00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:09,320
You are listening to w M and
H. Command God, don't get sorely

2
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:49,159
madself. Welcome everybody, Here we
go. It is Wednesday, Matt Connorton

3
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:53,799
Unleashed, and we are live from
the studios of w M n H ninety

4
00:00:53,799 --> 00:00:57,079
five point three F M and Glorious. And it is a glorious day outside.

5
00:00:57,159 --> 00:01:02,359
My God, this weather is nice. Mid I like it. It's

6
00:01:02,479 --> 00:01:04,879
you know, it's October, but
doesn't feel like October. Feels more like

7
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,480
summer. I prefer summer. I'm
a summer guy. I'm not a fall

8
00:01:08,519 --> 00:01:12,439
guy. Leaves, you know,
they're they're nice to look at and everything

9
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,000
the foliage until they all fall off
the trees and then you got a bunch

10
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:19,640
of dead leaves. And winter's coming
in h. So if we can hold

11
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,879
onto summer a little bit longer,
that's fine with me. Anyway, I

12
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,040
digress. It is a glorious day
outside in downtown Manchester, New Hampshire,

13
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:30,879
here from the studios of WM and
H. We're also of course on Comcast

14
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,840
Channel six if you're in Manchester,
and hello to all of our online listeners

15
00:01:33,879 --> 00:01:37,560
across the nation and around the globe. You can go to my website.

cetera, et cetera. By the

18
00:01:45,719 --> 00:01:49,400
way, yes, Miriam, Miriam
vanishes in the Facebook cloud chat and she

19
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:55,519
loves Puddles pity party. Actually she
she went Jenny went with her wants to

20
00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:00,480
see Puddles live and conquered. And
yeah, that was a song parody of

21
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,840
Royals devoted to the ouster of Kevin
McCarthy that I just found online, so

22
00:02:04,879 --> 00:02:07,400
I thought i'd play that. Of
course. I opened the show with Strangers

23
00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:14,800
by Fox and the Flamingos, who
were here last week and just such an

24
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,080
amazing band. And yeah, I've
played that song a bunch of times now.

25
00:02:17,479 --> 00:02:21,840
That song, I don't even know
if it's available yet on the streaming

26
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,360
services. It might be by now. When we debuted on the show,

27
00:02:24,439 --> 00:02:28,240
it hadn't even been it wasn't available
anywhere yet. We were the first to

28
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,680
have it, and I'm just it's
one of those songs, you know,

29
00:02:32,039 --> 00:02:37,479
I've got there's a short list of
songs of guests who have been on the

30
00:02:37,479 --> 00:02:40,080
show that just gets stuck in my
head all the time, and that's one

31
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,520
of them. I can't get enough
of that. Such a great song,

32
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,039
what a great band Box and the
Flamingos. We've had a lot of great

33
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:50,080
musical guests. We do not have
a musical guest today. However, what

34
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:55,199
we're doing now with Wednesdays is we
are resuming our segment with my favorite conservative,

35
00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:00,319
Eric Pilcher. But because scheduling on
his end has been a challenge,

36
00:03:00,319 --> 00:03:04,879
he's now joining us in the second
hour on Wednesdays, a new Marrow dose.

37
00:03:05,319 --> 00:03:07,400
So I really look forward to that. So he'll be joining us.

38
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:08,639
It's been a couple of weeks since
we've been able to do that segment,

39
00:03:08,719 --> 00:03:13,840
so he will be joining us today
in the second hour, and uh really

40
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,159
uh really enjoy that. It's a
popular feature on the show. And of

41
00:03:16,199 --> 00:03:21,439
course we have Eric Pilcher's classic film
reviews on Fridays, and we'll talk about

42
00:03:21,439 --> 00:03:24,680
that too. Uh the Exorcist.
It's it's almost time, yes, yes,

43
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:30,199
uh, let's see, So that
will be coming up today. If

44
00:03:30,199 --> 00:03:31,960
you'd like to join us, the
studio line is open six oh three two

You can also text me at six

Matt at mattconnorton dot com, and
of course you can interact endo Pine in

49
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,759
the Facebook live chat. But the
best thing to do so that we can

50
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,719
here and enjoy your Dulca tones is
to give us a call at six oh

52

Jenny is in there, of course and

Gagnan joins us and says, Happy Prince

54
00:04:08,199 --> 00:04:13,400
Spaghetti Day. Let's see Maria vanish
I mentioned is in the chat room.

55
00:04:14,039 --> 00:04:17,319
John Oh, John Oppwood has some
very exciting news in the chat room.

56
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:23,759
He says, I have been selected
as the new Speaker of the House according

57
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,079
to a text on my phone.
Now, I have to tell you,

58
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,560
John, that does surprise me,
and I don't know if there's a way

59
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:30,920
that you can verify that to make
sure you know, there are a lot

60
00:04:30,959 --> 00:04:35,040
of scammers out there. The other
thing that surprises me about that is you

61
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:41,079
know you're you're not a Republican,
and I wouldn't have thought you would even

62
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:45,279
be on their radar. Frankly,
I mean, if Matt Gates won't can't

63
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:46,519
get along with Kevin McCarthy, I
don't know how he's going to get it,

64
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,399
but that actually that would be something, right. I just have an

65
00:04:49,399 --> 00:04:55,560
eye. I has had a great
idea for a reality show where John Hopwood

66
00:04:55,639 --> 00:04:59,839
and Matt Gates, Congressman Matt Gates
of Florida, are roommates. I think

67
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:03,000
that would be fantastic. You could
also make it into a sitcom, but

68
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,879
I think reality show would be better, and I think it would be very,

69
00:05:06,439 --> 00:05:10,920
very entertaining. I'm not a big
reality TV guy, but I would

70
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,160
watch that. No, I don't
know. Well, congratulations if it's true.

71
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,519
John, Now that's amazing. You
know a lot of people don't know

72
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:25,079
this, but the Speaker of the
House does not have to be a sitting

73
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,680
member of the House of Representatives.
You do not have to be one of

74
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:32,240
our elected lawgivers and overlords, as
I like to call him, also known

75
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,560
as congress people. You do not
have to be one of them. You

76
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:41,439
do not have to be an elected
member of that body to be Speaker of

77
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:46,879
the House. I don't think in
our history we've ever had a Speaker of

78
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,480
the House who is not an elected
member of the House at that time.

79
00:05:49,519 --> 00:05:53,920
I don't think we have the idea
of it has been floated, in fact

80
00:05:53,959 --> 00:05:58,560
that some people who think that a
certain former President Donald John Trump would make

81
00:05:59,079 --> 00:06:01,360
a great Beaker of the House.
Seems to me he's a little busy.

82
00:06:02,079 --> 00:06:08,079
He's running for president, and he's
got some legal stuff he's dealing with,

83
00:06:08,519 --> 00:06:13,800
so I think he might be a
little tied up. But that idea is

84
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,600
out there. B Pinard joins us
in the Facebook live chat and says,

85
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:25,319
good afternoon, Hello, b Let's
see. Miriam says, is that really

86
00:06:25,399 --> 00:06:28,800
John Hopwood or did he get hacked? Yes, because John is also sharing

87
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,920
somebody's only fans page in the Facebook
live chat. That's really for the other

88
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,920
show John, of course, Matt
Connerton unsheathed. We can explore those matters

89
00:06:35,959 --> 00:06:43,879
further. But let's see. Oh, Miriam said, Okay, now I

90
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,560
know it's you lol. I'm afraid
to click on it. Yeah, me

91
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,839
too. Melanie Liberty from the Great
State of Vermont joins us in the Facebook

92
00:06:49,879 --> 00:06:56,040
live chat. John says the only
fans member for whom he has shared the

93
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,959
link in the chat room, says, John says, she has forty two

94
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:06,480
and student debt. So she's working
it out as a working girl online parallel

95
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:11,240
to the nurse in Virginia running as
the Democratic nominee for the House of Reps,

96
00:07:11,519 --> 00:07:16,720
except she was doing it for extra
loot and fun. Well, Melanie

97
00:07:16,759 --> 00:07:20,079
says, I always knew you would
be House speaker one day. Matt owes

98
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:26,480
me ten dollars. I don't remember
making that bet. We need to confirm

99
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,439
this too. Look, I'm a
cheap soob. If you want ten bucks

100
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,360
out of me, we need a
This is what I need. I need

101
00:07:33,439 --> 00:07:42,759
a certified letter from somebody official,
perhaps Patrick McHenry. McHenry, Yeah,

102
00:07:42,839 --> 00:07:46,000
mckenry. I guess he's the he's
the acting speaker. Now, I'm a

103
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,839
little confused about how this works,
you know, other than I mean it's

104
00:07:49,839 --> 00:07:57,360
a circus. I'm not confused about
that part. I hope they don't start

105
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,240
bringing out elephants. I mean,
I mean literally elephants, not Republicans,

106
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:07,079
because that's you know, we don't
do that anymore. Remember when Ringling Brothers

107
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,480
they got rid of the elephants,
and I think it basically put the circus

108
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,879
out of business. But it's just
as well, because it's uh, you

109
00:08:11,879 --> 00:08:18,839
should not abuse those those amazing creatures. Again, I'm talking about literal elephants.

110
00:08:18,879 --> 00:08:22,000
I'm not talking about Republicans. You
shouldn't abuse anybody, though, you

111
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:26,720
should not do anything that violates the
Geneva Convention. Well, then again,

112
00:08:26,839 --> 00:08:30,839
I mean Matt Gates might be the
exception. I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

113
00:08:30,879 --> 00:08:33,320
Don't anyone get upset with me.
I'm not suggesting Matt Gates should be tortured.

114
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,759
I don't know if Kevin McCarthy himself
would necessarily say no to that.

115
00:08:37,919 --> 00:08:48,159
But let's see. John Hopwood said, Wait a minute. The teacher made

116
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:52,919
a salary of forty two K,
but eight K a month from posting naughty

117
00:08:52,919 --> 00:08:58,639
content on only Fans. Well,
her husband is very supportive of her sex

118
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:07,039
work career. I think that's that's
remarkable. Roni Faverro from the Great State

119
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:13,399
of California joins us in the Facebook
live chat. Oh, John Hoppwito says,

120
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,320
I'm talking about the new Hampshire House
of Raps. Oh, so you're

121
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,559
not so you haven't been chosen to
be the new speaker of the House.

122
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:24,320
See, I just figured I guess
I shouldn't have assumed. I shouldn't have

123
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:28,799
assumed but you know why I assumed, because there happens to be an opening

124
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:35,279
in the United States House of Representatives
for a speaker. If you haven't noticed,

125
00:09:35,799 --> 00:09:39,200
the job has opened up. I
wonder if it's something you can apply

126
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:45,320
for on indeed, okay, let's
see Jfed joins us in the Facebook live

127
00:09:45,399 --> 00:09:50,399
chat. Hello Jfed, Nice to
see you in there. Sir Mike from

128
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,679
Queen City Cabinetry joins us in the
Facebook laf chat. Queen City Cabinetry,

129
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,720
of course, one of our great
sponsors here at WM and H ninety five

130
00:09:56,759 --> 00:10:00,679
point three FM. You can bring
your kitchen to life at Queen City Cabinetry

131
00:10:01,639 --> 00:10:05,360
in the historic Sunbeam Mall, named
of course for the vaunted General Sunbeam,

132
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:09,679
who would have General Sunbeam would have
made a great Speaker of the House or

133
00:10:09,799 --> 00:10:13,879
president, but instead he settled on
a career of making bread in his retirement,

134
00:10:13,879 --> 00:10:16,600
of course, after he was done
in the military. A lot of

135
00:10:16,639 --> 00:10:22,360
people think General Sunbeam was killed in
battle. That's actually not true. It

136
00:10:22,399 --> 00:10:26,639
makes for a better story, and
regardless of how General Sunbeam was killed,

137
00:10:26,919 --> 00:10:33,679
we should honor him. However,
in the interests of truth, he was

138
00:10:33,759 --> 00:10:41,639
in fact killed in a terrible bread
making accident. Apparently, some hooligans broke

139
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:46,120
into the kitchen one night while he
was making some bread and started throwing bread

140
00:10:46,159 --> 00:10:50,759
around all over the place, and
next thing you know, General Sunbeam was

141
00:10:50,799 --> 00:10:56,440
smothered to death by several loaves of
bread falling on his face all at once.

142
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:01,480
He couldn't breathe, and the hooligans
left there with us several loaves of

143
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,840
freshly baked bread. I might add, I'm sure they enjoyed some delicious sandwiches

144
00:11:05,919 --> 00:11:11,679
later as they reflected on their I
mean it's manslaughter, I would say,

145
00:11:11,759 --> 00:11:18,120
of the great General Sunbeam. But
we honor him regardless, so that's very

146
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:26,440
important. Let's see. J Fed
says, John's not young enough for Matt,

147
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:30,279
Oh, for Matt Gates. I
didn't know what you meant there for

148
00:11:30,279 --> 00:11:31,039
a second. I was like,
what do you mean? It took me

149
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:37,480
a second. You mean Matt Gates? Yes, yes, yes, Jenny

150
00:11:37,519 --> 00:11:39,519
says, it's one hundred and twenty
five dollars to be the new Hampshire House

151
00:11:39,519 --> 00:11:43,399
speaker. You get the big bucks. Yes. Joe Friday joins us in

152
00:11:43,399 --> 00:11:46,759
the Facebook left chat and says,
hello peeps, Aloha, Hello, Hello

153
00:11:46,879 --> 00:11:52,399
Joe Friday. John Hopwood says the
yeast exploded, referring to General Sunbeam.

