WEBVTT 1 00:00:08.599 --> 00:00:09.640 Five o five. 2 00:00:11.240 --> 00:00:44.799 If if you've I k r C the talk station. 3 00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:33.719 I'm a great grandfather. 4 00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:39.719 Oh great, you can all celebrate Joe Biden's great grandfather. 5 00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:42.520 Now he's didn't take any questions with me briefing with 6 00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:45.840 Gavin News from the other day about the raging inferno 7 00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:48.520 that is the California wildfire is going on right now. 8 00:00:48.560 --> 00:00:50.840 It just keeps getting worse and worse and worse by 9 00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:55.119 the minute. I'm sure you're right, Joe observes, I think accurately, 10 00:00:55.560 --> 00:00:58.520 he probably doesn't even know what's going on. Could he's 11 00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:00.960 standing right next to the fire and not really fully 12 00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:04.959 appreciate the gravity of the situation. And wow, wow, Well 13 00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:06.439 we'll get to that, man. I've got quite a few 14 00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:10.040 updates to talk about on that. As always, I love 15 00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:14.879 hearing from you, so feel free to direct the nature 16 00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:17.439 of the conversation five one, three, seven, four nine fifty 17 00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:19.719 five hundred, eight hundred eighty two three talk found five 18 00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:22.120 fifty on AT and T phone, always bearing in mind 19 00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:25.319 this isn't the Overnight Show, so don't come about sasquatch 20 00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:30.719 or I don't know, lizard people. What else should we 21 00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:37.760 add to the list Joe stupid theories that is so broad. 22 00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:40.799 I think you're gonna have to put a little bit 23 00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:45.920 more flesh on the bones of stupid theories that say concept. However, 24 00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:49.719 you're welcome to call the Morning Show, and I do appreciate. 25 00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:51.480 You're also welcome to stop by fifty five KRCY dot 26 00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:54.680 com when you can't listen live, Judge Ennenapaulatony, I say 27 00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:58.200 Congressman Thomas Massey explaining why he wasn't in favor of 28 00:01:58.280 --> 00:02:01.879 the Speaker, and you know, I understand the difference between 29 00:02:01.959 --> 00:02:05.079 Omnibus and reconciliation. He did a great job breaking it 30 00:02:05.120 --> 00:02:07.959 all down, but he certainly didn't leave me with any optimism. 31 00:02:10.039 --> 00:02:13.639 I did plead with him to out the Republicans. You know, 32 00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:16.000 the Democrats are going to try to shove everything they 33 00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:19.599 possibly can into the Omnibus. That's what they do in 34 00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:23.759 return for some you know, a military industrial complex state 35 00:02:24.199 --> 00:02:28.400 Republican demanding that we continue to manufacture stuff we don't need. 36 00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:31.680 Why because well, there's jobs in my state that you know, 37 00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:37.400 depend upon us continuing to manufacture outdated, unnecessary military hardware. 38 00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:40.280 You give the Republican in that state what he or 39 00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:42.879 she wants, and then the Democrats get what they want 40 00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:49.879 welcome to omnibus what chapter or version five point zero 41 00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:51.879 or ten point zero or whatever it is to we 42 00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:56.080 talked about the twelve appropriation bills that they're supposed to do. 43 00:02:56.759 --> 00:02:59.759 Congress MESSI said, no, it's not a snowball's chance in 44 00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:03.680 hell that's going to happen. So I requested, and I 45 00:03:03.719 --> 00:03:07.759 was very adamant about this, please name names out. These 46 00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:10.520 Republicans come out because this goes on behind the scenes 47 00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:15.240 the whole quote unquote sausage making process of legislation, most 48 00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:17.560 notably when they're not doing their jobs and breaking it 49 00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:20.120 down to the twelve appropriation bills are supposed to do. 50 00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:23.520 They get the moon, the stars, and everything else shoved 51 00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:27.240 into an omnibus bill in order to get the votes 52 00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:30.960 to pass it. Everybody gets a slice of the pie, 53 00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:32.759 and that slice of the pie is putting us further 54 00:03:32.800 --> 00:03:40.199 and further in existential peril. Got to get a handle 55 00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:44.439 on spending. Elon Musk said the other day the doge 56 00:03:44.520 --> 00:03:48.240 goal the Department Government of Efficiency that he and vied 57 00:03:48.280 --> 00:03:50.919 A Gramaswarmi are in charge of on their own, with 58 00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:54.840 no salary, no pay, no formal titles, just doing their jobs. 59 00:03:55.639 --> 00:03:59.919 You know, citizens trying to help out. So the goal 60 00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:02.319 to cut two trillion in spending. They're going to start 61 00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:06.639 there best case scenarios two trillion, And I'm not that optimistic, 62 00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:10.159 he said, Well, you know, I mean, I'm summarizing or 63 00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:13.479 sort of interpreting what he was suggesting. We're gonna try 64 00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:17.680 to shoot to cut two trillion. We may get one trillion. 65 00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:20.439 Now I'll take five hundred billion. But if you can 66 00:04:20.439 --> 00:04:22.319 get a trillion cut out of the federal government, that 67 00:04:22.319 --> 00:04:28.279 at least cuts in half the overspending that our government 68 00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:30.720 engages in, at least in terms of the Congressional Budget 69 00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:32.600 Office figures, which said we're going to continue on a 70 00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:37.399 spending path of two point one trillion dollars extra be debt, 71 00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:40.759 upon which we have to pay debt service every blanket 72 00:04:40.839 --> 00:04:44.399 year from now until the next decade, and of course beyond. 73 00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:47.720 As I've been pointing out, the CBO only calculates out 74 00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:52.360 ten years for reasons unknown to me. That is a 75 00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:57.600 endless cycle of sinking us further and further and further 76 00:04:57.759 --> 00:05:01.120 in debt. And I know I've been on this since 77 00:05:01.160 --> 00:05:06.279 I've been on the Morning show. It is my nineteenth 78 00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:10.040 year in radio. It's only gotten worse every year. Thank 79 00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:14.480 you to our Republican and Democrat elected officials. I'm praying 80 00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:16.680 to God we have some hope here in terms of 81 00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:20.600 this next administration and Musk and Ramas swimming, whoever else 82 00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:23.120 wants to join in the fight to cut back the 83 00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:27.240 ridiculous spending that's going on in Washington, DC. All right, 84 00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:29.160 got that out of my system. Thank you. Everybody should 85 00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:30.920 have listened to lunch yesterday. Had a real nice time. 86 00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:34.560 Redwood Brewer is really happy that we showed up. And 87 00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:37.720 the guy's a manager there. He came over afterwards he goes, Oh, 88 00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:40.279 you guys are great, nicest group of people. He said, 89 00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:43.160 if you ever ever ever want to come back, if 90 00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:45.879 you have a cancelation, like some restaurant that you're supposed 91 00:05:45.879 --> 00:05:47.759 to go to, camp manage it or whatever, you are 92 00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:51.720 welcome here at the Brentwood brew Hub. So I had 93 00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:53.839 a couple of nice choice bears, had a great time, 94 00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:57.680 got to meet some wonderful people, and my son Jerry 95 00:05:57.720 --> 00:06:00.319 came along with me. And I just have to this 96 00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:02.600 out to put it up my Facebook post. I've been 97 00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:04.959 I always play a game of cribbage with cribbage Mike 98 00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:07.879 my submarine or friend and normally I lose. I've been 99 00:06:07.920 --> 00:06:11.439 acknowledging that. So we played three man cribbage. I had 100 00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:13.680 never played cribbage three people before, so it was my 101 00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:15.959 first experience with that. And my son Jerry, who I 102 00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:18.399 taught how to play cribbage, played along. And at the 103 00:06:18.439 --> 00:06:20.319 outset of the game, I looked at Mike I said, 104 00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:22.879 you know, Jerry's probably gonna win. Guess what. Jerry won. 105 00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:27.800 But I came in second, So Mike, sorry, he came 106 00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:30.160 in third. Sucks to the YOUU. But I was proud 107 00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:32.319 of my son. He did win. And if you're friends 108 00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:33.959 with me on Facebook, you can see the picture of 109 00:06:33.959 --> 00:06:37.319 the group Mike, his beautiful wife Cindy, and my son 110 00:06:37.399 --> 00:06:41.240 and me, plus Mike had his cribbage Mike's sweatshirt on 111 00:06:41.319 --> 00:06:43.160 his wife had made for him for his birth there 112 00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:48.199 for Christmas last year. Anyway, onto the chaotic realities of 113 00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:52.360 what's going on in California. And there's a million places 114 00:06:52.360 --> 00:06:55.360 you could go on this, but let's start with the 115 00:06:55.480 --> 00:07:01.839 water system. They don't have any water. Santa Ana. Winds 116 00:07:01.879 --> 00:07:03.920 are blowing seventy to one hundred miles an hour, which 117 00:07:03.920 --> 00:07:07.959 prevents the aircraft from flying successfully. All the time. Now, 118 00:07:07.959 --> 00:07:10.399 they did have a bunch of helicopters that drop water 119 00:07:10.439 --> 00:07:12.839 that they have some airplanes that drop water, not enough 120 00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:15.560 to keep up with it, and those aircraft struggle to 121 00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:17.360 fly when the gusts win are going up to one 122 00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:19.560 hundred miles an hour. So what do you do? You 123 00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:20.680 use the fire hydrants? 124 00:07:20.759 --> 00:07:20.879 Right? 125 00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:28.399 Well, not really, not really, because they pretty much ran 126 00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:33.879 out of pressure. Turning to Gavin Newsom, the governor of 127 00:07:33.879 --> 00:07:35.920 the state, someone who should be in a position to 128 00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:38.040 know what the hell's going on, at least fake it, 129 00:07:38.360 --> 00:07:41.480 not so much. He was on CNN's act AC three 130 00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:45.519 sixty with Anderson Cooper. A quote, Cooper says, what is 131 00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:50.560 the situation with the water? Obviously in the Palisades, that'd 132 00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:53.319 be the Palisades fire that's raging out of control, zero 133 00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:56.199 percent contained. I think it still this morning. There's only 134 00:07:56.279 --> 00:07:58.600 one of the fires that has any containment at all, 135 00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:03.439 and it's only ten percent. Obviously it's in the Palisades. 136 00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:07.480 It ran out last night. The water Anderson Cooper's referring to, 137 00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:12.240 I was talking to the firefighter on this block. They left. 138 00:08:12.600 --> 00:08:20.160 They left because there was no water in the hydrant here. Now, 139 00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:24.560 paint themental picture of that. Your house is on fire, 140 00:08:25.720 --> 00:08:29.279 there's a hydrant right there, there's a fire truck right there, 141 00:08:29.279 --> 00:08:32.320 there are firefighters right there. They get in their truck 142 00:08:32.840 --> 00:08:42.559 and they drive away because there's no water. Newsom's response ready. 143 00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:46.840 The local folks are trying to figure that out. When 144 00:08:46.840 --> 00:08:49.399 you have a system that is not dissimilar to what 145 00:08:49.440 --> 00:08:53.600 we've seen in other extraordinarily large scale fires, whether it 146 00:08:53.600 --> 00:08:57.960 be pipe electricity or whether it just be the complete 147 00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:02.000 overwhelm of the system. Those hydrants are typical for two 148 00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:05.320 or three fires, maybe one fire. You have something at 149 00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:09.440 this scale, but again that's going to be determined by 150 00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:11.879 the local authorities. Close quote. Can you make any sense 151 00:09:11.919 --> 00:09:14.399 out of that? I mean to a certain extent, I 152 00:09:14.399 --> 00:09:16.559 mean I get some measure of the point. You know, 153 00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:19.000 the hydrant is designed to help put out fires in 154 00:09:19.120 --> 00:09:22.480 like a neighborhood fire, a house or two. I don't 155 00:09:22.480 --> 00:09:24.000 get where he was going with the rest of the 156 00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:27.879 psychobabble that was coming out of his mouth. He also 157 00:09:27.919 --> 00:09:30.559 pointed out the waters being brought in from other areas 158 00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:34.759 that are and there are aerial assets up, but as 159 00:09:34.759 --> 00:09:36.679 I just pointed out, they're not up all the time 160 00:09:36.720 --> 00:09:38.919 because the winds are so strong you can't fly the 161 00:09:38.960 --> 00:09:42.360 aircraft there. Maybe I hurt. Media aviation expert Jay Ratliff 162 00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:45.120 can address that situation. He'll be on at eight thirty today, 163 00:09:45.399 --> 00:09:48.639 looking forward to another great conversation with Dre at eight thirty, 164 00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:50.080 got of the guest lined up Toi'll give you the 165 00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:55.480 rundown momentarily so and so far. Further comments about the 166 00:09:55.519 --> 00:09:59.480 water system, LA Department of Water Power, Water and Power 167 00:09:59.559 --> 00:10:05.120 CEO and Chief Entered Engineer at Jennie Kenyonis said teams 168 00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:09.879 have struggled to maintain water pressure on the system. She 169 00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:13.559 noted that in Palisades again, that's what Anderson Cooper was 170 00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:16.480 asking the governor about, where water pressure for fire hydrants 171 00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:23.000 is fed by three water tanks, each containing one million gallons. 172 00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:27.919 Those tanks ran out of water three o'clock yesterday morning, 173 00:10:31.720 --> 00:10:39.440 ran out. Los Angeles Caddy Fire Department Captain Sheila Keeler 174 00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:44.480 bearco it's an interesting all these fire departments are run 175 00:10:44.519 --> 00:10:49.000 by female chiefs, and not that I don't think they're capable. 176 00:10:49.080 --> 00:10:51.720 It's just a rather interesting phenomenon that's unfolding here. Anyway, 177 00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:53.919 the strain that the fire has put on the water 178 00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:56.639 system in the hydrants. They're just not designed for that 179 00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:59.279 type of usage all at once for fifteen hours straight. 180 00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:07.480 La City Fire Chief Kristen Crowley HMM noted that the 181 00:11:07.639 --> 00:11:09.720 firefighters do have the ability to draw from other water 182 00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:13.960 sources beyond the hydrants. Our apparatus does have the ability 183 00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:17.679 to water draw water if we need to water pools, ponds, 184 00:11:17.720 --> 00:11:20.879 and any type of water resource. So I guess the 185 00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:23.399 truck pulls up, sucks the water out of a local 186 00:11:23.399 --> 00:11:26.639 swimming pool, and then dumps it onto a fire. Not 187 00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:30.200 exactly the most efficient mechanism of getting water to a fire, 188 00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:32.240 I will point out, at least that seems that way 189 00:11:32.279 --> 00:11:34.480 for me. But if that's all you got, that's what 190 00:11:34.519 --> 00:11:38.279 you gotta go with. But the problem here is an 191 00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:42.320 obvious one. With the winds blowing as intensely as they 192 00:11:42.360 --> 00:11:45.919 are and as large as these fires are, you get 193 00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:48.279 have all the fire trucks in the world down there, 194 00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:50.600 but if they don't have a sufficient water supply, you 195 00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:53.159 just stand around and watch the place burn to the ground, 196 00:11:53.240 --> 00:12:02.000 don't you. Chief canyonis dressed the need for California residents 197 00:12:02.039 --> 00:12:07.120 to pull together. Quote. If there's a message you take 198 00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:09.519 away from me today is I need our customers to 199 00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:13.399 really conserve water, not just in the Palisades area, but 200 00:12:13.399 --> 00:12:15.960 the whole system, because the fire department needs the water 201 00:12:15.960 --> 00:12:20.519 to fight the fires. True. And then add on top 202 00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:28.000 of that, the officials were warning resonance of one danger 203 00:12:28.039 --> 00:12:31.440 that may come because of this low water pressure in 204 00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:34.480 the system. You know, we all need water to live, thrive, 205 00:12:34.519 --> 00:12:37.600 and survive. It's the most important thing to live. You 206 00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:41.240 can only go a few days without pottable water and 207 00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:42.879 after that, you know, I mean, you can go a 208 00:12:42.879 --> 00:12:48.159 long time without food, but you need water. Well. Now, 209 00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:52.440 they're concerned because of the low water pressure bacterial growth, 210 00:12:55.240 --> 00:12:58.720 so they have issued a boil water notice for the 211 00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:02.600 Pacific Palaces in nearby communities. I don't mean I'm sorry. 212 00:13:02.600 --> 00:13:05.200 I chuckle when I read that they're in the middle 213 00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:09.639 of an inferno. Boil your water. Well, at least it 214 00:13:09.639 --> 00:13:11.679 makes it easy to get the water boiled. Just guess, 215 00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:17.240 take it out in your backyard. Unbelievable situation. Oh and 216 00:13:17.279 --> 00:13:20.399 we'll get back. And by the way, there's also no electricity. 217 00:13:21.919 --> 00:13:24.200 Five eighteen fifty five krc DE talk station be right 218 00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:34.120 back the obligatory California wildfire bumper music. 219 00:13:36.960 --> 00:13:59.120 I love this song by the way, Chuck down. 220 00:14:02.279 --> 00:14:48.039 Dream and. 221 00:14:27.519 --> 00:14:30.559 Craig Line, even the stars are ilities and seeing all 222 00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:34.320 these reports about movie stars houses burning down and interviews 223 00:14:34.399 --> 00:14:41.200 with them, and you know, Joe, that's the direction I 224 00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:44.759 was going. And I don't I don't wish anyone ill will, 225 00:14:47.759 --> 00:14:51.240 but something tells me they probably were able to afford 226 00:14:51.399 --> 00:14:56.240 insurance to the extent and is available out there anyhow, well, 227 00:14:56.360 --> 00:14:59.519 or move to another home they probably own elsewhere. Joe said, well, 228 00:14:59.559 --> 00:15:02.639 they could build another residence, but I imagine they also have, 229 00:15:02.759 --> 00:15:05.960 you know, summer homes and winter homes and all those 230 00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:08.360 other things that the vast majority of America sort of 231 00:15:08.440 --> 00:15:14.320 just dreams about. Five and two three Talk Found five 232 00:15:14.360 --> 00:15:16.480 fifty on AT and T phone Live from New Hampshire, 233 00:15:16.519 --> 00:15:18.360 New Hampshire, Gary, Welcome back to the Morning show. 234 00:15:19.320 --> 00:15:21.480 Oh I'm going to have fun with this one either 235 00:15:21.840 --> 00:15:25.759 my mind racing. It's just it's such a juicy target. 236 00:15:26.399 --> 00:15:30.879 I'm thinking, let him go to Gary, just let him go. 237 00:15:31.919 --> 00:15:34.919 Okay, here we go. First of all, they cut twenty 238 00:15:34.919 --> 00:15:36.559 one million dollars out of. 239 00:15:36.519 --> 00:15:41.000 The budget, the fire department budget. Yeah, I've got those stats. 240 00:15:41.279 --> 00:15:43.559 I was going to get to those, but you're right. Yeah, 241 00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:45.639 they cut a sizeable chunk out of the out of 242 00:15:45.679 --> 00:15:47.320 the out of the firefighting budget. Go ahead. 243 00:15:48.279 --> 00:15:52.399 Second of all, they diverted that twenty three million dollars 244 00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:57.799 to twenty one million dollars to the immigrants, illegal immigrants 245 00:15:57.879 --> 00:16:01.519 or the Assai LEAs as they like to them. So 246 00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:04.240 there goes their money there. Second of all, they also 247 00:16:04.440 --> 00:16:08.320 supported Ukraine fire departments, So while they were cutting their 248 00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:13.000 fire department, they were supporting fire departments in Ukraine with 249 00:16:13.039 --> 00:16:14.159 all their federal funding. 250 00:16:14.399 --> 00:16:17.559 That's great. And then third of all, they were. 251 00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:23.080 Cutting their water and diverting it for the smelt fish 252 00:16:23.200 --> 00:16:27.759 so that they couldn't keep their reservoirs filled. Now, let 253 00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:31.600 me get this, and they refuse to collect the dead 254 00:16:31.639 --> 00:16:35.480 wood for decades right now, it's going on decades now 255 00:16:35.879 --> 00:16:38.120 now that it's all burned, and I'm going to take 256 00:16:38.159 --> 00:16:40.960 a guess, in about another three months, it's going to 257 00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:43.919 be spring, and everybody's going to be complaining about the 258 00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:52.399 landslides because all the vegetation has been burned off. Nothing's 259 00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:54.639 going to support those hills and they're going to become 260 00:16:54.879 --> 00:16:59.120 sliding down on all these houses. All this is predictable. 261 00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:03.399 Happens there year or it happens every ten years or whatever, 262 00:17:03.919 --> 00:17:07.680 and this is all predictable, and yet nobody does anything. 263 00:17:07.960 --> 00:17:10.359 And yet they're going to ask the people of New 264 00:17:10.359 --> 00:17:13.400 Hampshire and Ohio and Kentucky to chip in with federal 265 00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:18.519 FEMA money. Meanwhile, everybody in North Carolina, South Carolina and 266 00:17:18.519 --> 00:17:23.400 Tennessee that suffered that earthquake are living in tents. And 267 00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:26.480 I bet that they don't get taken care of half 268 00:17:26.519 --> 00:17:30.119 as much as they do the millionaires and billionaires. Okay, 269 00:17:30.119 --> 00:17:32.039 I'm going to sound like a Democrat on that one, 270 00:17:32.480 --> 00:17:35.559 but you know that they're going to take care of 271 00:17:35.599 --> 00:17:38.799 their people, you know. And this is just part of 272 00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:44.680 the wrongness of equity. This is not equality, and it's 273 00:17:44.839 --> 00:17:50.839 just disgusting, it really is. And if I remember, right, 274 00:17:50.960 --> 00:17:52.920 just a couple of years, we can argue with that. 275 00:17:54.279 --> 00:17:56.920 Just a couple of years ago, were they not saying 276 00:17:57.039 --> 00:18:00.160 California was a democratic model that they wanted to the 277 00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:02.799 rest of the country go in, if you remember, they 278 00:18:02.839 --> 00:18:08.519 were absolutely squawking that, of course, so and again everybody 279 00:18:08.519 --> 00:18:10.759 can see it. It's right there out in the open, 280 00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:15.119 absolute total chaos. 281 00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:18.480 Well, I will agree with the yeah. I mean, now, 282 00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:20.240 who could argue with that? Joe played the sound by 283 00:18:20.240 --> 00:18:22.319 I don't need to repeat it, but it just did. Anyway, 284 00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:26.640 appreciate the observations, Gary, I think you are well dead 285 00:18:26.680 --> 00:18:30.920 on take care of yourself, Democrats, take carry yourself, my friend. 286 00:18:31.039 --> 00:18:34.200 Oh there's Tom, I miss Tom five twenty six.

So 289 00:18:39.359 --> 00:18:42.119 a call you definitely need to make lower your monthly 290 00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:44.880 payment for medical insurance and get better medical coverage with cover. 291 00:18:44.920 --> 00:18:47.359 Since he John Rowman and the team and you know, 292 00:18:47.400 --> 00:18:49.359 tune into the program on Sunday.

They've improved the business's bottom line by 297 00:19:06.680 --> 00:19:10.640 tens of thousands of dollars while the employees are paying 298 00:19:10.759 --> 00:19:13.400 less for their own medical coverage. And everybody's got to 299 00:19:13.400 --> 00:19:16.279 pay a slice of the pie, and businesses quite often 300 00:19:16.319 --> 00:19:18.680 will cover a part of the benefit. So you're saving 301 00:19:18.680 --> 00:19:21.240 the business money, you're saving the employees' money, but you're 302 00:19:21.279 --> 00:19:24.920 also getting better medical coverage.

