Pretty obviously, the 6 00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:18.359 American way is at stake here, right The good news 7 00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:21.760 is Trump is president. Better news the American people are 8 00:00:21.839 --> 00:00:24.679 behind Donald Trump on this. And we're in one of 9 00:00:24.679 --> 00:00:28.559 those watershed moments right now where things are going to 10 00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:32.079 break America's way and against the left and against this 11 00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:36.359 craziness and against this insurrection, against all the insurrectionists. And 12 00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:39.799 I'm not talking about legally prosecutable though that's an interesting question. 13 00:00:39.880 --> 00:00:43.479 But obviously Mike Johnston has been talking all this crazy 14 00:00:43.799 --> 00:00:46.759 insurrection talk here in Denver. It's what the left is 15 00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:50.560 doing across the country. Double middle finger to the federal government. 16 00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:53.000 If we don't like a federal law, we're not going 17 00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:56.600 to enforce it, particularly immigration. So now in Colorado, Colorado 18 00:00:56.640 --> 00:00:59.799 elections across the country, the choice between a Democrat and 19 00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:03.840 publican is the choice between insurrection or obeying the law, 20 00:01:03.880 --> 00:01:08.239 a choice between enforcing immigration law or not enforcing immigration law. 21 00:01:08.239 --> 00:01:10.680 It's that's simple. Three all three se one three A 22 00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:14.879 two five five the number if you want to savor this, 23 00:01:15.079 --> 00:01:17.200 which is aged pretty badly for the mayor. 24 00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:21.719 Denver Mayor Mike Johnson is walking back his comments suggesting 25 00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:26.200 Denver police would somehow try to stop a mass deportation. 26 00:01:25.840 --> 00:01:26.920 By federal forces. 27 00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:30.519 Yet the mayor says he expects the people of Denver 28 00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:34.480 would resist, and he says he would too, even if 29 00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:35.519 it means going to jail. 30 00:01:36.000 --> 00:01:39.319 Yeah. See that that is what they truly believe. That's 31 00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:41.519 what they intend, and that's what they've been doing. You 32 00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:44.120 look at all the different ways that they have been 33 00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:46.680 taking the power the people give them in order to 34 00:01:46.760 --> 00:01:51.640 block federal enforcement of immigration law. And America has flipped 35 00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:55.000 on that. America has changed dramatically, and the Dems they 36 00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:57.359 got a big problem. Jay and Parker, you're on the 37 00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:00.439 Dan Kapla show. Welcome you, Dan. 38 00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:03.480 I donated one thousand dollars to the Trump campaign and 39 00:02:03.519 --> 00:02:06.599 now I really regret it. All this stuff should be 40 00:02:06.599 --> 00:02:11.120 handled at the border. You were going as you're going 41 00:02:11.199 --> 00:02:13.879 to see the price of labor in this country go 42 00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:16.039 through the roof, which is going to lead to inflation, 43 00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:21.759 higher interest rates, and a major recession. They should all 44 00:02:21.800 --> 00:02:25.599 be handled at the border. We don't need police squads 45 00:02:25.639 --> 00:02:29.639 going around taking people from washing dishes at Applebee's or 46 00:02:29.680 --> 00:02:33.639 somewhere and kicking them out of the country. We have 47 00:02:33.759 --> 00:02:38.599 given these people EI in numbers, employment identification numbers. We've 48 00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:42.080 given them driver's licenses. These people have set up businesses, 49 00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:46.240 have families. We gave them the facto permission to be 50 00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:47.039 in this country. 51 00:02:48.199 --> 00:02:51.719 Well, first of all, yeah, I just love listening to 52 00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:53.280 you talk. But where's the axcent. 53 00:02:52.919 --> 00:02:56.080 From the accents from Brooklyn. 