WEBVTT 1 00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:16.679 Get ready for yikes. May twenty nine, twenty twenty five. Allegedly, 2 00:00:16.679 --> 00:00:19.920 according to that thing we call a calendar, this is 3 00:00:20.039 --> 00:00:21.879 the show you were looking for. How do I know that? 4 00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:23.800 Because you found it and it's not that easy to 5 00:00:23.839 --> 00:00:27.559 find anymore. Anyway, here we are. I don't feel great, 6 00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:30.760 but I had to go live tonight because quite honestly, 7 00:00:30.839 --> 00:00:33.799 Tuesday I had no power, so I could not go 8 00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:36.880 live with anything. I was in the dark hair with 9 00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:40.960 a wind up flashlight and battery charge radio, just kind 10 00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:44.039 of chilling out and spent a little time listening to 11 00:00:44.119 --> 00:00:49.359 conservative talk radio after a Braves game. So yeah, that 12 00:00:49.520 --> 00:00:53.520 was okay. But conservative radio gets a little repetitive and 13 00:00:53.960 --> 00:00:56.320 sounds a lot like some people that you hear from 14 00:00:56.320 --> 00:01:01.640 on Friday nights. Here exact phrases, exact are arguments. It's 15 00:01:01.679 --> 00:01:04.840 as if, let's see, is it Mark Levin? I heard 16 00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:06.920 Mark Levin during this, but I don't know if it 17 00:01:06.959 --> 00:01:11.359 was him, but Sean Hannity and who else was on there? Well? 18 00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:13.879 I listened to Red Eye Radio on the overnight. I 19 00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:16.719 forget those two guys supposedly are the hosts over there 20 00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:18.519 that used to be a big deal Red Eye Radio, 21 00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:23.480 But anyway, and not all this on AM in Georgia. 22 00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:25.200 You might find it on your AM dial own a 23 00:01:25.239 --> 00:01:27.799 lot of parts of the country, et cetera, et cetera. 24 00:01:28.480 --> 00:01:29.799 Some of you might have to go to a short 25 00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:32.359 wave band to go find it anymore. Does anybody even 26 00:01:32.359 --> 00:01:36.040 listen to the radio anymore? I miss it. I miss 27 00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:39.400 having it in a real good metropolitan area like New 28 00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:43.560 York was because there was diversity there, and some guys 29 00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:46.000 would get weird on the overnight trying to get more attention, 30 00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:51.280 trying to, you know, justify their jobs, and was really 31 00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:54.680 strange because the one radio station that I really loved 32 00:01:54.719 --> 00:02:00.000 there was WRT, and I loved that throughout my adult 33 00:02:00.439 --> 00:02:05.079 But WRT took over from a Belmar station that for 34 00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:09.280 many years was part of Mammoth Cable Vision's efforts to 35 00:02:09.319 --> 00:02:11.240 have They used to have a clock channel on the 36 00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:13.680 cable channels in Jersey. I don't know if they had 37 00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:15.520 that all across the country, but I think they did 38 00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:19.080 where it was like basically the local clock and the 39 00:02:19.080 --> 00:02:24.479 temperature outside were displayed in text constantly, and in between 40 00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:26.560 that when you would tune there to look at that, 41 00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:30.039 people bought ads like come down to the dog grooming 42 00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:33.840 joint or come to my pizza place, or like local ads, 43 00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:36.639 and they were fairly cheap and you just paid for 44 00:02:37.719 --> 00:02:41.439 today what would be a quick, easy made graphic, you know, 45 00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:44.599 slide that would play on there. And what they would 46 00:02:44.639 --> 00:02:48.360 do is they would usually make a deal with a 47 00:02:48.439 --> 00:02:54.960 local radio station to become like the information a center 48 00:02:55.039 --> 00:02:57.439 for the area, and the information center for the area 49 00:02:57.439 --> 00:03:01.080 would then tell you about school closings and stuff like 50 00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:03.719 you know, rode outages. You know, again the days before 51 00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:07.400 the Internet and integrated stuff and being able to do 52 00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:10.159 Google maps and whatnot. I mean, they would literally give 53 00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:14.000 you directions to some of the local businesses during commercials. 54 00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:17.800 But anyway, that clock channel they had in Mammoth County 55 00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:22.800 in New Jersey had what they called the easy Listening station, right, 56 00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:26.439 which was like piano versions of like old pop songs 57 00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:30.639 and just easy listening like instrumentals and stuff all day, 58 00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:33.120 like music that I don't know who the hell thought 59 00:03:33.159 --> 00:03:34.960 that was a good idea to have a radio station 60 00:03:35.039 --> 00:03:38.199 devoted to it. But it was just a small station 61 00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:43.879 in South Belmont. And the funniest part about it is 62 00:03:43.919 --> 00:03:45.560 the reason why I bring it up, is because the 63 00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:50.319 guy who was working there on the overnights when WRT 64 00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:54.599 came into existence, and they were the Rat Rocks, the Rocks. 65 00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:59.439 You know, every major media market has a rat at 66 00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:01.960 a Hawk. We're the Hawk because our call letters are 67 00:04:02.039 --> 00:04:04.520 kind of similar to the spelling of the word hawks. 68 00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:07.680 So we're the Hawk, w HWK or whatever you know, 69 00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:12.680 or w R A T. We're you know, blah blah blah. 70 00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:14.960 We're the Rat and the Rat Rocks. 71 00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:21.079 Anyway, hard rock metal station, whatever. But they bought the 72 00:04:21.160 --> 00:04:26.000 easy listing station and the guy who was the overnight 73 00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:29.040 DJ there, who literally had to be there because you 74 00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:32.800 couldn't automate, you know, your overnights, who had to just 75 00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:36.199 basically sit there in the station basically by himself, answer 76 00:04:36.240 --> 00:04:39.800 the phones, handle the music, keep things going until you know, 77 00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:42.839 the morning guys showed up, which is it's always the 78 00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:45.600 big moneymaker, the morning drive time guys right there. They're 79 00:04:45.639 --> 00:04:49.000 your important people, and then your afternoon drive time guys. 80 00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:52.120 They're important right anyway, that's the way radio used to work. 81 00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:54.759 But the funniest thing to me was the guy who 82 00:04:54.839 --> 00:04:57.680 was there for like, we're not going to listen to 83 00:04:57.720 --> 00:05:01.879 Liberaci play a ballad here on w P A T. 84 00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:04.680 I think it was called w p AT and they 85 00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:08.399 made no puns out of it or anything. Pat w 86 00:05:08.480 --> 00:05:14.639 pat w p AT. Anyway, we're gonna listen to Liberaci's uh, 87 00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:17.360 you know, ballad, and we're gonna just get to the 88 00:05:17.399 --> 00:05:22.000 smooth jazz of Yanni, a brand new artist here in 89 00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:27.040 the eighties, you know whatever. So the Rat buys it 90 00:05:27.160 --> 00:05:31.319 in the nineties and it becomes you know, w r AT. 91 00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:36.480 The Rat rocks the Jersey Shore. We're sponsoring local concerts 92 00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:39.800 and shows and coming soon to the Middle Lands Arena. 