She said that don't befront me as long as I get my money expid. Not expired. I come, I didn't have a rent and out the door up. So I got down the streets, out of my good friend's house.

Hello, everybody, Welcome to my show. Hell yeah? Did you notice the title change? Title change? What? Oh my good? Y'all even read the agenda? What it doesn't say life, liberty, happiness. I don't see what it says or anything at all? Very top, Oh, my show. Welcome to my show. I'm glad to be here. We are live in the David Hollmaker State Farm Studios here in beautiful Bedford, Virginia. I'm your host, Brian Sly, along with Trent Warner and pushing buttons for my show. Emma, Hello, Hello, Emma man. I don't care what happens after that intro. Oh yeah, I'm ready to go. So Emma doesn't know the story, probably and the guests don't know the story. Probably not yet. This was one of our songs in Nashville where you scan and you can request a song. Emma for money, cautious and bucks ask how much you would you like to tell people how much you paid for this song? Listen when you're in that environment, it's like being at Marti Gras. It is. They are very good at drawing money out of you. But it just feels right. Everybody's doing it. I mean, it's like in Vegas. Vegas should go gamble Marti Gras, you take off your shirt for beads. It's just there's currency in Nashville. You pay to have songs be played. Yeah. Now I'm just saying of the blonde that was on the bar singing unprobably deserved what you paid for the the long haired hippie. One hundred dollars paid how much? Listen it sounds I know, it sounds absurd. It was one twenty because they wouldn't. And then he got the name of the song wrong. I could. I mean it was bad ass somewhere. I could hear your son laughing. Yeah. Anyway, we have a action pack show today. And the song not only cost me one hundred and twenty to hear It also cost me a week of work because next week I have to take off to do my community service because this song came on and I went ninety seven miles an hour? Is this a song you were listening? This is what came on the radio, and I gunned it. Ah, and I got a ninety seven mile an hour speeding ticket. So those this is my PSA, don't speed. I thought speeding would be a fine. I didn't know that I would have to go. Well, when you go like ninety million over, I. Know, too far? Jar, it was a little too fast. Jar. Oh man, we got an action pack show that truck will fly. I can't wait. Legacy media headlines. The media is going crazy, and I got questions for you too. Okay. I'm reading articles last night and I'm just getting more and more infuriated with and this is Fox. I mean, I just yeah, I just I don't understand. Just give us the news that you don't have to put a slant to it. So we'll talk about that coming up in the legacy media. Yeah, drama, got some interesting things that I want to ask you about drama too. Oh good, I can't wait. Stuff that I listen. I'm learning stuff every day. It just shocks me. So I like this sports. Yeah, we got some real good things to get to in sports with Obviously, March Madness is upon us. The Final four Baseball started, Uflan, we got to talk to ufl too. What's happening with all the stuff that's going on in the world. And my top ten today? Yeah, top ten March Madness bust. So what I mean by that is, yeah, people we watched in March Madness went wow, yeah, and then they just flopped in the NBA? Yeah, did you did you write any get up? Your Your list was so thorough I thought it was spot on. But there's a couple of people that I've added. Did you remember number eight? I had no idea what we're going to ask you? Who the hell that was was? I don't he was that dude that played for Oakland last year. Guy, he's I. Think he's I feel so emasculator. Like, oh he was great, Like he couldn't the league. Yeah, he did at least make it to the GLE. What we get with him on not Woody, Oh, it's amazing. I mean, let's get moved. Okay, he's moving. We love you would? Oh yeah, I know you're stressed out. It's okay, man, once you move into the new place. What does he move into his new place April ninth? I think so he closed on his place already, I guess. Or is that part that could be part of the stress if you haven't sold your place but you're moving to another one. I know what it's like. I know that's up waiting. I've done it too. It's not good. I got your wars. Now, would you like a third? No? Hey, yeah, Cova maybe in a rental a cover. That's what I said. Oh, I'm sorry, I just heard Cova. I said bed Cova. Okay. Anyway, Yeah, did you just say like I didn't say I? Oh, well, we got T. That's what Kevin says. We got T. Yeah. Oh there is no Carolina. Kevin. Sorry, man, that's so disappointed because Martinsville was last week and we got throw back weekend at Darlington. I wanted this weekend. Dag gone it. When is that is that a Saturday night race? Remember NASCAR used to do a Saturday night every now and then and it was awesome. What have they just gotten rid of that? Oh? It is a Saturday five thirty. Yes, And Sunday at three o'clock. What I'm on Exfinity? Oh my god, yes, Sunday three o'clock. Oh, sorry, it's the women's race. I'm just kidding. Oh man, do I have a sports stat for you. I might have showed you last night because I sent it to everybody. I could not believe it. Oh, I bet Emma is going to argue with me. But I have facts. Okay, I can't wait to tell you that. Right, put a note into sports. Women in sports okay, yeah. Real women, Yeah, they're real women. Okay, all right, back was in forwards? Okay, really didn't do much this weekend. Yeah, we didn't have anything planned in for once. That was awesome because we have been on the go for god knows how long. Yeah, then you got to have some staycase. I mean, you just stay at the house. It's nice. We charge you about it, and I'll work on my hot tap. Not that anything was wrong with it, but yeah, little maintenance, yeap, little maintenance on that. I you know, worked on the guns. Oh. I did go shooting with my nephew. Okay, and let me just say I learned a lot. I feel pretty comfortable with a pistol now. Well, I'm glad you're comfortable with one. Trust me much further than I thought. I was hitting targets at forty eight feet with a pistols. Not bad, huh. I don't think I'd mess with me right now. I wouldn't mess with you before. Anyway, we did. We did have fun shooting. It was I learned a lot. He's marine, so he kind of knew his yeah stuff, I was. I was very impressed with him. I tell you, he's really fun to watch about shooting. Is the guy they called the sheriff of Bagdad. Oh God, that guy just just for hours, I get. I can go down that trail and he talks about shooting, and he can look at the pattern of your target and tell you what you're doing wrong with your pistol. Unbelievable. Yeah. Yeah, So anyway, and I didn't realize this, he actually said this to me. He goes, listen, you don't have to shoot. You should every day, you should be aiming. Yeah, And I'm like, huh, well, what do we used to tell Logan and Perry swing the baseball bat in the mirror? Yeah? No, and listen. Normally I wouldn't do it. But when you don't go there. God, I can imagine you practice and aiming and Ashley walk in. That would be I hope she takes a video of it. Memoir. Anyway, if you do that, I'm not gonna says that sound man. Man, Ma, my wife knows what that is, and I guarantee she's probably laughing. Man, man, Mom, I don't know what you'd said. What movie was it from? Uh? Just a legitimate movie, yes, yeah, professor nutty, professor maybe Okay. The old lady when they were talking about news anchor or something, she said, oh he me mimimir. Ma, mo, oh my god, what's wrong with you? God? All right, anyway, that's probably what when she sees me shooting. Oh my god, Chaps, just Chap the old love must it is Falster, that's right. Uh. Anyway, I'm telling you though it's normally I wouldn't do this until watching Sean Ryan Man. He gets you thinking, what is the purpose of owning a gun if you don't know how to use it and be good with it? And it's just like I'm like, yeah, why why do I own a pistol? If something happens and I fumbling it around? That's useless? Yeah, I need to know how to handle it. So I've been taken. It's serious good ye all right? And my weekend yeah really kind of the same thing, just little stuff around the house. And then friends of ours Brian wanted to take his boat down to the earth chetski see do whatever you call it, down to the lake, so I wrote down with him, went to Moosey's, enjoyed the day and just grilled in the afternoon. And I did one of those things where you know how you're a parent, right. I was supposed to come out and see you, and you dumped me for well o jet ski. Well, I mean he does let us use that stuff. So I just want to make sure people understood that, you know, because you always say I invite you over and you never come coming. More than ten minutes