Speaker 1: Get ready for here tell me it that October twenty five,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty.
Speaker 2: Four, allegedly according to that thing we call a calendar,
Speaker 2: and it's Friday night.
Speaker 1: I know I've gone to air late, but here we are.
Speaker 2: And oh, by the way, my regular co host is
Speaker 2: not with me. So I offered it to three people.
Speaker 2: Thus far, I've got two of them to show up.
Speaker 2: And this is fun anyway. Yeah, it's the Friday night
Speaker 2: call in show. So the open mic is live and loud.
Speaker 2: If you're hearing us around fourteen minutes past the hour,
Speaker 2: okay of eight pm here in the eastern part of
Speaker 2: what we used to call the United States. If you're
Speaker 2: hearing us, then on Friday, the twenty fifth of October,
Speaker 2: according to as the Greek would say, the Pope's work schedule.
Speaker 2: But and you know what, I agree, it is the
Speaker 2: pope's work schedule. It is the fictition calendar, but it
Speaker 2: is the one we use anyway. October twenty five and
Speaker 2: almost quarter after eight here on that day in twenty
Speaker 2: twenty four.
Speaker 1: That's the year.
Speaker 2: If you're hearing us there, you can call in and
Speaker 2: become part of the show. Three one nine five two
Speaker 2: seven five zero one, six, three, one nine, five, two seven,
Speaker 2: five zero one six and you know what, we might
Speaker 2: even have another co host join us. Plus as we
Speaker 2: go to air, the World Series Game one is being
Speaker 2: played and it's Yankees versus Dodgers.
Speaker 1: I'm sure you'll hear about that on the Uncle Show
Speaker 1: tomorrow night.
Speaker 2: And uh, look, I got a root against the Yankees
Speaker 2: no matter what.
Speaker 1: So there you have.
Speaker 2: It means I'm rooting for the Dodgers, but I'm not
Speaker 2: placing any money on that.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. I don't have any money. By the way,
Speaker 1: weird phenomena.
Speaker 2: In the private sector. I got to tell you now,
Speaker 2: I've got one, two, three, four five reports of people
Speaker 2: at their regular jobs that usually don't have problems, all
Speaker 2: of a sudden there's difficulties with payroll due to computer problems,
Speaker 2: due to something else, but their payroll not going through.
Speaker 2: Is this something? If you are having this problem, I
Speaker 2: want to hear from you, because I don't know. Is
Speaker 2: there something happening and nobody's reporting on it, wouldn't that
Speaker 2: shock you? But what is being reported currently well? As
Speaker 2: we go to air, Apparently Israel is attacking military targets
Speaker 2: in Tehran, Iran exactly the thing that I didn't want
Speaker 2: to see, especially amping up to.
Speaker 1: Just before the presidential selection.
Speaker 2: Oh, by the way, that's November fifth, So what do
Speaker 2: we got eleven days?
Speaker 1: Ten days left? Anyway, it is what it is. We
Speaker 1: got ten days left of the election proper. But the
Speaker 1: bitch fest is going to begin after.
Speaker 2: That, and nobody knows how long that one's going to go.
Speaker 1: What was the old thing? How low will you go?
Speaker 2: Anyway we can find out or you can participate in
Speaker 2: it be heard. Three one nine five two seven five
Speaker 2: zero one six one five two seven five zero one six.
Speaker 2: And that's the end of my opening rant because I
Speaker 2: got to get to my co hosts, and potentially another
Speaker 2: one will join us later for a segment as well.
Speaker 1: But uh, my temporary co host tonight because b Pete
Speaker 1: could not make it. I've got ready for this one too.
Speaker 2: Co hosts right now, uh, Captain Tripps and regular Joe.
Speaker 2: Now we're gonna see what each one of them has
Speaker 2: to say about whatever's on their mind, because hey, I
Speaker 2: got to check in with them and see where they
Speaker 2: want to go with this. But remember, the show is
Speaker 2: really about you who decide to call in, you who
Speaker 2: are brave enough to use that number three one nine
Speaker 2: five two seven five zero one six. Oh and by
Speaker 2: the bye, also less than a month, only three weeks away,
Speaker 2: I'm supposed to go to Dallas. Unless you know, nuclear
Speaker 2: war breaks out, then I think that, you know, conference
Speaker 2: might get pushed as another date. I don't know, but
Speaker 2: otherwise that's happening on the twenty second of November. It
Speaker 2: isn't Thanksgiving coming, and nobody's even talking about that. And
Speaker 2: usually we get the damp up to Thanksgiving. I guess
Speaker 2: nobody's giving thanks this year. I'm getting a little nervous
Speaker 2: with Israel attack in Iran, but maybe it's just me,
Speaker 2: and maybe some people are just nervous about the presidential
Speaker 2: selection and the aftermath that is due to follow it,
Speaker 2: because no matter who loses, there's going to be a
Speaker 2: bitch pest for sure. And oh, by the way, Trump
Speaker 2: served French fries from McDonald's, sort of because you know,
Speaker 2: since she allegedly didn't have a job, and he wanted
Speaker 2: to go there and say, well, I can work the
Speaker 2: French pribe machine for fifteen minutes, and he did. And
Speaker 2: my favorite quote from that whole thing, I thought that
Speaker 2: people just picked up the French fries with their hands
Speaker 2: and put them in the boxes. So I'm happy to
Speaker 2: learn that that's not true. Plus dancing to Abbe Maria
Speaker 2: and other weird songs almost like a gay cartoon character's
Speaker 2: funeral dirge was being played.
Speaker 1: You know, the music that they.
Speaker 2: Might play it awake for a gay cartoon character, including
Speaker 2: Abbe Maria, happening at Trump rallies now and other weird stuff.
Speaker 1: Plus is Kamala getting through to anybody? Oh? God help
Speaker 1: us all. This is the best we can do. Anyway,
Speaker 1: enough out of me.
Speaker 2: I want to hear from you three one nine, five
Speaker 2: two seven five zero one six, call in and join
Speaker 2: us for this. God knows what it's going to be. Like,
Speaker 2: I used my five minutes. My time has expired. So
Speaker 2: with a flip of the coin, I'm going to go
Speaker 2: to regular Joe first and see how he's doing as
Speaker 2: he stands in as co host on the Friday Night
Speaker 2: Open Mike Joe, how you doing tonight, man, and what
Speaker 2: do you got on your mind?
Speaker 3: Actually, Chuck, I'm doing great, probably better than I've been
Speaker 3: in twenty five years.
Speaker 1: A little worried to hear.
Speaker 3: About the attack going on in the Middle East, that's
Speaker 3: always concerning. Uh, And of course I think that in
Speaker 3: past shows, I've mentioned several times leave a ram alone,
Speaker 3: or you're going to blow the world up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know you and I have shared that view.
Speaker 2: Actually that well, look, no matter what screw up we
Speaker 2: just watched, or what nonsense or provocation we've just witnessed,
Speaker 2: at least they weren't dumb enough to involve Iran in
Speaker 2: anything more than rhetoric. Right, they were part of the
Speaker 2: access of evil and all that. But if they literally
Speaker 2: go poking at the bear that is Iran, there's going
Speaker 2: to be a problem. You and I have concurred on that.
Speaker 2: Although before we go there, let's talk about your positive mood,
Speaker 2: because you just went through a radical weight loss program,
Speaker 2: and you know I want to talk about that.
Speaker 1: I mean, how many pounds did you lose, Joe?
Speaker 3: I lost thirty pounds in about twenty four days.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, you lost a lot more than that,
Speaker 2: and it was it was faster, true, I mean, tell
Speaker 2: people how many pounds was it?
Speaker 4: All?
Speaker 5: In all?
Speaker 3: I lost thirty pounds of physical weight and one hundred
Speaker 3: and fifteen pounds of burden.
Speaker 1: Ah.
Speaker 2: Well, see, now what you were supposed to do is
Speaker 2: dryly set up that you had lost one hundred and
Speaker 2: fifteen pounds because you got rid of the wife put
Speaker 2: them bum Anyway, my joke was always that I lost
Speaker 2: three hundred pounds because my bitch was bigger. But you know,
Speaker 2: what are you gonna do? Not everybody decides to date
Speaker 2: white Godzilla and mine was six three and about three
Speaker 2: hundred pounds. So I said, yeah, I had great weight
Speaker 2: loss results. I lost three hundred pounds. What hell, helg
Speaker 2: I got divorced. Anyway, Joe, Sorry, I set up the
Speaker 2: joke and spoiled it because well you didn't follow up
Speaker 2: on it.
Speaker 1: But that's okay.
Speaker 2: You lost thirty pounds of good weight and then you
Speaker 2: lost one hundred and fifteen pounds of toxicity, so a
Speaker 2: lot of weight loss.
Speaker 1: In the regular Joe world. Anyway, What is on your mind? Literally, though,
Speaker 1: you don't have to go into the news.
Speaker 2: Just tell us what's on your mind? I mean, sunsets
Speaker 2: and hamburgers. What's happening? Pussy and vier talk?
Speaker 3: Brother, I just can't quit smiling. I'll be walking around
Speaker 3: at work and realize that I'm smiling like a goon
Speaker 3: and I don't even know why.
Speaker 6: And I try to stop doing it. It just makes me
Speaker 6: smile more.
Speaker 3: I'm getting cramps in my jaws from the perma grin
Speaker 3: that's on my face and I can't get rid of it,
Speaker 3: and I don't want to.
Speaker 2: I am so happy to hear this. He's smiling so
Speaker 2: hard it's starting to hurt. I love it. So you're
Speaker 2: just you're just so happy that you're stupid. At this point,
Speaker 2: not much is on your mind, and even the concern
Speaker 2: of possibly the world blowing up, you're like, well, at
Speaker 2: least I'm happy when it happens.
Speaker 6: That I knew that was coming anyway.
Speaker 3: It's it's not about, you know, the world blowing up,
Speaker 3: It's about how do you feel when it blows up?
Speaker 6: Because it's going too anyway?
Speaker 1: You know, there you go.
Speaker 6: You gotta go go with a smile. Something tells me,
Speaker 6: someone wrote something, tells me someone wrote a song about
Speaker 6: this back in the eighties.
Speaker 1: It does sound for me the world.
Speaker 6: As we know it, and I feel fine, it's.
Speaker 1: The end of the world as we know it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, regular Joe, that's the way it is with you
Speaker 2: and that voice you heard break in my other co host,
Speaker 2: At least for the beginning of the show, Captain trips.
Speaker 2: Don't you envy a regular Joe? Can you hear that
Speaker 2: ringing endorsement of divorce in his voice?
Speaker 6: I do, But I'm gonna I'm gonna chastise his ass
Speaker 6: because I texted him a while ago and I think
Speaker 6: the son of a bitch is still left me on read.
Speaker 6: Oh wow, it wasn't was it on Sky for my
Speaker 6: regular It was on your regular phone. I have a
Speaker 6: couple of numbers in there for you, so may have
Speaker 6: been the wrong one. I'm just I'm very glad to hear.
Speaker 6: I'm very glad to hear that your that that your
Speaker 6: weight loss has been successful on both ends.
Speaker 2: Yes, and suddenly you know, uh, Captain, Just for the record,
Speaker 2: I happen to personally know that his health has improved
Speaker 2: quite a bit.
Speaker 6: I'm sure it has, it really has.
Speaker 3: I only have to take my blood pressure man's like
Speaker 3: every two or three days, because if I take them
Speaker 3: every day, it drops too low and my heart rate
Speaker 3: gets down to like fifty beats a minutes.
Speaker 7: So I mean.
Speaker 6: Then you're probably pretty close to not needing them anymore.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what a little bit of an adjustment
Speaker 2: in diet and maybe a couple of other things and
Speaker 2: maybe you can flush those things permanently depending uh you know.
Speaker 1: I mean I would say be careful, but yeah, I.
Speaker 7: Think I think you can't.
Speaker 6: So I lost. I've lost the total of one hundred
Speaker 6: and thirty pounds since the end of twenty seventeen, and
Speaker 6: I take zero pharmaceuticals aside from you know, an allergy
Speaker 6: pill every once in a while or benadrul to go
Speaker 6: to sleep. Came off everything. So yeah, there, getting getting
Speaker 6: rid of all the excess weight and getting your getting
Speaker 6: yourself metabolically healthy, you will be able to come off
Speaker 6: that crap right. Maybe not right this second, but I
Speaker 6: mean you and I can you, and I can you
Speaker 6: and I can talk privately, I can I can probably
Speaker 6: help you this if you's something you're interested in, but
Speaker 6: we can. We can discuss that later.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was thinking about it too, And you know what,
Speaker 2: I know a lot about controlling the diet as well.
Speaker 2: So but start with trips and then I'll support him
Speaker 2: when he talks to you about stuff, Okay, because yeah,
Speaker 2: I think we can get you to stop having even
Speaker 2: deal with those meds at all, you know, depending on
Speaker 2: your lifestyle. I mean, look, if you're going to do
Speaker 2: things a little sloppy. Maybe you need to keep them
Speaker 2: a little while longer, but if you want.
Speaker 1: To get tight, you could probably do it.
Speaker 2: And you might as well, because the better you feel
Speaker 2: and the better you actually are health wise, the better
Speaker 2: you're going to look. And since you're going to be
Speaker 2: back on the market, brother man, I think you're going
Speaker 2: to want to look as good.
