I 6 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:18,799 Speaker 1: was happy at the news when I heard a partnership 7 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 1: with Anheuser Busch and with our friend Dana White, you know, 8 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:26,599 Speaker 1: of course, with the UFC, the world's premiere mixed martial 9 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 1: arts organization. If you listen to this show, if you 10 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: have listened to this show for any length of time, 11 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,559 Speaker 1: you know it's a passion personal passion of mine, and 12 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 1: that they are now in a partnership together. 13 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 2: Now. 14 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 1: I looked at this at first and I said, okay, 15 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,520 Speaker 1: I think we got on our apology, you know, because 16 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 1: it was so frustrating to me. In all my life 17 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 1: that I've been on radio thirty some odd years, all 18 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 1: the years I've been at Fox, I've now started my 19 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: twenty eighth year, I've never been part of this cancel, 20 00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: call for firing, boycott silence Voice movement ever. And when 21 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: this issue came up with Anheuser Bush and Bud Light, 22 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: and I saw people's reaction to it. 23 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 2: I understood it. 24 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: However, my first thought went to and I expressed it 25 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: at the time on the air many times, went to uh, uh, 26 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: you know, this boycott has really taken hold. 27 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 2: Uh oh, those those guys that drive. 28 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: The trucks and have paid a lot of money for 29 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 1: these routes all around the country because Budweiser bud Light 30 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: at the time had been the number one beer, best 31 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: selling beer in America. I said, these guys are going 32 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 1: to be the ones that ultimately get hurt here. And 33 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: then I said, oh, no, when you go into the 34 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 1: breweries and the factories and the guys that work on 35 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 1: the loading docks, this this is going to have a 36 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: ripple effect and it's it's and maybe it'll be a 37 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: couple of the people involved. They never should have got 38 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: involved in politics in my mind period. However, I just 39 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: worried about the hard working men and women for Anheuser 40 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: Bush because those are career, high paying jobs for people, 41 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: and people have mortgages to pay, they have rent to pay, 42 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: they have car payments, they have kids in college, and 43 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, this is not going to work out 44 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: well for them. And I thought it was from a 45 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: pr standpoint handled horribly by Anheuser Busch. 46 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 2: So when I saw this. 47 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: That they have now partnered with somebody that I just 48 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: admire from afar. We've talked a number of times. We're 49 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: not great friends. I'd love to be great friends with 50 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 1: Dana White, but I've just admire him. He's a brilliant businessman, 51 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 1: and I like the fact that he's take no holds, 52 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: you know, no holds barred, speak. 53 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 2: From the heart. 54 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: I love that about him and I love if you remember, 55 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: during COVID, he came up with a way that UFC 56 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: fighters could keep fighting on an island, and I'm like, 57 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: brilliant idea. 58 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 2: Thank God, somebody's thinking out of the box. 59 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:55,519 Speaker 1: So anyway, there's an announcement here that Dana White and 60 00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: the UFC, the world's premiere Mixed mart Mixed Martial arts organsation, 61 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 1: together with Anheuser Busch have created a partnership. Now, if 62 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 1: you know you're going into business with Dana White, you'd 63 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 1: have to be pretty dumb and ignorant if you don't 64 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: know who you're going into business with. And Dana White 65 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 1: is right there in the wheelhouse of who I would 66 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 1: say prior to this controversy with bud light that appeals 67 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 1: directly to the base of the people that were purchasing 68 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: Anheuser Busch products. Now, a lot of the drivers lost 69 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: their jobs and a lot of the guys in the 70 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: factory lost their jobs. I know a few of these 71 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: marketing dimwitz lost their jobs, as they should have. But 72 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: this to me might be a step that hopefully those 73 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: career jobs can come back if people see this as 74 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: Anheuser Busch saying making a loud statement here with this partnership. 75 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 2: So that's my hope. 76 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: I never wanted to see people get punished for something 77 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: they were not responsible for, and that ended up happening anyway, 78 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: the great Dana White as well as now, sir, how 79 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: are you? 80 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 3: I'm good? 81 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 2: You know, I know, I know how this game is played. 