1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,640
Speaker 1: So we've got a big update in the Jimmy Kimmel saga.

2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it was announced that Sinclair was going to

3
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 2: preempt the airing of Jimmy Kimmel tonight because he's going

4
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 2: to be back on ABC. And now some breaking news,

5
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 2: Next Star is saying, yeah, they're going to join Sinclair

6
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:18,440
Speaker 2: and they're going to preempt the programming as well.

7
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:20,080
Speaker 3: So Next Star had.

8
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 1: What thirty one stations Sinclair? I'm sorry, Sinclair, thirty one?

9
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 1: Next Star has how many.

10
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 2: What was it, twenty eight ABC affiliates. They have two

11
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 2: hundred TV stations total, but twenty eight affiliates or ABCA.

12
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 1: So basically, now there are sixty ish ABC affiliates between

13
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:44,520
Speaker 1: Next Star and Sinclair that will not air Jimmy Kimmel's program.

14
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:46,479
Speaker 3: So the question to you.

15
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 1: Because you're the TV expert here, having spent a long

16
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: time in television, is one Late Night is clearly dying anyway,

17
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: see Colbert out. The big rumor was Kimmel's going to

18
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 1: go to next You know, the numbers are horrible. Why

19
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 1: is any of this worth it? I mean, it's not

20
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 1: like people are tuning in in droves for these people.

21
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 1: It's not like you have some ratings Juggernaut, who's like,

22
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 1: oh man, this person stepped in it, but we got

23
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:11,120
Speaker 1: to have them.

24
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:11,960
Speaker 3: We'll try to make good.

25
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:16,320
Speaker 1: Like why are they pursuing this when clearly one you're

26
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: going to lose some of these people all together because

27
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: they're not airing it. But two, the thing you're you're

28
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 1: dying on the hill for isn't producing for you.

29
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 2: Now you're saying, why are they pursuing it? Do you

30
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,679
Speaker 2: mean ABC? Why are they pursued? Like?

31
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 3: Why is it?

32
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 2: Right? That's a great question.

33
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:35,960
Speaker 1: Because Jimmy Kimmel again, I just don't I don't think

34
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: he's he is or it's like, hey, larger than like personality,

35
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: the brand, it's the brand.

36
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 3: It's helped by brand. I mean, late night television is dying.

37
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 1: Like it's just people don't need to see something anymore

38
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: because there's very few things.

39
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 3: Other than real world events where.

40
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: If you miss it, you you know, you're just you're

41
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: totally out of touch with society. Right, sporting events, okay,

42
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 1: you know, real world things. The you know, funeral over

43
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: the weekend, you know what, everybody all of that stuff.

44
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:11,639
Speaker 1: You can go back and watch it anytime you want,

45
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: and late night television is just not that. It's not

46
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 1: that in any shape, form or fashion. And I don't get,

47
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 1: especially with all these affiliates pulling out, how you're going

48
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: to market that and make that work with sixty people, not.

49
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 3: You know, how you're gonna make that work long term?

50
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 2: Well apparently, you know, Jimmy Kimmel had a private meeting

51
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 2: with Bob Iger from Disney, and it would be interesting

52
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 2: to see what they came up with. You know, there

53
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 2: were a lot of stipulations, like Sinclair wanted him to

54
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,239
Speaker 2: apologize and wanted him to donate some money to Turning

55
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 2: Point USA, And clearly that's not going to happen. He's

56
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 2: gonna mention it tonight in his monologue, but he's not

57
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 2: going to apologize. So you got to wonder what does

58
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 2: what did Bob Iger see the benefit of the show

59
00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 2: for bringing him back, Well, the.

60
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 1: Whole television business, right, I mean, you just like, here's

61
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: a great like I don't I And again, this is

62
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: much more your world than mine. I don't understand the

63
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: television business anymore anyway, not that I was ever some

64
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: sort of you know, expert in it, but I having

65
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,359
Speaker 1: career in radio, I had a cursory knowledge that two

66
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: sort of went along the same path for a while.

67
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: But like, for example, ESPN does this massive investment in

68
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: World Wrestling Entertainment TKO and now all there. They used

69
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: to be called pay per views, now they're called ples.

70
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: I think premium live events which used to be this

71
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: monthly thing are now housed through ESPN and through their application,

72
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: et cetera. Well, they have this first event in Indianapolis

73
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 1: over the weekend at the at gain Bridgefield House, and

74
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: it's so underwhelming that even ESPN, which is their launch

75
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: of this thing, right tune in this is this new

76
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: thing we're doing.

77
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 3: They're like, yeah, it was kind of underwhelming. We're gonna

78
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 3: give that greatest.

79
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 1: That's them, the most biased people in the room that

80
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: are marketing that they give it a CE. So what

81
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 1: is the business model where you're investing in something and

82
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 1: your debut you launch is so underwhelming you give it

83
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 1: a C? What is the business model? But so because

84
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: of the streaming side of it with television now, which

85
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 1: is kind of connected, but it's also totally separate, I

86
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 1: don't understand the television business model and long term how

87
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: it works for most anybody anyway.

