All right, glad you're with us, and 0:00:25.360 --> 0:00:27.800 Happy Friday to all of you. I'm in a great 0:00:27.840 --> 0:00:30.840 mood today. I am in Houston many thanks to our 0:00:30.840 --> 0:00:33.920 affiliate down here in news Radio seven forty ktr H, 0:00:34.040 --> 0:00:37.640 and their hospitality has been so amazing and fun, and 0:00:37.720 --> 0:00:40.440 it's it's like a super Bowl atmosphere everywhere you go 0:00:40.520 --> 0:00:42.720 downtown and it's just a lot of fun. We're gonna 0:00:42.720 --> 0:00:45.559 be doing our TV show from here tonight, which I 0:00:45.600 --> 0:00:48.840 think you will enjoy. I think it's gonna be fun 0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:51.159 to do that here as well. Anyway, lot going on 0:00:51.159 --> 0:00:53.080 in a program today. Let me tell you one thing 0:00:53.120 --> 0:00:56.960 we are monitoring and watching very very closely, and that 0:00:57.200 --> 0:01:02.360 is there appears to be an emerging show down with Iran, 0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:08.000 and I will not be surprised if at some point 0:01:08.920 --> 0:01:13.240 this ends up being a big deal. Now, let me 0:01:13.440 --> 0:01:15.360 if you can pull up the lineup for tonight. Yeah, 0:01:15.440 --> 0:01:18.240 that'd be great, thank you. Sorry, I'm in a different studio. 0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:23.600 So anyway, So it started with the Iranians, of course, 0:01:23.760 --> 0:01:30.360 breaking the U N Nuclear Agreement and test firing ballistic missiles. Now, 0:01:30.400 --> 0:01:33.240 this was the dumbest thing that the Obama administration did. 0:01:33.280 --> 0:01:36.039 On top of every bad economic data point that I 0:01:36.040 --> 0:01:39.319 would give you on a regular basis, there's nothing worse 0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:43.080 than what they did with Iran and paying ransom and 0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:46.200 giving them the right to spend centerfuges keep their program, 0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:49.520 and giving them billions and billions of taxpayer dollars at 0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:51.640 the end of the day because that otherwise would be 0:01:51.680 --> 0:01:55.400 our money that we deserve, alright, So go to the block. Yeah. 0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:57.800 So what I'm trying to say is there's now we've 0:01:57.840 --> 0:02:00.400 got a case. So after they fired the ballistic souls 0:02:01.280 --> 0:02:04.640 the Iranians, then we had General Flynn go out there yesterday. 0:02:04.680 --> 0:02:08.320 In General Flynn says, we are putting a ran on notice, 0:02:08.760 --> 0:02:12.320 We're putting a RAN on notice, and now Donald Trump 0:02:12.360 --> 0:02:16.400 has weighed in, and now he's moving forward with potential sanctions. 0:02:17.200 --> 0:02:19.880 And today the Trump administration showed the world. I think 0:02:19.919 --> 0:02:22.960 that they mean business. They imposed these new sanctions on 0:02:23.040 --> 0:02:26.640 thirteen individuals, twelve companies in response to the Iranian missile, 0:02:27.400 --> 0:02:30.160 and a navy destroyer has now been moved to the 0:02:30.200 --> 0:02:33.000 coast of Yemen. I have no doubt that eventually it 0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:35.160 will make its way up the straits of Horn moves. 0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:38.519 On top of that, Trump tweeted out Iran is playing 0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:43.160 with fire. They don't appreciate how quote unquote kind President 0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:48.200 Obama was to them, not me, he says. Also, Paris 0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:50.640 is on high alert after a man with a machete 0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:53.839 and two backpacks tried to in o An area, where 0:02:53.840 --> 0:02:57.840 French soldiers opened fire as he was yelling Allahu akbar. Shocking, 0:02:58.280 --> 0:03:00.960 this never happens. I can't believe even such a shocking 0:03:00.960 --> 0:03:04.440 bit of news today. Then the threat the President is 0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:07.560 trying to protect Americans from, he tweeted today, a new 0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:12.080 radical Islamic terrorist has just attacked. He's talking about what 0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:15.640 happened in Paris and the Paris museum and tourists were 0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:19.920 locked down and France is on edge. Yet again, the 0:03:20.040 --> 0:03:23.520 US needs to get smart. So the Trump administration, what 0:03:23.639 --> 0:03:26.840 is he doing? This is another promise he's making good 0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:30.000 this morning on his threats to punish Iran for their 0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:33.640 ballistic missiles test. That was illegal, that was against the 0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:37.200 agreement that they made, one of many agreements that they signed. 