1
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:05,280
Speaker 1: Okay, under when you hear the new Supreme leader say

2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 1: it's their intention to keep up the pressure that they're

3
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 1: going to keep the straights and removes closed, where does

4
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:13,440
Speaker 1: that lead the US?

5
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:17,639
Speaker 2: Well, I think it leaves us in a pretty tough spot.

6
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:21,119
Speaker 2: Most of that oil goes to China and India, so to

7
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 2: Asia that crude oil, but it does affect the worldwide

8
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 2: market price for crude oil and also for natural gas.

9
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 2: So we're going to see higher prices at the pump.

10
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:37,200
Speaker 2: But also, you know, people will pay more for gas

11
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:42,239
Speaker 2: than just energy in general cost more. You know, this administration,

12
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 2: you know, made it harder for the energy that we

13
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 2: did have available in this country to put on the grid.

14
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 2: Now it's a separate energy source, but it is also

15
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 2: important to bring down people's utility prices. They made it

16
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 2: to harder to permit solar and wind projects.

17
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 3: Okay, So that's Senator Mark Kelly, and he's blaming the

18
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 3: Trump administration saying we're going to see higher gas prices

19
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 3: at the pump because of what is going on with Iran.

20
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 3: Did he complain about gas prices when Joe Biden was president?

21
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 3: Go ahead, go ahead and look look at see let

22
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 3: me know what you come up with. Oh wait, no, no, nothing,

23
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 3: you'll find nothing about that. Just a reminder we can

24
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 3: complain about the price of gas right now. It is

25
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,400
Speaker 3: still lower than when Joe Biden was president.

26
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 4: My name is Casey, that is Jim. Thank you so

27
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 4: much for being here today.

28
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 3: Damaging wins across the Great State of Indiana. We'll keep

29
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 3: an eye on that today things are quite windy. Also

30
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 3: coming up today, the red state of Florida about to

31
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 3: pass its own Save America Act and then they're going

32
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 3: to send that on too Governor Ron de Santis for

33
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 3: his signature. Here is CFO Blaze Ingoglia talking about how

34
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 3: they're going to look for voter ID in the Great

35
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 3: State of Florida.

36
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 5: The State of Florida is on the verge of passing

37
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 5: its own version of the Save Act, which is going

38
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 5: to look for voter ID and also to verify that

39
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 5: the people that are voting in our elections are indeed

40
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 5: actual US citizens. Florida should have this bill passed. My

41
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 5: guess is either today or tomorrow, and it will find

42
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,519
Speaker 5: its way off to the governor to be signed into law.

43
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 3: So that's going to be a new trend. States are

44
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 3: individually going to be passing their own save acts like

45
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 3: Florida is going to verify that people that are voting

46
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 3: in our elections are indeed actual US citizens. Also on

47
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 3: the way, Scott Besstt, Secretary of the Treasury, he announced

48
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 3: the Internal Revenue Service is launching massive audits of financial

49
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 3: institutions that facilitated laundering of Minnesota funds.

50
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 6: Civil Enforcement is auditing financial institutions that facilitated the laundering

51
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 6: of Minnesota funds. In addition to helping support criminal and

52
00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 6: civil enforcement efforts. Will also soon announce the formation of

53
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 6: a task force.

54
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 3: Okay, so a task force by the IRS going after

55
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 3: fraud instead of going after you the taxpayer. Well that's

56
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 3: welcome news. And finally, how to celebrate St Patrick's Day

57
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 3: in Indianapolis. Saint Patrick's Day maybe four days away, but

58
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 3: the Shenanigans begin today.

59
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 7: Saint Patrick, as we know, was the historic man of

60
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 7: God who, with passion and strength of conviction, converted the

61
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 7: people of Ireland to Christianity. I have a deep and

62
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 7: abiding respect for the accomplishments of Saint Patrick, an individual

63
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 7: who was able to turn the head of the entire

64
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 7: Irish race. Having done my best these last six years,

65
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 7: even on the minor issues to convert the likes of

66
00:03:47,320 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 7: Senator Kennedy and Speaker O'Neil, I can only stand in

67
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 7: awe of such a man. Saint Patrick's imprint can be

68
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 7: found even today on the character the Irish People and

69
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 7: on all of us who trace our roots to Ireland.

70
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 4: Friday, Ronald Reagan, does it get any better?

71
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 8: No, it's so funny.

72
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 9: So I was not expecting that clip because I didn't

73
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 9: hear it in advance, and so initially my brain reacts

74
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 9: and I go, oh, that's Ronald Reagan.

75
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 8: Is it odd?

76
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 9: My first instinct, this is not a joke. My first

77
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 9: instinct was to put my hand over my heart like that.

78
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,479
Speaker 8: That's how you know, incredible Ronald.

79
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 9: I did salute for the YouTube cameras, which, by the way,

80
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 9: you can watch us on YouTube. But that was my

81
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 9: first inclination, is to just kind of like salute him

82
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 9: or put my hand over my heart. Always a good

83
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 9: day when we can get some Ronald Reagan audio on

84
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 9: the show.

85
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 4: So back to what.

86
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 3: Senator Mark Kelly was saying. He's saying, you're going to

87
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 3: see higher prices at the pomp. People are going to

88
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 3: pay more for gas and more for everything because of that.

