I don't know how 44 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:08,679 Speaker 2: long ago. It was ten twelve years ago. My now 45 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 2: late brother Chris, who had the same passion for music 46 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 2: I do. The difference is I don't listen to any 47 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 2: new music. And he continued to listen to new music, 48 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: and so one day he calls and he says, hey, man, 49 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 2: I got the song you got to use on your 50 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 2: Friday drive home.

Well, you know, 61 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 2: sometimes we put up a bit of a dust up 62 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 2: and then later we go back and go, may well 63 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 2: check it out. So I did, and it's that song 64 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 2: you just heard. And in the process we got to 65 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:31,919 Speaker 2: know BlackBerry Smoke because across the country they're on tour 66 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty days of the year. It's got 67 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 2: to be the hardest working band in America. Really. They 68 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 2: live on the road. And Charlie and the rest of 69 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 2: the band reached out to me at one point and said, hey, 70 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 2: we don't personally know you, but you've chosen to use 71 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 2: your show, and wherever we go in the country, from 72 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 2: Oregon to New York, down to Florida, over to la 73 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 2: and all parts in between, I'll come up and say 74 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 2: I discovered you from the Michael Berry Show, and I 75 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 2: love this I've come to love this band. They did 76 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 2: a show for us one time in the studio where 77 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 2: we packed about seven or eight of them into this 78 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 2: tiny little studio where we were. I mean, they're they're 79 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 2: so cramped in there. And they did the music throughout 80 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 2: the show, and then we talked and they cut me 81 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 2: that custom intro that you hear. Hey is Charlie listen 82 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:28,679 Speaker 2: to Michael Berry show anyway? So our listeners have grown 83 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 2: to become fans of theirs over the years. And we 84 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 2: start it's voicemail time. I should probably tell you that, 85 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 2: and Nathan from hilton Head Island in South Carolina called 86 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 2: because he's going to see Black Ray Smoke. 87 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: Michael Berry. Nathan baths hilton Head Islands, South Carolina, BlackBerry Smoke. 88 00:05:55,279 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: I will be in rowe sheeat number seven. Found out 89 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: that they were going to be near to me only today, 90 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,679 Speaker 1: and I made the best decision I've made a long time. 91 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: Instead of trying to take one of my buddies, I 92 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 1: grabbed me a ticket at the Johnny Mercer Theater. The 93 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 1: last time I was there, I was at the Donald 94 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: Trump rally September twenty fourth. Thank you for all that 95 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: you do for our country. I love you brother. I 96 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 1: only know this fan because of you. I can feel 97 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 1: a good one coming on. It's the Michael Berry Show. 98 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 2: Well, thank you, Nathan. What a wonderful message. Next up, 99 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 2: we moved north to Albany, New York, where Taxi Steve 100 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 2: called in about the possibility of Joe Biden issuing preemptive pardons. 101 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 2: Happy holidays to Mike Kenner Ramone. 102 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 4: This is Taxi Steve from small Bunny, New York. 103 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 2: Just something really brief that I want to say. If 104 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 2: the Democrats weren't doing anything criminal, they wouldn't need all 105 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 2: those pardons. You know, he's right, But it's also the 106 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 2: case that they're talking about. Basically, say you talk about 107 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 2: above the law, a preemptive pardon to say anything these 108 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 2: guys may have done in the past, we're saying they're 109 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 2: never going to be held responsible for. Part of the 110 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 2: problem with that is that without the investigation and the 111 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 2: case being brought. You see, part of bringing a case 112 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 2: is making the case, arguing the case. We believe in 113 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 2: Western civilization that this should be done in open court 114 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 2: to an impartial audience, that the case should be stated 115 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 2: and reviewed and picked apart, and you get your defense 116 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 2: and if you cannot afford a defense, the taxpayers will 117 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 2: pay for one for you. They're trying to circumvent and 118 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 2: overrule all of that. But Michael Barry Shaw, you know, 119 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 2: I feel like we're in a good place in America. 