The Louver director had offered to resign in 27 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,519 Speaker 3: the wake of all of this. We highlighted it on 28 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 3: the show because you know, you don't hear a lot 29 00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 3: of accountability coming from anybody anymore.

Come on l o U 37 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 3: v r E. It was just the name of the 38 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 3: with the time of the one hundred and two million 39 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 3: dollars jewel hest that took place last last because of 40 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 3: course it was right. I mean, I guess maybe you think, 41 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 3: what are the odds that somebody is going to go 42 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 3: and attempt to do such a thing in which case, 43 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 3: but I mean it's twenty twenty five, who hasn't learned 44 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 3: right to make a complicated password. 45 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 5: I wonder if the IT person was just like, well, 46 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 5: our Wi Fi password is louve. It's easy to remember. 47 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 5: Let's just set everything else. 48 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 3: We'll make it consistent across the board. It is. My 49 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 3: wife's not up yet, so I can go here. If 50 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 3: she were, I probably wouldn't tell the story. But in 51 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 3: our household, like Melinda is so conscientious of passwords, like 52 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 3: we won't even say I'm out loud. She has a 53 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 3: master list that are mostly all handwritten out okay on paper, 54 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 3: of our of our passwords. As a matter of fact, 55 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 3: we had to go and update the the Apple password recently. 56 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 3: And if you if you are an Apple product family, 57 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 3: you know that when you go and update that password 58 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 3: like it is, I mean, it takes it takes you 59 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 3: a week to run through the resetting of all of 60 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 3: the different devices, the notifications that are sent to somebody 61 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 3: else's phone where you had to put in whatever their 62 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 3: log in numbers are for the password. It is a hassle. 63 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 3: So we had to do this recently. But Melinda kept saying, 64 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 3: don't say it out loud. Phones are listening because they 65 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 3: are I mean, I'm not giving her too hard. The 66 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 3: phones are listening, right, but don't say it out loud. 67 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 3: So we had it written. We have a dry erase 68 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 3: board in the kitchen, and we had it written on 69 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 3: the dry erase board. This was a couple weeks a 70 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 3: couple of weeks back, and at one point Kyle had said, 71 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 3: you know, can we can we get rid of that 72 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 3: off the dry erase board. He was just tired of 73 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 3: looking at it, and he likes things to be very succinct. 74 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 3: I'm like, sure, without fail. Within three days, Melinda had 75 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 3: to go and implement, had to go and input the 76 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 3: Apple ID password and couldn't remember. 77 00:05:59,680 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 2: What it was. 78 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 3: And I had failed to go and right right right, 79 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 3: So we absolutely we actually did end up figuring out 80 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 3: it was what I had assumed. I knew what it, 81 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 3: remembered what it was, and then I went and actually 82 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 3: typed it in and it ended up working. It was 83 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 3: an issue of one of the letters having to be 84 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 3: having to be capitalized, so fascinating to talk to is 85 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 3: what you're gonna have? Yeah, that's exactly exactly what it was. 86 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 3: I'm like, I'm ninety nine present, sure that's what the 87 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 3: password is? Is that working for me. Maybe you come 88 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:32,720 Speaker 3: and put it in and now you know, you know, 89 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 3: now there you go.

