Speaker 1: Regular time. Okay, you're sponsored by wall streamsdow dot com
Speaker 1: and listeners liking, yeah, and now avacivated.
Speaker 2: All right, So, despite my best efforts to get on
Speaker 2: air live on time, guess what, we're still ten minutes late.
Speaker 2: And it is April tenth, twenty twenty six, allegedly according
Speaker 2: to that thing we call a calendar. So anyway, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna try and dispense with my usual long talking for
Speaker 2: sure here at the beginning. Uh, just to give you
Speaker 2: guys a couple of quick notes which I probably will
Speaker 2: forget to mention later.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 2: First of all, this is gonna be a tough weekend
Speaker 2: where I am trying to gather up funds and I
Speaker 2: want to do a thank you show, you know, tomorrow.
Speaker 2: The reason why I'm gathering up funds is that April
Speaker 2: is my difficult month. So yeah, it was my birthday
Speaker 2: three days ago, and you know, I got to thank
Speaker 2: my daughter, you know, got me a present, and you know,
Speaker 2: I had another friend put a little something toward you know,
Speaker 2: a little something for me, that's for sure, and I
Speaker 2: appreciate and recognize that. But unfortunately I almost paid off
Speaker 2: the whole website for the year I took care of
Speaker 2: that during the course of the year. There's a little
Speaker 2: bit left on that, and there was a lot of
Speaker 2: promises made by people that said they would cover this
Speaker 2: that third thing and did not do it. So I
Speaker 2: still have a couple outstanding bills to like, say, speaker,
Speaker 2: which has to be paid otherwise the RSS feedles shut down.
Speaker 2: I have in hand, though, a Riverside account which I
Speaker 2: want to start utilizing, but you know, it's a little
Speaker 2: unfriendly to Windows ten, and I can't install Windows eleven
Speaker 2: on my computer, and I had money set aside to
Speaker 2: try and buy a you know, a refurbished one so
Speaker 2: that it could be low with Windows eleven. And by
Speaker 2: the way, when I try to even you know, get
Speaker 2: like the trial copy of Windows eleven, my machine's not
Speaker 2: a week machine, but according to this thing, my specs
Speaker 2: are not good enough for Windows eleven. According to this thing,
Speaker 2: according to Microsoft, that thing. So I'm kind of not
Speaker 2: quite ready to animate the Rumble channel yet. But the
Speaker 2: second I have a you know, strong enough machine Windows
Speaker 2: eleven ready, we're definitely gonna start rolling with that consistently,
Speaker 2: and we're probably gonna experiment it with this live call
Speaker 2: in show on Fridays immediately, So let's leave it at that,
Speaker 2: about three minutes deep into the show, and I don't
Speaker 2: want to waste any more of it telling you that,
Speaker 2: you know what, if you don't support what's happening, it
Speaker 2: won't expand and it won't continue. But that's up to you.
Speaker 2: And I'll try and release this podcast as early as
Speaker 2: possible because some funding is time sensitive and needs to
Speaker 2: be done over the weekend. So I not only want
Speaker 2: to thank people on air, but also i'd like to
Speaker 2: collect a few addresses if there are a few to
Speaker 2: collect and literally mail people something physically, you know, nothing huge,
Speaker 2: but a thank you and a personal one at that
Speaker 2: for anybody that's given me what I hope, frankly and
Speaker 2: personally to be this I don't know, maybe last year
Speaker 2: of what I do, And you know, because I'm only
Speaker 2: taking in a year as the time as it is,
Speaker 2: and quite frankly, I only ever at maximum, wanted to
Speaker 2: live to be fifty four years old at most, and frankly,
Speaker 2: there were times I didn't want to make it that far.
Speaker 2: So you know what, I don't know if I would
Speaker 2: bother to do this another year and struggle and fight
Speaker 2: and go for that weird space where I don't have
Speaker 2: a lot of teammates or allies, and you know, think
Speaker 2: for myself and do things my own weird way. You know,
Speaker 2: maybe it's time for me to move on, but not
Speaker 2: until next April, for sure. And if I'm still breathing
Speaker 2: for my fifty fifth birthday, maybe I do something else.
Speaker 2: Maybe I don't. Maybe I wait and see what you
Speaker 2: guys want, and oddly enough, I'll let somebody else determine
Speaker 2: the future of my activities. In the meantime, still doing
Speaker 2: the baseball card collecting thing with Frankie on a no budget,
Speaker 2: so you know, it's not like I'm putting money there
Speaker 2: instead of into the radio network. But I'd love to
Speaker 2: expand it a little bit and maybe, you know, get
Speaker 2: some partners and people that will work it and I
Speaker 2: can hand it over to somebody else. I mean, hell,
Speaker 2: if they change the name but the structure stays the
Speaker 2: same and the spirit remains, I would be pleased, you know.
Speaker 2: And it's not like it's a monetary thing. It's a
Speaker 2: trust thing that I would have to establish with people,
Speaker 2: probably somebody I already know, if they want to go,
Speaker 2: you know, if they want to do it, if they
Speaker 2: want to add this to their arsenal of you know,
Speaker 2: truly independent media. Maybe I just give it to them,
Speaker 2: and then they have the audio radio station online twenty
Speaker 2: four to seven and the distribution of and all that
Speaker 2: that has the name o'celli somewhere in there, but is
Speaker 2: no longer branded that way. So long as the spirit
Speaker 2: continues in ay, I'll give you my archive and everything
Speaker 2: if we can figure it out. Also, like I said,
Speaker 2: I want to give some gifts for people that actually help.
Speaker 2: So you know what, if you have contributed recently, do
Speaker 2: send me your mailing address, the latest one, not an
Speaker 2: old one, so that I can thank you properly with
Speaker 2: something in the mail, you know, and it won't be
Speaker 2: ticking and it won't be a dead animal, I promise,
Speaker 2: unless that's what you really want. I mean, you know,
Speaker 2: we can work it out. But in the meantime, I'm
Speaker 2: going to try and have jokes and I'm still doing
Speaker 2: the am wake up thing, et cetera, et cetera. But
Speaker 2: I want to do a thank you show over the weekend,
Speaker 2: which would be a unique one for me. They all
Speaker 2: are unique in my mind, but then again, maybe I'm crazy.
Speaker 2: Any who, it is Friday and I want to talk
Speaker 2: to you three to one nine, five two seven, five
Speaker 2: zero one six. My co host be Pete is with me.
Speaker 2: Maybe he wants to talk to you guys or not.
Speaker 2: I'll let him speak for himself. But three one nine
Speaker 2: five two seven five zero one six, as advertised on
Speaker 2: social media, best I could, and I asked to be
Speaker 2: Pete to do the same. I'm sure he did. There's
Speaker 2: a live chat room that I'm not in right now
Speaker 2: because I want to focus, and quite frankly, only one
Speaker 2: of my eyes is even vaguely capable of doing that
Speaker 2: right now, because I've had series is of migrain headaches
Speaker 2: this week, so eyes not you know, gee, what a shock.
Speaker 2: Chuck is saying his vision's not good. Yeah, I know.
Speaker 2: It's also Friday, and it could be a Tuesday or
Speaker 2: a Monday, because it's never good any day, but it's
Speaker 2: especially bad today. Oh. By the way, Aaron Franz will
Speaker 2: take over the mic on time, hopefully or close to
Speaker 2: as I could land it at ten pm Eastern with
Speaker 2: the age of transitions. Then at eleven pm Eastern, Uncle,
Speaker 2: the podcast will be live, you know, with with all
Speaker 2: with all luck and tech meantime three one nine five
Speaker 2: two seven five zero one six. That is the number
Speaker 2: to get into this, you know, be Pete, I'm almost
Speaker 2: thinking we should start taking a break right after I
Speaker 2: give the numbers, give people time to consider calling in,
Speaker 2: and then do that, you know, because I want to
Speaker 2: change the format of this thing and make it more successful,
Speaker 2: make it a bit more snappy, give it a better rhythm.
Speaker 2: What do you think of that consideration somewhere in your
Speaker 2: commentary and also just in general, open it up. How
Speaker 2: you doing? What's on your mind? You know, if we
Speaker 2: get callers, we'll interrupt whatever it is we're doing. But
Speaker 2: in the meantime, how you be, Pete? Oh three one
Speaker 2: nine five two seven five zero one six because I
Speaker 2: always got to repeat this, But anyway, how you doing
Speaker 2: this particular Friday, sir?
Speaker 4: Doing good?
Speaker 5: It was a busy week of been trying to get
Speaker 5: a bunch of home and Purmose Doney's some painting.
Speaker 3: Gun the other day, so working on one. I are
Speaker 3: in a couple of things, so.
Speaker 5: A little bit here there, musing in and out, trying
Speaker 5: to catch up with the news and see what's going
Speaker 5: on in the world. Apparently the bloggest here has ticked
Speaker 5: off Trump, so he's ticked off the bloggest well not
Speaker 5: the whole bloggest here, just the new neo Nazi Broadcast
Speaker 5: Association select few.
Speaker 3: Anyway.
Speaker 5: Other than that, well, we just had what Artemis two
Speaker 5: has come back down getting ready it hasn't splashed down yet.
Speaker 5: I don't know, but apparently they went the purpose into
Speaker 5: space of any astronauts to date by going around the
Speaker 5: back side of the moon.
Speaker 4: Everybody calls it the dark side of the moon.
Speaker 3: But it's actually the backside of the moon.
Speaker 5: Okay, the dark side of the moon is on a
Speaker 5: new move and we don't see a move, so actually
Speaker 5: both sides are dark at times.
Speaker 2: You know, quick weird question, be Pete, Just quick weird
Speaker 2: question for you, due to the fact that we have
Speaker 2: a strong contingent out there and Internet land that certainly
Speaker 2: does not believe that the moon landing was real, might
Speaker 2: even think the moon itself, as Bake thinks that we've
Speaker 2: been lied to across the board about this. And I've
Speaker 2: recently gotten into more than one argument that I didn't
Speaker 2: want to regarding the moon landing and NASA and all.
Speaker 2: I'm curious you. I haven't taken a note yet, but
Speaker 2: what are the moon landing hoaks? There are people saying
Speaker 2: about Artemis. Is that like just the new TV show
Speaker 2: Special Effects? I mean, or is there are we actually
Speaker 2: trying to go this time?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I was just curious.
Speaker 4: Good, No, I saw something the other day. They're doing it.
Speaker 5: You know, all the footage that we saw for the
Speaker 5: spacecraft was actually in a studio, just like when we
Speaker 5: did the Apollo craft.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 5: So I don't understand these people. They're the same folks
Speaker 5: as the flat earthers, and yet we've yet to have
Speaker 5: one go to the edge of the Earth and say
Speaker 5: I'm here, this is what it looks like.
Speaker 3: So you know, what are you gonna do?
Speaker 5: No matter no matter what we do, no matter what
Speaker 5: mankind accomplishes, somebody out there is going to say it's fake. Yeah,
Speaker 5: And as we've seen on the blogger sphere and on
Speaker 5: the Internet, that's what gets the clicks and that's what drives.
Speaker 4: Traffic, right.
Speaker 2: And I mean, you know, it's gotten so weird that
Speaker 2: some of the stranger hopes her stuff has actually melted
Speaker 2: into the background. Now it's not the prominent thing. It's
Speaker 2: just a given fact if you're sort of in with
Speaker 2: certain people. You know, I almost wonder what Candace Owen's
Speaker 2: viewpoint is on this, you know, because she's kind of
Speaker 2: out there. I don't know. Maybe you like Candace, maybe
Speaker 2: you don't. I don't think I've ever asked you directly
Speaker 2: about what your thoughts are on her. Oh and a
Speaker 2: ps on your home improvements. By the way, you were
Speaker 2: telling us about ripping out all that wire what two
Speaker 2: weeks ago and how much it costs now and it's
Speaker 2: a big increase in cost and everything else. Did you
Speaker 2: finally get through with the whole job on the and
Speaker 2: the rewiring anyway.
Speaker 3: Now I've hit a stag right now.
Speaker 5: I've got to go and pick up a couple of
Speaker 5: breakers for the breaker box because there's different boxes out
Speaker 5: there at the two that I got don't fit, so
Speaker 5: I've got to run back to Lows and swap them
Speaker 5: for the ones that will fit my square D box.
Speaker 5: But the biggest thing is just ripping out all that
Speaker 5: old romex. I mean, this is stuff that was put
Speaker 5: in there probably back in the fifties. And this is
Speaker 5: the old like ten gauge wire that you know, as
Speaker 5: stiff as a board and thicker than hell. I mean,
Speaker 5: it's come with today's modern switches and outlets. You know,
Speaker 5: I'm using a twelve gauge on a twenty amp circuit,
Speaker 5: so you know, it's it's pretty easy to work with.
