Speaker 1 (00:00):
Mtvs reportedly shutting down their music channels after four decades.
The end of an era has arrived.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
MTV still played music. I hadn't seen it in years.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
Apparently they have multiple mtvs. There's MTV, MTV two, MTV Live,
MTV Classic, MTV Eighties, MTV nineties with yeah, yeah, forty classic,
don't forget to classic, that's correct, yeah, four decades after
the revolutionary station aired music videos twenty four to seven.
MTV's decision is a further sign of the times. Their

(00:35):
flagship channel increasingly began circulating reality based shows heavy into
that back in the two thousands, The Real World, Teen Mom,
Jersey Shore, Oh Boy. In twenty twenty three, MTV shuttered
its music news division, MTV News. Its campus centered offshoot,
MTVu ceased airing Universe at universities in twenty eighteen. I

(00:57):
didn't even know that was a thing. And NOWT has
changed the television landscape as they will be no longer
playing music videos.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
Well, this is just another loss that our generation has suffered.
I mean, how much more of this can we stand?
We're losing all the things that we learned to love
over the years.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
First, they came for AOL dial up, And I said.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
Nothing, Remember that good old AOL dial up. They don't
even offer it anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
That happened this month. Isn't that crazy. The other thing
that's remarkable about this is if I told you, wow,
they don't play music videos on MTV anymore, you'd think
I was talking about two thousand and one. Yeah, because
it had been a while, right, But apparently there's multiple
mtvs and so in some way nothing really changes. But yeah,
that I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
Forget red lobster. You know, I don't know if they're
all closed, but the closed of most of the red
Lobsters that were anywhere near me and you another great
loss to us. And I think I figured out why
why Billy Well, look there Ceo is he's disabled?

Speaker 1 (02:05):
Oh my god? Why it's a black guy? Is that
what you mean?

Speaker 2 (02:08):
Well, he's just abled, is all I noticed? Yeah, handicapped
guy according to the Supreme Court.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Okay, so if you're just turning on your radio it's
seven am, I feel like I need to explain. Please,
we don't think that that's what Katanji Brown Jackson said.
She is.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
She's one of our better or she wouldn't be called
a Supreme she's on the court that gives a final
decision and say so over how we live our lives.
So yeah, she is are better and she tells us
black people are disabled, then you better, by.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
God believe it. But as for the CEO of Red Lobster,
that's Tamola at Dama lecon Now why, he's a Nigerian
businessman who grew up in Zimbabwe before moving to Springfield,
Illinois with his family at age nine. Okay, yeah, he
was also the CEO of PF Chang's for a while,
but he's been in charge of Red Lobster now for
two years.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
And was he the guy that suggested shutting them most
of them down? Or I know he's I'm sure he's
the guy that suggested putting a stop to that all
you can eat shrimp.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
Here's what actually works for politicians. He was in charge
of PF Changs at a time when all the PF
changs were closing. He's one of those guys, and he
was in charge of a Red Lobster at a time
when all the Red Lobsters are closing. Still didn't stop
them from giving him the CEO of the Year award
back in twenty twenty one.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
You got to treat those people different, you know, of
course they're different.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Fortune one hundreds of most powerful people. You're twenty twenty
four top CEO of the year twenty twenty two. Why
would they give him all these awards if he was
closing his restaurants at the time, good question. Feels like
he should not have been those things.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
And we suffered a near catastrophe of a loss, but
luckily Cracker Barrel pulled it back just in time. It's
true that was that was close call right there. I
hate to ask, but because I mean true, they reversed
direction before it was too late.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
Well, the CEO of Cracker Barrel, that's that white lady
with the black rimmed glasses, right.

Speaker 2 (04:10):
You expected you expected a minority to be in charge
of a place called Cracker Barrel.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
I mean it is a woman, you know, and that
kind of that's kind of a minority.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
I mean, that's it is considered a minority. Yeah, that's
what they say, at least in business.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
Which doesn't make any sense because women are forty nine
percent or fifty society.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
There's more women than there are, but a minority business
it's like a woman, you know, a majority woman business
is a minority business.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
Well, whose fault is that? Yeah, because a.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
Lot of these women just decided to not open businesses.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
I guess, ladies, we didn't tell you not to be
a girl boss. You know that was on you anyway. AOC,
she's a girl boss and she wants to apparently has
a problem with Marjorie Taylor Green. They asked her to
see that. They asked her yesterday at that CNN to
Hall if she'd be able to work with MTG on policy,

(05:03):
and this is what she said.

Speaker 3 (05:04):
Jim, Marjorie Taylor Green, she's your colleague over in the House.
The way she frames this is she says Democrats created
this mess, but Republicans don't have any solutions to fix
the healthcare issue either. Is she someone that you could
see yourself working.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
With on what on the healthcare?

