Speaker 1 (00:00):
I just heard the phrase for the first time this morning,
and yet you seem to know all about it already.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
I want to get credit. I've been calling it y'all
street for a while, and it's other people are starting
to call it that, and since it's catching on, I
want credit. Hell is it all right? Picture this billy
at New York just handed the keys to Wall Street
to a thirty four year old dude with no history
of running anything. His entire economic plan fits on a
protest sign. Oh a commie mayor. He thinks bull market
(00:28):
is what happens when a vegan butcher runs out of
oat milk.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Oh oh, oh, are you killing me?
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Zoran Mom? Donnie the professional rent freezer and thirty dollars
a minimum wage evangelist is now the mayor elect of
the city that is supposed to be the economic capital
of the world, or at least the United States.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
That's where Wall Street exists. Wall Street. Oh oh, I
did it? I get it, y'all street. It's moving to
like what the south somewhere. They're going to take it
to Atlanta.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Well, Wall Street's not going anywhere, but we're going to
start our own Texas Stock Exchange. Hopefully soon. The plan
actually goes all the way back to the nineteen seventies.
That's when we started flirting with the idea. We funded
a study to see what could Texas stock market look like?
You know, that would be a very interesting idea. And
since then the project has really gotten legs, especially over
(01:19):
the last few years. Governor Abbitt said, let's do it.
A lot of investments were made by JP Morgan, Chase,
Citadel Fortress, and hundreds of millions of dollars started piling up.
And then all of a sudden, it looks like it
might actually happen. Tesla, Toyota, Oracle, Charles Schwab, Caterpillar, Golden
zach Hewlett Packard. They all now call Texas their home,
(01:41):
not just.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
You know, moving their investments and stock and their business
like that, moving thousands and thousands of employees.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
So here in Texas, where we've created more jobs over
the last few years than any other state. You're welcome
where we seem to have this longest economy. Texas added
almost four million people uh to our population in recent years.
Our our our energy industry pumps oil and wind and
cheaper electricity than basically anywhere else. Why shouldn't we be
(02:12):
the ones to have our own Wall Street? So gall
Street is just Wall Street South. Here with her take
on it is congressional candidate Alex Mieler. Alex, it's my
understanding that you don't think we should have Wall Street
in Texas. You're against this?
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Hello, Yeah, this is Alex A. Uh No, that's not.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
What probably not the first thing on our minds.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Thank you for the kind intro.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
I'm just messing with her.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
We were welcome.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
We were actually going to talk to Alex about something else.
But Alex is running for congress right now in UH
for you know, Washington, d C. Federal Congress in the
UH in the latest congressional registry to pop up in
the Houston area. But while we're on the topic, what
do you think of this idea?
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Alex, No, it's good because a lot of I think
so background. One of the things I actually think makes
me strong candadate is I do have a lot of
private sector experience. You know, took companies, public works on
pretty much every sort of public transaction you have, and
thankfully now on the private side and a small business owner.
(03:17):
But the one of the big things where people don't
want to be incorporated in Delaware. Is they started mandating
DEI on these boards, right, It used in and a
bunch of other kind of social directives instead of what
the goal of corporations are supposed to be and what
you you know, and it's to maximize corporate profit for
(03:37):
your shareholders, not what the liberal change was for stakeholders.
So now it needs to be a combination of all
these things that you can't really measure, and so businesses
don't focus on the bottom line, which is what I
want you to do. You know, when I'm giving you
my retirement, I want you to maximize that value. And
(03:57):
it's a clear performance objective. Now that's okay if you're
not a great CEO, if you check the right quota,
say the right things. And so these great oil and
gas companies, and that's what I worked with, were being
starved as capital because they didn't need some special interest scorecards.
And we can all define climate change and those goals.
That's like, you know, having things that kill our American
(04:20):
jobs that actually aren't friendly when you will tell the minerals,
let alone you know, the natural resources that they consume.
