oo ha, thirty four and change. Speaking of time, we have how
many days till Christmas? Today? Is the twenty six twenty three days from
No, it's less than that. No, No, yeah, I went
the wrong way. I went the wrong way because it was twenty days yesterday,
so it'd be nineteen nineteen days until Christmas. How are you doing on
your shopping? There's a move in the house to formalize the impeachment inquiry.
You talk about a waste of time. This is such a waste of time.
Mike Johnson says. Every day there's a reason I guess to like these
people for whatever reason, and then the next day there's a reason not to
like them. There is no I know some of you are hardcore fanatic who
think that Joe Biden is the devil incarnate and that Donald Trump is like Nirvana.
Okay, so the rest of the world that actually thinks with a reality
quot realizes that The only thing this does is it embarrasses I mean, are
there reasons to impeach Biden? Reasons to impeach all of these guys? If
you really want to dig around, you can go back in history. The
first memory I have of anybody trying, you know, any real move to
impeach anybody was Bill Clinton, and that was a miserable failure. All they
did was embarrass him and a lot of other people. It didn't and if
he you know, he was impeached because he lied when he testified about his
deal with Monica Lewinsky. Okay, right, so you know you can say,
well, that was an impeachable the lying. It's this is the trick
with lawyers or with prosecutors, and it reminds me it's the same thinking with
oj. Okay, they couldn't get oj on the real charge of murdering his
ex wife and that kid that was with her, So they got him and
sent him into the slammer for what was kind of it was awkward. It
was this sort of trumped up thing when we're into that hotel room and he
got his memorabilia back and he was waving a gun around, you know that
kind of stuff. Well, it wasn't there wasn't he convicted in a civil
trial like something of a lesser charge. Oh yeah, So when her family
was fighting for child custody, he was supposed well, I don't know about
that. He was supposed to pay thirty three million dollars to the family of
was it Golden or Goldsmith or gold something or that that was the kid that
was killed with his wife, and that he figured out away. All these
guys Alex Jones, the same thing. They get settlements of judgments against them,
and they figure out how to hide all their money so they never have
to pay. I don't think that, but I think the only thing they
got from oj was his retirement, whatever money he had stashed away or his
kids got her. However, it worked that the Goldman family never got it.
So and so it's just the legal system. And so impeaching Biden would
cost the taxpayers millions of dollars. You can say, yeah, it's worth
it, No it's not. You can if you want to donate to the
impeachment inquiry and the impeachment proceedings, then you send in your check. I
don't want my money used for that purpose, thanks very much, because it
will never go anywhere. It's not He's not going to get impeached. So
what are we doing here? What are we We're wasting? I mean they
go through thirty five thousand pages of financial records, and you know, is
Biden guilty of stuff? Yeah? I think he is. I think he's
guilty as hell of being a crook attached to his son. But you're not
going to get him, especially in time for the election. So what are
we doing here? But how is it any different than what is being done
to Donald Trump? It isn't. Well, I don't know. I mean
in the impeachment. They've tried the impeachment stuff against Trump too. The stuff
that's being done that some of that is politically motivated, for sure, Jay,
the stuff, all the legal troubles, and some of it was brought
on by his own you know, he's done some things. I'm privy to
some folks who know him very well, and he's done some stuff that you
know, most people, let's put it this way, most people wouldn't be
able to get away with it, but he has. And so you know,
he give him kudos because he's clever whatever it is. He understands the
system and he works around the system. Sooner or later you break down that
stuff. I mean, there's something there's so much stuff that's been thrown against
him. How much of it is politic? A lot of it is political.