54 00:02:56.080 --> 00:02:57.439 I've been out here no long time. 55 00:02:57.479 --> 00:03:00.360 Don't love it, love it. But in in terms of 56 00:03:00.439 --> 00:03:04.439 handling it at the border, well, Trump's doing that right, 57 00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:07.000 and nobody's ever done a better job than he's done 58 00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:09.879 central election day. So we agree on that. And so 59 00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:12.520 you're you're talking about all the people already here, because 60 00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:17.719 you're right, both both parties, to various extents, Democrats far 61 00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:22.080 worse than Republicans, have facilitated people coming into this country 62 00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:25.800 and getting set up and working, you know, illegally, You're 63 00:03:26.120 --> 00:03:29.759 right about all that. Now, it seems your major concern 64 00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:33.120 is whether the Trump administration is going to go in 65 00:03:33.719 --> 00:03:36.439 and now seek out and deport the kind of folks 66 00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:39.000 you described who have set up here, they're working here, 67 00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:43.400 they're otherwise law abiding. That seems to be your main concern, right, 68 00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:46.280 and yes. 69 00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:50.919 Yeah, and the disruption to the labor supply, Yeah, and 70 00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:52.639 relatively cheap labor. 71 00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:54.520 Now, now let me ask you on that point, Jay, 72 00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:59.159 are you referring to taking folks who've been here, working 73 00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:02.400 and otherwise baying the law? Is that the disruption of 74 00:04:02.439 --> 00:04:05.199 the labor supply or are you also lumping in with 75 00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:09.439 that closing the border down, which Trump has done very successfully? 76 00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:13.039 Do you think he should leave it over the book? 77 00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:13.800 No? 78 00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:19.160 Absolutely not. The border should be impenetrable, including the overseas 79 00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:24.040 embassy's consults where forty percent of illegals come from through 80 00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:29.079 the airports. Yeah, on corrupt visa programs. But anyway, and 81 00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:31.399 that guy in the Egyptian guy from the Springs who 82 00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:33.920 want us to bould of knowing, asked how he got 83 00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:36.720 that tormas lee right, what kind of documents were presented? 84 00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:37.079 Right? 85 00:04:37.439 --> 00:04:39.720 I know this corruption, that's the Cairo embassy. 86 00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:41.879 And what did Colorado do when he tried to get 87 00:04:41.920 --> 00:04:44.600 that weapon? But Jay, okay, so it seems like your 88 00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:47.839 big concern that including the labor pool. Is is if 89 00:04:47.879 --> 00:04:52.959 President Trump now extends the deportations to folks otherwise living 90 00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:55.360 here in a law abiding way, just trying to work, right, 91 00:04:55.399 --> 00:04:56.319 that's your big concern. 92 00:04:57.319 --> 00:05:00.279 And Reagan gave them amnesty. That's what President Reagan, right, 93 00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:03.360 So there's some reason Megan never built the walls. 94 00:05:03.959 --> 00:05:06.720 Yeah, and there couldn't be any There couldn't be any 95 00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:09.399 action against those folks. First of all, Jay, we'll watch 96 00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:12.439 it unfold together. I don't think President Trump intends at 97 00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:16.439 all to extend deportation to folks who've been here a 98 00:05:16.439 --> 00:05:20.639 long time, not committing any other crimes working. I think 99 00:05:20.680 --> 00:05:22.920 he'll set up some kind of framework. It won't be 100 00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:25.879 easy where they can get some kind of legal status. 101 00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:28.160 I think it'll be short of citizenship, but some kind 102 00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:30.759 of legal status. So we'll watch it together. But the 103 00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:32.639 other thing, my friend, is you need to have your 104 00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:35.000 own radio show. You would listen to that show, wouldn't you? 105 00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:40.319 Ryan the Jay Show? What would your name? Jay's show? Hey, 106 00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:43.120 I think people would listen to it just for the accent. 