He talked about 369 00:22:49.119 --> 00:22:52.559 how wonderful all the listeners were and he's welcoming us 370 00:22:52.640 --> 00:22:55.440 anytime we want. He goes, this was such such a 371 00:22:55.480 --> 00:22:57.960 great thing to have, you know, the group show up 372 00:22:57.960 --> 00:23:00.279 on a Wednesday, and a normal Wednesday at that place 373 00:23:00.359 --> 00:23:02.880 probably wouldn't have had that many people in it because 374 00:23:02.880 --> 00:23:05.319 it's you know, brew pub, who's sitting around drinking beer 375 00:23:05.319 --> 00:23:08.519 at noon on a Wednesday. So but big thumbs up 376 00:23:08.519 --> 00:23:11.720 across the board. The menu wasn't as expansive as I 377 00:23:11.759 --> 00:23:13.920 was led to believe by the website, but that didn't 378 00:23:13.920 --> 00:23:16.400 bother me. And if you go to brew pub, folks, 379 00:23:16.599 --> 00:23:20.720 you go to the Brentwood brew Pub, get the spicy vegetables. 380 00:23:20.799 --> 00:23:23.960 That stuff was amazing. Was kind of like an Asian 381 00:23:24.039 --> 00:23:27.519 vinigarette with hallapenians and carrots and onions and peppers and 382 00:23:27.920 --> 00:23:30.319 oh my god, it tasted so good. 383 00:23:30.599 --> 00:23:32.960 Anyway, well, I know that's the charter that you have 384 00:23:33.079 --> 00:23:35.920 for listener lunch, because clearly when he did come over, 385 00:23:36.039 --> 00:23:39.720 you could tell that was honest appreciation for what you 386 00:23:39.799 --> 00:23:41.759 did to get those people out there, and the other 387 00:23:42.160 --> 00:23:44.240 tenant of listener at lunch, which I like, I would 388 00:23:44.240 --> 00:23:46.440 have never probably gone over there to that side of 389 00:23:46.480 --> 00:23:49.119 town and to eat at that location. And we've been 390 00:23:49.160 --> 00:23:51.599 the four or five you know, through listener lunch that 391 00:23:52.240 --> 00:23:54.759 able to sample you know what greater Cincinnati has. 392 00:23:54.599 --> 00:23:56.599 To offer, and you know what, I'm exact, I feel 393 00:23:56.640 --> 00:23:58.279 exactly the same way as you. That's why I always 394 00:23:58.319 --> 00:24:01.279 kind of the emphasis on local joint. It's local, local, 395 00:24:01.400 --> 00:24:04.039 no chains. I mean, we rarely have ever gone to 396 00:24:04.119 --> 00:24:05.960 a chain. I know there's been exceptions to that, but 397 00:24:06.359 --> 00:24:08.559 I like I feel the same way because I don't 398 00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:10.359 know that I ever would have ended up at the 399 00:24:10.400 --> 00:24:13.920 Brentwood brewphub by way of just random like, hey, where 400 00:24:13.920 --> 00:24:15.599 do you want to go to dinner tonight? So it 401 00:24:15.640 --> 00:24:18.480 gives me the opportunity sample places all over town as well. 402 00:24:18.759 --> 00:24:21.119 We're going to be at Miami Brewery the next one. 403 00:24:21.119 --> 00:24:23.920 That's the one in Milford right there at Route fifty 404 00:24:24.160 --> 00:24:26.960 and twenty eight, So plan on putting that down in 405 00:24:27.000 --> 00:24:29.039 your list. That's a great spot too. They've treated as 406 00:24:29.079 --> 00:24:31.279 well over the few times we've been there. 407 00:24:32.119 --> 00:24:34.799 Yes, sir, and would today being the state funeral for 408 00:24:35.440 --> 00:24:37.720 our thirty ninth president, I like to give tribute to 409 00:24:38.079 --> 00:24:41.880 President Jimmy Carter. He was actually the first presidential election 410 00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:44.519 I was able to vote for. I did vote for 411 00:24:44.599 --> 00:24:48.519 Jerry Ford, but coming off a watergate, I was not surprised, 412 00:24:48.559 --> 00:24:50.240 you know, anybody with a D next to her name, 413 00:24:50.319 --> 00:24:53.319 especially being an outsider. Yeah, no, but I just happened 414 00:24:53.319 --> 00:24:56.359 to google it while I wasn't waiting, and I didn't 415 00:24:56.359 --> 00:24:58.359 realize it was even that close. It was two ninety 416 00:24:58.359 --> 00:25:02.240 seven to two forty in electoral cow So. But a 417 00:25:02.240 --> 00:25:04.559 little known but true fact that some of them, I 418 00:25:04.559 --> 00:25:06.440 think a lot of people know. He served in the Navy. 419 00:25:06.839 --> 00:25:09.839 He is the first president to actually graduate from the 420 00:25:10.119 --> 00:25:14.720 Naval Academy with distinction less and after two years he 421 00:25:14.759 --> 00:25:16.759 saw the air of his ways and he shifted to 422 00:25:16.759 --> 00:25:20.880 the submarine force, and he actually served the board a 423 00:25:20.920 --> 00:25:26.319 diesel submarine. But obviously an incredible intellect, because if anybody 424 00:25:26.359 --> 00:25:30.240 knows anything about nuclear submarines, Admiral Hyman Rickover is the 425 00:25:30.240 --> 00:25:34.000 godfather of the nuclear submarine age, and back in the 426 00:25:34.039 --> 00:25:36.599 early fifties when he was trying to convince admirals and 427 00:25:36.640 --> 00:25:39.640 senators to go down this road. It took somebody like 428 00:25:39.680 --> 00:25:43.000 Admiral Rickover to do it. Jimmy Carter was hand picked. 429 00:25:43.039 --> 00:25:45.480 He was going to be the engineering the chief engineer 430 00:25:45.480 --> 00:25:49.039 aboard the second nuclear submarine when Jimmy Carter's father passed away. 431 00:25:49.480 --> 00:25:52.160 So that's why he resigned his commission and went back 432 00:25:52.200 --> 00:25:54.920 to Plains, Georgia and the rest is history. But the 433 00:25:55.000 --> 00:25:59.240 Navy thankful of his service. One of the highest funders 434 00:25:59.240 --> 00:26:01.240 you can get, obviously, is to get a ship named 435 00:26:01.279 --> 00:26:05.319 after him, and the Navy named the Fast Attack Submarine 436 00:26:05.400 --> 00:26:07.880 USS Jimmy Carter back in two thousand and five. And 437 00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:10.880 what's unique about the Carter. The Navy has always had 438 00:26:10.920 --> 00:26:14.519 submarines and I'm using air quotes that do special missions. 439 00:26:15.440 --> 00:26:18.440 Jimmy Carter was the first one built from the keel up. 440 00:26:18.880 --> 00:26:21.359 And to use your quote you talk about bad assery, 441 00:26:21.599 --> 00:26:24.920 that is the USS Jimmy Carter. So Jimmy Carter's name 442 00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:27.480 will be going on probably for another twenty thirty years, 443 00:26:27.880 --> 00:26:30.920 doing tremendous work for this country in our defense. 444 00:26:30.920 --> 00:26:35.519 Powered by a nuclear nuclear power, which you know. 445 00:26:36.079 --> 00:26:39.200 And again, so that was nineteen fifty three. So once again, 446 00:26:39.200 --> 00:26:41.440 and I like bringing this up when you talk about 447 00:26:41.480 --> 00:26:43.119 the Green New Deal and stuff and why don't we 448 00:26:43.240 --> 00:26:46.480 use nuclear power? So now that is seventy two years 449 00:26:46.759 --> 00:26:50.160 of eighteen to twenty five year olds operating nuclear reactors 450 00:26:50.200 --> 00:26:51.680 with not one incident. 451 00:26:52.359 --> 00:26:55.400 I love the exclamation point we can put on that statement, Mike, 452 00:26:55.480 --> 00:26:58.319 that is awesome. And you know what, props to Jimmy Carter. 453 00:26:58.400 --> 00:26:59.759 I had you know, these are facts that I had 454 00:26:59.839 --> 00:27:03.440 known idea about. So I'm usually a person who will 455 00:27:03.440 --> 00:27:09.279 not speak positively about Jimmy Carter, having recalled the stagflation 456 00:27:09.519 --> 00:27:13.240 years of the Carter administration and he was seemingly ineffective 457 00:27:13.440 --> 00:27:16.599 nature of his presidency. I will give him props for 458 00:27:16.599 --> 00:27:18.519 everything you just pointed out. And I'm glad you pointed 459 00:27:18.559 --> 00:27:20.759 him out. So he's moved up a notch in my 460 00:27:20.839 --> 00:27:24.160 book thanks to your comments today, Mike. Great seeing yesterday. 461 00:27:24.200 --> 00:27:28.359 I really enjoyed our conversation as always, and we'll do 462 00:27:28.400 --> 00:27:31.160 it again next month. Take care of my friend already 463 00:27:31.160 --> 00:27:33.359 on the calendar. You stay well Man five point thirty 464 00:27:33.400 --> 00:27:36.359 seven fifty five krc DE Talk station. Get in touch 465 00:27:36.400 --> 00:27:39.200 with Jimmy Care Fireplaces though like to use Timmy Care 466 00:27:39.240 --> 00:27:41.640 Fireplace and stow spots as an opportunity to remind you 467 00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:46.279 you know what's coming. Get a carbon monoxide detector, a 468 00:27:46.400 --> 00:27:50.359 true life saver, the best twenty I guess twenty bucks 469 00:27:50.480 --> 00:27:54.039 or whatever they cost that you can spend. Carbon monoxide 470 00:27:54.119 --> 00:27:59.160 is the silent scentseless, deadly killer, and it's one of 471 00:27:59.160 --> 00:28:01.680 the reasons you need your fireplace, your free standing stove 472 00:28:01.799 --> 00:28:05.000 inspected by the chimney, Cara fireplace and stove you get 473 00:28:05.039 --> 00:28:07.480 have a carbon monoxide problem, that chimney gets backed up. 474 00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:09.519 Maybe a squirrel built a nest up there. You got 475 00:28:09.519 --> 00:28:12.920 some problem. This is what they're all about. Servicing, maintaining, 476 00:28:13.119 --> 00:28:17.000 literally doing everything related to stoves, fireplaces, self eating, wood waste, 477 00:28:17.079 --> 00:28:20.440 pellet stoves. The chimney itself inspection starts with a video 478 00:28:20.480 --> 00:28:22.279 camera inspection. If it needs to be swept, they have 479 00:28:22.319 --> 00:28:25.079 certified chimney sweeps to do it. You may have water damage, 480 00:28:25.079 --> 00:28:26.480 you may have something going on in there you don't 481 00:28:26.480 --> 00:28:29.960 even know about. That's why it's important to have it 482 00:28:30.079 --> 00:28:33.799 inspected annually. I believe the National Fire Protection Association or 483 00:28:33.799 --> 00:28:37.519 whatever organization's responsible for that recommends an annual inspection, So 484 00:28:38.000 --> 00:28:40.400 get in touch with them. It'll give you peace of mind. 485 00:28:40.480 --> 00:28:42.519 And if you want to swap out what you got. 486 00:28:42.559 --> 00:28:44.640 You want to get a fireplace insert because you don't 487 00:28:44.640 --> 00:28:47.680 have one.

That's where 490 00:28:53.720 --> 00:28:55.920 I got my insert when I found out because of 491 00:28:55.960 --> 00:29:00.519 an inspection that my old insert was dangerous.

Code Pink organizer Olivia Denucci 508 00:29:50.839 --> 00:29:55.000 let a protest outside Senator Alex Padilla's California office yesterday, 509 00:29:57.799 --> 00:30:02.759 using these states raging wildfire as a mechanism to promote 510 00:30:02.799 --> 00:30:06.759 the group, promote the group's radical agenda, slamming Congress's support 511 00:30:06.839 --> 00:30:11.599 for Israel. How do you connect those two you don't quote? 512 00:30:11.640 --> 00:30:15.279 To continue to bomb and obliterate the people in Gaza. 513 00:30:15.480 --> 00:30:18.480 She alleged that California's fire crisis is part of a 514 00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:23.359 global pattern of destruction, tying the environmental devastation to the 515 00:30:23.400 --> 00:30:29.839 conflict in Gaza. See I even wrote what drugs is 516 00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:30.440 she on? 517 00:30:31.559 --> 00:30:31.839 Quote? 518 00:30:31.880 --> 00:30:35.279 We are drunk. We are drawing the parallels where people 519 00:30:35.279 --> 00:30:39.000 in communities in California are being evacuated from their homes 520 00:30:39.000 --> 00:30:41.480 and people in Gaza have been evacuated from their homes 521 00:30:41.480 --> 00:30:44.759 for the past fifteen months. Every bomb that goes off 522 00:30:44.880 --> 00:30:48.480 is being tested and built on sacrifice zones in this country, 523 00:30:48.960 --> 00:30:54.599 on indigenous lands. We need that, we need that money 524 00:30:54.599 --> 00:31:01.680 for climate reparations, for healthcare, for housing, instead of going 525 00:31:01.720 --> 00:31:06.039 to further climate collapse and further the devastation and genocide 526 00:31:06.079 --> 00:31:09.240 other people of Gaza. We are here today making the 527 00:31:09.279 --> 00:31:13.640 connection between the climate crisis between endless militarism, that genocide 528 00:31:13.759 --> 00:31:16.799 is ecoside, and that we need to put that money 529 00:31:16.799 --> 00:31:19.160 into constituents and communities here at home. 530 00:31:21.839 --> 00:31:22.480 That's ignorant. 531 00:31:24.279 --> 00:31:31.119 Wow. Not that the group has ever had any credibility. 532 00:31:31.200 --> 00:31:35.599 I might point out that's the leader of the group, 533 00:31:36.400 --> 00:31:40.920 that's the most competent, capable spokesperson for whatever message that 534 00:31:41.000 --> 00:31:43.640 group is trying to get out.

They 727 00:42:20.159 --> 00:42:22.719 keep all the warnings are out there, and we have 728 00:42:22.800 --> 00:42:25.880 this follow up warning that I got after the news 729 00:42:25.960 --> 00:42:29.679 or the weather was delivered, talking about a winter storm 730 00:42:29.719 --> 00:42:33.280 watch in effect from tomorrow morning through Saturday morning. So 731 00:42:33.320 --> 00:42:36.079 they're talking about overnight temperatures dropping along with the additional 732 00:42:36.079 --> 00:42:40.079 snow three to five inches possible. So either don't drive 733 00:42:40.119 --> 00:42:43.239 around or maybe take his advice. Just don't lock the 734 00:42:43.239 --> 00:42:46.519 brakes up. You will slide, Bobby. Welcome to the program. 735 00:42:46.599 --> 00:42:49.679 Happy Friday Eve to you, sir, Good. 736 00:42:49.480 --> 00:42:52.000 Morning, my brother. I got two quick points here and 737 00:42:52.039 --> 00:42:53.880 I'll get right out of your way. One of them 738 00:42:53.920 --> 00:42:58.199 has to do with California. Everybody saved just one bottle 739 00:42:58.199 --> 00:43:01.400 of water because that karmap is hard to swallow. 740 00:43:04.639 --> 00:43:07.360 You think you think this is like sort of divine 741 00:43:07.679 --> 00:43:10.639 justice Allah, Sodom and Gomora going on out there. 742 00:43:11.719 --> 00:43:13.920 Well, I don't know if it's divine intervention or not, 743 00:43:14.079 --> 00:43:16.480 but you know, hey, Carla, pill is hard to swallow, 744 00:43:16.599 --> 00:43:17.039 my friend. 745 00:43:17.199 --> 00:43:19.519 Yeah, well, you know if this was in biblical times, 746 00:43:19.559 --> 00:43:22.639 you know, before modern science, and you know, explanations for 747 00:43:22.719 --> 00:43:26.199 the causes of wildfires, et cetera. Some might say this is, 748 00:43:26.239 --> 00:43:28.920 you know, a biblical prophecy coming fulfilled. I don't know. 749 00:43:29.039 --> 00:43:30.880 That's not me. I'm just saying. 750 00:43:32.320 --> 00:43:34.280 And the next thing I have has to do at 751 00:43:34.320 --> 00:43:38.599 the convention center. Get it out of Cincinnati. Well, I'm 752 00:43:38.639 --> 00:43:42.159 talking about the Corporation Women of Cincinnati. You've got all 753 00:43:42.239 --> 00:43:44.719 kinds of other places that'd be wonderful to have a 754 00:43:44.800 --> 00:43:48.840 Hamilton County Convention Center. Put a name on it, just 755 00:43:48.880 --> 00:43:51.320 like they did pay Course Stadium. Put it right there 756 00:43:51.320 --> 00:43:53.519 in Sharonville. You got that mall they're going to be 757 00:43:53.559 --> 00:43:56.239 tearing down. You got the big mall there in Springdale. 758 00:43:56.280 --> 00:43:59.559 You got all the parking in the world within walking 759 00:43:59.599 --> 00:44:03.599 distans something from two seventy five. Why does anybody want 760 00:44:03.639 --> 00:44:06.800 to go down to Cincinnati and fight that thing? They 761 00:44:06.800 --> 00:44:10.360 can't even thunder pension fund. They won't do anything else. 762 00:44:10.320 --> 00:44:12.800 Or plow the streets. Makes it a little difficult on 763 00:44:13.079 --> 00:44:17.719 the streets. Put it in Anderson Apparently they did a 764 00:44:17.719 --> 00:44:20.719 pretty good job of cleaning up the roads and Andersonship. 765 00:44:21.480 --> 00:44:24.360 And it falls down on one thing. Tell me one 766 00:44:24.480 --> 00:44:32.199 thing Cincinnati's done properly, just one. I'm struggling on that 767 00:44:33.320 --> 00:44:34.920 Thank you, my brother. Appreciate it. 768 00:44:35.039 --> 00:44:35.159 Man. 769 00:44:35.880 --> 00:44:38.400 You're challenging me this morning, Bobby, you really are. And 770 00:44:38.519 --> 00:44:41.079 Bobby's comment spring from this is an article I saw 771 00:44:41.159 --> 00:44:45.400 this morning WCPO Mallushram reporting but business owners down at 772 00:44:45.440 --> 00:44:48.119 the banks are asking city officials to put a new 773 00:44:48.280 --> 00:44:54.880 arena right there where the Heritage Bank Center is and 774 00:44:55.079 --> 00:44:59.159 rather than relocate it, say, there's a feasibility study that 775 00:44:59.239 --> 00:45:00.880 was done in November can acted by the City of 776 00:45:00.960 --> 00:45:04.480 Cincinnati along with Hamilton County, the Port and Cincinnati US 777 00:45:04.559 --> 00:45:08.840 Regional Chamber determined that since they should build a new 778 00:45:08.960 --> 00:45:12.119 arena in one of two locations, either south of the 779 00:45:12.199 --> 00:45:15.400 TQL Stadium on the West End or near the Duke 780 00:45:15.599 --> 00:45:18.719 Energy Convention Center on land that'll be freed up by 781 00:45:18.719 --> 00:45:23.199 the Brents Benz Road reconstruction, or if you take Bobby's advice, 782 00:45:23.360 --> 00:45:26.159 somewhere outside of the city limits. CJ, thanks for calling 783 00:45:26.239 --> 00:45:28.239 this morning. Welcome to the fifty five Krsey Morning Show. 784 00:45:30.000 --> 00:45:30.800 Good morning to you. 785 00:45:31.440 --> 00:45:33.599 I was calling about California and there's a couple of 786 00:45:33.639 --> 00:45:37.000 things I wanted to point out. One is California specific, 787 00:45:37.599 --> 00:45:40.519 but you see the difference of red counties and blue 788 00:45:40.599 --> 00:45:44.320 counties out there because Orange County and Ventura County has 789 00:45:44.400 --> 00:45:46.480 had a lot of spark ups that they have put 790 00:45:46.559 --> 00:45:50.360 down quickly. You could see the lack of management and 791 00:45:50.440 --> 00:45:54.519 the inability to spend money properly and wisely instead of 792 00:45:55.000 --> 00:45:59.920 pet projects has a devastating consequence and that should be 793 00:46:00.079 --> 00:46:02.320 a lesson as you were just talking about to the 794 00:46:02.400 --> 00:46:06.079 city of Cincinnati. Number two, this is going to affect 795 00:46:06.360 --> 00:46:08.840 everybody in the country because the price to build a 796 00:46:08.920 --> 00:46:11.320 house is going to go through the roof because not 797 00:46:11.440 --> 00:46:14.199 only do you now have California, you've got North Carolina 798 00:46:14.280 --> 00:46:17.559 and South Carolina that need to rebuild. Florida still has 799 00:46:17.599 --> 00:46:20.599 some rebuilding going on. Oh yeah, and you've got another 800 00:46:20.760 --> 00:46:23.679 major issue that could happen. It's not just the insurance 801 00:46:23.760 --> 00:46:26.079 companies that are going to have a problem. In fact, 802 00:46:26.119 --> 00:46:29.159 they're not because they've canceled all these policies. It is 803 00:46:29.239 --> 00:46:31.639 going to be the banking system because people are going 804 00:46:31.719 --> 00:46:34.960 to look at these mortgages and their house that it's 805 00:46:35.199 --> 00:46:37.679 completely gone, that they cannot rebuild, and they're going to 806 00:46:37.719 --> 00:46:40.760 stop paying on those mortgages, and that could cause a 807 00:46:40.920 --> 00:46:44.280 serious banking crisis that I hope to Biden and Trump 808 00:46:44.360 --> 00:46:47.480 teams right now are already talking about how to how 809 00:46:47.559 --> 00:46:50.559 to get this under containment because those are not cheap 810 00:46:50.719 --> 00:46:54.440 houses out there. Yeah, it could that you're looking at 811 00:46:54.639 --> 00:46:58.400 having to rebuild and potentially go into foreclosure. This could 812 00:46:58.440 --> 00:47:01.519 have serious macro economic consequences. 813 00:47:02.320 --> 00:47:05.800 Astute observation, CJ. I can't argue with anything you said. 814 00:47:06.800 --> 00:47:08.559 You know, and the land in and of itself is 815 00:47:08.679 --> 00:47:11.559 extremely valuable. I mean, you know what the average price 816 00:47:11.639 --> 00:47:13.400 of a house out in some of these areas, specific 817 00:47:13.440 --> 00:47:16.400 Palisades Malibu. I mean you can't touch even that's the 818 00:47:16.519 --> 00:47:19.280 most modest home for less than a million plus dollars. 819 00:47:20.199 --> 00:47:24.639 That's just because of the location. So I agree with you. 820 00:47:24.719 --> 00:47:26.360 Building supplies are going to be a problem. They're going 821 00:47:26.400 --> 00:47:28.480 to go They're going to become more expensive. And you know, 822 00:47:28.559 --> 00:47:30.360 and I'm waiting out I hear I am saying it 823 00:47:30.440 --> 00:47:34.280 out loud. I'm introducing the conspiracy theory actually pattern observer, 824 00:47:34.639 --> 00:47:36.800 since I had the author of that Thanks for the call, CJ. 825 00:47:36.920 --> 00:47:38.480 By the way, I had the author of that book 826 00:47:38.519 --> 00:47:41.280 on Lahina and the fire out in Hawaii and the 827 00:47:41.800 --> 00:47:44.320 refusal of authorities to allow the property owners to go 828 00:47:44.480 --> 00:47:47.119 in there. This whole idea about it was burned to 829 00:47:47.159 --> 00:47:50.119 the ground. They're going to rebuild it along these green 830 00:47:50.480 --> 00:47:53.559 environmental lines or not rebuild it at all. I don't know. 831 00:47:54.440 --> 00:47:57.079 But if you look at the value of that real 832 00:47:57.199 --> 00:48:00.519 estate simply because of the views and the desire of 833 00:48:00.599 --> 00:48:03.840 people to live in that particular area, the real estate 834 00:48:03.920 --> 00:48:06.920 itself is still going to be very expensive. Does anybody 835 00:48:07.000 --> 00:48:10.880 anticipate that there are going to be new building restrictions? 836 00:48:11.360 --> 00:48:14.159 Are they going to allow these chuckleheads who build twenty 837 00:48:14.239 --> 00:48:18.000 five thousand square foot homes for god knows what reason 838 00:48:18.679 --> 00:48:23.159 to rebuild something that large. Do those people who built 839 00:48:23.320 --> 00:48:27.079 like twenty five thousand square foot houses a have insurance 840 00:48:27.119 --> 00:48:29.639 that hasn't been canceled. Will their insurance company pony up 841 00:48:29.639 --> 00:48:33.960 the money to rebuild it? Will they consider maybe doing 842 00:48:34.199 --> 00:48:37.880 building restriction sizes? Will some of the new building restrictions 843 00:48:37.920 --> 00:48:40.360 that have been put in place since those monstrosities have 844 00:48:40.480 --> 00:48:45.039 been built now prevent them from rebuilding something that large? 845 00:48:45.119 --> 00:48:48.079 I don't know. And listen, now, I'm a free market guy. 846 00:48:48.079 --> 00:48:49.920 If you want to be stupid enough to go ahead 847 00:48:49.920 --> 00:48:54.079 and build a twenty five thousand square foot home whatever 848 00:48:54.360 --> 00:48:57.159 for you in your partner to live in and probably 849 00:48:57.239 --> 00:48:59.320 never see each other, or to sit in one of 850 00:48:59.480 --> 00:49:02.880 four rooms that you use largely to the exclusion of 851 00:49:03.000 --> 00:49:07.159 the rest of the house. How many bedrooms do we 852 00:49:07.199 --> 00:49:09.000 have here? I don't know. I haven't been around the 853 00:49:09.039 --> 00:49:11.480 whole house. I mean, I just don't get that stuff, Honestly, 854 00:49:13.679 --> 00:49:17.719 I really don't, you know. I make a joke about, 855 00:49:17.840 --> 00:49:20.840 you know, the size of one's genitalia as sort of 856 00:49:20.920 --> 00:49:26.679 a you know, like making up for sparse resources in 857 00:49:26.760 --> 00:49:29.280 other areas, because a lot of times it just seems 858 00:49:29.280 --> 00:49:32.719 to me that that's all that is.

