1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:07,640 Speaker 1: A friend was kind enough to send me the the 2 00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 1: commercial that George P. Bush ran that was the the 3 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,960 Speaker 1: Zoom Zoom I call it the Zoom Zoom ad. And 4 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:25,800 Speaker 1: it's the one where he's on the four wheeler. And 5 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: I think to myself, as much ridicule as we made 6 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 1: of that awful ad, seemingly reasonable people had to go 7 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: into a room to test that ad. All right, guys, 8 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,520 Speaker 1: here's the final creative on this. What do y'all think? 9 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 1: And reasonable people had to say, that's the one, yep, 10 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 1: the four wheeler riding across the ridge. That that's the 11 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: one that says he'll be a great attorney general. Wait 12 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: a second, what I say? 13 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:05,399 Speaker 2: All Right, y'all asked us. 14 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,759 Speaker 1: To review this thing ten times before we got here 15 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: and make our notes. I have a note. I guess 16 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: I'm only one. He's not wearing sunglasses. Were he to 17 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:22,199 Speaker 1: wear sunglasses while writing on the four wheeler on the ridge, 18 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: that would make the spot. Okay, guys, but do you 19 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:34,199 Speaker 1: know what, He's not wrong. He's not wrong. I don't 20 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: want to go back into the field and shoot this thing. 21 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: But if you guys are determined, I agree, And look, 22 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: if we're gonna have to go back in the field 23 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: and shoot this shot. I understand, you got it. You 24 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 1: know you got drones, you got all that, And we're 25 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: adding to the production cost and we really want to 26 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: put that money into airing the spot instead of making 27 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: the spot. But if we're going to do that, I 28 00:01:55,880 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: think we need to go to a way sternware store 29 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: and get him some off the rack, really really crisp, 30 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: brand new, like you just came from Japan and it's 31 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: your first rodeo. Look, you know, like when your host 32 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: company you've come to visit and we're gonna take you 33 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 1: to rodeo. Oh and then they put you in the 34 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: really really brand new jeans and button up shirt and 35 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: boots that have never been worn and everybody can tell 36 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: you just came out of the dressing room and you're 37 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: at your first rodeo. 38 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 2: Yes, here, here is. 39 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: Some corn on a stick, and here is a funnel cake. 40 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: Be careful, the confectioner sugar will get all over you. Now, 41 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: hop on the four wheeler. We got the sun all right, 42 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: we got sunglasses, we got the attire, yet all of it. Okay, 43 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: we got three Okay, no shadows. Make sure no shadows 44 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: from the drones. When he's riding all right, get after it, GP, 45 00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: get on it. 46 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 2: Woom boom, boom boom. 47 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,639 Speaker 1: There were people who thought that was a good idea. 48 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: There were people who thought that And I bring that 49 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,959 Speaker 1: up because the consultant who thought that was a good idea, 50 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: Chris Laslovita, who worked for Trump, is the consultant for 51 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: Aaron Wright's, and so I have passed a message through 52 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: mutual friends. Watch that ad because I don't know Aaron Wrights. 53 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,239 Speaker 1: Watch that ad and ask yourself if this is really 54 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: the guy you want run in the campaign. Wes, you're 55 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: on the Michael Berry Show, Go ahead. I truly believe 56 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 1: that the Michael Berry audience would rather listen to the 57 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: King and Dean host the show on days Michael is 58 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: traveling than reruns of Ted NuGen. 59 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 3: Interviews only when you're traveling. 60 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 4: Okay, give me a shot, give me a shot. 61 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm you know, if Ramone wanted to host the show, 62 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: Ramon would host the show on the issue of a 63 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: rerun let me, I'm glad you brought that up. This 64 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: is a good conversation. I'm not going to criticize anybody 65 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 1: else in radio, but if you were to look at 66 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: the number of days that people who do what I do, 67 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: and none of them do five hours a day. 68 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: But if you were to look at the number of 69 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 2: people who. 70 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 1: Do what I do and the number of vacation days 71 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: they take, that means days they are not on the air, 72 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,799 Speaker 1: you would find it is far. 73 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 2: In excess of what we do. But that's okay. 74 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 1: I don't really need to account to anyone for when 75 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: I'm behind the mic and when I'm not. Many times 76 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: things come up at the very last moment. I've had 77 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: two elderly parents in and out of the hospital at 78 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: the last minute over the last few years. So we've 79 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: got a couple of things that we call evergreen that 80 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 1: should I be called to the hospital at the last minute, 81 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 1: they air. And my response to that is this, it's 82 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: a free radio program. You are welcome to turn the 83 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: dial if there's something you don't like. Michael, you do 84 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 1: too much of this, You talk too much politics, You 85 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:18,159 Speaker 1: don't talk politics enough. 