of the price, and it's actually gonna make
a lot of money off AI. The other thing is
the Chinese government is stimulating like crazy right now, and
(01:06:55):
it's I have never seen more vapid investment thinking than
I see in this environment today.
Speaker 2 (01:07:00):
It's really amazing. It's crazy. Talking to Zach A. Ram,

As we wrap up this hour, maybe we should take
a listen back to all the chaos and craziness that
happened this week, because kids, there was all kinds of
chaos and craziness.
Speaker 11 (01:09:32):
I'm just here keeping my eye on snel making sure
they don't know anything too mean about me. And they
better be careful because I know late night TV like
the back of my hands.
Speaker 12 (01:09:42):
If you didn't understand what I just said, you have
four months to learn.
Speaker 17 (01:09:49):
I've found one hundred dollars walking me, my beautiful I
know who.
Speaker 16 (01:09:53):
I'll say it didn't.
Speaker 13 (01:09:55):
Boy's burning a hold.

Speaker 13 (01:10:01):
And it's fine.
Speaker 2 (01:10:11):
It's fine.
Speaker 1 (01:10:17):
The air pollution and other problems and the state could
lose out of my shock well to those voters. Okay, So,
so you I don't want to keep doing this, I'm
gonna call it.
Speaker 20 (01:10:28):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (01:10:28):
You're not gonna do the interview with them? No, it's
not like this. I'm not not with seven follow ups
to every single question you ask it's fun.
Speaker 13 (01:10:42):
It's fine.
Speaker 15 (01:10:49):
It is illegal, in fact to call out the National
Guard or to uh send troops into American cities. The
pass Comatatis Act prohibits that christ.
Speaker 4 (01:11:00):
By people because there's no other reason that this could
be possible, that they don't want to have a safe Chicago.
Speaker 13 (01:11:06):
MONI hurt my head.
Speaker 17 (01:11:09):
Un they wonder Wendy had a thirty hours slowly unity Monday.
Speaker 16 (01:11:21):
I'm free.
Speaker 2 (01:11:23):
I'm trouble forget.
Speaker 4 (01:11:35):
Remember October seventh was terrible, but also from the Hamma standpoint,
they probably lost seventy thousand.
Speaker 5 (01:11:43):
As for Gossen, some celebrations, but this morning the bombing
BI Israel has not stopped.
Speaker 18 (01:11:49):
Thank you, President Trump for your courage, thank you for
the comp demonstration, for doing everything you can to bring
him home.
Speaker 2 (01:11:56):
This is a tsunami of Donald Trump's creation. I think,
hope and pray that it ends in about a week.
Speaker 14 (01:12:01):
And I'm very.
Speaker 3 (01:12:02):
Disappointed in me because you do have the power to
call the house back.
Speaker 27 (01:12:05):
You refuse to do that.
Speaker 2 (01:12:07):
Just for show Man, what a week right, three, two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson shows your exs,
your insta, YouTube and more, Fhumisity Show great the podcast
right here in the chat Benson Show. All right, coming
up our number three of the program, more on the
(01:12:27):
Nobel Peace Prize. Got a lot of stuff people are
chiming in about that should he shouldn't he? Because he
wants it.
Speaker 16 (01:12:36):
We know that.
Speaker 2 (01:12:37):
Plus we get a little watch trending. Our buddy Jim
Kennedy and the Kennedy Institute of Public Policy Research joins
the program. And then we're gonna wrap it up with
scary Movie Countdown number sixteen. This movie that we will
talk about today. Not only was it terrifying, it changed
a genre and it also built a studio. So buckle up, kids,
(01:13:01):
get ready our number three, straight ahead Chad Benson Show.
Speaker 1 (01:13:06):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.
Speaker 2 (01:13:35):
The Beast in the Middle East absolutely kind of sort
of I think that's the best way to describe that,
but still epic giant moves towards it, which is awesome.
