1 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 1: This is America's Truncking Network with Kevin Gordon. 2 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 2: Wilholm a boar and thanks for tuning in on this 3 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:22,639 Speaker 2: Fat Tuesday morning. You know, this is Marty Gras and 4 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 2: Marty Gras is French for Fat Tuesday. Marty means Tuesday 5 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,840 Speaker 2: and then Gras means fat, so again they flip them 6 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:31,319 Speaker 2: around and. 7 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 3: The way translations are. 8 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 2: But it is Marty Gras Fat Tuesday, the day before 9 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 2: Ash Wednesday, when Christian celebration and the lead up to 10 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:47,239 Speaker 2: Lent to Easter. And it's weird that the timing of 11 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 2: it this year seems to be it is late and 12 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 2: then it's late also, And it's weird because President's Day 13 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 2: was yesterday. Now President's Day generally, well it was kind 14 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 2: of a combination because there used to be back in 15 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 2: the day there used to be Lincoln's birthday and George 16 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 2: Washington's birthday that were celebrated. One was Lincoln was on 17 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 2: the twelfth and then Washington was on the twenty second. 18 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 2: Well then with all the different you know, other holidays 19 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 2: that have been added Martin Luther King, Junior Veterans Day 20 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 2: and some of these others and kind of jumble those 21 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 2: around to try to combine them, and so it became 22 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 2: President's Day, and generally it fell between closer to the 23 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 2: twenty second, somewhere between the twelfth and the twenty second. 24 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,960 Speaker 2: But with the way I guess the configuration this year, 25 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 2: trying to get it close to a weekend, the sixteenth 26 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 2: just seems really early. It seems to me it's usually 27 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 2: around the twentieth or something like that. But again kind 28 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 2: of throwing things off, and all weekend long, I'm thinking, 29 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 2: you know, they're talking about these President's Day sales and 30 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 2: I'm like, well, that isn't for another week, is it. 31 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 2: And then I'm looking into it, and yeah, of course 32 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 2: President's Day yesterday, national holiday and all that. Of course 33 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 2: also being the first day of or the last day 34 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 2: before Lent, the Fat Tuesday. And it's interesting digging into 35 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 2: how these different things come about. And one of the 36 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 2: things I've always found very interesting was how beer falls 37 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 2: into the Lent Lent and celebration or the Lenton lead 38 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 2: up to Easter. And the fact was that back then 39 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 2: in the day and it is supposed to be a 40 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 2: period of fasting where and people that really go into 41 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 2: you know, go in a whole hog on this where 42 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 2: they fast during the the you only have one meal 43 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 2: a day, and so you fast throughout the entire day 44 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 2: and then have the one big meal. Now, back in 45 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 2: Germany with the monks and everything, they kind of cheated 46 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 2: a little bit, so they brewed the beer with a 47 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 2: little bit more malt to it. So it was kind 48 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 2: of like what we used to refer to it when 49 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 2: I was in college as meal and a bottle, because 50 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 2: it does have a lot more calories and a lot 51 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 2: more flavor to it, and they call it liquid bread now. 52 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 3: Bock beer historically spelled. 53 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 2: And pronounced as bach as in the composer, is the 54 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 2: name often German town of ein came from the town 55 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,239 Speaker 2: of German, the German town of Einbeck or a strong 56 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 2: dark logger style, originally in the fourteenth century. When the 57 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 2: style moved to Munich in the seventeenth century, Bavarian accent 58 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 2: shifted the pronunciation from Einbach to Einbach, meaning literally a 59 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 2: billy goat instead of the ein I'm sorry, ein Beck 60 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 2: instead of Einbeck to Einbach, and so the meaning of 61 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 2: ein Beech is billy goat. 62 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 3: And so what the label when. 63 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 2: You see bach beer there is generally a goat on 64 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 2: which is kind of a visual pond having to do 65 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 2: referring back to when the built, when the beer was 66 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 2: mispronounced because of the heavy accents and the way things 67 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 2: you know, when we see you here in the United States, 68 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 2: certain things that evolved because of the accents from the 69 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 2: different areas, things take on a certain meaning or certain name, 70 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 2: which it was a lot different again, began in Iinebeck 71 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 2: lower Saxony, was later adopted by Munich. The name evolution 72 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 2: again a heavy Buffarian accent. Bach translates to goat, and 73 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 2: so this whole meal and a bottle type of thing 74 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 2: came about as a result of kind of a little 75 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 2: bit of cheating as far as if you're doing the fasting, 76 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 2: well this way, if you drink the beer, it's got 77 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 2: more malt, it's got more calories that kind of carry 78 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 2: you through the day as opposed to being starving there 79 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 2: at night and so on. So it's always interesting to 80 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 2: go back into these things, dig into how they come about, 81 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 2: and really in terms of beer, in my I don't 82 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,600 Speaker 2: drink a whole lot, maybe have two or three beers 83 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 2: a year, but I usually tend to go more towards 84 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,359 Speaker 2: the darker beer because I think they have just a 85 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,839 Speaker 2: lot more rich and a little bit more flavor to 86 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,600 Speaker 2: them rather than the regular Logger beers. 