93 00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:46.120 The Rat sponsors, you know. Hilariously, the guy who was 94 00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:48.240 there going, We're now going to listen to Yanni here 95 00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:52.600 on the Overnight with smooth jazz. That very same guy 96 00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:57.000 is also going, here's the new one from Hubastank. Here 97 00:05:57.079 --> 00:06:03.680 on w r AT is Nickelback. Here's Nickelback, And now 98 00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:05.959 we're going to get really dark and play some Metallica, 99 00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:11.639 not the new Metallica, but the old Metallica. Yeah. Anyway, 100 00:06:11.839 --> 00:06:14.720 the guy's name was Uncle Leo, and he was super 101 00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:17.279 cool to such a point that I called up to 102 00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:19.279 request this song one night because I was working the 103 00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:22.600 night shifts a lot in the early two thousands. In 104 00:06:22.879 --> 00:06:25.399 convenience stores because I had fallen off of my management 105 00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:30.040 gigs and I was just a regular worker in convenience stores. 106 00:06:30.040 --> 00:06:32.800 I was valuable because I knew how to be a manager, 107 00:06:32.879 --> 00:06:35.959 but they would never send me to manager. So you know, oh, 108 00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:38.720 crap's going wrong. You know how to reboot the computers? Yes, 109 00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:41.639 I do. Oh my god, do you know how to 110 00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:43.800 fix it? Yes? I know how to fix that. Oh no, 111 00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:46.360 what do we do about this? You know, managers coming 112 00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:47.879 to me going what do we do? And I would 113 00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:51.160 help him out. So I was useful enough to pay 114 00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:53.480 you know, minimum wage or God help us all when 115 00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:55.360 they found out if I was getting fifty cents more 116 00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:58.560 than the average guy off the street an hour per hour. 117 00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:03.160 By the way, I would call Uncle Leo and be like, 118 00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:09.160 hey man, and I started requesting one song like every night. 119 00:07:09.560 --> 00:07:14.439 I was requesting Black Label Society Suicide Messiah every when 120 00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:18.279 it first came out, because I just wanted it to 121 00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:23.759 get more airplay, And so every night he would play 122 00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:27.720 Black Label Society for me. We just started talking after 123 00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:29.439 a little bit, and he's like, you call me every night, 124 00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:32.240 and you got me play the same song every night 125 00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:36.160 pretty much Excepccasionally I would dedicated a song to somebody 126 00:07:37.000 --> 00:07:40.839 like I think I dedicated that. I forget who did 127 00:07:40.879 --> 00:07:42.879 this song, but I like, your pants are right on 128 00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:45.040 your feet, and I know who you are because I 129 00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:48.399 figured you out. You know that song, I dedicated that 130 00:07:48.439 --> 00:07:52.160 to somebody one night, But no need to tell that story. 