120 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 2: The DEI programs are being shattered. That is good for 121 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 2: the country, sound, but it's good for the very people 122 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 2: it was designed to help and ended up hurting. It. 123 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 2: Really is what you want when you achieve something in 124 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 2: this country is you want people to say she's there 125 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 2: because she's good. That black guy is the vice president 126 00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 2: of sales because he's good. And usually that is the truth. 127 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 2: But when you infect the workplace, the academy government with 128 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 2: this nonsense is silliness. You cast a shadow, you put 129 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 2: an asterisk beside everyone, and it is true. You leave 130 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 2: everyone wondering is that person there because they're good or 131 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 2: because they checked the box? Because if they're there because 132 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 2: they checked the box, there's somebody who was good who 133 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 2: isn't there. Right there's somebody who didn't get into school, 134 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 2: or didn't get the job, or didn't get this or 135 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 2: didn't get that, who worked hard to get it. And 136 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 2: you know who's mad right now? Asian Americans. oOoOO. They 137 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 2: studied hard, they came in first in their class, They 138 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 2: did the extra curriculars that they were told you got 139 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 2: to have to be a well rounded student to get 140 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 2: into the esteemed university, which has way too much power 141 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 2: in our society. They played by all the rules and 142 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 2: then they were told, yeah, you came in first, but 143 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 2: you stopped right here, removing the tape further down the track, 144 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 2: We're gonna let someone else win because you always win. 145 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 2: That doesn't work for people. That creates hatred, resentment. Let's 146 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 2: finish out our voicemail shall or I'll forget ramon. Jeff 147 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 2: called in about Pete Hegseth, and he said, it's time 148 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 2: for America to wake up. 149 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 6: Hey, this is Jeff, first time caller, just hearing your show. 150 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 6: Very entertaining my point. You're talking about Pete Haggasi. My 151 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 6: question is America wake up. Who do you want a 152 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 6: proven combat soldier who's a door kicker or do you 153 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 6: want to man be bambdei guy, You make your choice. 154 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 6: We're either going to be the strongest nation in this 155 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,239 Speaker 6: land or we're not. Have a great day. 156 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:23,559 Speaker 2: Very well said, very well set and true. At most workplaces, 157 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 2: you have a guy who gets results. Maybe he's the 158 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 2: top salesman, maybe he's the top operations guy. Maybe he's 159 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 2: just the best worker. And maybe he's rough around the edges. 160 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 2: Maybe he cusses too much, maybe he didn't go to 161 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 2: finishing school. Maybe he doesn't use the right fork, Maybe 162 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 2: he drinks too much, maybe he tells off color jokes. 163 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 2: But he gets the best results. And then you get 164 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 2: these people, effeminine men and women, not all women, but 165 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 2: some who don't understand that you should value results and 166 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:16,200 Speaker 2: not the silly things that they have replaced results with 167 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 2: being polite, being nice, not being disagreeable. So these people 168 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 2: will destroy the best person in your organization. They'll drive 169 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 2: them out, and you'll be left with mediocrity. Oh but 170 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 2: it'll be mediocrity that uses the right fork, that follows 171 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 2: the right TikTok pages, that dresses the right way at 172 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 2: the right time, that watches the right TV shows. Happens 173 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 2: every day, happens in every kind of organization. Our next email, 174 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 2: actually this will be the last voicemail for the day 175 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 2: because I want to get to some other stuff. Is 176 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 2: from just north of Lubbock. Eric is his name, and 177 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 2: he connects the dots between defunding the police in New 178 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 2: York City and Jordan Neely. You see when you go 179 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 2: back and look at all the bad Democrat policies of 180 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 2: the last year, of the last twenty, you see these 181 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 2: situations that crop up that are the direct result if 182 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 2: you defund the police, if you handcuff the police, you 183 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 2: still have bad guys. You'll just have more of them 184 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 2: and they'll be more aggressive. And the rest of the 185 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,959 Speaker 2: citizens are not simply going to stand by and say, well, 186 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,439 Speaker 2: absent any police, we're going to let our women be raped, 187 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 2: We're going to let our elderly be beaten, and we're 188 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 2: going to give up everything we've earned for these turds. No, 189 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 2: that's not going to happen. What's going to happen is 190 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 2: the sheep dogs of society are simply going to say, 191 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 2: I'm going to step up and fill the breach. I'm 192 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 2: going to step up and protect if our police aren't 193 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 2: going to do it. And when that happens, the very 194 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 2: people who wanted you to defund the police and perpetuate 195 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 2: chaos and mayhem, they want to go after the Daniel Penney. 