But it wasn't easy because while Trump says you're doing
(01:13:55):
all these things, babe, one thing that hasn't been talked about.
It went laid into the night yesterday where Bib was
trying to sell everybody in his cabinet. We're doing this
because he's got their defense minister, Ben Givier and Smodriz
(01:14:16):
their finance minister, arguably next to Bib, the two most
powerful politicians, maybe both hardcore Zionists. Both threatened to resign
if this was taken up, and I think Bibe just
looked at him and said, no, I don't think you
get it. We're not being told you guys, debate it
(01:14:39):
and come back to us and see if you want it.
That guy said we're doing this. He said, you're gonna
do it. You're gonna love it and stop killing each other.
What or or we could not do it? And I
have a feeling he's serious about us going it alone.
(01:15:00):
So yeah, So that finally happened, and here we are.
It's gonna be interesting, there's no doubt. We talked about
it last hour. The phases that probably won't make it,
and some of them may not make it just because
they're not necessary, but then there's gonna be some that
(01:15:23):
The distrust is strong in this. The distrust in this
is strong from both sides. But having a third party,
which will be several parties, but like one joint unified
group of folk who are from several different You know,
you're gonna have the Emiratis, probably the Kataris, the Egyptians,
(01:15:48):
and a few others. You're gonna have some Europeans as
well as well as Americans, and yes, boots.
Speaker 3 (01:15:53):
There is cautious optimism about what is a very significant
step towards peace. And we have just learned that the
US is sending two hundred troops to Israel to monitor
this cease fire from there, and that President Trump himself
is traveling to the region in the coming days.
Speaker 2 (01:16:09):
Some of them may go over to Gaza. They're going
to be in positions to monitor and to really play referee.
Speaker 3 (01:16:21):
The President's twenty point plan had called for Hamas to
disarm and for Gaza to be governed by an apolitical
Palestinian committee overseen by an international Board of Peace, with
Trump as its chairman. I asked the President what comes next,
what guarantees Hamas disarms and that Israel doesn't resume bombing
once the hostages are we're just back in Gaza. Hope,
(01:16:45):
but also uncertainty. I hope this happiness will be fulfilled
and the ceasefire deal will last. This displaced mother says
we don't want them to take their hostages and then
return to war.
Speaker 2 (01:16:59):
That's something I don't think can be discounted that the administration,
Jared Kushner, Witkoff, all of them deserve credit that Hamas
and the Palestinian people are saying, okay, mister President, Okay, America,
we're going to trust you in this. We're we're going
(01:17:20):
to trust that you are going to be as good
as your word in this this right now, We're going
to trust you, which is hard for Israel to do
as well. So there's gonna be ebbs and flows. I
said it, it's gonna be you know, forward, backwards, up, down,
it's gonna This is not a one and done we
(01:17:40):
got this. There is going to be some issues, no doubt,
in the coming days and weeks because of the mistrust.
I mean, one one situation where a piece of paper
may fly somewhere because of the wind could start them.
(01:18:01):
But I think it is the right step. And like
I said, the right step of all of this was
having finally groups of people throughout the Middle East and
elsewhere taking on some responsibility in this rather than just
(01:18:21):
bitching about it. So we shall see cautiously optimistic I say,
he really wants a Nobel Peace Prize. Did you guys
know that He's told everybody that, everyone says that I
should get the Nobel Peace Prize. Everybody says that.
Speaker 6 (01:18:36):
Unfortunately, today the Nuigian No About Committee has decided to
award the Nobel Peace Price for twenty twenty five Trump
del Trump Maria Krina Machado. Huh, she's receiving the Nobel
Peace Price for her tireless work promoting democratic rights for
(01:18:59):
the people of Venezuela.
Speaker 2 (01:19:02):
Now I saw several people say, you know, he got robbed.
He didn't because these things take place over a year.
