1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,760 Speaker 1: Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:08,800 Speaker 1: is the number Cal in you very poor, Thanks for 3 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,120 Speaker 1: holding Cal, and welcome. 4 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:14,600 Speaker 2: Hi Jeff, Hi Cal. 5 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I watched it and I was in a room 6 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:26,279 Speaker 3: with other people that I couldn't change the channel during 7 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 3: the halftime, but I would have if I could have. 8 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 3: But I thought it was disgusting and frankly at the 9 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 3: halftime show it it sickened me. And I saw an 10 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 3: interview with him before the game, like last week, and 11 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 3: what I caught of it, I knew he was going 12 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 3: to be performing. What really I took away from it 13 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 3: was his his demeanor. He was kind of like a thug, 14 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 3: and he was saying, my coachure, my people, you know, 15 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 3: like I knew what we were in for right then 16 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 3: and there. And I mean, he wouldn't be where he 17 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 3: is without his place in America. And I do hold 18 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 3: him somewhat responsible just because he's a sick man in 19 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 3: my opinion, because he didn't have to take the job. 20 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 3: You know, he speaks volumes about his he's spiritually bankrupt, 21 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 3: and so is Goodell. 22 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 4: I don't know. 23 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 3: I have a hard time believing that it's all about money. 24 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 3: I think it goes beyond that, because how could you not. 25 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 3: You can be rich in love America, you know what 26 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 3: I mean. And the other thing I really wanted to 27 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 3: mention was the national anthem. They had a jazz musician 28 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 3: play the national anthem and sing it. It's not a 29 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 3: jazz song. It's a regal, stately beautiful you know, brings 30 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 3: me to teas when I hear even the music of 31 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 3: the national anthem in the traditional version, you know, in 32 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 3: a high school basketball team. It brings me to teas 33 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 3: in the high school basketball court. And they so much 34 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 3: just want to destroy America. It was so blatant to me, 35 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 3: was so disturbing. And yeah, the National Anthem was sung 36 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 3: so that you couldn't really focus on the words. It 37 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 3: was more about the jazzy tuned in you know, just 38 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 3: so underhanded, but yet a blatant slap in the face. 39 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 3: It was really really disturbing to me. 40 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 5: And Cal, if. 41 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 1: You don't mind me, I agree with you completely on 42 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: every point. Don't get me wrong. I just want to 43 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: go back to what you said at the beginning. What 44 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,839 Speaker 1: was it about the Super Bowl halftime show you said 45 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: that really turned your stomach, that disgusted you. Was it 46 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: bad Bunny singing in Spanish all time? Was it him 47 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: running around the stage with his Puerto Rican flag, acting 48 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: like he was being hunted down by ice when obviously 49 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: Puerto Rico is a territory of the United States. They're 50 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: part of the United States. So where are they going 51 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: to be deported to? What? Back to their back to 52 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: back to the United States? It was it the the 53 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:33,919 Speaker 1: sexual overtones of the dancers, all of the other flags 54 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: that were on stage. What was it that really turned 55 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: your stomach? I'm just curious. 56 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 3: It's pretty much all the above. 57 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 4: I'll be honest with you. 58 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 3: I didn't know. I don't know if I really made 59 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 3: the association of the with the ice things, the ice 60 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 3: points he was making. But what I what I did 61 00:03:55,320 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 3: get was the flag, the distasteful, you know, no respect 62 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 3: in it. And that's why I say he's a sick man. 63 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 6: He's a sick guy. 64 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 3: They got a sick guy to do a sick thing 65 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 3: and spiritually sick and well he's. 66 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 1: He's gender fluid. This is I'm just this is how 67 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: he describes himself. He's gender fluid. Sometimes he's into men, 68 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 1: sometimes he's into women. I'm just going by what he says. 69 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 1: Sometimes he's into both at the same time. He paints 70 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: his nails. He likes the color Isn't you know the 71 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: way women like the polish and color of their nails. 