Speaker 1 (00:00):
Every morning here before Stephen Johnson and I. I never
call you Stephen, No, most people don't. There's a woman
in your life who does. She's very beautiful and classy
and sophisticated. Yeah, she reads my mail. I think some
of my male has Steven on it.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
She's seen your credit cards. Yes.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Anyway, Steve and I every morning we peruse the news,
right we really take a deep dive into foreign and
domestic and conservative and liberal.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
And local and national.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
And as we're doing it on a TV in the background,
we have a couple.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
Things going on.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Here's the news, usually national political, but sometimes national financial
happens to be on right now. And then on another
TV we're watching viral videos. And this morning we watched
a lot of them as we try to cram a
lot of information into our brain in the period of
about ninety to thirty minutes, depending on how much time
(00:51):
we have. And today we watched, among other things, a
famous porn star who plays video games for a living,
which we should be pe tsd on military.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Veterans, so sweet.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
And then and then we watched a bunch of rapper
junkies do a disc track on her, and we thought
that's weird that we agree with the face tattoo guys.
I'm not sure I want to be on their side,
but I don't want to be on hers. And anyway,
at some point we go from that to this and
RFK Junior defunding vaccines, and then finally we ended up
(01:24):
on a video where there's a young woman in a car.
Looks like she's in her mid to late twenties. Not
a kid, but younger than us. It's almost like interesting, unrelated,
but is interesting how half her body's covered in tattoos
and the other half's not. Like this half was gonna
work as a barista and that half was going to
work in a cubicle.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
She's probably not done yet. Tattoos cost money, Kenny. Did
you give her money for tattoos yet?
Speaker 2 (01:50):
I did not?
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Well, she wants your money.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Again, unrelated, but can't help.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
But notice she's in a car with black leather seats,
designer sunglasses. I don't mean to straight away from the point,
but she's crying her eyes out in the video.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
What is her situation? Said?
Speaker 1 (02:05):
She's been paying fifteen hundred dollars a month for student
loans for the last couple of years and at a
seventeen percent interest rate, she now owes more than she
did when she started paying the loans off.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Uh huh, she'd go down to one of the local
banks and get that loan. Well, Steve, that's a great question. Yes,
seventeen percent is pretty high.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
I remember back at the beginning of the Biden administration,
the liberals were all gung ho about trying to go
after banks for student loans. It was almost like they
forgot that. They took the student loans away from the
banks and they gave it to the federal government.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
And what's the federal government doing about this?
Speaker 2 (02:44):
The federal government. And that's what's so interesting about this.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
The federal government is giving young Americans with a twinkle
in their eye and aspirations for fine careers, what we
would probably describe as predatory loans if the loan were
coming from private banks.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
That's your good them.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Let it work.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
And I just find that fascinating. The government is giving
out predatory loans. But did in the government also say
don't pay them back?
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Right?
Speaker 1 (03:14):
A lot of mixed messaging here, right is you really
got to wonder now, My advice to her was you
should just marry a popular morning radio show host and
have him pay off your loans and then mysteriously leave
him one day. And yeah, well that happened to a
guy that we know. But for this young woman, without
even knowing it, we were trying to figure out what
her life must be like, what does she do for
(03:36):
a living? And I guess probably she's cute, but probably
not only fans.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Or she wouldn't Yeah, she'd have money.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Right, and she probably wouldn't be crying. She'd be on
too many drugs, probably have an abusive boyfriend and a
black eye. I know that's not fun, but let's be
honest here, he's probably would settle down, honey, hit that pipe.
We just find it fascinating that as much as the
liberals hate private industry, as much as they hate the
world of a private bank or free market capitalism, is
(04:03):
as dependent as they want to be on the government,
it is now the government that has created the predatory
institutions that they cry and complain about.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
They've given out loans for your benefit. By the way,
you got for their benefit.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
You had a seventeen percent interest rate on a student loan.
I'm gonna guess just climb out on a limb. Here,
she didn't major in engineering or stem jobs or medical
stuff or take another look.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
At her real huh?
Speaker 2 (04:29):
No, would you study young lady like broadcasting?
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Hell, I don't think she took cosmetology either.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Now, while she's crying in the vigin gender lit, what'd
you study English poetry for in seventeenth century French LGBTQ
friendly poetry.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Look at you, Kenny, You're already flirting with her. You
just can't help yourself, can you.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Well?
Speaker 3 (04:53):
I mean, Jesus meant to be for you, but you
can fix her.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
I don't think I can. I find I just look,
I'm trying to do a victory lap here or anything.
