Speaker 2: because really I'm working today. Y'all are sheer steam only that's.
Speaker 3: All right, you'll be We'll take your steam and your smoke.
Speaker 3: That's funny enough. All right, let's start at the top.
Speaker 3: We'll do our deaths. I am very devastated. Mookast Junior. Yes,
Speaker 3: I can't believe it. I keep thinking of what comes
Speaker 3: out of Texas Flame, Seers and Queers.
Speaker 2: That was his.
Speaker 3: Office iner, A gentleman line, you know what, years ago.
Speaker 2: I remember him from that movie, but there are two
Speaker 2: other movies that I remember shows that I remember him from.
Speaker 2: He played on Good Times as Florida's brother and he
Speaker 2: was going to fight, and then he played on the Jeffersons.
Speaker 2: What he was trying to hit on we yeap and
Speaker 2: and I loved him in the office and a gentleman
Speaker 2: with that was he was greater than that. He won't
Speaker 2: ask her for that, but I really remember him those
Speaker 2: two rows. But he was. And I him from Roots
Speaker 2: where he played the fabulous Yeah, yeah, yeah, I loved him.
Speaker 3: Great actor.
Speaker 2: He had a long, very successful career. And from all
Speaker 2: the reviews that I've read, the people have been putting
Speaker 2: up stuff on their pages, big celebrities every day. He
Speaker 2: was a very well respected and loved man. So prayers
Speaker 2: to Averages family it is.
Speaker 3: We had a few others. The next gent I have
Speaker 3: to say I didn't know him, Chance per Deermo. He
Speaker 3: was He had a motorcycle accident. He died young. He
Speaker 3: was in something called Stars in JEVV and Chilling Adventures
Speaker 3: of Sabrina. Not either one of those I saw.
Speaker 2: So I don't know him, but.
Speaker 3: God bless we had a Vonte Davis. Davis, he died
Speaker 3: at thirty five. He was a former NFL star. And
Speaker 3: then one that really should be celebrated is mister Louke Conter.
Speaker 3: He was the last survivor of the USS Arizona in
Speaker 3: Pearl Harbor. He dies a one hundred and two. Can
Speaker 3: you imagine? God bless him so that those were our deaths.
Speaker 3: Some older news but still pertinent. Alice Murdoch got another
Speaker 3: forty years. I don't know, after you have two life sentences,
Speaker 3: I'm given to you if you actually need any any
Speaker 3: additional time. But he blamed his addiction. It was the
Speaker 3: financial crimes, and he blamed he blamed his addiction on that.
Speaker 3: I guess you coulda blame something.
Speaker 2: So that's a question I have because I know other
Speaker 2: people are thinking the same thing. I'm thinking so they
Speaker 2: say you got two life, bysinessis plus forty years. So
Speaker 2: even after I'm dead, you go keep me in there
Speaker 2: calling for forty more years. That's it.
Speaker 3: That's it. And remember he's appealing the other So here's
Speaker 3: I don't know if you want to call it good news.
Speaker 3: He's appealing the deaths right for the wife and the
Speaker 3: san you know, he's appealing the murders. But he's already
Speaker 3: got forty years on this one, which is going to
Speaker 3: be he's our age. I don't know if we're going
Speaker 3: to make we're going to make a hundred maybe, I
Speaker 3: don't know. So he's already in jail. Anyway, even if
Speaker 3: he got off on those, he's still in jail. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that's the truth. They're just making sure that you know,
Speaker 3: if you're dead, they're going to make sure you're really dead.
Speaker 2: I never understood that though. When they said, well, you
Speaker 2: got two life, said says plus twenty years. Well, what's
Speaker 2: the twenty years? I will send the call fin the jail? Two?
Speaker 2: I know, I know.
Speaker 3: But you know, in some in some states, if it's
Speaker 3: not a federal crime, in some states, you get you
Speaker 3: get a life sentence, but you could get out in
Speaker 3: twenty eight years or something.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: So you'd have to serve if their concurrence, if they're
Speaker 3: back to back, then you're not getting out at all.
Speaker 3: If they're served simultaneously. I don't know if that ever
Speaker 3: actually had.
Speaker 2: I don't know. He had a lot of He had
Speaker 2: a lot of people to come out against him. I
Speaker 2: don't know if he's going to get that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. Well, we're gonna so he's in.
Speaker 3: He's so he's in a little bit more skinny as
Speaker 3: a rail. The clothes that he had on, from the
Speaker 3: few pictures that they put out, it looked like he
Speaker 3: got his daddy's clothes when he was a little kid.
Speaker 3: So I don't know. His hair is grown backup, but
Speaker 3: I don't think presents being all that good to him.
Speaker 3: It is April is autism Autism Awareness months, so we're
Speaker 3: just it, yay, celebrate everybody. Oh what else is going on?
