<v Speaker 1>Told that Ukraine was gonna win Clay Travis at buck

00:00:03.799 --> 00:00:06.400
<v Speaker 1>Sexton today at noon on fifty five k r C

00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:07.960
<v Speaker 1>the talk station.

4
00:00:17.320 --> 00:00:22.519
<v Speaker 2>Fital five. I think about k r C the talk

5
00:00:22.559 --> 00:00:24.280
<v Speaker 2>station Happy Monday.

6
00:00:37.159 --> 00:00:38.159
<v Speaker 3>Was a vacation.

7
00:00:39.640 --> 00:00:41.079
<v Speaker 4>I'm the dude man.

8
00:00:41.039 --> 00:00:43.679
<v Speaker 2>You may be. I am Brian Thomas and a happy

9
00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:45.359
<v Speaker 2>money to you, trying to make it happy anyway. I'm

10
00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:48.200
<v Speaker 2>just trying to make some sense out of the craziness

11
00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:52.600
<v Speaker 2>going on in the world, which is a true struggle.

12
00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:55.719
<v Speaker 2>Although I have some interesting uh well I think interesting

13
00:00:55.719 --> 00:00:57.520
<v Speaker 2>thoughts and comments. Is I try to step back from

14
00:00:57.520 --> 00:00:59.759
<v Speaker 2>the fog of the craziness going on in the world,

15
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:04.159
<v Speaker 2>not the situation, the devolving situation between US and Ukraine

16
00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:07.079
<v Speaker 2>and our NATO friends and really kind of wondering whether

17
00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:09.319
<v Speaker 2>actually friends or not. Anyway, coming on the fifty five

18
00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:12.239
<v Speaker 2>Carsey Morning Show seven twenty every Monday with the former

19
00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:15.120
<v Speaker 2>Vice Mayor of the city since snat Christopher smitheman for

20
00:01:15.239 --> 00:01:18.280
<v Speaker 2>the Smith event. As is always the case, don't know

21
00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:20.879
<v Speaker 2>what he wants to talk about. Always enjoy the conversation,

22
00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:23.640
<v Speaker 2>his thoughts and comments, and I hope you do as well,

23
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:25.439
<v Speaker 2>which is one of the reasons why it gets me

24
00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:27.040
<v Speaker 2>out of bed on a Monday. At least I know

25
00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:29.760
<v Speaker 2>I can count on Christopher being on the rundown. Also

26
00:01:29.799 --> 00:01:32.000
<v Speaker 2>Money Monday with Brian James every Monday at eight oh five.

27
00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:35.200
<v Speaker 2>Today we'll talk about the first quarter GDP growth. We'll

28
00:01:35.200 --> 00:01:38.840
<v Speaker 2>talk about food prices and inflation, which segues over to

29
00:01:39.079 --> 00:01:44.920
<v Speaker 2>we should expect restaurant bankruptcies and finally four to one

30
00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:48.680
<v Speaker 2>K balances seems that they're trending higher. At least that's

31
00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:52.760
<v Speaker 2>the notes for Brian James on Monday Monday. Finally, we'll

32
00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:58.680
<v Speaker 2>talk with the since Anava for KRC Cares at eight forty.

33
00:01:58.760 --> 00:02:01.040
<v Speaker 2>I love my veteran friends out there. God bless each

34
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:03.120
<v Speaker 2>and every one of you, and I love hearing from you.

35
00:02:03.159 --> 00:02:04.519
<v Speaker 2>If you got a thought or comment you want to

36
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:07.959
<v Speaker 2>pass along, maybe stir the pot feel free five one three,

37
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:10.439
<v Speaker 2>seven four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred eighty two

38
00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:13.560
<v Speaker 2>to three talk pound five fifty on AT and T phones.

39
00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:15.479
<v Speaker 2>And as I like to point out, I always remember,

40
00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:18.599
<v Speaker 2>never forget fifty five care Sea dot com, get your podcasts,

41
00:02:18.960 --> 00:02:22.680
<v Speaker 2>get your books, and get your iHeartMedia app so you

42
00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:24.599
<v Speaker 2>can listen wherever you happen to be. Even if you're

43
00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:27.199
<v Speaker 2>in a different state. Love. Hearing from folks in different

44
00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:30.000
<v Speaker 2>states just blows my mind every time it happens. I'm

45
00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:33.039
<v Speaker 2>stuck in the I think I'm stuck in the decades

46
00:02:33.120 --> 00:02:36.719
<v Speaker 2>past Internet reality still hasn't sunk in for me. And

47
00:02:36.759 --> 00:02:41.199
<v Speaker 2>that's okay. Anyway, again, stepping back from the reality is

48
00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:43.680
<v Speaker 2>what's going on. I know everybody's all upset about this

49
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:48.560
<v Speaker 2>blow up that happened with Ukrainian President Zelensky and President

50
00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:52.280
<v Speaker 2>Trump and JD. Vance this past what was it Friday.

51
00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:58.039
<v Speaker 2>It's I think it's a lot of faux anger or reaction.

52
00:02:58.159 --> 00:03:01.120
<v Speaker 2>I got a friend in France who you know, it's like, oh,

53
00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:07.520
<v Speaker 2>Europe thinks. So it was just kind of an interesting exchange.

54
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:13.879
<v Speaker 2>And my perception, you know, just putting aside that politicians

55
00:03:13.919 --> 00:03:18.000
<v Speaker 2>are narcissistic clowns. Generally speaking, I think we need to

56
00:03:18.039 --> 00:03:21.919
<v Speaker 2>appreciate the fact that Ukraine on its own can't win

57
00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:27.800
<v Speaker 2>that war. Russia's might is tremendous compared to what Ukraine's

58
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:31.840
<v Speaker 2>got left. I mean, they're going around and rounding up people,

59
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:33.159
<v Speaker 2>and I mean this has been going on for a

60
00:03:33.199 --> 00:03:35.159
<v Speaker 2>long time. It's three years in a war, but they're

61
00:03:35.159 --> 00:03:37.199
<v Speaker 2>going around rounding up people in bars and sending them

62
00:03:37.280 --> 00:03:40.400
<v Speaker 2>front line people who don't necessarily want to fight. You

63
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:43.439
<v Speaker 2>got a lot of regions Ukraine that are ethnically Russian.

64
00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:48.120
<v Speaker 2>They believe in align with Russia. And I suppose if

65
00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:50.520
<v Speaker 2>you ask them, they'd rather be affiliated or be part

66
00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:55.639
<v Speaker 2>of Russia than in independent Ukraine. Ukraine's not an ATO member.

67
00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:00.439
<v Speaker 2>And is it worth going into World War or three

68
00:04:00.599 --> 00:04:05.639
<v Speaker 2>over Ukraine? I mean, and recognizing the power and might

69
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:09.039
<v Speaker 2>of Russia relative to Ukraine. You know, negotiating a peace

70
00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:11.479
<v Speaker 2>still is going to require some concessions on the part

71
00:04:11.479 --> 00:04:14.560
<v Speaker 2>of the Ukraine, of the Ukrainian people. They're going to

72
00:04:14.639 --> 00:04:17.759
<v Speaker 2>have to give up something because Russia right now has

73
00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:21.879
<v Speaker 2>the upper hand. Looking at NATO alone, they don't have

74
00:04:21.959 --> 00:04:25.360
<v Speaker 2>the military resources. They rely entirely on the United States,

75
00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:27.879
<v Speaker 2>Which is really my fundamental point on all my observations.

76
00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:36.040
<v Speaker 2>Everything seems to require our engagement and involvement. Why NATO's

77
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:38.079
<v Speaker 2>the one that's got most at stake here, They're the

78
00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:40.480
<v Speaker 2>ones most at risk. They believe that Russia is an

79
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:44.000
<v Speaker 2>existential threat to their existence or their own independence, then

80
00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:52.439
<v Speaker 2>man up. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said yesterday you'repe

81
00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:55.879
<v Speaker 2>prepared to take the lead in defense of Ukraine, fine,

82
00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:03.439
<v Speaker 2>including troops and planes. But here's the big giant butt

83
00:05:03.519 --> 00:05:07.040
<v Speaker 2>in the room needs the strong backing of the United States.

84
00:05:14.319 --> 00:05:17.000
<v Speaker 2>After a summer with eighteen European leaders, Starmar said a

85
00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:22.120
<v Speaker 2>coalition of the willing would defend a peace deal in

86
00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:25.920
<v Speaker 2>Ukraine and said a number of countries have signaled that

87
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:27.319
<v Speaker 2>they want to be a part of a plan to

88
00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:30.240
<v Speaker 2>bring durable peace to the country. Pasterte, what does that mean?

89
00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:34.600
<v Speaker 2>A peace deal? That's what Trump was trying to negotiate,

90
00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:39.240
<v Speaker 2>a resolution of the conflict. Now, if you substitute the

91
00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:42.920
<v Speaker 2>United States in these negotiations, are they going to be

92
00:05:42.920 --> 00:05:44.519
<v Speaker 2>come up with a able to come up with a

93
00:05:44.519 --> 00:05:48.600
<v Speaker 2>better deal, then maybe Trump might help negotiate. Don't you

94
00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:51.879
<v Speaker 2>think they are going to have to concee that Russia

95
00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:54.600
<v Speaker 2>has the upper hand, has already taken over giant, well

96
00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:58.279
<v Speaker 2>not giant chunks, but substantial chunks of Ukraine and is

97
00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:03.199
<v Speaker 2>now holding them those chunks that really are ethnically Russian people.

98
00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:06.680
<v Speaker 2>That there's gonna have to be some concessions to Russia

99
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:09.519
<v Speaker 2>and giving up pieces of Ukraine. Do you think the

100
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:12.560
<v Speaker 2>European Union can negotiate a quote unquote peace deal that

101
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:18.279
<v Speaker 2>results in Russia completely pulling out and restoring Ukraine's borders

102
00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:21.040
<v Speaker 2>to where they were before Russia invaded them. And I'm

103
00:06:21.040 --> 00:06:26.079
<v Speaker 2>not defending Russia's invasion. The side chatter on of this

104
00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:28.240
<v Speaker 2>who's at fault, Who's at fault? Well, of course Russia

105
00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:32.120
<v Speaker 2>is at fault. They're the ones that invaded. But a

106
00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:36.800
<v Speaker 2>welcome invasion at least in so far as the ethnic

107
00:06:36.879 --> 00:06:39.680
<v Speaker 2>Russians are concerned, that's the side they want to be on.

108
00:06:42.360 --> 00:06:44.199
<v Speaker 2>It's like all those Illinois counties that want to be

109
00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:47.920
<v Speaker 2>part of Indiana who are being held hostage here.

110
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:52.399
<v Speaker 5>Star war.

111
00:06:53.199 --> 00:06:56.319
<v Speaker 2>Not every nation will to feel able to contribute, but

112
00:06:56.399 --> 00:07:00.160
<v Speaker 2>that can't mean that we sit back. Instead, those will

113
00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:03.839
<v Speaker 2>will intensify planning now with real urgency word word word

114
00:07:03.879 --> 00:07:07.360
<v Speaker 2>word word word. The UK is prepared to back this

115
00:07:07.560 --> 00:07:10.040
<v Speaker 2>with boots on the ground and planes in the air.

116
00:07:10.079 --> 00:07:12.759
<v Speaker 2>Europe must do the heavy lifting. Well, fine, Europe, you

117
00:07:12.800 --> 00:07:15.240
<v Speaker 2>should have been doing the heavy lifting. Can you do

118
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:19.199
<v Speaker 2>the heavy lifting though you've depleted your military, you haven't

119
00:07:19.240 --> 00:07:22.519
<v Speaker 2>invested in military because we've been funding the whole ooh

120
00:07:22.680 --> 00:07:26.040
<v Speaker 2>almost oh, I caught myself from an sec violation. I'm

121
00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:30.560
<v Speaker 2>a little heated about this this morning. There wouldn't be

122
00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:33.800
<v Speaker 2>a it wouldn't be a NATO if it wasn't for

123
00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:40.639
<v Speaker 2>the United States funding it. To be clear, Starmer said,

124
00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:43.959
<v Speaker 2>we agree with mister Trump on the urgent need for

125
00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:48.600
<v Speaker 2>a durable peace. There's those words again, peace. What does

126
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:56.199
<v Speaker 2>that specifically mean? Prime Minister Starmer? What do you mean

127
00:07:56.240 --> 00:07:58.439
<v Speaker 2>when you want to negotiate peace? What kind of deal

128
00:07:58.480 --> 00:08:01.040
<v Speaker 2>are you going to create? You're gonna sit down with Putin?

129
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:04.240
<v Speaker 2>What's Putin gonna demand? Putin's gonna demand some land? Are

130
00:08:04.279 --> 00:08:06.920
<v Speaker 2>you willing to negotiate that? And then the aftermath because

131
00:08:06.920 --> 00:08:11.199
<v Speaker 2>everbody said, wha, what's gonna keep Putin from reinvading Ukraine?

132
00:08:11.920 --> 00:08:17.040
<v Speaker 2>We need troops and military hardware enter the United States again,

133
00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:25.160
<v Speaker 2>That's why they keep pivoting back to the United States.

134
00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:33.720
<v Speaker 2>Now this Friday devolvement, the discussion grew so heat to

135
00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:36.240
<v Speaker 2>the White House scrapped the signing ceremony for an agreement

136
00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:37.879
<v Speaker 2>that would have grown to the United States access to

137
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:41.399
<v Speaker 2>Ukraine's rare earth mentals in exchange for continued support. In

138
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:46.639
<v Speaker 2>exchange for continued support, we finally get something back in

139
00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:50.080
<v Speaker 2>return for the billions of dollars that we're throwing at

140
00:08:50.080 --> 00:08:53.600
<v Speaker 2>this pointless war. I don't have a problem with that.

141
00:08:54.879 --> 00:08:57.919
<v Speaker 2>Rather than US unilaterally giving up and were broke. By

142
00:08:57.960 --> 00:09:01.000
<v Speaker 2>the way, I'm sorry, I have to throw the reality

143
00:09:01.080 --> 00:09:04.480
<v Speaker 2>into the room. Thirty six trillion dollars in the whole

144
00:09:04.559 --> 00:09:07.840
<v Speaker 2>debt service now at a trillion dollars annually. We're blank

145
00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:12.559
<v Speaker 2>and broke man. And yet we're expected to continue to

146
00:09:12.559 --> 00:09:15.399
<v Speaker 2>throw billions and billions and billions of dollars in aid

147
00:09:15.480 --> 00:09:20.399
<v Speaker 2>to NATO. Generally speaking, and of this specific conflict in Ukraine,

148
00:09:21.480 --> 00:09:33.679
<v Speaker 2>everybody turns to us. Everybody turns to us. Trump said

149
00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:36.879
<v Speaker 2>he determined that Zelunsky is not ready for peace if

150
00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:42.120
<v Speaker 2>America is involved, because he feels our involvement gives him

151
00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:49.159
<v Speaker 2>a big advantage in negotiations. Well, no kidding, because apparently

152
00:09:49.159 --> 00:09:51.919
<v Speaker 2>without our involvement in our military hardware and the billions

153
00:09:51.960 --> 00:09:54.799
<v Speaker 2>of dollars of aid, they'd have lost the war already.

154
00:09:59.240 --> 00:10:02.759
<v Speaker 2>Starmar said yesterday Prime Prime Minister, nobody wanted to see

155
00:10:02.960 --> 00:10:05.600
<v Speaker 2>what happened last Friday, But I do not accept that

156
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:09.159
<v Speaker 2>the US is an unreliable ally. The US has been

157
00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:11.759
<v Speaker 2>a reliable ally of the UK for many many decades

158
00:10:12.039 --> 00:10:14.919
<v Speaker 2>and continues to be. There are no two countries as

159
00:10:14.960 --> 00:10:18.399
<v Speaker 2>closely along as ours. Our defense AHA, our security HA,

160
00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:21.320
<v Speaker 2>and our intelligence is intertwined in a way. No two

161
00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:25.320
<v Speaker 2>other countries are. Well, that's probably all accurate. How big

162
00:10:25.399 --> 00:10:27.799
<v Speaker 2>is the United Kingdom's military now that we have been

163
00:10:27.919 --> 00:10:32.480
<v Speaker 2>sort of the police force of the entire Natal Alliance

164
00:10:32.919 --> 00:10:40.399
<v Speaker 2>since the end of World War two? Starmer, for his part,

165
00:10:40.559 --> 00:10:43.399
<v Speaker 2>said he announced a two billion dollar export financing toe

166
00:10:43.440 --> 00:10:46.639
<v Speaker 2>of the Ukraine to purchase five thousand air defense missiles

167
00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:51.879
<v Speaker 2>manufactured in Belfast. Ah, the military industrial complex exists outside

168
00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:54.039
<v Speaker 2>of the United States. You didn't know there were weapon

169
00:10:54.080 --> 00:10:57.639
<v Speaker 2>manufacturers in Belfast, did you? He signed a two point

170
00:10:57.679 --> 00:11:01.120
<v Speaker 2>seven billion dollar loan for additional military Ukraine. Note that

171
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:04.720
<v Speaker 2>that's alone, not a gift. We haven't been loaning. We've

172
00:11:04.759 --> 00:11:09.320
<v Speaker 2>just been giving away. And Trump was trying to negotiate

173
00:11:09.399 --> 00:11:12.159
<v Speaker 2>some measure of protection for the United States and mechanism

174
00:11:12.279 --> 00:11:15.960
<v Speaker 2>to maybe benefit us in return for military hardware by

175
00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:19.440
<v Speaker 2>way of the minerals deal. That was the point of that. Sorry,

176
00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:21.639
<v Speaker 2>no more free lunch man. You better give us something

177
00:11:21.679 --> 00:11:24.519
<v Speaker 2>in return for what we are taking from us. You're

178
00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:28.240
<v Speaker 2>not entitled to our money, our weapons, and our support.

179
00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:36.919
<v Speaker 2>British Ambassador of the United States Peter Mandelssohn called for

180
00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:41.159
<v Speaker 2>a reset between the US and Ukraine, encouraging Zelunsi to

181
00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:43.600
<v Speaker 2>sign the minerals deal. He said, what helping sure the

182
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:47.480
<v Speaker 2>United States has a stake in Ukraine's future? He said,

183
00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:51.240
<v Speaker 2>the United States must have a role in any peace deal. Now, pauls,

184
00:11:51.360 --> 00:11:55.559
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna ask yourself, why is that? Why do we

185
00:11:55.600 --> 00:11:59.919
<v Speaker 2>have to be involved at all? Listen, I understand ice

186
00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:06.000
<v Speaker 2>Relationianism isn't a practical foreign policy, to quote Casablanca, But

187
00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.559
<v Speaker 2>how is it that we are the crutch upon which

188
00:12:11.639 --> 00:12:17.320
<v Speaker 2>the world relies in in negotiating peace deals. What if

189
00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:20.559
<v Speaker 2>you just sort of, you know, magically took us out

190
00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:23.480
<v Speaker 2>of the equation? What the hell would they do without us?

191
00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:35.759
<v Speaker 2>Apparently nothing? Mandelssion this British Ambassador of the United States

192
00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:37.879
<v Speaker 2>said on ABC's This Week, we would also like to

193
00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:42.919
<v Speaker 2>see the United States giving us cover for this. We

194
00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:45.879
<v Speaker 2>want to know the US is covering our backs in

195
00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:49.200
<v Speaker 2>what we are putting into Ukraine on the ground that

196
00:12:49.200 --> 00:12:51.679
<v Speaker 2>there is some sort of ultimate backstop if things get

197
00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:54.320
<v Speaker 2>really nasty. He said, the Russians need to know they

198
00:12:54.320 --> 00:12:58.320
<v Speaker 2>are going to answer to the United States as well

199
00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:02.120
<v Speaker 2>as to the Europeans on the It sound like world

200
00:13:02.120 --> 00:13:08.200
<v Speaker 2>War three to you. It seems to me to be

201
00:13:08.279 --> 00:13:10.879
<v Speaker 2>the desire of these leaders. It's like, you know, we're

202
00:13:10.919 --> 00:13:13.519
<v Speaker 2>just gonna go headlong into World War three. You know,

203
00:13:14.360 --> 00:13:16.559
<v Speaker 2>maybe for those folks out there that are interested in

204
00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:21.919
<v Speaker 2>population control, there's your answer. The Malthusians will love it.

205
00:13:21.960 --> 00:13:25.000
<v Speaker 2>Boy will wipe out half the world with nuclear weapons,

206
00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:28.559
<v Speaker 2>and we won't have all these cockroaches that the globalists

207
00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:34.159
<v Speaker 2>and the Greens call well killers of the planet if

208
00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:37.360
<v Speaker 2>we eradicate a whole bunch of them. I don't know.

209
00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:38.759
<v Speaker 2>I hate to go down that road and make those

210
00:13:38.799 --> 00:13:41.679
<v Speaker 2>things assertions out loud, but what in the hell is

211
00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:45.960
<v Speaker 2>going on here? But it really does give you a

212
00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:49.039
<v Speaker 2>sense of perspective, doesn't it. Everyone keeps turning to us,

213
00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:51.799
<v Speaker 2>Everyone keeps turning to us. They have been relying upon

214
00:13:51.919 --> 00:13:55.080
<v Speaker 2>us now for decades and decades, and I'm sorry, going

215
00:13:55.080 --> 00:14:00.440
<v Speaker 2>back to the fundamental point here, we're broke. Five eighteen

216
00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:02.559
<v Speaker 2>fifty five kc DE talk station. Feel free to call.

217
00:14:02.639 --> 00:14:06.519
<v Speaker 2>I've love to hear what you think about this. I'm baffled.

218
00:14:06.559 --> 00:14:11.240
<v Speaker 2>I am completely perplexed. I'll be right back. Surprize of

219
00:14:11.320 --> 00:14:13.000
<v Speaker 2>how cold it is. Didn't seem that way when I

220
00:14:13.039 --> 00:14:16.039
<v Speaker 2>walked out to my car this morning, about twenty two

221
00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:18.240
<v Speaker 2>on a Monday. Let's go to the Phone's got several

222
00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:21.799
<v Speaker 2>callers online and we'll start with Mississippi James, and we'll

223
00:14:21.799 --> 00:14:24.559
<v Speaker 2>get to New Hampshire, Gary, my out of state friends, James.

224
00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:26.399
<v Speaker 2>Welcome back, my friend. Happy Monday to you.

225
00:14:27.639 --> 00:14:31.480
<v Speaker 6>Yes, sir, doctor Brian. Now I did a little dive.

226
00:14:31.600 --> 00:14:32.159
<v Speaker 5>I didn't do.

227
00:14:32.159 --> 00:14:35.759
<v Speaker 6>A deep dive until Ukraine. But they say this go

228
00:14:35.879 --> 00:14:42.320
<v Speaker 6>back to the nineties when Ukraine surrenders is nuclear arms

229
00:14:42.360 --> 00:14:48.480
<v Speaker 6>capability in exchange for the United States and the European

230
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:53.600
<v Speaker 6>nation protected them against all foreign affairs. So this stuff

231
00:14:53.639 --> 00:14:57.679
<v Speaker 6>had been brought forward to today. Now we know the

232
00:14:57.720 --> 00:15:00.600
<v Speaker 6>war been going on for three years. We don't see

233
00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:03.639
<v Speaker 6>where Joe track to negotiate in it. I mean, we

234
00:15:03.679 --> 00:15:06.720
<v Speaker 6>don't know to underline it. But yeah, they did supply

235
00:15:06.840 --> 00:15:12.440
<v Speaker 6>to the money and the ammunition. Because Ukraine supposed to

236
00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:15.600
<v Speaker 6>gave up their capability in the nineties.

237
00:15:15.639 --> 00:15:20.200
<v Speaker 2>Well, we didn't provide them with a defense obligation. There's

238
00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:22.840
<v Speaker 2>no written treaty that said the European Union or the

239
00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:26.120
<v Speaker 2>United States would send military troops or boots on the

240
00:15:26.120 --> 00:15:30.960
<v Speaker 2>ground to defend them militarily. Now, we've got this relationship

241
00:15:31.000 --> 00:15:33.240
<v Speaker 2>with NATO countries, so if one of the NATO countries

242
00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:35.720
<v Speaker 2>is invader, the United States has a defense obligation. But

243
00:15:36.240 --> 00:15:38.559
<v Speaker 2>I haven't seen anywhere where it's written that we have

244
00:15:38.679 --> 00:15:41.000
<v Speaker 2>to defend Ukraine against the foreign invader.

245
00:15:42.679 --> 00:15:47.080
<v Speaker 6>Well, not by sinning, not by senning military, which we

246
00:15:47.200 --> 00:15:52.159
<v Speaker 6>have not done that. We just send money and they quit. Yeah,

247
00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:55.960
<v Speaker 6>it's a proxy war, so if they you know, like

248
00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:58.000
<v Speaker 6>I said, I didn't do a deep dive into it

249
00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:00.759
<v Speaker 6>and still got to do my research, but that's what

250
00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:03.360
<v Speaker 6>I came up with. This goes back to the nineties.

251
00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:05.919
<v Speaker 6>So you may have a much smarter call of more

252
00:16:05.960 --> 00:16:09.159
<v Speaker 6>informed callers than I am that may be able to

253
00:16:09.200 --> 00:16:10.559
<v Speaker 6>shine some more light on this.

254
00:16:11.840 --> 00:16:13.600
<v Speaker 5>All right, have a good day here YouTube.

255
00:16:13.720 --> 00:16:15.679
<v Speaker 2>James. Always good to hear from you, my friend. We

256
00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:17.720
<v Speaker 2>have time for another one, Joe. Yes, we do a

257
00:16:17.799 --> 00:16:20.919
<v Speaker 2>new Hampshire. Gary. Welcome back to the Morning Show.

258
00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:24.000
<v Speaker 6>Gary.

259
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:30.080
<v Speaker 2>Well, I guess Gary's not going to be speaking with

260
00:16:30.279 --> 00:16:33.360
<v Speaker 2>us this morning, so anyhow we're at the time. In

<v Speaker 2>this segment, Pat You'll be first out of the gate

<v Speaker 2>liking or if five one three seven eight hundred two

<v Speaker 2>three talk timet five fifty on eighth and funds. As promise, Charlie,

266
00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:54.639
<v Speaker 2>hang on because Pat's first out of the gate. As promise, Pat,

267
00:16:54.639 --> 00:16:56.200
<v Speaker 2>thanks for holding over the break there. Welcome to the

268
00:16:56.240 --> 00:16:56.799
<v Speaker 2>Morning Show.

269
00:16:57.720 --> 00:17:00.399
<v Speaker 7>Oh thank you, Brian. I'm about as up that as

270
00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:05.240
<v Speaker 7>you are. One thing that I wanted to know, Uh

271
00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:12.400
<v Speaker 7>Lizinsky had breakfast with some Democrats and some Republicans before

272
00:17:12.440 --> 00:17:17.680
<v Speaker 7>he went to meet with uh Donald Trump. The thing is,

273
00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:21.359
<v Speaker 7>I want to know who the Democrats and the repair

274
00:17:21.559 --> 00:17:24.640
<v Speaker 7>Well we know some of the dumbs because she was

275
00:17:24.720 --> 00:17:29.880
<v Speaker 7>one yesterday. But anyway, it seems to me like they

276
00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:32.920
<v Speaker 7>might have pumped him up the you know, to go

277
00:17:33.039 --> 00:17:37.359
<v Speaker 7>after uh Donald Trump, because Trump is trying to get

278
00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:42.160
<v Speaker 7>the peace and the war, and I think uh Lizinsky,

279
00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:45.000
<v Speaker 7>with all the billions that he's got, he doesn't even

280
00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:47.880
<v Speaker 7>know where half of it is. I just want to

281
00:17:47.920 --> 00:17:51.160
<v Speaker 7>know what they said to him that got him to

282
00:17:51.920 --> 00:17:55.640
<v Speaker 7>do what he did at the White House. So but anyway, Brian,

283
00:17:56.359 --> 00:18:00.440
<v Speaker 7>if there's a person out there that digs into the stuff,

284
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:01.640
<v Speaker 7>I like to know who they.

285
00:18:01.519 --> 00:18:02.839
<v Speaker 8>All were at the breakfast.

286
00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:07.079
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, anyway, sweetheart, you have a try to stay call them.

287
00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:07.359
<v Speaker 9>I know.

288
00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:10.559
<v Speaker 7>I'm trying to calm down, have a good day, and

289
00:18:10.720 --> 00:18:12.160
<v Speaker 7>keep praying for the country.

290
00:18:12.599 --> 00:18:15.279
<v Speaker 2>Thanks Pat, Yes, absolutely pray for the country that we're

291
00:18:15.359 --> 00:18:18.680
<v Speaker 2>because we're broke. Going back to that fundamental promise, we

292
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:22.839
<v Speaker 2>are going to spend ourselves into our oblivion. Therein lies

293
00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:27.920
<v Speaker 2>the challenge. I mean, Lord Almighty, the world has its

294
00:18:28.039 --> 00:18:32.680
<v Speaker 2>hand in our pocket. That's my observation. I was like,

295
00:18:32.680 --> 00:18:37.279
<v Speaker 2>what prompted this rant this morning? You know, peace beasp spaces,

296
00:18:37.480 --> 00:18:41.480
<v Speaker 2>United States, Peace beast pa species. But we need the

297
00:18:41.559 --> 00:18:45.960
<v Speaker 2>United States and just really try to be you know,

298
00:18:46.000 --> 00:18:48.200
<v Speaker 2>step a ten thousand foot level. And he's so, wait

299
00:18:48.240 --> 00:18:51.440
<v Speaker 2>a second, why does the rest of the world think

300
00:18:51.480 --> 00:18:57.000
<v Speaker 2>it needs our approval or that we need to blessed

301
00:18:57.119 --> 00:18:59.839
<v Speaker 2>lay our hands upon whatever negotiation they want to enter

302
00:18:59.880 --> 00:19:06.720
<v Speaker 2>in to. It's because we keep funding every blanket project

303
00:19:06.799 --> 00:19:08.839
<v Speaker 2>in the world. We keep throwing all of our the

304
00:19:08.880 --> 00:19:12.400
<v Speaker 2>money that doesn't exist out into the world. They are

305
00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:15.079
<v Speaker 2>hooked up with like an umbilical court to the United

306
00:19:15.079 --> 00:19:21.160
<v Speaker 2>States pocketbook. I think that's what needs to stop. Oh yes,

307
00:19:21.240 --> 00:19:23.599
<v Speaker 2>that will lower our power and influence in the world.

308
00:19:23.599 --> 00:19:26.240
<v Speaker 2>But you know, in the grand scheme of things, So

309
00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:32.119
<v Speaker 2>what do you want to be hooked at? That was

310
00:19:32.160 --> 00:19:33.759
<v Speaker 2>kind of the point I made to my friend in France.

311
00:19:34.119 --> 00:19:38.559
<v Speaker 2>You know, I wouldn't want to be dependent upon us. Well,

312
00:19:38.599 --> 00:19:41.640
<v Speaker 2>it's ruining your relationship with the NATO countries. Well well,

313
00:19:41.680 --> 00:19:43.920
<v Speaker 2>you know, okay, let's pause some run and let's take

314
00:19:44.400 --> 00:19:48.799
<v Speaker 2>again a ten thousand foot look at what NATO has become.

