Speaker 1 (00:00):
Why did Glenn Campbell need a big orchestra to do
this song? Why couldn't he just play it on the guitar.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Because he knows more about music than we do, and
he's he was right. It was just perfect, perfect in
every way.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
Well, anyway, rest in peace to Glenn Campbell. He once
wrote a song about Galveston, which, as you know, is
the Grand Isle of Texas.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
Everyone knows that. That's what we refer to it as
the Grand Isle of Texas.

Speaker 1 (00:22):
The Mobile Alabama of Texas. That's what we call Galveston.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
But you're shifting further and further each and I was
just trying to come up with an analogy that would
confuse everyone. That was good effort, Kenny.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
Do we want to go to Galveston right now? We're
already there? Okay, Well played the song. I just want
to make sure we're all on board. It's one of
those tricky situations. An eighty eight year old Galveston man
murdered his eighty nine year old wife Monday morning early apparently,
according to this report, isn't that the weirdest thing when

(00:52):
people are really old and then they get into murder.

Speaker 2 (00:55):
Ernest is accused of killing Anita early Monday morning, around
four thirty am, inside their home. They're in Galveston, and
the reason authorities knew about this is because she had
a medical device a parent like a heart monitor or
some kind of medical device with her that sent an
emergency look kind of like a you know, if you

(01:17):
are in a car wreck and you got that thing
where if your car is in a wreck. I forget
what they call it now, but it's in the up
by the mirror up above your head. They can are
you okay, You've just been reported in an accident on
board on Star on Star, so it's like a medical
on Star, I guess. Anyway, first responders were dispatched about

(01:39):
four point thirty. The husband didn't call them, but when
they got there, they found the wife dead from a
parent single gunshot wound to the head, and they said
he admitted to shooting his wife. Rested without incident, booked
in the Galveston County Jail. And the investigation has been
going on since Monday and I haven't seen any updates.
If you have seen an update, perhaps you could email

(02:01):
us or call us and let us know. But I'm
assuming since she was wearing a medical device and she
was eighty nine. She was probably in horrible, terrible, agonizing
pain which she couldn't stand anymore. I'm guessing it was,
you know, and I don't have anything to back this
up with, but I'm just assuming this was probably one

(02:21):
of those mercy killing situations, and you know, he just
felt like he needed to help her out of her misery.
I don't know, okay, So, and should he be arrested
and held for murder if that proves to be the case.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
All right, So, we just had a news story this
week about youth in Asia that we were gonna do
on the show, and we never got to.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
It about the use in Europe, just the ones in Asia.
I don't know what that has to do with Galveston, Texas,
but you go ahead, Billy.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
We talked about this before. That's not a youth in Asia.
I mean, should I bother explaining it to her? Okay,
A long time ago, there were these two ideas. Well,
it wasn't a long time ago. It was till earlier
this week. There were two identical twins this week. Yes,
Alice and Alan Kessler were celebrities like one hundred years ago. Okay,
maybe not that long ago. They died together this week.
They were a German pop duo, and they said in

(03:16):
Ethanasia they were famous for performing with Frank Sinatra back
in the day.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Well they are old, yeah, very old, right exactly.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Here's them in nineteen sixty one performing Eric the Conqueror.
I don't know, I never saw it. I've got them
on the screen here, we're just looking at them. They
were two sisters. They were big in the fifties and
the sixties, and they were very anyway, they wanted to
die together.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
So this week they what do you like Siamese twins? No,
just I think if you kill one, the other dies,
because you can't just be lugging around that dead body
on you know, stuck to your side or wherever.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
How about this, if you die while you're playing video games?
Do you die in real life?

Speaker 2 (03:55):
Guys? What focus?

Speaker 1 (03:57):
Oh that's right, okay. So Alice and Alan Kesler the
singing Syster. So we're famous in Europe in the nineteen sixties,
especially in Italy, where they were credited for bringing glamor
to the country's TV network, have decided to participate in
a joint assisted suicide at their home in Grunwald, close
to Munich. And so getting back to your point here.

