1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:06,080 Speaker 1: That is a uh staggering number for what it's costing 2 00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:07,240 Speaker 1: to go to the grocery store. 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:11,039 Speaker 2: US grocery price has hit a record high monthly cost 4 00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 2: for a family of four, one thousand. 5 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 1: And thirty dollars. How much one thousand, thirty dollars for 6 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:22,360 Speaker 1: a family of four per month to go to the 7 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:27,480 Speaker 1: grocery store. It's one thousand, thirty dollars thirty dollars. 8 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 2: Grocery prices have risen thirty seven percent since twenty seventeen. 9 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,200 Speaker 2: That's according to Feeding America. 10 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,919 Speaker 1: Okay, so it's thirty percent more expensive to get out 11 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 1: of the grocery store than it was in twenty seventeen. Now, 12 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:45,239 Speaker 1: the question is, has your salary gone. 13 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 2: Up increase thirty seven percent since twenty seventeen? 14 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 1: Thirty seven percent is at the number, okay, thirty seven percent, 15 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: So basically, yeah, I mean, look, this is the thing, 16 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: and it's not just one area of the economy, right, Housing, 17 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 1: all of this stuff has skyrocketed, and it's just man, 18 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: it shouldn't be that way, right, Like, we're so blessed 19 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,319 Speaker 1: in this country. We have so many resources, we have 20 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,399 Speaker 1: so many creative people, we have so much industry and 21 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 1: innovation and it's like, man, that's a it is a 22 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: swift kick in the junk. Every time you put items 23 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: on the U scan at the Walmart, it's like, holy smokes, 24 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: here we go. 25 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to determine what can we do without. 26 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 2: So there was an apee pole and it said that 27 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 2: grocery costs are Americans' biggest financial stressor it outranks rent, healthcare, 28 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:34,559 Speaker 2: and student loans. 29 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, and again there's just nowhere to turn out of it. 30 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 1: You know a lot of times previously in the you know, 31 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,320 Speaker 1: in the society to say, okay, well that area is 32 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: being affected, like hey there's a shirt one, there's a 33 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: bird flu, so egg suddenly got really expensive, or hey 34 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: there was a skyrocketing of beef or whatever. And you 35 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: can figure out how to you know, maneuver around that. 36 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: Is it any inconvenience, sure, or is a little more 37 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: expensive of course, But you also see the light at 38 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: the end of the tunnel of Okay, this is going 39 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: to end at such and such a day, and it 40 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: is just not happening. And it really has not happened 41 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: post COVID with the price of food. 42 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 2: So grocery stores they're posting higher revenues and it's not 43 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 2: because they're selling more food. It's because the prices of 44 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 2: the food have surged. And the top most purchased grocery 45 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 2: items they include beef, eggs, and milk, and those items 46 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 2: have seen an average price increase of sixty percent since 47 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 2: twenty nineteen. 48 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: And it's a it's a bipartisan thing, right because this, look, 49 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 1: we were running the narrative, right is like, oh, COVID happened, 50 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: and we didn't have any choice, and we didn't know 51 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: what it was, and we had to do all of this. 52 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 1: We were running trillion dollar annual deficits pre COVID, like 53 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: it was unsustainable. And this was Trump and this was 54 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: Obama before that. And I mean, really, the magical money 55 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 1: printing factory turned on in earnest, certainly to some extent 56 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: post nine to eleven, but really at the end of 57 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: George W. Bush's time in office, when the economy collapsed 58 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: and the too big to fail and the auto industry, 59 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: and I mean, it's just like it's just never stopped. 60 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: It's never stopped since then. And so it's a bipartisan thing. 61 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: And it kicked an overdrive in twenty twenty when Trump 62 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: and the Republican controlled Senate. No Democrats had the House, 63 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 1: but everybody failing spectacularly together turned on the money printing 64 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: factory the tune of whatever that was five trillion dollars 65 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: or more than one year. You can't sustain that. 66 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, in response to this, Donald Trump has lowered 67 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 2: tariffs on beef and coffee and one hundred other items. 68 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 2: Here's the thing, it's cotton. 69 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: To the point. 70 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 2: Now, NBC News now has a grocery price tracker. 71 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: Oh no, on our website. 72 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 2: You remember the COVID tracker. Oh yeah, Now we're pricing groceries. 