00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:05.480
Seven hundred w LW. I'm Gary
Jeff Walker excited to me that he has

2
00:00:05.519 --> 00:00:10.279
always and another fantastic show ready to
go. We're going to start tonight with

3
00:00:10.439 --> 00:00:16.239
Lisa Klee. We spoke to her
last year about Save Haven Baby Boxes in

4
00:00:16.320 --> 00:00:22.280
the area. Lisa's a volunteer.
She works with these agencies to help women

5
00:00:22.320 --> 00:00:29.000
who are in crisis and to mostly
help babies. Save Haven Baby Boxes are

6
00:00:29.399 --> 00:00:33.759
in many different parts of the country, all over the country, in firehouses

7
00:00:33.880 --> 00:00:38.159
usually, And from two thousand and
one to twenty twenty two, the last

8
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:44.600
year we've got full data for,
there were thirteen hundred and forty one safely

9
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:51.439
surrendered babies in this country, totally
abandoned, one ninety four left in a

10
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:58.759
dumpster or in a backpack or some
other horrible thing. And there have been

11
00:00:58.759 --> 00:01:03.400
fifty six babies who have reclaimed by
their birth parents. But thirteen hundred and

12
00:01:03.400 --> 00:01:11.959
forty one babies lives saved because of
Safe havens like the ones that are going

13
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:15.120
up in the tri State. To
talk about a brand new Safe Haven box

14
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:22.560
and the efforts that are continuing to
save babies and to help mothers and really

15
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:26.799
just I think they're doing God's work. Lisa Klee is back with us.

16
00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:30.040
Lisa, good evening, How are
you good evening? Thank you so much

17
00:01:30.079 --> 00:01:34.239
for having me on, and I
can share about baby boxes again. Yes,

18
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:38.920
absolutely, We've got a couple of
big things happening here in the area.

19
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:44.079
First off, there is a brand
new baby box at a fire department

20
00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:49.239
in Northern Kentucky that you wanted to
mention. Yes, we actually have our

21
00:01:51.280 --> 00:01:57.879
Live Safe Haven baby box dedication tomorrow
and Ludlow, Kentucky at four pm.

22
00:01:57.480 --> 00:02:04.400
And we're super we're excited about this
location basically because it's the closest we have

23
00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:10.840
to Cincinnati and Newport and Covington.
So we're super excited that we have an

24
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:16.520
option for mothers who are in crisis
that they're going to have a safe place

25
00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:23.520
to surrender their baby. So there
are not any in Cincinnati. Do you

26
00:02:23.560 --> 00:02:27.120
deal with Ohio at all, Lisa, or just Kentucky? I do.

27
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:30.840
I do not at this point.
I'm just trying to get some in Northern

28
00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:35.639
Kentucky. We only had one in
Northern Kentucky and that was in Fort Mitchell.

29
00:02:36.199 --> 00:02:40.400
That box was put in I believe
about four years ago. So after

30
00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:47.520
tomorrow and Thursday, because Thursday's Gallatin
County Safe Haven Baby Box dedication. After

31
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:53.800
that, we'll have five that we've
that I've personally been involved with in this

32
00:02:53.919 --> 00:03:00.840
past year. But also several weeks
ago the city of Edgewall, the fire

33
00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:04.879
department voted to do a safe Haven
baby box and funded it all themselves,

34
00:03:04.960 --> 00:03:08.840
So they had a dedication several weeks
ago. So that'll put us at seven

35
00:03:08.960 --> 00:03:13.919
in the local area here. So
you guys, you guys raised the money

36
00:03:13.919 --> 00:03:19.759
through donations and you volunteer. What
is the cost of a baby box?

37
00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:24.080
And you guys, you guys foot
the bill that your organization actually, I

38
00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:29.800
mean, how does that happen?
Tell me how it happens is is first

39
00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:35.719
you go and present to the city, county fire department or fiscal court and

40
00:03:36.199 --> 00:03:38.639
try to get the approval. Once
you get the approval, you're pretty much

41
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:44.400
on your own to raise the funds
because you know, safe Haven Baby Box

42
00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:49.599
is a nonprofit. So each of
the five boxes we've been able to raise

43
00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:53.680
twelve thousand plus and most of them
have been around twenty thousand that we've raised.

44
00:03:53.719 --> 00:04:00.400
It takes twelve thousand dollars raised to
order the actual box itself, which

45
00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:06.439
is climate controlled and alarmed obviously,
So once you reach the twelve thousand mark,

46
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:10.199
we can order it. Place the
order. It takes about eight to

47
00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:14.719
twelve weeks to get the box.
They're made at say pay and baby Box.

48
00:04:14.759 --> 00:04:18.800
There, they're delivered and then they
have to be installed by qualified contractor

49
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:25.439
and that usually takes several weeks at
that point. But it's a minimum commitment

50
00:04:25.480 --> 00:04:30.319
of twelve thousand, but that's a
very low dollar amount because it's really five

51
00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:32.360
thousand to get it installed. But
so far, at the five that I've

52
00:04:32.360 --> 00:04:39.720
worked on, I've been able to
get contractors to volunteer to do the installation,

53
00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:46.240
which has saved us a tremendous amount
of money and fundraising efforts. What

54
00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:50.000
do you think would be a hurdle
or an obstacle for fire departments, be

55
00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:55.600
the city or county to say,
you know what, we really don't have

56
00:04:55.639 --> 00:05:00.240
a need for that, because I
can't imagine if if it's not costing any

57
00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:02.680
money out of their budget, right, it's not costing any money out of

58
00:05:02.680 --> 00:05:08.800
the county or city budget to have
a safe baby box installed at a fire

59
00:05:08.879 --> 00:05:13.639
department, And all the fire department
has to do then is whoever is on

60
00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:18.560
staff or on tour the alarm goes
off, and right then what's the next

61
00:05:18.600 --> 00:05:23.000
step? I mean, they obviously
rescue the baby and then wait for what

62
00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:27.839
child services to come or a hospital, or what's the process when a baby

63
00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:32.199
is surrendered in a safe haven baby
box. When a baby is surrendered in

64
00:05:32.240 --> 00:05:36.920
the box, the baby is placed
inside the safe Haven baby box, the

65
00:05:36.959 --> 00:05:41.759
box locks, there's no putting the
baby in, taking it out, or

66
00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:46.399
somebody can come and take the baby
out from the outside. The normal response

67
00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:51.199
time by the fire department is around
two minutes there with the baby. They

68
00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:58.319
transport the baby to the hospital and
child Services is contacted and then they're placed

69
00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:02.519
in a foster to adopt hall according
to whatever the states. So why in

70
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:06.920
the heck? Why in the heck
if you went to a city or a

71
00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:13.959
county or a fiscal court and you
what would be a good reason they would

72
00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:18.519
reject having one if you had the
funds to install it. And I mean,

73
00:06:18.879 --> 00:06:24.600
isn't their job as a first responder
to protect and serve every life in

74
00:06:24.720 --> 00:06:33.000
their service area. Absolutely, And
it's my understanding at secondhand information that Newport

75
00:06:33.680 --> 00:06:38.800
that they don't need one. They've
been in that area for a long time

76
00:06:38.800 --> 00:06:41.439
and they don't need one. So
I don't know if it's just a sense

77
00:06:41.480 --> 00:06:45.279
of pride that they don't want to
admit that they would need that, or

78
00:06:45.319 --> 00:06:48.120
they could that could be an opportunity
for, you know, to save a

79
00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:50.759
life of a baby. I'm not
sure what that is, but I know

80
00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:57.040
in one of the cities that was
more difficult to get it approved through city

81
00:06:57.079 --> 00:07:02.680
council. They were concerned about their
legal liability and finally the city attorney said,

82
00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:06.519
this is there's no extra liability than
there isn't anything that we do.

83
00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:11.759
So after about six meetings with city
council, they finally approved it. But

84
00:07:12.160 --> 00:07:15.959
so far, the fire departments have
been absolutely amazing. I love to see

85
00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:20.120
how these firemen are just all about
saving these babies. It's just like they

86
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:25.639
just melt. So, you know, the the Newport situations kind of a

87
00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:30.199
little bit outside of the box from
what I'm familiar with so far on responses

88
00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:33.800
from the fire department, so I'm
not really sure what's the whole forces driving

89
00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:39.560
behind that. I also approached Covington
as well, and they said they maybe

90
00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:44.199
consider it when they do their new
building. I know Florence Fire Department they're

91
00:07:44.240 --> 00:07:47.920
building a new firehouse on Dream Street. They voted on it long before I

92
00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:50.759
even went and visited them. And
they're using their own funds, so they've

93
00:07:50.959 --> 00:07:55.680
they're already going to implement a baby
box at their location. They're using their

94
00:07:55.720 --> 00:08:01.040
own funds. Well, there's a
shining example for first responders all over northern

95
00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:05.680
Kentucky. Thank you, way to
go, Florence, uh Lisa. Tomorrow

96
00:08:05.839 --> 00:08:11.480
four pm the dedication of the Safe
Baby Box in Ludlow at their firehouse,

97
00:08:11.560 --> 00:08:16.399
right, yes, correct, And
anyone's welcome who would love to attend?

98
00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:20.399
And Thursday down in Gallaton, Gallatin
County, correct, Yes, at the

99
00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:26.319
at the EMS building and it's at
two pm. And at both of the

100
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:30.519
baby box dedications. Monica Kelsey will
be there. She's the founder of Baby

101
00:08:30.600 --> 00:08:35.360
Save Haven baby Boxes, and she
shares her story of how she was the

102
00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:39.240
result of a rape and an abandoned
baby, and this is kind of her

103
00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:43.960
motivation for while it's not kind of, it is her motivation to save babies.

104
00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:46.840
God, God bless you for everything
to do. Listen, we're short

105
00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:52.039
on time, but I wanted to
thank you for spending some time this evening

106
00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:56.000
to talk about the Save Have Baby
Box. And again, if people want

107
00:08:56.000 --> 00:09:00.000
to know more, where they go
real quick. They can go to say

108
00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:03.960
pay and Baby website. There's a
Facebook page and they also have an Instagram

109
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:07.519
page. All right, fantastic.
Lisa Klee with us again tonight on the

110
00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:13.879
Nightcap. Andre Archie The Virtue of
color Blindness. Next, a good day

111
00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:18.879
starts with a good Morning. Here's
Joe. His friends call him average Joe,

112
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:22.840
but there's nothing average about this man. He starts his day with Mike

113
00:09:22.960 --> 00:09:26.639
McConnell. Good Morning. He likes
Mike's sense of humor and common sense.

114
00:09:26.679 --> 00:09:31.320
Waves getting the latest news, weather, traffic, in sports, and he

115
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:35.759
really likes the investment news, which
have helped him sock away enough money to

116
00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:39.799
travel on his own private yacht.
Mike mcconnald Tomorrow morning at five on seven

117
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:43.799
hundred WLW. I'm starting the new
year by making my home feel like new

118
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:48.679
with advanced cleaning at Zeros take advantage
of their new year sale. Welcome once

119
00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:54.480
again, Joe the Nightcap on seven
hundred WLW. Garry Jeff our Guest is

120
00:09:56.399 --> 00:10:01.879
an Associate professor of Ancient Greek Philosophy
Colorado State University. Got his PhD from

121
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:09.399
Duquane University. And somebody that I've
been wanting to talk to well ever since

122
00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:13.679
I heard about his new book,
The Virtue of Color Blindness. It's doctor

123
00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:18.799
Andre Archie, PhD. And doctor
Archie, welcome to the show. May

124
00:10:18.840 --> 00:10:22.240
I call you doctor or would you
rather just be called Andre? I don't

125
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:24.519
care. Oh, you can call
me Andre, all right. I appreciate

126
00:10:24.559 --> 00:10:28.360
the opportunity, and yeah, just
call me Andre. And it's an important

127
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:31.799
topic and you know, we can
get into the book and all of that,

128
00:10:31.919 --> 00:10:35.000
but yeah, I'm happy to be
here. So you highlight I'm guessing

129
00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:37.480
in this book from just a little
bit. I've not read the book for

130
00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:43.120
a little bit, I've read about
you, and the topic is that,

131
00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:52.759
basically, you're making the case that
things like DEI and identity politics in general

132
00:10:52.440 --> 00:11:00.360
are antithetical to the actual founders and
the way the country was supposed to run

133
00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:05.240
and all of the things that occurred
in the past, segregation and the awfulness

134
00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:13.000
of slavery and everything in America.
But all of those things required people to

135
00:11:13.080 --> 00:11:20.639
not observe the morals and the foundations
of the republic, and that's why they

136
00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:26.960
were eliminated. And it seems like
today the identity politics crowd and those pushing

137
00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:35.519
DEI and critical race theory, for
example, are really being antithetical to America's

138
00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:39.559
promise, and they're kind of a
slap in the face to the civil rights

139
00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:41.759
movement and the early gay rights movement? Am I on base with that?

140
00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:46.639
I think you're on base? And
that's exactly right. So the book The

141
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:52.279
Virtue of Color Blindness basically starts with
the proposition that we all find intuitive,

142
00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:56.600
or at least a lot of us, and that is when we look at

143
00:11:56.600 --> 00:12:00.879
seventeen seventy six and we look at
eighteen sixty three. So the country was

144
00:12:00.960 --> 00:12:05.240
founded in liberty, and then,
of course it took nearly one hundred years

145
00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:11.399
later to establish a new birth of
freedom. So we have eighteen sixty three,

146
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:20.559
that idea or those ideas, those
two dates basically argued that we should

147
00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:24.799
all be treated equal, we should
be equal before the law. And I

148
00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:28.879
think we've made a tremendous amount of
progress, especially when it comes to Black

149
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:35.120
Americans, in terms of that idea, those ideas, those founding principles.

150
00:12:35.840 --> 00:12:39.000
But what we get today in the
public square, and I discuss Kindy,

151
00:12:39.279 --> 00:12:46.039
ibramex Kindy, I discuss Coats,
tany Hes Coats, and several others who

152
00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:50.200
are dominating the public square in terms
of racial discourse. What they're doing is

153
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:56.440
divisive. They're trying to pit Americans
against one another in terms of race.

154
00:12:58.279 --> 00:13:01.279
And so the argument that I make
oldultimately is that the only way forward as

155
00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:07.320
Americans is to take seriously the idea
that we should judge each other based upon

156
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:13.120
our characters, not the color of
our skin. Now the opponents will say,

157
00:13:13.120 --> 00:13:16.240
well, that's naive and that's simple. Well, it's not naive and

158
00:13:16.279 --> 00:13:22.399
simple because it's easy. It's simple
to judge someone based upon their race or

159
00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:26.720
their ethnicity. That's easy. The
hard part is is to assess a person's

160
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:33.480
actions. Of course, it's aspirational. We're not perfect, we're falling individuals,

161
00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:39.000
we're fallen human beings, right,
But it's aspirational. And that's the

162
00:13:39.039 --> 00:13:43.519
only way forward is to strive to
judge each other by the content of our

163
00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:46.799
characters. And so the book basically
argues against all those who want to say,

164
00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:50.720
well, no, we can't do
that, it's impossible. I say

165
00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:54.960
that's not the case, and I
make an argument for the colorblind proposition.

166
00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:58.480
When I hear political speeches by people
and I'll I'll just cite him as an

167
00:13:58.519 --> 00:14:03.840
example because he's the current president of
the United States. When Joe Biden talks

168
00:14:03.840 --> 00:14:09.759
in a campaign trail to a largely
black audience and tells them, if you

169
00:14:09.879 --> 00:14:13.360
vote for so and so and not
for me, they're going to put you

170
00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:18.320
back in chains, it seems like
a very, very not only divisive statement,

171
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:30.279
but it sounds exactly like the segregationists
of the old Democratic Party. I

172
00:14:30.320 --> 00:14:35.159
mean, like I said, it's
a slap in the face to the legacy

173
00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:41.360
of people like doctor King. And
you cite also a good friend of mine

174
00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:48.120
named Scott Powell, who's also a
fantastic thinker and author, wrote a book

175
00:14:48.159 --> 00:14:54.320
called Rediscovering America, and he talked
about last week for our Martin Luther King

176
00:14:54.480 --> 00:14:58.200
discussion about the letter from the Birmingham
jail, which you cite. And I

177
00:14:58.200 --> 00:15:03.080
think this is in into the discussion
too, is it not. Oh,

178
00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:05.519
it's very important, And how do
you started off? The question or the

179
00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:13.240
comment is exactly right. I mean, for people like Biden to make such

180
00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:16.200
I mean, it's condescending. I
mean, it really says. It says

181
00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:22.120
a lot about how that crowd,
how he sees African Americans, people of

182
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:28.200
color, African American, African Americans, in particular, it's very condescending because

183
00:15:28.200 --> 00:15:33.279
what it does, basically, it
takes away the agency that we all have,

184
00:15:33.679 --> 00:15:39.639
right, we have this, these
these god given abilities to exercise our

185
00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:43.559
capacities to the best of our ability, to flourish, to be happy,

186
00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:50.360
and for someone to argue that America
is so systemically racist that there's no way

187
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:54.000
that we can act out of our
own volition. And that's the problem that

188
00:15:54.039 --> 00:15:58.200
we get with the way that we
talk about race today. It's as if

189
00:16:00.960 --> 00:16:04.799
people of color, African Americans in
particular, they don't have agency. There's

190
00:16:04.799 --> 00:16:11.399
something about maybe it's a genetic argument. Maybe they're really making a quite scary

191
00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:15.799
argument regarding Black Americans, but they
can't. They're not in control of their

192
00:16:15.799 --> 00:16:19.240
own fate, their own destiny.
And so really I think the Democratic Party

193
00:16:19.279 --> 00:16:26.480
honestly might believe in some of that, or for whatever reason, it's been

194
00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:30.919
detrimental. And so again the book
tries to take a square aim at that

195
00:16:32.039 --> 00:16:34.919
way of thinking because it's dangerous.
Well, you're an associate professor on a

196
00:16:34.960 --> 00:16:42.559
college campus, and that's not exactly
I don't know, it's not what academic

197
00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:51.240
institutions started out with their goal of
actually teaching people creative thinking and being able

198
00:16:51.240 --> 00:16:55.960
to think from themselves and learning how
to do that instead of, you know,

199
00:16:56.720 --> 00:17:00.559
hoarding them all into groupthink areas.
I mean, you've got to encounter

200
00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:03.480
that on campuses, and maybe on
your own campus. And how do you

201
00:17:03.920 --> 00:17:07.960
how do you deal with that,
doctor Archie? Yeah, so, I

202
00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:12.799
you know, my campus is wonderful. Uh. So far, maybe people

203
00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:17.640
don't take me seriously in terms of
what what this book argues, but they

204
00:17:17.680 --> 00:17:22.160
at least respect my point of view. And so I can say my institution,

205
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:30.079
Colorado State University, they're open.
They're open. Now there are those

206
00:17:30.079 --> 00:17:33.640
on campus who who argue otherwise,
and and I and I get that,

207
00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:37.400
but so far, so far,
and and and I'm keeping a watch.

