Speaker 1: If you watch literally any of the late night hosts
Speaker 1: last night, believe it or not, they all had the
Speaker 1: same awful take, essentially further further alienating the opportunity for
Speaker 1: I don't know, half the country to want to watch
Speaker 1: their show. This is a thing that kills me. Can
Speaker 1: you imagine the level of respect that people might have?
Speaker 1: And it couldn't be Kimmel. He is, he is unredeemable
Speaker 1: at this point. But let's say, Ross, who do you
Speaker 1: think is the least off putting of the night host?
Speaker 1: Maybe probably Fallen?
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, I go, I go Fallen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Fallin. I think Seth might be able
Speaker 1: to pull this off. But the other two, Colbert and whatnot.
Speaker 1: It's not gonna happen if you just came out and
Speaker 1: didn't act like the world just ended. I know that
Speaker 1: there's a portion of your audience that once said, and
Speaker 1: maybe the smarter play is just to lean into that
Speaker 1: because they don't they don't have anyone, they don't have
Speaker 1: anyone to you know, to go to kind of thing
Speaker 1: saying because that which is not which is an inaccurate
Speaker 1: way to sit there and wind people up. I gotta
Speaker 1: tell you I have and I'm sure you had concerns
Speaker 1: as to, well, what does this mean? What happens if
Speaker 1: Trump wins? And you know what, I you know what
Speaker 1: angle I'm asking from?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: You remember the sheer, insanity, the nonsense, the violence, the
Speaker 1: the the the murder them, the murders of people, you know,
Speaker 1: at each other's throat over this stuff. And I'm cautiously
Speaker 1: optimistic that maybe maybe it's because it didn't work last
Speaker 1: time that we're not seeing it now. I don't know, Ross,
Speaker 1: technically I am. I'm in the triad. You're in the triangle.
Speaker 1: Could you do me a fair?
Speaker 3: You know what?
Speaker 1: Could you do me a fair? Could you go look
Speaker 1: out the other window and tell me if downtown Raleigh's
Speaker 1: on fire? Because I don't I want to say anything
Speaker 1: that's inaccurate. I can tell you that high Downtown high
Speaker 1: Point is not on fire, all right, Ross is checking?
Speaker 1: Uh huh? What I can?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.
Speaker 1: You'd have to go around. Yeah, I know where you
Speaker 1: are fire hell basically hellscape look yeah, nothing, okay? Good?
Speaker 1: How good that is?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 1: Yes, you know, no, come back around? Yeah, but if
Speaker 1: it gets really hot all of a sudden, you know,
Speaker 1: pleasure you're doing business with you so you know, there's that.
Speaker 2: To be fair, the fire alarm did go off at
Speaker 2: like four am this morning in the building. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 2: for a second, I was like, oh no, here, they're here.
Speaker 1: Dude, I'm not gonna lie. I was, so I don't
Speaker 1: know how much detail I got to give I have
Speaker 1: to to get into the building. I got. I gotta
Speaker 1: walk across the stretch open ground here, and there's almost
Speaker 1: never anybody. I've never seen anybody in the parking lot
Speaker 1: this early other than you know, known radio vehicles, right
Speaker 1: other hosts, uh uh, the station vehicles. And there was
Speaker 1: like three cars who whipped into the parking lot when
Speaker 1: I was pulling in this morning. But then I saw
Speaker 1: like three women in their like fifties in clearly what
Speaker 1: is like speed walking gear. So I'm like, dah, probably okay,
Speaker 1: so they're off strolling around downtown high Point or whatever
Speaker 1: they do in the morning. But that being said, you
Speaker 1: have it now. It's not the weekend yet. And technically
Speaker 1: she didn't concede until yesterday. And remember they didn't have
Speaker 1: Remember the first Remember the remember the first big jaunt
Speaker 1: they had, which was the rejection of Trump's mere existence.
Speaker 1: And then they hit you know, with the with the hats,
Speaker 1: remember the pink hats, you know, the hats I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: And then they did one after and it just didn't live.
Speaker 1: Oh it was signedst against Trump. Remember that. Oh we
Speaker 1: had scientists against Trump. And it's like, well, if it
Speaker 1: didn't work last time, do you think that maybe people
Speaker 1: because you need those events for the periphery to do
Speaker 1: what they do. Remember the very first act of dude.
Speaker 1: Do you guys remember the very first big act of
Speaker 1: violence that we you know, became a national news story
Speaker 1: following the election of Trump. I do, And it was
Speaker 1: on the periphery of one of those gatherings. Remember they
Speaker 1: burned the dude's limousine, the immigrant dude's limousine. He comes
Speaker 1: to America, legally, comes to America, works his butt off,
Speaker 1: is able to as a driver, saves up enough money
Speaker 1: to go. You know what, I can do this better.
Speaker 1: And I can't remember where they said he was from,
Speaker 1: but it was I remember reading an article and he
Speaker 1: he or somebody who was talking about where this guy
Speaker 1: came from. They're like, you wouldn't if you did that
Speaker 1: in the country, you'd be upsetting the like the criminal
Speaker 1: organizations that handle the taxi business and stuff. But no,
Speaker 1: this guy comes to America, saves his money, buys a limousine,
Speaker 1: and that's that's his job. This feeds his family and
Speaker 1: he has the audacity to be within six blocks of
Speaker 1: where one of these nitwig gatherings is going on. So
Speaker 1: what do they do? They torch his limousine. They torched
Speaker 1: the hard working immigrants limousine. So please, I am cautiously
Speaker 1: optimistic we won't get there and maybe they'll just memory
Speaker 1: hold it. All right, you're ready, I want to do
Speaker 1: a thought exercise. Ross. You're the victim because you're the
Speaker 1: only other one on the show. So thought exercise. I
Speaker 1: want you to pretend we put you in one of
Speaker 1: those sensory deprivation chambers for like the week leading up
Speaker 1: to the election. Okay, you have consumed no news, you
Speaker 1: have talked to no people. You have basically just which
Speaker 1: By the way, that sounds relaxing, doesn't it. We should
Speaker 1: get a sensory deprivation chamber for the studio. Right, you
Speaker 1: can see the salespeople coming down giving tour pop into
Speaker 1: that thing. You're home free. AnyWho, I'm sorry, let me
Speaker 1: get back to this all right, So, Ross, you've been
Speaker 1: in the sensory deprivation chamber all week? You know nothing, right,
Speaker 1: But what is the big question on your mind when
Speaker 1: we pull you out of it yesterday? What would be
Speaker 1: the first thing you would probably ask?
Speaker 2: Did the bills win on Sunday? Okay?
Speaker 1: What would be the second thing? You would ask?
Speaker 2: Who's the president?
Speaker 1: Right? So I would? I would, And this is what
Speaker 1: we're doing is we're checking your predictive analysis. Okay, So
Speaker 1: I say, great, you want to know the president. I
Speaker 1: would tell you the bills score. You guys did win,
Speaker 1: by the way, kudos, And then I would tell you,
Speaker 1: all right, I'm gonna let me flip on the TV
Speaker 1: to wrl's eleven o'clock news broadcast, right the nightly news.
Speaker 1: How many minutes do you think you would linger there
Speaker 1: before they would ever tell you that Donald Trump was
Speaker 1: elected president on the night on the day after nightly news,
Speaker 1: Like it's the biggest story out there, that should be
Speaker 1: the first story, right, was it? Eleven minutes? Hold on, sorry,
Speaker 1: it's none just realized it an evident right in front.
Speaker 1: Eleven minutes you would go eleven minutes.
Speaker 2: You open up a newspaper, you should be in the
Speaker 2: front page of big, bold face letters. And if you
Speaker 2: watch the news, it should be the first.
Speaker 1: Thing they say, Yeah, give me Truman holding that paper.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Let's do this thing. Dewey,
Speaker 1: what a piece of crap, right, Uugh, all right, I
Speaker 1: don't really know nothing about him. But but but my
Speaker 1: point is, are you kidding me? I had multiple listeners
Speaker 1: send this over.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: I skimmed it on what they posted, So I'm going
Speaker 1: to take your word for it, because sometimes when they post,
Speaker 1: they actually post the clips there and you kind of
Speaker 1: string them together. It's hard to tell if it's the
Speaker 1: pat the same package they ran that being said it clearly,
Speaker 1: and and don't get me wrong, they got screen calls
Speaker 1: crawl stuff, but I'm talking the anchors and that's mind boggling.
Speaker 1: But if that's how people who can't just deal want
Speaker 1: to deal with it, it's better than burning immigrants limousines
Speaker 1: that were their entire livelihood, their entire livelihood because you
Speaker 1: don't like the way something went. Don't get me wrong,
Speaker 1: if Kamala Harris won, there'd be a lot of dooming
Speaker 1: bloom calls on this show. But I also don't think
Speaker 1: there'd be burned immigrant limousines littering the streets of America.
Speaker 1: Republicans tend to just turn off in a lot of cases,
Speaker 1: and it's good and it's bad. One. It's a coping mechanism.
Speaker 1: It's not a very healthy one internalizing all your stuff.
Speaker 1: And I recognize that. That being said, it's far better
Speaker 1: that you would internalize something that. Frankly, it should be
Speaker 1: dealt with amongst friends, family, your doctors if it's to
Speaker 1: that level, and not openly raging at your coworkers. And
Speaker 1: I haven't seen a lot of coworkers stuff either.
Speaker 2: So we had a behind the scenes, so we had
Speaker 2: a meeting about this right with the boss about like,
Speaker 2: what do you think would be better for the show
Speaker 2: if we're going to think about it from this perspective
Speaker 2: as to who were to win? And the boss is like, oh,
Speaker 2: it'd probably be Kamala, right, because everybody would be like
Speaker 2: super pissed and want to tune in out. And I'm like, no, man,
Speaker 2: I know our audience and I know the electorate, and
Speaker 2: they would tune out because they would be just burnt
Speaker 2: out and over it and I just need to get
Speaker 2: away from it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And they'd come back because we're awesome.
Speaker 2: But you're right, Yeah, because I know myself, I would
Speaker 2: be the same way. I'd be like, I'm dejected, I'm upset,
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna withdraw.
Speaker 1: And you're perplexed. And you can be perplexed. That's fine
Speaker 1: if you're you're a hair supporter, and you should be
Speaker 1: if if you were that passion, you were that sure
Speaker 1: of it, you should be perplexed. But you should also
Speaker 1: evaluate why you're perplaying.
Speaker 2: And I'm talking about everything involving politics, right, I would
Speaker 2: put my phone away. Oh I would. It's yeah. I
Speaker 2: did this thing before when the Yankees. There was a
Speaker 2: while back where the Yankees had a really good season
Speaker 2: and then they completely blew it at the end. And
Speaker 2: what I did is I remember this and followed every
Speaker 2: Yankee account that I was following it. I'm like, I like,
Speaker 2: I'm done. I don't want to interact with it. I
Speaker 2: don't want to engage with it. It's over. It would
Speaker 2: be the same way in social media. I would put
Speaker 2: my phone away. I would probably delete X off my
Speaker 2: phone and I would just disengage for a long time. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but I would. I would not set a limousine on
Speaker 2: fire and then leave the country but not really, I
Speaker 2: would not. Oh, okay, because you won't leave the country anyway.
Speaker 2: So yeah, and so we got our annual list of
Speaker 2: everyone who says they're leaving the country who hasn't left
Speaker 2: the country yet. Did Bette Midler did lead her account?
Speaker 2: By the way, I saw that this morning.
Speaker 1: I didn't have a chance to check to see if
Speaker 1: it's photoshopped or not.
Speaker 2: I think she did.
Speaker 1: Did she actually post a picture of drain cleaner next
Speaker 1: to a bottle of wine and says if she's drinking
Speaker 1: based on who wins? Did she drink the draino? Do
Speaker 1: we know? I bet Bette Middler did not drink the draino?
Speaker 1: So anyway, that one I saw previously. I don't know
Speaker 1: if anyone's asked her about Well they can on X
Speaker 1: because she got rid of the account. Well, I'm here
Speaker 1: to tell you there were a lot of reactions. Poor
Speaker 1: Ross has been having to sift through the sadness this
Speaker 1: morning so he can go ahead and get her in
Speaker 1: the system, you know. So and then he and then
Speaker 1: after he's done doing that, he had to dub in set.
Speaker 1: Do we have seven or eight view cuts? Seven cuts
Speaker 1: right from the view, Yes, seven view cuts so you
Speaker 1: want to talk about somebody who's who's done the heavy
Speaker 1: lift already this morning.
Speaker 2: It's so.
Speaker 1: How are you feeling?
Speaker 3: All?
Speaker 5: My takeaway is that the system works. We live in
Speaker 5: a democracy. People spoke, This is what people wanted. I
Speaker 5: vehemently disagree with the decision that Americans made, but I
Speaker 5: feel very very hopeful that we have a democratic system
Speaker 5: in this country. We should value it, we should love it.
