I just I can't not do it. So we're going to work on a different menu next time. But everything else was phenomenal. Corns, we pulled the stalks. We they pulled the stalks up. I've been working on a mouse problem. So that was what happens this time of years when it starts getting cold and it's colder there than here. They all try to go indoors. So your garages, you need to put your mouse traps out now, the corners of your buildings, your little storage areas. I've got five mouse traps up in the room and there's ten in the kitchen. Ever tell you about the time I tried to catch a mouse in my old house in Somerset. So I heard I could hear them in you know, the little calls in the wall. Get it bi Well, I set it out and then it was gone. And then I set another one out and it was gone, and I was like, what in the hell? And I could hear it hit and I'd go up there and be gone, And I was like, man, is this like no man left behind? Like the other mice getting and they just pulling to the side. And I don't know where the trap is, like it's I could send the insulation. I can't find it. I have no idea what's going on. So then I got a bigger trap, thinking, well, must be like a super mouse. And what it was is I caught a flying squirrel. It was a flying squirrel. It was it was them up in my Did you keep it? Is it endangered? I'm just gonna ask that before I answer it. Any other questions, does anyone know if they're in dangered? Oh that's crazy. Anyway, problem solved. It was a bigger, bigger mouse, Well I thought, anyway, I just uh, so, here's what I'm doing. I'm our guest has showed up, which, okay, we'll get to that in just a few minutes. But well we'll just rework. Were going to get through the drama and then we'll maybe before sports. Yes, no, it's great, so long as we still get a half at it. I have to tell the mouse thing. So here's what I This is what I'm doing. I'm taking a laundry bag with me, so I take new stuff with me and just strip everything and bring everything back. And so that way when I go, everything's fresh, linens, everything. Because Ashley cleans it. Don't lie, no I do. You can't do laundry at the river, you know that you're limited on water. But anyway, so we've got fresh stuff when we go. Thank you, Ashley. I mean your little head will be slipping on a fresh pillow. Well, I appreciate it. Yeah, it's good. We need to decide when we're going next two weeks. Musseler I can't. Brad said, you said you got a. Doctor's appointment, and then Logan's got a surgery the following week. Well, I gotta figure out, yes you will, all right, moving on this day in history. No bumper needed, just letting you know right on it. I saw the finger. Well, I was just preparing. I didn't think you wanted it. That's okay, none of us. In nineteen eighty three, taypo on my print, good edit on myst part. Yeah, the barracks in Beirut. Yeah, we're attacked with suicide bomber, killing two hundred and forty one serviceman. I was thirteen years old, and that is other than Ronald Reagan before that in nineteen eighty or eighty one. That's the first big news memory that I remember. My dad, who was a marine at the time. I mean that's his I mean, you. Know, my dad is. Thirty two years old at the time. Yeah, thirty yeah, thirty three years old, so he's in the prime of his career. Those are coworkers that got bombed, you know what I'm saying. Oh yeah, because the marine are the few, that's right. They're proud and I remember him being riveted to the news during that time. Well, I got listen. It leads me into you got something for this day in history? Me? Yeah, well, I mean I don't want to interrupt what you got. Well, I'm gonna slip right into drama because it kind of ties into my drama that I'm watching. The history I had was in two thousand and two, same sort of thing. Fifty Chechian rebels. Do you remember this story went into the theater in Russia? Yes, yeahah, yeah, yeah. Do you remember what they did? I do not. The Chechian rebels were Chechenyan rebels were Muslim, and they did not like that they didn't have freedom of religion. So they really wanted to go after Russia. Putin was not quite was. Not the prime minister, or he was newly elected, whatever it was. They said they're going to take over and they are not letting any of these eight hundred hostages go until So it was eight hundred people ended up being one hundred and twenty people. I don't know what happened between the eight hundred and one hundred and twenty. For fifty seven hours they held at the Good Lord and then Russia went in. They were strapped. The fifty people were strapped with bombs. Lord have they been a movie of this? Not that I'm awa, But. Then Russia piped in gas to make them all sleep. That's how they were going to get them. The problem was they didn't sleep. Even the hostages died. They pumped in enough gas that they all died. Wow yeah yeah, all right, Uh drama. What I was going to tell you? I got you off. You're welcome here. So I've been watching this new series called Deep State and it's listen. I can't I cannot tell you how horribly bad the cinematography is and the acting like it's made off of phone worse, it's like it's made off of a flip phone. It's but the storyline is phenomenal. And I'm telling you, it's almost like it it's Member Sopranos. How real it was? This just it just makes you scratch your What platforms it on? Netflix? No? Amazon Prime? And it's just check that one out, dude. It's it's black rock, is what it is. I mean, it's basically the CIA doing stuff in Beirut and places like that, basically keeping war moving and all that stuff just to funnel money. And you just it's like is this not what's happening? I mean, yeah, it's crazy how all this stuff is happening. But it's worth checking out because it's it is a very good storyline. It kind of reminds me of what you're saying. And I watched the first season or two, oh dag on it, the the thing about the Congressman Kevin Spacey House of Cards, House of Cards, where you go, this is obviously how government actually works. Sure, right, So it sounds like Deep State's probably the same thing. Yeah, exactly. I mean, it's the stuff that is in there actually happened. So there's a story that didn't. It stuck with me because I thought that sounds kind of weird. And in two thousand and eight, let's see when so Bush was elected in two thousand and two thousand and four. Obama came two thousand and eight, twenty twelve. So in two thousand and. Eight, Bush is on his way out right, And I remember an interview at the time, and I'm thirty eight years old, and he says, you know what becoming president? You know how he talked, Yeah, you know, becoming president and you get there and you have all these ideas and then you just really realize you're you're just part of the government, right, you really don't make any changes. It's already running. And I thought that was eye opening to me because I was like, well, you're the president of the United States. Now fast forward eight years after that, Trump is in the White House and you remember how the battle he had. Yeah, it just seemed eye opening to me again that you're the president. You're the one elected. We want you to shape the government, and the government is the deep state. Is fighting you? Sure? It's yeah. Do you know you know the guy that's taken over as the number one podcast, Joe Rogan's number one, But this guy whatever, the next category is tiktoks whatever is Sean Ryan. He's the one that does so. He's the one that does interviews of military men and all that. I don't even know who he was interviewing. I don't know who. The guy was phenomenal. I kept trying to see who is he interviewing. This guy was so phenomenal. I mean, he was so amusing your word. He was so he was in the Trump White House and he was saying. The thing that made him the most upset during the Trump administration was everybody argues about their point, and Trump had so many people from different viewpoints that he had to make the decision, and oftentimes it was against what somebody had argued, which you think that's the way it always is, but the guy's like, it's not always like that. But in Trump's administration it was the problem was when Trump told the other person that lost, we're going to go with the other guy. That guy would not go do what he was told to go do. He would slow walk. Yeah, so he never did make the change because he didn't agree with Trump. God, that's what's got to change. Yes, it does, all right.

