Speaker 1 (00:11):
The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Marry Christmas. So the Epstein files came out and wow,
so I tweeted out the other day.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
Let'll tell you guys this, this is what's going to
be on there. Nothing and if there is anything, it'll
be bad for basically any Democrat or.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
Bill Clinton, but mostly Bill Clinton. That's it. Mostly.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
So out came this and remember it was a law
that this had to come out, and lo and behold nothing.

Speaker 4 (00:58):
With these members of Congress will say they are very
concerned that the FBI had a lot of time to.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
Comply with this law.

Speaker 4 (01:05):
Republican Thomas Massey Democrat Rocanna are now considering and they
are drafting or resolution to hold Attorney General Pam Bondi
in contempt of Congress for not fully following this law
and releasing every single file the FBI has by the
deadline of last Friday.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Yeah, and they think they've got an opportunity to do that.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
Rocan has been everywhere talking about it this weekend, as
has Thomas Massey. That you guys didn't do what you
was supposed to do, and they basically.

Speaker 5 (01:39):
Did not provide the documents that are most relevant, that
is the sixty count indictment that was drafted, and shalped
Epstein was only charged on two counts. There is a
draft indictment of sixty counts. They didn't provide that. They
didn't provide the prosecution memo. In fact, the law was
explicitly drafted saying we want decisions of communication about whether

(02:03):
to charge or not. We want internal communications precisely to
cover to those documents that they have not provided. They
had excessive redactions, they have not provided the FBI files.
In one case, they leaked accidentally the name of a survivor,
but did not release the FBI files, which she has
been trying to see for years.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
It was everything you thought it was going to be.
It leaves far more questions and answers. You knew you
were never going to get it all. And they're going to,
you know, try to convince people on the right that
this is a giant hoax, that it's not real that
you know, hell, they're probably trying to convince it. He

(02:43):
didn't even exist. It didn't exist. You wanted him to,
but he didn't, and we knew it, and they made
it up because that's what they do.

Speaker 5 (02:50):
And so then this morning Massey and I went on
face the nation and said we're going to hold up
Pambani and Bondi and inherent contempt, and we've got Republicans
ready to do that as well and find her every
day after a thirty day grace period if she doesn't.

Speaker 6 (03:05):
Release the documents.

Speaker 5 (03:06):
And suddenly you started to see you know, the Justice
wromans with scrambling all day. Now they put out one
hundred and nineteen page document without reactions or with minimal reactions.
They're saying there are more documents that are coming, so
they're obviously scrambling. And the reason they're scrambling is they
know that this is not just Rocanna or.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
A King Jeffries.

Speaker 5 (03:24):
This is a lot of people in their own base
who are calling for Pambondi's head politically, and they are scrambling.

Speaker 7 (03:32):
At this point.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
Remember they did this to themselves.

Speaker 3 (03:35):
Okay, you did this to you, You did this to you,
you pushed it, you said it was all of these things.
Everybody knew there was something out there. But then you
went on how many podcasts, how many places, how many
speeches did you talk about releasing going to get these
out there, We're going to hold these people accountable. And

(03:58):
yet at the end of the day, Alas, you've done nothing,
and it's all about protecting Who are you protecting? Because
for those of you out there on the right, the
older generation, right, they don't care. Now the stock market's great,
that's all you care about. Life is wonderful for you.
The younger generation is pissed. They felt that, Hey, here's

(04:19):
a populus president that wants to get to the bottom
of all of these things. He's sick and tired of
what he's seeing as the Washington swamp, and he's going
to take care of.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
It, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

Speaker 3 (04:29):
And this was one of the big things about coming
and getting everybody and doing the thing. And you didn't.
You didn't, You lied, and people are pissed about it.
I never expected to get all of it. At what
what I said the other day, what I tweeted out
was exactly what I thought I was going to get,
which is lots of redactions.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
Bill Clint's a bad guy. There we go.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
I mean think three, two, three, five, three, twenty four
to twenty three at Chadbinson Schocher extra insta YouTube and more.
Speaking of travels, see the way did that chaos, craziness, lunacy, busy.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 8 (05:12):
The TSA anticipates screening more than forty three million passengers
between December nineteenth and January fourth. It's so busy. The
FAA planning on using limited military air space if needed.
Out on the roads, Triple A says nearly one hundred
and ten million people will travel by car. That's up
two percent from last year, and drivers are expected to

(05:35):
find cheaper gas prices compared to this time last year,
which is good.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
And a lot of people are traveling, there's no doubt.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
I've got my daughter comes tomorrow, my eldest and my
son comes on Frayay, So pretty pomped about that. You
got a lot of fun stuff that we're going to
be doing. I'm doing all Kansku stuff, you know what,
thinking about doing, thinking about going curly, I know what,
you think a Nashville curling Yeah, they've got a huge
curling facility here, because why not. So we're thinking about

(06:06):
doing that. But you know, the travel I've talked to
a couple of friends. It's like, man, it is chaos
at the airport, like chaos here at LAX.

Speaker 9 (06:15):
It's not just about the number of travelers that we're
seeing just trying to maneuver through this airport. It is
the congestion of cars and people being dropped off here.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
It is tough to get to.

Speaker 9 (06:25):
When you reach kind of the gates of Lax, it
takes an additional fifteen minutes just to maneuver into the
parking areas. It goes to show the volume is here.

Speaker 8 (06:35):
The travelers are here, and they're ready to make it
to their Christmas destination.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
They are.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
And then there's one other thing, that crazy thing that
happens during travel kids, which is weather.

Speaker 9 (06:47):
It's always keeping in mind what the weather situation is
going to be, and out here out west, it's going
to be a little bit tricky. Right in southern California,
there's going to be wet weather, so that adds to
everybody's commute. Also the Pacific Northwest, we're looking at some
of the really heavy flooding and even areas with snowfall.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
It's ugly in a lot of places, and it is
going to be cold, nasty flurries. It's going to be
one of those situations where what no matter what you're doing,
whether you're flying or driving, understand that there's probably gonna
be some delays. There's gonna be some frustration, and that

(07:25):
the person next to you in the car doesn't want
to be in traffic any more than you do. And
the person getting ready to potentially take your ticket before
they have to announce that there's a delay doesn't want
that delay because they didn't wake up that morning morning
and say, oh man, I really want to ruin these
people's day.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
What could I do? We moved from there because we're
moving fast today.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
Guys. We got to there's so much stuff to get
to before we get to the fun stuff.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
You know.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
Venezuela, we're coming for you. There's a reason for that
oil being one of them.

Speaker 10 (07:56):
But I sure hope we don't go to war with Venezuela.

Speaker 11 (07:59):
And with the seizing of tankers and the blowing up
of dozens of boats. Kentucky Senator ran Paul Republican on
ABC's This Week.

Speaker 10 (08:06):
I considered a provocation and a prelude to war and.

Speaker 11 (08:09):
A contradiction for President Trump to declare he's stopping drugs
while pardoning a Honduran drug trafficker.

Speaker 10 (08:15):
It's a bizarre and contradictory policy.

Speaker 11 (08:18):
Venezuela cause the taking of ships, piracy, a violation of
international law.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
Again, the whole thing is bizarre, and the whole talk
about you know, oh that's the drugs and stuff.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
Nobody buys it. They're trying.

Speaker 3 (08:31):
Here's one thing though, and we've talked about it for
a while, the domino effect, and the domino effect is
Venezuela goes the goal as to what eventually see Cuba goo.
Cuba's in serious problem, I mean theous. They have serious problems,
I mean serious problems, not getting the oil, not getting
some of these things they need. This is a potential

(08:52):
to see them collapse, which is what.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
We've talked about.

Speaker 3 (08:57):
The all of these people and in particular in and
around mar Alago, Miami South Beach, these super influential people
who have come from Cuba and socialists Latin America who
want nothing more than to see both of these things

(09:21):
absolutely collapse. And I think they're on their way to
seeing that Cuba especially, That.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
Got to take a long time.

Speaker 12 (09:26):
Actually, what they're doing with Venezuela is crushing Cuba's economy.

Speaker 13 (09:31):
Yeah, those two nations are linked, they're trading partners.

Speaker 6 (09:34):
It hurts both.

Speaker 12 (09:35):
There are a lot of people that would be very
happy to see you know Castro's Cuba after all these
years collapse and that appears to be a part of this.

Speaker 3 (09:46):
We'll find out what that looks like and again tomorrow
we'll have a bigger conversation about this. Whether a buddy,
my clins are military analysts, but there's no doubt that
this is a This is the domino effect in the
way that it's going. The thing is, how long is
it going to take? And are we going to have
to do anything in Venezuela itself as far as boots

(10:10):
on the ground, which, God willing, we don't have to
do anything. God willing, my Christmas wish will come true
sooner rather than later.

Speaker 14 (10:20):
No ticket matched all six numbers, pushing the current run
even deeper into the record books. This was the forty
fifth drawing in this jackpot cycle.

Speaker 3 (10:28):
That's the most empowerball history.

Speaker 14 (10:30):
The jackpot hasn't been won since back in September, when
two tickets in Missouri and Texas split a one point
seven billion dollar prize.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
That's a lot.

Speaker 3 (10:41):
Tell me good news, Tell me how easy it is
to win.

Speaker 14 (10:43):
The current jackpot sits at one point six billion dollars
with an estimated cash value of just over seven hundred
and thirty five million dollars.

Speaker 7 (10:52):
But before you go out making deposits on yachts.

Speaker 14 (10:54):
And mansions, a reminder of the odds a staggering one
in two hundred and ninety two million.

Speaker 2 (11:01):

Be prepared for it. Are you prepared? You need to

Speaker 15 (12:59):
Joe, you're listening to the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
It's the holiday season. I'll tell you what I tell
my wife the other day.

Speaker 3 (13:19):
I feel like I'm gonna do okay this year because
usually when I start to take some time off, I
get a little bit of the flu.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
And this year the flu is nasty.

Speaker 6 (13:29):
Well.

