Speaker 1 (00:00):
As we listening to the lyrics, is there a message

(00:02):
here or is this just one of those things?

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Uh, it's newly released music from Golden Earring, So no,
it's nothing to do with then.

Speaker 1 (00:10):
Okay, I don't know if you Sometimes you play it
because there's a message intertwined in those lyrics, you know,
like a fine twisting up a branch, And I'm supposed
to decipher it first.

Speaker 3 (00:21):
Thing on a Monday, and I'm not going to do it.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
I can't expect people to figure out the messages on
a Monday morning. You we're still trying to figure out
how many dimensions. Chess is supposed to be. Regular chess
is two dimensional, flat board. I think the point that
the reason that they say three dimensional is because checkers
are flat and chess pieces pop up off the board.
Like I'm not the one that said this, Fox says, and.

Speaker 3 (00:43):
Gutfield said it, And you believe anything Gutfeld said.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
You just watched the clip of Gottfeld saying chess is
already three dimensional.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Regular chess is not three dimensional, is separate from regular jests.
Four dimensional, five dimensional, and six dimensional are also separate
from regular jests.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
And for three get up with Gouttfeld. I guess you
agree with Tom. I'm on Craig Gottfeld side. You're on
commalace side. How do you feel right now?

Speaker 1 (01:05):
But I'm comfortable with that because somebody tricked Gutfield into
saying something silly and then you did the same thing.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
But that's okay, all right.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Look at the end of this got a minute, Can
I just break this party up, because I got a
check and see if they if they did what they said,
they're going to remember Friday. I don't know if you
guys remember Friday or not. It was several days ago. No,
I don't remember it. You probably had a weekend of
drinking and partying and god knows.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
What all that's true? I did, okay, I'm right.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
So I told you before we left on Friday, South
Carolina is gonna take one out later this evening, and
I double checked.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
Sure enough, they just did well.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Friday night, South Carolina line of man was executed by
firing squad And he's the third guy that has been
shot in fire and squad on you know, like that's
a death mentalty third time this year.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
All right, So if I'm not mistaken, part of the
reason why some red states started moving to firing squad
and it's limited, but there's a couple at least. I
think it's Idaho or Idaho and Utah.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
They got it right there on the list. Course South Carolina,
I had a list. You could you could go electric chair,
you could go with the injection.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
The company that makes the injectable drugs was limiting who
could buy it, or how.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
They were running short or what they had wasn't working.
I don't know, but my one squad works every time.
No one's picking electric chair. Huh No, they didn't want
to do that. Do they let the suspect pick or
the judge or the victims? I think the guy that's
getting off, I think it's his choice.

Speaker 2 (02:40):
I mean, firing squad seems like the easiest way to
go because it's just a bullet to the head, it's quick,
it's a three electric chair. Sounds painful for sure, right,
and then what's the other thing in the injectable? Is
that because it might not work?

Speaker 1 (02:53):
That sounds like and it'supposally like burns and it's like,
you know, sets your veins on fire. Three prison employees
all live, Ammo, you know.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
What he used to do?

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Those long they'd have like ten guys in the firing squad. Right.
They always used to say one guy got blanks and
you didn't know who it was.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
So then somebody can't be blamed for the dust. Every
one of them can say I didn't kill him. You know,
you have to believe that you had the blank.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
Well, these there were only three prison employees and they
all got live AMMO, and they all shot it. He
was wearing a little I don't know he was his shirt.
It was like a little bib over his shirt that
had a target that was placed right where his heart
would be.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
And then he sits in a chair.

Speaker 3 (03:40):
Is that then?

Speaker 1 (03:40):
I don't know if he sat understood it, But they
had ten witnesses and he it was his choice, died
by firing squad and boom, sure enough they hit that
bull's eye target located on his chest there and he
barely he still had a couple of shallow breaths in
him before he was officially pronounced expired.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
Look at this photo here I got on the screen, Billy.
They show in the room two chairs. They have a
room with these black drapes and this weird checkered floor,
and then it says. South Carolina's firing squad is pictured
behind its electric chair, which is covered at the Broad
River Correctional Institute in Columbia, South Carolina. Yea death room.

(04:25):
Inmates could choose among firing squad, electric chair, and lethal
injection for their executions. If you don't select one, the
default is the electric chair. Wow, that's hardcore. And look
at it too. It looks like something out of a movie.
It doesn't even look real. It's probably been in movies. Yeah, well,
well they didn't. They didn't use the chair unless you
just sat there. Well anyway, not for nothing here, but

(04:48):
this guy deserved it, apparently.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
No, No, you don't understand. He was a real victim here.
You just didn't know that he was abuse.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Stephen Corey Bryant taunted police by writing a message in
blood after murdering three men in a week. He's become
the third inmate executed by firing squad in the state
this year.

