I don't 240 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: know if that's a knee jerk reaction or there's something 241 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: more to it. Can you can you take me inside it? 242 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 11: Well, we've always had I'm not always having Recently we've 243 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 11: had some some different rumblings that there was back and 244 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 11: forth and some division going on between Christy Nome and 245 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 11: Tom Homan about the mission of Ice and and what 246 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 11: they should be willing to do and what they where 247 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 11: where they should be focusing and and you know, now 248 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,679 Speaker 11: you see this situation where Tom Homan is being sent 249 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 11: to Minnesota to try and you know, kind of rain 250 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 11: in the area and bring some peace and stability, you 251 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 11: know during the wild will. Things are extremely hot right 252 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 11: now there, despite it being in the negative degree temperatures. 253 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: Now I know that, I know, But is that is 254 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: that basically optics because whenever somebody talks about Tom Holman, 255 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: and I'm a fan of the guy, don't get me wrong, 256 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: but whenever somebody talks about him, they're like, yeah, but 257 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: he worked with Obama, he worked with five other presidents. 258 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 1: So does that give them some wiggling room to say, hey, 259 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: this is a bipartisan guy. Maybe this will help, you know, 260 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,319 Speaker 1: this area that seems to be so far to the 261 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: left right now that they can't they can't, you know, 262 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,439 Speaker 1: basically straighten themselves out because they don't want Trump there. 263 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: And I don't know if Tom Homan being there's going 264 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: to help either. 265 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 11: Well I think I think I think they use that 266 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 11: to show his qualifications, that that he's somebody who has 267 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 11: been who has worked in the industry or worked within 268 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 11: you know, the law enforcement under multiple administrations that could 269 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 11: carry out the mission no matter who the president is. 270 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 11: It's kind of like, you know, when people talk about 271 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 11: serving under different presidents when they're in the military. You 272 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,959 Speaker 11: saw Pete exits that use it during his confirmation hearing 273 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 11: where he said why enlisted to join the military when 274 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 11: Barack Obama was president. 275 00:12:58,280 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 2: That's not a. 276 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 11: Republican So yeah, yeah, there's definitely many ways to look 277 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,439 Speaker 11: at that. But yeah, look, the reality is that there 278 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 11: has been a growing scrutiny about how this situation and 279 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 11: how Minnesota is being handled by the Department of Homeland Security, 280 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 11: and of course a lot of that is going to 281 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 11: fall on Christy No now whether or not there's enough 282 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 11: calls for her to step aside. You know, most Republicans 283 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 11: were talking to will put that on the president, say 284 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 11: that's up to the president to decide if he wants 285 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 11: to move forward with somebody else. But if the President 286 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 11: has confidence in her, then we're going to support her. 287 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 11: But you do have two Republican Senators Murkowski and Tillis 288 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 11: wish By note not exactly Trump loyalists who have you know, 289 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 11: come out and said that they want Christy known to 290 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 11: be replaced and be fired. Now, look, we should keep 291 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 11: mine too. There have been more loyal Trump supporters in 292 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 11: the Senate who have started to say, yeah, you know this, 293 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 11: this wasn't exactly a good look. And this was not 294 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 11: that there needs to be some changes without Homeland Operate 295 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 11: because you know, we can't have a repeat of what 296 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 11: happened with the Alex Predi situation. 297 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't, I don't, you know, And let's talk 298 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: about the optics because if we take this guy, this 299 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: Alex pretty that everybody's talking about, right, he's a nurse 300 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: and my god, he's one of the best guys ever, 301 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: a friend of friend that had no friends. But now 302 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: we find out that he was radicalized. He quit his gig, 303 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: his parents were concerned about him. He was seen last 304 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 1: week kicking the crap out of a car, a federal car, 305 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: fighting with federal agents, gun strapped to his side, which, hey, man, 306 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: I'm a two way guy. You can carry your gun 307 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 1: if you want, but I don't know why you bring that, 308 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: you know, within an airshot of federal authorities. 309 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 2: But if you go back to this Alex guy. 310 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: If somebody would have arrested him and we hadn't had 311 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: these sanctuary state policies, maybe this guy would have had 312 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: some kind of repercussions. Maybe he would have had a 313 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 1: couple of days to sit in the can and go 314 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: you know what, maybe going to Minnesota's not such a 315 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 1: great idea, but what you know, so, I don't know 316 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: how Christy Noman can prevent people from getting in the 317 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: way of men and women who are carrying out there 318 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: institutional authority as ice agents to do their job. I'm 319 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 1: not saying that I want to see people killed. Don't 320 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: get me wrong. I feel bad when this happens, whether 321 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: you're my adversary or not. But you know, somewhere we 322 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: also have to have some self responsibility. Is there more 323 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: to this though, than these two incidents. I know you 324 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 1: mentioned Tom Holman and Christie not seeing eye to eye, 325 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: but I mean, my god, she was Miss snow Queen 326 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety in South Dakota. I would think that 327 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: herr qualifications are there. 328 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 11: Yeah, And of course you know that I'm seeing plenty 329 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 11: of dog memes online too, which which you know should 330 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 11: in factor into this either. But that's what happens whenever 331 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 11: Christynome is under the microscope or anything. Yeah. So there's 332 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 11: a lot of ways you can look at what happened there. 333 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 6: Yeah. 334 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 11: I mean, there's going to be a new scrutiny of 335 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 11: Alex Pretty and why he was there in the first place. 336 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 11: After this new video came out and no doubt about it. 337 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: Well, you know the thing is, if you watch this 338 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: video and now and now finally, you know regular media. 339 00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: We talk about mainstream media.