82 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 2: I've been doing this too long. 83 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: And there are people that are going to come out 84 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: of the box right away and say, oh, Dana did 85 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 1: this for blank And I'm sure you're ready for it. 86 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 2: You're too smart not to be ready for it. 87 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: But when I had an opportunity to speak to you yesterday, 88 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 1: you had some great answers, and I'd like it explain 89 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: it to this audience. 90 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,039 Speaker 4: Well, I would assume if people say Dana did this 91 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 4: for blank, the blank would be money. I'm assuming that's 92 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 4: what they would say. 93 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 2: I think you've got enough money for four thousand lifetimes. 94 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 2: Just for the record, Yeah, the truth. 95 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 4: Of the matter is this was the decision that I made. 96 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 4: That was the furthest thing about money. You know, I 97 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 4: felt like as we started to look into, you know, 98 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 4: who our next beer sponsor would be, I'm actually very 99 00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 4: aligned with Anheuser Busch, and I think you held it 100 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 4: pretty well already. But you know, these guys employ sixty 101 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 4: five thousand Americans. They are you know, thousands of vets 102 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 4: they employ, They spend over seven hundred million dollars a 103 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 4: year with US farmers, you know, buying their crops for 104 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 4: their product. And there's many many other reasons that I 105 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 4: did this. But you know, we're going to do an 106 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 4: election cycle. 107 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 5: Uh yeah. 108 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: By the way, I wonder if I wonder if Dana 109 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 1: White's going to be outspoken during the election cycle. 110 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 4: Well, well, just where I shit personally with with my 111 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 4: core values, and I feel like the core values of 112 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 4: the UFC and who are even though we're a global 113 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 4: sport and you know, we have fighters from all over 114 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 4: the world, and this is this is an American company, and 115 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 4: I love this country, and uh, this is this is 116 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 4: more about me being aligned with somebody who was a 117 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 4: sponsor of the UFC and and somebody that I'm going 118 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 4: to work with every day. And and you know, the 119 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 4: other thing about that that I love about Anheuser Busch 120 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 4: is the amount of money that that they spend. They 121 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 4: have a program called Souls of Honor. Now I'm very 122 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 4: big with military and law enforcement, so you know, this 123 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 4: thing is a program for fallen heroes, whether they're military, police, 124 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 4: first responders, and these guys have raised, like, you know, 125 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 4: forty five million dollars for scoptips for their kids and 126 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 4: wives or whatever may be of of fallen heroes. And 127 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 4: you know, as you just keep going deeper and deeper 128 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 4: into who Anheuser Busch is as a company, I am 129 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 4: definitely very aligned with them. 130 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: You know, you're adding something called context and texture and 131 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: and oftentimes, you know, people have these emotional reactions at moments, 132 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: and and by the way, I understood how how people felt, 133 00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: and they were calling into the show left and right 134 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: and trying to urge me to join the boycott, and 135 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,919 Speaker 1: I kept explaining I've never done that my whole career, 136 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,799 Speaker 1: and I'm not going to start now. And I said, 137 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: and my fear at the time, and it ended up 138 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:15,679 Speaker 1: being true is the hard working forgotten man and woman 139 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 1: that worked for Anheuser Bush. They were ultimately going to 140 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 1: pay the price here if this continue to go on 141 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: for a period of time, which it has. And that's 142 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 1: why I think them partnering with you is making a 143 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: very loud statement to me. 144 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, whatever they went through as a business, you know, listen, 145 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 4: we all, you know, do certain things in our business 146 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 4: that you know, you know, fans or whatever you want 147 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 4: to call them, might not love. But if you look 148 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 4: at like for me going into this deal, and I'm 149 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 4: looking at different beer companies to be in business with 150 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 4: and be aligned with, Listen, I'm gonna I'm going to 151 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 4: point in my career where, you know, things aren't necessarily 152 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 4: about money anymore. Obviously, money is important, you. 153 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: Know, Uh, Dana, Rana, you have you have enough money 154 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: for four thousand lifetimes. 155 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 2: I know it's not about money for you. 156 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, It's just you get to a point where it's 157 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 4: where it's about it's about more than money. And uh, 158 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 4: this one was a big deal. To me, you know, 159 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 4: And uh, yeah, it wasn't. It wasn't a tough decision 160 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 4: at all. And everybody who was involved in this thing, 161 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 4: on every side, you know, our old sponsor, our new sponsor, 162 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 4: and whoever else knows it was absolutely positively about money. 