But to your point, 44 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 3: he could have come out and said thoughts and prayers 45 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 3: for the victim as well, and it would have been fine. 46 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 3: Now you've got Ryan Mehres coming out and he's talking, 47 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 3: and now we've got a feud going on between the 48 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 3: governor and Rick Snyder from the FOP and the Marion 49 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 3: County Prosecutor's office, and everybody's saying, oh, now you've got 50 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,919 Speaker 3: Ryan Mehers talking, right, because it wasn't the prosecutor's office 51 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 3: that made a mistake, it wasn't the IMPD that made 52 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 3: a mistake. It was something else. And now he's talking 53 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 3: because this is a national story and he's got to 54 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 3: get his face out there now. 55 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 1: Well, and you gave him a win by leading the tweet. 56 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: All you had. 57 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 2: What I had to do is retweet the thing and say, hey, Sanchez, 58 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:18,239 Speaker 2: the aggressor Indianapolis is still super violent. This guy allegedly 59 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 2: was super violent. And it doesn't matter whether it's a 60 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 2: celebrity or whatever. We just keep seeing one headline after 61 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 2: another about violence in the city of Indianapol. 62 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: Well that's the thing. 63 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 3: When you woke up Saturday morning and you saw the 64 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 3: headline about somebody being stabbed downtown, you thought well, yeah, okay, 65 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 3: that's on par You weren't surprised by that at all. 66 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 2: No, And it's like the people who are flexing on 67 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 2: go CCCCC. Well, it's no different than when the judges 68 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 2: what this been. Were you here when the judges thing 69 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 2: happened when the judges were outside the strip club? 70 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: Was that before you? Okay, so this has been several 71 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: years ago. 72 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 3: Now. 73 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 2: There were these judges who are in town for some 74 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 2: sort of conference. Allegedly they had been having a little 75 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 2: bit of fun, like Indiana judges. There's a judge's conference 76 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 2: or whatever, and very early in the morning, they're outside 77 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 2: a local dancing establishment and they get lippy with some person. 78 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 2: I'm trying to do this all from memory now it's 79 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 2: been several years ago. And then some physical altercation takes 80 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 2: place and people are injured, and you know, the response 81 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 2: on that, of course, was well, Indianapolis is super violent, 82 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 2: which it is, no doubt, blah blah blah. But then 83 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 2: you realize, hey, everybody was kind of an a hole 84 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 2: in the situation. It seemed like, and I'm trying to 85 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 2: remember the news reports off the top of my head, 86 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 2: and some bad stuff happened, but the point is it 87 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 2: was a black eye, another high profile act of violence 88 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 2: happening in the city of Indianapolis, which further feeds the 89 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 2: narrative right. 90 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: And so. 91 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 2: I just found that the most fascinating thing that there 92 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 2: were people who were vehemently trying to I do like 93 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 2: some sort of victory lap or the fact that it 94 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 2: was allegedly Sanchez being the aggressor rather than this guy 95 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 2: who appears to have gotten just the victim of some 96 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 2: guy being totally out of control. It's like, no, it 97 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 2: doesn't matter, it doesn't matter who the aggressor was. It's 98 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 2: another time Indianapolis is making the news over a high 99 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 2: profile act of violence. And whether it was Sanchez or 100 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 2: the other guy or the man in the moon, Indianapolis 101 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 2: is a hyper dangerous place and like a lot of 102 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,679 Speaker 2: the people, the WIBC, the conservative media guys are afraid 103 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 2: to go out. 104 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: It's like, no, I used to come downtown all the time. 105 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 2: I can vividly remember ten years ago walking at three 106 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 2: in the morning from a mass av back to downtown 107 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 2: and not thinking a thing about it. 108 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 3: You wouldn't do that today.

Cadora said that the 344 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 3: audit revealed a culture filled with conflict of interest and 345 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 3: that some officials were double dipping salaries. 346 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 1: I'm sure Todd Roket is going to get right on that. 347 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: I'm sure he's going to really mister lawed order.