Speaker 4 (05:22):
I mean, listen, I think people can talk a good game,
but until they actually support policy that helps people, I
you know, I'm not particularly interested. But if she wants to,

(05:44):
if she actually wants to support legislation and expanding healthcare.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
For illegals, that's what she means. They never finished that statement.
It's like when they say climate change, they mean man made.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
They just leave that part out so everybody will disagree
with them. Sure, the climate's changing, Yeah, but when they
talk about healthcare, they're not talking about for you and me.
M mmmm. I mean it's in their proposal. It's written
in their proposal. They keep saying it's not and it's
right there. They just won't say it out loud. But
that's what it is. I have a funny feeling at
some point AOC is going to realize she can make

(06:19):
more money in television than she can in politics, and
then she's not going to be in office anymore.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
I don't know, you could make a lot of money
replacing Chuck Schumer. Well yeah, but I don't know if
you've ever looked into, you know, Chuck's personal life, the
way things work for him.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
But Cherty said she doesn't want a primary Hm. They
think she's lying. Oh, of course, yes I do.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
Chuck Schumer's annual salary is one hundred and ninety three thousand,
four hundred dollars, less than two hundred thousand a year. Now,
most people don't get filthy rich off of a two
hundred thousand. I mean, it's good money, but it's not
going to make you a multi millionaire, and yet somehow
Chuck Schumer's net worth is eighty five Should somebody be

(07:07):
looking into that.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
That's a lot of money. Now, I will point out
that Forbes claims he has slightly less money than that.
I don't know how much money he really has, but
he is a millionaire and he doesn't know how to
grill a cheeseburger.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
No, he does not, and I'm very suspicious of that.
I'd love to watch that whole video. Was it a
video or is this a still shot? It's a still
shot from the fourth of July. I would love to
see what happens after he puts a raw hamburger patty
on the grill and then he puts a slice of
cheese on top of it. Immediately. Sure, at some point

(07:39):
he's gonna have to flip that burger and the cheese
is gonna go cheese side down on the grill. Is
that gonna work out well? And let's not get ourselves.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
The most unrealistic part about that photo isn't the fact
that he's grilling a cheeseburger the wrong way. It's the
fact that he's celebrating the fourth of July. I mean,
there's no way. That guy loves America.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
I all know.

Speaker 5 (08:00):
We have to treat everybody the same, whether they're Asian
or black or regular.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
Walton and Johnson Radio Network, who lostas the Lowstas drug
cartell got your gang? Yeah, you know, exciting news if
you like the low Satas. This has nothing to do
with that. There's a fifty k ultra marathon called the
Taco Bell fifty k, where participants run thirty one miles
while stopping to eat at nine of the ten designated

(08:25):
Taco bells along the route.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
Well, but wouldn't they just do it a regular marathon
just twenty six point two not that much more to
do thirty one?

Speaker 1 (08:35):
Huh? What are you asking? I'm sorry, you don't know
why they have.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
To be special like an There's be a regular marathon
of twenty six point two miles standard marathon length, but
they have to go thirty one.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
It's just it's just so sad, mister Kenneth, it's an
ultra marathon. What are you not getting at all?

Speaker 2 (08:52):
Why six more miles makes it ultra? You're gonna just
barely over a marathon. I'm sorry, that's the part of
this that confuses you.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
They're gonna would be fifty, would be ultra. They're gonna
eat at nine Taco bells along the route, and I
was trying to ignore that part. And your reaction is, oh,
that's slightly longer than normal marathon. That's what she said.
Here are the rules. You have to be present at
all ten Taco bell stops along the route, zero tolerance
for course cutting. You have to eat a menu item

(09:19):
from at least nine of the ten Taco bell stops.
By the fourth stop, all the people competing must have
consumed at least one CHALUPA Supreme or one crunch Trap Supreme.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
Go crunch Wrap. That's the way to go. Right there.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
By the eighth stop, everybody must have consumed at least
one Burrito Supreme or one NATO's Bell Grande.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
They raced before or is this anaugurl They've been doing
it since twenty eighteen. How many people normally die through
the course of the race.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
They don't include any information about deaths, so they don't
even average it. I'm gonna guess probably nobody's died yet.
You have to finish in under eleven miles under eleven hours,
I'm sorry, and drinks do not count as food.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
You know, you can walk that distance in eleven hours,
and you have to run at all.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
And you have to keep all the receipts in the
wrappers for confirmation of the fact that you did it
by the end of the run. Of course, bathroom breaks
will be allowed a little bit. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
Now it sounds dumb and ridiculous and a crazy way
to spend a Saturday or whatever day they do it all.
So I'm assuming, knowing all that, Kenny can't wait, I
would do it, I thought so. Yeah, mainly for the food,
though not for the exercise. I mean, yeah, I would probably.
You know, are you gonna if you finish the race

(10:31):
and you get a medal at the end of your
ultra marathon, are you gonna?