315
00:19:51.319 --> 00:19:57.200
<v Speaker 2>Stiflers of free speech, pursuers of zero carbon and green energy,

316
00:19:57.480 --> 00:19:59.960
<v Speaker 2>and they can't even afford to run their own plants

317
00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:05.119
<v Speaker 2>because they've put themselves in that position Greta Thunberg dominating

318
00:20:05.119 --> 00:20:13.039
<v Speaker 2>their energy policy. We pick and choose in the world

319
00:20:13.079 --> 00:20:16.799
<v Speaker 2>who we want relationships with autocracies, you know, help We've

320
00:20:16.799 --> 00:20:21.079
<v Speaker 2>got significant trade with China, who's our biggest genuine existential

321
00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:25.240
<v Speaker 2>threat in the world. We don't see eye to eye

322
00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:27.680
<v Speaker 2>with most of the NATO countries in terms of how

323
00:20:27.680 --> 00:20:30.880
<v Speaker 2>they're run. Again, going back to free speech, for example,

324
00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:37.640
<v Speaker 2>they don't allow it. Isn't that a human rights abuse?

325
00:20:39.240 --> 00:20:49.039
<v Speaker 2>Stifling individual thought? Yes? We have historic relationship with NATO.

326
00:20:49.119 --> 00:20:51.519
<v Speaker 2>How we rebuilt most of those countries in the aftermath

327
00:20:51.559 --> 00:20:54.519
<v Speaker 2>of World War Two. We trade with them. If it

328
00:20:54.599 --> 00:20:56.480
<v Speaker 2>wasn't for US, I don't think that they would be

329
00:20:56.519 --> 00:20:59.720
<v Speaker 2>as economically successful as they are. Same thing with China

330
00:21:00.079 --> 00:21:02.759
<v Speaker 2>are imbalance with China is overwhelming? Why because with the

331
00:21:02.799 --> 00:21:08.559
<v Speaker 2>wealthiest country in the world sort of kind of ignoring

332
00:21:08.599 --> 00:21:14.680
<v Speaker 2>our massive debt. See what Charlie's got this morning, Charlie,

333
00:21:14.680 --> 00:21:16.680
<v Speaker 2>Welcome in the Morning Show. Sorry for my rent there.

334
00:21:16.680 --> 00:21:18.920
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to get to your call. Welcome.

335
00:21:20.079 --> 00:21:21.759
<v Speaker 10>Yeah. I love your program, Brian.

336
00:21:21.799 --> 00:21:24.240
<v Speaker 9>I try to listen to it as often as I

337
00:21:24.319 --> 00:21:29.039
<v Speaker 9>can too. Comments. I think that is it the Dunbar region.

338
00:21:29.519 --> 00:21:33.359
<v Speaker 9>I think they're mostly epic Russians? Yes, why not just

339
00:21:33.519 --> 00:21:37.240
<v Speaker 9>give that to the Russians. That's an exchange for Russia

340
00:21:37.359 --> 00:21:41.559
<v Speaker 9>leaving and then Russia allowing a huge buffer zone between

341
00:21:41.640 --> 00:21:48.279
<v Speaker 9>Russia and Ukraine following this, and that way we'll have

342
00:21:48.720 --> 00:21:51.839
<v Speaker 9>at least a tenuous piece. That's my first comment.

343
00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:54.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean and that that goes to my point

344
00:21:54.160 --> 00:21:57.559
<v Speaker 2>about ethnic Russians there, that the Dunbass region or Dunbar

345
00:21:57.599 --> 00:22:02.640
<v Speaker 2>region is mostly oh with Russia because they are ethnically Russian,

346
00:22:02.640 --> 00:22:05.599
<v Speaker 2>and they relate to Russia and not Ukraine as an

347
00:22:05.599 --> 00:22:10.119
<v Speaker 2>independent country. I mean, it doesn't it's not an affront

348
00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:12.400
<v Speaker 2>to them to be a part of Russia. That's the point.

349
00:22:12.519 --> 00:22:16.319
<v Speaker 2>And to negotiate a peace because Russia's got the upper

350
00:22:16.359 --> 00:22:21.519
<v Speaker 2>hand militarily, it's going to require some land concessions. Anybody

351
00:22:21.640 --> 00:22:24.079
<v Speaker 2>practically reals life realize. That's why Puttin is like, hey,

352
00:22:24.119 --> 00:22:28.000
<v Speaker 2>screw you guys. You know we're winning, and do we

353
00:22:28.039 --> 00:22:29.720
<v Speaker 2>want to risk World War three by putting a whole

354
00:22:29.720 --> 00:22:32.319
<v Speaker 2>bunch of troops in there in order to sustain the

355
00:22:32.400 --> 00:22:36.640
<v Speaker 2>Russia or the Ukrainian front from further incursions by Russia?

356
00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:41.519
<v Speaker 2>Is it worth global devastation for that. I'm of the

357
00:22:41.599 --> 00:22:46.920
<v Speaker 2>mind to say, no, it's not. So everybody's talking about peace,

358
00:22:47.039 --> 00:22:50.839
<v Speaker 2>what does peace mean? Vladimir Putin's gonna say peace requires

359
00:22:51.000 --> 00:22:55.240
<v Speaker 2>land concessions. We're winning the war. I've got no reason

360
00:22:55.400 --> 00:22:58.559
<v Speaker 2>to give up on the advances we've made. Besides, go

361
00:22:58.559 --> 00:23:00.079
<v Speaker 2>ahead and do a poll of the people in the

362
00:23:00.119 --> 00:23:02.920
<v Speaker 2>areas that we've taken over, and they'll probably say they're

363
00:23:02.960 --> 00:23:06.000
<v Speaker 2>okay with being part of Russia. That's I mean, that's

364
00:23:06.079 --> 00:23:08.240
<v Speaker 2>kind of where I'm going here. They talk piece piece

365
00:23:08.279 --> 00:23:11.160
<v Speaker 2>piece piece piece, but they never articulate out loud they

366
00:23:11.279 --> 00:23:13.640
<v Speaker 2>mean the NATO countries who are now I guess, taking

367
00:23:13.680 --> 00:23:19.000
<v Speaker 2>the front on negotiating a piece. They never say out

368
00:23:19.000 --> 00:23:20.119
<v Speaker 2>loud what that means.

369
00:23:20.839 --> 00:23:21.200
<v Speaker 5>Glad to me.

370
00:23:21.319 --> 00:23:24.319
<v Speaker 2>Puttin's going to have a say in that, isn't he right?

371
00:23:27.279 --> 00:23:29.440
<v Speaker 2>Five point thirty five fifty five k se DE Talk station.

372

00:23:38.119 --> 00:23:42.119
<v Speaker 2>dive into the stack is stupid. Oh parenthetically, PG sitting

377
00:23:46.079 --> 00:23:49.400
<v Speaker 2>from the local stories that I didn't get to anybody

378
00:23:49.480 --> 00:23:51.720
<v Speaker 2>placing bets on whether he's going. They're going to accept it.

379
00:23:52.680 --> 00:23:54.640
<v Speaker 2>Stick around, be right back after these brief words.

388
00:24:17.519 --> 00:24:19.400
<v Speaker 2>got Dwayne on the line. Dwayne, thanks for calling this

389
00:24:19.480 --> 00:24:21.119
<v Speaker 2>morning in a very happy Monday to you, sir.

390
00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:24.559
<v Speaker 10>Good morning, Brian, Happy Monday.

391
00:24:24.759 --> 00:24:25.000
<v Speaker 2>Thanks.

392
00:24:25.359 --> 00:24:25.480
<v Speaker 10>Hey.

393
00:24:25.680 --> 00:24:29.799
<v Speaker 12>I think I think Trump advanced just out at Zelensky

394
00:24:29.960 --> 00:24:34.480
<v Speaker 12>for what he is. Can basically put our corrupt politicians

395
00:24:34.480 --> 00:24:37.519
<v Speaker 12>on notice who were lining their pockets from this money

396
00:24:37.559 --> 00:24:42.680
<v Speaker 12>laundry operation. The big thing to remember is our country,

397
00:24:42.799 --> 00:24:50.279
<v Speaker 12>through USAID funded a CIA news organization. Remember the whistleblower,

398
00:24:50.759 --> 00:24:56.960
<v Speaker 12>Lieutenant Colonel Vinman, who uh out at Trump on the

399
00:24:57.160 --> 00:25:01.160
<v Speaker 12>perfect phone call, and Zelensky through Trump under the bus,

400
00:25:01.160 --> 00:25:05.519
<v Speaker 12>and that's why he got impeached. So Trump did not

401
00:25:05.680 --> 00:25:11.559
<v Speaker 12>forget that, let me tell you. So he embarrassed Zelenski.

402
00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:17.240
<v Speaker 12>And now, of course Finman is a Democrat congressman, so

403
00:25:17.400 --> 00:25:22.160
<v Speaker 12>they rewarded him by testifying to impeach Trump. And now

404
00:25:22.200 --> 00:25:27.200
<v Speaker 12>he's a Democratic congressman for using our tax dollars through USAID.

405
00:25:28.640 --> 00:25:32.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and you know that's another important fundamental point. Ukraine

406
00:25:32.039 --> 00:25:34.960
<v Speaker 2>does not have clean hands. It has notably been a

407
00:25:35.039 --> 00:25:37.559
<v Speaker 2>very corrupt country. It's as if you know, we were

408
00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:39.680
<v Speaker 2>when people he said, oh we need to defend Ukraine,

409
00:25:39.680 --> 00:25:41.799
<v Speaker 2>need to defend Ukraine. And that's why I mentioned about

410
00:25:41.839 --> 00:25:44.440
<v Speaker 2>picking and choosing the countries that we are willing to

411
00:25:44.440 --> 00:25:46.799
<v Speaker 2>have relationships with and those we are not. You know,

412
00:25:46.839 --> 00:25:48.680
<v Speaker 2>there are countries we work with all the time that

413
00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:51.640
<v Speaker 2>are terrible with human rights abuses, and there are countries

414
00:25:51.680 --> 00:25:54.079
<v Speaker 2>that we refuse to work with because well, you know,

415
00:25:54.119 --> 00:25:57.480
<v Speaker 2>they're autocracies, or they're you know, they're communists, or I mean,

416
00:25:57.640 --> 00:25:59.559
<v Speaker 2>fill in the blank. You just sort of pick and

417
00:25:59.640 --> 00:26:03.160
<v Speaker 2>chew is what sins are going to justify or not

418
00:26:03.359 --> 00:26:05.960
<v Speaker 2>justify a relationship with, or you're willing to overlook them.

419
00:26:05.960 --> 00:26:09.359
<v Speaker 2>But Ukraine does not have clean hands at all. And

420
00:26:09.440 --> 00:26:11.440
<v Speaker 2>you go back to the Biden administration. You think about

421
00:26:11.480 --> 00:26:15.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, Hunter Biden's relationship Barissmal Holdings. You know, there's

422
00:26:15.519 --> 00:26:20.440
<v Speaker 2>corruption all day long. So yeah, it just there's so

423
00:26:20.720 --> 00:26:24.799
<v Speaker 2>much to take into account here. And this isn't a

424
00:26:24.920 --> 00:26:28.640
<v Speaker 2>black and white situation. It is as gray and as

425
00:26:28.920 --> 00:26:33.880
<v Speaker 2>obtuse and and foggy as anything could possibly be. Appreciate

426
00:26:33.880 --> 00:26:38.680
<v Speaker 2>the call, Dwayne, I really do. This whole thing's got

427
00:26:38.680 --> 00:26:42.000
<v Speaker 2>me really down over to the stack of stupid. But

428
00:26:42.039 --> 00:26:44.079
<v Speaker 2>you can feel free to call anyway interrupt the stacker stupid,

429
00:26:44.079 --> 00:26:46.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't mind. I thought this was hilarious. City Group

430
00:26:47.079 --> 00:26:52.319
<v Speaker 2>accidentally credited a client's account with are you ready eighty

431
00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:59.000
<v Speaker 2>one trillion dollars last April? Can you imagine waking up

432
00:26:59.039 --> 00:27:01.440
<v Speaker 2>and you got eighty one billion dollars in a year account?

433
00:27:01.960 --> 00:27:04.920
<v Speaker 2>Financial Times report of the incident that went unreported until now.

434
00:27:04.960 --> 00:27:08.599
<v Speaker 2>It happened last April. They mistakenly entered an internal transfer

435
00:27:08.640 --> 00:27:11.319
<v Speaker 2>of eighty one trillion dollars into a client account when

436
00:27:11.319 --> 00:27:17.799
<v Speaker 2>the intended amount was two hundred and eighty dollars. Actually

437
00:27:17.799 --> 00:27:20.400
<v Speaker 2>it was April of twenty twenty two, so that it

438
00:27:20.480 --> 00:27:24.440
<v Speaker 2>managed to slip through the banks in initial checks and balances.

439
00:27:24.440 --> 00:27:26.519
<v Speaker 2>Accord to the internal account of the event seen by

440
00:27:26.599 --> 00:27:29.319
<v Speaker 2>Financial Times as well as two people familiar with the matter,

441
00:27:29.400 --> 00:27:33.279
<v Speaker 2>eighty one trillion dollar error missed by both the payment

442
00:27:33.359 --> 00:27:36.759
<v Speaker 2>employee responsible for the transaction and a second official task

443
00:27:36.839 --> 00:27:39.960
<v Speaker 2>with verifying it before being approved or processing the following

444
00:27:40.000 --> 00:27:44.400
<v Speaker 2>business day wasn't until ninety minutes after the payment posted

445
00:27:44.440 --> 00:27:47.400

500
00:30:54.279 --> 00:30:56.000
<v Speaker 2>I got Pete on the line. Pete, thanks for calling

501
00:30:56.039 --> 00:30:57.160
<v Speaker 2>this morning. Welcome to the show.

502
00:30:58.240 --> 00:31:02.079
<v Speaker 13>Thanks Brian heys Linsky. I listen to Tucker. He said

503
00:31:02.079 --> 00:31:06.640
<v Speaker 13>that the Lensky has been black markets selling our ammunition

504
00:31:07.240 --> 00:31:11.000
<v Speaker 13>and equipment all over the black market around the world,

505
00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:14.480
<v Speaker 13>and that even cartels in Mexico have some of our

506
00:31:15.920 --> 00:31:20.000
<v Speaker 13>our equipment and ammunition to use against US as well

507
00:31:20.039 --> 00:31:23.319
<v Speaker 13>as terrorist groups and usually Tucker's pretty spot off.

508
00:31:23.400 --> 00:31:25.200
<v Speaker 2>Well, and that's exactly what I was going to say.

509
00:31:25.240 --> 00:31:28.759
<v Speaker 2>I have no idea whether or not Tucker Carlson is right,

510
00:31:28.839 --> 00:31:32.720
<v Speaker 2>but he usually is a very well informed guy, So

511
00:31:32.920 --> 00:31:34.880
<v Speaker 2>I doubt he would go out on a ledge and

512
00:31:34.920 --> 00:31:37.920
<v Speaker 2>make things up and say it out loud. So and

513
00:31:38.000 --> 00:31:40.960
<v Speaker 2>it wouldn't wouldn't shock me a bit, Pete, honestly wouldn't

514
00:31:40.960 --> 00:31:41.519
<v Speaker 2>trying to.

515
00:31:41.480 --> 00:31:44.400
<v Speaker 13>Find out if the Linsey got a Swiss Bank account.

516
00:31:44.039 --> 00:31:52.319
<v Speaker 2>Somewhere plural accounts, plural. Yeah, I'm sure he's taken well,

517
00:31:52.720 --> 00:31:56.119
<v Speaker 2>taking care of himself financially for whatever future he has

518
00:31:56.119 --> 00:31:59.200
<v Speaker 2>in store for him. Plus, you know he suspended elections.

519
00:31:59.519 --> 00:32:02.200
<v Speaker 2>You know, talk about people need defending democracy. We need

520
00:32:02.200 --> 00:32:05.240
<v Speaker 2>to defend democracy. We needed Well, you know why don't

521
00:32:05.279 --> 00:32:08.119
<v Speaker 2>have an election? Well it's a war torn region. We

522
00:32:08.160 --> 00:32:10.559
<v Speaker 2>can't have an election in a war torn region. Okay,

523

<v Speaker 2>just another fun factor throw into the mix when you're

524

595
00:36:38.920 --> 00:36:41.400
<v Speaker 2>two to three Talk Town five fifty on AT and

596
00:36:41.440 --> 00:36:47.599
<v Speaker 2>T phone, kind of move away from my rant on Ukraine. Boy,

597
00:36:47.639 --> 00:36:49.480
<v Speaker 2>that had me going this morning in the five o'clock hour.

598
00:36:49.480 --> 00:36:51.360
<v Speaker 2>If you're just tuning in, you feel free to find

599
00:36:51.400 --> 00:36:53.760
<v Speaker 2>the podcast to that hour on fifty five car Ze

600
00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:58.400
<v Speaker 2>dot com. Anyhow, just just the ultimate point. It's like

601
00:36:58.440 --> 00:37:01.519
<v Speaker 2>the entire world keeps looking to us, keeps looking to us.

602
00:37:01.559 --> 00:37:05.159
<v Speaker 2>They want to negotiate a peace. What does that mean? What?

603
00:37:05.159 --> 00:37:05.360
<v Speaker 6>What?

604
00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:05.480
<v Speaker 10>What?

605
00:37:05.519 --> 00:37:08.239
<v Speaker 2>When? When France and in the UK want to take

606
00:37:08.280 --> 00:37:10.360
<v Speaker 2>over the peace negotiation they talk about we need a piece,

607
00:37:10.400 --> 00:37:14.440
<v Speaker 2>need a piece that the United States can buy into.

608
00:37:16.000 --> 00:37:19.719
<v Speaker 2>Why why us? I think the point ultimately is I

609
00:37:19.800 --> 00:37:23.639
<v Speaker 2>made it. Not going into more glorious rants. They've all

610
00:37:23.639 --> 00:37:29.440
<v Speaker 2>got their hand in our pocket and we're broke, painfully,

611
00:37:29.760 --> 00:37:34.960
<v Speaker 2>painfully broke. Anyway, I put a post on the idea

612
00:37:34.960 --> 00:37:37.400
<v Speaker 2>on Facebook, and I's surprised that many people responded to it.

613
00:37:37.559 --> 00:37:41.920
<v Speaker 2>Have you been seeing these demands for boycotts and don't

614
00:37:41.960 --> 00:37:46.239
<v Speaker 2>buy anything? I guess in the name of I don't know,

615
00:37:46.320 --> 00:37:49.159
<v Speaker 2>some sort of diversity equity inclusions, so sort of left

616
00:37:49.159 --> 00:37:55.159
<v Speaker 2>wing ideologically driven concept that no, do not shop at

617
00:37:55.199 --> 00:37:57.760
<v Speaker 2>fill in the blank store or do not buy anything

618
00:37:57.880 --> 00:38:01.119
<v Speaker 2>on some given day. Let's stop the onomy from functioning

619
00:38:01.159 --> 00:38:06.079
<v Speaker 2>and show them the power of the people. And then

620
00:38:06.239 --> 00:38:10.039
<v Speaker 2>the next day comes and then you go out and

621
00:38:10.079 --> 00:38:14.599
<v Speaker 2>buy the stuff that you didn't buy the prior day.

622
00:38:15.519 --> 00:38:19.360
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's kind of the reality of that. In

623
00:38:19.440 --> 00:38:23.440
<v Speaker 2>my parallel was it's like a snow day. You know,

624
00:38:23.480 --> 00:38:25.760
<v Speaker 2>the roads are closed, so you can't make it out

625
00:38:25.800 --> 00:38:28.679
<v Speaker 2>to Kroger to buy your milk. You missed the opportunity

626
00:38:28.719 --> 00:38:31.079
<v Speaker 2>to get ahead of the storm, so you're stuck at home.

627
00:38:31.400 --> 00:38:35.039
<v Speaker 2>You're not out participating in economic activity because well, the

628
00:38:35.199 --> 00:38:37.840
<v Speaker 2>roads are closed, or you're afraid of crashing your car

629
00:38:37.960 --> 00:38:42.239
<v Speaker 2>because the roads are slick. Then what do you do?

630
00:38:42.280 --> 00:38:43.800
<v Speaker 2>As soon as the roads are clear, you get in

631
00:38:43.840 --> 00:38:45.320
<v Speaker 2>your car and you go out and you buy something.

632
00:38:48.360 --> 00:38:51.039
<v Speaker 2>There's no overall economic impact. The only way to have

633
00:38:51.079 --> 00:38:53.960
<v Speaker 2>an economic economic impact along the lines of what they

634
00:38:53.960 --> 00:38:56.480
<v Speaker 2>suggest is going to happen is if you just commit

635
00:38:56.599 --> 00:38:59.840
<v Speaker 2>to quit buying period. Done over with. I'm not buying

636
00:39:00.039 --> 00:39:04.480
<v Speaker 2>anything anymore. And how would that serve society? Your friends

637
00:39:04.480 --> 00:39:06.480
<v Speaker 2>and neighbors who are in the you know, are getting

638
00:39:06.480 --> 00:39:10.280
<v Speaker 2>a paycheck related to an economic activity, which we all do.

639
00:39:11.760 --> 00:39:19.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. It's just there's some idiots out there, truly, truly,

640
00:39:21.639 --> 00:39:25.800
<v Speaker 2>and so I turn to Maine because Joe had a

641
00:39:25.840 --> 00:39:27.960
<v Speaker 2>stack of training. Is what I'm calling it this morning.

642
00:39:28.960 --> 00:39:33.079
<v Speaker 2>It's all these transgender athletes winning and competing against women

643
00:39:33.239 --> 00:39:36.679
<v Speaker 2>and in the name of defending women's rights. It is

644
00:39:36.800 --> 00:39:40.800
<v Speaker 2>indeed madness. Madness, Main's transgender madness. According to the editorial

645
00:39:40.800 --> 00:39:42.559
<v Speaker 2>board of the Wall Street Journals, pretty much summing up

646
00:39:42.599 --> 00:39:48.000
<v Speaker 2>everything I feel about this. Democrats want to know how

647
00:39:48.079 --> 00:39:50.719
<v Speaker 2>so many voters abandoned them in November. They could take a

648
00:39:50.760 --> 00:39:53.599
<v Speaker 2>gander at the progressive melt down in Maine, and I

649
00:39:53.639 --> 00:39:59.480
<v Speaker 2>honestly am appalled at what they did in Maine. Last Tuesday,

650
00:39:59.559 --> 00:40:04.360
<v Speaker 2>Maine House Representative voted to censure Republican representative Laurel Libby

651
00:40:05.000 --> 00:40:09.079
<v Speaker 2>for posting photos of a transgender high school athlete on Facebook.

652
00:40:09.599 --> 00:40:15.360
<v Speaker 2>The transgender athlete competed in boys track and field, then

653
00:40:15.440 --> 00:40:18.239
<v Speaker 2>switched over to competing the girls pole art vault this

654
00:40:18.360 --> 00:40:24.119
<v Speaker 2>year and won the Class B state championship. So Libby,

655
00:40:24.760 --> 00:40:28.320
<v Speaker 2>in defensive women out there in the world, said this

656
00:40:28.400 --> 00:40:31.159
<v Speaker 2>is outrageous and unfair to the many female athletes who

657
00:40:31.239 --> 00:40:38.239
<v Speaker 2>work every day to succeed in the respective sports. So

658
00:40:38.920 --> 00:40:42.320
<v Speaker 2>the progressives have a meltdown. They voted seventy five to

659
00:40:42.360 --> 00:40:47.599
<v Speaker 2>seventy to formally reprimand this elected official for speaking her

660
00:40:47.679 --> 00:40:50.039
<v Speaker 2>mind and exercising her right to free speech, which is

661
00:40:50.079 --> 00:40:52.280
<v Speaker 2>guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States, and I'm

662
00:40:52.280 --> 00:40:55.960
<v Speaker 2>willing to bet also embodied in Maine's own constitution, although

663
00:40:56.000 --> 00:40:57.760
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that for a fact, I think every

664
00:40:57.760 --> 00:41:01.519
<v Speaker 2>state has that. The censor mean. This is what it means.

665
00:41:01.800 --> 00:41:09.760
<v Speaker 2>She isn't allowed to either speak or vote. She's not

666
00:41:09.880 --> 00:41:15.079
<v Speaker 2>allowed to represent her constituents unless she issues an apology,

667
00:41:15.599 --> 00:41:19.159
<v Speaker 2>and she said she's not going to do that. Under

668
00:41:19.159 --> 00:41:22.199
<v Speaker 2>the main constitution, expelling a member requires two thirds majority,

669
00:41:22.239 --> 00:41:24.679
<v Speaker 2>but state lawmakers have used the center as a backdoor

670
00:41:24.760 --> 00:41:28.119
<v Speaker 2>to silence Miss Libby by a simple majority vote. Trying

671
00:41:28.119 --> 00:41:29.880
<v Speaker 2>to speak in her own defense during the main House

672
00:41:29.920 --> 00:41:34.480
<v Speaker 2>resolution to censor her representative, Libby repeatedly interrupted by other

673
00:41:34.599 --> 00:41:38.119
<v Speaker 2>members challenging her remarks. My understanding also is that her

674
00:41:38.159 --> 00:41:41.199
<v Speaker 2>microphone was turned off regularly during her efforts to defend

675
00:41:41.199 --> 00:41:45.039
<v Speaker 2>herself in her position, so she posted her remarks on Facebook.

676
00:41:47.039 --> 00:41:50.679
<v Speaker 2>The progressive left claims she was doxing a minor by

677
00:41:50.679 --> 00:41:57.360
<v Speaker 2>posting the photo, stating the obvious, the state champions athlete

678
00:41:57.400 --> 00:42:00.960
<v Speaker 2>has no reasonable expectation of privacy after winning a high

679
00:42:00.960 --> 00:42:04.320
<v Speaker 2>profile championship. Taking pictures of those victories and distributing them

680
00:42:04.559 --> 00:42:08.199
<v Speaker 2>in the press or internet is routine. Happens all the time,

681
00:42:08.440 --> 00:42:10.920
<v Speaker 2>and there is no law prohibiting what Misslibby did, which

682
00:42:10.960 --> 00:42:15.280
<v Speaker 2>is free political speech. Her posts did not attack the

683
00:42:15.360 --> 00:42:18.880
<v Speaker 2>athlete that simply reposted the champion's picture and noted that

684
00:42:18.920 --> 00:42:21.920
<v Speaker 2>the same athlete had placed fifth in the men's competition

685
00:42:22.039 --> 00:42:27.199
<v Speaker 2>in a previous year. Those are statements of fact. Go ahead,

686
00:42:27.280 --> 00:42:30.960
<v Speaker 2>run through your liberal fact checking site. Is the above true? Absolutely,

687
00:42:30.960 --> 00:42:35.320
<v Speaker 2>the above is true. The legislature's censure of Miss libty

688
00:42:35.440 --> 00:42:38.280
<v Speaker 2>also deprives her of the right to vote on legislation,

689
00:42:38.400 --> 00:42:44.559
<v Speaker 2>which ultimately disenfranchises her constituents by denying them representation. Good

690
00:42:44.639 --> 00:42:47.400
<v Speaker 2>point they make. What's to stop the majority party from

691
00:42:47.440 --> 00:42:55.679
<v Speaker 2>centering any problematic lawmaker to make sure legislation passes. Democrats

692
00:42:55.679 --> 00:42:57.719
<v Speaker 2>should be considering whether they really want to go down

693
00:42:57.760 --> 00:43:04.000
<v Speaker 2>the road of regulating posts on social media. Now. For

694
00:43:04.039 --> 00:43:07.159
<v Speaker 2>his part, Trump's executive order on transgender athletes says schools

695
00:43:07.239 --> 00:43:11.079
<v Speaker 2>or education institutions that received Title nine funding cannot deny

696
00:43:11.159 --> 00:43:15.119
<v Speaker 2>women an equal opportunity to participate in sports, noting that

697
00:43:15.239 --> 00:43:20.000
<v Speaker 2>allowing transgender athletes to compete in women in sports is demeaning, unfair,

698
00:43:20.159 --> 00:43:26.920
<v Speaker 2>and dangerous to women and girls. Most recently, Trump confronted

699
00:43:26.960 --> 00:43:29.079
<v Speaker 2>me and Governor Janet Mills at a White House event

700
00:43:29.119 --> 00:43:31.800
<v Speaker 2>over the state's refusal to abide by the executive order.

701
00:43:32.199 --> 00:43:35.679
<v Speaker 2>On Tuesday, Attorney General Pam Bondi warrant officials in California, Maine,

702
00:43:35.679 --> 00:43:37.880
<v Speaker 2>and Minnesota in a letter that they're going to face

703
00:43:37.920 --> 00:43:41.159
<v Speaker 2>consequences they don't comply with federal law. Notably, I guess

704
00:43:41.159 --> 00:43:43.480
<v Speaker 2>the funding is going to be pulled. How about that?

705
00:43:44.760 --> 00:43:46.519
<v Speaker 2>And that happens all the time. And I use as

706
00:43:46.559 --> 00:43:48.639
<v Speaker 2>an illustration what happened to Ohio back when I was

707
00:43:48.679 --> 00:43:51.159
<v Speaker 2>in college. You know, if you don't raise the drinking

708
00:43:51.239 --> 00:43:53.519
<v Speaker 2>age to twenty one, you are not going to get

709
00:43:53.599 --> 00:44:00.320
<v Speaker 2>federal highway dollars. And we capitulated federal money always with

710
00:44:00.320 --> 00:44:03.639
<v Speaker 2>strings attached. Administrations have a change of plans. They want

711
00:44:03.679 --> 00:44:07.199
<v Speaker 2>to they reinterpret Title nine. Title nine protects women, not

712
00:44:07.400 --> 00:44:11.119
<v Speaker 2>transgender men. And if you don't capitulate and follow what

713
00:44:11.159 --> 00:44:13.639
<v Speaker 2>we believe Title nine to say and stand for, then

714
00:44:13.639 --> 00:44:16.360
<v Speaker 2>you're not going to get your at your dollars. Fine,

715
00:44:16.400 --> 00:44:19.519
<v Speaker 2>you can live without them. You can continue your transgender policies.

716
00:44:19.559 --> 00:44:21.639
<v Speaker 2>You just don't. It just doesn't come along with federal funding.

717
00:44:22.480 --> 00:44:25.880
<v Speaker 2>How firmly do you stand on those policies? Can you

718
00:44:25.920 --> 00:44:35.119
<v Speaker 2>live without the funding? Then, the journal concludes the Republicans

719
00:44:35.480 --> 00:44:38.320
<v Speaker 2>prospered politically in twenty twenty four by campaigning on the

720
00:44:38.400 --> 00:44:43.559
<v Speaker 2>unfairness of forcing girls to compete against testosterone loaded transgender athletes.

721
00:44:44.599 --> 00:44:46.960
<v Speaker 2>Now to dodge a debate over the policy, main Democrats

722
00:44:46.960 --> 00:44:50.119
<v Speaker 2>who abuse their power by silencing a duly elected dissenter.