154
00:11:54,399 --> 00:12:00,000
There is evidence to suggest there may
have been an explosion when the hooligans were

155
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,240
throwing the bread around and roughing up
General Sunbeam. You know, he was

156
00:12:03,279 --> 00:12:07,120
an older man at that point,
the General. You know, it's not

157
00:12:07,159 --> 00:12:09,279
like he could just fight off the
hooligans. Now, listen, when General

158
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:13,320
Sunbeam was a much younger man,
and when he was still in the military,

159
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:20,639
you could have ten, twelve,
fifteen hooligans all running into a kitchen

160
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,679
all at once, trying to mess
with him, and he just fight him

161
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,519
all off. But as an older
man, it was more difficult, you

162
00:12:26,519 --> 00:12:30,279
know, and you know, you
need a lot of the bread himself,

163
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,919
and you know, you know it's
he might have been a little bit mobile

164
00:12:35,279 --> 00:12:39,360
trying to fight off the hooligans.
But we still love him. The point

165
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:45,320
is General Sunbeam, we love him. We honor him, not just on

166
00:12:45,399 --> 00:12:52,120
the day that we commemorate his passing
or his birthday, or every day every

167
00:12:52,279 --> 00:12:56,200
day. And that's why. I
don't know if it's true, but I

168
00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:03,360
remember Mike from Green City Cabinetry once
say that every single day before he leaves

169
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,000
Queen City Cabinetry, he goes down
to the basement in the Sunbeam mall and

170
00:13:07,039 --> 00:13:13,200
he lights a candle for General Sunbeam. And I said to Mike once,

171
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,000
I said, Uh, aren't you
worried about the uh leaving a lit candle

172
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,399
like that in the basement, Uh
when you leave for the day? And

173
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,919
he said, Uh, I didn't. Uh, that hadn't occurred to me.

174
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,200
Uh. We have a call.
Hi, welcome to Matt Connorton,

175
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:33,080
unleashed. Who's this? It's General
Sunbeam, This is in General Sunbeam.

176
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:37,480
Now, how dare you? This
is clearly John Hopwood, you're not fooling

177
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,679
me. Now, had you said
that you were the ghost of General Sunbeam,

178
00:13:41,919 --> 00:13:45,399
you might have fooled me. But
you're clearly not General Sunbeam. General

179
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:52,519
Sunbeam is dead. I'm transitioning.
Ah, No, I don't think.

180
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,200
I don't think that's a thing in
this case, John, I'm not fooled.

181
00:13:58,799 --> 00:14:01,600
I can't transition in the general rumby. I don't believe so. I

182
00:14:01,639 --> 00:14:05,159
mean, I support your choices,
but no, I don't think so.

183
00:14:05,399 --> 00:14:11,240
Isn't that part of my civil rights? Well here's the thing. When when

184
00:14:11,279 --> 00:14:15,960
General Sunbeam was still alive, a
lot of that hadn't been settled yet.

185
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:20,120
But that's all right. Listen,
you can be I'll tell you what this

186
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:26,039
is America. You can be whoever
you want to be. How's that I

187
00:14:26,039 --> 00:14:31,200
would like women to see me as
like six foot two? Oh am?

188
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:39,399
I going to accomplish that without the
court order. Platform shoes, flatform shoes,

189
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:46,919
Yeah, they have to be ten
inches tall. So what people can

190
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:50,759
walk on stilts? It's something you
can learn to do. And you could

191
00:14:50,799 --> 00:14:54,399
probably look at kiss they wear those
big boots on stage. You could do

192
00:14:54,480 --> 00:15:01,440
that. I have a bad back
and a bumnee, So how much can

193
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:07,320
all be worked around? Much?
You know, General Sunbeam died to get

194
00:15:07,399 --> 00:15:11,240
us to fourteenth Amendment. I'd much
rather go to court and follow a lawsuit

195
00:15:11,559 --> 00:15:18,840
and force the women to recognize me
as six foot two. Okay, maybe

196
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:22,639
maybe, and you know, maybe
I want to Some days, I might

197
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:26,639
just want to be even six feet
Some days I might want to be six

198
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:33,000
seven six, six ft six seven. Then I really look down on Peter

199
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,799
White, you know, one of
the days that you know, one of

200
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,600
his shorter days. That's true.
He is an enormously tall man. He's

201
00:15:39,639 --> 00:15:46,120
a giant. Yes, he is
a giant in so many ways, the

202
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:56,679
giant of Manchester Public Radio. Actually
that leave you Actually tonight is the nha

203
00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:02,039
B Awards. Uh, and Peter
is going to be at that representing WM

204
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:03,679
and H with a few other personalities. I was invited to go, but

205
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:07,879
the problem is I'd have to get
there late because it starts at like five

206
00:16:07,919 --> 00:16:11,919
point thirty in the afternoon. It's
like zah, they kind of getting there

207
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,559
late kind of sucks. So I
told Peter, I said, if somebody

208
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,600
else from the station wants my ticket. So I think Paul took my ticket.

209
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,440
I said, if somebody else from
the station wants my ticket, who

210
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:25,200
can actually get there on time and
enjoy the evening? By all means,

211
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:29,000
I'd rather somebody else get to do
that than me, you know, stumbling

212
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:33,200
in two hours into the event,
you know what I mean? Holy?

213
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:40,080
You know what I just my windows
falling out? You should see a doctor.

214
00:16:40,399 --> 00:16:41,960
Wait did you was that a metaphor? Or do you mean literally a

215
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:49,840
window in your home? Hey,
let's forget about that. I'm having a

216
00:16:49,919 --> 00:16:53,480
drink now. I'm having a drink
of cheap scotch. Uh huh, that's

217
00:16:53,480 --> 00:17:00,720
the best kind I'm celebrating. What
are you celebrating, sir? I am

218
00:17:00,799 --> 00:17:04,480
celebrating because as we've had the national
alert, which I just read it.

219
00:17:04,519 --> 00:17:10,400
I mistook that for my elevation the
Speaker of the House. It's actually an

220
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:18,039
alert from the National something or other
system, which simultaneously yesterday in Russia they

221
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:26,039
had their event practicing a nuclear alert
alert like my sisters used to go through

222
00:17:26,279 --> 00:17:33,240
in the nineteen fifties, in the
early sixties. I was born nineteen fifty

223
00:17:33,319 --> 00:17:38,480
nine, so I don't remember.
We didn't. They didn't make us crawl

224
00:17:38,519 --> 00:17:44,119
on the desk. Oh, they
didn't. Okay, now that was over

225
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:49,920
by that. But according to the
bulls of the atomic scientists, I guess

226
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:56,880
we're closer to nuclear war than ever. So I'm celebrating. I have thought,

227
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:02,279
you know, I've been very depressed
they thinking of that my life was

228
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:07,119
miss meant. But let's just say, you know, we're closer to nuclear

229
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:11,799
war than ever. There are these
reports that you really can't substantiate, but

230
00:18:11,839 --> 00:18:17,160
people love to post them anyways of
the media. That not too but three

231
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:26,160
platforms. The United States has three
aerial platforms command platforms for the nuclear you

232
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:30,000
know, warfare command control system.
And I only thought there were two,

233
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:36,200
so you know, but what a
line know I've been out of the business

234
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:41,000
for quite a long time. China
is allegedly on some type of high nuclear

235
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:48,519
alert too. So here I am, oh, incredibly depressed. You know,

236
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:55,119
I had this big fight with some
person we won't talk about. Let's

237
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,759
not get into that. And you
know I was depressing. Then you're thinking

238
00:18:57,799 --> 00:19:03,319
about your life. You know,
I'm starting to climb the ladder in years,

239
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:07,880
you know, my birth dates coming
up, and it's got quite one

240
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,440
of those landmarks. But it's getting
too close for comfort. And I'm saying,

241
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:15,160
you know, I've been waiting since
I was twenty two to make a

242
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,640
decision and do something in my life. And it looks like my life already

243
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:23,599
made the decisions for me, you
know. And here I am what would

244
00:19:23,599 --> 00:19:29,799
you call it in German, I'm
on the drek clas drec cloth. What

245
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,279
is it? Let's just say,
you know, you're on your heinie and

246
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:41,480
effluvia or whatever. And now I'm
realizing how if I had had that successful

247
00:19:41,559 --> 00:19:47,160
career as a lawyer in that it
could all be over in just minutes.

248
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:56,000
Right kids, grandkids, big fat
bank accounts and investments that from years of

249
00:19:56,079 --> 00:20:03,200
hard work. Right, Hey,
I'm gonna I've gone it in my hand.

250
00:20:03,279 --> 00:20:08,400
I'm gonna done it now. Jay's
the half of cheap, cheap,

251
00:20:08,519 --> 00:20:12,359
cheap scotch. At least if I
had done all what I should have done,

252
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:17,680
i'd have a better bottle of scotch
here to celebrate. J Fed is

253
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:25,039
asking, are you almost eighty?
Not quite? Because I will go my

254
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:30,400
back, and sometimes my niece says
otherwise, because I've heard that our President

255
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:37,039
Joseph Robin at Biden actually has a
coffee mug on the resolute desk in the

256
00:20:37,079 --> 00:20:41,400
Oval Office that says life begins at
eighty. So you're just getting started,

257
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:45,519
as far as I can tell.
So the sixty is the new what the

258
00:20:45,559 --> 00:20:52,359
forty sixty is the new fifty nine? I believe, Hey, there you

259
00:20:52,519 --> 00:20:56,880
go, But eighty is the new
seventy seven. As you know, I

260
00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:03,759
was fifty nine for two years,
literally true either that are road fifty eighth

261
00:21:03,759 --> 00:21:07,279
for two years and suddenly was like, hey, I'm sixty. What happened

262
00:21:07,319 --> 00:21:11,480
to be you? What happened to
like fifty nine? I had just forgotten

263
00:21:11,519 --> 00:21:15,119
about it. Well, I think
you have plenty of time left. I

264
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,880
think that you just probably need to
take some vitamins and you're going to have

265
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:22,559
a long we have life, long, healthy life, Mac, Mac,

266
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:30,720
Do we have any time left?
I'm glad that your father on Friday brought

267
00:21:30,799 --> 00:21:37,559
up Saints an Sell the Accountant and
the theory of a just war to a

268
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,920
reincinerated over Ukraine. At least we
know we're going someplace good, Right,

269
00:21:41,519 --> 00:21:45,000
it's not going to happen. John, It's not gonna happen. Oh you

270
00:21:45,039 --> 00:21:48,480
never know, Well, you never
know, but that it's not gonna happen.

271
00:21:48,559 --> 00:21:52,000
Hey, Look, I mean,
the wolf is always at the door

272
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:56,640
regardless. As we've discussed on the
show, we've had some very close calls

273
00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:03,440
over the years because of misunderstandings and
accidents and so forth, Operation able arch

274
00:22:03,519 --> 00:22:06,319
or things like that, and uh, and those are just the ones we

275
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:10,920
know about. So the wolf is
always at the door. So to just

276
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:15,599
go along assuming that we're about to
be devoured, Uh, I don't know

277
00:22:15,599 --> 00:22:18,519
that we're anymore about to be devoured
than at any other point in history.

278
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:25,480
So I know of three times where
we got there, other than Cuba,

279
00:22:25,559 --> 00:22:27,720
that we were very close to nuclear
war. Sure, Well that's what I'm

280
00:22:27,759 --> 00:22:33,160
saying. That's my point. So
you know, there's always the threat is

281
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:37,200
always there. That's That's all I'm
saying. I always always look on the

282
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:41,400
bright side of life. Right well, it's not really looking on the bright,

283
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:45,599
but it's just well it's no,
it's not that, it's just recognizing

284
00:22:45,799 --> 00:22:51,799
that the danger is always there.
So it's not like we should be,

285
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,000
uh, particularly freaked out about anything
right now. I mean, look,

286
00:22:56,079 --> 00:23:00,960
if if I turn on the news
one day and I see that they're actually

287
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,079
beginning to move around that Russia is
beginning to move around some of their news,

288
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,319
and how would you how would you
know that since all of that it

289
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,640
is classified. I'm just saying,
if I turn on the news one day

290
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:18,359
and I see that, then then
I'm going just went on then I'm then

291
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:22,319
I'm going to worry. Then I'll
worry, But until then, I'm really

292
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,480
not. Uh. I got most
of my worrying about that out of the

293
00:23:25,519 --> 00:23:30,079
way growing up. Growing up,
I was very obsessed is probably too strong

294
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,519
of a word, but my dad
knows, you know, he listens to

295
00:23:32,559 --> 00:23:34,599
the show. He knows I was
very preoccupied would probably be the word.

296
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:38,160
With the threat of nuclear war,
and then you know, we had the

297
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:44,680
post Cold War sort of complacency that
everyone fell into, and I guess now

298
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,200
we're supposed to be back to being
worried about it. But I got my

299
00:23:47,279 --> 00:23:48,920
worrying about it out of the way, so I think it's going to be

300
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:53,720
fine. I'm not worrying about it, man, I'm celebrating it. Well,

301
00:23:53,759 --> 00:23:57,559
I'm not going to celebrate anything like
that either, but I just,

302
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:03,640
uh, I think it's going to
be fine. SA cure for death is

303
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:07,480
secure for anything that ails you.
The use there is the songs from the

304
00:24:07,519 --> 00:24:12,400
thirties that love, love is secure
for anything that ails you. But I've

305
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:18,799
never seen the love last that long, you know, or as effective as

306
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:25,720
Penis Villain. And indeed love can
make you well have to get a shot

307
00:24:25,759 --> 00:24:30,680
at Penis zellin Oh God, Death, Death is a cure for all things.

