Speaker 2: like the jelly Rolls store and I didn't want to

25
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,280

Speaker 1: He was.

71
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 7: He was notorious for his hosting gigs because he would

72
00:02:57,880 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 7: rip the audience a new one and.

73
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,280

00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 2: hasn't had many after this, I would imagine.

75
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 7: I want to say twenty twenty was his last one,

76
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 7: which is when he went totally scorched earth.

77
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think he even said that. But I

78
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 2: just want to play this for you, just because this

79
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,000

00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 8: If you do win an award tonight, don't use it

82
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 8: in no position to lecture the public about anything. You

105
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 2: has a good she has a good sound. You know,

106
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 2: I don't listen to a lot of her music, but

107
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 2: I've heard it in passing and she's cool, but she's

108
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 2: you know, she doesn't like it here. She doesn't like America.

109
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 9: As grateful as I feel. I honestly, I don't feel

110
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 9: like I need to say anything, but no one is

111
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 9: illegal on stolen land.

112
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,720
Speaker 1: Oh please, Nick, Nick, look at me.

113
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:45,040
Speaker 5: Yeah.

114
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 9: It's just really hard to know what to say and

115
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 9: what to do right now. And I just I feel

116
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 9: really hopeful in this room, and I feel like we

117
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 9: just need to keep fighting and speaking up and protesting

118
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,799
Speaker 9: and our voices really do matter and the people matter.

119
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 2: Guy.

120
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 9: This is all I want to say.

121
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 2: Sorry, and listen to that audience. Listen to this audience now.

122
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 2: I just want to say this, all this blank ice

123
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 2: and everything else is if you come here illegally, that's

124
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 2: a problem.

125
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 1: Right now.

126
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 2: People can look at the fourth and I'm sorry the

127
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,719
Speaker 2: fifth and the fourteenth Amendments find. And this is what

128
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 2: all these judges, these these lower court activist judges do.

129
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 2: They they look at your due process, which you are

130
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 2: owed if you were here in the United States, but

131
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 2: not the way that these particular people, and a lot

132
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 2: of the folks that ice are looking for are the

133
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 2: ones you don't want here, right So, and the process

134
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 2: was totally flawed when Joe Biden created this problem letting

135
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 2: all these people in here. So now you got a

136
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 2: mess and it's ugly and nobody wants to see it.

137
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 2: But I don't need these people lecturing me on how

138
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 2: this all works.

139
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 1: How many? How many did she take into her home?

140
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: Did she?

141
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 5: Did she invite any any of these poor legals into

142
00:05:58,720 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 5: her home and give them?

143
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 2: Why is it when people talk about America and stolen land,

144
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,840
Speaker 2: they think that every other nation just did every other

145
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 2: nation just create itself out of itself and they just

146
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 2: raised up in this utopio.

147
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 1: Oh, nobody thought anybody.

148
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 2: There was never any fights, There was never any nation building,

149
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 2: any nation taking things like that.

150
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:23,239
Speaker 5: No, no, no, sorry, what about the Louisiana purchase?

151
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 1: Now that was paid for?

152
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 5: It paid okay, and then we bought Russia, from uh Alaska,

153
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 5: from Russia.

154
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 1: That was paid for those commedy bastards.

155
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 2: But but why is it that the self important people

156
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 2: And I get it, they've got a rite to their

157
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 2: free speech and this is a platform for them to

158
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 2: say what they want to say. But mine, I remind

159
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,799
Speaker 2: you about this, a woman named kamaa hair Rest. Remember

160
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 2: when she came out and she was annointed queen and

161
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 2: they stabbed Joe Biden in the front.

162
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 1: They didn't even stab him in the back. He saw

163
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: it coming.

164
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 2: They said, you know what, old man, we know that

165
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 2: the people kind of like you, but we know you're frail.

166
00:06:58,360 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 2: We're going to stab you in the front because you're

167
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 2: made us look a fool.

168
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 1: So all of the celebrities in.

169
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 2: The world, man, George Clooney, I'm down the line to

170
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 2: every singer and Oprah, they all brought this showtime at

171
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 2: the Apollo to the Big Barn on West Madison and

172
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 2: they brought out the stars and Beyonce and everybody wanted

173
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 2: to say, this is Kamala, She's the one these stars right,

174
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 2: And you know what, America didn't listen because America doesn't

175
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 2: care what they think, because they don't know what Americans

176
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 2: are going through. They just don't know. At one time

177
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 2: they might have but they don't anymore.

178
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: And I think that's something to think about.

179
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 2: You know, you can complain about the show and not

180
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 2: like the show, and that's your prerogative. I understand that,

181
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 2: but you know, they have a right to say what

182
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 2: they say. And I was I didn't even know if

183
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 2: I wanted to talk about it this morning, but it

184
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 2: bears talking about because this goes on all the time.

185
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 2: Now when we come back from the break, there's two

186
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 2: things I want to talk to you about this morning, Nick.

187
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 2: One tremendous ice storm that hit the mid Atlantic States

188
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 2: and Nashville last week. Still thousands of people without power

189
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 2: in Middle Tennessee. And there's people in Nashville that are tested.

190
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 2: They think the Nashville Energy Company has not done their

191
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 2: due diligence.

192
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 1: Big storm, though, what are you gonna do? Storm?

193
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,679
Speaker 2: Really of a century that seemed to happen every five years.

194
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 2: But John rich has come out with a new song.

195
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 2: We'll play that.

196
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 1: This one.

197
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 2: Our audience will like more than the Bruce Springsteen song.

198
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 2: Sonically it's just John rich out and Nicoles singing and

199
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 2: it's funny. And then the city has come up with

200
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 2: the snowplown names. Yeah, for this year. One of the

201
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 2: snowplown names didn't make the cut. But Brandon Johnson wanted

202
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,559
Speaker 2: this so bad, so bad, and then somebody got ahold

203
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 2: of it and said, might not be a good idea.

204
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: BJ.

205
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 2: Remember you're the lowest rated BJ ever, and think about

206
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 2: think about along the BJ's have been around Nick. That's

207
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 2: saying something. I got a couple text messages here in

208
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 2: three one, two, five, nine, eighty nine hundred City and

209
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 2: Nashville right race. City in Nashville did not want to

210
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 2: pay for union labor from ILLINOI. Entron had eighty six

211
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,719
Speaker 2: trucks ready to go, and Nashville said you had to

212
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 2: take desk truck back to Nashville. Entrant come out all right, Well,

213
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 2: I would suppose union or non union labor. You're gonna

214
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 2: want folks around there, You're gonna have to pay the

215
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 2: pipe or I would think, right when you have what

216
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,320
Speaker 2: was it something like a half million people out of

217
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 2: energy throughout Tennessee, but to Nashville still this morning, about

218
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 2: fifty thousand. That would be the Nashville city proper without power.

219
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 2: One of those guys is our friend John Rich. I

220
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 2: put a call into John to see if he wants

221
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 2: to join us this week because he has a new

222
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 2: song that's going to enter hot rotation here on a

223
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 2: WLSA May ninety. Last week we had a new song

224
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 2: we broke from Bruce Springsteen. The WLSA May ninety masses

225
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 2: said that we should trash it so that may never

226
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 2: see the light of day here on the Big eighty

227
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 2: nine again. But to John Rich singing about global warming

228
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,319

Speaker 3: bills laughing while we freeze, hell.

236
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 6: Gore, You still sure the planet's burning up?

237
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 3: Because everywhere I go, it's off the cold, and the

Speaker 10: drive electric cars and put windmills everywhere.

244
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,439
Speaker 3: Well, I guess they did too good a job. You

245
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 3: just go around my town because the ice is pounding up.

246
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,600

00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 1: lot of fun.

256
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 2: He's standing outside in the cold with a guitar and

257
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:44,440

00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 2: area in the midwestern Chicagoland per se coldest stretch of

00:13:59,280 --> 00:13:59,439
Speaker 1: Right.

298
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 2: I want to name some snowplows hosted by the cities

299
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 2: Department of Streets and Sanitation. Didn't choose to have a

300
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 2: guy on all the time here that was like a

301
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,319
Speaker 2: Streets and Sanitation guest that was reveting.

302
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,800

305
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,720

306
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 2: that this didn't make it, but according to different news outlets,

307
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 2: the snowplow abolish ice is in consideration. It's it's leading

308
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 2: the list.

309
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: I think.

310
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,000

00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 2: city is just full of idiots. I'm going to read

312
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 2: something this morning at six fifty six fifty. It was

313
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:51,120

315
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,280

316
00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 2: don't hold back what they think about Brandon Johnson. If

317
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 2: you think this is all some coalice kumbay, a moment

318
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 2: between law enforcement being told what to do by his

319
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 2: lunatic mayor, this activist mayor and not working with federal authorities,

320
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 2: I think you're seeing some major pushback from the police

321
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 2: officers that know what they need to do to help

322
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 2: work with fellow law enforcement. Caleb Chillims, Now, that's okay.

323
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 2: Chance the scraper, eh, Kevin mcplowster MANI the piping plower, No,

324
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 2: that's okay. Yeah, I'm just ticked off that they never

325
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 2: choose mine. How does the how does the how is

326
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 2: a plow called? This is in Florida? Make the list?

327
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 2: That's dumb.

328
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 6: What's your buddy plower? I hardly know her?

329
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 1: Wow?

330
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, they never choose that one. Every year I submit

331
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 7: it every year they say I should be on a register.

332
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: Last year in Kansas City.

333
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 2: Uh, my producer when I was still working, and we

334
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 2: came up with one and it was simple. I think

335
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 2: it had been done before. And like I always say,

336
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 2: if you steal from me, you're stealing twice. Yeah, we

337
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 2: put in sled Zeppelin.

338
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 6: Yeah that he was good.

339
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 1: I let that.

340
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 11: Yeah, okay, hold on, please hold on, hold on today God,

341
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 11: back to the Hog in the Hole, back to punk

342
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 11: Satani film, not just the past.

343
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 6: So I suppose this party could use a forecast.

344
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 7: It is my job this February two to look to

345
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 7: the skies and report back to you that there is

346
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 7: a shadow.

347
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 6: Here on my ground.

348
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 2: Six more weeks of winter about Okay, well, there you go.

349
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 5: Who is the that's been groundhog? Updates twenty twenty six

350
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 5: Back to you, right, you.

351
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: Know, thank you, Nick. That's awesome.

352
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 2: You you want to see meteorologists get pissed off.

353
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 12: Now.

354
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 2: Cheryl Scott seems to have fun with this, but a

355
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 2: lot of other people take this thing so seriously. They're

356
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 2: like a roadent dozen forecasts. No, it's fun, have a

357
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 2: little fun every now and then. And there's a couple.

358
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 2: I should mention the guy's name, but we had him

359
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 2: on one time when I was doing a weekend show

360
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 2: here at WLS with Wendy and he was one of

361
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 2: Wendy's buddies, and we were talking about climate change, and

362
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 2: we went back and forth and and I don't think

363
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 2: he'll ever talk to me again after that conversation, it's

364
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 2: like you just got to take it easy. Phil Flynn,

365
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 2: our friend from the Price Futures Energy Group, is going

366
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 2: to talk to us. So he's also a contributor of

367
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 2: Fox Business. Tariffs over the energy supply have really put

368
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,879
Speaker 2: some trouble faces on those in Iran in Cuba, and

369
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 2: today we learned that there are talks now between Iran

370
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 2: and Trump.

371
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 1: This could be good. That's what we want.

372
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 2: And with that in mind, let's bring in our friend

373
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 2: Phil Flynn. Phil is the energy analyst and Price Futures

374
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 2: Group and he's a contributor to Fox Business.

375
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 1: Phil, good morning.

376
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 13: I saw my shadow this morning.

377
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 1: It just did what does that mean? What does that mean?

378
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: When you see your shadow in my in your house?

379
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 13: That means about leaving the house for another six weeks.

380
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 13: I'm just going to stay in here.

381
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: I'm not going to leave breaking news.

382
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,679
Speaker 13: Well, it seems kind of bombing today, you know, compared

383
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:12,639
Speaker 13: to what we've been used to.

384
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 2: Right, Bill Flynn has seen his shadow. If I see

385
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 2: my shadow today at noon, it's six more weeks of

386
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 2: abstinence in our house.

387
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 1: It's a lot of fun. Phil.

388
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 2: It's been a it's been a heck of a start

389
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,719
Speaker 2: to the year. Phil, tell me what the tariffs over

390
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 2: the energy supply looks like. When you talk about Venezuela,

391
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,359
Speaker 2: where we are with that. I know that this is

392
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 2: going to affect Cuba. Cuba's worried. Iran has actually said

393
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 2: that they may be in talks with President Trump. We've

394
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 2: got that breaking news today, so kind of a put

395
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 2: put it all together and put a bow on it

396
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 2: for me if you will.