Speaker 3 (05:11):
She wasn't surprised you did it.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
No, He once scrawled the words catch me if you
can on a wall using the blood of the sixty
two year old victim. Willard tj Tesen was executed Friday,
November fourteenth for the two thousand and four murder pronounced
dead at six oh five murderers. He ended up killing
that guy and a couple more. It's possible that he
got a I mean, the way they wrote the article,

(05:35):
I don't know. I'm not a lawyer, and I certainly
don't know much about this case. But the way they
wrote the article makes it sound like he got the
death penalty for the third guy and then he got
what life in prison for the other two, I don't know.
Brian's attorneys argued he should be spared from execution because
he was sexually abused as a child.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
He was abused as a child as mother drank. Apparently
she could really put him down while she was pregnant,
you know, So he was messed up from the get go.
Certainly wouldn't his fault he went out and killed.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
People, all right. On that note, I was hanging out
this weekend with somebody who specializes in prosecuting people that
commit child sex crimes, and so it's a fun weekend
talking about that. And one of the points that was made,
and this is a person who's not as conservative as
me and Steve and Billy ed Are told me that
it's important that these people get strict sentences because despite

(06:24):
the fact that they're all victims, it is a spiral,
it is a chain reaction. Sure, they're all victims. Every
adult child molester was a child themselves who was molested
at one time. But you've got to break the chain.
You can't just keep allowing this to happen.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
Once a one guy finds out, oh uh, they treat
us different. If well, then yeah, that happened to me too,
So I can get away with stuff.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
No, it's sad, but remember that to do it, five
percent of criminals commit ninety five percent of the crimes.
If we want to live in a society of freedom
and libertarianism and absent of any draconian punishments, there's got
to be at least a tiny window of time here
where we clean house and every dangerous criminal out there
gets an absurdly long punishment because for crying out loud,

(07:07):
we can't keep doing this anymore. Amen, brother, These people
keep walking the streets. You know, there's so many of
these cases in our city. We've talked about him before
as a famous case where they arrested a guy for
beating up his pregnant girlfriend. And then they released him
an hour later and he got out and he murdered her,
and he murdered the baby too. Sure, I mean because
you can't, you know, pregnant women pet her dad can't
get birth after that.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
I guess that's, you know, from a conservative point of view. Sure,
Otherwise it was just a mass of cells. We didn't
know what it was going to turn into.

Speaker 3 (07:37):
Right.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
Well, we have a lot of listeners in Memphis, and
Billy ed and Steve and I we've gotten to note
them quite well over the past couple of years, and
the vast majority of them are grateful for Trump sending
in the National Guard. And believe me, we're gonna criticize
Trump quite a bit this morning. But you remember a
week or two ago, all people could talk about was
how egregious it was that he was sending the National

(07:59):
Guard to cities like Memphis and Chicago.

Speaker 3 (08:01):
It's just awful. Worst thing ever.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
Here's an email from someone named Heather. Hi, Kenny and Steve.
They didn't mention you, Billy yet. My name's Heather, and
I am a Memphis listener. Absolutely love the National Guard
being here. It was desperately needed, and the erratic driving
has calmed down tremendously. Bring on the additional troops. Check
out Central Barbecue and the Barbecue Shop next time you're
in town. Heather, Thanks Heather.

Speaker 3 (08:22):
Well, all right, Dan, hi Will.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
We talked to several people on the phone Friday too,
if you remember that call from Memphis as ordered or suggested,
and they were quite happy with the way things were
working out there too.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
Well.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
Now I think it sounds like what do they call it,
Operation Midway Blitz, that was to send the National Guard
into Chicago. It sounds like they're toning it down. A
little National Guard can stay in Illinois but can't patrol.
According to a judge. They ruled that last month. Now
the Texas National Guard is bringing some of the troops

(08:55):
home so it won't be on Texas taxpayers to clean
up the street it's to Chicago anymore. But on the
other hand, Chicago is still an abysmal third world crap factory.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
And on a Monday morning, one of our two favorite
things to do is besides asked Kenny about his weekend
because he's yelling and single, loves to mingle and mix
it up with the you know, with the folks out there.
Sure is to count the number of people shot and
or field in Chicago.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
Well, good news there, Billy shaking. Was a very cold
weekend in Chicago. In fact, right now it's in the thirties,
so it's quite chilly yesterday and throughout.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
Generally kind of tamp down on some of the bloodluts.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
Yeah, that's true. So it looks like not a lot
of violence this weekend in Chicago. Only six at and
eighteen shots so now only yeah, not a ton. Now
it's started off.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
Have you noticed though, they're getting apparently they're becoming better shots.