Speaker 5: But this stuff is the old type of romex that
Speaker 5: used to be encased in cloth, okay, and you know,
Speaker 5: would have paper in it. And this is in a
Speaker 5: garage where this is an old garage built in the fifties.
Speaker 5: You know, it's damp in there. It's not the it's
Speaker 5: not air tight, it's not waterproof. So I'm having to use,
Speaker 5: you know, certain things just to meet code. But now
Speaker 5: I'm not halfway through what I need to do. I
Speaker 5: just got some shop lights to get mounted up in
Speaker 5: the ceiling. All of the other stuff was fluorest and
Speaker 5: I've gone with some LED lights to see how they do.
Speaker 3: And then the biggest thing is just twice of copper.
Speaker 3: You know, it fluctuated so much.
Speaker 5: One hundred of romes could very imprice up to ten
Speaker 5: fifteen bucks, you know, in the course of a week.
Speaker 5: It just depends on where you get it and how
Speaker 5: recently they purchased it. But used to get it at
Speaker 5: Bold at places like Agra Supply. You just go in
Speaker 5: there and paid you know, like forty four cent a foot.
Speaker 3: If you're getting a hundred foot or more.
Speaker 5: It's not so easy to do that anymore. A lot
Speaker 5: of places have gone to prepackage stuff, and you know, Lows. Actually,
Speaker 5: I thought Amazon, who's got good prices on stuff, would
Speaker 5: be better than somewhere.
Speaker 3: Lowers to get. If the Lows is actually shoot for.
Speaker 3: When it comes to electrical stuff, I'm surprising.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, in fairness, you're probably dealing with like
Speaker 2: ancient stock, right, I mean, it's uh, you know, it's
Speaker 2: got to be the stuff that's been laying around a bit, right.
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, you know, electrical copper wire is just like gasoline.
Speaker 3: I mean, it was there thirty five cent gallon to
Speaker 3: put it in my tank.
Speaker 5: But the minute the price goes up to fifty cent
Speaker 5: a gallon, that's what I'm charging you, whether it cost
Speaker 5: me that or not.
Speaker 2: So it doesn't matter with the inventory level way. Yeah,
Speaker 2: So it doesn't matter about the infancy. It doesn't matter
Speaker 2: if that inventory is ten years old or ten minutes old.
Speaker 2: We're going with the current price. That's the way that rolls. Okay.
Speaker 2: I didn't know about that. With Clows. I thought, so,
Speaker 2: you know, because obviously you're not going to make price
Speaker 2: adjustments on forty thousand different kinds of like screws and bolts,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, based on how many of you?
Speaker 2: I mean, that would be what an inventory night arath
Speaker 2: to try and you know, pull that together properly, I think. Uh,
Speaker 2: but then again, maybe that's just me being crazy, you know.
Speaker 2: And I had another question for you too, Yeah, you
Speaker 2: watch it any baseball?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 3: What did I watch last week?
Speaker 4: It was?
Speaker 3: Oh crap, I forget the game that they had on?
Speaker 3: Was this Sunday night?
Speaker 5: I know I watched, uh two weeks ago, I watched
Speaker 5: the Kansas City Atlanta game?
Speaker 3: Was it Kansas City Atlanta?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: So I don't know who it will be this weekend.
Speaker 5: I'm not catching a lot of it on broadcast.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 5: TV Fox has it on one night a week and
Speaker 5: then anything else I'd have to catch on the net.
Speaker 5: I went to Prime and I went to TV and
Speaker 5: everything is for subscription now. I say prescription. It's about
Speaker 5: like a prescription cost life. Everything is subscription now. I
Speaker 5: went through Prime. I'm argu major sportsf by a subscription
Speaker 5: on top of your one hundred and thirty some odd
Speaker 5: dollars Prime membership.
Speaker 3: So it's just getting ridiculously expensive.
Speaker 5: There's and I've read something the other day there's a
Speaker 5: class action shoot somebody assuming the NFL because of the crisis,
Speaker 5: that they're charging for their NFL Prime and things like that.
Speaker 3: The thing that really ticked me off was.
Speaker 5: NCAA National Championship Game and the Final Four last weekend,
Speaker 5: Saturday night.
Speaker 3: I didn't expect it to be on TVs. I come home.
Speaker 5: Expecting CBS is going to carry the Final Four and
Speaker 5: the National Championship Game.
Speaker 3: No, both of them on TVs. I had to watch it.
Speaker 5: Somebody fired in a broadcast of off YouTube, and of
Speaker 5: course that would only last ten minutes till somebody blocked
Speaker 5: them out and you had to find it somewhere else.
Speaker 5: So it's gotten ridiculous trying to watch sports now. You know,
Speaker 5: USL is on Fox on Friday night, so we're watching
Speaker 5: the Unsuppered Football League. You know, it's just it's getting
Speaker 5: harder to watch sports without paying a fortune for it,
Speaker 5: and people are finally starting to complain.
Speaker 3: I can't believe it's taking this long, but it's ridiculous.
Speaker 2: Right. Well, you know positive note I can give you
Speaker 2: here is that you know, Peacock actually carries quite a
Speaker 2: few games and I took the advice from Eddie and
Speaker 2: figured out something. See, sometimes you buy something new and
Speaker 2: they give you, you know, like a temporary like you know,
Speaker 2: guest subscription to things, so believe it or not, like
Speaker 2: Kim had to replace her phone and I don't know why,
Speaker 2: but they gave her an online pass to a serious XM.
Speaker 2: You know, so I can't watch the games, but I
Speaker 2: can listen to I think every game on there with
Speaker 2: her free subscription. I think she's got six months of it, which, hey,
Speaker 2: we'll get me through this baseball season because you know, realistically,
Speaker 2: I only want to listen to the Mets, but if
Speaker 2: I wanted to listen to another game, and I assume
Speaker 2: they'll have the playoffs and everything as well, you know,
Speaker 2: although they did a weird thing with Netflix, and Netflix
Speaker 2: had like Opening Day Baseball, which was strange, but they
Speaker 2: only gave you the one game, the Yankees game that day,
Speaker 2: so you know, it is a nightmare though, like trying
Speaker 2: to it used to be if you knew or you know,
Speaker 2: if it was Ted Turner's team, you knew how that worked.
Speaker 2: And ever since, like nineteen seventy eight, you could watch
Speaker 2: the Braves anywhere in the country right, it was a
Speaker 2: good deal. But then you know, when everybody started breaking
Speaker 2: it out and doing it differently, well, that wasn't gonna
Speaker 2: last anymore. And I wasn't so ted. You know, in
Speaker 2: his infinite wisdom, probably fell into line at some point.
Speaker 2: And now the braves are part of everything else. But
Speaker 2: even in the old days, you had a broadcast element,
Speaker 2: and in fact, in a lot of markets was an
Speaker 2: independent station, which you know, collectively they would somehow get
Speaker 2: just the license for the one team, you know, not
Speaker 2: the full Major League Baseball package. But that way, you know, locally,
Speaker 2: you could tune into the Mets, the Yankees up in Jersey,
Speaker 2: or if you lived a little bit west, you could
Speaker 2: watch the Pillies from broadcast, and then with cable as well.
Speaker 2: Now everything is so screwed up that even if you
Speaker 2: have access to it, or like say, I try and
Speaker 2: use tune in, which has lots of free radio stations
Speaker 2: on it, to go listen to a Major League Baseball game,
Speaker 2: it literally gives me a message that due to Major
Speaker 2: League Baseball's you know, agreements, blah blah blah, you're blacked out.
Speaker 2: You can't listen to this. So I imagine that's a
Speaker 2: thing for everybody, and Major League Baseball needs to get
Speaker 2: more access to people. It needs to get more involved
Speaker 2: with people, because they are falling behind. It looks like
Speaker 2: soccer is starting to overtake them, you know, because it's
Speaker 2: more participatory for kids and stuff. And you know, the
Speaker 2: NFL has been king for a long time. I mean,
Speaker 2: America's pastime has not been America's pastime for a minute.
Speaker 2: And it's a lot of business decisions and strikes and
Speaker 2: such that have caused them to not be the attractive
Speaker 2: product really, and yet they're still full steam ahead with this.
Speaker 2: You know, you got to pay somebody a couple hundred
Speaker 2: bucks if you want to watch the games for the year.
Speaker 2: You know, it's like the old Prince of minor season
Speaker 2: ticket almost yes, sorry.
Speaker 3: Oh, at least at least a season ticket.
Speaker 4: I can go, well, that's the thing.
Speaker 3: I can go on Amazon, fine, which you know, I've.
Speaker 5: Gotten my money back for my subscription based on the
Speaker 5: shipping charges. I haven't been charged for all this stuff
Speaker 5: that I ordered. Okay, so it pays for itself in
Speaker 5: that respect. But I can get Peacock through Amazon and
Speaker 5: still the same thing as if I just bought it
Speaker 5: straight out from Peacock.
Speaker 3: Now some of the stations, like ABC on Saturdays.
Speaker 5: They have Hockey Saturday. They'll have three games back to back,
Speaker 5: three hockey masks, which is good. But like Fox when
Speaker 5: they show baseball, I'm always seeing the Braids. I didn't
Speaker 5: like the Braves back when Turner had them on his network,
Speaker 5: tried to call them America's team.
Speaker 3: I'm tired of the Braids. I don't want to what.
Speaker 5: I'd rather watch any other two teams out there than
Speaker 5: the Braids.
Speaker 3: I'd rather watch the Yankees and the Braves. And I'm
Speaker 3: a Toronto fan. Shows you how much I hate the Braves.
Speaker 3: But I just get tired of it.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 5: It's like you get this game because they're in your region,
Speaker 5: so you guys must like them.
Speaker 3: Well, if I don't wanted to watch Atlanta.
Speaker 5: I would go out and pay for cable so I
Speaker 5: could watch TNT or TVs whoever's carrying them now. And
Speaker 5: you know, because that it used to be on Turner's
Speaker 5: network every game. Well, I'm not a Bravey fan. I'd
Speaker 5: rather watch anybody else?
Speaker 2: Was he? Now?
Speaker 3: Women were at that part of easion watching hockey or.
Speaker 5: Or because it's in between seasons, you know, college basketball
Speaker 5: is over with we get women's professional soccer. Well, I'm sorry,
Speaker 5: but if I want to watch quality soccer, i'd rather
Speaker 5: watch the Premier League out of the UK or men's teams,
Speaker 5: because this women's sports thing that they're pushing now on
Speaker 5: the weekends has made TV impossible to watch.
Speaker 3: I don't care about women's volleyball.
Speaker 5: I do not give a damn about women's professional volleyball.
Speaker 3: Okay, but that's what.
Speaker 5: We're subjected to on broadcast TV or women's whatever. If
Speaker 5: I want to watch quality sports, I'm not watching women
Speaker 5: Why do you think the WNBA has lost money every
Speaker 5: year since they've been in existence, and if it wasn't
Speaker 5: for the NBA subsidizing them, they wouldn't be around.
Speaker 4: It's because it's not qual ball.
Speaker 5: I don't even watch the NBA, but i'd rather watch
Speaker 5: that which NBC has.
Speaker 4: Is it Sunday and Monday nights? I believe it is.
Speaker 3: They'll have NBA games thought, yeah, now, but other.
Speaker 5: Than that, you know, trying to watch sports on broadcast
Speaker 5: TVs damn near impossible.
Speaker 3: It's not there.
Speaker 2: Well, see, there's a funny thing there too, is that
Speaker 2: I live in Georgia, right, so you'd figure there are
Speaker 2: Braves fans here, and there are. But guess what you
Speaker 2: don't figure is that you'd think, Okay, so they got
Speaker 2: the easy access there there, you know, pretty much like
Speaker 2: when I lived in New York and New Jersey, I
Speaker 2: was guaranteed, you know, say half of the games, you know,
Speaker 2: half of the Mets games were on a broadcast channel.
Speaker 2: They were on wwo R, although the Mets and Yankees
Speaker 2: have literally traded broadcast networks now because the the Yankees
Speaker 2: are on ww R and the Mets are on Channel eleven.
Speaker 2: But but here's the funky thing here in uh, you know,
Speaker 2: in Georgia, even though you live here, if there is
Speaker 2: I think it's some sort of agreement, like if they
Speaker 2: don't sell out so much of the stadium, the game
Speaker 2: is blacked out, So even if you live in Georgia,
Speaker 2: you might be stuck with I think they give us
Speaker 2: a lot of San Francisco Giants, and there's some other
Speaker 2: team that's like constantly on there. It's not super popular,
Speaker 2: like an American League team. I'm trying to think who
Speaker 2: it is, but like you have those options, but they
Speaker 2: don't go on on TBS or whatever or TNT there's
Speaker 2: no game there.