89
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,280
Speaker 3: And it was just yesterday that the International Energy Agent SEA,

90
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,239
Speaker 3: which is based out of Paris, said that the Iran

91
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 3: war is creating the largest supply disruption in the history

92
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 3: of the global oil market. They went on to say

93
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,720
Speaker 3: that this is an even bigger oil shock than the

94
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 3: Arab oil embargo of the nineteen seventies. So suddenly the

95
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 3: world's gas pumps, shipping lanes, grocery stores, everything all gets

96
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 3: held hostage, millions of barrels disappear, prices spike, and the US,

97
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 3: despite being the biggest producer, can't escape it. We've got

98
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 3: global oil markets like a house of cards, and the

99
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 3: Strait of Hormuz is just one single card that can

100
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 3: bring the whole thing down.

101
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 9: And let's I'm getting the sense that we're kind of

102
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 9: entering into this part of the war where we start

103
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 9: to see a lot of panic and doom and gloom

104
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 9: and stories that are leaked out intentionally to kind of

105
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 9: cause fear among the American public. And I'm going to

106
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 9: go back to a story we talked about earlier in

107
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 9: the week where ABC News reported that there was this

108
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 9: FBI memo to you know, law enforcement in California to

109
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 9: be on you know, be on alert for you know,

110
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 9: drunke drones strike from Iran, and the Press secretary President's

111
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 9: Press secretary came out, Carolyn Levitt and said, you know,

112
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 9: that's an erroneous report.

113
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 8: It was unverified information.

114
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 9: And actually ABC News had to send out a correction

115
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 9: to that story from yesterday. But it does cause a

116
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 9: lot of panic yesterday, you know, earlier this week. And

117
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 9: I get the sense that this is a lot of

118
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 9: it too, and so I want to take a look

119
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 9: at the facts here as we take a look at this. Yes,

120
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 9: gas prices are up a good bit in the state

121
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 9: of Indiana, but the last several days they've stabilized and

122
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 9: they really haven't moved at all. And yes, oil is

123
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 9: up a good bit, but it's way down from its

124
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 9: peak of one hundred and twenty that happened Sunday night

125
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 9: Monday morning. Now it is still up thirty percent. And yes,

126
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 9: the stock market is down about seven percent. Keep in

127
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 9: mind stock market was up over twenty percent in twenty

128
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,479
Speaker 9: twenty five. So I just think I think it's a

129
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 9: good idea to kind of sit back and take a

130
00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 9: breath as we hear all of these you know, do

131
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 9: in gloom and panic stories that come out of the news. Yes,

132
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 9: this is a concern. Yes gas prices are going to

133
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,840
Speaker 9: go up, and yes they may stay up for a

134
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 9: little while. But what I keep going back to is

135
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 9: if Trump can end up getting a win from this

136
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 9: in the next two three four months, we will look

137
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 9: back at this as kind of a at least from

138
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 9: an economic standpoint, and you know how it affects American's

139
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 9: day to day lives, will look.

140
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 4: Back to temporary pain for long term gain.

141
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:28,559
Speaker 8: Yeah.

142
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 9: I wasn't gonna use those words since we had that

143
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 9: audio earlier in the week where all the newscasters on

144
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 9: every outlook we're you know, repeating the same thing over

145
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 9: and over again. But hopefully when we see three four

146
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 9: months from now, we'll be like, Okay, that was a

147
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 9: little blip.

148
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 8: In our lives.

149
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 3: So we do have twenty percent of the world's oil

150
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 3: normally moving through that straight so any disruption, of course,

151
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 3: it's gonna hit global markets. But you have to keep

152
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 3: in mind that we are the biggest oil producer on Earth.

153
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 3: We still can't escape that chaos there, But that's how

154
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 3: global energy markets work. Here is Donald Trump talking about

155
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 3: releasing oil from the strategic reserves. It was a.

156
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 8: Timeline on when you're planning to tap a strategic petroleum reserve,

157
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 8: a timeline of when that quit happen, you're to be

158
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 8: doing it very quickly. And then we'll fill it up.

159
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 10: We'll fill up our reserves, you know, if you remember,

160
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 10: I filled them up, and then I had a deal

161
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 10: to go at the highest level, a level that's ever

162
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 10: been and Schumer and the Democrats for twenty five dollars

163
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 10: and it was turned down. You remember that, Peter, almost

164
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 10: before your time, but not quite, but it was. We

165
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 10: had a deal at twenty five dollars. Think of that,

166
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 10: twenty five dollars a barrel, and the Democrats turned it down.

167
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 10: We're gonna fill it, We're gonna tap it out like

168
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 10: it's never been. But they turned that down, and now

169
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 10: it's a lot higher.

170
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 3: So the US is going to release one hundred and

171
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 3: seventy two million barrels of oil from the strategic petroleum reserve.

172
00:08:58,400 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 4: But there's a lot of people that are going to

173
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:00,559
Speaker 4: blame Trump.

174
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 3: No matter what I mean, releasing the reserves, that's going

175
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 3: to be a temporary fix. It's not going to make

176
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 3: the gas prices go down forever, permanently. There's got to

177
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 3: be a longer term solution. However, forty eight percent of

178
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,839
Speaker 3: Americans blame Trump for higher gas prices more than any

179
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 3: other factor.

180
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 9: Well, this is one of the rare occasions where they're

181
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,559
Speaker 9: probably right. Look, Trump did decide to have this military

182
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 9: operation in Iran, and the reason why gas prices have

183
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 9: gone up is because of that military operation in Iran.

184
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,439
Speaker 9: Most of the time presidents really don't have that much

185
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 9: of a dramatic control over the day to day prices

186
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,319
Speaker 9: of gas. And I saw some reporting and some chatter

187
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 9: yesterday and the day before talking about how, you know,

188
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 9: we're on the verge of another nineteen seventy nine oil

189
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 9: crisis and we're going to see lines at the gas

190
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,959
Speaker 9: that the world has totally changed since nineteen seventy nine.