163 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 4: This is about This is more about core values to 164 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 4: me than anything else. 165 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: And I want to be very clear about something. And 166 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: maybe you don't want me sharing this. I I hope 167 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 1: I'm not divulging something that you don't want me to share. 168 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 1: But there were no shortage of beer companies that wanted 169 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: to partner with you in the UFC. 170 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, this this wasn't. This wasn't It really wasn't about that. 171 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 4: It wasn't about that. For me, it was about way 172 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 4: more than just you know who, who's gonna who's gonna 173 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 4: pay us the most? And you know, we were in 174 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 4: business for Nannheyser, but they were actually the first beer 175 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 4: company you know that that we did a big deal with, 176 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 4: and they put us on the map. We had a 177 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 4: great relationship then we have a great relationship now and 178 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 4: and and uh, I'm excited and looking forward to this 179 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 4: and and and I think that we're going to do 180 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 4: a lot of cool things together around, you know, based 181 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 4: around all the things that you and I have just 182 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 4: talked about on the phone. 183 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: So my hope out of this is what I've been saying. 184 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 1: My hope out of this is that people that had 185 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: legitimate concerns about them bringing politics into it. I don't 186 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,199 Speaker 1: want to, I don't even want to talk about the controversy. 187 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 1: But I thought the mistake was why they Why are 188 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: they jumping into the political arena. 189 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 2: They produce great beer. 190 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: They're an American beer company that Americans like, and and 191 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: all the other things associated with it, the causes that 192 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: they support, for example, the career jobs that are created 193 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: that have been lost. But my hope is that those 194 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: jobs come back. My hope is is that people can 195 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,320 Speaker 1: get past it and give them only one I'd say, 196 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: only one more chance. You know, if they go down 197 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 1: that road again, I can't stop stupid. 198 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 2: But I don't think they will. 199 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: I think I think partnering with you is pretty clear 200 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: they're not going down that road again. 201 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 4: Yeah. I can't speak on behalf of what the company thinks, 202 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 4: or what they did, or how they're running their business. 203 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 4: I can tell you this. You know, obviously we've we've 204 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 4: been in talks for a while here, and we've had many, 205 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 4: many meetings with them, and you know their CEO. I 206 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 4: actually like him a lot. He's a former marine. And listen, 207 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 4: all I can really speak to is myself and the UFC. 208 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 4: We're very aligned and uh, I couldn't be happier going 209 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 4: into this U end of this deal with these guys. 210 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 4: I look forward to the next six years. 211 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: All right, quick break right back. We'll continue more with 212 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 1: Dana White eight hundred and ninety four one. Sean, if 213 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: you want to be a part of the program as 214 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 1: we continue. 215 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 2: All right, we continue. 216 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 1: With our friend Dana White, UFC, the world's premiere mixed 217 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: martial arts organization, and his announced partnership with Anheuser Busch, 218 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: which I think is a very loud statement by Anheuser Busch. 219 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: All right, so everybody in the world wants to know 220 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: what the hell happened with Elon Musk and Zuckerberg. What 221 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: happened because you announced that you had spoken to both 222 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: of them they were willing to jump in the octagon 223 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 1: and nothing came of it. 224 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 2: What happened? 225 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, Listen, I was talking to both of them back 226 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 4: and forth, and you know, Elon Musk is actually trained 227 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 4: in judo when he was growing up, and Zuckerberg is 228 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 4: obsessed with this right now. He's been he's been training 229 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 4: at MMA, and you know, listen, at the end of 230 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 4: the day, these guys are two multi billionaires. 231 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 2: And you know that's what made it so fun. I mean, 232 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 2: it was like three. 233 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 4: I think talk of fighting is actually more fun than 234 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 4: actually doing it. So I think it's probably a good 235 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 4: idea that it didn't happen. But listen, you know, I'm 236 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 4: a fight promoter, and if these guys wanted to talk 237 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 4: about fighting, I'm their guy. 238 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: Now, question is it dead completely or is there a 239 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: chance that this happens? 240 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 4: I would say more than likely it does not happen. 