87 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 3: Or some of that kind of stuff. 88 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 2: So again, it's kind of an interesting derivation on that 89 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 2: getting ready on Fat Tuesday, and of course going into 90 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 2: the Lentin season. So anyway, big weekend this past weekend 91 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 2: the Daytona five hundred. Again, I've always been surprised or 92 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 2: kind of kind of intrigued by the Daytona five hundred 93 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 2: because it winds up it is the biggest stock car race. 94 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 3: Of the year. 95 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 2: And generally, when you have the biggest thing of anything 96 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 2: in sports, it's generally the final game the championship season, 97 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 2: or the Super Bowl, or the World Series, or the 98 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 2: NBA Finals, the world you know, all that kind of stuff. 99 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 2: But this is actually the beginning of the racing season. 100 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 2: So the biggest day in racing is the first day, 101 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 2: and it's the one that's the most popular and the 102 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 2: one that people really glom onto. So it's interesting that 103 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 2: it's not the championship series, it's not the end of 104 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 2: the season, it's the beginning of the season. And it 105 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 2: was an extremely exciting race. I have to admit, I'm 106 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 2: not a big NASCAR I'm not a big racing fan. 107 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 2: I'm a casual observer. I'll watch some of the bigger races. 108 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 2: I'm not into every one of the individual races, but 109 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 2: the big races like Daytona five hundred in Indianapolis five hundred, 110 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 2: I will watch and I get a kick out of. 111 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 2: You know, the more and more I watch it, the 112 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 2: more I learn about it, the more appreciation I have 113 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 2: for it. But it was an exciting finish. It was 114 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 2: just a crazy race in terms of how things happen, 115 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 2: how things came about out you go back to the beginning, 116 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 2: I mean towards the beginning of the race, there was 117 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 2: the the lead changed hands. Now this is interesting. The 118 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 2: lead change hand a record twenty five different drivers. 119 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 3: Sixty five times. 120 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 2: During that race, Smith took the first stage win at 121 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 2: the first of his career. 122 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 3: Let's see who else. 123 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 2: Russy Wallace won the second round or the second under 124 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 2: caution for the twenty car accident and what was weird 125 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 2: seven cars in the seven laps left in the second 126 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 2: stage contact between number forty Chevrolet of Justin Algeier and 127 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 2: number eleven Toyota. Three time Daytona winner Hamlin ignited a 128 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 2: twenty car wreck. And when you were watching this thing 129 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 2: and the seven laps to go, and all these guys 130 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 2: are in there tight and they're all trying to get 131 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 2: for position, and then all of a sudden, one gets 132 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 2: out of whack and all of a sudden, twenty cars 133 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 2: are out of the race simply because of one accident. 134 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 2: The final two laps produce a more plot twists in 135 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 2: terms of what was going on and so on. Driver 136 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 2: Carson Hassiver led the white flag when it turned you know, 137 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 2: when they went to the final lap, and what was 138 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 2: weird is that in turn one he fell out of 139 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 2: the lead pack taking and had an accident, taking Eric Jones, 140 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 2: Michael McDowell with him. Elliott took control and appeared ready 141 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 2: for his first Crown Jewel race before Reddick gained the 142 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 2: momentum at the very end. And it was amazing to 143 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 2: see how this transpired and the wreck happened. It was 144 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 2: a matter of, you know, listen to get to the 145 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 2: comments from the people themselves, because that better them explaining 146 00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 2: what happened than me. Because the way this happened and 147 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 2: Carson Jose, Eric Jones, Ricks, Ricky Steinhaus, Chase Elliott and 148 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 2: Tyler Robert Reddick all led on the final lap, if 149 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 2: not only for like a brief second here or brief 150 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 2: second there, because of the way the positioning was. Elliott 151 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 2: led most of the two hundredth lap at Daytona International Speedway, 152 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 2: inheriting the lead after Josover and Jones collided entering turn 153 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 2: one of the final lap. I mean, here you are, 154 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 2: after one ninety nine laps. You're in the final lap, 155 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 2: and you've got a chance to possibly win the Daytona 156 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 2: five hundred and because of a weird accident, all of 157 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 2: a sudden, three four other drivers are taken out in 158 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 2: one accident, and it was weird, Elliott said. 159 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 3: He said he ran most of the race. 160 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 2: Elliott led most of the twentieth two hundredth lap International Speedway, 161 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 2: inheriting the lead, and he said, I'm in the lead, 162 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 2: and I'm thinking, well, I can't take this for granted. 