Speaker 3: So well, if that's the blackout rule.
Speaker 5: Both Norse professional sports have that, where if.
Speaker 3: They don't sell out in that in that franchise, like.
Speaker 5: It used to be in the NFL, we always got
Speaker 5: before the Carolina Panthers came around, we'd always get to
Speaker 5: watch it the Redskins games, they were big in this area.
Speaker 5: And then once Carolina when they first started, there were
Speaker 5: a few games that they didn't sell out and we
Speaker 5: were living, well, it was a forty minutes from Charlotte
Speaker 5: in Hickory, and they would black out the broadcast.
Speaker 3: Wanting people to buy tickets and go to the game.
Speaker 5: Well, it's too damn expensive to buy tickets and drive
Speaker 5: forty minutes to Charlotte, paper parking and dinner and everything else,
Speaker 5: so we would.
Speaker 3: Try to catch the game on TV. Now it's not
Speaker 3: so bad now.
Speaker 5: Because of the way they've worked out the contracts of
Speaker 5: carrying either the NFC or the AFC, whichever network carries
Speaker 5: that game. Fox usually carries the NFC games, but we
Speaker 5: always see the Panthers on the local CBS station for
Speaker 5: some reason the way the contract works out, so we're
Speaker 5: not missing games. But you know that standard in that,
Speaker 5: you know, that's how they protected ticket sales for a
Speaker 5: long time.
Speaker 2: My apologies for the barking dog, but oh when I
Speaker 2: forgot to mention this, anybody who's like, you know, anywhere
Speaker 2: near making Georgia or Bepete if you want to take
Speaker 2: a road trip. Got quite a few puppies in the
Speaker 2: house again. But they're not little dogs. This is a
Speaker 2: stray dog that missus Oh let in. And it is
Speaker 2: a big headed, partially bulldog, you know, like most dogs
Speaker 2: are in the South. It looks like to me most
Speaker 2: mixed breed's got some kind of you know, pit bull
Speaker 2: or bulldog in them. And that is that big bulldog
Speaker 2: making noise in the other room. That's the MoMA bulldog. Anyways,
Speaker 2: got a bunch of puppies here that I'm gonna have
Speaker 2: to figure out a way to read home because missus
Speaker 2: O brings home stray animals. I know, the joke should
Speaker 2: be that's how she got me. But if you happen
Speaker 2: to be somewhere nearby, I have big puppies and I
Speaker 2: have little dogs even that need new homes. But big
Speaker 2: puppies are the big problem because as soon as they
Speaker 2: start eating food, I can barely afford to keep usped
Speaker 2: and you know missus O is not going to drop
Speaker 2: him off at a shelter in a box, which, by
Speaker 2: the way, there's a surcharge for if you get caught
Speaker 2: doing it, uh here in Georgia. So you know, we
Speaker 2: got to try and find homes for these pumps. Uh
Speaker 2: So anyways, just in the side there, you want a
Speaker 2: dog be beat for your house? You want you want
Speaker 2: a big old dog. Oh no, no.
Speaker 5: No, If I'm will get a big old dog, I
Speaker 5: almost spend the money and go get me a bloodhound.
Speaker 2: Oh but this is free. And I'm telling you these
Speaker 2: are big, powerful, pretty looking things. Uh and they're mostly
Speaker 2: black and white.
Speaker 4: I owned I owned a pit bull.
Speaker 5: I owned a pit bull at one time and I
Speaker 5: sent him to somebody out in the country when he
Speaker 5: chewed through a chain ling fence to get to a
Speaker 5: dog and heat, and somebody wanted to sue me for
Speaker 5: the damages and for the vet bill and everything else
Speaker 5: for his dog. That was a heat that by going
Speaker 5: that route.
Speaker 2: Okay, well, these aren't pure pitfulls.
Speaker 5: He literally through a chain link fence.
Speaker 2: We had one, you know, another one that missus O
Speaker 2: brought home. This this was way more pitbull than anything else,
Speaker 2: one of those like red nosed you know pitbulls, right,
Speaker 2: and uh he decided he wanted you you've seen Alice,
Speaker 2: the little CHEWEENI he decided he wanted to have his
Speaker 2: way with her because she was in he and uh
Speaker 2: so we shut him in Frankie's room and he literally
Speaker 2: chewed through the bottom corner of the door to go
Speaker 2: get like He's like, I'm going to get in that.
Speaker 2: And he couldn't figure out how to do it. Once
Speaker 2: he even got a hold of her, and she was voluntary.
Speaker 2: You should have seen her. He kept sliding her around.
Speaker 2: It was like she was hiking. He was hiking the
Speaker 2: weienie dog, you know, like putting it through it like
Speaker 2: root root. He couldn't get it done.
Speaker 5: But anyway, bones, I went out Christmas and got mine one.
Speaker 5: It was about two and a half feet long, and
Speaker 5: the knuckle on the end of it was as big
Speaker 5: as a baseball. The other end it was about the
Speaker 5: size of a softball. And I gave that thing to
Speaker 5: him Christmas morning. His eyes lit up. Now, his normal
Speaker 5: chew toy was a three foot piece of four by four,
Speaker 5: and I gave him this thing.
Speaker 3: He sat there in my.
Speaker 5: Living room and he had that thing gnawed down to
Speaker 5: nothing in about twenty minutes.
Speaker 3: I was the chewest dog ever seen in my life.
Speaker 2: So before Christmas Day was over, before Christmas Day was over,
Speaker 2: big raw hide knotty ass tough toy chew toy literally
Speaker 2: was turned into splinters.
Speaker 5: Before before I finished my Christmas breakfast to hell with,
Speaker 5: before the day was over.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a chewing and need no.
Speaker 3: Time, but I have to. The dog did get a
Speaker 3: commendation though from the Greenville Police Department.
Speaker 5: Oh really, we used to Yeah, we used to have
Speaker 5: a farmhouse on the middle of the main draft going
Speaker 5: through Greenville on Highway eleven. We had a farmhouse, okay,
Speaker 5: and it had tobacco field on one side, cornfield on
Speaker 5: the other side. It was between a hotel and a
Speaker 5: little strip shopping center that had a grocery store and
Speaker 5: it had a pick and pay shoe store in it.
Speaker 5: And one night there was a driveway that went came
Speaker 5: into our house, but it also looped back behind the
Speaker 5: tobacco barns and came out on the other side of
Speaker 5: the house on the other side of a big hedge row.
Speaker 3: And that was the drive that the farmer would use.
Speaker 5: I'm sitting there watching TV one night and it's you know,
Speaker 5: it's summer, the windows are open, it feels nice in
Speaker 5: the house, and all of a sudden, five cop cars
Speaker 5: come flying in my driveway, lights going okay, and I'm thinking,
Speaker 5: what the hell? And they zoomed past the house and
Speaker 5: they loop around in that driveway, and I go and
Speaker 5: look out the kitchen window and there's spotlights going across.
Speaker 5: The tobacco field had just been planted, so the plants
Speaker 5: were short, you know, maybe eight inches fall. And I
Speaker 5: see these spotlights shining over towards the shopping center, and
Speaker 5: I see this guy running and about that time I
Speaker 5: hear my dog. He jumped a seven foot fence and
Speaker 5: started chasing this guy. This guy had broken into the
Speaker 5: shoe store and he decided to cut across. He was
Speaker 5: staying in the apartments or in the hotel that was
Speaker 5: on the other side of us. He's running across the
Speaker 5: field with his armful shoe boxes of Nikes, and my
Speaker 5: dogs fight him and started chasing him. So the next
Speaker 5: thing I know, I got hop cars flying in the driveway.
Speaker 5: Off all of a sudden, this blurder goes past my door,
Speaker 5: and my dog is chasing after him, parting, and they've
Speaker 5: run across Memorial Drive, which was a forty five lanes
Speaker 5: at that time. They run across and he cuts between
Speaker 5: two houses, not knowing that there was a solid wooden
Speaker 5: fence there, and he runs right to smack into that fence,
Speaker 5: and my dog is on his heels.
Speaker 3: So I go running out the door, calling at the dog.
Speaker 5: The cops go running across the street.
Speaker 4: So I go over there and have to get my.
Speaker 3: Dog off the guy.
Speaker 5: And when I get back to the house and look,
Speaker 5: these guys are shining their spotlights across the tobacco field
Speaker 5: and there must be six or seven boxes that are
Speaker 5: flied open, you know, the tissue paper they wrap the
Speaker 5: shoes in. The wind has caught it. It's blowing everywhere.
Speaker 5: Cop comes up and he says, you know, like say,
Speaker 5: thanks for your dog. Weren't for him, I don't think
Speaker 5: we'd have caught the guy. You know, are you going
Speaker 5: to He says, well, now, if he'd have bit him,
Speaker 5: we might have to press charges.
Speaker 4: I said, well, wait a minute, he can't cut.
Speaker 5: Through my yard. He goes, well, you've got a good
Speaker 5: point there. Tell you what The next thing the fact
Speaker 5: at the teckt it was, you know, he had to
Speaker 5: come out and take some measurements at the store.
Speaker 3: Crap like that. He came out of the house because
Speaker 3: I'd really like to thank you for having your dog there.
Speaker 5: If it wasn't for him, we'd have never caught the guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because you described the guy as a blur going by,
Speaker 2: so he was booking. And how many boxes of Nikes
Speaker 2: did he have?
Speaker 5: Yeah, he had four under each arm when he started running.
Speaker 3: By the time he got to my house, he had none.
Speaker 2: This would have been a priceless And I.
Speaker 5: Think what happened was is my dog caught him halfway
Speaker 5: across the field and started chasing him. That's when he
Speaker 5: dumped everything to start a hauling ass and about the
Speaker 5: time he gets to the house as a time, the
Speaker 5: car start flying in the driveway from both sides, right.
Speaker 2: This would have been a priceless YouTube video.
Speaker 1: BPD.
Speaker 2: You really should have taken out You gotta you know
Speaker 2: what you gotta do some of the stuff that you
Speaker 2: run into. I'm telling you, man, you need to just
Speaker 2: capture some of it on videos, some of the happenings
Speaker 2: that you come across, because I think you would make
Speaker 2: an amazing YouTube video all by yourself. And if not,
Speaker 2: you know what, we get integrated into the Friday Show
Speaker 2: where you're like, check out what I captured, Like B
Speaker 2: Pete's real video of the week instead of your music
Speaker 2: video of the week. It would be like B Pete's
Speaker 2: home video of the week. You know just what happened
Speaker 2: while be Pete was.
Speaker 5: No, Well, you know I need to I really need
Speaker 5: to get out in this town of Little More.
Speaker 3: You know, we're a little crossroads town.
Speaker 5: But the other day it's cutting downtown going to the
Speaker 5: dollar store to get some cigarettes, and there were twelve
Speaker 5: Pitt County Sheriff cars parked in front of the local
Speaker 5: police department. So they were going after this. They got
Speaker 5: a tip that somebody was coming through town. So we
Speaker 5: go further down the road and sure enough, they're sitting
Speaker 5: at this intersection in the next intersection, and it's like
Speaker 5: somebody has tipped them off. Somebody in some car delivering
Speaker 5: something they're not supposed to deliver is getting ready to
Speaker 5: come into town. The only other big thing that's happened
Speaker 5: here in the past two months, as they went around
Speaker 5: and started busting all of eight shops for selling gummies
Speaker 5: and things like that without the proper uh permits.
Speaker 4: He is.
Speaker 5: So that was kind of news for the day. But

Speaker 2: Well, look, look, you know what to do. Well, you
Speaker 2: know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna take a quick break.
Speaker 2: I would like people to call in. I didn't realize
Speaker 2: you were still in Pitt County where you're at, because
Speaker 2: Pitt County is where I think either. No, I was
Speaker 2: I in Pitt County. No, my daughter was in Pitt
Speaker 2: County because she went to like, yeah, I was in Lenore.
Speaker 2: My daughter went to uh Pitt County, like the high school.
Speaker 2: Uh there's some kind of Pitt High School there. And
Speaker 2: I had to go and do work there as a
Speaker 2: glass glacier. It was so funny, like I'm there working, well,
Speaker 2: my daughter's in school, and uh, like it was a
Speaker 2: weird thing. And I was like, hey, you know, my
Speaker 2: daughter's in here, you know, and like on my lunch break,
Speaker 2: I was like I'd like to say hi to her.
Speaker 2: But I'm a mess, you know, from all this cement
Speaker 2: and everything we had to close down. I'm part of
Speaker 2: the hallway all that, but they were like the Pitt
Speaker 2: County Pirates or something. I saw hung up in the rafters,
Speaker 2: real proud of their sports teams, and and I was
Speaker 2: just like. I called her later that night, I was like,
Speaker 2: you know, I was at your school. She's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I heard. I was like, you heard. Yeah. My vice

Speaker 2: like a new like you know, almost like a drive
Speaker 2: through window, but inside the high school. So we had
Speaker 2: to put in a new window there among our other jobs.
