1
00:00:47.240 --> 00:00:50.880
All right, good morning everybody.
It is it's so eight year on the

2
00:00:51.280 --> 00:00:56.359
case O Day Radio program, Happy
Monday. What a day on Friday after

3
00:00:56.439 --> 00:01:02.560
we left the building. Holy cowt
Sitting there you're trying to shift into you

4
00:01:02.600 --> 00:01:07.519
know, because it's kind of weird
the way our schedule works in that.

5
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:11.920
Yeah, we I mean, we
work work five days a week, but

6
00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:15.480
obviously you work outside of that because
that's just the reality of things. But

7
00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:22.879
really when it comes to Fridays and
Sundays, they're a little different, just

8
00:01:22.959 --> 00:01:27.040
because our work day is really kind
of encompassed in the latter half of one

9
00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:32.120
day in the first half of another
because you've got a prep like you know,

10
00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:37.079
yesterday on Sunday, sitting down in
the afternoon, start going through the

11
00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:41.120
stories, putting stuff together. Hopefully
throughout the course of the weekend you're seeing

12
00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:42.879
some stuff, so it makes it
a little a little quicker, a little

13
00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:49.760
easier. And then on Monday,
obviously get up and to do the show.

14
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:53.719
But on Friday, you get done
with the show. You do you

15
00:01:53.719 --> 00:01:57.519
know, commercials, promos, production, any of any of the side stuff

16
00:01:57.519 --> 00:01:59.599
that we do, which is,
believe it or not, we actually do

17
00:01:59.599 --> 00:02:02.000
do that stuff. It's not just
three hours a day. But then by

18
00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:07.719
Friday, you know Friday, by
you know, by you getting into the

19
00:02:07.760 --> 00:02:12.800
afternoon and evening, you're off,
it's your weekend already. So and it

20
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:16.599
has its ups and downs. It's
nice if you're wanting to travel right,

21
00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:21.680
especially like if you want to beat
the crowd, like maybe if you're headed

22
00:02:21.759 --> 00:02:24.759
down to the beach or whatever,
you want to leave Raleigh and you work

23
00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:29.759
morning radio. I don't a Friday, you don't have to make as many

24
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:32.439
changes as a lot of people do. Just if you plan right, you

25
00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:37.639
be up out the door. So
when stuff happens on Friday afternoon, which

26
00:02:37.719 --> 00:02:40.879
can tend to be a dump day, sometimes, you know, you get

27
00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:45.159
these like four o'clock White House things, were like, oh yeah, just

28
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:51.879
a little memo here, and then
it's something that's crazy, and you wonder,

29
00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:54.199
well, is that about hiding it
from the news cycle. So I

30
00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:58.280
don't think that's what happened Friday.
I think that was just the court doing

31
00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:01.400
what the court does, since the
Supreme Court of North Carolina is not like

32
00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:05.599
the US Supreme Court, where they
tend to do these Monday decisions so they

33
00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:09.520
can get chewed on and analyzed and
reported on throughout the rest of the week,

34
00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:17.400
but a whole pile of news,
basically multiple lawsuits, lawsuits in some

35
00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:28.919
cases that had been revisited that made
their way to a review, a judicial

36
00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:32.840
review. And remember we're dealing with
some of these lawsuits. Where As we

37
00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:38.560
sat there and we looked at the
decisions that were being made, even quote

38
00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:42.639
unquote I would say quote unquote independent
or at the at the very least fairer

39
00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:47.800
reviewers realized that they were just making
stuff up, man, and they were

40
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:53.759
fast tracking cases and it was all
about getting in under the gun before the

41
00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:58.039
Democrats knew that they were going to
lose control of the North Carolina Supreme Court,

42
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:00.280
control that they had achieved, in
my opinion, in a lot of

43
00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:12.879
people's opinion, through some very interesting
candidates a couple cycles ago that tended to

44
00:04:12.919 --> 00:04:18.879
split the GOP vote. I'll I'll
let you dig into that a little more

45
00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:25.240
if you want. But upon review, they reviewed these cases and restored the

46
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:30.279
state's voter id law, took state
courts out of the partisan jerrymandering disputes,

47
00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:35.439
basically saying that there is no law
like it or not as it pertains to

48
00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:46.000
jerrymandering from a partisan perspective, which
is which is the case North Carolinas somehow

49
00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:49.639
found that all of a sudden it
wasn't the case, and they took these

50
00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:54.439
maps when if you look at them, compared to literally anything over one hundred

51
00:04:54.439 --> 00:05:00.480
and ten years, Democrats are running
things, including maps that were voted on

52
00:05:00.680 --> 00:05:04.720
by our own governor during his time
as a legislator. Uh, there was

53
00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:11.720
no comparison in in terms of compactness, which is an actual legal term that

54
00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:19.519
is utilized in determining. UM.
You know, whether whether a district is

55
00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:25.480
is it is the it is the
gold standard of what you're supposed to achieve.

56
00:05:26.439 --> 00:05:29.920
All right, you want to you
want to equally distribute the number of

57
00:05:29.920 --> 00:05:31.600
people. You want to go for
compactness, and you also want to strive

58
00:05:31.720 --> 00:05:38.920
for um, some sort of community
investment in the sense that parts of the

59
00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:42.959
district to the extent that they can
be shared the same needs, wants and

60
00:05:43.040 --> 00:05:47.720
representative needs. Those are those are
what you're striving for. On the jerrymandering

61
00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:56.439
and the partisan jerrymandering side, that's
not something that's addressed. UM, I

62
00:05:56.519 --> 00:06:00.759
think it was. Phil Berger pointed
out that when he first entered the Senate,

63
00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:05.279
is the burger I think it was
burger you know what it escapes.

64
00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:12.079
One of the Republican legislators pointed out
that they when they first entered the legislature

65
00:06:12.519 --> 00:06:15.839
the North Carolina Senate, in the
very same year that Bush won by thirteen

66
00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:25.000
points in North Carolina, there were
two thirds of the Senate was Democrats and

67
00:06:25.120 --> 00:06:33.040
one third Republican. So the Republican
president wins by thirteen points, which I

68
00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:38.360
don't know that we'll ever see that
again one way, either one way or

69
00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:46.600
the other. And yet two thirds
of the Senate was in fact Democrats in

70
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:49.680
that And how do you achieve that? Well, you're talking about state Senate

71
00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:56.319
districts. Now, could you make
an argument that with how close the presidential

72
00:06:56.319 --> 00:07:06.959
election was last time, that North
Carolina with veto proof majorities isn't exactly represented.

73
00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:11.680
Yeah, you could make that,
but that's not the standard. But

74
00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:15.079
if you want to claim that it's
the standard, then you need to recognize

75
00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:19.800
the disparity, which was much more
aggressive back in the day. So,

76
00:07:19.839 --> 00:07:23.360
if anything, they've worked to close
that. Now, if you want to

77
00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:28.160
argue community interests, what you see
and what Democrats have done in many instances,

78
00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:32.519
if they sliced and diced, arguably
community interests. You know, if

79
00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:39.439
you take if you take one city
and you try to make the totality of

80
00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:44.519
that city one district, say one
congressional district, you can't argue that as

81
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:48.959
a city that the interest of that
city aren't most closely aligned. But as

82
00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:53.240
soon as you turn it into a
stack of pancakes, like they did with

83
00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:59.120
Chicago and Baltimore and every and Detroit. This is really what happened in Michigan.

84
00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:03.319
They took these districts and they pancaked
him. So you take a big

85
00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:07.319
slice of population out of the city, knowing that it's going to generally be

86
00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:15.240
a locked in Democratic vote, and
then you build a long arm with it.

87
00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:18.720
And then once you do that,
you find yourself with, you know,

88
00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:22.959
four or five slices out of this
major metro. Yet the metro still

89
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:26.120
drives it. In some cases,
like in the state of Illinois, they

90
00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:31.639
have districts of Chicago that that loop
all the way down towards Evingston. And

91
00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:35.720
I'm sorry, if you've ever been
in Illinois for five minutes or excuse me,

92
00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:41.639
Evingston, Peoria, if you've ever
been into Illinois for five minutes,

93
00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:46.639
you would recognize that what is referred
to as Chicago Land, that great area

94
00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:52.480
and basically the rest of the state
really don't share a lot of common interests.

95
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:58.840
It turns very rule, it turns
very red, and while the red

96
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:07.399
does not in any way outmatch the
blue there, ultimately it's easier to chew

97
00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:15.080
up. So if a case was
decided based on this new standard of partisan

98
00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:22.440
gerrymandering, which doesn't exist, then
it doesn't mean that you still can't have

99
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:26.120
problems with what's going on, but
you can't make up a new legal,

100
00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:33.440
new legal language on which to not
just file but be victorious in a lawsuit.

101
00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:37.559
Because you feel like it, you
got to go after it, and

102
00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:41.720
arguably the most efficient way to go
after it is to go out and campaign,

103
00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:46.600
win the legislature, maintain you know, maybe do it this time around

104
00:09:46.600 --> 00:09:50.240
while the governor's still there, or
get a you know, get Josh Stein

105
00:09:50.360 --> 00:09:56.159
or whoever you put in there,
and fundamentally change the system which is legal,

106
00:09:58.279 --> 00:10:01.480
change it to change it. A
quote unquote nonpartisan board love to see

107
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:05.399
you try, considering that even in
places where they say they've done it,

108
00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:09.720
it's become abundantly clear that they have. At Denver is a good example.

109
00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:15.200
Colorado did this too. They sliced
up the Denver Metro and they have they

110
00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:18.840
have one of those nonpartisan boards.
So that was ruling one and two.

111
00:10:18.960 --> 00:10:26.039
Also, they ended voting for felons
who have not completed their sentence, so

112
00:10:26.440 --> 00:10:33.399
in each ruling five to two party
lines split. As expected, that happened,

113
00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:37.279
but something much more interesting happened.
And frankly, if they're able to

114
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:41.519
get this thing off the ground,
and there's not some hidden thing that I'm

115
00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:46.080
missing here, it is probably going
to be one of the biggest political fights.

116
00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:50.159
Even though it looks like they have
the vote secured in quite some time.

117
00:10:50.279 --> 00:10:54.399
Implementation is going to be crazy.
And the amount of lawsuit money I

118
00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:58.559
can't even imagine. And that has
to do with your kids schools, and

119
00:10:58.639 --> 00:11:05.840
we'll talk about that coming up up
here on the case O Day Radio program.

120
00:11:07.000 --> 00:11:11.480
The show after the show is on
the iHeartRadio app. Searchs case O

121
00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:18.360
Day for the podcast on the iHeartRadio
app. All right, welcome back.

122
00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:24.799
It is six twenty three here on
the case O Day Radio program. This

123
00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:33.039
is the headline from w r L
GOP lawmakers want to pay for students private

124
00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:37.720
education. How we got here,
what's new and why they face resistance.

125
00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:45.559
So basically this is what is UH
backpack funding, I guess is one of

126
00:11:45.559 --> 00:11:50.080
the terms you use you here described
as money follows the student, although it's

127
00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:56.080
not as simple as that. There's
still going to be a sliding scale if

128
00:11:56.120 --> 00:12:03.759
the current law or proposed law should
say is to pass, which basically that

129
00:12:03.879 --> 00:12:11.320
sliding scale will be dependent on income
levels of the participants. But as you

130
00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:18.440
can imagine, public education have a
kids are freaking out, freaking out saying

131
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:22.799
this will draw dollars away. But
also you have a student that's not going

132
00:12:22.879 --> 00:12:28.559
to be there, so you you
have the money attached to the student,

133
00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:35.120
basically in the way that moneys are
allocated for students anyway in public schools.

134
00:12:35.320 --> 00:12:39.519
Right, That's why they get really
weird about if a kid doesn't meet a

135
00:12:39.559 --> 00:12:48.879
certain number of requirements for attendance,
because that money or that student isn't shown

136
00:12:48.919 --> 00:12:52.320
as a student after a certain number
of days, and it affects funding levels.

137
00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:56.679
Now, it's obscenely complex, and
North Carolina makes it even further complex

138
00:12:58.919 --> 00:13:01.919
just in the way that they do
it, which is somewhat non traditional,

139
00:13:03.159 --> 00:13:09.679
where you have both the state funding
model, you have your federal funding side,

140
00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:15.279
but you also have local funding in
many districts, especially many of these

141
00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:22.000
cities just basically upping certain things as
it pertains to like teachers pay. Okay,

142
00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:26.159
but in this instance it also creates
competition if they're able to put this

143
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:31.879
through. And one of the big
pushbacks that you're seeing is that well,

144
00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:35.679
once you get into a rural area, you're going to there is no other

145
00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:41.799
option. Well, if that's the
case and people live in that, which

146
00:13:41.840 --> 00:13:45.799
it's not, I'll give you some
examples. I'm sure in some places it

147
00:13:45.919 --> 00:13:52.240
is. Some places it isn't.
In those particular areas, then if students

148
00:13:52.279 --> 00:13:56.919
don't have another alternative other than you
know, homeschool or an excessive amount of

149
00:13:56.960 --> 00:14:01.480
travel, then the likelihood is the
students are going to stay in that school,

150
00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:07.080
but in other areas they're going to
have options. And as much as

151
00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:11.600
they want to throw it up on
Twitter saying well this is basically funding for

152
00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:16.159
religious schools, I would remind you
that, yes, in some cases private

153
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:22.679
schools that have either avertly religious overtone
like I'm talking you're going to chapel or

154
00:14:22.759 --> 00:14:28.480
church or mass if it's a Catholic
school. Literally during the course of education

155
00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:35.200
during the week, they have others
where it's thematic right, where it is

156
00:14:35.279 --> 00:14:39.360
part of it, and much of
what they do is seeing through the lens

157
00:14:39.399 --> 00:14:43.120
of But for all practical purposes,
it just feels like a regular old public

158
00:14:43.159 --> 00:14:50.120
school and it runs the gamut of
religion. People fail to realize is that

159
00:14:50.200 --> 00:14:52.759
for a time one of the Islamic
schools in Greensboro, with another one in

160
00:14:52.799 --> 00:15:01.759
Fayetteville, were literally among the most
utilized for voucher vouchers in North Carolina.

161
00:15:03.000 --> 00:15:05.279
Yeah, yeah, I believe it
or not, those are Islamic schools.

162
00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:09.080
They were. They were as just
as if your kid goes to a Baptist

163
00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:15.559
private school or any other Christian or
Catholic or Jewish for that matter, or

164
00:15:15.559 --> 00:15:18.960
whatever it is. They were utilized. Greensboro had the largest, or I

165
00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:22.200
believe they were number one for a
while. I can't remember the name of

166
00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:26.080
the school off the top of my
head. But you look this stuff up

167
00:15:28.039 --> 00:15:31.519
and as you saw expansion, I
saw people were going, well, now

168
00:15:31.559 --> 00:15:35.159
it's not the number one anymore.
Well, you're still limited by what percentage

169
00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:41.480
of students come from families that practice
Islam, who are going to be likely

170
00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:48.279
to send their kid there, or
more likely, I should argue but you

171
00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:52.039
still you still had this fight every
year over the limitations on the number of

172
00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:58.600
vouchers. This opens it up and
as a result, it also opens up

173
00:15:58.639 --> 00:16:03.799
the ability of schools. Tom And
in a rural area where I saw somebody

174
00:16:03.799 --> 00:16:07.879
who's from Pamlico County, right,
we would agree that that's a rural area,

175
00:16:07.919 --> 00:16:11.600
would we? They have three They
have three school options currently. They

176
00:16:11.600 --> 00:16:15.759
have charter option, they have private
option. I believe it's a Christian academy,

177
00:16:17.120 --> 00:16:22.480
and they have you know, your
traditional public schools. So in other

178
00:16:22.559 --> 00:16:26.240
rural areas, if parents band together
and want to start an alternative, thus

179
00:16:26.279 --> 00:16:32.600
forcing the competition. Now they can
be secured in the fact that if they

180
00:16:32.679 --> 00:16:36.480
build it, they will come in. If they build something the parents want,

181
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:40.919
it creates the competition. This is
a good thing. And we'll talk

182
00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:47.600
more in a moment Your day Smarter
and celebrating ten years of keeping you better

183
00:16:47.600 --> 00:16:52.960
informed one oh six one FM Talk
and News Talk nine four five WPTI more

184
00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:59.080
with Casey starts. Now, Well, you know, there have been a

185
00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:03.720
lot of cutbacks in the world of
media, and there's gonna be more oversight

186
00:17:03.839 --> 00:17:12.319
these things happen. Apparently, ABC
has apologized for a cutaway shot utilized during

187
00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:18.599
the Knicks Heat game yesterday evening.
You know, you know, when you're

188
00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:22.640
watching sports and they do that thing
where they're going to commercial break, they're

189
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:29.079
coming back whatever they're making announcement,
sponsor thank you's, or maybe promoting another

190
00:17:29.119 --> 00:17:33.160
broadcast. They have these transitionary shots, just like we have transitionary audio like

191
00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:38.160
that rejoiner you just heard, except
in this case, obviously you have a

192
00:17:38.240 --> 00:17:42.960
visual component. And so because it's
the Knicks, the New York Knicks playing

193
00:17:44.000 --> 00:17:47.720
the Miami Heat, they're playing in
New York, you're gonna get one of

194
00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:51.319
those standard New York shots. It
could be a hot dog vendor, it

195
00:17:51.359 --> 00:17:53.680
could be here's people skating at Rockefeller
Well not this time of the year,

196
00:17:53.720 --> 00:17:59.440
but you know what I mean.
Or you could do the skyline or the

197
00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:03.680
Statue of Liberty and the skyline.
That's a very popular one. You want

198
00:18:03.759 --> 00:18:10.480
images that scream where you are.
And unfortunately, apparently over at ABC News,

199
00:18:10.559 --> 00:18:15.960
who's headquartered in New York City,
they have been unable to acquire any

200
00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:22.519
additional stock footage of either the Statue
of Liberty and the New York Skyline since

201
00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:30.119
oh September ish of two thousand and
one and Skyline is being generous. It

202
00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:34.160
actually is a shot from a lower
angle of the Statue of Liberty, making

203
00:18:34.200 --> 00:18:40.640
it look more majestic. And the
only other two images that you see in

204
00:18:40.680 --> 00:18:47.279
the photo other than like clouds and
stuff, are the two towers of the

205
00:18:47.319 --> 00:18:56.680
World Trade Center. And just so
we're clear, there was no there was

206
00:18:56.759 --> 00:19:02.279
no kind you know, if there
had been commentary, as today is actually

207
00:19:02.359 --> 00:19:06.759
the anniversary of the raid on the
bin laden compound, right, so if

208
00:19:06.759 --> 00:19:10.079
there was, if there was context, I would understand that. But it

209
00:19:10.160 --> 00:19:11.319
was and it was just a standard. I think it was an ad for

210
00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:17.319
Facebook at the moment they're doing it, you know, met quest or whatever

211
00:19:17.400 --> 00:19:19.759
sponsoring. And there it is a
Statue of Liberty in the two twin towers,

212
00:19:19.920 --> 00:19:26.559
which are more than twenty one years
old at the very least. We

213
00:19:26.599 --> 00:19:30.440
don't actually know how old that shot
is. So in twenty one years,

214
00:19:30.440 --> 00:19:37.039
they've apparently been unable to acquire photography
of the city in which they are head

215
00:19:37.160 --> 00:19:41.359
quartered. That's bad, man,
I mean, how is it impossible?