Republican candidate for Ward one Lynchburg City Council Jackal and Timber. Hi, how are y'all? I'm good. How are you doing well? It's good to see you back. Yeah, thanks for having me. It's fun to be back. The studio looks great, by the way. Thank you. In middle of April. Middle of April, I think was when she was here. Oh yeah, we've even got We've got a whole new war rooms. That's what I was told. Yeah, it's uh, it's crazy around here. So things have grown. What he's gotten famous. He's got a national program that comes on Vince Ellison. Is he recording here, Vince? That's Vince's We call it Studio V because that's where Vince does his program big time. Yes, it's huge. It looks like a like a c I or Elon musk desk over there. Yeah, like thirty monitors going, I'm. Gonna I'm gonna check it out before I have Oh cool. To see it. All right, Well tell us all right, so you've you're in the campaign mode. You get what two weeks left? Yeah, just under two weeks. All right, Well tell us what's going on, what's the progress, what's what are we looking on? Well, you know, it's a lot of door knocking. What local campaigns are so meeting as many people as possible and having the conversations. It's it's going really well. I'm honored by the support. I'm honored by the questions. You know, I get a lot of good questions. So, you know, just getting out as much as possible. Cool. Yeah, it's gonna be a tight one. It's gonna be a tight one. So so going door to door has got to be the anxiety. That's so I put myself in your spot. I want to go run or anything like that. But just going door to door and you're knocking, you have no idea what's on the other side of the door, whether they even come to the door. Yeah, you know, and then just out of the blue they're going to ask you something or you have no preparation at all. So so you're going let's. Say you hit a whole neighborhood or you've done these neighborhoods. What's the resounding quot or what's the theme or what are people what are you learning or what was there something eye opening? Or is it just something you always. Expected when you went door to door that you were going to get asked these questions. Yeah, I mean a lot of it's different by neighborhood, which is kind of interesting. You'll hit a theme particular part of the ward that you don't hear in another part of the ward. You know, there's always the conversation around civility right now in Lynchburg's council, and so that's a big question that people want to talk about. But a lot of people are just tired of that conversation and want to get back to issues, and so they're like, hey, how do we transition this. How do we get back to a place where we're getting things. Done in our community and how do we come to a place where we're working together again? And ultimately, I don't know if we discussed this last time, but that's why I was asked to run because of my background and building bipartisan coalitions. I'm conservative Republican, but I've worked with people. Across the board and so that's why I was asked to run, and that's where we want to go. That's awesome. Yeah, it's good. Earlier we had just three weeks ago. I think it was Jeff Hegelson was on. Jeff did twenty twenty years. I think it's but you know, when Jeff started, he was the Loan council. Now it's kind of flipped, but we have the infighting that's going on. We need a good fresh face, fresh faces, I should say. And so are you seeing the excitement when you're going door to door or people not motivated in this election or you see in the opposite you know. I'm seeing a split back. So some people are tired of the Republican label because of what they've seen on council. But with that, I'm seeing a new energy of hey, this is actually how. We want to move forward. When I'm able to have a conversation with people about policies and where we can go as a city, there's excitement around that and there's a real desire to move in that direction. So I'm hoping we do it. Have you had to do any type of have you done a debate yet? I mean that I've done. Four Well, no, We've done three forums. We've got one coming up on the twenty eighth on WL and IK. Yeah. Three forums. How's that going? How have you feelt about that? I'd love for you to watch them and for you to tell me. I mean, I really differentiate from my opponents on issues. I really differentiate from them financially. When it comes to economic opportunity. I'm really the only one that's put forward an economic plan of hey, here's how we can grow our city and create economic opportunity from decreasing dependency hurdles with those that are on government assistance, where we turn that into an on ramp rather than an iron ceiling. You don't want multi generational government dependence. A lot of people who are in that position don't want it either, And we can tweak some things where it actually enables them to get off in a way that's dignified, not where it's kicking them off and harming them because they need those benefits for a time. So there are some things we can do at the local level to adjust that, and think about the additional city revenue when you move those people from a place where they're dependent on government services to then being able to contribute into the economy, the local economy, and then also it adds human dignity. So I've been meeting with people about how we do that with inner department agreements, some different non profit pilots we can do. And then I've also been exploring what we can do in the small business community. And there's a lot. I mean, you all don't have the business license tax out here, correct, We have it in Lynchburg, and we have it on the gross and so you think about a service based business. That's why we've got all that congestion of those car dealerships just across the line where they've moved out because of the business license tax. And then you've got red tape on business expansion. And I've heard it time and time again. So there's a lot that we can do in Lynchburg that would foster economic growth and enable us to keep our taxes lower for citizens. And I'm the only one who's put anything forward on that. So there are a lot of distinctions. I don't want to raise the real estate tax rate. My independent opponent has openly said in a forum that's what she desires to do. She wants to decrease the car tax, but she wants to increase the real estate tax, and she attributes that to renters. But honestly, if you raise the real estate tax, the renters are going to absorb that cost. So it's not looking at a at a holistic perspective there. And then my Democrat opponent, he's not talking about any of that. I'm not quite sure what he's proposing in that regard, honestly. So you have three people, you have three people people running and so two lady conservatives. Is that what's going on? And she's an independent? How is that? How did she get into the race? Yeah, so she hopped in as an independent. She has voted in the last two Democrat primaries. I've heard different positions on whether she leans conservative or whether she leans more liberal. This is a W. L and I quote, and this is where I see a distinction. I see a distinction on policy, and I see a distinction on leadership experience and on WL and I. She said, you know, Republicans think I'm Republican, Democrats think I'm Democrat. And I think that's the goal because we're all Lynchburgers, and I understand the desire to move to a place where local politics doesn't have partisan affiliations. I understand that sentiment because we don't want national issues infiltrating the local level. But at the same time, if you look at the past twenty years where it's really been a Democrat majority Lynchburg, taxes have gone up, school buildings have deteriorated. These things are coming from a partisan perspective on how you approach fiscal decisions and how you prioritize, and so you can't just say, you know, I have no affiliation and therefore I'm good to go. That ultimately becomes well, who'd you eat breakfast with that morning and what was the last thing that you heard would be beneficial, rather than a frame of reference that you make decisions from. And so I see that as a huge leadership distinction. And as the campaign has continued, I have seen the trend move more fiscally, where she's looking at where can we grab money rather than where can we foster a thriving economic environment. Have you spoken with former council members who have been on council, whether it be Democrat or Republican and sort of how the process works. Yeah, yes, I've spoken with a number of former council members, both Democrat, and Republican. I would say that is probably the best advice I could give anyone is just understanding that once you get in, it's a it's not what I thought it was, and it you know, I came in a guns and blazon and I thought I was going to change everything, and then you start to realize, Listen, it's a process, and it's not. It's not the process with the elected officials that you're going to have an issue with. It's going to be the process with those who work within the city, within the city walls, that are creating the budgets, that are doing all the things, and learning how that whole process is. And I relied heavily on for former council members to do that because I had no clue I thought I did. I thought maybe the thing that stuck with me most in our interview with Jeff was he brought up something that I thought, it's the first time someone's expressed that to me that I've ever heard that phraseology was I'm elected by the people. I will listen to staff, but my job is not to approve what staff thinks correct. My job is to approve what the people elected me to do. And I thought man. That is just a very cool way to look at That is what a councilman does, and he really did a great job of that. He put down what's the necessity, what's a luxury, and he would that's the way he would decide things. It was really a neat, neat way to look at it. Something that you said that really struck me was about the real estate taxes and talking about staff. So I've done numerous numerous projects. I'm an engineer and I've done numerous projects in the city and I was talking to city staff about a year ago and the staff member said, well, we're not sure we're going to do many more projects because we've lost so much in budget. And I was like, well, I'm not sure that you are, and he goes, yeah, the real estate we've lost so much. Well, my brother and I we have four rental units. In the city. We literally just paid because this is the first round right now is the first round in four that's okay. We're literally paying the same thing we paid last year. I mean in the year before. We're within five dollars of each unit. So there wasn't a loss in budget. It was because they reduced the tax rate but because everything had assessed so much higher, it ended up equaling out correct, so they didn't lose budget. It's just a way of thinking. But if I'd listened to a staff member, I would have thought we'd made cuts. Well, this came up in a forum just recently, and it actually wasn't my opponent. We were all in a line as far as the different city council candidates, and one individual said, we've lost seventeen million dollars in revenue, and it was like, well, hold on a second, that wasn't seventeen million loss from the previous year. That's seventeen million in potential gains. Kept the rate the same with the valuation increase, and that all be coming from taxpayer dollars, which sucks it out of the economy to begin with. That's gonna hurt. That's gonna hurt a lot of things. So the way that these word games happen around finances is a huge deal. And I do just want to say, you know, there are a lot of great people on the city staff. It's not that they're the enemy, but there has to be this back And I'm not saying y'all are saying that I'm saying that because we're live and I want to clarify this, but you know, there has to be that back and forth element where and this differentiates me from my Democrat opponent. He's like, well, we just need to trust the experts and what they say. And it's like, okay, the experts are there to serve their role, but so are the elected officials and that is so significant, and so what is that interplay in that dynamic in order to move to the place where it's Okay, this is what the people elected me to do. This is where we need to go, and we're going to rely on this element of expertise. But it doesn't mean you know, it's not a rubber stamp position, and I think so often it can be