Ye put 173 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 12: this on the edito out of all three of your 174 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 12: producers are all conservative or are they alluded to liberals 175 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 12: or are they somewhere in between? 176 00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:58,439 Speaker 2: Do you know? 177 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 3: I do not know, and I do not care. It's 178 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 3: actually really refreshing because, first off, anybody and this has 179 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 3: been like it's been like this for me, at least 180 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 3: my attitude about issues like this throughout my entire talk 181 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 3: radio career. When I was doing rock radio, it didn't 182 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 3: it didn't matter. But anybody who was producing or was 183 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:25,439 Speaker 3: running the board or filling in, listen, if you didn't 184 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,319 Speaker 3: do your homework prior to joining this show and didn't 185 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 3: know what to expect, it's it's partly on you. At 186 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:39,319 Speaker 3: the same time, for me, it's a matter of knowing 187 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 3: the roles of those that work on the show and 188 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 3: just how we treat each other's as personalities, you know, 189 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 3: how we should be in real life, where ultimately, if 190 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 3: our politics don't matter in terms of the job that 191 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 3: we are doing, then there's no real reason to be 192 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,599 Speaker 3: going and discussing them. And I would hope that in 193 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 3: so far it's been the case that anybody working on 194 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 3: this show ends up judging or having an opinion about 195 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 3: me because how of how I treat them, and less 196 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 3: about what I end up saying on the air. The 197 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 3: only time I've told this story before, but cracked me up. 198 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 3: There was a guy that I worked with for a 199 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 3: long period of time, you know, because I was in 200 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:18,079 Speaker 3: Tucson for for nine years and I had worked he'd 201 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 3: been my producer and board up for it was a 202 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 3: It was a couple of those years, real quiet, reserve 203 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 3: dude would laugh at what I said on the air. 204 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 3: Got along just fine. And it wasn't until his last 205 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 3: day when when we were basically you know, party ways 206 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 3: is saying goodbye. He'd gone and gotten another job and 207 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 3: he'd set up Frodd. He's like, I pretty much disagreed 208 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,439 Speaker 3: with everything that you said on the air, but I 209 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 3: really enjoyed working with you. And I was like, you 210 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 3: know what, man, I had absolutely no clue whatsoever, and 211 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 3: you know, good on, good on you. So there we go. 212 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 3: I did ask Sam if he was okay with me 213 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 3: asking that question on the air, because this is how 214 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 3: I roll. I try to be respectful. 215 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,719 Speaker 5: By the way, Brandon snuck in a third, did you 216 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:03,599 Speaker 5: hear that I did? I was very pleased about that. 217 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,439 Speaker 3: I didn't preview it because I know Brandon's talk back 218 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 3: to the audio is usually pretty clean, and so when 219 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,079 Speaker 3: I heard it in the background. I was, I was, 220 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 3: I was very happy about Hell yeah, all right, let's 221 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 3: go here. Nearly four months after Sidney Sweeney's American The 222 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 3: Eagle Jeans ad made headlines, the Euphoria actress responded to 223 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 3: the good Genes controversy. You have to watch the video 224 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 3: of this. It's already become a meme. It is. I've 225 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 3: actually made one that put it up on x if 226 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 3: you follow me on j On John Justice should go 227 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 3: and h and check it out. But in this clip, 228 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 3: the interviewer tried to set this clever trap for Sweeney, right, 229 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 3: kind of framing it as a favor at Sidney Sweeney 230 00:14:54,720 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 3: just effortlessly swerved out of it. I mean it, and 231 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 3: a lot of people are giving Sidney Sweeney class or 232 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 3: I'm excuse me, not class. She doesn't have a lot 233 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 3: of class, but they're giving her a lot of credit here. 234 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 3: And it's not to say she doesn't deserve credit for this, 235 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 3: but it was really an instinctive and honest response. I mean, 236 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 3: I think most people like I try to put myself 237 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 3: in the similar situation. I tried to place myself in 238 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 3: Sidney Sweeney's spot in this interview and I thought to myself, Yeah, 239 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 3: that's how I would have reacted, just like, yeah, no, 240 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna take the bait on this. Ultimately, it's 241 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 3: none of your business. So online it's usually just the 242 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 3: shorter clip of the question about the dual meaning of 243 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 3: jeans and jens and how she feels. I'm gonna play 244 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 3: for you the entirety of this