723
00:44:50.519 --> 00:44:55.679
<v Speaker 2>They've learned nothing from the defeat. Amen to that, and

724
00:44:55.760 --> 00:44:59.840
<v Speaker 2>this is so overwhelmingly rejected the idea of allowing men

725
00:44:59.880 --> 00:45:02.800
<v Speaker 2>to compete against women merely because they say, one day,

726
00:45:02.840 --> 00:45:07.239
<v Speaker 2>wake up and say I'm a gal. We need to

727
00:45:07.400 --> 00:45:13.320
<v Speaker 2>just concede to that. We need to just say, Okay,

728
00:45:13.880 --> 00:45:16.159
<v Speaker 2>you're a girl, and that means you're allowed to compete

729
00:45:16.199 --> 00:45:20.840
<v Speaker 2>against these other girls, biological women, even though you're six

730
00:45:20.880 --> 00:45:23.960
<v Speaker 2>too and weigh two hundred plus pounds. Is that right?

731
00:45:24.159 --> 00:45:25.559
<v Speaker 2>Is it fair? Is it? Is it?

732
00:45:26.400 --> 00:45:26.559
<v Speaker 10>No?

733
00:45:28.480 --> 00:45:32.159
<v Speaker 2>And the vast majority of people are overwhelmingly against it.

734
00:45:32.239 --> 00:45:34.960
<v Speaker 2>And I'm sure the citizen remain feels the same way.

735
00:45:35.119 --> 00:45:37.360
<v Speaker 2>And if you're one of her constituents, you don't have

736
00:45:37.360 --> 00:45:47.199
<v Speaker 2>a representation anymore. They've just unplugged the First Amendment. This

737
00:45:47.360 --> 00:45:49.559
<v Speaker 2>is the crazy world we live in, folks, and it

738
00:45:49.679 --> 00:45:56.039

797
00:48:55.880 --> 00:48:58.440
<v Speaker 2>At the same time, I love when we have more

798
00:48:58.480 --> 00:49:02.480
<v Speaker 2>and more backlash to the climate agenda. This woke religion

799
00:49:03.199 --> 00:49:07.079
<v Speaker 2>that is the climate agenda. Steep increases Washington Time's reporting

800
00:49:07.119 --> 00:49:13.400
<v Speaker 2>on this. Thank you, Susan Friccio. Apparently, high energy bills

801
00:49:13.480 --> 00:49:17.039
<v Speaker 2>leading customers in underscore the word democratic led states where

802
00:49:17.039 --> 00:49:21.199
<v Speaker 2>they are pursuing zero carbon emissions and harming their own

803
00:49:21.239 --> 00:49:25.960
<v Speaker 2>economies are now leading the citizenry to question renewable energy

804
00:49:26.000 --> 00:49:31.760
<v Speaker 2>policies that have failed to deliver more reliable, less expensive electricity.

805
00:49:31.800 --> 00:49:35.400
<v Speaker 2>Price hikes in New Jersey, Maryland, Massachusetts, among other states

806
00:49:35.400 --> 00:49:39.679
<v Speaker 2>of left consumers fuming. She writes, government leaders scrambling to

807
00:49:39.760 --> 00:49:42.360
<v Speaker 2>provide relief as voters threatened to turn against them at

808
00:49:42.360 --> 00:49:45.760
<v Speaker 2>the polls for implementing policies primarily blamed for the spike.

809
00:49:45.800 --> 00:49:48.199
<v Speaker 2>And it is only the policies that are causing this.

810
00:49:49.719 --> 00:49:54.800
<v Speaker 2>They've done this to themselves intentionally, Executive director of Massachusetts

811
00:49:54.800 --> 00:49:57.239
<v Speaker 2>Fiscal Alliance. It feels like all of a sudden people

812
00:49:57.280 --> 00:49:59.360
<v Speaker 2>woke up. I think over time, yes, the blame will

813
00:49:59.400 --> 00:50:01.639
<v Speaker 2>be squarely on a elected leaders, and who else would

814
00:50:01.639 --> 00:50:02.000
<v Speaker 2>it lie?

815
00:50:02.039 --> 00:50:02.119
<v Speaker 6>In?

816
00:50:04.320 --> 00:50:08.199
<v Speaker 2>Democrats seeking to eliminate all greenhouse gas emissions in Massachusetts

817
00:50:08.239 --> 00:50:12.159
<v Speaker 2>by twenty fifty. A program encouraging residents to convert from

818
00:50:12.199 --> 00:50:15.639
<v Speaker 2>natural gas to electric heat has significantly increased most monthly

819
00:50:15.760 --> 00:50:19.800
<v Speaker 2>energy bills, in many cases by double or more, whittling

820
00:50:19.840 --> 00:50:21.920
<v Speaker 2>away your spending power. And I think that's one of

821
00:50:21.960 --> 00:50:25.760
<v Speaker 2>the farious elements behind all this. One resident Scott O'Donnell's

822
00:50:25.760 --> 00:50:29.159
<v Speaker 2>electric bill for his eleven hundred square foot ranch home

823
00:50:29.199 --> 00:50:33.599
<v Speaker 2>has nearly doubled over the last year. Six hundred and

824
00:50:33.760 --> 00:50:39.400
<v Speaker 2>eighty five dollars bill for February for eleven hundred square

825
00:50:39.440 --> 00:50:43.000
<v Speaker 2>feet two hundred and ninety bucks for heat, and get

826
00:50:43.039 --> 00:50:46.239
<v Speaker 2>a load of this three hundred and ninety five dollars

827
00:50:46.239 --> 00:50:50.599
<v Speaker 2>for what they call delivery charge, which includes a recently

828
00:50:50.679 --> 00:50:55.719
<v Speaker 2>raised feed of funded program called Mass Save, which gives

829
00:50:55.800 --> 00:50:59.159
<v Speaker 2>rebates to residents who convert to electric powered heat. The

830
00:50:59.239 --> 00:51:05.400
<v Speaker 2>cost passed along to rate payers who I guess converted

831
00:51:05.440 --> 00:51:13.000
<v Speaker 2>electric heat. Work the math out on that one. Governor

832
00:51:13.000 --> 00:51:17.599
<v Speaker 2>of Mara, Healey, of course Democrat, recently approved a twenty

833
00:51:17.800 --> 00:51:21.480
<v Speaker 2>five percent budget increase for the Mass Saved program, prioritizing

834
00:51:21.480 --> 00:51:23.760
<v Speaker 2>the elimination of all fossil fuel heating in the state.

835
00:51:24.440 --> 00:51:28.000
<v Speaker 2>Electric companies increased the fee to pay for the expanded program,

836
00:51:28.039 --> 00:51:30.559
<v Speaker 2>adding that the electricity prices that were already among the

837
00:51:30.639 --> 00:51:36.760
<v Speaker 2>highest in the nation. The state has it rejected installing

838
00:51:36.840 --> 00:51:40.360
<v Speaker 2>natural gas pipelines and new fossil fuel or nuclear power plants.

839
00:51:40.559 --> 00:51:44.000
<v Speaker 2>Get a load of this, rather than rely on their

840
00:51:44.039 --> 00:51:48.360
<v Speaker 2>own pipelines and their own source of fossil fuel, which

841
00:51:48.360 --> 00:51:51.599
<v Speaker 2>apparently they have because someone tried to get the power

842
00:51:51.639 --> 00:51:55.719
<v Speaker 2>of the pipelines installed that was rejected. It imports most

843
00:51:55.760 --> 00:51:59.079
<v Speaker 2>of its energy, including liquefied natural gas, at a much

844
00:51:59.159 --> 00:52:03.119
<v Speaker 2>higher cost, from Canada, Norway and other countries. Massachusetts is

845
00:52:03.159 --> 00:52:08.000
<v Speaker 2>buying natural gas from Canada, Norway and other countries, which

846
00:52:08.199 --> 00:52:10.079
<v Speaker 2>doesn't make any sense to me from a logic and

847
00:52:10.079 --> 00:52:13.079
<v Speaker 2>reason standpoint, because that means they're producing carbon, which they

848
00:52:13.079 --> 00:52:17.320
<v Speaker 2>want to be carbon neutral. Go ahead, working out in

849
00:52:17.360 --> 00:52:20.840
<v Speaker 2>your mind. They say a third of the state's energy

850
00:52:20.840 --> 00:52:24.320
<v Speaker 2>comes from renewable sources, mostly solar. Major natural gas power

851
00:52:24.320 --> 00:52:27.719
<v Speaker 2>plant shuddered in May, and the only state energy projects

852
00:52:27.760 --> 00:52:31.119
<v Speaker 2>planned involve renewables, which of course don't produce a lot

853
00:52:31.159 --> 00:52:34.280
<v Speaker 2>of electricity and don't work like solar when it's a

854
00:52:34.400 --> 00:52:38.280
<v Speaker 2>cloudy outside. Kind of harsh Winners in New England as well,

855
00:52:40.000 --> 00:52:43.920
<v Speaker 2>local television news interview the governor. She did not respond

856
00:52:44.000 --> 00:52:46.400
<v Speaker 2>to an inquiry parenthetically from the Washington Times, but she

857
00:52:46.400 --> 00:52:48.599
<v Speaker 2>did speak with local news that her administration is not

858
00:52:48.719 --> 00:52:56.320
<v Speaker 2>to blame for the higher costs. Really, just because she

859
00:52:56.440 --> 00:52:59.039
<v Speaker 2>says it doesn't mean people aren't smart enough to figure

860
00:52:59.079 --> 00:53:02.000
<v Speaker 2>it out, is exactly her and the Democrats fault for

861
00:53:02.000 --> 00:53:05.000
<v Speaker 2>implementing the policies which will cause their electricity bills to double.

862
00:53:06.880 --> 00:53:09.880
<v Speaker 2>So she asked the Department of Public Utilities to take

863
00:53:10.000 --> 00:53:13.159
<v Speaker 2>a look at the rates and do anything and everything

864
00:53:13.239 --> 00:53:15.519
<v Speaker 2>we can as a state to lower heating bills. That's

865
00:53:15.519 --> 00:53:19.440
<v Speaker 2>a quote from her. Well, look inwardly, get rid of

866
00:53:19.480 --> 00:53:21.840
<v Speaker 2>your stupid policies which are directly related to causing the

867
00:53:21.960 --> 00:53:25.800
<v Speaker 2>energy prices to go through the roof. She ordered energy

868
00:53:25.800 --> 00:53:28.559
<v Speaker 2>companies to cut rates by at least five percent in March,

869
00:53:29.119 --> 00:53:35.559
<v Speaker 2>saving consumers and average about fifteen bucks a month. Talk

870
00:53:35.599 --> 00:53:37.360
<v Speaker 2>to the guy with the eleven hundred square foot ranch

871
00:53:37.400 --> 00:53:41.159
<v Speaker 2>and see if that makes a difference in his world.

872
00:53:41.679 --> 00:53:44.599
<v Speaker 2>Governor and other state officials say eliminating fossil fuel in

873
00:53:44.599 --> 00:53:47.159
<v Speaker 2>the electric grid will provide cleaner air and reduce the

874
00:53:47.199 --> 00:53:49.920
<v Speaker 2>impact of climate change, which they say is causing adverse

875
00:53:49.960 --> 00:53:53.239
<v Speaker 2>weather events. Okay, you're on your own, Massachusetts. What are

876
00:53:53.239 --> 00:53:56.880
<v Speaker 2>the surrounding states doing? Don't we all breathe the same air?

877
00:53:57.039 --> 00:54:01.039
<v Speaker 2>Isn't the wind blowing from the west across our country,

878
00:54:01.519 --> 00:54:04.800
<v Speaker 2>notably coming from China where they're belching out carbon and

879
00:54:04.920 --> 00:54:08.920
<v Speaker 2>pollution every single day with their every day going online,

880
00:54:08.960 --> 00:54:14.239
<v Speaker 2>new coal fired plants. That's yes, is the answer rhetorical question.

881
00:54:17.679 --> 00:54:20.440
<v Speaker 2>According to Ray Kander, Deputy government affairs officer for the

882
00:54:20.480 --> 00:54:24.440
<v Speaker 2>New Jersey Business and Industry Association, we have continuously warned

883
00:54:24.440 --> 00:54:29.119
<v Speaker 2>the creating policies that set artificial deadlines for actions and

884
00:54:29.119 --> 00:54:32.320
<v Speaker 2>discouraging new generation from sources that include natural gas, nuclear,

885
00:54:32.320 --> 00:54:34.719
<v Speaker 2>as well as other renewables will result in much higher

886
00:54:34.800 --> 00:54:37.920
<v Speaker 2>energy prices for New Jersey residents and businesses. That's over

887
00:54:37.960 --> 00:54:40.880
<v Speaker 2>in New Jersey where they're bracing for a twenty percent

888
00:54:41.000 --> 00:54:46.679
<v Speaker 2>increase this summer based on decarbonization policies that have led

889
00:54:46.719 --> 00:54:50.719
<v Speaker 2>to reduce power supply economics, folks, laws of supply and

890
00:54:50.760 --> 00:54:58.039
<v Speaker 2>demand less electricity more expensive. Big increase caused in part

891
00:54:58.079 --> 00:55:00.920
<v Speaker 2>by the state's ambitious plans removed fossil fuels from the

892
00:55:00.920 --> 00:55:04.679
<v Speaker 2>electric grid by shutting down coal and oiled fire plants,

893
00:55:05.079 --> 00:55:09.960
<v Speaker 2>as well as state approved rising charges in utility customers

894
00:55:10.480 --> 00:55:16.960
<v Speaker 2>bills to fund Maryland's energy efficient upgrades. They're whittling away

895
00:55:17.000 --> 00:55:20.039
<v Speaker 2>you're spending power, folks. It's all artificial and it's all

896
00:55:20.119 --> 00:55:22.400
<v Speaker 2>chasing your tail. Again, going back to the fact that

897
00:55:22.440 --> 00:55:24.960
<v Speaker 2>we live on a globe where the air is circulated globally.

898
00:55:25.320 --> 00:55:27.760
<v Speaker 2>See what India's doing, See what Turkey's doing, see what

899
00:55:27.880 --> 00:55:30.400
<v Speaker 2>Rush is doing, see what China's doing, and look at

900
00:55:30.480 --> 00:55:33.599
<v Speaker 2>us acting like idiots thinking that one action by one

901
00:55:33.800 --> 00:55:36.639
<v Speaker 2>single state is going to have an impact on the climate.

902
00:55:37.320 --> 00:55:41.639
<v Speaker 2>If you believe that carbon plant food is a bad thing.

903
00:55:42.519 --> 00:55:44.360
<v Speaker 2>Six twenty eight, Brian, if you don't mind holding I

904

00:56:02.480 --> 00:56:06.679
<v Speaker 2>with a family member that knows everything there is to

912
00:56:06.679 --> 00:56:08.920
<v Speaker 2>know about the equipment they're selling and they sell inferior

913
00:56:08.960 --> 00:56:11.320
<v Speaker 2>equipment over the box stores and don't go down that road.

914
00:56:11.400 --> 00:56:13.719
<v Speaker 2>I went and made the mistake of doing that myself

915
00:56:14.000 --> 00:56:15.920
<v Speaker 2>and had to return the push mower that I bought

916
00:56:15.960 --> 00:56:18.360
<v Speaker 2>there because it conked out the first time I used it.

917

937
00:57:15.159 --> 00:57:17.119
<v Speaker 2>to the phones. I'm gonna go. Brian was kind enough

938
00:57:17.119 --> 00:57:18.840
<v Speaker 2>to hold over the break. Brian, welcome to the morning,

939
00:57:18.920 --> 00:57:20.480
<v Speaker 2>showing a very happy Monday to you, sir.

940
00:57:21.440 --> 00:57:22.880
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, happy Monday, good morning.

941
00:57:23.920 --> 00:57:24.119
<v Speaker 10>Yep.

942
00:57:24.679 --> 00:57:28.320
<v Speaker 8>The lady in Maine that they centered. If I was her,

943
00:57:28.400 --> 00:57:32.079
<v Speaker 8>I absolutely would apologize. I'm so sorry that the truth

944
00:57:32.119 --> 00:57:33.000
<v Speaker 8>hurts your feelings.

945
00:57:36.320 --> 00:57:37.480
<v Speaker 2>That's one way to do it.

946
00:57:38.800 --> 00:57:39.039
<v Speaker 6>Yep.

947
00:57:39.119 --> 00:57:42.280
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I'm appalled at it that they would do that.

948
00:57:42.719 --> 00:57:44.920
<v Speaker 2>Democrats are and they want to fall on the sword.

949
00:57:45.000 --> 00:57:47.679
<v Speaker 2>I guess it's a good thing. I mean, word gets out.

950
00:57:47.760 --> 00:57:52.000
<v Speaker 2>This is something that most people overwhelmingly reject, and they're

951
00:57:52.039 --> 00:57:54.920
<v Speaker 2>such a tiny, tiny segment of the population that even

952
00:57:55.000 --> 00:57:57.880
<v Speaker 2>qualifies as transgender, and this is the hill they want

953
00:57:57.880 --> 00:58:01.880
<v Speaker 2>to die on. Okay, watch commit suicide.

954
00:58:01.440 --> 00:58:06.480
<v Speaker 6>Right exactly on corn subsidies.

955
00:58:08.599 --> 00:58:11.599
<v Speaker 2>You're trying to get me all agitated again, Brian, Go ahead.

956
00:58:11.320 --> 00:58:15.920
<v Speaker 8>Well, this one's going to fire you up. So my

957
00:58:16.119 --> 00:58:18.840
<v Speaker 8>family's farm's been in my name for seven or eight

958
00:58:18.920 --> 00:58:22.320
<v Speaker 8>years and there's not been a stitch of corn grown

959
00:58:22.400 --> 00:58:24.840
<v Speaker 8>on it that whole time, and probably for four or

960
00:58:24.880 --> 00:58:27.039
<v Speaker 8>five years before that, there wasn't a stitch of corn

961
00:58:27.079 --> 00:58:30.960
<v Speaker 8>grown on that. But there is a ten acre corn base.

962
00:58:31.360 --> 00:58:33.800
<v Speaker 8>So every year the prices are low, they send me

963
00:58:33.840 --> 00:58:36.159
<v Speaker 8>a form. If I fill it out, then they send

964
00:58:36.159 --> 00:58:39.679
<v Speaker 8>me a check because corn prices were down. Oh jeez,

965
00:58:41.159 --> 00:58:43.559
<v Speaker 8>I don't fill it out anymore because it's just wrong.

966
00:58:43.679 --> 00:58:46.599
<v Speaker 2>I don't prill corn. Well, you're a man of principle then, Brian.

967
00:58:46.719 --> 00:58:50.400
<v Speaker 2>You know it's you got that dangling cared of incenter

968
00:58:50.480 --> 00:58:53.000
<v Speaker 2>to fill the format. You could take the money, but

969
00:58:53.039 --> 00:58:55.519
<v Speaker 2>because you have higher character than that, you say no.

970
00:58:55.760 --> 00:58:58.039
<v Speaker 2>And I have to applaud you for that. Most people

971
00:58:58.320 --> 00:59:01.079
<v Speaker 2>would take advantage of it. And therein lies the problem

972
00:59:01.079 --> 00:59:03.280
<v Speaker 2>with subsidies like that. You know, I have to ask you, Brian,

973
00:59:04.599 --> 00:59:06.599
<v Speaker 2>the reason there's so much corn being grown is because

974
00:59:06.639 --> 00:59:09.039
<v Speaker 2>of subsidies. Don't you think that farmers would grow a

975
00:59:09.119 --> 00:59:13.079
<v Speaker 2>crop that is in demand in lieu of corn if

976
00:59:13.119 --> 00:59:15.760
<v Speaker 2>there weren't corn subsidies, couldn't they grow something that people

977
00:59:16.079 --> 00:59:18.920
<v Speaker 2>out in the world really truly genuinely want and need.

978
00:59:19.039 --> 00:59:23.199
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I just have to ask out loud, because

979
00:59:23.280 --> 00:59:25.679
<v Speaker 2>I'm not a farmer ahead, how we're.

980
00:59:25.559 --> 00:59:28.360
<v Speaker 8>Gonna fill our gas tanks if they don't grow extra corn?

981
00:59:29.000 --> 00:59:31.760
<v Speaker 2>Go back to just using plain old gasoline, which is

982
00:59:31.800 --> 00:59:35.079
<v Speaker 2>better for your internal combustion engine. Lord Almighty, what did

983
00:59:35.079 --> 00:59:38.119
<v Speaker 2>we do before ethanol? Appreciate it?

984
00:59:39.480 --> 00:59:42.360
<v Speaker 10>We just raised trees timber.

985
00:59:43.039 --> 00:59:49.760
<v Speaker 2>Good for you and in demand last time. I Good luck, Brian,

986
00:59:49.960 --> 00:59:54.360
<v Speaker 2>God bless the American farmer, just please quit growing corn

987
00:59:54.559 --> 00:59:56.960
<v Speaker 2>and turning it into corn syrup that ends up in

988
00:59:57.039 --> 01:00:01.159
<v Speaker 2>literally everything we eat. It's bad for us. Stick around.

989
01:00:01.159 --> 01:00:03.199
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna take George's call. George, if we don't mind

990
01:00:03.239 --> 01:00:04.960
<v Speaker 2>holding on, I'll be happy to take your call for

991
01:00:05.000 --> 01:00:06.800
<v Speaker 2>the break here. But I first want to mention chimneycare,

992
01:00:06.880 --> 01:00:12.000
<v Speaker 2>fireplace and stove get a carbon monoxide detector. I don't

993
01:00:12.000 --> 01:00:14.280
<v Speaker 2>think Gene Hackman died of carbon dioxide, at least that's

994
01:00:14.280 --> 01:00:18.159
<v Speaker 2>the initial response. But immediately that's what people suspected. That's

995
01:00:18.159 --> 01:00:20.840
<v Speaker 2>why I'm saying, you know, that's the deadly silent killer.

996
01:00:21.199 --> 01:00:23.159
<v Speaker 2>And if your chimney isn't inspected, you could have a

997
01:00:23.239 --> 01:00:25.880
<v Speaker 2>risk of carbon monoxide problems. That's just one of the

998
01:00:25.960 --> 01:00:29.880
<v Speaker 2>reasons you need inspected. That kreosode builds up for wood burners.

999
01:00:30.239 --> 01:00:32.519
<v Speaker 2>It's the great time take advantage of the chimney care

1004
01:00:42.880 --> 01:00:45.480

<v Speaker 2>Six forty fifty five, Kerr see the talk station. A

1039
01:02:24.719 --> 01:02:26.760
<v Speaker 2>very happy Monday too. You looking forward to Christopher Smith

1040
01:02:26.800 --> 01:02:28.960
<v Speaker 2>minut at seven twenty as I always look forward to

1041
01:02:29.079 --> 01:02:31.599
<v Speaker 2>on a Monday, and I love talking to you. Got

1042
01:02:31.599 --> 01:02:33.840
<v Speaker 2>a couple of callers online, so let's start with George

1043
01:02:33.880 --> 01:02:35.960
<v Speaker 2>has been on hold longest. George, thanks for calling this morning.

1044
01:02:35.960 --> 01:02:36.920
<v Speaker 2>Welcome to the Morning Show.

1045
01:02:39.400 --> 01:02:43.880
<v Speaker 4>And Brian, I was just thinking, uh, with that green

1046
01:02:44.039 --> 01:02:48.960
<v Speaker 4>energy they got all them bird swaters out there tucking

1047
01:02:49.119 --> 01:02:52.440
<v Speaker 4>up care wat's the power out of the wind? I

1048
01:02:52.480 --> 01:02:56.320
<v Speaker 4>wonder what effect that has on the wind patterns. It

1049
01:02:56.559 --> 01:03:00.559
<v Speaker 4>may be contributed to the catch you whether they keep.

1050
01:03:00.480 --> 01:03:05.679
<v Speaker 2>Talking about I don't know. I don't know, but you

1051
01:03:05.719 --> 01:03:10.199
<v Speaker 2>do point out something I'm fundamentally opposed to. Listen, they

1052
01:03:10.239 --> 01:03:14.000
<v Speaker 2>do slaughter birds and bats. And if an oil company

1053
01:03:14.079 --> 01:03:16.880
<v Speaker 2>was responsible for killing any form of wildlife, and they

1054
01:03:16.880 --> 01:03:19.159
<v Speaker 2>have been prosecuted for it by I don't know which

1055
01:03:19.199 --> 01:03:23.159
<v Speaker 2>governmental entity, the EPA, whoever's responsible for such things? Oil companies,

1056
01:03:23.199 --> 01:03:25.320
<v Speaker 2>evil oil companies. Oh my god, there's a bird that

1057
01:03:25.440 --> 01:03:27.519
<v Speaker 2>is covered in oil. You are going to be prosecuted.

1058
01:03:27.559 --> 01:03:30.000
<v Speaker 2>What about the millions and millions of birds and bats

1059
01:03:30.039 --> 01:03:32.400
<v Speaker 2>that are slaughtered every year by the windmills? Aren't the

1060
01:03:32.400 --> 01:03:36.079
<v Speaker 2>power companies responsible for that. We've got a bad enough

1061
01:03:36.119 --> 01:03:39.199
<v Speaker 2>problem with bird flew out there killing millions and millions

1062
01:03:39.199 --> 01:03:41.800
<v Speaker 2>of wild birds. We don't need the help of windmills

1063
01:03:41.800 --> 01:03:44.920
<v Speaker 2>slaughtering more of them. You think the environmentalists would actually

1064
01:03:44.960 --> 01:03:46.760
<v Speaker 2>have a concern about that. And isn't it interesting the

1065
01:03:46.840 --> 01:03:48.800
<v Speaker 2>environmentalists steping up to the plate when it comes to

1066
01:03:48.960 --> 01:03:54.039
<v Speaker 2>whales because the offshore wind developments apparently impact the whales.

1067
01:03:54.400 --> 01:03:56.480
<v Speaker 2>Save the whales. The green and movement was kind of

1068
01:03:56.480 --> 01:03:59.079
<v Speaker 2>built in part on that. Oh no, we don't care

1069
01:03:59.079 --> 01:04:04.000
<v Speaker 2>about the whales because as we're generating electricity with offshore windmills,

1070
01:04:04.679 --> 01:04:06.719
<v Speaker 2>it's the humming and the noise that's created by the

1071
01:04:06.719 --> 01:04:10.960
<v Speaker 2>windmills offshore that drives the whales apparently crazy. So yeah,

1072
01:04:11.960 --> 01:04:16.239
<v Speaker 2>you can't reconcile the two positions at all at all.

1073
01:04:16.719 --> 01:04:19.119
<v Speaker 2>Appreciate the college, George, and see what New Hampshire Gary's got.

1074
01:04:19.119 --> 01:04:21.320
<v Speaker 2>We'll give it another shot, New Hampshire Garry. Let's try again.

1075
01:04:22.719 --> 01:04:25.639
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, sorry about that. Brian had my mute on. Hey,

1076
01:04:26.360 --> 01:04:28.360
<v Speaker 10>just tell you a little bit of history. I like

1077
01:04:28.480 --> 01:04:32.880
<v Speaker 10>to read history. One of the terms that they used

1078
01:04:32.880 --> 01:04:36.960
<v Speaker 10>back in World War One amongst the elites for starting

1079
01:04:37.000 --> 01:04:41.079
<v Speaker 10>World War One was called societal hygiene. It was a

1080
01:04:41.119 --> 01:04:44.119
<v Speaker 10>way that they could make money by the military industrial

1081
01:04:44.440 --> 01:04:47.599
<v Speaker 10>complex while they believed that they could get rid of

1082
01:04:48.039 --> 01:04:53.159
<v Speaker 10>the lower class or the unwanted or the unproductive in

1083
01:04:53.199 --> 01:04:56.880
<v Speaker 10>their societies. You want to talk about really six stuff.

1084
01:04:57.840 --> 01:05:01.519
<v Speaker 10>The more things change, the more they remained. The Europe's

1085
01:05:01.559 --> 01:05:04.360
<v Speaker 10>that war. They're going to start World War three. We're

1086
01:05:04.360 --> 01:05:07.159
<v Speaker 10>going to have to bear them out, you know, same old,

1087
01:05:07.280 --> 01:05:10.519
<v Speaker 10>same old stuff. As far as the Green Agenda, I

1088
01:05:10.519 --> 01:05:15.079
<v Speaker 10>can tell you. Did you see that story up here

1089
01:05:15.119 --> 01:05:18.519
<v Speaker 10>about Vermont where actually Vance in his family had to

1090
01:05:18.519 --> 01:05:19.760
<v Speaker 10>go into hiding.

1091
01:05:21.360 --> 01:05:23.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they're on a skiing trip and I guess you

1092
01:05:23.039 --> 01:05:25.440
<v Speaker 2>got attacked by protesters.

1093
01:05:25.719 --> 01:05:29.960
<v Speaker 10>Do you want to see the Uh, there's a big line.

1094
01:05:29.960 --> 01:05:32.679
<v Speaker 10>It shows how many of them over there. It's like

1095
01:05:32.760 --> 01:05:38.440
<v Speaker 10>the nineteen sixties. Vermont's actually a beautiful, wealthy state, but

1096
01:05:38.880 --> 01:05:42.760
<v Speaker 10>they live on a different plane, a different planet, even

1097
01:05:43.119 --> 01:05:47.519
<v Speaker 10>more so than New Hampshire. And they're they're they're violent.

1098
01:05:47.639 --> 01:05:51.039
<v Speaker 10>You know. Of course love means love has no hate here.

1099
01:05:51.400 --> 01:05:53.960
<v Speaker 10>All the signs say right. But if you get in

1100
01:05:54.000 --> 01:05:56.239
<v Speaker 10>their way, buddy, just they'll show you what height is.

1101
01:05:56.760 --> 01:05:59.239
<v Speaker 10>And if you see it, they're just going down the road.

1102
01:05:59.559 --> 01:06:04.039
<v Speaker 10>And everybody had the Ukrainian flag, the gay Pride flag

1103
01:06:04.599 --> 01:06:08.679
<v Speaker 10>and the Green Agenda, and I can't help. But the thing,

1104
01:06:09.079 --> 01:06:11.920
<v Speaker 10>none of these people would be willing to go fight

1105
01:06:12.039 --> 01:06:15.199
<v Speaker 10>for Ukraine, but they want to throw them. No. No,

1106
01:06:15.960 --> 01:06:19.199
<v Speaker 10>same thing with the Green Agenda. They're making just as

1107
01:06:19.320 --> 01:06:23.000
<v Speaker 10>much money off the Green Agenda with their loans and

1108
01:06:23.079 --> 01:06:27.440
<v Speaker 10>allocations through their buddies and all the grants, just like

1109
01:06:27.519 --> 01:06:31.000
<v Speaker 10>that twelve billion dollar grant for the solar farm down

1110
01:06:31.000 --> 01:06:31.920
<v Speaker 10>in Texas.

1111
01:06:32.119 --> 01:06:32.519
<v Speaker 2>You know that.

1112
01:06:32.960 --> 01:06:35.159
<v Speaker 10>I think it was Obama put in And then they

1113
01:06:35.199 --> 01:06:39.039
<v Speaker 10>had a hailstorm. Yeah, that didn't work out, you know,

1114
01:06:39.360 --> 01:06:43.920
<v Speaker 10>twelve billion dollars later, right in a hailstorm, which nobody

1115
01:06:43.960 --> 01:06:47.599
<v Speaker 10>even did it. How about an environmental impact all that land?

1116
01:06:47.639 --> 01:06:51.079
<v Speaker 10>Now they're all busted glass, right, and it's not like,

1117
01:06:51.320 --> 01:06:54.239
<v Speaker 10>you know, if you live down in Texas, you know

1118
01:06:54.360 --> 01:06:56.679
<v Speaker 10>you're going to have hailstorm. But they did it anyhow.

