Not opposed to hunting, but 48 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: opposed to elephant hunting.

Um, none of those in 50 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: my mind are things I would want to hunt.

Also update you 53 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: on the Senator Rand Paul story because he got really 54 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: brutally attacked viciously for no reason and the media seems 55 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: to think it's okay to mock him. Will give you 56 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: some of the latest on that, uh and more. Oh, 57 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: another day has passed, right, so we're all quite aware 58 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: of the fact that that means that there must be 59 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: more uh sexual misconduct and sexual abuse allegations, and and 60 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: sure enough there are, so we can address some of 61 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: out with you. We will address some of that together 62 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: in just a little bit. But first I have to 63 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: say the most for me, uh, the most powerful news 64 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: clip for of the whole of the whole day, and 65 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: I have to describe it to you, is this closed 66 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: circuit television footage that was released of this of this 67 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: North Korean soldier who is just desperately trying to get 68 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,119 Speaker 1: across the border into South Korea. I'll see, it's all 69 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: over the news. This was just released today. It's all 70 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: over the news right now. And it's not quite as 71 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: as as an image goes, I'm not sure it'll be 72 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: quite as timeless as that photo from space where you 73 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: see the North and the South, and one is South 74 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: is all lit up at night because there's electricity and 75 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 1: there's prosperity and also the light of freedom. It's it's 76 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: metaphorical and literal. Uh. And then in the North it's 77 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: darkness except for a little bit of light in Pyongyang, 78 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: but not really much. Should be noted that just to 79 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 1: live in pyong Yang, in the capital of North Korea, 80 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: you have to be in favor with the regime. So 81 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 1: that's there's a cast system that extends all the way 82 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: to whether you're even able to live in the capital city. 83 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: But in some ways, this video which shows this North 84 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: Korean soldier who's desperately trying to escape from his country 85 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: into South Korea by running across the Joint Security Area. 86 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: This was back on novem Uh. It's even more visceral, 87 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: it's more real than that photo amount of space, because 88 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: this is somebody who's literally running for his life and 89 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: North Korean soldiers his his fellow soldiers viciously, uh, try 90 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: to cut him down. They shoot him. He gets hit 91 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: a number I think I hit five times and was 92 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 1: left for dead. And then within a period of a 93 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: few hours, I believe you have South Korean soldiers because 94 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 1: this was fifty five It was forty minutes later, sorry, 95 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: not hours later, forty minutes later. So he was bleeding out, 96 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 1: this soldier fifty five yards south of the border with 97 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 1: North and South Korea, and they went and they picked 98 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: him up. They took him to safety, put him on 99 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: a black Hawk helicopter, and he made it to surgery 100 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:37,039 Speaker 1: and Seoul, the capital of South Korea, and was saved. 101 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: This North Korean defector. But you see this video in 102 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: real time, this kind of running for his life, soldiers 103 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 1: gathering around shooting and shooting and shooting. Uh and they 104 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: they hit him, but he survived. So if you were 105 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 1: ever looking for if you were ever looking for proof 106 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,919 Speaker 1: of what we when we talked about things like freedom 107 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 1: and the dignity of the individual. And you know, in 108 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: America we're often fighting over ah issues that matter in 109 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 1: terms of policy, but I think that at our core, 110 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: most of us still understand just how precious human freedom 111 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: really is. I think a vast majority of us, I 112 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: still say, even in bipartisan fashion, people understand human freedom 113 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 1: is a a powerful and beautiful thing, and we all 114 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: yearn for it in different ways. That North Korea has 115 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: to resort to shooting people in the back who are 116 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: desperately running away from their country tells you really everything 117 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: you need to know about what life is like in 118 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: North Korea. That any country would try to use lethal 119 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: force to stop somebody from leaving is emblematic of the 120 00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: tyranny that North Korea in flicks on its people every day. 121 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: I would not recommend over the holiday. Well, that depends 122 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: on what you think holiday reading should be. I was 123 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: gonna say, if you wanted to read Aquariums of yong 124 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: Yang or Escape from Camp fourteen. Uh, they're both excellent books. 125 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: They're tough. It's tough reading, though it is it is 126 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: difficult to really immerse yourself in the misery and slavery 127 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: of North Korea because all North Korean citizens, in one 128 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 1: way or another are enslaved just a question of degree. 129 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: They do not have freedom. Um. And when you look 130 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,679 Speaker 1: at the follow on report to this North Korean defector 131 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: where doctors said that they found you know, I know 132 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: people are gonna be may be listening to preparing food. 133 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: I won't get in the specifics, but they found in 134 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 1: his g I track parasites that were so big that 135 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,199 Speaker 1: the doctor operating on this operating on this defect or 136 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 1: that you've never seen anything like it in twenty years 137 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: of surgery. Because people in North Korea are also eating 138 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: their eating contaminated food, they don't have medical care. I mean, 139 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: it is a the whole country is really operating as 140 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: a prison camp. Even those who are in the military 141 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: and higher up in the North Korean cast system than 142 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: many others, they still don't have freedom and their lives 143 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 1: could be forefeit at a moment's notice. And they and 144 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: they know that. So this is it's a powerful video 145 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: to watch. And as we have our debates and discussions 146 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: about what would be best for this country, what are 147 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: our obligations to protect our not just our citizens, but 148 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: to protect our fellow human beings abroad, our allies, or 149 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: just even people in a country that are in desperate 150 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: need of assistance, we should remember that we are the 151 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: exception America. If we're going to be thankful for, well, 152 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: there's a lot of things to be thankful for, but 153 00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 1: if we're all gonna be thankful for something that we 154 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: can rion and this Thanksgiving, it's that anyone listening to 155 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: the show, if you are living in this country, if 156 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: you're an American, you're so lucky. Watched that video of 157 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 1: the defector running across the d m Z and North Korea, 158 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: and understand that. I think of the desperation that somebody 159 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: would have. He knew that he was going to get 160 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 1: shot at and probably get hit, probably thought he was 161 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: gonna die. It's amazing that he survived. And that is 162 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: that that is a daily life for millions of people 163 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: in that country, that level of misery and that degree 164 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: of despair. So if you're listening to this and you're 165 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: an American or or you just live in a country 166 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: that has under great freedom right to our European and 167 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: Canadian brothers and sisters and anywhere else's listen, anywhere else 168 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:55,319 Speaker 1: in the world. Uh, we are also lucky, but we're 169 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: particularly lucky to be Americans. I know. We We spent 170 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: a lot of time and much of the much of 171 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 1: the talk radio world is about understandably about criticism, about 172 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: pulling apart lies, half truths, propaganda, and there can be 173 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: a negative tone to much of it. And I'm gonna 174 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: pull apart some lives in propaganda here in just a minute, 175 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 1: so you know, don't worry. We're gonna get back into 176 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 1: that in a second. But as I was watching this 177 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 1: video of the North Korean racing across the d m Z, 178 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: north Korean soldier getting shot by his fellow soldier, you 179 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: know they could have well now I was gonna say 180 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: they couldn' let him go, but no that I'm sure 181 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,599 Speaker 1: they'd all be executed too, right, So it's it's complicated 182 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 1: in North Korea. Uh. As you watch that, though, the 183 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: the thought that went through my mind was, I am 184 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: so thankful to be an American. This place is incredible. Yes, 185 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: we have to be vigilant. We have to protect it. It's, 186 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: you know, a republic if we can keep it. This 187 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: country is incredible, those of you who have served in 188 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: and not just in the military just I mean, of 189 00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: course that's the top of the list, but if if 190 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: you've spent time in a true despotism, or if you 191 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: spend time in a failed state, in a place where 192 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: basic subsistence living is really tough for people, it's really 193 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: tough to just stay alive, stay fed, stay healthy. You 194 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: come back to America, it almost feels surreal. I've had 195 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: this experience, and not just from some of the war 196 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: zones that I've told you about where I've spent time, 197 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 1: but some other places. Maybe one day I'll be able 198 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: to tell you about. Although we'll have to see when 199 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: you come back to this country and you're just surrounded 200 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: with h emergency services that will be there to help 201 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: you at a at a you know, within minutes minutes 202 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: of a phone call. The prosperity and the wealth and 203 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: the freedom, and just honestly the cleanliness that we all 204 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:56,959 Speaker 1: live in day in and day out. And I don't 205 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: know some of your like Buck, you live in New York, 206 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 1: is it you know? And they're dirt all of the streets. Yeah, 207 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: but there aren't kids walking around here, you know, calf 208 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 1: deep in raw sewage. I've been in places where that 209 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: was the norm. You just walk around their kids literally 210 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: walking around in in uh, you know, in urine fecal 211 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: matter up to higher than their ankles, and no one 212 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 1: even pays any attention to it because that's the way 213 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 1: it is. Um. I've been in places where life is 214 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: is short and many of the people in power think 215 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 1: that life is cheap and pretty meaningless unless it's their own. 216 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: And there's also trash everywhere. That's one of the biggest 217 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: Those who have spend time in the Third world know 218 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. That's one of the biggest the 219 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 1: things you notice about being in a country that is 220 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 1: orderly and also, I will tell you this, countries that 221 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: are more orderly and more free are also in better 222 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: shape in terms of things like you know, having clean streets. 223 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 1: Just reality. You go into places that are a mess, 224 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: and politically it is reflected in the trash that's just everywhere, 225 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 1: and I mean everywhere. Um, It's it's pretty stunning. And 226 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: I know for those of you who have experienced yourself, 227 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 1: you know, exactly what I'm talking about those of you 228 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: who have, and I'm telling you, at some point, every American, 229 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,559 Speaker 1: if you can look, it's expensive to go to. Although 230 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: there's some places to our south that certainly qualify as 231 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: desperately poor. But if you can get to some parts 232 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: of uh, some parts of South Asia, sub Saharan Africa, 233 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: the level of poverty that you will see is something 234 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: that will stay with you forever. And I don't think 235 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: any of the mean I'm never gonna make it to 236 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: North Korea. Even if they said, hey, Buck, we'd love 237 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: to have you, I would never go. I'm not because 238 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: I'm not sure they'd let me go when I wanted 239 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: to leave, given my background, I'm not. I'm not gonna 240 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 1: show up. I'm not gonna My parents are like, good, 241 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: good move Buck. Yeah, I'm not going to North Korea. 242 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: But that's the place where and I know people who 243 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: have been. They say that you come back from there 244 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: and you have a greater appreciation all that, all the 245 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: American flags and pictures, the Statue of Liberty, and you know, 246 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 1: just day to day American life that's around you.

I'm 272 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: a first generation Cuban American. I was born United States, 273 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: but my parents came from Cuba, you know, came legally 274 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: from Cuba. And I wasn't introducing my wife or at 275 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 1: that time girlfriend to my family and we were doing 276 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:13,959 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving dinner. Well then she's never had a Cuban traditional 277 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 1: dinner before. You know, Americans would have a turkey. Well, 278 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: we didn't do turkey, we didn't do Thanksgiving. We just 279 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 1: we just date. But we were celebrating a traditional Thanksgiving dinner, 280 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: but instead of a turkey, we were doing a pig. 281 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: And uh sure enough, when my mother we we prep 282 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,199 Speaker 1: everything before you know, the dinner happens like for the 283 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,959 Speaker 1: next day. My mother was prepping everything out out and 284 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: my wife was trying to help her, and my mother 285 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: said no, no, no, no, you can go away, you 286 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: go away.

She didn't know 296 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 1: I had the pig right behind me. I got a 297 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: nail stuck in the nose and a kite string and 298 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: I'll pulling behind me and she's like, oh my god, 299 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 1: you could actually kill that pig. And said, yeah, I 300 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 1: was not thinking about five ten minutes to kill him 301 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: and you know, prep him the next day if she's 302 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,959 Speaker 1: totally freaking out. At that time, I had two daughters. 303 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 1: I had a five and a four year old, and 304 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 1: they're oblivious to what's going on. And sure enough I 305 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: told my wife tells the kids that we're having pig 306 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: and they're asking where's it at And they take her 307 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 1: to the utility room where the pigs all slaughters spread 308 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: out on the rack to get ready to put in 309 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: the market.

Now there have been some 340 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: movie quotes that have tripped me up. So just go 341 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: easy on me, team, if you're gonna call him with 342 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 1: them today, you know, don't go don't give me. Don't 343 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: give me any of the like uh westerns from like 344 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: the nineteen fifties that don't really qualify as action movies, 345 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:53,959 Speaker 1: no quotes from that. Alright, it's already's already been rough 346 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 1: enough here, let's get into just for a moment. Now, 347 00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: we got a lot of lines. Let we'll take some calls. 348 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: It's free for all, free for all Wednesday. It's a 349 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 1: holiday holiday show. Everybody, hopefully. I was gonna try to 350 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: play some holiday music, but I was thinking, I think 351 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 1: Novembers too early for Christmas music. I know, this is 352 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: the thing. I think November, you know, I think December. Yes, 353 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: you throw on the Christmas music. And just because Christmas 354 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: music doesn't make it good. I'm just gonna put that 355 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: out there. But yes, Tyrone agrees, thank you. Amy is 356 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 1: also laughing, which I think me and she agrees to. 357 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: So just because you're calling it Christmas doesn't mean that 358 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: we should all and Love Actually, I will tell Love 359 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 1: Actually is a movie that gets worse the more you 360 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:40,640 Speaker 1: think about it and the more you've seen it. So 361 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:42,719 Speaker 1: I don't waste your time on Love. Actually. There's much 362 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: better Christmas movies. It's kind of a nihilistic Christmas movie. 363 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,239 Speaker 1: Love Actually, in some ways, I don't know. I'm not 364 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 1: I'm not a fan. So at least some parts of it, 365 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 1: some parts that are very nice, but you know, I'm not. 366 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:58,239 Speaker 1: I'm not a fan. Uh. I was gonna play some 367 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 1: thanks but what is Thanksgiving music? I don't even you know, 368 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: doesn't there's no music for thanks Giving? Kind of weird 369 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 1: when you think about it. It's kind of an oversight, 370 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 1: like why why isn't there something that we play for Thanksgiving? 371 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 1: But Christmas has all of its own music. I feel 372 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 1: like there's there's something missing here. Okay, Trump has a 373 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: Twitter account. I'm sure you're aware, and the Twitter account 374 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: is often used by journalists as like, let's just talk 375 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 1: about Trump's Twitter account. I try not to do that 376 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: because I don't find all that interesting and unless it's 377 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,399 Speaker 1: a matter of policy or national importance what Trump is 378 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: tweeting about, I don't tend to get too into it. 379 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: But this feud with LaVar Ball is is now. It's 380 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: not going to a whole new place. Let me just 381 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 1: give you some of what Trump has put here on Twitter, 382 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: and if you have, by the way, any thoughts on this, 383 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 1: please do let me know. Here's what LaVar balld say. 384 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Here's what Trump had to say about LaVar Ball. 385 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 1: It wasn't the White House, it wasn't the State Department. 386 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 1: It wasn't father LaVar's so called people on the ground 387 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: in China that got his son out of a long 388 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 1: term prison sentence. It was me, in all caps, too bad. 389 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 1: LaVar is just a poor man's version of Don King, 390 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: but without the hair mhmm. Just think, LaVar, you could 391 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,920 Speaker 1: have spent the next five to ten years during Thanksgiving 392 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: with your son in China, but no NBA contractor support you. 393 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 1: But remember, LaVar, shoplifting is not a little thing. It's 394 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 1: a really big deal, especially in China. Ungrateful, fool exclamation point. 395 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: Uh So, Yeah, that's the president. That's that's the President 396 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 1: United States, who's definitely mixing it up, definitely getting into 397 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: it with the father of an NBA player, Right, LaVar 398 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: ball is not is he famous himself tyrone in any 399 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: capacity other than as the father of an NBA player. 400 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: He's a charismatic five that's okay, but he's not a 401 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 1: He is not a public figure before this. He's been 402 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: a public figure for the last year or so because 403 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: of his son, and he has made a lot of 404 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 1: braggadocious things that his son is gonna be the greatest 405 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,639 Speaker 1: player of all time in a lot of ways. You 406 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 1: know how there's times where Trump will say something's the greatest. 407 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,160 Speaker 1: I think that's fair to say. Yeah, he also says 408 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 1: things everything's the greatest. He in a way, they're very 409 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: similar in in that way he both his son is 410 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: a very solid NBA player who could possibly have a 411 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 1: very good career to LaVar said, Oh, he's gonna be 412 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 1: better than Kobe Bryant, better than Jordan. Better. He's He's 413 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 1: like the like Oasis. You know, we're better than the Beatles. 414 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 1: Just why not? He said he could beat Michael Jordan 415 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: one on one in basketball. He's a guy who never 416 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: touched the NBA and barely played at a small college, 417 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,159 Speaker 1: but he would beat Michael Jordan one on one. I 418 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 1: get it, all right, So I said, he's a I 419 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: get it. He's a big talker. But like President Trump, 420 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know, guys, you could let me 421 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,439 Speaker 1: know what you think. I've said he and I'm like, 422 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: what how is this even? How is this even happening 423 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: that presidents are spotting to this guy. I mean, it's 424 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:07,679 Speaker 1: not a big deal. I'm just talking about it because 425 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: you know, when you got something well, so you know, 426 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: I'm a sports person. We've talked about this on the show, 427 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: and the sports people we kind of had his act 428 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 1: that kind of run its course. So when we saw 429 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 1: the initial tweet, not this particular tweet, we were like, Oh, 430 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 1: the whole world's gonna see what we've been seeing for 431 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: the last year that we were kind of done with, 432 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 1: like he tried to shop his reality show. This has 433 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: breathed a whole new life into the LaVar Ball business 434 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: and and career and all that stuff. Right before, if 435 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: he walked around the mall, sports fans probably now would 436 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: know who he was. I mean before these comments. Now 437 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: with the CNN interview and now the doubling up, now 438 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 1: now most people know who LaVar Ball is. And that's 439 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: not a great thing. Yeah, all right, well here we are. 440 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: The President's going after going after this guy on Twitter 441 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 1: and they're like they've been going back in worth. It's there. 442 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 1: You have it, Johnny and Alabama on the I Heart app. 443 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: Happy Thanksgiving, sir, Hey how you doing? But hey, I uh. 444 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,919 Speaker 1: I heard Tyrone play that thing about robot cop a 445 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: few minutes ago, and it made me think of something 446 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,880 Speaker 1: I saw a couple of days ago on YouTube. It 447 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: was one of those Boston Dynamics robots. I like to 448 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:29,640 Speaker 1: follow those things. They're doing a lot of advanced research. 449 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: Are you talking about the robot that was doing the 450 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 1: back flips that went viral early this week? Because that 451 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:38,160 Speaker 1: was pretty cool. Yeah, And you know I saw that, 452 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 1: and I'm telling you I told my brothers and my 453 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: friends at work. I said, you know what, when I 454 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 1: saw that, I got the same feeling that I got 455 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 1: when I saw the second playing before I enter the 456 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 1: World Trade Center. WHOA, what do you mean? I think? 457 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 1: I think I just saw something major happened here that 458 00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:01,120 Speaker 1: is signaling something in the future that might not be 459 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:05,399 Speaker 1: too good for us. I mean, Johnny, I wouldn't. I 460 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:10,679 Speaker 1: wouldn't compare the the the murder of three thousand Americans 461 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: to watching a video on YouTube. My friend. So let's 462 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,680 Speaker 1: let's yeah, let's let's not you know what I mean, 463 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 1: Like this is that's not I mean, I just got 464 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 1: the same feeling that when I was sitting there on 465 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: the couch watching that video of the buildings. No, no no, 466 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 1: I understand what you're trying to say. You know, let's 467 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 1: let's keep let's keep nine eleven comparisons out of the 468 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 1: out of the the YouTube video with the robot thing. 469 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 1: I you're saying, it's a big change in the future. 470 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 1: I I get that. I think I've never seen a 471 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 1: robot move. For those of you don't know we're talking about, 472 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 1: there's a rope. A video went viral this week of 473 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 1: a robot that kind of moves like a person and 474 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 1: actually does a back flip on its own and it's 475 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: kind of humanoid in its uh, in its construction. So um, 476 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 1: but yeah, man, it's you know, the the robotics of 477 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 1: the future are gonna be very you know what we 478 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 1: see in ten years people? Right now, I would be like, wow, 479 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 1: I had no idea that was possible.

