Speaker 1 (00:00):
Family for a minute, whose family yours are mine, my
(00:04):
family and Jimmy Kimmel's family.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Okay, as long as it's not mine.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
I have a family member. I don't want to explain
who it is because I don't want to. It's a
real person. I don't want to heart crazy liberal.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Lunatic kind of Oh okay, kind of like the people
that sent that whistle blow and pamphlet around. Yeah, blow
the whistle pre pre that's so silly.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
A lot of people in my family don't get along
with this one person. Now here's why that's unusual. This
person doesn't like everyone else in the family because they're
too conservative. And for a long time, I was the
only person in the family that this person would talk to. Okay,
and I'm the most conservative person in the family, huh.
And the reason why is because for a long time,
when this person would go on one of their crazy political rants,
(00:48):
one of their I didn't I don't care. They'd call
me a nazi or a right winger or whatever, and
I just let them get it out of their system.
And then they'd calm down and be like, hey, I
know you're upset about life right now, but you know
I don't. I don't control election results, and I you
know I don't. I don't care that you're on the
far left. I don't think you should care that I'm
on the far right. And usually that was enough to
(01:09):
bury the hatchet.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
You can tell them that, you know, life is hard,
and it's harder when you're stupid, like you know liberals,
and I'm sure they'll understand.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
At some point, this exhausted itself.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
It kept happening over and over again, and I realized
this person probably has substance abuse issues, maybe a drinking problem.
I don't know, and I just decided to let it go,
stop trying. At some point gave up on them. Well, no,
I'm actually telling you this, you know, with my head
between my legs. I failed at trying to make peace
(01:40):
with this person.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
It did not work.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
No, it didn't, and it makes me sad, and I
realize I'm not the only person with this problem. Jimmy
Kimmel's wife and show producer, We're on a podcast recently
to talk about how they stopped communicating with members of
their own family because they were Trump supporters. Do you
notice how not always, but usually this always only goes
in one direction. And I'm sure there's examples of how
(02:04):
I'm wrong about this, But more often than not, I've
noticed in life when there are two families that don't
get along or don't talk to each other because of politics,
it's almost always the person on the left that won't
talk to the person on the right. The person on
the right doesn't care if you're a commy. It's Thanksgiving, Yeah,
it's fine, it's Christmas. You can wear your sickle and
hammer and to the dinner table. I don't care. But
(02:26):
they don't want to hear from you. They'd love to
tell you all day about their liberal politics. I'll dare
you try to tell them about yours. Yeah, And as
you know, I'm pretty good at having arguments about politics
with hostile, irrational people. I'm pretty good at it. But
family's family. Blood's thicker than water. Elections come and go.
That's why I think it's such a shame that things
(02:48):
like this happen.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Thankfully, my immediate family all they did not vote for
Donald Trump. They did the first time, a few of them,
we flip them the second time. It's weird. When Donald
Trump was first elected, I was so upset, we all were.
But I remember thinking. I understand it because I grew
(03:10):
up in a very conservative Republican house. I mean, I
bought my dad a Rush Limbatai. In high school, I
voted Republican straight ticket, and that's what I was told
to do. And then I left Saint Louis, Missouri, and
I met people from different backgrounds, and I started to
understand different things and different needs and different people. And
(03:33):
so there's like a little bit of sympathy I have
for people in my family that I feel are kind
of being deliberately misinformed every day.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
And let's positive for a minute before we unpack why
I'm playing this gets worse and worse. This is a
woman who was a Republican tolerated her father when he
idolized a guy who's clearly more conservative than Trump. If
you had to make a list of conservative Americans from
the twenty first century, would Rush be above or below Trump?
Speaker 2 (04:01):
I would say he was right at the top.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Rush was on the far right back when Donald Trump
was an accepted member of the Democrat Party among the
Hollywood elites.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Oh yeah, back in the nineties and stuff.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Clearly, oh so Rush a guy who was against gay
marriage and marijuana and all the things that Trump seems
to be okay with was tolerable. But you won't tolerate
Trump a more, a less conservative person.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
That doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
So if what you're saying, if I'm getting it, he
stopped doing the show for us or anybody who might
be watching, and he just he did the whole show
for his wife, which he could have done at home.
