We settled eight wars in eight months. I'm 37 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 3: now including this one. By the way, if that's okay. 38 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 3: They may say, well that was quick, because yesterday I 39 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 3: was saying seven, But now I can say eight. 40 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 2: The hostages are back. The hostages are back. 41 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 4: You know. 42 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 5: They say success has one thousand fathers, but failure. 43 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:46,919 Speaker 2: Is an orphan. 44 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 5: It's not just Democrats trying to take credit for President 45 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 5: Trump's historic achievement British Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson was on 46 00:02:55,080 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 5: Sky News when Trevor Phillips with Trevor Phillips when that 47 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 5: great Britain played a key role behind the scenes. You know, 48 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 5: if you go back to Balflo in nineteen forty eight, 49 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 5: the British have had a great influence within Israel and 50 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 5: a lot of mistakes that were made were British mistakes. 51 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 5: And none of us were at the meetings or on 52 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 5: the calls or part of the shuttle diplomacy with wit 53 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 5: cough in those guys. But everything that has emerged says 54 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 5: this was the power of personality of Trump to get 55 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 5: this done. So with that in mind, no, Bridget, you 56 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 5: don't get credit. 57 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 6: We have played a key role behind the scenes in 58 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 6: shaping this. It's right that we do so, because it's 59 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 6: in all of our interest, including our own national interest, 60 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 6: that we moved to a lasting piece in the region. 61 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 7: Well, when you say behind the scenes, like what I mean, 62 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 7: it seemed to everybody else in the world that this 63 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 7: has been done by Trump and the Israelis and her 64 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 7: mass What part. 65 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 2: Did we play? 66 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 6: These are complex matters of diplomacy that we are involved in, 67 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 6: but we do welcome and recognize the critical rule that 68 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 6: the American government played in moving us to this point. 69 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 6: What matters now, of course, is how we move beyond 70 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 6: this immediate to the wall, moving towards that lasting piece 71 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 6: that we all want to see. That is why we 72 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 6: recognized a Palestinian state. Why alongside that were committed to 73 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 6: making sure that a safe and secure Israel endurers. 74 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 7: The reason I asked us is because, as you say, 75 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,799 Speaker 7: we recognize a Palestinian state, Marco Rubio, the sexorist state, 76 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 7: said that actually made it more difficult to learn the deal. 77 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 7: What's really going on here? I mean, was that some 78 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 7: sort of clever, strategic double bluff. I mean the Americans 79 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 7: say we made it more difficult. You were saying that 80 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 7: we played this cleep art. 81 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 6: What's true, Well, we believed as a government that it 82 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 6: was the right thing to do to recognize the Palestinian 83 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 6: state because of the way in which the conflict had 84 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 6: developed over the last two years, that if that hadn't happened, 85 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 6: we would be in a position where there would no 86 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 6: longer be that viable option of a Palestinian. 87 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 2: But were furious with us. The Americans said that we 88 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 2: actually handled the deal. 89 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 7: What was the positive role that we played. 90 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 6: It was the right thing to do, and we will 91 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 6: always act as a government in that manner. I do 92 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 6: obviously understand that not everyone agrees with that decision, but 93 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,679 Speaker 6: given the scale of the conflict and what needed to happen, 94 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 6: we felt it was the right thing to do to 95 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 6: recognize that Palestinian state. 96 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 2: But I should also. 97 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 6: Just emphasize that the reason this conflict, of course, this 98 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 6: phase of the conflict has begun or began, was following 99 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 6: the appalling events, the appalling atrocities of the seventh of October, 100 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 6: and as we over the course of the next twenty 101 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 6: four hours, what we all want to see are as 102 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 6: many hostages as possible released home to their families. 103 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,799 Speaker 5: Okay, so now you're falling back on canards. Well, let'sn't 104 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 5: worry about who gets credit. 105 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 2: Let's just let's let's just let's let's just get the 106 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 2: hostages home. 107 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 5: But what Trevor Phillips was bringing up there was the 108 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 5: comments by Secretary of State US Secretary of State Marco 109 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 5: Rubio where he said Britain and France caused the collapse 110 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 5: of the ceasefire talks. They were in the back throwing 111 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 5: a monkey wrench in this process. 112 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 2: You know, when you've got multilateral. 