1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:01,720
Speaker 1: Hammer and Nigel.

2
00:00:01,760 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 2: Do you believe these characters are weirdos?

3
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:10,560
Speaker 3: My name is Nichel Jason Hammer right over there. This

4
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 3: is the first headline that I saw this morning, Hammer,

5
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 3: and it was scary. I gotta be honest with you,

6
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 3: this is scary if you get kids in high school.

7
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 3: FBI officials saying they thwarted an Isis inspired attack at

8
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 3: an Indie area high school. But scary about this is

9
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 3: they weren't specific as to which high school it happened,

10
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 3: but they made a statement that reads quote because the

11
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 3: student had immediate access to firearms. The FBI in Indianapolis

12
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 3: worked closely with the high school and our local law

13
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 3: enforcement partners to remove all firearms from the house, and

14
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:49,000
Speaker 3: the student was expelled from the school. Department of Justice

15
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 3: did not file charges as the individual is a juvenile,

16
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 3: which I mean, if you're saying you thwarted an ISIS

17
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 3: inspired attack, but you didn't charge the guy or gal

18
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 3: even though it was a juvenile, that's a little disconcerting.

19
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm wondering if that means they did not charge

20
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: him as an adult. But you absolutely have to charge

21
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:17,400
Speaker 1: something here. I know expectations are low in Marion County

22
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 1: with the prosecutor and judges that we have, but you

23
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 1: have to charge right. We don't know where this was at. Yeah,

24
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 1: you've got it. I mean, is not a problem for you,

25
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: because it's a problem for me. Not knowing where it's at.

26
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 4: It is.

27
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, it could be anywhere. Now, maybe if this was

28
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: the school district that you're familiar with, if your kid

29
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 1: or grandkid goes to this school, maybe you know. I

30
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 1: don't know if an email was sent or a phone

31
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: call was made, but if not, this is problematic. Now.

32
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: If the FBI says we can't tell you right now

33
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: because we believe there may be others were working on

34
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 1: a bigger investigation, I will respect that. But I feel

35
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,919
Speaker 1: like people have a right to know where this took place.

36
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 1: And I'm thinking there.

37
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 3: Are people that know because it happened to their school

38
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 3: Somewhere somebody's noticed. Yeah so and so is not around anymore. Yeah,

39
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 3: it's because he's isish.

40
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: Right. There had to be a lot of mysterious black

41
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 1: FBI vehicles at somebody's high school. I just don't happen

42
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: to know which one it is, and the FBI did

43
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,799
Speaker 1: not announce I mean, big picture, I'm happy they thwarted this.

44
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, that's the most important thing. But

45
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 1: I feel like we kind of have a right to

46
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,959
Speaker 1: know where it took place at. Like would you want

47
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: to send your kid to school the next day after

48
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: a possible ISIS threat was made and somebody was expelled

49
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 1: but not yet arrested.

50
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 3: Absolutely not. I got kids in middle school, man, I

51
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:48,959
Speaker 3: get you know, they're about to turn the corner and

52
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 3: they'll be in high school. And if you're a parent

53
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 3: with kids in high school, it's a terrifying feeling to

54
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 3: you know that that these schools sometimes are soft targets,

55
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 3: even though they could be hard to get to. We've

56
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 3: seen time and time again where mistakes are made, shooters

57
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 3: get in, and all you know, terrifying chaos breaks.

58
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: Loose, even if you have a resource officer. We saw

59
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: that horrifying story before where you know, I think it

60
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:18,359
Speaker 1: was in Texas. Sure the resource officer was there in time,

61
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 1: scaredy cat and did not do his job. I'm in

62
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: favor of bringing in some old army guys, Like I'm

63
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 1: telling you, there are some retired dudes that have served

64
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:32,079
Speaker 1: this country that would be more than happy to spend

65
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: you know, the rest of their time, part time job

66
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: helping protect kids. But I trust them with the firearm

67
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: and to do the right thing.

68
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 3: Wouldn't that put you at ease knowing and retired Navy

69
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 3: seals patrolling your kids high school?

70
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: It would be right. There is a.

71
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 3: Police presence at the high you know, at the middle

72
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 3: school where I drop my kids off at. For sure,

73
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 3: I see a police presence at all the you know,

74
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 3: the elementary schools and the high schools and the middle

75
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 3: schools there.

76
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 1: Yes, and it's the same with ours. And the resource

77
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: officers do a great job. But if these guys that

78
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: need you know, a little extra paycheck, that have served

79
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:16,600
Speaker 1: our country, that pass all the cognitive tests, right, I mean,

80
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 1: you don't want somebody suffering from PTSD to get in there, right,

81
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: But if there's somebody that you know has worked with

82
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: firearms and is willing to protect kids and earn a

83
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 1: paycheck while doing it, let's take a look at that, man.

84
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: Let's definitely take a look at that. Keeping it here

85
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: in the State of Indiana, Indiana General Assembly gathering. This

86
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: is what's known as the short session. It's not a

87
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 1: budget session. So for all of you wanting no tax

88
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 1: on tips and you know, no tax on overtime, bad news.

89
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: Probably not going to happen here now. It could happen

90
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,359
Speaker 1: if somebody wants to take the lead on this, But

91
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 1: we were told by the governor the last time he

92
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 1: join in dust In Studio that it's probably going to

93
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: be one of those deals that happens during a budgeting session,

94
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 1: which is not this one. But topics happening right now

95
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 1: include crime downtown and wait for it, firing squads for executions.

96
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 1: What let go? Oh man, you want to talk about volunteers.

97
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:30,359
Speaker 1: I'll volunteer for that. No, you mean to tell me

98
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: I get to stand there and shoot a cop killer?

99
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: Where do I sign up? I'll do it for free.

100
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 1: I'll show absolutely I'd have no problem at all. Oh,

101
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 1: I feel like I'd be serving my country. I'd be

102
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 1: serving my state.

103
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 3: It's like you're going on, like you know how cops

104
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 3: do right along? Yes, it's somewhat similar, except.

105
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: You get to kill a human being. Well maybe I

106
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 1: don't think you know who's got the live round because

107
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 1: the way that its, yeah, like four out of the

108
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 1: five guns right now they're debating right now, should it

109
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 1: be five shooters, should be three shooters? But hey, man,

110
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 1: I'm in. I am one on this idea. Senator Mike

111
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: Young is behind this. It's State Bill eleven and it's

112
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 1: not moving just two firing squads. It's using the firing

113
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: squad in addition to a lethal injection. Because the lethal

114
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: injection one it's super expensive. Two it's hard to find

115
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 1: the the cocktail as they call, and if there's an

116
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: appeal or a last minute stay of execution, that stuff

117
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: expires quickly. Remember Holcombe bought a bunch of it for

118
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: some reason and it's set on the shelf and expired.

119
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 1: Just wasted money. So this bill from State Senator Mike

120
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: Young would make it so whoever the victim soon to

121
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: be victim would be the deceased. You get to pick,

122
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: do you want the lethal injection or do you want

123
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 1: the firing squad.

124
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 3: Oh listen, if I was on the other end of

125
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 3: that stick, I'd be picking the injection. Just put me

126
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 3: to sleep and that's it.

127
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: Well, I don't think it's as easy as that though,

128
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: Like from what I gather, the lethal injection is like

129
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: a slow suffocation.

130
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 3: But if you're in sleep, you don't know you're getting suffocated, right, Like,

131
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 3: like they put me out if you suffocate before you

132
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 3: go to sleep.

133
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 1: I think you too, if you came over right now

134
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: and strangled me to death before I went to sleep. Yeah,

135
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 1: i'd noticed that. I thought.

136
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 3: I thought the order was they put you out with

137
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 3: some strong sedatives and then they stick the poison in.

138
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: No what I gather like you feel it the last

139
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: couple of lethal injections. Now, I'm going by the reports

140
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: that we heard because no media are allowed to cover

141
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: these things, which is a different topic that I've been

142
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 1: trying to fix. But like Benjamin Ritchie, for example, the

143
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: cop killer in Beech Grove, he was like holding on

144
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: and convulsing like before or he met his maker. But

145
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: if you could just shoot me and kill me quickly,

146
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: then let's do that. Like I would sign up for

147
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 1: the gunshot more so than I would the slow suffocation.

148
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 1: Is the target in the heart or the head. Heart

149
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: gotta be the heart. But if you miss it hit

150
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: him in the head, it's not the end of the world.

151
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: Like remember in the Green Mile, after they had that

152
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 1: painful execution where with the dry sponge, Percy didn't wet

153
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: the sponge. Somebody asked Tom Hanks afterwards, what the hell

154
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: was that that was? The successful execution. The guy's not

155
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: alive anymore. It's just a little more painful, right, doesn't

156
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 1: matter if you hit him in the head or the chest.

157
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 1: That's a successful execution. Now. The other bill that Senator

158
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: Mike Young is putting forth at the Indiana State House

159
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: is State Bill one forty five. Senate Bill one forty five.

160
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 1: It calls for a special area downtown to be basically

161
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: called a miles where where it would be governed by

162
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:09,199
Speaker 1: a special prosecutor and not patrolled by the IMPD. Interesting now,

163
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 1: the concept behind this is, Yeah, Ryan Mears and the

164
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: judges in Marion County stink so bad at prosecuting bad

165
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: guys in our popular tourist areas. What if we took

166
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: our already short staffed IMPD, spread them out throughout the

167
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: rest of Indianapolis, and we brought in a special prosecutor

168
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: and special police officer security to patrol this mile square.

169
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 3: I appreciate Senator Young's efforts, but does this have any

170
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 3: chance of passing through or even moving?

171
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 1: Probably not. Probably not. I can't see this one giving

172
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,319
Speaker 1: the support because it's weak Republicans. In theory, it's a

173
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 1: good idea. You have to protect your popular areas, your

174
00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 1: tourist areas. You can't be having shootouts on Meridians Street.

175
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 1: Outside of the bar district. You can't be having Big Brahake. Yeah,

176
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: outside of Steak and Shake and the Hooters on Georgia Street,

177
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: you can't be having that.

178
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 3: My family lives downtown. My dad lives a block away

179
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 3: from where all those shootings that we just mentioned, Hampton

180
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:17,719
Speaker 3: In I think had one.

181
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 1: That's literally that's where the Dutch soldier was shot and killed. Unfortunately. Yes, Now,

182
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 1: per this plan, the cost of providing the police services

183
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:32,359
Speaker 1: would be deducted from state revenue that is normally distributed

184
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 1: to Indianapolis, so it wouldn't cost anything extra. But some

185
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: programs would probably be defunded. But that's to create the

186
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 1: mile square area real quick before we hit a traffic

187
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 1: break here, Nige, if you need a reason to drink tonight, Okay,

188
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 1: happy fifty first birthday. To Wheel a Fortune the game show.

189
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,359
Speaker 1: Yeah that's on Mount Rushmore, isn't it again? Oh yeah,

190
00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:01,320
Speaker 1: Mount Rushmore of game shows and no particulular order, Wheel

191
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 1: of Fortune, Jeopardy price is right? What's the number four?

192
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 3: Family feud? Family feud? That's a good one, and you

193
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 3: could go. There's plenty of choices.

194
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, but Wheel of Fortune's on there. Fifty one years ago.

195
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 1: Today premiered on television for the first time, which brings

196
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:23,280

00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 1: I'll let you judge for yourself tomorrows right in the butt. No, right,

199
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 1: but Blake, this is the best. Yeah, that's it, I think, Yeah,

200
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 1: this is the best. A few letters, you know, we're

201
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: turned over because it's the lightning round. Hey, my man

202
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 1: jumps in right at the butt, right in the butt,

203
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: and I don't know how we make that transition to priest,

204
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 1: but he's filling in for Matt Bear today and.

Speaker 3: away at Woodland Bowl.

210
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 1: Please tell me. This morning there were three left, just

211
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:32,199
Speaker 1: three left, because our promotions department found four extra tickets

212
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 1: that could be sold, so we sold one of those

213

216
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,320

217
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: your veterans. And it's a combination of debauchery, Shenanigans, Jack Daniels,

218
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 1: and a pizza buffet.

219

Speaker 3: Sweet Neckar. This sweet Woodland Bowl there on Keystone, just

220
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 3: off Keystone is just phenomenal.

221
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,680
Speaker 1: The pizza. The pizza is so good and they treat

222
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 1: us so well there. I can't believe the crap they

223
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 1: let us get away with. We're doing drunken pyramids in

224
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 1: their lane, the human pyramid. Like this is where like

225
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 1: professional bowling events happen, like the US Open happens at

226
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 1: this bowling lane, and we're doing a pyramid out there,

227
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 1: drunken dudes drinking beer doing a pyramid. Now, if you're

228
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 1: like a competitive, really good bowler, you can compete to win. Now.

229
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 1: When you were gone, Nudge, Chris Hammer filled in, yes,

230
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: and he was calling out your neighbors. He's like, you

231
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 1: know what, all those people talking trash like they're going

232
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: to come back and win. That's what you say when

233
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 1: you lost. The year before it was.

234
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 3: It was my neighbor's company that he runs, And yeah,

235
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 3: they I think they won it the first year they did,

236
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,079
Speaker 3: so that's why they were talking trash. And then your

237

Speaker 3: son's team from you of I right beat them. Yes,

238

272
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: He's gonna come down, I think the gun guy if

273
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 1: he doesn't go to the game, because he's talking about

274
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 1: driving down to Atlanta. If he doesn't go to the game,

275
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 1: he's gonna come by. Uh So, man, we are going

276
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 1: to have a great, great time down in coaches Tavern

277
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 1: this upcoming Friday, real quick nights before we hit a break.

278
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 1: Today is January sixth, a historic date for a number

279
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: of reasons.

280
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 3: Five years ago today there is a dude pooping in

281
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 3: the corner of Nancy Pelosi's office.

282
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 1: Is that what you're telling me? Yes, I still maintain

283
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: that Alec Baldwin has killed more people than anybody that

284
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 1: stormed into the Capitol that day. Democrats, though they'll try

285
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 1: to tell you that January sixth is on par with

286
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 1: like nine to eleven at Pearl Harbor Day. Oh, if

287
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 1: you don't believe me, here's Kamala Harris.

288
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 6: Certain dates echo throughout history, including dates that instantly from

289
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 6: mine all who have lived through them, where they were

290
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 6: and what they were doing when our democracy came under assault.

291
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: Or democracy dates that occupy constitutional place.

292
00:16:56,360 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 6: On our calendars, but a place in our collective memory.

293
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 6: December seventh, nineteen forty one.