viewed as that, and that's not what it is. It's uncomfortable. It's going to be uncomfortable. Yeah, I mean, could you imagine if the paper's read that we're proposing a seventeen million dollar tax increase, right, I mean, because that's essentially what it would it would have been, Yeah, exact, they never write that part. And so that is the battle that you have, and you know you've got so I guess one of the things that I've always been curious. What's hard with local elections? Yeah, you don't have polsters. Right, right, so you don't true so you have. No clue going into elections. Yeah. Yeah, you have feelings that you kind of you if you've been out there knocking on doors, right, so you kind of feel like, all right, you know, but you never really know. Yeah, I mean, and I'll see you hustling. Your signs are everywhere. I applaud you on your own. We put up thirty more yesterday. Yeah, we had run out of signs and we put up thirty more. So so what what give me the Ward one lines? Where is that located? Yeah? So it's greater Boonsboro area and there are some parts off old forests that a lot of people don't realize are actually in Ward one, which really works to our advantage in this election, I believe, just because they're lower propensity voters on a traditional like off year cycle, but with the presidential year, I think that that will be more in our favor. As far as the Republican ticket, now, it's a little bit tricky because historically there's so much absentee voting in Ward one, and. That's not counted in the precinct. So you really can't quite look at previous elections and say this is where the line falls, because then it'd be about sixty forty Republican, but with the absentee precinct, it's really fifty to fifty. So with the three. Way race, it's essentially you know if the Independent has more Republican friends or Democrat friends on the day of the election. Wow, you mentioned something that was interesting to me that you can go from one neighborhood and what's important is not the same thing you hear in another note. Yet. So I was doing a project one time and it was a part in Lynchburg, and I'll never forget this. When we were there most of the time, it's grading issues, it's drainage issues, it's those kind of things. And a lady came out to me and said, I hope you guys are bringing better lighting. Yeah, that's come up. Yeah, And what she said was the police officers have a hard time finding the bullet shells because there's not the lighting is not good enough. And like she literally said that to me, not to enhance about the casings the shells trying to find them. She was literally saying it's hard for them to find the casings, And I thought, what neighborhood do you live in that. I don't that that is an important part to you. I mean she said it like I would say it's raining outside. She just said it was normal. And I know there has been some safety concerns recently in Lynchburg. Have you heard anything like that and do you have any ideas? Do you have thoughts that can make things better? So, I mean public safety is huge for any community. And I'm not saying we have a defund the police problem in Lynchburg. I'm not saying that at all, But on the police is a first world problem. You're not going to hear that anywhere else. So when it comes to that, we have to support our officers. We really do. Now, there are two components of it. There's prevention and then there's response. And prevention is actually a very important part of that. And our schools are struggling. So if you look at seventh grade. Sols, and I'm going to come back to that in just a second. But if you look at seventh grade SOLS, twenty four of twenty eight tests have declined since pre COVID, And then If you take that further, thirteen of those tests have declined more than twenty percent, and three of those tests have declined more than forty percent. So geometry is down fifty six percent from pre COVID. That's a major problem. And we're talking about a lot of elements within the schools, but we've got to get back to a place where performance is key. Absolutely. Now some people have great experiences with the public schools, and I've heard from parents on both sides, but when those are the numbers, we've really got to take a hard look at that. Another thing driving crime is fatherlessness. Statistically, it drives crime. So when there's a one percent increase in fatherlessness within a neighborhood, there's a three percent predictable increase in crime in that same neighborhood. So the fatherlessness issue is huge. Now, as government, you don't go in and demand the nuclear family, so to speak. But there are church groups, there are nonprofit groups, there are opportunities. Actually there was a lunch today and I stopped in. They are focusing on how can we tackle the fatherlessness issue in our community, whether through mentoring, through encouraging dads and celebrating their role and teaching them about it. There's a lot that we can do there. So there's a prevention piece that's really needed. The response piece. Our officers are amazing. There's been a lot of strides in the past really two years to fund the police better, to deal with the retention issues through making sure that there are benefits and people are having increasing salary that mirrors the state police in a way that's sustainable. Now there are about twenty five positions that were previously acknowledged that are needed within the force because of the growth of Lynchburg that just haven't been approved as part of the force. That would have to be done gradually, but I think we need to move in that direction. The other thing is CTOs. So the state has a mental health crisis. I mean, we've got it going on nationally, but at the state level, we've really got an issue when it comes to essentially court orders that takes police officers off the street to sit with mental health patients in the hospitals. It's unfunded mandate. Yeah, it's terrible, and you'll get five to six officers off the street at a time. So there's a pilot program that's being initiated right now with Horizon Health. That would include mental health professionals that take over that part of the process and it relieves and alleviates the officer to go back to the street. So we need to look. At that as a community and say, Okay, how are we going to continue this process so that we're not getting heavily impacted by that problem where our officers are driving to Williamsburg because that's where the open bed is. Yeah, and then what's worse about it? Like everything nowadays is technology, right, except they got to pick up a phone and call to figure out whether there's a bed available, and they're literally like thumbing through a book trying to figure out find a bed for one. And you're telling me we can go book a hotel from my phone and I can check in and check out for my phone, but I can't find a bed for a patient. That's such a great point. It's sad. Yeah. Yeah, Yet we spend billions of dollars on mental health and it seems like we never tackle the problem. Yeah. Yeah, well I mean I won't go there because but yeah, it's it's a big problem. Yeah. Unfunded, get used to it, unfunded, manded, no fun, no fun, They're not they are not. I'm just telling you, but no, we're excited about it that it's getting close. It gets nerve wracking the last couple of weeks and then afterwards, hopefully we'll be celebrating the victory and have you back on what's your last push these last two weeks. It's doors. We're at doors. As you know, we're at doors as much as possible. So that's the biggie. Well, I tell you were here in April and you were just announcing, and you were starting, and you wanted to get through the primary and then you were going to put out your policies and that idea, and there's thoughts. I can tell you. From April to where we are now, you have really worked on it. Oh. I mean you're on top of your game. I mean the stuff that you just brought today was astounding. I mean that's incredible. You've got a lot of research. Yeah, check out the website. I've got the economic, the education, we've we've been diving in. So we're here to do the work. Give everybody the website. Vote Timer dot com, vote dot t, I M M E R okay. And I have to say, just because this didn't come up, I had I moved here in high school. I don't know if you all know that. One of the things that does come up at the doors, you learn the rumors about yourself that aren't true, or you learn your motivation things. So I have recently learned that I moved to Lynchburg two years ago to run for city council. Oh wow, which I know. I know I was recruited. So no, that is not true. I actually moved her in high school. I've spent most of my adult life here and moved back to be close to family when we decided to start around. Oh gosh, what is it is that? That's right? The New Covenant? Yeah? Oh yeah, yeah, that's what we did. That was our chair. You know, it's it's unfortunate, but you know it's it was fun. That's cute. Yeah, all right, before you left. Now, last time, we always asked this question. I know I've been thinking about it. Okay, that's what I wanted to know. So if you could spend your day with anyone in history or anyone, and we told you not to use your dad last time, and then you used Daniels who you'd spend your day with. But now that you've thought about it. We've given you a few months. Again, if you had a day that you could spend with anyone, who would it be and where would you go? Okay, So last time I did say Daniel because he had a spirit of excellence and that's why they wanted to kill him. This time it would be John Quincy. Adams because he fought for the abolition of slavery his whole political career. He was all about it, but he didn't see the fruition of it, and so I would love to talk to him about spending his life towards something that he didn't see realized, because I don't think we have enough of that in our culture anymore. That's great. Probably love hearing about it too. Yeah, that's awesome. Thank you again for coming back. Yeah, thank you come back after the election. Yeah, I'd love to do it. All right, We're going to talk about how it is as a counselwoman. I hope, so, I hope I know it. Yeah, we'll give you the life liberty happiness bump. We're awesome, all right, thank you, all right? Thanks, all right, moving on to sports. It's time for sports. All right, man, what a great segment had to tell her before she left. I was just impressed, Oh very much. So gosh, I wish We've got to figure out I'm just being blunt with you right now. We've got to find qualified people like her, yes, in the town of Bedford, that can help us. I'm just saying it's turned into now. I mean there's a there's a good group for the most part running this time. But I mean we don't have business leaders and focused people like that running anymore. And that's the way it used to be. Like I Republican or Democrat. I respected some of the old timers that did their time. And you know, I saw Mayor Hutcherson yesterday at the depot. I was having lunch. He was one of my He was my one of my favorite favorite mayors the gun. He just helped move things along. That's what Jeff Heilgieson talked about how much he admired when he ran. The Anyway, great technical move on to sports, Yes, Sirry Tennessee. Yeah, big upset this weekend. Oh Man top ten moment, good old Rocky day. Why are you clapping? Because I know Trent had to be so happy, like ecstatic. I was thinking about it. People didn't think Ema likes me, but she secretly does. Not like that, not like that. I mean, well, I didn't you get your head on it. Of course I didn't know. I didn't mean that pop yelling at my producer. Yeah, anyway, that was I'll be honest with you, I didn't see. I really thought the way Alabama looked in the first half and how bad Tennessee looked in the first half. I literally said, if you're Tennessee, you have to be tickled to death, absolutely that you're here. Because but even then though, I mean, let's I mean, I was, I felt confident because if they could play and I'll say that poorly, but honestly, man, somebody, some teams misconstrue poorly with good defense, those defenses where they're just knocking the hell out of each other. And he's missing some passes, but you forget he's got somebody coming right into his chest. Yeah, I mean, those are passes he misses. But dag on it. It was. It was such a good game. I guess I was coupling the Arkansas game with they struggled offensively and now a whole half they just couldn't seem to get