notice. And I can tell you why I can't, But anyway, I don't think that was the case. If I may continue on, you may. Marty wanted to go. Marty wanted to go to northern Virginia because she's from North Carolina. She hadn't really she loves Virginia, so she wanted to go experience the the uh cherry trees up in DC, like the Alexandria the type thing. So she took the train. I took her to Kemper Street and she spent a couple of days. So I stayed home and watched the kids so she could go up there and enjoy it. She did the Amtrak thing. Have you done that? Have you done that? Amtrak? I have not, And you know they I think they've pretty much determined that they're going to bring the stop here, which I think is awesome. Oh they are, they have announced that. Yeah, I worked on that when I was on council people. You know, it is every time I take some of the train, it comes from a direction each time that I didn't expect you to go. It's like I'm misriented or something. What I think is north and south. It comes this way in the mornings, in this way in the afternoon. Yeah, well whatever that is. Yeah, north and south or east and west. But she enjoyed the cherry trees and got to do Alexandria and I stayed back with the kids and got them fed and made sure the house didn't burn down. So kind of just stayed at the stayed at the house. All right, Yeah, that's pretty much similar here. But Emma, did you do anything this weekend? That was cool? All right? Moving on to this day next, I'm just kidding this. Did you do anything? I worked Friday night, Saturday morning, Saturday night, and all day Sunday. So well, yeah, you saw. Me, that's true. I did. I got coffee well Sunday morning before church. Oh yeah. Man, My daughter she is just you never know what she's gonna say. We sit down to church and it's comnion and she says, ooh snacks. She's not wrong, she take two. I was a little shocked when the preacher said we do have a vegan option in the back. When did that start? It's a little cracker. I mean, what is how did our parents parents do it? How did we? Yes, how did we get this far? They drank blood back in the day. From a goat. People have allergies. Man. Oh anyway, on this day, yeah, Jeanette Rankin was the first. I see this stuff, Trent, and I'm gonna be honest with you. I get angry because in today's society, everything is the first, the first, this. Greatest, greatest. Now, yes, and then I read this day and it's why we do this day in history, because we shock ourselves. Yeah, stuff, Jeanette Rankin is the first female elected to US Congress. Okay, I've never heard her name, have you? In fact, when I read ranking there, I thought you're talking about that guy with the bandana, isn't it? Yes? I actually thought. But then when I saw what state do you think. She was from? Of all states that would be the first female? Massachusetts, no North Dakota, no Colorado. But you're not far off in neither of you. Now, South newbrask Missouri, Minnesota. Montana, Okay, okidding, but I mean you wouldn't associate that with women's rights, would you. And she couldn't vote from Montana and still could have a baby, so she still came to DC to vote. Good point, excellent point. So what year do you think that would be? And I hate to be a sexist? Do you have that in what's happening about? Let's talk about it? Okay? Yeah, I mean, damn, if you're going to if you're going to run and you want to be equal or whatever, then get your ass to DC and vote like everybody else. And most people who hear that think you are a sexist. But what you don't understand most people is that that is part of politics is you have to be in the seat and you have to vote. The reason for it is there's a lot of politics that goes on. Ooh ooh, such and such is going out of town. We vote, right, yeah, well, I mean that's why they're not allowing it. And by the way, who's to say your server didn't get hacked? All right, your vote didn't get stolen. You got to be there in person. Correct, If you got a baby, don't run. Okay, yeah, what year do you think she got elected? M I'm gonna say nineteen. Sixty eight, No, Emma, nineteen ninety how about nineteen wow, that's right after they got the right to vote. That's what I don't understand when you hear people say women are still fighting for the what remember we always joke about when they say, hank for rights? Yeah, what rights do you not have? My favorite is women's suffrage? Right yeah, yeah. I'm sorry, No, I just it was funny I suffering from nineteen seventeen. That's how long that was the I'm going to stay at home and cook. Ma'am she made. Am I you're setting women's back. Yeah, yeah, sorry, get this that. You know what my history is also also happened to be a woman. Okay, nineteen thirty one, a woman was on an all male baseball team, Get out of Here nineteen thirty one. She was a picture, but she wasn't a dee. I hire no, because she proved herself in an exhibition game. Do you know who she struck out? Babe Ruth Joke and Lou Garrick in the same inning. That's unbelievable. Yeah, good lord? Ye? All right, moving on to the legacy media headlines, and I outside of this, I want to talk about Fox ABC News mayor Eric Adams case was dismissed with prejudiced despite Trump's administration request to allow later prosecution. Now, you and I kind of followed this. Wasn't it the Democrats that said that the Justice Department shouldn't ask for these charges to be dismissed? Wasn't it a quick pro quo? Yeah? And it was. So how could the headline be the Trump administration is pissed. That doesn't make sense to me. You read the article, it says because the judge dismissed it with prejudiced, the Justice Department wanted the ability to try him later if he didn't go along with the immigration stuff. It was like, stop making up news. Yeah, that's not a thing. They are the ones that dismissed the charges. The judge had to go along with it, and you didn't want that. Now that they did, you're making up this. It's so sad. ABC News. What has happened to you? Or why are we just now finding out how crooked you are? CBS News. Trump to announce new tariffs today on what he calls Liberation Day, amid fears of high prices. You gotta throw that in there. Have you noticed a lot of high prices? Well, I mean it just started to day. Well not all tariffs just started today, Yeah, but I haven't. It's been interesting because I don't watch our news. I watch British news, Sky News. Yes, and they're also liberal by the way, oh yes, but it's funny how they come. They seem to talk more about stats of things, which is what I like. Later on, we're gonna break down a little bit of what tariffs because I think it's important because I the sad part about it, Trent is I don't think people understand what it means. And I mean that they don't understand what a tariff. Is so they mentioned that the trade deficit for the first time has been a plus for US in twenty years because everybody's running their goods here ahead of the price hike. Exactly that they're smart to know. I got to get amend before or the price of my good is going to go up. Or watch that they keep buying your good and don't buy foreign goods and you're doing well in the United States again, isn't that something? Next thing NBC News, Trump's Liberation Day unfolds and the new reciprocal tariffs sparking fear and uncertainty. Now that word reciprocal, what would that mean? That's the most important word in that. Headline that nobody pays attention to. Exactly, we're just doing the unto others as we get done. Amen, it's biblical. Right, Hey, that's my drama. Okay when we get there. I can't wait. Speaking of drama, I fall down over. There, h Emma, I need to do to you. But I did the Woody that time. Do you remember he was reading his phone and not paying attention and I said cut too, and that dude about from out of that chair trying to find cut two anyway. Drama all right, Trent, you are old enough to know. This stuff, but I'm not young enough to be able to remember. Now, I think I think you would help educate me on this. So I was trying to find a show that my wife and I could watch together. Right, Well, that's impossible, all But then I found this show and it's called Running Point. Huh right, it's got Kate Hudson. Do you know who Kate Hutson is? Yeah, Okay, it's got her and some other celebrities in it. So I thought, let's try it, all right. So it literally is a story about an NBA team called the La Waves Women. No, okay, And the story starts with my family owned the La Waves, right, and they go through this whole process. Well, as they're going through it, I looked at Ashley and I'm like, wait a minute, I think this story is about the Lakers. And then the more I kept watching it, I'm like, wait a minute, this has got to be the about the Lakers. Huh, Like, Trent, when I tell you, all right, So, I'm just gonna give you a few things. The lady who's Kate Hudson is the