It was nineteen thirty four. Wow, a long time ago. Yeah,
fun fact.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
The Yankees was named after what Babe Ruth liked to
do before each game when he was alone in the
locker room. A right, Yeah, it relaxed him. Yeah, it
helped him calm down and prepare for the game. That's true. Yeah, absolutely, Yeah, Okay,
I got a few here. Let's start off with this
we're doing today in history Today, in nineteen sixty two,
Lincoln suspends the writ of habeas corpus.

Speaker 2 (05:38):

does say nineteen sixties. How did Lincoln do.

Today.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
In nineteen sixty four, the Monsters Billy Ed Yeah a
good show premiered on TV Today in nineteen sixty eight,
the very first episode is sixty minutes aired on CBS.
They've always done that, right, that's stop watch. Yeah, yeah,
timing them today. In nineteen seventy, the Soviets unmanned craft
Luna sixteen landed on the Moon.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
Oh did it? Well, that's what they claim. Yeah, prove
it and then it returned to Earth or so they
said it did it? Yeah? I wonder. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
I'm not emotionally invested to that. Sure, maybe the Soviets dead.
We I'll tell you what. Anybody listening to this show
that doesn't believe the moon landing's fake, call the show
right now and fight me eight six six I love
w J anybody that doesn't believe it's fake. Anybody that
does believe it's fake. No, you're right, it didn't come
out of my mouth, right, You trends those to your negatives.
I have this argument with my buddy Josh all the time.

(07:04):
I'm like, what makes you think that's fake? Flatter boy?

Speaker 2 (07:06):
He's like, look at the look at the footage, And
I'm like, well what about it?

Speaker 1 (07:09):
He's like, it didn't age well, age well compared to
what other footage from the moon.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
What are you talking about?

Speaker 1 (07:14):
Look back through your parents' photo albums from Oh, I
don't know.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
The sixties.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
You know those little albums where you got the corners
of the picture all held in by those little little
white or black corner holders.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
There.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
Those pictures didn't age well either, No, they did not
look who's in them?

Speaker 4 (07:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (07:32):
You didn't age well either?

Speaker 4 (07:33):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (07:33):
What do you think you were?

Speaker 4 (07:34):
Fake?

Speaker 2 (07:34):
All right, Billy, I got an important news story for you.
I know you've been worried about. But it's the one
full of the money for the show to get it read.
And don't you step one in bluechoye cheese.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
Even I will admit, when this news story first surfaced
about somebody trying to steal Graceland, I had at the
time thought that just like Lisa Marie Presley was crazy
or something, did I do that thing that I've keep
getting worn about. Then somebody will just steal the title.
They'll go in and uh, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (08:05):
Do they title?

Speaker 2 (08:06):
You know title lock commercials?

Speaker 5 (08:08):
Right?

Speaker 1 (08:08):
They want you to buy that so nobody will steal
your house. I always thought that was the stupidest TV commercial.
I'm like, how are they going to steal your house? Well,
they do the paperwork and then by the time they
figured it out, it's too late.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
It can't have it back. If you figured it out,
they're not gonna take her. If they figured out my
bike was stolen, then give me my bike back. You're
telling me I can't get the house. That's to night.
Gotta you gotta buy the product. Okay.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
So the Missouri woman responsible for that, she got sentenced
yesterday no more than four years in prison for what
is called a brazen and blundering attempt to steal Graceland.
Brazen A tip, yeah, from the family of Elvis Presley.
The woman's name is Lisa Janine Findley. She's fifty four
years young. She has gone by many other names in
a criminal career spattered with financial grifts. Anytime you meet

(08:54):
somebody who has a lot of aliases, be suspicious, especially
if it's a political cam.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
But that's unrelated to what we're talking about. You do
know people like that though, right? Oh yeah, a couple.

Speaker 4 (09:04):
I oh, he did several level.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
I exposed, thank you.

Speaker 1 (09:07):
I exposed a politician earlier this year, Yes, who had
not one, but nine aliases, and her supporters still think
I'm bullying her.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
Yeah, and't that mean anyway?