Speaker 5: We should protest if the situation arises, protest, which I'm
Speaker 5: shureing well, and I've been through this before with Nixon.
Speaker 5: It's been very difficult, but boy, oh boy, do we
Speaker 5: have a country if we can keep it?
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, all right, Ross, So I was completely wrong.
Speaker 1: That sounds very reasonable what she just said, doesn't it.
Speaker 1: That sounds extremely joy behar opening volley. They're very reasonable. Oh,
Speaker 1: I probably don't even need to play the rest, right,
Speaker 1: it's probably pretty boring, just you know, talking about ponies
Speaker 1: or something. Didn't even get into it. Well, I am,
Speaker 1: I am excited. I mean we'll still have to play
Speaker 1: because I mean Russ dubbed him and he went through
Speaker 1: the work. But if it sounds like it's uh, it's
Speaker 1: it's it's completely reasonable there at the view and for that,
Speaker 1: I'm very excited. Okay, well we'll continue down that road.
Speaker 1: And I read a fascinating piece this morning about the
Speaker 1: the the late, the late strategy of the Trump campaign,
Speaker 1: and I'm telling you there's two key takeaways. Those two
Speaker 1: things may have won him the election, or at the
Speaker 1: very least won him. Uh you know three or four
Speaker 1: of those swing states that we're close. I'll explain coming
Speaker 1: up here on the CaCO Day radio program. I think
Speaker 1: very instructive to the transition that you've seen with Donald
Speaker 1: Trump the politician, from you know, escalator days to today. Okay,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump got Donald Donald Trump has any go you
Speaker 1: have to There's a certain amount of audacity that you
Speaker 1: have to have to go, Hey, everybody, ay, all three
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty million, I will ah be in charge. Right,
Speaker 1: That's there's a certain audacity there. And it so but
Speaker 1: but so when you're like that and people backstab you,
Speaker 1: it it sticks with you, man, and and and you
Speaker 1: internalize and and it it has become clear and it
Speaker 1: became clear that the course of this h this this
Speaker 1: uh this last election, that he didn't trust I mean,
Speaker 1: I shouldn't say he didn't trust anybody, very few people,
Speaker 1: very few people. And almost every major decision or undertaking
Speaker 1: passed through a member of his family. Almost everyone. Laura
Speaker 1: Trump was instrumental. North Carolina native Laura Trump was instrumental.
Speaker 1: We talked her on the show numerous times. Very nice,
Speaker 1: but very business minded. Right his sons to some extent,
Speaker 1: I would argue, I would argue his son's wife, Lauren
Speaker 1: was out there more Avanka doing some stuff. Kushner behind
Speaker 1: the scenes, basically handling all of the transition because remember,
Speaker 1: they're going to do their own transition because they don't trust,
Speaker 1: they don't trust folks within the government to not seed
Speaker 1: moles in there. This is spy stuff, kind of level stuff,
Speaker 1: but it's the reality of politics. And you probably noticed
Speaker 1: a shift in the campaign, and I'll give you an example.
Speaker 1: The thing that baffled me and Ross we talked about
Speaker 1: this was Trump not re embracing Twitter the way that
Speaker 1: he did, especially under Musk ownership initially because remember initially
Speaker 1: we were like, oh, okay, is you gonna be back
Speaker 1: on Twitter?
Speaker 6: Now?
Speaker 1: That him and Elanor bros. And I think that opened
Speaker 1: the door for it because Donald Trump had went out
Speaker 1: and he started his own thing, and the business mind
Speaker 1: of Donald Trump was, look, this is my thing, that's
Speaker 1: his thing. I'm gonna do my thing, and my thing
Speaker 1: is gonna be awesome, and and and and someone convinced him.
Speaker 1: And I think it was just the the budding and
Speaker 1: romance there that he needed to be on Twitter. That
Speaker 1: was a more minor thing. The thing that you saw
Speaker 1: at the end, though, was Donald Trump all over these
Speaker 1: podcasts he did, but he did Theobaughn he did, uh,
Speaker 1: and not not just Trump, but Trump and Vance Theovaughn.
Speaker 1: Hold on, I got a whole list here. I think
Speaker 1: Aiden Ross, which I don't understand. He did a Logan podcast.
Speaker 7: Uh.
Speaker 1: And then of course the granddaddy of them all, he
Speaker 1: did Joe Rogan. So how did we get there? Well,
Speaker 1: here's the here's the story. You ready, And I think
Speaker 1: this is this is crazy interesting. Trump's campaign strategy, Uh,
Speaker 1: in the latter half of the campaign was finally decided
Speaker 1: to quote target young men who primarily interact with politics
Speaker 1: through podcasts and social media, okay, but also protect women,
Speaker 1: so in fact, they have a word for it. Well,
Speaker 1: we'll get to it. We'll get to it as I
Speaker 1: go through this threat. And I've retweeted this thread for
Speaker 1: you and there's a link at the bottom. Okay, so
Speaker 1: they he brought in a guy by the name of
Speaker 1: Alex Bruskowitz or Bruskewitz. I don't how to pronounce. If
Speaker 1: you're on Twitter, or bruce Witz Brussewitz. If you're on Twitter,
Speaker 1: you've seen this guy. We follow him. The show account
Speaker 1: follows him because you seeah, you got little nuggets out there.
Speaker 1: And he's twenty seven. The campaign manager, Susie Wiles brought
Speaker 1: him in and his job was to exploit opportunities with
Speaker 1: podcasts and social media, and so he's not the social
Speaker 1: media side per se. We'll learn about that in the moment.
Speaker 1: But he's handling bookings and he put together a list
Speaker 1: of these and got on a phone call with Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: who was on who was on the golf course at
Speaker 1: that time. According to this he got onto a call
Speaker 1: with senior advisor Daniel Alvarez and the President and said,
Speaker 1: I have a list of podcasts, Sir, that I want
Speaker 1: to pitch you, and and Trump reportedly stopped him in
Speaker 1: mid sentence and said, have you run him by Baron yet? No, sir,
Speaker 1: said the twenty seven year old stafford. He said, you
Speaker 1: call Baron, you see what he thinks on each of these,
Speaker 1: and then you get back to me. And apparently at
Speaker 1: that point it was also a little struggle to Neil
Speaker 1: Barren down because his mom, Milania is she does and
Speaker 1: rightfully so, she didn't want him near a lot of
Speaker 1: this stuff because I mean, would they put her through?
Speaker 1: What did she ever do to anybody? What did she
Speaker 1: ever do to anybody? And Baron allegedly went through the
Speaker 1: list indicated the ones because he apparently he's a podcast junkie,
Speaker 1: loves podcasts. He's you know, he's of legal voting age.
Speaker 1: He's in that young male demo, the very bottom of it.
Speaker 1: But he's there and he loves the podcast. He loves
Speaker 1: the guy focused podcast. And once Baron signed off on it,
Speaker 1: they set the schedule. I think that's I correct me
Speaker 1: if I'm wrong. I think that that won them some states.
Speaker 1: It absolutely had an impact. Although the one reporter here
Speaker 1: is like, I was coordinating with Baron book Trump on
Speaker 1: a marathon of the bro frat like interviews Theo von Logan,
Speaker 1: Paul Joe Rogan and others. And then if you look
Speaker 1: at the numbers, the very demos that they were targeting
Speaker 1: with those, they saw dramatic increases.
Speaker 2: We speculated on this a while ago. We said, you know,
Speaker 2: as Barack Obama was really the first to use the
Speaker 2: Internet to expand his base and reach out to his
Speaker 2: and fundraising. Yeah, yeah, he Trump did the same thing,
Speaker 2: but he did it with with podcasts.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: We mentioned this about. I mean that that's what we
Speaker 2: were seeing anyways, Like he's doing it differently with these
Speaker 2: Burro podcasts.
Speaker 1: But look at the look at the investment of what
Speaker 1: is that two staff members a few minutes of his
Speaker 1: son's time, and the benefit he got from it, like
Speaker 1: from a cost benefit analysis, that's crazy. But it's not
Speaker 1: the only story. He saw the crossovers with the eighteen
Speaker 1: twenty nine demo, Yes, yes, But the other half of
Speaker 1: that is social media. And this is what Ross and
Speaker 1: I were talking about there. Nobody knew for sure who
Speaker 1: was running a couple of the Trump social media Twitter
Speaker 1: and TikTok and all that, and and they they these
Speaker 1: leftists would do these you know, like Jojo and and others.
Speaker 1: They would do these investigations. I think it's this guy
Speaker 1: and it's his burner account.
Speaker 2: Bah.
Speaker 1: And then every time they do it, all it would
Speaker 1: do is bring an immense amount of attention to this
Speaker 1: account or these accounts that were dominating in social media
Speaker 1: reach versus what the Harris campaign was doing. The Harris campaign,
Speaker 1: by the way, was running How we know that at
Speaker 1: least what probably twenty employees minimum because we saw the
Speaker 1: picture right of their diversity, which it's just all young women.
Speaker 1: But Ross was telling me something fascinating. So they have
Speaker 1: they and you just retweeted this too, just so I
Speaker 1: have it right here, okay, all right. So it was
Speaker 1: like it was a few dudes sitting in I don't know,
Speaker 1: on the they sit on the golf course, tweeting stuff,
Speaker 1: they're gaming. I don't even know what to do. It
Speaker 1: was just it was just a handful of guys. They
Speaker 1: ran all of the social media for Trump, and they
Speaker 1: whipped Harris's behind in all of the metrics. And it's
Speaker 1: funny because Price, the guy you're telling me about, is
Speaker 1: the guy that I saw Jojo accusing of it, and
Speaker 1: he just toyed with her, just toyed with her the
Speaker 1: whole time. Absolutely hilarious.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: So if you want to, you want to check either
Speaker 1: of those out, you want a little insight into what's
Speaker 1: going on we got those for you at Casey on
Speaker 1: the radio, on the Twitter.
Speaker 2: You know what's crazy to me too is when you
Speaker 2: look at you know, Trump embracing the bro podcast, and
Speaker 2: then on the other side you have Kamala Harris, who
Speaker 2: you know obviously looks like they avoided the Joe Rogan podcast.
Speaker 2: But at the same time she went on SNL. So
Speaker 2: did she think that SNL had a better poll than
Speaker 2: Joe Rogan? Because that is absurd and that's what it
Speaker 2: looks like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's I there is this this fascination with
Speaker 1: do you know there are I'll tell you the thing
Speaker 1: that was most amazing to me. One time, when when
Speaker 1: I was working in Minneapolis, we had during Vikings games,
Speaker 1: we had more reach than every other than TV Vikings,
Speaker 1: more reach than every other TV station in the local market.
Speaker 1: Why because people flocked to that's what they wanted to hear. Obviously,
Speaker 1: people love the Vikings up in Minnesota, and we have
Speaker 1: it to broadcast them, so good for us. We had
Speaker 1: like sixty two shares and stuff. I mean, it was crazy.
Speaker 1: I could tell you some of these because they did
Speaker 1: an article about this in one of the industry publications,
Speaker 1: and so I can sit there and say, well, you know, frankly,
Speaker 1: my time is better spent on I think the top
Speaker 1: TV station at the time was WCCO. They didn't have
Speaker 1: the vikings, but you know, for their number, they were
Speaker 1: the most consistently solid draw there, but not during that time.
Speaker 1: And so you got to ask yourself everything you think
Speaker 1: you know doesn't comport with the numbers. And there is
Speaker 1: no metric on Earth where SNL beats Joe Rogan in reach.
Speaker 1: It doesn't exist. I don't know how far you'd have
Speaker 1: to go back in Rogan's podcast career to find a
Speaker 1: number that's on par with the reach that SNL has.
Speaker 1: It's not even close. So a whole series of airs whatever.
Speaker 1: And then yesterday, after not doing it the night of Kamala,
Speaker 1: Harris decided we are gonna go and we are going
Speaker 1: to uh, we're gonna We're gonna concede. And her speech
Speaker 1: was fine, But it's what happened before the speech that
Speaker 1: I'm sorry I have I lost my mind over this ross.
Speaker 1: Did you see what happened just the moment before they
Speaker 1: came out on stage for her to concede.
Speaker 2: I think I know what you're talking about. I think
Speaker 2: you the squirrel.
Speaker 1: A squirrel ran across the stage. A squirrel, a squirrel,
Speaker 1: squirrel ran across the stage. It's either the ghost of
Speaker 1: Peanut or the bravest squirrel ever. I mean, think of
Speaker 1: the audacity of a squirrel to run through a crowd
Speaker 1: of a thousand moonbats. A lot of them, a lot
Speaker 1: of them government workers are campaign workers. That's who she's
Speaker 1: talking to.
Speaker 2: Get the maga squirrel.