Speaker 3 (09:57):
That's eighteen. I'm go ahead.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
I'm sorry. I was looking at two different reports here.
It's two dead, nine hurts. That reports from last month.
Sorry about that. Looks like they updated an old articles,
so it's kind of connected. It's two out of nine
is not that good.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
But when it was six out of eighteen or six
out of twenty four, either way, that was that was
pretty good shooting.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
That was warmer weather. That was back in September.

Speaker 1 (10:19):
Now they're chilly and they're shaken, so their aim is off.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
Two dead, nine hurts, So I thought it was a
quiet weekend in Chicago. But then this other report popped up.
On my screen right as I was about to click.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
Out two out of eleven if you count them all, right,
and that's that. That's about average for Chicago for a
cold day.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
Now, remember there's uh, you know, still plenty of time
there before the end of the year for them to
get those numbers up. They just need one warm spell
and the whole city could be covered in blood.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
Did they shoot any of the Chicago Bears the football players?
I mean, not like you know, Bears on four leg Well,
let's see here. I know New York likes to do
that occasionally. New York Jets, not Giants. Giants fans might
have jumped in his way. New York Jets corner back

(11:08):
Chris Boyd was shot in New York City early Sunday morning.
So I guessing he didn't play, No, absolutely not. Police
said shots were fired two am on the street and
they found that guy, twenty nine year old laying their
gunshot to the belly, hit him in a bread basket,

(11:28):
and they took him to the hospital and I guess
he's still with us, but in critical condition.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
Boy I would not recommend getting shot like that. Sounds
like it could actually not on game day. No, that's
gonna make it hard for you to really bad timing
and you can't tailgated, not on Monday.

Speaker 3 (11:47):
What are you gonna wear on casual Friday?

Speaker 2 (11:49):
To post its in a sugar.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
Packet Walton and Johnson red balloons and stuff.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
And in the meantime, the world is getting nuked blue
just like that.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
Sorry, where's it geting nukedat?

Speaker 4 (12:01):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (12:01):
In the song in the song okay when we're about
to nuke your brain with some terrible news. Two male
illegal aliens, two illegal aliens who happened to be men,
have been arrested in connection with the repeated rape of
a twelve year old Honduran girl who was tortured for
more than a decade after being smuggled into America in
twenty fourteen. A severely abused child was rescued last month

(12:24):
after escaping from a home in the Houston area where
she was held captive by two female suspects, who were
subsequently charged with the felony injury to a child. Me
Brokaylor has this troubling story for our viewers. Brooke, what
do we know about this case?

Speaker 4 (12:41):
Hi? Sandra? Well, first off, this is definitely the most
disturbing child's abuse case that I have ever seen. The
twelve year old victim at the center of this, federal
officials tell me cross the border and was an unaccompanied
miner under the Obama administration when she was just one
years old. So this happened in twenty fourteen at a
time when there was a massive surge of these young

(13:03):
children coming across the border alone.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
Why are you guys so mean to all these illegal
immigrants that come over the border. We'll put that the
victim was smuggled across the border by her mom as
a one year old baby, then placed in the custody
of a sponsor, then trafficked and trafficked and traffic some more.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
Now when her people and her family and whoever all
those people were it did all those terrible things. That's
still not as bad as what Trump's doing.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
What's Trump doing?

Speaker 3 (13:28):
He's making them go home and sometimes blowing them.

Speaker 2 (13:32):
Up and sometimes blowing them up.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
Yeah, got another one, this one.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
I don't know if it was Venezuelan's or not, but
it was in a known drug trafficking corridor of the
Pacific Ocean or whatever. And they said went ahead and
took I don't know how many people were on that boat.

Speaker 3 (13:51):
Three I believe three more dead.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
That's a total of eighty two drug run and terrorists
that have been taken off the board.

Speaker 3 (13:59):
I appreciate.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
I'm good with it. Yeah. Yeah. Look, generally, two things
I don't get real excited about are the war on
drugs and the war on terrorism. But often is the
case when you hear people talking about the war on
drugs or the war on terrorism, it's a complicated, convoluted
effort to go out and clean up some foreign country.
And these are just boats filled with criminals out in

(14:21):
the middle of the ocean and drugs. Yeah, it's sharts
and lots of drugs. It's very easy to blow them up.
They're filled with fentanyl.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
I'm you know, fentanyl doesn't explode on contact, so they
have to you know, go ahead and just you know,
you can't just like.

Speaker 3 (14:33):
A little bit.