241 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: No, Okay, So for twelve years now, I've been training 242 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 1: in mixed martial arts. I do it about an hour 243 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: and a half a day, four or five days a week. 244 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: I am fascinated by any single person that gets into 245 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: that octagon. 246 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 2: I am. 247 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: I just have deep respect for them. I'm like, ooh, 248 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: you know, you have to show a lot of courage 249 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: to getting that octagon. 250 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 4: I could not agree with you more. You know, our 251 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 4: fighters are not only no incredible athletes, they have to 252 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 4: train in all the different martial arts, but in you know, 253 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:58,199 Speaker 4: Cardiovasca away training and yah to go into the octagon 254 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 4: in face off against somebody that's worked as long and 255 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 4: as hard as you are and has looked at as 256 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,199 Speaker 4: one of the best in the world and test yourself 257 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 4: in front of everybody on the planet on television. It 258 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 4: takes a special individual to do it. 259 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 2: It really does. 260 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: What I like about the fact that my training in 261 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: particular there's no rules. Is headbutting, is eye gouging, I mean, 262 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: is it is dirty situational street fighting. And basically I'm 263 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: trained to try and win a fight in less than 264 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: thirty seconds, and not only win, but break blind, destroy 265 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 1: and do whatever I have to do if it is 266 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: a real life situation. And you know, we have for example, 267 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: my sense i keeps it we call keep it real 268 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: day and for the entire for an entire hour and 269 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: a half, he's just throwing moves on me left, right 270 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 1: and sideways and see what my reaction is. And it 271 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 1: keeps you on your toes, it keeps you mentally strong 272 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 1: and tough. It's just a great discipline. 273 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 4: One hundred percent, and it's one of the greatest things 274 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 4: that you could ever give your kids is to have 275 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 4: them train and mixed martial arts when there when they're 276 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 4: growing up. I mean when guys like you and I 277 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 4: grew up, you know, your parents put you in karate 278 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 4: or taekwondo. This is the new martial art that men, 279 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 4: women and children are taken all over the world. 280 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 2: Dana. 281 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: I'm hoping, praying for our friends that lost their jobs. 282 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: I want them to get their jobs back. I hope 283 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: people I believe in forgiveness. I'm a Christian that maybe 284 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: one more chance, and partnering with you to me sends 285 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: a very very strong message.

Thank you. 289 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 2: Eight hundred ninety four one. Sean. 290 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 1: If you want to be a part of the program, 291 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: I want to remind you about the International Fellowship of 292 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: Christians and Jews. We're all watching. You know this, this 293 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: horrific you know terror attack on October seventh, fourteen hundred. 294 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: You know people killed that day. We still have hundreds 295 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: of hostages and you know it's interesting Biblically speaking, if 296 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 1: you read Genesis, it says in the Bible that. 297 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 2: To bless those that bless Israel. 298 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: And people wonder, well, why are Christians the most supportive 299 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: of the state of Israel. Is because Christians, at least 300 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: my Christianity, has taught me that they've been God's chosen people. 301 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: Long story short, I won't get too deep into it, 302 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: but look, a lot of people are struggling. Our country's 303 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 1: in decline, but they are in desperate need. There is 304 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 1: this great group international fellowship of Christians and Jews, and 305 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: they are going out on the front lines. They're helping, 306 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: you know, elderly people that have been displaced, that have 307 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: no assistance, no help whatsoever. They're helping IDF soldiers on 308 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: the battlefield. They are helping young children. They are doing 309 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: so much good work. But you know, there's nothing that 310 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: they can do if it's not for your help, your generosity, 311 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: and your support. You see what they're living through. And 312 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: this is about to get worse, not better. But anyway, 313 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 1: when you lose all of these people, innocent men, women 314 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: and children, and a country that is in mourning but 315 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: also has to prepare now for a long protracted war, 316 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: probably Hamas worse than Isis. It's a battle between good 317 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: and evil and the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. 318 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 2: They're on the ground right now. 319 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: They're providing all the critical essentials, food, medicine, emergency supplies 320 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: for anybody that is in need. 321 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 2: Now. 322 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: If you can donate to this great charity, please go 323 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 1: to Hannity for Israel dot com.

