1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:01,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is. Maybe it's our time when we love it.

2
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: We do the pledge of allegiance each and every morning

Speaker 1: here because we love America. And today one of our

Speaker 1: it to our text line and it goes by to

00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: five nine, one eighty nine hundred. Good morning, Nick, Nicholas Gale.

16
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 1: How are you, sir?

17
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:45,239
Speaker 3: I'm doing well.

18
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,199
Speaker 1: Are you ready to gather around the ramblin while I

19
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,480
Speaker 1: do a little storytelling? Yeah, I feel like we should

20
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: have a fire, especially in this weather. But to let's

21
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 1: gather around. I want to tell you a story, a

22
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 1: story about a young man named John. And listen in

23
00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: here is you kind of watch and we take a

24
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: journey with John's young life to where his life ends up.

25
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: And this might be the way that a news outlet

26
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,839
Speaker 1: would position John, whom we are going to talk about

27
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 1: right now. John was from Chicago. He was from the

28
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: Norwood Park area. I didn't do well in high school

29
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 1: by any stretch of the imagination. But he got his

30
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: stuff together and he attended the Northwestern Business College. Now

31
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,559
Speaker 1: that's not the Kellogg Business School at Northwestern. This is different, okay,

32
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 1: but it was a pretty good college. I think it

33
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 1: was in existence for around one hundred and two years

34
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 1: here in Chicago Land and he Whitney, got his business

35
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: degree there. Now, as he went on, thanks for that fire.

36
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: See that warms the cockles of the high heart, and

37
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,680
Speaker 1: cockles might play into this story in a little bit.

38
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:49,559
Speaker 1: So a John as he went and started his life again,

39
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,559
Speaker 1: just goes to show that you might have a little

40
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: trouble at this portion of your life, but if you

41
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: get things back on track, you can go and you

42
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: can get yourself a pretty decent job. So in nineteen

43
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: sixty four, John from Norwood Park and now a graduate

44
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: of the Northwestern Business College, got a gig with the

45
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 1: none Bush Shoe company. And let me tell you something,

46
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 1: back in nineteen sixty four, you could make yourself a

47
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 1: nice living. Sure, you could ask Gal Bundy about the

48
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: living he made for his family.

49
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 3: You know.

50
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: After that storied career, he had at polk Hi working

51
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 1: and selling shoes. But in nineteen sixty four, the company

52
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 1: transferred John to Springfield, Illinois to work as a salesman.

53
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 1: They eventually promoted him to department manager. John was doing okay,

54
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: he was on the fast track to success. That's where

55
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 1: he met a coworker. Now around here, you can't do that, no,

56
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 1: you know, you don't dip the old pen in the

57
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 1: company incause they like to say right. So he met

58
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 1: his coworker because that back then it didn't matter. They

59
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 1: didn't know what the LHR was. We're still making bombs.

60
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: So he married Marilyn Myers. During their courtship, he joined

61
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 1: the local chapter of the j c's. Now here's a

62
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: guy that found give him back his lady, Yeah, aren't you?

63
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,799
Speaker 1: And you're a lion right, yeah, I'm.

64
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 3: Starting to worry about you.

65
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 1: But he had joined the local chapter of the JCS,

66
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: to whom he frequently devoted his time and effort to

67
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 1: the community. And fundraising product projects. He had risen to

68
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 1: the position of vice president of the Springfield jay Season

69
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: and was named the third most outstanding jay Z in

70
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: the state of Illinois. John and Maryland had things going

71
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 1: their way until something from his past messed him up,

72
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: and he went on to kill thirty three young men

73
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: and kids boys and bury them in his Norwood Park home.

74
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 1: Only reason I say this to you is because you

75
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: can take anybody and make their story of who they

76
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 1: are seem like it's a shining story of success.

77
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 3: Right. Did the Clown Union come out.

78
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: And say day off today for John Wayne Gacy? No,

79
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 1: because the guy was a murderous fool. Now, I don't

80
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: portend to lump Alex pretty into that kind of situation, right,

81
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: But all I'm saying is this is the media will

82
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: spin anything they can way they want to make somebody

83
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: seem something they might not be. Again, I am not saying,

84
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: and I don't think anybody in this country, unless there's

85
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: something wrong with you, wants to see somebody die at

86
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: the hands of an officer. Officers don't wake up and

87
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: say you know what today, I think I'm gonna take

88
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 1: somebody's life out run mine room, my career. But this

89
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 1: thing where you have everybody talking about this person like

90
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 1: he was some kind of shining star into his family

91
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 1: and friends. He very well could have been born and

92
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: raised in the Chicago area, right moved to Green Bay

93
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 1: where things got a little dicey for him because he

94
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: guess he became a packer fan. You know, I'm kind

95
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 1: of paying an attention to a trend here. Packer fan

96
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,719
Speaker 1: guy gave this gacy guy gave.

97
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 3: His life the JZS. You're a lion.

98
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 1: Oh my god, this guy could crack at any time

99
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: right over here. But to say and to have nurses

100
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 1: and hold vigils for a guy who was an agitator,

101
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: who would spit upon police officers, ice officers, whether you

102
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: like them or not, they have a job to do

103
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: and they're doing their job as set forth by the

104
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 1: US Constitution. You may not like that, you don't have

105
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: to like that. But to go to the point of

106
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: arrest memfor and we know that he did that last week.

107
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 1: He had ribs broke when he was tackled. Because you

108
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 1: can't wreck government property, you can't kick out tail lights

109
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,280
Speaker 1: of cars, You can't do that kind of thing and

110
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: not think that there's going to be some kind of repercussion.

111
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: But today in Chicago and across the country, and in

112
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: Minneapolis more exact, they're having a general shutdown because they

113
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: want to honor the life of Alex Preddy. So it's

114
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: not gone to waste this nurse, this good guy, this everyman.

115
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,799
Speaker 1: And remember, everyone can spin a story to make somebody

116
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 1: seem something that they weren't. But look at what happened

117
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: here and understand that if you do silly and stupid things,

118
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: you may pay a price for that. I'm not saying

119
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: that kicking a car or a tail light out on

120
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: I get you dead. I'm not saying that at all.

121
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: But play stupid games, win stupid prizes. How many times

122
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: have we had to say that started crazy? Work backwards?

123
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: See where it might get you. But the news media

124
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 1: spends it like this all the time. Now there's a

125
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: couple of coffee shops and things like that that aren't

126
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 1: going to open today in Chicago because you know what,

127
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: they want to support this Alex pretty guy. They want

128
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 1: to ice out no matter where you are, they want

129
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: ice out of America. These are the same people that

130
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: when Megan Boss was killed and stuffed into a blue

131
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: container a La Drew Peterson. Nobody cared about that, Nobody

132
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: took a day off work for that, Nobody says her name.

133
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: But when these things happen, it fits a narrative, and

134
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 1: the narrative being created by who and why. I don't

135
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: understand what the outcome is going to be. I don't

136
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: know what they want the outcome to be. Do we

137
00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 1: just live in a country with no borders anymore, no laws,

138
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 1: no rules. Where does that get us? It's problem reaction solution.

139
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: It's great the problem we react.

140
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 4: We had a solution for you, and it usually involves

141
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 4: more government.

142
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: You have every right to protest. You don't have a

143
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 1: right to come up and blow a whistle in somebody's ear.

144
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 1: You don't have a right to impede law enforcement. That's

145
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 1: going to get you in trouble. But we don't care anymore.

146
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: Right we make heroes out of people that ought not

147
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 1: to be made heroes.

148
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 3: John is here.

149
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: John wants to say hi this morning, five ninet one

150
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: eighty nine hundred, y'all welcome. Give us a call this morning.

151
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 5: Go ahead, John, Hey, good morning guys. What is self

152
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 5: frightening out there is people will just believe that first

153
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 5: huge wave of lies the media throws out there without

154
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 5: any critical thinking, without any discerning or waiting for the

155
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 5: facts to come out, and they just stick with that

156
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 5: first news report that they get, and that's what they

157
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 5: believe it is. I mean, Don Wade on WLS years

158
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 5: ago said to like, it's so frightening how ignorant people

159
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 5: really are out there.

160
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, because change your opinion, be able to pivot, right,

161
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: you don't be able to pivot. And once you get

162
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 1: past the shock or the h or whatever the headline is,

163
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 1: do a little research on your own. Don't get caught

164
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 1: up in the social media sewer of it all. Use

165
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: some critical thinking. As you said, John, I appreciate that.

166
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: But he goes to show you that Alex pretty you know,

167
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: if you spend his story in a good light, he's

168
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: a great guy, John Wayne Gacy, you know, except for

169
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:37,439
Speaker 1: those thirty three murders. Great guy, great guy, right, Luisgiu Manngioni,

170
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: you're talking about him in your news in the top

171
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: of the hour. We've made a hero out of a

172
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 1: guy that killed somebody because he didn't agree with his

173
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,439
Speaker 1: policies when he came to health insurance. I don't agree

174
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 1: with big, big, big Pharma, the industrial medical complex. Either

175
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 1: doesn't mean you go around killing somebody and then be

176
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: made a hero of the hell is going on with

177
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: our society now. This caffee shop that's closed in Avondale,

178
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: I'm not going to talk about them, because I can

179
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 1: tell you this. There's a coffee shop that's moved at

180
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 1: Geneva called gun Barrel Coffee, and they're open this morning

181
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 1: serving veterans and the like. If you have the old

182
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 1: cable box still hooked up and you're not on antenna

183
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,040

Speaker 1: I'm now a paid contributor to Newsmax.

194
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,359
Speaker 4: hits we had scheduled all were preempted.

195
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 3: Oh my guys, this night.

196
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 1: I get that we have breaking news, but this isn't

00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: necessarily working out for me. I want to go have

198

00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 6: Hey.

202
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 7: All of these they call them protesters.

203
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 8: They are paid by these organizations like x blue and

204
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 8: crowds on Demand.

205
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,319
Speaker 5: One of the people funding that's going to get prosecuted.

206
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, good luck with that. Yeah, yeah, you know what

207
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 1: I had. I had some of that to show up

208
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,839
Speaker 1: in my feed last night. I appreciate you listening. Mike

209
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 1: three one two five nine, one eighty nine hundred, if

210
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 1: you want to chime in this morning.

211
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 3: There is a something that's been popping up.

212
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 1: I've been looking at a lot of these Minneapolis videos

213
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 1: and such on social media. So obviously the algorithm lends

214
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: itself now to me seeing all this crap that I

215
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 1: don't want to see. And I made the mistake. I

216
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: made the mistake of clicking on one and it was

217
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: put up there by town Square Media. Now town Square

218
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: Media is a smaller media company, but they're big in

219
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 1: smaller markets. So there's this radio station out of Duluth,

220
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: Mix Mix one OH and Mix one await. I played

221
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 1: the new Bruce Springsteen's Streets in Minnea Aflage.

222
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 9: Through the winter, sass and cool.

223
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 1: I'm old anyway, it's the new Bruce Springsteen slack socks.

224
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 3: No it doesn't.

225
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 1: People are saying this is the next I mean, this

226
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: is the next big this, this.

227
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,439
Speaker 4: Is he's going crazy like when Steve Hall went crazy

228
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 4: back in the day.

229
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 1: This is Bruce Springsteen speaking on behalf of America. So

230
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 1: I make a comment of of of this a mixed

231
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: one aweight, and I said, all they're trying to do

232
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: is post this to get clicks and hits, because that's

233
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,679
Speaker 1: what town Square Media does, even worse than Social Stephanie.

234
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 3: So some people click back.

235
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 1: They're clapping back at me, people from California, because it's

236
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: now got this lib feel to it, right, And somebody

237
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: called me an mf orr and I'm just a scorned

238
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 1: I'm a scorned radio guy that you know, can't make

239
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: a living in radio in my career as crap, and

240
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,719
Speaker 1: I and I felt like responding and saying you might

241
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 1: want to look me up when I let it go,

242
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: because it's like why do I want to get involved

243
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 1: with that?

244
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 10: Mom stopped commenting, Yeah, yeah.

245
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 3: My mom, my mom.

246
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 1: But we had some terrible news in the in the

247
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 1: house yesterday, Nick, you know she fell last week. Mom's

248
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 1: doing okay. He's a woman's tough. She's tough, German tough,

249
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 1: you know. As a matter of fact, I wonder if

250
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 1: I could have her deported.

251
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 10: Back to Bavaria.

252
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 1: That might be a way to get Christy Nomean to

253
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: the house. Hi, Christy, Oh you want to take my mom?

254
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 1: Can I go for ride on the horse?

255
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 11: First?

256
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 1: So my cousin Lee, who really worked and ran on

257
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: a Legion post one to eighty seven. And Elmhirst, who

258
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 1: had just gone on hon her flight this year. He

259
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,079
Speaker 1: was one of our military Monday guests, was coming home

260
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: from the Legion and pulled his car over and passed away.

261
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: So I had to share that news with my mom.

262
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: So then I had to call my family members and whatnot.

263
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 1: And sure he had to call my cousin Joey. Well,

264
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 1: joe he's the guy cousin Joey Phasio. Oh, I'm sorry,

265
00:12:54,920 --> 00:13:01,319
Speaker 1: it's Fazzio now of the Port Washington fazios So. And

266
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 1: Joey's a great guy. But Joey was a mathematical genius

267
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 1: and he opened several banks across Wisconsin. He's on a

268
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 1: banking board here in Chicago. This guy is successful. And

269
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,439
Speaker 1: no matter what I do, you know your cousin on

270
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: twelve banks, Joey Banker. So I get to see Joey

271
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 1: the banker and some of the family members this Sunday.

272
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: But but you know this, this whole paid protester thing, Nick,

273
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 1: there's no doubt that people are paid to protest because

274
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 1: because a lot of we would call this weather protest repellent. Right,

275
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: But none of that, none of that is going on

276
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: doesn't FaZe him. So here's what we got to going

277
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: on here at the WLSAM A ninety today.

278
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 3: It's our road to Rosemont. Yeah, I think every road

279
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:50,959
Speaker 3: leads to Rosemont. We're there a lot.

280
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:52,600

Speaker 1: be working for a radio station like B ninety six,

296
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:39,040

Speaker 4: He owns a cigarette boat and raised cards.

326
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 3: That's right. So what if it's his stamp?

327
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 10: What kind of stamp? Was it? Like the duck stamp,

328

Speaker 1: So nobody, nobody seems they say that sixty percent of

359
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,239
Speaker 1: Americans don't care about the Winter Olympics. I love like

360
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 1: watching Lindsey Vaughan have this remarkable comeback in her career.

361
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,800

00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 1: Only seven percent of Americans say that they'll watch another

371
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: seventeen percent say they'll tune in what they can. But

372
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,679
Speaker 1: sixty percent of people say they don't care about the

373
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 1: US Winter Olympics. And this is one of those things

374
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: that Social Stephanie wants us to talk about.

Speaker 1: pretend like it didn't happen yet. But it did twelve

387
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,840

Speaker 1: you are in the crosshairs and talk about the impact

468
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 1: that these storms in this weather's had. I'm the American farmer,

469
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: not only you know, your producers, your hog producers, especially

470
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:16,880
Speaker 1: cattle farmers. They've got to round up the cattle, make

471
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 1: sure they're fed. That gets hard when there's heavy snow.

472
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 1: But you down there on the Carolina this year, you're

473
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:23,440
Speaker 1: ready to get hit by an o'reaster again.

474
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, we're gonna get Clomber. They're talking about snow amounts

475
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 6: right here around the Raleigh of about six inches over

476
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 6: along the outer banks or many folks have vacation over

477
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,399
Speaker 6: the years, they're going to have, they say, better than

478
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 6: a foot of snow. Now, you've got to remember there

479
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 6: are five snowplows in North Carolina and they're all in

480
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 6: the mountains. Yeah, they've been they've been out there spreading

481
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,679
Speaker 6: brine for days. You know, after the ice storm last weekend.

482
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 6: They brought eighteen thousand utility workers into North Carolina last weekend.

483
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 6: Eighteen thousand with a thousand trucks. That's the kind of

484
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,919
Speaker 6: a hurricane prep. Half of them headed back home and

485
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:58,159
Speaker 6: he said, wait a minute, we're going to need you

486
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,640
Speaker 6: back here. We got a snowstorm coming in be it'll

487
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 6: be interesting to watch. And powerful winds too, around fifty

488
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 6: sixty an hour.

489
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 1: And and Middle Tennessee is still hurting. I mean, Nashville

490
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 1: is still hurting from all of that ice they had.

491
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely, still many people without power there. And yeah,

492
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 6: I've got I got a big generator. You want to

493
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 6: come see my gener you know, you.

494
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 1: Know it's funny, you know, I have a generak at

495
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,960
Speaker 1: my place. Up in northern Wisconsin, and uh, you do.

496
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,679
Speaker 1: And I had to on Sunday. It was thirty two

497
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: below zero and Sundays when this thing exercises right, it

498
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 1: starts and it runs. And that thing was just out

499
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 1: there crank and it did not start really, So I'm

500
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,639
Speaker 1: sure there's an overcrank warning on the on the panel

501
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 1: and stuff like that.

