1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: Quit the tough guy act and these Senate hearings. You

2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:09,719
Speaker 1: know where to find me any place, any time, cowboy. Sorry,

3
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 1: this is a time. This is a place. If you

4
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 1: want to run your mouth, we can be too, consenting adults.

5
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:15,160
Speaker 1: We can finish it here.

6
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 2: Okay, that's fine, perfect, you.

7
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 1: Want to do it now.

8
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:18,600
Speaker 3: I'd love to do it right now.

9
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:19,479
Speaker 1: We'll stand your butt up.

10
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 2: Down, you stand up on up, stop it.

11
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:23,320
Speaker 4: Tell your solution.

12
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 5: Follow up.

13
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 2: You know you're United States Senator?

14
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 6: Yeah? Mark Wayne Mullan.

15
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:32,200
Speaker 7: Wait wait, wait, did you hear the end of two

16
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 7: consenting adults? Let's do it now? Stand your butt up.

17
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 7: I didn't think they were talking about fighting. They were okay, fine,

18
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 7: sounded like something else for a minute, Mark Wayne.

19
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 4: Mullin, your potential new Department of Helmeland Security secretary, won

20
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 4: over sixty percent of the vote in his most recent.

21
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 6: Election in Oklahoma.

22
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,519
Speaker 4: He could probably be a US Senator for the rest

23
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 4: of his life if he wanted to. But instead, Donald

24
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 4: Trump called him and he said, yes, pick me.

25
00:00:58,480 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 6: So he's still.

26
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,160
Speaker 4: Waiting for Senate confirmation before officially taking the position. Mark

27
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 4: Wayne Mullen in christynome out, but not all the way

28
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 4: out and we'll talk about that coming up. You've also

29
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 4: got Donald Trump saying that plans for Cuba are going

30
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 4: to follow combat actions in Iran.

31
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 8: That will be just a question of time before you

32
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,679
Speaker 8: and a lot of unbelievable people are going to be

33
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 8: going back to Cuba, hopefully not to stay.

34
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:26,559
Speaker 2: We want you back and we don't want.

35
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 5: To lose you. We don't want to make it so

36
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 5: nice that they stay. But some people probably do want

37
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 5: to stay. They love Cuba so much. I hear it

38
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 5: all the time.

39
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 4: Also on the way, we've got Indiana Congressman Rudy Yackham

40
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 4: paying tribute to Lou Holtz on the House floor.

41
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 2: That's exactly who coach.

42
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 9: Holts was a national champion, a Hall of Fame coach, sure,

43
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 9: but even more importantly, he was an extraordinary person.

44
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: He's someone who bought out the best of people.

45
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 4: And who won the week. Well, guess what it's not

46
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 4: the CEO of White Castle.

47
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,559
Speaker 2: What's up? I'm big Earn CEO over here, White Castle ceo.

48
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,799
Speaker 2: As I guess we're doing a lot of videos right now, new.

49
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 7: Products, cheeseburger, suitcase, any of these things here.

50
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 2: I eat these to launch like every day.

51
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 7: Is that really the CEO White Castle or alert No,

52
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 7: that's not the CEO White cast.

53
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 2: I love how he referenced himself as Big Earn.

54
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 7: That's a callback to the movie Kingpin and Bill Murray's

55
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 7: character in there.

56
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 2: Who is big earned He's.

57
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 4: Got the burger suitcase. My name is Casey, that is Jim.

58
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 4: Let's go back to what's going on with the soon

59
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 4: to be former Homeland Security Secretary Christy Nome. This kind

60
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 4: of looks more like a promotion than a punishment, right

61
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 4: because now she's.

62
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,959
Speaker 6: Going to be moving into this special envoy.

63
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 4: Position the Shield of the Americas, this new US Initiative

64
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 4: focus that's on security operations across the Western hemisphere, North Central,

65
00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 4: and South America. Moving her into a hemispear wide security

66
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 4: role obviously suggests that Donald Trump still values her on

67
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 4: the broader level, especially when it comes to cartel policy.

68
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 4: So all of these people that are saying she was fired,

69
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 4: she's fired, Yeah, but she's also failing up.

70
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 2: Well.

71
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 7: She was a terrible fit from the beginning because Donald

72
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 7: Trump ran One of his big things was the border

73
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 7: in illegal immigration.

74
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 2: We're closed down the border and.

75
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,239
Speaker 7: Then we're going to deport all the legals and who

76
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:29,959
Speaker 7: do you want as your secretary to head up that operation, Christino,

77
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 7: somebody who has absolutely no experience in national security or intelligence,

78
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 7: no federal law enforcement experience, no immigration experience none whatsoever,

79
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 7: no military or military command experience. And in fact, she

80
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 7: was representative from South Dakota and then she was the

81
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 7: governor of South Dakota, but before that she ran her

82
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 7: family's farm and ranch. So not really probably the best

83
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 7: fit egg secretary. Fine, you want to put her, you know,

84
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 7: Interior secretary, kick deg Bergam out of there and make

85
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 7: him that actually Doug Bergham would have been better if

86
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 7: he would have been the Department of Homeland Security secretary.

87
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 2: And then on top of that, just too many things.

88
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 7: That just looked bad. You had the incidents in Minneapolis

89
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 7: with Ice. You had her spending tons, I mean literally

90
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 7: millions of dollars to turn her private government airplanes into

91
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 7: what looked like a gorgeous Manhattan one bedroom apartment.

92
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 2: And then to.

93
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:27,359
Speaker 7: Top it all off, they asked about her potential affair

94
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 7: with Corey Lewandowski, who by the way, also works for

95
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 7: the Department of Homeland Security, And because she was under oath,

96
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 7: all she did was call it taboid trash and attacked

97
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 7: the person asking the questions so that she, you know,

98
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 7: didn't have to answer the question and potentially perjure herself.