1119
01:06:56.880 --> 01:06:59.360
<v Speaker 10>But now the company's bankcruff felt they're going to twelve

1120
01:06:59.440 --> 01:07:01.440
<v Speaker 10>billion billion dollars.

1121
01:07:01.719 --> 01:07:07.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's well, you have sort of linked two different things.

1122
01:07:07.360 --> 01:07:10.719
<v Speaker 2>One on one hand, you got the military industrial complex,

1123
01:07:10.760 --> 01:07:13.400
<v Speaker 2>which is the one that benefits mostly from the ongoing

1124
01:07:13.440 --> 01:07:16.679
<v Speaker 2>conflict between Russia and Ukraine, which, as you heard Sean

1125
01:07:16.719 --> 01:07:18.559
<v Speaker 2>Hannity say along the lines of what I was ranting

1126
01:07:18.559 --> 01:07:22.000
<v Speaker 2>about in the five o'clock hour, Russia without US using

1127
01:07:22.000 --> 01:07:25.400
<v Speaker 2>it as a proxy war would have kicked Ukraine's butt.

1128
01:07:25.440 --> 01:07:28.119
<v Speaker 2>By now, We're to run over the entire country. So

1129
01:07:28.159 --> 01:07:30.400
<v Speaker 2>the only thing that's keeping them alive is dollars from

1130
01:07:30.400 --> 01:07:33.239
<v Speaker 2>the United States, and that's why I was ranting this morning,

1131
01:07:33.400 --> 01:07:34.760
<v Speaker 2>what in the hell do we have to do with it?

1132
01:07:35.480 --> 01:07:37.679
<v Speaker 2>I love this post by Ken Blackwell. It's a picture

1133
01:07:37.719 --> 01:07:40.440
<v Speaker 2>of Zelensky with the caption, Remember when I'd come to

1134
01:07:40.519 --> 01:07:42.639
<v Speaker 2>the US and remind the president of all the dirt

1135
01:07:42.679 --> 01:07:44.280
<v Speaker 2>I had on his son and leave with a bundle

1136
01:07:44.280 --> 01:07:47.559
<v Speaker 2>of money. I missed those days. That seems to be

1137
01:07:47.920 --> 01:07:50.400
<v Speaker 2>the chickens that have come home to rust. Trump was saying,

1138
01:07:50.400 --> 01:07:52.599
<v Speaker 2>you know, we need to negotiate a piece here, and

1139
01:07:52.639 --> 01:07:55.599
<v Speaker 2>that's going to have to involve concessions by Ukraine and

1140
01:07:55.639 --> 01:07:59.519
<v Speaker 2>when and it pisses everybody off. This this this con or,

1141
01:07:59.559 --> 01:08:02.079
<v Speaker 2>this this this problem that developed on Friday with the

1142
01:08:02.159 --> 01:08:05.000
<v Speaker 2>Russian president and JD. Vance and Donald Trump and all

1143
01:08:05.119 --> 01:08:07.800
<v Speaker 2>by screaming and whaling and national teeth. Oh my god,

1144
01:08:07.880 --> 01:08:10.119
<v Speaker 2>how undiplomatic and blah blah blah blah blah. So what

1145
01:08:10.159 --> 01:08:11.920
<v Speaker 2>does he do is Selunski gets on a plane, goes

1146
01:08:11.920 --> 01:08:15.000
<v Speaker 2>to the UK, where the French President Marcone and the

1147
01:08:15.079 --> 01:08:17.720
<v Speaker 2>UK's Prime minister now say they're going to take over

1148
01:08:18.039 --> 01:08:22.279
<v Speaker 2>the discussion of peace. What does that mean in their mind?

1149
01:08:22.439 --> 01:08:26.600
<v Speaker 2>What does a peace resolution involve? Does it mean concessions

1150
01:08:26.640 --> 01:08:29.000
<v Speaker 2>to Russia. Russia's got the upper hand on this for

1151
01:08:29.039 --> 01:08:30.960
<v Speaker 2>the reasons that Hannity pointed out and I pointed out

1152
01:08:30.960 --> 01:08:35.279
<v Speaker 2>as well, superior resources, superior army. Ukraine's running out of

1153
01:08:35.359 --> 01:08:38.760
<v Speaker 2>live human bodies that are capable of defending whatever territory

1154
01:08:38.800 --> 01:08:42.199
<v Speaker 2>they've got, and without the help of Western countries they

1155
01:08:42.199 --> 01:08:46.359
<v Speaker 2>would have been dealt a fatal blow by now. And

1156
01:08:46.399 --> 01:08:48.880
<v Speaker 2>you got the green industrial complex was the further point

1157
01:08:48.880 --> 01:08:52.479
<v Speaker 2>to that it's just a fake economy that's been created

1158
01:08:52.560 --> 01:08:57.039
<v Speaker 2>under this green crap, a fake economy without government dollars,

1159
01:08:57.159 --> 01:09:03.119
<v Speaker 2>that entire system does not exist. There isn't a windmill manufacturer,

1160
01:09:03.159 --> 01:09:07.600
<v Speaker 2>notably China. There aren't solar panel manufacturers unless there's a

1161
01:09:07.640 --> 01:09:11.159
<v Speaker 2>demand formed by society a product that can compete and

1162
01:09:11.199 --> 01:09:14.720
<v Speaker 2>provides some measure of efficiency or reliability. For individuals to

1163
01:09:14.760 --> 01:09:16.600
<v Speaker 2>decide on their own if they want to go down

1164
01:09:16.640 --> 01:09:20.760
<v Speaker 2>that road, that's okay. Thomas Massey did it. He chose

1165
01:09:22.239 --> 01:09:25.920
<v Speaker 2>to use an old Tesla battery and solar panels and

1166
01:09:25.960 --> 01:09:27.720
<v Speaker 2>maybe even some wind I can't recall if he's got

1167
01:09:27.760 --> 01:09:29.479
<v Speaker 2>a windmill on his farm, but on his farm, he

1168
01:09:29.560 --> 01:09:32.960
<v Speaker 2>chose to go down that road. Individual choice it worked

1169
01:09:33.000 --> 01:09:35.560
<v Speaker 2>for him, and it works for him, it doesn't work

1170
01:09:35.600 --> 01:09:38.560
<v Speaker 2>for everybody, especially on a mass scale. When you've got

1171
01:09:38.680 --> 01:09:41.199
<v Speaker 2>millions of people living in a city, they can't afford

1172
01:09:41.239 --> 01:09:43.039
<v Speaker 2>to have their own solar panel up. So it's got

1173
01:09:43.079 --> 01:09:47.800
<v Speaker 2>to be done on a huge industrial level, funded by government.

1174
01:09:49.560 --> 01:09:54.119
<v Speaker 2>And when the power goes out, well, you have unhappy people.

1175
01:09:54.439 --> 01:09:56.680
<v Speaker 2>Going back to the backlash on green energy that was

1176
01:09:56.720 --> 01:09:59.479
<v Speaker 2>revealed by the Washington Times that I spoke of earlier

1177
01:10:00.199 --> 01:10:05.359
<v Speaker 2>military industrial complex, green industrial complex. Who's benefiting from it?

1178
01:10:06.439 --> 01:10:09.840
<v Speaker 2>You and I aren't. Six forty eight fifty five K

1179
01:10:10.039 --> 01:10:13.680
<v Speaker 2>see talk station automobiles. Get your auto fixed. If youve

1180
01:10:13.680 --> 01:10:16.479
<v Speaker 2>got a traditionally imported manufacturer automobile, you want to take

1181
01:10:16.479 --> 01:10:19.119
<v Speaker 2>it to Foreign Exchange because they'll fix it for less money.

1182
01:10:19.680 --> 01:10:21.920
<v Speaker 2>You get a full warranty on parts in service. You

1183
01:10:21.960 --> 01:10:25.399
<v Speaker 2>have nothing to worry about. These are superior mechanics, a

1184
01:10:25.439 --> 01:10:28.760
<v Speaker 2>SC certified Master technicians working on your car. They've worked

1185
01:10:28.760 --> 01:10:31.840
<v Speaker 2>on the Thomas cars now for years and years and years.

1186
01:10:31.920 --> 01:10:33.560
<v Speaker 2>And I know I've saved a heap blow of money

1187
01:10:33.600 --> 01:10:36.279
<v Speaker 2>by going to Foreign Exchange over the dealer. I think

1188
01:10:36.319 --> 01:10:39.119
<v Speaker 2>customer service is superior as well. Now I like the

1189
01:10:39.159 --> 01:10:42.000
<v Speaker 2>people at my auto dealership where I got my car,

1190
01:10:42.279 --> 01:10:44.560
<v Speaker 2>but I go to Foreign Exchange to have its service.

1191
01:10:44.640 --> 01:10:48.640
<v Speaker 2>Most notably since it's under warranty. The oil changes huge

1192
01:10:48.680 --> 01:10:51.439
<v Speaker 2>savings on oil changes. So if you're getting ready to

1193
01:10:51.479 --> 01:10:53.520
<v Speaker 2>go out a warranty, I also get it into FORIGN Exchange.

1194
01:10:53.520 --> 01:10:55.279
<v Speaker 2>You having to do a end to end inspection to

1195
01:10:55.279 --> 01:10:57.119
<v Speaker 2>find out all those things that need to be repaired

1196
01:10:57.199 --> 01:10:59.920
<v Speaker 2>under warranty before it expires. Just one little extra service

1197
01:10:59.920 --> 01:11:02.359
<v Speaker 2>you can get from Foreign Exchange Austin, and the team

1198
01:11:02.359 --> 01:11:05.039
<v Speaker 2>will treat you great. That will be the Westchester location.

1209
01:11:32.159 --> 01:11:34.279
<v Speaker 2>local stories in have taken phone calls, which I just

1210
01:11:34.319 --> 01:11:36.119
<v Speaker 2>I prefer over the local story at the bottom of

1211
01:11:36.119 --> 01:11:38.439
<v Speaker 2>the hour. So phone calls anytime are always welcome here,

1212
01:11:38.960 --> 01:11:40.000
<v Speaker 2>but I wanted to get this in.

1213
01:11:40.239 --> 01:11:40.560
<v Speaker 16>Uh.

1214
01:11:40.720 --> 01:11:44.359
<v Speaker 2>The City of Cincinnati Fox nineteen reporting credit Where credits

1215
01:11:44.399 --> 01:11:48.920
<v Speaker 2>do Cincinnati? Three to one one since E three one

1216
01:11:49.000 --> 01:11:50.920
<v Speaker 2>one is where you call in for potholes. They said

1217
01:11:50.960 --> 01:11:56.439
<v Speaker 2>on Friday, the city has repaired six thousand, three hundred

1218
01:11:56.439 --> 01:12:03.159
<v Speaker 2>and twenty four potholes since Friday, February twenty first, and

1219
01:12:03.199 --> 01:12:06.359
<v Speaker 2>they're still working hard to fix the thousands that remain

1220
01:12:06.439 --> 01:12:14.319
<v Speaker 2>in the city. Joe, A little step for Joe believes anything.

1221
01:12:14.359 --> 01:12:17.640
<v Speaker 2>The city says, get your tongue out of your deep cheek, Joe.

1222
01:12:18.920 --> 01:12:23.439
<v Speaker 2>Since last Monday, they received one ninety seven requests through

1223
01:12:23.479 --> 01:12:26.720
<v Speaker 2>the Sincy three to one one sign a call center.

1224
01:12:28.199 --> 01:12:31.800
<v Speaker 2>Of course, they're blaming the winter. Yeah, this winter is

1225
01:12:31.840 --> 01:12:35.199
<v Speaker 2>to blame for Sunset, my favorite street to make fun of,

1226
01:12:35.239 --> 01:12:40.840
<v Speaker 2>which has been a well gaza like nightmare for the

1227
01:12:40.920 --> 01:12:46.039
<v Speaker 2>last decade or more. It says the Department of Public

1228
01:12:46.079 --> 01:12:50.239
<v Speaker 2>Services has teamed up with a Delta Construction to help

1229
01:12:50.279 --> 01:12:53.039
<v Speaker 2>repair potholes in the city. I guess the city resources

1230
01:12:53.079 --> 01:12:55.960
<v Speaker 2>are insufficient. I know they had to sub it out,

1231
01:12:57.000 --> 01:12:59.439
<v Speaker 2>but anyone who sees or encounters a potholes should report

1232
01:12:59.479 --> 01:13:02.720
<v Speaker 2>it by calling one or by visiting three one one

1233
01:13:02.800 --> 01:13:06.039

01:13:06.039 --> 01:13:07.560

1236

1276
01:15:18.680 --> 01:15:20.520
<v Speaker 2>Christopher Smith and former Vice Mayor of the City of

1277
01:15:20.520 --> 01:15:23.680
<v Speaker 2>Cincinnati for the Smither event Fast Forward and Out for

1278
01:15:23.800 --> 01:15:25.640
<v Speaker 2>Money Monday with Brian James. Today, we're going to be

1279
01:15:25.640 --> 01:15:29.920
<v Speaker 2>talking about first quarter GDP growth, food prices and inflation

1280
01:15:32.840 --> 01:15:36.880
<v Speaker 2>and that topic just because I go grocery shopping with

1281
01:15:36.920 --> 01:15:40.159
<v Speaker 2>my wife every weekend and I am just overwhelmed at

1282
01:15:40.199 --> 01:15:45.239
<v Speaker 2>the price of groceries, just amazing, and that breaks my

1283
01:15:45.279 --> 01:15:48.119
<v Speaker 2>heart every time I see it too. Anyway, coupled with that,

1284
01:15:48.680 --> 01:15:52.760
<v Speaker 2>expect restaurant bankruptcies. That'll be number three topic. And then

1285
01:15:52.760 --> 01:15:56.680
<v Speaker 2>finally four to one k balance is trending higher question mark.

1286
01:15:57.399 --> 01:15:59.119
<v Speaker 2>That's what it says on the rundown. That's what we're

1287
01:15:59.119 --> 01:16:01.680
<v Speaker 2>talking about with Brian Games for Monday Monday, followed by

1288
01:16:01.680 --> 01:16:04.760
<v Speaker 2>the Sincintiva joining the KRC Care segment at eight forty.

1289
01:16:05.439 --> 01:16:08.039
<v Speaker 2>So love helping out the American veteran anyway I can,

1290
01:16:08.159 --> 01:16:11.439
<v Speaker 2>as most of my listening audience knows, and I was

1291
01:16:11.479 --> 01:16:13.680
<v Speaker 2>talking about the you know, the backlash to the green

1292
01:16:13.800 --> 01:16:19.680
<v Speaker 2>agenda is well becoming very significant New Jersey, Maryland, Massachusetts

1293
01:16:19.760 --> 01:16:21.720
<v Speaker 2>the subject of the Washington Times article that you know,

1294
01:16:21.760 --> 01:16:26.560
<v Speaker 2>this is just It is legislatively created. It is a

1295
01:16:26.720 --> 01:16:29.640
<v Speaker 2>high cost of energy brought about by efforts to get

1296
01:16:29.720 --> 01:16:33.760
<v Speaker 2>rid of carbon and ultimately with unreliable energy sources and

1297
01:16:33.920 --> 01:16:39.960
<v Speaker 2>the odd goofy reality. I believe Massachusetts just like European

1298
01:16:40.079 --> 01:16:43.159
<v Speaker 2>Union countries, they don't want to drill in their own backyard.

1299
01:16:43.159 --> 01:16:44.880
<v Speaker 2>They don't want to build their own nuclear plants. To

1300
01:16:44.880 --> 01:16:47.319
<v Speaker 2>what do they do They buy gas from someplace else,

1301
01:16:47.399 --> 01:16:51.079
<v Speaker 2>as if that makes it clean or green. This is

1302
01:16:51.159 --> 01:17:00.600
<v Speaker 2>just backcrap, insanity. Absolutely, electricity bills doubling, especially when these

1303
01:17:00.600 --> 01:17:04.439
<v Speaker 2>inflationary pressures were all under grocery prices going through the roof,

1304
01:17:04.479 --> 01:17:07.560
<v Speaker 2>you don't have enough money to spend, and much like

1305
01:17:07.600 --> 01:17:10.399
<v Speaker 2>your real estate taxes, your energy bill goes through the roof.

1306
01:17:10.439 --> 01:17:15.159
<v Speaker 2>This is doing some significant damages to people's financial stability.

1307
01:17:15.279 --> 01:17:18.239
<v Speaker 2>If we didn't pursue this nonsense, then your energy bill

1308
01:17:18.279 --> 01:17:20.079
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't go through the roof, and you'd have a more

1309
01:17:20.119 --> 01:17:22.479
<v Speaker 2>reliable form of energy in the form of natural gas

1310
01:17:22.520 --> 01:17:26.199
<v Speaker 2>or maybe even nuclear power. And I embrace that, and

1311
01:17:26.279 --> 01:17:28.000
<v Speaker 2>thank god we have a president Now that's an all

1312
01:17:28.000 --> 01:17:31.000
<v Speaker 2>the above strategy kind of guy. Before I get on

1313
01:17:31.079 --> 01:17:33.600
<v Speaker 2>to something else here, let's see what CJ's got this morning. CJ,

1314
01:17:33.680 --> 01:17:35.439
<v Speaker 2>thanks for calling the Morning Show and a happy Monday

1315
01:17:35.479 --> 01:17:35.680
<v Speaker 2>to you.

1316
01:17:37.279 --> 01:17:39.119
<v Speaker 17>Happy Monday to you as well. And I was actually

1317
01:17:39.159 --> 01:17:42.199
<v Speaker 17>gonna fall just piggyback right onto what you're saying. My

1318
01:17:42.279 --> 01:17:45.159
<v Speaker 17>mom owns a farm in Illinois, and she gets a

1319
01:17:45.199 --> 01:17:49.560
<v Speaker 17>phone call all the time from Hansen's, a mineral company,

1320
01:17:49.960 --> 01:17:52.399
<v Speaker 17>in order to dredge and take all the rare earth

1321
01:17:52.560 --> 01:17:57.199
<v Speaker 17>minerals out of her farm and basically take her farm

1322
01:17:57.239 --> 01:18:01.119
<v Speaker 17>out of production of food. Then you have in California

1323
01:18:01.159 --> 01:18:07.039
<v Speaker 17>all these solar farms that have literally destroyed the cattle

1324
01:18:07.119 --> 01:18:11.239
<v Speaker 17>industry out there because there's no room for the grazing,

1325
01:18:11.479 --> 01:18:15.600
<v Speaker 17>and these ranchers are being given loads and loads of

1326
01:18:15.640 --> 01:18:18.319
<v Speaker 17>money to basically stop producing food.

1327
01:18:18.800 --> 01:18:20.960
<v Speaker 3>And so now we have the.

1328
01:18:20.600 --> 01:18:25.640
<v Speaker 17>Law supply and demand will always outrun whatever we think

1329
01:18:25.800 --> 01:18:29.439
<v Speaker 17>is a good idea, because if you reduce apply and

1330
01:18:29.520 --> 01:18:31.800
<v Speaker 17>continue with the same demand, the price is going to

1331
01:18:31.880 --> 01:18:34.880
<v Speaker 17>go up in order to bring balance to the economy.

1332
01:18:35.199 --> 01:18:38.720
<v Speaker 17>And we have totally forgotten about economics when it comes

1333
01:18:38.760 --> 01:18:42.279
<v Speaker 17>to these stupid and insane environmental policies.

1334
01:18:42.359 --> 01:18:45.479
<v Speaker 2>Well, it also invites looking to maybe a more nefarious

1335
01:18:45.520 --> 01:18:47.920
<v Speaker 2>component to it. You know, when I think of the

1336
01:18:47.960 --> 01:18:51.640
<v Speaker 2>availability of abundant, inexpensive food in our country, some may

1337
01:18:51.760 --> 01:18:54.319
<v Speaker 2>argue that's what led to the modern obesity problem we

1338
01:18:54.359 --> 01:18:56.239
<v Speaker 2>face because you know, you can go to your local

1339
01:18:56.279 --> 01:18:58.840
<v Speaker 2>fast food place for less than five bucks, get you know,

1340
01:18:58.920 --> 01:19:03.399
<v Speaker 2>three thousand galeries worth of food. You know, maybe it's

1341
01:19:03.439 --> 01:19:07.079
<v Speaker 2>by design. Maybe they want the supply to go down

1342
01:19:07.319 --> 01:19:09.920
<v Speaker 2>and ergo the price to go up so we ultimately

1343
01:19:10.000 --> 01:19:13.840
<v Speaker 2>consume less. That would fit into the socialist agenda reduced consumption,

1344
01:19:14.760 --> 01:19:18.039
<v Speaker 2>more heartache and pain less stuff and things for us

1345
01:19:18.079 --> 01:19:20.000
<v Speaker 2>to consume, you know. I mean, there's whole bit, and

1346
01:19:20.000 --> 01:19:22.800
<v Speaker 2>there's environmental reasons for that as well. We apparently have

1347
01:19:22.840 --> 01:19:25.840
<v Speaker 2>a garbage problem in the planet, too many plastics in

1348
01:19:25.920 --> 01:19:29.399
<v Speaker 2>the in the globe, We got plastics float around the ocean,

1349
01:19:29.560 --> 01:19:33.680
<v Speaker 2>particulates in everybody's bodies. You know, there's a multitude of

1350
01:19:33.760 --> 01:19:35.880
<v Speaker 2>layers on this you could point to, and it all

1351
01:19:35.920 --> 01:19:38.840
<v Speaker 2>seems to sort of lend itself to maybe, well, maybe

1352
01:19:38.840 --> 01:19:42.439
<v Speaker 2>this is a broader conspiracy theory looming behind the scenes here.

1353
01:19:43.079 --> 01:19:47.880
<v Speaker 2>Lower abundant energy means less consumption, less production. Look at Germany,

1354
01:19:48.039 --> 01:19:49.960
<v Speaker 2>they're not producing as much as they used to because

1355
01:19:49.960 --> 01:19:52.439
<v Speaker 2>it can't afford the electricity. It's four times higher than

1356
01:19:52.680 --> 01:19:56.239
<v Speaker 2>here in the United States. That's a recipe for business reduction.

1357
01:19:57.239 --> 01:19:59.800
<v Speaker 2>I think that's actually part of it. I hate to

1358
01:19:59.800 --> 01:20:02.199
<v Speaker 2>say it out loud for fear being labeled some kind

1359
01:20:02.199 --> 01:20:08.920
<v Speaker 2>of kook, But we're living the reality of this, and again,

1360
01:20:09.079 --> 01:20:13.960
<v Speaker 2>all in the name of reducing carbon dioxide, which is

1361
01:20:14.000 --> 01:20:18.600
<v Speaker 2>plant food. It's such a small fraction of the Earth's

1362
01:20:18.600 --> 01:20:24.039
<v Speaker 2>atmosphere too. And the climate does change, it always has changed.

1363
01:20:24.079 --> 01:20:26.760
<v Speaker 2>I mean, how do you separate, you know, pre industrial

1364
01:20:26.840 --> 01:20:31.960
<v Speaker 2>revolution climate change from what's going on now. You know,

1365
01:20:32.199 --> 01:20:37.119
<v Speaker 2>the talking heads and networks and the left wing green

1366
01:20:37.159 --> 01:20:42.600
<v Speaker 2>agenda folks want to blame every single climate event on us.

1367
01:20:44.760 --> 01:20:49.920
<v Speaker 2>We're the cockroaches, We're the problem. The wildfires, Oh, that's

1368
01:20:50.439 --> 01:20:57.399
<v Speaker 2>climate change. Oh really, Like, there weren't wildfires pre industrial Revolution.

1369
01:20:57.520 --> 01:21:01.640
<v Speaker 2>I mean we know there are or were. I mean,

1370
01:21:01.680 --> 01:21:04.319
<v Speaker 2>trees reflected. You cut a tree down that's more than

1371
01:21:04.359 --> 01:21:06.880
<v Speaker 2>several hundred years old, you can see when a wildfire

1372
01:21:06.920 --> 01:21:09.960
<v Speaker 2>went through. It's shown in the rings of the tree. Oh,

1373
01:21:10.000 --> 01:21:13.319
<v Speaker 2>but that wasn't us back then. No, that was just

1374
01:21:13.359 --> 01:21:16.840
<v Speaker 2>a naturally occurring event. The glacier that once covered the

1375
01:21:16.840 --> 01:21:19.760
<v Speaker 2>state of Ohio ten thousand or so years ago, that's gone.

1376
01:21:19.920 --> 01:21:23.239
<v Speaker 2>Thank god, right, thank god it's gone, so we can

1377
01:21:23.239 --> 01:21:28.359
<v Speaker 2>pay farmers to grow corn. Well, not allowed me the

1378
01:21:28.399 --> 01:21:30.359
<v Speaker 2>last remaining moments of this segment to pivot over to

1379
01:21:30.359 --> 01:21:39.079
<v Speaker 2>this pretty much relatable modern feminism makes women miserable? How

1380
01:21:39.119 --> 01:21:43.039
<v Speaker 2>does that connect? Institute for Family Studies recently analyzed findings

1381
01:21:43.079 --> 01:21:46.720
<v Speaker 2>from the annual American Family Survey, finding thirty seven percent

1382
01:21:46.760 --> 01:21:48.880
<v Speaker 2>of conservative women between the age of eighteen and forty

1383
01:21:48.960 --> 01:21:52.279
<v Speaker 2>say they were completely satisfied with life. Get only twelve

1384
01:21:52.319 --> 01:21:57.119
<v Speaker 2>percent of liberal women feel that way. Backed up by

1385
01:21:57.119 --> 01:21:59.840
<v Speaker 2>prior studies, twenty twenty one, Columby University professors put out

1386
01:21:59.920 --> 01:22:03.760
<v Speaker 2>us study on depression among twelfth graders, taking a look

1387
01:22:03.800 --> 01:22:06.800
<v Speaker 2>at data between twenty five and twenty eighteen, finding female

1388
01:22:06.800 --> 01:22:11.119
<v Speaker 2>liberals reported worse internalizing symptoms scores over the study period

1389
01:22:11.119 --> 01:22:14.600
<v Speaker 2>than all other groups. Penn State University study from twenty

1390
01:22:14.640 --> 01:22:18.880
<v Speaker 2>seventeen noted politically conservative participants were significantly more optimistic and

1391
01:22:19.039 --> 01:22:24.279
<v Speaker 2>satisfied with life than their liberal counterparts counterparts. A study

1392
01:22:24.319 --> 01:22:27.479
<v Speaker 2>in Psychological Science two thousand and eight quote, why are

1393
01:22:27.600 --> 01:22:30.359
<v Speaker 2>conservatives happier than liberals? Citing a two thousand and six

1394
01:22:30.399 --> 01:22:34.039
<v Speaker 2>Pew Research survey showing forty seven percent of conservative Republicans

1395
01:22:34.399 --> 01:22:36.960
<v Speaker 2>called themselves very happy, while only twenty eight percent of

1396
01:22:37.000 --> 01:22:41.319
<v Speaker 2>liberal Democrats did the same, Researchers from Columbia speculated the

1397
01:22:41.319 --> 01:22:45.399
<v Speaker 2>political events might have contributed to liberal depression. Republicans made

1398
01:22:45.439 --> 01:22:49.119
<v Speaker 2>political gains in the twenty tens, including Trump' selection. The

1399
01:22:49.199 --> 01:22:54.439
<v Speaker 2>researchers claimed issues like here you are, global warming, structural racism,

1400
01:22:54.560 --> 01:22:59.079
<v Speaker 2>and pervasive sexism quote became unavoidable features of political discourse.

1401
01:22:59.159 --> 01:23:03.399
<v Speaker 2>Implication is that liberals are depressed because they care so

1402
01:23:03.479 --> 01:23:07.399
<v Speaker 2>much about the world problems. Article points out, Well, that

1403
01:23:07.439 --> 01:23:10.159
<v Speaker 2>may sound noble, stressing out about something you can't control

1404
01:23:10.279 --> 01:23:14.039
<v Speaker 2>isn't a virtue. It can lead to quote learned helplessness

1405
01:23:14.920 --> 01:23:18.520
<v Speaker 2>close quote. If people believe their choices won't improve things,

1406
01:23:18.520 --> 01:23:20.680
<v Speaker 2>they often give up or make worse choices. Little one

1407
01:23:20.760 --> 01:23:26.199
<v Speaker 2>to Researchers off and connect learned helplessness to depression. While

1408
01:23:26.199 --> 01:23:28.479
<v Speaker 2>this is a factor, they say it's a deeper explanation.

1409
01:23:28.640 --> 01:23:32.079
<v Speaker 2>Feminists originally argued for equal opportunity in voting, education, in

1410
01:23:32.119 --> 01:23:36.439
<v Speaker 2>the workplace that happened. Second wave feminists went further. They

1411
01:23:36.520 --> 01:23:40.159
<v Speaker 2>disparaged marriage and religion as tools of the patriarchy. They

1412
01:23:40.159 --> 01:23:43.199
<v Speaker 2>didn't view children as a source of deep, meaningful fulfillment,

1413
01:23:43.239 --> 01:23:47.239
<v Speaker 2>but rather as an obstacle to career success. Third and

1414
01:23:47.239 --> 01:23:49.920
<v Speaker 2>fourth wave feminists went beyond that. Many contend to different

1415
01:23:49.960 --> 01:23:52.439
<v Speaker 2>outcomes between men and women are solely the result of

1416
01:23:52.520 --> 01:23:57.119
<v Speaker 2>societal expectations. These ideas have gone so far that leftists

1417
01:23:57.159 --> 01:24:01.000
<v Speaker 2>now claim men can become women. Why some men would

1418
01:24:01.039 --> 01:24:03.680
<v Speaker 2>willingly give up the power of the patriarchy has never

1419
01:24:03.760 --> 01:24:08.680
<v Speaker 2>quite explained. These ideas of gain tremendous cultural power, especially

1420
01:24:08.680 --> 01:24:11.279
<v Speaker 2>on the left. As a result, liberals are less likely

1421
01:24:11.319 --> 01:24:15.960
<v Speaker 2>to be married, go to church, or have kids. These

1422
01:24:16.000 --> 01:24:20.720
<v Speaker 2>haven't brought joyous liberation, but rather the opposite. In a

1423
01:24:20.760 --> 01:24:23.960
<v Speaker 2>book called Get Married, author Brad wilcox's married men and

1424
01:24:24.000 --> 01:24:26.439
<v Speaker 2>women are around twice as likely to be very happy

1425
01:24:26.479 --> 01:24:29.640
<v Speaker 2>as their single counterparts. An obvious factor is that loneliness.

1426
01:24:30.760 --> 01:24:33.399
<v Speaker 2>Single childless adults more than twice as likely as married

1427
01:24:33.439 --> 01:24:38.079
<v Speaker 2>individuals to say there always are almost always lonely. He noted, Historically,

1428
01:24:38.119 --> 01:24:41.680
<v Speaker 2>single individuals found community and connection in a church or synagogue,

1429
01:24:41.680 --> 01:24:45.439
<v Speaker 2>but liberals are less likely to attend religious services. If

1430
01:24:45.479 --> 01:24:47.840
<v Speaker 2>women want to be happy, they should embrace what modern

1431
01:24:47.880 --> 01:24:57.359
<v Speaker 2>feminists falsely claim is the patriarchy. Victor jokes writing, Yep, thankfully,

<v Speaker 2>to have you on the show.