502
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 4: But that's why you get your tractor out and you

503
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,439
Speaker 4: hook the PTO up to a PTO driven generator.

504
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: My dad doesn't do you act like you're some you know,

505
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 1: you know, backwards, good old boy.

506
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 3: And do you got painted nails?

507
00:23:53,200 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 12: Shut up with Yeah, but he's got those nails around

508
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 12: the pat I will tell you that's.

509
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: Something like I said, his nails are dirty. But that

510
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:17,200
Speaker 1: ain't from Greece's from smoking. You know, you don't want

511
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 1: to show up. You don't want to show up in

512
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 1: this studio. It's just it's you know, day like today.

513
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:22,159
Speaker 13: You know.

514
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 3: I knew.

515
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 1: I knew when I woke up at two in the

516
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 1: morning and I felt I was like, boy, this is

517
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:27,359
Speaker 1: going to be a hell of a show here. I

518
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: apologize to the listeners for the product we're giving you.

519
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,400
Speaker 6: I thought it was okay you know, you're a little

520
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:35,440
Speaker 6: too hard on yourself there.

521
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 1: Hey, well that's Nick's Nick's been a little hard on

522
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,879
Speaker 1: me lately too with his new uh new sponsors.

523
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 3: Take it, don't take it easy.

524
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: That's a great client of ours, you know.

525
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 6: Have you guys have a top notch producer too. Kid

526
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 6: points out that there is Valentine They coming up. You

527
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 6: know what, that's amateur day. Yeah, sixteen days the way.

528
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,959
Speaker 6: That's amateurs, right right, those of us who have been

529
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 6: up there in the Major League for a few years

530
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 6: as well. Every day Valentine's Day.

531
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I get this great email yesterday from

532
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 1: our boss. And you know, Steph, she's a lovely, lovely lady,

533
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:18,679
Speaker 1: and she does a lot of great things for the station,

534
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: and and but she's like, we should do a wedding.

535
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I talked about this last year. It's

536
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: called their raced Evens No budget wedding. And she sends

537
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,439
Speaker 1: this to me like she just figured this out. And

538
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 1: I thought, well, it might be a little bit too

539
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,159
Speaker 1: late to create that narrative. But if somebody wants to

540
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 1: get married in our conference studio, IM will officiate, He'll

541
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 1: be the efficiant and and we have flowers, and we

542
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,199
Speaker 1: have a we have a hotel, We have all that

543
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 1: kind of stuff for you. Nick I know has some

544
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 1: stuff he can give you and communion wine. Yeah, yeah,

545
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 1: So I guess we got to chum the waters if

546
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 1: we want that to happen, because I love doing that

547
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: kind of stuff, right, and that would be neat.

548
00:25:58,160 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 6: That would be a great way to celebrate.

549
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 1: Valuin, tell me something good that the American farmer, because

550
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:05,880
Speaker 1: everything that the farm happens on the farm trickles down

551
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 1: to us, right the producer cost, fuel costs, things like that.

552
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 1: We know that fuel prices are down, albeit maybe ticking

553
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 1: up a little bit this morning with some of the

554
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: stuff that's going on in the region with Iran and

555
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,360
Speaker 1: things like that. But can you kind of turn over

556
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,439
Speaker 1: the tea leaves there at the Maxim O'Ryan ranch and

557
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: tell me that this might be a better year for

558
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,400
Speaker 1: the American farmer and then leading to a better year

559
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 1: for the rest of us.

560
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 6: With the economy, we're always hoping we get round the

561
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,440
Speaker 6: corner at the egg economy. This is the going into

562
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 6: the fourth straight year of a tough agg economy. But

563
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 6: I'm sitting here looking at the drought monitor map, the

564
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 6: one that came out yesterday, and Illinois is well. Arkansas

565
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 6: is a little worse than Illinois. Southern Missouri is in

566
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:49,399
Speaker 6: tough shape. Be it out around Champagne. That's the worst,

567
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 6: almost the worst drought you can have at about a

568
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 6: thirty mile radius of Champagne. Only if you look at

569
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,239
Speaker 6: the state of Illinois, only the Chicago area and then

570
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 6: southeast Wisconsin and northwestern THEATA are free of dry conditions

571
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 6: right now according to the drought monitors. So that may

572
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,679
Speaker 6: mean somewhat of a possibility of a spring rally. Now,

573
00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 6: it all depends, of course, on the rains that we

574
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,880
Speaker 6: get in the spring, and you know, you don't need

575
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,440
Speaker 6: a lot, you just get good regular moisture. We can

576
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 6: recharge that soil moisture the down of the depths there

577
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 6: to rely on in the summertime if we get into drought,

578
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 6: so we could still have good crops. But I think

579
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,959
Speaker 6: if we continue to have widespread droughts showing up on

580
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,479
Speaker 6: the map, we'll have some folks saying, yeah, we need

581
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 6: to get a little nervous about the green.

582
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 1: Market, you know, and talk about the snowcover, because the

583
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: snowcover does help, right, I mean, although you do need,

584
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:38,719
Speaker 1: you do need a lot more snow to make up

585
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:42,640
Speaker 1: for actual rain. But you know, whether people still realize

586
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 1: this or not, this region around here is still pretty dry.

587
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 6: Well, you're exactly right, you know, and in the mountains

588
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:50,880
Speaker 6: of the West, they rely on that moisture.

589
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 3: How are you picking up?

590
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 6: You know, I filled in for Top Well wait a minute,

591
00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 6: I substituted for Tom back.

592
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 3: In the day. Yeah, there, listen. I don't want to.

593
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: I don't want Dean Richards and Tom Skilling's boyfriend's coming

594
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 1: after me because you're making fun of these guys.

595
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 6: Like guys say, the snowpack of the mountains can really

596
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 6: make a difference out there. And if we continue to

597
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,680
Speaker 6: get good winter time precipitation, which has been the case,

598
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 6: you know, right around Lake Michigan, and that has helped

599
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 6: the drought right around the lake. But you get a

600
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 6: little farther away and it's still very drought across the

601
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:27,159
Speaker 6: driver areas of north central Todiganda, much of Illinois, and

602
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 6: we we need some winter time moisture. You have to

603
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 6: recharge that some soil.

604
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: This is our business report with Max Armstrong. He is

605
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:34,200
Speaker 1: a cornstar.

606
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 3: Max.

607
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:36,920
Speaker 1: Before I let you go serious, news here on WLSA

608
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 1: made ninety in Woodstock, Pete is calling on Woodstock to

609
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 1: replace Woodstock Willie with a AI inspired groundhog a pig.

610
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 3: What are your thoughts on that?

611
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 6: Forme force him to watch the movie for three hours?

612
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 3: Oh god, like that.

613
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 6: It's just it's crazy. You know, we get goofy every year.

614
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 6: Somebody comes out of the word work on this. You

615
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 6: know it's a meteorologist that complain most about the weed juck. Yeah,

616
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 6: I never.

617
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 1: It actually pisses Brent Miller off. I'm like, it's just

618
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 1: a movie. It's okay, just a crowd off. It's not science,

619
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 1: no kidding.

620
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 6: Really yeah wait, wait for the old Farmer's Almanac in front.

621
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 6: It not a getting landered up. That thing's only right

622
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 6: about half the time.

623
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: We will visit you soon down there in North Carolina.

624
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:26,479
Speaker 1: Nick wants to go for a ride on the tractor.

625
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 1: Sit on your lap and go over a bunch of bumps.

626
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 6: That's the way our road is, all right, buddy, you

627
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 6: guys take care.

628
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:36,960
Speaker 1: This has been something we are sending right over to

629
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 1: the Broadcast Hall of Fame sixty two years on WLSA

630
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: May ninety's the Midday Host with oriyon legend from WLS

631
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: Max Armstrong here on the Big eighty nine. All right,

632
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 1: coming up next. It's that time of year where were

633
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 1: it's getting ready for the big game. Can we say

634
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 1: we can't call it what it is, right because we

635
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 1: don't own the rights that although I think Westwood one

636
00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 1: does and we're Westwood Wane affiliate.

637
00:29:59,360 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 3: Right.

638
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: But there's a new beer out and it's made out

639
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 1: of beer poop.

640
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 4: So if you want to get like that special coffee

641
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 4: that passes through the monkey's.

642
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 1: Colon, you want to get crap faced boy, this is right,

643
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 1: this is yes, this is what you're gonna drink. Let's

644
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 1: talk about that next. As our hard hitting Friday show

645
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: continues here and we welcome you into it. We're gonna

646
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 1: be out at the Boat Show from eleven to one

647
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: Nickelby there. I will be there when you do come

648
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: out to the boat Show. We have two tickets to

649
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 1: see Chicago and Sticks All State Arena August first, playing

650
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: all the hits.

651
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 4: Maybe someone wants to come out and bring a little

652
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 4: Tito's and don't orange juice.

653
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 1: That's another thing that happened last night during the dust up.

654
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 1: What she says, there's something in Tito's and we have

655
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:48,959
Speaker 1: to find a new vodka.

656
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 10: Oh, come on, no, Like the thing in Tito's is

657
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 10: called alcohol, but.

658
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 1: No, there's something, there's something in there that that's supposedly

659
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: gonna kill me. And I'm like, that's the idea I

660
00:30:58,880 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 1: wanted to kill me.

661
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:05,600
Speaker 4: Isn't the Costco Vaka made by Tito's Kirkland, I think

662
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 4: is the brand?

663
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 10: Yeah, allegedly they're distilled in the same location.

664
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 1: And I mean we do have, you know, some Gray

665
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: Goose and things like that as well.

666
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 3: But yeah, there was a dust up at the house.

667
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 1: Let I'm not even sure I still have a domestic

668
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 1: partner anymore. And if I do, his name might be

669
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 1: Nick Gael and I probably you know what to this point,

670
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 1: why not?

671
00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 3: What the hell? We just do it for the insurance,

672
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 3: either that or just let's just do some experimenting. What

673
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 3: do you think? What do you think they're touched.

674
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 4: Me?

675
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 3: Ay? Now? Kid? Yeah, day, big daddy.

676
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 1: New sapol there's a new Ciana pol out that's talking

677
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 1: about the economy and what Republicans and Democrats think going

678
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 1: in to the midterms. And there's a couple of things

679
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 1: that are problematic here. One the administration, which would be

680
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 1: the Trump administration, gets really good marks when it comes

681
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 1: to crime, when it comes to border security and border issues. Now,

682
00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 1: there are a certain amount of Americans that think that

683
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 1: the border issue and what Ice is doing in Minneapolis

684
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: and other places has gone too far. We always talk

685
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 1: about what the optics of this looks like. Right, But

686
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 1: the good news is here in America we have a

687
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 1: thirty second memory. But here's what the Democrats are doing

688
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 1: well at affordability. They get high marks on affordability and

689
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 1: the economy for doing what what have they done well?

690
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 1: They are responsible for the economy of what we're in.

691
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 1: And anybody that will argue that point is wrong. They're

692
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: just yelling her race. They're all started back with Joe Biden. Sorry,

693
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 1: it's all on Joe Biden. Yeah, things have started to

694
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 1: get better. You'll just earn't five dollars a dozen anymore.

695
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 1: You know why, Donald J. Trump, you almost sounded like

696
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 1: Maya Rudolph when she imitates Kamala Jeebiden Jeebiden. But you know,

697
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 1: the ridiculousness to the affordability scam is they've done a

698
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 1: good job with it. You got to give them, right,

699
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 1: The Democrat party, and even that crazy really progressive left

700
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 1: wing nut faction of that party has done a good

701
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 1: job saying, hey man, this guy said he was going

702
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 1: to bring prices down, but it's not happening. But all

703
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 1: you have to do, And again, Nick, you have to

704
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 1: understand who you're dealing with. Right You know that the

705
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 1: price of groceries has come down. They're still high, but

706
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 1: they got to come down. You know the price of

707
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 1: fuel is coming down as well, so price of diesel

708
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 1: not so much. But then you're dealing with this winter

709
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 1: blend that's not supposed to gel, but it's gelling and

710
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 1: my truck just saying. But so I just wonder, and

711
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 1: this is a question for you at the various stute

712
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: WLSAM A ninety listener is what do the Republicans have

713
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 1: to do? What does the GOP have to do to

714
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:50,719
Speaker 1: get their messaging out by the time the midterms roll around,

715
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 1: Because I don't think we lose the Senate, I don't.

716
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 3: The other side don't know. I'm not so sure about

717
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 3: House could be.

718
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 1: And here for those that are listening right now and

719
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 1: they're saying, well, I don't care, I like the way

720
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 1: things are going. You have to remember that if we

721
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 1: do not keep the Senate in the house, everything you

722
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,760
Speaker 1: voted for two years ago is for not because now

723
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: you've got another two years of just disarray. You know,

724
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 1: you've got guys like Hakeem Jefferies in charge, and all

725
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 1: they're doing is causing turbulence and turmoil. So you know,

726
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 1: I know this might not be a fashionable statement, and

727
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: I know that we are law and order people, but

728
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:34,839
Speaker 1: I think what Trump needs to do and Christy Noman

729
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: needs to do, I understand they're doing their job.

730
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 3: Well back a little bit. You've done what you said

731
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 3: you would do.

732
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 4: Well. I think that's happening right with getting Gregory Bavino

733
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 4: out of Minneapolis and now putting Tom Homan in there,

734
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 4: I think that that shows a major shift in kind

735
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:56,400
Speaker 4: of the policy towards ICE agents and Border patrol agents

736
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 4: in their mission there.

737
00:34:57,920 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't.

738
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 1: Again, I can't wrap myself around the ideology of people

739
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,720
Speaker 1: that want lawlessness or will support people that do stupid things,

740
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 1: because there are stupid people in the world, right, you know,

741
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 1: and it's been that way forever, right, I mean I

742
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 1: understand that, Yeah, But I mean.

743
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 4: If you're okay, if you're cool with you know, illegal criminals,

744
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 4: sex offenders, rapists, whatever running around in your town. Okay, bro,

745
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 4: But you know, I think the majority of people say no.

746
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 4: Common sense is you don't let that happen. Kick him out.

747
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:30,960
Speaker 3: You know.

748
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 1: The thing is is, if this is this the platform

749
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 1: people want to stand on. If if you want to

750
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 1: support narco terrorists Maduro, if you want to support Senator

751
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,840
Speaker 1: Van Hollinsworth, you know, going down and talking to a

752
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:49,880
Speaker 1: trendy at Agua gang members and having margaritas with guys

753
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: that are known members of a trendy at Agua.

754
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 3: I don't quite get that.

755
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:55,960
Speaker 1: But we have a kid that shows up at the

756
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 1: State of the Union or whatever that I know it

757
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 1: wasn't the State of the Union per se. When Trump

758
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,719
Speaker 1: talked to the to the United States for the first

759
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:06,840
Speaker 1: time and that DJ Daniel kids stood up and nobody

760
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:08,920
Speaker 1: on the left stood up for a kid who was

761
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 1: battling cancer, that chills me everything I need to know

762
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 1: about you have some decency. But again I also think Nick,

763
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 1: that this isn't your mom and dad's Democrat Chicago ran

764
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 1: pretty good as a Democrat town up until really Lori

765
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:27,520
Speaker 1: Lightfoot and now Brandon Johnson.

766
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 3: Whether you liked Ram Emmanuel or not.

767
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 1: At least he was common sense, right, you know, and

768
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:36,720
Speaker 1: that's a problem for Ram Emmanuel now, who is kicking around.

769
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 1: Maybe a bid for president. I tell you what, I

770
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 1: think that would be a for the for the Democrat side.

771
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 1: That's not a bad choice when you put him up

772
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: against guys like JB.

773
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 3: Pritzkergor Gavin Newsom.

774
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 4: Yes, but enter the extreme left, loony tunes, AOC's of

775
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 4: the like, and they're like Nora Emmanuel, he's a.

776
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:59,319

855
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:50,319
Speaker 1: terrible coffee we have here it's terrible. You drink this

856
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:56,800
Speaker 1: coffee and I think you're staged at one. But I'm

857
00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:58,479
Speaker 1: not a guy that goes out. If I do stop

858
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:00,800
Speaker 1: at a coffee place, it's gone. I go see my

859
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 1: friend Sally. He's in Geneva Gun Barrel Coffee. I know

860
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:07,000
Speaker 1: they're open today. They're not shutting down for a general walkout,

861
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 1: so we can protest. ICE doing their job in cities

862
00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:13,840
Speaker 1: all over the United States of America, now, make no mistake,

863
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 1: and a big drug bust yesterday on the South side

864
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:20,799
Speaker 1: of Chicago, huge drug bust here in town, and it

865
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:23,080
Speaker 1: didn't make a lot of news. We'll talk about that

866
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 1: coming up. But the ea FBI ICE is doing their

867
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:30,880
Speaker 1: job in all these cities, but for some reason, only

868
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 1: seems to be a dust up in Minneapolis.

