Most of the 5 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:25,959 Speaker 3: people covering that campaign were not particularly knowledgeable about the past, 6 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 3: and didn't you know, may may not have even known that. 7 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:34,559 Speaker 3: You know, America firsters pac Madison Square Garden in nineteen 8 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 3: thirty nine and a pro Nazi Germany rally. 9 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,559 Speaker 1: You said over the weekend referring to it, there's a 10 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: direct parallel to a big rally that. 11 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 4: Happened in them in nineteen thirties, that Madison Square Garden. 12 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: So I know what I saw, and I'll just leave 13 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: it at that. 14 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 3: Do you think Donald Trump is a fascist? 15 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 2: Yes? 16 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 3: I do, Yes, I do.

And if you want 27 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 2: to really see something that said, take a look at 28 00:01:36,200 --> 00:02:05,919 Speaker 2: what happened. 29 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: The tillet. 30 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 5: Hug. 31 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 2: We bleed the same blood, we share the same home, 32 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 2: and we salute the same great American flag. We are 33 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 2: one people, one family, and one glorious nation under God. 34 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 2: So Jews and Muslims and Catholics and Evangelicals and Mormons, 35 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 2: and they're all joining our cores and large numbers, larger 36 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 2: than anyone has ever seen in this country before, larger 37 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 2: than they've ever seen in any country. And the Republican 38 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 2: Party has really become the Party of inclusion. And that's 39 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 2: something very nice about that. 40 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: You know, I'm trying to think of a band that 41 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: emerged as late as GNR did that gets inside my 42 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: soul the way GNR does. So, you know, there's very 43 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 1: little music, certainly almost no rock music post say eighty 44 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: three eighty four that really really appeals to me. Now 45 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: I might like it, but that really appeals to me. 46 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: But GNR, G and R may be the top of 47 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: that list. So kind of classic rock two point zero, 48 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: and they have a very classic rock you know, the distortion, 49 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: the lyrics, the even the phrasing, and a lot of 50 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: that is to me kind of a very skinnered esque. 51 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: And I don't think you'd have G and R without skinnered. 52 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: But I'm trying to think of somebody later than them 53 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 1: who really appeals to me in that way. You know, 54 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 1: there's some there's some nineties music, your your music that 55 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: I like, like Kryptonite. I think that's a great song. 56 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: Some of the Weezer stuff, you know, it appeals to me. 57 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: I actually do like Oasis, but I will tell you 58 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: OAYSI is in a little sacrony. To me, it's a 59 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 1: little sacrine. It can, it can a little goes a 60 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: long way. I don't want to hear a lot of it, 61 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,799 Speaker 1: that's for sure. All right, let's open the phone lines 62 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: back up. There are a couple of emails that I 63 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: pulled from the crowd I thought were good. Zor. I 64 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: don't understand why Christian churches don't just play the clip 65 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: of Kamala telling the guy who shouted Jesus is King. 66 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 1: I think he actually said Jesus's Lord, but either way, 67 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: and Kamalist said you're at the wrong rally. That was 68 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,919 Speaker 1: a blatant display of her views that it should be 69 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 1: relevant to all Christians. Just playing it without comment would 70 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: be powerful. Thank you, Dan, Dan, thank you for your message. 71 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: I would use that as a launching point to say this. 72 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: Pastors know good and damn well, the difference between the 73 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: two parties and the difference between these two candidates. Pastors 74 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 1: know good and damn well, the difference between boys in girls' 75 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: locker rooms and saying no, we're not doing that. They 76 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 1: know who's for what. They know which party is for 77 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: transitioning children, which is child abuse of the worst order? 78 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 1: That should be. 79 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 4: It? 80 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: Should you should be incarcerated for that nonsense. They know 81 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: the difference between opening our borders and protecting our nation. 82 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: They understand all of this. They don't lack the knowledge 83 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: of it. They don't lack the knowledge of Kamala Harris's actions. 