their feet and I'm like, ah, man with young college kids that can start snowballing. But then at the same time, I'm like, whoo, there was a striking distance here. Yeah, and you just felt like all they needed was a play or two and sure enough, that's it was enough. Very exciting, very exciting. Yeah, I was. At the same time. Bill Row is one of those athletes that is perplexing because it's almost like he do you remember when Nick Saban had Jalen Hurts and Jalen was the you know, guy was the limit and then all of a sudden, he saving yanks him out and puts him to a and then they go on to win the national championship and then Hurts transfers, right, But you just kind of feel like Milroe. We didn't Hurts hang on another year as a backup. Didn't he let Tua go and then he had to come in and save the game? Correct? Yeah, and then he won to Oklahoma. But you just feel like this should have been Milroe's year, right, like to dominate. But man, here's what I always say, and you're doing it right now too, and I know you don't mean to do it, but we always forget these people are nineteen years old, they are twenty years older, three years old, and they got one hundred thousand people around them trying to scream where he cannot think. I mean, it's nuts. It's just crazy. And I have inside people at the game that are I'm telling you, man, there's something about that damn spooky rocky Top. When it came on in the fourth quarter again, I mean, it just changes everything. And if you're on the sidelines and you hear that, you're like, holy. Shit, they're getting ready to put it on. So maybe I haven't paid attention this week like I should. But did you get a sense that Alabama fans were done with Kaylin the board? Now, I heard a little bit of it, was teamed down a little bit. I heard a little bit of. It, but not like I mean, I think everybody just knows heyes, his first year here. You're in the SEC. Man. It ain't a freaking Joe. Let's say this too. College football is a little different that you have twelve teams. People still think, well, I still got a chance because there's twelve. It might sound a little different if it was just you know, we're. Watching, we're watching the game, hunting and I'm not kidding you. We're sitting here going through the schedule. Was Brad letting you watch or was he obnaxious? Oh no, no, it was fine, he was Yeah. We were just we were literally counting victories, like, all right, if Tennessee wins, that gives Alabama two losses. Now we need Georgia to do this, and that gives them to So obviously it's for LSUS who we're trying to calculate. Oh yeah, yeah, we're trying to calculate these things out. Yeah, and so immediately Logan looks at me and goes, Texas A and M this weekend. Yeah, who would have thought? Those are the two unbeatens in the SEC. Yeah for SEC right, and one of them's got to come out this weekend losing. So we'll see how that goes. But that LSU night game, No, it's at Texas A and M. I love that. I've always loved that rivalry. That's oh yeah, even when Texas A and M wasn't in the SEC. Yeah, they used to play each other. I think it was. It might have been the last game of the year. Yeah, LSU, it was. God, it used to be kind It was such a good game. Yeah, so that's going to be that's a game coming up. Great. Wee twelfth Man. By the way, and venues to go to Tennessee is one. Obviously L s U's one, but man, Texas A and M twelfth Man definitely a venue. It's what a great place? Now is that a? I don't em Can you research what time that game is on on Saturday? Texas A and M L s U. Other great weekends or other great games? This weekend you got Notre Dame in Navy. It's at seven oh night game. Man, Now, she's so fast. I was looking it up to I was going to be here, all right, So Notre Dame name. Normally this would not be a big deal. It's at seven thirty, right, Yeah, this is a huge deal. Notre Dame in Navy. Okay, this day in history is what I meant to bring up. Do you know that this day it's sixty years ago since both Army and Navy were in the top twenty five sixty years sixty years ago. We have to let Navy win this, right what they have before, I mean, they've beaten them too not too long. Ago to have them beat them this year. Yeah, that would be great. We got to have Army Navy undefeated facing in the game against each other. Okay, so I really wanted Navy to beat Notre Dame when Notre Dame had your coach is Brian. I can't offer that. I'm not a Brian Kelly fan, so I have to tolerate. But I like the new Navy. I like the new Notre Dame coach. Oh that guy, Yeah, I kind of dig him. It's okay if Navy loses to them. Now, I wont an Army Navy undefeated matchup, undefeated matchup at the end of the day with the newly elected Donald Truy wrong at that? Oh my god? Could you imagine that powerful the. Winner of being the twelfth team to make the playoffs? Wouldn't that wouldn't they be? No, you think that's it's awful. This actually would be a nightmare scenario because that that would be the conference championship, them two against each other, and then they turn around the next weekend they play the Army Navy game. What, Yes, they're in the same conference. Yes, well that's lame. Just skip the conference game. This is the one year that this is gonna happen. One's gonna win, the other one's gonna lose, and then they're gonna play the next week and they're gonna knock each other off. That's weird. But I do hope whoever comes out of that Army Navy game is the twelfth. Oh, that would be awesome. That would be. Instead of State and everybody. Don't everybody think Boissey States? Yeah, yeah, I don't anybody say Liberty. That's because they're scheduled. Yeah, they're sched on yep. All right, Uh Washington, Indiana? Did you say Washington? Yeah, it's I always say it, so I'm not going to change it, So get over it. I just wash your mouth. That was soaping. She's the weise bar. All right, thank you. Emma has converted. Like before the show, she was mad at me, but now she was. Where's her meut button right beside me? Soight? So Washington, yes, and Indiana normally this would not be a game, but Indiana is the real deal. Yeah. Like I thought that was a joke. Like I'm like, Nebraska's going to beat them, and then dude, they took Nebraska to the woodshed. I you know, have you ever gone like later in the next week and realized I don't remember who won that game. I did not know who won Indiana Nebraska. I cannot believe when I saw the score. Oh it's nah. Everyone din't even closed the whole game. I mean, can I got Indiana coach all you can? All right, So they go, but they go to You gotta go across the country now here in Washington for this game. That's a that's a big deal. I don't know. You know how he likes to fly there, eat, beat their ass, and come home. That's what he said. Oh really they don't stay now, Oh you haven't, dude. You've got to watch out Pat mcavee clip. Pat's interviewing him, and he says, oh, yeah, I got an assistant that tells me we're gonna fly out on a Friday, and we're gonna do this and we're gonna no Now, we're gonna get to the hotel as late as possible. We're gonna eat, we're gonna go to sleep, we're gonna wake up, we're gonna kick their ass, and we're coming home. Uh, there's no playing the time around. I mean, he's dude, is just focused. Hey, that's so the kids can come back and study. That's exactly what he said. There's more time for them in the book. Oh so I like it. I mean, do you hear a coach even give a damn the dance to study? He is business. Yeah, that dude is no joke. He will be the next Alabama coach. I'm just telling him. By the way, it's not in your agenda. Oh oh, what do we got? But we should give a few minutes to talk about what in the hell happened to Tony Bennett? And uva jesus, Let I tell you what. We didn't talk about school LSU Texa and we got World Series, Dodgers Mets will be coming up. Who you got Dodgers? Yankee? Excuse me, I'll take the Dodgers. I'll be rooting for the Dodgers me too. Yeah. Logano wins Vegas, Uh yeah, Nascars in Homestead this week. Nobody cares about that, like the boringest race. We'll wait for Kevin to pick that up at Carolina. Kevin and you know he's gonna be right. All right, So we got about three minutes we'll talk about Tony Bennett. I just got a text that said, how great Jacqueline sounded great? Jacqueline did yep. Uh, So let's talk Tony Bennett. Yeah. For those of you don't know, I don't know what's wrong with you. But Tony Bennett stepped down this this week, this as basketball coach at uv A. Yeah, shocking. I mean, I was stunt. I thought it had to be health related. I told you that I couldn't believe what you said would be the cause. And that actually is the cause. I just when I read it just happened to be the article that came up that he had done eight months ago or six months ago, whenever it was, and you could again, I think he said to himself, Okay, I'll try it. He struggled, and it just like, why am I changing everything I believe in? And I love that for him. Okay. So the thing that I thought was the most poignant comment that came from that press conference was I can no longer sit here and coach under these new ways. I've tried it, I can't do it. I hope by me not coaching that I can be from a third party make an influence on making real change for these student athletes. Right, And this is the part that got me, because I cannot do it from this school, correct, But the way he said that made it sound like to me that he was trying to change things at UVA, a little Dabo Sweenish, Like, you know how Dabo does it the way he does it, almost like Tony Bennett wanted to do it his way, and the school was like, no, these kids want agents. Are going to get agents. Yeah, and it's it's not good. It does not end well for the student. And I mean he was very complimentary of UVA. He loved UVA, but. I swear I heard a little tw engine there that like he didn't have control. Yeah, And let me tell you. I listened to a guy on TikTok who used to be an Alabama coach. I don't know if you he comes on your algorithms. He just tells stories. They got crazy, It got the like the cool stories. Dude, he is the best. I know who you're talking about. And he talked about an agent telling one of his players to not go to a workout and run the forty And he's like, do you not think that the NFL doesn't contact the coaches? Yeah, I mean they're gonna know everything about you. Yeah, you not showing up tells them that you're not trying to make it in the NFL. It's worse to not do, and he goes the agents are roo, they're ruined. We knew this was gonna happen. Yeah, I mean they get paid. Hello, I don't I don't know what obviously, I don't know what the answer is. I think the answer is Nick Saban, Tony Bennett. I mean, these are giants in the sport, Jay Wright and pick whatever sport. Yeah, what other sport you want, Dabo Sweeney. I don't care who you put on that committee, but you let them decide how we go forward. It's almost like, do you remember when the VHSL used to tell you you could not. Practice. You couldn't practice but this time of year to this time of year, and you couldn't be with the students again until the next time of year. And you had three sports stars. Yeah, right, because you couldn't You couldn't do anything in football, so you went to basketball, and then you couldn't do anything in basketball or football, so you played baseball. And we had great three sports star athletes. Bo Jackson's yes, right, your son would have been one of them. He would have been one, but it was basketball. All year long. And I mean that was just the way I'm just saying, Yeah, if the rules were different, that dude would have played football and baseball. Yeah. And do you know why? Do you know why they dropped that time of year thing? Because people were cheating and other people were telling correct. So the people that made the rules were tired of having to go after the people. So instead of enforcing the rules, let's just have no rules correct and look at. Where you are. You hit the nail on the heads. That's exactly what the NCAA did. They're tired of going after people that cheated, the SMUs, the u n c s, and so they just said, we'll just let them all get paid. We get we're hearing every day on ESPN from the pundits that say they should all get paid. Not one ever says they're going to school for free. Emma, are you having to pay for tuition when you go to lu? Okay? Would you like to be an athlete and not have to pay that tuition? Us? But we all forget that they were getting tuition, not just but that was per dim and food. Yeah, and