00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.520
<v Speaker 1>This is Dan Caples and welcome to today's online podcast

2

<v Speaker 1>edition of The Dan Caplis Show. Please be sure to

<v Speaker 1>single day on your favorite podcast platform.

6
00:00:14.919 --> 00:00:18.320
<v Speaker 2>We do celebration continue, and let's celebrate even harder today

7
00:00:18.359 --> 00:00:21.120
<v Speaker 2>because it's a Friday, and because it's happening right and

8
00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:23.120
<v Speaker 2>you don't have to like every pick. I don't have

9
00:00:23.160 --> 00:00:25.920
<v Speaker 2>to like every pick. That's not the point. The point

10
00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:29.280
<v Speaker 2>is Trump is delivering on what he promised, and we

11
00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:31.120
<v Speaker 2>know the last words he's going to say on his

12
00:00:31.199 --> 00:00:33.960
<v Speaker 2>last day in office. We know those already write him down.

13
00:00:34.359 --> 00:00:37.840
<v Speaker 2>Promise is made, Promise is kept. And that's what we're

14
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:40.600
<v Speaker 2>getting right now is it's not more of the same,

15
00:00:41.079 --> 00:00:45.520
<v Speaker 2>it's something completely different. It is disruptive because the people

16
00:00:45.679 --> 00:00:48.799
<v Speaker 2>don't like the status quo, and so there is a

17
00:00:48.840 --> 00:00:51.560
<v Speaker 2>lot to celebrate, even if you don't approve of every

18
00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:53.719
<v Speaker 2>pick eight five five zero five A two to five

19
00:00:53.799 --> 00:00:57.200
<v Speaker 2>five The number text d an five seven seven three nine.

20
00:00:57.280 --> 00:01:00.240
<v Speaker 2>So it's Friday treated as open lines. Of course, We've

21
00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:02.359
<v Speaker 2>been training every show as open lines for as far

22
00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:04.599
<v Speaker 2>as I can remember, because that's the nature of the

23
00:01:04.599 --> 00:01:08.079
<v Speaker 2>world right now, right that the old days of talk radio,

24
00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:10.480
<v Speaker 2>and I'm blessed to be going on about thirty years.

25
00:01:10.480 --> 00:01:12.599
<v Speaker 2>I've got this weekend around, I'm going to count up

26
00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:15.920
<v Speaker 2>the number of years so that if if it is

27
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:18.680
<v Speaker 2>like closing in on thirty, maybe we just passed thirty.

28
00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:22.319
<v Speaker 2>But we'll have some kind of thirtieth anniversary show, right,

29
00:01:22.519 --> 00:01:25.560
<v Speaker 2>and which will probably cost the show to get canceled immediately.

30
00:01:25.840 --> 00:01:29.079
<v Speaker 2>That's just the way those things work. The last time

31
00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:32.040
<v Speaker 2>we won Colorado Broadcaster of the Year whatever they gave us,

32
00:01:32.200 --> 00:01:34.680
<v Speaker 2>right the big award, Yeah, they canceled the show like

33
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:37.560
<v Speaker 2>two weeks later. So we've got to avoid those big

34
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:42.680
<v Speaker 2>impressive milestones. But all I can say is this is

35
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:44.920
<v Speaker 2>as much fun as talk radio gets eight five five

36
00:01:44.920 --> 00:01:47.319
<v Speaker 2>for zero five eight two five five text d an

37
00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:51.760
<v Speaker 2>five seven seven three nine. Not just because America one, right,

38
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:54.040
<v Speaker 2>Not just because America one. Because there are always going to

39
00:01:54.079 --> 00:01:55.920
<v Speaker 2>be ups and downs in a human endeavor, that's just

40
00:01:55.959 --> 00:01:59.599
<v Speaker 2>the way it is. But because this was a hinge election,

41
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:02.439
<v Speaker 2>and because there's so much reason to believe there are

42
00:02:02.519 --> 00:02:05.480
<v Speaker 2>great things ahead and the chance for that to be

43
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:08.680
<v Speaker 2>long term. So got to enjoy this stuff when you

44
00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:11.599
<v Speaker 2>get it. I had one of those epiphanies last night,

45
00:02:11.639 --> 00:02:14.879
<v Speaker 2>one of those political epiphanies. And I'm always so grateful

46
00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:18.159
<v Speaker 2>when those happen, because whenever I get like a really

47
00:02:18.199 --> 00:02:22.240
<v Speaker 2>really good idea or understanding or awakening, I know it

48
00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:24.759
<v Speaker 2>has nothing to do with me, right, and it's just

49
00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:29.719
<v Speaker 2>it's something crystallizes. And it just really crystallized for me

50
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:32.120
<v Speaker 2>last night. And it happened to be about Matt Gates.

51
00:02:32.159 --> 00:02:33.960
<v Speaker 2>And I'll get to that in a second, which is

52
00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:36.759
<v Speaker 2>really interesting because I've got to tell you he has

53
00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:39.120
<v Speaker 2>been just from a distance. I've never met the guy.

54
00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:41.000
<v Speaker 2>I know some people have met him and really like him.

55
00:02:41.039 --> 00:02:43.759
<v Speaker 2>I've never met him, But from a distance he's been.

56
00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:46.120
<v Speaker 2>You know, he has been one of my least favorite

57
00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:49.639
<v Speaker 2>people in politics, just watching it on the stage. And

58
00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:52.439
<v Speaker 2>I really do blame him for all that disruption that

59
00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:54.400
<v Speaker 2>led to the ouster of McCarthy. And it's not that

60
00:02:54.439 --> 00:02:57.479
<v Speaker 2>I love McCarthy, but the point is all of that

61
00:02:57.520 --> 00:03:00.919
<v Speaker 2>disruption was bad for the conservative cost, et cetera. So

62
00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:03.280
<v Speaker 2>I haven't been sitting around being a Gates fan by

63
00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:06.000
<v Speaker 2>any stretch of the imagination, but I do have to

64
00:03:06.039 --> 00:03:09.520
<v Speaker 2>tell you admit to it. The more the Left loses

65
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:12.680
<v Speaker 2>its mind, the more I like them. But on a

66
00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:15.360
<v Speaker 2>deeper level, And this is one of those kind of

67
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:17.719
<v Speaker 2>beyond the obvious things. And when are we going to

68
00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:20.199
<v Speaker 2>rename the show? Because we did that for a week.

69
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:22.960
<v Speaker 2>We did a topic on Hey, let's come up with

70
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:25.199
<v Speaker 2>a new name for the show, and we had this

71
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:28.479
<v Speaker 2>caller had the great idea of beyond the obvious, because

72
00:03:28.479 --> 00:03:31.159
<v Speaker 2>that's what we strive for here, is to you add

73
00:03:31.240 --> 00:03:33.439
<v Speaker 2>value to your day by making points that are beyond

74
00:03:33.439 --> 00:03:36.080
<v Speaker 2>the obvious. We all just our minds now, and this

75
00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:37.840
<v Speaker 2>has happened. I think over the last five years, have

76
00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:41.159
<v Speaker 2>just become programmed to turn off when we start hearing

77
00:03:41.199 --> 00:03:44.280
<v Speaker 2>talking points, unless it's the Good Lord himself come down

78
00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:48.159
<v Speaker 2>to give us some talking points. Yeah, our minds just

79
00:03:48.199 --> 00:03:50.520
<v Speaker 2>turn off. So beyond the obvious. But here's the point

80
00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:52.719
<v Speaker 2>I want to make before we go into our phone

81
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:55.199
<v Speaker 2>lines and our texts. Though I don't know that my

82
00:03:55.360 --> 00:03:58.759
<v Speaker 2>text can rival. I'm saying about forty texts here on

83
00:03:58.919 --> 00:04:03.000
<v Speaker 2>deer hunting to Ryan, and I cannot compete with that

84
00:04:03.039 --> 00:04:05.800
<v Speaker 2>because growing up on the South Side of Chicago, we

85
00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:10.240
<v Speaker 2>never saw a deer. Let alone hunted one. I saw hunting,

86
00:04:10.319 --> 00:04:14.840
<v Speaker 2>but it was hunting of humans, and so I'm not

87
00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:17.720
<v Speaker 2>sure that qualifies. But here's the point before we go

88
00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:20.199
<v Speaker 2>to the phone lines on this Matt Gates stuff. And