113 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 5: Negotiations going on like this, the last thing you need 114 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 5: is some jackass like the French or UK or both 115 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 5: together undermining what's happening. And if you don't think people 116 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 5: would let this war continue for the soul's sake of 117 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 5: them one need to get credit, then you don't understand 118 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 5: that sometimes police officers or police agencies will will fail 119 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 5: to catch a bad guy because they're arguing over which department, 120 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 5: which agency is going to get credit. 121 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 2: It does happen. That's not just in the movies. 122 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 8: Have you noticed that the talks with mos fell apart 123 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 8: on the day Macrone made the unilateral decision that he's 124 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 8: going to recognize the Palestinian state, And then you have 125 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 8: other people come forward, other countries say, well, there's not 126 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 8: a ceasefire by September, we're going to recognize the Palistin state. 127 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 2: Well Goamjamas. 128 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 8: I basically concluded, let's not do a cease fire right 129 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 8: because we can be rewarded and we can claim it 130 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 8: as a victory. So those messages, while largely symbolic in 131 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 8: their minds, actually have made it harder to get peace 132 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 8: and harder to achieve a deal with as. 133 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 5: They feel emboldn flab it Michael Berry Houston as a 134 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 5: meth labit. 135 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 2: So while President. 136 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 5: Trump leads the world at a conference bringing peace to 137 00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 5: the Middle East, as he is in Egypt, what are 138 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 5: the Democrats doing the Schumer shut down? We start with 139 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 5: Congressman Gwynn Moore on CNN where she says that you 140 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 5: ready for this. So they've told us in the last 141 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 5: week they don't know who Antifa is. Oh really, okay, Now, 142 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 5: Republicans own most of the media. Well that's interesting. I 143 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 5: didn't know that. 144 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 2: You know, we do. Well. 145 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 9: I appreciate CNN, but I'll tell you. You know, Republicans own 146 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 9: most of the media. 147 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 2: They control Fox News and X or Meta whatever you 148 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 2: call it. 149 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 9: You know, right now the president has a purchase or 150 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 9: allowed his allies to purchase TikTok. 151 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 2: We we are hard pressed to get our message out. 152 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 5: Oh my, you said that with a straight vease. Hmm, 153 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 5: even under that fashion fair makeup. I could tell you 154 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 5: were blushing.

You don't have to compete to give 180 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 5: it to get it, We'll just give it to you. 181 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 5: And you know why because we get rich off of it. 182 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,199 Speaker 5: So what do we get for chilanos a year to 183 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 5: the US military? Do we get anything in return? We 184 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 5: get some enhanced stock portfolios. And I'll give you a 185 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 5: great example. 186 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 13: And when Joe Biden gave our military or excuse me, 187 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,599 Speaker 13: our missile defense system. You know I haven't voted for 188 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,319 Speaker 13: a penny for your Crain. I'm proud of that. It's 189 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 13: not my dad gum war. I'm not sending my eighteen 190 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,719 Speaker 13: year old daughter to a country that most members of 191 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 13: connors couldn't find on my dad gum globe. And so 192 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 13: you have we give them our our missile defense system, 193 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 13: and then we have to replanish ours, which we should. 194 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 13: We can't be left naked without any of that defense. 195 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,559 Speaker 13: And guess what some of those contractors we described get 196 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 13: a multi multi billion with a B dollar no big contract. 197 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 13: And who do you think has bought stock in that 198 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 13: in that company? Members of Congress two weeks prior to 199 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 13: the President making that official notice. And and you see 200 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 13: it time and time again, and you honestly believe members 201 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 13: of Congress are making the time and see even met 202 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 13: some of these guys. I mean they don't. I can't 203 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 13: come in out of the ring some of them. Yeah, 204 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,319 Speaker 13: I mean I'm guilty of as well. But yeah, a 205 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 13: lot of really damaged return on their five and six 206 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 13: hundred percent return on the investment. 207 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 2: And in war is great for business. 208 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 13: It's great for it's great for the economy, but it's 209 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 13: not good for I don't think it's good for ourselves. 210 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 14: Wouldn't. No, No, there's nothing worse. Killing people is not good. 211 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,199 Speaker 14: I know that's a controversial statement. But why is it? 212 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 14: Why is it impossible? Is to ban stock trading for 213 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 14: members of Congress. 