Let's jump over to the phone 912 00:52:17.880 --> 00:52:19.760 before I move on here. Steve's on the line. Steve you. 913 00:52:19.760 --> 00:52:21.400 Happy Friday Eve, welcome to the program. 914 00:52:22.199 --> 00:52:24.800 Happy Friday Eve to you, even though I'm at work 915 00:52:25.079 --> 00:52:27.719 five thirty Saturday morning. That'll be a fun one. 916 00:52:27.880 --> 00:52:30.000 So well, there's always. 917 00:52:30.079 --> 00:52:33.599 It'll work out. I'll just I go downhill the whole way, 918 00:52:33.719 --> 00:52:35.920 so I'll just gun the engine to sell. Is that 919 00:52:36.039 --> 00:52:40.480 the advice we got step on the gas or Laura, well, 920 00:52:40.599 --> 00:52:41.440 something like whatever. 921 00:52:42.039 --> 00:52:45.079 I'll get there, throw throw caution to the wind. 922 00:52:45.719 --> 00:52:49.679 I'll put my sunglasses on and roll down the windows 923 00:52:49.920 --> 00:52:51.559 and uh, we'll see. 924 00:52:51.599 --> 00:52:52.159 But okay. 925 00:52:52.599 --> 00:52:56.960 Two comments on on local leadership in southern California and 926 00:52:57.199 --> 00:53:01.559 national leadership in the United States of America. You know, 927 00:53:01.840 --> 00:53:05.639 you really hate when you're really wealthy but you take 928 00:53:05.719 --> 00:53:10.119 a vacation to the continent of Africa and based on 929 00:53:10.360 --> 00:53:14.719 city business. When you're like maybe the mayor of Los Angeles, Karen, 930 00:53:15.519 --> 00:53:19.159 and you do it on the taxpayer dime. There would 931 00:53:19.199 --> 00:53:21.719 be nothing wrong with her being on vacation over there, 932 00:53:22.199 --> 00:53:24.920 but she's sucking money out of the taxpayers to take 933 00:53:25.039 --> 00:53:28.079 vacations as Kamala Harris is doing right now. She's touring 934 00:53:28.119 --> 00:53:30.920 the world right now. Got gotta get a few more 935 00:53:30.960 --> 00:53:33.280 trips in there. I think she's going to hit Singapore 936 00:53:33.320 --> 00:53:37.360 in a few days. But she she is whatever boxes 937 00:53:37.440 --> 00:53:39.679 haven't been checked yet, they want to check them. But 938 00:53:39.880 --> 00:53:43.320 now Karen Bass Los Angeles, she's a black female and 939 00:53:43.400 --> 00:53:45.880 she has a d buy her name. So everything's okay. 940 00:53:46.440 --> 00:53:50.559 But it's it's great having non leaders in leadership positions. 941 00:53:50.119 --> 00:53:52.760 Isn't it it is? 942 00:53:53.039 --> 00:53:55.559 And I called yesterday and I want to expand on 943 00:53:55.960 --> 00:53:59.159 something with you were Actually you were talking a lot 944 00:53:59.320 --> 00:54:02.000 about why with the Biden I guess a couple of 945 00:54:02.079 --> 00:54:06.199 days ago, why would the Biden administration take like six 946 00:54:06.320 --> 00:54:10.760 hundred and fifty million acres of offshore land and say 947 00:54:10.840 --> 00:54:13.719 you can't drill there? Da da da da da when 948 00:54:13.840 --> 00:54:17.239 the incoming administration is going to change that. It helps 949 00:54:17.320 --> 00:54:20.079 to have maybe not much going on in your life, 950 00:54:20.159 --> 00:54:22.280 so you have a good memory of stuff that's not 951 00:54:22.400 --> 00:54:25.320 really that important. But I remember the last day of 952 00:54:25.519 --> 00:54:30.239 the Bill Clinton administration, and he was in office for 953 00:54:30.360 --> 00:54:36.559 eight years, and they reduced the arsenic levels that were 954 00:54:36.679 --> 00:54:40.480 permitted in drinking water by half, So it was like, 955 00:54:40.599 --> 00:54:46.039 you know, one billionth of whatever whatever however they they 956 00:54:46.440 --> 00:54:48.639 judge it, or whatever the parameter. 957 00:54:49.159 --> 00:54:51.480 Or however, yet they reduced it. 958 00:54:51.880 --> 00:54:55.599 Now it's such a trivial amount, it doesn't matter, but 959 00:54:55.679 --> 00:54:57.800 they cut it in half, and it was so important 960 00:54:57.840 --> 00:54:59.679 to them that they did it on their last day 961 00:54:59.719 --> 00:55:04.079 at all. Well, when George W. Bush came in, first day, 962 00:55:04.760 --> 00:55:09.119 they brought the arsenic levels that were permitted in drinking 963 00:55:09.280 --> 00:55:13.199 water back to what they had been the entire time 964 00:55:13.360 --> 00:55:17.199 of the Clinton administration except for the last day. And 965 00:55:17.639 --> 00:55:21.239 this was fodder for the talk shows again going after 966 00:55:21.400 --> 00:55:24.480 voters that don't pay any attention to this. And it 967 00:55:24.719 --> 00:55:29.440 was the George W. Bush administration doubled the amount of 968 00:55:29.719 --> 00:55:33.039 arsenic permitted in drinking water. So why do they That's 969 00:55:33.119 --> 00:55:36.000 one reason they do things like that, because because of 970 00:55:36.079 --> 00:55:42.159 a compliant media that is lying by omission, they're they're 971 00:55:42.199 --> 00:55:46.239 not lying. He did double it, but you know, and uh, 972 00:55:47.360 --> 00:55:49.800 you know, and again usually the if they've got a 973 00:55:49.840 --> 00:55:54.559 conservative on on a left leaning news show, it's some 974 00:55:54.800 --> 00:55:59.840 dufis that you know, it's uh, Liz Cheney or Adamkins 975 00:56:00.360 --> 00:56:04.199 or somebody like that that really doesn't or like Colon 976 00:56:04.280 --> 00:56:06.400 pal was a great one. He was a Republican, but 977 00:56:06.480 --> 00:56:09.000 he hadn't voted for a Republican president for like four 978 00:56:09.119 --> 00:56:12.519 presidential elections in a row. But he was a Republican. 979 00:56:12.719 --> 00:56:15.079 So but that that's all I've got to say. 980 00:56:15.159 --> 00:56:15.880 But I appreciate it. 981 00:56:15.960 --> 00:56:18.280 There's a reason for their madness because they have a 982 00:56:18.360 --> 00:56:21.119 compliant media that's pushing their agenda. 983 00:56:21.440 --> 00:56:25.199 Understood and agreed, But I would the difference between the 984 00:56:25.360 --> 00:56:29.880 two executive actions. You go back to Clinton having arsenic 985 00:56:30.039 --> 00:56:31.880 levels and it's like one of those who could argue 986 00:56:31.920 --> 00:56:34.599 with that arsenic Oh my god, that's toxic, it'll kill you. 987 00:56:35.119 --> 00:56:37.360 So boy, that makes good sense. Why did he wait 988 00:56:37.400 --> 00:56:39.800 till the last day it was presidency? And the reason 989 00:56:39.960 --> 00:56:42.960 probably why And I'm just guessing on this George Bush 990 00:56:43.039 --> 00:56:46.320 that went ahead and unwrung that executive order bell probably 991 00:56:46.360 --> 00:56:48.440 because most of the water treatment plants in the country 992 00:56:48.519 --> 00:56:52.599 couldn't reduce the level of arsenic to the small, infinitestimal 993 00:56:52.599 --> 00:56:56.880 amount that the Clinton administration waved into the waved into 994 00:56:56.880 --> 00:56:59.760 the regulations with the magic wand so would be the 995 00:56:59.760 --> 00:57:01.960 re But then the talking point, as you point out, 996 00:57:02.039 --> 00:57:05.679 is oh my god, Bush doubled the arsenic level. Well, 997 00:57:05.800 --> 00:57:10.079 that doesn't mean it made the water dangerous. Again, as 998 00:57:10.159 --> 00:57:12.800 you note, we have been living with that level for 999 00:57:13.039 --> 00:57:15.960 however many years, and probably so many years prior to 1000 00:57:16.000 --> 00:57:20.360 even Bill Clinton taking office. But yeah, it does make 1001 00:57:20.440 --> 00:57:23.119 for great fodder. But I don't think you can make 1002 00:57:23.159 --> 00:57:25.800 the same argument with banning the oil and gas. Let's 1003 00:57:25.840 --> 00:57:30.719 use California as an illustration. Right now, we do need 1004 00:57:31.679 --> 00:57:38.880 the resources. The world still rotates based upon natural gas 1005 00:57:38.960 --> 00:57:42.599 and oil. Say all you want, our energy demands continue 1006 00:57:42.639 --> 00:57:46.559 to grow. Now, what would it be like if you 1007 00:57:46.719 --> 00:57:50.119 lived in Pacific Palisades and you had your electric vehicle, 1008 00:57:50.239 --> 00:57:52.840 your Tesla platte. Of course they would drive one of those, 1009 00:57:52.960 --> 00:58:01.599 right the power has been shut off. Now if you 1010 00:58:01.639 --> 00:58:04.159 have an internal combustion engine, if you're a smart person, 1011 00:58:04.239 --> 00:58:07.079 you got an extra five gallons of gasoline in your 1012 00:58:07.119 --> 00:58:11.320 garage store someplace safely, you can drive out of there. 1013 00:58:11.320 --> 00:58:13.239 I mean, assuming the roads aren't blocked. But you can 1014 00:58:13.320 --> 00:58:15.760 get out and you can leave. You don't need the 1015 00:58:15.880 --> 00:58:23.360 electrical grid for transportation right now, they're stuck. Many people 1016 00:58:23.400 --> 00:58:26.000 don't have electricity in neighborhoods that haven't caught on fire. 1017 00:58:26.079 --> 00:58:28.480 And please, dear God, don't let any more neighborhoods catch 1018 00:58:28.519 --> 00:58:30.440 on fire. We don't need more loss of life, we 1019 00:58:30.480 --> 00:58:34.400 don't need more property destruction. I don't wish that on anybody. 1020 00:58:36.039 --> 00:58:39.000 So they have no running water right now, and half 1021 00:58:39.079 --> 00:58:43.880 a million or so people have zero electricity, and you're 1022 00:58:43.920 --> 00:58:48.000 the one looking at your uncharged ev in the driveway 1023 00:58:48.079 --> 00:58:53.880 when the evacuation order comes to your neighborhood. That seems 1024 00:58:53.880 --> 00:58:58.480 to me represents a bit of a challenge. Fifty eight 1025 00:58:58.480 --> 00:58:59.960 two three tucks a couple up in six twenty seve 1026 00:59:00.000 --> 00:59:01.960 If you have Kirstee talk station, you got local stories, 1027 00:59:02.039 --> 00:59:03.880 I'd rather talk to you, so feel free to call. 1028 00:59:04.480 --> 00:59:10.559 But first, kitchen remodeling. The man who I think has 1029 00:59:10.639 --> 00:59:14.519 probably remodeled more kitchens than any human being on the planet, 1030 00:59:15.199 --> 00:59:18.239 John Ryan pressed these in tears. Who you want to 1031 00:59:18.280 --> 00:59:20.159 work with, and that's who we work with, and like 1032 00:59:20.199 --> 00:59:22.599 to refer to John as a very very sweet guy, 1033 00:59:22.719 --> 00:59:26.320 great guy to work with, just just pleasant as he 1034 00:59:26.440 --> 00:59:29.360 can be, and he has wonderful ideas for your kitchen 1035 00:59:29.440 --> 00:59:32.239 remodeling project.

Here's a Sean handed any morning minute. 1060 01:00:38.320 --> 01:00:42.159 This is what environmental radicalism gets you. I'll never forget. 1061 01:00:42.639 --> 01:00:45.360 I went out to the San Joaquin Valley. I cover 1062 01:00:45.480 --> 01:00:50.119 this for Fox that you add all these farms, massive 1063 01:00:50.239 --> 01:00:54.320 farms that were bone dry, and there was all of 1064 01:00:54.440 --> 01:00:58.559 this water that was available to them, and it was 1065 01:00:58.719 --> 01:01:02.440 not made available to farmers because they wanted to protect 1066 01:01:03.039 --> 01:01:06.760 what's called the delta smelt. Now, the delta smelt, if 1067 01:01:06.800 --> 01:01:09.159 you look it up and look at a picture of it, 1068 01:01:09.360 --> 01:01:12.079 it looks like a little minnow fish. It's not even 1069 01:01:12.400 --> 01:01:14.880 like an exotic fish, and by the way, not even 1070 01:01:14.960 --> 01:01:18.320 in an endangered species. And they cared more about the 1071 01:01:18.440 --> 01:01:21.000 delta smelt than they did about the farmers, and the 1072 01:01:21.119 --> 01:01:23.639 farmers lost their entire livelihood. 1073 01:01:24.119 --> 01:01:29.039 Check out the Sean Hannity radio show later today right here. 1074 01:01:32.159 --> 01:01:34.760 Hey, you exhausted every day, Maybe you have the three 1075 01:01:34.840 --> 01:01:38.039 pm crash or struggling with memory issues, having a hard 1076 01:01:38.119 --> 01:01:40.599 time focusing.

Me and my wife have lived in 1133 01:04:16.639 --> 01:04:20.599 a small Cape Cod for twenty eight years, and I 1134 01:04:20.639 --> 01:04:23.679 would love to see a developer start building houses. 1135 01:04:23.440 --> 01:04:23.920 Like that again. 1136 01:04:24.400 --> 01:04:27.199 You know what, I've thought about that for years, Mike. 1137 01:04:27.679 --> 01:04:29.280 I got when you got your kitchen, you got your 1138 01:04:29.360 --> 01:04:31.039 living room, you got your bedroom back. 1139 01:04:30.920 --> 01:04:37.119 And you could do an unbelievably cool custom home, you know, 1140 01:04:37.360 --> 01:04:41.559 like with really high quality interiors, flooring and everything. It 1141 01:04:41.599 --> 01:04:44.000 doesn't have to be very big, but it could be 1142 01:04:44.119 --> 01:04:46.239 like a really nice quality and you could have it 1143 01:04:46.320 --> 01:04:50.840 occupy a smaller space and you know, how much room 1144 01:04:50.840 --> 01:04:53.679 do you need? I mean, I use like four rooms 1145 01:04:53.719 --> 01:04:55.599 in our house. We don't have that big of a house. 1146 01:04:56.760 --> 01:05:00.199 But you're right. And I even have a friend in 1147 01:05:00.400 --> 01:05:04.280 the building business and he builds those massive custom mansion 1148 01:05:04.360 --> 01:05:07.280 type homes, and it always left scratching my head over 1149 01:05:07.840 --> 01:05:10.480 who in the hell needs all this space anyway? 1150 01:05:10.679 --> 01:05:13.719 Are they living the huge houses and there's no furniture 1151 01:05:13.760 --> 01:05:14.960 in it and they can't abort. 1152 01:05:14.719 --> 01:05:20.119 The that's the other thing. I mean, I really appreciate architecture, 1153 01:05:20.119 --> 01:05:21.880 and I love the you know, you get these pop 1154 01:05:21.960 --> 01:05:25.119 up things on Facebook because they obviously know my algorithm. 1155 01:05:25.159 --> 01:05:27.840 Because I love looking at those old houses. That's the 1156 01:05:27.920 --> 01:05:29.320 one thing I always look at. It's like, God, this 1157 01:05:29.480 --> 01:05:31.559 is the coolest house. Look at that would work? Oh 1158 01:05:31.639 --> 01:05:34.519 my god, the craftsmanship, and you appreciate how big the 1159 01:05:34.639 --> 01:05:37.679 thing is. Like, wait a second, I own enough furniture 1160 01:05:37.760 --> 01:05:41.039 to maybe furnish two rooms in that place. Spend as 1161 01:05:41.159 --> 01:05:43.679 much on furniture furnishing the rest of the rooms in 1162 01:05:43.719 --> 01:05:45.320 the house as you would on buying the house in 1163 01:05:45.360 --> 01:05:47.920 the first place. Anyway, you're talking to kind of money 1164 01:05:47.960 --> 01:05:50.840 that I never will have, and honestly, even if I 1165 01:05:50.960 --> 01:05:54.320 had it, I would never ever ever go down that road. 1166 01:05:54.880 --> 01:05:57.079 Thanks to the call, Maureen, Welcome to the Morning Show. 1167 01:05:57.079 --> 01:05:58.639 In a very happy Friday eve to you. 1168 01:06:00.079 --> 01:06:05.000 Hi, good morning, Brian. You just mentioned Stephanie Paratucci's interview 1169 01:06:05.079 --> 01:06:06.960 with you about the fires in Loina. 1170 01:06:07.360 --> 01:06:07.840 Yea, and. 1171 01:06:10.440 --> 01:06:15.800 Yeah, I figure that was my CALLU. But anyway, when 1172 01:06:15.840 --> 01:06:19.199 I called you right after the line of fires, I 1173 01:06:19.400 --> 01:06:22.199 mentioned the possibility of the fact that they wanted to 1174 01:06:22.760 --> 01:06:25.800 have a smart city there, and she reiterated that in 1175 01:06:25.920 --> 01:06:28.639 her interview with you and her books, but I also 1176 01:06:28.719 --> 01:06:31.079 wanted to bring out did you know that there's an 1177 01:06:31.079 --> 01:06:34.679 initiative on the books called Smart La twenty twenty eight 1178 01:06:35.400 --> 01:06:38.039 and its goal is to transform Los Angeles into a 1179 01:06:38.119 --> 01:06:42.599 highly digitally connected smart city by twenty twenty eight, and 1180 01:06:43.480 --> 01:06:45.800 that this was done to coincide with the twenty twenty 1181 01:06:45.840 --> 01:06:48.639 eight Olympics. And this or there's going to be the 1182 01:06:48.719 --> 01:06:51.039 site of a major sports event to be held at 1183 01:06:51.079 --> 01:06:54.599 the Olympic and it's right there at Pacific Palisades. And 1184 01:06:54.679 --> 01:06:58.159 they're also planning a bullet train to run through all 1185 01:06:58.280 --> 01:07:01.599 the areas that are on fire right now. And a 1186 01:07:01.679 --> 01:07:06.719 couple things. In Stephanie's book, Sound the Alarm, she wrote 1187 01:07:06.719 --> 01:07:09.679 a whole chapter it's called who would do This? And 1188 01:07:10.199 --> 01:07:14.280 do is spell DEW which stands for directed energy weapons, 1189 01:07:14.800 --> 01:07:19.119 which we do know exist. And in her book Burned 1190 01:07:19.159 --> 01:07:23.480 Back Better, she also has a chapter and it's on toscopes, 1191 01:07:23.519 --> 01:07:26.880 dues and climate engineering. And she's going to do a 1192 01:07:27.079 --> 01:07:30.000 documentary on Lahina and it's going to be called Sound 1193 01:07:30.039 --> 01:07:32.840 the Alarm after her recent book, and in it she 1194 01:07:33.000 --> 01:07:36.719 talks about how she interviewed people in Mahina, and they've 1195 01:07:36.800 --> 01:07:40.199 come to realize that they're being gas lit and blamed 1196 01:07:40.280 --> 01:07:44.000 for the fire based on their plastic straws and disposable 1197 01:07:44.039 --> 01:07:47.320 plastic cups and different things related to climate change, and 1198 01:07:48.159 --> 01:07:50.679 you know, the whole sustainability thing that they're going with 1199 01:07:50.800 --> 01:07:55.840 with Agenda twenty thirty. So obviously not the Jerry still 1200 01:07:55.880 --> 01:07:57.760 out on what's going on with this fire, but I 1201 01:07:57.800 --> 01:07:59.320 think those are some things to think about. 1202 01:08:00.000 --> 01:08:05.599 You add that to my conversation with Breitbart's Oliver Lane 1203 01:08:05.719 --> 01:08:10.320 about all these individuals who are committing acts of terrorism 1204 01:08:10.400 --> 01:08:13.320 in order to shut down electric grids or shut down 1205 01:08:13.400 --> 01:08:16.359 the Paris trained in advance of the Olympics and just 1206 01:08:16.479 --> 01:08:19.720 being you know, overall nuisances, but in the name of 1207 01:08:20.119 --> 01:08:25.319 shutting down the capitalist system generally speaking. But they're acting individually. Now, 1208 01:08:25.399 --> 01:08:28.199 take what you said, whether or not listeners believe your 1209 01:08:28.319 --> 01:08:31.520 theories or the theories that she espoused about the desire 1210 01:08:31.680 --> 01:08:34.920 to rebuild Lahina got to wipe it out before you 1211 01:08:35.000 --> 01:08:37.760 can rebuild it. Was that utentional or not, You draw 1212 01:08:37.800 --> 01:08:40.039 your own conclusions. You know, I'm a cynic and I'm 1213 01:08:40.039 --> 01:08:42.039 a skeptic, and I find it hard to buy into 1214 01:08:42.119 --> 01:08:44.199 some of these things. But if you think about what 1215 01:08:44.319 --> 01:08:47.520 Oliver's talking about, and if you think about what these 1216 01:08:47.640 --> 01:08:51.399 legitimate articles and proposals that actually are on the books 1217 01:08:51.399 --> 01:08:54.880 about transforming cities into fifteen minute walking communities, et cetera, 1218 01:08:54.880 --> 01:08:57.720 et cetera, you need a clean slate to do that. Now, 1219 01:08:58.119 --> 01:09:01.960 some radical, maybe one of the code pink nut jobs, 1220 01:09:02.359 --> 01:09:04.880 is out there and says, hmm, we really do need that, 1221 01:09:05.039 --> 01:09:06.520 And how are we going to bring that about when 1222 01:09:06.520 --> 01:09:09.600 we got all these multi gazillion dollar houses in Malibu 1223 01:09:09.720 --> 01:09:12.840 and Pacific Palisades. Hmm, I've got a pack of matches. 1224 01:09:13.159 --> 01:09:16.800 It hasn't rained but one point one inch since last June. 1225 01:09:17.439 --> 01:09:21.279 It's dry. How can I help accomplish that long term goal? 1226 01:09:21.399 --> 01:09:21.560 Here? 1227 01:09:21.680 --> 01:09:23.760 Let me light a match and drop it on the ground. 1228 01:09:24.920 --> 01:09:29.760 Now that's conceivable. You don't need some behind the scenes, 1229 01:09:30.119 --> 01:09:33.119 you know, conspiracy theory government to bring that about. We've 1230 01:09:33.159 --> 01:09:36.359 got all the documents which talk about what their desires 1231 01:09:36.520 --> 01:09:40.520 are from a future perspective. It's all out there. I mean, 1232 01:09:40.640 --> 01:09:42.720 this has been going back to like Agenda fifteen or 1233 01:09:42.760 --> 01:09:45.920 whatever the hell that was, you know, the connected cities. 1234 01:09:46.000 --> 01:09:49.039 It's there's a multitude of works out there now. That 1235 01:09:49.319 --> 01:09:52.880 is a form of radicalization in a way. It's like 1236 01:09:53.039 --> 01:09:55.680 Islamic fundamentalism. You can get a guy that reads enough 1237 01:09:55.720 --> 01:09:58.319 of this stuff, gets bought into the concept of Islamic 1238 01:09:58.399 --> 01:10:00.840 fundamentalism and wants to start killing people. Be so based 1239 01:10:00.880 --> 01:10:04.079 on religion. Why because they've been influenced to believe in 1240 01:10:04.159 --> 01:10:06.439 that type of thing and want to bring it about. 1241 01:10:07.840 --> 01:10:10.239 So this makes it very easy. Someone's out there in 1242 01:10:10.359 --> 01:10:12.760 the world that bought into this stuff and is looking around, 1243 01:10:12.840 --> 01:10:15.920 going what idiot needs at twenty five thousand dollars or 1244 01:10:15.960 --> 01:10:19.159 twenty five thousand square foot house, said Brian Thomas in agreement. 1245 01:10:19.840 --> 01:10:21.960 What do we do about that. We can't get rid 1246 01:10:22.000 --> 01:10:25.800 of it. They own the property. Hmm, I got a 1247 01:10:25.880 --> 01:10:29.960 pack of matches. I'm just saying, this is how things start, 1248 01:10:30.039 --> 01:10:32.680 and this is how conspiracy theories start. I'm just observing 1249 01:10:33.520 --> 01:10:36.199 the reality of the world that we live in right now. 1250 01:10:36.359 --> 01:10:39.800 Six point thirty nine fifty five KRCD talk station. Foreign 1251 01:10:39.840 --> 01:10:44.560 Exchange got the Honda in Foreign Exchange right now. I 1252 01:10:44.760 --> 01:10:46.439 have no idea what's wrong with it. It's not my 1253 01:10:46.520 --> 01:10:49.680 problem anymore. My son took it in there yesterday. He's 1254 01:10:49.760 --> 01:10:51.760 going to be dealing with it from right now. But 1255 01:10:51.920 --> 01:10:53.920 Foreign Exchange will not charge him as much as if 1256 01:10:53.920 --> 01:10:55.720 we took him to the Honda dealership to figure out 1257 01:10:55.720 --> 01:10:58.880 what's wrong with it making some weird noises. They'll figure 1258 01:10:58.880 --> 01:11:00.720 it out. I know they will, and my son gets 1259 01:11:00.800 --> 01:11:03.800 the bill for that. Thank you, Jerry. He's going to 1260 01:11:03.840 --> 01:11:06.439 be glad he went to Foreign Exchange because regardless of 1261 01:11:06.439 --> 01:11:08.119 how much it costs to fix that car, it's going 1262 01:11:08.159 --> 01:11:09.520 to be less than the dealer.

Happy Friday Eve. Uh no, Eric, 1301 01:12:56.279 --> 01:12:58.600 I didn't see the video. Just got an edgeent message 1302 01:12:58.640 --> 01:13:00.720 from Erica. You've seen the video of the gal arguing 1303 01:13:00.760 --> 01:13:03.960 with the homeless person setting fire to brush along a 1304 01:13:04.039 --> 01:13:07.119 set of tracks in Los Angeles. I'll take him at 1305 01:13:07.159 --> 01:13:09.800 his word. Certainly possible. I's wondering whether it was the 1306 01:13:09.800 --> 01:13:11.880 same guy who set the playground on fire and burned 1307 01:13:11.960 --> 01:13:16.439 up the Big Mac Bridge. Oh that's right, Joe, it 1308 01:13:16.560 --> 01:13:18.600 wasn't a homeless person. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to 1309 01:13:18.600 --> 01:13:29.960 disparage the homeless some random dude. How's that parenthetically without home? Good? 1310 01:13:30.159 --> 01:13:34.199 Good point, Joe. But you see how easy it is 1311 01:13:34.279 --> 01:13:42.239 to do. And going back to electricity Southern California, Edison, 1312 01:13:42.319 --> 01:13:46.000 that's they serve fifteen million people across southern, central, and 1313 01:13:46.079 --> 01:13:49.359 coastal California, said. Weather conditions in the Los Angeles County 1314 01:13:49.399 --> 01:13:52.720 area now, because of the winds and the fires, they're 1315 01:13:52.800 --> 01:13:56.199 too unsafe for power to be restored for the hundreds 1316 01:13:56.359 --> 01:14:00.399 of thousands of folks who no longer have electricity flowing 1317 01:14:03.399 --> 01:14:06.720 now southern California. Edison said it's probably several days of 1318 01:14:06.880 --> 01:14:10.520 outages because the wimstorms and wildfires admit it too unsafe 1319 01:14:10.560 --> 01:14:16.800 for the power restoration. They have no date estimated for restoration, 1320 01:14:16.960 --> 01:14:19.119 and again that includes a whole bunch of people who 1321 01:14:19.199 --> 01:14:21.800 are not in the middle of a raging wildfire. Now 1322 01:14:21.840 --> 01:14:24.880 you would expect, because I've seen pictures of it. The 1323 01:14:24.960 --> 01:14:29.159 fire also burns up the power lines. I'm not sure 1324 01:14:29.199 --> 01:14:32.159 how many traditional wood telephone poles they have out there 1325 01:14:32.199 --> 01:14:34.359 are power poles. They may have concrete once, it doesn't 1326 01:14:34.399 --> 01:14:37.680 matter the lines themselves. There's all kinds of images of 1327 01:14:37.760 --> 01:14:40.680 the lines themselves burning up, which means all of that 1328 01:14:40.840 --> 01:14:43.199 grid is going to have to be replaced before anybody 1329 01:14:43.279 --> 01:14:47.760 in the area is going to get any electricity. And 1330 01:14:47.880 --> 01:14:50.800 of course, the wind and the poor maintenance of the 1331 01:14:50.920 --> 01:14:53.479 grid out in California has already been blamed for prior 1332 01:14:53.680 --> 01:14:59.079 wildfires out there. That's a four pm yesterday, four hundred 1333 01:14:59.119 --> 01:15:06.520 and thirteen plays US thousand customers without power and a 1334 01:15:06.640 --> 01:15:08.920 half a million close to anyway, we're under a public 1335 01:15:09.000 --> 01:15:13.039 safety power shut off watch, which means you better anticipate 1336 01:15:13.119 --> 01:15:18.920 the power shutting off in this area. This SCE Southern 1337 01:15:19.000 --> 01:15:24.119 California area apparently, as according to the reporting, does not 1338 01:15:24.279 --> 01:15:28.760 even include the areas impacted by the Palisades and Hurst wildfires, 1339 01:15:29.479 --> 01:15:33.800 completely separate power system in grid. It does cover areas 1340 01:15:33.840 --> 01:15:36.600 that include the Eaton fire, and that's the one that's 1341 01:15:36.600 --> 01:15:41.920 claimed five lives since it began on Tuesday. In their statement, 1342 01:15:42.039 --> 01:15:44.920 the SE has transmission facilities on the east side of 1343 01:15:44.960 --> 01:15:48.000 Eaton Canyon. SE's distribution lines immediately to the west of 1344 01:15:48.039 --> 01:15:51.000 Eaton Canyon were de energized well before the reported start 1345 01:15:51.079 --> 01:15:54.199 time of the fire as part of the see public 1346 01:15:54.279 --> 01:16:01.800 safety power shut off program. So again I'll go back 1347 01:16:01.840 --> 01:16:07.039 to the well impractical reality of owning an electric vehicle, 1348 01:16:08.560 --> 01:16:11.439 especially in times of crisis when you really need to 1349 01:16:11.520 --> 01:16:14.039 get the hell out of Dodge six forty seven fifty 1350 01:16:14.079 --> 01:16:18.479 five R see the talk station Fastened Pro roofing. I 1351 01:16:18.600 --> 01:16:22.199 love those folks at fast and Pro. They're just really solid, 1352 01:16:22.960 --> 01:16:27.039 good people and they do superior work. You can count 1353 01:16:27.079 --> 01:16:28.920 on Random Man and the team at fashion Pro, which 1354 01:16:28.960 --> 01:16:31.520 includes my daughter's fiance Eric I like to point that out. 1355 01:16:32.439 --> 01:16:34.600 Eric's been around the roofing business for a long long time, 1356 01:16:36.079 --> 01:16:38.880 went back into it after college. Good kid, and he 1357 01:16:38.960 --> 01:16:40.840 may be the one doing a free estimate or free 1358 01:16:40.920 --> 01:16:42.399 quote for it. He also does some of the repair 1359 01:16:42.439 --> 01:16:44.039 work too. He's helped out quite a few of my 1360 01:16:44.119 --> 01:16:46.840 listeners and I've gotten good reports on Eric. So far, 1361 01:16:47.000 --> 01:16:50.600 so great. But anyway you get a free roof inspection, 1362 01:16:50.720 --> 01:16:52.800 they're never going to tell you something that's not true. 1363 01:16:53.159 --> 01:16:55.039 You got a problem up there, they'll explain it to you. 1364 01:16:56.000 --> 01:16:59.359 They're good about dealing with emergency services too. My friend 1365 01:16:59.439 --> 01:17:01.880 Steve had with his son. After Steve had his roof 1366 01:17:01.920 --> 01:17:03.760 repaired by fast and Pro, he was so impressed with 1367 01:17:03.840 --> 01:17:05.119 the crew. And his son had a leak in the 1368 01:17:05.239 --> 01:17:09.520 roof during a torrential downpour. Fastened Pro to the rescue 1369 01:17:09.600 --> 01:17:12.840 that very day and they treated them well and problem solved. 1370 01:17:12.960 --> 01:17:15.479 That's what they're all about. Any kind of roof they 1371 01:17:15.560 --> 01:17:18.600 do it. They do exterior projects as well, like railing 1372 01:17:18.680 --> 01:17:22.119 and siding, and they do custom metal work box cutters. 1373 01:17:22.159 --> 01:17:25.239 They can you know, refinish them or build them from scratch. 1374 01:17:25.800 --> 01:17:27.880 They do it all and they do it in a 1375 01:17:27.960 --> 01:17:31.359 superior way. And again it comes begins with honesty. They 1376 01:17:31.359 --> 01:17:35.319 are very honest, decent people and a great crew. Your 1377 01:17:35.359 --> 01:17:37.800 place will be cleaner after they're done repairing. You're fixing 1378 01:17:37.840 --> 01:17:39.720 your roof, and before they got there.