Speaker 16 (13:29):
Flu cases are surging across this country. CDC data shows
more than four million illnesses this season, resulting in roughly
two thousand deaths, including two children. Rhode Island, Louisiana, and
New York are some of the states seeing very high
levels of flu activity. Joining me now is doctor Benjamin Abella,
Chair of Emergency Medicine at the Mount Sinai Health System

(13:52):
in New York City. Doctor Abella, thank you so much
for joining us, so just talk to us about this
concern and why we're seeing this surge. This has anything
to do with this strand being more powerful than in
years past.

Speaker 17 (14:04):
Well, I can certainly say that just over the last
week or two, we've seen a major surge in flu cases.
It mostly seems to be one strain of flu, known
as the H three strain. This is a strain that's
known to us. Certainly the flu vaccine helps. This surge, though,
has been much larger than we've seen in past years.

(14:25):
The current case count is larger than the same time
last year, and it's still climbing.

Speaker 3 (14:30):
I will say, my little one, Charlie, she was sick
for two weeks and first we thought it was COVID.
It wasn't COVID, and she had she had one day
where her fever was really bad, and then she had
like many fevers, but the cough. And this is if

(14:51):
you guys know anything, you guys hear me talk about Charlie.
Charlie and I are were identical. She's a she and
I we're just we just go and we just do
which non stop.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
And and she.

Speaker 3 (15:02):
Stopped stopped like three days, didn't do anything for day
and a half.

Speaker 2 (15:06):
She slept. It was for her crazy.

Speaker 3 (15:10):
Be careful out there, especially if you're going outdoors and
meeting folks, seeing folks.

Speaker 16 (15:15):
I always think of this time of year as washing
your hands. You got to do that. But what are
some of the other things people need to think about
in terms of protecting themselves?

Speaker 1 (15:23):
And is it too late to get the flu shot.

Speaker 17 (15:25):
Yes, so it's certainly important to wash hands, it's certainly
important to wear masks if you are sick or if
you're immune compromised, and probably in most cases in public.
And it's not too late for the flu shot. Flu
shots are effective and safe for people as young as
six months of age three, two.

Speaker 3 (15:43):
Three, five, twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show.
Directs your install right here on the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 7 (15:50):
We definitely recommend the flu shot.

Speaker 17 (15:51):
It is not too late, and it can greatly reduce
the risk of serious disease and even hospitalization if you
get the flu.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
By the way, that's not what I hear about vaccines.

Speaker 3 (16:00):
I see that they're getting ready to do some more
stuff when it comes to vaccines. Robert Kennedy's about ready
to do some more stuff.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
So we'll see what that looks like.

Speaker 3 (16:09):
I've just never been a vaccine de iro, but I
always say this, vaccines are different than the shot.

Speaker 2 (16:14):
H you agree, let.

Speaker 3 (16:14):
Me know what you think it was one of the
issues I think with the COVID vaccine. They called it
a vaccine. See, you can look at a vaccine, say polio, okay, measles,
those kind of things, rebella, whatever it is, those are vaccines.
Vaccines to me is you get a shot and that's it.
Maybe a booster later on, but you're not going to

(16:37):
catch it. Okay, you've put it into it, you've stopped it.
The problem was with COVID is you could still get it,
just like the flu. You can still get it now.
Having the shot mitigates a lot of the issues. But
when we think vaccine in our minds, we go to
it's a one and done and we can't get it anymore.

(16:59):
And that's not the way it works with the virus
like this, So be careful out there, though. Man, this
thing was nasty. It was It was Charlie's fine.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
I didn't feel good for a couple of days, but
that's about me.

Speaker 3 (17:14):
I'm sure when Charlie gets, you know, in her teens
and a little bit older, when she gets sick, it'll
be just like that, or she just goes and just
kind of looks at it.

Speaker 2 (17:21):
He goes, I need to go outside, and go for
a run and just.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
Keeps running through it. Three, two, three, five, twenty four
to twenty three at Chad Benson Shows Your Acts, your Insta, YouTube,
Facebook and more coming up. She put a sign up
on her bus she got fired and she feels sad.
We shall discuss that straight at Chad Benson.

Speaker 18 (17:39):
Show, Son Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (18:04):
English only will be spoken on this bus or else? Eh,
This lady got fired because on her bus right for kids,
she's about English only speaking English here.

Speaker 2 (18:16):
She's upset because she got.

Speaker 7 (18:17):
Canned English only.

Speaker 19 (18:19):
That's part of what the sign said at a Juniator
County bus driver's window.

Speaker 1 (18:24):
She was fired after that. Tonight, she's sharing her side
of the story. I do care. I care about a lot.

Speaker 20 (18:33):
Caring is exactly what Diane Crawford says led her to
serve the Junieta County School District and subcontract with rarer bus.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
I Oh no, what else to do?

Speaker 5 (18:43):
How do.

Speaker 21 (18:46):
I getting care and Medicaid now?

Speaker 1 (18:50):
And snap?

Speaker 21 (18:52):
I had to get on in a depressis because of this?

Speaker 2 (18:58):
Wait?

Speaker 3 (18:58):
What you had to get on anti dupres because you
get fired because you're a racist?

Speaker 19 (19:02):
Well?

Speaker 2 (19:02):
Hold on?

Speaker 3 (19:04):
Was she really or did she try to do something
that came across in the wrong way.

Speaker 2 (19:11):
You decide.

Speaker 22 (19:12):
Crawford says her contract with rare Bus came to a
halt very first after she put up this sign, which read,
out of respect to English only students, there will be
no speaking Spanish on this bus.

Speaker 21 (19:26):
I didn't mean to be racially insensitive or anything like that.

Speaker 20 (19:29):
Crawford claims she never got to explain that the sign
was put up to encourage safe and respectful behaviors and
was directed at a bilingual student who allegedly had a
history of riling up other students.

Speaker 21 (19:41):
I didn't know if he was bullying somebody telling them
to do something they should they shouldn't do. How do
you keep control of your bus if you have no control?

Speaker 2 (19:53):
Okay, okay.

Speaker 3 (19:53):
So she was doing it because a kid spoke in
a different language and riled up the other kids, and
she was if it was bullying, and so she thought
she was doing the right thing.

Speaker 22 (20:05):
The district and Roarer Buss writing in a joint statement
today that the investigation had finished quickly after Crawford admitted
to installing the note, writing quote, the relevant facts of
the scission were fully known and discussed among district and
rarer leadership, and that it was quote determines that the
conduct did not align with the standards and expectations for

(20:26):
student transportation providers.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
That's a lot.

Speaker 6 (20:29):
That's a lot.

Speaker 3 (20:31):
I'm going to say something here's probably going to be controversial,
but I'm going to get to it a second again.
I you make up your own mind. Did she do
something wrong? She puts it up? What's it say? Hey,
if you're speaking Spanish, speaking English, okay? And I've seen it.
Kind of a crudely written sign. Not crude is in
rude words or anything. I'm just putting that out there.

(20:55):
So and they said, ah, you can't do this is racists.

Speaker 23 (20:58):
Do you regret making the sign?

Speaker 21 (21:01):
Maybe I should have worded it different. Maybe I should
have said bullying has no bullying in any language. But
I didn't mean it to be anything but to correct him.
I dedicated everything I had to driving bus.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
It was for the kids. I love the kids, love
the kids, love me.

Speaker 3 (21:26):
She did it everything she could to drive and bus.
Chad you shouldn't make I'm just saying she said it
right there. She dedicated everything she could to driven bus.

Speaker 20 (21:35):
Now, Crawford also says she's asking for upwards of thirty
thousand dollars to help cover for her bus and the
bus route that she has and bought in twenty twenty four. Meanwhile,
the district and Rarer Bus say they stand by their
decision terminating her contracts, and they say they are committed

(21:56):
to making an inclusive and a respectful environment for kids
on those buses.

Speaker 3 (22:03):
Okay, I'm going to say this now now that we've
heard it all for her to play out. We've heard
her speak, right, right, we've heard her speak. She's dedicated
everything to driving bus. I don't think she was doing
it because she was racist. I think she was doing
it because the reality is she's not that sharp. Okay,

(22:25):
she's not the sharpestool in the shed. She thought she
was doing something based out of the potential for things
to get ugly in there and people speaking different languages
and they're to be fighting, and she thought, oh, you know,
so it sounds horrible. Yes, she's kind of slow, but
she's driving bus. I get she's driving bus. We all

(22:45):
get she's driving bus. We're glad she's driving bus.

Speaker 24 (22:49):
But she.

Speaker 3 (22:53):
Is limited in the scope of understanding of certain things
in the world. That we live in. And because of that,
she did something on bus as she drive bus that
apparently she shouldn't have done. Do I think she should
have been canned for it? No, At some point in time.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
Can we just go, hey, look what do you mean
by this? Okay? Okay, you can't do that, right, you
can't well, what do you mean you can't?

Speaker 3 (23:23):
You can't put that because it's just it has to
happen in a different way.

Speaker 2 (23:28):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (23:28):
So if you're worried about that, then we'll have the
teachers at school who are bilingual speak to the kids
and say, look, guys, when you're on the bus, if
you're if you're gonna be in serious trouble if you
are caught riling people up and doing it in a
second language, because you know this, we don't want any
of this. What do anything misconstrued?

Speaker 2 (23:48):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (23:48):
And then you go that's the way we do it.
So unfortunately, for now she can't drive bus. We move
from one. We moved from one awesome story about kids
to another one. This one may be the story of
the year every year you think you've got one. Somebody
at this school district thought this was a solid.

Speaker 25 (24:05):
Idea outrage in a northern New York State school district.

Speaker 26 (24:09):
I'm here to speak for my grandson who was put
in that box over what families claim is depicted in
these photos, a wooden box which appears to be in
the corner of.

Speaker 25 (24:20):
A classroom and used as punishment for students, including some
who have special needs. Chrissy Onintajasse Jacobs, a parent and
former Salmon River Central School District board member, posted the
photos to social media, given to her, she says, by
teachers who recently left the district.

