Speaker 3: Good morning, Jeff? I am good. With March being Women's

8
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:36,159
Speaker 3: History Month, we've been talking about something that really deserves

9
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 3: more attention, how retirement looks different for women. The reality

10
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 3: is women tend to live longer, They're more likely to

11
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 3: step away from work to care for family, and many

12
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 3: find themselves managing finances on their own later in life.

13
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 3: Those are important factors, and while they don't make retirement harder,

14
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 3: they do make planning even more important. That's exactly why

15
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 3: we've created our Investor Guide, Women Retire to It walks

00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:12,840

31
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 2: my friends. Nine thirty four on the Great WRKO Jeff

32
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 2: Koner Boston's Bulldozer six one seven two six six sixty

33
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 2: eight sixty eight. As you can tell Kooner, country is

34
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 2: split on the war and definitely split on the issue

35
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: of whether to send ground troops into Iran. Rick believes

36
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 2: the whole war apparation Operation Epic Fury is one giant

37
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 2: debacle and mistake. He believes that Trump is following the

38
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 2: lead of Israel and that by doing this it is

39
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 2: going to undermine and ultimately destroy his domestic agenda. Rick,

40
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 2: please pick up where you left off.

41
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,959
Speaker 4: Yeah, nothing's gonna get done. Nothing else will get done,

42
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 4: There'll be no voter. I mean, it's just crazy. And

43
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 4: now you're going to send guys over there to die.

44
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 4: What you can't control what other people do. Let them

45
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 4: live their life in their own country. How would you

46
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 4: like the foreigners coming over here and telling us how

47
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 4: we're supposed to live.

48
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 5: It's just crazy.

49
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 2: Rick, what do you say to the argument? And this

50
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 2: is obviously the president's argument. I'm sure you know it,

51
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 2: but I just want to get your take on it,

52
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 2: that it's both Trump and Netanyahu's argument, both the United

53
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:32,920
Speaker 2: States and Israel, that these are fanatics, religious fanatics who

54
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 2: talk about an apocalypse, the coming of the twelfthy mom

55
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 2: that they have been itching to get their hands on

56
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 2: a nuclear weapon, and that they intend to use a

57
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 2: nuclear weapon, and that this would lead essentially to World

58
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 2: War III, and that they were very close to acquiring

59
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 2: a nuke, it was an imminent threat, and that they

60
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 2: could have gotten eight, nine, ten, eleven nuclear bombs over

61
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 2: the next several weeks before Trump decided to move, and

62
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 2: that no responsible US president can allow the region, the world,

63
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 2: or the United States to be threatened by an Islamo

64
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:20,280
Speaker 2: Nazi regime that would have a nuclear weapon that could

65
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 2: potentially kill tens, if not hundreds of millions of people.

66
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 2: What do you say to that argument.

67
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 4: Well, China and Russia are their neighbors right right next door.

68
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 2: They're fairly close.

69
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, so if it was that, if it was

70
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 4: that serious and that dangerous and they're that crazy, wouldn't

71
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 4: China or Russia would have taken care of that, make

72
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 4: sure they'd never get a nuke. I mean, you don't

73
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 4: think the Russians want to live, Chinese want to live.

74
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 4: I mean it's all propaganda. Yeah, they are religious nuts.

75
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:48,720
Speaker 6: But so what.

76
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 2: Now, Rick, I'm just curious. You said Israel led us

77
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 2: into this war? Why do you believe it's Israel? I'm

78
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 2: just curious.

79
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 4: I mean, if anybody has any doubt about that, I

80
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 4: can't you know, there's nothing you can say. I mean,

81
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 4: you can go all you can read about it, you

82
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 4: can read about this is what they've wanted for all

83
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 4: these and I don't blame them, you know, I get it,

84
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 4: you know, but it's not a This is not our job.

85
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 4: Our job is to take care of Americans going to

86
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 4: spend billions and billions and billions more dollars. People can't

87
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,720
Speaker 4: even afford rent. It's insanity. Are you going to let

88
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 4: these people go over there and get killed? You think

89
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 4: any of the presidents donors? Do you think any of

90
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 4: their kids are going to be over there fighting?

91
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 2: Rick? Thank you very much for that call. I really

92
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 2: appreciated six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight.