294
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:05,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right up there with it.

295
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 6: September eleventh, two thousand and one.

296
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: Oh sure, sure. And January sixth, corrected. There you go,

297
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 1: America's wine Mom corrected you, Nige, there you go. Hell.

298
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 1: If you want to get specific, what happened on this

299
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,479
Speaker 1: date in nineteen ninety four, I think was more violent.

300
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: That's when Tanya Harding's goons attacked Nancy Kerrigan and whacked

301
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,879
Speaker 1: her in the leg. Oh that's the This is the

302
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 1: anniversary of the thirty two years ago. To go and listen.

303
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 1: If you're Tanya Herding, you kind of got to feel

304
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 1: pretty good about the movie that they made. Right, what

305
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:51,400
Speaker 1: was it called Ian? It was really good. Yeah, Margot Robbie, Right,

306
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: Margot Robbie played Tanya Harding. Now, with all due respect

307
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:59,199
Speaker 1: to Tanya Harding, she doesn't look like Margot Robbie. She

308
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,959
Speaker 1: doesn't look like Barbie or that's smoking hot chick from

309
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 1: the Wolf of Wall Street that we grew up watching, No, No, No,

310
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: But it was a good movie. She comes off almost

311
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,479
Speaker 1: sympathetic in it. So that happened thirty two years ago today,

312
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: and great moments in Tanya Harding history. When our old

313
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: producer Mondo left, if you remember, at a night with WIBC.

314
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 1: We tried to get him like a cameo message from

315
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,199
Speaker 1: like a famous wrestler, but they were super expensive and

316
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 1: we said he's not worth it. So we got him

317
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 1: a message from Tanya Harding and she left him a

318
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 1: great message. I remember that Tanya Harding was like Mega Mondo,

319
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 1: sad to hear you go. A great moments in Tanya

320
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 1: Harding history. It's the Hammer and Nigel Show. Don't watch

321
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 1: listening to the Hammer and Nigel Show. Hey, bro, you

322
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 1: mind putting on some pants. I find a little weird.

323
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 1: I have to ask why. I can you see.

324
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:04,159
Speaker 3: H's actually striking the house. GOP lawmaker Doug Lamofa of

325
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,679
Speaker 3: California dying suddenly at the age of sixty five. Now

326
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 3: this means I'll tell you what this means to us

327
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 3: here in just a second. Besides, you know, there's a

328
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 3: level of humanity. The guy died suddenly. We don't know

329
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 3: what happened. He at a medical emergency and died in surgery.

330
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 3: But this guy was to chair the Congressional Western Caucus.

331
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 3: Hammer and so the headline is, like, you go to

332
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 3: Dredge Report, there's a big red headline about this is

333
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 3: their clip ark. It doesn't say there's no clip arc,

334
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 3: there's nothing siren going. But it doesn't say congressman dies suddenly.

335
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 3: It says Republican majority shrieks.

336
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:44,160
Speaker 1: Isn't that kind of call? That's really morbid. That's what

337
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 1: we're worried about here. Remember when the Drudge Report used

338
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 1: to be somewhat I don't want to say conservative, but

339
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,959
Speaker 1: right leaning. And I don't know what changed. Maybe it

340
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 1: was COVID.

341
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 3: I feel like I stopped going there during COVID because

342
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 3: they were all scared headlines and clickbait.

343
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,399
Speaker 1: But now like you go there. I can't remember the

344
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: last time I even checked the Drudge Report. But that

345
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 1: is kind of cold. But that's who the lift the

346
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 1: majority shresch in big red letters. That guy died. That's

347
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,679
Speaker 1: who the political left has become. The minute there's an

348
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 1: assassination attempt or an actual assassination, these people celebrate. Like

349
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,679
Speaker 1: I heard at the news at the UH earlier, you know,

350
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 1: bottom of the hour talking about Louise Mangioni. The left

351
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:38,399
Speaker 1: loves this guy because he's shot in cold blood. Somebody

352
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,160
Speaker 1: that works in the healthcare industry, you know, a husband,

353
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: a father, But they don't care about that. They care

354
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: that a healthcare you know exec that's been screwing people

355
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: and their words is dead. And when Charlie Kirk was murdered,

356
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 1: like you saw the notorious pig, that fat hog up

357
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 1: at ball State and that horrible woman on video doing

358
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,400
Speaker 1: the gun shot to her neck thing during the parade,

359
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: that's who these people are. They want to talk about

360
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:10,919
Speaker 1: how bloodthirsty Republicans stormed into the Capitol. It was just

361
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 1: like nine to eleven. But the real reality is they're

362
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: the cold blooded ones. They think this stuff's great. They

363
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 1: think it's fantastic, So too eighteen to really to fourteen.

364
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 1: It's technically two thirteen, but Texas is about to have

365
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 1: a special election and a very Democrat district, assuming they hold,

366
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: that makes it eighteen to fourteen, which takes us back

367
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:40,919
Speaker 1: to the whole changing of the congressional maps discussion. Like

368
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: so many people were like, we're Indiana. We don't want

369
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 1: to do what Washington wants us to do. Okay, that's fine,

370
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,360
Speaker 1: that's noble. Would have picked up a couple of seats

371
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: if we did, could have helped, you could have fired

372
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 1: Andre Carson. But no, you got butt sniffers like Rod

373
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: Bray out there, and all the people that work underneath

374
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: of him, like I've never seen a bigger nerd think

375
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: he's cool than that guy, and people like are so

376
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: enamored with power their total butt sniffers toward him. Did

377
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 1: even media members did have an air of arrogance. You

378
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,199
Speaker 1: and I sat at the same table with him a

379
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 1: few years ago at an event. I know I was

380
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: just really Yeah, we played nice because it was a

381
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 1: charity event. But yeah, that guy. If Smug were a brand,

382
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 1: we were there with the CEO, let's put it that way.

383
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:40,880
Speaker 1: Speaking of smug Eric Swollwell of California, Oh that guy.

384
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: This is a dude who's so smug and full of

385
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: self gratification, even though he got busted banging a Chinese

386
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: spy and farting on television. Normally one of those things

387
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 1: would humble somebody.

388
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 3: Right, Farting on TV would humble me for sure. Forget

389
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,679
Speaker 3: about the honeypot, right, Chinese honeypot, you know?

390
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,360
Speaker 1: And did I mention he was on the Intel Committee

391
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,879
Speaker 1: when it happened. Yeah, Like, how can you be on

392
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:13,879
Speaker 1: the Intelligence Committee and also be doing the hibbitidibity with

393
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 1: the Chinese spy? Like I feel like that should be

394
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,440
Speaker 1: grounds for, you know, getting kicked the hell out of Congress.

395
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,919
Speaker 1: But it's not. And he's not humble. He's as arrogant

396
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 1: as he ever been. He's he's one to run for

397
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 1: governor California, and his platform this is a beauty. Think

398
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 1: of all the lunatics in California. There's Gavin Newsome, there's Pelosi,

399
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 1: there's pencil neck shift. There's Mayor bass in LA. There's

400
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: a lot of lunatics out there, but Swollwall wants to

401
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,399
Speaker 1: be the captain of them all as the governor, and

402
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 1: his platform is, if you're an ICE agent, we're going

403
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 1: to make sure that you are not allowed to wear

404
00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 1: a mask and you probably won't be el for driver's

405
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:05,400
Speaker 1: licenses as well. What listen, you.

406
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,640
Speaker 4: Have immense powers as governor of California, and your responsibility

407
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:10,919
Speaker 4: is to protect the most vulnerable in the state. So

408
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 4: if the president is going to send ICE agents to

409
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 4: chase immigrants through the fields where they work, what I'm

410
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 4: going to do is make sure that they take off

411
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 4: their masks and show their faces, that they show their identification,

412
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:24,680
Speaker 4: and if they commit crimes, that they're going to be

413
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 4: charged with crimes. If it's falsely imprisoning people, if it's kidnapping,

414
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,879
Speaker 4: if assault, battery, they're going to be held accountable. I

415
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 4: also think if the governor has the ability to issue

416
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,959
Speaker 4: driver's licenses to people in California, if you're going to

417
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 4: wear a mask and not identify yourself, you're not going

418
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,120
Speaker 4: to be eligible to drive a vehicle in California. There's

419
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 4: a lot you can do, but most importantly, you have

420
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 4: to go on offense. Otherwise the most vulnerable in our

421
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,680
Speaker 4: community will always be on defense.

422
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 3: Well up the way they these people. That was Eric Swowell,

423
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 3: California running for governor. Yeah, oh oh, hammer has his

424
00:24:56,560 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 3: hand up. Yes, go ahead, Chason Hamer. I have a question.

425
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:04,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, does this mean Antifa has to take their masks

426
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: off too? Does this mean they won't be getting driver's licenses?

427
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:09,879
Speaker 5: Fart?

428
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 1: Well, I know it's real fun to try to crap

429
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 1: all over the ice agents. I get what you're trying

430
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 1: to do, But you know what, don't threaten me with

431
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,159
Speaker 1: a good time. All right, Fine, nobody wears a mask.

432
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 1: Next time there's a mostly peaceful protest, next time there's

433
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,720
Speaker 1: a very violent riot, anybody wearing a mask, Federal pound

434
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,479
Speaker 1: me in the backside, prison and no driver's license. Can

435
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 1: we all agree to that.

436
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 3: Stop with the narrative that these guys are chasing the

437
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 3: immigrants through the fields.

438
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 1: That's never happened. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Well,

439
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 1: look who said it? Oh, yeah, now it makes sense.

440
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 1: Doesn't know No, no, no, I'm kind of get it now,

441
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,920
Speaker 1: I get it. Now, let's turn our attention to CNN

442
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 1: where Harry Inton, who's their polling guy. And I like

443
00:25:55,840 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 1: Harry Inton. He's not Republican, he's not Democrat. He a

444
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: nerd that loves numbers, right, He's your total math nerd.

445
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,400
Speaker 1: He's super energetic. He kind of brings a little juice

446
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 1: to see an end. Honestly, Harry Inton and Scott Jennings.

447
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 1: Scott Jennings with the only reason to watch that network.

448
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 1: He's got new polling that shows what happened with Maduro

449
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:25,880
Speaker 1: and Venezuela has caused President Trump to surge in the polls.

450
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:30,360
Speaker 2: Okay, US military ousting Maduro pre ousting, what you saw

451
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,439
Speaker 2: is the clear pluralite Americans opposed at forty seercent, just

452
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 2: twenty one percent support.

453
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,400
Speaker 1: Come over to this side of the screen after the ousting.

454
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: Look at that the support through the roof.

455
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,359
Speaker 2: Now we're talking about thirty seven percent, well within the

456
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 2: margin of vara right.

457
00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 1: Here of the opposition thirty eight percent.

458
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 2: It turns out Americans like what they deem to be

459
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,920
Speaker 2: successful foreign policy operations, and in this case, they viewed

460
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,120
Speaker 2: the ousting Maduro, at least up to this point, as

461
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 2: a success one, and therefore the support.

462
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,400
Speaker 1: Way up, yeah, before underwater.

463
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:02,080
Speaker 2: Now basically, even what about the idea of putting Maduro

464
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 2: on trial here in the United States? Yeah, and you know,

465
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 2: part of the reason why I think that the success

466
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 2: number is way up and you're sword here, what was

467
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,400
Speaker 2: it was twenty six points in favor of opposition now

468
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 2: within the margin of era, is because they simply put.

469
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 1: Don't like Nicholas Maduro.

470
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,439
Speaker 2: In fact, they believe that he should be on trial

471
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 2: for drug trafficking. Look at this, fifty percent of Americans

472
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 2: favor compared to just fourteen percent who opposed. So there

473
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 2: are very few Americans here who opposed it. Even among Democrats,

474
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 2: the opposition that kick is below get okay, you can.

475
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 1: Stop it right there. Even among Democrats they're like, well,

476
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 1: now that we got him, let's put him on trial.

477
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 1: That's a big number. Basically, Trump went up twenty five

478
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 1: percentage points in popularity after the Maduro attack. And it's

479
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:54,160
Speaker 1: not just Republicans, it was Democrats too, And it's being

480
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 1: talked about on CNN again. The only people that are

481
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 1: bitching and moaning about what happened with Maduro China, Russia,

482
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 1: Iran and white liberals on social media. That's it it's

483
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 1: the Hammer and Nigel show. Swear to god, I don't

484
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 1: know about you. Hammer. I was addicted.

485
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 3: I could not stop watching Trump's stand up comedy special

486
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 3: earlier today at the GOP retreat, where he just stood

487
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 3: up there and just hammered people for like two hours straight.

488
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 1: Did you watch any of them? It was like he

489
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 1: was recording a Netflix special.

490
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 3: Here he is having a lot of fun talking about

491
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 3: the transgender's lifting weights and boxing versus women.

492
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 7: Crazy, and that they have a young gentleman who transitioned

493
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 7: who's a very good boxer, but he wanted to be

494
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 7: a woman, which is.

495
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: You know, hey to each his aunt.

496
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 7: Because I want to be very liberal when it comes

497
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 7: to these subjects. I'm trying to get that vote. It's

498
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 7: not an easy vote to get it. It's very tough

499
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 7: for me to get it the vote. He transitioned, and

500
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 7: he's he transitioned. And the girl was a champion boxer

501
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 7: from Midaly. Remember she got up first round. He had

502
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,720
Speaker 7: a poom with a left, A left for those everybody

503
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 7: here knows, but a left, Lisa knows better than anybody,

504
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 7: but a left. His defense, he goes boom, She's like,

505
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 7: oh my, she.

506
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: Walked to the corner. I remember she didn't go down,

507
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 1: she didn't want to go back in.

508
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 7: But she hit everything else. But she said, I've never

509
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 7: been hit like that before. I want to go out again.

510
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 8: Uh.

511
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 1: And then apparently he let us in on a little

512
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: secret behind the scenes with him his relationship with Milania Trump.

513
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 1: She doesn't like the the Ymca dancing. She doesn't like

514
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 1: the Trump dance. It's not like the Trump dance.

515
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 7: My wife. By the way, my wife hates when I

516
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 7: do this.

517
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 5: She said.

518
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 7: You know, she's a very classy person, right, She said,

519
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 7: it's so unpresidential. I said, but I did become president.

520
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 1: Good boy, somebody she hates when I dance.

521
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 7: I said, everybody wants me to dance, Darling, it's not presidential.

522
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 7: She actually said, could you imagine FDR dancing?

523
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 1: She said that to me, who's in a wheelchair. What's

524
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 1: in a wheelchair?