Very honestly, I think we all need 536 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: to sit back and look at taking a social media ban, 537 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 1: maybe for thirty days, see how our society reacts.

Honestly, 544 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 1: just sit and think, you know, would it be this 545 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: bad if we had social media back in World War Two? 546 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 2: And Justin you bring up a great point. 547 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:14,360 Speaker 1: And I do say this a lot to my mom, 548 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 1: who sometimes thinks the world has just gone off the 549 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 1: deep end. Is we have such ability now to have 550 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 1: such quick reaction to things that are going on, you know, 551 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: in shame on the social media. You know, you and 552 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: I could have got banned back in COVID if we 553 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,159 Speaker 1: said vaccines and vaccinations didn't work right, they would ban you. 554 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 1: But now you can see people getting shot on social media. 555 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 1: It takes some time to get those images taken down. 556 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: I think they're doing a better job of kind of 557 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 1: regulating what we can see. But justin you bring up 558 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 1: an absolutely a terrific point.

There's a lot 561 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 1: of people talking about it right now. TikTok has already 562 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 1: settled this lawsuit out of court. I believe that meta, 563 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: which is Facebook and Instagram, the Graham will take and 564 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 1: be in court for this lawsuit with this twenty year old. Now, 565 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 1: we do a lot of social media here and how 566 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 1: many times Nick do I say, no, I'm not going 567 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 1: to do that, And what do I always say to Stephanie. 568 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 2: Come on, you need to get your pixes taken with 569 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 2: his pizza.

But still, you know, I think even 574 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 1: we take it way too far. Some of the stop 575 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 1: is just it's mindless and it's hits and clicks, and 576 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 1: to be very honest, people make money off it.

But a couple things won. I thought 604 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 1: that Mitch Soros over at the Score did a wonderful 605 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 1: job with their sendoff to Terry Bores the other day, 606 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 1: and for a lot of fans that were wondering about 607 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: any kind of a funeral or anything like that. 608 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:07,919 Speaker 2: Memorial. 609 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,239 Speaker 1: Family's going to keep it small. Family's going to keep 610 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: it small. But Mitch Sworros did a nice job over there. 611 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 1: I didn't know that he was related to George and Alex, 612 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 1: but I guess he is. But WGN Radio is there's 613 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 1: a deadline. The Elk Grove Village extends the deadline for 614 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 1: some work being done at the transmitter site.

But I guess there's up 617 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:35,679 Speaker 1: in the air on what they want to do with 618 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 1: the property that has been sold. Either it's going to 619 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: be a cemetery or a large Dell web which fits 620 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: for that audience.

I don't talk about it 658 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: a lot, but at any one point in my life 659 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 1: with my three kids, one of them's mad at me 660 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: right for you know, something I did in the past 661 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: I didn't do enough here, you know. But it's amazing 662 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 1: because I talked to my friends and talk to them 663 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: about their kids, and it seems like there's families that 664 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 1: are always at odds with each other, and what is 665 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 1: that about. I think a lot of it has to 666 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 1: do with politics. I know my middle child, they're always 667 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 1: the problems, right. You know, she's a wonderful young lady. 668 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:54,239 Speaker 1: But we don't see things eye to eye when it 669 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: comes to the world, and we don't have to. She 670 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,239 Speaker 1: can have her own opinion. But what it should do 671 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: is it should you You should be adult enough that 672 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 1: if you have a problem, you can work that out 673 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 1: in a reasonable fashion instead of saying that, you know what, 674 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: I just think I'm gonna shut dad off for a 675 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. 676 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 2: Here. 677 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 1: You don't shut humans out of your life like you 678 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: do with social media. But I think social media leads 679 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: to that problem because we can unfriend somebody, we can 680 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 1: shadow ban somebody, we can go somebody, and I think 681 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 1: some of the learned behaviors on social media have found 682 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 1: a trickle down effect into our. 683 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 2: Society, sure into real life. 684 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I have a rocky in Wheatfield, Indiana. Good morning, guys, 685 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 1: decided I was spending too much time on social media, 686 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: so I cut out everything but Facebook, and I'm thinking 687 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 1: about opting out of that and then he says, oop's 688 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: got a message. I gotta go goodbye. 689 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 2: That's it.