131 00:07:53.480 --> 00:07:56.079 The thing is I was dedicated. I was. I was 132 00:07:56.120 --> 00:07:58.680 requesting suicide Missiah like nine out of ten nights, and 133 00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:01.759 I was working a lot of overnights because nobody wanted 134 00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:03.639 to stand in for me, and after a little while 135 00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:06.399 everybody would drop away from the I like being hero 136 00:08:06.439 --> 00:08:08.360 of the overnight too. I'm gonna god Tom pulling asleep 137 00:08:08.360 --> 00:08:11.439 on the overnights. So I ended up with that shift 138 00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:17.680 a lot. Anyway. The thing is, yeah, so I start 139 00:08:17.720 --> 00:08:19.959 talking to Uncle Leo, and Uncle Leo's like yeah, And 140 00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:22.639 then I find out he was the easy listening guy. 141 00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:24.680 And I'm like, that is hilarious. You're you're like the 142 00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:26.560 hard rock guy now, but you were the easy listening 143 00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:29.000 you don't care what you played. And he's like, no, 144 00:08:29.040 --> 00:08:31.040 not really, I'm just you know, doing my DJ gig 145 00:08:31.079 --> 00:08:33.200 and just hanging on here. And he's just the overnight guy. 146 00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:36.679 And that's what he does, and we got into a 147 00:08:36.679 --> 00:08:38.799 whole thing about you know, there's like an overnight world 148 00:08:38.840 --> 00:08:40.960 that goes on while people are sleeping, and they don't 149 00:08:40.960 --> 00:08:44.399 realize it in places like Jersey that they just think, 150 00:08:44.440 --> 00:08:46.120 you know, oh, I got up this morning and the 151 00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:48.360 world came back to life, and it must be. You know, 152 00:08:49.039 --> 00:08:50.960 nine to five is when most things happen, and then 153 00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:53.240 in the early evening some things happen, and then everybody 154 00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:55.799 goes home and goes to bed, you know, like good 155 00:08:55.799 --> 00:08:59.279 little soldiers a tom and you know, autonomous little robots 156 00:08:59.320 --> 00:09:04.399 in society. Anyway, they don't realize that things continue to 157 00:09:04.519 --> 00:09:07.639 happen on the overnight and it's not just the truckers 158 00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:10.000 delivering their stuff, and it's not just no, there's a 159 00:09:10.080 --> 00:09:14.679 whole thing that happens anyway. It's a different reality. It's 160 00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:16.919 a totally different job in a convenience store because you're 161 00:09:16.960 --> 00:09:18.919 usually cleaning up and setting up for the next day, 162 00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:21.480 trying to get all that done. And also, you know, 163 00:09:21.519 --> 00:09:23.360 you're still there to run a business and handle the 164 00:09:23.440 --> 00:09:26.399 drunks that come in after the bars closed and deal 165 00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:28.960 with all that, and handle the very early risers who 166 00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:31.559 have to you know, go ahead and commute to here 167 00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:34.639 and there and whatnot. So you have a different job, 168 00:09:34.679 --> 00:09:36.799 you have a different flow, you have different client hele 169 00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:42.559 than they would see during the day normally. So anyway, 170 00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:44.799 that was the big conversation. But I always found it 171 00:09:44.840 --> 00:09:47.960 funny that the hey, we're gonna do some easy listening jazz, 172 00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:51.120 you know, became the you know, let's play some anthracks. 173 00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:56.480 Da da da da da. And you know, he never 174 00:09:56.559 --> 00:10:00.200 claimed that he didn't like anything, but I think he 175 00:10:00.759 --> 00:10:02.679 might have had stuff. And the funniest part about it 176 00:10:02.759 --> 00:10:06.039 was he was one of the few guys that I 177 00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:11.519 could tell you because I could almost always tell the 178 00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:13.960 racial makeup of somebody on the phone, at least when 179 00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:16.080 I lived up there, I could always tell the racial 180 00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:19.799 makeup of people on the phone. This guy, I never 181 00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:22.399 saw him face to face. And then one day because 182 00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:25.360 he had a side job that he did during the 183 00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:27.600 day too, so he did the overnight DJ thing for 184 00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:31.000 four or five hours, and or six hours. Actually I 185 00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:33.080 think he did six hours of the overnight DJ deal, 186 00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:37.159 and then he would go out and do a day 187 00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:40.600 job for a little bit with some company delivering something. 