Speaker 1 (09:17):
But back to this woman who stole Graceland, she's accused
of posing as a bogus investor claiming rights to the
historical land mark that draws more than half a million
visitors a year. Presley lived in the memphisis State until
he suffered a fatal heart attack in nineteen seventy seven.
Another way to explain that would be he pooped himself
to death. That's right, kids, Uh, don't push so hard,

(09:38):
let it, let it just fall out natural. Of course,
his his was backed up because he had impacted his
backside with some quick creep basically with some what billiot
it was. It was stopped up. It wasn't gonna come out.
I thought you called it quick creep crete crete? What's
the creed? It's so sad that you don't know what
that is like that, But we don't have time for

(09:59):
all of that. That's the redneck stuff. You were going
to explain to us why Tim Scott. You said something
kind of negative about Tim, linking him with the undesirable
John Cornyn Okay, yeah, did someone ask in an email
is that with this al from Lafayette? Okay, Well, to
understand Tim Scott, you have to hear first understand where

(10:19):
he's from. He is from the old school Republican Party.
Tim Scott is this guy who never any kids. He's
a closeted homosexual, kind of like Lindsey Graham. Now that's
not why I dislike him. I'm not a problem.

Speaker 3 (10:31):
No.

Speaker 1 (10:31):
Tim Scott is another one of these guys like John Cornyn.
He'll vote for any swampy bill anything. Joe Biden was
supporting any They're like, oh, he votes with Trump. Yeah,
but he voted with Joe too. That's that's the.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
Problem with the out right exactly.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
Tim Scott is somebody who will do anything he can
to stop the MAGA movement.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
He has not been supportive of it. He'd like John Cornyn.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
He tried to switch guards halfway through during what was
the best part of the story arc right after Donald
Trump lost in twenty twenty quote unquo lost. Tim Scott
was another one of these guys who tried to get
the party to move towards a new candidate.

Speaker 2 (11:05):
Votes on any swampy bill.

Speaker 1 (11:07):
Neocon supports the world Police, pretends to be something he's not.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
And by the way, just look at him. Also, have
you seen look at it? Have you seen the guy? Yeah,
and explains it. It's not really in the face I
have a problem With's just so we're clear here. That's funny.
Well and Johnson Show will be right back.

Speaker 1 (11:27):
Really inspiring story today about in Ohio nun. I love
an Ohio nun celebrating her one hundred and fifth birthday
with a round of my favorite golf, sport, sport, golf,
your favorite sport. Yeah, Catholic non in Ohio turns one
hundred and five, and she decided to hit the links.
Sister Renee Parman and her cohorts from Humility of Mary

(11:49):
visited the Null Run golf Course in Lowellville on Friday
two days Lowell l O W E LB. I think
I said that right, but probably Dolvill Lowell, Lowell, Lowell.
And anyway, two days before her one hundred fifth birthday,
she went out, she hit the links, and apparently they
kicked her off the golf course. They said she had

(12:09):
a little too much to drink. She kept pinching the
butts of the beer girls. They said, get her out
of here. She just had a good time. You know,
nuns don't get to bust out like other people do.
So cut her some slack man.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
Yeah about that, and I bet she is excited she's
gonna see Jesus soon.

Speaker 4 (12:24):
Well we all aren't.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
Maybe not as soon as her.

Speaker 4 (12:27):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
You know, she could outlive all of us, because somebody
could come in here in the next twenty minutes and
just like.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
Mow us all down.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
And meanwhile, in the in the state of New Jersey,
the Yogi bearra Museum it ate over until it's over
and Learning Center in New Jersey gathered twenty three hundred
and fifty eight people to play catch and break a
Guinness World record. The Sunday event at Yogi Bear Stadium
in Little Falls officially broke the record for the largest
game of catch, with twenty three hundred and fifty eight

(12:57):
people splitting off into pairs to.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
Throw baseballs back for it.

Speaker 1 (13:00):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
Yeah, that's fun. That's something.

Speaker 4 (13:03):
You know.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
What is the world's.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
Largest game of Oh? Damn lawn darts? Know the frisbee?
Know the thing where you try to get your thing
to go in the hole?