99
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 2: Is this a good move? Christinome was never a good

100
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 2: fit for DHS secretary.

101
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 4: Well, do you remember when Donald Trump was first running,

102
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 4: there was talked that maybe she would be his vice

103
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 4: presidential pick.

104
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 6: And you know that video of her with the flamethrower.

105
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,359
Speaker 4: She was trying to put this image she was this

106
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 4: tough chick, and I think she but then when the

107
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 4: whole ice Barbie Moniker attached to her, she became more

108
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 4: of a liability than anything. You got to keep in

109
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 4: mind these cabinet officials, they're not independent policy makers. They're

110
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 4: temporary political brands. And when the brand starts producing more

111
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 4: controversy than momentum, that's when it gets swapped out. And

112
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 4: she had become a liability. She did face that intense

113
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 4: congressional grilling, but like you mentioned, the controversy over the

114
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 4: DHS spending and criticism around the immigration enforcement incidents and

115
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 4: the messaging, and then you add the reports that she

116
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 4: angered Trump during her testimony, including the disputes about that

117
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 4: campaign ad and the relationship deteriorated.

118
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 6: I mean she was.

119
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 4: Actually she was tasked with implementing some of the administration's

120
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 4: hardest line immigration policies. I mean that was a tough position.

121
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 4: It was his number one priority. You knew they were

122
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 4: going to come in hard and heavy, and they did.

123
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 4: She made some mistakes, and so now she's being reassigned.

124
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 4: She said, the Western hemisphere is absolutely critical for US security.

125
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 6: In this new role, I'll be able to build in the.

126
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 4: Partnership and national security experience I forged over the last

127
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 4: thirteen month as Secretary of Homeland Security. So the shield

128
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 4: of the Americas. It shows you, though, this is a

129
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 4: broader effort. Probably not a bad move because now you're

130
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,280
Speaker 4: gonna have Mark Wayne Mullen in there.

131
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,119
Speaker 6: He's gonna be tough guy.

132
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,039
Speaker 4: He can get along with home in they can do

133
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 4: what they're gonna do in country. And then they're gonna

134
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 4: send Christy Nome to all of these summits with leaders.

135
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 6: She can fly.

136
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 4: Around in her planes and she can be the diplomat.

137
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 4: She'll spend time with Javey air Malay.

138
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 5: Yeah.

139
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,919
Speaker 2: If I'm Christy Nome, I'm like, this is awesome.

140
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 7: You mean, I don't have to deal for her, I

141
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 7: don't have to deal with all these problems with ice

142
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 7: shooting people and US having to hire all these ice

143
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 7: officers and the controversies around it, and spending time in Minneapolis.

144
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 7: I mean, I get to go to Argent Buenas Aires

145
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 7: instead and hang out with international power brokers and fly

146
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 7: around all over the Western hemisphere.

147
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,559
Speaker 2: It sounds like a lot less stress, a lot cooler job.

148
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 7: And if I'm Christinome, I mean I view this as

149
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 7: a better outcome for her.

150
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, clearly.

151
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 4: So the problem was that she just became too politically

152
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 4: messy to keep defending. If you're in the cabinet, results matter,

153
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 4: but you can't embarrass the president. And it seems like

154
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 4: that's what she did, especially after she was grilled by

155
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 4: Senator Kennedy. He was just you know, asking her over

156
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,239
Speaker 4: and over again about that two hundred and twenty million

157
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 4: dollar taxpayer funded ad featuring her on the.

158
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 6: Horse in the mountains. What does that have to do

159
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 6: with border security? It looked like then making her look good.

160
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 7: It looked like a campaign ad, looked like she was

161
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 7: running for something, And again she did not have the

162
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 7: background for this. And you know, part of this is

163
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 7: the problem is that, and all presidents do this. This

164
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 7: isn't just specifically Trump. Is that when you're campaigning, you

165
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,239
Speaker 7: get people that agree to endorse you, and then because

166
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 7: of that, then you gotta find the job for him.

167
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 7: And in some ways it works out perfectly, like with

168
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 7: RFK Junior. Okay, RFK Junior, I'm gonna get your endorsement. Okay,

169
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 7: I'm gonna give you a high position in this in

170
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 7: this administration. And you're really passionate and have a lot

171
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 7: of experience about Americans' health, perfect health and human services. Outstanding,

172
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 7: Tulsi Gabbert, you want to come on board, We'll give

173
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 7: you a high position, great military and intelligence background. You're

174
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 7: going to be the director of National Intelligence. Okay, works

175
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 7: out pretty well. Christine Ome, You're going to campaign and

176
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 7: endorse me and help me run a ton of money,

177
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 7: and I don't know what to.

178
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 2: Do with you. So how about Department of Homeland Security.

179
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 4: So we go back to that testimony between her and

180
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 4: Senator Kennedy when he was asking her about the campaign ad.

181
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 4: The company that got most of the money was run

182
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 4: by someone married to her former spokesperson, and another firm

183
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,319
Speaker 4: was created just eleven days before they were selected. There

184
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 4: was no competitive bidding, and it it really did not

185
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 4: make the president look good.

186
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 2: President improved ahead of time.

187
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: You spending two hundred and twenty million dollars running TV

188
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 1: ads across the country in which you are featured prominently, Yes, sir.

189
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 3: We went through the legal processes.

190
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 6: Did it correct? Yes, he did?

191
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 4: Yes, Okay, Yeah, those ads are still running, by the way,

192
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 4: and what is the ad? Well, the ad that turned

193
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 4: into be somewhat of the final straw. You combine that

194
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,320
Speaker 4: with everything that happened in Minnesota, the allegations of the affair,

195
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 4: it all just boiled over. It's been brewing for a

196
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 4: couple of months. Things seem kind of fishy about the

197
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 4: production company that was chosen to create that image ad.