Speaker 2: And it made a hell of a mess cut and
Speaker 2: draw all the cinder blocks and all, you know. But
Speaker 2: so we had to close down part of the hallway
Speaker 2: so the kids didn't wind up, you know, breathing in
Speaker 2: all the freaking cement that was being pulverized, et cetera,
Speaker 2: et cetera. But anyways, I didn't realize you were in
Speaker 2: Pitt County because that was pretty close to where I was.
Speaker 2: You're right, I was in Lenore, but now I remember
Speaker 2: my daughter was in Pitt County. Anyways, this is irrelevant

Speaker 2: do with his own little money. And uh, you know,
Speaker 2: he's eleven and he's getting big. He is now taller
Speaker 2: than his mama, and I think he's going to approach

Speaker 2: necessarily go with that theme, but I was having fun.
Speaker 2: You know anything else of interest? Do you want to
Speaker 2: talk about this week? Or you know something you've observed
Speaker 2: something strange?
Speaker 4: Yeah, go ahead, Well, just one story.
Speaker 3: I've been following them in the past.
Speaker 5: I had mentioned some work done by a journalist named
Speaker 5: Steve Baker who was working for The Blaze, and he
Speaker 5: did some extensive work on the testimony of Capitol Police
Speaker 5: officers that were involved in the January sixth trials of
Speaker 5: a few people.
Speaker 3: And basically he went through the video of the.
Speaker 5: Capital Complex and found out that these guys had committed
Speaker 5: perjury several times, like the.
Speaker 2: Security I'm sorry, like the security cams in the Capitol building.
Speaker 2: And he was like going through and putting it together.
Speaker 2: See I'm not aware of this guy. You might have
Speaker 2: been following it a bit.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he good.
Speaker 5: He was hired by the Blaze. He wasn't independent and
Speaker 5: he was hired by the Blaze. So he went through
Speaker 5: and he found all of this video footage that they
Speaker 5: were allowed. In fact, he said that you know, they
Speaker 5: were offered journalists were offered the ability to go and
Speaker 5: look at these videos and and he was one of
Speaker 5: those that signed up for it, including well in fact,
Speaker 5: regular taxpayers could have signed up to go and look
Speaker 5: at these videos. But he said at the time it
Speaker 5: was him and a few others, so that you know,
Speaker 5: he had a whole staff of people and he was
Speaker 5: telling them what the for at what time? This camera,
Speaker 5: this hallway, this, you know whatever. Anyway, he was able
Speaker 5: to prove that a couple of the Capitol police officers
Speaker 5: that were very instrumental in getting convictions against some of
Speaker 5: the guys from January sixth, committed perjury and they're currently
Speaker 5: one of the House groups is looking into this. Anyway,
Speaker 5: he has been fired by the Blaze, and I noticed
Speaker 5: a story here a couple of days ago. Apparently last
Speaker 5: week on Tuesday, he was He's the one that came
Speaker 5: out with the story for The Blaze that the January
Speaker 5: sixth pipe bomber was, in his opinion at that time,
Speaker 5: a Capitol Police officer that was thinking that they were
Speaker 5: involved in a training mission and placed one, if not
Speaker 5: both of the pipe bombs that they found. One was
Speaker 5: found next to the DNC headquarters. The other one was
Speaker 5: found in an alleyway between the Capitol Club and the RNC.
Speaker 2: You might, if you might, if I interject something here,
Speaker 2: because it's interesting to me that, you know what, I
Speaker 2: remember the offers of video and access that were first
Speaker 2: granted to like any journalist of any description independence even
Speaker 2: if you are a YouTuber, because it was passed around.
Speaker 2: And the funny thing is that even people that were
Speaker 2: very concerned and were like literally running fundraisers to try
Speaker 2: and help, you know, people that they thought were wrongly convicted,
Speaker 2: et cetera. Uh, you know, going by the J six
Speaker 2: choir CD because it'll fund them, you know everything, right,
Speaker 2: And the people that were literally organizing like you know,
Speaker 2: mountains of documents and also asking their listeners' viewers, et cetera,
Speaker 2: to to help pay for databases and work to be
Speaker 2: done so that all this stuff could be coalated and
Speaker 2: everything else right, they wanted to see every court document
Speaker 2: that was being generated at the time. What was really
Speaker 2: strange is not too many people went and signed up
Speaker 2: at all to go look at the massive video footage,
Speaker 2: you know, And like, for me, it was sort of like,
Speaker 2: I wasn't I didn't want to go that deep because
Speaker 2: it's just like, man, you know, I know what I'm
Speaker 2: gonna find, and what it's gonna be is a twisted
Speaker 2: mess of you know, you're gonna have no shortage of
Speaker 2: people lying, you know, because I have a look and
Speaker 2: you're probably not always pleased with this, but you know,
Speaker 2: I have a generally negative attitude when it comes to
Speaker 2: the honesty of anybody wearing a badge. And the fact
Speaker 2: is that I would have expected no less than those
Speaker 2: people lying, than those people misstating stuff. I mean, I'm
Speaker 2: the guy who's read through you know a lot of these,
Speaker 2: you know, bits of paperwork that the police generate, and
Speaker 2: I always find not only inconsistencies with their own stories,
Speaker 2: but I always find inconsistencies with reality quite often. You know,
Speaker 2: people write full, like four or five page reports, handwritten
Speaker 2: on stuff, and then you discover they weren't even there,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like you literally discover. And
Speaker 2: that happened with the Dallas Police big time. Where like
Speaker 2: I'm sitting there interviewing somebody and I did this. I
Speaker 2: interviewed I don't know about one hundred cops that were
Speaker 2: on the force that day in general, and I have,
Speaker 2: you know, handwritten stuff and cassettes in my archive in Jersey.
Speaker 2: And what's interesting is I would get all the way
Speaker 2: through an interview with somebody about like one particular report
Speaker 2: right from that weekend, and I would ask him, you know,
Speaker 2: very specific questions, Okay, well when did you see this?
Speaker 2: Who was there with you? You know, all these kinds
Speaker 2: of things. I would get through it. I'd have a
Speaker 2: massive you know, they'd have a five page report that
Speaker 2: they wrote and then typed down to like two pages, say, right,
Speaker 2: this was a general sort of template for what was happening.
Speaker 2: And by the time I'm done with them, at the
Speaker 2: end of all this, I go through all these details,
Speaker 2: I come to find out that really that report represented
Speaker 2: two or three guys and one guy signed it. Only
Speaker 2: one guy signed it, but two or three guys contributed
Speaker 2: to the information in there. And sometimes the guy who
Speaker 2: signed it and appears to be the author of it
Speaker 2: isn't even necessarily a key guy in the situation at all.
Speaker 2: So you got to figure out who else was involved
Speaker 2: in putting the information in this report that this guy
Speaker 2: is signing his name to. And you'd like, go, okay,
Speaker 2: so maybe DPDS corrupt or whatever. Da da da. But
Speaker 2: here's the thing, this was like standard operating practice with
Speaker 2: these guys. And I found this in cases in New Jersey,
Speaker 2: same thing, like stuff that was personal to me, where
Speaker 2: it was like, you know, different cops would sign off
Speaker 2: on things, or somebody's sergeant or the watch commander would
Speaker 2: put his signature on something and he wasn't even there.
Speaker 2: You know, this was witness, This was picked up, this
Speaker 2: was collected this way. He's basically swearing that he knows
Speaker 2: all these details and he didn't have eyeballs on the situation,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. I discovered that in various towns,
Speaker 2: places you've probably never heard of in New Jersey, in
Speaker 2: different circumstances. And so for me, the idea that the
Speaker 2: cops like could be contradicted by actual, you know, a
Speaker 2: video keeping chronological track of real things happening. Not a
Speaker 2: shock at all, but something I didn't want to try
Speaker 2: and untangle because it just looked to me like there
Speaker 2: was gonna be a big mess. There was gonna be
Speaker 2: guys that were supposedly perpetrators who were planted there. Uh,
Speaker 2: there was gonna be you know, provocateurs, and it's just
Speaker 2: like you could see it coming a mile away.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 2: I know a lot of other people be like, oh, well, well,
Speaker 2: you mean there's no honest cops, and I look, I'm
Speaker 2: not even trying to quantify it. I'm just saying that
Speaker 2: my attitude was these things were a certainty in there,
Speaker 2: you know, oh yeah.
Speaker 5: And this was this was something that Steve Baker brought out,
Speaker 5: is that one of the officers, Harry Dunn, who was
Speaker 5: you know, he was made the big celebrity because he
Speaker 5: was the one involved with the oath keepers and uh,
Speaker 5: you know, he was the one claiming that they were
Speaker 5: uh threatening and called him again word and this and that,
Speaker 5: and well Steve Baker sat down and he started at
Speaker 5: a time he was there as a reporter on the sixth.
Speaker 5: In fact, he actually got charged well after the fact
Speaker 5: for trespass and was convicted for being there as a
Speaker 5: journalist covering what was going on. Anyway, he finds where
Speaker 5: Harry Dunn flat lied through his teeth when it came
Speaker 5: to the oathkeeper's trial and the other cop that was
Speaker 5: involved that backed him up. Baker proves by the capitol
Speaker 5: videos that he was not where he said he was
Speaker 5: and could not have witnessed what he said he witnessed
Speaker 5: because it.
Speaker 3: Happened before he ever got back.
Speaker 5: He was one of those that was in charge of
Speaker 5: getting House members out of the capitol. So there's a
Speaker 5: series of tunnels from the Capitol to the office buildings
Speaker 5: and that, and he shows on video where this cop
Speaker 5: was not where he said he was and therefore could
Speaker 5: not have witnessed what And I mean, he's put it
Speaker 5: all together.
Speaker 3: Anyway, he was working for the block when he did this.
Speaker 3: Well a week ago.
Speaker 5: When that story came out about the January sixth pipe bomber,
Speaker 5: and he was the one that came up with the
Speaker 5: Gate analysis and some other things based on video that
Speaker 5: said that the person that placed those bombs supposedly and
Speaker 5: this is the footage that was released by the FBI
Speaker 5: of the suspect that placed those two pipe bombs on
Speaker 5: the night of January fifth, that it was this Capitol
Speaker 5: Police officer who was at the Capitol on the sixth,
Speaker 5: but since then has left the Capitol Police and has
Speaker 5: gone to work for security for the CIA. And he
Speaker 5: made this claim based on this Gate analysis and some
Speaker 5: other things, and he was put basically under a gag
Speaker 5: order by the Blaze lawyers. And let me mention that
Speaker 5: you know everybody is asociates Glenn Beck with the Blaze.
Speaker 5: Glenn Beck does not own the Blaze. He hasn't owned
Speaker 5: it for years. It was sold some time ago. He
Speaker 5: had nothing to do with.
Speaker 3: Steve Baker being hired or fired.
Speaker 5: But after he put that story out about this Capitol
Speaker 5: Police officer planning the pipe bombs, he was put under
Speaker 5: a gag order by the company, by the lawyers for
Speaker 5: the company because they were worried about a lawsuit. Now
Speaker 5: there is a law firm that is representing supposedly this
Speaker 5: Capitol Police officer who Baker says was the one that
Speaker 5: placed them, and they're one of these eighteen hundred dollars
Speaker 5: an hour, we will ruin your business type of law firms,
Speaker 5: and his contention is is, you know, how does somebody
Speaker 5: making the money she's maken affording an eighteen hundred dollars
Speaker 5: an hour legal team.
Speaker 3: You know there's more behind this.
Speaker 5: Well, anyway, he put out the story, he was put
Speaker 5: under a gag order. Finally they said, you know, you
Speaker 5: will submit, and he was submitting all of his stuff
Speaker 5: too legal for them to go over before, and they
Speaker 5: wouldn't let him release any more of the story because
Speaker 5: they're worried about getting sued. So he finally just told him.
Speaker 5: He says, look, you know, I'm not going to quit,
Speaker 5: but I'm not going to subject myself to this ridiculous
Speaker 5: You know, I have gone through all the hoops that
Speaker 5: you want me to go through, and you still won't
Speaker 5: release the stuff. I'm going public. To hell with this
Speaker 5: gag order. I'm going public with what I know. So
Speaker 5: the Blaze fired him last week and now he's out
Speaker 5: on his own and he has bought out the very
Speaker 5: day that he was fired by the Blaze. Brian Cole Junior.