397
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:44,959
Speaker 13: Well, I put a bow on it. All of the

398
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 13: things you've mentioned actually caused prices for energy to fall

399
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,480
Speaker 13: pretty dramatically. You know, we had a big run up

400
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 13: last week. Ray. You know, there was a lot of

401
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 13: concerns that Donald Trump was going to attack Iran, the

402
00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 13: heavy armada on the way right, and the market was

403
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:05,400
Speaker 13: all ginned up. But almost miraculously, you know, now we're

404
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,719
Speaker 13: in talks with Iran after they slaughtered all their people,

405
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 13: so you know, there's a lot of questions being raised.

406
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 13: But you know, the prices went down, and if we

407
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 13: see a stabilization, you know with Iran, you know, then

408
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 13: we're just going to start counting those barrels that are

409
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 13: coming from Venezuela and a lot more barrels than the

410
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 13: nay Sarah said would come. That's going to stabilize prices

411
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 13: over here. And then if you look at the big picture,

412
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 13: you know, when it comes to the tariff situation, we're

413
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,400
Speaker 13: winning the tariff war because our trade deficits going down.

414
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 13: That's given the economy a boosts. So you know, kind

415
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 13: of the perfect scenario for lower prices today.

416
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:46,880
Speaker 2: Where do you think, and I know you can turn

417
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 2: over the tea leaves are looking your crystal ball right

418
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 2: there in front of you, where do you think oil

419
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 2: prices end up by that so important summer driving season.

420
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 2: We always hear about that, right, you get the winter

421
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 2: blend going right now, do you think that, uh, the

422
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:02,439
Speaker 2: summer blend will increase decrease?

423
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 1: Can you can you look this far out?

424
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,360
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean we're going to add a little bit

425
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 13: for the summer driving season. But having said that, I

426
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,879
Speaker 13: think the prices for gasoline this summer are going to

427
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:18,360
Speaker 13: be the cheapest they've been in years, maybe since twenty twenty.

428
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 13: You know, I think we're in this new era of

429
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 13: lower gasoline prices, partly because of drill, baby drill. But

430
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 13: you know the way that you know, President Trump continues

431
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,400
Speaker 13: to keep the market off kilter here a little bit

432
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:31,640
Speaker 13: when it comes to supply. Now, we got a big

433
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,640
Speaker 13: announcement from OPEK. You know, a lot of people were

434
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,640
Speaker 13: concerned that OPEK was going to you know, cut production

435
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 13: and drive prices up. They didn't do that. They could

436
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 13: prices and production where it is. So really the outlook

437
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,880
Speaker 13: for the summer driving season looks very attractive. Now, yeah,

438
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:50,640
Speaker 13: you're going to add on a few pennies for that

439
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,919
Speaker 13: special gasoline, you know, just but yeah, at the end

440
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 13: of the day, I think prices are going to be

441
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 13: really cheap.

442
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 2: So tell me about the permium basis. I've been learning

443
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,160
Speaker 2: about this online. Man, Is there still that much oil

444
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 2: left in Texas? And Texas far and away the biggest

445
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 2: oil producing state, or does Alaska get thrown in there.

446
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 13: No, I think Texas is and there is a lot

447
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 13: of oil down there. Now, there are some concerns by

448
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 13: some people that, you know, they're drilling it too fast,

449
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 13: and that they're drilling the supplies down. There's even a

450
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 13: bigger concern because prices are low, people are going to

451
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 13: stop drilling out there. But I think there's a substantial

452
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 13: amount of oil in those basins. And I'll tell you

453
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 13: something you know, years ago everybody gave up on the

454
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 13: shall oil. It's say, oh it's too expensive, you can't

455
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 13: get it out of there. But the technologies change. It

456
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 13: changed the world, and that's what we're seeing right now.

457
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,719
Speaker 13: So you know, I would not underestimate the ability of

458
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 13: those basins to continue to produce for maybe another one

459
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 13: hundred two hundred years, long after we're gone.

460
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:55,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, a friend of mine that was in the oil

461
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 2: and shale business, specifically, he was at the forefront of

462
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,399
Speaker 2: what they call fracking. I'm sure they're a lot of

463
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 2: people that want to kill him. But he had moved

464
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 2: to Cabo because he'd done well, he made his money,

465
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 2: and boy he moves back in Texas now because it's

466
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,120
Speaker 2: going on big down there and he's going to take

467
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 2: a part in it. But yeah, you know, and I've

468
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 2: only learned about this from a landman. Phil flynnis here

469
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 2: contributed to Fox Business Energy analyst Price Futures Group.

470
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 6: Phil.

471
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 2: On Saturday, we do a little show here called Drive Chicago,

472
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 2: and in one of our news segments, we were talking

473
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 2: about how we know that Mark Karney and President Trump

474
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,680
Speaker 2: aren't fond of each other. But Mark Karney has struck

475
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 2: a deal with China to import Chinese EV's at a

476
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 2: very low taxation rate, and many people think this will

477
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 2: decimate the car population in Canada like it has in Europe.

478
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,679
Speaker 2: Why in the world would they want to bring a

479
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 2: Chinese ev to the fifty first state here in Canada

480
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 2: to do that. It seems like a fool hearted proposition

481
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 2: right now with where EV's are going in the price

482
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,880
Speaker 2: of fuel that you just uh, you know, walked out

483
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 2: and told us we're going down it did.

484
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 13: I mean, the only reason mrccarney's doing it is to

485
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 13: try to get back at Donald Trump and mister Carney.

486
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 13: He was widely criticized for moving towards the Chinese. It's like,

487
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,120
Speaker 13: you know, I wrote a report. It's like, hey, Mark

488
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 13: Carney's moving closer to communism, right because he is. He's

489
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 13: moving more towards communists China. He is very liberal, and

490
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 13: I'll tell you a lot of the people in the

491
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,879
Speaker 13: energy industry in Canada are just you know, ripping their

492
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 13: hair out. They don't understand this. They think it's wrong,

493
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 13: you know. At the same time, he's fighting the energy

494
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 13: industry in Canada, trying to reduce their ability to produce

495
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 13: oil in the future, you know, get pipelines approved. So

496
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 13: Carne is just an anti fossil fuel zealot and he

497
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 13: can't really come out and say that because he needs

498
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 13: the votes in Alberta. But at the end of the day,

499
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 13: that's what he is. And you know, a typical globalist

500
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 13: who wants to you know, you know, run the world

501
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 13: on you know, fairy dust and wind and basically you know,

502
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 13: you know, make the cost of energy wildly expensive.

503
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 2: Appreciate you, Phil, Yeah, you got to get that Alberta vote.

504
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 2: There's a lot of oil up there in those sands.

505
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:15,679
Speaker 2: We know that as a fact. When we see on

00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 2: is Stephanie.

526
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 1: Who is she? She's nuts.

527
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:14,439
Speaker 2: You have to log on. I'm a socials kid and

528
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 2: I can't do the voice this morning because of the

529
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 2: condition I'm in.

530
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: I understand.

531
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 2: So we're out at the boat show and she actually

532
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 2: showed up in basically a bikini or a onesie that

533
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 2: said mom bought on it, and she's walking. People are

534
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:29,920
Speaker 2: looking at her like, what the hell is that woman doing?

535
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 2: She don't care, she doesn't care. Then we got her

536
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 2: out to a into the I guess it's a stand

537
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,360
Speaker 2: up paddle board area, and granted the water is only

538
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 2: like a fifteen inches deep, but I wanted to see

539
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,159
Speaker 2: her go in. There was this kid in there and

540
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 2: he was a brat, probably like one of your kids,

541
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 2: probably about the same age too. And I told the kid,

542
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 2: I go, I'll give you a hundred bucks you get

543
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 2: her in the water, and then he started bumping her

544
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,639
Speaker 2: board and I thought, maybe that's not a good idea.

545
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 2: Then he called it off, but I said, I go, staph,

546
00:25:58,520 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 2: you know I should probably not be here.

547
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,440
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sick. Yeah, And she's like, oh, you're having fun.

548
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 1: It's good, it's fun.

549
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 2: And then ten minutes later she looks at me, she goes,

550
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 2: you don't look so good.

551
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 5: You think, no, kid, you've been trying to tell her

552
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 5: that sounds like Thursday.

553
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.

554
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 2: So if anybody can swing by here with a nebulizer

555
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 2: and some pregnant zone, I'd appreciate it. I've got the

556
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:28,639
Speaker 2: pregnant zone. I just need the nebulizer. Earlier, I was

557
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,719
Speaker 2: talking about a seven to twenty one giveaway, and I

558
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 2: don't think I finished my thought on that. So what

559
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 2: we have is we have the Black Crows and Whiskey

560
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:39,040

Speaker 5: We'll make you a winner here on the Big eighty

566
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 2: Do you follow Bruski's Marine Recovery out of the Chain

567
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 2: of Lakes area.

568
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,479
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're one of the bigger what would you call

569
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 5: it marine, I guess.

570
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,159
Speaker 2: Tell me about your weekend up near the chain and

571
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,400
Speaker 2: what you saw from your vantage point up there near

572
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 2: the Norgey ski jump, because you said it was just

573
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 2: just bustling.

574
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:13,440
Speaker 5: This week happen and there was a ton of snowmobilers

575
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 5: that actually would pull over, park there on the ice

576
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 5: and come on up to the ski hill.

577
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 2: It was cool, and you were saying that a lot

578
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:24,200
Speaker 2: of folks that have been around for a while they're

579
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 2: at the ski jump hadn't seen activity like that in

580
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 2: quite a loe, quite a while. Yeah. See, even now

581
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 2: you know Wisconsin, Michigan. Up in Minnesota, they get more

582
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 2: economic dolarias out of winter activity cross country skiing, fat

583
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 2: tire biking, snowmobiling, things like that. But I have to

584
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 2: imagine that the Chain of Lakes is probably seeing a

585
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 2: good winner because of that. But the amount of people

586
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 2: that I saw this recovery, these Bruskis pulling out with

587
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 2: their airboat was just ridiculous. When you're on the river,

588
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,119
Speaker 2: be careful around the bridge pylons and things like that,

589
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 2: because there is this thing called the current, and wherever

590
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 2: there's running water and something that's going to make that

591
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 2: water rush a little bit quicker, you're gonna.

592
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 1: Have thin eyes.

593
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,959
Speaker 2: I used to belong to a stomobile club called the

594
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,640
Speaker 2: Broken or River Runners. Back before Broken. Our was really

595
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,359
Speaker 2: a big, big biker bar and I saw things in

596
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 2: a single weekend. I hadn't seen my whole adult life,

597
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:19,680
Speaker 2: and it was just out of control. And this would

598
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 2: have been back in the late eighties. A lot of

599
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 2: Barrington money up there, people with stummobiles that were probably

600
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 2: a little too powerful worlds. It was fun to watch.

601
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 1: Boy.

602
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 2: If we had phones back then and recording, it would

603
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 2: have been in good content. Yet I want to take

604
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:34,960
Speaker 2: it onto a Kissing Me, Florida. If you think you

605
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 2: had to be a bad weekend, let me help.

606
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:36,679
Speaker 1: You out here.

607
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 2: Wasn't as bad as this guy's, although he sounds like

608
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 2: he was having fun when this all started. Osceola not

609
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 2: only a great part of a John Anderson song, right,

610
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 2: but it's the Windsor Hills resort and Kissing Me and

611
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 2: it's a shared hallway with other resort owners and things

612
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 2: like that. Now, this isn't necessarily a time share places.

613
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 2: We're people that have a little bit of money, go

614
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 2: and hang out and have a little fun.

615
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 1: You know.

616
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 2: They call us, they call him snowbirds, right like, we've

617
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 2: got snowbirds around here. Half the Chicago radio population that's

618
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 2: doing morning radio, they're all working down in Florida, complaining

619
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 2: that it's nineteen degrees. So they go out to the

620
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 2: Windsor Hills Resort and they looking for a fifty one

621
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 2: year old guy that's said by one woman to be

622
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 2: well defined because he was naked, that's how she described him.

623
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 1: So good for him, can't miss him. No, But.