86 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 5: You do it. 87 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: Everyone feels that the customer is always right. That is 88 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 1: the worst approach you can possibly have. But rest assured, 89 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 1: since this comes up. If Ramone wanted to host the show, 90 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 1: Ramone would host the show. Do the math, He doesn't. 91 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,679 Speaker 1: I would love to come and look over your shoulder 92 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: and tell you the ten things you would most like 93 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: to improve. But you know, I learned a long time ago. 94 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 1: The first couple of years we were in radio, nobody 95 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 1: cared to pick at the show and tell me I 96 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: love the show, I wish it was one more hour. 97 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: I love the show. And I realized you reach a 98 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: certain point that people are so connected with the show 99 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: that they feel the need to say ninety nine percent 100 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: of the show is awesome. The only thing that would 101 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: be better is if you did this one extra thing. 102 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: And it took me a long time to understand that 103 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 1: is the ultimate compliment, because when you make the mistake 104 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 1: of taking feedback from that broad an audience that often 105 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: it feels like it becomes a little exhausting that every 106 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: person out there who has an opinion as to how 107 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: you can do things better, we'll offer it. 108 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 2: You don't offer the. 109 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: Worst restaurant in the world advice on how you When 110 00:06:55,800 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: I'm with Russell Lebarro, people will say, man, I love Ringos. 111 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 2: Text makes I love it. 112 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 1: You know what I wish you would do is, wait 113 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: a minute, why can't you just love it? 114 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 2: Does it ever? 115 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: End does the Is your life so perfect you've solved 116 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: everything in your own life?

You didn't 120 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: know who Ramone was until he and I teamed up 121 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: and I told the whole world how great he was. 122 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: Now I have people going, you don't know how great 123 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: Ramone is? 124 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 2: Do you? 125 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 5: Do you? 126 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: Yeah?

Sometimes 185 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 3: I missaying and when. 186 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 4: I replayed, I say ooh, I got it. 187 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 3: One thing, Michael, it takes a lot to feel your shoes, 188 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 3: and you build that reputation over the years when you 189 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 3: first jumped on. Okay, but you got history in miles. 190 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 3: Now it's gonna take a big, big person to feel 191 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,719 Speaker 3: those shoes, to feel in for you. And I think 192 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 3: I need to go on here and stop playing. 193 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: And you're ready, You're ready, Just all right, brother. 194 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 2: All right, you're first in line. 195 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 5: You know. 196 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:56,839 Speaker 2: The funny thing is. 197 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: When Rush would have feelings, I would always be so 198 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 1: bummed out. I thought Mark Stein hated his accent. Rush 199 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,959 Speaker 1: never had villains that could replace him. It was almost 200 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 1: never a radio person. Mark Davis and Mark Belling were 201 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 1: the only ones. It was mostly people who were not 202 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: radio people, and I think he thought that made the 203 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 1: show more interesting. I made a decision pretty early on 204 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: that our listeners come to hear our content. It's not 205 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: that it's the best, it's the best. You want to 206 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: hear any other show. You can hear any other show. 207 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 1: Our listeners came to our show for what we do, 208 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: and so I decided that even if for whatever reason 209 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 1: I had to be out, we weren't going to have 210 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: a guest host because I never liked a guest host. 211 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 1: I don't tune into a radio show to hear Rush 212 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: Limbaugh or some other dude. I would have rather if 213 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: Rush wasn't there, play one of Rush's best shows. Play him. 214 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,679 Speaker 1: I'm laying out the thirty five rules, immutable rules. 