198
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 4: That company received one hundred and forty three million dollars.

199
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 4: It was incorporated eight days before the contract went out.

200
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 4: They weren't listed as a government contractor.

201
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 7: Seems like they kind of like slap that together at

202
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:03,319
Speaker 7: the last minute.

203
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 6: Oh, you're gonna pick us. Oh, I guess we better

204
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 6: get our pepperwork together. Yeah.

205
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 7: And a big part of this, too, is the fact

206
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,559
Speaker 7: that she was allegedly having an affair with an employee

207
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 7: of the Department of Homeland Security.

208
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 2: You can't do that. I've seen people.

209
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 7: Try and pass that off like, oh, this is just

210
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 7: two consenting adults. No, that's not the way it works.

211
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,559
Speaker 7: Because if Corey Lewandowski wanted to bring a sexual harassment

212
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 7: suit against his boss, who Christy nome Is, that is

213
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 7: a just about a guaranteed slam dunk multimillion dollar payout

214
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 7: from the government to Corey Lewandowski. That's why, both in

215
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 7: the government and in corporations, bosses are not allowed to

216
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 7: have relationships with their subordinates.

217
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 4: So in her new role, she's going to work with

218
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 4: foreign governments, she's going to coordinate security efforts across the hemisphere.

219
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,079
Speaker 4: She's going to help lead anti cartel and anti drug

220
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 4: trafficking strategies, and she will most likely still get to

221
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,559
Speaker 4: do it on those big, beautiful planes, and she'll be

222
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 4: able to do it in front of the camera. So

223
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 4: I mean, it's really it's really not going to be

224
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 4: that big of a bad deal for her.

225
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 7: Her social media is going to look great. It'll be

226
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 7: pictures of her and Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro and.

227
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 6: More like that promotion than a punish.

228
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,559
Speaker 7: In Mexico City, she's going to look like a travel

229
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,599
Speaker 7: influencer on her Instagram page.

230
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 4: Here is that ad that sparked all of the controversy.

231
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 3: Why do I love these wide open spaces? They remind

232
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 3: me of why our forefathers came here, not just for

233
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 3: its beauty, but for the freedom only America provides. I'm Christino.

234
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 3: From the cowboys who tamed the West, to the titans

235
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 3: who built our cities, to the dreamers who chase the impossible,

236
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 3: America has always rewarded vision and grit. Our greatness calls

237
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 3: people to us for a chance to prosper, to live

238
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 3: how they choose, to become part of something special. Anyone

239
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 3: who searches for freedom can always find a home here.

240
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 3: But that freedom's a precious thing, and we defend it vigorously.

241
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 3: You cross the border illegally, we'll find you, break our laws.

242
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 3: We'll punish you harm American citizens. There will be consequences.

243
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 3: But if you come here the right way, your American

244
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 3: dream can be as big as these endless guys.

245
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 4: Twenty million dollars. That's what that costs you, two hundred

246
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 4: and twenty million dollars.

247
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 2: I don't think they got their money's worth.

248
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,839
Speaker 7: I'm gonna guests here, But to me, it doesn't seem

249
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 7: like they got that much money's worth.

250
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 8: Oh.

251
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,359
Speaker 2: By the way, Christy nom.

252
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 7: Publicly wrote in her book and bragged about the fact

253
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 7: that she shot her dog dead because the dog wasn't

254
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 7: a very good hunting dog. So it wasn't like, oh,

255
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,679
Speaker 7: turn it into a family pad or give it to

256
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,199
Speaker 7: a shelter or a family friend.

257
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 2: Nope, just shot the dog.

258
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 6: Yeah. It was filmed five months ago at Mount Rushmore.

259
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 6: By the way, you're listening to ninety three WIBC. So

260
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:51,559
Speaker 6: were we just collectively.

261
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 4: Saying yeah, see you next week when everyone's tired and cranky.

262
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 6: Sure, do us feel like it? Doesn't it? We've got

263
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 6: daylight Saving Time coming up Sunday two a m I know,

264
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 6: meaning we're moving the clocks forward by an hour. All

265
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 6: this is gonna do is just mess up.

266
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,959
Speaker 4: With our sleep and our body clock and wreak havoc

267
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 4: on our moods.

268
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 7: Yeah, and this is the bad one. This is where

269
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 7: we spring forward. In the fall, you're like, oh, Okay,

270
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 7: this isn't so bad. I get Yeah, I get an

271
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 7: extra hour of sleep. And in the spring you're like,

272
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 7: oh god, I think I'm gonna die. Okay, I'm gonna

273
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 7: put you on the spot here, Casey, recent polling, what

274
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 7: percentage of the American people do you think support daylight

275
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 7: savings time? Support it like they're all for daylight saving time?

276
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 7: I want you to tell me what percentage do you

277
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 7: think support daylight savings time according to a recent poll?

278
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 4: Well, I think the people who support daylight saving time

279
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 4: is probably.

280
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 2: That's what we're gonna do.

281
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,559
Speaker 7: You're gonna get on me because I said daylight savings

282
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,839
Speaker 7: time and the proper way is daylight.

283
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 2: Saving Okay, yeah, it's gonna be one of those days,

284
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 2: isn't it? All right? Fine?

285
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:02,839
Speaker 6: Fine, I think it's probably pretty low. I think it is,

286
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 6: what fifteen percent?

287
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 2: Exactly? Fifteen on the button? No way, did you nail

288
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 2: that on the bus side. This is one of them.

289
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,680
Speaker 2: You know who I am. I do your, Casey Daniel.

290
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's right.