208
00:17:38.400 --> 00:17:41.359
It's it's been okay. But you
know, as you go up the food

209
00:17:41.400 --> 00:17:48.839
chain in terms of academic settings,
institutions, it's it's quite loud, it's

210
00:17:48.880 --> 00:17:53.480
quite it's quite pervasive in terms of
this this ideology. So I do think

211
00:17:53.559 --> 00:17:57.920
that as you go up the food
chain in terms of the prestige of of

212
00:17:57.920 --> 00:18:00.720
of of the universe, these of
the colleges, you get more of an

213
00:18:00.880 --> 00:18:07.599
entitlement mentality both among the faculty and
the students, and that hasn't been discussed

214
00:18:07.640 --> 00:18:11.359
a lot when it comes to this
topic, but I certainly think there are

215
00:18:11.400 --> 00:18:15.319
certain presuppositions that you find off the
board. In terms of academia. Of

216
00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:19.279
course, it's left of center.
With certain institutions that have a lot of

217
00:18:19.279 --> 00:18:25.839
influence, you find the predominance of
DEI, of anti racism, etc.

218
00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:29.839
But you know there are other places, just real quick, there are other

219
00:18:29.839 --> 00:18:33.599
places that I would say are starting
to trend in the other way. They're

220
00:18:33.599 --> 00:18:37.079
starting to take a stand other institutions. I was just going to say that

221
00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:44.359
I think we're starting to see the
reversal of these DEI policies not just on

222
00:18:44.440 --> 00:18:47.960
college campuses, but in corporate America
too, and that's a move in the

223
00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:52.200
right direction in my opinion. Listen, I'm sorry we're out of time for

224
00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:59.240
this session. Here, Doctor Andre
Archie, PhD from Colorado State University the

225
00:18:59.279 --> 00:19:03.839
book The Virtue of Color Blindness,
and I got to get my copy.

226
00:19:03.920 --> 00:19:07.359
Thank you so much, doctor Archie, Thank you for having me. You

227
00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:18.440
bet big fun. It is the
Nightcap seven hundred WLW joining us again,

228
00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:22.480
and I am so thankful that he's
willing to come on as often as he

229
00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:26.480
does. Of the executive director of
the Climate Science Coalition of America. Author

230
00:19:26.480 --> 00:19:33.200
of four great books on energy,
climate and sustainable development, over one hundred

231
00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:37.880
thousand copies of those in print,
is newest book, Green Breakdown. The

232
00:19:37.920 --> 00:19:45.960
Coming Renewable Energy Failure is looking more
prophetic by the day with what's happening with

233
00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:53.160
cold weather and EV car chargers and
EV cars, electronic vehicles just in general

234
00:19:53.240 --> 00:20:00.039
due to the cold and now he
says there's a brand new climate threat that

235
00:20:00.079 --> 00:20:04.079
the climate cultist are touting, and
that's climate deaths. So we're going to

236
00:20:04.119 --> 00:20:07.400
get into all of that with mister
Gorham. But first and foremost, how

237
00:20:07.440 --> 00:20:12.079
are you, my friend doing great? Gary Jeff? Keeping warm now in

238
00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:18.960
Virginia? So I'm out of the
Chicago weather. What So you've gone to

239
00:20:18.039 --> 00:20:22.799
a warmer climb? You say,
how many degrees celsius is that warmer than

240
00:20:22.920 --> 00:20:27.440
Chicago this time of year, Steve, Chicago is about Chicago's about ten degrees

241
00:20:27.480 --> 00:20:34.279
celsius average temperature around the year and
Virginia about sixteen. So it's twice as

242
00:20:34.319 --> 00:20:40.559
warm as what the United Nations says
of a catastrophe. So I am I

243
00:20:40.559 --> 00:20:42.599
am kind of concerned. I'm endangering
my wife's health. And my help by

244
00:20:42.640 --> 00:20:47.519
moving down here. But nah,
I was gonna say, Man, I

245
00:20:47.559 --> 00:20:52.680
mean you were living on the wild
side, Gorham. You really are well.

246
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:56.279
You know, in Chicago they got
a new saying about electric vehicles.

247
00:20:56.480 --> 00:21:00.119
Yeah, they say that ninety percent
of them, wherever made, are still

248
00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:08.480
on the road and the other ten
percent made at home. That is a

249
00:21:08.519 --> 00:21:15.960
green breakdown in a nutshell right there. Yeah, So a couple of things

250
00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:18.039
here off the top. You just
attended a conference over the weekend. I

251
00:21:18.079 --> 00:21:22.119
don't know if you wanted to get
into that at all, but you did

252
00:21:22.200 --> 00:21:26.720
learn that there is a new climate
scare tactic and it's climate deaths. So

253
00:21:26.920 --> 00:21:32.880
tell me what you heard. But
the latest, well we heard. We

254
00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:37.039
heard a little bit of this.
Last year, Missus Hillary Clinton, former

255
00:21:37.119 --> 00:21:41.400
Secretary of State presidential candidate, came
out and said, you wanted to start

256
00:21:41.400 --> 00:21:45.119
counting climate deaths. And now just
this morning, there is a paper published

257
00:21:45.759 --> 00:21:49.119
by a guy by the name McCullin
Carlson, who I think is at Georgetown

258
00:21:49.200 --> 00:21:56.680
University that says, after millions of
this was in nature medicine, after millions

259
00:21:56.680 --> 00:22:02.400
of preventable deaths, climate change must
be treated like a health emergency, and

260
00:22:02.519 --> 00:22:06.400
he claims that four million people have
died from the climate since the year two

261
00:22:06.440 --> 00:22:11.359
thousand. And they're talking about all
kinds of things in there, things like

262
00:22:11.640 --> 00:22:18.960
malnutrition and diarrheal disease and malaria and
cardiovascular disease even which is a proxy for

263
00:22:19.079 --> 00:22:23.759
heat related illness. So basically,
if you die now, it's due to

264
00:22:23.799 --> 00:22:29.680
the climate. And christ has taken
it up too with an article today and

265
00:22:29.759 --> 00:22:33.000
says that four million is an underestimate. So I'm going out on a limb

266
00:22:33.079 --> 00:22:36.680
here. I'm predicting that this is
going to be the next big push,

267
00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:41.640
that just like COVID nineteen, they're
going to start counting climate deaths exactly what

268
00:22:41.680 --> 00:22:45.759
it sounds like. And we found
out later that about two thirds of the

269
00:22:45.759 --> 00:22:49.799
people that were designated as having died
from COVID nineteen actually died with COVID nineteen,

270
00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:57.319
not because of COVID nineteen. And
if that many people four million is

271
00:22:57.319 --> 00:23:03.640
an underestimate of climate deaths, didn't
they certainly have to take drastic action.

272
00:23:03.799 --> 00:23:07.119
What will they do this time?
Will they ask us, Will they ask

273
00:23:07.240 --> 00:23:11.720
us to live on the streets,
Will they ask us to not drive any

274
00:23:11.960 --> 00:23:18.680
vehicle at all? Will they tell
us that we have to spend spend every

275
00:23:18.799 --> 00:23:22.039
night in the dark. I was
looking at the map you've got that you

276
00:23:22.119 --> 00:23:30.720
sent me. Thank you for that
about the cost for electricity, rising electricity

277
00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:40.039
prices and the grid under the pressure. The average is US average is something

278
00:23:40.079 --> 00:23:44.960
like fifteen something since per KILLO what
hour is that about? Right? That

279
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:48.319
was for twenty twenty two. The
new numbers will come out in a month,

280
00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:49.759
so we'll have the update. But
yeah, it was fifteen cents of

281
00:23:49.839 --> 00:23:55.480
kill a what hour on average?
And Ohio was pretty good about fourteen cents

282
00:23:55.480 --> 00:23:59.519
of kill a whatt hour. Well, I live in Kentucky and Kentucky's even

283
00:23:59.559 --> 00:24:07.319
better about twelve twelve five per kilowatt
hour. So I can't imagine it being

284
00:24:07.440 --> 00:24:12.160
more than that because the bills are
still pretty damned high. Uh, but

285
00:24:12.400 --> 00:24:21.200
I'm looking at it and uh.
And the other thing is liquified nature.

286
00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:25.039
I want to get to the liquefied
natural gas and what another one of the

287
00:24:25.079 --> 00:24:30.640
policies. It was instituted almost from
day one of the Biden administration, and

288
00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:37.839
they certainly have continued this craziness where
it comes to climate and energy. President

289
00:24:37.839 --> 00:24:44.839
Biden halted the approval of new liquefied
natural gas tern terminals. Liquefied natural gas

290
00:24:44.920 --> 00:24:49.039
is one of the cleanest sources of
energy ever thought about on the planet.

291
00:24:49.200 --> 00:24:53.640
Is it not? Yeah, it
is, it's uh. And I will

292
00:24:53.960 --> 00:24:56.839
when I when I have time in
a presentation, I will often ask the

293
00:24:56.880 --> 00:25:03.160
audience which energy source it's done the
most to reduce air pollution. And the

294
00:25:03.200 --> 00:25:06.599
answer isn't wind, It isn't solar, it is it is natural gas and

295
00:25:07.279 --> 00:25:14.720
liquid propane gas or propane, which
have drastically reduced pollution indoors. If you

296
00:25:14.759 --> 00:25:18.519
put a gas furnace in, you
reduce a part particular pollution in the house

297
00:25:18.559 --> 00:25:25.119
about a thousand times from a coal
or a wood burning system, and our

298
00:25:25.160 --> 00:25:29.079
air is very, very much cleaner
because of that. So the environments,

299
00:25:29.279 --> 00:25:33.519
the environmentalists have it exactly wrong trying
to ban natural gas. Of course they

300
00:25:33.680 --> 00:25:37.720
they're worried about the carbon dioxid which
shouldn't be called a pollutant. But you're

301
00:25:37.799 --> 00:25:42.920
right, mister Biden today has decided
to halt new export licenses. We still

302
00:25:42.960 --> 00:25:48.720
have three or four big LNG terminals, and we're the biggest shipper of liquified

303
00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:55.559
natural gas around the world right now. But he's he's doing this to appease

304
00:25:55.559 --> 00:26:00.200
the environmental groups. Well, and
when you say environ mental groups, what

305
00:26:00.319 --> 00:26:10.519
you really mean are these cults.
Because the climate religion is rife with people

306
00:26:10.559 --> 00:26:15.160
who have made this their mission in
life. This is what they feel that

307
00:26:15.200 --> 00:26:22.519
they are called to do. Climate
crisis is their God. So you can

308
00:26:22.640 --> 00:26:29.640
understand some of the craziness because these
people are in something that's you know,

309
00:26:30.000 --> 00:26:33.240
maybe not as deadly as Jonestown,
but on the way, because it is

310
00:26:33.400 --> 00:26:37.880
deadly when people do not have the
proper heat or the proper amount of cooling,

311
00:26:38.359 --> 00:26:45.720
when they don't have the ability to
you know, support themselves in their

312
00:26:45.759 --> 00:26:49.559
family because there's no energy in the
strain on the grid prohibits them from having

313
00:26:49.640 --> 00:26:52.759
the energy that they need to live. I mean, we're in a modern

314
00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:59.440
situation here, and these climate cultists
want us to go back to the Caveman

315
00:26:59.640 --> 00:27:04.640
days. I believe, not just
Agregiian, but you know, as small

316
00:27:04.680 --> 00:27:12.359
a living space as possible, because
you are killing the planet. Did I

317
00:27:12.400 --> 00:27:15.880
assess that correctly? Isn't it a
cult? Pretty well? Yeah? And

318
00:27:15.920 --> 00:27:21.119
in developing nations to the situations is
different as well. We in the United

319
00:27:21.160 --> 00:27:25.079
States don't have much of a connection. But if you go to Central Africa,

320
00:27:25.119 --> 00:27:30.960
for example, many people don't have
electricity. The average temperature in the

321
00:27:30.000 --> 00:27:33.039
summer, and which is pretty long
because you're near the equator, is about

322
00:27:33.079 --> 00:27:38.599
ninety five fahrenheit the average high and
like four percent of the people have an

323
00:27:38.599 --> 00:27:44.559
air conditioner in Central Africa don't even
have a fan. They either don't have

324
00:27:44.599 --> 00:27:48.880
electricity or they don't have enough income
to have a fan. So the way

325
00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:53.920
to solve this is not by putting
up wind turbines and solar it's it's by

326
00:27:55.200 --> 00:28:02.839
getting them low cost natural gas and
coal and and nuclear and other reliable sources

327
00:28:02.880 --> 00:28:07.319
of energy. That's the way you
make people's lives better. So, yeah,

328
00:28:07.519 --> 00:28:14.000
we're way off base with all this
sort of thing, and I just

329
00:28:14.039 --> 00:28:18.079
need to have all this breakdown.
As my book is predicted. Not only

330
00:28:18.200 --> 00:28:23.000
is natural gas the least polluting form
of energy that we have available to us

331
00:28:23.319 --> 00:28:30.880
this day, Steve Gorham, but
we also have an abundance of natural gas

332
00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:33.319
in our own country, do we
not? We do it with the biggest

333
00:28:33.319 --> 00:28:37.319
producer natural gas in the world,
biggest producer petroleum in the world, biggest

334
00:28:37.359 --> 00:28:41.400
exporter of natural gas. We have
pipelines going to Mexico and even I think

335
00:28:41.400 --> 00:28:45.359
we have a net balance who are
sending some to Canada to although they have

336
00:28:45.400 --> 00:28:48.759
their own sources of supply. Nevertheless, the Biden administration wants to get rid

337
00:28:48.759 --> 00:28:53.039
of all that, wants to have
us all drive electric cars where the batteries

338
00:28:53.079 --> 00:29:00.480
come from China, wants us to
buy wind turbines and solar. Eighty percent

339
00:29:00.519 --> 00:29:04.759
of the world's solar panels come from
China as well, So we'll get rid

340
00:29:04.799 --> 00:29:10.279
of all this stuff which is low
cost that we build ourselves and start relying

341
00:29:10.319 --> 00:29:15.920
on China for everything. Policy.
No, if an individual had the wherewithal,

342
00:29:15.960 --> 00:29:22.039
had the ability to afford solar panels
on their home just to power their

343
00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:27.480
home, that might be a feasible
thing. If you could afford the solar

344
00:29:27.480 --> 00:29:34.440
panels and the maintenance thereof for just
an individual house. I mean, it's

345
00:29:34.440 --> 00:29:41.559
not that solar and wind are terrible
ideas, but en mass and getting rid

346
00:29:41.960 --> 00:29:48.039
of fossil fuels and anything that produces
CO two just for the sake of solar

347
00:29:48.079 --> 00:29:53.960
and wind, it's lunacy. It's
ridiculous. I mean, for an average

348
00:29:55.000 --> 00:30:00.920
person, individual homeowner who wanted to
power their home most of their devices with

349
00:30:02.079 --> 00:30:08.880
solar panels. That's that's fairly feasible
if you've got the money right, it

350
00:30:08.920 --> 00:30:15.319
can be done. It is expensive
though, typically, and the subsidies are

351
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:18.599
kind of going away for that.
California some other places have cut back.