But liberals wanted this. Liberals wanted the government to handle
this stuff, and now the government handles almost all.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Do you remember Maxine Waters.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Maxine Waters in twenty twenty one took over as the
chair of the House Financial Committee. This is a lawmaker
from la whose constituents are so disgusting and gross she
doesn't even want to live in her district, which by
the way.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Is skid Row. You remember the band from the eighties.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
They named their band after the horrible neighborhood that choose
the lawmaker.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Of and they weren't nasty enough to live up to
the name.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Right they weren't.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Yeah, they don't live in skid row either, And Maxine
Waters dragged all the bank executives out in front of
the Financial chair Committee.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Were going to really give these guys af finger with.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
She was going to chastise them, call them out and
embarrass them.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Maxine Waters had forgotten that a decade earlier, most student
loans and I know this doesn't describe everything, as we're
speaking broad generalities here, but most student loans were now
hand the government, not by private banks, thank you.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
Today there are more than forty four million Americans that, oh,
this is student loan crisis, one point five to six
trillion in student loan debt. Last month, this committee received
testimony that last year one million student loan barriers defaulted,
which is on top of the one million barriers who
defaulted the year before. What are you guys doing to
help us with the student loan debt? Who would like
(06:24):
to answer first?
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Uh, oh, mister Monahan, big bank, give it to him.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
We stopped making student loans in two thousand and seven
or so.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Oh, so you don't do it anymore, mister Carbett, Oh yeah,
we actually did student lending in two thousand and nine, oh,
mister diamond, and.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
The government took over student lending in twenty ten or so,
we stopped doing all student leth Well.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
This guy, this guy, thank you?
Speaker 3 (06:44):
What about small business?
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Oh no, we're dying. Okay, Yeah, she had to move on.
I thought that was going to be a boy. I
thought she was really going to give it to him.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
She embarrassed somebody, didn't she.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
If you're sitting out there wondering if this is what
the show is going to be about today, it's not.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Actually, this isn't even a new story.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
It's just a thing we noticed as we were getting
ready to do the show.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
There are some interesting news stalkers in the news. This morning,
we'll have more about stalking people.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Also, why'd you look at me like that when you said.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
The tsunami is coming to the west coast, hurricane coming
to the East coast.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Looks like the place to be is the American coast.
Oh I prefer it. Yeah, Thursday today, East Thursday.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
Good morning, sexye, good morning, wake up and listen up.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I'm gonna need some coffee. Would you like some more called?
Speaker 1 (07:33):
I don't want to call a stampede or revolt, but
we don't have any coffee Walton and Johnson. When I
was a little kid, I always thought this was Tom Petty.
And then when I became a teenager, I figured out
Tom Petty and the Dire Straits and Bob Dylan were
three different guys. In my defense, I was nine ten,
I didn't really know.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
You know, you call them the Dire Streets, fair fair.
I just wondered if that's what you how you did
it in your household?
Speaker 2 (08:01):
I get it.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
I hate when people call them the talking heads. It's
just talking heads, dude. Is it not the Rolling Stones
or is it just Rolling Stones?
Speaker 2 (08:09):
I actually don't know, now that you mention it. I
hope we don't get in trouble.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
It's not the Nirvana, it's not the pro No, I
get it.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
It's not the Pearl Jam.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
I have been watching the New King of the Hill
and I won't ruin it for you, but you know,
Tom Patty is not alive anymore spoiler alert. And Mike
Judge is using his music in the show. And that
just to me because I know they were buddies. Ooh,
that hit get hit in the fields. It really did,
it was like, oh man, because it's little things in
the show they've done. The new King of the Hill
(08:39):
is really good. I mean, it does not disappoint. Maybe
it's just because I wanted to see it so badly, but.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
You've been waiting so long. Anticipation bills Oh well.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Normally, when you want to watch something and then it
comes out, like Star Wars, it's not good, but you
want it to be good, but it's not.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
But I kind of sit there and give it a
pass sometimes. But this actually is pretty good.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
And there's a few moments on the show where he
sprinkles in the.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Music of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
You're like, oh man, this was already good, and then
it occurred to me what the music was.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
I don't think he ruined the show for anybody, though, congratulations.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
I'm trying not to, you know. It's a rare moment.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Kenny lived up to his billing of I'm not gonna
spoil it for you.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
One time, six years ago, I explained how an Avengers
movie from two years earlier ended that was based vividly
based on a twenty year old comic book.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
So defensive. Listen to his tone, so with the tone, sir.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
And then we started getting angry emails, and Steve, who
knew the emails were kind of ridiculous, was like, Kenny,
how could you?
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Oh my god, I can't believe you did something like that.
Nobody's ruined a movie a plotline better than John Walton.