daughter of the owner who has now passed away. Jenny Buss it's gotta be Yeah. They make fun of her for posing nude and playboy huh. That happened. Okay, okay, she took over for her dad. That happened. Her brothers tried to get her a vote of no confidence and kicked out. That happened. They go down and here's where it is, like, I can't be the Lakers. She goes down to address the team when she becomes the owner, right, the general not the general manager, but whatever it's called. Yeah, she goes down to address the team and the coach walks over and says something to the effect of, listen, you gotta take it easy. They just came off a weekend of what's it called when you meditating? Okay, well, who does that sound like? Trent gotta be the Lakers? Yeah? Who was the coach? Oh? Phil Jackson? Correct? Yeah, okay, And so he's all about, well, we don't talk about bad to her players, you know, it's all about meditating and blah blah blah. Right, this is the conversation they're having, is it Phil Jackson? No, it's a black head coach of course. And I'm like, come on, but that's Phil Jackson. Right, Okay, the point guard was a jerk point guard that kept getting in trouble blah blah blah. So I'm assuming that had to have been magic maybe, like I can see them mixing in the years. Just why I think you should watch it and go all right, yeah, that that is the Lakers, because I I'm thinking they're going to cancel the show because the Lakers are going to sue them because they do not It does not come. Off so the Lakers. It was called not Showtime, winning Time. They couldn't say show Time on HBO, but Winning Time was about the Lakers, okay, and they just had that series. It was. It was well received critically, but I don't think a lot of people watched it. Well, this is kind of hard to watch a basketball thing because it's kind of fake, faky. Well this is good because it's a it's sort of a comedy. Yeah, but they do not show the like and of course again it's called the La Wave, but drugs, you know, stuff like that. The father had like seven kids, which Jerry bust did some they found out after he died, you know, you know what I'm saying. So it's like, I don't know, it's pretty good. We've watched it. We've probably there's ten episodes in this season, and we've probably watched four. They're only thirty minute episodes. Oh that's my kind of thing, right there. Yeah, try it out, you might like it all right, six it's Trent. It has been renewed. I just was looking it up. Here says Running Point has renewed for a second season. Okay, I can't believe that if I made the connection and I wasn't old enough to remember the Lakers when they first, you know, were our house. But I guess I do remember Genie Buss. I didn't know she posed for Playboy. I mean, I on took was ten seconds. Here is Running Point based on a true story? Yes? Netflix is inspired by the career of Jenny Buss. Okay, yeah. Wow. It does not show her family in a good light. Yeah, or her huh. I'll have to check it out. Do they show any nudity? Not yet, but when you google her and Playboy there is. Okay, I have to check it out. I got to make sure I understand the history of the show. That's right. You have to do your work. I do some research. Yeah, sixth sense, Trent. Yeah, I'm trying to get through Drive to Survive. I gave you plenty of time and you're no, all right, Emma, and chances to answer. So he's telling me that he gave me time to watch it, so therefore it doesn't count if I tell If he tells me what. Happened, you cannot tell him. I just assumed he would have already watched it because he tends to shotgun him and we had talked about this weeks ago. All right, Well, let me ask you this. I do have a question. And maybe you didn't pick up on this, but I have what episode are you on? I'm on I'm on the episode now where they have chosen Liam Lawson, Okay, which I agree with you. Yeah, that was a that was we didn't got nobody else. Yeah, and look how that worked out this year. It's horrible. So I mean, Formula one is already actually in Lawson to put Sonoda in. Yeah, but they're also a japan this week, so of. Course Honda paid a lot of money Christian Horner. Is there a lot of money for him to be in that seat this weekend? Yeah? Which is smart if you read bull and I didn't, watching that did make me understand what was going on with Checho, Like apparently Red Bulls different than any other team, like it's on the cutting edge, or like their cars are set up so freakd freaking you're either going to die or drive it and win, right, And then you wonder, like what is Checko doing? And then you oh, maybe the car, maybe Max is that freaking good. Yeah, but. And he just said you got to be a special person too, And I can now see what he's saying. I mean, you just can't get in that ride and be good. That'd be great. We'll see. Oh, that was the question I was going to ask you. Did you notice that numerous times they talk about greats and they they do not mention Lewiston. Numerous times they said, you know, the greats of the sport Max artin Center. Was that his name in Schumacher, But they didn't say Louis And I'm like that dude's got eight titles. I did not. I noticed it at least three times they bypassed him when they were talking about the greats of the sport. Huh. And I'm just wondering what that comes from. And I asked a question, was there when he was winning those championships was f one considered like baseball had its dead period where the ball? You know? Would you say? I don't know. I mean, why wouldn't they put him in the great category for Lord takes? Who else has got eight championships? I mean maybe because he's still racing? But they mentioned Max. Yeah, huh, I don't know. I did not notice that, all right. Logan actually told me I should look up stories of Lewis's father. I didn't realize. I mean he had basically worked three jobs and did all of this stuff to help Louis. I didn't know all of that. So anyway, nineteen twenty three is still phenomenal. I don't know who's missing out on this stuff, but it's really good. Although the way they ended the season, God, it's like, I don't get it. It's now in nineteen twenty four, no, still in winter, so multiple seasons is still the same year. It seems like a bad idea seems. To be still working. Which shows do you like? Not around still? I did start one in my drama. Chosen, Oh I can't wait. Okay, you got through one episode and gave up on it. No, no, no, no no, I am trying okay watch it. Obviously I don't know much about the Bible. Sure, so I've heard stories like I bet you if I surveyed a thousand people about why did he turn water into wine? Nobody would be able to answer that question. And little did I know, it was for a party. Yeah, okay, they ran out of wine and he went to the water and he turned it to wine. I was like, that's what he did. I mean, I thought it had to be some I would have thought it was a little more symbolic than just we ran out of beer, so we made water into beer. But I just I don't know. I'm trying to give it. I'm down. I've got I think an episode or two left in the first season. I am impressed with learning about the Bible. I think what it'll help you with And I really do mean this is now when you at least pick up a Bible, it doesn't you now, Like I'm just listen. I grew up in church where I was required. My mom drugged me when I was a kid. She drugged you, yeah, drug took you to church. Yeah, that's she drugged me to church. Yeah, so literally Wednesday she dragged you there. Drug. So I'm just saying, even in my late forties, until I watched that show, I knew who Matthew was, I knew who John was, and I knew who these people were, but they were people in the Bible. When I watched that, it's humanized them to me to now understand, Oh my god, could you imagine what it was like to be walking with Jesus. This is what's important, the struggle. You've got to understand, the struggle that he was going through. Jesus is God. He knows he's dying, and he knows it has to go through it. Tell me the whole movie. I ain't got Oh my Lord again, don't sick sense it. We kind of know what's still watching. No, I'm still watching. But I'm saying, you'll. He didn't know that Jesus died. I eventually had to. So what it'll do is you see, have you met Matthew remembers in the very beginning? Okay, but he's a tax collect it's like a little scribe. Yeah, all right, Well, in the Bible you read that he's a tax collector, but that means nothing to you. Yeah, and then you watch the show and you go, oh crap, that's what I'm saying. I do appreciate that what I don't like, and this is what I hope. So it's four seasons of it. I'm hoping that since so many people watch the first season, tell me that the other seasons are better productions, because frankly, when I'm watching it, I told my mom, I said, to me, it seems like an outdoor play. It's not movie, you know what I mean. It's not. And