196 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 2: They want to go after the Pete Hegseeth they want 197 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 2: to go after the Donald Trump because they don't want 198 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 2: strong men. They don't want law and order and opportunity 199 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 2: and fairness. That's not what makes them happy. That's not 200 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 2: the drug to which these people are addicted. In any case, 201 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 2: Here's Eric from Lubbock with a great point. 202 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 4: I'm Michael, Eric up north of Lubbock. You know these 203 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 4: guys up in New York City. So they defunded the police, 204 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 4: didn't they already put in their mental health programs? So 205 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 4: how can they scream victim when they've already or supposedly 206 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 4: they've established all these mental health programs instead of police action. 207 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 4: They've lost a lot of police officers. So that money 208 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 4: went somewhere, and I'm sure went into all their mental 209 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 4: health programs. So what does the family complain about. They 210 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 4: even said he was mentally challenged or having a hard 211 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 4: time or whatever. You mean to tell me that they 212 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 4: didn't take advantage of those programs. Interesting, have a nice 213 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 4: night there, Michael. 214 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 2: I love your show. Thank you, Eric, Thank you very much. 215 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 2: Listening on k FYO out of Lubbock, Texas. You know, 216 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 2: the morale of law enforcement in this country had reached 217 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 2: epic lows, and that's not good. I think that will 218 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 2: be restored under Donald Trump. But you know, one of 219 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 2: the great challenges in this country is mental health, and 220 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 2: Jordan Neely did have a mental health problem. Now that 221 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 2: doesn't mean we should allow him to kill people while 222 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 2: he's having an episode, but it's a real challenges live, laugh, learn, 223 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 2: doing it big. On the Michael Berry Show, the Republican 224 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 2: Party will use its best efforts to eliminate daylight saving time, 225 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 2: which has a small but strong constituency, but should not. 226 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 2: Daylight saving time is inconvenient and very costly to our nation. 227 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 2: I used to run our AM stations in Houston. I 228 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 2: stepped down seventeen years ago to just focus on the show, 229 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 2: and that was the moment where I learned that the 230 00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 2: proper terminology is not daylight savings time, which is what 231 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 2: I've always called it. I don't know if that's a 232 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 2: Southeast Texas thing, a Texas thing, or wherever you are 233 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 2: across the country. Do you say daylight saving or daylight savings? 234 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 2: We always said daylight savings time. The proper term is 235 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 2: daylight saving, but it's one of those terms that if 236 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 2: you say it right to me, it sounds weird. The 237 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 2: President in this case did state it properly, but I 238 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 2: don't like proper I like daylight savings and I kind 239 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 2: of feel like, if as a nation we can choose 240 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 2: whether we have it or not, we're ready to make 241 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,120 Speaker 2: decisions like this, we can also choose what we're gonna 242 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 2: call it. And I like daylight savings time, so I'm 243 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 2: gonna call it daylight savings time for the rest of 244 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,919 Speaker 2: this segment. Now you'll know that I know better and 245 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 2: I choose to be an idiot because it's just what 246 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 2: I do, and I'm gonna continue to do it. So 247 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 2: I'm in Houston, Texas, and before our show is over 248 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 2: at seven pm every weekday, it is dark outside. And 249 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,199 Speaker 2: it goes back to when I was a kid. You 250 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 2: get out of school at three, you get home, you 251 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,959 Speaker 2: jump on your bicycle. And I lived out in the country, 252 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 2: so I had to ride a while to find another kid. 253 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 2: You jump onto your bike. I'd have to ride a 254 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 2: couple of miles to get to Michael Stone or Damon 255 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 2: Mayfield or a Huckabee or you know, were at Toby 256 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 2: Shuts or