This peace process and a few of the other ones
have just come together, and this is the one that,
if it holds, will get him to the front of
the line. I mean politics and all these things will
(01:19:24):
be you know something, but this is it's like the
Academy Award. We're gonna talk to buddy Jim Kennedy Kennedy
and Public Policy Research, because I was joking to him
the other day. You know, the Academy Award. You'll see
at the end of the year that movies that think
they're going to have a shot at the Academy they'll
(01:19:46):
open up for a weekend in New York, LA Chicago
in one or two theaters. Because what that does is
it gets them on the list for the Academy. Trump
wasn't on the list yet because that that kind of
date to be submitted had passed. It's the best way
to describe now that being said, still pissed about Obama
(01:20:06):
getting one. Obama got a prize. He didn't even know
what he got it.
Speaker 7 (01:20:09):
He got elected and they gave it to Obama for
doing absolutely nothing but destroying our country. No, he was
not a good president. The worst president was sleepy Joe Biden.
But Obama was not a good president.
Speaker 2 (01:20:24):
Obama got the Noel Peace Prize for, you know, helping
the Muslims by bombing them non stop, getting us into
more wars. So there's that. I don't know if that's
how this works. I thought it was. You're supposed to
stop stuff like this. The Peace Prize is always interesting
(01:20:45):
because when they give it up for science and medicine,
I'm always curious about because those guys are such nerds.
And I saw one. Well, first of all, right, now
they're looking for a scientist that they gave it to
because nobody has his number and they can't find him,
which is kind of funny. Then they had one where
they finally got a hold of a neighbor who you
(01:21:10):
can see the ring doorbell. He goes over to the
house and he knocks out. He's like Jim, Like, here's Jim.
Speaker 16 (01:21:15):
Jim.
Speaker 2 (01:21:15):
It's Tim from next door. I hate him, Jim. People
are trying to get a hold of you. Why you
won the Nobel Peace Prize. Oh good, I mean, that's
she's so bizarre. Such weirdos the lady who did win it,
by the way, kudos to her.
Speaker 6 (01:21:35):
In the past year, Miss Machado has been forced to
live in hiding. Despite serious threats against her life, she
has remained in the country, a choice that has inspired millions.
Speaker 2 (01:21:54):
And don't you worry, don't you fret, because I'm not
saying I'm not saying it's happening, but there's a good
chance that Maduro may not be that longer. Just putting
that out there, So good for her. And yes, I
(01:22:15):
do believe I saw somebody today say was it Kate
whatever her name is on CNN's do you think that
Trump really pushed for the peace plan because he wants
to win an elbow a Peerce prize. That's like saying
to somebody, hey, did you score that goal in the
World Cup final because you wanted to win. It's just
the dumbest thing in the world to say. It's just
(01:22:39):
h good god, good god.
Speaker 16 (01:22:42):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (01:22:42):
Speaking of dumb. You may think it's dumb, but I
think it's serious. And we talk about war a lot.
What about the war of words.
Speaker 11 (01:22:51):
He has on me?
Speaker 32 (01:22:52):
And almost end enough to buy the legal battle over
Kendrick Lamar is Not Like Us, a distract directed at
fellow REPS superstar Drake, could be near its end after
a federal judge tossed Drake's defamation suit against this labeled
universal music group, determining.
Speaker 33 (01:23:08):
The song's lyrics in question our non actionable opinion.
Speaker 2 (01:23:13):
So I just want to make sure this went to
court because you I'm trying to figure this out non
actionable opinion as what I'm just why are we you
in court again?
Speaker 33 (01:23:28):
Lamar, who is also represented by UMG, is not a defendant,
but Drake asked the court to take a look at
these lyrics.
Speaker 13 (01:23:36):
I hate you like them?
Speaker 26 (01:23:37):
Young?
Speaker 16 (01:23:38):
You better I ever go to sail black one.
Speaker 33 (01:23:40):
The judge Categorizing the lyrics as dealing the metaphorical killing blow,
but adding the broader contexts of a heated rap battle
with incendiary language and offensive accusations hurled by both participants
would not incline the reasonable listener to believe not like
us in parts verifiable facts.