215 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 2: I'd rather hear that I would. That's just me. 216 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 1: If someone wouldn't, that's fine. It's a whole lot easier 217 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: to put a guest host on. I never believed that 218 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 1: was the best approach, and that is my heartfelt opinion. 219 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 1: I have felt that for many years, many many times. 220 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 1: If we're going to be out Thanksgiving or Christmas, we 221 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 1: pre record a number of segments so it's still our 222 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: content during our show, rather than the very easy approach, 223 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 1: which is to have a list of people dying to 224 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 1: fill in and call them. And that's what people are 225 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: used to. And sometimes when people are used to something, 226 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: even if it's not what they would prefer, it's what 227 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: they will request because they've grown used to it. But 228 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,079 Speaker 1: in any case, yeah, that's the last I'm going to 229 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 1: say to that, because there is a certain kind of 230 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: personality that makes that statement, and that kind of personality 231 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: is somebody I know I hate in person, and so 232 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 1: maybe that's the. 233 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 2: Trigger of all of that. 234 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: But in any case, if you like the show, listen, 235 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 1: if you don't turn it off, I mean, what a 236 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: waste of my time for you to keep bringing it up. Honestly, 237 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: you've hit a nerve. Yes, if that makes you happy, great, 238 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: but what yeah, John, you're up, Go ahead, Czar. 239 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 3: I truly believe that there are two kinds of fish 240 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 3: in this world, fried catfish and everything else. 241 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: What I don't understand is why do people look down 242 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: on fried catfish. I would never understand that, have they 243 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: not had it. 244 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 3: You probably you'll probably never understand why people call it 245 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 3: and tell you how to do your show either. Brother, 246 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 3: don't even try? 247 00:14:56,400 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: Well, well, said brother, Well said I it's all day, 248 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 1: every day. 249 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 2: The beauty is. 250 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: So I had Outlook email for years, and then I 251 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 1: switched over to a Gmail platform, and now that's the 252 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: Michael Berry Show emails and unlike Outlook, which you got 253 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: to refilter them, and all. 254 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 2: That all you have to do is hit block. So 255 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 2: there are people who. 256 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 1: Say, hey, I've been emailing you and you don't respond, 257 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: and I'll say, well, I've probably blocked you. Oh well, 258 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: that one time. I said, yeah, just don't do that. 259 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: I don't come up and knock on your door and go, hey, 260 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: your wife is hideous, and your kids a little punk, 261 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: and your your grass is too high, And a year 262 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: later goes, how come we're not talking anymore. 263 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 2: Because I don't need to hear it. 264 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: I choose not to hear it. 265 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 2: Talk Radio The Michael Barry Show. I just got. 266 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: A message from my wife. And she normally doesn't communicate 267 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: with me while I'm on the air because it's a distraction. 268 00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: And she said, I just spoke to dad. He sounds great. 269 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: He be dialed me. My wife doesn't curse, and I 270 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: guess for her to use the word but with me 271 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: would be awkward. She said, he had be dialed me. 272 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 1: His sugar is at a nice two point fifty. He 273 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: thinks it's too high, but I told him that's exactly 274 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 1: where you want it. My wife laughs, because no matter 275 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: what anybody says to my dad, his answer is, well, 276 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: that's how Michael wants it. That's how Michael wants it. 277 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: That's how we're going to do it. Because in his mind, 278 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 1: I know more than the doctors, the caretakers, anybody. Michael 279 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: knows everything, which, as it turns out, I tend to 280 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 1: agree with. But in any case, I have, like a 281 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: it's not truly believe we'll get back to your calls 282 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: in just a second. I have, like a lot of you, 283 00:16:56,120 --> 00:17:05,199 Speaker 1: struggled with processing what has happened in Kerrville. And the 284 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: truth is, if we're completely honest, it's not so different 285 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: than what happened in Carolinas. It's not so different than 286 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: the tornadoes who come through the fertilizer explosion in West Texas. 287 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,959 Speaker 1: The number of people really shouldn't matter. It's the devastation, 288 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: it's the senselessness, it's the immediacy, it is the tragedy 289 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 1: of it, and the scale and scope of it really 290 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 1: shouldn't matter whether is it one hundred dead or one 291 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty or fifty or thirty. 292 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 2: Or one hundred. 