(04:17):
While I'm not a big fan of youth in Asia,
it just feels like if they'd have done this on
the other side of an invisible line, it would have
been totally legal. If they'd have gone to New Jersey
or Oregon or Canada, then this guy wouldn't be in
any trouble.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
But he didn't have to pick your spots for this
kind of thing. But I don't think the old man
in Galveson wanted to move in Galveston.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
Margarita's and coconut shrimp on the beach are okay, but
assisted suicide is not.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
They still doing that thing where they take a long
knit beer bottle and put it upside down inside of
a giant margarita, and then you got a margarita with
a beer in it. That was a big thing like
ten years ago. I don't know if they're still doing
it or not.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
The first time you try it, it's kind of fun,
but then after you have a couple of them, it
occurs to you. It's just a lot of where carrying
around in upside down beer bottle and a bargera.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Could tip over, fall out of your drink, and it
could make a mess. It could get on some people
and they might not want beer spell action on them,
and then you could end up in a fight. Also,
you need a tiny little bottle.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
If they give you a big bottle and you have
to sit there balancing the whole thing, that's no good man.

Speaker 2 (05:17):
That'll ruin your evening.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
You'll want to kill yourself from all the work you'll
have to put into having that cocktail.

Speaker 2 (05:22):
Plus, I don't know if you've ever noticed it or not,
but a corona poured into a margarita for some reason, right,
smells like pot. Yeah, isn't that the weirdest thing, the
weirdest combination. But all of a sudden it's like, well,
is somebody smoking weed around here? No, it's your drink. Yeah,
that is true. I don't why that is. Hey, you

(05:42):
never answered the question. Or do you think the man
if it is in one of those cases of you know,
he's just putting her out of her misery mercy killing,
do you think he should be charged? He's eighty eight,
she's eighty nine, and obviously you know not doing well. Well.
Rule a law here, I think you have to. But
isn't there you know, some humanity involved in some of

(06:04):
these decisions.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
I tend to be one of those people, even though
I'm pro life that I just feel like, if someone
wants to die, it shouldn't be criminalized. And I know
that's a touchy subject for a lot of people listening
that probably get mad at me, just especially my Catholic friends,
But I don't think it should be up to the government. Now,
God has already decided that if you do that, you
get punished. But we're supposed to have free will. Wasn't

(06:26):
suicide that that's against the Bible. But it wasn't suicide.
She was a murder victim, so she should go straight
to heaven. For Catholics, it's against the Bible, but it's
my understanding. For some of these other Christian light sex
you know, like the Methodists, it's not against the Bible.

Speaker 2 (06:43):
All right, Well, what did what did you just said?
It was against the God might not be happy about it.
What happened here that God won't like?

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Okay, the killing yourself part or if he didn't kill herself,
but did he tell did she tell him to do it?

Speaker 2 (06:56):
Doesn't matter she didn't do it. It feels like a would
it be suicide if I said Kenny shoot me. Yes,
it's not suicide. It was suicide by cop or suicide
by Kenny. It's just it's not the same as suicide.
Rule of law, as you already stated, Sir, important in
this matter, and I think the rule of law in
heaven has to be as important, don't you think.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
I feel like you're trying to trick God with a
legal loophole here and you can't do that.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
God's not going to fall for it. He didn't get
tricked with loopholes. But a good lawyer could get away
with me. Well, you know, not for nothing here.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
But there's a portion of our audience that's obsessed with
the Jews, and I think I can already hear them
writing an email about how Jews have those fancy elevators
in New York City that they can use on Saturdays
because they're Hellal approved or something like that.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
That's tricky, Maam, did they get blessed? Well? Is that
a loophole? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (07:49):
Have you ever heard the thing about Orthodox Jews and
toilet paper? You're not supposed to rip toilet paper on Saturdays,
so they have pre ripped toilet paper that they lay out,
and if you're in a bathroom on a Saturday and
there's no pre ripped toilet paper, you're supposed to ask
ogoyam to help you or you take the whole roll.