163 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 2: I'm gonna as He's says, I'm not the type of 164 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 2: person that ever lets myself get there in the first place, 165 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 2: so I know it wasn't over. 166 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 3: But then there was the accident. Steinhaus. 167 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 2: Let me see when I think they six and thirty 168 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 2: five got together the seas parted and I thought, okay, cool, 169 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 2: I'm going to swing on through and pass in through there. 170 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 2: Then he was caught kind of surprise. He didn't see 171 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 2: the number forty five car, and then they wound up 172 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 2: having the accident that led to the overall and the 173 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 2: championship going to Tyler Redick. We'll pick this up coming up. 174 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 2: I'm Kevin Gordon, America's Trucking Network, seven hundred WLW. I'm 175 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 2: Kevin Gordon, America's Trucking Network, seven hundred WLW. Speaking a 176 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 2: little bit more of Daytona five hundred. It was weird 177 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 2: again how the final lamp, and it was exciting to watch. 178 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,559 Speaker 2: I got admit it was seeing the positioning and seeing 179 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,839 Speaker 2: the last second pull around and trying to get to 180 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 2: the outside lane to pa ask somebody and what was 181 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 2: going on. Brad Koslowski was one of the people that 182 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 2: was featured at the end talking about the race itself. Now, 183 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:14,439 Speaker 2: of course he's now for seventeen in the race, his 184 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 2: attempts to win. Of course, he wasn't expected to actually 185 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 2: be there because he was recovering from a broken leg. 186 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, broke his right femur in 187 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 2: December while on vacation with his family, and they said 188 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 2: they didn't expect him to actually race, and about a 189 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,319 Speaker 2: week before his leg felt pretty good, wasn't going to 190 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 2: get there. Just six days before the race, he was 191 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 2: actually cleared to actually drive and actually, you know, according 192 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 2: to the doctors, be able to race. Left Lake felt 193 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 2: good despite the crash, he said, I felt. 194 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 3: Good just being in position, for sure. 195 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 2: You know, at the end, it's a roll of the 196 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 2: dice and who's going to wreck who, and who's going 197 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 2: to make the good moves and the bad moves, and 198 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 2: the dice just didn't fall our way. The thirty five 199 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 2: just wrecked me. I've nowhere for no reason. 200 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 3: He said. 201 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,839 Speaker 2: It was one of the dumbest things I've ever seen. 202 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 2: He had no chance of blocking my run. I had 203 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 2: a huge run. I don't know if I could have 204 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 2: gotten the forty five, which was Reddick, and or forty seven, 205 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 2: which was Stenhouse, and I would have been like to 206 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 2: find out because the run was fast, and so it's like, 207 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 2: you know, when you're closed out at the end and 208 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,479 Speaker 2: you are involved in an accident which wasn't your fault, 209 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 2: you kind of wonder, gosh, what would have happened. Could 210 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 2: I have overtaken those cars? Could I have overdone you know, 211 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,719 Speaker 2: could I have done this? And it's probably pretty much 212 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 2: the same thing at any other sport. You know, if 213 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 2: this block had gone this particular way, could or if 214 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 2: I had to move left instead of right, could I 215 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 2: have hit the hole better and actually scored or gotten 216 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 2: that extra yard. 217 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 3: Or something along those lines. 218 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: So it's always you know, kind of after game after, 219 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 2: you know, the the after review that you look at 220 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 2: things and think, gosh, what can we do differently? 