They're 694 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 2: connected to. 695 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 8: Ra and yet guns yet yeah ds arms here in 696 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 8: Lake Barrington. 697 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 10: I'll say this. The one thing I do mainly use 698 00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 10: social media for is communicating with my family abroad. It's 699 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 10: a great way. Like my sisters both live in the UK, 700 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 10: so that's the best way for me to talk about it. 701 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 10: I don't have to spend so it's like, just just 702 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 10: put some limitations on yourself, put limitations on your kids. 703 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 10: Be smart about it. Give them a tin can. 704 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 2: I used it for communicating with abroad and it cost 705 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 2: me a house. 706 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 10: Her name was Chartruse. 707 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 2: Wow three one two nine hundred. 708 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 8: We've got this thing now where we've got it set 709 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 8: up and the kids can FaceTime me from their tablets. 710 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 8: But again it's only certain people that they can connect with. 711 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's kind of cool. Henry just calls 712 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 2: me randomly. 713 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 1: I did, well, that's that's your new world, and that's 714 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: you know, that's and in that instance, being connected is 715 00:32:58,880 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: it works. 716 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 2: I was up north. 717 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: I was out on a stomobile ride over the Christmas 718 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 1: break with my friends Joel and his wife Susie, and 719 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:11,280 Speaker 1: we'd stopped just to kind of regather ourselves, make sure 720 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 1: everything and everything everyone's doing all right.

It just doesn't make 1298 01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:08,880 Speaker 1: any sense to me. Lots being made about this economy. 1299 01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:12,080 Speaker 1: It's tax season.