the dialogue is somewhat I guess because they're trying to be respectful of dialogue of the Bible or whatever. It's not been very entertaining to me. Well, I don't know that it's going to be entertaining. Yeah, it's more history lesson. I've enjoyed it, more of a history lesson. It humanized the disciples for me. Yeah, that's what. Yeah, that's what it did for me. And so now when I read Matthew, I kind of understand, Oh, Matthew's writing this in the Bible. Yeah, I now see on the show who he really was. It starts to make sense. And that's before it's just I'm reading a book of Matthew, Like, what does that mean? That's what it did for me more than anything. I mean, I'm not gonna quit watching it. I want to keep doing it. But the there are some stuff in it that the more it gets you just you go wow, that's impressive. Yeah, some of the character development, I really like that. I was gonna say the name wrong. I'm pretty sure Nicodemus. Nicodemus was the architect, the guy. That well, I'm talking this guy was a Musslim or a Jewish guy that was the preacher the. Oh no, no, no, I know, I'm sorry. Yeah, I got it wrong myself. So he's the guy that went around and yes, and he seems to have his irrational head about himself. Correct, But what's the struggle there? Is what really was going on with priests back in those days? Oh I'm sure, yeah, I mean that it was all about politicians basically, is what the priests were. Yeah, and so yeah, he was in that struggle of I think he is the Messiah. Yeah, oh, I can't think that right, right, It's yeah, it's that's so it's a lot of little stories like that. Did you go wow? Yeah, I'm enjoying us. It's we're kind of between basketball and football season, so it's probably a good time to pick up something. It's decent. Yeah, it's uh. I guess in season two that you start to pick up on the the miracles. Yeah, that's my that's been my favorite part so. Far because right now you just had the wine. Right now, he took the fish in the boat. Okay, but he saved Mary Magdalene, which at first he was calling her Mary. I thought it was his mom. Well but no, what's important is that those are miracles, but they're they're happening with a few people. Right right in the second season, you start to go, oh man, yeah, thousands of people are seeing this and they're the same people that crucify him. That's what it's like. What Yeah, that's why when you do tell me the story. No, no, And what I'm trying to say is when people say to you it's not it can't be real. I mean there's no real person. Yeah, you're like, dude, all of this stuff happened in front of real people, and they still killed him, right Like, it wouldn't matter if there he's standing right here. Yeah, you're still gonna doubt. So that's what's faith. Anyway, It's yeah, I'm glad you're watching it. Yeah, I'm happy you're watching it. I could all right. Yep. Drama was brought to you by.

I think it was you or your brother mentioned, or maybe it was Kevin. Where are all the people? Ka? Yeah, I can't remember if it's bad. I can't remember if it's him or me, But we started that conversation that, yeah. What has happened? It was probably half to. Two thirds full right, Yeah, it was not good. Yeah, very sporadic. I can't compare it to F one, yeah, because F one is literally in that country, so you can understand it's coming once a year in that country. You know how millions of one you know, people want to go see it or whatever. Because I saw it in the Netflix thing. I noticed they all came out to speak. It was like one of them Sean Leclair or something. They came out and dude, the crowd went forever. Yeah, And I was like, dude, that's just at a pre event. Yeah, and NASCAR can't even fill up half of what we used to fill up. Well. I think it was Kevin that started it because my response, because I was thinking the same thing. I think I actually told my friend I was watching race with. I was like, man, there's nobody here, and then that's what it was. Kevin then texted and I was like, man, it seems like NASCAR cares more about Miami in Vegas and Texas than they do Martinsville. And they've lost us. They have because if you notice Trent back in the day, they did run advertisements Martinsville race. In two weeks, yeah, we haven't seen an ad Yep, there's no Facebook it's popping up to buy tickets to Martinsville. It's not even the same weekend it used to be. It used to be every weekend you could count the azaleas. Right now, the azaleas grow and bloom and it's no one's there to see it. They used to time it so that it would they would bloom when because that's what it used to be. One of the beautiful things of the race. And you can count on it being mid April, about the same time the masters, both of them are going on the same weekend. Yeah, but they moved it forward. It's colder, uh wind deer yep. So it's just they just stuck it in there. Ye. Yeah. I don't know that I paid attention to what the crowd was like in Miami, but yeah, it's I don't know, Martins's gonna do something different or that's going to be on the chopping block like Richmond. Yep. And before you know it, Virginia's got nothing anymore. Yeah. When we used to have three races, right when you count Bristol. Yeah, and why wouldn't they do what they've done at the other races with different tires I don't know, the one groove, yeah, because that's that's a race that you could add some strategy in if you had a different tire wear. Yeah, So quickly we'll touch on the NASCAR I I don't want to call it controversy, but it is the Infinity race. Yeah, Like Denny Hamlin had said something and then Junior, I mean just there's no, it's not racing. They're just running over each other now. So and those that didn't watch the last lap, which Grayson was at the race. Our nephew was at the race, and he said, man, you should see the trouble with that last lap, and that I mean the guy literally just ran him over, yeah, and knocked them both out with five other cars and whoever was six ended up winning. The whole thing, which had no business winning that race. And it's like back in the day, Earn Hart, you know the Bowdrons whatever. They would have nudged, under, moved, pushed, but they wouldn't have just hit you and knocked you completely out of the way. Yeah, and that happened numerous times. Sort of Dale Junior Dale would do it every now and then, but for the most not like this. That was just absurd. He was a good six feet back and just gunned it. Even when he wrecked Terry Labonni the famous one. Yeah, he didn't run over him. Yeah, he I think he honestly wanted to move him, yeah, but not wreck him. And he accidentally wrecked him, and then that's you know, but. He also I think, didn't he win the race? So it's a bump and run, right, Yeah, this guy and I had no chance of bumping because he hit him so hard he wrecked him both. Yeah, so that's no talent even there was no talent even in wrecking. No, and it was horrible because that guy dominated pretty much the infinities and he's a deal. Junior driver, right, yes, okay, so that guy that did that after the race was unapologetic about it, yeah, saying, you know what, if the guy's going to give me the finger that much, then. So be it. You know, then fight him after the race, yes, you know, yes, throw the finger out of me, punch you in the face when it's over with, not ruin five of the cars, and you know, I got theories on why this happens, which you probably already do, which is a they don't work on cars. Oh that's one first and foremost. Yes, they don't work on the cars themselves. If they did, they would try to take care of their equipment so they didn't have to work on that because they got the next race to go to, and b there's no senior drivers out there anymore. NASCAR doesn't have the veterans racing the Infinity race. If you had done that to a Denny Hamlin or an Exfinity race. He would kill you. It'd talk to you. But yeah, but I'm saying, but that's what the talking to is like. They need a father figure to say, hey, you don't do that on a track. If you'd have done that, what if you'd have done that to Rusty Wallace or any of those Guys's the announcer guy, the Kevin Harvick, Yeah, Kevin Harvick would have put you into the trailer, that's right. Jimmy Spencer, Yeah, I mean that's Jimmy's brothers would have whooped your ass before you he got there. So that's at least when those guys raced on Saturday, and I think that hurts NASCAR's a weekend draw. You don't know the names of the people that race in Inxfinity. At least have five or six of them in there. Yes, they could make it work. Watch what's crazy about that is that's no different than when we grew up. We didn't know who those names were. Either no, but we were going to watch. You have to go on who was going down to race in whatever? Yeah, we were in Dale, Jared or whomever raced that weekend. Yeah, that was the draw. And then you would