221 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 3: Even but you know in. 222 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 2: Sports, football, basketball, in any of them, you never have 223 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 2: quite the same situation. Again, in this case, you don't 224 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,680 Speaker 2: know who's going to be in the race, how they're 225 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 2: going to try to block you, or any of that 226 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 2: sort of stuff. And what was interesting is some of 227 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 2: the chatter afterwards. Herbs was instructed by spotter who's Joe 228 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 2: Campbell to move to high to block Koslowski's run, but 229 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 2: the timing went wrong, either delivered too late or not 230 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 2: accounting for Koslowski's rush of speed, because as the guy 231 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:50,079 Speaker 2: moved up into the upper the higher on the track 232 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 2: to try to block him, all of a sudden, Koslowski 233 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 2: was trying to accelerate at that point in time to 234 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 2: try to make up some ground, and when somebody pulls 235 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 2: in front of you while you're accelerating, that's when you 236 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 2: run into the back end of him. Herbson again was 237 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 2: instructed by his spotter to do that, and Cas Campbell said, sorry, 238 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 2: I was just trying to make something happen, So he 239 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 2: apologized after the race. But it was something that you know, again, 240 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 2: they anticipate how cars are going to move, who's going 241 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 2: to be in what particular position. But it was certainly 242 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 2: exciting to see. It was exciting to see who possibly 243 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 2: would have been able to pull ahead go unscathe. But 244 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 2: it seemed like when the accident happened behind him, Tyler 245 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 2: Reddick just took off. I mean he was in the 246 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 2: lead position at that point and all the cars behind 247 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 2: him were the ones were wrecked. So for the top 248 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 2: five finishers were all wrecked by the end of the race. 249 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 2: It was, you know, an exciting day, big day for 250 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 2: a NASCAR, big day for Daytona five hundred. I think 251 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 2: it will probably well will go down in history from 252 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 2: the stand point of the number of winners of the 253 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 2: people that led at different times during the race, twenty 254 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 2: five different car, sixty four different lead changes and stuff. 255 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 2: Just something you just normally don't see during the races. 256 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 2: And for you know, it's always one of those things too, 257 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 2: where somebody has like the most laps, that have been 258 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 2: winning the most laps, leading the most and then towards 259 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 2: the end it kind of falls apart on him. So 260 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 2: you know, again it's one of those things as far 261 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 2: as sports are concerned, you know, they call it him. 262 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 2: You know, most of these games are you know, most 263 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 2: of these things are a matter of inches. When I 264 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 2: saw one of the passes that I think it was 265 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 2: Kaslowski at the end made this pass, I mean, he 266 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 2: was I don't know if I don't know if you 267 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 2: could have put a index card between him and the 268 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 2: back end of this guy that was in front of 269 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 2: him that he you know, could have clipped him but 270 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 2: just barely missed him. 271 00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 3: So it was. 272 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 2: An exciting race and fun to watch and then again 273 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 2: good for the sport. I want to mention also that 274 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 2: we are now thirty eight days away from the Mid 275 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 2: America Trucking Show, which again that's coming up fairly rapidly. 276 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 2: The more you look at it and the more the 277 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 2: timing and everything. Again, it's more than a trade show. 278 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 2: Free registration, by the way, ends February twenty seventh, in 279 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 2: a few days, so you can go online to Mid America. 280 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 2: Just look up Matts and go online.

If you look them up 360 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 2: on the directory, we were right behind them. And of 361 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 2: course we'll be talking to them during the show and 362 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 2: talking about a lot of different things that they've been 363 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 2: involved with throughout the year. We got on Friday consumer 364 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 2: price Index, which was very interesting. I hate to say 365 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,640 Speaker 2: I told you so, Now I don't. I don't hate 366 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 2: to tell you I told you so. I'm back in 367 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 2: April on Liberation Day. On April to second, when Donald 368 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 2: Trump talked about raising tariffs on different countries that as 369 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 2: reciprocal tariffs, not that we were just carte blanche going 370 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 2: out and tariffing the hell out of people. It was 371 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 2: taking a look and it was very very direct about it. 372 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 2: He had three, you know, like three different audio visual 373 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 2: type of things. It was just basically a card and 374 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 2: it was like a I don't know, it was like 375 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 2: a placard type of thing where he had the individual 376 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 2: countries what they were charging on our teriffs on our 377 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:17,360 Speaker 2: products going into their country versus what we were charging 378 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 2: their goods coming into our country. And he said look 379 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 2: at this and here right on down the line every country, 380 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 2: I think one hundred and eighty eight of them. He 381 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 2: had on these cards and said, you know, we are 382 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 2: going to start instituting reciprocal tariffs on these different countries 383 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 2: to try to negotiate a different trade deal because they 384 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 2: don't want to. You know, they don't want to adjust 385 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 2: trade agreements and trade arrangements unless you put pressure on them. 386 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 2: And the best way, in his opinion, to put pressure 387 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 2: on them was to reciprocate with the terriffs. Now, he 388 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,920 Speaker 2: delayed those going into a fact giving them the chance 389 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 2: to come to the negotiating table and lower their terriffs. 