It's a red Shirt Friday and 0:01:22.800 --> 0:01:25.880 I'm going to start out the program tonight by asking 0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:31.640 all of you to write this down. Make sure when 0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:35.760 you can, you wear a red shirt to work or 0:01:35.920 --> 0:01:40.880 to play somewhere on Friday's going forward. And it has 0:01:40.920 --> 0:01:43.280 nothing to do with unions, It has nothing to do 0:01:43.440 --> 0:01:49.440 with any other movement aside from respect. Red shirt Friday's 0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:55.280 are all about remembering the men and women who are 0:01:55.400 --> 0:01:58.520 not just in the military, but deployed. I have a 0:01:58.560 --> 0:02:02.000 friend who started wearing red shirts on Fridays, and he 0:02:02.040 --> 0:02:05.080 said to do We're doing this red shirt Friday's, Red 0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:10.920 Shirt Friday's r e D remember everyone deployed. So do 0:02:11.080 --> 0:02:14.200 me a favor. Get a red shirt out, a T shirt. 0:02:14.320 --> 0:02:16.280 I don't care if it's a golf shirt, a button 0:02:16.320 --> 0:02:19.600 down shirt, a pajama top. Wear a red shirt on 0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:23.400 a Friday. And if you can't do it now for 0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:26.600 the evening, promise me you will do it in the future. 0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:31.480 Promise me you will make the effort to remember everyone deployed, 0:02:32.520 --> 0:02:35.799 because there are so many of them out there, and 0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:38.880 so many of them feel forgotten. And if if somebody 0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:41.400 asks you, hey, what's with the red shirt every Friday? 0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:45.400 Tell them it really is vital. It's well, it's important 0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:48.600 to me, so make me happy. All right, what's on 0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:53.520 the agenda tonight? I want to talk about the president 0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:56.720 and his ability to really light up a crowd. We 0:02:56.760 --> 0:03:01.680 will get into that. There is more news on the 0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:06.400 Inspector General's report into the And I'm going to use 0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:10.799 the word collusion here, the collusion among FBI agents to 0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:14.120 try and meddle in our election. Yes, my language has 0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:18.360 chosen intentionally. I'm talking about page and struck as a 0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:21.280 new batch of memos came out, and we'll talk about 0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:26.359 that with a lawyer and author, Dr Wendy Patrick. You've 0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:28.920 seen her on Fox. She's terrific. And we'll talk with 0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:32.000 Wendy about that just around the corner. And I want 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:37.680 to talk about some fun stuff today too. Yeah, it's 0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:39.640 a Friday, so we should have a little bit of fun. 0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:48.160 And uh, last night triggered my Friday frivolous question. And uh, 0:03:48.400 --> 0:03:50.880 I was gonna call it a frivolous Friday question, but 0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:53.400 the whole night is not going to be frivolous, So 0:03:53.440 --> 0:03:57.840 it's a Friday frivolous question. I was watching Jeopardy, as 0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:02.640 is my wicked custom, and I could not believe that 0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:06.920 the three geniuses who made it through the Jeopardy selection process, 0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:09.560 and it is an arduous process to get to be 0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:14.240 a contestant on a show as Smartest Jeopardy. The three 0:04:14.280 --> 0:04:20.440 individuals totally blanked on this this topic. It was in 0:04:20.480 --> 0:04:26.239 the category of recent stuff. Check it out Recent Stuff 0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:30.120 a thousand. In two thousand seventeen, this x national security 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:35.200 advisor pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI. Okay, before 0:04:35.240 --> 0:04:39.719 I play the answers. This ex National security advisor pleaded 0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:42.640 guilty to lying to the FBI. You guys know you 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:46.359 formulate your your answers in the form of a question. 