308
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaking of which, as I'm calling
you here, you know, I'm

309
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:42,720
calling you at four the four to
five hour Wednesday because you poached my permanent

310
00:24:42,759 --> 00:24:48,720
guests, which doubtles my show,
he said, somewhat facetiously. And now

311
00:24:48,759 --> 00:24:52,160
he's not even he's not even here
on the hour. No, no,

312
00:24:52,599 --> 00:24:56,599
because of his schedule being what it
is, He's now joining me in the

313
00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:00,119
second hour on Wednesdays. Eric is
not able to get uh, get to

314
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,200
me in the first hour, which
means uh that, Uh, no,

315
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:12,759
I did not poach your guest.
You did poach my guests, but yeah,

316
00:25:12,799 --> 00:25:15,279
he's not available in the first hour, which is when your show is

317
00:25:15,279 --> 00:25:18,920
on. If I had if I, if I had nuclear weapons, it's

318
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:22,119
like, you know, if I
was a souzarain of my own Sozoraanty,

319
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:26,519
we'd have been, uh you know, jockeying for position. I'm not saying

320
00:25:26,559 --> 00:25:30,559
I would have won. I would
have wouldn't would have backed on right,

321
00:25:30,839 --> 00:25:37,400
because as you've noticed, my enthusiasm
for doing my show has a sharp shactly

322
00:25:37,559 --> 00:25:41,119
decreased. Yeah, it did.
Uh, it did occur to me.

323
00:25:41,559 --> 00:25:45,440
Uh. Actually that you're supposed to
be, aren't you supposed to be on

324
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,880
the air doing your show right now? Nice? But you know, I

325
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:53,279
remember when I wound up with that, when I moved from seven at night,

326
00:25:53,559 --> 00:25:59,279
uh to four on a Wednesday,
you laughed at me. H you'd

327
00:25:59,279 --> 00:26:03,000
already you know, had made transition
to the radio and it's given up your

328
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:07,880
public actress show. Little did I
know that at four o'clock in the afternoon,

329
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,279
it's like a you know, well, it's kind of like a depth

330
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:17,359
swaw my TV. Yeah, necessarily
that radio, but TV. And I

331
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:22,640
was rereading a novel by Norman Maaylor
where his main character had as a psychologist

332
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:29,079
who had a public TV sho It
was at for that fourth It's like,

333
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:33,440
oh my god, Yeah, but
I didn't. Yeah, just because four

334
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:38,000
in the afternoon worked for Oprah doesn't
mean it's going to work for everybody.

335
00:26:38,599 --> 00:26:45,000
Yeah, So you know, I
just don't like doing shows alone. I

336
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:49,720
never know what I might say or
do. M all right, I might

337
00:26:49,799 --> 00:26:57,039
act up or a miliate myself or
my family or assorted group of assorted groups

338
00:26:57,039 --> 00:27:03,440
of people and my other a regular
guest whose names, at least one of

339
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:07,559
them, we can't talk about.
They just disappeared. I don't know what

340
00:27:07,759 --> 00:27:11,079
happened to them. I think might
have to ask Rocky Hubert what happened to

341
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:12,960
them? They might have who knows, They might have been kidnapped by an

342
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:18,599
intelligent gas from Venus or something.
Right, Well, that's as good as

343
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:26,359
that. There's a lot of that
going wrong. M somebody's trying to call

344
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:29,640
me, it says Concord, New
Hampshire. I think I think my boat's

345
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:34,720
come in that. Oh good,
good, well, yeah, whatever's left

346
00:27:34,759 --> 00:27:37,839
over from one hundred and twenty five
dollars. After I buy my license plate

347
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:45,279
and my Speaker of the House name
tag, we'll have a big party over

348
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:52,319
at the over at the pop Nott. Well, well, good as we

349
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:56,559
should. Yes, there should be
about ten or twelve dollars left over.

350
00:27:56,880 --> 00:28:03,200
Okay, well, very all right, Matt, keep the your flag flying.

351
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:10,880
Yes, you know, nuclear terror
is uh is very debilitating. Uh

352
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,759
huh I've overcome it with a very
positive attitude that it's a good thing.

353
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:22,839
And uh, yes, yes it
is. Now you take care all right,

354
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:26,240
I'm gonna go count my money,
that all that money I piled up

355
00:28:26,279 --> 00:28:30,279
in my sixty some odd years.
Wow, it might take me all of

356
00:28:30,319 --> 00:28:34,880
about two and a half minutes.
Wow, I got a lot of change

357
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:40,039
I have to go through. Yes, yes, we're waking the quarters dimes.

358
00:28:41,279 --> 00:28:44,200
Okay, all right, John,
thank you for the call. Bye

359
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,920
bye. All right. That was
the great John Hopwood. Yeah he should

360
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,400
be doing a television show right now. Actually, but but no, well

361
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:53,440
that does open up the studio line
for you. Six O three two five

362
00:28:53,480 --> 00:29:00,640
oh six oh seven six o three
two five oh six oh seven. Uh

363
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,960
could have done without all the death
talk. To be honest with you,

364
00:29:03,039 --> 00:29:06,920
After the weekend I had. But
I do love John. I do love

365
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,880
John. Melanie in the chat room
says, you support Hopwood's choices. Wow,

366
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:15,680
that's a risky move. Charles Richardson
joins us in the Facebook laugh chat

367
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:23,920
and says, it's happy hour.
Hello, Charles, let's see. Charles

368
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,799
says, you haven't a drink.
I think you have had many drinks so

369
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:33,960
far. No, I don't.
I doubt it. I doubt it.

370
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:38,240
Melanie says is it me or as
Hopwood saying nuclear weird? No, I

371
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,519
think John. I believe John always
pronounces it correctly. There are a lot

372
00:29:41,519 --> 00:29:47,279
of people who mispronounce nuclear, though. Some people pronounce it nuculear, which

373
00:29:47,359 --> 00:29:52,400
is almost like a dyslexic way of
saying it because you're you have to literally

374
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:56,400
rearrange some of the letters to pronounce
it that way nuculear. But but no,

375
00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,400
it's it is nuclear, and I
I think John does say it correctly.

376
00:30:03,119 --> 00:30:06,240
Scott Robinson says, when is Hopwood
going to be on the show for

377
00:30:06,319 --> 00:30:11,160
a full day? We need John
he has sorely missed. Yeah, John

378
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:12,720
hasn't been on for a while.
You know, he comes and goes,

379
00:30:12,839 --> 00:30:17,200
comes and goes. You know,
sometimes there will be a stretch where he'll

380
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:18,519
be on. You know, he'll
pop in like once a week, and

381
00:30:18,519 --> 00:30:22,960
then I won't see him for like
months. Joe Friday says, there is

382
00:30:23,039 --> 00:30:30,079
a oh fire versus Police on October
fourteenth, Fire versus Police baseball at Fishercat

383

00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,680

That's a great cause. Very good,

388
00:30:53,319 --> 00:30:57,279
Thank you, Joe Friday. Crystal
in the chatroom says, hello everyone from

389
00:30:57,319 --> 00:31:11,079
of course a great state of Illinois. Let's see uh. John Hopwood said

390
00:31:11,079 --> 00:31:17,880
in the shower room, John Hopwood

00:31:23,839 --> 00:31:26,160
in the coming up today in the
second hour, we'll be joined by my

394
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:30,759
favorite, my favorite conservative as I
call him, Eric Pilcher from Cedar Rapids,

395
00:31:30,839 --> 00:31:37,559
Iowa. In the meantime should we
Oh you know what, Actually there's

396
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:47,000
all the fallout from uh from Kevin
McCarthy's ouster, but something else, uh

397
00:31:47,119 --> 00:31:51,160
that is directly related to the the
Granite State where we are here in New

398
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:55,759
Hampshire that Jenny just sent me.
This is from wmu R, who I'm

399
00:31:55,799 --> 00:32:00,519
sure will clean up tonight at the
New Hampshire Association of Brocasters Awards because as

400
00:32:00,559 --> 00:32:04,279
I uh not like to go.
You know, we had somebody on the

401
00:32:04,279 --> 00:32:07,400
show the other day from WJYY one
O five point five and conquered, and

402
00:32:08,319 --> 00:32:10,279
he was in one of the bands
that I had on the show. He's

403
00:32:10,279 --> 00:32:15,960
in Pointless Culture, the drummer there
Harrison. Tonight he asked me off air

404
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:20,319
about the awards and I joked with
him that around here we refer to it

405
00:32:20,359 --> 00:32:25,640
as the wmu R wgi R Awards. Anyway, Uh, this is this

406
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:30,400
is from WMUR dot com. Juliani. Uh, around here we call him

407
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:37,759
Rudy. Juliani sues Biden in New
Hampshire for comments made during Nashville debate.

408
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:45,240
UH. New Hampshire attorney says law
allows for defamation claims because the debate aired

409
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,440
in the state. Okay, I
don't know what this is about. Let's

410
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:51,960
see, we'll learn together. If
you don't know the story already. And

411
00:32:52,039 --> 00:32:54,359
this was just updated a little bit
ago, says here. Former New York

412
00:32:54,519 --> 00:33:00,400
Mayor Rudy Giuliani has filed a defamation
lawsuit in New Hampshire against President Joe Biden

413
00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:05,599
for comments made in a twenty twenty
debate in Nashville. Hey, by the

414
00:33:05,599 --> 00:33:10,200
way, how does Juliani this is? This is probably an obvious question.

415
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:14,799
I can't be the only one wondering
this. How does Juliani even have any

416
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:19,480
money to be filing a lawsuit like
this? He can't even pay his existing

417
00:33:19,559 --> 00:33:23,839
legal bills, but he's got money
to file a lawsuit against President Biden over

418
00:33:24,279 --> 00:33:30,400
this defamation suit. Is somebody doing
this for him as a favor? Maybe

419
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:34,440
he's representing himself, I don't know, says here. Juliani a close associate

420
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:39,240
of former President Donald Trump. Yes, actually not only a close associate.

421
00:33:39,279 --> 00:33:44,079
They tried to They tried to overturn
an election together. I don't know if

422
00:33:44,119 --> 00:33:45,359
you all know that. I don't
know if if you pay attention to that

423
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:49,519
kind of thing, some of you
are probably aware. Anyway, Yes,

424
00:33:49,599 --> 00:33:52,680
Julianni a close associate of former President
Donald Trump, was joined by New Hampshire

425
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:59,880
attorney William O'Brien. Oh, it's
amazing how things go full circle. Speaking

426
00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:04,119
of a Speaker of the House,
I mean, I assume it's the same

427
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:07,320
Bill O'Brien, although that's probably an
extremely common name, so maybe it's not,

428
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,320
but I assume it is. Bill
O'Brien used to be the Speaker of

429
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:14,880
the House here in New Hampshire.
I've met Bill O'Brien. Actually, I

430
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,079
hung out with him a little bit. He's at an event that I went

431
00:34:17,119 --> 00:34:22,239
to. We talked for a while. Nice guy. I'd probably never vote

432
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:28,679
for him, but nice guy anyway. So Bill O'Brien and New York attorney

433
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:35,360
Lewis Diamond in making the announcement.
They joined Juliani in making the announcement.

434
00:34:35,559 --> 00:34:40,760
In the lawsuit, Giuliani is accusing
Biden of making defamatory and false statements during

435
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:47,119
the debate, including saying that Giuliani
was quote being used as a Russian pawn.

436
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,679
What he did to me is intolerable. He called me a Russian operative.

437
00:34:53,039 --> 00:35:01,559
That's a lie, that is false
unquote right, Well, it's calling

438
00:35:01,599 --> 00:35:06,800
him a Russian pawn. The same
as calling him a Russian operative, because

439
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:12,480
to me, that's not the same
thing. Am I am I getting to

440
00:35:12,559 --> 00:35:15,679
anto the weeds. I mean,
maybe I'm overthinking it, but to me,

441
00:35:15,039 --> 00:35:19,679
if someone's a pawn, When I
hear the word pawn, I think

442
00:35:19,679 --> 00:35:22,639
if someone being used by someone.
You know, if you're somebody's pawn,

443
00:35:22,679 --> 00:35:30,320
they're using you for something. Whereas
an operative, if he were a Russian

444
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:37,400
operative, that would mean he would
be doing things on behalf of the Russians.

445
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,880
But a pawn is like another way
of saying a useful idiot, like

446
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:45,840
someone who's being used, but they
don't necessarily know that they're being used.

447
00:35:45,159 --> 00:35:50,599
So to me, that's not even
the same thing. If Biden, literally,

448
00:35:51,039 --> 00:35:53,079
if Biden called him a Russian pawn, that's not the same thing as

449
00:35:53,119 --> 00:35:58,079
calling him a Russian operative. That's
like calling him a dupe who's being used

450
00:35:58,119 --> 00:36:05,800
by the Russians. Is that?
I mean, this is going to be

451
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,440
a difficult case to prove, I
think. And by the way, it's

452
00:36:08,599 --> 00:36:13,679
politics. I mean, I understand, you know, you have to be

453
00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,440
careful. You can't go around to
faming people, right you get sued for

454
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:21,599
defamation. But it's politics. People
say horrible things about each other all the

455
00:36:21,679 --> 00:36:25,920
time. It's one politician saying something
bad about another. You can sue somebody

456
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:31,440
for that. Like somebody makes an
offhand comment in a debate calling Rudy Giuliani

457
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:45,960
a Russian pond really says here O'Brien
said that because the debate aired on television

458
00:36:45,039 --> 00:36:51,679
in New Hampshire, a statute allows
him to recover damages in the Granite State.

459
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:59,400
Hmm, we have a call.
Hi, Welcome to Matt Connors and

460
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:10,159
unleashed too. I figured Colin twice
today to irritate the haters. Okay,

461
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:15,519
the hate be so real, Matt. And as somebody who has been sued

462
00:37:15,559 --> 00:37:22,480
for defamation, I was thinking about
that. That's Matt pawn is a you

463
00:37:22,519 --> 00:37:27,880
know, just as you said it. He could have called him a cat's

464
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:35,159
paw or something, you know,
or it's it's furthermore, it's an opinion.