Speaker 27 (24:36):
It broke my heart when I received those photos, I
myself became physically ill.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
It's a penalty box, but it's not even a good
penalty box. It's it's a box that has got a
matt in it, and it's built out of you know,
uh you know, pl I would and two by fours.
There's no windows. It's a penalty box. They're putting the

(25:06):

What was the mood that night?

Speaker 27 (25:44):
A lot of anger, a lot, a lot of sadness.

Speaker 3 (25:50):
Yeah, yeah, I can continue to go back to if
somebody had to build it, and somebody have it to
give it a thumbs up. Somebody had to go, hey,
you know what, this is a good idea. This is
going to go wrong at all. Nobody's ever going to
go home and tell their parents they were locked in
a box by the way. Apparently it's been there for
a while. Did no parent walk any what's that over there?
Oh that's where we stick your kids.

Speaker 25 (26:12):
It's the whole The district superintendent issuing a statement saying
at no time was the item depicted in the photographs
used by any student at Mohawks School. The district also
serves a nearby indigenous tribe tribal leaders calling for the
superintendent's removal and an independent investigation. Is the district's Board
of Education announcing an investigation while reassigning the superintendent to

(26:36):
home duties, penning the outcome, But some community members say
the damage is already done.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
From the box. Nobody thought this was a bad idea.

Speaker 3 (26:48):
Nobody thought, you know what the last lady with the
whole you know, speak English on this bus. That that

Speaker 3 (30:27):
It's the holiday season. Would be the holiday season without
the one the only Gary Busey talking about movies.

Speaker 28 (30:33):
Our first read holiday movies. Leave the Weapon re off
the Red Nose right there and is snowing at the
North Pole?

Speaker 11 (30:43):
Is shat?

Speaker 28 (30:44):
I can't get it out of the house.

Speaker 2 (30:45):
Hey, I'm gonna be a hundredercent honest with you.

Speaker 3 (30:48):
I do not believe that last one's real because I
tried to look it up and uh, I can't find anything.

Speaker 2 (30:54):
I think that's in Gary's mind.

Speaker 3 (30:56):
Remember that movie It's snowing in the in the North
Pole in Santa to get out? No, No, I don't
remember any of that. I think you made that up. Okay, Well,
there you go.

Speaker 2 (31:04):
Then, speaking of.

Speaker 29 (31:04):
Movies, Avatar Fire and Ash burned up screens and it's
opening weekend, earning eighty eight million domestically and three hundred
and forty five million worldwide. The animated biblical story David
came in second, earning twenty two million dollars in the US.
The Amanda Seafreed and Sidney Sweeney led thriller The Housemaid
followed with nineteen million. The latest SpongeBob movie, The Search

(31:25):
for Square Pants, was fourth, absorbing sixteen million dollars at
the box office. Those four debuts knocking Zootopia two out
of its number one spot and into fifth place with
fourteen million dollars this weekend.

Speaker 3 (31:37):
So pretty good, right, I mean, Avatar, I have a
full disclosure. I've seen a portion of one, maybe all
of it, but not in one sitting. I have never
seen two, and I won't see this. It looks like.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
I don't even know.

Speaker 3 (31:57):
It looks like but just ever been my thing. I've
never I don't care, like, I never got excited about it.
It's neat that it does the things that it does,
you know, as far as like he advances the movie
industry in so many ways. But that being said, it

(32:17):
just looks kind of And anyways, I'm more into real movies,
movies like this. I find some good movies for us.
So here's one.

Speaker 2 (32:24):
Now, this one's from nineteen fifty nine.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
This is actually a movie made in Mexico that they
dubbed an English as Santa Claus takes on the Devil.

Speaker 2 (32:32):
What.

Speaker 3 (32:32):
Yeah, Santa Claus takes on the devil because yeah, why
wouldn't you Santa take on the devil because he's bad.

Speaker 2 (32:44):
Now, Santa lives in space with a wizard. Where do
you find out who the wizard is?

Speaker 24 (32:49):
Oh, it's all happening, so like living a storybook adventure.
Beyond your wildness imagination. From the north pole of Fantasyland
comes a feature length bled with the chatting characters in
the whole wide world, headed by the white whiskeyed Fellow
who's the granddaddy of them all. Now, a magic motion

(33:13):
picture transports you to an over the rainbow land, past
the doors of Sata's towering castle and the strange, mysterious
all seeing Eye, into a fantastic crystal laboratory filled with
weird and wonderful secrets no one has ever seen before.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
So Santa fights the devil is so awesome again.

Speaker 3 (33:38):
This is a this is a movie that made Mexico
and it was actually quite a box office hit. So
and they dubbed it in English and it's awful. So
Santa's Santas in Mexico and he's gonna go help all
these kids. Now, there is one kid that you guys
need to understand this, okay, because the Devil's come. And remember,
Santa lives in space. He's got space friends, which is
awesome because he's got like this floating castles.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
Pretty it's pretty much the coolest thing ever.

Speaker 3 (34:02):
But it gets better because poor people suck in this,
right because the rich people they don't have to worry
about their kids getting in presents, but the poor people
are tempted by the devil.

Speaker 28 (34:16):
And candy.

Speaker 30 (34:18):
Here is a good little boy whose daddy is quite rich.

Speaker 1 (34:21):
This mother, on the other hand, is very.

Speaker 31 (34:22):
Poor, except and this is your daughter, whoa you'll.

Speaker 1 (34:27):
Make Lupita want to steal again.

Speaker 3 (34:31):
You make Lupita want to steal Againpiza, don't steal. It's
so spectacular, Oh my lord, it is. There's a lot
of bad holiday movies. We know that some of them
are just so spectacularly bad. But this one is so bad.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
It's good.

Speaker 3 (34:55):
Because for its day it was awful, but it wasn't
the worst.

Speaker 2 (35:03):
But it was pretty bad well because of Lupita, lupida.

Speaker 3 (35:08):
Lupida, don't do it, Lapida, don't steal. And it's got
this seeing eye that's that's like attached to this giant
thing that moves.

Speaker 2 (35:19):
It's just one eyeball that way you can see.

KFC is very important to the Japanese at Christmas time.
We're going to talk about that more on some apps
scene stuff, but maybe not. Also, we talked about the
sport and the kids and the travel parents.

Speaker 2 (36:02):
And the cost. Did you know there was a hearing

Speaker 7 (36:04):

If you're missing the show, grab that podcast Hour number
two straight ahead, Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 15 (36:23):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (36:52):
We already have a battle over sixty Minutes.

Speaker 3 (36:55):
Bari Weiss, who's taken over CBS News, who is very
friendly Trump, as is Ellison and the family and everybody
who now owns all of the CBS paramount stuff.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
There's no doubt there's issues over there.

Speaker 3 (37:09):
But last night they were supposed to air something, and
right before they were supposed to air it, a few
hours before, they yanked the segment and instead put on
some sort of segment about I don't know, the classic
pianist and musicians from Nottingham, England, which whatever.

Speaker 19 (37:29):
We have some big news about possible media censorship. Just
hours before sixty Minutes was set to air a documentary
an episode describing the quote torturous conditions individuals migrants face
inside the Sea Caught terrorism prison facility in El Salvador.
CBS has now announced that there have been programming changes
and that it's going to air not tonight but at

(37:52):
a future date that's unknown, and there's no explanation for
why it just took down this critical documentary. The American
people really need to know what's happening inside Seacott. That's
a story that gripped the nation for a long time
early on in the Trump administration, and well it's kind
of fallen off the radar recently. Sixty Minutes was supposed

(38:12):
to profile what's happening there. CBS is now saying well,
maybe not now, not giving an explanation as to why.
And it reeks of media censorship from this administration, it
really does.

Speaker 3 (38:26):
I have a feeling that there's going to be several
people that are bowing out of sixty minutes, And already
with CBS News they're having issues.

Speaker 2 (38:34):
And so you know, you saw the was it last weekend?

Speaker 3 (38:40):
Was the CBS News special da Barie Weiss interviewing Erica
Kirk and then that those numbers sucked by the way
they couldn't find anybody to fill the time slots as
far as advertisers, and then they well, we're going to

(39:00):
do more of these, and then you have this.

Speaker 2 (39:03):
So do I think that we should have fair news? Yes?
Do I think we should.

Speaker 3 (39:07):
Learn everything we can about subject yest. Do I think
sixty Minutes, among other other groups, are left leaning and
have put a lot of stuff out there that has
been ridiculous and turned out to.

Speaker 2 (39:20):
Not be true.

Speaker 3 (39:21):
Yeah, yeah, do I also think there is a new
twist now though, to absolutely make Trump happy. You'd be
fooling yourself if you didn't think that was true. You'd
be lying to yourself if you didn't think they're doing
everything they can. Plus you got to remember they're in

(39:41):
a battle right now to try and buy Warner Brothers
after Netflix stood up and said now we're going to
do it, and they offered one hundred and eight billion dollars.
But remember, all of this has to go through Trump's
Justice Department and all of their other groups that'll be
investigating this to make sure there's not a monopoly, there's

(40:01):
not this, that and the other. And because they want
to and Larry Ellison's son runs everything down for Paramrount,
they want to combine CNN with CBS when it comes
under one house.

Speaker 2 (40:17):
That's the goal. So it's very interesting, super interesting.

Speaker 3 (40:23):
It makes me laugh because how can you not like,
you know, when you sit here and talk about what's
going on with Epstein and stuff. How can you not
say think there's not something here. There's absolutely something here.
And I was worried about this from the beginning, that
we're going to send people off and horrible things are
going to happen to them. Okay, they came to our

(40:43):
country illegally, fine, they need to go back, Fine, But
we're sending them to places that they're not from, that
they've committed no crime in, and then they're going to
a prison. That to me, yeah, we should all have
a little bit of an issue with that. We should
shopping this weekend. I did some did you you know
a lot of people are doing not shopping like that.

Speaker 30 (41:05):
A poll from survey Monkey finds that one in five
Americans will hold off on holiday shopping until the last minute.
The National Retail Federation reports of the average spend at
eight hundred and ninety dollars per person, a slight decline
from last year, but factor in inflation, the NRF anticipates
the first trillion dollar holiday shopping season in history.