Looking forward to the return of Dave 1410 01:19:17.239 --> 01:19:19.640 Williams from the Taxpayer Protection Alliance, first time out of 1411 01:19:19.640 --> 01:19:21.720 the gate in twenty twenty five. I'll join us regularly 1412 01:19:21.800 --> 01:19:24.199 as throughout the year as he always does, be talking 1413 01:19:24.199 --> 01:19:26.760 about putting the lame and lame Duck Congress comments on 1414 01:19:27.119 --> 01:19:31.560 the Festivus Report. Ran Paul's Festivus Report, Reminding you that 1415 01:19:31.680 --> 01:19:34.680 you are paying for stupid things like bearded transvestites on 1416 01:19:34.880 --> 01:19:42.039 ice and shrimp on treadmill. And he loves talking about 1417 01:19:42.039 --> 01:19:44.479 taxpayer funded arenism. We'll talk about that with him as 1418 01:19:44.560 --> 01:19:46.840 well and get a kick out of Dave. He's a 1419 01:19:46.840 --> 01:19:52.800 good guy. Uh, whatever else is going on in the world, listen, 1420 01:19:53.000 --> 01:19:55.720 since the nineteen sixty four Surgeon General's report, everybody knows 1421 01:19:56.159 --> 01:19:57.239 cigarettes caused cancer. 1422 01:19:57.439 --> 01:19:57.560 Right. 1423 01:19:58.039 --> 01:20:00.439 They're addicted because they have nicotine in him. But the 1424 01:20:00.520 --> 01:20:03.840 cancer's part is the tar and the other components of 1425 01:20:03.920 --> 01:20:08.199 tobacco that burn when you smoke them. So moving over 1426 01:20:08.279 --> 01:20:10.840 to vapes, if you vape, you get the nicotine delivery part. 1427 01:20:10.920 --> 01:20:13.239 I don't know if they fully analyze what's in the 1428 01:20:13.439 --> 01:20:17.359 vapor part, but you get the nicotine without the concern 1429 01:20:17.520 --> 01:20:22.079 of the tar and other carcinogenic things that cigarettes burn. 1430 01:20:22.199 --> 01:20:25.119 But the point is the nicotine's the addictive part. So 1431 01:20:25.199 --> 01:20:27.399 what the Food and Drug Administration is doing now they 1432 01:20:27.479 --> 01:20:30.800 want to effectively ban cigarettes that are currently on the 1433 01:20:30.880 --> 01:20:35.119 market now by forcing tobacco companies to lower the nicotine 1434 01:20:35.199 --> 01:20:38.000 levels to the point where there's so little nicotine in 1435 01:20:38.079 --> 01:20:40.840 it that you won't get addicted, at least future generations won't, 1436 01:20:41.319 --> 01:20:44.079 and some interesting observations from the former Assistant director of 1437 01:20:44.079 --> 01:20:46.800 the US Bureau Alcohol, Tobacco, on Firearms and Explosives. The 1438 01:20:46.840 --> 01:20:50.119 current director of the Tobacco Law Enforcement doctor and Network, 1439 01:20:50.159 --> 01:20:56.279 a guy interviewed by Fox News, Rick Mariano's if this 1440 01:20:56.399 --> 01:20:59.960 band goes into effect and the Tobacco Band has completed 1441 01:21:00.079 --> 01:21:03.760 regulatory review, proposed rule has not yet been finalized, but 1442 01:21:03.840 --> 01:21:07.600 they're moving this forward, he said. Biden's ban is a 1443 01:21:07.640 --> 01:21:10.960 gift with the bow and balloons to organize crime, cartels 1444 01:21:11.000 --> 01:21:14.520 with it, whether it's cartels, Chinese organized crime, or Russian mafia. 1445 01:21:14.520 --> 01:21:16.880 It's going to keep America smoking and it's going to 1446 01:21:16.920 --> 01:21:20.159 make sure streets are more violent. Remember the sale of 1447 01:21:20.319 --> 01:21:23.760 Lucy's and we had local law enforcement trying to prevent 1448 01:21:23.880 --> 01:21:26.199 the sale of loose cigarettes in New York. That didn't 1449 01:21:26.239 --> 01:21:36.800 go real well. It's also been pointed out that people 1450 01:21:36.920 --> 01:21:41.760 who are currently addicted to nicotine via cigarettes and smoke cigarettes, 1451 01:21:41.800 --> 01:21:43.520 if you lower the amount of nicotine and the people 1452 01:21:43.520 --> 01:21:46.000 are likely to smoke more of them in an effort 1453 01:21:46.079 --> 01:21:49.800 to get that nicotine out that no longer exists or 1454 01:21:49.840 --> 01:21:52.560 that's been reduced down to a very modest or minimal level. 1455 01:21:54.319 --> 01:21:56.399 He said, the decision being thrown down the public's throat 1456 01:21:56.399 --> 01:21:58.960 without one ounce of thought in preparation. Nobody's sat down 1457 01:21:59.000 --> 01:22:01.279 with law enforcement. Nobody sat down with any doctors, no 1458 01:22:01.319 --> 01:22:03.640 one sat down with any regulators to find out, Hey, look, 1459 01:22:04.239 --> 01:22:07.239 what are the unintended ramifications? Is such a poor choice, 1460 01:22:08.880 --> 01:22:11.479 and that's what I'm going to call it, a poor choice, 1461 01:22:11.560 --> 01:22:15.079 Marianna has said. He already pointed out the Mexican cartels 1462 01:22:15.119 --> 01:22:18.399 are already well positioned to bring illegal tobacco across the border. 1463 01:22:18.720 --> 01:22:21.279 So because you know, you have American manufactured cigarettes, but 1464 01:22:21.359 --> 01:22:23.479 they can make them elsewhere that aren't subject to the 1465 01:22:23.560 --> 01:22:27.199 reduced nicotine levels, Meaning that's just one more black market 1466 01:22:27.239 --> 01:22:30.319 product that'll be entering the United States and probably pretty easily. 1467 01:22:30.439 --> 01:22:33.600 So you said, while Chinese criminal organization says some of 1468 01:22:33.640 --> 01:22:37.319 the best counterfeit operations stretching from baby formula cigarettes and 1469 01:22:37.359 --> 01:22:40.159 Russian organized crime groups have their foot in the door 1470 01:22:40.319 --> 01:22:44.239 in cities across the nation, including in bodegas and other 1471 01:22:44.640 --> 01:22:48.199 stores that sell tobacco products. Now, you can couple this 1472 01:22:48.479 --> 01:22:51.760 with the federal government banning vape products as well, which 1473 01:22:51.760 --> 01:22:54.520 they're in the middle of doing. So your local vape 1474 01:22:54.560 --> 01:22:57.640 store probably won't be in existence very soon down the road. 1475 01:22:59.039 --> 01:23:03.239 You know, I'm not recommending anybody start smoking, not recommending 1476 01:23:03.279 --> 01:23:06.680 anybody start babing. Nicotine is addictive. We all know that 1477 01:23:08.079 --> 01:23:10.319 a lot of us make poor choices in our lives. 1478 01:23:10.359 --> 01:23:13.319 But isn't that part of being a human being, the 1479 01:23:13.399 --> 01:23:16.159 idea you have a choice, the idea that you know, 1480 01:23:16.359 --> 01:23:19.039 maybe a little bit of nicotine makes my life a happier, 1481 01:23:19.159 --> 01:23:21.800 better thing. It's like drinking. Oh that's right, they said, 1482 01:23:21.880 --> 01:23:25.520 drinking now is carcinogenic. They want liquor companies to put 1483 01:23:26.399 --> 01:23:29.520 warning labels that drinking will cause cancer. The jury's kind 1484 01:23:29.520 --> 01:23:31.760 of out on that one. See, this is the government 1485 01:23:31.880 --> 01:23:35.920 micromanaging the individual affairs of our lives, telling us what 1486 01:23:36.039 --> 01:23:38.319 we can and can't do. I don't know in what 1487 01:23:38.520 --> 01:23:40.399 name now that some people will say quick to point out, well, 1488 01:23:40.439 --> 01:23:45.000 wait a second, if someone gets sick or cancer as 1489 01:23:45.039 --> 01:23:47.359 a consequence of smoking, then I've got to pay for that. 1490 01:23:48.479 --> 01:23:50.920 It's going to cost my it's going to create a 1491 01:23:51.199 --> 01:23:55.159 bigger expense for the country because of the added medical 1492 01:23:55.279 --> 01:23:57.479 expenses that go along with having a care for people 1493 01:23:57.520 --> 01:23:59.720 who made the poor choice and got addicted and started 1494 01:23:59.720 --> 01:24:02.880 to smokeking cigarettes. To see, there in lies the problem 1495 01:24:02.920 --> 01:24:04.520 that I'd like to point out all the time. Why 1496 01:24:04.640 --> 01:24:09.159 are you paying for the stupid consequences of someone else's 1497 01:24:09.199 --> 01:24:13.840 bad choices. That's the problem to me with the idea 1498 01:24:13.880 --> 01:24:16.560 of this collective socialism that I'm supposed to pay for 1499 01:24:16.680 --> 01:24:18.720 your stuff and you're supposed to pay for my stuff. 1500 01:24:19.039 --> 01:24:20.960 If you take that element out of the equation, then 1501 01:24:21.000 --> 01:24:22.920 that's just someone over there making a poor choice and 1502 01:24:23.000 --> 01:24:26.000 ignoring science and the sound advice from their doctors and 1503 01:24:26.119 --> 01:24:28.760 researchers who have been pointing out since nineteen sixty four 1504 01:24:29.760 --> 01:24:33.760 that smoking causes cancer.

Dave Williams, great to have you 1514 01:25:06.840 --> 01:25:07.760 back on this year. 1515 01:25:09.079 --> 01:25:11.319 Happy New Year, Brian and it's good to hear my 1516 01:25:11.479 --> 01:25:13.920 theme song, good to hear the old streetcar. 1517 01:25:16.680 --> 01:25:18.760 And I was talking to Joe before he came on. 1518 01:25:18.920 --> 01:25:21.760 He was mentioning the big snowstorm you had, and of 1519 01:25:21.880 --> 01:25:24.600 course that streetcar that was chucking. 1520 01:25:24.319 --> 01:25:27.119 Along because it was and they actually, you know, it 1521 01:25:27.239 --> 01:25:31.439 was kind of really a crazy, great illustration of the 1522 01:25:31.520 --> 01:25:35.119 allocation of resources, scarce resources, I might add, given the 1523 01:25:35.159 --> 01:25:38.119 financial situation going on the city of Cincinnati. They actually 1524 01:25:38.319 --> 01:25:42.960 kept the tracks on the streetcar clear. They shoveled them 1525 01:25:43.119 --> 01:25:45.640 or otherwise you know, treated them. But there was a 1526 01:25:45.760 --> 01:25:47.279 reporter out in the middle of the street with a 1527 01:25:47.319 --> 01:25:51.960 picture of they call it the Connector moving along, although 1528 01:25:52.279 --> 01:25:55.920 not a single human being in sight along the long 1529 01:25:56.000 --> 01:25:58.840 stretch of roadway that they photographed it on. Certainly, and 1530 01:25:59.079 --> 01:26:01.880 the which is typically the case, no one on the 1531 01:26:01.960 --> 01:26:04.600 streetcar when they took the photograph. But in spite of 1532 01:26:04.640 --> 01:26:06.960 the fact that they failed to shovel a lot of 1533 01:26:07.119 --> 01:26:09.840 roads in the city of Cincinnati so people could actually 1534 01:26:10.000 --> 01:26:12.079 use them, you could sure get on the street car 1535 01:26:12.199 --> 01:26:13.600 if you're able to make it downtown. 1536 01:26:14.720 --> 01:26:19.119 It's amazing how city officials, national officials doubled down on 1537 01:26:19.359 --> 01:26:23.359 bad ideas, right, is that they just can't admit when 1538 01:26:23.399 --> 01:26:27.039 they've made the wrong mistake, and they just they can't 1539 01:26:27.079 --> 01:26:28.960 move on with it, and they have to double down 1540 01:26:29.239 --> 01:26:30.000 on their mistakes. 1541 01:26:30.039 --> 01:26:33.800 It's so typical. It really is get they get singular 1542 01:26:33.880 --> 01:26:36.439 focused and that's all they care about, and they don't 1543 01:26:36.479 --> 01:26:39.159 care that everything else is falling apart. We regularly complain 1544 01:26:39.239 --> 01:26:42.840 here in the city about the roads, just the deteriorating 1545 01:26:42.960 --> 01:26:47.000 and and just worsening state of many of the roads. 1546 01:26:47.039 --> 01:26:49.880 They haven't been cared for. And every calendar year that 1547 01:26:50.039 --> 01:26:54.720 rolls by, Dave, they fall further behind on the responsibility. 1548 01:26:54.720 --> 01:26:57.840 They're supposed to do X number of roads annually and 1549 01:26:57.960 --> 01:26:59.880 they never even meet that lone goals. 1550 01:27:00.079 --> 01:27:02.840 So the amount of Bryan, Bryan, think of this, So 1551 01:27:03.039 --> 01:27:05.680 the amount of money they spend on the streetcar per year, 1552 01:27:06.000 --> 01:27:09.680 how many potholes could that fill every year? And I'm 1553 01:27:09.720 --> 01:27:11.520 serious about this, is if you look at what it 1554 01:27:11.600 --> 01:27:15.560 costs to fill a pothole, right, and what it costs. 1555 01:27:15.399 --> 01:27:17.520 To operate the streetcar five millionaires. 1556 01:27:18.640 --> 01:27:21.000 There needs to be an analysis here of like how 1557 01:27:21.119 --> 01:27:23.479 much the streets because you've just alluded to this, like 1558 01:27:23.560 --> 01:27:25.840 how much the streets would be so much better and 1559 01:27:26.199 --> 01:27:28.159 the damage to the cars would be less. I mean, 1560 01:27:28.239 --> 01:27:30.560 that's what people need to realize, is that this money 1561 01:27:30.680 --> 01:27:34.159 is being taken from somewhere. So when you're bottling out 1562 01:27:34.199 --> 01:27:36.560 in that pothole, think about the money that's going to 1563 01:27:36.640 --> 01:27:37.159 the street car. 1564 01:27:37.479 --> 01:27:37.680 Yeah. 1565 01:27:37.760 --> 01:27:39.039 Really, And then we're going to get to it a 1566 01:27:39.079 --> 01:27:41.319 little bit. But now they're talking about building a new 1567 01:27:42.119 --> 01:27:45.840 arena here in the city, which we know you and 1568 01:27:45.920 --> 01:27:48.359 I both love. Must have so much cash. We did, 1569 01:27:48.439 --> 01:27:51.880 We must have so much money you can just spend, 1570 01:27:53.000 --> 01:27:57.720 just flush with cash. Anyhow, wonderful article, David McGarry. You 1571 01:27:57.760 --> 01:27:59.960 can find it at protecting Taxpayers dot org where she's 1572 01:28:00.000 --> 01:28:04.199 the tax Payer Protection Alliance web page. Consumer Financial Protection 1573 01:28:04.319 --> 01:28:09.520 Bureaus added again targeting credit card reward programs. And this 1574 01:28:09.680 --> 01:28:12.680 is actually almost I mean, if if it was a 1575 01:28:12.760 --> 01:28:18.880 Babylon b article, we could laugh at it. But apparently 1576 01:28:19.199 --> 01:28:22.920 like two people in the world have complained about credit 1577 01:28:23.000 --> 01:28:26.439 card rewards programs, even though there are hundreds and hundreds 1578 01:28:26.479 --> 01:28:32.239 of thousands of cards out in the world. Consumer Financial 1579 01:28:32.319 --> 01:28:34.680 Protection Bureau has decided it's going to go after credit 1580 01:28:34.760 --> 01:28:37.479 card reward programs. How they're going to solve the problem 1581 01:28:37.600 --> 01:28:40.520 that really doesn't exist, Dave, And what is the problem 1582 01:28:40.600 --> 01:28:42.479 that they're claiming they want to address. 1583 01:28:44.119 --> 01:28:47.000 Wow, this is the most baffling thing that we've been 1584 01:28:47.079 --> 01:28:50.520 talking about for the past couple of years. Is that 1585 01:28:51.159 --> 01:28:54.159 a certain member of Congress, this is Dick durban from Illinois. 1586 01:28:54.520 --> 01:28:59.560 Oh yeah, Dick Durbin was flying back to Illinois and 1587 01:28:59.640 --> 01:29:01.960 a fly attendants walking down and she said, if you 1588 01:29:02.000 --> 01:29:05.520 sign up for this credit card, you get fifty thousand 1589 01:29:05.600 --> 01:29:06.640 miles and you're. 1590 01:29:06.560 --> 01:29:09.039 Part of the rewards program. And He's like, what's going 1591 01:29:09.119 --> 01:29:13.319 on here? Why are airlines doing this? And this is 1592 01:29:13.359 --> 01:29:14.199 how it all started. 1593 01:29:14.319 --> 01:29:15.239 I am not lying to you. 1594 01:29:15.439 --> 01:29:16.520 This is how this started. 1595 01:29:16.680 --> 01:29:20.199 And now he has convinced the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau 1596 01:29:20.520 --> 01:29:23.239 to go after credit card rewards programs. Now, mind you, 1597 01:29:23.960 --> 01:29:27.840 these same rewards programs are used by millions of people 1598 01:29:28.039 --> 01:29:32.960 of all income levels to travel to get discounts at 1599 01:29:33.039 --> 01:29:36.359 the supermarket. You know, rewards programs cover so many things. 1600 01:29:36.439 --> 01:29:39.039 But this takes one member of Congress to have an 1601 01:29:39.079 --> 01:29:39.840 idiotic moment. 1602 01:29:40.079 --> 01:29:43.039 So wait a second. The rewards program like, for example, 1603 01:29:43.079 --> 01:29:47.359 when I use my credit card and it's American Airline, 1604 01:29:47.359 --> 01:29:48.920 I used to fly to American all the time, when 1605 01:29:48.920 --> 01:29:50.520 I was practicing law in Chicago and I had to 1606 01:29:50.560 --> 01:29:52.399 travel a lot, and they had, you know, a big 1607 01:29:52.560 --> 01:29:54.319 major hub up there, and that was the airline of 1608 01:29:54.439 --> 01:29:59.279 choice for me. So I've been collecting American Airlines points 1609 01:30:00.039 --> 01:30:03.960 all my credit card purchases for years and years and years, 1610 01:30:04.039 --> 01:30:06.600 I mean a couple of decades worth. That's the kind 1611 01:30:06.640 --> 01:30:09.319 of reward program you're talking about, because I use those 1612 01:30:10.039 --> 01:30:12.760 to help pay for my entire family and my daughter's 1613 01:30:12.800 --> 01:30:16.119 fiance to fly out west to see Yellowstone National Park. 1614 01:30:16.680 --> 01:30:18.800 It was awesome. It was like, I finally am going 1615 01:30:18.880 --> 01:30:21.119 to get these back and I didn't have to pay 1616 01:30:21.239 --> 01:30:23.680 the four or five thousand dollars it was going to 1617 01:30:23.720 --> 01:30:26.600 cost to buy five airline tickets. I was really happy 1618 01:30:26.640 --> 01:30:31.239 about that. A lot of people are how is that 1619 01:30:31.319 --> 01:30:31.920 a bad thing? 1620 01:30:32.000 --> 01:30:36.399 Though, Because what Dick Durbin and others are saying now 1621 01:30:36.640 --> 01:30:40.239 is that it's anti competitive, that they're hooking people into credit, 1622 01:30:41.039 --> 01:30:43.680 that it's manipulative that the credit card company and there's 1623 01:30:43.720 --> 01:30:47.960 no competition with credit card companies because it's only Visa. 1624 01:30:47.720 --> 01:30:51.439 And MasterCard and American Express. I mean, there's a whole 1625 01:30:51.479 --> 01:30:53.760 host of rationale for this, but none of them make 1626 01:30:53.800 --> 01:30:56.760 any sense. First of all, credit card companies are very 1627 01:30:56.840 --> 01:31:00.359 competitive because it's not Visa and Mastercard's the different banks 1628 01:31:00.399 --> 01:31:03.479 that are competing with a different interest rates. So there's 1629 01:31:03.520 --> 01:31:05.439 a whole host of things you can choose from. And 1630 01:31:05.880 --> 01:31:07.960 who cares if an airline wants to give you fifty 1631 01:31:08.039 --> 01:31:10.159 thousand miles if you sign up for their credit card. 1632 01:31:10.800 --> 01:31:13.199 I mean, well, you know the other component. The other 1633 01:31:13.279 --> 01:31:16.159 component of this is does Dick have a problem with 1634 01:31:16.239 --> 01:31:19.119 people getting credit cards? Because last time I checked, and 1635 01:31:19.199 --> 01:31:21.239 I know this to be a fact. If you want 1636 01:31:21.319 --> 01:31:24.960 a good credit score, if you're going to buy a house, 1637 01:31:25.039 --> 01:31:26.880 for example, the factor in your credit score, and you 1638 01:31:26.920 --> 01:31:28.359 can go up to eight hundred and fifty on your 1639 01:31:28.359 --> 01:31:30.159 credit score, but you need a good The better your 1640 01:31:30.199 --> 01:31:31.880 credit score, the more likely it is you're going to 1641 01:31:31.960 --> 01:31:36.000 get a well good terms and conditions. You are considered 1642 01:31:36.039 --> 01:31:39.239 a low risk. And if you have more credit available, 1643 01:31:39.640 --> 01:31:44.000 the higher your credit score goes. So is he going 1644 01:31:44.079 --> 01:31:46.800 to reform the entire credit score thing as well? Maybe 1645 01:31:46.840 --> 01:31:48.720 that needs reform. I don't know, but I mean that 1646 01:31:49.039 --> 01:31:51.439 just going to the point it's important that you have 1647 01:31:51.720 --> 01:31:54.880 available credit, not that you use it all and max 1648 01:31:54.960 --> 01:31:57.640 them out and get charged thirty percent interest rate for 1649 01:31:57.760 --> 01:32:00.560 not you know, just getting rid of your balance every month. 1650 01:32:00.640 --> 01:32:04.119 But you need credit available and if someone's willing to 1651 01:32:04.199 --> 01:32:07.920 offer you an extra fifty thousand miles, that will help 1652 01:32:08.000 --> 01:32:11.319 you in one respect by increasing the amount of credit 1653 01:32:11.359 --> 01:32:13.880 available to you, plus you get an extra fifty thousand miles. 1654 01:32:13.920 --> 01:32:16.319 It doesn't mean you have to use the damn card. 1655 01:32:17.560 --> 01:32:20.640 Exactly exactly, and listen, I think, yeah, the credit card 1656 01:32:20.720 --> 01:32:24.319 industry is under a lot of pressure from Congress because 1657 01:32:24.560 --> 01:32:27.920 there's talk about capping interest rates on credit cards at 1658 01:32:27.960 --> 01:32:32.880 ten percent. Now, superficially, that sounds great for consumers, but 1659 01:32:32.960 --> 01:32:33.760 what's going to happen. 1660 01:32:33.760 --> 01:32:37.399 It's going to squeeze credit because credit card companies are 1661 01:32:37.479 --> 01:32:40.239 not going to give credit cards to people that may 1662 01:32:40.319 --> 01:32:42.600 not have great credit that need to build that and 1663 01:32:42.800 --> 01:32:46.079 establish it. So you're going to have people that cannot 1664 01:32:46.119 --> 01:32:49.199 get a traditional credit card go underground and be paying 1665 01:32:49.319 --> 01:32:52.520 twenty five and thirty percent. So again, is the government 1666 01:32:52.640 --> 01:32:56.640 manipulating the market. Let it be, Let the market be, 1667 01:32:57.119 --> 01:32:59.439 and there's no need for them to do this. I mean, 1668 01:32:59.479 --> 01:33:02.239 there are big fish to fry in this country. For Congress, 1669 01:33:02.279 --> 01:33:04.920 we're talking about a thirty six trillion dollar debt. We're 1670 01:33:04.960 --> 01:33:08.479 talking about border security, tax cuts. This is what Congress 1671 01:33:08.520 --> 01:33:12.319 needs to be laser focused on, not credit card rewards 1672 01:33:12.359 --> 01:33:15.039 and whether or not we can use, you know, get 1673 01:33:15.119 --> 01:33:17.920 fifty thousand miles by signing up for a credit card. 1674 01:33:17.960 --> 01:33:19.760 It's just a nonsensical issue. 1675 01:33:20.000 --> 01:33:23.560 Well, does the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau even have the 1676 01:33:23.760 --> 01:33:25.640 authority to do this? 1677 01:33:27.800 --> 01:33:31.960 They do because they have this weird authority. First of all, 1678 01:33:32.039 --> 01:33:34.920 they don't have a budget, like Congress doesn't set their budget. 1679 01:33:35.800 --> 01:33:38.720 They determine what their budget is every year up to 1680 01:33:38.760 --> 01:33:40.359 a certain amount like twelve percent. 1681 01:33:41.800 --> 01:33:42.439 You know, the Fed. 1682 01:33:43.159 --> 01:33:46.079 The Fed determines their budget, so the Congress has nothing 1683 01:33:46.199 --> 01:33:48.720 to do with this. At also their budgets. I believe 1684 01:33:48.720 --> 01:33:51.359 it's about seven hundred million dollars right now, and it 1685 01:33:51.399 --> 01:33:54.119 can grow to eight hundred million dollars without Congress batting 1686 01:33:54.199 --> 01:33:54.520 an eye. 1687 01:33:55.000 --> 01:33:58.920 But this is controlling the terms and conditions of contractual 1688 01:33:59.000 --> 01:34:02.359 relationships between beween credit card companies and the individual who 1689 01:34:02.439 --> 01:34:05.560 applies for the credit card. I guess I want to 1690 01:34:05.600 --> 01:34:08.920 know how this independent, you know, an agency has any 1691 01:34:09.000 --> 01:34:13.239 authority whatsoever to manipulate the terms of conditions between these 1692 01:34:13.319 --> 01:34:16.680 two separate individuals or the company issuing it and the 1693 01:34:16.760 --> 01:34:20.640 person signing up for it, how under what government law 1694 01:34:20.880 --> 01:34:23.920 under me? That's what I'm saying here. This seems and 1695 01:34:24.000 --> 01:34:27.640 this seems to be like one of those extra regulatory exercises. 1696 01:34:27.920 --> 01:34:30.960 Congress never gave them authority to do anything like this, 1697 01:34:31.119 --> 01:34:33.920 and yet here they go doing it, and somehow we're 1698 01:34:33.920 --> 01:34:35.600 supposed to comply. It sounds to me like this is 1699 01:34:35.640 --> 01:34:39.439 going to result in litigation. Oh, we hit the nail 1700 01:34:39.479 --> 01:34:39.800 on the head. 1701 01:34:39.840 --> 01:34:41.840 It absolutely will result in litigation. 1702 01:34:42.479 --> 01:34:44.880 And again that's going to take months and years, and 1703 01:34:45.640 --> 01:34:49.600 maybe we get a court that sides with consumers, maybe 1704 01:34:49.680 --> 01:34:51.840 we don't. I mean, that's the problem is that at 1705 01:34:51.880 --> 01:34:54.880 some point it's a crapshoot right on what course decide, 1706 01:34:54.960 --> 01:34:58.039 and if it even gets to the Supreme Court, who 1707 01:34:58.159 --> 01:35:01.479 knows what happens. But we don't need the CSPB, we 1708 01:35:01.560 --> 01:35:03.399 don't need the Consumer Financial Protection Peer. 1709 01:35:03.520 --> 01:35:08.680 It's just it's unnecessary, totally unnecessary. I'm just completely baffled 1710 01:35:08.720 --> 01:35:10.159 by this, Dave. And You're right, this is one of 1711 01:35:10.159 --> 01:35:12.039 the stranger, more baffling things that you and I have 1712 01:35:12.119 --> 01:35:14.439 talked about in a long time. Stick around, We've got 1713 01:35:14.479 --> 01:35:16.800 more baffling things to talk about. Including what you and 1714 01:35:16.880 --> 01:35:20.560 I paid for through our labor, like shrimp on treadmills 1715 01:35:20.600 --> 01:35:24.079 and bearded transvestites on ice, A couple of comments about 1716 01:35:24.159 --> 01:35:28.520 Rampaul's Festus report plus taxpayer funded Arena's more with Dave 1717 01:35:28.560 --> 01:35:30.680 Williams coming up after a moment seven sixteen.