It was just a really arbitrary way to pick winners
and losers. So the more we get back to free markets, definitely.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Favor of Delaware has for a long time bragged that
they're the best place to, you know, keep have your
headquarters for your corporation. But it's my understanding in Delaware
they think IPO stands for eye punish Owners. Oh clever,
Thank you very much. It's in my forthcoming article for
the Houston Chronicle about y'all street. I. Well, that'll be
fun pad a opad yesterday. Did you mention Alex Mieler
(04:55):
in your article? No, but Alex is a friend. We
took her the other day with a group of other
people to a I have a shooting event we did
at the Texas Gun Club.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
She didn't surprise you, did she because this girl can shoot.
Of course, she's also ex military.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
You know, Alex was in charge of a diffusing explosive.
She actually ran a team of people that were in
Why don't you explain it, alum squad? Yeah, what did you
do for the military?
Speaker 4 (05:18):
No, yeah, so I was in the Army bomb squad,
deployed a company to Afghanistan and certainly not as heroic
as a lot of the people that work for me,
But The cool thing about bomb squad is it's the
most academically rigorous job, So nobody really cares how friendly
(05:41):
are how much they may like you. You're either safer
or not safe.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Ye squad driven, you get blowed up.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Exactly. So right now, it's just thoughts about a fifty
pass rate for those that are selected. But it is
a great equalizer and it is a true merit based
rank doesn't really matter much in eud So my lovely
direct manner that you see Kenny and know that's very
much a reflection of being a bomb tech and really
(06:14):
proud about that. And I think in politics would be
a lot better off if people have that same sort
of mission. First, it's not about who's your buddy, it's
about what what can you get done?
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Copy that? Yeah, yeah, I like that. Well, tell us
about the race you're in right now.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
How's it going, you know, I.
Speaker 4 (06:30):
Mean, it's it's definitely a tough race. So I'm running
for the newly drawn ninth congressional district And it's a
bit of a misnomer because while it has the number
of al Green the district, it's none of the land.
So al Green's going to run for Texas eighteen, so
you might end up having three people pass away in office.
You had Sheila Savester Turner and now eighteen, what will
(06:53):
have Al Green getting in that race. Perfect This district
that I'm so excited about is eighty five percent East
Harris County, fifteen percent liberty, and it's a true reflection
of of America because use this industrial backbone of the
ship channel port. This district about a trillion of GDP.
(07:14):
So quite literally this is there is no Golden Age
of the US without this district firing on all cylinders.
And you also have important agriculture, you know, rice farmers
and ranchers, so you kind of as a perfect encapsulation
of everything. It truly does make the US great with
being the petrochemical hub, but also significant ag as well.
(07:36):
And why I was excited for this is saw an
opportunity where you know, I don't have the uniparty behind me.
I'm running against britsco Caine, you know, been in office
since his thirties and you know a chance to really
fight for our district continue those same goals for when
I ran for Harris County Judge and so have a
(07:56):
strong support from all of your local leaders as well
law enforcement, but up against for certainly the Austin Swamp.
And I think there's just a clear difference on where
my loyalties are and my focus on one of the
big issues in this race. It is centered around Colony
Ridge because Risco called it the American Dream, took money
from the developer twice and recently took money from a
(08:20):
home developer who built a division a subdivision in there,
and it's I think it's the American Nightmare. And we
don't need people to just keep tweeting about things or
co sign their name to a bill, but nothing gets better.
We need people to actually be disruptors and actually get changed.
And that's my point is, Okay, tout your conservative voting record,
(08:40):
yet you worked with the Democrats to impeach Trump's you know,
top ag and now you apologize, you apologize for Colony Ridge,
and it's like, but where you know, where are the winds?
You know, my property taxes in Harris County twenty percent
this year. Yeah, I'm not the only person. You know,
I got to pay for Hasmat commercial insurance that we're
(09:01):
industrial gas distribution. You know, where is this great? Uh?