I mean so many more. Stupid basketball guy. When they won the national championship said they were starving. Yeah, exactly, Just shut up, dude. I visited Tech and we went in through the tunnel where they they had xboxes everything. They stayed in that facility, right, There wasn't a room that we didn't go into that didn't have food from Florida ceiling, sneakers from Florida ceiling. So now you have Tennessee and what are they doing. They're paying players, right, they have to keep up with it and got a fantastic ad that comes up with it. But guess who's paying the. Price the ticket buyar Oh yeah, so now there's a ten percent booth. It's actually on the ticket for next year, a ten percent booster increase for NIL, and people are willing to pay it because they want the best players to. I don't disagree with you, but I like what Nick Saban said. How is that in NIL? That's not you're not paying for name and likeness, right, you're just paying It's exactly right, he said. I don't have a problem with NIL. If you're a stud and some advertiser wants to put you on a commercial, you should get all the money, every bit of it. But just simply paying everybody just to be here. No, of course, that's what's happening. All right, moving on what's happening. It's time for news. All right. This is a question for you, Trient. Is it coincidence or that Donald Trump works at McDonald's. It's a feel good story. It seems to be getting Oh he killed her? Oh, yes, killed her a day later e Coli breakout in McDonald's lead story, lead story on all the three networks. Yes, is that a coincidence? No? I don't think so either, dude. Those people were so jealous that he did so well. Yes, and they Oh, even my liberal friends when I posted I'm going to McDonald's tomorrow, they had to make little comments. You haven't commented my daughter had senior night. You didn't even say congratulations with my daughter. But if I'm going to McDonald's the next day, you've got to say you mean this? Are they closed? And it's a staged event? Shut up? Like like like Kamala is out there shoveling with a hard hat. Did she really go shovel with a hard hat on? Because that's what she does all the time. Of course, it's staged idiots. That's what's so crazy about it. Is the meltdown that happened. Yes, and like my favorite thing. One of them said, he was wearing cufflings. Okay, he's a billionaire. Yeah, that's what billionaires do. He was himself. You know what he didn't do. He didn't strip down and turn his hat sideways and pull his pants down and try to act like a McDonald's employee, right, because he's not. He's not. That's what Carmello would have done. And by the way, thank god for X and I've got some clips that have at it for segue. He hands the bag to someone and the guy says, thank you for just handing it to ordinary people. Yes, and his response was, you're no ordinary person. You're not an ordinary. Person, dude. That is a personal connection that he makes with people. Absolutely, he is the people's president. There's no doubt. If we don't get cheated, there's no there's no doubt about that. Now do you think NBC, CBS, ABC, do you think any of those channels showed that interaction? Of course not, No, they didn't. I often, I mean, this is a pipe dream of mine, but I often wonder there are there are instances in history where something has happened or something that that changes the course I guess you could say Abraham Lincoln, right, change the course of American history. Yeah, there's is it possible that we could see this through because I don't know. Have you seen the interview with Danica Patrick. I've seen several where she talks about she thinks that this could be the defining moment for America, not for good bad, but for literally fundamentally changing us to be the greatest we've ever been of all time. Okay, it is amazing that you just brought this up. I'm listening to Glenn Beck today, and yeah, I listened Glenn Beck from a distance. I like what he says most of the time. Sometimes it's out there. But today he said something to me that was fascinating. This McDonald's thing he has become. He has turned uh and Gabby Tulse her or Tabby Tulsi Tulsi. Gabrett said yesterday she's now joined the Republican Party. Yes, okay, he said, I've looked back in my life and there's been one person that actually changed politics, one person and that was JFK changed the KKK Party of the Democrats and became the Party of the People for the racism that was going on. Yes, so the black population instantly switched, he said. And now he got some help from Lyndon Johnson, but they got they changed the Democratic Party, he said. Donald Trump has just done that for the Republican Party. It is the party of the people. It is the party of the worker. And I was like, man, it gave me chills. Gives me chills now I thinking about that. It is what he's doing. Yes, I think so too. And I think, man, the fear to me I have the more and more we get, the closer and closer we get, I have less of a fear of it being stolen. Don't get me wrong, that's a possibility. But I'm it's less for me than you and your brother. I am, mem Brad are so scared about it. I'm so fearful. I'm more fearful of stuff that I keep hearing. And here's one of them. Cut one. He is talking about doing every the entire Department of Education. He's talking he means it not. This is not a joke. This is the guy who also wants to place every civil servant, every single one thinks he has a writer of the Streame Court ruling on immunity to be able if need be, if it was the case, to actually eliminate, physically, eliminate, shoot kill someone who is he needs to be. A threat to him. I mean, so, I know this sounds bizarre. It sounds like I said this five years ago. He locked me up. We gotta lock him out. That's enough. I mean, that's okay, that's he walks it back right there and says politically, but that's what he meant. Sure, we all know that's what he meant, and the crowd collapse. It's a smattering of claps. Okay, all right, let me just play devil's advocate. Yeah, when Trump ran in two thousand and six, we had to lock her up. Okay, So I'm not going to say any way, she had wiped her servers clean, she had broken the law. No, No, I know that. But I'm just saying, so, let's just give him the benefit of the doubt. Except you and I both know he's not of his faculties enough to speak without it being said in his ear at some point in time, which makes me think this is a plan. We've obviously seen them purposely go after him politically in the courtroom. We know now this week the Nathan Wade story where he's testified in front of Congress saying that he met with a White House on the Georgia prosecution. Oh oh oh yeah, the yeah, and we know that he's saying that he met with the White House. And by the way, have you heard anything more about joy Do you remember the whole campaign when she was at the DNC, Kamala was the joy president. Everything was going to be joyful. Yeah, now now it's execute and Hitler. Yes, I mean I get where you're going. That's that's a bigger fear than cheats, a bigger fear than cheating. I agree, because I think I agree with you there. I think we're getting closer to damn. We can't cheat, but so much or else it does become obvious at this point. That's that's a good point. Last year they had to beat They had to cheat enough to get forty thousand votes correct, that's literally all they had to get. Yeah, and now. If you make it well, like he says, too big to rig, it's what we got to do, and we got to do it, but we got to keep him safe too. It is scary. Yeah, all right, what are you so? What are your thoughts on down ballot quickly. I don't even know what that is. Your Congress Senate. I mean you have a feeling, will he have a Republican Congress of Republicans? Oh? You mean is he going to go that are red wave enough to win? All I'm getting the feeling is that is going on too. Yeah, I hope so. I mean it seems like the ones that are going to beat the incumbent, it seems like the incumbent is a dim So I'm hoping that, yeah, we win. Yeah, well that would be great, all right? Uh flipping real quick to local politics. Yeah yeah. Bedford County School superintendent Yes, speaks to students about the new cell phone Polemy my daughter was part of that meeting for which you feels uncomfortable. No, she said, my god, don't we think this is right? I don't. I'm trying to literally, parents are outraged about the cell phone thing. Yeah, get take a hike. Not this is what's crazy. I haven't got the feeling that they're outraged because they can't use their cell phones. They're outraged at the superintendent. That's what you need to read about. And it's crazy what they're outraged about. So apparently he has met with students and in these meetings he has said by limiting the cell phone usage, we will cut down on pornography, different different things like that. And they're outraged over this. What does that have to do with my daughter or my son or why? Why is he he made my daughter feel uncomfortable saying that, I'm sorry saying the truth. That's ridiculous. Is that what they're scared about. Dude, what he said is correct. He said limiting the cell phone would cut down on suicides. I mean, I don't understand the outrage. My daughter said that he came with them with facts and he swayed one of her friends like she listened to it, and she actually argued about she listened to it and said, oh, and then my daughter was like, he's bringing us studies. Yeah, he's not just saying he did it. They researched it and did it. And she goes in the end, I mean, we all know that this is what's needed. Sure, they all know. What gets me is they're a bell to bell policy, meaning they can't have their phones from bell to bell. Timberlake, you have to lock your phone up in the mornings. You don't get it back to after school. So my daughter was saying something, the issue is they're trying to keep it out of the hallways. The biggest issue they have as kids in the hallways with it. So they're still trying to figure out. So the bed the Bedford policy, as I understand it is, this is where we're going. We're still trying to figure out how to do it, and we're talking to the people that are on the streets. Of how to do it. So some teachers have already been doing their own policy. Like one of the people that may be working with not Life liveral Happiness with media Squatch for basketball games. He's a teacher there and he hasn't dropped their cell phones in a rubber Maid container as they come in and they pick them up as they go out. And I was like, well, why don't every teacher do that? And she's and my daughter told me no, they're also trying to keep it out of the hallways. So why not just do at the home room there at Timberlake. You have to put it in a it's a lock ubby and you you lock it and then you're you have to come back at the end of the day and get it out. What's what's wrong with that? I think the fear amongst people is there's school shootings and people trying to get to their kid, and that's what they're worried about. Okay, but you can't get to your kid and I know that, Brian. But I'm just saying that's what that's that's you fear You used a pay phone? No, no, I get it, I get it. But the convenience of it is what they're Yeah, it doesn't matter, I know. So here's what I'm trying to Here's what I'd like to say for all of us. When we win, Thank God, just please God. I can't have Kamala another four years. But when we win, who gives a damn what they say? Correct, they don't care what we sayatship. You know what, make a decision that you know is right, Put it out there, tell people this is the way, or go to another damn county exactly, put your kids in a different school. Amen. And we don't we all know our public school systems need to change. Yeah, you can't change them by doing the same thing. Yeah, how about Jacklin Timber with the fact she brought us today geometry is down fifty three percent. I want her to say, are we spending lesson schools? You know we're not? No, of course not. But I didn't want to get her in political All right, Well you got to listen to Kamela one more time. Here's cut too, One Nation under her Groove by Fanka Dellas, One nation under. A groove getting down just for the funk of it? Can I get it on the. She can't be our president? That by the way, that was eighty million, my ass. Sorry, and I'm trying to skip through here. Emma, what have you voted? No? I will, I will do it. I promise like it will happen. You're my goal, all right. On the other end, hour number two.