Speaker 2 (41:25):
Yeah, that's happening, but we're not spent.

Speaker 3 (41:29):
We're spending a little less, getting a little less, and
at the end of the day it'll end up being more.
But what do we always talking about. You have to
go look at the units sold. So how many units
are sold? So if last year ten units were sold, right,
I'm just doing easy math here, so em easymath day.

(41:50):
So ten units are sold and that was sold for
a million dollars and this year we sold eight and
a half units and it's a little bit over a
million dollars. While we more money was spent, people got less.
If that makes sense.

Speaker 30 (42:07):
Well, it's true that some retailers are dropping their prices
in order to clear out inventory before the end of
the year. Making sure that your gift gets there on time.
Could negate that benefit? Expedited delivery can easily double the
price of that perfect Christmas gift.

Speaker 3 (42:23):
Yeah, that's true. I got a lot of stuff coming,
so making sure it gets here. And you think it's
you know what pisses me office? But you know Amazon.
I love Amazon, So this is about Amazon. But you're like,
you'll order something, it'll say it's going to be there
in two days, and then you get a thing the
next day, going ah, it's not gonna be there until

(42:43):
January fifth.

Speaker 2 (42:44):
It's like, how did how did you get there?

Speaker 3 (42:47):
How did you how did you get from there from
here to the like, that's a long there.

Speaker 2 (42:53):
How'd you do that? I don't know, but they did,
but they did.

Speaker 3 (42:58):
Other news obviously got to talk about Epstein this morning.

Speaker 32 (43:01):
Growing backlash aimed at the Department of Justice over their
release of the Epstein files.

Speaker 33 (43:07):
The problem is this was a slap in the face
of survivors.

Speaker 32 (43:10):
Members of Congress, and survivor groups raising concerns over the
uneven disclosure, with thousands of documents still not released, pages
and pages of reactions, and photos and documents posted and
then taken down, including this one that included snapshots of
the president, which the DOJ later reposted. Now, the leading

(43:31):
sponsors of the law that forced the DOJ to release
the files are considering holding the Department in contempt of
Congress or even impeaching Attorney General Pambondi.

Speaker 34 (43:41):
They're flouting the spirit and the letter of the law.
It's very troubling the posture that they've taken. And I
won't be satisfied until the survivors are satisfied.

Speaker 3 (43:52):
And look, this is a giant cluster hump. They have
screwed this up from the beginning. And they could talk
about all the over trying this we're trying to ask
this has not gone well. They I remind everybody these
are self inflicted wounds.

Speaker 2 (44:08):
When it comes to the politics.

Speaker 3 (44:10):
You push things for years, you turn things into a
situation where it became a.

Speaker 2 (44:17):
Massive issue with a younger group of people.

Speaker 3 (44:24):
Okay, and in doing so, in your conspiracy world, as
everybody would call it, you promise to get them out
and to push these things out and to show the
world all of this stuff. And now and push comes
to shove because it might embarrass the president, it might
embarrass the Republicans. It's definitely going to embarrass a lot
of powerful people who are friends with both Republicans and Democrats.

Speaker 2 (44:48):
You decided now we're not going to do it.

Speaker 3 (44:51):
Self inflicted people wonder why there's issues, and then you're
the president.

Speaker 2 (44:55):
It's a hux.

Speaker 32 (44:56):
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche telling Kristen Welker, the is
not working to shield anyone, including President Donald Trump.

Speaker 35 (45:04):
If President Trump is mentioned, if there's photographs that we
have of President Trump or anybody else, they of course
will be released.

Speaker 32 (45:11):
The DOJ responding to the criticism by posting a lengthy
fact sheet describing a quote arduous process and arguing the
redactions and slow release are all part of their effort
to protect the victims.

Speaker 35 (45:24):
Hundreds of lawyers looking at every single document and making
sure that victims' names and any of the information from
victims is protected and redacted.

Speaker 2 (45:34):
Victims.

Speaker 3 (45:36):
Yeah, the victims want it out, the victims or they
don't want any naked pictures or videos out, but they
want it out. They want to know what's going on.
You're protecting, you're protecting. Who is it Trump?

Speaker 2 (45:51):
Again? I don't think so?

Speaker 12 (45:53):
Well?

Speaker 3 (45:53):
What about Clinton again? By the way, the Democrats don't
care about Clinton. There's this kind of thing that the
right seems to think that they care about. They don't
care about Clinton. They don't right, Clinton's are a pain
in the ass. They need to move on from this
is the way they look at this. They don't care
about Clinton. We're not going to know the truth. This

(46:14):
was always going to be hidden. And when everybody talks
about the swamp, just know this same group of people
that wanted to fight the swamp moved right onto the
swamp and got comfortable.

Speaker 32 (46:23):
Sky Roberts's sister, Virginia Roberts Duffrey, was among the first
survivors of Jeffrey Epstein to come forward and tell her story.

Speaker 1 (46:31):
I think we still have a big fight ahead of us.

Speaker 32 (46:34):
Duffrey took her own life in April, her brother telling
Hellie Jackson. Survivors are expecting a lot more from the DOJ.

Speaker 3 (46:41):
I think a lot of survivors are feeling a bit
betrayed right now too.

Speaker 11 (46:43):
It's now.

Speaker 36 (46:44):
The Department of Justice says there are two hundred lawyers
working around the clock to finish the work. The members
of Congress tracking the release belief at this point the
government is only released about ten percent of the material
that they have on Epstein.

Speaker 3 (46:59):
Yeah, how about those apples. Remember, you did this to yourself,
self inflicted. These are all self inflicted things that you
put out there. These are all self inflicted things that
you promised everybody you were going to handle, and then
you didn't.

Speaker 2 (47:18):
You didn't.

Speaker 3 (47:20):
So at the end of the day, the mirror. You
look at the mirror, and what do you see, see yourselves?
And you go, you did this to yourself. You did
this to yourself. You dropped the ball, you failed, whatever
it is. I've never thought Trump was on it. As
far as anything bad, I think the big issue would

(47:42):
be and I think it's a very fair issue to
talk about.

Speaker 2 (47:46):
Is if Trump was friends with him after.

Speaker 7 (47:54):
He was.

Speaker 3 (47:57):
Already convicted, If he was already convicted and everybody knew
about it and they still were friends with them, then yes,
I think there'd be some serious issues there. We'll see, though,
Like I said, I don't think we're gonna get anything
out of it. The only way this happens is if people,
congress people and senators actually start to name names and

(48:18):
put stuff out there that they've seen.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
But I don't know if that's gonna happen.

Speaker 3 (48:21):
We'll see, we shall see, we shall It's gotta be interesting.
It's gonna be interesting, no doubt about that. Relief Factor
love the relief. It's a factor about that that I love.
Let me tell you some about relief factor. Natural take
it every single day so it's non addictive. It is incredible.
My wife takes it every day. I take it every day.

really factor is thousands and thousands and thousands of people

Speaker 37 (50:06):
I live in Japan, and one of the craziest things
I learned here is that a traditional Christmas dinner in
Japan is KFC Kentucky Fried Chicken.

Speaker 1 (50:13):
There's not a joke.

Speaker 23 (50:14):
That is completely serious.

Speaker 37 (50:15):
If you do not order your KFC Christmas dinner weeks
in advance, you might not get it. It started in
the nineteen seventies when KFC in Japan ran a marketing
campaign that said that Americans and Westerners ate KFC for
Christmas dinner, and it just stuck. Japan bought into it
and has been a tradition ever since. So let's go
free order my.

Speaker 1 (50:32):
KFC Christmas dinner.

Speaker 37 (50:33):
Oddly enough, Japan is very affortable, but KFC is very expensive.
Here fingers crossed, we get lucky at this location, winter
winter KFC dinner. The adrenaline I have right now, I
am so excited. It was a successful Just barely seventy
percent of the time slots for Christmas Day and Christmas
Eve were sold out. Cost five five hundred yan, which
is about thirty five American dollars and it's kind of
crazy to say I spent thirty five dollars on KFC.

Speaker 1 (50:55):
But here we are, here.

Speaker 2 (50:57):
You are, so, yes, it is big. So what do
you get?

Speaker 3 (51:00):
So there's a few different things, but a specialty dinner
is provided just for Christmas, complete with Christmas buckets in
the whole nine yards most of it. You're gonna get
a original recipe, fried chicken, festive sides, shrimp, creton, potato salad,
or lasagna. Again, it's different. You're gonna get a Christmas cake. Okay, okay.

(51:26):
Now they do have some of the other stuff. They
have creamy mushroom dishes and you know, some other things.

Speaker 2 (51:32):
But you can get the thing that we think as well.
It's KFC. It's KFC.

Speaker 3 (51:40):
Yeah, but it's different because it's KFC and it's awesome.
And they made it so because they did all these
commercials and they didn't have a lot of Christmas traditions
in Japan like we do, so they pitched it like
this is what America does.

Speaker 2 (51:54):
And lo and behold, here we are.

Speaker 3 (51:56):
You can get a festive sponge cake, rawberry's and cream
and that is very key and you must order in advance.

Speaker 2 (52:04):
She's not playing.

Speaker 3 (52:06):
You absolutely have to order in advance weeks, usually in
advance three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four, twenty
three at Shed Benson's show. Is your ex, your Insta,
your YouTube, your Facebook and more right here on the
Chad Benson Show. On average, three and a half million

(52:31):
Japanese families order dinner from KFC during Christmas.

Speaker 2 (52:37):
That is huge, lads, huge, I love KFC.

Speaker 3 (52:42):
There's a lot of things you probably don't even know
about KFC, the Colonel himself. Here's some stuff you didn't
know about the Colonel. He shot a man. Bet you
didn't know that shot a man. He owed a gas station.
I think it was a chevron. The guy cross street
on a shell. They got into a fight which the
the guy across the street ended up killing one of

(53:03):
his the colonel's workers.

Speaker 2 (53:07):
Colonel picked up a.