say, oh, wow, who's that Bobby Labonnie, that's Terry's brother. If I recall correctly, it was a truck race. If I recall at Martinsville and I'm in the journal, you know they got the trough pier and the guy says, you won't believe that they just parked Kevin Harvick the truck. I was at that race, but I was in the journal when it happened, and it was for something that he said over the radio when he just crashed one of the J. D. Gibbs cars or trucks, and he said, see if Grandpa can take care of that. I mean, that's a pretty ballsy thing to say. And they parked him for that race. But at that time, he was the young buck, you know what I mean, And so he was the young guy that Yeah. Anyway, it was it's just Exfinity. It's like they they don't let him practice. Nope. I mean there were times where people would go to the practice to watch the guys how they qualify. We cared what qualififying was, Yes, all of that stuff. We dropped the weekend right now, it's a TV event. At three o'clock and that's where they get their money. That's right, yep. All right, that's on our soap bucks or NASCAR soap Bucks. Yep. And maybe later on in the second hour we'll talk about Darlington. Yeah, what do you want to knock that out? Now? We can talk about it later, all right. Throw Back Weekend though, love the Throwback Weekend. Yes, Denny Hamlin wins. Yeah. The race by the way, like you said, it's kind of boring race. Cayah wait till Taylor Panel sends his thing out on Wednesdays, right, Yeah. But he's had some issues with TikTok again. Yeah. I don't know what's going on there. So anyway, moving on, the NCAA never disappoints. There's always a storyline for me and I love it. So I learned something that I did not know and I'm just gonna be straightforward with you. I'm not a big Rick Barnes fan. He came from Texas. He's done a phenomenal job at Tennessee and jokingly, not jokingly. The guy said it when we went to dinner in Nashville. The waiter, you know, y'all had Tennessee stuff on, and he was a big Tennessee fan and he's like, Rick Barnes will get fired because he never wins the big, big game. And I just kind of laughed. But I've never I mean, I can't say I don't like him, but I can't say I like him. However, I have changed one hundred thousand percent into becoming a Rick Barnes fan. Huh after the game? I guess it was after the game there was I don't know if you saw the the interview with Kelvin Sampson. I did not. I didn't know this about Rick, like I just are you see was what you see on TV. So you get a perception maybe that that's not real. Cut to play cut too. Sometimes Rick wll call me at night and he'll say he won't even say hello. He'll say, hey, do you still run your three twos? One? I'll say, said, I want calleymar talks about that all right? He just hangs up. Who does that? Rick Barnes go make Two days later, Hey, Kevin's cloak? I love your brother. It's Rae Barnes. I mean, he's just one. He's one of the time. I wish we had more like him. It's just a it's a Joel and Jewels. He's one of the great ones. He's Before the game, they had interviewed him and he was talking highly of Rick Barnes and they were talking about them playing each other and he said, I'll just sum it up like this, if he beats me, I want him to win the title. He's that good of a person. And again, I don't you only see what you see on TV, and not that he's a jerk, but it's just like it's Rick Barnes, right, And I didn't know who that's who he was. Yeah, Like I didn't know he was that kind of guy. I mean for him to go out of his way for Sarah, who this is my personal experience for him, you know, to go out of his way and he apparently just loves Sarah to death that he would do a little skit for her. Sarah is my future, yeah, potentially daughter in law that's at Tennessee, and he did that skit of her and my son Perry, you know, just making both I thought that was for I got to go out of his way for little clip like that is really nice. Yeah, I mean, how often do we watch read sports such and such gets fired, such and such moves such and such do is that we forget that they're people? Yeah? You know what I'm saying. They're real people. Oh yeah, real families, real relationships like with Sarah and a mentor you know, probably relationship type thing, getting to know people. Obviously he's got the respect of Kelvin Sampson. And it's just you see stuff like that and you go, gosh, man, you forget about this sport. I sent you a text yesterday and you still got to explain to me. I don't get the move from Buzz Williams. I don't understand it at all. Well, first off, when you send it to me, I thought it was an April Fool's joke and I didn't want to respond. I was a gunshy. Well that's why I kept sending stuff. I got so many people. I really do want your opinion here. I don't get it to me. It's a move up in my opinion really potentially Okay, But the first thing that they need to do is put the Maryland back in the ACC. I don't disagree, but I don't. Everybody hates the guy who was it Maryland that went to Villanova yea, and me personally, I don't understand what he said wrong. Trent, Yeah, I don't know. I don't know what he did well. They called him a jerk because they win the first round or round, whatever round it was. They asked him in a press conference about would he be going to Villanova and he didn't. He said, look, my agent handles that stuff. I don't I've not talked to Milanova's what he said. He said, what I can tell you is that we lack the money, we lack the ability to make big moves at Maryland. At Maryland, okay. And I looked and he said, I'm saying it because we've got to change or else the program can't make it. Yeah, we'll bond all of them. This guy's a jerk. If you're gonna go, just go, Why are you going to talk bad about the university? And I'm like, hold on, why can't he be right? What if the university isn't spending He literally said, we wanted to stay at an extra day after a Christmas tournament, And they said we don't have it in the budget, and he's I know what he's thinking. These other schools are spending millions on players and we can't stay an extra night in New York. And by the way, I know those guys are on TV and they have to say something in order to be controversy or whatever. But for you to be upset at an answer, any answer correct and to have an opinion, you're a journalist perceived journalist. If you ask a guy a question, don't you want the honest answer, whether you like the answer or not. I know they're on shows that they have to give opinions, but I don't understand that at all. Why they get upset about a guy giving her an opinion, especially when it's an honest one. Yeah, and then for them to justify him moving because Villanova does have the nil and the general manager and all this stuff set up. Yeah, that's what he was trying to get Maryland to do. Yeah, but you called him a jerk for saying it. It is interesting to me that buzz would leave a program that supposedly has all the money in the world. That was my point to then go to Maryland. But you know what, he's probably made enough money in his life. Maybe just lifestyle wants to live somewhere or recruit in the DC area. Maybe he just fits it better than Bega. Can you look this up, Emma? Did Buzz go to Texas A and M? I thought the whole reason he left Virginia Tech was to go home to Texas A and M Oh? No, I didn't. I don't't think so. And if that's the case, I can't understand why you would leave. We know, I mean like where he graduated from? Yes, Oh, okay, just typing Wikipedia. Marquette and New Orleans. Yeah he arrives. No, no, no, no where he went to school? No? Yeah, just type in Buzz Williams and it'll tell you where he went to school. Oh, I thought you meant where he could. No. I'm curious because if that's his all, my monitor, I just there's no way you leave. He says he was born in Greenville, Texas and maybe education was Texas A and M University, right, Navarro College, Texas A and M and in Oklahoma City. Now do you understand why? I say why because it's baffling me. And I guess for I'm looking at it. You just had a coach leave that say things aren't good here, and you're leaving a program that we know has got mega dollars. Yeah, and it's your album mater And you're going, how did I never say that? Right? How do you say that? Now? I will say this too, And we hear this amongst real coaches talking about Alma Mater. I say, Alma, Alma Mater. But if the ni L is the way it is, maybe you don't have control over the kids like some coaches want, you know what I mean? And some kids are making so much money, maybe they just don't come to Oh. So you see it as dude would rather be at a school that doesn't pay a bunch and he can. Kids, he can coach, yeah, like not not manage, Like I didn't sign up to be a professional coach. I agree, And maybe some of these kids are become professional. It's a great point, right, That's why I'm here. That's