107 00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:43.560 I love it. 108 00:05:43.560 --> 00:05:46.759 But he also talks well yeah, I mean I listen. 109 00:05:47.240 --> 00:05:48.240 I get his point. 110 00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:51.560 But we can't just give de facto anaesty the way 111 00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:53.680 that Jay's talking, which Ronald Reagan that was probably the 112 00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:55.360 biggest mistake of his presidency. 113 00:05:55.560 --> 00:05:57.879 Yeah, No, and that's not going to happen under a 114 00:05:58.040 --> 00:06:03.000 Trump or Vance or Rubio or whomever, Scott Jennings presidency. 115 00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:04.959 That's not going to happen. I think what we are 116 00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:07.480 going to see. What we are going to see is 117 00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:10.079 we're going to see a lot of great things happen. 118 00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:13.560 We're going to see Trump standing up for federal immigration 119 00:06:13.639 --> 00:06:16.560 law and the supremacy of that and enforcing it in 120 00:06:16.720 --> 00:06:19.920 LA and across the country. And in some cases it'll 121 00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:22.399 be very visible like that. In other cases like Colorado, 122 00:06:22.439 --> 00:06:24.879 it'll be through the courts, it'll be through funding, etc. 123 00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:28.199 We're going to see that. And then I think we're 124 00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:31.560 going to see this sustained effort to identify and root 125 00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:34.639 out and deport people who have come here illegally and 126 00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:37.879 then committed other crimes. And that needs to never end. 127 00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:41.040 That needs to be a sustained twenty four to seven 128 00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:44.600 effort for the rest of America's existence. This nation cannot 129 00:06:44.639 --> 00:06:50.480 morally justify one human being harmed by one person here 130 00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:53.399 illegally who we know has already committed other crimes. So 131 00:06:53.439 --> 00:06:55.319 you're going to see that. You're going to see a 132 00:06:55.319 --> 00:06:57.480 lot of other things. I do not think we're going 133 00:06:57.519 --> 00:07:01.920 to see President Trump or Vance or or anybody else 134 00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:05.920 extended to the point where they're now deporting folks who've 135 00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:09.399 been here a while illegally, have not been violating any 136 00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:11.079 other loss. I think they're going to set up a 137 00:07:11.160 --> 00:07:14.839 legal process that does not allow them to become citizens, 138 00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:18.959 but allows them to stay as long as they're good citizens. 139 00:07:18.959 --> 00:07:21.279 Well I shouldn't say citizen, it won't be a citizenship, 140 00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:23.600 but as long as they don't violate other laws, et cetera. 141 00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:27.480 So love your reaction to that. I'm not expecting many 142 00:07:27.480 --> 00:07:30.439 folks to like that. I just think that's that last 143 00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:32.319 part is the reality of where it's headed. But in 144 00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:35.680 the meantime, you know these things Trump is doing now 145 00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:38.279 to show strength, and we're going to enforce federal law. 146 00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:41.480 I think America is cheering. We're going back to Dean 147 00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:46.079 and Arvada. Thank you, Dean, floor remains yours. Oh okay, Dan, 148 00:07:48.079 --> 00:07:49.360 I thought I was like, well, I guess I got 149 00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:51.680 caught up. No, no, no, I'm sorry, I just forgot 150 00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:52.879 that got caught up in. 151 00:07:52.800 --> 00:07:56.439 The moment, Oh you're good, Yeah, no, no worries. 152 00:07:56.800 --> 00:07:59.759 I was like, why are they a Los Angeles police 153 00:07:59.839 --> 00:08:01.879 not allowed to defend themselves against. 154 00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:05.879 Oh yeah yeahs like you've got your hands, fight behind 155 00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:06.279 your back. 156 00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:09.319 And what it does is it encourages more riot. 157 00:08:10.120 --> 00:08:10.639 I'm not gonna do. 158 00:08:10.639 --> 00:08:13.920 Any more cars. Yes, Dean, you're one hundred percent correct. 