291
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 7: This is one of my least favorite things. When you

292
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 7: see it either in government or in your personal life,

293
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 7: or certainly in corporate business your job, when you ask somebody, hey,

294
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 7: why do we do that and their response is no, no, no,

295
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 7: that's just the way we've always done it. It is

296
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 7: it drives me insane when somebody says, that's.

297
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 2: Just the way we've always done it.

298
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, so we're just going to be changed in the

299
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 4: clock by an hour so that we can mess with

300
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 4: everyone's attention, mood, even heart health.

301
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 6: So why are we doing this?

302
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 4: We're essentially running a nationwide sleep deprivation experiment every March.

303
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 6: It's a Farmers don't want it anymore.

304
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 4: Energy savings are debated, and your schedule doesn't depend on

305
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 4: sunlight the way it used to do a century ago.

306
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 6: So it's just it's really not good policy anymore.

307
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 4: But because it's too all of a problem for Congress

308
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 4: to prioritize, or just too annoying for anybody to do

309
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 4: anything about, we just keep on going along with it.

310
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 6: Right, it's one of those I mean, they can't even

311
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 6: fix real problems.

312
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 2: Right, we expect them, But this is one thing like this.

313
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 7: This is when they could fix maybe if they did

314
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 7: start fixing the small problems, going to the you know,

315
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 7: the classic broken windows theory, Start with the small stuff,

316
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 7: and then maybe the big stuff won't be so bad anymore.

317
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 7: This seems like it would be pretty easy. Nobody wants it.

318
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 7: There's no real justification or explanation while we're still doing it.

319
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 7: Seems like it would be a pretty simple vote in Congress,

320
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 7: not risky for a politician. If you're a politician, you're

321
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 7: always worried about, Okay, which of my constituent groups am

322
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 7: I gonna upset by voting one way or the other.

323
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 7: We just talked about only fifteen percent of the American

324
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 7: people support daylight savings time. It seems like it's I

325
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 7: would like to see a politician have that be the

326
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 7: lead part of their campaign. I am going to I'm

327
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 7: going to end at daylight savings time in this country.

328
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 4: It seems like something that I don't know, somebody like

329
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 4: Representative Andrew Ireland would pick up because he's all about

330
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 4: the state sign. Now, I know we need somebody in

331
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 4: the federal government to do something about this nationwide.

332
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 6: But it's one of those poor tenderloin sandwich sort of things.

333
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 7: But this is an example where everybody hates it and

334
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 7: it affects our lit Twice a year people complain about

335
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 7: daylight savings time, and especially in the spring because that's

336
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 7: the one we lose the hour. That's where we lose

337
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 7: an hour as opposed to gaining one. So it seems

338
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 7: like it would be an easy platform to run on.

339
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 7: Or even if you don't run on that, and you're

340
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 7: in Congress, it seems like it would be easy to say, hey, guys,

341
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 7: maybe we can get together and really get people to

342
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 7: like us a.

343
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 2: Little bit more. Because everybody hates Congress. If we just

344
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 2: did this thing.

345
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 4: And fix on going to laugh out the door, they're

346
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 4: gonna be like, oh, okay, why don't you pick something

347
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 4: a little bit more serious than that.

348
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, pundits may laugh at you, the elites may laugh

349
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 7: at you, but people who are actually on the ground

350
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 7: doing the voting deal.

351
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 2: I think that Daylight Savings guys onto something here. We

352
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 2: need to get rid of that. I'm gonna vote for him.

353
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 4: So doctor say, to adjust your body and your life

354
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,120
Speaker 4: to this. You should start getting into a regular sleep

355
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 4: routine now before the time change. Take short naps, ten

356
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:09,919
Speaker 4: to twenty minute naps if needed.

357
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:11,120
Speaker 6: I like the sounds of that.

358
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 2: More naps.

359
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 6: I like a nap, A good nap. You should, although

360
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 6: you should avoid.

361
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 4: Your naps late in the day because then you're not

362
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 4: going to be able to sleep at night.

363
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 6: I think we're onto something here.

364
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:27,640
Speaker 7: I think you might be onto something here. Here's my suggestion. Yeah, sure,

365
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 7: those are what doctors recommend you should do. I'm going

366
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 7: to make a recommendation just take Monday off, Like that's

367
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,920
Speaker 7: how devastating daylight, say spring forward.

368
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:36,439
Speaker 2: Is to my body.

369
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 7: I need an entire day off to get my body

370
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 7: reset and recover from it.

371
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 4: It is a reminder though, that when you have these

372
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,959
Speaker 4: government man data time shifts shifts, it does have some

373
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 4: real consequences.

374
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 6: It is it can It affects people.

375
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 4: It affects there, you have trouble focusing, you have a

376
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 4: lower attention span, you just got this general fatigue. And

377
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 4: it especially affects children who are on the spectrum or

378
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 4: have you know, disability, because it really recks with their bodies.

379
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,919
Speaker 2: A lot of people report that their dogs struggle with it.

380
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 2: Like if you've got pets in your do we go

381
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 2: that's it right.

382
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 7: Well again, I'm again lobbying for somebody to take this

383
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 7: mantle up and make it a key part of their campaign.

384
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 7: Do it for the dogs. But if you've got a dog,

385
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 7: you know, dogs are you know all about getting fed?

386
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 7: They love their breakfast in the morning. And if you

387
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 7: usually feed them at six o'clock in the morning, and

388
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,200
Speaker 7: then all of a sudden six o'clock is really five

389
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:26,680
Speaker 7: o'clock in their body minds. Then they're you know, scratching

390
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,640
Speaker 7: and pawing at you while you're still sleeping at five

391
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 7: am getting ready to wake up.