465
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:39,039
You know, he's not saying this
is a Russian agent. Right.

466
00:37:39,159 --> 00:37:47,039
This seems pretty frivolous, does it
not. Agent agent is opposed to an

467
00:37:47,079 --> 00:37:52,280
officer like James Bond would be an
officer. An agent is somebody you know

468
00:37:52,519 --> 00:38:00,599
that has a like somebody that's connected
to the mob. Right. But but

469
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:05,800
he's Yeah, but he's in Manchester. He's in New Hampshire that Giuliani made

470
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:13,280
this statement. Did you catch that? Well, yeah, yeah, he's

471
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:17,519
he's he was in New Hampshire to
announce us. Yes, in New Hampshire

472
00:38:17,519 --> 00:38:22,920
to announced this. Uh, because
the debate, because he's working with Bill

473
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,480
O'Brien and this other attorney, and
the debate aired, and I guess the

474
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:30,320
debate must have taken place in New
Hampshire. It aired on New Hampshire television.

475
00:38:31,079 --> 00:38:36,559
So it really is Bill O'Brien who
was the Speaker of the House,

476
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:40,880
and I remember interviewing him. Yeah, and then I interviewed Johnson Unhu,

477
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,639
the patriarch to the new Plan.
They just liked each other, but I

478
00:38:45,679 --> 00:38:51,760
won't share the things they said.
Yeah. One of the things about defamation

479
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:57,280
in New Hampshire, it's one of
the states with a loose a looser definition

480
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:05,039
of defamation, so it's a place
that people can use, like Giuliani's doing

481
00:39:05,079 --> 00:39:09,840
now to sue. That's what I
was told by out of state lawyer that

482
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:20,679
New Hampshire it has less stringent law. Yeah, that's not to say that

483
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:24,679
he has any chance of winning.
No, this is extremely frivolous and how

484
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:30,400
does he have the money to even
do this. He's selling his apartment in

485
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:34,800
New York City because he can't afford
to pay his life. He's actually Rudy

486
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:38,199
Giuliani right now is actually being sued
by one of his own lawyers, who

487
00:39:38,199 --> 00:39:40,920
he owes a ton of money to. That lawyer is now suing him to

488
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:45,079
try to get his money, and
apparently they're lifelong friends. So how does

489
00:39:45,079 --> 00:39:49,519
he even have the money to file
a lawsuit like this, which is probably

490
00:39:49,519 --> 00:39:53,239
why he's picked New Hampshire as the
venue because Bill O'Brien is probably doing it

491
00:39:53,280 --> 00:40:00,360
for nothing or not a very nominal
fee. Ah, whereas a file in

492
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:06,079
a state with a higher bar of
the proof for defamation, and you know,

493
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:10,280
there's very few people that win defamation
suits. I always had a defamation

494
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:15,440
suit file against me for writing a
petition for someone about something we're not going

495
00:40:15,519 --> 00:40:20,280
to talk about because it's local politics, and it was thrown off with the

496
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,960
judge all but calling the person that
sued me a politician that we don't talk

497
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:29,159
about, a liar. Yeah,
you know, it's it's a process that

498
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:38,760
goes on for months, Yeah,
yeah, Bill, Bill, Bill O'Brien's

499
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:45,000
probably just doing it because he's he's
practically irrelevant. Now do we have any

500
00:40:45,039 --> 00:40:50,840
idea who does he have a candidate
in the New Hampshire primary, the Republican

501
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:54,000
primary. I don't know. I
mean, I haven't even noticed Bill O'Brien

502
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:58,840
in a long time. I thought
he was I thought he was pretty much

503
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,400
out of politics at this although I
know he's been out of it before and

504
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:05,679
he's come back. But I thought
he was. I thought he was done.

505
00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:07,880
I thought he was just, you
know, practicing a lot at this

506
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:09,440
point. I didn't, so I
don't know. Maybe he's trying to get

507
00:41:09,519 --> 00:41:12,800
back in. I don't know what's
going on here, but I find it

508
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:16,840
very odd for people that aren't from
New Hampshire. Jenny, who knows,

509
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:22,079
you know, having been here in
the House and in the leadership New Hampshire.

510
00:41:22,599 --> 00:41:30,320
A speaker House doesn't last very long. We've got plenty unlike you know

511
00:41:30,679 --> 00:41:35,320
how it's supposed to be in the
United States. But it just might be

512
00:41:36,079 --> 00:41:39,559
Rudy Giuliani. This is my opinion. I don't want to wind up being

513
00:41:39,599 --> 00:41:45,119
super defamation teams narcissistic, which is
probably one of the reasons he bonded with

514
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:52,880
Trump and he just needed a hit
of you know, an ego adrenaline.

515
00:41:52,559 --> 00:41:57,519
So this is a place for two
hundred and seventy one dollars he can file

516
00:41:57,679 --> 00:42:05,599
us you know. Oh so yeah, but it's ridiculous. It's an opinion.

517
00:42:05,679 --> 00:42:09,760
The word pawn, I mean pawn
is and the pawn being the weakest

518
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:14,519
part of a chess board. That's
like you're less than a cats par you're

519
00:42:14,559 --> 00:42:17,199
less in a stalking horse. All
stuff that really doesn't you know, They're

520
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:22,679
just metaphors that don't really mean anything. It's like right now they're saying Bobby

521
00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:29,679
Kennedy Junior gonna always meant to run
as an independent and now mediate me.

522
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,599
Is it how you pronounce it?
Media? Hete yes, it's it's like

523
00:42:34,039 --> 00:42:39,719
Mediaite is saying the sources say he's
intending. Sources inside his campaign close to

524
00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:45,480
him say he's been intending to do
this third party uh run to help Biden,

525
00:42:46,679 --> 00:42:50,599
so which would be a stalking horse. But you know, how do

526
00:42:50,639 --> 00:42:52,920
you prove stuff like that? But
when you use words like that, you

527
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:57,199
know, but if you said,
yes, somebody is a Russian agent,

528
00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:05,800
you know it's it's it's a asthetic. Last gas from a pathetic person who

529
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:09,880
He's not bleeding hair dye anymore.
He's just bleeding the last vestiges of his

530
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:15,800
self respect. Trump's all right,
man, Trump, Trump, give him

531
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:21,960
the haters something to hate. I'm
going to hang up and wait till five

532
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:28,360
o'clock, till that traitor is Eric
comes on the show. Yeah, he

533
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:32,679
might be a Maybe Eric's a Russian
pawn. I don't know if he's a

534
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:38,400
Russian pawn. But now that he
is doing a review of the Exorcist,

535
00:43:39,039 --> 00:43:44,440
well there is the Catholic doctrine,
which you know, I had something that

536
00:43:44,519 --> 00:43:47,880
I wrote about a long time ago, but which William Peter Bladdie who wrote

537
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:52,320
The Exorcist, which is a real
great pot boiler. I mean, you

538
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,559
just picked the book up. You
can't put it down. Yeah, based

539
00:43:54,639 --> 00:43:58,679
on if you think of the devil, you've invited the devil, and to

540
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:02,199
think about you invited into your lives. That's why you have to be so

541
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:07,199
wary about stuff like the Ouiji boards. That's in the novel and it's in

542
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:12,320
the movie too. So I just
feel sad about Eric. You know,

543
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:16,480
he is the Protestant I believe,
and so the bar of letting the devil

544
00:44:16,559 --> 00:44:23,280
in might be higher, you know, higher with Catholics. It's like the

545
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:27,400
state of New Hampshire in defamation.
If you're a Catholic, you know,

546
00:44:27,519 --> 00:44:30,599
all that guilt and stuff. You
know, the devil can get right in

547
00:44:30,119 --> 00:44:34,480
very easily, you know, just
to you know, that's not good.

548
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:37,400
I don't know. I don't really
think about the devil, you know.

549
00:44:38,159 --> 00:44:42,559
Apparently you shouldn't think about the devil, because then the devil might be thinking

550
00:44:42,559 --> 00:44:45,079
about you. So I think we've
learned something today, right, that's right,

551
00:44:45,119 --> 00:44:51,280
that's right, And now I'm going
to have my second shot of Scotch

552
00:44:51,679 --> 00:44:57,280
Charles Richardson, because it doesn't take
any substances to screw me up. I'm

553
00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:00,440
already screwed up. Okay, John, thanks for the call. Buy bye.

554
00:45:01,559 --> 00:45:05,079
All right, if you'd like to
get anyone with a quick call before

555
00:45:05,079 --> 00:45:07,239
the top of the hour, the
studio line is opened, it'll just have

556
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:10,079
to be I would ask you to
be terse but six h three two five

557
00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:15,559
six seven six oh three two five
six seven. Just to finish up on

558
00:45:15,599 --> 00:45:17,800
this, O'Brien said that because the
debate aired on television in New Hampshire,

559
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:22,320
a statute allows him to recover damages
in the Granite State. By the way,

560
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:27,880
how do you even prove damages on
something like that. O'Brien also said,

561
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:30,400
quote, we have a rule in
New Hampshire called the single publication rule,

562
00:45:31,119 --> 00:45:35,519
and what that rule means is that
when you can establish that a defamation

563
00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:40,559
occurred within the jurisdiction within New Hampshire, the plaintiff can recover for each instance

564
00:45:40,639 --> 00:45:46,039
it occurred elsewhere. Unquote. Okay, So if the debate aired here in

565
00:45:46,079 --> 00:45:51,119
New Hampshire, but it was also
shown elsewhere, I guess Juliani is requesting

566
00:45:51,159 --> 00:45:54,360
a jury trial and is asking the
judge to order Biden to publicly acknowledge the

567
00:45:54,400 --> 00:46:04,679
allegations and pay him damages. Alrighty. Then Christal said in the chat room,

568
00:46:04,679 --> 00:46:07,840
maybe Giuliani has the money, but
his accounts are frozen until his legal

569
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:14,480
issues are resolved. I don't know. I don't know. The last I

570
00:46:14,559 --> 00:46:17,719
heard was he was selling his New
York apartment for like six million dollars because

571
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:22,360
you know, he's having difficulty paying
his legal bills. Oh, and Trump

572
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:25,159
recently had a fundraiser. Why what
a guy? Huh? Trump recently had

573
00:46:25,159 --> 00:46:31,800
a fundraiser for his h his friend
Rudy Giuliani to try to help him.

574
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:36,239
Oh, Chris Rose from the Commonwealth
of Massachusetts joins us in the chat.

575
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:39,559
Hello, Chris, John Hopwood says, to get damages, you have to

576
00:46:39,679 --> 00:46:46,000
have a reputation that is damaged.
He has no reputation anymore. Apparently Bill

577
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:51,639
O'Brien's still Bill. Bill O'Brien must
think Giuliani has a reputation because he's willing

578
00:46:51,679 --> 00:46:55,400
to associate his name with him.
I don't know who he would do that.

579
00:46:57,519 --> 00:47:00,880
Anyway, we are close to the
top of the hour, so let's

580
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:04,800
go ahead and do this. We'll
play a little music, we'll show some

581
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:07,000
love to our amazing sponsors, and
then we'll be back with our number two

582
00:47:07,159 --> 00:47:10,960
New Marrow dose. I think our
friend Eric Piltree is gonna be joining us

583
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:15,239
at'll maybe ten past the hour,
quarter past the hour. He's going to

584
00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:16,159
try to get to us as soon
as he can. I know that,

585
00:47:16,599 --> 00:47:22,039
and always enjoy speaking with Eric and
look forward to hearing his looking forward to

586
00:47:22,079 --> 00:47:28,800
hearing him speak about the speaker,
getting his thoughts on that. So let's

587
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:31,519
play a little Jerry, Little Jerry
Robinson here. I do love this song

588
00:47:31,679 --> 00:47:37,519
Unicycle. I wish I could play
for you the uncensored version because there's a

589
00:47:37,559 --> 00:47:40,079
line in it that is beyond hilarious. But I had to make a radio

590
00:47:40,199 --> 00:47:44,400
edit for this one. But it
is my favorite of the Jerry and the

591
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:47,719
Scumbags songs. It is my absolute
favorite. So this is the one I

592
00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:51,679
like to go to. There's a
bass player on this who's really good.

593
00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:55,159
His name's Matt Covington. Anyway,
here it is. This is a unicycle

594
00:47:55,159 --> 00:48:25,840
from Jerry and the Scumbags and more
unleashed coming up, don't go away.

595
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:37,719
When when I was a boy,
all I mean, don man all this

596
00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:44,239
one as me boy that I was
when I was a kid, I get

597
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:51,639
my face up me and not boiless
with geese. I wasn't always a school

598
00:48:52,159 --> 00:48:59,280
and bom but when I was,
I was that dump. I had't always

599
00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:09,519
dum had some ing school poles fill
us. I remember of the mansions and

600
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:19,039
big member Mom. It feels like
someone that stopped me unsad fuck o,

601

When I was at school, even my

604
00:49:58,039 --> 00:50:04,079
good grades, I was still being
no cool. When I was still young,

605
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:10,440
all I care about round was girls. But the dig my membles used

606
00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:19,400
to be just a w moore day
dream cry on the floor. Day it

607
00:50:19,559 --> 00:50:25,079
was a word and me U my
milk money taking. When I was growing

608
00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:37,719
up, I remember a man was
big, dona long, feels like someone

609
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:45,840
in the shop, not tame likes
of my mom. I j I go

go with no sing down a bob.

611
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:20,599
You know when I was a boy
and my father used to look down at

612
00:51:20,679 --> 00:51:25,159
me and saying, what guy,
hell I say, go outside and gut

613

six comcasts today, of course is
Wednesday, October fourth, two thy twenty

661
00:59:57,719 --> 01:00:00,880
three, and I believe our friend
Eric Pilcher is on the line. Eric,

662
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:05,000
Is that you, Yes, it
is Matt. Sorry, I have

663
01:00:05,159 --> 01:00:07,360
to call in and that skype in
because I'm on the go right now.