Speaker 3: That January sixth rioter Taylor James, Oh god, his last
Speaker 3: name is Johanticus. He's Washington State man. He got seven
Speaker 3: years for orchestrating. He was the guy that was on
Speaker 3: the orchestrating the the we're not calling it an insurrection.
Speaker 3: I don't know what we're calling it. He was the
Speaker 3: one that was on the blowhorn, you know, having them
Speaker 3: attack the police. So he actually, yeah, he actually got
Speaker 3: seven years, which was kind of it's kind of good.
Speaker 3: I don't know if they're what they're calling it them.
Speaker 2: Well, if the Orange Man wins, he said, he's gonna
Speaker 2: apply to all of the j R he is.
Speaker 3: I know, God forbid, I don't even like putting that
Speaker 3: out there. But because they didn't do anything, what it
Speaker 3: wasn't It wasn't an insurrection, even if it was a rioter,
Speaker 3: So you just said the right word. It was one
Speaker 3: of the worst looking riots. They should be getting it
Speaker 3: for that. And to be saying, you know, pushing forward
Speaker 3: and hurting a police officer on purpose that wasn't a
Speaker 3: picnic or whatever. They were trying to blows smoke up
Speaker 3: our rear ends.
Speaker 2: I hope not a man. Good God, oh god, I
Speaker 2: don't need it.
Speaker 3: I got enough up there, for the love of us.
Speaker 3: It might give me a Brazilian look, though, if I
Speaker 3: had a little lift those cheeks up. Have you been
Speaker 3: Everything all over the news is about the eclipse? Are
Speaker 3: you going to see it? Out there? Is California a
Speaker 3: good place to watch the eclipse that's coming.
Speaker 2: I think it's more on the East coast, but I'm
Speaker 2: going to watch it on the news, but I'm going
Speaker 2: to stay home. I'm gonna put me a pot or
Speaker 2: something on by me. I think I'm going to stay
Speaker 2: home because it's not even that I think that the
Speaker 2: actual eclipse is going to cause people to act crazy.
Speaker 2: But I do know the move has a lot of power.
Speaker 2: I think because the media keep pushing, keeps pushing that
Speaker 2: people are going to act crazy, that people putting in
Speaker 2: their psyche that you have to act crazy and then
Speaker 2: blame it on the eclipse. I'm telling you, I think
Speaker 2: that's some bs, you know what.
Speaker 3: The only things that I'm thinking about it. I did
Speaker 3: hear them say, but but they're talking about I don't know,
Speaker 3: somebody out in war Gun it was some big point
Speaker 3: in Oregon, and I'm like, I thought it was over
Speaker 3: this side, but who knows. We're having also some weather challenges,
Speaker 3: so people are trying to think of because here on
Speaker 3: the East Coast the weather has been crazy and it's
Speaker 3: rainy and it's super dark, and I don't know if
Speaker 3: the clouds will be covering it. I don't know when
Speaker 3: they're talking people going crazy, if they're taking into effect
Speaker 3: that like looting and stuff. If it's pitch black and
Speaker 3: you can't see a whole hell of a lot, maybe
Speaker 3: that's what they're talking about. But I do think the moon.
Speaker 3: My family, my mother is a nuts Every single time
Speaker 3: there's a whole moon, I could almost you know, I
Speaker 3: hang my hat on it. When she gets a little
Speaker 3: out there, she's getting a little extra grouchy.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm I'm a cancer. So I know that the
Speaker 2: moon has power. But the way they put it out,
Speaker 2: I think that they're planting seas in people's heads so
Speaker 2: that when they do do something crazy, they have a
Speaker 2: scapegoat to say over the idea because of the solar
Speaker 2: eclips I'm like, long.
Speaker 3: As they don't go to court saying that when when
Speaker 3: they get caught for doing whatever the hell they're going
Speaker 3: to do, I don't want them to do it. It'll
Speaker 3: be it'll be interesting. I mean, we've had all sorts
Speaker 3: of so we would talk to just a second about
Speaker 3: it being dark and yuckie. We've had tremendous weather. You
Speaker 3: started having it out in Chicago while you were there, Uh,
Speaker 3: and it kind of came right across to us. We
Speaker 3: had Hampshire and Vermont here on the East coast. There's
Speaker 3: so many outages that are going on from a severe storm,
Speaker 3: and then New York and New Jersey today four point
Speaker 3: eight earthquake. Can you imagine, and around six tonight a
Speaker 3: four point zero after shock. I wouldn't even know what
Speaker 3: the hell hit me, Bobby.
Speaker 2: When I heard the New York had an earthquake, I
Speaker 2: was like, well, wait a minute, now, wait a minutegga.