191
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 9: The world is much better equipped to handle something like this.

192
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,839
Speaker 9: We saw reports that Saudi Arabia is now routing their

193
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 9: oil shipments away from the Strait of Horror moves.

194
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 8: They've got other options. And we are the.

195
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 9: Largest oil producer in the world, world now here in

196
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 9: the United States dramatically different from how things set off

197
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 9: in nineteen seventy nine. So yes, there is going to

198
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:10,199
Speaker 9: be pain. Yes, this is gonna suck. But these comparisons

199
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 9: that we're starting to see in this panic, you know,

200
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 9: you know, figuratively panic in the streets and talking about

201
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,719
Speaker 9: going back to the nineteen seventy nine oil crisis. I mean,

202
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 9: we had a completely inept, asleep at the wheel president

203
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 9: in nineteen seventy nine. The world is completely different. So

204
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 9: it is going to be a temporary blip. It is

205
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 9: not going to be great, it's not going to be fun,

206
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 9: but it's also not going to be nineteen seventy nine

207
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 9: all over again.

208
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 3: So far, the US has already spent eleven point three

209
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 3: billion dollars. That happened just in the first week with

210
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 3: this war Operation Epic Fury with Iran.

211
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 4: And we'll talk about.

212
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 3: Where the money went, what you could be spending that

213
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 3: money on instead, ran Paul in his funny math in

214
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:53,200
Speaker 3: DC Plus. We have to talk about those iconic blue

215
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 3: envelopes containing tickets for this year's any five hundred they

216
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 3: have been sent out.

217
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 4: That's all on the way from ninety two WIBC. Some

218
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,680
Speaker 4: people call me to the space come. It's so much money.

219
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 4: It's just so much money.

220
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 3: We can't afford anything until we can afford Operation Epic Fury.

221
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 3: Eleven point three billion dollars spent in the very first week,

222
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 3: and that figure mainly reflects weapons used and the immediate

223
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 3: military operations, not long term cost. It doesn't It doesn't

224
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 3: account for any future expenses of troop deployments, medical care repairs,

225
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,079
Speaker 3: or rebuilding of stockpiles.

226
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 4: That's just what we have currently spent so much money.

227
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,439
Speaker 9: Yeah, oh hey, for as much money it is as

228
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 9: it is, it's still less money that was part of

229
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 9: the Somali daycare fraud in Minneapolis that's been reported up

230
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 9: to nineteen billion dollars, so we haven't even gotten there yet.

231
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 4: Yeah.

232
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 8: I mean, anything our military does is going to be expensive.

233
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 9: That's what happens when you got the mess military in

234
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 9: the world, and aircraft care and Tomahawk missiles and F

235
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 9: thirty five's are pretty expensive. And I'm not trying to

236
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 9: trivialize the amount of money that we're going to spend

237
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,199
Speaker 9: on this on this war that we're in the middle

238
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 9: of right now. But we're already in it. We're here,

239
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 9: so let's finish the job.

240
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 8: Let's do it.

241
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 9: Let's spend whatever it takes to do this, right so

242
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 9: that we're not doing this again in five or ten years.

243
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 9: So the dollars spent so far is not something I'm

244
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 9: overly concerned about right now.

245
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 3: So you've got let's see here, if instead of spending

246
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 3: that money on Operation Epic Fury, what could you have done?

247
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 4: You could have given everybody on Earth a dollar.

248
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 3: Forty You could have given everybody in the United States

249
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 3: thirty three dollars and twelve cents. You the military could

250
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 3: have purchased one hundred and seventy four FC sixteen fighter jets.

251
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 4: They could have purchased.

252
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 3: Four five hundred and twenty Tomahawk cruise missiles. They could

253
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 3: fund federal highway infrastructure programs for a year where they

254
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,079
Speaker 3: could fund the National Park System for three and a

255
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 3: half years.

256
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 9: Wow, the National Park System has a budget of over

257
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 9: three billion year.

258
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 2: Yeah.

259
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 9: Wow, that's a lot more than what I It's a

260
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 9: lot more than what I would have expected. Again, I'm

261
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 9: not trying to trivialize the amount of money that we're

262
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 9: spending on it. It's going to be expensive, but we're

263
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 9: in this thing now, and that's what I really.

264
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 4: The worst thing that you can do is.

265
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 9: Stop short, get spooked, back out, do half measures.

266
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 8: We are in it.

267
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,679
Speaker 9: Whether you agree with this or not, we are in it.

268
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 9: So let's go all the way. Let's finish it. Let's

269
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 9: accomplish what Trump wants to accomplish. Because if he can

270
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,720
Speaker 9: do what he has said that he set out to do,

271
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:41,199
Speaker 9: if he can you know, create regime change, keep them

272
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 9: from building a nuclear weapon, eliminate all of you know,

273
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,199
Speaker 9: as many of their missiles and missile launchers, and their

274
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 9: ability to inflict pain on their neighbors, we can do

275
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 9: those three things. If in four months from now we

276
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,959
Speaker 9: can look back and say, look, we did those three

277
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 9: big things, the vast majority of American people sit here

278
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 9: and say, okay, yeah, that was worth it. And yeah,

279
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 9: I understand that it does you know, four hundred billion

280
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 9: dollars or whatever the cost ends up needing to be

281
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 9: about this, But I think most Americans will sit back

282
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 9: and say, Okay, that was worth it. We got what

283
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 9: we needed out of this. Now let's bring everybody home.