Speaker 1: As you feel.
Speaker 2: So let's try and work on that. Anyway, we know
Speaker 2: now what's on your mind. And for the record, Trips
Speaker 2: is not divorced. He didn't lose that weight that way.
Speaker 2: He lost it the old fashioned way and the non
Speaker 2: joky way. But that's okay. Always good to hear that
Speaker 2: your health is improving as well, and you're still into
Speaker 2: Santa Stans. So what's on your mind this week? Captain
Speaker 2: Tripps as.
Speaker 6: I am, I am, I am happy, happily in the
Speaker 6: Santa Stana and I'm almost I'm almost embarrassed to admit
Speaker 6: that I actually like a politician because watching him, especially
Speaker 6: over the last two months with these hurricanes. You know,
Speaker 6: I don't know what the stories are on the national news,
Speaker 6: but that guy had been on he was on the
Speaker 6: ground throughout the entire time. He took no shit. I
Speaker 6: don't know. There was a story that so before Milton
Speaker 6: came in, they were trying like mad to get the
Speaker 6: the debris that was left behind from Helene in southwest
Speaker 6: Florida because they you know, we thought, we thought Tampa
Speaker 6: Bay was going to take a direct hit. Thank got it.
Speaker 6: It ended up not. But so the I'm pretty sure
Speaker 6: it was like it was Penelas in Hillsborough County, so Tampa,
Speaker 6: Saint Petersburg, the local the local governments were refusing to
Speaker 6: allow people to take the debris to the dump sites. Now, meanwhile,
Speaker 6: this was this would have been sun Day, this would
Speaker 6: have been the weekend Milton hit on Thursday. There was
Speaker 6: a Thursday Wednesday nightionto Thursday. So basically Desantas sent the
Speaker 6: Fort Florida Highway Patrol and sent the Florida Highway Patrol
Speaker 6: and bust of the bust of the dumps open and
Speaker 6: told people bring your shit, I mean, because it made sense.
Speaker 6: You had a storm that at the time, you know,
Speaker 6: had it not lost you know, they thought it was
Speaker 6: going to lose power. Thankfully it did, but they were
Speaker 6: still looking at a possible strong Cat four and there
Speaker 6: was still debris all over the fricking place, and it
Speaker 6: would have I mean, had you'd have had projectiles worse
Speaker 6: than you already had, right, I mean, so, I mean,
Speaker 6: I know everybody, no, not everybody likes them. I get it,
Speaker 6: and I have my points of disagreement on him. But
Speaker 6: you know, he basically told and that the whole thing
Speaker 6: with Kamala Harris is just hysterical. So he just spoke
Speaker 6: about it yesterday.
Speaker 2: Well, okay, so let's let's put that aside for a moment,
Speaker 2: because you are the co host tonight. But I'm glad
Speaker 2: to hear about all this, and of course a little
Speaker 2: bit of practicality during a time like that is helpful.
Speaker 2: In fact, when I talk about Superstorm Sandy, which I
Speaker 2: lived through, and the follow up storm after that, which
Speaker 2: I don't even think had a name. It was just
Speaker 2: a nor'easter that came through was really the thing that
Speaker 2: crippled us after we had power outages for three weeks,
Speaker 2: and it was horrendous and you should go back and
Speaker 2: look at films of that because whole parts of New
Speaker 2: Jersey were.
Speaker 1: Literally underwater and that was not a normal thing.
Speaker 2: Like there's little islands that are on the coast of
Speaker 2: Jersey that a lot of people don't know about until
Speaker 2: storms come through, like Long Beach Island and Sandy Hook.
Speaker 2: Not the Sandy Hook where you know the shootings allegedly happened,
Speaker 2: didn't happen, blah blah blah. But there's a part of
Speaker 2: New Jersey that's called Sandy Hook that gets separated from
Speaker 2: the mainland every time there's a storm pretty much. And
Speaker 2: then there's things like Long Beach Island and stuff like that,
Speaker 2: and Seaside Heights, which is not part of the mainland directly.
Speaker 1: There's a little separation. And some of those little islands.
Speaker 2: Off of the coast of Jersey were literally gone, I mean,
Speaker 2: like most of the population wiped out.
Speaker 1: And all that. I mean, it was messed up what
Speaker 1: happened there. And then we got something that looked like
Speaker 1: a blizzard.
Speaker 2: So anyway, we've got callers and potentially another co host
Speaker 2: will join us at some point very soon.
Speaker 1: Here.
Speaker 2: Let's get to them, unless you unless either regularly ask
Speaker 2: in order first, regular Joe, is there anything urgently you
Speaker 2: want to cover before we get to callers.
Speaker 3: No, man, let's just go ahead and get the callers
Speaker 3: on the line.
Speaker 2: Actually, say Captain Tripps is there anything that you feel
Speaker 2: urgently must be added to the conversation before we get
Speaker 2: to the callers who should be the main feature of
Speaker 2: the show.
Speaker 6: Yeah, alrighty, go ahead and bring them on.
Speaker 2: In that case, let's take them in order, and again,
Speaker 2: you know, sorry if you get any delays here. I've
Speaker 2: got two callers on hold now, but I've got space
Speaker 2: for one hundred, so no problem. You can get on
Speaker 2: the line, get on hold and hear the show as
Speaker 2: it's happening while you wait. Okay, Three one nine five
Speaker 2: two seven five zero one six is the number to call.
Speaker 2: Three one nine five two seven five zero one six.
Speaker 2: And thankfully, my my, my throwing up every single day
Speaker 2: streak has been partially broken, but still having troubles with
Speaker 2: the guts.
Speaker 1: So if I do take a breakaway.
Speaker 2: From the mic, I've got two co hosts to manage
Speaker 2: things while I throw up in a waste BA basket.
Speaker 2: So we're all good tonight. Three one nine five two
Speaker 2: seven five zero one six. Let's go to the first
Speaker 2: caller who is at the nine one six area code
Speaker 2: and see what's on their mind on the Friday night
Speaker 2: open mic.
Speaker 1: Nine one six.
Speaker 2: You're live, and you're talking to co hosts Captain Trips
Speaker 2: and Regular Joe, and of course the loudmouth himself on
Speaker 2: the mic. Oh, Kelly, So how you doing tonight?
Speaker 7: I'm doing okay. Thank you for taking my call, and
Speaker 7: I appreciate you, Uh, the co hosts, what I what
Speaker 7: i'd like to, what I would like to.
Speaker 2: Before before you stammer into your point, hang on before
Speaker 2: you before you stammer into your point. And I appreciate
Speaker 2: that you stammering into it because it sounds like you
Speaker 2: thought I might keep you on hold a little longer.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: This is Danny from California, right.
Speaker 7: Correct, This is Danny from California.
Speaker 1: There you go.
Speaker 2: I wasn't going to identify your last name, but I
Speaker 2: wanted the listener to know who was speaking because you're
Speaker 2: about to go into a point that I think you
Speaker 2: spent a little bit of time thinking about.
Speaker 1: So go ahead, Danny, hit it anything you want. It's
Speaker 1: all up to you, and I restrict no discussion, So
Speaker 1: go ahead.
Speaker 7: Thank you so much. First, when I was last time
Speaker 7: we were chatting, there's still kind of got away with time,
Speaker 7: and I had some points and gave a lot of thought.
Speaker 7: First of all, when I relinked to my call to
Speaker 7: other callers. We were talking about my father and it
Speaker 7: happened to be one the last conversation I had had
Speaker 7: with him before he passed away from pancreatic cancer, and
Speaker 7: we're talking about his conservative politics. But he was also
Speaker 7: more printable than anything. And the last conversation we had
Speaker 7: and he would love to talk to politics, and it
Speaker 7: had to be with the twenty sixteen conversation, and the
Speaker 7: kind of remind me of Jimmy Carter. He was waiting
Speaker 7: to cast his vote. He was not going to vote
Speaker 7: for Trump. He was too principal. And I remember having
Speaker 7: a conversation I had got Dad why, and he goes,
Speaker 7: because of his morals, he goes, I got to vote
Speaker 7: for Johnson, the Libertarian. He goes, I just can't vote
Speaker 7: for somebody. And Dad, when you hear me now in
Speaker 7: your prayers, I'm so proud of because you were always
Speaker 7: the man of principal when it came to that way,
Speaker 7: and that has been reflected on myself.
Speaker 2: So your father maintained Your father maintained his principles until
Speaker 2: the very end, and it was about character in his mind.
Speaker 2: And you know what's sad about that, Danny, is that
Speaker 2: quite frankly, the majority of people that really saw the
Speaker 2: world that way, that really felt as though character was
Speaker 2: not just an issue, it was the issue. Indeed, the
Speaker 2: majority of those people are gone. I mean it is
Speaker 2: from the generation previous to X. And I forget how
Speaker 2: old you are, but I have a feeling you're closer
Speaker 2: to an X than a boomer. And quite frankly, that
Speaker 2: means that, you know, we got a little more flexible
Speaker 2: than the generation before us when it came to a
Speaker 2: moral character.
Speaker 1: But some of us used to believe in that too.
Speaker 2: And it's strange that he would still vote for Johnson
Speaker 2: because that was the year that Johnson went out and
Speaker 2: made some incoherent statements that really threw people off who
Speaker 2: were undecided, and still you could see his morality through
Speaker 2: his flubs. You could see what it was you were
Speaker 2: gonna get with Johnson, And even if you didn't think.
Speaker 1: He could win at all, there were a lot of
Speaker 1: people that were still willing to vote for the Libertarian candidate.
Speaker 2: And I got to tell you, I don't even know
Speaker 2: who the Libertarians are running this time. After that Weirdness
Speaker 2: convention that they threw where they invited RFK Junior and
Speaker 2: Trump both to the convention, which.
Speaker 1: I thought was really bizarre.
Speaker 2: And by the way, some of the rock ribbed, you know,
Speaker 2: never let it die. Libertarians had serious objections to allowing
Speaker 2: both of those guys to come in. And meanwhile, I
Speaker 2: feel quite vindicated since RFK Junior is now hawking his
Speaker 2: entire resources to have people join the Trump train because
Speaker 2: now he's on it. But anyway, I kind of knew
Speaker 2: he was working for that part of the equation and
Speaker 2: I didn't like it. And that's what I said a
Speaker 2: long time ago, and people said I was crazy, and
Speaker 2: nobody will tell me I was right now, so you know,
Speaker 2: it is what it is. Anyway, Danny, please continue though,
Speaker 2: Okay that story. What else is on your mind, sir?
Speaker 7: If he would have is he probably would have took
Speaker 7: more votes from Trump in twenty sixteen and you would
Speaker 7: have had President Clinton. I mean, that's just just my
Speaker 7: thoughts on it. But I was very proud of him
Speaker 7: because that was the man he was, That was the
Speaker 7: man I was raised with. I mean, he loved my mother.
Speaker 7: I mean I remember growing up two times when in
Speaker 7: talk insist him and he was so insulted, not because
Speaker 7: he was married, because he would insult my mother. I mean,
Speaker 7: that's just the type of man he was in it,
Speaker 7: and I feel like a lot of it is I'm
Speaker 7: still the same way, even though we are probably politically,
Speaker 7: I moved away from a lot of his politics. I
Speaker 7: still helped him to a lot of his moral character,
Speaker 7: and I'm very proud of that. That's number one. I'd
Speaker 7: also like to go into a whole other talkics that
Speaker 7: came up and I had a very long discussion and
Speaker 7: the date with my and if any way this message
Speaker 7: could get out to Sean O'Brien, the president, the team
Speaker 7: stays there any team strap that wants to call and
Speaker 7: chat with me anytime. I do have some messages about
Speaker 7: what we looked at as far as politics and as
Speaker 7: far as vacuument by brothers.
Speaker 2: Have the teamsters made a Hey, wait a minute, have
Speaker 2: the teamsters formally endorsed either candidate? Because last I looked,
Speaker 2: they had not come up with a formal endorsement.
Speaker 1: Go ahead.
Speaker 7: The national convention. Sean O'Brien can get And we were
Speaker 7: ing VP and Jimmy James were talking about polls, and
Speaker 7: I did take the poll. It was it was a
Speaker 7: scam poll that came from the teamsters because I'm a
Speaker 7: longtime number and I took the poll and I chose
Speaker 7: Kamala Harris. She got thirty eight percent. The Trump vote
Speaker 7: was fifty eight percent. I believe it was about four
Speaker 7: percent that was undecided. Now that pole could be accurate
Speaker 7: because that made the diehards are going to be the
Speaker 7: ones who are going to vote on the pole. I
Speaker 7: know that my brother here, there's a few that have
Speaker 7: Trump stickers, and I would say probably the majority of them.
Speaker 7: The guys that are are are probably going to vote
Speaker 7: for Trump, but they're not voting for him because their
Speaker 7: best interests of the fellow brothers in it. As far
Speaker 7: as teamsters or the economic historys, it's more of culture.
Speaker 7: I'm sixty two, so it's born in nineteen sixty two.
Speaker 7: The majority of the guys, especially since the consolidated the
Speaker 7: telecommunications down to just a handful of companies ran by billionaires,
Speaker 7: it's all been ripening radio and they've all been brainwashed.