Speaker 1: Yes, they want nothing more to take it and inject
Speaker 1: it with poison like that's yeah, they live for it,
Speaker 1: all right, that's a little unfair. But the side you
Speaker 1: ever see that squirrel with the giant acorns hanging down
Speaker 1: You know this picture I'm talking about, You see it?
Speaker 1: Meaned it's a squirrel and he's just he's packing down there.
Speaker 1: If he catch him a drift, just low and low
Speaker 1: and slow. Right, that's it's either that squirrel or one
Speaker 1: with bigger ones. Because that's the crowd that you decided
Speaker 1: to run across the stage in front of. I applaud
Speaker 1: the UH talked about audacity, that squirrel audacity right there, Man,
Speaker 1: one false move and you're done. You're like the action
Speaker 1: hero charging into the fifty guys in the field. With
Speaker 1: your exploding arrows talking about Rambo here right, you just
Speaker 1: knew you could get it done. So that was amazing
Speaker 1: good for that squirrel, but also bad because then he
Speaker 1: had to sit there and listen to her this election.
Speaker 4: I do not concede the fight that fueled this campaign.
Speaker 2: What does that?
Speaker 1: I have a question what does that mean? What does
Speaker 1: that mean? And and and because it's it's it's largely meaningless.
Speaker 1: It's it's puffery. It's uh, it's pure pol Like let's say,
Speaker 1: let's say hypothetically, Uh, the Bills go to the super Bowl,
Speaker 1: the Vikings go to the super Bowl, and Ross and
Speaker 1: I unfortunately are in that thing, and then one of
Speaker 1: our teams wins. Does the other person have to go?
Speaker 1: I concede the super Bowl title, but not our willingness
Speaker 1: to play football. You say, you're how stupid that sounds,
Speaker 1: because in the real world, Uh, if you're the fans
Speaker 1: that lose, you're like, I don't know, maybe you should
Speaker 1: just play it a little better. I'm glad that you're
Speaker 1: not gonna quit. You're all not gonna be like we're done.
Speaker 1: But bet because those are the expectations, and the expectations
Speaker 1: are high when you are at the highest levels, whether
Speaker 1: it be President, super Bowl, whatever. I think the Bills
Speaker 1: would beat us right now, got some weird stuff coming up.
Speaker 2: Just the thought of that being the super Bowl makes
Speaker 2: them so uncomfortable.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, awful. I think we'd almost have to truce
Speaker 1: it out. Yeah, where we couldn't talk about.
Speaker 2: It to be able to talk about it. So because honestly,
Speaker 2: even if my team won, first off, I would be
Speaker 2: happy because one time before I want you to be
Speaker 2: happy the same way. But I would I would feel
Speaker 2: bad because you would feel bad. It would be really awkward.
Speaker 2: You know what.
Speaker 1: God, Yeah, here's what. Here's the one the one positive
Speaker 1: of it. Finally a team that's had got their teeth
Speaker 1: kicked in four times now granted you guys did it
Speaker 1: in a row uh and and and didn't quite make it.
Speaker 1: At least the curse would be over for one of us.
Speaker 1: So that's why I would feel good for you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then you know, go hide in that set ntary
Speaker 1: deprivation chamber. We talked about.
Speaker 4: The fight, the fight for freedom, for opportunity, for fairness
Speaker 4: and the dignity of all people, A.
Speaker 1: Fight for the all people, even the garbage ones.
Speaker 2: I just want to.
Speaker 1: I just want to be quar deals at.
Speaker 4: The heart of our nation, the ideals that reflect America
Speaker 4: at our best. That is a fight I will never
Speaker 4: give up.
Speaker 1: It's pretty boilerplate.
Speaker 4: The fight for a future where Americans can pursue their dreams, ambitions,
Speaker 4: and aspirations, where the women of America have the freedom
Speaker 4: to make decisions about their own body and not have
Speaker 4: their government telling them what to do.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Like I said, pretty boiler plate. Kind
Speaker 1: of what you'd expect, but you know it had to
Speaker 1: be done. Man. In the same way yesterday I was
Speaker 1: telling Rosses off the air I wanted to at the
Speaker 1: end of the day, I wanted nothing more than to
Speaker 1: cause I did get a nap, thankfully, and get a
Speaker 1: ton of sleep the night before and did all the
Speaker 1: stuff that I needed to do for work. Was gonna
Speaker 1: sit down and do prep and I can sit anywhere
Speaker 1: and do prep the non audio side of it, or
Speaker 1: if I got a pair of headphones, rock on, let's
Speaker 1: do this. And I'm like, all I want is like
Speaker 1: a beer or two, right, and and somebody eat so ye,
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's about five o'clock whatever, And then
Speaker 1: I realized I don't want to be I don't want
Speaker 1: to go to a place where I might have a
Speaker 1: bunch of people that look like they're ready to, you know,
Speaker 1: throw themselves from a cliff, or people are gonna want
Speaker 1: to get into debates about I don't have the bandwidth,
Speaker 1: I don't have the energy for it. So I literally
Speaker 1: googled rule dive bars. Yes, that's the thing that happened,
Speaker 1: and I had a couple in mind where I was
Speaker 1: thinking go, but I'm like, I want to go to
Speaker 1: some country bar where it's not the big guys you
Speaker 1: just got off a construction site. Maybe some bikers, but
Speaker 1: really in reality, I just I just I just want
Speaker 1: quiet around me. And I ended up going to I'll
Speaker 1: tell you where. It was actually very I met the
Speaker 1: owner there, a very nice guy. Old water and hole,
Speaker 1: which is uh. I guess it's technically in Winston Salem,
Speaker 1: but it's like between Wahlberg and Winston, or in this case,
Speaker 1: between high Point and Winston. And just sat there and
Speaker 1: let me tell you, I show up. It's dude. One
Speaker 1: of the dudes got a little Trump thing on his truck.
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, I picked the right place, and I
Speaker 1: went in there. We talked about pool.
Speaker 2: Beer.
Speaker 1: He's got to get it. Apparently his kid is is
Speaker 1: doing a brewery with some friends. Like it was just
Speaker 1: normal people conversation and what more could you ask for? Man,
Speaker 1: and and and so I would advise people who've been
Speaker 1: lied to, who who have been the vict you're the victims.
Speaker 1: If you're making these weepy videos, you're the victim too,
Speaker 1: the way the people informing you are the I don't
Speaker 1: feel bad for them, We'll be and the rest of
Speaker 1: her friends don't care. But you you're the victim. We'll
Speaker 1: be back off the era we're just talking about. Do
Speaker 1: you think that Kamala Harris ever does another sit down
Speaker 1: interview in before she's no longer the vice president in
Speaker 1: the in the in the next couple couple of months.
Speaker 1: Do you think at some point she sits down and
Speaker 1: actually is going to submit to an interview, which she's
Speaker 1: so bad at, but to actually talk about the election?
Speaker 1: Did you see the they sent out? Actually, hold on,
Speaker 1: I just remembered this. Well, right Ross, while I'm looking
Speaker 1: for this, you also made another good point, because with
Speaker 1: that question that you brought up would be one that
Speaker 1: I think that frankly, they should probably ask her, and
Speaker 1: it might be cathartic for all of these folks on
Speaker 1: social media right now absolutely losing their craft. We may not,
Speaker 1: you do, I just checked Ross. Would you check again
Speaker 1: see if she has rights?
Speaker 2: Sure, let me check she does? Oh? She does?
Speaker 1: Okay, go ahead ask your question. I think it's very funny. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that's a great question.
Speaker 2: Know I Kamala Harris conceded to Hitler because she seemed
Speaker 2: really pissed off about that guy, Like, you know, just
Speaker 2: a week ago she was, yeah, sitting stuff and screaming
Speaker 2: and literally, yeah, literally Hitler like a lunatic, you know what,
Speaker 2: while Kary Hitler was making people laugh in a garbage truck,
Speaker 2: giving them a very lighthearted moment in the middle of
Speaker 2: the campaign or the end of the campaign. But I mean,
Speaker 2: I mean, how did she concede to this monster? Did
Speaker 2: she literally, frank care about the Republic? You're France, you're
Speaker 2: the you're the Fins or no, who was it? Who
Speaker 2: was it who gave up in the Netherlands, You're the
Speaker 2: Netherlands surrendered to the I think the Nazis and what
Speaker 2: three days? No, But if you seriously, though, if you
Speaker 2: honestly think that that is hitler. You don't get up
Speaker 2: there and concede to him. You're right. So she either
Speaker 2: believed it.
Speaker 1: Or oh wait, oh, oh wait, hold on, what's the
Speaker 1: second one?
Speaker 2: Full of crap?
Speaker 1: Oh, full of crap, doesn't actually believe he's Hitler. I'm
Speaker 1: telling you that there are people as Glum is the
Speaker 1: face of a lot of Democrats stuff, there are people
Speaker 1: within the party, and arguably they're the smart people within
Speaker 1: the party that realize that the fundraising bonanza begins. Now
Speaker 1: everything is towards the mid terms, all of your messaging
Speaker 1: and all of your fundraising, and you have to pivot quick,
Speaker 1: and the pivot will be this is horrible. Obviously the
Speaker 1: Senate is lost all of this and he can't. He's
Speaker 1: gonna run rough shot. Never mind that you still needs
Speaker 1: sixty votes and a lot of this stuff. He's gonna
Speaker 1: he's gonna run rough shot. And uh so all we
Speaker 1: can do is four to five the mid terms, and
Speaker 1: that's where that's where they're gonna go with this, and
Speaker 1: it's and logically that is where you go with this.
Speaker 1: So the boogeyman stuff keeps up, so a somebody's pausing
Speaker 1: to think, any one of these folks.
Speaker 2: We may not.
Speaker 1: Right, you do.
Speaker 2: We just checked.
Speaker 1: You're welcome to go to sleep, wake up by them,
Speaker 1: try some whiskey, a lot of it real fast. I
Speaker 1: don't know how to do that now. I'm just not
Speaker 1: you know how to what adult? I can't deal with
Speaker 1: it right now? You can, though, you can. I Look,
Speaker 1: there's a part of me where this stuff is. It's
Speaker 1: it's mildly amusing in the sense that I don't understand
Speaker 1: people who would do this, but also it's incredibly sad.
Speaker 2: No, I like the first time in twenty sixteen, it
Speaker 2: was a me. This is Listen, there are people out
Speaker 2: there that are genuinely scared and afraid. It's sad because
Speaker 2: they don't realize they've been lied to. They've been lied
Speaker 2: to consistently for over a decade.
Speaker 1: And the absence of the horrible thing happening will not
Speaker 1: convince them.
Speaker 2: No, because the people that have been lying to them
Speaker 2: will continuely. You saw what you said it earlier with
Speaker 2: the Jimmy Kimmel came out last night and continued on
Speaker 2: with the fear and continued on with the with the nonsense.
Speaker 2: And they're in this this loop, this fear loop, where
Speaker 2: there's a doom loop.
Speaker 1: It's called a doom doom loop.
Speaker 2: It's great. Yeah, I haven't heard that, but yes, like
Speaker 2: they consistently lie to you, You're you're you're fearful that
Speaker 2: all these things are going to happen, which are complete nonsense.
Speaker 2: Which if you did, if you stepped away from these
Speaker 2: people and looked at some other ways of educating yourself,
Speaker 2: you'd be like, hey, maybe these people aren't telling me
Speaker 2: the truth. Maybe they don't have my best interest at heart,
Speaker 2: right and it just and you can still believe all
Speaker 2: the stuff you believe. This is what's crazy.
Speaker 1: You can believe that there should be on demand abortion everywhere, unfettered.
Speaker 1: You can you can believe all of these things and
Speaker 1: still know when people are feeding full of crap and
Speaker 1: that the world's not going to end. But maybe you
Speaker 1: get your way in four years and you work towards that.
Speaker 2: The whole, the whole fear of you know, I'm going
Speaker 2: to lose my rights as a woman, right well, Kamal Hares,
Speaker 2: even if she was elected, there's nothing she can do
Speaker 2: about it because now it was sent to the states,
Speaker 2: and when it's sent to the states, you actually have
Speaker 2: more influence and power to determine what's going to happen
Speaker 2: in your area because you can vote on it.
Speaker 1: That doesn't that doesn't keep the doom loop going.
Speaker 2: Though.
Speaker 1: The doom loop isn't just that it is. I suppase
Speaker 1: you haven't heard that. It's actually a mental health thing.
Speaker 1: I believe, right, yeah, And it's where you just constantly
Speaker 1: like the end is nigh, right, and it's part of
Speaker 1: depression and all these things.
Speaker 2: It's sort of like when you when you when you're
Speaker 2: not feeling well and you Google and it says you're
Speaker 2: going to die of cancer in two days, and then
Speaker 2: you're like, oh, it is every time right, and then
Speaker 2: you just keep googling and googling, and it puts you
Speaker 2: in a loop.
