First of all, 44 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 8: I don't think being a racist should be a basist 45 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 8: for losing your job. I think doing harm to other 46 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,919 Speaker 8: people should number one. Number two, I don't believe he 47 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 8: was a racist. I think that there were people trying 48 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 8: to make a name for themselves by claiming that he 49 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 8: was a racist. Number three, I think he was a very, very, 50 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 8: very talented entertainer, and that's unfortunate. And I don't think 51 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 8: the game was better without him in it. But you 52 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 8: asked for my for three favorite Greeks.

Do I know this Greek? 58 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 8: I'm trying to think of people I get visually who 59 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 8: are very hairy, because Greeks tend to be very hairy. Oh, Ted, 60 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 8: the barbecue guy, you know, I forget he's Greek. I 61 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 8: think of him as being more Palestinian. Oh yeah, Ted, 62 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 8: Ted Kazikas. 63 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 4: What's his name? Ted? Something Greek?

Let me tell 75 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 6: you what they did to us yesterday. You know, they 76 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 6: lied and said they were going to, you know, give 77 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,720 Speaker 6: you adequate notice when they were working on vegetation in 78 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 6: your area. 79 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 4: Blase, Blase, guess what. 80 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 6: We're at home, powers out, no noticipation in anything. We're 81 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 6: not sure, Haze, just ouris or what whatever. An hour 82 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 6: after power comes back home, we get the email, Oh, 83 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 6: we're gonna be taking your power down do the vegetation, 84 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 6: you know, remediation and things like that. So they lied 85 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 6: to everybody, as they always do. Why are you going 86 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 6: to take our power out and not let us know 87 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 6: any advance? We need to make sure that Governor Abbot 88 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 6: gets them out of Texas. This is ridiculous. I'm a patient, 89 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 6: a kidney patient, and luckily my friends that live not 90 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 6: too far that have their machines at home. Luckily they 91 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 6: weren't on their machines at that time because they don't 92 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 6: have backup generators and things like that. Yes, okay, they 93 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 6: need to invest in one, but we should be able 94 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 6: to depend on Centerpoint as much money as we pay them. 95 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 6: This is getting out of hand. 96 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 4: Are you on dialysis? 97 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 9: Yes? 98 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 7: I am so. 99 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 4: You could have been on dialysis when the power went out. 100 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 6: And let me tell you, my diasis plan doesn't even 101 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,919 Speaker 6: have a backup generator at their location. And that's another 102 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 6: thing that I want to hit on. I hope it's 103 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 6: a way that we can get government Abbot to introduce 104 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 6: a bill or someone to introduce a bill where these 105 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,160 Speaker 6: diasis clinics are required to have backup generators. 106 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 4: Yes, clinic, you're doing dialysis at home or at a clinic. 107 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 9: Well, I'm at a. 108 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 6: Clinic, but I have some of my cohorts that goes 109 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 6: to the clinic with me. They do it at home 110 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 6: and they just come there when they need to check 111 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 6: into the doctor and things like that. 112 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 8: You know, what I would be interested to know is 113 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 8: we have at the studio obviously we have backup generators 114 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 8: so we can stay on the air. But we have 115 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 8: what is it called UPC uninterrupted power ups. We have 116 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 8: ups ups. But what I don't know, Lynne, is if 117 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 8: that is if how long that would power a dialysis machine, 118 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 8: because that could be a real problem, a real problem. 119 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 1: You know. 120 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 8: One of the things we learned unfortunately the hard way, 121 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 8: during this last big storm. I think Beryl is a 122 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 8: dumb name, and so I don't say it. 123 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: I know the name of it. 124 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 8: But one of the things we learn is a lot 125 00:06:58,120 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 8: and I don't know what percentage, but it sure seems 126 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 8: a lot of these senior living facilities did not have 127 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 8: backup power, and those that did only had the power 128 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 8: for the lights in the hallway, which is the absolute minimum. 129 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 8: And it's kind of one of those things that I 130 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 8: think people need to start looking at when they make 131 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 8: a decision where to put their loved one, because there 132 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 8: were people who actually died. I don't know that the 133 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 8: proximal cause was the power going out, but that's going 134 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 8: to be the claim that is made. And I'll tell 135 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 8: you what. You start, you start having to pay one 136 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 8: of those claims. You would have been better off getting 137 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 8: a big honking industrial generator. 138 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 6: Exactly. They would have made sure they had the best one. Yeah, 139 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 6: it's just ridiculous, and you know, unfortunately it took something 140 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 6: like this to happen for it to really you know, 141 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 6: get back you know, on a limelight. But we need 142 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 6: to make sure that, yeah, we do what we can do. 143 00:07:58,920 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 5: We can go for. 144 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 8: Three days and how long are you hooked up when 145 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 8: you're there four hours and from the moment you walk 146 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 8: in until you're hooked up. Do you have to wait 147 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 8: around or can you pretty much just walk in and 148 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 8: get get taken care of? 149 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 5: No, I can. 150 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 6: I can walk in and they getting hooked up. It 151 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 6: takes about maybe two takes how much like ten, ten 152 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 6: to fifteen minutes to get hooked up? 153 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: Yes? 154 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 4: And do you have a port that it goes into already? 155 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 6: I have a what they call a fist life. 156 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 4: But they don't have to.