0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:49.880 You know the answer, right, We all know. I'm screaming 0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:53.080 at the TV because in our house, Jeopardy is a 0:04:53.120 --> 0:04:56.080 blood sport every night and has been for the past 0:04:56.120 --> 0:05:00.120 twenty six and a half years. And I'm screaming. My 0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:03.000 wife's going it's unfair because that's like a government question, 0:05:03.400 --> 0:05:07.279 but she destroys me on literature. So anyway, that that's 0:05:07.360 --> 0:05:10.479 the answer. Now, let's give it to you again. So 0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:13.599 I'll give you another second to formulate your answer in 0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:17.400 the form of a question. This ex National security advisor 0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:23.560 pleaded guilty to lyne to the FBI so that it 0:05:23.600 --> 0:05:29.840 was Kelly, Oh, she was Corka. No, it was Michael Flynn. 0:05:30.839 --> 0:05:34.320 They didn't know Michael Flynn. And I thought, my god, 0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:38.680 are these people sleeping in the library. Were they spending 0:05:38.720 --> 0:05:42.919 the last year studying for their Jeopardy test where they 0:05:43.040 --> 0:05:47.239 memorizing world capitals or longest rivers or the other piffle 0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:49.520 that you have to memorize to get to be a 0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:55.640 Jeopardy contestant. At that level, I was stunned. But it 0:05:55.720 --> 0:05:59.240 brought to light a question for me, the frivolous Friday Friday, 0:05:59.320 --> 0:06:03.120 frivolous question, whatever you want to call it. What is 0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:07.800 the greatest game show ever? What's the greatest game show? 0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:11.200 And there are many game shows that have appeared on television, 0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:15.200 many in my long lifetime, and I know I spent 0:06:15.960 --> 0:06:19.679 I am so old. I watched Jeopardy before Alex Trebek 0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:26.920 was the host. I watched Jeopardy and actually almost cost 0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:31.680 myself a great point in my college career because I 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:35.640 watched it every day in the dorms. And Art Fleming, 0:06:35.680 --> 0:06:38.719 the late Art Fleming, was the host, and the the 0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:44.240 announcer was none other than the guy who gave us 0:06:44.279 --> 0:06:49.200 the snl intro forever and ever and ever, so I 0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:52.000 watched Jeopardy forever. But I want to know from you 0:06:52.120 --> 0:06:54.720 the audience, the buck Sexton audience, and this is one 0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:57.599 of the smartest audiences on radio, as you've proven over 0:06:57.640 --> 0:07:02.039 and over again, and also the was clever. What's the 0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:04.440 greatest game show? And did you ever audition for a 0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:09.640 game show? I did years ago. I did an undercover 0:07:09.760 --> 0:07:13.400 audition to try and get on Wheel of Fortune. I 0:07:13.520 --> 0:07:16.160 was never a Wheel of Fortune guy, and rain Man 0:07:16.240 --> 0:07:18.680 killed it for me. I never wanted to be associated 0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:23.120 with Will of Fortune, but I went through the complete 0:07:23.760 --> 0:07:28.680 process to become a contestant on Wheel of Fortune without 0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:31.120 telling them. I was doing it for a radio station, 0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:34.560 and I made it all the way through because they 0:07:34.560 --> 0:07:38.120 were trying to get younger people. Apparently their demo was 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:40.920 somewhere in the low to mid sixty year olds, and 0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:42.920 they were trying to freshen up the show and get 0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:45.720 more young contestants. And they were like, you're just what 0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:48.640 we're looking for. You play the game well, and you're 0:07:49.160 --> 0:07:52.640 youthful and you're exuberant. And then I told him what 0:07:52.680 --> 0:07:54.160 I did for a living, and I had to tell 0:07:54.240 --> 0:07:57.280 him who my wife was, and I was declined the 0:07:57.320 --> 0:08:01.080 opportunity to be on Wheel of Fortune because of my wife. 0:08:02.520 --> 0:08:05.480 My wife was a soap opera writer. She worked for 0:08:05.640 --> 0:08:11.040 Procter and Gamble and as such, PNG would exclude me 0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:15.840 from being on Wheel of Fortune because Wheel at that 0:08:15.880 --> 0:08:18.400 time was getting about three million dollars a year in 0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:24.760 contestant prizes from Procter and Gamble. So UH didn't make 0:08:24.800 --> 0:08:26.840 it through the Jeopardy trials. I'm not