I would like to express 1775 01:38:19.760 --> 01:38:22.640 taxation in the form of slavery, because they can take 1776 01:38:22.720 --> 01:38:25.880 whatever they want by way of the taxation level, and 1777 01:38:26.000 --> 01:38:28.079 after we work and slave over it and they take 1778 01:38:28.159 --> 01:38:30.600 the percentage of the slice, they don't quite get enough. 1779 01:38:30.640 --> 01:38:32.960 And that's why we are spending two trillion dollars more 1780 01:38:33.039 --> 01:38:35.600 annually than they even take in in taxes. Then they 1781 01:38:35.680 --> 01:38:38.279 go ahead and spend it on stuff like I don't know, 1782 01:38:38.920 --> 01:38:42.359 shrimp on treadmills and bearded transvestites on ice, helping other 1783 01:38:42.439 --> 01:38:44.720 countries with their border security. I mean, we could go 1784 01:38:44.840 --> 01:38:46.359 on and on and on. It's all laid out in 1785 01:38:46.439 --> 01:38:49.199 glorious gory detail in the Festivus Report. 1786 01:38:50.600 --> 01:38:51.359 It sure is. 1787 01:38:51.479 --> 01:38:53.640 And this is something that rand Paul has been doing 1788 01:38:53.720 --> 01:38:56.520 for a number of years now. And we're talking and 1789 01:38:56.600 --> 01:39:00.640 this year he lists a trillion dollars in wasteful and 1790 01:39:00.760 --> 01:39:03.800 unnecessary studying. Then you talk about, you know, taxation, if 1791 01:39:03.840 --> 01:39:07.600 you make one small mistake on your tax return, yet 1792 01:39:07.720 --> 01:39:11.520 what the irs is that? Take notice and watch out? 1793 01:39:11.760 --> 01:39:14.880 But you know this is this an insane amount of spending. 1794 01:39:15.000 --> 01:39:18.720 And I mean, there's so many things that jump out 1795 01:39:18.760 --> 01:39:21.720 of me, but there's one item in here. And it's 1796 01:39:21.760 --> 01:39:26.079 fifteen million dollars to turn the Internal Revenue Service into 1797 01:39:26.520 --> 01:39:29.720 the tax preparer. So this was supposed to be a 1798 01:39:29.800 --> 01:39:32.239 study to see if the IRS should do this. The 1799 01:39:32.439 --> 01:39:35.640 IRS lied to Congress, they said they were going to 1800 01:39:35.680 --> 01:39:37.319 study this, and they said, oh, no, here we go. 1801 01:39:37.960 --> 01:39:41.479 Here's the program, here's the software that we built, and 1802 01:39:42.000 --> 01:39:45.359 it is wildly unpopular. Go figure because they did a 1803 01:39:45.479 --> 01:39:50.239 pilot program this past year and they said, oh, ninety 1804 01:39:50.279 --> 01:39:53.039 percent of the people love direct file. They love for 1805 01:39:53.119 --> 01:39:56.439 the IRS to do their the returns, prepare the returns. 1806 01:39:56.640 --> 01:39:59.479 So what we did, Brian, is we submitted a Freedom 1807 01:39:59.520 --> 01:40:04.159 of Information Act request and we got all of the responses. 1808 01:40:04.520 --> 01:40:07.600 They listed all their responses. It was not ninety percent. 1809 01:40:07.880 --> 01:40:10.319 It was less than fifty percent of the people who 1810 01:40:10.399 --> 01:40:13.319 said that they liked direct file and that it was 1811 01:40:13.680 --> 01:40:14.199 it was working. 1812 01:40:14.279 --> 01:40:17.720 Now here's the worst part of this. And we've heard whistleblowers. 1813 01:40:17.720 --> 01:40:21.960 They've called us and said, I've been audited that IRS 1814 01:40:22.119 --> 01:40:23.239 prepared my taxes. 1815 01:40:24.159 --> 01:40:25.760 Now they're auditing me. 1816 01:40:26.359 --> 01:40:27.239 I don't know what to do. 1817 01:40:27.720 --> 01:40:29.760 So they are going back to H and R block 1818 01:40:29.840 --> 01:40:32.800 to these other private companies saying can you help me? 1819 01:40:33.880 --> 01:40:36.119 And I'm being audited by the IRS, and H and 1820 01:40:36.199 --> 01:40:38.800 R Block is saying, we didn't do your taxes, so 1821 01:40:39.119 --> 01:40:41.920 we're gonna have to charge you to get you out 1822 01:40:41.960 --> 01:40:42.479 of this mess. 1823 01:40:42.560 --> 01:40:42.760 Yeah. 1824 01:40:42.920 --> 01:40:47.960 So the IRS who prepared the taxes did it incorrectly, 1825 01:40:48.119 --> 01:40:51.079 so now they're being they're auditing the taxpayer. I mean, 1826 01:40:51.119 --> 01:40:53.520 this is Orwellian to say the least, right. I mean, 1827 01:40:53.600 --> 01:40:56.640 this is just beyond Yeah. 1828 01:40:56.880 --> 01:41:01.399 Well, it shocks me not that the way that they 1829 01:41:01.520 --> 01:41:04.279 prepared the software, that the actual federal government would have 1830 01:41:04.279 --> 01:41:07.319 gone out and uniformally created its own version of dealing 1831 01:41:07.359 --> 01:41:10.560 with the tax code. But more fundamentally, I think there 1832 01:41:10.720 --> 01:41:13.199 is no reason in hell the tax code needs to 1833 01:41:13.199 --> 01:41:15.680 be as complex and as ridiculous as it is. It 1834 01:41:15.840 --> 01:41:19.439 is the mechanism through which the government manipulates behavior, and 1835 01:41:19.560 --> 01:41:22.319 that just irks me to no end. Let's get to 1836 01:41:22.399 --> 01:41:25.439 a flat tax. Let's get to a fair something that's simple. 1837 01:41:25.760 --> 01:41:28.560 No more ride offs, no more incentives, no more dangling 1838 01:41:28.680 --> 01:41:31.119 carrots of you know, incentive from the federal government through 1839 01:41:31.199 --> 01:41:34.359 the tax code. Just give me the damn fifteen percent 1840 01:41:34.760 --> 01:41:38.159 and that's it. One page, single file, period, end of story. 1841 01:41:38.960 --> 01:41:42.760 How why is that not a great idea other than 1842 01:41:42.800 --> 01:41:44.880 the fact, it's going to give up, take away their 1843 01:41:44.920 --> 01:41:46.039 power to manipulate us. 1844 01:41:47.560 --> 01:41:51.159 And the tons of lobbyists in you know, on Capitol 1845 01:41:51.199 --> 01:41:54.159 Hill that are keeping the tax code complicated because they 1846 01:41:54.239 --> 01:41:56.439 want their write offs, they want their special treatment. 1847 01:41:56.880 --> 01:42:00.479 I mean, it's really lobbyist in government working together. Absolutely 1848 01:42:00.640 --> 01:42:01.279 is Yep. 1849 01:42:01.359 --> 01:42:03.319 No doubt about it. Where are the lobbys for the 1850 01:42:03.439 --> 01:42:06.600 tax preparers out there fighting against the IRS taking over 1851 01:42:06.840 --> 01:42:09.720 their role in preparing taxes? Don't they have enough voices 1852 01:42:09.760 --> 01:42:12.359 out there and enough lobbying money to prevent that from happening. 1853 01:42:13.600 --> 01:42:15.439 You would think they would, But I mean, look what 1854 01:42:15.520 --> 01:42:18.000 we have now, and now the IRS wants to expand it. 1855 01:42:18.079 --> 01:42:20.359 This was a pilot program for twelve states. Now they 1856 01:42:20.439 --> 01:42:23.720 want to expand it to all fifty states, because you know, 1857 01:42:23.760 --> 01:42:25.880 if you're going to fail at twelve, why not fail 1858 01:42:25.920 --> 01:42:26.359 at fifty? 1859 01:42:26.479 --> 01:42:26.600 Right? 1860 01:42:28.800 --> 01:42:33.680 Amen? Very briefly, you got to comment about taxpayer funded 1861 01:42:33.680 --> 01:42:35.560 arenas forty part company. I saw it on the list 1862 01:42:35.600 --> 01:42:36.439 of topics. 1863 01:42:36.159 --> 01:42:39.479 Dave, I'm sorry, the taxpayer funded. 1864 01:42:39.319 --> 01:42:42.439 Arenas, Oh my gosh, an. 1865 01:42:42.319 --> 01:42:43.760 Absolute waste of money. 1866 01:42:43.840 --> 01:42:47.439 This is corporate welfare for billionaires, and there's no reason 1867 01:42:47.520 --> 01:42:51.399 that taxpayers should be paying for the construction of any arenas. 1868 01:42:51.479 --> 01:42:55.399 It's just it is the most ludicrous things that locals 1869 01:42:55.399 --> 01:42:57.840 are spending money on these days, and it just keeps 1870 01:42:57.880 --> 01:42:58.520 on happening. 1871 01:42:59.000 --> 01:43:02.159 What I don't understand is that it keeps on happening. 1872 01:43:02.319 --> 01:43:06.439 And we've fought these battles in Kansas City in Florida, 1873 01:43:06.680 --> 01:43:08.920 and you know, we've had some success, but they just 1874 01:43:09.000 --> 01:43:10.079 still keep on popping up. 1875 01:43:10.479 --> 01:43:12.800 Well, I think it's because people get the idea that 1876 01:43:12.920 --> 01:43:17.800 they need that professional football team in their city. I 1877 01:43:17.840 --> 01:43:20.760 don't know for traditional reasons or because it's a magnet 1878 01:43:20.840 --> 01:43:23.119 for you know, people going to restaurants or something. But 1879 01:43:23.640 --> 01:43:26.199 I mean, there's a really, very very small number of 1880 01:43:26.239 --> 01:43:28.359 football teams in the grand scheme of things, and there 1881 01:43:28.399 --> 01:43:31.520 are hundreds and hundreds of cities in the country that 1882 01:43:31.680 --> 01:43:35.319 managed to get along fine without a professional sports team 1883 01:43:36.079 --> 01:43:38.439 on the taxpayer dollars. I just have to observe that. 1884 01:43:39.000 --> 01:43:41.399 Yeah, and Brian, so many studies have been done about 1885 01:43:41.399 --> 01:43:45.520 the economic activity generated by these arenas and stadiums. It 1886 01:43:45.680 --> 01:43:49.920 doesn't These arenas and stadiums do not generate economic activity 1887 01:43:50.000 --> 01:43:52.960 because people will spend their money elsewhere in the city. 1888 01:43:53.000 --> 01:43:56.479 It's just shifting spending your money from a restaurant to 1889 01:43:56.760 --> 01:43:59.319 an arena. So it doesn't bring in any new money, 1890 01:43:59.399 --> 01:44:02.439 and so many studies have been done. It's been exhaustive, 1891 01:44:02.479 --> 01:44:06.279 and almost every economist agrees and says no, this doesn't 1892 01:44:06.319 --> 01:44:07.560 create economic activity. 1893 01:44:07.880 --> 01:44:10.439 Plus, I enjoy watching a game at home much more 1894 01:44:10.520 --> 01:44:13.159 than getting in my car, driving downtown, paying for parking, 1895 01:44:13.239 --> 01:44:16.159 dealing with weather, and paying twelve fourteen to fifteen dollars 1896 01:44:16.239 --> 01:44:19.359 for a beer.

We're we're just kind 1959 01:47:15.319 --> 01:47:17.479 of a middle and middle of the pack kind of state. 1960 01:47:17.520 --> 01:47:18.960 When it comes to the rest of the stage. We 1961 01:47:19.039 --> 01:47:21.840 do need to have some taxation reform, but it apparently 1962 01:47:22.640 --> 01:47:26.359 it transcends that and something that Congressman Thomas Massey just 1963 01:47:26.399 --> 01:47:27.960 brought up the other day, the Rains Act. 1964 01:47:29.680 --> 01:47:33.880 Yeah, well we've got we've got a good track record, Brian, 1965 01:47:33.920 --> 01:47:36.479 I don't wanna, I don't want to, you know, shortstyle 1966 01:47:36.840 --> 01:47:37.399 the work. 1967 01:47:37.239 --> 01:47:39.000 That's been done over the last couple of decades. 1968 01:47:39.520 --> 01:47:41.720 But what we're really challenging folks to do, and that's 1969 01:47:41.760 --> 01:47:44.039 at the heart of our Buckeye Blueprint, is take some 1970 01:47:44.119 --> 01:47:46.560 of the big bold leaps forward. So when it comes 1971 01:47:46.600 --> 01:47:49.239 to taxes. We're on the right trajectory, but more to 1972 01:47:49.319 --> 01:47:52.439 be done. RAINS, though, is really exciting. How familiar are you, Brian, 1973 01:47:53.079 --> 01:47:55.319 with with the RAINS Act and what that's all about. 1974 01:47:55.640 --> 01:47:59.039 Well, as Congressman Massey explained to it, if any regulation 1975 01:47:59.279 --> 01:48:02.960 done by the regulatory administrative state that exists behind the 1976 01:48:03.000 --> 01:48:06.399 scenes are and behind the scenes are unelected officials has 1977 01:48:07.319 --> 01:48:11.720 a financial impact beyond a certain threshold, then the legislative 1978 01:48:11.760 --> 01:48:15.560 branch must actually approve the regulation and the action. 1979 01:48:17.079 --> 01:48:17.520 Correct. 1980 01:48:17.680 --> 01:48:20.159 This is a big This is a big leap, Brian, 1981 01:48:20.199 --> 01:48:22.880 because usually when we talk about regulatory reform, we're talking 1982 01:48:22.920 --> 01:48:27.520 about like clearing out the dust and cobwebs, how much 1983 01:48:27.600 --> 01:48:30.119 it's going to cost, or how much PaperWorks involved in 1984 01:48:30.199 --> 01:48:35.520 complying with the regulatory rules and rule makers. What RAINS does, though, 1985 01:48:35.600 --> 01:48:39.079 is really exciting, is that actually requires the regulators, right 1986 01:48:39.199 --> 01:48:43.720 the deep state, to go in and actually explain how 1987 01:48:43.840 --> 01:48:46.600 much it's going to cost economically. So if they put 1988 01:48:46.680 --> 01:48:49.359 these rules into place, you think about what like the 1989 01:48:49.439 --> 01:48:54.319 EPA does to energy production, right, what's the economic impact 1990 01:48:54.479 --> 01:48:57.800 of these rules that they're putting into place, And it 1991 01:48:57.920 --> 01:49:02.159 really upends the ways we think about regulatory regulations and 1992 01:49:02.319 --> 01:49:07.039 puts the onus on the regulators, not the businesses, to 1993 01:49:07.199 --> 01:49:10.880 make their argument for for why the benefits of the 1994 01:49:10.960 --> 01:49:16.439 regulation outweigh the economic burdening costs. It's impactful, it's big, 1995 01:49:16.560 --> 01:49:22.079 and it has a multi generational impact on how we 1996 01:49:22.239 --> 01:49:24.159 undo the big government. 1997 01:49:23.960 --> 01:49:26.960 With that question. And then once they make their argument 1998 01:49:27.439 --> 01:49:30.119 justifying the regulation and explaining how much it's going to 1999 01:49:30.199 --> 01:49:33.920 cost the taxpayers, then the legislator, the elected officials has 2000 01:49:34.000 --> 01:49:36.680 to actually approve it. They have to pass it into 2001 01:49:36.840 --> 01:49:40.640 law and say Okay, that's the hurdle that they'll never overcome. 2002 01:49:40.760 --> 01:49:43.079 And that's why we need the reins Act in place. 2003 01:49:43.159 --> 01:49:45.960 And there's anything I can do or my listeners can 2004 01:49:46.000 --> 01:49:48.000 do to help you accomplish that goal. We need to 2005 01:49:48.079 --> 01:49:51.000 know what that information is because everyone should get on 2006 01:49:51.119 --> 01:49:54.359 board with this one well, one hundred percent. 2007 01:49:54.760 --> 01:49:58.119 It exists in four states right now nationally. We plan 2008 01:49:58.199 --> 01:50:00.520 to bring it to a lot more. In Ohio is 2009 01:50:00.560 --> 01:50:02.520 a big party. We can get this done in Ohio. 2010 01:50:02.600 --> 01:50:04.640 We'll have some action items for your listeners in the 2011 01:50:04.720 --> 01:50:05.600 coming weeks for sure. 2012 01:50:05.800 --> 01:50:08.680 Fantastic. Well, we will continue. We're gonna bring a Donovan 2013 01:50:08.760 --> 01:50:12.079 Neil back because we've only hit one facet of again, 2014 01:50:12.199 --> 01:50:16.079 it's Buckeye Blueprint. You can find it online Buckeye Blueprint 2015 01:50:16.279 --> 01:50:18.640 dot org and check all the info out. We're gonna 2016 01:50:18.640 --> 01:50:20.479 talk more about this in just a moment. I must 2017 01:50:21.640 --> 01:50:23.880 mention QC kinetics because you know, you don't want to 2018 01:50:23.920 --> 01:50:26.359 live with pains. You know, if you've been dealing with 2019 01:50:26.479 --> 01:50:28.960 steroids and you've been dealing with pain medication. You know, 2020 01:50:29.039 --> 01:50:32.039 the hip pay, knee pain, joint pain. And remember my 2021 01:50:32.119 --> 01:50:34.880 dad's struggling through that and he of course ultimately went 2022 01:50:34.960 --> 01:50:38.000 under the knife. I wish he had QC kinets around 2023 01:50:38.079 --> 01:50:40.199 the time because maybe they could have provided him relief. 2024 01:50:40.760 --> 01:50:43.359 You don't have to go to surgery as an option. 2025 01:50:43.840 --> 01:50:47.680 Tens of thousands of people with this continuing pain discovered 2026 01:50:48.000 --> 01:50:51.560 these advanced cellular treatments. What QC kinetics does, and it's 2027 01:50:51.600 --> 01:50:55.439 in an in office procedure. They concentrate your body's natural 2028 01:50:56.199 --> 01:51:00.319 healing properties and place those concentrated properties at the point 2029 01:51:00.359 --> 01:51:05.039 of pain. The future of medicine, advanced ortho biologic treatments, 2030 01:51:05.720 --> 01:51:08.960 a QC Kinetics the nation's leader in regenerita of medicine 2031 01:51:09.000 --> 01:51:11.840 and joint preservation. They're here in sensing now and it's 2032 01:51:11.880 --> 01:51:15.319 a free consultation, so why not talk to them about it. 2033 01:51:15.439 --> 01:51:17.920 It's what's the worst thing can happen? Right it say 2034 01:51:17.960 --> 01:51:20.439 it's not gonna work. Hey, qc kN X is right there, 2035 01:51:20.520 --> 01:51:22.600 make an apployment.