73 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 2: They say they're going to update it every single month. 74 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: That just I mean, it just is. We were where 75 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: were we at thirty eight trillion? Now? So I mean 76 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: you're gonna be at thirty nine before too long. There 77 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 1: is no sign that any of this is stopping. Okay. 78 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: So in the year two thousand, let's see here. Okay, 79 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: in the year two thousand and eight, we had a 80 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: national debt. We were essentially under George W. Bush regularly 81 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 1: running deficits from oh one, really through oh seven, of 82 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: somewhere between five and seven hundred billion a year like 83 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: so that basically the majority of Bush's presidency, and then 84 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 1: we ran a trillion dollar deficit in eight two thousand 85 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: and eight to seven to eight ran a trillion dollar deficit, 86 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: eight to nine ran an almost two trillion dollar debth deficit, 87 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 1: and pretty much then that became the norm going forward, 88 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: were these trillion dollar annual deficits saved. There was a 89 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,919 Speaker 1: couple of years in there with under Obama where it 90 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: did not actually hit the trillion dollar annual deficit. But 91 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: it's just like this has just been insanity. And then 92 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: if you fast forward to you know, twenty twenty, between 93 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen and twenty twenty, it was more than four 94 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: trillion dollars and then it's been multi trillion dollar annual 95 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: deficits ever since under under Biden, and the Republicans aren't 96 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: stopping now. And so my point in all this is 97 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 1: it's so easy to go, well, Biden didn't know. I mean, 98 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: Biden did do it, of course, but not the only one. 99 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 1: But so did Bush, and so did Trump, and so 100 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 1: did Trump pre COVID. It's all like, I love how 101 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: in some people's mind the inflation calculator just the just 102 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 1: stops when it's Republicans doing it, like it only happens 103 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,840 Speaker 1: when know what all these people do, and they're all 104 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 1: doing it because the legal mode buying business that they're in. 105 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 2: It's not just the impact of food at the grocery store, 106 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 2: it's also fast food. McDonald's price prices have increased from 107 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 2: twenty nineteen to twenty twenty four. Listen to this medium 108 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 2: French fries used to be a dollar seventy nine. Now 109 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 2: it's four dollars nineteen cents. McChicken dollar twenty nine up 110 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 2: to three eighty nine. 111 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 1: Wait, wait, wait, wait I saw this list. 112 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I a McChicken is well, this is an average 113 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 2: across the country. Obviously, prices are going to sway from 114 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 2: east coast to west coast and here in the middle. 115 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, because I was gonna say brown Brig India, and 116 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: the McChicken is not three dollars right, this expensive? 117 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 2: This is an average. You got to know in California 118 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 2: it could be seven bucks. In Indiana, it's going to 119 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 2: be cheaper. 120 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: When I was in college, so this would have been 121 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: in the later two thousand, mid late two thousands, I 122 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: would I would come home and I would stop at 123 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 1: the McDonald's and you could get a McChicken, a medium 124 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: fry and a large drink for three bucks. That was 125 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 1: a deal three bucks out the door. Maybe I'll try 126 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: to price that today. What is it now? Well, I 127 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 1: don't know what a mc chicken actually is because they 128 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: got those deals now where you buy one, you get 129 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 1: for one overpriced thing, you get it for a dollar. 130 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: You know, it's different than it used to be. 131 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 2: But I think if you really want to compare, you 132 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 2: just got to know. I just I don't want to 133 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 2: buy one. Get one, don't give me the end, go in. 134 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: And do some science experiment the McDonald's. I'm trying to 135 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: get the food and get out of there. 136 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 2: So Donald Trump was at the McDonald's Impact Summit in Washington, DC, 137 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 2: and he was saying what he likes best on the 138 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 2: McDonald's menu. 139 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 3: Doing honest, beautiful, hard work and happy family sitting down 140 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 3: to a really great meal. Because no matter who you are, 141 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 3: everyone loves something at McDonald's. Say's always something to have. 142 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 3: I like the fish, I like it. What you could 143 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 3: do a little bit more taught? Please? Seriously, I hate 144 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 3: when I said you have any do you understand that? Yes? 145 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: He who was for Charter saw did it sound like 146 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: he was like, yeah, it was disgusting. Yeah, in advance, 147 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: mimicking skinning the fish. Oh is that what he was doing? 