Probably looking at Tepy, 1354 01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:26,440 Speaker 1: you're somewhere in the mid teens. 1355 01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:30,640 Speaker 6: Wait, so will I be able to go swimming in 1356 01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:32,080 Speaker 6: Lake Michigan or you. 1357 01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:34,600 Speaker 1: Can do whatever you want. Nobody's going to stop you. 1358 01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:36,400 Speaker 1: You know, it's funny you mentioned that. It's funny you 1359 01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:39,040 Speaker 1: mentioned that, Stephen, because last week we were supposed to 1360 01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:42,680 Speaker 1: do the polar plunge and the daytime high was only 1361 01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:44,520 Speaker 1: going to be eight degrees, so they canceled it. So 1362 01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:46,720 Speaker 1: now from now to the end of time, I'm just 1363 01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:49,160 Speaker 1: going to call it the not so polar Plunge, cuz 1364 01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:52,320 Speaker 1: you know, either you're jumping or you're not right. But 1365 01:02:52,320 --> 01:02:54,280 Speaker 1: they made the money for charity, and it's all good. 1366 01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:58,360 Speaker 1: What brings you to town, Well, I have a protesting. 1367 01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:01,760 Speaker 6: We have a kind of a fly reunion. As you know, 1368 01:03:01,560 --> 01:03:05,680 Speaker 6: I hail from the great City of Chicago, so it's 1369 01:03:05,680 --> 01:03:08,400 Speaker 6: always fun to come. So we're gonna be mostly, you know, 1370 01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:12,880 Speaker 6: staying inside and going to the great restaurants and trying 1371 01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:14,560 Speaker 6: to stay warm. But I may try to plunt. I 1372 01:03:14,680 --> 01:03:16,560 Speaker 6: might have tried to do that polar punt. But is 1373 01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:18,040 Speaker 6: the lake frozen over? 1374 01:03:18,680 --> 01:03:20,840 Speaker 1: She's got some ice on it. Yeah, she's got some 1375 01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:22,440 Speaker 1: ice on it. So you have to get out about 1376 01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:24,120 Speaker 1: half a mile or so, and then you get in it. 1377 01:03:24,120 --> 01:03:27,120 Speaker 1: Don't worry, you can still touch bottom there. It'll be fine. Hey, 1378 01:03:27,160 --> 01:03:29,440 Speaker 1: I want to ask you. You know, we're coming into 1379 01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:32,320 Speaker 1: tax season here. The Big Beautiful Bill has worked out 1380 01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:34,640 Speaker 1: some things. What do you think America sees buy and 1381 01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:37,960 Speaker 1: large kind of average it out for me? When Americans 1382 01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:39,800 Speaker 1: go to do their taxes this year, do they get 1383 01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:42,560 Speaker 1: a bigger refund than they did last year based on 1384 01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:46,400 Speaker 1: some of these things that Trump has built in to 1385 01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:48,880 Speaker 1: the Big Beautiful Bill, or does that take place next year? 1386 01:03:49,960 --> 01:03:52,400 Speaker 6: So that's a great question. First of all. I mean, 1387 01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:55,080 Speaker 6: the news just came out a day or two ago 1388 01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:58,840 Speaker 6: about the latest forecast for what the economy, how much 1389 01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:01,080 Speaker 6: it grew in the fourth order of last year, so 1390 01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:05,040 Speaker 6: ending on January first, in the number came in at 1391 01:04:05,040 --> 01:04:08,200 Speaker 6: five and a half percent, which is unbelievable. The economy 1392 01:04:08,200 --> 01:04:11,480 Speaker 6: has been an incredible boom. I don't get it. I 1393 01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:14,880 Speaker 6: was looking at the consumer confidence numbers. They are at 1394 01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:18,120 Speaker 6: like a ten year low, whereas the economy is an 1395 01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:21,560 Speaker 6: all time high. I'm just completely flummoxed by that. I 1396 01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,680 Speaker 6: don't understand. Now. Look, I do get it that people 1397 01:04:24,760 --> 01:04:26,640 Speaker 6: like my wife are angry about the price of beef, 1398 01:04:26,680 --> 01:04:29,400 Speaker 6: and I'm angry about the price of healthcare, which is 1399 01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:32,480 Speaker 6: going through the roof, et cetera. But you know, eighty 1400 01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:34,160 Speaker 6: I think I mentioned this on your show a couple 1401 01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:36,560 Speaker 6: of weeks ago. Eighty five percent of the increase in 1402 01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:39,880 Speaker 6: the prices that people are angry about happened under good 1403 01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:43,360 Speaker 6: old Joe Biden, not under Trump. So we do have 1404 01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:45,480 Speaker 6: a booming economy. It's going to be even stronger, I 1405 01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:49,120 Speaker 6: believe in the months ahead, precisely because of what you 1406 01:04:49,160 --> 01:04:52,720 Speaker 6: just said, Ray that when we passed that big beautiful 1407 01:04:52,720 --> 01:04:56,280 Speaker 6: bill back in July of last year, people would come 1408 01:04:56,360 --> 01:04:59,160 Speaker 6: up to me, you know, all the time, and it's hey, 1409 01:04:59,160 --> 01:05:00,600 Speaker 6: Steve Moore, I thought you that are going to get 1410 01:05:00,600 --> 01:05:03,840 Speaker 6: a tax cut, Well you get your tax cut this year, right, 1411 01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:06,320 Speaker 6: most people that some people got it last year, but 1412 01:05:06,360 --> 01:05:08,680 Speaker 6: most people will get it. We'll see when they get 1413 01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:13,080 Speaker 6: their paychecks starting this month, they'll see more money in 1414 01:05:13,120 --> 01:05:15,920 Speaker 6: your paycheck and less money with hell because of the 1415 01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:18,640 Speaker 6: Big Beautiful Bill. So, yes, you answer your question, It 1416 01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:22,400 Speaker 6: kicks in this year. Average worker is going to see 1417 01:05:22,440 --> 01:05:26,120 Speaker 6: about a fifteen hundred dollars reduction in their federal taxes. 1418 01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:29,600 Speaker 6: This year, so it's going to that will help further 1419 01:05:29,720 --> 01:05:30,920 Speaker 6: stimulate the economy. 1420 01:05:31,160 --> 01:05:33,400 Speaker 1: I came into a conversation with my mother. She was 1421 01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:36,400 Speaker 1: having a conversation with my sister. They were talking about Greenland, 1422 01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:39,280 Speaker 1: and I immediately shut the door because I told, did 1423 01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:39,720 Speaker 1: you call it. 1424 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:43,520 Speaker 6: Greenl It's Trump Land, and that's what they're talking about. 1425 01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:45,520 Speaker 1: And I opened the door and I heard these two 1426 01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:47,959 Speaker 1: talking about Greenland, and I automatically shut the door because 1427 01:05:47,960 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 1: I didn't want to come stupider. But you know, I said, Mom, 1428 01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:52,800 Speaker 1: I go, you know that this year you're not going 1429 01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:55,360 Speaker 1: to be taxed on your Social Security right and that 1430 01:05:55,520 --> 01:05:56,800 Speaker 1: is a huge win for you. 1431 01:05:57,520 --> 01:06:00,520 Speaker 6: And by the way, don't forget all so there's no 1432 01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:03,640 Speaker 6: tax on tips and overtime kicks in as well. 1433 01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:03,840 Speaker 2: Well. 1434 01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:06,280 Speaker 1: She quit her dancing gig last week after the fall. 1435 01:06:06,720 --> 01:06:09,800 Speaker 1: But you know, you talk about it, why do you 1436 01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:14,600 Speaker 1: think there's such a disparity in the growth of the 1437 01:06:14,600 --> 01:06:18,960 Speaker 1: economy and the consumer price the consumer confidence? Because I ask, 1438 01:06:19,040 --> 01:06:21,040 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the Dow futures right now, and I 1439 01:06:21,080 --> 01:06:23,400 Speaker 1: get that not everybody you know watches the market, but 1440 01:06:23,440 --> 01:06:24,760 Speaker 1: if you have a little money in a four to 1441 01:06:24,760 --> 01:06:27,440 Speaker 1: one k or a roth or you just pay attention casually, 1442 01:06:27,480 --> 01:06:31,120 Speaker 1: maybe you buy in. But it's at forty nine thousand 1443 01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:34,240 Speaker 1: and one sixty six right now, and that's down. I mean, 1444 01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:38,160 Speaker 1: the market's been outperforming. Things seem to be going okay. 1445 01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:40,840 Speaker 1: But I know you brought it up yourself. There still 1446 01:06:40,880 --> 01:06:43,439 Speaker 1: is an affordability issue. Do you think that plays into 1447 01:06:43,480 --> 01:06:48,240 Speaker 1: why that the consumer confidence is not very high. 1448 01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:51,360 Speaker 6: Well, there's two factors here. One is that, let's face it, 1449 01:06:51,400 --> 01:06:55,160 Speaker 6: we're incredibly polarized country right now. So you know, half 1450 01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:58,760 Speaker 6: of America's excuse me, half of Americans love Trump and 1451 01:06:58,800 --> 01:07:02,040 Speaker 6: half of them despise him. So even if Trump were 1452 01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:03,880 Speaker 6: to give us the Garden of Eden, you know, half 1453 01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:05,800 Speaker 6: the people would say, a flowers, they are horrible. I 1454 01:07:05,800 --> 01:07:07,400 Speaker 6: can't stand this guy, so I want. 1455 01:07:09,760 --> 01:07:09,960 Speaker 2: Right. 