Well, 485 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 1: I am doing my absolute best not to fall into 486 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 1: any conspiracy theory kind of traps. And I want to 487 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 1: refer to the Las Vegas shooting. And I have been 488 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: doing as much as I can do to research and 489 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 1: try to find answers to two or three very very 490 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: simple questions. But for the life of me, I mean, 491 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 1: we're basically just getting crickets now out of out of 492 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: Las Vegas, and they're even being sued by like seventeen 493 00:28:55,240 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: different media outlets for just not saying anything if you would, 494 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: let me just ask about three questions and see if 495 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: you know the answer, and if you don't, whether or 496 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: not we could find out. And these are these are 497 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: questions that were almost immediately answered in some of the 498 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: other types of these events. Okay, Mark, let's get to 499 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: what are your three questions? Okay, Number one, we were 500 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: told how many guns he had in the room, how 501 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 1: many guns he added his house, all about the the 502 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: things were equipped with bump stocks, he had piles of ammunition. 503 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 1: So here's the question, what guns were actually fired, what 504 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: guns were actually used at that shooting. I don't care 505 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: how many are sitting on the side of the wall. 506 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: I want to know what was being shot, what kind 507 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: of gun, what caliber, what ammo. Another thing that's been 508 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: really popular amongst the gun controlled people, and I'm getting 509 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 1: nothing out of this, is what size were the magazines? 510 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: Was he Was he firing belt fed ammunition or a 511 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 1: hundred round mags. I mean, there are a lot of 512 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: gun shots in those videos, but nobody has said anything 513 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 1: about magazines. And then in the last but not least category, Uh, 514 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: I'm kind of curious as to how many spent shell 515 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 1: casings are are laying on the floor because there's a 516 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 1: lot of talk about there was another shooter and blah 517 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 1: blah blah. But you know, we're being told this is 518 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 1: the only guy and he's dead. He shot himself dead. 519 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: We knew that just essentially walked in the room. And 520 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 1: I'm taking all that on face value. But you know, 521 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 1: if there's three hundred showcasings on the floor, I don't 522 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 1: think he can shoot you know, five seventy people. And 523 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: they even said that there were two hundred shots at 524 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 1: the guide the security guard out in the hall. So 525 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: these are again me, these are questions could easily be answered. 526 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: They were answered, you know, like in Sandy Hook. We 527 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: know what kind of gun eight guys supposedly used. But 528 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 1: the things about this that really matter, Mark, Look, you're 529 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 1: asking very you're asking important in astute questions. I will 530 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 1: say that off hand, remember this happened uh weeks ago. 531 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 1: Now I don't have the answers. Um I could ask 532 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: my team here to look while I'm on air, and 533 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: if we get some of those answers, and my nunderstanding 534 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 1: was and this could be wrong. This is just based 535 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 1: on my memory. So don't no one, no one should 536 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: take this to the bank. My understanding was They said 537 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: that it was A five It was five five six, 538 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 1: and it was an A R that was being or 539 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 1: a R fifteens that were being fired with bum stock modifications. 540 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 1: I don't think it was seven six too. I don't 541 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 1: think he was firing seven six two. But I will 542 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: also tell you that I had a bunch of people 543 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 1: that are listeners to this show, including UH some with 544 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 1: prior prior military and UH and you know, real real experience, 545 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 1: who said that the gunfire they heard in the video 546 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 1: sounded to them like belt fit. Now, I'm not a 547 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 1: I'm a guy with some weapons training. I'm not a 548 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 1: gun guy, and I don't pretend to be right. So 549 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,239 Speaker 1: I'm not somebody who could say, oh I can I 550 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 1: could tell based on the on the sound. I really 551 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 1: don't know. But I think that if if you really 552 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: listen to how they say things in the press conferences, 553 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: they say they found weapons with pump stocks. They did 554 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: not say or I didn't hear. Maybe again, I'm just 555 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 1: trying to get no I hear you. Look, Mark, we 556 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 1: we will. We have your questions here and obviously they'll 557 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: be on the on the podcast and so we can 558 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: play them back in and I'll dig in. I'll see 559 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 1: if we get you some answers. But there are still 560 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 1: some questions for which they do not yet have answers 561 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 1: in Las Vegas, most notably what was the guy's motive. 562 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 1: They still haven't given us a real answers to that. 563 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 1: But I have a happy Thanksgiving my friend, thank you 564 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: for calling.

Oh that's roadhouse. Patrick Swayze, which inexplicably 575 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: he knows like Taekwondo in that movie and just just cause, 576 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: you know, just cause, And there are some of the 577 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 1: most incredible, hilarious and awful moments in any action movie. 578 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 1: I think really ever made in that movie Roadhouse specifically, 579 00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: there are lines in that movie that it is, Wow, 580 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 1: it is incredible. Um, it's so bad it's good. I 581 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: think is maybe what you could say about Roadhouse. So 582 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 1: we have that. Um, I wanted to note that where 583 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: we're oh, we've got you know what, I'll let's take it. 584 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 1: We'll take some some calls here, Uh, Robert and Mississippi. 585 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 1: You've been patiently waiting, sir, what's up? Not much? I 586 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: know you're a well educated man, and I guess if 587 00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 1: my real question is what defines an action that I 588 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,480 Speaker 1: heard earlier you said you didn't want any votes from 589 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:40,240 Speaker 1: the fifties western but with something with what if? I said, uh, 590 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 1: once more into the breach, did you know that movie? 591 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,800 Speaker 1: And would that be an action movie? Well, like Henry, 592 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 1: we're talking, yeah, I mean, of course that's Shakespeare, my man. 593 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:55,280 Speaker 1: Of course I got that one. Um. The look the uh, 594 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:58,759 Speaker 1: it's action movie is a little bit of a it's 595 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 1: the more art than science, my friend. You know, you 596 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,440 Speaker 1: gotta you gotta be open to the gray areas here 597 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 1: a little bit. I mean, somebody would ask me, is 598 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 1: Brave Heart one of my all time favorite movies. Is 599 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:12,760 Speaker 1: that an action movie or is it a historical epic 600 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: or you know, it's not really clear. Does an action 601 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:19,240 Speaker 1: movie have to have firearms? If not, what's the difference 602 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 1: between an action movie and a period piece where there's 603 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 1: a lot of guys are around with swords axes? And 604 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: you know, my my brothers rightfully make fun of me. 605 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 1: They say that any movie where there's dudes with beards, swords, 606 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 1: axes and you know, uh, lots of meat being drunk, 607 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 1: that I'm into it. And that's probably true. So well, 608 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 1: let me let me throw you one last one and uh, 609 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 1: it's this from the seventies, so you may or may 610 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 1: not get it. But here's the law. Here's one of 611 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,799 Speaker 1: the short lines. And it doesn't have a lot of 612 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 1: shooting and bank robberies and everything else. So that's a 613 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 1: bit of a hant. It's my brother Suck, it's my 614 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 1: brother Buck. I have no idea, get hit the buzzer 615 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 1: on that. I got no idea.