Speaker 3: I was in Boston. I wasn't in New York, so
Speaker 3: it wasn't me walking around.
Speaker 2: But in my but in my whole life, I can
Speaker 2: never remember New York cabnet earth.
Speaker 3: No. They've been talking for years about you know, the
Speaker 3: plates or whatever. I can't even think of the express
Speaker 3: that they use, you know, the ecologist and whatnot. That
Speaker 3: we'd be getting something that will be coming to the
Speaker 3: side of the country and it will be you know,
Speaker 3: like or shattering because we haven't had it in a
Speaker 3: long something. Something's going to shift and it's going to
Speaker 3: make it happen. I hope this isn't like the start
Speaker 3: of anything.
Speaker 2: I couldn't imagine a New York have a seven or
Speaker 2: eight point earthquake where all those skyscrapers, those skyscrapers are
Speaker 2: well sixty seventy storys up until the sky and even higher.
Speaker 3: I can't even imagine they had a little clip. It
Speaker 3: was actually hysterical.
Speaker 2: Al Roker.
Speaker 3: They must tape. They must tape when they have, like,
Speaker 3: you know, any type of meeting when people are getting
Speaker 3: together with ideas and whatnot. And they had the camera
Speaker 3: on him and all of a sudden, everything start shift.
Speaker 3: He's like, oh my, like he was right in there.
Speaker 3: I said, leave it to Al Roker, the weatherman, to
Speaker 3: actually be caught on you know, caught on tape, and
Speaker 3: to be able to discuss and describe it to everybody,
Speaker 3: you know. And immediately he they you know, he went
Speaker 3: to whatever app to see that it was at an earthquake.
Speaker 3: He's like, I don't know what just happened, but cool
Speaker 3: as a cucumber. I would have been screaming from the rafters.
Speaker 2: Well, the scariest part, Bobby, is that those buildings are
Speaker 2: so close to each other. It would be a dominal effect.
Speaker 3: That's the truth. I mean, that would anybody in the city.
Speaker 3: It's they ever had, really, if we ever did have
Speaker 3: a big earthquake on this side of the country. That
Speaker 3: would You're exactly right. I don't even know. The death
Speaker 3: rate would be unfathomable, you know, it really would, and
Speaker 3: the mess, you know, the mess would be they would
Speaker 3: be wicked. But everybody is okay. So far, they haven't
Speaker 3: come out with anybody that anybody's that injured or died
Speaker 3: or so fingers, fingers and toast crust. And let me
Speaker 3: tell you, I was happy when I was reading this
Speaker 3: next story that I know that you were out in
Speaker 3: Chicago there was a big money heisted la over the weekend.
Speaker 2: Well I should have been here, should I know?
Speaker 3: Thirty million dollars was stolen from a money storage facility.
Speaker 3: They don't have any information, you know, other than that
Speaker 3: they're kind of they're instigating, but they think it's it's
Speaker 3: somebody that's super sophisticated. This wasn't like, you know, Bob
Speaker 3: and Lou went down and put pulled their pulled their
Speaker 3: ski hats over their faces and went in. They think
Speaker 3: it was a pretty sophisticated heist.
Speaker 2: So wait a minute, it was thirty million cash? Yeah, ooh,
Speaker 2: what was that? Oh?
Speaker 3: I was That's what I'm saying you were in Chicago,
Speaker 3: so I know it wasn't you.
Speaker 2: My friend thirty? Okay, that's almost better than the power
Speaker 2: ball tomorrow.
Speaker 3: Can you imagine? But the only thing is when they
Speaker 3: don't they mark doesn't every single bill get accounted for
Speaker 3: with the serial numbers and stuff like, how do you
Speaker 3: spend that kind of money? How do you liquidate it?
Speaker 2: I'm sure they have ways Byriki I I'm sure too.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they probably in another country, you know, go and
Speaker 3: spend because who's over who's over? And you know the
Speaker 3: UK looking at serial numbers of America.
Speaker 2: They don't need to go to another country, can go
Speaker 2: to Florida. I'm sure he can't big deals, baby.
Speaker 3: I know, artist to god, Hey, who knows. I'm dying
Speaker 3: to see who it is now that it could be
Speaker 3: paid for some of these legal fees.
Speaker 2: We'll have to see all that.
Speaker 3: Today. I noticed that the President I didn't get to
Speaker 3: listen to him. I taped it. He was in Baltimore
Speaker 3: for the bridge collapse. I I know that from the
Speaker 3: pieces that came out to us that he's very supportive.
Speaker 3: They are on track to get that cleaned out by
Speaker 3: May so that other boats can come in. We talked
Speaker 3: about it last time on how what a really viable
Speaker 3: port that is and it's really important to the economy
Speaker 3: on the East Coast. So hopefully they'll have that done.