Speaker 5: Who is this guy that they're accused of planting the
Speaker 5: pipe bombs? This autistic guy that you know suddenly out
Speaker 5: of the blue, apparently they had a suspect twenty twenty one,
Speaker 5: but the FBI never followed up on it. Okay, And
Speaker 5: it was when Steve Baker came out with this story
Speaker 5: last November that suddenly a month later, oh no, we
Speaker 5: have this suspect and we've made an arrest, and it's
Speaker 5: this autistic guy that lives in the suburbs in his
Speaker 5: parents' basement and he's the one who did it.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 5: The day Steve Baker was fired, his defense lawyers filed
Speaker 5: a motion in court saying, we want discovery on this,
Speaker 5: this and this because we found out that the Capitol
Speaker 5: police officer who was named in an article as a
Speaker 5: suspect or a person of interest sailed their polygraph exam
Speaker 5: when they were asked two specific questions, did you plant
Speaker 5: these pipe bombs? Did you plant them on the night
Speaker 5: of the fifth? And this person failed to polygraph? Okay,
Speaker 5: this isn't the orson is now sudden work for the CIA.
Speaker 2: Right, so it's not the autistic See, the autistic guy
Speaker 2: story was kind of weird to begin with, because what
Speaker 2: I understood is it's getting ready to fall apart. There's
Speaker 2: a guy who basically never leaves his parents' basement, like
Speaker 2: for any reason, suddenly decides and who knows how even
Speaker 2: got the material allegedly to build a pipe bomb, right uh,
Speaker 2: suddenly leaves the basement, which he hasn't done for like
Speaker 2: years for any significant you know, outing, decides to go
Speaker 2: to DC and put down pipe bombs and all that.
Speaker 2: So somebody who's socially awkward and is not accustomed to
Speaker 2: traveling or anything else unassisted, I think was the story
Speaker 2: gets there and plants pipe bombs. I mean, am I
Speaker 2: remembering something wrong here?
Speaker 4: No, you got that part right.
Speaker 5: In fact, Steve Baker did an interview supposedly with one
Speaker 5: of the one of the neighbors of this house where
Speaker 5: this guy lived with his parents, and he basically told
Speaker 5: Steve Baker, I've been watching that kid walk for ten years.
Speaker 5: That's not him in that video. That's not his gait,
Speaker 5: that's not him, that's not how he walks. That is
Speaker 5: not him. It's the story is getting ready to fall apart. Apparently,
Speaker 5: before Steve Baker put that story out last November, several
Speaker 5: people from the seventh floor of the Jagger Hoover Building
Speaker 5: called The Blaze and told them to shut him up,
Speaker 5: do not release that story.
Speaker 3: And the Blaze freaked.
Speaker 2: Well these kind of things. Yeah, these kinds of things
Speaker 2: have gone on now. You know, I don't know how
Speaker 2: to feel about the entity called the Blaze because I mean,
Speaker 2: they're the most recent thing to put me on television.
Speaker 2: Even that organization. They still operate out of Dallas. But
Speaker 2: I mean, I have no idea who's really in charge
Speaker 2: over there or anything I was on. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 2: it was on that channel.
Speaker 4: It was started.
Speaker 5: It was started by Glenn Beck, right, No, I know
Speaker 5: that part. Yeah, but he sold it several years ago
Speaker 5: to a private entity that bought it. What he does
Speaker 5: is in he and now sis the first year he
Speaker 5: started his new venture, which is called the Torch Media.
Speaker 3: What he does is he licenses what he does to
Speaker 3: the Blaze.
Speaker 2: Cute from the Blaze to the Torch. Yeah, so so
Speaker 2: from the Blaze to the Torch. And now he's like
Speaker 2: an independent. It's kind of like the people that were
Speaker 2: working for the History Channel and then they went and
Speaker 2: created their own production companies and now they feed you know,
Speaker 2: ancient aliens or whatever over to the History Channel. But
Speaker 2: they're not technically part of the History Channel anymore. They
Speaker 2: just make content for them. So you're telling me that's
Speaker 2: Beck's relationship with Okay, look, we do have a caller.
Speaker 2: This is very interesting to me, and I want to
Speaker 2: learn a little more about it, but uh, I want
Speaker 2: to give Uh it looks like Danny is on the line.
Speaker 2: I want to get him on and see what's on
Speaker 2: his mind. And then we got time. We'll get back
Speaker 2: to this, you know, depending on what happens. Yeah, because
Speaker 2: I find this interesting.
Speaker 5: Uh, and this is this is basically what I've been
Speaker 5: dealing with for the past four days, trying to because
Speaker 5: I didn't know that Steve Baker had been fired until
Speaker 5: I saw something on Twitter just a couple of days ago.
Speaker 3: So I've been trying to play catch up, right, And
Speaker 3: that's where we are.
Speaker 2: I'm on board with we need to support real independent journalism. Uh,
Speaker 2: it's just that sometimes there's a lot of wolves in
Speaker 2: sheeps clothing.
Speaker 3: Excuse me, Oh, absolutely. You know where people behave podcast
Speaker 3: right now?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean people behave like they're independent journalists and
Speaker 2: they're like whistleblowers and everything else, and then you check
Speaker 2: into them a little bit and it turns out, yeah,
Speaker 2: their loyalties might be paid for by somebody who doesn't
Speaker 2: make them unbiased, you know, when their bills are It's
Speaker 2: sort of like the weird thing that happened a while ago,
Speaker 2: if you remember the Vanilla Isis thing out in Oregon
Speaker 2: where they were saying, oh, look at these the evil
Speaker 2: patriots are over there and they've seized a bird sanctuary
Speaker 2: and all that. The whole time, you know, they have
Speaker 2: this allegedly independent journalist with them.
Speaker 3: And the guy you're describing, like Tucker Carlson or something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but for a second there he was. He was
Speaker 2: kind of getting famous. Well, Tucker Carlson's a whole other
Speaker 2: you know, anybody who thinks that guy is anything but
Speaker 2: a plant for anyhow, the Tucker Carlson's a joke. But
Speaker 2: you know, I mean place. But no, this guy, though,
Speaker 2: was out there allegedly being an independent journalist and he
Speaker 2: was the only one they were letting in and all this.
Speaker 2: But it turns out that what he really ended up
Speaker 2: functioning as is somebody collecting evidence, you know, for the prosecution,
Speaker 2: and then he's participated. Look, there is a difference, and
Speaker 2: this is why there's you know, issues with the whole
Speaker 2: Don Lemon thing. You can be a journalist there and
Speaker 2: sometimes get swept up and arrested. But you're not participating
Speaker 2: in the event. You are, you know, memorializing it, you
Speaker 2: are reporting on it. Yeah, but some people it's yes, good.
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, it's like Steve Baker.
Speaker 5: He was at in January sixth covering the rally and
Speaker 5: then went over to the Capitol and documented what was
Speaker 5: going on there, and he ends up getting a call saying,
Speaker 5: we have an indictment. You're going to be placed under arrest.
Speaker 5: We'll give you the option to turn yourself in. Yeah, well,
Speaker 5: just get in charge with trespassing.
Speaker 2: Look, here's the thing where I come down on it.
Speaker 2: It's a very fine line, and some of these pricks
Speaker 2: cross it. They deserve to be prosecuted because they're now
Speaker 2: participating and trying to hold up a shield of i'm press,
Speaker 2: don't shoot me, don't arrest me. But they're there to participate,
Speaker 2: and that is a dishonest thing, and I think they
Speaker 2: should be prosecuted as much as can be.
Speaker 3: Oh absolutely.
Speaker 2: But if you're there as a journalist objectively and you
Speaker 2: are recording, reporting and transmitting information, no matter who it,
Speaker 2: you know rubs the wrong way, they should be protected.
Speaker 2: As somebody who is exercising that freedom of the press,
Speaker 2: which is memorialized in the Constitution. However, there are too
Speaker 2: many instances of people that hold it up as a
Speaker 2: shield and they're full of crap. They're just there to
Speaker 2: participate in the event, and they think they have a
Speaker 2: special extra protection, you know, like an extra shield, like
Speaker 2: they're playing a video game. Oh, I'm immune because i'm press. No,
Speaker 2: you're not press if you start participating in the disruption.
Speaker 2: But when you are a legitimate objective press person, there's
Speaker 2: no way in hell. And by the way, it breaks
Speaker 2: either way all the time. We're quite frankly, there's a
Speaker 2: lot of un happy results. There are some people that
Speaker 2: walk away that do not deserve to walk away. But
Speaker 2: there's also a lot of guys who have gone to
Speaker 2: jail for doing nothing but an honest job of reporting.
Speaker 2: And ye, both of these things are unacceptable in my mind.
Speaker 2: But I want to hear more about this Baker thing,
Speaker 2: because so far, what you're describing is an independent journalist
Speaker 2: who needs to be it.
Speaker 5: Yeah anyway, Yeah, we'll keep track of it, because this
Speaker 5: thing is getting ready to fall apart.
Speaker 3: But yeah, let's get to Danny.
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's get to Danny. For now, and anybody else
Speaker 2: who wants to call in three one nine five two
Speaker 2: seven five zero one six. Uh, you know. And I'm
Speaker 2: not a fan of Julian Nsanji either, but maybe that's
Speaker 2: a debate for another day. Anyhow, Danny, how are you there?
Speaker 4: Yes, I'm doing fine.
Speaker 12: Hey, I'm I was well. I was sitting on the
Speaker 12: holder as you were chat and I was looking at
Speaker 12: the Steve Baker. Is he the same Steve Baker that
Speaker 12: kept going on Joe Rogan as Z and that's cia
Speaker 12: guy now when I used to listen to Joe Rogan
Speaker 12: years ago.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no different guy. This guy is based
Speaker 3: out of Raleigh, nor Journal.
Speaker 4: I was just wanting because I was looking up.
Speaker 12: Here, just kind of get up to speak because it
Speaker 12: was kind of interesting. And I see that, Yeah, he
Speaker 12: was arrested. He was the FBI was after him. He
Speaker 12: was arrested. They I don't know if they arrested.
Speaker 4: But he did come in and.
Speaker 12: I guess he pleaded guilty to some misdemeanor charges or
Speaker 12: something with January sixth.
Speaker 4: So yeah, I don't follow the blaze. I was just
Speaker 4: it was kind of I was just kind.
Speaker 3: Of interested by what you were talking about this story.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but see now, Danny, it's fascinating to me because
Speaker 2: you know, the government is not it has not been,
Speaker 2: no matter who's allegedly in charge, has not been immune
Speaker 2: to the idea of crushing and and and suppressing journalists,
Speaker 2: despite the fact that again it's in the First Amendment,
Speaker 2: it should be protected. The press and its freedom needs
Speaker 2: to be protected because otherwise we stand no chance of
Speaker 2: ever getting informed about anything. So I'm one of these
Speaker 2: people who feels extremely strong about that. But when that's misused,
Speaker 2: it is really bad in my mind, and one of
Speaker 2: those things that needs to be spotlighted and pointed out.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 2: I'm not judging Baker either way here because as I've stated,
Speaker 2: I don't know the full facts. But you know, I'm
Speaker 2: hoping this isn't a guy that we got to watch
Speaker 2: again get crushed by the system that you know is
Speaker 2: not comfortable with what he might share. I hope that's
Speaker 2: not the case, is all I'm saying. But we're gonna
Speaker 2: have Yeah, Well, but that's what they do the system,
Speaker 2: you know, at all times, it doesn't matter. You know,
Speaker 2: I know everybody hates this, but you know, Republicans, Democrat,
Speaker 2: you know, you want to be part of the whigs
Speaker 2: of the Tories. It's really irrelevant. The system will protect
Speaker 2: itself always above your freedoms and your interests. So that
Speaker 2: is one of those mantras. I'm not gonna you know, look,
Speaker 2: show me a different world and I'll say something different.
Speaker 2: But otherwise that's how I feel about it. Anyway. Sorry
Speaker 2: about my my gruff voice. But Danny, was this what
Speaker 2: was on your mind? The Baker thing or did you
Speaker 2: have something else that you wanted to go into. Well, no, I.
Speaker 4: Something else you were talking.
Speaker 3: I heard you earlier.
Speaker 12: I was getting getting dinner for my wife and I
Speaker 12: and I was kind of listening a little bit on
Speaker 12: the stream when you were talking about baseball. If you
Speaker 12: have Peacock, I've been watching on that when I have
Speaker 12: some times Sunday, the Sunday.
