Speaker 1 (00:00):
The President signed the bill to reopen the government, and
it does the thing that I'm sure everybody wanted when
the government got shut down in.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
The first place, back to work America.

Speaker 1 (00:10):
No, no, no, no. It prevents the sale of intoxicating
hemp based or hemp derived products, including Delta eight, from
being sold online, in gas stations and in corner stores. Booooo,
his boo?

Speaker 3 (00:23):
Where did this come from? What is that? Out of nowhere?
Somebody decided to throw that in.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
In the eleventh hour on the eleventh day, Right, wasn't
because wait literally right? No, that was a twelfth never mind,
Actually it was the eleventh day. It's two days ago
that they did this, and the only Republicans that were
against it were Ted Cruz, Ran Paul and Thomas Massey.

Speaker 3 (00:43):
They might be the only ones that noticed it, I know.
The others just probably just signed up.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
No, they're the only ones that read the bill. Steve,
you're you're completely right about that. We've made this point
many times.

Speaker 3 (00:54):
Most of them are used to find out what's in
it after we sign it.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
I think moving forward, no, nobody should be allowed to
serve in the Senate or Congress unless you're at least
slightly autistic because you have to read this stuff and
nobody else is willing to do it. No, what else
was buried in there? Ah, there's a provision that says
we get to spank your wife if she wears blue
on a Sunday at nine o'clock. What? What the hell
that was? Huh?

Speaker 2 (01:19):
Well, that one's okay, I'll leave that one in.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
Who wanted this? I don't Not one person was requesting it.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
It's not like goes into effect as of midnight last night.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
Right, it's one year.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
Correct?

Speaker 1 (01:32):
Yeah, a year.

Speaker 3 (01:32):
From now we'll be talking about this and we'll figure out, Yeah,
did they get rid of it? Why did they put
it in the first place?

Speaker 1 (01:40):
Who?

Speaker 2 (01:40):
Who was behind this constructive criticism on himp?

Speaker 1 (01:44):
So we started on the answer to that, and weirdly,
it was the guy who helped construct the farm Bill
in the first place, Mitch McConnell. Mitch McConnell, I have
great regrets about the twenty termed farm bill? What's wrong?

Speaker 2 (01:57):
Mitch?

Speaker 3 (01:57):
The first thing you have to do is follow the money.
How much money was Mitch offered to change his mind
about this?

Speaker 1 (02:03):
Funny you bring that up? Yesterday? I saw a journalist
on x post that he received nine hundred thousand dollars
from the alcohol industry.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Uh huh.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
And you know what's odd about that is that the
low level TCHC products have been keeping a lot of
these little craft breweries alive now that the craft beer
trends kind of peaked to fade. Yeah, there was a
short period there, you know, there were these craft breweries
popping up all over, and then the beer thing got
less popular and people got into bourbon, and then they

(02:31):
got into tequila. I don't know how, and now young
people don't drink at all. So TCHC was actually the
one thing that might have brought a twenty four year
old into the brewery. But don't worry, small business owner,
we found a way to crush your business. Thanks Republicans,
good job. And then it you know, they can't blame

(02:52):
the Democrats for this. The Republicans put it in the bill,
and the only three people smart and autistic enough.

Speaker 3 (03:00):
Notice we're Massy Pollen Cruiz now. And you well, I'm
you noticed this first thing yesterday morning. You were all
over that.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
I look at this stuff the way like down the hall,
people in the sports station, look at statistics, look.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
At those details.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
You know how many times that guy's missed a field
goal on a Thursday night? Right, Oh my god, well
it's Thursday night football. Let's all tune in and see.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
I admire their attention to detail. I just don't care
about that stuff. I just want to watch a game
and have fun. I don't need to know if the
fourth string quarterback has a sprain in his little toe.
I don't care about that. I do care about this. Yeah,
there's a line item on page one hundred that makes it.
Don't worry. We're gonna crush every small business in Middle
America that's selling this stuff.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
I don't worry. It's a year away. A lot of
things can happen in a year.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
You're right about that, Yeah, I mean, because now there'll
be a big fight over this.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
But isn't it weird how one thing cause? Because this
is all because of Obamacare? Or was it? If they
had just agreed to the original bill, would this have
even been in it? If that? You know, in a sense,
it is the Democrats fault in because they wanted something
for free for the illegals, right, that's and for forty
days later, instead of getting that, we crushed craft breweries

(04:15):
that we're trying to make money off THHD.