A lot of it is and he brings it on himself. It's almost
like he likes it. He relishes all the attention and then going out and
doing things that you know are not productive, not helpful. How is all
of this, any of this helpful in the running of our country. It's
not. And that's why we are in a jam, because we have people
who are not leaders, they are followers. They do what the political maelstream
suggests that they do just because I'm a Democrat, so I got to vote
with the Democratic leadership or I'm a Republican. And that's why we need a
third party and to wit with that. Some of you, the hardcore Trumpers,
can't stand Liz Cheney. Jen Horn is one of those, but she
has. You know, one of the reasons that she got booted is because
she was a strong critic of Trump. Now she said yesterday she's going she's
weighing a third party bid against Trump. She will she wants to run for
president because she thinks that it will be dire if Trump returns to power next
year, and it could be the end of American democracy. I don't know
whether it would or it wouldn't. I don't know that Trump at this point
will be good for the country. I think there were some things that he
did when he was in for the four years that were very good. But
he doesn't know right now. It's like almost like he's off his rocker with
stuff. Well, I know I had more money in my pocket when he
was president than I do. Yeah. Absolutely, I'm with you on that
one. Yep. So if that's the only way you judge, then and
most people do. Remember when what's his face who ran Clinton's campaign created the
phrase it's the economy stupid, and it is. That was you know,
That's why Clinton got elected because of the reality when George Bush the father did
his thing, that tax thing that was which was contrary to what he had
promised this, well, I didn't vote for him. I started voting for
libertarian candidates in nineteen ninety and I've never since then. I've never voted for
president for a candidate who's won, and I hope that changes this year.
If I vote for Robert Kennedy. But these other guys, I mean,
I find Liz Cheney and what she has to say pretty intriguing. She said
yesterday, I happened to think democracy is at risk as a result of Trump
continuing to have a grip on the Republican Party. I think democracy is at
risk internationally as well. I think she's right. There's a lot of stuff
going on that is just not good. So anyway, she always points to
January sixth as a reason to not back Trump, and there are a lot
of the stuff that does connect to you know, you asked, what's he
guilty of. I think there's pretty clear evidence that he's pretty well connected to
what happened on January sixth in one way, shape or form. Not about
all the other stuff, but there's something, at least in my mind,
he's connected to that in a way that's pretty unhealthy. Now. Cheney is
on the stump because she's got a new book called Oath and Honor, a
Memoir and a Warning, which focuses on the fallout of twenty twenty and the
events are on January sixth. She describes Trump as the most dangerous man everyone
habit the Oval Office, well, history would go back to I don't know
how. Let's define what dangerous is, right, Let's define that, and
in defining it, there were some characters who were around before Abraham Lincoln,
the eighteen after the founding Fathers, all of that first bunch, the Adams
and the Jefferson's and the Washington's and stuff. Well, the guys that came
along after that, Polk and some of these other nitwits that were president were
pretty corrupt. Well, and there's a totally different time too, where there
are other resources candidates have and presidents and anybody in politics they have today they
didn't have back then. What would some of those people have done if social
media was around in that day. In terms of music, what's trending right
now is the passing of Denny Lane, who was a founding member of the
Moody Blues also known as the Moody's. Among those of us who loved the
Moody Blues, he didn't stay with them, he wasn't. I think there's
only two members that are actually still on the road now with the original Moody
Blue story. That's John Lodge and Justin Heywood. Anyway, Denny Lane was
also a pal of Paul McCartney's and after leaving the Moody Blues he went in
to Wing. Yeah. Well, what's so fascinating is he's he's co founder
of two very significant bands in music history. I mean, you have the
mood To Blues Wings. It's just he had quite an incredible life and still
died so young. Yeah. Yeah, he wrote a lot of the songs
that the Moody He and Justin wrote most of the music early on for the
Moodies, and then he were collaborating with McCartney. He was into psychedelic stuff.
The movies founded I think sixty seven sixty eight, when they were all
just barely out of their teens. As I recall, they became very successful
very quickly, especially in England and Europe, and then they caught on over
here big time. And so it was sixty four when they first got started.
As a matter of fact, now i'm thinking about it, I think
they were in high school or they just they were obviously young. He was
no. Twenty because he was born in nineteen four, twenty four. I
think Justin is eighty or just about this. They are about the same age.
So we think about all these aging rockers and what's going on with the
world of rock and roll. It's a whole lot different now than it was,
for sure. He worked with Ginger Baker also, who is a pretty
classic rocker, and early on with the Knack, he was back and forth.
He was sought after because he was a great instrumentalist. He was kind
of a he was great at being in the moment, if you will,
being very creative with the things. You know, they do a lot of
last minute stuff, kind of like the Wrecking Crew with the music in Los
Angeles. So the passing of Denny Lane we talk about here on the Good
Day program. I'm Greg I'm sixty eight years old. I grew up in
Cleveland, Ohio, major in business administration. I do motivational speaking in addition
to substitute teaching. Part of reasons for my motivational speaking is I kind of
feel like I have a calling or giving back to the younger generation. You
know, the golden rule is doing to others you'd have them doing to you.