216
00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:45.720
I know Patrick Ewing was there,
yes, did they think he was playing

217
00:19:45.839 --> 00:19:49.200
or something like? He had thirty
five points? He did? John Starks

218
00:19:49.200 --> 00:19:55.839
go off oh, dude, can't
even look at the box score. Just

219
00:19:57.119 --> 00:20:02.240
it was Patrick Ewing even playing that, I think things they're tired by the

220
00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:11.039
really, you know, I don't
know. I don't know how that doesn't

221
00:20:11.160 --> 00:20:15.920
escape. And even for people who
are like, ah, you know,

222
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:19.400
you know, you're just look at
you're looking at a file. I've heard

223
00:20:19.400 --> 00:20:23.640
people make this excuse from from a
video standpoint, and I'm sorry, it

224
00:20:23.640 --> 00:20:27.599
just doesn't work like that. There's, at the very least there's still images.

225
00:20:27.640 --> 00:20:33.440
This seems to be a still image. Actually it's kind of hard to

226
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:37.480
tell, just because there's not a
lot of action in the photo at stationary

227
00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:47.160
items. But no, um no, how about just no, there's just

228
00:20:47.240 --> 00:20:51.559
no frigging way, shape or form
that you don't notice that, especially as

229
00:20:51.720 --> 00:20:56.119
prominent as it's not just the skyline
it is the two twin Towers and the

230
00:20:56.160 --> 00:21:00.160
Statue of Liberty. You only have
three things to worry about. And yet

231
00:21:00.240 --> 00:21:03.599
that's what happened, all right anyway, six thirty eight case O Day Radio

232
00:21:03.599 --> 00:21:07.039
pro. I'm trying to remember who'd
be even playing for the Heat back in

233
00:21:07.119 --> 00:21:22.279
that time, like Glenn Rice Alonzo
Mourning. I don't even know. I'd

234
00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:25.319
have to literally I'd have to call
up a thing. But anyway, let

235
00:21:25.319 --> 00:21:29.319
me grab a call here, Jamal, what's up, hey, Taylor Ross?

236
00:21:29.400 --> 00:21:33.440
That Patrick ewing at that by that
time they got traded. I believe

237
00:21:33.519 --> 00:21:37.079
to the Orlando Magic. They're trading
him to the Orlando Magic by two thousand

238
00:21:37.119 --> 00:21:42.000
and one. But I say this
casey as someone who has children in a

239
00:21:42.160 --> 00:21:48.799
private Christian academy. I think the
Republican Party did great by saying we can

240
00:21:48.880 --> 00:21:52.759
get some of our money back.
However, I think the Republican Party needs

241
00:21:52.799 --> 00:22:00.359
to stop worrying about Democratic activist.
I put my child in private school because

242
00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:03.920
I don't want them being taught by
durm public schools. I don't want my

243
00:22:04.079 --> 00:22:08.720
children learning that just because they're black
little girls, they're always gonna have a

244
00:22:08.839 --> 00:22:14.640
whole and now everything America ever wanted
to do was aunt your mama and they

245
00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:18.799
blackness, all racism. I didn't
want that from Durham public schools. I

246
00:22:18.839 --> 00:22:22.240
didn't put my children. That's why
I work overtime. That's why I took

247
00:22:22.559 --> 00:22:26.599
ah fat classes to become certified age
back and now trying to become certify plumb.

248
00:22:26.960 --> 00:22:30.559
This is why I did that.
This is why I worked for a

249
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:34.000
great company. They letting me work
my overtime because I put my children in

250
00:22:34.079 --> 00:22:38.200
private school, I don't want nothing
to do with Duram Public schools. They

251
00:22:38.279 --> 00:22:45.559
sat there and they kept the schools
closed a whole year and a half longer

252
00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:48.680
than my children's school they go to
now. And my children are doing good,

253
00:22:48.759 --> 00:22:52.799
they're they're doing great. I don't
have to work about a teacher coming

254
00:22:52.839 --> 00:22:59.279
in the classroom trying to translate the
kids. I'm not having that at the

255
00:22:59.319 --> 00:23:03.200
Christian school children go to. I
don't have to worry about drad clings in

256
00:23:03.279 --> 00:23:07.039
the school, don't get to worry
about debt. So if you want to

257
00:23:07.160 --> 00:23:14.559
know, and the Republicans fail to
bring parents like myself who are outspoken and

258
00:23:14.839 --> 00:23:18.160
want their kids the money to follow
the kids. No, I don't want

259
00:23:18.279 --> 00:23:25.359
not a dime of money that John
Public Schools didn't for my children to get

260
00:23:25.440 --> 00:23:30.119
it. No change the way you
are. Republicans. They did good.

261
00:23:30.200 --> 00:23:34.599
I gotta men, they did good
with the Boksey well gold On. It

262
00:23:34.680 --> 00:23:37.880
ain't passed yet. It looks like
they have the votes and you're gonna ge

263
00:23:37.880 --> 00:23:41.519
after the process, and look if
they get it passed and they get it

264
00:23:41.599 --> 00:23:45.680
overridden, which likely have to happen
because Cooper is going to veto that.

265
00:23:45.720 --> 00:23:48.519
But they seem to have the votes
thanks to I caught them coming over.

266
00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:52.839
I'll give them a big old kudos
unless there's some aspect of this that I'm

267
00:23:52.839 --> 00:23:56.279
missing, and it needs to be
functional in the way the parents are able

268
00:23:56.319 --> 00:24:00.880
to easily do it. But you
would agree that parents have become much more

269
00:24:00.920 --> 00:24:06.240
outspoken. And I warned this during
the pandemic. I said, right now,

270
00:24:06.519 --> 00:24:11.839
public schools are squandering supporters, and
they're doing it at an alarming rate.

271
00:24:11.000 --> 00:24:15.960
And if you remember when we did
have shut down, and we did

272
00:24:15.079 --> 00:24:18.440
have private schools that shut down as
well. Once things started to reopen,

273
00:24:19.200 --> 00:24:22.440
private schools were at the head of
this, and they were first through the

274
00:24:22.480 --> 00:24:26.799
wall. They took the brunt of
it because every day some news outlet was

275
00:24:26.880 --> 00:24:32.319
doing a story about how they're trying
to kill their kids and how irresponsible these

276
00:24:32.400 --> 00:24:36.559
parents are and it's just horrible.
And I'm telling you, between that and

277
00:24:36.680 --> 00:24:38.640
what people were learning more and more
about what their kids were learning, it

278
00:24:38.799 --> 00:24:44.119
was a tipping point. It was
the primust of opportunities to do this,

279
00:24:45.000 --> 00:24:48.680
and I'm not glad to see that
the momentum moving forward, just doing it.

280
00:24:48.920 --> 00:24:51.640
You know, at the end of
the day, I'm the one who

281
00:24:51.799 --> 00:24:56.559
is the least arbitrary here because I
don't have a kid, so I don't

282
00:24:56.599 --> 00:25:00.359
have to make that decision. There's
no possibility that the moneys that I paying

283
00:25:00.359 --> 00:25:04.960
for school funding, that I will
ever see that in any way, shape

284
00:25:06.039 --> 00:25:07.599
or form back to me unless I
decided, Hey, you know what,

285
00:25:07.680 --> 00:25:11.880
I need a kid because tax credit. So and I'm thinking this is a

286
00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:18.079
good idea because I genuinely want people
to have the opportunities, and I want

287
00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:23.680
competition to drive a better quality of
service wherever it may be, especially when

288
00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:29.160
dealing with a governmental entity. And
you know what, Casey, And I'm

289
00:25:29.160 --> 00:25:30.799
gonna say this to you, Casey, I hope and praying five years.

290
00:25:30.839 --> 00:25:34.000
You tell about two to three kids. I can't wait. You know you're

291
00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:37.359
gonna settle down, man, but
you're gonna have three, three to five

292
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:41.920
kids. Hey, I want it. I wanted all three to five boys.

293
00:25:41.000 --> 00:25:45.720
And I'm almost if my wife could
just give me one more chance and

294
00:25:45.839 --> 00:25:48.480
I get three kids. I have
three. But Casey, this is the

295
00:25:48.559 --> 00:25:53.119
thing. Republicans have to start calling
on fans to come down there and tell

296
00:25:53.400 --> 00:25:57.599
our stories of why we put our
children in private school because here's the thing.

297
00:25:57.680 --> 00:26:03.240
Everybody complain about schools because private schools
don't put up with their breasts.

298
00:26:03.599 --> 00:26:07.000
I'm from Rocky Mountain and we saw
that fight that happened with the student attacking

299
00:26:07.039 --> 00:26:11.160
the teacher. Well, you don't
have that in private school because those type

300
00:26:11.200 --> 00:26:14.799
of children that display that behavior,
they're not going to stay in the school.

301
00:26:14.920 --> 00:26:18.240
They're not gonna even private schools aren't
even putting up with that crowd.

302
00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:22.759
They'll throw you out. And too
many of these activists want to keep children

303
00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:26.640
in school. One because Barack Obama
did a twenty fourteen saying oh yeah,

304
00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:33.359
yeah, suspending too many black children
and in Latino children. So you know,

305
00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:36.160
you got to explain to why people
don't know if that's what really hurts

306
00:26:36.200 --> 00:26:40.519
schools too. But in private schools, we don't have to worry about our

307
00:26:40.640 --> 00:26:42.640
children have to wear about keep at
catching the game. Fights. You don't

308
00:26:42.680 --> 00:26:45.759
have to worry about that because you
fight in a private Christian academy, you're

309
00:26:45.799 --> 00:26:48.920
getting thrown out. And a lot
of people like to stick their kids in

310
00:26:49.119 --> 00:26:53.160
school as a private daycare. And
that's why our schools are getting bad.

311
00:26:53.920 --> 00:27:00.359
Just to know that during this pandemic
casing the school. My children, they

312
00:27:00.440 --> 00:27:04.160
had to do that stupid man's thing
because of Durham City, but they still

313
00:27:04.359 --> 00:27:10.880
was opened, had contact, had
things and my children. If you are

314
00:27:11.039 --> 00:27:14.279
better off now than what those kids
that was in private school, I mean,

315
00:27:14.319 --> 00:27:18.359
excuse me, public schools who waited
a whole year and have some too

316
00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:25.039
in order to go back to schools
and Republicans need to contact the local Republican

317
00:27:25.240 --> 00:27:30.400
gops Durham County GOP wait Cound of
gilp Join County GOP person County GOP.

318
00:27:30.880 --> 00:27:36.119
Ask them, Hey, who are
your people that goals to private school who

319
00:27:36.200 --> 00:27:41.759
are outspoken about this? Help them
come to the capital and speak and tell

320
00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:45.680
people. I don't want your public
school crap. This is why I don't

321
00:27:45.720 --> 00:27:49.119
care if you call this diversity.
I don't care if you call this police.

322
00:27:49.160 --> 00:27:52.240
I'm not gonna tell my children a
man can be a boy, and

323
00:27:52.960 --> 00:27:56.200
a man can be a woman,
and a woman can be a man.

324
00:27:56.240 --> 00:27:59.319
I'm not gonna tell my children.
And I don't want no school teaching my

325
00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:03.119
children that. Yeah a Jamal,
just because I got I got up against

326
00:28:03.160 --> 00:28:07.319
the clock. I completely understand what
you're saying. And those are decisions.

327
00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:10.799
By the way, when public schools
are now having to compete, that they're

328
00:28:10.839 --> 00:28:14.359
going to wrestle with because if they
realize that that turns a certain number of

329
00:28:14.440 --> 00:28:18.400
parents off because they just want the
basic academics, that's going to be you

330
00:28:18.519 --> 00:28:21.880
know, that's going to be something
that they're going to have to look at.

331
00:28:21.920 --> 00:28:26.319
But I would say this, if
they want testimonials on parents who avail

332
00:28:26.440 --> 00:28:30.319
themselves of private schools and love it, in most cases, they need only

333
00:28:30.400 --> 00:28:37.480
look across the aisle, whether it's
the governor of North Carolina, Yeah,

334
00:28:37.799 --> 00:28:41.599
and and ask them, you know, you made this decision, do you

335
00:28:41.680 --> 00:28:44.599
feel that it was beneficial? And
they'll haramp and they won't answer it.

336
00:28:44.680 --> 00:28:48.720
In they'll off to skate. But
ultimately the opportunities abound. Jamal, I

337
00:28:48.759 --> 00:28:52.240
gotta go. Thank you very much
for the call this morning. Okay,

338
00:28:52.160 --> 00:28:56.400
oh okay, case they still play
for you to have three keys, right,

339
00:28:56.480 --> 00:28:57.240
don't? All right? Well,
you know what, I hope you

340
00:28:57.279 --> 00:29:04.440
get shingles. Okay, I'm kidding, all right now. I like kids

341
00:29:04.559 --> 00:29:07.039
just fine, So I'd just like
to, you know, sleep on the

342
00:29:07.079 --> 00:29:11.920
weekends too, all right. Six
forty seven case O Day Radio program Hanging

343
00:29:11.559 --> 00:29:18.559
celebrating ten years and still going strong. Thank you. Casey is one four

344
00:29:18.680 --> 00:29:22.039
five w PTI in the Triad and
one o six one FM Talk in the

345
00:29:22.160 --> 00:29:29.039
Triangle. So actually kind of a
busy weekend for stuff. He had,

346
00:29:29.680 --> 00:29:37.400
you know, hockey hockey playoffs at
NBA on the sports side of those two,

347
00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:44.319
and then of course the NFL Draft
which actually started on Thursday into Friday

348
00:29:44.359 --> 00:29:48.079
and then Saturday with the you know, the rest of the draft picks there.

349
00:29:49.400 --> 00:29:53.119
So you know, you had that
aspect of things that were going on.

350
00:29:53.279 --> 00:29:59.720
You had what I guess they referred
to his NERD prom the White House

351
00:29:59.759 --> 00:30:03.039
Core Respondence Dinner, which boy boyd, we got some audio from that.

352
00:30:03.119 --> 00:30:07.440
We're going to get into to kick
off the next hour. But yeah,

353
00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:11.160
here a lot out there, a
lot of stuff going on, and the

354
00:30:11.240 --> 00:30:12.880
news cycle didn't wait. In fact, let me just real quickly on a

355
00:30:14.319 --> 00:30:18.279
couple of things with the draft if
I could for just a moment. Dion

356
00:30:18.400 --> 00:30:27.079
Sanders is very upset by the way. Beyond Sanders has been been angry here

357
00:30:27.119 --> 00:30:32.039
as of late. If you don't
know, Sanders was brought in to the

358
00:30:32.200 --> 00:30:41.079
University of Colorado the Buffalo's to be
their football head coach pulled away ironically from

359
00:30:41.119 --> 00:30:48.200
an HBCU Jackson State, where he
had he had really really a lot of

360
00:30:48.279 --> 00:30:52.000
success in recruiting. Initially, I
was getting some big names down there.