72 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: He likes the color is nails. And he hates the 73 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 1: United States. He really hates. Not only does he hate 74 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: Trump that goes without saying and reviles Ice, but he 75 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: hates the United States. And what I don't get is 76 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: and it's not just him, it's all of these anti 77 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: I left this at the Grammys. Many of them, by 78 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:08,919 Speaker 1: the way, from foreign countries and they come to the 79 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:14,239 Speaker 1: United States and they make untold amounts of money. Okay, 80 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: you can text the cooner man seven zero four seven 81 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: zero seven zero four seven zero. This is from six 82 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 1: TOZH three And Man, I think, does he hit the 83 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 1: nail on the header? The Texter hits the nail on 84 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: the head, Jeff. The anti American left and the globalists 85 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: have long wanted to mount football's head on the wall 86 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: because it's a purely American sport and it's very masculine 87 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 1: at its core. A good number of years ago, when 88 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: the NFL went woke and very anti American by supporting 89 00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter and colon Kaepernick take a knee. I 90 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:05,119 Speaker 1: realized the Left were going to get a win either way. 91 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: Either they were finally going to destroy football by erasing 92 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 1: its fan base, or they would get fans to compromise 93 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: their principles and put their love of the sport over 94 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: their love of their country. I was unwilling to do that. 95 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: I walked away from watching the NFL in Trump's first term, 96 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: and I never looked back. Just like quitting smoking or drinking, 97 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: I simply quit the habit. And as much as I 98 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 1: enjoyed watching football, it no longer rules my Sundays, and 99 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 1: I really don't miss it, and I sure don't miss 100 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: being spit on by the people who run it. I 101 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 1: love America and I love watching football, but I have 102 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: absolutely no love anymore for the NFL and its anti 103 00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: American agenda. And I've just got to ask, thank you this, Jeff. 104 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: If Big Bunny, actually I think it's Bad Bunny. But anyway, 105 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: if Bad Bunny doesn't speak English, then why is this 106 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: stupid stage name in English? Last time, you neither bad 107 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: or Bunny were Spanish words. Just saying I mean, really, 108 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: I gotta say bravo, bravo, I mean you you took 109 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: his hide off. You're completely right. You know, he doesn't 110 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: speak English except for his name, so he can market 111 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: himself in the United States. You phony, you fraud you 112 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. 113 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: Mark in Lowell, Thanks for holding Mark and welcome. 114 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 4: Yeah. 115 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 5: I just wanted I just wanted to make a few points, 116 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 5: and most of it. 117 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 7: Is around Chris's beginning comments about the bite in the bark. 118 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 7: In the United States, we have a I'm an employer 119 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 7: back before pre you know, pre COVID, and I had 120 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 7: to have I nines for each individual that I hired, and. 121 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 5: They had to show that they had a Social Security 122 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 5: card and a you know, valid ID. 123 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 8: And basically what I did is, you know, I took 124 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 8: that information, took pictures of it, and attached it to 125 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 8: the document because we didn't have to go verify, we 126 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 8: just had to collect the data. 127 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 5: And at that time I was under the impression that 128 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 5: there was a ten thousand dollars fine. I found out 129 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 5: since then that the I nine is still in place 130 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 5: and the fees are from two hundred and eighty dollars 131 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 5: to two thousand and eighty dollars for each clerical error 132 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 5: and they and they say, if there's too many. 133 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 8: Undocumented people involved, then it becomes a criminal situation for 134 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 8: the employer. Now, our friend Big Bunny, Bad Bunny, wherever 135 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 8: the hell. 136 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 9: His name is is, has a crew of over hundreds 137 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 9: of hundreds of people that had to destage and restage 138 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 9: the thing. 139 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 8: To me, the bite would be to investigate Big Bunny 140 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 8: and find out who he employed, and find out who 141 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 8: they employed, and just go down the thing and also 142 00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 8: put NFL into the spotlight just for the sake. 143 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 5: Of one thing, one saying, only put. 144 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:06,959 Speaker 2: A bite to the bark. 145 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 5: I hope Trump and family are listening. 146 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: Mark, I love it.