88
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 2: The putts the person's using television. I mean, it's the

89
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 2: same thing we have here, right, you can enjoy us

90
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 2: on our YouTube feed that goes to our radio ratings,

91
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 2: the broadcast. Right, So I don't know, like you're supposed

92
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 2: to be the TV expert casey, Well, they'd have to.

93
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 2: They got to fill it with something, right, So they'd

94
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 2: be better off just choosing some local programming. That's local news,

95
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 2: and that's why you have these television stations, have a

96
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 2: four pm news, a five pm news, a six pm news,

97
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 2: and then they come back at ten o'clock. So just

98
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 2: rebroadcast that you'd probably get better ratings.

99
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: But so it has to come back to they like

100
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: his politics. ABC is still because the only logical reason

101
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 1: when you factor in the pedal level, the pain of

102
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: the ass level, which is high, the drama you're getting,

103
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: you're losing almost sixty affiliates.

104
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 3: The ratings aren't.

105
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: It's not like it's some like I said, juggernaut anyway,

106
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: the only logical conclusion to this is they really like

107
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 1: what he does, which is mostly vile leftist politics anymore.

108
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,599
Speaker 1: He's not funny he used to be, which is pains me.

109
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 1: I mean, the Man Show is phenomenal. The crank anchor

110
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: stuff was off the charts good. And yet now Jimmy

111
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: Kimmel is just a rotten, miserable person who doesn't move

112
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: the needle in terms of the ratings enough to justify

113
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 1: any of this.

114
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: So in a statement, Disney said that the suspension was

115
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 2: meant to avoid in a tense situation.

116
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 1: So they weren't even Maddie did it. They just wanted

117
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 1: it to go away.

118
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 2: They wanted to calm down for a minute.

119
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 1: It's almost like, very similar in a sense to what

120
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 1: Google's trying to do, or appears to be trying to

121
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: do with the data center. You're in Indianapolis.

122
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 2: Everybody just calmed down. We'll come back and hopefully you'll

123
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 2: be bored with this topic and you'll have moved on,

124
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 2: and then Google will end up being successful in what

125
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 2: they want.

126
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 1: Anyone, Well, let's talk about that for a second, because

127
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: I think it sometimes. His brain is moving so fast.

128
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: It's just brilliant how all the things come together. Sure,

129
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:30,599
Speaker 1: or if you missed early in the program, we started

130
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 1: our show talking about the big win for the people

131
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 1: of Franklin Township last night, in which Google pulled their

132
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: vote their application from the city County Council meeting to

133
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 1: put this billion dollar, hundreds of acres data center complex

134
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: in Franklin Township and people who are celebrating, and what

135
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 1: kind of came to light was they pulled the application,

136
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 1: not because they're necessarily done, but if it gets voted

137
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: on and they lose, they're done for a year.

138
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 3: If they pull it pulled.

139
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: It last night, which they did, they essentially have two

140
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 1: weeks to still sway two more counselors which they need

141
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: to go or if they then back out on their

142
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: own without a vote, they only have to wait three months,

143
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: so they can work for three months. So they're not

144
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: giving in because they're like, hey, we've heard the people

145
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: and we're out of here. They're like, well, it'll be

146
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: strategic to you know. It's like here's a great example.

147
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: My point in all this is there's always some there's

148
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 1: always some motive with things, right, there's always some And

149
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 1: by the way to.

150
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 2: The everybody's got an agenda all the time. Of course, yeah, there.

151
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 2: Google has more time and money and they can wait

152
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 2: it out.

153
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: So can I issue a warning to my Google friends.

154
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 1: By the way, the my friends in Franklin Township dealing

155
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: with the Google people because I have a little experience

156
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: with this. So remember a couple of years ago when

157
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 1: they built the school, built the road in my neighbor's

158
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 1: backyards essentially, and it runs right along these fields, which

159
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: is egregious.

160
00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 3: And this was what.

161
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: To to Yeah, two and a half years ago. Now,

162
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 1: this brownser school system. It didn't affect me at all,

163
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: but people have known for years we're having these this

164
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 1: road the school wanted to build, which was going to

165
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: be a heavy, heavily trafficked road backing right up to

166
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: these people's backyards. And so I went in their defense

167
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: and tried to help those people because I care about

168
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 1: my neighbors, and because they were asking for a zoning change.

169
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: They were going to tear these houses down, build around

170
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,679
Speaker 1: about and spin these these cars off onto our street.

171
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 1: They had to go through the town Planning Commission, which

172
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,959
Speaker 1: meant a public hearing, which meant I got to get

173
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 1: up and speak, and we crushed the school system because

174
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: there's all these things they were not abiding by.

175
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 3: They need to be a biding buy in order to

176
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 3: get a zoning change.