361
00:30:52.319 --> 00:30:56.480
Of course we got into this,
this whole portal thing, this transfer portal.

362
00:30:56.960 --> 00:31:00.680
COVID drove this, and some rule
changes drove this. Some players following

363
00:31:00.759 --> 00:31:04.200
him to Colorado, some who did
instead went to other schools after they went

364
00:31:04.240 --> 00:31:08.920
to Colorado. And you could tell
that that chapter him. But now he's

365
00:31:08.960 --> 00:31:14.680
just very upset over the draft position
of Isaiah Bolden. And if you don't

366
00:31:14.680 --> 00:31:18.400
know who that is, I didn't
either, But he is a cornerback from

367
00:31:18.599 --> 00:31:27.599
Jackson State, and he went in
the seventh round and was the only HBCU

368
00:31:27.880 --> 00:31:33.519
player selected in the draft. And
that's what set Sanders off. One.

369
00:31:33.680 --> 00:31:38.839
He's his guy, right recruited him. Obviously, he's really proud of him,

370
00:31:40.480 --> 00:31:45.000
and you know, once all the
best for him, and I understand

371
00:31:45.079 --> 00:31:48.799
that, but you know, he
said, very proud of you, Isaiah

372
00:31:48.839 --> 00:31:52.319
Bolden. You deserve to be drafted
much higher. I know how much you

373
00:31:52.440 --> 00:31:56.880
want this. I'm ashamed of the
thirty one other NFL teams that couldn't find

374
00:31:56.039 --> 00:32:01.720
draft value in all of the talented
h BCU players and we had three more

375
00:32:01.920 --> 00:32:07.000
draftworthy players. All right, look, here's the deal. And it's one

376
00:32:07.039 --> 00:32:12.519
thing to air your frustration there,
but it then prompts this bigger discussion where

377
00:32:12.519 --> 00:32:19.039
everyone's accused in the NFL of being
racists for HBCU players. And I'm telling

378
00:32:19.119 --> 00:32:22.240
you, I just this is the
stuff that I don't understand when you get

379
00:32:22.279 --> 00:32:28.400
into professional sports, which is all
about money. Now, are there some

380
00:32:28.680 --> 00:32:31.759
things that trump money? They appear
to, but they really don't. And

381
00:32:31.880 --> 00:32:36.839
here's what I mean, Like when
we get into discussions about off the field

382
00:32:36.920 --> 00:32:42.240
issues. So if you have if
you have a player in college who's out

383
00:32:42.319 --> 00:32:47.200
there and you know, gets into
some sort of police issue, whether it's

384
00:32:47.240 --> 00:32:53.440
stealing crab legs or laptops or driving
and street racing to the point where somebody

385
00:32:53.519 --> 00:32:59.279
gets killed, Teams are going to
look at this stuff and maturity and these

386
00:32:59.359 --> 00:33:04.039
types of things do reflect And any
any any kids going into the NFL draft

387
00:33:04.079 --> 00:33:07.640
coming out of school, I guess
they're not kids. But any young man

388
00:33:07.720 --> 00:33:12.519
who is going into the NFL Draft
has that level of talent and has that

389
00:33:12.640 --> 00:33:15.039
level of talent in college, there's
a thousand people around him telling him,

390
00:33:15.119 --> 00:33:20.119
hey, you just don't screw this
up. It will impact you. Look

391
00:33:20.160 --> 00:33:28.079
at Jalen Carter. He didn't drop
as far as people thought he was going

392
00:33:28.160 --> 00:33:30.480
to, but there were some concerns
there. He was doing the street racing

393
00:33:30.599 --> 00:33:34.920
thing, and you know what,
we all do, dumb stuff. You

394
00:33:35.039 --> 00:33:37.839
do dumb stuff in high school college, and I think he got to balance

395
00:33:37.960 --> 00:33:39.519
that and you're gonna you know.
I didn't have a conversation with him,

396
00:33:39.559 --> 00:33:43.960
and I hope he's a successful player
except for any games where we play against

397
00:33:44.160 --> 00:33:49.319
what the Eagles took him. I
hope he hasn't off any of those days.

398
00:33:49.440 --> 00:33:54.599
But it's not necessarily behavior issue on
the part of HBCU. There are

399
00:33:54.720 --> 00:34:00.079
other intangibles that people are looking at, one of which is competition that they

400
00:34:00.200 --> 00:34:07.720
play. You may have immense talent, and there are very talented players.

401
00:34:07.799 --> 00:34:09.199
Let me give you a list of
just a few players that have come out

402
00:34:09.239 --> 00:34:14.239
of historically black colleges and universities.
You may have heard of some of them.

403
00:34:14.760 --> 00:34:22.840
Michael Strahan, Jerry Rice, Walter
Payton, and there is there's literally

404
00:34:23.000 --> 00:34:29.280
hundreds of others who have been part
of the NFL Draft coming from HBCUs.

405
00:34:30.800 --> 00:34:36.280
However, that number has declined,
but it hasn't just declined for HBCUs in

406
00:34:36.360 --> 00:34:42.400
the sense that smaller schools aren't having
as many players drafted. The concentration of

407
00:34:43.360 --> 00:34:50.639
NFL quality or level potential level talent
in universities has become far more concentrated,

408
00:34:50.880 --> 00:34:54.639
and arguably even when you get into
that top division one has been far more

409
00:34:54.719 --> 00:35:02.760
concentrated into certain divisions. That's the
reality of it. So unless you really

410
00:35:02.840 --> 00:35:07.639
really stand out of there's some other
intangibles. This is the reality. Not

411
00:35:07.800 --> 00:35:12.639
just for HBCUs, it's the reality
for many smaller schools, schools that don't

412
00:35:12.679 --> 00:35:19.800
traditionally get Bowl games. So be
passionate, but let's not start this insanity.

413
00:35:19.880 --> 00:35:49.000
They'll pay for the talent that gets
them the rings. All right,

414
00:35:49.039 --> 00:35:52.679
good morning, everybody. It is
seven oh six. You're on the KCO

415
00:35:52.840 --> 00:36:00.119
day and the radio program phone number
eight eight eight nine three four seven eight

416
00:36:00.320 --> 00:36:07.400
seven four. So look, and
there's a lot of talent from a lot

417
00:36:07.480 --> 00:36:14.280
of schools, be the HBCUs or
even major universities that went undrafted that will

418
00:36:14.400 --> 00:36:21.880
eventually find themselves with a shot at
the NFL because you know, these teams

419
00:36:21.920 --> 00:36:24.400
can go out and grab them and
sometimes that strategy too, because when you

420
00:36:24.519 --> 00:36:30.440
draft somebody, you're making financial investment. You're you're rolling the dice. So

421
00:36:30.840 --> 00:36:35.920
especially when you get into later picks, unless somebody is a superstandout talent at

422
00:36:35.960 --> 00:36:43.760
a smaller school, and we have
seen where teams will go out and they

423
00:36:43.840 --> 00:36:49.039
will snag those players. Ross I
remember you guys had a quarterback you drafted

424
00:36:49.119 --> 00:36:55.199
from what people would consider a nonpowerhouse
division and a nonpowerhouse university in that division.

425
00:36:57.360 --> 00:37:00.199
That worked out pretty well for you
guys. I'm thinking, yeah,

426
00:37:00.199 --> 00:37:02.119
he turned out to be the goat. So it's been pretty good. And

427
00:37:02.519 --> 00:37:07.000
you know those stories exist out there. Obviously, you've had quarterbacks from like

428
00:37:07.119 --> 00:37:13.639
North Dakota State that have flourished in
recent years. So you know, if

429
00:37:13.679 --> 00:37:16.920
you want to turn it into an
issue where well obviously racisms of foot,

430
00:37:17.159 --> 00:37:22.800
it's that HBCUs are not very competitive. That's not a rule, but not

431
00:37:23.039 --> 00:37:30.039
very competitive in the current college landscape, and non HBCUs in divisions that don't

432
00:37:30.119 --> 00:37:36.280
start with you know an S or
or a you know a Big ten style

433
00:37:36.360 --> 00:37:42.480
division. Basically three divisions rule the
roost on this. You know where you're

434
00:37:42.480 --> 00:37:45.480
gonna get the majority of your high
talent and it's because it's so easy for

435
00:37:45.599 --> 00:37:49.960
kids to move to these divisions since
become a recruiting thing all in its own.

436
00:37:50.880 --> 00:37:53.000
But other players will get out there. I saw what did NC State

437
00:37:53.159 --> 00:37:58.039
end up with. I think what
Zavala got taken. But other than that,

438
00:37:58.119 --> 00:38:01.000
I think they had what five or
six lads players? Two of the

439
00:38:01.079 --> 00:38:07.000
linebackers, the who's the kicker done? Christopher Don'll probably get picked up by

440
00:38:07.039 --> 00:38:13.800
a team given a shot. So
uh yeah, and you know if Isaiah

441
00:38:13.880 --> 00:38:15.679
Moore and Thomas and I can't remember
who the other one was, is the

442
00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:23.400
dirting frenzy State. I mean they're
from a draft grade standpoint, they're in

443
00:38:23.480 --> 00:38:30.159
that window, and some players take
pretty crazy routes to NFL success or at

444
00:38:30.199 --> 00:38:36.239
least NFL rosters. Buffalo got a
guy from ECU. Oh you know what?

445
00:38:36.440 --> 00:38:42.360
Yeah, absolutely Noaherson. By the
way, I did review. I

446
00:38:42.480 --> 00:38:46.639
did look it over there. Um
obviously wanted to see what was up with

447
00:38:46.800 --> 00:38:55.159
the the Was he from ECU or
did he played ECU and then transferred to

448
00:38:55.199 --> 00:38:59.639
another school? So it was crazy
this year the number of kids that played

449
00:38:59.679 --> 00:39:02.880
it two different universities. But you're
pretty happy with your draft stuff overall,

450
00:39:02.960 --> 00:39:08.039
right, Yeah, it wasn't bad. Vikings just crapped the bed man.

451
00:39:08.199 --> 00:39:10.239
I don't know, I don't know
what. I don't know what the hell

452
00:39:10.320 --> 00:39:13.840
we were doing. Yeah, we
got Josh a few more weapons, we

453
00:39:14.000 --> 00:39:16.599
improved the oh line, So I'm
happy with it. Yeah. So I

454
00:39:16.679 --> 00:39:20.400
know a lot of teams, you
know, it's the whole. Some teams

455
00:39:20.440 --> 00:39:22.719
come out looking great. Some look
like what a waste of their time?

456
00:39:22.880 --> 00:39:25.119
But listen, man, they do
these like scores in the draft. You

457
00:39:25.159 --> 00:39:28.280
know, they're like, ah,
you know, a plus for you,

458
00:39:28.400 --> 00:39:30.559
a minus for you, and it's
like, you really don't know. I

459
00:39:30.639 --> 00:39:34.840
mean, it's all they're they're all
just they're just guessing. Because you could

460
00:39:34.840 --> 00:39:38.079
have somebody that's it's great and it
turns out that they're a flop. You're

461
00:39:38.119 --> 00:39:42.000
not going to know it for like
a year or so. In you know,

462
00:39:42.039 --> 00:39:45.280
who I feel the worst for in
this draft is this year is mister

463
00:39:45.360 --> 00:39:52.079
Irrelevant. Yeah, because obviously everything
that happened with mister Irrelevant from the previous

464
00:39:52.199 --> 00:39:55.159
year, who ended up, you
know, looking like a stud quarterback there

465
00:39:55.199 --> 00:40:00.400
at the end of the year.
And so if you're think it was a

466
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:05.559
defensive end or somewhere, yeah,
Johnson, uh, Dejean Johnson came out

467
00:40:05.599 --> 00:40:13.800
of Toledo, not exactly powerhouse by
the La Rams. Oh wait, hold

468
00:40:13.840 --> 00:40:20.280
on, I just got this email
here, Man wish Oh this is from

469
00:40:20.559 --> 00:40:23.039
Oh, this is from Corey.
Uh Man. I wish we knew of

470
00:40:23.199 --> 00:40:28.079
anybody who was a late draft pick
and ended up being a really huge player.

471
00:40:28.679 --> 00:40:32.519
Can you guys think of any Um? Yeah, actually I could think

472
00:40:32.599 --> 00:40:37.559
of quite a few that were,
you know, taken very late in the

473
00:40:37.679 --> 00:40:44.840
draft. But um, you know, we don't need to necessarily go down

474
00:40:44.920 --> 00:40:47.039
that list. We got, um, you know, Dan Marino. Dan

475
00:40:47.159 --> 00:40:54.199
Marino was taken pret late. All
right, let's see here, uh Colston,

476
00:40:57.159 --> 00:41:00.000
Um, let's see this is this
is post merger stuff. I'm you

477
00:41:00.079 --> 00:41:06.519
know, I'm just gonna try to
look for things that are Troy Brown Patriots

478
00:41:06.559 --> 00:41:08.440
guy. I think that's probably the
only one from the Patriots I can think

479
00:41:08.519 --> 00:41:17.199
of. Seth Joyner. Let's see
here. Hastleback, I think came out

480
00:41:17.280 --> 00:41:22.239
what he was like six or seventh
round, got himself a Super Bowl.

481
00:41:22.320 --> 00:41:28.280
There. We had a guy for
Minnesota who was very late. His name

482
00:41:28.360 --> 00:41:30.079
is Matt Burke, who had he
played for Harvard, and it was kind

483
00:41:30.119 --> 00:41:36.039
of the same issue. But he
was a pro bowler six or seven times.

484
00:41:37.239 --> 00:41:40.280
Dwight Clark Ross. You remember who
Dwight Clark is. Dwight Clark.

485
00:41:40.280 --> 00:41:45.320
You remember a certain catchy made in
the back of the end zone for the

486
00:41:45.360 --> 00:41:49.320
forty nine ers, Yes, I
do. Yeah, Donald Driver was a

487
00:41:49.440 --> 00:42:00.280
late pick, Terrell Davis, Richard
Dent, Ken Houston, and Shannon Sharpe

488
00:42:00.400 --> 00:42:04.679
was a late pick. And then
that's it. I can't think of anymore.

489
00:42:04.760 --> 00:42:06.679
So yeah, no, I know
what you're saying, dude, Thanks

490
00:42:06.679 --> 00:42:10.639
for the emo. Yeah, Kurt
warn't a great example, obviously. You

491
00:42:10.719 --> 00:42:15.519
know, guy's working at a high
v which is essentially like a Harris Teeter

492
00:42:15.199 --> 00:42:21.960
of the Midwest. It's to shop
at hive stock and shelves, gets a

493
00:42:22.079 --> 00:42:27.239
call, play some Canadian stuff,
boom where you know it. You and

494
00:42:28.199 --> 00:42:32.840
a few of your friends or hoisted
Super Bowl trophies, So the opportunity exists.

495
00:42:35.599 --> 00:42:39.559
Minnesota Vikings were blessed to have Adam
Thielan for so many years. He

496
00:42:39.679 --> 00:42:45.360
played at Minnesota State man Cato didn't
get drafted, didn't even really he showed

497
00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:50.760
up at this this this tryout day. Guy goes on to light it up,

498
00:42:50.920 --> 00:42:57.039
go to the Pro Bowl multiple times, so you know, the path

499
00:42:57.199 --> 00:42:59.639
exists. It's not easy. It's
a lot of hard work, but it

500
00:42:59.840 --> 00:43:01.719
is the reality of things. All
right. Let me get into one of

501
00:43:01.760 --> 00:43:06.440
the other events from over the weekend. Oh and I did enjoy watching parts

502
00:43:06.480 --> 00:43:09.880
of it, especially on Friday where
Thursday and Friday where you get to see

503
00:43:09.960 --> 00:43:21.199
all of the college girlfriends on one
of their last dates. I'm sorry,

504
00:43:21.400 --> 00:43:28.679
that's rude. I'm sure they're all
gonna so they're all gonna stick it out.

505
00:43:29.519 --> 00:43:31.760
It'll be fine. Oh wait,
hold on Boston. Paul's upset feels

506
00:43:31.760 --> 00:43:35.400
that my list was in complete?
Ross you fact checked my list? That

507
00:43:35.559 --> 00:43:39.119
was it was not? Was it
inaccurate? Out? Yeah, sir,

508
00:43:39.239 --> 00:43:45.519
we've it's been. It's been double
peer reviewed. So I don't know what

509
00:43:45.639 --> 00:43:51.199
you think calling in a question there
emailing question in this show. We checked

510
00:43:51.239 --> 00:43:53.280
it out. Looks good. All
right, onto other things. Nerd prom

511
00:43:54.920 --> 00:44:02.920
the White House Correspondent's Dinner, you
know, the one where they decided,

512
00:44:04.199 --> 00:44:07.000
in the absence of Trump one,
what Barack Obama mock Trump. There's famously

513
00:44:07.159 --> 00:44:14.559
that that correspondence dinner when Obama is
still in office, and it's the whole

514
00:44:14.639 --> 00:44:19.719
line about, you know, he's
mocking Donald Trump about presidential aspirations and how

515
00:44:19.760 --> 00:44:22.239
he'll never be president, And if
anyone, one of the most one of

516
00:44:22.280 --> 00:44:29.480
the most amazing montage videos, I
think in recent memory, or not even

517
00:44:29.519 --> 00:44:32.679
so recent memory, probably of all
time is that video, which there's one

518
00:44:32.719 --> 00:44:37.440
hundred versions of the original one,
which is about six minute long, six

519
00:44:37.519 --> 00:44:40.800
minutes long, and shows all of
these folks that Donald Trump never be president,

520
00:44:42.800 --> 00:44:45.639
people on Bill Maher laughing about it, when Ann Coulter says that he's

521
00:44:45.679 --> 00:44:51.960
the front runner, Barack Obama mocking
him a couple of times. Tom Hanks

522
00:44:52.119 --> 00:44:54.360
is in there, just all of
this stuff, and then of course there's

523
00:44:54.440 --> 00:44:59.360
the lead up of each state and
every time they call it for Trump and

524
00:44:59.480 --> 00:45:04.519
the pan nick in this sounds made
by the analysts on the various networks.