624
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 2: They had reports of a guy that was nude in

625
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 2: a hallway. They have pictures of him on a ring

Speaker 2: for fedch Here. Now, we've got a quasi government shutdown

669
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 2: going down. The Democrats want to shut the government down

670
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 2: over ice funding. So what we do is we cheer

671
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 2: for everything that doesn't make sense anymore. Come here illegally, fine,

672

Speaker 2: illegal that's here with a murder record and he just

674
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 2: happens to be out because the safety ac let him out,

675
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,480
Speaker 2: don't worry about them, don't say their name, but we'll

676
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 2: worry about this, this five year old that's now been

677
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 2: returned back to Minneapolis with his dad. And you got

678
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,880
Speaker 2: to understand the whole story about this guy, this.

679
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 1: Liam Gohano Ramos.

680
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:26,000
Speaker 2: He is now a political pawn in the elon Omar

681
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 2: game in Minnesota. He's the new alien Gonzales. And I'll

682
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 2: tell you why this is a farce and a joke.

683

686
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 2: That's a thing that we've all been waiting for. But

687
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 2: now the Dems are pushing back and they don't want

688
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 2: to see a change until there's an investigation that gets

689
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 2: finished with Jerome poulis a messy, a little situation. We'll

694
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 2: out this morning, but it's not fifteen below zero, so

695
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 2: we'll take it. You know, when you look out the

696
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,240
Speaker 2: window and it's twenty six degrees at this time of day,

697
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 2: it's a win.

698
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: What is the temperature right now?

699
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 5: Current temperature? I know you just did it, but I

700
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 5: was out of the room so I didn't hear it.

701
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 5: That's okay. It is that twenty three. It seems like

702
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 5: the temperatures are falling. Was warmer than that when I

703
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 5: was a driving in this morning.

704
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 1: But just take it easy.

705
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,960
Speaker 2: There's a little slippery spots out there and things of

706
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 2: that nature coming up this morning. It's a seven twenty one.

710

711
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 2: coming up very soon. There's a lot of people. Let's

712
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 2: say that Kevin Warsh is a highly qualified and distinguished

713
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,960
Speaker 2: economists with a very very good resume. I guess that's

714
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,680
Speaker 2: a place to start with. E. G antoniir friend, the

715
00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 2: chief economist at the Heritage Foundation.

716
00:33:58,840 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 5: EJ.

717
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: Tell me what you know about mister Warri.

718
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 14: Well, as much as a lot of people have talked about,

719
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 14: you know, things like where he went to school, in

720
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 14: previous jobs he has had, you know, they're looking at

721
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 14: those things on his words.

722
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 15: I mean, I get it.

723
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 14: I understand why people want to look at that and

724
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 14: why they think that's important. But here's what's most important,

725
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 14: and I think what's most qualifying about the guy. It's

726
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 14: the fact that he has consistently been correct. You know,

727
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 14: he was previously on the FED. He did a tour

728
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,840
Speaker 14: of duty as one of the members of the Board

729
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,880
Speaker 14: of Governors, and when he was there during the mortgage

730
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 14: meltdown and the global financial crisis back in you know, seven,

731
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,479
Speaker 14: eight and nine, he was the one who correctly said

732
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:43,000
Speaker 14: what the FED should have been doing, and unfortunately he

733
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 14: was ignored. But history proved him correct. And that's kind

734
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 14: of a theme throughout his career. History has consistently proven

735
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,960
Speaker 14: the guy to have been correct during all these different

736
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 14: decision points, if you will. And in my mind, that's

737
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 14: the most qualifying thing about him, the fact that he's right.

738
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,240
Speaker 2: Well, there you go, stamp of approval from our friend

739
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 2: e J Antoni, EJ. I know that the White House,

740
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:10,239
Speaker 2: especially a Caroline Levitt push back on the Senator Tom

741
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 2: tell Us is a Republican North Carolina, and they say,

742
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 2: in know in certain terms that he's holding America hostage

743
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:21,520
Speaker 2: because he is opposing this guy's pick to the Reserve.

744
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 2: Now not necessarily opposing, but he wants to see this

745
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:28,919
Speaker 2: current fed probe that's going on of Jerome Powell seen

746
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 2: through to the end. What's your conjecture on that.

747
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 14: Oh, dear goodness, I can't believe people even take this

748
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:39,360
Speaker 14: guy seriously anymore. I mean, yeah, he's a Republican in

749
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 14: name only, like he is the epitome of the pejorative rhino.

750
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:48,000
Speaker 14: Let's be honest here, Okay, the guy absolutely hates Trump.

751
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,279
Speaker 14: He has Trump's arrangement syndrome, and it.

752
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:51,880
Speaker 16: Doesn't matter what's right or wrong.

753
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 14: It doesn't matter who is right or wrong. At the

754
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,880
Speaker 14: end of the day, he will oppose anything and everything

755
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 14: related to Trump simply because of his deranged hatred for

756
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:05,839
Speaker 14: the man. And unfortunately that's what we're seeing here now.

757
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 14: Hopefully we don't even need his vote to get somebody,

758
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 14: you know, like wash across the finish line at the

759
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:12,919
Speaker 14: end of the day.

760
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:16,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is a Trump's arrangement syndrome. It is real,

761
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:18,440
Speaker 2: and it's live and well, we see it in Minneapolis.

762
00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:20,400
Speaker 2: We see it in the wake of the Millennia movie

763
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 2: that's had one of the best box office returns for

764
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 2: a documentary in something like ten or fifteen years. But

765
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 2: everybody's like, well, you know, people didn't go see it.

766
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:31,839
Speaker 2: I think that's wrong. This thing's going to end up

767
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,359
Speaker 2: to be doing really well. And this is again part

768
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,319
Speaker 2: of that derangement syndrome. It's e j Antoni here from

769
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:38,280
Speaker 2: the Heritage Foundation.

770
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 1: Ej.

771
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,479
Speaker 2: When it comes to where we are with interest rates,

772
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:44,760
Speaker 2: where do you fall on whether or not fedchair poll

773
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,279
Speaker 2: has been too lax and seeing these things come down

774
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 2: a little bit quicker.

775
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:53,320
Speaker 14: Well, if you look at Pale's own metrics, right, if

776
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 14: you look at when Pal says, when Pal said I

777
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,160
Speaker 14: should say in the past, we're going to increase rates,

778
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:00,920
Speaker 14: We're going to decrease rates, and you look at the

779
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 14: rationale he gave for that, all of the different metrics

780
00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:08,879
Speaker 14: indicate that we should be more in favor of rate

781
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 14: cuts today than we were during those times in the

782
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,799
Speaker 14: past when Powell actually did cut rates. So clearly he's

783
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,839
Speaker 14: not just looking at the numbers. Clearly he is not

784
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,719
Speaker 14: just looking at the economics of the situation. He is

785
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 14: doing this for political purposes. He is yet another person

786
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:29,359
Speaker 14: who has fallen into this whole Trump derangement category. I mean,

787
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:33,400
Speaker 14: look at that, like pseudo hostage video that he decided

788
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:35,839
Speaker 14: to put out. You know, at the end of the day,

789
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:40,560
Speaker 14: if he has simply complied with Congress's requests for information

790
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 14: and not ignored it, and then if he had simply

791
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:47,359
Speaker 14: complied with the dojay's request for information and not ignored it,

792
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 14: he never would have gotten a subpoena. And he knows

793
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 14: that because he's an attorney, he's not an economist, he

794
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,080
Speaker 14: should have known better. In fact, he did know better,

795
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 14: but he did this on purpose for the headlines. And

796
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:02,200
Speaker 14: again because he hates and if you look back, your

797
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 14: own metrics rate should be lower.

798
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 2: You talk about the metrics, you look back to the

799
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 2: Biden administration, he was lowering rights right before the election,

800
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 2: and tell me that wasn't political.

801
00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 14: Well, exactly, that's such a great point. And it wasn't

802
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,759
Speaker 14: even as if they did a slight rate reduction. No,

803
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 14: they did an emergency fifty basis point cut in a

804
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 14: single meeting, and then they followed it up with two

805
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 14: more cuts thereafter. So again this idea that somehow pal

806
00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,359
Speaker 14: is data dependent or politically independent just doesn't hold up

807
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 14: to the facts. And if you look at his own

808
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 14: previously used justification, it's very clear then that rate should

809
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 14: be lower than they are today.

810
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 2: E j Antoni. Great to have the hot take on

811
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,440
Speaker 2: this one. We appreciate you. We'll keep an eye on it.

812
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 2: Thanks for the visit.

813
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 16: Oh, thank you for having me.

814
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,239
Speaker 2: Always welcome here, sir eg Antoni, our friend from the

815
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 2: Heritage Foundation on the Big eighty nine WLS now Nick.

816
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,120
Speaker 2: As we were off of the boat show on Friday,

817
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 2: Mayor Brandon Johnson was working on the fifth floor of

818
00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,359
Speaker 2: the Mayoral office trying to figure out a way to

819
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 2: have Chicago Police and Feds not work together, and how

820
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 2: he can have federal agents arrested here in Chicago. I

821
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 2: want to read you a response. This comes from the

822
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,960
Speaker 2: Fraternal Order of Police in Chicago. Bear with me here

823
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:14,320
Speaker 2: because I love this and I want to read it

824
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 2: in full. Statement is in response to the fifth floor

825
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:20,400
Speaker 2: child's latest tantrum. The only good thing that piece of

826
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 2: toilet paper is no CD or CPD. CPD member will

827
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:30,239
Speaker 2: be required to arrest any federal agents. This is just

828
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:33,840
Speaker 2: more political bluster from city Hall to make the mayor

829
00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 2: feel important, strong, and relevant, of which he's none of

830
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,759
Speaker 2: those things. To demonstrate the level of incompetence in the

831
00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:44,399
Speaker 2: Mayor's office, Corporation Council, in law department. I simply point

832
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,799
Speaker 2: out the line about most immigration matters being civil and

833
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:51,280
Speaker 2: not criminal. Can those running the city be any dumber?

834
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,799
Speaker 2: Entering illegally is a misdemeanor that is punishable by up

835
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:58,320
Speaker 2: to six months in jail. A second is a felony

836
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 2: with up to two years in jail. Only violation that

837
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 2: is civil would be visa overstay. The same guy who

838
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:10,160
Speaker 2: hates the police now talking about the mayor wants to

839
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 2: use them for his personal and political relevance. Lastly, the

840
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:17,280
Speaker 2: real concerning thing is the requirement to make a report

841
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:19,920
Speaker 2: if wrongdoing is alleged against a federal officer.

842
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:21,360
Speaker 1: That needs to be a two way street.

843
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:25,479
Speaker 2: And I will advise members of such citizens can also

844
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:26,440
Speaker 2: be named defenders.

845
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 1: How many times have I sat here, Nick?

846
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:30,799
Speaker 2: We need a citizen accountability board right by the way

847
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:33,400
Speaker 2: these idiots act. Oh and by the way, the media

848
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 2: isn't more concerned about the nation's third largest city being

849
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,479
Speaker 2: driven slowly in the financial ruin?

850
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:39,000
Speaker 1: Are they?

851
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:41,880
Speaker 2: We're going to be exploring the legal jeopardy band Johnson

852
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 2: might be placing our members into. So if you think

853
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 2: there's some Kumbaya moment with local police and Mayor Brandon Johnson,

854
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:55,239
Speaker 2: they do not like this guy. And that is a

855
00:40:55,280 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 2: stinging rebuke to what he did on Friday nine hundred

856
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:06,279
Speaker 2: sounds like more a paperwork for CPD offers trying to

857
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:07,800
Speaker 2: keep Chicago street safe.

858
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:08,120
Speaker 1: You know.

859
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:12,400
Speaker 2: And the other thing last week when Mayor Brannan or

860
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:19,400
Speaker 2: when when Governor Pritzker decided to come up with legislation

861
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,839
Speaker 2: that if Nick Gail calls somebody and says, you know what,

862
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:25,719
Speaker 2: I think there's somebody illegally living on my street and

863
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 2: they're causing some problems.

864
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:28,959
Speaker 1: Well guess what now, you.

865
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:32,839
Speaker 5: Nick Gail are held accountable, which is absolute insanity.

866
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 2: Nuts, Ray, I want to get back to talking about

867
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 2: the plow names. I think Mepka would be a good

868
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 2: one for a plow MEBGA make plowing great again.

869
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:47,120
Speaker 1: I don't think Okay, Donn and Naperville.

870
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 2: One of our very very good listeners, been listening to

871
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:50,240
Speaker 2: this radio station for a long time.

872
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 1: Ray.

873
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,920
Speaker 2: The advantage liberals have as they're organized, and they are,

874
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,239
Speaker 2: they really are. I don't know if you saw some

875
00:41:56,280 --> 00:42:00,680
Speaker 2: of the pictures going around this this weekend of a

876
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:05,360
Speaker 2: U haul rented pickup trucks dispersing very nicely made signs.