Ben Warning and Craig Hobbs by the time 257 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 2: I got there, because you had to be home by dark. 258 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:40,120 Speaker 2: That was the rule. Dinners at dark by the time 259 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 2: I got there, and we just got ready to think 260 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 2: of what kind of havoc we were going to cause 261 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 2: you'd have to go man starting to get dark. We 262 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 2: didn't have a cell phone back then where Mom could 263 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 2: text you and go get your butt home, so you'd 264 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 2: have to turn around and go back. I mean that's 265 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 2: that might not sound like a big deal now, but 266 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 2: that was a big deal. You didn't have any lay 267 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 2: time when you got home was awful. And my wife, 268 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 2: who is not one for small talk, has taken to 269 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 2: saying at seven o'clock at night or on the weekends, 270 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 2: at you know, five thirty or six, you'll say, it 271 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 2: feels like it's nine o'clock at night, and I think, yep, 272 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,679 Speaker 2: we've reached that age, sweetheart, where we talk about the 273 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 2: weather and the time in the darkness. Because I do 274 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 2: it too. I'm not criticizing her. I'm in on it too, 275 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 2: and I think, yeah, it does feel like nine o'clock. 276 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 2: It feels late now, and we'll say this. I struggle 277 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 2: to go to bed every night. I've always stroked. I 278 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 2: don't want the day to end, and I don't have 279 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 2: the good sense to know that if you go to bed, 280 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 2: you're better equipped the next morning to wake up and 281 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 2: attack the day. But I live every day like it's 282 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 2: my last. So I try to milk every last and 283 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 2: then I go to bed too. Well, I got to 284 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,199 Speaker 2: tell you, I do at least go to bed a 285 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 2: little earlier because it's dark earlier. Do you we do too? No? Yeah, 286 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 2: you do? Okay. Anyway, I think this is a great 287 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 2: idea and I like it, and I like it a lot. 288 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 2: I wanted to Earlier, we talked about Christopher Ray, and 289 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 2: that was a big subject yesterday. A number of folks said, 290 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 2: I have not talked enough about Cash Bettel being the 291 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 2: FBI director, and you know what, that's fair. Earlier we 292 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 2: played Jesse Waters on Fox News talking about Christopher Ray 293 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 2: and the oddness of him stepping down just as the 294 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 2: report came out, saying that they planted a bunch of 295 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 2: their people inside the building and around the building on 296 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 2: January sixth. They tried to set up President Trump. And 297 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 2: I think Jesse had a great phrase. He said, they 298 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 2: criminalized the MAGA movement, so exactly what they did. They 299 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,400 Speaker 2: weren't worried about Trump leaving office. They were worried about 300 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 2: Trump coming back into office. They knew they had cheated, 301 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 2: they knew he was popular, and they wanted to end 302 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 2: him right there. Well, all of that sliminess, And as 303 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 2: I said, we will play clips of other people saying 304 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 2: something that I could say myself. But if they say it, well, 305 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 2: they structure their argument, well, they communicate it well. We 306 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,679 Speaker 2: like to amplify that message. And we don't need all 307 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 2: the credit. You know, it's amazing how much good you 308 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 2: can get done if you don't need to get credit 309 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 2: for everything, no pride of authorship. So here is Jesse 310 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 2: Waters talking about the sliminess of Christopher Ray and the FBI, 311 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,959 Speaker 2: and that that is why President Trump is bringing in 312 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 2: a reformer, Cash Patel, to be the FBI director. 313 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 7: This kind of sliminess is why Trump nominated Cash Patel. 314 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 7: I wonder what else Cash is going to find in 315 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 7: the Bureau when he looks under the hood as. 316 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,400 Speaker 8: A foreign federal prosecutor and a public defender who defended 317 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 8: a lot of these types of cases. What you need 318 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 8: to show is whether or not the the FBI and 319 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 8: government agents were using undercover operatives and informants. On the 320 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 8: day of January sixth, Once you prove that, then you 321 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 8: defeat the insurrection narrative with the. 322 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 2: Fbis on documentation. 323 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 7: And what does this report do to the January sixth defendants. 324 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 7: None of the confidential informants were arrested or charged.

