Earlier in the show, we touched against 10 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: the scandal that will not die in the Trump administration, 11 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 1: and part of the reason is because Donald Trump himself 12 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: continues to keep it alive with incredibly unwise statements. I'm 13 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:40,239 Speaker 1: referring to the Epstein files and the Epstein case more broadly. 14 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 1: The latest drop this week on Tuesday. According to the 15 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 1: President himself, the genesis between the falling out between himself 16 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 1: and Jeffrey Epstein was caused by Epstein poaching employees, potentially 17 00:00:54,960 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: young girls from mar Alago, and this was reported by five. 18 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 2: Epstein has a certain reputation obviously, which is curious. Were 19 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 2: some of the workers that were taken from you? 20 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,320 Speaker 3: Were some of them young women with some of them, 21 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 3: some of them young women. 22 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 4: Well I don't want to say, but everyone knows the 23 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 4: people that would take it, and it was the concept 24 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 4: of taking people that work for me as man. But 25 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 4: that story has been pretty well out there and the 26 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 4: answer is yes, they were yah. 27 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, in the spot, the small young people who work 28 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 3: in the spa, a great spat, one of the best 29 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 3: spaws in the world at Marlaw, and people would take 30 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 3: it out of the spot, hired by. 31 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 4: Him, in other words, gone, and other people would come 32 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 4: and go play. This guy is taking people from the spot. 33 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 2: I didn't know that. And then when I heard about it, 34 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: I told him him. 35 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 4: I said, listen, we don't want you're taking our people, 36 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 4: whether it was SPA or not SPA, I don't want 37 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:54,559 Speaker 4: to take it people. 38 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 2: And he was fined. 39 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 4: And then not too long after that he did it 40 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 4: again and I said, out of here, I was stolen. 41 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 2: You know, Virginia Jeffrey, I don't know. I think you 42 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,519 Speaker 2: worked at the spot. I think so. 43 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 5: I think that was one of the new pions. 44 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 2: He's told her. 45 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 4: And by the way, she had no complaints about us, 46 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 4: as you know, done whatsoever. 47 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 2: Yes, I was on the Sex Island, but only for 48 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 2: the snorkeling. 49 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,239 Speaker 5: I didn't know anything about the kids stuff. 50 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 2: Look, ninety percent of what went on down there was 51 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 2: not pedophilia. Oh yeah, no, the other five percent, that's 52 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 2: Sully the whole operation. Yeah, I sure did. 53 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: So we now have here to have more ties between 54 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump. And he actually walked himself 55 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: out of a denial on into admission in the course 56 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: of about twenty seconds there, saying that you know, it 57 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: was Virginia Guffrey one of the individuals that was scalped 58 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 1: by Jeffrey Epstein off the mar A Lago. Oh no, 59 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: well maybe, actually I think you're right. She was one 60 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: of them, and she never had any complaints about us. 61 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 2: But he stole her. But he's like she was property, 62 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,679 Speaker 2: so Ethan, just so I have got this right. So 63 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein and Giselle Maxwell, they get arrested and then 64 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein ends up dead in jail, and allegedly there 65 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: are Epstein files, and lots of people have been beating 66 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 2: the drum of release the files, and Trump was even 67 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 2: at one time one of the people saying release the files. 68 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 2: And he gets elected, he says, we're going to release 69 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 2: the files, and they released teaser files to certain influencers, 70 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 2: and then now it's a hoax, and now all of 71 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 2: a sudden, there were never any files and there are 72 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 2: never any names. However, I know that Bill Clinton was there, 73 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 2: what twenty four, twenty eight times. It's like, well, how 74 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 2: would you know that if there were no files, sir? 75 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 2: And I then it was Trump saying well, I didn't 76 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 2: really know Jeffrey Epstein. Well, I mean I hung around 77 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 2: other than a few times, but he invited me to 78 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 2: the island, but I never went. He was stealing my employees. 