525
00:45:04.559 --> 00:45:12.239
And then eventually here's Trump walking across
the stage after finding out he'd won,

526
00:45:12.440 --> 00:45:21.440
him and his family. So you
know, these um, there are there

527
00:45:21.480 --> 00:45:25.800
are moments that stick with us,
and there were arguably a few in this

528
00:45:27.000 --> 00:45:32.719
Weekend's one where you had, um, I think what was some actual astute

529
00:45:32.760 --> 00:45:37.079
analysis by political commentator by the name
was Scott Jennings who works for CNN,

530
00:45:37.119 --> 00:45:40.639
and I never thought i'd say that, and it was based on a joke

531
00:45:43.199 --> 00:45:46.440
that was done by the comedian,
because I was good a comedian to go

532
00:45:46.559 --> 00:45:52.760
in there. Roy Wood Junior was
the comedian. I think he's a funny

533
00:45:52.840 --> 00:45:57.679
dude, and he dropped a little
little truth, little truth. Check this

534
00:45:57.840 --> 00:46:01.199
out. I don't know about for
me, um, the easiest scandal to

535
00:46:01.360 --> 00:46:06.320
follow was the Trump documents scandal.
That was the one that was easy to

536
00:46:06.360 --> 00:46:07.760
follow. It was simple, there's
some stuff that's supposed to be in the

537
00:46:07.800 --> 00:46:14.840
White House that ain't and the media, y'all did y'all's job. Y'all jumped

538
00:46:14.840 --> 00:46:17.519
on that story. As soon as
the Trump documents story broke, everybody was

539
00:46:17.599 --> 00:46:22.639
down to moralogle. We're reporting love
from the documents and we're going to find

540
00:46:22.719 --> 00:46:25.519
him. And then we found out
Joe Biden had documents too, and it

541
00:46:25.639 --> 00:46:30.559
was like, oh, it's not
a big deal. I started. Everybody

542
00:46:30.599 --> 00:46:32.719
got documents, everybody got document.
Mike Pith has some document about them.

543
00:46:32.760 --> 00:46:42.880
Oh look the Chinese bib balloon.
Would you look at that? Well done?

544
00:46:42.960 --> 00:46:45.880
Media? Yeah, and so they're
laughing it up, right, that's

545
00:46:45.960 --> 00:46:49.800
funny. That is That is the
prettiest student indictment of the way that they

546
00:46:49.880 --> 00:46:52.679
handled it, and everyone's just busting
up, including Joe Biden. He's busting

547
00:46:52.760 --> 00:46:57.599
up while they're talking about how he's
got documents that he shouldn't have in his

548
00:46:57.800 --> 00:47:02.639
garage sitting next to his corvette or
whatever. But it was what Joe Biden

549
00:47:02.800 --> 00:47:07.639
said that raise the ire of at
least some political analysts, and rightfully so.

550
00:47:07.960 --> 00:47:10.719
Here is one of the jokes that
Joe Biden, I'm sure totally wrote

551
00:47:10.800 --> 00:47:14.800
himself, totally off the cuff.
Here we go a lot of ways.

552
00:47:14.840 --> 00:47:19.880
This dinner sums up my first two
years in office. I'll talk for ten

553
00:47:19.960 --> 00:47:24.639
minutes, takes zero questions, and
cheerfully walk away. They're laughing. They

554
00:47:24.719 --> 00:47:30.760
think that's funny. But you know
what, that's true, and they should

555
00:47:30.760 --> 00:47:37.079
be embarrassed either that they're not trying
hard enough or they should be upset that

556
00:47:37.199 --> 00:47:39.519
this individual is not giving them the
access that they claim they're entitled to.

557
00:47:40.519 --> 00:47:45.440
And I know they claimed that because
they were. They would whine that Donald

558
00:47:45.480 --> 00:47:51.719
Trump wasn't doing enough pressers and that
guy would hold marathon press conferences. Was

559
00:47:51.960 --> 00:47:55.880
crazy and at least for one person, the Scott Jennings over on seeing and

560
00:47:57.000 --> 00:48:00.880
he called it out for what it
is. Then the line that will stick

561
00:48:00.920 --> 00:48:04.079
with me is in a lot of
ways, this dinner sums up my first

562
00:48:04.119 --> 00:48:07.400
two years in office. I'll talk
for ten minutes, take zero questions,

563
00:48:07.400 --> 00:48:10.320
and cheerfully walk away. I'm just
gonna for the journalists in the room.

564
00:48:10.440 --> 00:48:14.440
He wasn't laughing with you, he
was laughing at you. I mean,

565
00:48:14.679 --> 00:48:17.320
the reality is, I think he's
mocking the press. The guy does not

566
00:48:17.440 --> 00:48:21.840
take questions. That he's up there
joking about it, and I just and

567
00:48:21.880 --> 00:48:24.119
they're clapping and they're laughing about it, and I I don't know. I

568
00:48:24.199 --> 00:48:28.360
just I think he owes. I'm
I'm pro reporter, and I think the

569
00:48:28.400 --> 00:48:30.960
President United States ought I have to
talk to these reporters and not mock them.

570
00:48:31.719 --> 00:48:36.400
Now, that is that is a
well one. That is an astute

571
00:48:36.440 --> 00:48:39.000
point because I agree with that,
so therefore I will call it a stute

572
00:48:39.039 --> 00:48:44.800
But yeah, yeah, he is. And you're all clapping along like seals.

573
00:48:45.480 --> 00:48:50.559
And while access is one half of
the discussion, the quality of the

574
00:48:50.719 --> 00:48:53.159
access in the sense that you know, you're actually able to ask your own

575
00:48:53.239 --> 00:48:58.320
questions or you don't have to pre
pre feed him, that's a whole other

576
00:48:58.440 --> 00:49:01.639
issue that we've been discussing for week
and the question should be substantive. There's

577
00:49:01.719 --> 00:49:07.039
more than enough here to dig into
if you want to, but to let

578
00:49:07.079 --> 00:49:12.719
you know the general attitude of how
they award, you know, the best

579
00:49:12.800 --> 00:49:17.000
of the best within their own little
group, the White House Correspondence. Under

580
00:49:17.079 --> 00:49:21.199
Donald Trump, it was, you
know that people were getting awards for stories

581
00:49:21.239 --> 00:49:22.760
that, by the way, it
turned out having to be retracted in two

582
00:49:22.840 --> 00:49:30.320
instances and at the very least we're
highly suspect in the other. But they

583
00:49:30.360 --> 00:49:36.280
were gotcha stories. Listen to this
year's winner for the Spirit Award, right,

584
00:49:36.400 --> 00:49:39.800
So this is to best embody what
it means to be a White House

585
00:49:40.320 --> 00:49:46.000
reporter, somebody who is there at
the threshold of power, holding to account

586
00:49:46.480 --> 00:49:51.920
those in the highest office in the
land and arguably the highest office in the

587
00:49:52.000 --> 00:49:57.400
world, the leader of the free
world. And this is this is how

588
00:49:57.519 --> 00:50:00.480
you This is how you get a
win. This year Beckman Award for Overall

589
00:50:00.559 --> 00:50:05.800
Excellence in White House Coverage is named
for a former Association president, the late

590
00:50:05.920 --> 00:50:09.960
Chicago Tribune correspondent Aldo Beckman. This
year, the award goes to Matt Visor

591
00:50:10.039 --> 00:50:19.840
of the Washington Post. Wait judges
said Matt Visor stood out among his competitors

592
00:50:19.920 --> 00:50:23.119
for work that went beyond the humdrum
of covering the managed events of the presidency

593
00:50:23.199 --> 00:50:29.559
and the White House Viser captured the
spirit of Joe Biden, particularly with stories

594
00:50:29.559 --> 00:50:34.599
about the president's brother and how his
Catholic faith influenced his strategic vision of the

595
00:50:34.760 --> 00:50:38.800
office. The what WHCA is pleased
to give the Aldo Beckman Award to Mattvisor.

596
00:50:40.679 --> 00:50:44.360
I just want to repeat what you
just said, So Matt Visor,

597
00:50:44.440 --> 00:50:51.400
the Washington Post gets the Spirit Award
for his hard hitting journalism profiling Joe Biden

598
00:50:51.480 --> 00:50:58.679
and his brother and how Biden's Catholic
faith instructs what he does in office.

599
00:51:01.280 --> 00:51:09.880
That's it that it's a celebration of
religion, which I thought was bad if

600
00:51:10.199 --> 00:51:15.800
somebody's a Supreme Court justice nominee and
they happened to be Catholic, right,

601
00:51:15.880 --> 00:51:21.960
attempting to eviscerate her over that.
But how his faith, but arguably in

602
00:51:22.440 --> 00:51:30.840
many Catholics eyes, including several cardinals, might get called into question over some

603
00:51:30.960 --> 00:51:35.199
of the things that Biden supports.
But that's what they decided was the most

604
00:51:35.239 --> 00:51:38.199
hard hitting journalism. And they're probably
not wrong because they're not really chewing into

605
00:51:38.239 --> 00:51:42.480
the meaty stuff. So yeah,
that whole thing is a joke over the

606
00:51:42.559 --> 00:51:47.320
weekend, but unfortunately one that nobody
in the room is self aware during,

607
00:51:49.280 --> 00:51:52.280
hence the results that you get.
All right, seven twenty two, hang

608
00:51:52.360 --> 00:51:57.280
on, all right, long segment
there, but wanted to jam in all

609
00:51:57.320 --> 00:52:00.800
that audio. We're gonna get your
phone calls us. We will roll into

610
00:52:00.880 --> 00:52:05.880
the second half of our number two. Also CNN with some doozy headlines,

611
00:52:05.960 --> 00:52:09.559
thought they were getting out of the
partisan business. And wait to hear what's

612
00:52:09.599 --> 00:52:14.719
coming to the Smithsonian. Just reading
this, missle? All right, hang

613
00:52:14.800 --> 00:52:22.480
loose, it's all next there ten
years of news twice an hour and smart

614
00:52:22.559 --> 00:52:28.039
talk all day nine four five WPTI
in the Triad and one oh six one

615
00:52:28.119 --> 00:52:35.880
FM talk in the Triangle. Well
well, well, well let me hit

616
00:52:35.960 --> 00:52:39.440
this real quick. We're gonna grab
a phone call Grant's been holding on and

617
00:52:39.559 --> 00:52:45.000
then get into this story about the
Smithsonian. You're gonna find rather interesting.

618
00:52:45.000 --> 00:52:49.639
Uh, there we go, all
right, Grant, what's going on?

619
00:52:51.440 --> 00:52:54.719
Oh? I was calling because I
you could call me a California grant if

620
00:52:54.719 --> 00:52:58.840
you want. I lived there thirty
years until I came here three years ago.

621
00:52:59.039 --> 00:53:02.360
Why would I or why would I
do that too? Because I've made

622
00:53:02.400 --> 00:53:07.159
the observation that right under our nose, the media never ever says anybody is

623
00:53:07.599 --> 00:53:12.440
likely to take the spot over Biden
because they don't have anybody. Well,

624
00:53:12.480 --> 00:53:15.519
Gavin Newson certainly doesn't have a good
record, But look at Roy Hooper when

625
00:53:15.519 --> 00:53:19.000
he gives the State of the State
address. You look a guy in a

626
00:53:19.039 --> 00:53:22.800
blue suit and he walks up to
the crowd like he's the president of the

627
00:53:22.880 --> 00:53:27.880
United States. Then when he has
an interview, he sits across like Hannity

628
00:53:27.960 --> 00:53:34.159
sits across from Trump, and everybody
treats him here and like he's the presidential

629
00:53:34.239 --> 00:53:37.440
candidate. But they never mentioned being
kept under wraps. So the Democrats will

630
00:53:37.519 --> 00:53:43.320
unveil him at the last minute,
the October surprise, and he won't have

631
00:53:43.400 --> 00:53:49.480
to go through all the fighting and
the warfare of candidate. But I think

632
00:53:49.559 --> 00:53:54.199
he's he's he's the whore like Reagan
did. I'll make the United States like

633
00:53:54.280 --> 00:53:58.800
I did California. We've got a
best economy in the nation. We're number

634
00:53:59.159 --> 00:54:04.199
nine and we're going to the eighth
largest state economy. Uh, We've got

635
00:54:04.280 --> 00:54:08.000
firepower and we'll win big time.
Well, there's there's parts of that that

636
00:54:08.079 --> 00:54:13.360
I will agree with. I think
that um in Democratic circles, and it's

637
00:54:13.400 --> 00:54:16.480
not so secret. Roy Cooper has
been seen. He was I think he

638
00:54:16.639 --> 00:54:22.719
was seen potentially as somebody who could
have filled Kamala Harris's shoes back in the

639
00:54:22.840 --> 00:54:27.159
day. But he just got yeah
he didn't didn't. Hang on, hang

640
00:54:27.239 --> 00:54:28.920
on, no, no, no, no. I'm agreeing with you,

641
00:54:29.000 --> 00:54:30.639
but let me because there's a couple
of things I don't understand and I want

642
00:54:30.639 --> 00:54:34.360
you to clarify. But where I
agree with you is that, yes,

643
00:54:34.760 --> 00:54:38.599
I think that Roy Cooper has definitely
made inroads in Washington, d C.

644
00:54:38.800 --> 00:54:40.480
And they got to figure out,
Okay, well, what does he do

645
00:54:40.639 --> 00:54:45.559
now since he's getting termed out?
Um, I don't know if he has

646
00:54:45.679 --> 00:54:52.760
the recognition necessary and I don't I
don't know. They are loath to allow

647
00:54:52.920 --> 00:54:57.280
primary to the point where the DNC
has already said that they're not going to

648
00:54:57.360 --> 00:55:00.960
be doing the traditional debates, right
Biden the guy, And they have a

649
00:55:01.039 --> 00:55:06.559
few people like Kennedy in this thing
now who were out there and who were

650
00:55:06.599 --> 00:55:10.719
taking very moderate positions on things.
They're essentially going into the Democrat where they're

651
00:55:10.719 --> 00:55:15.400
not putting up with a lot of
this woke stuff. And I think that

652
00:55:15.559 --> 00:55:20.039
they are very nervous about what that
could mean, because then it starts to

653
00:55:20.119 --> 00:55:27.480
create similarities with potentially maybe not Trump, but perhaps a Republican candidate like Asa

654
00:55:27.559 --> 00:55:31.679
Hutchinson. I just cringed when I
said that um or a even de santist

655
00:55:31.760 --> 00:55:37.400
to some extent. So I don't
I don't understand a process where you think

656
00:55:37.440 --> 00:55:43.599
they could just plant Biden or any
of these guys with with Roy Cooper though,

657
00:55:43.679 --> 00:55:46.719
I mean, what does that look
like. I just think he is

658
00:55:46.840 --> 00:55:52.400
the savior that they'll they'll turn to
and say, hey, all this time,

659
00:55:52.480 --> 00:55:57.840
we've kept quiet about him, but
he's got the image is he even

660
00:55:57.920 --> 00:56:01.880
says that we're not going to emphasis
cultural issues where it's the economy stupid all

661
00:56:01.920 --> 00:56:06.719
over again. And uh, well
he can say that, we can say

662
00:56:06.800 --> 00:56:08.280
that, and I think they would. I agree with you. I think

663
00:56:08.320 --> 00:56:12.239
that's the route they take. They
say, look at North Carolina. The

664
00:56:12.880 --> 00:56:15.159
dirty secret of course being that,
especially when you get into the economic side

665
00:56:15.199 --> 00:56:21.800
of things, largely Republicans are responsible
for the way that the budgeting has worked

666
00:56:21.840 --> 00:56:25.119
in North Carolina. Going back to
agreed, but he'll offer from it.