moment, because again it's 245 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 3: clear that the woman, the GQ interviewer in this case, 246 00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 3: either subconsciously or intentionally, was sort of setting Sweeney up 247 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 3: before she basically handed her, you know, an opportunity if 248 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 3: she wanted to go and apologize. So listen to this 249 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 3: and then we'll talk about it coming up in just 250 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 3: a few minutes here on Twin Cities News Talk and 251 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 3: get to more of your talkbacks from the iHeartRadio app 252 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 3: on a Freedom Friday. I'm literally in jeens, little two shirt, 253 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 3: like every day of my life. 254 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 11: Jeans are uncontroversial. Genes are awesome. You look great in 255 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 11: your genes. I think I know how you're gonna answer this, 256 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 11: but I'm gonna ask anyway. I mean, the President tweeted 257 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 11: about the genes AD or trade social about the genes 258 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 11: AD and that just seems to me like a very 259 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 11: crazy moment for anyone, And I wondered. 260 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 2: What that was like. 261 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 11: It was surreal, It was surreal, and it would be 262 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 11: totally human. I would probably feel like thankful that somebody 263 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 11: had my back in public, you know, and conveniently some 264 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 11: very powerful people had my back in public. And I 265 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 11: wondered if if you felt that way. 266 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 3: I don't think. I don't think that. It's not that feeling, didn't. 267 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 3: I don't have that feeling. But I wasn't thinking of 268 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 3: it like that. So it was interesting here because Sidney Sweeney, 269 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 3: she's not stupid. She sends to what was coming. I mean, 270 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 3: anybody could if you're paying attention, you know. All right, 271 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 3: this is an attempt to lean into this controversy, but 272 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 3: in an uncontroversial way, because this GQ interviewer wants to 273 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 3: get the sound bite, and Sidney Sweeney, to her credit, pauses, waits, 274 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 3: thinks about it, understands what's going on, and chooses her 275 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 3: words very carefully. 276 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,360 Speaker 13: Like of any of it, I kind of just put 277 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 13: my phone away. I was filming every day. I'm filming Euphoreia, 278 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 13: so I'm working like sixteen hour days, and I don't 279 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 13: really bring my phone on set. So I work and 280 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 13: then I go home and I go to sleep, So 281 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 13: I didn't really I don't really see. 282 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 3: A lot of it. 283 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 11: You've made a really good case for keeping your thoughts 284 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 11: and your life separate from that work. But the risk 285 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,120 Speaker 11: is that you know, there's a chance that somebody will 286 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 11: get some idea about what you think about certain issues 287 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 11: and feel like I don't want. 288 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 3: See Christie because of that, Like, do you worry about that? 289 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 2: No? 290 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 5: No. 291 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 11: The criticism of the content, which was basically that maybe 292 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 11: specifically in this political climate, like white people shouldn't joke 293 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 11: about genetic superiority like that was kind of like the 294 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 11: criticism broadly speaking. And since you are talking about this, 295 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,640 Speaker 11: I just wanted to give you an opportunity to talk 296 00:18:58,640 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 11: about that specifically. 297 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 13: I think that when I I have an issue that 298 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 13: I want to speak about, people here. 299 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 3: Just absolutely brilliant. More coming up on Twin City's News 300 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 3: Talk Am eleven thirty and one three five Fman. 301 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 14: Speaking of Sidney Sweeney. About two weeks ago, I went 302 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 14: to screen Unseen at AMC and the surprise movie that 303 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 14: they played was Christy. Sidney Sweeney played the main character. 304 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 14: The main character's name is Christy and she is a 305 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 14: female boxer. I guess it's a true story. She was 306 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 14: amazing Sidney Sweeney and Christy, Thank. 307 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 9: You, John. 308 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 3: Stop giving that demon bizzong away for free. 309 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 7: Make everybody get their tape recorder out and record it 310 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 7: from the radio like we always had to do back 311 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 7: in the nineties. 312 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 3: Who has a tape recorder still? I don't even have 313 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 3: one anymore. I mean, you're right, totally used to have 314 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 3: to do. 315 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 5: But the station I've worked for before I came here, John, 316 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 5: they had not only had cassette players, they had four 317 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 5: track reel to reels in the studio. 318 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 3: And this was a competing sports radio station.