84 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 1: You know, there's this group, I forget what it was. 85 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: It's an anti Catholic group and they were at a 86 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: Dodger's game and it's drag queens who show up and 87 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: they mock they mock nuns, and they mock Catholicism with 88 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: billboards with everything they do and everything they say. And 89 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris appeared with them in a rainbow jacket to 90 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: show solidarity with them. There's not a pastor in America 91 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: that does not know this, I assure you of that. 92 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: And yes, they could play that for their congregation. They 93 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 1: don't for a reason. Pastors today are mostly and those 94 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 1: that aren't this, you know, they're not this because they 95 00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: actually preach the Gospel and they're bold enough to speak out. 96 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: Pastors today are afraid of losing a member. Pastors today 97 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: are looking at a room full of consumers donors they 98 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: don't see or they don't accept the calling to minister 99 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: to those people. Same pastors they're not they're not showing 100 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: up at the church. When my brother died, I was 101 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: in I was I had to go to the hospital 102 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: to my dad was in the hospital at the time, 103 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: and we were worried we were going to lose him 104 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: any day. Then my wife laughs, my wife joking and 105 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: said he's going to outlive us all anyway. My brother 106 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: was only fifty four, So that was that came as 107 00:07:55,760 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: a huge, huge shock to us, and my dad was 108 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: in the hospital and we were close to losing him 109 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: many times during that period. He's actually kind of come 110 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: out of right now doing much better. But so I 111 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: was sitting. I didn't want to do this in front 112 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: of him, so I went out to the lobby and 113 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: I'm planning my brother's funeral, Jordan Peterson says, And this 114 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: is one of a friend of mine, Jesse Kelly's dad 115 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: just died. I guess it was last week, two weeks ago, 116 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: died in his sleep, heart attack. And the only advice 117 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: I gave Jesse was the Jordan Peterson advice, be the 118 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: strongest man at your father's Funeral's that's the Bible commands 119 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: you that. Anyway, I called my old youth minister to 120 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 1: preach my brother's funeral, and it was like, that's kind 121 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: of church I grew up in. That's ministering. That's not 122 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: just preaching and getting rid with more of the Michael 123 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: Berry Show. 124 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 5: She was a waitress at the Only joorted Town. She 125 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 5: had her reputation as a girl who been around down 126 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 5: Main Street after midnight, brand new fact six, a fresh 127 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 5: swine hanging from her lips, a bit. 128 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: Between her then this is Robert Keine. 129 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 4: The road goes on forever, and the party never ends. 130 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 4: When you're listening to the Michael Ferry Show. 131 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 5: And the party never ends, even sunny and was blner 132 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 5: over than the rest.

You said, 139 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: fifteen years ago you read this blog post about my 140 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: three year old granddaughter on air, and she included the 141 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: blog post and the audio clip of me reading the 142 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: blog post about her then three year old daughter. This 143 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: was fifteen years ago. The girl's calling Billy calling. 144 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 3: Knows Billy baby. 145 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 1: So I got an email from somebody that says, Michael, 146 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: you got to read this woman's blog because she puts 147 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,559 Speaker 1: your She put a funny thing on here. The blog 148 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: is called Jackson and Presley. George says, this week in school, 149 00:10:55,600 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: Miss Kathy, Miss I'm sorry. This week in school, Miss Kathy, 150 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: Jackson and Presley's preschool teacher was teaching them about charity. 151 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 1: Every Tuesday they can bring a can good to chapel 152 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: and the food is donated to the food bank. Miss 153 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: Cathy was explaining that the food is for people who 154 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 1: don't have enough money to buy food for themselves. Miss 155 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: Cathy could tell that Presley was listening intently, Presley's blogger's daughter. 156 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,559 Speaker 1: She said she could practically see the wheels turning in 157 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,439 Speaker 1: her head, so she paused and waited for Presley to 158 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: say something. Then Presley raised her little three year old hand. 159 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: Miss Cathy said, yes, Presley, and this is when my 160 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: daughter became the youngest Republican in the county. Presley said, 161 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: if them don't have no money, then them just needs 162 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: to go get a jobs. Cathy said, she's the most 163 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: grown up three year old she's ever seen. I think 164 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: I should maybe stop making them listen to Sean Hannity 165 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: and Michael Berry in the car on the way home 166 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: from school.