667
00:56:25.199 --> 00:56:29.920
He'll say, I've been the governor, sure, and people don't know that

668
00:56:30.119 --> 00:56:34.320
nation wide. They'll just look at
him, look at look at Nucon he

669
00:56:34.480 --> 00:56:38.039
claims. Uh, people say he's
he's a he's got the look, he's

670
00:56:38.079 --> 00:56:42.880
got the number of delegates, the
votes, you know, from a state

671
00:56:42.960 --> 00:56:49.400
that's all blue. But I just
think Cooper is the Democrat de sandis well

672
00:56:49.519 --> 00:56:52.480
I with a lot less energy.
Um, you know we uh, well,

673
00:56:52.760 --> 00:56:57.199
they he can get coached. And
I'm not. I'm not not in

674
00:56:57.280 --> 00:56:59.239
favor of them. Don't get me
wrong. R No, no, no,

675
00:56:59.360 --> 00:57:01.679
I know, I just I'm analyzing
along with your grant. So um

676
00:57:01.840 --> 00:57:07.119
but yeah there, yeah, all
right, all right, appreciate the call,

677
00:57:07.239 --> 00:57:09.679
thank you. Yeah. I think
they very much want to do slide

678
00:57:09.719 --> 00:57:14.199
Cooper in somewhere. The problem is
you couldn't give him Harris his spot because

679
00:57:14.599 --> 00:57:19.719
you needed to as the you needed
to tick the boxes that the Biden's campaign

680
00:57:19.920 --> 00:57:22.039
himself said that they were going to
tick. Well, we're going to pick

681
00:57:22.079 --> 00:57:25.039
a woman, We're going to pick
a woman of color. And once that

682
00:57:25.199 --> 00:57:29.719
was said, then that's where the
analysis was. And obviously Roy Cooper unless

683
00:57:29.760 --> 00:57:34.960
he changes how he identifies, um, that's that's where he's at. But

684
00:57:35.280 --> 00:57:39.000
I do think Cooper the grant to
I don't understand the process that Grant thinks

685
00:57:39.039 --> 00:57:44.760
it would be. But I do
understand why Roy Cooper could take that reagant

686
00:57:44.760 --> 00:57:47.679
approach saying, I'm the governor of
a moderate state. I was re elected

687
00:57:47.719 --> 00:57:53.000
even when Donald Trump was you know, elected once again for president, was

688
00:57:53.119 --> 00:57:58.719
both elected and re elected, and
I, um, look at look at

689
00:57:58.760 --> 00:58:02.440
how how the state is growing.
But you know the reality is that when

690
00:58:02.480 --> 00:58:07.280
it comes to a lot of these
uh, these these quote unquote woke issues,

691
00:58:07.840 --> 00:58:10.519
Cooper was very much at the forefront
going out as we talked with me

692
00:58:10.599 --> 00:58:15.519
and Pete Calendar were chatting about on
Friday, going out and actively recruiting companies

693
00:58:15.559 --> 00:58:22.360
to take very public stands against HB
two. So, um, you know

694
00:58:22.480 --> 00:58:24.800
where he goes from here and what
that looks like. I mean, he

695
00:58:24.880 --> 00:58:30.360
could run into Senate race, he
could who knows, he could find himself

696
00:58:30.400 --> 00:58:37.760
in a cabinet position after leaving office
with the next Democrat in office. Try

697
00:58:37.840 --> 00:58:43.760
to build his his his cred and
his visibility from there, all right?

698
00:58:43.840 --> 00:58:47.159
Eight eight eight nine three four seven
eight seventy four. The phone number checked

699
00:58:47.199 --> 00:58:52.360
this out. So a new exhibits
set to open this month at the Smithsonian.

700
00:58:53.199 --> 00:58:59.320
Thank you pop up at the Smithsonian's
Museum. Thank you. Third pop

701
00:58:59.440 --> 00:59:04.239
up. Appreciate that Essence Magazine.
I hate those one. It's just pop

702
00:59:04.360 --> 00:59:07.159
up when I load the page,
but don't do it when I start scrolling.

703
00:59:08.000 --> 00:59:13.559
Set to open this month, the
exhibited Smithsonian's National Museum of African American

704
00:59:13.719 --> 00:59:21.119
History and Culture is going to embrace
the broad and impactful spectrum of afro futurism.

705
00:59:21.599 --> 00:59:23.760
Now, Ross, I actually,
when you hear what's in this exhibit,

706
00:59:23.960 --> 00:59:28.840
or most of it, I think
it sounds pretty cool. So you're

707
00:59:28.920 --> 00:59:38.559
talking about African Americans in history,
much of a recent history that embrace afrofuturism.

708
00:59:38.639 --> 00:59:42.480
I would argue just futurism. It's
got a sci fi edge to it.

709
00:59:42.599 --> 00:59:47.719
Okay. So among the items that
will be exhibited will include plenty of

710
00:59:49.159 --> 00:59:54.559
stories and relics from black astronauts.
Okay, that's cool. Remember one of

711
00:59:54.599 --> 01:00:00.760
the astronauts black astronauts, a very
famous Black ask or Not, was one

712
01:00:00.840 --> 01:00:06.519
of the folks on the Challenger,
Right. It gets gets talked about quite

713
01:00:06.559 --> 01:00:13.159
a bit as Tom and he's got
a he's got a hillacious backstory. It's

714
01:00:13.159 --> 01:00:15.960
a very cool one where basically,
when he was a kid, he would

715
01:00:16.000 --> 01:00:19.880
he would try to go and he
was very interested in space and science,

716
01:00:19.920 --> 01:00:23.760
and he tried to go to a
segregated library and he couldn't get in there.

717
01:00:23.880 --> 01:00:27.840
And there's a whole story with this
in the library is named after him.

718
01:00:27.880 --> 01:00:32.480
Now, so that's the reader's digest
version. It's much more complex than

719
01:00:32.519 --> 01:00:37.119
that, but it's a cool story. Um. They have let's see here,

720
01:00:37.239 --> 01:00:40.800
they have Chadwick Boseman's black panther suit. That'll draw some folks in.

721
01:00:40.920 --> 01:00:45.280
Obviously you're dealing with superheroes and stuff, but I'm cool with that. Uh,

722
01:00:45.480 --> 01:00:52.519
the typewriter, us box, Tavia
Butler, Nonah Henderson's space suit inspired

723
01:00:52.559 --> 01:01:02.159
outfit. Uh, Lieutenant O'Hara's uniform
from Star Trek. Let's see Trayvon Martin's

724
01:01:02.199 --> 01:01:07.599
flight suit. I'm sorry what was
that? What? I'm sorry her?

725
01:01:08.079 --> 01:01:12.199
She was on Star Track Pig Pig
finish, you know all that sounds great.

726
01:01:12.199 --> 01:01:15.280
And the last thing you said,
the typewriter you mean the typewriter,

727
01:01:15.679 --> 01:01:22.840
not the typewriter, Oh, the
Trayvon Martin flight suits. Yeah, yeah,

728
01:01:23.559 --> 01:01:30.639
what, Well, it's afro futurism. What so they just had to

729
01:01:30.760 --> 01:01:35.440
like stick it in there, didn't
they. Well, Trayvon Martin when he

730
01:01:35.559 --> 01:01:39.239
was a boy. U you'd think
of the picture that most people associate with

731
01:01:39.320 --> 01:01:45.559
Trayvon Martin because it was roughly that
age. He was very interested in space

732
01:01:45.679 --> 01:01:49.000
and flights and all of that.
Are they not aware of how that trial

733
01:01:49.119 --> 01:01:52.880
went down and smith sony and they
probably know a lot about history, right,

734
01:01:52.960 --> 01:01:57.719
so they've done their research on that
trial and the facts surrounding it.

735
01:01:58.320 --> 01:02:01.400
Or no, Well, the museum
is entitled you know, African Marian History.

736
01:02:01.719 --> 01:02:06.000
It's in the name there. So
when he was a younger, a

737
01:02:06.119 --> 01:02:13.639
younger man um he was very interested
in working in the aviation field and got

738
01:02:13.679 --> 01:02:20.079
to attend what is called experienced aviation
and he went when he was banging Zimmerman's

739
01:02:20.079 --> 01:02:24.599
head against the curb there, that's
not it's not it's not the that's not

740
01:02:24.760 --> 01:02:30.280
in the exhibit. No, No, are they using the younger photo of

741
01:02:30.440 --> 01:02:32.960
him too, and not the actual
photo of what he looked like jury be

742
01:02:34.239 --> 01:02:37.639
more active. He was kind of
like a big linebacker. They weren't they

743
01:02:37.679 --> 01:02:39.800
would be well, to be fair, the flight suit is sized for his

744
01:02:39.960 --> 01:02:45.280
smaller self, which is that younger
photo when he was just uh twelve and

745
01:02:45.400 --> 01:02:50.679
thirteen, so so he uh it's
a badge of honor for the students to

746
01:02:50.800 --> 01:02:52.800
have the flight suit with the patches
on it, said his father, Tracy

747
01:02:52.880 --> 01:02:57.920
Martin. Um and uh, it
was part of the uniform for the program.

748
01:02:58.079 --> 01:03:00.559
He loved it. He loved it
so much. The exhibit opens March

749
01:03:00.639 --> 01:03:07.119
twenty fourth, and we'll run for
one year at the Bank of America's Special

750
01:03:07.280 --> 01:03:10.599
Exhibitions Gallery. So that's uh,
that'll be out there for you, you

751
01:03:10.639 --> 01:03:15.400
know, if you like museums and
stuff. Seven forty six Race Stagick from

752
01:03:15.440 --> 01:03:20.000
the Weather Channel. We really missed
you last week, really missed you.

753
01:03:20.039 --> 01:03:22.480
We had the NFL Draft going on. It starts Thursday. We could have

754
01:03:22.559 --> 01:03:28.000
talked about all this, So,
um, how's that doing for you?

755
01:03:28.360 --> 01:03:32.599
Shame about that tit end he didn't
get. Yeah, you know he remember

756
01:03:35.960 --> 01:03:42.679
where he went? Yea name,
Yeah, let out a couple of choice

757
01:03:43.679 --> 01:03:45.920
select words. When I saw the
bills, as I said, I knew

758
01:03:46.000 --> 01:03:49.360
it, and I said I knew
there. Take. I said, they're

759
01:03:49.400 --> 01:03:53.199
taking our guy. Did you see
did you see Skip Bayliss lose his mind

760
01:03:53.280 --> 01:03:57.519
and social media over that, He's
like, you did. Buffalo Bills has

761
01:03:57.639 --> 01:04:00.719
ruined my life. I'm like,
really, you ruined you ruin your life?

762
01:04:00.719 --> 01:04:03.360
Really yeah, yeah, right in
my life, and I'm still paying

763
01:04:03.440 --> 01:04:09.559
for it. Yeah, Honestly,
I didn't know much about the Michigan defensive

764
01:04:09.599 --> 01:04:13.480
tackle. I think it was an
okay pick, but I was biased.

765
01:04:13.559 --> 01:04:15.960
I wanted them to go at one
of the Clemson defensive linemen, which it

766
01:04:16.079 --> 01:04:20.480
could have. I mean Brazil went
um twenty nine or thirty, I mean

767
01:04:20.599 --> 01:04:26.960
him and Miles Miles Murphy went back
to back. But I think we did

768
01:04:27.039 --> 01:04:30.639
okay. I look at anybody,
anybody, as long as you're not the

769
01:04:30.719 --> 01:04:34.880
Vikings, you're fine because no good
no, and we usually draft Well,

770
01:04:34.960 --> 01:04:38.239
I don't know what was going on. Maybe I hope I'm wrong. I

771
01:04:38.280 --> 01:04:42.119
hope I'm one hundred percent wrong.
Well I'm not feeling real confident. We

772
01:04:42.159 --> 01:04:45.400
didn't have a second round pick either, so right, right, yeah,

773
01:04:45.559 --> 01:04:49.920
but you look at it though,
even for the forum, Bryce, Bryce

774
01:04:50.000 --> 01:04:57.079
Young and CJ. How many times
are these top level, top pick quarterbacks

775
01:04:57.480 --> 01:05:02.159
end up being sensational it It really
doesn't happen a lot. I know,

776
01:05:02.239 --> 01:05:06.360
Andrew Luck, you know recent well, I mean it's okay, there's one

777
01:05:09.079 --> 01:05:13.079
right, so well, I mean
it just you know trying. Yeah,

778
01:05:13.119 --> 01:05:15.480
we all remember that disaster, right, right, And I think that I

779
01:05:15.559 --> 01:05:19.599
think the percentage of NFL quarterbacks that
are dropped in the first round that start

780
01:05:19.719 --> 01:05:21.880
for I can't remember how long they
had to start for. I think it

781
01:05:21.880 --> 01:05:26.360
was at least two seasons. It's
about it's about fifty percent, it's forty

782
01:05:26.400 --> 01:05:30.000
five percent or something. So but
yeah, no, I feel what you're

783
01:05:30.000 --> 01:05:32.800
saying. And when you get into
a lineman and certain other positions, it's

784
01:05:32.840 --> 01:05:38.559
easier maybe to pick a winner.
But still yeah, usually tight ends are

785
01:05:38.559 --> 01:05:41.480
helpful too. There. They have
a pretty good version rate, so I

786
01:05:41.519 --> 01:05:44.440
should get one of those. They
all right? Anyway, man, let's

787
01:05:44.679 --> 01:05:47.800
were some some weather and let's do
better this weekend, because it was a

788
01:05:47.800 --> 01:05:53.159
little of it. It was the
payoffs this week of a beautiful week.

789
01:05:53.199 --> 01:05:56.159
A little windy today at times with
a few clouds of the wise sunny met

790
01:05:56.239 --> 01:06:00.480
upper sixties chili night met upper forties
or in the mid upper sixties again Tomorrow

791
01:06:00.519 --> 01:06:02.880
and Wednesday. It's still gonna be
breezy at times, especially the next few

792
01:06:02.920 --> 01:06:06.559
afternoons. I think we'll get closer
to seventy late week with more sunshine.

793
01:06:06.559 --> 01:06:11.440
And if I went as far out
as the weekend, we may continue this

794
01:06:11.559 --> 01:06:14.440
stretch of dry weather into the weekend
and might start getting a little warmer.

795
01:06:14.800 --> 01:06:17.480
As temperatures are staying down below normal. We should be about the mid upper

796
01:06:17.559 --> 01:06:21.119
seventies across the region this time of
year, may not get there until the

797
01:06:21.199 --> 01:06:25.079
tail end of the weekend, and
then next week, if I want to

798
01:06:25.079 --> 01:06:28.400
go ahead that far, maybe we'll
start getting a little bit warmer and starting

799
01:06:28.400 --> 01:06:30.599
to feel like, may, oh, okay, thank you sir, appreciate

800
01:06:30.679 --> 01:06:35.280
it. I'll probably pick your brain
on that in an hour, So sure,

801
01:06:35.800 --> 01:06:40.400
all right, thank you, and
coming back, we have a backcrap

802
01:06:40.519 --> 01:06:49.599
crazy story about an FBI training exercise. I guess I just just wait for

803
01:06:49.760 --> 01:06:56.519
it. Also, we will have
to get into I want to load there

804
01:06:56.599 --> 01:07:00.079
we go. We have to get
into a Indian and I think they're call

805
01:07:00.119 --> 01:07:05.679
him councilman, but they're technically it's
a county representative. For anyway, he

806
01:07:05.960 --> 01:07:11.000
is going. He's going straight serious
on this thing, and to the point

807
01:07:11.079 --> 01:07:14.760
where the local news is having to
take him seriously and the audio is hilarious.

808
01:07:15.159 --> 01:07:17.239
So those stories are much more coming
your way here on the case O

809
01:07:17.360 --> 01:07:23.960
Day Radio program one oh six one
FM Talk and ninety four five w PTI

810
01:07:24.400 --> 01:07:29.920
two stations driving the best in talk. This is case O Day and Carolina's

811
01:07:30.039 --> 01:07:41.320
Morning News. All right, let's
go and get into this insanity. Ryan

812
01:07:41.400 --> 01:07:48.440
Webb is this guy's name. He's
an Indiana GOP councilman representing Delaware County,

813
01:07:48.480 --> 01:07:56.360
Indiana and UM. He made an
announcement post on social media and people got

814
01:07:56.880 --> 01:08:02.639
big mad, big mad. The
problem was sticking with it. And it's

815
01:08:02.639 --> 01:08:08.440
to the point too where the rules
are who gets to be the arbiter of

816
01:08:08.480 --> 01:08:14.440
whether that individual is doing this for
serious reasons or not? And so watching

817
01:08:14.519 --> 01:08:18.239
the local news then have to go
through the machinations of you know, respecting

818
01:08:18.399 --> 01:08:24.760
his decision and yes, I'm getting
the pronouns correct. As you'll come to

819
01:08:24.840 --> 01:08:30.640
find out, is it's very very
interesting here is by the way, just

820
01:08:30.840 --> 01:08:33.840
a little of that kind of councilman
is coming out as a transgender, As

821
01:08:33.920 --> 01:08:40.520
transgender and a woman of color,
Delaware County Councilman Ryan Webb announced that he

822
01:08:40.600 --> 01:08:45.560
now identifies as an Indian American woman. Since that announcement, he's received some

823
01:08:45.680 --> 01:08:48.359
support, but a lot of backlash, many calling him childish, despicable,

824
01:08:48.479 --> 01:08:54.039
even calling for things like execution.
In a statement Webb gave to it eight.

825
01:08:54.119 --> 01:08:58.039
He says, quote, it is
unfortunate that I cannot simply be given

826
01:08:58.119 --> 01:09:02.000
the same space and respect to explore
my identity that so many of those targeting

827
01:09:02.079 --> 01:09:06.800
me demand for themselves. It's possible
I may change my mind down the road.