Yes, poor lot of beautiful day. 369 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 5: Oh God, a beautiful everything. 370 00:18:58,160 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 2: Great news for all of us. As we've been telling 371 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 2: you for months, was going to happen on this program. 372 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 2: It's now official. Bo Bye, the son of Evan By 373 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,199 Speaker 2: has announced via an article in The Indie Star by 374 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 2: friend of the show James Briggs, that he is going 375 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 2: to run yes or secretary of State. 376 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 3: He is. We kind of had a feeling this was coming. 377 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 3: There was some speculation about what he was going to 378 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 3: run for and when he would announce it, and there 379 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 3: it is secretary of State. So he is a seventh 380 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 3: generation Hoosier, former captain in the US Marine Corps, Harvard 381 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 3: grad and an attorney twenty nine years old. 382 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, so this is fascinating on writing levels. One look 383 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 2: Diego Morales, the current Indiana Secretary of State. Whether it's 384 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 2: the sweetheart jobs to family members, whether it's no bid 385 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 2: contracts to mega donors, whether it's disappearing to a foreign 386 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 2: country for ten days and refusing to say who paid 387 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 2: for it, and then when you get called out on it, 388 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 2: shouting at people at Lincolnate. 389 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: Nott pay for India hoppey. 390 00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 2: Diego Morales is a dirty, dirty, rotten on ethical, corrupt individual. 391 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 2: And any person, regardless of your party affiliation, who considers 392 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 2: himself a part of decent society should want him nowhere 393 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 2: near that office because of the personal information. Whether you're 394 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 2: a business owner, a voter in the state, this is 395 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 2: the last guy that you should want being in that position. 396 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 2: And the Democrats, probably by sheer luck, finally, at least 397 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 2: on the surface, have nominated someone that has now he 398 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 2: could turn out to be a total turn of a 399 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 2: candidate or. 400 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: The arch Manning. I told you that this word I 401 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: say case. 402 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 2: Remember when I was the only person that was like, 403 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 2: what if arch Manning isn't really any good? Everyone's like, 404 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 2: oh gosh, what if Bobai actually sucks as a candidate, 405 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,400 Speaker 2: But the point is at least in terms of name 406 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 2: and pedigree and ability to raise money. Look, Diego may 407 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 2: not want to tell anybody who paid for that trip 408 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 2: to India, but the buys they've got them, they'll have 409 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 2: the money to figure it out. 410 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 3: They'll find out. And that's the point there. Even if 411 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 3: Bobai is not a great candidate, his father is not 412 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 3: going to allow him to fail. By says he's going 413 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 3: to call it corruption, wasteful spending, and government abuse. He 414 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 3: opposes excessive taxes. He wants to ensure secure and fair 415 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 3: elections and also support new businesses. But he said, I'm 416 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 3: running to be our secretary of State to fix a 417 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 3: corrupt office and take on a broken political system that 418 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 3: doesn't service. So he's saying, right there, Bobi gets in 419 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 3: that office, he's going to open up all the files 420 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 3: and see what's inside. 421 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 2: Well, that's why every person should have a vested interest. Look, 422 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 2: and I know David Shelton, who we like, is challenging 423 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 2: Diego at the convention. I think that's going to be 424 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 2: a pretty tough road for Shelton to win. 425 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 1: Hope he does. 426 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 2: Any person that can defeat Diego at any level, we 427 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 2: will all be better served. But the reality is you're 428 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 2: likely looking at this corrupt piece of garbage, Diego Morales, 429 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 2: who is propped up, supported and aided and abetted by 430 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,919 Speaker 2: the Republican Party. You cannot separate Diego from the Indiana 431 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 2: Republican Party because whether it's Braun or Micah or Rokeeda 432 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 2: or even the you know ones were kind of fond 433 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,199 Speaker 2: of people like Daniel Elliott, they all know what he is. 434 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 1: Every person in. 435 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 2: That building knows what Diego is, and they all won't 436 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 2: do a damn thing about it. So you can't separate 437 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 2: Diego from the Republican Party. Einhorn and Finkel, Finkel and Einhorn, 438 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 2: they are the same. And if Bobi gets in there, 439 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 2: the one thing we should all be cheering for is 440 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 2: he'll get access to all the information, all the emails, 441 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,679 Speaker 2: the servers. He will be able to open up and 442 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 2: show everybody how this cabal that currently runs the state 443 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 2: of Indiana how it operates. And you sign me up 444 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 2: for that casey every day of the week, okay. 445 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 3: So bo Bay said. The office has been used to 446 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 3: cut backdoor deals, our tax dollars, funding perks for politicians 447 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,360 Speaker 3: and insiders. In the case of. 448 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 1: Diego a lot of travel. 