1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,920 Speaker 1: The global warming crew there. It's so classic. I just 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 1: love it. They're going down to Antarctic, the South Pole 3 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 1: for those of you in real Inda, and they're going 4 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,360 Speaker 1: to prove that there's so much global warming that they're 5 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 1: in any ice are very little ice, that it's melting, 6 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: and they it's a cruise and they get stuck in 7 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:23,959 Speaker 1: the ice, far far away from their intended destination, so 8 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:27,600 Speaker 1: icebreakers are called in the icebreakers get stuck. As a 9 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 1: chikom icebreaker that got stuck, they needed all of these 10 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:37,520 Speaker 1: fossil fuel gigaic ships to rescue them after a week, 11 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,520 Speaker 1: and every news to every one of them put this way. 12 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 1: Not one news story makes the connection that these are 13 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:53,159 Speaker 1: a bunch of hypocrites. Not one notes the irony. They 14 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: just talk about a brave bunch of scientists needing to 15 00:00:56,040 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: be rescued in Antarctica. Meanwhile, we have more record lows 16 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: last year than record highs. And in Green Bay for 17 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: football this Sunday, oh so in Green Bay on Sunday 18 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: afternoon Eastern time, the San Francisco of Foreigners will show 19 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: up for a wild card playoff game against the Green 20 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: Bay Packers, quarterbacked by Aaron Rodgers, who said this week 21 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: he's not gay. Now that's a fascinating thing to meet too. Folks. 22 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:29,960 Speaker 1: We're gonna be hot scotching all over the place today 23 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: because I've been big gone over two weeks. I'm just 24 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: getting back here in the saddle and it's going to 25 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: be a stream of consciousness show, which means I don't 26 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: even know what I'm gonna say next, but thankfully I 27 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: have the helpful staff to help me finish my sentences. 28 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: Year well, because apparently there were internet rumors at Aaron 29 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: Rodgers is gay, which I had not seen. This is 30 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: a fascinating media study. I had not seen it, not granted, 31 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: I'm out of town, I'm on vacation, and I am 32 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: off the grid. I didn't turn on the television until 33 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: New Year's Eve to watch that stuff, and even that 34 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: was a chore, so I wasn't aware. And I was, 35 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: I was, I was, I was doing show prep with 36 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: the computer. But even at that I didn't see any 37 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: of this. But apparently on social media it was out there. 38 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers was gay, but I didn't know it until 39 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 1: he chose to deny it on his radio show. Now 40 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 1: and therefore, what's fast as a media study his denial 41 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 1: is what made it a national story, not the allegation 42 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:42,079 Speaker 1: by whoever was making it. He chose to deny it. No, 43 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,359 Speaker 1: no, no no, I love women. I don't know where I've 44 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 1: done any laughed it off, but up until that nobody 45 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: even knew it, so I only mention it as a 46 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: It's a great illustration of how media works. Because we've 47 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: talked over the years. Now I am continuously attacked mercy 48 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: mostly so. In fact, folks, I've got soundbites said when 49 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: I was gone. They're still beating me up over this 50 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: Pope business. I got these sound bites. It's it's incredible. 51 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 1: And you know what I find most fascinating about it, 52 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,959 Speaker 1: The left finally is happy they've got a church again. 53 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: Because of me, the left has felt comfortable now you'll 54 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 1: hear it embracing the Catholic Church. This is a phenomenal 55 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: achievement on my part. There aren't too many people who 56 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: could have turned atheists into huge supporters of the Pope 57 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: or agnostics whatever. Oh. By the way, that means I 58 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: have to thank the guest hosts and the guest holsts. 59 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,119 Speaker 1: We had Mark Stein as usual was in and Mark 60 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: Belling and Eric Ericsson of red state dot Com and 61 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: he sent me, I can't tell you two or three 62 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: email notes thanking me. He told me it's it's been 63 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: a lifelong dream of his to to sit behind the 64 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: golden EIB microphone, and he loved it. And he told me, 65 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: he said, I know that your show is the most 66 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: listened to, but I found evidence. I after doing your show, 67 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: He's got his own show to Atlanta. And after doing 68 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: your show, I started hearing from people that I haven't 69 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: heard from or known in years who heard me on 70 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: the radio for the first time. He was all excited. 71 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,799 Speaker 1: But I want to thank all those people for coming 72 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 1: in and hosting the program. We sincerely appreciate it. And 73 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,919 Speaker 1: they all do a bang up great job and most 74 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 1: um lonely lose about six of the audience, which is 75 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: about that that's much better than I'm sorry. I told 76 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:53,039 Speaker 1: you it's good. It's gonna be that. I made that up, folks, 77 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: and just totally I lied. I just having fun with 78 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: it here. I told you it's gonna be a st 79 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: beam of consciousness program today. So anyway, back to back 80 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: to Green Bay and a quarterback who isn't gay, Aaron 81 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: Rodgers hosting a San Francisco for diners. The forecast is 82 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: three degrees for the high and minus fifteen for the low. 83 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: The wind, oh, the wind is going to blow enough 84 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 1: that there will be a wind chill. I haven't I 85 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: haven't seen actual numbers on the on the windshield. Now. 86 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: I don't expect this to happen, but I won't be 87 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: surprised if the League postpones the game because it's just 88 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,799 Speaker 1: too cold, and it's gonna be cold in other parts 89 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: of the country too. But my point, I would love 90 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: to see at this I'd love to see Barack Obama, 91 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: Bill Clinton, Allgore sitting outside fifty yard line green Bay 92 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: the whole game and then afterwards do a presentation for 93 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: us all on global warming. Sit there the whole game outside. 94 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:10,359 Speaker 1: Do you know that the NFL, and I've been on 95 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: this kick for a while, they've got a problem. They 96 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: probably are aware of it as we speak. Three of 97 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: these four games are not sold out, and including green Bay, 98 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,159 Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers. If they don't get rid of 99 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 1: the last I heard its it's probably fewer than that. 100 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: Now by some time today, then there's going to be 101 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: a blackout. Now we all know there won't be a blackout, 102 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: jay Z or somebody will move in and buy the tickets, 103 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: or Jesse jack Jesse Jackson won't uh, somebody are moving 104 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: by that there won't be a blackout. The NFL will 105 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: not allow that to happen, but it may take an 106 00:06:55,320 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: effort beyond normal commerce to sell out tickets in three 107 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,679 Speaker 1: of the four The other two plays Cincinnati and Indianapolis 108 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: playoff games. This is there's something going on, and it's 109 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: I don't think it's just the weather and you can 110 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 1: get a much better experience at home. I think there's 111 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: more to it than that. I think the economy is 112 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: definitely a factor, and I think there are other things 113 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: going on as well are helping to create this um. 114 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: This probably