Do a show for her at home, and but he well,
he's whooped, you know. Yeah, So she told him what
(04:52):
to say and he said it.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Yeah, there's a couple more minutes of this SoundBite. But
rather than making everybody sitting with us to do it,
why don't I just tell you what she says. She
said to me, voting for Trump is not voting for
my husband and me and our family. This is not
just Republican versus Democrat for me anymore. It's family values.
I'm angry all the time, which isn't healthy at all.
I wish I could deprogram myself. It's that last part.
(05:18):
They really get it, doesn't it deprogram myself?
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Well, when you introduced the beginning of this, you said,
Jimmy Kimmel's wife and head writer. Yeah, it's the same person. Yeah,
it's not like you were introducing us to two people,
his wife and.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
His head writer. It's his wife and show producer, Molly McNerney.
His wife was also show producer and head writer. Apparently. Yeah,
well that's just how it's labeled in the sound by that,
I didn't watch the whole podcast.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
When she is writing your jokes or whatever, you know,
roughly not jokes, you better read them.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
You're not going to be very happy at home, are you?
How about that?
Speaker 1 (06:00):
And then I mean, I wish, I wish I could
deprogram myself. She admits her her outrage over the existence
of people who have vaguely different opinions than hers.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
But I'll bet you when his career is over, because
it's pretty much over now, she is never going to
take the blame for into that career.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Well, nobody watches this show anymore, right, they're only keeping
it on the air and out to prove a point.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
So he did everything she wanted him to do, and
Ninny fails, and.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
She won't She won't step up and say, well, that's
my fault.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
The lead singer of the Mighty Mighty Bosstones was the
announcer on Jimmy Kimmel live for years. The guys had
been friends for decades. He's a liberal who didn't like vaccines,
which used to be a liberal thing. And so when
the pandemic hit and he said I'm not getting the
COVID shot, Jimmy Kimmel fired him and never talked to
him again.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Well, it depends on who was president when the shot was,
you know, when you took it. If Trump was still
president for that little gap of time there when the
vaccine was available, when it first came out.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Nobody wanted it.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Oh no, the Democrats, Pelosi and everybody. We're not taking
that now. Not if it's a Trump vaccine. Then Biden
gets torn in but a boom. But I mean, just
like that poof everybody has to take the vaccine. Yeah,
and comme only even a minute. If Trump says to
take the vaccine, I won't. And then Trump lost and
she told everyone take the vaccine or you.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Lose your jobs. That's exactly right.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
I'm beginning to notice something. There is no consistency of
intellectual opinions on the left.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Starting to dawn on us, isn't it today? In Tech History?
Speaker 5 (07:41):
November tenth, two thousand and one, Apple Ship's the first dipod,
the device that changed the course of both music and
technology industries.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Update today, November tenth.
Speaker 5 (07:53):
Many people trash their old iPods, not realizing they could
still be used as an external hard drive many stories
for music, photos, and files, or they were just embarrassed
to be seen with old technology.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
This has been today in tech history. Dodgs got fired
for literally no reason. My boss said, it's because you're
on your phone too much. You're too distracted at working.
Stay tuned for more. Waltman Johnson. Now this is a
hot dog Harvey. Hot Dog Harvey.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
He's a young man on the internet who enjoys eating's
coney clubs.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Oh it didn't sound like a boy, did it.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
I guess this kid's a big star on the internet
because he sings about eating hot dogs. Apparently in Cincinnati, Ohio.
There's a big deal there because of the Skyline Chili.
It's got something to do with that. I don't claim
to understand. If your kid was obsessed with eating hot
dogs to the point where he dresses up like one
and sings on the internet, would you lean into that.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Because you wanted to go viral. That's the best thing
that could ever happen to anybody. If somebody in the
family goes viral, it just speaks well for the whole family.