My wife, Wanda, as a senior flight attendant, She's been flying
for over thirty years. We do laugh quite a bit. I think most
adults will start realizing that they don't recall things as quickly as they used to,
or they don't remember things as vividly as they once did. I've been
taking Prevagen for about three years now. People say to me periodical, Man,
you got a memory like an elephant. It's really really helped me tremendously.

pull our opposite. That's what it comes to. Sorry, yeah, exactly.
Well, I'll be in California for Christmas anyway, so there's not much
chance that I would have. If I'm there, a white Christmas here,
maybe I might have a chance. Although the weather is supposed to be pretty
warm in the Northeast this winter, wet and warm, I'll take that over.
I like snow, don't get me wrong. I love the snow,
but it's the aftermath after a good snow storm. It always gets freezing cold.
A couple of days after, Oh, what's that, we did the
interview with the Marjorie Taylor Green, which would be posted. They're going to
listen to that in its entirety and draw your own conclusions. I like her.
Frankly, somebody just sent me a know it sounded to me like you
were flirting with her. Of course I was flirting with her. As soon
as soon as we were done chatting with her, I was like, I
want to be her friend. She yeah, yeah, so sweet. And
you kind of forget a lot of these, like any politician and a lot
of pretty much anybody in the public eye, but especially when it comes to
politicians, they are real people. They are real beings. They grew up
in families, and they tell she's a tough customer. If she ran a
construction company and did it successfully and has managed to put a few bucks away,
and she ran her own gym, she started her own CrossFit gym and
sold that. I think there were a couple of them down in Georgia.
She's somebody to be reckoned, with no question about it, even though she's
kind of a little bit crazy. But listen, who who's not in the
spotlight isn't a little bit crazy. I know I'm a little crazy. My
daughter says to me, Daddy, you're so strange. Okay, Yeah,
I admit to that, and that's what maybe makes me interesting to listen to
on the radio. Jay, your life is a little more. Yeah,
I take it as a compliment. I didn't think it was anything other than
the compliment as long as they're in the political realm here for a moment.
That bill that we have been touting here on this program and other radio programs,
the keep Am Radio in the car bill that's kind of a rough I
think it's officially called am for Every Vehicle Act, and it was set for
passage yesterday in the Senate. Ted Cruz is one of the major sponsors,
and he's ramming it through and they're trying to get universal consent or whatever they
call that to get it passed, and Rand Paul stopped it. So I
saw this headline. This is like sort of what we talk about with Marjorie
Taylor Green. Just because the headline indicates something, that doesn't mean that that's
the body of the story. So when I first saw this, I'm a
Rand Paul fan. Frankly, and so when I saw this, I thought,
what is he doing? So and Ted Cruz of course, was going,
oh, the only reason this building past today is because Senator and Paul
sank it. And the reason he sank it, however, was something This
is paragraph two of the story. What Senator Paul is trying to do is
add a modification to the bill which I one hundred and fifty percent support,
to end all electric vehicle subsidies. Get rid of them. These cars are
going to be nothing but a complete drain at the end of their life seven
or eight years from now. So he says that if you end the subsidies,
there's in more electric cars, you don't have to worry about the AM
radio and he's right about that too. So anyway, Senator Paul was he
actually called a station to say quote this is I'm just encapsulating his words.
I've always been a big fan of AM radio. It really has been a
good point for open and clear debate, allows for a longer discussion format than
you get sometimes on TV. And so then in that interview he introduced the
idea of pulling subsidies for these electric cars, which again are damnable and why
should somebody. I have a friend, great friend who bought a car.
She doesn't she doesn't believe and many of this stuff. She doesn't believe in
the electric cars, but because of the seventy five hundred dollars credit, she'll
take it and drive the car for a couple of years and turn it.
And that's why some of these people are thinking of you know, like electric
cars, then you know, you buy one and you take the credit and
so see you later to the car. That's a pretty smart way of dealing
with this situation. But I'm just I think that the deeper thing of looking
at this, this is a huge, huge, huge problem. You're gonna
these people are not thinking ahead at all. What are you gonna do with
the batteries? The cars are going to be worthless. It's just ridiculous.