But 622 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 1: the judges, I mean my team here in the hut, 623 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 1: you know, I go to them and they kind of 624 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 1: give me the you know, the thumbs up of the 625 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 1: thumbs down. A little interesting factoid. You know, there's some 626 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: dispute among historians as to whether, since I mentioned historical 627 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 1: epics in the Colosseum, when the Roman emperor would put 628 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 1: the thumb up or thumb down at the end of 629 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:51,680 Speaker 1: a martial contest in the arena between gladiators. Some we've 630 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 1: always thought that thumbs up meant, you know, keep him alive. 631 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: Thumbs down meant you know, stick him with the sword 632 00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:00,040 Speaker 1: or the trident for whatever you got. But there's some 633 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 1: storians who actually believe that it was thumbs down, keep 634 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 1: him here on earth, thumbs up to send him to 635 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:12,319 Speaker 1: the gods. Yeah, I know, right, mind blown. So think 636 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:16,880 Speaker 1: about that while you're making your candied yams. And I 637 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: don't know, maybe saw tang some spinach. See here's my 638 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 1: thing about stuffing. I'm just gonna put this out there. 639 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 1: I just think if you don't put some kind of 640 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,759 Speaker 1: meat in your stuffing. You're missing an opportunity. I just 641 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:31,319 Speaker 1: want to go on the record, right, sausage, maybe some 642 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 1: ground beef of something, I don't know, something. There should 643 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 1: be some form of meat inside your stuffing which goes 644 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:42,480 Speaker 1: inside a turkey, which is me. The avalanche of sex 645 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:47,799 Speaker 1: abuse and harassment allegations continues, As I said, every day, 646 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:51,839 Speaker 1: there's more. I can't I cannot remember the last week 647 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 1: day when there was not some report about another person 648 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:07,359 Speaker 1: member of Hollywood. Remember remember a person Hollywood member of Congress. Uh, 649 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:10,359 Speaker 1: this just has become the new normal for right now. 650 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,839 Speaker 1: At least you had the co founder of Pixar, which 651 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 1: I think makes like animated Uh what cars and um, well, 652 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:20,719 Speaker 1: I forget what the big I don't know. I don't 653 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 1: have kids, so I haven't seen a lot of not 654 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,440 Speaker 1: that I know. Cartoons aren't just for kids, but a 655 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: lot of the Pixar stuff I think is geared towards 656 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,840 Speaker 1: a younger audience. I know they've made a ton of money. 657 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 1: But the co founder Pixars on leave. No one's ever 658 00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:37,799 Speaker 1: heard of that guy before, but he's apparently apparently he 659 00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 1: had a crusty paw if you will, um, then we 660 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:46,880 Speaker 1: have some members of Congress and some politicians who have 661 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:53,799 Speaker 1: also gotten caught caught in the machinery of outing harassers interviewsers. 662 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 1: So that has happened as well. The Representative John Kanyers 663 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 1: has been accused of sex him is conduct by a 664 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 1: second woman. And I just want to say, well, there's 665 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:05,400 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff I want to talk about this, 666 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,960 Speaker 1: but one is that it's important that we have some 667 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:12,920 Speaker 1: sense of what we're talking about here. When I mean 668 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:17,840 Speaker 1: I mean specifics. It is important that we know because 669 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:25,400 Speaker 1: otherwise just the very broad terminology of harassment abuse. You know, 670 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 1: assault has to be actual physical unwanted right or you know, 671 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:34,400 Speaker 1: physical without consent. But you know, we need things like 672 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 1: people say that, you know, harassment allegations. Are we just 673 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,480 Speaker 1: talking about some words? Are we talking about? Yeah? I 674 00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,719 Speaker 1: got very a very annoyed earlier in the week when 675 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 1: some people who for inexplicable reasons are given very prominent 676 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 1: political purchase from which they uh make their pronouncements. All Right, 677 00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:00,839 Speaker 1: I gots the alliteration was unintentional, But this saying that, oh, well, 678 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 1: Clarence Thomas, you know that was It wasn't Bill Clinton 679 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 1: that got us going in this whole direction with hart 680 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 1: hyperpartisan defense of sexual misconduct. It was Clarence Thomas. Clarence 681 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,800 Speaker 1: Thomas was accused of making some comments. From what I understand, 682 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 1: from what I remember, that's it. Tims didn't assault anyone, 683 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:22,320 Speaker 1: didn't abuse anybody physically, none of none of that happened. Okay, 684 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:28,879 Speaker 1: So there should be immediately separation between words and actions, 685 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 1: and and then within actions, is it just professional retaliation 686 00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 1: or something that's again very wrong, but that would be 687 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:41,360 Speaker 1: in a civil legal proceeding versus anything that's physical and 688 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:47,280 Speaker 1: and uh abusive or uh falls in the category of assault, 689 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 1: and that would be a criminal a possible criminal proceedings. 690 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,720 Speaker 1: So it's just hard to keep all of this straight 691 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 1: because we're just seeing the headlines and they don't necessarily 692 00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 1: have all that much in the way of inform ation. Too. 693 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 1: Let us know, well, what are we talking what are 694 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:06,400 Speaker 1: we really talking about here? Was this someone said something 695 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,320 Speaker 1: in the in the nine nineties that was really uh, 696 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 1: you know, gross or rude? I don't know. I don't 697 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 1: know if somebody saying something thirty years ago that was 698 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 1: inappropriate for a workplace setting is really a new story 699 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:22,759 Speaker 1: that I need to hear right now. I'm just I'm 700 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 1: trying to draw some lines, trying to draw some boundaries. 701 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,880 Speaker 1: I think somebody assaulting somebody, sure that we want to know, 702 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 1: but somebody's saying something that would seem to me to 703 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:37,239 Speaker 1: fall into the category of Okay, are we are some 704 00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,239 Speaker 1: people now starting to take advantage of this moment to 705 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 1: settle old scores or and we should be very aware 706 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:47,840 Speaker 1: of that. I should note that there was an exchange 707 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:53,840 Speaker 1: with Jake Tapper and a woman who writes for teen Vogue, 708 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,439 Speaker 1: and I give I give credit where it's due. And 709 00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 1: Tapper took this nonsense put out by this woman named 710 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 1: Emily Linden too. It took the nonsense to the woodshed, 711 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:11,960 Speaker 1: so to speak. I mean, really, Uh laid waste to 712 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 1: the The contention here by Emily Lindon, who writes for 713 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 1: teen Vogue, which I don't even know teen Vogue was 714 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:19,279 Speaker 1: still a thing, to be honest with you, but it 715 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:23,240 Speaker 1: is a thing. She wrote. Sorry, if some innocent men's 716 00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:26,400 Speaker 1: reputations have to take a hit in the process of 717 00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:30,680 Speaker 1: undoing the patriarchy, that is a price I am absolutely 718 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:35,479 Speaker 1: willing to pay. Uh. Tapper responded, I'm guessing you didn't 719 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 1: get a good grade for your seventh grade book report 720 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 1: on to Kill a mocking Bird. And then she went 721 00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 1: back and said and and basically said that he was 722 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 1: piling on. And his response was, I read the thread. 723 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,759 Speaker 1: You said, if some innocent men's reputations have to take 724 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,719 Speaker 1: a hit in the process of undoing the patriarchy, that 725 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 1: is a price I'm absolutely willing to pay. That's immoral, 726 00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:57,680 Speaker 1: and it's not a price you'd be willing to pay, 727 00:42:57,680 --> 00:42:59,839 Speaker 1: by the way, it would be innocent men doing that. 728 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: When I've been telling you that this is going to 729 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 1: be weaponized and abused in the future, especially for political purposes, 730 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:10,120 Speaker 1: it's a certainty, okay, it's just a question of when 731 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:13,720 Speaker 1: and what cases and what instances. And you're already seeing 732 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:17,399 Speaker 1: some from the left, no surprise, who will come out 733 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: and say that, Yeah, we're gonna We're gonna do that, 734 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:22,400 Speaker 1: We're gonna abuse it. Don't worry that that's coming. I 735 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 1: should note that asra Klein, who was a very well 736 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 1: regarded punned it in left wing and far left circles. 737 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,239 Speaker 1: He was like under the abdministration, that guy was like 738 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:39,120 Speaker 1: practically the king of MSNBC. Um he I will never 739 00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 1: forget said that if some men, you know, if if 740 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:47,319 Speaker 1: some men are wrongly accused of rape on campus as 741 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 1: part of dealing with the sexual assault type of epic 742 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:52,160 Speaker 1: on campus, you know, that's just it's good if men 743 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,480 Speaker 1: are going to be scared because of that that I'm paraphrasing, 744 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:57,520 Speaker 1: that's basically he said. I thought that was a terrifying 745 00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:00,279 Speaker 1: thing for somebody who's got a platform I'm in a 746 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:02,880 Speaker 1: public and electual to say. But this is a a 747 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 1: sentiment that is held on the left. We have to 748 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 1: be careful that this, this purge of the perverts, does 749 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:15,400 Speaker 1: not turn into something akin to a French Revolution, you know, 750 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:20,279 Speaker 1: meets the the sexual counter revolution or whatever you'd call it. 751 00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:24,360 Speaker 1: But remember La Terreur, which was during the French Revolution, 752 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:30,720 Speaker 1: became an all consuming movement of violence for violence's own sake, 753 00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,239 Speaker 1: and people who, you know, Robespierre and people who were 754 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 1: at first at the forefront of the movement were eventually 755 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:40,680 Speaker 1: even consumed by it themselves and executed. We don't want 756 00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:44,879 Speaker 1: this to turn into an inquisition of sorts. This needs 757 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:49,880 Speaker 1: to be based on facts and fairness and logic and reason. 758 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:52,440 Speaker 1: And if we don't keep a very close eye on this, 759 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 1: there will be there will be reputational and professional casualties 760 00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:03,880 Speaker 1: at a minimum from this movement of allegations that are 761 00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 1: coming out. I mean, we still no one's really encapsulated 762 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:09,680 Speaker 1: what to call this, but this is this is dominating 763 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,040 Speaker 1: the news day in and day out, and it has 764 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:16,320 Speaker 1: really changed the changed the landscape of this whole issue 765 00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:20,239 Speaker 1: of sexual harassment and sexual assault. I should also know 766 00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:22,719 Speaker 1: that there was I think it was Dylan Buyers, who 767 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:26,480 Speaker 1: is at CNN. I want to say I should note 768 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 1: that he tweeted out that it's just that basically we're 769 00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 1: losing a lot of talent in the media because of 770 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 1: these allegations. And I just think that's such a if 771 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:43,319 Speaker 1: you're looking for a way to encapsulate the arrogant and 772 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,040 Speaker 1: delusional point of view that many journalists have. That was 773 00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,719 Speaker 1: a great moment because one who cares based on what 774 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:51,600 Speaker 1: a lot of the guys like Charlie Rose, they didn't 775 00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:53,959 Speaker 1: deserve the job in the first place, and they should 776 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:57,879 Speaker 1: have been fired a long time ago. And Charlie Rose, 777 00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna should have to empty out his pocket. 778 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 1: I don't know what the statute is on civil actions 779 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:05,600 Speaker 1: for sexual harassment, but you know, he should have to 780 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 1: write some big check to some people. But also this 781 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:13,479 Speaker 1: notion that some of these prominent particularly they're really talking 782 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 1: to Democrats. Here's some of these prominent journalists that there's 783 00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:19,120 Speaker 1: such a loss. I'm just gonna come out and say it. 784 00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:20,960 Speaker 1: I don't even know what Charlie Rose was famous in 785 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 1: the first place. I think he's just been around a 786 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:27,319 Speaker 1: long time, friends with the right people in the executive 787 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 1: suites of the various news organizations, you know. I mean 788 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:35,080 Speaker 1: I could sort of do a soft voice interview with 789 00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:37,680 Speaker 1: a dark backdrop too. I don't really get I know, 790 00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,480 Speaker 1: and I know hundreds of people who can very well. 791 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:43,239 Speaker 1: There's nothing special about Charlie Rose. It was all just 792 00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:46,640 Speaker 1: a construct. Very lucky to have come up at a 793 00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 1: time when if you played your cards right, you could 794 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 1: be given an incredibly uh rarefied perch in the media 795 00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 1: and be really overpaid and everyone's supposed to think you're 796 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:07,120 Speaker 1: so great when the reality is, well, why I don't 797 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:09,239 Speaker 1: remember working as an intern at CVS Eving News and 798 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:11,799 Speaker 1: everybody walked around there like they were worshiping Dan Rather. 799 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:14,960 Speaker 1: And this is before everyone this is before the whole 800 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,680 Speaker 1: National Guard document thing and I was eighteen years old, 801 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:19,960 Speaker 1: and I was like, why does everyone think this guy 802 00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:24,360 Speaker 1: so special? Nothing special about him? Sitting here in meetings 803 00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:26,600 Speaker 1: here and talks not that smart, it's not that interesting. 804 00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:29,480 Speaker 1: I don't get it. Well, you know, has just been 805 00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 1: in the game a long time and sounds like this 806 00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:35,480 Speaker 1: when he's on television. You know, there's notion that, oh 807 00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:38,439 Speaker 1: we've we've lost all this this talented media think about 808 00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 1: it the other way. And bid Buyers, I should note, 809 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 1: has gotten annihilated on Twitter. I don't even know the guy. 810 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 1: I think he writes for CNN, has ever see an 811 00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 1: as he's see a un guy of Dylan Buyers. I 812 00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 1: don't know. I think I'm I'm going from Emory here. 813 00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:53,040 Speaker 1: I think that's the guy who put out that tweet. 814 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:59,360 Speaker 1: If not apologies. Uh. But then there's also forget about 815 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:01,719 Speaker 1: the guys that we're losing, whether they're talent they or not. 816 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 1: I would offer to you, first of all, we don't 817 00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:06,920 Speaker 1: care because there's their scum. But second of all, uh, 818 00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 1: they're not that talented. They're just really lucky. You have 819 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:12,319 Speaker 1: a lot of that in media. In fact, I would 820 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:14,960 Speaker 1: all I would say to you that in in the 821 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 1: TV news business, look, you know some of them, some 822 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,920 Speaker 1: people they write and I will radio is the hardest. 823 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 1: Radio is a lot harder than TV. Don't tell any 824 00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 1: I told you that, but it's true. Radio is a 825 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:27,080 Speaker 1: lot harder than TV. Requires a lot more energy, a 826 00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 1: lot more prep. There's no question. That's why I love 827 00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 1: doing this, because it separates certain people who just want 828 00:48:33,160 --> 00:48:35,520 Speaker 1: to be on camera and want to male and female, 829 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:39,000 Speaker 1: just want to look pretty and sound authoritative from people 830 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:42,239 Speaker 1: who have something to say, a lot to say, and 831 00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:48,400 Speaker 1: really care about their information, their message, the stories. So anyway, 832 00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:50,800 Speaker 1: that's a little plug for what I think radio so special. 833 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,960 Speaker 1: Its a powerful but this, you know, oh Charlie Rose, 834 00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:55,839 Speaker 1: what we do without them? Let's keep in mind that 835 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 1: there are young women who were probably never the same 836 00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:05,239 Speaker 1: professionally and personally after there Charlie Rose incidents. There was 837 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 1: a lot of talent. I'm sure that whether we're talking Weinstein, 838 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:13,600 Speaker 1: Charlie Rose, uh, Brent Ratting, are a lot of very talented, 839 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:17,880 Speaker 1: hard working, decent people women in these cases, although not 840 00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:20,120 Speaker 1: I mean there's also the Kevin Spacey stuff, right. There 841 00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:23,560 Speaker 1: have been some men that were the victims of predators 842 00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:26,840 Speaker 1: to uh, but a lot of talented women were probably 843 00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:29,520 Speaker 1: driven out of the industry because of this, or never 844 00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 1: really reached their full potential because this was really damaging 845 00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:36,480 Speaker 1: for them. It really scarred them. So I just there's 846 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:40,120 Speaker 1: such a there's an arrogance among journalists, among media types, 847 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 1: especially those are this is all they've done. I'm just 848 00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:44,439 Speaker 1: gonna say it. People who haven't ever had another job, 849 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:46,879 Speaker 1: I think have a very different view of this. Like 850 00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:49,399 Speaker 1: just the other day, I was speaking to some friends 851 00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:51,759 Speaker 1: when I was in d C and and some other 852 00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:53,919 Speaker 1: people were in the room. We're having a meeting talking 853 00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:56,239 Speaker 1: about some work stuff, and I told him the story 854 00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:57,839 Speaker 1: about how I ended up doing this. They're like, what 855 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:00,680 Speaker 1: you were like, You're gonna is the school and then 856 00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:02,120 Speaker 1: all of a sudden you're like, Hey, I'm gonna work 857 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:05,239 Speaker 1: for a website and do some TV maybe Yep. I 858 00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:07,840 Speaker 1: just kind of decided to do it. I've had another 859 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:10,840 Speaker 1: job that wasn't Oh look at me, I wanna you know, 860 00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:13,359 Speaker 1: I want to be on TV or whatever. So I 861 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:15,279 Speaker 1: think there's a very different perspective that a lot of 862 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:20,000 Speaker 1: us who had previous lives before media have about this. Uh. 863 00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:23,560 Speaker 1: And we know we're we're not special. You know, we're 864 00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:27,440 Speaker 1: no we're not we're so great. It's we're lucky, we're fortunate, 865 00:50:28,200 --> 00:50:30,560 Speaker 1: and it's because of all of you, the listener or 866 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:32,600 Speaker 1: the viewer, that any of us even have a job. 867 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 1: So it should be with with a tremendous humility that 868 00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:39,280 Speaker 1: anybody who's lucky enough to work in the media industry 869 00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,440 Speaker 1: approaches their job every day. That's how I feel about it, 870 00:50:42,640 --> 00:50:45,719 Speaker 1: and I just I just think it's it's amazing you 871 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:49,799 Speaker 1: get these these journalists who take this attitude of oh, 872 00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 1: we're so and by the way, now, if you're a 873 00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:53,360 Speaker 1: big journalist, you want to be on TV two. There 874 00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:56,880 Speaker 1: are very few big name print journalists who aren't desperate 875 00:50:56,960 --> 00:50:59,360 Speaker 1: or you know, at all times trying to get on 876 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:04,440 Speaker 1: TV in one way or another. Yeah. Um, But there 877 00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 1: are very few who I think on the left these days, 878 00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:12,360 Speaker 1: who are trying to get on TV. Would be the 879 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:15,319 Speaker 1: exception to the rule here, and the rule is that 880 00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:18,759 Speaker 1: you can look at the arrogance of a TV news 881 00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:22,680 Speaker 1: journalist and know that it's really just there's an inverse 882 00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:26,359 Speaker 1: relationship between arrogance and actual ability, right, So, so many 883 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:29,320 Speaker 1: of the most arrogant that Charlie roses the Dan rather's 884 00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:32,440 Speaker 1: the yeah you can go down the list of all 885 00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:34,680 Speaker 1: these different guys that have had you know, Peter Jennings, 886 00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:36,840 Speaker 1: I'm not I'm sorry, not Peter Jennings. Who was the 887 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:38,719 Speaker 1: guy pardon me, he passed away? Wasn't there was a 888 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,000 Speaker 1: thing about him. Who's the guy that did the whole 889 00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 1: Uh what's his n Africa in his name? Now? No? No, no, no, 890 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,200 Speaker 1: the guy who said, you know he was there on 891 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:50,839 Speaker 1: the front lines with Delta Forest doing fly kicks and 892 00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:54,640 Speaker 1: you know Brian Williams, thank you Brian Williams. Right, he 893 00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:59,279 Speaker 1: was like, stand aside, Delta, I'm clearing this house. Um, 894 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:00,960 Speaker 1: that guy, That's what I was trying to think of. 895 00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:05,680 Speaker 1: And Delta was like, really, he's like that's right. Rock 896 00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,680 Speaker 1: and roll baby, got my silenced MP five here and 897 00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:11,960 Speaker 1: my pencil to take notes for my story tonight. Brian 898 00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:17,200 Speaker 1: Williams out. Um. But the the more arrogant they are, 899 00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 1: usually it's the more insecure they are, And that's why 900 00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:22,080 Speaker 1: they take the attitudes that they do. It's because they're 901 00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:23,680 Speaker 1: actually just not that good at what they do. They're 902 00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:27,200 Speaker 1: not that talented. They've just been really, really lucky. A 903 00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:28,759 Speaker 1: little bit. I turned in more of a discourse on 904 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:31,320 Speaker 1: media than sexual harassment, which I guess we could return 905 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:34,400 Speaker 1: to it in a moment here eight four four to 906 00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:39,839 Speaker 1: five Thanksgiving thoughts story. He wanted me to talk about 907 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,920 Speaker 1: the news. Whatever you got, light them up, we'll be 908 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,840 Speaker 1: right back. You know, there is a member of Congress 909 00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:50,400 Speaker 1: who has been supportive of women for many, many years. 910 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:54,680 Speaker 1: He is quiet, he is confident, he is powerful, but 911 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:59,000 Speaker 1: he has impeccable integrity on all of our issues. Gift 912 00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:04,439 Speaker 1: John Kanye is if ground of a blow Yeah about 913 00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:13,359 Speaker 1: about John Kanyer's representative from Michigan Democrat. Uh. He now 914 00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:18,799 Speaker 1: has fellow Democrats telling him that he calling for his 915 00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:24,480 Speaker 1: resignation because of now multiple credible sexual right, there's more. 916 00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:26,359 Speaker 1: We got more than one once, it's more than one 917 00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:27,880 Speaker 1: than he Oh is it just? Is it one or 918 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,440 Speaker 1: the more than one? Oh? Yeah, I'm multiple too. Okay, 919 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:35,960 Speaker 1: So he's got multiple what they're calling credible allegations against him. 920 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:38,960 Speaker 1: I haven't seen, Uh, I haven't seen much in the 921 00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:42,399 Speaker 1: way of the specifics. Representative Kathleen Rice of New York 922 00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:46,040 Speaker 1: says that Representative Kanyor should resign. I reviewed the allegations 923 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:48,560 Speaker 1: against him, and they are as credible as they are repulsive. 924 00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:50,719 Speaker 1: So I guess she has access to it. I should 925 00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:53,920 Speaker 1: have the Congress, because Congress likes to live by it literally, 926 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:57,920 Speaker 1: its own set of rules, whether it's inside, inside, or trading. 927 00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,440 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's right. They exempted themselves from that. You 928 00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:04,840 Speaker 1: go to prison, my wonderful friends in the audience, You 929 00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:07,120 Speaker 1: go to prison if you do inside or trading. If 930 00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:09,319 Speaker 1: you're in Congress. You know, they're busy. They gotta make 931 00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:10,920 Speaker 1: a little a few extra bucks on the side with 932 00:54:11,400 --> 00:54:15,239 Speaker 1: inside information they have from Congress. You know, you know, 933 00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:17,640 Speaker 1: it's like whether they're gonna pass an infrastructure bill or not, 934 00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:20,400 Speaker 1: for example, that that may be kind of a valuable 935 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 1: thing to know. Um anyway, and also Obamacare that exempted 936 00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:27,640 Speaker 1: themselves from that. Congress likes to live by two sets 937 00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:33,239 Speaker 1: of rules. They hide sexual harassment settlements from us. They 938 00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:36,000 Speaker 1: are kept confidential as part of the process that Congress 939 00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:40,279 Speaker 1: has set up for itself. But Kanyers uh isn't is 940 00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:42,680 Speaker 1: in a little trouble here. People are asking to step down. 941 00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 1: The only allegation that I'm familiar with in terms of 942 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:50,960 Speaker 1: the specifics with regard two Congressman Kanyers is that he 943 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:53,640 Speaker 1: made an advance on a woman and then fired her 944 00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:59,040 Speaker 1: when she said no basically, which is which is really bad. 945 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,440 Speaker 1: I mean in the sexual harassed in the non criminal, 946 00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:05,160 Speaker 1: but sexual harassment in the office realm, that's really bad. 947 00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:09,640 Speaker 1: That's the that's a big problem. Uh. And I should 948 00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:12,440 Speaker 1: note Al Frankin who had all these women come and 949 00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:17,239 Speaker 1: write a letter for him from SNL as though you 950 00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:20,920 Speaker 1: know that that doesn't I don't know. They're not addressing 951 00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:24,680 Speaker 1: the specifics allegations. They're saying, no, he's really nice. Okay, 952 00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:31,160 Speaker 1: Well that's that's not going to change anything here. Uh. 953 00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:33,560 Speaker 1: Al Franken now has two more women who have come 954 00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:37,600 Speaker 1: out and said that he has grouped them. So there's 955 00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 1: definitely there's a there's a problem here. Uh. Robert in 956 00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:46,080 Speaker 1: Georgia listening on the I heart op. Hey Robert, Yes, sir, 957 00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:48,319 Speaker 1: and by the way, thank you as always for having 958 00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:50,759 Speaker 1: one of the most intelligent and fightful commentary shows on 959 00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:54,080 Speaker 1: the air.

If it doesn't, 973 00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:35,719 Speaker 1: I say, slipping standards, but it leads to communism and 974 00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:37,239 Speaker 1: we don't want that, and we don't want that.