177
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: And so what they did, and we pleaded with them, said, look,

178
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: just meet with us, meet with the residents of the street.

179
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 3: We'll all come to agreement.

180
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,319
Speaker 1: I'm sure there's some way we can all work together

181
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: and figure out concessions that can be made. Instead of

182
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: doing that, what those rotten little bastards did is they

183
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: figured out, Hey, the only reason rob gets to speak

184
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 1: is because we're asking for a zoning change. If we

185
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: just give in on the roundabout and don't tear those

186
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: houses down, we'll still get our road because we know

187
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: we can bulldoze.

188
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 2: Without public comments.

189
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,839
Speaker 1: Without public comment. So they spent the whole month, and

190
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: I think the number I came up with there was

191
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: like eight attorneys that came to the next meeting, and

192
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,679
Speaker 1: their whole thing was, Okay, we'll give in on that

193
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 1: roundabout and not ask for the zoning change, but then

194
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: he can't object.

195
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 3: And refute all the crap we.

196
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,079
Speaker 1: Throw at these Planning Commission people, and what do you know,

197
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: they got their road.

198
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 3: It passed.

199
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 1: There was objection from the people who are paying attention,

200
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 1: but they still got to do the damage. My point

201
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 1: with the people in Franklin Township is Google's not giving up.

202
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: They didn't give in because all we've heard you and

203
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 1: they want I guarantee you they're plotting right now how

204
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: to figure out a way to get this thing through.

205
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 1: So you people need to be hyper vigilant at all

206
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: times because government or these mega corps who are using government,

207
00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: they never quit, they never stop.

208
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 2: Well, right now, they're probably trying to determine what incentives

209
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 2: they need to offer some I don't know, maybe some

210
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:12,679
Speaker 2: counselors who have less conviction who may flip towards their direction.

211
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 3: I think.

212
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: I think the other thing that can't be underscore what

213
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,199
Speaker 1: they're also going to do is they're going to try

214
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: to sweeten the concession pot. And they're going to go

215
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 1: back to the school and they'll go back to the

216
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: city and go well, and this was always the laughable

217
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 1: thing to me. You're talking about a company that's going

218
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: to build a billion dollar complex. They're going to spend

219
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: one billion dollars to build this thing, and we were

220
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: acting like a million dollars with some big thing that

221
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 1: they were giving away to various causes or entities or whatever.

222
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 1: They can do fifty million, and what's it called case

223
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: if you give it away for free or on the cheap,

224
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: what does that make you? You know, if you if you

225
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 1: if you give it up for cheap or easy. What

226
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: there's a starts with a W rhymes with uh, rhymes

227
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 1: with bore.

228
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 2: I'm not saying, oh, I am not saying that's basically,

229
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 2: don't you give me in trouble.

230
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 3: I'm a Republican a good standard. They told me before.

231
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,320
Speaker 1: You can say that I've asked a specific saying, well,

232
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 1: they've told me. You could say that I've had I

233
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 1: know enough to ask the words if I'm allowed to

234
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 1: say it. Anyway, My point is they were taking this city,

235
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: and apparently the school system was because they gave.

236
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 3: They gave it.

237
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 1: We'll refer to it as a cheap date a very

238
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,079
Speaker 1: good and the answers you should hold you Look, the

239
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: city should never give in until the following things are

240
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 1: made clear exactly to the public what Google is getting

241
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: incentives wise, and then how long it takes for break

242
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 1: even much less than paying any sort of property tax,

243
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 1: you know, benefit to the area. And then what the

244
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: actual water and electrical use is for that complex, and

245
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: how the water provider and the electric provider are going

246
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: to ensure that there is never an rate increase to

247
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: the residents because of the data center there. Until all

248
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,679
Speaker 1: that's settled, we shouldn't even be willing to have any

249
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 1: further conversation.

250
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 2: Two things about that. One, there was an NDA, a

251
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 2: non disclosure agreement that was signed, so they're not going

252
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 2: to come out with that information. And do they even

253
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 2: know about the water and electricity?

254
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 3: Well they should they even know if they can't even

255
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 3: lie about it.

256
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: Well, all right, So there was an interesting survey about Trump.

257
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 2: Yes, this was a presidential survey.

258
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 3: Let's take a break. I just want to make sure

259
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 3: I've got this right.

260
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: There's a survey about Trump, and there's something inside the survey.

261
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's more interesting than the actual numbers, and we've

262
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 2: got to talk about that. Coming up. It's ninety three WIBC.

263
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:41,439
Speaker 3: Okay, So tell me all about.

264
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: This pole involving Trump, and then the thing about the

265
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 1: pole that's more interesting than the pole itself.

266
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 2: Sure, First we have to discuss the methodology. This survey

267
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 2: was done between September seventeenth through the twentieth. The sample

268
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 2: size was eleven hundred US adults, so they've got a

269
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 2: margin of error plus minus three percentage points. The breakdown

270
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 2: thirty percent Republicans, twenty nine percent Democrats, thirty two percent Independence,

271
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 2: and then nine percent non voters. And if I look

272
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 2: to see who did the survey, it was American Research Group, Inc.