352
00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:25.079
So they have a thing called net
metering in many states, maybe twenty five

353
00:30:25.079 --> 00:30:29.839
states or so. And what that
does is you're allowed to feed electricity into

354
00:30:29.880 --> 00:30:33.200
the grid and it pays you the
retail rate for electricity, which is a

355
00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:37.759
big subsidy because when anybody else generates
electricity, like a power plant or even

356
00:30:37.759 --> 00:30:42.359
a commercial solar system gets about,
it gets a wholesale rate about three or

357
00:30:42.359 --> 00:30:47.319
four or five cents of the kilo
what hour, not twelve, thirteen or

358
00:30:47.359 --> 00:30:52.119
fourteen. But some of these states
are not cutting back on net metering,

359
00:30:52.039 --> 00:30:56.920
so the you know, the value
tends to get to be lower. You

360
00:30:56.920 --> 00:31:00.759
know, if you live in Florida
or Arizona or somewhere you real sunny area,

361
00:31:02.720 --> 00:31:07.880
then those things can break even economically. But higher latitudes, Ohio,

362
00:31:07.960 --> 00:31:11.839
Illinois, you really need big state
subsidies, I think to make them feasible,

363
00:31:11.279 --> 00:31:15.160
and that's what we've got currently,
but maybe those won't be here for

364
00:31:15.240 --> 00:31:21.079
a while forever. We talked about
the price per kilowot hour of electricity around

365
00:31:21.119 --> 00:31:26.960
the country. It's averages fifteen cents
per kiloo kilowatt hour and no surprise at

366
00:31:26.960 --> 00:31:33.359
all the states where they've gone hog
wild on the green energy crap, the

367
00:31:33.400 --> 00:31:40.160
electricity prices are in the twenties and
mid twenties or more. And no surprise

368
00:31:40.319 --> 00:31:47.480
either that California. And it's not
because California is more populous than the states

369
00:31:47.519 --> 00:31:49.880
around them, that is true,
but it's not because of that, is

370
00:31:49.920 --> 00:31:55.680
it. It's because of the policies
that have been embraced by California, and

371
00:31:55.720 --> 00:32:00.920
the craziness continues. That's why their
electricity rates are so high. It really

372
00:32:00.000 --> 00:32:05.079
is green policies. And then the
other thing is the lack of forest management

373
00:32:05.119 --> 00:32:07.319
that they've had for many years,
and they've got these wildfires because they haven't

374
00:32:07.359 --> 00:32:12.359
taken care of their forests. They
haven't allowed controlled burns or natural burns,

375
00:32:13.319 --> 00:32:19.480
and the electric and the power companies
are really getting hammered. They have to

376
00:32:19.519 --> 00:32:25.359
pay very high levels for insurance,
very high levels for claims and suits because

377
00:32:25.079 --> 00:32:29.799
these forests tend to get blown around
a little and start fires. So a

378
00:32:29.799 --> 00:32:32.200
combination of those things, I think, But Yeah, California is about twenty

379
00:32:32.240 --> 00:32:36.519
six cents of killo what hour,
and it's going to go much much higher.

380
00:32:37.599 --> 00:32:42.359
They are requests in there right now
to raise that thirty percent. So

381
00:32:43.240 --> 00:32:45.319
by the way, they're only Hawaii
is the only state ahead of them.

382
00:32:46.160 --> 00:32:52.880
Well in the United States, everything
has to be imported in Hawaii, and

383
00:32:52.160 --> 00:32:57.240
you figure does the sunshines all the
time? So if they just covered up

384
00:32:57.559 --> 00:33:02.400
all those beautiful parks with solar paths, maybe maybe it would be even higher.

385
00:33:04.359 --> 00:33:08.440
So here's some storms. Yeah,
right, you mentioned California twenty six

386
00:33:08.599 --> 00:33:15.160
point seventeen cents per kilowat hour for
electricity right next door in Arizona, right

387
00:33:15.200 --> 00:33:22.000
next door thirteen point two since per
kilowat hour, Nevada thirteen point seventy nine,

388
00:33:22.480 --> 00:33:30.960
Oregon to the north of California eleven
point three five since per kilowat hour,

389
00:33:30.759 --> 00:33:36.279
and then you got California, you
know, which more than doubles any

390
00:33:36.279 --> 00:33:38.599
of those other states. And it
has nothing to do with the populations.

391
00:33:38.880 --> 00:33:45.599
It has to do with the administration
and the ridiculous forcing of these things that

392
00:33:46.359 --> 00:33:54.160
do not work efficiently and are expensive, so hurts. And by the way,

393
00:33:53.240 --> 00:34:00.400
the liberal states all have higher electricity
Oh, yeah, Massachusetts and all

394
00:34:00.440 --> 00:34:05.960
of that. It's crazy. Pennsylvania, Michigan. Yeah, they have because

395
00:34:06.039 --> 00:34:07.880
they've gotten rid of their coal.
By the way, a lot of states

396
00:34:07.880 --> 00:34:10.840
in the Midwest still use coal,
and we have cleaned it up quite a

397
00:34:10.880 --> 00:34:15.840
bit. They put scrubbers on the
tower so that the pollution levels are very

398
00:34:15.880 --> 00:34:20.679
low. But the states in the
Midwest use twenty thirty, forty fifty percent

399
00:34:20.679 --> 00:34:24.519
of their power from coal, and
it's it's very inexpensive. Big business is

400
00:34:24.559 --> 00:34:30.880
starting to get the message when it
affects the bottom line, it affects the

401
00:34:30.920 --> 00:34:36.519
bottom line. And Hurts has announced
they are selling a pretty good portion of

402
00:34:36.559 --> 00:34:44.159
the evs that they purchased from Tesla. Yeah, so business only cares about

403
00:34:44.159 --> 00:34:47.880
the bottom line ultimately, and that
should be the case. And it's just

404
00:34:49.000 --> 00:34:53.199
not making any sense for Hurts to
have this fleet of Tesla's. Is it

405
00:34:53.280 --> 00:34:57.480
Hurts committed by one hundred thousand.
I don't know if they received them all,

406
00:34:57.519 --> 00:35:00.280
but they're now saying they're selling thirty
thousand of them back, and they're

407
00:35:00.320 --> 00:35:06.159
saying the reason is the the insurance
and the and the I accident claim costs,

408
00:35:06.719 --> 00:35:07.920
which is a big part of it, I think. But There's another

409
00:35:08.000 --> 00:35:12.400
thing too. I think a lot
of people just don't want an ev when

410
00:35:12.440 --> 00:35:16.480
they go and rent. Uh.
There are just endless numbers of stories about

411
00:35:16.480 --> 00:35:22.400
people that got one and either it
wasn't charged or they had to they you

412
00:35:22.400 --> 00:35:24.599
know, people don't usually rent a
car to go three miles or ten miles.

413
00:35:24.639 --> 00:35:29.400
They want to go some distance and
then and then they find out,

414
00:35:29.480 --> 00:35:30.960
well, I can't get there on
the charge. I got to recharge.

415
00:35:31.320 --> 00:35:35.000
Then you got to charge a half
hour forty five minutes before you turn it

416
00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:38.320
back in. It's just not real
convenient. So uh, part of the

417
00:35:38.360 --> 00:35:42.920
reason they're getting rid of them is
people just don't want evs as a rental

418
00:35:43.000 --> 00:35:47.960
car. A large portion of the
population. Well, I understand why I

419
00:35:47.960 --> 00:35:52.800
don't want one either. Where can
listeners get your book, Steve Gorham?

420
00:35:53.239 --> 00:35:58.000
Yeah, and for my website Steve
Gorham g O R E H A M

421
00:35:58.079 --> 00:36:04.079
dot com and I say, I'm
assigned copy. They're also available on Amazon

422
00:36:04.119 --> 00:36:07.000
of course, the softcover book,
and then there are ebooks as well.

423
00:36:07.320 --> 00:36:12.679
All right, Green Breakdown is the
latest from Steve Gorham and my friend.

424
00:36:12.719 --> 00:36:15.519
Thank you so much, and for
gosh sakes, enjoy those warmer temperatures.

425
00:36:15.559 --> 00:36:21.840

live stream on the iHeartRadio app.

432
00:36:52.719 --> 00:36:55.119
Man, it's the new year,
and for many of us, it's a

433
00:36:55.119 --> 00:37:00.880
time of deciding. Our of this
nightcap for Tuesday night, January thirtieth,

434
00:37:00.960 --> 00:37:05.639
twenty twenty four on seven hundred w
l W. I'm Gary Jeff Walker UU.

435
00:37:06.440 --> 00:37:12.639
That's perfectly fine. Expecting guests.
David Ruben at any time, meadebjact.

436
00:37:14.039 --> 00:37:16.159
He's went on the program before,
former mayor of Shilo, Israel,

437
00:37:16.760 --> 00:37:22.039
and he is the president of the
Shilo Israel Children's Fund. He started that

438
00:37:22.639 --> 00:37:27.519
after he and his then three year
old son were attacked by terrorists in their

439
00:37:27.519 --> 00:37:34.440
home country of Israel and injured in
that attack, and of course that pales

440
00:37:34.480 --> 00:37:39.440
in comparison to October seventh, twenty
twenty three, when from Gaza came Hamas

441
00:37:39.559 --> 00:37:46.800
terrorists across the border into Israel and
slaughtered butchered people. I mean literally ripping

442
00:37:46.920 --> 00:37:52.599
the guts out of women that they
had just raped, or raped them afterwards.

443
00:37:52.599 --> 00:37:55.920
Who knows cutting the hands off babies, cutting babies out of women's stomachs.

444
00:37:58.119 --> 00:38:04.119
In all, the death toll from
the attack as of December of this

445
00:38:04.199 --> 00:38:07.840
past year, according to France twenty
four, six hundred and ninety five Israeli

446
00:38:08.119 --> 00:38:15.360
civilians killed on October seventh, including
thirty six kids, three hundred and seventy

447
00:38:15.360 --> 00:38:21.119
three security forces, and seventy one
foreigners, a total of eleven hundred and

448
00:38:21.159 --> 00:38:24.199
thirty nine. You realize that the
terrorist attack on nine to eleven in our

449
00:38:24.239 --> 00:38:29.559
country yielded almost three thousand dead,
so they're more than a third of the

450
00:38:29.599 --> 00:38:34.559
way to what we experienced as a
country from a terrorist attack. With October

451
00:38:34.599 --> 00:38:42.360
seventh and just the awful, awful
stench of anti Semitism and murder and death,

452
00:38:43.400 --> 00:38:50.559
Gaza has become a nest of death
cultists, and that's why Hamas had

453
00:38:50.599 --> 00:38:55.159
to be rooted out, and Israel
has done their due diligence to do that

454
00:38:55.320 --> 00:39:01.760
inside Gaza, limiting civilian casualties as
much as they possibly could. But you

455
00:39:01.800 --> 00:39:06.920
know what, when you're under attack, when you're at war, the rules

456
00:39:07.119 --> 00:39:10.920
of civility and decency often go out
the window because they have to, because

457
00:39:10.960 --> 00:39:16.320
Hamas had to be destroyed. Well. Hamas, of course, is funded

458
00:39:17.360 --> 00:39:22.039
by Iran, just like Hesbalah to
the north of Israel, funded by Iran

459
00:39:22.199 --> 00:39:28.480
and the Iyatolas and the Islamist death
cultists who are always shouting death to Israel,

460
00:39:28.599 --> 00:39:32.679
death to United States. And since
October seventh, since the United States

461
00:39:34.079 --> 00:39:39.079
has supported Israel in this fight,
since October seventeenth, there have been over

462
00:39:39.159 --> 00:39:45.840
one hundred and seventy rocket attacks on
our own troops who were there. Of

463
00:39:45.880 --> 00:39:50.519
course, over the weekend, the
attack that left three American service members dead

464
00:39:51.000 --> 00:39:57.880
at a base in Jordan from a
drone strike from islamis terrorist funded by Iran.

465
00:39:59.119 --> 00:40:01.960
What to do? What to do? Not a big fan of war,

466
00:40:02.679 --> 00:40:08.760
however, the Iranians have been at
war with our country and Israel since

467
00:40:08.880 --> 00:40:14.800
the Ayatola took over in nineteen seventy
nine. Let's not forget that. Don't

468
00:40:14.840 --> 00:40:16.880
ever forget history, because it will
come up to bite you in the rump

469
00:40:17.000 --> 00:40:23.159
every single time when you do,
and it is biting us and more acutely

470
00:40:23.199 --> 00:40:29.800
the Biden administration in the rump right
now after Joe says don't and the Iranians

471
00:40:29.840 --> 00:40:37.119
continue to do. That's not much
of a de terrence and throwing little strikes

472
00:40:37.199 --> 00:40:42.559
back at post where there's nobody really
there. And the Iranians, by the

473
00:40:42.599 --> 00:40:47.760
way, don't care how many of
their constituents, how many of their proxies

474
00:40:47.880 --> 00:40:51.559
die in this, and they don't
care how many missiles are blown up,

475
00:40:52.880 --> 00:40:58.239
as long as they can continue to
create chaos and cause the United States to

476
00:40:58.280 --> 00:41:00.400
look weak on the world stage.
We do, by the way, thanks

477
00:41:00.400 --> 00:41:07.440
to Joe Biden, this is going
to continue. What to do again?

478
00:41:08.039 --> 00:41:13.239
I think that the Iranians declared war
on us when they took over our embassy

479
00:41:13.239 --> 00:41:20.960
in nineteen seventy nine and took all
those hostages fifty two American hostages prisoner for

480
00:41:21.000 --> 00:41:25.480
four hundred and forty four days before
Ronald Reagan got them freed. But we

481
00:41:25.599 --> 00:41:30.239
didn't keep up the fight against Iran
and here they are back again. And

482
00:41:30.280 --> 00:41:36.519
when you have a week leader like
Joe Biden on the world stage, everybody

483
00:41:36.559 --> 00:41:40.079
is going to take advantage of that, most notably in this particular case Iran.

484
00:41:43.119 --> 00:41:46.400
So isn't it time, don't you
think it's time to light a little

485
00:41:46.400 --> 00:41:52.519
fire and or maybe do what Donald
Trump did with Iran. He killed Sulimane

486
00:41:53.159 --> 00:42:00.719
and he almost bankrupted them, And
when Biden took off, he gave him

487
00:42:00.719 --> 00:42:06.320
six billion dollars which is still supposedly
frozen in accounts, and cutter Iranian skin,

488
00:42:06.719 --> 00:42:09.719
and he let the oil from Iran
flow again to the rest of the

489
00:42:09.719 --> 00:42:16.559
world, especially with our own domestic
energy policies in this country. Iran is

490
00:42:17.119 --> 00:42:23.039
an enemy. They've declared themselves an
enemy of ours and of Israel, and

491
00:42:23.079 --> 00:42:30.519
they need to be dealt with,
not by some feeble old man who needs

492
00:42:30.559 --> 00:42:35.559
to be in hospice more than likely
telling them don't over and over again.

493
00:42:36.960 --> 00:42:39.559
So hopefully we will have a chance
to talk with David Rubin again in the

494
00:42:39.599 --> 00:42:45.480
near future. But just some thoughts
from the edge. And here's the other

495
00:42:45.519 --> 00:42:51.599
thing. The UNRAH, the UN
organization that was giving aid to Gaza.

496
00:42:51.719 --> 00:42:57.199
Now we know that more than a
dozen of those people employed by the UN

497
00:42:57.280 --> 00:43:01.079
were helping in the October seventh attack
on it Is. And we've been funding

498
00:43:01.119 --> 00:43:06.599
them like we fund every other arm
of the United Nations. And of course,

499
00:43:06.800 --> 00:43:13.679
plus the United Nations is no big
fan of Israel or the United States.

500
00:43:14.679 --> 00:43:20.280
And UN Women recently published the Gendered
Impact of the Crisis in Gaza Report,

501
00:43:20.320 --> 00:43:22.960
which makes the claim that among civilians
killed in the Gaza conflicts, seventy

502
00:43:22.960 --> 00:43:28.079
percent are women and children, but
a review of the actual numbers points to

503
00:43:28.119 --> 00:43:31.679
a different conclusion, suggesting the purpose
of UN Women and the document is to

504
00:43:31.679 --> 00:43:37.000
promote a false gender narrative, not
to encourage inform public debate. The UN

505
00:43:37.039 --> 00:43:45.760
has been all over everybody about publishing
and disseminating misinformation. This is a huge

506
00:43:45.800 --> 00:43:52.599
bit of misinformation coming from the UN
pot kettle black stuff inappropriately combining women and

507
00:43:52.719 --> 00:43:57.679
children. The UN Women report repeatedly
uses the phrase women and children as if

508
00:43:57.679 --> 00:44:02.719
the deaths of men and fathers does
not matter, failure to report actual numbers.

509
00:44:04.199 --> 00:44:09.519
The Palestinian Information Center recently published a
report regarding the twenty eighty nine hundred

510
00:44:09.519 --> 00:44:14.280
and fifty one civilian casualties seen during
the current war in Gaza. The PIC

511
00:44:14.440 --> 00:44:21.880
report states this toll includes twelve three
hundred and forty five children, six thousand,

512
00:44:22.000 --> 00:44:27.039
four hundred and seventy one women,
two hundred ninety five healthcare workers,

513
00:44:27.079 --> 00:44:31.639
forty one civil defense members, one
hundred and thirteen journalists. Based on those

514
00:44:31.719 --> 00:44:37.480
numbers, nine thousand, six hundred
and eighty six civilian men also died,

515
00:44:37.559 --> 00:44:43.440
not included in the UN report because
they have an agenda. So children represented

516
00:44:43.519 --> 00:44:47.039
forty two point six percent of all
civilian deaths in Gaza, followed by men

517
00:44:47.079 --> 00:44:53.000
at thirty three point five percent and
women twenty two point four But the UN

518
00:44:53.039 --> 00:45:00.880
Women Report never cite those numbers.
The UN is something we need to defund

519
00:45:01.480 --> 00:45:10.639
immediately. Not the police, but
the UN is a danger to your health

520
00:45:12.599 --> 00:45:21.360
and to my health and world peace. They're ridiculous and they're unnecessary. Let's

521
00:45:21.360 --> 00:45:27.119
defund the UN, and let's take
out Iran's oil platform island where all their

522
00:45:27.119 --> 00:45:31.400
oil goes through. If you bankrupt
Iran and you get rid of the UN,

523
00:45:34.320 --> 00:45:38.400
the world will live more peacefully.
Guaranteed food for thought. Don't eat

524
00:45:38.440 --> 00:45:44.960
too much. It's the night cap
and we continue on seven hundred. Wlw

525
00:45:45.159 --> 00:45:46.480
Willy is the one person I know
I can count on. My friend.