trying to be 0:08:26.920 --> 0:08:33.199 better and I got scotched from the from the Wheel 0:08:33.240 --> 0:08:35.120 of Fortune trial, so I never got to meet Patt 0:08:35.160 --> 0:08:38.800 and Vannah. But I want to know from you, is 0:08:38.880 --> 0:08:42.880 there is there a game show that you think is 0:08:42.920 --> 0:08:46.880 the greatest game show in the world ever in the 0:08:46.960 --> 0:08:49.400 history of the world. Eight four four nine b u 0:08:49.480 --> 0:08:53.640 c k eight four four buck. One of my crazy 0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:57.280 dreams is for us to actually skip some of the 0:08:57.320 --> 0:09:00.000 presidential debates. I know we have a lot of president 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:04.479 ential debates, and I believe once the parties choose their candidates, 0:09:05.240 --> 0:09:08.280 once we know who the Democrats and the Republicans and 0:09:08.320 --> 0:09:12.320 the Green Party and the Libertarian Party, once they pick 0:09:12.400 --> 0:09:18.400 their candidates, I think the three biggest teams should face 0:09:18.480 --> 0:09:22.480 off in presidential Jeopardy you know. The categories would be 0:09:22.559 --> 0:09:27.920 like domestic issues, economy, world leaders, all that stuff, and 0:09:28.080 --> 0:09:30.760 round one would be the vice president's Round two Double 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:34.560 Jeopardy would be the presidential candidates, and the final Jeopardy 0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:39.800 competition would be both guys working together or men and women. 0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:44.400 So it's it's kind of a bizarre dream, I know, 0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:48.079 but at the at the place we are today, with 0:09:48.120 --> 0:09:53.000 the kind of attitude and approach that politicians are taking 0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:57.800 to elections today, I think turning the at least one 0:09:58.040 --> 0:10:01.920 of the debate nights into a game show face off. 0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:05.080 We get to see how smart these guys are men 0:10:05.120 --> 0:10:08.040 and women. We'd get to see how well they work together. 0:10:08.400 --> 0:10:12.040 We get to see them in competitive situations, which we 0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:15.920 don't get to see now, we really don't. The debates 0:10:15.920 --> 0:10:19.920 are very civil. So I would be all for Jeopardy. 0:10:19.960 --> 0:10:22.360 And once again, my vote for the greatest game show 0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:24.880 ever in the history of the world goes to the 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:30.160 people who are fans of Jeopardy, and I'm sure I'm 0:10:30.160 --> 0:10:35.600 sure most of you smart people agree with me. Right. Also, 0:10:35.679 --> 0:10:38.439 coming up today the next block, we're going to get 0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:42.560 into the latest on the texts between Struck and Page 0:10:42.559 --> 0:10:45.360 and some of the other texts across the FBI platform. 0:10:45.760 --> 0:10:48.160 We're gonna talk a little bit about Monday nights pending 0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:52.320 Supreme Court justice announcement. I kind of thought the President 0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:54.120 was going to leak it last night when he was 0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:59.040 in Montana. We'll talk about the trade war, and I'm 0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:01.880 using air quotes there. I don't know if you're using 0:11:01.920 --> 0:11:04.920 the same thing, but we will talk about the trade war, 0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:10.800 which allegedly began tonight or last night at midnight. Uh. 0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:14.600 We've seen a little bit of wobble from some of 0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:18.720 our European friends, specifically Germany, so we'll try talk about 0:11:18.720 --> 0:11:22.679 trade tensions. Is there a trade war? The economy had 0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:25.880 a good day today. We'll talk about that jobs report 0:11:25.920 --> 0:11:29.679 as well. It's a very good sign and the market 0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:32.319 was up over a hundred thirty points today in the 0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:36.840 face of the trade war. Air quotes right there. So 0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:40.200 there's a lot of my plate today as well as 0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:44.520 my curious fascination with game shows. And I'd like to 0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:47.880 know what yours are. You can do it online on 0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:51.640 Twitter to me, or you can do it on the phone. 0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:55.800 Eight four four d b U c K eight four 0:11:55.600 --> 0:11:59.760 four hundred buck Mike Opelka in for my Buddy Bucks 0:11:59.800 --> 0:12:15.840 at Exton on the Buck Sexton Show.