273
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 2: And they do a national monthly survey. So do you

274
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 2: want to talk about the findings or the weird thing

275
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 2: about the survey?

276
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,199
Speaker 3: Both? Let's do both. Give me the findings first.

277
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 2: Okay, here are the findings. Presidential job approval. Thirty seven

278
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 2: percent of Americans approve of the way Donald Trump is

279
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 2: handling his job as president. Fifty eight percent disapprove, five

280
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:41,559
Speaker 2: percent are undecided. All right, one more time, thirty seven

281
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:45,680
Speaker 2: percent of Americans approve, fifty eight percent disapproved.

282
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 1: That's Trump's actual just job approval, job approval right, how

283
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,840
Speaker 1: he's handling the job of president.

284
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 2: And the thirty seven percent is the lowest that it's

285
00:13:55,800 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 2: been since well, the lowest ever pretty much. He was

286
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 2: at a high mark in March where he was at

287
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 2: forty five percent. Now he's down to thirty seven percent.

288
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: Okay, So I was going to say, we've kind of

289
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: seen in most polls Trump coming in somewhere between forty

290
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: and forty five percent, so we kind of said, well,

291
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: if you take that as the barometer, you just put

292
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: it in the middle. He's probably about forty two now.

293
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 1: It's been a few weeks since we've talked about one

294
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 1: of these polls. I don't think Trump has certainly done

295
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 1: anything to elevate himself. This seems a little low, although

296
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: it's not like completely an outlier to where you're like,

297
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: this is so outside the means mainstream.

298
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 2: Well, I think that's why it's important to look at

299
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 2: the party breakdown the methodology, because obviously, if you've got oh,

300
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 2: seventy percent are Democrats, well clearly it's gonna trend low.

301
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 2: But this was split pretty even, thirty twenty nine, thirty

302
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 2: two of the party breakdown, what was it again? It

303
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 2: was the party breakdown was thirty percent Republicans, twenty nine Democrats,

304
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 2: and thirty two independent.

305
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: All right, so at least on paper, that's that's pretty good.

306
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 1: So again, like I said, Trump is probably hovering around

307
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 1: forty percent at this point, give or take. But what's

308
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: fascinating to me about Trump's approval rating is what's he

309
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 1: going to do to raise it? Because he already had

310
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 1: his big shot, which is the Big Bullcrap Bill, which,

311
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 1: while it's certainly in the legalized vote buying that took

312
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: place in their helped certain sections of the populace most people,

313
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: because the Republicans were throwing it together so fastened on

314
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 1: the fly, didn't explain it all to people one what's

315
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: actually in the bill to how it helps, and what

316
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 1: people kind of know is, hey, a bunch of benefits

317
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: did get slashed, at least on paper. And obviously then

318
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: the media spends hey, it's tax breaks for the wealthy.

319
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 3: And when your.

320
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 1: Big thing is unpopular with the public, I don't know

321
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: how you elevate yourself when you spent so much capital

322
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: and did so.

323
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 3: Much heavy lifting to get that thing across the finish line.

324
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 2: Well, let's talk about the economic outlook, and they're saying

325
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 2: the next twelve months, only fourteen percent expect that the

326
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 2: national economy will get better, eighteen percent expected to stay

327
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 2: the same, and sixty one percent expect it to be worse.

328
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 2: So there's some negativity there with the economy.

329
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 3: Well, in the mood is as big a factor.

330
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 1: It's just like your life, right, Your perception of something

331
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 1: is every bit is important, if not more than the

332
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 1: reality which you're experiencing and the perception for the public.

333
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: And don't underestimate the weight that the tariffs have played

334
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: in all of this, because people notice now things are

335
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 1: getting more expensive, and Trump gave it away that he

336
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 1: can't put it on Biden anywhere because now let's just

337
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 1: say tariffs, right, it was Biden, Biden, Biden, Biden Biden. Well,

338
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 1: now you're in charge, buddy, and you did this mega thing.

339
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 1: And companies are coming out saying, hey, remember we did

340
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,120
Speaker 1: the thing on Walmart about things that were going to

341
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 1: be more expensive and food prices and all of these

342
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: things that people, industries are directly or companies are directly

343
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 1: blaming on the tariffs. So now Trump can't deflect on

344
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 1: Biden anymore. And that's the biggest thing for people is

345
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: not being able to afford living.

346
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 2: Right, there's not a scapegoat and talking about affording you know, living.

347
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:23,160
Speaker 2: Only seventeen percent say that the economy is excellent, very good,

348
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 2: or good. Seventy nine percent rated is bad, very bad,

349
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 2: or terrible. But the interesting thing about this entire survey,

350
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 2: that's the number portion of it. But I wanted to

351
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 2: take note of this. The survey said the survey has

352
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 2: lost subscribers due to concerns over publishing unfavorable results. Okay,

353
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 2: say that again, the survey has lost subscribers due to

354
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,919
Speaker 2: concerns over publishing unfavorable results.