Speaker 7: I mean, this is Global's planned. They've been brainwashed to
Speaker 7: believe that the Democrats or whatever they are, they're all
Speaker 7: evil and don't have their interests while them along the
Speaker 7: fact the europe has always stabbed labor on the back. Now,
Speaker 7: Sean O'Brien that Adwice. I talked to him when I
Speaker 7: was introduced to him when he was running for the
Speaker 7: Teamster president. I was introduced by our shop strout who
Speaker 7: brought him into our facility. So I was the one
Speaker 7: that voted in twenty sixteen. I did not vote for
Speaker 7: Joy Biden. I voted for Klie Hopkins. He was a
Speaker 7: Green Party candidate. Greeny's a your hired Teamster warehouse because
Speaker 7: I did it because of principal, because this was somebody
Speaker 7: that I could support and I could relate to. They
Speaker 7: was tell you this year I am I am being
Speaker 7: a vote for Kamala Harris. And I have multiple reasons why.
Speaker 7: One is is a lot of independent chapters in the
Speaker 7: teams to especially in the central Conference. I'm not in
Speaker 7: a cential conference. They've had financial problems for a long
Speaker 7: time and they got devastated in the two thousand and
Speaker 7: eight commandsion collapse, which the Republicans have supported this financial
Speaker 7: deregulation nonsense for decades. So they're the ones that ran
Speaker 7: a lot of your funds. Now on, Yes, there was
Speaker 7: mis management within the union. I knit it. Shan Brian
Speaker 7: Kamala Harris pas passing boat to protect and actually refund
Speaker 7: their She they got a bailable those teams. She's got
Speaker 7: a bailout. The independent locals have built with Sean O'Brien
Speaker 7: and have endorsed Kamala Harris. Now I understand what Sean
Speaker 7: O'Brien is, and if I ever get a hold of him,
Speaker 7: if he's out there, I will call him out. You
Speaker 7: did this for politics. I understand if you were a
Speaker 7: pun into the rank and file brothers of the Union.
Speaker 7: If they're stabbing in the back, they gave me something.
Speaker 7: I don't blame you for going out there and reaching
Speaker 7: out to the Republicans. He said, they want to be
Speaker 7: friends with flavor. But I'm going to give you a
Speaker 7: couple of facts. He mentioned two names. He mentioned Josh
Speaker 7: har Holly from Missouri as a friend Labor and JD Dance.
Speaker 7: I called Bourd Josh Holly and his at l CIO
Speaker 7: recularbility was thirteen percent. JD Dance daping Canada on this
Speaker 7: his record was he's zero. He talked about what you
Speaker 7: wanted to help tax credit for childcare. He said he
Speaker 7: was four. He skipped that vote. This guy's as charlottan
Speaker 7: and oliar. He's just like Adam Smith. I'm not Adam
Speaker 7: Schiff the California Center who I'm the lead flight. Because
Speaker 7: he's a liar and he's a Democrat. I would support him,
Speaker 7: But he's a liar. So does JD. Pants. So is
Speaker 7: Donald Trump. Then he sat there and with Elon Muss
Speaker 7: he sees financing a big portion whose candidacy in Pennsylvania
Speaker 7: said they were laughing because they were fire strikers. Well,
Speaker 7: guess what, I want to take a line to screw them.
Speaker 1: So there you go. I want to turn this one
Speaker 1: over to Captain Trips to handle.
Speaker 7: Uh.
Speaker 2: You got any comments about you know, labor, the teensters,
Speaker 2: any of this?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 1: And of course, Dan, I'm.
Speaker 6: Actually I'm actually going to defer this one. I don't
Speaker 6: I don't have any comments about labor. I'll put it
Speaker 6: on the record. I'm not a Donald Trump fan. I
Speaker 6: have my issues with Donald Trump. But let me just
Speaker 6: put it this way. I look at Donald Trump and
Speaker 6: the people that are surrounding him as a stopgap measure.
Speaker 6: I think anymore a time of the monsters that have
Speaker 6: been running this shit show since twenty twenty one is
Speaker 6: instant is just going to be Never have I had
Speaker 6: more problems in my life that that came directly from
Speaker 6: the federal government. Since fucking Joe Biden or whoever's running
Speaker 6: Joe Biden became president, I've had to relocate my family.
Speaker 6: I've had to go through financial hardship. I was about
Speaker 6: to lose my career because of Joe Biden and the
Speaker 6: shit he did. And part of it was this whatever
Speaker 6: the hell she is running for president now? Well ran personally,
Speaker 6: I don't have any problem with her specifically because I
Speaker 6: think she's just that's she's an empty mor Well, let
Speaker 6: me ask you something by someone else, just why Biden.
Speaker 2: Is Let's be specific about something though. What year did
Speaker 2: you actually move? Because you you you moved a few
Speaker 2: years back, So when.
Speaker 6: Did you actually move twenty twenty two.
Speaker 2: Twenty twenty two, so about two years after he runs
Speaker 2: and he takes office in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1: What month was.
Speaker 2: That that you left where you lived to move to Desanta,
Speaker 2: stan Florida For other people.
Speaker 6: May May twenty.
Speaker 2: Two, So what you're telling me is about a year
Speaker 2: after he takes office, a year and a couple of
Speaker 2: months you had to go. Weren't their conditions prevailing before
Speaker 2: that year. I mean, or everything was fine until.
Speaker 6: January everything was everything wasn't fine. I'm not I'm not saying,
Speaker 6: but the final straw was put into place now, and
Speaker 6: I have my criticisms of Trump over the whole COVID thing.
Speaker 6: Don't don't think I absolve him, because I've said a
Speaker 6: million times, you know, let's let's talk. I mean, one
Speaker 6: of the biggest problems with the whole COVID thing is
Speaker 6: this ridiculous inflation we're facing out that started under Donald
Speaker 6: Trump that did not start under Joe Biden, so that
Speaker 6: I'm fully aware of. It was Donald Trump that did
Speaker 6: the Operation Warps feed Bs, it was Donald Trump that
Speaker 6: declared the national emergency that allowed all this to happen.
Speaker 6: So trust me, I do not. I do not absolve
Speaker 6: Trump of guilt, but the people that took over after
Speaker 6: him put this shit on steroids.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: I was just looking for clarity on that position because
Speaker 2: I think it's necessary to note it. But since you're
Speaker 2: deferring most of this, I want to give Joe a
Speaker 2: chance to address it before we move on to anything else,
Speaker 2: if you don't mind, because maybe Joe has something to say.
Speaker 1: About labor and what's going on there.
Speaker 2: But then again he might defer and we'll have to
Speaker 2: go back to Danny quickly if that's the case. So, Joe,
Speaker 2: do you have anything you'd like to add to this
Speaker 2: discussion of organized excuse me organized late and you know,
Speaker 2: positions and how morality is moving things or are you
Speaker 2: just too happy to bother with letting your mind get
Speaker 2: involved in this?
Speaker 1: Joe?
Speaker 3: Actually, actually, something Danny said did stand out to me,
Speaker 3: and I want to salute his father for voting morality
Speaker 3: over party lines.
Speaker 1: Very good.
Speaker 3: I don't vote myself, I don't participate at all, but
Speaker 3: I do want to salute Danny's father because the politicians
Speaker 3: we have are devoid of morality, and the fact that
Speaker 3: he did not even though he was a conservative, he
Speaker 3: did not toe that party line.
Speaker 7: He didn't vote red or blue.
Speaker 3: He voted black or white.
Speaker 4: And I salute him for it.
Speaker 6: And then i'd act you like to agree and say
Speaker 6: the same thing. I agree. I agree. I think that's
Speaker 6: the character thing I think is big.
Speaker 2: I really do right, And whether you approve of his
Speaker 2: moral compass, necessarily here one thing you can at least
Speaker 2: salute is that there is one and he was using it.
Speaker 1: You know. That's the thing is.
Speaker 2: Even if you think to yourself, look, that's a wasted vote,
Speaker 2: or maybe I don't agree with Gary Johnson and his
Speaker 2: positions whatever, you would at least have to say, yeah,
Speaker 2: but the guy is still voting based on a principle
Speaker 2: that is definable, that is not just about this guy
Speaker 2: happens to make me feel better because he uses the
Speaker 2: right buzzwords, you know, or I get to make plenty
Speaker 2: of excuses for the imperfect instrument doing the job I
Speaker 2: want to see done.
Speaker 1: No, this is a question of does it match up?
Speaker 2: And you know, doesn't comport with my particular idea of
Speaker 2: what morality is. And oh, by the way, people used
Speaker 2: to think of presidents as somebody who was supposed to
Speaker 2: be exemplary to the youth and everything else. That old, crazy,
Speaker 2: hokey statement, what will children think if the president? But
Speaker 2: it sounds so stupid, but there was a point in
Speaker 2: time in recent hit history where people thought that way,
Speaker 2: where it was like, the president is somebody that is
Speaker 2: looked up to that children might aspire to follow in
Speaker 2: a way or whatever, and maybe we should say they
Speaker 2: should be I don't know role models.
Speaker 1: Now I disagree with the whole role model thing altogether.
Speaker 2: But the idea that that was one of the demands
Speaker 2: from the general public has evaporated, and it evaporated long
Speaker 2: before we got the Trump.
Speaker 6: But the thing is to do with a dress and
Speaker 6: a cigar.
Speaker 2: Well, you see, I think it started before then, because
Speaker 2: you know, people were looking for something, and the destruction
Speaker 2: of it, in a way, according to the naivete of
Speaker 2: the people at the time, probably started under Nixon, into
Speaker 2: my mind, unfairly, but still that's when it started. We
Speaker 2: have a completely corrupt president who went on years later
Speaker 2: on an interview with you know Frost there and said, hey, look,
Speaker 2: you know, even if it looks illegal, if the president
Speaker 2: does it, it isn't you know that who told us
Speaker 2: what the future was gonna hold, to be honest with you,
Speaker 2: was unfairly crucified by the people of the time, and
Speaker 2: you know, forced into resignation. And then you got President
Speaker 2: Ford out of that mix because Spiro Agnew had to
Speaker 2: go with his tax return issues or whatever.
Speaker 1: Right. But yeah, so that was a whole different thing
Speaker 1: that I think.
Speaker 2: Started the ball rolling with the people in this country saying, well,
Speaker 2: maybe morality is not something that we should be searching
Speaker 2: for in a candidate.
Speaker 1: Why is that?
Speaker 2: Well, folks, here's the unfortunate answer. Not really because the
Speaker 2: people of the United States changed, but because it was
Speaker 2: as though the menu on that particular restaurant's website happened
Speaker 2: to no longer include an option for a morality meal.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. There was no longer an
Speaker 2: option where somebody wasn't a scumbag on the ticket? Which
Speaker 2: one of these is a not scumbag? None, none of
Speaker 2: the above? Does that mean I should vote for none
Speaker 2: of the above? Or what is the famous thing? Pick
Speaker 2: a lesser of two evils? Okay, but I.
Speaker 3: Think yeah, definition evil, I want to add choosing the
Speaker 3: l evils, you're voting for evil.
Speaker 1: You you have still and evil.
Speaker 2: You said it's a lesser one, but you also said
Speaker 2: it's what evil.
Speaker 1: So yeah, there's that.
Speaker 2: And of course anybody should be saluted who actually makes
Speaker 2: a moral decision about something where they think morality counts
Speaker 2: and it doesn't matter if you agree with the morality.
Speaker 6: Yeah, go ahead, let me ask you a question only
Speaker 6: only it's off topic. But you brought up Nixon. Yeah,
Speaker 6: this is this is an era and you'll see why
Speaker 6: I'm asking you this question. This is an area that
Speaker 6: I think you'd be my best go to.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, but wait, Jimmy James is probably champing at
Speaker 2: the bit on hold right now.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's on hold and somebody else has too.
Speaker 6: But what do you what do you what do you
Speaker 6: make of the theory that Watergate was a coup because
Speaker 6: Nixon was about to spill the beans on who actually
Speaker 6: killed JFK? Do you think that? Do you think there's
Speaker 6: any any truth to that?
Speaker 1: No? No, I can tell you that.
Speaker 6: You've done the research on this. I haven't.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I can see why some people think that.
Speaker 2: And also part of that is a transposition because he
Speaker 2: was literally challenging, uh, some of the standard bearers in
Speaker 2: the Central Intelligence Agency and indeed in the government's intelligence apparatus.
Speaker 2: So some people have taken that, especially because one of
Speaker 2: those people is Dick Hells. Uh, you know, Richard Helms,
Speaker 2: and you know, if you don't know enough about him,
Speaker 2: you could see why he would be a guy that,
Speaker 2: you know, they had to interview for investigations into the
Speaker 2: JFK assassination, and they did, but they never got much
Speaker 2: out of him. I mean, this was a guy laughing
Speaker 2: at their subpoenas and such a long time ago. See,
Speaker 2: people used to do it then too, but usually it
Speaker 2: had to be a spook. And if you don't know
Speaker 2: what a spook is, please look it up in regards
Speaker 2: to what a spook.
Speaker 1: Is in the intelligence agency vernacular.
Speaker 2: Anyway, he was challenging the CIA in my mind, and
Speaker 2: therefore a bunch of former CIA operatives, assets and lackeys
Speaker 2: and useful idiots even were somehow magically brought together to
Speaker 2: blow a black bag job, a simple robbery and get
Speaker 2: themselves caught, even though one of the guys on the
Speaker 2: team had literally been an instructor of black bag jobs
Speaker 2: at the CIA.
Speaker 1: That is not a conspiracy theory.
