Speaker 1: It's Friday and some some contract blah blah blah, Fiveday's week.
Speaker 1: So here we are. It is a bit of a
Speaker 1: roundup of the week that was. But we got to
Speaker 1: talk prisoner swap deals, comments, Mike drop moments, and just
Speaker 1: you know, the standard disingenuous everything that continues to permeate Washington.
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna tell you, I'm gonna make a I'm
Speaker 1: gonna make a concerted effort to talk about anything other
Speaker 1: than that because I want to get into weekend mode.
Speaker 1: And you know, maybe your weekend is a fun one.
Speaker 1: You're gonna go do something. You're like, it's a thousand
Speaker 1: degrees out, so at least let's go to the beach.
Speaker 1: Great or you're gonna go hide in the mountains. Totally understandable.
Speaker 1: I was talking to a couple of buddies that are
Speaker 1: headed up into the mountains do a little golfing up there.
Speaker 1: Those dudes had the right idea. So just just know,
Speaker 1: for you red meat folks, we're gonna do some stuff
Speaker 1: that ain't super red meat. But we I mean, we
Speaker 1: got to obviously, we got to talk about the big
Speaker 1: stories of the day. Okay, so that'll be yet Pete
Speaker 1: Callander's not here because he's a quitter. No, the dude
Speaker 1: almost never takes any time off. He's off this week.
Speaker 1: So we told him we were sending him on a
Speaker 1: vacation to thank him, but we actually put him on
Speaker 1: a plane to Caracas to fix stuff. So I think
Speaker 1: it'll be pleasantly surprised Ross. You've see how much he
Speaker 1: likes to argue on Twitter. We get him down there,
Speaker 1: probably negotiate with Duro to admit that he's a election thief.
Speaker 1: I'm sure it'll be fine and not like what was
Speaker 1: that horrific story you told me yesterday about the the
Speaker 1: Ross was doing weird pole Pot research for some reason,
Speaker 1: and frankly it was slightly terrifying. What was it a
Speaker 1: British dude who decide he was going to go and
Speaker 1: learn from Polepot. So he flew to Cambodi and it
Speaker 1: didn't go well.
Speaker 2: Like Russ you know, he was like a famous Marxist
Speaker 2: from I believe England, and he at the time he
Speaker 2: was going to go back and show how good the
Speaker 2: regime was. Oh say, hey, we go interview this dude.
Speaker 2: He's going to document it, like show how great it
Speaker 2: was in the country. There, and so he arrives and
Speaker 2: you know he's going around the country and long story short,
Speaker 2: Polepot shot him in the head.
Speaker 1: Oh no, but you know what he wanted to see
Speaker 1: how it worked. Arguably he found out, so did he
Speaker 1: have like somebody? So then this was documented what happened
Speaker 1: to him. So he actually achieved what he was looking
Speaker 1: for because you were able to research it, right, I mean,
Speaker 1: mission accomplished. We'll get you the banner. You won't be
Speaker 1: able to be there because you decided to go lion
Speaker 1: I's pole Pot. But yeah, that didn't work out. So
Speaker 1: I think Pete's gonna have better luck down there. And
Speaker 1: and if Elon showed up with the space lasers for
Speaker 1: the fight, then he can document that.
Speaker 2: Do I have no idea what he's doing.
Speaker 1: I noticed on his Twitter account he just posted weird
Speaker 1: like soft raccoon porn. It's weird stuff. This is why
Speaker 1: you should follow on Twitter. So it's rather interesting. So
Speaker 1: we'll catch up with him next week. I'm sure the
Speaker 1: world will be insane next week. Don't worry. Don't worry.
Speaker 1: It's not going anywhere. We're not we're not near November yet.
Speaker 1: I don't care how much Halloween shop and you're doing
Speaker 1: because that's starting or pumpkin spice? Is it playing? It's
Speaker 1: pumpkin spice. I saw in like a list of things
Speaker 1: and I didn't click. I'm assuming that means the pumpkin
Speaker 1: spice is back already. Oh yeah, how many of you
Speaker 1: right now? Your wife was just walking by, heard what
Speaker 1: I just said and is now in a great one
Speaker 1: sees the opportunity. But two, I don't know the details.
Speaker 1: So if I lied and it's not true and I
Speaker 1: was reading something, I saw something, but it's not the
Speaker 1: thing with the Starbucks and the thing, then I apologize
Speaker 1: in advance. It's not your fault, but I'm not clicking
Speaker 1: on it. I'm not supporting that insanity. So yeah, that's
Speaker 1: just a basic run. I'm in a bit of a
Speaker 1: mood today. Not a bad mood, just a mood. But
Speaker 1: maybe that's just a Friday thing, you know what?
Speaker 2: What is.
Speaker 1: Every time I see an update on this story, I
Speaker 1: get more and more angry, especially because you remember last
Speaker 1: year we had a he's a retired gentleman for all
Speaker 1: practical purposes, and he's just he's working well, it was
Speaker 1: Low's right, was working at Low's. See he's a guy
Speaker 1: who's trying to walk out with I don't remember what
Speaker 1: it was, like, Hey, hey, you know we have this
Speaker 1: thing over there is called a register. You should you
Speaker 1: should swing by there. The guy's like, I'm gonna murder
Speaker 1: you now, and he struck this gentleman and killed him.
Speaker 1: And it was just so horrifying, and it's one of
Speaker 1: those things where you're like, well, at least as weird
Speaker 1: as it sounds. I don't want to say it's say
Speaker 1: one off, but you know, most of the time in
Speaker 1: these types of incidents, you don't see this. And then
Speaker 1: this horrible story from Wednesday on Wednesday where a or
Speaker 1: not on Wednesday on Wednesday is when they arrested this guy,
Speaker 1: but where this dude goes to Low's and he walks
Speaker 1: up to the front. I don't even know that this
Speaker 1: guy was trying to stop him. I think you just.
Speaker 2: Popped him.
Speaker 1: This guy wanted to steal steal what drill bits. Drill
Speaker 1: Bits said, which are not cheap. People are like, I
Speaker 1: think people are misunderstanding what this is. You get into
Speaker 1: the real high end, good kids. For those it's hundreds
Speaker 1: of dollars and it's probably immensely resullable. And he decided
Speaker 1: that he was gonna go equalizer on him and hit
Speaker 1: him in the hit. This hit an older person in
Speaker 1: the head with a sledgehammer. And and I say this
Speaker 1: not because I'm encouraging it, but it's like, just punch
Speaker 1: the dude. Okay, I'm looking at the guy. I'm looking
Speaker 1: at the guy that they arrested.
Speaker 2: Just punched the guy.
Speaker 1: I mean, don't do any of it, but to hit
Speaker 1: somebody with a sledgehammer, you can't tell me you were
Speaker 1: just trying to daize them so you could get out
Speaker 1: with your stuff. So now we're learning more about this
Speaker 1: guy they arrested. Let's see here. Let's let's see what
Speaker 1: he's been up to. What do you think ross? Probably
Speaker 1: in business school doing some charitable stuff. Oh no, I'm sorry, no,
Speaker 1: according to records, mister, uh, what's his Aaron Williams. Aaron Williams,
Speaker 1: who is being held without bond. Please don't screw this up, Durham.
Speaker 1: If he's the guy, let's see.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: Back in March, he must have skipped out on the UH.
Speaker 1: On his NBA classes, Williams was accused of stealing a
Speaker 1: glock from Bull City Armory. Also accused of altering the
Speaker 1: serial number of the weapon. Oh, and he's a felon,
Speaker 1: so you know, he's not supposed to have one, whether
Speaker 1: he steals it or buys it or I guess owns it,
Speaker 1: so not supposed to have it. And uh, yeah, he's
Speaker 1: the busy boy.
Speaker 2: Let's see.
Speaker 1: In February, he was charged with misdemeanor assault inflicting serious
Speaker 1: injury common law robbery. Always thought was a weird name
Speaker 1: for a charge, but whatever, possession of stolen goods. Huh,
Speaker 1: let's see here. He likes to speed, you know, probably
Speaker 1: to get the class. See driving without a license.
Speaker 2: That's not good.
Speaker 3: Oh.
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty one, felony of fleeing to elude. That's
Speaker 1: not just you ran a little bit like you had
Speaker 1: to do some stuff in California. Helicopter probably be following you,
Speaker 1: and you're live on Channel five, let's see. In twenty
Speaker 1: twenty three is mother file for legal guardianship to declare
Speaker 1: him incompetent, saying that her son suffered a TBI traumatic
Speaker 1: brain injury during a basketball game and then he began
Speaker 1: experiencing paranoia and unpredictable behavior. I don't know, it seems
Speaker 1: like this pattern of behavior. Has been predictable. Look, I
Speaker 1: don't know the totality of what's going on there, but
Speaker 1: I do know that there's a lot of people that
Speaker 1: have made a lot of claims about mental health stuff.
Speaker 1: At least this precedes it when when we see some
Speaker 1: of these really horrible stories and then I see like
Speaker 1: courtroom footage of them interacting and speaking with the judge
Speaker 1: and whatnot. And I'm not a psychiatrist, psychologist or whoever
Speaker 1: would do the evaluating here, but a lot of times
Speaker 1: you don't hear about it until something pretty horrible happens.
Speaker 1: But to just randomly hit somebody in the head with
Speaker 1: a sledgehammer, when as I'm reading this, I don't even
Speaker 1: know that he had to. I don't know what Low's
Speaker 1: policy is, especially among an employee who who this individual
Speaker 1: likely could have physically overpowered with little trouble. Then it
Speaker 1: just sounds like you're hitting people with a sledgehammer. Hit
Speaker 1: him with a sledgehammer. Just horrible stuff. So, like I said,
Speaker 1: just because we're not doing the media politics doesn't mean
Speaker 1: it's all it's all fun stuff. It's absolutely horrific. I mean,
Speaker 1: we got some stuff in the stack that's going to
Speaker 1: turn your stomach today, but you know what you need
Speaker 1: to know about it. So that's what we're gonna do also,
Speaker 1: and we'll get into this here directly. I was reliably
Speaker 1: informed about a week ago that we wouldn't be breaking
Speaker 1: some records over at the over at the Olympics because
Speaker 1: it was too hot or something, and like they just
Speaker 1: keep breaking records a lot, And it happened again yesterday,
Speaker 1: like actually three times. I submitted this story, and I
Speaker 1: think there's a third one, so I don't know. I'm
Speaker 1: beginning to think that maybe the reporting by Slate, I think,
Speaker 1: because who did that piece, whoopsie might be wrong. So
Speaker 1: let's do a little compare and contrast. We'll do that
Speaker 1: next here on the Case You Day radio program. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to tell you what this is, but
Speaker 1: you guys know what this is.
Speaker 2: You know what that sound is.
Speaker 1: Those are the shrinking eels. Oh never mind, I thought
Speaker 1: it was just the first part and then it cut off.
Speaker 1: Never mind, it's the whole quote from that. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: have we got a story. And now that I think