89
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:22.519
<v Speaker 2>I know it's along the lines that I've been talking

90
00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:28.240
<v Speaker 2>about since that nomination was announced during our airtime. But

91
00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:34.720
<v Speaker 2>here's what it comes down to. Because the Democrats unleashed

92
00:04:34.720 --> 00:04:38.319
<v Speaker 2>hell literally on this nation when they opened that Pandora's

93
00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:43.319
<v Speaker 2>box and decided that the modern Democratic Party was now

94
00:04:43.360 --> 00:04:47.120
<v Speaker 2>going to pervert the legal system to try to destroy

95
00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:49.560
<v Speaker 2>and jail their political opponents who they could not beat

96
00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:50.839
<v Speaker 2>at the pole. So I mean, that's the sort of

97
00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:53.279
<v Speaker 2>stuff that can undermine a nation. We can never be

98
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:56.680
<v Speaker 2>defeated from the outside. We can be badly wounded, we

99
00:04:56.720 --> 00:05:00.279
<v Speaker 2>can be staggered, we can be set back decades, never

100
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:02.600
<v Speaker 2>be defeated from the outside. Only from the inside, and

101
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:04.639
<v Speaker 2>from the inside. There are only a few ways to

102
00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:08.120
<v Speaker 2>defeat us. But that is in the top two or three,

103
00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:11.959
<v Speaker 2>if not number one. Is this whole Banana Republic law

104
00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:16.160
<v Speaker 2>fair jail your political opponent things. Okay, Once the Democrats

105
00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:22.240
<v Speaker 2>decided to unleash that, they forever changed the nature of

106
00:05:22.279 --> 00:05:25.959
<v Speaker 2>the attorney general's office, And no longer can any president,

107
00:05:26.720 --> 00:05:31.600
<v Speaker 2>certainly not any Republican president, have a typical attorney general

108
00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:35.120
<v Speaker 2>who is first and foremost chosen for her or his

109
00:05:35.720 --> 00:05:39.199
<v Speaker 2>you know, particular legal skills and abilities and administrative etc.

110
00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:43.959
<v Speaker 2>They simply literally don't have that option because now that

111
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:48.519
<v Speaker 2>the Democrats have unleashed these demons of banana republic lawfare,

112
00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:55.160
<v Speaker 2>any Republican president must have in that position somebody they

113
00:05:55.279 --> 00:06:01.439
<v Speaker 2>know to be completely thoroughly, incorruptively loyal to them, because

114
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:04.839
<v Speaker 2>that's the one position that can kill them, can end

115
00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:08.879
<v Speaker 2>them politically the very first day of their term or

116
00:06:08.959 --> 00:06:12.319
<v Speaker 2>any other date during their term, all they have to

117
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:15.600
<v Speaker 2>do is announce they're appointing a special prosecutor. All they

118
00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:19.199
<v Speaker 2>have to do is is give in to one of

119
00:06:19.240 --> 00:06:24.279
<v Speaker 2>these politically motivated plays from the left. That's all they

120
00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:27.879
<v Speaker 2>have to do. And so it is the left that

121
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:30.759
<v Speaker 2>has forever changed the nature of these appointments. And I

122
00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:35.800
<v Speaker 2>think that's a profoundly sad thing, profoundly said. And so

123
00:06:36.759 --> 00:06:40.439
<v Speaker 2>since we're in that reality, what I would I completely

124
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:44.920
<v Speaker 2>understand why Trump would want Gates because Trump was almost

125
00:06:44.959 --> 00:06:50.519
<v Speaker 2>destroyed politically and almost put in prison during his first

126
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:55.079
<v Speaker 2>term because of what the Democrats unleashed done him with

127
00:06:55.199 --> 00:06:59.600
<v Speaker 2>the Russia hoax and then what the Democrats followed up

128
00:06:59.639 --> 00:07:04.360
<v Speaker 2>with in abusing our legal system. So would I compare

129
00:07:04.399 --> 00:07:06.759
<v Speaker 2>it to And this is kind of the epiphany I

130
00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:10.759
<v Speaker 2>had last night, because this first point had been crystallizing

131
00:07:10.839 --> 00:07:13.879
<v Speaker 2>and I'd been talking about it on air, and that

132
00:07:13.959 --> 00:07:17.240
<v Speaker 2>it's the Democrats have forever changed the nature of this appointment,

133
00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:21.439
<v Speaker 2>at least for Republican presidents, just for survival and so

134
00:07:21.480 --> 00:07:24.959
<v Speaker 2>they can fulfill their promises to the nation and their

135
00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:28.639
<v Speaker 2>obligation to the nation. They simply can't afford to have

136
00:07:28.759 --> 00:07:32.279
<v Speaker 2>their very next political breath and every political breath after

137
00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:36.240
<v Speaker 2>that at the whim of whoever happens to be attorney general.

138
00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:41.000
<v Speaker 2>They have to have a loyalist. But it occurred to

139
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:45.079
<v Speaker 2>me overnight. It would be similar to if there was

140
00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:49.319
<v Speaker 2>a position in government where the job of that person

141
00:07:49.600 --> 00:07:54.079
<v Speaker 2>was to sit next to the president's bed as the

142
00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:59.360
<v Speaker 2>president slept every night, and that person would get to

143
00:07:59.399 --> 00:08:04.879
<v Speaker 2>decide whether to euthanize the president or not. That was

144
00:08:04.959 --> 00:08:08.199
<v Speaker 2>just in their job description, and they would have such

145
00:08:08.279 --> 00:08:12.800
<v Speaker 2>broad discretion that if they decided to euthanize the president

146
00:08:12.839 --> 00:08:15.680
<v Speaker 2>they're probably going to be fine in terms of their

147
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:20.160
<v Speaker 2>job and everything else. And if there was such a

148
00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:26.319
<v Speaker 2>position deciding that the president did not have any control over,

149
00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:32.200
<v Speaker 2>who would hold that position because of what the Democrats

150
00:08:32.200 --> 00:08:37.000
<v Speaker 2>have done in abusing the attorney general's position, what the

151
00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:41.279
<v Speaker 2>Democrats have done in terms of the Russia hoax is

152
00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:44.279
<v Speaker 2>they've created that kind of threat to Donald Trump and

153
00:08:44.320 --> 00:08:50.360
<v Speaker 2>every Republican president because that's what an attorney general could do.

154
00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:54.399
<v Speaker 2>They could euthanize Trump politically in a heartbeat. So he

155
00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:56.600
<v Speaker 2>has to have a loyalist because if you're going to

156
00:08:56.679 --> 00:08:59.519
<v Speaker 2>choose who holds that position of the person who sits

157
00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:02.440
<v Speaker 2>by your bed and while you're sleeping every night can

158
00:09:02.440 --> 00:09:05.480
<v Speaker 2>decide whether to euthanize you or not, you're gonna want

159
00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:08.919
<v Speaker 2>a loyalist in that position. Let's go to a beautiful

160
00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:10.799
<v Speaker 2>Boulder color, I don't. We'll kick it off with David.

161
00:09:10.879 --> 00:09:12.159
<v Speaker 2>You're on the Dan Kaplis Show.

162
00:09:12.159 --> 00:09:16.240
<v Speaker 3>Welcome, it's been too long, Dan, congrats. I know it's

163
00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:17.639
<v Speaker 3>been an exciting couple of weeks for you.

164
00:09:17.799 --> 00:09:19.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, thank you. More to come.

165
00:09:19.919 --> 00:09:22.320
<v Speaker 3>But first I want to ask, as an old boxing guy,

166
00:09:22.360 --> 00:09:24.320
<v Speaker 3>you're leading music always?

167
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:25.080
<v Speaker 4>Uh you know?

168
00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:31.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh, thank you for asking that question. Can you actually

169
00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:33.039
<v Speaker 2>bet on this fight tonight?

170
00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:33.840
<v Speaker 5>Oh?

171
00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:34.279
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure.