Speaker 2: That's just part of the historical fact that nobody wants
Speaker 2: to talk about, you know.
Speaker 1: And when you combine that with a.
Speaker 2: Guy who was clearly a disinformation guy. When in the
Speaker 2: CIA's you know, operations of the time period, like well,
Speaker 2: operations of the former time period, probably about a decade
Speaker 2: before some.
Speaker 1: Of them were more active, a guy like E. Howard
Speaker 1: Hunt who.
Speaker 2: Was clearly engaged in the business of disinformation that was
Speaker 2: one of his businesses, and also propaganda through surreptitious means,
Speaker 2: including writing spy novels, which E.
Speaker 1: Howard Hunt did. By the way, he was an author.
Speaker 1: A lot of people don't know that.
Speaker 2: But anyway, far beyond the deathbed confession where he says
Speaker 2: he you know, there's a lot of convoluted nonsense that
Speaker 2: goes in. And there was the allegation because he was
Speaker 2: using a phrase during the Watergate taping, the whole Bay
Speaker 2: of Pigs thing, and a lot of people thought that
Speaker 2: was code for the Kennedy assassination.
Speaker 1: But when you take into account the fact that.
Speaker 2: He was the what do they call, the executive action
Speaker 2: officer for that White House during the time that the
Speaker 2: Bay of Pigs was planned, which, by the way, it
Speaker 2: was planned before Kennedy took office by the Eisenhower administration.
Speaker 2: That guess who was the vice president Richard but also
Speaker 2: happened to be the guy that took care of a
Speaker 2: lot of the deep, in the dark, the unconventional, and
Speaker 2: was the executive action officer when it came to intelligence matters. Likely,
Speaker 2: very likely Nixon had been involved in the planning of.
Speaker 1: The Bay Pigs.
Speaker 2: So it is my suspicion that it's more about that
Speaker 2: and a bunch of things that we never got to know.
Speaker 2: And some things that have blown right on biases people
Speaker 2: have discovered it later, like, for instance, the whole idea
Speaker 2: that Kennedy refused to give them air coverage and Kennedy
Speaker 2: refused to send in other military assets.
Speaker 1: Well, he might have refused to send some of them in, but.
Speaker 2: There was a fleet of naval vessels available right then
Speaker 2: and there at the time that were obviously not just
Speaker 2: sent in there to go on vacation. And the sun
Speaker 2: happened to be good on the beaches of Cuba. Okay,
Speaker 2: it's just that simple. There's a lot going on there
Speaker 2: that has not been known, and also the authorizations and
Speaker 2: what was authorized and everything else not quite as clear
Speaker 2: cut and dry as typical historians or conspiracy theorists have
Speaker 2: told us about for many, many years. There's also the
Speaker 2: idea that intentionally the CIA set it up so that
Speaker 2: there would be a failure and then we would have
Speaker 2: a reasonable excuse to say publicly, well, we had to
Speaker 2: send in troops, and therefore we did, and therefore we
Speaker 2: engaged in the accidental invasion of Cuba. But it didn't
Speaker 2: go all the way through, and it wasn't just Kennedy
Speaker 2: denying it. In fact, at a certain point he started
Speaker 2: approving stuff and then it had to go back because
Speaker 2: there was no point. I mean, they were captured right away.
Speaker 2: It was the worst kept secret when it came to
Speaker 2: Cuban intelligence ever, because they knew about where they were landing.
Speaker 2: Everybody was coming in. They knew all about it before
Speaker 2: they got there. It was like it was worse than
Speaker 2: Macaulay Culkin's awhereess of the robbers coming back to his
Speaker 2: house and home alone. It was that bad okay. On
Speaker 2: the beaches of Cuba. They had those guys nailed right away.
Speaker 2: Even though the plan was get in there, do a hit,
Speaker 2: run into the jungle, and then do a covert series
Speaker 2: of insurgent attacks and things like this.
Speaker 1: All that was planned out. These guys never got off
Speaker 1: the beach because they knew they were coming. So, you know,
Speaker 1: there's a lot to it.
Speaker 2: But the idea that he was trying to hide the
Speaker 2: Kennedy assassination I think has been a hyperbolic assumption from
Speaker 2: people that heard that and knew that Nixon was indeed
Speaker 2: haunted by the Kennedy assassination, not because of his involvement
Speaker 2: and not because of the fact that he had left
Speaker 2: that morning from love Field. I think even he was
Speaker 2: in Dallas that day, Nixon actually, but he left. He
Speaker 2: was there representing either Pepsi or Coke. He was a
Speaker 2: lawyer for one of those soft drink companies, and he
Speaker 2: left that morning. He was haunted by it though, because
Speaker 2: you know, there were two things that lead to him
Speaker 2: being able to win the presidency in nineteen sixty eight
Speaker 2: that were significant among a pile of other things that
Speaker 2: turned him from a losing gubernatorial candidate in California. He
Speaker 2: lost his run for governor in nineteen sixty two and
Speaker 2: his political career was over. A bunch of things came
Speaker 2: together to give him a shot at it again six
Speaker 2: years later. So six years after he couldn't secure the
Speaker 2: state of California, he was able to win the presidency.
Speaker 2: And two things that happened that were responsible for him
Speaker 2: having the ability to do so is won the death
Speaker 2: of jfk which meant we didn't have him re elected
Speaker 2: in sixty four, which meant we didn't have the political dynasty.
Speaker 2: And then, oh, by the way, in nineteen sixty eight,
Speaker 2: a guy named Robert F. Kennedy was running for office
Speaker 2: and could have very likely taken the residency until somebody
Speaker 2: put a bullet in his head, and a few other
Speaker 2: weird places in Los Angeles, California while he was campaigning.
Speaker 2: So those two assassinations were part of what assisted his
Speaker 2: rise to the White House Richard Nixon. Without them, I
Speaker 2: would argue that Nixon would have gone on to disappear
Speaker 2: into political obscurity and then been wandering around almost forever,
Speaker 2: like you know, like his one compatriot, you know that
Speaker 2: was there in the office at the time. I believe
Speaker 2: you know, he would have called him Henry, but you know,
Speaker 2: his foreign affairs advisory.
Speaker 1: Maybe you've heard of him.
Speaker 2: Do you do you know who I'm talking about there,
Speaker 2: Captain Trips?
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think I remember a gentleman that went by Henry,
Speaker 6: possibly given the given name of Hines. Yeah, I've heard that.
Speaker 6: That's an interesting it's an interesting know that that makes
Speaker 6: a lot of sense. That actually makes more sense you
Speaker 6: explaining it that way, makes more sense than the simple
Speaker 6: cut and dry he was going to spill the beans
Speaker 6: on who shot Kennedy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, And he might have indeed been a kissinger
Speaker 2: instead of you know, he might have been a kissinger
Speaker 2: in somebody else's administration.
Speaker 1: Later on, Uh, that kind of thing.
Speaker 2: That's the sort of life that he probably would have led,
Speaker 2: uh and gone on to be a lawyer for other corporations,
Speaker 2: even just as a token. You know, Hey, we just
Speaker 2: happened to have that that bit of juice in the
Speaker 2: corporate business because we have the former whatever vice president
Speaker 2: in our company now helping to run our company, et cetera,
Speaker 2: et cetera.
Speaker 1: But yeah, so there you go.
Speaker 2: So I think Nixon's entire political trajectory, he knows, was
Speaker 2: partially fueled by the fact that within five years both
Speaker 2: John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy had been erased
Speaker 2: from political you know contention.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: And some people claim that he was haunt that, and.
Speaker 2: I do believe he was because he had to have
Speaker 2: known that without those two murders, there's no way he
Speaker 2: gets to the White House. But then he gets into
Speaker 2: other stuff. And I say, again, it was unfairly you know,
Speaker 2: crucified effectively for his Shenanigans.
Speaker 6: Yeah, he does. Definitely if this juncture seems like he
Speaker 6: was far more over maligned. I'm not saying he was
Speaker 6: a He certainly wasn't, you know, a white Knight or
Speaker 6: an angel, but it seems I think history has been
Speaker 6: a bit unfair to him from what I can understand.
Speaker 2: But gradually in recent years they have softened their position.
Speaker 6: And yeah, come down, I've noticed as well.
Speaker 1: He just remains.
Speaker 2: But he still remains a benchmark whenever somebody talks about,
Speaker 2: you know, and he remains a double benchmark, a spoken
Speaker 2: one and an unspoken one. What do I mean? There
Speaker 2: is at the moment that you have somebody who might
Speaker 2: be impeached or resign or whatever, they bring up Nixon.
Speaker 2: And it doesn't matter if it's in the presidency or
Speaker 2: it's a governor or whatever, Nixon will come up in
Speaker 2: the conversation among pundits. It's a promise. But also another
Speaker 2: thing that has happened, which has been added to the nomenclature,
Speaker 2: is that when a scandal emerges of almost any kind,
Speaker 2: it gets the suffix gate added to it quite often.
Speaker 2: Why because of the Watergate hotel So now it's you know,
Speaker 2: what was it blue dress gate maybe, or you know,
Speaker 2: in some circles it became BJA Gate when it came
Speaker 2: to you know, Clinton, right. In other cases they've taken
Speaker 2: this or that and called it gate.
Speaker 1: So they've added to well, just.
Speaker 6: Just recently, just recently with the first with when Trump
Speaker 6: was president anything making no comments on it, but everything
Speaker 6: involving Russia was Russia Gate.
Speaker 2: Russia Gate, Yep, there you go. Russia Gate was a phrase.
Speaker 2: What is the gate about? It's because of the Watergate hotel,
Speaker 2: that's all.
Speaker 1: That's what gate is. So they but they've added it
Speaker 1: to everything.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think of political crap that went on
Speaker 2: during the eighties when they thought it was going to
Speaker 2: spin and become you know, before the mainstream media actually
Speaker 2: drove the news completely, they used to float things out
Speaker 2: there and try to see if it would catch on,
Speaker 2: and if it didn't, it would go away.
Speaker 1: But much smaller stories became this or that gaate? What
Speaker 1: was it? You know, what's money really is?
Speaker 2: At one point I heard a couple of news reporters
Speaker 2: and they dropped it quickly, Thank god. Is whitewater There
Speaker 2: was a point at which there were news you know,
Speaker 2: talking heads, not really reporters, but talking heads on the
Speaker 2: news were trying to say white Watergate, and you know,
Speaker 2: that just doesn't sound right. Something is way wrong with that,
Speaker 2: And it's almost like, well, if that's Whitewatergate, what was
Speaker 2: the other one?
Speaker 1: You know was that blackwater Gate? Was that you know, uh,
Speaker 1: why is this one white? Is there going to be
Speaker 1: a green watergate? Or were going to start? You know?
Speaker 1: So it no good? They dropped it and it just
Speaker 1: became a whitewater.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think remember I think it. I think with
Speaker 6: the with the Monica Lewinsky thing, I think it was
Speaker 6: Monica Gate. I do remember that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well there was that, and there was even another
Speaker 2: thing when a bunch of stuff started emerging and it was.
Speaker 1: Called Bimbo gate. Bimbo Gate happened because I remember that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, bimbo eruptions was a phrase that I don't know
Speaker 2: was that Carvil who came up with that, with you know,
Speaker 2: dealing with bimbo eruptions because there would be you know, play.
Speaker 6: That sounds like that sounds like something that would have
Speaker 6: come out of Carville or would come out of Carville's mouth.
Speaker 6: I agree.
Speaker 2: But ever after and even up to today, again more
Speaker 2: than fifty years later, we are still faced with the
Speaker 2: gate suffix on the political controversy you know right well.
Speaker 6: Speaking of that, it wasn't in your home state. With
Speaker 6: remember the whole Chris Christie thing with the bridge. He
Speaker 6: was supposedly closing down the bridges. Absolutely political enemies. They
Speaker 6: were calling it Bridgegate.
Speaker 2: We remember that it was bridge Gate, and there was
Speaker 2: a couple other phrases they had, but Bridgegate.
Speaker 1: Is the one that's stuck.
Speaker 2: And meanwhile, that doesn't even have a hotel in the
Speaker 2: damn thing. I mean, what are you doing Gate? Not
Speaker 2: even a hotel? No thebes. There was just Chris Christy
Speaker 2: exerting political pressure to screw with somebody, that's all. And
Speaker 2: that became a gate. So it didn't even have to associate.
Speaker 2: You didn't need former CIA guys, you didn't need Cubans,
Speaker 2: you didn't need a robbery even. All you needed is
Speaker 2: a political scandal and they would attach Gate to it anyway, Danny,
Speaker 2: I know, we went into a weird position, but actually
Speaker 2: came back around to to Watergate for a second and
Speaker 2: everything else. But but what you got something you want
Speaker 2: to respond to here? Because I've got other callers and
Speaker 2: I do want to move on to them and put
Speaker 2: you on old for the time being.
Speaker 7: Thanks. Yeah, either even moved to other callers or I
Speaker 7: got it just a short sea points and then you
Speaker 7: could move on either way.
Speaker 1: Whatever, Sure, go ahead, thank you.
Speaker 7: Okay, Yeah, you're welcome. Don O'Brien. Sean O'Brien was playing politics.
Speaker 7: He was gonna eat. He decided to not endorse because
Speaker 7: I think he wants to re election as president of the Teamsters,
Speaker 7: so he can have all those those votes for him.