We got short changed. 0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:53.360 Enough about Mike Fetching though, we'll we'll get to that later. 0:12:54.080 --> 0:12:58.160 I'm I'm reading today on the Hill a story that 0:12:58.559 --> 0:13:04.040 John Solomon post it that was just just unbelievable. They 0:13:04.040 --> 0:13:10.160 are more texts from the Struck page love texts across 0:13:10.240 --> 0:13:16.840 the FBI platform. More texts were released from congressional investigators, 0:13:17.520 --> 0:13:21.000 and uh, some of these are leaked actually not completely 0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:24.320 released yet. But I want to get into this because 0:13:24.360 --> 0:13:27.160 I get I get really twisted about this, and I 0:13:27.240 --> 0:13:30.640 wonder when are we going to get complete honesty and openness. 0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:35.280 So joining me to discuss is my friend attorney and 0:13:35.440 --> 0:13:39.480 author Dr Wendy Patrick.

Hello my friend, how are you good? 0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:51.960 Always a pleasure, Mike. Now, Wendy, I want to get 0:13:51.960 --> 0:13:55.080 into the struck page email thing, but you have to 0:13:55.160 --> 0:14:00.839 answer Tonight's Friday frivolous question greatest game show ever is?

I hate 0:14:06.080 --> 0:14:08.000 to say, Mike, but I'm willing to bet you remember 0:14:08.040 --> 0:14:11.040 that show too. Well, it's still on. They got Drew 0:14:11.120 --> 0:14:15.120 Carey there now. Oh you're kidding me. God, you know 0:14:15.160 --> 0:14:18.320 what we knew what all the grocery items cost when 0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:20.880 we were way too young to ever go shopping. Isn't 0:14:20.880 --> 0:14:24.280 that something? Yeah? It is? And I love me the 0:14:24.360 --> 0:14:28.320 prices right. And I've wandered around the CBS studios in 0:14:28.400 --> 0:14:32.840 Television City when they weren't shooting it and uh, nobody 0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:35.240 was around, so we spun the wheel, you know that 0:14:35.720 --> 0:14:39.680 showcase showdown wheel of course, of course, like a bunch 0:14:39.680 --> 0:14:42.080 of idiots and then I think security heard it and 0:14:42.120 --> 0:14:43.800 came over and go, hey, what are you kids doing? 0:14:44.000 --> 0:14:46.600 Get out of here? All right, let's talk like what 0:14:46.720 --> 0:14:49.440 I remember about that show is I have never seen 0:14:49.480 --> 0:14:52.720 people more excited when their names were called when they 0:14:52.760 --> 0:14:54.560 go Remember when they would pay in the audience and 0:14:54.640 --> 0:14:56.640 somebody's name would call, you would think they won the 0:14:56.720 --> 0:14:59.320 lottery just to have an opportunity to come down and 0:14:59.360 --> 0:15:02.920 guess the value with grocery items. Incredible show it was, 0:15:03.160 --> 0:15:05.880 and the simplest shows are the best. I vote for 0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:11.440 Jeopardy because I'm in a Jeopardy death battle every single day, 0:15:11.560 --> 0:15:15.400 and that's it's just my guilty pleasure on television. But 0:15:15.560 --> 0:15:18.760 we'll we'll save this argument for another day. I want 0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:22.320 to talk about this. Hurry the f up. The new 0:15:22.480 --> 0:15:27.000 emails and texts from Struck to Page and vice versa. 0:15:27.800 --> 0:15:31.240 Are these going to have any effect on any of 0:15:31.320 --> 0:15:35.440 the investigations currently going on, any of the Mueller stuff, 0:15:35.920 --> 0:15:40.200 any of the House investigation, the congressional hearings on this. 0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:43.440 You know, it's a different topic, it's a different issue, 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:46.240 but it's hard to believe somebody won't find some argument 0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:49.040 that there is some relevance and the reason is you know, 0:15:49.120 --> 0:15:51.680 we've been having a drip of emails coming out. This 0:15:51.760 --> 0:15:54.640 is just the latest batch. The obvious question is why 0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:56.960 didn't these come out earlier? But I gotta tell you 0:15:57.000 --> 0:16:01.160 they're actually could be valid reasons that whoever was seeking 0:16:01.240 --> 0:16:05.000 the emails didn't find these, or somebody didn't disclose them, 0:16:05.120 --> 0:16:07.240 or it just takes a long time sometimes to do 0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:09.840 this type of forensics. But is it relevant to what 0:16:09.960 --> 0:16:13.360 