Speaker 3 (53:07):
Gun and shot the guy who shot his guy in
the shoulder. That guy, by the way, was put away
from murder. He was a lawyer, but that didn't last
long because apparently he fought with his clients, and not
just fought, he'd beat him up in the courtroom.

Speaker 2 (53:21):
He also had the foul mouth, like you couldn't believe.

Speaker 3 (53:25):
And I know all this stuff because when I was
a kid, he was like my hero because he was
just so awesome. I just found him fascinating. He used
to be He worked in the I mean he did everything.
He delivered babies, It worked in the on the railroads.
He was a union buster. He's first KFC, by the way,
wasn't even in Kentucky, was in Utah.

Speaker 2 (53:47):
Started late in life. His success.

Speaker 3 (53:50):
And the thing that made me laugh most about the
Colonel was how bad his mouth was. He cursed up
a storm, to the point where they didn't even know
what to do with him on commercials because getting through
a take was extremely hard and they'd start, he'd start cursing.
They'd have to.

Speaker 2 (54:08):
It was just he was.

Speaker 3 (54:10):
He was an interesting character, an American classic, to say
the least. If you're missing the show, shame on you.
Grab the podcast. This is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 31 (54:19):
Then Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (54:39):
The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (54:41):
Normally this time of year, my son doesn't really have
a chance to come out and hang out like he
used to. Why is that because he plays hockey or
golf or he's doing something. Because that's the travel time
of the year for hockey. He's one of those things
in particular, and really now every sport where holidays are

(55:03):
just bigger tournaments. He even said to me the other Hey, Dad,
can we watch the World Junior Championship which is played
over the Christmas holidays? You know, either in Canada here
or Europe.

Speaker 2 (55:14):
Usually. The cost of sports and kids. We talked about it.

Speaker 3 (55:21):
Two weeks ago, how ridiculous was travel parents, the amount
of money they're spending, and they actually had hearing about it,
Capitol Hill hearing about it, a hearing.

Speaker 38 (55:31):
What lawmakers focusing on the cost of youth sports. Here
are just some of the growing issues impacting children and
their parents, especially if you're like some of the seventy
percent of parents living paycheck to paycheck on average, If
you want your kid to play sports, not go pro,
it's about one thousand dollars. That's up almost fifty percent
since the pandemic, thirty to four billion dollars a year.

(55:53):
This has become an industry to play in.

Speaker 7 (55:55):
Your league, to put your son or daughter in.

Speaker 38 (55:58):
The best situation possible for them to be successful.

Speaker 7 (56:01):
What parent doesn't want that?

Speaker 38 (56:02):
Kids from low income houses are twenty four percent homes,
twenty four percent play for less than the high income
houses than their peers. So if you're a kid trying
to make their way in sports, you have less of
a chance to be successful, and it's harder for your
parent perhaps to write that check oftentimes from a low
income areas where it's hard to get fields.

Speaker 2 (56:23):
So start breaking it down there.

Speaker 3 (56:25):
Ran kill me about this, and again I want to
continue to tell you guys, this is about kids sports
that they had and actual hearing on because of the cost,
the expense of kids sports, and it's not just you know,
the sports, it's the time for the parents, it's all
of the things.

Speaker 38 (56:42):
And several percent of kids drop out of organized sports
by the time they get to ninth grade.

Speaker 7 (56:46):
Think about that.

Speaker 38 (56:47):
So what, indeed is the point Our next guest highlighted
these issues yesterday during how Subcommittee. Let's bring in Tom Ferry,
Executive director of the Aspen Institute Sports Programs, Sports and
Society Programs. Tom, I love that topic. Thrilled you guys
for tackling it. What came out of it.

Speaker 33 (57:04):
I mean, honestly, I thought there was a great agreement
about the value of sports and building healthy kids. In
terms of military readiness, strong cohesive communities, bringing down health
care costs. We all understand the value proposition that kids
who play sports are more likely to do better in life.

Speaker 2 (57:21):
Right, Yes, we understand that.

Speaker 3 (57:24):
You go look and you see a lot of big entrepreneurs,
a lot of big companies. If you have played sports
at a somewhat high level, the chance of you getting
hired are far greater. Why because of teamwork.

Speaker 2 (57:37):
You understand that.

Speaker 3 (57:38):
But as I'm listening to this, I'm watching this over
the last several years, because I've seen this thing explode.
Like I said, my little brother in particular, is making
bank like you cannot believe, coaching youth sports, and it's
no longer fun for him at times. You know, it's
a business, and I don't want to take that away

(57:59):
from the people who work in the business. But at
the same time, people are selling dreams. You kids got
to do this, Your kids got to do that. We
all played sports when we were younger, and we've played
just about every sport. But now everything is about you're
a specialist, you're a specialist. Nope, You've got to focus here.
This is where he is. You're going to have to
leave school, study at home because you've got to train
several hours a days.

Speaker 2 (58:21):
This is where this goes.

Speaker 33 (58:22):
There's a lot of kumbaya also around the idea that
a lot of pressure on families, the cost pressures, but
also the time pressures.

Speaker 28 (58:29):
Brian.

Speaker 33 (58:29):
Our research shows that the average family spends three hours
and twenty minutes a day on their kids.

Speaker 11 (58:35):
Use sports man.

Speaker 33 (58:36):
If you got like three or four or five kids,
that's a hard thing to do. So people are feeling
it from the kids are seven and eight years old
and they're like, this feels like too much.

Speaker 2 (58:48):
Because it is. It's too damn much.

Speaker 3 (58:52):
Now, when they get to a certain age and they
want to focus on it, that's a different story, and
some of these kids do. But a lot of kids
know the mom and dad are living their life through
them and hopes that they're going to spend the same
amount of money on them, getting a full ride somewhere,
having them trained and specializing in things, which I find

(59:16):
to be also fascinating.

Speaker 38 (59:17):
So it's not that every parent wants their kid to
go pro, and that's some of them, but they just
want their kids to be successful. And there's winners and
losers in every big game, in little game, and you know,
how they feel, so you want to try to cushion
that feeling or push them forward to experience that. So
a lot of times parents' hearts are in the right place.

Speaker 7 (59:35):
Why did it become expensive.

Speaker 33 (59:36):
It's become expensive because when you and I were growing up,
we had what we call in town recreation leagues, right
classmates playing with classmates at a local field one season.
We go low economic barriers to entry, low time barriers
to entry.

Speaker 2 (59:53):
Low time. That's important because.

Speaker 3 (59:59):
The time thing is a fac at a time when
both parents are working at a time when you sometimes,
especially this time of year, parents are working double they're
they're working over time, but do everything to make ends meet,
and you're working, actually put your kid in there. You
have a limited amount of time with yourself, your life,
your business as well as your families to get things done.

(01:00:21):
It's not just the cost of the doing the business.
Sometimes it's the cost of life in your world.

Speaker 33 (01:00:31):
Well, what's happened is we've created these travel teams, which
used to only exist in high school. They push down
to middle school and now they go all the way
down to second grade. And once we create these trial
based travel teams which are off in private, the cost
goes from a couple hundred dollars a year to several
thousand dollars a year, and it starts structurally pushing aside
a lot of kids who can't afford it, or they're

(01:00:52):
just late bloomers or whatever. And so this is what's happened.
We've allowed the travel team environment to sort of take over.

Speaker 2 (01:00:59):
It's not just team which is expensive. It is the
And by the way, even at the low end for.

Speaker 3 (01:01:05):
Some of these travel teams or some of these things,
you're you're spending it so much money, so much money,
and then you start thinking about the cost of well,
so and so needs this, and such and such needs this,
and she needs this, and her coach wants to have
her out here for extra lessons, and all of a
sudden you look up and you're you're now realizing your

(01:01:27):
kid is an industry unto themselves, and not in that
kind of way that they're that they're you're having to
pay ungodly amounts of money for your child to play.
I mean, they they had a full on hearing about
the cost of it.

Speaker 2 (01:01:46):
And how it's going.

Speaker 3 (01:01:46):
And by the way, like I said, my little brother,
do I understand you know he's even said, look, being
coach at times now because we're battling for the best players. Why,
because the better players you have, obviously the better you're.

Speaker 2 (01:01:59):
T team's going to do. It's not about teaching at
this point in time.

Speaker 3 (01:02:02):
Sometimes it's about winning those games because that way other
better players will want to come play on your team.
So that it's just it is frustrating and fascinating. It's
one of the reasons I left. I didn't want to
coach when I was younger.

Speaker 38 (01:02:16):
So for example, I'm going to go to Pennsylvania and
play in a tournament and going to.

Speaker 7 (01:02:20):
Pay for a hotel.

Speaker 38 (01:02:21):
I have to take a day from work to go
over there, and then I'm paying for that tournament, and then.

Speaker 7 (01:02:25):
You watch your kid play for three days.

Speaker 38 (01:02:27):
You got to go to three meals, and then you
got to drive back, and that is indeed your weekend.
Where maybe that tournament could be done just around the block,
But no one pays hotels, No one pays the tournament
fees if the kids are playing for free.

Speaker 7 (01:02:39):
So do you think parents.

Speaker 38 (01:02:40):
Or organizers are cashing in, like everywhere in society, they
see kids as commodities.

Speaker 6 (01:02:45):
Yeah, they do.

Speaker 33 (01:02:46):
I mean, look, forty billion dollars a year, according to
our research, is flowing through youth sports. And that's just
a parent spend. That's not the public spend. That's not
private equity, just parents.

Speaker 7 (01:02:56):
It's rue. Right, that's crazy.

Speaker 33 (01:02:57):
Just twice as much money is flowing through the NFL. Well, yeah,
it's become a commercialized environment.

Speaker 3 (01:03:03):
Yeah, yeah, your parents are are are are the ATM machines.
You're the product and your kids dreams they're selling. You're
paying them for them and sometimes hit your dreams. And
like I've said, the expense of these things is through

(01:03:23):
the roof. I mean, I'm fascinated because we used to
play all kinds of sports. You know, we had a
baseball season, we had a basketball season, we had a
football season, we had a soccer season. Now it became
a situation where I love soccer. I didn't like the
other sports and I only wanted to play soccer, so

(01:03:45):
I focused on soccer. That was fine, that was great.
But you know, we had a kid growing up named
Joe Maximore. He played on the ninety four World Cup team.
I think he played on the ninety eight World Cup
team too. He was the first person I think I
ever heard of where his Dad had a lot of money.