1456 01:07:10,480 --> 01:07:15,240 Speaker 6: So that's part of it. But then also I think 1457 01:07:15,280 --> 01:07:17,400 Speaker 6: part of it is people are just angry about how 1458 01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:20,440 Speaker 6: much prices rose over the last five years. Everybody is 1459 01:07:20,920 --> 01:07:23,320 Speaker 6: and they should be. And this is a result I 1460 01:07:23,360 --> 01:07:26,080 Speaker 6: want make to make sure people understand. To connect the 1461 01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:30,680 Speaker 6: dots here, it's because in Trump's last year and in 1462 01:07:30,800 --> 01:07:33,840 Speaker 6: Biden's four years, we spent five trillion dollars we don't have. 1463 01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:36,680 Speaker 6: It's that simple. And so how did we do that? 1464 01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:39,320 Speaker 6: How did we spend all that money? We printed it? 1465 01:07:39,440 --> 01:07:42,240 Speaker 6: We just printed money. Now what happens ray, if you 1466 01:07:42,280 --> 01:07:44,440 Speaker 6: just keep printing money and money and money, what happens 1467 01:07:44,480 --> 01:07:45,200 Speaker 6: to prices? 1468 01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:48,320 Speaker 2: Well, well, obviously they're going to go up. That's what 1469 01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:49,120 Speaker 2: makes inflation. 1470 01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:51,880 Speaker 6: You got it right, You got your an economics today. 1471 01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:54,960 Speaker 6: So but the politicians don't seem to understand that, she worded, 1472 01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:57,880 Speaker 6: even so many economists she worded, all that inflation comes from. 1473 01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:01,960 Speaker 6: You know, it's Milton Friedman a university who said inflations 1474 01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:05,320 Speaker 6: too many dollars chasing too few goods. So if you 1475 01:08:05,400 --> 01:08:07,920 Speaker 6: print more and more money like Zimbabwe. Did you know 1476 01:08:07,960 --> 01:08:10,280 Speaker 6: I got in my wallet one of these Zimbabwe one 1477 01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:13,280 Speaker 6: million dollar bills? You probably think I'm really rich, don't you? 1478 01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:15,840 Speaker 6: Worth about eighteen cents? 1479 01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:20,080 Speaker 1: I wouldn't go to Zimbabwe on a bet, Steven, Let 1480 01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:22,080 Speaker 1: me ask you the Millennia movies coming out this week. 1481 01:08:22,160 --> 01:08:23,560 Speaker 1: There's some clips and we're going to play some of 1482 01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:26,400 Speaker 1: them from Malania talking about you know, sometimes Donald listens 1483 01:08:26,439 --> 01:08:28,400 Speaker 1: to her, sometimes he doesn't. I'll tell you if that 1484 01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:30,040 Speaker 1: was my wife, I'd listen to her all the time. 1485 01:08:30,120 --> 01:08:35,320 Speaker 1: But you know, disregard to that right when you how 1486 01:08:35,360 --> 01:08:37,960 Speaker 1: would he react when you would say, mister President, you 1487 01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:40,240 Speaker 1: know what's going on here. You're a smart guy. You 1488 01:08:40,400 --> 01:08:42,640 Speaker 1: understand that you're just printing money and the prices are 1489 01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:43,080 Speaker 1: going to go up. 1490 01:08:43,120 --> 01:08:44,080 Speaker 2: How does he react to you? 1491 01:08:45,160 --> 01:08:47,880 Speaker 6: Well, first of all, let me say something about Milania 1492 01:08:48,000 --> 01:08:54,040 Speaker 6: because in my lifetime I have met two women who 1493 01:08:54,120 --> 01:08:58,080 Speaker 6: literally when I saw them, my jaw just dropped. And 1494 01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:03,240 Speaker 6: one of them was Milania Trump, and the otherwise Christine Brinkley, 1495 01:09:03,720 --> 01:09:06,880 Speaker 6: Christy Brinkley, and they you know, she is a gorgeous woman. 1496 01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:08,960 Speaker 6: I have so much respect for that woman. By the way, 1497 01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:11,679 Speaker 6: I mean, here's a woman who's been just dragged through 1498 01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:17,519 Speaker 6: the mud. The press despises her. By the way, Michelle 1499 01:09:17,560 --> 01:09:20,080 Speaker 6: Obama was on the cover of all these women's magazines 1500 01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:22,960 Speaker 6: like twenty eight times. You know how many times Milania 1501 01:09:22,960 --> 01:09:24,439 Speaker 6: has been on the cover of these like zero? 1502 01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:27,120 Speaker 1: My favorite of my favorite of Michelle Obama was the 1503 01:09:27,160 --> 01:09:30,040 Speaker 1: Men's Health one. That was favorite Big Mike. 1504 01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:33,840 Speaker 6: So anyway, I love Malania Trump, and you know, she's 1505 01:09:33,880 --> 01:09:36,080 Speaker 6: just I think she's so cool because not only she 1506 01:09:36,120 --> 01:09:39,120 Speaker 6: a beautiful woman, but she is just so serene. She 1507 01:09:39,280 --> 01:09:41,840 Speaker 6: just rises above it all. And I remember the last 1508 01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:44,799 Speaker 6: time she gave a speech, these snitty women on CNN. 1509 01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:47,920 Speaker 6: She speaks with an accent. It's like you're the ones 1510 01:09:47,960 --> 01:09:49,480 Speaker 6: who say how much you love immigrants. 1511 01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:55,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt about it. But back to my question, though, Win, 1512 01:09:55,880 --> 01:09:56,439 Speaker 2: what was the question? 1513 01:09:56,479 --> 01:09:58,600 Speaker 1: The question was is how would Trump act to you 1514 01:09:58,640 --> 01:10:00,000 Speaker 1: when you would say, hey, this is what you got 1515 01:10:00,040 --> 01:10:02,160 Speaker 1: to do different? Would he take that the harder? Would 1516 01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:03,280 Speaker 1: he just keep printing the money? 1517 01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:07,400 Speaker 6: Well, listen, you know Trump has us on a good 1518 01:10:07,439 --> 01:10:09,840 Speaker 6: course right now. I mean Trump likes to spend many 1519 01:10:09,880 --> 01:10:12,080 Speaker 6: all the politicians do. That's why you need, you know, 1520 01:10:12,160 --> 01:10:16,799 Speaker 6: constitution to keep the government politicians off with the money supply. 1521 01:10:16,880 --> 01:10:20,439 Speaker 6: But we're on a really good course right now. Trump 1522 01:10:20,520 --> 01:10:23,400 Speaker 6: has his flaws. Every time I see him. You know, 1523 01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:25,559 Speaker 6: I'm supposed to go see him next week. I say, 1524 01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:27,800 Speaker 6: they're Steve Moore. He's a great economist, but he doesn't 1525 01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:31,120 Speaker 6: like my tariffs. I'm not a big fan of your teriffs. 1526 01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:33,559 Speaker 6: But even that has sort of turned out pretty well. 1527 01:10:33,600 --> 01:10:36,400 Speaker 6: He's gotten some very good trade deals. He's he is 1528 01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:39,720 Speaker 6: one of the greatest negotiators I've ever met. He really is. 1529 01:10:39,840 --> 01:10:43,120 Speaker 6: He does understand out of the deal. And so look, 1530 01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:46,200 Speaker 6: I think my message to you Ray and your listeners 1531 01:10:46,200 --> 01:10:50,040 Speaker 6: there in in Balma, Chicago is things are getting better, 1532 01:10:50,120 --> 01:10:50,719 Speaker 6: a lot better. 1533 01:10:50,920 --> 01:10:51,960 Speaker 2: I agree with that. 1534 01:10:52,080 --> 01:10:55,479 Speaker 1: And and and just to cap off on Malania, is 1535 01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:57,400 Speaker 1: that this go wround. You know, she doesn't have to 1536 01:10:57,400 --> 01:10:59,760 Speaker 1: worry about raising barn anymore. She's out there doing what 1537 01:10:59,840 --> 01:11:02,240 Speaker 1: she does. She's kind of thrown caution to the wind. 1538 01:11:02,680 --> 01:11:05,240 Speaker 1: And I think that this time around, you know, she's 1539 01:11:05,240 --> 01:11:09,519 Speaker 1: gonna make people notice and we appreciate the business.