284
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 9: Let's let the you know, Israel and Saudi Arabia and Kuwait,

285
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 9: they can manage that neighborhood now going forward, and we

286
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 9: can focus on what's next.

287
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 3: So here is Senator Ran Paul and he's talking about

288
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 3: the funny math that happens in Washington.

289
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 8: D C.

290
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 11: Last summer, we gave an extra seventy five billion dollars

291
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 11: to Homeland Security. Forty five billion was for a wall,

292
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 11: and I asked the question, how much does a wall

293
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 11: cost if you type it in a search engine. The government,

294
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 11: our government says it cost about six to eight million

295
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 11: dollars a mile. That would be about six to eight billion.

296
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 11: Why did they get forty six pillion? Why did we

297
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 11: spend two hundred and twenty million dollars on ads and

298
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 11: ad campaign that went to the husband's company of the

299
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 11: person running the PR for the Department hon and Security.

300
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 11: It was a secondary bid to avoid competitive bidding from

301
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 11: a shell corporation that was is seven days before this happened.

302
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 11: There needs to be somebody up here, and I'm proud

303
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 11: to be one of the people ask questions about money,

304
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 11: and I'm just not a rubber stamp for more debt.

305
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 4: Okay, but.

306
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 3: Let's talk about the money that was spent under the Democrats.

307
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 3: He's always complaining about how he doesn't want to spend

308
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 3: more money, and he calls himself a Republican. However, there

309
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 3: were thousands of dollars spent on illegals in the country.

310
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, billions of dollars spent on illegals.

311
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 9: Of course. Look, these are all politicians. They're all going

312
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 9: to want to spend all of your money. And by

313
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 9: the way, once they spend all the money they can

314
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 9: take from you, they're gonna take some more money and

315
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 9: then they're gonna spend that too. And I wish that

316
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,480
Speaker 9: the Republicans weren't like that, but they are. I give

317
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 9: you exhibit A the Big Beautiful Bill last year. That's

318
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 9: what the Republicans did. They got the House, they got

319
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 9: the Congress, they got the White House, and what they

320
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 9: spent all of their political capital from that election last

321
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 9: year on passing the Big Beautiful Bill, which will add

322
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 9: an additional five trillion dollar to our national debt, despite

323
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 9: the fact that part of the national party platform of

324
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 9: the Republicans is fiscal conservatism. They are all politicians. They

325
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 9: are all going to spend all the money they can

326
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 9: get their hands on, and then they're going to print

327
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 9: some more and spend some more.

328
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 4: I feel like quoting the Dave Matthews band right now.

329
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 4: They all do it the same way.

330
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 9: AT's marching, Yes hear from the Dave Matthews band I

331
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 9: picked up on that.

332
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 8: But they do.

333
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 9: And that's what's so frustrating about Republicans, and that's why

334
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 9: so many of us are disillusioned about party politics because

335
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 9: they say that on the campaign trail that they're going

336
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 9: to do X, Y and Z, and they get in office.

337
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 8: And maybe they do X, but they don't do why.

338
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 9: Oh and by the way, Z is spending And we're

339
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 9: going to spend just like Joe Biden did.

340
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 8: In fact, we're gonna spend even more than Joe Biden did.

341
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, no kidding, Okay.

342
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 3: So when you hear about the billions being spent on war,

343
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 3: remember there's also a human cost. A US Air Force

344
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 3: CASEY one thirty five tanker refueling aircraft. It crashed into

345
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 3: western Iraq yesterday. It was supporting US operations connected to

346
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 3: the war against Iran. Four of the six crew members

347
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 3: on board have been confirmed dead. And that crash happened

348
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 3: during Operation Epic Fury, and it happened during in what

349
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 3: is described as friendly airspace.

350
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,919
Speaker 9: Well, Iraq is friendly airspace quote unquote friendly airspace, and

351
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 9: that's the airspace where this event took place. At these

352
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 9: C one thirty refueling planes. These aren't fighter planes, they

353
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 9: don't have ejection seats in them, and we're fortunate that

354
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 9: two of those crew members ended up living. And it

355
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,640
Speaker 9: always brings you back to this that you think about

356
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:34,199
Speaker 9: when you send our military troops overseas and conflict, and

357
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 9: you know there's going to be certain number of them

358
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 9: that aren't going to make at home, but the fact

359
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 9: that this is non combat related always seems to hit

360
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 9: a little bit different. We had the issues of a

361
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 9: couple of planes getting shot down by friendly fire.

362
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 8: Those pilots fortunately survived, but.

363
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:52,719
Speaker 9: It is always frustrating but absolutely inevitable that you're going

364
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 9: to see a loss of life just through the fog

365
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 9: of war as it relates to friendly fire and non

366
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,360
Speaker 9: combat operations like this plane yesterday.

367
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, the US Central Command said the incident was not

368
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:04,399
Speaker 3: caused by hostile fire or even friendly fire, and the

369
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 3: exact cause is still under investigation. You're listening to ninety

370
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 3: three WYBC Cash It's being reported that Cash Betel is

371
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:28,640
Speaker 3: going to outsource FBI training to UFC fighters. YEP, UFC

372
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 3: fighters are going to be training perspective FBI agents.

373
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 4: I think this.

374
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 9: Goes back to everything that we've seen with the Trump

375
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 9: administration and that they're willing to do things differently. Look,

376
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 9: and most of what I've talked about on that is, hey,

377
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 9: look what we've been doing before isn't working, So let's

378
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 9: give Trump a little leeway to try something different because

379
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 9: it wasn't working before. I can't say that specifically about

380
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 9: this because I don't know how FBI agents were traditionally trained.