525
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 7: I said, it's a long history that perhaps she doesn't know,

526
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 7: because he was an elegant fellow even as a Democrat, right,

527
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,959
Speaker 7: he was the attack by Japan.

528
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 1: You know, like, honestly, we could play we could spend

529
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 1: an entire show playing clips from this stand up comedy

530
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 1: routine at the GOP Retreat today from Donald Trump. I

531
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 1: love hates the dance. I love the dance. Love it.

532
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 1: Everybody does, right, people at weddings now do the dance.

533
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 1: It's the hambur and Nigel show, Hammer and Nigel. Do

534
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 1: you believe these characters are weird of us? I'm not.

535
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 3: Some good news Hammer, bring it from WIBC dot com.

536
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 3: According to the Diana Department of Education, nearly ninety two

537
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 3: percent of Indiana seniors graduated from high school last year.

538
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 3: That beats the previous record of ninety point two to

539
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 3: three percent the year before.

540
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 1: All Right, so I'm trying not to be cynical here. Okay, yes,

541
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: you're right, it's good news. But you're telling me that

542
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: the last two years have been the record for seniors graduating.

543
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 1: Am I expected to believe that high school seniors have

544
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 1: just been getting smarter every year? Because I gotta tell you, well,

545
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 1: that's what I see some of my youngest son's high

546
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 1: school friends, and this is the tide pod eating generation.

547
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: And I just find it hard to believe that everybody

548
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 1: is record level smart now compared to years past, Like

549
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: this is the third consecutive year of improved graduation rates.

550
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 1: I'm wondering, and I do not have this information in

551
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 1: front of me. Do these schools get funding, extra money

552
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:12,960
Speaker 1: for their graduation numbers for passing kids through? Are the

553
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 1: teachers just sending them through? Ye? And that's a good point.

554
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 3: Are the students elevating or are the school systems making

555
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 3: it easier to graduate?

556
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,160
Speaker 1: Right? Do they just want to get rid of you

557
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: and survive in advance? Like if you're telling me you

558
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 1: see some sort of difference in society the last three

559
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 1: years of Wow, these these high school kids, they're really smart.

560
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 1: I'm really noticing a trend here. They're ready to take

561
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: over the world. Here are the keys. I don't see that.

562
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 1: These were the people that were burning themselves on coils

563
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 1: on YouTube. These were the people that were eating tidepods.

564
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 1: These were the people that were climbing up on milk crate.

565
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 1: We're so cynical, like you said, oh this hurts? Can't

566
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:03,080
Speaker 1: we just be happy? Now you're calling your kids friends dumb? Yes,

567
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: not all of them, not all of them, but quite

568
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: a few. I don't think it's record level smart, is

569
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I think these schools are getting more

570
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 1: funding the more kids that they can pass through like

571
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 1: if the state says, wow, look at school A over here,

572
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 1: they've got a graduation rate of this percentage, let's give

573
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 1: them more funding. That's what I think is happening here.

574
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily think it's all of a sudden fingers

575
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 1: were snapped and people are smarter black, Hispanic, White English learners.

576
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 1: Special education percentage numbers all up from the previous year.

577
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 1: Nobody at all talking about graduat talking about graduating rates.

578
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 1: So the teachers, that's the other angle here. You're telling

579
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 1: me the teachers now are so much better than what

580
00:33:55,520 --> 00:34:00,440
Speaker 1: they were, you know, prior to three years ago. Man,

581
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 1: I just feel like if you follow the money, you'll

582
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:07,800
Speaker 1: see a correlation with this record level of graduation rate.

583
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 1: That's all that I'm saying. Okay, you know who I

584
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 1: think is cool in a very nerdy way. White House

585
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 1: advisor Stephen Miller. Oh, Dracula. Yeah, Yeah, he's he's Yes,

586
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: he's a killer man. He knows the stuff.

587
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,879
Speaker 3: He's kind of nerd. But I wouldn't in the way

588
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:31,480
Speaker 3: i'd sit there and debate him.

589
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: No on any day, Like he's got to take you down, man,

590
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,360
Speaker 1: President Trump's ear Yes, he's the White House advisor and

591
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,640
Speaker 1: he's fearless. He's that bald guy that you see going

592
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 1: toe to toe with CNN and MSNBC all the time.

593
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:50,800
Speaker 1: But he's super smart. And something about being super smart

594
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,520
Speaker 1: I think is cool but also kind of makes you

595
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: a nerd. At the same time, here is White House

596
00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: Deputy Chief of Staff Steven Miller not ruling out using

597
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:06,360
Speaker 1: military force to take over Greenland when he was on CNN.

598
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 9: The United States should have Greenland as part of the

599
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,319
Speaker 9: United States. There's no need to even think or talk

600
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,319
Speaker 9: about this in the context the you're asking of a

601
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:21,320
Speaker 9: military operation. Nobody's going to fight the United States militarily.

602
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: Over the What happened? Get cut off? Got cut off?

603
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 1: All right? Well, I think you get the point there.

604
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,799
Speaker 3: He's arguing that US should be like do like kind

605
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 3: of an Alaska deal, you know what I mean, Like

606
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,760
Speaker 3: an Alaska type bargain. They're not talking about the United

607
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,320
Speaker 3: States militarily going out and taking over Greenland now that

608
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 3: they're trying to annex it, and there's military benefits and

609
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 3: economic re sources that would benefit the United States. But

610
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,239
Speaker 3: the military stuff is like there's a military base up

611
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,319
Speaker 3: there with strategic warning system and it would allow you know,

612
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 3: unrestricted access to you know, expanding the threat of Russia

613
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,479
Speaker 3: and China and the Arctic. So when we're talking about

614
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,479
Speaker 3: this is it's I don't know how how they would

615
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 3: do it, but proponents are saying this is kind of

616
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,719
Speaker 3: like a bargained like Alaska type deal rush they would.

617
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 1: We're not talking hostile takeover here, no right sending delta

618
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:11,160
Speaker 1: force in there in the middle of the night like

619
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:15,839
Speaker 1: they did Maduro. That's not what's happening here. But if

620
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,480
Speaker 1: given the opportunity to play, let's make a deal. I

621
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,719
Speaker 1: think Greenland could make out like bandits on this and

622
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: the United States would absolutely do it. It makes sense.

623
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 1: But I'm not holding my breath that this is going

624
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: to happen now. While he was also on CNN, this

625
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,279
Speaker 1: may be the best eighty seconds of your day. It's

626
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,239
Speaker 1: a little longer of a SoundBite than I liked it

627
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 1: normally play, but just going toe to toe. We were

628
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 1: talking about smug people earlier. Jake Tapper of CNN one

629
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 1: of the most smug people on television, and I don't

630
00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 1: know why his ratings are ass He had a horrible

631
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 1: book that nobody bought other than his donors. Like the

632
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:58,600
Speaker 1: people that do these super packs and try to lift

633
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 1: up the liberal media. No person bought a Jake Tapper

634
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:07,560
Speaker 1: book for Christmas. Jake Tapper talking with Stephen Miller about

635
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 1: the Maduro Raid. The future of.

636
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:14,239
Speaker 9: The free World, Jake, depends on America being able to

637
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 9: assert ourselves and our interests with that apology, this whole

638
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:22,880
Speaker 9: period that happened after World War Two where the West

639
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 9: began apologizing and groveling and begging. What you're talking about,

640
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 9: It's what I'm talking about, Jake, is the idea. And

641
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 9: by the way you do, I know you love doing

642
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,359
Speaker 9: that smarmy thing, Jake, and I.

643
00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 1: Was hoping better than that this time.

644
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 2: I asked you about if it should be an election Exactly,

645
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 2: I asked you if.

646
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 1: There would be an election in Venezuela. That's what I asked.

647
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,840
Speaker 2: I said, why was the president so quick did dismiss Machado?

648
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:47,760
Speaker 1: You answer that question, and then I said.

649
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,840
Speaker 9: The objective, Jake, is security and stability for the people

650
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 9: of Venezuela. With our help and leadership, that country will

651
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,000
Speaker 9: become more prosperous than it has ever been in his

652
00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,279
Speaker 9: whole history. The reason why I was giving you that

653
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,879
Speaker 9: speech which you didn't want to hear is because you're

654
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 9: approaching this from the wrong frame, this neoliberal frame of

655
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 9: the United States, jobs that go around the world, and

656
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 9: in demanding immediate elections be held everywhere, immediately, all the time,

657
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 9: right away to vacuums.

658
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:14,439
Speaker 1: That's not what I think.

659
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 2: But you invade the country, wight into the country, and

660
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 2: we seized the leader of Venezuela straight we did.

661
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: And I'm going to have elections that We're not.

662
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:29,439
Speaker 9: Going to let Tim Pott communist dictators send rapists into

663
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 9: our country, send drugs into our country, send weapons into

664
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 9: our country, and we're not gonna let the country fall

665
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 9: into the hands of our adversaries.

666
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 1: Listen, how defeated yet still smug Jack Tapper sounds okay, okay,

667
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 1: move on, okay again, Why anybody on CNN what have

668
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 1: an ego? Is beyond me.

669
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 3: The corporate legacy media doesn't have any credibility. Ninety negative

670
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,880
Speaker 3: coverage of Donald Trump leading up to the election, and

671
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 3: he won in a landslide popular.

672
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:05,920
Speaker 1: Vote electoral college.

673
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,120
Speaker 3: It wasn't even close Swing states, it wasn't even close,

674
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:10,719
Speaker 3: zero credibility whatsoever.

675
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 1: And the popular vote one, it doesn't even matter, but

676
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,919
Speaker 1: two It's set up to be won by the Democrats

677
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 1: because you look at some of the big cities where

678
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:24,680
Speaker 1: the freeloaders all live at, they predominantly vote blue because

679
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,960
Speaker 1: they believe in free stuff even though it doesn't exist.

680
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 1: That's how you rig the popular vote. It's set up

681
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:35,319
Speaker 1: for the Democrats to win. And the Democrats still lost it.

682
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 1: They lost it. And you've got smug Jake Tapper up there. Okay, okay,

683
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:45,920
Speaker 1: nobody watches his show like nobody watches CNN. Those dirtbags

684
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 1: have been in third place for years. So why of

685
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: any network are they the most arrogant? The Bokari sellers,

686
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:59,320
Speaker 1: the Jake Tappers? Why do these guys have an attitude?

687
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 1: No idea ever presents. It depends upon what the meaning

688
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:14,400
Speaker 1: of the word is. Is this anything.

689
00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 3: Rought you by Indiana Unclaimed Presented by the Attorney General's

700
00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:58,959
Speaker 1: twenty year old numb nuts in the back. I'm trying

701
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 1: to be a good teammate here. So Chad, if that

00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,839
Speaker 1: you enjoyed the program. But think before you type next time.

707
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 1: You came off like an a hole. Anyway, Is this anything?

708
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,440
Speaker 1: A postal worker in Florida has been arrested after trying

709
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 1: to run a ten year old on a scooter off

710
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 1: the road using his mail truck. What so, there's a

711
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 1: ten year old on one of those scooters and there's

712
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:38,840
Speaker 1: a mailman in Florida tried to run him off the

713
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 1: road in his truck. He thought the kid was a

714
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:45,080
Speaker 1: porch pirate. Oh, but he was just trying to bring

715
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:49,040
Speaker 1: a wrongly delivered package to the right address. Here's the

716
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 1: police on how it went.

717
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,160
Speaker 10: Down, says that just a simple oops crash with a

718
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:55,360
Speaker 10: ten year old on the road. This is an intentional

719
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 10: act by the United States Postal worker. You know, it's

720
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,800
Speaker 10: amazing what a small conversation would do in a situation,

721
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 10: rather than jumping straight to force, use of force, or

722
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 10: putting your hands on somebody, or just really escalating the

723
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:10,200
Speaker 10: situation way past where he should have been. It's a

724
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:13,160
Speaker 10: ten year old on a scooter, not a normal porch

725
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 10: pirate running up snatching packages.

726
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:16,200
Speaker 1: That you just dropped off.

727
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:19,319
Speaker 3: Oh I tell you what if the official mailman of

728
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 3: this radio show justin I ever saw a porch pirate.

729
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 3: He delivers mail in Hendricks County somewhere, he'd run his

730
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:26,759
Speaker 3: ass over.

731
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,399
Speaker 1: When I first heard this story, I had to double

732
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 1: check that it wasn't just in Central Indiana. Now, of course,

733
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:38,600
Speaker 1: of course his lunatic should be arrested. You don't.

734
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,080
Speaker 3: First of all, the kid was trying to do the

735
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:43,280
Speaker 3: right thing and delivering the package at the right place

736
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:45,480
Speaker 3: and is ten years old.

737
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:46,879
Speaker 1: I don't care if.

738
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 3: He is trying to steal the package. Yeah, this guy

739
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:50,960
Speaker 3: should be in jail. This is something.

740
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 1: Now, you say the mailman may be joining us on

741
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 1: Friday down at coaches. I would love to get his

742
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,279
Speaker 1: perspective on this, you know, get a few drinks in

743
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,920
Speaker 1: him first. Be honest, we'll bring him up. If you

744
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,279
Speaker 1: thought somebody was being a porch pirate, whether it's a

745
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 1: ten year old kid or a fifty year old man,

746
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:10,440
Speaker 1: would you run him over? Okay, be curious to hear

747
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 1: his answer. Uh, let's keep it in the uh the

748
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:18,920
Speaker 1: mail industry. Here, a Florida man was arrested for allegedly

749
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 1: pretending to be a mailman and stealing from other mailboxes.

750
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:28,080
Speaker 1: Here's some of the initial interrogation when officers first arrested

751
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 1: Sean Cronin.

752
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 9: You want to explain to me why you were sticking

753
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 9: your hand in mailboxes?

754
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:34,560
Speaker 1: This is your mic?

755
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:36,359
Speaker 8: What's in there?

756
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 1: A bike? I want a mail for them?

757
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:41,960
Speaker 6: What the mailboxes that are open all over the place,

758
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:43,320
Speaker 6: all over the place.

759
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,480
Speaker 1: You ever seen a mailman ride a bike? I don't

760
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 1: think I have. I don't think they ride bikes. They

761
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:52,640
Speaker 1: walk their route, those black socks, pedaling their little lasses

762
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:55,840
Speaker 1: off in the summertime, wearing the shorts suck.