So he's fighting for these for these ticket 1688 01:18:57,439 --> 01:19:01,599 Speaker 1: tickets to go down to be more affordable. Federal Trade 1689 01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:04,519 Speaker 1: Commission sued the two companies September twenty twenty five, alleging 1690 01:19:04,520 --> 01:19:07,840 Speaker 1: they profited from fees while turning a blind eye to 1691 01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:12,960 Speaker 1: illegal resale tactics. So the experts are saying that Live 1692 01:19:13,080 --> 01:19:15,519 Speaker 1: Nation and I've got buddies that work at Live Nation 1693 01:19:15,600 --> 01:19:18,120 Speaker 1: at high levels that are friends of mine, and I 1694 01:19:18,200 --> 01:19:20,280 Speaker 1: know they do very very well. 1695 01:19:20,120 --> 01:19:20,759 Speaker 2: As a company. 1696 01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:25,680 Speaker 1: But I you know, somebody like Morgan Wallen, you know, 1697 01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:28,479 Speaker 1: here's the game. Does he even know who he's getting 1698 01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:31,360 Speaker 1: into business with when you you know, I guess not. 1699 01:19:31,640 --> 01:19:33,560 Speaker 1: I mean, why in the world would anybody? And you know, 1700 01:19:33,680 --> 01:19:37,240 Speaker 1: I remember reading an article last fall where Live Nation 1701 01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:39,120 Speaker 1: was saying, you know what, these people when they come 1702 01:19:39,160 --> 01:19:42,599 Speaker 1: to town and like Beyonce, you know, lover hate Beyonce, right, 1703 01:19:42,640 --> 01:19:45,320 Speaker 1: But Beyonce brings a show. And I'm just using her 1704 01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:49,479 Speaker 1: as an example because she comes in with thirty something buses, No, 1705 01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:53,120 Speaker 1: thirty something trucks, sixteen buses. That's what makes her song 1706 01:19:53,240 --> 01:19:57,280 Speaker 1: sixteen Carriages so famous. One of the best country artists, Avernick. 1707 01:19:58,200 --> 01:20:00,400 Speaker 1: But what they said at the time was is you know, 1708 01:20:00,439 --> 01:20:02,800 Speaker 1: when people come here with these shows this large, it's 1709 01:20:02,800 --> 01:20:04,559 Speaker 1: like setting up for a super Bowl, and they should 1710 01:20:04,600 --> 01:20:08,320 Speaker 1: be compensated as such. But they priced regular people right 1711 01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:12,080 Speaker 1: on out of here. What what do you think the 1712 01:20:12,280 --> 01:20:16,599 Speaker 1: cut is for the artist? Hard to tell because who's 1713 01:20:16,640 --> 01:20:18,519 Speaker 1: running it? Is the artist running it or is the 1714 01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:20,800 Speaker 1: record label running it? You know, what do you get it? 1715 01:20:20,880 --> 01:20:22,040 Speaker 1: What do you get to take of? Do you get 1716 01:20:22,040 --> 01:20:26,000 Speaker 1: a take of? Does merch go Live Nation?