Mueller is focused on? Remember, it's hard. We've gotten so 0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:17.920 far off track, arguably from the original mandate to investigate 0:16:17.960 --> 0:16:20.920 whether there was any collusion, coordination, whatever you want to 0:16:20.960 --> 0:16:23.800 call it, between the Chump campaign and the Russians, that 0:16:23.960 --> 0:16:28.400 almost everything has purported relevance because the investigation seems to 0:16:28.440 --> 0:16:32.040 have broadened, And that's one of the reasons that many 0:16:32.080 --> 0:16:35.480 Americans are saying, hey, let's wrap this up. It's gotten 0:16:35.520 --> 0:16:38.360 way too broad. But it's also gotten broad enough to 0:16:38.400 --> 0:16:43.760 make an email exchange like this arguably relevant and what 0:16:43.840 --> 0:16:48.240 Wendy Patrick is talking about. In this email exchange, there 0:16:48.280 --> 0:16:55.040 are calls from from Struck to his then lover, reported lover, 0:16:55.840 --> 0:16:59.720 and to other agents to hurry the f up with 0:16:59.800 --> 0:17:03.880 their investigation, and one of the quotes in according to 0:17:03.920 --> 0:17:10.159 this story on the Hill from September, shortly before the election. Quote, 0:17:10.200 --> 0:17:13.320 at a minimum, this letter, the letter provides us a 0:17:13.480 --> 0:17:19.000 pretext to interview, and that pretexts a nice excuse, I 0:17:19.040 --> 0:17:25.000 guess to push the fighter warrant a little bit harder. 0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:31.840 This is this It feels like manipulation. Well that's that's 0:17:31.840 --> 0:17:35.360 exactly what the story is about. And it's also showing 0:17:35.520 --> 0:17:38.560 you know, that gave the ability, arguably gave the FBI 0:17:38.680 --> 0:17:41.320 the ability to use some of its power to monitor 0:17:41.440 --> 0:17:44.760 Carter Page. So now that's being tied to the Fighter 0:17:44.840 --> 0:17:48.160 want and many people that do understand that a lot 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:51.919 came from that warrant in the subsequent surveillance that is 0:17:52.400 --> 0:17:54.879 highly questionable, and that's part of the reason the FBI 0:17:54.920 --> 0:17:57.600 has really been under fire for this. So yeah, a 0:17:57.760 --> 0:18:01.240 story like this just provides even more disturbing details that 0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:04.439 people are looking at in retrospect thinking does this have 0:18:04.600 --> 0:18:07.679 more relevance than people should be giving it to the 0:18:08.040 --> 0:18:11.240 underlying Muller probe. It's a different issue, but you know, 0:18:11.280 --> 0:18:14.440 it is inflammatory, and I think that's why this story 0:18:14.600 --> 0:18:17.840 is getting the attention that it is today, regardless of 0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:22.280 whether we're actually able to tie it into the investigation. Wendy, 0:18:22.320 --> 0:18:24.439 I know if there's a whole lot more to watch. 0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:26.879 We're up against the hard break and you've got a 0:18:26.920 --> 0:18:30.320 Friday coming up, so I can't hold you any longer. 0:18:31.720 --> 0:18:35.120 I appreciate you weighing in on this, Wendy Patrick. She's 0:18:35.119 --> 0:18:38.440 a Price is Right lover and a really smart attorney 0:18:38.440 --> 0:18:41.280 and author. Thank you, my friend Michael Pelka in for 0:18:41.400 --> 0:18:45.000 Buck Sexton. What's your favorite game show? What's the greatest 0:18:45.000 --> 0:19:01.120 game show of all time?

Michael Pelka sitting in for my friend Buck Sexton. 0:19:10.200 --> 0:19:12.919 Buck and I go way back to the early early 0:19:13.040 --> 0:19:18.040 early early days of the Blaze, and we were cohorts, 0:19:18.080 --> 0:19:21.240 partners in crime, if you will, worked both on the 0:19:21.400 --> 0:19:24.720 editorial side and on the radio side, and Buck a 0:19:24.760 --> 0:19:29.560 little bit on the TV side. I was not telegenic. 0:19:29.640 --> 0:19:33.720 Apparently they kept me off in the no Pictures section. 0:19:34.080 --> 0:19:35.679 But I spent six and a half years of my 0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:38.480 life at the Blaze, wrote more than three thousand pieces 0:19:38.520 --> 0:19:42.280 and hundreds of hours of radio and it was one 0:19:42.280 --> 0:19:45.639 of the greatest times in my life. And I wish 0:19:45.760 --> 0:19:50.520 the Blaze were as it was in T and thirteen. 0:19:50.640 --> 0:19:54.120 That's just a little bit of reminiscent on this Friday 0:19:54.160 --> 0:19:58.520 after Independence Day, The Friday frivolous question of the day 0:19:58.720 --> 0:20:03.560 is one that has driven buy me.