172
00:09:34.440 --> 00:09:34.679
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

173
00:09:34.799 --> 00:09:37.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh well, I'm in this next break. Let's take this

174
00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:39.480
<v Speaker 2>break early because I'm gonna go bet everything I have

175
00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:42.399
<v Speaker 2>on Mike Tyson. Really well, listen, man, I I don't

176
00:09:42.519 --> 00:09:46.600
<v Speaker 2>know Mike Tyson, but I studied Mike Tyson in great

177
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:51.600
<v Speaker 2>depth because I covered his rape trial for NBC and

178
00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:55.080
<v Speaker 2>and I was in the courtroom sitting three rows behind

179
00:09:55.159 --> 00:09:58.120
<v Speaker 2>Mike Tyson and his aunt gourage to that entire trial

180
00:09:58.159 --> 00:10:01.960
<v Speaker 2>in Indianapolis. After reading everything you could read on Tyson,

181
00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:08.480
<v Speaker 2>Remember Don King, David, Mike Tyson's Yeah, Don King. Literally

182
00:10:08.519 --> 00:10:11.600
<v Speaker 2>as the verdict was being read, Don King's leg was

183
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:14.240
<v Speaker 2>touching mine. We were sitting next to each other in

184
00:10:14.279 --> 00:10:17.559
<v Speaker 2>the courtroom as the verdict was being that bet all

185
00:10:17.679 --> 00:10:20.799
<v Speaker 2>the big hair, the whole thing. Yeah. And so all

186
00:10:20.799 --> 00:10:23.039
<v Speaker 2>I'm telling you is a guy who has studied Tyson

187
00:10:23.120 --> 00:10:27.120
<v Speaker 2>in depth. I mean to the point, well, I don't

188
00:10:27.120 --> 00:10:29.360
<v Speaker 2>want to go there. It's a family show, but things

189
00:10:29.360 --> 00:10:31.279
<v Speaker 2>that are written about him and in the most personal

190
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:34.559
<v Speaker 2>kind of ways, there is no doubt that unless he

191
00:10:34.720 --> 00:10:37.000
<v Speaker 2>for some reason wants to throw this fight tonight. And

192
00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:39.279
<v Speaker 2>I don't think he will, that he's going to destroy

193
00:10:39.360 --> 00:10:39.840
<v Speaker 2>this guy.

194
00:10:40.919 --> 00:10:43.320
<v Speaker 3>He's a fifty eight year old man. I'm in agreement.

195
00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:46.120
<v Speaker 3>I want to see Tyson wins this, you know, online

196
00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:49.240
<v Speaker 3>influencer to screw him, right, but take it.

197
00:10:49.600 --> 00:10:52.559
<v Speaker 2>I don't care if Mike Tyson was fighting another contender

198
00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:54.519
<v Speaker 2>right now. And you're welcome to hand David. We have

199
00:10:54.559 --> 00:10:57.399
<v Speaker 2>to hit this mandatory break, but I'm going to go

200
00:10:57.440 --> 00:10:59.639
<v Speaker 2>somewhere and legally bet on that fight right now and

201
00:10:59.679 --> 00:11:01.879
<v Speaker 2>I'll see after the break. You're on the Dan Capla Show.

202
00:11:03.919 --> 00:11:06.320
<v Speaker 6>And now back to the Dan Taplas Show podcast.

203
00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:08.000
<v Speaker 2>Rocky Knows.

204
00:11:08.559 --> 00:11:11.600
<v Speaker 7>If you remember, the first image was the picture of

205
00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:16.559
<v Speaker 7>Jesus as a resurrection ac club. I found a church

206
00:11:17.000 --> 00:11:19.679
<v Speaker 7>that had been converted to a boxing ring, so the

207
00:11:19.759 --> 00:11:24.080
<v Speaker 7>image pans down from Jesus onto Rocky being hid. And

208
00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:27.159
<v Speaker 7>at that moment he was a chosen person and that's

209
00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:30.360
<v Speaker 7>how I began the journey. Something was going to happen.

210
00:11:30.440 --> 00:11:31.960
<v Speaker 7>This man was going to go through a.

211
00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:42.279
<v Speaker 8>Metamorphosis and change lives, just like President Trump. Piven last night, Hold,

212
00:11:42.360 --> 00:11:46.080
<v Speaker 8>I do you that we are in the presence of

213
00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:51.320
<v Speaker 8>a really mythical character. I love mythology, and this individual

214
00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:54.679
<v Speaker 8>does not exist on this planet. Nobody in the world

215
00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:56.720
<v Speaker 8>could have pulled off what he pulled off. So I'm

216
00:11:56.759 --> 00:12:03.799
<v Speaker 8>in awe and I'll just say this and I mean it.

217
00:12:04.960 --> 00:12:08.159
<v Speaker 7>Well, George Washington defended his country.

218
00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:11.840
<v Speaker 9>He had no idea that he was going to change

219
00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:15.519
<v Speaker 9>the world, because without him, you can imagine what.

220
00:12:15.399 --> 00:12:16.399
<v Speaker 2>The world would look like.

221
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:20.279
<v Speaker 9>Guess what we got the second George Washington Congress issues.

222
00:12:23.679 --> 00:12:28.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, mythical figure. I don't think there's any doubt about that.

223
00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:32.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean that that Donald Trump is that larger than life,

224
00:12:32.639 --> 00:12:39.960
<v Speaker 2>just just beyond anything that anybody, any type of president

225
00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:42.000
<v Speaker 2>that we would have imagined. I don't think there's any

226
00:12:42.039 --> 00:12:43.720
<v Speaker 2>doubt about that. Now, you got the people like me

227
00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:48.039
<v Speaker 2>who say he's historically great in terms of policy. You

228
00:12:48.080 --> 00:12:50.159
<v Speaker 2>got other people who would see at one't eighty. But

229
00:12:50.240 --> 00:12:53.480
<v Speaker 2>in terms of kind of a mythical stature, Yeah, this

230
00:12:53.600 --> 00:12:55.320
<v Speaker 2>is this is one of one.

231
00:12:55.960 --> 00:12:58.519
<v Speaker 10>Think about this, Dan, four generations from now. Let's say

232
00:12:58.519 --> 00:13:00.679
<v Speaker 10>in a hundred years and there's a middle school or

233
00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:04.279
<v Speaker 10>high school history student reading about Donald Trump. They're not

234
00:13:04.320 --> 00:13:07.120
<v Speaker 10>going to believe that all this happened to him, or

235
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:10.360
<v Speaker 10>happened for him, or happened by him. I mean I

236
00:13:10.360 --> 00:13:12.240
<v Speaker 10>think at that point he may be a bit of

237
00:13:12.240 --> 00:13:13.159
<v Speaker 10>a mythical character.

238
00:13:13.440 --> 00:13:15.600
<v Speaker 2>Well, one of the things I think he's clearly already

239
00:13:15.639 --> 00:13:17.879
<v Speaker 2>One of the things that makes him mythical is he

240
00:13:17.960 --> 00:13:21.639
<v Speaker 2>wasn't crushed by all that he had a major setback

241
00:13:21.679 --> 00:13:24.440
<v Speaker 2>in twenty but he was able to overcome it all.

242
00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:28.519
<v Speaker 2>And listen, anybody who looks at it and looks at

243
00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:32.039
<v Speaker 2>what what are the odds that he survives at assassin's bullet,

244
00:13:32.039 --> 00:13:35.799
<v Speaker 2>that he turns his head at just that instant, and

245
00:13:36.039 --> 00:13:38.799
<v Speaker 2>then he's able to overcome everything to win this second term.

246
00:13:38.840 --> 00:13:40.840
<v Speaker 2>And I have no doubt the second term is going

247
00:13:40.919 --> 00:13:42.840
<v Speaker 2>to be a very good term. Yeah, I don't think

248
00:13:42.879 --> 00:13:45.960
<v Speaker 2>there's any doubt about the mythical status. By the way,

249
00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:49.600
<v Speaker 2>I could not find that fight. I could not find

250
00:13:49.600 --> 00:13:51.519
<v Speaker 2>a place to bet on that fight tonight. Is there

251
00:13:51.559 --> 00:13:53.759
<v Speaker 2>a legal place to bet on that fight? A caller

252
00:13:53.799 --> 00:13:56.399
<v Speaker 2>in the first segment had brought up the Tyson fight.

253
00:13:56.440 --> 00:13:57.960
<v Speaker 2>One of my take on who is going to win?

254
00:13:58.080 --> 00:14:00.320
<v Speaker 10>I'll either go ask the sports guy's myself all for

255
00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:01.600
<v Speaker 10>have Kelly doing yeah.