664
01:00:07,800 --> 01:00:15,400
That's okay. Yes. John Hopwood
was lamenting earlier that that I had stolen

665
01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:20,079
you away from him, and I
said, how's that even possible? Eric

666
01:00:20,159 --> 01:00:24,559
joins me now during the second hour. Well, here's the thing is,

667
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:30,760
I'm not trying to put anyone on
the spot or anything, but John Hopwood

668
01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:36,599
has not contacted me to take part
in his show. Yes, yes,

669
01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:40,440
so I would love to be back
on his show again because I do love

670
01:00:40,559 --> 01:00:45,800
conversing with John Hopwood. Yes.
Well, but with your current schedule it

671
01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:49,480
wouldn't be possible anyway. He's on
Wednesdays at four on John twenty three.

672
01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:53,679
I mean we could always pre record
something for her options, and I would

673
01:00:53,760 --> 01:01:01,199
be willing to hear what those options
are. Ah. Yes, what flexibility

674
01:01:01,519 --> 01:01:06,960
is the key with me? Yeah, and you're very flexible with me.

675
01:01:07,119 --> 01:01:12,159
That's why this is a great working
relationship. By the way, John in

676
01:01:12,239 --> 01:01:16,199
the chat room in all caps says, that is a small technicality, Eric

677
01:01:16,360 --> 01:01:22,440
Pilchard, He's I'm not saying your
name correctly. Now, Well there's someone

678
01:01:22,639 --> 01:01:27,280
there's someone else who doesn't say my
name correctly. There are a few variations,

679
01:01:27,320 --> 01:01:30,079
and of course your stage name and
Jerry and the Scumbags is Eric Pincher.

680
01:01:30,559 --> 01:01:35,239
Yes, you know, we you
know. I'm very proud of my

681
01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:39,440
work with Jerry and the Scumbags.
I can't wait to get my r i

682
01:01:39,719 --> 01:01:44,719
AA platinum recording album. I know, right, that's gonna be sweet.

683
01:01:45,599 --> 01:01:50,679
That's not an easy thing to get
in the streaming era, but as it

684
01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:53,679
continues to streak up the chart,
so I'm confident that that day will come

685
01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:59,440
soon. Yes, I mean,
just something else I can add to my

686
01:01:59,559 --> 01:02:05,480
resume. You know that you have
filled out amazingly that. Oh I do

687
01:02:05,639 --> 01:02:08,679
appreciate that. Yes, well,
happy to happy to it to help of

688
01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:14,440
course we have should we uh?
Should we talk about uh? I mean

689
01:02:14,440 --> 01:02:17,880
we can remind everyone later, but
should we talk about The Exorcist? Uh?

690
01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:24,000
You went to h? Yeah?
Go ahead? Yes, I saw

691
01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:30,599
it again in theaters this Sunday,
Yes, Sunday night, and it is

692
01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:37,039
still to me the scariest film ever
made. M h. I just I

693
01:02:37,199 --> 01:02:44,119
don't think anything he touches it and
any it's like any film that deals with

694
01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:51,239
possession. Tries to copy it and
you can't copy it. Well, I

695
01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:55,360
can't even think, Eric, what
what other films are are there other because

696
01:02:55,400 --> 01:02:59,079
I can't think of anything offhand.
I mean, obviously I know there are

697
01:02:59,119 --> 01:03:04,199
others, but is there another film
or are there other films that try to

698
01:03:04,239 --> 01:03:08,280
really kind of do do something similar
to The Exorcism that way, the one

699
01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:14,320
that uh, there's a new one
called the Pope Sexorcist or the Pope Sexorism.

700
01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:20,519
It's like any time you deal with
devil possession, they try to take

701
01:03:20,719 --> 01:03:25,719
elements from the Exorcists, and it
just comes off as unauthentic, fake in

702
01:03:25,920 --> 01:03:31,400
phony because here's my belief and you
caught me on a team get and I'm

703
01:03:31,480 --> 01:03:37,360
sorry, man, oh sorry.
Is to make a truly great film,

704
01:03:38,519 --> 01:03:45,440
one that stands the test of time. It's fifty years later and people still

705
01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:52,679
are in aw the Exorcist, you
have to have the perfect blend, great

706
01:03:52,800 --> 01:04:00,679
writer, great director, great cast, a little bit of controversy. Exorcist

707
01:04:00,960 --> 01:04:03,960
had all of that. You look
at some of the people in that film,

708
01:04:04,079 --> 01:04:11,760
it's their greatest performance. Ellen Burston
her greatest performance, Jason Miller her

709
01:04:11,920 --> 01:04:23,480
graded his gradest. Linda Blair are
arguably her gradest, so William Friedkin.

710
01:04:23,719 --> 01:04:28,519
Other than the French Connection, probably
his greatest go as a director, although

711
01:04:28,599 --> 01:04:32,119
To Live and Die in La I
think is very underrated as a film,

712
01:04:36,199 --> 01:04:43,480
and and I think the Wang Chung
Song is also very underrated. Well,

713
01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:49,760
there's nothing about Wang Chung that is
underrated. They are very fairly trashed in

714
01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:55,239
dash. Oh no, I have
to disagree with you there. I love

715
01:04:55,280 --> 01:05:00,280
wag Chung, but I digress.
You know, the only thing I think

716
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:05,119
when I think of Wang Chung I
think of the line from Austin Powers when

717
01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:11,639
he's like, we will call it
the Alan Parsons Project, and Scott Evil

718
01:05:11,679 --> 01:05:15,800
goes, how about you call it
Operation wang Chung? Yeah, yeah,

719
01:05:17,119 --> 01:05:21,119
so yeah, I mean I'm not
overly familiar with their works. I just

720
01:05:23,199 --> 01:05:29,519
yeah, so uh. But but
so there are others. So you mentioned

721
01:05:29,599 --> 01:05:33,599
you mentioned one other other film.
I feel like it's a subject that probably

722
01:05:34,960 --> 01:05:41,519
I mean it is, uh,
it's probably considered a little bit taboo in

723
01:05:41,599 --> 01:05:48,360
this both what was that? It's
probably sorry? Who was that? A

724
01:05:48,639 --> 01:05:55,280
very very piece of piece of junk
car that needs a tune up? Very

725
01:05:55,360 --> 01:06:00,320
bad? Okay, See in Cedar
Rapids, we don't emission cat star vicck

726
01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:04,639
holes. Yeah to make them road
worthy? Yeah, we probably should.

727
01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:11,039
What we don't. I understand.
I understand. So a lot of people

728
01:06:12,039 --> 01:06:17,199
have horrible VHIC holes. I see, yes, So what uh I mean?

729
01:06:17,239 --> 01:06:21,960
I mean it's probably considered a somewhat
uh taboo subject, right, because

730
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:27,119
it's because the thing about exorcism is, you know, I mean, you

731
01:06:27,199 --> 01:06:30,599
know, you can in the if
you want to put that in the horror

732
01:06:30,920 --> 01:06:32,280
movie genre, which I don't know
where else you would put it. Really,

733
01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:36,800
you know, it's one thing to
make a film about were wolves or

734
01:06:38,199 --> 01:06:43,159
zombies or whatever. But when you
deal with something like exorcism, you're dealing

735
01:06:43,239 --> 01:06:48,960
with something that a lot of people
think is real. And and maybe you

736
01:06:49,079 --> 01:06:55,559
do. I don't know, maybe
I do. I mean I've I've known

737
01:06:55,599 --> 01:06:59,639
a couple of people who have told
me some some personal stories of experiences they've

738
01:06:59,639 --> 01:07:01,559
had where I go, wow,
that's really a but but but you know

739
01:07:01,599 --> 01:07:05,559
what I mean, it's like you're
you're dealing with something that that a lot

740
01:07:05,639 --> 01:07:11,440
of people are open. And I
think that's what makes the Exorcist so frightening.

741
01:07:11,559 --> 01:07:15,719
It's like, are we sure that
this is just a horror movie or

742
01:07:16,280 --> 01:07:21,800
does this actually happen? You know
what I mean? Right, here's here's

743
01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:28,880
my take, and I I want
to preface this by saying, I would

744
01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:32,360
appreciate you don't have to agree with
my beliefs, but I would appreciate respect

745
01:07:32,480 --> 01:07:39,480
for my belief Sure, sure,
as I have shown everyone respect for their

746
01:07:39,639 --> 01:07:44,840
belief thoughts and opinion. Yeah,
I do believe baptism of the Holy Spirit

747
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:49,800
is a very real thing. M
speaking in tongues and all of that,

748
01:07:50,039 --> 01:07:57,960
I believe is real. So conversely, I believe you can you cannot have

749
01:07:59,760 --> 01:08:06,719
good without evil, can't have It
goes back to the whole Star Trek analogy.

750
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:12,719
When the good Kirk and the evil
Kirk they were separated, neither of

751
01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:15,399
them could survive. Oh yeah,
Yeah, that's one of my favorite episodes,

752
01:08:17,159 --> 01:08:21,439
one of mine too, very underrated
episode and very early in the show's

753
01:08:21,560 --> 01:08:30,119
run. I do believe people can
be possessed by the devil. And I

754
01:08:30,279 --> 01:08:36,039
think that's why The Exorcist is so
scary and heroly, because we're taking something

755
01:08:36,239 --> 01:08:45,239
innocent as a young child and doubled
down on that a young female, yeah,

756
01:08:45,239 --> 01:08:56,159
and interjecting pure, unadulterated evil into
her. And I think that's why

757
01:08:56,399 --> 01:09:02,479
it is so powerful, so scary, trite me to this gay Yeah,

758
01:09:03,079 --> 01:09:08,239
you know what have you ever had
anyone, you ever have anyone tell you

759
01:09:08,359 --> 01:09:13,159
a story, and for whatever reason, the particular story that this person is

760
01:09:13,239 --> 01:09:18,079
telling you, it's you can.
You can. Some people are just really

761
01:09:18,079 --> 01:09:21,680
good storytellers. But you know where, But has anyone ever told you a

762
01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:26,399
story where, even though you're just
hearing them talk about it, you can

763
01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:30,399
really kind of something about the story
or maybe the way that they're telling it,

764
01:09:30,560 --> 01:09:33,279
You can really get a clear picture
of what they're explaining to you.

765
01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:40,760
Yes, I had so. So
I mean, as far as the reason

766
01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:43,159
I say that, I say that
to preface what I'm about to and I

767
01:09:43,199 --> 01:09:47,119
don't think I've ever repeated this before
what I'm about to say, but well,

768
01:09:47,159 --> 01:09:49,039
the part I have repeated, of
course, is you know, I'm

769
01:09:49,079 --> 01:09:54,079
not a religious person myself, and
I'm I'm pretty skeptical about all of this,

770
01:09:54,279 --> 01:09:58,039
and so naturally I'm not I'm not
predisposed to believing in in things like

771
01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:01,800
possession and things like that. But
I'll tell you something that has always stuck

772
01:10:01,880 --> 01:10:05,600
with me. Eric. When I
was in junior high school, I had

773
01:10:05,640 --> 01:10:12,800
an English teacher named mister Phelps,
and mister Phelps told a lot of stories.

774
01:10:12,920 --> 01:10:14,920
He was a great guy. He
was one of my favorite teachers.

775
01:10:14,960 --> 01:10:19,560
He was one of everybody's favorite teacher. Everybody loved mister Phelps, and he

776
01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:27,239
told a story one day that just
something about this story has always stuck with

777
01:10:27,359 --> 01:10:30,000
I was like in eighth grade when
I heard this story, but it's always

778
01:10:30,239 --> 01:10:31,640
I'm sorry. I was in ninth
grade. He was at public school,

779
01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:35,920
but it's always stuck with me.
For some reason, I've never forgotten this.

780
01:10:36,720 --> 01:10:41,439
He had a friend in college who
was a mountain climber, and his

781
01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:44,840
friend, the mountain climber, had
some sort of an accident where he ended

782
01:10:44,920 --> 01:10:48,640
up in a full body cast and
he was either he was in a coma

783
01:10:49,079 --> 01:10:53,600
or he was not in a coma, but it was difficult for him to

784
01:10:53,680 --> 01:10:57,640
maintain consciousness for long periods of time. So he goes to visit his friend

785
01:10:57,720 --> 01:11:04,840
in the hospital who's in this full
body cast in terrible shape, and he's

786
01:11:04,840 --> 01:11:10,039
sitting there with his friend and his
friend is sort of in and out of

787
01:11:10,079 --> 01:11:14,920
consciousness, so he knew that mister
Phelps was there. But then all of

788
01:11:15,039 --> 01:11:19,279
a sudden, out of nowhere,
his friend's eyes just pop open, like

789
01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:28,399
wide open, and he reaches over
and he grabs mister Phelps's hand and starts

790
01:11:28,399 --> 01:11:32,840
squeezing it really hard and starts grunting
at him, and mister Phelps is looking

791
01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:36,800
him in the eyes, and this
always stuck with me. It only lasted

792
01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:41,039
a few seconds, but mister Phelps
said, during those few seconds, it

793
01:11:41,079 --> 01:11:45,399
was the most terrifying moment of his
life. And he said, as he's

794
01:11:45,479 --> 01:11:49,159
looking in his friend's eyes, his
friend was not there, like somebody else

795
01:11:49,439 --> 01:11:54,439
was in there for those few seconds. And mister Phelps, he said,

796
01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:58,199
he said, look, you know, I don't really believe in any of

797
01:11:58,279 --> 01:12:03,680
that stuff, but but I've never
forgotten that because for those few seconds,

798
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:10,119
somebody else was there and it was
really frightening. And mister Phelps telling that

799
01:12:10,279 --> 01:12:14,399
story that has always stuck with me. Whenever the subject comes up, I

800
01:12:14,479 --> 01:12:17,119
think about that story and it says, weird, how that story. Mister

801
01:12:17,119 --> 01:12:19,880
Phelps sold a lot of stories.
I don't remember any of them, except

802
01:12:20,039 --> 01:12:25,359
that one has always kind of haunted
me a little bit. Does that make

803
01:12:25,439 --> 01:12:32,760
sense? Yet it does. The
reason why it does is because any story

804
01:12:33,279 --> 01:12:41,680
that has any you look at some
of the scariest or memorable tales, they

805
01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:46,479
all have a high degree of realism
about that. Oh yeah, and I

806
01:12:46,640 --> 01:12:55,439
think that that's something that we always
forget when we see when we hear spooky

807
01:12:55,560 --> 01:13:00,680
stories or scary stories or horror films
and things like that. You hear these

808
01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:11,359
things and we just we really forget
why it scares us or why it sticks

809
01:13:11,399 --> 01:13:15,119
with us. And it sticks with
us because it is so frightened, it

810
01:13:15,279 --> 01:13:20,760
is so scary, because it is
so real. And that's my belief.