Speaker 1 (10:36):
Are you gonna keep it this time?

Speaker 4 (10:37):
No?

Speaker 1 (10:37):
I'm throwing it right in the garbage. That's a participation trophy,
is right.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
In the garbage, right next to the other medal you
got for the Houston Marathon.

Speaker 1 (10:45):
Yeah. I threw that out too. I didn't need it
what I need.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
For marathon runners generally run a lot of them. I
have met, not many, several friends who are marathon runners,
and they normally have a display on the wall are
a case on the table or something displaying their array
of ribbons from the multiple marathons that they've run over
the years from different cities, and they're quite proud of that.

(11:11):
You are making all of them feel bad now because
you are saying that those medals are just worthless and
they should throw them out.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
Well, it just shows that they showed up and they
finished the race. No, it doesn't mean anything. It's not
that you could just walk the whole time. You still
get a medal. It's like the world's first participation trophy.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
Just you know, even if you don't really play the game,
might get a trophy steal.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
Don't right, Yeah, who cares?

Speaker 3 (11:34):
What?

Speaker 1 (11:34):
Oh you finished?

Speaker 2 (11:35):
Great?

Speaker 1 (11:36):
Me too, don't. I don't need a medal.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
You remember what they say about marathons. It's winning. It
is not the point. Finishing is the accomplishment.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
For me, I was trying to win and didn't win,
and when all I did was finish. And then do
you remember the.

Speaker 2 (11:50):
Year that a black guy that passed you up and
then left you in the dust.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
Probably, I guarantee you, well, there are a lot of people, right,
and I probably passed some black guy up too, because
are a lot of people on the race. I doubt that,
but you're forgetting the most interesting thing about that race.
That was the year that Lena had dalgo pleedgedly planted
that she pretended to run the race. She says she did,
but not really. No, And looking back on it what

(12:14):
we know now versus what we know now, I'm more
convinced than ever she never really ran the marathon. Do
you remember she ran under a fake name and they
sort of claimed at the time, Wow, that was probably
for security. She had to protect herself, protect herself from who.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
Yeah, but I'm thinking this the fake name she used
was actually the real name of the person that ran it, right,
and they just gave her credit for it.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
And along the way she stopped it did some photo ops.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
But did you put one of them luggage trackers on
you before you ran so they'll know where you were
at all time, so you didn't hop in a car
and just, you know, ride to the finish line. You're
talking about air tags, aren't you, whatever, Yeah, put them
into the luggage. Pradaline loves to watch the luggage like
there's something she can do about it if it doesn't
get on the flight, or if the it gets on

(12:58):
the wrong flight. She can get on the on the
phone there and she can track her bags and she
loves doing it. But one day those bags are gonna
end up in you know, Indianapolis or someplace. What's she
gonna do?

Speaker 1 (13:10):
Yeah, what are you gonna do?

Speaker 2 (13:11):
You tracked it and you're aware that it ain't coming,
but they don't help you get your bag back.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
Busy Will. Speaking of air tags, here comes a Florida man.
Oh boy, and this reports brought to you by naturally,
the Silver Slipper Casino.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
You know, it is Thursday, and they really blow it
out every Thursday evening at the Silver Slipper besides the
big car show and live music and all that fun.
They I noticed on their website easily that they still
have those those silver slippers, those crystal silver Slipper shoes.

(13:52):
And there's a jackpot involved with the shoes of about
one hundred thousand dollars. You know, may be worth your
while to slip on end of the slipper.

Speaker 1 (14:00):
Wow, that's a good deal. Silver Slipper Casino. Man, get
in and get in on some of that there. And
I hear they have a pool in a pond.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
That's what I hear. Yeah, I've never seen the pool.
I mean well from addistance, but I've never actually been
right up there because they keep steering me towards the pond.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
The beach is better for yeah, that's better for all Right. Today,
we take you to Hillsborough County, not far away from
Fort Lauderdale. I believe that's where two Florida burglars are
accused of tracking a couple using Apple air tags before
briefly abducting them at gunpoint in their own garage.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
So they put the tags on the people.

Speaker 1 (14:33):
Yeah. Meet Lewis Charles, age twenty six and Odari Maldonado Rodriguez,
age thirty two, both accused of sticking a location tracker
to the bottom of unsuspecting victims SUVs before following them
back to their home, put them on the car, and
ambushing them.