869
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 3: Now, why would that be liberal town.

870
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:40,359
Speaker 1: Well, I think that there's this thing called Somali fraud

871
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 1: that's going on, and you know, there's some.

872
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:44,640
Speaker 3: People that are pushing back on me.

873
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:46,320
Speaker 1: I said, you know what, I would like to see

874
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 1: this thing tamp down a little bit because I want

875
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:53,719
Speaker 1: to get back to the fraud issue and this is

876
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,839
Speaker 1: just a big smoke screen. Keith Ellison and Jacob Fry

877
00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:00,399
Speaker 1: and Tim Walls. They've got a problem on their hand,

878
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:03,840
Speaker 1: and we're being diverted from that problem because nobody's talking

879
00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:08,000
Speaker 1: about the billions and billions of dollars in fraud that's

880
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:11,360
Speaker 1: being funneled through the Somali community back to Somalia and

881
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:15,080
Speaker 1: maybe even into the hands of terrorists. Now, I want

882
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:17,319
Speaker 1: you to think about that for a second. So once

883
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:19,879
Speaker 1: we can tamp down all these paid agitators funded by

884
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:25,040
Speaker 1: Alex Soros and Soros Radio and whoever else, I think

885
00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 1: you get to the back to the root of the

886
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 1: problem because with all this going on now, is this

887
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:34,200
Speaker 1: now going to be a ployed just to have the

888
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,319
Speaker 1: Amy Kolbachars of the world and the Keith Ellison's of

889
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:38,959
Speaker 1: the world and the other idiots that I just talked

890
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 1: about to say, no, there's no fraud here. This is

891
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:45,719
Speaker 1: just Donald Trump's problem with Tim Walls in Minnesota, and

892
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:48,319
Speaker 1: when we know it's not. And I want these guys

893
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:50,280
Speaker 1: to be nailed for this because this is our money.

894
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:51,960
Speaker 4: Well, and you know here's the thing too, and I

895
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:53,600
Speaker 4: was telling you this a couple of days ago. They've

896
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,680
Speaker 4: got some It was a caller into Chris Plant talking

897
00:42:56,719 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 4: about Sioux City, Nebraska City, Iowa, right, Nebraska, where they

898
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,440
Speaker 4: have all of a sudden over the last four or

899
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 4: five years. It's a large Smali population there, and the

900
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,440
Speaker 4: callers like I'm telling you, these guys are here illegally

901
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:17,160
Speaker 4: or false pretext whatever. You send ice into a more

902
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:19,759
Speaker 4: rural setting like that, you would not have any of

903
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:23,920
Speaker 4: these problems until sorrow sends in the hired agitator.

904
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 3: Why is it that?

905
00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 1: What does the Somali community have in common with Sioux City, Nebraska?

906
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:32,799
Speaker 3: What are they going for the machine shed? You know?

907
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:34,879
Speaker 1: Hey, you know they're going out there to hang out

908
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:37,040
Speaker 1: at the at the you know, the farm and fleet

909
00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:38,840
Speaker 1: now or the tractor supply store.

910
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:40,320
Speaker 3: You know, you're also.

911
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:42,840
Speaker 1: Talking about something. I recall you asking me about birthdays

912
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,839
Speaker 1: in this community, because everybody was putting their birthday down

913
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:49,080
Speaker 1: as January first, right right now. If you do a

914
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 1: little research into that, there's a lot of people that

915
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:54,839
Speaker 1: have come from Somalia. They don't keep birth records quite

916
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,719
Speaker 1: as clear as we do here. So when they come

917
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:01,840
Speaker 1: here and they assume our identities Steele are social Security numbers,

918
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:04,719
Speaker 1: they put down January first as their birthday. So I

919
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:07,279
Speaker 1: don't know if that's a big smoking gun there. But

920
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 1: there's just not a lot that follows them over from

921
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:14,279
Speaker 1: that god forsaken land of what they once came. Now

922
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 1: closer to home, we're talking about this a shutdown. I

923
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,160
Speaker 1: was talking to social staff, she's getting her kids ready

924
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 1: for school, and I said, whoa, Sometimes social staff isn't

925
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:25,719
Speaker 1: on our side. I don't think that's a big surprise, right.

926
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:29,120
Speaker 1: She lives in Chicago, she's Roscoe Village, young lady, white,

927
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,600
Speaker 1: she's a woman, you know, typical suburban mom.

928
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 3: But I said, you're not supposed.

929
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:36,000
Speaker 1: To take the kids to school today, and she's like,

930
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:38,640
Speaker 1: I have to, they're school today. I'm like, no, schools

931
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 1: are supposed to be shut down. This is the walkout

932
00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:44,440
Speaker 1: today where you close your businesses. You don't open anything

933
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 1: up today because the best way for you to defund

934
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,480
Speaker 1: ice is not making any money for your business. Could

935
00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,440
Speaker 1: that be the stupidest thing you've ever heard? I mean,

936
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:56,040
Speaker 1: but that's the mindset of these people. Several people detained

937
00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 1: in Chicago's west Loop at.

938
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 3: A Target store. Yeah. I don't get that, man either.

939
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:06,799
Speaker 4: Let's go because they're protesting the Target stores, right because

940
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 4: Target hasn't come out and said anything.

941
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,800
Speaker 3: I think Target came out when they had their Tucket swimwear.

942
00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:15,400
Speaker 4: So it should be pretty clear where Target stands, right, Yeah,

943
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:19,439
Speaker 4: but they're processing Target anyways because they haven't specifically said

944
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:21,080
Speaker 4: they want ice Well to get out.

945
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:21,520
Speaker 3: Listen.

946
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 1: I don't shop Target. I will tell you this the seldom,

947
00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 1: very few times I do go there. Shopping carts are fabulous.

948
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 1: You don't ever get a bad shopping car to targetet.

949
00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:31,879
Speaker 10: They got a cup holder for your beer.

950
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,919
Speaker 3: You go, No, that's for the Starbucks that's in there.

951
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:36,520
Speaker 10: Oh, it's not for the beer that I'm brought.

952
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:37,200
Speaker 3: No.

953
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:41,880
Speaker 1: No, Oh, So they got a Starbucks. Then you're in Target.

954
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 1: They got this Tucket swim where they're very friendly to

955
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 1: LGBTQ and they should have good for them. If that's

956
00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:49,400
Speaker 1: what they want to do, fine, I'll have a problem

957
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,759
Speaker 1: with that. Doesn't mean I like to shop there, but

958
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:54,040
Speaker 1: they do have wonderful shopping cars. But people who want

959
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:55,799
Speaker 1: to shop there ought to be allowed to go there

960
00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:59,280
Speaker 1: if they want. So they had to detain people yesterday

961
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:00,880
Speaker 1: at the start of a pro test that this is

962
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,920
Speaker 1: the west Loop Target because they want, as Nick alluded to,

963
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,439
Speaker 1: they want Target to come out and carry a sign

964
00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:09,719
Speaker 1: that says what side they're on?

965
00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:10,920
Speaker 3: I'm just so stupid.

966
00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:17,759
Speaker 4: Why Okay, Ray Stevens owns a sheet metal company. You're

967
00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,480
Speaker 4: a tin knocker and you know you're doing some heating

968
00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:22,400
Speaker 4: ducks and somebody comes up to you and says, what

969
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:23,160
Speaker 4: side are you on?

970
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:25,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's none of your damn business.

971
00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 1: That's when I that's when I take my big snips

972
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,480
Speaker 1: and I throw them right at your head.

973
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:32,439
Speaker 3: Better get out of here.

974
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 4: I don't I don't understand what value comes from. You know,

975
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 4: these people standing out in the cold in front of

976
00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 4: the Target store demanding that Target come out with some

977
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:44,400
Speaker 4: kind of a statement that they're you know, anti ice.

978
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:46,720
Speaker 4: I mean, where the hell's Target based anyways?

Speaker 1: Let's do those at seven point fifty tomorrow on the Drive,

1015
00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:10,360
Speaker 1: Chicago Drive Chicago eight o'clock every morning, with every Saturday

1016
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:13,680
Speaker 1: morning with myself, Jim o'brill and Mark Bielick. Tomorrow, Nick,

1017
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:19,880
Speaker 1: we are talking about Canada. Canada is reducing tariffs on

1018
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:26,360
Speaker 1: Chinese evs. Why is the question we will ask is

1019
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,160
Speaker 1: why are they doing that? Because whatever happens and when

1020
00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:34,360
Speaker 1: China introduces its evs, it's decimated the European EV market

1021
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 1: and it's been no good because China comes in and

1022
00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:40,720
Speaker 1: they bring a product that's a lot cheaper. It doesn't

1023
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:44,040
Speaker 1: have the quality of an American built EV or a

1024
00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:45,839
Speaker 1: European built EV, but it's cheap.

1025
00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:47,080
Speaker 3: It's got a cheap price point.

1026
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:52,560
Speaker 1: So Canada's Carney is kind of a way to thumb

1027
00:48:52,560 --> 00:48:55,400
Speaker 1: his nose at the President. Donald Trump said, you know

1028
00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:58,399
Speaker 1: what if you're going to call off tariffs, and there's

1029
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,560
Speaker 1: not a lot of manufacturing that goes on in Canada

1030
00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:02,640
Speaker 1: and one.

1031
00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:04,839
Speaker 3: Of their major major.

1032
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:12,960
Speaker 1: Producing, uh factories and producing is car manufacturing. And I

1033
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,880
Speaker 1: think with Trump and his bring everything back to the

1034
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:19,279
Speaker 1: United States and you know, no no, uh, you know,

1035
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 1: big tax breaks if your car was made in America.

1036
00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:25,560
Speaker 1: But this, this will be this is going to be

1037
00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:27,880
Speaker 1: bad for Canada. And I think this Mark Carneigh, this

1038
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:31,759
Speaker 1: Carney guy. The premiere is is just this is not

1039
00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:33,080
Speaker 1: a good decision for Canada.

1040
00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:33,680
Speaker 3: Uh.

1041
00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:40,640
Speaker 1: Speaking more about the the Trump administration and Canada, I

1042
00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:45,520
Speaker 1: guess there was some separatists from Alberta that have met

1043
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:51,080
Speaker 1: with the Trump administration now not now, not Trump, but

1044
00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:55,600
Speaker 1: the Trump administration. So again, Prime Minister, and this listen,

1045
00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:57,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if you had reprivy to any of

1046
00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:00,520
Speaker 1: the things that we talked about last week, when you know,

1047
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:02,560
Speaker 1: everybody was in Davos and they were talking about the

1048
00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:06,720
Speaker 1: economy and Carney was waving his finger at the Trump

1049
00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:09,160
Speaker 1: and Trump didn't take too kindly to that, and the

1050
00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:12,000
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom was there and they were all talking about

1051
00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:13,719
Speaker 1: how bad the economy is. But I got to tell you,

1052
00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:16,840
Speaker 1: we walked out of there as supporters of Donald Trump

1053
00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 1: and as America I think, looking pretty darn good. But

1054
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:23,240
Speaker 1: he is now saying that the US needs to respect

1055
00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:29,440
Speaker 1: Canadian sovereignty after reports have emerged that Alberta separatists it

1056
00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:34,280
Speaker 1: talked to the Trump administration about the province possibly leaving Canada.

1057
00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:37,279
Speaker 3: Becoming part of Montana or something that'd be great. You

1058
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:39,040
Speaker 3: ever been you ever been to Alberta? No?

1059
00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:41,800
Speaker 4: Fabulous no, But if it's so, I've been to Montana

1060
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:44,680
Speaker 4: and I have a feeling it's kind of like that,

1061
00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:45,319
Speaker 4: very like that.

1062
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:49,120
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, the Canadian Rockies are spectacle. That's awesome.

1063
00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:53,879
Speaker 1: Sul for Mountain, the Calgary Stampede. Yeah, fifty first state

1064
00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 1: or fiftieth state. We just trade Minnesota gladly Canada. You

1065
00:50:59,120 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 1: get Minnesota.

1066
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:00,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:06,439
Speaker 1: Ten thousand lakes woo Wisconsin, says hold my beer over

Speaker 1: fourteen thousand, eight hundred lakes in the in the Dairyland state.

1069
00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:13,480
Speaker 1: But man, Bruce Springsteen an't if you heard his new

1070
00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:14,880
Speaker 1: song or not. But I just want to play a

1071
00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:18,560
Speaker 1: little bit and I just want to listen. This is

1072
00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:21,279
Speaker 1: I think what happens when when Daddy, when when the

1073
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:25,640
Speaker 1: old timers skit pro tools and in computer writing technology,

1074
00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:28,680
Speaker 1: you know, instead of using using the songwriters that they

1075
00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:32,120
Speaker 1: use when when they wrote to not Born in the USA.

1076
00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:35,000
Speaker 1: Here's Bruce Springsteen and that not Born in the USA.

1077
00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:37,000
Speaker 1: That's a song we're working on here at the Big

1078
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:37,720
Speaker 1: eighty nine.

1079
00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:43,720
Speaker 9: Through the winters, ice and cool down the Glen Heaven,

1080
00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:50,960
Speaker 9: a city of flame, fort, fire and dice. The then

1081
00:51:50,960 --> 00:52:00,239
Speaker 9: occuis Boots King Trump's private army from the DHS Gun's built.

00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:04,120
Speaker 1: To the okay, but the guns belted to their coat.

1083
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:05,879
Speaker 1: That was the Alex pretty guy. He had the gun

1084
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:09,879
Speaker 1: right right. Just to be clear, Bruce Springsteen is now

1085
00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:13,400
Speaker 1: threatening to keep releasing songs until the deportation stop.

1086
00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:19,799
Speaker 11: Okay, we'll stop you really, if you really want to

1087
00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:23,080
Speaker 11: do that, get every liberal radio station in America a

1088
00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:25,200
Speaker 11: couple of that that surround us to play that song.

1089
00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:29,719
Speaker 1: You'll see people crying to have this ended. By the way,

1090
00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:32,759
Speaker 1: that's from the pabalon b oh okay. After putting out

1091
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 1: a new song title Streets of Minneapolis as a show

1092
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:38,680
Speaker 1: of support for antiis protesters, musician Bruce Springsteen issued a

1093
00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:42,760
Speaker 1: statement threatening to keep releasing songs until the deportations stop.

1094
00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:47,320
Speaker 3: Oh that's so good. Wow.

1095
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:52,160
Speaker 1: I can honestly say I don't have one Bruce Springsteen

1096
00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:53,160
Speaker 1: record in my collection.

1097
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,360
Speaker 3: Good you shouldn't.

1098
00:52:56,200 --> 00:53:00,239
Speaker 1: Although I do like the what's the song Thomas the

1099
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:04,359
Speaker 1: record company Rosie just gave me a big advance? That's

1100
00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:07,120
Speaker 1: the song of him making it in the Oh Man.

1101
00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,240
Speaker 10: I don't. I don't know a whole lot about Bruce Springsteen,

1102
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:10,080
Speaker 10: so I couldn't tell.

1103
00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:11,440
Speaker 3: You, and I like that. That makes me love you

1104
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:12,000
Speaker 3: even more.

1105
00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:14,120
Speaker 8: I think the only song I ever listened to with

1106
00:53:14,120 --> 00:53:16,080
Speaker 8: any regularity was dancing in the dark. And that's just

1107
00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:17,960
Speaker 8: because Corney Cox is in the music video.

1108
00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's cute.

1109
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:22,879
Speaker 1: He danced like like he had something wrong with him,

1110
00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:24,359
Speaker 1: like he you know, And I don't want to get

1111
00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:26,239
Speaker 1: myself in trouble with any group, so I'm not gonna

1112
00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:28,640
Speaker 1: say what he danced like. He looked like Nick after

1113
00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:30,919
Speaker 1: a case of bush and.

1114
00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:32,920
Speaker 3: That on the floor. That is no fun.

1115
00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,160
Speaker 1: Ray if they do a successfully target target stores, where's

1116
00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:41,480
Speaker 1: Nick gonna get his uh his swimwear?

1117
00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1118
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:46,480
Speaker 1: Right, my tucket Sue City is in Iowa. Sue's South

1119
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:50,240
Speaker 1: Sue is in Nebraska. I thought they were both suits.

1120
00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:54,480
Speaker 1: Hit it right, Nick? Well, well this is from Michael.

1121
00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:57,120
Speaker 1: He says he's a member of the Winnebago tribe of Nebraska.

1122
00:53:57,280 --> 00:54:00,000
Speaker 1: I would think Michael would know. Michael's one of our

1123
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:06,440
Speaker 1: listening all right, Michael, I do too. I like the chieftain. Yeah,

1124
00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:08,959
Speaker 1: there's one for sale on Marketplace next seventy five hundred

1125
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:11,319
Speaker 1: bucks old school. We could fix that up and buy away.

1126
00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:15,080
Speaker 1: Let's buy it. Yeah, I guess it is technically South SEUs.

1127
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:17,560
Speaker 1: Any why do we Why are you always wrong?

1128
00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 6: Right?