One of 0:20:41.560 --> 0:20:43.760 the dumb things we used to say on the radio 0:20:43.800 --> 0:20:46.159 when I did a Blaze radio show, but I still 0:20:46.200 --> 0:20:49.879 repeat it to others. So yeah, I miss you like 0:20:49.920 --> 0:20:52.359 a front tooth as well. Do you have a favorite 0:20:52.400 --> 0:20:56.959 game show, Jody, Yes, let's make a deal. I always 0:20:57.040 --> 0:21:00.639 thought that was so much fun, the original or do 0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:04.440 you like the new one with is it Wayne Brady. 0:21:05.080 --> 0:21:08.480 Okay show confession time. I have not had a TV 0:21:08.680 --> 0:21:12.880 for almost seven years, so I haven't seen the Wayne Brady. 0:21:12.960 --> 0:21:17.480 I'm talking to old school. We're talking Monty Hall and 0:21:17.800 --> 0:21:22.280 Jay bringing the tray down the aisle. Yes, and the 0:21:22.440 --> 0:21:27.000 goat behind door number three. Oh yeah, Well, the Zonke 0:21:27.240 --> 0:21:30.000 Prize would move around and for those who are not 0:21:30.160 --> 0:21:32.840 aware of what Jody's talking about, the original Let's Make 0:21:32.880 --> 0:21:36.960 a Deal had people dressing like absolute idiots and crazy 0:21:37.119 --> 0:21:42.200 costumes with pun themed outfits, and they would get selected 0:21:42.240 --> 0:21:45.719 by the show's producers to sit in the contestants section 0:21:45.800 --> 0:21:49.680 down in the very front of the studio. And then 0:21:49.760 --> 0:21:52.119 Monty Hall, one of the great game show hosts of 0:21:52.160 --> 0:21:55.359 all time, would wander through the audience and if someone 0:21:55.440 --> 0:21:58.120 caught his eye, he would say, you stand up. If 0:21:58.160 --> 0:22:00.280 you have a hard boiled egg in your back, I'll 0:22:00.280 --> 0:22:04.120 give you a hundred dollars for it. Just ridiculous stuff, 0:22:04.640 --> 0:22:07.720 but they would they would make deals for what's in 0:22:07.760 --> 0:22:11.520 the box, what's behind the curtain? And then door number one, two, 0:22:11.560 --> 0:22:14.720 and three pointed to by Carol Merrill. She was the 0:22:14.800 --> 0:22:18.359 van of White of the sixties and seventies. Yeah, I 0:22:18.440 --> 0:22:20.600 watched a lot of TV. It was a great show 0:22:20.640 --> 0:22:24.960 because you never knew what was going to happen. And 0:22:24.960 --> 0:22:28.159 in believe one of those doors had a donkey behind it. 0:22:28.640 --> 0:22:32.480 And I'm a little younger than you, Mike, not tons 0:22:32.480 --> 0:22:35.119 and tons, but a little younger than you. And I 0:22:35.160 --> 0:22:38.119 don't know why as a kid, having the door reveal 0:22:38.200 --> 0:22:40.800 a donkey, it just made me giggle. Tell I almost 0:22:40.840 --> 0:22:45.560 wet my camps. Well you we always we always at home, 0:22:45.680 --> 0:22:48.320 my brothers and I and sisters. Brothers and sisters and 0:22:48.359 --> 0:22:51.240 I would watch Let's Make a Deal, and we would 0:22:51.320 --> 0:22:56.080 root for the person to get too greedy and get 0:22:56.600 --> 0:23:00.240 a ridiculous zonk price. They were called zonc probably is 0:23:00.920 --> 0:23:04.560 and uh, you just hope because it's the chadenfreude in 0:23:04.600 --> 0:23:07.919 all of us, that ability to take pleasure in the 0:23:08.040 --> 0:23:12.399 displeasure or problems of other people. The Germans gave us 0:23:12.440 --> 