Speaker 1: And it puts you and if and so you're in
Speaker 1: this doom loop. But this is a thing that is
Speaker 1: is is recognized as problematic as part of mental health.
Speaker 1: And I don't know if doom loop is the technical term,
Speaker 1: but I've had this described to me as a doom
Speaker 1: loop by somebody who is a practicing psychiatrist friend of mine.
Speaker 1: And so this is doom loop. And you have inflicted
Speaker 1: a mental health condition on your people think of it
Speaker 1: as as physical right, If I told you a candidate,
Speaker 1: if you decide to support them, is going to come
Speaker 1: by and break your arm at some point, right, Costa
Speaker 1: Costa being friends, Costa being on the campaign, you'd be like,
Speaker 1: I am so out of this cult. Not no, I'm out.
Speaker 1: I don't want it, your arm breaking cult. I don't
Speaker 1: want to have my genitals branded looking at you next
Speaker 1: to him or whatever that crazy cult was. You you
Speaker 1: you wouldn't put up this is what this is. It's
Speaker 1: just a mental health version. And you know, if we
Speaker 1: believe that physical and mental health both require specialists and
Speaker 1: work and people to pay attention to it, and I
Speaker 1: believe we all agree with that, then why are you
Speaker 1: walking over to the arm break station so you can
Speaker 1: cast your vote And you don't have to change anything
Speaker 1: you think you need to change the people who represent
Speaker 1: what it is you think. And I know you're screaming
Speaker 1: at the radio if you hate me saying well, then
Speaker 1: Donald Trump represents that yes to enough people. Yeah, it does.
Speaker 1: And the doom part of the loop it didn't come
Speaker 1: to pass last time around. Yeah. I guess maybe some
Speaker 1: of you think it did because of the Roe decision,
Speaker 1: but that's not that wasn't the top tier of what
Speaker 1: they were promising. They were promising camps. Okay, they're promising
Speaker 1: camps execute U shou of LGBT. I mean this, that's
Speaker 1: what they were out there talking about. Not that you
Speaker 1: have to now petition at the state level versus the
Speaker 1: federal level for how you think abortion should happen. So
Speaker 1: don't get in the doom loop. And if you disagree
Speaker 1: with everything that I think, and that's fine, And we
Speaker 1: can still talk about shooting pool or a chili cook off,
Speaker 1: which I talked about yesterday when I was at the
Speaker 1: you know, the random country bar, and and and just
Speaker 1: human we're all gonna be better off for it. And
Speaker 1: I am hopeful not seeing really really really insane stuff.
Speaker 1: Whether we apparently have to talk about a sniper, we're
Speaker 1: gonna do that. In a moment. I'm gonna have to
Speaker 1: break away from this so we could talk about a sniper.
Speaker 1: Maybe they probably don't want me using that word, but
Speaker 1: I don't care. Sounds snipery to me. I'll explain. But
Speaker 1: other than that, like we'll get through this. And and
Speaker 1: and by the way, I would I would tell the
Speaker 1: same exact thing, and I have seen it manifest on
Speaker 1: the right. Don't let yourself get in a doom loop, man.
Speaker 1: And if you are in a doom loop and it
Speaker 1: never seems to come out, have the good sense to
Speaker 1: ask yourself the one thing, the thing they told me
Speaker 1: was going to happen that caused the most fear in
Speaker 1: my life, did it happen? And if it didn't last
Speaker 1: time and you don't see movement on it, you should
Speaker 1: start to doubt the person telling you that. And if
Speaker 1: it never comes to pass, why would you trust that
Speaker 1: individual again or that group again?
Speaker 2: You know? I see this with my mother back home
Speaker 2: in Okay. I know she lives by herself. She's seventy five.
Speaker 2: Until the last time I visited her, I thought she
Speaker 2: was having a stroke because she suddenly looked at me
Speaker 2: and she would she stop moving and she was just
Speaker 2: staring straight ahead. And I said, Mom, are you okay?
Speaker 2: And she goes, I can't talk right now, and I
Speaker 2: said why? And Donald Trump was on the TV. She
Speaker 2: loses her mind when she sees yeah, and I because
Speaker 2: she sits there and part of her routine every days
Speaker 2: she wakes up, it's the newspaper, does a crossword puzzle
Speaker 2: or whatever it is. She turns on the news and
Speaker 2: then she watches the view and then she watches it's all.
Speaker 2: She doesn't have any Internet, it's just NBC, ABC, CBS,
Speaker 2: and they told her. I said, MA, you gotta stop
Speaker 2: what And I hate saying it here because she she
Speaker 2: sees the women on the view as her friend. These
Speaker 2: are my friends.
Speaker 1: Sure, I get all of this, yeah, for that.
Speaker 2: And it's just I said, Ma, these women are lunatics
Speaker 2: and they're lying to you. And I don't know if
Speaker 2: it's intentional, but everything they're saying is not factual and
Speaker 2: it's garbage and it's tough to see it really is.
Speaker 1: And just which which which is the most audacious cut
Speaker 1: of the view here? I haven't got to all of
Speaker 1: them yet, but what's what's the craziest one?
Speaker 2: The hosted one?
Speaker 1: Which one is that?
Speaker 8: Oh?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah number three? Right you three?
Speaker 2: Yes? All right?
Speaker 1: Just I just want to I just want to put
Speaker 1: a punctuation on what Ross was saying. This is this
Speaker 1: is what his mom was treated to yesterday.
Speaker 7: And I remember my father telling me many many years
Speaker 7: ago that I was the first person and his family
Speaker 7: to enjoy full civil rights, and now I have less
Speaker 7: civil rights than I had. When he told me that
Speaker 7: so again, I'm profoundly disturbed that the fourteenth Amendment of
Speaker 7: the Constitution did not prevent someone who participated in an
Speaker 7: insurrection from becoming president of the United States. I think
Speaker 7: that going forward, the convicted felon box unemployment applications better
Speaker 7: be taken off, because if you can be the president
Speaker 7: of the United States.
Speaker 1: Then you should then you should not be prevented from.
Speaker 7: Employment in this country, because I remember applying for my
Speaker 7: jobs as a federal prosecutor and there was a box
Speaker 7: for convicted felons, and so that box better better be
Speaker 7: taken off. And I think our healthcare system is now
Speaker 7: at risk.
Speaker 5: I think no for anyone.
Speaker 7: Yeah, economists have made clear that he's going to increase
Speaker 7: the debt by seven point seventy five trillion dollars. I'm
Speaker 7: worried about mass deportation and internment camps. And I'm also
Speaker 7: worried about La Musk warning Americans to prepare for temporary hardship.
Speaker 7: I'm surprised at the result.
Speaker 1: But I'm not surprised.
Speaker 7: As a woman of color, I was so hopeful that
Speaker 7: a mixed race woman married to a Jewish guy could
Speaker 7: be elected president of this country. And I think that
Speaker 7: it had nothing to do with policy. I think this
Speaker 7: was a referendum of cultural resentment.
Speaker 1: You know what I just picked up. She admits it.
Speaker 1: There you heard she said. She said, I was a
Speaker 1: mixed race woman married to a Jewish guy. It has
Speaker 1: nothing to do with policy. And yeah, and I'm sorry
Speaker 1: your mom has to suffer through that the morning. But
Speaker 1: I also understand she's got a routine. She's seventy five,
Speaker 1: and that this is her outlet to the outside world
Speaker 1: when she's in her house. She's not on Twitter.
Speaker 2: So if you knew nothing about anything, and you just
Speaker 2: listen to the way, you know, Sonny Hostin sounds just
Speaker 2: the way she talks and articulates and speaks like this
Speaker 2: is a very educated person who knows what they're talking about.
Speaker 2: I can trust them. But the problem is everything she's
Speaker 2: saying is garbage.
Speaker 1: Everything she said is is the continued smear misrepresentation of things.
Speaker 1: And I'll give you an example, the convicted felon. Do
Speaker 1: you know what the Department of Justice is doing. They're
Speaker 1: removing Jack Smith. Trump's not in charge now. Jack Smith
Speaker 1: has being removed a special counsel and they are dropping
Speaker 1: his two federal investigations into Trump that was announced yesterday.
Speaker 1: Why do you think that is always gotta be president?
Speaker 1: But no, because it didn't work.
Speaker 2: So you took something that normally wouldn't even be looked at,
Speaker 2: and it was a misdemeanor, and they changed the laws
Speaker 2: of the state to turn it into thirty two felonies.
Speaker 2: And the reason they did it was to get him
Speaker 2: off the ticket so they wouldn't lose power in Washington,
Speaker 2: end of story. And most people saw through that and
Speaker 2: they were like, this is not the country that I
Speaker 2: was raised in. That's unfair, this is lawfair, not gonna
Speaker 2: have it voting for the felon.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I still firmly believe that he's not gonna have
Speaker 1: to pardon himself because really the state court stuff, he can't.
Speaker 1: But at the federal level, they're going to tell you
Speaker 1: that the reason they're removing Jack Smith and stopping the
Speaker 1: investigations is he'll just pardon himself five minutes after it
Speaker 1: takes place. And I don't know. I guess technically maybe
Speaker 1: he can.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Usually when when presidents have been pardoned, it's been whoever
Speaker 1: was next right that being said, they can spin that story,
Speaker 1: but no, that's not why they're doing it because it
Speaker 1: didn't work, and to stop it the day after is
Speaker 1: to give away the game. They did it because it
Speaker 1: doesn't work, and they're not going to find a lot
Speaker 1: of enthusiasm with other people within the DOJ for continuing
Speaker 1: to press this thing forward. Remember that judge down in
Speaker 1: Florida already kneecapped for his case. The thing was on
Speaker 1: life support anyway, it didn't work. Nobody wants to be
Speaker 1: a nobody wants to have had their name attached to this.
Speaker 1: Jack Smith is cooked. That woman in Atlanta is cooked
Speaker 1: for her own actions, and likely there's gonna be ton
Speaker 1: of fallout in New York going forward. We're just not
Speaker 1: to that election cycle yet, all right. Eight eight eight
Speaker 1: nine three four seven eight seven four. Next question, which
Speaker 1: one of you lunatics is shooting at cars on I
Speaker 1: forty and why is this not a bigger story? Do
Speaker 1: you remember I didn't live in North Carolin, I didn't
Speaker 1: live on the East Coast at the time this happened,
Speaker 1: and I remember being absolutely glued to the Beltway sniper stuff.
Speaker 1: Do you remember how insane that story was? And then
Speaker 1: when he found out that they had modified a vehicle
Speaker 1: so they could put a sniper's nest into the trunk there,
Speaker 1: and one of them was like a father figure to
Speaker 1: this kid. And people were getting killed. In fact, I
Speaker 1: in Spotsylvania. At Spotsylvania, I only know this because I
Speaker 1: drove through there. They had a memorial literally at the
Speaker 1: by where the gas station where that woman was shot,
Speaker 1: and I was it was really eerie see that out there.
Speaker 1: It just reminded me of following that whole story. Now,
Speaker 1: are we at that level? No, But a woman got
Speaker 1: shot in the leg. A woman got shot in the leg,
Speaker 1: had to go to the hospital, and several other vehicles
Speaker 1: have been shot and it's not just in one place.
Speaker 1: So we will we will touch on that just so
Speaker 1: we're a little better informed, and we'll do that. Plus, yeah, unfortunately,
Speaker 1: you're gonna get subjected to lots more Moonbat audio two.
Speaker 1: So lots to get to phone number eight eight eight
Speaker 1: nine three four seven eight seven four. We will get
Speaker 1: to all of that. What was the other audio that
Speaker 1: we oh, yes, the the tank Uger or however you
Speaker 1: say his name, yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, we'll bring
Speaker 1: the crazy hang on new media versus old media, because
Speaker 1: this is his wheelhouse and in what we talked about
Speaker 1: with the with the bros doing the social media and
Speaker 1: the podcast running through Barren and stuff. So we'll get
Speaker 1: into that. We'll chat with Stephen Kent coming up here
Speaker 1: in just a few minutes. All right, I got to
Speaker 1: put this out six. The number is six. I want
Speaker 1: to make sure the correct number in front of me.
Speaker 1: Police and Raleigh are investigating after six reports of cars
Speaker 1: being shot at on I forty this week, and it
Speaker 1: runs the gamut. I think from a westerly standpoint, I think, yeah,
Speaker 1: it was Chapel Hill Road and I want to say
Speaker 1: down and they had one off Buck Jones right there too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so they're not all in the same place as the
Speaker 1: point that I'm making. Please, are investigating the string of
Speaker 1: shootings multiple cars hit by gunfire near Chapel Hill Road,
Speaker 1: days after getting similar reports of cars being shot at
Speaker 1: on Monday near Buck Jones and Gorman.