Speaker 2 (13:16):
Oh the sex Let him explain it more. I want
to hear his description. Golf.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
No, Well, that that is putting your thing in the hole. Uhang,
you throw the bean bag into the thing and you toss.
It's about cornhole cornhole there you go. I hate to
say that cornhole and thing. In some parts of the
country they call it bags because that ain't much better. Yeah, well,
speaking of sports and what have you, it's not sports there.

Speaker 2 (13:43):
Well, yeah, it is a sport.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
There's a robot revolution coming and apparently it is affecting
America's pastime.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
Baseball. Still right, robot umpires, what do you think, mister oo?
Are you for it? Are you against it? It don't
matter what they gonna do it anyway.

Speaker 1 (14:00):
Major League Baseball will implement a challenge system for balls
and strengths in the twenty and twenty sixth season, after
the league's Competition Committee voted Tuesday.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
Are sure in the era of robot.

Speaker 1 (14:09):
Umpires, they do that thing where they put the square
on the TV screen and the baseball, the players and
the umpires they can't see that square, but they can
go back and look at it like an intule.

Speaker 4 (14:20):
Replay, you know, put the square up there and if
the ball.

Speaker 1 (14:23):
They do that in tennis, you know, if the ball
even touches a little little edge of the little white
line there, then is considered in because they can't decide
whether it was fifty percent or more of the ball in.

Speaker 4 (14:40):
So they just go with anything.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
Yeah, I mean they did it in tennis, but what
about a real sport like baseball?

Speaker 1 (14:45):
Corn Hall, Now they put a clock on the pitcher
to speed the game up, and now they're gonna do
this to slow the game down because batter's gonna sit
there and go, oh, hell no, that wasn't a strike.
You know the manager, you're gonna come out and talk
to UMPI I got a call radio. Somebody take a

(15:06):
look at the screen and see if the ball was
inside the square. And then they go slowly everything down. Hitters, pictures,
and catchers will be the only ones allowed to trigger
the system by tapping their head, and if a challenge
is successful, the pitch will be shown on in stadium
video boards and the teams will retain it and the
people will get to see it. The fans they'll be
they'll be watching. I guess something. You get to boo

(15:27):
or cheer, depending on your team you're pulling for. What
if you tap your head by accident or I get
an itch, or there was like a bug landed on
you or something right, ah, get a horse fly on you?

Speaker 4 (15:38):
Man?

Speaker 2 (15:38):
Named horse flies will hurt too. They get on you. Yeah,
why are they so painful? What's up with that?

Speaker 1 (15:44):
They had their big old flies. They they'll bother a
horse for sure, see and ended. The funniest thing, they
have a warning for pregnant people about tail and all.
It's right here on their website, what pregnant people should
know about seed of metaphin. That was probably before Trump's
people made an announcement, because now that Trump says don't
do it, I'm sure CNN is telling you you should.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
I haven't read the article.

Speaker 1 (16:08):
I just thought it was funny that the headline says
pregnant people, and then it's right in the first sentence here.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
Yeah, not pregnant women, because pregnant men shouldn't take it either.

Speaker 1 (16:19):
Right. Well, we were wondering what about pregnant men. They
didn't tell us that was really offensive. Hmmmm mmmm, Well
now we're covered.

Speaker 2 (16:26):
China is showing off a new stealth fighter. They got
nothing known us.

Speaker 1 (16:31):
Why we got the F forty seven coming out. I
thought you were excited about the F sixteen at F
sixteen's old news. Now I mean we got F thirty
five's already. The F forty seven is underweight. Manufacturing has begun.
The latest and the greatest in the stealth fighter world.
But it won't be out for about three years. I
hope the China starts up between now and in. But

(16:54):
didn't you say that if you ever stealing F sixteen,
you're supposed to listen to this song.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
Oh well, yeah, when it you can't steal it?

Speaker 4 (17:02):
How do I start at F sixteen? They're hard to start,
real I stole an F sixteen.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
Flip the master, all the lights begin to feel.

Speaker 4 (17:11):
I stole at F six.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
You got to flip master.