Speaker 3: They're hoping. They're still missing four of the of the
Speaker 3: crew member crew members that were fixing the roads above.
Speaker 3: I guess President Biden spoke to their their families, which
Speaker 3: I think is which I thought was lovely.
Speaker 2: So Biden had a pretty Biden had a pretty dope
Speaker 2: week though, because Biden had a fun raised last week
Speaker 2: where he raised a gang of by yes he did.
Speaker 2: And then the economy is looking good up under Biden.
Speaker 2: So Biden has had a good week, and but they
Speaker 2: don't talk about that, but they want to talk about
Speaker 2: the bird flu on his watch, and they want to
Speaker 2: talk about oh why not this egg?
Speaker 3: Egg prices are up. Yeah, he had. We had three
Speaker 3: hundred and three thousand jobs that were added, which is
Speaker 3: up from two seventy in February. And I know that
Speaker 3: they had they said a lot of people I think
Speaker 3: it was sixty thousand had lost their jobs throughout the country.
Speaker 3: But there's plenty of other ones to pick it up.
Speaker 3: The stock market was at an all time high last Thursday.
Speaker 3: We have thirty eight consecutive months of job growth. We
Speaker 3: do have the bird flu, which is egg prices. Buckle up, everybody.
Speaker 3: You might have to get the egg substitute because until
Speaker 3: they get that sorted, and it's more the jumbo eggs,
Speaker 3: so maybe you'll have to get smaller eggs, is what
Speaker 3: we'll do. But things are for Biden Noman's talk about it,
Speaker 3: but it's they're they're looking okay. Who's not looking okay?
Speaker 3: Who had a really rough week? Was our friend President Trump?
Speaker 2: He hadn't do it. Don't do that.
Speaker 3: I'm putting it out to the to everybody. Not my friend,
Speaker 3: but he was my former president. I will say that
Speaker 3: he had three cases that he tried to get shut
Speaker 3: down and he struck out on all three. One he
Speaker 3: was trying with Georgia to get the free speech. The
Speaker 3: judge that absolutely not. You know, he rejected it for
Speaker 3: him and the co defendants. There is no free speech
Speaker 3: where you know, when you're trying to Oscar governor to
Speaker 3: give you fined eleven thousand votes. A Leen Canon. I
Speaker 3: always want to say Connor, but it's canon. Yeah, he
Speaker 3: actually put her in and she rejected his bid to
Speaker 3: for the documents that it was. It was covet under
Speaker 3: Presidential Records Act. She didn't shut the door completely on that.
Speaker 3: She said, if it ends up going to a jury trial,
Speaker 3: that he could bring that up again. But no, he
Speaker 3: didn't get his ways that way. And then the last
Speaker 3: one was the New York City case. He was looking
Speaker 3: to get immunity on that and the hush money case,
Speaker 3: and the judge said that paying hush money to a
Speaker 3: prostitute is not covered under presidential immunity. It wasn't. It
Speaker 3: wasn't one of his tasks or one of his jobs.
Speaker 3: So no, that wasn't going to happen either.
Speaker 2: First of all, Stormy Daniels was not a prostitute. She
Speaker 2: was a porn star. But when she went off with
Speaker 2: that right amount of money, she became you know, it
Speaker 2: was just a business transaction. I'm never gone because I
Speaker 2: don't like that they call her prostitute. She was an
Speaker 2: admitted open porn star, living her life like it was gold.
Speaker 2: And he made the offer. The offer was sweet. Listen,
Speaker 2: and I'm not saying this there's no read because I
Speaker 2: liked me some Stormy Daniels, but I know some beautiful
Speaker 2: white woman one hundred twenty five thousand dollars Ony Daniels
Speaker 2: about two fifty at bed, maybe a good three hundred.
Speaker 2: But I like her and I don't like them calling
Speaker 2: her prosecute because she was she was a born star admediately.
Speaker 2: Second of all, you know, do you find this strange,
Speaker 2: boby that a some kind of crazy disease always comes
Speaker 2: out on a voting year. It really is.
Speaker 3: It's I mean, yeah, and what I really because the
Speaker 3: people who are going to pay the most is going
Speaker 3: to be the people who are going to vote that
Speaker 3: are going to complain. So I agree. I mean, we
Speaker 3: were already we're already even bitching about eggs throughout COVID.
Speaker 3: We finally got them to come down to our normal
Speaker 3: parts again, and here they're going to go back up.
Speaker 3: I might be vegan. How about you.
Speaker 2: No, I love eggs. I'm gonna have to start stealing. Look,
Speaker 2: I mean give them a different way.
Speaker 3: Oh you have to get a chicken, chicken in your
Speaker 3: own backyard and they'll be healthy. Of course the dogs
Speaker 3: might not like that, I.