Speaker 2 (01:23:58):
Okay, I like how the judge threw it down. That's
the metaphorical death blow. Oh man, Sometimes you just gotta
go what's going on in other places in the world. Oh,
this is happening rap battles in court because he said
something mean about me, and people may believe it to
(01:24:20):
be true. Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four,
twenty three at Chad Benson show it to your ex,
your Insta, YouTube, Facebook, and more. Somebody texts and says,
you know, you give out that stuff a lot. I
could only listen to you three hours a day, and
I think you're a blowhard or whatever. I'm like, oh,
thanks for listening to me, and I won't go watch
you anywhere else as I was, Okay, I appreciate you
(01:24:40):
listening to me. And we do this because it's the
world we live in now. So and the other thing
is because you could connect with me all the time,
like when you send me a text message and I
answer it when I'm not on the air, So the
connection is there. That's why, that's why we do things
like that. Okay, okay, relief factor amazing, incredible. Let me
(01:25:04):
tell some about relief factor. I am working out more
than I have in a long time. I'm feeling better
and it's because of relief factor. And it is amazing
because before relief factor, my wife and I we'd work
out a little bit, we'd be sore for a couple
of days, you know, because I had just gotten away
from working out and stuff. Started taking a relief factor,
and within a few days everything had changed. I am
(01:25:27):
lifting more weights, I'm running more. I'm going up and
down the stairs here. Try to do that a bunch
during the day. And then I'm playing tons of pickleball.
My shoulders, my muscles, they feel a thousand times better.
You can take it every single day, Okay. It's for
aches and pains and your muscles and joints. And if
you're doing something really physical, and you know what happens.
You do something physical on a Monday, and it's Wednesday
(01:25:48):
before you feel okay, and Thursday before you're back to normal.

yesterday was not that time. Next year, next year, shutdown government,
(01:27:26):
Mark Sanchez, Latitia James, she's being charged with mortgage fraud.

Irony kids is what that's called. Over the Twitter, Spanberger
(01:27:47):
and Earl Sears clash in Virginia debate the governor, transgender policy,
abortion and the scandal of Jay Johnson. It was just
if you, if you'd it's honest to God's like a
Saturday Night Live debate. And we've talked about, you know,
the ag hopeful who sent out the horrific text messages
(01:28:12):
and the Democrat wouldn't go against just tried to talk
around the fact that the guy fantasized about killing the
former Speaker of the House of Virginia. It's just who
are you?
Speaker 16 (01:28:26):

Chaplin passed away one hundred and six. Also trending, Philippines earthquake.
There was a big one. Tsunami warnings have passed now,
thank god for that. Just a few of the thanks.
Trending in the magical world of Google. It is funny though,
(01:29:39):
right when it comes to what trends in certain areas
and what doesn't. And like we talked about this week,
a third of people were unaware that the government was
shut a third of Americans. I was talking about that
yesterday when Buddy Can were on the Local Show, and
(01:30:00):
I said some of that when I think about it
is maddening that you aren't aware. And then there's a
portion where you're like, yet, I bet your life is
just blissful. Just smile on your face, not caring about
what's going on because you don't know what's going on,
and you're okay with that. It's got to be something
(01:30:22):
freeing about that. We're like, I don't care, So what
do you think of apples?
Speaker 8 (01:30:26):
That?
Speaker 2 (01:30:26):
Are those apples? All right? Coming up our buddy, Jim
Kennedy Kennedy Institute the Public Policy Research, going to join
the program. We've been talking about Gaza, a few other things.
Nobel Peace Prize. We'll talk to them a little bit
about that. On top of that, we've got it number
(01:30:47):
sixteen today on our Scary Movie Countdown. A unique one
to say the least. We have a lot of fun
with that. Reach out to us across all of our
social media at Chad Benson Show. That's your ex, your Insta, YouTube, Facebook,
and more. Jim Kennedy joins the program Straight Ahead, Chad
Benson chap The Chad Benson.