828
01:09:08.239 --> 01:09:12.840
The process of identity exploration is complex, and oftentimes at the end of

829
01:09:12.920 --> 01:09:16.760
our personal journey we end right back
where we started. What goes on to

830
01:09:16.840 --> 01:09:21.199
tell I tmmate this is just his
true, authentic self. By the way,

831
01:09:21.279 --> 01:09:25.159
his statements I read his whole statements
and there's been several of them,

832
01:09:25.199 --> 01:09:29.960
are on point in the sense that
he's not alluding to this as a joke.

833
01:09:30.119 --> 01:09:33.640
He's only alluding to literally the language. It mirrors statements that you've seen

834
01:09:34.319 --> 01:09:42.399
from people like what is Elliot Page? Right? Formerly Ellen Page the actors

835
01:09:43.159 --> 01:09:49.199
now Elliott Page, the actor statements
from several of the what was it Sam

836
01:09:49.319 --> 01:09:55.319
Smith? You know some of these
musicians that have and idiots. One there

837
01:09:56.800 --> 01:10:03.159
and says that while he does identify
as a woman of color, he will

838
01:10:03.239 --> 01:10:09.159
retain the he him pronouns, and
as you can imagine, people just lost

839
01:10:09.199 --> 01:10:12.960
their crap. Man. To clarify, he says, I never claimed to

840
01:10:13.000 --> 01:10:16.119
be trans anything I am simply expressing
my own gender identity. I'm being dead

841
01:10:16.199 --> 01:10:19.439
serious. It's not a joke.
I said what I said. I don't

842
01:10:19.520 --> 01:10:23.560
know what to tell you. You
don't get to question me. You don't

843
01:10:23.560 --> 01:10:27.840
get to require proof. You were
part of the movement that established these rules

844
01:10:27.880 --> 01:10:30.680
and set the bar. You don't
get to come in later when someone else

845
01:10:30.800 --> 01:10:34.039
joins the club that you don't want
in. You do not get to question

846
01:10:34.199 --> 01:10:43.439
how I identify. So that sets
folks off there in Indiana. If you

847
01:10:43.520 --> 01:10:47.239
were serious, i'd seeing his praises
said they transgender female identified as Charlie's Jamison.

848
01:10:47.359 --> 01:10:51.439
But instead I know better we all
do. This is not something transgender

849
01:10:51.520 --> 01:10:59.199
people do to one another. He
is purposely, purposely mocking us. Well,

850
01:10:59.520 --> 01:11:03.479
tell me what the litmus test is? Well, that's right, there

851
01:11:03.640 --> 01:11:53.840
isn't one. Remember at morning,
everybody, seven hour number three casey Okay

852
01:11:54.000 --> 01:11:59.239
radio program, glad to have you
a long it's a busy Monday. Bots

853
01:11:59.279 --> 01:12:01.239
to get into in a rapid fire
here in the final hour, and I

854
01:12:01.279 --> 01:12:09.359
want to kick it off with this. I want you to imagine you're had

855
01:12:09.359 --> 01:12:16.319
a long day at work, You're
on the road doing some traveling, settling

856
01:12:16.399 --> 01:12:24.840
into a nice, RESTful, blissful, relaxing sleep at your hotel when all

857
01:12:24.840 --> 01:12:28.640
of a sudden, somebody starts pounding
on the door. You go, you

858
01:12:28.760 --> 01:12:34.760
look out and you see you see
people with credentials right say, they're from

859
01:12:34.800 --> 01:12:45.800
the FBI and also the US military
in this case, special operators. You

860
01:12:45.920 --> 01:12:49.439
open the door to see what it
is that they want, and they immediately

861
01:12:49.600 --> 01:12:56.880
shove their way inside of the room, slam you down, throw you in

862
01:12:57.000 --> 01:13:00.840
cuffs, and start an interrogation.
And they put you in the shower too,

863
01:13:01.199 --> 01:13:08.920
and they started interrogating you. And
they're interrogating you because you are a

864
01:13:09.119 --> 01:13:16.119
person of interest in whatever this this
cases they're trying to crack, except you're

865
01:13:16.199 --> 01:13:21.760
not and it's not a real case, and it's part of a training exercise.

866
01:13:23.359 --> 01:13:26.000
It's not one that you're involved with. You just happened to be the

867
01:13:26.039 --> 01:13:29.960
poor bastard who's in the room that
they mistakenly went into thinking that they were

868
01:13:30.000 --> 01:13:32.720
going to another room. And that
would be the story of what transpired in

869
01:13:33.600 --> 01:13:41.319
Boston at the Revere Hotel, because
you know Boston where horribleness happens. Here

870
01:13:41.520 --> 01:13:45.840
is some of the cover the Ree
Hotels to help the pilots, had people

871
01:13:45.920 --> 01:13:50.880
claiming to be FBI agents room and
handcuffed them into the bathroom. It played

872
01:13:50.920 --> 01:13:56.479
out like a scene out of a
movie. FBI agents working with the Department

873
01:13:56.520 --> 01:14:00.479
of Defense barged into a room on
the fifteenth floor. Inside was a sleeping

874
01:14:00.600 --> 01:14:05.279
Delta Airlines pilot who was a guest
at the hotel. He opened the door,

875
01:14:05.560 --> 01:14:11.600
and sources say agents barged in,
handcuffed and interrogated the pilot for more

876
01:14:11.680 --> 01:14:15.479
than forty five minutes and put him
in the shower. Nearly an hour later,

877
01:14:15.800 --> 01:14:20.159
sources say they realized their mistake,
took the cuffs off and released him.

878
01:14:20.720 --> 01:14:26.800
Well, actually they did one more
thing after this hour of interrogating him,

879
01:14:26.920 --> 01:14:29.960
being forceful with them, scaring the
crap out of him. Undoubtedly,

880
01:14:30.039 --> 01:14:35.119
they released him and then they told
him that under penalty of law, he

881
01:14:35.359 --> 01:14:39.199
was not allowed to talk about it. In fact, when the news agency

882
01:14:39.279 --> 01:14:43.279
reached out to talk to him,
he had he no commented them because he

883
01:14:43.439 --> 01:14:47.520
was threatened by the very same entities
who didn't get this right, that if

884
01:14:47.560 --> 01:14:54.279
he said anything about their massive blunder, that he could himself be in trouble,

885
01:14:54.359 --> 01:14:59.439
so he wouldn't comment. When they
went and did the story, the

886
01:14:59.640 --> 01:15:08.800
stuff the whole thing is backcrap,
crazy man. And yet it went for

887
01:15:09.039 --> 01:15:11.840
quite a while before anyone was able
to dig in and figure out what the

888
01:15:11.920 --> 01:15:14.720
hell was going on. Now,
I under let me let me say this

889
01:15:15.000 --> 01:15:16.039
because a lot of people are like, well, why would they be running

890
01:15:16.079 --> 01:15:20.680
a training exercise in this Well,
you you still have to train agents to

891
01:15:20.800 --> 01:15:25.479
do stuff, and yes, you
can do it in a setting where you

892
01:15:25.560 --> 01:15:29.000
know, like those artificial cities where
you see, like where they go to

893
01:15:30.479 --> 01:15:33.479
run drills to learn how to you
know, clear areas where maybe there's a

894
01:15:33.560 --> 01:15:41.560
hostage situation going on, they're using
either non live fire or they're using live

895
01:15:41.680 --> 01:15:46.279
fire and shootouse situations so where the
walls make sure that rounds don't pass through.

896
01:15:46.920 --> 01:15:49.960
I get all of that, but
you know, really being in an

897
01:15:50.079 --> 01:15:55.039
environment where you have all of the
people around you, you have the normal

898
01:15:55.159 --> 01:15:58.520
comings and goings of hotel guests,
You're trying to operate in a way that

899
01:15:58.640 --> 01:16:02.199
doesn't get you noticed. I understand
why you'd want to trade for that.

900
01:16:02.399 --> 01:16:09.640
I've mentioned here on the show that
I participated actually in a training exercise for

901
01:16:09.920 --> 01:16:15.600
somebody in this area who does training
contractual training as part of US military stuff.

902
01:16:16.079 --> 01:16:20.920
Basically they're training bodyguard people for well, I'll just say that they're training

903
01:16:21.000 --> 01:16:28.199
people who in a military capacity really
act as bodyguards. And they asked me,

904
01:16:28.359 --> 01:16:31.760
Hey, do you want to be
the muckety muck? And I did,

905
01:16:32.039 --> 01:16:38.000
and I was asked to go to
a standard office building in the Raleigh

906
01:16:38.039 --> 01:16:43.079
area waited in the conference room like
I'm in a meeting or I was eating

907
01:16:43.159 --> 01:16:46.479
lunch is what I was doing in
there, And then the guys came in

908
01:16:46.840 --> 01:16:50.880
and they extracted me. There was
a threat we needed to get out of

909
01:16:50.920 --> 01:16:55.439
there, and it was a scenario
where they were having to figure out how

910
01:16:55.479 --> 01:17:00.560
to get me out of this building
where people were coming to do me harm

911
01:17:00.680 --> 01:17:03.079
or whatever it was. I don't
remember the exact scenario, and I thought

912
01:17:03.119 --> 01:17:08.479
it was just the coolest damn thing
ever. But that's a real world situation

913
01:17:08.600 --> 01:17:12.039
that they may have to deal with. So I understand that the good news

914
01:17:12.239 --> 01:17:17.119
is they came to the right conference
room and they moved me instead of going

915
01:17:17.199 --> 01:17:20.399
to one of the other floors.
And this is I think a ten or

916
01:17:20.439 --> 01:17:27.039
twelve floor office building that's very busy
in Raleigh, and you know, pulling

917
01:17:27.119 --> 01:17:29.359
some other guy who's just trying to
eat lunch in a break room, it

918
01:17:29.399 --> 01:17:31.680
doesn't know what the hell is going
on. So in this case, it

919
01:17:31.800 --> 01:17:36.359
was FBI agents out of the Boston
office as well as Army Special Ops units

920
01:17:36.359 --> 01:17:41.279
who were conducting this exercise. They
went to the wrong room, grabbed the

921
01:17:41.319 --> 01:17:45.159
guy, then told me could never
speak about what happened, and when it

922
01:17:45.239 --> 01:17:49.920
finally did become public, basically they're
like, whoops, are bad? Whoops

923
01:17:49.920 --> 01:17:55.760
a daisy. So I don't know. I'd be interested to learn exactly how

924
01:17:55.840 --> 01:18:00.239
forcefully they handled this guy, and
frankly as part of a training exercise too,

925
01:18:00.399 --> 01:18:05.159
I don't I guess there's a certain
interrogation level, so like when the

926
01:18:05.239 --> 01:18:08.760
guy's telling them, I have no
idea what this is? Who? Who

927
01:18:09.159 --> 01:18:13.199
are you? None of this makes
sense. I guess maybe that would be

928
01:18:13.319 --> 01:18:17.119
part of what they would have expected, so it wouldn't have raised red flags.

929
01:18:18.520 --> 01:18:20.840
I don't know. But for people
who are just like ah, they

930
01:18:20.880 --> 01:18:24.520
shouldn't be able to you know,
they shouldn't be doing any of this in

931
01:18:24.560 --> 01:18:27.720
a real world environment. My question
is, I wonder if the hotel knew

932
01:18:30.880 --> 01:18:33.199
that's crazy man? All right?
Eight eight eight nine three four seven eight

933
01:18:33.319 --> 01:18:38.079
seven four. So I look the
screw ups, the screw up. And

934
01:18:38.119 --> 01:18:41.439
I don't know how that happens right
there, Like, how do you not

935
01:18:41.560 --> 01:18:45.720
have somebody monitoring this? Right?
How do you not have a person who

936
01:18:45.840 --> 01:18:48.560
ultimately is sitting there and just visually
monitoring and then sees, hey, they

937
01:18:48.640 --> 01:18:51.640
got off the fifteenth floor and they
should have got off with the thirteenth floor,

938
01:18:51.720 --> 01:18:58.680
and and you know, stops in
to stop this. That's the part

939
01:18:58.760 --> 01:19:03.680
that I can't wrap my head around. But just grabbing some poor Delta pilot

940
01:19:04.279 --> 01:19:10.359
just yeah, he's probably probably work
the red eyes, burning through it and

941
01:19:10.439 --> 01:19:12.640
just trying to get some sleep where
he's got to go back to work.

942
01:19:13.399 --> 01:19:18.840
And now you're in a shower in
handcuffs with four guys interrogating you for an

943
01:19:18.880 --> 01:19:27.119
hour? All right? Eight eight
eight nine three four seven eight seventy four.

944
01:19:27.199 --> 01:19:30.000
You want to comment on that?
And I know some of you guys

945
01:19:30.479 --> 01:19:34.399
down here, especially some of the
folks in and around here, just because

946
01:19:34.439 --> 01:19:39.359
we have all the military bases and
whatnot, you know, training stuff and

947
01:19:39.680 --> 01:19:44.640
contracting to private entities, many of
which are former military guys, is not

948
01:19:44.760 --> 01:19:48.760
that uncommon. The FBI twist in
this Boston story is a little bit different.

949
01:19:48.840 --> 01:19:53.800
But now I know that stuff happens, and I understand why it happens.

950
01:19:54.600 --> 01:20:00.720
There's certain there's certain jobs and things
out there where experience from other individuals

951
01:20:00.960 --> 01:20:05.600
is being passed down and it's necessary
to perform whatever those duties are, especially

952
01:20:05.640 --> 01:20:12.319
if it's highly specialized. So it's
not uncommon, but it is pretty creepy

953
01:20:12.359 --> 01:20:14.920
that you could just be sitting there
trying to sleep and then this happens.

954
01:20:15.520 --> 01:20:18.560
And the certain liability perhaps on the
part of the hotel if they were knowledgeable

955
01:20:18.600 --> 01:20:23.920
in allowing this to happen. But
it sounds like dude didn't want to answer

956
01:20:23.920 --> 01:20:28.960
any questions and that might be because
they threatened him about it, which then

957
01:20:29.039 --> 01:20:31.199
I have a huge problem with that, all right, So we got that

958
01:20:31.359 --> 01:20:36.000
portion of it. Also, bud
Light is so screwed man. They had

959
01:20:36.039 --> 01:20:41.960
a window where they probably could have
done something, and I think I've mentioned,

960
01:20:42.039 --> 01:20:45.760
but I'll mention it again how they
should have handled this, but instead

961
01:20:45.920 --> 01:20:54.119
they didn't. They dug in and
over the weekend that wiggle room has evaporated.

962
01:20:54.279 --> 01:20:58.600
I'll share what happened and what we
could see going forward on that story

963
01:20:59.039 --> 01:21:09.119
in just a moment or on the
case O Day radio program, Your Day

964
01:21:09.680 --> 01:21:15.319
Smarter and celebrating ten years and keeping
you better informed one oh six one FM

965
01:21:15.399 --> 01:21:27.359
Talk and News Talk nine four five
WPTI more with Casey starts now all right

966
01:21:27.640 --> 01:21:31.520
twenty one body Radio program. Let's
have a quick phone call and then a

967
01:21:31.640 --> 01:21:36.880
few things get into Monica. What's
up, Hi, How are you doing?

968
01:21:38.359 --> 01:21:44.680
I'm good. So I'd like to
touch on that with the Delta Airline

969
01:21:44.720 --> 01:21:48.560
pilot. I'd first like to say
I I feel really bad for him because

970
01:21:48.960 --> 01:21:55.920
they're there to sleep and they need
that sleep before they catch that next airplane.

971
01:21:56.119 --> 01:21:59.760
I lived with a pilot for seventeen
years, so I've heard all those

972
01:22:00.039 --> 01:22:02.439
our stories where they don't get sleep
and then have to take a flight.

973
01:22:02.520 --> 01:22:05.520
A lot of times they have to
call out because of that. Right,

974
01:22:08.199 --> 01:22:14.199
But I'm thinking that connecting dots here, we're seeing a lot more of that,

975
01:22:14.399 --> 01:22:15.960
and I think we're going to see
a lot lot more of that because

976
01:22:15.960 --> 01:22:24.079
I think that in the training process
they're now focus more on progressive agenda hires

977
01:22:24.319 --> 01:22:30.199
versus copper education and training. We're
seeing that across the board with police,

978
01:22:30.279 --> 01:22:35.000
teachers, military, all the dot
gov everything, And I think it goes

979
01:22:35.039 --> 01:22:38.960
back to what I was saying about
the police and the men on the ground.

980
01:22:39.640 --> 01:22:45.600
When your leaders are more focused on
the progressive agenda stuff, the life

981
01:22:45.720 --> 01:22:49.479
or death training that's needed, it
gets lost in the shovel well. And

982
01:22:50.439 --> 01:22:56.039
you know, as far as the
actual training exercise, it doesn't necessarily sound

983
01:22:56.159 --> 01:22:59.640
like the guys on the ground,
so to speak, got it wrong.

984
01:22:59.720 --> 01:23:02.720
Maybe they extracted all sorts of infotes. Whoever, either they got it wrong

985
01:23:02.800 --> 01:23:06.199
and they went to or the information
they were provided was bad, and then

986
01:23:06.239 --> 01:23:10.560
it speaks to a problem up the
food chain. But somebody screwed up.