Speaker 7: Number Two, the Trump MLRB and a horrific He literally
Speaker 7: hired a union best the attorneys to run the NRB.
Speaker 7: They were absolutely horrific what they did to labor. Number three,
Speaker 7: I'll make this my final point. This has to do
Speaker 7: it without morality. The first his choice for Secretary Labor
Speaker 7: with alex Acosta from Florida. Something against Florida, but he's
Speaker 7: the DA. He gave the sweet heart deal. So Jeffrey Epstein,
Speaker 7: he didn't have the balls for the child ruster in jail,
Speaker 7: he cave. He is useful. Matter of fact, I read
Speaker 7: his transition team. They were well aware of that whole deal.
Speaker 7: They entered you're employed, and they had no problem put
Speaker 7: on because he is a useful idiot. He could be
Speaker 7: easis and he had to resign. So no way I'm
Speaker 7: going to vote for Trump for those reasons. It's a
Speaker 7: moral issue. If my father said, I can't vote for
Speaker 7: someone with a multiple barnyard animal number two. It's a
Speaker 7: financial issue because you have a contract coming up next year,
Speaker 7: and I can I megine if it gets if it gets,
Speaker 7: if it gets scary that we haven't n ll rbs
Speaker 7: that will have, we'll be out there to established in
Speaker 7: the back.
Speaker 1: Well. Not only that, but let's never forget that.
Speaker 2: You know, Ronald Reagan fired the air traffic controllers and
Speaker 2: a lot of people celebrated that. But today if you're
Speaker 2: like a pro union guy, to be honest with you, uh,
Speaker 2: it's funny. It's almost like that never happened to, you know,
Speaker 2: Reagan the Great. And I just see radical moves like
Speaker 2: that occurring with Trump. If billionaires come to him. If
Speaker 2: some billionaires come to him and say, look are corp
Speaker 2: bottom line is going to get screwed because of these workers,
Speaker 2: I can see him authorizing all kinds of you know what,
Speaker 2: don't even hold them to account regarding labor laws and
Speaker 2: everything else, and screw them, fire them, recontract people. I
Speaker 2: could definitely see a disaster coming out of there if
Speaker 2: just the right person gets in his ear. Because it's
Speaker 2: not always the likes of Kim Kardashian that come to
Speaker 2: him and ask him for prison reform, which, by the way,
Speaker 2: I don't know if people remember that happening. You know,
Speaker 2: Kim Kardashian came to him and got a commutation for
Speaker 2: a lady, which you know, you could look at it
Speaker 2: and try and figure out whether that was a good
Speaker 2: thing to do or not. But that was one of
Speaker 2: the people that convinced him to make a very serious decision. Okay,
Speaker 2: Kim Kardashian. So you know, I just saying, just saying,
Speaker 2: and does everybody remember the meeting with Kanye in the
Speaker 2: White House where you know, putting on the red hat
Speaker 2: laid him into a superman.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying. And still my favorite, my absolute favorite
Speaker 2: clip of Kanye comes from Family Guy Gon. I finished
Speaker 2: giving this lasagna a massage and then I'm gonna announce
Speaker 2: that I'm joining Isis, you know, And we got stuff
Speaker 2: like that out of Kanye, and there you go, and
Speaker 2: Kanye ran for president and he's not doing it this
Speaker 2: time anyway. All that having been said, I'm gonna put
Speaker 2: you on hold, Danny, and we're going to change a
Speaker 2: little bit because I'm going to bring in one of
Speaker 2: the callers as a co host.
Speaker 1: But I want to give.
Speaker 2: Oh wait, the other one dropped away, So I'm gonna
Speaker 2: never mind. I was gonna do something different here, but
Speaker 2: now I'm not. I'm going to bring on Jimmy James.
Speaker 2: And for right now, Jimmy, you're a caller. You're going
Speaker 2: to switch to co host mode after we take a
Speaker 2: break at some point, but for right now, you're going
Speaker 2: to come in as a caller, So behave as a caller.
Speaker 1: And there you go.
Speaker 2: You can address one of or all three of us here,
Speaker 2: and we are going to take a break after your
Speaker 2: call Jimmy, And but I want to give each of
Speaker 2: my co hosts a chance to discuss with you if
Speaker 2: they choose, if they so dare here, but also anybody
Speaker 2: else who wants to join us.
Speaker 1: This might be a lot of fun.
Speaker 2: Not sure who's going to remain on for the whole
Speaker 2: show or not, but three one nine five to two
Speaker 2: seven five zero one six is the way to join
Speaker 2: the melee on the Ocelli Effect Open mic here tonight
Speaker 2: on a Friday night. Three one nine five two seven
Speaker 2: five zero one six, and from what I understand, in
Speaker 2: about fifty three minutes will be joined by Aaron Franz
Speaker 2: and the Age of transitions will begin. Indeed, he has
Speaker 2: something rather fascinating a guest on the age of transitions,
Speaker 2: and uh uncle, the broadcast will follow that tonight. So
Speaker 2: either way, we're gonna get on to it and we're
Speaker 2: gonna get on through it. So sell I uh does
Speaker 2: either of my coasts? Let's begin with regular Joe, Regular Joe,
Speaker 2: do you have anything you want to add before we
Speaker 2: turn Jimmy Loose on the caller's side of the mic.
Speaker 8: Turn him loose?
Speaker 1: Okay, he's on the turning loose side.
Speaker 2: About you, Captain Trips, anything you'd like to drop in
Speaker 2: or drop out of or just drop here before I
Speaker 2: bring Jimmy James onto the caller side of the mic.
Speaker 6: Nope, Jimmy James has has the floor, all.
Speaker 1: Right, that's the way it goes. You have the floor, sir,
Speaker 1: as a caller right now.
Speaker 2: But my co host offer still stands, So let me
Speaker 2: know if I'm going to bring you on as a
Speaker 2: co host after a break.
Speaker 6: Jimmy excelle b Pete.
Speaker 1: Could not make it tonight due to his work issues. Okay,
Speaker 1: Oh that's another thing.
Speaker 2: Anybody who's having problems with their payroll call in message
Speaker 2: me because there appears to be in many parts of
Speaker 2: the country a simultaneous issue with payroll, where computer programs
Speaker 2: are being blamed, human error is being blamed, blames being attached.
Speaker 2: But I'm wondering if there's a simultaneous purpose to this.
Speaker 2: I just happened to notice the coincidence that a lot
Speaker 2: of people had problems with their payroll this week.
Speaker 1: I'm not naming any.
Speaker 2: Names, but I got to tell you two people whose
Speaker 2: names listeners to this show would know right away, and
Speaker 2: two other people that you might not. You know, literally,
Speaker 2: I said, I would love it if you guys made
Speaker 2: a contribution this week or whatever. And in the past,
Speaker 2: i'd say two or three weeks, I have gotten reports
Speaker 2: from four people now that they're having issues getting paid because.
Speaker 1: Their payroll is screwed up.
Speaker 2: So I want to know if that's a trend out there,
Speaker 2: So call in three one nine, five, two seven, five
Speaker 2: zero one six. Indeed, if you only just want to
Speaker 2: report that and not even identify yourself, I'd like to
Speaker 2: hear some more and you can email me and all
Speaker 2: that BLINDJFK researcher at gmail dot com. Let me know
Speaker 2: what this is and maybe I can figure out a
Speaker 2: pattern because I see no reports anywhere, and yet with
Speaker 2: four people randomly telling me this on the same week,
Speaker 2: it seems, or the same couple.
Speaker 1: Of weeks really during this month.
Speaker 2: Let's say, it's kind of odd, folks, So somebody let
Speaker 2: me know anyway, Jimmy, I don't think you have a
Speaker 2: problem with your payroll checks, but maybe you do. And
Speaker 2: I turned the floor back over to you for anything
Speaker 2: you want to toss out as a caller, brother, go ahead.
Speaker 9: Well, I won't know if I'm I'm gonna get paid
Speaker 9: or not until next week, so I'll have to let
Speaker 9: you know them as I know. It's good. I don't
Speaker 9: pursue your problem well.
Speaker 1: Without revealing personal details.
Speaker 2: Jimmy, I think the way that you get paid would
Speaker 2: not necessarily be described as payroll, right or would it?
Speaker 2: Do you think it's a payroll or is it not
Speaker 2: a payroll? The way you get paid, you don't have
Speaker 2: to reveal details.
Speaker 1: Just am I right?
Speaker 2: Thinking that you would not be part of people that
Speaker 2: would say they're getting given payroll per se.
Speaker 9: Now you're right, I wouldn't be on a pay roll
Speaker 9: per se, so you're correct.
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, but that's the thing, and no offense to
Speaker 2: you or anything. I'm just saying, I don't think you
Speaker 2: would even be at risk if there is a trend happening.
Speaker 2: Of course, i'd love to know if that was happening
Speaker 2: with anybody. Maybe there's a lot of people having trouble
Speaker 2: getting paid, but as far as I know personally, the
Speaker 2: only thing I have trouble with is when I draw
Speaker 2: up an invoice for somebody and I have to chase
Speaker 2: them for a couple of months in order to get
Speaker 2: them to pay it. But other than that, you know,
Speaker 2: that's that's the way business is sometimes, and at certain
Speaker 2: times it's more prevalent than others.
Speaker 1: But it's a weird.
Speaker 2: Trend when I hear that people that could normally, you know,
Speaker 2: set their calendars and their watches by their payroll literally
Speaker 2: tell me, you know, I know I get paid at
Speaker 2: seven oh one am every single time I get paid,
Speaker 2: and all that kind of thing, like they know exactly
Speaker 2: what time their direct deposits hit their bank accounts and
Speaker 2: all that. There's just a handful of people so far, No,
Speaker 2: not this time, something's wrong.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't know. You go ahead, trips.
Speaker 9: Twelve to twelve o one to watch it logo.
Speaker 2: So there you go. You know what I'm saying, like
Speaker 2: you could set your calendar or watch by it and trips.
Speaker 2: You were trying to add something there.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, And I'm not embarrassed to admit I'm
Speaker 6: one of the people that brought that to your attention.
Speaker 6: And I hadn't heard of any issues until you said that.
Speaker 6: Oh you too. So, like I said, with with our
Speaker 6: particular issue, they just didn't pay us our overtime. Now,
Speaker 6: the story I got from from our department manager was
Speaker 6: the person that normally does our department's payroll was on
Speaker 6: vacation and the person that did it just basically screwed up.
Speaker 6: I don't know. Now, I will say they cut us
Speaker 6: our checks on Monday, so you know the pay the
Speaker 6: pay was screwed up for the Friday deposit on Monday.
Speaker 6: I went into Tuesday. Tuesday morning, I was in my department.
Speaker 6: I went to see her and she had all the checks.
Speaker 6: So they turned around and fixed the problem very quickly.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 6: As I said, I was told it was human error,
Speaker 6: and I figured that's what it was. But now that
Speaker 6: I'm hearing that this seems to be a little bit
Speaker 6: more of a trend, it is making me go humh.
Speaker 6: Was it human error? Was there something else behind it
Speaker 6: that I don't know?
Speaker 1: Well, a weird thing.
Speaker 6: Like I said, my employer did fix the problem immediately.
Speaker 2: Well, look, I don't want to go into this too
Speaker 2: much because I would rather and I didn't mean to
Speaker 2: identify you, for sure, you just chose to do that.
Speaker 2: But you are one of those people. But here's a
Speaker 2: weird added thing. And there's a couple of facts that
Speaker 2: also bring this together that I'm not going to reveal
Speaker 2: because I want to make sure I'm getting legitimate information
Speaker 2: and I don't want to contaminate it.
Speaker 1: But you're also among the four people. Okay, you're obviously
Speaker 1: one of them, but.
Speaker 2: Among the four people, three of them indeed talked about
Speaker 2: the fact that they were supposed to initially be something else,
Speaker 2: a bonus or something above the standard pay for one
Speaker 2: reason or another, and that's the first thing that went wrong. Okay,
Speaker 2: then I'm told they didn't get paid at all, you know,
Speaker 2: during a time period, and they're promised it's going to
Speaker 2: be fixed. Now, there are multiple reasons why they were
Speaker 2: told this, which do form another pattern, but I'm not
Speaker 2: going to reveal that. I am telling you though, that
Speaker 2: It started with, well, I was supposed to get a bonus.
Speaker 2: I was supposed to get something else that was a
Speaker 2: what was the other term, a reimbursement for something else
Speaker 2: that you know, they had to lay money out for.
Speaker 2: And there were supposed to be special reimbursements along with
Speaker 2: like a little more that was supposed to be added
Speaker 2: to it in order to cover something. Okay, I forget
Speaker 2: what the exact explanation was, but the idea that there
Speaker 2: was like something above the normal say hourly wage or
Speaker 2: whatever parted the problem where they didn't get that, then
Speaker 2: there was a lack of payroll, either entirely or in
Speaker 2: in you know, in the majority of what it is
Speaker 2: they were supposed to get.
Speaker 1: So these two things happen as well.
Speaker 2: Uh so the idea that they didn't pay for overtime,
Speaker 2: but they did send you a regular check, right, but
Speaker 2: not the overtime?
Speaker 1: Is that where we're at? Sorry?
Speaker 6: Sorry, sorry, sorry I was, I was actually I was
Speaker 6: actually doing the contribution.
Speaker 1: I told you no time.