390 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 2: And you know, we have you know, you can have 391 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 2: free trade, but you need fair trade also. And if 392 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 2: one country is not being fair to you, why do 393 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 2: you keep taking it and allowing them to take advantage 394 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 2: of you. And this is something that Donald Trump is 395 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 2: done that makes people talk about things that nobody ever 396 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 2: talks about. And when you realize and get into what 397 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 2: these countries have been doing to us over these number 398 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 2: of years and never taking the opportunity to level the 399 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 2: playing field. He put this front and center now on 400 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 2: April the second the stock market tanked. Therefore, it was 401 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 2: actually went down something like the twelve fifteen percent, and 402 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 2: people were going, Oh my gosh, we're you know, we're. 403 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 3: Going to head into a recession. 404 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 2: There's gonna be rampant inflation, there's gonna be amount of 405 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 2: all kinds of job layoffs, and we're going to possibly 406 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 2: enter into a recession. 407 00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 3: So everybody was panicking on that day. 408 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 2: Within a month after that, not only had the stock 409 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 2: market gained back to what it was on that day, 410 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 2: but it has gone higher since. In fact, we are 411 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 2: now setting records the highest not only for a week, month, year, 412 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 2: the highest number, the highest amount, highest record in the 413 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 2: entire history of the stock market. That stock market is 414 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:32,399 Speaker 2: on fire now. And because of Donald Trump's economic policies 415 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 2: passing the One Big Beautiful Bill, this effect on teriffs. 416 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,400 Speaker 2: They said that these terrofts were going to lead to inflation. 417 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 2: I said on that day, back to my economics days, 418 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 2: the professor I had in college at Xavier University, that 419 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:53,640 Speaker 2: terraffs were part of our revenue to the government up 420 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 2: till about between World War One and World War Two. 421 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,880 Speaker 2: Then all of a sudden tax took and came into 422 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 2: effect to try to pay off the debt for World 423 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 2: War one, and then all of a sudden, it's like, well, hey, 424 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 2: you know, we got this money coming in. We're not 425 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 2: going to repeal this. We're not going to say, oh, 426 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 2: now that we've paid off World War One, we got 427 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 2: all this money coming in, let's keep the let's keep 428 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,879 Speaker 2: the spicket running. And so we started getting less and 429 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 2: less revenue from tariffs and more and more out of 430 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 2: our pockets. So to try to flip that around, he 431 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 2: started instituting these tariffs again, delayed them, didn't have them 432 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 2: go into effect for a while to get them to 433 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 2: the bargaining table. And of course the money that's been 434 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 2: coming in for that has been astounding, been paying down 435 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 2: the national debt. And the people that said that this 436 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 2: was going to lead to rampant inflation were wrong because, 437 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 2: according again going back to my college days on tariffs, 438 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,919 Speaker 2: tariffs do not lead to inflation. There may be certain 439 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 2: prices that go up, but other prices come down and 440 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 2: they wind up evening out. What causes inflation is over 441 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 2: too much spending by the federal government trying to push 442 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:11,399 Speaker 2: this part of the economy by doing subsidies, by issuing 443 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 2: certain checks, pushing certain industries, and spending money from the 444 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 2: federal government, which by the way, puts US more and 445 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 2: more into debt. And so when you're flooding the market 446 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 2: with money, then that rent leads to rampant inflation, which 447 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 2: is what we saw during the Biden years, beginning right 448 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 2: from day one up until the highest peak in June 449 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 2: of twenty twenty two, when inflation hit nine point one percent. 450 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 2: From June of twenty twenty two, from January of twenty 451 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 2: twenty one, that year and a half period of time, 452 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 2: we kept being told by Jerome Powell, lion Jerry Powell, 453 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 2: the Republicans, the Democrats, rather the spoon feder regurgitators in 454 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 2: the mainstream media, this inflation was transitory, which meant temporary, 455 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 2: This isn't going to last for long. Prices will come 456 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 2: back down, and they never did. Then the Federal Reserve 457 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 2: decided in March that, hey, prices are getting out of control. 