877
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:07,719
Speaker 2: You know, they look like they were made it in

878
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,880
Speaker 2: ste print somebody either that or somebody has an inkjet

879
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:14,920
Speaker 2: printer in their basement. That's very nice just delivering these

880
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:17,080
Speaker 2: signs that they've got to cost a lot of money.

881
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,399
Speaker 2: So people we know that this is being funded by

882
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,760
Speaker 2: Alex Soros and his daddy and everyone else, the owners

883
00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 2: of Soros Radio there across the pond here where you

884
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:30,399
Speaker 2: can get Soros on the eights. But back to Don's text,

885
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:32,239
Speaker 2: imagine if somehow We could get a word out from

886
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 2: March for Ice in Washington, d C. I bet five

887
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,839
Speaker 2: million people would show up for that, But who organizes that. Well,

888
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:41,040
Speaker 2: good luck getting anything organized with the GOP here in

889
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:42,839
Speaker 2: the state of Illinois. It needs to be fixed. There's

890
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 2: still a lot of infighting going on. If you want to,

891
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:48,520
Speaker 2: we should probably have our friend Shannon from Awake, Illinois

892
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:50,279
Speaker 2: to talk about some of the stuff that's being talked

893
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:53,319
Speaker 2: about within the politics of the GOP and the state

894
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:56,839
Speaker 2: of Illinois, because it just does not seem to be coalescing,

895
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 2: and that is a problem. I want to read you

896
00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 2: a portion of a piece that was seen in ev

897
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:06,799
Speaker 2: magazine done by our next guest, Taylor Hawthorn. While the

898
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:10,360
Speaker 2: women of Iran fight against the regime, the greatest failure

899
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 2: of the international community is not ignorance of Iranian women suffering,

900
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:19,440
Speaker 2: but the deliberate decision to look away when condemning it

901
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:23,880
Speaker 2: is politically inconvenient. This is a brilliant piece and I

902
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 2: didn't see one person nick last night on the Grammys

903
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 2: say one thing about Iran. All they could talk about

904
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,799
Speaker 2: is f ice ice out. But nobody that I saw,

905
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 2: and I didn't watch a lot of it was talking

906
00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:38,640
Speaker 2: about this. Let's start there with Taylor. Taylor, welcome to WLS.

907
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:41,560
Speaker 4: Good morning, Thanks for having me on, and thanks for

908
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 4: talking about this really important issue.

909
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 2: Wow, what a piece you wrote. This thing is really good.

910
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 2: I wish it I had more time to look through

911
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,680
Speaker 2: it a little under the weather over the weekend. But

912
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:53,319
Speaker 2: why is it that everybody, not only when it comes

913
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:57,560
Speaker 2: to women, but is what Iran has gone through. Nobody

914
00:43:57,640 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 2: wants to talk about it. Nobody wants to talk about

915
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 2: the literal thousands of people dead. But the bravery of

916
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 2: the women that are standing up to this regime is amazing.

917
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 1: Can you take me through some of that.

918
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:12,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think there's a really important concept that we're seeing,

919
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 4: just kind of like what you talked about with the

920
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 4: Grammys last night, right, It's this concept of selective moral outrage,

921
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,840
Speaker 4: and we're seeing that all throughout our society and several

922
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:24,080
Speaker 4: different fabrics. And you know, this concept of selective moral

923
00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:27,480
Speaker 4: outrage is we are I mean, it's very self explanatory,

924
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:30,160
Speaker 4: but as a society, we are selective about the things

925
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:33,360
Speaker 4: that really bother us. Everyone is allowed to have opinions

926
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 4: on things that they care more about our others. But

927
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:39,000
Speaker 4: when you are someone an American, for example, with no

928
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:43,399
Speaker 4: ties to either Iran or Palestine or Israel or kind

929
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,400
Speaker 4: of picked your conflict around the world, and you're only

930
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:48,960
Speaker 4: mad about one of them. It is because you are

931
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:52,760
Speaker 4: being selective about your biases about what you're upset about.

932
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 4: And I think that a big part of this is

933
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:58,440
Speaker 4: because it's the media is not telling that the American

934
00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 4: people or the international community that this is one of

935
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:04,480
Speaker 4: these things that are greenlighted to be able to be

936
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,440
Speaker 4: upset over, and it's actually a atrocity. I don't think

937
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:11,040
Speaker 4: many people really understand just how bad it is and

938
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:14,239
Speaker 4: Iran right now. I mean, it's the projections are up

939
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 4: to eighty thousand deaths in some areas, you know, on

940
00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:19,719
Speaker 4: the lower ends you've got close to twelve thousand. But

941
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:22,360
Speaker 4: in what other conflict or what other area in the

942
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,280
Speaker 4: world are you going to hear the number twelve thousand

943
00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:26,160
Speaker 4: and think, oh, that's not a big enough deal to

944
00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:28,640
Speaker 4: talk about. As the Grammys for these celebrities, where is

945
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:29,800
Speaker 4: Mark Ruffalo's button?

946
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 2: You know, that is a stunning and staggering number. And

947
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,360
Speaker 2: you bring up such a good point because it does

948
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:37,480
Speaker 2: all fall on the media, right what's the big shiny thing.

949
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:42,120
Speaker 2: How can what's going on in Minneapolis outpace this story?

950
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:44,360
Speaker 2: And I had this conversation with my mother. She's older,

951
00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:47,400
Speaker 2: but my liberal sisters talk to her about world things

952
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:49,920
Speaker 2: all the time, and they get it wrong over and

953
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:52,520
Speaker 2: over again. Do you think that there's a faction of

954
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 2: society that are so concerned that they don't know enough

955
00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:58,000
Speaker 2: about Iran and the Great Satan they call America and

956
00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:00,400
Speaker 2: they've got this nuclear program which I'm pretty sure we

957
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 2: decimated that people are just too concerned that this could

958
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 2: lead to some kind of big conflict because I'm pretty

959
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:08,120
Speaker 2: sure that if they are Mada that Trump had put

960
00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:11,040
Speaker 2: together on Friday, had gone after Iran, it we would

961
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:13,200
Speaker 2: have been done with this by today, should.

962
00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 1: They have wanted.

963
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,080
Speaker 4: I think there is a lot there is a smaller

964
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,720
Speaker 4: portion of people that are more concerned about the United

965
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:22,560
Speaker 4: States going to war with Iran, And truthfully, there is

966
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:26,520
Speaker 4: some validity to that. You know, the Iranian proxies, which

967
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:28,839
Speaker 4: a lot of people don't understand. There's a huge fact

968
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,359
Speaker 4: story here, but Iran is one of the number fund

969
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:34,359
Speaker 4: number one funders of terrorism throughout the world. You know,

970
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:38,440
Speaker 4: you've got Hezbola, you have Hamas you have the huge

971
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 4: housies and Yemen, You've got a lot of proxies, and

972
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:45,800
Speaker 4: a proxy is something that carries out Iran's terror around

973
00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:47,800
Speaker 4: the world. Right, So you've got all of these proxies

974
00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,200
Speaker 4: around the world that are being funded from Iran to

975
00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:51,680
Speaker 4: carry out these terror attacks.

976
00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:54,200
Speaker 14: And so I think there's a small portion of people who.

977
00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:57,239
Speaker 4: Are concerned that this could lead to another global war

978
00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 4: on terror where we have thousands of American and Native

979
00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:03,120
Speaker 4: allies live bloss But I really don't think that's the

980
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:06,040
Speaker 4: case here. I think that that's a low hanging excuse

981
00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:08,560
Speaker 4: fruit is why we don't care. But also, at what

982
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:11,880
Speaker 4: point has the United States or the rest of the

983
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,960
Speaker 4: world said, that's not really something that we think is

984
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 4: that big of a deal or that big of a problem.

985
00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:19,520
Speaker 4: We are, whether people like it or not, in the

986
00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:23,160
Speaker 4: driver's seat on international world order, because if it's not US,

987
00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:26,319
Speaker 4: it's China or it's Iran, and you know, they don't

988
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:28,360
Speaker 4: really share the same values that we do here in

989
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:28,760
Speaker 4: the West.

990
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,400
Speaker 2: We talk, you know, there's so many in this country

991
00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 2: to talk about, you know, how oppressed the United States

992
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:36,640
Speaker 2: is and all of these other things, and people are

993
00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:37,359
Speaker 2: always going to leave.

994
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:38,280
Speaker 1: But they seem to stay.

995
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:42,880
Speaker 2: I want you to tell a story of this Masha

996
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:46,120
Speaker 2: a meanie. She was twenty two years old. Can you

997
00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:48,880
Speaker 2: describe to me what to happen with her and Iran?

998
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:53,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, So she just didn't have her head covering on correctly.

999
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:55,880
Speaker 4: And I want you to think about that. She was

1000
00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:59,640
Speaker 4: abducted on a trip with her brother because her head

1001
00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 4: cover wasn't on properly. And then she was beaten and

1002
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:07,279
Speaker 4: killed and put into intensive intensive care simply for the

1003
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 4: fact that her head covering wasn't put on properly. And

1004
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:12,560
Speaker 4: I think that people need to sit with that for

1005
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,440
Speaker 4: a moment and understand that that is not an anomaly

1006
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,279
Speaker 4: for the women of Iran. Many women in Iran aren't

1007
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:22,960
Speaker 4: even Muslim, right, like the Ayatola and the IRGC has

1008
00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:26,799
Speaker 4: inflicted radical Islamic rule on these women, But many of

1009
00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:29,879
Speaker 4: these women are not even Muslim, They're Christians, They come

1010
00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:34,280
Speaker 4: from different ethnic backgrounds, they come from different places around

1011
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:37,640
Speaker 4: the Middle East. And so she was truly killed for

1012
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:40,920
Speaker 4: just not having her hair covered correctly. And where are

1013
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:44,000
Speaker 4: the feminists screaming about that? Even ten years ago? They

1014
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:44,560
Speaker 4: were silent.

1015
00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:46,000
Speaker 1: They just keep their mouth shut.

1016
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:50,720
Speaker 2: And it's it's brutal to think about this whole morality police.

1017
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,160
Speaker 2: Yet here we are in America letting a lot of

1018
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:55,080
Speaker 2: the factions of these people come in here and now

1019
00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:58,160
Speaker 2: start to see and intervene their way in our political way.

1020
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,319
Speaker 2: And I don't think there's anything good that comes to that.

1021
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:04,680
Speaker 2: But hey, you know, melting Pot. I guess I liked

1022
00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:06,080
Speaker 2: it Nick, when people used to be able to come

1023
00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:09,239
Speaker 2: here and we would coalesce as Americans. And I don't

1024
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 2: know if we necessarily see this here, but we're going

1025
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:13,520
Speaker 2: to put this out on our social media because this

1026
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:14,320
Speaker 2: needs to be seen.

1027
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 1: Taylor.

1028
00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:17,759
Speaker 2: This is this is an amazing piece you wrote. Where

1029
00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:19,400
Speaker 2: can we find out more about the stuff you do?

1030
00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:19,800
Speaker 1: Taylor?

1031
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:24,239
Speaker 4: Go on Independent Women, where a group of women who

1032
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:27,520
Speaker 4: gets together and writes about issues like this. We go

1033
00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:29,319
Speaker 4: on TV, we go on radio, and we try to

1034
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,440
Speaker 4: bring awareness to things going on not just around the world,

1035
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:36,480
Speaker 4: but domestic policy issues, to give people an unbiased, you know,

1036
00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:40,399
Speaker 4: unfiltered perspective that's not what the mainstream media tells you.

1037
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:43,359
Speaker 4: You know, the women that I work with half full

1038
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:46,120
Speaker 4: time jobs doing stuff otherwise we don't get paid to

1039
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:48,280
Speaker 4: do this, right, this is work that we do because

1040
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:50,760
Speaker 4: we believe in the importance of it, and we want

1041
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:54,600
Speaker 4: women in America to really understand that you don't have

1042
00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:56,799
Speaker 4: to follow what the mainstream media.

1043
00:49:56,520 --> 00:49:57,640
Speaker 1: Tells you to do.

1044
00:49:57,640 --> 00:50:00,600
Speaker 4: Do not have cognitive dissonance if you're if you have

1045
00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:03,440
Speaker 4: something on the media telling you this is for sure

1046
00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:05,880
Speaker 4: what's happening, and it is not evidence based and it

1047
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:08,920
Speaker 4: is not fact based. Please look at independent women, look

1048
00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:11,560
Speaker 4: at a different outlet, look at a different resource. Before

1049
00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 4: you start voting on things that have true consequential, you know,

1050
00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:19,280
Speaker 4: repercussions throughout this country. You need to be an educated voter.