You know Austin legislature and where you've had ten years
to be in leadership making it easier for people to
do business, grow jobs, and focus on public safety. It's
just I don't think just calling things that are problems
huge wins is the answer. We need to get in there.
(09:23):
Trump needs workhorses. We have enough show ponies. You know
a lot of people are good in politics on getting
on TV, but it's like, what can you get done?
And you know, you don't have to like me to
know that. I put my work ethic against anyone else,
and I'm probably sharper on policies than anyone else. That's
because I care about it and I'm not I'm not
reading a poll, right. I live here, I raise my
kids here, and I'm running a business here. I know
(09:46):
what the big issues are and I have the skill
set to actually fight and move the needle form.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Well, I think we lost a lot when you didn't
win the race what three years ago for county judge,
even though they said that you know, the their person
that is the county judge won the race. I think
we know how that election went and kind of like
a presidential election not long ago. But anyway, this is
(10:11):
a chance to get Alex Meeler fighting for us on
the right issues.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Colony Ridge is, it hasn't gone anywhere. For those that
forgot about Colony Ridge.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
This kind of like that epic deal in Dallas, only
this is.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Houston, sort of epic city is for Sharia laws.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
They changed the name of that that's called the Meadow.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
The Meadow now it is so much better. Colony Ridge
is supposed to be the largest housing development for illegal
immigrants in the country. They've been accused of predatory lendingly.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Different, not Muslims, illegal aliens, Right, it's difference.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
When people go to Colony Ridge, they say it's like
visiting a third world country. There's packs of stray dogs
roaming the streets. High foreclosure rates, very deceptive marketing practices,
failure to disclose costs, lack of industry infrastructure, squalor despair,
public service challenges. As an old squalor, Yeah, and you
and you blame your opponent for those. Alex well I.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
Certainly was part of the problem. And so my point
is you had the opportunity to fight. So back in
twenty three he participated in a PR tour that was
organized by Trey Harrison developer and was with Christina Morales,
one of the most progressive members of the Austin Swamp
and called it the American Dream, asked for crime data,
(11:30):
said we need more information, and the key point is
the timeline. That's the same time that the entire congressional delegation,
including doctor Babbin who represented it, said we need a
federal investigation, we need federal resources. And Republican Party of
Texas had also issued a resolution calling for Ken Paxton.
So this wasn't something where og what was I didn't
(11:52):
know what's going on? You actively took steps encounter to
the Republican Party of Texas in the entire Texas delegation.
Oh and by the way, you happen to take a
couple donations before then and since then while running for
Texas nine, you took money from one of the largest
home builders in Colony Ridge Boy. And so you know,
(12:15):
if it takes you when it's already eighty thousand people,
the big So what is this is still growing? You
can fly over Colony Rage and I've posted it on
Twitter and you just see cleared subdivisions. So the estimates
are that it's going to go to two hundred and
fifty thousand in the next few years. And what's so bad?
Even obviously I very much feel for Liberty County, but
(12:38):
let's just say you didn't care about Liberty County at all.
For all the listeners, they're wastewater, you know, the sequel
matter because there are very loose development stunits that is
draining into loose and drinking water.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
That's nasty.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
What a mess.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Well, I think Alex Mieler is the right gal to fix.
I got one more question, kind of off the political topic.
If you have time real quick, we got to break.
What do you got, Billy? If if I found a
bomb under my car or in the house or something,
and there's a red wire and a blue wire, which
one do I cut?
Speaker 2 (13:15):
A smart smash smash smash. Walton and Johnson Radio Network
arek reminder kids. If you like dirty jokes and right
wing humor, join us this Friday night in Bayed, Saint
Louis and this Saturday night in Metaie as the Walton
Johnson Show and friends some members of The Walton Johnson
(13:36):
Show and friends of the Walton and Johnson Show. We'll
be doing stand up comedy and tickets available right now,
will be in Base Saint Louis Friday night and New
Orleans on Saturday night.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
How do we acquire such tickets?