This report does not find 338 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 7: specific wrongdoing or direction from confidential human sources in the rioting. Congress, however, 339 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 7: is likely to seek more information on these sources and their. 340 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:03,400 Speaker 3: Conduct on the day. 341 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 7: Are you allowed to commit crimes as a spy for 342 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,399 Speaker 7: the FBI and not get charged Because they said this 343 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 7: was the greatest attack on democracy ever said it was 344 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 7: up there with nine to eleven traders.

If you're an. 347 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 7: FBI rat and just walk away, Congress has to find out. 348 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 3: And what does this mean for pardons? 349 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 7: I mean the Hunter Biden pardon already greased the runway 350 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 7: for Trump.

I also enjoy 383 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 2: so many elements of what we get to do, whether 384 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 2: it is talking about issues of the day, but also 385 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 2: promoting values that I think are important. Adoption, parenting, being 386 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 2: a good spouse, investing in your relationship with your spouse, 387 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 2: with your children, with your parents, with your employees, with 388 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 2: your country, civic duty. These are all things that I 389 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 2: get to hopefully increase the activism of in this country. 390 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 2: If we're any good at what we do, and that's 391 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 2: a real that's a ministry to me, it's a mission 392 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 2: to me. I also really enjoy promoting businesses. When I 393 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 2: started in radio nineteen years ago, I didn't use the 394 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:21,360 Speaker 2: term advertising, I use the term sponsorship, and I view 395 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 2: it that a company who puts their name and their 396 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 2: money behind me, that I endorse as a service provider 397 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 2: or a provider of goods, that that relationship should matter. 398 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 2: It should be authentic, it should be legitimate, and that 399 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 2: hopefully we would increase their business because our listeners would 400 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 2: use their goods and services. But by the same token 401 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 2: that our listeners would feel like, hey, look, if I 402 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 2: need to hire someone in this field, Michael Berry's got 403 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 2: someone who can do that, and they're going to take 404 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 2: better care of me, and they're going to share my values. 405 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 2: Because every dollar you spend is like a vote you cast. 406 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 2: If if you want to keep Chevy in business by chevyes, 407 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 2: if you want to put Forward out of business by 408 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 2: Chevies and don't buy Fords, or if you want to 409 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 2: keep Forward in business by Fords and don't buy Cheves, 410 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 2: That's just how it works. If you want to keep 411 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:24,159 Speaker 2: small businesses afloat, this is a time when people are 412 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 2: spending money don't normally because they're buying gifts. If you 413 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,640 Speaker 2: want to keep small businesses in your local community afloat, 414 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 2: then you got to spend your dollars there people will 415 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 2: bemoan the Walmart coming in and driving the hardware the 416 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 2: local hardware store, sporting goods store, gun store, bike store 417 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 2: out of business. But Walmart doesn't drive them out of business. 418 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 2: The customer does. The customer doesn't vote for them. So 419 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,360 Speaker 2: if you say I like to keep Old Bill's hardware 420 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 2: in business, but you go buy your stuff at Home 421 00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 2: Deep or Walmart, then what are you thinks going to happen? 422 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 2: You can't hope Trump's president and vote for Biden. Doesn't 423 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 2: work that way. Another aspect of what we do is 424 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,439 Speaker 2: I get to work with very talented people who create 425 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 2: this show, Jim Mudd, Chad Knockanishi, Ramon, Roeblis, Emily Bull, 426 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 2: and we've got some folks who contribute, Chance McLean, Rachel 427 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 2: Sandy who do so much, and so many of you 428 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 2: who send emails with a funny joke, a clever take 429 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 2: a perspective. Many times, if I'm talking about regulations in 430 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 2: the oil patch, I don't work in the oil patch. 