458 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 2: We need to start upping the interest rate in order 459 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 2: to slow down the economy. And how do you slow 460 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 2: down the economy If you start charging more in terms 461 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 2: of interest, then people stop you expanding, They pull back 462 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,400 Speaker 2: a little bit. People start pulling back as far as 463 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 2: they're spending is concerned and you slow the economy down. 464 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 2: So when you slow the economy down, what does that do? 465 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 2: That leads to people losing their jobs, leads to companies 466 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 2: losing money, That leads to the stock market coming down 467 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,880 Speaker 2: a little bit because it's not these companies aren't making 468 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,679 Speaker 2: enough money. Kind of the reverse of what should be done. 469 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 2: The Federal Reserve should be trying to stoke the economy, 470 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,360 Speaker 2: trying to prompt it along and help it along. But 471 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 2: they've been in interference in this. And the fact that 472 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 2: if you look at our interest rates, and I've talked 473 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,399 Speaker 2: about this a lot, the fact that our interest rates 474 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,679 Speaker 2: are too two and a half percent higher than what 475 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 2: they are in these other developed countries. Our mortgage rates 476 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 2: are anywhere from a half one and a half percent 477 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 2: to two percent higher. We are now struggling as far 478 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 2: as our housing market is concerned, and that is holding 479 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 2: back anybody trying to expand their business, buy a new truck, 480 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 2: buy a new piece of equipment, in order to make 481 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 2: your product, your products, and your business a lot more efficient. 482 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 2: They also talked about that this interest that inflation was 483 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 2: going to go through the roof. And I said on 484 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 2: that day back in April of twenty twenty two, twenty 485 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 2: twenty five, when they. 486 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 3: Said that we will be lucky if the. 487 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 2: Gross domestic product is one point eight to two percent 488 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 2: by the end of the year. I said at that time, 489 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 2: not only will inflation be down closer to two percent, 490 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 2: but GDP will be somewhere between four and a half 491 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 2: to five the most recent prediction for the fourth quarter. 492 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 2: And of course we'll see that on Friday. I think 493 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 2: it'll be on Friday, so we won't get to it 494 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 2: because it'll be Friday morning after our show. But I 495 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 2: predicted there's estimates that that's going to be somewhere in 496 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 2: the neighborhood of five point three percent to five point 497 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 2: five Also taking into consideration the fact that with the 498 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 2: Schumer shutdown there towards the end of October on endo November, 499 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 2: that that probably shaved anywhere from a point to a 500 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 2: point and a half off. 501 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 3: Of the GDP. 502 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 2: You got to figure that if you've got air traffic 503 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 2: controllers the military that were without paychecks and they weren't spending, 504 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 2: that's not adding to the economy, thank you, Chuck Schumer 505 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 2: and the Democrats, and so that held that back. So 506 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 2: if it comes in above five percent, just imagine what 507 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 2: it would have been had it not been for the 508 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 2: Schumer shutdown. And it's amazing that. Again, talking about the 509 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 2: consumer pricingdics, which we'll talk about when we come back. 510 00:29:59,400 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 2: I'm Kevin go An, America's Trucking Network seven hundred WLWA. 511 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 2: This is America struck a Network, seven hundred WLW talk. 512 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 3: About Consumer Price Report. 513 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,800 Speaker 2: Consumer Price Index came out last Friday, and we're talking 514 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,320 Speaker 2: a little bit about well, we've been talking about Daytona 515 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 2: five hundred, Marty Graw and all that sort of which, 516 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:48,400 Speaker 2: by the way, if you missed any part of our 517 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 2: program or any of our shows, hit up that iHeartRadio 518 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,320 Speaker 2: app brought to you by our friends at Rush Truck Centers. 519 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 2: When Friday came about and I got up, I was 520 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 2: kind of curious as to how this was going to go. 521 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 2: I'm reading some of the things right off the bat. 522 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 2: I'm seeing CPI report key measure of inflation slows to 523 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:09,400 Speaker 2: a five year low. Consumer Price Index shows inflation cooled 524 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 2: in January with prices rising just two point four percent, 525 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 2: beating expectations, and all that sort of thing. The kind 526 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 2: of phrases that we keep hearing about the Trump economy 527 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 2: and some of the things that have been going on 528 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:26,759 Speaker 2: since the beginning of his second term. 529 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 3: The consumer price. 530 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 2: Index talking about the consumer price indecks for January. 