214 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 2: That's a great idea. I have the bill to do it. 215 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 13: And that's why, you know, we have a bipartisan group 216 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 13: began myself prior Paul and never get her name right, 217 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 13: Fortez and me and Ship Roy and a bunch of others. 218 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 13: You know, we've got a we've got a bill, but 219 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 13: it's not going anywhere. Why because too many members of Congress. 220 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 13: I mean we were told by leadership that you know, 221 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 13: these these guys can't afford, can't afford to be here. 222 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 13: You know what if you can't afford to be in 223 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 13: Congress and go get another dad gum job. 224 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 5: That line comes from Dan Crenshaw, Republican from the Houston area, 225 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 5: who has said that all these restrictions, if they were 226 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 5: to impose these restrictions on trading stock, then wouldn't be 227 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 5: able to survive. They make almost two hundred thousand dollars. 228 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 5: Are you kidding me? Why did you run for the job? 229 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 5: You know what it pays. You don't need to make 230 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 5: extra money trading on inside information. You don't need to 231 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 5: It's wrong. By the way, Tucker Carlson has an interview 232 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 5: with the fellow named Steve Toath t o t h 233 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 5: who's a state rep. He's a constitutionalist, Tea party guy, 234 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 5: maga guy, and Toat's got a real shot. He announced 235 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,319 Speaker 5: today that he raised three hundred thousand dollars in the 236 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 5: first three months. He's not going to have more money 237 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 5: than Crenshaw. Crenshaw's going to have all the establishment money. 238 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 5: But tothe is a real grassroots guy and his interview 239 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 5: with Tucker Carlson is really really good. 240 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 2: I encourage you to watch it. 241 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 5: And then he did an interview with the guy who 242 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 5: created the Pelosi Stop tracker, and he pointed out that 243 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 5: the only person that made more money trading stocks as 244 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,559 Speaker 5: a percentage of what they had invested in Dan Crenshaw 245 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 5: was Nancy. 246 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 2: Pelosi, and he lays it all out. 247 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 5: Tucker interviewed him as well, Tucker really really really doesn't 248 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 5: like Dan Crenshaw, and he's making reference to some things 249 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 5: that he has not spoken of, but he's encouraging people 250 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 5: by saying that to dig into what exactly is going 251 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 5: on with Crenshaw. And I wouldn't be shocked if somebody 252 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 5: doesn't do it. I would not be shocked if somebody 253 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:00,199 Speaker 5: doesn't do it. 254 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 2: But both of those. 255 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 5: Interviews about Prinshaw with Tucker Cralson are worth your time. 256 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 2: They are, for certain worth your time. 257 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 5: Used to love it when Rush would play montages of 258 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 5: the left media reading the Democrat talking points. Well credit 259 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 5: Tom Elliott for this montage of the Democrats. 260 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 2: Saying, Oh, I don't I don't know who Antifa is. 261 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 2: There's no Antifa. This is an entirely imaginary organization. There 262 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 2: is not an Antifa, like I don't even know what 263 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 2: antifa is. There is no group. 264 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 6: It's not even like for our right groups like the 265 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 6: Proud Boys and oath Keepers. Compared to right wing extremists, 266 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 6: Antifa linked violence is rare. And limited. 267 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 2: It isn't an organization. 268 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: It is a it is in many ways mythology. 269 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 11: It's not like the Proud Boys or the Oath Keepers, 270 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 11: you know, the defined terrorist organizations with leadership that let 271 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 11: that you know, leads violence. 272 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 2: It's not a highly organized movement. It's a moniker. 273 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 5: It's it's it's it's not a unified group like the 274 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 5: Proud Boys are things. 275 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 15: Like Antifa are things that are thought up. 276 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 10: It's all in the guise of going after Antifa, which 277 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 10: is nothing. 278 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 2: There's no organization called Antifa. 279 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 8: Nobody's a number of Antifa because it doesn't exist. 280 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 1: They are just declaring into existence something that doesn't exist. 281 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 14: There is no Antifa organization, so maybe that's good for social. 282 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 2: Media, but it really has is non existent. 283 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 1: They exist on the Internet and chat rooms and in 284 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: four Chan and discord, in places like that where they 285 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: run discussion boards, trade tactics, documents, things like that, but 286 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: none of them are called Antifa. 287 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 13: With his finger on the pulse, the King of Ding 288 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 13: continues on the Michael Berry Show. 289 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 5: Fifty years ago, two day, something special happened in country music. 