256
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:03.840
<v Speaker 2>Because I if I can bet on it legally, I

257
00:14:03.840 --> 00:14:07.519
<v Speaker 2>want to do that because I studied Tyson in depth,

258
00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:09.960
<v Speaker 2>that I doubt very few people have ever done. Because

259
00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:13.720
<v Speaker 2>I was covering his rape trial for NBC Nationals as

260
00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:17.000
<v Speaker 2>well as a lot of their affiliates, and then local

261
00:14:17.120 --> 00:14:20.320
<v Speaker 2>media here and and of course our radio stations and

262
00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:23.360
<v Speaker 2>Channel four. So I had to study every aspect of

263
00:14:23.399 --> 00:14:26.039
<v Speaker 2>his life. I was very close to him in the courtroom,

264
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:29.480
<v Speaker 2>not close personally, but physically close to him during the trial.

265
00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:35.200
<v Speaker 2>Overheard conversations with his entourage. Boy, yeah, no, he's this

266
00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:37.279
<v Speaker 2>guy is going to be lucky if he survives the

267
00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:41.720
<v Speaker 2>fight tonight whoever he's fighting. But yeah, so please do

268
00:14:41.799 --> 00:14:44.039
<v Speaker 2>let me know if there's a place to legally bet

269
00:14:44.480 --> 00:14:52.320
<v Speaker 2>all proceeds to charity. That's that's a cold I'm not Yeah,

270
00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:55.279
<v Speaker 2>let's go to Karmendale. What a beautiful place that is. Richard.

<v Speaker 2>You're on the Dan Kaplis Show.

272
00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:01.480
<v Speaker 11>Welcome, Hey Dan, I'm the beyond the obvious guy.

<v Speaker 2>Oh my lord, thank you to you. Richard. What a

274
00:15:04.159 --> 00:15:04.639
<v Speaker 2>great show.

275
00:15:04.720 --> 00:15:06.799
<v Speaker 11>Now you use it a couple of times in just

276
00:15:06.919 --> 00:15:09.320
<v Speaker 11>in dialogue as the show goes. That's the way. About

277
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:11.960
<v Speaker 11>six months ago or more of that, Ryan was still

278
00:15:12.000 --> 00:15:14.080
<v Speaker 11>your producer. He's great on his show, by.

279
00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:16.879
<v Speaker 2>The way, is Yeah, I listened every day he's doing great.

280
00:15:16.919 --> 00:15:18.799
<v Speaker 2>I don't get any work done. I just listened for

281
00:15:18.840 --> 00:15:19.840
<v Speaker 2>those two hours.

282
00:15:20.279 --> 00:15:22.720
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, yeah, I know, it's great. So that's it. I

283
00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:26.840
<v Speaker 11>wanted just quick glad you brought that up, and just

284
00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:32.559
<v Speaker 11>some quick comments. I think the Kennedy appointment wonderful. I mean,

285
00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:35.360
<v Speaker 11>the implications of that, him taking poison out of our

286
00:15:35.399 --> 00:15:45.240
<v Speaker 11>food is great. And also the and uh vega, I mean,

287
00:15:45.759 --> 00:15:52.000
<v Speaker 11>I'm sorry, you know what. Yeah, thank yeah, yeah, that's

288
00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:54.399
<v Speaker 11>a tough one. I'm sure all his life he had

289
00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:58.399
<v Speaker 11>to save that. But anyway, I think government spending, don't

290
00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:01.799
<v Speaker 11>you think it's how many? How many duplications of government

291
00:16:01.879 --> 00:16:04.519
<v Speaker 11>work are you know is going on? And I was

292
00:16:04.559 --> 00:16:07.080
<v Speaker 11>hearing today it may have been on Ryan shows. Some

293
00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:11.320
<v Speaker 11>one was talking about all the stupid you know, government

294
00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:15.399
<v Speaker 11>finances of badger fighting in Uruguay or something, you know

295
00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:18.000
<v Speaker 11>what I mean, Just hundreds of thousands, if not millions

296
00:16:18.000 --> 00:16:19.480
<v Speaker 11>of dollars on stupid things.

297
00:16:19.480 --> 00:16:22.320
<v Speaker 2>So well said my friend, Well said, you think.

298
00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:24.360
<v Speaker 11>It'll be great to clear I think the government is

299
00:16:24.480 --> 00:16:30.960
<v Speaker 11>way too big, and and the health issues that Kennedy

300
00:16:31.000 --> 00:16:33.200
<v Speaker 11>will bring, I think those are all good things. And

301
00:16:33.440 --> 00:16:34.200
<v Speaker 11>so there you go.

302
00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:36.519
<v Speaker 2>Hey, appreciate the cause yes, you and your family.

303
00:16:36.600 --> 00:16:39.440
<v Speaker 11>I think you show you do good stuff real quick.

304
00:16:39.480 --> 00:16:43.320
<v Speaker 11>One quick dad joke for you. Okay, a pair of

305
00:16:43.399 --> 00:16:47.240
<v Speaker 11>jumper cables going to a bar. Bar just says okay,

306
00:16:47.279 --> 00:16:49.279
<v Speaker 11>you can come in, but don't start anything.

307
00:16:50.120 --> 00:16:52.080
<v Speaker 2>I love it. I love it. Thank you Richard, We

308
00:16:52.559 --> 00:16:55.559
<v Speaker 2>love we love Richard great ideas. He had suggested the

309
00:16:55.639 --> 00:16:58.279
<v Speaker 2>name Beyond the Obvious for this show, which it took

310
00:16:58.360 --> 00:17:01.639
<v Speaker 2>us a great compliment, very much pre so you know,

311
00:17:01.720 --> 00:17:04.599
<v Speaker 2>I think, yes, dose is a great thing, and need

312
00:17:04.640 --> 00:17:06.599
<v Speaker 2>to go out and save all those billions and try

313
00:17:06.599 --> 00:17:09.920
<v Speaker 2>to create a new mindset of actually treating the money

314
00:17:10.079 --> 00:17:12.799
<v Speaker 2>like it's it is what it is right, which is

315
00:17:12.839 --> 00:17:15.880
<v Speaker 2>our money, hard working people who hand them those dollars.

316
00:17:16.839 --> 00:17:20.000
<v Speaker 2>And because we have to and we're good Americans, we

317
00:17:20.079 --> 00:17:23.279
<v Speaker 2>follow the law. But I think the far greater value

318
00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:26.240
<v Speaker 2>in terms of the pocketbook of each and every American

319
00:17:26.880 --> 00:17:31.000
<v Speaker 2>is going to come from the overall influence of Elon Musk.

320
00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:34.119
<v Speaker 2>I just think the more super smart people you can

321
00:17:34.160 --> 00:17:38.240
<v Speaker 2>get in government who've actually been successful in the real

322
00:17:38.279 --> 00:17:41.240
<v Speaker 2>life business world, the better. Not that each and every

323
00:17:41.279 --> 00:17:43.279
<v Speaker 2>one is going to be useful to you, because it

324
00:17:43.319 --> 00:17:45.920
<v Speaker 2>depends on what their values are and everything else. But

325
00:17:46.000 --> 00:17:47.720
<v Speaker 2>I think Musk is going to turn out to be

326
00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:51.799
<v Speaker 2>just a tremendous influence on policy overall. And I'm sure

327
00:17:51.799 --> 00:17:53.559
<v Speaker 2>there are some things I disagree with them on, but

328
00:17:54.599 --> 00:17:58.200
<v Speaker 2>I think he's going to be awesome. Let me squeeze

329
00:17:58.200 --> 00:17:59.680
<v Speaker 2>this in from rfk jor.

330
00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:04.960
<v Speaker 12>Since two thousand and five, I's been thirty minutes praying

331
00:18:05.640 --> 00:18:08.720
<v Speaker 12>every day when I get out of bed, and my

332
00:18:09.000 --> 00:18:14.519
<v Speaker 12>prayer is this, I ask God for nineteen years to

333
00:18:14.640 --> 00:18:18.079
<v Speaker 12>put me in a position where I could end the

334
00:18:18.160 --> 00:18:21.240
<v Speaker 12>chronic disease epidemic and bring.

335
00:18:21.119 --> 00:18:25.359
<v Speaker 2>Help back to our children. And I don't doubt for

336
00:18:25.440 --> 00:18:27.839
<v Speaker 2>one second that every word he said is just true.