Speaker 4 (17:13):
Switch sure the fuel pumps start the number two.

Speaker 5 (17:17):
I stall and F sixteen's whining as the turbine show.
I stall and F sixteen turn the are power on
right Ill.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
This is hawfully specific, Bill. Yeah, they're really explaining, Yes,
they are the lyrics. They're really explaining what to do
if you ever steal a F sixteen. Yep, until you
look at us at forty seven and then tell me
that ain't cool. That is bad as cool at their
air power superiority in the sky. Okay, but there is
there a song that I'll explain how to fly it
if you ever steal No, probably not, as a matter

(17:51):
of fact. Everything about it, other than maybe like it's speed.
It was pretty much classified. They're not telling you too much.
But it will hit Mack two and that's over fifteen
one hundred miles an hour. What's fastest you've ever gone?

(18:12):
I mean in a jet I'll be probably only fourteen
hundred miles proud. Yeah, so this will be faster.

Speaker 2 (18:16):
All right.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
Well that's exciting. Yeah all right, But what if you
go back in time. I didn't tell you the coolest part?
Oh okay, the F forty seven?

Speaker 4 (18:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (18:24):
Why didy jump from thirty five to forty seven? You say?
I can't wait to find out? Two good reasons.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
First, the Air Force was created in nineteen anybody forty
what forty seven?

Speaker 2 (18:39):
Nineteen forty They didn't have it for World War One?
What about the Civil War? What about World War two?

Speaker 4 (18:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (18:44):
Well what about the Revolutionary War? That's when they could
have used it the most.

Speaker 1 (18:47):
The Air Force didn't exist until after World War Two?
Nineteen forty seven. Unbelievable, and even better, they also named
it the F forty seven after.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
Seventh President of the United States? Is that really?

Speaker 4 (19:03):
Why? It? Is?

Speaker 1 (19:04):
That just what people are saying, because Donald Trump was
responsible for supporting it and getting it to start being manufactured.

Speaker 2 (19:12):
Here's what I want to know.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
If we're changing the name of the Department of Defense
back to the Department of War, what's to stop us
from changing the name of the United States Air Force
back to the US Army Air Corps.

Speaker 2 (19:22):
Oh, the Air Corps.

Speaker 1 (19:23):
Well, that was formed in nineteen twenty six, which then
evolved into the US Army Air Forces in nineteen forty one,
before ultimately becoming a separate branch in nineteen forty seven.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
And there you go.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
Yeah, and Trump what they called pivotal support from Donald
Trump in developing the world's first sixth generation fighter.

Speaker 2 (19:42):
Remember in Maverick, Do I remember Maverick the sequel?

Speaker 1 (19:46):
Remember he was flying when I'm old, like first gin fighters,
and then he had to jump up in the air
and try to take on the new you know, the
next generation. Whooa, he almost got What did I thing
to do him? But there, man, that was a good movie.
You remember when he's flying in any of the guns
he was like.

Speaker 4 (20:06):
And then.

Speaker 2 (20:09):
And he went upside down.

Speaker 1 (20:10):
Yeah, and he gave him the middle finger and drank
a PEPSI Yeah, that shot the bird. Yeah, I think
it was a mountain dew. But otherwise, I think your
memory serves you correctly. Yeah, you guys are all wrong,
all right. But what if you could go back in
time and you were a liberal, would you kill Hitler?

Speaker 3 (20:25):
I'm a time traveler from the year twenty twenty five,
and I've come here to kill you Hitler. Soon we
will be able to take back the White House, and
we will be able to use the government to force
people to follow our great ideas. You want to use
government power to force your ideas on the populace, me too.

Speaker 4 (20:45):
You and I have nothing in common.

Speaker 3 (20:47):
I'm saying is there are people an our time with
dangerous ideas, and we need to silence.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Them, silence things those who disagree with as you. I
do that too, our Vundebah.

Speaker 3 (21:00):
What I'm trying to say is we are very close
to implementing a utopia as long as we can get
rid of some certain undesirable people.

Speaker 4 (21:08):
Growers, yes, likes the jew