392
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 4: You're listening to ninety three WYBC. Kind of a love

393
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 4: hate thing. Seems like they're trying to do two things

394
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:47,160
Speaker 4: at once. But on one hand, I'm like, Okay, yeah, cool,

395
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:48,399
Speaker 4: that makes sense, And on the other.

396
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 6: Hand, I'm like, oh, yeah, it doesn't mean anything yet.

397
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,919
Speaker 4: So the Indiana State Board of Education unanimously approved a

398
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:59,439
Speaker 4: new system to grade how schools are performing across the state,

399
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 4: and the system is going to bring back A through

400
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 4: F letter grades for school something Indiana hasn't updated since

401
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,919
Speaker 4: twenty eighteen. The grades are going to be based on

402
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 4: a point scale such as, yeah, ninety three one hundred

403
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 4: is an A, eighty three eighty nine is a B,

404
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 4: seventy to seventy nine is a C, sixty to sixty

405
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 4: nine is a D, and below sixty is an F.

406
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 4: Those are the grading systems that I grew up with,

407
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:28,239
Speaker 4: that I was used to. But what it's really going

408
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 4: to do, it's going to kind of split it. They're

409
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,400
Speaker 4: trying to split the difference because it looks like it's

410
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 4: tough and transparent with these letter grades. However, they're not

411
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 4: going to do anything with this until next year, so

412
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 4: there won't be any consequences. It's like, Okay, we're going

413
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 4: to implement this, see how it works, but we're not

414
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,439
Speaker 4: going to hold anybody accountable to for a while for

415
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 4: a while.

416
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 2: I think I'm in favor of this.

417
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 7: In fact, I know I'm in favor of this because

418
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 7: if I was a parent that still had a child

419
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 7: in school, our daughter's grown and out of school, now,

420
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 7: our daughter was still in school, I'd want to know

421
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 7: this information because there are some independent third party groups

422
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,920
Speaker 7: that will give score you know, different school districts and

423
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 7: schools ratings and grades, but all of those third party

424
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,920
Speaker 7: groups use different metrics, and so this is kind of

425
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:18,119
Speaker 7: a unified system. Because if my child is going to

426
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 7: a school that is not performing up to a certain standard,

427
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 7: I at least want to know about that. So this

428
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 7: is in my I view this as transparency, more information

429
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 7: for the parents so that then they can decide whether

430
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:32,679
Speaker 7: or not they want to keep their kid in that

431
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,439
Speaker 7: school district, whether or not they want to work with

432
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,919
Speaker 7: the school district or the school board to improve on

433
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 7: those scores. In my mind, this is all about more

434
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 7: information for the parents, which I am one hundred percent

435
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 7: on board.

436
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 4: It really does seem like they're trying to reset the narrative.

437
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,119
Speaker 4: This after years of education policy chaos. I mean, you

438
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 4: had testing changes, you had the COVID disruptions, you had

439
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:55,360
Speaker 4: the pause grading, and now Indiana is rebooting it kind

440
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,680
Speaker 4: of like when your phone keeps crashing, you know, they

441
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,400
Speaker 4: turn it off, count to ten, turn it back off, And.

442
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:01,880
Speaker 6: That seems like what they're trying to do.

443
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,919
Speaker 4: So schools are going to earn points based on things

444
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 4: like their passing state tests in reading and math, the

445
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 4: student improvement over time, attendance and engagement, also career and

446
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 4: technical experiences, and work based learning or credentials in high school.

447
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 4: And what they're saying is that they want to measure

448
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 4: both academic performance and also real world schools students gain

449
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 4: during the school year, and then the school itself is

450
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 4: going to receive a single letter grade ABCD or F

451
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 4: based on the average points that their students gain. So

452
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 4: we're going to look at each student's progress individually and

453
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,920
Speaker 4: then assign points based on their achievements and then give

454
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:50,880
Speaker 4: the school a grade overall.

455
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 7: Ultimately, what I hope this does is it gets parents

456
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 7: some more information so that they can get involved when

457
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,640
Speaker 7: their school isn't performing and have that conversation with the administrators,

458
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 7: have that conversation with the school board and say, okay, look,

459
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 7: state says we're not doing as good as we could

460
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 7: or maybe we got to be doing a lot better.

461
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,199
Speaker 2: What are you guys going to do about it?

462
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 7: I want information so that parents can hold their administrators

463
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 7: and the school board accountable to certain levels of performance.

464
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,919
Speaker 7: We always talk about how important local elections are, and

465
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,359
Speaker 7: school board elections may be one of the most important ones.

466
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 7: And I hope that this would give those parents that

467
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 7: information to use that at school board meetings.

468
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 2: And to hold the administrators accountable.

469
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 4: But this isn't going to take place until next year,

470
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 4: so it is kind of you know, the state is saying,

471
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 4: on one hand, hey, you know what grades are back,

472
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 4: but it's not going to immediately trigger any closures or

473
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 4: state takeovers or any teacher backlash.

474
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 6: So it is accountability without the teeth.

475
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 7: Just yet, there's no teeth in this. Absolutely from everything

476
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:50,639
Speaker 7: that I've.

477
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 6: Read on those messaging it's well, it's.

478
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 7: Transparency and it's giving parents information. You know, I know

479
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,040
Speaker 7: the state has some mechanisms already to take over failing

480
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:02,199
Speaker 7: schools and to manage this. Really isn't that side of

481
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 7: the equation. This is the parents side of the equation.

482
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,400
Speaker 7: It's hey, we're going to give you information, and now

483
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 7: it's on you to do what you want with that information.

484
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 7: To attend your school board meetings and say, hey, why.

485
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:13,200
Speaker 2: Is our schools?

486
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 7: Why is the school that my little Johnny goes to

487
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 7: getting a D right now?

488
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 2: And what are we doing to fix this?