188 00:10:40.919 --> 00:10:43.679 I don't remember what it was, but I found all 189 00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:46.440 that out and one day he just dropped into my 190 00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:49.960 work because I had called him, you know, and he's, Oh, 191 00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:51.240 I haven't heard for you in a long time. Yeah, 192 00:10:51.240 --> 00:10:52.879 I haven't been doing overnight, so I've been working during 193 00:10:52.879 --> 00:10:55.440 the day. He took that as a cue to drop 194 00:10:55.480 --> 00:10:57.159 in at my work because I would always tell him 195 00:10:57.159 --> 00:10:59.600 I'm at the Shell station here in Lacy, you know, 196 00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:02.000 at the Lacy Show, and he would announce it on 197 00:11:02.039 --> 00:11:03.960 the radio. Chuck at the Lacy Show wants to hear 198 00:11:04.159 --> 00:11:09.480 Black Label Society, So here we go. Anyway, one day 199 00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:13.519 he stops in and he's talking of you, and I 200 00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:15.519 wasn't there, by the way, this is the funniest part 201 00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:18.720 about it. But I wasn't there, and he's talking to 202 00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:20.360 some of the guy But all the guys knew about this, 203 00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:22.200 knew I had, you know, and knew that. Even the 204 00:11:22.279 --> 00:11:26.279 radio station had given me a free tickets to see 205 00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:28.720 Black Label Society when they came through on the tour 206 00:11:29.120 --> 00:11:32.360 because they were a sponsor, and they delivered me to 207 00:11:32.519 --> 00:11:34.799 free tickets. And the funny thing is I couldn't go 208 00:11:34.840 --> 00:11:36.919 because I couldn't get a ride, and that pissed me 209 00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:39.159 off to no end. Friend of mine let me down 210 00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:43.159 on that But anyway, but I had free tickets, free passes, 211 00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:45.679 the whole bit to go and see Black Label Society 212 00:11:45.759 --> 00:11:48.679 just because I was the like this known weird caller 213 00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:50.879 that would just call it almost every night asking them 214 00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:56.840 to play Blackly Society. Anyway, he stops in, he starts 215 00:11:56.879 --> 00:12:00.399 talking to the guys, and they recognized his voice. The 216 00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:02.320 reason why I brought up the racial thing is it 217 00:12:02.360 --> 00:12:06.879 turns out this guy, you know, sounded extremely like typical 218 00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:12.039 suburban white boy and nope, he was quite black and 219 00:12:12.080 --> 00:12:15.759 he had one of those very white sounding voices. I 220 00:12:15.799 --> 00:12:18.279 know that's not, you know, politically correct to say whatever, 221 00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:22.200 but he had a really great DJ voice. It was like, hey, 222 00:12:22.279 --> 00:12:25.720 it's aug Leoh, like the old classic DJ kind of thing. 