381
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 9: It looked like they were trained in house, and I

382
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 9: don't know if that training was good or not. But

383
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 9: I think it's interesting that they want to partner with UFC,

384
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 9: and I can I can see one massive benefit from

385
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,880
Speaker 9: that immediately, and that is recruiting new FBI agents.

386
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 3: Well, not only that, but I can see the benefit

387
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,479
Speaker 3: that not only are they going to get combat training,

388
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 3: but then they're going to get mixed martial arts techniques

389
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,159
Speaker 3: that the UFC fighters have. I mean, you have to

390
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 3: you have to be intellectually honest about this. UFC fighters

391
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:24,879
Speaker 3: are some of the toughest athletes alive.

392
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 12: Oh oh, absolutely, I don't know any what is the

393
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 12: problem with having federal agents going to train with them

394
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 12: to learn some of their smart moves, like the mixed

395
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 12: martial arts I mean, I think it's it's having them

396
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 12: be combat ready on all levels, not just having them

397
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 12: be desk trained well.

398
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,199
Speaker 9: And I so back to my point about how I

399
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,639
Speaker 9: think this is great for recruiting new FBI agents. I mean,

400
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 9: if I was a young guy, you know, straight out

401
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 9: of college and looking at my options, and maybe I'll

402
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:52,919
Speaker 9: go to the FBI and maybe I'll do something it's different,

403
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 9: and I can see I'll go to the FI.

404
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 4: Maybe I'll be a UFC fighter.

405
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,880
Speaker 9: No, no, no, Well but I look at this and say, oh,

406
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 9: if I go in the FBI, I'm gonna get to

407
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 9: do UFC type training. Yeah, that sounds pretty cool. Sign

408
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 9: me up for that. And if I'm already in the FBI, Okay,

409
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 9: I can do the same sort of training that every

410
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,400
Speaker 9: FBI agent's had for the last forty or fifty sixty

411
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 9: years here, or maybe I get to do something new

412
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,160
Speaker 9: and different here and train with UFC. I also think

413
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 9: it's good it's good for these governmental agencies to partner

414
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:26,160
Speaker 9: when it makes sense with certain third parties like this,

415
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,640
Speaker 9: because I think it just it integrates those two. Look,

416
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,680
Speaker 9: if you're a UFC fan and you find out that

417
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 9: the FBI is going to be training with UFC fighters.

418
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 9: You're probably going to have a better positive image of

419
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,439
Speaker 9: the FBI because of that, and I think that is

420
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 9: ultimately a good thing.

421
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, so you got to turning part of the FBI

422
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:51,400
Speaker 3: Academy into an UFC style seminar may seem like it's

423
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 3: a bit over the top. Some people may say, oh,

424
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 3: this is just a promotion of the event that's coming

425
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 3: up at the White House.

426
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 4: But maybe it's.

427
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 3: A little bit about real world toughness and fitness should

428
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,360
Speaker 3: not be an afterthought for these agents.

429
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 4: The seminar.

430
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:08,119
Speaker 3: It's meant to give the agents insight into elite fining

431
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 3: fighting training techniques and also condition them for preparedness, and

432
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 3: those are all good things that you want your FBI

433
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:17,640
Speaker 3: agents to have.

434
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,479
Speaker 9: I think it's I think it's a real uh you know,

435
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:24,719
Speaker 9: low iq lazy take to hear this headline and immediately

436
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,639
Speaker 9: dismiss this as something that the government should be doing. Again,

437
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 9: I'm willing to give many in the Trump administration a

438
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 9: pass on a lot of things to try new things

439
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 9: and see if they work. Now, you know, if this

440
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 9: doesn't work, great, analyze it like you should analyze anything

441
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 9: else you're doing. You try this out. Is it accomplish

442
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,120
Speaker 9: what you want to accomplish. If yes, okay, then maybe

443
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 9: you continue it. But if no, okay, let's let's put

444
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 9: it in the dustbin.

445
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 8: And move on to whatever's next and try something else.

446
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 3: It's being built as a seminar. This isn't like some

447
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 3: long term partnership or.

448
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 9: A complete and total replacement for all the physical and

449
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 9: fighting training that the FBI does. I think this is

450
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 9: I think this is great. I think it's fun. I

451
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 9: think I would be excited if I was a brand

452
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,359
Speaker 9: new FBI recruit or an existing member of the FBI.

453
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,160
Speaker 8: It's a good move by the Trumpet, missus.

454
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 9: Now you use everything at your disposal, absolutely every tool available.

455
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 3: So we've still got real mail tickets going out, and

456
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 3: that's the kind of tradition you just don't see everywhere anymore.

457
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 3: I'm talking about the blue envelopes for the Indianapolis. Five

458
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:27,680
Speaker 3: hundred those tickets were mailed out yesterday. Over thirty three

459
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 3: thousand envelopes were sent to fans in all fifty US

460
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,880
Speaker 3: states thirty two countries. Inside the envelopes were more than

461
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 3: two hundred twenty five thousand items, including one hundred and

462
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 3: seventy three thousand race day tickets for the one hundred

463
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 3: and tenth Indy five hundred took about forty four days

464
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 3: for them to prepare the tickets by hand before mailing.

465
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:53,880
Speaker 3: Can you imagine that that that's tradition, that's the ND

466
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:58,439
Speaker 3: five hundred. You actually get a physical ticket in the mail,

467
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,359
Speaker 3: and when that happens, you know, the Indy five hundred

468
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 3: still means something real, it's not just a digital ticket stub.