Speaker 2 (08:06):
You just kinda you know that's gonna get messy though?
What were you just doing with you I'm going to
rip off a section? You got to use the whole role, sure,
just drag it through there. Okay.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
So that's their suggestion is just put the toilet paper
in the water and then flush it so then the
paper itself will flush down and then But I would
assume you can't flush. If you can't rip toilet paper,
why are you allowed to jiggle the handle?

Speaker 2 (08:29):
Well? Just I don't know these rules. I don't know
where you what? What do you spend your spare time reading?

Speaker 1 (08:34):
Right now, I'm reading a report from the United Nations
about notable twerk expert and ghetto rapper Nicki Minaj speaking
before the United Nations to stand up for the persecuted
Christians in Nigeria.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
Man, let me tell you something. She looks good. She
really does.

Speaker 1 (08:51):
She's a very attractive woman. If you're into that sort
of thing, Nicki Minaj is certainly one of them. Would
she classify as thick. I think that's the definition would
look good. Here she is yesterday and.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
Nigeria Christians are being targeted, driven from their homes and killed.
Georges have been burnt, families have been torn apart, and
entire communities live in fear constantly simply because of how
they break.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
Wouldn't it be more powerful if she wrapped it? That's
her skill She should have fall back on her skill
set and sing this of speech, because she's not as
good a speech giver as she is a singer or
a rapper. Boko Haram is a wackass cult.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
If they come to your village, you'll have to bolt
when they do that jihad. It's really bad, but if
you shoot back you will feel so glad.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
I hate that when you hand fill up with spit.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
I know it's hard to beat boxed without getting lugi
all over yourself.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
And now it's nasty. All right? Can I have permission
to change my mind about something? This will be fun.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
I've been doing a deep dive into this thing in
Nigeria and I first heard about this from my Catholic
priest months ago. He said, you know, there's a thing
going on right now in Nigeria where they're murdering Christians
and Catholics.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
Oh, it's all the rage. The whole country's into it.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
And at the time, it was not getting much news
coverage in the United States, and I noticed it was
really only being discussed by Americans and tiny little corners
of the internet on Twitter where Catholics were discussing geopolitics.
And then all of a sudden, a couple of weeks ago,
nobody expected this. Pete Hegseth comes out and he goes,
we need to smash these Boko Haram jahantists in Nigeria.

(10:37):
We need to do something about it. And my initial
response was good, I'm glad we're doing something, but what
are we going to do? So Trump comes out and
he says, all right, we cut off funding, we quit
giving them AID. How much aid are we giving them?
Hundreds of millions of dollars, which sounds like a lot,
but in the world of global I think the amount
of money we'd give away no, Okay, now we have

(10:57):
cut a lot of that down. But some people have said, well,
if we stopped giving the money, all these black guys
are going to get AIDS. And I was like, well,
hang on a second, why is that my fault that
they're having unprotected sex and they have HIV? Why do
I have to pay for that? And of course now
we're getting away from the point here, Yes we are.
The point was do we do something about it? So
I started talking to actual Nigerian Americans and I've been

(11:18):
doing this for the last several days, just reaching out
to them, bothering them, calling them up on the phone
and said, what are actual night Do actual Nigerians want
the United States of America to help? And they kind
of have mixed feelings about it. Some of them do,
some of them don't. But one of the things they
have pointed out to me is that we cannot prove
that all the murders attributed to Boko Haram are jahand related.

(11:40):
While the overholtwhelming majority of their violence seems to be
ideologically driven, a lot of these murders that seem to
be making headlines here have more to do with how
do I put it, they exhibit tactical or opportunistic elements
that blur the line with local grievances, revenge or resource control.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
That's how you would put it. Well, Like you just
read that right off of somebody else's homework.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
I have some notes here on my screen in front
of me that I wrote out yesterday, I believe it
or not.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
I prepare for these broadcasts no way. Yeah, well that's
the problem.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
I know. I spent a lot of time getting ready
to go on there. Oh my god, we got to
put a s up to that. Let me put this
in different terms. What did you change your mind on?