I didn't pry into 175 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: her private decision, but I feel quite certain based on 176 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 1: conversations we've had, she is still a Republican. Raise them upright. 177 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: Mike Overstreet added to the conversation about gn R the 178 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 1: band Boston. Two problems with that. The band Boston is 179 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:56,959 Speaker 1: earlier than the period I was talking about. Number two. 180 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: I don't even know if I say this Boston. Maybe 181 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: let me think about this before. 182 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 4: I say it. 183 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, Boston's the most overrated band of all time. Yeah, 184 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: it doesn't mean they're a bad band if they come on. 185 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: The problem if you're listening to a Boston album is 186 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: I'm not really sure whether they're playing the same song 187 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: eight times or whether those are eight different songs with 188 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: the same exact tune, because that's what it sounds like 189 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: to me. Why is your head set off? Are you upset? 190 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,679 Speaker 1: I don't know you were a big Boston guy. Well 191 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: that's just it. Well, then why are you invested? I 192 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: feel like Boston's one of those bands that everybody just 193 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: goes along with because they had that big sellouts and 194 00:13:53,440 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: they cool, cool album covers, greatest debut album of all time, 195 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 1: that's what you're saying. Okay, Well, look I don't want 196 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 1: to make people mad at the very time I'm trying 197 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 1: to get him to go vote. I don't want to 198 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: do that. I did, I was disturbed. So I go 199 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: into vote and there's an old man in there, and 200 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure he doesn't have full use of his faculties. 201 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 1: He's got, you know, he's kind of got that far 202 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: off look in his eye, and I mean, look, he's 203 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: really old. He's really really old. And the process had 204 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: already started when I walked in. But I'm an observer 205 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: of a lot of things, as you might have noticed, 206 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: and so I'm scanning the room. The audience is younger 207 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: than I expected it to be. And by younger, I 208 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: mean forties and fifties. There are fewer older people than 209 00:14:52,760 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: I expected. Every machine in the room, which was forty 210 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: maybe was being used, and there was an old man 211 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: who was behind me. So I had to crane my 212 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: neck to observe all this. But that doesn't stop me, 213 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: and I watched. Well, I first heard her say, now, 214 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: the newspaper doesn't endorse anyone in that race. They don't 215 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: have a candidate in that race, and it let me 216 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: give this woman the benefit of the doubt for a second. 217 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: For the sake of argument. He had told her she 218 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: was a helper. So she had a tag on it 219 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: that said some other something or another, and she was 220 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: a white woman. Maybe she was at that indeterminate age. 221 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: She could be fifty eight or she could be seventy. 222 00:15:55,920 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: And she's going through and she's it's like she's doing 223 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: this to defend herself, because you can't you know, she's 224 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 1: she's there as a helper. You can have an aid. 225 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if she was assigned at the polling 226 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 1: place or if she I don't know how this came about, 227 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: but she says, the newspaper doesn't have a candidate there, 228 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 1: and the newspaper has a candidate there, that this candidate 229 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: right here, And best I can tell, because I've craned 230 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: my neck pretty hard. At this point, she's casting the 231 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: vote for him. Well, there's no oversight of her obviously, 232 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: so she might just be voting wherever she wants and 233 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: he's out of it, you know, So, I don't know. 234 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: It bothered me to think, first of all, did this 235 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: old man really trust the Houston Chronicle, which is what 236 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 1: the paper was too. Did he really trust their endorsements 237 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: because and if he did, did he trust their endorsement 238 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: because there was a time that That's what an informed 239 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 1: voter and citizen did you know? When I was growing up, 240 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 1: my dad, if you hadn't if he referenced a story 241 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,120 Speaker 1: in the news and you hadn't read the paper, he'd 242 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: say it was in the paper, and you were a 243 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,640 Speaker 1: bad citizen for not being informed. You should know that 244 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:29,239 Speaker 1: Sheriff James Wade County Sheriff had been arrested for the 245 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 1: youth use of a methamphetamine pump methamphetamine I guess pump 246 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: that had been confiscated from the Orange Sheriff's Department, and 247 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: that he was selling drugs out of the Orange Sheriff's department, 248 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: and that the trial was in Sherman, Texas, and that 249 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 1: you know this was going to be You're supposed to 250 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: know those things. That's part of being an informed citizen. 