469
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, starting to get excited.

470
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,240
Speaker 9: I mean we're about halfway through March now May is

471
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 9: just around six weeks away, and starting to get hyped

472
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 9: up for the Indy five hundred. But I do love

473
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 9: this story that talked about how they still do physical

474
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:19,200
Speaker 9: tickets because many sporting events today you can't get a

475
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 9: physical ticket even if you want one, Like I get that,

476
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 9: most of them are digital and for most people that's

477
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 9: the most convenient. But if you wanted a physical ticket

478
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:27,919
Speaker 9: for a lot of events, you can go to customer

479
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,680
Speaker 9: service and they're like, yeah, no, we don't do that anymore.

480
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 9: So the fact that the Indy five hundred does this

481
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 9: and is so adamant about sticking with it when everybody

482
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 9: else is going digital. In fact, you know, President Doug

483
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,879
Speaker 9: bole said, you know, he said, quote one of the

484
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:45,959
Speaker 9: things that we love so much about the Indianapolis five

485
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 9: hundred is the fact that you still get a paper ticket.

486
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 9: I remember when I was a kid, actually even well

487
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 9: into my twenties, any concert, any sporting event, any sort

488
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 9: of thing that I went to that required a ticket,

489
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 9: I held on to them. Yeah, I still got a

490
00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 9: box full.

491
00:23:58,400 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 4: Of tickets to put it up on your peg board.

492
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 9: I did not have a peg board, but yeah, I

493
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 9: mean a lot of people put them up on their

494
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 9: peg board or display them. I've got a shoe box

495
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 9: full of ticket stubs from all these events that I

496
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 9: went to, and there is this kind of you do

497
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 9: feel that you're missing something when.

498
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 8: You go to a big event.

499
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 9: Now, look, changible, Well, I'm not saying that I've got

500
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 9: to have a paper ticket for a Pacers game, you know,

501
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 9: versus the you know, Charlotte Hornets on a Tuesday in January. Okay,

502
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 9: that's just a generic regular season game. Nothing against the

503
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 9: regular season NBA, but not something that you sit here

504
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 9: and say, oh, I've got.

505
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 8: To commemorate that, and I want to hold onto this

506
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 8: for the rest of my life. But the five hundred

507
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 8: is a big.

508
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 4: Deal, special day.

509
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 9: It's once a year, and so you want to be

510
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:40,399
Speaker 9: able to sit back and look at those things and

511
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 9: have something you could hold in your hand and go,

512
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 9: oh gosh. I remember this was the twenty twenty one

513
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 9: Indy five hundred that was at the height of the pandemic,

514
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,159
Speaker 9: and they only allowed half the people in the in

515
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 9: the in the building that day, and it was such

516
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 9: a different experience, but it was still great and I

517
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:58,160
Speaker 9: remember that. And by the way, a lot of these

518
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 9: tickets from big events are pretty collectible too and sell

519
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 9: for a lot of money. Not so much you know,

520
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 9: modern events from the last four or five years, but

521
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 9: you go back to Michael Jordan games from the eighties

522
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,159
Speaker 9: and certain Super Bowls and playoff games. If you've got

523
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,919
Speaker 9: those tickets in good shape, they can sell for you know,

524
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 9: thousands and thousands of dollars.

525
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, many fans still preferring the physical paper tickets. And

526
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,920
Speaker 3: the eighty five hundred scheduled for Sunday, May twenty four.

527
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 9: And by the way, I still have you on record

528
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 9: as agreeing to go to the snake pit with me

529
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 9: this year, so don't think that I haven't forgot about that.

530
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 9: I'm not going to let that go. It is on

531
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 9: my radar. I've never gone to the snake Pit. I've

532
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 9: always wanted to do it. You said you would go

533
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 9: to your year, you said you would go with me,

534
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 9: and so I'm going to hold you to that. And

535
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 9: I'm as excited about the snake Pit as i am about.

536
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:47,120
Speaker 8: The race this year. I cannot wait.

537
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,919
Speaker 3: In more sports news, Travis Kelcey, he announced that he

538
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 3: is not retiring. Surprise to some people thought maybe, uh,

539
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 3: you know what, He's going to get married to Taylor Swift.

540
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 8: This is it.

541
00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 4: They're going to go live happily ever after.

542
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 3: But on his New Heights podcast, he said, nope, I'm

543
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 3: gonna play some more.

544
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 8: Let's get to the actual biggest news coming out. Trams

545
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 8: is coming back for year fourteen.

546
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 13: Yeah, baby, Well what point did you know for sure?

547
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:19,679
Speaker 13: You were coming back about midway through the season, So

548
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 13: what were you waiting on?

549
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:20,800
Speaker 9: Then?

550
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 8: You know, I think I was taking Jason Kelsey's advice.

551
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 14: I was taking the advice to take a step back,

552
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,159
Speaker 14: because you know, you got to let the emotions clear,

553
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 14: and you got to have a clear head. I've made

554
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:35,920
Speaker 14: decisions based off of emotions, and you know they haven't

555
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,439
Speaker 14: always played out the right way, So I think taking

556
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 14: a step back, letting the emotions settle down, the frustrations

557
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 14: from the season. Of course I want to come back.

558
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,919
Speaker 13: Of course I don't want to end my career not

559
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 13: making the playoffs and not having one of the best years.