Speaker 1: about it, if they were the shrieking eels, it makes
Speaker 1: the story so much more horrific, Like the whole bug
Speaker 1: in my year story. I told you about the grossed
Speaker 1: a bunch of you out, nothing compared to this. I'll
Speaker 1: take a bug in a year all day. Ross can
Speaker 1: update the Twitter header. I'll be like nine Time Survivor,
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Oh oh, kit, hold on, what is I
Speaker 1: can't really tell what Donna wants to talk about. But
Speaker 1: it's Friday, it's Rando, so let's do this. Yes, Donna,
Speaker 1: what's up?
Speaker 4: Good morning, Casey? I know what story you're talking about.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw that you on the on the Twitter
Speaker 1: saw that as well, So you know.
Speaker 4: It's almost as if a judge had sent him up
Speaker 4: for any of the previous charges, he wouldn't have been
Speaker 4: able to wouldn't have been out around in society to
Speaker 4: slam somebody in the head with a sledgehammer.
Speaker 1: Look, and here's the thing. If my if like he
Speaker 1: legitimately has some like serious mental health stuff due to
Speaker 1: a traumatic brain industry, I'm not an injury. I'm not unsympathetic.
Speaker 1: What the hell is he doing running around? He's like this,
Speaker 1: he's stealing guns, shaven serial numbers, which takes a certain
Speaker 1: amount of you know, you gotta think you're gonna do that.
Speaker 4: He could have have your faculties to know that you
Speaker 4: have to scrape off the serial number unless somebody did
Speaker 4: it for him. I think he's probably lingering the mess.
Speaker 1: Now and maybe mom's like and I understand, I'm like,
Speaker 1: my mom would want custody, so she could probably haven't
Speaker 1: forcibly committed. But like other people have to agree that
Speaker 1: that's the thing. And I'm really curious that whole process.
Speaker 2: So but it's just.
Speaker 1: Well I understand that. But look, people, I know somebody
Speaker 1: who was a a functioning adult and it was and
Speaker 1: got in a car accident and he's not he's not
Speaker 1: his age anymore, right, and okay.
Speaker 4: So what he had to have like a legal guardian.
Speaker 1: Yeah he did. He suffered a serious enough brain injury
Speaker 1: in that car accident that essentially he functions, he functions as.
Speaker 3: Like a.
Speaker 2: Kid.
Speaker 1: And it's you know, but and if that's the case,
Speaker 1: but like this sounds this doesn't sound like that because
Speaker 1: that dude is also unfortunately in a wheelchair now, and
Speaker 1: it's it's a whole thing.
Speaker 4: But yeah, well, let this guy's mother be his legal
Speaker 4: guardian and then she can go to jail for stealing
Speaker 4: gun when he steals guns, I mean the atf kicks
Speaker 4: the doors in of people who don't commit crimes.
Speaker 1: They have the parents up in Michigan. Yeah, it's a
Speaker 1: whole sticky thing. It's just like but it's the part
Speaker 1: where you just don't think you're gonna have to in
Speaker 1: two consecutive years read about somebody who's just trying to
Speaker 1: make a few extra bucks working at Low's, probably maybe
Speaker 1: just for the discount, because he likes to do home improvement.
Speaker 1: I don't even know the backstory.
Speaker 2: And then you got.
Speaker 1: To read about your story. All right, all right, thank
Speaker 1: you're not spelling the eel story. Nobody's gonna have a
Speaker 1: good day after they hear that story.
Speaker 4: Nobody's gonna have a good weekend, have a good weekend.
Speaker 1: No, that story's gonna thank you, Donna. That story's gonna
Speaker 1: ruin everyone's weekend. But you know what, it's news. You
Speaker 1: need to know.
Speaker 2: That.
Speaker 1: And the Marxist from the UK, it's like, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go hang out with Paul Pott. Right, These are all
Speaker 1: a little factoids you get to squirrel away in your brain.
Speaker 1: Although the eels you squirrel them away somewhere else, as
Speaker 1: you will come to learn. All right, going back to
Speaker 1: July twenty so, one week ago Slate Science. Excuse me,
Speaker 1: they have you know, everything tab is on the science
Speaker 1: tab and the sports tab. Understandably, Olympic records are getting
Speaker 1: harder to break for a scary reason.
Speaker 2: All right, what's that?
Speaker 1: Rising temperatures may be the only records getting broke this year.
Speaker 1: I can't believe this thing is still published. Did they
Speaker 1: added it? Did they at least add anything? I don't
Speaker 1: know if you know what's going on. So they're breaking
Speaker 1: a butt ton of records at the Olympics. I mean,
Speaker 1: obviously that is where most you know, most of the
Speaker 1: records do get broken. The Olympics and then the World
Speaker 1: blah blah blah whatever. The the the big events are
Speaker 1: for like gymnastics and the World Track and Field. But
Speaker 1: you know, it's really that's where you see this happen
Speaker 1: because there's just so much of the common petition going on.
Speaker 1: That being said, Slay wrote this whole article about how
Speaker 1: here we go. I'll just read you. I'm gonna read
Speaker 1: you just a little bit of it. You can punish
Speaker 1: yourself if you want, on your own time. The Olympics
Speaker 1: are here, and like any sports fan, I get swept
Speaker 1: up in the thrill of an athlete attempting to set
Speaker 1: a new world record. Perhaps there's no better platform than
Speaker 1: the height of the Olympic Games, where the motto faster, Higher,
Speaker 1: Stronger is about surpassing old limits. Isn't that also the
Speaker 1: six million dollar man whatever in the era? But in
Speaker 1: the era of climate change, we should add one more
Speaker 1: sobering adjective to the motto warmer. It's more realistic than aspirational,
Speaker 1: to be sure, but still record setting, all right. And
Speaker 1: then they go through a bunch of this.
Speaker 2: Again.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna punish you with this, but the line
Speaker 1: in the article is just like rocks are gonna fly
Speaker 1: out of the sea and hit you, which I'm not
Speaker 1: making that up. That was That's still one of my favorite. Hey,
Speaker 1: this thing's going to happen. Right, We've had many of
Speaker 1: these articles. Hey guys, your sports car is not going
Speaker 1: to work climate change? Uh this pumpkin spice latte? You
Speaker 1: like that? Well, one, you're crazy. Two climate change it's
Speaker 1: going to ruin it or something. And and we just
Speaker 1: put them on the list. Let's go ahead and see.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, I don't know if you know, but they
Speaker 1: have been breaking records. This Olympics, and in fact, I
Speaker 1: want to say, and I don't know if it still
Speaker 1: holds true, it probably does because they I think they
Speaker 1: broke three yesterday. They've been really good at it this year,
Speaker 1: really good at it. In fact, I want to say
Speaker 1: that during the first few days they were at a
Speaker 1: higher pace than any modern Olympics. So whoops, that didn't
Speaker 1: pan out. Yeah, they haven't even haven't even changed anything
Speaker 1: or added an editor's note on this. Hey, this thing
Speaker 1: we said, that's not only is it not coming true,
Speaker 1: it's obscenely not coming true. It didn't really make sense
Speaker 1: when I read the article initially, Broz, Did you read
Speaker 1: this thing when I said it? Because we had in
Speaker 1: the stack like a week ago and I never got
Speaker 1: to it. But yeah, and you're were you convinced of
Speaker 1: the science of or no, not so much, dude. They're
Speaker 1: they're cracking records, the shooting sports, the Korean chick man
Speaker 1: and by the way, she's not even the one everyone's
Speaker 1: talking about. Although I don't know, do you think we
Speaker 1: should talk about the Turkey guy. I don't want to
Speaker 1: be on that dude's radar.
Speaker 2: Do The Turkey Guy's amazing. He looks like Tom cruise
Speaker 2: in Collateral, So, yes, do you like that movie? Still
Speaker 2: on them? You do? You know what? I here's what
Speaker 2: I didn't like about that movie. I didn't like.
Speaker 1: I like Jamie Fox. I thought I thought he made
Speaker 1: his character too much of a woos But he kind
Speaker 1: of had to be that because he's got a build
Speaker 1: to do what he's got to do. Anyway, I don't know,
Speaker 1: that's not why we're here. So the so modern shooting
Speaker 1: is amazing. In fact, I they're one of the email shooters.
Speaker 1: A few Olympics ago when I was broadcasting in Minnesota,
Speaker 1: was from like Hibbing, Minnesota or something like that, and
Speaker 1: she showed up at a was there Ducks Unlimited thing
Speaker 1: that I was at, and she had all her gear
Speaker 1: and like it's crazy when they're all geared up like
Speaker 1: they have like con they have weights that they you know,
Speaker 1: they have weighted clothes, right, and then they have this
Speaker 1: optic stuff that looks like they're, you know, a seal
Speaker 1: team ready to do a breach, and and they wear
Speaker 1: all this stuff and I'm sure it helps. I clearly
Speaker 1: don't understand all of it. And they're better shots than
Speaker 1: me and probably you all right, I know, you know
Speaker 1: I'm pretty it's crazy, right, and respect and they got
Speaker 1: all this stuff. This dude from Turkey rolls out like
Speaker 1: he's he's your uncle, showed up at the range and
Speaker 1: you didn't know he was coming, and then he proceeds
Speaker 1: to like kick everyone's butt. He's clearly a hit Man, right,
Speaker 1: He's clearly a hit Ye.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, why I made the collateral reference. I mean
Speaker 2: he looks just like that. Now he's become like a
Speaker 2: meme because everybody else, like he said, has their headphones
Speaker 2: on and their their eyewear and he's kevlar, Vesta or
Speaker 2: whatever they are.
Speaker 1: And so your body stays in position.
Speaker 2: He shows up in like jeans or sweatpants, a T
Speaker 2: shirt and no no glass or nothing, and he's holding
Speaker 2: his gun out. Dude, it looks like like Agent forty
Speaker 2: seven with his silver ballers just winning silver. It's amazing.
Speaker 2: And now they're putting him on it sound like a mame.
Speaker 2: Like they put him on like the hit Man game cover.
Speaker 2: They put him on the game for a metal gear
Speaker 2: solid but it's is no gear and it's just a
Speaker 2: guy's photo. Is amazing and apparently he just picked it
Speaker 2: up as a hobby. Apparently, Oh, yeah, that dad, or
Speaker 2: he's a hit man, and they're like, hey, we need
Speaker 2: to send somebody. Yeah, a hobby, a hobby, did you know?
Speaker 2: You know what?
Speaker 1: You know, his rates just went up, right because now
Speaker 1: if you want to have somebody murdered, now you got
Speaker 1: to there's a celebrity tax to it too.
Speaker 2: Right. The next the Olympic event is going to be
Speaker 2: killing the president of Paraguay with a fork, and they're
Speaker 2: still gonna send the same guy out.
Speaker 1: Dude, if that guy ever gets arrested, we'll trade journalists