355
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: Okay, when you say subscribers, do you mean people who

356
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 1: are subscribing to the survey like they're getting the survey

357
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 1: or people who are participating in the survey.

358
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 2: Our National Monthly Survey on Presidential Performance and the Economy

359
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,640
Speaker 2: has lost subscribers over concerns that any unfavorable results may

360
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 2: upset the current administration. So that's people doing the survey

361
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 2: taking it, taking the survey, they're afraid if they come

362
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,679
Speaker 2: in and say, now he's not doing a good job,

363
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 2: that somewhere they're on a list and that information is

364
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 2: going to get back to the Trump ad illustration.

365
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 1: Fascinating because that was sort of the thing for years.

366
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 3: It's switched now.

367
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 1: That was the thing for years with Trump, where they

368
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:41,959
Speaker 1: were like, how does he always overperform the surveys and

369
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 1: the answer seemed to be there's a lot of people,

370
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 1: at least early on with Trump, were petrified to say

371
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 1: what they thought because they thought it would get out

372
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: and they didn't want to be embarrassed or shamed by

373
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: saying they were voting for Trump. And now what you're

374
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 1: saying is it's flipped where people are just simply not

375
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 1: participating because they don't want to be on the record

376
00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 1: as opposing Trump.

377
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,159
Speaker 2: Results may upset the current administration.

378
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 3: That's who that's big scary, right.

379
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,399
Speaker 1: Well, you know we've come, we've we've touched on this

380
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 1: several times a day as in the past week or so.

381
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 1: The absolutism in people, and anytime you put someone in

382
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: a box where they've got to be an absolute an

383
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 1: absolute absolutist, or there's somehow of failure or not good enough.

384
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,680
Speaker 1: Take for example, what I went through Sunday. I've spent

385
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: a week and a half telling fifty thousand people a

386
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,400
Speaker 1: day what a great guy Charlie Kirk was, the impact

387
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 1: he had, all the good things he did, blah blah blah.

388
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 1: Right Like, every day we were doing something on Charlie Kirk.

389
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: And yet on Sunday when I'm just trying to enjoy

390
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: myself with my daughter and my wife, and I'm watching

391
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 1: the Colts game, and you know, I'm I'm you know,

392
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: watching the Bears game, and I'm you know, doing some

393
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,000
Speaker 1: stuff online, having some you know, fun tweeting about things

394
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 1: that are interesting to me. I've got some some woman

395
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: from Hamilton County mom barking at me that you need

396
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 1: to put the phone down and watch the Charlie Kirk funeral.

397
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 2: You're not mourning enough.

398
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, lady, I'll do whatever I damn well please.

399
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 1: And I think I've done more than my fair share

400
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 1: to tell everybody about Charlie Kirk.

401
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 3: And you know what that made me want to do?

402
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:19,199
Speaker 1: Not watch any of it, and it sort of it

403
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 1: starts to change your opinion, like, Okay, if these are

404
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: the hardcore people, that's a horrible representation. Same thing we

405
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:30,399
Speaker 1: talk about with the vaccine people, where I'm not anti vax,

406
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,680
Speaker 1: but when you're barking at me all the time about

407
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 1: if I don't give my kid every vaccine or because

408
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 1: I chose not to get the COVID shot, it makes

409
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,119
Speaker 1: me want to be more or think I should be

410
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 1: more anti vax because people recoil when you demand the

411
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 1: absolutism and there's no wiggle room whatsoever.

412
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,919
Speaker 2: They go on to say, we need your support to

413
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 2: continue providing unbiased insights. Please join us in continuing this

414
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 2: monthly survey. Now you could take that as you know what,

415
00:20:57,560 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 2: They're just trying to garner more people to take the.

416
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 3: Well, it could be, but I don't think that's that off.

417
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,120
Speaker 1: On that case, I think there's a lot of people

418
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 1: who are worried about crossing this administration now, and I

419
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 1: think they've seen some things that have happened, and I

420
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 1: think in some cases maybe.

421
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 3: They have good, good reason to.

422
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,479
Speaker 1: I mean, when you got the FCC guy coming out

423
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 1: and saying the things he's saying, and it's like, oh, no,

424
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: thank you, it is.

425
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:28,119
Speaker 2: Kennelly Casey, it's ninety three WYBC. Just see what happened

426
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 2: to Donald Trump speaking at the UN. No, as he

427
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 2: arrived at the un the escalator stopped working the moment

428
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,679
Speaker 2: he stepped on it, and then when he got up

429
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 2: to speak, the teleprompter stopped working the moment he got

430
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 2: up to the podium.

431
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 1: I can see him now, it's okay, I'll take the

432
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 1: stairs tip top shape, all the walking, all the walking.