337
00:18:28.319 --> 00:18:31.079
<v Speaker 2>But it also tells me that he knows abortion is wrong,

338
00:18:31.400 --> 00:18:34.000
<v Speaker 2>and that, like so many Democrats, he's just decided he's

339
00:18:34.039 --> 00:18:35.680
<v Speaker 2>going to put up with it so he can get

340
00:18:35.720 --> 00:18:36.400
<v Speaker 2>and keep power.

341
00:18:39.519 --> 00:18:41.920
<v Speaker 6>You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.

342
00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:44.440
<v Speaker 2>Ever tell you my stick story? And don't worry, I

343
00:18:44.440 --> 00:18:46.440
<v Speaker 2>won't tell it to you. Now? Did I ever tell

344
00:18:46.440 --> 00:18:46.960
<v Speaker 2>you that story?

345
00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:47.119
<v Speaker 4>Oh?

346
00:18:47.200 --> 00:18:49.759
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, Okay, You've had some brushes with some big time

347
00:18:49.880 --> 00:18:52.839
<v Speaker 10>musical artists in between them and the who oh.

348
00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:55.200
<v Speaker 2>Lots of them? Yeah, lots, but yeah, Styx. That was

349
00:18:55.359 --> 00:18:58.400
<v Speaker 2>really special because I was in the seminary and we

350
00:18:58.400 --> 00:19:03.200
<v Speaker 2>weren't known for like hosting a lot of dances or concerts.

351
00:19:04.119 --> 00:19:06.720
<v Speaker 2>So I walked into Father Fahee's office. He was the director.

352
00:19:06.759 --> 00:19:09.799
<v Speaker 2>I was student body president. Said Father, I think we

353
00:19:09.839 --> 00:19:13.799
<v Speaker 2>should have a dance. You know, there's a band down

354
00:19:13.839 --> 00:19:15.799
<v Speaker 2>the block. There's a band on the next block, a

355
00:19:15.839 --> 00:19:18.839
<v Speaker 2>lot of people like him, and we can raise money

356
00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:21.200
<v Speaker 2>for I can't remember what cause we were raising money for,

357
00:19:21.319 --> 00:19:25.119
<v Speaker 2>but it was very worthy cause. And father, you know,

358
00:19:25.240 --> 00:19:27.400
<v Speaker 2>we got long well he trusted me. He said, okay, yeah,

359
00:19:27.559 --> 00:19:29.000
<v Speaker 2>just you know, as long as you can set it

360
00:19:29.079 --> 00:19:33.000
<v Speaker 2>up and get it organized. So Styx had grown up

361
00:19:33.440 --> 00:19:36.200
<v Speaker 2>down on Colon, further down Colon, yes, believe it or not,

362
00:19:36.240 --> 00:19:39.640
<v Speaker 2>our street was named Colon, And so we got sticks

363
00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:44.160
<v Speaker 2>and we had thousands and thousands of people who couldn't

364
00:19:44.160 --> 00:19:46.920
<v Speaker 2>even get into the school. Raised a lot of money

365
00:19:46.960 --> 00:19:49.759
<v Speaker 2>for whatever our cause was. But I'll never forget just

366
00:19:49.799 --> 00:19:52.640
<v Speaker 2>sitting there in my high school gym thinking this is surreal,

367
00:19:53.440 --> 00:19:56.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, as they opened the show with that theme

368
00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:59.240
<v Speaker 2>song and then went into Lady and stuff like that,

369
00:19:59.279 --> 00:20:01.400
<v Speaker 2>it was really cool. So hopefully we'll get some Lady

370
00:20:01.400 --> 00:20:05.039
<v Speaker 2>Bumper music here soon, let's go to beautiful Colorado Springs.

371
00:20:05.559 --> 00:20:07.720
<v Speaker 2>Talk to a Warren. You're on the Dan Kapla Show.

372
00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:08.319
<v Speaker 2>Welcome Warren.

373
00:20:09.079 --> 00:20:11.440
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, Dan, once again, I got a couple of questions

374
00:20:11.440 --> 00:20:13.400
<v Speaker 13>for you. But before I asked the question that we'll

375
00:20:13.440 --> 00:20:14.920
<v Speaker 13>let you know what I was happy about the way

376
00:20:14.960 --> 00:20:18.440
<v Speaker 13>the election tour, he springing about ninety percent of everybody

377
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:20.799
<v Speaker 13>I know was happy the way elections turned out.

378
00:20:20.920 --> 00:20:23.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, and that's why I mean there is a

379
00:20:23.519 --> 00:20:27.240
<v Speaker 2>new coalition now, so you know, there's more happiness in

380
00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:31.640
<v Speaker 2>America because his victory was was spread across a lot

381
00:20:31.680 --> 00:20:35.200
<v Speaker 2>of different groups in our society. It's really a cool thing, Warren.

382
00:20:35.279 --> 00:20:37.000
<v Speaker 2>I know you probably called the talk.

383
00:20:37.160 --> 00:20:41.680
<v Speaker 13>Ukraine, right, and well, yeah, there's two questions the core

384
00:20:41.799 --> 00:20:44.319
<v Speaker 13>of the Internet. Well, first of all, the Warsaw Pact

385
00:20:44.440 --> 00:20:47.720
<v Speaker 13>dissolved in Teborluary of nineteen ninety one, but in the

386
00:20:47.759 --> 00:20:51.839
<v Speaker 13>Eastern Europe corner of the internet before, like in the

387
00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:53.400
<v Speaker 13>midute during the Cold War Wars.

388
00:20:53.920 --> 00:20:56.079
<v Speaker 2>I've got to here. Here's why I have to stop you, okay,

389
00:20:56.119 --> 00:20:58.200
<v Speaker 2>because if it was you and me and we were

390
00:20:58.240 --> 00:21:00.119
<v Speaker 2>having a couple of beers and we were talking in

391
00:21:00.279 --> 00:21:07.440
<v Speaker 2>history I would enjoy it, but I'm sorry. I'd love

392
00:21:07.599 --> 00:21:11.200
<v Speaker 2>to the only reason I'm laughing is my wife's been

393
00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:13.599
<v Speaker 2>out of town, you know, ever since Election Day. She

394
00:21:13.680 --> 00:21:17.960
<v Speaker 2>fled the country, and you would think that I would

395
00:21:17.960 --> 00:21:21.279
<v Speaker 2>have had. All I'm saying is I am so busy

396
00:21:21.279 --> 00:21:24.160
<v Speaker 2>in my law practice right now. I don't think I've

397
00:21:24.200 --> 00:21:26.160
<v Speaker 2>watched a game while she's been out of town.

398
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:29.039
<v Speaker 13>Maybe the scene I apologize.

399
00:21:29.079 --> 00:21:31.759
<v Speaker 2>I am so just and I'm very happily busy in

400
00:21:31.799 --> 00:21:36.799
<v Speaker 2>my law practice right now. How old am I? You

401
00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:39.559
<v Speaker 2>mean the chronological age I kind of my driver's license

402
00:21:39.680 --> 00:21:44.640
<v Speaker 2>or my real age. No, I'm serious, because that number,

403
00:21:44.680 --> 00:21:49.440
<v Speaker 2>it's totally meaningless. Well, chronological age on the driver's license

404
00:21:49.519 --> 00:21:53.119
<v Speaker 2>is sixty seven. My functional age, like, if you were

405
00:21:53.160 --> 00:21:56.720
<v Speaker 2>to bring my PCP on right now doctor Levinson and

406
00:21:57.279 --> 00:21:59.640
<v Speaker 2>have him talk to you about test results and everything else,

407
00:22:00.279 --> 00:22:04.119
<v Speaker 2>my functional age is probably thirty four.

408
00:22:05.119 --> 00:22:08.839
<v Speaker 13>Well that's great, Yeah, I was. I was twenty two

409
00:22:08.920 --> 00:22:12.519
<v Speaker 13>years old when the Acuban dis crisis happened. I had relatives.

410
00:22:12.799 --> 00:22:14.559
<v Speaker 13>I lived in Los Angeles, I was raised in LA

411
00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:18.039
<v Speaker 13>and I had relatives that moved out into the desert.

412
00:22:18.200 --> 00:22:20.119
<v Speaker 13>So these people say that we're closer to the Third

413
00:22:20.160 --> 00:22:21.319
<v Speaker 13>World War than we've ever been.

414
00:22:21.519 --> 00:22:21.880
<v Speaker 5>A wrong.