79 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 2: And it's like what, and again, how does somebody steal 80 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 2: your employee? I mean, they can recruit them. But stealing 81 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 2: is a very weird, weird word. Yeah, it's a it's 82 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 2: a very possessive term. It is a possessive term. Yeah. 83 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: And the number of connections between these two individuals is troubling, 84 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 1: I would say, especially when you have now Donald Trump 85 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: being incredibly reluctant to disclose the Epstein files and attempts 86 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: to be burying under you know, any by any means possible, 87 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: this story, attempting to distract, you know, threatening to indict 88 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: Barack Obama, indict Hillary Clinton give give out twenty five 89 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 1: hundred dollars rebate checks to the American people, and then 90 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: he keeps making these curious remarks about past association between himself, 91 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein, and employees who came out of mar A 92 00:04:55,279 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: Lago speculatively who probably did not fare well on under 93 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: association with Jeffrey Epstein afterwards. 94 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 2: So now, Ethan, I know that this is probably just 95 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 2: a crazy notion and this could not possibly be true. 96 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 2: But is it possible that maybe there were a lot 97 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 2: of key Democrats that were on the list that they 98 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 2: knew about when they're like, we're going to release the list, 99 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 2: We're going to release the list, and then all of 100 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 2: a sudden they see the list and like, oh my gosh, 101 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 2: there's a bunch of people in our circle, maybe even 102 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 2: the big guy that's on the list, And now the 103 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 2: list doesn't exist. Judge, that is very conspiratorial, I know, 104 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 2: But is it possible. 105 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: I think it's possible, and I think the conclusion is 106 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: entirely reasonable based on the reaction from both sides of 107 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: the isle. And of course you've got Democrats who are 108 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 1: attempting to drum up sympathy, and you know say that 109 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: the files should be released, but then they're holding votes 110 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: against releasing the files, just like the Republicans. So I 111 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,279 Speaker 1: think both parties have dirty hands here. 112 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 2: Yes, well, and I know Giselle Maxwell. They want her 113 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 2: to testify, and she is holding out for like a 114 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 2: sweetheart deal where she gets nothing. I would almost say 115 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 2: give it to her. I want to hear what she 116 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 2: has to say. 117 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: Well that, of course, it's also entirely possible that she 118 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 1: could be suicided, just like Jeffrey Epstein. 119 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 2: She needs to put out one of those statements that 120 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 2: says I am not suicidal. 121 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 1: Here's some curious, curious testimony that was recently re released 122 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: to the public dating back to March of twenty ten, 123 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: when Jeffrey Epstein was under a civil lawsuit and attempting 124 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: to defend himself from these accusations, and during the deposition, 125 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: Donald Trump was brought up. 126 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 2: Have you ever had a personal relationship with Donald Trump? 127 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 6: What do you mean the closer relationships? 128 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: Have you socialized with him? 129 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 3: Yes? 130 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 2: Yes, yes? Have you ever socialized with Donald Trump in 131 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 2: the presence. 132 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: Of females under the age of eighteen? 133 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 2: Though, I'd like to answer that question at least today 134 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 2: I'm going to have to sert my fifth, sixth and 135 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 2: fourteenth amendbergrdser. 136 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 7: Curious and curious. 137 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: What is a reasonable person supposed to conclude when they 138 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: hear statements like that? And of course he didn't provide 139 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: any clarity, asserted his fifth Amendment right, But that leaves 140 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: the mind to wander exactly what level of association he 141 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: had and what context of behavior was going on When 142 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: we know the incredibly ceddy, shady things that were happening 143 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: on pedophile Island. Ethan, we're not supposed to We're not 144 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: supposed to ask these We're not supposed to ask these 145 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: questions or come up with any conclusions of our own. 146 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: You're supposed to take what they tell you as strict 147 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: fact and not venture off in any other direction. And 148 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: I don't care which party participated in potentially pedophilic acts. 149 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: It's not a partisan issue. 