Speaker 3 (04:17):
What we need to do is round up a bunch
of illegals and get them to all sign a petition
saying they like hemp products, because apparently the government's really
more concerned about taking care of the illegals, So let's
get them on our side.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
All right, Steve, you and I have a very weird
skill set. We're good at noticing what the unintended consequences
will be if unnecessary draconian anti drug laws encourage people
to break the law, which, by the way, this kind
of law breaking does often coincide with illegal immigration. Well,

(04:51):
have we now given the cartels one more incentive to
try to sneak stuff over the border?

Speaker 3 (04:55):
And maybe this thing inserted into the bill had something
to do with Trump blowing up all those Venezuelan boats
that were trying to bring drugs into America. You know,
if you gotta fight drugs out there, you gotta fight
drugs here too. It's kind of a different kind of
drug though, don't you think.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
Yeah, Steve, when I went to bed last night, I
was worried we wouldn't have anything stupid to complain about
this morning. Huh.

Speaker 2 (05:18):
Lucky us. Thursday today is Thursday.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
Good morning, sexy, good morning, wake up and listen up.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
You need some coffee?

Speaker 1 (05:27):
Would you like some more called I don't want to
calls a stampede or revolt, but we don't have any coffee.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
Walton and Johnson.

Speaker 1 (05:35):
More modern versions of this. They changed the lyrics to
Mam Mama's.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
Little Mammy, Mama or Mammy, but in the.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
Old versions it was Mammy, which begs the question, I'm
sure we're all thinking the same thing. Why did mama
remain acceptable but Mammy's not?

Speaker 2 (05:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (05:53):
And what was it about her shortening bread? It was
bringing all the boys to the yard?

Speaker 1 (05:59):
Steven? Is that a euphemism? Well, wait a second, is
basically the milkshake song with Kalise from the nineties is that.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
It's shortening bread.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
Was this the equivalent of that, my shortening bread brings
all the boys to the yard? Mm?

Speaker 1 (06:15):
Or you just blew my mind? I always thought this
was kind of seemingly an innocent, low key racist as
the kids would say, yeah, and now it occurred to me.

Speaker 3 (06:22):
It's way more than that. It's multiple layers. Peel the onion,
and it's early. Your mind's already been blown twice.

Speaker 1 (06:29):
Steve and I learn a lot of stupid things because
we work in this industry, Like, for example, I never
thought that these were the same song. They're the same song.
And while we're on the topic, isn't it weird that
this chick dated Bill Murray?

Speaker 2 (06:40):
It is weird.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
Everything Bill Murray does is a little bit weird. Though
to his credit, thank you Bill for being you.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
And even though that information is barely even useful to us,
what else could anyone do with it? Right on? Some
stupid quizz show that well, you're not smart enough for Jeopardy,
So here's uh, are you dumb enough to be a
two year old Hollywood squares?

Speaker 2 (07:03):
No? No, you don't want.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
That, No, god, no. Oh.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
I don't know why this popped into my head.

Speaker 3 (07:09):
Totally separate issue completely and there's no reason linked the
two stories. But I just heard Jesse Jackson has been hospitalized.
He's eighty four, and I don't know what's draw, you know,
heart problems, maybe he had too many boosters. We don't know,
but we'd hate to lose Jesse at any times. It's

(07:32):
never a good time to lose Jesse.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
It says here that he's still he still lives in Chicago.
You know, it's weird. It was in Chicago. I never
ran into Jesse Jackson out and about it. It's not
like Jesse Jackson was, you know, at the Cubs game
or something. You never really saw him around. Boy, he
looks different. Now they have a recent photo of him
and he looks really really, really really really bad.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
Yeah he is.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
Yeah, Jesse tell us about racism and beer white.

Speaker 4 (08:01):
It's the all time. This whine on black is revolt time.
If it's black on black, wh whye a brown and
brown is middle of time. We have adjusted to it.
A cripman threatenings to the violence that we as a
nation must become more civil and go to the higher ground.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
I know that at the time, a lot of people
use that sound bite against him, but weirdly, he's right
about that.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
Well, that's the way the media looks at things.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
That's kind of a famous SoundBite of Jesse Jackson saying
the media only cares when it's racially charged violence. When
it's white on white or black on black, nobody cares.
And he's right about that. And while that was a
crappy thing to say, and we've used it against him
for years. I don't disagree with him, it's just a
weird way of explaining it. Miller time, right, it's middle time.
It's middle Tom.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
And don't forget we need to find the money to
be able to provide formal a little baby.

Speaker 2 (08:51):
Oh yeah, I forgot about that gottle baby.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
Who is the chick that him and Al Sharpton early
in their career claim got what was she gang raped
by a bunch of whites? And then it turned out
it wasn't.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
Pretty much all on Al Sharpton. There Tawana Brawley in
New York City.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
What happened to her? They later on fire or something.
I WoT nothing.