0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:39.640 If you go back and look at North Korea and 0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:41.760 how they played the United States, they play a cat 0:03:41.800 --> 0:03:45.080 and mouse game, and they get money from the Clinton administration. 0:03:45.680 --> 0:03:48.119 Then the Clinton administration would go in, make a deal, 0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:50.560 give them more money, and tell them you've got to stop. 0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:53.000 You gotta start being good people. They say, okay, sure, 0:03:53.040 --> 0:03:55.960 we'll start being good. Give us billions of dollars. Then 0:03:56.000 --> 0:03:57.920 they'd wait a period of two three months and then 0:03:58.040 --> 0:03:59.720 they'd go back to their old ways, and then the 0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:01.760 Clinton administration would go in and give them more money. 0:04:02.040 --> 0:04:04.840 So then they ultimately would be using our money to 0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:09.480 become a nuclear power. Here's the problem here. You cannot 0:04:10.080 --> 0:04:16.359 marry radical Islamic terrorism with nuclear weapons. And if you 0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:20.880 do this, I guarantee you that the world at some 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:25.240 point is going to see a nuclear holocaust. So anyway, 0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:30.440 the Treasury sanctioned thirteen individuals. These twelve businesses that Reuters reported, 0:04:30.480 --> 0:04:33.000 several of which were based in the United Arab Emirates, 0:04:33.080 --> 0:04:36.800 Lebanon and China. The President then raised the stake stakes 0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:38.960 with that tweet this morning that they're playing with fire. 0:04:39.480 --> 0:04:41.520 This is on top of they've been put on notice 0:04:42.240 --> 0:04:45.080 and the White House suggesting just before we came on 0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:48.480 the air today that more sanctions, even military action could 0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:51.680 be on the way, and the President dramatically raising the 0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:54.599 possibility of military action against the RAM because of this 0:04:54.680 --> 0:04:58.039 missile test. Here is a truth that we just have 0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:01.440 to face. And you're gonna say, Hannity, you're a warmonger. Now, 0:05:01.480 --> 0:05:05.760 Hannity is not a warmonger. And we can't fight wars 0:05:05.839 --> 0:05:09.760 like we did in Vietnam and send Americans to fight, bleed, 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:14.400 die and win and then pull our victory, you know, 0:05:15.040 --> 0:05:17.799 everything they fought and gain and then walk away because 0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:21.560 it becomes politicized in Washington, d C. You know, when 0:05:21.720 --> 0:05:24.919 brave Americans fight, bleed and die to the tune of 0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:29.840 five thousand plus in Iraq and Afghanistan, and then we 0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:32.599 politicized the war and the very people that sent these 0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:35.520 guys to war, and these guys go and win Mosul 0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:39.240 and Baghdad and Ramadi, and to create and Felucia, and 0:05:39.240 --> 0:05:41.880 then all of a sudden we say, never mind. How 0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:43.760 do you look in the eye of a parent that 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:47.320 lost their son or their daughter fighting and winning they 0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:50.720 were they were ordered to win those cities, only to 0:05:51.080 --> 0:05:53.880 politicize it and then hand it over and create a 0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:57.200 vacuum for Isis. So Isis not only has a launching 0:05:57.240 --> 0:06:01.080 pad for their worldwide terror network, but of financing because 0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:04.120 they have the Iraqi oil. Because we didn't even