251 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: He didn't go to college, but he believed you should 252 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: be informed. In the way you're informed is there's a 253 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: certain group of people we'll call them journalists, and they 254 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 1: don't work at DuPont and they don't teach in the school, 255 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 1: and they don't run the harding lawlor lumber Milly. They 256 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: go out and interview and research and they write it 257 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 1: down so the rest of us can know, so we 258 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 1: can cast good votes and things. And somewhere along the 259 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: way a lot of naive people. And they're not bad people, 260 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,120 Speaker 1: but they are naive, especially some old, older people. They 261 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 1: don't realize that that job has been overtaken by absolute 262 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 1: zealots who propose policies that these old people would hate. 263 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: Cour speakers, smart devices from Michael's brain, every single one 264 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: of them. 265 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 4: To your ears. 266 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:47,680 Speaker 1: This is the Michael Berry Show that exactly one guy 267 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:52,479 Speaker 1: call up in defense of Boston. I mean an email 268 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 1: in defensive Boston. In fact, I don't even know if 269 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: it's a dude. The name is Ricky r I c 270 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: k I. If you spell Ricky with an eye, you 271 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 1: better be a girl or in transition, Zara. I can 272 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: take liking somebody that has different political opinions than me. 273 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,439 Speaker 1: I would even be friends with Joe Biden. But I 274 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 1: cannot take somebody that can light the most overrated band 275 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 1: of all time, Guns n' Roses, and doesn't like Boston. 276 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: That makes you lower than Kamala Hillary and Tampon Tim 277 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 1: all put together. Have a great day. Keep up the 278 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: great work. I didn't see this where people get confused. 279 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: I didn't say I don't like Boston. I think they're overrated. 280 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 1: Let's say, let's say if I think, uh, let's say, 281 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:57,200 Speaker 1: if I were to tell you that Magic Johnson is overrated, 282 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: I don't believe he is. But and well, I don't 283 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 1: know if he has full blowed he's got the HIV. 284 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 1: He's had the HIV for a long time really makes 285 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: you wonder, but especially because of when he got it right. 286 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 1: If I say he's overrated, it doesn't mean he's not 287 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: one of the fifty greatest ball players of all time. 288 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: It is to say he doesn't deserve the credit he gets. 289 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: I don't actually believe that I can't stand Magic Johnson. 290 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: I think he's a phenomenal player. And his rookie year, 291 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 1: when i'llbeit tall point guard or point forward, which is 292 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 1: more what he played, played the low post for Kareem 293 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:45,159 Speaker 1: and played it well. That tells you how good that 294 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,199 Speaker 1: dude really is. I don't even think Jordan could have 295 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: done that. But anyway, Mark writes are I'm actually five 296 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: years older than you and I'm a big eighties pop 297 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: fan and classic country fan. The reason I tell you 298 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 1: this is because I'm a huge fan of Collective Soul. 299 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 1: If you like GNR, I think you'll be impressed with them. Plus, 300 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 1: they are proudly Christian. While they don't perform Christian music, 301 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: their music is uplifting and has a great beat and 302 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: sound as as do there I'll say this, as do 303 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 1: their lyrics. It's not that I don't know who Collective 304 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: Soul is. They were one of the first bands that 305 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 1: played the RCC. Russell Levara is a huge fan of 306 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 1: Collective Soul and paid them. He was seventy five thousand 307 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 1: to do a show for us outside we had to 308 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: Plus he had to pay I think twenty five thousand 309 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 1: all in to have a stage brought in and all 310 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 1: of their right to accommodate their writer. Yeah, so I'm 311 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 1: very familiar with Collective Soul. They don't rock my world. 312 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,360 Speaker 1: I think they're a good band. There are a lot 313 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 1: of bands that I don't dislike their music. I just 314 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:55,399 Speaker 1: I don't put them up there with skinnerd Sharon Rights. 315 00:21:56,320 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: You are right. White pastors won't preach anymore, but Gary 316 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: Hamrick will preach with no reservations on who to vote for, 317 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 1: and there's a link to Cornerstone Chapel. Hey, listen. If 318 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: your pastor is challenging the congregation to vote and is 319 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: proudly talking about a biblical application of the precepts of 320 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:27,159 Speaker 1: Christianity to how we vote and how we govern, bully 321 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 1: for him. Send him a note, say hey, Michael Barry 322 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 1: is saying that white preachers are afraid to talk about 323 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 1: politics and share their vision. And I realized I don't 324 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 1: go to a church with a pastor who's a coward. 