You need a 346 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: personal security plan and I have had a concealed carrier 347 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 1: permit my entire life. I'm a big Second Amendment supporter. 348 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 1: I still am. That's never going to change. And however, 349 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 1: I've been so intrigued by the technology of Burner BYRNA. 350 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: It's a non lethal defense launcher. It looks like a gun, 351 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 1: fires like a gun. They have their mission for rifle 352 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 1: that they have just I just ordered four of them, 353 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 1: three for gifts for friends and one for myself. And 354 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: you have a capacity that. One of the great things 355 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: is it's legal in all fifty states, doesn't require a 356 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: permitter or background check, and if somebody breaks into your house, 357 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 1: I can hit a target forty feet away easily. And 358 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: what it does is it incapacitates any perpetrator that would 359 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: want to bring harm to you or your family. So 360 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: now you can have an answer, and it's not just 361 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,199 Speaker 1: the lethal option answer. And the idea that if you 362 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 1: have time, and you have a strategy, and you're prepared, 363 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: and you have both lethal and non lethal force and 364 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: choices before you, it is fantastic. I frankly think every 365 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 1: police department around the country needs to have burner launchers. 366 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 1: I mean, it is formidable power. It stops perpetrators, attackers 367 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: right in their tracks. It doesn't have the legal complexities 368 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,360 Speaker 1: that come with using lethal force, so having to take 369 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,199 Speaker 1: legal force. And that's why alongside my firearms, I have 370 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 1: several burner launchers and I can't wait to get my 371 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,959 Speaker 1: mission for delivered. When I tried this out recently, just 372 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: loved it. It's phenomenal. Anyway, Berner go to their website. 373 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 1: Everything's made right here, locally manufactured in Fort Wayne, Indiana. 374 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: It's by RNA dot com slash Hannity, and they have videos. 375 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: The videos will show you how they incapacitate perpetrators and 376 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 1: it works by are in a dot com slash Hannity. 377 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 1: Because responsible defense is about making every life count, all 378 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:41,880 Speaker 1: right eight hundred and. 379 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 2: Ninety four one. 380 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 1: Sean, if you want to be a part of the program, 381 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: let's get to our busy phones Alabama. 382 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 2: Let's say how to Scott next Sean Hannity Show.

What's on your mind today? 387 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 6: Well, brother, I'm as I look historically at both this 388 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 6: administration and as well as our country's economies, I got 389 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 6: a question considering the higher risks that we're going to 390 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 6: have interruptions and the future interruptions and supply change across 391 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 6: the board, uh, you know, the higher risks that we're 392 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 6: going to have the need to reproduce uh. Some of 393 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 6: the supplies, materials, systems, and that are defense forces you know, 394 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 6: d O d are you know that will need potentially 395 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 6: to defend us as well as our allies. I asked 396 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 6: the question the current administration's focus on you know, the 397 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 6: the Green New Deal, there, the you know, the infrastructure support. 398 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 6: That is that not distracting away from what we need 399 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 6: in a wartime economy, meeting the means of self production, 400 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 6: the means to rapidly increase production to UH source materials 401 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:54,640 Speaker 6: to support, source supplies to produce those and turn them 402 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 6: up because you know, the bottom line is, we can 403 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 6: sign a bill into action to that, we can put 404 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 6: a bill, and we can actually a law published with 405 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 6: an NDA. It's funny, but it takes time to turn 406 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 6: that money into a product. 407 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 3: Wondering what's your thoughts on that? 408 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: I look, I'm scared to death about the economy for 409 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 1: most Americans. I don't know if you saw this, but 410 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 1: and I mentioned that last night on TV. I'll mentioned 411 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: it here. But economically, we have a credit card interest 412 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,479 Speaker 1: rates now as high as thirty percent, twenty eight percent 413 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: in other cases, I in my whole life, I thought 414 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 1: twenty one and a half percent, twenty two percent, twenty 415 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: three percent was the maximum I'd ever see. You might 416 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 1: be able to get a better deal from a loan 417 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: shark for crying out loud. So it's scary because then 418 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: you have sixty nearly two thirds of the population, over 419 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: sixty percent living paycheck to paycheck, and of that sixty percent, 420 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 1: some people can't make ends meet every month, and then 421 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 1: as a result they have to put some items, you know, 422 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 1: bare necessities. I'm not talking about luxuries on their credit 423 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: card just to make ends meet, and you're never going 424 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: to be able to pay off that high interest rate loan. 425 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,400 Speaker 1: It's just you're digging such a big hole. I don't 426 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 1: know how you get out of it. And then add 427 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: to that, Okay, people their biggest investment is their home. 428 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 1: And if you locked in at two point whatever percent 429 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 1: thirty year fixed rate mortgage, three point whatever percent, even 430 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,880 Speaker 1: four point whatever percent, now the average thirty year fixed 431 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: rate mortgage is over eight percent, and we can't afford it. 432 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,640 Speaker 1: And then you mentioned, you know, we should be independent, 433 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 1: and you know we were energy independent, but we're not 434 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 1: anymore thanks to Joe Biden's you know, radical climate alarmists, 435 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 1: religious cult, you know, policies. 