Speaker 2: I'm trying for.
Speaker 1: How far like do they think they are shooting from
Speaker 1: just a couple different places, and they're just cause they
Speaker 1: did hit a woman, shot her in the leg. She
Speaker 1: had to go to the hospital. Thankfully, no one was killed.
Speaker 1: Nobody's been killed yet. Police believe it was a handgun too.
Speaker 1: That's what's even crazier, right, You know, every foot you
Speaker 1: add to that distance, you get remarkably less accurate. So
Speaker 1: how close to the roadway do police believe that whoever
Speaker 1: this is is shooting? Do they think they're shooting out
Speaker 1: of cars? I don't know. Police say they have extra
Speaker 1: patrols along the stretch of I forty. This is a
Speaker 1: This is a big deal, man. If some if a
Speaker 1: woman got shot in the legs, she just could have
Speaker 1: as easily got shot in the head with the probably
Speaker 1: the level of being able to aim unless they're using
Speaker 1: like something like a Thompson can tender or something. But no,
Speaker 1: because they're basing on the rounds and the Thompson's aren't necked.
Speaker 1: So I don't know, man, But that's that's a pretty
Speaker 1: and God help us, has anything to do with politics,
Speaker 1: just to put us into a tailspin on stuff. Speaking
Speaker 1: of tailspin, let me respond real quickly. We ross and
Speaker 1: has had this big discussion about doom loops. If you
Speaker 1: haven't been listening, and basically the you know, the the
Speaker 1: people on the TikTok crying have been are are unable
Speaker 1: to realize that they're being lied to. They're not being
Speaker 1: lied to necessarily about what they may think, and they
Speaker 1: can have political positions all across the spectrum, but they're
Speaker 1: being lied to about the literally, he's literally Hitler and
Speaker 1: it's and we can prove this because Kamala conceded yesterday.
Speaker 1: And I don't feel like I would concede to Hitler
Speaker 1: if I honestly believe that. So uh, and so he wrote, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've heard you talk about Josh Stein. What about that?
Speaker 1: Find me the audio where I said anything about Josh
Speaker 1: Stein setting up in tournament camps. Okay, find me the
Speaker 1: audio where I've said anything other than my beef with
Speaker 1: Josh Stein is he's he's essentially gonna he's he's gonna
Speaker 1: turn into political beasts. He probably already is. That is
Speaker 1: Roy Cooper beholden to the National Party. And I think
Speaker 1: he's been very sneaky with the stuff he and Mark
Speaker 1: Elias tried to do in the way that he went
Speaker 1: about winning that election by lying, lying, not talk to
Speaker 1: the courts. That's what the courts say about his opponent
Speaker 1: from the Triad. That's what I said, you know why,
Speaker 1: because it would be insane to sit there Josh Stein,
Speaker 1: no matter what he does, and some of it you
Speaker 1: may label is evil horrible. If you don't like his politics,
Speaker 1: you may love it. The state of North Carolina is
Speaker 1: not going to cease to exist. Okay, it's not gonna
Speaker 1: He's not. It's not gonna turn into a military state
Speaker 1: break away from the US. And I'm the rule, like,
Speaker 1: stop it if you're going, if you're going to do this,
Speaker 1: you can talk about some of the things, and a
Speaker 1: lot of times you can talk about it based on
Speaker 1: what they themselves have talked about and say, I'm this
Speaker 1: is what I'm opposed to, but that there's a difference
Speaker 1: between my criticism of Josh Stein and literally causing people
Speaker 1: to sit here and film weepy tiktoks because they think
Speaker 1: Hitler just got elected. So no, I reject, I rejected.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't put that out there now. Senator Slenderman. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: he will continue to haunt your child's dreams, snatching their
Speaker 1: souls for the benefit of Moloch and beesel Bub. That's
Speaker 1: we know that, right Ross, we're one hundred percent rights.
Speaker 1: That's his plan. But Josh Stein, No, he's just gonna
Speaker 1: come in and be Weasley or maybe not. And when
Speaker 1: he's not I will tell you. I think he's not,
Speaker 1: but I think he will. And if he starts, the
Speaker 1: whole stuff will cover it. Okay what we do around here.
Speaker 1: So uh yeah, Raleigh Pete. I'm hoping that they have
Speaker 1: some sort of I want to know a lot more.
Speaker 1: In fact, I'm gonna text some people I know here
Speaker 1: we go and then they they they touch they touched on.
Speaker 1: In the ral story, Suzanne Kennedy, a former reporter from DC,
Speaker 1: said drivers may feel a fear similar to O two.
Speaker 1: That was the DC sniper ten people. I forgot it
Speaker 1: was ten. I thought it was eight. Ten people. You
Speaker 1: don't know who they're targeting. Is it random? Was an
Speaker 1: overpass side of the road Frontage Road? Yeah, I'd like
Speaker 1: to know more. And that's almost for a lot of
Speaker 1: you listening that that section of road is unavoidable, right
Speaker 1: because you live down and live in Apex, or you
Speaker 1: live down in Holly Springs, or you live down towards
Speaker 1: Chatham County, and that's how you get in and out
Speaker 1: of where you go to work. So that's the part.
Speaker 1: It's the not knowing that I think really bristles folks
Speaker 1: on this front. All right, let's get back into the audio,
Speaker 1: and then we got weather coming up, so and then
Speaker 1: Stephen Kent obviously he'll join us in the next hour.
Speaker 1: So I mentioned the view. We talked about the view yesterday.
Speaker 1: I played a couple of cuts. But let's get a
Speaker 1: little deeper into really where their mindset's at. And you
Speaker 1: have to understand if you can't see it from the
Speaker 1: moment they came on the air, this moment, how you
Speaker 1: feeling love start will be Goldberg looked like she'd been
Speaker 1: crying for ten hours. She looked like she had a
Speaker 1: rough cry going into this thing. So he kind of
Speaker 1: knew where it was going to go on and at
Speaker 1: first it was reasonable ish, but that didn't last.
Speaker 9: It is a moment to listen to the voters. And
Speaker 9: this I have to say. I've always thought he could win.
Speaker 9: I thought in the final stretch she might eke it out.
Speaker 9: I didn't expect it to be this resounding, and I
Speaker 9: think there are some lessons from it. I think we
Speaker 9: forget about rural America. I think the working class feels
Speaker 9: left behind. They feel like the powerful, the elite only
Speaker 9: care about them and their power. And he spoke to them.
Speaker 9: We may not have liked his words, but they turned
Speaker 9: out for him. I mean, the map was it was
Speaker 9: beyond Reagan what we saw last night, and I think
Speaker 9: we need to start listening more about the concerns of
Speaker 9: everyday Americans who feel like this system is fair.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right. And then Joey Bayhart. Now technically the
Speaker 1: last person to get as many electoral for Republicans was
Speaker 1: actually the eighty eight election, so that would have been
Speaker 1: Busch Senior.
Speaker 2: I think Behart was confused on the Reagan thing because
Speaker 2: I don't think she's talking about eighty four Reagan. I
Speaker 2: think she's talking about eighty Reagan.
Speaker 1: Okay, well in this year, like how did this happen? Part? Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: maybe I don't know, But the fact is that's reasonable
Speaker 1: discussion they're having right there. And then we played you
Speaker 1: the sunny Houston thing, and it just keeps compounding and
Speaker 1: think about this.
Speaker 10: She did this in too much, She did this in
Speaker 10: too much.
Speaker 1: She got her ass kicked in two months. How does
Speaker 1: that work? Okay?
Speaker 10: She you know, everybody can can always say, oh, she
Speaker 10: should have done this, she should have done this.
Speaker 1: She said, she did what she did.
Speaker 10: She was everywhere, she talked to everybody, and people didn't
Speaker 10: come out. I don't know why, and it doesn't even matter.
Speaker 1: He's now the president.
Speaker 10: I'm still not gonna say his name.
Speaker 1: Say yeah, okay, all right, I gotta beef with that.
Speaker 1: I call a senator slender man, so whatever.
Speaker 2: But I mean, the thing is she did not talk
Speaker 2: to everyone.
Speaker 1: Right, No, she did stuck to everyone on sn Remember you.
Speaker 2: Saw that guy in line. I can't remember where it
Speaker 2: was with state, but I know it was a swing state.
Speaker 2: I thing somewhere in the blue wall and they were like,
Speaker 2: why are you voting for for for Trump? And he's said, well,
Speaker 2: because he sat down with Joe Rogan and she didn't.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, okay, so one guy. But SNL I'm sure
Speaker 1: covered everything else, so we're we're fine.
Speaker 10: But these last several months, the polls have had everything
Speaker 10: neck and neck, but last night it was what happened
Speaker 10: to him?
Speaker 2: Who's neck dot.
Speaker 1: At the end of a campaign.
Speaker 11: I'm sick of poles too, And that's my job, right,
Speaker 11: you get overload. And look, what the polls were telling
Speaker 11: us is that this was a very divided country and
Speaker 11: it was going to be a close race. And I
Speaker 11: was telling people this and it didn't make sense even
Speaker 11: when I said it.
Speaker 1: Sometimes that are we I got to stop here?
Speaker 2: Are we allowed?
Speaker 1: Is this a close race? Does any is there anyone
Speaker 1: who believes now what does he have? Three twelve? Does
Speaker 1: anyone believe this is a close race? I would argue
Speaker 1: that this that we will not have races that are
Speaker 1: outsized by this probably in the near future.
Speaker 2: Didn't he win the popular vote by over five million people? Right?
Speaker 1: Yeah? H yeah, yeah yeah. Never And by the way,
Speaker 1: you remember how much they want to talk about the
Speaker 1: popular vote. Have you heard anyone talk about the popular
Speaker 1: vote since then?
Speaker 4: Right? So?
Speaker 1: Uh, I don't know that i'd call it close. So
Speaker 1: why do you think? Oh and by the way, they
Speaker 1: had to do this once again, ladies, I hope you're ready.
Speaker 7: So why do you think that uneducated white women voted
Speaker 7: against their reproductive health freedoms? And why do you think
Speaker 7: Latino men voted in favor of someone that's going to
Speaker 7: deport says he's going to deport the and like being
Speaker 7: called by the.
Speaker 1: Way, they're not deporting the majority of his community.
Speaker 2: They're not.
Speaker 1: There is not a there is not a zip code
Speaker 1: in a mamera. I shouldn't say there's not the there
Speaker 1: is not a populated zip code in America where the
Speaker 1: majority of people are here illegally, even with the numbers
Speaker 1: you saw, like where you know, we're like, oh we
Speaker 1: got thirty thousand in New York. I mean like it's
Speaker 1: it's not And if he's here legally, that's his community,
Speaker 1: you mean his race. Say what you mean?
Speaker 2: Please?
Speaker 9: Educated white women? I think the economy, security. But when
Speaker 9: you put people in these boxes, I think that's a
Speaker 9: takeaway from you.
Speaker 1: We have so not more with the uneducated white women,
Speaker 1: but the coudi graw, the coupdi gra comes your way
Speaker 1: in just a few minutes because I got to talk
Speaker 1: to Ray stage because I just looked at my clock
Speaker 1: and I'm very irresponsible with time.
Speaker 2: So wait for it.
Speaker 1: We got one more clip and it's it's the reason
Speaker 1: for the season. How are you doing, sir?
Speaker 12: I'm doing all right.
Speaker 1: How are you? Nothing's on fire?
Speaker 12: So like, oh, no, nothing on fire? That's good. Yeah,
Speaker 12: I think it's great.
Speaker 1: We got somebody. We have somebody who's sniper and drivers
Speaker 1: on I forty and shot leg and six other cars.
Speaker 1: So we're I guess we're doing the DC builtway sniper
Speaker 1: thing again.
Speaker 2: So there's that.
Speaker 12: Well, Luckily, the only fires are real fires since you
Speaker 12: did mention it California, believe it or not?
Speaker 1: Oh real, yeah, New Jersey.
Speaker 12: I mean these are real, like wildfire things, and it's
Speaker 12: all because of you know, the heat and the heat
Speaker 12: to the tune of a record yesterday and Raleigh. We
Speaker 12: figured we'd get there. We broke it. Eighty four degrees
Speaker 12: yesterday average tie.
Speaker 1: Was in the Triad. It was so comfortable. Was it
Speaker 1: that hot? And Raleigh the Triad was super comfortably.
Speaker 12: Yeah, seventy eight Yeah, Triad a little bit better. So
Speaker 12: not a record, But what do you think the average
Speaker 12: high temperature for this time of year.
Speaker 1: Is sixty five?
Speaker 12: Yeah?
Speaker 1: How'd you know?
Speaker 2: You peaked?
Speaker 1: That's exactly what it is. I'm a golfer. I know
Speaker 1: what the temperatures are going to be. It's given times, and.