987
01:23:11.359 --> 01:23:14.600
Somebody screwed up, right, and
we're going to see rooms I don't know,

988
01:23:15.119 --> 01:23:18.560
Yeah, we'll see more of those
screw ups because the focus isn't on

989
01:23:18.760 --> 01:23:23.279
the training that they used to receive. They're spending you know, you have

990
01:23:24.199 --> 01:23:28.119
says for example, you have ten
hours for training. More and more of

991
01:23:28.159 --> 01:23:34.079
those hours are getting eaten up by
the progressive agenda training and they're not focused

992
01:23:34.119 --> 01:23:36.800
on what they used to be.
You're seeing the same thing in education,

993
01:23:38.399 --> 01:23:43.239
our mass scores and English scores,
everything across the border dropping while all this

994
01:23:43.439 --> 01:23:49.600
progressive agenda gets You don't want to
miss gender a terrorist monica, So right

995
01:23:49.880 --> 01:23:54.640
right, that's important. Also,
I agree, all right, thank you

996
01:23:54.720 --> 01:23:58.880
for the call. Appreciate it,
have a good one. Can you imagine

997
01:23:59.520 --> 01:24:02.640
right, the bomb there's a bomb
somewhere in the DC area and they don't

998
01:24:02.680 --> 01:24:05.039
know where, but they got a
lead on one of the guys who may

999
01:24:05.119 --> 01:24:10.159
know, and they got him in
there and he's handcuffed to a pipe in

1000
01:24:10.239 --> 01:24:12.680
the bathroom. Tell us where it
is, sir, tell us where,

1001
01:24:13.199 --> 01:24:20.359
sir? Sir? Did you say, sir? Oh, I thought I

1002
01:24:20.439 --> 01:24:24.600
had the man drop. Sorry,
got all excited. Way I do have

1003
01:24:24.680 --> 01:24:28.800
it somewhere. Yeah, we're all
gonna wait for me because I was ill

1004
01:24:28.880 --> 01:24:31.520
prepared. Oh whatever, you get
the gist of it. So, um,

1005
01:24:31.960 --> 01:24:34.319
I don't know. Somebody screwed up. And it's not like government hasn't

1006
01:24:34.319 --> 01:24:40.520
screwed up before. I mean,
let's face it bad, whether it's bad

1007
01:24:40.600 --> 01:24:44.640
info, bad intel, acting in
ways that have been problematic, especially at

1008
01:24:44.640 --> 01:24:48.760
an FBI level, Ruby Ridge,
uh, the Waco, Texas. I

1009
01:24:48.840 --> 01:24:51.359
mean, we have those examples out
there, and you hope that you then

1010
01:24:51.520 --> 01:25:00.079
learn from that and go forward.
But you know, ultimately, U the

1011
01:25:00.600 --> 01:25:02.600
way in which they operate and some
of the questions that are out there.

1012
01:25:02.640 --> 01:25:06.520
Did you see the the Wall Street
Journal story over the weekend or they're getting

1013
01:25:06.520 --> 01:25:11.560
to look at Epstein's calendar. This
is post conviction the first time, right

1014
01:25:12.239 --> 01:25:15.960
where he was convicted of this stuff, and the CI, the current CI

1015
01:25:15.079 --> 01:25:26.039
director met with him what and he's
and the statement was they did he didn't

1016
01:25:26.079 --> 01:25:30.039
know any of that. You're the
CIA director. I just assume you know

1017
01:25:30.199 --> 01:25:34.079
stuff, or you have people who
know stuff. Former White House Council under

1018
01:25:34.119 --> 01:25:39.640
Barack Obama met with him, Norm
Chomsky. I mean it was now,

1019
01:25:39.840 --> 01:25:45.239
it doesn't necessarily mean that anyone who
came within the periphery of this guy was,

1020
01:25:46.439 --> 01:25:49.039
you know, in on anything he
was doing, or really even knew

1021
01:25:49.079 --> 01:25:54.000
about it. In all instances,
I think if Jeffrey Epstein had walked up

1022
01:25:54.039 --> 01:25:58.039
on the street to most people prior
to uh, you know, the stories

1023
01:25:58.079 --> 01:26:00.000
that came out that eventually led to
his last to rest where he then went

1024
01:26:00.039 --> 01:26:06.039
into prison and suicide in himself I
made air quotes, probably wouldn't know who

1025
01:26:06.159 --> 01:26:12.680
that was, wouldn't have any idea. That being said, it shows you

1026
01:26:12.880 --> 01:26:19.279
how connected this dude was, because
like the reasoning given is like these these

1027
01:26:19.479 --> 01:26:25.840
real high ranking officials felt that meeting
with Epstein would be helpful in because they

1028
01:26:25.920 --> 01:26:30.439
give a reason why this happened.
You know why the meeting took place to

1029
01:26:30.680 --> 01:26:34.960
help them transition to the private sector. Well, what special expertise does Jeffrey

1030
01:26:35.000 --> 01:26:43.359
Epstein have and helping a twenty year
government individual transition of the private sector doesn't

1031
01:26:43.399 --> 01:26:48.439
make any sense. But in the
sense that these are the circles that he

1032
01:26:48.560 --> 01:26:56.319
ran in, it lets you know
that there's a whole lot more than as

1033
01:26:56.399 --> 01:26:59.159
being led on here. And I
don't I need to go down this rabbit

1034
01:26:59.239 --> 01:27:01.680
hole right now because I got two
minutes left in this segment. But it

1035
01:27:01.960 --> 01:27:08.720
was a it was a significant who's
who as all of this stuff was being

1036
01:27:08.800 --> 01:27:15.960
moved forward. Yeah, Norm Chomsky
Kissinger consultant, get a Rothchild in there,

1037
01:27:15.039 --> 01:27:19.640
just so people can get their their
YouTube conspiracy videos all dusted up.

1038
01:27:19.680 --> 01:27:25.119
And William Burns from the CIA's his
name, and the list goes on and

1039
01:27:25.239 --> 01:27:30.800
on. Man top women in finance. Just craziness. Just shows you.

1040
01:27:30.840 --> 01:27:38.960
It just shows you these these circles
that these folks run in. And then

1041
01:27:39.239 --> 01:27:42.199
you know they play fight on the
fringes, calling out, you know,

1042
01:27:42.640 --> 01:27:45.840
being critical of this policy and that's
a horrible person. And yet they'll eat

1043
01:27:45.920 --> 01:27:49.600
together, they'll laugh it off because
ultimately at the end of the day,

1044
01:27:49.640 --> 01:27:55.680
it feels like the only enemy is
you and accountability. And I think that's

1045
01:27:55.720 --> 01:28:00.119
what really chaps people when it comes
to most of Washington and the elite to

1046
01:28:00.239 --> 01:28:04.720
the power structure in this country.
I mean, it's it's it is crazy

1047
01:28:04.800 --> 01:28:10.239
to me. And I think it
was evidence so well, and I know

1048
01:28:10.359 --> 01:28:13.840
we trashed on them, but one
of the last great Saturday Night live skits,

1049
01:28:13.920 --> 01:28:17.840
which was when Tom Hanks was on
Black Jeopardy, because what you kept

1050
01:28:17.880 --> 01:28:21.399
seeing is you kept seeing a shared
experience that well, they maybe didn't share

1051
01:28:21.439 --> 01:28:26.319
it together. There were a lot
of there was a lot of overlap among

1052
01:28:26.760 --> 01:28:32.279
Tom Hanks, who was a socioeconomically
challenged redneck, and Black Jeopardy participants who

1053
01:28:32.359 --> 01:28:45.479
themselves socioeconomically were just as paranoid and
conspiratorial as Tom Hanks was celebrating ten years

1054
01:28:45.560 --> 01:28:50.920
of keeping you connected. This is
ninety four five WPTI and the Triad and

1055
01:28:51.119 --> 01:29:00.399
one oh six one FM Talk in
the Triangle. All right, welcome back,

1056
01:29:00.439 --> 01:29:04.279
eight thirty six. You're on the
case O Day radio program. Do

1057
01:29:04.319 --> 01:29:13.840
you remember the artwork I'm making air
quotes again by Morazzo Catalan. I'm missprene.

1058
01:29:13.880 --> 01:29:19.159
I'm sure I'm butchering the name here
the art the art installation and piece

1059
01:29:19.279 --> 01:29:27.439
known as Comedian, which sold for
one hundred and twenty thousand dollars after it

1060
01:29:27.520 --> 01:29:32.960
was unveiled in twenty nineteen, which
was on display in South Korea at the

1061
01:29:33.439 --> 01:29:44.319
Liam Museum of Art. It was
a banana duct tape tool wall art.

1062
01:29:45.600 --> 01:29:50.880
Well over the weekend, somebody grabbed
the banana and ate it. And I

1063
01:29:50.960 --> 01:29:56.119
know what you're thinking. You're thinking, Casey, if the thing is twenty

1064
01:29:56.239 --> 01:30:00.079
nineteen, that banana's got to be
the part of it. They replaced the

1065
01:30:00.159 --> 01:30:05.880
banana every two or three days,
but they would then destroy the one banana.

1066
01:30:05.920 --> 01:30:10.319
They wouldn't you, they wouldn't make
it available. Somebody had asked about

1067
01:30:10.359 --> 01:30:13.319
it, but the point of it
was you couldn't. So somebody just rolled

1068
01:30:13.399 --> 01:30:16.000
in, took the banana off the
wall, ate the banana, and then

1069
01:30:16.039 --> 01:30:21.119
tape the banana peel back to the
wall because quote, he was hungry.

1070
01:30:23.119 --> 01:30:26.520
So there was no uh, save
the planet message or any of that.

1071
01:30:26.640 --> 01:30:29.000
By the way, I didn't realize
this. One of the people arrested up

1072
01:30:29.000 --> 01:30:34.840
at the Museum of National Art up
in DC is actually a eco terrorist moonbat

1073
01:30:35.000 --> 01:30:44.119
from from Raleigh so I'm glad we
had that connection. You know. Um,

1074
01:30:45.920 --> 01:30:47.319
Ross, you ever driven to DC, flown to DC, traveled to

1075
01:30:47.439 --> 01:30:54.520
DC? Yes? I have?
Did you walk or I've driven? You

1076
01:30:54.680 --> 01:30:57.520
drove? Oh wow, I drove
it through it a few times? Oh

1077
01:30:57.560 --> 01:31:02.600
okay. Um the the thing you
drove was it a vehicle to burn fuel?

1078
01:31:03.399 --> 01:31:06.640
It was? Yes, it was? Oh wow. Okay, So

1079
01:31:06.760 --> 01:31:13.199
you would say that from a carbon
stay carbon footprint? Uh, there was.

1080
01:31:13.600 --> 01:31:16.600
There was a minor carbon footprint with
your travels there. Huh yeah it

1081
01:31:16.760 --> 01:31:20.600
was a HEMI oh oh wow,
it was a HEMI wow. There you

1082
01:31:20.720 --> 01:31:27.239
go. So you so you live
in uh, you live in Raleigh.

1083
01:31:27.239 --> 01:31:29.399
You know, we have an art
museum here. I'm not encouraging you go

1084
01:31:29.560 --> 01:31:33.600
do anything, but UM got lots
of museums because you know, it's Raleigh

1085
01:31:33.680 --> 01:31:39.880
capital city, so you know.
But instead you went up to DC,

1086
01:31:40.199 --> 01:31:44.000
traveled up there, and I don't
I don't think you probably walked. So

1087
01:31:44.680 --> 01:31:49.159
it's pretty weird for that concern that
you would utilize the fossil fuels to go

1088
01:31:49.239 --> 01:31:51.039
up there. But he would,
They would say, I guess it will

1089
01:31:51.079 --> 01:31:57.399
it outweighs because it's about sending a
message. Okay, all right, whatever

1090
01:31:57.640 --> 01:32:00.479
but in this case, no message. Just message was that somebody was hungry

1091
01:32:00.479 --> 01:32:08.119
and they saw a banana. The
art museum says that they have replaced the

1092
01:32:08.159 --> 01:32:11.600
banana and all as well. And
you continue to come pay eight dollars to

1093
01:32:12.399 --> 01:32:15.439
stare at a banana tape to a
wall, or you could just tape a

1094
01:32:15.479 --> 01:32:18.239
banana to your wall at home,
I guess. And now you're an artiste.

1095
01:32:18.600 --> 01:32:24.520
So congrats to congrats to you in
your new artistic endeavors. Hey,

1096
01:32:24.560 --> 01:32:29.479
remember when they said that banning gas
stoves, that was a Republican conspiracy,

1097
01:32:29.520 --> 01:32:33.359
And by the way, they would
never do that because one it really it's

1098
01:32:33.399 --> 01:32:39.760
stupid, would be ineffective anyway,
and it was just fearmongering and pouncing and

1099
01:32:39.920 --> 01:32:45.840
seizing on the part of Republicans.
Well, Governor Kathy Hokel or Hackel or

1100
01:32:45.920 --> 01:32:50.640
Hotchel or however you pronounce her name
up there in New York announced that a

1101
01:32:50.800 --> 01:32:56.720
budget deal that had been reached would
also because obviously you put this in the

1102
01:32:56.800 --> 01:33:04.880
budget, prohibit gas hookups in new
apartments. Existing buildings, and current gas

1103
01:33:04.920 --> 01:33:08.960
stoves would not be affected. However, in the state of New York,

1104
01:33:09.119 --> 01:33:13.760
if you are to build new buildings, part of the building code would not

1105
01:33:13.920 --> 01:33:19.920
allow gas hookups in the buildings.
I don't know that sounds like a pretty

1106
01:33:19.920 --> 01:33:26.840
effective way to go ahead and ban
gas stoves short of somebody I guess working

1107
01:33:26.880 --> 01:33:30.039
with you know, propane cylinders,
I guess if they want to. But

1108
01:33:30.760 --> 01:33:34.199
if you build buildings, so you
build a new apartment building up in New

1109
01:33:34.239 --> 01:33:38.520
York or whatever, and you can't
put gas hookups in there, then you've

1110
01:33:38.560 --> 01:33:43.960
effectively banned gas stoves, and even
more than that, gas water heaters and

1111
01:33:44.119 --> 01:33:47.840
any other gas appliances that may exist. So the irony, of course,

1112
01:33:48.039 --> 01:33:51.560
is the very same media who wanted
to say that, you know, people

1113
01:33:51.640 --> 01:33:59.000
bringing this up or being conspiratorial and
fearmongering and just crazy, and also adding

1114
01:33:59.079 --> 01:34:02.079
that they wouldn't do it because it
really, from an eco standpoint, wouldn't

1115
01:34:02.119 --> 01:34:10.319
be really a difference maker, are
now having to pivot immediately and argue that,

1116
01:34:10.520 --> 01:34:15.319
well, you know, this is
for the environment. I want everyone

1117
01:34:15.359 --> 01:34:19.560
to be safe, and they're just
gonna jam it in a budget up there.

1118
01:34:19.800 --> 01:34:23.880
I'm telling you, I understand why
so many of you all moved down

1119
01:34:24.000 --> 01:34:30.960
from New York. I get it, but you know, it's just keep

1120
01:34:31.039 --> 01:34:34.359
in mind, this is the reason
you moved, right, the reason a

1121
01:34:34.439 --> 01:34:41.520
lot of people moved. At the
federal level of Biden administration considering a propose

1122
01:34:41.720 --> 01:34:46.399
energy efficiency rule that would remove up
to fifty percent of current gas stoves because

1123
01:34:46.520 --> 01:34:51.000
they just wouldn't meet the requirement of
it and or would require a significant purchase

1124
01:34:53.479 --> 01:34:57.960
almost actually would exceed the cost in
many cases of gas stoves of the hood

1125
01:34:58.039 --> 01:35:01.359
that would be necessary. So but
this is how they do it. They

1126
01:35:01.399 --> 01:35:03.319
say, Oh, no, you're
crazy, We're not doing that. We're

1127
01:35:03.399 --> 01:35:06.960
just you know, we're not banning
guns. We're just making bullets a million

1128
01:35:08.039 --> 01:35:13.920
dollars each and everybody knows what you're
up to. And speaking of bullets,

1129
01:35:14.000 --> 01:35:18.800
this horrific story from Texas or a
multi time to illegal immigrants. Somebody who

1130
01:35:18.800 --> 01:35:23.560
had been deported no less than at
least five times, and I think they've

1131
01:35:23.640 --> 01:35:29.000
probably found more, decided that the
noise being emanated from a crime baby required

1132
01:35:29.079 --> 01:35:31.600
him to go and murder five of
his neighbors. So he's here illegally.

