Speaker 1 (00:01):
All right, let's play a game.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
You're a local adult, hypothetically in a near urban suburban
community right outside of a big city, and a bunch
of young conservative teenagers want to open a TPUSA chapter.
They want to launch a new chapter in your town.
Do you a offer them your support? Do you be
(00:26):
quietly do nothing because it's none of your business you're
an adult, or do you see docs the children.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
On the internet and trying to get them hurt?
Speaker 3 (00:35):
I think I got this one, okay of go ahead,
mostly from your tone and infliction.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
I'm going to go with C See. I don't think
you would have done that, but that's what happened. Hi, everybody,
Good morning in America. It is a pleasure to be
with you here today the golf live from the Gulf
Coast of America.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
It's the Walton and Johnson Radio Network. I guess you
can feel it. Huh, Yeah, it's in the air. I
mean I feel yeah, what do I feel?
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Fall here? Right?
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Well, I mean it's it's right over there. It's just
east of here.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
You know, as a longtime hokey morning radio DJ, do
you know what we missed out on yesterday? I really
it's not a big deal. But uh, every year I
enjoy playing this song and it was yesterday, so wouldn't
make any sense to play it today?
Speaker 1 (01:22):
No, it would not, but we will anyway. Our younger
listeners don't even understand what we're talking about. It's a thing.
Never mind it. Yeah, they don't know. They don't need
to know. You've never been to a wedding before anyway.
Care Hang on a second, do you remember?
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Is that why that's the lyric because it's the end
of summer, the last night of summer.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
I didn't write the song, but I am familiar with it.
Fall won't officially arrive on our in our country until
to nineteen this afternoon on the Eastern time zone.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
And that is when the sun moves south of the equator.
Correct now, for those of you that live south of
the Mason Dixon line, I think summer ends in two
and a half months.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
But for the rest of America, boy howdy, oh yeah,
you can just feel it. It's in the air, BurrH
not so chilly yet, get out and enjoy the foliage.
Speaking of the heat, this this is the way they
try to trick you into reading news stories on the internet.
This is how the news works today. A young woman
(02:34):
was doing one of the sideline reporters at a college
football game Saturday. Happened to be Oklahoma Auburn playing in Oklahoma.
The headline says this woman she was forced to change
outfits before the game?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Oh wow, was it so slutty? Was it so.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Horribly vixenish that she had somebody called her in and said,
you can wear that on TV? The way it sounded
like in the headline. No, she was forced to change
clothes because she underestimated the heat ah in Oklahoma, and
so she had to go shop at Cole's to pick
up something a little more appropriate for the ninety plus
(03:19):
degree temperatures in Oklahoma.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
I guess when you're searching for a headline as a journalist,
I don't know. I get your point. That infuriates me
because it's clickbait. But then on the other hand, the
poor kid didn't have a story to publish.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Whoever the guy.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Was, you know, I guess as a as a hustler,
I respect the hustle as a news consumer and a
noise the crap out of me.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Her name is Molly McGrath, and you know she's pretty
you know, good looking, very attractive, and yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
The forced to change.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
It's she chose to change into, you know, a little
bit cooler clothes.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
That's all I noticed.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
There were a lot of people little story yesterday wearing
black in Arizona.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Uh huh. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
And it wasn't just a few people, it was two
hundred thousand people. Now, to put that into perspective for you,
that George Strait concert he had at Texas A and
M University that had one hundred thousand people, and they
said that was the largest concert gathering in the history
of the United States of America. And Charlie Kirk got
twice as many people as that. Elvis got eighty thousand.
(04:29):
Muhammad Ali I think at fourteen thousand. Obviously it's not
a contest, but Charlie's winning. I think that's true. But
also Charlie would point out it wasn't it wasn't just
him that people were gathered together for as an evangelical gathering.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
It was God.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
You know, Charlie Kirk is gone and he's not coming back,
but his legacy lives on. I mean, he is the
conservative Martin Luther King Junior of our time. He is
truly And by the way, for those of you that
are annoyed or offended by what I just said, tell
me a belief the two of them didn't share. You know,
I don't know what it would be. You'd have to
(05:05):
really dig something. I'm sure there's something, but it's a
traditional marriage. Anti abortion. I'm sorry. Do you think a
black reverend in the mid twentieth century was pro abortion?