415
00:22:22.000 --> 00:22:24.359
<v Speaker 13>We were closer then, well actually closer than we've been

416
00:22:24.400 --> 00:22:27.599
<v Speaker 13>since nineteen ninety one. But we're closer in nineteen sixty two,

417
00:22:27.680 --> 00:22:28.079
<v Speaker 13>believe me.

418
00:22:28.200 --> 00:22:30.319
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I remember it as a little kid. I remember it.

419
00:22:31.480 --> 00:22:33.799
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, yeah, well, how could we get together to have

420
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:34.200
<v Speaker 13>a beer?

421
00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:38.599
<v Speaker 2>So I sometimes as soon as things calm down, I

422
00:22:38.640 --> 00:22:40.559
<v Speaker 2>would love to do that. Do me a favorite for

423
00:22:40.599 --> 00:22:42.839
<v Speaker 2>would hold the line and just give Kelly your info

424
00:22:43.319 --> 00:22:48.759
<v Speaker 2>because I would love to do that it. Yeah, but

425
00:22:48.839 --> 00:22:51.400
<v Speaker 2>I did watch that buff game. By the way, Ryan's Terry.

426
00:22:51.680 --> 00:22:54.759
<v Speaker 2>Kelly was telling me, you can bet that Tyson fight tonight. Okay,

427
00:22:56.039 --> 00:22:57.680
<v Speaker 2>because well I don't know about that.

428
00:22:58.480 --> 00:23:00.920
<v Speaker 10>Our resident gambling expert, and I don't think he has

429
00:23:00.920 --> 00:23:03.920
<v Speaker 10>a personal problem with it. But Benjamin Albright over on KOA,

430
00:23:04.000 --> 00:23:07.680
<v Speaker 10>who is an intrepid reporter, he tells me that, yes,

431
00:23:07.799 --> 00:23:10.759
<v Speaker 10>you can place a bet on the fight. However, Big

432
00:23:10.799 --> 00:23:13.799
<v Speaker 10>caveat Colorado is not one of the states in which

433
00:23:13.799 --> 00:23:16.440
<v Speaker 10>you can do that. There are several states restricting betting

434
00:23:16.519 --> 00:23:20.359
<v Speaker 10>on the Tyson Paul fight, including Colorado, New York, and Pennsylvania.

435
00:23:20.799 --> 00:23:23.079
<v Speaker 10>I think it's because of its status, like you mentioned,

436
00:23:23.119 --> 00:23:25.880
<v Speaker 10>not a real fight as an exhibition rather than a

437
00:23:25.920 --> 00:23:26.640
<v Speaker 10>sanctioned fight.

438
00:23:26.720 --> 00:23:27.920
<v Speaker 6>And that's something a text or said.

439
00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:33.759
<v Speaker 2>I am a very very very controlled sports better right.

440
00:23:33.839 --> 00:23:35.839
<v Speaker 2>I don't bet big. I don't do this. I didn't

441
00:23:35.880 --> 00:23:39.079
<v Speaker 2>do that, but my betting average is very very good.

442
00:23:39.240 --> 00:23:42.240
<v Speaker 2>And I hope anybody who does have access to betting

443
00:23:42.279 --> 00:23:45.839
<v Speaker 2>this fight tonight does not take a thing I say

444
00:23:45.880 --> 00:23:49.400
<v Speaker 2>seriously about it. But I have never been more sure

445
00:23:49.960 --> 00:23:56.079
<v Speaker 2>a sporting event. Mike Tyson is a real boxer. And

446
00:23:56.119 --> 00:23:58.799
<v Speaker 2>I learned a lot about Mike Tyson covering his trial.

447
00:23:59.359 --> 00:24:01.119
<v Speaker 2>Funny thing. I'll go back to the phone lines in

448
00:24:01.160 --> 00:24:04.039
<v Speaker 2>a second, but what was so striking to me covering

449
00:24:04.039 --> 00:24:06.400
<v Speaker 2>that Tyson trial for NBC? And I was I was

450
00:24:07.039 --> 00:24:10.160
<v Speaker 2>in Indianapolis for the whole thing, and I was sitting

451
00:24:10.200 --> 00:24:12.839
<v Speaker 2>there in the courtroom just a short distance behind Tyson.

452
00:24:13.319 --> 00:24:16.319
<v Speaker 2>When he would talk with when he would talk with

453
00:24:16.400 --> 00:24:20.279
<v Speaker 2>his unentourage and his lawyers and everything else, it was

454
00:24:20.319 --> 00:24:25.200
<v Speaker 2>like you were talking to an English major, like perfect everything,

455
00:24:25.319 --> 00:24:29.480
<v Speaker 2>perfect grammar, perfect everything. He's a deep thinking guy all

456
00:24:29.559 --> 00:24:31.640
<v Speaker 2>in the way was so impressive. And then when he

457
00:24:31.920 --> 00:24:35.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, when you would hear him talk in other settings.

458
00:24:35.880 --> 00:24:37.839
<v Speaker 2>How about the clip I cut for you there, Oh yeah, here,

459
00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:40.200
<v Speaker 2>let me play them out. This is this is one

460
00:24:40.200 --> 00:24:43.480
<v Speaker 2>of the most interesting interviews ever. And while I disagree

461
00:24:43.519 --> 00:24:45.359
<v Speaker 2>with what Mike Tyson's saying, I want to play it

462
00:24:45.400 --> 00:24:45.960
<v Speaker 2>for you right now.

463
00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:47.079
<v Speaker 6>It's a young girl reporter.

464
00:24:47.319 --> 00:24:49.759
<v Speaker 2>That's why it's so interesting. It's one of these kid

465
00:24:49.799 --> 00:24:53.519
<v Speaker 2>reporter deals. So You've got this girl standing next to him.

466
00:24:53.519 --> 00:24:56.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm guessing she's ten or twelve, maybe thirteen or fourteen,

467
00:24:57.079 --> 00:25:01.640
<v Speaker 2>but it's a kid reporter, a child interviewing Mike Tyson

468
00:25:01.720 --> 00:25:03.240
<v Speaker 2>on the issue of legacy.

469
00:25:04.599 --> 00:25:06.880
<v Speaker 14>Well, in your return to the ring for this fight,

470
00:25:06.960 --> 00:25:09.880
<v Speaker 14>you are setting a monumental opportunity for kids my age

471
00:25:09.920 --> 00:25:12.839
<v Speaker 14>to see the legend Mike Tyson in the ring for

472
00:25:12.880 --> 00:25:15.680
<v Speaker 14>the first time. So, after such a successful career, what

473
00:25:15.720 --> 00:25:18.079
<v Speaker 14>type of legacy would you like to leave behind when

474
00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:19.119
<v Speaker 14>it's all said and done.

475
00:25:19.400 --> 00:25:20.039
<v Speaker 2>Well, I don't know.

476
00:25:20.039 --> 00:25:22.200
<v Speaker 15>I don't believe in the word legacy. I think that's

477
00:25:22.240 --> 00:25:26.000
<v Speaker 15>another word for ego. Legacy doesn't mean nothing. That's just

478
00:25:26.160 --> 00:25:29.359
<v Speaker 15>some word everybody grabbed on to. Some one said that word,

479
00:25:29.400 --> 00:25:31.440
<v Speaker 15>and everyone grabbed on the words, and I was used

480
00:25:31.480 --> 00:25:32.599
<v Speaker 15>every five seconds.

481
00:25:32.799 --> 00:25:35.279
<v Speaker 2>It means absolutely nothing to me. I'm just passing through.

482
00:25:35.319 --> 00:25:38.480
<v Speaker 15>I'm gonna die and it's going to be over. Who

483
00:25:38.519 --> 00:25:42.400
<v Speaker 15>cares about a legacy after that? What a big ego?

484
00:25:42.440 --> 00:25:43.960
<v Speaker 15>So I'm gonna die. I want people to think that

485
00:25:43.960 --> 00:25:46.559
<v Speaker 15>I'm this, I'm great, I'm not wain nothing. Well, you're

486
00:25:46.640 --> 00:25:52.200
<v Speaker 15>dead with dust, absolutely nothing. Our legacy is nothing.

487
00:25:52.440 --> 00:25:54.640
<v Speaker 2>A look at her face. Well, thank you so much

488
00:25:54.640 --> 00:25:55.279
<v Speaker 2>for sharing that.