449 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,360 Speaker 3: He was the biggest spender of travel, as we discussed 450 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,160 Speaker 3: that last week. So it's out a field so far. 451 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 3: Who knew the secretary of State was such a popular position. 452 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 3: You've got Dave Shelton who is running. You've got Diego 453 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 3: Morales who is running. You also have a Blithe Potter. 454 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 3: She is a woman from I believe northwest Indiana who 455 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 3: is running on the Democrat side. She is going to 456 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 3: challenge Diego Morales as well. You also have Jamie Rittenauer 457 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,119 Speaker 3: who says that she is running. So a lot of 458 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 3: money will be spent to win this office, or in 459 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 3: some cases maybe not a lot of money because they 460 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 3: don't have it. 461 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 2: Well, what's interesting about the Republican side, It's just a 462 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 2: glorified fundraising operation now, unless they've changed it here in 463 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 2: the past weeks or whatever, the Republican Party forces these 464 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:49,399 Speaker 2: statewide candidates to pay a percentage of what the office pays, 465 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 2: and I think it's ten percent or it was ten percent. 466 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 2: That's how they keep the undesirables out of the out 467 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 2: of the delio. So if the office whatever secretary of 468 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 2: State pays now it's making up a number here they 469 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 2: get him huge raised. So I don't know what the 470 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 2: let's say it's one hundred ninety thousand dollars you've got 471 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 2: to come up with as a candidate, like nineteen grand 472 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 2: just to be able to run at the convention, to 473 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 2: file right, to be able to file. So case you know, 474 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 2: I remember I told you last week. I said, I've 475 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 2: been feeling a little a little downhearted lately, been feeling 476 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 2: a little downtrodden, a little sad about, like feeling like 477 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 2: we're not making a difference, and you know, we're doing 478 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 2: all this stuff and nothing ever changes. And then I 479 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:30,919 Speaker 2: told you, you know, I had this conversation with my 480 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 2: old man and he said, look, he said, in my 481 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,399 Speaker 2: job and his job was to put criminals back behind bars. 482 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: He said, I would get that. 483 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 2: Way, he said, And then and then something happened, something 484 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 2: would hit right, and you would that would that would 485 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 2: give you the strength you need to trudge forward. 486 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: Well, Casey, this is it. 487 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 2: This is going to be what I need the strength 488 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 2: necessary to trudch for it because I did a little math. 489 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 2: Yeah the little math. Wasn't great at math in high school, 490 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 2: but I did I did pull out my handied andy 491 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 2: cellular telephone and best as I can see. Diego Morales 492 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 2: beat Destiny Wells in twenty twenty two by about two 493 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty thousand votes. Now, it's hard to imagine 494 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 2: a worse candidate than Destiny Wells, so I think that's 495 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,880 Speaker 2: the low baseline of the most Diego could have won 496 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 2: by was about two hundred and fifty thousand votes. So 497 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 2: that means simple. Matt tells us that if one hundred 498 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:26,719 Speaker 2: and twenty five thousand people switch their vote, like if 499 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,880 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty five thousand people say I'm going 500 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 2: from this guy to this guy, then that person would 501 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 2: be the winner, and so over the next year. 502 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 1: My goal in life, the thing. 503 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 2: That will give me meaning and drive and a reason 504 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 2: to get up every morning, is to cost Diego Morales. 505 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 2: To find a way to use this well. Some people 506 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 2: say nobody listens, but some people say we're the most 507 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,120 Speaker 2: powerful media entity in the state. Wherever we are, all 508 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,959 Speaker 2: points in between, nobody listens are the most powerful, whatever 509 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 2: little power we may have the next year, because we're 510 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 2: basically a year from the election, to spend the next 511 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 2: year finding a way to cost Diego Morales in the 512 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 2: Indiana Republican Party one hundred and twenty five thousand votes. 