You scream the game. Black holes sign launch you come. Wash in black hole side? Why don't you come? Whe't you come? You go. Stood around cold and dam steal. The water one side?

While don't she come? While she may like the sun, long you come, you come. Like a sun lount, You come. Like a sun lounch you come. You come. On cool. Long come? Hell? Now your top ten for the week, she's more like a five. All right? Have you worked out with Kevin at the exact time he should call? Let need to be all? Is it one of those things getting yelled at about this? Well, I'm trying to avoid the argument that we had last time. What was what happened last time? You weren't listening like we said, Oh that's right, she had no money. Thank you. I just told him six thirty eight. Okay? Was there an argument? Oh yeah, yeah, they got into it all right. Yeah. Our top ten this week is the best college football games. Top ten college football games of our time. I should say, okay, all right, number ten, the kick six yep. I was surprised when I first read this list that it would be all the way down. I would have thought it had been top five when I first read it. And I think there's more games better than that one, and there are well I'm telling you kick six was good, but I think people it could also have been in this list the Alabama Auburn game where you had the tip pass for a touchdown to win it. Yeah, I mean either one of those could have been. But in my brain the kick six. I was at the river. It was a great game, But you know there were other how about. And again I am professing my things that I love. But Nick Saban on College game Day said to him the Tennessee game was a bigger rivalry than the Auburn game. That's crazy to me. That was wild. He said he didn't have to get kids hyped for the Tennessee game. They were already hyped. When did the cigar thing become a thing? I didn't even know it was such a thing now. I mean, Joe Burrow, I think made it a thing. It a long time ago, but I didn't know it was. No. I know it was an Alabama thing when they win, and I think everybody's getting back at Alabama because they're beating Alabama now. But I need Dave to tell me how the cigar thing started. I mean, I always remember the Alabama women smoking cigars, and that was smoking hot after games. I don't know. I would have thought it would have been an Arkansas thing. Clinton. You got me on that when I came out of nowhere. Number nine, awesome Nebraska kick touchdown over the leg kick. She has no idea. Now you're talking about right, I'm ignoring you. Okay, good. You may not you remember, I do remember this. This was lame, dude. That's how they won a national championship. I know that kick in the ends and they end up a touchdown. So that was number nine, number eight, Notre Dame beating Miami in the US Catholic versus Criminals. That was a massive game. Number seven, Appy State beating Michigan big time. Yep. That was because it had never happened before. Yes, moving up and beating and they were at Michigan, Yes, at the Big House. It was crazy. Number six. Wide right. I would have put that number one the start of it, just because it was like three years in a row, wide right, ride left, and wide right again. But to me, the wide right, to this day, I still think of that term when the game winning kick is about to happen. I still think wide right. That's a good point. I still think that today's State, that's how big that was. That was? That was definitely I would call that number one in my book. All right, number five. I actually forgot about this one and then thought about it later. Was the Ohio State Miami pass interference in the end zone and Miami ended up losing. Ohio State won the National champions Yeah. This is this is when that running back that ended up getting in trouble later in the NFL and didn't didn't he like make some miraculous play like he caught the guy that intercepted it and got the fumble back. Wait a minute, and I think the wrong game. Yeah, I think this is the National Championship game. Larry Coker was the head coach in Miami and it Ohio State won that game. I think the one I'm Ohio State won too. Yeah, the running back was in, uh phenomenal play. But yeah, who was that Maurice Claret him? I don't know where that came from. Glad you hit it, I couldn't. Dave will be texting here any minute. That was This is your top ten? Uh? Did you number four? Number four? Nebraska over Miami? Why do you say this is mine? Well, yes, Nebraska, it's your top ten. I'm saying, if Dave is giving you hell about something, just it's your top ten. Nebraska over Miami. That was the national championship game with Warren Sap. Oh wow, that was the kick at the end that Nebraska ended up winning. I don't remember that one ninety three, I believe. Yeah, number three now, I remember this game like it was yesterday. That was Boise State in Oklahoma. Yeah, where you had the hooking ladder first, Yeah, and then you had the statue of liberty to win it all, which was where did that coach go on to? Did he go to Washington? Yes, Chris Peterson? And what's he doing now? When they scored the touchdown? Yeah? Yeah? And then the guy get engaged? Now, am I wrong? To the guy that got the version engaged, got engaged, the cheerleader were still together. It's nice, all right. Number two Boston College beating Miami on the Doug Flutie, Yeah, hail Mary. I would say they'd be number two in my book too. And number one Texas beating USC and I want I went to sleep in that game. I'm so mad. Oh my gosh, what an amazing game. Yeah, that was a great ending, But I was disappointed because I was such a USC fan. USC at that time was Hollywood. I mean Matt Lioner and Reggie Bush and I can't remember on defense, but man, it was such they were. They wore Hollywood. USC was everything, and man I hated. I didn't. I did not want Mac Brown to win that game, but I lost. All right, that is your top ten. Now on to have at it. I just got three things to say. God, bless our troops, God bless America. Stock God. All right, since it does have ad it and I can do whatever the hell I want, Let's go back to the things that you skipped over me perfect Okay. I was about to say that. Trent didn't get to talk about who his top ten games were. Is that what you mean? It wasn't on my agenda? Did you have it? I got to Genderly and I was working, and I was trying to get everything out of there, and I was I was afraid. I didn't have time to get the Mountain dews for the staff. All right, moving on, so we. Got trucks just trying to look out for us. Man. I just tried to remember the most excitement I've had watching a game now Florida in person a couple of weeks ago, Florida and Tennessee was number one for me. But if I had to say, I remember being at the hotel Marty and the boys, and I. Don't know, I probably was there or now it's funny. I remember the game, and I remember if my kid was there. We were in the hotel when the first time Tennessee beat Alabama two years ago, when they missed the kick that would have won it. My son was at the game, so they ripped the goalpost down. They did it again this time, But that's what I remember. That was my favorite game. Oh yes, Top ten College was great. There's another one that I want to talk about that to see if you can remember this. The rivalry of Virginia and Virginia Tech. Yes, it used to affect me from a year like I would be depressed for a year if Virginia lost to Virginia Tech. And I really do mean that. And there was a time at my mom's house, Am I what the world just happened? That wasn't me, you didn't thinking. So there was a time where Virginia, i'm gonna say, throws it to the back of the end zone and scores the winning touchdown, and I've been listening to Brian the whole time at my mom's house. And I start cheering and I jump around. I jump around the room because we just won the game. And I'm giving everybody five. And as I get to Brian, who I can't wait to rub it in, he goes flag. Of course he didn't, yeah, And I was like, you're kidding. And I turned back around and there's a damn flag and we had to redo the play and we didn't win. Remember that. That was my ups and downs of athletics. I'll tell you how I remember that. Okay, that was the Fireball night. You remember this. I know Fireball and we were That's how I remember that game. Well, that won't hurt now to go back up to this weekend review. Yeah, you never asked me how the symphony went? Well, we did. We were rushed, we were How was the symphony? Emma? God? What I took Marty on a date to a symphony? That sounds so much fun? You really do think that would be fun? No, I'm Sorrycastic. I was surprised that you thought that was Sorry. Okay, so I'm trying to look at you. Don't try to be nice, just be honest. Okay, okay, So normally I would say the same thing, but it was the candlelight thing, and I thought, you know what, it'd be good to go out. We'll go out. And it's a symphony. But they played Queen and I'm telling you, for an hour it was the coolest freaking music. I mean, all the music that you know that Queen has done. And I'm a Queen fan, so I mean, I'm telling you, man, it was cool as could be. Where was that It was in the you know where the Virginian is the hotel? Yeah, okay, it was in the dining area, or I would admit this amnphony of this it may be entertaining. But if it was an opera, I just I would have just I think I may have found another person to be on the show. So the symphony was closed. But opera takes me over the I mean, there's no way you could. I don't care if they're singing freaking Metallica. Yeah, I'm not listening to an opera. I don't. I don't think I could do. I've done an opera. When you know the professor makes you go to one, you know, like when you were in college and then I think I dropped that class. What classes are you? I mean it was probably English and extra credit if you went to the local opera that they had at the hospital. So yeah, I did it to get extra credit. M But all right, back to regular have ata. Those are those are a few other. Things, getting extra credit for going to the. Oh by the way, when you mentioned the games this