But you know, you don't get 1721 01:20:40,360 --> 01:20:42,519 Speaker 1: and if you're going to take and put somebody of 1722 01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:45,800 Speaker 1: a major name at a place like Joe's on Weed, well, 1723 01:20:45,800 --> 01:20:48,360 Speaker 1: good luck getting a ticket if you don't know anyone, right, 1724 01:20:48,400 --> 01:20:50,439 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, Joe's on Weed, Oh wow.

I'm Brey Stevens Kerry Lake telling Newsmax. 1829 01:25:47,040 --> 01:25:50,080 Speaker 1: We like our friends at Newsmax. One of these days 1830 01:25:50,560 --> 01:25:51,920 Speaker 1: one of my hits is going to go through with 1831 01:25:51,960 --> 01:25:55,080 Speaker 1: those guys. I'm a Newsmax contributor. I've dressed up five 1832 01:25:55,160 --> 01:25:57,800 Speaker 1: times just to get bumped, and five times we've been 1833 01:25:57,840 --> 01:26:00,960 Speaker 1: bumped by President Trump. But that's okay, that's okay. I 1834 01:26:01,000 --> 01:26:02,960 Speaker 1: believe I'm going to be a Newsmax on a weekend 1835 01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:06,759 Speaker 1: show this weekend. But Carrie Lake told Newsmas that something 1836 01:26:07,840 --> 01:26:11,800 Speaker 1: is fishy if you will, about this Omar spray attack. Right, 1837 01:26:12,040 --> 01:26:14,599 Speaker 1: and this is not the first person in Minneapolis that's 1838 01:26:14,640 --> 01:26:17,080 Speaker 1: all of a sudden come forward in a jab with 1839 01:26:17,160 --> 01:26:18,760 Speaker 1: a bump on their heads saying that they have a 1840 01:26:18,800 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 1: scab because somebody hit him in the head with a brick. 1841 01:26:22,240 --> 01:26:23,960 Speaker 2: Right, So she said the. 1842 01:26:24,200 --> 01:26:28,120 Speaker 1: Episode is suspicious while saying, one be clear, no officials 1843 01:26:28,120 --> 01:26:30,680 Speaker 1: should be attacked, and we all agree with that. Nobody 1844 01:26:30,800 --> 01:26:34,960 Speaker 1: should attack anybody. Somebody you disagree with, leave them alone. 1845 01:26:35,600 --> 01:26:37,840 Speaker 1: Try to be civil, try to be an adult, try 1846 01:26:37,880 --> 01:26:38,759 Speaker 1: to be a human being. 1847 01:26:39,000 --> 01:26:39,160 Speaker 2: Right. 1848 01:26:39,400 --> 01:26:41,080 Speaker 1: We don't all have to get along, and you know 1849 01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:44,000 Speaker 1: that's part of the problem, Nick, Remember that it takes 1850 01:26:44,040 --> 01:26:44,439 Speaker 1: all of us. 1851 01:26:44,479 --> 01:26:46,719 Speaker 2: No, it doesn't. Some of us don't belong with the others. 1852 01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:50,479 Speaker 2: You don't go into the woods and see coyotes hanging 1853 01:26:50,520 --> 01:26:53,799 Speaker 2: out with rabbits. That some people just don't get along. 1854 01:26:53,800 --> 01:26:54,559 Speaker 2: And that's okay. 1855 01:26:54,880 --> 01:26:56,519 Speaker 1: We don't all have to get along, but we should 1856 01:26:56,520 --> 01:26:59,800 Speaker 1: at least respect each other, wouldn't you think. But a 1857 01:27:00,080 --> 01:27:02,960 Speaker 1: lot of people are talking about the way she acted, 1858 01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:05,760 Speaker 1: a lot of people that are behavioral experts saying, you 1859 01:27:05,800 --> 01:27:08,479 Speaker 1: know what, when somebody comes at you and they surprise you, 1860 01:27:08,479 --> 01:27:11,200 Speaker 1: your first thing isn't to attack them. Your first thing 1861 01:27:11,280 --> 01:27:15,479 Speaker 1: is to stop, retreat, gather yourself. Then the WTF moment 1862 01:27:15,560 --> 01:27:18,160 Speaker 1: kicks in. That's what the experts are saying. I can't 1863 01:27:18,200 --> 01:27:22,439 Speaker 1: say what I'd be like in that situation, Nick, Maybe 1864 01:27:22,479 --> 01:27:25,080 Speaker 1: you can hide around here a couple of times and 1865 01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:27,840 Speaker 1: jump out of me, like was that Cato they used 1866 01:27:27,840 --> 01:27:29,360 Speaker 1: to be in the Pink Panther movies. 1867 01:27:31,479 --> 01:27:32,439 Speaker 10: He's in the fridge. 1868 01:27:33,240 --> 01:27:38,439 Speaker 1: Is your dog bite? It's not my dog? But you know, 1869 01:27:38,680 --> 01:27:41,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. So you know, you look at some 1870 01:27:42,040 --> 01:27:44,040 Speaker 1: of the things that are stage. It's the old throw 1871 01:27:44,040 --> 01:27:46,280 Speaker 1: a brick through your own window type of a deal. 1872 01:27:46,320 --> 01:27:50,000 Speaker 1: You've heard that before, right, Jesse smull at here in Chicago. 1873 01:27:50,040 --> 01:27:51,760 Speaker 1: I think ruined it for a lot of people that 1874 01:27:51,920 --> 01:27:54,160 Speaker 1: just tried to use a good old set up ruse 1875 01:27:54,479 --> 01:28:00,320 Speaker 1: to their advantage. I'm just throwing it out there. Dan 1876 01:28:00,840 --> 01:28:02,800 Speaker 1: just texted.