150 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: No, it is about the victims. 151 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 1: See, victims need prioritized most of all, especially because this 152 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: appears to be the largest sex trafficking scandal to ever 153 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: unfold in American history, and the idea that the door 154 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: can be closed and the books be shut without any 155 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: resolution is frankly unacceptable. 156 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 2: I would agree. It's I don't know. I just find 157 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 2: it fascinating that there's not that there's not more people 158 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 2: and more news outlets that are hammering this saying, wait 159 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 2: a second, this does not add up. How can you 160 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 2: say that we've got filed, we've got files, we've got files, 161 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 2: and now we don't have files. 162 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: That's a good question, Brad. And there's so many questions 163 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: that are surrounding this. 164 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 2: It would seem to imply. 165 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: A large network preponderance of individuals who are participating in 166 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:49,839 Speaker 1: this gross activity that now find themselves under pressure and 167 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: have motivation to keep all this information hidden that I mean, 168 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: we don't know because there's no transparency surrounding this, and 169 00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: that's the most troubling aspect. 170 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 2: Right exactly. And now they've backed themselves into a corner 171 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 2: where they're trying to prove a negative. If there were 172 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 2: no files, that's great, But you've been saying for so 173 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 2: long that there's files that you're going to release that 174 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 2: now in everybody's minds, these files exist. 175 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: And Donald Trump is the one who stirred the fire, 176 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 1: fan the flames and demanded accountability, and he should have 177 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:20,959 Speaker 1: to live up to that expectation. 178 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 2: So yes, most people would say that he's backed himself 179 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 2: into a corner. Although it's Donald Trump and he seems 180 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,119 Speaker 2: to manage to get out from these situations. 181 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: Well, Teflon don it seems like this one might actually stick. 182 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to ninety three WIBC.

He's coming on to discuss the plausibility or 187 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: possibility of this astronomer CEO, who is now threatening to 188 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: sue Coldplay for publishing his image and disclosing the affair 189 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: between himself and the HR staffer. Whether or not that 190 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,559 Speaker 1: comes to fruition, who knows, but we'll get Abdul's legal 191 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: insights coming up next.

And apparently this according to reports, because 205 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: official filings have not come forth yet, the astronomer CEO 206 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: is contemplating suing Coldplay for publishing and. 207 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 5: Byron, yeah, Andy, Byron Guy. I looked at his horoscope today. 208 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 5: Here's what it says. Visibility is high. Unfortunately, so as 209 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 5: a resolution, you're lucky to find yourself on camera, on blasts, 210 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 5: on an administrative leave. Cetter warrens, when your kids, when 211 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 5: you're when your kis hits the camp, don't let your 212 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 5: lawyer hit sin. 213 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 2: Now tell me if I'm wrong me as a legal layman, 214 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 2: I would think that anytime I venture out in the public, 215 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 2: especially a very large concert like Coldplay, I have zero 216 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 2: expectation of privacy. 217 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:31,839 Speaker 5: You are correct, sir, Give bad man a cigar? 218 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 2: All right, Here we go, Here we go. I too 219 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 2: could be a lawyer. 220 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 1: Well, not only is the expectation of privacy neil, because 221 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: that's implied when you go to a public location. It's 222 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: also explicitly printed on the tickets. 