Many years ago, the new series of Star Wars has
come out, you know, and there was a scene late
in the movie where I think it was Dooku and
(10:02):
uh Yoda, Yeah, ended up having a fight and there
you know, they're the big bosses, they're the high end
stuff there, Yeah, the forest, right, And so John comes
back first night it was out, just for everybody that
hadn't seen it yet. On day one, Uh, he just
was like, hell, I had no idea Yoda could fly.
We're like, what, Billy had really lost it. He's like, yeah, Yoda,
(10:26):
Yoda can fly. Did you know that? That was a
big moment in the movie. You're looks like Yoda's getting
his ass kicked, and all of a sudden, he starts,
you know, like buzzing around like a bumblebee or something.
But it was pretty funny because when it's when I
went to see the movie later, He's like, oh, here
comes to the scene, here, here goes, watch him, watch
(10:47):
him big supre you know Yoda's gonna Well, I don't
want to spoil it.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
For you, but you know it was already spoiled for
me in John and Billy Ede's defense in the original movies,
he did pull a spaceship up out of the swamp.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Yeah, so the fact that he could make himself fly
isn't my it. We never saw that. You never saw it.
I get it. Yeah, I understand.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
It's an interesting headline today from the fifth or sixth
most popular network TV station in our city. And for
those that are new to the show, we're in Houston.
And if you're wondering who John is, he's the brilliant
guy who created this radio show many years ago, about
forty years ago.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Names on the sign out front. Yeah, probably saw it
coming in.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Moose outit had told you anyway, as a local TV network,
here reporting on how you should be afraid of the
Trump administration. And here's their headline. Health Secretary Robert F.
Kennedy Junior's decision this week to cancel hundreds of millions
of dollars in.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
mRNA vaccine funding.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
We'll leave the United States unprepared for the next pandemic,
and I just got to say that is fantastic news.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Thank you, sir, appreciate you.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
I'm one of those guys that calls balls and strikes.
Most people listen to this show, our afternoon show. No,
I'm happy to criticize Trump when he does something I
don't like. Cutting off funding to a vaccine that didn't
do anything to help out with the last pandemic much
basically spread myocarditis, did nothing to stop the spread of
the virus is one of the best.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Things that Trump administration's done so far.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
The other thing I really enjoyed this week is Trump
going after the banks. I really like this, and you'd
think liberals would enjoy this too. We're punishing banks for
discriminating against people. You're a bank, you shouldn't be allowed
to cut off someone's access to their bank account because
you didn't like their tweets or the fact that they
went to a Catholic church, or the fact that they
attended a gun show.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Or that they're pretty and they happy to be married
to Donald Trump exactly. But if it can happen to Milannia,
it can happen to you.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Well.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
We know people that happened. It wasn't just Milania and
Alex Jones. Look, I'm all for a free market, but
some bank ceo getting bribed by a political lobbyist to
cut off access to podcasts money isn't exactly the free market.
That sounds like a pretty rigged chrony system to me.
This there probably should be a law that says you
(13:08):
can't cut off access to someone's bank account just because
you don't like their politics.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
That sounds like theft. That sounds like it should be illegal.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
And to chat with talked us over with that Mandami
character up in New York. Maybe the two you can
put your hits together come up with a solution for this.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
I feel like he does not agree with us.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
I'm thinking, you know, you got to take both sides
into accounts. So fair.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Okay, everyone gather around. What day?
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Well, let's see, it's Thursday, right.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
Well, it's only the best day of the year.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Wilton and Johnson Radio Network
Every morning here before Stephen Johnson and I. I never

Speaker 2 (07:10):
Also, why'd you look at me like that when you said.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
The tsunami is coming to the west coast, hurricane coming
to the East coast.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Looks like the place to be is the American coast.
Oh I prefer it. Yeah, Thursday today, East Thursday.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
Good morning, sexye, good morning, wake up and listen up.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I'm gonna need some coffee. Would you like some more called?
Speaker 1 (07:33):
I don't want to call a stampede or revolt, but
we don't have any coffee Walton and Johnson. When I
was a little kid, I always thought this was Tom Petty.
And then when I became a teenager, I figured out
Tom Petty and the Dire Straits and Bob Dylan were
three different guys. In my defense, I was nine ten,
I didn't really know.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
You know, you call them the Dire Streets, fair fair.
I just wondered if that's what you how you did
it in your household?
Speaker 2 (08:01):
I get it.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
I hate when people call them the talking heads. It's
just talking heads, dude. Is it not the Rolling Stones
or is it just Rolling Stones?