protect 0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:06.680 that on our way out. That's how stupid we are. 0:06:06.839 --> 0:06:11.000 Now this will probably be if it comes down to 0:06:11.040 --> 0:06:14.640 it taking out the Iranian nuclear facilities, This is going 0:06:14.680 --> 0:06:18.120 to be one of the most sophisticated and one of 0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:21.920 the most difficult military operations will see in history. Now, 0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:25.000 if you go back to the nineteen eighties and when 0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:29.280 the when the Israelis took out Iraqi's nuclear sights, or 0:06:29.360 --> 0:06:31.640 more recently a number of years ago when they flew 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:35.400 under the radar and it got very little publicity, but 0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:38.960 they took out Syrian nuclear sights as well. Nobody really 0:06:38.960 --> 0:06:42.200 paid attention in the world. The Israelis are fantastic at 0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:45.520 what they do. Here's what I imagine could happen, which 0:06:45.560 --> 0:06:48.400 is gonna be very different than starting a war with Iran. 0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:50.400 What's I Ran gonna do is a ram gonna come 0:06:50.400 --> 0:06:53.119 over here and try and send soldiers. They'll be blown 0:06:53.120 --> 0:06:56.000 out of the water before they get fifteen feet to 0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:59.040 the coast of the United States, or or fifteen thousand 0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:02.440 feet before the nine It states. But it's what the 0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:06.880 what the Iranians cleverly did. They're evil, Yeah, they're evil. 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:09.640 That the number one state sponsor of terror. But what 0:07:09.680 --> 0:07:13.040 the Iranians did is they spread their nuclear sights all 0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:16.040 over their country, and they have a lot of land mass. 0:07:16.640 --> 0:07:18.960 And what they also did is they buried these nuclear 0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:22.840 sites deep underground. So the process of taking out those sites, 0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:27.280 and they do have somewhat sophisticated Remember part of the 0:07:27.280 --> 0:07:30.160 the Obama deal was to allow missile defense to be 0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:33.440 built with Russia. Part of the deal was they could 0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:37.320 continue to spin their centerfuges, you know. So they do 0:07:37.480 --> 0:07:41.440 have a pretty healthy air force, although it won't compete 0:07:41.440 --> 0:07:44.240 with the US Air Force. But what I can see 0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:47.400 happening is an alliance emerging. And this might be the 0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:50.760 most unlikely alliance you've ever heard of. But I could 0:07:50.800 --> 0:07:55.080 see the Saudis, remember their Sunni's. I could see the Egyptians, 0:07:55.520 --> 0:07:58.880 I could see the Jordanians, and I could see the Israelis, 0:07:59.240 --> 0:08:01.960 and I could see the United States all teaming up 0:08:02.840 --> 0:08:06.880 and together taking out those nuclear sites. And if we 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:09.800 don't do it at some point, I'm not saying we 0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:12.760 have to do it tomorrow. If those sites are not 0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:17.080 taken out in the next number of years, and the 0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:20.880 Iranian molas the number one state sponsors of terror, if 0:08:20.880 --> 0:08:24.000 they get a nuclear weapon, then I will tell you 0:08:24.120 --> 0:08:28.680 what would stop them from using it? What would stop 0:08:28.800 --> 0:08:31.720 Where is the conscience in the soul of a radical 0:08:31.880 --> 0:08:36.599 Islamist from using a nuclear weapon that they have developed 0:08:37.080 --> 0:08:41.000 with the help of a United States president ex president 0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:44.959 now by the name of Barack Obama. What would stop them? 0:08:45.120 --> 0:08:48.120 I don't know if there's anything. And this is now 0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:52.360 going to be the moral litmus test for the world. 