Speaker 3 (05:16):
But I'm sure if you talked to a Democrat about
it today, they would tell you.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Absolutely.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
They'll tell you all kinds of things Charlie Kirk said,
very horrible, hateful things that Charlie Kirk supposedly said, and
yet not one time have they shared the audio or
video clip of him saying these things.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Look, I've I've worked with Charlie.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Before, I've spoken at events with him, and I've heard
him speak I don't know, probably hundreds thousands of times
because of clips and news medias, because of what we
do for a living. I cannot think of a controversial thing.
I don't know what he's saying to make these people
so mad. I think it's just his mere existence. Yeah,
because if you go in and you just watch an
(06:01):
average Charlie Kirk town Hall and average Charlie Kirk college debate.
An average Charlie Kirk political rally speech. He's not saying
anything that shocking. It's as mainstream center right as it gets.
I don't even think in the grand scheme of things,
he was that part of the right. He was really
just a Christian. So on Friday, they had to vote
(06:21):
to decide if they would condemn his murder. Seems like
an easy one, right, Surprisingly, no, thirty eight Democrats voted no,
we will not condemn his murder.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Fifty eight Democrats voted no, we would not condemn his murder.
One of them, Acasio Cortes. Dude, that's dark too. Hey,
do we all agree murder's wrong?
Speaker 3 (06:43):
Nah, we don't all agree on that, not unless it was,
you know, some somebody in showbiz. Now if they'd how
would these people be reacting if somebody had killed Jimmy Kimmel.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
You know, it's an interesting question. They took him off
his show. Somebody drove by.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
One of the ABC studios and fired shots into the studio,
into the studio, Yeah, fired three shots into the ABC studios.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
I don't even I don't even know which.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Town it was because Sacramento, all kinds of protests, especially
in the Northwest. Imagine, I mean they murder on this
side and the other side loses his job and they
have way more sympathy and way more upset over Jimmy Kimmel.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Yeah, isn't that crazy?
Speaker 3 (07:36):
And it is very That's the exact definition of That's
why they say liberals are mentally ill.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
And according to the just the raw ratings, the raw
data here, these people weren't even watching that show.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
No, none of these people defending Jimmy Kimmel were watching.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
If they were, probably still have his job.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
I will make this point for the m teenth time
because I it needs to be repeated until it resonates
with people.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
I'll keep saying it at least occasionally.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
If Jimmy Kimmel was profitable, if Jimmy Kimmel was popular,
if Jimmy Kimmel had an audience worth keeping, ABC Disney
would have put him on one of the four streaming
services that they have. The only thing the FCC regulates
is terrestrial airwaves. You could put something on the Internet
and the FCC can't do anything about it, I mean
very little, right, Yep. They could have put him on Hulu,
(08:27):
Disney Plus, ABC dot Com. They could have put him
on ABC News dot Com. They didn't put him in
any of those places. Guess why because nobody's watching it. Oh,
it's just it was not a good show and the
ratings went down.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
I think the total drop in ratings over the last
just couple of years seventy two percent down.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
And that's in what they call the.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Dream demographic, twenty five to fifty four year olds. The
money spinders down seventy two.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
To put that into perspective, this radio show beats that
out several times a day. Oh yeah, and I don't
make eighty thousand dollars an episode, do you?
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Well? Yeah you do.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
I thought you got your You didn't get your eighty?
Speaker 1 (09:16):
What?
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Yeah, I'll make eighty tomorrow too.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
I have to call our agent starting it is Monday,
and got it's Monday again. Monday, Monday, Monday, Thy god
gg I am Walton and Johnson Radio Network.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
A couple of quick reminders, folks here at the Walton
and Johnson Show, when we do something for charity and
the money actually goes to charity, that's this isn't like
the fire Raid concert where we're gonna cheap it.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Oh, it's a legitimate, you know, because we don't really
need the money.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
What with us making eighty thousand dollars a show. Sure, yeah,
that's a real thing number, right, don't you can make
eighty thousand dollars a show? Thank? Really?