1051
00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:22,279
Speaker 4: And I'm really proud to be a woman in the

1052
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:25,000
Speaker 4: United States. There is no greater place on this earth

1053
00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:28,120
Speaker 4: for women in freedom throughout the throughout the world. But

1054
00:50:28,200 --> 00:50:30,440
Speaker 4: I think we need to steward that properly, and the

1055
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:33,239
Speaker 4: women of America have a responsibility to look into these

1056
00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:35,160
Speaker 4: things fairly and judiciously.

1057
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:37,719
Speaker 2: She is a visiting fellow with the Independent Women's Center

1058

1065
00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:53,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll tell you what. It's a hard conversation to have, right,

1066
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:55,680
Speaker 2: It's deep. You got to learn about it, and I

1067
00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:58,040
Speaker 2: will tell you that we will put this on our

1068
00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:02,000

1076
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:24,760
Speaker 2: I know that Irish Week is always fun and nobody

1077
00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 2: does Saint Pat's a week and Sat Pat's Day like Chicago.

1078
00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:29,960
Speaker 1: So fire away, what do you have going on?

1079
00:51:31,239 --> 00:51:34,359
Speaker 15: It's a great week for us and for the city

1080
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:36,920
Speaker 15: of Chicago. What we do is we invite people to

1081

Speaker 15: of Celtic music, dance, storytelling with our sins and Nagala

1084
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:50,759

00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:54,799
Speaker 15: Irish people, and this goes back about almost thirty years.

1086

00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:33,000
Speaker 2: and have a Guinness. Military Monday is something that we

1179
00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:34,719
Speaker 2: started here because we want to help folks out in

1180
00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:39,040
Speaker 2: the military community. And my vision for this is always

1181
00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:42,279
Speaker 2: to be more involved. Whether that means helping somebody put

1182
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:44,879
Speaker 2: a roof on their home or helping somebody that's in need,

1183
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:47,399
Speaker 2: that we do that and we like to showcase things

1184
00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:51,440
Speaker 2: that help people out that because you may not always

1185
00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:53,920
Speaker 2: think about it in this way. We think about people

1186
00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:57,400
Speaker 2: that come home and they might have PTSD, they've been uh,

1187
00:56:57,760 --> 00:57:00,279
Speaker 2: you know somewhere serving our country and and think just

1188
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:02,520
Speaker 2: might not be going their way. But for people that

1189
00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:05,120
Speaker 2: live the military life, Nick there's a lot of stuff involved.

1190
00:57:05,320 --> 00:57:08,760
Speaker 2: There's constant moves, there's kids that get uprooted, there's things

1191
00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:12,000
Speaker 2: that are always in constant and perpetual motion. And there's

1192
00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:16,960
Speaker 2: a group that's working together now to take military families,

1193
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:20,320
Speaker 2: veterans and the like and just get them out and

1194
00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:23,240
Speaker 2: get them out and connected with other military families. I

1195
00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:26,240
Speaker 2: want to bring in Kaylee White, is it right, Kayley White?

1196
00:57:26,760 --> 00:57:28,000
Speaker 12: That's right. How's it going?

1197
00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:32,240
Speaker 2: You know these guys, I'm severely medicated this morning, and

1198
00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:34,600
Speaker 2: there was a little okay, so they had a little

1199
00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:36,120
Speaker 2: mix up on your name, but we're good.

1200
00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:36,920
Speaker 1: Kayley.

1201
00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:40,880
Speaker 2: Tell me about explorers for all Blue Star families. And

1202
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:44,560
Speaker 2: I like the way you guys approach this because everybody's

1203
00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:47,920
Speaker 2: view of the outdoors is different, right, Like somebody might

1204
00:57:47,960 --> 00:57:49,800
Speaker 2: want to go fishing. Other people might say, well, I'm

1205
00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:51,560
Speaker 2: worried about how to do that? How do I do that?

1206
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 2: And what if I fail?

1207
00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:53,080
Speaker 15: Right?

1208
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:56,160
Speaker 2: Your deal is just let's get going, Let's get you

1209
00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:57,400
Speaker 2: out there, and we'll take it from there.

1210
00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:02,480
Speaker 12: Yeah. So a first and foremost my professional mission, my

1211
00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:05,040
Speaker 12: personal mission is that everybody deserves the seat at the

1212
00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:09,400
Speaker 12: table when it comes to recreating outdoors, especially the military. Community, who,

1213
00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:12,520
Speaker 12: like you mentioned, have a set of different variables that

1214
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:16,600
Speaker 12: can make things more difficult. Constant moves different. Maybe your

1215
00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:18,800
Speaker 12: spouse is deployed for a year and the spouse that's

1216
00:58:18,880 --> 00:58:21,720
Speaker 12: left behind doesn't feel comfortable bringing their family into the

1217
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:25,080
Speaker 12: outdoors alone. There's a million things. One in four military

1218
00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:27,919
Speaker 12: families face food and security. If your family's worried about

1219
00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:30,080
Speaker 12: feeding your children, chances are that you're not worried about

1220
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:32,840
Speaker 12: how you're going to get outside. So Blue Star Families

1221
00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:36,080
Speaker 12: is a nonprofit and the program that I run, Outdoor

1222
00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:39,280
Speaker 12: Explorers for All, is a nationwide program that selects different

1223
00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:42,600
Speaker 12: locations every year, and at those locations, I do everything

1224
00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:45,800
Speaker 12: in my power to remove the barriers that would keep

1225
00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:48,920
Speaker 12: these families from getting to experience nature. So if they

1226
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:51,600
Speaker 12: apply and get selected, there's no cost for them to

1227
00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:55,760
Speaker 12: participate whatsoever. It's a five event series, and like you said,

1228
00:58:55,800 --> 00:58:58,560
Speaker 12: the outdoors is not a one size fits all situation.

1229
00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:02,320
Speaker 12: Some families may want to know what you know fishing

1230
00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:04,360
Speaker 12: is like, they may want to know how to get

1231
00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:06,880
Speaker 12: the year to go camping. Other families I've met tell

1232
00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:09,280
Speaker 12: me that there is no scenario where they ever go camping,

1233
00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:12,920
Speaker 12: but they really want to go hiking, and so based

1234
00:59:12,920 --> 00:59:17,600
Speaker 12: on that, this series has five different events that kind

1235
00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:22,200
Speaker 12: of cater to different recreation opportunities. So in Chicago this season,

1236
00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:24,440
Speaker 12: we've got a lot of great things to look forward to.

1237
00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:28,320
Speaker 12: I'm partnering with Wounded Warriors Project Odyssey, I'm partnering with

1238
00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:31,520
Speaker 12: the team at Indiana Dune's National Park. We've got an

1239
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:35,880
Speaker 12: event with Cook County Veteran Affairs, Cook County Force Preserves.

1240
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:37,919
Speaker 12: And really this is going to be a great chance

1241
00:59:37,920 --> 00:59:41,120
Speaker 12: for families that are participating to experience what is in

1242
00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:46,160
Speaker 12: their backyard and how they can access it easily, comfortably,

1243
00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:47,000
Speaker 12: and confidently.

1244
00:59:47,240 --> 00:59:49,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's an important point you raise because there's a

1245
00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:52,120
Speaker 2: lot of people that think every weekend you got to

1246
00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:54,040
Speaker 2: get in the get in the tahoe, hook up the

1247
00:59:54,040 --> 00:59:56,560
Speaker 2: bass boat and go five hours to the north or

1248
00:59:56,560 --> 00:59:59,960
Speaker 2: five hours to east, get over to Michigan or whatever.

1249
01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:02,080
Speaker 2: But there's a lot to do right here. So take

1250
01:00:02,120 --> 01:00:04,240
Speaker 2: me through. Let's just pick the dunes. What does that

1251
01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:06,880
Speaker 2: look like for a military family or somebody that wants

1252
01:00:06,880 --> 01:00:09,160
Speaker 2: to and are all do you do all five of these?

1253
01:00:09,200 --> 01:00:10,640
Speaker 1: Can you pick and choose? How does it work?

1254
01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:13,920
Speaker 12: So it is a series that these families are going

1255
01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:17,040
Speaker 12: to apply to participate in Applications open today. The link

1256
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:19,200
Speaker 12: can be found on the Blue Star Family's website or

1257
01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:23,000
Speaker 12: the Blue Star Family Chicago Facebook group. Families will apply

1258
01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:29,040
Speaker 12: applications close March. First, we select twenty Chicago area families.

1259
01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:30,880
Speaker 12: It could be within a maybe an hour and a

1260
01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:34,160
Speaker 12: half radius of Chicago if that's where they're stationed. They

1261
01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:37,280
Speaker 12: get selected and then they commit to participating in this

1262
01:00:37,400 --> 01:00:40,680
Speaker 12: five event series. So as a cohort, we want them

1263
01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:43,560
Speaker 12: to be able to create connections not only with these

1264
01:00:43,560 --> 01:00:46,439
Speaker 12: outdoor resources in their community, but with each other. As

1265
01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:48,760
Speaker 12: you mentioned, moving a lot makes it really hard to

1266
01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:52,080
Speaker 12: put down roots, makes it really hard to create friendships.

1267
01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:54,720
Speaker 12: So part of the program is making sure that they

1268
01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:57,160
Speaker 12: get to interact with other military families in the community.

1269
01:00:57,920 --> 01:01:01,160
Speaker 12: They will participate in these five events, and along the way,

1270
01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:04,800
Speaker 12: they get a ton of cool free specialized gear meant

1271
01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:06,680
Speaker 12: to empower them to be able to get outdoors long

1272
01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:11,120
Speaker 12: after programming ends. So, for instance, in Indiana Dunes, they

1273
01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:13,680
Speaker 12: are going to hike with rangers, They're going to learn

1274
01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:16,920
Speaker 12: about invasive species, they're going to learn about the park itself,

1275
01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:18,800
Speaker 12: They're going to get to hang out with each other.

1276
01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:21,920
Speaker 12: They'll get to go birding, they'll get to learn about

1277
01:01:22,600 --> 01:01:23,320
Speaker 12: different When.

1278
01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:26,400
Speaker 2: You say birding, are they looking for those down piping plovers?

1279
01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:29,840
Speaker 2: Because those things they'll shut the beach down if those

1280
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:30,520
Speaker 2: things show up.

1281
01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:34,040
Speaker 12: They could be I don't know, that doesn't make it

1282
01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:37,720
Speaker 12: sound exciting now, but yeah. So in that case they

1283
01:01:37,760 --> 01:01:40,000
Speaker 12: would be provided everything they can need to make that

1284
01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:44,160
Speaker 12: experience exciting. So they would get free binoculars, free birding guides,

1285
01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:47,680
Speaker 12: free birding trifles, things that really enhance the event and

1286
01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:50,640
Speaker 12: make it feel exciting. We don't want these families to

1287
01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:53,680
Speaker 12: want for anything like they're participating in outdoors floors for all.

1288
01:01:53,720 --> 01:01:57,120
Speaker 12: We want them to have this specialized gear. Something you

1289
01:01:57,120 --> 01:02:00,320
Speaker 12: brought up that's so important is how you talk about

1290
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:03,000
Speaker 12: going five hours north for the lake. Getting outdoors can

1291
01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:04,640
Speaker 12: look like whatever you want it to look like. You

1292
01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:07,640
Speaker 12: do not need to go on an extreme hike to

1293
01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:10,320
Speaker 12: be enjoying the outdoors. You can walk to your mailbox,

1294
01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:12,120
Speaker 12: you can take your kids, put them in the wagon,

1295
01:02:12,360 --> 01:02:13,840
Speaker 12: go for a lock around your neighborhood.

1296
01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:16,640
Speaker 2: That's the grass man. Get out and get outside and

1297
01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:18,560
Speaker 2: touch the grass, is what we like to say. Do

1298
01:02:18,640 --> 01:02:21,479
Speaker 2: you find it and you know We've got so much

1299
01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:25,960
Speaker 2: families that are connected through social media, you know, and

1300
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:27,840
Speaker 2: I get that. You know, when families are here and

1301
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:30,080
Speaker 2: there and you've got to stay in touch, that's one thing.

1302
01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:32,840
Speaker 2: But you know when you get people out and they're

1303
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:34,680
Speaker 2: actually out in their about and they keep that phone

1304
01:02:34,680 --> 01:02:36,760
Speaker 2: in their pocket for four or five hours, that's a

1305
01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:37,920
Speaker 2: mood elevator right there.