But I'm telling you that's 174 00:11:56,280 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 1: a big operation and this guy is I guarantee you 175 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: hiring illegals. I think there's no question. So, I mean, 176 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 1: you know, it's time for Trump to start cracking down. 177 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: And I just think it's time for the owners in 178 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: the NFL to tell Roger Goodell, you don't work you 179 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 1: know you work for us, We don't work for you. 180 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: So from now on, can we stop having halftime shows 181 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 1: that are so freaking controversial and divisive? Like all you're 182 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: doing is damaging the brand and insulting the fans who 183 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 1: are the consumers. I've never seen a business run like this. 184 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,839 Speaker 1: I have to be brutally honest with you, where they 185 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: go out of their way to give the fans, I 186 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: either customers the middle finger, like I just and it's 187 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: it's a sport. It's not as if they're running a 188 00:12:55,280 --> 00:13:00,080 Speaker 1: political party. They're running a political party. Okay, I understand you. 189 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: You know you're opposed to the police. You want to 190 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: defund the police. You support you know, Black Lives Matter, 191 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: and you know this anti white, anti Semitic movement. You're 192 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 1: into racial theory and racialism, and you know now you're 193 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 1: into abolishing ice and protecting and coddling every single illegal alien. 194 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 1: But you're a sports organization man like and apparently you 195 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: know all American that you're at least according to the ratings. 196 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: You know, the eyeballs that people will watch on a Sunday, 197 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: you're the national sport time. Now you're the national sport. 198 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: You're not America's national pastime. So why why would you 199 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: go out of your way to keep poking us in 200 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: the eye. It's just it makes no sense. And by 201 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 1: the way, if he thinks that somehow it's gaining him support, 202 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: say in Mexico, for a team in Mexico, it doesn't. 203 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 1: The only way Mexico is gonna be able to put 204 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: a team and have a real fan base is if 205 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: they enjoy the game. You know, they're not there for 206 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: the singing. They're there for the quality of the game. 207 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: So what you got to care about is the quality 208 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: on the field. So anyway I look at it, it's stupid, stupid, stupid, 209 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: And you know the expression, you go woke, you go broke. 210 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: They keep doing this, I'm telling you they're gonna go broke. 211 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 1: But I love your suggestion. I would everify this guy. 212 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: I would investigate his employees, and you're gonna find a 213 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: lot of illegals, and then you just find them and 214 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: find them and find them and keep finding them and 215 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: let him know there are consequences to his actions. Uh, 216 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: great call, great call, Thank you, Mark six one seven 217 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: two six six sixty eight sixty eight. How much time left, Mike? 218 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: I was gonna squeeze one more in? Okay, super quick reset. 219 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: I want to continue to take calls. I will pivot 220 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: to the Olympics, I promise, because there's some major developments 221 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: the same thing woke anti ice leftism. Okay, did you 222 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: watch the halftime show, the Super Bowl halftime show? I didn't. 223 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: I changed the channel to TBN and watched the Turning 224 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: Point USA halftime show with Kid Rock and among others. 225 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: It was very good, very very good. Some of the 226 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: songs were actually quite moving, very powerful. 227 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 4: Uh. 228 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: The theme was God, Family, Country, and that showed in 229 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: the songs that they sang. It was a very patriotic 230 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: half hour to me, clearly, infinitely better than the Drek 231 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: the Guard that was displayed by Bad Bunny, who did 232 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: not speak a word of English in any song that 233 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: he sang, not a single word of English. And so 234 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: my question to you is it offensive? Is it wrong 235 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: at a seminal cultural event like the super Bowl, the 236 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: biggest game of the year to be singing in a 237 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: language that most of the long time diehard fans have 238 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: no clue, have no understanding what's being sung or what's 239 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: being said. Never mind the anti ICE messaging, never mind 240 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: you know, the Ice bashing, or him constantly waving the 241 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: Puerto Rican flag and pretending that he's now being accosted 242 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 1: by Ice, as if ICE wants to persecute and deport 243 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: Puerto Ricans. Puerto Rico is a territory of the United States. 244 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 1: They can't be deported because they're part of America. So 245 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 1: he's even lying on top of everything else, or he's 246 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 1: so ignorant he doesn't realize that Puerto Ricans aren't illegals. 247 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: I don't know which is I don't know, I don't 248 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 1: know which it is. But what and what you know? 249 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 1: Did you watch the halftime show? Were you offended that 250 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: it was Spanish only that it had very strong sexual 251 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: overtones including men grinding, uh you know, and very scantily 252 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 1: clad some of the female dancers, and the anti Ice 253 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 1: abolish ICE messaging. I'm just curious six one seven two 254 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: six six sixty eight sixty eight And are you done 255 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: with the NFL?