He is a professional stand up comic, a 985 00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:15,040 Speaker 1: former New York City cab driver, and radio host of 986 00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:19,360 Speaker 1: Off the Meter with Jimmy Paila. Jimmy, he's my friend. 987 00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:22,400 Speaker 1: How are you doing, good Man? Happy Thanksgiving Eve. That's 988 00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:24,760 Speaker 1: a soun. I'm starting that now, Happy Thanksgiving Eve? And 989 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 1: I agree. I agree. I think that's nothing we we 990 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:28,880 Speaker 1: should put out there. I also, I want to get 991 00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:31,240 Speaker 1: your quick take on I think there should be Thanksgiving music. 992 00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:34,840 Speaker 1: We have Christmas music. Well, by that metric, it should 993 00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:37,800 Speaker 1: start in June. It would start late the day after 994 00:57:37,880 --> 00:57:41,240 Speaker 1: Memorial Day. We're pretty much my wife, by the way, 995 00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:44,600 Speaker 1: somehow got roped into that. And we have Christmas lights 996 00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:48,120 Speaker 1: up right now, which means like I basically do live 997 00:57:48,120 --> 00:57:49,760 Speaker 1: in like a CVS. At this point, we're gonna be 998 00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:52,840 Speaker 1: putting out Valentine to Day candy next week. It's just 999 00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:55,360 Speaker 1: we're all living on an accelerated pace box. Yeah. I 1000 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:58,360 Speaker 1: just whatever CVS offers me in the seasonal aisle, that's 1001 00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:01,200 Speaker 1: what I go for, you know, especially if there's if 1002 00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:03,440 Speaker 1: they're giving me like off or something, that's that's how 1003 00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:05,840 Speaker 1: I roll. So, Jimmie, can I get your take off. 1004 00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:11,640 Speaker 1: Are you familiar with the Texas Congressman Joe Barton situation, Yes, 1005 00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:15,800 Speaker 1: which sounds a lot like revenge porn to me, by 1006 00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:17,160 Speaker 1: the way, Like me, what I mean by that is 1007 00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:19,320 Speaker 1: if they were in a consensual relationship, he sent a 1008 00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:22,080 Speaker 1: girl a picture and then she outed it. Isn't that 1009 00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:26,479 Speaker 1: in a lot of ways revenge porn or know that? What? Okay? Now, see, 1010 00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:29,040 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people jump right to it's 1011 00:58:29,080 --> 00:58:31,480 Speaker 1: I mean, the photo is blurred, it's out there, you know, 1012 00:58:31,520 --> 00:58:35,400 Speaker 1: it's gone slip sites. People go for the you know, 1013 00:58:35,480 --> 00:58:38,320 Speaker 1: the blurred versions are out there. Um, and he's a 1014 00:58:38,360 --> 00:58:41,120 Speaker 1: he's an older guy, So I think there's a bit 1015 00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:44,000 Speaker 1: of a shock that. You know, usually we think of 1016 00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:46,400 Speaker 1: the millennial generation, they're the ones that are doing this 1017 00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:50,800 Speaker 1: kind of stuff. But to your point about a possible 1018 00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:56,480 Speaker 1: revenge porn situation, this same conduct in I know California 1019 00:58:56,560 --> 00:58:59,400 Speaker 1: for example, would in fact be a criminal act on 1020 00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:02,560 Speaker 1: the part of a leaker. That is law now, so 1021 00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:05,360 Speaker 1: you know, there are our conceptions of this are changing, 1022 00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:07,320 Speaker 1: and I think it's you know that this has been 1023 00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:09,840 Speaker 1: he somebody clearly out at him to really hurt him 1024 00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:12,320 Speaker 1: right out of these photos to really hurt him right now, 1025 00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:14,880 Speaker 1: given all the other stuff that's happening out there. But 1026 00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:18,800 Speaker 1: there's nothing illegal about what he did at all. No 1027 00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:20,880 Speaker 1: one even suggests that there is. As you said, it's 1028 00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:24,680 Speaker 1: believed that this was a consensual relationship between two adults. 1029 00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:28,240 Speaker 1: It shows poor judgment. But I think some people out 1030 00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:31,080 Speaker 1: there are thinking, Okay, so if my wife and I 1031 00:59:31,360 --> 00:59:33,200 Speaker 1: and now this wasn't his wife, I know it was, 1032 00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:35,480 Speaker 1: it was you know, he was getting a divorce. Wasn't 1033 00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:37,880 Speaker 1: a divorce. But you know, if if my wife and I, 1034 00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:41,200 Speaker 1: at some point in the future we're to get divorced 1035 00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:44,240 Speaker 1: and and I want to run for office, and she 1036 00:59:44,920 --> 00:59:48,000 Speaker 1: put all of our exchanges out there, including some stuff 1037 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:49,960 Speaker 1: that husbands and wives might want to share with each other, 1038 00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:52,640 Speaker 1: does that disqualify you from public office? I mean, I 1039 00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:56,480 Speaker 1: think people need to start thinking about this. Yea. By 1040 00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:59,080 Speaker 1: the way, I would say absolutely not. So go ahead, Jimmy. 1041 01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:03,080 Speaker 1: Oh no. If me and Jenny failer break up, that's 1042 01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:06,320 Speaker 1: the end. You know, I don't you know this? This 1043 01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:09,040 Speaker 1: phone goes immediately like I carry around a vial of 1044 01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:11,080 Speaker 1: arsenic just in case. Like it's one of my great 1045 01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 1: fears is when people talk even about like talking dogs, 1046 01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:17,400 Speaker 1: because your dog sees so many things that would that 1047 01:00:17,400 --> 01:00:20,480 Speaker 1: would you know, potentially sink any ambitions you might have 1048 01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:23,640 Speaker 1: in the political realm. But the reality is, I think 1049 01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:26,720 Speaker 1: what's going on, like especially right now, is we've kind 1050 01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:31,200 Speaker 1: of just incentivized any time any type of sexual activity, 1051 01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:34,360 Speaker 1: like in this instance, it's not actually bad. Like I 1052 01:00:34,440 --> 01:00:37,640 Speaker 1: was talking about this earlier with somebody, it's almost as 1053 01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:41,480 Speaker 1: if you know, we owe Anthony Weener an apology because 1054 01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:45,920 Speaker 1: you know, obviously the creep and is clearly very very illegal, 1055 01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:47,680 Speaker 1: right that you can't forget that. You can't forget that 1056 01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:50,520 Speaker 1: on any level. What I'm saying is, you know, it 1057 01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:54,040 Speaker 1: seemed like such a far more innocent time when we 1058 01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:57,440 Speaker 1: were just upset about messages like this, Like this struck 1059 01:00:57,480 --> 01:00:59,440 Speaker 1: me as something that should have come out tomorrow. Is 1060 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:02,920 Speaker 1: a throwback Thursday, because it really does hearken back to 1061 01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:06,280 Speaker 1: a simpler time of sexual misconduct, when you know, phone 1062 01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:08,800 Speaker 1: pictures are nothing. Well, I will say that I was 1063 01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:11,280 Speaker 1: I was on set at a at a non at 1064 01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:16,040 Speaker 1: a non Fox television show while back, and a female 1065 01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:18,800 Speaker 1: journalist said, you know, we are going to reach a 1066 01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:22,600 Speaker 1: point in the future when when when fully like fully 1067 01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:26,000 Speaker 1: naked selfie. Uh that's been leaked out into the public 1068 01:01:26,040 --> 01:01:29,240 Speaker 1: by somebody no longer becomes something that even gets all 1069 01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:32,800 Speaker 1: that much outrage or attention or anything, because it's so common. 1070 01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:35,840 Speaker 1: If people see the numbers on how many individuals share 1071 01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:40,200 Speaker 1: intimate photos with their intimate partner, I know, for people listening, 1072 01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:42,560 Speaker 1: they're like, who does that? If you're under the age 1073 01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:46,240 Speaker 1: of forty, the numbers are pretty high. They're actually staggering. 1074 01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:49,000 Speaker 1: And what I'm always amazed at about that is in 1075 01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:51,200 Speaker 1: this instance, it's like a full body shot, so there's 1076 01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:53,280 Speaker 1: really no good way to do it. But I don't 1077 01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:56,200 Speaker 1: know who these guys are that are sending their own unit. 1078 01:01:56,320 --> 01:01:59,480 Speaker 1: Don't you have like a stunt unit. Don't you have 1079 01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:02,320 Speaker 1: like a second string that you send in And instances 1080 01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:05,400 Speaker 1: such as this like that, I've never I was always 1081 01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:07,040 Speaker 1: amazed that people who spend their own thing, but they 1082 01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:09,720 Speaker 1: do it, and it's like a lot of people's opener. 1083 01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:12,280 Speaker 1: And I almost feel like I should blame breath far 1084 01:02:12,400 --> 01:02:15,600 Speaker 1: for this, because yeah, he was one of the ones 1085 01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:17,880 Speaker 1: early on that was that was known to known to 1086 01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:20,280 Speaker 1: have done this. So look and again this was not 1087 01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:23,040 Speaker 1: as I understand it. Texas Congressman Joe Barden. He wasn't 1088 01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:27,280 Speaker 1: sending this to employees or people in the workplace. This 1089 01:02:27,520 --> 01:02:30,280 Speaker 1: was to his girlfriend. Well, the big you know what 1090 01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:32,479 Speaker 1: the big problem is though, man, Like every we only 1091 01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:36,680 Speaker 1: have one gear now for the rage machine. So every 1092 01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:42,440 Speaker 1: offense is grouped under the same umbrella. Meaning somehow, you know, 1093 01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:44,840 Speaker 1: Roy Moore doing what he might have done with an 1094 01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:48,520 Speaker 1: underage girl falls into the same category as somebody saying 1095 01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:51,200 Speaker 1: something crass. Well, I was just talking about this. The 1096 01:02:51,600 --> 01:02:54,320 Speaker 1: people that are coming out with oh, some comments were 1097 01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:57,240 Speaker 1: made in the nineties, I'm like, wow, that's those must 1098 01:02:57,240 --> 01:03:02,919 Speaker 1: have been some really profoundly disturbing word. I think we're 1099 01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:05,400 Speaker 1: really reaching here. But I think the danger of it 1100 01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:09,960 Speaker 1: is because there's such a big proliferation of this stuff, 1101 01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:13,280 Speaker 1: and all of it is identified as the most vile 1102 01:03:13,360 --> 01:03:16,360 Speaker 1: and heinous, reprehensible thing in the world. If everything is 1103 01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:18,480 Speaker 1: the worst thing in the world, that means nothing matters, 1104 01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:20,600 Speaker 1: Meaning if everything is defensive, nothing is defensive. And I 1105 01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:24,000 Speaker 1: think people have already become desensitized because the think back 1106 01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:27,360 Speaker 1: to this Texas situation, there was a time where that 1107 01:03:27,440 --> 01:03:30,960 Speaker 1: picture would have owned the news cycle for forty hours. 1108 01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:33,240 Speaker 1: Even think about a guy. Oh yeah, in an in 1109 01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:37,800 Speaker 1: an era of Harvey Weinstein employing like an army of 1110 01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:41,360 Speaker 1: of of people to help him and to defame accusers 1111 01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:44,320 Speaker 1: and everything else. Like this Texas congressman thing is is 1112 01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:47,640 Speaker 1: very is very low on the scale of of the 1113 01:03:47,680 --> 01:03:50,480 Speaker 1: outrage meter. Oh yeah, this guy's a mom and pop. 1114 01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:52,560 Speaker 1: You know, I really feel bit for two in a 1115 01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:56,640 Speaker 1: weird level, like somewhere somewhere Mitt Romney has to be 1116 01:03:56,720 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 1: thinking about the binders full of women comment and feel 1117 01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:02,560 Speaker 1: like he got a raw deal, Like we ran him 1118 01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:05,800 Speaker 1: out of town for saying he had binders full of women. Oh, 1119 01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:07,640 Speaker 1: he definitely got a raw deal. That was that was 1120 01:04:07,760 --> 01:04:10,600 Speaker 1: completely It was so cynical when the Democrats are running 1121 01:04:10,680 --> 01:04:13,440 Speaker 1: with that stuff. It's like mid Romney is like, you know, 1122 01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:18,320 Speaker 1: a cross between ned Flanders and Thurston how the third 1123 01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:20,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, the guy is not a problem 1124 01:04:20,480 --> 01:04:22,840 Speaker 1: for for women at all, and he said he one 1125 01:04:22,880 --> 01:04:26,200 Speaker 1: of the higher people's That's that's the one thing that 1126 01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:29,880 Speaker 1: you know they're reaching. You know, that whole strategy on 1127 01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:32,320 Speaker 1: the left is, you know, label the opposition and stifle debate. 1128 01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:34,320 Speaker 1: So if you can depict somebody's the worst guy in 1129 01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:36,320 Speaker 1: the world, you know, that's kind of the strategy. And 1130 01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:38,080 Speaker 1: they like to run behind that shield. But when you 1131 01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:41,640 Speaker 1: are actually trying to convince the world that the most deviant, 1132 01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:44,480 Speaker 1: horrible person on the planet happens to be a Mormon, 1133 01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:47,840 Speaker 1: like you, really they've looked. The Democrats have been saying this, 1134 01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:50,120 Speaker 1: look what they've been. The way they've treated Rand Paul 1135 01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:52,920 Speaker 1: after he's been attacked. They don't they don't even make 1136 01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:57,120 Speaker 1: any you know, even Republicans that are completely good, decent, 1137 01:04:57,160 --> 01:05:01,080 Speaker 1: inoffensive guys by any standard imaginable. They they treat them 1138 01:05:01,080 --> 01:05:03,520 Speaker 1: all like you know, everybody is at till of the hunt. 1139 01:05:03,560 --> 01:05:04,880 Speaker 1: But Jimmy, we got to go on about a minute. 1140 01:05:04,920 --> 01:05:07,560 Speaker 1: I just want to ask Thanksgiving? What what? What? What 1141 01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:10,320 Speaker 1: is it like in the in the failer household?

It's the mac and cheese, which 1151 01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:38,960 Speaker 1: a lot of people aren't pro mac and cheese at Thanksgiving, 1152 01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:40,720 Speaker 1: but I think it gives it kind of a Southern 1153 01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:43,920 Speaker 1: barbecue Q. And we eat a mac and cheese tomorrow 1154 01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:47,080 Speaker 1: with three pounds of cheese in it, green air, white cheddar, 1155 01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:50,760 Speaker 1: and parmer gan.

