1 00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:11,280 Speaker 1: It's that time time, time, time, luck and load. The 2 00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:24,759 Speaker 1: Michael Varry Show is on the air. I was just 3 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 1: tell anything Moan during the break and he doesn't realize 4 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,600 Speaker 1: how big The Wheel of Fortune was. When I was 5 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,240 Speaker 1: growing up, like must have been early to mid eighties. 6 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,919 Speaker 1: It would come on at six point thirty, so right 7 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,280 Speaker 1: after the news, and I don't know if it was 8 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 1: a highest rated show it had. It wasn't our house. 9 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 1: And I remember my mom would walk outside if I 10 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: was out shooting baskets or doing something outside washing the car. 11 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 1: She'd said the wheels on, and you'd go running in 12 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: and there was Pat Sajack and Vanna, which I think 13 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: they're still there. Anyway. They had the catchiest song, We'll 14 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: watch Her. When that song got in your head, it 15 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: had to be the best song for a TV show 16 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 1: in terms of just complete earworm. Anyway, watching the reckoning 17 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: that is occurring with John Wayne mccornyn is an absolute treat, 18 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: that arrogant bastard, that arrogant bastard having to come and 19 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: pander and watch it. I'm honestly telling you, it is 20 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: at least as bad as watching Biden last year, watching 21 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: him have to do things for the common people. He 22 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: posts a picture last week of himself in front of 23 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: trump Berger, the one on Chimney Rock, just north of 24 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: And it's kind of funny because it was an old 25 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: Checkers and the Checkers, I don't know if it's the 26 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: same owner or someone else bought it and then it 27 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 1: became something else, you know, like Tom's Burger or whatever. 28 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: And it's in an awkward little spot, and there's a 29 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 1: water Burger around the corner, and that area is kind 30 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: of rough anyway, and the road is really busted up there, 31 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: and the traffic is always bad, so it wasn't making it. 32 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 1: And I don't know if it's doing any better as 33 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,239 Speaker 1: a Trump Burger, but throwing the name Trump on there 34 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: all of a sudden is gonna draw people in. So 35 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: Cornan goes and stands in front of the Trump Burger 36 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 1: puts both thumbs up in the cheesiest way, like here, 37 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: I am a trump Burger enjoying a good old fashioned 38 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: American burger, just like you. It's so terrible, and he posts, 39 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: or somebody posts for him. It's the last day a 40 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: small business week, so I decided to stop by Trump 41 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: Burger in Houston. Exclamation mark, Yeah, that's exciting. Stop by 42 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,799 Speaker 1: a small business and show your support. Okay, so we 43 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: got him coming to Houston. Needs to tell us he's 44 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: in Houston. We've got him at the Trump Burger because 45 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: remember he's the Maga guy. He's not and support small business. Well, 46 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: I wasn't really sure if I was going to be 47 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: for Corning or not. But if he's telling people to 48 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: support small business, heck, I'm not liking. It's so bad. 49 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: It is so bad. Let's take a look at one 50 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: of the issues of late where he has had to 51 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: do it about face. Remember when he pandered to Muslims 52 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: back in twenty twenty two. 53 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 2: Hi, I'm Texas Senator John Corny. I want to take 54 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 2: a moment to say I know this year's Ramadan will 55 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 2: be different from those before, and that's why it's important 56 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 2: to keep the spirit of hope in community alive. I 57 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 2: wish you all good fast and that you and your 58 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 2: friends and families stay safe during this challenging time. 59 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: Obama, and then there was this, so what happens in 60 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: the leadership race? Are you certain that you will run 61 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: for re election? And here you are? You do you 62 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: think I mean God willing? Well, yeah, I mean God 63 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: Inah in Shallah, which means if people translate it as 64 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: if God is willing. But it's important to understand that 65 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: is the Muslim reference to Allah being the God, not 66 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: just God in a small G or even a capital G. 67 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: It is the specific God in Shallah, if God wills it. 68 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: That was meant to be something that Whitey didn't notice, 69 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 1: but Muslims caught and they would go, ah, look at that. 70 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: He's pandering to us. Now now that he's he's trailing 71 00:04:55,120 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: Ken Paxton badly in the Republican primary, guess what he's doing. 