Speaker 2 (12:19):
The thank you? I'd like to get right to the point.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
Okay, are these people getting murdered because they're Christians? Or
is this just crime in another country? And what did
you change your mind on? And if it's just crime
in another country, here comes the rub, mister Kenneth, because
I know that's what you're waiting for.

Speaker 2 (12:34):
Why is that our problem?

Speaker 1 (12:36):
People are getting murdered in Mexico, They're getting murdered, and
it's in Sudan. People are getting murdered in China. People
are being murdered right now in the Mideast? Is it
our job as a country to do something about all
of that?

Speaker 2 (12:47):
So if there was like seven thousand Christians killed this year,
do you think most of it was called they were Christian?
Or most of it?

Speaker 1 (12:55):
Because yeah, just one of those things. A lot of
people die in Nigeria. Well that's the question. And if
that's the case, is it our fault do we have
to do? Is it our responsibility?

Speaker 2 (13:03):
But you said you changed your mind, so you must
have the fact to make that decision. I am now
walking along a tightrope. Here.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
To the right of me, is we do something about it.
To the left of it, we don't. And I am
leaning neutral. I'm starting to lean towards we. I've moved
from we need to do something about it, over leaning
towards maybe this isn't our problem.

Speaker 2 (13:23):
Have you read the protesters' signs out there in the colleges,
protesting against the Jews. I try not to. Yeah, neutral
equals genocide, sorrow.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
Oh wait, no, you've got it. You're close. Silence equals violence.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
I read one that says neutral equals GENIID don't tell
me what I read. I saw a poster. It was
a post. It was a story about how these college
kids who were out protesting, you know, along with the
Hummas to you know, kill the Jews. Yeah, kill the Jews.
From the from the office to the sea, you know,
right out of the work, from the cubicle to the ocean,

(13:59):
not only where they paid to protests. Now they're being
given bonus checks of like one thousand dollars if they
got in trouble for protesting. But I digress. We have
to take a break. Did you just digress? I did? Oh? Man,
I didn't think you had it in you. I'm your
huckle bear. Stay tuned for more. Waltman Johnson? Man, is

(14:23):
that Nikki?

Speaker 1 (14:24):
This is Nikki and two chains? You know he's famous
for having two chains on.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
That's right, not just one. Anybody can have one. This
man got two. Came Some rappers only wear one chain,
not this guy. Now where these around his neck? Ankle? Yeah?
Where exactly? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (14:41):
The neck?

Speaker 2 (14:41):
Yeah that's where. Yeah that don't be doing that ankle
chain thing. Now they're gonna put you back in chains.
Who said that? That was? That was Joe Biden? Very good.
Has Jesse Jackson died yet?

Speaker 1 (14:54):
Everybody's traveling to Chicago all the fat prominent black leaders
around the country.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
Last I heard, he was like on like life support.
So you know.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
Al Sharpton posted a video of himself getting on a
plane and saying Chicago bound or something like that. And
Rodney allis the Harris County Commissioner's courts there too.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
Probably just want to be there if the cameras are there. Yeah, oh,
let's let's gogether around Jesse and get on get on camera.

Speaker 1 (15:21):
Well, we'll get back to Nicki Minaj in her war
with Boko Haram and a little bit. But first, yesterday,
Donald Trump lit up a reporter twice, two different reporters.
The first one is real quick, he's on air Force one,
a female reporter from Bloomberg, who, to Trump's credit here
is one of the ugliest women I've ever seen in
my life, really started mounting off to him while he

(15:42):
was trying to talk to someone else, and he said,
shut up, piggy. No, he said, quiet, Piggy, quiet, Piggy.

Speaker 2 (15:52):
Quiet. That is so as the Democrats would say, so unpresential.
There's other microphones around him, and I you know, you
know what was presidential that guy you just talked about,
the guy just before Trump. Anybody remember that guy, Joe Biden.
Glenn Campbell. No, Joe Biden, Okay, Joe Biden was presidential Trump,

(16:15):
not Joe Biden. Biden would would tell people, uh, you know, like, uh,
if you don't shut up, I'm gonna take you out
behind the schoolhouse and give you a good beaten. He
was always threatening physical violence on people, and that was okay.
But when Trump says things like quiet piggy, oh, they're
so unprecedential, and it actually got a little worse.