Senator Rampaul 1174 01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:41,440 Speaker 1: got viciously attacked recently, and it is it is not 1175 01:06:41,560 --> 01:06:44,600 Speaker 1: something that's really gotten enough attention to the media. UM. 1176 01:06:45,160 --> 01:06:48,520 Speaker 1: I should know that Rampaul was also at the baseball 1177 01:06:48,600 --> 01:06:52,120 Speaker 1: field and Alexandria some months ago when a would be 1178 01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:56,160 Speaker 1: mass assassin trying to trying to shoot a whole bunch 1179 01:06:56,160 --> 01:06:59,760 Speaker 1: of members of Congress Conservatives right a a left wing 1180 01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:05,680 Speaker 1: would be assassined, shot Steve Scalise and fortunately was taken 1181 01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:10,880 Speaker 1: out by two members of Capitol Hill Police. Two heroes 1182 01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:16,480 Speaker 1: to law enforcement warriors. UM. But the Rand Paul's story 1183 01:07:17,160 --> 01:07:22,240 Speaker 1: hasn't gotten nearly enough attention in my opinion. Here's the 1184 01:07:22,320 --> 01:07:25,640 Speaker 1: latest from Fox News. Kentucky. Senator Rand Paul's wife is 1185 01:07:25,640 --> 01:07:28,120 Speaker 1: accusing the media of making things worse for her husband 1186 01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:31,000 Speaker 1: as he recovers from an attack by a neighbor that 1187 01:07:31,080 --> 01:07:34,600 Speaker 1: left him badly injured earlier this month. Quote. It is 1188 01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:37,400 Speaker 1: incredibly hurtful that some news outlets have victimized Rand a 1189 01:07:37,520 --> 01:07:42,280 Speaker 1: second time as he struggles to recover. Kelly Paul accused 1190 01:07:42,280 --> 01:07:45,320 Speaker 1: some outlets of delighting and hateful headlines like not a 1191 01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:50,200 Speaker 1: perfect neighbor and concocting theories about an ongoing dispute based 1192 01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:54,240 Speaker 1: on nothing more than uh, nothing more than speculation from 1193 01:07:54,240 --> 01:07:57,240 Speaker 1: an attention seeking person with no knowledge of anything to 1194 01:07:57,280 --> 01:08:01,200 Speaker 1: do with us. After the in that the Louisville Courier 1195 01:08:01,360 --> 01:08:03,480 Speaker 1: Journal ran a story titled Rand Paul is not a 1196 01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:08,160 Speaker 1: perfect neighbor, says community developer h Kelly Paul said such 1197 01:08:08,280 --> 01:08:12,240 Speaker 1: characterizations are wrong and had nothing to do with a 1198 01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:17,920 Speaker 1: landscaping dispute and uh and that she says this was 1199 01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:21,040 Speaker 1: quote not a scuffle, a fighter at altercation out altercation. 1200 01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:25,599 Speaker 1: It was a deliberate blindside attack. The impact left Rand 1201 01:08:25,680 --> 01:08:30,640 Speaker 1: with six broken ribs, three displaced plural effusion, and now pneumonia. 1202 01:08:30,880 --> 01:08:34,200 Speaker 1: This has been a terrible experience, made worse by the 1203 01:08:34,280 --> 01:08:38,080 Speaker 1: media's gleeful attempts to blame Ran for it, ridiculing him 1204 01:08:38,080 --> 01:08:42,679 Speaker 1: for everything from mowing his own lawn to composting. So, 1205 01:08:42,960 --> 01:08:44,679 Speaker 1: you know, okay, end quote that's off from the Fox 1206 01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:48,040 Speaker 1: piece here. I know that Kelly Paul Mrs Paul wrote 1207 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:52,080 Speaker 1: on CNN dot com. Uh, you know, I would like 1208 01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:57,160 Speaker 1: to remind, especially the liberal media of moments like this 1209 01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:01,720 Speaker 1: when they become all in dignity and and get all 1210 01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:07,760 Speaker 1: upset and hissy about how Republicans seem to view politics 1211 01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:12,679 Speaker 1: is as increasingly zero some these days, they should remember 1212 01:09:12,800 --> 01:09:18,240 Speaker 1: that on the most a political of issues, right, which 1213 01:09:18,280 --> 01:09:20,479 Speaker 1: in this case a vicious assault that I mean, Rand 1214 01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:24,840 Speaker 1: Paul could have been killed. Anybody who knows anything about fighting, 1215 01:09:24,880 --> 01:09:28,520 Speaker 1: which I will tell you by the way of journalists 1216 01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:33,600 Speaker 1: know nothing about fighting, have no training to defend themselves 1217 01:09:33,680 --> 01:09:38,760 Speaker 1: or others, and are journalists are overwhelmingly a look. I mean, 1218 01:09:38,840 --> 01:09:42,280 Speaker 1: there's obviously former marine recon guys were journalists too, right, 1219 01:09:42,320 --> 01:09:47,160 Speaker 1: But overwhelmingly journalists are a U and media types right 1220 01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:51,360 Speaker 1: are are a wimpy profession and don't know, for example, 1221 01:09:51,400 --> 01:09:54,839 Speaker 1: that in a fight you get hit the wrong way 1222 01:09:55,200 --> 01:09:58,000 Speaker 1: and can go blind, you can fall down, hit your 1223 01:09:58,040 --> 01:10:01,080 Speaker 1: head on the sidewalk and die. Uh. You know, there's 1224 01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:03,880 Speaker 1: any number of ways that a fight is not what 1225 01:10:04,040 --> 01:10:05,760 Speaker 1: you know. All they know about fighting is what they've 1226 01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:08,439 Speaker 1: seen on TV, and having been in a few scuffles myself, 1227 01:10:08,479 --> 01:10:12,360 Speaker 1: fights are no fun. Uh, no matter what the situation is, 1228 01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:17,160 Speaker 1: win or lose fights are really, you know, stuff you 1229 01:10:17,160 --> 01:10:20,160 Speaker 1: want to avoid at all costs. And getting ambushed by somebody, 1230 01:10:20,600 --> 01:10:25,000 Speaker 1: getting blindsided, getting sucker punched is for those of you 1231 01:10:25,080 --> 01:10:28,880 Speaker 1: who have ever experienced it, you know, even even more dangerous, right. 1232 01:10:28,920 --> 01:10:30,519 Speaker 1: I mean, at least in a fight you're squaring off 1233 01:10:30,560 --> 01:10:33,080 Speaker 1: against somebody, you have a chance to defend yourself, but 1234 01:10:33,120 --> 01:10:36,520 Speaker 1: your body also, your endorphins will go there's a preparation. 1235 01:10:37,120 --> 01:10:39,479 Speaker 1: Whereas and you can see this from different videos, if 1236 01:10:39,520 --> 01:10:44,400 Speaker 1: someone just gets blindsided and uh and gets hit, you know, 1237 01:10:44,479 --> 01:10:46,720 Speaker 1: especially hitting the face or in the head, they go 1238 01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:49,840 Speaker 1: down like like a sack of potatoes because their body 1239 01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:54,120 Speaker 1: has no preparation whatsoever for it. And that's really really dangerous. 1240 01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:56,400 Speaker 1: And that sounds like what happened to Rand Paul here. 1241 01:10:57,080 --> 01:10:59,479 Speaker 1: But when the media tries to lecture us all about 1242 01:10:59,520 --> 01:11:02,960 Speaker 1: how we need to be more bipartisan and oh, they 1243 01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:06,360 Speaker 1: want to talk about how Republicans have tossed the side morality, 1244 01:11:06,400 --> 01:11:10,759 Speaker 1: that the that that Democrats don't see that Ran Paul 1245 01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:16,519 Speaker 1: is a really thoughtful and reasonable guy who poses no 1246 01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:20,120 Speaker 1: threat to anybody. The Democrats can't see that Ran you know, 1247 01:11:20,280 --> 01:11:23,679 Speaker 1: if any if any Republican is one that they should say, 1248 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:26,559 Speaker 1: you know, hold on a second, all right, this isn't 1249 01:11:26,600 --> 01:11:29,439 Speaker 1: some terrible human being. This is somebody who is a 1250 01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:32,200 Speaker 1: human being and deserved sympathy. You think Ran Paul or 1251 01:11:32,200 --> 01:11:34,680 Speaker 1: at least be kind of high on their list, But 1252 01:11:35,320 --> 01:11:39,320 Speaker 1: they won't make exceptions for any Republicans. They just have 1253 01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:45,000 Speaker 1: a a hatred for anybody with and are next to 1254 01:11:45,040 --> 01:11:48,479 Speaker 1: their name on TV. And that there's been so much 1255 01:11:48,560 --> 01:11:52,320 Speaker 1: nastiness in the media over Rand Paul. I'm like, you know, 1256 01:11:52,520 --> 01:11:54,000 Speaker 1: I'll look, I'll just say it, you know, I think 1257 01:11:54,080 --> 01:11:56,439 Speaker 1: Ran Paul will be actually a very very good president. 1258 01:11:56,800 --> 01:12:00,320 Speaker 1: I think Rand Paul wants to Uh. I don't think 1259 01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:01,920 Speaker 1: it's all about ego for him. I don't think he's 1260 01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:05,320 Speaker 1: trying to rub people's noses and being wrong or you know, 1261 01:12:05,400 --> 01:12:09,040 Speaker 1: I don't think he's some kind of megalomaniac, which they 1262 01:12:09,200 --> 01:12:12,439 Speaker 1: seem to dominate American politics in the last you know, 1263 01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:14,680 Speaker 1: go back how many decades. Right, there's a lot of 1264 01:12:14,680 --> 01:12:20,799 Speaker 1: egomaniacs in politics, and that they are just as nasty, 1265 01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:23,479 Speaker 1: just as nasty to Rand Paul as they would be 1266 01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:26,080 Speaker 1: to any other Republican or anyone else who disagrees with 1267 01:12:26,080 --> 01:12:28,719 Speaker 1: them politically. It just goes to show you that they've 1268 01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:36,000 Speaker 1: abandoned a certain common decency because they're The emotional aspect 1269 01:12:36,040 --> 01:12:41,080 Speaker 1: of their political beliefs has corrupted many other parts of 1270 01:12:41,080 --> 01:12:43,760 Speaker 1: their lives, right, because they're so emotional about politics, and 1271 01:12:43,760 --> 01:12:46,360 Speaker 1: they're screaming at the sky and there's snow flakes, and 1272 01:12:46,439 --> 01:12:49,280 Speaker 1: you know, oh gosh, you know, Trump's fascism is here. 1273 01:12:50,439 --> 01:12:55,120 Speaker 1: They are willing to be really horrible when it comes 1274 01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:59,320 Speaker 1: to what's just human suffering. I mean, Ram Paul got 1275 01:12:59,360 --> 01:13:04,599 Speaker 1: attacked by a maniac for no reason, and he's been 1276 01:13:04,600 --> 01:13:06,559 Speaker 1: in a tremendous amount of pain, and he's look, he's 1277 01:13:06,560 --> 01:13:09,400 Speaker 1: got a wife, he's got kids. How about how about 1278 01:13:09,400 --> 01:13:12,519 Speaker 1: a little sympathy, have a little common decency. You know, 1279 01:13:12,680 --> 01:13:17,960 Speaker 1: I can tell you this. I would never celebrate mock 1280 01:13:18,280 --> 01:13:22,760 Speaker 1: ridicule in any way. Uh, you know, act like it 1281 01:13:22,840 --> 01:13:26,960 Speaker 1: was some good thing. If even the Democrats in the media, 1282 01:13:27,400 --> 01:13:29,320 Speaker 1: some of whom have come after me personally in the 1283 01:13:29,320 --> 01:13:32,200 Speaker 1: past publicly, you know, if they got attacked and really 1284 01:13:32,240 --> 01:13:34,439 Speaker 1: badly hurt, if they're in a really bad car accident, 1285 01:13:35,080 --> 01:13:38,320 Speaker 1: you know, I'm not some scum. I'm not a jerk. 1286 01:13:38,520 --> 01:13:40,599 Speaker 1: I don't want people to get hurt because I disagree 1287 01:13:40,680 --> 01:13:43,360 Speaker 1: with them. And and if I ever did that, if 1288 01:13:43,400 --> 01:13:45,800 Speaker 1: I was ever celebrating, somebody said, you know, I would 1289 01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:48,960 Speaker 1: be ashamed of myself. Right, It's just this is really 1290 01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:52,479 Speaker 1: basic stuff. But the fact that Senator Paul's wife felt 1291 01:13:52,479 --> 01:13:54,320 Speaker 1: the need to write this, and I think she's right. 1292 01:13:54,400 --> 01:13:56,719 Speaker 1: I've seen people that have, you know, on social media, 1293 01:13:56,760 --> 01:13:58,800 Speaker 1: on Twitter, said really nasty stuff like ram Paul, and 1294 01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:01,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, really, and Paul, I mean, not that it's 1295 01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:04,599 Speaker 1: ever okay, but this is the guy that you're gonna 1296 01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:07,920 Speaker 1: you're gonna be, you know, dancing in his hospital room 1297 01:14:07,920 --> 01:14:09,599 Speaker 1: in front of him because you know, you know, Nan 1298 01:14:09,720 --> 01:14:12,240 Speaker 1: and and you're a Republican and you're in tremendous pain 1299 01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:15,320 Speaker 1: and now have pneumonia. What the heck is wrong with people? 1300 01:14:16,240 --> 01:14:22,000 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you know, increasingly liberalism in this country. Political liberalism, 1301 01:14:22,040 --> 01:14:24,800 Speaker 1: it's like a it's like a mental disease, it really is. 1302 01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:29,840 Speaker 1: It just it corrodes otherwise sound and reasonable people and 1303 01:14:29,920 --> 01:14:35,240 Speaker 1: turns them into moral defectives. It just does. So I know, 1304 01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:38,000 Speaker 1: it's Thanksgiving coming up, and I want to be you know, 1305 01:14:38,360 --> 01:14:41,120 Speaker 1: as cheery as I can today on the show, but 1306 01:14:41,240 --> 01:14:44,040 Speaker 1: that's it just really bothered me, really bothers me this 1307 01:14:44,080 --> 01:14:46,760 Speaker 1: whole way. And these are people in the media and 1308 01:14:46,880 --> 01:14:50,679 Speaker 1: people that you never even been in a in a 1309 01:14:50,720 --> 01:14:54,799 Speaker 1: schoolyard scuffle, you know, and they're just laughing at Rampaul 1310 01:14:54,960 --> 01:14:58,880 Speaker 1: got his ribs kicked in literally. Anyway, I hope for 1311 01:14:58,920 --> 01:15:02,759 Speaker 1: a speedy recovery or as speedy as possible for Senator Paul. 1312 01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:06,200 Speaker 1: And I think he's a really good and decent public servant. 1313 01:15:06,240 --> 01:15:08,920 Speaker 1: I've interviewed him before many times. I think he's a 1314 01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:12,200 Speaker 1: solid dude. I think he's good for this country. And 1315 01:15:12,240 --> 01:15:14,160 Speaker 1: even if he were the worst politician in the country, 1316 01:15:14,160 --> 01:15:16,000 Speaker 1: I would still be praying for a speedy recovery for 1317 01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:19,200 Speaker 1: the guy. He's got a wife and kids. You know, 1318 01:15:19,360 --> 01:15:22,000 Speaker 1: Liberal media, stop being such a bunch of savages. Really, 1319 01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:25,599 Speaker 1: you know, you know it's time to lock it up, 1320 01:15:25,800 --> 01:15:28,519 Speaker 1: you know, get it together. All Right, we're gonna talk 1321 01:15:28,520 --> 01:15:31,000 Speaker 1: about hunting here in a few minutes. We'll discuss the 1322 01:15:31,800 --> 01:15:36,000 Speaker 1: big game hunting issue. So should people be able to 1323 01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:38,680 Speaker 1: hunt elephants and why would they? We'll address that right 1324 01:15:38,720 --> 01:15:43,519 Speaker 1: after the break. All right, team, welcome back. I told 1325 01:15:43,560 --> 01:15:47,280 Speaker 1: you that we would revisit the issue of big game 1326 01:15:47,360 --> 01:15:50,760 Speaker 1: hunting with somebody who is both an expert in the 1327 01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:54,840 Speaker 1: subject matter and also takes the position that big game 1328 01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:58,880 Speaker 1: hunting is a good thing, and I want to hear 1329 01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:01,839 Speaker 1: his side of it. Um. I'm open minded on this subject, 1330 01:16:01,840 --> 01:16:04,479 Speaker 1: although I've told you that I come at this from 1331 01:16:04,520 --> 01:16:07,920 Speaker 1: a certain perspective. We have Paul Baba's on the line 1332 01:16:08,160 --> 01:16:12,320 Speaker 1: right now. He is the president of Safari Club International, 1333 01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:15,320 Speaker 1: which defends hunters rights. Paul, thank you so much for 1334 01:16:15,360 --> 01:16:17,599 Speaker 1: make the time. I know you're probably heading off Thanksgiving soon. 1335 01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:21,559 Speaker 1: Thank you, Buck. I appreciate you having me so. The 1336 01:16:21,600 --> 01:16:25,679 Speaker 1: President has not finally or the administration has not made 1337 01:16:25,680 --> 01:16:29,600 Speaker 1: a final decision yet on elephant trophies from Zimbabwe and 1338 01:16:29,680 --> 01:16:33,760 Speaker 1: Zambia specifically, But this kicked up a whole discussion where 1339 01:16:33,760 --> 01:16:36,240 Speaker 1: you had people who were saying, Okay, hold on a second, 1340 01:16:36,560 --> 01:16:39,720 Speaker 1: why would we why would we want to allow or 1341 01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:42,880 Speaker 1: encourage why would you want to encourage hunting of animals 1342 01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:45,320 Speaker 1: like elephants for a lot of us and Paul, I'm 1343 01:16:45,400 --> 01:16:48,160 Speaker 1: very fun about this. I'm fine with hunting. I've been hunting. 1344 01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:51,120 Speaker 1: I was hunting a month ago. But there's something about 1345 01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:56,120 Speaker 1: animals that are endangered or threatened, and also animals that 1346 01:16:56,520 --> 01:16:59,960 Speaker 1: well have a certain place and we have a certain 1347 01:17:00,160 --> 01:17:03,080 Speaker 1: emotional or psychological connection to them because of movies and 1348 01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:06,320 Speaker 1: TV that it just seems strange. So so why should 1349 01:17:06,400 --> 01:17:10,120 Speaker 1: be game hunting of elephants lines these other creatures in 1350 01:17:10,240 --> 01:17:13,200 Speaker 1: Africa specifically? Why is it a good thing? And why 1351 01:17:13,200 --> 01:17:16,800 Speaker 1: should we support this? Well, Buck and I get it. 1352 01:17:16,840 --> 01:17:19,320 Speaker 1: I understand where you're coming from. For someone you know 1353 01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:21,519 Speaker 1: that that actually is a hunter, maybe in North America 1354 01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:25,320 Speaker 1: um hunting elephants, and it is an iconic species and 1355 01:17:25,560 --> 01:17:28,960 Speaker 1: it does draw a lot of emotion. What we're referring 1356 01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:31,800 Speaker 1: to here is what we call sustainable use conservation, which 1357 01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:34,479 Speaker 1: has been in place over a hundred years in North America. 1358 01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:36,559 Speaker 1: You may have heard of the North American conservation model 1359 01:17:36,560 --> 01:17:40,360 Speaker 1: founded by Teddy Roosevelt, where if it pays its stays, 1360 01:17:40,400 --> 01:17:44,439 Speaker 1: that's the term people use. The revenue derived from hunting, 1361 01:17:44,680 --> 01:17:47,080 Speaker 1: whether it's North America or any of the country. In 1362 01:17:47,080 --> 01:17:49,920 Speaker 1: this case we're talking Africa, there's a tremendous amount of revenue. 1363 01:17:49,960 --> 01:17:52,560 Speaker 1: That's where the money comes from. The funded conservation programs. 1364 01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:57,439 Speaker 1: Um You know, poaching is obviously a serious problem when 1365 01:17:57,479 --> 01:17:59,519 Speaker 1: we're talking about some of the iconic species in African 1366 01:17:59,560 --> 01:18:01,840 Speaker 1: I want to be up front and tell everyone, UH, 1367 01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:05,000 Speaker 1: that's listening. Boaching and hunting or not anonymous, they're not 1368 01:18:05,040 --> 01:18:08,519 Speaker 1: the same thing. Boaching and the illegal activity. Hunting is 1369 01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:13,200 Speaker 1: a legal, regulated activity based on scientific data. UM. So 1370 01:18:13,240 --> 01:18:17,960 Speaker 1: when it comes to to to elephants, for example, right now, 1371 01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:20,360 Speaker 1: the ball shure you know, to do the census counts. 1372 01:18:20,360 --> 01:18:25,160 Speaker 1: There's aproxially eighty thousand elephants in Zimbabwe. So what happens 1373 01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:27,439 Speaker 1: is in a situation like this, we have a herd 1374 01:18:27,479 --> 01:18:30,479 Speaker 1: of eighty thousand animals, there's only so many permits they're 1375 01:18:30,520 --> 01:18:34,519 Speaker 1: gonna be allocated to hunt elephants in Zimbabwe. The revenue 1376 01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:39,320 Speaker 1: derived from from the elephant hunts, that's what's paying for 1377 01:18:39,360 --> 01:18:42,240 Speaker 1: the conservation. That money is going right into the programs 1378 01:18:42,240 --> 01:18:45,800 Speaker 1: there to fund conservation. UM. And that's why you know, 1379 01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:49,759 Speaker 1: that's what we always that's always the argument forwards use conservation. 1380 01:18:49,840 --> 01:18:52,680 Speaker 1: That's where the money is coming from. UH. Basically, by 1381 01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:54,880 Speaker 1: allowing regulated what you're what you're telling me is by 1382 01:18:54,920 --> 01:18:57,320 Speaker 1: allowing and I've read about it and heard this argu before. 1383 01:18:57,320 --> 01:18:58,680 Speaker 1: I just want to make sure I'm clear on it 1384 01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:01,439 Speaker 1: that by allowing reg related hunting, even if a species 1385 01:19:01,520 --> 01:19:05,160 Speaker 1: like the elephant um in Africa and Zambia, Zimbabwe in 1386 01:19:05,200 --> 01:19:08,599 Speaker 1: other places, it essentially pays for the programs that as 1387 01:19:08,600 --> 01:19:10,760 Speaker 1: you said, if you have a herd of thousands of animals, 1388 01:19:11,520 --> 01:19:13,800 Speaker 1: if you have ten or a hundred hunting permits, I 1389 01:19:13,840 --> 01:19:15,120 Speaker 1: don't know what. By the way, can you give me 1390 01:19:15,160 --> 01:19:17,120 Speaker 1: some sense of scale? I mean, how many hunting permits 1391 01:19:17,160 --> 01:19:21,559 Speaker 1: are there a year given out in a country like Zambia. Honestly, 1392 01:19:21,640 --> 01:19:23,240 Speaker 1: off the top of my head, I don't have the 1393 01:19:23,320 --> 01:19:26,360 Speaker 1: information down and you know kind of the details in 1394 01:19:26,400 --> 01:19:28,200 Speaker 1: this we have abolishes on staff. I could get you 1395 01:19:28,240 --> 01:19:30,200 Speaker 1: that data. That's okay. I didn't mean to put you 1396 01:19:30,240 --> 01:19:32,000 Speaker 1: on the spot. I'm just trying to get get some sense. 1397 01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:34,680 Speaker 1: I mean, how expensive of the permits. Also, my understanding 1398 01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:36,760 Speaker 1: is for something like an elephant, you're you're paying a 1399 01:19:36,800 --> 01:19:41,200 Speaker 1: lot of money for that. Yeah, honestly, and I can 1400 01:19:41,240 --> 01:19:43,120 Speaker 1: I tell you you can get pretty pricey. You know, 1401 01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:46,720 Speaker 1: you're talking twenty plus UM, probably close to thirty for 1402 01:19:46,760 --> 01:19:48,880 Speaker 1: an elephant hunt all in UM. It could be even 1403 01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:51,439 Speaker 1: a little higher depending on what area you're hunting. UM. 1404 01:19:51,479 --> 01:19:53,519 Speaker 1: As far as I can give you a little bit 1405 01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:55,880 Speaker 1: of statistics if you're interested in you with the numbers. 1406 01:19:56,400 --> 01:19:59,679 Speaker 1: But there's a program in in uh in Zimbabwe called 1407 01:19:59,720 --> 01:20:02,479 Speaker 1: camp Fire. It's an acronym. It stands for Community Areas 1408 01:20:02,560 --> 01:20:06,839 Speaker 1: Management Program for Indigenous Resources. It's a long acronym. Started 1409 01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:10,840 Speaker 1: in eighty nine with support from US eight from camp 1410 01:20:10,840 --> 01:20:15,040 Speaker 1: fire UM. It supports seven and seventy seven thousand households. 1411 01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:18,760 Speaker 1: That's about of all the householder of Zimbabwe and it 1412 01:20:18,920 --> 01:20:23,479 Speaker 1: entails about twelve point four million acres okay. Out of that, 1413 01:20:24,439 --> 01:20:28,600 Speaker 1: the funding from camp Fire comes from hunting, that is 1414 01:20:28,640 --> 01:20:31,120 Speaker 1: some elephant hunting. And just to give an idea, in 1415 01:20:31,120 --> 01:20:34,320 Speaker 1: two thousand thirteen, the income from the Campfire program two 1416 01:20:34,320 --> 01:20:38,439 Speaker 1: point two million. So between ninety four and two thousand twelve, 1417 01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:41,720 Speaker 1: the communities in the Campfire program received twenty one and 1418 01:20:41,760 --> 01:20:44,439 Speaker 1: a half million dollars, which is about one point two 1419 01:20:44,479 --> 01:20:46,880 Speaker 1: million annually if you average it out. Now we're speaking 1420 01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:50,080 Speaker 1: of Paul Babas, who is the president of Safari Club 1421 01:20:50,120 --> 01:20:53,360 Speaker 1: International about big game hunting, and this is because of 1422 01:20:53,400 --> 01:20:57,759 Speaker 1: the recent controversy and debate that erupted after it seemed 1423 01:20:57,800 --> 01:21:00,479 Speaker 1: like the administration was going to allow the import rotation 1424 01:21:01,120 --> 01:21:05,320 Speaker 1: of elephant trophy, specifically from Zimbabwe, now that Mugabe, the 1425 01:21:05,360 --> 01:21:08,880 Speaker 1: dictator of Zimbabwe, has fallen into the US and and Paul, 1426 01:21:09,560 --> 01:21:11,479 Speaker 1: do we have any assurance, I mean, do we have 1427 01:21:11,520 --> 01:21:14,960 Speaker 1: any clarity that the money that is raising these programs 1428 01:21:15,040 --> 01:21:17,920 Speaker 1: is actually going to conservation and not you know, corrupt 1429 01:21:17,920 --> 01:21:20,600 Speaker 1: bureaucrats or any number of other things. Are we have 1430 01:21:20,600 --> 01:21:22,960 Speaker 1: pretty high levels of confidence when we're talking about some 1431 01:21:23,000 --> 01:21:25,719 Speaker 1: of these countries in Sub Saharan Africa that the money 1432 01:21:25,880 --> 01:21:29,800 Speaker 1: is in fact going to help other animals. It is, 1433 01:21:29,880 --> 01:21:32,040 Speaker 1: it is. We do have a high level of conference confidence, 1434 01:21:32,040 --> 01:21:34,800 Speaker 1: particularly in the Campfire program. UH. The director of the 1435 01:21:34,800 --> 01:21:38,240 Speaker 1: Campfire Program is a man in Zimbabwe name Charles John 1436 01:21:38,479 --> 01:21:41,479 Speaker 1: Now personally and the chairman of the trend of the 1437 01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:43,160 Speaker 1: Campfire Trust is a is a U s he to 1438 01:21:43,200 --> 01:21:46,360 Speaker 1: somebodnamed Joe hosmer Um. So we have a high level 1439 01:21:46,360 --> 01:21:48,040 Speaker 1: of comments of money is going right there in those 1440 01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:51,320 Speaker 1: communities because it's the village elders that that's the guys 1441 01:21:51,360 --> 01:21:53,040 Speaker 1: that you know that are working in the camps doing 1442 01:21:53,040 --> 01:21:55,679 Speaker 1: the hunting, UH, doing the guiding with the professional hunters. 1443 01:21:55,760 --> 01:21:58,320 Speaker 1: So we have absolutely high level of confidence money is 1444 01:21:58,360 --> 01:22:02,599 Speaker 1: being spent there um. But when you don't have hunting 1445 01:22:02,640 --> 01:22:04,479 Speaker 1: allowed in a country, or in this case, you can 1446 01:22:04,520 --> 01:22:06,759 Speaker 1: still hunt. Keep in mind, you can still hunt elephants 1447 01:22:06,840 --> 01:22:09,519 Speaker 1: legally in Zimbible, you just can't bring anything back. So 1448 01:22:09,560 --> 01:22:11,840 Speaker 1: if our US hunter to go over there, he wants 1449 01:22:11,840 --> 01:22:14,479 Speaker 1: about to bring back something from the hunt. So if 1450 01:22:14,479 --> 01:22:17,280 Speaker 1: the we're not allowed to bring them back, you could 1451 01:22:17,280 --> 01:22:19,479 Speaker 1: see you all have a drop off in hunting. And 1452 01:22:19,520 --> 01:22:21,720 Speaker 1: that's where the problem lies, right, I mean clearly that 1453 01:22:21,840 --> 01:22:25,000 Speaker 1: the trophy issue is as a question of whether we're 1454 01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:28,320 Speaker 1: encouraging or discouraging that kind of hunting as a matter 1455 01:22:28,360 --> 01:22:31,080 Speaker 1: of policy, right, because it's more it's more enticing to 1456 01:22:31,120 --> 01:22:33,200 Speaker 1: some people if they can, if they're paying this, as 1457 01:22:33,200 --> 01:22:35,960 Speaker 1: you said, tens of thousands of dollars for the permit 1458 01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:38,160 Speaker 1: to hunt an elephant, then they want to be able 1459 01:22:38,200 --> 01:22:40,439 Speaker 1: to bring something back as as a memento of that 1460 01:22:40,520 --> 01:22:43,559 Speaker 1: hunt as a trophy. But I can I also ask you, Paul, 1461 01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:46,320 Speaker 1: and and you are free to defer on this one. 1462 01:22:46,360 --> 01:22:49,000 Speaker 1: But I just I've been bird hunting. I've been out 1463 01:22:49,040 --> 01:22:50,800 Speaker 1: on deer hunts. I've been You've done a lot of 1464 01:22:50,920 --> 01:22:53,960 Speaker 1: fishing obviously, which is different. But bird hunting. You know, 1465 01:22:54,840 --> 01:22:57,880 Speaker 1: the birds get away. You know, there's there's a sport 1466 01:22:57,920 --> 01:22:59,680 Speaker 1: to it, there's a skill to it, right, I mean, 1467 01:22:59,800 --> 01:23:02,320 Speaker 1: and to do this in a in a as a 1468 01:23:02,400 --> 01:23:04,920 Speaker 1: responsible hunter in season and a respectful way. You know, 1469 01:23:05,000 --> 01:23:07,360 Speaker 1: you hunt your limit, and but there's a chance that 1470 01:23:07,400 --> 01:23:09,760 Speaker 1: you're actually gonna go out and not get anything right, 1471 01:23:09,800 --> 01:23:11,800 Speaker 1: there's a chance that you might miss, you know, the bird, 1472 01:23:12,080 --> 01:23:15,439 Speaker 1: whether you're doing a trap shoot or you're just going 1473 01:23:15,439 --> 01:23:18,400 Speaker 1: out into a field somewhere on private on private land 1474 01:23:18,479 --> 01:23:20,880 Speaker 1: or land that you're allowed to be hunting on. To me, 1475 01:23:20,920 --> 01:23:23,679 Speaker 1: I just wonder where an elephant they know where they are. 1476 01:23:24,200 --> 01:23:27,120 Speaker 1: I don't understand how. I don't understand the sport and 1477 01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:29,640 Speaker 1: I've never done it, so I plead ignorance on on 1478 01:23:29,680 --> 01:23:32,599 Speaker 1: the whole process. But it sounds to me like there's 1479 01:23:32,640 --> 01:23:35,240 Speaker 1: the elephant, you kind of get a large bore rifle 1480 01:23:35,800 --> 01:23:37,680 Speaker 1: and you sit there and you pick it off. I 1481 01:23:37,720 --> 01:23:40,679 Speaker 1: don't understand the sport in that. As somebody again who's 1482 01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:43,439 Speaker 1: fine with with sport hunting here in this country, I 1483 01:23:43,479 --> 01:23:45,839 Speaker 1: just don't understand why somebody would want to hunt an elephant. 1484 01:23:46,120 --> 01:23:47,760 Speaker 1: Can you shed some light on that or is that 1485 01:23:47,840 --> 01:23:52,120 Speaker 1: just you know, a personal taste issue. No, well, the 1486 01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:54,200 Speaker 1: reason people hunt is a personally show. I will say 1487 01:23:54,200 --> 01:23:55,760 Speaker 1: that I can't speak for all hunters. We all have 1488 01:23:55,760 --> 01:23:58,400 Speaker 1: a personal reason for hunting. But I will tell you 1489 01:23:58,439 --> 01:24:01,840 Speaker 1: elephant hunting is not that easy. I've seen people post 1490 01:24:01,880 --> 01:24:03,400 Speaker 1: here ladles cell Us a driver around a vehicle. You 1491 01:24:03,439 --> 01:24:05,040 Speaker 1: see when you shoot it. It's just not quite that 1492 01:24:05,120 --> 01:24:07,479 Speaker 1: easy because you gotta keep in mind you're you're gonna 1493 01:24:08,040 --> 01:24:11,519 Speaker 1: we're looking for and any type of hunt, you want 1494 01:24:11,520 --> 01:24:15,160 Speaker 1: to take a mature animal that's out of the breeding cycle, 1495 01:24:15,160 --> 01:24:18,880 Speaker 1: for example, an old male that's not breeding anymore, he's 1496 01:24:18,920 --> 01:24:21,879 Speaker 1: not contruting to the to the population anymore. That's ideally 1497 01:24:22,120 --> 01:24:25,080 Speaker 1: as an ethical hunter, which you're looking for, and to 1498 01:24:25,080 --> 01:24:26,680 Speaker 1: to go out in the bush. You don't just walk 1499 01:24:26,680 --> 01:24:29,240 Speaker 1: around and just come across an elephant. And you can 1500 01:24:29,280 --> 01:24:32,639 Speaker 1: trust me, you can walk for days literally or on foot, 1501 01:24:33,520 --> 01:24:36,519 Speaker 1: and you're walking a lot, and it's just not that simple. 1502 01:24:36,560 --> 01:24:38,040 Speaker 1: He's not gonna come across elephant and shoot it. But 1503 01:24:38,080 --> 01:24:40,920 Speaker 1: the whole idea is to try to find an older 1504 01:24:41,320 --> 01:24:44,000 Speaker 1: male that's out of his breeding prime, if you will, 1505 01:24:44,280 --> 01:24:46,360 Speaker 1: that's not contributed to hert that's ideally, but it's it's 1506 01:24:46,400 --> 01:24:48,559 Speaker 1: not that easy. I'm just simply put, it's not that 1507 01:24:48,640 --> 01:24:51,000 Speaker 1: simple to God and just shoot an elephant. Um and 1508 01:24:51,040 --> 01:24:53,600 Speaker 1: if you it's as hard to imagine as big as 1509 01:24:53,640 --> 01:24:56,360 Speaker 1: an elephant is standing thirty forty yards away from you'll 1510 01:24:56,360 --> 01:24:58,639 Speaker 1: never see it until he wants to be seen. It's 1511 01:24:58,640 --> 01:25:01,040 Speaker 1: it's unbelievable how well these has blend in. I know 1512 01:25:01,160 --> 01:25:06,360 Speaker 1: that sounds silly, but honestly, firsthand, it's just not that easy. 1513 01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:08,720 Speaker 1: All right, Well, look, Paul, I appreciate you coming on 1514 01:25:08,840 --> 01:25:11,600 Speaker 1: talking to me about it and appreciate you sharing your expertise. 1515 01:25:12,200 --> 01:25:16,040 Speaker 1: Paul Babas is the president of Safari Club International. UH. 1516 01:25:16,120 --> 01:25:19,000 Speaker 1: People can go and check out what they're up to online. Paul, 1517 01:25:19,040 --> 01:25:21,320 Speaker 1: thank you for your time. How a happy Thanksgiving. Thank 1518 01:25:21,360 --> 01:25:23,519 Speaker 1: you same to you team. We're gonna roll into a 1519 01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:27,680 Speaker 1: break here. We will be right back with more Thanksgiving discussion, 1520 01:25:28,120 --> 01:25:32,240 Speaker 1: so stay with me. So should you avoid talking about 1521 01:25:32,479 --> 01:25:37,599 Speaker 1: politics at Thanksgiving dinner? I think each year this is 1522 01:25:37,960 --> 01:25:41,040 Speaker 1: what journalists go to this well, time and time again 1523 01:25:41,080 --> 01:25:45,439 Speaker 1: they pull out stats on this, and the latest that 1524 01:25:45,479 --> 01:25:49,120 Speaker 1: I've seen is that one in three people pulled says 1525 01:25:49,120 --> 01:25:51,559 Speaker 1: that they're going to try to avoid a discussion of 1526 01:25:51,640 --> 01:25:55,200 Speaker 1: politics at Thanksgiving dinner. I'm like, you know it all. 1527 01:25:55,240 --> 01:25:57,800 Speaker 1: First of all, all the pens. You gotta read the room, 1528 01:25:57,920 --> 01:26:02,600 Speaker 1: and you've got to be able to understand what your audience, 1529 01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:05,240 Speaker 1: meaning your family or whoever else is at your things 1530 01:26:05,280 --> 01:26:08,439 Speaker 1: Giving dinner is gonna be able to u to handle 1531 01:26:08,479 --> 01:26:11,080 Speaker 1: without things getting a little testy. Because you don't want anybody, 1532 01:26:11,560 --> 01:26:14,160 Speaker 1: you know, flinging a drumstick at you across the table 1533 01:26:14,479 --> 01:26:18,879 Speaker 1: or flicking a spoonful of cranberry sauce in your direction. 1534 01:26:19,280 --> 01:26:22,720 Speaker 1: You gotta keep it civil. I totally understand that. I 1535 01:26:22,760 --> 01:26:25,760 Speaker 1: will say that, you know. It depends also for me 1536 01:26:26,080 --> 01:26:30,640 Speaker 1: on how long this stretches out, because I'm great with 1537 01:26:30,640 --> 01:26:33,240 Speaker 1: the New York City small talk, which means which is 1538 01:26:33,240 --> 01:26:34,920 Speaker 1: my way of saying that when people come up to me, 1539 01:26:35,680 --> 01:26:38,599 Speaker 1: especially if they maybe kind of know somebody who knows me, 1540 01:26:38,680 --> 01:26:40,599 Speaker 1: or they then they know what I do and they 1541 01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:44,840 Speaker 1: want to start talking politics. I'm always completely respectful of 1542 01:26:45,040 --> 01:26:47,000 Speaker 1: anybody who wants to talk to me, as long as 1543 01:26:47,040 --> 01:26:50,000 Speaker 1: they're being respectful about anything. But I don't usually like 1544 01:26:50,040 --> 01:26:55,840 Speaker 1: to engage quasi or total strangers in political debate. So 1545 01:26:55,920 --> 01:27:00,439 Speaker 1: I have a way of going into noncommittal, non political 1546 01:27:00,479 --> 01:27:03,400 Speaker 1: talk in response to direct questions about it. You know, 1547 01:27:03,840 --> 01:27:05,360 Speaker 1: people come up to me, so I'm just trying to 1548 01:27:05,400 --> 01:27:06,719 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to give you some of the tricks 1549 01:27:06,720 --> 01:27:09,520 Speaker 1: of the trade here for your own Thanksgiving dinner purposes, 1550 01:27:09,760 --> 01:27:12,200 Speaker 1: if you have to use it. People will come up 1551 01:27:12,200 --> 01:27:15,640 Speaker 1: to me and they'll say, you know, hey, you know so, uh, 1552 01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:18,519 Speaker 1: you know, I heard from so and so that you know, 1553 01:27:18,600 --> 01:27:22,559 Speaker 1: you work for Glennbeck or something like that. And then 1554 01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:24,720 Speaker 1: then they'll say, you know, so, what do you think 1555 01:27:24,720 --> 01:27:28,000 Speaker 1: of Trump? And you know, I'll just say, well, you know, 1556 01:27:28,120 --> 01:27:31,960 Speaker 1: presidents working working hard, and I'm really hopeful for the 1557 01:27:31,960 --> 01:27:36,080 Speaker 1: administration and I think that if things go well, we 1558 01:27:36,120 --> 01:27:38,800 Speaker 1: could really see some some progress here. And I'm I'm 1559 01:27:38,880 --> 01:27:41,720 Speaker 1: I'm hoping for the best, you know. And if they go, well, 1560 01:27:41,760 --> 01:27:43,880 Speaker 1: you know what about all the other you know, the 1561 01:27:43,960 --> 01:27:45,800 Speaker 1: things that he did. I don't like this about Trump. 1562 01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:47,400 Speaker 1: I like that about Trump. And I say, well, you know, 1563 01:27:47,439 --> 01:27:51,360 Speaker 1: it's look, everyone's uh Everan's obviously very committed right now 1564 01:27:51,400 --> 01:27:54,120 Speaker 1: to their politics, and it feels a little bit polarized, 1565 01:27:54,200 --> 01:27:56,080 Speaker 1: and I would like us all the go now. I'm 1566 01:27:56,120 --> 01:27:57,880 Speaker 1: like doing the most boring I know if if this 1567 01:27:57,920 --> 01:28:00,000 Speaker 1: were my radio show, every everybody would be like, what's 1568 01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:02,160 Speaker 1: going on here? Right? This is the most boring stuff ever. 1569 01:28:02,520 --> 01:28:05,800 Speaker 1: Having no opinions in response to questions about opinions is 1570 01:28:05,840 --> 01:28:09,120 Speaker 1: not going to excite anybody. But that's the point. The 1571 01:28:09,200 --> 01:28:12,680 Speaker 1: way to do it is not to shut down the conversation. 1572 01:28:13,200 --> 01:28:17,040 Speaker 1: It's to slow roll the conversation. So someone so when 1573 01:28:17,040 --> 01:28:20,400 Speaker 1: you're an Ethel, is like, excuse me, but what do 1574 01:28:20,439 --> 01:28:24,080 Speaker 1: you think about what's going on with this guy in 1575 01:28:24,120 --> 01:28:28,120 Speaker 1: this race that's not doing what I like? Uh, you 1576 01:28:28,160 --> 01:28:31,280 Speaker 1: can respond, well, an Ethel. You know, these days, I 1577 01:28:31,360 --> 01:28:33,880 Speaker 1: just I just feel like Americans need to come together, 1578 01:28:33,960 --> 01:28:36,320 Speaker 1: and I really wish we'd focus on the positive. And 1579 01:28:36,640 --> 01:28:39,160 Speaker 1: you know, just just go on that go on that rant. 1580 01:28:39,680 --> 01:28:44,520 Speaker 1: You know, pretend, you know, pretend you're a political analyst 1581 01:28:44,600 --> 01:28:48,240 Speaker 1: that like ABC News or something, we're CBS News, and 1582 01:28:48,280 --> 01:28:50,519 Speaker 1: you're just gonna say nothing, but do it in a 1583 01:28:50,680 --> 01:28:55,479 Speaker 1: very a very authoritative way, right, have no opinions, but 1584 01:28:55,640 --> 01:28:58,559 Speaker 1: say it like you do. And after a few minutes 1585 01:28:58,600 --> 01:29:01,080 Speaker 1: of that, and Ethel will be like, oh my gosh, 1586 01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:06,240 Speaker 1: you're boring past me the gravy. So that's that's one 1587 01:29:06,240 --> 01:29:09,080 Speaker 1: way to go you know, that would be that would 1588 01:29:09,120 --> 01:29:12,160 Speaker 1: be my go to if somebody starts to try to 1589 01:29:12,360 --> 01:29:15,040 Speaker 1: box you in to a situation where you have to 1590 01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:18,160 Speaker 1: talk politics, I will say, in my family it is 1591 01:29:18,200 --> 01:29:22,559 Speaker 1: a safe space for conservatism. I won't say which ones 1592 01:29:22,600 --> 01:29:24,000 Speaker 1: because I don't want to speak for them, but I 1593 01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:27,200 Speaker 1: have one or two family members who may even be 1594 01:29:27,280 --> 01:29:31,960 Speaker 1: more conservative than me, which is saying something I'm not 1595 01:29:32,000 --> 01:29:36,360 Speaker 1: gonna lie. I'm I'm like dahn, that's that's conservative. So 1596 01:29:37,080 --> 01:29:39,400 Speaker 1: we we have no problem talking about politics. The only 1597 01:29:39,439 --> 01:29:41,840 Speaker 1: thing is that we all agree with each other, and 1598 01:29:41,920 --> 01:29:44,080 Speaker 1: so that's always fun. It's great. You know, you get 1599 01:29:44,080 --> 01:29:46,920 Speaker 1: the Sexton family echo chamber of just like I know, right, 1600 01:29:46,960 --> 01:29:49,519 Speaker 1: I mean freedom in America and everyone you know, Mom 1601 01:29:49,520 --> 01:29:51,920 Speaker 1: and Dad are like, yeah, freedom in America. This is 1602 01:29:51,960 --> 01:29:53,880 Speaker 1: what you know, that's what we're all about. You know, 1603 01:29:53,920 --> 01:29:57,000 Speaker 1: this is how this family rules. So we're great with that. 1604 01:29:57,120 --> 01:29:59,040 Speaker 1: We don't have to worry about any of that stuff. 1605 01:29:59,479 --> 01:30:02,920 Speaker 1: Once you get in a more extended family, yeah, we 1606 01:30:03,000 --> 01:30:04,880 Speaker 1: got we got a couple of liberals here. We have 1607 01:30:05,200 --> 01:30:07,559 Speaker 1: some staunch conservatives, but we got a couple of liberals. 1608 01:30:07,640 --> 01:30:09,280 Speaker 1: We got a couple of liberals here and there, and 1609 01:30:09,320 --> 01:30:15,360 Speaker 1: we're accepting of their of their additions to the conversation. 1610 01:30:15,479 --> 01:30:20,280 Speaker 1: You know, they're allowed. They're allowed to have their have 1611 01:30:20,280 --> 01:30:22,719 Speaker 1: have just like their opinion. Man. I mean, they're allowed 1612 01:30:22,760 --> 01:30:25,439 Speaker 1: to do that, and we're all very respectful of each other. 1613 01:30:25,600 --> 01:30:28,519 Speaker 1: But I would note that when if you really need, 1614 01:30:29,520 --> 01:30:32,759 Speaker 1: if you really need to find common ground, just start 1615 01:30:32,800 --> 01:30:35,600 Speaker 1: trashing a movie that everybody knows is really bad that 1616 01:30:35,680 --> 01:30:39,519 Speaker 1: just came out recently. That's a good one. That would be. 1617 01:30:40,760 --> 01:30:43,280 Speaker 1: Keep that card up your sleeve in case you need it. 1618 01:30:43,680 --> 01:30:46,439 Speaker 1: If you reach a point in the conversation where you're like, 1619 01:30:46,439 --> 01:30:49,000 Speaker 1: you know what, it's just too tough to find any 1620 01:30:49,040 --> 01:30:52,240 Speaker 1: middle ground here, then just start to start to discuss 1621 01:30:52,320 --> 01:30:56,439 Speaker 1: how the recent Justice League movie, the Marvel movie. I 1622 01:30:56,520 --> 01:30:59,519 Speaker 1: heard it was terrible. I didn't see it, but people 1623 01:30:59,600 --> 01:31:02,720 Speaker 1: told me that it was absolute garbage. So you could 1624 01:31:02,760 --> 01:31:05,840 Speaker 1: probably go there. And you can always argue about superhero movies. 1625 01:31:05,880 --> 01:31:08,560 Speaker 1: Nobody's too invested in those. By the way, should I 1626 01:31:08,560 --> 01:31:11,240 Speaker 1: watch The Punisher over the Break? Is The Punisher good? 1627 01:31:11,240 --> 01:31:14,360 Speaker 1: The Netflix series? This is an aside? What, Yes, I 1628 01:31:14,439 --> 01:31:16,840 Speaker 1: haven't seen it, okay, so you know, I might check 1629 01:31:16,880 --> 01:31:20,360 Speaker 1: that out. I like The Daredevil. The Daredevil show that 1630 01:31:20,439 --> 01:31:24,120 Speaker 1: was on Netflix, which this is a spinoff of that, 1631 01:31:24,280 --> 01:31:27,880 Speaker 1: and the guy from season one of The Walking Dead, 1632 01:31:27,920 --> 01:31:30,599 Speaker 1: who's like or season one and two, I guess who's 1633 01:31:30,680 --> 01:31:34,720 Speaker 1: the best friend of Rick the lead and then kind 1634 01:31:34,720 --> 01:31:37,559 Speaker 1: of betrays him and all that. Well, spoilers whatever, if 1635 01:31:37,560 --> 01:31:39,439 Speaker 1: you haven't seen a show it's been around for ten years, 1636 01:31:39,439 --> 01:31:42,080 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, there's no such thing as spoilers. Um, but 1637 01:31:42,240 --> 01:31:44,200 Speaker 1: he's the one who plays the punisher, so I'm gonna 1638 01:31:44,200 --> 01:31:47,799 Speaker 1: be probably uh getting into some of that over the weekend. 1639 01:31:47,840 --> 01:31:50,599 Speaker 1: I've also downloaded for those of you who are gonna 1640 01:31:50,600 --> 01:31:53,040 Speaker 1: have to kill some time. I downloaded a show based 1641 01:31:53,040 --> 01:31:56,840 Speaker 1: purely on the reviews, Battle Star Galactica. I have the 1642 01:31:56,880 --> 01:31:59,480 Speaker 1: first season of it. I'm not a sci fi guy, 1643 01:31:59,560 --> 01:32:04,280 Speaker 1: but I note that this show has wildly positive reviews. 1644 01:32:04,400 --> 01:32:07,679 Speaker 1: Like people say, and it's uh Edward James almost and 1645 01:32:07,960 --> 01:32:09,880 Speaker 1: some other folks. I don't know who else is in there, 1646 01:32:09,920 --> 01:32:13,559 Speaker 1: but the reviews are are stellar. And I'm not somebody 1647 01:32:13,600 --> 01:32:15,960 Speaker 1: who gets too excited about Star Trek Star Wars stuff. 1648 01:32:16,160 --> 01:32:17,559 Speaker 1: And I've seen a lot of it, but I'm not 1649 01:32:18,320 --> 01:32:20,720 Speaker 1: I've watched a couple episodes of Battlestar Galactic and I 1650 01:32:20,760 --> 01:32:23,400 Speaker 1: have to say it's uh, it's very well done. It's 1651 01:32:23,400 --> 01:32:26,439 Speaker 1: pretty compelling, and there's like five or six seasons of 1652 01:32:26,439 --> 01:32:29,200 Speaker 1: it at least, so if you're looking to burn some town, 1653 01:32:29,240 --> 01:32:32,160 Speaker 1: that's one way to go. My two brothers are both 1654 01:32:32,240 --> 01:32:37,160 Speaker 1: now rewatching The Wire as a series, so that's I 1655 01:32:37,240 --> 01:32:38,960 Speaker 1: might jump into that too, just so we can start 1656 01:32:39,000 --> 01:32:42,040 Speaker 1: making all the references to each other from the series. 1657 01:32:42,080 --> 01:32:44,960 Speaker 1: The Wire is obviously great if you have not seen 1658 01:32:44,960 --> 01:32:50,519 Speaker 1: it oh before, I forget everyone, um and I would 1659 01:32:50,600 --> 01:32:53,480 Speaker 1: like to give you some tips for the best Thanksgiving 1660 01:32:53,479 --> 01:32:56,000 Speaker 1: meal possible. But I really am not a I don't 1661 01:32:56,000 --> 01:32:58,080 Speaker 1: have a lot of I've never cooked a turkey. My 1662 01:32:58,160 --> 01:32:59,960 Speaker 1: mom or one of my family members has always been 1663 01:32:59,960 --> 01:33:01,599 Speaker 1: a chart of the turkey, so I have no turkey 1664 01:33:01,640 --> 01:33:06,280 Speaker 1: skills whatsoever. I'll try to think of something I can 1665 01:33:06,360 --> 01:33:08,120 Speaker 1: to tell you that you know to do that would 1666 01:33:08,120 --> 01:33:12,479 Speaker 1: be useful for your Thanksgiving feast. But in the meantime, 1667 01:33:13,680 --> 01:33:15,840 Speaker 1: some of you pointing this out, and I am embarrassed 1668 01:33:15,880 --> 01:33:19,599 Speaker 1: at this mistake. I said ubermant fast on the show, 1669 01:33:19,680 --> 01:33:23,720 Speaker 1: which is just just it's it's not good, you know, 1670 01:33:23,920 --> 01:33:28,680 Speaker 1: buck buck ist Uba does not mean fast, and I 1671 01:33:28,760 --> 01:33:33,719 Speaker 1: don't know why I got it wrong. Ubo means above. 1672 01:33:34,120 --> 01:33:41,240 Speaker 1: It is a you know, it is a preposition, so yeah, 1673 01:33:41,320 --> 01:33:43,519 Speaker 1: it's not an adverb. It's not an adverb. I do 1674 01:33:43,640 --> 01:33:46,360 Speaker 1: not know why I made that mistake. Many I've got 1675 01:33:46,360 --> 01:33:49,000 Speaker 1: German speakers who listened to the show and they were 1676 01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:51,600 Speaker 1: like buck for Reels, like you're going to make this 1677 01:33:52,200 --> 01:33:59,599 Speaker 1: very embarrassing mistake. Yeah, it's not fantastic. So yeah, yeah 1678 01:33:59,640 --> 01:34:01,760 Speaker 1: I was. I was wrong on that one. My whole 1679 01:34:01,760 --> 01:34:03,720 Speaker 1: thing on Uber. I don't know why I actually took 1680 01:34:03,760 --> 01:34:05,439 Speaker 1: German for a couple of years. It was a long 1681 01:34:05,479 --> 01:34:09,160 Speaker 1: time ago, well embarrassing. French was always my best, and 1682 01:34:09,200 --> 01:34:12,320 Speaker 1: then I was on the German and on the very 1683 01:34:12,320 --> 01:34:16,639 Speaker 1: on the Arabic, you know, like I don't even know, 1684 01:34:16,840 --> 01:34:18,559 Speaker 1: you know, I could. I could probably sit here and 1685 01:34:18,600 --> 01:34:20,720 Speaker 1: rattle off about a hundred total words in Arabic and 1686 01:34:21,040 --> 01:34:23,760 Speaker 1: write about ten of them. So I've lost a lot 1687 01:34:23,800 --> 01:34:25,880 Speaker 1: of what I once had in the Arabic language skills. 1688 01:34:26,560 --> 01:34:28,679 Speaker 1: Although I do know more than of the people who 1689 01:34:28,680 --> 01:34:31,800 Speaker 1: go on TV and pretend to be experts in the 1690 01:34:31,840 --> 01:34:34,519 Speaker 1: Middle East. I know more Arabic than them, so that's 1691 01:34:34,520 --> 01:34:37,599 Speaker 1: always fun. So with that, my friends, I am going 1692 01:34:37,640 --> 01:34:40,719 Speaker 1: to roll into a quick break. When I come back, 1693 01:34:40,840 --> 01:34:43,400 Speaker 1: you're gonna hear from Tye and Amy. We're gonna talk Thanksgiving, 1694 01:34:43,960 --> 01:34:47,559 Speaker 1: and then we'll have Team Bucks speaks. So stay with me. 1695 01:34:48,479 --> 01:34:53,880 Speaker 1: You're either on your way team to hang out with family, friends, 1696 01:34:53,960 --> 01:34:57,320 Speaker 1: whomever it is that you're spending Thanksgiving with, or perhaps 1697 01:34:58,000 --> 01:35:03,080 Speaker 1: you are doing your last minute shopping, food planning, all 1698 01:35:03,120 --> 01:35:07,200 Speaker 1: that stuff. I just went through the experience of going 1699 01:35:07,240 --> 01:35:09,920 Speaker 1: into a midtown grocery store here in New York to 1700 01:35:09,920 --> 01:35:12,160 Speaker 1: pick up some last minute items, and it was like 1701 01:35:12,240 --> 01:35:15,920 Speaker 1: the apocalypse was nigh. The people were just they were 1702 01:35:16,200 --> 01:35:18,600 Speaker 1: They were stepping over bodies in that grocery store or 1703 01:35:18,720 --> 01:35:20,920 Speaker 1: left and right. It was every man for himself. I'm 1704 01:35:20,920 --> 01:35:23,040 Speaker 1: pretty sure I saw a ninety year old woman throw 1705 01:35:23,080 --> 01:35:27,120 Speaker 1: a flying elbow to get the last bit of lamb chop. 1706 01:35:27,280 --> 01:35:29,840 Speaker 1: So it's it's kind of crazy right now at this point, 1707 01:35:30,040 --> 01:35:33,720 Speaker 1: hopefully you're not stuck in that insane traffic jam that 1708 01:35:33,840 --> 01:35:37,639 Speaker 1: started yesterday in Los Angeles that was making the rounds 1709 01:35:37,640 --> 01:35:41,000 Speaker 1: on the Drudge Report. Uh this year, Well, I'll tell 1710 01:35:41,000 --> 01:35:43,080 Speaker 1: you what I'm doing, but I'm also gonna bring in 1711 01:35:43,439 --> 01:35:47,160 Speaker 1: our our freedom Hunt team here because this is a Wednesday, 1712 01:35:47,320 --> 01:35:50,559 Speaker 1: Holiday free for all in the Hut. We got Tyrone 1713 01:35:50,600 --> 01:35:53,240 Speaker 1: and Amy here and now Tyrone, of course chats will 1714 01:35:53,280 --> 01:35:55,400 Speaker 1: be all the time on here. Amy. This time around, 1715 01:35:55,760 --> 01:35:59,800 Speaker 1: we asked if she would share her holiday plans.