1306
01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:42,120
Speaker 12: Oh my gosh. I cannot express enough getting the privilege

1307
01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:44,840
Speaker 12: of watching these families do this series. There was a

1308
01:02:44,880 --> 01:02:48,120
Speaker 12: moment at a camp out last season where I watched

1309
01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:50,640
Speaker 12: kids of all ages, even the teenagers who kept giving

1310
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:53,320
Speaker 12: me dirty looks up until that moment for having them

1311
01:02:53,360 --> 01:02:56,280
Speaker 12: be outside. Nobody was asking for their phones, they were

1312
01:02:56,320 --> 01:02:59,680
Speaker 12: playing tag, fireflies were out, the sun was setting. Those

1313
01:02:59,760 --> 01:03:03,040
Speaker 12: moments stick with the parents and show that you can

1314
01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:06,720
Speaker 12: get your family outdoors. Screens are not required. Everybody can

1315
01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:09,720
Speaker 12: enjoy themselves. There's something for everyone, and really it's just

1316
01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:10,720
Speaker 12: taking that first.

1317
01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:13,200
Speaker 2: Poky, Kaylie, you do have to get a picture of

1318
01:03:12,600 --> 01:03:15,160
Speaker 2: the of the fireflies for the socials.

1319
01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:16,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, gotta do that.

1320
01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:19,200
Speaker 12: Oh if we don't get a photo.

1321
01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:20,240
Speaker 1: Did it even happen exactly?

1322
01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:23,600
Speaker 2: You know, we're going to put all of this out

1323
01:03:23,640 --> 01:03:25,760
Speaker 2: on our social media for you. We love what you're

1324
01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:27,920
Speaker 2: doing here. But before I let you go, and this

1325
01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:31,360
Speaker 2: is Kaylee White. Kaylee is with a Blue Star Families.

1326
01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:33,800
Speaker 2: I know that as I'm on your website right now,

1327
01:03:34,080 --> 01:03:38,160
Speaker 2: blue starfamfam dot org. You can log on and you

1328
01:03:38,200 --> 01:03:40,840
Speaker 2: can find out about research initiatives and things like that.

1329
01:03:40,880 --> 01:03:43,120
Speaker 2: But you said that you don't want families to go

1330
01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:47,000
Speaker 2: without that, so admirable. How's the best way for somebody

1331
01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:49,240
Speaker 2: that wants to help, maybe throw a couple dollars your way?

1332
01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:49,920
Speaker 1: How do we do that?

1333
01:03:51,040 --> 01:03:53,240
Speaker 12: They can reach out to me at my email at

1334
01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:57,080
Speaker 12: k White at blue starfan dot org and I will

1335
01:03:57,120 --> 01:03:59,000
Speaker 12: make sure they go in the right direction. We can

1336
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:00,240
Speaker 12: always use this port that.

1337
01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:00,640
Speaker 4: We can get.

1338
01:04:00,920 --> 01:04:04,720
Speaker 2: We'll put that email out there and we will see

1339
01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:07,160
Speaker 2: if we can to help you guys have a good

1340
01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:10,720
Speaker 2: time with us because it's important, especially for military families.

1341
01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:12,720
Speaker 2: And you know one thing about this Indiana Dunes when

1342
01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:14,640
Speaker 2: you go there. I know a lot of people here

1343
01:04:14,720 --> 01:04:17,440
Speaker 2: take it for granted, but it's so important as to

1344
01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:21,200
Speaker 2: how the lakes were formed, the Great Lakes and succession

1345
01:04:21,240 --> 01:04:23,680
Speaker 2: and things like that is all about how the timbers

1346
01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:26,560
Speaker 2: change just from the sand to maybe one hundred feet

1347
01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:30,120
Speaker 2: away that got different soil and earth pushed into that area.

1348
01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:32,640
Speaker 2: So it is really cool and it's a learning experience.

1349
01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:35,120
Speaker 2: Really nice to make your acquaintance here on Military Monday.

1350
01:04:35,760 --> 01:04:37,160
Speaker 12: Thanks so much, y'all, I appreciate you.

1351
01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:41,560
Speaker 2: Nick Gail in the newsroom, Michael Gray, Thomas Hush that

01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:45,400

01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:59,440
Speaker 2: losing many, many many a coaching staff. O boy, I'm

1358
01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:01,240
Speaker 2: going to talk about to Malani of the film and

1359
01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:03,640
Speaker 2: its debut at the big box office here in a second.

1360
01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:05,680
Speaker 2: We don't usually talk about movies here on the show,

1361
01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:08,280
Speaker 2: but we'll talk about this one. I met is in

1362
01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:11,800
Speaker 2: Naperville has a couple of suggestions for snowplows I met.

1363
01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:14,480
Speaker 1: Good morning, Welcome in sir, Hi Ray.

1364
01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:15,040
Speaker 17: How are you?

1365
01:05:15,080 --> 01:05:17,360
Speaker 1: Oh, we are doing well. You got some plow names

1366
01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:17,760
Speaker 1: for us?

1367
01:05:18,560 --> 01:05:21,520
Speaker 16: Yeah, I didn't even know about this competition, but I

1368
01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:24,040
Speaker 16: got some names that I'm going to submit next year.

1369
01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:27,280
Speaker 16: Number one is going to be the the JB belly

1370
01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:32,480
Speaker 16: Blade and number two is going to be the JB Grifter.

1371
01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:35,800
Speaker 16: So if those two names we're on the list for

1372
01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:38,360
Speaker 16: you know, this voting period, I guarantee one of those

1373
01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:39,280
Speaker 16: who would win.

1374
01:05:39,640 --> 01:05:41,920
Speaker 2: The first one had me hack up a good portion

1375
01:05:41,960 --> 01:05:45,080
Speaker 2: of my loan. Thank you, appreciate you man, thanks for listening.

1376
01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:51,040
Speaker 2: Met out in Naperville where I'm still pretty sure they're

1377
01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:54,280
Speaker 2: not going to get that big data center in because

1378
01:05:54,280 --> 01:05:55,920
Speaker 2: they don't want it. They don't want it messing up

1379
01:05:56,400 --> 01:05:59,760
Speaker 2: the beautiful town that is known as as Nahborville. Oh

1380
01:05:59,840 --> 01:06:02,520
Speaker 2: you know, when we were talking with our guest about

1381
01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:05,800
Speaker 2: Military Monday and getting folks out into.

1382
01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:07,440
Speaker 1: The community and things like that. I look at the.

1383
01:06:09,080 --> 01:06:12,600
Speaker 2: Chicago River right now, which is frozen, and that seldom happens.

1384
01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:14,840
Speaker 2: But I'm also looking at some of the salt trucks

1385
01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:17,680
Speaker 2: go go by, Yeah, And I keep thinking about all

1386
01:06:17,680 --> 01:06:19,360
Speaker 2: the salt and the runoff of all that brine and

1387
01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:21,200
Speaker 2: everything that's going to go in there and really affect

1388
01:06:21,480 --> 01:06:22,800
Speaker 2: our Asian car population.

1389
01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:26,600
Speaker 1: Does it help it or hinder it? I think when

1390
01:06:26,640 --> 01:06:28,000
Speaker 1: the Asian carp.

1391
01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:31,120
Speaker 2: And this has nothing to do with race, it's just

1392
01:06:31,240 --> 01:06:33,920
Speaker 2: what the carp is called the silver carp or whatever.

1393
01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:37,520
Speaker 2: When they ingest the salt, they get four times bigger.

1394
01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:40,720
Speaker 1: Oh that could be a problem. That's problematic.

1395
01:06:40,840 --> 01:06:44,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, you've seen the videos of those things popping up

1396
01:06:44,040 --> 01:06:46,520
Speaker 5: out of the river and you know, people getting smacked

1397
01:06:46,520 --> 01:06:47,080
Speaker 5: in the face.

1398
01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:51,800
Speaker 2: You know, really, you know you can go and do

1399
01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:56,960
Speaker 2: some carp bow fishing. Yeah, but what we should do

1400
01:06:57,480 --> 01:06:59,600
Speaker 2: is we should put a pair of water skis on

1401
01:06:59,640 --> 01:07:03,440
Speaker 2: you and a snowmobile helmet or a motorcycle helmet.

1402
01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:05,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then send you out.

1403
01:07:05,040 --> 01:07:07,640
Speaker 2: There with a with a like a club that's got

1404
01:07:07,720 --> 01:07:09,680
Speaker 2: nails through it, so you can see how many you

1405
01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:12,720
Speaker 2: can catch when they fly themselves into your body. Because

1406
01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:15,640
Speaker 2: it's dangerous. I mean, those things have taken people out

1407
01:07:15,720 --> 01:07:18,120
Speaker 2: yeah there. Yeah, No, they've ruined the river they have.

1408
01:07:18,280 --> 01:07:20,760
Speaker 2: But don't worry. They're nowhere near the Great Lakes.

1409
01:07:21,320 --> 01:07:23,720
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1410
01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:29,960
Speaker 2: A couple of the text messages here with the plow names. Hey, ray,

1411
01:07:29,960 --> 01:07:32,000
Speaker 2: how about this one in honor of a mayor BJ.

1412
01:07:32,560 --> 01:07:34,280
Speaker 2: You know I noticed that us calling him a mayor

1413
01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:38,200
Speaker 2: BJ is kind of caught on. They could they could

1414
01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:40,680
Speaker 2: use a maybe one of the smaller plows and they

1415
01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:42,320
Speaker 2: could call it the little Shrivel Johnson.

1416
01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:47,520
Speaker 5: Yes, maybe that's one of the ones that fits into

1417
01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:49,760
Speaker 5: the alleys, right, Yeah, Ray.

1418
01:07:49,640 --> 01:07:51,800
Speaker 2: Have you seen this picture of Zorn Mendanni and his

1419
01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:59,120
Speaker 2: mom with Jeffrey Epstein and Glane Maxwell. Oh boy, okay, interesting. Now,

1420
01:07:59,160 --> 01:08:02,000
Speaker 2: I want this to be I want this to be real.

1421
01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:06,240
Speaker 2: But I'm told that's an AI enhanced AI photo. However,

1422
01:08:06,800 --> 01:08:10,760
Speaker 2: there is photos that have surfaced of Zoran's mama, who

1423
01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:15,520
Speaker 2: is a movie director with Epstein and Glaine. But as

1424
01:08:15,560 --> 01:08:18,360
Speaker 2: I've said before, just to be fair, people that are

1425
01:08:18,400 --> 01:08:21,760
Speaker 2: in high places hang out with people at our financiers

1426
01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:23,960
Speaker 2: or make money or whatever else. I'm not gonna just

1427
01:08:24,040 --> 01:08:27,400
Speaker 2: like I don't make anything of Donald Trump being pictured

1428
01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:30,519
Speaker 2: with these folks at events in New York, I'm not

1429
01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:33,519
Speaker 2: going to say anything about zoraman Donni's mom because that

1430
01:08:33,720 --> 01:08:36,600
Speaker 2: sometimes is how you do business. We go out, we

1431
01:08:36,640 --> 01:08:38,920
Speaker 2: get our picture taken with people. We don't ask them, hey,

1432
01:08:39,439 --> 01:08:40,799
Speaker 2: have you ever been arrested?

1433
01:08:41,479 --> 01:08:41,759
Speaker 1: Now?

1434
01:08:42,120 --> 01:08:44,439
Speaker 2: One of the guys we met at the at the

1435
01:08:44,560 --> 01:08:46,200
Speaker 2: boat show very well could have been one of those

1436
01:08:46,280 --> 01:08:49,800
Speaker 2: river rats we met some of the folks up there

1437
01:08:49,840 --> 01:08:55,000
Speaker 2: from the Fox chain, who are they are increasingly calling

1438
01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:58,120
Speaker 2: on Nick Ale and Ray Stevens a WLS to get

1439
01:08:58,160 --> 01:08:59,879
Speaker 2: out on the Redneck Riviera.

1440
01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:01,080
Speaker 1: They say that we're not.

1441
01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:05,800
Speaker 2: You know, we serve the area's close to where we

1442
01:09:05,840 --> 01:09:08,400
Speaker 2: live and we don't get up into the Fox River

1443
01:09:08,479 --> 01:09:11,519
Speaker 2: Grove and Fox River area enough. And you know it's

1444
01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:13,519
Speaker 2: our job, Nick to listen to listeners and do what

1445
01:09:13,560 --> 01:09:17,160
Speaker 2: they want to do well. And I think I think

1446
01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:20,559
Speaker 2: that having social Stephanie out around those boats, I think

1447
01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:22,880
Speaker 2: she kind of ingested some of that fiberglass smell.