763
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:58,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is something. I just watched the episode of

764
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 3: Seinfeld where Newman wanted to move to get a transfer

765
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,960
Speaker 3: to Hawaii. You remember that and Jerry but he couldn't

766
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:07,799
Speaker 3: deliver all his mail that he had because he was

767
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:09,640
Speaker 3: storn it in the locker and just thrown it away. So

768
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 3: Jerry really wanted to get rid of a Newman, and

769
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:13,719
Speaker 3: he became a mailman to help him deliver the mail

770
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:19,000
Speaker 3: so he could get his transfer to Hawaii. Little song

771
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,840
Speaker 3: that he's whistling, and he was delivering it too fast

772
00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:25,359
Speaker 3: because I didn't get Newman goes, I didn't get my transfer,

773
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:28,560
Speaker 3: and Jerry's like, why not? Because the mail got delivered

774
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 3: on time and they knew.

775
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:33,200
Speaker 1: It wasn't me. I get it. We could probably do

776
00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:36,120
Speaker 1: a full show with the official mailman, sure, like just

777
00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:39,319
Speaker 1: running these topics through him real quick. Going back to

778
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:42,960
Speaker 1: the YouTube chat, Dolorean writes, I just came here to

779
00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:46,400
Speaker 1: give a thumbs up for hammer roasting chat. Prank you,

780
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 1: thank you, it worked. Last one? Is this anything? The

781
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:56,320
Speaker 1: world's oldest twinkie turning fifty years old. A chemistry teacher

782
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 1: in Maye What opened it back up in nineteen seventy

783
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:03,839
Speaker 1: six after a student asked how long it lasts. It'd

784
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 1: been sitting in class in a case in this school

785
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 1: for decades since nineteen seventy six. Here's the retired science

786
00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:17,080
Speaker 1: teacher Roger talking about the world's oldest twinkie.

787
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 11: One of my students just happened to ask me, well,

788
00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:21,920
Speaker 11: how long would a twinkie last? And I said, well,

789
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:24,279
Speaker 11: let's do an experiment. So I gave the student a

790
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:26,360
Speaker 11: couple of dollars, asked the student to go down to

791
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:29,200
Speaker 11: marylon Hinckley's and pick up a package of Twinkies. I

792
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:32,759
Speaker 11: basically unripped the package, ate one of the twinkies, and

793
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:35,640
Speaker 11: then put the other package up on the chalkboard. I

794
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:38,800
Speaker 11: basically say, the twinkie has become much like me. It's older,

795
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 11: it's grayer, and it's more flaky, you know, but it's

796
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:43,920
Speaker 11: become more griddle, so you could no longer take it,

797
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:45,279
Speaker 11: and you know, you wouldn't want to whack it on

798
00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:47,480
Speaker 11: a table because we probably shatter the twinkie.

799
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,400
Speaker 3: I tell you what, Yeah, this is something. I could

800
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,640
Speaker 3: rock a twinkie like nobody's business. When I was a kid.

801
00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:58,080
Speaker 1: Man if eaten, like if you could overdose on twinkies,

802
00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:04,000
Speaker 1: I'd be dead. Twinkie Dead. It's the Hammer and Nigel Show.

803
00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:08,880
Speaker 3: A little segment we'd like to call caller Roulette. Usually

804
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 3: we screen the calls that we take. We don't take

805
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:13,960
Speaker 3: very many live calls from the people that are listening

806
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 3: to the show. It was a very irresponsible segment actually

807
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:18,920
Speaker 3: of a radio show to do.

808
00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:22,840
Speaker 1: Right, considering we've got everything to lose and based on

809
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:26,719
Speaker 1: the calls we normally get hardly nothing to gain. The

810
00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:30,280
Speaker 1: last time we did call a roulette was when Nige

811
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:34,040
Speaker 1: was on vacation and Chris Hammer was here. Yeah, great job.

812
00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:37,239
Speaker 1: We had a great run. Every call was great, and

813
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:40,440
Speaker 1: then Charles called in. Oh Charles, I'm sorry I missed that,

814
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:43,920
Speaker 1: and I may have snapped at Charles, and I kind

815
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,520
Speaker 1: of felt bad afterwards because all he was doing was

816
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 1: bitching and moaning and then, you know, stumbling through something,

817
00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:52,359
Speaker 1: and I did not want to end the year like that,

818
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:55,000
Speaker 1: so I yelled at Charles, and I kind of feel

819
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:58,760
Speaker 1: bad about it, Actually I don't. But we took another

820
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:02,440
Speaker 1: call afterwards and we had a great end of the year. Okay, good.

821
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:04,319
Speaker 1: This is the first time we've done it in twenty

822
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:08,279
Speaker 1: twenty six, so pressure's on these callers. I want to

823
00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:12,160
Speaker 1: get off onto a great first step. In twenty twenty six,

824
00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:15,320
Speaker 1: here do it. Eric is up first. Eric, Welcome to

825
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:17,640
Speaker 1: the Hammer in Nigel show what you got man?

826
00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 12: Okay, Well, hopefully we get started on a good note

827
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:25,399
Speaker 12: here in twenty twenty six, there is an institution down

828
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:29,160
Speaker 12: in Vincen's Indiana and a professor there by the name

829
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:34,320
Speaker 12: of Virgil Franklin, and he is a voice doppelganger for Nigel.

830
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:36,080
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna need you to look him up.

831
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:37,680
Speaker 12: Be awesome to get him on the show. Have a

832
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:38,560
Speaker 12: conversation with me.

833
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:41,879
Speaker 1: Okay, now, listen, I gotta be honest with you, Eric.

834
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,520
Speaker 1: If I'm going to Vincenn's, I'm not going to look

835
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:49,160
Speaker 1: up the Nigel doppelganger. I'm going to the Ponderosa, one

836
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:49,920
Speaker 1: of the last.

837
00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,319
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, how did you forget one of the.

838
00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:56,279
Speaker 1: Last Ponderosa's in existence in Vincen's Indiana's Scoot, Let's go

839
00:47:56,320 --> 00:47:59,480
Speaker 1: see the Nigel doppelganger. Only if we go to Ponderosa,

840
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 1: you and I can have a mandate, Nige. We'll go

841
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,560
Speaker 1: down there. Maybe we'll stop off in Tara Hote and

842
00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:06,880
Speaker 1: go to the casino like It and then head back

843
00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:12,360
Speaker 1: to Indy, Eric, thank you. Victor is up next, Victor?

844
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:16,479
Speaker 1: What's happening? Go ahead? Victor?

845
00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:19,920
Speaker 5: Hey, I just want to say Rob Kendall is a tool.

846
00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:22,520
Speaker 5: He screams too much and he sounds like an idiot.

847
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,920
Speaker 1: All right, Hey, we're off and running right now. Flip

848
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 1: that and send it to Rob Allison. That's got to

849
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,239
Speaker 1: be a promo for the Kendall and Casey show. Right,

850
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:34,120
Speaker 1: He's gonna want to play that tomorrow at some point.

851
00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:40,560
Speaker 1: I believe this is Drake for America. Drake, how are you?

852
00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:42,640
Speaker 5: What's going on?

853
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:43,080
Speaker 1: Guys?

854
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:43,719
Speaker 5: How are we doing?

855
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,680
Speaker 13: Hope everyone's doing good, being good, making good choices, but

856
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:48,480
Speaker 13: always remember bad decisions.

857
00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:50,040
Speaker 5: Well, they make the best stories, don't.

858
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:50,560
Speaker 1: They, don't they?

859
00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:51,240
Speaker 5: Mister Hammer?

860
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:52,200
Speaker 12: Don't you agree what.

861
00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:54,520
Speaker 5: Goes on in Vegas? States in Vegas or sometimes leaked out?

862
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:56,239
Speaker 1: Oh no, some of that stuff comes back with you.

863
00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 5: Man.

864
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:59,359
Speaker 1: I've been to Vegas a number of times to say

865
00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:02,160
Speaker 1: some of that's U can come back nice.

866
00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:02,319
Speaker 7: Well.

867
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:03,799
Speaker 13: I hope you guys are having a good New year.

868
00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:06,120
Speaker 13: I however, I gotta tell you I'm going through some

869
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:09,160
Speaker 13: WIBC withdrawals. I'm really hoping you can at least answer

870
00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:11,239
Speaker 13: me this question. Are we going to have a night

871
00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:13,799
Speaker 13: with WIBC in twenty twenty six?

872
00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:14,360
Speaker 5: Please say that?

873
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:18,160
Speaker 1: Oh wow, So that's up to the promotional team here.

874
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 1: I got to be honest with you. As a gambling man,

875
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:26,080
Speaker 1: my money says no, because here's the real reality, all right,

876
00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:28,840
Speaker 1: the behind the scenes of this event. It costs an

877
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:32,520
Speaker 1: awful lot to put on, and it's so time consuming

878
00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:38,000
Speaker 1: for management and the digital people because every show, we've

879
00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:40,440
Speaker 1: got so much stuff we want on the screens and

880
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:44,959
Speaker 1: music and video and time. It takes a lot of time.

881
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:47,480
Speaker 1: And there's like a million damn stations that we're partnered

882
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:50,200
Speaker 1: with now. I just don't think they've got the time

883
00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:50,680
Speaker 1: to pull it all.

884
00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:53,200
Speaker 3: We're going to do a lot more individual show stuff

885
00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 3: like Hammery Night. You're going to be out on the

886
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 3: road a lot more.

887
00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:58,800
Speaker 1: Right now, somebody in the YouTube chat brought up the

888
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:02,880
Speaker 1: crew or the trip to Vegas, which is still something

889
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:06,359
Speaker 1: that I think is in play. But the amount of

890
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:11,720
Speaker 1: legal stuff that goes into that is what makes it

891
00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:15,880
Speaker 1: takes so long to finalize. Because like a cruise, for example,

892
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:20,160
Speaker 1: somebody gets drunk, falls overboard, we can't be held liable

893
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:23,640
Speaker 1: for that. Somebody goes to Vegas, makes a bad decision,

894
00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:27,840
Speaker 1: gets handsy, gets arrested or whatnot. We're not liable for that.

895
00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:32,400
Speaker 1: So lawyers have made fun trips a pain in the

896
00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:36,839
Speaker 1: butt for companies and media members. Wow. You know there

897
00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:40,359
Speaker 1: was a radio station in Indie number of years ago

898
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:43,600
Speaker 1: that had a big promotion where everybody goes to a

899
00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:46,239
Speaker 1: hotel and you check in, we have a big party.

900
00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:51,960
Speaker 1: Somebody was sexually assaulted and I believe the station was

901
00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:52,680
Speaker 1: held liable.

902
00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:53,239
Speaker 5: Wow.

903
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:56,280
Speaker 1: Even though the hosts and everything didn't do anything wrong,

904
00:50:56,840 --> 00:51:00,000
Speaker 1: their guests had an issue. So when I say there's

905
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:03,239
Speaker 1: the legal stuff, that's what we're talking about. But trust me,

906
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:06,480
Speaker 1: I'm working the salespeople every minute I can get for

907
00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:10,200
Speaker 1: a cruise or a trip to Vegas or something. Let's

908
00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:12,959
Speaker 1: go to Ben Ben. Welcome to the Hammer and Nigel Show.

909
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:15,759
Speaker 12: Hey, I hope you.

910
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:17,680
Speaker 14: Guys are hope you guys are doing good. Earlier, you

911
00:51:17,719 --> 00:51:21,759
Speaker 14: guys were talking about the increase in the Indiana graduation

912
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:25,080
Speaker 14: rates and somebody who works in education, I wanted to

913
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:29,799
Speaker 14: provide some context because you guys are totally right. I

914
00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:33,400
Speaker 14: don't know necessarily about all the money, but there's a lot,

915
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,799
Speaker 14: a lot of new policies like no zero policies, like

916
00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,680
Speaker 14: even if the student turns in nothing. There's a lot

917
00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,960
Speaker 14: of administrations out there that manday the teacher gives them

918
00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:46,319
Speaker 14: a fifty percent on an assignment. Is if they turn

919
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:50,799
Speaker 14: nothing in. That is bushing these graduation rates higher, even

920
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:52,359
Speaker 14: though the learning might not be as high.

921
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 1: Now if you're just tuning in. This is in regards

922
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:58,640
Speaker 1: to the report that Indiana Department of Education put out,

923
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,000
Speaker 1: and they're kind of doing a victory lap that it's

924
00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:04,799
Speaker 1: a record number of high school seniors that graduated this year.

925
00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:08,400
Speaker 1: It's up from the record a year ago. And the

926
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:11,239
Speaker 1: last three years are the most high school seniors by

927
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:14,919
Speaker 1: percentage that's ever graduated. And Nige and I were being

928
00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:18,279
Speaker 1: a little cynical with the numbers, just a tad. Are

929
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:19,600
Speaker 1: the students.

930
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:24,480
Speaker 3: Elevating or are we making it easier to graduate?

931
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:26,960
Speaker 1: Sir? On the phone, it's education.

932
00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:30,279
Speaker 14: Yeah, I yeah, you.

933
00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:33,320
Speaker 3: Know, I want to believe that the students are elevating.

934
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:34,160
Speaker 3: I want to believe that.

935
00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:37,760
Speaker 14: Yeah, I want to believe that too, But I also

936
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 14: see a lot of policies that you know, and I

937
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:44,280
Speaker 14: mean teachers go back and forth, like in the industry,

938
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:46,600
Speaker 14: will debate. I'm like, well, is this a good policy?

939
00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:52,760
Speaker 14: You're not, But honestly, I think it inflates graduation rates more.

940
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:53,160
Speaker 1: Than it helps.

941
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:54,399
Speaker 14: I mean, I didn't get that.

942
00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:57,839
Speaker 1: Policy and I was no way. Yeah, right on either, Ben.

Speaker 1: little fun segment by doing something I think you would enjoy.

995
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:20,600
Speaker 1: Nige me, because you are a Nickelback supporter, unapologetic. You've

996
00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:24,279
Speaker 1: always defended them against you know, jokes when they were

997
00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:27,480
Speaker 1: the easy punching bag and pop culture. You have defended

998
00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:35,520
Speaker 1: Nickelback's honor. Some social media influencer decided to remix Nickelback's

999
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:41,720
Speaker 1: song Photograph This time it's about even more photographs. Okay,

1000
00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:42,800
Speaker 1: take a listen.

1001
00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:51,200
Speaker 15: Phonograph it's a photo of a photo graph. There's another

1002
00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:59,200
Speaker 15: photo graph because a photograph, so many photo.

1003
00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:02,600
Speaker 1: Graphs make me want to make a graph.