0:23:16.560 that word schadenfreude. But yeah, we used to watch that endlessly, 0:23:16.760 --> 0:23:20.320 and especially the last two minutes as the credits were rolling, 0:23:20.320 --> 0:23:22.760 because Monty had pockets full of cash and he would 0:23:22.760 --> 0:23:26.760 wander the audience. Now I'm gonna you do you Your 0:23:26.800 --> 0:23:29.960 TV has been gone for seven years, Jody, you've been 0:23:30.119 --> 0:23:35.320 television free for seven years? Was was um the Deal 0:23:35.400 --> 0:23:41.160 or No Deal show on during your before your TV absence? Yes? 0:23:41.320 --> 0:23:47.240 It was okay and you remember it? Oh yeah? Uh? 0:23:47.560 --> 0:23:54.560 The the host what's his name from Think? Yes, it 0:23:54.760 --> 0:23:58.160 was Howie Mandel was convinced to do that show by 0:23:58.200 --> 0:24:00.800 the guy who came up with the concept. The guy 0:24:00.880 --> 0:24:03.600 talked to him over a sandwich at a Los Angeles 0:24:03.640 --> 0:24:07.040 Delhi and he brought out a briefcase and explained it 0:24:07.119 --> 0:24:09.720 and how he was in from day one and how 0:24:09.760 --> 0:24:12.120 he just three weeks ago has been on the interview 0:24:12.200 --> 0:24:16.120 circuit telling the story that he's thinking about bringing it back, 0:24:16.600 --> 0:24:27.120 and um, well you're gonna have to get a TV then, yeah, okay, 0:24:27.800 --> 0:24:31.719 I'll think about that really really hard. Now. The beauty 0:24:31.760 --> 0:24:37.359 of Deal or No Deal it took no skill, It 0:24:37.440 --> 0:24:41.639 took zero intelligence. It was just random. But do you 0:24:41.800 --> 0:24:46.359 know which of all those women who had the little 0:24:46.440 --> 0:24:53.160 luggage up there? Do you know which famous person who 0:24:53.280 --> 0:24:56.480 also appeared as an actress on one of Stupor Gere's 0:24:56.520 --> 0:25:02.040 favorite TV shows? Do you know which famous person also 0:25:02.160 --> 0:25:04.960 appeared as one of the luggage ladies on Deal or 0:25:04.960 --> 0:25:16.520 No Deal? No? I don't. Meghan Marko really. Yeah, she 0:25:16.880 --> 0:25:19.520 in in the early days of her TV career, how 0:25:19.560 --> 0:25:21.720 he was telling this story, Like I said, just he's 0:25:21.760 --> 0:25:24.920 out on the uh out on the interview trail right now, 0:25:25.520 --> 0:25:29.080 pitching what he's planning on doing. And I was totally stunned. 0:25:29.119 --> 0:25:31.320 And I'm not a guy who likes the royal family. 0:25:31.359 --> 0:25:33.240 I think it's a gigantic joke and I think it's 0:25:33.240 --> 0:25:38.520 a waste of time, etcetera, etcetera. But Meghan Markel the princess. 0:25:38.520 --> 0:25:40.679 Now I guess she's a princess or a duchess or 0:25:40.760 --> 0:25:44.520 something or whatever the heck she is. Yeah, well, absolutely, 0:25:44.560 --> 0:25:46.920 we fought that war. We made that decision two d 0:25:47.080 --> 0:25:50.040 forty two years ago. No thank you. But I I 0:25:50.160 --> 0:25:55.119 just not just in in seventeen three, but again in 0:25:55.320 --> 0:26:02.119 eighteen Well I early remember that time. I'm old, you know, 0:26:02.200 --> 0:26:05.480 and then my memory goes fuzzy after a couple of 0:26:05.520 --> 0:26:08.919 those centuries, but I do. I just thought it was 0:26:09.000 --> 0:26:13.080 fascinating that Megan Markle has been in the public eye 0:26:13.240 --> 0:26:16.280