433
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 2: That I do, take the stacks he even use or teleprompter,

434
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 2: you know, he goes off script.

435
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 1: Oh well, this is the thing about Trump is prompter

436
00:21:57,960 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 1: Trump actually can.

437
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 3: Give a pre good speech.

438
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:06,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, and prompter Trump when he stays disciplined. I know

439
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 1: it's a huge stretch, right, but prompter Trump, you know what,

440
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 1: he just stays with the thing. Now, My one thing

441
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 1: I don't like about Trump with the prompter. He will

442
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,639
Speaker 1: do it on the big speeches, but like he'll be

443
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:20,360
Speaker 1: going and he'll be reading and like.

444
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 3: I'm just making stuff up, like the you know, the

445
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 3: Ukraine is our friend. Ukraine, very fabulous weather this time

446
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 3: of year. I've been there before. It's fabulous.

447
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: But again there are a friend we got, Like he'll

448
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,679
Speaker 1: get and then he'll like detour and I'm sure that

449
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 1: prompter guy's like stop, starts, where where are you?

450
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 2: Yeah?

451
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 3: Exactly.

452
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 2: They should really just bullet point out I'm not even.

453
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 3: Reading anymore, lost my place. I did that for five minutes.

454
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 3: Kind of boring.

455
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 2: Let's geta tad was tad daed? What did he call it?

456
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 2: He called that the weave right when he weaves in

457
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 2: and out of topics.

458
00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and it.

459
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:02,959
Speaker 1: Look with most politicians it's you know, it's they are

460
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,919
Speaker 1: on the prompter to a t. They're they're highly trained

461
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:07,200
Speaker 1: to read.

462
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,400
Speaker 2: And you're like, do you generally want to misspeak at

463
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:09,959
Speaker 2: the UN?

464
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 1: Well, you know you guys, the UN it's let me

465
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: take a stab at it, like what it would sound

466
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:16,399
Speaker 1: like the UN.

467
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:19,359
Speaker 3: It's it's it's stood up for humanity for generations. Although

468
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:24,880
Speaker 3: you guys blew it in a rag, right, I told you,

469
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,160
Speaker 3: not even close. That's the Dame had those nuclear weapons.

470
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 3: Not even close. I can't believe you felled for COmON Palell.

471
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:36,119
Speaker 2: Imagine the person being the controller of the teleprompter. You

472
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:40,680
Speaker 2: would be like, give me out here. Oh my gosh. Okay,

473
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 2: let's talk about this story. Many Americans feel economically stuck,

474
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:51,679
Speaker 2: unable to buy homes, switch jobs, or relocate. Some contributing factors,

475
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 2: they say, are the high borrowing costs, fewer job openings,

476
00:23:55,880 --> 00:24:00,239
Speaker 2: political and economic uncertainty, and also high housing prices. Is

477
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 2: of course, you had the federal reserve rate cut, but

478
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,520
Speaker 2: that was just a little baby one, so it really

479
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 2: had limited impact.

480
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 3: Right.

481
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 1: Uh okay, So again, what did the what did the thing,

482
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 1: What did the survey actually say?

483
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 3: What was the kind of the detail the gist of it?

484
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 2: Many Americans can't buy homes, get jobs, or move in

485
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 2: this stuck economy.

486
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 3: You have no hope, sorry, Kevin, no hope whatsoever.

487
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 1: You know one of the you know, we kind of

488
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 1: got into this before, but one of the great I

489
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: think it does go to why maybe Trump is doing

490
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 1: so poorly?

491
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:37,920
Speaker 3: And some of the.

492
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,560
Speaker 1: Some of the polling that we've talked about is not

493
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,639
Speaker 1: that like there's dire conditions on the ground. There's just

494
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:49,440
Speaker 1: not any optimism, like there's no here's where this thing

495
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 1: is ending. Right, So let's go back to when the

496
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 1: financial collapse happened in two thousand and eight, two thousand

497
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 1: and nine, people looking at this going oh my gosh,

498
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 1: what's happening. You sort of kind of believed, Hey, they'll

499
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: bail this thing out to the point and it'll be

500
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: a new frontier and things won't be the same anyone,

501
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,880
Speaker 1: but we'll get out of this eventually. Sure, you kind

502
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,400
Speaker 1: of believed in the aftermath of nine to eleven, Hey,

503
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: this is catastrophic to the economy and things are going

504
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 1: to take a hit, but we're America. We'll rebuild, we'll

505
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,120
Speaker 1: do what needs to be done, We'll get through this.

506
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 1: You just don't have any optimism of how things are

507
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,880
Speaker 1: going to get better when it comes to the affordability

508
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 1: of living, and that's the thing that is out of control.

509
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 1: There's no condition on the ground right now where you

510
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:38,120
Speaker 1: say chaos that's causing the that should be causing the inflation.

511
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,879
Speaker 1: It's all actions of the government and the government is

512
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,159
Speaker 1: showing no signs of doing anything that's going to pull

513
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 1: the reins in on the things that are causing this stuff.