148 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 2: Though? 149 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: Okay, well that's even more bizarre. But he has gone 150 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 1: full old man mode at this point. Sir, you are 151 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: the president of the United States. They probably have some 152 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: tartar sauce on standby, right, Like your your jet you 153 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: fly on is ten times the size of normal people's homes. Like, 154 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: can someone not get the man some targar sauce? He 155 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: is the president of the United States, is bitching about 156 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 1: the tartar sauce on the fish standwich at the McDonald's. 157 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:34,199 Speaker 1: That's where we're at. 158 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 2: Well, he was at the McDonald's Impact Summit. He was 159 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 2: also talking to franchise owners, saying that they're gonna have to. 160 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 3: Fight, and wages for hourly workers arising at the fastest 161 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 3: pace in sixty years. And sometimes you might say, was 162 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 3: that good or bed it's great for you? The minimum 163 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 3: wage thing you'll have to be talking about. 164 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: You're gonna have to fight. 165 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: He said that he was the first former McDonald's fry 166 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 2: cook to ever become president of the United States. 167 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 1: That is true, Yeah, I mean that is absolutely front 168 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: and center. Here's the thing, though, again, these poll numbers 169 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: for him are not going to improve until the affordability 170 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: of stuff starts to improve. And he made that a 171 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: central part of his the biggest part of his campaign. 172 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,719 Speaker 1: And I'm sorry. The border may be much better it is, 173 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: we may be stronger abroad than we were before. We are. 174 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: I'm not disputing those things, but I'm telling you how 175 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: people view the condition of the country as their own 176 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,839 Speaker 1: personal It's why gas prices when they skyrocket, people get 177 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: you all up in arms about the country and everything 178 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,719 Speaker 1: else gets ignored. And he just doesn't seem to have 179 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 1: any plan and just simply telling people things are great. 180 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: Biden tried that how to go. 181 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, the gaslighting doesn't go over well because people know 182 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 2: the truth. 183 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: That's right. So, speaking of food, there is a new 184 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: trend in food. 185 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,119 Speaker 2: For a while, everybody was trying to increase their protein 186 00:09:55,280 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 2: consumption in products and different products like cereal or add 187 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 2: protein to everything. Now the new word you need to 188 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 2: know fibermaxing. Oh, fiber's in fiber is the next food trend. 189 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: Supposed to be having more fiber. 190 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, there are two types of fiber. Soluble fiber which 191 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 2: dissolves in water and you can find that in oats 192 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 2: and peas and beans and carrots and apples. And then 193 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 2: there's the insoluble fiber which moves through your digestive system, 194 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 2: and that's found in flour, popcorn, bran, nuts, green beans, 195 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 2: and potatoes. Are you getting enough fiber? 196 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,319 Speaker 1: Ruck? It was a thing of the moment, right m M. 197 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: There's always the like this is the new kraze or 198 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: the new thing everybody's got to do or whatever. Here's 199 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: what I know, And it doesn't mean. It doesn't mean 200 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: I'm perfectly healthy. I just know when I got the 201 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: results of my test, everything was in the little range 202 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,559 Speaker 1: it was supposed to be on for my most recent physical. 203 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: That's all I know. I doesn't mean it was all 204 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: great in the range. It just means it was in 205 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: the range. And they said have a good day. 206 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 2: I know that every doctor I ever see always bring 207 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 2: up fiber. Really yeah, So I don't know if that's 208 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 2: just not a marketing thing, but as you. 209 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: Can, the fiber industry right like, they've been saying that 210 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: for a while, Yeah, get your fiber. All right, We're 211 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: gonna take a break. I need some life advice when 212 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: come back. You need the audience to get in on 213 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: this because we've got to start doing some stuff around here. 214 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: This is really a me problem. It's not really you problem. True. 215 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: I'm sure it'll become a me problem. Well your association. 