Speaker 1: for him.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: So I'm sorry, I still can't get over the list.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the journalist for a silver metal winner? Sure, why not? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Oh I just like that dude. Man, because when you
Speaker 1: see if you watch this, if you watch the shooting stuff,
Speaker 1: the amount of stuff that they wear is pretty crazy.
Speaker 1: And I've never I have never been at a shooting range,
Speaker 1: with the exception of that one event I just told
Speaker 1: you about, which was at it was out this big
Speaker 1: outdoor range called the Horse and Hunt Club, which is
Speaker 1: a big shooting installation south of Minneapolis, and I've had
Speaker 1: the It's a really nice facility because they have trapid
Speaker 1: skied obviously, they have some equestrian stuff there. They have
Speaker 1: a shoot house. They have you can get birds, right,
Speaker 1: good acres upon acres for that. So if you want
Speaker 1: to get some chuckers, some pheasants or whatever.
Speaker 2: You can go.
Speaker 1: You can go, you know, hunt and and I remember this,
Speaker 1: this woman showed I forgive me, I don't remember her name.
Speaker 1: And then there were a few others and watching them
Speaker 1: walk out look like look like Tony Stark about like
Speaker 1: early Tony start was crazy, man. But they're explaining all
Speaker 1: this stuff, and like, you get it right, because if
Speaker 1: you shoot, you know the things that you're trying to
Speaker 1: protect yourself from doing so that you can be better
Speaker 1: shooting right. You want to have your body in the
Speaker 1: right position. You want to you know, you want to
Speaker 1: make sure the gun's obviously in the right position. And
Speaker 1: she was shooting. She's shooting twenty two's right, but and
Speaker 1: she's shooting from prone position, so she has a certain
Speaker 1: gear for that. This dude's standing with a pistol, just
Speaker 1: with a jean jacket or something like. It's just so
Speaker 1: random and.
Speaker 2: That's how it should be done, right. I think that's
Speaker 2: how that show is. Like I don't know, like if
Speaker 2: you'd have to shoot in the real world, right, you
Speaker 2: wouldn't have all your gear on. I had to say
Speaker 2: an issue too when I did taekwondo as a kid,
Speaker 2: right where you would do these tournaments and the adults
Speaker 2: as well, not just the children, where you would have
Speaker 2: these tournaments and like you had like the very thick
Speaker 2: head gear and the gloves and the thick footwear. And
Speaker 2: it's like you're walking around like the Michelin man or whatever,
Speaker 2: like you're just needed. It's not and it's not like
Speaker 2: real life if you actually need to use it, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Well, here's here's the only thing I was say about,
Speaker 1: especially the eyewear thing. Some people require corrective lenses to shoot,
Speaker 1: and obviously you should always you should always you know,
Speaker 1: eyes and ears if you're if you're gonna go shoot.
Speaker 2: This guy always. Yeah, they call him Bubba Yuga. It's
Speaker 2: the Boogeyman. It's terrifying. I remember to kill the Boogeyman.
Speaker 1: Remember breaking down all the the work ethic and the
Speaker 1: European Union and like Turkey had the most. It's because
Speaker 1: they're all killing people. It's like they're all hitmen, right,
Speaker 1: Is that probably?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: They just they obviously were the big diversion. And you know,
Speaker 1: if you're a proper Hitman, the hits, I mean, that's
Speaker 1: just one thing. It's the you got to put in
Speaker 1: the time, that's what's that's what's kind of so crazy.
Speaker 1: One of the video games that Ross and I both
Speaker 1: played that I actually I kind of enjoyed was hit
Speaker 1: Man because of the creative part of it.
Speaker 2: Right, you get like, oh, there's so many different ways
Speaker 2: to do a level. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And obviously that's not real life, but like you know,
Speaker 1: on real life or not real life. But when you
Speaker 1: see like a hip man portrayed in a in a movie, right,
Speaker 1: like ninety percent of what they're doing is set the whole.
Speaker 2: Thing up, right, And the same thing with those games,
Speaker 2: where a lot of it is having to adapt to
Speaker 2: what happens in the game because things don't go as planned. Right.
Speaker 2: Remember that movie? Gross, point blank love that movie.
Speaker 1: Oh it's one of my favorite movie. And you know
Speaker 1: what's what irritates me is it never streams anywhere.
Speaker 2: It doesn't. I saw that movie. I worked at the
Speaker 2: movie theater. I saw that movie in the theater because
Speaker 2: at the time I could watch movies for free, probably
Speaker 2: like seven or eight times. I know where you're going
Speaker 2: with this while you were talking adapting, because in the
Speaker 2: beginning of that movie, he's trying to kill a dude
Speaker 2: and everything goes, you know, the way it's not supposed
Speaker 2: to go, and he adapts and ends up killing the guy.
Speaker 2: But it just shows like, not everything he's gonna go
Speaker 2: as planned, you know what I mean. Spoiler. It'd be
Speaker 2: great if, like, you know, there's your target and suddenly
Speaker 2: it's just gonna start moving all crazy.
Speaker 1: And this is selfish. I also like that movie because
Speaker 1: if you see the scenes where she's broadcasting, she's actually
Speaker 1: turning the mic on and stuff right, which is a
Speaker 1: stupid thing, but it's the thing that bothers me.
Speaker 2: And then they have their headphones on.
Speaker 1: And if I ever, if we ever have a chance
Speaker 1: to interview Joe Rogan, I'm gonna I know that wasn't
Speaker 1: his gig, but that's you ever watch news radio the
Speaker 1: amount of times that Phil Hartman when clearly the light
Speaker 1: is not on, who are you talking to?
Speaker 2: Yeah? That as well as the Fraser Show when he
Speaker 2: would do his show.
Speaker 1: We need studios like that man just saying, but we
Speaker 1: don't work in public radio. So you should see some
Speaker 1: of their studios. Pretty crazy, all right, so we all
Speaker 1: we all agree the Turkish dude is clearly a hit man.
Speaker 1: Do you think they just called him? They're like, hey,
Speaker 1: you killing anyone this way? No, you might flying to Paris.
Speaker 1: We got a job put No, no, you don't have
Speaker 1: to murder anybody. Just these targets is all right, whatever,
Speaker 1: you know my rate, pay me my bitcoin or whatever,
Speaker 1: and we'll do this thing. So yeah, but they're they're
Speaker 1: just banging records. What do we have yesterday? Let's see,
Speaker 1: we had two swimming records, another shooting record. I'm trying
Speaker 1: to see here, well too, swimming. I can't remember what
Speaker 1: the third one, but you get my point. We were
Speaker 1: told that Boston Paul, we did the boneless Wings Supreme
Speaker 1: Court story on Monday. Try and keep up, bro. He
Speaker 1: probably wasn't up yet anyway. Yeah, so two swimming records
Speaker 1: and one other one. So the Slate article, you don't
Speaker 1: know what you're talking about. Oh wait, hold on, that's
Speaker 1: a good point. Yes, one of our inlid points out
Speaker 1: there will probably, yes, they will probably write an article
Speaker 1: say that they're breaking more records because of climate change.
Speaker 1: That is how it works. So if if you want
Speaker 1: to break a record, didn't somebody do a movie? It
Speaker 1: wasn't about breaking a record? What was it? No, it
Speaker 1: was it was like they were trying to figure out
Speaker 1: the easiest Guinness World record to break and then they
Speaker 1: went out to try to do one, and then I
Speaker 1: think they ended up breaking like several. Oh what was it?
Speaker 1: I don't know if it was a movie or if
Speaker 1: it was a YouTube series. It was pretty wild. And
Speaker 1: I've also seen one where where they wanted to they
Speaker 1: just wanted to medal and they were trying to figure
Speaker 1: out which where they could go in and get a medal.
Speaker 1: And that was that was based on a news story
Speaker 1: of that dude who did like a twenty three in
Speaker 1: me and figured out like he had some ancestry from
Speaker 1: some country that most people couldn't find on a map
Speaker 1: and was able to be an Olympic athlete.
Speaker 2: You'd be you'd be blown away.
Speaker 1: A number of people that are Olympic athletes for countries
Speaker 1: that they've literally never lived in because family heritage, which
Speaker 1: is the thing you can do. So ross, do you
Speaker 1: want to be an Olympian? You just did it twenty
Speaker 1: three and me, I'm sure there's something on there where
Speaker 1: they'd be like, yeah, sure.
Speaker 2: Whatever thing I told you I would. I would be
Speaker 2: an Olympian if they had like pace car participants, right.
Speaker 2: I mentioned this before where every time you watch like
Speaker 2: these guys in the pool, they're all flying in the
Speaker 2: pool and you don't really have a reference of a
Speaker 2: way of understanding how fast they're going, Like if you
Speaker 2: watch like all the cars going around the track at NASCAR,
Speaker 2: like they crazy I had, but when you're watching a
Speaker 2: TV though, like they're all going to the same speed
Speaker 2: and you can't really tell how fast they're going. So
Speaker 2: my job would to get in the pool as a
Speaker 2: regular person, and then you could see me as the
Speaker 2: regular person swimming in the pool and everybody else flying
Speaker 2: past me, and you'd be like, oh my god, those
Speaker 2: guys are so fast.
Speaker 1: Yeah that's what That's what that skier was, And I
Speaker 1: can't remember what the country was was. Not like I'm
Speaker 1: a better skier and I haven't skiing in a long
Speaker 1: time actually, but when I was, when I was doing
Speaker 1: a lot of scan, I'm not a great skier, but
Speaker 1: I could run black diamonds and not fall down. But
Speaker 1: like dude was falling down and like that was the
Speaker 1: whole thing. It was just like, ah, what country? Actually,
Speaker 1: I shouldn't say, dude. I think it was a woman, right,
Speaker 1: But when you consistently see them falling down, you realize
Speaker 1: how talented the other people. Yes, so you just want
Speaker 1: to be that guy you want to be. You can
Speaker 1: pull it off Guidestone for the but you got to
Speaker 1: pick in a that's a lot of swimming's a lot
Speaker 1: of work, bro, that'd be great.
Speaker 2: They should have like an average joe sort of entry
Speaker 2: into every competition.
Speaker 1: But they do. It's just from like they're from like
Speaker 1: Paraguay or something. I mean, they already exist. There's always
Speaker 1: there's always like they don't feature it a lot. But
Speaker 1: you know, some of these events, it's pretty if you
Speaker 1: watch them and they're like, here's the here's the skier
Speaker 1: from Oh what was the wildest thing that ever? Was
Speaker 1: it a there was a skier from Brazil or something. No,