514
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 3: So people are just like, how does this get better?

515
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,360
Speaker 2: Where do we go from here? Hiring has slowed a lot.

516
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 2: Just eighty eight thousand jobs have been added in the

517
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:58,919
Speaker 2: past three months. Job switching, which you would typically do

518
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 2: if you wanted to get higher wages, you just got

519
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 2: to change your job and ask for more money, that

520
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 2: has declined, and now job stayers are receiving better raises

521
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 2: than job switchers, which is a reversal from a normal trend.

522
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 2: Sixty three percent of Americans say it's a bad time

523
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:24,439
Speaker 2: to find a job. In that coming from the Washington Post.

524
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 3: That's an interesting.

525
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 1: Job stayers are doing better than jobs switchers switchers, And

526
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 1: I wonder if that's because, and you know this because

527
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 1: you were in management for years, it's so expensive to

528
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 1: bring somebody new in that if you've got somebody who's

529
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 1: doing the job in a fairly decent level and you

530
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 1: can't replace them with technology, you almost just say, would

531
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 1: it be easier to give this person an extra couple bucks,

532
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 1: just as having to bring somebody else in.

533
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 2: That makes total sense.

534
00:26:58,119 --> 00:26:59,440
Speaker 3: Yeah. See that's what you need to do, Kevin.

535
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 1: You need to mark your backside into Matt Hibblin's office

536
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,640
Speaker 1: when we get done here today and say you're up against.

537
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,879
Speaker 3: The wall, buddy, You're up against the wall. No job,

538
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,399
Speaker 3: no no chance. Anybody can do this job like me.

539
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 3: Two extra dollars.

540
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 2: So this article is also saying that spending and life

541
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:19,119
Speaker 2: decisions are on hold, and Rob maybe you can speak

542
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 2: to this. They say that they're delaying purchases like appliances.

543
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 2: That's the thing. Though you need a refrigerator, you're gonna

544
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 2: get a refrigerator.

545
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 3: Well, I somehow I wonder this.

546
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 1: Too, like the secondary market, because I had a long time.

547
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 3: You know, nothing matters didn't matter of me. Eve anthing

548
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 3: matches in my house.

549
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,119
Speaker 1: But my wife gave me in very emphatic orders that

550
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,400
Speaker 1: whatever fridge I because the people in the house before

551
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 1: I has.

552
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:47,360
Speaker 3: Had all nice stuff. And I was like, this isn't

553
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 3: gonna last in this house.

554
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: And so I think my wife accepted that when this

555
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,439
Speaker 1: refrigerator went out, the new fridge was not going to

556
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 1: be as nice, but it didn't need to be. But

557
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 1: she was very adam me.

558
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 3: She was like it's got a match.

559
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 1: Do not come back with a black refrigerator or a

560
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,679
Speaker 1: white It has to be stainless steel, right, Like, that

561
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 1: was the one she's like, and she knew me. She's like,

562
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 1: do not come back with the with the friends.

563
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,679
Speaker 2: They didn't come back with some like nineteen seventies avocado

564
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 2: green refrigerator.

565
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,199
Speaker 3: Well, I got orders and I adhered to that.

566
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:23,479
Speaker 1: But the point is, I wonder for people who are

567
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:29,639
Speaker 1: living a little closer to the vest, how if the

568
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,680
Speaker 1: secondary market now becomes the place where a lot of

569
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 1: that stuff happens.

570
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, because people are delaying the big purchases or they

571
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 2: just can't afford it. The White House still claiming that

572
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 2: the stagnation is temporary, blaming Biden era conditions. But as

573
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 2: you mentioned earlier, those days are gone. Yeah, you can't

574
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 2: just hold on to that forever. At some point they

575
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 2: have to, you know. But Donald Trump keeps saying tariffs

576
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 2: are working. We're hotter than ever, right, We're rich, rich rich.

577
00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 2: That's what he said during the Charlie Kirk memorial that

578
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 2: this country is rich, rich, rich. We're making billions of

579
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 2: dollars off the tariffs. The question is when does that

580
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 2: trickle down? To the American people.

581
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, I don't know. All right, let's take

582
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:14,719
Speaker 3: a break. What are we doing next? What's going on?

583
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 2: Well, we have to talk about the new astronauts. Oh okay,

584
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 2: new astronauts, new astronauts.

585
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 3: Exciting.

586
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 2: It's Kendily Casey. It's ninety three WYBC.

587
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 3: You don't know what's going on? So what I'm living

588
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 3: my life on autopilot? Is that what you're telling me?