1458
01:26:13.199 --> 01:26:15.840
<v Speaker 3>Oh brother, it's so good to hear your voice, and

1459
01:26:15.880 --> 01:26:20.000
<v Speaker 3>I'm always honored to be on. Every week there's something

1460
01:26:20.000 --> 01:26:23.119
<v Speaker 3>to talk about. Yeah, it just gets everybody fired up.

1461
01:26:23.279 --> 01:26:23.560
<v Speaker 10>You know.

1462
01:26:25.119 --> 01:26:27.840
<v Speaker 3>I want to start with something that's you know, a

1463
01:26:27.880 --> 01:26:31.239
<v Speaker 3>little abstract, and I want to I want to just

1464
01:26:31.439 --> 01:26:34.039
<v Speaker 3>deal and I'm gonna start talking about this subject matter

1465
01:26:34.560 --> 01:26:35.640
<v Speaker 3>of racism.

1466
01:26:36.239 --> 01:26:36.399
<v Speaker 10>Now.

1467
01:26:36.399 --> 01:26:38.720
<v Speaker 3>What I want to be what I want to share

1468
01:26:38.760 --> 01:26:42.600
<v Speaker 3>with you, Brian, is that the word racism, in my opinion,

1469
01:26:43.279 --> 01:26:47.439
<v Speaker 3>is being watered down. See, racism is real and there

1470
01:26:47.439 --> 01:26:50.880
<v Speaker 3>are people out there that have issues. They make decisions,

1471
01:26:51.159 --> 01:26:54.239
<v Speaker 3>but we're in this world like if somebody says I

1472
01:26:54.279 --> 01:26:57.159
<v Speaker 3>support the LGBTQ plus community. But I say, I don't

1473
01:26:57.199 --> 01:27:00.560
<v Speaker 3>want boys to compete against girls. All all of a sudden,

1474
01:27:01.159 --> 01:27:05.479
<v Speaker 3>I don't like the gay community. That's crazy, right. There's

1475
01:27:05.560 --> 01:27:08.560
<v Speaker 3>notion that you know if I'm saying, well, I want

1476
01:27:08.600 --> 01:27:13.319
<v Speaker 3>reforms in public education, knowing that, Let's say where I live,

1477
01:27:13.439 --> 01:27:16.439
<v Speaker 3>which is true. Let's say they're thirty seven thousand kids

1478
01:27:16.439 --> 01:27:19.119
<v Speaker 3>and seventy percent of them are African American, all of

1479
01:27:19.119 --> 01:27:22.439
<v Speaker 3>a sudden, I'm against African American kids. I happen to

1480
01:27:22.479 --> 01:27:25.720
<v Speaker 3>be African American. So we've got to get ourselves. We've

1481
01:27:25.760 --> 01:27:30.800
<v Speaker 3>gone into the gooney crazy world where people can't have

1482
01:27:30.960 --> 01:27:35.479
<v Speaker 3>honest conversations about important subject matters without being called a

1483
01:27:35.600 --> 01:27:38.319
<v Speaker 3>racist or saying that they're homophobic, or saying they have

1484
01:27:38.399 --> 01:27:41.039
<v Speaker 3>some other kind of issue, and it makes it difficult

1485
01:27:41.119 --> 01:27:45.760
<v Speaker 3>to have very tough conversations. I think sometimes the Democratic

1486
01:27:45.800 --> 01:27:49.279
<v Speaker 3>Party knows that, and they're pushing these agendas in order

1487
01:27:49.560 --> 01:27:53.319
<v Speaker 3>for people not to tackle the major issues that are

1488
01:27:53.479 --> 01:27:56.159
<v Speaker 3>facing our country. For the last point I'll give you

1489
01:27:56.399 --> 01:27:59.399
<v Speaker 3>is just because someone says, as a parent, listen, I

1490
01:27:59.439 --> 01:28:01.920
<v Speaker 3>want to make this decisions about what's happening in my house.

1491
01:28:02.239 --> 01:28:04.279
<v Speaker 3>I don't want my child to be able to change

1492
01:28:04.319 --> 01:28:08.399
<v Speaker 3>their gender without me the parent, having something to say

1493
01:28:08.439 --> 01:28:12.399
<v Speaker 3>about that. That doesn't make me homophobic, No, No, that

1494
01:28:12.479 --> 01:28:14.960
<v Speaker 3>makes me somebody that wants to be involved in my

1495
01:28:15.199 --> 01:28:18.680
<v Speaker 3>child's life. And what's happening right now they push so

1496
01:28:18.960 --> 01:28:22.279
<v Speaker 3>far that it to the left that they're having these

1497
01:28:22.279 --> 01:28:25.359
<v Speaker 3>conversations that basic Americans out here who are getting up

1498
01:28:25.399 --> 01:28:29.079
<v Speaker 3>every day trying to raise a family are being called

1499
01:28:29.159 --> 01:28:32.079
<v Speaker 3>all kinds of crazy dangs. And the reality of it

1500
01:28:32.119 --> 01:28:35.039
<v Speaker 3>is they're just wanting common sense. If you're a mom

1501
01:28:35.079 --> 01:28:37.279
<v Speaker 3>and you're a dad, and you're in your house and

1502
01:28:37.319 --> 01:28:39.840
<v Speaker 3>you're raising your family, you want to be able to

1503
01:28:39.880 --> 01:28:44.039
<v Speaker 3>make decisions about your child and their life, not the institution,

1504
01:28:44.479 --> 01:28:47.439
<v Speaker 3>not the educational system, me the parent.

1505
01:28:47.720 --> 01:28:50.560
<v Speaker 2>Well. And the problem is, you know, it boils down

1506
01:28:50.600 --> 01:28:54.319
<v Speaker 2>to its name calling. When you don't have a legitimate argument,

1507
01:28:54.640 --> 01:28:57.520
<v Speaker 2>then you just start labeling people and name calling. But

1508
01:28:57.600 --> 01:29:05.279
<v Speaker 2>the problem with this is LG that is sexuality, lesbian, gay, bisexual.

1509
01:29:05.319 --> 01:29:09.319
<v Speaker 2>That is what you prefer by way of sexual relationships

1510
01:29:09.800 --> 01:29:15.000
<v Speaker 2>with your partner. That I have no problem with, none whatsoever.

1511
01:29:15.279 --> 01:29:17.319
<v Speaker 2>But the minute you throw tea in there, just because

1512
01:29:17.319 --> 01:29:20.439
<v Speaker 2>you're transgender doesn't mean you're a particular sexuality. It means

1513
01:29:20.439 --> 01:29:23.880
<v Speaker 2>that suddenly you can change your chromosomal biological reality and

1514
01:29:23.920 --> 01:29:26.439
<v Speaker 2>call yourself something that you are not. There is no

1515
01:29:26.560 --> 01:29:30.680
<v Speaker 2>connection with the to the T to the LGB part.

1516
01:29:31.600 --> 01:29:34.880
<v Speaker 2>There are guys walking around in dresses that say they're women,

1517
01:29:34.920 --> 01:29:37.960
<v Speaker 2>but they might be attracted to men, they might be

1518
01:29:38.000 --> 01:29:40.800
<v Speaker 2>attracted to women, they might be attracted to both men

1519
01:29:40.840 --> 01:29:43.680
<v Speaker 2>and women. That is their sexuality, it's not their gender.

1520
01:29:43.760 --> 01:29:48.359
<v Speaker 2>Gender has nothing to do with sexuality. I mean, it's insane.

1521
01:29:48.479 --> 01:29:50.680
<v Speaker 2>And that's that was the point of Dave Chappelle's comedy

1522
01:29:50.720 --> 01:29:53.479
<v Speaker 2>routine that got him so, you know, in so much

1523
01:29:53.520 --> 01:29:56.319
<v Speaker 2>trouble is because he made the point that I'm making

1524
01:29:56.399 --> 01:29:59.720
<v Speaker 2>right now. It's like, fine, you're gay, find your lesbian,

1525
01:29:59.800 --> 01:30:02.399
<v Speaker 2>Fine you're bisexual. But then the transit it was like

1526
01:30:02.399 --> 01:30:04.359
<v Speaker 2>it was be set up as they're all driving in

1527
01:30:04.359 --> 01:30:07.279
<v Speaker 2>the car together and then the trans transgender person gets

1528
01:30:07.319 --> 01:30:09.279
<v Speaker 2>in the car and kind of ruined it for everybody

1529
01:30:09.279 --> 01:30:14.560
<v Speaker 2>because it complicates an otherwise straightforward discussion about one sexuality.

1530
01:30:16.199 --> 01:30:20.199
<v Speaker 3>And all I'm saying, Brian, is that their parents out

1531
01:30:20.239 --> 01:30:23.960
<v Speaker 3>there that are facing are you know, are facing very

1532
01:30:24.000 --> 01:30:28.159
<v Speaker 3>complicated things already being a parent is the hardest job

1533
01:30:28.199 --> 01:30:30.880
<v Speaker 3>in the world. We wake up every day, we're trying

1534
01:30:30.880 --> 01:30:33.000
<v Speaker 3>to make the right decisions for our kids. What we

1535
01:30:33.159 --> 01:30:38.199
<v Speaker 3>don't need our institutions trying to intervene and tell us

1536
01:30:38.279 --> 01:30:41.520
<v Speaker 3>how to raise our children. And that doesn't make somebody

1537
01:30:41.800 --> 01:30:45.560
<v Speaker 3>anti anything because they have a vision or a dream

1538
01:30:45.600 --> 01:30:48.520
<v Speaker 3>for their kids. I'm a girl dad, I don't want

1539
01:30:48.600 --> 01:30:51.600
<v Speaker 3>dudes in the locker room with my daughter. That doesn't

1540
01:30:51.640 --> 01:30:56.000
<v Speaker 3>mean it doesn't mean that I don't support the gay community.

1541
01:30:56.279 --> 01:30:58.520
<v Speaker 3>That's the point. And we've got to be able to

1542
01:30:58.640 --> 01:31:02.239
<v Speaker 3>have these conversations without all the name calling. And that's

1543
01:31:02.239 --> 01:31:04.920
<v Speaker 3>what's been frustrating for me. If these people that are

1544
01:31:04.960 --> 01:31:07.840
<v Speaker 3>so far on the left, who don't love our country,

1545
01:31:07.880 --> 01:31:10.479
<v Speaker 3>who believe that if I put an American flag on

1546
01:31:10.680 --> 01:31:14.000
<v Speaker 3>my house on July fourth, that means I'm a racist,

1547
01:31:14.560 --> 01:31:17.520
<v Speaker 3>that is absolutely true. There are people out there that

1548
01:31:17.640 --> 01:31:20.680
<v Speaker 3>confront people because they have the flag. They're holding the

1549
01:31:20.720 --> 01:31:22.960
<v Speaker 3>flag and all of a sudden, okay, I see the flag,

1550
01:31:23.119 --> 01:31:26.399
<v Speaker 3>that person's a racist. But you're holding a Ukrainian flag

1551
01:31:26.680 --> 01:31:29.279
<v Speaker 3>or you're holding a Hamas flag, and you say that

1552
01:31:29.319 --> 01:31:32.600
<v Speaker 3>there's something wrong with me because I'm in my country

1553
01:31:32.760 --> 01:31:35.399
<v Speaker 3>with an American flag on my house. I'm saying we

1554
01:31:35.560 --> 01:31:39.119
<v Speaker 3>have gone so far, the left has gone so far

1555
01:31:39.399 --> 01:31:44.520
<v Speaker 3>that it's so difficult to have these basic common sense conversations.

1556
01:31:44.560 --> 01:31:47.640
<v Speaker 3>And this is why Democrats are saying, the Democratic Party

1557
01:31:47.680 --> 01:31:52.159
<v Speaker 3>didn't leave me. Mean I didn't leave the Democratic Party.

1558
01:31:52.159 --> 01:31:54.359
<v Speaker 3>Excuse me, the Democratic Party left me.

1559
01:31:54.760 --> 01:31:57.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the squeaky will gets the grease. And in the

1560
01:31:57.119 --> 01:31:59.359
<v Speaker 2>world where we have the Internet and opinions can be

1561
01:31:59.439 --> 01:32:03.399
<v Speaker 2>offered and collected and thrown at people, makes it sound

1562
01:32:03.439 --> 01:32:06.399
<v Speaker 2>like their voice is a majority voice when it isn't.

1563
01:32:06.680 --> 01:32:08.920
<v Speaker 2>There are a very small segment of society, these left

1564
01:32:08.960 --> 01:32:11.880
<v Speaker 2>wing loons that make these arguments and do this name calling.

1565
01:32:11.920 --> 01:32:15.439
<v Speaker 2>They want themselves to be perceived as powerful and large

1566
01:32:15.479 --> 01:32:18.079
<v Speaker 2>and strong. When we look at the polling across America

1567
01:32:18.079 --> 01:32:22.439
<v Speaker 2>on this very issue, this transgender issue, the vast overwhelming

1568
01:32:22.520 --> 01:32:25.840
<v Speaker 2>majority reject the idea that you can change your gender.

1579
01:32:56.239 --> 01:32:58.439
<v Speaker 2>to the hospital imaging department, where you might pay thirty

1580
01:32:58.439 --> 01:33:01.520

01:34:48.720 --> 01:34:50.800
<v Speaker 3>and kind of stay with the same theme. And I

1619
01:34:50.840 --> 01:34:53.479
<v Speaker 3>know this might be a little complicated and convoluted, but

1620
01:34:54.000 --> 01:34:56.079
<v Speaker 3>you know, I'm going to try to tackle this conversation

1621
01:34:56.239 --> 01:35:00.640
<v Speaker 3>that's been happening on immigration. Look, because people are saying

1622
01:35:00.720 --> 01:35:04.960
<v Speaker 3>they want you to come in this country legally, I

1623
01:35:05.039 --> 01:35:08.920
<v Speaker 3>don't want you to jump the line. That there's a process.

1624
01:35:09.159 --> 01:35:13.079
<v Speaker 3>It doesn't make you anti immigration, it doesn't make you

1625
01:35:13.600 --> 01:35:17.159
<v Speaker 3>against any particular race. What it says here is there's

1626
01:35:17.199 --> 01:35:21.119
<v Speaker 3>a process. People who have come here legally, who are

1627
01:35:21.159 --> 01:35:24.640
<v Speaker 3>working every day, who are listening to this show, do

1628
01:35:24.720 --> 01:35:27.680
<v Speaker 3>not want people jumping the line and coming into our

1629
01:35:27.720 --> 01:35:31.920
<v Speaker 3>country illegally. And so this notion that you know, people

1630
01:35:31.920 --> 01:35:34.840
<v Speaker 3>are trying to say, well, man, you're a racist or

1631
01:35:35.199 --> 01:35:38.000
<v Speaker 3>or you don't like immigrants, and da da da dah,

1632
01:35:38.239 --> 01:35:41.920
<v Speaker 3>that's not the conversation we're having. The conversation we're having

1633
01:35:42.039 --> 01:35:45.800
<v Speaker 3>is we want you to come to our country with

1634
01:35:46.359 --> 01:35:50.640
<v Speaker 3>a process, not jumping across a fence and running somewhere

1635
01:35:50.840 --> 01:35:53.640
<v Speaker 3>and we don't know where you are in our country,

1636
01:35:53.680 --> 01:35:58.039
<v Speaker 3>and no other country in the world allows people to

1637
01:35:58.159 --> 01:36:01.000
<v Speaker 3>just run in jump ups and and say hey man,

1638
01:36:01.119 --> 01:36:04.079
<v Speaker 3>I'm here, have a baby, and now the baby says,

1639
01:36:04.239 --> 01:36:08.600
<v Speaker 3>I'm an American. No other country does this people, and

1640
01:36:08.640 --> 01:36:11.000
<v Speaker 3>so we've got to get back so we can have

1641
01:36:11.279 --> 01:36:15.000
<v Speaker 3>some sensible conversation. And this is what is tied in

1642
01:36:15.399 --> 01:36:19.600
<v Speaker 3>to the apes that people have with the Ukrainian president

1643
01:36:19.920 --> 01:36:23.359
<v Speaker 3>and the conversation that took place in the White House.

1644
01:36:23.680 --> 01:36:27.920
<v Speaker 3>People are tired of Americans walking around with Ukrainian flag.

1645
01:36:28.600 --> 01:36:31.600
<v Speaker 3>You live in the United States of America. I feel

1646
01:36:31.640 --> 01:36:34.640
<v Speaker 3>really bad for Ukraine. I don't think Putin should have

1647
01:36:34.680 --> 01:36:37.680
<v Speaker 3>invaded Ukraine. But I live in the United States of

1648
01:36:37.720 --> 01:36:41.439
<v Speaker 3>America and I see veterans that don't have a place

1649
01:36:41.640 --> 01:36:45.800
<v Speaker 3>to live. Think billions of dollars to people who have

1650
01:36:46.000 --> 01:36:48.600
<v Speaker 3>jumped the line. You put them in a hotel, you

1651
01:36:48.760 --> 01:36:51.760
<v Speaker 3>feed them, you give them health care. But the veteran

1652
01:36:52.199 --> 01:36:54.760
<v Speaker 3>is sitting out there in a tent and has nothing.

1653
01:36:55.119 --> 01:36:58.239
<v Speaker 3>That's the problem. And so what these left people don't

1654
01:36:58.279 --> 01:37:02.079
<v Speaker 3>understand is that basically Americans are saying, I want to

1655
01:37:02.119 --> 01:37:04.600
<v Speaker 3>take care of us, I want to take care of

1656
01:37:04.680 --> 01:37:05.399
<v Speaker 3>our community.

1657
01:37:07.359 --> 01:37:10.680
<v Speaker 2>I hear you screaming out loud, brother, I can't argue

1658
01:37:10.680 --> 01:37:13.359
<v Speaker 2>a bit. I mean, it's just part of the national security.

1659
01:37:13.399 --> 01:37:15.560
<v Speaker 2>You know, we need to be able to control the

1660
01:37:15.640 --> 01:37:20.000
<v Speaker 2>influx of humanity through an orderly legal process so our

1661
01:37:20.039 --> 01:37:23.039
<v Speaker 2>cities aren't overwhelmed and the resources aren't all soaked up.

1662
01:37:23.079 --> 01:37:25.439
<v Speaker 2>As you pointed out, you know, these you know, these

1663
01:37:25.520 --> 01:37:28.520
<v Speaker 2>left wing sanctuary cities have you know, really kind of

1664
01:37:28.560 --> 01:37:32.520
<v Speaker 2>strangled themselves and ruined it, ruined life for their own populace,

1665
01:37:32.560 --> 01:37:35.119
<v Speaker 2>for their own electorate. You know, resources are going over

1666
01:37:35.159 --> 01:37:37.159
<v Speaker 2>to illegal immigrants that shouldn't have been in the country.

1667
01:37:37.159 --> 01:37:39.960
<v Speaker 2>If we had a legal, orderly process that was followed,

1668
01:37:39.960 --> 01:37:43.279
<v Speaker 2>the cities wouldn't be overwhelmed. New York City spent billions

1669
01:37:43.279 --> 01:37:46.720
<v Speaker 2>of dollars on the illegal immigrant population they have. Where

1670
01:37:46.720 --> 01:37:48.600
<v Speaker 2>do you think that money might have gone had they

1671
01:37:48.600 --> 01:37:52.520
<v Speaker 2>not been overwhelmed through their sanctuary policies with illegal immigrants

1672
01:37:52.520 --> 01:37:55.159
<v Speaker 2>shown over the doorstep. I mean, it's just a recipe

1673
01:37:55.199 --> 01:37:59.520
<v Speaker 2>for disaster. It's the point of having a legal orderly system.

1674
01:38:00.039 --> 01:38:03.840
<v Speaker 2>And anybody say says this, you're racist, that's just that

1675
01:38:03.920 --> 01:38:07.960
<v Speaker 2>is the dumbest argument. This is so dumb because people

1676
01:38:07.960 --> 01:38:10.079
<v Speaker 2>from the four corners of the globe have come across

1677
01:38:10.119 --> 01:38:13.960
<v Speaker 2>the border they're of all different races, ethnicities, creeds. There's

1678
01:38:14.000 --> 01:38:16.840
<v Speaker 2>no one size fits all. I mean, if it was

1679
01:38:16.840 --> 01:38:19.880
<v Speaker 2>a bunch of white people showing up from some white

1680
01:38:19.960 --> 01:38:23.600
<v Speaker 2>country invading our country and causing the same problem, and

1681
01:38:23.640 --> 01:38:25.359
<v Speaker 2>you and I were complaining about it, will we be

1682
01:38:25.399 --> 01:38:27.880
<v Speaker 2>called racist? I guess you'd have to take that one

1683
01:38:27.880 --> 01:38:30.600
<v Speaker 2>out of the equation. I'm sorry, you're a black man, Christopher.

1684
01:38:30.840 --> 01:38:34.319
<v Speaker 2>I mean, like, God, go back to your earlier part

1685
01:38:34.359 --> 01:38:35.159
<v Speaker 2>about racism.

1686
01:38:35.520 --> 01:38:40.960
<v Speaker 3>Yes, that's my point that they're undercurrent of what the

1687
01:38:41.159 --> 01:38:46.079
<v Speaker 3>left is saying is that if you want an orderly process,

1688
01:38:46.479 --> 01:38:51.479
<v Speaker 3>if you're saying come to our country legally in some way,

1689
01:38:51.640 --> 01:38:55.680
<v Speaker 3>that makes you a racist. It makes you a bad person.

1690
01:38:56.159 --> 01:39:00.199
<v Speaker 3>Immigrants who are here legally, who get up at every

1691
01:39:00.239 --> 01:39:04.039
<v Speaker 3>day and go to work, are frustrated that people are

1692
01:39:04.159 --> 01:39:06.359
<v Speaker 3>jumping the line because it's not what they.

1693
01:39:06.199 --> 01:39:06.760
<v Speaker 6>Had to do.

1694
01:39:07.039 --> 01:39:10.600
<v Speaker 3>They had to go through all kinds of processes in order,

1695
01:39:10.640 --> 01:39:14.359
<v Speaker 3>and it takes years to do. They're also frustrated. But

1696
01:39:14.479 --> 01:39:17.600
<v Speaker 3>I'm just saying, as an American, I am not a

1697
01:39:17.680 --> 01:39:20.960
<v Speaker 3>racist because I say I want orders, I want an

1698
01:39:21.119 --> 01:39:25.720
<v Speaker 3>orderly process to become an American citizen. I want people

1699
01:39:25.720 --> 01:39:30.039
<v Speaker 3>to come here work hard, build a great life for themselves.

1700
01:39:30.119 --> 01:39:33.159
<v Speaker 3>But I want them to do it legally. There's nothing

1701
01:39:33.199 --> 01:39:36.399
<v Speaker 3>wrong with that paragraph. And I'm saying, as we're dealing

1702
01:39:36.399 --> 01:39:39.680
<v Speaker 3>with these issues with the Ukrainian president, what a lot

1703
01:39:39.680 --> 01:39:42.560
<v Speaker 3>of people don't understand is that Americans who are getting

1704
01:39:42.680 --> 01:39:45.479
<v Speaker 3>up every day are connecting the dot and they're saying,

1705
01:39:45.520 --> 01:39:49.479
<v Speaker 3>I'm tired of taking care of everybody else. And at

1706
01:39:49.520 --> 01:39:53.239
<v Speaker 3>the same time, I'm driving through potholes, My infrastructure is

1707
01:39:53.279 --> 01:39:56.319
<v Speaker 3>falling apart. You can't even take care of the people

1708
01:39:56.520 --> 01:39:59.680
<v Speaker 3>that are here every day. That's what they don't get.

1709
01:40:00.000 --> 01:40:02.920
<v Speaker 3>It's not that America isn't generous, It's not that we

1710
01:40:03.000 --> 01:40:06.159
<v Speaker 3>don't care about what's happening in Ukraine, but we wanted

1711
01:40:06.199 --> 01:40:09.359
<v Speaker 3>somebody to come here and have a conversation with us

1712
01:40:09.439 --> 01:40:13.680
<v Speaker 3>with respect. Make sure that you understand the sacrifices that

1713
01:40:13.720 --> 01:40:16.159
<v Speaker 3>the tax payers are making. And we don't want any

1714
01:40:16.159 --> 01:40:18.319
<v Speaker 3>boots on the ground. We don't want I don't want

1715
01:40:18.359 --> 01:40:20.520
<v Speaker 3>my son who's in the military, to be on the

1716
01:40:20.560 --> 01:40:23.399
<v Speaker 3>front lines in Ukraine and die for that. That's not

1717
01:40:23.439 --> 01:40:25.920
<v Speaker 3>what I want for my son. And so what you're

1718
01:40:26.000 --> 01:40:29.439
<v Speaker 3>hearing is a country that is saying it's okay to

1719
01:40:29.520 --> 01:40:33.399
<v Speaker 3>put us first. That doesn't make us racist. It says, listen,

1720
01:40:33.680 --> 01:40:36.560
<v Speaker 3>we're gonna look out for ourselves. And I want people

1721
01:40:36.640 --> 01:40:39.880
<v Speaker 3>that are driving to work today and going in and saying, listen, man,

1722
01:40:40.119 --> 01:40:42.840
<v Speaker 3>I got to get up every day and I have

1723
01:40:42.960 --> 01:40:45.960
<v Speaker 3>to go to work. Guess what, Federal workers, You're gonna

1724
01:40:46.000 --> 01:40:48.279
<v Speaker 3>have to get up and go to work like everybody

1725
01:40:48.319 --> 01:40:50.359
<v Speaker 3>else has to get up and go to work, whether

1726
01:40:50.399 --> 01:40:53.640
<v Speaker 3>you're an immigrant who came here legally through the process

1727
01:40:53.760 --> 01:40:56.479
<v Speaker 3>or not. All we're saying is we want you to

1728
01:40:56.520 --> 01:40:59.600
<v Speaker 3>get paid for doing eight hours of work. And there's

1729
01:40:59.600 --> 01:41:02.840
<v Speaker 3>nothing wrong with that. And it doesn't make anybody your racist,

1730
01:41:03.039 --> 01:41:05.239
<v Speaker 3>It doesn't make anybody anti anything.

1731
01:41:05.359 --> 01:41:08.239
<v Speaker 2>Bryan Thomas, Well, I think they just use that race

1732
01:41:08.319 --> 01:41:12.119
<v Speaker 2>argument because it's it's what's preposterous, and people are afraid

1733
01:41:12.159 --> 01:41:14.560
<v Speaker 2>to stand up for themselves and assert the logic and

1734
01:41:14.680 --> 01:41:17.319
<v Speaker 2>reason that you're you're you're offering here in the fifty

1736
01:41:20.479 --> 01:41:22.920
<v Speaker 2>They're afraid to be labeled as something in spite of

1737
01:41:22.920 --> 01:41:28.359
<v Speaker 2>the fact that the label is a preposterous, stupid, illogical conclusion.

<v Speaker 2>Seven two the fifty five per CD talk station enjoying

1763
01:42:39.800 --> 01:42:44.159
<v Speaker 2>Christopher Smitheman's ramp this morning. He's on a tear, Christopher,

1764
01:42:46.239 --> 01:42:48.359
<v Speaker 2>anything else on your mind? You mentioned potholes in the

1765
01:42:48.439 --> 01:42:51.880
<v Speaker 2>last Segmentum briefly, Apparently the city of Cincinnati fixed six

1766
01:42:52.720 --> 01:42:56.000
<v Speaker 2>and twenty four potholes over the past couple of weeks,

1767
01:42:56.079 --> 01:42:59.319
<v Speaker 2>and there's thousands and thousands more that need to be

1768
01:42:59.640 --> 01:43:00.359
<v Speaker 2>need to be your.

1769
01:43:00.279 --> 01:43:05.720
<v Speaker 3>Dressed, I mean, I mean, Brian, we sold the railroad

1770
01:43:05.960 --> 01:43:09.960
<v Speaker 3>for one point six billion dollars. We don't know what's

1771
01:43:10.000 --> 01:43:12.960
<v Speaker 3>going on with that pot of money. They promised us

1772
01:43:13.039 --> 01:43:18.039
<v Speaker 3>that infrastructure would be would be you know, fixed, whether

1773
01:43:18.119 --> 01:43:21.920
<v Speaker 3>it's the Western Hills Viaduct which is crumbling, or whether

1774
01:43:22.199 --> 01:43:25.600
<v Speaker 3>it's the potholes that were driving around in the city

1775
01:43:25.640 --> 01:43:28.760
<v Speaker 3>of Cincinnati. It's horrible out here. I mean, the streets

1776
01:43:28.800 --> 01:43:32.479
<v Speaker 3>in Cincinnati are just horrible. But the election will happen

1777
01:43:32.920 --> 01:43:36.840
<v Speaker 3>and people will elect the same nine people and the

1778
01:43:36.960 --> 01:43:41.079
<v Speaker 3>same mayor, and they really don't want change, right. This

1779
01:43:41.119 --> 01:43:45.239
<v Speaker 3>is about leadership, right. The lack of snow removal on

1780
01:43:45.279 --> 01:43:49.319
<v Speaker 3>our side. Streets in our communities were horrible in this

1781
01:43:49.319 --> 01:43:51.800
<v Speaker 3>this past winter. I meaning, even if they got some

1782
01:43:51.920 --> 01:43:54.560
<v Speaker 3>of the main streets, there were schools that could not

1783
01:43:54.800 --> 01:43:58.319
<v Speaker 3>operate because they just weren't dug out. They didn't have

1784
01:43:58.359 --> 01:44:00.760
<v Speaker 3>a plan and it was a mess. And they really

1785
01:44:00.880 --> 01:44:04.600
<v Speaker 3>just don't have a plan for our infrastructure in our region.

1786
01:44:04.640 --> 01:44:07.199
<v Speaker 3>And this is what's happening all across the country. And

1787
01:44:07.239 --> 01:44:10.720
<v Speaker 3>that's one of the points that Americans are saying, you

1788
01:44:10.880 --> 01:44:14.760
<v Speaker 3>gotta take care of us. We live here, we're paying taxes.

1789
01:44:14.800 --> 01:44:16.600
<v Speaker 3>And so when you wake up and you say, man,

1790
01:44:16.720 --> 01:44:19.840
<v Speaker 3>you spent fifty million here, you threw eighty million here,

1791
01:44:19.920 --> 01:44:23.279
<v Speaker 3>you spent thirty five million here, and then Americans are

1792
01:44:23.520 --> 01:44:28.199
<v Speaker 3>driving around dodging potholes in their community. It absolutely makes

1793
01:44:28.239 --> 01:44:31.720
<v Speaker 3>no sense. Brian Thomas, That's what's going on right now,

1794
01:44:31.760 --> 01:44:34.880
<v Speaker 3>and people are pushing back. I am tired. Even me

1795
01:44:35.359 --> 01:44:38.600
<v Speaker 3>as an African American, people will say, well, smitheman, you're

1796
01:44:38.640 --> 01:44:40.920
<v Speaker 3>an uncle Tom. What makes me an Uncle Tom? Because

1797
01:44:40.920 --> 01:44:43.319
<v Speaker 3>I love my country? What makes me an Uncle Tom?