Yeah, that's just lazy. 320 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 3: I mean, I assume they're using other equipment and they 321 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 3: just hadn't removed the old equipment that has that has 322 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 3: to be or they still actually using it. 323 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 5: I mean, they weren't like actively using that, But I 324 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 5: don't know that plays had a lot of old stuff 325 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 5: just around. 326 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 3: When I started at the first alternative rock station I 327 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 3: worked with worked at as an intern, they were still 328 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 3: using The morning show host that I was interning with 329 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 3: was still using a reel to reel had a razor 330 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 3: blade in studio because you'd have to you'd have to 331 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:58,120 Speaker 3: sync it up and you know, and rotate the reel 332 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,360 Speaker 3: back and forth to get the right you know edits 333 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 3: and she would splice it and use little pieces of 334 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 3: tape and put it back together. And they still had 335 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 3: what we used, you know, called carts, which were essentially 336 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 3: the the eight track that you were that you were mentioning. 337 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 14: It was, it was. 338 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,479 Speaker 3: It was really interesting because when I started, it quickly 339 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 3: transitioned afterwards, so I never had I might have worked 340 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 3: a shift or two on the weekends using the reel 341 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,159 Speaker 3: to reel, I seem to recall, but I mean it 342 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 3: wasn't anything more than just a just a few months. 343 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 3: So at the same time, I mean, even the computer 344 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 3: system that we use in studio, you know, this is 345 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 3: this is still like MS doss looking it looks so 346 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 3: it looks so archaic, but it's tough to go and 347 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 3: update it because everybody uses it constantly and it's sort 348 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 3: of it almost needs to be more utilitarian in its 349 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 3: in its work.

We are not a serious country. 388 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 12: No it is. 389 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 3: It is Freedom Friday. You know, we're lightening things up. 390 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 3: I do have some serious things that we'll talk about 391 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:54,639 Speaker 3: coming up here in a bit. We're gonna do a 392 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 3: deep dive into the filibuster. A lot of people asking, 393 00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 3: you know, can you undo it and then put it 394 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 3: back in place? You can, But as you go sort 395 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 3: of down the rabbit hole of the filibuster and look 396 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 3: at history, it becomes incredibly clear that both sides want 397 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:16,159 Speaker 3: to be able to exploit the filibuster because it's it's 398 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 3: a lot more fluid than I had even thought. And 399 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 3: we'll get to that in just a moment. 400 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:26,640 Speaker 9: Sometimes you won't know when you're talking to a deranged liberal, 401 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 9: but sometimes it'll be completely obvious and the inflection of 402 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 9: their voice when the GQ interviewer says specifically. 403 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 3: The Supreme Court yesterday allowed the Trump administration to enforce 404 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:47,680 Speaker 3: policy aimed at limiting transgender rights that would restrict to 405 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 3: sex designations on passports to male and female based on 406 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 3: sex assigned app birth. The Justice is granted this emergency 407 00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 3: request filed by the administration seeking to reverse the policy 408 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 3: introduced by the Biden administration that allow people to put 409 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:07,360 Speaker 3: X as a gender marker or self select male or female. 410 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 3: Three liberal justices on the conservative majority Court, of course, dissented. 411 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,640 Speaker 3: The Trump policy effectively means the transgender people, even those 412 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,879 Speaker 3: who have fully transitioned and have medical records to prove it, 413 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,919 Speaker 3: would not be able to have gender markers that correspond 414 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 3: with their identities, something we'll talk about on Monday's show 415 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 3: and it's not gained a lot of momentum yet, but 416 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 3: I anticipate over the weekend it will is that apparently 417 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,919 Speaker 3: the Supreme Court is poised to take up the issue 418 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 3: of gay marriage, and a lot of analysts are saying 419 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 3: that it seems more likely than not that the Supreme 420 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:49,439 Speaker 3: Court could strike down nationwide gay marriage, much like they 421 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 3: did with abortion, and send it back to the States. 