223 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,719 Speaker 5: YEP says you may appear on camera and it may 224 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 5: go viral, so deal with it. 225 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: Yes, so you know you do. You do not have 226 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: the freedom from the JumboTron. If you're going to attend 227 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 1: one of these large events and if you don't want 228 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 1: your image published for whatever reason, then maybe you. 229 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 2: Should just avoid it. 230 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: The funny thing is that I keep circling back to 231 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: is they could have avoided this whole thing if they 232 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: just acted normal, because nobody would have given a damn. 233 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 2: Now, nobody would have recognized him and nothing would have happened. Well, 234 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 2: like even if you're an. 235 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 5: Impole, and by the way, here are a couple of things 236 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 5: to think about to and all this. They didn't. It 237 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 5: wasn't done as fact. They wasn't saying they're having a 238 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 5: fair just shy. 239 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 2: It was. It was just saculation. It was just a joke. 240 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 5: And number two, tu shall always be defense against liable. 241 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 5: So if they're not having an affair, then he's got 242 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 5: to go to court to show he's not having an affair. 243 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, discovery can pretty damage you. 244 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, so why we'll get up with the other ten 245 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 5: minutes while we're here. 246 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:42,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, even more fascinating this In this case, didn't 247 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,719 Speaker 2: Astronomer hire Chris Martin from Coldplay's ex wife with a 248 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:48,719 Speaker 2: pultrow to be their spokesperson on this? 249 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 5: Yes, it like some candle trick thing. 250 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 2: I'm trying to figure out. Was this a setup? I 251 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 2: mean again, I don't want to say that there's conspiracies everywhere. However, 252 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 2: this is amusing to say the least, but I feel 253 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 2: like it's almost orchestrated the way this is played. I 254 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 2: don't think it was a setup. 255 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: I think they have a very astute meteor rep and 256 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 1: they're taking advantage of earned attention well and the other 257 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:13,839 Speaker 1: in a humorous way. 258 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,479 Speaker 5: And also, gotta be right, cold Play didn't fire him. 259 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 5: Coldplay did not fire Astronomer fired him. Right, So if 260 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,839 Speaker 5: you old board thinks your liability, then it's not Chris 261 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 5: Martin's fault, right. 262 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 2: That's exactly right. 263 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: Well, he supposedly stepped down. Of course you wonder whether 264 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 1: he was pressured to or not. But but if look 265 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 1: like I think we all agree that going after Coldplay 266 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: would be a bad move. It'd be pretty much dead 267 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: on arrival. But if he was gonna sue anybody, And 268 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: again it's still. 269 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 2: Probably a bad move. 270 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: But wouldn't you sue astronomer like you said for wrong 271 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 1: full termination? If you're gonna go after anybody, go after 272 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: the company that you left from, not Coldplay. 273 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 5: Well if you got if you, if you look like this, 274 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 5: if you look at your least greatest chance of losing, 275 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 5: that's probably the way to go there. 276 00:13:58,160 --> 00:13:59,959 Speaker 2: I like the way you phrased it. 277 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 5: Yes, exactly right, Like Okay, so you can't see cold 278 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 5: Play because they were just there. You're at a concert 279 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 5: and resblecipitation privates and they tell you on the ticket 280 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 5: that your image may be used. They tell you this 281 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 5: at Nicky Blainez. When you come down here, you may 282 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 5: be using camera footage. It's right there on the on 283 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 5: the door when you walk in it. This isn't hard 284 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 5: to feel. 285 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: I've been to Nicky Blaine's a number of times and 286 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: I've never noticed that on the door. I'm gonna have 287 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 1: to look for that now. 288 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 5: It's by the men's room. 289 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, so, which I think is funny.

I was 296 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 2: at a parade up in Whiting, Indiana on Friday. Progi 297 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 2: Fest was going on, and in that parade they had 298 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 2: an entry that it said cold Play Photo Booth, and 299 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 2: it was these two people pushing this thing around on 300 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 2: wheels and then they kept ducking down out of the 301 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 2: frame of the photo booth. It was hilarious. 302 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 5: That's how you do. That's how a popular culture.