560
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 13: It still felt like I was hungry enough to get

561
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 13: back at it, And obviously there's still a little bit

562
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 13: of that gridd and that emotion that you know, I've

563
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,280
Speaker 13: hated the way that it ended last year. I want

564
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 13: to I want to make it right.

565
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,119
Speaker 8: You know. Yeah, absolutely, he.

566
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 3: Knew he was going to go back mid season last year,

567
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 3: and instead he just dragged it out and tried to

568
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 3: tease everybody.

569
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 8: Well, I think he talked a lot.

570
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 4: That's such a look at me sort of thing he did.

571
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 9: He talked a little bit more on that show about

572
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 9: how he got a lot of advice from not only

573
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 9: his brother who was in the NFL for him a

574
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 9: long for a long time, but other you know, former

575
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:25,400
Speaker 9: veteran players who had retired and and and the feedback

576
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 9: that he got was, oh, that's great that you made

577
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 9: that decision midway through the season, but don't finalize it yet.

578
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 8: Think about it.

579
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,680
Speaker 9: Finish the season, wait for the season to be over,

580
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,240
Speaker 9: take a couple of months, reset your brain, and if

581
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 9: you still think that you want to, you know, go

582
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 9: out and do another season, great, make that final decision.

583
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,359
Speaker 8: Then I think, what's what's fascinating about this?

584
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 9: So many big fans of the NFL me included, Well,

585
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 9: for the reasons you just laid out at the beginning

586
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 9: of the story that we talked about.

587
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 8: You know, he got engaged to Taylor Swift.

588
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 9: He's getting old, he's not quite He's nowhere near the

589
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,480
Speaker 9: best tight end in the NFL anymore.

590
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,480
Speaker 8: They did not have a very good season. I mean, all.

591
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:04,119
Speaker 9: Signs pointed toward him retiring, and for him to not

592
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,919
Speaker 9: retire is fascinating. Now it'll be interesting to see if

593
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 9: the Chiefs can can can come back from their disastrous

594
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 9: season last year where they didn't even make the playoffs.

595
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:16,280
Speaker 9: Of course, Patrick Mahomes will be there. They have been

596
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,920
Speaker 9: talking about wanting to target Notre Dame running back Jeremiah

597
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 9: Love in the NFL draft. The problem there is the

598
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 9: Chiefs don't draft until the ninth pick in the first round,

599
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 9: and Jeremiah Love.

600
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 4: He's gonna go before he's gonna go way.

601
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 9: Before the ninth pick. It's probably he's probably gonna be

602
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 9: around fifth or six. So if the Chiefs want to

603
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,200
Speaker 9: pick up Notre Dame running back Jeremiah Love, they're gonna

604
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 9: have to trade up to get him.

605
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 8: But good for Travis kelcey. I guess go out there

606
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 8: and do it again.

607
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 4: I'm a I go out there and get another paycheck.

608
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,960
Speaker 9: I've never been a fan of the theory that you

609
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 9: should retire on top.

610
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 8: Oh, go out on top? No, no, no. If this is.

611
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 9: Something you love and you love doing, you pull a

612
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 9: Tom Brady and you play until your body physically cannot

613
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,479
Speaker 9: play one more minute. You play until they tell you,

614
00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 9: I'm sorry, you've got to go. We're gonna uninvite you to.

615
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 10: Uh.

616
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 4: If you've got the passion, keep on going.

617
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 9: I still got it, Go and do it. This retiring

618
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 9: on top junk. I never bought into that, never cared

619
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 9: for it.

620
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 4: Travis self.

621
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 3: Kelsey also going to serve as the brand ambassador for

622
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 3: six Flags theme parks nationwide. Apparently he's always been a

623
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 3: huge fan of the amusement parks and they He's part

624
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 3: of the investment group that acquired about nine percent stake

625
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 3: in all six flags the last October, and now he's

626
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 3: going to put his face to it. He's going to

627
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 3: participate in all the marketing initiatives across the company.

628
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 9: So the interesting thing about that story is we've seen

629
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 9: this a lot the last ten years from both celebrities

630
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 9: and athletes that no longer are they just saying, Hey,

631
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 9: I'm going to be the spokesperson and you just write

632
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 9: me a big check.

633
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 8: He's got an ownership stake right in it.

634
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 4: He's putting his money in.

635
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,719
Speaker 9: That's a big deal that I want a piece of

636
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 9: equity because if this thing takes off, I've got a

637
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 9: chance of making ten times more money on the ownership

638
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 9: portion of it, rather than the you know, two or

639
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 9: three or five million dollar check that you'll cut to

640
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 9: me to be in your commercial.

641
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 4: A lot of people are saying.

642
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 3: That they are at their peak max for Travis kelce

643
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 3: his mom, his brother, his sister in law, his fourteenth season.

644
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 4: It's they've just had enough of this guy already.

645
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 8: Oh, I get that.

646
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 9: Travis Kelcey's certainly probably been overexposed the last few years.

647
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 9: I mean, you can't turn anywhere. Well, we heard it

648
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 9: earlier podcast earlier this week, and this kind of blew

649
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 9: up on social media. There was this TMZ reported a

650
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 9: story about how Donna Kelcey, Travis Kelcey's mom is remodeling

651
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 9: her Florida home exactly, and everybody was like, that's the

652
00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 9: i'm a story I've ever heard in my life.

653
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 8: Why is TMZ reporting on this? So, yes, we are

654
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 8: all we've seen too much of the Kelsey's at this point.

655
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 8: We could probably use a little break, a little bit less.

656
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 9: But you know, for me, as long as they stick

657
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 9: to it on the field, that's what I'm excited about.