422 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 3: Of course, this would create a massive ripple effect of 423 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 3: criticism and commentary, which could also play in to the 424 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 3: filibuster talk as well. So that is something that we 425 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 3: will be getting into in detail on Monday's show. Again, 426 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 3: it's just being talked about in a few outlets, but 427 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,160 Speaker 3: I anticipate over the weekend it's going to grow quite 428 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 3: a bit and we'll spend some time on it on 429 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 3: a Monday Show. All Right. From Newsmax, the Department of 430 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 3: Agricultures said that the beneficiaries of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance 431 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 3: program will receive sixty five percent of their normal allotment 432 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 3: for November instead of the previously estimated fifty The department's 433 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 3: Deputy Undersecretary for Food, Nutrition and Consumer Services disclosed the 434 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 3: new rate earlier this week in a court filing. We 435 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 3: mentioned this briefly yesterday. The shrub administration told a federal 436 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 3: judge that it would tap into more than four billion 437 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 3: in contingency funds to distribute half of November's benefits during 438 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,679 Speaker 3: the ongoing government shutdown. Under the revised figures, a family 439 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 3: of four in the contiguous United States will receive approximately 440 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 3: six hundred and forty six dollars in SNAP benefits or 441 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 3: food stands for the month. A federal judge, also in 442 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 3: Rhode Island overnight has essentially ordered a Trump to act 443 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 3: like a king and find money to fully SNAP fund, 444 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 3: beyond what the Trump administration said they were already going 445 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 3: to do. And listen, these are activist judges that are 446 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:23,920 Speaker 3: perpetuating the leftist narrative that this is all Trump's fault. 447 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 3: This is why these judges are doing this. They don't 448 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 3: even know themselves how Trump is supposed to go and 449 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 3: find this money and legally go in fund SNAP without 450 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:38,239 Speaker 3: Congress getting involved. But they simply do not care. They 451 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 3: want to be able to aid the Democrats in perpetuating 452 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 3: this ridiculous nonsense that it's Trump's fault that people aren't 453 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,439 Speaker 3: receiving their SNAP benefits, including Governor Tim Wallas, who held 454 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 3: the press conference yesterday and spouted the lie and then 455 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 3: went back to a controversy that actually ended like three 456 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 3: days ago. We'll get to this in just a moment. 457 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,400 Speaker 3: Let me share this with you though, as I take 458 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 3: a look at the talkbacks rolling in from the iHeartRadio 459 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 3: app brought to you by Lindahl Realty Kaylee mcanaey on 460 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:11,919 Speaker 3: Fox News talking about the filibuster and who is actually 461 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 3: hurting that's not being talked about as much in this 462 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 3: whole debate. 463 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 15: Let me make this really simple. No one's winning, not Republicans, 464 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 15: not Democrats. When military members cannot pay their bills, when 465 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,959 Speaker 15: air traffic controllers are calling out because they get zeros 466 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 15: on their paycheck, when our safety is at issue in 467 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:28,919 Speaker 15: the side, no one is winning. 468 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 3: We are all losing. 469 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 15: And why because Democrats they got a chance to vote 470 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 15: to pay the military. Fine, you don't want to open 471 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 15: up the government, how about pay the military es central workers. 472 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 15: Guess how many Democrats voted to do that? Three John Fetterman, 473 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 15: Rafael Warnack, and John Assoft. Three Democrats voted to pay 474 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 15: the military. Now, John Kennedy says, let's vote to remove 475 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 15: our pay until military members get paid. Can't wait to 476 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 15: see how many Democrats vote on that. 477 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 3: Let me propose a. 478 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 15: Very simple solution here. Pilibuster not in the constitution, Filibuster 479 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 15: not pass legislatively. Filibuster can be removed for the sole 480 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 15: purpose of spending bills. You can just remove the filibuster 481 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 15: to open the government when military members are hurting, when 482 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 15: we are not safe in the skies, it is time 483 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 15: to nuke the filibuster for spending bills because Democrats are 484 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 15: hurting our country. 