Speaker 4: Night baseball on Peacock. I don't know if you have
Speaker 4: that or caught any of those games.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I meant to say that, actually, be Pete, I
Speaker 2: don't know if you know that, but Sundays there's always
Speaker 2: a couple of options on Peacock, which I think you
Speaker 2: can get with the free version, but we might have
Speaker 2: an upgrade of some kind because of we don't have
Speaker 2: the full Baseball package or whatever, but we have like
Speaker 2: some kind of upgrade where we have a few channels
Speaker 2: because of our Walmart membership or something.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 2: That's the other weird thing is if you interlock your
Speaker 2: memberships properly, okay, and you buy a couple of memberships,
Speaker 2: you'll get the bonus other thing, you know, like you
Speaker 2: could get an expanded Peacock membership, or or you could
Speaker 2: get Amazon Prime at a discount because you're subscribed to
Speaker 2: some so you got to watch because sometimes there's a
Speaker 2: little benefit, Like Instacart is another thing that has a
Speaker 2: benefit because we spent a lot of time no car,
Speaker 2: so we wound up you know, Instacart, Walmart delivery. So
Speaker 2: you sign up for those things, but check your extra
Speaker 2: benefits because you know, sometimes it's Burger King coupons, which oh,
Speaker 2: I need to ask you about that before we close
Speaker 2: out the show. Be Pete, remind me to ask you
Speaker 2: about fast food before we're done, because I need an
Speaker 2: observation and I know you will at least notice. But
Speaker 2: outside of that, yeah, sometimes, like if you have a
Speaker 2: membership with something, it comes along with other benefits, so
Speaker 2: I think it's Instacart might be the Peacock thing if
Speaker 2: I'm not misspeaking, and like Walmart has another TV thing,
Speaker 2: like maybe it's Hulu or something. Either way, we have
Speaker 2: these connections where we don't have the top grade of anything. No, no, no,
Speaker 2: it's paramount. We get through Walmart. We get paramount through Walmart.
Speaker 2: You know, the Chief subscription for free, And on Instacart
Speaker 2: you can get a peacock subscription that's a little better
Speaker 2: than the free thing that they let everybody sign up for,
Speaker 2: so you know, it doesn't buy me a baseball package,
Speaker 2: but little things you could do to get other events.
Speaker 2: I mean, if you're a wrestling person or you want
Speaker 2: to keep track of other things. There's exclusive shows on
Speaker 2: some platforms, and nobody can afford all this crap, so
Speaker 2: you know, just saying I mean, I've been blessed with
Speaker 2: a shared Netflix account with somebody for like two years,
Speaker 2: which I'm so thankful for, and they don't charge me anything.
Speaker 2: They just let me have access so I can watch
Speaker 2: a little Netflix. But I mean, you can't possibly subscribe
Speaker 2: to like all the TV anymore. It's impossible, or all
Speaker 2: the interests or shows or if you want to watch
Speaker 2: you know, Bill Maher's Real Time or whatever the hell.
Speaker 2: You're not going to be able to keep track of
Speaker 2: all of it all the time, no matter what exclusive
Speaker 2: movies come out, et cetera, et cetera. But there are
Speaker 2: always to interlock these things to get you know, a
Speaker 2: couple of things for free. And I say, if you
Speaker 2: can figure out a way, you know you're already paid
Speaker 2: for something, you know, you can get better than Burger
Speaker 2: King coupons from Walmart is all I'm saying. And they
Speaker 2: offer those two some sort of Burger King discount. I
Speaker 2: haven't used it. I don't know how it works, but
Speaker 2: apparently you get a discount on Burger King if you
Speaker 2: have a Walmart subscription which allows for like delivery and
Speaker 2: pickup orders for cheap or free or whatever. So AnyWho,
Speaker 2: enough of that. But yeah, no, you're right about the Peacock. Though.
Speaker 2: They have Sunday Night Baseball, I think for everybody. Uh
Speaker 2: it's like open everybody, I think, So, yeah, that's a
Speaker 2: good one. Do they still broadcast it though? Do you
Speaker 2: know do you have like open air broadcast?
Speaker 5: Uh?
Speaker 2: In California?
Speaker 12: They you know, I haven't, you know, everything's changed from
Speaker 12: your local channels.
Speaker 4: They used to it.
Speaker 12: Like like here in Northern Caliber we have if I
Speaker 12: got like the direct TV, which I don't have, they
Speaker 12: had like a day are a sports package and so
Speaker 12: you could catch a lot of the day are games
Speaker 12: days and Giants. I haven't had enough time to export,
Speaker 12: but I have noticed as I was kind of playing
Speaker 12: around with my smart TV there's a lot of side
Speaker 12: channels there. I haven't looked for any like sports channels.
Speaker 12: I'm I'm you know now you now you kind of
Speaker 12: picked my curiosity to do a search because I know
Speaker 12: the A's are now Sacramento, they're playing in the minor
Speaker 12: league ballpark, and the Giants. I know that there's there's
Speaker 12: a package. I know a lot of cable you can get.
Speaker 12: It usually comes with your direct TV package. For example,
Speaker 12: well see nere Exfinity where you can get the ball games.
Speaker 2: Yeah, now here again where you got Exfinity and uh
Speaker 2: you know, direct direct TV is probably the most expensive
Speaker 2: raping you're going to take when it comes to uh,
Speaker 2: you know, television and getting it right. However, what I'm
Speaker 2: talking about is and it's fascinating because I've got to
Speaker 2: go get one of these digital antennas. You live in
Speaker 2: such a media overlap like state right that there's plenty.
Speaker 2: There's plenty of digital signals bouncing around that. I think
Speaker 2: if you went and spent like thirty bucks, either you know,
Speaker 2: you get it from Amazon or you go to Walmart
Speaker 2: and get one. I think if you spent thirty bucks,
Speaker 2: you'd probably have like one hundred channels available to you
Speaker 2: for open air.
Speaker 4: Far more, far more. It's like there must be a
Speaker 4: couple of hundred channels on the smart TV that you
Speaker 4: can find.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no programs, but forget the smart TV and using
Speaker 2: the internet.
Speaker 4: I don't have to pay for Yeah, hang.
Speaker 2: On a second, forget the smart TV and using the
Speaker 2: internet and possibly using your band with BPTE. You were
Speaker 2: just trying to say about the digital antenna. You think
Speaker 2: it was cheaper than thirty Go ahead.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've got a.
Speaker 5: Ten dollars antenna on the TV in the bedroom and
Speaker 5: I pick up probably thirty stations.
Speaker 3: Just where I live.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: You know, where I live is really in the middle
Speaker 3: of nowhere.
Speaker 5: I'm between you know, two decent sized towns of about
Speaker 5: forty to seventy thousand people. But I'm in the middle
Speaker 5: of nowhere and I can pick up over thirty channels
Speaker 5: with just my little ten dollars antenna. Yeah, imagine what
Speaker 5: he's going to pick up out there where he's at.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying, is like, listen, no offense, meet Pete.
Speaker 2: But I lived kind of near you before, and there
Speaker 2: is crap there for broadcast. I mean, you got two
Speaker 2: like semi like you know, medium sized cities that have
Speaker 2: some broadcast outlets. You know, your network, ABC, NBC, ABC, Fox,
Speaker 2: et cetera. And half the time you're you're in such
Speaker 2: a bad spot there, like in where he is that
Speaker 2: I'm not surprised that he's saying he's got thirty channels.
Speaker 2: You where you are in California, the potential depending on
Speaker 2: where you are, I mean Los Angeles and the Bay
Speaker 2: Area are two major, uh, you know, outlets for media.
Speaker 2: But also depending on where you are in the state,
Speaker 2: you know, north or south to begin with, you could
Speaker 2: be looking at the Sacramento channels as well. Uh And
Speaker 2: who knows, depending on you know, the strength of things,
Speaker 2: uh and and how close you are to the coast,
Speaker 2: you might be able to pick up anywhere from San
Speaker 2: Diego to Sacramento, which is a hell of a lot
Speaker 2: of channels. Like I would not be surprised if you
Speaker 2: had two hundred free channels where you don't have to
Speaker 2: use the Internet nothing, just as long as you have
Speaker 2: power for your TV and that antenna, that digital antenna.
Speaker 2: I mean literally, you might be passing up on two
Speaker 2: hundred free channels right there, no use of the Internet
Speaker 2: or a device or you know, an app. Yeah, you
Speaker 2: were saying BP, I.
Speaker 5: Just added up while you were talking. I just flicked
Speaker 5: through my channels on the TV in my living room.
Speaker 5: I've got thirty six channels. The TV in the bedroom,
Speaker 5: I've got probably eight to ten more on top of that.
Speaker 5: And that's you know, so it's one good antenna versus
Speaker 5: a cheap antenna. I'm picking up a little bit more.
Speaker 5: But like you said, the TV stations around here are
Speaker 5: thirty miles away from me in any direction. Right, I'm
Speaker 5: still picking up thirty six channel was off this cheap antenna,
Speaker 5: so right, and you.
Speaker 2: Might be getting Raleigh, you might be getting I mean,
Speaker 2: there's there's also stuff that there's a couple of Kinston channels.
Speaker 2: I think there's still like two Kinston channels. One of
Speaker 2: them might be one of those ones go out.
Speaker 5: Oh they're gone now they've gone out what what like,
Speaker 5: Like our NBC channel is in used to be in
Speaker 5: Little Washington, it's now in Greenville.
Speaker 3: They've relocated there.
Speaker 5: Okay, seven channels, you know, They've got the NBC channel,
Speaker 5: then they've got let's see Oxygen Crime channel. Then they've
Speaker 5: got let me get to it here, the three sixty
Speaker 5: five Heroes, TV, Star, TV w I, TN, ME TV,
Speaker 5: and my TV all on that channel seven Dash one
Speaker 5: through seven. So each broadcast station has got a minimum
Speaker 5: of four channels with it. So right, and I've got
Speaker 5: everything from and keen a TV to rewind to the
Speaker 5: cw I on TV Comet, Yeah, Chorge, tcn CE network.
Speaker 3: There's a big selection out there right now.
Speaker 2: Where he is in California, I'm thinking you probably have
Speaker 2: access no matter where you are in that state, unless
Speaker 2: you're in the extreme north or south of the state,
Speaker 2: you probably have access to at least ten of those
Speaker 2: Like you know, they're playing the nineteen sixties Batman and
Speaker 2: they have a block of Star Trek for your sixties,
Speaker 2: you know, and then they played the Munsters and they
Speaker 2: might actually still play Saturday morning cartoons. You probably got
Speaker 2: about ten of those stations that play nothing. But you know,
Speaker 2: the stuff that they hardly have to pay for any
Speaker 2: more for syndication. And then you would have easily a
Speaker 2: group of three of every kind of network which would
Speaker 2: give you professional teams. Wise, probably a lot of the
Speaker 2: local broadcast for if you wanted to watch baseball, right,
Speaker 2: you could have a choice anywhere from let's think about this,
Speaker 2: the San Diego Padres, uh, the Oakland A's, the San
Speaker 2: Francisco Giants, the LA Dodgers, the Los Angeles Angels, I
Speaker 2: guess they call them now, right.
Speaker 12: Uh, that's the Angels, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, Yes.
Speaker 2: Of Anaheim, Okay, but I think they weren't. They called
Speaker 2: them the La Angels though, or no, am I mistaken?
Speaker 4: Yeah, they kind of.
Speaker 12: Anaheim's basically a suburb of LA. They're just going to
Speaker 12: go with LA logo.
Speaker 2: Fair enough. But I mean that's five teams right there,
Speaker 2: you know, it is all I'm saying, uh, you know,
Speaker 2: and then for every other. But the point is that
Speaker 2: easily you should have a chance of three sets of NBC, ABC, CBS, uh,
Speaker 2: probably UPN of some kind, and if not UPN, you
Speaker 2: have the WB and those are your just like live
Speaker 2: locals U plus I mean there used to be independent
Speaker 2: channels depending on where you are, you know, in places
Speaker 2: like and Sacramento had a full set of channels if
Speaker 2: I remember correctly.
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh yeah, sacrament has has has.
Speaker 12: All your major you know, agency, NBC, CBS, box.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they've got all their major channels.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And I mean in the old days, right, you know,
Speaker 2: when we had dials on the TVs and all that,
Speaker 2: and everybody said, oh, you only got you know, channel
Speaker 2: one through thirteen or whatever two through thirteen in California,
Speaker 2: you could get good use out of the UHF because
Speaker 2: they had the channel sixty eight and seventy nine's and
Speaker 2: whatever else, you know, way above in the UHF band.
Speaker 2: Well now there's you know, UHF is something else, I think,
Speaker 2: But they still have they call that was.
Speaker 4: That when they went digital, they got rid of that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but they transferred out they did. That's changed, they
Speaker 2: transferred it to something else. It's like now it's you know,
Speaker 2: digital eight hundred and eighty or whatever the hell.
Speaker 3: But they still have a segonal bounce of communications.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: But that's the funny thing though.
Speaker 5: This is the first time in my life that I've
Speaker 5: lived somewhere that you can actually pick up QVC and
Speaker 5: the Home Shopping.
Speaker 3: Network on broadcast. Mostly it was only on cable.