Speaker 1: it wasn't bil I can't remember where it was. You
Speaker 1: know it was from Central I was from like Guatemala
Speaker 1: or something. And the dude lives in like Aspen and
Speaker 1: it was at the Winter Olympics. I'm like, Guatemala has
Speaker 1: his skier and then I'm like, oh, not really. It
Speaker 1: was like the Jamaican Bob Slid team. Yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 1: know that's the that's the big thing. But I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: you see that sometimes I'm like, oh, oh, they're not
Speaker 1: gonna medal. Probably not gonna medal anyway. All right, six
Speaker 1: fifty one, speaking of hit Man, what are we doing?
Speaker 1: What are we doing?
Speaker 2: Also?
Speaker 1: Should Trump have a time machine? We'll debate that coming up.
Speaker 1: Hang on, I to have you along. We got into
Speaker 1: a little sports record breaking slash hit Man discussion, cause
Speaker 1: you know, that's how we roll here on our Friday.
Speaker 1: We will not have Pete Callander joining us because he
Speaker 1: is he's on vacation this week, so he'll return next week.
Speaker 1: Just letting you know what's coming up. But don't worry,
Speaker 1: We've got plenty of stuff to fill it in with.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: So I was we were talking about the Olympics all
Speaker 1: this stuff, and I was trying to remember Ross wants
Speaker 1: a Ross once and I think it's a I think
Speaker 1: it's a great idea. And you have to know too,
Speaker 1: that the Olympics can kind of create a team out
Speaker 1: of nothing. There is a there is an Olympic team
Speaker 1: that he is refugees. Right, So if you're I don't
Speaker 1: know exactly what qualifies you or where you have to
Speaker 1: be from and then living now or how that works.
Speaker 1: But there is an entire Olympic team of people who
Speaker 1: are considered refugees under whatever that standard is. So ross
Speaker 1: wanting an everyman thing, if only to make everyone else
Speaker 1: look better, I think it's an amazing idea. Now, how
Speaker 1: do you keep it from filling up though, with people
Speaker 1: who were like one out from the main team, which
Speaker 1: wouldn't provide the contrast that you're suggesting. That's I think
Speaker 1: that's the challenge there, right, because it's you know, it's everybody.
Speaker 2: We could just do it via draft per country, and
Speaker 2: it's like, if you're you're between the ages of forty
Speaker 2: to fifty, okay, and get a draft notice and you're
Speaker 2: any Olympics here just.
Speaker 1: One day they're like, hey, you're a high diver, yes,
Speaker 1: and you just get the letter in the mail like
Speaker 1: jury duty and you better show up, right, Okay, all right,
Speaker 1: that's it.
Speaker 2: That's what I was right, I did this.
Speaker 1: I love that one of our listeners and by the way,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry your wife was mortified, sir, but you know what,
Speaker 1: you don't tell her she's married to a triathlete. But
Speaker 1: most women can't say that. Does she tell her friends
Speaker 1: at book club or whatever? I don't know where to
Speaker 1: do a triathlete and Ross, you asked if he finished?
Speaker 1: He says he finished. He doesn't say he finished that day.
Speaker 2: But hey, it doesn't matter if it was that day
Speaker 2: or not. I mean he finished.
Speaker 1: I mean that's done. This is it in the rules,
Speaker 1: you have to finish that day.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think they would like you too. It's the same
Speaker 1: with every man this sway. Can you imagine you get drafted? Ross,
Speaker 1: You just got drafted for the fifteen hundred men's butterfly, right.
Speaker 2: I'm in it to win it.
Speaker 1: You're in it to win it. But when you finally
Speaker 1: touch the wall on the on the final of the
Speaker 1: final length, you look up, everybody's already got their bags
Speaker 1: packed like feet looking at you.
Speaker 2: If I completed and did not drown a national television
Speaker 2: that's a huge accomplishment.
Speaker 1: Would your wife be in barrissed a proud Oh proud? Yes,
Speaker 1: She's like, I'm merried doing Olympian Maybe next year I'll
Speaker 1: get drafted and have to do my thing where with
Speaker 1: a badge of honor. Dude, you get to eat the meals,
Speaker 1: you get sleep on the cardboard beds. You probably don't
Speaker 1: want to get drafted for the swimming because you might
Speaker 1: get sick, which I'm told is not the fault of
Speaker 1: the river that's filled with poop, even though you spent
Speaker 1: literally like a gazillion dollar, like a billion and a
Speaker 1: half dollars to clean your river up, and people got sick,
Speaker 1: and then you pretended like they got sick from the food,
Speaker 1: which I thought was weird. But okay, just the swimmers
Speaker 1: that did the thing, they the only ones that they
Speaker 1: had the bad food in the chowel hall where everyone's
Speaker 1: eating the same thing. Okay, absolutely, and it's not your
Speaker 1: poopy river, gotcha. Uh So, congrats to you, sir, and
Speaker 1: again tell your why, hey, tryathlete, you married a triathlete, please,
Speaker 1: you should be bragging all over town.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: Let me get to this though, because this is one
Speaker 1: of my favorite Olympics stories, and it was a woman.
Speaker 1: Her name was Elizabeth Swaeney, American America, woo, all right,
Speaker 1: and she wanted to compete in the Winter Olympics. And
Speaker 1: she obviously wasn't going to make the team, but uh,
Speaker 1: she got a little Hungarian background, and the Hungarian team
Speaker 1: apparently didn't have somebody to do the and this is
Speaker 1: what made it so great. So she was competing in
Speaker 1: the halfpipe. So this is the trick skiing, right. And
Speaker 1: by the way, when I skied, I used to ski
Speaker 1: Solomon Excreames one sixty eight. I can't remember what they're
Speaker 1: just blow one seventies, but it's a shorter ski. It's
Speaker 1: got a wider thing on it. Because I used to
Speaker 1: like to and I was not good at it, but
Speaker 1: I was young enough that I could wreck in the
Speaker 1: most horrific fashion and generally not break anything. And I
Speaker 1: would try to hit jumps and I'm talking and I
Speaker 1: would go into the into the halfpipe and and I
Speaker 1: don't know that I landed very much, but I thought
Speaker 1: it was really cool. All the snowboarders hated me, don't
Speaker 1: care whatever, and that's great. She was not as good
Speaker 1: as me. I'm serious, I am serious, because I could
Speaker 1: actually get a little air there man and not come.
Speaker 1: I'm sure it didn't look graceful, but I stayed up.
Speaker 1: So she's like, well, I'm not that good, but I'd
Speaker 1: love to be an Olympian. She was thirty three at
Speaker 1: the time. It was pyeong Chang. So this is South Korea,
Speaker 1: what like two Winter Olympics ago, yeah, twenty eighteen. So
Speaker 1: she shows up. She I cause again, if you've got
Speaker 1: some heritage there that a lot of people will then
Speaker 1: go play for other cause why when the Olympic hockey
Speaker 1: rolls around, you know, Canada, Russia like all, you know,
Speaker 1: the Ovechkins of the world and everybody, they go play
Speaker 1: for where they're from. But in this case, I don't
Speaker 1: even know she'd been to Hungry before, but whatever, So
Speaker 1: she's there. The halfpipe person she attempted zero tricks. The
Speaker 1: videos wild because you see her. Everybody like the person
Speaker 1: in front of her. You've got the big air competitions
Speaker 1: going on. People are coming in, they're pulling you know, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, they're uh six six eight or six eighties
Speaker 1: or whatever. I don't even know what it is. This
Speaker 1: is don't care, and that it's her turn, and she does.
Speaker 1: She's trying to like bunny hop on her skis.
Speaker 2: It's doesn't hit.
Speaker 1: She did hit one ramp I think got a little
Speaker 1: bit of air and almost ate it and then in
Speaker 1: one of the this was in the qualifiers. She obviously
Speaker 1: didn't even make it to the main event, but she
Speaker 1: finished thirteenth out of fifteen, and it was only because
Speaker 1: she didn't finish dead last because there were people had
Speaker 1: to withdraw, so don't let her tell you she beat anybody.
Speaker 1: But she didn't care, man. I remember they were like
Speaker 1: interviewing her. She's like, I'm an Olympian, shut your face whole.
Speaker 1: This is gonna be great. And then she just a
Speaker 1: little hoppy hoppy. She kind of go up the side
Speaker 1: of the half pipe. Oh, they know it's a little high,
Speaker 1: get one ski off and then drop and then she
Speaker 1: does this little hop thing and that's how she did.
Speaker 1: And even she didn't even bother to attempt a trick,
Speaker 1: and then she did fall down after not doing a trick.
Speaker 1: Absolutely amazing. As you can imagine, she did not advance,
Speaker 1: so let's see, and then the judges were all but
Speaker 1: hurt and they literally talked about changing glorying, well, why
Speaker 1: she didn't she didn't advance. The only reason she was
Speaker 1: even in the qualifiers because Hungary put her up there
Speaker 1: and you had to at least let her do a run.
Speaker 1: And then she made it okay because she made the
Speaker 1: qualifier that she made it into the main Games. Because
Speaker 1: you had so many people withdraw well that's on you,
Speaker 1: just so dumb now to be able to do it.
Speaker 1: She did have to get some sort of World Cup
Speaker 1: circuit points to be eligible to represent one of the countries.
Speaker 1: But you can you get points. It's like you ever
Speaker 1: have a teacher to give you points for putting your
Speaker 1: name on top of something. She just did a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of things. She wrote her name enough times that
Speaker 1: she met the points requirement. Obviously she had a lot
Speaker 1: of money to burn.
Speaker 2: It looks like.
Speaker 1: She's she would do it okay, But hey, good for her.
Speaker 1: I mean, granted, you sold your country out to go
Speaker 1: represent Hungary, but you were no real threat. All right, yeah,
Speaker 1: here we go, yeah steel Spence. What do they have
Speaker 1: such weird names over at the Olympic Committee? What is
Speaker 1: the what's the IOC chairman's name? I feel dirty every
Speaker 1: time I say it on the on the air or spokesman.
Speaker 1: We only heard we only heard so much about the
Speaker 1: dude because of all the crap Russia was pulling. No,
Speaker 1: that's not the guy. Who is the other dude? Get
Speaker 1: a very offensive name. I'll find it. I'll find it
Speaker 1: during the break. I'm trying to do two things at once.
Speaker 1: But are you gonna tell the eel story? I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell the eel story. I didn't say when I was
Speaker 1: gonna tell.
Speaker 2: You want to? You want me to tell the old story?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 1: Okay? Email her, I'll find I'll tell the eel story. Ross,
Speaker 1: you got the drop ready?
Speaker 3: All right?
Speaker 1: Ross has the drop ready? And get over the eel story?