I said, you know what, 262 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 10: I think Jeff perpitulated because he should have told his audience. 263 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:24,919 Speaker 1: Not even watching. 264 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 4: Why why have we give him that much credit? 265 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 10: I mean, if they see their viewership drop as far 266 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 10: as a boycott, no one's watching it, then they got 267 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 10: to realize it's not it's not the game, it's the 268 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 10: halftime show. You go back to what was it Janet 269 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 10: Jackson and that that that kuldfuffle, and now you got 270 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 10: this guy, I mean not even a guy.

If he's got kids watching, this is nonsense, 274 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 10: This sexual perversion. I mean, they're trying to normalize it 275 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 10: and it's not right. But then it goes Now we 276 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 10: were talking about uh, Roger Goodell want to turn them 277 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 10: to the a n F I f L.

They are not going to they are 282 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 10: not going to be well well received. And I got 283 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 10: you know, you'll get those few estus and that that. Oh, 284 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 10: they just want to go to the game just because 285 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 10: it's the game. But they don't care about those black players. 286 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 10: Chinese don't care about black people whatsoever. 287 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 2: Let me tell you that's a fact. 288 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 4: They are racist. 289 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I promise, I'm gonna let you finish. 290 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 2: Uh. 291 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: I just want to stop you because what you're saying 292 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 1: is so true. And most Americans have no clue, especially 293 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: these woke idiots that keep protesting the United States or 294 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 1: Ice or Trump or China. It's not even close. Is 295 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: one of the most racist countries on the face of 296 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: the earth. They revile blacks, they hate blacks. They don't 297 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,160 Speaker 1: hire them, they don't want to serve them, they don't 298 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: want them in their country. They can't stand them. When 299 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: African Americans or Black Americans say on a business trip 300 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 1: or whatever, or even in a cultural event, when they 301 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: have to go to China, they're fine inside, say the village, right, 302 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 1: the sporting event complex. Yeah, then they're fine. Then the 303 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: Chinese will smile and be polite. But once you say 304 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,199 Speaker 1: you just want to go out into say Shanghai or 305 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: Beijang or you know, just on your own, just take 306 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:51,360 Speaker 1: a look, they get spit on. The worst looks imaginable. 307 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: They'll be avoided like they're like they're don't know, they're lepers. 308 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 1: Oftentimes they'll say they they won't even be served.