159 00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:16.639 I mean, in fact, the break we were in after 160 00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:19.439 you started your call, I was watching video in LA 161 00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:22.680 of people dropping these bricks on top of police cars, 162 00:08:23.079 --> 00:08:25.560 jumping up on police cars and smashing them. And I 163 00:08:25.639 --> 00:08:28.720 was thinking, in Chicago, in Chicago where I grew up, 164 00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:32.159 anybody tried anything like that. And I'm not suggesting any 165 00:08:32.240 --> 00:08:36.159 kind of excessive force. I'm talking about appropriate force. In fact, 166 00:08:36.200 --> 00:08:38.840 let me play this hit from Trump when when they 167 00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:41.919 when they spit, we hit, says the president. 168 00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:45.240 Er protests run. 169 00:08:45.039 --> 00:08:47.759 Into other cities of Chicago, New York for example. 170 00:08:47.879 --> 00:08:52.759 You be watching the Enjoyed lastly the when they spit 171 00:08:53.000 --> 00:08:55.440 that people, you know they spit. 172 00:08:55.600 --> 00:08:58.399 That's a new thing, that that work. You know what 173 00:08:58.440 --> 00:08:59.240 they throw at them? 174 00:08:59.320 --> 00:09:02.200 Right, and when that happens, I have already taked. 175 00:09:02.360 --> 00:09:03.960 They say they. 176 00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:09.039 We hit. Yeah, see that that now it's not quite 177 00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:10.960 Dick Daily back in Chicago when he said they were 178 00:09:10.960 --> 00:09:14.600 going to shoot to kill looters, but but they spit, 179 00:09:14.799 --> 00:09:17.399 we hit. Our police officers should not have to be 180 00:09:17.480 --> 00:09:21.120 subjected to people spitting on them, for example. And Dean, 181 00:09:21.159 --> 00:09:24.399 you had mentioned my dad Chicago police thirty years great man, 182 00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:27.360 great cop, but he was positioned outside the Comera at 183 00:09:27.399 --> 00:09:31.399 Hilton during the sixty eight riots Democratic Convention riots. He 184 00:09:31.559 --> 00:09:35.519 was in a dangerous spot following the riots, after the 185 00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:38.960 murder of doctor King, and the stuff they're subjected to 186 00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:42.720 out there.

You kept your composure. You 252 00:13:11.559 --> 00:13:13.159 didn't stumble over your words. 253 00:13:13.519 --> 00:13:18.320 And she said yes, but I have to imagine. 254 00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:20.279 She did, and she called it bizarre. 255 00:13:21.159 --> 00:13:22.399 I was understatement. 256 00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:25.600 But I mean, I've heard you recount the story so 257 00:13:25.639 --> 00:13:28.200 many times. But what I'm I'm trying to put myself 258 00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:30.840 in your shoes at that moment, the pressure that you 259 00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:32.519 had to be in a fog, Right, it was like 260 00:13:32.559 --> 00:13:33.759 a blur to you in that moment. 261 00:13:33.799 --> 00:13:35.399 Or was there like a moment of clarity? 262 00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:37.639 Yeah, it was the opposite. Well, it was just one 263 00:13:37.639 --> 00:13:40.600 of those moments of like total clarity because as I'd 264 00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:43.919 been coming in this station, there were only was there 265 00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:45.799 one person who knew it was going to happen or two. 266 00:13:47.960 --> 00:13:51.240 I'd asked Roger Ogden, who was the president of the 267 00:13:51.279 --> 00:13:54.320 station group, really big time guy, big time with NBC. 268 00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:57.600 I asked him for permission to do it, and he 269 00:13:57.639 --> 00:14:02.240 had agreed, and then I think I had asked Bill 270 00:14:02.320 --> 00:14:04.360 Stewart because it was his you know, he and Amy 271 00:14:04.399 --> 00:14:08.240 co anchored that show. But anyway, as I'm walking into 272 00:14:08.279 --> 00:14:13.759 the studio Channel four, Roger comes running down the hallway saying, no, 273 00:14:14.200 --> 00:14:17.519 don't do it. I've changed my mind. I mean literally 274 00:14:17.759 --> 00:14:20.919 as I'm opening the door to the studio, and I 275 00:14:21.080 --> 00:14:24.759 just turned and looked at him and said, too late, Yeah. 276 00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:26.759 Too late. You were already pot committed to that. 277 00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:30.519 Yeah, yeah, totally committed. And thank god she said yes, 278 00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:32.440 because I'm telling you, man, there would have been nowhere 279 00:14:32.440 --> 00:14:35.720 to hide had she said no, nowhere to hide, because 280 00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:39.000 it was it was truly worldwide. It was worldwide, and 281 00:14:40.679 --> 00:14:43.600 the stuff people sent us from every corner of the 282 00:14:43.600 --> 00:14:46.480 globe because back then, you know, I don't know if 283 00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:49.519 there was even internet that not really Yeah, so no, 284 00:14:49.720 --> 00:14:53.279 back then, it yeah, it really stood out. So it 285 00:14:53.399 --> 00:14:55.480 was so cool all the stuff, and Amy saved a 286 00:14:55.519 --> 00:14:57.240 bunch of it that we got from all over the world. 