You take that, you know, for the rest of your lives.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
You don't think you would speculate that that maybe that
means something just carry us what you'd say, No, No,
I think it's he seems like what you're talking about.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
He seems like a nice kid. All jokes. So of course.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Oh, some of the things that happened around the globe
while you weren't paying attention. A big old earthquake struck
northern Japan, an area where they have not one but
two nuclear power plants, at a six point nine earthquake,
and then some other quakes and some aftershocks.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
So far no problems reported.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
I guess they built things different over there because they're
expecting earthquakes. And a super typhoon hit the Northern Philippines
it again. I hope, I'm I hope I don't get
in trouble for this. The way they wrote it, it
looked like the typhoon's name was Fung Wong, Oh Bung Wong.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
I believe that's accurate.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
I hope though, But anyway, didn't disturb us we had
some fabulous weather in the South. Now, you said it
snowed in Chicago where there were their problemas with the snow.
They're used to it, right.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Well, I mean, yeah, that's uh. They they they did
have to close some schools. Today they're doing at home
learning in some parts of the city.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
I guess you know.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
One pro of the pandemic is it taught people how
to still attend school if there's weather related conditions that
prevent you from traveling.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
So that's a thing today in Chicago.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
But in the meantime, we've been looking for some snow
in an area where we're gonna be going.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Soon and so forth. No, it's still brown in Purgatory, Colorado.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Yeah, but they and they had another typhoon of sorts
and Portland over the weekend, a typhoon of degeneracy.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Oh no, I do actually like that. They're owning it.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Portland furries organized a protest against ice agents and they
called it Degenerates against Fascism, So they're owning it.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
They dressed up like puppies. Sure, pause off.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
A coalition of Kingster Furry pup play participants and other
self identified degenerates against Fascism marched on Sunday afternoon to
the Ice facility in Portland, chanting, no Trump, no Ice,
no fascists, thank me. I'm a bad little puppy. Will
they blow into whistles? Certainly sounds happen pre pre pre
like that. Yeah, all right. If I go to some
(11:38):
of the immigrant communities in town and I start take
your whistle, right, just doing that randomly, pik enough for everybody,
they'll pass them out. Does that make me a bad guy?
Or am I trying to make sure everybody stays on
their toes?
Speaker 5 (11:50):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Were you blowing it ironically? Yeah? Oh boy? Never mind?
All right? What are our thoughts on the fifty year
mortgage idea? Like it or no? First I heard of it.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Trump likes to test policy proposals on social media. This
was his newest one. The US Director of Federal Housing
and chairman of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mack, Bill Poulte
posted something, thanks to President Trump, we are indeed working
on the fifty year mortgage, a complete game changer.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
You know, I wonder why not? Really?
Speaker 3 (12:21):
I mean, I'm sure there's some negatives and some positives
to it, but they got a thirty year mortgage, right, now,
does anybody keep their house thirty years anymore? I know
your parents probably did. In your grandparents they bought a
house they stayed until they died. But these days, people
are you know, if they're in a house five years,
that's a long time.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
And they want to give out two thousand dollars stimulus
checks to everybody except the rich.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
All right, I'll take it. I don't consider myself to
be rich.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
But the last time they did that round of stimulus checks,
you remember, we made just a little too much money
to qualify.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Yeah, I don't think they they allow us to decide
whether we're rich or not.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
I think they'll decide all The fifty year mortgage guarantee
is that your house will be owned by the bank
until you die, and after get the illegal immigrants out
of our country and the cost of housing will go down.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
All right, dude, I think it's.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Safe to say that this proposal might end up in
the no go category.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
But the extending the length of the loan from thirty
to fifty years means you're paying less monthly, obviously, But
and again, you don't plan on to stay in there
thirty years or fifty.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Years, So what is it to you. Well, you know
what John used to always say, don't forget boys and
girls too, eat it every day. Hey again, you've reached
the end of the Walton and Johnson podcast. Good for you.
That means you listened all the way to the end.