Speaker 2: Thought, unless it unless it's here real that the chicken
Speaker 2: from Jack and the beanstalk and the bitch they go,
Speaker 2: she ain't come up in here.
Speaker 3: And there's something about those. My cousin has eggs, and
Speaker 3: there's something about the different colors, because you know, you
Speaker 3: have different different types of birds have different kinds of eggs.
Speaker 3: I don't know. Matthew Stewart always used to bring them out,
Speaker 3: and when I see a blue egg, it just thank
Speaker 3: you anyway, And they're probably delicious. It's me. I'm a waco.
Speaker 3: I need them in a little cardboard carton, and I
Speaker 3: like them all the same color, in the same shape,
Speaker 3: and I don't want to see any bird poop on it.
Speaker 3: You're going to wash that off? Yeah, not for Bobby.
Speaker 3: Did you see? I almost died with this the one
Speaker 3: thing that I was I don't know why I'm going
Speaker 3: to say I'm disappointed with Trump because I'm always disappointed
Speaker 3: with them. But he reposted and I can't believe that
Speaker 3: the Secret Service wouldn't come and spank his hand. He
Speaker 3: reposted some sort of tweet or whatever with President Biden
Speaker 3: hog tied in the back of a on the back
Speaker 3: of a pickup truck. Did you see that? And I
Speaker 3: thought it's not the most it's tasteless. Fine, you'll see it.
Speaker 3: There's memes all over the place, there's this pickup truck
Speaker 3: that has a million different flags hanging off of it,
Speaker 3: and somebody did one of those wraps you know how
Speaker 3: they put like usually for advertisements on a on trucks,
Speaker 3: they'll put you know, you know, Bob's plumbing or something.
Speaker 3: Instead they had obviously it was it was a fabricated
Speaker 3: image of President Biden laying down in the back of
Speaker 3: the truck with his hands, his mouth gagged, his hands tied,
Speaker 3: his feet tied. And I just thought that was I
Speaker 3: thought it was tasteless. Never mind for a former president
Speaker 3: and somebody who's running to be president to repost.
Speaker 2: Well, you said faceless. You do know you do remember
Speaker 2: who put it up there? Who shared it? Right? I know?
Speaker 3: That's just I mean, keep his mouth shut with the
Speaker 3: gag order, you know, imagine insulting a judge on one
Speaker 3: of your trades, one of your cases, their daughter. He
Speaker 3: kind of even I shouldn't be surprised with that. But
Speaker 3: what I was surprised with is that he did come
Speaker 3: up with one hundred and seventy five million dollars ball loan.
Speaker 2: But now it's being challenged by Letitia James. It became
Speaker 2: from a reputable company I saw that everything, everything that
Speaker 2: he does now is in question.
Speaker 3: And he did that, so everybody's what I don't like
Speaker 3: about it. In Latitia, Jens has the right to do it,
Speaker 3: but I am so sick of his martyrdom and his persecution.
Speaker 3: You know, becomes a crazy He's being persecuted, his complex,
Speaker 3: and I feel like this just adds to it, you know,
Speaker 3: like I'd rather get down and I don't want to
Speaker 3: hold up any trial over the Bondie came up with,
Speaker 3: like let's just keep pushing forward Letitia. You know, it's
Speaker 3: part of me feels that way because if they if
Speaker 3: then if then that holds off that trial and then
Speaker 3: he gets to appeal her, her her investigation or what
Speaker 3: you know, like it's never going to be over. I'm
Speaker 3: just I'm just done with them. I'm done with them.
Speaker 3: In the fact that he's selling bibles is when he
Speaker 3: probably has never read one in his life. It's a
Speaker 3: little The only other thing I saw that he's probably
Speaker 3: boohooling about is truth social his his streaming platform was
Speaker 3: put up and his social media platform excuse me. And
Speaker 3: originally the stock was going up and then it plummeted
Speaker 3: and so it dropped his net worth by about a
Speaker 3: billion dollars. And I'm sure somehow that's President Biden's felt too.
Speaker 2: They had already put out on the media as soon
Speaker 2: as he did that, oh he's making money, hand of
Speaker 2: a fist, right, because he wanted to use that.
Speaker 3: That's right, you're exactly right. He wanted to be his Yeah, right,
Speaker 3: I think maybe two, let's be let's be fair. I
Speaker 3: think it was two, not more than three.
Speaker 2: Well, here's my question by him, ghost sneakers and Bibles
Speaker 2: that you want you to run to.
Speaker 3: Jesus maybe or run away? Honest to God, it's something.
Speaker 3: It's just it's hysterical. He's going to make America pray again.
Speaker 3: And I want to say, oh, how the Mighty have fallen?