526
00:45:46.519 --> 00:45:50.280
I want you to know that I
Bill Cunningham am here for you. He

527
00:45:50.360 --> 00:45:52.760
makes me feel good to be an
American. Let me help ease your concerns,

528
00:45:52.840 --> 00:45:55.880
keep you informed, and raise your
spirits. I rather have my arm

529
00:45:55.960 --> 00:46:00.280
not off by beavers than miss Willie's
show. I'm here for you. All

530
00:46:00.320 --> 00:46:02.159
you have to do is listen to
me the great America. I want to

531
00:46:02.159 --> 00:46:07.679
be a great American just like Willie
Bill Cunningham. Tomorrow at twelve noon on

532
00:46:07.000 --> 00:46:13.639
seven hundred w l W. Do
you know how much one thousand dollars in

533
00:46:13.719 --> 00:46:21.679
coins ways Data Privacy Week holiday?
And you know what, I'm glad that

534
00:46:21.719 --> 00:46:24.920
you are. You're sober now.
I mean I'm glad that you didn't really

535
00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:30.000
ruin yourself because I mean that is
a big celebration every year, Data Privacy

536
00:46:30.239 --> 00:46:36.639
Safety Weeks. So Dave Hatter is
with us from Intrust to It or our

537
00:46:36.760 --> 00:46:42.400
tech guy on the night cap and
first and foremost, let's talk Facebook tonight

538
00:46:42.559 --> 00:46:46.280
and what Facebook has been doing or
meta or whatever you want to call it.

539
00:46:47.320 --> 00:46:50.400
Yeah, Gary, Jeff as always, thanks for having me on.

540
00:46:50.440 --> 00:46:53.199
And I like to think of myself
as the punks a Tony Dave or the

541
00:46:53.199 --> 00:46:58.519
Cincinnati Day that you will a privacy
you know, PUNKSATONI Phil pops out of

542
00:46:58.519 --> 00:47:02.199
his hole right for ground came today. I actually pop into a Faraday cage

543
00:47:02.199 --> 00:47:07.000
for all of Privacy week, so
I can maintain some privacy. You know.

544
00:47:07.119 --> 00:47:10.559
It's it's a beautiful thing. And
what happens if you see your shadow?

545
00:47:13.760 --> 00:47:16.239
Then I hopefully get another week in
the Faraday case, exposed to all

546
00:47:16.280 --> 00:47:20.159
of this insanity out here in the
real world, you know. And I

547
00:47:20.239 --> 00:47:24.239
just put another layer on my tinfoil
hat. So Facebook, Yeah, I

548
00:47:24.280 --> 00:47:29.320
think this is really interesting. So
just a reminder for folks scared. Yeah,

549
00:47:29.599 --> 00:47:34.599
Facebook's parent company is now Meta.
Meta owns Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp,

550
00:47:35.079 --> 00:47:38.480
Messenger, and you know other very
commonly used apps out there. And

551
00:47:38.599 --> 00:47:43.559
Consumer Reports had a recent article based
on a study they did, and I

552
00:47:43.639 --> 00:47:46.199
really want to encourage people to go
read about this for themselves. Don't just

553
00:47:46.199 --> 00:47:49.880
take my work for it. Now. Of course, all this is alleged

554
00:47:49.920 --> 00:47:52.480
that neither one of us get sued, right, But here's the headline from

555
00:47:52.480 --> 00:47:59.440
Consumer Reports. Each Facebook user is
monitored by thousands of companies. I didn't

556
00:47:59.480 --> 00:48:04.280
misspeak the thousands of companies. And
they also talk about how, for example,

557
00:48:04.360 --> 00:48:07.360
even if you're not a Facebook user, you may get sucked up in

558
00:48:07.440 --> 00:48:12.719
this because of this sort of background
ways that they collect information. So let

559
00:48:12.719 --> 00:48:16.199
me start out by saying, this
is a reminder for folks. Meta is

560
00:48:16.360 --> 00:48:22.199
one of several companies like Google and
others who thrive off the surveillance capitalism model.

561
00:48:22.679 --> 00:48:25.880
They don't make Facebook and Messenger and
what's happened all this stuff for free?

562
00:48:25.960 --> 00:48:30.360
You're paying with your data. You're
not the consumer or the customer in

563
00:48:30.400 --> 00:48:34.400
this case, you are the product, right, hence the name surveillance capitalism.

564
00:48:34.440 --> 00:48:37.559
They're giving you these tools, platforms, technologies, et cetera for free,

565
00:48:37.719 --> 00:48:43.000
quote unquote because they are able to
suck up enormous amounts of data about

566
00:48:43.000 --> 00:48:45.599
you and monetize that data. So
if you dig a little bit deeper into

567
00:48:45.599 --> 00:48:50.079
this story, it's truly fascinating what
they did, and I think extremely infightful

568
00:48:50.400 --> 00:48:52.800
because I have so many people coming
ay privacy. I don't care about privacy.

569
00:48:52.840 --> 00:48:58.039
I got nothing to hide, and
I don't think people really understand how

570
00:48:58.519 --> 00:49:02.000
invasive and per of this is.
So they say in this article, using

571
00:49:02.000 --> 00:49:06.519
a panel of seven hundred nine volunteers, you shared archives of their Facebook data,

572
00:49:06.559 --> 00:49:09.760
which anyone can go download for themselves
at any time. Consumer Reports found

573
00:49:09.760 --> 00:49:15.400
that a total of one hundred and
eighty six thousand, eight hundred and ninety

574
00:49:15.400 --> 00:49:21.599
two companies sent data about them to
Meta. One hundred eighty six thousand,

575
00:49:21.639 --> 00:49:25.000
eight hundred ninety two companies sent data
on average each participant in the study.

576
00:49:25.079 --> 00:49:29.039
So again this they claim, they
don't claim this is a scientific study.

577
00:49:29.280 --> 00:49:32.400
Seven hundred and nine people volunteered to
do this, But of the data that

578
00:49:32.480 --> 00:49:37.559
they downloaded from Facebook and provided the
consumer reports for this analysis, the average

579
00:49:37.599 --> 00:49:43.440
participant in the study had two thousand, two hundred and thirty companies who were

580
00:49:43.480 --> 00:49:46.320
getting data about them. Now just
think about that for a second, and

581
00:49:46.360 --> 00:49:51.360
then you know it's the number varied
significantly. Some panelists had over seven thousand

582
00:49:51.360 --> 00:49:58.000
companies providing their data to Facebook Splash
Meta. So what does this inferring is

583
00:49:58.039 --> 00:50:00.480
that, you know, and they
mentioned later in here, even if you

584
00:50:00.519 --> 00:50:04.599
don't have a Facebook account, Meta
might be getting data about you because of

585
00:50:04.599 --> 00:50:08.440
the way they collect this and their
voracious appetite for your data, which they

586
00:50:08.519 --> 00:50:15.679
then turn into money so you go
visit a website, dit, sporting goods,

587
00:50:15.719 --> 00:50:20.519
whatever, and because they have a
relationship with Meta and other companies too.

588
00:50:20.559 --> 00:50:22.880
This isn't just Meta, by the
way, okay, but Meta and

589
00:50:23.360 --> 00:50:29.280
you know through various tracking mechanisms,
browser fingerprinting, hidden pixels, that sort

590
00:50:29.280 --> 00:50:32.039
of thing, they're able to collect
data about you, which they then sincin

591
00:50:32.079 --> 00:50:37.440
MEETA. Obviously at some you know, there's some financial compensation provided, I'm

592
00:50:37.480 --> 00:50:40.880
sure in there, but they also
talk about how they have server to server

593
00:50:40.960 --> 00:50:45.280
tracking and other things that are more
difficult to pin down, and it makes

594
00:50:45.320 --> 00:50:51.800
this, you know, really difficult
for people to really understand how much data

595
00:50:52.159 --> 00:50:55.320
is actually being captured, you know, sold between these data breaker brokers and

596
00:50:55.400 --> 00:50:59.199
so forth. And I know we're
not out of time here, but I

597
00:50:59.199 --> 00:51:02.679
think this is fast. Another tidbit, one company appeared in ninety six percent

598
00:51:02.760 --> 00:51:07.280
of participants data. So of these
seven hundred and nine people and all the

599
00:51:07.320 --> 00:51:12.280
data they submitted for this analysis,
one company, Live Ramp, a data

600
00:51:12.280 --> 00:51:15.840
broker based in San Francisco, showed
up ninety six percent of the time that

601
00:51:15.960 --> 00:51:20.920
they looked at this data. And
they also mentioned Retailer's Home Depot, Macy's,

602
00:51:20.960 --> 00:51:23.760
Walmart. All were of the top
one hundred most frequently seen companies of

603
00:51:23.960 --> 00:51:30.159
people who are sending your data to
Facebook. But live live Ramp. Live

604
00:51:30.239 --> 00:51:35.039
Ramp then is kind of like a
collection pointed dissemination point for all the data.

605
00:51:35.079 --> 00:51:37.280
If they're on ninety six percent of
those, then they're sharing that with

606
00:51:37.559 --> 00:51:42.760
the other companies, right yeah,
and then he knows you know what else

607
00:51:42.800 --> 00:51:46.320
they're aggregating into your data and selling. I mean data brokers. There are

608
00:51:46.400 --> 00:51:50.400
hundreds of them, that's not thousands
of them in the country. And it's

609
00:51:50.440 --> 00:51:52.400
interesting when you look at the top
ten that they broke down as part of

610
00:51:52.440 --> 00:51:55.920
this study. Live Ramp is number
one. Axiom, which is a very

611
00:51:55.960 --> 00:52:00.679
well known data broker. To most
of these are or sort of not very

612
00:52:00.679 --> 00:52:04.800
well known, kind of hidden behind
the scenes companies making gigantic amounts of money

613
00:52:04.800 --> 00:52:07.000
off of this data. But Axiom
has been out, you know, in

614
00:52:07.079 --> 00:52:13.079
the public before for this type of
thing. Experience number three. The people

615
00:52:13.079 --> 00:52:15.719
should know the name Experience, right, one of the big credit bureaus.

616
00:52:15.639 --> 00:52:19.760
And then you know, you see
like Cone Depot is number seven, Amazon

617
00:52:19.840 --> 00:52:22.519
e Commerces number ten in this list. So it's a lot of the players

618
00:52:22.559 --> 00:52:25.360
we hear about all the time,
but then they go on and they talk

619
00:52:25.400 --> 00:52:30.199
about like what's in the data?
Right. Custom audiences allow advertisers to upload

620
00:52:30.239 --> 00:52:36.559
customer lists to meta, often including
identifiers like email addresses, mobile advertising IDs,

621
00:52:36.960 --> 00:52:39.320
these customers and so called lookalike audiences
made up of similar people can then

622
00:52:39.360 --> 00:52:44.719
be targeted with ads on metas platform. But when these data brokers are collecting

623
00:52:44.760 --> 00:52:47.440
this data, you know, who
knows again what they're aggregating from all these

624
00:52:47.440 --> 00:52:52.320
different sources and then turning around and
selling to other people, And they're making

625
00:52:52.800 --> 00:52:57.559
very large amounts of money doing it
mostly behind the scenes, mostly without people's

626
00:52:57.719 --> 00:53:01.480
actual understanding of how much of this
stuff is being sucked up out there.

627
00:53:01.480 --> 00:53:05.519
And I would just remind folks,
if you really want some insight into this,

628
00:53:06.760 --> 00:53:12.360
go take a look at the Apple
privacy label of common apps like Facebook

629
00:53:12.480 --> 00:53:15.599
or TikTok, and when you see
all of the information they can collect off

630
00:53:15.599 --> 00:53:19.440
your phone, it's usually pretty eye
opening for people. If you go to

631
00:53:19.519 --> 00:53:22.400
the Apple App Store, you can
look up the privacy label for any app

632
00:53:22.519 --> 00:53:25.760
something Apple mandates, and most people
when they see it the first time and

633
00:53:25.800 --> 00:53:30.199
start to connect the dots, especially
after you read article like this Gary Jeff,

634
00:53:30.599 --> 00:53:32.760
it's pretty eye opening and I think
for a lot of people quite hair

635
00:53:32.840 --> 00:53:36.960
raising. So you know, I
appreciate you taking the time to help me

636
00:53:37.000 --> 00:53:39.400
get the word out about this.
This Consumer reports are definitely worth your time,

637
00:53:39.440 --> 00:53:44.000
and they have an app called Permission
Slipt. I'd encourage people to check

638
00:53:44.039 --> 00:53:45.480
out. It's a way to not
only get a handle on this, but

639
00:53:45.599 --> 00:53:51.320
try to start to scrape back some
of your privacy. Well, it's about

640
00:53:51.400 --> 00:53:54.320
time, and we are running out
of time, Dave, but real quickly.

641
00:53:54.719 --> 00:54:00.559
This is something we found out from
testimony from actual Facebook people in the

642
00:54:00.639 --> 00:54:07.400
past. Meta, the parent company
of Facebook, knowingly developed platforms to hook

643
00:54:07.519 --> 00:54:15.559
kids into this to basically it's digital
crack. Yeah, and I while there

644
00:54:15.599 --> 00:54:20.480
is a lawsuit out there filed by
thirty three attorney generals. Again this all

645
00:54:20.519 --> 00:54:29.280
alleged, right, you know,
they threw whistleblowers, public release information,

646
00:54:29.360 --> 00:54:32.800
et cetera. This lawsuit has been
file claiming that basically Facebook was well aware

647
00:54:34.360 --> 00:54:39.440
that their platforms are designed to be
extremely sticky to get people on their you

648
00:54:39.480 --> 00:54:43.679
know, using them as long as
possible, keep people using them, et

649
00:54:43.719 --> 00:54:47.440
cetera, and that you know,
they're aware of the harm this is causing

650
00:54:47.480 --> 00:54:52.920
to young people and you know,
basically have sort of turned a blind eye

651
00:54:52.960 --> 00:54:58.400
to it. There's a whistle famous
whistleblower who you know, basically absconded with

652
00:54:58.519 --> 00:55:00.719
thousands of documents that were least I'm
drawing a blank on her name at the

653
00:55:00.719 --> 00:55:05.599
moment. But it's pretty interesting because
while you know, Facebook is in the

654
00:55:05.639 --> 00:55:09.800
cross met us slash Facebook is in
the crosshairs of this particular situation. You

655
00:55:09.840 --> 00:55:15.440
know. It's most of these social
media platforms ultimately have a similar goal,

656
00:55:15.440 --> 00:55:19.559
which is to get you on it
and to get you using it as long

657
00:55:19.599 --> 00:55:23.079
as possible, you know, all
the time, because they are collecting enormous

658
00:55:23.119 --> 00:55:27.320
amounts of data about you, as
we just said, and then using it

659
00:55:27.360 --> 00:55:29.840
to make enormous amounts of money.
You know, if you go look at

660
00:55:29.840 --> 00:55:34.920
the amount of money the Facebook slash
Meta brings in from these so called free

661
00:55:34.960 --> 00:55:37.159
services, it's, you know,
it's in billions of dollars you've had.

662
00:55:37.639 --> 00:55:40.840
Dave Heater, thank you as always
for joining us on the Nightcap and you

be aware of. Dave Hatter with
us on the Nightcap on seven hundred Wlwe

welcome back to the nightcat find seven

667
00:56:04.920 --> 00:56:07.519
chair getting ready to talk to somebody
I've been looking forward to, really for

668
00:56:08.000 --> 00:56:13.760
ever since i saw the pitch.
Daniel Street is his name. He's an

669
00:56:13.800 --> 00:56:19.320
attorney and author over two decades of
experience handling civil litigation in state and federal

670
00:56:19.320 --> 00:56:23.760
court. Is a three volume book
series called Fake News Exposed about Trump,

671
00:56:24.480 --> 00:56:29.760
and he regularly appears on Substack and
the Latest News. First Off, Daniel

672
00:56:29.760 --> 00:56:34.440
Street. Good evening, and welcome
to the show. So thank you for

673
00:56:34.480 --> 00:56:39.159
having me on. Yes, glad, And the latest fake news you say

674
00:56:40.360 --> 00:56:46.639
is in this verdict against Donald Trump
in New York Civil Court, the Egene

675
00:56:46.719 --> 00:56:52.360
Carol defamation suit, where Trump was
ordered to pay eighty three million dollars,

676
00:56:52.760 --> 00:56:59.719
most of that impunitive damages for defaming
Carroll by calling her a liar about the

677
00:57:00.079 --> 00:57:08.559
supposed the alleged sexual assault years ago
in Bergdorf's bathroom or a changing room or

678
00:57:08.559 --> 00:57:15.039
whatever where she said this occurred.
First and foremost, Egene Carroll is no

679
00:57:15.280 --> 00:57:22.559
stranger to accusing and sometimes we found
out falsely men of sexually abusing her.