I'd be out of 334 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 5: a job I back to, I'd be out of all 335 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 5: my jobs. 336 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 1: So the reason why I wanted to have you on 337 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: this segment, Abduel, is because you know a thing or 338 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: two about defamation. And walking through the defamation process. 339 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 5: Actually that was just working on that when you guys 340 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 5: called me today amazic. 341 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: So so for the uninitiated, and of course we know 342 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: that uh, the astronomer CEO Andy Byron doesn't stand a 343 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 1: snowball's chance in Ecuador of winning this thing. But walk 344 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: us through what a successful defamation claim would actually look 345 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: like and what facts do you actually have to prove 346 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: in order to make that successful. 347 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 5: Well, they're basically two types of defamation, technically four types. 348 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 5: So there's regular definite, which I say something bad about you, 349 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 5: it's published, it's communicated to a third party, you suffer 350 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 5: damages or an injury. And then this was called defamation 351 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,919 Speaker 5: per se, where I accuse you of a crime. And 352 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 5: then once I accused of a crime, then a whole 353 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 5: other set of things fall into play. Now with that said, 354 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 5: there's also what's called defamation for regular people say you 355 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 5: know Kevin over there or and then there's definition of 356 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 5: people like me, who's more of a public type figure. 357 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 5: For a public figure, I gotta have a little bit. 358 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 5: I have a little bit. I have a little bit 359 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 5: extra special sauce in a nutshell. And so let's say 360 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 5: if somebody says, Abdul's an ass well, which my wife 361 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 5: calls me every morning when I wake up. That's not defamation. 362 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 5: That's probably fact of life. However, Abdul's an ass who's 363 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:45,360 Speaker 5: a pedophile and child rapist. That's defamation per se, and 364 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 5: that gets you in trouble, and that gets somebody a 365 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 5: four hundred thousand dollars settlement. 366 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 2: He's on the market selling right now. But then I 367 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 2: feel like you can't even walk to lunch with Abdul 368 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 2: without somebody defaming him on the sidewalk. It seems that 369 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:56,400 Speaker 2: way these days. 370 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 5: And then I just get its a chain, Okay, yeah, exactly. 371 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 2: Cant I get your name and an address? Yeah? 372 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 5: I just asked mister David Waters and Jeremiarh toevobo. 373 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 1: So you mentioned limited liability from a public figure. Now, 374 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: since Andy Byron is a CEO, would he qualify for that? 375 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,640 Speaker 1: Is he, you know, a pseudo public figure by proxy 376 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:13,400 Speaker 1: of his position? 377 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 5: He could be sort of I was called a limited 378 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 5: purpose public figure. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, the exact 379 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 5: sort of that halfway between you're your sort of famous 380 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 5: but not necessarily infamous and the like, Yeah, exactly, who's 381 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 5: that Andy guy? Yeah, that's that's him. 382 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 2: That's my neighbor. He's CEO of some company. Yeah. 383 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 5: But see, but I think is have they not done anything, 384 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 5: nobody would probably knew who they were. 385 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 2: No period. 386 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,919 Speaker 1: Well that's the thing because like I, I know that 387 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: the MS building is owned and operated by Jeff Simulian, 388 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 1: but I would not be able to pick Jeff Simulian 389 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,639 Speaker 1: up out of a lineup. So if we're both at 390 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: a sports game and they put Jeff Smullian up on 391 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: the JumboTron and he's doing something untoward, I would no, 392 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: as long as he acts normal, nobody, nobody would. 393 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 2: Nobody bat an eye, right, Yeah, that's just it. I mean, 394 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,880 Speaker 2: I'm sure that this dude probably told his wife. He's like, yeah, 395 00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 2: we're having this work function, we're going to a concert. 396 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 2: I'll be home afterwards, and you know, so it would 397 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 2: not have been unreasonable for him to be in a 398 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 2: camera shot with this woman. But it's how they reacted. Yeah, 399 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 2: he had his arms around her. That's that's I. 400 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 5: Would much rather deal with that defamation than do with 401 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 5: my wife that way. You think you're in trouble, now, 402 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 5: you ain't seen nothing. It's like it's like perfect thing. 403 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 5: I know, you guys are short on time. When my 404 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 5: little were growing up on a military effort military base, 405 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:25,719 Speaker 5: my little brothers would kcsually get in trouble and they 406 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,439 Speaker 5: get picked up by the MPs, and so the MP's like, hey, 407 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:30,919 Speaker 5: we're going to call your parents. Like, no, just leave 408 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:32,919 Speaker 5: me down here. I'm safer in jail right now than 409 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:34,679 Speaker 5: when my father gets gets a hold of me. 410 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 2: And that's what this is. 411 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,120 Speaker 5: Like, You're probably just safe for dealing with the defamation 412 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 5: than all the all the stuff that's coming later. 413 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 2: Well, it went viral so fast. So, like I said, 414 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,439 Speaker 2: that was Thursday night was when that concert happened. Casey 415 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 2: I know was talking about him on this show on 416 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 2: Friday morning. So you know, in twelve hours, less than 417 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 2: twelve hours, that thing went from Boston I think is 418 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 2: where it happened to we're talking about it in Indie. 419 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 2: I mean, it was everywhere. It's like a virus, exactly. 420 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 1: A social media virus. Hey, Abduell, we got about forty 421 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 1: seconds to go.