1004
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:07,680
Speaker 15: I should probably need a photo graph photo.

1005
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:13,400
Speaker 1: There you go. It's a little bit more about photographs.

1006
00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:15,239
Speaker 1: You know, the one Nickelback.

1007
00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:19,280
Speaker 3: It's the same song photograph I can't get enough of.

1008
00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:22,959
Speaker 1: It's been viewed like hundreds of millions of times. Where

1009
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:23,600
Speaker 1: chet you know?

1010
00:57:23,600 --> 00:57:27,080
Speaker 3: Because the music video Chad Kroger, the lead singer Nickelbags,

1011
00:57:27,080 --> 00:57:29,520
Speaker 3: holding up an actual photograph in.

1012
00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:30,720
Speaker 1: The video in a frame.

1013
00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:35,440
Speaker 3: But this one says they did they reworked it on YouTube,

1014
00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:38,960
Speaker 3: and it's just it's a picture of a graph.

1015
00:57:39,240 --> 00:57:41,800
Speaker 1: And it's just it's kind of off to look at

1016
00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:46,240
Speaker 1: this graph. A graph is real long.

1017
00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:49,360
Speaker 3: Look that up on YouTube during the break. If you

1018
00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:53,400
Speaker 3: don't have time, look at this graph. It's just holding

1019
00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:56,280

1036
00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:54,120
Speaker 1: night was the first City County Council meeting of this year.

1037
00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:57,600
Speaker 1: Catch us up to date. What are the folks that

1038
00:58:57,680 --> 00:59:01,360
Speaker 1: are the movers and shakers of Indianapolis talking about? Certainly? Certainly.

1039
00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:03,680
Speaker 1: So last night was a bit of a.

1040
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:08,080
Speaker 16: Different meeting, primarily because it was an election of officers.

1041
00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:11,280
Speaker 16: So vop Ostile is no longer the president of the

1042
00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:13,080
Speaker 16: City Council, and so we had to elect a new

1043
00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:16,120
Speaker 16: president vice president of the Council, which was a big

1044
00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:19,240
Speaker 16: deal because it hasn't happened in eight years. And what

1045
00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:22,000
Speaker 16: the president does is they run the Council office and

1046
00:59:22,040 --> 00:59:25,640
Speaker 16: so there's a staff of fifteen sixteen people over there

1047
00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:29,080
Speaker 16: and they hire them and then they're set the initiatives. Right,

1048
00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:32,360
Speaker 16: So that's the first thing we did is is elect

1049
00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:35,360
Speaker 16: a new president of the Council, which is it is

1050
00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:36,320
Speaker 16: currently Maggie Lewis.

1051
00:59:36,800 --> 00:59:39,160
Speaker 1: So she won the election. Is this a good thing?

1052
00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:41,880
Speaker 1: Is this any different than vop osily? I mean, I

1053
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,400
Speaker 1: know it's only been one meeting, but what's the feeling.

1054
00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:46,520
Speaker 16: Yeah, so she's been president in the past. She was

1055
00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:49,400
Speaker 16: president from twenty twelve to twenty seventeen, I believe, and

1056
00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:52,080
Speaker 16: the guy's been there forever and this was Maggie Lewis,

1057
00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:55,560
Speaker 16: and so so she you know, we put up our

1058
00:59:55,560 --> 00:59:57,960
Speaker 16: own candidate as the Republican Party. I mean we're saying, hey, look,

1059
00:59:57,960 --> 00:59:59,280
Speaker 16: we're going to LEAs vote for our guy. Right, we

1060
00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:01,160
Speaker 16: knew going in and right we've got six votes. We're

1061
01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:03,160
Speaker 16: not going to really be successful, but we're going to

1062
01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:05,160
Speaker 16: give it a shot. And it turned out how you

1063
01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:09,760
Speaker 16: would expect. But for the reasons that we believe is

1064
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:11,800
Speaker 16: that she's not going to change much of anything. If

1065
01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:15,240
Speaker 16: you look back at what opportunity she's had over the time.

1066
01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:17,400
Speaker 16: I mean, just looking back at our recent budget. I

1067
01:00:17,400 --> 01:00:20,000
Speaker 16: mean we were silenced on our own budget conversations. We

1068
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:22,400
Speaker 16: were trying to ask questions about the budget. You know,

1069
01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:24,920
Speaker 16: she was silent on all the stuff with the sexual

1070
01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:28,200
Speaker 16: harassment allegations with Joe Hawks and everything going on there.

1071
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:31,080
Speaker 16: She's been president in the past, and our city is

1072
01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:33,320
Speaker 16: still in the same shape that it is now. So

1073
01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:36,080
Speaker 16: do we expect a different outcome. I'd like to be

1074
01:00:36,080 --> 01:00:38,560
Speaker 16: optimistic and say yes for the city of Indianapolis, But

1075
01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:40,160
Speaker 16: but the real media and the real cock is last

1076
01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:42,040
Speaker 16: night we put up a different candidate because the answer

1077
01:00:42,080 --> 01:00:42,280
Speaker 16: was no.

1078
01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:46,080
Speaker 1: You bring up the sexual harassment scandal from the mayor's

1079
01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:49,640
Speaker 1: office and his former chief of staff Thomas Carl Cook.

1080
01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:53,760
Speaker 1: Thomas Carl Cook back in the news again. He is

1081
01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:56,240
Speaker 1: he is a grand jury looking at some stuff.

1082
01:00:56,880 --> 01:01:01,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, conflicts of interest and plus the touching, the inappropriate,

1083
01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:04,760
Speaker 3: the harassment or whatever. Right, Yeah, and that's so what's

1084
01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:07,280
Speaker 3: that I'm the indie star And why it's so important

1085
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:10,760
Speaker 3: now is it's translating over to the deals he was

1086
01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:13,400
Speaker 3: working on with the person he was having or one

1087
01:01:13,400 --> 01:01:15,360
Speaker 3: of the people he was having relationships with, who was

1088
01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:19,320
Speaker 3: Scarlett Andrews, who was the director of Metropolitan Development. So

1089
01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:22,320
Speaker 3: they have all the power for the authority to give

1090
01:01:22,360 --> 01:01:27,080
Speaker 3: out these incentives eighty million in incentives. And this is

1091
01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:29,560
Speaker 3: huge because a lot of these are some.

1092
01:01:29,520 --> 01:01:31,240
Speaker 16: Of these are grant dollars that are coming in from

1093
01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:33,200
Speaker 16: the state, some of which I'm trying to get in

1094
01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:35,960
Speaker 16: projects on the east side of Midnieapolis. Which is things

1095
01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:38,200
Speaker 16: that people say all around the city is why do

1096
01:01:38,280 --> 01:01:40,360
Speaker 16: all these grant dollars go downtown? Why don't they go

1097
01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:43,160
Speaker 16: into our townships. I'm trying to get him to go

1098
01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:45,240
Speaker 16: to the townships. But then you've got Thomas Carl Cook

1099
01:01:45,560 --> 01:01:48,280
Speaker 16: having these relations with the city leadership, funneled them all

1100
01:01:48,320 --> 01:01:50,080
Speaker 16: downtown to his personal pet projects.

1101
01:01:50,520 --> 01:01:53,120
Speaker 1: And again, this used to be the right hand man

1102
01:01:53,240 --> 01:01:56,720
Speaker 1: of Joe Hawk said, the centerpiece of the sexual harassment

1103
01:01:56,800 --> 01:02:01,760
Speaker 1: scandal and some horrible allegations against this guy. Many people

1104
01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:04,200
Speaker 1: feel like Joe Hawk sat knew what was going on,

1105
01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:07,800
Speaker 1: turned a blind eye, ultimately brought him back to work

1106
01:02:07,840 --> 01:02:11,120
Speaker 1: on his campaign. And I don't know about you, Counselor,

1107
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:14,560
Speaker 1: but this guy was so smug for a long time.

1108
01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:18,120
Speaker 1: He'd be trolling us on Twitter, just a mouthy little

1109
01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:21,840
Speaker 1: twerp to people like yourself and other Republicans in the city.

1110
01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:24,120
Speaker 1: And this dude is as crooked as you can find.

1111
01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:25,720
Speaker 1: And that's how he treated us.

1112
01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:27,600
Speaker 16: I mean, we only had a couple interactions, right, but

1113
01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:31,680
Speaker 16: I have a clear memory of my first day week

1114
01:02:31,720 --> 01:02:34,280
Speaker 16: as counselor. We had dinner with the mayor and there

1115
01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 16: was only five Republicans, so it wasn't a whole lot

1116
01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:36,400
Speaker 16: of people.

1117
01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:38,000
Speaker 1: The mayor and Thomas Cook.

1118
01:02:38,320 --> 01:02:40,120
Speaker 16: And the level of arrogance of this guy, just his

1119
01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:44,200
Speaker 16: body postures, mannerisms, holding the glass of wine, just laughing

1120
01:02:44,240 --> 01:02:45,160
Speaker 16: at his own jokes.

1121
01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:47,360
Speaker 1: I mean, that's exactly what you got. That's what happened

1122
01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:50,840
Speaker 1: when nerd nerds get popular for the first time, Right,

1123
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:54,040
Speaker 1: when nerds get popular or they get their first piece

1124
01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:56,560
Speaker 1: of tail, they don't know how to handle it. And

1125
01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:58,920
Speaker 1: that's what happened with this little needle winner. I'm sorry,

1126
01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:01,920
Speaker 1: but that's totally what happened here. Man. This report from

1127
01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:07,720
Speaker 1: the Indie Star, it is its wow, wow scathing. I

1128
01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:11,840
Speaker 1: believe the kids are scathing man. So in regards to

1129
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:15,280
Speaker 1: Joe Hogg, set again, I don't think you could rule

1130
01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:18,960
Speaker 1: out the fact that he might run again. He said

1131
01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:21,520
Speaker 1: that he wasn't his last trip around the sun here.

1132
01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:24,920
Speaker 1: But this loser can't get another job. Nobody wants to

1133
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:27,880
Speaker 1: hire this guy. He's got ex wives to pay for

1134
01:03:28,120 --> 01:03:30,480
Speaker 1: a bunch of bad decisions he's tried to work on.

1135
01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:33,080
Speaker 1: I don't think you've seen the end of him. And

1136
01:03:33,120 --> 01:03:34,880
Speaker 1: you were telling me before we went on the air

1137
01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:37,240
Speaker 1: he might have a new chief of staff coming up.

1138
01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:39,720
Speaker 16: Yeah, So what's really interesting on that is his chief

1139
01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:42,680
Speaker 16: of staff, which was Dan Parker, put in his two

1140
01:03:42,720 --> 01:03:45,280
Speaker 16: weeks notice or a month notice to be done with

1141
01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:46,960
Speaker 16: the role at the end of the year last year,

1142
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:47,919
Speaker 16: which is December thirty.

1143
01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:48,200
Speaker 1: First.

1144
01:03:48,640 --> 01:03:51,800
Speaker 16: What's really interested to note is that position is a

1145
01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:57,080
Speaker 16: very powerful position. I mean, he's running the city right.

1146
01:03:56,440 --> 01:04:00,080
Speaker 1: When Joe goes missing during riots, you're a charge.

1147
01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:02,720
Speaker 16: And here we are, what six days into the new year,

1148
01:04:02,880 --> 01:04:06,200
Speaker 16: and our city doesn't have a chief of staff so effectively,

1149
01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:08,520
Speaker 16: I mean, you could ask who's running the city right now,

1150
01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:09,920
Speaker 16: and that's a legitimate question.

1151
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:13,920
Speaker 1: Speaking with Michael Paul Hart from the city County Council

1152
01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:16,800
Speaker 1: had their first meeting last night. So what are some

1153
01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:19,600
Speaker 1: things that are on the docket for twenty twenty six, Like,

1154
01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:22,800
Speaker 1: what are some projects that you would like to see happen.

1155
01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:24,760
Speaker 1: What are some of the folks on the other side

1156
01:04:24,760 --> 01:04:27,040
Speaker 1: of the aisle trying to push on to us? Take

1157
01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:28,560
Speaker 1: a look into that crystal ball here.

1158
01:04:28,920 --> 01:04:32,080
Speaker 16: Yeah, you know, the I think reoccurring conversation we're going

1159
01:04:32,120 --> 01:04:34,320
Speaker 16: to continue to see is data centers coming up over

1160
01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:37,080
Speaker 16: and over again. It started to come up last night.

1161
01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:39,680
Speaker 16: It was a special resolution, a ceremonial thing that didn't

1162
01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:42,240
Speaker 16: mean anything, but it did bring up some insights to

1163
01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:45,360
Speaker 16: some of the other counselors working on some things, primarily

1164
01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:50,360
Speaker 16: bringing more transparency to the utility regulations that are often.

1165
01:04:50,320 --> 01:04:52,760
Speaker 1: Not discussed during these or are put under NDAs. Is

1166
01:04:52,800 --> 01:04:54,520
Speaker 1: that one of the things where you guys can actually

1167
01:04:54,560 --> 01:04:57,600
Speaker 1: agree on things, Republicans and Democrats, because it feels like

1168
01:04:57,960 --> 01:04:59,800
Speaker 1: the last time there was a data center trying to

1169
01:04:59,840 --> 01:05:02,080
Speaker 1: be push on your district, you had folks on the

1170
01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:04,600
Speaker 1: other side of the aisle go, hey, this is your district.

1171
01:05:04,640 --> 01:05:05,640
Speaker 1: I'll defer to you on this.

1172
01:05:05,880 --> 01:05:08,960
Speaker 16: We're finding a lot more room to agree and I

1173
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:12,360
Speaker 16: think for similar reasons are well overall. I mean, there's

1174
01:05:12,920 --> 01:05:15,800
Speaker 16: the tax abatement structures are bad, you know, the economic

1175
01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:19,800
Speaker 16: opportunities for the city of Indianapolis are bad. And then

1176
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:21,840
Speaker 16: on the environmental side is where you'll see a lot

1177
01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:24,800
Speaker 16: of the Democrat side really start to raise awareness the

1178
01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:28,840
Speaker 16: transparency both Republicans and Democrats agree on. So yeah, I

1179
01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:31,320
Speaker 16: think we're gonna be able to put together some things

1180
01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:33,880
Speaker 16: to try and make these more viable for the city

1181
01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:35,120
Speaker 16: when they do come in, at least in a more

1182
01:05:35,120 --> 01:05:35,919
Speaker 16: transparent way.

1183
01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:36,560
Speaker 1: Throughout the year.