293 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:45,879 Speaker 1: It's awful, and no single family suffers the loss of 294 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty people. You suffer the loss of 295 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: your little Chloe childress. You suffer the loss of your 296 00:17:55,560 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: little baby girl or baby boy. And so I've really 297 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 1: struggled with kind of where to put that in the 298 00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: response to it and all the things that go with that. 299 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 1: And one of the things that I've struggled with is 300 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 1: we have a lot of listeners who are engineers and 301 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: inventor types and tinkerers and hand radio people, and the 302 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 1: kind of people who may or may not have a 303 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 1: college degree, and may or may not have a college 304 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 1: degree in this subject, but many didn't go to college, 305 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: went straight in the military and went straight to work. 306 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: But in terms of technical proficiency, hand them a piece 307 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,880 Speaker 1: of equipment from nineteen forty eight, and hand your average 308 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 1: engineering student comes out of college today, even A and 309 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,199 Speaker 1: M or Purdue or wherever else, and I'll give it 310 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 1: to the guy that, like my dad, was a maintenance 311 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: worker that had to learn based on. 312 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 2: Tinkering. 313 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: And one of the things I've noticed is how many 314 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: suggestions I have received from listeners as to, hey, we 315 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 1: can build an alarm system in a situation like this, 316 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: We can build an alarm system using solar power or 317 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,919 Speaker 1: using a float system, or using this, or using this, 318 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 1: or using this. And I kind of struggled to where 319 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: to put that, because the easy answer is just disregard 320 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 1: the statement. And then it kind of all made sense 321 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 1: because I realized it's sort of the old you know, 322 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:45,919 Speaker 1: a lot of guys will tell me that their wife 323 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: will will explain a problem they're having. You know, their 324 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: wife's best friend is dating a bad guy and she 325 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: don't want him dating and or their wife's best friend 326 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 1: is upset with this is and so the answer is, oh, 327 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: I got this, I'll fix this. And we are different. 328 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:06,919 Speaker 1: Men and women are different. It's not just on the 329 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 1: sporting field or body density or masks or strength or 330 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: any number of Adam's apples or wieners or whatever else. 331 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 2: We are different. 332 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 1: And so it's kind of the age old conundrum of 333 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: a woman wants to talk about it and the husband wants. 334 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 2: To solve it. 335 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 1: We don't want to talk about it. Oh, the next 336 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 1: door neighbor is playing the music too loud, and you're 337 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 1: sure that she knows she's playing the music too loud 338 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 1: During the day. When I'm gone, I'll go deal it. 339 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no no. 340 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 6: Oh. 341 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 1: The school told our kid that he can't wear a 342 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:45,199 Speaker 1: cross to school because it might upset people, and that 343 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: has you upset. I'll go to the school, I'll tear 344 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 1: the whole damn place down, and I'll come home and 345 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,159 Speaker 1: our kid will wear a cross and you won't have 346 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: to fret a men. No, no, no, no no. 347 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 2: I don't want you to fix it. I want a vent. 348 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 2: I want to talk it. 349 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: I want to We're all different, and not every woman 350 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 1: is that way and not every man is that way. 351 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: But I came to realize that, particularly because of the 352 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 1: grief involved in all of this, the sense of helplessness 353 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: involved in I saw a story of two guys I 354 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: think they were they were military men. They were they 355 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 1: weren't special forces, but they were pretty advanced in their 356 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 1: military career. And they looked like JJ Watt and TJ Watt. 357 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 1: We have big boys, big strong, fulking and that they're 358 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 1: hugging their parents perished in the Curveville flood. And I'm 359 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: thinking to myself, those guys have to be thinking, if 360 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 1: we had been here, we could have put one on 361 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: mom on your back and dad on mine, and we 362 00:21:55,640 --> 00:22:00,040 Speaker 1: could have run to safety. The sense of helplessness that 363 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: you weren't there, That sense of helplessness that a cop 364 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: has when his wife is a victim of crime, when 365 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: he thinks, if I had been there. 