0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:56.160 They remember Bush talked about the access of evil. They 0:08:56.200 --> 0:08:59.760 are They are evil. And I think if Donald Trump 0:08:59.840 --> 0:09:02.600 is saying you've been put on notice, I think when 0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:05.760 Donald Trump tweets, I ran as playing with fire. When 0:09:05.760 --> 0:09:08.920 he tweets, they don't appreciate how kind President Obama was 0:09:09.000 --> 0:09:12.520 to them, not me, And he now begins to move 0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:15.160 with sanctions and they're not taking off the table of 0:09:15.240 --> 0:09:18.000 military option. What would the option be. Is the option 0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:20.360 gonna be to bomb innocent people in Tehran? I don't 0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:23.800 think so. Remember Obama had that chance in two thousand 0:09:23.800 --> 0:09:26.640 and nine during the Green Revolution to step up and 0:09:26.720 --> 0:09:30.720 support in solidarity those people that were quoting Lincoln and 0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:33.000 our founders and our framers, and he did nothing. He 0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:36.000 turned his back on them and then ended up working 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:39.760 with the radical extremists that run around. So it's not 0:09:39.800 --> 0:09:43.720 gonna be, oh, let's bomb Tehran. It's gonna be a 0:09:43.800 --> 0:09:47.640 direct attack on their nuclear facilities. Now, if you use 0:09:47.960 --> 0:09:50.440 the bunker busting bombs that we had once used in 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:54.319 Iraq that I am told I only, we've only improved 0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:57.640 the quality of If you couple that with our ability 0:09:57.679 --> 0:10:00.960 to fight a war from Tampa, Florida, If a couple 0:10:01.040 --> 0:10:02.960 that with we have the best air force in the 0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:06.720 history of mankind, and the Israeli Air Force offering support, 0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:10.480 and the Jordanian Air Force offering support, and the Egyptian 0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:14.240 Air Force offering support, and the Saudi Air Force offering support. 0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:16.600 How much do you want to bet if the Iranians 0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:19.600 keep this up, we're gonna rock their world. And it's 0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:23.240 not gonna be American men and women knocking door to 0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:26.160 door to door to door to door and getting hit 0:10:26.200 --> 0:10:28.480 with I e. D s and having their legs blown 0:10:28.520 --> 0:10:31.319 off and their brains blown out. That's not a way 0:10:31.360 --> 0:10:34.000 to fight a war anymore. We've got to get more sophisticated. 0:10:34.840 --> 0:10:36.920 So I'm taking you down this road because I can 0:10:37.040 --> 0:10:41.480 absolutely see this happening now. Also, since last Friday when 0:10:41.480 --> 0:10:46.160 President Trump issued his executive order, what the all left, radical, 0:10:46.840 --> 0:10:50.640 lying propaganda colluding media told you was a Muslim band, 0:10:50.679 --> 0:10:54.000 which it is not. More fake news anyway, more than 0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:56.880 a hundred thousand visas have been revoked since the Order 0:10:56.880 --> 0:11:00.480 on Immigration and Travel was signed. Now, there's a hundred 0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:03.320 thousand people that might be at risk to you and 0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:06.800 to your families. Is it worth the gamble in your 0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:09.680 mind to allow him into the country or not to 0:11:09.760 --> 0:11:12.760 have them convenient so we can say we're really sweet 0:11:12.800 --> 0:11:15.120 and kind and a nice country, and please don't hurt 0:11:15.200 --> 0:11:17.880 us if we let you in. No, that's called being 0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:22.160 an adult anyway. So the number came to uh in 0:11:22.200 --> 0:11:25.079 a question in an answer to a question from a 0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:27.280 judge about how many people have been affected by the 0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:31.560 order from the Office of Immigration Litigation at the Civil 0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:34.840 Division of the Justice Department. They also said no returning 0:11:35.240 --> 0:11:38.679 legal permanent residence. Those with green cards have been turned away, 0:11:38.800 --> 0:11:42.079 and that was part of the controversy. Now, just to 0:11:42.120 --> 0:11:44.320 be a little more specific as to what is Trump 0:11:44.440 --> 0:11:48.400 is doing here, he dispatched You might remember the USS coal. 0:11:49.200 --> 0:11:52.600 That is a heavy destroyer. It's armed with guided missiles. 