Speaker 3: But of course he would twist that like the fact
Speaker 3: that he can't even look himself and see this is
Speaker 3: so unsanely. Could you imagine President Obama or even George
Speaker 3: Bush outselling a Bible on whatever, probably on cheots social
Speaker 3: I just can't even know. It's it's just kind of
Speaker 3: again tasteless. Something else is tasteless is that House Republicans
Speaker 3: are trying to rename the Dallas Airport after Trump, but
Speaker 3: the Democrats came back and want to have him name
Speaker 3: a prison, a federal prison down in Miami instead. But
Speaker 3: I'm like, what about poor Dallas. He gets wiped out.
Speaker 2: He needs to be careful if they name a prison
Speaker 2: after him.
Speaker 3: Please, he might he might be able to select that
Speaker 3: that's where he wants to go if he was ever
Speaker 3: if he was ever convicted.
Speaker 2: I know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: And did you see I got this was funny? Kelly
Speaker 3: and Conway, Oh, another name that just makes me want
Speaker 3: to Her ex husband actually gave the highest legal amount
Speaker 3: of money nine hundred twenty nine six hundred dollars to
Speaker 3: Biden's victory fund. George Conway. You know, he reminded me
Speaker 3: of Jimmy Glick. Remember that that Martin Shore character. That's
Speaker 3: what he kind of looks like. A dark here, Jimmy Glick.
Speaker 3: That's what her husband X husband looked like. I can't
Speaker 3: I'm JFK. I don't even want to talk about him, Junior.
Speaker 3: He's he's saying that Biden shutting down social media or
Speaker 3: anything that was negative during the beginning of COVID, that
Speaker 3: that is worse for our democracy than what Trump has
Speaker 3: done so far. You could say he said, I could
Speaker 3: make a case.
Speaker 2: Well, of course, please, Well, of course, of course.
Speaker 3: They both won the primary in Connecticut and New York
Speaker 3: and Rhode Island in Wisconsin. What I'm really surprised about is,
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm really surprised in all battleground states, all
Speaker 3: key ones, Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin,
Speaker 3: Trump is beating Biden. He is polling higher, and I
Speaker 3: just can't believe it. And in the like Arizona, in Michigan,
Speaker 3: he's up by like six points. We got to figure
Speaker 3: out Biden's people have to get on it and figure
Speaker 3: out some better messaging because this is ridiculous.
Speaker 2: It is ridiculous, Barbick. And I'm telling you right now,
Speaker 2: it's sneaking by its to the what kind of people
Speaker 2: live in America and what kind of America they want
Speaker 2: to live in?
Speaker 3: Wicked? I mean, it's yeah, I mean, and it's not.
Speaker 3: There's so much, so so much angst all over the world.
Speaker 3: Like we have in we have the not for profit
Speaker 3: people that World Central Kitchen that is run by I'm
Speaker 3: blinking on his name, Jose Andres. He's a wonderful chef
Speaker 3: who decided that in his next chapter in life. You know,
Speaker 3: I think he did it up till he was sixty
Speaker 3: sixty five whatever and decided that he wanted to feed
Speaker 3: the poor, which I think is great. So he has
Speaker 3: been working with Cindy McCain and they've been over trying
Speaker 3: to feed the people from Gaza and then all of
Speaker 3: a sudden, seven of them are killed in some sort
Speaker 3: of air strike. That that was tragic and it was unintended.
Speaker 3: Net Yaho said, So we got to figure it out.
Speaker 3: You know, people, I mean, they deserve to be fed.
Speaker 3: I can't imagine anybody's gone to want to go over
Speaker 3: there and volunteer their time and help if they can't
Speaker 3: even be kept safe. So hopefully they'll figure that out.
Speaker 3: Up PRIs to their family. There was an American Canadian.
Speaker 3: I don't know if there were Canadian first and then
Speaker 3: then became an American or American person then became Canadian.
Speaker 3: But they were killed. I know that President Biden had
Speaker 3: a strong talk with net and Yahoo. We'll see if
Speaker 3: anything comes from that. The one thing that did come
Speaker 3: was that they opened up as like that little channel
Speaker 3: so that they could try to get some aid through
Speaker 3: but we'll see. I'd love to see the hostages. I'd
Speaker 3: like to hear something about them. Are they say, are
Speaker 3: they still with us? I'm a little anxious to hear
Speaker 3: something about that. So our prayers to all of those people.
Speaker 2: That is there right there, because let me tell you something,
Speaker 2: that is a lot going on over there, and it's
Speaker 2: so many different stories. And that is why here at
Speaker 2: Lapeline we do say I love our prayers and our understanding,
Speaker 2: especially to all the innocence, but we do not insert
Speaker 2: our pinions on that because there is a lot going
Speaker 2: on over there.
Speaker 3: It's too complicated. Honey. I got to be quite honest
Speaker 3: with you. I don't think I could piece it all together.