Speaker 12: We're already there this morning. In some spots we're beyond
Speaker 12: seventy right now at RDU, at the airport at Iront
Speaker 12: Winston Salem at sixty four, so same temperature spread.
Speaker 2: Not much rain.
Speaker 12: Rat had a little bit Raleigh yesterday, not much if any,
Speaker 12: Triad and most of us not seeing much rain today.
Speaker 12: Maybe a shower, especially from about the triangle south and east.
Speaker 12: They had heavy rain of parts of Georgia and South
Speaker 12: Carolina yesterday. Luckily now that's even all moving away. Had
Speaker 12: some flash flutter emergencies, I think around Velt, somewhere somewhere
Speaker 12: down there in South Georgia. But the trend's going to
Speaker 12: be for a mild weather, slowly getting cooler, mid upper
Speaker 12: seventies today, with an early shower, fog thick in some
Speaker 12: spots once again. Tomorrow, maybe a shower most of the day,
Speaker 12: partly sunning in dry mid seventies. Saturday, we cool off
Speaker 12: a little bit more sunny, mid upper sixties on Sunday,
Speaker 12: mid upper sixties, maybe seventy degrees in spots that'll stay
Speaker 12: dry before showers are back for Veterans Day, but again
Speaker 12: not much in the way wet weather. Temperatures will stay
Speaker 12: at or above normal into the early and middle part
Speaker 12: of next week. And because you know me, Casey, I'm
Speaker 12: a winter weather enthusiast, cold weather lover, and I said, well,
Speaker 12: where the heck is all the Arctic air up in
Speaker 12: Greenland this morning forty plus below zero, So it's up there,
Speaker 12: But I'm going anywhere anytime soon, anyway, come on, bring it.
Speaker 12: So he's talking about is not this garbage.
Speaker 1: Now send it the York's a way. I don't want it.
Speaker 1: I guess she's Icelandic, but you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: All Right, we got it.
Speaker 1: We'll catch up, Okay in an hour. Appreciate it. There
Speaker 1: you go, Race day ic We'll come back and one
Speaker 1: more view clip. And I want you to remember, up
Speaker 1: until this point, all the view clips have had a theme.
Speaker 1: Right basically, it's the end is nigh all you know,
Speaker 1: the continuation. They're gonna be snatching people out of their
Speaker 1: communities and it's gonna go full big, big government, big dictatorship,
Speaker 1: big fascism. I want you to keep that in mind
Speaker 1: because that's what these women are predicting. And then I
Speaker 1: want you to listen to the clip I'm gonna play it.
Speaker 1: Will do it coming up next, coming up our inr Correspondent.
Speaker 1: But it's gonna have a little twist. Well one, we
Speaker 1: got more video game stuff to make fun of. That's
Speaker 1: gonna be there. We haven't talked about it on the
Speaker 1: air because Steven doesn't Stephen doesn't live in North Carolina,
Speaker 1: and he is he's outside of DC and he was
Speaker 1: a candidate actually in one of the municipal races up there.
Speaker 1: He did not win. I mean cam campaigning as a
Speaker 1: red guy in blue guy territory is outside DC. Probably
Speaker 1: not not a lot of w's there, that being said,
Speaker 1: because he was actively a candidate and equal time even
Speaker 1: though I don't know that would have attached where he lives.
Speaker 1: But we didn't get into it. But I do want
Speaker 1: to talk to him about it, and we're going to
Speaker 1: talk about, like I said, some of the other stuff
Speaker 1: having to do with just election, social media, cult to personality,
Speaker 1: you name it. But first I want to remind you
Speaker 1: that we just had all these view cuts and there
Speaker 1: was a lot of stuff said in there about how
Speaker 1: they still think it's going to go full fascist, all
Speaker 1: of that, and they're just terrified at the notion that
Speaker 1: somebody would operate in a dictatorial way. And if they
Speaker 1: just shut their mouth after that, we wouldn't have this.
Speaker 5: Finland, kids in nursery school are learning to discern between
Speaker 5: fake news and real news. They should be teaching that.
Speaker 5: In this country, teach chose to think critical.
Speaker 1: Yes, I agree, Wait, hold on, I agree with her.
Speaker 1: I think that learning teachings. A good educator teaches you
Speaker 1: to learn how to learn and how to want to
Speaker 1: learn and how to do things like think critically and
Speaker 1: evaluate and all. I'm one hundred percent maybe I was
Speaker 1: wrong if.
Speaker 9: We could regulate social media, because one of the biggest
Speaker 9: decisions is DC and Congress have not been able to
Speaker 9: do one thing in regard to the rogue corporation any
Speaker 9: better with.
Speaker 1: Long I know, I know, well Thursday, things we normally
Speaker 1: do with Stephen Kent who joins us, But it's going
Speaker 1: to have a slightly different feel. How you doing this morning,
Speaker 1: Steven chat doing well?
Speaker 3: Nice to be with you.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So before we get into the political and all
Speaker 1: of that analysis, I got to tell you, man, if
Speaker 1: only for the mental reprieve, I'm starting to appreciate all
Speaker 1: of the clips that are emerging of that Dragon Age
Speaker 1: video game we were talking about, including this new one where
Speaker 1: is that a dragon coming out to its dragon parents
Speaker 1: about it's what LGBT status? These are things in a
Speaker 1: video game people. In fact, here's a little taste. I
Speaker 1: didn't add any of this, by the way, Okay, I
Speaker 1: just want to be bunantly clear. This is the Seinfeld study.
Speaker 1: I didn't add any of thistles.
Speaker 4: Thank you. So I'm non binary?
Speaker 1: What does that mean? It means I don't feel like
Speaker 1: a man or a woman.
Speaker 5: If you are neither a man nor a woman, then
Speaker 5: what are you?
Speaker 12: Non binary?
Speaker 1: I'm not going to play the whole thing. How much
Speaker 1: of this do you think informed this election?
Speaker 3: This election is a cry for normalcy. Normal is a
Speaker 3: thing that exists. And Americans, particularly young men, Latinos, black voters,
Speaker 3: are just dying for an America where we don't have
Speaker 3: to wring our hands over what boys and girls are
Speaker 3: you know, whether or not criminals should be behind bars,
Speaker 3: whether you know they should be roaming the streets. People
Speaker 3: just really want politics to return to a pre COVID
Speaker 3: or maybe let's just even say a nineteen nineties sense
Speaker 3: of normal. I mean, this kind of insanity here has
Speaker 3: just been tearing up the left. It's made them incredibly
Speaker 3: ineffective at talking to working people, which is one reason
Speaker 3: why I think Bernie Sanders was actually on Instagram putting
Speaker 3: out his statement about the election the other day.
Speaker 1: Yeah I saw it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 1: The working men and Norman he said he's not wrong.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he returned to rhetoric of economic justice
Speaker 3: instead of social justice, talking about how the Democratic Party
Speaker 3: no longer cares about the interest of working people, and
Speaker 3: those interests are we don't want to run into pronoun
Speaker 3: and speech and gender police. We just want to go
Speaker 3: to work, go home, have a beer, go to bed,
Speaker 3: and watch seinfilm.
Speaker 1: It's well work. Something else I never really got into
Speaker 1: seinfilm is that weird. Everyone says that's weird, but that's okay.
Speaker 1: And so one of the things that people will see
Speaker 1: is they go to social media and look, it feels
Speaker 1: good if you win. So if you're a Trump voter,
Speaker 1: you probably feel pretty good right now. And it's really
Speaker 1: easy to allow yourself to just binge things like one hundred.
Speaker 13: And sixty six, I'm physically going to be ill, two
Speaker 13: hundred and sixty six. What in the Alice in Wonderland
Speaker 13: nightmares is going on right now?
Speaker 1: I have dozens of these. The need to go on
Speaker 1: TikTok and cry is strong. But here's the thing we
Speaker 1: were talking about earlier during the show. It's you're in
Speaker 1: a what's called a doom loop is the word the
Speaker 1: term are using, and it's you have instilled a psychological
Speaker 1: condition into your base because even the absence of all
Speaker 1: the horrible things you're saying is now going to happen,
Speaker 1: will never convince them they're not, because you just spent
Speaker 1: the entire election going that dude's literally Hitler, and then
Speaker 1: the person you thought was going to save you from
Speaker 1: Hitler conceded to Hitler yesterday. So how do we find
Speaker 1: ourselves getting out of this? Because that woman right there
Speaker 1: and this right here, that, and it's all white, young
Speaker 1: white women. They're convinced. What happened there? Okay, well that
Speaker 1: was weird. What happened is do they get them? Roz?
Speaker 1: Have the riots in DC started?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: That's yeah, okay, I was I didn't know if the
Speaker 1: riots in the DC area started. You got swept up
Speaker 1: in that already. So anyway, no, no.
Speaker 2: Too much market safe?
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, that woman's a victim too. Those women making
Speaker 1: those are victims. They're being lied to and they have,
Speaker 1: but they're being lied to in big, bold ways. Did
Speaker 1: you hear the insane commercial that came out last week
Speaker 1: about how Elon and Vance are going to transition themselves
Speaker 1: into immortal AI super beans concentration?
Speaker 3: Doesn't that doesn't seem like something that would would resonate
Speaker 3: on Main Street. But you know, you asked me, like,
Speaker 3: how do we get back to normal here? My my
Speaker 3: main thesis here has been that this election has sort
Speaker 3: of the media has asked people to believe one of
Speaker 3: two things. That America is suddenly in the grips of
Speaker 3: some newfangled neo Nazi ideology, where all of your neighbors
Speaker 3: and people who you grew up with are suddenly really
Speaker 3: into fascism, including Jewish, Black, and Latino voters and the
Speaker 3: majority of people on your street, or they are lying
Speaker 3: to you a and the news media, who we always
Speaker 3: have known is out of touch, insular, overly educated to
Speaker 3: their own detriment, and populated by incredibly wealthy ideologues, that
Speaker 3: they are dividing people for profit, that they are not
Speaker 3: able to see their fellow Americans as neighbors, friends, and
Speaker 3: people who are just seeking quiet and normalcy. I think
Speaker 3: that that is the thing that is true. This entire
Speaker 3: election has been a demonstration that they are trying to
Speaker 3: divide people for their own monetary gain. Because America is
Speaker 3: not overtaken by fascism. We are crying out for side
Speaker 3: semblance of normal life.
Speaker 1: You know what I did yesterday? I talked on the
Speaker 1: show I wanted It was the end of the day.
Speaker 1: I wanted nothing more than a beer somebody eat and
Speaker 1: to be left alone, right, not left alone per se,
Speaker 1: but you know, away from the political frame. I intentionally
Speaker 1: drove like fifteen miles out in the middle of note
Speaker 1: well not quite the nowhere, but you know, in that direction,
Speaker 1: I want to see farm fields to seek out a
Speaker 1: watering hole that was cash only. You know the types
Speaker 1: of places I'm talking about. There's some dudes shooting because
Speaker 1: they just got off construction, and you know what that
Speaker 1: was me seeking normal mission accomplished by the way yesterday.
Speaker 1: So I a thousand percent agree with you.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 3: Yep, that's all it takes. Sometimes, yeah, yeah, hey, and
Speaker 3: a little I like to play pool, man, what are
Speaker 3: you gonna do?
Speaker 1: So let me There's three things I saw on Twitter
Speaker 1: I want to run by you. One it was talking
Speaker 1: about Alex bruce Witz. Bruce Witz, I probably can't pronounce
Speaker 1: his name correctly, but he's a young guy. I've seen
Speaker 1: him on Twitter. I follow him on Twitter. And he
Speaker 1: was essentially tasked with the maximized Men Retain Women strategy.
Speaker 1: And that's the words from the Trump campaign and what
Speaker 1: it was. And we saw this was an embracing of podcasts,
Speaker 1: an embracing of going back to Twitter, which I'd never
Speaker 1: unders why Trump didn't immediately jump back on. Obviously he
Speaker 1: had his own company, and I think that played into it.
Speaker 1: But when him and Elon Buddy Buddy, then he did
Speaker 1: and they talked about how they laid it at the
Speaker 1: feet of this twenty seven year old who came up
Speaker 1: with all right, here's the podcast. Heres what we're going
Speaker 1: to do. And he calls Trump and says, hey, I
Speaker 1: got you. Listen. Trump stops him and goes give the
Speaker 1: list to Baron because Baron's a podcast junkie and so,
Speaker 1: and it shows that Trump that's who Trump trusts his family,
Speaker 1: and Baron picked those. It was overwhelmingly successful. The numbers
Speaker 1: on the groups they were targeting were clearly up. So
Speaker 1: you couple that that we then find out the Trump
Speaker 1: war Room Twitter accounts was four dudes on Zen as
Speaker 1: I think Ross put it earlier, and Kamala Harris had
Speaker 1: dozens of people during their social media These four dudes
Speaker 1: killed them. In all the metrics, engagement, you name it, everything.