811
01:13:23,279 --> 01:13:26,840
Yeah, because I can't think of
anything else in the horror genre that fits

812
01:13:26,960 --> 01:13:30,279
that other than stories about exorcism.
Right, Like I said, anything else.

813
01:13:30,399 --> 01:13:33,920
You know, zombies, you know, wear wolves, whatever, Right,

814
01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:39,479
you know that's not real. But
exorcism is the one thing. I

815
01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:42,279
mean, unless unless there is something
else I'm not thinking of. Maybe there

816
01:13:42,319 --> 01:13:45,880
is something else, I guess Aliens, but that's not really horror movie,

817
01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:49,640
that's sci fi. Well, I'm
going to disagree with you, Matt.

818
01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:57,239
Aliens is one of the top ten
horror films for me all time. Alien

819
01:13:57,359 --> 01:14:03,960
not Aliens. Alien is yeah,
yeah, just it is terrified because people

820
01:14:04,039 --> 01:14:14,239
forget. You don't see this Zin, the Xenophope, the Denomorphe until near

821
01:14:14,359 --> 01:14:18,479
the very end, and it's this
build up to the Queen Alien that makes

822
01:14:18,520 --> 01:14:26,920
it so so terrified. You know, I've never actually, you know,

823
01:14:26,960 --> 01:14:30,520
I've never actually seen that movie.
I never wanted to. Something something about

824
01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:33,560
it uh turned me off. I
don't know exactly what it was, but

825
01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:38,079
I never I've never wanted to see
that movie. Is it Tom Scarett?

826
01:14:39,039 --> 01:14:41,239
I doubt it. I don't know
what it is. I have no problem

827
01:14:41,279 --> 01:14:43,720
with Tom Scarett. I don't know
what it is about it, but something

828
01:14:43,760 --> 01:14:46,159
about it never just never appealed to
me. I can't quite explain it.

829
01:14:46,920 --> 01:14:56,520
It certainly is a different movie.
Yeah, yeah, well, what is

830
01:14:56,600 --> 01:15:03,760
that uh music? Sorry, it's
okay. Scott Robinson in the Shot Room

831
01:15:03,760 --> 01:15:08,520
says zombies can be real mad.
They can be real. Oh, they

832
01:15:08,560 --> 01:15:11,239
can be real mad. I think
he's using voice to text. I don't

833
01:15:11,239 --> 01:15:14,840
think zombies can be real. I
mean, I've I've certainly seen some people

834
01:15:14,960 --> 01:15:19,079
who uh sort of behave like zombies, but I just assume they're either on

835
01:15:19,279 --> 01:15:26,600
something or they're very tired. Yeah, I mean there are some that behave

836
01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:33,399
like zombies currently in our Senate.
That's right, that's right. Scott also

837
01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:39,399
says the Shining always gets me.
I can never finish it. It spooks

838
01:15:39,439 --> 01:15:44,720
the heck out of Shining is another
one. But my issue with The Shining

839
01:15:45,439 --> 01:15:53,479
is that it really isn't I'm always
torn on The Shining as a film.

840
01:15:54,359 --> 01:16:02,119
It's easily up there in regards to
r being a great horror film. But

841
01:16:02,479 --> 01:16:06,960
if you read the book and then
watch the movie, you're gonna get one

842
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:15,960
of two emotions that to disappointment or
you're gonna hate Stanley Kubrick really for what

843
01:16:16,119 --> 01:16:23,560
he did, because they're vastly different
the book in the movie. Stephen King

844
01:16:23,720 --> 01:16:27,520
after that was never gonna have one
of his books adapt it into a film

845
01:16:27,560 --> 01:16:35,560
again. Yes, because of the
liberties Stanley Kubrick took. Oh interesting.

846
01:16:38,119 --> 01:16:42,800
Yeah, the mini series with Stephen
Webber from the TV show Wings. It's

847
01:16:42,960 --> 01:16:48,079
truer to the novel than the movie. I've never I've never seen the TV

848
01:16:48,199 --> 01:16:50,479
series. I read the book when
I was a kid, and I've seen

849
01:16:50,520 --> 01:16:55,600
the movie. I like the movie, but that's mainly because of Jack Nicholson.

850
01:16:55,800 --> 01:17:01,159
It's just incredible. I watched.
I need the stake of watching the

851
01:17:01,239 --> 01:17:09,560
movie first and then reading the book. Yeah, and I regretted that really,

852
01:17:11,199 --> 01:17:16,880
Yeah, Scott, Yes, I
regretted that move. Scott says in

853
01:17:16,960 --> 01:17:20,520
the chat room as an avid reader
myself. If you read a book and

854
01:17:20,600 --> 01:17:25,479
then watch the movie, ninety nine
point nine percent out of one hundred,

855
01:17:25,560 --> 01:17:29,079
you will be disappointed in the movie. Well, the book usually is better.

856
01:17:29,239 --> 01:17:30,920
I mean that's just a general and
I don't just mean with Stephen King.

857
01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:33,840
I just mean in general, the
book is usually better, not always,

858
01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:39,399
but usually Yeah, yeah, but
usually. Yeah, that's fair.

859
01:17:39,520 --> 01:17:45,720
But I was saying the liberties Kubrick
took. Yeah, yeah, greatly change

860
01:17:45,319 --> 01:17:50,880
the story. I don't even remember
it's been that's unfortunate. It's been so

861
01:17:51,199 --> 01:17:57,439
long, Like I cause, yeah, of course I bring this up and

862
01:17:57,920 --> 01:18:01,920
lose the frame of reference because there
are that were done that I can reference

863
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:05,039
and be like, Okay, this
is what I'm talking about. But it's

864
01:18:05,079 --> 01:18:10,720
been so long that I can't even
But I do know there are major,

865
01:18:10,880 --> 01:18:17,239
major differences. Yeah, yeah,
are that are just crazy to think about.

866
01:18:18,800 --> 01:18:21,199
Jay fed in the chat room says, we stayed at the hotel the

867
01:18:21,279 --> 01:18:26,800
shining is based on we stayed in
a haunted room but didn't see anything.

868
01:18:27,279 --> 01:18:35,800
Hmmm, that's advertising. That's right, That's right, I do. I

869
01:18:35,840 --> 01:18:42,560
would be very upset. Yeah,
I do believe in uh in the you

870
01:18:42,640 --> 01:18:45,239
know, ghosts and stuff. I
mean, I I do believe in that

871
01:18:45,439 --> 01:18:50,279
too. I approach everything skeptically,
but I've also had some experiences that cannot

872
01:18:50,680 --> 01:18:55,279
easily be explained. I think I
I think I got into all of it

873
01:18:55,359 --> 01:18:58,399
on the show one one time,
a long time ago, and probably a

874
01:18:58,479 --> 01:19:02,560
lot of the audience thinks I'm crazy. But that's okay. We should,

875
01:19:02,640 --> 01:19:05,199
uh, we should talk about you
know, we'll we'll circle back to the

876
01:19:05,279 --> 01:19:09,479
Exorcist in a bit, because I
do want to remind people about what's what's

877
01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:13,039
coming up. But you told me
on the phone earlier about something that just

878
01:19:13,119 --> 01:19:19,920
happened in Cedar Rapids. Yeah,
we had a very unfortunate situation transpire here

879
01:19:20,039 --> 01:19:28,079
in Peter Rapids. Basically, uh, Sunday sometimes Sunday, there was an

880
01:19:28,239 --> 01:19:39,399
individual that created a TikTok video UH
used voice voice disguising and board out his

881
01:19:41,439 --> 01:19:49,920
image and basically threatened to shoot up
from school to schools in particular, and

882
01:19:50,079 --> 01:19:55,119
had a list with a picture of
a gun, had a list with a

883
01:19:55,279 --> 01:20:04,840
gun sitting beside it, and and
very bizarrely, UH, the individual said

884
01:20:08,399 --> 01:20:15,159
twice in in the TikTok video that
he was not white. He wanted to

885
01:20:15,279 --> 01:20:19,079
make that very clear that he was
not white. He was he was wouldn't

886
01:20:19,079 --> 01:20:24,680
say what race he was, but
he just kept he said twice I am

887
01:20:24,760 --> 01:20:30,640
not white, because he threatened to
shoot anyone who was of African American descent.

888
01:20:32,039 --> 01:20:40,560
My issue is school district solution to
this was cancel classes on Monday,

889
01:20:41,239 --> 01:20:45,800
but have him go to school on
Tuesday when he said he was going to

890
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:49,800
do it, so he's and Monday
nights they sent they sent an email to

891
01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:56,399
parents basically putting the bonus on the
parents to do the right thing and teach

892
01:20:56,439 --> 01:21:01,079
your kids. So he uh so
he'sly So this just to be clear.

893
01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:05,199
This individual he said in the video
that he was going to do this on

894
01:21:05,359 --> 01:21:12,319
Tuesday, but they but he posted
the video on Monday, so they canceled

895
01:21:12,359 --> 01:21:17,359
school on Monday. But then but
then he posted the video on Sunday on

896
01:21:17,520 --> 01:21:23,439
Sunday, so they canceled school on
Monday, but had school, but had

897
01:21:23,479 --> 01:21:28,960
school on Tuesday. But they emailed
the parents on Monday, YEP, to

898
01:21:29,079 --> 01:21:31,000
basically say, hey, this is
what you can do to protect your kids.

899
01:21:32,119 --> 01:21:40,399
Yeah, we're sending them to school
anyway. And and the email was

900
01:21:40,680 --> 01:21:48,119
pretty ridiculous, like just like if
you see anyone who could be construed as

901
01:21:48,600 --> 01:21:55,199
suspicious. Point out to your kid, like what these individuals look like,

902
01:21:56,399 --> 01:22:02,159
and it's like, well, no, it doesn't work like that. You

903
01:22:02,279 --> 01:22:05,680
know, Now, how does how
does TikTok deal with that? When when

904
01:22:05,760 --> 01:22:09,720
when a video like that is posted? Do they what do they do?

905
01:22:12,279 --> 01:22:16,479
I I would assume they remove it
pretty quickly. Yeah, if I had

906
01:22:16,560 --> 01:22:23,680
to guess, I do know that
the FBI is involved, which to accelerate

907
01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:29,359
getting information from TikTok, the FBI
would be would have to be involved.

908
01:22:30,119 --> 01:22:34,600
Yeah, so I do. I
do know that is going on. But

909
01:22:34,920 --> 01:22:42,199
for me, it's just disturbing that
if if the pandemics taught us anything,

910
01:22:42,880 --> 01:22:48,640
it's you can teach kids virtually if
he be to me, this is the

911
01:22:48,720 --> 01:22:56,359
perfect situation to do that. It's
we will cancel school if there's two inches

912
01:22:56,399 --> 01:23:01,079
of smell on the ground. Yes, but you know, uh, possible

913
01:23:01,159 --> 01:23:09,119
active shooter situation. We're going to
cancel the day the day after the threats

914
01:23:09,199 --> 01:23:12,319
made, but the day he actually
said he was gonna do it, And

915
01:23:12,399 --> 01:23:17,399
I'm saying he and I shouldn't because
we don't know right day he's gonna actually

916
01:23:17,479 --> 01:23:24,479
do it. Some of the kids, it's disturbing because you think in your

917
01:23:24,640 --> 01:23:31,159
head that what they're doing is really
it's like they're baiting him to try something

918
01:23:33,199 --> 01:23:35,319
in a way like, oh,
the kids you're here, Come on,

919
01:23:35,600 --> 01:23:40,479
mister whoever you are, or missus
whoever you are, right, come and

920
01:23:40,560 --> 01:23:47,760
do what you're gonna do. It's
it's kind of a it's just it's kind

921
01:23:47,800 --> 01:23:54,800
of an impossible situation though, because
anybody at any time can make a video

922
01:23:55,000 --> 01:23:59,960
making a threat. They may or
may not be serious, and you're you're

923
01:24:00,159 --> 01:24:03,119
kind of at their mercy, right, especially in the social media era where

924
01:24:04,439 --> 01:24:08,840
because you know, I mean anybody, anybody can make a threat like that,

925
01:24:09,119 --> 01:24:13,600
and and what do you do.
I mean, if you if you

926
01:24:15,319 --> 01:24:17,680
call off school, people are gonna
have a problem with that, well,

927
01:24:17,840 --> 01:24:21,720
you know, because you're you're reacting
to every little threat. But at the

928
01:24:21,760 --> 01:24:26,199
same time, what if what if
the threat turns out to be legitimate and

929
01:24:26,279 --> 01:24:30,520
they really are going to do something
and you've sent the kids to school anyway?