216 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 217 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: So I got to get, you know, maybe an audience 218 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 1: perspective on what I'm supposed to do here. All right, 219 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: that's coming up. 220 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 2: It's Kennel and Casey on ninety three WIBC. 221 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 1: Okay, So I had somebody had a friend who was 222 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 1: at the local McDonald's urn Central Indiana, herd or last segment, 223 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: he calculated the food into the So I said, when 224 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,679 Speaker 1: I was in college, by the way's kittle Casey sho 225 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 1: and Rob, that's Casey. We just done a segment about 226 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: the increase in food prices. Somehow we got a McDonald's. Well, 227 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 1: because it's impacted fast food as wellow. Yeah, and Trump 228 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: was talking about slurping the tartar sauce the fish, which 229 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: is gross. But anyway, and I said, I remember that 230 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: a when I was coming from college. We've been like 231 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: two thousand and seven, two thousand and eight. It was 232 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: a McChicken, a medium fry, and a large coke was 233 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: three bucks three twenty seven with applicable taxes. Thanks to 234 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 1: mister Ursay's Lucas Oil stadium tax, which I believe at 235 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: that time went into was in full effect. So three 236 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: twenty seven tacks. He pulled that up. He was at 237 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 1: a local McDonald's and put that in. I guess he 238 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 1: was at the Kioskar just happened to be going in 239 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: and he said it was seven twenty seven. Wow, was 240 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: the same. So basically two and a half ish times 241 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: the price for the same thing. Now you can do those, 242 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: there's various discounts or whatever. They can get the buy one, 243 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: get one whatever. But anyway, so like that's crushing in 244 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: you know, seventeen eighteen years the price is two and 245 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: a half times more, two and a half times more. Yeah, 246 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: that's a lot. 247 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 2: So you were you were saying you doubted those price 248 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 2: in a McDonald's that I was listening off, but I 249 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 2: don't know, maybe that well, but yeah, it's like some 250 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 2: of the items are over a two hundred percent increase 251 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 2: in price. Yeah. 252 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's see here, ba, Like you were saying, okay, 253 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: they've got instantly and the chicken is two fifty nine 254 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: you added at three eight eight. Yeah, So I mean, yeah, 255 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 1: naturally makes sense. The medium fry does have a price 256 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: of medium fry four nineteen, yeah, three nineteen, or in Cintel, Indiana, 257 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 1: the large coke is a buck forty nine. Yeah. Yeah. 258 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 2: So that's that's where they really get you, because you 259 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 2: know it doesn't cost them that much to. 260 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: Well, no, but if you go back nine times and 261 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,719 Speaker 1: get your money's worth, that's the coakes you got to 262 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: eat in the store though. To do that, Oh, I 263 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:41,079 Speaker 1: always go in. I'm getting the full experience. Yeah you are. 264 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,319 Speaker 1: I'm going to take somebody's space in that booth. I'm 265 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 1: gonna sit there, I'm gonna look out the window. I'm 266 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 1: going to enjoy the scenery. I'm going to get all 267 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: of it. I'm going in. I'm using their ketchup. The 268 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: big thing is I'm using their ketchup and sauce because 269 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 1: if I go home napkins, yeah, in their bathroom and 270 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 1: they're done. Absolutely no, no, no, I'm paying. If I'm paying 271 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: the premium, I'm getting all the stuff. Next time. 272 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,959 Speaker 2: Moment you'd asked him to add some fiber into your meal. 273 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: I think I told the story when I was in 274 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: high school and I worked at the RBS.

Every four 277 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: napkins because they wanted you to count when you worked 278 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: in the drive through, how many you gave me cognizant 279 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: of the napkins?

We could do something 425 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 2: for charity. And he looked at me like, yeah, no, 426 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 2: I'm not working anymore.

Yeah, it does. You could probably take 436 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 1: maybe one thing. I'm not taking anything there stolen stolen. 437 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 2: Dick Cheney's funeral started about a half an hour ago. 438 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,640 Speaker 2: We're going to talk about that coming up. It's ninety 439 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 2: three WYBC. 440 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 1: Doctor Thevens. 441 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 2: Random. 442 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: Some look coming out on him. Kind of interesting, maybe 443 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 1: I imagine that. Anyway, it's Kennel a Casey Show. Rob 444 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 1: Casey's here. There's another swatting on another state senator. State senator. 445 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, there was the second one that was reported yesterday, 446 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 2: State Senator Dan Denolk of Highland. 447 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. 