1129
00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:25,120
Speaker 4: They're on the Missouri River because I'm I don't know

1130
00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:29,719
Speaker 4: the geography of things. Well here at WLS, we don't

1131
00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:31,200
Speaker 4: get it right, we just get it on. I mean,

1132
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:34,120
Speaker 4: is it Marseille, Illinois or Marseilles mar Sales?

1133
00:54:34,239 --> 00:54:34,760
Speaker 3: I know.

1134
00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:42,200
Speaker 1: Christy Nome addressing mass calls for her firing. Isn't she

1135
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:46,160
Speaker 1: doing her job? I mean she's doing her job, right,

1136
00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:52,560
Speaker 1: I understand that. Listen, Renee Good and this Alex Pretty

1137
00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:58,840
Speaker 1: the instances surrounding their shootings are not good, right, But

1138
00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:03,120
Speaker 1: you know these officers are taking an ass kicking every

1139
00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:07,719
Speaker 1: day and you make split decision decisions and that of

1140
00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:12,520
Speaker 1: a moment, and it's it's it's hard to see people

1141
00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:16,160
Speaker 1: that show up to protest. And this Alex Pretty guy

1142
00:55:16,239 --> 00:55:19,440
Speaker 1: is a different animal than Renee Good, right. I think

1143
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:21,799
Speaker 1: Renee Good was just a product of her environment. Right,

1144
00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:25,080
Speaker 1: she had been married she now, I was married to

1145
00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:28,239
Speaker 1: a chick. You know she goes there and you know

1146
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:30,520
Speaker 1: she didn't expect anything bad to happen. But guess what

1147
00:55:31,160 --> 00:55:34,480
Speaker 1: if you barrel your car towards ice agents in a

1148
00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:38,399
Speaker 1: heightened situation, things might not work out. But this Alex guy,

1149
00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:41,280
Speaker 1: who the media has portrayed is some kind of a saint,

1150
00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:44,520
Speaker 1: and every nurse all of a sudden is standing up

1151
00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:46,640
Speaker 1: saying yeah, yeah, you know.

1152
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:49,600
Speaker 3: It's like it's like, it's.

1153
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:53,840
Speaker 1: It's weird how sometimes the left will coalesce around things

1154
00:55:53,880 --> 00:55:58,040
Speaker 1: that don't necessarily I think deserve it, you know, telling

1155
00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:01,920
Speaker 1: ice officers to effing arrest me and assault me and

1156
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:04,400
Speaker 1: spitting on them and kicking out tailights and stuff like that.

1157
00:56:04,480 --> 00:56:07,040
Speaker 1: I don't know where people think that gets you, but

1158
00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:08,640
Speaker 1: it just goes to show you that why is a

1159
00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:12,319
Speaker 1: guy and how does he become radicalized? Who's what you

1160
00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:14,839
Speaker 1: think would be a pretty good job, And before all

1161
00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:17,040
Speaker 1: of this started to happen, seemed to be pretty normal.

1162
00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:18,359
Speaker 3: Where did he go off track?

1163
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:21,160
Speaker 1: And it happens both ways, right, you get lunatic conservatives

1164
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:23,120
Speaker 1: just like you get lunatic liberals. I'm not saying this

1165
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:26,279
Speaker 1: is only a Democrat thing, but in this instance, you

1166
00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:28,719
Speaker 1: know the way they point that guy at that guy

1167
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:32,040
Speaker 1: and now somehow it's Christy Nomes's fault for her to

1168
00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:34,839
Speaker 1: do her job, It just doesn't make a lot of sense.

1169
00:56:34,840 --> 00:56:37,200
Speaker 1: So it'll be interesting to see what she says. These

1170
00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:39,960
Speaker 1: radicals are attacking me, I quote, but I'm just doing

1171
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:42,680
Speaker 1: my job. I'm following the law. I'm enforcing the laws.

1172
00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:44,520
Speaker 1: President Trump promised that he would do to keep our

1173
00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:48,760
Speaker 1: people safe in this country, and he ran on the border,

1174
00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:51,480
Speaker 1: he ran on immigration, and he's doing what he said

1175
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:54,920
Speaker 1: he would do. So our sales is with an S

1176
00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:56,920
Speaker 1: on the end of it. Nick, it's my hometown in

1177
00:56:56,960 --> 00:57:03,120
Speaker 1: our sales, my home town. That's another Bruce song. Thanks Scotti.

1210
00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:41,600
Speaker 1: to live to the age of us seventy nine. I'd

1211
00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:43,160
Speaker 1: say that's a good run. That's what we like to

1212

1219
00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:06,440
Speaker 1: I was going to say, but how are you feeling

1220
00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:07,200
Speaker 1: about yourself today?

1221
00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:07,600
Speaker 3: Are you good?

1222
00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:09,120
Speaker 1: Because I look over at the guy I'm working with,

1223
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:11,280
Speaker 1: and at any moment I don't know what he's capable

1224
00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:14,000
Speaker 1: of doing. He just doesn't seem like he's happy with himself.

1225
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:16,240
Speaker 1: But you you got a good career, You're working for

1226
00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:20,560
Speaker 1: a great network. Tell me about this new study according

1227
00:59:20,560 --> 00:59:23,840
Speaker 1: to the CDC about how things have bounced back post COVID.

1228
00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:27,560
Speaker 14: Remember in twenty twenty one, we were all talking about

1229
00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:31,160
Speaker 14: this right if life expectancy had dropped, and that was

1230
00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:33,200
Speaker 14: a little alarming to everybody. It was down to seventy

1231
00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:34,760
Speaker 14: six and a half years of age. We're now at

1232
00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:38,000
Speaker 14: seventy nine. As you note, for women life expectancies at

1233
00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:40,760
Speaker 14: eighty one and a half, for men at seventy six

1234
00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:44,560
Speaker 14: and a half the leading causes of death still remain

1235
00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:49,800
Speaker 14: heart disease, cancer, and unintentional injuries, but all of those

1236
00:59:49,840 --> 00:59:54,840
Speaker 14: categories have seen dropped. Suicide did replace COVID nineteen as

1237
00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:57,960
Speaker 14: the tenth leading cause of death. But the bright spot

1238
00:59:58,120 --> 01:00:02,120
Speaker 14: here within the overall the right spot of higher life

1239
01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:05,280
Speaker 14: expectancy is the age group with the biggest death rate

1240
01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:08,840
Speaker 14: decline were for people between the ages of fifteen and

1241
01:00:08,880 --> 01:00:12,160
Speaker 14: thirty four, and the biggest mortality cause drop in the

1242
01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:15,760
Speaker 14: death rate was within the unintentional injury category that does

1243
01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:18,040
Speaker 14: include car accidents and drug overdoses.

1244
01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:20,520
Speaker 1: You know, I wonder, I wonder what the tail of

1245
01:00:20,560 --> 01:00:22,840
Speaker 1: the tape. We'll say, a few years down the road,

1246
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:27,880
Speaker 1: with this big drug enforcement push from Trump and the

1247
01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:30,240
Speaker 1: taking out of some of these narco terrorists, if in

1248
01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:33,320
Speaker 1: the removal of fetanol, if that age group that you

1249
01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:34,160
Speaker 1: mentioned there wouldn't go.

1250
01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:36,959
Speaker 13: Up a little bit, I mean, that's the hope.

1251
01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:39,480
Speaker 14: Although let's remember these are numbers from twenty twenty four.

1252
01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:42,200
Speaker 14: President Trump wasn't even president for his second term yet,

1253
01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:44,240
Speaker 14: and we were starting to see this decline in drug

1254
01:00:44,240 --> 01:00:47,000
Speaker 14: overdose deaths, and so it does make you wonder why

1255
01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:53,840
Speaker 14: there's been a focus among doctors to prescribe fewer opioids.

1256
01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:56,680
Speaker 14: There's been an increased use in deployment of narcan. You know,

1257
01:00:56,720 --> 01:00:59,560
Speaker 14: police and deputies are increasingly carrying that around in the

1258
01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:03,320
Speaker 14: event of overdose. And even people who engage in recreational

1259
01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:06,600
Speaker 14: drug use, they use those those test strips more often

1260
01:01:06,600 --> 01:01:10,200
Speaker 14: now to test the drugs for fentanyl. And when it

1261
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:12,760
Speaker 14: comes to the other causes, like, for example, we're talking

1262
01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:15,320
Speaker 14: about heart disease being still the number one cause, right,

1263
01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:18,920
Speaker 14: so why why is it going down? Experts say it's

1264
01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:22,600
Speaker 14: a combination of things, including weight management and medication. You

1265
01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:25,680
Speaker 14: might say weight weight management, did obesity also go down?

1266
01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:28,600
Speaker 14: And apparently it did a bit. Gallup News reported the

1267
01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:31,680
Speaker 14: adult obesity rate dropped to thirty seven percent in twenty

1268
01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:34,840
Speaker 14: twenty five. That's down almost three points in three years.

1269
01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:37,440
Speaker 14: That might just be a long way of saying ozepic,

1270
01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:39,600
Speaker 14: but we know there are some high hope, you know,

1271
01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:40,320
Speaker 14: it's just metical.

1272
01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:43,600
Speaker 1: It's interesting you say that because yesterday we had a

1273
01:01:43,600 --> 01:01:46,400
Speaker 1: study saying that I think it was by twenty thirty

1274
01:01:46,440 --> 01:01:49,400
Speaker 1: five that like fifty percent of Americans were to be

1275
01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:52,280
Speaker 1: considered obese, and I thought, well, that doesn't really add

1276
01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:55,000
Speaker 1: up because with these GLP one drugs, I mean you

1277
01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:58,200
Speaker 1: could see people that had weight on them forever and

1278
01:01:58,240 --> 01:02:00,560
Speaker 1: now they're walking around looking like a you know, just

1279
01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:03,080
Speaker 1: a mere portion of themselves. Right.

1280
01:02:03,560 --> 01:02:07,080
Speaker 14: Well, that's an interesting stat and it might be a

1281
01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:11,600
Speaker 14: statistic gathered like let's say, if we weren't using these drugs.

1282
01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:15,960
Speaker 14: I'm not sure about the the that particular study. But

1283
01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:18,760
Speaker 14: you know, it's still an expensive drug. These these glp

1284
01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:21,240
Speaker 14: ones are still expensive. Not everyone can get their hands

1285
01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:23,640
Speaker 14: on them. So we'll see if the price can drop

1286
01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:26,200
Speaker 14: even further. We know President Trump has worked on that

1287
01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:29,640
Speaker 14: with the most Favored Nation pricing that he's trying to

1288
01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:32,320
Speaker 14: get and we've already seen prices for GLP ones drop.

1289
01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:36,080
Speaker 14: They're also you know, not everybody wants to try that route.

1290
01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:39,480
Speaker 14: There are some fears of putting it's a relatively it

1291
01:02:39,560 --> 01:02:41,800
Speaker 14: feels I mean, these are peptides, so it's not new,

1292
01:02:41,920 --> 01:02:44,520
Speaker 14: but it feels relatively new to us and in the

1293
01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:47,160
Speaker 14: packaging and in the form in which they're being marketed.

1294
01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:50,080
Speaker 14: And so we'll see, we'll see how many people jump

1295
01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:52,280
Speaker 14: on that bandwagon and if people feel safe doing so.

1296
01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:54,720
Speaker 14: But I mean we've spoken to doctor Martin McCarey, the

1297
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:58,200
Speaker 14: FDA Commissioner, for our podcast a few times, and he

1298
01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:02,480
Speaker 14: has very high hopes that these drugs will will absolutely

1299
01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:07,960
Speaker 14: not only help reduce the death rate, but the downstream

1300
01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:11,080
Speaker 14: effects of that can be felt, he says in heart,

1301
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:13,920
Speaker 14: you know, and I'm strying diabetes and kidney disease and

1302
01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:14,760
Speaker 14: blood pressure.

1303
01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:15,480
Speaker 13: You know.

1304
01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:19,440
Speaker 14: We hope to see health rebound in a lot of

1305
01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:22,360
Speaker 14: areas as the downstream effects of losing weight can really

1306
01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:23,800
Speaker 14: impact a lot of things.

1307
01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:26,080
Speaker 1: I would wonder if this new food pyramid will shape

1308
01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:27,840
Speaker 1: things up as well. Right, people are going to start

1309
01:03:27,840 --> 01:03:31,200
Speaker 1: eating better. It's funny because I have this conversation in

1310
01:03:31,240 --> 01:03:35,080
Speaker 1: my family a lot my parents and especially I'm side

1311
01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:35,560
Speaker 1: of the family.

1312
01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:37,640
Speaker 3: They all live to be one hundred years old.

1313
01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:39,760
Speaker 1: And I said, well, it's the one thing that their

1314
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:43,800
Speaker 1: life started with, you know, wholesome food that wasn't through

1315
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:47,480
Speaker 1: a window, you know, driving up getting your meal through

1316
01:03:47,480 --> 01:03:49,760
Speaker 1: a window, and everything that's changed since then. But with

1317
01:03:49,840 --> 01:03:52,560
Speaker 1: this RFK guy, looks like we might turn that around

1318
01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:54,520
Speaker 1: as well. Nick, how many smokes have you had today?

1319
01:03:54,960 --> 01:03:56,040

1346
01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:52,560

Speaker 1: has sailed.

1348
01:04:54,640 --> 01:04:55,880
Speaker 3: We should probably work on.

1349
01:04:56,720 --> 01:05:00,520
Speaker 1: The smoking, the smoking what age you want to go

1352
01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:08,120
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the Chicago River. Last weekend we were

1353
01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:09,440
Speaker 1: here and I said, boy, you know it's been this

1354
01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:10,919
Speaker 1: cold yet that thing still open.

1355
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:13,320
Speaker 3: Now she s froze over today.

1356
01:05:13,320 --> 01:05:16,200
Speaker 1: Do you think that maybe we could do get the

1357
01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:19,320
Speaker 1: the nineteen seventy nine arcticat links that you bought for

1358
01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:21,400
Speaker 1: free last year. You fixed her up, you got a rolling.

1359
01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:23,840
Speaker 1: Maybe we put Stephanie on that thing and see if

1360
01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:28,800
Speaker 1: that river a holder. Sure be good for the socials kid.

1361
01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:32,680
Speaker 1: Coming up this morning at eight five, we're going to

1362
01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:35,480
Speaker 1: talk with our friend, Sheriff James Bender. This guy does

1363
01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:41,040
Speaker 1: a great job when it comes to the rehab. The

1364
01:05:41,800 --> 01:05:45,640
Speaker 1: way he works the two page County jail, second largest

1365
01:05:45,680 --> 01:05:50,200
Speaker 1: budget he handles within that network of you know, police

1366
01:05:50,240 --> 01:05:54,240
Speaker 1: officers and jailing and everything else. We will talk to

1367
01:05:54,320 --> 01:05:56,480
Speaker 1: him about, you know, his chances and what he thinks.

1368
01:05:56,920 --> 01:06:00,800
Speaker 1: Looking forward to the GOP is a goubinatorial hopeful here

1369
01:06:00,800 --> 01:06:03,320
Speaker 1: in the state of Illinois. Now looking ahead, you can

1370
01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:06,120
Speaker 1: look at a lot of polls that show Darren Bailey

1371
01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:08,440
Speaker 1: is out in front by a large margin. But to

1372
01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:11,560
Speaker 1: Mendrick is in second in many of these polls. So

1373
01:06:11,680 --> 01:06:13,200
Speaker 1: what does he think he has to do to tighten

1374
01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:18,040
Speaker 1: up that gap? Now between now an election time, Nick,

1375
01:06:18,080 --> 01:06:18,560
Speaker 1: you take.

1376
01:06:18,440 --> 01:06:22,360
Speaker 3: It, I have to hack. That's fine. We like Sheriff Mendrick.

1377
01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:23,040
Speaker 3: Thank you.

1378
01:06:23,080 --> 01:06:25,640
Speaker 4: The recent polls saw it showed that the Darren Bayley

1379
01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:28,560
Speaker 4: was leading, but that was a poll commissioned by Darren Bailey.

1380
01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:31,640
Speaker 1: Well, and then then you know, you've got to Heidner

1381
01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:32,800
Speaker 1: who's coming to the race.

1382
01:06:32,840 --> 01:06:35,120
Speaker 3: And I don't have a lot of money.

1383
01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:37,680
Speaker 1: He's got money, but you know where's he spending it.

1384
01:06:38,040 --> 01:06:43,320
Speaker 1: I see a very small buy on the local Fox affiliate,

1385
01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:46,920
Speaker 1: not a Fox affiliate meaning Fox News, but it's targeted

1386
01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:52,880
Speaker 1: to local here in Illinois. It seems to be Darren

1387
01:06:52,880 --> 01:06:56,840
Speaker 1: Bailey's race to lose. And then how do you beat prisker.