1133
01:35:32.439 --> 01:35:38.159
The neighbors, I believe most of
them were in the country illegally, which

1134
01:35:38.399 --> 01:35:41.600
when people point that out, people
are losing their minds over it. But

1135
01:35:42.239 --> 01:35:45.800
it, yeah, I think it's
an important component too, just in the

1136
01:35:45.920 --> 01:35:56.640
sense to show you the continued issues
you have there and the secrecy that needs

1137
01:35:56.720 --> 01:36:00.520
exist within the community because people are
far less likely to seek out police help

1138
01:36:00.880 --> 01:36:06.680
if they are in the country illegally. So you have this escalation of this

1139
01:36:06.840 --> 01:36:15.960
individual who murdered five people allegedly over
a noise disturbance with a baby, and

1140
01:36:15.000 --> 01:36:19.680
in fact, some of the victims
were literally found on top of children that

1141
01:36:19.720 --> 01:36:24.399
they were trying to protect from the
psychopath going through and shooting them one by

1142
01:36:24.439 --> 01:36:29.880
one. And of course the immediate
reaction was to blame the guns. Washington

1143
01:36:29.920 --> 01:36:32.039
Post and others went out and decided
that that was the problem here, not

1144
01:36:32.239 --> 01:36:36.399
a porous border where somebody who is
this violent can continue to come back into

1145
01:36:36.439 --> 01:36:43.439
the country time and time again.
And I saw people going, well,

1146
01:36:43.479 --> 01:36:45.800
what laws. I mean, he
violated all the laws. He illegally acquired

1147
01:36:45.840 --> 01:36:49.000
firearms each and every time he did
that. That was and I saw folks

1148
01:36:49.079 --> 01:36:51.479
going, well, what you need
is you need to get rid of all

1149
01:36:51.520 --> 01:36:56.760
the guns. That's how you actually
do it, Which is the dumbest rebuttal

1150
01:36:56.920 --> 01:36:59.920
to that whole thing that you can
think of, because I would ask you,

1151
01:37:00.479 --> 01:37:02.000
how is government going to be able
to go in and remove all the

1152
01:37:02.079 --> 01:37:08.119
guns. What are they going to
need to do that? Arguably they're going

1153
01:37:08.159 --> 01:37:14.399
to need guns, right are You're
gonna go and you're gonna by force make

1154
01:37:14.479 --> 01:37:18.000
everybody give up their guns. You're
not gonna go. They're unarmed. I

1155
01:37:18.119 --> 01:37:23.600
know a lot of people would comply, but a lot wouldn't saying this is

1156
01:37:23.680 --> 01:37:27.119
constant, constitutionally protected. I know
by the way, all my guns they

1157
01:37:27.159 --> 01:37:32.359
fell into the lake boating accident very
tragic. So it shows that you're not

1158
01:37:32.439 --> 01:37:36.600
against guns. You're against Joe,
you know, the public having guns,

1159
01:37:38.479 --> 01:37:42.159
and so that's the position you have
to defend when in reality you have a

1160
01:37:42.279 --> 01:37:47.239
very tragic story here that where five
people lost their lives regardless of immigration status.

1161
01:37:47.359 --> 01:37:55.119
None of that is deserved. Who
are in a position where they're if

1162
01:37:55.159 --> 01:37:59.239
there had been build up and if
anybody had wanted to intervene in this instance,

1163
01:37:59.279 --> 01:38:03.000
they're going to be let It's likely
to start that ball rolling. But

1164
01:38:03.119 --> 01:38:05.279
no, we got to sit here
and we gotta play all of this game,

1165
01:38:05.479 --> 01:38:09.840
and there is a substantial award.
As he remains on the lamb.

1166
01:38:10.319 --> 01:38:13.880
All right, eight forty five racet
agent from the Weather Channel. It's joining

1167
01:38:14.000 --> 01:38:16.960
us. All right, man,
nowhere to go but up after this weekend's

1168
01:38:17.000 --> 01:38:20.279
weather, so you know, start
the march, yeah, all right,

1169
01:38:20.279 --> 01:38:25.800
and it's gonna be a slow march
right up back into some near normal temperatures,

1170
01:38:25.880 --> 01:38:29.760
which is mid and upper seventies.
That's not coming to maybe the upcoming

1171
01:38:29.800 --> 01:38:32.640
weekend, maybe Friday, but until
then, try what you'll notice though,

1172
01:38:32.720 --> 01:38:36.600
Those temperatures will be in the mid
upper sixties today, Tomorrow and Wednesday,

1173
01:38:38.479 --> 01:38:41.079
and lots of sunshine. You're gonna
have a breeze around, so you'd be

1174
01:38:41.119 --> 01:38:43.439
like, well, it doesn't feel
like sixty seven, or doesn't feel like

1175
01:38:43.520 --> 01:38:45.279
sixty eight, You get the picture. And that wind could gust at times

1176
01:38:45.319 --> 01:38:50.039
twenty five plus miles per hour each
afternoon, so it's gonna feel a little

1177
01:38:50.039 --> 01:38:53.560
bit more like fall. The overnight
lows will be in the forties, and

1178
01:38:53.600 --> 01:38:57.119
then as we get at the Thursday
closer to seventy, Friday will get near

1179
01:38:57.199 --> 01:39:00.560
seventy or above, and we'll have
lots of sunshine, will lose the wind

1180
01:39:00.600 --> 01:39:02.319
too. So Thursday and Friday I
feel a lot better. Should be dry

1181
01:39:02.359 --> 01:39:05.640
over the weekend, lower to middle
seventy. As we see tepatures coming back

1182
01:39:05.680 --> 01:39:09.359
just a little bit more so,
lots of sun this week, Casey,

1183
01:39:09.439 --> 01:39:12.880
a little wind beginning of the week, less wind later and also a little

1184
01:39:12.920 --> 01:39:15.760
bit milder later in the week and
hopefully for the upcoming weekend. All right,

1185
01:39:15.840 --> 01:39:18.119
cool, cool, We'll chat all
right tomorrow, sir, have it

1186
01:39:18.199 --> 01:39:21.720
go on you too? Yep,
We'll come back check in with Jeff Bellinger

1187
01:39:21.760 --> 01:39:35.800
Bloomberg News next show. After the
show is on the iHeartRadio app. Search

1188
01:39:35.960 --> 01:39:42.279
Casey O day for the podcast on
the iHeart radio app. All right,

1189
01:39:42.319 --> 01:39:46.159
good morning, one Bloomberg Up Day. Jeff Bellinger here to join us and

1190
01:39:46.279 --> 01:39:50.159
explain how in one spale swoop they
can go seize the bank and sell it

1191
01:39:50.199 --> 01:39:55.079
to another bank in five seconds.
What's going on with that? It happened

1192
01:39:55.079 --> 01:40:00.279
over the weekend the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation sees the First republic Bank. Efforts

1193
01:40:00.319 --> 01:40:04.359
to rescue the bank just failed.
That couldn't undo all of the damage done

1194
01:40:04.439 --> 01:40:09.800
by the run by depositors, and
the FDIC agreed to sell the assets to

1195
01:40:09.960 --> 01:40:14.119
JP Morgan Chase. Efforts to rescue, as I say it failed, and

1196
01:40:14.279 --> 01:40:18.279
the San Francisco based bank has become
the second largest ever US bank failure.

1197
01:40:18.560 --> 01:40:23.439
The takeover here is an opportunity for
JP morgan chase to get even bigger.

1198
01:40:23.680 --> 01:40:28.000
The government would likely try to block
such a deal under normal circumstances, because

1199
01:40:28.119 --> 01:40:32.640
JP Morgan is already the nation's biggest
bank. A Japanese drug maker struck a

1200
01:40:32.720 --> 01:40:36.079
deal for an American firm and other
a story we're working on this morning.

1201
01:40:36.239 --> 01:40:43.399
Estellas Pharma agreed to acquire Everic Bio
for nearly six billion dollars. Everic makes

1202
01:40:43.439 --> 01:40:47.199
drugs that treat eye problems. It's
developing a treatment for a condition called geographic

1203
01:40:47.279 --> 01:40:53.119
atrophy, which often leads to blindness. Store closing sales are underway now at

1204
01:40:53.399 --> 01:40:58.000
nearly five hundred retail outlets owned by
bed Bath and Beyond. The chain filed

1205
01:40:58.079 --> 01:41:02.079
for bankruptcy last week after struggling for
months to deal with its debt. Bedbeth

1206
01:41:02.159 --> 01:41:05.880
and Beyond plans to close all three
hundred and sixty of its namesake store,

1207
01:41:06.159 --> 01:41:12.680
as well as one hundred twenty Bye
Bye Baby locations. Artificial intelligence will change

1208
01:41:12.720 --> 01:41:15.600
the way many of us work.
The World Economic Forum is predicting that over

1209
01:41:15.680 --> 01:41:19.319
the next five years, nearly a
quarter of all jobs will be altered by

1210
01:41:19.439 --> 01:41:25.640
technology. The green energy transition and
other developments. A lot of clerical jobs

1211
01:41:25.680 --> 01:41:29.920
will be taken over by automation,
but there will be increased demand for tech

1212
01:41:30.039 --> 01:41:34.439
and cyber's security specialists. Stock market
futures are mixed this morning at KC S

1213
01:41:34.520 --> 01:41:39.760
and P futures are down two NASDAC
futures are down eighteen, but the Dow

1214
01:41:39.880 --> 01:41:43.119
futures are pointing higher. They're up
at nine points. It's going to be

1215
01:41:43.199 --> 01:41:47.079
a busy week ahead and it all
starts tomorrow with the Federal Reserve Board meeting.

1216
01:41:47.159 --> 01:41:50.600
We expect another interest great hike.
Casey, So that a question.

1217
01:41:50.680 --> 01:41:55.199
You live in the Greater New York
area, So did you watch the heat

1218
01:41:55.279 --> 01:41:59.239
Knicks playoff game and all this weekend? I did not? Okay, Well,

1219
01:41:59.239 --> 01:42:01.000
they know how they transition from when
they go to break, they go

1220
01:42:01.079 --> 01:42:04.560
to commercial and they'll have that,
you know, they'll wherever they're doing something,

1221
01:42:04.640 --> 01:42:08.079
they generally have a background shot.
So if you're in New York,

1222
01:42:08.199 --> 01:42:11.840
maybe a guy selling hot dogs street
vendor. Right. They call them beauty

1223
01:42:11.880 --> 01:42:15.720
shots, right, yeah, beauty
shots. Um. So apparently at halftime

1224
01:42:15.720 --> 01:42:18.760
they went to break and they put
up the Statute of Liberty video and the

1225
01:42:18.880 --> 01:42:25.960
Twin Towers are behind it. Yes, you're telling me, in twenty one

1226
01:42:26.039 --> 01:42:28.680
years you haven't been able to get
any b roll of the greater New York

1227
01:42:28.720 --> 01:42:31.520
area and there's nothing else going on, like I don't know Columbus Circle or

1228
01:42:32.159 --> 01:42:36.279
Times Square or anything else that would
be iconic. So um, yeah,

1229
01:42:36.479 --> 01:42:40.479
So a little whoopsie on the part
of ABC, which I believe is headquartered

1230
01:42:40.479 --> 01:42:44.039
in New York too. So there's
that. They are all right, very

1231
01:42:44.079 --> 01:42:46.479
good, thank you. So okay, okay, yep, all right,

1232
01:42:46.520 --> 01:42:50.000
there you go, Jeff Bellinger joining
us. You're on the k c O

1233
01:42:50.119 --> 01:42:56.359
Day radio program. Oh let's see
look at this. Oh that's cool.

1234
01:42:56.479 --> 01:43:00.680
So we put a list of the
most the most must drive road in each

1235
01:43:00.800 --> 01:43:02.640
state. Well, you gotta know
what North Carolinas is. Hold on,

1236
01:43:02.720 --> 01:43:06.800
I'm scrolling down ross. Do you
want to guess what the best scenic drive

1237
01:43:06.920 --> 01:43:14.039
in North Carolina? Probably is going
past tweet. No, No, that

1238
01:43:14.119 --> 01:43:21.079
would that's not even I mean dangerous. We're running across that street. I

1239
01:43:21.079 --> 01:43:26.359
don't know what the hell's wrong with
them. I have to assume in North

1240
01:43:26.439 --> 01:43:30.840
Carolina, as I'm continuing to scroll
here, it would be great if the

1241
01:43:30.880 --> 01:43:34.239
state started with an A. Wouldn't
it always good? Come on? Come

1242
01:43:34.279 --> 01:43:40.479
on, come on, come on, Oh New York's interesting. The Cayuga

1243
01:43:40.560 --> 01:43:43.640
Lake Scenic by Way. I don't
even know which one that is. Now

1244
01:43:44.079 --> 01:43:45.920
this is good because I think a
lot of people would assume I'm glad they

1245
01:43:46.000 --> 01:43:48.399
did this. A lot of people
would assume that, um, you'd go

1246
01:43:48.520 --> 01:43:50.960
Blue Ridge Parkway, which I think
would be a cop out. But it's

1247
01:43:51.079 --> 01:43:55.359
not. It's Tail of the Dragon, and I totally agree with that.

1248
01:43:56.399 --> 01:43:59.319
For you motorcycle enthusiasts too, I
know this is a must do, I

1249
01:43:59.439 --> 01:44:02.600
must do for you. Eleven miles, three hundred and sixteen hairpin curves,

1250
01:44:03.159 --> 01:44:10.279
and I could see now some people
would probably talk about one of the Outer

1251
01:44:10.439 --> 01:44:13.760
Banks roads, which I guess I
would understand. That's pretty straight shot,

1252
01:44:13.840 --> 01:44:18.079
you know, obviously to get down
you're going from like Manuo down to Hatteras.

1253
01:44:18.479 --> 01:44:21.039
But yeah, Taylor of the Dragon
is amazing, and I'm glad they

1254
01:44:21.079 --> 01:44:25.680
went with that on the list instead
of just copping out with the Blue Ridge,

1255
01:44:25.720 --> 01:44:28.680
which is great, don't get me
wrong. But you want a little

1256
01:44:29.000 --> 01:44:31.479
little flare, little flare, so
if something's wrong there, I guess you

1257
01:44:31.520 --> 01:44:34.960
can let me know. I check
this out real quick. I mentioned that

1258
01:44:35.079 --> 01:44:41.359
bud Light has found themselves in a
precarious situation because initially, when all of

1259
01:44:41.399 --> 01:44:45.960
this happened, they could have coupled
their statement with, well, look,

1260
01:44:45.039 --> 01:44:48.439
we do custom cans for a variety
of different influencers that we work with.

1261
01:44:48.600 --> 01:44:54.479
It's just one element of our just
one element of the advertising we do,

1262
01:44:54.600 --> 01:45:02.159
and this was just a very small
thing. But they neglected to verbally admonish

1263
01:45:02.560 --> 01:45:08.680
their marketing woman. And that's important
because it would have been very easy,

1264
01:45:08.840 --> 01:45:14.119
judging by her performance on that podcast
where she was being very derogatory about the

1265
01:45:14.319 --> 01:45:20.560
actual core foundational makeup of bud Lights
buyers, which obviously are largely men.

1266
01:45:20.680 --> 01:45:28.199
They're largely men that are under thirty, but they have a lot of lifelong

1267
01:45:28.600 --> 01:45:31.720
bud Light drinkers, very loyal drinkers. They've been very iconic and as a

1268
01:45:31.800 --> 01:45:35.119
result, they were the number one
beer in America. And if they had

1269
01:45:35.199 --> 01:45:41.039
just come out and issued both of
those statements, held to account their individual

1270
01:45:41.119 --> 01:45:45.479
who was who was being derogatory about
their own product that she's supposed to supposedly

1271
01:45:45.520 --> 01:45:47.960
in charge of promoting, basically saying, you know, we don't like all

1272
01:45:48.000 --> 01:45:50.640
the people that got us here,
a bunch of idiots, and instead We're

1273
01:45:50.640 --> 01:45:54.840
going to turn our attention to the
Dylan Mulvini's of the world. I think

1274
01:45:54.880 --> 01:45:59.720
they could have weathered this, but
they didn't. And now the Human rights

1275
01:45:59.800 --> 01:46:04.560
came and Paign is demanding that Anaheiser
Bush go all in and announced that they

1276
01:46:04.640 --> 01:46:10.760
stand in solidarity with the trans community. They're done. They had they even

1277
01:46:10.840 --> 01:46:14.399
had this this very generous amount of
time to try to pull themselves out of

1278
01:46:14.439 --> 01:46:18.279
this, but they didn't. And
now it's one or the other. And

1279
01:46:18.439 --> 01:46:23.239
I know what you're saying, Well, it's an easy choice because they probably

1280
01:46:23.439 --> 01:46:27.880
are not big within this liver of
a community out there, let alone all

1281
01:46:27.920 --> 01:46:30.199
the you know, many of the
people that are on there who would never

1282
01:46:30.319 --> 01:46:34.239
touch a domestic beer unless it was
a local craft brewery, which is their

1283
01:46:34.319 --> 01:46:38.520
decision. But now they're all in, and I don't know what they're gonna

1284
01:46:38.560 --> 01:46:43.479
do, but this thing is,
this ball is going to keep rolling all

1285
01:46:43.560 --> 01:46:46.520
weak, So continue to pay attention
to that. We got the video on

1286
01:46:46.560 --> 01:46:53.319
the blog at Casey on the Radio
dot com of the Indiana councilman who's decided

1287
01:46:53.399 --> 01:46:58.199
that he is identifying now as a
woman of color. Check that out,

1288
01:46:58.319 --> 01:47:00.840
and of course we'll see back here
right and early tomorrow,