Tyrone is 1718 01:36:06,040 --> 01:36:09,639 Speaker 1: gonna go first. Amy is not, you know she she's 1719 01:36:09,680 --> 01:36:14,120 Speaker 1: a little a little shy about coming on air. It's okay, alright, Tyrone. 1720 01:36:14,160 --> 01:36:16,680 Speaker 1: What are your holiday plans with my friends? What are you? 1721 01:36:16,760 --> 01:36:18,360 Speaker 1: What are my friend? What are you doing over Thanksgiving? 1722 01:36:18,880 --> 01:36:20,800 Speaker 1: It's a it's a busy day for my wife and I. 1723 01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:23,360 Speaker 1: First we have I have two dinners, though, which is nice, 1724 01:36:23,760 --> 01:36:27,800 Speaker 1: double dinner, double dinner. So my family, when I got 1725 01:36:27,840 --> 01:36:30,080 Speaker 1: to about twelve or thirteen, we're like, why do we 1726 01:36:30,080 --> 01:36:32,439 Speaker 1: eat dinner at like one o'clock? And everybody said they 1727 01:36:32,439 --> 01:36:34,040 Speaker 1: didn't know why. It was just one of those because 1728 01:36:34,040 --> 01:36:36,240 Speaker 1: we always did, so we stopped. So now that moves 1729 01:36:36,280 --> 01:36:39,839 Speaker 1: to like six o'clock. So because of that, my wife's 1730 01:36:39,840 --> 01:36:42,280 Speaker 1: dinners at one o'clock. So we go to that dinner, 1731 01:36:42,960 --> 01:36:44,920 Speaker 1: spend time with everybody there. Then we head to my 1732 01:36:45,080 --> 01:36:49,560 Speaker 1: uncle's house do another dinner, so we do double Thanksgiving 1733 01:36:49,560 --> 01:36:52,640 Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving Day, and then usually because my brother is 1734 01:36:52,680 --> 01:36:54,680 Speaker 1: a manager ad retail place and now they have to 1735 01:36:54,720 --> 01:36:57,280 Speaker 1: work Thanksgiving it most places, I then bring him a 1736 01:36:57,280 --> 01:37:00,160 Speaker 1: plate of food to his job because he can't really 1737 01:37:00,200 --> 01:37:03,240 Speaker 1: have thanks You're a good man, but let me ask 1738 01:37:03,360 --> 01:37:07,240 Speaker 1: how do you handle having two giant Thanksgiving feasts? Because 1739 01:37:07,680 --> 01:37:10,599 Speaker 1: I mean, for me, I gotta go one of those 1740 01:37:10,640 --> 01:37:13,880 Speaker 1: belts that's like, uh, that's like adjustable, like a braided belt. 1741 01:37:13,920 --> 01:37:15,639 Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta leave room. You know, I gotta 1742 01:37:15,720 --> 01:37:17,320 Speaker 1: leave room. Do you do you go for like a 1743 01:37:17,360 --> 01:37:20,320 Speaker 1: long jog the morning of I mean two big Thanksgiving 1744 01:37:20,360 --> 01:37:22,439 Speaker 1: me a lot. I always run in the morning on 1745 01:37:22,560 --> 01:37:26,240 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving at least three miles, sometimes a little more. Um, 1746 01:37:26,720 --> 01:37:29,200 Speaker 1: it's gonna be pretty chilly, so tomorrow be just three miles. 1747 01:37:29,200 --> 01:37:31,200 Speaker 1: All right, let's let's get right into this tyrone. The 1748 01:37:31,320 --> 01:37:34,040 Speaker 1: single best thing that one eats on Thanksgiving is what 1749 01:37:34,320 --> 01:37:38,200 Speaker 1: for me, the macaronian cheese. You just can't beat it. 1750 01:37:38,680 --> 01:37:40,519 Speaker 1: You just can't beat it. I've I've seen some people 1751 01:37:40,520 --> 01:37:43,680 Speaker 1: on Twitter trying to say that's not good food, and 1752 01:37:43,760 --> 01:37:46,280 Speaker 1: I've every person that said that, I've personally attacked. So 1753 01:37:46,360 --> 01:37:49,519 Speaker 1: far on you you all, it all goes out the 1754 01:37:49,520 --> 01:37:54,360 Speaker 1: window of the second somebody messes with the mac and cheese. Um, so, yes, yes, indeed, 1755 01:37:54,400 --> 01:37:57,880 Speaker 1: I'm a I'm really, I'll be honest, I'm a I'm 1756 01:37:57,920 --> 01:38:00,920 Speaker 1: a mass sweet potato man. So you know, I like 1757 01:38:00,960 --> 01:38:03,320 Speaker 1: to sweep potato. I'm a mashweet potato man. And uh, 1758 01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:10,559 Speaker 1: I'm also a gluten free stuffing. Obviously, gluten free stuffing 1759 01:38:10,640 --> 01:38:13,719 Speaker 1: can be very good, but you gotta it's usually stuffing 1760 01:38:13,760 --> 01:38:16,400 Speaker 1: in general is amazing, right, Like stuffing is kind of 1761 01:38:16,400 --> 01:38:19,879 Speaker 1: like chocolate or pizza. It's just on a spectrum of awesome. 1762 01:38:20,360 --> 01:38:24,040 Speaker 1: But gluten free stuffing actually can be pretty lame. So 1763 01:38:24,120 --> 01:38:26,000 Speaker 1: you've got to make sure you get the good. But 1764 01:38:26,240 --> 01:38:30,120 Speaker 1: it can be good. You're just changing out the bread 1765 01:38:30,280 --> 01:38:32,760 Speaker 1: for a different kind of bread, but it cannot not 1766 01:38:32,800 --> 01:38:35,960 Speaker 1: always be the best. By the way. Very fierce discussion 1767 01:38:36,080 --> 01:38:40,360 Speaker 1: that um I'm seeing, uh is that some people just 1768 01:38:40,400 --> 01:38:43,000 Speaker 1: say that turkey is just not not a top tier meat. 1769 01:38:43,360 --> 01:38:46,360 Speaker 1: That really you've got to go pork, You've got to go, 1770 01:38:46,640 --> 01:38:48,840 Speaker 1: you know. Ham A lot of people get into what Thanksgiving. 1771 01:38:49,200 --> 01:38:52,240 Speaker 1: Some of I've even seen say they go roast chicken 1772 01:38:52,479 --> 01:38:56,640 Speaker 1: over turkey purely on taste grounds. What say you? Tyrone? 1773 01:38:56,840 --> 01:38:58,920 Speaker 1: See the problem with the turkey for me? Always back 1774 01:38:58,960 --> 01:39:01,760 Speaker 1: when I ate turkey was I only like the dark meat. 1775 01:39:02,080 --> 01:39:04,679 Speaker 1: So how can something be top flight if I only 1776 01:39:04,720 --> 01:39:07,719 Speaker 1: like a small part of it? The white meat chicken 1777 01:39:07,760 --> 01:39:09,920 Speaker 1: I do like the white meat turkey I don't like. 1778 01:39:10,400 --> 01:39:13,040 Speaker 1: So chicken blows it away. Pork forget about it. And 1779 01:39:13,080 --> 01:39:16,280 Speaker 1: we also remind how my family they do the ham 1780 01:39:16,320 --> 01:39:20,120 Speaker 1: and they do the roast beef alright, So in addition 1781 01:39:20,160 --> 01:39:21,920 Speaker 1: to the turkey, it's a lot of food. So Tyrone 1782 01:39:22,000 --> 01:39:24,880 Speaker 1: goes with a double feast everybody. He's all in. He's 1783 01:39:24,880 --> 01:39:28,840 Speaker 1: going to be having a great time. Ms Amy, producer Amy, 1784 01:39:28,880 --> 01:39:30,880 Speaker 1: would you like to tell us a little bit about 1785 01:39:31,160 --> 01:39:33,599 Speaker 1: You'll notice that that Amy she gives me like hand 1786 01:39:33,640 --> 01:39:36,040 Speaker 1: signals and stuff during the show, but usually doesn't come 1787 01:39:36,080 --> 01:39:37,960 Speaker 1: on air. So there's a special treat for all of 1788 01:39:38,000 --> 01:39:40,880 Speaker 1: you listening unless you call in. I would note Amy 1789 01:39:40,960 --> 01:39:44,200 Speaker 1: is the one who handles calls during the show. But 1790 01:39:44,320 --> 01:39:49,880 Speaker 1: Amy tell us producer Amy, tell us about your Thanksgiving plans? Sure? Um, well, 1791 01:39:50,040 --> 01:39:53,200 Speaker 1: this Thanksgiving is pretty special. It's my dad's fiftieth birthday, 1792 01:39:53,360 --> 01:39:57,320 Speaker 1: so there's like probably forty of us all getting together, um, 1793 01:39:57,360 --> 01:40:01,560 Speaker 1: basically eating, drinking, sleeping until probably two in the afternoon. 1794 01:40:02,040 --> 01:40:04,799 Speaker 1: When is your dance birthday? Exactly because my brother's birthday 1795 01:40:04,840 --> 01:40:10,880 Speaker 1: is no, we're gonna be doing a double celebration as well, 1796 01:40:10,880 --> 01:40:13,280 Speaker 1: but exactly, and we don't We don't eat till like 1797 01:40:13,360 --> 01:40:16,240 Speaker 1: nine o'clock at night, so it's a little bit different. 1798 01:40:16,240 --> 01:40:17,599 Speaker 1: And then we're up all night too. Do you help 1799 01:40:17,640 --> 01:40:18,960 Speaker 1: with do you help with the cooking? And by the way, 1800 01:40:18,960 --> 01:40:20,640 Speaker 1: tie also after Amy tells me, do you help with 1801 01:40:20,640 --> 01:40:23,559 Speaker 1: the cooking? But first Amy, Um, it's only been recently. 1802 01:40:23,720 --> 01:40:26,920 Speaker 1: I would probably burn down the kitchen. But I'm actually 1803 01:40:27,000 --> 01:40:28,960 Speaker 1: pretty good at the mashed potatoes and put cream cheese 1804 01:40:29,000 --> 01:40:31,320 Speaker 1: in it, which is my little secret sauce. Yeah, yeah, 1805 01:40:31,320 --> 01:40:33,920 Speaker 1: it's really good. I that with scrambled eggs sometimes, by 1806 01:40:33,920 --> 01:40:36,680 Speaker 1: the way, really cream cheese. Oh yeah, it works very 1807 01:40:36,680 --> 01:40:38,680 Speaker 1: well for scrambled eggs. People don't think of it that way. 1808 01:40:38,720 --> 01:40:41,439 Speaker 1: They think of bagels and stuff. It's a little secret 1809 01:40:41,560 --> 01:40:43,760 Speaker 1: if you actually have for scrambled eggs, I'll have you know. 1810 01:40:43,920 --> 01:40:47,120 Speaker 1: I'm letting all the secrets out now. Cram fresh if 1811 01:40:47,120 --> 01:40:48,320 Speaker 1: you want to get a little if you want to 1812 01:40:48,320 --> 01:40:50,920 Speaker 1: get a little fruit fruit with your eggs, it add 1813 01:40:50,920 --> 01:40:54,280 Speaker 1: a little special something. I'm just saying, Tyrone, do you cook? Yes, 1814 01:40:54,320 --> 01:40:56,680 Speaker 1: because I don't eat meat, So the turkey and all 1815 01:40:56,720 --> 01:41:00,360 Speaker 1: that stuff is going for me. So I bring ripping 1816 01:41:00,400 --> 01:41:04,679 Speaker 1: scallops to one over over pasta, and then I'll bring 1817 01:41:04,760 --> 01:41:07,559 Speaker 1: salmon to the other and then other people can partake. 1818 01:41:07,720 --> 01:41:10,320 Speaker 1: You don't eat meat, mind is blown over here. I 1819 01:41:10,320 --> 01:41:11,880 Speaker 1: I don't even know what to say. Is that a 1820 01:41:11,880 --> 01:41:14,519 Speaker 1: new thing? I'm pescuterian. Know it's been a four and 1821 01:41:14,560 --> 01:41:17,280 Speaker 1: a half years. So is this just a is it 1822 01:41:17,600 --> 01:41:21,080 Speaker 1: uh health thing? Taste thing? Just you know, started as 1823 01:41:21,120 --> 01:41:23,840 Speaker 1: one of those dirty day challenges, and all of a 1824 01:41:23,880 --> 01:41:26,920 Speaker 1: sudden I went from being in insomniac to sleeping all 1825 01:41:26,960 --> 01:41:29,400 Speaker 1: through the night, went to a doctor. And some people 1826 01:41:29,520 --> 01:41:33,760 Speaker 1: have a tougher time digesting meat than others. Food intolerance 1827 01:41:33,880 --> 01:41:36,040 Speaker 1: is something that people are the whole world is learning 1828 01:41:36,040 --> 01:41:37,479 Speaker 1: more and more about all the time. Look, I'm I'm 1829 01:41:37,479 --> 01:41:40,720 Speaker 1: Celiac and I found out about five years ago. But 1830 01:41:40,920 --> 01:41:43,720 Speaker 1: I would note that I have been lying to my 1831 01:41:44,479 --> 01:41:47,720 Speaker 1: my general practitioner probably for the last decade whenever they're like, 1832 01:41:47,960 --> 01:41:49,639 Speaker 1: you know, don't eat you know you don't eat red 1833 01:41:49,640 --> 01:41:51,280 Speaker 1: meat more than two or three times a week, right, 1834 01:41:51,320 --> 01:41:56,559 Speaker 1: I'm like yeah, and I only have bacon every single day. 1835 01:41:56,760 --> 01:41:58,840 Speaker 1: So anyway, I don't know if I could last on 1836 01:41:58,880 --> 01:42:01,599 Speaker 1: the tyrone diet.