325 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 1: I want to thank you for doing what you're doing 326 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,160 Speaker 1: because I didn't realize how rare it is. So thank you, Pastor. 327 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: So and So. Kurt writes the thing they did with 328 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: the jail, that's an ultrasound. I just had it done 329 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 1: to me a week go. So does that mean I'm pregnant? Ramond, 330 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: It was an ultrasound. I forgot that's what Harun did. 331 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,199 Speaker 1: Robbie writes. Neighbor across the dirt road moved here from 332 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 1: California three years ago. Retired mechanic right away. He put 333 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 1: up a Trump sign on his fence and he has 334 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 1: a Trump sticker on his truck. Born and raised in 335 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: Kelli and couldn't stand it any longer. Supposed to rain 336 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: on Tuesday. I had a listener tell me yesterday that 337 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:33,199 Speaker 1: KPRC TV was reporting a forty percent chance. Ramone just 338 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 1: told me an eighty percent chance, and he said that 339 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 1: wherever he checked it, I forget where it was, and 340 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: I don't care. It was a lightning bolt at three am, 341 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 1: so I suppose that means thunderstorms. My hunting buddies tell 342 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 1: me that Tuesday is I guess Tuesday's not opening day. 343 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: Saturday is opening day, and the concern is that a 344 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 1: lot of the retiree hunters will head out on Saturday 345 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: and be out there for a week. You know, this 346 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 1: happens every year. Happens every election cycle. Somebody will email 347 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,360 Speaker 1: me and they're out in the deer stand and they're 348 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 1: listening in there. They got a headset and they'll say, 349 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 1: I'm listening to you talk about it being election day, 350 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 1: and it crept up on me and I forgot to vote. 351 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: So you can vote through Friday. Go vote today if 352 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: it is to be, it's up to me, go vote today. 353 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,120 Speaker 1: The lines have died down, so now's a great time 354 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,360 Speaker 1: to go vote and Remember you can vote anywhere in 355 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: your county of residents, not where you were, where you 356 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 1: are right this minute, but the county where you are 357 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 1: registered to vote. Don't leave without casting a provisional vote. 358 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 1: If they don't let you vote, they have to let 359 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 1: you cast a provisional vote. A provisional vote won't be 360 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: counted unless the race is close enough that the number 361 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 1: of provisional votes exceeds the margin. So if your candidate 362 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 1: loses by eight and there's fifteen provisional votes, then they 363 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 1: have to go into your vote and see why it's provisional. Well, 364 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: your ID didn't match up. But in many of those cases, 365 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 1: those provisional votes, some of them will be allowed because 366 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 1: you know there was some technicality that kept you from voting, 367 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 1: or you know, you press your case at that point. 368 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 1: At that point it goes to trial, and that's what 369 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: you want to do. You want that to go to trial. 370 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,959 Speaker 1: You want your vote. You'd rather be a provisional vote 371 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: who is not needed. Then wish you had been a 372 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 1: provisional vote that was needed, but you didn't bother to 373 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 1: press your case. You know, I learned in law school 374 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: very early on that if you don't if you don't 375 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:47,120 Speaker 1: pursue your rights. You don't press your rights, you lose them. 376 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: When it's always stuck with me. You don't have the 377 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,439 Speaker 1: right to anything. You don't have the right to defend 378 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 1: yourself unless you exercise that right. 379 00:25:58,080 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 2: Hey, this is Tracy Bird. 380 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:06,360 Speaker 5: Tip my hand to the keeper the stars and. 381 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 1: Dis Jim Mudd submits as creative director for a future conversation. 382 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: Top three debut rock albums of all time Number one, 383 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: I'll start with number three, led Zeppelin, the album being 384 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:28,440 Speaker 1: led Zeppelin, Number two, Guns n' Roses, Appetite for Destruction, 385 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 1: and at number one his favorite band, of course, Van 386 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:38,959 Speaker 1: Halen with Van Halen.

Well, when I was growing up, 417 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 1: I listened my parents. I was in the back and 418 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: I would listen to you and we'd listen to Rush, 419 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: and people in their twenties and thirties would say, you know, Rush, 420 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: I'm a Rush baby. And I realized I'm a Berry 421 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: baby because I've been listening to your show.