1448
01:09:23,040 --> 01:09:24,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think she might.

1449
01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:27,040
Speaker 5: I think we're going to be able to get them

1450
01:09:27,080 --> 01:09:30,960
Speaker 5: to let us do it when Lake County Water Sports, uh,

1451
01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:33,400
Speaker 5: you know when this when the boating season opens up.

1452
01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:35,360
Speaker 5: I think we got to make a goal of it.

1453
01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:38,320
Speaker 5: Plus we need to have we need to get some

1454
01:09:38,320 --> 01:09:41,200
Speaker 5: some life into her. I mean she does live. She does.

1455
01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:45,280
Speaker 2: You know where she was yesterday, where she was at

1456
01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:45,879
Speaker 2: the opera.

1457
01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:47,960
Speaker 1: I called her.

1458
01:09:47,960 --> 01:09:50,040
Speaker 2: I said, Steph, I go you you decide if you

1459
01:09:50,080 --> 01:09:52,479
Speaker 2: want me to go on your air sounding the way

1460
01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:56,200
Speaker 2: I do, and and the way I heard her text

1461
01:09:56,240 --> 01:09:58,840
Speaker 2: message was I can't talk right now, kid, I'm at

1462
01:09:58,840 --> 01:09:59,320
Speaker 2: the opera.

1463
01:09:59,560 --> 01:10:01,639
Speaker 1: And I thought, okay, well I was at the opry.

1464
01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:03,880
Speaker 1: Different thing.

1465
01:10:05,280 --> 01:10:10,080
Speaker 2: First Lady Malania Trump's documentary debut on Friday, and by

1466
01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:13,040
Speaker 2: all accounts and purposes, it did pretty well. Now, if

1467
01:10:13,040 --> 01:10:15,840
Speaker 2: you talk to people in the media, which didn't not

1468
01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:18,160
Speaker 2: cover this at all, they hate her.

1469
01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:19,800
Speaker 1: They hate the way she.

1470
01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:22,320
Speaker 2: Sounds, and that's no, I'm not making that up. They

1471
01:10:22,360 --> 01:10:24,679
Speaker 2: don't like the way she talks. So let me ask

1472
01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:26,519
Speaker 2: you this, Nick, Why is it that in this world

1473
01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:33,040
Speaker 2: in which we live that immigrants are good. Every immigrant

1474
01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:34,880
Speaker 2: is here. There's no such thing as illegal. But if

1475
01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:37,280
Speaker 2: you were married to Donald Trump and you could speak

1476
01:10:37,320 --> 01:10:40,640
Speaker 2: six languages and you're somebody that was an immigrant, you

1477
01:10:40,720 --> 01:10:41,200
Speaker 2: are bad.

1478
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:43,599
Speaker 1: So I guess you pick and choose your immigrants don't

1479
01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:44,880
Speaker 1: get it right. They don't like her.

1480
01:10:44,960 --> 01:10:47,640
Speaker 2: But it was the biggest opening for a documentary in

1481
01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:51,040
Speaker 2: ten years in the United States something and a lot

1482
01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:53,000
Speaker 2: of this runs along the lines of what you might

1483
01:10:53,400 --> 01:10:57,920
Speaker 2: think it would. Texas the theaters were sold out, Florida

1484
01:10:57,960 --> 01:11:02,200
Speaker 2: probably the same thing. Illinois not so much, but still

1485
01:11:02,840 --> 01:11:05,559
Speaker 2: it made somewhere around twelve million dollars opening, which was

1486
01:11:05,640 --> 01:11:07,320
Speaker 2: not bad at all for a documentary.

1487
01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:13,200
Speaker 1: Is as far as what we know just looking at

1488
01:11:13,200 --> 01:11:16,479
Speaker 1: what I want to talk about here, not a lot

1489
01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:18,400
Speaker 1: you want to you want a groundhog update.

1490
01:11:18,520 --> 01:11:21,880
Speaker 2: No, No, I do want to talk about this as

1491
01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:23,960
Speaker 2: Senator Chris Murphy, but I'm gonna hold off on that.

1492
01:11:24,479 --> 01:11:27,879
Speaker 2: Senator Chris Murphy is a guy that over the weekend

1493
01:11:28,280 --> 01:11:31,760
Speaker 2: came out and started to talk about Donald Trump's you know,

1494
01:11:31,880 --> 01:11:36,120
Speaker 2: secret police, his gestapo, if you will, and and it's

1495
01:11:36,160 --> 01:11:40,920
Speaker 2: it's it's it's sad that that we've gotten to be

1496
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:43,680
Speaker 2: this way because it seems to me like no matter ever,

1497
01:11:44,120 --> 01:11:46,160
Speaker 2: no matter what's going on, all they want you and

1498
01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:49,879
Speaker 2: I to do is if you and I don't agree,

1499
01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:52,200
Speaker 2: they want us to hate each other. And we can't

1500
01:11:52,479 --> 01:11:55,800
Speaker 2: let that happen. No matter how crazy some of these

1501
01:11:55,800 --> 01:11:58,759
Speaker 2: people are, stay away from them, stay out of your phone,

1502
01:11:59,280 --> 01:12:01,920
Speaker 2: don't respond to them, because they're lunatics, and that's all

1503
01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:05,439
Speaker 2: there is to it. Clean out that throat, Mike Burman,

1504
01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:08,400
Speaker 2: let's get ready to roll here, Mike, you know one,

1505
01:12:08,640 --> 01:12:09,200
Speaker 2: Welcome back.

1506
01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:09,640
Speaker 1: To w LS.

1507
01:12:09,720 --> 01:12:11,360
Speaker 5: I missed these last couple of weeks here. I had

1508
01:12:11,400 --> 01:12:13,760
Speaker 5: a couple of things going on, but.

1509
01:12:13,800 --> 01:12:16,000
Speaker 2: I haven't been to bro I haven't been paying close

1510
01:12:16,040 --> 01:12:18,640
Speaker 2: attention to the to the you know, some of the

1511
01:12:18,760 --> 01:12:22,320
Speaker 2: storylines about the Big Games. So I know both teams

1512
01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:25,080
Speaker 2: are now what near Levi Stadium, are in the area

1513
01:12:25,160 --> 01:12:25,760
Speaker 2: ready to go?

1514
01:12:26,320 --> 01:12:27,519
Speaker 1: Fill me in on what we need to know.

1515
01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:32,400
Speaker 17: Yeah, tonight's the dumb media day where you know, all

1516
01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:37,439
Speaker 17: the weirdo fake media people come out. There's people dressed

1517
01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:40,960
Speaker 17: up as I don't even know what and asking weird

1518
01:12:41,040 --> 01:12:43,719
Speaker 17: kinds of questions and that. That's like the ceremonial start

1519
01:12:43,760 --> 01:12:46,559
Speaker 17: to Super Bowl week. So they'll do that and that's

1520
01:12:46,720 --> 01:12:49,280
Speaker 17: you know, then it's a little more business as usual,

1521
01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:53,800
Speaker 17: settling in for game week prep. You know, big storyline

1522
01:12:54,280 --> 01:12:58,800
Speaker 17: with the quarterbacks is New England's Drake May dealing with

1523
01:12:58,840 --> 01:13:03,120
Speaker 17: a little banged shoulder. Will that impact him, don't know,

1524
01:13:03,240 --> 01:13:06,000
Speaker 17: but he's kind of listed as questionable right now. Sam

1525
01:13:06,080 --> 01:13:09,800
Speaker 17: Darnold's had the oblique injury through the playoffs, but it

1526
01:13:09,920 --> 01:13:13,800
Speaker 17: certainly hasn't bothered him, especially in the NFC Championship game. Man,

1527
01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:17,800
Speaker 17: he was basically perfect. So I'm kind of excited to

1528
01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:22,080
Speaker 17: see this matchup, mainly because I feel like I feel

1529
01:13:22,080 --> 01:13:25,120
Speaker 17: like Drake May is one of those quarterbacks of the

1530
01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:30,200
Speaker 17: future of the NFL, same draft class as Caleb Williams

1531
01:13:30,200 --> 01:13:34,080
Speaker 17: and Jade and Daniels. He went third overall behind those two,

1532
01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:36,559
Speaker 17: and he's just he looks like he could be one

1533
01:13:36,600 --> 01:13:41,120
Speaker 17: of those long term stars, so can he get an

1534
01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:44,720
Speaker 17: early ring. And on the other side, Sam Donald is

1535
01:13:45,120 --> 01:13:48,360
Speaker 17: one of those guys who was drafted third overall. Let's

1536
01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:50,599
Speaker 17: see eight years ago now, and it was a total

1537
01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:54,640
Speaker 17: disaster for him in New York with the Jets, and

1538
01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:58,519
Speaker 17: then he's bouncing around as a journeyman. Catches fire last

1539
01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:02,280
Speaker 17: year with the Viking, but Bow's out in the playoffs.

1540
01:14:02,520 --> 01:14:06,280
Speaker 17: This year, another amazing regular season, and now he has

1541
01:14:06,320 --> 01:14:08,479
Speaker 17: a good postseason to get his team to the super Bowl.

1542
01:14:08,800 --> 01:14:11,200
Speaker 2: The what's the what are the betting markets calling on

1543
01:14:11,320 --> 01:14:12,960
Speaker 2: right now? Because you know you brought it up.

1544
01:14:13,720 --> 01:14:17,160
Speaker 5: The Seahawks look so good and Donald, you know, all

1545
01:14:17,200 --> 01:14:19,000
Speaker 5: he has to do is go out and be decent.

1546
01:14:19,080 --> 01:14:21,080
Speaker 5: And I think this team has a shot at winning.

1547
01:14:20,840 --> 01:14:23,400
Speaker 1: Don't you. I do?

1548
01:14:23,800 --> 01:14:26,120
Speaker 17: I think that I think that Seattle is the better

1549
01:14:26,200 --> 01:14:29,559
Speaker 17: team when you talk about, you know, all three phases.

1550
01:14:30,640 --> 01:14:34,439
Speaker 17: Their defense was pretty nasty during the regular season, number

1551
01:14:34,439 --> 01:14:37,599
Speaker 17: one in points aloud, so they gave up the fewest

1552
01:14:37,600 --> 01:14:42,040
Speaker 17: points in the entire league. And then their offense is

1553
01:14:42,240 --> 01:14:44,839
Speaker 17: really sound all around. They can run it with Kenneth

1554
01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:48,479
Speaker 17: Walker the third and they can throw it too. Donald's

1555
01:14:48,520 --> 01:14:51,360
Speaker 17: been good, and they've got Jackson Smith and Jibba, who

1556
01:14:51,439 --> 01:14:54,080
Speaker 17: might be the best receiver in the NFL. He was

1557
01:14:54,120 --> 01:14:57,519
Speaker 17: second in catches behind poka Akua, who the Bears saw

1558
01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:02,000
Speaker 17: in the divisional round. But Smith and Jigba has been terrific.

1559
01:15:02,280 --> 01:15:04,960
Speaker 17: And I think the question is going to be can

1560
01:15:05,040 --> 01:15:11,160
Speaker 17: the Patriots defense slow down what's been almost an unstoppable

1561
01:15:11,240 --> 01:15:15,000
Speaker 17: Seahawks offense during the playoffs, because if they can't do that,

1562
01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:17,680
Speaker 17: Seattle's going to Seattle might win by double digits if

1563
01:15:17,720 --> 01:15:19,280
Speaker 17: they if they can't play defense.

1564
01:15:19,479 --> 01:15:22,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, I just don't see how anybody beat Seattle. But

1565
01:15:22,479 --> 01:15:25,240
Speaker 5: that you know, that's just a casual observation.

1566
01:15:25,680 --> 01:15:28,559
Speaker 17: And by the way, Ray, because you asked, it's a

1567
01:15:29,479 --> 01:15:32,519
Speaker 17: Seattle's favored by. It started at three and a half.

1568
01:15:32,600 --> 01:15:33,960
Speaker 17: I saw it moved to four and a half at

1569
01:15:33,960 --> 01:15:35,880
Speaker 17: one point, so it's somewhere in there.

1570
01:15:36,720 --> 01:15:39,240
Speaker 2: We can we switch gears now and talk about what

1571
01:15:39,280 --> 01:15:40,840
Speaker 2: we've seen out of the Bears and some of the

1572
01:15:40,840 --> 01:15:44,160
Speaker 2: coaches postseason that have left in the impact that guys

1573
01:15:44,280 --> 01:15:47,720
Speaker 2: like Declan and the Enemy and Al Harris. Going back

1574
01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:51,439
Speaker 2: to the Packers, I mean, these are pretty stout guys

1575
01:15:51,479 --> 01:15:53,919
Speaker 2: that have come in and they've been in this situation.