Speaker 1 (13:48):
We have questions in the emails for both shows, and
people are saying, you know, because you mentioned it yesterday,
you mentioned how to get tickets, but for some reason
they latched onto the first part, you're gonna do a show,
and then they didn't latch to the second part.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
I think the easiest way to get tickets is go
to jesse isfunny dot com. If that's too confusing for you,
find one of my social media accounts, I'm Kenny Webster,
and you'll find a link to the page where you
buy the tickets. Go to my Kenny Webster on Twitter, Instagram,
book face if you want, and then usually from there
you'll find the link. So well, that's for people that
(14:28):
like to prepare silver ahead of time.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
What if I just white woke up and said, you
know what I ought to do tonight?
Speaker 3 (14:34):
I want to run down there and see that show.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
I just get some like a ticket at the door.
I mean, there's no way to know if it's going
to sell out before Friday or Saturday night. Take your chances.
Usually these shows do sell out but then often is
the case, we'll.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
Find here's what you do, and you say, I'm here
for the comedy show, need two tickets, and they go, oh, well,
show sold out if it is sold out, And then
that's when you go, oh yeah, but I'm a personal
friend of Kenny Webster. I want to see jokes on you.
I don't have any friends I know, and they're gonna go, yeah, right, not,
you know, and you go, just kidding. I'm personal friends
(15:09):
with Jesse Peyton. I serve time with him.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Okay, that would seem more realistic because he did go
to prison.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
So that if you mentioned you serve time with him,
the guy that's you know, checking you at the door,
it's probably gonna realize you're a hardened criminal, a felon.
You probably have shaked somebody or shived them share. I
don't know how that works anyway, So you know, he'll
probably just be scared and just let you in.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Yeah, so that could work in your favor, or you
could just get the tickets right now. By Kenny Webster's
my name, I'm on x I'm on Instagram, I'm on Facebook.
So look up one of those accounts and you'll find
the tickets.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
That sounds easy enough. Yeah, but somebody's still going to
email listen to you know?
Speaker 3 (15:48):
How'd it working?
Speaker 2 (15:48):
What do I do? If someone emails us, I'll reply
with a link. How does that sound?
Speaker 3 (15:52):
That sounds fair?
Speaker 2 (15:53):
So don't delete the emails in the meantime and I'll
send them a link. See.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
I would love to come to Kenny show in Metori,
but I have not been success sold in purchasing tickets.
What is the venue in Metai.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Little the What is the venue in Metaie? That's a
great question. Yeah, you already know the Little Theater in Mississippi. Yeah,
little Theater in Base Saint Louis. It's called in Metaie.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
This Saturday night, we will be performing at Cork four
six one two Quincy Street. I think it's called Cork.
I wouldn't have named it Cork. That was their choice
if they didn't ask me. They may serve wine, Cork,
wine and martini bar. It's called Yeah, how did I know?
So that's where we're going to be on Saturday night.
On Friday night, we will be at a place called
(16:36):
the Little Theater in Bay Saint Louis, Bay Saint Louis
Little Theater. All right, Dan, which I'm told is actually
not a big theater, so it's not just a clever name.
Oh cute, and it will probably that will probably sell out.
It does look cute. Actually, look at it's like a
yellow building. Adorable. Yeah, it says star Boarding House. What
do you think that means? I don't know. I'm just
(16:57):
looking at photos of it online. I know, I look
at things. I see Sidney Sweeney over there to the side.
But she cut her hair. You have no use for
her now, Yeah, I'm not interested in that. Now that
she cut her hair, she's like a boy to me.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
She still doesn't look as bad as Miley Cyrus in
that picture you showed us.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
I know, it's sort of shame. All these attractive women
are starting to expire now.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Evin send us an email and he said, you think
Miley looks bad? Look up the Ulsen twins. You know
the way they look lately not good.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
I'm starting to notice Hollywood does things to these young women.