Does it mean we're going away now never to be
heard again?
Speaker 1 (13:41):
No, no, no, there will be a new show tomorrow.
Oh thank goodness, unless it's the weekend or we're off work.
But as always, you could go to waltonand Johnson dot
com and you can find all kinds of cool stuff there.
Our news blog, links to our social media accounts. Believe
it or not, our personal lives are very boring. If
you comment on our social media pages, we might reply.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
The chances are we're just sitting around waiting to hear
from you. Yeah, so, what's the big deal. Go to
Walton Johnson dot com today. I'm told there's a store.
Oh yes, we do have a lovely store and you
could buy things there. Walton Johnson dot com. What's not
to love
Family for a minute, whose family yours are mine, my
(00:04):
family and Jimmy Kimmel's family.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Okay, as long as it's not mine.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
I have a family member. I don't want to explain
who it is because I don't want to. It's a
real person. I don't want to heart crazy liberal.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Lunatic kind of Oh okay, kind of like the people
that sent that whistle blow and pamphlet around. Yeah, blow
the whistle pre pre that's so silly.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
A lot of people in my family don't get along

on the far right. And usually that was enough to
(01:09):
bury the hatchet.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
You can tell them that, you know, life is hard,
and it's harder when you're stupid, like you know liberals,
and I'm sure they'll understand.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
At some point, this exhausted itself.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
It kept happening over and over again, and I realized
this person probably has substance abuse issues, maybe a drinking problem.
I don't know, and I just decided to let it go,
stop trying. At some point gave up on them. Well, no,
I'm actually telling you this, you know, with my head
between my legs. I failed at trying to make peace
(01:40):
with this person.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
It did not work.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
No, it didn't, and it makes me sad, and I
realize I'm not the only person with this problem. Jimmy

it's fine, it's Christmas. You can wear your sickle and
hammer and to the dinner table. I don't care. But
(02:26):
they don't want to hear from you. They'd love to
tell you all day about their liberal politics. I'll dare
you try to tell them about yours. Yeah, And as
you know, I'm pretty good at having arguments about politics
with hostile, irrational people. I'm pretty good at it. But
family's family. Blood's thicker than water. Elections come and go.
That's why I think it's such a shame that things
(02:48):
like this happen.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Thankfully, my immediate family all they did not vote for
Donald Trump. They did the first time, a few of them,

But I remember thinking. I understand it because I grew

to do. And then I left Saint Louis, Missouri, and
I met people from different backgrounds, and I started to
understand different things and different needs and different people. And
(03:33):
so there's like a little bit of sympathy I have
for people in my family that I feel are kind
of being deliberately misinformed every day.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
And let's positive for a minute before we unpack why
I'm playing this gets worse and worse. This is a
woman who was a Republican tolerated her father when he
idolized a guy who's clearly more conservative than Trump. If
you had to make a list of conservative Americans from
the twenty first century, would Rush be above or below Trump?
Speaker 2 (04:01):
I would say he was right at the top.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Rush was on the far right back when Donald Trump
was an accepted member of the Democrat Party among the
Hollywood elites.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Oh yeah, back in the nineties and stuff.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Clearly, oh so Rush a guy who was against gay
marriage and marijuana and all the things that Trump seems
to be okay with was tolerable. But you won't tolerate
Trump a more, a less conservative person.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
That doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
So if what you're saying, if I'm getting it, he
stopped doing the show for us or anybody who might
be watching, and he just he did the whole show
for his wife, which he could have done at home.
Do a show for her at home, and but he well,
he's whooped, you know. Yeah, So she told him what
(04:52):
to say and he said it.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Yeah, there's a couple more minutes of this SoundBite. But
rather than making everybody sitting with us to do it,
why don't I just tell you what she says. She
said to me, voting for Trump is not voting for

it's not like you were introducing us to two people,

His wife was also show producer and head writer. Apparently. Yeah,
well that's just how it's labeled in the sound by that,
I didn't watch the whole podcast.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
When she is writing your jokes or whatever, you know,

You're not going to be very happy at home, are you?