680
00:57:22.239 --> 00:57:28.440
I was gonna say that it kind
of reminds me back during the Kavanaugh trial

681
00:57:29.280 --> 00:57:34.440
of the woman they tried to say
that the Spike Bowl was punched and women

682
00:57:34.480 --> 00:57:39.159
were getting raped by Matt Kavanaugh and
his buddies, his college buddies, because

683
00:57:39.199 --> 00:57:44.519
they were leading women to the Spike
punch Bowl and was at she was at

684
00:57:44.559 --> 00:57:46.960
three or four of those parties.
And if she knew women were getting raped,

685
00:57:47.079 --> 00:57:50.320
was she standing in line to get
raped or what? You know,

686
00:57:50.360 --> 00:57:53.360
what was happening here. So you
kind of wonder about the motivation of Egen

687
00:57:53.480 --> 00:57:59.480
Carrol other than she's a Trump hater
to make the original claim and to file

688
00:57:59.559 --> 00:58:06.079
this defntion lawsuit, don't you.
Yeah. And I think an important thing

689
00:58:06.119 --> 00:58:12.519
for people to remember about Eging Carroll
is she has no corroborating evidence of any

690
00:58:12.599 --> 00:58:16.039
kind. She doesn't have a receipt
from the stores, she doesn't have a

691
00:58:16.079 --> 00:58:22.920
contemporaneous witness, she doesn't have any
security videos, she doesn't have an itinerary

692
00:58:22.719 --> 00:58:27.639
proving that she or anybody else is
traveling on that day. So anything that

693
00:58:27.679 --> 00:58:31.400
will to substantiate the claim she has
none. I mean none as a zero,

694
00:58:32.079 --> 00:58:40.119
and so it is it's just incredibly
finn Yeah, I mean on the

695
00:58:40.159 --> 00:58:45.280
evidentiary say. And by the way, Donald Trump was never, never convicted

696
00:58:45.519 --> 00:58:52.400
of sexually assaulting Eging Carroll. She
just said so and then filed suit when

697
00:58:52.480 --> 00:58:55.440
Donald Trump said she lied. Is
that basically the way this all came down

698
00:58:55.480 --> 00:59:02.400
in the first place, right,
Well, that's not a bad summary of

699
00:59:02.440 --> 00:59:10.760
it. It's actually one of the
most incredibly complicated procedurally. The procedural posture

700
00:59:10.800 --> 00:59:15.599
in this case is incredibly complicated.
And you know, it started out in

701
00:59:15.639 --> 00:59:22.679
twenty nineteen as a purely a state
law defamation suit that Carroll filed in New

702
00:59:22.760 --> 00:59:28.599
York State court, and it got
removed to federal court by President Trump and

703
00:59:28.639 --> 00:59:32.800
the federal government. And I can
explain how that works. But basically with

704
00:59:34.360 --> 00:59:37.039
Trump and the government saying, hey, look, anything she's accusing me of

705
00:59:37.159 --> 00:59:45.760
this was done in connection with my
official duties, and therefore the United States

706
00:59:45.800 --> 00:59:49.840
Government has to be substituted as a
party defendant and has to be removed to

707
00:59:49.880 --> 00:59:55.599
federal court. And that issue just
Caplin ruled against the district judge, and

708
00:59:55.639 --> 01:00:00.000
federal court ruled against the government on
that and went up on the peace.

709
01:00:00.239 --> 01:00:05.400
And in the interim, while that
issue was on appeal, the State of

710
01:00:05.440 --> 01:00:14.320
New York passed the statute that revived
of fale prescribed or timed out sex offense

711
01:00:14.360 --> 01:00:20.119
claims or sexual harassment or sexual assault
claims, and then she came back and

712
01:00:20.280 --> 01:00:24.199
added that claim in federal court in
twenty twenty two. I believe it was.

713
01:00:24.440 --> 01:00:27.719
Yeah, that's when, that's when
the New York that's when the New

714
01:00:27.800 --> 01:00:32.400
York law was juiced in twenty twenty
two. So that opened the door for

715
01:00:32.440 --> 01:00:37.679
her to do what she did.
That's right, and so any claims she

716
01:00:37.719 --> 01:00:42.719
had. You know, this is
another issue with her. The sufficiency of

717
01:00:42.719 --> 01:00:46.519
her evidence is that her own testimony
is contradictory. She said in the past

718
01:00:46.599 --> 01:00:51.159
that this happened in nineteen ninety four, then she said nineteen ninety five,

719
01:00:51.239 --> 01:00:54.960
announced she's just like mid nineteen ninety
She's not really sure. And so that

720
01:00:55.000 --> 01:01:00.119
claim was lost due to the passage
of time, due to the status to

721
01:01:00.199 --> 01:01:04.239
the limitations in New York. And
then in twenty twenty two, the State

722
01:01:04.280 --> 01:01:07.719
of New York, the New York
legislature passed this statute that revives certain of

723
01:01:07.719 --> 01:01:15.159
these claims for people who over the
age eighteen whose allegations satisfy particular statute in

724
01:01:15.199 --> 01:01:19.719
the New York Penal Code, which
is Section one thirty, and that gave

725
01:01:19.760 --> 01:01:22.440
all those people twelve months to file
suit and of course, he's one of

726
01:01:22.480 --> 01:01:24.760
the people who had lobbied for the
law. In fact, I think it

727
01:01:24.840 --> 01:01:30.920
was probably drafted for her. I
can't prove that just yet, and filed

728
01:01:30.920 --> 01:01:37.440
suit. And that's that's where this
came from. So the original we started

729
01:01:37.480 --> 01:01:42.000
in federal court after being removed from
statehourt on pure defamation claims from twenty nineteen.

730
01:01:42.880 --> 01:01:50.800
All right, So, in any
regard, this judgment for any three

731
01:01:50.800 --> 01:01:54.639
point three million dollars against Donald Trump
is now obviously going to be appealed by

732
01:01:54.679 --> 01:01:59.599
Trump's attorneys. Do you think they've
got a good leg to stand on when

733
01:01:59.599 --> 01:02:06.719
they look at the conflict of interest
between the judge in the case and eging

734
01:02:06.880 --> 01:02:09.039
Carroll and all of the rest.
Tell me how that house of cards could

735
01:02:09.039 --> 01:02:14.800
fall in very easily on appeal,
Daniel, Sure. And the thing to

736
01:02:14.880 --> 01:02:20.960
keep in mind is the original judgment
that where the jury actually found that was

737
01:02:21.000 --> 01:02:22.960
in May twenty twenty three when the
first trial was held. The one most

738
01:02:23.039 --> 01:02:27.760
recently is the second trial. That
trial, I mean, that case is

739
01:02:27.760 --> 01:02:31.599
on appeal right now and hasn't been
ruled on yet. That's how quickly all

740
01:02:31.639 --> 01:02:37.360
of this came down, So the
whole house of cards could get pulled out

741
01:02:37.480 --> 01:02:40.800
from under the eging Carroll's feet,
and I could explain how that can happen.

742
01:02:40.840 --> 01:02:45.480
There's a number of different ways.
There are a number of appealable issues

743
01:02:45.599 --> 01:02:50.079
with the most recent judgment of the
one to eighty three million dollars. I

744
01:02:50.079 --> 01:02:53.280
think there's going to be some post
trial motion practice on that to knock it

745
01:02:53.320 --> 01:03:00.239
down, to cut it in various
different ways, and I can explain that

746
01:03:00.320 --> 01:03:04.519
intil some of it gets kind of
This case involves a lot of hyper technical

747
01:03:05.119 --> 01:03:12.039
legal issues, but I think the
big ticket items here are what people need

748
01:03:12.079 --> 01:03:15.599
to understand. When the first trial
was held, remember that suit was filed

749
01:03:15.599 --> 01:03:20.320
over the twenty nineteen statements when EG
and Carrol came out and claimed all this

750
01:03:20.400 --> 01:03:25.239
happened and President Trump made some strong
statements to the effect that didn't happen,

751
01:03:25.320 --> 01:03:30.360
and he know knows she talking about
and things like that. That was the

752
01:03:30.400 --> 01:03:35.079
original suit. Then she added the
rape claims, and then the cap went

753
01:03:35.159 --> 01:03:38.800
to trial on the rape claims.
But then she added in twenty twenty two,

754
01:03:38.960 --> 01:03:43.400
after President Trump was no longer president, she added more defamation claims.

755
01:03:43.719 --> 01:03:47.079
So the last defamation claims, the
twenty twenty two claims, and the rape

756
01:03:47.119 --> 01:03:51.760
claim went to trial in made of
twenty twenty three, and then most recently,

757
01:03:51.840 --> 01:03:55.480
the twenty nineteen defamation claims went to
trial. So what we actually just

758
01:03:55.519 --> 01:04:00.119
got through with was the trial on
the twenty nineteen claims, which were the

759
01:04:00.239 --> 01:04:05.519
very first ones ever found. Got
One of the issues that the judge did

760
01:04:05.559 --> 01:04:13.119
here was limit the evidence that could
be entered by Trump on the twenty nineteen

761
01:04:13.159 --> 01:04:18.239
defamation claims on the on the grounds
of what is known as collateral estomple.

762
01:04:18.280 --> 01:04:20.320
And the judge was like, hey, look, we already ruled on that,

763
01:04:20.360 --> 01:04:24.159
but they haven't. The jury hadn't
ruled on that because they hadn't even

764
01:04:24.239 --> 01:04:30.079
heard the twenty nineteen defamation claims.
Now, some of the underlying issues have

765
01:04:30.079 --> 01:04:34.679
been ruled on. But keep this
in mind. If the Court of Appeal

766
01:04:34.920 --> 01:04:39.880
affirms the dismissal of the government and
say the government couldn't been part of this

767
01:04:40.000 --> 01:04:44.880
case, then once you have is
a federal court exercising what is known what

768
01:04:45.039 --> 01:04:48.360
used to be called pendent or ancillary
jurisdiction is now called supplemental jurisdiction, a

769
01:04:48.440 --> 01:04:53.400
case over which there would otherwise be
no subject matter jurisdiction in federal court.

770
01:04:54.199 --> 01:04:58.360
Okay, because The purpose behind it
being removed from state court was because the

771
01:04:58.440 --> 01:05:00.599
US government says, hey, he
should be the defendant here. This is

772
01:05:00.599 --> 01:05:04.840
the president action in the course of
the president's job. If that's wrong,

773
01:05:05.159 --> 01:05:09.599
this case really should have never been
in federal court. You should potentially have

774
01:05:09.760 --> 01:05:14.639
the Court of Appeal to kick the
whole thing out, wipe the slate,

775
01:05:14.719 --> 01:05:17.440
queen, send them back a state
court. On substack. You have this

776
01:05:18.000 --> 01:05:28.039
continual fake news exposed Daniel lar Street's
fake news exposed. Has there ever been

777
01:05:28.440 --> 01:05:33.159
a president, sitting or former who
has been subjected to more fake news than

778
01:05:33.199 --> 01:05:41.760
Donald Trump? And Kenyons cite some
of the most egregious examples. Dan Sure,

779
01:05:41.920 --> 01:05:48.920
yeah. Number one, No,
I don't think anyone in the history

780
01:05:48.960 --> 01:05:54.199
of history has been the subject of
more fake news than Donald J. Trump.

781
01:05:54.960 --> 01:05:58.280
And you know, there's just a
litany of it. I think.

782
01:05:58.639 --> 01:06:01.840
Let me highlight some of the worst
lives and misinformation campaigns that have been wasting

783
01:06:01.880 --> 01:06:08.159
against President Trump. Number one is
the Russia collusion hoax. That's what I

784
01:06:08.239 --> 01:06:12.039
call it, is the Russia collusion
hoax because it was a hoax and it

785
01:06:12.159 --> 01:06:18.920
was concocted in large part by contractors
working for the Hillary Clinton campaign and Democrat

786
01:06:19.039 --> 01:06:26.360
National Committee. They hired Glinn Simpsons
who in turned his outfit Confusion GPS,

787
01:06:26.400 --> 01:06:31.880
and then he subbed out the nastiest
bit of it to a former British intelligence

788
01:06:31.880 --> 01:06:39.679
officer, nam Christopher Steele. So
all of that turned out to be the

789
01:06:39.719 --> 01:06:44.760
worst form of misinformation, and it
was in large parts bought and paid for

790
01:06:44.960 --> 01:06:51.880
by the Clinton campaign and Democrat National
Committee. So for years, literally President

791
01:06:51.920 --> 01:07:02.039
Trump's administration was hamstrung by illegitimate investigation
into non existent collusion with Russia that was

792
01:07:02.119 --> 01:07:08.880
really based on uh, information and
misinformation and malinformation bought and pagroll a by

793
01:07:08.960 --> 01:07:14.679
the Democrats. Well, they certainly
had a lot of help from mainstream media

794
01:07:15.000 --> 01:07:23.119
who reiterated that that whole mantra over
and over again every day about uh,

795
01:07:23.280 --> 01:07:27.840
well they did and they yeah.
They also had a lot of help from

796
01:07:27.880 --> 01:07:32.880
the federal government, from federal law
enforcement and federal intelligence community. So it

797
01:07:32.920 --> 01:07:38.920
was all hands on deck, let's
do whatever we can to hinder and undermine

798
01:07:39.079 --> 01:07:44.480
this president and his administration from implementing
policy and uh, and that's what it

799
01:07:44.519 --> 01:07:46.239
was all about. That So it
was designed to do and all probability and

800
01:07:46.280 --> 01:07:51.760
that's what the effect was. But
yeah, the you know, the news

801
01:07:51.840 --> 01:07:57.719
media, even to this day,
most of the legacy media won't report truthfully

802
01:07:57.760 --> 01:08:01.639
about the Russian collusion hoax. Hey
there's still not and it's been totally debunked.

803
01:08:02.079 --> 01:08:05.000
I mean over and over and over
again, reams and reams of real

804
01:08:05.039 --> 01:08:10.599
evidence showing that none of this ever
happened and none of it was real.

805
01:08:11.840 --> 01:08:17.039
So what about And it's amazing to
me that President Trump got as much done

806
01:08:17.119 --> 01:08:21.720
in his four years as he did
with all of that noise and then COVID

807
01:08:21.840 --> 01:08:28.359
on top of it. You're right, and you know, the thing to

808
01:08:28.439 --> 01:08:32.479
keep in mind too, he was
also battling the GOP establishment yep, his

809
01:08:32.680 --> 01:08:39.279
entire his entire term. I think
that if you look back at what Donald

810
01:08:39.319 --> 01:08:43.640
Trump and his administration were able to
accomplish in the four years that he was

811
01:08:43.680 --> 01:08:46.439
an office, it as a testimony
to the man's ability to get things done.

812
01:08:46.640 --> 01:08:53.479
It just really is, because he
had an incredible amount of obstacles at

813
01:08:53.520 --> 01:08:58.760
every turnery and people who are supposed
to be on his team who are undermining

814
01:08:58.840 --> 01:09:02.359
him and undermining him administration. I
just think that the man is really remarkable

815
01:09:02.399 --> 01:09:08.279
in that respect. And if he
could get another four years, they're just

816
01:09:08.319 --> 01:09:11.399
going to cook up more information,
but they'll never be that successful again.

817
01:09:11.840 --> 01:09:15.359
So there's no telling what he'll be
able to accomplish. Well, there was

818
01:09:15.399 --> 01:09:19.119
that narrative to when he want to
talk about fake news about Donald Trump that

819
01:09:20.640 --> 01:09:25.720
he was while he was in office
as president, he was using that position

820
01:09:26.279 --> 01:09:30.439
to enrich himself and his companies.
When I remember the table of all of

821
01:09:30.439 --> 01:09:33.399
the doc you remember the table with
all the documents and Donald Trump's there,

822
01:09:33.399 --> 01:09:39.039
and that said, this is what
I'm taking my hands off of. So

823
01:09:39.119 --> 01:09:43.039
there's no conflict of interest with me
personally. I mean, I want to

824
01:09:43.039 --> 01:09:48.399
talk about one of the most transparent
guys in elected office when it came to

825
01:09:48.920 --> 01:09:55.760
not taking advantage of his elected office. And we've seen what's happened, you

826
01:09:55.800 --> 01:10:01.560
know, with both House Democrats and
Republicans and Senate Democrat Republicans who are up

827
01:10:01.560 --> 01:10:08.199
to their over their heads in conflicts
of interest when it came to enriching them.

828
01:10:08.520 --> 01:10:12.199
Donald Trump never did that. He
donated all of his salary as president

829
01:10:13.399 --> 01:10:16.680
to charities. Every time he got
paid, the money went right out the

830
01:10:16.680 --> 01:10:18.600
door. And you say, well
that's you know, it's just out of

831
01:10:18.640 --> 01:10:23.840
his abundance because he's a billionaire.
He's doing that. It's a big show.