why I asked, Yeah, all right. We'll have to get him on the show. I'll reach out. I got people you should that would be awesome. He was great. First question is why do you grow hair? And why aren't you sweating in suits anymore? That used to be the two things that was you knew most about him. Now he's got it. He used to be but I know he used to be bald, and he used to wear the suit and he would take off the jacket and he's soaking wet. You never see him do that anymore. Sometimes I see him in jumpsuits. Really. Yeah. Now his thing is the three piece, not just No. He didn't invest in everything, but lately I haven't seen him do that. Man, maybe I missed it. He was good at tech. I mean he got a lot out of them. Ye, all right. The final four set Duke, Houston, Florida, and Auburn. Who's your pick, Florida, I think you did well. I picked Huston and to win the whole thing from the beginning. But I have had the worst year. Of No, I stayed with those picks. I like crockets, So no, I mean I took Houston. Yeah. Uh. If I had to do my brackets over again, I'd have a Duke Florida final. The most shocking thing for me with Duke in Alabama was I I don't know that I've seen a college team play defense that well in a long time. Like, don't get me wrong, Alabama missed some shots, but Trent, none of their shots were wide open. Yeah, they were tough shots, and I just I was shocked at how well they played defense. And you know, we'll see because Houston are men, They're not boys. There. I'm looking at all the images of Buzz Williams coaching, and I do not see him without a tie on. I don't know what I was thinking I was seeing either, huh. I mean, you know, I think a light year or something, are you? I mean, I tell you what light Year? It is noticeable. No, there's a picture of him with that one, so maybe he sometimes wears them, but I thought it was noticeable. And I love it to watch Rick Patino in a three piece suit. Yeah, as the Godfather. Yeah, I mean that's listen. We love it. When we went to Liberty High School and John McSweeney, the head coach, was wearing a suit. Yes, it was awesome. Yeah, real quick, I'm gonna get off on a little bit of a tangent here, but it's it's if you haven't seen it, it's funny. I like Barstool. I'd watch a lot of their content, Barstool Sports. Okay, there's a guy on Barstool called Rico Bosco. I don't know if you're familiar with him at all. Not Rico is the crazy one. Like literally it's on TikTok where he just loses it at the office and literally throws a full can of soda something at somebody else's head. Dangerous so much so Dave literally said, look, you've got to go to anger management something. You can't come back to work. I mean, that's dude, you know, But they all antagonize him like it's their thing. Dude is friends with Natos, so he picks out Alabama to go to win it all. I think I have seen a clip of this. I'm telling you it's the funniest thing ever, because they lost to Duke. So his bet was if Alabama made it to the final four, they would fly him first class resort the whole nine to the final four. If they lost, he has to take a bus ride fifty seven hours two and I don't know who chose the route, but I'm like, like, I'm watching him now because he's literally documenting this. Dude, it is one of the funniest things you've ever seen in your life. Like he is showing the bus and there's no way I would get on that bus for any reason. And he says, yesterday, he shows a video and he goes, I had to interrupt my seat mate, and he has a video of the dude stretched out in the seat asleep with a coat over him, and he's like this, like it is not good. And he's at the bus stations with a layover right and it's disgusting. Oh, it has been a funny, funny, funny journey so far. But I don't like he's the guy says, so, what's your route? And he's like, well, I leave New York Philadelphia and then Indianapolis and then Atlanta and Nashville. And I'm like, what, who made this route? Yeah? I just think they're effing with him, like they've tried to find the farthest route they could make. I thought you were going to say, because I noticed, did you see? I thought it was Alabama, Duke, But I guess it may not have been where they were down six, but the points spread is three and a half and Alabama shoots a half court shot if I've got the right team. But maybe it wasn't it. Maybe it was Florida. Florida was playing it was guess the number, and so the duke, the number dude shoots a three point shot that nobody cares about, and it hits like the back of the rim like a dud, like it shouldn't, like it should have bounced off twenty feet. Instead it rolls, it falls down into the basket. So instead of losing by six, they lost by three, but because they got three and a half, they won. Yeah, so all the gamblers were, like half of them. Were arstool because I watched that. So the one I thought you were talking about was he told Dave Portnoy to bet the number. It's you pick your number. So apparently you can pick a team like Florida and you guess a number, which they chose ninety one in Florida. If they score over that, you know that's you win the bat, right, Okay, So Dave kept saying, you know, name your number, aman number. Well, he had told Dave to use ninety one. So Florida is playing somebody. It was the one that they scored like one hundred points whatever. But it's getting near the end and they keep it's not it looks like it may not happen, and Dave's freaking out and he goes, he says, I bet my whole account on this, and Rico's like, what, like he that his whole everything he had in his account. But they ended up winning. And so I don't know that's why I like Barstool. It's just they're crazy, they're nuts. Oh it's not on my list, but it just made me think of something. Please tell me, Emma, you saw this. And I hope Trent, I hope you've seen this. The Chanta Clairs Hawaii. No, who are the Chanta Clairs? I swear that I thought that was the white team? No, that is Coastal Carolina. Oh okay, right, all right. They have made a major announcement next year football, all concessions are free. Oh I did see this. Yeah? Does that include beer? No? I don't think it's alcohol. But literally they've done a commercial where the guy comes up and he goes, can I get a coke? And he's like, how about three? And he's like, it's all free and he's like a hot dog, how about Hamburg? You know, they're just everything? And he goes, you can have as many as you want, it doesn't matter. Everything's free. And so I think this was an athletic department that says we've got to get fans. We've got to get you know, we got to We're never gonna be able to build onto our stadium and be Liberty University if we can't. Yeah, you know, we're not going to keep coaching. That's interesting. Here's the interesting part. And this is what I told Logan today. It cracks me. It's a ticket price one hundred dollars. I don't I don't know. Yeah, but here's the one of these unattended consequences, yeah or whatever, yea consequences all right, Pat McAfee don't got a hold to it. And he's talking about on his show and he says, guess where we're going to be next year. He's like, you're giving away free food. We're going to see if we can put that to the test. Huh. So I told Logan, I guarantee you they didn't think of that. Not that it's a negative, but that just boosted your your little trick into the mainstream. That's interesting. Do you remember, like there was that guy that said our minimum wage that we're going to give all our employees. Is seventy thousand. Remember that, and then he didn't last six months because that's just stupid. He couldn't generate enough revenue. But we'll see if this works. I mean, you know you're going to take a hit. Yeah, but if you're packing out your stands, then your sponsors come along. Yeah. I don't know. We'll see. That is interesting, good outside the box attempt. Yeah, baseball, Yeah, I know it's way early and it's a drag season, right, you got to get through the whole season. But yeah, man, the that's just I haven't see what the standings are. Sawid doctor game than thats Yeah, And it's it's not that they wouldn't. I love their players, but I don't recognize a picture. I have no idea who these people are. You're not gonna win without pictures, and if you're not gonna get free agency, then you're just you're losing. So what do you think of the torpedo bat? I think there's no way at lasts when you got players going seven for seven. I can't understand that. So PTI had a yesterday was there April Fools thing? Yeah, it's the only April Fools thing that I got beat on yesterday because they actually did get me. I don't know. I was relaxed for a minute, and and they said it had been out lawed. And I've been waiting for this. Why wouldn't you outlaw it? How does a team get to have a different bat than everybody else? I don't understand that. I'm not exactly sure. I mean, I can see