1798
01:44:43.359 --> 01:44:45.960
<v Speaker 3>Because I want to make sure that my children speak

1799
01:44:46.000 --> 01:44:51.000
<v Speaker 3>proper English. They pull their pants up, feel respectful. Yes, sir, no, ma'am.

1800
01:44:51.199 --> 01:44:54.199
<v Speaker 3>I mean people have lost their minds when they say

1801
01:44:54.279 --> 01:44:57.640
<v Speaker 3>excellence has anything to do with race. I want the

1802
01:44:57.680 --> 01:45:00.439
<v Speaker 3>best for my five kids. I work hard for that

1803
01:45:00.600 --> 01:45:03.479
<v Speaker 3>every single day. I don't ask anybody for anything, right,

1804
01:45:03.680 --> 01:45:06.439
<v Speaker 3>But the reality of it is, if you're standing up

1805
01:45:06.479 --> 01:45:09.199
<v Speaker 3>for your country, if you say you love the flag,

1806
01:45:09.479 --> 01:45:11.880
<v Speaker 3>if you say you want better for your kids, whether

1807
01:45:11.920 --> 01:45:14.840
<v Speaker 3>you're black or white, you're something other than just wanting

1808
01:45:14.880 --> 01:45:15.920
<v Speaker 3>to be a great American.

1809
01:45:16.079 --> 01:45:16.239
<v Speaker 4>Well.

1810
01:45:16.239 --> 01:45:18.760
<v Speaker 3>I just want everybody to know in this segment, I

1811
01:45:18.840 --> 01:45:21.439
<v Speaker 3>love this country. And if you don't like this country

1812
01:45:21.439 --> 01:45:24.119
<v Speaker 3>and you want to take a Ukrainian black and fly

1813
01:45:24.239 --> 01:45:27.640
<v Speaker 3>it somewhere, go live in Ukraine. If you say you

1814
01:45:27.800 --> 01:45:31.920
<v Speaker 3>love what's going on and you love Harmama, go to Gaza.

1815
01:45:32.039 --> 01:45:34.760
<v Speaker 3>If you say, hey, man, I don't like this country

1816
01:45:34.760 --> 01:45:36.960
<v Speaker 3>and I want to go to go to that country,

1817
01:45:37.199 --> 01:45:41.399
<v Speaker 3>We'll start a fund to fly anybody with a one

1818
01:45:41.439 --> 01:45:44.800
<v Speaker 3>way ticket out of the United States of America. I

1819
01:45:44.800 --> 01:45:47.279
<v Speaker 3>don't know if they saw what happened in Congo, but

1820
01:45:47.319 --> 01:45:50.800
<v Speaker 3>there were about seventy Christians that were beheaded about a

1821
01:45:50.880 --> 01:45:53.520
<v Speaker 3>month ago and found their bodies. So if they want

1822
01:45:53.560 --> 01:45:58.479
<v Speaker 3>to go somewhere I'm watching people in the LGBTQ plus

1823
01:45:58.520 --> 01:46:03.199
<v Speaker 3>community carrying home my flag news alert. They will cut

1824
01:46:03.239 --> 01:46:06.239
<v Speaker 3>your head off if you go into guys and tell them.

1825
01:46:06.039 --> 01:46:06.760
<v Speaker 8>That you're gay.

1826
01:46:07.079 --> 01:46:10.520
<v Speaker 3>They don't want you there. That's what makes our country

1827
01:46:10.560 --> 01:46:13.720
<v Speaker 3>so great. We're the greatest experiment in the entire world,

1828
01:46:13.800 --> 01:46:16.159
<v Speaker 3>and that's why people are trying to fly and get

1829
01:46:16.199 --> 01:46:18.760
<v Speaker 3>here to our country for a better place. But I'm

1830
01:46:18.800 --> 01:46:23.119
<v Speaker 3>tired of people dogging out our flag, dogging out our country,

1831
01:46:23.279 --> 01:46:26.199
<v Speaker 3>saying all these kinds of things because I want better.

1832
01:46:26.520 --> 01:46:29.359
<v Speaker 3>Because I want better doesn't make me an uncle tourm

1833
01:46:29.560 --> 01:46:33.000
<v Speaker 3>doesn't make you a racist, doesn't make you homophobic. Because

1834
01:46:33.039 --> 01:46:35.359
<v Speaker 3>I don't want a dude in the locker room with

1835
01:46:35.439 --> 01:46:38.520
<v Speaker 3>my daughter. I don't want a dude competing against my

1836
01:46:38.640 --> 01:46:42.760
<v Speaker 3>daughter or anybody's daughter in any sport. That's my spling

1837
01:46:42.880 --> 01:46:46.319
<v Speaker 3>vent Today. We're gonna stand up for our country, don't

1838
01:46:46.439 --> 01:46:48.760
<v Speaker 3>I think that we should support what's happening over in

1839
01:46:48.920 --> 01:46:52.920
<v Speaker 3>Ukraine in the way that we should. But guy, if

1840
01:46:52.960 --> 01:46:55.159
<v Speaker 3>you think it's okay for you to come dressed like

1841
01:46:55.199 --> 01:46:57.920
<v Speaker 3>that to the White House, you've lost your mind. I

1842
01:46:57.960 --> 01:47:02.000
<v Speaker 3>have very important meetings this week. I guarantee you I'm

1843
01:47:02.000 --> 01:47:05.399
<v Speaker 3>not going to any of those meetings in my pajamas period.

1844
01:47:05.760 --> 01:47:09.319
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna go dress respectfully, and also I'm gonna make

1845
01:47:09.359 --> 01:47:11.880
<v Speaker 3>sure that I know my audience and I have and

1846
01:47:11.920 --> 01:47:14.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm sorry, I have very high level meetings over the

1847
01:47:15.000 --> 01:47:18.359
<v Speaker 3>next five days. I'm spending time preparing for those meetings.

1848
01:47:18.439 --> 01:47:20.680
<v Speaker 3>I promise you I will not go to any of

1849
01:47:20.720 --> 01:47:25.439
<v Speaker 3>those meetings look like looking like the President of Ukraine, guarantee.

1850
01:47:25.520 --> 01:47:28.000
<v Speaker 3>And if I do, I expect that person to throw

1851
01:47:28.039 --> 01:47:29.920
<v Speaker 3>me out of their office.

1852
01:47:33.880 --> 01:47:37.760
<v Speaker 2>We landed there. That's awesome. Thank you Christopher Smithing and

1857
01:47:50.960 --> 01:47:53.079
<v Speaker 2>an interesting SoundBite to play on that one since it

1858
01:47:53.199 --> 01:47:56.479
<v Speaker 2>stems from that local story about all the potholes. Hold

1911
01:50:30.000 --> 01:50:32.760
<v Speaker 2>topics talk about with him. First quarter GDP crow for

<v Speaker 2>food prices, inflation, restaurant bankruptcies, and our four to one

1915
01:50:42.359 --> 01:50:46.239
<v Speaker 2>God bless the American veteran anyways. Springing from the local

1916
01:50:46.279 --> 01:50:49.399
<v Speaker 2>story which I just couldn't believe, the city apparently has

1917
01:50:49.479 --> 01:50:54.680
<v Speaker 2>fixed six three and twenty four count them since Friday,

1918
01:50:54.680 --> 01:50:57.840
<v Speaker 2>February twenty first. There are thousands left over, they say

1919
01:50:57.920 --> 01:51:01.560
<v Speaker 2>Fox nineteen reporting on this one. They got over one

1920
01:51:01.880 --> 01:51:05.560
<v Speaker 2>and ninety seven requests to repair potholes since Monday, and

1921
01:51:05.640 --> 01:51:10.000
<v Speaker 2>you can report potholes by calling three one one or

1922
01:51:10.439 --> 01:51:13.399
<v Speaker 2>go to Sincy with y three one one dot com.

1923
01:51:13.800 --> 01:51:16.000
<v Speaker 2>Apparently I'm encouraging people to do that. I'm sorry. Three

1924
01:51:16.000 --> 01:51:18.359
<v Speaker 2>to one one Cincy, I got that backward three one

1925
01:51:18.479 --> 01:51:21.640
<v Speaker 2>one sincey with ay dot com. But on the break

1926
01:51:21.680 --> 01:51:23.920
<v Speaker 2>after I reported there, I just read about this story.

1927
01:51:24.479 --> 01:51:27.199
<v Speaker 2>Just clearly we have a pothole problem. Of course, winter

1928
01:51:27.239 --> 01:51:30.479
<v Speaker 2>weather does exacerbate it, but I keep going back to

1929
01:51:30.600 --> 01:51:32.680
<v Speaker 2>all the roads out there that have been crumbling for

1930
01:51:32.840 --> 01:51:37.520
<v Speaker 2>years and not repaired. Generally speaking, Joe called three one one,

1931
01:51:38.760 --> 01:51:40.640
<v Speaker 2>and what did you learn when you called three one

1932
01:51:40.680 --> 01:51:42.399
<v Speaker 2>other than the fact that you can't dial three to

1933
01:51:42.399 --> 01:51:44.399
<v Speaker 2>one one from our phone system here in the office.

1934
01:51:44.479 --> 01:51:46.000
<v Speaker 2>You have to use your cell phone. He got a

1935
01:51:46.039 --> 01:51:48.439
<v Speaker 2>little concern in case, like we needed nine to one one.

1936
01:51:48.760 --> 01:51:51.279
<v Speaker 2>So there's that looming concern in the back of our minds.

1937
01:51:51.319 --> 01:51:53.920
<v Speaker 2>But Joe, what what what did you hear when you

1938
01:51:53.960 --> 01:51:54.319
<v Speaker 2>called it?

1939
01:51:55.520 --> 01:51:58.520
<v Speaker 18>The service you're attempting to use have been restricted or

1940
01:51:58.640 --> 01:52:04.199
<v Speaker 18>is unavailable. Please contact Customer Care for assistance message SD

1941
01:52:04.800 --> 01:52:08.880
<v Speaker 18>four zero four sixty five.

1942
01:52:10.399 --> 01:52:15.000
<v Speaker 2>And then it hangs up. So apparently dialing three one

1943
01:52:15.039 --> 01:52:17.640
<v Speaker 2>one you can't leave a message, and how do you

1944
01:52:17.680 --> 01:52:20.800
<v Speaker 2>reach customer service? They didn't give you a number for

1945
01:52:20.840 --> 01:52:35.479
<v Speaker 2>that either. Huh. Yes, I'm sorry that I'm just laughing,

1946
01:52:35.520 --> 01:52:37.279
<v Speaker 2>and I feel badly for the residents of the City

1947
01:52:37.319 --> 01:52:40.079
<v Speaker 2>of Cincinnati having to contend with this. But this is

1948
01:52:40.119 --> 01:52:43.760
<v Speaker 2>what the administration has brought you. They promised the solution

1949
01:52:43.840 --> 01:52:45.600
<v Speaker 2>of the problem. They promised to make it easy for

1950
01:52:45.600 --> 01:52:47.920
<v Speaker 2>you to report the potholes. I think it even came

1951
01:52:47.960 --> 01:52:50.039
<v Speaker 2>along with a promise to fix your car if your

1952
01:52:50.039 --> 01:52:51.880
<v Speaker 2>car has been damaged by a pothole. And I was

1953
01:52:52.000 --> 01:52:58.079
<v Speaker 2>joking about that last week, like, yeah, right, I'm sure

1954
01:52:57.800 --> 01:52:59.920
<v Speaker 2>that the burden of proof for you to prove that

1955
01:53:00.039 --> 01:53:02.199
<v Speaker 2>whatever damage to your car that came from the pothole

1956
01:53:02.199 --> 01:53:05.279
<v Speaker 2>actually came from the pothole and not something else is

1957
01:53:05.319 --> 01:53:07.439
<v Speaker 2>pretty high that they're not going to go around randomly

1958
01:53:07.479 --> 01:53:10.720
<v Speaker 2>issuing checks to pay for your automobile repairs because of

1959
01:53:10.760 --> 01:53:15.359
<v Speaker 2>the pothole. You hit. Sorry, bit jaded and cynical and

1960
01:53:15.359 --> 01:53:18.439
<v Speaker 2>skeptical about that, but that they tell you to call

1961
01:53:18.520 --> 01:53:20.880
<v Speaker 2>three one one to report the potholes, and that is

1962
01:53:20.920 --> 01:53:23.039
<v Speaker 2>the voice message that you get at least as of

1963
01:53:23.079 --> 01:53:28.479
<v Speaker 2>this morning. Okay, okay, I wish people would remember this

1964
01:53:28.560 --> 01:53:31.199
<v Speaker 2>kind of thing when they ended they can go to

1965
01:53:31.199 --> 01:53:37.399
<v Speaker 2>the voting polls in whenever the elections are, you get

1966
01:53:37.439 --> 01:53:42.279
<v Speaker 2>the government you vote for, not the government you deserve.

<v Speaker 1>the morning show and happy Monday to you, sir. Hope

1983
01:54:36.359 --> 01:54:37.279
<v Speaker 1>you had a wonderful weekend.

1984
01:54:37.720 --> 01:54:40.399
<v Speaker 19>Good morning, Brian Thomas, back at you and Hope you're

1985
01:54:40.399 --> 01:54:41.119
<v Speaker 19>doing well as well.

1986
01:54:41.399 --> 01:54:44.159
<v Speaker 2>I am doing great, other than the general frustrations of

1987
01:54:44.159 --> 01:54:46.079
<v Speaker 2>the political landscape and all the other topics got to

1988
01:54:46.119 --> 01:54:47.800
<v Speaker 2>deal with every day, most of which I have no

1989
01:54:47.880 --> 01:54:48.560
<v Speaker 2>control over.

1990
01:54:48.680 --> 01:54:49.680
<v Speaker 5>But before we.

1991
01:54:49.680 --> 01:54:51.399
<v Speaker 2>Get into the topics you have, I just wanted to

1992
01:54:51.439 --> 01:54:54.399
<v Speaker 2>know because I remember Nathan Backrack and I think, I

1993
01:54:54.439 --> 01:54:57.279
<v Speaker 2>know you know, they created what they called, I believe,

1994
01:54:57.359 --> 01:55:02.439
<v Speaker 2>the greased Palm Index, and they tracked the lobbying dollars

1995
01:55:03.079 --> 01:55:05.840
<v Speaker 2>the more the lobbying money was spent, and they put

1996
01:55:05.840 --> 01:55:08.920
<v Speaker 2>it into a particular fund. So the big contributors to

1997
01:55:08.960 --> 01:55:13.880
<v Speaker 2>political campaigns, ones with the most lobbying dollars were putting

1998
01:55:13.960 --> 01:55:17.119
<v Speaker 2>funds to track them to see if they grew at

1999
01:55:17.119 --> 01:55:21.520
<v Speaker 2>a faster rate than say, other index funds, which I

2000
01:55:21.520 --> 01:55:22.920
<v Speaker 2>thought was kind of a brilliant thing. I don't know

2001
01:55:22.920 --> 01:55:25.119
<v Speaker 2>how I ended up working out, but I wanted to

2002
01:55:25.159 --> 01:55:28.119
<v Speaker 2>know along those same lines, is there a Military industrial

2003
01:55:28.439 --> 01:55:33.000
<v Speaker 2>complex index, like where you got all the defense contractors

2004
01:55:33.000 --> 01:55:35.079
<v Speaker 2>put in one single fund, because it seems to me

2005
01:55:35.119 --> 01:55:36.920
<v Speaker 2>those guys are probably doing pretty well.

2006
01:55:38.880 --> 01:55:42.439
<v Speaker 19>Yeah, that's a great observation, and yeah, I'm sure there is.

2007
01:55:42.520 --> 01:55:44.760
<v Speaker 19>That's not something I pay attention to directly, but I

2008
01:55:44.760 --> 01:55:47.359
<v Speaker 19>can guarantee you that there is somebody out there that

2009
01:55:47.439 --> 01:55:50.600
<v Speaker 19>has built a pile of investments around any idea that

2010
01:55:50.680 --> 01:55:53.640
<v Speaker 19>anyone might might assume is getting a lot of money

2011
01:55:53.680 --> 01:55:55.880
<v Speaker 19>thrown at it. So there are all kinds of investment

2012
01:55:55.880 --> 01:55:58.199
<v Speaker 19>products that focus on industries and things like that. And

2013
01:55:58.239 --> 01:56:00.359
<v Speaker 19>as you mentioned, yeah, I'm not sure whatever happen to

2014
01:56:00.359 --> 01:56:02.560
<v Speaker 19>it either. Maybe they don't pay attention as much anymore

2015
01:56:02.840 --> 01:56:05.600
<v Speaker 19>now that they're retired. Yes, I do recall the idea

2016
01:56:05.640 --> 01:56:08.479
<v Speaker 19>behind let's go follow who gets money thrown at them

2017
01:56:08.800 --> 01:56:11.039
<v Speaker 19>and invest in those different areas. And yeah, of course,

2018
01:56:11.039 --> 01:56:13.800
<v Speaker 19>anytime there is spending, there's going to be an equal

2019
01:56:13.800 --> 01:56:17.079
<v Speaker 19>and opposite reaction in the investment underlying value.

2020
01:56:16.800 --> 01:56:18.800
<v Speaker 2>No doubt about it. All right, let us move over

2021
01:56:18.840 --> 01:56:20.800
<v Speaker 2>to the topics you actually present it to me. Appreciate

2022
01:56:20.840 --> 01:56:24.079
<v Speaker 2>you indulging me on that. Though first quarter GDP growth

2023
01:56:24.119 --> 01:56:27.960
<v Speaker 2>looks like, according to CNBC, on track for negative growth.

2024
01:56:29.079 --> 01:56:29.880
<v Speaker 20>Well go figure.

2025
01:56:30.119 --> 01:56:32.720
<v Speaker 19>When you add a bunch of costs in things in

2026
01:56:32.800 --> 01:56:35.319
<v Speaker 19>terms of tariffs and we start to get the talking

2027
01:56:35.359 --> 01:56:38.399
<v Speaker 19>heads and the projections coming out, we're starting to see

2028
01:56:38.600 --> 01:56:42.279
<v Speaker 19>the possibility of negative growth predictions. So Atlanta FED is

2029
01:56:42.319 --> 01:56:44.720
<v Speaker 19>now predicting that we're going to see the GDP shrink

2030
01:56:44.800 --> 01:56:46.880
<v Speaker 19>by about one and a half percent here in the

2031
01:56:47.279 --> 01:56:50.840
<v Speaker 19>first quarter of twenty twenty five. They're kind of known

2032
01:56:50.920 --> 01:56:54.960
<v Speaker 19>for this. This particular tracker is always leans toward the

2033
01:56:55.039 --> 01:56:58.039
<v Speaker 19>volatility side, and it usually becomes a little clearer later

2034
01:56:58.119 --> 01:57:00.000
<v Speaker 19>in the quarter. But still, this is just kind of

2035
01:57:00.199 --> 01:57:02.560
<v Speaker 19>a warning of what shouldn't be too shocking. Even the

2036
01:57:02.600 --> 01:57:04.439
<v Speaker 19>President himself came out and said there could be some

2037
01:57:04.479 --> 01:57:07.079
<v Speaker 19>pain here on the front end as they implement the

2038
01:57:07.079 --> 01:57:07.920
<v Speaker 19>things that they want to do.

2039
01:57:08.119 --> 01:57:09.279
<v Speaker 20>So where this is coming from.

2040
01:57:09.560 --> 01:57:12.720
<v Speaker 19>Consumers spent a little less than expected in January and

2041
01:57:12.800 --> 01:57:15.640
<v Speaker 19>that led to a downgrade and growth predictions in the GDP.

2042
01:57:16.000 --> 01:57:20.119
<v Speaker 19>Exports dropped a bit too, and some other places as well.

2043
01:57:19.880 --> 01:57:20.880
<v Speaker 20>We've all heard about the.

2044
01:57:20.880 --> 01:57:24.399
<v Speaker 19>Egg prices and inflation popping up in certain places too.

2045
01:57:24.399 --> 01:57:26.439
<v Speaker 19>But yeah, this is all coming together to make it

2046
01:57:26.479 --> 01:57:28.560
<v Speaker 19>look like it could be a bumpy first Quarterbran.

2047
01:57:28.560 --> 01:57:31.760
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, I have to observe. When people's extra money,

2048
01:57:31.800 --> 01:57:33.840
<v Speaker 2>to the extent they have any disposable income, is being

2049
01:57:33.880 --> 01:57:37.119
<v Speaker 2>sucked up by increased property taxes and increased energy bills,

2050
01:57:37.600 --> 01:57:39.479
<v Speaker 2>you're not going to be participating in the economy and

2051
01:57:39.560 --> 01:57:42.920
<v Speaker 2>keeping our consumption economy going.

2052
01:57:44.399 --> 01:57:46.640
<v Speaker 19>Yeah, that's true. It all plays together. All the puzzle

2053
01:57:46.640 --> 01:57:49.159
<v Speaker 19>pieces got to fit one way or another. So there's

2054
01:57:49.199 --> 01:57:51.319
<v Speaker 19>a lot of impacts here coming from a bunch of

2055
01:57:51.319 --> 01:57:53.960
<v Speaker 19>different directions, just all the data we have now, and

2056
01:57:54.159 --> 01:57:56.640
<v Speaker 19>we have a new administration that is shaping data and

2057
01:57:56.680 --> 01:57:58.840
<v Speaker 19>looking at it differently. They even saw a reference to

2058
01:57:59.600 --> 01:58:02.640
<v Speaker 19>the possible ability that they may split out government spending

2059
01:58:02.840 --> 01:58:04.920
<v Speaker 19>from the GDP calculation.

2060
01:58:05.399 --> 01:58:06.800
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, purportedly to.

2061
01:58:07.920 --> 01:58:10.000
<v Speaker 19>Get shine a little a brighter light on where the

2062
01:58:10.000 --> 01:58:12.039
<v Speaker 19>money comes from and where it all goes. But that's

2063
01:58:12.079 --> 01:58:14.880
<v Speaker 19>going to be yet another indicator we all have to

2064
01:58:14.880 --> 01:58:17.159
<v Speaker 19>pay attention to when people are still struggling to understand

2065
01:58:17.159 --> 01:58:18.199
<v Speaker 19>the ones that come out every day.

2066
01:58:18.199 --> 01:58:20.840
<v Speaker 2>Now, I would love to know that figure. I'm surprised

2067
01:58:20.880 --> 01:58:22.000
<v Speaker 2>that hasn't been done yet.

2068
01:58:22.840 --> 01:58:24.960
<v Speaker 19>I think it gets done, it just doesn't get broadcast.

2069
01:58:25.000 --> 01:58:27.239
<v Speaker 19>We talk about GDP every quarter. I mean there are

2070
01:58:27.279 --> 01:58:30.119
<v Speaker 19>websites out there. All this stuff is freely available to

2071
01:58:30.159 --> 01:58:31.960
<v Speaker 19>anybody who wants to dig it up, but the media

2072
01:58:32.000 --> 01:58:34.119
<v Speaker 19>doesn't pick up on that. We like our simple bullet

2073
01:58:34.119 --> 01:58:37.439
<v Speaker 19>points and our soundbites and things, and that's always been

2074
01:58:37.479 --> 01:58:40.239
<v Speaker 19>what is the GDP as opposed to all the different

2075
01:58:40.279 --> 01:58:41.479
<v Speaker 19>derivatives of the GDP.

2076
01:58:41.640 --> 01:58:43.119
<v Speaker 20>So, yeah, those numbers are out there.

2077
01:58:43.199 --> 01:58:45.439
<v Speaker 19>It would be good to see how much of our

2078
01:58:45.720 --> 01:58:50.800
<v Speaker 19>GDP purportedly is grown by actual little government spending, so

2079
01:58:50.840 --> 01:58:52.319
<v Speaker 19>that we know what the impact is going to be

2080
01:58:52.319 --> 01:58:54.000
<v Speaker 19>when we choose not to spend that way anymore.

2081
01:58:54.039 --> 01:58:55.640
<v Speaker 2>Well, I know, but I mean you think about like

2082
01:58:55.880 --> 01:59:00.359
<v Speaker 2>the green industrial complex as I called it earlier, that

2083
01:59:00.760 --> 01:59:03.960
<v Speaker 2>is basically fully supported by the government and government spending.

2084
01:59:04.159 --> 01:59:05.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, a lot of these companies woudn't even exist

2085
01:59:05.960 --> 01:59:09.399
<v Speaker 2>but for the government and fusion of our taxpayer dollars.

2086
01:59:09.920 --> 01:59:11.439
<v Speaker 19>Yeah, there's a lot of there's a lot of that

2087
01:59:11.439 --> 01:59:13.439
<v Speaker 19>out there. Matter of fact, some of your largest companies,

2088
01:59:13.479 --> 01:59:16.319
<v Speaker 19>your your sexiest stories of the last decade have come

2089
01:59:16.359 --> 01:59:19.000
<v Speaker 19>with a lot of government investment, and our you know,

2090
01:59:19.079 --> 01:59:23.079
<v Speaker 19>our President in chief, Elon Musk, is no stranger to that.

2091
01:59:23.439 --> 01:59:25.960
<v Speaker 19>A lot of the dollars that went into Tesla came

2092
01:59:26.000 --> 01:59:28.439
<v Speaker 19>from the same came from those same green budgets as

2093
01:59:28.479 --> 01:59:31.159
<v Speaker 19>well as heaven those that SpaceX has taken a lot

2094
01:59:31.199 --> 01:59:32.880
<v Speaker 19>of dollars from the federal government because they do a

2095
01:59:32.920 --> 01:59:33.479
<v Speaker 19>lot of things that.

2096
01:59:33.479 --> 01:59:36.199
<v Speaker 2>NASA used to do. Yeah, but more efficiently.

2097
01:59:37.479 --> 01:59:38.439
<v Speaker 20>That's true. That's true.

2098
01:59:38.439 --> 01:59:41.279
<v Speaker 19>So there is a negative thing, but it's something we've

2099
01:59:41.319 --> 01:59:42.479
<v Speaker 19>never paid attention to before.

2100
01:59:42.520 --> 01:59:46.079
<v Speaker 2>To your point earlier, Yeah, those astronauts are still stranded

2101
01:59:46.119 --> 01:59:48.479
<v Speaker 2>up in space too. I must observe on that or not.

2102
01:59:48.479 --> 01:59:50.560
<v Speaker 2>Not a comical note. I feel sorry for those folks,

2103
01:59:50.560 --> 01:59:52.359
<v Speaker 2>But if you can't do it yourself, you've got to

2104
01:59:52.359 --> 01:59:58.680
<v Speaker 2>rely on outsourced companies and maybe do it more efficiently. Anyhow, Now,

2105
01:59:58.760 --> 02:00:01.399
<v Speaker 2>in terms of the first quarter being on track for

2106
02:00:01.439 --> 02:00:03.800
<v Speaker 2>negative GDP growth, is that an indication that the FED

2107
02:00:03.880 --> 02:00:05.039
<v Speaker 2>might lower interest rates?

2108
02:00:06.159 --> 02:00:08.880
<v Speaker 19>Could be, But the other thing the FED has to

2109
02:00:08.880 --> 02:00:11.279
<v Speaker 19>worry about is we want to keep the economy running,

2110
02:00:11.279 --> 02:00:12.640
<v Speaker 19>but we also have to worry about inflation.

2111
02:00:12.720 --> 02:00:14.399
<v Speaker 20>That's really the Fed's job, those two things.

2112
02:00:14.479 --> 02:00:16.199
<v Speaker 19>Let's make sure everybody has a job, and let's make

2113
02:00:16.199 --> 02:00:18.600
<v Speaker 19>sure inflation's under control when you really boil it down,

2114
02:00:18.680 --> 02:00:22.199
<v Speaker 19>that's the goal. So when we're talking about inflation being

2115
02:00:22.239 --> 02:00:25.039
<v Speaker 19>a factor in all this in the slowdown, that does

2116
02:00:25.079 --> 02:00:27.239
<v Speaker 19>not indicate that we're going to see further rate cuts

2117
02:00:27.279 --> 02:00:29.359
<v Speaker 19>anytime soon, And I would say we're I don't think

2118
02:00:29.399 --> 02:00:32.640
<v Speaker 19>that has changed in the past several weeks, because inflation

2119
02:00:32.800 --> 02:00:33.319
<v Speaker 19>really is.

2120
02:00:33.680 --> 02:00:34.880
<v Speaker 20>It's very sensitive right.

2121
02:00:34.840 --> 02:00:36.560
<v Speaker 19>Now, It's not going to take much of an impact

2122
02:00:36.560 --> 02:00:39.720
<v Speaker 19>of anything, as we've already seen to drive prices back

2123
02:00:39.800 --> 02:00:41.800
<v Speaker 19>up where we were a few years ago. So I

2124
02:00:41.800 --> 02:00:43.439
<v Speaker 19>don't think we're at a point yet where we're on

2125
02:00:43.520 --> 02:00:46.159
<v Speaker 19>the brink of that happening. But we're also definitely not

2126
02:00:46.199 --> 02:00:48.920
<v Speaker 19>an environment where we're going to see a rate cut tomorrow.

2127
02:00:48.840 --> 02:00:51.399
<v Speaker 2>Well other than the real estate market, because if you

2128
02:00:51.439 --> 02:00:53.520
<v Speaker 2>lower the interest rates and it has an impact on

2129
02:00:53.720 --> 02:00:59.680
<v Speaker 2>the current real estate interest rate, how else is the

2130
02:00:59.720 --> 02:01:02.479
<v Speaker 2>interest straight from the Fed? How does that impact inflation?

2131
02:01:02.640 --> 02:01:07.600
<v Speaker 19>Generally speaking, Well, any cost of anything has to do

2132
02:01:07.760 --> 02:01:10.039
<v Speaker 19>with what is it cost to produce that good or

2133
02:01:10.079 --> 02:01:11.640
<v Speaker 19>service it and to begin with, So if there's a

2134
02:01:11.640 --> 02:01:14.600
<v Speaker 19>company out there that has borrowed money to pay its employees,

2135
02:01:14.640 --> 02:01:16.800
<v Speaker 19>to build its factories, to do whatever it needs to do,

2136
02:01:17.039 --> 02:01:20.159
<v Speaker 19>then that is a factor that's that will ultimately trickle through.

2137
02:01:20.199 --> 02:01:22.840
<v Speaker 19>Everything trickles down to the consumers. So you have the

2138
02:01:22.880 --> 02:01:25.840
<v Speaker 19>producers and the consumers. The consumer's got to pay the bills,

2139
02:01:25.880 --> 02:01:28.880
<v Speaker 19>including all the taxes. No different than if your property

2140
02:01:28.880 --> 02:01:31.720
<v Speaker 19>taxes go up and you're renting an apartment, you won't

2141
02:01:31.760 --> 02:01:33.399
<v Speaker 19>think that, hey, I got to pay a bigger.

2142
02:01:33.159 --> 02:01:34.039
<v Speaker 20>Property tax bill.

2143
02:01:34.119 --> 02:01:35.960
<v Speaker 19>No, you don't have a property tax bill, but your

2144
02:01:35.960 --> 02:01:37.800
<v Speaker 19>rent's going to go up because your landlord's going to

2145
02:01:37.840 --> 02:01:40.000
<v Speaker 19>take it from you. That's the same thing that happens

2146
02:01:40.239 --> 02:01:42.840
<v Speaker 19>to every consumer in every corner of the world everywhere,

2147
02:01:42.880 --> 02:01:45.600
<v Speaker 19>because all those costs get passed down. So that's where

2148
02:01:45.640 --> 02:01:47.520
<v Speaker 19>the impact will be seen, and you have to look

2149
02:01:47.520 --> 02:01:48.720
<v Speaker 19>closely to see it sometimes.