513 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,120 Speaker 1: That is what will give me, meaning casey, there you go. 514 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 3: So bo Bye said, Morales is protecting a pretty good 515 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 3: thing for himself and his buddies at taxpayers expense, And 516 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:23,880 Speaker 3: I want. 517 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 1: To be there. 518 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 2: I don't know if you actually open an email server. 519 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 2: I don't know if you like pull a door and 520 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,880 Speaker 2: you open it up. All I want, though, is if 521 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 2: we find a way to keep Diego Morales from being 522 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 2: Secretary of State, I want to. 523 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 1: Be there that day that email server is open. 524 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 3: Do you think bo Bye will find out who paid 525 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 3: for India? Well, I'm he's got a pretty good shot 526 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 3: at it. 527 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 2: Right I'm guessing someone connected to him probably has already 528 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 2: started looking looking into that. But look, this is great. 529 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 2: It's going to be great for transparency. It's going to 530 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 2: be great to give the public an option. It's great 531 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 2: that the Democrats, finally, at least on paper, are are 532 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 2: are putting forth people that aren't complete unacceptable weirdos. Who 533 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 2: are I mean the article that Briggs did with this announcement. Look, 534 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 2: the kids pretty seasoned already right now. I was elected 535 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 2: at twenty seven, So this doesn't impress me the way 536 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 2: it might other people, right, because I had already done this. 537 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 2: But he was very adamant about talking, trying to put 538 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 2: people's minds that he's like. He said, look, voter IDs 539 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 2: are settled law. You're never gonna hear me as Secretary 540 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,439 Speaker 2: of State challenge it or take it on or whatever. 541 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:30,440 Speaker 1: It's accepted law. 542 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 2: And that's gonna be the real thing he's gonna have 543 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:38,160 Speaker 2: to do early on is present himself as an acceptable alternative. 544 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 2: And he's gonna have to tell the people in his 545 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 2: party to cut the crap. He's gonna have to tell 546 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 2: you this. The on demand abortion people put him in 547 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,719 Speaker 2: a corner. The men playing women's sports people put them 548 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 2: in a corner. The chop little kids being able to 549 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 2: chop off their penises group put them in a corner. 550 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 2: He's going to have to overcome that group because so 551 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 2: many people would say, well, yeah, Diego's totally corrupt and 552 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 2: unethical andlah blah blah. But boy can't risk hevin that 553 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 2: group of people in charge of anything. That's going to 554 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 2: be the major challenge for Boba. 555 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 3: I think he's also going to have to handle the 556 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 3: objection about his residents living in India. 557 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,400 Speaker 2: Look, I don't care if the guy lives in Zimbabwe. 558 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 2: If he's going to open up the servers and show 559 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,159 Speaker 2: her by how corrupt the Republicans are, sign me up, Casey. 560 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 3: His dad said that this is a new generation of 561 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 3: leadership and they would be focused on unity, progress and 562 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,399 Speaker 3: common sense. You're listening to Kettle and Casey. It is 563 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 3: ninety three WIBC. 564 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 1: So I read this article over. 565 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 2: The weekend and it's fascinating to me, Casey, about how 566 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 2: the science community, for lack of a better term, has 567 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 2: now come completely full circle and many of the world's 568 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 2: leading scientists are now saying what most of us have 569 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 2: known our entire lives, which is, yeah, there's definitely a God, 570 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 2: and that's the only logical conclusion. 571 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 3: So it's the articles called does God exist? Modern science 572 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 3: shows he must? Bestseller argues. So this is based on 573 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 3: a book by some scientists who got together who tried 574 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 3: to answer the question. 575 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 2: And one of these scientists, Fastening. Fasting read one of 576 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 2: these scientists early in life was an atheist who was 577 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 2: then convinced purely from a scientific perspective, right. And one 578 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 2: of the things that these science this article lays out 579 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 2: is that if you by the way, I think it 580 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 2: was what. The Times had had an article on this. 581 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 2: The Daily Mail had an article about this about these 582 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 2: scientists in this book they've got out he is every 583 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 2: theory they come back to, you come back to. Yeah, 584 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 2: but that couldn't have happened from nothing. Like every time 585 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 2: they pushed science to a new theory, and many of 586 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 2: them have been debunked, like the stretching and shrinking theory 587 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 2: and all. You know, all of these scientific theories and 588 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 2: then get sort of etched in stone and then later 589 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 2: get to disproved. The one thing science can't get around 590 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 2: is something, even the smallest of things, can't come from nothing. 