Speaker 1 (16:38):
Yesterday, he was in the Oval Office with the Crown
Prince of Saudi Arabia and the press, and a female
reporter from apparently ABC News piped in and wanted to
say something, and he didn't like the way she asked
the question, can.

Speaker 4 (17:00):
We for Congress to release the Epstein files?

Speaker 2 (17:01):
Why not just do it that?

Speaker 4 (17:03):
Well, it's not the question that I mind. It's your attitude.

Speaker 2 (17:07):
I think you are a terrible report.

Speaker 4 (17:10):
It's the way you ask these questions. You start off
with a man who's highly respected asking him a horrible,
insubordinate and just a terrible question. And you could even
ask that same exact question nicely. You're all psyched. Somebody
sucks you over at ABC. You're gonna psych it. You're

(17:32):
a terrible person and a terrible reporter as far as
the Epstein files is. But he's going to have nothing
to do with Jeffrey Epstein. I threw him out of
my club many years ago, because I thought he was
a sick pervert. But but I guess I would turn
out to be right. But you know who does have
built Letton? Larry Somers, who ran Harvard, was with him

(17:52):
every single night, every single weekend. They lived together. They
went to his island many times. I never did Andrew
Weisman here. All these guys were friends of his. You
don't even talk about those people. You just keep going
on the Epstein files. Now, what the Epstein is is
a Democrat hoax to try and get me not to

(18:14):
be able to talk about the twenty one trillion dollars
that I talked about today.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
It's a hoax.

Speaker 4 (18:20):
Now, I just got a little report and I put
it in my pocket. Of all the money that he's
given to Democrats, he gave me none, zero, no money
to me. But he gave money to Democrats and people
who wives to your hoax. And ABC's your company, your
crappy company is one of the perpetrators.

Speaker 2 (18:40):
And I'll tell you something. I'll tell you something.

Speaker 4 (18:43):
I think the license should be taken away from ABC.
That's because your news is so fake and is so wrong.
And we have a great commissioner, the chairman who should
look at that, because I think when you come in
and when you're ninety seven percent negative to Trump and
then Trump wins the election in a landslide, that means

(19:04):
obviously your news is not credible.

Speaker 1 (19:06):
All right, people are going to scream that he's violating
the First Amendment here, and as as a lover of
the First Amendment, can I just chime in with a.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
Retort to those people any chance I could stop you?

Speaker 1 (19:16):
The public airwaves are the public's airwaves, everybody, right, we
don't own this broadcast license. Well, I mean, we own
the license, but we don't own the airwaves. The airwaves
are owned by the people. So if somebody's using their
broadcast license to do something that is juxtaposing to what
the popular opinions are about politics and that sort of thing,

(19:37):
an argument could be made that, even though we've accepted
it for a long time, that the news outlets using
these free terrestrial airwaves are doing it in violation or
contradiction of what the people would want them to be
used for. And so Trump's point here is, if you
are doing something anti American, you know, if you're doing

(19:59):
fake journalism all the time, maybe we should take your
broadcast license away, we all assume, Oh, that's a violation
of the First Amendment.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
I never thought that.

Speaker 1 (20:06):
Well, yeah, okay, the general public is saying that the
media is saying things like that boom, but nobody.

Speaker 2 (20:13):
Owns the airwaves. That's owned by the public. You get
my point. I got it about ten minutes ago, but
I didn't want to stop you from making it. I've
been talking for forty five seconds exactly. Am I really
that intolerable? Does it just seem like ten minutes? Is
that the problem?

Speaker 1 (20:28):
Quiet Piggy Ringo looked like somebody just walked over your grave.

Speaker 2 (20:34):
Stay tuned for more. Waltman Johnson

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