489
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 4: So will the state actually act on any of these

490
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 4: failing schools or are the grades just going to be

491
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 4: informational parents? Yep, they want the simple rating system, the

492
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:33,400
Speaker 4: A through F. It's easy to understand educators. They hate

493
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 4: systems that punish schools for test scores alone.

494
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 6: So we'll see how it turns out.

495
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 4: But at least, as you mentioned, it will be easier

496
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,919
Speaker 4: for parents to follow. Hey, my kid goes to a

497
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 4: de rated school, It probably doesn't sound so good for

498
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:47,160
Speaker 4: your kid.

499
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 7: No, And maybe as a parent, if somebody who goes

500
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 7: to that school, I might want to do something about it.

501
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 2: I may want to go to a school board meeting.

502
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,960
Speaker 7: I want to call that school's administration say, hey, what's

503
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:57,880
Speaker 7: up with this d We've.

504
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:01,919
Speaker 4: Got Lionel Messi in his team visited the White House yesterday,

505
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,920
Speaker 4: this after winning the MLS Cup in twenty five. During

506
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:09,440
Speaker 4: the event, Lionel Messi presented Donald Trump with a special

507
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 4: pink soccer ball. It was decorated with Jules as a

508
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 4: gift inner Miami. They won the MLS title back into summer.

509
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 4: They beat the Vancouver white Caps three to one in

510
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 4: the final. Messi had a big impact on it. Trump

511
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 4: was praising Messi during the ceremony, even joked at one

512
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,639
Speaker 4: point that he might be better than Pele.

513
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love this.

514
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 7: If you don't know who Lionel Messi is, you know

515
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:32,879
Speaker 7: some people will call him the greatest soccer player of

516
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:36,120
Speaker 7: all time. He's from Argentina, so he plays for his

517
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 7: country's team and things like.

518
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 2: The World Cup.

519
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 7: Argentina won the most recent World Cup, and then he

520
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,359
Speaker 7: played in Europe where all the great soccer players play.

521
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 7: Now that he's getting to the end of his career,

522
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 7: he can he does what all the big soccer players do.

523
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,359
Speaker 7: They come to the United States and get a big Payday,

524
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 7: and so he's with the soccer team in Miami. There

525
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 7: they won the championship. They had the usual championship team

526
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 7: visit at the White House. My favorite part of all

527
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,160
Speaker 7: of this is, you know, keep in mind, Lionel Messy

528
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 7: from Argentina doesn't speak English really well. But it looked

529
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 7: like Marco Rubio was actually helping talking with him translating.

530
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 7: It looked like he was you know, there was a

531
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 7: group of people and it looked like Messi would talk

532
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 7: to Rubio and then Rubio would kind of translate and

533
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 7: relay that message over to who else was in the

534
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 7: conversation and then do the same thing back to Messi.

535
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 7: On this it was made for some interesting photographs. Yesterday

536
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 7: you have Marco Rubio.

537
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,199
Speaker 4: Donald Trump had an introduction for him during this. He

538
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 4: said he'll go down as the best secretary of State

539
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 4: in the country's history.

540
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 8: As well as proud Miami sports fan secretary of state.

541
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 8: I'm telling you he's going to go down as the

542
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 8: best secretary of state in the country's history.

543
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 5: Marco Rubio.

544
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 2: I don't want him to get Toupopkar.

545
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 8: Too. I don't want him to get Tupopta.

546
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:59,439
Speaker 5: You know, when they get too popular. All of a sudden,

547
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 5: you see whiz Marco, he's not around anymore.

548
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 2: I don't see it.

549
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 8: He's doing some job and your next one is going

550
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 8: to be we want to do that specialba. He's waiting,

551
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 8: but he says, let's get this one finished first.

552
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 2: We could do them all at the same time. But

553
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 2: bad things happen.

554
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:16,959
Speaker 8: If you watch countries over the years, you do them

555
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,200
Speaker 8: all too fast, bad things happen.

556
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 5: We're not gonna let anything bad happen to this country.

557
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 6: He's alluding to it right there.

558
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,960
Speaker 4: When he's done wrapping up with Iran, they're going to

559
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:27,959
Speaker 4: focus on Cuba.

560
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I've said this before.

561
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 7: I think that that was Marco Rubio's intent on being

562
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 7: part of the Trump administration the whole time. I think

563
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 7: that that's something they probably had a conversation about during

564
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:42,720
Speaker 7: the twenty twenty four election. Marco Rubio's parents immigrated from Cuba.

565
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:46,400
Speaker 7: Obviously he's from Cuban heritage. He you know, would love

566
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 7: My guess is Marco Rubio would prefer to be instilled

567
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,199
Speaker 7: as you know, the governor of Cuba, or be in

568
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,880
Speaker 7: charge of Cuba. If you know what Trump says ends

569
00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 7: up happening. He'd probably prefer that then being president of

570
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 7: the United States because that would be probably bigger in

571
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 7: his mind for his legacy. And I can't dispute what

572
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,359
Speaker 7: Trump says about how great Rubio's been.

573
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,880
Speaker 2: Look at look at the other cabinet secretaries. I mean,

574
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 2: all of them.

575
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 7: Have had controversies, have had problems, have had struggles. Whether

576
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,400
Speaker 7: it's Christine Noman, we know about that, but Howard Lucknick's

577
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 7: been caught up in the whole Epstein files. Head Seth

578
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:25,160
Speaker 7: has had his controversies, Robert F. Kennedy Junior's had his controversies.

579
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,400
Speaker 7: Marco Rubio has just been nothing but a rock star

580
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 7: since he came into office last year.

581
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 4: The one thing that is scary about Donald Trump projecting

582
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 4: what he's looking out and talking, you know forward, what

583
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,680
Speaker 4: he's looking forward to doing, is that's telling all these

584
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 4: other countries try and keep a mired down in Iran

585
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 4: so that he can't focus on Cuba, because he's saying,

586
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 4: you know what plans for Cuba when we follow combat

587
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 4: actions in Iran, well, I mean, listen to this.