290 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 5: It was the debut of the Ace in the Hole band, 291 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 5: The Center for Texas music here in San Marcus, Texas 292 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 5: rites quote. On October thirteenth, nineteen seventy five, the Ace 293 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 5: in the Whole Band played at Cheatham Street Warehouse in 294 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 5: San Marcus for the first time. Originally called Stony Ridge, 295 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 5: the Ace in the Whole Band was comprised of college 296 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 5: students who attended Southwest Texas State University, which is now 297 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 5: known as Texas State University. After two band members graduated 298 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 5: in nineteen seventy five, the group was looking for a 299 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 5: new lead singer. 300 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 2: I love these stories. 301 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 5: They posted bulletins around the SWT campus before long, and 302 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 5: ag Sciences student named George Strait answered the call. And 303 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 5: the rest, as Paul Harvey would say, is his tree. Actually, 304 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 5: he would say, that's the rest of the story. Well, 305 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 5: but you get my point. The three Stony Ridge originals 306 00:16:55,880 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 5: Ron Cabal, Mike Day, and Terry Hall. I'm gets some 307 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 5: of these names wrong because I pride myself in knowing 308 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:07,199 Speaker 5: country musicians. But I don't know George's band, so it 309 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 5: might be Cable or might be Cabal. Along with drummer 310 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 5: Ted Stubblefield and George Strait started playing under their new 311 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 5: name Drummer Tony Tommy Foot joined at the end of 312 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 5: seventy five. Perhaps their most recent Their most frequent venue 313 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 5: was Cheatham Street Warehouse, only about a mile and a 314 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 5: half from the Southwest Texas State Campus, where they played 315 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 5: for the first time on this day in nineteen seventy five. 316 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 5: Cheatham Street owner Ken Finley, by the way, insert here 317 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 5: a legend in Texas live music venues, developed a close 318 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 5: relationship with George Strait and the band, even and the 319 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 5: band even becoming the first person to drive George Strait 320 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 5: to Nashville. They played at the venue nearly every week 321 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 5: until the early nineteen eighties. The band still back straight 322 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 5: to this day. That's a good story right there. It 323 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 5: was on this day in nineteen seventy four that renowned 324 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 5: television host Ed Sullivan died of esophageal cancer in New 325 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:12,679 Speaker 5: York City at the age of seventy three. One of 326 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:19,639 Speaker 5: the biggest moments in music and television history unfolded on 327 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 5: his program, The Ed Sullivan Show, when a new group 328 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 5: from Liverpool called The Beatles made their live US debut. 329 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:39,439 Speaker 5: But it's not my favorite Ed Sullivan Show moment. Mine 330 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 5: is the fact that if you ever go to Graceland, 331 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,920 Speaker 5: there's a whole feature on this. There's a whole set 332 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 5: of walls that tell the story when Elvis hit when 333 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 5: he made it fifty six. The period of time from 334 00:18:55,920 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 5: when nobody knew him until over half the population knew 335 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 5: him was less than a month. And in those days 336 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 5: you couldn't go viral the way you can now. You 337 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 5: didn't have you know, Twitter and TikTok and the ability 338 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 5: for one person to share with another person that changes everything. 339 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 5: But it's amazing to me, just absolutely amazing to me 340 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 5: how fast he shot through the stratosphere. And just before 341 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:38,159 Speaker 5: having him on, Ed Sulimon had declared internally that he 342 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 5: would never have him on. 343 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 2: He was not good. 344 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 5: Ed Sullivon was the gatekeeper of the Ed Sullivan show. 345 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:51,679 Speaker 5: He had all the power. And I can't remember the 346 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 5: exact story. It was like Dick Cavet or one of 347 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 5: his competitors some of you will know this had I 348 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 5: think it was Elvis. They had someone else on and 349 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 5: the ratings went through the roof, or maybe they had Elvis. 350 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 5: I can't remember exactly, but it's all there at Grayson. 351 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 5: Somebody can fact check me on this and give me 352 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 5: the correct answer. But Ed Sullivan had fallen behind in 353 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 5: the ratings war on this thing, and I think it 354 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 5: must have been Elvis doing another interview and that person's 355 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 5: ratings went up, and Ed Sullivan realized, this is bigger 356 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 5: than you, and if you want your ratings to be 357 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,199 Speaker 5: where they need to be, you're going to have to 358 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 5: put him on. And so if you will indulge me, 359 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 5: I know most folks tune in for politics. I like 360 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 5: to talk about things other than just politics. Russa always 361 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 5: had that battle or things show in your mind you 362 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 5: want to share.