Speaker 1: look if you're in it, If you're in it that far, sir,
Speaker 1: you gotta go electric. Am I wrong? I don't know

Speaker 1: get horses and some and bulls sometimes to uh provide
Speaker 1: samples so that you can use them for ai. That's
Speaker 1: got a little little zappi.
Speaker 2: Zip to it.
Speaker 1: That's born you wanted to know. But that's the thing.

Speaker 1: old was admitted on July twenty seventh with excruciating abdominal pain.

Speaker 1: was an eel, because that was way too common. Ross

Speaker 1: is her actual what kind of doctor is she? Technically?
Speaker 1: I guess gastrooneurologists, right and bolly crap the stories anyway?
Speaker 1: Doctors learned about the No, it looks like he fessed up.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think the thing here is you got to be
Speaker 1: straight with your doctor. You can't just be like I
Speaker 1: was swimming and all of a sudden this thing had
Speaker 1: was I entered a triathlon?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: My wife was mortified and how she was right?
Speaker 2: I was swimming in.

Speaker 1: this eel's like, hey, that looks like a good place
Speaker 1: to hide now now he uh he said, hey, I
Speaker 1: put it in my butt and uh see, according to
Speaker 1: the doctor, the eel had bitten through the patients everything.
Speaker 1: I'm not reading all this. Oh, once we realized what
Speaker 1: what it hapened? What do you mean once you realize
Speaker 1: what's happened?

Speaker 1: I saw the reader version.
Speaker 2: Damn it.
Speaker 1: It's it's doesn't look happy, but eels like the hiding
Speaker 1: places you think it.
Speaker 2: Would be happy.
Speaker 1: Patient was examined, he's got food, happens to be the guy,
Speaker 1: he's got the ultim revenge. Yeah, so there it is
Speaker 1: eel skeleton line inside the abdominal cavity. Doctors attempted to
Speaker 1: remove it via the entry where he put it. Oh, ross,
Speaker 1: do you know why they weren't able to pull it
Speaker 1: out of where they put it? Have you read that?
Speaker 1: You haven't read this yet.
Speaker 2: Have you? I know I haven't read it. I was
Speaker 2: very busy, been.
Speaker 1: Super Yeah, you just seemed a little busier when this story.
Speaker 2: So many other articles I was reading, I had to
Speaker 2: skip over the eel up the butt story.
Speaker 1: So oh well, yeah, Unfortunately they couldn't pull it there
Speaker 1: because they they had also jammed a lime up there.
Speaker 2: Just a natural progression of things.
Speaker 1: I guess when the eels in your butt and it
Speaker 1: chews through your gut, that's some morey that is the
Speaker 1: best comment I've ever seen. Good for you, sir. I'm

Speaker 1: and four inches in diameter. Why the why the line?
Speaker 2: There's a picture of the eel in the lime? Do
Speaker 2: eels e limes? You know?
Speaker 1: The the greatest thing is about to happen in thirty seconds.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be forced, due to a hard break, to
Speaker 1: not do this anymore. But I just I have so many,
Speaker 1: so many questions, like where'd you get the eel? Why
Speaker 1: the lime?
Speaker 2: Did you go?
Speaker 1: Did you go on Google? And you're like, what do
Speaker 1: eels eat? And they're like eat limes? Because some guy

Speaker 1: something right so that you can always see it if
Speaker 1: you got one. I don't know if you got one me,
Speaker 1: I would have that thing. I would have the most
Speaker 1: ornate like Victorian era frame, and that thing would be
Speaker 1: straight up in the living room. Ross, you could put
Speaker 1: it next to your weird cat data poster. Ross did
Speaker 1: a triathlon. Yeah, you want people to that's a conversation piece.
Speaker 1: That's amazing, all right. See. I love Fridays because we
Speaker 1: can go down these roads and my squirrel brain is
Speaker 1: rewarded with fun stories. Oh wait, hold on, now, somebody's
Speaker 1: mad that we're I'm not blaming the eel. We're disparaging eels.
Speaker 1: Your eelwood, your your eel. Gandhy wouldn't do that. The
Speaker 1: gandhy of eels wouldn't chew through a man's guy. I
Speaker 1: understand what eel's like. I could get out of here.
Speaker 1: You know what, the dude's lucky. Dude's lucky. It wasn't
Speaker 1: a wolf field. You ever seen one of those? I
Speaker 1: had not seen one of those. And then I saw
Speaker 1: a picture of a fish like one of those fishermen
Speaker 1: like from the Alaska show Hold, one of these bad boys,
Speaker 1: and it's all coil around his arm. The thing is
Speaker 1: clearly is as long as he is tall, and as
Speaker 1: big a round almost as his neck, and the face
Speaker 1: of the head on it's huge, and it has teeth
Speaker 1: like crazy teeth. I sent Ross a picture of this thing,
Speaker 1: although we didn't use our drop. I sent Ross a
Speaker 1: picture of this thing. You want one of those for
Speaker 1: the home tank? You want one of You want one
Speaker 1: of those wolf eels? Uh? For for the boy? A
Speaker 1: nice new eel pet? Hell No, I don't want. If

Speaker 1: with the battery of tests to really you do the
Speaker 1: X ray and it's I and he even told you that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I put an eel and a line in there. I mean,
Speaker 1: can I've reread the story. I can't figure out the line.
Speaker 1: What was what we were going for there, like bait
Speaker 1: it with food that it clearly doesn't eat. But yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you got to go through that the whole time. The
Speaker 1: dude's abdomen is shrieking and he's screaming. That's like that.

Speaker 1: a picture, So yeah, wear the metal to bed. It's anyway.
Speaker 2: What a respectable triathlon time is about two hours forty
Speaker 2: five minutes to three hours ten minutes.
Speaker 1: Okay, I would estimate it about three hours. So what
Speaker 1: do you think dude's time was?
Speaker 2: Five hours? Seven hours?
Speaker 1: Seven hours?
Speaker 2: Yeah? That any bad? Yeah? I don't know. It's amazing

Speaker 2: So yeah, but I can't really swim that good. I'm
Speaker 2: a really bad swimmer. So would I would die?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: What if I told you there was a wolf field
Speaker 1: chasing you?
Speaker 2: I might be able to make it.
Speaker 1: Michael Phelps Ross's Michael Phelps. Yeah, you don't want to.
Speaker 1: That is horrible. You said that you fight that in
Speaker 1: dark souls.
Speaker 2: I believe it looks like a dark souls. Boss.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. We can just tweet that picture.