1576
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:56,760
Speaker 2: They've been in this coaching situation for only a year.

1577
01:15:57,080 --> 01:15:59,679
Speaker 2: Obviously they had success. How do they replace these guys?

1578
01:16:00,840 --> 01:16:03,400
Speaker 17: Well, let's start with Doyle because that's the you know,

1579
01:16:03,560 --> 01:16:06,479
Speaker 17: quote unquote big name since he's the offensive coordinator. But

1580
01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:09,479
Speaker 17: let's not forget Ben Johnson's the guy calling the place. Okay,

1581
01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:13,840
Speaker 17: So you know, I don't think it has as big

1582
01:16:13,880 --> 01:16:19,000
Speaker 17: of an impact as another situation somewhere else where where.

1583
01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:23,200
Speaker 17: It's actually the play calling offensive coordinator leaving and they've

1584
01:16:23,200 --> 01:16:28,200
Speaker 17: been successful. I do think that, you know, Deklan Douyle,

1585
01:16:28,720 --> 01:16:31,560
Speaker 17: I got to tell you this, I am so unsurprised

1586
01:16:32,040 --> 01:16:34,960
Speaker 17: that he and he will be a head coach quickly.

1587
01:16:35,360 --> 01:16:38,599
Speaker 17: I think he's twenty nine, twenty eight or twenty nine.

1588
01:16:39,280 --> 01:16:41,519
Speaker 17: Every time he was up there and I was in

1589
01:16:41,560 --> 01:16:43,920
Speaker 17: the media room this year, I was like, this guy,

1590
01:16:44,479 --> 01:16:47,559
Speaker 17: he's got it. He's just sharp. You know, you could

1591
01:16:47,600 --> 01:16:50,080
Speaker 17: tell that guys are going to dial in and listen

1592
01:16:50,120 --> 01:16:52,880
Speaker 17: to him. And if a guy like Ben Johnson, you know,

1593
01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:57,320
Speaker 17: believes in him, he's probably going to be a fast riser.

1594
01:16:57,600 --> 01:16:59,960
Speaker 17: So I wouldn't be surprised to see him be ahead

1595
01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:02,839
Speaker 17: coach in short order, you know, in his early thirties.

1596
01:17:03,840 --> 01:17:06,479
Speaker 17: The Enemy, you know, the Bears run game for the

1597
01:17:06,520 --> 01:17:10,280
Speaker 17: majority of the season was really good. It fell off

1598
01:17:10,439 --> 01:17:13,400
Speaker 17: late in the year. But how much of that is

1599
01:17:14,120 --> 01:17:16,000
Speaker 17: the guy's carrying the ball? How much of that is

1600
01:17:16,400 --> 01:17:19,640
Speaker 17: the blocking scheme and the guy's blocking. The Enemy is

1601
01:17:19,720 --> 01:17:23,559
Speaker 17: just known as one of those really intense, fiery guys.

1602
01:17:23,600 --> 01:17:25,920
Speaker 17: So I think he you know, maybe they miss a

1603
01:17:25,960 --> 01:17:29,280
Speaker 17: little of that fire. But I also think Ben Johnson

1604
01:17:29,400 --> 01:17:34,080
Speaker 17: on his own is very intense. And if Ben Johnson

1605
01:17:34,120 --> 01:17:37,240
Speaker 17: could put together that kind of staff in his first year, yeah,

1606
01:17:37,240 --> 01:17:39,840
Speaker 17: I don't think there's any concern that he's going to

1607
01:17:40,439 --> 01:17:42,080
Speaker 17: you know, that he won't be able to bring in

1608
01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:46,920
Speaker 17: really competent, good culture coaches that know football that are

1609
01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:50,880
Speaker 17: going to help this team take the next step. So, yes,

1610
01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:53,519
Speaker 17: you wish you could keep those guys. But at the

1611
01:17:53,560 --> 01:17:58,120
Speaker 17: same time, that's a positive byproduct of winning, is guys

1612
01:17:58,120 --> 01:17:59,960
Speaker 17: in your staff advancing their career.

1613
01:18:00,160 --> 01:18:00,320
Speaker 15: You know.

1614
01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:02,479
Speaker 2: I just just to get back to the to the

1615
01:18:02,479 --> 01:18:06,679
Speaker 2: big game. I I just wish, uh the Seahawks, well,

1616
01:18:06,720 --> 01:18:09,600
Speaker 2: because of the quarterback, right they boot them out of

1617
01:18:09,680 --> 01:18:11,280
Speaker 2: Vikings or they move them on down the road.

1618
01:18:11,280 --> 01:18:11,880
Speaker 1: And I get it.

1619
01:18:12,160 --> 01:18:14,680
Speaker 2: They've got this a new prospect and JJ McCarthy, the

1620
01:18:14,720 --> 01:18:17,000
Speaker 2: Vikings thinks he they think that he's going to be

1621
01:18:17,040 --> 01:18:17,320
Speaker 2: the guy.

1622
01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:18,320
Speaker 1: We don't know if that'll happen.

1623
01:18:18,400 --> 01:18:21,240
Speaker 2: He's a local guy, went to Lagrange, uh, and we

1624
01:18:21,360 --> 01:18:23,960
Speaker 2: like JJ, but he came out of Michigan, so that

1625
01:18:24,040 --> 01:18:26,559
Speaker 2: kind of bumms some of us out. But the fact

1626
01:18:26,600 --> 01:18:30,000
Speaker 2: that Sam Darnold is there is just more reasons for

1627
01:18:30,120 --> 01:18:32,719
Speaker 2: us to just rub it in Vikings fans' faces.

1628
01:18:33,000 --> 01:18:34,519
Speaker 1: And I absolutely love it. Buddy.

1629
01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:37,599
Speaker 2: It's always nice to talk to you, and uh, I'm

1630
01:18:37,600 --> 01:18:40,120
Speaker 2: talking to the powers that be here, and we got

1631
01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:42,400
Speaker 2: to get you a little a weekend show or something

1632
01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:44,840
Speaker 2: where you can, you know, show yourself off a little

1633
01:18:44,880 --> 01:18:47,519
Speaker 2: bit more. Uh, you know, for the next several weeks

1634
01:18:47,600 --> 01:18:50,000
Speaker 2: or whatever you need just just to hear your voice.

1635
01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:51,080
Speaker 1: So we appreciate you. Man.

1636
01:18:51,840 --> 01:18:54,120
Speaker 17: Hey, I like that you're working for me to make

1637
01:18:54,200 --> 01:18:54,799
Speaker 17: more money.

1638
01:18:54,880 --> 01:18:56,320
Speaker 1: Well, you know what's always.

1639
01:18:56,000 --> 01:18:58,360
Speaker 2: About that, you know what I think that you know,

1640
01:18:58,479 --> 01:19:00,600
Speaker 2: Chicago media people, when you find I ain't somebody that

1641
01:19:01,400 --> 01:19:02,880
Speaker 2: you like, you got to stick up for each other.

1642
01:19:02,880 --> 01:19:03,599
Speaker 1: And that's what we're doing.

1643
01:19:04,439 --> 01:19:06,880
Speaker 17: Very kind brother. Thank you so much. You guys have

1644
01:19:06,960 --> 01:19:09,479
Speaker 17: an awesome week. I'm just throwing it out there. I

1645
01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:11,519
Speaker 17: am picking the Seahawks. I don't know if you guys

1646
01:19:11,520 --> 01:19:13,800
Speaker 17: gotta let me go right now, but would love to

1647
01:19:13,800 --> 01:19:14,960
Speaker 17: hear your guys' picks too.

1648
01:19:15,120 --> 01:19:16,519
Speaker 1: No, no, I'm a Seattle guy.

1649
01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:18,280
Speaker 2: Nick, you have any skin if you've been watching any

1650
01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:19,280
Speaker 2: of this, are you?

1651
01:19:19,280 --> 01:19:19,519
Speaker 1: You know?

1652
01:19:19,600 --> 01:19:21,200
Speaker 2: And again, I would have to look at it a

1653
01:19:21,200 --> 01:19:23,320
Speaker 2: little bit closer, because this is what you do, Mike.

1654
01:19:23,360 --> 01:19:26,720
Speaker 5: I'm a casual observer. The NFL still still is not.

1655
01:19:26,840 --> 01:19:27,120
Speaker 1: I'm not.

1656
01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:29,960
Speaker 2: They haven't won me back yet. That kneeling thing pisses

1657
01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:32,400
Speaker 2: me off. The virtue singingly on the back of the humus.

1658
01:19:32,439 --> 01:19:33,479
Speaker 2: But I don't want that to.

1659
01:19:34,320 --> 01:19:37,320
Speaker 5: Ruin a good, good bear season or a fun that

1660
01:19:37,400 --> 01:19:40,559
Speaker 5: we have watching the super Bowl in that that surrounds it.

1661
01:19:40,600 --> 01:19:42,479
Speaker 17: So they're not going to let that ruin your your

1662
01:19:42,479 --> 01:19:44,960
Speaker 17: guacamole and your chicken wings and your pizza.

1663
01:19:45,040 --> 01:19:47,000
Speaker 2: Come on, be quite honest with you, that weekend, I'll

1664
01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:48,160
Speaker 2: probably be on a snowmobile.

1665
01:19:48,640 --> 01:19:51,680
Speaker 5: Go ahead there, I'm gonna go with the Seahawks, just

1666
01:19:51,720 --> 01:19:54,479
Speaker 5: so you won't yell at me if I were to

1667
01:19:54,520 --> 01:19:58,559
Speaker 5: pick the Patriots, and you know, make me out to

1668
01:19:58,560 --> 01:20:00,840
Speaker 5: be a loser. Yet you're go with the Seahawks. I'm

1669
01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:02,200
Speaker 5: going with the Patriots.

1670
01:20:02,439 --> 01:20:03,000
Speaker 6: Go Pats.

1671
01:20:04,400 --> 01:20:11,320
Speaker 1: What's the bet going to be? I don't think I

1672
01:20:11,400 --> 01:20:14,040
Speaker 1: don't think we need Thomas You you you chimed in there.

1673
01:20:14,120 --> 01:20:17,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, go Pats. My dad was a Patriots fan.

1674
01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:26,240
Speaker 1: Michael probably going with Budweiser, right, Butterweiser. I'm betting Bud Okay.

1675
01:20:26,800 --> 01:20:30,439
Speaker 2: Whoever you're picking, I'm taking the opposite gale and there

1676
01:20:30,479 --> 01:20:33,080
Speaker 2: will be a bet, okay, and you will pay off.

1677
01:20:34,120 --> 01:20:34,839
Speaker 1: Thank you, Michael.

1678
01:20:35,439 --> 01:20:37,120
Speaker 17: All Right, guys, take it easy. We'll talk to you

1679
01:20:37,160 --> 01:20:37,519
Speaker 17: next week.

1680
01:20:37,640 --> 01:20:39,880
Speaker 2: Have a great day, pal Bad Bunny. This is the

1681
01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:42,680
Speaker 2: year super Bowl halftime show. That's what's going on. Big

1682
01:20:42,720 --> 01:20:47,280
Speaker 2: Grammy winner. Last night at the Grammy Awards, Bad Bunny

1683
01:20:47,320 --> 01:20:49,040
Speaker 2: won for Album of the Year. I believe that's the

1684
01:20:49,080 --> 01:20:54,439
Speaker 2: first time a all Hispanic album has won. So you

1685
01:20:54,560 --> 01:20:56,640
Speaker 2: like this stuff, Nicky, you're gonna put this on your

1686
01:20:56,640 --> 01:20:57,680
Speaker 2: Spotify playlist?

1687
01:20:59,200 --> 01:21:02,400
Speaker 5: Not really, No, I usually I like to I'm one

1688
01:21:02,439 --> 01:21:04,599
Speaker 5: of those guys that listens to the words in a song.

1689
01:21:04,680 --> 01:21:07,439
Speaker 1: I'm listening to these words. I'm kind of hard to unders.

1690
01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:14,160
Speaker 1: I don't speak Spanish. There we go the e I

1691
01:21:14,280 --> 01:21:20,760
Speaker 1: O paulk e I oh hey, oh gosh.

1692
01:21:20,800 --> 01:21:22,760
Speaker 2: I can't tell you how many weddings I went to

1693
01:21:23,040 --> 01:21:26,000
Speaker 2: in my family at the Bohemian Crystal where they were

1694
01:21:26,040 --> 01:21:28,679