Speaker 2 (14:49):
I'm guessing that second dude, old Ballio, whatever his name,
well right, that's the troublemaker right there, Oh Darty, is
that your Yeah, that guy, he's the trouble maker.

Speaker 1 (14:57):
He probably got his young out. They're called up in it.
According to the Sheriff's office, the duo snuck upon a
snuck up on a car the occupants were stepping out
of their car in their driveway. They grabbed the couple.
They rushed them inside the garage boy and from there,
one of the men, wearing a highly high visibility safety
vest and a bright green shirt, pulled a weapon out

(15:19):
of his pocket before he grabbed the woman out of
the passenger seat. The other suspect was dressed in darker clothes,
a hoodie and a mask. He snatched the mail driver.
The armed men rushed the couple inside their home, but
now before the woman fought back and forced the walking
highlighter to carry her inside. That's how they described it
here in the report. So the woman fought back. The

(15:39):
husband was doing what exactly being a cuck, I don't know,
I don't know. An alarm was triggered inside.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
Was trying to protect this woman by not fighting smart
so you know, but she didn't care about him.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
Good thinking, not fighting is always a good way to go,
and alarm was triggered inside the home, and the two
suspects fled the scene before cops arrived. Apparently, Charles was
arrested by police in Tampa, and a police body cam
recorded the moment the wanted suspect was handcuffed outside his car.
Two days later, Maldonado Rodriguez was captured in Pasco County.

(16:12):
That got him both.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
You know, after they got the first one, he rated
it out of Bodner, you know, I mean it probably
took him five or six hours before they beat I
mean talked him into it.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
But yeah, he rated out his Podner. Well, here's what's interesting,
slew it charges for both men. Arm burglary, two counts
of arm kidnapping, robbery with a firearm, false imprisonment, and
listen to this illegal installation of a tracking device. Yeah,
because that's a crime. You can't do that.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
You can just go sticking a tracking device home people
any old time you feel like it.

Speaker 1 (16:40):
Right. While in custody, Charles was also slapped with a
sexual battery charge, apparently for a person under the age
of twelve and eighteen, according to jail records. Oh dear, no, Oh,
by the way, border patrol ice notification on Charles turns
out he's an illegal immigrant.

Speaker 2 (16:57):
What no, no, that can't be true, certainly, And all
these illegal aliens are just fine people coming here for
a better life and take care of their family. Why
would you accuse them of doing some kind of horrible crime.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
Well, this one apparently put tracking devices on an innocent
couple's suv, robbed them, an had sex with underage girls.

Speaker 2 (17:14):
Because he was told that's how you do things in America.
Somebody just misled him about the customs of our country.

Speaker 1 (17:21):
Hey, fake news alert. While we're talking about immigration, there's
a report going around that a fifteen year old citizen
was disappeared by the FEDS for five hours after an
East Side protest over there in Chicago. Uh huh, it's
misleading for a couple of reasons. Okay. Number one, there
is no east side of Chicago. East side that would
be the lake. Yeah, exactly, big as lake too. You

(17:41):
ever seen that lake? But here's the facts. Right immediately
following illegal aliens ramming law enforcement with their vehicles, which
resulted in the arrest of two illegal aliens from Venezuela,
a violent mob began to surround law enforcement in Chicago
this week. Among them was a teenager and American teenager
throwing eggs, which hit a CBP off in the head.
Agents observed him gathering rocks after objects had already been

(18:04):
thrown at law enforcement officers. The individual was arrested for
the assault and taken to an FBI field office in Chicago,
where he freely admitted without questioning the throwing the eggs.

Speaker 2 (18:13):
Now he probably felt because what is he fifteen? That
he get off with a slap on arista. You know,
you can choose to charge people when they do something
like that as an adult.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
Maybe they've heard of it. Well, it turns out he
was as an American citizen. He was given an attorney.
The attorney met him at the field office, and he
was released without charges, naturally, because that's Chicago. So this
idea that he's some kind of victim, I mean, this
guy actually assaulted law enforcement officers, was briefly detained and
then released without charges.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Should still be being detained at this moment, right.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
Are we really going to pretend like he's a victim
and feels like, well.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
Yes, everybody wants to be the victim. Remember it's America
to the only important people here are the victims.

Speaker 1 (18:54):
Do you think you get a participation trophies for that? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (18:57):
I'm tired of everybody pretending like all the migrants have
great food. Third world food is a scam. Hey, Jake Nets,
you've never had guack?

Speaker 1 (19:06):
Shut up?

Speaker 5 (19:06):
It's an avocado snatched up. Don't tell me that people
who are on the brink of starvation know anything about
fine cuisine. Oh what, the spices, the seasoning. The reason
they gotta use so many spices is because you're eating
a pigeon.