Maybe a bad connection, Okay. 335 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,640 Speaker 1: David in Brookline, thanks for holding David, and. 336 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 6: Welcome warning Jeff from the People's Republic, where you're told 337 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,639 Speaker 6: to ignore the Arctic conditions and the eight feet of 338 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 6: ice on the side of the road freezing yourself when 339 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,719 Speaker 6: you go outside, because global warming is a threat. 340 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 2: The biggest threat Jeff. 341 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 1: I mean, look at that warming out there. Uh, David, 342 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: I know, can I get any warmer out there? 343 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 2: It? 344 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 6: Actually put on my bathing suit and take a walk. 345 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 11: Around enjoy the sunshine, Jeff. As usual, I want to 346 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 11: make superficial points. I can't make anything deep, but I'll 347 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 11: ask you a rhetorical question. Do you know Benito Antonio 348 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 11: Martinez or Casio? 349 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: Well, apparently that's bad bunny, Okay. 350 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 6: I was just on a side note wondering if he 351 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 6: could be second cousins to Sandy Cortes or Casio. 352 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 2: That was my first question. 353 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 6: But more to the point, I believe it was the 354 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,919 Speaker 6: twenty twenty one Super Bowl. They had j Lo and Shakira, 355 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 6: two beautiful women, and like many men, I love looking 356 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 6: at beautiful women, and you know, and if they're gonna 357 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 6: be scantily dressed, I love that too, But it doesn't 358 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 6: belong on TV with kids watching, as you pointed out, cringeworthy. 359 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 6: So guess who was on the stage with them, gyrating 360 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 6: and contorting and whatever else. 361 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 2: Benito. 362 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 6: And if you go back and look at it, that's 363 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 6: Benito Antonio Martinez. So this is not the first go 364 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 6: around for Roger Goodell. I mean with this particular performer. 365 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 6: My second point you kind of made earlier, Goddell only 366 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 6: does what the owners want, and Jeff, I'm sorry they 367 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 6: as you pointed out, an earlier caller said, she thinks 368 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 6: it's more than money. It's not the only thing they 369 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 6: care about the owners is money. 370 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:24,120 Speaker 2: They're all hypocrites. 371 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 6: And I'll give you a final example, for. 372 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 2: Example, the owner of the Patriots. 373 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 6: When he makes the comments and I'm paraphrasing, it's all 374 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 6: about the fans, it's all about the people. Well, once 375 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 6: in a while, I'll still go to a game, which 376 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,439 Speaker 6: even though I when they started kneeling, I swore to 377 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 6: myself I'd never go back. But buy a bottle of 378 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 6: water for five dollars, What does that cost. 379 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:52,640 Speaker 2: Them fifty cents? Try to get a beer nine dollars. 380 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 6: Don't tell me it's all about the fans. It's all 381 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 6: about the money. 382 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 2: They don't care. 383 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 6: Jeff, Roger Dell doesn't make any decisions. 384 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,440 Speaker 2: He's a front man. He's a pimp. Uh and and 385 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:06,880 Speaker 2: and the. 386 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 6: Money he gets, that's it's it's insane. You're right, but 387 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:16,120 Speaker 6: they don't care. So that's basically all I wanted to say. 388 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,120 Speaker 6: I didn't watch it. I did what you did. I 389 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 6: tuned in kid rock. I don't even like country music. 390 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 6: I decided from now on, if I want to watch 391 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 6: football and I'm going to stick around for halftime, it's 392 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 6: a good time to maybe, you know, go make some nachos, 393 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 6: go for a walk. But I did not watch that 394 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 6: halftime show, David. 395 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 1: I just want to circle back to something you said earlier. 396 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: You know you're right. Look, money is a key There's 397 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 1: no question money is a key factor. Just it's all 398 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,880 Speaker 1: about money, and they love the money. But why then 399 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:57,400 Speaker 1: slap the face of so many fans if it's all 400 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 1: about money. Let me just give you an example. I'm 401 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: criticizing them. It's just good business. McDonald's. Okay, why does 402 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 1: McDonald's keep on chugging along? Whatever you think of the food. 403 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 1: But I'm just saying why because if you notice, McDonald's 404 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 1: doesn't really get political. Why because they're like, we're here 405 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: to serve cheeseburgers, big Max, chicken, McNuggets, you know whatever. 