489
00:25:55.279 --> 00:25:57.960
<v Speaker 14>That is something that I have not heard before someone

490
00:25:58.039 --> 00:25:58.880
<v Speaker 14>say that as answered.

491
00:25:59.119 --> 00:26:01.200
<v Speaker 15>Can you really imagine? And somebody say I want my

492
00:26:01.279 --> 00:26:04.599
<v Speaker 15>legacy to be this way when I get dead? Well

493
00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:06.720
<v Speaker 15>you want to think point, I really want to think

494
00:26:06.759 --> 00:26:08.200
<v Speaker 15>about you.

495
00:26:08.240 --> 00:26:09.839
<v Speaker 5>How was that that thing?

496
00:26:10.160 --> 00:26:11.920
<v Speaker 2>I want you to think about me when I'm gone?

497
00:26:11.960 --> 00:26:14.319
<v Speaker 2>Who the kids about me when I'm gone?

498
00:26:14.839 --> 00:26:15.039
<v Speaker 5>Oh?

499
00:26:15.039 --> 00:26:19.799
<v Speaker 2>My kids named grandkids. It was so interesting because the

500
00:26:20.599 --> 00:26:22.480
<v Speaker 2>young girl handled it so well.

501
00:26:22.599 --> 00:26:22.960
<v Speaker 6>She did.

502
00:26:23.640 --> 00:26:25.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was You've got to see the video when

503
00:26:25.599 --> 00:26:29.440
<v Speaker 2>you get home tonight. It was really striking and your point, Ryan,

504
00:26:29.720 --> 00:26:32.599
<v Speaker 2>It did bring back some memories about Tyson and just

505
00:26:32.799 --> 00:26:34.759
<v Speaker 2>being around him in the courtroom and listening to talk

506
00:26:34.839 --> 00:26:38.200
<v Speaker 2>to his group because he was so thoughtful. Listen, I

507
00:26:38.240 --> 00:26:40.759
<v Speaker 2>think he was properly convicted of rape. I think he

508
00:26:40.839 --> 00:26:43.839
<v Speaker 2>did rape. Desiree was Washington. I think what happened was

509
00:26:44.720 --> 00:26:48.400
<v Speaker 2>he believed it was consensual, but it definitely was not.

510
00:26:49.200 --> 00:26:52.839
<v Speaker 2>And I think he believed it was consensual because there

511
00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:57.359
<v Speaker 2>were individual days where he would sleep with ten, fifteen,

512
00:26:57.440 --> 00:27:00.920
<v Speaker 2>twenty women and you know there was I mean, and

513
00:27:01.000 --> 00:27:03.000
<v Speaker 2>this is documented in one of the books as well,

514
00:27:03.079 --> 00:27:06.440
<v Speaker 2>that you know, there was one day sleup to almost

515
00:27:06.440 --> 00:27:09.119
<v Speaker 2>thirty women in a day, and so, you know, women

516
00:27:09.160 --> 00:27:12.119
<v Speaker 2>often wanted to be with him, and he just assumed

517
00:27:12.160 --> 00:27:15.640
<v Speaker 2>when she came out to meet him at the limo,

518
00:27:15.720 --> 00:27:19.240
<v Speaker 2>she'd been up in her hotel room and then they

519
00:27:19.279 --> 00:27:23.079
<v Speaker 2>had met somewhere and you know, he it's about eleven

520
00:27:23.200 --> 00:27:25.400
<v Speaker 2>thirty midnight, and she said, yeah, I'll come out, and

521
00:27:25.799 --> 00:27:29.400
<v Speaker 2>he said, we're's something loose and that was all undisputed,

522
00:27:29.440 --> 00:27:31.160
<v Speaker 2>and she came out and jumped in the limo. He

523
00:27:31.240 --> 00:27:34.480
<v Speaker 2>took that as consent. Just in his life, he thought

524
00:27:34.519 --> 00:27:37.720
<v Speaker 2>that was consent. There's no way this young girl was

525
00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:42.880
<v Speaker 2>consenting or intended to consent. So yeah, so that's why

526
00:27:42.920 --> 00:27:45.400
<v Speaker 2>he got convicted. But I think he really believed it

527
00:27:45.519 --> 00:27:46.400
<v Speaker 2>was consensual.

528
00:27:46.839 --> 00:27:48.920
<v Speaker 10>One final note here, as we go to break Beagemin

529
00:27:48.960 --> 00:27:53.000
<v Speaker 10>Albright said the following about this betting he said, Honestly,

530
00:27:53.160 --> 00:27:55.599
<v Speaker 10>I wager a lot, and I wouldn't wager on that

531
00:27:56.079 --> 00:27:59.359
<v Speaker 10>fight in quotes fight, but I don't think that any

532
00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:01.720
<v Speaker 10>entity should be able to block what any American wants

533
00:28:01.759 --> 00:28:03.400
<v Speaker 10>to wager on. It's their money and they should be

534
00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:04.359
<v Speaker 10>able to do what they want.

535
00:28:04.599 --> 00:28:06.799
<v Speaker 2>Well, the only reason I would bet on that fight

536
00:28:06.839 --> 00:28:09.039
<v Speaker 2>if I could, is knowing what I know about Tyson

537
00:28:09.319 --> 00:28:12.160
<v Speaker 2>and then you just hearing them in that interview, you

538
00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:15.000
<v Speaker 2>think he's going in tonight to do anything other than

539
00:28:15.079 --> 00:28:17.319
<v Speaker 2>be a champion fighter. And as everybody knows, it is

540
00:28:17.359 --> 00:28:20.599
<v Speaker 2>a true science when it's done right. He was a scientist.

541
00:28:20.759 --> 00:28:24.559
<v Speaker 2>He was a killer, yeah, but also abramsk scientist. I

542
00:28:24.599 --> 00:28:26.759
<v Speaker 2>know we have to hit this break back in a flash.

543
00:28:26.839 --> 00:28:29.039
<v Speaker 2>Oh new press secretary just got named. You're on the

544
00:28:29.079 --> 00:28:30.119
<v Speaker 2>Dan Kapla Show.

545
00:28:31.960 --> 00:28:34.359
<v Speaker 6>And now back to the Dankapla Show podcast.

546
00:28:35.039 --> 00:28:38.160
<v Speaker 2>I was just texting with Tom Martine. He was talking

547
00:28:38.160 --> 00:28:41.680
<v Speaker 2>about how he had interviewed Styx as a young reporter,

548
00:28:42.599 --> 00:28:45.039
<v Speaker 2>and I just as we were sitting there, I flashed

549
00:28:45.079 --> 00:28:48.200
<v Speaker 2>back and it's probably nineteen seventy five and I'm in

550
00:28:48.279 --> 00:28:51.799
<v Speaker 2>the seminary and I'm student body president. I talked Father

551
00:28:51.839 --> 00:28:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Faye and letting us have a local band. Guys who

553
00:28:58.359 --> 00:29:01.160
<v Speaker 2>come in and it just happened to be. And how

554
00:29:01.200 --> 00:29:03.359
<v Speaker 2>weird to see them. I can picture man like it

555
00:29:03.400 --> 00:29:07.359
<v Speaker 2>was lunchtime today, you know, just just singing lady. I

556
00:29:07.359 --> 00:29:09.200
<v Speaker 2>think it was Dennis de Young was that his name?

557
00:29:09.319 --> 00:29:12.480
<v Speaker 2>Singing lady right there? It's right in our gym. It

558
00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:19.000
<v Speaker 2>was phenomenal and a heck of a fundraiser. Christopher Eng Sorry,

559
00:29:19.000 --> 00:29:22.759
<v Speaker 2>youry know that they listened to. None of us are

560
00:29:22.759 --> 00:29:25.200
<v Speaker 2>going to make you know, but I'm Mike Tyson mode.

561
00:29:25.240 --> 00:29:29.079
<v Speaker 2>Now Hey, we're all ashes dashes dust to dust or

562
00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:32.839
<v Speaker 2>Chris Berman, We're all day to day. Hey, Christopher, are

563
00:29:32.839 --> 00:29:35.079
<v Speaker 2>you doing? Sorry I coughed in your ear there.

564
00:29:35.559 --> 00:29:39.000
<v Speaker 4>Not at all, Dan, Hey, just calling to let you

565
00:29:39.039 --> 00:29:41.799
<v Speaker 4>know some of the I don't want to get political,

566
00:29:41.960 --> 00:29:46.000
<v Speaker 4>I'm an independent, but some of the unintended baby consequences

567
00:29:47.200 --> 00:29:51.319
<v Speaker 4>of the new term. I work as an appoyment specialist.