0:11:53.360 --> 0:11:55.920 Their job now is to patrol the waters off the 0:11:55.960 --> 0:11:58.080 coast of Yam. And remember there's been a proxy war 0:11:58.120 --> 0:12:01.000 with the Hooties or whatever they're called, fighting the Saudis. 0:12:01.000 --> 0:12:04.240 But they're basically like everything else the Iranians do. They 0:12:04.320 --> 0:12:07.120 they've been fighting proxy wars against everybody in Israel and 0:12:07.160 --> 0:12:10.120 the United States. Remember how many people the Iranians were 0:12:10.160 --> 0:12:13.880 responsible for killing in Iraq and Afghanistan. So I'm sure 0:12:13.920 --> 0:12:16.880 that they're gonna notice the deployment of the USS coal, 0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:19.960 which was bombed by the al Qaeda terrorists while at 0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:23.480 the port of Yemen. That was back in an active 0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:27.080 war that has yet to be avenged. The coal is larger, 0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:30.440 it's more heavily armed than most previous ships that are 0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:35.439 classified as guided missile cruisers. Its weaponry includes over ninety 0:12:35.559 --> 0:12:41.040 ages system radar guided missiles. Significant serious damage can be 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:43.960 done with this, and the US has moved a Navy 0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:48.400 destroyer there too. Um. They arrived in the vicinity off 0:12:48.400 --> 0:12:52.480 the straits of southwestern Yemen. So that's moving forward. We 0:12:52.520 --> 0:12:55.079 have some good economic news will share with you today, 0:12:55.120 --> 0:12:58.640 some job growth news will share with you today. Trump 0:12:58.679 --> 0:13:02.400 now eyeing apostle, will roll back of Dodd Frank, which 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:05.480 is good news. We've got an NBC hip piece on 0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:09.000 Neil Gorsers that will share with you. And time for 0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:12.960 the Trump administration to maybe start looking at George Soros 0:13:13.040 --> 0:13:17.960 and funding of radicalism. I'll explain that today anyway, Shaun, 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:20.679 We're in Houston. Super Bowl Sunday coming up. We've got 0:13:20.679 --> 0:13:22.600 a great TV showed it for you tonight as well. 0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:25.400 I'll tell you about that in a minute. Bringing jobs 0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:31.120 back to America and getting America back door. This is 0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:54.400 a shawl helly shoe alright, eight hundred nine fold one, 0:13:54.400 --> 0:13:57.360 Shawn told free telephone number. We're in Houston, the site 0:13:57.440 --> 0:14:00.200 of the Super bowls, the Falcons and the Patriots. We'll 0:14:00.200 --> 0:14:02.240 do some predictions with my team at the bottom of 0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:04.280 the hour. A couple of other good news on the 0:14:04.320 --> 0:14:07.000 economy issues that came up today. President Trump looking to 0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:12.200 roll back one, if not the most damaging regulatory disaster 0:14:12.320 --> 0:14:16.560 imposed by the Obama administration, Dodd Frank, which had lending 0:14:16.800 --> 0:14:20.120 to small business in a stranglehold ever since it was passed, 0:14:20.120 --> 0:14:24.640 and President Trump's now planning to reevaluate Dodd Frank Wall 0:14:24.680 --> 0:14:27.120 Street Reform in a move that could lead to major 0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:31.040 changes in the regulatory environment. Anyway, with meetings with business 0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:34.320 leaders since taking off, as he consistently keeps hearing complaints 0:14:34.360 --> 0:14:38.480 about federal regulations, and you know, Trump's expected to sign 0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:41.680 an executive order directing the Treasury Secretary to consult with 0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:44.040 regulators about what needs to be done to fix dot 0:14:44.080 --> 0:14:48.520 Frank and report back within a relatively short period of time. 0:14:49.360 --> 0:14:53.720 And his Secretary Treasury, Steve