406 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 1: We're here in the fast food business and your money 407 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 1: is green and that's all we care about. Republican Democrat, 408 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: independent who cares? So we don't want to offend our customers, 409 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 1: so they won't go out of their way to embrace 410 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 1: crazy radical causes. They just stay quiet. We're in the 411 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 1: burger business, the fast food business. Stay in our lane, 412 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: and for the most part, they've remained non political. And 413 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: people go and they don't boycott McDonald's. Why was the 414 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 1: why does the NFL And you mentioned the kneeling cole 415 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 1: and crapper and Black Lives Matter, disrespecting our flag, disrespecting 416 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 1: our national anthem, disrespecting those who fought and died for 417 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 1: our country. Now getting behind this anti ice movement and 418 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: abolish ice and let's protect and caddle every single illegal alien. 419 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 1: And you mentioned also the you know, the scantily clad 420 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 1: sexualized performers. So it's always tish, tish, slap on the face, 421 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: slap on the face, slap on the face. They keep 422 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: spitting in the face of Middle America. Are they not 423 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: afraid that Middle America may eventually turn its back? And 424 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 1: if Middle America turns its back, it's over for the NFL. 425 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 1: In other words, if they stop buying the tickets, the 426 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: nine dollars beers, you know, watching the games, the NFL 427 00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: is cooked. Like Mike, this is what I don't understand 428 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 1: from a money making point of view, it's bad business. 429 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 1: So why do they keep doing it? 430 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 6: David, You've already answered it earlier, but I'm gonna give 431 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 6: you a rhetorical answer and then one or two other 432 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 6: points on that. A because they can. Number two, as 433 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 6: you said, people are addicted to football. Circling back to McDonald's, 434 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 6: it's already globalized. They want the NFL globalized. They'll keep 435 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 6: pushing a term that you use all the time, drunken 436 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 6: with power and money. I'll give you one other side note, 437 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 6: and it might seem frivolous, but you'll get the point 438 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 6: when I go if you go to a Patriots game, 439 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 6: and you know, I was never like big on the cheerleaders, 440 00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 6: but in the last couple of years, and there's always 441 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 6: been throughout history of football male cheerleaders, but not the 442 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 6: way the Patriots and a few other teams are doing it. 443 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 6: They've got guys dancing like girls with pom poms. I mean, 444 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 6: I know for a fact that a lot of people 445 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 6: don't like it, but they do it because they can 446 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 6: get away with it. And as you pointed out earlier 447 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:28,239 Speaker 6: in the show, you know, in regards to the halftime show, sexualizing, 448 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 6: you know, a different gender or whatever you want to 449 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 6: call it. So I know, I'm not putting a I'm 450 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 6: not putting a fine point on it. 451 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 2: They do it because they. 452 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 6: Can, because many of them are tied to the globalists themselves, 453 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 6: and that's what they're doing. 454 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 2: I don't think there's any one answer, but it is. 455 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,719 Speaker 6: All about the bottom line and how they perceive. I mean, 456 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 6: you take a billionaire, a frustrated billionaire wants to be 457 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 6: a trillionaire, and the only way you can do that 458 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 6: is squeeze the money out of the middle class and 459 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 6: get and globalize your product. 460 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: Well, they're definitely squeezing money out of us, because going 461 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: to a game now is outrageously expensive. I mean, the 462 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: ticket prices are, I mean, they're honestly, they're obscene. They're obscene, 463 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: and they're aggressively now trying to export this to you know, 464 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: as I said to Mexico to Europe, they really want China, 465 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 1: that one point five billion market. They want China so 466 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: bad they can taste it and so and they want 467 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 1: to eventually destroy the American nature of football. You know, 468 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 1: it's such a uniquely American game, and you can see 469 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: that they're diluting it and diluting it and diluting it. 470 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 1: And part of that dilution is to have halftime shows 471 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: where nothing is in English, nothing, and it's not even 472 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 1: that it's pro Spanish. That's I hope people understand that 473 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: it could be Arabic, it could be Chinese, it could 474 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: be Ukrainian. It doesn't matter as long as it's not English, 475 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: because you're the americanizing the Super Bowl, and that's ultimately 476 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: what they want. David, thank you very much for that call. 477 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 1: Is always really good call. Agree, disagree. I'm just giving 478 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: you my honest opinion. You know, if you think I'm wrong, 479 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 1: please let me know. Six one seven two six six 480 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 1: sixty eight sixty eight. Dan in New Hampshire. Thanks for 481 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: holding Dan and welcome. 