Speaker 6: Yes, I got my I got my base. I got
Speaker 6: my base, but I pull a ton of overtime, so
Speaker 6: I live on the over I live off the overtime.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, some.
Speaker 6: People do you know I got my base salary, and
Speaker 6: then they had the overtime, and I.
Speaker 2: Wasn't well for the record real fast. I wasn't one
Speaker 2: second one second for the record real fast trips. I
Speaker 2: wasn't trying to push you there. I was just trying
Speaker 2: to tell you that there's a lot of power that
Speaker 2: occurred here.
Speaker 6: So yeah, yeah, no, I know I had you and
Speaker 6: I had talked earlier, and I meant to do it,
Speaker 6: and then it's just because my brain is so packed
Speaker 6: right now and with all that go, with all the
Speaker 6: other stuff going on, I just don't want to forget it.
Speaker 6: Looks oh yes, I want.
Speaker 2: To do that, massively appreciated, thank you, But but that
Speaker 2: wasn't the point of it really truly. I want to
Speaker 2: collect more information on this because if there is a trend,
Speaker 2: I would like to report on it, because I've seen
Speaker 2: no reports.
Speaker 1: Is there a problem with you know, the.
Speaker 2: Payroll systems plural out there for some reason. I'd like
Speaker 2: to know, uh, and maybe inform others because you know,
Speaker 2: they believe me. And by the way, one guy totally
Speaker 2: freaked out about this because he's like, how am I
Speaker 2: supposed to live? And I as somebody else in the
Speaker 2: mix there took a loan. I mean, there's all kinds
Speaker 2: of weirdness happening here because people weren't getting the money
Speaker 2: that they were relying on. That usually shows up with
Speaker 2: no issue. So just saying, I guess you've recovered, which
Speaker 2: is great, and whatever you did, it's appreciate it. And
Speaker 2: if anybody wants to click the uh, you know, the
Speaker 2: PayPal button. Patreon, by the way, is going to be
Speaker 2: eliminated by the end of this month. I'm going to
Speaker 2: eliminate that from from It's no longer a viable thing
Speaker 2: to run. So I'm not going to be running Patreon
Speaker 2: anymore fro Shelly effect.
Speaker 1: But I will continue to have the the button for
Speaker 1: PayPal for people that wish to help keep the network going.
Speaker 1: So there's that.
Speaker 2: But anyway, I'm going to shut up now and let
Speaker 2: Jimmy James have his time as a caller. But I
Speaker 2: wanted to clarify all this, so by all means, you know,
Speaker 2: Captain Trips, you make your contribution if that's what you're
Speaker 2: doing right now. But I wasn't trying to push you
Speaker 2: into it. It's just that it's so happened that people
Speaker 2: that said they were going to didn't and then I asked, well,
Speaker 2: is everything okay? And what I got back was that
Speaker 2: they had problems with their payroll, and it is true
Speaker 2: you were one of them.
Speaker 1: So anyway, you see, now this just goes the show.
Speaker 1: I don't make stuff up, folks, just saying sometimes people
Speaker 1: say you made it up, and no, I didn't make
Speaker 1: crap up. I don't have the imagination anymore.
Speaker 6: So just for the record, just for the record, yeah,
Speaker 6: I didn't. I didn't feel put I did not feel
Speaker 6: pushed into it. I'm sorry, Jimmy. I didn't mean interrupt you.
Speaker 6: I just want to say, for the record, I didn't
Speaker 6: feel pushed into it. It literally was like I need
Speaker 6: to do this now, so I don't forget.
Speaker 1: Okay, no problem, So Jimmy, now I'll shut up. Sorry,
Speaker 1: but go ahead.
Speaker 9: You guys are fine, all right.
Speaker 7: My question to captive trips.
Speaker 9: Uh you've heard the Donald Trumps uh play an idea.
Speaker 9: He says he'll eliminate taxes from overtime. Now, this to
Speaker 9: me is brilliant. This to me, will be the biggest
Speaker 9: financial new deal for ane hundred damn years. This would
Speaker 9: turn a lot of people work and from the work
Speaker 9: new class, move them into the middle class. I mean,
Speaker 9: I don't mind.
Speaker 7: Alhree.
Speaker 1: My only counter, my only counter, my only counter, Jimmy, Jimmy.
Speaker 2: A counter which I want you to consider here, though,
Speaker 2: is that every time something like that happens, and there's
Speaker 2: going to be some improvement if you go over, Like
Speaker 2: even the whole thing of a company is now going
Speaker 2: to have to cover your healthcare if you go over
Speaker 2: a certain amount of hours. What happened, Actually every company
Speaker 2: in the world started, you know, giving people thirty and
Speaker 2: thirty five hour a week jobs to avoid hitting the threshold,
Speaker 2: and a lot of places avoid hitting the.
Speaker 1: Threshold and tell you even that you'll be fired if
Speaker 1: you run over.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll pay your overtime, but we'll wind up removing
Speaker 2: you from the payroll in a lot of places.
Speaker 1: And I mean that's on a lot of low level jobs.
Speaker 2: So if that's eliminated, as you know, taxable and somehow
Speaker 2: that doesn't benefit if it doesn't benefit the employers, to
Speaker 2: be honest with you, employers will just avoid issuing overtime
Speaker 2: where they can, and that's usually what happens.
Speaker 1: But I'm wondering, is there any penalty. Is there any
Speaker 1: penalty to the employer Jimmy, good, it.
Speaker 9: Shouldn't work the employers they are losing anything.
Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, I would I would agree with I would
Speaker 6: agree with Jimmy on that one. I'm not sure. Yeah,
Speaker 6: that's why I was asking employers.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just asking.
Speaker 2: Because I wonder if there's a problem with that, Like
Speaker 2: there's some kind of thing that might end up costing
Speaker 2: them something.
Speaker 1: If if they're not you know, putting in tax and.
Speaker 2: Then you still got to put in Social Security against it, right,
Speaker 2: I mean, they'll still take out your FIKA and your whatever.
Speaker 9: So I wonder, let's let's get it real. Everyone that
Speaker 9: pays that stuff, then one thing gets it all back at.
Speaker 3: The end of the year.
Speaker 9: And if you have any wives or kids, you're getting
Speaker 9: away more than you could it.
Speaker 1: Okay, I know only yeah, up to a certain level,
Speaker 1: that's right.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: Yes, up to a certain level, that's true.
Speaker 2: But but then again, I also know people that pay
Speaker 2: taxes are supposed to taking anything in uh And and
Speaker 2: those people make a better living than the majority of
Speaker 2: us do, but they wind up being a little bit
Speaker 2: upset because they actually pay taxes. They don't, you know,
Speaker 2: get all their tax money back. They wind up having
Speaker 2: to write a check.
Speaker 1: In addition, I'll get to that.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I was gonna get to that.
Speaker 1: Cool.
Speaker 9: Good, Well, it's been an hour of things. Let's started
Speaker 9: day and stamped above morality? Are you serious? Do you
Speaker 9: watch any other news than MS and DC? Just this week,
Speaker 9: Seris is the Bust and took play Tourism. The complete
Speaker 9: first book was literally lifted from Wikipedia only can't put
Speaker 9: two sentences together in besnine, she has run this country
Speaker 9: into the damn ground? Are you serious, Danny?
Speaker 1: That's the way he views it, and that's the way
Speaker 1: you view it. What can I say?
Speaker 9: You know, Danny is and he's still Yeah, he's on.
Speaker 2: Hold, and there's another caller behind you, so you know,
Speaker 2: I understand. We'll get back around to Dan in a bit. So, hey,
Speaker 2: when when we switch you to co host, when we
Speaker 2: switch you to colost duties, you can definitely address Danny directly.
Speaker 1: How's that sound?
Speaker 6: Well?
Speaker 2: Okay, anything else you got on your mind? Or should
Speaker 2: we get to the other collar before we can rush
Speaker 2: into a break.
Speaker 9: That's all again. One other thing Danny mits and his
Speaker 9: father in twenty sixteen. Yes, well, guess what, Danny in
Speaker 9: twenty sixteen, I had the same thoughts. I was laughing
Speaker 9: when I was getting a little books with Donald Trump.
Speaker 9: I thought he had no chance, and Hayden so me too.
Speaker 9: Even if you'll take it to the nomination.
Speaker 1: Guess what, I.
Speaker 7: Didn't know anything about Donald Trump. Guess what in the last.
Speaker 9: Eight nine years, I've learned a lot about Donald Trump.
Speaker 9: And uh, I will be voting the Trump and so
Speaker 9: add to your father.
Speaker 1: If you say so, I mean, what can I say?
Speaker 2: We can't guess at it at this point, and of
Speaker 2: course new information can always change somebody's position.
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna put you on hold, Jimmy.
Speaker 2: We'll bring you back around as a co host after
Speaker 2: a break. But before we go there, we got another
Speaker 2: wireless caller at the eight five to five area code,
Speaker 2: So I'm going to bring them on and let them
Speaker 2: speak their mind before we go to a break. So
Speaker 2: you're live eight five to five area code.
Speaker 10: It's six file Jeff, which I will saying, your legally
Speaker 10: blind and you think you can't say the scre.
Speaker 1: My apologies eight six five, Sorry about that. How you're doing, Harlan?
Speaker 1: My mistake.
Speaker 9: Well, I've been home.
Speaker 10: I've called in a couple of different times, and I
Speaker 10: had to keep switching over and grabs. I finally got
Speaker 10: on there.
Speaker 1: Okay, so go for it. You're live. What do you
Speaker 1: got to add to the conversation.
Speaker 10: Well, I'm caught a few things. I mean, far as
Speaker 10: about the overtime goes, I'm gonna go out here and
Speaker 10: limb and say, if they're eliminating taxes on overtime, I
Speaker 10: wouldn't hold my breaths. But if they're a leming tax
Speaker 10: eliminating taxes on overtime, I'm sure that that's probably gonna
Speaker 10: include any of the other cycle or social security that
Speaker 10: the employers would have to pay on any changes all
Speaker 10: it wouldn't happen because you know, it's always my private
Speaker 10: company's going to come before it. But if because the
Speaker 10: constitutions should say corporations not where to poo. And during
Speaker 10: the times I've been in and now, a good point
Speaker 10: a Captain trip Man was how we got to this
Speaker 10: deal with inflation that.
Speaker 7: We're eating out.
Speaker 10: And I'm not saying that Biden and Harris is not
Speaker 10: added to it, but that's definitely.
Speaker 7: Where it started from.
Speaker 10: Was in twenty twenty when they started dranking the printing
Speaker 10: presses up. Matter of fact, you know, but then I
Speaker 10: didn't crank the printing presses up.
Speaker 7: They just you know, hit a few keystrokes.
Speaker 10: And invented it out of thin air, you know, on
Speaker 10: the computer. But I just thought i'd jump in here
Speaker 10: and you know, say hi everybody. I've kind of been
Speaker 10: sitting there for a little while now, so I'm going
Speaker 10: to have to get to go. And you've kind of
Speaker 10: got a full plate, and everybody's had something good to
Speaker 10: say to that that I've actually, you know, how to
Speaker 10: change to listen to excellent.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm glad to hear from you, and indeed we
Speaker 2: may hear from Pete before this is all over. So
Speaker 2: it's an interesting Friday night. Well, he was telling me
Speaker 2: that he wouldn't make it home from work, you know,
Speaker 2: until too late. So he asked me to try and
Speaker 2: find Jimmy James as a co host, and I offered
Speaker 2: it to three people, figuring that two of them would
Speaker 2: probably say no, and all three seem to say yes.
Speaker 2: So Jimmy joined us a little late. But I've got
Speaker 2: Captain Tripps and regular Joe as co hosts, plus Jimmy
Speaker 2: James waiting now to transition from caller to co host.
Speaker 1: So who knows. Maybe I'll add B Pete and I'll
Speaker 1: just sit back and level four of you go at it.
Speaker 10: One more thing before go Are you going to do
Speaker 10: anything on the election?
Speaker 7: Mat?
Speaker 10: I've talked to a couple guys, you know Sharon to say,
Speaker 10: if they want to do a scream on election, you're
Speaker 10: going to do anything on your network?
Speaker 6: You know?
Speaker 1: I want to, And I was really just looking for
Speaker 1: some people to work with.
Speaker 2: And I've asked a couple and nobody seems to want
Speaker 2: to do a live discuss uh for about four hours
Speaker 2: that night. But that's what I was looking to do,
Speaker 2: is a live discussion and we track the results. Uh
Speaker 2: maybe start at eight and end at midnight.
Speaker 1: You know, but what is it?
Speaker 6: I would I would love to, but I am actually
Speaker 6: scheduled to work. However, let me see if I can,
Speaker 6: let me see if I can orchestrate a swap. I'm
Speaker 6: not sure if that'll be possible. If I can find
Speaker 6: someone to swap a shift with me, then then yeah,
Speaker 6: I would. I would actually, I would have. I would
Speaker 6: like to do that, but given my current schedule, it
Speaker 6: wouldn't be possible, especially especially where I'm going to be
Speaker 6: covering that night. It's it's too busy, of course, So
Speaker 6: let me see if I can do it. If I
Speaker 6: can find someone to swap a shift with me, I
Speaker 6: would be interested in doing that with you.
Speaker 1: So there you have it. Maybe maybe I'll arrange a
Speaker 1: November fifth special broadcast.