223 00:12:25.759 --> 00:12:28.799 Not even a hard rock DJ, but just a good DJ. 224 00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:30.799 Like you could definitely take that voice. Put it in 225 00:12:30.840 --> 00:12:33.240 Top forty, put it in classic rock, put it in 226 00:12:33.679 --> 00:12:37.039 He obviously worked in the hard rock genre. He did 227 00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:39.240 the easy list. The easy list thing was funny because 228 00:12:39.279 --> 00:12:41.080 I vaguely remember him there and he was a little 229 00:12:41.080 --> 00:12:43.000 older to me because you know, at the time I 230 00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:45.679 was a teenager catching the fact that he was on 231 00:12:45.720 --> 00:12:49.519 the clock channel, maybe on cable you know, he was 232 00:12:49.559 --> 00:12:52.440 already a grown adult doing his DJ thing after he 233 00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:55.519 got you know, communications degree or whatever, and he just 234 00:12:55.600 --> 00:12:57.799 kept that same job there at that radio station, no 235 00:12:57.879 --> 00:13:01.879 matter what format they went to. Anyway, why did I 236 00:13:01.879 --> 00:13:05.120 bring all this up? Oh? Because you know why. It's 237 00:13:05.240 --> 00:13:08.440 extremely depressing to watch what's happening with the media, with 238 00:13:08.480 --> 00:13:11.679 the alleged news, with the garbage. I mean, and I'm 239 00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:13.919 gonna get to some here today. I wanted to tell 240 00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:16.720 you that story. I don't even it just inspired. I 241 00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:19.039 had no plan on that, but I just, for some reason, 242 00:13:19.320 --> 00:13:21.559 I was inspired to tell you that story. And I 243 00:13:21.600 --> 00:13:26.279 probably didn't even tell it well, but it's funny. WPAT 244 00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:31.120 became WRT in Belmar, New Jersey. I think it still 245 00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:35.840 exists as WRT to this day. When I left Jersey 246 00:13:35.879 --> 00:13:37.879 in twenty fourteen, that was one of the last radio 247 00:13:37.960 --> 00:13:41.080 signals to disappear, you know, like, oh man, there goes 248 00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:49.679 that radio signal. Not going to hear that again. But anyway, John, Okay, 249 00:13:50.200 --> 00:13:52.279 are we gonna go trumpet? Are we gonna go all 250 00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:55.879 trump wall to wall? No? I don't want to, and 251 00:13:55.919 --> 00:13:59.480 I'll tell you why, because this is just past stupid 252 00:13:59.519 --> 00:14:05.360 at this point. I can't speak to his haters because 253 00:14:05.600 --> 00:14:09.879 they're gonna hate irrationally. I can't speak to his fans 254 00:14:10.200 --> 00:14:12.919 and his supporters and his backers and you people that 255 00:14:12.960 --> 00:14:15.960 think Republicans are correct because you won't listen to a 256 00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:19.679 damn thing outside of what Fox News pumps and the 257 00:14:19.759 --> 00:14:25.000 other right wing media pumps. So it's pointless to examine 258 00:14:25.039 --> 00:14:29.240 the stupidity and the blatantness of what's happening with Trump. 259 00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:34.360 But I gotta tell you it's funny. And by the way, 260 00:14:34.360 --> 00:14:36.879 that blatant list is not just about his criminality and 261 00:14:36.919 --> 00:14:40.600 his asinine ridiculous He's gonna erect the country and don't worry, 262 00:14:40.600 --> 00:14:42.039 you'll see it in about four or five years where 263 00:14:42.039 --> 00:14:44.080 people are gonna go what will happened? I thought everything 264 00:14:44.159 --> 00:14:45.799 was going good. 265 00:14:47.480 --> 00:14:47.639 But. 266 00:14:49.120 --> 00:14:54.559 No, the alleged opposition is just as much pillaging you, 267 00:14:54.679 --> 00:14:57.879 and you don't even realize it, none of yet. So 268 00:14:57.919 --> 00:15:00.600 I got I'm talking about why am I gonna politics? 269 00:15:00.639 --> 00:15:03.200 At this point? I mean, you want me to tell 270 00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:05.600 you about the big beautiful bill. It's all big and beautiful. 271 00:15:05.879 --> 00:15:08.519 Even Elon Musk is out there going, yeah, it's not 272 00:15:08.559 --> 00:15:11.879 big and beautiful because it doesn't all benefit him. Like 273 00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:14.279 all of his doze cuts that didn't cut you know, 274 00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:17.919 a trillion dollars away, not even close. But you know, hey, 275 00:15:18.360 --> 00:15:20.039 we got rid of lots of broad Boy. There was 276 00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:21.879 billions and billions of dollars worth of the front. Then 277 00:15:21.919 --> 00:15:23.679 how come you only got rid of like nine billion 278 00:15:23.720 --> 00:15:28.600 dollars worth of crap, redundants and politically motivated cuts like oh, 279 00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:34.720 we're cutting the funding the NPR. Yeah, great, lovely. Oh 280 00:15:34.759 --> 00:15:36.879 they're nasty because they're anti Trump. 