Speaker 2 (08:09):
I actually don't know, now that you mention it. I
hope we don't get in trouble.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
It's not the Nirvana, it's not the pro No, I
get it.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
It's not the Pearl Jam.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
I have been watching the New King of the Hill
and I won't ruin it for you, but you know,
Tom Patty is not alive anymore spoiler alert. And Mike
Judge is using his music in the show. And that
just to me because I know they were buddies. Ooh,
that hit get hit in the fields. It really did,
it was like, oh man, because it's little things in
the show they've done. The new King of the Hill
(08:39):
is really good. I mean, it does not disappoint. Maybe
it's just because I wanted to see it so badly, but.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
You've been waiting so long. Anticipation bills Oh well.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Normally, when you want to watch something and then it
comes out, like Star Wars, it's not good, but you
want it to be good, but it's not.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
But I kind of sit there and give it a
pass sometimes. But this actually is pretty good.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
And there's a few moments on the show where he
sprinkles in the.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Music of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
You're like, oh man, this was already good, and then
it occurred to me what the music was.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
I don't think he ruined the show for anybody, though, congratulations.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
I'm trying not to, you know. It's a rare moment.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Kenny lived up to his billing of I'm not gonna
spoil it for you.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
One time, six years ago, I explained how an Avengers
movie from two years earlier ended that was based vividly
based on a twenty year old comic book.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
So defensive. Listen to his tone, so with the tone, sir.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
And then we started getting angry emails, and Steve, who
knew the emails were kind of ridiculous, was like, Kenny,
how could you?
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Oh my god, I can't believe you did something like that.
Nobody's ruined a movie a plotline better than John Walton.
Many years ago, the new series of Star Wars has
come out, you know, and there was a scene late
in the movie where I think it was Dooku and
(10:02):
uh Yoda, Yeah, ended up having a fight and there
you know, they're the big bosses, they're the high end
stuff there, Yeah, the forest, right, And so John comes
back first night it was out, just for everybody that
hadn't seen it yet. On day one, Uh, he just
was like, hell, I had no idea Yoda could fly.
We're like, what, Billy had really lost it. He's like, yeah, Yoda,
(10:26):
Yoda can fly. Did you know that? That was a
big moment in the movie. You're looks like Yoda's getting
his ass kicked, and all of a sudden, he starts,
you know, like buzzing around like a bumblebee or something.
But it was pretty funny because when it's when I
went to see the movie later, He's like, oh, here
comes to the scene, here, here goes, watch him, watch
(10:47):
him big supre you know Yoda's gonna Well, I don't
want to spoil it.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
For you, but you know it was already spoiled for
me in John and Billy Ede's defense in the original movies,
he did pull a spaceship up out of the swamp.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Yeah, so the fact that he could make himself fly
isn't my it. We never saw that. You never saw it.
I get it. Yeah, I understand.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
It's an interesting headline today from the fifth or sixth
most popular network TV station in our city. And for
those that are new to the show, we're in Houston.
And if you're wondering who John is, he's the brilliant
guy who created this radio show many years ago, about
forty years ago.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Names on the sign out front. Yeah, probably saw it
coming in.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Moose outit had told you anyway, as a local TV network,
here reporting on how you should be afraid of the
Trump administration. And here's their headline. Health Secretary Robert F.
Kennedy Junior's decision this week to cancel hundreds of millions
of dollars in.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
mRNA vaccine funding.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
We'll leave the United States unprepared for the next pandemic,
and I just got to say that is fantastic news.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Thank you, sir, appreciate you.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
I'm one of those guys that calls balls and strikes.
Most people listen to this show, our afternoon show. No,
I'm happy to criticize Trump when he does something I
don't like. Cutting off funding to a vaccine that didn't
do anything to help out with the last pandemic much
basically spread myocarditis, did nothing to stop the spread of
the virus is one of the best.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Things that Trump administration's done so far.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
The other thing I really enjoyed this week is Trump
going after the banks. I really like this, and you'd
think liberals would enjoy this too. We're punishing banks for
discriminating against people. You're a bank, you shouldn't be allowed
to cut off someone's access to their bank account because
you didn't like their tweets or the fact that they
went to a Catholic church, or the fact that they
attended a gun show.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Or that they're pretty and they happy to be married
to Donald Trump exactly. But if it can happen to Milannia,
it can happen to you.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Well.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
We know people that happened. It wasn't just Milania and
Alex Jones. Look, I'm all for a free market, but
some bank ceo getting bribed by a political lobbyist to
cut off access to podcasts money isn't exactly the free market.
That sounds like a pretty rigged chrony system to me.
This there probably should be a law that says you
(13:08):
can't cut off access to someone's bank account just because
you don't like their politics.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
That sounds like theft. That sounds like it should be illegal.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
And to chat with talked us over with that Mandami
character up in New York. Maybe the two you can
put your hits together come up with a solution for this.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
I feel like he does not agree with us.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
I'm thinking, you know, you got to take both sides
into accounts. So fair.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Okay, everyone gather around. What day?
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Well, let's see, it's Thursday, right.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
Well, it's only the best day of the year.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