Just the 213 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:41,839 Speaker 1: word Democrats seem to suffice. Anybody can come under the 214 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: name Democrat. It could be the devil coming out of 215 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:48,079 Speaker 1: hell and call themselves a Democrat without knowing the deal. Well, 216 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: so you will have a whole line of blacks waiting 217 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:51,959 Speaker 1: to vote on them. 218 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,599 Speaker 5: I can't understand that the stuff they're complaining about the 219 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 5: high price of this and that, and they voted for 220 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 5: that stuff, they were trying to vote for it. I 221 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 5: don't understand it at all. Well, you know at same 222 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,839 Speaker 5: time they call, Yeah, they. 223 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: Voted the same time for different you know, they voted 224 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: people in office in different states. They are voted themselves 225 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 1: out of the state. And now they're going around looking 226 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 1: for a better life. So they're coming to states like 227 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 1: Texas and they're voting the same way, and that don't 228 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: make any sense there, No, And it's the part that 229 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,719 Speaker 1: that really blows in my mind. They call me cheap 230 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: because I'm a conservative. 231 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 5: But at the same time, they always come in to 232 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 5: borrow money that they never pay buried. 233 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: How you like that? A lot of them used to 234 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: getting things free, Tyrone. 235 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 4: Let me ask you a question. I feel like I'm 236 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 4: at the barbershop. This is the life for us, Tyrone. 237 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 8: Let me ask you a question. Let's let's go deep 238 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 8: into the psyche. Why do you think it is because 239 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 8: people are not stupid. We'd like to say they're stupid, 240 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 8: but they're not stupid. These these people you're talking about, 241 00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 8: these family members of yours, they are not idiots. So 242 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,839 Speaker 8: if you were to delve into their psyche as to 243 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 8: why they're voting that way, because I'll give you my 244 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 8: opinion and you tell me if you think this is 245 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,839 Speaker 8: right or not, and that is this, well go ahead, no, 246 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 8: you go ahead. 247 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 4: I'd love to hear your thoughts. 248 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 5: Well, I think that they trust the people because they 249 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 5: got the same skin color as them. All you got 250 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 5: to do is say they racist or day Republican, and 251 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 5: they turn away so quickly and don't want to hear 252 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 5: no idea of anything else. 253 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: That makes sense. 254 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 5: I don't care if you're racist or not, as long 255 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 5: as you're doing what's gonna benefit me. 256 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: That's the way I'm rolling the exactly. 257 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 4: You know what I think it is. 258 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 8: And I see this with Jewish friends as well. Let's 259 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 8: use Jewish friends instead of blacks for a moment, just 260 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 8: to see if this applies. There is a sort of 261 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 8: tribalism to every group of people, be they white, be 262 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:57,839 Speaker 8: they Evangelical, Black, Chinese American, Indian American, and so there 263 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 8: is a tribal identity of a sense of community, whether 264 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 8: that's geographic or not. People may not live in the 265 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:08,079 Speaker 8: same area, but there is this sense of tribal identity, 266 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 8: and there is comfort in the pack. There is comfort 267 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 8: to being in that group. And so what people do 268 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 8: when they want to rise up atop that tribe. And 269 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 