588
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 8: What's happening with Cuba is amazing, and we think that

589
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 8: we want to finish this one first, but that will

590
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 8: be just shift time before you and a lot of

591
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 8: unbelievable people are going to be going back to Cuba,

592
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 8: hopefully not to stay. We want Quebeca, we don't want

593
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,679
Speaker 8: to lose you. We don't want to make it so

594
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 8: nice that they stay. But some people probably do want

595
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:14,400
Speaker 8: to stay.

596
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 5: They love Cuba so much. I hear it all the time.

597
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 4: So let's finish up what's going on in Iran and

598
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 4: then we'll turn our eyes on Cuba. This following actions

599
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 4: of Venezuela and then all of the controversy with Greenland.

600
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 6: This is coming from the president who want to know more.

601
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 2: Wars, no more wars.

602
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,239
Speaker 7: But I think what Donald Trump saw here is an

603
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 7: opportunity to kind of reset the entire global map and alliances.

604
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 7: And I think that that was too juicy for him

605
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 7: to pass up, even though he campaigned on the fact

606
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 7: that he was going to be the peace president and

607
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 7: wouldn't start all of these foreign wars.

608
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 6: So is the Caitlin Clark economy real? Seems like it.

609
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 4: TNT Sports has signed a new multi year deal with FIEBA.

610
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 4: They're going to broadcast major international basketball tournaments in the US.

611
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 4: This agreement includes some several big events, the twenty six

612
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 4: Women's Basketball World Cup, also the twenty seven Basketball World

613
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 4: Cup for the men in EuroBasket twenty twenty nine.

614
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,479
Speaker 6: Never heard of the EuroBasket before.

615
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 7: They're bigger more internationally, and basketball has become a much

616
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 7: more international sport the last thirty years. But this is

617
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 7: kind of a big deal. We haven't seen Kaitlyn Clark

618
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 7: play in ages because she was injured for the vast

619
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 7: majority of the last season. The most of the talk

620
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 7: about Kaitlin Clark in the WNBA this year has been

621
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 7: about the problem that they're having with their contract negotiation

622
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 7: with the players unions. That's been a total disaster. All

623
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 7: the experts are predicting that the best case scenario is

624
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 7: the WNBA will probably have some sort of a shortened

625
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 7: season because it's supposed to start in just a couple

626
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 7: of months here, and they don't have an agreement with

627
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 7: the players union yet. It's entirely possible that WNBA doesn't

628
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 7: have any season at all. And look, I'm not a

629
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 7: WNBA fan, but I'm a huge Kaitlin Clark fan, and

630
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 7: having not seen her play any games in almost a

631
00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 7: year now, this is pretty exciting.

632
00:29:59,440 --> 00:29:59,719
Speaker 2: So this.

633
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 7: The agreement that TNT has will allow them to broadcast

634
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 7: what is essentially the World Cup of Basketball, and it

635
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 7: starts next week. You can watch Caitlin Clark play basketball

636
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 7: on the Internet's international stage starting on Wednesday.

637
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 4: It's going to be on TNT and also HBO Max,

638
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 4: and like you mentioned, it's gonna feature her. Interesting because

639
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 4: this used to be broadcast on ESPN, but it does

640
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 4: show that you still have her as a major ratings driver,

641
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,560
Speaker 4: at least that's what they're betting on. You've got competition

642
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 4: in sports media very healthy when TNT starts taking rights

643
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 4: away from ESPN.

644
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 7: And there's obviously demand for this, and I find it

645
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 7: interesting that these games start in less than a week.

646
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 7: And before this agreement was announced yesterday, the only way

647
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 7: you could have watched this World Cup of Basketball was

648
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 7: strictly through subscription services online. There was no US distribution

649
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 7: rights over broadcaster cable. And I think TNT was looking

650
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 7: at this and going, wait, wait a minute, Kaitlin Clark's

651
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 7: going to be playing basketball and nobody's going to be

652
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 7: broadcasting the games in America.

653
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll sign me up for some of that. I

654
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 2: bet I could make a.

655
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 7: Ton of money. Off of selling commercials with tailing Carks.

656
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 7: That's what they're hoping for and they're likely going to

657
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 7: get it. Look, NBA has really struggled with their ratings.

658
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 7: They've really they've been up and down. They've had some

659
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 7: good instances of it, but then they've had some terrible.

660
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 2: Ratings instances already this season. Hockey.

661
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 7: While we loved watching hockey and the US men's and

662
00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 7: women's team win the gold medal, hockey is really a

663
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:31,800
Speaker 7: niche sport and not there. I think that you're going

664
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 7: to see millions of people. They should at least get

665
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 7: a million and a half to two million people a

666
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 7: game watching these Kaitlin Clark games play.

667
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 6: You're listening to Casey and Jim. It is ninety three WYBC.

668
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 6: Indiana's Governor Mike.

669
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 4: Brown has ordered flags to be flown at half staff

670
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 4: in honor of legendary football coach Lou Holts, who recently

671
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 4: passed away. He directed that all state government buildings across

672
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 4: Indiana do Those flags are going to be lowered from

673
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 4: sunset to sunrise on the day of Holtz's funeral, which

674
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 4: is scheduled for March sixteenth, and that's going to take

675
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 4: place in South Bend and he's going to be buried

676
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 4: at the Cedar Grove Cemetery at Notre Dame.

677
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:24,160
Speaker 6: Something I found out yesterday.

678
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 4: Lou Holtz passed away on March fourth, and new Rockney

679
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 4: was born on March fourth, So you've got these legends

680
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 4: that are going to be tied together.