72 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 1: He's calling for an investigation into the community outside of Dallas, 73 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: the Muslim community that's called epic, and he's claiming that 74 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: Ken Paxton is behind it. He's going to run the 75 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: nastiest campaign you have ever seen. It is going to 76 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: be so brutal. They're going to have people convinced that 77 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: Ken Paxton is the devil himself because that's the only 78 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 1: way he can win. Remember I told you earlier that 79 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: when a person has to criticize their opponent as the 80 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: only reason, that's what they had to do for Joe 81 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 1: Biden against Trump, and then for Kamala against Trump, that's 82 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: what Cornin has to do. He can't raise his positives 83 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: because Republican primary voters don't like him. So the only 84 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 1: thing he can do is convince you that Ken Paxton 85 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 1: raped your daughter. And if you'll believe that Ken Paxton 86 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: raped your daughter or stole your car or cannibalized your grandfather, 87 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: he was a part of the original Donar Party. If 88 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: he can convince you of those things, then maybe you'll go, well, 89 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 1: I guess I'll go ahead over o'cornyan, because pass are bad. 90 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: And that's exactly what they're going to do. We knew 91 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: when he wanted to be Senate Majority Leader he would 92 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 1: suddenly become maga. And that's what John Wayne mccornyan does. 93 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 3: John Wayne mccornyn wants to be your Senate Majority Leader 94 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 3: And wha is that? Because you are maga and John Wayne, 95 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 3: by God mccornyan is the Maga is some bitch in Texas. 96 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,159 Speaker 3: Have you catch him at a monster truck rally. Chances 97 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 3: are you'll catch him in one of them dazzled Maga 98 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 3: cowboy hats in a red, white and blue made in 99 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 3: America three piece suit. How maga is mccornyn His playlist 100 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 3: has two songs YMCA God Bless the USA. He drives 101 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 3: a Ford F three point fifty duly with over one 102 00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 3: hundred tattered flags furling in the bed. Half of them 103 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 3: say make America great again, half say let's go Brandon, 104 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 3: and half say FJB. John Wayne mccornyn was not a 105 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 3: math major. He majored in America. And it's going to 106 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 3: take a leader that majored in America to be the 107 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 3: majority leader in the Senate of America. A MAGA leader 108 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 3: whose everyday Carrie kit includes a Gerber multitool, a Timex 109 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 3: Ironman Watch, an iPhone six ridge wallet in a well 110 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 3: worn pocket. Constitution. So call your senators America and leave 111 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 3: a message that you support super mega Ultramega John Wayne mccornyn, 112 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 3: who is definitely not a squishy rhino, that is clearly 113 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 3: incentivized to keep the status quo, the status quo John 114 00:07:52,360 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 3: Wayne mccorny, John Wayne. 115 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: Show Ramon, that is in the conversation. 116 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 4: This seals for. 117 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: Greatest vocal performance of all time. It is I'm not 118 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: saying it is the greatest, but it's in the conversation, 119 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: and it's going to be a top fiber Minnie Ripperton 120 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 1: Loving You for My Money is up there. Now. I 121 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: got a thing for Stevie Nicks, and there's about three 122 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 1: songs by Stevie Nicks that are going to be up 123 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: there for me that are really strong. And then I 124 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: got Dolly and I Will Always Love You. And this 125 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: may surprise people because when I ask what song I 126 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 1: asked the other day for the name of a song 127 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: pre two thousand that other people like that you don't, 128 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: and I had several people email me Whitney Houston, I 129 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: Will Always Love You, and I don't understand that. I think. 