485 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 3: Now, as I mentioned, Governor Tim Walls held the press 486 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 3: conference and talking about these issues. Also, he spent the 487 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 3: He spends the first part of this thirty second clip. 488 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 3: I'm talking about Minnesota being a great place to live, 489 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 3: and it is. I'm not saying that, however, the metrics 490 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 3: by which Walls goes and points to these lists that 491 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 3: Minnesota lands on about being the best place to live 492 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 3: for a bunch of various reasons. Basically, these are all 493 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 3: outlets that are that are you know, check marking boxes 494 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 3: relating to progressive policies that have been adopted here by 495 00:29:55,600 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 3: Democrats that lend themselves to the various cia that they 496 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 3: put forward for us to land on this list. Yeah, 497 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 3: even in these lists that taut different states and which 498 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 3: places are better for the economy and children. Yeah, they're 499 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 3: also biased, just like the legacy media. And then towards 500 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 3: the end, it's really interesting because Walls does his tell 501 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 3: where he pauses for a moment because he knows he's 502 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 3: about to lie, and then he moves forward with a 503 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 3: lie in an argument that was from like three or 504 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 3: four days ago that never gained any traction, but Walls 505 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 3: just couldn't let it go. 506 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 16: I think we have shown that in many categories we 507 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 16: rank at or near the very top in quality of life. 508 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 16: But I think the focus in all of those races 509 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 16: is is that we have to bring down the cost 510 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 16: of life for many people. And that means things like childcare, 511 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 16: it means things like housing, and it certainly means things 512 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 16: like food and the food insecurity issue that we saw. 513 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 16: And again, I I don't know for what it's worth. 514 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 16: My pro tip to the president of view is don't 515 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 16: hold Great Gatsby parties on the night before. You're going 516 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:00,720 Speaker 16: to punish people for being hungry. 517 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 3: It is not a sin to be poor. God, he's 518 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 3: such a loser perpetuating the lie that Trump is somehow 519 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 3: responsible for the Snap benefits when it just is a 520 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 3: byproduct of the Democrats keeping the government shut down. Everybody 521 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 3: knows that, and yet he continues to spout this lie 522 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 3: and then attempts to use what several people did in 523 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 3: the wake of this Halloween party that was pre planned 524 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 3: at the White House, including this editorial that I want 525 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 3: to share with you some details from in the Star 526 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 3: Tribune written by co Vang Trump's great gaspee moment, partying 527 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 3: it up while Americans go hungry. I'll share with you 528 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 3: a few points from this, and yes, we are going 529 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 3: to go ahead and put it on our never ending 530 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 3: parade of stupid this morning, President Donald Trump writes Kavang 531 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 3: through a great Gatsby party this past weekend in mar 532 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 3: A Lago, while millions of Americans lost their Snap benefits. 533 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 3: It's one thing to eat cake and drink champagne while 534 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 3: others starve. It's another to rent a jazz band, pour 535 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 3: champagne into a tower, and rub it in our faces 536 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 3: while calling its presidential leadership. You know, and once again, 537 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 3: you had all these Democrats that were reposting videos and 538 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 3: snapshots from this party. If they were really concerned about 539 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 3: this being offensive to individuals who are on snap, then 540 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 3: why did you go and continue to spread it around 541 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 3: for those individuals to see just out of curiosity? And 542 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 3: of course there's no discussion or mention at all of 543 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 3: the essentially a weekend wine tasting party that a bunch 544 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 3: of Democrats went on in Napa, California in the wake 545 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 3: of the shutdown beginning. No, of course not. kV An 546 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 3: goes on to say, we all read The Great Gatsby 547 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 3: in high school, or at least pretended to some of 548 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 3: us just to watch the Leonardo DiCaprio movie and decided 549 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 3: that was good enough. But even those who never got 550 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 3: past the spark Notes version remember how it ends. Jay Gatsby, 551 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 3: a man obsessed with wealth and illusion, ends up floating 552 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 3: dead in his pool. I don't know if Trump read 553 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:21,719 Speaker 3: f Scott Fitzgerald or reads it all, but he's clearly 554 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 3: mastered one of Gatsby's tragic flaws. Pretending glitter