(01:04:06):
He was able to have a professional coach. I think
at times lived with him, so I mean his advantages
were huge. But he had made the decision because he
loved the game. So many of these kids, they show
some sort of aptitude to the game and mom and
Dad throw him into it. My son loves the sport.
He's way better golf, like a freak at golf. But

(01:04:30):
he loves the team aspect of sports. He loves his buddies.
And that's the one thing I tell him that you
get out of this more than anything else, is friendships.
But at what costs? Because I told him this year, dude, look,
if you're getting better, that's one thing. But you can
go play rec league and flounder around with some guys
if that's what you want to do. You know, spending ten, fifteen,
twenty grand a year for you to travel around, for

(01:04:52):
you to do all these kind of things and to
not get any better, I'd rather spend twenty grand on
you at playing golf. Ten grand something that he just
love it. And I'm for fortunate this year because his
high school team, which by the way, costs a crap
ton of money, they put him on the team for

(01:05:12):
free because they were short, and he wasn't going to
play golf this year, or he wasn't gonna play hockey
this year. He made a promise. Hey, you know, dad,
I just want my bike. I came up with my
bike friends. I'm really into you know, bike life. Where
was a joke about it, And so we got him
an awesome bike for his birthday, you know, one of
those super spendy ones, and you know, because he likes
to do you know, his mechanical stuff on it and

(01:05:33):
doing the wheelies and showing off and he enjoyed it.

Speaker 2 (01:05:35):
But they asked him to.

Speaker 3 (01:05:36):
Play this year. Otherwise he would have played hockey this year.
And it's just because and and the golf thing if
if that's what he likes to do. But he ended
up going back, and he's super excited because he loves
the camaraderie. He loves being around a bunch of other
friends that are all pulling, you know, for the same
thing they are. But it's you build memories. I get that,

(01:05:58):
But again, at what cost a little bit of hope?

Speaker 38 (01:06:00):
Tell me a couple of things that you guys, came
out of this that you could do right away.

Speaker 6 (01:06:04):
Bring back recreation leagues, have parking.

Speaker 33 (01:06:06):
Rex say, this is really important that we have low
cost sports up through at least at least six or
seventh or maybe eighth grade and prioritize the field space.

Speaker 6 (01:06:16):
This can be done.

Speaker 33 (01:06:17):
We don't need the federal government to come in and
solve the problem here. This could be done on a
community by community basis, by a community saying, look, we
want sports to be accessible and a great experience for
all kids, and we're going to use our fields in
our gym space to make sure that those local leagues
come back right.

Speaker 7 (01:06:35):
Have fun again supervised. Don't have to coach everything.

Speaker 2 (01:06:39):
Absolutely.

Speaker 3 (01:06:40):
The problem with that is when some kids get good,
they want to play with better players. And that's when
you look at it. But some of these kids are
so young and they're specializing in things you just like, man,
but chat it works, it doesn't work. Actually, most top
achieving adults were an elite specialists in childhood, according to
a new study, and I find this to be fascinating.

(01:07:01):
So this was a study that came out on the
Wall Street Journal on Friday that most kids who star
in sports, music, things of that nature were averages. Kids
got a little bit better kind of bloomed a little
bit later, and they became elite at a later age.
A vast Yes, there are some tiger Woods out there,
but a vast majority of these kids that become superstars

(01:07:26):
do it late.

Speaker 2 (01:07:27):
Go look at the NFL.

Speaker 3 (01:07:28):
The NFL is littered with with guys who are late bloomers,
who didn't get drafted, who who even when they were
drafted very late. Tom Brady, right, Rock Purty, mister irrelevant,
drafted late. Yes, you do have some people that are phenoms,

(01:07:49):
but for the most it wasn't that. And that includes music.

Speaker 2 (01:07:56):
Let me know what you think.

Speaker 3 (01:07:56):
Three two, three, five, twenty four to twenty three. Chad

Speaker 2 (01:09:30):
It is that time of the week.

Speaker 3 (01:09:32):
Only twice this week are we gonna do this, so
you're gonna have to keep up with your words, keep
studying you through the Christmas break.

Speaker 2 (01:09:37):
You know what time it is. We teach you the
vernacular that the youth use.

Speaker 6 (01:09:42):
Now it's time for the urban word of the day.

Speaker 39 (01:09:45):
The young have a vocabulary all their own, and we
break it down for you.

Speaker 6 (01:09:50):
It's called the urban word of the day.

Speaker 3 (01:09:54):
All right, your urban worth the day. We do a
couple of Christmas ones over the next couple days. Now,
this is very popular outside of America, but it's starting to.

Speaker 2 (01:10:01):
Become popular here. Crimbo, crimbo or crimble.

Speaker 3 (01:10:06):
It's a popular British slang and it means Christmas to them. Why,
I have no idea why are they using it?

Speaker 2 (01:10:16):
Again, no idea.

Speaker 3 (01:10:19):
Why they're using it. But the youth now picked it up.

Speaker 2 (01:10:22):
It's underneath right.

Speaker 3 (01:10:24):
Australia, get ay of there, England, Scotland, Ireland.

Speaker 2 (01:10:29):
Crimbo crimbo is your urban word of the day.

Speaker 6 (01:10:36):
That was the urban word of the day now, you.

Speaker 3 (01:10:39):
Know, speaking of knowing, you ever have one of these
people run up to you right when you put something,
You put x moss.

Speaker 17 (01:10:49):
It's Christmas, not Xmas.

Speaker 37 (01:10:51):
How would you feel if your name got taken out
of your birthday.

Speaker 6 (01:10:53):
It's very offensive and I always laugh at them.

Speaker 2 (01:10:57):
I'll say, do you even understand what the X is?
Right to be?

Speaker 3 (01:11:00):
X P M as X stood for Chai. That's the
first letter Chai and then p r h O so
essentially meant christo christ.

Speaker 2 (01:11:13):
Oh is that what it meant?

Speaker 3 (01:11:15):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:11:15):
Not to these people. These people because they're they're do gooders.
You know who you are out there.

Speaker 3 (01:11:21):
We don't celebrate Christmas because it's a pagan holiday.

Speaker 2 (01:11:27):
I'm like, oh, settle down, settled down.

Speaker 3 (01:11:33):
They used all kinds of names, by the way, for
Christ back in the day, all kinds of Namecios, Christos,
theow Yos, solder, savior, son, God.

Speaker 2 (01:11:46):
They used all kinds of names back in the day.
But X is not a.

Speaker 3 (01:11:52):
I think people are gonna get to heaven one day.
And Jesus like, why are you all like you're all
upset about the X because it off It didn't offend me.
You understand, we didn't speak your language, so it's different.
I mean I spoke, but nobody else did, right, because
I know all three two, three, five, twenty four to

(01:12:12):
twenty three at jad Benson shows your extra insta YouTube

I don't know, guys wanted to rhyme there.

Speaker 13 (01:13:43):
The severe weather impacting travel for holiday plans. With just
three days until Christmas, it's stressful tsa checkpoints and packed
lines snaking through terminals. Officials expect nearly fifty three million
passengers between now and early January, close to three million.

Speaker 3 (01:14:00):
Day cool guacamole with the weather, with all the chaos
and the craziness.

Speaker 2 (01:14:06):
Don't it's cold, is what I'm telling you, boys. It's cold.
What I'm telling you girls, It's just cold.

Speaker 3 (01:14:12):
Out there, toy Them's.

Speaker 40 (01:14:13):
More than one hundred and twenty two million Americans set
to travel more than fifty miles from home this year.
That is going to be a record, not just in
these days but also in the days after Christmas. We're
gonna be looking at these busy days for a while now.

Speaker 7 (01:14:25):
And just as a reminder, when you're.

Speaker 40 (01:14:27):
Getting on the roads, obviously you get to the airports early.
When you're getting on the roads, the worst time to
drive between one pm and seven pm.

Speaker 3 (01:14:34):
State when are you going to drive?

Speaker 24 (01:14:36):
Chad?

Speaker 2 (01:14:36):
Well, I'm not because I'm not silly. I don't do that.

Speaker 3 (01:14:38):
It's not what I want. So I want to be
a part of So I will not be driving. I
will be floundering in my fifth flargain in filth, watching television,
hanging out with the kids. We got stuff to do.
But I just I just you guys know you listen.
I just did traveling, going to see the family. It
seems great, but the stress level is just so much

(01:15:03):
and with the limited amount of time that I take off.
I just told my wife I don't want to be
super stressed. And the kids are coming here, which is good,
but still the stress, the stress, it's through the roofs. Kids,
the stress just through the roofs. I don't want that stress.
Many people don't. One of the things that's going to
happen is know this that the weather is going to
play a huge role, as it always does, and a

(01:15:25):
lot of times it's not about whether or not you're
there on time and everything's good. The reality is it
only takes one or two weather delays for your plane
to not take off on time, or for there not
to be a crew coming in because they're stuck somewhere,
and then the domino effect happens. What do we always say,

(01:15:47):
we do it every single year, We did every single
big holiday. The reason you're late, the reason that stuff
gets canceled, as frustrating it is, is not the person
at the desk fault. Okay, not so getting mad at them.
Is it going to help you being stuffing traffic next
to a person. We you guys are arguing about something.

(01:16:10):
They also don't want to be in traffic. Just little
reminders that we like to bring to you right here.
So Friday we pivot from one thing to the next.
Trump can't wait for the holidays to begin. Was supposed
to be the big day. Epstein the list, the list?

Speaker 2 (01:16:28):
It's out?

Speaker 7 (01:16:29):
Is it this morning?

Speaker 32 (01:16:31):
Growing backlash aimed at the Department of Justice over their
release of the Epstein files.

Speaker 33 (01:16:36):
The problem is this was a slap in the face
of survivors.