1388
01:06:57,200 --> 01:06:59,000
Speaker 1: That's the next thing when it comes to money, and

1389
01:06:59,120 --> 01:07:01,360
Speaker 1: you look at the ridiculuslessness of everything that's going on

1390
01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:03,280
Speaker 1: in the world. And I thought it was funny and

1391
01:07:03,320 --> 01:07:05,760
Speaker 1: odd at the same time, because if you didn't laugh

1392
01:07:05,840 --> 01:07:08,320
Speaker 1: or find it funny, you just cry. But when Tim

1393
01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:12,920
Speaker 1: Walls was found out about this fraud in Minnesota, everybody

1394
01:07:12,960 --> 01:07:15,160
Speaker 1: wrote love letters in support of what a great guy

1395
01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:18,200
Speaker 1: Tim Walls is. Forget about the federal funds, forget about

1396
01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:20,680
Speaker 1: the money that's gone right, but gosh, he's such a

1397
01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:25,240
Speaker 1: good guy, and almost every Democrat governor supported him, And

1398
01:07:25,280 --> 01:07:30,080
Speaker 1: I wonder why is that? Just because there's fraud all

1399
01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:33,040
Speaker 1: over these blue states and they're just trying to cover it.

1400
01:07:33,040 --> 01:07:37,200
Speaker 3: Up part of it. You know, here's the thing.

1401
01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:43,040
Speaker 4: I don't think Pritzker's going to lose, right unless the

1402
01:07:43,080 --> 01:07:47,480
Speaker 4: movement like Chicago flips rad those you know, things like

1403
01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:49,400
Speaker 4: that have got to keep happening. People have got to

1404
01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:52,600
Speaker 4: start waking up, especially if you're in the African American community.

1405
01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:56,320
Speaker 4: If you're in the Hispanic community, and you know you

1406
01:07:56,400 --> 01:08:00,160
Speaker 4: saw everything kind of taken away from you because of

1407
01:08:01,240 --> 01:08:04,520
Speaker 4: supporting the illegals that are here, I would think you'd

1408
01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:08,760
Speaker 4: want to rethink your vote and vote for a Republican

1409
01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:11,680
Speaker 4: who's gonna you'll do something about it.

1410
01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:14,680
Speaker 1: Millions upon millions upon millions, probably into the billions. You

1411
01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:16,759
Speaker 1: look at the budget shortfall that you have in Chicago

1412
01:08:16,840 --> 01:08:19,320
Speaker 1: under Brandon Johnson, right, and then you look at what

1413
01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:23,439
Speaker 1: went on in the end of the Biden administration at

1414
01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:26,479
Speaker 1: the beginning of the Johnson BJ Johnson era here the

1415
01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:29,000
Speaker 1: lowest rated BJ ever and the money that was spent

1416
01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:32,760
Speaker 1: on welcoming centers and phones and healthcare and things like that,

1417
01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:37,439
Speaker 1: And hey, man, I don't fault immigrants for using that stuff.

1418
01:08:37,479 --> 01:08:40,679
Speaker 1: They had a velvet rope that was unlocked and they said,

1419
01:08:40,920 --> 01:08:42,759
Speaker 1: you go right ahead in you go up to Chicago.

1420
01:08:42,800 --> 01:08:44,800
Speaker 1: They're going to take care of you. They did what

1421
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:47,080
Speaker 1: they were allowed to do. I don't put this on them.

1422
01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:50,040
Speaker 1: They were allowed to come here, and now they're suffering

1423
01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:53,160
Speaker 1: the repercussions of that. This really is a Joe Biden

1424
01:08:53,240 --> 01:08:56,759
Speaker 1: fiasco and it sucks because he did it to these people,

1425
01:08:56,920 --> 01:08:57,639
Speaker 1: and it's bad.

1426
01:08:57,439 --> 01:08:59,960
Speaker 3: For everybody involved. What happened.

1427
01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:04,680
Speaker 4: I'm just thinking back to when the governor of Texas,

1428
01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:07,400
Speaker 4: and it happened in Florida two where they were busting

1429
01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:13,160
Speaker 4: right the illegals to Chicago and in Minneapolis in places

1430
01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:17,040
Speaker 4: like that. Is there any recourse there? I mean, you

1431
01:09:17,040 --> 01:09:19,200
Speaker 4: can't blame the guy for not wanting him in his state.

1432
01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:22,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, because now he saw what was going to happen

1433
01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:24,720
Speaker 1: to his budget, right right, And that's what's happened in

1434
01:09:24,800 --> 01:09:26,920
Speaker 1: the state of Illinois. And we're all paying the bill

1435
01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:27,200
Speaker 1: for it.

1436
01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:29,519
Speaker 4: Right, But in those black and brown communities that they're

1437
01:09:29,520 --> 01:09:31,880
Speaker 4: suffering this that suffered the.

1438
01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:36,639
Speaker 1: Most, specifically the black community, and they have taken notice,

1439
01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:40,000
Speaker 1: and they should, they should, But you got to vote different.

1440
01:09:40,320 --> 01:09:42,600
Speaker 1: But and that's the thing, you know, it's like, Okay, well,

1441
01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:44,040
Speaker 1: who's taking you to the polls and who are they

1442
01:09:44,080 --> 01:09:46,559
Speaker 1: telling you to vote for? And don't think there's anything

1443
01:09:46,600 --> 01:09:49,360
Speaker 1: going on nefarious there as well. We live in Chicago,

1444
01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:53,439
Speaker 1: we understand it. You've been talking about this cop that's

1445
01:09:53,479 --> 01:09:57,160
Speaker 1: been sentenced in the Sonya Massy shooting. Yeah, and you know,

1446
01:09:57,560 --> 01:10:01,120
Speaker 1: we we support law enforcement here. We do our first

1447
01:10:01,120 --> 01:10:04,320
Speaker 1: responder Fridays. I know that I get told all the

1448
01:10:04,320 --> 01:10:07,040
Speaker 1: time by friends within the department here in Chicago that

1449
01:10:07,160 --> 01:10:10,920
Speaker 1: they appreciate how WLSAM eight ninety stands up for them.

1450
01:10:11,640 --> 01:10:13,519
Speaker 1: But I think there were so many mistakes made here

1451
01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:15,360
Speaker 1: and I got to ask what. And I'm gonna ask

1452
01:10:15,360 --> 01:10:17,240
Speaker 1: Mendrick this too. I don't want to, I don't want

1453
01:10:17,240 --> 01:10:19,280
Speaker 1: to divert from his time to talk about his run

1454
01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:21,320
Speaker 1: for governor, but I do want to ask him what

1455
01:10:21,479 --> 01:10:24,320
Speaker 1: he thinks the mindset might have been for the heirar

1456
01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:27,240
Speaker 1: of this guy by saying him in county, this guy

1457
01:10:27,320 --> 01:10:31,000
Speaker 1: Sean Grayson, because he had been at six different departments

1458
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:33,519
Speaker 1: in four years, right, which to me that seems a

1459
01:10:33,560 --> 01:10:34,440
Speaker 1: little problematic.

1460
01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:41,320
Speaker 4: Well, I think he reacted as a lot of officers

1461
01:10:41,360 --> 01:10:44,200
Speaker 4: would have reacted. She was reaching for a pot of

1462
01:10:44,200 --> 01:10:46,559
Speaker 4: boiling water. I disagree, and screaming at him.

1463
01:10:46,560 --> 01:10:49,080
Speaker 1: I disagree because I you know, we talk so much

1464
01:10:49,120 --> 01:10:53,240
Speaker 1: about mental health and mental health in this state, and

1465
01:10:54,600 --> 01:10:57,599
Speaker 1: I've got some partly personals to this with a family

1466
01:10:57,640 --> 01:11:02,800
Speaker 1: member who had a a breakdown of epic proportions. It

1467
01:11:02,840 --> 01:11:05,920
Speaker 1: was basically tackled by seven cops in that instance. They

1468
01:11:05,920 --> 01:11:08,559
Speaker 1: didn't know what to do with her. And I get it, right,

1469
01:11:08,640 --> 01:11:11,600
Speaker 1: you're in a situation where things might get volatile, But

1470
01:11:11,880 --> 01:11:14,360
Speaker 1: in the situation where I'm talking, there was nothing at

1471
01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:17,160
Speaker 1: stake of a weapon or anything else. It was just

1472
01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:19,599
Speaker 1: excitable delirium and they couldn't get her under control.

1473
01:11:20,320 --> 01:11:22,280
Speaker 3: But with this, she had.

1474
01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:26,879
Speaker 1: Called police because she was worried about somebody outside, perpetrator whatever.

1475
01:11:27,120 --> 01:11:29,120
Speaker 1: And I don't know how or what or if that

1476
01:11:29,360 --> 01:11:31,880
Speaker 1: was a real threat or why she called police. If

1477
01:11:31,920 --> 01:11:34,439
Speaker 1: that wasn't a real threat, she obviously had some issues.

1478
01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:35,920
Speaker 3: But if you're worried.

1479
01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:38,320
Speaker 1: About getting a pot of boiling water thrown at you,

1480
01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:39,320
Speaker 1: don't you just back up?

1481
01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:47,880
Speaker 3: I don't know. I wasn't there. She was screaming at him.

1482
01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:50,240
Speaker 4: I rebuke you in the name of Jesus, right right,

1483
01:11:50,280 --> 01:11:54,719
Speaker 4: I mean she was going nuts. Now maybe the answer, okay,

1484
01:11:54,880 --> 01:11:56,360
Speaker 4: back up, or how about a taser.

1485
01:11:57,880 --> 01:11:59,840
Speaker 3: It's a hard deal, I just you know.

1486
01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:03,240
Speaker 4: But yeah, so he's he was sentenced to twenty he'll

1487
01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:04,479
Speaker 4: probably serve half of.

1488
01:12:04,439 --> 01:12:05,640
Speaker 3: That, you know.

1489
01:12:05,720 --> 01:12:07,839
Speaker 1: And and and this is to me, this is different,

1490
01:12:08,200 --> 01:12:10,240
Speaker 1: so different. You know a lot of people trying to

1491
01:12:10,320 --> 01:12:13,240
Speaker 1: draw comparisons to this and George Floyd, but this is.

1492
01:12:13,240 --> 01:12:16,120
Speaker 3: So different than that. You can't even mental health.

1493
01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:19,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, now George Floyd probably had some mental health issues too.

1494
01:12:20,800 --> 01:12:21,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1495
01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:24,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, So we'll ask that of our friend to Sheriff

1496
01:12:24,160 --> 01:12:26,240
Speaker 1: James Mendrick. Also ask him what he's doing to uh

1497
01:12:26,600 --> 01:12:28,599
Speaker 1: to stump and uh, you know, how we can help him,

1498
01:12:28,640 --> 01:12:30,519
Speaker 1: and uh and and and and the like, because he

1499
01:12:30,600 --> 01:12:34,880
Speaker 1: is a really really good guy. All right, coming up next,

1500
01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:36,240
Speaker 1: what we're going to do here, So we're going to

1501
01:12:36,280 --> 01:12:39,600
Speaker 1: talk to the sheriff and then uh, during at the

1502
01:12:39,680 --> 01:12:41,519
Speaker 1: end of that conversation, we want to set you up

1503
01:12:42,040 --> 01:12:43,880
Speaker 1: for tickets to go to the Chicago Auto Show.

1504
01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:45,200
Speaker 3: Chicago Auto Show is back.

1505
01:12:45,240 --> 01:12:47,360
Speaker 1: This is always one of those deals that kind of says,

1506
01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:49,960
Speaker 1: you know what, man, maybe spring isn't so far off.

1507
01:12:49,960 --> 01:12:51,960
Speaker 1: And Mark and Jim and the guys at the Chicago

1508
01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:56,200
Speaker 1: Automobile Trade Association are doing a really nice job of

1509
01:12:56,240 --> 01:12:58,000
Speaker 1: putting this thing together. As a matter of fact, Nick,

1510
01:12:58,400 --> 01:12:59,920
Speaker 1: they're going to give us a drift car where you

1511
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:02,840
Speaker 1: and I can take over some Chicago streets this year

1512
01:13:02,880 --> 01:13:05,320
Speaker 1: and cost some havoc. See if we can't get arrested. Well,

1513
01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:08,519
Speaker 1: tell you America's America's off track a little bit. This morning,

1514
01:13:08,520 --> 01:13:11,639
Speaker 1: we're having shutdowns. You know, your favorite to coffee shop,

1515
01:13:11,680 --> 01:13:14,439
Speaker 1: your favorite store might be closed today because people are

1516
01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:18,880
Speaker 1: standing up against ice and immigration reform and basically sticking

1517
01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:19,879
Speaker 1: up for criminals.

1518
01:13:19,880 --> 01:13:22,160
Speaker 3: I don't know where this all heads.

1519
01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:23,600
Speaker 1: I don't know where it leads, but I would like

1520
01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:25,160
Speaker 1: it to just tamp down a little bit so we

1521
01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:28,560
Speaker 1: can get to the root cause of the protests in Minneapolis,

1522
01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:31,840
Speaker 1: and that is that Somali fraud everybody's talking about.

1523
01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:33,360
Speaker 3: We'll talk about that coming up.

1524
01:13:33,400 --> 01:13:36,759
Speaker 1: We'll also talk about a new fed share being announced

1525
01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:40,400
Speaker 1: by Donald J. Trump coming up here in just moments.

1526
01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:42,160
Speaker 1: We're gonna have tickets for you to go to the

1527
01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:45,880
Speaker 1: Chicago Auto Show. Our next guest, Nick a body of ours,

1528
01:13:46,360 --> 01:13:48,640
Speaker 1: and we call him that because he came to us

1529
01:13:48,680 --> 01:13:51,280
Speaker 1: as a listener. He is the sheriff a DuPage County

1530
01:13:51,280 --> 01:13:57,200
Speaker 1: where he does a wonderful job just giving new life

1531
01:13:57,640 --> 01:14:00,360
Speaker 1: to people that have hit a hard place in their

1532
01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:03,000
Speaker 1: in their journey. And he's done such a good job

1533
01:14:03,040 --> 01:14:05,960
Speaker 1: with that. I wish that more people would recognize, you know,

1534
01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:08,320
Speaker 1: the way he works with people to say yes, this

1535
01:14:08,360 --> 01:14:11,080
Speaker 1: guy would be a great choice for any higher position.

1536
01:14:11,680 --> 01:14:13,519
Speaker 1: And although he is in a high position as a

1537
01:14:13,600 --> 01:14:16,600
Speaker 1: DuPage County sheriff, he wants to be the governor of

1538
01:14:16,640 --> 01:14:20,320
Speaker 1: the state of Illinois. It's our friend, Sheriff James Mendrick, Hello, Sheriff,

1539
01:14:20,360 --> 01:14:21,800
Speaker 1: Welcome to WLS.

1540
01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:24,240
Speaker 7: How are you guys doing this morning, buddy?

1541
01:14:24,280 --> 01:14:25,800
Speaker 3: We are doing all right. I want to start right

1542
01:14:25,840 --> 01:14:26,759
Speaker 3: away with the polls.

1543
01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:29,240
Speaker 1: And you know, I thought after twenty sixteen, when everybody

1544
01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:34,240
Speaker 1: said that a very golden haired you know, finally tan

1545
01:14:34,400 --> 01:14:36,760
Speaker 1: president could not beat Hillary Clinton. He had no way

1546
01:14:36,760 --> 01:14:38,920
Speaker 1: of winning. Blew those poles out of the water. I

1547
01:14:38,920 --> 01:14:40,840
Speaker 1: thought we were done with Poles, but yet we still

1548
01:14:40,880 --> 01:14:43,439
Speaker 1: cite him. The polls show that Darren Bailey has a

1549
01:14:43,439 --> 01:14:45,320
Speaker 1: sizeable lead. How do you dig into that?

1550
01:14:46,439 --> 01:14:48,840
Speaker 7: So the polls are created by Darren Bailey if you

1551
01:14:48,880 --> 01:14:51,160
Speaker 7: look at that's the funny thing. If you look at

1552
01:14:51,160 --> 01:14:53,360
Speaker 7: the most recent polls that have him up so far,

1553
01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:58,040
Speaker 7: they're by his political team. So you know, Poles is Idland.

1554
01:14:58,080 --> 01:15:01,719
Speaker 7: So when I first ran in my primary, they told

1555
01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:05,240
Speaker 7: me two weeks before the election, hey, you're down sixteen

1556
01:15:05,320 --> 01:15:08,240
Speaker 7: and a half percent, and then I won by thirty

1557
01:15:08,280 --> 01:15:12,519
Speaker 7: eight percent. And polls in the political world, they're made

1558
01:15:12,560 --> 01:15:15,280
Speaker 7: for two reasons. First, you want to have the scare

1559
01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:18,880
Speaker 7: factor and the trending factor, where hey, look, I'm ahead, groupthink,

1560
01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:21,720
Speaker 7: just vote for me because no one else can win.