366 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 2: I could have protected her. 367 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 1: Or a doctor when their child needs a medical care 368 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 1: and doesn't get it because they're in an accident and 369 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: they perish. If I had been there, I could have 370 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 1: staunched the bleeding. I could have saved my child's life. 371 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: That it makes you crazy, absolutely crazy. But I realized 372 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 1: that for all of the talk that people have the 373 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 1: frustrate what has dismissed as conspiracy theory, were the clouds seated? 374 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 1: How much silver eye down and they put in there, 375 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 1: how much rain is typical and how much rain was 376 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: a result of the seating. 377 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 2: Was there a tornado or was there a flood system? 378 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 2: Did it work? 379 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 1: If not, why when did it come out? For everyone 380 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: who is angry at those questions being asked, and when 381 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: those questions are being asked. My wife taught me early 382 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: on that when my kids were being a brat, which 383 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: was rare, but what happened there were two reasons. They 384 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:16,920 Speaker 1: were hungry or they were sleepy and off from both, 385 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 1: and I'd say, I'm going to turn around and I'm 386 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,160 Speaker 1: gonna let him have it. I'm going to berate him 387 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 1: to the point that she'd say, can we just eat 388 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: something first and then you can do whatever you want, 389 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: And amazingly, you. 390 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 2: Eat and you got your child back. 391 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 1: It was like a Chia Pett just grew back into 392 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: being your child again when you understand, because I know 393 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 1: there's a lot of criticism of people who want answers 394 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: to what has happened in Curville. And maybe they're asking 395 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:52,199 Speaker 1: too fast. Okay, I got it, because they don't have 396 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: three funerals to. 397 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:54,120 Speaker 2: Go to before they ask. 398 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: But I think that comes from a good place of 399 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 1: people wanting to never have this happen again, and and 400 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 1: that is a commendable trick. Michael Berry, it isn't you believe? 401 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:14,360 Speaker 1: Seven one three nine one thousand, seven one three nine 402 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: one thousand. 403 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 2: We start with. 404 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 5: All are truly. 405 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 2: James? What do you truly believe? 406 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 8: Sir? 407 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 3: Sir? 408 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 4: I truly believe that Donald Trump's statement about move on 409 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 4: was a pardon to somebody there or maybe several people there, 410 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 4: that he's protected. Just my thoughts. I love Donald Trump 411 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 4: and all he's done, but there's just something doesn doesn't 412 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 4: past the smell test. 413 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 5: James. 414 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 1: I don't agree or disagree with you. It's not important 415 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: that I do, but I want to make sure I 416 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 1: understand your point. So I know you were being quick 417 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,679 Speaker 1: because that's what I asked people to do. Explain that 418 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 1: to me so I understand it. 419 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 4: I think it's a statement. Yeah, he does want to 420 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 4: move on. I just believe there's there's somebody or a 421 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:25,479 Speaker 4: group of people, or or enough that he just doesn't 422 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 4: want them all to get in trouble. They're not going 423 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 4: to get nobody's gonna get tried, or nobody's gonna get 424 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 4: really get in trouble. It's going to be passed on. 425 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 4: But I truly believe he's he's protecting a lot of 426 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 4: people and just wants to get away from it and 427 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,120 Speaker 4: get back to business at hand. 428 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:50,679 Speaker 1: And do you think that is primarily because some not all, 429 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: of those people are friends of his and he has 430 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: the prerogative to protect them and he is loyal to 431 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: people that that that he likes, or do you think 432 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: it is because to allow it to continue would be 433 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,199 Speaker 1: something of a distraction from the work at hand, or 434 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 1: some combination. 435 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 5: Of the two. 436 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 4: I believe it's people that he needs or he's going 437 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 4: to be working through and he doesn't want them discredited 438 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 4: by this whole scene. 439 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: Interesting, you know, sometimes I think about the fact that 440 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 1: there there will be people who will go to prison 441 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: for what, in the grand scheme of things, are relatively minor, 442 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 1: at least to the life of the republic, but there 443 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 1: is a sort of a. 444 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 2: Too big to fail. 445 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,639 Speaker 1: If you're big and powerful enough, then it's almost as 446 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 1: if you are untouchable. And that's not what Alexis to 447 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: Topeville wrote about in the mid eighteen thirties when he 448 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 1: traveled America, the concept of it, quality and freedom lived 449 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 1: side by side in the way he had never seen before. 