week, we failed to mention Miami Florida State. How big is it that they are not? Remember it used to be the game of the century every year. Whie right, that's where it came from. I just don't know how Florida State fell that far. It's unbelievable. Yeah, they're not good at all. That is literally how a bowl game can affect an entire and rest next year. Yeah you know what I mean. Yeah, they want to blame the NCAA, but it was more than that. It was there. It was their team quitting on a coach and quitting on the program. Yeah all right, so let's go to dumbasses. All right. When we left flast when we last left, she was going to go on Brettbaer. She being Kamala Kamala. So the next two clips are from that interview. The first one's a little bit long, but it has to be long just so you can hear the word salad and if you can think about what it's going to be like for her to be president with these normal questions cut fifteen. A number experts thought you would say China FBI director had said that, But you said to Ron, if that's the case, what do you say to critics who look at the actions of your administration and say you're not acting like Iran is the number one threat they gave them five hundred million. Brother, Well, I will tell you most recently, whether it was in April or in October, and then several hours on each occasion that Iran posed a threat occasion to Israel. I was there most recently in the situation room in the most recent attack, working with the heads of our military and doing what America must always do to defend and to support Israel in its requirement to defend itself, and to give American support to be able to allow Israel to have the resources to defend itself against attack, including from Iran and Iran's terrorist proxies in the region. And that is and my commitment to that is unyielding and unwavering. Critics just say that you either relaxed or failed to enforce sanctions on Iran, allowing all of this money to flow into Iran. Let's go back to Donald Trump, who pulled out of who pulled a deal that would have actually put Iran in check during Donald trump Umps administration, that rgime that we had an American military base that was attacked, where American soldiers suffered traumatic brain injuries, and Donald Trump dismissed them as headaches. Not to mention how Donald Trump has has treated. And talked about America's military and military service people. I can't, I can't, Okay, she's asked her why you would make Iran the biggest threat? Right? She can't tell you. She never answered it some time. The real question there is, not only did they not enforce sanctions, like we lived up to the sanctions, we're not buying the oil we tell everybody else, not tot But it didn't matter. So Iran actually made more in oil the last four years than they had the previous Sure, okay, so that's more money. We also gave them eight hundred million, I believe was the word. I don't know if it's so sad that you a million or billions, remember blinking trying to explain how they were freezing the funds. Exactly following them up, and it was for if they use it where we don't think they're going to use it. And then they ask him four months later and he goes, I'll have to get back with you then that I don't know what the receipts were. Come on, So that's the question. Obviously she has no answer. This is freaking great. So this is cut sixteen. This is her him asking her if she thinks the American people are stupid. I love X because. Remember the thing I said, where he's handing the where Trump is handing the bags to McDonald's. Okay, the only place I saw any of that was on X sure, because that's where I find my news. I love that people follow up with this, all right, cut sixteen, Misgott. I would never say that about the American people. What else do we know about this population? Eighteenth through twenty four? They are stupid? Sure? So I I watched Brett Baerr. I watched the interview and when she goes, oh god, I would never say that. I would never call the American people stupid and obviously implying that she is above board, right, and there she is right there after that, it's exactly what she called. The young people of America because they're stupid, all right. Yeah, Secretly, behind closed doors, we know that Democrats will do anything to stay in power. But secretly, behind closed doors, you do have serious people that have to be going. Please God, I'm begging you, do not allow her to win. Like I'm telling people in the government that are Democrats, even they're probably going, man, I can't. No, I don't think they think that. No, I really think that as long as the d is in the White House, then they have control. They don't care what she says. I mean Biden, my god, how bad could Biden be? And they would have elected Biden if he hadn't done so poorly in the debate. I think about Joe Manchin, and I think that dude's probably going, man, I can't be a part of this. Yeah. Well, I mean that's why Telsa Gilbert's where she went. I mean, that's why Robert Kennedy is where he is. There's at least some people with some ethics that are leaving. You know who I would like to interview on the show, Jim Webb. I'd swear that I knew you were going to say that. That's exactly where I thought you were going to say. I know, because he swallowed that pill for a while. Yeah, and then I think he realized, God, I can't be here. Am I get on that? Get Jim Webb on Jim Webb. I don't even know who that is. He wrote a book that's one of my favorite books of all time. You should really read it. It was a US marine that went to Vietnam. Really good. He was a US senator. He was Virginia senator before him, useless Kane. So get this, dude. I'm watching news Sunday night because I want to see the coverage of McDonald's. Yeah, okay, he did McDonald's on Sunday Sunday night. I'm watching it. ABC News, which I try not to watch. ABC News gets on there and they say Kamala or they say that Trump has turned dark and dreary and on his on the stage, he is making horrendous comments and then they cut in what is arounded comment is is Horenda's comment was she's a shit vice president and she's been a shit vice president, and the crowd goes crazy, Yeah, okay, So they take that as him turning dark on the stage, and then they say and then the next day he went to McDonald's to promote the he's the only person that is saying that she has not worked at a McDonald's, that he is enforcing something that he's created. A fake story is essentially what they're saying. And then they don't. Show any of the things that we just talked about, right, that people coming to drive through and that the people loved it, and that kind of thing, and the line of people, my god, that was in that town. Don't show any of that then, so they go, what did they ask him? What's the minimum way should minimum wage be raised? Right, they go to her and she says a president should not talk like that. She's talking about the first half, So they obviously edited the clip for the beginning of the news. She's wearing the same thing that she had earlier in the day, so they used the clip before and waited for him to go to McDonald's where she said the thing about minimum wage. I don't care if you work at McDonald's, aware that your minimum wage should go up, Right, So it was just about that. It wasn't about the show. How about asking her what McDonald's did you work at? Which one? Yeah? Was it in Canada? Was it in college? She says, it was in college? So where I can drive you to the one that I worked at? Of course? Yeah, she was at Howard, which is where is Howard DC? Okay, so she should be able to tell you exactly which. One exactly, or have a coworker just come out and say, yeah, I worked with her. We used to work on Tuesday nights something like that. They didn't do that. So anyway, so this is an example of the news. Now the next night, the very next night, on Monday Night, listen to how CBS opens the news on National News at six point thirty cut twenty two. A selection day is just over two weeks away, and the fight for every single last undecided voted in battleground states is intensifying. Vice President Kamala Harris's targeting disaffected Republican voters by hitting the trail with Liz Cheney in the crucial blue wall states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. Cheney was a powerful Republican congresswoman, and today she called Harris a responsible and was she powerful for former President Donald Trump. He was back in North Carolina again pushing false claims about FEMA and immigrants. That's after he spent the weekends slinging a crude insult at Harris, engaging in lewd locker room talk about the late golfing legend Arnold Palmer, and staging a campaign stunt at a Pennsylvania McDonald's. Jesus, that's how they started the news. Good lord, Like you know when you're watching the news, I know what he knows when you start the news. That's what David Muir is so good at. They know that most people don't hang on for the whole half hour. Yeah, so they get in the sound bites that they can at the very beginning of what the news is. Their headlines, their headline grabbers. That is borderline. Lying. It is lying. Let's not call it misinformat. That is lying. Is it's just lying to say that Liz Cheney was a powerful Republican candidate, okay, or a Republican congresswoman. Can you remind me what was her loss in her primary? Seventy She lost by seventy percent in her primary. Why is she even relevant? She's not because they found a Republican woman that still hats him so much that they would bring him up. Her up there. Yes, no, it's dude. It is so sad where we're at right now. So the Arnold Palmer joke, did you hear what he said about that one? Okay? How many? How many of his campaigns have you seen? Handfuls? Right, every one of them? He has some kind of joke. Yes, and it is locker room humor, but it is hilarious and the people laugh out loud, of course. So as Arnold Palmer joke was the other golfers when it was time to shower, wouldn't go in there with him because it's Arnold Palmer. Okay, it was a joke sort of like that, Like correct, the dude