1561
01:15:21,760 --> 01:15:24,640
Speaker 7: I'm ahead the polls. The second part they use for

1562
01:15:24,680 --> 01:15:28,439
Speaker 7: the polls is for these political neophytes that have all

1563
01:15:28,439 --> 01:15:30,920
Speaker 7: these companies to make money. Hey you're down in the polls,

1564
01:15:30,960 --> 01:15:33,639
Speaker 7: but if you pay me sixty thousand dollars, I can

1565
01:15:33,680 --> 01:15:37,280
Speaker 7: fix that for you. Noah, do literature mailings whatever. So

1566
01:15:37,600 --> 01:15:40,840
Speaker 7: polls I've never really seen them be very accurate. They are,

1567
01:15:41,120 --> 01:15:44,479
Speaker 7: you know, I heard the questions that most recent poll

1568
01:15:45,080 --> 01:15:49,120
Speaker 7: was who would you prefer to vote for for Governor

1569
01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:52,559
Speaker 7: Darren Baylor or one of the other candidates. That's a

1570
01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:53,519
Speaker 7: great polling question.

1571
01:15:53,640 --> 01:15:58,360
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, and I get that, but there's no mistaking

1572
01:15:58,439 --> 01:16:00,880
Speaker 1: that won. The guy has some backing, he's got the

1573
01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:04,240
Speaker 1: name recognition, and he's bigger in the south part of

1574
01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:06,240
Speaker 1: the state than he isn't the north. I understand that's

1575
01:16:06,280 --> 01:16:10,240
Speaker 1: why they've got Aaron Delmar as part of his ticket, right,

1576
01:16:10,280 --> 01:16:12,920
Speaker 1: because they think that that will shore up the city

1577
01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:16,599
Speaker 1: vote and then the southern vote. Do you have any

1578
01:16:16,640 --> 01:16:22,639
Speaker 1: thoughts tell me of going forward? How you you win this? Well,

1579
01:16:22,680 --> 01:16:26,880
Speaker 1: first of all, okay, you win the gop nod. Now

1580
01:16:26,920 --> 01:16:29,559
Speaker 1: you're up against Pritzker. How do you tackle that giant?

1581
01:16:30,560 --> 01:16:32,599
Speaker 7: Just put me on the debate floor next to him,

1582
01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:35,000
Speaker 7: and I'll take care of Pritzker. Same thing. I'll be

1583
01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:38,000
Speaker 7: honest with you. I've done about I think six debates

1584
01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:41,400
Speaker 7: now so far, and not to brag, but I've crushed

1585
01:16:41,400 --> 01:16:45,360
Speaker 7: every one of them. There has been no challenger for

1586
01:16:45,400 --> 01:16:47,840
Speaker 7: me on the debate floor. I'm doing very well there.

1587
01:16:48,360 --> 01:16:50,559
Speaker 7: I think that's obvious to the citizens. And I've been

1588
01:16:50,560 --> 01:16:53,559
Speaker 7: to eighty four counties. You can have all the money

1589
01:16:53,560 --> 01:16:55,400
Speaker 7: in the world, but you're going to spend it to

1590
01:16:55,400 --> 01:16:59,040
Speaker 7: touch people. And if you're not traveling like we are,

1591
01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:02,479
Speaker 7: you have to spend it on flyers, mailings, all that

1592
01:17:02,560 --> 01:17:05,200
Speaker 7: kind of stuff, and those aren't actually touching people. We're

1593
01:17:05,240 --> 01:17:09,320
Speaker 7: actually going to every single county in this state talking

1594
01:17:09,320 --> 01:17:13,519
Speaker 7: to the people, touching the people and really kind of

1595
01:17:13,560 --> 01:17:16,280
Speaker 7: winning them over in that respect. You know, I had

1596
01:17:16,320 --> 01:17:19,360
Speaker 7: a big event yesterday. There was probably twenty different gun

1597
01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:24,000
Speaker 7: companies that were supporting us an event yesterday. There are

1598
01:17:24,120 --> 01:17:27,960
Speaker 7: days that I go to five places per day and

1599
01:17:28,479 --> 01:17:31,640
Speaker 7: the people, the actual people are who's going to win

1600
01:17:31,680 --> 01:17:36,400
Speaker 7: a race. All is subterfuge and polling, and you know

1601
01:17:37,600 --> 01:17:39,320
Speaker 7: a lot of it it's smoking mirrors.

1602
01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:42,559
Speaker 1: You know, you bring up a good point because when

1603
01:17:42,560 --> 01:17:44,720
Speaker 1: I came back to work here a WLS, I told Nick,

1604
01:17:44,760 --> 01:17:47,280
Speaker 1: I said, the only way we can resurrect this radio

1605
01:17:47,360 --> 01:17:49,439
Speaker 1: station is we have got to go out and touch people,

1606
01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:51,880
Speaker 1: go to these communities and meet people. And it does.

1607
01:17:52,400 --> 01:17:54,880
Speaker 1: It does make a big difference. Let me ask you,

1608
01:17:55,200 --> 01:17:58,320
Speaker 1: and you said eighty four counties. You've been to eighty four.

1609
01:17:58,640 --> 01:18:01,200
Speaker 1: I think twelve of those counties went the secceed either

1610
01:18:01,240 --> 01:18:05,280
Speaker 1: to Iowa, or to Indiana, talk about the shape that

1611
01:18:05,479 --> 01:18:08,519
Speaker 1: Illinois is in, and what's your first thing to do. Okay,

1612
01:18:08,520 --> 01:18:11,120
Speaker 1: now you're Governor James Mendrick, what's the first thing you

1613
01:18:11,240 --> 01:18:13,800
Speaker 1: do to get business and to get the economy and

1614
01:18:13,840 --> 01:18:15,200
Speaker 1: get Illinois back on track.

1615
01:18:15,880 --> 01:18:18,200
Speaker 7: Okay, I'm going to go with what I was sitting

1616
01:18:18,200 --> 01:18:20,040
Speaker 7: here waiting to get on the show, and I was

1617
01:18:20,080 --> 01:18:22,800
Speaker 7: listening to all the ads and stuff like that, and

1618
01:18:22,840 --> 01:18:26,120
Speaker 7: what the big topic is right now is ice. So

1619
01:18:26,280 --> 01:18:29,479
Speaker 7: I want to explain very clearly, now this is my realm. Right,

1620
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:33,040
Speaker 7: I have the second biggest jail in this state, you

1621
01:18:33,040 --> 01:18:37,960
Speaker 7: know where the second biggest county. Okay, the ICE raids

1622
01:18:38,120 --> 01:18:43,280
Speaker 7: are wholly completely the fault of our governor, and as governor,

1623
01:18:43,280 --> 01:18:46,599
Speaker 7: on day one, with an executive order, I would dismiss

1624
01:18:46,640 --> 01:18:50,400
Speaker 7: the entirety of the sanctuary state. And here's why. So

1625
01:18:50,880 --> 01:18:53,200
Speaker 7: you know, I'd like to explain to people why the

1626
01:18:53,320 --> 01:18:56,360
Speaker 7: raids are not Tom Holman's fault, They're not Donald Trump's fault,

1627
01:18:56,400 --> 01:18:59,400
Speaker 7: They're not the federal government's fault. They are the fault

1628
01:18:59,479 --> 01:19:03,160
Speaker 7: squarely of our governor who will not allow ICE to

1629
01:19:03,160 --> 01:19:06,599
Speaker 7: have access to our correctional facilities. So, like I said,

1630
01:19:06,640 --> 01:19:09,880
Speaker 7: I went to eighty four different counties over the last

1631
01:19:09,920 --> 01:19:13,559
Speaker 7: eleven months. Do you know you could drive seven hours

1632
01:19:13,560 --> 01:19:15,920
Speaker 7: in Illinois and still be in Illinois.

1633
01:19:15,320 --> 01:19:16,360
Speaker 3: Which makes me sad.

1634
01:19:18,360 --> 01:19:22,000
Speaker 7: It's a very big state. But anyway, within that seven

1635
01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:27,880
Speaker 7: hour state, we have ninety two different jails and before

1636
01:19:27,920 --> 01:19:30,639
Speaker 7: the sanctuary state was incepted. And this is the big lie.

1637
01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:33,320
Speaker 7: This is what people have to realize. And that's why

1638
01:19:33,320 --> 01:19:35,760
Speaker 7: I love publications like you guys, because it's the only

1639
01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:38,679
Speaker 7: chance the truth can ever get out. Because the big

1640
01:19:38,760 --> 01:19:43,000
Speaker 7: lie is that there's some sanctuary within the sanctuary state.

1641
01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:45,720
Speaker 7: And here's the truth of it. What it does is

1642
01:19:45,760 --> 01:19:51,000
Speaker 7: it causes it forces the raids. The raids are because

1643
01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:52,680
Speaker 7: they don't have access to a jail. They have to

1644
01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:55,439
Speaker 7: go find their targets, the people that you know they're

1645
01:19:55,439 --> 01:19:58,320
Speaker 7: looking for for rape or murder. Now they have to

1646
01:19:58,360 --> 01:20:02,040
Speaker 7: go into society to home depots where they work, or

1647
01:20:02,439 --> 01:20:06,679
Speaker 7: housing where they live, or wherever they're doing their daily stuff.

1648
01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:08,840
Speaker 7: They have to do that, and they have to go

1649
01:20:08,920 --> 01:20:12,439
Speaker 7: into Chicago. And now you know, you have this government

1650
01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:15,920
Speaker 7: that's telling everybody fight with them, they're docing them, they're

1651
01:20:15,920 --> 01:20:18,120
Speaker 7: doing all this. So they have to a lot of

1652
01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:21,280
Speaker 7: risk to go in into a volatil you know, situation,

1653
01:20:21,960 --> 01:20:26,040
Speaker 7: and without the access to the jails, that's what they

1654
01:20:26,080 --> 01:20:27,639
Speaker 7: have to do. Now, if we were to say, let's

1655
01:20:27,640 --> 01:20:29,879
Speaker 7: get rid of the sanctuary state, you know, I'm governor,

1656
01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:33,679
Speaker 7: get rid of the sanctuary state tomorrow. And now here's

1657
01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:37,400
Speaker 7: what it would look like. Now, ninety two jails are

1658
01:20:37,400 --> 01:20:40,280
Speaker 7: going to call when they get somebody in for criminality.

1659
01:20:40,560 --> 01:20:42,519
Speaker 7: And mind you, I've never had anyone in my jail

1660
01:20:42,800 --> 01:20:45,280
Speaker 7: that was there just for immigration. You have to commit

1661
01:20:45,320 --> 01:20:48,040
Speaker 7: a crime that you or I would go to jail for. Also,

1662
01:20:48,720 --> 01:20:52,200
Speaker 7: you go in, they say, okay, there's a detainer, the

1663
01:20:52,280 --> 01:20:54,840
Speaker 7: consult will talk to you. There'll be like a mini trial.

1664
01:20:55,800 --> 01:20:58,840
Speaker 7: They'll get a a federal immigration judge involved in the

1665
01:20:58,920 --> 01:21:01,559
Speaker 7: determine if there's a deport If there is, then we

1666
01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:05,120
Speaker 7: just hand them off to Ice. Now, if ninety two

1667
01:21:05,240 --> 01:21:07,880
Speaker 7: jails we're calling, oh here, let me throw out another

1668
01:21:07,960 --> 01:21:10,599
Speaker 7: status to show you the volume of this and kind

1669
01:21:10,600 --> 01:21:13,880
Speaker 7: of why this is occurring. We lost eight hundred thousand

1670
01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:17,679
Speaker 7: people in Illinois in the last census, right, so eight

1671
01:21:17,840 --> 01:21:20,439
Speaker 7: hundred thousand of us that are sick of how things

1672
01:21:20,479 --> 01:21:24,080
Speaker 7: are going in Illinois, sick of regulation, taxation, crime, all

1673
01:21:24,120 --> 01:21:28,000
Speaker 7: that we left. Now we've been replaced by seven hundred

1674
01:21:28,040 --> 01:21:32,879
Speaker 7: thousand illegal immigrants. So take away eight hundred thousand residents,

1675
01:21:33,240 --> 01:21:37,040
Speaker 7: replace us with seven hundred thousand immigrants that will keep

1676
01:21:37,040 --> 01:21:39,240
Speaker 7: your senses because they're counted as the sens keeps your

1677
01:21:39,280 --> 01:21:41,439
Speaker 7: senses up, You get your congressional seats, all that kind

1678
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:45,040
Speaker 7: of stuff. But now instead of having eight hundred thousand

1679
01:21:45,040 --> 01:21:48,120
Speaker 7: people are complaining about government, you have seven hundred thousand

1680
01:21:48,120 --> 01:21:51,679
Speaker 7: people who are dependent on government, socialism, anybody. That's where

1681
01:21:51,680 --> 01:21:55,000
Speaker 7: this is all going. But anyway, back to the sanctuary

1682
01:21:55,040 --> 01:21:59,120
Speaker 7: state with if ninety two jails with seven hundred thousand

1683
01:21:59,120 --> 01:22:04,200
Speaker 7: immigrants here, legally, if we're calling every day about our detainers,

1684
01:22:04,760 --> 01:22:07,240
Speaker 7: ICE would have to stop. Now this is where my

1685
01:22:07,360 --> 01:22:10,439
Speaker 7: expertise comes. Trusting you guys. I have a you know,

1686
01:22:10,680 --> 01:22:13,880
Speaker 7: eighty million dollars budget, five hundred and four employees, three

1687
01:22:13,960 --> 01:22:17,040
Speaker 7: hundred contractors. I supervise eight hundred people in a government

1688
01:22:17,760 --> 01:22:21,400
Speaker 7: industry very much like ICE, and they would have to

1689
01:22:21,439 --> 01:22:26,320
Speaker 7: stop all proactivity and go into a reactive transport unit.

1690
01:22:26,680 --> 01:22:29,200
Speaker 7: They probably have to add twenty percent to their manpower

1691
01:22:29,320 --> 01:22:32,360
Speaker 7: just to come to ninety two jails across a very

1692
01:22:32,400 --> 01:22:34,759
Speaker 7: massive state that it takes seven hours to get across.

1693
01:22:34,880 --> 01:22:36,920
Speaker 1: You just think about the cost of that alone. Yeah, right,

1694
01:22:37,280 --> 01:22:41,560
Speaker 1: what that's costing taxpayers alone is ridiculous. Now Here, you

1695
01:22:41,640 --> 01:22:43,400
Speaker 1: got a lot of stature thrown at me. I got

1696
01:22:43,439 --> 01:22:45,439
Speaker 1: to stop here for a second for traffic when I

1697
01:22:45,479 --> 01:22:48,120
Speaker 1: come back. And this is James Mendrick do Page kind

1698
01:22:48,120 --> 01:22:50,160
Speaker 1: of shriff running for governor in the state of Illinois.

1699
01:22:50,320 --> 01:22:53,519
Speaker 1: I just want to get your your take. Nick and

1700
01:22:53,560 --> 01:22:56,640
Speaker 1: I are kind of odds, not a big fight, but

1701
01:22:56,720 --> 01:22:59,559
Speaker 1: over the way this shooting was handled in Sangamon County

1702
01:22:59,560 --> 01:23:03,599
Speaker 1: with this Sonia Massy. What went wrong or right there?

1703
01:23:03,640 --> 01:23:06,320
Speaker 1: Can you kind of give me your version of this

1704
01:23:06,400 --> 01:23:08,799
Speaker 1: as a law enforcement official of the highest regard?

1705
01:23:09,560 --> 01:23:11,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, I hate to say it, and I

1706
01:23:11,680 --> 01:23:14,880
Speaker 7: hate the armchair quarterback my brothers and sisters in blue,

1707
01:23:14,880 --> 01:23:18,880
Speaker 7: but you know, we we brag about having you know,

1708
01:23:18,960 --> 01:23:21,040
Speaker 7: no uses of force since I've been elected. Well, I

1709
01:23:21,040 --> 01:23:23,120
Speaker 7: shouldn't say no use us no use of force complaints.

1710
01:23:23,160 --> 01:23:26,040
Speaker 7: We've used force, but we've used it appropriately. But in

1711
01:23:26,120 --> 01:23:28,840
Speaker 7: seven years to do Page kind of shriffs off the

1712
01:23:28,840 --> 01:23:33,599
Speaker 7: second biggest patrol division in the state. Since I've been elected,

1713
01:23:33,640 --> 01:23:36,320
Speaker 7: we have not had one use of force complain against

1714
01:23:36,360 --> 01:23:38,759
Speaker 7: one road deputy by one citizen. So and the reason

1715
01:23:38,800 --> 01:23:41,960
Speaker 7: for that is de escalation training, mental health training. I mean,

1716
01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:44,360
Speaker 7: we have virtual reality helmets that you put them on

1717
01:23:44,439 --> 01:23:46,439
Speaker 7: and you're autistic, right, you know, you can see how

1718
01:23:46,479 --> 01:23:49,479
Speaker 7: bright and loud everything is. Right, you learn how to

1719
01:23:49,520 --> 01:23:53,200
Speaker 7: empathize with people in these conditions. And I think there

1720
01:23:53,280 --> 01:23:56,519
Speaker 7: was a pretty large, in my opinion, lack of training,

1721
01:23:58,040 --> 01:24:02,240
Speaker 7: you know, with Sonya Massy just seeing that body cam

1722
01:24:02,720 --> 01:24:07,000
Speaker 7: as a patrolman, I really can't understand how that occurred.