130 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: I think that's a phenomenal, phenomenal vocal performance. It's so 131 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: different than Dolly that it doesn't threaten Dolly. It's a 132 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: very very different deal. But you know what, I noticed 133 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 1: that the songs that people said they didn't like that 134 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: everybody else likes were some of the greatest songs, but 135 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: Human Rhapsody, Hotel California, Stairway to Heaven, the fact that 136 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: some people said Freebird, and I think what happens is 137 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 1: those songs get so overplayed, and in fact, most of 138 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: the songs that people said that about were not songs 139 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: that are goofy, you know, like ak breaking Heart. Okay, 140 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: I could see where you'd say, I don't really like 141 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: that because it's a concept song. It's a novelty song. 142 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: It's not meant to be pure art. It was a 143 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 1: novelty song that I'm not sure Billy ray Cyrus understood 144 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 1: was a novelty song. So he thought he was, you know, somebody, 145 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 1: and the whole thing kind of worked with the mullet 146 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 1: and and and the image and all that, and it 147 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: lasted long enough till his daughter could could become a 148 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: legitimate star. And she has legitimate star power and and 149 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 1: had incredible pipes, and now she's got that thing that 150 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: vibe where even though her voice is busted, she's got 151 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 1: a star power that you know, she's the real star 152 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: in the family. But anyway, it surprised me how many 153 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 1: songs were songs that are that are epic songs, they're 154 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: they're in the Parthenon of great songs, but people didn't 155 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: like them because they're so overplayed. That was more common 156 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: than song that you know, just people just didn't like 157 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: because they didn't like anyway. For my money, Mini Ripperton 158 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 1: and female vocal performances is up there, and it is 159 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: just that darned good. There was a porch pooper in 160 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 1: the Los Angeles area caught on video giving shall we say, 161 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: special deliveries to at least two different homes. The story 162 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:39,959 Speaker 1: from Fox eleven. Oh, that's Chad's prep, but it's from 163 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: Jim's audio. Rolled over. It's titled number ten ten. Actually 164 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 1: you know what? 165 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 5: Hold that? 166 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: Hold that because there's two more bits of audio that 167 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: go with it, So just roll that over to the 168 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,679 Speaker 1: next segment.

She's ready to retire 384 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 1: and travel and have more time and do those sorts 385 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: of things, but she's also sad because this has been 386 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: a major part of her life. And I could just 387 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: imagine her taking down the cute little things that teachers 388 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,879 Speaker 1: put up. I was always moved by that. You know, 389 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 1: when you return to school and you go in there 390 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 1: and the teacher, they're so excited you're coming into their classroom, 391 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 1: and you know they've spent their in service days getting 392 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 1: everything ready, with all the cutesy little stuff on the walls. 393 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: I had great teachers, and I loved and adore them. 394 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 1: I still feel very fondly that they gave me part 395 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 1: of their life and their patience and love and encouragement. 396 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 1: And it makes a difference, it really does.

That's quality right there. You know how invested 408 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: I had to be in that story to get to 409 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:37,400 Speaker 1: that point. Yeah, I a llured you see, you're always oh, 410 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: it's just gonna be a joke. There's gonna be a joke. 411 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 1: But you had no idea that was coming none. A 412 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 1: teacher asked his students to share what their dads do 413 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: for a living. Little Johnny said, well, my dad's a 414 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 1: stripper of a gay club and he turns tricks in 415 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 1: the alley to earn extra money. After class, a teacher 416 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: pulled him aside and said, Johnny, is your I had 417 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 1: really a stripper at a gay club who turns tricks 418 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 1: in the alley to make extra money. Little Johnny said, no, ma'am. 419 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: He's a reporter for CNN. But I was too embarrassed 420 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 1: to say that. During a Man on the Street interview 421 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: in Mexico, people were asked how they felt about Donald 422 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: Trump building a wall, and they said, we'll get over it. 423 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 1: Mama needs you to hit that, you know a little earlier. 424 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: That's pretty quality joke right there, and we needs you 425 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 1: to go ahead and just be getting to that a 426 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:47,399 Speaker 1: little bit faster. Medical question for you, what do you 427 00:26:47,680 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 1: call an STD that makes you deaf? Hearing aids? 428 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 5: All? 429 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 1: Right? Boxing question you like?