My 395 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 5: sister's boyfriend bought tickets to see him in l A 396 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 5: a couple of months back. 397 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 2: On accident. 398 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 5: He thought he scored some really cheap seats to see 399 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,119 Speaker 5: the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I guess he didn't have 400 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 5: his reading glasses on when he ordered him. They loved 401 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 5: the show and thought they were fabulous. Well, you know 402 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 5: what was amazing is the almost the entire crowd. I 403 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 5: stood at the door to listen to people as they left, 404 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 5: and they were speaking with their Scottish brogue. 405 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 2: The Irish have a brogue. I don't know what you 406 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 2: call the Scottish a brogue. 407 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, and it was probably seventy five scotsman. So I 408 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 5: asked the general managers, what's going on with all these? U? No, 409 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:39,400 Speaker 5: what general managers? Steve Sayde's son Brad. I said, why 410 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:41,679 Speaker 5: aren't there all these Is this a Scottish private event? 411 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,400 Speaker 5: And he said no, he said, uh so, weirdest thing 412 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 5: I guess because there's so many people from Scotland working 413 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 5: for the oil companies here, which which makes sense. But 414 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 5: when there's a Scottish event they come. 415 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 2: Out for it. How about that? You just never know. 416 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 2: It's amazing to me how good you. 417 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 5: Get it running a business. When you run a business, 418 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 5: and if you don't, you go out of business. You know, 419 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 5: when you get to know people who who run a business, 420 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 5: I always like asking them questions because sometimes they stumble on 421 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 5: things and they never expected it and they go, WHOA, 422 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 5: well I got something here, Or sometimes they have this 423 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 5: great this would be me. Sometimes they have this great 424 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 5: idea and this is gonna kill and nobody's ever done it. 425 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 2: And it's an absolute bust. And you know, so there's that, 426 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 2: there's that too, and you just know this is going 427 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,399 Speaker 2: to be the one right here. 428 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 5: And man, that's why you get to where you don't 429 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,400 Speaker 5: even tell people, Hey, well I'm about. 430 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 2: To do right here. 431 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 5: It's really good to people are gonna be talking about 432 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 5: this because then it's a complete bust. Whereas if you 433 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 5: hadn't told anybody and ends up halfway successful, then you can, 434 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 5: you know, act like all shucks. I didn't even so 435 00:25:54,440 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 5: I took Crockett to Love book Kim and a couple 436 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,239 Speaker 5: of things I have to say about Lobbock because I've 437 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 5: never been there and we have a lot of listeners 438 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 5: on KFYO. Out of Lovebock went with a friend of 439 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 5: mine named Gary Peterson. He's a big donor to the school. 440 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 5: He grew up in Lubbock and he's very proud of Lubbock. 441 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 5: He took us to see his little modest home he 442 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 5: grew up in on thirty three eleven forty fourth Street. 443 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 5: Met him through Russell Leabara years ago. He is one 444 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:33,120 Speaker 5: of the three founders of a private equity firm called 445 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 5: en Cap, and they have funded a lot of oil 446 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 5: and gas dreams to fruition. 447 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 2: Over the years, he's done. 448 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 5: Very successful man, a very generous man, and he's very 449 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,199 Speaker 5: eager that Crockett go to his alma mater, which is 450 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 5: Texas Tech. He's given over fifty million dollars five zero 451 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 5: to the place, so he's pretty passionate about it. 452 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 2: So he said, let's just take him. 453 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 5: Up, and well, I didn't realize what he meant by 454 00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 5: show him around. We get there and he drives us 455 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 5: around the campus, drives us see his his the house 456 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 5: he grew up. And we drive to the old downtown 457 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 5: and you know, we get get a sense of the 458 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 5: of the place. And we checked him and stays a 459 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 5: little hotel called the Overton, which is right across and 460 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 5: you know Lubbock listeners in Lubbock have told me, you know, 461 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 5: you can see this guy for miles. There's all sorts 462 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 5: of jokes about how far you can see the sky 463 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 5: because there's no skyscrapers, no skyscrapers. So in Montana, Wyally, 464 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 5: they call it blue skycountry. It's a blue sky there. 