Speaker 3: I just know on both sides there are a lot
Speaker 3: of people that have been hurt are being hurt. You know,
Speaker 3: Iran now has their panties in a wad, and there's
Speaker 3: going to be something. We have to watch, all of us.
Speaker 3: Keep your as t TGM would say, keep your head
Speaker 3: on a swovel. You know, they're waiting for some sort
Speaker 3: of something to happen from Iran. It'll probably be overseas
Speaker 3: at one of our embassies or something. But you know
Speaker 3: what I thought was interesting to get This is totally
Speaker 3: off topic. There was something that I was reading and
Speaker 3: initially I thought it was it was for the Bad Oregon.
Speaker 3: Oregon Governor Tina Kotek. She is recriminalizing drug use, personal
Speaker 3: drug use. They were one of the first states to
Speaker 3: decriminalize it. But she's doing it because they're not getting
Speaker 3: enough help. So she has a certain amount of that
Speaker 3: you have to be carrying. You could get up to
Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty days in jail. That said, the
Speaker 3: focus is actually on connecting individuals with mental health services,
Speaker 3: addiction services. With the rizin fentanyl. She's terrified for what
Speaker 3: that's going to mean for her community. For some reason,
Speaker 3: Oregon has you know, high drug issues, and I thought
Speaker 3: a strange way to do it. But you know, if
Speaker 3: it works, you know, it's she's sort of doing it.
Speaker 3: It sounds like on a pilot program. If it works,
Speaker 3: you know, kudos to her. She's trying to solve She's
Speaker 3: actually trying to dig down and get to the root
Speaker 3: of the issue rather than just you know, if throwing
Speaker 3: something on it helping it goes away.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Oregon is no notorious for that black tar. I
Speaker 2: think it's orgon and Maine for that black black to
Speaker 2: our heroin, especially with the youth, with the young. I
Speaker 2: don't know why the drug use is so heavy over
Speaker 2: there either by me. I don't know what's mission.
Speaker 3: I don't know either. It's beautiful over there, like so
Speaker 3: I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't get those people have to, you know, run
Speaker 2: to that. But yeah, that is crazy because what you're
Speaker 2: gonna do locker them half the state? If so many
Speaker 2: people are addicted to that, and that heroin is highly addicted.
Speaker 2: If you so so many people addicted that, what're you
Speaker 2: gonna do? Locker them half the damn state?
Speaker 3: I don't know what I'm thinking.
Speaker 2: That's going to cause the other half all the money
Speaker 2: to take care of them?
Speaker 3: Well is so that's what I'm thinking. I don't know
Speaker 3: if she's I mean, there's going to be something that's
Speaker 3: more finite than what I'm actually what I'm actually seeing
Speaker 3: in the in the paper. But that said, I like
Speaker 3: that she's trying to do something. But did she Is
Speaker 3: she getting special funding? Did she get a grant or
Speaker 3: something from the federal government that will help fund it.
Speaker 3: We're gonna have to keep our eye on that because,
Speaker 3: as I said, if it actually works, they were one
Speaker 3: of the first to decriminalize, and all the other states followed.
Speaker 3: So I'd like to get a handle on with all
Speaker 3: the gun violence and everything flame these mental health issues, right,
Speaker 3: So if this is a this is some sort of
Speaker 3: way to make it work, we'll keep our fingers and
Speaker 3: toes crossed. We'll have to watch that one.
Speaker 2: I can't across my toes.
Speaker 3: I I can't cross my top, but I could go well,
Speaker 3: I can't even reach them anymore. For the love of God,
Speaker 3: I'd have to get up on some sort of pulley system. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I don't think no wouldn't worked for me. Something that
Speaker 3: was sort of in my area is it's one of
Speaker 3: the only things new that I have on immigration is
Speaker 3: you remember when they sent Desanta scent in a plane
Speaker 3: all of the immigrants up to Matha's vineyard, to that
Speaker 3: beautiful area of Matha's vineyard. They actually judge just said
Speaker 3: that that they can sue. That the immigrants can actually
Speaker 3: sue because they were sort of sold a bill of goods.
Speaker 3: They were told to get on get on the flight.
Speaker 3: They would be educational resources, they'd have jobs, stable housing,
Speaker 3: and so of course they hopped on. Who wouldn't if
Speaker 3: you were trying to help your family vac that transportation.
Speaker 2: That that that's what that's where he lost me at.
Speaker 2: So so they can sue Governor DeSantis because he was
Speaker 2: the one who initiated it.
Speaker 3: That I agree. That's what they should be able to
Speaker 3: sue the State of Florida. DISSANTUS through the State of Florida.