I 447 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:24,880 Speaker 1: love going to the State Fair. 448 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 2: What say you? I would agree? Which I like a 449 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 2: good festival. I like a good party to a parogi fest. 450 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,439 Speaker 2: Pro That's why I was in I was in Whiting 451 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 2: for parogi fests last Friday. Help tell people what a 452 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 2: parogi is. Because I actually was introduced to parogis by 453 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,120 Speaker 2: my Pennsylvania friend a couple of years ago. 454 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 1: I've never had a parogi before. So progis are typically 455 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 1: a pole. It's like a Polish dumpling. Pretty much any 456 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: society has their version of a dumpling. Sure, but this 457 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: is a about the size of a clam, and it's 458 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 1: like a potato f It is stuffed with potato and 459 00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:00,159 Speaker 1: a kid have sauer kraut or cheese or there's so 460 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: they probably had twenty five different types of progis up there, 461 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: the potatoes inside of it. I thought the soto was 462 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:05,880 Speaker 1: the dumpling material. 463 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 2: Well I don't know. So it's like a dough on 464 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,160 Speaker 2: the outside and you got a filling. So the potato 465 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 2: and whatever else is in there is the filling that 466 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 2: goes in it. 467 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: So, see, I've had a perogi a couple of times, 468 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: and I still don't know what the damn thing right exactly. 469 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,159 Speaker 1: It's yeah, it's basically a big dumpling potato. It's starch, 470 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,439 Speaker 1: it's tasty, it's good, it's fried. Any anytime you fry something, 471 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: you know it's it's going to find a home in 472 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 1: the state of Indiana. 473 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:29,160 Speaker 2: So yeah, So this festival, apparently it started off thirty 474 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 2: five years ago, was a small thing. They probably had 475 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 2: I think they said they were going to get about 476 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 2: one hundred thousand people a day that we're going to 477 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 2: show up. But this was four blocks long on either 478 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 2: side of the street. It was vendors shoulder to shoulder. 479 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:47,199 Speaker 2: So I'm guessing I don't know, forty vendors, maybe fifty vendors, 480 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 2: and they all had progi's and various other things on 481 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 2: a pole of sausage that had beer tents. They had 482 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 2: like five live music stages. The one hundred thousand people 483 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,719 Speaker 2: a day, thousand a day?

But that's okay because you're paying 657 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,480 Speaker 1: for it with your own money. But one of the 658 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: things that's been under debate since RFK has taken charge 659 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: of reforming American health and trying to make America healthy 660 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:45,719 Speaker 1: again is by allowing states to determine or remove unhealthy 661 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 1: food items from being covered by SNAP. 662 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 2: This is something that's been discussed. In Indiana. 663 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 1: We took one of the leads in removing I think 664 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 1: candy and soda from being covered by the Supplemental Nutritional 665 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 1: Assistance Program because it's not very nutritious and you're spending 666 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: your money on SODA's and candy. They are now also 667 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: discussing this in Texas as well. I believe it is 668 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 1: a SB SB three seventy nine, Yes, SB three seventy nine, 669 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: that is working its way through the Texas Senate. It's 670 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 1: been approved and sent over to the Texas House. But 671 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 1: you won't believe who is opposing removing soda and candy 672 00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 1: from Snap, and that would be the American Heart Association. 