Speaker 2 (14:34):
It's not tannerize. You get to blow it up big time.
And they did, all right. So the other controversy and
golfing the Donald today is the Epstein files. Trump said
yesterday that House Republicans should vote to release any and
all files related to the pedophile and yes, there's going
to be a vote being pushed by Thomas Massey. And
I guess Donald Trump said some unkind things about his

(14:56):
late wife over the weekend. Well, about his getting married
so quickly after his wife died.

Speaker 3 (15:01):
Trump Trump's or Thomas Massey's.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
Trump had some comments about Thomas Massey.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
Because Trump's been married multiple times too, he could have
had comments about his own ex wife.

Speaker 2 (15:11):
Yeah, this was about well, Thomas Massey's wife died a
little less than a year ago.

Speaker 3 (15:16):
I think Trump's ex wife died also, that's true.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
Yeah, but Thomas was still married to his wife when
she died, and then.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
They went and just snag the first Gally ran into
and married her.

Speaker 2 (15:28):
A woman who worked for Ran Paul. Now on Friday,
November fourteenth, that you know, this Friday on truth Social,
apparently Donald Trump said that Massey got married already, saying
his wife will soon find out that she's stuck with
a loser. Massey married Caroline maffa former congressional stafford for
Senator Ran Paul last month. Massey's late wife, Ronda died

(15:52):
in June of last year, so a little over a
year ago. They were married for over thirty years.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
I don't think that too soon. I mean that everybody's different. Yeah,
some people need more time and some people need to
get on with life. Sounds like he was ready to
get on.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
With it well. As it turns out, this is not uncommon.
Widowed men often get married faster due to a greater
reliance on their wives for social and emotional support.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
Usually when laundry, you know, there's laundry vacuum in yeah,
you know, dinner, all kinds of reasons.

Speaker 2 (16:23):
Usually, men that were married and then lost their wife
because of things like cancer, death, whatever it may be,
get remarried pretty quickly because they have a sense of
fulfillment and well being from being married. They didn't want
to get divorced in the first place, so they're not
going to go out and enjoy bachelorhood. They just get
right back into it. Yeah, starting in a relationship does
not mean that the widower is trying to replace his

(16:44):
late wife. Look, I'll just tell you, I like Trump
as a president. I thought this was kind of a
trashy thing to do, bashing the guy forgets married.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
He likes to poke people. He likes to, you know,
extra jab them. Sometimes it's mean, sometimes it's funny, sometimes
it works. You know, sometimes you jab people, and you
them just right and they end up doing what you
wanted him to do.

Speaker 2 (17:02):
This didn't make Trump look good, it didn't make Massy
look bad. I don't know what his intention was, but
I'm not going to sit here. Yeah, your wife died
of cancer, you lose her. I don't know. I just
can't get on board at that. Look, Trump's the greatest
president of my life, but I'm calling balls and strikes here.
This was not a classy thing to do, and it
has now become a distraction in this Epstein controversy, which

(17:24):
also involves Marjorie Taylor Green.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
There's a little nit picking back and forth between him
and her. It's beneath him, and it really ought to
be beneath her too, but it doesn't seem to be.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
Marjorie Taylor Green is apologizing for taking part in the
toxic politics that have been going on right now. She
was doing an interview with CNN over the weekend where
she apologized to the audience. Obviously, there have been some
claims by Donald Trump that Marjorie claims she's being threatened,
that her life's in danger because she's criticizing Trump. Trump

(17:56):
says that's not true. He doesn't know why anyone would
care about her, and CNN host Dana Bash said, obviously,
any threats to your safety are completely unacceptable, but we
have seen these kinds of a tax or criticism from
the president. It's not new, and with respect, I haven't
heard you speak out about it until it was directed
at you, so now I can't help. But notice here,

(18:17):
you know, once again CNN is playing the part that
the Republicans are the ones that are drumming up all
the violence. And no, for the record, no one's actually
trying to hurt Marjorie Taylor Green that I'm aware of.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
Not that I'm aware of, but you know, I'm sure
that she's had threats. Hell, we get death threats, So
you know, it's not like that big a deal. I mean,
it is to us, but yeah, it's not like she's
the only one.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Look, I'm not going to make a big deal out
of this on the air. But one of the things
we have learned in if you live in a big
blue city and you're a public figure and somebody in
dangers your life, it's very, very difficult to get law
enforcement to do anything about it. I'm not saying that's
what happened to us.

Speaker 3 (18:57):
It's just a start. But once they act, you know
they're gonna get them.

Speaker 1 (19:03):
And I mean if they don't kill you, you know,
if you survive the death attack, then you know, good
for you.

Speaker 2 (19:08):
Yeah right. I mean, if you're dead, you're dead. You
can't do much about it. But boy, if you're alive,
you're gonna give some great testimony in the courtroom, aren't you. Yeah,
it's Monty Walton char

Stuff You Should Know
Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