930
01:24:30,560 --> 01:24:33,119
I mean, it's really kind of
a no win situation. I and

931
01:24:33,279 --> 01:24:40,760
I get that, but I think
I think to send them on the day

932
01:24:41,560 --> 01:24:45,119
the person said they were going to
do it. Yeah, that's weird.

933
01:24:45,560 --> 01:24:54,399
Yeah, that that is just completely
insane to me. Yeah. Yeah,

934
01:24:55,319 --> 01:25:00,199
it just really bothers me that,
you know, we approve it. What

935
01:25:00,399 --> 01:25:05,520
you can do virtually, it's been
proven. Why wouldn't we do this?

936
01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:13,479
Although in terms of that, I
mean there are during the pandemic when when

937
01:25:14,079 --> 01:25:17,720
the school districts were doing that.
It went well, some places not so

938
01:25:17,920 --> 01:25:25,399
well others. I mean, results
will vary. It went it went well,

939
01:25:25,840 --> 01:25:29,439
and see the rapids, now I
don't. I mean, keep in

940
01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:34,319
mind there was the ability to do
a full roll out and put back up

941
01:25:34,399 --> 01:25:40,760
planes in place and whatever. Yeah, but in this situation, it's like,

942
01:25:40,840 --> 01:25:45,239
oh, we're all zoom tomorrow.
I get that. But it's like

943
01:25:45,720 --> 01:25:53,399
the saving grace of this email was
we have lockdown procedures. So the procedure

944
01:25:53,560 --> 01:25:57,680
is, wack o person comes into
a school to shoot it up, We're

945
01:25:57,760 --> 01:26:03,920
going to lock all the doors and
trap them in the school with this individual.

946
01:26:05,359 --> 01:26:12,760
Yeah yeah, do uh do schools
there have an officer on uh on

947
01:26:12,960 --> 01:26:18,800
campus? Some do? Yeah,
some do? And I guess you bring

948
01:26:18,920 --> 01:26:21,640
up a very good point, Matt. One of the schools that was targeted

949
01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:30,039
does have an office there on duty. Yeah, I mean I think they

950
01:26:30,079 --> 01:26:33,680
all should, but uh, yeah, that's so they haven't they haven't found

951
01:26:33,720 --> 01:26:38,479
the person who posted the video,
I assume no, Okay no. And

952
01:26:38,640 --> 01:26:44,600
the thing is is the person it's
suspected is a minor, so there might

953
01:26:44,720 --> 01:26:48,199
not be a lot of details when
they do find out. I mean,

954
01:26:48,279 --> 01:26:57,960
YESBI is involved, so they will
find out, right. Interesting, Well,

955
01:26:58,359 --> 01:27:01,840
I'm glad that I'm glad that it
hasn't uh, that shooting hasn't come

956
01:27:01,920 --> 01:27:06,000
to fruition. That's good. Yeah, I think I think it's I do

957
01:27:06,159 --> 01:27:10,279
think that it's odd that they would
send the kids to school on the day

958
01:27:10,399 --> 01:27:16,199
that the the shooting was supposed to
happen according to this video. But but

959
01:27:16,319 --> 01:27:19,399
it is. But but I do
have some sympathy though for the school district

960
01:27:19,439 --> 01:27:21,880
too. It's like, because,
I mean, we're in an era where

961
01:27:21,920 --> 01:27:25,960
anybody at any time could post anything, any kind of a threat, and

962
01:27:26,039 --> 01:27:28,800
you don't want to be you don't
want to be at the whim or the

963
01:27:28,920 --> 01:27:33,640
mercy of of just people who want
to make trouble or people who actually want

964
01:27:33,720 --> 01:27:39,800
to kill somebody. You know.
It's it's that's that's really tricky, I

965
01:27:39,960 --> 01:27:44,640
think, and I get that it
makes a lot of sense. Keep in

966
01:27:44,760 --> 01:27:48,960
mind, I live in Cedar Rapids
till my heart is really kind of hardened

967
01:27:49,279 --> 01:27:57,600
on sympathy towards the Cedar Rapids Community
School. Right, They've done a lot

968
01:27:57,680 --> 01:28:02,119
over the years where I'm just like, really, you know that type deal.

969
01:28:02,399 --> 01:28:06,319
Sure, but it's good you have
it. You can carry that torch

970
01:28:06,439 --> 01:28:12,600
for both of us. There you
go, there you go. Oh we

971
01:28:12,680 --> 01:28:15,720
should too. The time goes so
quick. We should talk about the big

972
01:28:15,840 --> 01:28:23,199
news this week and the speaker,
the speaker, why has been vacated?

973
01:28:25,000 --> 01:28:39,239
And I guess my point of view
wanting is I don't like Matt Gates is

974
01:28:39,479 --> 01:28:43,960
the world's biggest idiot in my opinion, And I have no problem saying that

975
01:28:45,640 --> 01:28:54,279
Kevin McCarthy did what he felt was
best to avoid a government shutdown. When

976
01:28:54,359 --> 01:28:59,000
we are faced with the shutdown,
my opinion is this, we have to

977
01:28:59,079 --> 01:29:01,960
be by part of it. We
have to work together to avoid this.

978
01:29:02,920 --> 01:29:08,159
We can't sit here and say,
oh, well, don't don't accept this

979
01:29:08,359 --> 01:29:11,920
deal because it has this in it. You know, we have to find

980
01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:15,359
some common ground for the good of
the American people. So to sit there

981
01:29:16,439 --> 01:29:21,680
and out Kevin McCarthy. And I'm
not a Kevin McCarthy defender in any stretch

982
01:29:21,720 --> 01:29:28,439
of the imagination. Yeah, I
mean I would say, under normal circumstances,

983
01:29:30,560 --> 01:29:33,640
do you awesome get rid of him? Guy's an imbecile. Good work,

984
01:29:35,239 --> 01:29:43,039
But like in this situation, he
did what was right for the people

985
01:29:43,119 --> 01:29:54,199
of this country and you and Matt
Gates is counting a personal vendetta to get

986
01:29:54,279 --> 01:30:03,079
what he wanted. So I think
it's I think I've always said this on

987
01:30:03,199 --> 01:30:08,279
your show. We as the American
people, should not be used as paused

988
01:30:08,319 --> 01:30:14,680
in a game of chats, right, and neat Gates used us as pawned

989
01:30:14,920 --> 01:30:19,479
in a game of chats. He
got the checkmates work, but that can't

990
01:30:19,520 --> 01:30:28,760
be ignored. Yeah, my biggest
concern is that this really plunges us into

991
01:30:28,800 --> 01:30:31,520
some chaos that is very bad for
the country. I mean, it's like

992
01:30:31,880 --> 01:30:34,720
I've been saying on the show.
You know, I think as a political

993
01:30:34,800 --> 01:30:40,039
junkie, it's fascinating to watch all
of this happening, but it's very bad

994
01:30:40,159 --> 01:30:44,399
for the country. You know,
We've only got I think forty two days

995
01:30:44,479 --> 01:30:47,520
now until this continuing resolution is up. I don't know what they're going to

996
01:30:47,600 --> 01:30:53,600
do. The House is effectively paralyzed
until they find a new speaker. I

997
01:30:53,640 --> 01:30:57,359
don't know who can get to too
many arguments about that on who should be

998
01:30:57,439 --> 01:31:02,000
the speaker. Yeah, yeah,
let's put that at the crust of this

999
01:31:02,279 --> 01:31:10,239
here if we can that no one's
that there's arguments on that. So I'm

1000
01:31:10,279 --> 01:31:14,640
not going to sit here and act
like that everything kunky dory. Now that

1001
01:31:16,079 --> 01:31:25,880
now that uh, now that uh
McCarthy's gone, as some conservatives are that

1002
01:31:26,359 --> 01:31:34,760
just once again have this have this
major league messiah complex with anyone that's a

1003
01:31:34,840 --> 01:31:42,000
Republican, and we we've got to
get away from that because there are some

1004
01:31:42,199 --> 01:31:48,479
Republicans that are very dangerous for this
country. Yeah, and Matt Gates is

1005
01:31:48,600 --> 01:31:55,920
one of them. Mm hmm,
yep. Absolutely, I have no qualms

1006
01:31:56,000 --> 01:31:59,800
saying that. No, no,
And and by the way, I'm sure

1007
01:31:59,880 --> 01:32:03,000
my most House Republicans feel the same
way. Matt Gates is probably the most

1008
01:32:03,159 --> 01:32:10,920
despised individual in the United States House
of Representatives right now by by his own

1009
01:32:11,800 --> 01:32:14,800
by his own party, you know, aside from, of course, the

1010
01:32:14,880 --> 01:32:19,000
other seven who voted with him.
I'm sure the rest of him despise Matt

1011
01:32:19,039 --> 01:32:24,520
Gates. Uh. And I'm sure
probably all I would like to know the

1012
01:32:24,640 --> 01:32:29,760
reason why they sided with him.
Oh, I think I think there's that

1013
01:32:29,960 --> 01:32:33,079
contingent that just uh, they're not
They're not in it for the good of

1014
01:32:33,159 --> 01:32:38,039
the country or even for the good
of their party. Uh, they're they're

1015
01:32:38,119 --> 01:32:40,880
in it for the fame. You
know, Matt Gates is in it for

1016
01:32:40,960 --> 01:32:44,720
the fame. He that that guy's
clearly. Look I'm not qualified to diagnose

1017
01:32:44,800 --> 01:32:46,640
him, and certainly not from a
distance, but I'm pretty sure he's associopath.

1018
01:32:47,520 --> 01:32:50,640
And uh, he's in it for
the fame and then the notoriety and

1019
01:32:50,720 --> 01:32:55,279
the glory, and he wants to
I mean, he's a he's a city.

1020
01:32:55,319 --> 01:32:58,079
We're talking about a guy who is
a sitting member of the House of

1021
01:32:58,159 --> 01:33:03,640
Representatives who also sometimes I's guest hosts
a show on Newsmax. I've never seen

1022
01:33:03,680 --> 01:33:08,680
that before where a sitting member of
the House actually not not as a guest,

1023
01:33:08,760 --> 01:33:14,079
but will actually go and host a
show on Actually I'm wrong, Bob

1024
01:33:14,159 --> 01:33:16,479
Dornan used to do it. I
forgot about Bob Dornan, but that goes

1025
01:33:16,600 --> 01:33:21,079
that goes back a couple decades.
But anyway, give us time, we

1026
01:33:21,239 --> 01:33:27,119
might have a president that ends up
doing it. Well yeah, yeah,

1027
01:33:27,399 --> 01:33:32,560
uh we may very well. I
actually was hoping, and I understand why

1028
01:33:32,680 --> 01:33:39,720
they didn't you actually still have hope
right now, I do, hanging by

1029
01:33:39,760 --> 01:33:44,640
a thread. But I well,
I actually was hoping that the Democrats would

1030
01:33:44,680 --> 01:33:49,600
save McCarthy. I understand why they
didn't. I understand all the reasons why

1031
01:33:49,640 --> 01:33:55,800
they felt no obligation to help,
but honestly, just putting politics aside and

1032
01:33:55,960 --> 01:34:00,279
just looking at it pragmatically, I
wish they had. I understand why they

1033
01:34:00,319 --> 01:34:04,960
don't trust him, and they're right. There's not a single reason the Democrats

1034
01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:10,079
could give for not doing it that
I can argue with directly on the merits,

1035
01:34:10,560 --> 01:34:14,880
except for in a broader sense to
say, for the good of the

1036
01:34:15,000 --> 01:34:19,359
country, I wish they had saved
him, because now we're and I don't

1037
01:34:19,359 --> 01:34:25,840
mean to be alarmist, but now
we're in real trouble here. They can

1038
01:34:25,960 --> 01:34:29,680
say, well, it's a Republican
problem and we're not under any obligation to

1039
01:34:29,800 --> 01:34:35,119
help. And I get it.
I understand that impulse. And you know,

1040
01:34:35,239 --> 01:34:41,039
I have no I have no love
for McCarthy myself, certainly I have

1041
01:34:41,159 --> 01:34:45,239
an enormous criticize but but for the
good of for you know, looking at

1042
01:34:45,279 --> 01:34:49,159
it, looking at the bigger picture, pragmatically, for the country. You

1043
01:34:49,279 --> 01:34:53,560
know, they don't like him,
of course, and they don't trust him.

1044
01:34:53,600 --> 01:34:58,199
But it's the devil. And this
this kind of brings it full circle

1045
01:34:58,239 --> 01:35:03,720
because we're talking about the exorcistter it's
the devil. You know that they should

1046
01:35:03,760 --> 01:35:10,159
have saved the devil. They knew. Let's be real here, I couldn't.

1047
01:35:10,319 --> 01:35:14,119
I might be wrong in my belief, but it's my belief. Kevin

1048
01:35:14,239 --> 01:35:23,239
McCarthy is too stupid to be shrewd. He isn't like like his own stupidity

1049
01:35:23,359 --> 01:35:29,560
and gullibility put him in this.
In my opinion, he forgot he was

1050
01:35:29,600 --> 01:35:40,760
a politician and got just steamrolled.
He he is like it. Kevin McCarthy

1051
01:35:41,880 --> 01:35:49,199
is the opposite of House of Cards
in Frank Underwood. Like. That's the

1052
01:35:49,359 --> 01:35:56,039
thing is, Matt Gates did a
power play on little Jimmy, who was

1053
01:35:56,119 --> 01:36:02,000
held back in third grade twice because
he can't spell cat. Hmmm. It's

1054
01:36:02,039 --> 01:36:06,680
interesting. See I'm a different I'm
a different perspective on uh on McCarthy,

1055
01:36:08,159 --> 01:36:13,880
which is kind of funny because,
uh, you you would think just just

1056
01:36:14,000 --> 01:36:25,359
because what was that? Oh sorry, there's when I'm outside right now.