832
01:10:24.680 --> 01:10:27.920
But the fact of the matter is
Donald Trump did not, I believe,

833
01:10:28.720 --> 01:10:32.119
want to run for president, become
president, and now wants to become

834
01:10:32.159 --> 01:10:39.640
president again for his own benefit.
I just don't see any reason why anyone

835
01:10:39.720 --> 01:10:43.119
would do that unless they just love
this country and know that we need a

836
01:10:43.239 --> 01:10:50.079
change at the top. I agree. And in fact, you know,

837
01:10:51.359 --> 01:10:57.399
running for office and holding office actually
cost President Trump a lot of money,

838
01:10:57.439 --> 01:11:01.279
and not just to legal, legal
fees and things like that, but you

839
01:11:01.319 --> 01:11:06.479
know, turning over the day to
day operations of his companies to other people

840
01:11:09.640 --> 01:11:14.000
did not enhance, you know,
his wealth. I mean, there's been

841
01:11:14.039 --> 01:11:18.039
a number of studies of President Trump's
wealth, but before twenty sixteen and currently,

842
01:11:18.880 --> 01:11:25.439
and he took a big hit in
his network by not running his companies

843
01:11:25.479 --> 01:11:30.119
for four years. And so I
think, you know, there's actually a

844
01:11:30.199 --> 01:11:34.399
chapter in one of my books,
it's the volume one of the Fate News

845
01:11:34.399 --> 01:11:40.039
exposed about Trump's series, where you
know, the fake news media says nobody's

846
01:11:40.079 --> 01:11:43.960
profited off the presidency like Trump,
and you know, and that's just not

847
01:11:44.159 --> 01:11:48.199
true, and in fact, no
one has profited off the presidency like the

848
01:11:48.239 --> 01:11:55.479
Clintons, and the close second to
them are the Bombs and President Trump is

849
01:11:55.479 --> 01:12:01.159
a very very distant third behind those
two. And you know they've always got

850
01:12:01.159 --> 01:12:05.560
a sixty five million dollar advance for
a book. I mean that anybody else

851
01:12:05.600 --> 01:12:13.520
would probably wound up being investigated by
the federal government and federal law enforcement over

852
01:12:13.640 --> 01:12:16.800
sixty five million dollar book advanta.
I mean, how much was your book

853
01:12:16.800 --> 01:12:26.000
advancement? Daniel? It wasn't club
out the ospite of an advance. You

854
01:12:26.039 --> 01:12:30.760
had to pay to get it published, right, Daniel R. Street.

855
01:12:30.880 --> 01:12:36.479
Fake news exposed about Trump on substack
and there's a three book series. And

856
01:12:36.520 --> 01:12:41.520
thank you for taking some time tonight
to talk with us. The latest fake

857
01:12:41.640 --> 01:12:45.560
news, which is this eighty three
point three million dollars settlement against Donald Trump

858
01:12:45.600 --> 01:12:51.279
by in favor of EG and Carroll, which will again be on appeal maybe

859
01:12:51.359 --> 01:12:56.239
until after the election, who knows. Dan, thanks for taking the time

860
01:12:56.279 --> 01:12:59.640
tonight. Thank you, thank you
for having me on. I'll be glad

861
01:12:59.680 --> 01:13:02.000
to do it. You bet.
Another hour of the Nightcap just ahead on

862
01:13:02.079 --> 01:13:08.359
seven hundred WLW. Let's talk about
Scott's loan. When do you listen?

863
01:13:08.479 --> 01:13:11.199
I like to listen while I'm walking
the dog that sounds like fun. I

864
01:13:11.319 --> 01:13:13.560
like to listen to his show while
I'm in the steam room. Oh,

865
01:13:13.600 --> 01:13:15.760
I might try that one. I
like to listen to a show while I'm

866
01:13:15.800 --> 01:13:17.640
at work because it drowns out the
sound of my idiot boss. Not a

867
01:13:17.640 --> 01:13:20.960
bad idea. I listened to his
podcast when my husband is watching one of

868
01:13:20.960 --> 01:13:26.520
those stupid Star Wars movies. I
guess anytime is the right time for Sloaney.

869
01:13:26.640 --> 01:13:30.640
You got that right. Scott's Loan
tomorrow morning at nine on seven hundred

870
01:13:30.800 --> 01:13:34.920
WLW, and check out his podcast
on the free iHeartRadio app teching procy policy

871
01:13:34.920 --> 01:13:45.760
in terms of Condition. Welcome into
another hour of list nightcaps on seven hundred

872
01:13:45.920 --> 01:13:49.199
w LW. Time to lighten up
a little bit. You know, the

873
01:13:49.279 --> 01:13:56.319
news is so bad, and sometimes
it's not really even news. But you

874
01:13:56.359 --> 01:13:59.800
know what, every once in a
while, you just gotta take a step

875
01:14:00.760 --> 01:14:03.239
and enjoy good friends, the conversation
with good friends, you know, like

876
01:14:03.880 --> 01:14:10.319
say, this guy the fer Ball
who claims Andy Furman actually claims that I'm

877
01:14:10.359 --> 01:14:13.239
his only friend. I don't believe
that at all. He's got lots of

878
01:14:13.279 --> 01:14:15.720
friends at the point arc He's got
friends who read him in the Brooklyn Daily

879
01:14:15.800 --> 01:14:20.239
Eagle. He's got friends who read
him online in the nk Y Tribune,

880
01:14:20.680 --> 01:14:25.000
and he's got all kinds of friends, as Strauss tobacconists, in fact,

881
01:14:25.039 --> 01:14:28.199
I don't know what he needs me
for it all, but I think he's

882
01:14:28.239 --> 01:14:31.399
an invaluable resource as a friend and
a guest, and that's why he is

883
01:14:31.479 --> 01:14:36.239
back once again. Furball, How
are you great? You know my favorite

884
01:14:36.279 --> 01:14:39.800
theme song? You know, my
favorite song is by Harold Melvin and the

885
01:14:39.800 --> 01:14:43.439
Blue Notes. Where are all My
Friends? That's my song, Where are

886
01:14:43.640 --> 01:14:46.199
my Friends? Harold Melvin and the
Blue Notes. Well, I would recommend

887
01:14:46.199 --> 01:14:50.479
to you then, and you're if
you're listening in that vein, I would

888
01:14:50.479 --> 01:14:55.000
recommend to you if you don't know
me by now, you will never.

889
01:14:55.279 --> 01:15:00.560
And I would recommend cut back and
up yours with bad luck? What about

890
01:15:00.560 --> 01:15:04.159
the love I lost? That's a
great sort, it really is. I

891
01:15:04.239 --> 01:15:08.199
like her, give me a favorite. On Saturday when you talk to the

892
01:15:08.279 --> 01:15:13.319
music professor, bring up Harold Meldon
the Blue Notes just out without even warning

893
01:15:13.399 --> 01:15:16.960
him that I'm gonna So he can't
like write notes down about his personal experiences,

894
01:15:17.159 --> 01:15:20.600
So I should just I should just
surprise him with it. Right,

895
01:15:20.800 --> 01:15:24.520
No, you could try it.
So I'm sure you do a little prepping

896
01:15:24.560 --> 01:15:27.840
with him, and I'm honest that. But he's probably met them. Oh,

897
01:15:27.880 --> 01:15:31.079
I'm sure he has. He's met
everybody, anybody, anybody that was

898
01:15:31.119 --> 01:15:36.640
a star before nineteen seventy five.
Jim Lebarba knows and has probably sat down

899
01:15:36.680 --> 01:15:41.760
with them for extended conversations or had
parties. Okay, he's the party with

900
01:15:41.840 --> 01:15:45.760
Jerry Lee Lewis. For God's sake, if they ask kissing with Jim Lebarba,

901
01:15:45.760 --> 01:15:47.000
I mean, you talk to him
on Saturday. This is my turn.

902
01:15:47.079 --> 01:15:49.359
Now, this is my thing.
You're the one who brought him up.

903
01:15:50.359 --> 01:15:53.880
I just said, Harold Meldon boom, but a bang and that's it.

904
01:15:56.119 --> 01:16:00.359
You said music biography. Okay,
he has enough time said it.

905
01:16:00.640 --> 01:16:03.439
You know, I've got something that
really and truly is is a news story,

906
01:16:03.479 --> 01:16:06.920
but no one's really touching it.
Okay. That is Friday is Groundhog's

907
01:16:08.000 --> 01:16:10.880
Day. Yeah, okay, I
think I know. Hold on, Andy,

908
01:16:11.079 --> 01:16:15.359
I believe everyone will be covering Groundhog
Day like they do every year.

909
01:16:15.880 --> 01:16:20.000
There are wanna be There are want
to be Bill Murray's and Andy McDowell's all

910
01:16:20.119 --> 01:16:28.479
over the country that want to go
to wherever Poxatani up to Gobbler's knob to

911
01:16:28.520 --> 01:16:31.600
see the little furry rat come out
of his hole. Right, that's Groundhog's

912
01:16:31.640 --> 01:16:36.800
there. But there's a story connected
with ground Dog's day. Sweet Peta feal

913
01:16:36.840 --> 01:16:44.199
good friends that Peta expressed concerns that
the groundhog is being cruelly exploited for publicity.

914
01:16:44.319 --> 01:16:47.039
Are you talking about having about and
hold on? Are you talking about

915
01:16:47.039 --> 01:16:51.600
please eat tasty animals? Is that
what you mean by Peter? Could very

916
01:16:51.600 --> 01:16:55.479
well be really, but I will
tell you this much what they want to

917
01:16:55.479 --> 01:17:00.239
do is replace the groundhog with a
coin flip. I mean, you know

918
01:17:00.279 --> 01:17:04.720
what, I credit them. I
credit Peter because they're ingenious, working and

919
01:17:04.840 --> 01:17:10.680
morving their way into getting publicity.
But I guess it's news. I guess

920
01:17:10.680 --> 01:17:15.439
it is. But I wish some
enterprising news editor or news director of a

921
01:17:15.520 --> 01:17:19.000
TV or newspaper saying, you know
what, God bless you, you're not

922
01:17:19.039 --> 01:17:24.479
getting any space or airtime on my
network, on my newspaper. That's what

923
01:17:24.520 --> 01:17:27.920
they want. They want, And
there's also people out there after they're reading

924
01:17:27.960 --> 01:17:30.560
this this here, let's have a
coin to us the heck with it?

925
01:17:30.560 --> 01:17:34.319
Come on, how many people have
groundhoss of pets? Anyway, the only

926
01:17:34.359 --> 01:17:40.960
good thing Peter has ever done as
an organization is occasionally have some of their

927
01:17:41.880 --> 01:17:46.399
volunteers and paid people be nude in
front of in public. I mean,

928
01:17:46.479 --> 01:17:50.159
and in some cases it's a good
thing that they're nude. In some cases

929
01:17:50.399 --> 01:17:54.560
it's like a nudist colony where the
people who are nude should never be nude

930
01:17:54.640 --> 01:17:58.560
even in their own homes. But
yeah, Peter does some great stuff when

931
01:17:58.640 --> 01:18:04.239
it comes to newd in public.
I'll give them that look. Peter said

932
01:18:04.279 --> 01:18:10.039
that they offered to send the organization
to punks at twenty groundhog clubs in a

933
01:18:10.159 --> 01:18:16.039
circle. They admitted they wanted to
send that organization to a sanctuary. Peter

934
01:18:16.199 --> 01:18:21.560
offered to send the organization a giant
coin, a giant coin that could easily

935
01:18:21.600 --> 01:18:28.520
replace the groundhog as the Pennsylvania town's
gimmick to draw in tourists. I'm not

936
01:18:28.560 --> 01:18:30.479
so certain to draw us some tourist
against publicity. It's a one day thing.

937
01:18:30.520 --> 01:18:33.000
It's a lot of fun, and
that's basically it had to be quite

938
01:18:33.039 --> 01:18:36.720
honest with you. Last year was
the third straight year the groundhog at spotted

939
01:18:36.800 --> 01:18:42.119
the shadow, something he has done
one hundred and seven times. Just his

940
01:18:42.199 --> 01:18:46.439
first prediction when way back in eighteen
eighty seven. So he's apparently seen the

941
01:18:46.520 --> 01:18:51.600
shadow and eighty four percent of his
predictions. Phil has only been right about

942
01:18:51.640 --> 01:18:57.199
thirty nine percent of the time.
According to the Storm Facts. Weather Almond

943
01:18:57.199 --> 01:19:00.680
app well, you got a fifty
to fifty chances like a coin flip,

944
01:19:00.680 --> 01:19:03.399
but nobody's traveling to Pucksatawny, Pennsylvania
to watch a coin flip. Andy,

945
01:19:03.600 --> 01:19:06.640
we can sit at home in our
in our in our homes and do that

946
01:19:06.920 --> 01:19:12.279
every time there's something really important that
deserves a coin flip, like say the

947
01:19:12.359 --> 01:19:15.119
upcoming super Bowl. You know what, I think it's a choke. I

948
01:19:15.119 --> 01:19:18.800
mean you you're kind of like pooh
pooing this off. This is ridiculous,

949
01:19:18.800 --> 01:19:21.399
I mean a coin flip. You
know, I'm not so certain how many

950
01:19:21.399 --> 01:19:26.800
people go to uh, Pennsylvania to
see the grounds office. I do know

951
01:19:26.880 --> 01:19:30.000
what they do the Pennsylvania Poka.
Didn't you watch the movie Groundhog Day.

952
01:19:30.399 --> 01:19:34.279
It's an incredible party. I feel
like I'm talking to a wadi, I

953
01:19:34.319 --> 01:19:39.399
really do. Look, I'm sure
Good Morning America is gonna have it.

954
01:19:39.399 --> 01:19:43.439
It's it's a news shot shot,
it's tradition, it's funny, it doesn't

955
01:19:43.479 --> 01:19:45.600
hurt. Anybody had to have a
coin flip. I mean, I don't

956
01:19:45.640 --> 01:19:48.600
know what the rection this world is
going into now. I don't know what

957
01:19:48.680 --> 01:19:53.199
the rection you were going in now. It's unbelievable. Good Morning is Good

958
01:19:53.279 --> 01:19:57.439
Morning America. That hasn't been relevant
since David Hartman was a host. What

959
01:19:57.479 --> 01:20:00.880
do you talk? Good Morning America? Nobody watches that? Are you kidding?

960
01:20:01.039 --> 01:20:04.520
What the there you go? I
mean that's because you don't watch it.

961
01:20:04.680 --> 01:20:09.279
Good Morning America probably, And I
don't have any statistics to base of

962
01:20:09.279 --> 01:20:14.640
course, this Morning the largest morning
show in America. Let's let's not let's

963
01:20:14.640 --> 01:20:17.840
not confuse. Let's not confuse the
listeners with the real facts and stories.

964
01:20:18.479 --> 01:20:24.079
Let's just conjecture and say that good
because you watch it, you think it's

965
01:20:24.119 --> 01:20:27.359
the most watched morning program. I
don't watch it because I'm not normally home

966
01:20:27.359 --> 01:20:30.399
for the entire show. But I
will pay this. I did preface by

967
01:20:30.439 --> 01:20:33.159
saying I don't have any statistics to
back me up, but I could rest

968
01:20:33.159 --> 01:20:38.600
assure it is probably the most watched
morning show in America. I can tell

969
01:20:38.600 --> 01:20:43.840
you that right well, based on
what so, based on the popularity of

970
01:20:43.880 --> 01:20:47.960
the show. But if you don't
have If you don't have the numbers,

971
01:20:48.039 --> 01:20:57.000
Okay, hold on here. Audience
rating summary for Good Morning America. Two

972
01:20:57.039 --> 01:21:04.640
point six is the average rating for
Good Morning America on a many people.

973
01:21:05.920 --> 01:21:09.880
I don't know that three and thirty
million people in the country. What.

974
01:21:10.279 --> 01:21:14.239
Okay, So, what's what's the
morning show on CBS? Oh? I

975
01:21:14.279 --> 01:21:19.640
don't know, it's terrible. It's
that that kingwoman who's a friend of Oprah.

976
01:21:19.880 --> 01:21:25.039
What's your name? Uh? I
don't know if an Today Mason is

977
01:21:25.079 --> 01:21:30.479
still Today's Show. I have absolutely
no idea. The Today Show on NBC

978
01:21:30.680 --> 01:21:35.640
hasn't been good since the Chimp left
back in the fifties. Dave Gway,

979
01:21:35.920 --> 01:21:39.479
Yeah, and the and the Chimp. What was the chimp's name? Do

980
01:21:39.520 --> 01:21:42.760
you remember the chimp's name? No? But I number Dave Garaway. But

981
01:21:42.880 --> 01:21:45.840
see how many numbers of the Today
Show. I would say of the three

982
01:21:45.920 --> 01:21:49.159
major networks, the Good Morning America
Show probably is number one. I can't

983
01:21:49.159 --> 01:21:55.560
believe we're even debating this, but
uh oh, hold on, hold hold

984
01:21:55.640 --> 01:21:58.840
on, here we go. I'm
going to look up the Today's Show ratings

985
01:21:58.880 --> 01:22:02.279
and see how Today's sure. Oh, Today's show was two point three.

986
01:22:02.359 --> 01:22:08.840
So Good Morning America has more viewers
on average than Today America is one and

987
01:22:08.880 --> 01:22:13.439
it and it doesn't surprise me at
all. Okay, well, let's go

988
01:22:13.520 --> 01:22:19.880
ahead and look at what's the other
one CBS, CBS This Morning, CBS

989
01:22:20.000 --> 01:22:25.399
this Morning ratings. I do I
think they don't crack two. You don't

990
01:22:25.439 --> 01:22:35.800
think so, No, let's see
ratings for CBS this Morning two point eight,

991
01:22:36.079 --> 01:22:42.239
which means that they are the champs, not Good Morning America. Andy,

992
01:22:42.239 --> 01:22:47.239
that I can't believe. Now,
I'm sure this is Abitron numbers.

993
01:22:47.560 --> 01:22:51.960
I don't it's the ratings I just
typed in CBS Mornings ratings, Good Morning

994
01:22:51.960 --> 01:22:57.840
America ratings, NBC Today Show ratings. So actually, numbers prove that you

995
01:22:57.840 --> 01:23:01.479
were wrong once again, Andy,
Well, you know what numbers prove I'm

996
01:23:01.479 --> 01:23:03.720
wrong. But I just said I
think it's one of the most popular shows.