You don't think you would speculate that that maybe that
means something just carry us what you'd say, No, No,
I think it's he seems like what you're talking about.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
He seems like a nice kid. All jokes. So of course.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Oh, some of the things that happened around the globe
while you weren't paying attention. A big old earthquake struck
northern Japan, an area where they have not one but
two nuclear power plants, at a six point nine earthquake,
and then some other quakes and some aftershocks.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
So far no problems reported.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
I guess they built things different over there because they're
expecting earthquakes. And a super typhoon hit the Northern Philippines
it again. I hope, I'm I hope I don't get
in trouble for this. The way they wrote it, it
looked like the typhoon's name was Fung Wong, Oh Bung Wong.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
I believe that's accurate.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
I hope though, But anyway, didn't disturb us we had
some fabulous weather in the South. Now, you said it
snowed in Chicago where there were their problemas with the snow.
They're used to it, right.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Well, I mean, yeah, that's uh. They they they did
have to close some schools. Today they're doing at home
learning in some parts of the city.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
I guess you know.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
One pro of the pandemic is it taught people how
to still attend school if there's weather related conditions that
prevent you from traveling.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
So that's a thing today in Chicago.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
But in the meantime, we've been looking for some snow
in an area where we're gonna be going.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Soon and so forth. No, it's still brown in Purgatory, Colorado.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Yeah, but they and they had another typhoon of sorts
and Portland over the weekend, a typhoon of degeneracy.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Oh no, I do actually like that. They're owning it.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Portland furries organized a protest against ice agents and they
called it Degenerates against Fascism, So they're owning it.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
They dressed up like puppies. Sure, pause off.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
A coalition of Kingster Furry pup play participants and other
self identified degenerates against Fascism marched on Sunday afternoon to
the Ice facility in Portland, chanting, no Trump, no Ice,
no fascists, thank me. I'm a bad little puppy. Will
they blow into whistles? Certainly sounds happen pre pre pre
like that. Yeah, all right. If I go to some
(11:38):
of the immigrant communities in town and I start take
your whistle, right, just doing that randomly, pik enough for everybody,
they'll pass them out. Does that make me a bad guy?
Or am I trying to make sure everybody stays on
their toes?
Speaker 5 (11:50):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Were you blowing it ironically? Yeah? Oh boy? Never mind?
All right? What are our thoughts on the fifty year
mortgage idea? Like it or no? First I heard of it.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Trump likes to test policy proposals on social media. This
was his newest one. The US Director of Federal Housing
and chairman of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mack, Bill Poulte
posted something, thanks to President Trump, we are indeed working
on the fifty year mortgage, a complete game changer.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
You know, I wonder why not? Really?
Speaker 3 (12:21):
I mean, I'm sure there's some negatives and some positives
to it, but they got a thirty year mortgage, right, now,
does anybody keep their house thirty years anymore? I know
your parents probably did. In your grandparents they bought a
house they stayed until they died. But these days, people
are you know, if they're in a house five years,
that's a long time.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
And they want to give out two thousand dollars stimulus
checks to everybody except the rich.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
All right, I'll take it. I don't consider myself to
be rich.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
But the last time they did that round of stimulus checks,
you remember, we made just a little too much money
to qualify.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Yeah, I don't think they they allow us to decide
whether we're rich or not.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
I think they'll decide all The fifty year mortgage guarantee
is that your house will be owned by the bank
until you die, and after get the illegal immigrants out
of our country and the cost of housing will go down.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
All right, dude, I think it's.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Safe to say that this proposal might end up in
the no go category.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
But the extending the length of the loan from thirty
to fifty years means you're paying less monthly, obviously, But
and again, you don't plan on to stay in there
thirty years or fifty.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Years, So what is it to you. Well, you know
what John used to always say, don't forget boys and
girls too, eat it every day. Hey again, you've reached
the end of the Walton and Johnson podcast. Good for you.