How are the elected officials 2065 01:52:50.399 --> 01:52:53.159 in Ohio gonna deal with less money? Do we have 2066 01:52:53.319 --> 01:52:54.920 a spending problem here Ohio? 2067 01:52:55.079 --> 01:52:57.119 Dave, we do. 2068 01:52:57.439 --> 01:52:59.000 I mean, that's the that's the problem. 2069 01:52:59.039 --> 01:53:00.600 We don't have a other said, we don't have a 2070 01:53:00.680 --> 01:53:01.880 revenue generation problem. 2071 01:53:02.279 --> 01:53:06.720 We've got a spending problem in Washington and Columbus despite 2072 01:53:07.199 --> 01:53:12.239 you know, multiple years, since two thousand, twenty twenty eleven. 2073 01:53:12.359 --> 01:53:15.960 Since twenty eleven, Brian Republicans have had a red what 2074 01:53:16.000 --> 01:53:18.760 they call a red state trifecta. The House, the Senate, 2075 01:53:18.840 --> 01:53:23.279 and the governor's office held by Republicans, typically the Conservative Party. 2076 01:53:23.640 --> 01:53:26.239 Yet in that period of time, we've seen our budget 2077 01:53:26.439 --> 01:53:30.640 grow by billions billions, Brian we I think we've got 2078 01:53:30.680 --> 01:53:35.720 an opportunity here to stop the spending spree, prioritize necessary 2079 01:53:36.199 --> 01:53:41.399 services that the government can provide right with our roads, police, fire, education, 2080 01:53:42.319 --> 01:53:45.239 by empowering families, and stop the spending spree that's been 2081 01:53:45.279 --> 01:53:46.920 going on in Columbus. 2082 01:53:47.000 --> 01:53:48.319 It's what the voters asked. 2083 01:53:48.079 --> 01:53:50.479 For this past November. Well, you know, I always joke 2084 01:53:50.520 --> 01:53:54.159 about Columbus. It's like herding cats. You think, as you 2085 01:53:54.359 --> 01:53:56.760 point out, well, having the House, the Senate, and the 2086 01:53:57.560 --> 01:54:01.399 governor all Republican, that this would be sort of logical 2087 01:54:01.479 --> 01:54:04.920 and reasonable. They would grab onto these proposals and run 2088 01:54:05.039 --> 01:54:09.199 with them. But they're just people. Call them rhyanas Republicans 2089 01:54:09.239 --> 01:54:11.439 a name only. I think Republican Party has moved away 2090 01:54:11.520 --> 01:54:15.119 from It's one of its core principles, and that's fiscal responsibility. 2091 01:54:15.399 --> 01:54:17.560 They want to buy stuff and things to get there 2092 01:54:17.760 --> 01:54:20.439 get re elected, just like Democrats were always a blame 2093 01:54:20.520 --> 01:54:22.560 for doing. Now everybody's doing it. That's why they call 2094 01:54:22.600 --> 01:54:23.399 it the uniparty. 2095 01:54:23.479 --> 01:54:26.760 Now, well, I mean that's that's that's. 2096 01:54:26.680 --> 01:54:28.920 The crazy thing, right is, once you find folks are 2097 01:54:28.920 --> 01:54:31.159 in the minority, and once they get into the majority 2098 01:54:31.359 --> 01:54:34.079 right where they control the levers of power, some of 2099 01:54:34.119 --> 01:54:37.399 those corrupting forces find their way in. We're all human 2100 01:54:37.439 --> 01:54:37.840 at the end. 2101 01:54:37.760 --> 01:54:40.000 Of the day, despite our party affiliations, right, and so 2102 01:54:40.279 --> 01:54:42.800 that's our job, that's the work our activists do do, right, right. 2103 01:54:43.000 --> 01:54:43.319 That's right. 2104 01:54:43.479 --> 01:54:44.439 Keep these folks on us. 2105 01:54:44.479 --> 01:54:46.960 We remind them of the principles that they campaigned on 2106 01:54:47.319 --> 01:54:50.159 during election year, and we hold them accountable to following 2107 01:54:50.319 --> 01:54:53.079 through all those promises when the time comes to legislate. 2108 01:54:53.399 --> 01:54:55.840 Yeah, it just pains me to see that the public 2109 01:54:55.960 --> 01:54:58.880 pension is so underfunded. I mean, you'd think that they'd 2110 01:54:58.920 --> 01:55:00.720 be at least responsible and enough to take care of 2111 01:55:00.800 --> 01:55:04.199 people who are counting on the Ohio Public Pension for 2112 01:55:04.319 --> 01:55:07.840 their retirement only seventy six percent of assets to fulfill 2113 01:55:07.920 --> 01:55:10.319 the promises that are made to these people. And that's 2114 01:55:10.359 --> 01:55:13.119 a simple question of accountability and responsibility to the election. 2115 01:55:13.399 --> 01:55:17.640 Those that are the elected officials and the constituents who 2116 01:55:17.680 --> 01:55:19.479 are going to be relying on that down the road. 2117 01:55:19.600 --> 01:55:22.359 How about energy and innovation? What can we deal do 2118 01:55:22.560 --> 01:55:24.600 to improve the energy situation here? 2119 01:55:25.800 --> 01:55:27.640 Yeah, I think this is an area where we're going 2120 01:55:27.720 --> 01:55:29.760 to see a quarter turn. 2121 01:55:29.680 --> 01:55:30.119 If you will. 2122 01:55:31.479 --> 01:55:32.680 Since the house Bold six. 2123 01:55:32.520 --> 01:55:35.359 Scandal, there hasn't been a lot of energy policy movement. 2124 01:55:35.479 --> 01:55:37.560 And the energy policy that has moved, and I've been. 2125 01:55:37.520 --> 01:55:39.760 On your show to talk about it several times last 2126 01:55:39.840 --> 01:55:41.800 year has really at a core. 2127 01:55:41.720 --> 01:55:43.880 Been Cronius programs. 2128 01:55:43.920 --> 01:55:44.039 Right. 2129 01:55:44.119 --> 01:55:49.640 It's having great payers Ohio and subsidize energy utility companies 2130 01:55:49.680 --> 01:55:52.880 and these energy efficiency schemes that they cook up. In Columbus, 2131 01:55:53.399 --> 01:55:55.000 We're going to work to turn the page. There's a 2132 01:55:55.079 --> 01:55:56.199 number of folks coming together. 2133 01:55:56.319 --> 01:55:59.000 We've got to study that. The Great Buckeye Institute. I 2134 01:55:59.079 --> 01:55:59.840 know you've probably had. 2135 01:55:59.760 --> 01:56:02.399 Great Loss and Ray Hetterman on your show for I've 2136 01:56:02.399 --> 01:56:06.279 been They've been working up and we're going to provide 2137 01:56:06.359 --> 01:56:09.720 a primer to lawmakers. There's a over I think forty 2138 01:56:09.880 --> 01:56:13.720 new legislators, freshman legislators coming into Columbus this year, so 2139 01:56:13.760 --> 01:56:16.640 it's a huge opportunity to educate them on what the 2140 01:56:16.680 --> 01:56:20.039 free market principles for energy policy can be. And at 2141 01:56:20.079 --> 01:56:21.960 the core of it, it's abundance, right, we just need 2142 01:56:22.000 --> 01:56:24.159 to produce. We ought to be able to produce more 2143 01:56:24.319 --> 01:56:29.000 energy to solve our problems, not subsidize things like wind 2144 01:56:29.039 --> 01:56:32.960 and solar favorite industries, right, and that's what we're going 2145 01:56:33.039 --> 01:56:33.119 to be. 2146 01:56:33.239 --> 01:56:34.359 That's what we're being driving. 2147 01:56:34.159 --> 01:56:36.399 Forward, is creating a free market approach to energy policy 2148 01:56:36.399 --> 01:56:37.319 here in the Buckeye State. 2149 01:56:37.560 --> 01:56:40.960 I like that idea. Now moving forward to something I'm 2150 01:56:41.000 --> 01:56:44.520 always in favor of is providing families the opportunity for 2151 01:56:44.640 --> 01:56:48.319 school choice and getting them out of underperforming schools where 2152 01:56:48.319 --> 01:56:51.520 they're not even learning their basic skills but sitting in 2153 01:56:51.720 --> 01:56:53.520 doctrination camp and classes. 2154 01:56:55.239 --> 01:56:59.840 That's right. We have to remain ever vigilant here. Forecasts 2155 01:56:59.840 --> 01:57:01.800 are that and it's a good thing. Right to the 2156 01:57:01.920 --> 01:57:04.640 fiscal stewardship piece, the budget's going to be a lot 2157 01:57:04.720 --> 01:57:07.600 tighter than it was two years ago. The federal money 2158 01:57:07.720 --> 01:57:11.359 isn't flowing like it was post COVID, and they're going 2159 01:57:11.399 --> 01:57:13.199 to have to get a little tighter with the budget now. 2160 01:57:13.279 --> 01:57:16.159 The challenge there is making sure that the gains we 2161 01:57:16.319 --> 01:57:20.000 made two years ago expanding the Edge Choice Scholarship program 2162 01:57:20.079 --> 01:57:23.560 to empower families, making sure that program continues to be funded, 2163 01:57:23.920 --> 01:57:26.840 as well as addressing some of the challenges parents and 2164 01:57:27.800 --> 01:57:31.840 private schools encountered in working with the Department of Educational 2165 01:57:31.880 --> 01:57:34.279 Workforce to get access to those funds, and so I 2166 01:57:34.319 --> 01:57:36.800 think there's some opportunities to make some tweaks to streamline. 2167 01:57:37.000 --> 01:57:39.520 We want to make these things, this program easy to access, 2168 01:57:39.680 --> 01:57:42.199 so when that parents sees their kids report card and says, gosh, 2169 01:57:42.239 --> 01:57:44.399 there's got to be a better way they can easily 2170 01:57:44.520 --> 01:57:46.680 move their kid quickly to the school that's going to 2171 01:57:46.720 --> 01:57:49.479 best meet that child's needs, and that's good for everybody. 2172 01:57:49.840 --> 01:57:52.279 I guess the thing that always comes to mind when 2173 01:57:52.279 --> 01:57:55.520 we talk about this, you know, general concept, it sounds wonderful, 2174 01:57:55.600 --> 01:57:59.760 but then logistically speaking, if you know everybody wants to 2175 01:57:59.840 --> 01:58:04.800 go to that one high performing, demonstrably better school, how 2176 01:58:04.840 --> 01:58:07.479 can that school absorb the additional children? There seems to 2177 01:58:07.760 --> 01:58:10.079 be there's obviously going to be some finite limits to 2178 01:58:10.319 --> 01:58:11.520 the flexibility that people are. 2179 01:58:11.479 --> 01:58:12.800 Going to be to have. 2180 01:58:14.319 --> 01:58:14.479 Well. 2181 01:58:14.560 --> 01:58:16.119 And that's one of the areas that we've been talking 2182 01:58:16.199 --> 01:58:18.319 with legislators that we think they need to help address, 2183 01:58:18.520 --> 01:58:21.399 is what are the identifying what the regulatory barriers are 2184 01:58:21.640 --> 01:58:24.920 or the capacity barriers are, and making sure that we've 2185 01:58:25.000 --> 01:58:28.359 created an environment in state government, through the rules and 2186 01:58:28.439 --> 01:58:31.560 regulations that govern in the schools, to enable these schools 2187 01:58:31.600 --> 01:58:35.159 that are doing really good work and are achieving extraordinary 2188 01:58:35.199 --> 01:58:37.680 outcomes for students, to make sure they have the ability 2189 01:58:37.760 --> 01:58:40.319 to rapidly and quickly scale up and grow to be 2190 01:58:40.359 --> 01:58:43.000 able to provide that service to as many students in 2191 01:58:43.039 --> 01:58:45.279 the area as possible. It's certainly a challenge, it's certainly 2192 01:58:45.279 --> 01:58:48.279 a problem, but we think we can get there if we, 2193 01:58:48.680 --> 01:58:51.840 you know, just get the regulations right, get the government's 2194 01:58:51.880 --> 01:58:54.840 intervention out of the way, and make these schools to 2195 01:58:55.039 --> 01:58:57.880 able to grow and expand and serve the student population. 2196 01:58:57.560 --> 01:58:59.880 That needs it well. And you know, honestly, is like, 2197 01:59:00.039 --> 01:59:03.119 contemplate this even further. How is it that this one 2198 01:59:03.279 --> 01:59:06.319 school district over here ends up, you know, high on 2199 01:59:06.439 --> 01:59:10.680 the list, you know, excellent college admission raids, superior testing 2200 01:59:10.800 --> 01:59:13.119 scores and all of that, and the one, you know, 2201 01:59:13.359 --> 01:59:15.960 five miles down the road is at the bottom of 2202 01:59:16.000 --> 01:59:19.680 the pack. Kids can't even pass basic mathematic tests or 2203 01:59:19.760 --> 01:59:23.319 reading tests in eighth grade. What's the difference between those? 2204 01:59:23.680 --> 01:59:26.479 Is it the curriculum, is it the teachers, or I 2205 01:59:26.520 --> 01:59:28.680 always like to point out, maybe it's the family life 2206 01:59:28.680 --> 01:59:30.880 where we have parents that just don't give a damn 2207 01:59:31.000 --> 01:59:33.079 one way or another, don't ensure that their children are 2208 01:59:33.119 --> 01:59:35.960 doing the work, showing up on time, attending class. I 2209 01:59:35.960 --> 01:59:39.920 don't know, I mean, you just there's just some mystery 2210 01:59:40.000 --> 01:59:42.079 out there as to why some schools do really well 2211 01:59:42.119 --> 01:59:42.960 and others do not. 2212 01:59:44.600 --> 01:59:44.800 Well. 2213 01:59:45.520 --> 01:59:48.720 Honestly, actually, Bran, I think that's the I think we 2214 01:59:48.800 --> 01:59:51.520 need to move past looking at those at that and 2215 01:59:51.600 --> 01:59:53.840 we really need to be thinking about how do we 2216 01:59:53.920 --> 01:59:56.760 unlock opportunity for other student. My niece brief story. My 2217 01:59:56.920 --> 02:00:00.039 niece had struggled with her education in a lot a 2218 02:00:00.039 --> 02:00:02.960 lot of places, public schools and private school She eventually 2219 02:00:03.000 --> 02:00:04.760 got into a school that was able to help address 2220 02:00:04.800 --> 02:00:07.960 her needs. She had some learning disabilities, and now she's flourishing. 2221 02:00:08.199 --> 02:00:12.479 She's vibrant, she's happy, she's engaged. She's getting a's. Not 2222 02:00:12.560 --> 02:00:14.560 because they lowered the standards, but because she was put 2223 02:00:14.600 --> 02:00:16.720 into a situation where the school was able to educate her. 2224 02:00:18.359 --> 02:00:21.800 One sized point is one size doesn't fit all, right. 2225 02:00:22.439 --> 02:00:28.000 One form of education does not help all forms of children, right, 2226 02:00:28.159 --> 02:00:30.279 And so all the schools she went through were great schools. 2227 02:00:30.319 --> 02:00:34.000 They were fine, right, average, above average, But for Anna, 2228 02:00:34.479 --> 02:00:36.760 it wasn't enough, And so I think what's important is 2229 02:00:36.800 --> 02:00:40.279 that it's important to understand these testing scores. 2230 02:00:39.960 --> 02:00:41.680 And graduation rates and achievements. 2231 02:00:42.159 --> 02:00:44.000 But what's more important is what do we do to 2232 02:00:44.079 --> 02:00:46.319 empower the parent to put the kid where that where 2233 02:00:46.399 --> 02:00:47.319 they are going to flourish. 2234 02:00:47.319 --> 02:00:48.479 Where the kid is going to flourish. 2235 02:00:49.000 --> 02:00:50.119 That's the ultimate. 2236 02:00:49.880 --> 02:00:53.119 Measure from our perspective on success in the education system, 2237 02:00:53.279 --> 02:00:54.319 when the kid flourishes. 2238 02:00:54.520 --> 02:00:57.760 All right, did that well explained? And that certainly does 2239 02:00:58.640 --> 02:01:01.520 provide me with us so the more than satisfactory explanation 2240 02:01:01.640 --> 02:01:05.479 as to any given situation, which you always do a 2241 02:01:05.600 --> 02:01:08.319 great job of.

Looking forward to it, Brian, take 2261 02:01:53.960 --> 02:01:56.239 care brother, Happy New Year, seven forty nine fifty five 2262 02:01:56.359 --> 02:01:59.840 KRC the Talk Station. You know, medical imaging can be really, 2263 02:02:00.560 --> 02:02:04.199 really outrageously expensive. Go to the hospital imaging department. You 2264 02:02:04.239 --> 02:02:05.920 don't have to go there. Your doctor's gonna order an 2265 02:02:06.000 --> 02:02:08.760 MRISCT scan and echo cartogram, ultrasound, a long screen, or 2266 02:02:08.800 --> 02:02:11.479 cardiac scoring at some point in your life. I think 2267 02:02:11.520 --> 02:02:14.000 we all get one eventually. I've had multiple of these 2268 02:02:14.079 --> 02:02:17.560 images in my life, and I got my CT scan 2269 02:02:17.760 --> 02:02:20.680 at affordable imaging services where it would only cost six 2270 02:02:20.760 --> 02:02:25.000 hundred dollars. Contrast CT scan what did my doctors say 2271 02:02:25.000 --> 02:02:27.199 about that? Well, I got the bad news and my 2272 02:02:27.279 --> 02:02:30.920 cancer come back, but it wasn't anything about the imaging. No, 2273 02:02:31.439 --> 02:02:34.119 and the radiologist report was fine, just the exact same 2274 02:02:34.319 --> 02:02:37.640 thing that she would have gotten from the hospital imaging department. 2275 02:02:37.680 --> 02:02:39.640 It's only six hundred bucks go if I'd gone to 2276 02:02:39.680 --> 02:02:46.119 the hospital, probably five thousand dollars. Now it's low overheaded 2277 02:02:46.159 --> 02:02:48.479 affordable imaging. I had no denying that, but they have 2278 02:02:48.520 --> 02:02:50.760 the exact same equipment. Medical professionals have been doing this 2279 02:02:50.840 --> 02:02:53.479 for decades. You get great images, you get the board 2280 02:02:53.560 --> 02:02:57.399 certified radiolgist report reincluded in the low price for this image, 2281 02:02:58.159 --> 02:03:00.600 and you don't have that massive out of pocket responsibility. 2282 02:03:00.600 --> 02:03:02.319 Hey it's a new calendar, or what is your out 2283 02:03:02.359 --> 02:03:06.439 of pocket liability before the UH insurance actually kicks in? 2284 02:03:06.920 --> 02:03:08.640 And if the insurance kicks in, are you still going 2285 02:03:08.680 --> 02:03:12.199 to be responsible for some form of copay? My suggestion 2286 02:03:12.439 --> 02:03:15.159 is ask the imaging department or somebody at the hospital 2287 02:03:15.239 --> 02:03:16.760 what the total bill is going to be and what 2288 02:03:16.840 --> 02:03:18.920 the how much the insurance you've got is going to 2289 02:03:18.960 --> 02:03:22.079 pay for it, and then go, holy cow, you mean 2290 02:03:22.159 --> 02:03:24.600 I'm gonna have to shell out three grand and then 2291 02:03:24.680 --> 02:03:26.760 say no, I'm going to go to Affordable Imaging Services 2292 02:03:26.800 --> 02:03:29.039 where I can get that CT scan with a contrast 2293 02:03:29.119 --> 02:03:32.239 for six hundred dollars low pricing across the board.

Apparently he just let 2322 02:04:47.680 --> 02:04:51.159 me know because he trades stocks, he makes, he does, 2323 02:04:51.279 --> 02:04:55.159 he does a wonderful He actually trains people on his methodology, 2324 02:04:56.079 --> 02:04:58.720 so you know, he's a teacher of how to like 2325 02:04:58.800 --> 02:05:00.600 It's effectively a kind of a date trade thing. I 2326 02:05:00.640 --> 02:05:02.760 think it's daytrade fund. Dot com is a site, but 2327 02:05:03.760 --> 02:05:05.520 it's apparently yesterday was a bad day to be in 2328 02:05:05.560 --> 02:05:07.279 tech stocks. So I'm gonna have to ask him why 2329 02:05:07.319 --> 02:05:09.319 that is. Some of them dropped like fifty percent. What 2330 02:05:09.560 --> 02:05:12.479 is going on out there? We'll get all the answers 2331 02:05:12.600 --> 02:05:14.359 from Jay rat Lift at the bottom of the hour. 2332 02:05:14.520 --> 02:05:16.920 I always love hearing from you. Five one, three, seven, four, nine, 2333 02:05:16.960 --> 02:05:18.640 fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eight two to three 2334 02:05:18.680 --> 02:05:20.760 Talk Con five fifty on ET and C phones, and 2335 02:05:20.960 --> 02:05:25.560 remember fifty five KRC dot com because well you get 2336 02:05:25.560 --> 02:05:27.680 your Rheart media app there and you can listen and 2337 02:05:27.760 --> 02:05:32.640 stream the various podcasts and some great great conversations. Yesterday 2338 02:05:33.760 --> 02:05:36.520 Judge entenal Politano on the situation at GITMO and the 2339 02:05:36.680 --> 02:05:40.079 unconstitutional nature of what has gone on down there, and 2340 02:05:40.399 --> 02:05:44.039 I guess much too much to the Instagram nobody. I'm 2341 02:05:44.079 --> 02:05:47.800 not defending terrorists, but I cannot defend torture. And it 2342 02:05:48.000 --> 02:05:49.840 is horrific what has gone on down there, and of 2343 02:05:49.880 --> 02:05:52.520 course it ruined the ability to bring some of these 2344 02:05:52.520 --> 02:05:55.119 people to justice. Yeah, you must, in the same way 2345 02:05:55.159 --> 02:05:58.199 a cop can't kick your door in and rifle through 2346 02:05:58.319 --> 02:06:01.760 your stuff. And if you've got something that's illegal in 2347 02:06:01.920 --> 02:06:04.319 your stuff, if they kick the door in and they 2348 02:06:04.399 --> 02:06:08.199 don't have a warrant, they can't introduce whatever stuff it is, 2349 02:06:09.039 --> 02:06:11.359 it's illegal to have. You know, you used to call 2350 02:06:11.399 --> 02:06:13.199 it fruit of the poison tooties of this tree. But 2351 02:06:13.720 --> 02:06:16.079 I mean, you can't violate someone's civil liberties and the 2352 02:06:16.239 --> 02:06:19.039 law and then bring that into court. Well, you can't 2353 02:06:19.159 --> 02:06:21.760 beat a confession out of someone. If a cop took 2354 02:06:21.800 --> 02:06:23.479 you in the back room and rubb or hosed you 2355 02:06:23.960 --> 02:06:27.000 and you confessed that would be inadmissible. You'd also have 2356 02:06:27.119 --> 02:06:30.319 a civil rights lawsuit on your hands. You can sue them, 2357 02:06:32.600 --> 02:06:35.279 But the point being, a lot of that went on 2358 02:06:37.239 --> 02:06:41.760 and it ruined the ability to prosecute. I mean forty 2359 02:06:41.840 --> 02:06:45.520 thousand pages of interrogatories and testimony and evidence that it's 2360 02:06:45.560 --> 02:06:48.640 gone through four or five different teams of prosecutors and 2361 02:06:48.960 --> 02:06:51.479 multiple judges over the twenty years they've been detained there, 2362 02:06:52.199 --> 02:06:54.600 none of which is held up in court in terms 2363 02:06:54.640 --> 02:06:59.000 of the rights to do that. The treatment of those folks, 2364 02:06:59.000 --> 02:07:00.319 A lot of it's gone up to the super court, 2365 02:07:00.359 --> 02:07:04.159 Supreme courts next, all of it. So again, no defense 2366 02:07:04.279 --> 02:07:10.319 of terrorism. It's the defense of the well general principles 2367 02:07:10.359 --> 02:07:14.000 of humanity and the constitution big picture with Jack added 2368 02:07:14.119 --> 02:07:17.199 in party like it's seventeen eighty nine. Great conversation with 2369 02:07:17.239 --> 02:07:19.520 the Congressman Massi, who did a wonderful job talking about 2370 02:07:19.520 --> 02:07:23.279 the difference between the Omnibus Bill and reconciliation. So if 2371 02:07:23.319 --> 02:07:26.119 you have any confusion over that, listen to what Congressman 2372 02:07:26.159 --> 02:07:28.439 Massy has to say. And I pled with him to 2373 02:07:28.680 --> 02:07:31.079 out all of the rhinos behind the scenes. Who are 2374 02:07:31.119 --> 02:07:35.159 perpetuating this monstrosity we have that we can't afford to 2375 02:07:35.279 --> 02:07:38.880 pay for, which is the federal government and the fraud, 2376 02:07:38.920 --> 02:07:41.960 waste and abuse, as well as just ridiculous oversight and 2377 02:07:42.039 --> 02:07:44.680 micromanagement of our day to day lives. So there's something 2378 02:07:44.720 --> 02:07:46.199 that can be done about it. We just need to 2379 02:07:46.239 --> 02:07:50.079 hold who they are, the ones that will deal with 2380 02:07:50.399 --> 02:07:52.960 the devils across the aisle in order to protect their 2381 02:07:53.039 --> 02:07:57.159 pet projects and their states, giving up well maybe concessions 2382 02:07:57.199 --> 02:07:59.840 to the Democrats so they can protect their pet projects 2383 02:07:59.880 --> 02:08:01.800 in their states, none of which do us any good 2384 02:08:02.199 --> 02:08:04.159 and just bring us further and further to the cliff 2385 02:08:04.279 --> 02:08:08.319 of the well failure of our Fiat currency debt service 2386 02:08:08.399 --> 02:08:12.760 already exceeding the national budget for our entire defense. To 2387 02:08:12.840 --> 02:08:15.159 spose to go see what Nick's got this morning. Nick, 2388 02:08:15.199 --> 02:08:17.000 welcome back to the fifty five KRCY Morning Show. 2389 02:08:18.319 --> 02:08:21.359 Hi Brian, thank you for taking my call. This is 2390 02:08:21.439 --> 02:08:23.680 Nick Knowle, as you know, the author of the book. 2391 02:08:23.479 --> 02:08:25.479 I Got Our God Given Freedom. I knew you're gonna 2392 02:08:25.479 --> 02:08:27.079 put a plug in for your book, Nick, so I've 2393 02:08:27.079 --> 02:08:29.159 already got it up on my site, Our God Given Freedom. 2394 02:08:29.199 --> 02:08:30.800 Get a copy of a good Amazon or where you 2395 02:08:30.880 --> 02:08:31.680 get your books. 2396 02:08:32.399 --> 02:08:35.720 Well, thank you very much. And the thing is that 2397 02:08:36.479 --> 02:08:38.840 one of the themes of my book that keeps coming 2398 02:08:38.920 --> 02:08:41.960 up is the fact that the Democratic Party is the 2399 02:08:42.039 --> 02:08:44.920 source of all evil in this country. And that goes 2400 02:08:45.000 --> 02:08:48.439 from Dick Durbin, whom you imagine, who wants to control everything, 2401 02:08:49.640 --> 02:08:53.239 but it even infects people in Congress like Thomas Massey, 2402 02:08:53.279 --> 02:08:57.439 who's a strict conservative. When you ask Thomas Massey yesterday 2403 02:08:57.920 --> 02:09:00.520 to name the people who were standing in the way, 2404 02:09:00.560 --> 02:09:03.079 the Republicans who are standing in the way of straightening 2405 02:09:03.119 --> 02:09:06.520 this mess up, one of the things he said was, well, 2406 02:09:06.600 --> 02:09:07.920 I have to work with these guys. 2407 02:09:09.279 --> 02:09:12.880 Yeah, yeah, I know that. I obviously was troubled by 2408 02:09:12.920 --> 02:09:14.880 that as well, which is why I doubled down on 2409 02:09:15.000 --> 02:09:17.479 the request at the tail end of the conversation for 2410 02:09:17.640 --> 02:09:19.399 him to let me know who these people are. Just 2411 02:09:19.479 --> 02:09:21.479 send me a list so I can out them. I'll 2412 02:09:21.520 --> 02:09:23.159 be more than happy to bring it up. I want 2413 02:09:23.199 --> 02:09:26.279 to know specifics about these negotiations behind the scenes. We 2414 02:09:26.359 --> 02:09:28.000 never get to see them, We never get to hear 2415 02:09:28.039 --> 02:09:30.520 what their details are. We aren't privy to the over 2416 02:09:30.600 --> 02:09:32.560 the table, you know, back and forth. I'll give you 2417 02:09:32.640 --> 02:09:35.079 this if you give me that. I want some hardcore 2418 02:09:35.279 --> 02:09:38.800 concrete illustrations. How is it that there is a Festivius 2419 02:09:38.880 --> 02:09:41.239 report every year that Ran Paul puts out where in 2420 02:09:41.319 --> 02:09:43.840 the hell did these projects come from? How in the 2421 02:09:43.920 --> 02:09:46.399 hell is it? And who decided the taxpayer money was 2422 02:09:46.439 --> 02:09:49.720 going to be spent in foreign lands doing stupid things 2423 02:09:49.760 --> 02:09:54.439 and quite often dangerous, deadly pandemic creating things like the 2424 02:09:54.479 --> 02:09:57.520 Wuhan Institute of Virology, and we help pay for that crap. 2425 02:09:57.920 --> 02:09:59.520 That's the kind of detail I want to know. I 2426 02:09:59.560 --> 02:10:02.520 want some concrete, hardcore illustrations. I don't have to all 2427 02:10:02.600 --> 02:10:04.199 of them, but I want to know who the guy 2428 02:10:04.439 --> 02:10:08.159 is or gal is that's approving this kind of nonsense 2429 02:10:08.239 --> 02:10:09.880 so we can out them and bring it to the 2430 02:10:10.560 --> 02:10:14.000 voters attention to prevent them from being re elected. 2431 02:10:15.439 --> 02:10:17.640 And I think you should keep doubling down on that. 2432 02:10:18.600 --> 02:10:21.359 But the other thing that I wanted to mention is that, 2433 02:10:21.560 --> 02:10:25.520 secondly is the la fires. I used to work for 2434 02:10:25.640 --> 02:10:29.479 the Butler County Water and Sewer Department, and one of 2435 02:10:29.560 --> 02:10:32.119 the things they taught us at the Butler County Water 2436 02:10:32.199 --> 02:10:35.800 and Sewer Department they said that Ohio law requires that 2437 02:10:35.920 --> 02:10:38.520 the most important thing the water company has to do 2438 02:10:39.279 --> 02:10:43.279 is to maintain enough water and enough pressure at the 2439 02:10:43.720 --> 02:10:48.000 pumps to fight fires. That that's the most important requirement. 2440 02:10:48.359 --> 02:10:51.439 And if they maintain enough water and enough pressure to 2441 02:10:51.520 --> 02:10:54.439 fight the fires, there will be enough for the consumers 2442 02:10:54.520 --> 02:10:57.960 to use. And I was kind of shocked by that 2443 02:10:58.039 --> 02:11:00.840 at the beginning, but you know that should be used 2444 02:11:00.880 --> 02:11:05.279 in LA and everywhere else that has fire departments. They 2445 02:11:05.319 --> 02:11:08.119 should have the fire department have enough water, enough pressure 2446 02:11:08.159 --> 02:11:12.239 to fight the fires. And you know, there's been a 2447 02:11:12.359 --> 02:11:16.560 lot of talk about water mis management in California, but this. 2448 02:11:16.720 --> 02:11:17.600 Is just a part of that. 2449 02:11:19.000 --> 02:11:21.680 The water mis management has to do with growing crops 2450 02:11:21.720 --> 02:11:25.199 and filling lakes and other things like that. But you know, 2451 02:11:25.359 --> 02:11:28.800 having enough pressure at the pumps is one of the 2452 02:11:28.880 --> 02:11:31.119 most important things you have to have to have a 2453 02:11:31.199 --> 02:11:31.960 water department. 2454 02:11:34.239 --> 02:11:36.439 Didn't call it for an argument on that. 2455 02:11:37.600 --> 02:11:37.960 I just. 2456 02:11:39.479 --> 02:11:41.880 It seems to be the most mismanaged, dysfunctional area of 2457 02:11:41.960 --> 02:11:44.760 our country. So let us not follow the greater Los 2458 02:11:44.800 --> 02:11:49.760 Angeles areas lead in doing stupid things. There's no water pressure, 2459 02:11:49.840 --> 02:11:52.479 they electric lines have been shut down, so another reason 2460 02:11:52.560 --> 02:11:54.680 not to buy an electric vehicle. It's it's just it. 2461 02:11:55.680 --> 02:11:58.319 I don't know what else to say, plus, I mean 2462 02:11:58.560 --> 02:12:02.640 mother Nature. She can be a pain to deal with sometimes. 2463 02:12:02.680 --> 02:12:04.079 And if the winds are blow one hundred miles an 2464 02:12:04.119 --> 02:12:05.680 hour and you have no water pressure flowing to the 2465 02:12:05.760 --> 02:12:07.760 hydrants because you basically used a ball of water in 2466 02:12:07.800 --> 02:12:11.319 the reservoirs, you can't fly the airplanes of the helicopters 2467 02:12:11.399 --> 02:12:14.159 to dump water from the ocean onto the fires as well. 2468 02:12:14.600 --> 02:12:16.479 See what Mike's got this morning, Mike, Welcome to the 2469 02:12:16.520 --> 02:12:18.279 Morning Show.