1184
01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:39,160
Speaker 16: There's a couple of counselors putting some effort into that,

1185
01:05:39,200 --> 01:05:42,280
Speaker 16: and I plan on working on those as well. But

1186
01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:43,800
Speaker 16: right now it's the beginning of the year, so it's

1187
01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:46,160
Speaker 16: a lot of board appointments. I put out a phenomenal

1188
01:05:46,160 --> 01:05:48,960
Speaker 16: I'm gonna brag of myself, put out a phenomenal basically

1189
01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:50,560
Speaker 16: article on my own website, Michael Paul Hart.

1190
01:05:50,600 --> 01:05:54,000
Speaker 1: That's a Trump move right there. That's phenomenal. It's the

1191
01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:57,439
Speaker 1: greatest thing. It's pretty good. I'm not gonna lie.

1192
01:05:57,560 --> 01:05:59,880
Speaker 16: But it goes into the importance of these board appointments

1193
01:05:59,880 --> 01:06:01,400
Speaker 16: that a lot of people don't talk about. I mean,

1194
01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:03,720
Speaker 16: and we talk about, you know, how communities are developed,

1195
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:05,760
Speaker 16: you know why that new gas station popped up, or

1196
01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:08,160
Speaker 16: why all these houses over here have all this crappy

1197
01:06:08,200 --> 01:06:11,560
Speaker 16: siding on it, but it's devaluing your neighborhood. All these

1198
01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:14,880
Speaker 16: happen through the boards that are appointed by the mayor

1199
01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:17,960
Speaker 16: and the council. Well, now we're in board appointing season

1200
01:06:18,080 --> 01:06:20,360
Speaker 16: right now, and these are things that people need to

1201
01:06:20,360 --> 01:06:22,400
Speaker 16: pay attention to because they can come to these like

1202
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:24,200
Speaker 16: the public can come to these meetings where these board

1203
01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:26,760
Speaker 16: appointments happen, and they can sit there and yell and say,

1204
01:06:26,760 --> 01:06:28,920
Speaker 16: this person not qualified. They work in healthcare, but they

1205
01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:30,640
Speaker 16: want to make a decision on land use.

1206
01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:32,280
Speaker 1: It's those sorts of things that.

1207
01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:35,240
Speaker 16: We're experiencing right now, we will for the next couple

1208
01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:35,720
Speaker 16: of months.

1209
01:06:35,960 --> 01:06:38,120
Speaker 1: But if you yell about the sexual harassment, then Bob

1210
01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:40,120
Speaker 1: Oscley might kick you out. Yeah, you only get two

1211
01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:44,000
Speaker 1: minutes to yell. But counselor Michael Paul Hart, if somebody

1212
01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:46,400
Speaker 1: wants to reach out to you, if they've got questions,

1213
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:48,600
Speaker 1: where can they go? Yeah, so two places.

1214
01:06:48,600 --> 01:06:50,440
Speaker 16: They can go to Michael Paulheart dot com or they

1215
01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:51,760
Speaker 16: can go to smart Indie dot org.

1216
01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:52,800
Speaker 1: Either one of those places.

1217
01:06:52,880 --> 01:06:55,600
Speaker 16: You'll get me Smartdie. We're working to build and teach

1218
01:06:55,640 --> 01:06:58,680
Speaker 16: people all these things about the boards how to basically

1219
01:06:58,760 --> 01:07:01,000
Speaker 16: take control of their own community. So either one of

1220
01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:03,360
Speaker 16: those two places you'll get in contact with me, counselor

1221
01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:03,720

1227
01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:20,160
Speaker 8: You're looking good, Thank you very much.

1228
01:07:20,240 --> 01:07:22,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, did you make it to midnight New Year's Eve?

1229
01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:29,560
Speaker 1: First time? We checked out at eleven? Oh? Yeah, so

1230
01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:32,200
Speaker 1: close you got there? Yeah, we were back home.

1231
01:07:32,280 --> 01:07:35,960
Speaker 8: We had spent the first time ever family Christmas outside

1232
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:39,520
Speaker 8: of Jasper right, a whole crew, all the kids, spouses

1233
01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:42,760
Speaker 8: and seven grandkids, and they were tearing that place up.

1234
01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:45,280
Speaker 1: I bet they do today is to clean up they

1235
01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:48,600
Speaker 1: do that, Governor. We've been speaking for about thirty seconds,

1236
01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:50,840
Speaker 1: and I'm sure there's probably somebody already yelling at me

1237
01:07:50,880 --> 01:07:53,960
Speaker 1: on the YouTube. Why aren't you talking about property taxes yet?

1238
01:07:54,560 --> 01:07:56,480
Speaker 1: Like that's all we get when we bring you in

1239
01:07:56,520 --> 01:07:59,600
Speaker 1: studio is the property tax folks. And I get it

1240
01:07:59,680 --> 01:08:03,479
Speaker 1: because honestly, I'm one of them. Too. Nige's one of them.

1241
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:07,000
Speaker 1: It's still a big issue in the Indiana State House.

1242
01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:10,760
Speaker 1: I know this is a short session that is taking

1243
01:08:10,760 --> 01:08:13,920
Speaker 1: place at the State House right now, but where are

1244
01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:15,440
Speaker 1: we at on property taxes?

1245
01:08:15,480 --> 01:08:19,799
Speaker 8: So property taxes to get more of what we started,

1246
01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:23,320
Speaker 8: we won't get that until we open up the budget

1247
01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:25,439
Speaker 8: in twenty seven. The only thing we're going to get

1248
01:08:25,880 --> 01:08:30,559
Speaker 8: would be the complaining that's come from school districts, but

1249
01:08:30,680 --> 01:08:35,400
Speaker 8: local governments mostly would be to make a few technical

1250
01:08:35,720 --> 01:08:39,200
Speaker 8: adjustments and it won't change the essence of that bill.

1251
01:08:39,840 --> 01:08:42,559
Speaker 8: I know some wanted it to be reset, and that

1252
01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:44,800
Speaker 8: was never going to probably get through because you saw

1253
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:47,519
Speaker 8: how close the boat was. We ended up with two

1254
01:08:47,560 --> 01:08:51,120
Speaker 8: to spare in the Senate, but there was a lot

1255
01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:54,040
Speaker 8: in there and a lot of people thought it was confusing.

1256
01:08:54,160 --> 01:08:58,280
Speaker 8: But the simplicity of it that most overlook is in

1257
01:08:58,439 --> 01:09:03,360
Speaker 8: households regards, less of value will be fully two thirds

1258
01:09:03,360 --> 01:09:08,960
Speaker 8: of it exempted from taxation between now and thirty one,

1259
01:09:09,240 --> 01:09:11,320
Speaker 8: And if you tried to do it any quicker, you'd

1260
01:09:11,320 --> 01:09:14,320
Speaker 8: have to come up with other sources of revenue to

1261
01:09:14,479 --> 01:09:18,559
Speaker 8: fund even now, the tamp down version, of course, that's

1262
01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:25,240
Speaker 8: got local governments mostly run by Republicans still up in arms, right, So,

1263
01:09:25,760 --> 01:09:29,120
Speaker 8: and that's who the Senate was listening to.

1264
01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:31,960
Speaker 1: And if you recall, we fixed that because I feel

1265
01:09:31,960 --> 01:09:32,240
Speaker 1: like that.

1266
01:09:32,280 --> 01:09:35,000
Speaker 8: Well, you fix that in a way to where you'd

1267
01:09:35,000 --> 01:09:37,880
Speaker 8: have to get people in there more sensitive to what

1268
01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:41,280
Speaker 8: grassroots conservatives are interested in.

1269
01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:44,240
Speaker 1: And that gets you so far.

1270
01:09:44,600 --> 01:09:48,000
Speaker 8: But if you're not showing up at those school board

1271
01:09:48,040 --> 01:09:49,519
Speaker 8: meetings at the.

1272
01:09:49,439 --> 01:09:52,440
Speaker 1: County council, city council.

1273
01:09:52,439 --> 01:09:56,320
Speaker 8: And complaining, you know who is the lobbyists that represent

1274
01:09:57,320 --> 01:09:59,960
Speaker 8: school boards and local governments, right.

1275
01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:02,160
Speaker 1: Because the school boards are going to come out and say,

1276
01:10:02,400 --> 01:10:04,760
Speaker 1: you don't want little Timmy to suffer if you get

1277
01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:09,120
Speaker 1: property tax relief, and for whatever reason, that seems to work.

1278
01:10:09,320 --> 01:10:11,760
Speaker 1: All these referendums, I don't want to say all, but

1279
01:10:11,880 --> 01:10:13,599
Speaker 1: most of these. It is.

1280
01:10:13,680 --> 01:10:17,920
Speaker 8: This isn't being forgotten because twice a month now I'm

1281
01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:21,519
Speaker 8: meeting with grassroots conservatives, different groups from around the state

1282
01:10:22,080 --> 01:10:25,640
Speaker 8: that are echoing just what you're saying. But the reality

1283
01:10:25,800 --> 01:10:28,720
Speaker 8: is that's when it will have to be done. And

1284
01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:32,040
Speaker 8: then the chorus for more is going to have to

1285
01:10:32,080 --> 01:10:34,920
Speaker 8: be done in a way that you're just not complaining

1286
01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:39,320
Speaker 8: about it. Scattered across the state. You're getting into the

1287
01:10:39,360 --> 01:10:43,439
Speaker 8: council meetings because it's mostly local governments that are complaining

1288
01:10:43,479 --> 01:10:46,639
Speaker 8: the loudest currently right that they can't live with it.

1289
01:10:46,640 --> 01:10:48,880
Speaker 8: It's going to cause the end of the world in

1290
01:10:48,960 --> 01:10:52,639
Speaker 8: terms of services and so forth. But we've tamped down

1291
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:56,400
Speaker 8: what they can do. There are now lids on it.

1292
01:10:57,040 --> 01:10:59,880
Speaker 8: But it wasn't what some wanted. And I know you

1293
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:03,160
Speaker 8: got an individual hair that still is upset about it.

1294
01:11:03,200 --> 01:11:06,960
Speaker 8: And I spend less time complaining and getting ready to

1295
01:11:07,080 --> 01:11:11,240
Speaker 8: marshal the resources when the next opportunity comes along.

1296
01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:14,479
Speaker 1: Speaking with Governor Mike Brawn here on the Hammer in

1297
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:18,479
Speaker 1: Nigel Show, I want to get into the public safety

1298
01:11:18,520 --> 01:11:22,200
Speaker 1: and drug seizures statement that you put out earlier today.

1299
01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:24,640
Speaker 1: We'll get to that here in just a moment. But

1300
01:11:25,160 --> 01:11:27,040
Speaker 1: I think one of the biggest stories is what's happening

1301
01:11:27,040 --> 01:11:32,559
Speaker 1: in Minnesota with the fraud and Governor Tim Walls finally

1302
01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:35,640
Speaker 1: holding his feet to the fire up there. How do

1303
01:11:35,680 --> 01:11:38,840
Speaker 1: we note that's not taking place here in Indiana.

1304
01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:41,920
Speaker 8: Well, because we've been looking into that from the moment

1305
01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:46,519
Speaker 8: I got here. And medicaid was an alluring thing for

1306
01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:51,160
Speaker 8: many states because they said we'll even pay a higher percentage.

1307
01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:55,960
Speaker 8: But it's run so poorly. We found out there were

1308
01:11:56,120 --> 01:12:00,800
Speaker 8: like over ten thousand people on Medicaid in our state

1309
01:12:01,200 --> 01:12:03,479
Speaker 8: that should have been on Medicare. Of course, if they

1310
01:12:03,520 --> 01:12:05,559
Speaker 8: had been on Medicare, there would have been no burden

1311
01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:08,960
Speaker 8: to the state. But you get fat and sloppy when

1312
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:12,000
Speaker 8: you get all that money slushing around. A lot of

1313
01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:16,879
Speaker 8: it got woven into what we did. Like on ABA therapy,

1314
01:12:16,920 --> 01:12:20,160
Speaker 8: we had people moving to our state and that's to

1315
01:12:20,240 --> 01:12:24,880
Speaker 8: treat autism, and through Medicaid it went from almost nothing

1316
01:12:25,400 --> 01:12:29,960
Speaker 8: to millions and millions of dollars. So if you didn't

1317
01:12:29,960 --> 01:12:33,960
Speaker 8: do common sense things we were advertising to bring more

1318
01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:38,240
Speaker 8: people into a medicaid system, we found out people were

1319
01:12:38,280 --> 01:12:41,400
Speaker 8: double dipping in this state and other states.

1320
01:12:41,600 --> 01:12:43,120
Speaker 1: That's how poorly run it is.

1321
01:12:43,560 --> 01:12:45,280
Speaker 8: But in that short period of time, we got a

1322
01:12:45,280 --> 01:12:48,720
Speaker 8: guy named Mitch Robe who was here before.

1323
01:12:48,439 --> 01:12:53,160
Speaker 1: In the Daniels administration. Excellent. He's finding all of this stuff.

1324
01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:54,759
Speaker 1: I call it low hanging fruit.

1325
01:12:55,479 --> 01:12:59,840
Speaker 8: And what you had in Minnesota was something that was

1326
01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:03,879
Speaker 8: scaled to a level to where there was no interest

1327
01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:06,479
Speaker 8: in it. So we got noticed because the Wall Street

1328
01:13:06,520 --> 01:13:10,519
Speaker 8: Journal is paying attention, and we're leading the country in

1329
01:13:10,600 --> 01:13:15,280
Speaker 8: terms of doing common sense stuff on raining and medicaid,

1330
01:13:15,680 --> 01:13:18,440
Speaker 8: so it doesn't become an issue that's unsustainable.

1331
01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:23,559
Speaker 1: So when you find fraud and you find money, I

1332
01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:26,840
Speaker 1: know in Minnesota we're talking about billions of dollars taxpayers

1333
01:13:26,880 --> 01:13:29,360
Speaker 1: have been screwed out of what becomes of that money?

1334
01:13:29,439 --> 01:13:32,320
Speaker 1: What can be done with the money if it's recovered.

1335
01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:35,000
Speaker 8: Well, you're not spending as much going forward because you've

1336
01:13:35,040 --> 01:13:35,679
Speaker 8: cut it off.

1337
01:13:36,960 --> 01:13:39,360
Speaker 1: We are not finding like.

1338
01:13:39,720 --> 01:13:44,519
Speaker 8: Where you created childcare centers and you actually weren't doing anything.

1339
01:13:44,640 --> 01:13:46,680
Speaker 1: I mean you remember had the Leering.