Speaker 2: See now here's the funny thing. Everybody thought that, But
Speaker 2: the truth is in some areas of the country a
Speaker 2: lot of things were open air. Nickelodeon was an open
Speaker 2: air channel in Florida, for instance, Like you could literally
Speaker 2: just tune it in with the old Rabbit Ears and
Speaker 2: get Nickelodeon. Everybody thought that only came on cable. For
Speaker 2: a while, Cartoon Network was available in California. I know
Speaker 2: that that's like twenty years ago, but there are some
Speaker 2: of these channels that people think of as only cable
Speaker 2: that are actually open air. They're not everywhere, but depending
Speaker 2: on there's some sort of agreement there TFCC where it's
Speaker 2: like in order to like, I think it becomes a
Speaker 2: different element when you literally have it available as a
Speaker 2: broadcast thing in the open air and then it goes
Speaker 2: to cable. It's a slightly different agreement than just creating
Speaker 2: something that's only available on satellite only available on cable,
Speaker 2: because that's the thing. Cable is basically just a giant
Speaker 2: satellite dish somewhere else that you get fed to you.
Speaker 2: So things that are only available through through satellite signals
Speaker 2: are one thing. If the channels available on the open air,
Speaker 2: it becomes a different animal altogether. And I don't know
Speaker 2: if it's more profitable whatever. The point is. Some people
Speaker 2: have these, like, you know, token broadcast areas for stuff.
Speaker 2: I mean, you're not gonna get HBO. But USA Network
Speaker 2: is another one that has broadcasts in different parts of
Speaker 2: the country where you could pick it up on a
Speaker 2: digital antenna, you know. So my point is, Danny, Uh,
Speaker 2: you could be sitting there pay none of these streamers,
Speaker 2: use none of the apps, and you know, get your
Speaker 2: local news, get your local sports, uh, in a lot
Speaker 2: of different ways, plus different news channels.
Speaker 13: Uh.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 2: Even Fox News I think is still available as a
Speaker 2: broadcast entity in like parts of the northern part of
Speaker 2: the country. Anyways.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we have a local Fox channel, but it's it's local.
Speaker 5: It's a broadcast station, not Fox Network.
Speaker 2: Yeah I misspoked, I meant Fox News. But yeah, no,
Speaker 2: Fox networks are available as broadcast entities all over the place,
Speaker 2: but they're local. Like you know, you'll have uh, you
Speaker 2: know whatever the hell that's how yeah call letters whatever?
Speaker 2: Uh you know, is Fox in Raleigh or Fox in Greenville,
Speaker 2: and they might indeed have your you know, Simpsons and
Speaker 2: Family Guy at the regular broadcast time.
Speaker 12: Uh.
Speaker 2: But no, I'm talking about like Fox New Use and
Speaker 2: Fox Business and stuff like that. In some parts of
Speaker 2: the country, you just need antenna and you can get them,
Speaker 2: not everywhere.
Speaker 4: I can get those through TV.
Speaker 5: I've got a streaming box from my internet provider, which
Speaker 5: I can watch YouTube, I can watch Amazon Prime, you
Speaker 5: know these things that you can stream. And on TV
Speaker 5: you can get Fox News channels, but they're not the
Speaker 5: Fox News channel. They're knockoff there, you know, where you've
Speaker 5: got the the three month intern that's just been an announcer.
Speaker 5: They never carry the headline crap. That's the only thing
Speaker 5: I hate about it. You know, don't call it Fox
Speaker 5: News if it ain't Fox News.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and some people just have Roku. They either have
Speaker 2: the box or they have the TV which is all
Speaker 2: set up for Roku and they just use that. Yeah.
Speaker 5: A friend of mine's got one of the little Roku
Speaker 5: sticks that uses their Internet to get their signal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like the old fire stick. I don't even
Speaker 2: know if they make the fire sticks anymore, do they? Yes?
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, they do.
Speaker 5: Okay, that's what they have was two fire sticks, one
Speaker 5: on the TV and a living room and one in
Speaker 5: their bedroom.
Speaker 2: Okay, I you know, a long time ago, I had
Speaker 2: one of those fire tablets. I was really happy with
Speaker 2: the fire tablet actually, but somebody stole that on me.
Speaker 2: I think at some point somebody just lifted it had
Speaker 2: disappeared and I never figured out where.
Speaker 4: It went.
Speaker 2: AnyWho, because I didn't have a finder device on my
Speaker 2: original you know, like one of the very early fire
Speaker 2: tablets somebody bought for me. Anyways, Danny, is there anything
Speaker 2: else you want to add because we actually got another caller.
Speaker 4: Oh, let the other caller.
Speaker 12: I'm just saying, I've got to do some more exploring
Speaker 12: with just the all the free channels on the smart TV,
Speaker 12: and you know it also comes up the TV and
Speaker 12: all kinds of free movie channels.
Speaker 4: And my son, he's a program manager.
Speaker 12: I'm going to give a shout out for Commercial World
Speaker 12: World TV. It's a free app for your smart TV.
Speaker 12: He's the program manager for that. So no, he was
Speaker 12: explaining to me one time with three channel.
Speaker 2: So thanks the shout out. So yeah, yeah, do me
Speaker 2: a favorite Daddy, email me a link to what you
Speaker 2: just said. Because I won't remember it. And I am
Speaker 2: all for looking up and utilizing anything for free as
Speaker 2: opposed to paying all these bastards, Yeah, because they are
Speaker 2: just yeah, yeah, I mean I'm sick of it. They're
Speaker 2: trying to hold our feet to the fire for every
Speaker 2: kind of signal you know possible. Even radio signals at
Speaker 2: this point have now devolved into you know, get a
Speaker 2: subscription from somewhere otherwise you can't listen to it. And
Speaker 2: I find that really annoying, uh because you know, look,
Speaker 2: I I have lived off of broadcast radio, and here
Speaker 2: in Georgia, you know, the only thing left on the
Speaker 2: broadcast radio is you know, your one standard rock station
Speaker 2: that's in any market, and uh, you know, a couple
Speaker 2: of country kick around stations, and then the rest of
Speaker 2: it's like religious broadcasting AM and FM just across the dial,
Speaker 2: and that's all you get unless you have a subscription
Speaker 2: to something, you know, where you get serious XM. And
Speaker 2: I'm annoyed to death, even though I have access to
Speaker 2: some serious XM right now, because somehow or other, they
Speaker 2: gave it to Kim with a smartphone that because she
Speaker 2: had to replace her phone and there was no way
Speaker 2: to help we were going to be able to buy
Speaker 2: her another freaking iPhone, so she went and got you know,
Speaker 2: some sort of Android and they were just like, hey,
Speaker 2: along with your Android purchase, here's six months of serious
Speaker 2: XM for free if you want to activate it. So
Speaker 2: we did, and I'm listening to some baseball on there.
Speaker 2: I'm happy, but I haven't able to watch much. And
Speaker 2: he who's just hang on a minute, and if you
Speaker 2: want to, I'll bring you back on a little bit.
Speaker 2: But it looks like we got You're welcome and you
Speaker 2: and I'll talk maybe this weekend. If I don't, you know,
Speaker 2: get completely scrambled, and if not, definitely email me that
Speaker 2: thing that your son is part of, not just because
Speaker 2: he's part of it, but I love to hear about
Speaker 2: new options where I'm not paying these bricks any more
Speaker 2: money at all, because hey, I can't afford it. And
Speaker 2: b why is it we should pay for every single
Speaker 2: show we want to watch? I mean, why don't we
Speaker 2: just buy every DVD as it comes out? Again, you know,
Speaker 2: let's just do that instead, probably save us money and
Speaker 2: you get to keep the DVD. AnyWho, it looks like
Speaker 2: we got Jimmy James on the line. So I just
Speaker 2: want to give the floor right on over to him
Speaker 2: and let him talk about what he wants to talk about.
Speaker 13: It was good show so far.
Speaker 4: Yep. I don't know.
Speaker 13: I went buy stock for those serious people because I
Speaker 13: bought a truck and it comes with that. I'll pay,
Speaker 13: not afford. It just keeps working cool. I trust those
Speaker 13: subscription number. I wouldn't trust some subscription numbers, folks. Yeah,
Speaker 13: I have a gas recommendation that you might Well, this
Speaker 13: is fascinating. There's this guy put out this podcast series
Speaker 13: five years ago. He spent about ten years looking into it,
Speaker 13: and it was all about the plane crash of Hail
Speaker 13: Bogs and that congressman Basic Basic Bagig. I can't say
Speaker 13: this guy's name Begig.
Speaker 2: Huh okay, Yeah, so you're talking about Hail Bogs, right,
Speaker 2: and the uh the you know, Warren Commissioner Hailbogs, who
Speaker 2: was also the father of h who is it the
Speaker 2: broadcast lady, it's not company.
Speaker 3: Cooky Coke, Robbie Roberts.
Speaker 2: That's it, Cokie Roberts. That that was her dad. But
Speaker 2: he also happened to be a Warren commissioner. And there's
Speaker 2: been weird stuff about this plane crash that he you know,
Speaker 2: you know, the plane went down and then he disappeared allegedly.
Speaker 2: But there have been like lots of claims over the
Speaker 2: years about different things, including foul play. And this guy
Speaker 2: did a podcast like five years ago and just did
Speaker 2: multiple episodes digging into it. Is that what you're saying.
Speaker 13: Yes, he did a series on it and that was
Speaker 13: after I mean, he did.
Speaker 3: Ten years of research on it, and he has a
Speaker 3: witness and he has theories.
Speaker 13: Basically, he says that someone put a bomb on the plane.
Speaker 13: But boy, would he be interesting to talk to. And
Speaker 13: I just keep feeling all these names he keeps naming.
Speaker 3: It's like, man, you're like one two.
Speaker 13: Steps away from the stuff I look at too.
Speaker 4: This is so weird.
Speaker 5: Jimmy, Jimmy, didn't I saw a story or something. Didn't
Speaker 5: they find the aircraft? Remember back it was about a
Speaker 5: month ago. I think I heard something where they think
Speaker 5: they found they found the sessta.
Speaker 13: If they did, it's you know, it's one of the
Speaker 13: things were like Amelia Air hired. Every once in a
Speaker 13: while you see one of the miracles, sap. You have
Speaker 13: to see one pan.
Speaker 2: Out well years ago, Jimmy, Right, like longer ago than
Speaker 2: you're saying this guy put out the podcast. Honestly, there
Speaker 2: was a witness, and I'm wondering if it's the same
Speaker 2: witness that this guy ends up with, because there was
Speaker 2: a guy going around trying to tell anybody would listen
Speaker 2: that there was this fly over of the area where
Speaker 2: they thought he went down, right and and during this
Speaker 2: flyover they did literally put their eyeballs on the plane,
Speaker 2: and somebody claims to have seen just about well enough
Speaker 2: that it looks like somebody was alive near the wreck.
Speaker 2: And they were saying that they thought it was hal
Speaker 2: Bogs and they had flown over and nobody went back
Speaker 2: to get him. Like this was part of the great
Speaker 2: cover up story, is that they knew he went down
Speaker 2: and they just led him there to rot wherever the
Speaker 2: hell the plane went down. Now, I didn't get into
Speaker 2: all the details, but I do recall that this was
Speaker 2: maybe seven eight years ago. There was a guy going
Speaker 2: around trying to get anybody listen to him that he
Speaker 2: had been part of somebody was hired to go find
Speaker 2: the plane, and then when they did, you know, find it,
Speaker 2: fly over it and had a place to go go search.
Speaker 2: This is where he is he's still alive, you know,
Speaker 2: obviously very much a short time after the plane went down. Uh,
Speaker 2: then the guy says, basically, you know, the whole group
Speaker 2: that he was involved with was let go and nobody
Speaker 2: followed up on it. Is that the same witness this.
Speaker 5: Guy has or no, no, not even close.
Speaker 13: But he does cover that story. I mean, he does
Speaker 13: a great, all inclusive examination. He's clearly got his by
Speaker 13: the end of it. He clearly feels that the guy
Speaker 13: that is a guy to end up dying in prison.
Speaker 13: But he was he confassed numerous times. And this guy's
Speaker 13: commits that he's telling the truth.
Speaker 3: It's just so, yeah, there's something going on there.
Speaker 5: Well, you know, there was a I just did a
Speaker 5: good I just hit an AI search. They've not found
Speaker 5: the plane as of yet.
Speaker 2: No, this was one witness. You know, it's sort of
Speaker 2: like the dag Hammer show whole thing, where you know,
Speaker 2: the guy was.
Speaker 4: That's trouble.
Speaker 13: He covered it.
Speaker 2: A guy.
Speaker 14: One guy claimed that he did see a survivor. But
Speaker 14: then a big storm was supposedly coming in and they
Speaker 14: did have like the biggest search in history.