658
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 8: I don't need all the rest of the nonsense off

659
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 8: the field.

660
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 3: Okay, this guy's staying on the field, and he's also

661
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 3: not going to be staying on the sidelines. NBC has

662
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 3: informed Tony Dungee that he won't be back with Football

663
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,239
Speaker 3: Night in America this fall. He's seventy years old and

664
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 3: spent the previous seventeen seasons as a mainstay of the program.

665
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 9: And this has caught some people by surprise, and it's

666
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 9: been a little bit controversial because, I mean, it wasn't

667
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 9: like a mutual decision. They essentially asked Tony Dungee to

668
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 9: leave the show a couple things about this. He did

669
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,959
Speaker 9: the pregame show for Sunday Night Football. That is the

670
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 9: number one show not only in sports and in football,

671
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,959
Speaker 9: but in the country in television. So the stakes are

672
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 9: pretty high and there's a lot on the line, and

673
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 9: he's been doing it for seventeen years, so it's not

674
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 9: a surprise that NBC's like, you know, we've got to

675
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 9: have this. We got to be at the top of

676
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 9: our game for Sunday Night Football, and we just got

677
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 9: to make some changes. But here's the other thing that's

678
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 9: been going on with Tony Dungee is he was rumored

679
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:46,480
Speaker 9: to be part of this group of people on the

680
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 9: Pro Football Hall of Fame voting committee that kept Bill

681
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,960
Speaker 9: belichecking out, and so he was kind of drawn into

682
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 9: that controversy. I don't know if that played a factor

683
00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,040
Speaker 9: into NBC, you know, passing on him coming back for

684
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 9: his eighteenth season, But a lot of people, you know,

685
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 9: the way Tony Dungee it was being talked about being

686
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 9: involved in that left a bad taste in a lot

687
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:09,160
Speaker 9: of people.

688
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 4: It could just be a rebrand, a refresher. People like

689
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 4: to do that.

690
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 3: Sometimes you're listening to ninety three WIBC, every time we

691
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,040
Speaker 3: go to the Land Brewing in Fountain Square or Bronzini

692
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 3: Speedway or Big Woods and Speedway, we typically have to

693
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 3: split the meal because it's just so much food for

694
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 3: the both of us.

695
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 4: And it's cheaper that way too.

696
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,120
Speaker 9: Yeah, in my younger days, in my twenties, I could

697
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 9: throw down food that way. It's funny how how things

698
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 9: change when you get older. I can't eat as much

699
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 9: as I used to, but yes, big portions at those places.

700
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 4: That's a new trend. Restaurants are now shrinking their plates.

701
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 3: It's they're completely redefining the American dining culture. And it's

702
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:58,520
Speaker 3: because so many people are taking appetite suppressing drugs.

703
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 4: It's big chains to independent spots, all of them.

704
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 3: They're adding smaller portion options on their menu and this

705
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 3: is the new trend across the industry.

706
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 4: They're calling them petite meals.

707
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 3: They're designed for people who want less food, healthier choices,

708
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 3: and lower costs when dining out. That's a big one

709
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 3: for me. It's become so expensive to eat out. Half

710
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 3: the time, I'm like, oh no, well, it's just it's

711
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 3: the experience isn't worth the cost. But a lot of

712
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 3: restaurants are doing this for people who are still dining out,

713
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 3: they're just not eating as much. Their menus are actually

714
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 3: branding it as GLP one friendly dishes.

715
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,080
Speaker 9: I think it makes a lot of sense because I've

716
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 9: never taken GLP ones like ozebic or with GOVI, but

717
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 9: I know people that have, and that's what they've told me,

718
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,600
Speaker 9: that you just you just don't have the appetite anymore,

719
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 9: and they eat dramatically less.

720
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 8: They're like, you know, they eat like a small little.

721
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 9: Plate of food and they're like, oh my god, I'm

722
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 9: so full, I'm not going to eat for the rest

723
00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 9: of the day now. So yeah, I think this is

724
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 9: probably gonna be a bigger trend as more and more

725
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 9: people get on board with with GLP ones. Now me,

726
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 9: it's because of my age. I'm just older and can't

727
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,760
Speaker 9: you know, throw it down like I used to anymore.

728
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 3: So the restaurants are hoping that the smaller portions are

729
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 3: going to meet customers' needs, meet.

730
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 4: Them where they are.

731
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 3: But that also is for the budget conscience diner and

732
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 3: people who are focused on their health and their weight.

733
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,720
Speaker 3: So the next time you go out you might see

734
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 3: some smaller meals that that's kind of that good and

735
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,720
Speaker 3: the bad thing, right, because when you don't eat everything

736
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:35,239
Speaker 3: that's on your plate, what do you do?

737
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,400
Speaker 4: You get your doggy bag and take it home with you.

738
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 8: Yeah.

739
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,280
Speaker 9: Hey, you remember, like fifteen twenty years ago when tapis

740
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 9: restaurants were the big thing.

741
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 8: You had those little plates. I love that because you

742
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:45,959
Speaker 8: can get five or six little plates trying a little

743
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 8: bit of everybody, and if.

744
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 9: You wanted more, okay, you find you'll get another order

745
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:49,920
Speaker 9: of steak bites.

746
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:51,440
Speaker 8: But it wasn't this big plate.

747
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:51,879
Speaker 4: Yep.

748
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 3: Now you're going to see petit plates or GLP one

749
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,880
Speaker 3: friendly dishes at your favorite restaurant.

750
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 4: You're listening to ninety three WI have you see Good morning,