1723
01:24:07,360 --> 01:24:10,439
Speaker 7: I think that could have easily been de escalated. I

1724
01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:13,599
Speaker 7: myself could have de escalated that situation just in doing

1725
01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:17,559
Speaker 7: the job that I've been doing for thirty years. I

1726
01:24:17,600 --> 01:24:22,040
Speaker 7: don't think that officer, that deputy was properly trained and

1727
01:24:22,120 --> 01:24:24,040
Speaker 7: really knew how to handle situations like that.

1728
01:24:24,640 --> 01:24:27,720
Speaker 1: And I understand and I fully appreciate that it's hard

1729
01:24:27,720 --> 01:24:30,560
Speaker 1: to armchair quarterback, especially when you guys are doing a

1730
01:24:30,640 --> 01:24:32,280
Speaker 1: job that's tough. I mean, you look at what goes

1731
01:24:32,320 --> 01:24:34,760
Speaker 1: on with ice officers in Minneapolis. I don't know who

1732
01:24:34,800 --> 01:24:36,639
Speaker 1: in the heck would want to do this job anymore.

1733
01:24:37,160 --> 01:24:39,640
Speaker 1: The public seems to and I know it's just a

1734
01:24:39,680 --> 01:24:41,880
Speaker 1: small portion of the public, but still you have to

1735
01:24:41,920 --> 01:24:44,640
Speaker 1: deal with these people all the time. But there you

1736
01:24:44,680 --> 01:24:49,080
Speaker 1: go again. I was right, Nick was wrong. Sure, we

1737
01:24:49,120 --> 01:24:49,760
Speaker 1: appreciate you.

1738
01:24:50,040 --> 01:24:51,960
Speaker 7: Hey, I just want to say one last thing, and

1739
01:24:52,040 --> 01:24:54,040
Speaker 7: you know what, here's the different thing about me because

1740
01:24:54,040 --> 01:24:56,400
Speaker 7: I have found out so many different ways of stealing

1741
01:24:56,479 --> 01:25:01,200
Speaker 7: our tax payer money through government. I will still be

1742
01:25:01,240 --> 01:25:04,519
Speaker 7: a certified police officer two years as governor, and I

1743
01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:06,400
Speaker 7: will be in control of the state police. They're all

1744
01:25:06,400 --> 01:25:08,920
Speaker 7: going to go to jail for stealing money. And keep

1745
01:25:08,960 --> 01:25:11,240
Speaker 7: in mind, I'll be the first governor coming out of

1746
01:25:11,240 --> 01:25:12,560
Speaker 7: his jail instead of going into it.

1747
01:25:12,880 --> 01:25:15,320
Speaker 3: Wow. Yeah, great point. Nice line.

1748
01:25:15,320 --> 01:25:18,840
Speaker 1: Appreciated Sheriff James Mendrick here on WLSA and made ninety

1749
01:25:19,040 --> 01:25:20,240
Speaker 1: if we can. I just want to bring in on

1750
01:25:20,280 --> 01:25:22,920
Speaker 1: friend Mark Lucas real quick today because every Friday we

1751
01:25:23,080 --> 01:25:26,120
Speaker 1: like to talk about what's going on with the pet population,

1752
01:25:26,200 --> 01:25:30,680
Speaker 1: the cat population, the unhoused population, neck not homeless.

1753
01:25:30,360 --> 01:25:32,680
Speaker 3: Homeless, what's wrong with you? What do you have to

1754
01:25:32,720 --> 01:25:35,519
Speaker 3: be like that? Mark? Welcome back, buddy, how are you?

1755
01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:36,559
Speaker 7: Hey?

1756
01:25:36,640 --> 01:25:37,280
Speaker 6: Thank you guys.

1757
01:25:37,280 --> 01:25:39,360
Speaker 15: I really appreciate you having me and what a great

1758
01:25:39,400 --> 01:25:41,840
Speaker 15: guess you guys just had on. I love everything that

1759
01:25:41,880 --> 01:25:44,679
Speaker 15: he said. I really appreciate somebody that's, you know.

1760
01:25:45,120 --> 01:25:46,000
Speaker 3: Has common sense.

1761
01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:49,599
Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, I just I love I love that, and

1762
01:25:49,600 --> 01:25:51,280
Speaker 15: I'm so glad that you guys have people like.

1763
01:25:51,240 --> 01:25:51,720
Speaker 7: That on air.

1764
01:25:51,880 --> 01:25:52,040
Speaker 3: You know.

1765
01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:55,120
Speaker 1: We we have another weekend here in Chicago where it's

1766
01:25:55,160 --> 01:25:58,320
Speaker 1: it's just it's it's stupid cold. We've got snow, uh,

1767
01:25:58,479 --> 01:26:00,360
Speaker 1: you know, and I get so frustrated and I see

1768
01:26:00,360 --> 01:26:02,000
Speaker 1: people leaving their dogs outside.

1769
01:26:02,320 --> 01:26:03,720
Speaker 3: Be good to your pets this week.

1770
01:26:03,760 --> 01:26:06,240
Speaker 1: If you walk them, wipe the assault off their Pause

1771
01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:09,000
Speaker 1: and if you're looking for a pet, Mark's got some

1772
01:26:09,040 --> 01:26:10,720
Speaker 1: ideas and what we can do to help that pet

1773
01:26:10,760 --> 01:26:11,760
Speaker 1: population here in town.

1774
01:26:11,800 --> 01:26:12,719
Speaker 3: What's going on to Pause?

1775
01:26:13,439 --> 01:26:15,679
Speaker 15: Well, yeah, you know, before I talk about our event

1776
01:26:15,720 --> 01:26:18,200
Speaker 15: that we've got coming up on Saturday, I always talk

1777
01:26:18,240 --> 01:26:21,920
Speaker 15: to you guys about fundraising opportunities at Pause, and I

1778
01:26:22,400 --> 01:26:24,639
Speaker 15: think it's important that I kind of back up why

1779
01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:27,320
Speaker 15: we put our hands out and ask for help, and

1780
01:26:27,600 --> 01:26:30,320
Speaker 15: the easiest way to support the work that we do

1781
01:26:30,760 --> 01:26:32,400
Speaker 15: is to kind of give you an idea of what

1782
01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:37,479
Speaker 15: last year was like at Pause Chicago. We performed twenty one,

1783
01:26:37,560 --> 01:26:41,760
Speaker 15: three hundred and twenty seven Spain and newter surgeries last year,

1784
01:26:41,920 --> 01:26:45,759
Speaker 15: and those were all done at either free or low

1785
01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:49,479
Speaker 15: cost to communities that are underserved. And what that has

1786
01:26:49,640 --> 01:26:52,880
Speaker 15: done is truly made an impact not only the lies

1787
01:26:52,920 --> 01:26:57,080
Speaker 15: of the help those animals, but it shelters all across Chicago.

1788
01:26:57,520 --> 01:26:59,439
Speaker 15: I mean, it speaks to the depth of commitment of

1789
01:26:59,640 --> 01:27:02,559
Speaker 15: Pause and the people that are volunteering and are working

1790
01:27:02,560 --> 01:27:05,840
Speaker 15: at the organization, because that has led to a ninety

1791
01:27:05,880 --> 01:27:09,000
Speaker 15: percent reduction in use in asia across the city of Chicago.

1792
01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:11,200
Speaker 15: And I got to give us a shout out. We

1793
01:27:11,600 --> 01:27:17,040
Speaker 15: got recognized by a national organization for the Snippy Award.

1794
01:27:17,080 --> 01:27:17,719
Speaker 7: And I know you're.

1795
01:27:17,560 --> 01:27:18,240
Speaker 6: Gonna love that.

1796
01:27:19,960 --> 01:27:20,080
Speaker 3: Now.

1797
01:27:20,240 --> 01:27:23,200
Speaker 1: Now, are you guys going into these houses wearing masks

1798
01:27:23,200 --> 01:27:25,439
Speaker 1: and taking these dogs and cats against their will to

1799
01:27:25,439 --> 01:27:26,000
Speaker 1: be snipped?

1800
01:27:28,200 --> 01:27:28,800
Speaker 6: No, we're not.

1801
01:27:29,040 --> 01:27:30,719
Speaker 15: And I'm also going to say I'm glad I'm talking

1802
01:27:30,760 --> 01:27:34,160
Speaker 15: about this now the Bears and the Packers aren't playing anymore,

1803
01:27:34,240 --> 01:27:36,200
Speaker 15: because I could see a little bet between you and

1804
01:27:36,280 --> 01:27:38,120
Speaker 15: Nikola getting the Snippy Award.

1805
01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:41,559
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's our bet next year who somebody gets

1806
01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:42,840
Speaker 1: the somebody gets the snip.

1807
01:27:44,400 --> 01:27:45,439
Speaker 7: Hey, we'll take your you.

1808
01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:47,760
Speaker 15: But you know the best of all this is that

1809
01:27:47,840 --> 01:27:49,600
Speaker 15: this is right here in our city, and this is

1810
01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:52,759
Speaker 15: helping out, Like I said, not only the citizens Chicago,

1811
01:27:52,880 --> 01:27:56,120
Speaker 15: but all the shelters throughout the area. And it's just

1812
01:27:56,240 --> 01:27:58,600
Speaker 15: it's a wonderful thing that we're able to make a

1813
01:27:58,640 --> 01:28:02,400
Speaker 15: difference because of everybody that helps out by their donations.

1814
01:28:02,400 --> 01:28:05,160
Speaker 15: Because we don't receive any money from the federal government,

1815
01:28:05,240 --> 01:28:09,160
Speaker 15: state or local. It's all from donations from listeners like yours.

1816
01:28:09,439 --> 01:28:13,040
Speaker 15: So that being said, let's talk about adoptions. We got

1817
01:28:13,040 --> 01:28:16,400
Speaker 15: a wonderful adoption event coming up on Saturday the thirty first.

1818
01:28:16,600 --> 01:28:20,200
Speaker 15: We're going to be at Roorman Schomberg, Ford. We're bringing

1819
01:28:20,240 --> 01:28:23,160
Speaker 15: an F one fifty full of dogs and puppies. We're

1820
01:28:23,160 --> 01:28:25,800
Speaker 15: going to be there from noon to three and for

1821
01:28:25,840 --> 01:28:29,040
Speaker 15: people who aren't familiar, they're located at eight fifteen East

1822
01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:32,519
Speaker 15: Golf Road in Schomberg. I can't think of a better

1823
01:28:32,560 --> 01:28:35,360
Speaker 15: way to find your buddy to ride Shotgune than at

1824
01:28:35,760 --> 01:28:36,479
Speaker 15: a cood event.

1825
01:28:36,840 --> 01:28:38,920
Speaker 1: Well, you know what, we'll get people out there. Bob

1826
01:28:39,000 --> 01:28:41,600
Speaker 1: Orman does a good job with the pets. Also, I

1827
01:28:41,600 --> 01:28:43,080
Speaker 1: don't know if you know about this, Mark, but at

1828
01:28:43,120 --> 01:28:46,880
Speaker 1: the Chicago Auto Show, Subaru has a booth and I

1829
01:28:46,880 --> 01:28:49,360
Speaker 1: don't know if they work with the Anti Cruelty Society

1830
01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:51,160
Speaker 1: or who they work with. But you can go to

1831
01:28:51,200 --> 01:28:54,320
Speaker 1: the Subaru booth at the Chicago Auto Show and they

1832
01:28:54,320 --> 01:28:56,320
Speaker 1: have pets running around there and you can adopt the

1833
01:28:56,400 --> 01:28:57,960
Speaker 1: dog at the Subaru boo.

1834
01:28:58,160 --> 01:29:00,519
Speaker 3: Oh cool. Yeah, yeah, you know.

1835
01:29:00,560 --> 01:29:03,160
Speaker 15: They do a lot for shelters all across the nation.

1836
01:29:03,240 --> 01:29:04,640
Speaker 15: I got to give them a shout out. I mean,

1837
01:29:04,680 --> 01:29:06,800
Speaker 15: not just for what they do, they also take a

1838
01:29:06,840 --> 01:29:09,160
Speaker 15: portion of all their proceeds and give back. It's a

1839
01:29:09,240 --> 01:29:13,080
Speaker 15: great organization and you know, good round of applause for them.

1840
01:29:13,320 --> 01:29:15,519
Speaker 1: Pas Chicago dot org is where you'll find all the

Speaker 1: work that gets done. Mark Olga update real quick. You're

1842
01:29:18,120 --> 01:29:19,040
Speaker 1: sure you don't want to have her?

1843
01:29:21,120 --> 01:29:24,880
Speaker 15: I said a snippy award. That's a snappy award. Yeah yeah,

1844
01:29:25,160 --> 01:29:27,040
Speaker 15: I'm going to hand that over to the next still line.

1845
01:29:27,160 --> 01:29:29,160
Speaker 1: She only bet me twice last week. We're getting there,

1846
01:29:29,200 --> 01:29:29,840
Speaker 1: We're getting there.

1847
01:29:30,520 --> 01:29:32,280
Speaker 15: You're moving along. I'm going to get you some oysterre

1848
01:29:32,320 --> 01:29:33,040
Speaker 15: shocking gloves.

1849
01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:33,760
Speaker 3: Appreciate it.

1850
01:29:34,640 --> 01:29:36,519
Speaker 1: Appreciate what you do for the homeless pets and the

1851
01:29:36,520 --> 01:29:40,240
Speaker 1: pet population here in the Chicago Mark Luclas pause pause,

1852
01:29:40,280 --> 01:29:43,439
Speaker 1: pets are worth saving in Chicago. Paus Chicago dot Org.

1853
01:29:43,520 --> 01:29:45,840
Speaker 1: It's our friend Jonathan Honig from Capitalist Pig Boy. I

1854
01:29:45,880 --> 01:29:47,880
Speaker 1: tell you I'm watching the market. It's down a little

1855
01:29:47,880 --> 01:29:50,120
Speaker 1: bit right now, Nick, But we have good news. Tim

1856
01:29:50,160 --> 01:29:52,920
Speaker 1: Wallas just announced that he's never running for office again. Boom,

1857
01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:55,800
Speaker 1: that's a good one. Don Lemon is in jail. Don

1858
01:29:55,840 --> 01:29:58,600
Speaker 1: Lemon's in jail. He's already got a boyfriend there, so

1859
01:29:58,680 --> 01:30:01,519
Speaker 1: that's good news. James carr Vella's laughing at the fact

1860
01:30:01,920 --> 01:30:04,519
Speaker 1: that Kamala Harris may run for president again and the

1861
01:30:04,560 --> 01:30:08,080
Speaker 1: Packers aren't in the playoffs. It's such a good weekend. Well,

1862
01:30:08,120 --> 01:30:10,479
Speaker 1: it's still not helping the markets out, Johnathan. Good morning,

1863
01:30:10,479 --> 01:30:12,200
Speaker 1: Palm great booth here.

1864
01:30:12,240 --> 01:30:12,360
Speaker 4: Ray.

1865
01:30:12,479 --> 01:30:12,679
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1866
01:30:12,760 --> 01:30:14,880
Speaker 13: Look, we're all dreaming of a nice sunny day out

1867
01:30:14,880 --> 01:30:17,200
Speaker 13: on the lake with a boat right now. But the

1868
01:30:17,240 --> 01:30:20,320
Speaker 13: market's got a few other things on its mind, mostly

1869
01:30:20,479 --> 01:30:22,240
Speaker 13: AI and software stocks.

1870
01:30:22,240 --> 01:30:22,400
Speaker 6: Here.

1871
01:30:22,439 --> 01:30:25,799
Speaker 13: What really hurt the market yesterday was this dramatic plunge

1872
01:30:25,800 --> 01:30:29,320
Speaker 13: in shares of Microsoft. Microsoft was down by about ten percent.

1873
01:30:29,439 --> 01:30:33,200
Speaker 13: That's its biggest decline since March of twenty twenty. So

1874
01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:37,360
Speaker 13: we're seeing a lot of these software technology starks stocks

1875
01:30:37,560 --> 01:30:40,360
Speaker 13: start to slow. Many of them, of course, had led

1876
01:30:40,360 --> 01:30:43,080
Speaker 13: the market higher, But it's been all about earnings. And

1877
01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:45,800
Speaker 13: we did get some good news from Apple after the bell.

1878
01:30:45,920 --> 01:30:49,240
Speaker 13: Apple and Is that topped their first one quarter earnings estimates,

1879
01:30:49,600 --> 01:30:53,559
Speaker 13: record breaking iPhone sales. The stock is flat this morning,

1880
01:30:53,600 --> 01:30:55,639
Speaker 13: but you know, Ray, it's all about the bottom line,

1881
01:30:55,680 --> 01:30:59,160
Speaker 13: and companies that are beating or exceeding expectations are getting rewarded.