Speaker 32 (01:16:39):
Members of Congress, and survivor groups raising concerns over the
uneven disclosure, with thousands of documents still not released, pages
and pages of redactions, and photos and documents posted and
then taken down, including this one that included snapshots of
the President.

Speaker 2 (01:16:57):
Which the DOJ later reposted.

Speaker 32 (01:16:59):
Now, the leading sponsors of the law that force the
DOJ to release the files are considering holding the Department
in contempt of Congress or even impeaching Attorney General Pambondi.

Speaker 34 (01:17:10):
They're flouting the spirit and the letter of the law.
It's very troubling the posture that they've taken. And I
won't be satisfied. Until the survivors are satisfied.

Speaker 2 (01:17:21):
They should be frustrated. We should all be frustrated.

Speaker 3 (01:17:23):
We're not going to get the things we want and
that we were told we were going to get. Is
what it is.

Speaker 2 (01:17:29):
You can call it a cover up and call I mean,
we know what it is.

Speaker 3 (01:17:33):
There's no reason to pretending, Oh, we don't really need
to talk about it, because now big Dan, No, it's
it's it's frustrating as hell. You ended up being the
same thing you said you weren't going to be. That
frustrates a lot of people. And now the question is
how are they going to try to get everything else released?
Because whatever we get, what did I say? I tweeted
out even on Friday, here's what you're going to get.

(01:17:56):
You're going to get anything that has any anything to
do with any Democrat, especially Clinton, that'll be out there.
Anything to do with Trump or anybody else will not
be out there. Anything that has anything to do with
that his campaign, people that he's friends with, people that

(01:18:18):
he knows. You're not going to get any of that.

Speaker 32 (01:18:21):
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche telling Kristen Welker the DOJ
is not working to shield anyone, including President Donald Trump.

Speaker 35 (01:18:29):
If President Trump is mentioned, if there's photographs that we
have of President Trump or anybody else, they of course
will be released.

Speaker 32 (01:18:36):
The DOJ responding to the criticism by posting a lengthy
fact sheet describing a quote arduous process and arguing the
redactions and slow release are all part of their effort
to protect the victims.

Speaker 35 (01:18:49):
Hundreds of lawyers looking at every single document and making
sure that victims' names and any of the information from
victims is protected and redacted.

Speaker 2 (01:19:00):
They screwed the pooch.

Speaker 3 (01:19:02):
This was you know, they did. They did, and and
they've only got themselves to blame. We've talked about a
little bit. It is self inflicted. They've had themselves to blame.
It is a it's embarrassment in the way this happened.
And I want to see if they're gonna be able
to hold her accountable and what what does it even
look like? I've heard everything from fines to who knows
what else, and oh, it's an arduous task. I get it.

(01:19:24):
This wasn't a surprise, This wasn't none of this was
a surprise. And it's a bipartisan here. I think you're
gonna get several people on both sides of the eield
are gonna be like, yeah, let's do this, let's hold
let's hold her in the Department of Justice in contempt.

Speaker 2 (01:19:43):
And she's number one, been the the.

Speaker 3 (01:19:46):
Pooch kicker, if your will of this, I mean absolutely
embarrassing the way she rolled remember when she rolled everything
out to give everybody the binders.

Speaker 2 (01:19:55):
Embarrassing with that.

Speaker 39 (01:19:56):
We've got all the stuff on her desk, We're gonna come,
we're gonna do the thing.

Speaker 3 (01:20:02):
And then there was nothing. And then it was you know,
just on Fox, We've got everybody. It's just what takes time,
don't you worry? But but nothing, Yeah, this is again
self inflicted.

Speaker 32 (01:20:15):
Sky Roberts's sister, Virginia Roberts Duffrey, was among the first
survivors of Jeffrey Epstein to come forward and tell her story.

Speaker 1 (01:20:23):
I think we still have a big fight ahead of us.

Speaker 32 (01:20:25):
Duffrey took her own life in April, her brother telling
Hallie Jackson, survivors are expecting a lot more from the DOJ.

Speaker 3 (01:20:32):
I think a lot of survivors are feeling a bit
betrayed right now too.

Speaker 36 (01:20:35):
It's how the Department of Justice says there are two
hundred lawyers working around the clock to finish the work.
The members of Congress tracking the release belief at this
point the government is only released about ten percent of
the material that they have on Epstein.

Speaker 3 (01:20:50):
What, yeah, survivors are not happy and what we're going
to get is whatever I think the Senate and Congress
people are willing to spill their guts on that they know.
Outside of that, I have no idea. I again, you
did this to yourself. I consider and pretend that you

(01:21:12):
that this was all that you know, some sort of
conspiracy and hoax.

Speaker 2 (01:21:15):
It was not.

Speaker 3 (01:21:16):
It's a real people. And for those of you who
are in your fifties and sixties, like it's not a
big deal, maga blah blah blah blah. Great, that's fine,
that's fantastic, right, you know, especially boomers. But for a
lot of other people in a younger generation, they are
not thrilled by this, and they fell they felt that
they were you know, lied to, because they have been.

Speaker 2 (01:21:37):
They've been absolutely lied to. They have been, and some
of those women.

Speaker 4 (01:21:42):
Multiple Epstein survivors say the dj has violated the law
and are demanding immediate congressional oversight, including hearings, survivors like
Danny Benski pressing the DOJ for more transparency.

Speaker 41 (01:21:54):
We really didn't get to see as much as we
wanted to. You know, this was a law that the
law was passed and they broke the law that we
only saw a very small fraction of what we needed
to see.

Speaker 3 (01:22:09):
Yeah, well, good luck with that one. I don't know
what you think is gonna happen. I don't know if
you think that you're gonna get them to do anything.
Like I said, I think it's going to have to
be the likes of Massy and Rocanna. Remember they are
shielded if they bring up people's names on the floor
from any kind of prosecution, so they'll be shielded. So

(01:22:32):
do I think that's gonna happen. I think I think
that's a possibility. I think if they get desperate enough,
I think you may see something like that. We'll see
where it goes from here. Three two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four to twenty three. Act you had been to
show is your Well, it's your Insta, your X, your YouTube,

(01:22:58):
Friday Day Sunday obviously, and then we'll be back next
week Monday Tuesday, and then we're off again, you know,
to enjoy some time with our family, as we all
should be doing. So I'm pretty excited about that, just
hanging out and doing nothing.

Speaker 2 (01:23:14):
I've been watching a lot of Christmas movies.

Speaker 3 (01:23:15):
We're gonna play some some of the horrible ones a
little bit later.

stuff so insane, like somebody green lit this good God.

Hallmark movies and I watched Violent Night. You remember Violent Night.
So movie came out with David Harbor and John Leguizamo.

Speaker 2 (01:23:48):
I think it was two years ago, where.

Speaker 3 (01:23:50):
Santa Claus goes to deliver a present to this young
girl named Trudy and they're like their family is just
super high crust and there's a robbery and it's kind
of an action comedy, and so Santa has to come
and save the day.

Speaker 2 (01:24:06):
And let's just say, you don't want to mess with Sanna.

Speaker 3 (01:24:08):
Apparently as of yesterday that has been greenlit for part
two that'll be out next year, Violet Night Part two.

Minage was there.

Speaker 43 (01:31:37):
And for young men, don't be new scum.

Speaker 2 (01:31:41):
Ah look what she did there.

Speaker 43 (01:31:44):
Yes see they are young men. You have amazing role models.

Speaker 24 (01:31:52):
Like our.

Speaker 43 (01:31:54):
Handsome, dashing president, and you have amazing role models like
the assassin.

Speaker 1 (01:32:07):
JD.

Speaker 43 (01:32:07):
Van's our vice president. And when I say that, I
trust me.

Speaker 44 (01:32:19):
There's nothing new under the sun that I have not heard.

Speaker 2 (01:32:22):
So you're fighting.

Speaker 3 (01:32:26):
So obviously there's the rumors are that, you know, whatever
you want them to be. According to a lot of
people on the internet, the JD Vans, along with the cartels,
the French, foreign legioned people in witness protection, the aliens,
the military, and Turning Point USA all at a hand
in the demise of Charlie Kirk and Erica. It's like

(01:32:47):
and of course that Erica is pregnant with Charlie's now
with Charlie's baby boy JD Vance has been I mean,
there's so many crazy theories out there, but I was
just going, wait a minute, is that, Nicki Minaj.

Speaker 2 (01:32:59):
You have to allow about it?

Speaker 44 (01:33:00):
Truly, I have been called every single thing, and you
know what, God is so good you let it roll
right off your back. And this is what's so beautiful
about this moment, because if the Internet wants to clip it,
who cares.

Speaker 2 (01:33:13):
I love this woman.

Speaker 1 (01:33:14):
She's an amazing woman.

Speaker 44 (01:33:16):
She has a soul and a heart for the Lord,
and words are words, but I know her heart and
it doesn't even matter. And you say what you want
to say because I know your heart and I do
will not judge that.

Speaker 2 (01:33:29):
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.

Speaker 3 (01:33:32):
I love me. From Nicki Minaj even before this, because
I really don't care about what people's politics are.

Speaker 2 (01:33:36):
Are you talented at what you do? Nikki?

Speaker 3 (01:33:38):
And she is. She's got a good beat and I
can dance to it. But it was kind of funny.

Speaker 1 (01:33:42):
Continue for boys, boys be boys, Amen, be boys.

Speaker 43 (01:33:50):
It's okay, be boys. It's nothing wrong with being a boy.

Speaker 3 (01:33:57):
How about that? Amen?

Speaker 43 (01:34:00):
How powerful is that? How profound is that?

Speaker 10 (01:34:03):
Am?

Speaker 43 (01:34:04):
Boys will be boys and there's nothing wrong with that?

Speaker 6 (01:34:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:34:13):
So what do you think apples? That are those apples? Again?

Speaker 3 (01:34:16):
I find it very intriguing, the whole thing, and it
brought me to this. This is so you guys know
who Tom Sigar is. Well, his wife Christine is amazing, right,
she makes me laugh so hard. She's also a big
comic gen X comic, which you know she talks about.