448 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 2: Uh. He said it was scary and shocking to me 449 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 2: that someone would go so far to try and cause 450 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 2: harm or fear to me or my family. But just 451 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 2: twenty minutes ago another one, Senator Spencer Deary. 452 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: And all of these people are senators who have come 453 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: out well. Now, in the case of Great Good, Good Good, 454 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: he had not made a position, although it certainly seemed 455 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 1: that he was against the redistricting. Now I believe Drnalk 456 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: and Spencer Deary have both come out again. So it 457 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 1: doesn't mean that it there's a clearly all these things 458 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 1: will be and should be investigated, But it doesn't mean 459 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: that it has anything to do with Trump's calling some 460 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: of these people out or talking about redistricting or whatever. 461 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 1: But it's just that's unacceptable, And it's whether you agree 462 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:45,680 Speaker 1: with somebody's opinion politically or government wise or not. You know, 463 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: you can say whatever you want basically about them, but 464 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,120 Speaker 1: you can't be doing stuff like this, right. You can't 465 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: villainize these people because they're taking a position. Well, you 466 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 1: can villainize them, you just can't threaten them. I'm not 467 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 1: going to stand here and be a hypocrite and say 468 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 1: you can't villainize these people do it all the time. 469 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 1: In a lot of cases. They are villains. They are 470 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 1: harming society by their choices. But you've got to handle 471 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: it in a certain way. You can't be threatening people 472 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: or sending the cops to their house thinking there's an 473 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: emergency going on. Oh no, you can dump all over 474 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,160 Speaker 1: these people all day, every day, Casey, and you totally should, 475 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: but there's a you have freedom of speech. You can't 476 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 1: be threatening people. You can't be sending the cops people's house. 477 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: You can't be making think that there's some heinous act 478 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 1: going on inside the home. Can't we have them? Can't 479 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 1: we can't Both of these things be true at the 480 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 1: same time. You cannot like what they're doing, but you 481 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 1: can't retaliate surectly. Absolutely. Look, if I figured out how 482 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 1: to do it, y'all should be able to figure out 483 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: how to do that too. And this behavior is completely unacceptable, 484 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 1: and you're somebody's gonna get seriously hurt over this eventually, 485 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: because what the cops do when this happens is they 486 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 1: think there's some emergency going on in the home, and 487 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 1: unless they're kind of and now maybe these local police 488 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: departments are getting more aware of this because it's happened 489 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: so often now that they, you know, can potentially enter 490 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: the home thinking someone's in danger and something really bad 491 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 1: could happen. 492 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,360 Speaker 2: Senator Dearry put on a statement saying that the West 493 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 2: Lafayette Police were able to respond to a call in 494 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 2: a professional, safe and appropriate manner. 495 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's gross, that's disgusting. 496 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 2: So you've got the funeral of former Vice President Dick 497 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 2: Cheney happening, lots of former presidents and Republicans attending except 498 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 2: for Donald Trump. 499 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 1: He was going there. 500 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 2: Biden's there w slated to speak, but not Donald Trump. 501 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 2: You had Dan quayle Al Gore, Kamala Harris, Mike Pence 502 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,679 Speaker 2: all there. Do you. 503 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: Don't you think it's probably a good thing Trump wasn't there. 504 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: I mean, why would he go? Wouldn't he be a 505 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: complete hypocrite by showing up? I mean, he clearly didn't 506 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 1: like the guy. He didn't have any nice things to 507 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: say about him, And the funeral is probably for people 508 00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 1: who wanted to be around you in life, right, like 509 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 1: his daughters change. Yeah, I mean, like, yeah, absolutely. You know. 510 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: My theory on this has always been that, and I 511 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 1: want the same standard applied to me. Whatever you thought 512 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: of somebody in life is exactly what you should say 513 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 1: about him in death. And obviously at a funeral that's 514 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 1: probably not the right place to make those opinions hurt. 515 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 1: So if you can't didn't have a positive opinion of somebody, 516 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 1: you best just probably bugger off and go do something else. 517 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: So that's probably best for everyone. Trump's not the only 518 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: one who didn't go. 519 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,959 Speaker 2: You also had Barack Obama and Bill Clinton who were 520 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 2: going to be absent. Clinton cited a scheduling conflict for 521 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 2: the reason he. 522 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: Wasn't going that's something going on. 523 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 2: I thought this was interesting. Breitbart put out this article 524 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 2: and they said that former President George W. Bush and 525 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 2: his family and his family are reportedly planning a comeback 526 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 2: to retake the Republican Party from Donald Trump after helves. 