It's an 426 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,040 Speaker 4: honor to talk to you, yes, sir, glad to have you. 427 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 4: Are you Mormon? Yes, sir? 428 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: Okay. You know how I knew? 429 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 4: Oh huh Northern Utah? Did they gave it away? 430 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: I just guessed, you know what, I didn't know Joel 431 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: when Romney was running in twenty twelve. And I like 432 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: to think I'm a student of things, but I did 433 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: not know this. I did not know how many Mormons 434 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:28,719 Speaker 1: there are in Oregon and Arizona. And it became an 435 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 1: issue during the primary because Romney outperformed where he was doing. 436 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: And you know, of course he did well in Utah, 437 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: and of course he did well in Massachusetts where he'd 438 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 1: been the governor. But Romney did very well in Oregon 439 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: and Arizona. And I remember Chad Knockanishi, our executive producer, 440 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 1: telling me Romney's going to do very well in Oregon. 441 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: In Arizona in the primary, and that was a very 442 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 1: hotly contested primary. Remember there was Rick sent Taurum and 443 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: Perry was in that for low Walls a bad back 444 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: problem for anyway. So I said, well, why is he 445 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: going to do well? 446 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 4: And we were on k. 447 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 1: EX eleven ninety in Portland at the time, and I 448 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 1: had made some Mormon jokes because I like to make jokes, 449 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 1: and some Mormons had gotten upset with me, and I said, 450 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: why are these Mormons? Why are there Mormons in Oregon? Anyway? 451 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: And Chad's wife was raised, April was raised Mormon, and 452 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 1: he said, oh, there's a huge Mormon population in Oregon 453 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: and also in Arizona. 454 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 4: Anyway. 455 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: You probably knew all those things. I didn't, But go ahead, 456 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 1: my man. 457 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 4: So yeah, I'm not a huge Romni fan. Of course, 458 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 4: people around here they're not so much fan of them 459 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 4: anymore either, which is why he's not running for reelection. 460 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:41,719 Speaker 4: I have had him on my airplane. I guess we're 461 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 4: getting off subject. I can say he was polite and respectful, 462 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 4: unlike you know, I love a lot of other elected officials. 463 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 4: But are you a pilot not a real h Yeah? 464 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: Okay, what kind of plane do you fly. 465 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 4: Flying e won seventy five and tell me about that plane. 466 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 4: It's built by Mbrer. It's a real popular in the 467 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 4: regional business, regional airline business. A lot of airlines like 468 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 4: using that aircraft because it has a lot of creature comforts. 469 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 4: It's not like the CRJ you know, where you feel 470 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 4: so cramped. It's a larger diameter fuselage, state of the art, 471 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 4: you know, fly by wire. It's got a lot of 472 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 4: bills and whistles to it. 473 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 1: You like saw that plane or that's just what you've 474 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: been put on. 475 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 4: I enjoy flying it. That being said, before flying this plane, 476 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 4: I was flying a thirty seat turbo prop. I flew 477 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 4: that for about fifteen years and that plane was just 478 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 4: a whot. Had a lot of fun flying that, and 479 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 4: I'd probably still beyond that if they hadn't retired it. 480 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 4: But I've been flying this current plane for just shy 481 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 4: ten years now. 482 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 1: In that category of plane, if you know, obviously not 483 00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 1: the most expensive or the least expensive. But if you 484 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: were to say bang for the buck, what would you 485 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 1: say in that category that the Chevy Tahoe of that 486 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 1: category of plane, what would you say that that would be? 487 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: What maker in model. 488 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 4: So which category is that you're talking about? 489 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: Well, the plane that you fly that category, I'm assuming 490 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: that's eight plus a jump and I don't know three 491 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: four million dollar plane. I don't know what would it. 492 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:27,240 Speaker 4: Be in terms of category. Well, these planes are probably 493 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 4: around forty fifty million. Oh wow, it's seventy six seats, 494 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 4: it's got twelve. 495 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 1: Oh okay, all right, I assumed. Okay, let me start 496 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: all over. Okay, that is that is not your average plane. 497 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: Is this a private plane or you you're flying commercial? 498 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 4: This is a commercial okay?