Before a claim gets denied, you're like, 2516 02:14:42.800 --> 02:14:44.399 what in the hell is this all about? I don't 2517 02:14:44.439 --> 02:14:47.039 understand this explanation of benefit I got. Why didn't this 2518 02:14:47.159 --> 02:14:52.119 get paid?

There's no 2522 02:15:00.079 --> 02:15:02.319 cost to get in touch with them. It's just it's 2523 02:15:02.399 --> 02:15:04.680 like this service they're doing, and it's all about you. 2524 02:15:04.880 --> 02:15:06.920 Five one three eight hundred two two five five five 2525 02:15:06.960 --> 02:15:09.640 one three eight hundred call.

I mean, I've 2550 02:16:13.760 --> 02:16:15.680 always said, and whether you believe it or not, I 2551 02:16:15.760 --> 02:16:17.760 believe I mean this from the bottom of my heart. 2552 02:16:18.079 --> 02:16:20.760 I have never viewed listener lunch has anything to do 2553 02:16:20.880 --> 02:16:23.439 with me. It's all about getting people out of the 2554 02:16:23.520 --> 02:16:27.560 house to support a local restaurant and do something maybe 2555 02:16:27.640 --> 02:16:30.039 out of the ordinary for the day, but get to 2556 02:16:30.119 --> 02:16:33.479 meet new people. And there have been so many friendships, 2557 02:16:33.639 --> 02:16:36.360 long term friendships that have been established over the years 2558 02:16:36.520 --> 02:16:39.959 among and between my listeners. You know, I go in 2559 02:16:40.159 --> 02:16:42.239 and there's the same table, you know, like six people 2560 02:16:42.319 --> 02:16:44.840 all sitting together, smiles on their faces, sitting over and 2561 02:16:44.879 --> 02:16:47.760 enjoying a burger or whatever. But they didn't meet each 2562 02:16:47.799 --> 02:16:51.040 other other than through listener Lunch, and that just warms 2563 02:16:51.120 --> 02:16:53.399 my heart to no end. It is a great crew 2564 02:16:53.440 --> 02:16:57.639 of people. They are wonderful, nice, welcoming crew as well. 2565 02:16:57.760 --> 02:17:00.319 You don't need to know anybody at listener lunch. Walk 2566 02:17:00.399 --> 02:17:03.040 in and somebody, if there's an open chair at a table, 2567 02:17:03.159 --> 02:17:04.680 you say, do you mind if I sit here? I 2568 02:17:04.840 --> 02:17:07.799 guarantee anybody at that table say sure, sit down, introduce 2569 02:17:07.840 --> 02:17:11.559 yourself and engage in a wonderful conversation. So Todd, I 2570 02:17:11.920 --> 02:17:15.239 can't thank you enough for for for you know, pointing 2571 02:17:15.280 --> 02:17:17.479 that out so I could double down on on that 2572 02:17:17.639 --> 02:17:20.520 aspect of the listener. Launch anything else any time. 2573 02:17:21.159 --> 02:17:21.719 No, that's. 2574 02:17:23.879 --> 02:17:26.440 And have a beautiful rest of your day. 2575 02:17:26.600 --> 02:17:28.319 Thanks Todd, good scene you. I hope to see it 2576 02:17:28.360 --> 02:17:30.200 another one down the road, and again we're going to 2577 02:17:30.239 --> 02:17:33.079 be at a little Miami brewery on the fifth of February. 2578 02:17:34.319 --> 02:17:39.680 Let us see here before we get to I heard 2579 02:17:39.760 --> 02:17:44.239 me the aviation expert Jay Ratliffe was gonna mention, oh oh, 2580 02:17:44.360 --> 02:17:47.360 what did I do with it? Anyway, the concept of 2581 02:17:47.399 --> 02:17:50.280 preemptive pardons. I just wanted to throw it in here 2582 02:17:50.360 --> 02:17:53.719 because Joe Biden was asked about this the other day 2583 02:17:53.719 --> 02:17:59.079 and he didn't dismiss the idea of preemptive pardons, specifically 2584 02:18:00.040 --> 02:18:05.120 our good friend doctor Anthony Fauci and Hillary Clinton. Now 2585 02:18:05.159 --> 02:18:07.600 have they been accused or charged with any crimes? Have 2586 02:18:07.680 --> 02:18:09.680 they been investigated? I don't know if there's any Department 2587 02:18:09.719 --> 02:18:12.440 of Justice investigation going on behind the scenes looking into 2588 02:18:12.479 --> 02:18:14.600 these folks. But after talking with Congressman windsor if I 2589 02:18:14.639 --> 02:18:18.399 can imagine it's justified. But since no charges have been 2590 02:18:18.440 --> 02:18:20.680 loved and no one is saying they committed criminal activity 2591 02:18:20.680 --> 02:18:26.479 at least as of yet, wouldn't a preemptive pardon actually 2592 02:18:26.879 --> 02:18:30.319 sort of suggest that there is guilt somewhere back there. 2593 02:18:32.479 --> 02:18:35.120 Andrew Huff was interviewed about this. He's the author of 2594 02:18:35.159 --> 02:18:37.680 the Truth about Wuhan. How I uncovered the biggest lie 2595 02:18:37.719 --> 02:18:40.440 in history, he said, at best, doctor Philchi, his position 2596 02:18:40.600 --> 02:18:42.959 is he's guilty of twenty five million counts of negligent 2597 02:18:43.040 --> 02:18:48.680 criminal homicide. So you knew that the Wuhan Institute Virology 2598 02:18:48.760 --> 02:18:50.680 was a leaky lab. He allowed the research to go on. 2599 02:18:50.840 --> 02:18:53.520 They illegally exported the technology, they didn't have the proper 2600 02:18:53.600 --> 02:18:56.120 safety controls, and play some risk management perspective on the 2601 02:18:56.200 --> 02:18:59.559 United States side, and with the contractors involved with his research. 2602 02:18:59.680 --> 02:19:04.000 All of this, he says, is illegal. But he pointed 2603 02:19:04.040 --> 02:19:07.239 out if someone accepts a presidential pardon, it's essentially admission 2604 02:19:07.319 --> 02:19:09.840 of guilt of the crimes. Quote. So in the US law, 2605 02:19:09.920 --> 02:19:12.879 if the president issues a pardon to someone and the 2606 02:19:12.959 --> 02:19:15.319 person accepts the pardon, it's an emission of guilt of 2607 02:19:15.360 --> 02:19:17.639 the crimes. And if you look at all the individuals 2608 02:19:17.719 --> 02:19:20.120 involved with the cover of the exporting of this technology, 2609 02:19:20.760 --> 02:19:22.959 that is a violation of the Rico Act. Rico Act, 2610 02:19:23.000 --> 02:19:25.840 of course, was designed to go after a criminal activity 2611 02:19:25.959 --> 02:19:28.639 in the form of organized crime. Two or more people 2612 02:19:28.760 --> 02:19:32.280 working together in concert to commit a crime that would 2613 02:19:32.280 --> 02:19:34.680 be a Rico violation. In this particular case, you've got 2614 02:19:34.760 --> 02:19:37.959 probably hundreds of people, but at least a whole lot 2615 02:19:38.000 --> 02:19:43.000 of them. So if you pardon Fauci, I just make 2616 02:19:43.079 --> 02:19:46.799 this observation, considering he put this into the context of 2617 02:19:46.840 --> 02:19:51.399 a Rico situation. But if you pardon Fauci and he's 2618 02:19:51.479 --> 02:19:54.559 no longer you know, he can no longer take a 2619 02:19:54.600 --> 02:19:57.719 Fifth Amendment and be free of self incrimination. He can't 2620 02:19:57.760 --> 02:20:01.600 be incriminated, right, he would have to testify in any 2621 02:20:01.680 --> 02:20:05.280 other trial against the other folks that were involved and 2622 02:20:05.399 --> 02:20:10.680 engaging in this, as huff describes illegal activity. So there's 2623 02:20:10.680 --> 02:20:13.959 a whole host of people out there in the world 2624 02:20:14.000 --> 02:20:16.639 that would have to be subject to Biden's pardons in 2625 02:20:16.799 --> 02:20:19.520 order to capture up and scoop up everyone who might 2626 02:20:19.680 --> 02:20:24.360 be at some point investigated or held legally responsible for 2627 02:20:25.079 --> 02:20:30.120 well unleashing a man made virus on the Globe, just saying, 2628 02:20:30.239 --> 02:20:32.360 as to Hillary Clinton, you draw your own conclusions. I 2629 02:20:32.440 --> 02:20:34.520 heard media aviation expert Jay Ratlet's coming up next. 2630 02:20:34.559 --> 02:20:38.639 Please stick around fifty five KRC the simply money. 2631 02:20:41.079 --> 02:20:43.000 Time for the nine first one forecasts.

Real quick here, because as I always like 2660 02:22:04.239 --> 02:22:06.440 to point out, you do trade stocks, and it's your 2661 02:22:06.479 --> 02:22:09.120 primary source of income, and you do a good job 2662 02:22:09.159 --> 02:22:10.680 of it, and you trade other people.