Speaker 1: Is it just how people how the quote unquote two
Speaker 1: sides utilize social media? Or is that was that just
Speaker 1: a good old fashioned butt whooping.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's a good old fashioned butt whooping. But
Speaker 3: you can imagine a Kamala Harris war room where they're
Speaker 3: making TikTok content with one hundred people and having to
Speaker 3: run it through every possible committee to make sure that
Speaker 3: the message is right. The sensitivity is spot on, that
Speaker 3: nobody has ever offended, that every group is respected. And
Speaker 3: then you've got just four bros hopped up on zen
Speaker 3: and black coffee. Who are you know what you would
Speaker 3: just say? Crap posting online? I mean, that's going to
Speaker 3: be funnier, it's going to be more authentic. And you know,
Speaker 3: Baron really did kind of save the day with gaining
Speaker 3: Trump ten percent of the male vote and particularly people
Speaker 3: under forty. He got him on Logan, Paul Theo, Vaughn,
Speaker 3: Joe Rogan. These are the kind of shows that make
Speaker 3: a person gosh. His first debut online was on the
Speaker 3: Aiden Ross livestream show.
Speaker 1: That was a little nervous on that. Aiden Ross's well, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean that's.
Speaker 3: A little you know, it's a little little sharp edged there,
Speaker 3: but you know, this is the kind of thing that
Speaker 3: actually makes games. Meanwhile, Kamala Harris is appearing on the
Speaker 3: Cold Open of SNL to an audience of retirees and
Speaker 3: and board people who already are voting Democrat. I mean,
Speaker 3: what on earth was she thinking? Joe Rogan in a
Speaker 3: single episode makes four times the views of Fox Prime Time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know it's it's these aren't hidden numbers. These
Speaker 1: aren't hidden numbers. These are everybody. Everybody has access to.
Speaker 1: Everybody knows it. So you have to then convince yourself
Speaker 1: in spite of those numbers, you're making the right decision.
Speaker 1: And I don't know how you get there. Maybe it's
Speaker 1: just because of the business I'm in. You know, numbers matter,
Speaker 1: number numbers. In the private sector, numbers matter. We have
Speaker 1: to have ratings and we have to sell ads, and
Speaker 1: if we don't do either of those things, I probably
Speaker 1: don't work here anymore. So I understand that. But here's
Speaker 1: where I want to pivot. For the last few minutes,
Speaker 1: I said there were three things. One was the war room,
Speaker 1: the other was the podcast, and the third thing is
Speaker 1: and we didn't get into this. You ran for office
Speaker 1: in the DC area. How did that go? I mean,
Speaker 1: just the whole thing, not just the result, but the
Speaker 1: whole thing.
Speaker 2: Man, what an.
Speaker 3: Experience, tragic defeat. Yeah, I live in Manassas, right outside
Speaker 3: of d C, pretty deep blue DC suburb. It used
Speaker 3: to be a red district, a red town, just you know,
Speaker 3: fifteen years ago. But you know, immigration has really changed
Speaker 3: this area, as well as the growth of the federal government.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I ran for city councilor here. I lost
Speaker 3: in a red wave, which you know, kind of stings,
Speaker 3: but so did everybody else. You just can't win here.
Speaker 3: If you think that markets should be free and you
Speaker 3: shouldn't have to post your pronouns on LinkedIn.
Speaker 1: Oh well that's that's but anything. You never ran a campaign,
Speaker 1: have you, No?
Speaker 3: This was my first time, and it was a very
Speaker 3: videocentric campaign. I was cutting a lot of ads from
Speaker 3: home and using sort of my millennial skills behind the
Speaker 3: computer to make better content than everyone else. It made
Speaker 3: me pretty competitive. It was really cool. Folks around this
Speaker 3: sort of small town had never seen campaigning like that.
Speaker 3: It didn't didn't win the day, but it was It
Speaker 3: was fun.
Speaker 1: Did but was it? And this is what I wanted
Speaker 1: to compare and contrast. Was your opponents out there saying
Speaker 1: you're literally hitler? Or was it just people who had
Speaker 1: very different ideas on how the city should operate? And
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, you would still get
Speaker 1: a beer with them. I mean, what's the takeaway there?
Speaker 3: You know, it was it was pretty contentious here where
Speaker 3: you kind of like never said the name of your opponents,
Speaker 3: like we don't speak their names, as if they don't exist.
Speaker 3: But you know, basically, you know, our opponents in this
Speaker 3: election were running on the idea that we were going
Speaker 3: to defund public schools. Even no one.
Speaker 1: Why would you do that? Why'd you want to do that?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was interesting. It just kind of came out
Speaker 3: of nowhere, but that was their their main message. The
Speaker 3: teachers' unions got involved here pretty heavily, so that was
Speaker 3: that was the main thing. But you know, their effort
Speaker 3: was to try to tie us to Trump because in
Speaker 3: my city, Trump will always lose by at least ten
Speaker 3: to twelve percentage points, even during a red wave where
Speaker 3: he wins the whole country. So their effort was to
Speaker 3: try to tie us to him at every turn. And
Speaker 3: you know, I wouldn't say it worked necessarily, but you
Speaker 3: just you just can't close that gap here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's Oh and by the way, did you see
Speaker 1: what happened right before Commy came out to do her
Speaker 1: concession speech yesterday.
Speaker 3: Did Cardi b come back out and dance for everybody?
Speaker 1: No, A squirrel ran across the stage.
Speaker 3: The ghost of mean right, Yes he is written.
Speaker 1: But I want I want to point out that is
Speaker 1: and this is near your house. You should go get this.
Speaker 1: That is the bravest squirrel ever, right, because you just
Speaker 1: ran through a crowd of one thousand people who were
Speaker 1: cool with having a needle stuck in your buddy last week, right,
Speaker 1: and you still had the audacity to streak the stage.
Speaker 3: You're gonna have to send me a video if there's
Speaker 3: evidence that's I'm Jerry.
Speaker 1: Where just type kamalas square the video. They got different
Speaker 1: angles of it. It's amazing. There might even be two squirrels.
Speaker 1: There's debate whether that one squirrel is the other squirrel
Speaker 1: that emerged or just the same one. But it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: You just you ran through. You ran through more door
Speaker 1: like to make a reference at Ross won't get like you.
Speaker 1: You ran headlong through that gate, bro, That's what that
Speaker 1: squirrel did. Yesterdair was so laugh I was die. I
Speaker 1: was waiting for it to start. I was literally had
Speaker 1: it on TV in front of me, and then the
Speaker 1: squirrel runs through. All right, last question, and unfortunately this
Speaker 1: might be more impactful for you. We got two minutes.
Speaker 1: Do we do the thing again where we're burning hard
Speaker 1: working immigr and limousines to make points within a week
Speaker 1: of the election or the inauguration or do you think
Speaker 1: people go, well, you know, that didn't work out so
Speaker 1: great last time. Let's maybe not do that and not
Speaker 1: have the big gatherings that lunatics will then gravity onto
Speaker 1: to do the things that they want to do, these
Speaker 1: criminal acts. Or are are they just waiting till the weekend?
Speaker 1: What do you think?
Speaker 3: Oh man, that's a tough that's a tough question. I
Speaker 3: think as we grind towards January, tensions will get hot again.
Speaker 3: I think we're sort of in a cool off period
Speaker 3: where everybody is, you know, bottling their tears from the election,
Speaker 3: But I think tempers are going to flare by January,
Speaker 3: and I hope it's not too destructive.
Speaker 1: Have you been on TikTok? They're not bottling Well, maybe
Speaker 1: they're actually physically bottling them, but yeah, it's it's I
Speaker 1: don't want it, and obviously and I wouldn't want it
Speaker 1: in any other fashion, but I am hopeful that it
Speaker 1: retains this war of words aspect to what's going on on.
Speaker 1: And that story you remember that, right, that was with
Speaker 1: the Women's March. They burned. This guy immigrated from a
Speaker 1: country or he could have never got into business for
Speaker 1: himself buying a limo, because the organized crime wouldn't let him.
Speaker 1: So he moves to the USA the right way, legally
Speaker 1: buys a limo. It's everything he owns, and they torch
Speaker 1: it because of what it represents. And that's when we're
Speaker 1: at our lowest in this country. And and I hope
Speaker 1: we don't see a repeat. All right, Steven, sorry about
Speaker 1: your election. Appreciate it that you're coming on. And uh yeah,
Speaker 1: go watch the squirrel thing. It's it's it's really funny. Actually,
Speaker 1: so week man, Oh are you all right? He's multitasking?
Speaker 1: All right, you have a go on man? All right,
Speaker 1: there you go. Yeah, So squirrel thing, dude, I was everyone.
Speaker 1: There was like three other people watching when we start laughing,
Speaker 1: oh and everyone simultaneous ghost to Peanut. So we'll be
Speaker 1: back hanging on so much sound I want to get
Speaker 1: into with you. So we talked about the view stuff.
Speaker 1: We played some of you know, you may not.
Speaker 2: You do we check Wake Up a Boy.
Speaker 1: And and the theme of the show has been yes,
Speaker 1: I understand that that could feel a little good, and
Speaker 1: it's mostly because of the condescension that tends to take place,
Speaker 1: you know, but in politics these days, so once somebody
Speaker 1: has slided you in that way, you feel pretty good.
Speaker 1: When the tables get turned. It's is it christ like?
Speaker 1: Probably not. I know that's a word that all of
Speaker 1: a sudden the media want to embrace in the closing
Speaker 1: days of this election, which again is not close. In fact,
Speaker 1: this is your homework for today. If at any point
Speaker 1: you're engaging, I don't go out and try to engage
Speaker 1: if you you know, if you don't have to, right,
Speaker 1: But if you are engaged with somebody who wants to
Speaker 1: paint this election close, politely reject that concept. There is
Speaker 1: no metric where this was close, none, especially not in
Speaker 1: the modern era. There's no metric by which this was close.
Speaker 1: And remember a lot of these people are gonna be
Speaker 1: talking to are the same ones who told you in
Speaker 1: twenty twenty that Joe Biden had overwhelming and a what
Speaker 1: was it? He had a mandate?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: They love you as in that where he had a
Speaker 1: mandate because it was so overwhelming support for him that
Speaker 1: margin fits comfortably multiple times in some instances within what
Speaker 1: you just saw, So reject it. Reject it using their
Speaker 1: own standards. It can't be. It can't because it's you
Speaker 1: got to rip the whole band aid off and pretending
Speaker 1: like they eked it out. Then pretends that you know,
Speaker 1: maybe Shenanigans did it, or maybe there was manipulation or
Speaker 1: any of the rest. And if you are somebody who
Speaker 1: has rejected that notion and you didn't like it when
Speaker 1: Trump did it, that's how you pull away. But if not,
Speaker 1: prepare to be the people who see stuff like.
Speaker 13: This weren't always like this.
Speaker 1: And believe it and understand that this is what's causing
Speaker 1: that this is inflicting mental anguish on people. It's cruel, man,
Speaker 1: you didn't hear this, sad.
Speaker 13: Listen, beautiful life, the best parties. I like parties, the
Speaker 13: most beautiful friends. We thought it was just another election,
Speaker 13: so a lot of us didn't vote. Why bother everyone
Speaker 13: knew the system was rigged. Many of us even voted
Speaker 13: for them. I know it sounds crazy now, but we
Speaker 13: didn't like Democrats back then. We were angry about the vaccine, mangines,
Speaker 13: and how they handle the war and gauze, and the
Speaker 13: way they wanted to censor free speech on the internet.
Speaker 1: They want on a question, Well, we just played the
Speaker 1: view wanting to do that obedience.
Speaker 13: So what did we end up doing. We voted for
Speaker 13: the guys who openly said they wanted to imprison dissenters
Speaker 13: and use the military against their political opponents.
Speaker 2: So, yeah, you were.
Speaker 13: Wrong on that big time. When Trump got sick and died,
Speaker 13: Vance was thirty nine years old when he became president.
Speaker 13: Thirty years later, he's still president today, and with the
Speaker 13: Supreme Court on his side, they gave him dictatorial powers.
Speaker 13: They took away women's reproductive rights, outlawed contraception, and removed
Speaker 13: the minimum wage. Then we had repression of dissent ai
Speaker 13: surveillance of everything we did or said on a level
Speaker 13: we couldn't imagine the government. Advance, Peter tele and Elon
Speaker 13: Musk set up concentration camps for illegal immigrants, then legal immigrants,
Speaker 13: than even homeless people. They finally admitted climate change was real,
Speaker 13: but it was too late. Florida sank into the Gulf
Speaker 13: and the West burned, and cities across the country became
Speaker 13: unensurable then uninhabitable. Musk and Teal poured all of our
Speaker 13: resources into artificial intelligence so they and their friends could
Speaker 13: become immortal. I don't know what happened to them, but
Speaker 13: I know what happened to us.