287 00:14:57.279 --> 00:15:01.960 But if she had said no, I mean, what like 288 00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:06.240 plastic surgery, name change, I don't know. I don't think 289 00:15:06.240 --> 00:15:07.360 there's anywhere I could have gone. 290 00:15:07.440 --> 00:15:11.440 No, no oj no. L Cowling's Ford Brown for you, 291 00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:12.000 my friend. 292 00:15:12.600 --> 00:15:14.519 Everywhere you would have gone anywhere in the world, it 293 00:15:14.519 --> 00:15:16.679 would have been point laugh. 294 00:15:16.960 --> 00:15:19.559 I'm wondering how many in our audience, there are a 295 00:15:19.559 --> 00:15:22.399 lot of loyal, longtime listeners of yours just happened to 296 00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:24.279 be watching that night because there would have been no warning. 297 00:15:24.320 --> 00:15:28.440 It's not promoted, I said, Matt spot God rest his soul. 298 00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:31.480 I mean, I'm going to watch the news, and that happened. 299 00:15:31.559 --> 00:15:34.080 People saw it. Iber how many people remember that. 300 00:15:34.720 --> 00:15:37.559 It's it used to be at least every week somebody 301 00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:40.399 would say it. Now somebody said it last week, like, 302 00:15:40.440 --> 00:15:42.360 hey man, I was watching when that happened. You know, 303 00:15:42.399 --> 00:15:45.600 somebody said it over the weekend. Because I think it 304 00:15:45.679 --> 00:15:48.879 stood out not typical, not expected. I mean, like I 305 00:15:48.960 --> 00:15:51.720 told you, I think we had never talked about marriage. 306 00:15:51.759 --> 00:15:58.200 The word had never been spoken, never, and so yeah, 307 00:15:58.360 --> 00:16:00.960 I just truly think God, she said yeah, but for 308 00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:03.120 a lot of reasons, thirty one years worth of reasons 309 00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:07.799 as yep, yeah, before Local. Well, I'm trying to remember 310 00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:11.159 if we were NBC then, I'm trying to remember. It's 311 00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:14.039 hard to keep those years straight. We might have been 312 00:16:14.159 --> 00:16:19.559 NBC at that time. But but yeah, no, And I 313 00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:22.320 remember she gave me this look. It didn't show up 314 00:16:22.320 --> 00:16:24.519 on camera, but right in the middle of it, she 315 00:16:24.559 --> 00:16:27.720 gave me this look like have you lost your mind? 316 00:16:28.600 --> 00:16:34.600 But she because again we had not talked marriage, not 317 00:16:34.639 --> 00:16:35.279 talk marriage. 318 00:16:35.519 --> 00:16:37.960 But I would have assumed it would at least come 319 00:16:38.039 --> 00:16:39.840 up a little like, Hey, could you imagine us, you know, 320 00:16:40.039 --> 00:16:40.399 doing that? 321 00:16:41.279 --> 00:16:44.360 No, I mean the way I can tell you the 322 00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:46.440 word had never been spoken. 323 00:16:47.279 --> 00:16:47.639 You know that. 324 00:16:47.879 --> 00:16:49.720 The only thing that would have been close to that 325 00:16:49.960 --> 00:16:52.679 was one conversation because I lived in Boulder at the 326 00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:57.639 time and just loved it, and one conversation once about 327 00:16:58.200 --> 00:17:00.000 could you ever see yourself living in bald. 328 00:17:01.639 --> 00:17:01.879 Wow? 329 00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:06.160 But U But no, we had never talked marriage, so 330 00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:09.279 it was meant to be right if she could handle 331 00:17:09.319 --> 00:17:12.279 that moment so well, because she did. I mean, think 332 00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:15.559 about processing that. Zero reason to think there's a marriage 333 00:17:15.559 --> 00:17:19.519 proposal coming at all, let alone during the five o'clock news, 334 00:17:20.440 --> 00:17:23.799 And she was so calm, she processed it all. She 335 00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:25.720 handled it great way. 336 00:17:25.720 --> 00:17:26.279 You just said that. 337 00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:28.319 I'm so glad you didn't handle that like ron Berg 338 00:17:28.359 --> 00:17:32.039 and go Amy. I have some breaking news that I'd 339 00:17:32.119 --> 00:17:32.920 like to share with you. 340 00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:39.480 Yeah, yeah, no, uh, maybe when we knew our vows, 