And to have this kind of support for it, I can understand. I
get into You'll appreciate this, Jake. There was a hybrid Ford pickup truck
on the farm and I get into it to move it the other day,
and you know, you can't hear them because they're electric. When you get
started, they change, you know, they started electric, and then when
they need to be charged. The engine starts and charges things. Oh so
I'm in the thing and I pushed the start thing and it's kind of you
can't tell my listening that it's on. You just have to hit the accelerator
and I hope that it moves. But I couldn't figure I couldn't figure out
how to get it into gear. And I can figure out almost anything on
any piece of equipment, but I couldn't figure out how to get this thing
in to get anyway. And that's a hybrid. I can see there's a
practical reason for hybrids that, but they still have to have those batteries,
not you know, to the extent that the fully electric cars have. But
at any rate, so I wanted you know, there's a big push the
thing about the AM radio. It is a bipartisan bill because they had Marque
Massachusetts and crews from Texas are the ones who've been pushing it in the Senate,
and there are a lot of members of the House that are pushing I
actually should have asked Marjorie Jayla Green about this, but I wasn't thinking about
it because we were onto a couple of different things. But at any rate,
be interesting to see if he has success. We need to He's right,
pull the damn subsidies for the electric cars, all right. Some airplane
news of sorts. You may have heard the story about this YouTuber. He
was actually a former olympian Trevor Jacob, who got sentenced to six months in
jail yes esterday after admitting he intentionally crashed his plane to get views on YouTube.
Huh, what are you nuts? He filmed this stunt at the Santa
Barbara Airport a couple of years ago, and you know he hid some evidence
from investigators that is that he did this on purpose. This is a sickness.
You're getting people to watch you on social media? What the hell is
the matter with you? The prosecutors said, this guy most likely committed this
offense to generate social media and news coverage for himself, duh, and to
get financial gain. So for his trouble, he's going to spend six months
in the slammer. Come on, who isn't there right now? But do
you see the kids today? All respect the stuff? Oh how many hits
did you get today? For whatever it always had? You posted? Have
somebody to say, well, Doug, you're posting the interview with Marjorie Taylor
Green. What do you expect to happen from that? I expect a lot
of people to listen to it. But you know, I didn't do I
didn't have a conversation with her to gain looking for listeners support on my social
media channels. I just you know. But anyway, you get my drift.
Fascinating just pushing a book, Yeah, and looking forward to reading this
book absolutely, yeah, the title of the book. Yeah. And with
this day and a lot of people who are quote unquote influencers on social media
who aren't. The thing about social media is a lot of time these people
are teaching something or promoting a projects or a product or anything like that.
But then you have these people who are just doing these outlandish things. There's
I think it was mister beast is the one who bought a Lamborghini just so
he could destroy it, And of course that generates a lot of views.
People are watching and then have their opinions on it one way or the other.
In this one, he could have killed somebody, even if he thinks
it's a remote area. That he jumped out of the plane and let the
plane crash while there were cameras set up everywhere. What if somebody was hiking,
what if somebody was doing something some people could have died from this.
I'm wondering what. There's another sort of moderately similar story involving in off duty
Alaska Airlines pilot who was indicted this week for trying to shut off the engines
of the plane. Remember that story. There were eighty three people on the
plane, so he was indicted on an eighty three count attempted murder charge.
Name is Joseph Emerson. He was charged with one count of endangering the aircraft
and eighty three counts of recklessly endangering other people. So he pled not guilty.
Yeah, of course he led not guilty. And he's the planes at
thirty thousand feet and he tried to pull the engine fire handled in the cockpit.
He wasn't flying the plane. He was in the jump seat of the
plane as a just hitching a ride from one airport to another. I don't
know, I just what people are nuts, but you don't want to person
nuts in the cockpit of a plane when you're at thirty thousand feet, Thanks
very much. Hey, yeah yy. And clearly nobody had any inkling that
he was going to do something like this, or even capable of doing something
like this. We don't know what is going on in people's lives. We
don't know what is going on in their head, their emotional number, emotional
mental state. And it's one of those things of a lot of these mental
health crises. It's an invisible illness. Yeah, for sure. By the
way, I think the follow through. I was talking earlier this week about
the Last Airlines buying Hawaiian Airlines. That deal has moved a little closer to
fruition with him hearings in Washington, even though there are the Justice Department doesn't
want it to happen. It'd be interesting to see where it goes. All
right. The Israelis and the Palestinians still going at it, of course,
but we have the United States kind of in a rare punitive move against Israel.