Speaker 3: Yep, that's all Thursday, right, that's this coming Thursday, isn't it.
Speaker 1: No, that's a two nights.
Speaker 6: It's a week from Tuesday week.
Speaker 1: Ye yep, So yeah, it would be on a Tuesday, Joe.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I would be willing to take on a
Speaker 2: few people and just have a panel discussion. So and uh, yeah,
Speaker 2: I think that would be a good idea actually, Harlan,
Speaker 2: So do you want to cooperate somehow and run my
Speaker 2: audio into your stream or do you want to just
Speaker 2: join us?
Speaker 1: Or what are you thinking?
Speaker 10: He's having to me? Oh no, I mean I'll jump in.
Speaker 10: I mean, I don't know if the other guys if
Speaker 10: they're going to do it or not. I've not heard
Speaker 10: anything back from him, as I said, you know, last week,
Speaker 10: but you know I thought if he was, I mean,
Speaker 10: i'd jump in, you know something here and there.
Speaker 7: So I can't get my Facebook to gm.
Speaker 9: HAW with my stream.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, that's not what I've been.
Speaker 10: Trying on and off for you know, you know what,
Speaker 10: probably about six months ago, I spent probably about a
Speaker 10: week just stontaneously, over and over trying to get it
Speaker 10: to hook in. And my computers actually set up on
Speaker 10: Google and everything's tied in together, I mean computing my computer,
Speaker 10: you know it. Thanks, my name is hailing but true
Speaker 10: Google and all that. But anyway, you know, I just
Speaker 10: you know, basket would be just you know, laying around
Speaker 10: shooting off to my off. I mean, I ain't got anything,
Speaker 10: you know that on my own.
Speaker 7: I've not tried it on rumbles yet.
Speaker 10: I believe it actually would.
Speaker 1: Well, why don't you yeah, why don't you see if
Speaker 1: rumble works all right? Man, let me know.
Speaker 2: And if not, I mean obviously I'll give you a slot. Also,
Speaker 2: BP text me and said he'd be up for doing
Speaker 2: an election night broadcast with me too. So let's see
Speaker 2: if we can arrange for one and uh, put together
Speaker 2: as many of you as possible for election night. I
Speaker 2: think that would be interesting. I would have to cancel
Speaker 2: one thing that I usually do on Tuesday nights, uh,
Speaker 2: but that shouldn't be too much of an issue. So
Speaker 2: let's see if we can do that and uh, yeah,
Speaker 2: do a special. I think that would be uh, that
Speaker 2: would be good.
Speaker 1: All right, Harlan.
Speaker 2: Well, look, I'm gonna let you go because we only
Speaker 2: got about a half hour left and I've got a
Speaker 2: few things to swap around because b Pete wants to
Speaker 2: join us as well, and I did tell Jimmy James
Speaker 2: he can.
Speaker 1: Have a cohost solid yep, so let's do that. Harlan.
Speaker 1: It was good to hear from you, old brother. Thanks
Speaker 1: for calling in and I appreciate you.

Speaker 2: Okay, I didn't see if or a second there, Jimmy,

Speaker 1: the callers on hold, but we are ready to roll. Sir,
Speaker 1: take over and tell us. Do you want to talk
Speaker 1: to Danny or would you like to kick something else
Speaker 1: onto the table?
Speaker 9: Well, I'd be happy. I want to talk to Danny.
Speaker 9: She really seems to have it in for Trump. He's
Speaker 9: o sense to say.
Speaker 2: Right, he certainly does. But look, you certainly got it
Speaker 2: on in for Trump, as you said. Uh, you certainly
Speaker 2: got it in for Trump, as you said, Jimmy James.
Speaker 2: But you certainly want to use you a little bit
Speaker 2: of time just on that.
Speaker 1: That's what we'll do. I'll bring them on if you
Speaker 1: say so, yes or no?
Speaker 9: Yes, all right, you were the only one that really
Speaker 9: brought up, you know, the kind of political issues, so
Speaker 9: I might as well addressed there.
Speaker 2: It is, so, Danny, you're live with Jimmy James and
Speaker 2: all the rest of the current co hosting team.
Speaker 1: What's up? You're you got it in for Trump? According
Speaker 1: to Jimmy James.
Speaker 7: Well, let me let me, let me let me answer
Speaker 7: one question. I don't really watch any of the table
Speaker 7: in these programs. I mean, the last time I watched
Speaker 7: MSNBCO Bottles in Office, And I'll be right up from
Speaker 7: their most popular hosts, Rachel Maddow. She's a bold face,
Speaker 7: fought war, and she's just like all those cables. It's
Speaker 7: about ten news and sometimes they get all of them.
Speaker 7: Even Fox gets it right. It's ninety percent of opinion
Speaker 7: my news sources, usual AP, a few of the independents,
Speaker 7: and then I form my own opinions.
Speaker 2: So what you're saying is that you're answering Jimmy James
Speaker 2: saying that do you watch anything other than MSNBC.
Speaker 1: You're telling them you don't watch it at all. So okay,
Speaker 1: there's one answer.
Speaker 9: No, did you say that was your first answer?
Speaker 7: RT?
Speaker 1: No, he said that he watched it. AP.
Speaker 2: Sorry I put him on hold accidentally. AP was his
Speaker 2: first answer the Associated Press.
Speaker 7: Yes, yeah, I just look at the articles and if
Speaker 7: there's something that piques my interests, I read it, and
Speaker 7: if it's uh, if I find it more interest, I
Speaker 7: go look for other sources and see if it collaborates
Speaker 7: or should makes any sense.
Speaker 1: I see, but AP, it's been.
Speaker 12: Right.
Speaker 9: At my observation, the AP is the mother of all
Speaker 9: the other ones. So you basically can look at AP
Speaker 9: and then you can look at Fox and there's your
Speaker 9: two corporate news.
Speaker 1: So basically the opposition, the opposition to Fox in the
Speaker 1: corporate news world is the AP. That's actually their core opposition,
Speaker 1: and everything stems from that, Jimmy, is that what you're saying?
Speaker 9: Everything comes from the AP. It goes from the AP
Speaker 9: to the New York Slignes, to the Loot, down to
Speaker 9: the Washington Compost, and then it goes to that Harry
Speaker 9: Potter guy at p MSNBC, and it goes of the
Speaker 9: the Morning Smoll and the missis Smoll. Yeah, that's how
Speaker 9: that's how that line works.
Speaker 1: The Morning Smow You mean Morning Joe.
Speaker 2: I thought that was the Harry Potter guy on MSNBC
Speaker 2: because Joe Scarborough's looking at a bit Harry Potter ishu
Speaker 2: as of his last appearance on Bill Maher.
Speaker 1: But but you call that the Morning Smow? Is that
Speaker 1: what it is? Ball?
Speaker 9: No, I'm sorry, Chuck, Rachel mad Wings. The Harry Potter
Speaker 9: contest chance down between those two?
Speaker 1: Fair enough? Okay? I was unclear on that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, you know what that that is more
Speaker 2: Harry Potter looking and I hope never to know how
Speaker 2: Harriet is. So go ahead, Yeah, well that is my statement.
Speaker 9: The news is pretty much in the corporate news world.
Speaker 9: That's what if you want to find out what the
Speaker 9: news of the day is going to be. Just you
Speaker 9: look at the Adlon Martin, you look at what Fuss
Speaker 9: got to say. I think they really do need to
Speaker 9: look at those sites.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I actually look at Fox. I want to know
Speaker 7: what what what are the people? I mean, I checked
Speaker 7: out stories. I mean Rachel Maddow, she wrote a good book, Drift,
Speaker 7: before she got into corporate media. So I guess if
Speaker 7: I'm being paid thirty or forty million dollars a year,
Speaker 7: I'd changed my opinions to sell out.
Speaker 1: Thirty or forty you know, thirty or forty million dollars.
Speaker 2: There's probably a lot of things I would say for
Speaker 2: thirty or forty million dollars a year.
Speaker 7: A dollar, yeah, yeah, sure.
Speaker 9: Look at THEE got a contact going to CNN. All
Speaker 9: of sudden, Oh, he's all on board the Harnis train.
Speaker 9: He knows she's gonna win.
Speaker 2: And that is weird that as soon as he got
Speaker 2: completely integrated with the CNN and the whole of the company,
Speaker 2: you know, went outside of the HBO Max arena, all
Speaker 2: of a sudden, he's all in on on Harris. That
Speaker 2: was weird, Jimmy, and a good observation.
Speaker 6: Yeah, who was who were we talking about? I didn't
Speaker 6: hear the name of the person Jimmy was talking about
Speaker 6: that you said as Nollen with CNN. I just didn't
Speaker 6: hear the name.
Speaker 1: Oh, Bill Maher.
Speaker 2: You see his his show Really Real Time Now broadcasts
Speaker 2: on CNN as well. They started running real time on
Speaker 2: this sting and they stopped. You know, they were having
Speaker 2: trouble because of the F bombs at first, but they
Speaker 2: actually toned down his show so that they could play
Speaker 2: it on CNN also, so it's now.
Speaker 1: On HBO, HBO Max and Replay. It goes out in
Speaker 1: a podcast.
Speaker 2: Form and it goes out on CNN, which is a
Speaker 2: new addition because they're part of the same parent company.
Speaker 2: But anyway, ever since he went there, he's changed up
Speaker 2: a bit. Jimmy, wouldn't you.
Speaker 12: Say, I say so, Yeah, I mean something happened. Well anyway,
Speaker 12: I just saw, Yeah, go go ahead, Jimmy, I agreed.
Speaker 9: I said, Yeah, it's different show in the last few months.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but markedly different since that switch over to him
Speaker 2: being able to first play overtime on HBO, then the whole.
Speaker 1: Show is now shown on HBO for some reason. And
Speaker 1: by the way, he.
Speaker 2: Has a net worth of one hundred and sixty one
Speaker 2: hundred and sixty million dollars as of twenty twenty four,
Speaker 2: according to according to public reports, and receives a salary
Speaker 2: of twenty five million dollars a year. Bill maher So
Speaker 2: just telling you that's what that Real Time show is
Speaker 2: paying him out there. Plus he has a podcast of
Speaker 2: his own separate club club Stoner.
Speaker 1: I don't know something.
Speaker 2: I don't know the name of it, but he has
Speaker 2: a podcast of his own separate club random that's it.
Speaker 9: Yeah, that one better than the one well there.
Speaker 2: It's usually a one on one interview and quite often
Speaker 2: they have both just smoked a joint. Apparently that that's
Speaker 2: part of the pull of the show, right, Jimmy, Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's a.
Speaker 9: Better tick on the one on one interview with George
Speaker 9: celebrity he tries to get them getting off the guard.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know, getting them a little high probably helps.
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm just saying it's one of the things
Speaker 2: that he does there, and it is better.
Speaker 1: It is better than they open. See.
Speaker 2: The opening segment of Real Time for many years has
Speaker 2: been a featured interviewer one on one with Bill Maher.
Speaker 2: Then he goes to a panel and inserts different comedy
Speaker 2: bits throughout the panel as they face a bunch of
Speaker 2: questions that he has prepared. Then on the overtime, he
Speaker 2: goes to a thing where the audience asked questions through
Speaker 2: Twitter and stuff like that, which is really strange. Also,
Speaker 2: his show is no longer live, Jimmy, I don't know
Speaker 2: if you're aware of that, but it's always taped now,
Speaker 2: never live anymore.
Speaker 9: See, I knew that alone could totally change the show
Speaker 9: of atmosphere everything. Yeah, different animals.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, but for many years, you remember that that
Speaker 2: show was actually live on HBO, no matter what was going.
Speaker 2: Even that time that the nine to eleven truthers disrupted
Speaker 2: his show. I don't know if people remember that, but
Speaker 2: a bunch of people in his audience started jumping up
Speaker 2: and screaming nine to eleven as an inside job, and
Speaker 2: he literally, you know, went through this whole thing of
Speaker 2: having security removed them and it had to be all
Speaker 2: done live on air.
Speaker 1: That was some years ago, though. Do you recall that, Jimmy, Yeah, I.
Speaker 9: Think that's when he lost the politically kids, No, no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 2: He lost politically Incorrect for saying that the United States
Speaker 2: were a bunch of cowards and people that crashed planes
Speaker 2: into towers were not cowards. That's when he got kicked
Speaker 2: off of politically Incorrect. This is an incident I'm talking
Speaker 2: about live in the HBO studios on real time, which
Speaker 2: has been around twenty years or twenty something years, I
Speaker 2: think now. So no, this was an actual incident during
Speaker 2: real time, not politically incorrect.
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean he's he's I can't believe all the
Speaker 9: crack the last yeries calling people out. Man, I'm going
Speaker 9: to go work with Gail King. Gods CNN worked in
Speaker 9: election like this, you know, I'm why wouldn't I be
Speaker 9: on the CNN right?
Speaker 7: Right?
Speaker 2: So, with all of that having been said, anything else
Speaker 2: you want to address with Danny directly?
Speaker 7: No, I mean he had the questions, he said, how
Speaker 7: could some and have listen?
Speaker 9: Why? I mean I'm to answer any question?
Speaker 4: Why?
Speaker 9: I'm no.
Speaker 2: I think you make that case just about every week
Speaker 2: on this show. So all people would have to do
Speaker 2: is go back, go back and listen to your various
Speaker 2: discussions about it. So I don't have any questions personally
Speaker 2: about that anybody else on the co host.