531 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 3: Now, this is what I thought was. 532 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 2: You know, if anything, you know, CNBC generally is pretty 533 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 2: much straightforward. It is geared towards business, and it is 534 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 2: geared towards the people that you know invest that they 535 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:49,880 Speaker 2: talk about different things as far as business and the 536 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 2: economy all day long, and generally to a certain extent, 537 00:36:54,760 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 2: it's more neutral. But once in a while they tend 538 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 2: to get a little bit I should I say, a 539 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:09,319 Speaker 2: little nutty. I was in I took this a bad 540 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 2: way when I when I saw the initial phrase coming 541 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:21,720 Speaker 2: lead off of this story, consumer Price Index for January accelerated. Now, 542 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 2: when you say the word accelerated, that means you're putting 543 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,439 Speaker 2: the pedal to the metal, that things are speeding up 544 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:33,400 Speaker 2: and things are coming to a you know, you're increasing 545 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 2: speed and you're increasing something. If well, just what accelerate 546 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:42,279 Speaker 2: means to your brain? I mean, if you're running and 547 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,319 Speaker 2: you're accelerating, that means you're going faster. If you're in 548 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 2: the car, it's going faster. 549 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:47,319 Speaker 5: Uh. 550 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:51,840 Speaker 2: If the temperature is accelerating, it's getting higher. But no, 551 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 2: the accelerated to two point four percent from the same 552 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:02,000 Speaker 2: time a year ago, down point three percent from the 553 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:06,959 Speaker 2: previous month. So how can you be accelerating but you've 554 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 2: come back. Do these people not understand adjectives or are 555 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 2: they trying to? Again, as I've said before, the spoon 556 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:20,719 Speaker 2: fed regurgitators in the mainstream media keep trying to downplay 557 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:25,359 Speaker 2: the economy, downplay what is happening, trying to maybe put 558 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 2: in people's mind certain things. Because if you see a 559 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 2: headline that people don't like, I said, people are just 560 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:38,279 Speaker 2: a lot of people just all they do is they 561 00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,399 Speaker 2: scroll through their phone. All they do is just look 562 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,600 Speaker 2: at the headlines. They don't read the stories, they don't 563 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 2: delve into it the way we do here on America's 564 00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 2: truck A Network. And the fact that somebody would be 565 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 2: reading something and says, oh, inflation accelerates a two point four, 566 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:57,279 Speaker 2: Well that's assuming that they're paying a close attention and 567 00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:01,160 Speaker 2: not realize what the inflation rate was last month. All 568 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 2: they're seeing is something that says accelerates to two point 569 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 2: four And that's why people are saying. I think a 570 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 2: lot of people that are looking at the economy and 571 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:13,400 Speaker 2: are talking about accelerating prices. I mean, for crying out loud, 572 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 2: where were these people complaining about it during the during 573 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 2: the Biden administration, in one month, inflation went up nine 574 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:26,439 Speaker 2: point one percent, and I don't remember the spoon fed 575 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 2: regurgitators in the mainstream mader They were making excuses for it. 576 00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 2: They were coming up, well, this happened this time. You've 577 00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:33,880 Speaker 2: got to take this into consideration. You got, well, you 578 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 2: know this is different, and and you know this isn't 579 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 2: this isn't as bad as you may look at it 580 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 2: on the surface. There's this, this and this, and just 581 00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 2: wait because things are going to change better for the better. 582 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 2: It's just absolutely incredible. But this whole starting this off with. 583 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:55,240 Speaker 1: Acceleration insurance in this little the same time, visit progressive 584 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:56,280 Speaker 1: commercial point. 585 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 2: Three percent from the prior month. Bureau Labor Statistics reported 586 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 2: on Friday, Excluding food and energy, the core CPI was 587 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 2: up two point five percent, the lowest level, the lowest 588 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 2: level since April of twenty twenty one. Okay, going back 589 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 2: four years to the first couple of months of the 590 00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 2: Biden administration, and let's not forget the final reading of 591 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:29,240 Speaker 2: the inflation rate under Donald Trump going into the twenty 592 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 2: twenty one. At the end of twenty December of twenty twenty, 593 00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 2: inflation was at one point four percent, so one point 594 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 2: four percent. Turning over to Joe Biden with a one 595 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:45,720 Speaker 2: point four percent increase in inflation all of a sudden 596 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 2: accelerated up to two point four percent, two point five, 597 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,319 Speaker 2: two point six, two point seven, all the way up 598 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,080 Speaker 2: to nine point one percent in June of twenty twenty two, 599 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 2: So again the inflation rate is the lowest level since 600 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 2: April twenty twenty one. Caught of a survey by dal 601 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,440 Speaker 