482 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 4: Thanks for taking the call, Jeff, my pleasure. Then, yeah, 483 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 4: we watched it. We watched it, but the only really 484 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 4: one that really enjoyed the show was my beagle. I 485 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 4: have to say that I kind of urged the dog 486 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 4: excuse me by saying dead Bunny, Dead Bunny, because we 487 00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 4: both like the rabbit Hunt. So every time I said, Daddy, 488 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 4: jump up, run towards the TV set. Take a look 489 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 4: at the TV set. Figure out I was lying, and 490 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 4: then he went back and laid down, so I couldn't 491 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 4: pull the dead bunny joke on him anymore. But to 492 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 4: get back to the show, truthfully, you know, when they 493 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 4: sang the patriotic songs, the national anthem, they didn't bring 494 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 4: a tear to my eye. They didn't make me want 495 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 4: to stand up. They it basically showed no strength. It 496 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 4: was kind of a limp noodle demonstration of our patriotism. 497 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 4: And the only thing that looked strong is when the 498 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 4: Jets and the B one and the B two went over, 499 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 4: and that was powerful. But other than that, there was 500 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 4: just too much twerking, too much shaken of the butts. 501 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:53,239 Speaker 4: Everybody in our room, we all looked around. So now 502 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 4: the music's kind of catchy, but no one could understand 503 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 4: aware of it. So it really was meaningful because we 504 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 4: just didn't understand it. And that's you know, that game 505 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 4: is supposed to represent masculinity, that smash mouth football. That 506 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 4: was a tough game and it just didn't come across 507 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 4: with the entertainment comparative to what we were watching. And 508 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 4: I was just disappointed over that. 509 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 1: You know, It's I gotta say, Dan, you've really put 510 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:32,840 Speaker 1: your finger on something that I don't think anyone's commented 511 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,239 Speaker 1: on or just maybe they've touched on it, but you 512 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: really went deeper into it. 513 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 2: You know. 514 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 1: One of the things I think I could be wrong. 515 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: You may disagree with me. I think one of the 516 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 1: reasons why football has this enduring popularity, and I say, 517 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,919 Speaker 1: you know, many are addicted to football. I think it's 518 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 1: really one of the last places left in American life. 519 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: The way you phrased it, it's a masculine sport. Very 520 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:02,359 Speaker 1: few things are for men anymore. And I'm not saying 521 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 1: women can't watch it or women can't enjoy it, because obviously, hey, 522 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,880 Speaker 1: my wife watched it. She likes football. She's a big 523 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: fan of Drake May and she's been watching many games 524 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: this season. She and Ashton actually watch it more than 525 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:17,279 Speaker 1: I do. Ashton's a big fan. Grace has now really 526 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 1: gotten into it. So, yeah, there are many women who 527 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 1: watch it and you know, and enjoy it. But it's 528 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 1: really a man's game, right, And you're right. It's power, 529 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 1: it's speed, it's got that warrior ethos, it's you know, 530 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:40,360 Speaker 1: rugged individualism, you know, teamwork, camaraderie. It's just a very 531 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 1: masculine male game. It's one of the few places left 532 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 1: where a man can really be a man, especially an 533 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 1: alpha male, and so so you would think that the 534 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 1: music would be commensurate to the players on the field, 535 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: to the nature of the sport, but in fact they 536 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:05,800 Speaker 1: keep trying to feminize the sport and feminize the music 537 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 1: of the sport, and in some ways bad Bunny. Yes 538 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: it's globalization. Yes there's no English, so it's the americanization, 539 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 1: there's no question. But also, you know, he's very gender fluid. 540 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:24,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not kidding, really, that's part of a shtick. 541 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 1: One day he's a man, next day he's a woman. 542 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 1: He has a boyfriend and he has a girlfriend, and 543 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 1: he has both, I'm not kidding. Some days he says 544 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: he's not sure, he's like neither or he's both. He 545 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:42,319 Speaker 1: likes to do his nails, get his nails all colored up, so, 546 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 1: you know, And and increasingly they have female performers. Not 547 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 1: that I have anything against female performers, obviously, but it's 548 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: not you know, you watch the halftime show Turning Point USA, 549 00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: and whether it's kid rock, whether it's those country music singers, 550 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 1: those were masculine songs. You know, I mean, some of 551 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: them were very religious, and they talked about Jesus, and 552 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 1: you know what Jesus means to them and God means 553 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:18,280 Speaker 1: to them. But those were powerful, strong, male, masculine songs.