341 00:17:39.519 --> 00:17:42.599 maybe we'll have to maybe we'll have to go back 342 00:17:42.599 --> 00:17:46.720 on Channel four. Were yeah, but thank you. I can't 343 00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:50.119 believe you found that. I've never heard it, never heard it. 344 00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:55.640 That is good work. Wow. Wow, hard to believe because 345 00:17:55.680 --> 00:17:59.160 that proposal was about a year before we got married, 346 00:18:01.200 --> 00:18:04.279 coming up on thirty one years. And truly, I know 347 00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:08.359 it's a cliche, but the time has literally flown. I 348 00:18:08.559 --> 00:18:11.240 just can't believe it's been so long. But I'll tell 349 00:18:11.279 --> 00:18:13.400 you this right now, bring in the polygraph, the stack 350 00:18:13.440 --> 00:18:16.799 of bibles. We tend to do those two together. She's 351 00:18:16.839 --> 00:18:20.559 even more beautiful now, even sexier. And I probably should 352 00:18:20.599 --> 00:18:27.519 have said that. You're on the Dan Caplish. 353 00:18:27.559 --> 00:18:30.000 You're listening to the Dan Kaplish Show podcast. 354 00:18:30.759 --> 00:18:34.799 My brain still scrambled after Ryan found that video my 355 00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:38.119 proposal to my wife.

Thank you, Dan. 358 00:18:49.000 --> 00:18:53.079 Correction on my previous text, Amy Ai m ee, that's right, 359 00:18:53.119 --> 00:18:55.359 that's your spelling. My apologies. By the way, where is 360 00:18:55.400 --> 00:18:57.799 Bill Stewart? Now? That from Andy? If you're new to 361 00:18:57.839 --> 00:19:02.400 the area. Bill Stuart, tremendous news anchor, great human now 362 00:19:03.400 --> 00:19:05.440 down I'm not sure he'd want me to give his 363 00:19:05.599 --> 00:19:09.720 actual location, but he's living the life down south and 364 00:19:10.279 --> 00:19:12.680 living a great life. He was always he and Larry 365 00:19:12.720 --> 00:19:17.160 big fisherman, and Bill is catching a lot of fish. Dan, 366 00:19:17.200 --> 00:19:19.240 I remember it, well, your new identity would have been 367 00:19:19.359 --> 00:19:23.279 stan Hapless that from Alexa. She says it was still 368 00:19:23.400 --> 00:19:26.480 NBC in nineteen ninety three, changed to CBS in ninety five. 369 00:19:26.559 --> 00:19:30.200 Thank you for that, Alexa, you recall that correctly. Yeah, 370 00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:33.839 that's wild. Yeah, And I don't think my new identity 371 00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:35.960 would have been that kind to me. I think my 372 00:19:36.039 --> 00:19:41.400 new identity would have been total banishment from any civilized society. 373 00:19:42.119 --> 00:19:47.599 Twenty four to seven, ridicule, Dan, I still recall it wonderful, 374 00:19:47.640 --> 00:19:50.799 many exclamation points that from Donna. Thank you, Donna, And 375 00:19:50.880 --> 00:19:53.559 it was it was wonderful and it was positive and 376 00:19:53.640 --> 00:19:57.559 it was it was just something completely positive. And thank 377 00:19:57.599 --> 00:20:02.640 you for that. And probably helps that we've stayed together 378 00:20:02.839 --> 00:20:05.599 thirty thirty one years. Right. Yeah, Well, that's the other thing. 379 00:20:05.599 --> 00:20:07.279 I don't want to be that guy who proposes on 380 00:20:07.359 --> 00:20:11.440 air and then you know, six months later there's something 381 00:20:11.480 --> 00:20:12.680 in the gospel saying. 382 00:20:12.599 --> 00:20:15.440 Like one, yeah, she had to say yes, obviously given 383 00:20:15.759 --> 00:20:18.200 but the fact that all these years later it has 384 00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:22.839 sustained that spiking Oh yeah, right there, bro, Bro, she. 385 00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:24.799 Did not have to say yes. It's kind of you 386 00:20:24.960 --> 00:20:27.519 to say that, but but I mean, for your sake, 387 00:20:27.920 --> 00:20:31.039 for my sake. But listen, I truly believe I'll ask 388 00:20:31.079 --> 00:20:33.680 her when I get home. But I truly believe that, 389 00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:36.359 even though she's such a good hearted person, it was 390 00:20:36.440 --> 00:20:40.680 not an act of mercy. This wasn't kind of a mercy. Yes, 391 00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:44.599 I really believe, having been there, that she did want 392 00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:47.160 to get married. We had just never discussed marriage. 393 00:20:47.200 --> 00:20:48.920 Was there a way I'm just kind of thinking out 394 00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:52.319 loud here, for she wasn't ready in that moment, but she. 395 00:20:52.319 --> 00:20:54.119 Didn't want to say no, no, no, no. 396 00:20:54.160 --> 00:20:56.319 That she could have punted and said we'll talk about 397 00:20:56.359 --> 00:20:56.920 this later. 398 00:20:56.960 --> 00:21:02.119 There had been one second's hesitation, like a pause for 399 00:21:02.200 --> 00:21:05.720 dramatic effect. I'm done, I'm toast. First of all, I 400 00:21:05.880 --> 00:21:09.319 probably would have just my heart would have stopped beating, right, 401 00:21:09.440 --> 00:21:11.559