Speaker 1 (01:31:05):
Show, The Chad Benson Show.
Speaker 2 (01:31:27):
It is that time of the week. We talk to
our goodbody, Jim Kennedy. Kennedy. It's the Dada BA Black
Ballacy Race. There's Jim. Give him his Nobel Prize.
Speaker 34 (01:31:37):
Jim, give it to him, absolutely deserves it and he's
assisted in lots of other countries and lots of other
conflicts Owzer by jan our meaning which has been going
on for decades. Assisted there, he's hopefully keeping Pakistan in
India from nuking each other.
Speaker 16 (01:31:52):
So yeah, it most definitely deserves it.
Speaker 34 (01:31:53):
I know that they don't want to give it to
him because I know they despise him with a passion,
and I know that the liberal media would absolutely freak out.
So for those reasons alone, please give it to them,
because it's worth the entertainment factor of watching so many
TDS based individuals on social media and in the media
go crazy about it. There would certainly be an entertainment
that would be most valuable for America.
Speaker 2 (01:32:15):
Yeah, I would. You know, Look, I've got my problems
at times with Trump, and I'll tell everybody how good
he is when he does some good, and if he
does some wacky, I'll say it. It's hard to ignore
something that is I mean, dude, I'm fifty four. Long
before I was born and you were born, all of
these people were fighting and there didn't seem to be
(01:32:36):
a way forward outside of just complete destruction. And now
there may be something. And again there's going to be
some steps forward, there's going to be some steps backwards.
Not everybody was thrilled by this. I saw to that
Modric and ben gevere All they were not happy. The
Zionist ward was coalition was beyond pissed. Didn't want to
(01:32:56):
accept it. But it it's not just it's the fact
that the effort was made in a way that no
other president, you know, no matter how you feel about Trump,
no other president. Bush didn't do it, Obama didn't do it. Trump,
I'll argue Trump the first term couldn't have done this. Sure,
(01:33:18):
and and and you know and and yeah, Clinton tried,
but this is something where Wow, I think it's you know,
he got a coalition of groups of people that normally
wouldn't be together to try to get this thing done.
So how could you ignore that?
Speaker 34 (01:33:32):
No, Absolutely, and the Abraham you know, the the Ambram
Accords from the first term. We're a good start for
some of the not this deal, but for some of
the other areas within the Middle East of reducing tensions.
Speaker 16 (01:33:44):
You know, I'm wondering about the Katari attack.
Speaker 34 (01:33:48):
Would would that have been you know, is it possible
that that was actually helpful to the point where the
Kataris went back because they're the I mean, not a
big sponsor, but they let hamas the leadership live there.
Speaker 16 (01:33:58):
Did they think that maybe to the point where like, look,
these guys are crazy.
Speaker 34 (01:34:02):
We've got to end this because who knows what else
they're going to do next if they're crazy enough to
bomb us, you know, in the middle of Katar.
Speaker 2 (01:34:09):
Talking to Jim Kennedy Kennedy Institute of a Public Policy
Research Dude, there's no way you can't. This is where
Trump drives me crazy. No, there are not riots that
are endangering the lives of everybody in Portland. It's Portlandia.
Speaker 16 (01:34:24):
It's what it is.
Speaker 2 (01:34:24):
There are people dressed like chickens, people doing you know. Yeah,
have there been some wack of new stuff that has happened, yes,
but it is not an insurrection. And I don't want
to see the military policing. I just don't want to
see it. That we have a constitution for a reason.
Speaker 34 (01:34:44):
Yeah, Portland and Chicago are two very different. I mean,
they're both crime problems, they're very different. Crime problem in
Chicago is a real crime problem. Portland's problem is very
similar to San Francisco's, where there is a crime problem.
The crime problem is tied almost exclusively to the homeless.
There is very small, if any gang problem in Portland.