1057
01:36:25,479 --> 01:36:34,159
I apologize, that's okay. Just
making sure, yeah, just making sure

1058
01:36:34,199 --> 01:36:40,119
you were in swept it's been a
beautiful day just until I stepped outside.

1059
01:36:40,319 --> 01:36:44,119
Oh that's funny, Okay, No, I I I think that. Uh.

1060
01:36:44,319 --> 01:36:49,479
I think McCarthy, look he he
actually believe it or not as much

1061
01:36:49,560 --> 01:36:55,520
as there are many things about him
that I find absolutely despicable. But I

1062
01:36:55,760 --> 01:37:00,439
also he did win a little bit
of grudging respect for me from me when,

1063
01:37:00,239 --> 01:37:03,600
for example, I really thought we
were going to hit the debt ceiling

1064
01:37:03,680 --> 01:37:06,880
and go over the fiscal cliff and
that Biden was going to have to attempt

1065
01:37:08,359 --> 01:37:12,079
to invoke the fourteenth Amendment, and
McCarthy said, all along, we'll get

1066
01:37:12,079 --> 01:37:14,000
it done. We'll get it done. We'll get it done. And it

1067
01:37:14,159 --> 01:37:16,560
was. It was right at the
wire, but he came through. And

1068
01:37:16,720 --> 01:37:19,840
same with this government shutdown. I
didn't think he'd be able to avoid it,

1069
01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:24,039
and he figured it out and he
made it work and he avoided it.

1070
01:37:24,680 --> 01:37:29,880
So I don't think he's I don't
think he's stupid, but I think

1071
01:37:29,920 --> 01:37:34,000
he may have been stupid. Is
too strong of a statement. Yeah,

1072
01:37:34,159 --> 01:37:42,119
I think he. I think he
was so gullible he trusted his party too

1073
01:37:42,279 --> 01:37:47,720
much to have his back. I'm
that cost. I'm with you. I

1074
01:37:47,800 --> 01:37:58,159
will give him credit for putting these
people ahead of party politics. That is

1075
01:37:58,239 --> 01:38:01,479
something that this country to do a
lot more of. Yes, yes,

1076
01:38:03,159 --> 01:38:09,600
And that's what the Speaker of the
House should do. Yeah, we sit

1077
01:38:09,720 --> 01:38:14,560
here in the we say well,
no, no, no, no.

1078
01:38:14,680 --> 01:38:15,960
The Speaker of the House should be
The Speaker of the House should be that

1079
01:38:16,560 --> 01:38:25,079
No, the Speaker of the House
should put the country first, unequivocally.

1080
01:38:26,800 --> 01:38:31,439
And that's what he's done in those
two occasions. And Matt Gates just showed

1081
01:38:32,399 --> 01:38:36,359
what And I love the word sociopath
he used to describe him, because it

1082
01:38:36,439 --> 01:38:48,600
is sociopathy. Yeah, that he
puts his own need for attention ahead of

1083
01:38:49,840 --> 01:38:58,399
the American people need you. The
listeners like that can't be ignored. And

1084
01:38:58,640 --> 01:39:03,159
I know there are some conservatives that
are sitting there cheering like this is a

1085
01:39:03,319 --> 01:39:09,439
football game, Like, oh,
Matt Gates stuck it to him, Good

1086
01:39:09,560 --> 01:39:15,760
job, Gates. Really really,
do you see the chaos that this is

1087
01:39:15,840 --> 01:39:20,279
going to cause? Yeah, but
in the end, we showed them you're

1088
01:39:20,319 --> 01:39:28,720
either with us or against us.
Trump twenty twenty four, whoa nute Gingrich

1089
01:39:28,840 --> 01:39:30,439
is saying and I and I was
saying the other day on the show,

1090
01:39:30,479 --> 01:39:33,680
how it's it's a rare moment that
I would agree with Nute Gingrich, but

1091
01:39:34,119 --> 01:39:38,520
Gingrich is saying that they should figure
out a way to expel Matt Gates from

1092
01:39:38,560 --> 01:39:42,279
the conference. Uh, because he
can't, you know, he can't just

1093
01:39:42,359 --> 01:39:45,680
be allowed to get away with this. I'd sign off on it. Yeah,

1094
01:39:46,439 --> 01:39:55,319
I'm sign up on it multiple times. Yeah, yeah, anytime.

1095
01:39:56,520 --> 01:40:00,439
To me, Look, there are
things you can do and and me,

1096
01:40:00,720 --> 01:40:06,359
as a quasi political pundit, will
say, you know, that was scummy,

1097
01:40:06,439 --> 01:40:16,399
but you're forgiven using the American people
as pawns. No, that's unforgivable.

1098
01:40:16,640 --> 01:40:23,760
Yeah, I agree, And that
is the one thing that I look

1099
01:40:23,840 --> 01:40:29,479
at and I'm like, you know
what, Matt Gates, congratulations, you

1100
01:40:30,039 --> 01:40:35,720
are a piece of garbage human being. Yeah. Well, it's funny.

1101
01:40:35,760 --> 01:40:41,840
I saw Jake Tapper was interviewing him
the other day on I think it was

1102
01:40:41,880 --> 01:40:45,680
on one of the Sunday shows,
and I thought Jake Tapper went a little

1103
01:40:45,720 --> 01:40:49,600
bit overboard with what he did.
But he's kind of confronted Matt Gates and

1104
01:40:49,680 --> 01:40:54,279
said, you know, I think
you're just in this for clicks and likes

1105
01:40:55,199 --> 01:41:02,239
and social media engagement, not governing. And you know, but but Gates,

1106
01:41:02,439 --> 01:41:06,039
he doesn't The criticism doesn't seem to
bother him. I think he thrives

1107
01:41:06,079 --> 01:41:09,960
on it. I think he just
loves being on TV, and I think

1108
01:41:10,000 --> 01:41:15,000
he I think show he uses it
like Trump does. Yeah, oh,

1109
01:41:15,119 --> 01:41:19,680
definitely, he uses it like Trump
does. It is martyrdom. And he

1110
01:41:19,880 --> 01:41:25,560
can then turn around and say,
oh, he's targeting me. They're targeting

1111
01:41:25,720 --> 01:41:32,119
me because they because I'm protecting him
from you. Yeah, I know.

1112
01:41:33,039 --> 01:41:39,479
I'm sorry. That's exactly what he's
what he does and what he will continue

1113
01:41:39,680 --> 01:41:47,840
to do. Yeah. Uh,
yeah, it's frustrating. It's it's it's

1114
01:41:48,359 --> 01:41:58,760
disturbing that all these sociopathic conservatives do
this and people rally to them when they

1115
01:41:58,880 --> 01:42:00,840
do it. Well, like I
said, I mean, there are a

1116
01:42:00,920 --> 01:42:06,119
lot of there are a lot of
reasonable and uh and even a few although

1117
01:42:06,119 --> 01:42:09,760
I think most of the moderate moderate
Republicans you tend to see more in the

1118
01:42:09,840 --> 01:42:13,640
Senate. But but I think there's
there's more reasonable, shall we say,

1119
01:42:13,800 --> 01:42:17,520
and more establishment Republicans in the House
who, like I said, I mean,

1120
01:42:17,520 --> 01:42:21,640
I'm sure Matt Gates's public enemy number
one to them right now. You

1121
01:42:21,680 --> 01:42:26,119
know, they know he's gonna he's
gonna cost them. He's definitely going to

1122
01:42:26,199 --> 01:42:29,079
cost Republicans the House in twenty twenty
four. I have no doubt about that,

1123
01:42:29,359 --> 01:42:31,359
because he's made them look like they
can't govern. And I'm sure they

1124
01:42:31,359 --> 01:42:35,039
would love for him to go away. And and these these other enablers too,

1125
01:42:35,159 --> 01:42:41,319
I'm sure you know, like like
Lauren Groepert and as I like to

1126
01:42:41,399 --> 01:42:44,039
call her, and some of these
other clowns. I'm sure they would love

1127
01:42:44,119 --> 01:42:48,439
for them to go away. If
she if she keeps that campaign promise that

1128
01:42:48,600 --> 01:42:54,800
you posted in the after show group, she got my vote, right,

1129
01:42:56,479 --> 01:43:01,159
Lauren's twenty twenty four, twenty twenty
eight. You've got Eric Tilcher's backing,

1130
01:43:01,319 --> 01:43:04,840
let's go. You're gonna go all
the way to Colorado just for that.

1131
01:43:08,640 --> 01:43:13,800
Maybe, if that's how, if
that's what she's gonna do for her supporters,

1132
01:43:13,840 --> 01:43:17,399
I'll carry her to the White House. Maybe she'll maybe, maybe,

1133
01:43:17,560 --> 01:43:23,720
maybe she'll take you to see Beetlejuice
with her. I'm not a Beetlejuice fan,

1134
01:43:23,800 --> 01:43:27,720
but she can pick the movies.
Sure, sure, I'm a gentleman.

1135
01:43:28,000 --> 01:43:32,399
I'll pay very good, very good, Eric, we are we are

1136
01:43:32,399 --> 01:43:42,600
almost Lauren, Well there from what
I from what I've from what I've read

1137
01:43:42,640 --> 01:43:45,800
about her in a previous career.
Uh, well, we won't go any

1138
01:43:45,800 --> 01:43:48,960
further with that. That's for the
US for Matt Connorton unsheathed. Uh.

1139
01:43:49,439 --> 01:43:53,079
But what I was about to say, I thought I was keeping it very

1140
01:43:53,199 --> 01:43:57,840
delicate what I'm saying. But what
well, what I was about to say

1141
01:43:57,840 --> 01:44:00,880
about the previous career though, isn't
making a joke that I have read that

1142
01:44:00,920 --> 01:44:05,760
about her? Anyway? But before
I jo I know, I know now

1143
01:44:05,960 --> 01:44:10,880
before we uh, before we go, Eric, we should remind people about

1144
01:44:11,119 --> 01:44:14,520
your film review and of course got
the Exorcists coming up and all that,

1145
01:44:14,680 --> 01:44:18,000
So I'll give the floor to you
for that. Yes, this Friday,

1146
01:44:18,199 --> 01:44:24,680
we will you will have the review
of the Exorcist. We're going to keep

1147
01:44:24,760 --> 01:44:29,239
with the same formula we've been doing. We're going to have some clips from

1148
01:44:29,840 --> 01:44:33,800
interviews that have been done with the
late William Freakin where he's talking about making

1149
01:44:34,039 --> 01:44:40,279
the Exorcist and everything like that.
I mean, because the big thing is

1150
01:44:40,560 --> 01:44:47,000
is the clips that you would want
to show you really can't Yeah, any

1151
01:44:47,199 --> 01:44:56,920
form of of any form of broadcast
media that's done for PU that's done to

1152
01:44:57,000 --> 01:45:04,279
the wide public about ely editing it. So but no, it's I'm really

1153
01:45:04,560 --> 01:45:11,479
really excited for this review it's a
it's a big personal deal to mean to

1154
01:45:11,560 --> 01:45:15,039
be able to review this, Matt, and you know why. Yep,

1155
01:45:16,640 --> 01:45:24,399
I'm really excited. And I'm also
excited to do the Exorcist Retrospective podcast as

1156
01:45:24,439 --> 01:45:30,000
well. Yeah, if you go
to I'm very excited for that. Yeah,

1157
01:45:30,159 --> 01:45:32,720
and I would just tell listeners too. Right now, if you go

1158
01:45:32,800 --> 01:45:39,640
to Matt connorton dot com slash Exorcist, you can see the graphic about that,

1159
01:45:39,880 --> 01:45:42,199
and that's gonna be really cool.
I'm looking forward to that here,

1160
01:45:42,319 --> 01:45:45,600
looking forward to hearing that. That
is. I've been talking with the two

1161
01:45:45,680 --> 01:45:48,119
guys who are going to join me. One of my best friends, Luke

1162
01:45:48,319 --> 01:45:53,560
cag Biden, is going to join
me in Brandon Bush, a guy that

1163
01:45:53,840 --> 01:45:59,880
loves film, loves cinema, loves
whrror, And tomorrow night we're seeing Exorcist

1164
01:46:00,159 --> 01:46:06,840
Believer and that will include our thoughts
on that film as well. Oh yes,

1165
01:46:08,079 --> 01:46:12,880
so the tickets were actually bought today. Uh, it's going to be

1166
01:46:13,720 --> 01:46:18,239
I'm excited to see it. Usually
sequels, I'm indifferent, but I've seen

1167
01:46:18,319 --> 01:46:24,600
the trailer multiple times and I'm very
excited for this. I really think it

1168
01:46:24,880 --> 01:46:29,479
We're finally going to get an Exorcist
sequel that does the original justice. Oh

1169
01:46:29,680 --> 01:46:31,000
very cool. By the way,
I don't know if this is true,

1170
01:46:31,039 --> 01:46:36,479
but I just read online that the
demon is Uh is Uh being played by

1171
01:46:36,560 --> 01:46:46,159
Matt Gates. I'm already petrified.
I'm already scared going into it. I

1172
01:46:46,239 --> 01:46:51,840
might have to sleep with the lights
on tomorrow nighting. That's right, all

1173
01:46:51,920 --> 01:46:55,159
right, Eric, Well, we
gotta we gotta wrap up, my friend.

1174
01:46:55,279 --> 01:46:58,560
But I always enjoy getting to talk
to my favorite conservative as we do

1175
01:46:58,640 --> 01:47:01,920
on Wednesdays. Yes, go ahead, I enjoy it as well. Man.

1176
01:47:02,439 --> 01:47:09,279
It's great to have these discussions because