436 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:35,880 Speaker 2: They're killing us. 437 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: And so I guess to really answer your question is, yeah, 438 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: we should be reconfiguring how we're looking at everything. The 439 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: first thing I would do with the immediate answer to 440 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: me is right there, it's a resource that we have 441 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,360 Speaker 1: an abundance of between oil, gas, and coal. We ought 442 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,640 Speaker 1: to mass produce all of it. We ought to be 443 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: at first energy and dependent, then move towards energy dominance 444 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:03,120 Speaker 1: and and start making a lot of extra money that 445 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,199 Speaker 1: we could be using to pay down our debt and 446 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 1: pay our own bills and build up our nation's defenses 447 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 1: in these very troubling times we live in. But they're 448 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: not they're never going to do any of that because 449 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: they're just you know, the hardened radical leftist ideologues. 450 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 2: And did they think that they're right? 451 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: They think the biggest existential threat to quote Joe Biden 452 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:28,439 Speaker 1: isn't even nuclear wars. He thinks it's climate change. And 453 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 1: he said it, and he doubled down on it through 454 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: a spokesperson recently. And I'm like, how stupid can this 455 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:33,399 Speaker 1: man be? 456 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 6: He's pretty stupid, yes, And I guess my concern is 457 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 6: what what have we learned from COVID? 458 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 3: We learned that critical. 459 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 6: Medical supplies, even the materials and manufactured metal supplies, were 460 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 6: not available to us and actually were being provided you 461 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 6: know by an opponent, you know, by our potential. 462 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 1: By by let's name them, mostly by China. That Yeah, 463 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: that's that makes us pretty stupid, doesn't it? 464 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 3: Yeah? 465 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,120 Speaker 6: I would have to agree. And I think here's all 466 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 6: the clothes with this. My parents' grandparents went through you know, 467 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 6: the you know, the Second World War career or the 468 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 6: Vietnam War. I watched as you know this country, and 469 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:12,160 Speaker 6: even in my youth I'm sixty today, even in my youth, 470 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 6: I can remember how our infrastructure, how the enterprise you know, 471 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 6: within the industry was able to meet their challenges. I 472 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 6: questioned our ability to do that today, So thank you 473 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 6: for the time. 474 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,199 Speaker 1: I question it too. And the only answer is to 475 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 1: get a new government. And the only way to make 476 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: that happen is to vote. And one of the ways 477 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: that Republicans can be more successful we should learn more. 478 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: Two weeks from today, they have the House of Delegates, 479 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 1: they have the Senate in Virginia up for election, and 480 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: I know Governor Younkin in Virginia has been working very 481 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 1: hard to help them have a majority. Right now, they 482 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: have a five seat majority in the House of Commons 483 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 1: and a four seat deficit in the Senate. And if 484 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: they're able to get a majority in both those houses, 485 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 1: well that means a lot. That means that you know, 486 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: his push for early voting, voting by mail, and overcoming 487 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: the resistance and reluctance conservatives Republicans have to this, that 488 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: should we should learn a lesson from that. So a 489 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 1: lot that we got to do here and having good 490 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: policies that people support anyway. Eight hundred and nine four 491 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: one Sean our number to be a part of the program. 492 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 1: Let's say hi to Tom and the Free State of Florida. 493 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 2: What's up, Tom?

And 517 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,400 Speaker 5: it took a long time before if you finally got interviewed, 518 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 5: and the guy who's like, no one's ever called me 519 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 5: and no one's ever talked to him. But my question 520 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:38,919 Speaker 5: is is why isn't anybody pursuing all these people the 521 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 5: Biden's have paid off. I mean, obviously they're throwing everything 522 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 5: but the kitchen sink a Trump and these trials, and 523 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 5: no one's going to interview the wife of the oblock 524 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 5: Arthur in Russia, which is she's accessible some of these 525 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 5: other people in China. 526 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 2: And Elena, yes, and Victor Chokin. 527 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 1: Well, first of all, Chokin has been interviewed a number 528 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 1: of times, and we play portions of that.

I'd love to talk about her 533 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,959 Speaker 1: dinner with Joe Biden at the Cafe Milano. I'd love 534 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: to know why she invested three and a half million 535 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 1: dollars with Hunter Biden. I'd like to know about the 536 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty million invested in their real estate 537 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: venture at Rosemont Senec. 538 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 2: I'd like to know all those answers.