is gold. 555 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 3: This could have been a Scooby Doo themed party, and 556 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 3: this hack would have written an editorial slamming it. And 557 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 3: which way is it? Because Kavang in this piece she 558 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 3: does this a few times, like is he illiterate or 559 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 3: is he the evil villain that held this party to 560 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 3: throw it in the faces of poor people, Because she 561 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,959 Speaker 3: makes several comments in here is I don't know if 562 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 3: he knows how to read or if he even read it. 563 00:33:54,040 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 3: So again, which one is it? Trump's sore was his 564 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 3: Marie Antoinette let them eat cake moment, except the cake 565 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 3: was gold leafed, the caviar imported, and the guests list 566 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 3: limited to people who don't know the price of a 567 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 3: gallon of milk. Meanwhile, the SNAP program is being gutted. No, 568 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 3: it's just been suspended, and it's probably the people that 569 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:32,919 Speaker 3: Kabank supports that suspended it. I just there's no nothing 570 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:36,879 Speaker 3: being okay anyway. She goes on to right, well, okay. 571 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 3: She spends two paragraphs then laying out why SNAP is 572 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,240 Speaker 3: important as which you know, as if nobody knew talking 573 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 3: about children and you know, service workers and the like. 574 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:50,720 Speaker 3: She goes on to say, I read The Great Gatsby 575 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,479 Speaker 3: as a student in Saint Agnes High School in Saint Paul, 576 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 3: learning that Fitzgerald himself was born and raised in the 577 00:34:56,640 --> 00:35:00,120 Speaker 3: same city. I keep picturing Trump dancing with Milania and 578 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 3: his designer sequined gown pretending to be Gatsby and Daisy, 579 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 3: when really they're more like Edgar Allen Poe's Prince Prospero 580 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 3: and his courtiers in Mask of the Red Death. Listen, 581 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:20,320 Speaker 3: you know the argument is flimsy when she needs to 582 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 3: go and spend this much time one explaining why it's 583 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 3: super offensive and then two trying to find other examples 584 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:31,720 Speaker 3: of why this is all super offensive. On Monday, Trump's 585 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 3: administration said it would partially fund SNAP for November, but 586 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 3: only after two judges issued rulings requiring the government to 587 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 3: keep the nation's largest food aid program running. That's actually 588 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,840 Speaker 3: not true. The Trump administration was looking for ways to 589 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 3: go and fund it anyhow, and did so even without 590 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:51,239 Speaker 3: the judge ruling. But be that as it may, I 591 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:55,320 Speaker 3: don't expect this individual to actually go and seek the 592 00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:58,799 Speaker 3: proper context and truth. And again she wraps her piece 593 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 3: up with Trump may have never read The Great Gatsby. Okay. 594 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 3: If that's the case, then he's completely unaware about how 595 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:09,719 Speaker 3: this could be viewed as inappropriate or Mask of the 596 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 3: Red Death. But the moral is waiting for him at 597 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:16,399 Speaker 3: the end of his own party. You can build walls, well, 598 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 3: the doors and pour all the champagne you want, but 599 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 3: hunger seeps through everything. And in real life and in books, 600 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 3: the party always ends when the people outside get tired 601 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 3: of starving. Just ask Marie Antoinette and Jay Gatsby how 602 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 3: their parties ended. I said it before, I'll say it again. 603 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 3: If Trump was really really all that evil, wouldn't you 604 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 3: have a host of other things to point to rather 605 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:51,680 Speaker 3: than spinning out of control over a pre planned Halloween 606 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 3: party that every single administration does every year. Completely Separate 607 00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 3: from the ongoing shutdown and the snap benefits, we'll get 608 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,359 Speaker 3: some more of your comments coming up here on Twin 609 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:08,759 Speaker 3: Cities News Talk. We'll dive further into the filibuster talk 610 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 3: and the shutdown. Got a lot more audio to play 611 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 3: from Trump and a couple of clips that may have 612 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 3: you change my tune on the filibuster. And we've got 613 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 3: a lot of your talkbacks already that have rolled in. 614 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 3: We'll get to those next here on a Freedom Friday, 615 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 3: as Catherine Johnson and Grace Keating for an American Experiment 616 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 3: to join us in the studio here on Twin Cities 617 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,760 Speaker 3: News Talk. They have what's called a Trump derangement problem. 618 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 3: Have you heard about that problem,