450 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 1: And he would later say, since the idea that there 451 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: is no king, that is interesting. I was listening to 452 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 1: a Milton Friedman podcast or book yesterday, Free to Choose, 453 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:23,479 Speaker 1: and they were talking about the Great Depression was partly 454 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:29,919 Speaker 1: occasioned because of errors made between President Hoover's term and 455 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: FDR's term, and they referred to that as interregnum, which 456 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: in Latin means between the two regencies, between the two kings. 457 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: We don't refer to the time now. Back then it 458 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,919 Speaker 1: was till March, but today the president takes off as 459 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 1: January twentieth. We don't refer to the time between a 460 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 1: president being president the first week of November and the 461 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 1: new president being sworn in January twentieth. If that president 462 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: is not re elected, we don't refer to that as interregnantle. 463 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: Even though it's a Latin phrase and you know now 464 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 1: what it means, and you get the concept that the 465 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 1: point between the two kings, regency reade being that Latin 466 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 1: for for for the monarch. It just feels so antithetical 467 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:27,160 Speaker 1: to the American spirit, This idea of people being beyond 468 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: the reach of the law, corporations being beyond the reach. 469 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 2: Of the law. 470 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: It violates everything that I hold here. And maybe I'm naive, 471 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 1: Maybe that's it, maybe we're all naive. But but when 472 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 1: we see the Clintons get away with what they get 473 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: away with, when we see the when we see the 474 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: server smashed, Hillary's server smashed, we think, wow, what she did. 475 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 1: But somehow crimes against children. We are a prudish, puritanical people. 476 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 1: I think that's our Calvinist roots coming from England originally. 477 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 2: We are. 478 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: That violation bothers us more than a financial fraud. 479 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,479 Speaker 2: But this particular. 480 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 1: Case, well known to every American, involving the rape of children, 481 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: the trafficking of children to very powerful men and women, 482 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: and then that information very likely being used to get 483 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 1: those people to do what someone else, a foreign government, 484 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 1: a powerful deep state figure wants them to do. This 485 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 1: is at the heart of what offends every American and 486 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: particularly people who who believe in the integrity of our system. 487 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 1: This is really the first time I have seen the 488 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 1: base say no, we're not just gonna let it go. No, 489 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,720 Speaker 1: we're not just gonna have you tell us it doesn't matter. 490 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 1: You can't just tell us it doesn't matter at a 491 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: time like this. I read my emails to see what 492 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: people will think. 493 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 2: I was curious, are. 494 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: People going to Are people gonna say, no, Trump, you 495 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 1: can't just tell us to look away from Epstein. We'll 496 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: trust you on everything. We know the cases against you 497 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 1: were frauds. We know the arrests against you were fraud 498 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 1: We believe you on that. But no, we don't believe 499 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: you on this. Or would people say you got to 500 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: trust the president? Don't get distracted? 501 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 2: Would they? 502 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: And this is where Donald Trump is very effective. No 503 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 1: one's been as effective as this. Donald Trump gives his 504 00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 1: most loyal followers the world words they need to use 505 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 1: to defend him, and I hear them. I hear those 506 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 1: words then given to me and that person. I think 507 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 1: some people think they are their own words. They have 508 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 1: so incorporated them. That is brilliant messaging. That is not 509 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 1: a criticism of Trump. 510 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 2: It's brilliant. 511 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 1: You want to get your followers to defend you, you 512 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 1: give them the actual template of here's how you do it. 513 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 1: I have been very interested to follow this. I don't 514 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: think it's going away if and when, and I think 515 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 1: he will. Bongino steps down and Bongino goes back behind 516 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: the mic. He now knows things he did not know, 517 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 1: not just with regard to Epstein, but with regard to 518 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: who is behind all this, and what he says at 519 00:31:54,840 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 1: that point is going to be very very interesting, very interesting. 520 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 1: As always, you can email me through the website Michael 521 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: Berryshow dot com.