Speaker 3: But what they're allowed to sue is the transportation. I
Speaker 3: don't get it. A federal judge ruled it, but he's
Speaker 3: allowing it. I don't get it. Makes no sense to me.
Speaker 2: You got to see the flips out of it. Them
Speaker 2: suing will cause them to have to stay in the
Speaker 2: states even longer. So at the end of it, they
Speaker 2: might get their green car, but they definitely will get
Speaker 2: the longer stay than they were supposed to be because
Speaker 2: they have lost it.
Speaker 3: That's exactly either.
Speaker 2: And they can drag that out as long as they
Speaker 2: want to it. If you don't believe they can drag
Speaker 2: it out, look at the ninety one chargers. That's the
Speaker 2: pop against the ex President Trump right now. They're dragging
Speaker 2: it out, So they should drag it out. I'm not
Speaker 2: even mad at them. Drag it out.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, eighty eight. Let's get you know, if
Speaker 3: you lost a couple, But they will, and what they'll
Speaker 3: get is even if they got only a few box flame,
Speaker 3: they have nothing. So even if they got a couple
Speaker 3: of thousand each for each person, it's even longer that
Speaker 3: they can stay here for that, you know, like they.
Speaker 2: I don't think the goal. I don't think the gold
Speaker 2: is money. I think the gold is a green car.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so too. To be safe, I mean,
Speaker 3: these people, I know that they should be doing it
Speaker 3: the right way. I agree with that.
Speaker 2: We have a.
Speaker 3: Severely broken system that's been broken for over fifty years.
Speaker 3: We need to fix it. But you know, if they
Speaker 3: do it this way, if they've all been vetted. So
Speaker 3: that's the other thing. The people who you know, I
Speaker 3: don't know who was on that was on that plane,
Speaker 3: as long as they're all vetted, and they were, they
Speaker 3: were decent people. You know, I don't have as much
Speaker 3: of a problem with that either. I just wish, you know,
Speaker 3: I wish Congress would fix it. I wish they would
Speaker 3: the bill that was put forth would actually be fixed
Speaker 3: and somebody would read it. And that's only a first
Speaker 3: best step. It's not even a reform of immigration. But
Speaker 3: that's all I have for this week, touts. So I
Speaker 3: know you've got a whole bunch of stuff that's coming up.
Speaker 3: Anything you want to tell you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we have Sherry Shepard coming up, our big birthday
Speaker 2: show April twenty second, Oh, the Sherry Shepherd. So so
Speaker 2: you guys please make sure you stay tuned. Then we're
Speaker 2: doing way up with angela Ye the very next day
Speaker 2: April twenty sixth and twenty seventh, we will be in Colleen,
Speaker 2: Texas at twice this Funny Comedy Club, and then two
Speaker 2: weeks later May tenth, I am showcasing, but Netflix is
Speaker 2: a joke alone with so many other famous and fabulous comedians.
Speaker 2: That whole week May thirtieth, I'm in Chicago for Urban
Speaker 2: Pratt and June I am in New York and I
Speaker 2: want you to Dominican Republic. And then July I am
Speaker 2: in Atlanta. So it's a lot going on. It's a
Speaker 2: lot going on. I'm excited. I want to thank you
Speaker 2: guys for the prayers for my family because my brother
Speaker 2: is we grew up very close. Growing up. I was
Speaker 2: his protector. He's four years my junior. And when I
Speaker 2: became came out or became trans we got very distant
Speaker 2: from each other because he didn't agree with my lifetime.
Speaker 2: That didn't mean that he didn't love me or whatever.
Speaker 2: It just wasn't for him and I never forced it
Speaker 2: on him. He always called me about my biological name,
Speaker 2: and you know we sold. When I was in seeing
Speaker 2: him in the hospital yesterday, I told him, I said, oh,
Speaker 2: I should shake my tends in your face because you
Speaker 2: can't get up and do nothing because they have him
Speaker 2: shrup to the bed. And he heard me, and he
Speaker 2: opened his eyes and he looked at me and gave
Speaker 2: me a little smirk, and then he closed his eyes,
Speaker 2: so I know he heard me. And I said, to
Speaker 2: make light of the situation that I never foresaw. I
Speaker 2: was on my brother and never stopped from between the
Speaker 2: two of us, because if you guys understand that your
Speaker 2: family is your family, those are things that you cannot choose.
Speaker 2: That is what you were going into. It ain't always
Speaker 2: the perfect ones because you ain't always perfect. But you know,
Speaker 2: he's still my brother. So I'm glad I was there
Speaker 2: for him. And I think God is slowing my brother
Speaker 2: down because he was always on the mood, stressing with
Speaker 2: all the damn keys. So you got a whole bunch
Speaker 2: of kids. Good God Jesus, but prayers to him and
Speaker 2: thank you guys. I appreciate you all. Listen, we I