93
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 2: Sonny in Plymouth. Thanks for holding Sonny, and welcome.

94
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 5: Good morning, Jet. Thank you my pleasure. I'm I'm a

95
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 5: big fan of yours. I listened to you all the time.

96
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 5: I'm a Trump supporter. I'm a Navy veteran. I served

97
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 5: during the Vietnam War.

98
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 6: Jet.

99
00:05:55,320 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 5: We cannot let h Iran control the straight for MOUs.

100
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 5: We need to finish this thing. We need to send

101
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 5: the Marines in to take carg Island, send the eighty

102
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 5: second Airborne in to take control of all of that

103
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 5: enriched uranium. The Iran's army, the Revolutionary Guard, their morale

104
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 5: is low. They haven't been paid in a month. They

105
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 5: are not going to fight JEF. If they crawl out

106
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 5: of their holes and go on the offense, we'll destroy

107
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 5: them by air. If they dig in and stay on

108
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 5: a defense. We'll drop. Good luck with that. We'll drop

109
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 5: five thousand pound bombs on their head. Right now, they're

110
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 5: recruiting twelve year olds just like they did journey Iran

111
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 5: a Raq war, which is a war crime. We've already

112
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 5: won this. We need to finish it and get the

113
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:58,839
Speaker 5: job done because if they get nuclear weapons, they're going

114
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 5: to threaten the whole region. They're going to use them.

115
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 5: And President Trump is right and we're almost there. We've

116
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 5: already won. We need to finish what we started, Sonny.

117
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 2: Before I forget, I want to thank you for your service,

118
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,239
Speaker 2: you know much. I love I love all the vets,

119
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 2: you know that, but the Vietnam War vets most of all,

120
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 2: because I thought what was done to you guys afterwards

121
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 2: was disgraceful, disgraceful. So anyway, but so Sonny again, thank you, Sonny.

122
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 2: Let me just play you know, I do this to

123
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 2: every caller just so that to flush out people's opinions.

124
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 2: Let me play Devil's advocate. What do you say to

125
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 2: the argument, Yes, we have an incredible fighting force. Yes

126
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 2: we're winning this war, no question. Iran militarily is being

127
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 2: dismantled and degraded. But if you send in eighteen twenty

128
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 2: thousand troops, they're going to be sitting ducks on carg Island.

129
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 2: The Mullahs are waiting for them. It's an ambush. It's

130
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 2: a trap though barrage and with drones, with missiles they

131
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 2: can throw, you know, thousands and thousands and thousands of

132
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 2: Iranian troops at them. And yes, we're gonna kill many Iranians, many,

133
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 2: you know, IRGC troops and soldiers are gonna get killed.

134
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 2: But our boys are gonna come home in body bags

135
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 2: as well. What do you say to that argument?

136
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 5: I personally think, Jeff, we don't fight there. We use

137
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 5: overwhelming force, we're very lethal. I believe that the Iranian

138
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 5: army will be like the Iraqi army and run and

139
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 5: throw their hands up in the air. As I said,

140
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 5: we've already won this, and I think we need to

141
00:08:53,880 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 5: finish it. And I don't believe that the Iraqi army

142
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 5: is any threat to US. I don't believe it they'll fight.

143
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 2: Interesting. Interesting, Okay, thank you Sonny for that call. So

144
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 2: Sonny says, they're demoralized, they're pulverized, they're wounded, they're beaten,

145
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 2: they're humiliated. There's gonna be no ambush that faced with

146
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 2: overwhelming American might and firepower, they're gonna scatter. Many will surrender,

147
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 2: and this will finally taking carg Island and clearing the

148
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:36,439
Speaker 2: strait of Hormoose will break the back of the regime. Agree, disagree.

149
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:42,319
Speaker 2: Let's go to Bruce in Wooburn. Thanks for holding Bruce,

150
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 2: and welcome Bruce, buddy. What do you make of this,

151
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 2: my friend?

152
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 6: What I make of this? Jeb? Now, Sonny's got a brand,

153
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:04,959
Speaker 6: said Rick. He's falling into the trap, the trap of

154
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,439
Speaker 6: the same and the depth, even though he said he

155
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:13,400