if you may it available to the league, But how does one team get to have a different weapon than anybody else? That doesn't make any sense to me. Yeah, I don't get it either. Isn't it available to all the teams? As far as I know, it was a developed by the Yankees and the yank But like the Marlins. I talked about this yesterday in Claus, the Marlins are like they're in production to get theirs too. There's a lot of teams that are not. Just yeah, because so that's what I'm saying. It should not be even if it's in production, how do you get to use it when no one else does. But some others are? Because? Uh, what's the guy for the Cincinnati Reds, That's all I was saying? Seven for seven with his torpedo bat, Dela Cruz? How does it? Why wouldn't a pitcher get to use different strings? Right? No, I'm on his baseball you. I don't understand baseball not having balls to tell the Yankees you can't do it, or tell de la Cruz you can't do it, right, shouldn't unless it's available to every team and every player. Correct Then I would say, Okay, I don't I don't get it. But did me? I thought the baseball used to regulate the bats, and you're saying now that they do, but they just allowed these people to use them. I mean what I had heard, and Emma just may have corrected me, But what I had heard was the Yankees developed the bat, and what they did was they put the density of material at the sweet spot to make that part heavier. It's a thicker part thicker and so the other part. So what I mean to me, it. Seems like it's the same diameter. It's going to be a lot of foul balls, because to me, it was a torpedo. If you'd get it off just a little bit, it's going to shank the ball. But I don't know physics. So apparently the Yankees got it approved. They hit the most home runs that they had had for a weekend season series. However, who's the big guy Justice? Not judge, judge, he's not using it. Ah, So I mean, I don't know if that's in the factor or not. But well, I mean I remember reading the other day that De la Cruz was seven for seven or something, and I'm like, all right, this this is getting ridiculous. But he has the bat. Yes, they did, So maybe I just misunderstood the story because I thought the Yankees were the only one, the only team that has the bat. I just remember reading about it the De la Cruz used the bat, huh, because I was looking up because I was watching the Braves game. Damn, the Braves are oh and six. Yeah. Wow. Well I was watching the Braves game and there was a De la Cruz and I was like, oh, they got De la Cruise from Cincinnati, And then I looked up Cincinnati. The first thing it said was he went seven to seven with a torpedo bat. Oh my god, wow. I don't understand that. I don't understand how you could use something different than any other team cans. And mean, yesterday he hit a four hundred and thirty six foot home run. Day La Cruz. Yeah, he's incredible. He is incredible, and I love watching him play because he's he's back at the old school. He's infectious. Right, Holy cow, the Dodgers are seven and oh, but the Padres are. Six and oh I know the Padres look great. Isn't that crazy? That's are terrible? What are the o's the natural one and five? The o's are three and two. But it seems like everybody in the American League is three and two or two and four. Okay, yep, all. Right, moving on, Well, were you gonna tussle with me with Remember he made a mark, he was gonna say something that I was going to argue with him about. Oh glad you glad you brought this up. Never done that? Okay? Women in sports, I specifically remember. Get this, Emma, this fact that I heard yesterday, And I want someone to dispute me that I'm wrong, But I saw it from someone that I trust, who does who says he did the research himself. Every women's world record in track, Oh my god. So every track event, the one hundred meters, the two hundred, the whatever, the hurdles such and such, every women's record has been beaten by a fourteen or fifteen year old boy. Isn't that crazy? So the point of the stat is not letting men at any age to get into any women's sport. It's unfair, that's the point. Run. Yeah, do you not agree? No, I heard what you said, and I think it's ridiculous. Yeah, so that's why these people out there are saying, well they took the puberty blocker earlier or whatever. Come on, any male is going to dominate, not any male, but the males that are in that sport are going to dominate your women. Right, all right, So when you have marathons, yeah, they have different categories. Yeah, but you don't start the women off first, right, everybody starts right. Yeah. Is a woman ever won in a men's category? No? No, and they're not going to. There's a reason you know. They should is given like that twenty five minute head start, so that they crossed the line at the same time. Is em a getting mad? Yes? No, yes, I heard it. I could hear the no. But if the fact is a fact, Emma, yeah, look at me, be kind, be kind now. Listen. I saw I saw where like a woman marine I guess had done the pugil sticks, you know, the two pillows on either side, you. Know, and you know, I know what you're talking about. But it looks like. It's a pugil stick. Why would they call it. It's just a military term. It's the big Q tip tip that has its a Q tip tip. Okay, but it's what they fight with, you know. The two combatants. That was my favorite thing of the Marine Corps boot camp I was in. Oh my god, it was so much fun. So you could just beat the hell out of the other guy with the pugil sticks. So this woman had beaten all the women in her little group and she. Was talking smack. So the marine who's the drill instructor, pulled just one guy out. It wasn't the big guy. It was just a guy out. Killed her. Oh Lord, killed her. Women. I'm not I'm just saying that's not hating on women. It's fact. It is just you can't put women in a combat role unless they can do the same thing that men can do, which is what our military has now started. Pete Hegseth has made sure that women and men, if they're going to be in a combat role, can all do the same thing. You got to be able to lift to the same amount of weight, you got to be able to run the same amount of distance. You can fight, you're allowed to fight, but you got to be able to do what the men can do. How many Navy Seals are women? No idea, They're zero. Okay, never has and never will be. Oh well they can't do the test and there's nothing wrong with that. They've tried. Yeah, they've tried to figure out a way. The Navy Seals were not changing the requirements because this is special Forces to allow. Female It was something VM I lied to us about when women came to VM. I you know, there no women and I'm not listen, I'm just talking about the facts. But they kept saying that it would be the same PFT, like women are going to come and I was like, man, there's just no way. There's no way that they're going to be able to do what we have to do. Let's make sure people understand. Hexseth has said that doesn't mean women don't have a role in the middle of tall. Of course there's there's a lot now. But I mean if you I don't it should be with anything, law enforcement or anything. Right, you're a danger to yourself if you can't perform right. Listen. And it's not just women. There are some out of shape officers that shouldn't be. You are not going to put a navy uh, a guy that's been on the boat. I mean, the Navy are like the big guys. You're not going to put them in the fox hole with the Marines in the front line because they can't do it either. Right right, that's right, exactly, all right? Moving on, YEP.