1882
01:30:59,439 --> 01:31:02,400
Speaker 13: Those that may feel like Microsoft are getting punished fast.

1883
01:31:02,479 --> 01:31:05,519
Speaker 1: Remember when Apple just had that big drop, precipitous drop.

1884
01:31:05,560 --> 01:31:08,000
Speaker 1: It was COVID and Apple went down to I want

1885
01:31:08,040 --> 01:31:10,519
Speaker 1: to say, it was like one hundred and I know

1886
01:31:10,600 --> 01:31:12,720
Speaker 1: I bought in at one hundred and twenty dollars and

1887
01:31:13,880 --> 01:31:16,760
Speaker 1: boy o, boy, I'm doing okay on that one. Yeah

1888
01:31:16,800 --> 01:31:20,400
Speaker 1: I watched it, you know, and yeah, please please no,

1889
01:31:20,560 --> 01:31:22,599
Speaker 1: I'm just saying I watched that one daily and it

1890
01:31:22,640 --> 01:31:24,479
Speaker 1: makes me smile. Other days it doesn't. But I look

1891
01:31:24,520 --> 01:31:26,880
Speaker 1: at this Microsoft thing. Maybe I should do the update

1892
01:31:26,920 --> 01:31:29,360
Speaker 1: on my computer that I keep failing to do because

1893
01:31:29,400 --> 01:31:31,720
Speaker 1: I know that that was not good news yesterday. But

1894
01:31:31,920 --> 01:31:34,439
Speaker 1: where does this all lie with AI? Because these are

1895
01:31:34,439 --> 01:31:38,160
Speaker 1: the companies that are promoting AI. Was AI overinflated at

1896
01:31:38,160 --> 01:31:39,800
Speaker 1: the beginning or at the end of last year and

1897
01:31:39,840 --> 01:31:41,920
Speaker 1: coming into this year, why wasn't.

1898
01:31:41,720 --> 01:31:43,680
Speaker 13: It dethic got the IT ray. I mean, what you're

1899
01:31:43,680 --> 01:31:47,000
Speaker 13: seeing is companies now have to demonstrate how AI is

1900
01:31:47,040 --> 01:31:50,479
Speaker 13: going to be a functional part of their business moving forward,

1901
01:31:50,720 --> 01:31:53,840
Speaker 13: and you're seeing many in fact retool their entire operations

1902
01:31:54,120 --> 01:31:56,479
Speaker 13: all together. Tesla made a pretty, I don't want to

1903
01:31:56,479 --> 01:32:00,599
Speaker 13: say shocking announcement, but basically Tesla yesterday saying, look, we're

1904
01:32:00,640 --> 01:32:03,720
Speaker 13: no longer a car company. Two of its cars, the

1905
01:32:03,760 --> 01:32:08,280
Speaker 13: Model S and X, are being retired, and they're using

1906
01:32:08,360 --> 01:32:12,000
Speaker 13: that those workshops are using the factory space to now

1907
01:32:12,040 --> 01:32:16,880
Speaker 13: get into the cyber cab robotaxi and they're optimist robots.

1908
01:32:17,240 --> 01:32:20,000
Speaker 13: So Tesla, you know, not unlike Rey I think Amazon

1909
01:32:20,040 --> 01:32:23,040
Speaker 13: did early pretty early on in It's Enterprise and It's Life,

1910
01:32:23,040 --> 01:32:26,759
Speaker 13: you know, completely rechanging its entire business model, and Tesla

1911
01:32:26,760 --> 01:32:29,320
Speaker 13: will be a robotics company basically from now on.

1912
01:32:29,479 --> 01:32:31,719
Speaker 3: So is the Tesla car going away?

1913
01:32:32,720 --> 01:32:37,120
Speaker 13: The Model S and the Model X models are going away.

1914
01:32:37,280 --> 01:32:40,639
Speaker 13: The newer models they'll continue to make. But basically Elon

1915
01:32:40,720 --> 01:32:44,080
Speaker 13: Musk putting major effort and billions and billions, hundreds of

1916
01:32:44,120 --> 01:32:48,439
Speaker 13: billions and dollars towards its cyber cab robotaxis. Those are

1917
01:32:48,439 --> 01:32:52,400
Speaker 13: those taxis with no driver altogether. And the I think

1918
01:32:52,479 --> 01:32:57,439
Speaker 13: somewhat creep but very exciting optimist robots. Those are those

1919
01:32:57,479 --> 01:33:00,960
Speaker 13: completely AI driven robots that could do anything from run

1920
01:33:00,960 --> 01:33:02,640
Speaker 13: your errands for you to eat.

1921
01:33:02,800 --> 01:33:05,040
Speaker 3: That's what we need, That's what we need future.

1922
01:33:05,200 --> 01:33:07,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, not only not only does half my

1923
01:33:07,840 --> 01:33:09,680
Speaker 1: family want to kill me, but now a robot's going

1924
01:33:09,720 --> 01:33:12,559
Speaker 1: to be coming after me. Great, great news, you know,

1925
01:33:12,320 --> 01:33:15,439
Speaker 1: I know that yesterday and and nobody really seems to

1926
01:33:15,479 --> 01:33:18,360
Speaker 1: be talking about the carnage that's going on in Iran.

1927
01:33:18,560 --> 01:33:21,960
Speaker 1: And and I know it's a tricky situation too, when

1928
01:33:22,000 --> 01:33:24,559
Speaker 1: you have a theocracy like that and a supreme leader

1929
01:33:24,600 --> 01:33:27,280
Speaker 1: and then you've got uh, you know, the the the

1930
01:33:27,439 --> 01:33:31,040
Speaker 1: president of Iran. That's a sticky, sticky situation. But the

1931
01:33:31,520 --> 01:33:34,000
Speaker 1: amount of people that have risen up to protest and

1932
01:33:34,040 --> 01:33:37,040
Speaker 1: that have been killed. Take note, America, We're not doing

1933
01:33:37,080 --> 01:33:40,640
Speaker 1: so bad here. But now Trump said that something's going on.

1934
01:33:40,680 --> 01:33:43,400
Speaker 1: There's an armada. It's it's on its way to Iran.

1935
01:33:43,479 --> 01:33:46,160
Speaker 1: We don't know what that means. Hold on for the weekend.

1936
01:33:46,160 --> 01:33:48,479
Speaker 1: But that did drive oil up yesterday, didn't it.

1937
01:33:48,920 --> 01:33:50,880
Speaker 13: Yeah, indeed, Ray, I mean, it's something to keep in mind.

1938
01:33:51,000 --> 01:33:54,519
Speaker 13: I made all the kind of economic turmoil and questions

1939
01:33:54,560 --> 01:33:58,600
Speaker 13: about sticky inflation and government spending here at home, the

1940
01:33:58,720 --> 01:34:02,880
Speaker 13: geopolitical situation really has not gotten much easier. And as

1941
01:34:02,920 --> 01:34:05,599
Speaker 13: you said, the US is assembling, and this is President

1942
01:34:05,600 --> 01:34:09,799
Speaker 13: Trump's description a massive armada in the Middle East, basically

1943
01:34:10,400 --> 01:34:13,920
Speaker 13: sending a signal to Iran and basically warning Iran that

1944
01:34:14,000 --> 01:34:16,800
Speaker 13: had better shape up when it comes to making a

1945
01:34:16,840 --> 01:34:19,439
Speaker 13: deal on its nuclear program. So we could see oil

1946
01:34:19,479 --> 01:34:22,320
Speaker 13: prices move higher, but already nothing is going to top

1947
01:34:22,439 --> 01:34:25,080
Speaker 13: gold and silver this year. I mean both down a

1948
01:34:25,120 --> 01:34:27,840
Speaker 13: little bit this morning. But these precious metals have gone

1949
01:34:28,040 --> 01:34:31,439
Speaker 13: absolutely parabolic in recent days. Some of it has to

1950
01:34:31,439 --> 01:34:33,240
Speaker 13: do with dollar weekness, some of that has to do with,

1951
01:34:33,479 --> 01:34:35,880
Speaker 13: as we said, unrest about the Middle East and maybe

1952
01:34:36,000 --> 01:34:39,400
Speaker 13: unrest about the economy, but all time highs just in

1953
01:34:39,439 --> 01:34:43,200
Speaker 13: the last forty eight hours for gold, silver, copper as well.

1954
01:34:43,560 --> 01:34:43,720
Speaker 6: Well.

1955
01:34:43,720 --> 01:34:45,519
Speaker 1: I tell you, Nick, this might be a weekend to

1956
01:34:45,520 --> 01:34:50,559
Speaker 1: go steal some wire a little side hustle, all right,

1957
01:34:51,000 --> 01:34:53,400
Speaker 1: Jonathan honeg our friend from a capitalist pig. He's going

1958
01:34:53,439 --> 01:34:54,960
Speaker 1: to be on with Stuart Parney here into a couple

1959
01:34:54,960 --> 01:34:56,720
Speaker 1: of minutes on Fox. I want to go back to

1960
01:34:56,760 --> 01:34:59,880
Speaker 1: oil for a second. I noticed that Tommy from Mtex

1961
01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:04,040
Speaker 1: on the show The Landman was fired from that company.

1962
01:35:04,080 --> 01:35:06,479
Speaker 1: Do you think that will drive oil prices higher or lower?

1963
01:35:08,080 --> 01:35:10,400
Speaker 13: That's going to Ray. I don't really have.

1964
01:35:10,360 --> 01:35:12,439
Speaker 1: A feeling I'm an oil man now because I watch

1965
01:35:12,520 --> 01:35:12,960
Speaker 1: that show.

1966
01:35:13,160 --> 01:35:14,080
Speaker 3: That's it.

1967
01:35:14,240 --> 01:35:17,200
Speaker 1: Just so you know, consumer confidence, we talk about this

1968
01:35:17,280 --> 01:35:19,720
Speaker 1: all the time, and again, you know we just we're

1969
01:35:19,720 --> 01:35:21,559
Speaker 1: talking with a friend of ours who's running for governor

1970
01:35:21,600 --> 01:35:24,680
Speaker 1: and talk about polls, how they can be manipulated by

1971
01:35:24,680 --> 01:35:29,679
Speaker 1: how a question is asked. The consumers in America seem

1972
01:35:29,720 --> 01:35:31,639
Speaker 1: to think that the economy is not getting any better.

1973
01:35:32,680 --> 01:35:34,360
Speaker 1: And I think that this is the year that will

1974
01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:35,960
Speaker 1: tell the tail of the tape as to whether it

1975
01:35:36,000 --> 01:35:38,160
Speaker 1: does or not, given some of the provisions in the

1976
01:35:38,160 --> 01:35:40,920
Speaker 1: Big Beautiful Bill. But right now it's low and that's

1977
01:35:40,960 --> 01:35:42,560
Speaker 1: a problem coming up to the midterms.

1978
01:35:42,960 --> 01:35:45,720
Speaker 13: Well, I mean a little bit of an interesting economy, Ray,

1979
01:35:45,720 --> 01:35:47,919
Speaker 13: I mean, look, the market is just a couple percentage

1980
01:35:47,960 --> 01:35:51,400
Speaker 13: points off of its all time high. Inflation we know

1981
01:35:51,640 --> 01:35:54,760
Speaker 13: has come way down since the Byen era. No it's

1982
01:35:54,760 --> 01:35:57,599
Speaker 13: not at two percent, but it's barely at three percent.

1983
01:35:58,160 --> 01:36:01,799
Speaker 13: Yet consumer confidence, as you said, is at its lowest

1984
01:36:01,840 --> 01:36:05,000
Speaker 13: level in more than a decade. In fact, consumer confidence

1985
01:36:05,200 --> 01:36:08,720
Speaker 13: now raise lower than it was during the pandemic. So

1986
01:36:08,800 --> 01:36:12,479
Speaker 13: something's going on with the everyday Americans, whether so you know,

1987
01:36:12,520 --> 01:36:16,919
Speaker 13: whether it's perhaps uncertainty about AI or the stickiness of inflation.

1988
01:36:17,080 --> 01:36:20,880
Speaker 13: We've often lamented that the purchases you remember as being say,

1989
01:36:20,960 --> 01:36:23,840
Speaker 13: thirteen ninety nine, all seemed to be eighteen ninety nine now.

1990
01:36:23,920 --> 01:36:27,320
Speaker 13: But everyday Americans seem to be very apprehensive about the

1991
01:36:27,320 --> 01:36:30,799
Speaker 13: economy moving forward. With that consumer confidence number the lowest

1992
01:36:30,800 --> 01:36:33,320
Speaker 13: since twenty fourteen.

1993
01:36:33,080 --> 01:36:36,960
Speaker 1: When companies like Amazon talk about sixteen thousand people being

1994
01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:39,800
Speaker 1: cut right, these are the retailers that a few years

1995
01:36:39,800 --> 01:36:44,200
Speaker 1: ago we're hiring like crazy. What does that signal to America?

1996
01:36:44,240 --> 01:36:45,880
Speaker 1: Because I mean, I think going forward, this is the

1997
01:36:45,920 --> 01:36:47,519
Speaker 1: way people are going to shop. I don't like it.

1998
01:36:47,720 --> 01:36:51,320
Speaker 1: I'd rather go to a small, family owned store today.

1999
01:36:51,320 --> 01:36:53,560
Speaker 1: But some of them are closed because they want to

2000
01:36:53,600 --> 01:36:57,200
Speaker 1: defund ice. But what do you think this means for

2001
01:36:57,320 --> 01:37:01,400
Speaker 1: the work force when it comes to these big, you know,

2002
01:37:01,840 --> 01:37:05,160
Speaker 1: fulfillment center companies where you shop online and they drop

2003
01:37:05,160 --> 01:37:06,559
Speaker 1: it off at your house. In the middle of the

2004
01:37:06,600 --> 01:37:09,080
Speaker 1: night and the porch pirates have it stolen by six.

2005
01:37:10,439 --> 01:37:14,280
Speaker 13: Ray and look in places that automation can be integrated,

2006
01:37:14,360 --> 01:37:17,680
Speaker 13: in places that AI can be integrated. This will be

2007
01:37:17,720 --> 01:37:20,360
Speaker 13: the year that you start to see companies, big ants,

2008
01:37:20,600 --> 01:37:23,599
Speaker 13: what particular Big of course they've got the capital doing that.

2009
01:37:23,720 --> 01:37:28,639
Speaker 13: And this announcement from Amazon cutting sixteen thousand workers at

2010
01:37:28,640 --> 01:37:32,720
Speaker 13: the same time doing what investing in AI artificial intelligence.

2011
01:37:32,760 --> 01:37:34,960
Speaker 13: So you know, it's it's been hot in the markets

2012
01:37:34,960 --> 01:37:36,559
Speaker 13: for years now. Ray and I think this is going

2013
01:37:36,640 --> 01:37:39,240
Speaker 13: to be the year that we really see it being

2014
01:37:39,240 --> 01:37:44,320
Speaker 13: integrated into companies big and small. Another company, Pinterest cutting

2015
01:37:44,360 --> 01:37:48,320
Speaker 13: fifteen percent of its workforce. That's seven hundred jobs. Not

2016
01:37:48,360 --> 01:37:49,280
Speaker 13: necessarily due.

2017
01:37:49,120 --> 01:37:51,519
Speaker 1: To AI, but no, it's because that lets because that

2018
01:37:51,560 --> 01:37:52,880
Speaker 1: platform sucks.

2019
01:37:53,880 --> 01:37:56,960
Speaker 13: Well. You know, they say AI is a part of it,

2020
01:37:57,120 --> 01:38:00,080
Speaker 13: and we're seeing more and more, you know, mass layoffs

2021
01:38:00,240 --> 01:38:02,000
Speaker 13: with AI part of it too. All we need me

2022
01:38:02,520 --> 01:38:05,200
Speaker 13: now is the freedom for the economy to create new

2023
01:38:05,280 --> 01:38:08,200
Speaker 13: jobs and in the free economy without government on your neck.

2024
01:38:08,400 --> 01:38:09,479
Speaker 13: That happens all the time.

2025
01:38:09,560 --> 01:38:11,920

2040
01:38:41,600 --> 01:38:45,160
Speaker 1: remember what a changeable was either, and this would have been,

2041
01:38:45,320 --> 01:38:50,519
Speaker 1: you know, when I was either in high school, college, whatever,

2042
01:38:51,000 --> 01:38:53,599
Speaker 1: and I didn't have kids, so I wasn't at Mickey

2043
01:38:53,640 --> 01:38:56,320
Speaker 1: Easy and we didn't go to McDonald's very often with

2044
01:38:56,400 --> 01:39:01,040
Speaker 1: our kids. But it's the memory lane. Make changeables are

2045
01:39:01,080 --> 01:39:02,559
Speaker 1: back in the happy meal. So if you want to

2046
01:39:02,560 --> 01:39:04,519
Speaker 1: take the kids to a Mickey D's and get them fat,

2047

Speaker 1: is for everything to go back to twenty sixteen twenty sixteen.