Manustion, has not been confirmed yet, 0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:55.720 but he could get a full Senate vote next week, 0:14:55.760 --> 0:14:59.480 so we'll watch that closely. The other thing is the 0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:05.000 job growth. US job creation is soaring since Donald Trump's 0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:08.160 not even the first two weeks in office. Business is 0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:11.440 now moving to take advantage of the new administration's plan 0:15:11.560 --> 0:15:16.240 to cut regulations, lower the tax rates, and Obamacare and 0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:20.480 roll back some of these oppressive ep A measures. And anyway, 0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:25.440 America added two seven thousand jobs in January, increase over 0:15:25.520 --> 0:15:29.960 December's hundred and fifty thousand jobs, and the unemployment rate 0:15:30.640 --> 0:15:33.680 is uh you know still early construction added thirty six 0:15:33.680 --> 0:15:37.360 thousand workers, financial services hired thirty two thousand, healthcare gain 0:15:37.440 --> 0:15:41.320 eighteen thousand. Manufacturing barely added any jobs. But it's going 0:15:41.360 --> 0:15:43.040 to take a while to get this money into the 0:15:43.080 --> 0:15:47.200 system and get Americans that desperately need jobs back to work. 0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:50.160 It took about two and a half years for the 0:15:50.200 --> 0:15:54.560 Reagan economy to really take hold and start showing explosive growth. 0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:59.080 The Bank of England uh Governor of the Bank of 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:03.080 the Ben whose name is Ben broad Bent, the Deputy 0:16:03.120 --> 0:16:06.520 Governor the Bank of England, says Trump's election victory has 0:16:06.560 --> 0:16:09.640 been positive for the British economy. Quote You've seen business 0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:13.080 confidence rise, particularly in the US. You've seen financial markets 0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:15.800 get more optimistic, and I think it's having a great 0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:19.120 impact on US so far. At the margin, it's been 0:16:19.160 --> 0:16:22.480 positive for global sentiment and for that reason, to that extent, 0:16:22.640 --> 0:16:25.280 for all of us. I'm sure you're not going to 0:16:25.360 --> 0:16:28.760 hear about that on NBC, ABC or CBS. We have 0:16:28.800 --> 0:16:32.240 another fake news story, an NBC hip piece on Neil 0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:34.480 Gorsts that turned out to be fake.

The person 0:18:25.000 --> 0:18:28.680 I'm most interested in asking though, is Linda. Because Linda 0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:32.680 knows nothing about football. Isn't that true? It's pretty accurate. 0:18:33.280 --> 0:18:34.720 You have to put a MinC up in a little 0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:37.680 bit higher. Okay, Jason, can you turn the music down. 0:18:37.680 --> 0:18:41.680 And my niece just walked and you remember my niece, Cassie. 0:18:42.840 --> 0:18:47.000 Cassie talk on the headphone, say hi to Linda. Hey girl, 0:18:47.040 --> 0:18:52.439 how's married life? It's great? She's a doctor. She delivers babies. 0:18:52.440 --> 0:18:56.320 How many babies you delivered today? This is a microphone. 0:18:56.400 --> 0:18:58.639 You have to actually talk into it. You can't. I didn't. 0:18:58.680 --> 0:19:00.879 I wasn't delivering baby today today. I was doing gun 0:19:00.920 --> 0:19:02.600 in co logic surgeries. So I did about six of 0:19:02.640 --> 0:19:06.600 those six surgeries today. And how many babies do you 0:19:06.600 --> 0:19:11.560 deliver on any given week? You know, um, roughly ten 0:19:11.640 --> 0:19:15.880 to fifteen. Now, as an uncle when you were growing up, 0:19:16.160 --> 0:19:21.280 how great was I number one? Uncle? Why? Because I 0:19:21.320 --> 0:19:25.200 gave you a college scholarship? Thank you, Uncle Sewn? So 0:19:25.440 --> 0:19:27.120 thank you Uncle Sewn. All right, I'm gonna ask your 0:19:27.119 --> 0:19:29.639 football picks in a minute, all right? Uh so do 0:19:29.680 --> 0:19:33.439 you know who's playing in the in the Super bow Bowl? First, Linda? 