Speaker 1: that thing will haunt your dreams even more so than.
Speaker 3: So.
Speaker 1: They did like a weird There was a weird Kamala
Speaker 1: Harris video where she's an oopa and they did like
Speaker 1: but they made her face look like it. That haunts
Speaker 1: my dreams currently. That and Wolf feels all right.
Speaker 2: So seven hours.
Speaker 1: Sure, obviously you're in decent shape because you didn't die.
Speaker 1: You got a medal, a hat, and a picture. I
Speaker 1: would always wear the hat in the medal everywhere everywhere
Speaker 1: I'm talking, even if you're going to like a black
Speaker 1: tie dinner boom metal. You know why because speaking are like,
Speaker 1: what are you wearing a metal? You an Olympian triathlete? Oh,
Speaker 1: very impressive. I would be impressed. Good for you.
Speaker 2: All right, So.
Speaker 1: Coming up on the show, we don't got Pete Calender.
Speaker 1: So here's what we're gonna do. We want to get
Speaker 1: I want to have somebody else full time so I
Speaker 1: don't have to do stuff, because that's how it works
Speaker 1: around here. So Ross has reached out, We're gonna get
Speaker 1: Mark Walker on former congressman I was candidate, but it's
Speaker 1: gonna be I want to talk to him because you know,
Speaker 1: there's a There was a lot of discussion and Mark
Speaker 1: Robinson kind of alluded to this on on our w
Speaker 1: during our Wednesday interview, and that is, you know, there
Speaker 1: were a lot of people were looking at that Trump thing,
Speaker 1: and then especially when you see the video of like
Speaker 1: the minute in the seconds before the shot, like head
Speaker 1: turn and body repositioning to point up at that graph,
Speaker 1: and you see all of that in like some models
Speaker 1: have been built out how at any other moment leading
Speaker 1: up to that, And we'll never know probably after that,
Speaker 1: but again we don't know because obviously he reacted like
Speaker 1: this is a different thing altogether. See is getting their
Speaker 1: money shot, you know what I'm saying. Wild And CNN
Speaker 1: was carrying that whole thing anyway, So.
Speaker 2: Divine intervention, right, I was sinking And then we didn't
Speaker 2: You and I didn't talk about this, but you know
Speaker 2: yesterday that Pete wasn't gonna be on him, like, well,
Speaker 2: maybe we can get Mark on. Yeah, And I thought that,
Speaker 2: And the reason I had that thought is for the
Speaker 2: same idea is, yeah, when I saw, you know, during
Speaker 2: the Trump but you know, the attempt assassination on him,
Speaker 2: one of my first thoughts was, I wonder what Mark
Speaker 2: Walker would have to say about this, right.
Speaker 1: Because if you don't know, Mark became in his current capacity,
Speaker 1: and this is what I wanted to tell people. Obviously
Speaker 1: he is a pastor by trade, but he is he
Speaker 1: is part of the campaign, but he is doing religious outreach.
Speaker 2: Stuff right right, and what we witnessed was a miracle.
Speaker 2: So I would love to hear Mark's opinion on it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we're gonna have he's confirmed at eight o five.
Speaker 2: Yeah, eight o six, Yeah, eight o six. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I like to lie to the audience to give him
Speaker 1: a hope that we're actually coming back in eight oh five.
Speaker 1: It'll be a deal with it. So uh yeah, we'll
Speaker 1: chat with him, uh coming up at eight o six, Uh,
Speaker 1: and we'll talk about that. And I'm also curious what
Speaker 1: else is uh, what else.
Speaker 2: Is going on?
Speaker 1: We'll find out if Trump is brat, which is that
Speaker 1: that whole Kamala is brad thing?
Speaker 2: I just what is that? I know, I'm not gonna
Speaker 2: if I refuse, I'm not going to google it. I'm
Speaker 2: so tired of it. Google crap, No, not.
Speaker 1: Gonna do it, not gonna do it, not gonna do it.
Speaker 1: Bring at Phil Heart? Was that Phil Hartman? When you
Speaker 1: do it? It was that his impression, not gonna do it.
Speaker 1: It's car data, Carvey, that's right, so good, so good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but no, we're not. We're not gonna do that. I
Speaker 1: refuse to embrace the brat thing. I think I know
Speaker 1: enough to where I don't want to know anymore. I
Speaker 1: know what you're saying. You're like, Casey, that's your job,
Speaker 1: so you can tell it. You don't want to know,
Speaker 1: you don't want to know, You'll think.
Speaker 2: The last zoomor thing that I really googled when it
Speaker 2: comes to slang was the cap no cap thing. And
Speaker 2: that's I'm done. I'm done. I'm at the age where
Speaker 2: I'm not doing anymore. If I if it sounds like nonsense,
Speaker 2: it's not. I don't care. I'm old, cranky man, and
Speaker 2: I don't care.
Speaker 1: You're trying to do your thing early. You can't do that,
Speaker 1: you can't. I've always been dream is, yes, I've always
Speaker 1: been an old soul.
Speaker 2: My mom said so living that.
Speaker 1: Ross just wants to be old. Enough to steal and
Speaker 1: flip children off. That's yeah, that's a dream. All right,
Speaker 1: it's seven forty four. What are we doing the thing?
Speaker 1: But not the thing?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: Okay, no, the thing. Oh, we're doing the thing. All right,
Speaker 1: let's do the thing with the change things change, thank
Speaker 1: you change.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 2: I'll tell people what the thing was.
Speaker 1: We were trying to figure out if Ray was going
Speaker 1: to do a live head. I've told people that sometimes
Speaker 1: we have to record it because you're celebrity and you're
Speaker 1: doing interviews. What what are you doing? What are you

Speaker 2: Is it Andrew Colton? Oh? Andrew?
Speaker 1: I know Andrew Colton. I have no idea was doing mornings?
Speaker 1: He was, He was up at the station I worked
Speaker 1: in Minneapolis for about five minutes anyway, Okay, yeah, don't
Speaker 1: tell you didn't have Jimmy. Jimmy Jimmy Sephalo was the
Speaker 1: man I filled in on that show once and they
Speaker 1: have a the craziest clock, dude. And when I was

Speaker 1: interim and they let me do iod and I'm like,
Speaker 1: this clock is whack.
Speaker 5: But whatever, yeah, whatever, right, yeah, but we're hearing we're
Speaker 5: live and I'll talk to them next hour. So maybe
Speaker 5: maybe not then listen, you might you know, I might
Speaker 5: be in high demand for you next week because you know,
Speaker 5: now everybody's attention all of a sudden, because we're talking
Speaker 5: about something in the tropics and may actually try to
Speaker 5: go up the entire East coast.
Speaker 6: So no, no, no, no, yeah, listen, listen, listen, no, listen, no.
Speaker 6: I my my in laws are coming to visit, and
Speaker 6: the last time they visited was March of twenty twenty
Speaker 6: and COVID ball.
Speaker 2: Now listen. If there is some sort of big storm
Speaker 2: event and they get stuck in my house, I swear
Speaker 2: to God.
Speaker 1: Right, well, I mean, but you're not on that, that's right, right?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Oh man, dude it yeah, turn turn your heart
Speaker 2: machine off to give give your keys. You're too old,