This is a homeless problem. It's a drug problem, and
(01:35:05):
it's things like that. Now, the problem there now is
fact that they've become very militant and they have been
for well, I don't know, probably five years now, since
Trump was since since the twenty twenty riots where they
were the you know, the lefties, and yeah, it is
like Portlandia, except I think the I think col McLaughlin
might have.
Speaker 16 (01:35:23):
Been a more stable mayor than the current mayor that
they've got there.
Speaker 34 (01:35:25):
So I don't know, maybe you know, maybe this is
where truth meet truth and reality kind of clash, or
fiction and reality clash together.
Speaker 16 (01:35:33):
But the problem now is is in.
Speaker 34 (01:35:34):
Addition to that is to protect is protecting Ice because
they're vehemently going after the ICE agents and they've got
every time they try to go out, they've got you know,
these protesters are lining up and that stuff, and they're
and they're they are causing problems like you've seen the
you know, Christy Gnome up on the balcony of the
hotel or whatever it is. Ability it overlooks it and
there is a problem. But yeah, you can't really, you know,
(01:35:56):
you can't put the military out through everything called the
posse Cooma Tatis, which prevents the military from being law
enforcement against its own people.
Speaker 16 (01:36:03):
Now, Chicago's a different.
Speaker 34 (01:36:04):
Problem, and I don't know what you're going to do
with that if you really had a governor and well
you got printz skiers like that's really kind of writes
that one off, and the mayor is an absolute joke.
If they were really serious about their people and their safety,
they would let the National Guard come in and clean
some of the problem up. But it's also a deeper
problem than that, because okay, sure you go and rest
(01:36:25):
all the gang bangers and take away their guns and
so on, they'll go back out and get more on
the street. And are they going to get prosecutor are
they going to go to jail? And that's part of
the problem that why DC was such a mess. And
I want to see what's going to happen in DC
in six months, because I think they're going to be
actively prosecuting these people that we're committing the crimes versus Chicago,
or is it just going to be a legal system
(01:36:46):
where they're basically going to go in get released on
no bail and be back out in twenty four hours
and go back and committing more crimes and then get
arrested again and then go back out on the streets,
because there really isn't any sort of a process to
actually criminally convict these people because of you know, because
of poor you know, because of what prosecutors and woke judges.
Speaker 2 (01:37:05):
Talking to Jim Kennedy Kennedy Institute of Public Policy Research,
how are you feeling about the economy, Because again, we
consider and talk about all the other things, but dude,
let's be honest, it's the economy stupid. You got a
government shutdown. And I think Marjorie Taylor Green, like her
hater be mad at her because she's not mag enough
or she's do maga for this. The fact is she's
(01:37:27):
looking and saying, my kids can't afford healthcare. Healthcare is
through the roof. She ain't lying about that. And the
Republicans could really be in some trouble if twenty two
million Americans saw their healthcare double and they didn't have
a fix for.
Speaker 16 (01:37:42):
It, Yeah, that's going to have to skip started out.
Speaker 34 (01:37:45):
And the thing was, you know, the Republicans wanted to
clean you know, consuming resolution, and then they'd come back
and address the Obamacare mandates, the Affordable Care Act, which
we're finding out isn't affordable because it requires massive government
subsidies to keep it solvent. And I think those, you know,
those that need to be addressed, and they'll probably get
majority of those. So yes, because yes, if you have
(01:38:05):
twenty two million Americans who healthcare premiums double, it is
something that is not going to go over well and
it's not what you want going into the midterm election.
That also, Membory, and you've brought this up to health
insurance is not health care. That's a whole different thing
we need to look at because I know that if
you go out like for example, I've taken a look
at these things where if you go out there and
(01:38:26):
you go in and you need an MRI, okay, there's
like three or four different prices for an MRI.
Speaker 16 (01:38:32):
You have insurance, the insurance company pays the price for it.
Speaker 34 (01:38:36):
If you have you know, a if you don't have
insurance but you're wealthy and you're willing to pay cash
up front, that's a different price. If you're somebody who
doesn't have insurance and it gets starts back to the government.