is endowed? Yeah, okay, So what does ABC News do? They run with it. They end up bringing Arnold Palmer's daughter on and they got a picture of her and him. Fifteen Is Arnold Palmer alive or dead? He's alive? Is he that we should do that on a dead or alive? I thought he was dead? So they bring her on because I thought he just passed away not too long ago. So the picture, Yeah, he's dead. Okay, thank you, Emma. God we got great staff. He died in twenty sixteen. Good lord, good god. I thought it was just recently. That's even worse eight years ago. So my god. The picture they have Brian is like he's fifty five years old. He looks young and vibrant. His daughter, who's on his lap or next to him in the picture, she looks like she's forty. So now she's obviously older. But they didn't bring her live. They showed this young, vibrant picture and she's on there, just her voice and she goes, I cannot believe a former president of the United States would stoop so low to be locker room humor about my father. Of course, he's a white suburban woman. That's the people. That's the demographic that we have to beat. Did you see the story in I believe it was the Daily Mail? Was that Ben Shapiro's yes, all right, so there is. He's Daily Wire, But Daily Mail is pretty day. Bob Casey who's in Pennsylvania, Democrat, Tammy Baldwin who's a Democrat in Wisconsin, and Sharrod Brown is a Democrat in Ohio, and then John Tester who's a Democrat in Montana. All three are rough for reelection. All three are either tied or trailing going against a Republican. All have done a recent ad where they have aligned themselves with Donald Trump. Now give their ads, Wow, and almost like they're not Dems themselves. Correct, They're running ads in areas that Donald Trump has support, as if when he was in office they supported Donald Trump's agenda. There's so many signs of him winning. That's what I'm saying that you've got that is Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Ohio, in Montana and you're running ads and Donald Trump's campaign had to come out and say, these people have aligned themselves one hundred percent with Joe Biden and his in his policies. Don't I mean that again? I mean you want to talk about lying. You're literally trying to tell voters that you agree with Trump. It's unbelievable. Here's another sign of things that scare me. And I've been around politics long enough to know, especially the dims, they tell you what they're doing. Yes, they just kind of set you up, Yeah, they do. We're two weeks from the election. Guess what I heard this week? Michigan has six hundred thousand more names on their voter rolls than they actually have citizens that can vote yes, and they're not wiping them off the rolls six hundred thousand until twenty twenty seven. A right, So how is that not cheating? Of course it's cheating, But I mean, I don't know. I just again, I hope one day we can get to a point where just the truth comes out one way or another, Like I want to know who really killed JFK. Yeah, the feedback starting again. It's Kevin Guarantee. He's calling in a loose Why are the Ice Street need to get an engineer on that? Girl? I will say the broadcast. You didn't hear it, would he? But what are you talking about? It's fine now, Kevin? You there, yo, yo yo, There we go, peace and quiet. I knew there it is. Yeah, there it is. Oh my gosh, what are you hearing? We hear feedback on their headset. It's a little buzz technical. What did he say? What did you say? I couldn't hear you because of the buzzing. This is the fourth time in a row. I would say, second time, I think you need to fire the call in service? Would he? He's busy. It seems to be fluttering down a little bit. It's fluttering. Hey, it's on a flutter. Kevin. We had on a guest today, so we really didn't get to cover sports. So, uh, before we get to sports, have you de gardened your garden? I just picked eleven tomatoes out of my garden. Wow, it's still producing. Yep. Carn to the beach on the trip. Oh, that's right, Kevin is leaving when tomorrow tomorrow? Who goes to the beach on Thursday? Uh? Somebody wants to get away from crazy people. But your people don't talk back, No, but their relatives do. All right, So you're leaving to go to the outer Banks tomorrow. That's correct. You're all packed and ready to go, and you've got a rat pack coming with you. You've got uh police officer Dylan Slide will be joining Gravely Police officer Gravely, Yeah, Justin Gravely. Uh yeah, Farmer Worthy will be joining. Uh concrete guru Nick. Shields, Dustin Scott Quing. You've got a big y'all. Did y'all get big house? Sleep fourteen? Good lord? Trny, are you going down? Wasn't inviting? Yeah? She was? Trent listened to the podcast Umber thirteen for the year love It when March the first four listen to it. Jeez, we'll do then I'm in. He's got plenty of room apparently. All right, So this isn't the house in Rodancy again where you can hear the water go underneath the damn floorboards. No, we're up in the outer banks, right near a fish head's bar and grill, which is the outer Banks pill right beside of it. What time in the morning do you start fishing off a pier? Uh? We go to the bay right now. The actual sound has more fishing it now than the ocean. So we go to the sand and fish with shrimp, catch h speckled trout, blues, sea mullets, we catch uh, occasionally some skates and actually we catch catfish. Coming to the bay. And you're there four days, ten ten days. Good Lord, I needed that. November the November the third, I got a property. I've been off one hundred thirty five days worthday off of one hundred and thirty five days, I. Got a proposition for you. One of those days, you guys, make a pledge. The only thing you eat is what you catch that night. The only thing for supper is what you had to catch that day. I'll make sure I take a picture of us catching it and me for laying it, and me cooking it up and us eating it. Was small than a. Oh yeah. You had episode good man. You can't even eat it with your shoes on. You got to take the shoes off toes. I can see you wigging your toes like Fred Flintstone before. It's not good that I can always. Hear the start. We will go down bad road of it. Said a word. All right, Hey, this is episode two o two. I think what episode is this, Simma. It's on the email anywhere. I think. I think it's episode two oh two. If I'm not mistaken, Okay, my question is yes two o two. So on episode two o two, the question has been asked, will Kevin make it for Christmas this year at the beach? At the beach and the answer will be. Yes. Boom, he said yes. Whether you have car trouble or not, well, it depends on if you got five hundred dollars in your pocket and put it up, then we'll guarantee it to happen. Because not you just speculate. But I will be there okay, all right, I'm all excited about it. I cannot wait. We're good because the guy that I met Dan, he has his own plane and he'll probably fly me in the manni oh, you'a'll have to come pick me up. So you can come pick me up and all video taking that going on. Y'all don't understand. My brother does meet people and just gets himself into these things, and I can never Like, what do you do? Do you walk around talk? Because I'm an introvert. I'm pretty sure Kevin's an extrovert. Correct, yes, no doubt. I mean what makes you sit around and go, hey, you got a plane? You know? You just have to be understanding that you got one life to live. Why not try to live it to the fullest and meet people? And I try, but I can't just talk to strangers. That was the weakest thing I did in campaigning. I could not. I can't either. I just couldn't. I don't know. Now once I get to know somebody, yeah, I can talk and have a good time, but man, I can't stand going to the parties and ugh, it's so uncomfortable. I'm out of my element. The question you need, the question you need to ask yourself, is how's an introvert end up on a podcast? That's only that's because the Good Lord put me here. He put me here to influence other people that you're not influenced. I don't influence anybody. All right, let's get to the most Let's get to the most important stuff. How was picks from last week? Trent? You got this stuff wrote down? I have. I actually lost last week because I picked Kevin and Kevin was one out of five and you were two out of five. But both of y'all had the same picks in two of those games. But you still lost both of those. But Kevin made up for it because he made the race pick Logano? Yes, what did you pick? Logono? Trent? I did not. I picked Blainey. This isn't about me. Is what he does is he could be wrong ten times. But if he's right once, you're going to get a text. I told y'all idiots who do pick. Okay, there's two things I know. When I'm watching a race, the person I don't want to win is probably gonna win. And if Kevin picked that guy, I'm gonna get a text. And both of those things happen. Not last week. Last week, my thing was when I talked to y'all both, My thing was this, I said to you both on the podcast. You could listen to it in fact check me because I said, this is a pick that Brian's not gonna like. And you kept saying, Trent, what is not to like about these picture doing? And I'm like, cause I'm picking Joel Logano to win in Las Vegas. And You're like, oh, okay, well, well, what is the use of me telling you if you're gonna go pick somebody else? Well?

It's a human condition to be average. It's not to be as good as you can be, you know, it's a human condition to survive. Just get along, be average. It's why when it kid makes an A on the midterm, he misses two weeks of class all right, or doesn't go or try thinking if I get a C on the next test, I still have. A B average. Lots of people think that way. That's normal. So when you get one that comes out for football and he thinks that way, don't think he's got something wrong with him. He's normal. What we do to get him to play hard, to play tough all the time, to give effort to it's special. It's special to get somebody to be the best that they can be, to understand the work ethic and how important it is to earn it. And you reap what you show