527 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: Of course, sure they are. 528 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 2: It's a plot to end the so called Bush exile, 529 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 2: and they went to counter Trump's MAGA influence within the GOP. 530 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: So we're going to go back to a war on 531 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 1: every corner. I mean, you'll still have the crony capitalism, 532 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 1: the atticate just go away. But here's the thing is 533 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 1: is it really going to be George W. Bush or 534 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: just in name only? How old is George W. Bush? Okay, 535 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: he's gotta be Let's see. I can probably get this 536 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 1: fairly close. I think he turned sixty in two thousand 537 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 1: and six, so I will if he would have been 538 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 1: forty six, I will say he is seventy nine years old. 539 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: You got it, Yeah, July sixth. The only reason is it, 540 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: you know, my brain, you know how my brain is right? 541 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 1: And that's very weird because I just remember, it's weird 542 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 1: that this brain, that things are always moving and everything 543 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 1: is just you know how it is. But I distinctly 544 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 1: remember in two thousand and six him giving a speech saying, 545 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 1: I am sixty years old and I am either said 546 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: I'm heading towards senior citizen status or I am a 547 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 1: senior citizen or something, and I remember thinking, man, he's old. 548 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: Now that I'm forty, it's like, well, please not That'll 549 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 1: wasn't really that'll, he's seventy nine. Now you're listening to 550 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,119 Speaker 1: Kettle and Casey. That's amazing that I got that right. 551 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 2: It is you're it's impressive. It's impressive that file cabinet. 552 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: Of her brain that you have. It's ninety three WYBC 553 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 1: will the food from the Balls and a thousand stars 554 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: like the Coole high Night and the turn Back Slick, Casey. 555 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: Why can't people drive? 556 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 2: It's it's multitask great, Well, really there should just be 557 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 2: a task. 558 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: I get dr Bar and I go uh huh, and 559 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 1: I get that some things are unavoidable. And now I'm 560 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: probably putting myself in a very bad spot by questioning 561 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 1: other people's driving. But you were talking about this, this 562 00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: stet who has this story? Who WRTV does okay, and 563 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: it's about how many crashes there have been, not just 564 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: in the city but statewide over the past three days. 565 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, between Monday and Wednesday, Indiana State Police reported nearly 566 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 2: one hundred crashes statewide, while i AMPD reported two hundred 567 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 2: and fifty four crashes just in the city since Monday. 568 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 1: Well, as we started our show, I can explain some 569 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,199 Speaker 1: of those in the city because you can't get anywhere. Oh, 570 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 1: we're gonna do this again. We can't. You can't go anywhere. 571 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: Like this city sucks, downtown sucks, it's awful to drive, 572 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 1: and it's been going on for years, carasy years and 573 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: years and years. 574 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 2: And they had Washington Street closed for a while and 575 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 2: I thought, oh, okay, this is going to be great 576 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 2: when it reopens. It's going to be smooth, it's going 577 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 2: to be glorious. It's in worse condition now than before 578 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 2: it was closed. 579 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,719 Speaker 1: Yeah. One of the things that like as an elected official, 580 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 1: that I learned very early on, because you're always wanting 581 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: to do stuff. Oh, this will make this better, and 582 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 1: this will make that better. And you know, I got 583 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: a finite amount of time. IM only gonna be here 584 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: four years, So let's go let's get it done. Let's go, 585 00:28:55,840 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 1: let's go, let's go. Then you realize that the one 586 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: of the keys of a decent society is the ability 587 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: to move people's ability to get someone right, and so 588 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: you you have to when you're planning any sort of construction. 589 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 1: I have to finish this thing. We're moving on. Yeah, 590 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: it's if this thing is also going to be impacted 591 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: by the other thing. And we just keep starting stuff 592 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: with this city, right, no thing ever seems to get finished. Yeah. 593 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 2: No, the Washington Street bridge is still closed, and the 594 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 2: construction goes down Washington all the way to downtown. 