Ali Fraser or foreman Jim Jones? 431 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 1: I googled lost medieval servant boy and the result was 432 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: this page cannot be found. That's all I got from. 433 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 1: That's it. That is it. 434 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 5: We uh. 435 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 1: We are heading into the summer and I have been 436 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 1: reaching out to show sponsors about how their business is going, 437 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,639 Speaker 1: and I am noticing that we have a lot of 438 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: B t B. Now, I always wanted more B to 439 00:27:53,840 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 1: B and not just retail restaurants, jewelry, car dealerships were 440 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: traditionally what was the staple really car dealerships if you remember, 441 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:10,639 Speaker 1: electronics stores and car dealerships were it. And my thought 442 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:16,640 Speaker 1: was I wanted a more balanced, diversified group of show sponsors, 443 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: and we have developed that, and I love that. What 444 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 1: I'm noticing is retail is very much driven by emotional 445 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: buying decisions. So people were scared the economy was going 446 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 1: to be bad, and so they hold on to money. 447 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 1: Mac saw it, Connie and Billy saw it. At Corey Diamonds. 448 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 1: Greendales doesn't see it because, for whatever reason, their recession 449 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: proof and whatever else proof, But some of other restaurants 450 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: were noticing it. Matt Brice told me that at Federal 451 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: American Grill. And so what's been happening is as the 452 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 1: stock market has come back, recovered all of the losses 453 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: that had been that people had been hannicked into already, 454 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,479 Speaker 1: Federal American Grill is back full blown, Big City Wings 455 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: back full blown. Mac is seeing his sales go back 456 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 1: up because people don't go buy a house full of 457 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: furniture when they're scared what's going to happen in a 458 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: couple months. Now that they're seeing, oh, we're headed back 459 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,479 Speaker 1: to the economy. Economy we had in January twenty twenty 460 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: when the Democrats managed to throw a wrench in this 461 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 1: whole thing and tank it. So they could get the 462 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: feeble Joe Biden elected. But what I'm noticing is the 463 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 1: business to business guys haven't seen the dip. The folks 464 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: whose customers are more financially sophisticated and less emotional over 465 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: the upcoming economy have stayed pretty stable and are starting 466 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 1: to see an uptick. Home Depot yesterday announcing let's see 467 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 1: if I can find this. Yeah. Home Depot says they 468 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 1: will not raise prices in response to US tariffs. So 469 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: their CFO, who was on CNBC, said more than half 470 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: of their merchandise comes from within the United States, and 471 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: he said that our goal is twelve months from now, 472 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 1: no single country outside of the United States will represent 473 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 1: more than ten percent of our purchases. What is happening 474 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: as a result is businesses are making decisions. They don't go, 475 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 1: you know, in the corner and go fetal position. They 476 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: make decisions like a drop of water, They find the 477 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: best route. They make decisions that are the best for them. 478 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: And what they're doing now is sourcing things in the 479 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: United States, which was Trump's goal all along. They're saying, hey, 480 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: you know, we need an American made hammer. Is there 481 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 1: one out there? Well, there's one in some small town 482 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: in Kentucky who knew. They didn't have to know because 483 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 1: the distributor they were using was completely invested in China. 484 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: So when they bought their mallets and their nails, the 485 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 1: guy said, and I got this hammer. Okay, it was easy. 486 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 1: It was streamlined. There was your supply chain, one distributor. 487 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: This is required. It's not that things weren't made in 488 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: the United States, it's that you had to work at 489 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 1: it a little bit.