1340
01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:51,120
Speaker 8: Center, the livering Yes, So they were so blatant that

1341
01:13:51,200 --> 01:13:54,639
Speaker 8: no one even checked that out. That's what happens when

1342
01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:57,439
Speaker 8: you run your state like the federal government is run.

1343
01:13:58,040 --> 01:14:02,360
Speaker 8: And Indiana's never been in that position. Mitch Daniels took

1344
01:14:02,360 --> 01:14:06,400
Speaker 8: over after sixteen years of Democrats and we were a

1345
01:14:06,439 --> 01:14:11,400
Speaker 8: purple red state in the red Financially, we were losing money.

1346
01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:13,000
Speaker 1: And when you I.

1347
01:14:13,000 --> 01:14:18,200
Speaker 8: Always say, have acronyms like the BMV not working Bureau

1348
01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:21,519
Speaker 8: motor vehicles, everybody's in a bad mood. That was a disaster,

1349
01:14:21,680 --> 01:14:24,879
Speaker 8: a basket case. So he turned around a lot of stuff.

1350
01:14:25,040 --> 01:14:28,400
Speaker 8: He never did get around to reorganizing state government, which

1351
01:14:28,439 --> 01:14:31,240
Speaker 8: is the biggest accomplishment we've made since we've been here.

1352
01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:35,760
Speaker 8: It's being run like a business, with entrepreneurial leaders in

1353
01:14:35,800 --> 01:14:41,200
Speaker 8: these major agencies and running these policy silos to where

1354
01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:45,040
Speaker 8: you heard recently that budget forecast that was based upon tariffs,

1355
01:14:45,080 --> 01:14:47,439
Speaker 8: which was kind of a phony thing to base a

1356
01:14:47,479 --> 01:14:53,080
Speaker 8: forecast on. We are now have recovered in real cash

1357
01:14:53,120 --> 01:14:58,160
Speaker 8: flow as you extrapolated forward the billion dollars shortages that

1358
01:14:58,200 --> 01:15:00,879
Speaker 8: we were going to have. And that's running the government

1359
01:15:01,280 --> 01:15:04,200
Speaker 8: more efficiently. You don't get credit for that. No one

1360
01:15:04,280 --> 01:15:07,919
Speaker 8: talks about it, but it's prepared us better than almost

1361
01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:08,880
Speaker 8: any other state.

1362
01:15:09,360 --> 01:15:11,479
Speaker 1: Not to mention, we're not going.

1363
01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:15,519
Speaker 8: To tolerate things hopefully won't get to ever a fraudulent level.

1364
01:15:15,520 --> 01:15:18,600
Speaker 8: That means you're not paying attention. Tim Walls had to

1365
01:15:18,600 --> 01:15:22,240
Speaker 8: be completely putting a sack over his head and letting

1366
01:15:22,280 --> 01:15:25,120
Speaker 8: that happen. And when you're talking about a state that's

1367
01:15:25,120 --> 01:15:28,120
Speaker 8: smaller than we are, that had maybe up to a

1368
01:15:28,280 --> 01:15:31,400
Speaker 8: nine billion dollar case of fraud, well you can see

1369
01:15:31,400 --> 01:15:32,760
Speaker 8: he's not running for reelection.

1370
01:15:33,360 --> 01:15:35,160
Speaker 3: Speaking with Governor Mike Braun here in the Hammer of

1371
01:15:35,240 --> 01:15:37,200
Speaker 3: Nigel Show, tell us more about the statement out of

1372
01:15:37,240 --> 01:15:39,439
Speaker 3: your office about the drug cazars and public safety. I

1373
01:15:39,520 --> 01:15:41,760
Speaker 3: saw the seven million dollars drug bus the other day.

1374
01:15:41,800 --> 01:15:44,400
Speaker 3: Do you see that seven million dollars out of a

1375
01:15:44,400 --> 01:15:48,599
Speaker 3: semi truck with being motorized, being driven by two illegal

1376
01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:51,320
Speaker 3: immigrants exactly million dollars worth of I think coke?

1377
01:15:51,479 --> 01:15:53,400
Speaker 1: Right, So we've got that run.

1378
01:15:53,640 --> 01:15:56,960
Speaker 8: The guy that runs Office of Public Safety is our

1379
01:15:57,000 --> 01:16:01,040
Speaker 8: Superintendent of State Police, Anthony Scott. And along with Anthony

1380
01:16:01,080 --> 01:16:05,439
Speaker 8: came a guy named Chris Hill, and they were highly

1381
01:16:05,479 --> 01:16:09,640
Speaker 8: supported by rank and file state police guys across some

1382
01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:13,840
Speaker 8: guys across the state. They've been doing what just wasn't

1383
01:16:13,880 --> 01:16:18,679
Speaker 8: being done before. The past administration got to give them credit.

1384
01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:23,320
Speaker 8: They got state police pay up to peer state levels.

1385
01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:28,599
Speaker 8: It's now forced local police departments and sheriffs to do.

1386
01:16:28,560 --> 01:16:29,200
Speaker 1: The same thing.

1387
01:16:29,280 --> 01:16:31,479
Speaker 8: And I'm going to be behind that good pay and

1388
01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:34,720
Speaker 8: benefits for a job that's one of the riskiest that's

1389
01:16:34,760 --> 01:16:37,320
Speaker 8: out there. We're doing all those kinds of things, and

1390
01:16:37,360 --> 01:16:42,519
Speaker 8: I'm telling them push the limit, get out there and

1391
01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:47,280
Speaker 8: where you weren't pulling over suspicious vehicles. Do so we

1392
01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:50,679
Speaker 8: saw what happened with these CDLs that were getting given

1393
01:16:50,720 --> 01:16:54,920
Speaker 8: out of a slot machine. Evidently in California, that's no good.

1394
01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:58,680
Speaker 8: But you know where they're going to come through Indiana eventually,

1395
01:16:59,080 --> 01:17:02,479
Speaker 8: because we are the crossroads of America, and we got

1396
01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:06,719
Speaker 8: more interstate miles per square mile of state of any place.

1397
01:17:07,160 --> 01:17:10,439
Speaker 8: So sixty five and sixty nine that was a highway

1398
01:17:10,520 --> 01:17:11,360
Speaker 8: for cartels.

1399
01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:12,679
Speaker 1: You even got.

1400
01:17:12,560 --> 01:17:16,559
Speaker 8: Towns like smour Seymour that have found more activity than

1401
01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:20,800
Speaker 8: what's normal. And that's because the flow has been cut

1402
01:17:20,840 --> 01:17:25,280
Speaker 8: off by President Trump on the same legislative template Biden had.

1403
01:17:25,680 --> 01:17:30,000
Speaker 8: He just put emphasis on controlling the border, and Biden said,

1404
01:17:30,120 --> 01:17:33,080
Speaker 8: come on in, we want you his voters someday. So

1405
01:17:33,600 --> 01:17:37,360
Speaker 8: that's been at least half to two thirds because the

1406
01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:40,759
Speaker 8: flow is not there. The other third is that imagine

1407
01:17:40,800 --> 01:17:43,679
Speaker 8: with all the drugs coming across, it'd be like chasing

1408
01:17:43,720 --> 01:17:45,320
Speaker 8: your tail to make a dent.

1409
01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:49,040
Speaker 3: Now, seven million dollars could be nothing to the cartels.

1410
01:17:49,400 --> 01:17:52,439
Speaker 8: Now now, since they've got so much less coming in,

1411
01:17:52,600 --> 01:17:57,080
Speaker 8: that's a lot. And we're interdicting and finding stuff now

1412
01:17:57,120 --> 01:17:59,479
Speaker 8: because it's going to be easier and it's going to

1413
01:17:59,520 --> 01:18:02,200
Speaker 8: make a bigger dan. And then when you look the

1414
01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:07,439
Speaker 8: basic measurement, when I found out that overdoses went down

1415
01:18:07,800 --> 01:18:12,599
Speaker 8: sixty percent in the year that we've been here from

1416
01:18:12,880 --> 01:18:16,720
Speaker 8: over sixteen hundred to five hundred and sixty two. What

1417
01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:19,519
Speaker 8: a measurement. It says you're doing it right. When you

1418
01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:22,840
Speaker 8: look at what we did in terms of seizing it

1419
01:18:23,000 --> 01:18:28,479
Speaker 8: was fourteen hundred pounds nearly of cocaine, eighty three pounds

1420
01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:34,040
Speaker 8: of opioids. That has been a significant disruption of the

1421
01:18:34,160 --> 01:18:37,519
Speaker 8: cartel supply chain. And we're going to keep doing it,

1422
01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:39,639
Speaker 8: and we're doing it more than any state, and we're

1423
01:18:39,640 --> 01:18:41,840
Speaker 8: in a state where we need to because so much

1424
01:18:41,840 --> 01:18:43,240
Speaker 8: of it comes through us.

1425
01:18:43,680 --> 01:18:45,880
Speaker 1: Governor, we got about a minute left here. We want

1426
01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:48,839
Speaker 1: to be respectful of your time. Folks on our YouTube

1427
01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:51,920
Speaker 1: chat want to know how's the relationship going with you

1428
01:18:51,960 --> 01:18:54,880
Speaker 1: and the Lieutenant governor twenty twenty five. I feel like

1429
01:18:55,000 --> 01:18:58,439
Speaker 1: had its ups and downs. There were a few moments

1430
01:18:58,479 --> 01:19:01,280
Speaker 1: where you probably had to say, let's pump the brakes

1431
01:19:01,280 --> 01:19:03,080
Speaker 1: a little bit on some of the stuff you're doing

1432
01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:06,479
Speaker 1: to the Lieutenant governor. How's twenty twenty six looking. So

1433
01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:08,559
Speaker 1: that is kind of fake news to begin with.

1434
01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:12,920
Speaker 8: He's got some youthful exuberance that gets out there now,

1435
01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:16,400
Speaker 8: and I've told him, don't make headlines for the wrong reason.

1436
01:19:17,080 --> 01:19:21,120
Speaker 8: But his conservative values and syncd up have been good.

1437
01:19:21,640 --> 01:19:24,720
Speaker 8: And if you're getting into the headlines, you got to

1438
01:19:24,720 --> 01:19:29,040
Speaker 8: remember mainstream media is going to contort it, blow it

1439
01:19:29,080 --> 01:19:32,040
Speaker 8: out of proportion. And our relationship is good. We're meeting

1440
01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:35,479
Speaker 8: tomorrow for a brown bag lunch at the Capitol. I

1441
01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:38,800
Speaker 8: do that with the other state leaders every month, and

1442
01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:42,800
Speaker 8: well the brown men. I actually brought some chicken and

1443
01:19:42,920 --> 01:19:46,120
Speaker 8: mushrooms that we made over the weekend and I'm going

1444
01:19:46,160 --> 01:19:49,040
Speaker 8: to eat out of it, not although I like that. Okay,

1445
01:19:49,320 --> 01:19:52,920
Speaker 8: you're not above BB and Jay's fantastic. Yeah, you know

1446
01:19:52,920 --> 01:19:55,599
Speaker 8: when I do that normally between ten and eleven o'clock

1447
01:19:55,640 --> 01:19:56,320
Speaker 8: when I shouldn't.

1448
01:19:56,360 --> 01:20:00,400
Speaker 1: There you go, Governor Mike Braun. We appreciate your time again.

1449
01:20:00,479 --> 01:20:02,519

1459
01:20:27,120 --> 01:20:29,719
Speaker 3: of a burning fireplace during the holidays?

1460
01:20:29,720 --> 01:20:30,040
Speaker 13: Hammer?

1461
01:20:30,080 --> 01:20:32,320
Speaker 1: At all? I know what you're talking about. Yeah, the

1462
01:20:32,400 --> 01:20:36,879
Speaker 1: person who posted that back in twenty sixteen has made.

1463
01:20:36,640 --> 01:20:40,439
Speaker 3: More than a million dollars from ad revenue. There's only

1464
01:20:40,479 --> 01:20:43,160
Speaker 3: three different videos on this guy's channel, and one of

1465
01:20:43,160 --> 01:20:47,160
Speaker 3: them is the Burning Fireplace one million dollars since twenty sixteen,

Speaker 3: fifty seven million views. Are you okay with him getting

1468
01:20:53,840 --> 01:20:58,240
Speaker 3: a million dollars the head revenue for the Burning Fireplace video?

1469
01:20:58,439 --> 01:21:01,599
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm not going to be a Hey. People love

1470
01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:05,240
Speaker 1: a good yule log. They love that cozy feeling at

1471
01:21:05,280 --> 01:21:08,800
Speaker 1: Christmas time, and this guy put like one of the

1472
01:21:08,840 --> 01:21:12,639
Speaker 1: first ones out there, so people go onto YouTube. Maybe

1473
01:21:12,640 --> 01:21:15,439
Speaker 1: they don't have a fireplace of their own. And Christmas

1474
01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:19,200
Speaker 1: morning they're opening up presents, they're having mimosas, and this

1475
01:21:19,320 --> 01:21:23,000
Speaker 1: dude's video that he just looped has made him a

1476
01:21:23,120 --> 01:21:26,960

1477
01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:29,960
Speaker 1: the greatest country in the world. When Vana White, Yes,

1480
01:21:37,640 --> 01:21:41,400
Speaker 1: And this guy can be a millionaire because he made

1481
01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:44,280
Speaker 1: a yule log video and it went viral. I don't

1482
01:21:44,320 --> 01:21:45,560
Speaker 1: mean a log. I don't have a lug in the

1483
01:21:45,600 --> 01:21:47,120
Speaker 1: sense what you think I have a log. I don't

1484
01:21:47,120 --> 01:21:51,400
Speaker 1: have a lug. It's getting hot in here. An animal,

1485
01:21:53,040 --> 01:21:54,280
Speaker 1: Which do you want to do? Do you want to

1486
01:21:54,320 --> 01:21:57,479
Speaker 1: do this? Do the animal? Okay? The animal rescuer in Maryland.

1487
01:21:57,840 --> 01:21:59,439
Speaker 1: Her name is Amy. She's in the news.

1488
01:22:02,320 --> 01:22:05,479
Speaker 3: She's in the news. After a few more Amazon boxes

1489
01:22:05,520 --> 01:22:08,439
Speaker 3: than expected showed up at her doorstep last month, she

1490
01:22:08,479 --> 01:22:11,320
Speaker 3: went on social media asked people to donate food, like

1491
01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:15,080
Speaker 3: pet supplies, that kind of stuff for like animal shelters.