591 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 2: Something had to start the thing. 592 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 3: They said, the question of God's existence is now forcibly 593 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 3: back on the table through science, not faith or theology. 594 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 3: It's almost like they keep trying to disprove it and 595 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 3: then they can't. They run into a wall. 596 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: Well, look at it's a. 597 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 2: Pretty I've always thought it to be a pretty empty 598 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 2: existence to think, go through your life thinking all of 599 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 2: this just accidentally happen, right, like, just how could all 600 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 2: of this so perfectly? And you know what it was 601 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 2: really reinforced to me. You know I was a believer, 602 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 2: but when my daughter was the process of my daughter 603 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 2: being born, like from conception through birth, and the one 604 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 2: thing I was sitting there in the hospital think about 605 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 2: is how does the baby know to come out? 606 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 3: Like? 607 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: How do they know? Right? 608 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 2: And in a weird way, I think God taps the 609 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 2: baby the shoulder says, hey it you know. 610 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: It's time, right? 611 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 3: Yeah? 612 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 2: And so you think about all of these things that 613 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 2: just in order for them to all work perfectly and 614 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 2: come together perfectly and to have not just human life, 615 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 2: but all of these things around us, you think it 616 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 2: came from some. 617 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: Just just boom or bang or what. I don't know. 618 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 1: That's a that's a heck of a stretch. 619 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 2: And I have long thought that the people who are 620 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 2: so desperate to prove it's almost like we talked about 621 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 2: to begin in the show. These people so desperately want 622 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 2: you to believe Indianapolis is safe that they'll take anything 623 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 2: to stretch and mental pretzel themselves to try to prove 624 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 2: that point, including well, the governor made a stupid tweet, 625 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 2: see everything's really great here. It's sort of the same 626 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 2: thing here that these mental pretzels in this article does 627 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 2: a great job of laying. 628 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 1: It out that that. 629 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 2: Like every time we try to mental science tries to 630 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,479 Speaker 2: mental pretzel itself to make some theory on how this 631 00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 2: could have happened. Then sometimes it takes years, but years 632 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 2: later gets disproved. The most what's the Okham's razor thing? 633 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 2: The most logical answer is usually the one that's right, 634 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 2: and the most logical answer is that there is something 635 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 2: greater than ourselves out there. 636 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. So this book covers some major scientific theories and 637 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 3: fields like the Big Bang, relativity, quantum mechanics, and also DNA. 638 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 3: And you know, they argue that this is not a 639 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 3: religious book, but it's a scientific critique of materialism. 640 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 1: And you see more and more. 641 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 2: I mean, we've laid these articles that I try to 642 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 2: whenever whenever they come out, because they just think they're 643 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 2: fascinating about these you know, science based individuals who their 644 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 2: whole thing is they don't want it to be They 645 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 2: want there to be some logical I can hold it 646 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 2: in my. 647 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 3: Hand, some scientific proof, right. 648 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: And they can't find it. 649 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 2: And then they some of these people are bold enough 650 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 2: to finally just say, hey, I throw in the towel. 651 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 1: We can't do this. 652 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 2: And we've been at this for so long that the 653 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 2: most logical from a purely scientific standpoint, the most logical 654 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 2: answer is that there is a higher being, There is 655 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 2: a higher power, and we are all blessed to have 656 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 2: this in front of us and to be able to 657 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 2: be on this earth and be a part of this 658 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:14,479 Speaker 2: magnificent creation. 659 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 3: So another question was asked over the weekend. Is Indiana's 660 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 3: business climate losing traction? Oh, we'll take a deep dive 661 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 3: into that coming up. It is ninety three WIBC. 662 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: What soords, here's me, how do