997
01:23:03.960 --> 01:23:06.399
I said it was the number one
show, but I said I precftaceed

998
01:23:06.439 --> 01:23:10.159
this by saying I didn't have the
numbers. Okay, so I'm wrong,

999
01:23:10.439 --> 01:23:14.880
all right. Well, and while
we've been talking about this, my numbers

1000
01:23:14.880 --> 01:23:18.600
have been going down precipitously. So
let's move on to something else. I'd

1001
01:23:18.640 --> 01:23:21.880
like to see your numbers, really
like I would too. I would too,

1002
01:23:23.640 --> 01:23:29.199
but they don't show them to me
because they're so good that no,

1003
01:23:29.319 --> 01:23:32.520
they don't want to hurt everybody else's
feelings on the station. Let's take a

1004
01:23:32.600 --> 01:23:35.079
quick break, Andy, take a
quick break and come back, and I

1005
01:23:35.159 --> 01:23:40.960
want to recap. I want to
ask you about something specific that goes well

1006
01:23:41.000 --> 01:23:45.479
beyond the importance and relevance of morning
show ratings on television. Andy Furman,

1007
01:23:45.600 --> 01:23:49.560
are you brought it up? You
brought I didn't bring it up. You

1008
01:23:49.680 --> 01:23:53.000
brought it up. No, you
brought up Good Morning America. And I

1009
01:23:53.079 --> 01:23:58.039
don't, No way, let me
refresh you, madman. Let me tell

1010
01:23:58.079 --> 01:24:00.079
you how you brought it up.
Okay, we would talk about We were

1011
01:24:00.119 --> 01:24:03.119
talking about groundhog Day, and I
said, I don't think many people go

1012
01:24:03.239 --> 01:24:09.560
to Pennsylvania for groundhog Day, but
it's viewed on the newscast, including Good

1013
01:24:09.600 --> 01:24:12.960
Morning America. And you say,
oh, Good Morning America, I said,

1014
01:24:13.000 --> 01:24:15.760
and I have this up. I
say, it's probably the most popular

1015
01:24:15.800 --> 01:24:18.359
morning show on TV. And then
you went off on a tangent looking up

1016
01:24:18.439 --> 01:24:21.520
ratings, which I didn't even care
to do. Little Under could have left

1017
01:24:21.520 --> 01:24:25.439
it at that morning because it's one
of the most popular shows I shouldn't.

1018
01:24:25.640 --> 01:24:29.520
I should have just said morning TV
is crap. Kind of an umbrella statement,

1019
01:24:29.640 --> 01:24:32.359
a blanket statement. I want a
subject matter that you actually like.

1020
01:24:32.600 --> 01:24:36.399
I've got something for you. Hang
on after the break, we'll be back

1021
01:24:36.479 --> 01:24:42.640
with more of the fur ball on
the nightcap. Meanwhile, in the integed

1022
01:24:42.720 --> 01:24:45.840
forest, Goldie Locks is rubbing something. It's a lamp. A lamp.

1023
01:24:46.119 --> 01:24:50.520
Yeah, you rub it and a
TEENI pops out and you get three wishes.

1024
01:24:50.800 --> 01:24:54.520
Don't you know how these fairy tales
were? But what will you wish?

1025
01:24:54.560 --> 01:24:59.119
Hard to listen to Eddie and Rocky
without those bears. All they do

1026
01:24:59.239 --> 01:25:03.239
is talk toilet paper. It's so
soft, I'm so clean. Good plan,

1027
01:25:04.039 --> 01:25:09.239
Eddie and Rocky, give your day
a fairy tale ending Eddie and rock

1028

01:25:46.399 --> 01:25:48.920
twenty four. And the question I
had from you, by the way,

1038
01:25:49.560 --> 01:25:54.800
Andy's wife Wendy in the first part
of our conversation wondering what the chimp's name

1039
01:25:55.039 --> 01:25:59.079
was on the original Today Show was
Jay Fred Muggs with David. So,

1040
01:25:59.199 --> 01:26:01.760
thank you, thank you Wendy Furman
for that. What I want to do,

1041
01:26:01.920 --> 01:26:06.520
well, I know you drive a
little bit. You don't drive all

1042
01:26:06.560 --> 01:26:09.760
the time, but you like to
get in your car and go out and

1043
01:26:09.800 --> 01:26:12.960
run your errands and go to the
ups store, go to Straus Tobacanis,

1044
01:26:12.960 --> 01:26:15.720
go to the Point Arc, going
down a little perk cafe and stuff like

1045
01:26:15.760 --> 01:26:20.239
that. And you know, you
get around for a septagenarian. Have you

1046
01:26:20.399 --> 01:26:28.520
noticed have you noticed that more and
more often as you pass cars on the

1047
01:26:28.640 --> 01:26:31.720
road and you were behind somebody who
was maybe swerving a little bit, or

1048
01:26:31.800 --> 01:26:35.960
going too slow and then going very
fast. How many people have the damn

1049
01:26:36.039 --> 01:26:41.359
phone right up on their steering wheel
looking at it as they're driving, which

1050
01:26:41.359 --> 01:26:45.880
I believe violates laws or should violate
laws all over the country. There's no

1051
01:26:45.960 --> 01:26:49.640
reason for this. I know you're
a ten and two I straightforward guy because

1052
01:26:49.640 --> 01:26:54.560
you care about safety. Well you're
so nervous anyway, but you care about

1053
01:26:54.560 --> 01:26:58.119
your safety and you care about the
safety of others around You are very considerate

1054
01:26:58.159 --> 01:27:02.239
that way, Andy Furman. But
I just find it. I find it

1055
01:27:02.319 --> 01:27:09.760
infuriating when I'm behind people and they
obviously I don't care much about where they're

1056
01:27:09.800 --> 01:27:13.520
going or what lane they're in.
All they care about is a stupid phone.

1057
01:27:13.720 --> 01:27:16.960
Can't you put it down for frigging
fifteen minutes while you're getting to your

1058
01:27:17.000 --> 01:27:21.159
destination? But no, these people
can't their addicts. Do you find the

1059
01:27:21.199 --> 01:27:27.279
same thing as true in your observation? I could live with the phone,

1060
01:27:27.359 --> 01:27:30.640
although I know more often than not, when you're driving you could actually tell

1061
01:27:30.640 --> 01:27:33.760
if someone's on their phone with just
swerving in their lane. I don't realize

1062
01:27:33.800 --> 01:27:38.119
they are, but they're coming right
near the line. But I to live

1063
01:27:38.159 --> 01:27:40.840
with the phone. I'm not happy
with it. But when I see them

1064
01:27:40.840 --> 01:27:45.000
texting, that blows me away.
Now, there was a time when I

1065
01:27:45.000 --> 01:27:48.880
would drive by these guys a woman
who hump my horn and point at them.

1066
01:27:49.279 --> 01:27:53.039
I don't do that anymore. I'm
afraid to get shot. Really,

1067
01:27:53.279 --> 01:27:56.800
people are crazy. I'm not doing
that. I know road rage is out

1068
01:27:56.840 --> 01:28:00.399
there. I think it's disgusting.
Although I saw a commercial on TV last

1069
01:28:00.479 --> 01:28:03.079
night saying that put it down or
if you get courts one hundred and fifty

1070
01:28:03.119 --> 01:28:06.640
dollars making a phone call in your
car. So maybe they all cracking down,

1071
01:28:06.800 --> 01:28:11.079
but it's ridiculous, and it talk
about people getting into recks and accidents.

1072
01:28:11.239 --> 01:28:13.239
I will tell you this. I
read something just the other day.

1073
01:28:13.439 --> 01:28:16.600
People in Germany are on the autobond
doing one hundred and twenty miles an hour.

1074
01:28:16.840 --> 01:28:20.880
There are less wrecks and deaths and
accidents on the autobond than there are

1075
01:28:20.880 --> 01:28:26.359
an I seventy five. How's that? That's because they're probably not on their

1076
01:28:26.399 --> 01:28:32.199
frigging phone. Handy wowed, probably
not allowed. You're right, you know

1077
01:28:32.319 --> 01:28:36.479
me. I'm not a big fan
of big brother or big Obese government.

1078
01:28:36.840 --> 01:28:44.199
The last thing we needed more regulations
in general. However, this is if

1079
01:28:44.239 --> 01:28:48.760
we're in a seat belt is a
public safety health thing, then certainly being

1080
01:28:49.520 --> 01:28:55.239
have your eyes glued to your screen
while you're supposed to be driving has to

1081
01:28:55.279 --> 01:29:00.640
be a huge public safety health issue
and probably the most even more than DUIs,

1082
01:29:00.720 --> 01:29:04.000
I would think. I'll go one
step further. Okay, you want

1083
01:29:04.000 --> 01:29:06.760
to talk about cars and car safety. I agree with you with the phones

1084
01:29:06.800 --> 01:29:12.560
one thousand percent. Next thing number
two, if they if they don't want

1085
01:29:12.600 --> 01:29:15.319
to use the directional, why don't
they put directionals in cars? You know?

1086
01:29:15.439 --> 01:29:17.199
I stay behind these people they're going
to make left turns, and where

1087
01:29:17.239 --> 01:29:20.119
they've got a four way stop and
they don't even have directional lot, I

1088
01:29:20.119 --> 01:29:24.880
don't know if they're going to turn
or not use the freaking directional. Number

1089
01:29:24.880 --> 01:29:28.279
two. Sometimes you're at a full
way stop where there's no light, you

1090
01:29:28.319 --> 01:29:30.600
know, and you want to make
sure you're supposed let the person on your

1091
01:29:30.680 --> 01:29:34.079
right go first, that's the rule
of right. But you can't tell sometimes

1092
01:29:34.119 --> 01:29:38.720
you know why, because they're a
freaking tint in their window. I don't

1093
01:29:38.720 --> 01:29:42.600
want to see tinted windows and cars
anymore. Maybe ten percent tent in the

1094
01:29:42.600 --> 01:29:45.279
front driver's window. You don't need
a tint and your window on your side.

1095
01:29:45.319 --> 01:29:47.680
You don't need that every tint.
I don't know why they do it.

1096
01:29:47.720 --> 01:29:51.079
You can't see. There was a
time way back during the day when

1097
01:29:51.079 --> 01:29:54.680
you could see the driver. I
kind of wave to him or give them

1098
01:29:54.720 --> 01:29:57.119
the signal. Yeah, go ahead, go ahead, make your turn,

1099
01:29:57.199 --> 01:30:00.680
do it. You can't do that
anymore because the tinted window. You want

1100
01:30:00.680 --> 01:30:01.359
to get rid of this, You
want to get rid of the phone deal.

1101
01:30:01.520 --> 01:30:04.680
Make it a package, no phone, no tint. How's that I

1102
01:30:04.800 --> 01:30:09.399
use your directional? I have the
cops going out there start ticking people that

1103
01:30:09.479 --> 01:30:14.159
aren't using the directional on that I
wish. I say it every time I'm

1104
01:30:14.239 --> 01:30:18.199
out Andy and Ohio drivers are the
worst. They always blame Michigan, but

1105
01:30:18.319 --> 01:30:23.319
Ohio drivers are the worst. I
live in northern Kentucky and the difference between

1106
01:30:23.840 --> 01:30:29.399
uh, Northern Kentucky drivers and Ohio
drivers is just its mammoth. It is.

1107
01:30:29.800 --> 01:30:33.560
They will get, they will give
you, they will give they they'd

1108
01:30:33.600 --> 01:30:39.720
give Jay Fred Muggs the Chimp from
Today Show. Way back when a driver's

1109
01:30:39.720 --> 01:30:44.079
license in Ohio in Kentucky, you've
got to at least have a trained chimp.

1110
01:30:44.960 --> 01:30:46.600
You know, no, no,
because there is a big because everybody

1111
01:30:46.600 --> 01:30:50.520
in Kentucky don't have cars, they
to have tractors. What are you saying,

1112
01:30:50.920 --> 01:30:58.319
You're you're insane. There are great, great drivers, uh everywhere,

1113
01:30:58.439 --> 01:31:02.680
and they are terrible drivers every where. But the right the majority of terrible

1114
01:31:02.720 --> 01:31:09.199
drivers around here have Ohio plates,
I guarantee every single We got to challenge

1115
01:31:09.239 --> 01:31:12.560
you on that, and I'll tell
you why you challenge me on the Good

1116
01:31:12.600 --> 01:31:15.039
Morning America. Ranging you've got to
come up with stats telling me that Ohio

1117
01:31:15.119 --> 01:31:18.640
drivers are in fact worse than Kentucky
driver. Really, you throw out,

1118
01:31:18.720 --> 01:31:23.239
you just put a blanket of for
everybody who drives a car in the Great

1119
01:31:23.279 --> 01:31:26.640
Buckeye State, and I think it's
wrong. Maybe there are some bed drivers

1120
01:31:26.640 --> 01:31:29.039
there. We know that there are
bad drivers everywhere, but for you to

1121
01:31:29.079 --> 01:31:31.399
come out blattly and say that on
a fifty thousand WAT station that goes to

1122
01:31:31.439 --> 01:31:35.720
thirty eight states, that's wrong and
it's just not right to do. All

1123
01:31:35.800 --> 01:31:38.840
right, Really, you know what, you know, you know what that

1124
01:31:38.920 --> 01:31:42.479
proves, Andy, What you just
pointed out once you just pointed out right

1125
01:31:42.479 --> 01:31:48.279
there proves one thing once and for
all. I am a hater, oh

1126
01:31:48.319 --> 01:31:51.439
you are. I know that.
I still like you, but you are.

1127
01:31:51.479 --> 01:31:55.119
You are a hater. You are
definitely a hater, and for you

1128
01:31:55.159 --> 01:31:57.760
to put a blanket over the state
of Ohio is wrong. I want a

1129
01:31:57.800 --> 01:32:00.840
fact checker on your show. You're
right, need one? No, you're

1130
01:32:00.000 --> 01:32:03.920
you're right. Well, you can't
trust the factor checkers because they're all libs,

1131
01:32:04.239 --> 01:32:08.560
like Snopes dot Com, what used
to be the great fact fact checking

1132
01:32:08.680 --> 01:32:13.079
giant of the industry. They do
admit they were wrong just the other day.

1133
01:32:13.119 --> 01:32:16.479
They're wrong. They're wrong all the
time. That call Columbus and find

1134
01:32:16.520 --> 01:32:21.640
out the the next time, the
next time we speak, I will have

1135
01:32:21.720 --> 01:32:30.640
the figures of fatalities committed behind the
wheel by Ohio drivers and fatalities committed behind

1136
01:32:30.640 --> 01:32:36.520
the wheel of Kentucky licensed drivers.
I will have that information your and makes

1137
01:32:36.640 --> 01:32:41.039
it makes you look Bitter's they're responsible, that's what it's. They're responsible to

1138
01:32:41.079 --> 01:32:43.600
go out there and just throw that
out there and say it. Well,

1139
01:32:43.600 --> 01:32:46.239
and I'm not here by in particular. I just want the facts. I

1140
01:32:46.279 --> 01:32:49.880
want it with this correct and that's
why I have you on the program to

1141
01:32:50.000 --> 01:32:54.479
keep me in check, to balance
me out. Thank you so much,

1142
01:32:55.039 --> 01:33:00.600
and remember, as always, you
can't spell furman without f you. Yeah,

1143
01:33:00.640 --> 01:33:03.359
but seven hundred w l W joining
us in studio, one of my

1144
01:33:03.520 --> 01:33:09.319
favorite guests. We don't get to
talk as as often as I'd like because

1145
01:33:09.359 --> 01:33:15.159
you know, you've got basketball games
interrupting good programming, right, Sorry,

1146
01:33:15.159 --> 01:33:19.640
you see sorry Xavier Gary Jeff with
Roccocostelano trained with Rocco dot Com. And

1147
01:33:19.720 --> 01:33:25.279
tonight, Uh, we're talking about
What the Health, which is a movie,

1148
01:33:25.640 --> 01:33:30.520
right, yeah, So, so
I wanted to talk to your audience

1149
01:33:30.600 --> 01:33:39.520
about veganism, the stupidity sometimes of
of of veganism, and the propaganda of

1150
01:33:39.640 --> 01:33:45.000
veganism a lot of times, and
and What the Health is basically a movie

1151
01:33:45.039 --> 01:33:51.359
that's all propagal propaganda and uh,
it's it's made by the same people that

1152
01:33:51.560 --> 01:34:00.239
made uh, Cowspiracy, and so
they really and Conspiracy is about is more

1153
01:34:00.279 --> 01:34:06.520
about factory farming, and they and
they talk about factory farming in this movie.