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Well, yeah, he made fifteen thousand dollars a year and
fifteen million dollars a year. And when you calculate the
number of shows that he did now to be I mean,
you're right to your point. Maybe that doesn't account for
how much money was spent on you know, promotion.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Sorry, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Did he have to did he take that? Did he
pay for his entire staff with that money?
Speaker 1 (10:13):
No? That was his salaries? Okay, right, yeah, good to
know now.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
But all that being said, here at the Walton Johnson Joe,
when you give us money for charity, it actually goes
to charity. So a couple quick announcements here we have
new merch at I LOOVEWJ dot com obviously for Charlie.
I don't know if this is too clever or not.
I had this idea the other day while I was
out running around the park. I thought it'd be cool
to have a shirt that says Kirk Daniels. Hebdo and
(10:42):
I was noticed a little about a decade ago, Charlie
Hebdou was all over the news. Conservatives were really fired
up after a satirical news magazine in Paris, France was
violently attacked by Islamic extremists. And then several years ago
a famous country music singer who was a very outspoke
at conservative activists passed away. That would have been Charlie Daniels.
(11:05):
And then I'm sure we all know the story of
Charlie Kirk. So if you buy one of these Charlie
Trifecta shirts at Walton at I LOVEWJ dot com or
Walton Johnson dot com, we will give all that money
to charity.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
We always do.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Of course, if you if you don't need a shirt,
why don't you just come hang out with us Sunday,
October fifth at Bad Astronaut Brewing Company, Chad Prayther, Jesse Payton,
the Walton and Johnson Show special guests. All that money
goes to wheelchairs for warriors. It always does. We've raised
I don't know, hundreds of thousands, maybe over a million
(11:37):
dollars over the last decade doing these comedy shows, I
don't know, would have never really sat down and done
the math.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
That's a good sign that we don't know because we're
not We're not doing this for credit and praise. Look
what we did, No the comedy shows itself, they raised
tens of thousands of dollars.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
And then on top of that, obviously.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Every year we give a big push to Wheelchairs for Warriors.
But by the way, it's not the Wounded Warrior Project.
That's a different charity. I'm sure they're nice people. This
is a much smaller, locally operated charity with a much
smaller budget. That's why we're supporting Wheelchairs for Warriors. And
if you go to Wheelchairs for Warriors dot org, not
only can you buy a ticket, you can also make
a tax deductible donation, and we think you should. It's
(12:19):
for a very good cause to have out some very
worthy American heroes who do not get the resources they
need from our nation's va hospitals.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
And that's as simple as that, right, that's right.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
I was curious how they got two hundred thousand people
into that football stadium yesterday for the Charlie Kirk funeral
slash revival. A fair question and apparently they got one
hundred thousand in that stadium. They put twenty thousand on
the floor where normally there would be a football game
going on, so they managed to put more people down there,
(12:52):
so it held a lot more than it would for
a football game. But they had a second stadium, right,
I didn't really pay that close attention to the seating arrangements.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Yeah, they had another stadium in Arizona that was filled up,
that was also packed, and then in that they just
had screens that you could watch the memorial on, and
then they had people outside as well, And they said
it was the largest gathering, the largest evangelical gathering in
the history of Christianity, I know, wild right, and probably
the biggest gathering for any single public figure in the
(13:24):
United States. And a pretty good indication that the Democrats.
Should we just skip the midterms next year? I mean, no, no,
this is it, right, you know, I don't take any joy.
I'd rather it be a close call and still have Charlie.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
But we lost Charlie. So let's face it, you guys
are getting crushed next year.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Well, we don't know for sure until AOC has spoken
her mind and gives us a fresh take on what
she sees is the future of America. Oh in Jasmine Crockett.
We don't want Jasmine Crockett to go unheard from do
We don't worry. We'll play those sound by try after this.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
What day is it? It's Monday morning? What Monday morning?
Monday Morning's a going here today? He was ready for
a great first day.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Getting ready for the big day, get ready for a
great week.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Every day is a great dest for me.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
I'm a person who owns his positivity.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
You're listening to the Walton and Johnson Radio Network.