589
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 2: That's exactly what I'm telling you. It's actually not me

590
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 2: telling you. It is a new study. Nearly ninety percent

591
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 2: of your daily life runs on auto pilot. I can

592
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 2: see that. How much ninety percent? It's actually eighty eight percent,

593
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 2: So nearly ninety percent, no kidding. About two thirds of

594
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 2: your behaviors are triggered by habit rather than a choice

595
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,719
Speaker 2: you just do it. Exercise, this is the one that's

596
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 2: sup me the most. Exercise is more often triggered just

597
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 2: by habit, But when you're in the middle of doing it,

598
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 2: you're making a conscious effort to get to a certain

599
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 2: point of the exercise, Like Okay, I'm gonna go for

600
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 2: a walk. That's just based out of habit. But to

601
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 2: say I'm going to walk a mile today, I want

602
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 2: to get up to a mile and a half tomorrow's

603
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 2: two miles. Yeah, that's the effort that you put in.

604
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 1: What would you say are the things that you do

605
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: every day that are on autopilot? What's like the like

606
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 1: the standard routine for you. I mean, obviously I would

607
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 1: have seen.

608
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 2: My morning coffee, coffee in the morning, and you know,

609
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 2: just like how I get ready for bed at night. Yeah,

610
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 2: you know, brushing your teeth, washing your face, that sort

611
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 2: of thing. It's just like the same way. It's just

612
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 2: on repeat. I would think like a lot, a lot,

613
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 2: like even how I blow dry my hair and apply

614
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 2: my makeup, and just the way I drive into work

615
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 2: unless there's a detour on Washington.

616
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 3: You know, it's.

617
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 1: Fascinating's like my life when I was self employed for

618
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:10,479
Speaker 1: all those years, Like I had no boundaries, and I

619
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 1: recognize when you spend very early on Like some people

620
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 1: start businesses, but they're started like in the confines of

621
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 1: like some sort of structure because they go get loans

622
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 1: or whatever. They got to make it work, They got

623
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 1: to set up some sort of you know, corporate environment,

624
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: even small businesses, et cetera. Mine was one hundred percent

625
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 1: I started in my bedroom. I started with no money

626
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 1: from anybody, so there was always just like owe anybody

627
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 1: anything from the get go, and it was always just like, Okay,

628
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: I need this amount to live and I'm doing better

629
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 1: than that, and I'm good at saving money. So I

630
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: kind of just don't like being accountable to anybody. And

631
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 1: I realized the complete chaos of my existence from about

632
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 1: the ages of twenty two really until I ended up here. Now.

633
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: I had the little derailment at the state government for

634
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: two years. It's part why I was so frustrated with

635
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 1: the state was everything was so so structured, even if

636
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 1: it didn't make sense, Like structure's fine, but if structure

637
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 1: for just structure seging, it doesn't make any sense. I

638
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: used to fight with those guys all the time, like

639
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: this is the most inefficient way to run anything.

640
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:12,479
Speaker 3: Well, this is the way we've always done it.

641
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 1: Yep, but that doesn't make any sense, Like I don't

642
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 1: need you must be here my favorite thing.

643
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 3: It's true story. So I think the hours.

644
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: Were eight to four thirty and they gave you thirty

645
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 1: minutes for lunch. And my job when I was the

646
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 1: Pharmacy Board director because the agency had didn't want me

647
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 1: and was sort of thrust upon him by higher ups.

648
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 3: They were trying to get.

649
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 1: Me at everything, and so like they were monitoring like

650
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 1: the lunch to make sure it was like it was

651
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 1: like thirty two minutes they were gonna it was pretty micro.

652
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 3: Oh, it was a hell of an environment to work in.

653
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 1: Case surprised it didn't go better, Right, But my point

654
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 1: in all this was I used to tell those guys.

655
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 3: I was like, this is the.

656
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 1: Most poorly run operation in the whole world because people

657
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 1: have no flexibility to actually do the jobs.

658
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 3: Like when I was working, I would work full bore

659
00:32:58,760 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 3: for three or.

660
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,239
Speaker 1: Four hours, like all right, I'm coming back to this

661
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,560
Speaker 1: in you know, two or three hours, right, and I

662
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 1: would be obviously very productive running my business, et cetera.

663
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 1: But when you have these structures that don't fit around

664
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 1: the people's talents or the way they operate, the best.

665
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 3: Get you get failure.

666
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 1: So all of this to being said, I've always done

667
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 1: horrible in the structured environment, but now i have a

668
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: superstructured environment because I have a little tyrant to look

669
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 1: after every single day and my schedule evolves around around hers.

670
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, One of the things that they say most

671
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 2: people do just on autopilot, is check their phone. Is

672
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 2: there a certain time of day, you know.

673
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 3: All day?

674
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, as soon as we get off the air. Well,

675
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 2: it's not even waiting until we get off the air.

676
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,720
Speaker 2: Many times while we're on the air, many times in

677
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 2: mid conversation, you'll look down at your phone. Yeah, but

678
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 2: they say they're not ignoring you. People just do that automatically.

679
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 2: There are certain things with your phone, like brushing your

680
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 2: teeth is another one. Driving is another one. But checking

681
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 2: your phone and also on the list something that people

682
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:05,880