Every year, 551 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: you know, when I'd be at the beach with my son. 552 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,919 Speaker 1: Some of our best memories of playing beach football, and 553 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 1: I was the stationary quarterback and I didn't have to 554 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: run on the beach as much as everyone else, and 555 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 1: I loved it anyway. 556 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 2: Eight hundred nine four one sewn. 557 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 1: Thank you, Tom, appreciate the call, all right, quick break 558 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: right back to our phones.

Jim in Pennsylvania. What's 566 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:51,719 Speaker 2: going on? Jim? How are you? 567 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 3: Hi? Sean? How are you? I'm good to anyone watching 568 00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 3: Biden stumble through his teleprompter speeches knows they're not his words. 569 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 3: It's obvious he's not making decisions. He's not running the country. 570 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 3: My question to you is who is I think that 571 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 3: I think the American people have a right to know 572 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 3: who's running the country. Is it Obama and his cronies 573 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 3: getting a third term? Is it James Clapper and John 574 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 3: Brennan and Ben Rhoades and Valerie Jarrett and John Kerry? 575 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 3: I mean these people people still running the country because 576 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:27,959 Speaker 3: it's obviously not Biden. 577 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 1: Look, it's obviously not Joe. I think it's a combination 578 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: of many people around him, including some of the people 579 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 1: you would think that are even behind them. So I 580 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: think they're all pretty much weighing in on a lot 581 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: of this. And you know, I think one of the 582 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: worst moments Joe had was that interview that he gave 583 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: to this gaggle of reporters on Air Force one headed 584 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 1: back from Israel. Was awful and you know, typical Joe Biden. 585 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 1: I mean, he just couldn't he just couldn't get his 586 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 1: act together. Let me let me remind people, and remember 587 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,239 Speaker 1: this is after he just got rejected by Jordan and 588 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 1: by Egypt and by the Saudis, rejected a meeting with Blincoln, 589 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 1: and even the Palestinian authority and a boss and others 590 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: that they wanted nothing to do with meeting Joe Biden. 591 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: But they had plenty of time for other world leaders 592 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 1: right at the same time. But anyway, this was Joe 593 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 1: on Air Force one after he had spent a couple 594 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:24,719 Speaker 1: hours on the ground in Israel. 595 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 7: Can you talk about the impact of meeting the survivors 596 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 7: and the first responders. I mean, that's all first and 597 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 7: kai I spend an hour and a half about seventeen 598 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 7: or eighteen before some of them, and anyhow, say this 599 00:30:52,280 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 7: virtually every mass shooting, every circumstance where a large number 600 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 7: of people have been victimized and lost. I've spoken to 601 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 7: Architet's department. It says it's highly unlikely and it was 602 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 7: rarely as a bit of a different footprint. And I've 603 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 7: intercepted us anyway. And so that's why if you notice 604 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 7: I didn't say it first, I mean I wanted to 605 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 7: make sure that I knew and look, and I'm not 606 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 7: suggesting that hermas deliberately did it either. That's that old thing. 607 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 7: Got to know how to shoe strength, you know. And 608 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 7: it's not the first time her Maas has wanted something 609 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 7: that didn't function very. 610 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 2: Well, not as fine as moment. Wouldn't you agree? 611 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 3: I would agree. I just question the Middle East policy. Uh, 612 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 3: it just seems to become Obama with the here's the. 613 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 2: Way you got to look at it. Who's in charge? 614 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: The leftist radicals that run and that now dominate the 615 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: Democratic Party. They're no longer a mainstream party. This is 616 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 1: not the party of Joe Lieberman anymore. But Joe Lieberman 617 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 1: wants their vice presidential candidate, you know, was just cast 618 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 1: aside by the Democratic Party. That was the Canarian the 619 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: coal mine, and I like Joe Lieberman. We got along 620 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 1: great over the years, great guy. We agreed on a 621 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 1: lot of foreign policy issues, we disagreed on a lot 622 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 1: of domestic policy issues. He was a moderate Democrat. They 623 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: don't exist anymore. It's an it's you know, it's a dinosaur. 624 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: It's extinct, it's finished. So, you know, we can hope 625 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 1: all we want. But I think it's a combination of 626 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 1: all the crazy leftists that are that make up the 627 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 1: Democratic Party. 628 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 2: I think it's that simple, seems to be. 629 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, buddy, appreciate the call. Eight hundred and 630 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: nine one, Shawn a number if you want to be 631 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: a part of the program.