595 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: It's it's absolutely crazy. 596 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 2: And they put the metal plates down and I thought, oh, okay, 597 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 2: they're gonna raise those back up and smooth it over. 598 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: No, didn't do that. There's still metal plates scattered around everywhere. Okay, 599 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 1: So go back to the accidents, and that may have 600 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: something to do with it, but like that, just I know, 601 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 1: we had some rain right one of these days. It was. 602 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 1: It was pretty gnarly out there, so maybe that accounts 603 00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 1: for some of it. But that still just seems like 604 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 1: a high volume of accident, doesn't It always. 605 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 2: Seem like people forget how to drive when the weather changes, 606 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 2: hey by, like you got to relearn every year. 607 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 1: Speaking a motorists, I have a motorist question of who 608 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: would have been a fault here? Oh okay, yeah, because 609 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: as I mentioned, it takes nine hours to get downtown, 610 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: so you no matter when you leave. It's just like 611 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: you can't I know, and you know this as anybody 612 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 1: right now, because you made the decision. At least I 613 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 1: can flee this place at noon each day I can 614 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 1: get out of here. You you are stuck in this, 615 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: in this and isn't that the irony of it. One 616 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 1: of the reasons I chose to live downtown was so 617 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 1: that I would be close to work forever. I believe 618 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 1: the prayer. We're looking for a sucker anyway. I'm so 619 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 1: I get to I get to work, I get in 620 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: the parking garage and I'm running behind right because it 621 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: took forever to get here. It doesn't matter when you leave. 622 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 1: I'm I'm running. I'm in the parking garage because you 623 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 1: can't do the elevators in this place because the elevator 624 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 1: was broken yesterday. Thank you, you've just proved my point again. 625 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 1: They don't work, you know how I get when? But 626 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: at least you didn't get stuck in it. No, that's true. 627 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 1: They just told you it wasn't you know what? 628 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 2: In today, I got in the second elevator and I 629 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 2: press four to come up on the fourth floor, and 630 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 2: it took me down to the first floor. 631 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 1: It's like Broadway Roadway. This is my point. So you 632 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: can't use the elevators in the in this in this place, 633 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: especially like in the garage, because I've had such horrible 634 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 1: luck with us. So I walk to there's a site 635 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 1: interrance where if you have a badge like we do, 636 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: you can get in. So I'm walking down the ramp. 637 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: I'm jogging down the ramp in the in the parking garage, 638 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: which there's no signs to say don't walk or anything 639 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 1: like that. I'm going the correct way where if a 640 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: car were coming towards you, they wouldn't hit you. Right Like, 641 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 1: I'm going the correct way. Someone have to come behind me. 642 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: And as I'm jogging, a large suv I believe it 643 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: was a BMW. Oh, I see it turned on its 644 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 1: lights and it starts coming out towards me, and I'm thinking, 645 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: my life is flashing before me. This is how I'm 646 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: going down. Yeah, I really wanted it to be an 647 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 1: elected official take me out, like, you know, some sort 648 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 1: of duel of some sort. There's still time. Well that's 649 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: the most likely scenario. That's still the betting favor. But 650 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 1: I think, oh no, I'm gonna go down. But my 651 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 1: question was, if that card hit me, I wouldn't have 652 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 1: been at fault, would I? 653 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 2: For what? 654 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 1: Walking? 655 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 2: Well? 656 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I don't. I don't think it's ever 657 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: a pedestrian's fault because there's no sense this is. Don't 658 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 1: walk down this ramp. I always feel like Jack Ruby 659 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: when I'm walking down the ramp. 660 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 2: By the way, it's weird because I have to walk 661 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 2: up the ramp. I get to work out every day 662 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 2: when the elevator's broken. 