Speaker 7: Team here, while.
Speaker 9: Danny was advanced corn bark Trump and stuff.
Speaker 7: It's fault.
Speaker 9: I got to watch something. Why I support Trump? I'm wrong?
Speaker 7: Answer?
Speaker 1: Okay, so Danny, I so Danny.
Speaker 2: In other words, do you have any questions for Jimmy
Speaker 2: James about his desire to support Trump?
Speaker 1: I guess is the overall thing here.
Speaker 2: And then after that, I'm going to ask the rest
Speaker 2: of the co host team if they have anything they'd
Speaker 2: like to add. So go ahead, Danny, any questions you
Speaker 2: want to ask of Jimmy James.
Speaker 7: No, No, I understand why why Jimmy supports Trump. I've
Speaker 7: just stated why. I don't right, and I respect everybody's opinion. Well,
Speaker 7: I don't think I've ever watched Bill Mark. I mean
Speaker 7: I've only seen clips of this show. I'm generally too boozy,
Speaker 7: working sixty plus hours a week. I just don't really
Speaker 7: watch the lether cable news shows. So in the lobby celebrities,
Speaker 7: the one hundred and sixty million dollars, I mean, I
Speaker 7: mean that's a lot of money.
Speaker 1: Well, that's his network.
Speaker 7: Rachel, Yeah, Rachel Maddo that wrote a ship book. She's
Speaker 7: sure has gone.
Speaker 1: The other one.
Speaker 7: I mean, I'm not sure to up money by the price.
Speaker 1: Yeah for sure.
Speaker 2: I you know, Matt, How's a mess. I can't even
Speaker 2: follow that nonsense. And I can't stand to look at
Speaker 2: her very long now. Listening to her is just about
Speaker 2: his nauseating, So you know, it is what it is.
Speaker 2: I can't stand her. But Bill Mahers is a guy
Speaker 2: who I actually used to like at a certain point,
Speaker 2: but no longer I can't handle him. He's a complete
Speaker 2: contradiction in my mind.
Speaker 1: The only thing that's been consistent is.
Speaker 2: This cannabis advocacy in my brain. But you know that's
Speaker 2: me in my opinion, right, forget about all that. The
Speaker 2: thing that's interesting to me at this point though, is
Speaker 2: that he's making twenty five million per year. So he's
Speaker 2: got a network of one hundred and sixty and his
Speaker 2: current salary is twenty five million that they know of
Speaker 2: as of twenty twenty four. But I wonder if it's
Speaker 2: going up considering that he's now broadcast throughout the rest
Speaker 2: of the corporate NT assets because he's now on CNN,
Speaker 2: which Jimmy James and I both agree has radically changed
Speaker 2: to show.
Speaker 9: So yeah, good I'll bet you'll get a big race.
Speaker 7: I bet.
Speaker 9: I mean, CNN's going to have to give it the
Speaker 9: salary teno.
Speaker 6: So.
Speaker 2: Maybe, you know, maybe, And what can I say for
Speaker 2: somebody who's getting that much money, I say, you know what,
Speaker 2: go for it.
Speaker 1: If you can get it, go get it.
Speaker 2: But I don't know if he's any longer speaking from
Speaker 2: his heart or his principles. I don't know, because it's
Speaker 2: getting really weird and a lot of things don't make sense.
Speaker 2: I mean, the guy who is very much on board
Speaker 2: with you know, religion is stupid and atheism is the
Speaker 2: only thing that makes sense.
Speaker 1: And that's Bill Mars's position, not mine.
Speaker 2: But when he's saying that and at the same time
Speaker 2: is willing to talk about how you know, God promised
Speaker 2: the land Israel, though.
Speaker 1: There's something wrong in that equation.
Speaker 2: And I'm not saying that you can't believe either one,
Speaker 2: but how do you hold both things?
Speaker 1: Oh? Wait? Is that called cognitive dissonance? I think it is.
Speaker 2: You know, if you're a devout atheist and you're telling
Speaker 2: me that everybody who believes in God is stupid, and
Speaker 2: yet you think that God gave this land to a
Speaker 2: certain people, and you think that is a just that
Speaker 2: that's getting weird to me. But he's been on that kick.
Speaker 2: He's definitely pro Israel at this point. He's definitely pro
Speaker 2: a lot of weird things. And the fact that he
Speaker 2: jumps onto the Kamala bandwagon. I mean, we knew he
Speaker 2: was anti Trump, But does that mean that you also
Speaker 2: got to be happy about Kamala running against him?
Speaker 1: No, I don't think so.
Speaker 2: Anyway, With all that having been said, let's go to
Speaker 2: the rest of the team before we run completely out
Speaker 2: of time. Joe, I got a feeling you just want
Speaker 2: to sit and smile, right.
Speaker 6: I'm always smiling anymore.
Speaker 13: But I will add, yeah, I don't support any of
Speaker 13: these politicians and I cannot understand why anyone does.
Speaker 2: I know it. And on the other hand, Captain Tripps,
Speaker 2: he might understand why some people support certain people, but
Speaker 2: still sees the chaos. And oh, by the way, would
Speaker 2: you take French rise from Donald Trump?
Speaker 1: Captain Trips?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 6: And you know, the truth of the matter is at
Speaker 6: my baseline, I'm I'm more on the on the level
Speaker 6: of Joe. I mean, I can I mean, I did
Speaker 6: vote in twenty twenty two. I can't tell you the
Speaker 6: last time I voted before that, and in general, I agree,
Speaker 6: I think, and I'll be honest, I mean, I'm not
Speaker 6: I'm not gonna lie. Some of the words that are
Speaker 6: coming out of Trump's mouth now, some of the things
Speaker 6: he's talking about, if they happened, I think would be good.
Speaker 6: I don't necessarily believe that, even if he truly wants
Speaker 6: to do certain things, that he'll get it through. Quite frankly,
Speaker 6: I mean, I follow the betting markets as far as
Speaker 6: you know who I think is leading. I don't you know,
Speaker 6: to me, polls are far too subject to sampling bias.
Speaker 6: I mean, I know how to do research, so I
Speaker 6: know how they're getting these polls. And you go to
Speaker 6: the right place, you can get any poll you want,
Speaker 6: result you want. Betting markets tell you something different. But
Speaker 6: what I'm getting at is, I'm still not sure that
Speaker 6: if he wins, that they're gonna let him take office.
Speaker 6: I really and I'm not sure. I don't know, you know,
Speaker 6: it makes me wonder. So he's had you know, the
Speaker 6: two whatever, whatever the assassination attempts were, we've you know,
Speaker 6: we've had two of them that they're they're saying occurred.
Speaker 6: It does make me wonder if they really I find
Speaker 6: it hard to believe that the intelligence services of this country,
Speaker 6: if they really wanted to take him out, couldn't and
Speaker 6: they haven't. So part of me almost wonders, are they
Speaker 6: do they want him to win because they're expecting the
Speaker 6: whole damn thing to fall apart and they want to
Speaker 6: pin it on him, or are they going to let
Speaker 6: him go through the process. And you know, at the
Speaker 6: end of the day, whoever is, whoever is is declared
Speaker 6: winner of this ship show that we're about to walk into.
Speaker 6: It's Kamala Harris that at the end of the day
Speaker 6: has to certify that election. Yeah, because she's the sitting
Speaker 6: vice president, she's she's the president of the Senate, just
Speaker 6: like in two thousand it was Al Gore that had
Speaker 6: to certify that he lost. You know, I think we're
Speaker 6: in a different place twenty four years later, or you know,
Speaker 6: twenty three years later than we were then. So I
Speaker 6: don't know. I mean, and again, I'm not a huge
Speaker 6: Trump supporter. I'm not a huge Trump fan. I am
Speaker 6: I'll be honest. I am going to go and I
Speaker 6: am going to vote for him, but I'm not so
Speaker 6: much voting for him as this time, I am really
Speaker 6: voting to stop the people that are there now. And
Speaker 6: although I don't think Kamala Harris is in charge of
Speaker 6: Jack's Slott, whoever is pulling her strings I think is
Speaker 6: very dangerous at this point.
Speaker 1: There you go. So that's what it is. It's an
Speaker 1: anti vote, and it looks like you're going to go
Speaker 1: for Trump.
Speaker 6: So with that, let's give you the FINALSTI vote.
Speaker 1: There you go.
Speaker 2: So with that, let's give you the final surprise for
Speaker 2: the night. With the final couple of minutes, it's the
Speaker 2: return of BPTE. And I just turned the floor over
Speaker 2: to you, sir, and you're probably going to get in
Speaker 2: the last word here on the Friday Night open Mic
Speaker 2: before we turn it over to the Age of Transitions
Speaker 2: with Aaron Franz. But be Pete has rejoined us rather late,
Speaker 2: but there he is, and he's been waiting on hold.
Speaker 2: How you doing, brother, You got a couple of minutes
Speaker 2: to run with whatever you want.
Speaker 7: Hight Chuck, longtime listener. First on caller, I'd like to
Speaker 7: address the general. The general, you know, just this direction of.
Speaker 14: Tonight.
Speaker 6: You know, we got a guy sitting over there that
Speaker 6: just lost some major poundage.
Speaker 7: He's smiling like a pig and a pile of it.
Speaker 7: We should be partying.
Speaker 15: We shouldn't be discussing such depressing things as elections and
Speaker 15: things like that.
Speaker 1: But we're all collectively happy for him.
Speaker 14: Go ahead, we are because when I had my massive
Speaker 14: weight loft, it took three lawyers and it was about
Speaker 14: one hundred and fifty pounds.
Speaker 7: So that's fifty pounds for lawyer, so not all Hey.
Speaker 2: No lawyers, Hey look, no lawyers for me and over
Speaker 2: three hundred pounds brothers, So I got you both beat
Speaker 2: in one shot.
Speaker 1: White Godzilla is a thing. Go ahead.
Speaker 14: Yeah, Unfortunately people have to go through that, but we
Speaker 14: shoe celebrate Joe's.
Speaker 7: Achievements.
Speaker 14: I mean, it's something to drop that much weight, and
Speaker 14: you gotta feel good.
Speaker 15: Anybody that's gone through it is during this you know,
Speaker 15: was in the same situation, walk around like a chest cat.
Speaker 1: The first year they broke into a pet store and
Speaker 1: ate a whole tank of goldfish. But go ahead. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But other than that, I mean, yeah, so it is,
Speaker 1: we need to do something Tuesday night.
Speaker 14: It sounds like something good. We can just bring up
Speaker 14: dirt stories on both candidates the whole time as we
Speaker 14: watch the totals come in.
Speaker 7: Update for you sports fans.
Speaker 14: Out there, and apparently Chuck is won when it's the
Speaker 14: World Series and got Dodgers playing the Yankees. But New
Speaker 14: York is up two to one in the bottom of
Speaker 14: the sixth Uh no out. So hang in there, a
Speaker 14: La scored first, they'll come back.
Speaker 1: I want the yea.
Speaker 15: Let's do some to the election night and everybody can
Speaker 15: call in and like I said, we'll just we'll see
Speaker 15: who has the best dirt stories on each candidate, right
Speaker 15: and just go around the table because by then it
Speaker 15: won't matter.
Speaker 2: And you know what's said is I thought we were
Speaker 2: going to wind up talking about Israel attacking Iran, you know,
Speaker 2: for most of the show, and I'm the only one
Speaker 2: who brought it up.
Speaker 1: So blah blah, here we are. Well, you know, we
Speaker 1: knew this was coming.
Speaker 14: But something that's very interesting is they held off when
Speaker 14: they were going to do this because some of their
Speaker 14: plans were leaked. And they're looking at the leak and
Speaker 14: apparently there's been an individual working as an assistant to
Speaker 14: a secretary in a Department of Defense way on up
Speaker 14: there that has some questionable ties to Iran and apparently
Speaker 14: that might be where the league was.
Speaker 7: So that's what kills me about this administration.
Speaker 14: There was so much worried about this powder keg in
Speaker 14: the Middle East, and we've got people supposedly our sworn enemy,
Speaker 14: I mean, the number one sponsor of terrorists in the
Speaker 14: region according to all everybody apparently has gottenn In in
Speaker 14: our defense department.
Speaker 7: I'll find that utterly amazing.
Speaker 2: And meanwhile they're asking you to say, you know what
Speaker 2: it might be Hasbala, it might be Hamas, and most
Speaker 2: people can't keep them separate or straight as the story goes.
Speaker 2: But I'm telling you, it's the only thing that's made
Speaker 2: me nervous thus far is the fact that they said
Speaker 2: they were hitting targets that were military targets in Tehran.
Speaker 2: But anyway, to be continued, and as always with next
Speaker 2: week because we're out of time. So with that, guys,
Speaker 2: and with thanks to all of my co hosts, Jimmy James,
Speaker 2: Regular Joe, Captain Trips and b Pete dropping in for
Speaker 2: the Closer as the Closer for the night, and I
Speaker 2: hope somebody closes the damn door on the Yankees tonight
Speaker 2: and knocks them out in that first game, and at
Speaker 2: least deflates them morally before it all gets rolling, because
Speaker 2: I'm not rooting for them in the world series.
Speaker 1: Age of Transitions is up next. I am merely O'Kelly.
Speaker 1: All of you are indeed the effect. Good Night,