465 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 5: It's beautiful. Actually, I kind of like it. I'm not 466 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 5: used to it, but I like it. And then we 467 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 5: start and he's a big donor to the team. There's 468 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 5: three of them, a guy named John Sellers, Cody Campbell, 469 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,360 Speaker 5: and Gary Peterson, and the three of them together put 470 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 5: thirty eight million dollars into NIL and they went out 471 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,959 Speaker 5: and bought the best players that you could buy in 472 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 5: the country through the transfer portal. 473 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 2: So there's no development time. 474 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 5: And these guys come in and they start contributing, and 475 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 5: they're all from all from major programs to start with. 476 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 2: And so the team is undefeated. They were ninth going 477 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 2: into the game. 478 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,159 Speaker 5: Of course they won, so they moved up in the 479 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,120 Speaker 5: rankings I think to six times. 480 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 2: I can't recall anyway. 481 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 5: So there are buildings named or parts of buildings named 482 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 5: after him, and we toured all that, got to have 483 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 5: lunch with the team, got to go in the locker 484 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 5: room before and after with the team, which is really 485 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 5: fun for me. But he's super fun for Crockett because 486 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 5: he's eighteen years old and these guys are a year 487 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 5: older than him, and you know, they're all grabbing him 488 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,719 Speaker 5: and excited and high five in him and you know, 489 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 5: roughing him up and you know, like you don't how 490 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 5: dogs in the dog partner.

A lot of them won't get 502 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 5: to that, but you can spend up to twenty point five. 503 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 5: You cannot spend a penny more. 504 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 15: Hard and fast unless unless, unless you were to hire 505 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 15: a kid to let's say I just make I'll just 506 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 15: pull a name out of a hat. 507 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 2: Let me just some random Now it's too random. Eric Dickerson. 508 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 5: Okay, Let's say let's say let's say you were to 509 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 5: bring Eric Dickerson in, and let's say you were to 510 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 5: own I don't know, car dealership, right, and let's say 511 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 5: you had a gold trans Am and and you know 512 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 5: you ered Dickerson sell some cars. 513 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 2: You just this got this random guy that I'm coming 514 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 2: up with. 515 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 5: You know, got goggles and everything, and the neck pad 516 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 5: and the real high step are real fast and on 517 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 5: the option and get to the corner. And yeah, but 518 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 5: let's just say, hypothetically, Eric Dickerson went to work for 519 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 5: your car dealership. Now you could, but Deloitte and Touche 520 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 5: has to review the deal and make make sure that 521 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 5: it looks like a real deal. Like you got to 522 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 5: really want Eric Dickerson to be a car salesman at 523 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 5: your dealership. So anyway, there's that little exception to the rule. 524 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 5: Do with that what you will. But anyway, I like 525 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:17,719 Speaker 5: when people have a chip on the shoulder and Texas 526 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 5: Tech has a chip on their shoulder. A and M 527 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,479 Speaker 5: is cocky because they're A and m UT is cocky 528 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,719 Speaker 5: because they're ut. But it's nice to see these guys 529 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 5: that are so eager to say, hey, we're at the 530 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 5: table now too. We're a top ten team about to 531 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 5: be a top five team if they went out, they're 532 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 5: going to make the playoffs. But they have a veterinary school. Now, 533 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 5: they have a medical school, now they have a law school. 534 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 5: Now they have a nursing school in El Paso, and 535 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 5: I got to tell you, I think that I think 536 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 5: there is a role for putting campuses for professional degrees 537 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 5: in the small communities of our state that don't have 538 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 5: all the resources. You know, you had to leave Orange 539 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 5: to get a job at that time to go to school. 540 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 5: There's a Lamar campus in Orange now or parts of 541 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 5: a campus. But I think there's something to be said 542 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 5: in these small towns considering how much of the money 543 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 5: that goes into it as taxpayer dollars to creating opportunities. 544 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 5: Because you talk about economic incentives, the hospitals, the the. 545 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,479 Speaker 2: Veterinarian We needed another veterinary school. 546 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 5: It was impossible to get into A and M or Auburn, 547 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 5: and we needed more veterinarians. 548 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 2: I think it's a good thing. A and M fought 549 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 2: them on that. 550 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 5: But anyway, for those of you who have kids to 551 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 5: find the school, keep your keep your eye out on 552 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 5: Texas Tech. 553 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 2: I'm very impressed.