2150
02:01:49.159 --> 02:01:51.399
<v Speaker 2>All right, fair enough, Well, I take an early break

2151
02:01:51.439 --> 02:01:54.239
<v Speaker 2>here because we want to talk about food prices and inflation,

2152
02:01:54.439 --> 02:01:56.600
<v Speaker 2>which I think has to tie in with the next

2153
02:01:56.600 --> 02:01:59.359
<v Speaker 2>topic we'll do in the next segment, which is expect

2154
02:01:59.439 --> 02:02:03.000
<v Speaker 2>restaurant bankruptcies. So we've seen quite a few of those lates,

2155
02:02:03.039 --> 02:02:04.720
<v Speaker 2>so let's pause a little bit early. We'll bring back

2156
02:02:04.720 --> 02:02:07.640
<v Speaker 2>Brian James and talk about those. After I mentioned my

2157
02:02:07.680 --> 02:02:09.600
<v Speaker 2>dear friends at twenty two three Route forty two between

2158
02:02:09.600 --> 02:02:12.359
<v Speaker 2>Mason eleven and I got a special email from Wendy.

2159
02:02:12.479 --> 02:02:15.600
<v Speaker 2>She's the owner along with Jeff. I just think the

2160
02:02:15.600 --> 02:02:17.800
<v Speaker 2>world of both Wendy and Jeff and just to run

2161

2162
02:02:21.239 --> 02:02:24.880

2163
02:02:24.920 --> 02:02:27.840
<v Speaker 2>This opportunity to save money, but man, she has a

2164
02:02:28.199 --> 02:02:32.680
<v Speaker 2>huge selection of pre owned guns like rifles, has more

2165
02:02:32.720 --> 02:02:35.439
<v Speaker 2>than forty and everything from an Ithaca saddle gun to

2166
02:02:35.479 --> 02:02:38.399
<v Speaker 2>a modern Daniel Defense MV four to seven if you

2167
02:02:38.439 --> 02:02:41.960
<v Speaker 2>know what that is. Shotguns like eight seventies and Browning

2168

2170
02:02:49.720 --> 02:02:53.000
<v Speaker 2>not sure what those are. But pistols, Yeah, about one

2171

2189
02:03:47.399 --> 02:03:49.680
<v Speaker 21>and sadly something I'm painfully aware of. I do go

2190
02:03:49.720 --> 02:03:53.439
<v Speaker 21>grocery shopping every week with my wife, and food prices

2191
02:03:53.920 --> 02:03:57.119
<v Speaker 21>have gone up precipitously, and most notably I just look

2192
02:03:57.119 --> 02:03:59.399
<v Speaker 21>at the price of beef quite often. I'll just pick

2193
02:03:59.479 --> 02:04:01.800
<v Speaker 21>up a package just to see where it is in

2194
02:04:01.880 --> 02:04:04.199
<v Speaker 21>terms of how much price per pound, and then put

2195
02:04:04.199 --> 02:04:06.640
<v Speaker 21>it back down to the beat section, just because it's

2196
02:04:06.640 --> 02:04:10.399
<v Speaker 21>just like it's mind blowing. And eggs, of course we

2197
02:04:10.439 --> 02:04:12.640
<v Speaker 21>can blame bird flu for that. I mean there's no

2198
02:04:13.079 --> 02:04:14.840
<v Speaker 21>I don't think there's a relationship with the price of

2199
02:04:14.880 --> 02:04:17.319
<v Speaker 21>eggs and inflation more so than they've just been slaughtering

2200
02:04:17.319 --> 02:04:19.880
<v Speaker 21>all the chickens because of bird flu. But what's the

2201
02:04:19.920 --> 02:04:22.399
<v Speaker 21>story from Walmart's CEO on food prices.

2202
02:04:23.439 --> 02:04:25.560
<v Speaker 19>Doug mc millan's not in a good mood this morning,

2203
02:04:25.680 --> 02:04:28.119
<v Speaker 19>so he's the CEO of Walmart, and he's highlighting that

2204
02:04:28.199 --> 02:04:30.640
<v Speaker 19>strain that's coming up on American consumers due to this.

2205
02:04:30.680 --> 02:04:32.720
<v Speaker 19>So yeah, we're not shocked at this. I even paying

2206
02:04:32.720 --> 02:04:34.399
<v Speaker 19>attention to the headlines at all. It's been hard to

2207
02:04:34.439 --> 02:04:36.880
<v Speaker 19>avoid whichever side of it you're on. It's been hard

2208
02:04:36.880 --> 02:04:40.199
<v Speaker 19>to avoid the discussion about egg prices. But Doug, who

2209
02:04:40.239 --> 02:04:42.159
<v Speaker 19>is paying attention of course to how much money his

2210
02:04:42.199 --> 02:04:45.159
<v Speaker 19>company is making, as that is his job, is seeing

2211
02:04:45.199 --> 02:04:48.239
<v Speaker 19>he's a good predictor of what people are doing.

2212
02:04:48.000 --> 02:04:49.960
<v Speaker 20>There at the cash register there.

2213
02:04:50.000 --> 02:04:53.199
<v Speaker 19>So we're seeing impact on things like beef and eggs,

2214
02:04:53.279 --> 02:04:57.119
<v Speaker 19>non alcoholic beverages, sugar and sweets. Sugar is up almost

2215
02:04:57.159 --> 02:04:59.680
<v Speaker 19>six and a half percent. We're seeing non alcoholic beverages

2216
02:04:59.720 --> 02:05:02.800
<v Speaker 19>up to four percent, of beef and veal we're looking

2217
02:05:02.800 --> 02:05:04.039
<v Speaker 19>at to be of about three percent.

2218
02:05:04.119 --> 02:05:05.520
<v Speaker 20>Now, these are all facts.

2219
02:05:05.319 --> 02:05:07.279
<v Speaker 19>And when we can find these anywhere, I think it's

2220
02:05:07.279 --> 02:05:09.079
<v Speaker 19>more impactful at least worth talking about.

2221
02:05:09.079 --> 02:05:12.159
<v Speaker 20>Brian to what should somebody do about this?

2222
02:05:12.560 --> 02:05:15.239
<v Speaker 19>This question comes up all the time in the course

2223
02:05:15.279 --> 02:05:17.479
<v Speaker 19>of my day as a financial planner. People want to

2224
02:05:17.479 --> 02:05:19.399
<v Speaker 19>know them is it time for me to worry about this?

2225
02:05:19.520 --> 02:05:21.479
<v Speaker 19>What should I be doing about this? Inflation I keep

2226
02:05:21.479 --> 02:05:24.760
<v Speaker 19>hearing about. My question is always Okay, what were you

2227
02:05:24.840 --> 02:05:27.399
<v Speaker 19>spending on all of these items before? Then we can

2228
02:05:27.399 --> 02:05:29.279
<v Speaker 19>figure out what the impact is going to be. And

2229
02:05:29.359 --> 02:05:32.000
<v Speaker 19>most of the time, and this is a necessarily bad thing.

2230
02:05:32.199 --> 02:05:34.720
<v Speaker 19>Most of the time, people have no idea because we've

2231
02:05:34.760 --> 02:05:35.560
<v Speaker 19>not kept budgets.

2232
02:05:35.560 --> 02:05:36.560
<v Speaker 20>We don't know where we are.

2233
02:05:37.039 --> 02:05:39.600
<v Speaker 19>So that's a great first step is to understand where

2234
02:05:39.640 --> 02:05:41.920
<v Speaker 19>your money's going in the first place, so that you

2235
02:05:41.960 --> 02:05:44.640
<v Speaker 19>can model out some impact and figure out whether you

2236
02:05:44.720 --> 02:05:47.159
<v Speaker 19>really need to worry about this or just be mad

2237
02:05:47.159 --> 02:05:47.960
<v Speaker 19>at the cash register.

2238
02:05:48.399 --> 02:05:51.039
<v Speaker 2>Well, I guess part of me I want to react

2239
02:05:51.039 --> 02:05:55.159
<v Speaker 2>by saying, Okay, I'm glad sugary beverages are more expensive,

2240
02:05:55.199 --> 02:05:58.680
<v Speaker 2>and I'm glad people are buying fewer of them because

2241
02:05:58.720 --> 02:06:02.119
<v Speaker 2>that's a discretionary item. You don't need mountain dew in

2242
02:06:02.159 --> 02:06:04.479
<v Speaker 2>your life, right, I mean, I'm kind of been on

2243
02:06:04.479 --> 02:06:06.960
<v Speaker 2>a sugar tear of late. But in the final analysis,

2244
02:06:07.199 --> 02:06:10.000
<v Speaker 2>if you need nutrition to stay alive, you need certain calories.

2245
02:06:10.000 --> 02:06:12.199
<v Speaker 2>Hopefully your calories are coming from something that's good for you.

2246
02:06:12.279 --> 02:06:15.039
<v Speaker 2>But rather than buying mountain dew, maybe you just drink

2247
02:06:15.039 --> 02:06:16.840
<v Speaker 2>a glass of water. Is your life going to be

2248
02:06:16.880 --> 02:06:19.199
<v Speaker 2>really impacted to the negative for that, No, I would

2249
02:06:19.239 --> 02:06:21.239
<v Speaker 2>say it's going to be a positive result. I don't

2250
02:06:21.239 --> 02:06:23.199
<v Speaker 2>know if that's baked into this cake, if that's by

2251
02:06:23.359 --> 02:06:27.119
<v Speaker 2>design or intention, but you know, maybe it'll force people

2252
02:06:27.159 --> 02:06:30.000
<v Speaker 2>to make more responsible choices because your dollar is not

2253
02:06:30.159 --> 02:06:32.119
<v Speaker 2>going as far at the grocery store.

2254
02:06:32.960 --> 02:06:34.760
<v Speaker 19>Yeah, and we will see that impact. We've seen that

2255
02:06:34.800 --> 02:06:37.359
<v Speaker 19>happen before when we've had price bikes. People do tend

2256
02:06:37.399 --> 02:06:40.880
<v Speaker 19>to change their behavior, and I, personally, I don't believe

2257
02:06:40.920 --> 02:06:44.800
<v Speaker 19>this is part of any engineered change of behavior by

2258
02:06:44.840 --> 02:06:47.479
<v Speaker 19>any administration. It's just I think we've got an administration

2259
02:06:47.520 --> 02:06:50.359
<v Speaker 19>that truly just cares about let's make this country as

2260
02:06:50.399 --> 02:06:53.720
<v Speaker 19>successful from a commercial and business standpoint as it possibly can,

2261
02:06:53.800 --> 02:06:56.399
<v Speaker 19>and they're making decisions to move us in that direction.

2262
02:06:56.920 --> 02:07:00.279
<v Speaker 19>These are again not designed results, but it's it's just

2263
02:07:00.279 --> 02:07:01.199
<v Speaker 19>simply what's happening.

2264
02:07:01.199 --> 02:07:01.640
<v Speaker 20>I agree with you.

2265
02:07:01.680 --> 02:07:03.760
<v Speaker 19>If people bought less sugar and less and less stuff

2266
02:07:03.800 --> 02:07:06.680
<v Speaker 19>like that, we're probably in a better spot. But the

2267
02:07:06.760 --> 02:07:09.279
<v Speaker 19>fact that we're seeing inflation increasing on those indicates that

2268
02:07:09.319 --> 02:07:12.279
<v Speaker 19>demand may be rising the companies. Companies may be buying more.

2269
02:07:12.319 --> 02:07:14.960
<v Speaker 19>It's not necessarily people buying bags of sugar. It could

2270
02:07:14.960 --> 02:07:17.880
<v Speaker 19>be companies buying it more at a commodity level and

2271
02:07:18.000 --> 02:07:20.319
<v Speaker 19>because they feel like that's where they can make their

2272
02:07:20.319 --> 02:07:21.960
<v Speaker 19>profits fair enough.

2273
02:07:21.960 --> 02:07:24.119
<v Speaker 2>On that, I got a kick out of his observation

2274
02:07:24.279 --> 02:07:28.399
<v Speaker 2>that you see people are buying smaller pack sizes than

2275
02:07:28.439 --> 02:07:31.840
<v Speaker 2>they used to, but with shrinkflation, they were doing that anyway,

2276
02:07:31.880 --> 02:07:34.039
<v Speaker 2>even if they wanted the family sized bag. The family

2277
02:07:34.079 --> 02:07:36.399
<v Speaker 2>size bag now on contains twelve ounces where it used

2278
02:07:36.439 --> 02:07:39.640
<v Speaker 2>to contain eighteen ounces or something along those lines. I

2279
02:07:39.680 --> 02:07:42.359
<v Speaker 2>just thought that was an interesting comment, given that we

2280
02:07:42.439 --> 02:07:44.159
<v Speaker 2>all lived through shrinkflation.

2281
02:07:44.760 --> 02:07:45.800
<v Speaker 20>Right, Yeah, and it is.

2282
02:07:46.039 --> 02:07:49.560
<v Speaker 19>That's another cycle that we see too, when it's harder

2283
02:07:49.600 --> 02:07:52.479
<v Speaker 19>for companies to make money off of off of the

2284
02:07:52.800 --> 02:07:55.159
<v Speaker 19>original sizes and things that they were making. One way

2285
02:07:55.199 --> 02:07:57.039
<v Speaker 19>and they know they can't push the button and sell more,

2286
02:07:57.279 --> 02:07:59.680
<v Speaker 19>another way can be to make it cheaper to sell

2287
02:07:59.680 --> 02:08:03.479
<v Speaker 19>the same amount by putting smaller projects inside smaller products,

2288
02:08:03.520 --> 02:08:05.439
<v Speaker 19>inside little packages that they won't notice.

2289
02:08:05.479 --> 02:08:08.640
<v Speaker 2>I remember a commercial about that the guy that saved

2290
02:08:08.640 --> 02:08:10.760
<v Speaker 2>the company one hundred million dollars a year by taking

2291
02:08:10.880 --> 02:08:13.000
<v Speaker 2>like one olive out of the olive jar.

2292
02:08:13.159 --> 02:08:17.439
<v Speaker 19>You know, y and airlines make their take the tomatoes

2293
02:08:17.479 --> 02:08:20.479
<v Speaker 19>off of their off of their rubber chicken sandwiches and

2294
02:08:20.479 --> 02:08:21.399
<v Speaker 19>saved billions of dollars.

2295
02:08:21.479 --> 02:08:22.760
<v Speaker 20>Yeah, yeah, it does add up.

2296
02:08:22.800 --> 02:08:24.560
<v Speaker 2>It does does make sense in the long run, every

2297
02:08:24.600 --> 02:08:27.159
<v Speaker 2>little bit counts, all right. Pivoting over to restaurants, and

2298
02:08:27.199 --> 02:08:31.399
<v Speaker 2>I've observed this also. Carry out has gotten really expensive

2299
02:08:31.479 --> 02:08:35.039
<v Speaker 2>compared to the not that long ago. Even we it's

2300
02:08:35.079 --> 02:08:36.880
<v Speaker 2>an Asian restaurant, and I don't think there was a

2301
02:08:36.920 --> 02:08:39.720
<v Speaker 2>single entree that was less than like twenty two dollars.

2302
02:08:39.720 --> 02:08:43.159
<v Speaker 2>And we're talking about just standard, you know, Chinese food

2303
02:08:43.239 --> 02:08:45.239
<v Speaker 2>kind of orders and that that is just like mind

2304
02:08:45.239 --> 02:08:47.560
<v Speaker 2>blowing to me. But that's the direction that's gone. But

2305
02:08:47.960 --> 02:08:50.520
<v Speaker 2>more and more are going bankrupt too.

2306
02:08:51.680 --> 02:08:53.960
<v Speaker 19>Yeah, we're seeing that bankruptcy is coming out of but

2307
02:08:54.000 --> 02:08:57.079
<v Speaker 19>a lot of these are older names, so it's not

2308
02:08:57.920 --> 02:08:59.600
<v Speaker 19>I don't think we're yet at a point where all

2309
02:08:59.680 --> 02:09:03.279
<v Speaker 19>of it is a totally their fault of inflation and

2310
02:09:03.319 --> 02:09:05.000
<v Speaker 19>so forth. These are things that have kind of run

2311
02:09:05.039 --> 02:09:08.039
<v Speaker 19>their course. So the big one, big ones we've seen recently,

2312
02:09:08.199 --> 02:09:11.840
<v Speaker 19>TGI Fridays, Denny's, Ruby Tuesday, Red Lobster, all of them

2313
02:09:11.840 --> 02:09:15.239
<v Speaker 19>have filed for bankruptcy protection. Hooters hit the headlines as

2314
02:09:15.279 --> 02:09:19.880
<v Speaker 19>of this morning. Their food sucked though exactly. You know

2315
02:09:19.920 --> 02:09:22.159
<v Speaker 19>the only thing that I ever liked about Hooters their

2316
02:09:22.199 --> 02:09:24.359
<v Speaker 19>mild sauce with it was a jar of death, but

2317
02:09:24.399 --> 02:09:26.199
<v Speaker 19>it was really good. Oh, I think you're got a

2318
02:09:26.239 --> 02:09:28.840
<v Speaker 19>good buffalo sauce with butter in it, which is, you know,

2319
02:09:28.880 --> 02:09:30.520
<v Speaker 19>good in the long run, but not so much of.

2320
02:09:30.520 --> 02:09:32.560
<v Speaker 2>The schwartz had nothing to do with the wait staff.

2321
02:09:33.439 --> 02:09:33.960
<v Speaker 10>Now this is.

2322
02:09:34.039 --> 02:09:36.319
<v Speaker 20>Off the shelf at Kruger. Still get it.

2323
02:09:37.920 --> 02:09:40.840
<v Speaker 2>With Yes, they out of trouble, ran James. Well, you

2324
02:09:40.880 --> 02:09:45.000
<v Speaker 2>know this this could be I mean, I understand the COVID.

2325
02:09:45.039 --> 02:09:48.439
<v Speaker 2>They required to borrow money to stay open, and they

2326
02:09:48.520 --> 02:09:51.119
<v Speaker 2>got you know, debt service on that. I mean, I

2327
02:09:51.159 --> 02:09:53.720
<v Speaker 2>note the article says this meant companies accumulated debt they

2328
02:09:53.760 --> 02:09:56.560
<v Speaker 2>had to pay back over time plus interest. Someone wrote

2329
02:09:56.640 --> 02:09:59.000
<v Speaker 2>us government right next to that. Oh right, that was me.

2330
02:09:59.640 --> 02:10:04.159
<v Speaker 2>But there's more competition out there, and there are better

2331
02:10:04.239 --> 02:10:06.680
<v Speaker 2>products going back to Hooters. If you can go someplace

2332
02:10:06.720 --> 02:10:10.199
<v Speaker 2>down the street that has superior chicken wings, then you're

2333
02:10:10.199 --> 02:10:13.399
<v Speaker 2>gonna go there, right, And that's what.

2334
02:10:13.359 --> 02:10:15.840
<v Speaker 19>I was hinting at before with these these are older chains.

2335
02:10:15.880 --> 02:10:18.840
<v Speaker 19>Restaurants do run their courses and there are some icons

2336
02:10:18.840 --> 02:10:21.239
<v Speaker 19>that never go away. But if you just look over time,

2337
02:10:21.279 --> 02:10:24.520
<v Speaker 19>there aren't any restaurants that have been aside from these,

2338
02:10:24.600 --> 02:10:27.479
<v Speaker 19>you know, ridiculously long family owned type stories that have

2339
02:10:27.600 --> 02:10:29.640
<v Speaker 19>been in existence for one hundred hundred and fifty years.

2340
02:10:29.680 --> 02:10:31.840
<v Speaker 19>It generally doesn't work that way. They last a few

2341
02:10:31.840 --> 02:10:35.079
<v Speaker 19>decades at most. That's a huge success story, but eventually

2342
02:10:35.119 --> 02:10:38.840
<v Speaker 19>people's taste change some if things feel dated, TGI Fridays

2343
02:10:38.880 --> 02:10:42.600
<v Speaker 19>and Applebee's, which doesn't exist anymore, I don't think. But anyway,

2344
02:10:42.600 --> 02:10:44.000
<v Speaker 19>they've all kind of run the course and become the

2345
02:10:44.039 --> 02:10:46.319
<v Speaker 19>butt of jokes after ten years. It's very easy for

2346
02:10:46.359 --> 02:10:48.560
<v Speaker 19>consumers to change their minds and go somewhere else.

2347
02:10:48.760 --> 02:10:51.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and the quality can go down as well, frishes

2348
02:10:51.960 --> 02:10:54.279
<v Speaker 2>and we end up losing our frishes locally. All right,

2349
02:10:54.359 --> 02:10:56.600
<v Speaker 2>let's pause. We'll bring Brien James back for one more.

2350
02:10:56.680 --> 02:10:59.039
<v Speaker 2>Talk about four oh one k balances. Which direction are

2351

<v Speaker 2>they going around? You're right back.

2376
02:12:11.079 --> 02:12:13.319
<v Speaker 2>James moving over to four oh one K balance is

2377
02:12:13.359 --> 02:12:15.479
<v Speaker 2>something he knows all about since he's an ancial planner.

2378
02:12:15.520 --> 02:12:18.359
<v Speaker 2>That's what it is all about. Hopefully everybody's investments are

2379
02:12:18.359 --> 02:12:20.880
<v Speaker 2>going well. Which direction are we going in four oh

2380
02:12:20.920 --> 02:12:23.000
<v Speaker 2>one K balances because the market seems to have been

2381
02:12:23.000 --> 02:12:25.439
<v Speaker 2>doing pretty well late now, they've.

2382
02:12:25.279 --> 02:12:27.359
<v Speaker 19>Been going up and yeah, that's it shouldn't be too

2383
02:12:27.359 --> 02:12:29.720
<v Speaker 19>big of a shock the market is the market usually

2384
02:12:29.760 --> 02:12:32.359
<v Speaker 19>goes up and not down. And we've seen, you know,

2385
02:12:32.439 --> 02:12:34.239
<v Speaker 19>the market hit an all time high in December and

2386
02:12:34.239 --> 02:12:37.039
<v Speaker 19>it's touched that twice, once in January, once in February.

2387
02:12:37.479 --> 02:12:39.319
<v Speaker 19>So the average balance for a four toh one K

2388
02:12:39.439 --> 02:12:42.000
<v Speaker 19>retirement accounts about one hundred and thirty one thousand dollars.

2389
02:12:42.039 --> 02:12:45.239
<v Speaker 19>That's the second highest average we've had on Revered on record.

2390
02:12:45.520 --> 02:12:47.760
<v Speaker 19>So that's a good thing. But that does happen when

2391
02:12:47.800 --> 02:12:50.479
<v Speaker 19>the economy is going okay. There's a lot of scary

2392
02:12:50.479 --> 02:12:53.000
<v Speaker 19>headlines out there, but underneath that are a lot of

2393
02:12:53.039 --> 02:12:55.520
<v Speaker 19>people who are doing okay and making it through. And

2394
02:12:55.760 --> 02:12:59.720
<v Speaker 19>actually contributions are up too, so we've seen a we've

2395
02:12:59.720 --> 02:13:01.800
<v Speaker 19>seen large amount of people putting more and more for

2396
02:13:02.039 --> 02:13:06.039
<v Speaker 19>one K dollars in and that's represented in the fact

2397
02:13:06.079 --> 02:13:08.640
<v Speaker 19>that we're seeing these balances go up. So when the

2398
02:13:08.680 --> 02:13:10.960
<v Speaker 19>economy is doing okay, people will put more money in.

2399
02:13:11.000 --> 02:13:13.800
<v Speaker 19>When people start to slow down on their contributions, that

2400
02:13:13.800 --> 02:13:15.720
<v Speaker 19>can be an indicator as well, because they're needing to

2401
02:13:16.159 --> 02:13:17.319
<v Speaker 19>kind of pinch pennies a little bit.

2402
02:13:17.399 --> 02:13:19.479
<v Speaker 2>Well, and I don't know how you reckon saw more

2403
02:13:19.520 --> 02:13:21.600
<v Speaker 2>people putting away more money in a four one K

2404
02:13:21.760 --> 02:13:24.960
<v Speaker 2>plan when we talked about the other topics, which is

2405
02:13:25.399 --> 02:13:28.239
<v Speaker 2>inflation is soaking up a lot more dollars at least

2406
02:13:28.239 --> 02:13:29.640
<v Speaker 2>in terms of the grocery prices.

2407
02:13:31.319 --> 02:13:34.319
<v Speaker 19>Yeah, fair point, But that's what I was hinting at before.

2408
02:13:34.359 --> 02:13:36.000
<v Speaker 20>There are a lot of people out there who were

2409
02:13:36.000 --> 02:13:37.079
<v Speaker 20>doing just fine.

2410
02:13:37.239 --> 02:13:39.640
<v Speaker 19>We're in an economy, Brian, where we were in a

2411
02:13:39.640 --> 02:13:42.039
<v Speaker 19>country where we worry about the profit margin of our

2412
02:13:42.079 --> 02:13:44.800
<v Speaker 19>public traded companies. There are a lot of people who

2413
02:13:44.840 --> 02:13:46.840
<v Speaker 19>get hurt by that. There are a lot of people

2414
02:13:46.840 --> 02:13:48.359
<v Speaker 19>who make a lot of money off of it. I'm

2415
02:13:48.359 --> 02:13:50.319
<v Speaker 19>not here to weigh in on whether that's good or bad.

2416
02:13:50.600 --> 02:13:52.880
<v Speaker 19>But if you're somebody who's got the ability to put

2417
02:13:52.880 --> 02:13:55.760
<v Speaker 19>away more money than you spend every month, then you've

2418
02:13:55.800 --> 02:13:58.159
<v Speaker 19>been in a great environment really for the last several years,

2419
02:13:58.159 --> 02:13:59.840
<v Speaker 19>and I would say even prior to that, we had

2420
02:14:00.000 --> 02:14:02.199
<v Speaker 19>twenty twenty two, which was one of the five worst

2421
02:14:02.239 --> 02:14:04.359
<v Speaker 19>years we've ever had in the stock market. But there's

2422
02:14:04.399 --> 02:14:06.600
<v Speaker 19>been a lot of years where it's been a lot

2423
02:14:06.640 --> 02:14:09.319
<v Speaker 19>better than that, And so that's why we're seeing these balances,

2424
02:14:09.319 --> 02:14:12.560
<v Speaker 19>the highest average balances we've ever seen, meaning people are

2425
02:14:12.560 --> 02:14:14.359
<v Speaker 19>putting it in and.

2426
02:14:13.960 --> 02:14:16.079
<v Speaker 20>Allowing it to grow and not relying on it.

2427
02:14:16.239 --> 02:14:20.199
<v Speaker 19>The average contribution nowadays is about fourteen percent, which really

2428
02:14:20.199 --> 02:14:22.279
<v Speaker 19>that's an eye popping number, and I want to read

2429
02:14:22.279 --> 02:14:24.640
<v Speaker 19>a little more into that to see where that came from.

2430
02:14:24.640 --> 02:14:26.479
<v Speaker 20>But that's what's being highlighted here in the article.

2431
02:14:26.760 --> 02:14:29.399
<v Speaker 2>Well, as every good financial planner, I'll tell you should

2432
02:14:29.399 --> 02:14:31.199
<v Speaker 2>at least put something in it for no other reason

2433
02:14:31.239 --> 02:14:33.319
<v Speaker 2>then to make sure you get if you have one,

2434
02:14:33.720 --> 02:14:36.439
<v Speaker 2>the employer match. I mean, that's just sound financial planning

2435
02:14:36.479 --> 02:14:36.960
<v Speaker 2>right there.

2436
02:14:37.439 --> 02:14:39.760
<v Speaker 19>Yeah, absolutely, that's free money that's sitting there on the

2437
02:14:39.760 --> 02:14:41.159
<v Speaker 19>table waiting for you to take it.

2438
02:14:41.399 --> 02:14:41.479
<v Speaker 6>Now.

2439
02:14:41.560 --> 02:14:43.840
<v Speaker 19>Of course, you have to make sure that you can

2440
02:14:43.880 --> 02:14:46.199
<v Speaker 19>pay your bills. None of this matters if you can't

2441
02:14:46.239 --> 02:14:48.640
<v Speaker 19>pay your bills, If you're running up credit card bills

2442
02:14:49.680 --> 02:14:50.920
<v Speaker 19>for the sake of building up.

2443
02:14:50.840 --> 02:14:51.439
<v Speaker 20>Your four O one K.

2444
02:14:51.640 --> 02:14:53.159
<v Speaker 19>In the end, that's going to balance out and kind

2445
02:14:53.159 --> 02:14:55.560
<v Speaker 19>of work against you. So it all comes down to budgeting.

2446
02:14:55.600 --> 02:14:58.119
<v Speaker 19>And as I've been teaching my kids and their friends

2447
02:14:58.359 --> 02:15:00.520
<v Speaker 19>as it has come up, you have go to find

2448
02:15:00.520 --> 02:15:02.680
<v Speaker 19>your way to get yourself in a situation where you

2449
02:15:02.720 --> 02:15:06.119
<v Speaker 19>can spend less than you make. Do that for thirty

2450
02:15:06.119 --> 02:15:08.960
<v Speaker 19>five forty years and you'll be just fine, regardless of

2451
02:15:09.000 --> 02:15:09.760
<v Speaker 19>what the headlines are.

2452
02:15:09.800 --> 02:15:11.800
<v Speaker 20>And that's true for everybody as of right now as well.

2453
02:15:12.239 --> 02:15:14.000
<v Speaker 2>My wife and I've been trying to do that since

2454
02:15:14.039 --> 02:15:15.960
<v Speaker 2>when we first met. I think it's in my West

2455
02:15:16.039 --> 02:15:20.760
<v Speaker 2>Side genetics to spend less than we make. Just searching

2456
02:15:20.840 --> 02:15:23.279
<v Speaker 2>everywhere whenever you can save some money, even if it's

2457
02:15:23.279 --> 02:15:25.640
<v Speaker 2>just a small amount, All that adds up over the

2458
02:15:25.640 --> 02:15:28.479
<v Speaker 2>long haul. I mean, it really is. I remember just

2459
02:15:28.680 --> 02:15:31.359
<v Speaker 2>struggling with the reality when we were living in Chicago.

2460
02:15:31.760 --> 02:15:34.239
<v Speaker 2>You know, we had a budget for our house, and

2461
02:15:34.279 --> 02:15:36.119
<v Speaker 2>I've talked about the interest rates and you know, the

2462
02:15:36.119 --> 02:15:39.119
<v Speaker 2>balloon mortgage we had to get. But we bought a

2463
02:15:39.239 --> 02:15:42.800
<v Speaker 2>comparatively modest home compared to what my peers at the

2464
02:15:42.880 --> 02:15:45.239
<v Speaker 2>law firm were buying. And I was just sort of

2465
02:15:45.399 --> 02:15:48.439
<v Speaker 2>just in amazement at you know, they felt the need

2466
02:15:48.520 --> 02:15:52.479
<v Speaker 2>to buy this huge monstrosity of a home, and I

2467
02:15:52.600 --> 02:15:56.439
<v Speaker 2>just like, I'm thinking to myself, why all the resources

2468
02:15:56.439 --> 02:15:58.960
<v Speaker 2>you got are going into your home. You become house poor,

2469
02:15:59.119 --> 02:16:02.000
<v Speaker 2>and that to me is the ultimate, you know, a

2470
02:16:02.039 --> 02:16:05.920
<v Speaker 2>financial sin from my perspective. Anyway, Yeah, I've got.