Jeremy from in Indiana writes in Hey, Buck, 1883 01:44:26,080 --> 01:44:29,840 Speaker 1: the best thirty pound dog choice is a Corgy. My 1884 01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:32,080 Speaker 1: wife and I have one, and he's awesome. He has 1885 01:44:32,120 --> 01:44:36,040 Speaker 1: a big dog personality in a smaller package. Shields high. Jeremy, 1886 01:44:36,080 --> 01:44:38,639 Speaker 1: I will tell you I am quite fond of Corgies. 1887 01:44:38,680 --> 01:44:41,559 Speaker 1: And when I was growing up, my mom gave me 1888 01:44:41,640 --> 01:44:44,759 Speaker 1: this book. It was like the Official American Kennel Club 1889 01:44:45,479 --> 01:44:48,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, handbook or it was like the Encyclopedia 1890 01:44:48,240 --> 01:44:50,320 Speaker 1: of Dogs. And this is pre Internet, because you know, 1891 01:44:50,400 --> 01:44:54,479 Speaker 1: I'm old, So I looked through this thing. The binding 1892 01:44:54,560 --> 01:44:56,160 Speaker 1: was falling off of it by the time I was 1893 01:44:56,200 --> 01:44:58,160 Speaker 1: done with it. Over the years and I had taken 1894 01:44:58,160 --> 01:45:00,559 Speaker 1: a marker because I was a kid and made all 1895 01:45:00,600 --> 01:45:02,680 Speaker 1: these little notes and check marks and things on the 1896 01:45:02,720 --> 01:45:06,960 Speaker 1: different pages. And I went through phases and actually Corgy 1897 01:45:07,280 --> 01:45:11,080 Speaker 1: was one of the phases, also English bulldog. There was 1898 01:45:11,080 --> 01:45:13,640 Speaker 1: a time when I wanted a Golden Retriever, but I 1899 01:45:13,680 --> 01:45:17,160 Speaker 1: thought Corgies were great and I thought they were cool 1900 01:45:17,240 --> 01:45:21,000 Speaker 1: before well, they they were very fashionable in New York 1901 01:45:21,040 --> 01:45:22,880 Speaker 1: for a while, but I was I was ahead of that, 1902 01:45:23,400 --> 01:45:27,200 Speaker 1: ahead of that trend. So thank you for the recommendation, 1903 01:45:27,280 --> 01:45:29,120 Speaker 1: and I will certainly look into it. I don't know 1904 01:45:29,120 --> 01:45:31,000 Speaker 1: how many quargies there are to rescue out there. I'm 1905 01:45:31,000 --> 01:45:34,720 Speaker 1: assuming they're uh, They're tough to come by, But in 1906 01:45:34,800 --> 01:45:39,040 Speaker 1: the meantime, I thank you for your thoughts. All right now, 1907 01:45:39,080 --> 01:45:43,040 Speaker 1: we have Tanner writing in Hey Buck. I'm a twenty 1908 01:45:43,040 --> 01:45:46,240 Speaker 1: five year old Team Buck member from Texas. I've listening 1909 01:45:46,240 --> 01:45:49,120 Speaker 1: to your show for almost two years and currently listen 1910 01:45:49,160 --> 01:45:51,280 Speaker 1: to the show via podcast in the I heart app 1911 01:45:51,720 --> 01:45:54,160 Speaker 1: something I look forward to every day. I wanted to 1912 01:45:54,200 --> 01:45:57,960 Speaker 1: comment on your segment from Monday about elephant hunting. Like you, 1913 01:45:58,080 --> 01:46:00,920 Speaker 1: I grew up hunting with my family. In the process, 1914 01:46:00,960 --> 01:46:04,720 Speaker 1: I learned to respect nature. I believe animals should only 1915 01:46:04,720 --> 01:46:06,920 Speaker 1: be killed for food or when they are a threat. 1916 01:46:07,280 --> 01:46:09,600 Speaker 1: So I think you are a correct to say that 1917 01:46:09,680 --> 01:46:12,720 Speaker 1: elephants should not be hunted. Thank you for the work 1918 01:46:12,760 --> 01:46:16,280 Speaker 1: that you Tie and Amy. Thank you guys as well. Uh, 1919 01:46:16,320 --> 01:46:18,400 Speaker 1: and thank you for your service Shields High Well, Tanner, 1920 01:46:18,439 --> 01:46:21,479 Speaker 1: thanks for the note, and you know, look, I'm there 1921 01:46:21,479 --> 01:46:24,439 Speaker 1: are times when i feel very strongly that I'm right 1922 01:46:24,520 --> 01:46:26,000 Speaker 1: on an issue. There are times when i have an 1923 01:46:26,000 --> 01:46:28,040 Speaker 1: opinion but I'm not sure, and there are times when 1924 01:46:28,080 --> 01:46:30,760 Speaker 1: I'm quite honestly still trying to figure out what's true 1925 01:46:30,760 --> 01:46:34,479 Speaker 1: and what's not. And with big game hunting, I I'm 1926 01:46:34,520 --> 01:46:38,759 Speaker 1: not condemning or or declaring that I can't imagine why 1927 01:46:38,680 --> 01:46:41,760 Speaker 1: we do it. I just think that for me, I 1928 01:46:42,120 --> 01:46:44,439 Speaker 1: don't it doesn't make sense. I don't understand it, and 1929 01:46:44,880 --> 01:46:46,640 Speaker 1: I'm that's why I'm open to it's while we had 1930 01:46:46,680 --> 01:46:50,280 Speaker 1: an expert joining us to talk about it. Uh. Anyway, 1931 01:46:50,320 --> 01:46:52,639 Speaker 1: thank you so much, Tanner and Shields High to you. 1932 01:46:53,760 --> 01:46:57,639 Speaker 1: Greg writes in Dear Book.