281 00:15:38.200 --> 00:15:38.799 Cool. 282 00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:41.919 You're letting a five year old at the controls and 283 00:15:42.039 --> 00:15:44.279 getting back at anybody he doesn't like because he's not 284 00:15:44.320 --> 00:15:47.679 allowed to have ice cream for dinner. But who cares, right, 285 00:15:49.120 --> 00:15:51.440 I don't care At this point, I don't care. I'm 286 00:15:51.440 --> 00:15:52.679 not going to be part of it. A matter of fact, 287 00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:56.200 I don't expect to survive very much longer, so all 288 00:15:56.240 --> 00:16:06.080 good with me anyway. So I don't know, I got 289 00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:08.840 I gotta find my people somewhere. There's some rational people, 290 00:16:10.720 --> 00:16:14.440 you know, somewhere. I don't know where they are, but 291 00:16:14.480 --> 00:16:17.559 I'm hoping to find him anyway. Back to the funniest stuff, 292 00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:19.840 and I want to get to you know, I gotta 293 00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:22.039 laugh because I know I'm gonna die. I love that 294 00:16:21.799 --> 00:16:24.879 that that line from Detroit Rock City. I guess we 295 00:16:24.879 --> 00:16:27.080 can talk about Whitmer real quick and how she's like 296 00:16:27.200 --> 00:16:31.840 all surprised now somehow that Oh, no, Trump's gonna pardon 297 00:16:31.879 --> 00:16:35.200 the people that you know, Look, that was a PS 298 00:16:35.200 --> 00:16:38.000 case to begin with. And I want you guys to 299 00:16:38.080 --> 00:16:44.679 follow some interesting logic here, because a lot of people 300 00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:47.759 watching the Trump pardon they're pissed off because he's, you know, 301 00:16:47.799 --> 00:16:50.720 partning criminals. I'm not I'm not who else you gonna 302 00:16:50.720 --> 00:16:56.799 pardon but criminals. But the thing is they don't want 303 00:16:56.799 --> 00:17:01.399 to see right up front, what's what? Okay, he pardons 304 00:17:01.440 --> 00:17:03.360 the J six people, but a lot of you were 305 00:17:03.399 --> 00:17:07.759 screaming the J six people were nothing but Antifa making trouble. 306 00:17:09.640 --> 00:17:15.000 So is he pardoning Antifa? Now? By the way, where 307 00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:18.920 is Antifa? Oh? They stopped writing paychecks because they weren't 308 00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:23.119 useful anymore, right, because even the left wing didn't believe 309 00:17:25.079 --> 00:17:27.960 that that you know, clown show was real people that 310 00:17:28.039 --> 00:17:34.920 weren't getting paid dact But anyway, is Charlie Sheen still winning? 311 00:17:35.920 --> 00:17:38.640 I know Pewee Herman's dead, but is Charlie Sheen still winning? 312 00:17:39.680 --> 00:17:42.160 These are the irrelevant questions that come up here, because, 313 00:17:42.279 --> 00:17:47.799 believe me, it's all irrelevant at this point. Anyway, back 314 00:17:47.920 --> 00:17:50.640 back to the fun and the funny, right. I love 315 00:17:50.920 --> 00:17:53.119 that somebody paid six hundred and forty dollars. This is 316 00:17:53.119 --> 00:17:56.319 according to GQ. By the way, one of Donald Trump 317 00:17:56.400 --> 00:17:58.480 fans paid six hundred and forty dollars for one of 318 00:17:58.480 --> 00:18:02.119 those you know, maga watches and they didn't have a 319 00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:03.759 tea on the face of the watch. I love it, 320 00:18:03.960 --> 00:18:10.000 major typo. So the watch says Rump instead of Trump. 321 00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:16.559 Now I'd be pissed at six hundred and you know, 322 00:18:16.599 --> 00:18:19.559 six dollars and forty cents. You go, well, I bought 323 00:18:19.599 --> 00:18:21.960 a cheap Chinese piece of crap. It's okay, I get it. 324 00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:25.599 But you got a Rump watch when you're a big 325 00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:33.559 supporter of his. Let me let me read from the article. 