Speaker 7: We made that.
Speaker 1: So yeah, those intersects so nicely. Just to recap, that's
Speaker 1: first time you've heard that. That was an actual spot.
Speaker 1: And the story is that Van Trump dies, he's out,
Speaker 1: Vance and Elon do all the stuff from the Atwood
Speaker 1: novel and then become immortal AI super beans to run
Speaker 1: concentration camps. Which we look at that and we're like,
Speaker 1: we laugh. You know, it's a dark laugh, but we
Speaker 1: laugh when we hear that. But people believe that, or
Speaker 1: believe aspects of that, maybe not the mortal A maybe
Speaker 1: they do.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: So if there's a lesson on today's show, it's it
Speaker 1: because you have an alternative. You can be someone who
Speaker 1: is clearly on the left, but as willing to attempt
Speaker 1: to process what happened, and they exist out there.
Speaker 12: I do want to very quickly.
Speaker 3: Send a quick message to all the pollsters, the election posters.
Speaker 1: John Stewart, I don't.
Speaker 6: Ever want to from you again, I don't.
Speaker 3: Ever want to hear we've corrected to the over connection
Speaker 3: you don't know about.
Speaker 2: I mean, is he wrong?
Speaker 1: No, as we highlighted yesterday, with a few exceptions who
Speaker 1: were very much on were within the margins.
Speaker 2: It was out.
Speaker 1: It was so outside. Remember that Iowa poll at the end,
Speaker 1: Remember that thing that didn't manifest. And so you have
Speaker 1: to be able to critically think it. Imagine, imagine today
Speaker 1: when they are trying to figure out who won the
Speaker 1: Senate race up there in Pennsylvania. Anyone who is even
Speaker 1: remotely intellectually honest realizes that Kamala's decision to take walls,
Speaker 1: not the Jewish guy, which was clearly an objection that
Speaker 1: they factored in. They may not have Trump may still
Speaker 1: have won that state. Maybe not, though Shapiro's very popular,
Speaker 1: but it now cost you the Senate too, or at
Speaker 1: least another Senate vote. It looks like they have fifty two,
Speaker 1: but maybe more. We still got races that they're counting
Speaker 1: all those decisions are You have to be honest enough
Speaker 1: to go, what the hell are they doing? What is
Speaker 1: going on here? You know how many Republicans have sent
Speaker 1: me emails over the last few days talking about their
Speaker 1: appreciation for what the National Party was doing, but they
Speaker 1: felt that they were underwhelmed, either by county parties or
Speaker 1: state parties. I don't know every circumstance, but I know
Speaker 1: that those are people, even after a victory, who are
Speaker 1: willing to attempt to understand whether they thought that the
Speaker 1: folks they thought were on their side pulled their weight.
Speaker 1: And it doesn't have to be contentious. You could do
Speaker 1: it in the same way that you go, all right,
Speaker 1: what could we have done differently? But you have to
Speaker 1: be able to do it. He's Democratic leaders. This is
Speaker 1: young Turks guy sank Gugar, who is an absolute lunatic.
Speaker 1: Almost every time we play audio from.
Speaker 8: Him's Democratic leaders are simpletons. They're servants of the donor class.
Speaker 8: So they go in They're.
Speaker 1: Like, oh, donor, give me mighty please.
Speaker 8: And I hear I made an ad, I'm Kamala Harris,
Speaker 8: I'm full of joy. Okay, what did I get you?
Speaker 8: And they know, Jake, You're too angry, too angry?
Speaker 3: What you think?
Speaker 8: Does Donald Trump look like he's kind?
Speaker 1: Does he look like he's in a good mood?
Speaker 8: I mean no. People want some sort of reaction from
Speaker 8: their politicians. They want them, to represent them, to.
Speaker 1: Fight for them. But that has never occurred to a.
Speaker 8: Democrat outside of Bernie Sanders, and probably we never will.
Speaker 8: So we had Look, there's no I'm not I have
Speaker 8: no interest in listening to a single Democratic politician ever.
Speaker 1: Again.
Speaker 8: They can go kiss my ass. They can do whatever
Speaker 8: they want, and we never listen.
Speaker 1: To them anyway.
Speaker 8: And they hate us because we're right and they're wrong.
Speaker 8: They're always wrong, and they hate us for being right. Okay,
Speaker 8: so but they're not gonna learn. You have to beat
Speaker 8: them in a primary. That's your only hope.
Speaker 1: And let's let's let's talk about a couple of those
Speaker 1: things and the inability to meet you wrong. So yesterday
Speaker 1: the spokeswoman for the Walls Harris Walls campaigner name is
Speaker 1: Lauren hit sent out a message a template, really sent
Speaker 1: a message that included a template for people within the
Speaker 1: campaign so they could engage, so that they could engage with,
Speaker 1: you know, people who might have questions like, dah, what happened?
Speaker 1: What happened? This is literally the template. Hey, thank you
Speaker 1: so much for everything you did. Can I buy you
Speaker 1: a drink? Can I help you move? No need to
Speaker 1: respond right now, just want you to know I'm thinking
Speaker 1: of you, and then in ast to say, do not
Speaker 1: ask what happened? It's not the day and neither is Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1: What a weird thing to send out, But absolutely what
Speaker 1: am I even supposed to make of that? The blame
Speaker 1: game has begun ross They figured they have figured out
Speaker 1: why Kamala's campaign was unsuccessful this morning just looking over
Speaker 1: some of the op eds. Why why do you think
Speaker 1: it was unsuccessful? They actually identified the problem. If you
Speaker 1: had to guess, I.
Speaker 2: Would say because she was part of she was the
Speaker 2: Harris and the Biden Harris administration in the last three
Speaker 2: and a half four years have been awful.
Speaker 1: Joe Biden Joe Biden's fault, Well, I.
Speaker 2: Mean that's sort of it.
Speaker 1: It's so kind of but not in the way that
Speaker 1: they think. Basically, they felt that he didn't make enough
Speaker 1: effort to pass the torch, so they're gonna they're literally, dude,
Speaker 1: I don't feel sorry for politicians. I'm starting to feel
Speaker 1: bad for Biden a little. You know what it feels.
Speaker 1: It feels like a little elder abuse onus. Elder abuse.
Speaker 1: Do you know what I'm saying? I blame the guy
Speaker 1: can't remember if he did or didn't do the thing
Speaker 1: you're blaming him for. It's just low, man, it's just
Speaker 1: so low. But it's not the lowest now. No, we'll
Speaker 1: get to that in the final segment. First Ray Stagic
Speaker 1: from the weather Channel. He's here to bring you joy.
Speaker 2: Well, right, okay, Yeah, let's do it joyful.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 12: You're going east and east of ninety five, east and
Speaker 12: out toward the outer Bank. So that's where we do
Speaker 12: have some showers and some rain Elore County into areas
Speaker 12: as you had further east than that, looks like Richland's,
Speaker 12: Maysville and areas east some heavier showers, so just heads
Speaker 12: up if you are traveling toward the west, it looks
Speaker 12: a little bit better. There's a fog around too, but
Speaker 12: spotty showers at best, and up near eighty again today
Speaker 12: for the Triangle, a little bit core and the Tryad
Speaker 12: and the mid and upper seventies. Tomorrow it could be
Speaker 12: a shower, partly sunny otherwise and staying warm in the
Speaker 12: upper seventies. Weekend looks good with sun Saturday, we do
Speaker 12: cool it off to the mid sixties. Sunday mainly clouding
Speaker 12: in the mid upper sixties, maybe some showers as we
Speaker 12: look ahead toward Veterans Day in the morning, but back
Speaker 12: into the seventies. So Casey really not losing the cold
Speaker 12: or really not losing the warm air. The cold air
Speaker 12: is really none really to be found excepting the inner
Speaker 12: mountain West big storm going on, or parts of the
Speaker 12: mountains in the west. We'll see maybe a couple of
Speaker 12: feet of snowfall. And that's usually how it works as
Speaker 12: you get into the winter months. Where he got warm
Speaker 12: and wet someplace, you got cold and snowy somewhere else.
Speaker 12: And eventually it'll change, I think, and some of us
Speaker 12: might hope. But right now it stays mild, above average
Speaker 12: temperatures expected at least for the next seven days, maybe longer.
Speaker 1: All right, thank you, sir, appreciate it, and we'll come
Speaker 1: back with Jeff Bellinger next.
Speaker 6: Hang on, all good Casey and talks rallied big time yesterday.
Speaker 6: Investors will likely have something else to celebrate today. Economists
Speaker 6: expect the Federal Reserve to announce a quarter point interest
Speaker 6: rate cut when officials and their policy meeting. We'll find
Speaker 6: out at two o'clock this afternoon. Right now, the stock
Speaker 6: market futures are all higher right across the board. Employers
Speaker 6: have slowed the pace of hiring, but they're not doing
Speaker 6: a lot of job cutting. The number of workers signing
Speaker 6: up for unemployment benefits remains historically low. The Labor Department
Speaker 6: counted two hundred and twenty one thousand first time applications
Speaker 6: last week. The appliance and furniture retailer American Freight's going
Speaker 6: out of business. This is part of the recent bankruptcy
Speaker 6: filing by parent company Franchise Group. American Freight has three
Speaker 6: hundred seventy stores nationwide, closing sales getting underway today. American
Speaker 6: Freight has a dozen stores in North Carolina. There is
Speaker 6: one on Maitland Drive and Raleigh A Lift shares up
Speaker 6: twenty four percent in pre market trading. The right hailing
Speaker 6: company posted stronger than expected earnings for the latest quarter
Speaker 6: and issued bullish guidance for the full year. Warner Brothers
Speaker 6: Discovery added seven million streaming subscribers in the third quarter,
Speaker 6: but movie box office revenue was down from the prior
Speaker 6: third quarter. There was no Barbie Blockbuster this passed summer.
Speaker 6: Starbucks holiday menu is in stores today, and Casey Krispy
Speaker 6: Kreme has introduced a new Thanksgiving pies donut collection available
Speaker 6: for a limited time.
Speaker 1: On what I was. I was a second away from
Speaker 1: stopping at Krispy Kreme this morning? Could I drive drive
Speaker 1: right by one? Thanks, I'm so obsessed. All right, well,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go check that out. We'll see, we'll have
Speaker 1: a spy report and we'll talk to you later, sir.
Speaker 2: Okay, sounds good. Have a good day.
Speaker 1: All right, there you go, step elling and I don't know,
Speaker 1: I feel like I need to have one of those. Hey,
Speaker 1: I was just real quick. I was sitting here and
Speaker 1: I was listening on one of our newscasts and they
Speaker 1: were talking about all the big names people that are
Speaker 1: probably going to enter work at the Trump administration. Ross,
Speaker 1: I didn't hear your name, but I want to nominate
Speaker 1: you for the thumbs up thumbs down Coliseum.
Speaker 2: Dude, dude, I'd be good at that, you know, for.
Speaker 1: The camp, you know, for the for the Trump administration. Right,
Speaker 1: you just sit there thumbs up, thumbs down with whatever's
Speaker 1: going on, and uh, I'm sure everything will be perfectly
Speaker 1: on the up and up, and you.
Speaker 2: Know, i'd be more than fair. And the best part,
Speaker 2: but me having that job at the Colisseum would be
Speaker 2: I am impervious to bribery. What yeah, bribes, No, No.
Speaker 1: But if somebody was going to bribe you, what would
Speaker 1: be a way that they might try to do it.
Speaker 2: I don't know, like a og bogo or something. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Actually cheap right there compared to I thought an actual
Speaker 1: og location.
Speaker 2: But the grapes are fantastic.
Speaker 1: Oh at the palm fronds and the grapes all peeled up.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and it's just you know, just sitting there.
Speaker 1: So I think you'd be good with that. I was
Speaker 1: actually texting with somebody yesterday. I'm not going to tell
Speaker 1: you who it is because I didn't tell them I
Speaker 1: was going to say who it is, but they are
Speaker 1: they're very likely going to be ending up. They're from
Speaker 1: North Carolina, but they're going to be ending up working,
Speaker 1: probably in a White House position. And I texted them
Speaker 1: and I'm just like, hey, man, just so you know,
Speaker 1: if if this is in fact, we're you know, this
Speaker 1: is how your your career continues forward, and you and
Speaker 1: I find out you're working in the White House. Next
Speaker 1: time I'm up there, bro, I want the tour. I
Speaker 1: hear there's free cocaine, and then I realized, I'm like, man,
Speaker 1: I don't know if I should have texted that to
Speaker 1: this particular individual. Yeah, it might be too aggressive a joke,
Speaker 1: and he writes back something like, cocaine's not the weirdest
Speaker 1: thing in those cubbies, or we don't know what's in
Speaker 1: those cubbies. So and I thought, that's a good point.