Speaker 1: one tornado was great in the nineties. How about too, right,
Speaker 1: there's a great pitch meaning yeah, so.
Speaker 2: Too, I give you my aunt. I don't know, but
Speaker 2: he is.
Speaker 5: Thanks, don't care, but I do think we are going
Speaker 5: to have Debbie. So it'll take some time, but I
Speaker 5: think it's early middle next week. We may be looking
Speaker 5: at either a tropical storm or potentially a hurricane off
Speaker 5: the Carolina coast. If you believe the America model, we'll
Speaker 5: have a hurricane and it's not gonna move very quickly,
Speaker 5: as it'll be in the Tuesday through whatever time.
Speaker 4: Oop.
Speaker 2: Sorry, see.
Speaker 1: Ross, You're right obviously he is. He's yeah, sorry about
Speaker 1: that anyway. Now we'll make landfall in Dillsborough. Debbie hits Dillsborough.
Speaker 1: Trying to think of other towns named d in North Carolina,
Speaker 1: davids and Danby could be Danville. Well that's Virginia, right, yeah.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 1: He's in charge of harp now, so all.
Speaker 5: Right, either way, impacts for the coast possible. We're still
Speaker 5: gonna have heat committity today lot to mid nineties depends
Speaker 5: on where you are with a heat advisory basically from
Speaker 5: stuff as parts of the triad not in it. But
Speaker 5: either way, hot enough heat into season one O five
Speaker 5: to one ten likely storms each afternoon Saturday Sunday, and
Speaker 5: then next week. We'll worry about next week because I
Speaker 5: mean there's even a chance we could have inland impacts
Speaker 5: from that. Sorry, Ross, But as we get into the
Speaker 5: first few days of next week, so lot's to watch
Speaker 5: in the tropics, certainly stay two more updates coming as
Speaker 5: made available.
Speaker 1: Yeah, inland impacts. That's code for Ross's house. Is that
Speaker 1: what that is?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 2: I tried to code it.
Speaker 1: That's fantastic.
Speaker 2: Try to hide that.
Speaker 1: Oh way, hold on Boston Paul's I mean email, shut
Speaker 1: up and let race. I think he wrote that I
Speaker 1: don't read functionally illiterate, so I don't know if that's
Speaker 1: what he meant. So yeah, all right, well we'll talk
Speaker 1: to you in the next hour, unless you got to try. Okay, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll do our thing. Thank you. All right, there you go.
Speaker 2: Well that's good man.
Speaker 1: You guys gonna you know the Waltons at your house?
Speaker 1: Do you guys all yell good night to each other?
Speaker 2: There's like some sort of massive storm event. Well, my
Speaker 2: in lawns are here, I swear they're never going to
Speaker 2: visit again.
Speaker 1: They're also never going to leave. That's why they want
Speaker 1: to come to visit, because they already be there anyway.
Speaker 1: All right, well, well we'll let Ray speak a little
Speaker 1: more in the next hour. Right now, we'll take a
Speaker 1: breaking in. Oh, Joe Biden, guys Zinger, Dark Brandon, bro
Speaker 1: Dark Brandon doing his thing, uh, talking about the release
Speaker 1: of three US hospital well two and a half, I
Speaker 1: guess because technically one of the hostages his dual citizenship
Speaker 1: with Russia and.
Speaker 2: And the US.
Speaker 1: But Paul Wheeling the reporter anyway, so Biden's there and
Speaker 1: one of the reporters or maybe I don't know, maybe
Speaker 1: a plant I don't even know who asked the question
Speaker 1: fires this question in Biden's direction, and this is his
Speaker 1: response repeatedly, that.
Speaker 5: He could have gotten the hostages out without giving anything
Speaker 5: in exchange.
Speaker 1: What do you say to that? What do you say
Speaker 1: to President shump?
Speaker 2: Now, former president, why didn't you do?
Speaker 1: Here's Dana Bash by the way, I think that was.
Speaker 3: What they call him drop moment at the end.
Speaker 1: That's because you're an idiot, and you're an idiot because
Speaker 1: Trump specifically when he made that statement, was referring to Guskowitz. Gustowitz, Sorry,
Speaker 1: I don't have his name right in front of me,
Speaker 1: the reporter, And that was because they were talking about
Speaker 1: at that time in retrospect to the w NBA player
Speaker 1: and specifically the Lord of War and that deal. And
Speaker 1: Trump was reminding folks that he was offered that deal
Speaker 1: for Wheelan, who was the only hostage who was a
Speaker 1: hostage when Trump was president. And then he was asked
Speaker 1: about Guskowitz and he said the other thing that was
Speaker 1: just quoted by Biden. The problem is the dude wasn't
Speaker 1: a hostage until two years into the Biden regime. And
Speaker 1: the other neither was the third And is this this
Speaker 1: was actually part of a bigger deal where we literally
Speaker 1: we traded like and and some other European countries because
Speaker 1: Germany was holding on to essentially John Wick, right, and
Speaker 1: we're just like, can we get this for a John Wick?
Speaker 2: Where these are the deals we're making with Russia?
Speaker 1: The people that traded out And I don't know, maybe
Speaker 1: wheeling does work for the CIA, who the hell knows,
Speaker 1: but like the people we traded out were for, you know,
Speaker 1: we've captured this eighty year old English teacher who was
Speaker 1: vacationing to take pictures of Saint Petersburg.
Speaker 2: What do you give it?
Speaker 1: Will you give us John Wick for her? Sure? Yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 1: that's what we did. And it actually it's so much
Speaker 1: worse than just the three. But it's not a mic
Speaker 1: drop moment unless Trump has a friggin time machine. And
Speaker 1: by the way, Ross, I didn't see the video yet.
Speaker 1: What did the hostage say when he got off the
Speaker 1: plane at Andrews this morning?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was hilario. He goes, well, I'm never never
Speaker 2: going there again. Brow. It's a good idea, and that's
Speaker 2: why we don't leave the country.
Speaker 1: This is just Ross compounding his view. So we invited
Speaker 1: on Mark Walker, and I want to do this official
Speaker 1: since we brought you on in your current stet what
Speaker 1: is your what is your official title now with the
Speaker 1: with the campaign or the RNC stuff you're doing.
Speaker 3: I guess the exact wording is Principal Advisor to the
Speaker 3: RNC on Faith Outreach, nonprofits, minority ministries. Long title. Just
Speaker 3: trying to get out there and get people in the
Speaker 3: faith community to realize what's at stake. Meeting with a
Speaker 3: lot of pastors in large ministries. Just one quick example
Speaker 3: So in Georgia there are nine hundred thousand unregistered adults.
Speaker 3: Of that amount about forty two percent of what we
Speaker 3: call regular church attendees two or three times a month.
Speaker 3: So you've got three hundred and fifty thousand unregistered adults
Speaker 3: that are people of faith, regular church attendees. Our goal,
Speaker 3: my goal is to try to get out there and
Speaker 3: get these folks engaged in the process.
Speaker 1: Okay, rosk you real quick, Ross, can you put up
Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal or audio from earlier this week?
Speaker 1: I just it just clicked in my head. I want
Speaker 1: to ask Mark about this and put you can put
Speaker 1: up the long cut, not the short cut. Okay, all right,
Speaker 1: so he's going to do that. So here's where I
Speaker 1: want to start with you, Mark, because I have three
Speaker 1: kind of distinct things I want to get into. Two
Speaker 1: words started to permeate following what happened to Butler, pa
Speaker 1: And when you look and I'm sure you've seen the
Speaker 1: like the computer model of Trump's head and how it
Speaker 1: moves and his body repositions when he's addressing that graph,
Speaker 1: and you realize that literally at any other moment before that,
Speaker 1: this is a very different conversation that we're having and
Speaker 1: and so the bullet then passes, which thank you FBI
Speaker 1: for actually admitting that's that passes and hits his year.
Speaker 1: And the two words were divine intervention. Your your background
Speaker 1: is obviously within the faith, your pastor before you were congressman.
Speaker 1: And what do you when you see stuff like that,
Speaker 1: people go divine intervention?
Speaker 2: What do you?
Speaker 1: What do you think about that?
Speaker 3: I take about and if I can put my minister's
Speaker 3: hat on for for a moment, I know sometimes doesn't
Speaker 3: always sell well on media. But if I if I'm
Speaker 3: able to do so, I think I.
Speaker 2: Won't scream at you.
Speaker 3: It's okay, okay, Well, even if you did, it doesn't
Speaker 3: deter me. But on this I take of the scripture
Speaker 3: passage in James five seventeen. There's a verse there that
Speaker 3: captures really the essence of this. It says, the effectual,
Speaker 3: fervent prayer of a righteous man or righteous individual changes
Speaker 3: or avails much. And I'm not, and nor have I
Speaker 3: ever made the case that President Trump is the most
Speaker 3: righteous among us. We're told they are none righteous. But
Speaker 3: and I've had a chance to share my faith in
Speaker 3: the golf, even in the White House with President Trump
Speaker 3: one on one but when you have millions of Americans
Speaker 3: that are praying for President Trump's safety on an individual
Speaker 3: basis every single day of his life as a person
Speaker 3: of faith, I believe that when it says avails or
Speaker 3: changes much, I believe that does impact. And throughout our
Speaker 3: history we've seen America come together in prayer through different
Speaker 3: dark times or tragic times with with people who are
Speaker 3: believers and people of faith. So yeah, if you look
Speaker 3: at the computer module, the infantestimal odds of of what
Speaker 3: that might have been just a slight turn. And the
Speaker 3: more video, the more things that we see come out
Speaker 3: about this, Uh yeah, I don't I don't have any
Speaker 3: issue acknowledging that. I believe that this is something that
Speaker 3: that that at times God protects those of people that
Speaker 3: that that so many your lifting or praying about.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that doesn't because that's the push back. That's what
Speaker 1: people will say. They go, this is president two Corinthians,
Speaker 1: this is my favorite Bible verses, all of them. And
Speaker 1: to that point, it's not necessarily the individual, but perhaps
Speaker 1: what the individual represents is what you're saying and those
Speaker 1: surrounding the individual and what they believe.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I think if people are praying for you.
Speaker 3: There's so many different passages of scripture and throughout our Christianity,
Speaker 3: the history the two thousand years that Christ lived and
Speaker 3: died on the cross was burning rose again. We have
Speaker 3: so many different counts through prayer to God doing some amazing,
Speaker 3: miraculous works, to God's people coming to It's the most
Speaker 3: powerful weapon that we have as believers or as Christians.
Speaker 3: And I say that unshamedly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then you use the word weapons and now
Speaker 1: they can twist your words there. Do you think do
Speaker 1: you think and I've heard two people say this, now,
Speaker 1: do you think it changed Trump's perspective? I like and
Speaker 1: that maybe because like I, I've heard two people say
Speaker 1: that it made him more introspective of this and and
Speaker 1: perhaps perhaps his look. Trump is not churchgoer dude, okay,
Speaker 1: and I don't know that he's purported to be. But
Speaker 1: do you think that maybe something like that may cause
Speaker 1: a person to move towards that?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 1: And do you have you had opportunity to see if maybe,
Speaker 1: like how how Trump's processing that from a religious perspective?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I I And I wouldn't just quantify this around
Speaker 3: President Trump, but uh, having been involved in ministries many
Speaker 3: years growing up as I did. When someone has that