State Department said yesterday it will impose travel bands on Jewish settlers implicated in
the attacks on Palestinians. I don't know how they find these people, but
Secretary of State Lincoln announced this step. He warned Israel last week that the
administration would be taking action over these attacks. I don't know who the individual
I mean, I don't know. How do you know who the individuals are?
How do you attract that? But somehow apparently they have they know who
some of these people are. And having been there, there are plenty of
crazy israelis, no question about it, just crazy, not as many of
them as the crazy Palaced. Not so much that a mass a mass is
more extreme, right exactly, So we shouldn't put up with it and give
these guys kudos. Biden says, you can't come here if you're an extremist,
and so he's putting the pedal to the metal, as it were.
So it's great business time for Caldron. I would think the phones would be

something we wanted to connect to because a lot of people are dumping X for
good reason and seemingly going to Reddit. And I think you said to me,
Jay, I remember being on Reddit a long time ago. Actually,
when I first started doing the syndicated program back in eighty eight, eighty nine,
read it was a thing like my what was it MySpace? What was
the other my Space? Yeah, there's MySpace. TikTok used to be called.
Musically, there was Snapchat, which is still Snapchat still relevant amongst them
young, the young snappers, the youngers. Listen to you, all right,
there's an interesting sort of buzz on Amy Roorbach and TJ. Holmes remember
them, They were the ones on television on ABC. They got fired because
they were having a romantic connection. And so now it turns out that the
former spouses of them, there's what's the correct pronoun there? So Amy Robock
and TJ. Holmes are together. Their exes are Andrews Shoe and Merrily fi
Big and they're dating. So the exes of these two are together. They've
created a nice scenario for you know, they've created something nice for themselves,
and they gave opportunity to these other two people maybe to find love. And
isn't that what it's all about? Yes, two people that wouldn't have gotten
together otherwise and they found salus in each other. This is kind of very
reminiscent in a way of Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani, who were both going
through marriage troubles at the same time, found a friendship and then they found
love and are married. And maybe this' I think that happened for them too,
with what's her face? What's the Ashton Kutcher and me looking the same
thing? That was the same thing. They were. They were friends and
then they were friends with benefits and then they were lovers like lovers lovers,
which is kind of interesting because they both had movies that came out about the
same time about situationships, about friends with benefits. Uh huh. I have
known how it was going to end, right. I think ABC looked very
bad in this. They look like old and just not with it. They're
not when they fired them, Oh my god, look they look really bad.
All right. So Mark Summers is somebody I knew. He was a
disc jockey before, and then he decided he and I both had the same
opportunity but at the same time, and to be game show hosts. He
took it. I didn't, but he's done very well. Most people know
who he is. He did Double Deer for a long time on Nickelodeon.
He's on the Food Network with a series called Unwrapped, And so he's now
going to bring his story to stage in an off Broadway show, which I
find intriguing because I don't I'm trying to imagine what you can get was the
average Broadway show last two hours? Right, I'm trying to figure out what
he's going to do for two hours, which is anything else? Yeah,
Well, then what you have the intermission too, so that kind of eats
up a little bit of time. Sometimes intermissions more interesting in the show.
I was a kid watching Double Dare and when Doubledare Live came through to my
neighborhood, Oh you better believe I was there. I was in those seats.
Yeah he was. He's an affable guy. He's good. He was
good as I'm surprised he's not still doing games on the Game Show Network.
That's something that he's really good at. I just he's one of those guys
that you know who he is, see him around, but you know,
he doesn't seem to make a lot of waves, and so maybe through the
show on Broadway he'll make some waves. It begins a sixteen week limited run
in February. It's called The Life and Slimes of Mark Summers, and it's
interactive. It's part interactive game show, part memoir. It seems like it's
going to be a lot of fun. Yeah, let's see what happens the