0:19:33.960 --> 0:19:36.080 I know who's in there? All right? Are you going 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:37.920 by colors again? You gotta speak a little louder. I 0:19:37.960 --> 0:19:40.840 don't hear you too. I'm going by colors for this, 0:19:41.080 --> 0:19:44.080 uh for this football game. And for those of you 0:19:44.119 --> 0:19:46.160 in America who think I'm screaming, I am because our 0:19:46.200 --> 0:19:49.600 boss is deaf. So I apologize to you listening America, 0:19:49.840 --> 0:19:51.119 but I can hear you now you don't have to 0:19:51.160 --> 0:19:54.760 yell anymore. Go ahead. So how so my question is 0:19:54.800 --> 0:19:57.960 who are you picking for the Super Bowl? I um, 0:19:58.000 --> 0:20:00.160 I'm going by colors, and I don't like red and black, 0:20:00.240 --> 0:20:02.240 so I'm going with the other team. Because you're going 0:20:02.280 --> 0:20:04.720 with colors, and you're not even gonna watch the Super Bowl, right, 0:20:04.760 --> 0:20:06.560 You're gonna You're gonna watch the Puppy Bowl, or you're 0:20:06.560 --> 0:20:09.159 gonna watch the Lingerie Bowl. I'm gonna be watching the 0:20:09.160 --> 0:20:12.040 Puppy Bowl. Okay. If I had a choice and I 0:20:12.040 --> 0:20:14.639 wasn't gonna watch the Super Bowl, I'd watch the Lingerie Bowl. 0:20:14.760 --> 0:20:17.439 I am shocked to hear that. I think every guy 0:20:17.520 --> 0:20:19.520 would pick the Lingerie Bowl over the Puppy Bowl. But 0:20:19.560 --> 0:20:21.840 I might because I love dogs. I might. I might 0:20:21.920 --> 0:20:24.080 DVR the Puppy Bull so I could watch that later. 0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:27.040 But I watched the Lingerie Bowl just in case there 0:20:27.160 --> 0:20:29.640 is a wardrobe function that we need to talk about 0:20:29.680 --> 0:20:31.959 the day. I think I'm gonna boycott it all. Just 0:20:32.000 --> 0:20:34.280 because it's so liberal, and you would haven't watched the 0:20:34.320 --> 0:20:36.720 super Bowl your whole life, which is pathetic. Everyone can 0:20:36.800 --> 0:20:38.560 watch the super Bowl and you're the only one that 0:20:38.600 --> 0:20:40.920 doesn't watch it. I watched like five minutes last year. 0:20:40.960 --> 0:20:44.760 I did five minutes. Would you watch the halftime show? 0:20:44.800 --> 0:20:47.600 You lady Gaga? This god? I wouldn't watch her. I 0:20:47.680 --> 0:20:49.560 mean I would watch it if she fell off the stage. 0:20:49.600 --> 0:20:52.280 I would like to see that. All right, So let's 0:20:52.280 --> 0:20:54.280 talk to some real and how many points are the 0:20:54.280 --> 0:20:59.280 Patriots gonna win by? Uh? It's radio, you gotta talk. 0:20:59.359 --> 0:21:01.640 I have no idea. I don't even have never at 0:21:01.640 --> 0:21:03.720 a loss for words. I don't even know how many 0:21:03.720 --> 0:21:05.840 points they can have. I don't know. Let's see, I 0:21:05.880 --> 0:21:08.600 don't know. A hundred points. H Okay, So you're gonna 0:21:08.680 --> 0:21:11.640 you're picking the Patriots by a hundred points. Okay, Well 0:21:11.720 --> 0:21:14.520 we'll go with that. Jason, who do you got this year? 0:21:15.560 --> 0:21:17.960 You know how I am? You know I am? I 0:21:17.960 --> 0:21:21.520 I despise the Patriots, but I respect them. So this 0:21:21.600 --> 0:21:24.120 is a heart and this is a heart versus head 0:21:24.160 --> 0:21:26.679 issue for you. I'm not going to be a candy 0:21:26.720 --> 0:21:28.840 ass and go with one and then say the other. 0:21:28.920 --> 0:21:34.679 So I'm gonna pick the Falcons two A. Right, so 0:21:34.720 --> 0:21:38.280 you got them by five? Alright? Fine, Ethan, what do 0:21:38.320 --> 0:21:41.240 you got? I got the exact opposite of Jason. I 0:21:41.320 --> 0:21:45.760 think England's gonna win, but England's gonna win. They got 0:21:45.760 --> 0:21:49.640 too much new England's gonna win by five. You guys 0:21:49.640 --> 0:21:52.719 are given exact score. Sunshine, Who do you got? I 0:21:52.760 --> 0:21:54.919 definitely picked the Patriots. I love them. I don't know 0:21:54.920 --> 0:21:57.040 by how much. I'm not really that into it, but 0:21:57.119 --> 0:22:00.160 I love them. So they're gonna win. So you think 0:22:00.160 --> 0:22:01.760 the Patriots are gonna win, but you don't know by how. 0:22:01.760 --> 0:22:06.600 You have to pick by how many a hundred? Nobody 0:22:06.680 --> 0:22:08.760 thinks by a hundred? What is wrong with you people? 0:22:09.119 --> 0:22:11.200 All right, Kristen, who are you picking? Come on, get 0:22:11.200 --> 0:22:14.200 into the microphone. You know I'm not a sports fan, Shawn, 0:22:14.359 --> 0:22:16.560 I don't know. Maybe the Patriots because I'm in the 0:22:16.600 --> 0:22:23.720 northeast now, I mean no, like seven seven? Alright, Patriots 0:22:23.760 --> 0:22:25.439 by seven? All right? Cassie, who are you picking? Here? 0:22:25.480 --> 0:22:27.760 Come on? And she? What is this dog? You got 0:22:28.200 --> 0:22:31.720 the answers? What if you? I said? I thought I 0:22:31.760 --> 0:22:35.000 just gave her the answers? Just kidding? Um, yeah, no, 0:22:35.080 --> 0:22:37.320 I agree, it'll be the Patriots, and I'll say by three. 0:22:37.480 --> 0:22:39.720 How about that? All right? I got the Patriots by ten, 0:22:39.840 --> 0:22:42.920