2471
02:16:05.800 --> 02:16:07.720
<v Speaker 20>A similar story there too, related to housing.

2472
02:16:07.760 --> 02:16:10.479
<v Speaker 19>So we moved into a house in the early two thousands,

2473
02:16:10.520 --> 02:16:12.760
<v Speaker 19>and it would have been, you know, normally probably your

2474
02:16:12.800 --> 02:16:14.800
<v Speaker 19>second home, and you know, then you kind of graduated

2475
02:16:14.840 --> 02:16:16.600
<v Speaker 19>one little more space, want a bigger house or whatever.

2476
02:16:16.640 --> 02:16:18.920
<v Speaker 19>But we got lucky and landed in a neighborhood with

2477
02:16:18.920 --> 02:16:21.439
<v Speaker 19>a bunch of absolutely fun, wonderful people, and.

2478
02:16:21.399 --> 02:16:22.399
<v Speaker 20>None of us have ever left.

2479
02:16:22.640 --> 02:16:25.239
<v Speaker 19>So that occurred to me as I've done financial plans

2480
02:16:25.279 --> 02:16:27.640
<v Speaker 19>for my clients a lot of times, I'm seeing mortgages

2481
02:16:27.640 --> 02:16:30.119
<v Speaker 19>where they bought a house in their late forties early fifties,

2482
02:16:30.159 --> 02:16:33.200
<v Speaker 19>presumably for that reason, got bored one of different change

2483
02:16:33.200 --> 02:16:33.639
<v Speaker 19>of scenery.

2484
02:16:33.879 --> 02:16:34.680
<v Speaker 20>I didn't do that.

2485
02:16:34.879 --> 02:16:37.079
<v Speaker 19>And I'm realizing now that our house is almost paid

2486
02:16:37.120 --> 02:16:39.319
<v Speaker 19>off and I'm not going to have that mortgage hanging

2487
02:16:39.319 --> 02:16:41.959
<v Speaker 19>over my head. And that's the reason. It had nothing

2488
02:16:41.959 --> 02:16:44.120
<v Speaker 19>to do with a conscious decision. It just worked out,

2489
02:16:44.120 --> 02:16:45.680
<v Speaker 19>But it had to do with the fact that we

2490
02:16:45.760 --> 02:16:47.840
<v Speaker 19>simply didn't have the desire to move because of the

2491
02:16:47.879 --> 02:16:50.360
<v Speaker 19>people that were around us. That not everybody has that

2492
02:16:50.440 --> 02:16:54.079
<v Speaker 19>fortunate situation. But there is a very very mathematical impact

2493
02:16:54.159 --> 02:16:56.200
<v Speaker 19>to not having a mortgage for the rest of your retirement.

2494
02:16:56.639 --> 02:16:59.079
<v Speaker 2>Amen into that. Nacktol I pointed out earlier in my

2495
02:16:59.200 --> 02:17:02.239
<v Speaker 2>psychologically speaking, not having a mortgage was always just critical

2496
02:17:02.280 --> 02:17:05.799
<v Speaker 2>to me because I can't stand the concept of owing money.

2497
02:17:06.239 --> 02:17:08.600
<v Speaker 2>I just can't stand it. I mean, there have been

2498
02:17:08.600 --> 02:17:10.639
<v Speaker 2>periods in my time my life, well you had to

2499
02:17:10.680 --> 02:17:13.040
<v Speaker 2>have a credit card balance. It was just required, you know,

2500
02:17:13.120 --> 02:17:14.959
<v Speaker 2>you had necessities and you didn't have the money in

2501
02:17:15.000 --> 02:17:19.200
<v Speaker 2>the bank, and it just loomed over me like this monster.

2502
02:17:19.440 --> 02:17:23.239
<v Speaker 2>So I'm just uncomfortable with debt, knowing people money, and

2503
02:17:23.319 --> 02:17:26.040
<v Speaker 2>so that's that's kind of driven my financial planning throughout

2504
02:17:26.040 --> 02:17:26.959
<v Speaker 2>my entire life.

2505
02:17:27.479 --> 02:17:30.120
<v Speaker 19>Yeah, and that's when we do financial plans at all Worth,

2506
02:17:30.360 --> 02:17:33.799
<v Speaker 19>we'll build into the plan a quote unquote spending goal

2507
02:17:33.879 --> 02:17:37.159
<v Speaker 19>of getting that debt paid down. Mortgages aren't necessarily the

2508
02:17:37.159 --> 02:17:38.920
<v Speaker 19>scariest thing, it's not the worst, not the end of

2509
02:17:38.959 --> 02:17:40.680
<v Speaker 19>the world if you have one. But if you're about

2510
02:17:40.719 --> 02:17:42.959
<v Speaker 19>to retire with thirty thousand dollars in credit card debt,

2511
02:17:42.959 --> 02:17:44.319
<v Speaker 19>then we need to sit down and have a and

2512
02:17:44.360 --> 02:17:46.239
<v Speaker 19>have a little bit of a come to Jesus conversation,

2513
02:17:46.520 --> 02:17:47.959
<v Speaker 19>because that kind of thing is going to blow up

2514
02:17:47.959 --> 02:17:50.760
<v Speaker 19>in your face. But it's understanding the situation that you're in,

2515
02:17:50.879 --> 02:17:53.520
<v Speaker 19>figuring out the resources you have with which to address,

2516
02:17:53.719 --> 02:17:55.200
<v Speaker 19>and then implementing a plan.

2517
02:17:55.440 --> 02:17:57.520
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's the beauty of having a financial planner. It's

2518
02:17:57.520 --> 02:17:59.760
<v Speaker 2>like having a responsible adult telling you what to do

2519
02:18:00.120 --> 02:18:03.159
<v Speaker 2>not to do right. It's your You're the job is

2520
02:18:03.200 --> 02:18:07.239
<v Speaker 2>to be like a surrogate parent. That's absolutely true.

2521
02:18:07.479 --> 02:18:09.959
<v Speaker 19>As a financial I'm a human too. As a financial planner,

2522
02:18:10.000 --> 02:18:12.159
<v Speaker 19>I make the same mistakes. I just know exactly the

2523
02:18:12.200 --> 02:18:14.399
<v Speaker 19>impact of the bad choice I'm about to make sometimes.

2524
02:18:14.520 --> 02:18:17.680
<v Speaker 2>Brian James, appreciate your assistance every week with these issues

<v Speaker 2>Good Monday morning. Te you.

2542
02:19:00.200 --> 02:19:03.440
<v Speaker 16>It's always, like you said, great to talk about veterans

2543
02:19:03.440 --> 02:19:05.399
<v Speaker 16>and what we're doing here at the Cincinnati VIA to

2544
02:19:05.440 --> 02:19:07.719
<v Speaker 16>get get those folks who put.

2545
02:19:07.559 --> 02:19:09.639
<v Speaker 5>Their name on the dot line on all the hope

2546
02:19:09.639 --> 02:19:09.920
<v Speaker 5>they can.

2547
02:19:10.120 --> 02:19:12.399
<v Speaker 2>And as we ultimately conclude every time we talk, there's

2548
02:19:12.479 --> 02:19:18.520
<v Speaker 2>there's like no downside signing up for your VA benefits.

2549
02:19:18.559 --> 02:19:21.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you know, nobody's forcing you to use them,

2550
02:19:21.559 --> 02:19:24.239
<v Speaker 2>but they're right there waiting for you. So anyway, I

2551

<v Speaker 2>understand you get a lot of compliments of late you

2552
02:19:26.280 --> 02:19:28.040
<v Speaker 2>want to pass along some of those to the listeners.

2553
02:19:28.959 --> 02:19:31.360
<v Speaker 16>Yeah, I just wanted to mention a few Brian with

2555
02:19:33.840 --> 02:19:38.639
<v Speaker 16>dealing with as federal employees. It's been pretty uh pretty

2556
02:19:38.639 --> 02:19:42.639
<v Speaker 16>overwhelming emotionally positively to see how many veterans have stepped

2557
02:19:42.639 --> 02:19:46.040
<v Speaker 16>out and wanted to talk about their experiences with us.

2558

<v Speaker 16>And I know how you like to hear the positivity

02:20:09.600 --> 02:20:12.239
<v Speaker 16>there in Butler County, said he went in for treatment

2566
02:20:12.280 --> 02:20:16.239
<v Speaker 16>of depression and suicide ideation, and through the process of

2567
02:20:16.239 --> 02:20:19.840
<v Speaker 16>that and his coordination folks and the annual physicals, he

2568

2587

2588
02:21:16.360 --> 02:21:17.239
<v Speaker 5>He goes on to say.

2589
02:21:18.239 --> 02:21:21.879
<v Speaker 16>He goes, I began to ride a recumbent bike through

2590
02:21:21.920 --> 02:21:24.520
<v Speaker 16>the VA to help me treat my depression, my loss

2591
02:21:24.520 --> 02:21:29.760
<v Speaker 16>of socialization, prove my physical, physical ability and mental fitness,

2592
02:21:29.760 --> 02:21:30.840
<v Speaker 16>and prolong my life.

2593
02:21:31.280 --> 02:21:32.479
<v Speaker 2>I get online on a.

2594
02:21:32.440 --> 02:21:34.879
<v Speaker 16>TV that the system and different things that the VA

2595
02:21:34.959 --> 02:21:37.360
<v Speaker 16>provided me so I could not ride alone, but I

2596
02:21:37.399 --> 02:21:40.079
<v Speaker 16>just wanted to share these few things that the Cincinnati

2597
02:21:40.159 --> 02:21:43.159
<v Speaker 16>va what they've done for me, and they've improved my life, and.

2598
02:21:43.959 --> 02:21:46.360
<v Speaker 2>Going honest, really tell a story. Yes, I thought you'd

2599
02:21:46.399 --> 02:21:48.879
<v Speaker 2>appreciate that. I truly do. And I've been on my

2600
02:21:48.920 --> 02:21:52.840
<v Speaker 2>own personal quest to try to improve my health through

2601
02:21:52.879 --> 02:21:55.920
<v Speaker 2>my diet, and I and my listeners known as I

2602
02:21:55.920 --> 02:21:57.760
<v Speaker 2>probably stick of hearing you say, you know, did my

2603
02:21:57.799 --> 02:22:01.559
<v Speaker 2>best to really pretty much eradicate any added sugars in

2604
02:22:01.639 --> 02:22:04.319
<v Speaker 2>my diet. I don't drink sodas, I never really did anyhow,

2605
02:22:04.319 --> 02:22:06.559
<v Speaker 2>but you know, just looking out for where the added

2606
02:22:06.639 --> 02:22:08.399
<v Speaker 2>sugars are and trying to get rid of them, and

2607
02:22:08.479 --> 02:22:12.000
<v Speaker 2>that alone has improved my mood. I can't imagine that guy.

2608
02:22:12.239 --> 02:22:15.879
<v Speaker 2>He he's got hearing problems, he's overweight, he doesn't exercise,

2609
02:22:16.319 --> 02:22:20.200
<v Speaker 2>and just correcting those three things that would dramatically impact,

2610
02:22:20.239 --> 02:22:24.799
<v Speaker 2>you know, something like depression and perhaps suicidal ideation, I'd imagine.

2611
02:22:24.799 --> 02:22:27.079
<v Speaker 2>I'm not a psychiatrist a psychologist, and don't play one

2612
02:22:27.120 --> 02:22:30.280
<v Speaker 2>on radio, but I mean, given my personal experience with

2613
02:22:30.360 --> 02:22:34.239
<v Speaker 2>diet and its relationship to mood boy, that that that

2614
02:22:34.559 --> 02:22:35.760
<v Speaker 2>has to help tremendously.

2615
02:22:36.799 --> 02:22:37.040
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

2616
02:22:37.040 --> 02:22:39.159
<v Speaker 16>Absolutely, And the reason why I wanted to talk about

2617
02:22:39.200 --> 02:22:42.680
<v Speaker 16>that excerpt expert from that particular veteran. It's you know,

2618
02:22:42.719 --> 02:22:48.200
<v Speaker 16>he talked about eyeglasses, hearing aids, mental health, food, all

2619
02:22:48.239 --> 02:22:50.200
<v Speaker 16>the whole health stuff. So this is really a good

2620
02:22:50.239 --> 02:22:53.840
<v Speaker 16>description of what the VA does. Yeah, and you know

2621
02:22:53.920 --> 02:22:56.159
<v Speaker 16>we're we you know, I don't say this a lot,

2622
02:22:56.239 --> 02:22:58.479
<v Speaker 16>and I should more so is that you know, we're

2623
02:22:58.479 --> 02:23:00.920
<v Speaker 16>more than healthcare. We do offer a lot of the

2624
02:23:00.959 --> 02:23:04.840
<v Speaker 16>health and welfare type support systems with things. I just

2625
02:23:04.879 --> 02:23:06.719
<v Speaker 16>thought I diduld share that this morning because it's just

2626
02:23:06.760 --> 02:23:10.920
<v Speaker 16>an outstanding really a snapshot of all the different things.

2627
02:23:10.959 --> 02:23:12.639
<v Speaker 5>And he's getting all this under one roof.

2628
02:23:12.879 --> 02:23:17.520
<v Speaker 16>Yeah he's not driving multiple places and just just fantastic.

2629
02:23:17.600 --> 02:23:19.559
<v Speaker 16>I can't wait to personally meet him in person.

2630
02:23:19.760 --> 02:23:20.399
<v Speaker 2>Oh I have that.

2631
02:23:20.799 --> 02:23:21.079
<v Speaker 5>Now.

2632
02:23:21.440 --> 02:23:25.799
<v Speaker 2>Do you offer a mental telehealth for mental services?

2633
02:23:26.799 --> 02:23:27.280
<v Speaker 20>Absolutely?

2634
02:23:27.319 --> 02:23:29.639
<v Speaker 16>We do so that you know, veterans are given an option,

2635
02:23:29.840 --> 02:23:31.360
<v Speaker 16>you know, if they like to be seen in person

2636
02:23:31.440 --> 02:23:33.920
<v Speaker 16>or if they like to be seen through telehealth. And

2637
02:23:34.120 --> 02:23:35.760
<v Speaker 16>you know that's a big advantage for many of our

2638
02:23:35.840 --> 02:23:38.559
<v Speaker 16>veterans that are working, uh you don't you know, don't

2639
02:23:38.600 --> 02:23:41.360
<v Speaker 16>have the flexibility and the liberties to get away from work,

2640
02:23:41.440 --> 02:23:43.360
<v Speaker 16>so you know, they can schedule to be seen before

2641
02:23:43.440 --> 02:23:47.319
<v Speaker 16>work on a break lunchtime, you know, different times to

2642
02:23:47.639 --> 02:23:49.079
<v Speaker 16>do that so they can be coordinated.

2643
02:23:49.280 --> 02:23:52.319
<v Speaker 2>And it's is it easy to get an appointment? I

2644
02:23:52.360 --> 02:23:55.200
<v Speaker 2>know out in the world of non veterans, you know,

2645
02:23:55.239 --> 02:23:57.840
<v Speaker 2>finding a mental health provider is a struggle in and

2646
02:23:57.840 --> 02:24:01.440
<v Speaker 2>of itself. Sometimes yeah, yeah, so you know, once again,

2647
02:24:01.600 --> 02:24:05.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, we're regulated in mandate to get appointments within

2648
02:24:05.120 --> 02:24:08.639
<v Speaker 2>thirty days or thirty five days, and this is heavily,

2649
02:24:08.680 --> 02:24:13.760
<v Speaker 2>heavily scrutinized and followed as a performance measure.

2650
02:24:13.840 --> 02:24:16.120
<v Speaker 16>So like my boss who's the director of the hospital,

2651
02:24:16.959 --> 02:24:18.559
<v Speaker 16>you know, this is one of the things that she's

2652
02:24:18.600 --> 02:24:21.639
<v Speaker 16>evaluated on to make sure we're within this parameters, not

2653
02:24:21.760 --> 02:24:25.040
<v Speaker 16>only with mental health, with all of those services. And

2654
02:24:25.120 --> 02:24:28.360
<v Speaker 16>so sometimes when we can't meet that because of maybe

2655
02:24:28.639 --> 02:24:32.200
<v Speaker 16>a medical condition that the doctor considers, or maybe travel

2656
02:24:32.239 --> 02:24:35.479
<v Speaker 16>time or distance, this is where the community care aspect

2657
02:24:35.479 --> 02:24:37.959
<v Speaker 16>comes into place, where veterans get approved for community care

2658
02:24:38.000 --> 02:24:38.680
<v Speaker 16>away from us.

2659
02:24:39.079 --> 02:24:41.520
<v Speaker 2>Fantastic, Well, I guess I have to you know, going

2660
02:24:41.559 --> 02:24:44.239
<v Speaker 2>along with the availability of the care that you offer

2661
02:24:44.280 --> 02:24:48.040
<v Speaker 2>along those lines, you haven't suffered from cutbacks from the

2662
02:24:48.040 --> 02:24:52.319
<v Speaker 2>current administration, that you aren't struggling to meet the needs

2663
02:24:52.319 --> 02:24:54.280
<v Speaker 2>of the of the of the veterans in our community.

2664
02:24:55.319 --> 02:24:57.680
<v Speaker 16>No, Brian, we you know where there's been no cutbacks

2665
02:24:57.719 --> 02:25:00.000
<v Speaker 16>to us. We're going to work continuing our mission here

2666
02:25:00.079 --> 02:25:02.799
<v Speaker 16>to Cincinnati VA. As I think I might have mentioned

2667
02:25:02.879 --> 02:25:07.760
<v Speaker 16>on our last show together last year in twenty twenty four,

2668
02:25:07.760 --> 02:25:09.479
<v Speaker 16>we set an all time record for the number of

2669
02:25:09.520 --> 02:25:12.719
<v Speaker 16>veterans we served in that given year, and we continue

2670
02:25:12.760 --> 02:25:16.079
<v Speaker 16>to keep growing with veterans looking at the healthcare options,

2671
02:25:16.639 --> 02:25:20.079
<v Speaker 16>and we continue to maintain a ninety two percent or

2672
02:25:20.120 --> 02:25:23.479
<v Speaker 16>above trust score with our veterans when when they're asked

2673
02:25:23.479 --> 02:25:26.879
<v Speaker 16>and surveyed about the services and customer service and care

2674
02:25:26.920 --> 02:25:27.520
<v Speaker 16>that they receive.

2675
02:25:27.680 --> 02:25:29.920
<v Speaker 2>That speaks volumes right there, because I know we went

2676
02:25:29.959 --> 02:25:32.120
<v Speaker 2>through some troubled times of the VA going back a

2677
02:25:32.159 --> 02:25:34.280
<v Speaker 2>decade or so, and I think you said, I know

2678
02:25:34.360 --> 02:25:36.600
<v Speaker 2>locally anyway, you've got those problems ironed out, and I

2679
02:25:36.600 --> 02:25:40.159
<v Speaker 2>know things keep getting better every year. So we'll pause,

2680
02:25:40.559 --> 02:25:43.000
<v Speaker 2>we're being Todd Sledge and the CINCINNTIVA back and we'll

2681
02:25:43.000 --> 02:25:46.120
<v Speaker 2>talk about why those veterans out there who haven't signed

2682
02:25:46.200 --> 02:25:48.639
<v Speaker 2>up should, even especially those under the age of fifty,

2683
02:25:48.879 --> 02:25:50.799
<v Speaker 2>among other things, be right back.

2684
02:25:51.639 --> 02:25:52.879

2685
02:25:53.399 --> 02:25:54.399
<v Speaker 2>The cold weather is here.

2686

<v Speaker 3>So you and your heating system.

2687

2709
02:27:02.440 --> 02:27:05.959
<v Speaker 2>the CINCINNTI VA. Boy, Todd, I don't think you could

2710
02:27:05.959 --> 02:27:08.239
<v Speaker 2>have had a better commercial for the reason to get

2711
02:27:08.360 --> 02:27:10.520
<v Speaker 2>your VA benefits in the story you just told in

2712
02:27:10.559 --> 02:27:14.200
<v Speaker 2>the last segment. But it illustrates the profound benefit of

2713
02:27:14.239 --> 02:27:16.079
<v Speaker 2>signing up for the VA. But you want to make

2714
02:27:16.079 --> 02:27:18.000
<v Speaker 2>an appeal to those veterans under the age of fifty.

2715
02:27:18.159 --> 02:27:20.719
<v Speaker 2>So's explained why. That's why it's so important.

2716
02:27:21.719 --> 02:27:23.920
<v Speaker 16>Yeah, Brian, you know, thanks for that. Yeah, you know,

2717
02:27:24.000 --> 02:27:26.760
<v Speaker 16>for for myself doing this for so long. What I

2718
02:27:26.799 --> 02:27:29.719
<v Speaker 16>continue to just see with our veterans who were past

2719
02:27:29.799 --> 02:27:31.719
<v Speaker 16>the age of fifty, especially when they get in their

2720
02:27:31.760 --> 02:27:35.440
<v Speaker 16>sixties in early seventies, is they've they never took advantage

2721
02:27:35.479 --> 02:27:38.040
<v Speaker 16>of getting enrolled into the VA healthcare system. And so,

2722
02:27:38.680 --> 02:27:40.319
<v Speaker 16>you know, as life goes on, and you know, in

2723
02:27:40.399 --> 02:27:43.440
<v Speaker 16>these these temples of our bodies we think we take

2724
02:27:43.440 --> 02:27:44.639
<v Speaker 16>care of, they do break down.

2725
02:27:44.719 --> 02:27:48.399
<v Speaker 2>Like a good old car, Yes they do. Our warranties

2726
02:27:48.479 --> 02:27:51.000
<v Speaker 2>expired at some point some earlier day.

2727
02:27:51.200 --> 02:27:53.959
<v Speaker 16>Yeah, yeah, no matter how much he changed the oil

2728
02:27:54.040 --> 02:27:56.399
<v Speaker 16>or the tires. You know, things do they wear it down.

2729
02:27:56.440 --> 02:27:58.959
<v Speaker 16>And so you know what I've seen so many different times.

2730
02:27:59.040 --> 02:28:01.000
<v Speaker 16>Is you know, I'll get get a lot of calls

2731
02:28:01.040 --> 02:28:04.360
<v Speaker 16>like you do from friends, acquaintances, different connections, and they'll say,

2732
02:28:04.959 --> 02:28:08.120
<v Speaker 16>you know, hey, my dad or my grandfather, my uncle,

2733
02:28:08.280 --> 02:28:10.959
<v Speaker 16>you know, they're in a private facility or there are

2734
02:28:11.000 --> 02:28:13.559
<v Speaker 16>over a christ or a different hospital and not that

2735
02:28:13.600 --> 02:28:15.440
<v Speaker 16>they don't do good services, and they're like, you know,

2736
02:28:15.520 --> 02:28:17.399
<v Speaker 16>dad's a va. Why are we having to take care

2737
02:28:17.440 --> 02:28:20.959
<v Speaker 16>of this stuff? And so never enrolled. So you know

2738
02:28:21.040 --> 02:28:23.920
<v Speaker 16>the encouragement of just getting enrolled and making sure that

2739
02:28:23.959 --> 02:28:27.799
<v Speaker 16>you're in our system, finding out the type of different things,

2740
02:28:27.840 --> 02:28:31.239
<v Speaker 16>the portfolio of care that we can provide you that

2741
02:28:31.280 --> 02:28:33.600
<v Speaker 16>can go along with private health insurance or if you

2742
02:28:33.680 --> 02:28:37.280
<v Speaker 16>lose your health coverage because of a spouse retires, or

2743
02:28:37.280 --> 02:28:40.479
<v Speaker 16>different costs of stuff. You know, that portfolio I talk

2744
02:28:40.520 --> 02:28:44.600
<v Speaker 16>about as eyeglasses and hearing aids and mental health services,

2745
02:28:44.600 --> 02:28:46.799
<v Speaker 16>but it's just more than that too, the long term

2746
02:28:46.840 --> 02:28:50.399
<v Speaker 16>care benefits, you know, the the oncology stuff, the different

2747
02:28:50.440 --> 02:28:53.120
<v Speaker 16>things that we have where you know, as someone who

2748
02:28:53.200 --> 02:28:56.319
<v Speaker 16>served their country, they're not having their personal assets attacked

2749
02:28:56.760 --> 02:29:00.399
<v Speaker 16>through private health care costs that we all face as

2750
02:29:00.440 --> 02:29:02.760
<v Speaker 16>being a veteran because as you've said many times this

2751
02:29:02.879 --> 02:29:04.520
<v Speaker 16>is one of the things that you get when you

2752
02:29:04.559 --> 02:29:05.799
<v Speaker 16>signed up to serve the country.

2753
02:29:06.239 --> 02:29:08.920
<v Speaker 2>So you do offer long term care solutions?

2754
02:29:09.799 --> 02:29:10.440
<v Speaker 5>Yes, we do.

2755
02:29:10.520 --> 02:29:11.000
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely.

2756
02:29:11.000 --> 02:29:13.479
<v Speaker 16>We have a full service what we call our community

2757
02:29:13.600 --> 02:29:17.840
<v Speaker 16>Community Living Center here, which is a very robust nursing home,

2758
02:29:17.920 --> 02:29:20.600
<v Speaker 16>hospice care. We do this stuff in home. We have

2759
02:29:20.680 --> 02:29:24.239
<v Speaker 16>contracts in the out in the Tri State where veterans

2760
02:29:24.280 --> 02:29:27.000
<v Speaker 16>can go. So, oh, it's a gamut of it's a

2761
02:29:27.040 --> 02:29:30.159
<v Speaker 16>gamut of services that we have here. You know, there's

2762
02:29:30.239 --> 02:29:32.719
<v Speaker 16>nothing we do not do here, except for we don't

2763
02:29:32.719 --> 02:29:36.760
<v Speaker 16>do transplants, and we do not have a spinal cord

2764
02:29:36.799 --> 02:29:40.559
<v Speaker 16>injury program. However, we can send you to v any

2765
02:29:40.639 --> 02:29:42.520
<v Speaker 16>Va in our area to do that or in the

2766
02:29:42.520 --> 02:29:43.239
<v Speaker 16>private sector.

2767
02:29:43.799 --> 02:29:46.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh, that's an amazing benefit. As long as you and

2768
02:29:46.520 --> 02:29:48.719
<v Speaker 2>I have been talking, I never realized you offered long

2769
02:29:48.840 --> 02:29:52.719
<v Speaker 2>term care solution because I mean that that'll talk about

2770
02:29:52.760 --> 02:29:56.559
<v Speaker 2>eating up one's savings and later in life. That is

2771
02:29:56.879 --> 02:29:59.239
<v Speaker 2>I mean for whole families. You know, we got to

2772
02:29:59.280 --> 02:30:02.120
<v Speaker 2>take care of Dad, and it's costing us X thousands

2773
02:30:02.159 --> 02:30:04.520
<v Speaker 2>of dollars a month in this long term care facility,

2774
02:30:04.520 --> 02:30:07.840
<v Speaker 2>and we're struggling already. This I mean you're in a

2775
02:30:07.920 --> 02:30:08.719
<v Speaker 2>huge bind.

2776
02:30:09.799 --> 02:30:12.040
<v Speaker 16>Yeah, absolutely well, and that's you know, part of the

2777
02:30:12.079 --> 02:30:14.920
<v Speaker 16>different things not only enrolling in our system, but also

2778
02:30:15.559 --> 02:30:18.639
<v Speaker 16>talking to a local service officer at your county office

2779
02:30:18.639 --> 02:30:21.360
<v Speaker 16>in Hamilton County or Butler County or Claremont County or

2780
02:30:21.360 --> 02:30:24.799
<v Speaker 16>in house here about the different disability benefits related to

2781
02:30:24.840 --> 02:30:27.879
<v Speaker 16>your services that you're eligible for. Because here's the other factor,

2782
02:30:27.920 --> 02:30:31.280
<v Speaker 16>Brian is as veterans, if they get it, if they

2783
02:30:31.360 --> 02:30:34.440
<v Speaker 16>are able to get a minimum of seventy percent service connected,

2784
02:30:34.840 --> 02:30:36.879
<v Speaker 16>that's not just for one condition. It could be a

2785
02:30:36.920 --> 02:30:41.360
<v Speaker 16>combination of different percentages that add to seventy, then their

2786
02:30:41.399 --> 02:30:44.440
<v Speaker 16>long term care is free. So there's all kinds of

2787
02:30:44.440 --> 02:30:47.319
<v Speaker 16>these different advantages of different things, and which is why

2788
02:30:48.000 --> 02:30:51.000
<v Speaker 16>I encourage every veteran to come and talk to a

2789
02:30:51.319 --> 02:30:55.120
<v Speaker 16>expert about all the benefits that are able well in

2790
02:30:55.360 --> 02:30:56.680
<v Speaker 16>terms of long term care facility.

2791
02:30:57.159 --> 02:31:00.000
<v Speaker 2>I know from so many conversations with veterans and veterans

2792
02:31:00.079 --> 02:31:03.120
<v Speaker 2>group veterans like hanging out with fellow veterans. There's a

2793
02:31:03.159 --> 02:31:06.319
<v Speaker 2>relationship element there that's already built in. So if you

2794
02:31:06.360 --> 02:31:09.040
<v Speaker 2>were going to a retirement facility where you don't know

2795
02:31:09.120 --> 02:31:13.600
<v Speaker 2>anybody but versus a veterans facility where at least you

2796
02:31:13.639 --> 02:31:16.719
<v Speaker 2>have a tie that binds. I imagine that's got to

2797
02:31:16.760 --> 02:31:21.319
<v Speaker 2>be very I mean at least psychologically benefit of beneficial. Yeah.

2798
02:31:21.360 --> 02:31:24.239
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely, it doesn't matter the age too, you know.

2799
02:31:24.239 --> 02:31:26.239
<v Speaker 16>I chuckle of times when I get a chance to

2800
02:31:26.280 --> 02:31:29.079
<v Speaker 16>go over to our community living center and I you know,

2801
02:31:29.200 --> 02:31:31.959
<v Speaker 16>here about about two months ago, we had a veteran

2802
02:31:31.959 --> 02:31:34.120
<v Speaker 16>who was here who's turned one hundred years old, and

2803
02:31:34.159 --> 02:31:37.120
<v Speaker 16>we had a beautiful birthday for him. And even at

2804
02:31:37.120 --> 02:31:39.120
<v Speaker 16>one hundred, he was still rasm guy that was in

2805
02:31:39.159 --> 02:31:43.559
<v Speaker 16>the army because he was a marine, you know, because

2806
02:31:43.760 --> 02:31:46.159
<v Speaker 16>because I think the gentleman that was younger said asking

2807
02:31:46.319 --> 02:31:48.040
<v Speaker 16>for a piece of cake, and he is nat, I

2808
02:31:48.040 --> 02:31:49.520
<v Speaker 16>don't feed army.

2809
02:31:51.120 --> 02:31:55.799
<v Speaker 2>That's great, bust that even late in life, it never stops.

2810
02:31:55.799 --> 02:31:59.200
<v Speaker 2>That's great. Well, remind my listeners about where the sites