326 00:18:33.920 --> 00:18:36.839 Last September, Donald Trump launched a wide range of watches, 327 00:18:37.279 --> 00:18:43.599 including everything from one hundred thousand dollars tour billions to 328 00:18:44.400 --> 00:18:50.640 relatively affordable Drivers style pieces, Divers style pieces. You not 329 00:18:50.759 --> 00:18:54.279 driver h The watch has carried all the the hallmarks 330 00:18:54.279 --> 00:18:57.720 of the current president's style. They're gaudy, over the top 331 00:18:57.759 --> 00:19:01.920 and gold, and many of them come covered in diamonds, 332 00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:07.119 even any of those diamonds are real anyway, and as 333 00:19:07.279 --> 00:19:09.839 of this week, at least one of the time pieces 334 00:19:09.880 --> 00:19:18.079 shares another qualery with many of Trump's products, It's defective. 335 00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:23.920 Tim Pettitt, a Rhode Island man, bought a six and 336 00:19:24.000 --> 00:19:29.279 forty dollars inauguration first Lady Watch. The timepiece is a 337 00:19:29.279 --> 00:19:35.880 gold tone, pink dialed limited edition Trump themed dive watch 338 00:19:36.039 --> 00:19:39.960 that Pettitt got as a gift for his wife only 339 00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:43.480 for the show up. Missing the tea in Trump, NBC 340 00:19:43.640 --> 00:19:47.240 ten News reported a single missing letter wouldn't be so 341 00:19:47.400 --> 00:19:51.200 funny if this didn't result in the dial reading Rump. 342 00:19:55.319 --> 00:20:00.960 Why is that funny to me? Because it's it's metaphorically brilliant, 343 00:20:01.359 --> 00:20:05.799 That's why. Anyway, what else is happening? Russian official Medvedev 344 00:20:05.960 --> 00:20:12.599 offers Trump World War three warning after Putin comments, Okay, 345 00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:16.359 this is pretty funny. I may have to wind this back. 346 00:20:16.440 --> 00:20:18.359 See if we can get an audio on this. Let 347 00:20:18.400 --> 00:20:22.319 me see get you a little audio Trump. Here they 348 00:20:22.359 --> 00:20:27.240 have foreign students about thirty of their student's wrong audio clip. Okay, 349 00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:31.799 never mind, maybe I have a different audio clip here somewhere. 350 00:20:31.839 --> 00:20:34.039 I should have one and I've got other issues to 351 00:20:34.079 --> 00:20:37.599 get to, by the way, outside of this, you know, 352 00:20:38.480 --> 00:20:41.559 I want to cover what was emailed to me regarding 353 00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:45.880 Memorial Day and all that too, which I'm going to 354 00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:48.359 in a serious segment, But I got let me have 355 00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:52.319 my fun first. Guys. You know, when I see a 356 00:20:52.359 --> 00:20:56.440 BBC headline this week from cat You're into gunpowder exploring 357 00:20:56.480 --> 00:20:59.319 the peculiar smells about her space. When I see that 358 00:20:59.400 --> 00:21:03.680 kind of headline from the BBC, I should know what 359 00:21:03.759 --> 00:21:06.279 kind of world I live in. I'm gonna post that 360 00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:08.279 one in the live chat room at Chelly dot com. 361 00:21:08.279 --> 00:21:12.319 We're probably nobody is, but who cares?

By the way, I'm 369 00:21:34.920 --> 00:21:36.960 not happy with what Putin's doing. 370 00:21:37.000 --> 00:21:38.920 He's killing a lot of people, and I don't know 371 00:21:38.960 --> 00:21:40.319 what the hell happened to Putin. 372 00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:43.599 I've known him a long time, always gotten along with him. 373 00:21:43.960 --> 00:21:47.319 But he's sending rockets into cities and killing people, and 374 00:21:47.400 --> 00:21:52.559 I don't like it at all. Okay, I don't like 375 00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:55.440 it at all. He's doing something. Something happened to Putin. 376 00:21:55.519 --> 00:21:58.079 Oh my goodness, is something.

Okay, if Putin is doing Putin, Putin is 382 00:22:12.240 --> 00:22:14.359 doing his thing, and he's been doing the same thing. 383 00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:17.079 I kid believe he's sending rockets into city where you 384 00:22:17.200 --> 00:22:22.720 been for three years? You think this is new. Something happened, 385 00:22:23.960 --> 00:22:30.319 the fact that Ukraine is holding on this long. You know, 386 00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:33.480 those self made American men who think that we believe 387 00:22:33.480 --> 00:22:36.000 in toughness and we believe in divide, defining our own 388 00:22:36.039 --> 00:22:40.960 futures and we're a miracle. You should have respect for 389 00:22:41.039 --> 00:22:45.240 the Ukrainians holding on against the onslaught from the Russian Federation, 390 00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:48.240 but their nuts is jugging.