You read flagged me and 2665 02:22:15.479 --> 02:22:16.959 told me that a lot of them dropped by like 2666 02:22:17.040 --> 02:22:17.680 fifty percent. 2667 02:22:18.440 --> 02:22:18.600 Yeah. 2668 02:22:18.920 --> 02:22:23.120 The Navidia CEO came out talking about the timeline for 2669 02:22:23.200 --> 02:22:27.360 a lot of the next wave, if you will, some 2670 02:22:27.479 --> 02:22:31.639 of the IT type technology, and it was considerably longer 2671 02:22:31.719 --> 02:22:33.680 than what a lot of people thought, and the tech 2672 02:22:33.719 --> 02:22:36.280 industry had been pushing up and up and up during 2673 02:22:36.360 --> 02:22:38.959 the excitement of everything, and when that came out, you 2674 02:22:39.120 --> 02:22:42.120 had some stocks that were priced at you know, twenty dollars, 2675 02:22:42.200 --> 02:22:45.959 fifteen dollars five dropping forty and fifty percent yesterday and 2676 02:22:46.440 --> 02:22:50.079 it was an absolute, just a bloodbath when you saw 2677 02:22:50.200 --> 02:22:52.879 these tech stocks taking the beating that they did. 2678 02:22:53.200 --> 02:22:55.600 The overall market was down just a little bit. But 2679 02:22:56.079 --> 02:22:57.120 you know, you're right. 2680 02:22:57.159 --> 02:23:00.760 As far as me teaching students, I've done for fifteen years. 2681 02:23:00.799 --> 02:23:03.440 But Brian, trying to time the market is stupid. Yeah, 2682 02:23:03.479 --> 02:23:06.120 But when you try to time specific stocks as we do, 2683 02:23:06.280 --> 02:23:09.040 as Warren Buffett does and everybody else, and you can 2684 02:23:09.120 --> 02:23:11.040 hit an eighty percent batting average, yeah, there's a lot 2685 02:23:11.079 --> 02:23:13.719 of money to be made. So I felt really bad 2686 02:23:13.879 --> 02:23:17.120 for the long term by holding pray investors that were 2687 02:23:17.200 --> 02:23:20.719 holding a significant chunk of these tech stocks, because before 2688 02:23:20.760 --> 02:23:23.479 they knew what happened, that part of their portfolio was 2689 02:23:23.520 --> 02:23:27.040 taking an absolute beating, and I hated to see it. 2690 02:23:27.120 --> 02:23:29.440 But it's the other reminder of why you know, I'll 2691 02:23:29.479 --> 02:23:31.680 hold a stock for fifteen or twenty minutes versus ten 2692 02:23:31.760 --> 02:23:35.079 or twenty years because you simply don't know what's coming, 2693 02:23:35.600 --> 02:23:37.760 and that's the best way to protect your portfolio. 2694 02:23:38.280 --> 02:23:40.959 Fair enough, sound advice. Moving over to eighty eight, and 2695 02:23:41.079 --> 02:23:41.440 I will. 2696 02:23:41.319 --> 02:23:43.840 Add a ps Brian if I may. In five days 2697 02:23:43.879 --> 02:23:46.319 of trading, my portfolio is up twenty percent. So I 2698 02:23:46.559 --> 02:23:49.799 kind of like my approach versus what the long term 2699 02:23:49.879 --> 02:23:51.879 by hold and pray stuff is, because this could be 2700 02:23:51.920 --> 02:23:54.319 a tough year with that battle of inflation and everything else. 2701 02:23:54.479 --> 02:23:55.920 You still yet to lick well, you. 2702 02:23:55.920 --> 02:23:57.680 Know, actually, I'm just glad you brought that up. Not 2703 02:23:57.799 --> 02:23:59.760 to take this part of the conversation too long, but 2704 02:24:00.600 --> 02:24:04.479 did you train Senator Ron Wyden, Representative Morgan de Gravy, 2705 02:24:04.600 --> 02:24:09.399 Nancy Pelosi, Representative Thomas Susie, Representative Kathy Manning, or Seth 2706 02:24:09.440 --> 02:24:12.559 Molten or Tina Smith and your methodology, because those members 2707 02:24:12.680 --> 02:24:16.920 of Congress and the senators, their portfolios went up by 2708 02:24:17.000 --> 02:24:20.680 let's see, Senator Ron Wyden one hundred and twenty three percent, 2709 02:24:21.840 --> 02:24:25.159 Morgan McGarvey one hundred and five percent, Nancy. 2710 02:24:24.959 --> 02:24:26.760 Flower how long of a period of time any year? 2711 02:24:27.040 --> 02:24:27.520 Last year? 2712 02:24:27.959 --> 02:24:29.639 Oh no, no, no, they they wouldn't have been mine 2713 02:24:29.680 --> 02:24:33.719 because they might Heck no, I would not trade it. 2714 02:24:33.920 --> 02:24:36.479 They would have to contact me through an ALIAS to 2715 02:24:36.559 --> 02:24:37.120 get my help. 2716 02:24:37.159 --> 02:24:37.399 Brother. 2717 02:24:38.559 --> 02:24:41.479 I figured that we're working off insider information that the 2718 02:24:41.639 --> 02:24:41.920 likes of. 2719 02:24:41.920 --> 02:24:42.879 You and I illegal. 2720 02:24:42.959 --> 02:24:44.200 You should go to jail for that. 2721 02:24:44.559 --> 02:24:44.760 I know. 2722 02:24:45.040 --> 02:24:47.319 That's the only reason I bring it up, because that's 2723 02:24:47.399 --> 02:24:50.440 exactly my conclusion. All right, what is what these guys 2724 02:24:50.520 --> 02:24:53.680 that were found dead on that Jet Blues airplane they 2725 02:24:53.680 --> 02:24:55.239 were They were up in the wheel well. 2726 02:24:55.920 --> 02:24:58.719 They were And this happens from time to time. It 2727 02:24:58.840 --> 02:25:00.159 was a couple of weeks ago that we we had 2728 02:25:00.159 --> 02:25:03.879 a United Airlines flight from Chicago, Chicago to Maui. Flight 2729 02:25:04.000 --> 02:25:06.440 lands in Maui, they found someone who died in that 2730 02:25:06.520 --> 02:25:08.760 wheel well. So it's like, how in the world is 2731 02:25:08.840 --> 02:25:12.239 somebody able to stroll across the tarmac in Chicago's O'Hare 2732 02:25:12.280 --> 02:25:18.159 Airport or JFK's Airport in New York totally undetected and 2733 02:25:18.239 --> 02:25:20.680 able to crawl up in a wheel well, which you know, 2734 02:25:20.760 --> 02:25:23.600 when you try to do that stunt, the fatality rates 2735 02:25:23.639 --> 02:25:24.600 like seventy eight percent. 2736 02:25:24.680 --> 02:25:25.879 It's like a suicide mission. 2737 02:25:25.920 --> 02:25:28.200 You're either going to get crushed because there's not enough room, 2738 02:25:28.680 --> 02:25:31.559 or you're going to die of hypothermia when the temperature 2739 02:25:31.600 --> 02:25:34.719 drops to fifty sixty seven degrees below zero during the 2740 02:25:34.799 --> 02:25:37.959 course of that flight and that unpressurized part of the aircraft. 2741 02:25:39.000 --> 02:25:41.520 But what we're finding out on the Jet Blue situation 2742 02:25:41.760 --> 02:25:44.600 was it may not have been a JFK situation because 2743 02:25:44.719 --> 02:25:48.079 brand apparently these bodies had been decomposed to the point 2744 02:25:48.520 --> 02:25:50.280 that they may have been on there for several days 2745 02:25:51.520 --> 02:25:54.159 lights leading up to that. And I've had a few 2746 02:25:54.239 --> 02:25:56.440 Jet Blue pilots that have reached out to me saying, Jay, 2747 02:25:56.559 --> 02:25:58.840 understand that when we do our walk around, there's a 2748 02:25:58.920 --> 02:26:02.120 part of that landing or flap that closes that when 2749 02:26:02.159 --> 02:26:04.360 we do our walk around, we can't see back up 2750 02:26:04.440 --> 02:26:07.719 in there. So it would require a mechanic with a 2751 02:26:07.799 --> 02:26:10.440 large ladder to be up there doing an inspection on 2752 02:26:10.520 --> 02:26:12.879 a specific system that would cause them to be up 2753 02:26:12.920 --> 02:26:16.440 there to determine that somebody was in that particular part 2754 02:26:16.479 --> 02:26:18.559 of the aircraft. So it's not like we miss it 2755 02:26:18.719 --> 02:26:21.079 when we do our walk bys, because we simply can't 2756 02:26:21.159 --> 02:26:23.239 see that with the way that that type of aircraft 2757 02:26:23.559 --> 02:26:26.680 has part of the landing gear door closed when the 2758 02:26:26.840 --> 02:26:29.479 gear is deployed, So you know, it's not a situation 2759 02:26:29.520 --> 02:26:31.600 where they're missing it on the walk around. But if 2760 02:26:31.639 --> 02:26:34.079 it was in Jamaica, where we're thinking it may have 2761 02:26:34.200 --> 02:26:36.760 been in Kingston, you know, obviously the FAA will go 2762 02:26:36.840 --> 02:26:40.040 there saying what kind of of security you have in 2763 02:26:40.079 --> 02:26:42.799 place here to prevent this, and rib there's been times 2764 02:26:42.840 --> 02:26:45.600 where flights from Africa, flights from Europe have come into 2765 02:26:45.639 --> 02:26:48.479 the United States and they've dropped the landing gears to 2766 02:26:48.600 --> 02:26:51.399 land at Newark or Kennedy or wherever. 2767 02:26:51.440 --> 02:26:53.079 And we have bodies that fall out. 2768 02:26:53.239 --> 02:26:55.120 Well, that's what I honestly wondering. I mean, if they 2769 02:26:55.159 --> 02:26:57.399 were in there for like that three days, the flight 2770 02:26:57.600 --> 02:27:01.239 went from multiple locations to others, there's multiple landings there. 2771 02:27:01.319 --> 02:27:04.159 I'm surprised that the dead bodies weren't shaken out at 2772 02:27:04.239 --> 02:27:04.680 some point. 2773 02:27:05.319 --> 02:27:09.639 It happens, and it's a horrific event, and you know, 2774 02:27:09.760 --> 02:27:12.440 you feel for obviously the individuals that lost their life, 2775 02:27:12.520 --> 02:27:14.760 and certainly for a lot of them in Africa and 2776 02:27:14.799 --> 02:27:17.520 other places that are trying to flee places where their 2777 02:27:17.559 --> 02:27:20.000 life is literally in danger, so they're willing to put 2778 02:27:20.040 --> 02:27:22.399 their life at risk, with most of them dying in 2779 02:27:22.479 --> 02:27:25.719 the process. But the point is that it represents a 2780 02:27:25.879 --> 02:27:29.799 huge lapse in security because had these individuals been terraced, 2781 02:27:30.159 --> 02:27:33.959 had been individuals intent on inflicting harm that can gain act. 2782 02:27:34.120 --> 02:27:37.520 This isn't Muscle Shows, Alabama, this isn't Evansville, Indiana. We're 2783 02:27:37.520 --> 02:27:41.399 talking about Chicago's O'Hare airport. It's happened in Kennedy. We 2784 02:27:41.680 --> 02:27:44.200 have the attacks of nine to eleven. JFK spent one 2785 02:27:44.239 --> 02:27:48.120 hundred million dollars on a security upgrade with you know, 2786 02:27:48.360 --> 02:27:52.239 motion sensors and closed circuit cameras. And in twenty twelve 2787 02:27:52.319 --> 02:27:54.440 there was a jet scare that broke down on the river. 2788 02:27:54.959 --> 02:27:58.159 He climbed the fence, he walks across two active runways, 2789 02:27:58.479 --> 02:28:01.120 comes up to the terminal, walks in a door, and 2790 02:28:01.239 --> 02:28:04.879 is inside the terminal in his great, big, bright yellow 2791 02:28:05.280 --> 02:28:08.680 flotation device. He's dripping wet head to toe and a 2792 02:28:08.760 --> 02:28:11.760 Delta employee notices he then and then calls the police. 2793 02:28:12.159 --> 02:28:14.559 But that's the first time he was spotted after going 2794 02:28:14.680 --> 02:28:18.799 that entire distance across one of the busiest international airports 2795 02:28:18.840 --> 02:28:21.440 that we have in the country. So it's like, what's 2796 02:28:21.479 --> 02:28:24.920 going on with security if people are still able in Phoenix, 2797 02:28:25.000 --> 02:28:27.920 in Chicago, at any of these other airports where they're 2798 02:28:27.920 --> 02:28:31.399 able to access these aircraft and can't continue to happen. 2799 02:28:31.600 --> 02:28:33.239 Well, we got another Jet Blue to the story to 2800 02:28:33.280 --> 02:28:35.440 talk about, plus the latest on the Korean plane crash 2801 02:28:35.520 --> 02:28:39.000 among other topics with Jay RATTLEFT will return after these 2802 02:28:39.040 --> 02:28:39.600 brief words. 2803 02:28:40.719 --> 02:28:44.079 Fifty five KARC the Great American air for my buddy 2804 02:28:44.120 --> 02:28:44.680 nine fifty. 2805 02:28:44.520 --> 02:28:47.000 Five RCD Talk station Brian Thomas with I heard media 2806 02:28:47.040 --> 02:28:49.799 Aviation Next for Jay Ratt lift sticking with Jet Blue 2807 02:28:50.000 --> 02:28:53.639 and in the category of idiots doing idiot things because 2808 02:28:53.680 --> 02:28:57.639 they're idiots, what's the story with his passenger opening up 2809 02:28:57.719 --> 02:29:01.360 a plane door while it's tax Well, the. 2810 02:29:01.559 --> 02:29:04.159 Planes in Boston, you have passengers that are in such 2811 02:29:04.159 --> 02:29:04.920 a good mood, Brian. 2812 02:29:05.239 --> 02:29:07.319 They're leaving that winter weather. 2813 02:29:07.239 --> 02:29:10.239 Headed for San Juan, Puerto Rico, beautiful weather, a lot 2814 02:29:10.280 --> 02:29:12.200 of food, a lot of fun, and they're taxing for 2815 02:29:12.319 --> 02:29:15.360 takeoff and just looking forward to the flight and getting there. 2816 02:29:15.479 --> 02:29:18.440 When you have a boyfriend and girlfriend that are sitting 2817 02:29:18.520 --> 02:29:21.159 there and the girlfriend start starting to get text that 2818 02:29:21.239 --> 02:29:23.680 the boyfriend wants to see who it's from. She won't 2819 02:29:23.680 --> 02:29:25.959 show him, so he gets mad and says, I'll show you. 2820 02:29:26.120 --> 02:29:28.920 He gets up, walks over to the emergency exit, opens 2821 02:29:29.000 --> 02:29:31.200 up the door. Now the airplane's not pressurized, they've not 2822 02:29:31.319 --> 02:29:36.399 taken off, and all of the emergency slides are engaged. 2823 02:29:36.440 --> 02:29:39.719 So he opens up the exit, opens the door, and boom, 2824 02:29:40.520 --> 02:29:43.079 it's deployed. Nobody can stop him in time, and all 2825 02:29:43.120 --> 02:29:45.399 of a sudden, the plane comes to a stop. Every 2826 02:29:45.520 --> 02:29:47.680 passenger is impacted by at least an hour and a half. 2827 02:29:47.760 --> 02:29:50.840 It takes, normally from a mechanic standpoint, to replace one 2828 02:29:50.879 --> 02:29:53.799 of these slides once they've been deployed. And you have 2829 02:29:54.120 --> 02:29:57.239 one individual that's impacting that flight, and not only that, 2830 02:29:57.559 --> 02:30:00.200 with the flight getting into later into San Juan, if 2831 02:30:00.239 --> 02:30:02.440 the crew had a specific amount of time for the rest, 2832 02:30:02.879 --> 02:30:05.600 that means the originating flight to the next day is 2833 02:30:05.719 --> 02:30:09.239 also delayed, plus any other flight that aircraft is scheduled 2834 02:30:09.280 --> 02:30:13.040 for on that day. So you have one individual impacting 2835 02:30:13.120 --> 02:30:15.760 the lives of hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people 2836 02:30:16.079 --> 02:30:19.079 because as you mentioned, acting like an idiot, and I 2837 02:30:19.159 --> 02:30:22.280 suspect that Jet Blue will a ban this individual obviously 2838 02:30:22.399 --> 02:30:25.239 from flying Jet Blue for life. They will send him 2839 02:30:25.239 --> 02:30:27.959 a bill for the maintenance that was required to replace 2840 02:30:28.040 --> 02:30:31.600 the slide, and passengers on board could certainly sue him 2841 02:30:31.600 --> 02:30:34.600 in civil court if there were certain things they missed 2842 02:30:34.799 --> 02:30:38.280 like a wedding, someone they're trying to reach before they'd 2843 02:30:38.319 --> 02:30:41.920 pass those kinds of things because of the actions of 2844 02:30:42.200 --> 02:30:45.000 one single person. And I tell you it's a shame 2845 02:30:45.079 --> 02:30:47.760 nobody tackled him on the way to the door, because 2846 02:30:47.840 --> 02:30:49.879 that's really the only way you could have prevented this. 2847 02:30:50.120 --> 02:30:51.840 But you know, the flight intends will tell you to 2848 02:30:51.920 --> 02:30:53.840 sit down, sit down, sit down, and they don't think 2849 02:30:53.879 --> 02:30:56.239 you're going to walk over and grab the handle of 2850 02:30:56.440 --> 02:30:58.479 the emergency exit and give it a pull. 2851 02:30:58.760 --> 02:31:01.040 Well exactly, And you know, going to your point about 2852 02:31:01.040 --> 02:31:03.360 you wish someone had to tackle them. That never wouldn't 2853 02:31:03.360 --> 02:31:05.600 even have crossed my mind, because. 2854 02:31:05.520 --> 02:31:07.280 Across my mind, I can tell you that because I'm 2855 02:31:07.280 --> 02:31:09.440 thinking this guy's about to delay airflight big time. 2856 02:31:10.040 --> 02:31:12.159 Well, I mean that he would actually open the damn door. 2857 02:31:12.559 --> 02:31:14.680 You know, I see a guy walking toward the door 2858 02:31:14.799 --> 02:31:17.719 while it's taxing, and I just wouldn't what kind of 2859 02:31:17.799 --> 02:31:20.520 moron would even consider doing something like that. But you 2860 02:31:20.600 --> 02:31:23.440 do live in a world filled with morons, all right. 2861 02:31:24.799 --> 02:31:27.440 The Korean plane crash. What's going on with this one? 2862 02:31:28.280 --> 02:31:29.159 The black boxes? 2863 02:31:29.239 --> 02:31:32.280 I'm really interested to hear Brian, because of course there's 2864 02:31:32.319 --> 02:31:35.959 a lot to this particular emergency situation where that plane crash. 2865 02:31:36.319 --> 02:31:39.079 We lost one hundred and seventy nine lives. Two people survived, 2866 02:31:39.120 --> 02:31:40.879 the two crew members that were at the back of 2867 02:31:40.920 --> 02:31:43.040 the airplane. But we're trying to figure out why in 2868 02:31:43.079 --> 02:31:45.719 the world the crew didn't deploy the landing gear, because 2869 02:31:46.280 --> 02:31:50.639 when you are making an emergency landing like this, apparently 2870 02:31:50.719 --> 02:31:53.440 on one engine, you would lower the landing gear so 2871 02:31:53.559 --> 02:31:56.319 that you at least have the ability to control the 2872 02:31:56.799 --> 02:32:01.159 breaking of the aircraft after its land and for some reason, 2873 02:32:01.239 --> 02:32:04.600 this airplane came in with the landing gear up, not deployed. 2874 02:32:05.200 --> 02:32:08.000 The flaps, which Boeing calls for being set at forty 2875 02:32:08.040 --> 02:32:10.639 degrees to try to give yourself drag when you've got 2876 02:32:10.680 --> 02:32:14.360 a belly landing, also not deployed. And apparently the reverse 2877 02:32:14.440 --> 02:32:17.280 thrusters that were engaged, which is the process you use 2878 02:32:17.360 --> 02:32:20.200 when you land, was done on the engine that may 2879 02:32:20.280 --> 02:32:22.840 have been the one that had the bird impact. So 2880 02:32:23.360 --> 02:32:26.079 there's just so many things there that just don't make sense. 2881 02:32:26.159 --> 02:32:29.040 And the flight data recorder, one of the two black boxes, 2882 02:32:29.200 --> 02:32:32.000 was damaged. It's gone to the National Transportation Safety Board 2883 02:32:32.559 --> 02:32:36.959 in DC to be fixed. Now. This past weekend, the 2884 02:32:38.040 --> 02:32:42.479 South Korean officials were converting the cockpit voice recorder that 2885 02:32:42.559 --> 02:32:45.319 would be recording the voices and the alarms and everything 2886 02:32:45.360 --> 02:32:47.440 going on on the flight deck. They were converting that 2887 02:32:47.559 --> 02:32:51.000 into audio files and they're reviewing that now, and I 2888 02:32:51.159 --> 02:32:54.079 suspect that they're going to be pretty forthcoming with the investigation. 2889 02:32:54.239 --> 02:32:57.959 But there have been times as impossible as is to believe, 2890 02:32:58.000 --> 02:33:00.760 and I've been saying this since the crash, that cruise 2891 02:33:00.799 --> 02:33:03.840 have forgotten to land lower the landing gear. Now we 2892 02:33:03.959 --> 02:33:06.440 don't know if if in the because the landing gear, 2893 02:33:06.440 --> 02:33:08.799 even if you have no hydraulics, it's a simple matter 2894 02:33:08.879 --> 02:33:12.200 of unlocking the three landing gears and they're gravity deployed, 2895 02:33:12.239 --> 02:33:14.280 they fall, they're luck in the position. 2896 02:33:14.000 --> 02:33:14.559 You're good to go. 2897 02:33:15.639 --> 02:33:18.479 You don't need hydraulics for that to take place. So 2898 02:33:18.719 --> 02:33:22.200 the idea that that didn't happen is raising all kinds 2899 02:33:22.239 --> 02:33:25.319 of questions. But that's not what killed everybody. What killed 2900 02:33:25.360 --> 02:33:29.200 everyone was the wall assinine. Why the did you That 2901 02:33:29.319 --> 02:33:31.719 thing would have stopped a tank and it's at the 2902 02:33:31.799 --> 02:33:33.799 end of the runway and all it's doing is holding 2903 02:33:33.879 --> 02:33:37.959 up the ils antennas, which at every other airport seemingly 2904 02:33:38.040 --> 02:33:41.079 in the world that's held up by things that break 2905 02:33:41.120 --> 02:33:43.479 away in the event they're impacted by a ground vehicle 2906 02:33:43.840 --> 02:33:47.159 or aircraft. They're not designed to stop a tank like 2907 02:33:47.280 --> 02:33:50.280 this concrete wall was, and when they hit that, game 2908 02:33:50.399 --> 02:33:52.920 over everybody dies and they shouldn't have. We've had so 2909 02:33:53.000 --> 02:33:55.680 many belly landings where the aircraft goes and goes and goes, 2910 02:33:56.079 --> 02:33:58.600 it slows to a stop and then everybody gets off 2911 02:33:58.760 --> 02:34:02.200 minimal injuries. If all here we had a situation where 2912 02:34:02.239 --> 02:34:06.239 that the crew brought it down level, they would have 2913 02:34:06.440 --> 02:34:09.760 just continued You saw it going down the runway breaking apart, 2914 02:34:10.159 --> 02:34:13.760 wasn't on fire. It would have continued to skid as 2915 02:34:13.840 --> 02:34:17.520 those airplanes are designed to do, thankfully to the construction 2916 02:34:17.639 --> 02:34:19.920 that Airbus and Boeing have on these planes, and it 2917 02:34:19.959 --> 02:34:21.639 would have just simply come to a stop and everybody 2918 02:34:21.680 --> 02:34:23.879 would have got off. So we're seeing right now that 2919 02:34:24.120 --> 02:34:26.559 airports around the world. China is leading the way on this, 2920 02:34:26.719 --> 02:34:30.159 doing a safety assessment on all of their airports, making 2921 02:34:30.200 --> 02:34:32.280 sure that they don't have anything at the end of 2922 02:34:32.360 --> 02:34:35.159 the overrun section at the end of a runway that 2923 02:34:35.280 --> 02:34:38.120 an aircraft could impact that could cause this kind of 2924 02:34:38.120 --> 02:34:40.159 an outcome. And you know, the best way for us 2925 02:34:40.239 --> 02:34:42.079 to honor the lives of those that were lost, and 2926 02:34:42.200 --> 02:34:44.879 this is so incredibly tragic, is to make sure that 2927 02:34:45.000 --> 02:34:47.559 we avoid this kinde of a situation in the future. 2928 02:34:47.840 --> 02:34:50.600 And it was that wall that was the problem. 2929 02:34:50.600 --> 02:34:53.000 Now, Obviously, if the crew forgot to lower the landing gear, 2930 02:34:53.120 --> 02:34:55.360 or there was a mechanical situation, or if one of 2931 02:34:55.399 --> 02:34:58.079 the pilots experienced a medical episode in the middle of this, 2932 02:34:58.559 --> 02:35:01.120 all of that's working against them, and they might have 2933 02:35:01.159 --> 02:35:01.959 been able to stop the. 2934 02:35:01.959 --> 02:35:04.959 Aircraft otherwise before it got to that part. 2935 02:35:05.719 --> 02:35:08.360 So there's probably gonna be a lot of contributing factors, 2936 02:35:08.399 --> 02:35:10.760 as tends to be the case with most of these 2937 02:35:10.840 --> 02:35:14.319 accident investigations. But as with every one of them, we're 2938 02:35:14.319 --> 02:35:17.000 going to learn and I'm glad to see the South 2939 02:35:17.079 --> 02:35:20.319 Korean officials are not holding everything close to the vest. 2940 02:35:20.600 --> 02:35:23.319 They've asked Boeing to come in and assist the engineers, 2941 02:35:23.319 --> 02:35:25.879 They've asked for the National Transportation Safety Board here from 2942 02:35:25.879 --> 02:35:28.639 the US to come in. They're incorporating a lot of 2943 02:35:28.680 --> 02:35:32.280 different agencies, and I think that probably means that when 2944 02:35:32.319 --> 02:35:35.040 the information starts forthcoming in the next few days on 2945 02:35:35.120 --> 02:35:39.600 what the initial observations are and again the investigation will 2946 02:35:39.600 --> 02:35:41.600 go for a year, year and a half. We'll have 2947 02:35:41.639 --> 02:35:43.959 a pretty good idea of what some of the initial 2948 02:35:44.079 --> 02:35:48.040 findings are that will be you know, that'll lead the investigation. 2949 02:35:48.239 --> 02:35:51.040 But it could have happened, and that will happened the 2950 02:35:51.280 --> 02:35:51.920 entire reason. 2951 02:35:52.200 --> 02:35:54.840 Yeah, I could not blee my eyes when I saw that. 2952 02:35:55.040 --> 02:35:57.600 And among the things, don't build a tank stopping wall 2953 02:35:57.600 --> 02:35:59.440 at the end of a runway, and don't build a 2954 02:35:59.479 --> 02:36:02.120 nuclear place in a tsunami zone. Let's pause for a moment. 2955 02:36:02.159 --> 02:36:04.479 We'll bring Jay that lift back. We've got the latest 2956 02:36:04.520 --> 02:36:08.239 on Boeing plus hub delays, and I suspect there might 2957 02:36:08.319 --> 02:36:10.399 be some West Coast delays. We'll hear from Jay on 2958 02:36:10.479 --> 02:36:11.360 that one in just a second. 2959 02:36:11.719 --> 02:36:16.079 Fifty five car the talk station. I wish i'd gotten 2960 02:36:16.159 --> 02:36:16.799 treated for out. 2961 02:36:16.799 --> 02:36:18.719 A forecast twenty three for the high today with sunny 2962 02:36:18.719 --> 02:36:21.600 sky is down at nine overnight with clouds snow tomorrow 2963 02:36:21.680 --> 02:36:25.840 about ten am one to five inches, twenty eight degrees 2964 02:36:25.879 --> 02:36:28.639 overnight low of twenty and on Saturday it'll be dry 2965 02:36:28.680 --> 02:36:31.440 a high of thirty am, partly cloudy, closing out at 2966 02:36:31.479 --> 02:36:34.000 eight degrees.

Jay. What is the 2982 02:37:18.719 --> 02:37:21.639 story latest story on Boeing? Are they stepping up efforts, 2983 02:37:21.959 --> 02:37:24.600 surprise inspections or something? How's this working? 2984 02:37:25.319 --> 02:37:26.200 Yeah, we're coming up. 2985 02:37:26.280 --> 02:37:28.360 In fact, we've passed the one year anniversary of the 2986 02:37:28.479 --> 02:37:31.600 last Airlines door plug thing blowing out. And you and 2987 02:37:31.680 --> 02:37:35.319 I were talking a year ago last week where Boeing 2988 02:37:35.360 --> 02:37:37.600 had sent out a memo saying that some mechanics for 2989 02:37:37.680 --> 02:37:41.239 airlines had found bolts in nuts that were missing and 2990 02:37:41.360 --> 02:37:43.360 loose on some of the rudder control systems of the 2991 02:37:43.440 --> 02:37:47.040 seven thirty seven and how their airline mechanics maybe should 2992 02:37:47.079 --> 02:37:49.639 keep an eye on that when they're doing their ongoing maintenance. 2993 02:37:50.040 --> 02:37:51.840 So that made us think what in the world's going on, 2994 02:37:52.239 --> 02:37:54.000 And then the door plug happened where it fell off 2995 02:37:54.040 --> 02:37:57.040 the last Airlines flight. Thank god nobody got killed or 2996 02:37:57.079 --> 02:38:01.120 seriously injured. And the FAA has stip in now saying 2997 02:38:01.200 --> 02:38:04.600 that the oversight that they kicked in after this last 2998 02:38:04.719 --> 02:38:07.760 year has continued. In fact, they've gone on to stress 2999 02:38:07.920 --> 02:38:11.840 that they are stepping up their unannounced inspections, which I 3000 02:38:12.040 --> 02:38:14.680 love because I tell you, anytime that you're working at 3001 02:38:14.719 --> 02:38:17.399 an airport and an FA inspector shows up and announced, 3002 02:38:17.440 --> 02:38:20.840 everything stops and they're there to make sure that everything's 3003 02:38:20.840 --> 02:38:23.120 being done as it should. Now, five years ago, we 3004 02:38:23.200 --> 02:38:25.600 were told by the Federal ABA's administration they were going 3005 02:38:25.719 --> 02:38:28.559 to be on top of Boeing like never before. We 3006 02:38:28.680 --> 02:38:31.159 had nothing to worry about the craft they had pulled 3007 02:38:31.200 --> 02:38:34.479 previous with the Boeing Max situation, the two plane crashes 3008 02:38:35.479 --> 02:38:40.000 withholding information criminally from the FAA, from airlines from pilots 3009 02:38:40.319 --> 02:38:42.360 was a thing of the past. Well, we have found 3010 02:38:42.399 --> 02:38:45.079 over the last five years, with forty some whistleblowers that 3011 02:38:45.239 --> 02:38:47.879 that really hasn't happened. So the FAA is trying to 3012 02:38:47.920 --> 02:38:50.920 make sure that moving forward from this point that they 3013 02:38:51.040 --> 02:38:52.879 are on top of things, and Brian, I really hope 3014 02:38:52.879 --> 02:38:55.840 that they are, because you're talking about matters of safety 3015 02:38:56.200 --> 02:38:58.520 to the point that some Boeing employees won't even get 3016 02:38:58.520 --> 02:39:03.000 on their own airplanes. While it extreme, but it underscores 3017 02:39:03.520 --> 02:39:05.799 just how concerned a lot of these individuals are when 3018 02:39:05.920 --> 02:39:08.479 in the past, according to the reports, as you and 3019 02:39:08.559 --> 02:39:11.959 I talked about, the airplane would run out of parts, 3020 02:39:12.440 --> 02:39:14.920 and to keep the airplane moving through the production line, 3021 02:39:15.200 --> 02:39:17.639 employees were told to go to the scrap heap, pick 3022 02:39:17.680 --> 02:39:20.680 out the best parts that's failed, bring it back, and 3023 02:39:21.120 --> 02:39:22.799 yes it's painted with red paint, but get all the 3024 02:39:22.840 --> 02:39:25.280 red paint off and then put it on the aircraft. 3025 02:39:25.879 --> 02:39:27.600 And a lot of these employees are like, no, I mean, 3026 02:39:27.680 --> 02:39:30.239 that's a failed part. It's in the junk pile for 3027 02:39:30.440 --> 02:39:32.639 a reason. But you know, these are the kind of 3028 02:39:32.680 --> 02:39:34.799 antics that apparently had been going on for a number 3029 02:39:34.840 --> 02:39:37.959 of years, and the FAA is coming out saying that, 3030 02:39:38.120 --> 02:39:41.799 you know, we're gonna make sure that this doesn't happen again. Boeing, 3031 02:39:41.840 --> 02:39:44.000 when they brought their employees back from the strike, they 3032 02:39:44.079 --> 02:39:47.760 did wait an entire month before they resumed operation of 3033 02:39:47.879 --> 02:39:50.799 the production line to make sure that these safety issues 3034 02:39:50.799 --> 02:39:53.399 were addressed. I like to see that, But it's gonna 3035 02:39:53.399 --> 02:39:55.440 be five years before you're going to ask me if 3036 02:39:55.520 --> 02:39:58.559 I'm comfortable with war Boeing zat because I believed them 3037 02:39:58.600 --> 02:40:01.000 five years ago, and I look like an absolute idiot 3038 02:40:01.360 --> 02:40:03.719 when I believe them with all their paragraphs of promise, 3039 02:40:03.799 --> 02:40:06.399 because they didn't do a single thing. They talked, Oh 3040 02:40:06.399 --> 02:40:07.959 they're gonna get rid of the CEO, that's going to 3041 02:40:08.079 --> 02:40:08.479 change things. 3042 02:40:08.559 --> 02:40:09.000 No I didn't. 3043 02:40:09.159 --> 02:40:11.399 Oh we're gonna return to the days of old. 3044 02:40:11.680 --> 02:40:12.280 No they didn't. 3045 02:40:12.399 --> 02:40:14.360 They didn't do a stupid thing, and if anything, they 3046 02:40:14.399 --> 02:40:16.879 got worse. And that's one of the reasons that to me, 3047 02:40:17.040 --> 02:40:20.280 I'm just furious. And obviously I'm hoping the FAA this 3048 02:40:20.440 --> 02:40:23.280 time is serious about doing their job and making sure 3049 02:40:23.280 --> 02:40:23.879 that Boeing is. 3050 02:40:23.920 --> 02:40:27.040 Doing theirs well, you know, as you're saying that, and 3051 02:40:27.319 --> 02:40:30.319 I approve, I guess on some level appreciate your confidence 3052 02:40:30.360 --> 02:40:34.079 in the FAA's ability to actually do its task properly. 3053 02:40:34.200 --> 02:40:37.120 But you're you're, yeah, you're relying on government employees. 3054 02:40:39.680 --> 02:40:41.159 Some of them are really really good at what they do, 3055 02:40:41.280 --> 02:40:43.920 and you just don't have enough of them. And sometimes 3056 02:40:43.959 --> 02:40:46.799 in the past, part of the certification process that was 3057 02:40:46.879 --> 02:40:50.280 stamped by a Boeing inspector was actually allowed to be 3058 02:40:50.360 --> 02:40:53.760 done by Boeing employees and where they would oh, yeah, 3059 02:40:53.799 --> 02:40:55.719 that's fine, boom and they would just stamp it as okay, 3060 02:40:55.799 --> 02:40:58.440 certified and it would roll through the process without an 3061 02:40:58.559 --> 02:41:02.440 FAA inspector everlang eyes on the work that was being done. 3062 02:41:02.600 --> 02:41:06.079 Now that has stopped because we've taken the keys away 3063 02:41:06.120 --> 02:41:08.120 from Boeing as far as calling the shots on that. 3064 02:41:08.719 --> 02:41:11.799 But I mean, there's so many different indications where, you know, 3065 02:41:11.879 --> 02:41:14.639 the traveling public simply is still not comfortable with Boeing. 3066 02:41:15.079 --> 02:41:17.840 I've gotten emails for the last year from individuals all 3067 02:41:17.920 --> 02:41:20.840 over the country that are traveling saying, Jay, I'm gonna 3068 02:41:20.959 --> 02:41:24.239 be looking for air Bus senner raies or bombardier or 3069 02:41:24.639 --> 02:41:28.680 some other type of equipment because I'm not comfortable flying Boeing. 3070 02:41:28.799 --> 02:41:30.959 Now again, I think that's extreme. When Cherry and I fly, 3071 02:41:31.479 --> 02:41:34.719 if it's a Boeing aircraft, we jump on. But that's 3072 02:41:34.760 --> 02:41:37.559 not to say that I'm not slightly concerned because some 3073 02:41:37.719 --> 02:41:40.639 of these things have been allowed to happen, and the 3074 02:41:40.719 --> 02:41:43.000 concern is are any of these failed parts on these 3075 02:41:43.040 --> 02:41:46.440 airplanes I'm boarding. So yeah, obviously I'm a little bit concerned. 3076 02:41:46.440 --> 02:41:48.879 As we go, fair enough, I would expect some flight 3077 02:41:48.959 --> 02:41:51.120 delays on the West coast. What's the story on the 3078 02:41:52.319 --> 02:41:53.440 flight situation today? 3079 02:41:54.079 --> 02:41:56.840 We are seeing impact into Lax just a bit the brain. 3080 02:41:56.920 --> 02:41:58.600 The real problem children of the day are going to 3081 02:41:58.639 --> 02:42:00.959 be Dallas and Houston, and especially Dallas. 3082 02:42:01.000 --> 02:42:02.200 We're seeing some icing. 3083 02:42:02.559 --> 02:42:05.120 And some rain that's going to be coming through in 3084 02:42:05.360 --> 02:42:08.600 snow that are going to be impacting the areas of Dallas, 3085 02:42:08.680 --> 02:42:10.399 and that's going to be the one impacted the most. 3086 02:42:11.239 --> 02:42:14.040 Houston's also with United Airlines, going to see some issues 3087 02:42:14.280 --> 02:42:17.120 as the storm system, a violent one, pushes up through there. 3088 02:42:17.440 --> 02:42:20.239 If you're flying American airlines today, get to the airport early. 3089 02:42:20.719 --> 02:42:23.600 They may do what's called an online reroute, where you 3090 02:42:23.680 --> 02:42:25.920 may be scheduled to fly through Dallas and they say Hey, 3091 02:42:26.159 --> 02:42:28.600 we can get you to your destination through Chicago or 3092 02:42:28.639 --> 02:42:32.280 through another American hub to avoid that mess. So getting 3093 02:42:32.319 --> 02:42:34.399 to the airport extra early can certainly work to your 3094 02:42:34.440 --> 02:42:37.280 advantage because Dallas is going to be an area that 3095 02:42:37.360 --> 02:42:38.239 you know a lot of people. 3096 02:42:38.000 --> 02:42:39.239 Are going to be trying to avoid. 3097 02:42:39.719 --> 02:42:43.639 Unfortunately, January is a lighter travel month, so it's nice 3098 02:42:43.719 --> 02:42:45.879 that these storms didn't hit us two weeks ago or 3099 02:42:45.920 --> 02:42:48.799 even a week ago, when every single flight was overfilled. 3100 02:42:49.120 --> 02:42:51.040 Today it's a lot easier, and it's going to give 3101 02:42:51.040 --> 02:42:52.520 the agents an opportunity to better. 3102 02:42:52.360 --> 02:42:52.920 Take care of us. 3103 02:42:53.319 --> 02:42:56.879 Fair enough, Jay Rat, appreciate the information passed along to 3104 02:42:56.920 --> 02:42:59.479 my listeners in our conversation every week.