That that is partly true. One Poplar Creek 1885 01:28:26,840 --> 01:28:29,200 Speaker 1: was awesome, but it was east of where the Now 1886 01:28:29,240 --> 01:28:31,280 Speaker 1: Arena is. The Now Arena used to be the Seer Center. 1887 01:28:31,280 --> 01:28:34,840 Speaker 1: It's totally different venue.

There is a horrible story and this 1914 01:29:50,200 --> 01:29:52,840 Speaker 1: includes a family out of the Southland. I want to 1915 01:29:52,840 --> 01:29:55,080 Speaker 1: say they were from Manhattan or Joe Lander somewhere, and 1916 01:29:55,120 --> 01:29:57,760 Speaker 1: I just it's it's sad to talk about. I don't 1917 01:29:57,800 --> 01:29:59,760 Speaker 1: know the family, but I've got a word upon word 1918 01:29:59,760 --> 01:30:03,439 Speaker 1: because i'm you know, I'm immersed in this industry, if 1919 01:30:03,479 --> 01:30:05,920 Speaker 1: you will. And there was a father and a son 1920 01:30:05,960 --> 01:30:08,880 Speaker 1: and they'd allegedly gone out and they might have had 1921 01:30:08,880 --> 01:30:11,760 Speaker 1: a cocktail or two. And I don't I'm not saying 1922 01:30:11,760 --> 01:30:14,559 Speaker 1: that they were over the limit. All I'm saying is 1923 01:30:15,160 --> 01:30:17,479 Speaker 1: late at night in Iron County, which is where Hurley is, 1924 01:30:18,560 --> 01:30:21,320 Speaker 1: these guys were out. Dad sled broke down, he was 1925 01:30:21,360 --> 01:30:25,240 Speaker 1: on the trail. Kid came up hit the dad killed 1926 01:30:25,280 --> 01:30:28,360 Speaker 1: him and he spent the night in jail. Could you imagine? 1927 01:30:28,400 --> 01:30:30,559 Speaker 1: Could you could you even imagine? And the only thing 1928 01:30:30,600 --> 01:30:33,240 Speaker 1: I say to people that go up there, especially for weekends, 1929 01:30:33,479 --> 01:30:34,600 Speaker 1: you know you're going up there, you're going to have 1930 01:30:34,640 --> 01:30:38,240 Speaker 1: a blast. Just start a crazy work backward. Be careful 1931 01:30:38,240 --> 01:30:40,800 Speaker 1: that things are fast, they're fun, but you never know 1932 01:30:40,840 --> 01:30:43,960 Speaker 1: what might happen. And I've I'm amazed to say things 1933 01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:47,400 Speaker 1: like that nick, because I, in my youth, tried to 1934 01:30:47,400 --> 01:30:48,719 Speaker 1: get arrested up there and I couldn't. 1935 01:30:48,760 --> 01:30:54,320 Speaker 2: I tried.