(01:34:36):
Her name is Christina Pozitski and Christina p is awesome
and they have their podcast and she was on another
podcast talking about being a woman, which I found to
be rather interesting. So she's on trigonometry if you guys
ever seen it? To you guys, really really good podcasts.

(01:34:57):
They have a lot of people on that I find
out interesting and they have conversations, which is freaking amazing,
which we don't do anymore. But you start talking about
women and the woman's role. Now I remember jen x
Chance starts. You grew up at times with the state
at home mom, but not always with the state at
home mom. Usually we did our own thing because mom

(01:35:18):
was working. And it's just it's funny what makes women happy?

Speaker 23 (01:35:22):
And I was thinking on this whilet well, what makes
me happy is, unfortunately, more fortunately the traditional things. And
now had I said that to my twenty year old self,
I would be horrified because I was a good feminist
and I fought my way through comedy and I did
all the clubs. I I'll show you all be the
best female comic g And I carried this anger that

(01:35:46):
compelled me for twenty years, right, and then you become
I became a mom, and I got humbled by illness.
And then I was like, okay, so what makes me happy?
I know what makes me happy. I can't speak for
all women, but is there something to my biology, to
my essence? Possibly possibly do we know what makes all

(01:36:06):
men happy? I don't.

Speaker 1 (01:36:07):
Yeah we do, but I think too. It's like this.

Speaker 23 (01:36:11):
It was the male ideal of success that ruined women.

Speaker 3 (01:36:15):
Yeah, the male idea of success, which is a doggy
dog world. We're going to step on each other, We're
going to do everything we can to get to the top.
We are not going to stop here. We go dog
eat dog world, and women go ooh, that's what success
looks like.

Speaker 23 (01:36:31):
It was this idea that in order to become equal,
we had to be like you. Yes, that's the problem.
I have to have my career exactly like towns. I
have to be successful. It's like, this is not going
to work for me. This is not going to work
because I'm a mother. My body can't keep up with
this pace of work. It's not good and it makes
the woman angry, resentful, bitter, And now I'm useless because

(01:36:53):
if my kid can't come for a snoggle and my
cat can't come, you know, I'm the center of the home.
This is a true and it's not pretty to say anymore.
But that's just that's what I learned.

Speaker 2 (01:37:06):
Because that's what it is all about.

Speaker 3 (01:37:08):
You know why they call it Mama Bear because Daddy
bears out there doing whatever Daddy Bear does. Mom's there
to protect, Mama's there to race, mom is there to
do it's in the center of the home. You know,
I work, my wife doesn't. We're very blessed, and I
love spending time with my family. But and I'm very
fortunate because I have a studio in the same building

(01:37:28):
where I can go back and forth and see my
family in between my ninety nine jobs. And I spend
a lot of time. But the end of the day,
when I go to that house, my wife, friend's at house.
I mean, that's that's our house. But she is the
she's the person that is you know, she's the center
of that. And she's right and somewhere along the line,

(01:37:51):
you know, the whole thing with the feminism was, and
we've talked about this before, which is this bizarre world
of women that start having the opportunity to let's let's
make things equals, give everybody an equal shot to not
only do you.

Speaker 2 (01:38:09):
Want to be equal, want to be greater.

Speaker 3 (01:38:10):
And to do that, we've got to push you guys down.
We've got to chop you guys down, which is creating.
You know, as as you heard our good friend and
yours Nicki Minaj going, guys, it's okay to be a guy.
We're you're afraid where guys are confused, like should I
should I not do I ask you out, do I
say anything?

Speaker 2 (01:38:28):
I'm afraid he.

Speaker 23 (01:38:30):
And it's so interesting that you touched on power before,
because we were talking about power and women want to
be powerful like men are powerful.

Speaker 6 (01:38:39):
Women are super powerful just.

Speaker 23 (01:38:42):
In the same way we are the ones the puppet masters.
No offense. But there's a reason I'm sitting here talking
to you. My husband's on a plane to Indiana right now, Okay,
And I mean, I'm so grateful that he does do that.
I'm not saying that I manipula him to do that.
He wants to do that. But yeah, women's lives can

(01:39:04):
be fantastic if you let the guys just do their
own let them and do it.

Speaker 2 (01:39:10):
Amen. Amen.

Speaker 3 (01:39:13):
Again, it's not about this whole thought process that you
have diminished if you decide to raise a family and
to stay at home, that you're diminished, this whole bizarre world,
that somehow that you're less than when you really you're
doing the most important thing.

Speaker 2 (01:39:31):
And it is yeah. Power.

Speaker 3 (01:39:33):
You know, if women could design the power, you know,
the powers in the Avengers, they'd want all the same
things that everybody else has.

Speaker 2 (01:39:41):
Let's make it fair.

Speaker 3 (01:39:42):
No, the whole thing about the Avengers and all these
things is everybody's got their own unique power and ability,
so let it be use your strength. I don't think
there's anything wrong with that. In today's world, unfortunately, there
is stuff wrong with it. I just found it fascinating,
especially when you had Nicki Minaj up there, and of
course the that's going on with I don't get too

(01:40:03):
deep into, you know, this insanity when it comes to
the Turning Point and the conspiracies and all.

Speaker 2 (01:40:12):
I just I don't.

Speaker 3 (01:40:14):
Because I find it to be.

Speaker 2 (01:40:17):
Just high schoolish.

Speaker 3 (01:40:20):
I mean, Charlie died and everybody's like, well, look at
the way that Erica's reacting. I'm like, ah, it's been
three months. What do you want her to do? Do
you want her to her? Thing is she wants to
move forward with Turning Point. She wants to see it
become a success. She wants his legacy to live on.
All of those things. What are you supposed to do?
It was traumatic, it was awful. We get that, but

(01:40:44):
I don't, you know, it's like everybody thinks she should be.

Speaker 2 (01:40:46):
At home wearing black all day. I don't. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:40:54):
I just sit there and I shake my head and go,
how do we get to this part? How do we
get to this weird part of this? But I just found,
you know, the turning point stuff with the Candace and
and all of this. And I've said last week and
I'll say it again. The thing with Candace is she
figured out a way to take the politics in the

(01:41:16):
world that she lived in in politics and turned it
into these kind of podcast crime kind of podcast where
like serial member Cereal, the podcast where you know, they're
trying to uncover a crime and you know, all of
these things, and she's turned it into you know, something

(01:41:37):
uber successful. Now, do I think a vast majority of
it she says is absolute horse crap? Yes, but it's
about entertainment for her. Now, Charlie was a little bit
closer because obviously, you know, it's a much different thing.
I mean, it's different than you know, the whole thing
with Macrone's wife where she says, hey, Macrone's wife used
to be a dude and has a wiener or something.

(01:41:58):
I'm not quite sure what that's all about. But again,
and I don't care, means very little in the overall
scheme of things. But still, it's just the whole thing
is fascinating and I just can't get into that. But
I just tell my wife all the time. It's like
I want to try, but I don't care. It's like,
what do I don't care? But what about Niah campup
bother Venezuela. For those of you guys not keeping score,

(01:42:20):
we are, I think, trying to take a third tanker.
Not quite sure exactly what you know. This is all
about which tanker we taking? Why are we taking this one?
Here's the way it's gonna work. At some point in time,
We're gonna go in May, hopefully never boots on the ground,
and something may happen. We're gonna try to get Madua

(01:42:41):
out of there. The bigger issue is not kidding about
Maduro out of there because Mdua's got to be reading.
If you guys have not seen what Asad is doing.
So Asad is in Russia, he plays I think he
plays PlayStation all day, has women, as his families got money.
He's just he's living the life of a billionaire.

Speaker 2 (01:43:01):
Even though he may have a family.

Speaker 3 (01:43:02):
He's just having a good time, you know, pissed off
that he isn't gonna run his country.

Speaker 2 (01:43:06):
An want a little bit. He's probably going, you know,
the stresses, it's less.

Speaker 3 (01:43:09):
I like this is nice, and Madua's got to be
thinking the same thing. But afterwards is the issue. What
happens afterwards, that's going to be a big issue. And
I say that because I think what happens is that
it's a domino effect, because right now Cuba is going
to pay the biggest price, sooner than maybe Venezuela, because

(01:43:30):
they're so They're such a mess. They're broke, They're beyond broke.
The financial collapses haveen in Cuba. There is nothing left
over there and without the help of Venezuela and the
likes of China and Russia and stuff like that, this
is going to start that effect. And that's exactly what
Marco Ruvio and all of them want. It's that revenge.

(01:43:54):
They're coming for Castro's people and Castro's legacy. So Venezuela
is the first in it. From there, the collapse of
Cuba and then what well we're gonna find out three two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four to twenty three atch had Benson shows your ext.

(01:47:07):
the Devil. Let's find out a little bit about Santa Claus,
where he lives and how he operates.

Speaker 24 (01:47:11):
Like living a story book adventure beyond your wildest imagination.
From the north pole of fantasy Land comes a feature
length table with the most enchanting characters in the whole
wide world, headed by the white whisked Fellow who's the
granddaddy of them all. Now, a magic motion picture transports

(01:47:35):
you to an over the rainbow land, past the doors
of Sata's towering castle and the strange, mysterious all seeing
eye into a fantastic crystal laboratory filled with weird and
wonderful secrets no one has ever seen before.

Speaker 3 (01:47:53):
That's right. Santa lives in the sky and with the wizard,
so there's that. It's it's an amazing thing. So Santa
has to fight the devil in this, and the devil,
by the way, doesn't go to the rich people. He
goes to the poor people and tries to get them
to steal stuff because that's what you would do, including

(01:48:14):
a young girl by the name of Flupita, and so
you don't want that to happen. So there's that. It
is phenomenal. It's everything you could dream of. Okay when
watching an awful, horrible Christmas movie. We'll do another one
tomorrow as well. Totally rich meal like this is timmy right.
Any family's rich. He doesn't need anything, so there's no

(01:48:35):
temptation for him. But Lupito over here, she wants that doll.
She might steal it.