That's another price for it. So all of these things
have different prices for providing the same service. There is
no additional cost to giving me good insurance and MRI
(01:38:57):
versus my friend who's insurance doesn't cover it, but he
can afford to write a check for twelve hundred dollars
for it. There is no there was no difference in
them delivering that service other than maybe a few pieces
of paper as far as paperwork get through to build
the insurance company. So that's what's really got to get
looked at. And you know, something like a healthcare bill
of rights, which I've actually taken a look at, and
you can take a look out of my substack.
Speaker 16 (01:39:17):
That is a way to kind of eliminate some of
these problems.
Speaker 34 (01:39:20):
You really need to make this more competitive market price
to wear because I've you know, I've had my encounter.
Speaker 16 (01:39:26):
With the health insurance business.
Speaker 34 (01:39:28):
Luckily, knock on wood, things have gone well for me,
but I had an incident where I had to go
right or I'd go to an er surely after having
major surgery. The bill for that was forty two thousand
dollars by the time the insurance company paid their cut
or or basically got their negotiated rate with the hospital.
It was nine hundred and eighty one dollar. Now where
did that, you know, where did the other ninety four
(01:39:50):
percent of that bill go? Were they just marking up
charges because they knew the insurance company wasn't going to
pay it? What if I actually had to pay it myself,
I had to pay cash. Was it really going to
be forty one one thousand dollars or was it going
to be something like twenty seven hundred dollars?
Speaker 16 (01:40:03):
Maybe I don't know, And that is just crazy.
Speaker 34 (01:40:05):
We've got to, you know, and that is actually healthcare,
which is the delivery part of it, which is the
cost that drives the premiums and the rates for health insurance.
So those two things are need to be looked at separately.
But the second one is a much harder question to resolve,
and we do need to look at that somehow while
keeping a free market system that gives us some of
the best healthcare in the world and some of the
(01:40:26):
best options in the.
Speaker 2 (01:40:27):
World, no doubt about that. His name is Jim Kennedy.
Kennedy inst the Data Public Ballance Rasearch. If people want
to reach out to you and go Jim, what's your substack?
Where are you on the ax?
Speaker 16 (01:40:36):
What do they do?
Speaker 2 (01:40:37):

whole thing is crazy. We're gonna do that straight ahead
Chad Benson.
Speaker 35 (01:42:34):
Show, serving up talk radio, medium, rare and dripping with irony.
Speaker 1 (01:42:48):
It's Chad Benson.
Speaker 2 (01:42:50):
As we wrapped the show today, we continue our countdown
to the greatest scary movie of all time. Today, we've
got a character that is a cultural icon that changed
the way that people looked at I guess you would
say slasher movies. Also, oddly enough, the movie was written
based on a story that was in the paper about what,
(01:43:14):
oh way do you hear this?
Speaker 27 (01:43:17):
The time has come, so prepare yourself for a journey
of fear from the darkest corner of cinema, the most
bone chilling tales ever told. It's the countdown you've been
waiting for. Which movie will take the top spot? How
(01:43:39):
about a fish tail so big because.
Speaker 2 (01:43:42):
The Jaws opened wide?
Speaker 27 (01:43:48):
Or the story of a young innocent girl battling evil
with sin HELI.
Speaker 2 (01:43:55):
Well, then let's introduce ourselves. I'm Damian Karas and I'm
the Cavil. You'll have to listen to find out. Are
you ready?
Speaker 27 (01:44:04):
Number sixteen?
Speaker 2 (01:44:07):
All right? Number sixteen changed a lot of things. We
had had slasher movies before, you had the Michael Yeah, Jason,
but this guy totally different. You see this guy while
(01:44:27):
he slashed, he also spoke. Oh and with him he
brought Schumer and some edge oh and claws.
Speaker 28 (01:44:42):
The kids of Elm Street.