I thought 1946 01:47:33,600 --> 01:47:36,639 Speaker 1: sc Cup was going to be a big success, and 1947 01:47:36,720 --> 01:47:39,240 Speaker 1: she now uh, actually she's doing great. By the way, 1948 01:47:39,240 --> 01:47:42,439 Speaker 1: she has her show over at h L n UM, 1949 01:47:42,560 --> 01:47:44,559 Speaker 1: which I've been a panelist on a couple of times. 1950 01:47:45,080 --> 01:47:47,519 Speaker 1: By the way, who is that other guy on Real News? 1951 01:47:47,880 --> 01:47:49,960 Speaker 1: He and s he started a radio show for a 1952 01:47:49,960 --> 01:47:53,559 Speaker 1: bit um. I was shocked to hear that you were 1953 01:47:53,600 --> 01:47:55,760 Speaker 1: not making any money doing the Saturday show, and glad 1954 01:47:55,800 --> 01:47:57,479 Speaker 1: it worked out for you in the end, Shields High, Well, 1955 01:47:57,520 --> 01:48:00,400 Speaker 1: thank you, Greg. The other guy is Will Can, and 1956 01:48:00,680 --> 01:48:03,519 Speaker 1: I'm pleased to tell you that Will is doing very well. 1957 01:48:03,600 --> 01:48:06,320 Speaker 1: He's got a sports radio show that I believe is 1958 01:48:06,360 --> 01:48:09,240 Speaker 1: in syndication now, so he's he's done quite well for himself. 1959 01:48:09,240 --> 01:48:10,960 Speaker 1: He went over to ESPN, Tyrone, do you know what 1960 01:48:11,000 --> 01:48:12,320 Speaker 1: the show is or what's going on with it? You 1961 01:48:12,320 --> 01:48:14,040 Speaker 1: would know better than I would. I think it's just 1962 01:48:14,080 --> 01:48:16,479 Speaker 1: called the wil Kaine Show. There we go in sports 1963 01:48:16,520 --> 01:48:22,160 Speaker 1: stuff at ESPN Sports. But he's also on ESPN TV regularly. 1964 01:48:22,640 --> 01:48:24,479 Speaker 1: And one of those things where they say there's no 1965 01:48:24,520 --> 01:48:28,080 Speaker 1: conservatives at ESPN, that's false. Will Kaine is actually very 1966 01:48:28,080 --> 01:48:31,960 Speaker 1: well respected at ESPN. Not defending the whole operation, but 1967 01:48:32,040 --> 01:48:34,240 Speaker 1: wil Kaine is asked to speak and he has not 1968 01:48:34,280 --> 01:48:37,360 Speaker 1: cut off and people actually like him and he is conservative. Well, good, well, 1969 01:48:37,400 --> 01:48:40,080 Speaker 1: congratulations to Will. And uh, I knew that he's doing 1970 01:48:40,120 --> 01:48:42,479 Speaker 1: well with the radio show. I don't watch ESPN ever, 1971 01:48:42,560 --> 01:48:45,360 Speaker 1: so I have no idea who's honit or who's not. Yeah, 1972 01:48:45,439 --> 01:48:47,400 Speaker 1: I'm glad, all right, thank you, Tyrone. And so yeah, no, 1973 01:48:47,479 --> 01:48:49,680 Speaker 1: Will's Will is doing great and I'll be sure to 1974 01:48:49,720 --> 01:48:53,120 Speaker 1: give him a uh a high five and a heads 1975 01:48:53,200 --> 01:48:55,000 Speaker 1: up from the team. Yeah, he went over into the 1976 01:48:55,040 --> 01:48:58,519 Speaker 1: world of sports, which sometimes you know, trust me, it'd 1977 01:48:58,520 --> 01:49:02,120 Speaker 1: be nice to do more sport and a little less 1978 01:49:02,760 --> 01:49:06,160 Speaker 1: arguing with people all the time. UM, so there you there, 1979 01:49:06,200 --> 01:49:08,360 Speaker 1: you have it. But I love this political stuff. What 1980 01:49:08,400 --> 01:49:12,320 Speaker 1: can I do? So? Uh, John writes in the following. 1981 01:49:12,360 --> 01:49:14,920 Speaker 1: Then now we're going to the Facebook messages from the team. 1982 01:49:15,000 --> 01:49:17,000 Speaker 1: John writes in with the following, Buck, I am with 1983 01:49:17,040 --> 01:49:19,760 Speaker 1: you on big game hunting. I am a hunter, but 1984 01:49:19,800 --> 01:49:22,320 Speaker 1: my rule is you eat what you kill. I don't 1985 01:49:22,439 --> 01:49:25,479 Speaker 1: understand wanted to kill a majestic beast just for sport. 1986 01:49:25,920 --> 01:49:28,880 Speaker 1: I vote making it illegal to bring a trophy kill 1987 01:49:29,040 --> 01:49:31,840 Speaker 1: back into this country. Well, John, I agree with you, 1988 01:49:31,880 --> 01:49:34,240 Speaker 1: but I'm open minded about it. Right, So I'm I'm 1989 01:49:34,280 --> 01:49:36,320 Speaker 1: willing to hear the other side on this, and I 1990 01:49:36,360 --> 01:49:41,799 Speaker 1: want to understand more about it than I do. Uh. 1991 01:49:42,000 --> 01:49:46,000 Speaker 1: Let's see what else we have here. Um. Carrie gets 1992 01:49:46,120 --> 01:49:49,240 Speaker 1: into the discussion here with the following will you discuss 1993 01:49:49,439 --> 01:49:52,760 Speaker 1: net neutrality? I don't get it. You always make things 1994 01:49:52,880 --> 01:49:56,760 Speaker 1: easier to understand. Carrie. First of all, thank you very 1995 01:49:56,840 --> 01:49:58,320 Speaker 1: kind of you. It's one of the things I try 1996 01:49:58,400 --> 01:50:02,280 Speaker 1: to do here on the show is breakdown, uh, difficult 1997 01:50:02,439 --> 01:50:05,760 Speaker 1: things that are you know, out there in the news 1998 01:50:05,800 --> 01:50:09,280 Speaker 1: cycle and try to be as clear and fair minded 1999 01:50:09,280 --> 01:50:12,400 Speaker 1: about it as I can. That said, I obviously didn't 2000 01:50:12,439 --> 01:50:16,960 Speaker 1: really get into it in detail today. UM, so I 2001 01:50:17,000 --> 01:50:19,680 Speaker 1: will have to just leave it there for now than 2002 01:50:19,760 --> 01:50:21,760 Speaker 1: to say that I will. I will get into the 2003 01:50:21,760 --> 01:50:24,200 Speaker 1: subject later. People are interested, I think, because they want 2004 01:50:24,200 --> 01:50:26,880 Speaker 1: to know and understand. It is tough, I will say, 2005 01:50:26,920 --> 01:50:30,680 Speaker 1: to make a net neutrality discussion really gripping. You know, 2006 01:50:30,760 --> 01:50:33,679 Speaker 1: it's it's difficult for me to make the case that 2007 01:50:33,920 --> 01:50:37,680 Speaker 1: net neutrality is uh something that I can spend a 2008 01:50:37,680 --> 01:50:40,160 Speaker 1: lot of time on on air. But it is obviously 2009 01:50:40,160 --> 01:50:42,240 Speaker 1: a big news story. It does have major implications, and 2010 01:50:42,280 --> 01:50:44,679 Speaker 1: I will try to get into it. I'd also note 2011 01:50:44,720 --> 01:50:48,280 Speaker 1: that bitcoin, which I had mentioned before, that is a 2012 01:50:48,320 --> 01:50:51,360 Speaker 1: subject we will return to after the Thanksgiving break and 2013 01:50:51,400 --> 01:50:52,680 Speaker 1: we will do a deep dive on that because I 2014 01:50:52,720 --> 01:50:57,800 Speaker 1: think it's very important. Uh. We have Matthew writing in 2015 01:50:58,080 --> 01:51:00,360 Speaker 1: hy Buck. You're correct when you wrote powerful then using 2016 01:51:00,360 --> 01:51:03,320 Speaker 1: their position to try and induce or when you said, uh, 2017 01:51:03,400 --> 01:51:06,799 Speaker 1: induced coerce or force sex from women has been around 2018 01:51:06,800 --> 01:51:09,679 Speaker 1: for a very very long time. However, no one sees 2019 01:51:09,720 --> 01:51:12,599 Speaker 1: to be mentioning that that what else has been going 2020 01:51:12,640 --> 01:51:15,840 Speaker 1: on for years, which is women using their sexuality to 2021 01:51:16,479 --> 01:51:21,920 Speaker 1: get things in the professional realm Uh, well, you know, Matthew, 2022 01:51:22,040 --> 01:51:24,040 Speaker 1: I think we have to we have to separate those 2023 01:51:24,080 --> 01:51:29,000 Speaker 1: issues out and that's a that's another discussion that unfortunately, 2024 01:51:29,000 --> 01:51:31,639 Speaker 1: with thirty seconds here before I'm gonna get cut off 2025 01:51:31,680 --> 01:51:33,640 Speaker 1: the air, I can't really get into. But I do 2026 01:51:33,680 --> 01:51:37,960 Speaker 1: appreciate your note and I will return to that. I 2027 01:51:38,000 --> 01:51:41,080 Speaker 1: will return to your comment after the break aries. One 2028 01:51:41,160 --> 01:51:43,240 Speaker 1: last one, he writes, an oxygen thief is a self 2029 01:51:43,280 --> 01:51:48,400 Speaker 1: explanatory insult. Indeed, aries, I'm I'm aware of where the 2030 01:51:48,439 --> 01:51:52,280 Speaker 1: insult comes from, and there we have it. So team, 2031 01:51:52,320 --> 01:51:55,519 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to leave it there for this free 2032 01:51:55,560 --> 01:51:59,519 Speaker 1: for all Wednesday edition of The Buck Sexton Show.