And oh, we're going to Japan. China is telling tourists
to avoid Japan, and a feud is escalated over Prime
Minister Takachi's Sinaized Taiwan support. Oh boy, they're mad, China's
Ministry of Culture and Tourism says ought not go to Japan.
(17:45):
They put out a bulletin on Sunday saying they solemn,
solemnly remind Chinese tourists they should avoid traveling to Japan
for the foreseeable future, alleging that their safety cannot be
guaranteed in a country filled with samurais and raw.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Fish around just chopping heads off with swords left and right.
I saw that Black Rain movie. You know, what'd you
think of that? That's pretty real, dude. Do you know, guy,
be in the subway or riding along on a motorcycle
or something, you just whooped out a sword and just
steal your head's gone.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
All the travel warnings were part of China's rapidly escalating
diplomatic feud with Japanese Prime Minister Takachi Seney, who enraged
Beijing ten days ago by telling the Japanese parliament that
a potential Chinese invasion of Taiwan would be seen as
a situation threatening Japan's survival.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
M Mmmm, you know, China Japan have a really wicked
history of hating each other and having wars, and you
think Japan so tiny, China so big, but Japan kicks
their ass.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Yeah in the past.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Well, it turns out that Japan doesn't always have the
nicest history. I know, nowadays we see them as being
real nice. But look up this thing called the Nanjing
massacre or the Rape of Nanjing. It was the mass
murder of Chinese civilians, nonc batons and surrendered preson prisoners.
Back during World War two. Japan went into China and
(19:05):
they just raped everyone. It was just like a non
stop mass raping. But what did China do to, you know,
start it? Maybe China did some on slavery. Okay, So
it turns out that Japan at the time was like
the Germany of Asia. They declared war on the world,
and they think world, You think that's pretty ambitious. Well,
to declare war on the world, they'd have to start
(19:25):
with their neighbors, and so japan forces captured major cities
like Beijing, Shanghai, Nanjing, forcing the Chinese Nationalist government to
relocate to Chonging. King Well, yeah, in the interior, and
at its peak, Japan controlled roughly twenty five percent of
China's vast territory.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
China's got it easy, though, if they get in trouble,
they can just run high behind that big wall they got.
They do have a big wall. They let them build
a wall, but they wouldn't let Trump build his. Well,
don't build it anyway.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
As it turns out, back in the mid twentieth century,
millions of Chinese were forced into labor. The Japanese military
also forced an estimated two hundred thousand women to work
as quote comfort women, often basically sex waves and the
military brothels, where they were repeatedly raped, tortured, and often
murdered when their health failed. And on top of all this,
(20:13):
Japanese also did something called chemical and biological warfare, with
notorious units seventy three to one one hundred conducting lethal
human experiments on Chinese civilians of war in the occupied Manchuria.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Okay, so some good, some bad.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Obviously, every country's history has some black marks on it.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
But they also gave us hello, Kenny, right, we got that.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
That's the thing. We dropped a nuclear bomb on them.
And since then Japan is like this country where the
men don't have sex, uh, and they're all obsessed with
video games and like animated stuff like plushy dolls and
that sort of thing.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
The fifties and sixties, we just sat back and looked
at Japan, like, damn, people are tough.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
They hate to give up.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
They're still fighting on some of them islands out there,
and we bombed them twice with nukes and they just
shook it off like a dog shaking water out of
his ears. But since I don't know, the last twenty
years or so, it looks kind of weak. Yeah, it's
kind of pussified.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
It's an island filled with really skinny men who wear eyelighters,
so you know, kind of like JD Vance basically a
little bit.
Speaker 5 (21:18):
Yeah, because democracy basically means governments by the people, off
the people, for the people, but the people are retarded.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Stay tuned for more Waltman Johnson