663 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 1: So my question is, if I and it's a BMW, 664 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 1: so that person probably has some spare change, you think 665 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 1: I should just let. 666 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 2: It hit me. 667 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, it would have been better off, right. Would that 668 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 1: person have been at fault? Probably yes, So it would 669 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: have been good for me, yes, But it would have 670 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 1: been bad for me. Well, I mean I could still 671 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 1: do the show with a broken leg, you think so, 672 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 1: I mean, if they had kept going, it might have 673 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: been bad. You could do it from home. They could 674 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: have hit me. I could have jumped backwards. 675 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 2: Oh I'm broken, right, you could have flopped, made it 676 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 2: much worse, made it look worse anyway. 677 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: No, I think that that would have been their fault 678 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: had they hit, and I would have been in the money. Maybe, 679 00:32:58,000 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: So they're lucky. 680 00:32:58,680 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 2: I was on it. 681 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: Uh huh. You're paying attention, as you always do. It's 682 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: very good. 683 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 2: I've been noticing all of these articles have been coming 684 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 2: out with our friend reporters, and they're parroting things that 685 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 2: you have been saying for years. 686 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 1: Well that's because I'm the man, right, you're so ahead 687 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 1: of the curve. Well, look, here's the thing. I lived 688 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: this casey and I look, I know I've told this 689 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 1: story before, but those two years that I spent in 690 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:30,719 Speaker 1: state government, both in the State Auditor's office and then 691 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 1: as the Pharmacy Board director, and my mistake was I 692 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: came back. I had left, I was gone free, I 693 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 1: had my year of service. I said out, foll you people, 694 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonzo, and then I made the mistake of letting 695 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 1: them talk me into coming back. I should have just 696 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 1: stayed in my house and sipped my beverages and minded 697 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: my own business, but no, I believed. And when they 698 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: said we're reforming the PLA, we need fighters down there. 699 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 1: You've done a great job in local government, let's go, 700 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: you bought it. And then you know what happened. Those 701 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 1: two guys that hired that talked me into coming down there, 702 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 1: they they found out what it was. But because they 703 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,800 Speaker 1: were super connected, they were like, smooch our butt cheeks, 704 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 1: We're going somewhere else. And I was like, what the 705 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: hell am I supposed to do? Well, we wish you 706 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 1: the best of a life. But my point in all 707 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: that is, I saw this stuff for two years and 708 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 1: I was outraged at what I sawt how inefficient, ineffective, 709 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,839 Speaker 1: how arrogant these people are who I'm not talking about 710 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 1: the rank and file workers, they're wonderful people, but the 711 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 1: shot callers, right, And I said, there will come a day. 712 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 1: There will come a day where I will have a 713 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 1: platform to get even for what I've seen it for 714 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 1: the people I have seen used and abused and discarded. 715 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 1: And I am here now, but I speak the misery 716 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 1: I speak of is from experience. YEA, I've told this 717 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: story before, and I know we got to go, but 718 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 1: this is the best example of how rotten the state 719 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 1: government is. And one day I'm I'm walking around the 720 00:34:56,440 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 1: Indiana Government Center and in the pla and one of 721 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 1: my coworkers said, do you ever notice how all the 722 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 1: plants are dead down here? And you start looking around 723 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 1: like it's some sort of movie, a horror movie where 724 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:13,879 Speaker 1: it dawns on you and you go there, right, Yeah, 725 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 1: no matter how much you water them, nothing can live there. 726 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: Ten to them. All the plants in the in the 727 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,919 Speaker 1: basement at the Indiana Government Center, they're all they're all dead. 728 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 1: Because that's the people's are dead inside there. Yeah, because 729 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: the government is so awful. Well, look at you. 730 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 2: You were the acorn that became the yolk, and unlike 731 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 2: you complaining about the state government. I was in my 732 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 2: car this morning bobbing down Washington. It was interesting. 733 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 1: I think I blew my shocks, and I was telling 734 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 1: Joe Hogg set to stick it and his mismanagement of 735 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 1: the city. Well, if it makes fee any better, If 736 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 1: I had to bet, I would bet the plants are 737 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 1: dead in the city County building too. Probably we should 738 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 1: wander over and check some day. 739 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,839 Speaker 2: All right, I'm done, candidate Rob Thank you, Kevin, thank 740 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 2: you for listening.