1154
01:34:06.560 --> 01:34:14.880
But I want to bring it up
because one of my clients it basically

1155
01:34:15.439 --> 01:34:20.279
made him convert to becoming a vegan. And I was very shocked because I

1156
01:34:20.319 --> 01:34:26.640
remember when the movie first came out, like in twenty or seventeen. I

1157
01:34:26.760 --> 01:34:31.720
watched it and I was very unimpressed. To say, the lead you were

1158
01:34:31.720 --> 01:34:35.640
turned off because you said it's a
junk movie. There's no real science in

1159
01:34:35.680 --> 01:34:41.560
it that supports There was zero,
zero science. It was all a scare

1160
01:34:41.640 --> 01:34:47.119
tactics they're putting. They're saying that
that one egg is equal to five cigarettes,

1161
01:34:47.439 --> 01:34:53.640
and there's or that two slices of
like bacon was equal to more cigarettes,

1162
01:34:53.640 --> 01:34:59.359
and that basically you're eating cigarettes and
they have these these cigarettes. At

1163
01:34:59.439 --> 01:35:04.159
first, the Malayia, the way
that that that bacon and that eggs go

1164
01:35:04.439 --> 01:35:08.199
into your body. First of all, it's a great breakfast, so just

1165
01:35:08.199 --> 01:35:13.840
shut up right there. But then
then to back up the science, the

1166
01:35:14.479 --> 01:35:20.960
way that smoke and the carcinogens that
that you and hal bind very differently in

1167
01:35:21.000 --> 01:35:30.159
your lungs than how bacon and and
and eggs bind in the gut and how

1168
01:35:30.520 --> 01:35:36.399
they're digested and and all that,
and and one of the big things that

1169
01:35:36.439 --> 01:35:45.000
they say is absolutely science was the
that bacon great yeah, yeah, I

1170
01:35:45.000 --> 01:35:49.840
mean everything's facts now, right,
And so so what happened is that they

1171
01:35:49.880 --> 01:35:56.199
were saying that bacon and that lunch
meat right uh still, and this has

1172
01:35:56.239 --> 01:36:03.119
been a debunked hundreds of like times. Uh. They tried to conflate that

1173
01:36:04.920 --> 01:36:13.279
the the relationship between the nitrates and
the night the night trites and the night

1174
01:36:13.319 --> 01:36:18.399
trates in in like a boys head
meets or or anything like that. And

1175
01:36:18.640 --> 01:36:29.000
bacon. Two that it absolutely causes
a cancer. And and what's really relevant

1176
01:36:29.079 --> 01:36:36.359
here is that we all we all
first have a cancer cells in our body.

1177
01:36:36.600 --> 01:36:42.600
We all do every single day of
our life, we are fighting and

1178
01:36:42.880 --> 01:36:49.399
our our immune system fights those those
can cells. And every single person in

1179
01:36:49.479 --> 01:36:59.199
America has a five percent chance of
getting cancer with or without blown without Right

1180
01:36:59.239 --> 01:37:08.319
now, if you eat lunch meat
and bacon every single day of the year,

1181
01:37:08.640 --> 01:37:14.960
right right, it raises your likelihood
of getting cancer if you did it

1182
01:37:15.000 --> 01:37:20.760
every single day, so you will
be raised. It will raise your chi.

1183
01:37:21.000 --> 01:37:25.079
You went from you went from five
percent to six percent, six percent

1184
01:37:25.239 --> 01:37:29.720
just eating lunch meat and bacon every
day every single day. So if you

1185
01:37:30.119 --> 01:37:35.520
if you eat it, if every
other day, I mean, okay,

1186
01:37:35.600 --> 01:37:39.439
so let's just trying to hatch my
bets here, Roco. Well, let's

1187
01:37:39.479 --> 01:37:43.680
do the math. If you did
it every every every other day, it'd

1188
01:37:44.640 --> 01:37:47.640
percent, right sure, so maybe
it's maybe it's five and you know,

1189
01:37:47.800 --> 01:37:51.319
and and a half percent, and
then maybe if you did it every third

1190
01:37:51.399 --> 01:37:57.159
day, it'll be you know,
I mean, there is a mathematical formula

1191
01:37:57.359 --> 01:38:02.079
to science and if you want to
listen to the science. Well, you

1192
01:38:02.119 --> 01:38:06.640
know, every time I think vegans, I always think of everything as soy.

1193
01:38:08.199 --> 01:38:13.800
Everything is and soy is so terrible, especially like for men and and

1194
01:38:13.800 --> 01:38:17.880
and women. But soy is if
you overeat soy and you're a man,

1195
01:38:17.960 --> 01:38:24.079
your breast grow and and all this
other stuff happens to you. Internally,

1196
01:38:24.319 --> 01:38:28.560
it isn't soy bad. Okay.
So because I don't like I don't like

1197
01:38:28.600 --> 01:38:32.840
me some tofurky at all, So
well that's kind of annoying. But yeah,

1198
01:38:32.880 --> 01:38:39.000
it's just it's really just just annoying. I'm I'm not a big fan

1199
01:38:39.439 --> 01:38:46.119
of these of vegans making food that
tastes like meat and then but it's so

1200
01:38:46.479 --> 01:38:53.640
it's so ultra ultra process. But
there's another thing that really annoys me till

1201
01:38:54.079 --> 01:38:58.800
no end is that if you were
to not eat eat meat, and you

1202
01:38:58.840 --> 01:39:04.159
said, okay, where gonna just
have gardens and crops across America. There

1203
01:39:04.239 --> 01:39:11.880
was a beautiful line in the movie
A Yellowstone by Kevin Cosson says said,

1204
01:39:12.319 --> 01:39:17.279
do you know how much death veganism
causes? And if you if you didn't

1205
01:39:17.680 --> 01:39:25.479
realize this. When people grow crops, they have to kill chipmunks, squirrels,

1206
01:39:26.359 --> 01:39:31.279
moles, all the gophers and there's
a lot of birds. There's a

1207
01:39:31.279 --> 01:39:36.439
lot of lives that are actually kill
Yeah, a lot of those same people

1208
01:39:36.680 --> 01:39:44.600
that insist on a vegan lifestyle and
just growing crops are the same ones that

1209
01:39:44.640 --> 01:39:49.800
are in favor of winds, of
wind turbines and solar panels which also kill

1210
01:39:49.960 --> 01:39:57.039
animals, and electric cars and electric
freeze and the trees when the weather gets

1211
01:39:57.039 --> 01:40:02.119
below thirty two degrees because the supercharge
stations don't work well well. And I

1212
01:40:02.279 --> 01:40:08.000
you know so. And what what
always makes me laugh is if you ever

1213
01:40:08.920 --> 01:40:15.079
have dinner or you go out.
I tried very very hard not to,

1214
01:40:15.279 --> 01:40:19.680
but vegans are very much like virgins. For some reason, they have to

1215
01:40:19.960 --> 01:40:27.840
state their their their virginism or their
veganists, oh, their militaries. Yeah,

1216
01:40:28.119 --> 01:40:30.880
so when you're at a dinner table. I had this beauty queen at

1217
01:40:30.920 --> 01:40:36.439
one time that I that I trained, and the second she sat down at

1218
01:40:36.439 --> 01:40:41.840
the at the table, she goes, I'm a virgin, and I was

1219
01:40:41.880 --> 01:40:45.159
like, who cares, I don't
want it's twenty four years old. It

1220
01:40:45.199 --> 01:40:51.079
almost sounds like an invitation, right, It's like I wasn't even gonna try,

1221
01:40:55.439 --> 01:40:58.239
but now you put that gauntlet in
front of me, maybe I will.

1222
01:40:58.479 --> 01:41:01.359
Well, well, it's with vegans
when you go I'm a vegan.

1223
01:41:01.399 --> 01:41:06.079
I want to shove a steak down. You show. That's a perfect that's

1224
01:41:06.119 --> 01:41:13.039
a perfect place in this discussion.
Roco's shoving a steak down a vegan's throat.

1225
01:41:13.279 --> 01:41:17.840
I want to watch that movie more
with Rocco soon. On the Nightcap

1226
01:41:17.960 --> 01:41:24.479
on seven hundred w l W,
I get ready for Wednesday nineteen, I

1227
01:41:24.560 --> 01:41:28.079
have dot fair cat West millers Man
make their way to Morgantown for a matchup

1228
01:41:28.119 --> 01:41:31.399
with a mountaineer son a perfect swish. It's U see in West Virginia in

1229
01:41:31.439 --> 01:41:35.039
a big twelve grim record. I'm
a Hawk plaque in every second of the

1230
01:41:35.079 --> 01:41:42.199
action line Think Tomorrow night at six
thirty on seven hundred WLW and on seven

1231
01:41:42.279 --> 01:41:46.039
hundred wlw's live stream on the free
iHeartRadio app. Game time is always a

1232
01:41:46.039 --> 01:41:50.079
good time for Skyline. You can
pregame with friends in Alano. The dawn

1233
01:41:50.199 --> 01:41:56.399
of the first Family of Fitness in
the Tri State and he is back too

1234
01:41:56.560 --> 01:42:00.600
well. He came into the studio
in anticipation that I would kick his ring,

1235
01:42:00.800 --> 01:42:02.560
and that hasn't happened yet, but
you never know. I mean,

1236
01:42:03.079 --> 01:42:08.199
he can make me an offer I
can't refuse at any moment. Well,

1237
01:42:08.239 --> 01:42:12.960
I always make you an offer you
can't refuse. But right, so,

1238
01:42:13.000 --> 01:42:17.720
anyway, Rocco and I are this
time around talking about something called structured water.

1239
01:42:17.840 --> 01:42:23.199
I have no idea what you're talking
about, so please elaborate enlighten me

1240
01:42:23.560 --> 01:42:28.000
well, and most people in Cincinnety, I don't know anything about structured water.

1241
01:42:28.039 --> 01:42:35.000
But the reason why I wanted to
talk about water and structured water in

1242
01:42:35.319 --> 01:42:42.439
a particular is because like there's too
many water companies out there, and the

1243
01:42:42.520 --> 01:42:48.079
water is just is just absolutely garbage. And on one specific waters are called

1244
01:42:48.159 --> 01:42:56.279
alkaline water. Yeah, and alkaline
water is literally one of the biggest scams.

1245
01:42:56.319 --> 01:43:00.840
I I probably shouldn't say scam.
It's probably one of the most disappointing

1246
01:43:00.159 --> 01:43:08.239
things I've i've really ever ever seen
because if you ever look on the bottle

1247
01:43:08.560 --> 01:43:15.640
of of a alkaline bottle, in
the fine print, it says nine point

1248
01:43:15.680 --> 01:43:21.000
five p h Right, so that's
the alkalinity of the water, and supposedly

1249
01:43:21.159 --> 01:43:30.399
alkaline. If you drink anything alkaline
I would recommend orange juice or grapefruit juice.

1250
01:43:30.000 --> 01:43:39.960
Actually the acidity the city, no, not just the acidity actually converts

1251
01:43:40.279 --> 01:43:44.159
to alkaline in the body. It's
it's much much better for you. If

1252
01:43:44.199 --> 01:43:46.560
you do lemon water, that's gonna
be much much better water for you.

1253
01:43:47.119 --> 01:43:54.800
And just taking minerals in general.
But alkaline water at when it's bottled,

1254
01:43:55.279 --> 01:44:00.399
it says, when you know at
first bottling it is it is a nine

1255
01:44:00.439 --> 01:44:08.479
point five a pH, but uh, the pH dies and actually a lessons

1256
01:44:09.199 --> 01:44:14.479
the more shelf life it has on
it. So so with that whole that

1257
01:44:14.560 --> 01:44:17.039
reminds me. Water gets old,
is what you're saying. Alkaline water gets

1258
01:44:17.039 --> 01:44:21.560
old. It reminds me of the
movie Signs where the little girl had glasses

1259
01:44:21.560 --> 01:44:25.399
of water all over the house.
It's no, I don't want that water.

1260
01:44:25.399 --> 01:44:28.720
I want a new glass that's old. So she knew, she knew,

1261
01:44:29.159 --> 01:44:34.640
she knew. So take your your
health advice from little girls in movies

1262
01:44:34.760 --> 01:44:41.560
on the movies. ALIAS, right, that's right. So so I just

1263
01:44:41.600 --> 01:44:45.640
want to say buying that stuff is
really I'm not gonna help you. I've

1264
01:44:45.680 --> 01:44:51.600
actually tested. I have a video
online that I tested the alkaline water from

1265
01:44:51.640 --> 01:45:00.079
the bottom and I tested tap water, and the tap water was actually a

1266
01:45:00.079 --> 01:45:04.399
more alkaline because of the minerals at
a higher pH way way higher pH than

1267
01:45:04.479 --> 01:45:09.840
the alkaline water the virus. I
think that the alkaline thing is a scam.

1268
01:45:10.000 --> 01:45:14.039
Oh well, if you say scam, you can get sued. So

1269
01:45:14.279 --> 01:45:17.199
I don't like people, so I
don't like it. If if you say

1270
01:45:17.760 --> 01:45:20.760
I think it's a scam, they
can't see you because they can't see you

1271
01:45:20.800 --> 01:45:26.920
for thinking something, you know,
saying it definitely, yeah, I think

1272
01:45:26.960 --> 01:45:31.520
it might be a scam. You
could say that and be totally unlitigated.

1273
01:45:32.039 --> 01:45:38.079
Call me right now, shut up, tell Gary, Jeff Walgan and shut

1274
01:45:38.199 --> 01:45:44.039
up now. But there's something actually
better, and there's something that actually holds

1275
01:45:45.560 --> 01:45:50.840
well, not not pH but it's
called it's called a structured water. And

1276
01:45:51.119 --> 01:46:00.840
basically what structured water is, and
it's also called hydrogen water, it actually

1277
01:46:00.239 --> 01:46:12.640
creates a structure that's hexagonal, so
so the molecules form and it becomes it

1278
01:46:12.720 --> 01:46:21.520
is three more hydrogen molecules in it. And with that hydrogen, it helps

1279
01:46:23.159 --> 01:46:30.399
to facilitate a more cellular activity in
the mitochondria and the and the ocellular structure.

1280
01:46:31.920 --> 01:46:35.800
So is it truly h two o. Then if it has more hydrogen

1281
01:46:35.880 --> 01:46:43.880
molecules, it's not it's not H
two oh, it's actually H three oh.

1282
01:46:43.640 --> 01:46:49.279
Yeah. And so it's going to
have you know, a more of

1283
01:46:49.279 --> 01:46:56.640
of the hydrogen, like the hydrogen
molecule, and it absorbs much much faster

1284
01:46:56.840 --> 01:47:00.319
into you know, because we're carbon
where carbon you know, or right,

1285
01:47:00.439 --> 01:47:06.560
So so it's gonna be a much
more much more absorbed and much faster.

1286
01:47:06.640 --> 01:47:10.760
Well, you listen to the green
idiot's carbons destroying the planets. That's why,

1287
01:47:10.880 --> 01:47:14.439
that's why their movement is an anti
human movement because we're all carbon based

1288
01:47:14.439 --> 01:47:18.119
creatures. Well, and the and
and that's the craziest thing I've ever heard

1289
01:47:18.399 --> 01:47:26.720
where you know, I definitely see
all the transhumanism and the and the and

1290
01:47:26.760 --> 01:47:31.840
the evilness that's out there against a
human's and and you know, we have

1291
01:47:31.920 --> 01:47:39.760
to literally live with with the notion
that we are carbon bing that's right,

1292
01:47:40.119 --> 01:47:45.560
and we have you know, organic
beings, all carbon based life forms please

1293
01:47:45.640 --> 01:47:49.960
report to the detention center for elimination, right, And I mean that's what

1294
01:47:50.000 --> 01:47:56.279
they want sure, right, because
the whole a whole group of them in

1295
01:47:56.399 --> 01:48:02.520
dominos, That's that's what they're all
about. And my my friend Karen Kataline

1296
01:48:02.520 --> 01:48:05.560
says it all the time. Rocco. My advice to them is, Okay,

1297
01:48:05.640 --> 01:48:10.319
you go first, Yeah, and
why not do you believe it's a

1298
01:48:10.359 --> 01:48:14.000
good thing for the planet. Maybe
you can volunteer to be the first on

1299
01:48:14.079 --> 01:48:17.199
the list. Well, and because
you're really not that special, Yeah,

1300
01:48:17.239 --> 01:48:23.560
and we're gonna we're going away off
off off structure. But I would really

1301
01:48:24.279 --> 01:48:30.319
rather people look more into structured water, you know, and then and then

1302
01:48:30.640 --> 01:48:35.159
start drinking that if you're gonna pay
extra money for water, right, And

1303
01:48:35.279 --> 01:48:39.680
I mean is it sold? Where
would you find? Yeah, you can

1304
01:48:39.800 --> 01:48:43.239
buy a molecule of hydrogen. You
can buy it online. I think that

1305
01:48:43.319 --> 01:48:47.359
a Fresh Time has has some and
and there's a and there's a company called

1306
01:48:47.399 --> 01:48:53.640
a Sprouts that's in you know,
in Tennessee, Oklahoma. But I just

1307
01:48:53.640 --> 01:48:59.520
go online Amazon sells it. But
structured water, yeah, structured water.

1308
01:48:59.640 --> 01:49:03.199
And then you know, I'm and
I'm just a big, a bigger fan

1309
01:49:03.520 --> 01:49:11.399
of just you know, like the
big Burkey filter or Alexa Pure where they

1310
01:49:11.439 --> 01:49:16.920
have the the ceramic filters that take
out the floor ride that take out Because

1311
01:49:17.159 --> 01:49:20.920
we talked, you know, the
other night about the floor ride and how

1312
01:49:21.159 --> 01:49:31.279
you know how so so when you
can and you want to pay extra for

1313
01:49:31.479 --> 01:49:39.920
a water and and it's not sam
pellogrino, and get some structured water?

1314
01:49:40.399 --> 01:49:44.880
How was how was sam pellogrino for
your health? How is that? As

1315
01:49:44.920 --> 01:49:48.039
long as you get it in the
glass bottles, it's fine. We talked

1316
01:49:48.039 --> 01:49:54.079
about the Yeah, like the microplas. I'm drinking out of a damn styrofoam

1317
01:49:54.079 --> 01:50:00.600
cup again tonight, Rocco annoying as
a train with Rocco dot co? Is

1318
01:50:00.640 --> 01:50:02.680
it so annoying that you want to
shove a steak down my mouth like I'm

1319
01:50:02.680 --> 01:50:06.920
a vegan? Okay, good,
all right, rap though, thank you

1320
01:50:08.000 --> 01:50:12.439
brother. Well we'll talk soon.
I know. It's the nightcap on seven

1321
01:50:12.520 --> 01:50:13.800
hundred W l W