673 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 8: Ooh cohment often say that I can never be surprised 674 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 8: in this building, but for the American Heart Association to 675 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 8: be against this bill I speak. Through seventy nine seeks 676 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 8: to remove soda, candy, potato and corn, chips and cookies 677 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 8: from a list of items eligible for purchase with Snap. 678 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 6: My name is Alec Pointa, and I'm the director of 679 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 6: government relations for the American Heart Association. I'm here to 680 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 6: testify today in opposition to Senate Bill three seventy nine. 681 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 8: I would encourage you to look at what it restricts me. 682 00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 6: The Heart Association, it's concerned about potential impacts of this 683 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 6: bill on participation and population health. Imposing nutritional restrictions interfere 684 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 6: with the primary function of SNAP, producing hunger without reducing 685 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 6: root causes of chronic disease, and. 686 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 8: Here because I want to support the children on this 687 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 8: program and protect them from the chronic disease that sugar 688 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 8: will lead them to develop. Actually advocated for this bill 689 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 8: in Arizona and was shocked by the big soda companies 690 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,959 Speaker 8: sending their own person to come and advocate for the 691 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 8: fact that there's no correlation between soda consumption and obesity, 692 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 8: which is just a straight up life butter. 693 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 5: It just fills the cracks of the heart away pain. 694 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, if sure you would understand the 695 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 1: soda lobby, you know, not wanting to be cut off 696 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: from the grift, but the American Heart Association saying that 697 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 1: removing unhealthy food items from government assistants doesn't address the 698 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 1: root cause of the problem. I dare say, Brad that 699 00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 1: if you are a diabetic, the root cause is soda sugar. 700 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 2: Don't be stuff in your face with it. The bigger 701 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 2: shock to me is that you are allowed to buy 702 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 2: those things in the first place. Yeah. I mean this 703 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 2: coming from a man who drinks five diet Doctor peppers 704 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 2: a day, I'm a bit of a soda overachiever. But 705 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 2: that is a luxury item. It is a treat. It 706 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 2: is not there's nothing nutritious about candy or soda. It 707 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 2: provides zero nutrition. So if the whole goal of this 708 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 2: program is to provide you with nutrition to get you 709 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 2: on down the road and grow strong bones, it should 710 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 2: be going to milk, vegetables, meat, yes, regular meals, not 711 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 2: candy and soda. 712 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 1: Soda and candy are basically just sugar. And while it 713 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: might be providing you with a caloric intake that will 714 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 1: keep your body going for a certain amount of time, 715 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: without supplementing that with actual vitamins, minerals, and the things 716 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: that your body needs to continue to function, you will 717 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: quickly find yourself at a nutritional deficit by exclusively eating 718 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 1: these items. And when you examine how money is being 719 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: spended through the SNAP program, most of it a good 720 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: chunk of it. I think the number one expenditure in 721 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,719 Speaker 1: fact is soda, and then other sweets candy rounding out 722 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 1: the top five chips I think is number two. You 723 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 1: know a lot of unhealthy foods, and if the government's 724 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 1: going to be providing your nutrition, then nutrition it's in 725 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,319 Speaker 1: the name, is what should be provided now, Ethan, I 726 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:26,279 Speaker 1: learned this several years ago and when I ran for 727 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 1: Lieutenant governor in twenty twelve. So they you know, they 728 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: always talk about the Farm Bill and on how that's 729 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 1: for farmers, like over seventy percent of the Farm Bill 730 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 1: and the USDA budget goes towards snap and student lunches, 731 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: school lunches and that sort of thing. I mean, none 732 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 1: of that is there to really help the farmers other 733 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 1: than get people to consume the goods that they produce. 734 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 1: And yeah, it's fascinating how much money goes into these programs. 735 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 1: And to find out that is going towards candy and 736 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 1: sodas make I wonder we have deficits. 737 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:03,279 Speaker 2: Not a lot of sugar cane farming going on in 738 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 2: the United States. No, that's sugar beets is what provides 739 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 2: most of the sugar in the United States, or corn syrup. 740 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,800 Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to ninety three WIBC.