1492
01:22:15,400 --> 01:22:17,680
Speaker 3: The internet came through in a big way with thousands

1493
01:22:17,720 --> 01:22:21,719
Speaker 3: of boxes on her front doorstep. Here's Amy talking about

1494
01:22:21,720 --> 01:22:23,120
Speaker 3: this massive delivery.

1495
01:22:23,760 --> 01:22:27,120
Speaker 17: He said, you need to come home right now, he said,

1496
01:22:27,360 --> 01:22:31,000
Speaker 17: Amazon delivery. I said that happens all the time. He said, no, No,

1497
01:22:31,120 --> 01:22:33,280
Speaker 17: I don't think you understand. You need to come home

1498
01:22:33,880 --> 01:22:37,400
Speaker 17: right now. It was dog food and treats and toys

1499
01:22:37,479 --> 01:22:40,639
Speaker 17: and beds and anything you can imagine for dogs.

1500
01:22:40,680 --> 01:22:42,439
Speaker 1: We were totally blown away.

1501
01:22:42,960 --> 01:22:45,320
Speaker 3: That's what happens sometimes when you deal in social media.

1502
01:22:45,360 --> 01:22:46,120
Speaker 3: Are you okay with this?

1503
01:22:46,479 --> 01:22:50,480
Speaker 1: Yes? I love this Because to a much smaller scale,

1504
01:22:50,720 --> 01:22:52,720
Speaker 1: We kind of did this at Christmas time here on

1505
01:22:52,760 --> 01:22:54,920
Speaker 1: the Hammer and Nigel Show. We were part of a

1506
01:22:54,960 --> 01:22:57,719
Speaker 1: toy drive and it was kind of a last minute deal,

1507
01:22:58,120 --> 01:23:01,240
Speaker 1: but our bosses were like, hey, we want all of

1508
01:23:01,240 --> 01:23:04,880
Speaker 1: the afternoon shows to compete in a toy drive contest

1509
01:23:05,160 --> 01:23:07,559
Speaker 1: two weeks. Whoever, can you know bring in the most

1510
01:23:07,640 --> 01:23:10,559
Speaker 1: toys for tots You'll be declared the winner. So we

1511
01:23:10,640 --> 01:23:13,320
Speaker 1: reached out to you guys, the awesome listeners, and you

1512
01:23:13,360 --> 01:23:17,080
Speaker 1: guys were sitting Amazon packages to the station and saying, hey,

1513
01:23:17,439 --> 01:23:20,200
Speaker 1: you leave here, we'll do it. We'll drop it off.

1514
01:23:20,520 --> 01:23:23,360
Speaker 1: And uh, we won the contest. We get bragging rights,

1515
01:23:23,479 --> 01:23:26,320
Speaker 1: but that's all we wanted. We wanted to raise the

1516
01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:29,400
Speaker 1: most and beat the other stations. So I get it.

1517
01:23:29,520 --> 01:23:31,599
Speaker 1: I kind of love when this kind of stuff happens.

1518
01:23:32,040 --> 01:23:35,599
Speaker 1: It's proof that not everybody is an a hole out

1519
01:23:35,640 --> 01:23:39,320
Speaker 1: there on social media, especially right, because sometimes you need

1520
01:23:39,320 --> 01:23:44,800
Speaker 1: that proof that not everybody is an a hole. Hey,

1521
01:23:45,040 --> 01:23:47,200
Speaker 1: let me run one by you here, because this just

1522
01:23:47,280 --> 01:23:51,679
Speaker 1: came down. So remember the other day when Carl ursa

1523
01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:55,519
Speaker 1: of the Colts, said, Stike in the head coach, he's

1524
01:23:55,560 --> 01:23:59,920
Speaker 1: coming back, Ballard, He's coming back. And I said are

1525
01:24:00,200 --> 01:24:02,599
Speaker 1: a little too soon with this, because what if there's

1526
01:24:02,640 --> 01:24:06,479
Speaker 1: a coach that becomes available that you'd really like, Not

1527
01:24:06,600 --> 01:24:09,080
Speaker 1: that he would maybe want to come to Indy, but

1528
01:24:09,439 --> 01:24:13,519
Speaker 1: maybe we hold off. The Ravens have announced that John

1529
01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:17,880
Speaker 1: Harball is out as their Oh wow, And this is

1530
01:24:17,920 --> 01:24:20,839
Speaker 1: what I was talking about, wow, because I thought, whoever

1531
01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:23,479
Speaker 1: would lose that Steelers in a Ravens game, they might

1532
01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:26,160
Speaker 1: part ways with their coach because they've each been there

1533
01:24:26,200 --> 01:24:28,559
Speaker 1: for a long time. I'm for a change. Might be

1534
01:24:28,640 --> 01:24:32,680
Speaker 1: time for a change. John Harball now available, but the

1535
01:24:32,680 --> 01:24:35,320
Speaker 1: Colts have already said we're bringing back the guy that

1536
01:24:35,400 --> 01:24:38,080
Speaker 1: botches the coin toss. But that was my point though.

1537
01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:40,360
Speaker 1: The whole thing, is there anybody out there she would

1538
01:24:40,360 --> 01:24:43,000
Speaker 1: have gotten rid of Ballard and Steichen? Is there anybody

1539
01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:45,720
Speaker 1: out there worth a dam who would have wanted to

1540
01:24:45,760 --> 01:24:49,040
Speaker 1: come here? Any A plus any A players was the question,

1541
01:24:49,520 --> 01:24:52,439
Speaker 1: and up until now I don't think there was, so,

1542
01:24:52,800 --> 01:24:55,040
Speaker 1: you know, I think she was going on what happened

1543
01:24:55,080 --> 01:24:57,840
Speaker 1: the first half of the season. Carl Ursey was right.

1544
01:24:57,920 --> 01:24:59,920
Speaker 1: I mean, she made the decision based off the.

1545
01:25:00,320 --> 01:25:04,960
Speaker 3: Half of the cold season before things just when Haywire.

1546
01:25:04,840 --> 01:25:07,599
Speaker 1: And if you're John Harball you can be selective here

1547
01:25:07,600 --> 01:25:11,800
Speaker 1: because everybody's gonna want you. You could take the Las

1548
01:25:11,880 --> 01:25:15,040
Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders job that opened up. You could live in Vegas,

1549
01:25:15,080 --> 01:25:17,880
Speaker 1: which isn't the worst thing in the world. Mendoza. You're

1550
01:25:17,920 --> 01:25:20,759
Speaker 1: probably gonna get Mendoza with the number one pick. Tom

1551
01:25:20,800 --> 01:25:22,920
Speaker 1: Brady is your owner. He said he's willing to spend

1552
01:25:22,920 --> 01:25:25,760
Speaker 1: a little money. Now, that's not a bad place to be.

1553
01:25:26,479 --> 01:25:29,320
Speaker 1: Or you do TV for about a year, you do

1554
01:25:29,400 --> 01:25:33,000
Speaker 1: the analyst thing, and then maybe the Dallas Cowboys open,

1555
01:25:33,120 --> 01:25:35,439
Speaker 1: or the Miami Dolphins open, or you know, one of

1556
01:25:35,479 --> 01:25:39,160
Speaker 1: these heritage jobs open up. I don't think Harball was

1557
01:25:39,200 --> 01:25:41,160
Speaker 1: going to be in any rush now to come to

1558
01:25:41,200 --> 01:25:45,439
Speaker 1: Indianapolis now, especially no first round draft picks for the

1559
01:25:45,439 --> 01:25:48,000
Speaker 1: first couple of years, for the next couple of years,

1560
01:25:48,040 --> 01:25:50,559
Speaker 1: I should say, right, sorry, I just wanted to get

1561
01:25:50,560 --> 01:25:52,320
Speaker 1: that out there. I thought that was interesting and the

1562
01:25:52,400 --> 01:25:54,480
Speaker 1: timing ah just frustrating.

1563
01:25:55,280 --> 01:26:03,479
Speaker 3: I'd start drinking handful of the Hammer and Nigel Show IVC. Yeah,

1564
01:26:03,640 --> 01:26:06,240
Speaker 3: make sure and me to down at coaches Tavern this Friday.

1565
01:26:06,280 --> 01:26:09,360
Speaker 3: Little tailgate party had them before the IU Oregon College

1566
01:26:09,400 --> 01:26:13,120
Speaker 3: Football Championship. The Peach Bowl correct down in Atlanta, that's right,

Speaker 1: in the office and he was buddies with you know,

1595
01:28:09,120 --> 01:28:13,320
Speaker 1: Boss hog set That's what happens when nerds get popular

1596
01:28:13,400 --> 01:28:15,680
Speaker 1: for the first time. They don't know how to handle it.

1597
01:28:15,880 --> 01:28:17,640
Speaker 1: And he was one of those guys. I mean, you

1598
01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:19,720
Speaker 1: look at him, he's a total nerd. He looks like

1599
01:28:19,840 --> 01:28:23,680
Speaker 1: Michael Gross from a family ties to Dad, like a

1600
01:28:23,720 --> 01:28:26,760
Speaker 1: younger version. He looks like an antirex at Kenney Loggins.

1601
01:28:26,920 --> 01:28:29,240
Speaker 1: And he thought because he was getting tail in the office,

1602
01:28:29,280 --> 01:28:31,800
Speaker 1: he was Johnny cool guide and tried to troll us.

1603
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:35,320
Speaker 1: Nothing brings joy to my cold dark heart than that

1604
01:28:35,360 --> 01:28:38,840
Speaker 1: little needle wiener being in trouble. Oh it's Chef's kiss.

1605
01:28:39,000 --> 01:28:40,760
Speaker 1: Let me so good. Let me just read real quick

1606
01:28:40,800 --> 01:28:43,120
Speaker 1: about Thomas Carl Cook. This is from the Indie Star.

1607
01:28:43,200 --> 01:28:45,960
Speaker 1: The full scope of granjury investigation is unclear, but the

1608
01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:48,840
Speaker 1: Star investigation found the Cook hog Set's former right hand

1609
01:28:48,840 --> 01:28:51,920
Speaker 1: man cashed in on his ties with hog Set by

1610
01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:54,599
Speaker 1: getting a job at a prominent downtown law firm after

1611
01:28:54,640 --> 01:28:58,280
Speaker 1: his departure from the city and then helping high profile

1612
01:28:58,439 --> 01:29:02,840
Speaker 1: developer clients score millions of dollars worth of city investments

1613
01:29:03,280 --> 01:29:07,639
Speaker 1: from the hog Set administration. Some of those clients happen

1614
01:29:07,720 --> 01:29:10,360
Speaker 1: to be donors to hog Sets campaigns. You don't say

1615
01:29:10,560 --> 01:29:11,599
Speaker 1: port from the Indie Star.

1616
01:29:11,680 --> 01:29:15,280
Speaker 3: Now at grand Jury is investigating that along with the

1617
01:29:15,280 --> 01:29:20,920
Speaker 3: inappropriate behavior and the sexual misconduct accusations as well.

1618
01:29:20,960 --> 01:29:25,400
Speaker 1: And it's interesting that you've got a very left leaning

1619
01:29:25,720 --> 01:29:31,479
Speaker 1: liberal prosecutor going after hog Sets buddy, because even though

1620
01:29:31,640 --> 01:29:34,840
Speaker 1: hawk Sets are super lefty and so is Mears, they're

1621
01:29:34,880 --> 01:29:38,519
Speaker 1: not friends. Howk Set did not want Ryan Mehers in

1622
01:29:38,560 --> 01:29:41,840
Speaker 1: that position. Mears does not like Joe hogg Set like

1623
01:29:41,920 --> 01:29:44,400
Speaker 1: for me. This is like when the White Sox play

1624
01:29:44,439 --> 01:29:47,479
Speaker 1: the Cardinals. I hate both of you guys. Both of

1625
01:29:47,520 --> 01:29:48,479
Speaker 1: you guys are turns.

1626
01:29:49,240 --> 01:29:49,479
Speaker 5: Hey.

1627
01:29:50,040 --> 01:29:52,719
Speaker 1: I want to get your thoughts on this. Nige liberal

1628
01:29:52,760 --> 01:29:59,160
Speaker 1: comedian former Fattie Amy Schumer cryon Chuck's niece. She's lost

1629
01:29:59,200 --> 01:30:01,320
Speaker 1: a ton of weight. Look's pretty cool.

1630
01:30:01,320 --> 01:30:03,200
Speaker 3: Oh wow, yeah, I'm looking at her a bikini right

1631
01:30:03,200 --> 01:30:04,280
Speaker 3: now on our Instagram.

01:30:04,320 --> 01:30:08,080
Speaker 1: Sure, whoa, So she's putting out bikini pictures now on Instagram. Now.

1633
01:30:08,120 --> 01:30:10,400
Speaker 1: The reason I want to get your opinion is that

1634
01:30:10,840 --> 01:30:15,200
Speaker 1: people like us, red blooded American men, for like three

1635
01:30:15,200 --> 01:30:18,880
Speaker 1: to four year span, we were called pigs and scumbags

1636
01:30:18,960 --> 01:30:21,719
Speaker 1: if we didn't say three hundred pounds Lizzo was hot,

1637
01:30:22,000 --> 01:30:24,040
Speaker 1: if we didn't want some dude in a dress on

1638
01:30:24,080 --> 01:30:27,879
Speaker 1: the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover, and people like Amy Schumer

1639
01:30:28,000 --> 01:30:31,519
Speaker 1: would give us lectures. And now that Lizzo's lost a

1640
01:30:31,520 --> 01:30:34,000
Speaker 1: bunch of weight, Amy Schumer's lost a bunch of weight,

1641
01:30:34,120 --> 01:30:36,920
Speaker 1: they're putting bikini pictures out there all of a sudden.

1642
01:30:36,920 --> 01:30:39,400
Speaker 1: Do we not love fatties like we used to? Are

1643
01:30:39,400 --> 01:30:42,320
Speaker 1: we allowed to? Are we allowed to comment on the

1644
01:30:42,760 --> 01:30:48,160
Speaker 1: stature and the appearance of said Instagram photos. I was

1645
01:30:48,200 --> 01:30:52,080
Speaker 1: told that you have to love and respect big hogs

1646
01:30:52,240 --> 01:30:54,799
Speaker 1: if they're in swimsuits on the cover of the Sports

1647
01:30:54,840 --> 01:30:58,719
Speaker 1: Illustrated Swimsuit issue. But the minute they got a chance

1648
01:30:58,760 --> 01:31:01,800
Speaker 1: to lose the weight, here comes the ozempic, Here comes