431 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,239 Speaker 2: And when you share how that's affecting your business, or 432 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 2: how the healthcare regulations are affecting you as a patient 433 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,959 Speaker 2: or you as a doctor, that helps me. And that's 434 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 2: why so many of you get emails back from me, Hey, 435 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 2: tell me more about that. Explain that to me. Where 436 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 2: does that come from, what's the source? How many years 437 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 2: have you done this? Why is that the case which 438 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:03,479 Speaker 2: you tell me about. I do love to hear from you, 439 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 2: and I am a work in progress as we all are. 440 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 2: I'm trying to learn about new things all day, every day, 441 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 2: just as you are. And I view it as We've 442 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 2: got this massive audience that is really a massive opportunity 443 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 2: for me to have a lot of people to help 444 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 2: me prepare this show, in addition to the talented team 445 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 2: we have who build this show. And that's why I 446 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 2: read every email, because I hear from people across the country, 447 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 2: across the socioeconomic spectrum, across every spectrum. Sometimes I'll get 448 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 2: an email from a black lady who says, hey, you 449 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 2: know you took this position on this, but did you 450 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 2: ever consider this? Oh interesting, And we might go back 451 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 2: and forth. Or I might hear from an Asian immigrant 452 00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 2: or a Cuban refugee, or a former communist party official 453 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 2: has happened in Eastern Europe who says, hey, this was 454 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 2: what we did and why we did it. Oh, tell 455 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 2: me more and I developed my wife last because I 456 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 2: developed these relationships with people I'm never going to meet. 457 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 2: I don't even know what they look like, and we 458 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 2: email back and forth, and I get a chance to 459 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 2: ask questions that I wouldn't otherwise be able to ask. 460 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 2: Because you can google anything. Of course you can ai it, 461 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 2: but the perspective of a person with experience can sometimes 462 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 2: help give you texture in understanding an issue. All that 463 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 2: by way of saying that when you take the time 464 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 2: to send me an email through our website Michael Berryshow 465 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 2: dot com, I take the time to read it. I 466 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 2: can't possibly respond to everyone because if you think of 467 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 2: just hitting the response and then how long it takes 468 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 2: to compose a response and then it hit sin, it 469 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 2: would mean that I couldn't read every email, and reading 470 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 2: every email is something that still matters to me. Maybe 471 00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 2: one day I won't be able to do that, but 472 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 2: for now I can. It's also why I tell people 473 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 2: who send me try to send me every joke or 474 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 2: forward this or hey what about this? I do one 475 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 2: per day and not anymore because if I get fifteen 476 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 2: hundred emails a day and every one of them adds 477 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 2: just one, that's three thousand and now, the system collapses. 478 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 2: The system works when people are respectful of my time 479 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 2: the way I try to be respectful of yours. You 480 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 2: can while you're on our website, you can check out 481 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 2: our merch store. Proceeds go to our team.

I can get through this. 497 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 2: And finally, I'm on Facebook, I'm on Twitter, and I'm 498 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 2: on Instagram. Although I'm not very good with Instagram, and 499 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 2: I do post a lot of things on Facebook. I 500 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 2: post a lot of personal stuff. You know, today I 501 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 2: commented I waxed eloquent about the issue of earwax. And 502 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:42,479 Speaker 2: sometimes I'll talk about breeds of dogs, or somewhere I've eaten, 503 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 2: or some dish I tried, or some trend of kids 504 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 2: doing this now or kids doing that. It's stuff that 505 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 2: may not be worthy of being on the show, but 506 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 2: it's stuff that I and then we get to interact 507 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 2: and create a conversation going on there, and I have 508 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 2: some fun with it. I hope you have a wonderful 509 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 2: I hope you make the most of it. And making 510 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 2: the most of it may not necessarily mean cleaning out 511 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 2: the garage or mowing the grass, or getting all of 512 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 2: your projects done, the rearranging done, or the furniture built 513 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 2: or whatever that means. Making the most of it might 514 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 2: mean sitting on your bum and watching football and just relaxing. 515 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 2: And sometimes yeah, you need that too. We'll see you 516 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 2: back on Monday.