Speaker 2 (01:44:44):
I don't know it yet, but something is coming.
Speaker 28 (01:44:47):
To get them.
Speaker 1 (01:44:48):
There's something out there isn't.
Speaker 2 (01:44:56):
Let me just see cuts happening.
Speaker 28 (01:44:58):
What did happen?
Speaker 2 (01:44:59):
TI, I don't know A corn I got to say.
It's in a John Pukins since he saw it, We're
gonna kill me for sure.
Speaker 16 (01:45:07):
Did you do it?
Speaker 2 (01:45:08):
There was somebody else there. He was locked in a
room with a girl who went in alive and came
out in a rubber bag.
Speaker 28 (01:45:15):
No one knows where it came from or who would.
Speaker 29 (01:45:18):
Visit the next Nancy, I's something wrong with you. Your
imagine Nightmare on Elm Street.
Speaker 11 (01:45:26):
You live.
Speaker 2 (01:45:27):
No, whatever you do, don't fall.
Speaker 28 (01:45:36):
No West Craven, director of The Hills, Have Eyes and
Last House on the Left of a New Master Easton
Fantasy Terror of Nightmare on Elm.
Speaker 2 (01:45:46):
Street terrified me, but I loved it. I was like thirteen,
I think fourteen. I went and saw this movie. Was
I went on a date, double date my buddy Rusty
and Eye. Oh it was great. And I tell you what,
it was awesome. It's nice. Freddie scared the girls right
into your arms. The movie itself was incredible, though again
(01:46:09):
Freddie spoke. Freddie did things that other slashers didn't do
and whatnot. He had personality, He was funny, but he
was terrifying. And he came to you in your dreams.
And what you're going to find out is everybody dreams.
Everybody does and you're like, oh, and then the thought processes.
Could you actually die in your dreams? What happens when
you die in your dreams? Because dreams are really not studied.
(01:46:31):
Even though they're studied, it's hard to figure out what
they are, which brings us to this. Wes Craven saw
a few articles in La Times about young men Southeast
Asian ascent scaping war that had died in their sleep,
and then there was another big article about a mystery
of a young man that died in his sleep, and
(01:46:52):
that gave Wes an idea.
Speaker 30 (01:46:54):
He and his family had come out of the relocation
camps in Southeast Asia, I think Cambodia something like that.
They were now in the United States, living in some
place in California, and he had been troubled by severe nightmares.
Speaker 1 (01:47:05):
They had increased in.
Speaker 30 (01:47:06):
Intensity to the point where he had told his family,
they don't feel ordinary. They had a doctor prescribed sleepy
medicine for him, and his father insisted he take it.
It turned out later that he had spit them out,
and they also discovered later that he had a coffee
pot in his closet that he had kept with black
coffee to stay awake at night.
Speaker 2 (01:47:24):
So this had gone on.
Speaker 30 (01:47:26):
He had decided a certain point to stay awake and
not sleep, and after about three days he would be
downstairs watching television all through the night. They went down
and found him asleep on the couch, and the father
brought him back to his bed and they all went
to bed, and later in the night they heard screaming
and thrashing about. They ran into his room and before
they get to him, he fell dead. And the family
had had an autopsy done and there was no heart failure.
(01:47:49):
There's no sign of why he had died.
Speaker 2 (01:47:51):
Crazy Freddy was amazing his sweater colors Craven shows red
and green because they're the two colors most difficult for
the human eye to see side by side. Mudge at
one point eight million dollars turned into fifty seven million
dollars worldwide and launched New Line Cinema into the stratosphere.
And that's where when you used to go to New
Line Cinema. For many years, the only thing you'd see
(01:48:14):
around their poster wise was Freddy Krueger. They coined the
phrase the house that Freddy built. Oh by the way,
it also gave Johnny Depp his start. Wes Craven's daughter
thought he was dreamy. Freddy is a pop icon and
the impact he had not only in horror movies, but
movies in general as well as the culture can't be Tony.