Speaker 3 (09:07):
Nothing actually happened to hers for as we know, but
what they claimed, right, yeah, she was gang raped out
in the park or something something.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
And then it always reminds me of the Duke lacrosse thing.
For those that don't remember, I don't know. It was
a little over a decade ago at this point. There
was this young woman who was a stripper and she
attended a party professionally for some white college kids on
the lacrosse team at Duke University, and she claimed that
they all raped her, and there wasn't actually any evidence
of this, it was, she said.

Speaker 3 (09:36):
And he said, always always have to believe the victims
in this case.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
Right.

Speaker 1 (09:41):
Well, as they peeled back the onion and started interviewing people,
it became obvious she'd made up the story. And then
it became real obvious, and then there were people that
admitted that she made up the story, and then she
murdered someone, and now she's in prison.

Speaker 3 (09:51):
And al Sharpton was behind all of that whole made
up story stuff to promote that, to help push the agenda.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
One of the worst people on earth, they are women
that make false accusations of rape. Because when you do that,
you're doing two things. Number One, you're hurting an innocent person,
right and let's say hypothetically people believe you, you'd be
ruining their life. That makes you a horrible person. But similarly,
it gets a little more complicated here because as you
do that, you marginalize the accusations against people that were

(10:20):
actually raped. Now, now, if someone actually gets raped, no
one's gonna believe them because there's so many people like
you out there doing this. And that brings us to
what happened yesterday with Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein. The
Democrats took some old files and redacted everything in it
to make it look like Donald Trump had some direct
connection to Epstein and he knew about the little girls

(10:41):
getting raped and this and that. And it's like, wait
a second, this is information that had already been out
there for a long time, and you guys pulled information
out of the report to change the context of it.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
Well, it's kind of like what the BBC did with
Trump's speech on January sixth. We'd like it to say
something he didn't say, so we'll just rearrange his words
a little bit.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
That's how they'll do you.

Speaker 1 (11:05):
You know, I don't get real biblical with you guys
on the radio very often, but there is stuff in
the Bible explaining how this is just terrible, you know,
accusing people of things they didn't do wrong. It's over
and over in the Bible. This stuff is because it's
basically what they did to Jesus. I mean, that was
the whole point of the book. Now I understand these
aren't Christian biblical people, but good Lord, these lessons in

(11:26):
the Bible have existed for thousands of years. Why are
we well, isn't there.

Speaker 3 (11:30):
Something in the Bible about not enjoying hilp or hilt
based product. We can find it if we need to, Ralph,
let's get that out of the hands of the people.

Speaker 1 (11:43):
Yeah, yeah, Steve, there probably is something in Believe me,
there's a lot of stuff in that book.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
There's something in the Bible for everybody, because you can
find a way to twist it to your own needs.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
One of the most frustrating thing about living in the
little world that Steve and I live in is we
always encounter these problems. We stumble upon them, and I
feel like we do a good job of explaining them,
solving them, fixing, coming up with the solution, and then
a month later the same thing happens again. We're right
back where we started.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
So we didn't really solve anything, did we.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
It's very upsetting. It's like, what keeps us coming back
to work? Abortion again? We already solved abortion. That was
on last year's show. Yeah, what war in the Mid East?
We took care of that, we wrote.

Speaker 3 (12:21):
I think a lot of people, even if they are listening,
a lot of people don't do what we say, and
that could be very frustrating. When you come up with
the brilliant ideas on how to save the country and
sometimes the world from itself, really, and then people just
don't do what we say.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
A couple of I mean several weeks ago at this point,
maybe even a couple months ago, there was an incident
here in our community where some fully grown adults tried
to stop some high school kids from starting a Turning
Point USA chapter. It's called Club America when it's in
a high school, and in doing so, they made that
one of the Not only did it, could they not
stop it? You can't stop high school kids from hanging
out after school and talking about politics. It's the America.

(13:00):
Not only did they not stop it, they made it
into one of the biggest Club America groups in the country.
And now weeks later we learned that Cedar Ridge High
School in Round Rock, ID is reportedly blocking students from
opening a TPUSA club. And again I ask you, didn't
we already solved this problem. We had a massive rally.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
They're not paying attention and they're not doing what we say.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
We got together with the Attorney General, you know, we
put the teenagers on the radio. They were the Houston
Chronicle was asking them to submit op eds on their
beliefs and opinions, and it's like the next thing, you know,
here we are again in some other part of the state.
Don't these people watch the news?

Speaker 2 (13:38):
Apparently not.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
Apparently they don't subscribe to the podcast. Today's show is
sponsored by Throwback Thursday. Remember when you could go out
drinking on a Thursday and still make it to work
on Friday.