2: Jones had been looking for an annual rate of two 602 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 2: point five for both readings. Again, they were off a 603 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,400 Speaker 2: bit on that. A monthly basis, all items under the 604 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:16,080 Speaker 2: index was up seasonally adjusted point two percent, while core 605 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 2: game point three AMERICANPI gains point two percent for the month, 606 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 2: bringing the annual increase to three percent. Shelter makes up 607 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:32,319 Speaker 2: more than one third of the CPI. Now included in 608 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:36,280 Speaker 2: that shelter expense would be interest rates, and if interest 609 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:40,680 Speaker 2: rates are riding in the six percent as high as 610 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:45,400 Speaker 2: six point five percent, I believe in that the final 611 00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:48,960 Speaker 2: last month because it started coming down a little bit 612 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 2: towards the end of the month to where it got 613 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 2: down to a round. I think the last reading at 614 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 2: the end of January was six point one point nine. 615 00:41:56,560 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 2: I think on the mortgage. Again, if that's part of 616 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:03,759 Speaker 2: the shelve, then that being part of the shelter cost 617 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:07,760 Speaker 2: is adding to the cost and the increase in these prices. 618 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:11,799 Speaker 2: Food prices increased point two percent as a five as 619 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 2: five of the six major grocery groups categories posted gains. 620 00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 2: Energy fell one point five percent, while vehicle prices were 621 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 2: also muted, with new vehicles up just point one percent. Now, 622 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:28,560 Speaker 2: let's take that into consideration real quick. The new car 623 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:32,239 Speaker 2: price is at point one percent. Weren't we told back 624 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 2: on Liberation Day the fact that some of these new 625 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 2: cars were going to be coming over from foreign countries, 626 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 2: and they were going to have all these tariffs on them, 627 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,839 Speaker 2: that they were going to be out of control, that 628 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 2: the prices were going to be going extremely high, that 629 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 2: the average price on a car was going to go 630 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 2: up X number of dollars, well, apparently point one percent. 631 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,440 Speaker 2: And as I said, as I pointed out from the beginning, 632 00:42:56,760 --> 00:43:00,319 Speaker 2: you've got many stages of the tariff increases where those 633 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 2: can be absorbed before they even get to the consumer. 634 00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 2: To reiterate, you've got the manufacturer over in a foreign 635 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:10,480 Speaker 2: country that is getting subsidized by their government. They're not 636 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 2: paying as much wages over there per capita as we 637 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 2: are paying over here, so they've got a distinct advantage 638 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,799 Speaker 2: there in terms of their cost of labor and their 639 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:23,200 Speaker 2: cost of materials, and their cost going into that particular product. 640 00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:25,840 Speaker 2: So they have a wide margin between what it costs 641 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 2: them to produce to what they sell to the exporter. 642 00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:33,919 Speaker 2: The exporter then takes a look at their market and says, well, 643 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,759 Speaker 2: I've got importers that want to take these products, so 644 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:40,440 Speaker 2: I have to increase my price on that so that 645 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:42,600 Speaker 2: I get a cut of that so that I make 646 00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:45,439 Speaker 2: a profit. So here's the price I'm going to charge them. 647 00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 2: Then the importer takes that of course, has to add 648 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 2: a little bit to that so they can make some money, 649 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 2: turns it. 650 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 3: Over to the wholesaler. 651 00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:56,839 Speaker 2: The wholesaler then turns it over the retailer, and then 652 00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 2: the retailer turns it over to us. So all those 653 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 2: steps along the way, the manufacturer absorbs a little bit 654 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:10,759 Speaker 2: of the tariff. The exporter takes each part of that 655 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:16,120 Speaker 2: tariff the importer. Again, all because these companies look at 656 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,840 Speaker 2: their bottom line and they say, well, I want to 657 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,960 Speaker 2: maintain my market share. I don't want to lose business, 658 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,200 Speaker 2: so I'm going to cut into my profit a little 659 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:29,440 Speaker 2: bit so that these goods are still acceptable and desirable 660 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,319 Speaker 2: for these other people. So I'm going to hold back 661 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:34,879 Speaker 2: my prices so that when by the time it gets 662 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:38,359 Speaker 2: to the retailer and then to the consumer, it goes up. 663 00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:40,839 Speaker 2: So if you take into consideration that some of these 664 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,839 Speaker 2: cars head up to twenty five percent tariff on them, 665 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 2: for them to only go uper point one percent means 666 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:49,560 Speaker 2: that a lot of this is what I talked about 667 00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,600 Speaker 2: back in April, came to fruition. A lot of these 668 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:55,960 Speaker 2: people absorbed this because they're concerned about their market share 669 00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 2: and wanted to keep their companies. Well, folks, we're getting 670 00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 2: close to the bottom. I think I got a couple 671 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:04,080 Speaker 2: of things that can squeeze in here.