8: there's a woman named Amy Chua who's written about this 270 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 8: in a book called Tribalism, what they do is they 271 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 8: say that group is about to attack our tribe, or 272 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 8: they're attacking our tribe. They don't like our tribe, but 273 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 8: I will fight them for you. You know, in ancient Greece, 274 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 8: I believe it was the Spartans, or sorry, in ancient Sparta, 275 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 8: I believe it was the Greeks who were her suit. 276 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 8: They had facial hair and the idea of having facial 277 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 8: hair or bearded because the Greeks were hairy and the 278 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 8: Spartans were not. The idea was the hairy people are 279 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 8: evil and they're going to and they're going to steal 280 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 8: our women and rape them. They're going to kill us, 281 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 8: and they're going to kill our children, and they will 282 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 8: make sex slaves of our women. So there was this 283 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 8: fear instilled in the village that no matter what, you 284 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 8: fight to the death, because like the Japanese defending their island, 285 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 8: because once they come, they're going to take everything. And 286 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 8: if you can instill it, you can instill that into 287 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 8: someone the way Palestinian her children are taught to hate 288 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 8: the Jews from the beginning. 289 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 4: You dehumanize them. 290 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 8: It becomes this shared hatred of the outsider who seeks 291 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 8: to destroy our tribe while at the same time tribal preservation, 292 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 8: and so it becomes really and this is The part 293 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 8: that's frustrating for you to get through to them on 294 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 8: Tyrone is it's not about Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, 295 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 8: and we tend to think it is. It's about our tribe. 296 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 8: It's about whether we're going to keep the band together. 297 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 8: It's about whether we're going to keep the family together. 298 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 8: And so it becomes a question of am I going 299 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 8: to go against our family and vote over there with 300 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 8: those other people, and it feels almost treasonous, and the 301 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 8: tighter knit the tribe, the more that is true. 302 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 4: It is true of Jews, it is true of blacks. 303 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 8: Hispanics have broken that down where you can comfortably say 304 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 8: I am a Republican for these reasons. But what you're experiencing. 305 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 8: I don't think you're arguing to people who actually believe 306 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 8: that Kamala Harris would be a passable president. I don't 307 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 8: think you're arguing with people that believe that things are 308 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 8: going well in this country, including for blacks. I think 309 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 8: you're arguing sadly, unfortunately, something looks far bigger, and that's 310 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 8: where I think we have to talk about, let's fix ourselves. 311 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 4: As a convalue. 312 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 11: You're a very sedited person who have just had you 313 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:55,479 Speaker 11: a double Cafe Express Lato with two pieces of mevertose. 314 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 11: Is you ready to listen to some heavily slanted left 315 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:04,199 Speaker 11: wing againda in the form of news this morning?

Why not? 373 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 8: Because that's not an industry I feel comfortable talking about 374 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 8: or promoting or endorsing. Or I don't like that person. 375 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 8: I know that person and they have a bad reputation. 376 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 8: They're going to embarrass me with my listeners by providing 377 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 8: bad customer service. 378 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 4: I had to do this recently. 379 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 1: Okay, But. 380 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 8: But they want to be on your show.