Speaker 3: near death experience or their life is almost taken away
Speaker 3: in a tragic situation, I believe that gives anybody, uh
Speaker 3: with any kind of level of rationale to sit there
Speaker 3: and pause and say, Okay, what what would have happened
Speaker 3: if that situation would have taken my life? Uh, specifically
Speaker 3: in regards to afterlife, is you know, is there the
Speaker 3: heaven and the hell that so many people believe or
Speaker 3: talk about. What I would I would have been there,
Speaker 3: I would have I would have been facing my creator
Speaker 3: seconds later? You know, what what is my life represent?
Speaker 3: Because you start thinking about a lot of this is
Speaker 3: how temporal and reorganizing priorities. And I do believe President
Speaker 3: Trump went there and and I think he did his
Speaker 3: best to articulate some of that as far as how
Speaker 3: he processed that, and especially those weeks leading afterwards or
Speaker 3: following afterwards.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and and and it's it's almost more for him
Speaker 1: because I mean Trump's ordered people killed. I mean, let's
Speaker 1: let's be real here, He's he has in in a way,
Speaker 1: he's ordered murders. That because that is that is something
Speaker 1: that the president has to do, whether it's the Austere
Speaker 1: scholar or any of the rest. He's the guy who
Speaker 1: gave the go even if he didn't do it, So
Speaker 1: then you have to process that on top of everything else.
Speaker 3: Well, not only that you're exactly right, but let me
Speaker 3: add to that. They know that with him coming back
Speaker 3: into an administration is that he does not play or
Speaker 3: Mint's words with the with these terrorists, he goes and
Speaker 3: kills them. So we knew, and it was published even
Speaker 3: in different press in print how much the Uranians are
Speaker 3: basically looking for him or looking for any opportunity to
Speaker 3: kill him to make sure that he is not or
Speaker 3: would try to prevent him from being the forty seventh
Speaker 3: president of the United States because he's not coming to
Speaker 3: the negotiating table with terrors. He's coming to say, look,
Speaker 3: my plan is to kill you if you harm Americans.
Speaker 1: I like that every Iranian bad dude right now is
Speaker 1: having to tear his bed apart to make sure there's
Speaker 1: not a bomb under it. I'm okay with you.
Speaker 3: Yes, you know it's not mutually exclusive to be a
Speaker 3: follower of Christ, but also throughout biblical history and other history,
Speaker 3: h to stand and defend our faith. That's that's that's
Speaker 3: the It may seem like a paradox that we're to
Speaker 3: love our neighbor, but we're also have the opportunity to
Speaker 3: protect our families, to protect our faith as we seem
Speaker 3: to up history.
Speaker 1: The Olympic opening ceremony. I have to know what you
Speaker 1: thought of that.
Speaker 3: It was repulsive, But I hope that people realize that
Speaker 3: this isn't just some crazy religious dudes that are saying,
Speaker 3: look what's coming, looks what looks? What's happening? I mean here,
Speaker 3: it is the world's largest stage. And even people that
Speaker 3: I know that would even consider themselves devout Christians understood
Speaker 3: this to be a huge mockery of anything that's that's
Speaker 3: historically religious. When you look at one of the Da Vincius,
Speaker 3: one of the most famous paintings of all time, depicting
Speaker 3: the Lord's Supper. Uh so, yeah, it was absolutely repulsive,
Speaker 3: but not surprised. And here's the thing. Try to keep
Speaker 3: this from being overwhelming with partisan But we have a
Speaker 3: democratic party that the bulk of the people that are
Speaker 3: in this party, that's what they represent. This is such
Speaker 3: a progressive mentality that they're okay with this. They're okay
Speaker 3: with the depicture of this they're okay with with somebody
Speaker 3: with X white chromosomes beating the crap out of a female.
Speaker 3: This is what they believe is progress, and that's why
Speaker 3: there's such a battle, what I believe is a spiritual
Speaker 3: battle for the very soul of this country.
Speaker 1: Yeah the uh and that that whole thing with the
Speaker 1: boxer too, because it's not as cut and dry as
Speaker 1: this is a man who wanted to one day say
Speaker 1: I am a woman.
Speaker 2: It is.
Speaker 1: It is a chromosomal thing, it's a testosterone thing, and
Speaker 1: and it's it's a sticky, wicked and frankly, I think
Speaker 1: that they should. There is an actual transgender boxer, I
Speaker 1: believe from Portugal, and I think maybe that's the hell
Speaker 1: to die on because that's a little more complex thing.
Speaker 1: But when you don't have, when you don't care about
Speaker 1: the religion, it's easy to mock it. And it was
Speaker 1: weird watching them try to deflect it while one of
Speaker 1: the participants is tweeting about this being the new gay Testament.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just well, and this is where I
Speaker 3: disagree with Elon Musk the other day when he tweeted
Speaker 3: out something, look, if Christians don't get involved or engaged,
Speaker 3: which has been Trump's message. In fact, he and I
Speaker 3: were talking about that earlier this year from frustration with
Speaker 3: the Christian folks not getting engaged politically, and they should.
Speaker 3: That's one of the reasons that I'm out there doing
Speaker 3: what I can. But when Elon Musk said, look, if
Speaker 3: they don't, then Christians, the Christianity is going to die.
Speaker 3: That's not true. I mean that there have been armies
Speaker 3: marched against the Kings, have tried to destroy it all
Speaker 3: throughout history. Christianity is not going to die. But in
Speaker 3: the public arena, Christians could have a much larger voice
Speaker 3: if they would get involved. We're told to pray for
Speaker 3: our rulers. If that's the case, let's get as believers
Speaker 3: and Christians, let's get involved in the political process. If
Speaker 3: they would, it would be a game changer, helping to
Speaker 3: push back a lot of this progressive ideology that's forced
Speaker 3: on our children, force on our families as we've seen
Speaker 3: these last few decades.
Speaker 1: Now, I'm going to play the full cut of this,
Speaker 1: because of course the cut that was being circled in
Speaker 1: the media had the final two seconds removed. And but
Speaker 1: it's a Trump thing, and Trump said it and then,
Speaker 1: of course they said that this was him telegraphing that
Speaker 1: he's going to do the Hitler dictator thing. Even though
Speaker 1: he didn't do it last time, he's going to do
Speaker 1: it this time for sure, for sure. But he's speaking
Speaker 1: to a group of Christians.
Speaker 3: Here.
Speaker 1: Here's the audio. I'm sure most of you have heard it. Christians,
Speaker 1: get out and vote, just this time.
Speaker 2: You won't have to do it anymore. Four more years.
Speaker 2: You know what, It'll be fixed. It'll be fine. You
Speaker 2: won't have to vote anymore, of my beautiful Christians. I
Speaker 2: love you Christians. I'm not Christian. I love you.
Speaker 3: Get out.
Speaker 2: You gotta get out and vote. In four years, you
Speaker 2: don't have to vote again. We'll have it fit so good,
Speaker 2: you're not gonna have to, all right.
Speaker 1: That last little line wasn't in there, by the way,
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's his delivery style. It's just so
Speaker 1: weird when he says my Christians, my lovely Christians. But whatever.
Speaker 2: What does he mean there?
Speaker 1: Obviously as it pertains to voting integrity, but also why
Speaker 1: would you say that tell them to vote every time?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Absolutely, And look you can't justify what he lays
Speaker 3: out on every different comment sometimes you know, you have
Speaker 3: to take the whole sum here and you look at
Speaker 3: his track record. What specifically, I think what he's trying
Speaker 3: to communicate is if by electing the Trump organization, in
Speaker 3: the Trump administration, specifically him, he'll be the one that
Speaker 3: gets out there and pushes back on the attacks of
Speaker 3: the left, all these agencies that used the target Christianity.
Speaker 3: He will rid that, he will root it out at
Speaker 3: the very gut and you can go to lead your
Speaker 3: lives without having to worry about it. It could be
Speaker 3: more that a little in our ful. Yeah, I'm not
Speaker 3: going to deny that it wasn't. But to his point,
Speaker 3: the Christians, and that's one of the reasons they support
Speaker 3: Trump in the droves that they do, is because he
Speaker 3: is the one that we'll talk about this. He's the
Speaker 3: only president in history to go after the United Nations
Speaker 3: and speak they're at the United Nations Council about the
Speaker 3: egregious attacks and the lack of religious liberty across these
Speaker 3: different countries. That's why the especially in the working class
Speaker 3: believers as a whole, look at President Trump, even with
Speaker 3: all the different things that are that throughout his history
Speaker 3: that would not match up with what we're taught as Christians.
Speaker 3: They know that he is the warrior that will get
Speaker 3: out there and allow their families and allow their beliefs,
Speaker 3: allow them to worship in the way that they believe
Speaker 3: they should. That's the point that I think he's trying
Speaker 3: to drive it home. And when you're in a light setting,
Speaker 3: sometimes it's not always said correctly, but his heart is
Speaker 3: to get out there and make sure that these families
Speaker 3: have the religious liberty allowed to raise the families that
Speaker 3: they would like to do.
Speaker 1: So, I know you're not super familiar with that. By
Speaker 1: the way, we're chatting with Mark Walker Faith Outreach d NC.
Speaker 1: That's the DNC. Excuse me, R got to go with
Speaker 1: the R.
Speaker 3: I'd be a missionary if that was the case.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, I hear you.
Speaker 1: So there's a story out and you want to talk
Speaker 1: you want to talk about just this. This is the
Speaker 1: kind of stuff that I just JD and Brittany Lot
Speaker 1: are a couple. They're two military veterans from Texas. To
Speaker 1: get eight kids, they do a social media thing. They
Speaker 1: go camping a lot and and a a group of
Speaker 1: people who it is literally a group to target fundamentalist
Speaker 1: Christians on Reddit and They did what is essentially a swatting.
Speaker 1: They mass reported this family, who I don't know. I
Speaker 1: watched some of their videos. It's wholesome stuff, and it's
Speaker 1: not even preachy stuff. They mastered porting under the Children
Speaker 1: and Family Services of Florida, and their life got literally
Speaker 1: spun upside down. They were demanding they pull over on
Speaker 1: the side of the road so somebody could come. They
Speaker 1: went to a hospital. It was a whole thing. Ron
Speaker 1: DeSantis has addressed this now, and I only have about
Speaker 1: a minute. What do you think of stuff like this
Speaker 1: and how do you balance wanting to protect kids with this.
Speaker 3: This is horrible, Yeah, it is horrible, but it goes
Speaker 3: to show you the left they play hardball. If you
Speaker 3: don't adhere or if you're not part of this progressive movement,
Speaker 3: you are going to be in the crossfairs. I know
Speaker 3: a little bit about this family. I know they are
Speaker 3: Christian family and they kind of do things differently traveling
Speaker 3: the country, homeschool and their kids and things. But in
Speaker 3: America they have every right to be able to do so.
Speaker 3: But if it doesn't fit the normal lift, if you
Speaker 3: don't have them being indoctrinated in some teacher union supported
Speaker 3: public education arena. It's offensive these folks.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sorry to cut you out there, but we
Speaker 1: got a role. I really appreciate the time there. And
Speaker 1: let's have you back in your official capacity a little
Speaker 1: more often.
Speaker 2: Okay, Mark, we'll do it.
Speaker 3: Katie, thank you so much.
Speaker 1: All right, and we will take a break, be right back.
Speaker 1: Hang on.