681
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 8: Yeah.

682
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 2: I thought that was interesting too.

683
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 7: And you know, we talked about this yesterday and I

684
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 7: found it fascinating because it's not surprised that, you know,

685
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 7: Lou Holtz passing got a lot of coverage in the

686
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 7: state of Indiana because he was the head coach at

687
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 7: Notre Dame during their last national championship game. I was

688
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 7: really kind of surprised how much national news that this got.

689
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 7: And then I started thinking about it more and it

690
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 7: kind of made sense. Lou Holtz was really one of

691
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 7: the rare coaches, either in college or the pros that

692
00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 7: not only was outstanding at being a coach, but he

693
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 7: was extraordinarily personable. I mean, he was on ESPN for

694
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 7: years as a huge college football fan. College Football Final

695
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 7: with Rhys Davis and Lou Holtz and Mark May that

696
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 7: was appointment viewing. You would say, of you would watch

697
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,640
Speaker 7: college football day and after the last game on the

698
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 7: West Coast was over, around eleven thirty or midnight, they

699
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 7: would go into college football final and it was spectacular

700
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 7: and ESPN did that show for about a decade. Lou

701
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 7: Holtz obviously did a lot of motivational speaking, speaking at

702
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 7: corporate events. So you had a guy that was, you know,

703
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 7: an outstanding football coach, but also was so charismatic and

704
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 7: personable and just great to listen to talk to. You know,

705
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:38,479
Speaker 7: hear him talk and hear him tell stories.

706
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:42,480
Speaker 4: He did represent an older, older generation of leadership, right.

707
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 4: I mean, he emphasized discipline and personal responsibility and faith.

708
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 4: They were all very central to his coaching philosophy, values

709
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 4: that many conservatives are saying is fading in modern sports.

710
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 6: You had House Rudy Yakam.

711
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 4: He was memorializing Lou Holtz on the House floor in

712
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 4: Washington yesterday.

713
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 9: Mister speaker, yesterday, we lost a giant. Growing up in

714
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 9: South Bend, coach Holtz was more than a football coach.

715
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 2: He was a living legend.

716
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,360
Speaker 9: When I was young, my family took me to a

717
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 9: notre name hockey game and we were walking up late,

718
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 9: so there's nobody else around and appeering out from the shadows,

719
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:30,759
Speaker 9: you could see the silhouette of coach Holts. My father

720
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:32,960
Speaker 9: asked if he had a moment to say hello and

721
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 9: sign autographs for us.

722
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,400
Speaker 2: The coach could have just blown us off. We didn't

723
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:38,759
Speaker 2: do that.

724
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 9: He walked straight up to me, got down on one knee,

725
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 9: stuck out his hand, and said, Hi, I'm coach Holtz.

726
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 9: What's your name. That moment for me became a lifelong lesson.

727
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 9: It taught me that no matter who you are or

728
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:59,759
Speaker 9: where you go in life, you're never too important to

729
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:02,400
Speaker 9: say hello to someone that wants your time.

730
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:03,839
Speaker 6: Yeah. He went on to.

731
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:05,719
Speaker 4: Say that Holts was more than just a Hall of

732
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 4: FIM coach. He was someone who pushed people to reach

733
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,400
Speaker 4: their full potential. And he also remarked that Holds had

734
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 4: a huge impact on the South Bend community. Now somebody

735
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 4: who's had a big impact on the state of Indiana

736
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 4: a different college football coach, Yeah, Urt Signetti, and he

737
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 4: received Indiana's highest civilian honor, Sakam Award from Governor Mike Brown.

738
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 6: Yeah.

739
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:31,880
Speaker 7: This seems like an easy slam dug here for a

740
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 7: different sports analogy on this, but look, I mean, Kurt

741
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 7: Signetti is being praised nationally and certainly here in the

742
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,920
Speaker 7: state of Indiana. He got a brand new fat contract

743
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 7: from IU that's going to pay him about thirteen million

744
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:44,000
Speaker 7: dollars a year.

745
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 2: He deserves every single.

746
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 7: Award that the state has. I don't know if there's

747
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,400
Speaker 7: something else out there. I know there's Sagamore of the Wabash.

748
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 7: I'm sure the University of Indiana has specific awards. If

749
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:57,360
Speaker 7: there's an award out there in the state of Indiana,

750
00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 7: Kurt Signetti deserves it this year and I'm glad that

751
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:00,800
Speaker 7: he got the sac of Award.

752
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:05,800
Speaker 4: So Braun said that Signetti represented Hoosier's value of grit, perseverance,

753
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:09,839
Speaker 4: and no excuses, hard work on the national stage and

754
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,919
Speaker 4: he should be honored, like you mentioned, because he brought

755
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 4: national success. He represented our state well, and so we

756
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 4: definitely need to shine a spotlight on that and the

757
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,839
Speaker 4: values that he brought with him.

758
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:24,399
Speaker 6: Every member of the.

759
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,880
Speaker 4: Hoosier team did get a Sycamore of the Walbash award.

760
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 2: By the way, Oh that's fantastic. That's great, Casey.

761
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 7: I'm gonna remind you we're only about six weeks away

762
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:36,320
Speaker 7: from the NFL Draft in Pittsburgh, where Fernando Mendoza expected

763
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 7: to be drafted number one. So if you want me

764
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 7: to make those hotel reservations so that we can go

765
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,479
Speaker 7: to Keith berneg and see the NFL draft and Fernando live,

766
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 7: that's still a good possible. We've got plenty of time still.

767
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 7: We've still got time to make those travel plans.

768
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 6: All right, you're listening to Casey and Jim. It is

769
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 6: ninety three WIBC.

770
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 4: One.

771
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:04,239
Speaker 6: Several hosp