As of yesterday, 764 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:25,920 Speaker 1: it would be Herman Kane. He was one of the 765 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 1: Republican primary challengers in the twenty twelve presidential election, and 766 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 1: we really had a pretty good lineup of Republican challenges, 767 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 1: including Ron Paul. I mean, you had, right, so many 768 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 1: good choices that you could have ended up with in 769 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 1: twenty twelve, and we got we settled for Mittens. 770 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 2: What a mistake that was, What a mistake that was. 771 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 1: I still wonder today what the world might look like 772 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 1: had he secured the presidential nomination. What would the Republican 773 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:55,320 Speaker 1: Party look like if there was a Herman Kane presidential 774 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 1: victory in twenty twelve? He still had, to my mind 775 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,400 Speaker 1: a very compelling pitch. Do you remember it was the 776 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 1: nine nine to nine plan. 777 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 2: Correct, which, yeah, he was Herman Kaine was a key 778 00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 2: party activist, but he'd been what CEO of Godfather's Pea Pizza. 779 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 2: He also worked for the Federal Reserve, Federal Reserve of 780 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 2: Kansas City. He was with Burger, King and Pillsbury. 781 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 1: Very illustrious career, very intelligent individual. He also was a 782 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 1: broadcaster and he would fill in from time to time 783 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,399 Speaker 1: on the Rush Limbaugh Show, which I mean, anybody who's 784 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 1: worked in broadcasting knows it takes an incredible amount of 785 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,920 Speaker 1: talent to be entertaining for three hours, especially when you 786 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: were hosting that solo for an already illustrious show like 787 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 1: the Limbaugh Program, and he was able to do it 788 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 1: with one hand tied behind his back. 789 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,840 Speaker 2: Was great. Yeah, incredibly smart guy. Yeah, very articulate. 790 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 1: And of course for those who forget the nine to 791 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:46,320 Speaker 1: nine to nine plan, he said, if the Lord's not 792 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 1: taken ten percent, then why should the federal government. It 793 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: was a nine percent income tax, nine percent corporate tax, 794 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 1: and then a nine percent sales tax, and it would 795 00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:58,439 Speaker 1: have provided all the revenue that you need to fund 796 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,280 Speaker 1: or what should fund as sponsible federal government. 797 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 2: Love that idea, you would think, which, Yeah, the world 798 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:07,359 Speaker 2: would be a very different place if Herman Kane would 799 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,040 Speaker 2: have had the nomination, if Ron Paul would have got 800 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 2: a nomination, if Rie and Paul would have had a nomination. 801 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: But in remembrance of his passing, I thought we would 802 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 1: play a song. This was actually written by one of 803 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 1: his detractors, but you know what, it's still catchy and 804 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 1: I love Herman Kane.

I think 824 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 1: it would have been a fascinating contrast between the policies 825 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 1: of Herman Kane and Barack Obama at the time. And 826 00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 1: then they also couldn't play the race card, you know, 827 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 1: because Mitten's he was a pasty film. 828 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 2: It was lily white, yes, yeah, yeah, then the Mormon 829 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 2: thing probably didn't the big scheme of things didn't help 830 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:08,839 Speaker 2: him a bunch. Really. 831 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,720 Speaker 1: You think it was a response to being a Mormon 832 00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 1: a little bit. I think it was a response to 833 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 1: being an East Coast Republican because he just did not 834 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 1: offer much contrast between himself and Barack Obama. And then, 835 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 1: of course he had also passed the framework for what 836 00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 1: eventually became Obamacare with his own version of government sponsored 837 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,799 Speaker 1: healthcare there in Massachusetts it was Romneycare. 838 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,880 Speaker 2: Yes, that's true. So Ethan, who do the Republicans have? 839 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 2: Who are they looking at? Who are the Democrats looking at? 840 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 2: You think next time around? Oh? I don't know. It's 841 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 2: too far to say. 842 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,760 Speaker 1: At this point, I think Ron DeSantis is still currying 843 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,800 Speaker 1: the idea of potentially appearing on the national stage. He 844 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:52,759 Speaker 1: continues to curry media favor and attention for himself. I 845 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,799 Speaker 1: think that is a calculated decision, and he probably has 846 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:57,839 Speaker 1: his eyes on the presidency once again. 847 00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:00,879 Speaker 2: We shall see. I would be a supporter. Yeah, yeah, 848 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 2: it's good dude. 849 00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 1: Thanks for tuning in, everybody.