Speaker 13: For these people, but they called it off supposedly due
Speaker 13: to a big storm.
Speaker 3: And this guy's like, what the craft I actually found him?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the guy I'm talking about. Yeah, yeah, it's good.
Speaker 5: They said the search was thirty nine days and at
Speaker 5: the time it was the longest search.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 13: Well, look, I don't know, there's no way that guy's alive.
Speaker 13: Oh that's because the initial like initially when they might have.
Speaker 3: Been alive, they had a call off to this big storm.
Speaker 2: Yeah. That was the thing I remember that about that
Speaker 2: story since you said it, is that the storm came
Speaker 2: in and this guy was saying, look, as soon as
Speaker 2: the storm passes, we need to go in. Even if
Speaker 2: we can't fly in there, we know where he is.
Speaker 2: And like I said, nobody, you know, it's not apparently
Speaker 2: taken seriously among the people that should be taking it seriously.
Speaker 2: But like I was saying, you know about the Dag Hammershaw.
Speaker 13: Yeah, I know about that.
Speaker 4: But yeah, the guy.
Speaker 13: The big thing, the big thing this guy.
Speaker 4: Covers is there is a guy that was an associate and.
Speaker 13: Get this, he married the widow of the congressman a
Speaker 13: year later. Furthermore, this guy's with this.
Speaker 4: Says that he seemed.
Speaker 13: Joe Banana, I'm meeting with the chick that was married
Speaker 13: to the congressman way before that crash.
Speaker 3: So that's this guy's story.
Speaker 2: Right well, you know that's the thing, and it's still,
Speaker 2: to my knowledge, it's still kind of considered mostly unsolved,
Speaker 2: like he's presumed dead. But I don't think they ever
Speaker 2: like found a body or anything.
Speaker 13: Right now, it's just it. Now, it's a fact that
Speaker 13: this commerceman.
Speaker 2: That's is so bizarre.
Speaker 13: This guy's widow married a mobster like twelve months, thirteen months,
Speaker 13: fourteen months.
Speaker 4: After the guy died.
Speaker 2: And this is the guy that did the confessing of prison.
Speaker 4: He is in for life. He didn't care.
Speaker 13: He went through and he honestly told everything he did.
Speaker 4: They even threw on another murder charge for him.
Speaker 13: There's trouble or something else.
Speaker 3: DP Any thoughts, No, that that's one of the big mysteries.
Speaker 3: I haven't really looked in too much.
Speaker 5: I figured, you know, if you're flying through Alaska and
Speaker 5: that kind of weather and your plane goes down with
Speaker 5: kind of brought it on yourself.
Speaker 2: I guess that's one way to look at.
Speaker 3: Well.
Speaker 5: I mean, you know that's the worst place. The weather
Speaker 5: in Alaska can change in the snap of a finger.
Speaker 13: So you know, well, this guy there probably was Don
Speaker 13: John's Who's I guess he had like twenty thousand hours
Speaker 13: of flight experience. The man knew what he was doing.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 3: It's just interesting and the guy's interesting and he.
Speaker 4: Did do his study and I found.
Speaker 13: Don't I just he needs to be someone's got an
Speaker 13: interview him.
Speaker 2: Well, send me a la uh frustration. Yeah, send me
Speaker 2: a link. I'll see if I can make contact. I
Speaker 2: want to listen to the material first, obviously, you know,
Speaker 2: familiarize myself a bit because I'm you know, clearly not
Speaker 2: super familiar with this. But yeah, email me the link please.
Speaker 13: M Yeah, that's pretty interesting. These guys were had a
Speaker 13: lot going on at the time in Tucson and then Alaska.
Speaker 13: They are going back for.
Speaker 2: Well, there was a lot of business in Alaska that
Speaker 2: you know, there was a lot of money to be
Speaker 2: made there for for a couple of decades, where you know,
Speaker 2: people were willing to go through the trouble to fly
Speaker 2: in and out of there and everything for different reasons.
Speaker 2: I mean, Alaska is a fascinating part of this country
Speaker 2: to say the least. But even guys that I've known
Speaker 2: who like went up there to work on the pipeline
Speaker 2: and stuff like that. I mean, not one of them
Speaker 2: has like normal stories. They always have crazy stories that
Speaker 2: go along with it, you know what I mean, b Pete,
Speaker 2: You ever encountered anybody who worked on the pipeline?
Speaker 12: Uh?
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 5: I talked to a couple of guys that were working
Speaker 5: all some other projects up there, and they said it
Speaker 5: was the only place they'd ever been to where you
Speaker 5: leave your truck on in twenty four to seven.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just you know, you don't want to shut
Speaker 3: it off. Yeah, I got told might not get it
Speaker 3: started again.
Speaker 2: Well there's that. Plus I got told it's like, you know,
Speaker 2: the most like forsaken place possible, Like you know, the
Speaker 2: the concept of being in the middle of nowhere. You
Speaker 2: get to experience it for real if you go to
Speaker 2: certain parts of Alaska where it's like there is no
Speaker 2: civilization whatsoever.
Speaker 3: Oh absolutely, you know.
Speaker 2: So these guys in these camps that worked on some
Speaker 2: of this stuff, they would have supplies dropped off once
Speaker 2: a week from somewhere once a month, depending and pretty
Speaker 2: much all they saw was each other, you know, for
Speaker 2: the long stretches, and you know, it's kind of a
Speaker 2: fascinating thing to do where you got to get you know.
Speaker 2: It also reminds me of the guys who went in
Speaker 2: after Desert storm, desert shield whatever and went over there
Speaker 2: to rebuild stuff. Private contract. I got offered to go,
Speaker 2: and they were paying exorbitant rates for anybody who was
Speaker 2: willing to go over there and do work. And you know,
Speaker 2: but there was a whole bunch of rules, like you're
Speaker 2: gonna live in a fenced in compound. You can't you know,
Speaker 2: go out and mix with any of the people or
Speaker 2: go shopping or nothing. You know, like you're only going
Speaker 2: to see your coworkers for a year kind of deal.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 2: So it's it's one of those things. I know, they're
Speaker 2: totally dissimilar situations, but the kind of isolation to go
Speaker 2: to work is the thing that I have in common
Speaker 2: in my mind with these two things. Jimmy, you ever
Speaker 2: know anybody who worked on the pipeline or anything?
Speaker 3: Quick break chuck, Oh what time?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Am I missing time? Oh? BP's reminding me to
Speaker 2: keep an eye on the time so I can get
Speaker 2: to Aaron quickly. Uh, you know, and on time this time,
Speaker 2: because it's about four minutes of so you know what Jimmy,
Speaker 2: you bring up interesting stuff, email that to me. But
Speaker 2: i'd like to get your final word for the week
Speaker 2: because we're down to the last couple of minutes here.
Speaker 2: Thanks for keeping an eye on the clock. Bp't appreciate it.
Speaker 13: Well, I'll let Dan and go first. Snipe to Thick
Speaker 13: for a second.
Speaker 2: Okay, gotcha. Well, I won't want to be rude, no problem.
Speaker 13: You know, I got to think of a good ball out.
Speaker 2: Of course, of course, but I thought you had one
Speaker 2: in the chamber. So I'll put you on hold and
Speaker 2: we'll go to Danny and get his final word for
Speaker 2: the week, and then we'll come back to Jimmy. James, Danny,
Speaker 2: what's your final thought? Time ran right away on us.
Speaker 2: Go ahead.
Speaker 12: Oh yeah, I've known three people that recall off the
Speaker 12: top of my head that's worked Alaska. One was fishing,
Speaker 12: one was mining, and one was actually a contractor. He
Speaker 12: built roads make a hell of a lot of money.
Speaker 12: But also to be aware, per capita, Alaska has the
Speaker 12: highest crime rate, and it's probably because it's wild, wild wilderness.
Speaker 4: Just every take care. I'll look at that information on
Speaker 4: some free TV.
Speaker 12: I'll check with my son and see if I can
Speaker 12: get you information, just take care of everybody, have a
Speaker 12: good one.
Speaker 2: Appreciate that, Danny, and appreciate you in general, man, you know,
Speaker 2: appreciate your support and calling in and all that. And yeah,
Speaker 2: take advantage of it. You're in a good media mark,
Speaker 2: so I think you have access to probably more than
Speaker 2: almost anybody listening has access to free right there in
Speaker 2: the air. Why not grab it? And especially you're not
Speaker 2: gonna use your bandwidth. You don't got to rely on
Speaker 2: the internet. You can just get free stuff, information, sports, whatever.
Speaker 2: I see no reason not to take advantage of it's there,
Speaker 2: you know, maybe it's just me. Anyways, Jimmy James, now
Speaker 2: we're back to you, and what is your punch out
Speaker 2: for the week. What's your deal? You know, I just
Speaker 2: can't come.
Speaker 13: Up with any thing, Cliff, I'm just gonna have to
Speaker 13: say a good show and good hear any guys, have
Speaker 13: good weekend.
Speaker 4: Everyone piece.
Speaker 1: There you go.
Speaker 2: Jimmy James usually ends with peace, which I appreciate, and
Speaker 2: you know, sorry for the gruff some of my voice
Speaker 2: and all. But again I'm hoping that I'll be doing
Speaker 2: a thank you show to everybody who is supporting me
Speaker 2: here at Crutch time because I got some bills that
Speaker 2: are gonna crunch me. So this is the weekend to
Speaker 2: get it done, and I'm gonna push out this podcast
Speaker 2: as fast as possible because things are time sensitive. I
Speaker 2: paid most of the little bills, obviously, I paid the
Speaker 2: phone bill, streamer bill and all that, but this is
Speaker 2: the big yearly bills that I have only about half tackled.
Speaker 2: Plus I need a computer with Windows eleven that's capable
Speaker 2: of handling that to expand into video. And then you'll
Speaker 2: have to look at my terrible face and you'll get
Speaker 2: a good look at Bpete maybe on camera. Maybe I
Speaker 2: don't know he's threatening. We shall see anyway, be Pete,
Speaker 2: what's your final word on this audio edition of the
Speaker 2: Friday Night Open Mic?
Speaker 3: Ohthough, well, I.
Speaker 5: Appreciate Danny and Jimmy calling in. Go to Chelli dot
Speaker 5: com he.
Speaker 3: To donate button.
Speaker 5: Every little bit helps and it would really help right
Speaker 5: now than that, looking forward to Aaron's show, and we'll
Speaker 5: see everybody next week.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, Look, I'm looking forward to Uncle especially, but Aaron
Speaker 2: has a show too, No offense Aaron, and we're looking
Speaker 2: forward to getting to all of it here on the
Speaker 2: live broadcast. And yeah, I would appreciate it. Plus, I
Speaker 2: do have my cash app, which I've been sharing in
Speaker 2: the you know, because that's at least a functional thing.
Speaker 2: That's still a Kelly Effect branded. But otherwise there are
Speaker 2: ways to donate through the website and you can find them.
Speaker 2: But if not, it's the I guess, the dollar side,
Speaker 2: the Ocelly effect, you know, all one word, that's how
Speaker 2: you cash app. I barely know how to use it,
Speaker 2: but it's still functional, so it's there and I appreciate
Speaker 2: it no matter what it is. And if not, look
Speaker 2: you can't afford to do that, share the show and form.
Speaker 2: Others do that, and at all times I think we
Speaker 2: should all just try to do better than we ever have.
Speaker 2: That is the encouragement we should go forward with. No
Speaker 2: matter how much time we on the planet, we should
Speaker 2: use it to the best of our ability and take
Speaker 2: advantage of the things that are available to us. And
Speaker 2: even though it was my birthday on Tuesday, I'm not,
Speaker 2: you know, necessarily enjoying the turning of time. But then again,
Speaker 2: it is what it is and I'm not in control
Speaker 2: of it, and neither of you. But meanwhile, you can
Speaker 2: be the effect, and I would appreciate it if you were.
Speaker 2: Until next week, I'll be talking to Larry Hancock for sure,
Speaker 2: and I've got a couple of other people possibly maybe
Speaker 2: some more guests next week, which i haven't been doing
Speaker 2: too many lately, but I'm thinking about it. Plus, on
Speaker 2: Monday morning, at what is it, ten am to one pm,
Speaker 2: I'm live with you know, am, wake up there. I
Speaker 2: think they've decided to call it Chuck Wagon Monday to
Speaker 2: separate me from the other Charles and Charlie or Chuck
Speaker 2: or whoever the hell is on as co hosts for
Speaker 2: the rest of the week. So I guess it's Chuck
Speaker 2: Wagon Monday, which is better than the Monday Up Chuck,
Speaker 2: I got, yes, but judge for yourselves and think for
Speaker 2: yourselves at all times. Anyway, I'm merely o'celly.
Speaker 10: I love