568
00:29:51.960 --> 00:29:56.440
<v Speaker 4>I helped disable people get and retain employment up here

569
00:29:56.480 --> 00:30:00.519
<v Speaker 4>in the greedy Evans area. Cool and yeah, I've been

570
00:30:00.559 --> 00:30:02.240
<v Speaker 4>doing it ten years here and I did it eight

571
00:30:02.319 --> 00:30:06.119
<v Speaker 4>years in Florida. Previously, I've been an educator special ed

572
00:30:06.160 --> 00:30:07.440
<v Speaker 4>and social work, mental life.

573
00:30:07.480 --> 00:30:14.599
<v Speaker 5>So it's one. Oh, I love it. But I just

574
00:30:14.640 --> 00:30:18.240
<v Speaker 5>wanted to mention that I work under the Colorado Department

575
00:30:18.240 --> 00:30:22.519
<v Speaker 5>of Labor Division of Vocational Rehabilitation. We are all private

576
00:30:22.599 --> 00:30:26.319
<v Speaker 5>contractors because obviously they want to save money on pensions

577
00:30:27.759 --> 00:30:31.640
<v Speaker 5>and they're like, you know, benefits. So yeah, we actually

578
00:30:31.680 --> 00:30:34.799
<v Speaker 5>get people off the dole and on the tax wols.

579
00:30:34.880 --> 00:30:35.880
<v Speaker 4>Cool.

580
00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:40.119
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but one of the problems is over seventy percent

581
00:30:40.160 --> 00:30:45.119
<v Speaker 5>of our funding comes from the United States Department of Education.

582
00:30:45.279 --> 00:30:49.039
<v Speaker 2>Okay, and you're so you're concern that's about to end.

583
00:30:49.960 --> 00:30:53.480
<v Speaker 5>We are our livelihood. I'm fifty five years old.

584
00:30:53.559 --> 00:30:55.839
<v Speaker 4>You know this was going to be it till I retire.

585
00:30:56.160 --> 00:31:00.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and I just unintended consequence.

586
00:31:00.079 --> 00:31:02.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, yeah, no, no, no, no, you're right, And I get

587
00:31:02.400 --> 00:31:07.440
<v Speaker 2>the concern, Christopher. I would have to believe that if

588
00:31:07.599 --> 00:31:11.680
<v Speaker 2>President Trump is successful in getting rid of Department of Education,

589
00:31:12.599 --> 00:31:16.440
<v Speaker 2>that it's not going to happen overnight, and that there

590
00:31:16.799 --> 00:31:19.319
<v Speaker 2>there are going to be provisions in place to make

591
00:31:19.359 --> 00:31:22.359
<v Speaker 2>sure that essential programs and your sure sounds like one

592
00:31:23.039 --> 00:31:25.519
<v Speaker 2>you know, are protected. I mean, listen, what does Trump

593
00:31:25.799 --> 00:31:28.039
<v Speaker 2>really want at the end of the day, he wants

594
00:31:28.079 --> 00:31:32.000
<v Speaker 2>to go down with among the great American presidents and

595
00:31:32.000 --> 00:31:37.039
<v Speaker 2>and he he right, and economy is very high on

596
00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:40.119
<v Speaker 2>the list there, and so he's going to be very

597
00:31:40.119 --> 00:31:45.000
<v Speaker 2>smart about the impact that his actions have on the economy.

598
00:31:45.599 --> 00:31:47.200
<v Speaker 2>And then I don't know you and I don't I

599
00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:48.880
<v Speaker 2>don't know the details of what you describe, but what

600
00:31:49.039 --> 00:31:53.160
<v Speaker 2>you describe sounds wonderful and essential and something that's that's

601
00:31:53.720 --> 00:31:57.359
<v Speaker 2>very important to a healthy economy. So I get the concern,

602
00:31:57.440 --> 00:32:00.559
<v Speaker 2>believe me, but I'm I'm optimistic. Isn't going to be

603
00:32:00.599 --> 00:32:04.960
<v Speaker 2>any sudden shock there it speaking of sudden shock, not

604
00:32:05.079 --> 00:32:09.440
<v Speaker 2>one here with the new press secretary, new press secretary

605
00:32:09.480 --> 00:32:11.200
<v Speaker 2>just announcing, there was talk about, Hey, would it be

606
00:32:11.240 --> 00:32:14.720
<v Speaker 2>Tucker Carlson, Would it be Atlanta Haba, his attorney, would

607
00:32:14.720 --> 00:32:18.839
<v Speaker 2>it be Megan Kelly? In fact, it's going to be

608
00:32:19.079 --> 00:32:21.880
<v Speaker 2>Caroline with A K levitt L E A V I

609
00:32:22.000 --> 00:32:25.839
<v Speaker 2>T T. You've seen her before she was press secretary.

610
00:32:25.839 --> 00:32:27.799
<v Speaker 2>There were several who filled the role, but she was

611
00:32:27.799 --> 00:32:31.599
<v Speaker 2>the main one during the campaign. And yeah, I mean

612
00:32:31.759 --> 00:32:37.680
<v Speaker 2>very solid, smart, articulate, physically attractive. Yeah, So I'd say

613
00:32:37.720 --> 00:32:42.920
<v Speaker 2>a conventional kind of pick for Press secretary and nothing

614
00:32:42.960 --> 00:32:46.119
<v Speaker 2>wrong with that. And again Trump nosary can trust her,

615
00:32:46.240 --> 00:32:49.359
<v Speaker 2>she's been in battle with him. But that's the development

616
00:32:49.480 --> 00:32:55.119
<v Speaker 2>there today. Doug burgham obviously Interior. Yeah, I mean, there's

617
00:32:55.200 --> 00:32:58.519
<v Speaker 2>no question that's a great pick. I know we haven't

618
00:32:58.559 --> 00:33:01.839
<v Speaker 2>talked about Gates since the beginning of the show today.

619
00:33:01.839 --> 00:33:05.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure we will before the end. Even though you

620
00:33:05.279 --> 00:33:08.160
<v Speaker 2>know there aren't going to be any big developments on

621
00:33:08.200 --> 00:33:12.000
<v Speaker 2>that today. You know we may know more by Monday. Obviously,

622
00:33:12.000 --> 00:33:15.759
<v Speaker 2>they're trying to force release of that House Ethics Committee report.

623
00:33:15.839 --> 00:33:19.799
<v Speaker 2>Big question that, right is Hey, if in fact an

624
00:33:19.880 --> 00:33:23.200
<v Speaker 2>underline if innocent until proven guilty and they didn't charge him,

625
00:33:23.559 --> 00:33:27.440
<v Speaker 2>If in fact he had sex with an underage girl

626
00:33:27.519 --> 00:33:29.799
<v Speaker 2>and took her across state lines as part of that,

627
00:33:31.519 --> 00:33:34.359
<v Speaker 2>all of that, then then yeah, I think he'd be

628
00:33:34.400 --> 00:33:37.880
<v Speaker 2>disqualified and he couldn't be ag Short of that, I

629
00:33:37.920 --> 00:33:41.680
<v Speaker 2>expect to be confirmed. But eight FI five five two

630
00:33:41.759 --> 00:33:44.599
<v Speaker 2>five five text d A N five seven seven through nine. Hey,

631
00:33:44.640 --> 00:33:47.279
<v Speaker 2>all these ads we see, all these ads we see

632
00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:51.400
<v Speaker 2>for big pharmas stuff on TV? Should they go away?

633
00:33:51.480 --> 00:33:55.000
<v Speaker 2>Should they be ended? With RFK Junior coming in Health

634
00:33:55.039 --> 00:33:58.119
<v Speaker 2>and Human Services that a big question because he's talked

635
00:33:58.119 --> 00:34:01.720
<v Speaker 2>about wanting to do that, so you think we'd all

636
00:34:01.720 --> 00:34:03.839
<v Speaker 2>be better off? And could it be legally done to

637
00:34:03.920 --> 00:34:05.680
<v Speaker 2>just say no, those can't AIRR on TV. You're on

638
00:34:05.720 --> 00:34:06.720
<v Speaker 2>the Dan Kaepla Show.