So if you 391 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:56,360 Speaker 8: want to have someone pay a professional voice guy who 392 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 8: has a much better voice than me, mind you to say, 393 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 8: Joe Blow Company is wonderful. Here is their phone number. 394 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 8: You're welcome to do that. But you're not going to 395 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 8: get me to say it because I don't believe it. 396 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 8: I think the dude's a douchebag. Well, uh, can we 397 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 8: know you don't understand it's okay to say we can 398 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 8: both exist in the world but not agree on your 399 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 8: That's okay. We don't don't cry, don't whine, don't threaten. 400 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 8: This is what mature people used to do. 401 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 4: No, I choose not to do that. 402 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,239 Speaker 8: And by the same token, somebody says, hey, we need 403 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 8: to get together for lunch, and you don't see yourself 404 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 8: getting together for lunch because you're busy and you don't 405 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,640 Speaker 8: want to buy what they're selling, or you don't want 406 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,199 Speaker 8: to hire them, or you don't think that's a good 407 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 8: of It's okay to say no, thank you, but why 408 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 8: it doesn't matter. It's okay and you can say that 409 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 8: you don't have to No, I'm going to be at 410 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 8: my kid's rehearsal every day for the nextport ten years. Yeah, yeah, 411 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,640 Speaker 8: just tell the truth. It's okay to have a difficult conversation. 412 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 8: But the reason I do read emails is for this reason. 413 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 8: Rob Richard Taylor writes there are two candidates, but also 414 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 8: two elections. One candidate is running for student body president, 415 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 8: articulating the many accomplishments of his past student council activity, 416 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 8: academic achievements, and goals for the future. The other candidate 417 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:32,919 Speaker 8: is running for Homecoming queen, making friends, being loud, cutting 418 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 8: up in class, and has promised to deliver less homework 419 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 8: when elected. Two candidates, two different elections, but only room 420 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 8: for one to take office. That's why I read my emails, 421 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 8: because that's good, Vaughn, You've been waiting forever. The last 422 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 8: minute of the segment is all yours. I won't interrupt. 423 00:22:52,800 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 1: You're very patient, okay, yo, Well, I think you know 424 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 1: with Harris, she won't debate because she's benefiting by letting 425 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 1: Trump speak and exhaust his stances and you know, showing 426 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: his hand. And thereafter she'll get with her handlers and 427 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 1: deciding whether to counterpoint his message or to steal it, 428 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,199 Speaker 1: you know, in an effort to kind of neutralize him. 429 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 1: I know that's not a revelation, but that's an observation 430 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 1: that I'm sure that many of us have already made. 431 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 1: And also the inflation message that won't change the minds 432 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 1: of the poor because they're being supported financially by the 433 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: government and they can't hear it and they can't feel it, 434 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: you know, they're just not being affected. And another thing, 435 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 1: Biden went on stage doing one of the rallies that 436 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: he said, just like Santa Claus, you know, it's sort 437 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: of a mockery toward them. But anyway, I think his 438 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 1: best approach is to speak on her past records, the 439 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,679 Speaker 1: fingers they had done and did not do it. 440 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 4: Today the Michael Berry Show. 441 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 1: Me very mad. 442 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 4: She emailed back to tell me she will never be 443 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 4: listening again again. 444 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 8: So since the last time when you weren't listening and 445 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 8: you turned it off and I talk bad about you, 446 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 8: now you're even more mad that I've talked bad about 447 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 8: you on the show you had turned off. 448 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 4: What am I missing? 449 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 6: Me?

We mean, I understand right, 452 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:49,120 Speaker 8: you don't like the food at this restaurant. We've got 453 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 8: a line out the door two miles long, and you've 454 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 8: been sitting at the table and these people want to 455 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 8: sit down, and they do like our food. 456 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 4: I've said this before. There's no hard feelings if you 457 00:24:59,200 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 4: turn the show off. 458 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,359 Speaker 8: We have more listeners than we have bandwidth for, so 459 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 8: if I'm sure there's something riveting on another station, please 460 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 8: go over there. I'm not trying to be rude. People 461 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 8: are used to when they threaten. I will take my dollar, 462 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 8: I will take my attention. I will take whatever it 463 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 8: is you want from me, and I will rip it 464 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 8: away from you and I will go give it to 465 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,360 Speaker 8: someone else unless you beg me to come back. I'm 466 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 8: going to beg you. Not because I don't like you 467 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 8: or I want to fight with you. I just I 468 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 8: have other people to take care of and you're not 469 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 8: one of them. Please understand that. But now I'm really 470 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 8: mad because I wanted you to treat me like I 471 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 8: was important. 472 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 4: I know, well, no, bless your heart. I bet that 473 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 4: theme is consistent throughout the course of your life. 474 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 1: I really do. 475 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:42,920 Speaker 8: But you said to email you. Yeah, I didn't say 476 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 8: to email me and threaten to murder the president. I 477 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 8: didn't say to email me and insult my kids. I 478 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 8: didn't say to email me with some horrible, awful thing. 479 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 8: I would assume you knew the basic rules of engagement. 480 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 8: Clearly you don't, and we've parted ways. I would block her, 481 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,119 Speaker 8: but I'd like to hear the five more times she 482 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 8: emails me that she's no longer listening after not being listening. 483 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 4: You know what I would like to do. 484 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 8: A listener suggested this a great idea.