We are your go to State Farm agent. Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there. Call us today. It's time for news. All right, are you ready for this? I'll talk literally Corey Booker. Oh my god, this stuff up? Do you emma? Do you know who Corey Booker is? Do you know what a filibuster is only crap. This is where we're at, getting ready to graduate. I don't even know what a filibuster is. A filibuster, no, no, I'm trying to explain to you what a filibuster is. A filibuster is when you have a bill, it has to go through a procedural vote. The filibuster was put into place so that minority party could basically stop a vote by what's called filibustering. Talk about it until you hopefully change people's minds. Right. It literally is in per play so that you just don't have a majority rule. Unlike what people think we are. We are not a democracy. We are a republic. For that reason, majority doesn't just rule in America. You have the opportunity to filibuster. Right. So on the Democrats, God, they are so starving to be on the news. Please tell me you saw the ending of this trent. No, all right, Chuck Schumer says, I rise in hopes that you'll let me ask a question. And Corey Booker says, as much as I would like to, I deny because he wants to keep talking, right, But Chuck goes, but I'm here to tell you that you have just broken the record for the longest filibuster in the history of the Senate, and the crowd erupts and he literally is wiping away tears. Oh my god, dude, you've got to watch it because I can't embarrassing. I can't when your own party. Do you remember Kristen Cinema name sounds familiar. She was the Democrat from Arizona, the governor or senator, the senator, Yeah, who refused to vote. Let's not forget that. Just two years ago, the Democrats were trying to get rid of the filibuster because they couldn't get their agenda passed. Right, it was racist. It was Jim Crow and she voted against getting rid of it. And she said, I'm out. I'm not going to be called racist in any of this. She post ain't that something? Yeah? I thought that was a Jim Crow thing. Yeah, she posted that on Bookers thing, and I'm like, hell yeah. But here's where it gets really bad. It's not a filibuster. Yeah, there was no bill on the floor. That's what I thought. He's all he's doing is talking. There's no legislation. You're stopping. You just talked. Yeah, And for the news media, to run the headline that he broke a record and all these people are praising him today. I'm like, you just made all of. This up, and his he is trying so hard to be like an Obama. They want to they want to make one up. So I have convinced myself because I think later on you've got Mark Warner coming on right in one of your kiss I saw it, Emma, I'm sorry, no, no. What I thought was great about it is I think Mark Warner sees an opportunity. Okay, his party is so far gone that he could play himself off to be the Joe Biden. You know, I'm a center of the road Democrat and I have a shot at being president. I legitimately think, because he's just talking now. The only chance a Democrat actually has a chance is for a Republican to switch sides, put a blue hat on, say enough blue things, but really say more red things, but now have a blue hat and get rid of these crazies. That's the only chance they have right now, because they're they're not getting rid of their fringe, all. Right, So okay, but is it their fringe? Who were the seventy three million that voted for Kamala. Well, I mean that is true, and she was one. So you might be right. A Warner may not work because he can't get enough crazy is to vote for him. What I thought was funny about Booker and this stupid game that they did, And of course they're going to prop it up that it's something great, but I just thought, in my note, here is two people I saw, Elizabeth Warren and that Kobasher woman Amy kob they're so afraid that he he's going to get the publicity that he needs or that he desires, that they jumped in on it too, like hey, don't forget about me over here, and how she is trying, how Elizabeth Warren is trying to move herself up. It's sickening. So in all of this, yeah, I think you either texted, if somebody texted, how the election's going. And I've forgotten all about it. But for a week now I have heard how the Republicans were in trouble that Donald Trump literally had to go to Stefanski and say, hey, you're not going to be you in ambassador. I need you in Congress because we may lose the seats in Florida. Right, That's what I heard from the news, So I'm thinking, there's no way there was Matt Gates's seat and Mike Waltz like these are deep red places. Then I finally found a real article that said he was more worried about New York's special election, that Stefanski seat might lose, and not to a Democrat but to an independent that may caucus with a Democrat. That they're still popular in that area, but he was afraid that, like what happened here, would you dilute it to the point where you know, you get somebody you don't want. So last night I click on the elections Fox News, of all places, is convinced me that this was a referendum vote on Trump and Elon in Florida, Okay, And the article is reading it literally says that they won, but it's reading as if it was so close that this was a referendum on Trump. These are deep red areas, Trent, I'm not lying to you. I read the whole three page article. Do you think anywhere in that article it told me what the vote. Tally was won by double digits? Right, didn't know that until I googled three different times try to find it. When of you never not seen the election ticker last night, I couldn't find it. But guess what I did find in the article that the Democrats on both elections had outspent the Republican ten million to one million. Well that ain't small, that's large. But what mattered? How is that the referendum? The referendum wasn't that both Democrats lost by fifteen points. Shouldn't the article read? No matter how much money the Democrats spent, they got walloped. It's the whole turnaround thing. It's like the Wisconsin judge thing. The story today wasn't the Republicans winning, it's the Wisconsin and the Musk got beat. Okay, again, I take my time and I go clickity clack, clickity clack, and I look at Wisconsin. Let me ask you. If it was four to three conservative and the Democrat won last night, I would agree with you that's a referendum on Trump. Right, that wasn't the case. It was a four to three liberal. It's now still four to three, yeah, liberal. So what's the referendum. They were trying to unseat? Okay they were, yes, So Elon did spend a million dollars to try to unseat Right What they left out of the article was George Sorows spend a million dollars. Right exactly. What I don't I don't now. What I didn't see till later, until I scrolled down, was how about Wisconsin voting unanimously to require ID. Now they left that out of the referendum. That's a big, huge deal because guess what the judge can't overturn that I saw because it's a constitutional bot. I think it was Ben Shapiro is the Ben Shapiro. Charlie Kirk mentioned that the courts have lot let the Biden administration get away with the last census. So if you did the census properly without counting illegal immigrants as your population, that the mass migration of people from California and New York alone, plus the three Blue states, that if you just took California and New York and you moved the delegates to Tennessee, Texas and Florida, by the actual population that has moved, that there's enough seats that picked up from those three that if they had done it legitimately that if Kamala had even won Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, she should not have won because the electoral numbers would have been so heavy to Tennessee, Florida, and Texas that we didn't need those three states. Yes, and that's why they actually shipped the illegal immigrants to where they did, because look at how many are sneaking through making votes. So they said that you don't have to do it cinceus every ten years. That if Trump really wanted to play it, he could do a census again and say that it was illegal. And the courts have already said it wasn't done properly correct, they just didn't make them redo it. Why don't we play that game? Absolutely? I agree with you there one hundred percent. Yeah, please tell me you saw. And I wish i'd have got the clip for today and maybe do you have the new Gingrich clip? No, but I love new hilarious top five He was he testified in front of Congress this week. Huh did you see that? All right? So Mike Johnson is trying to get a bill passed that will stop the district the federal district judges from stopping nationwide executive orders. Sounds like a sensible bill to me. Of course, they have Newt Gingridge and some other panels in there and they're grilling them over, these judges, and this Democrat is grilling Newt Gingridge and he says, you know this, many executive orders were held up by judges and blah blah blah. And Knut's agreeing with him, and he said, and you call that a kupdetah right, And Nude says yes, and he says, well, there's only one problem with that. That was when Joe Biden was president and Republican judges held it up. And Nude said, thank you, you're making my point. This is why we need legislation. Oh no, this is not. And I'm like, dude, you just made his point for you. He's saying, you're right, judges shouldn't be allowed to do that. Yeah. But he thought he was so smart man. Yeah. And when Newton turned it on him like he was so like he didn't know what to do. Yeah, and that's what they do. They don't get it, man, And it should be legislation. I saw a Babylon b little Mimi this week or maybe it was last week, that Trump is resigning as president to be a district judge so he can have more power. I mean, I just I mean, yeah, yeah, because I saw what was it yesterday that a district judge said that you can't fire employees, No, you can't get rid of transgenders out of the military. Oh come on, And I'm like, here we go, Like, at what point in time? And I mean this sincerely. If a judge says, hey, you can't deport those immigrants, and one of those immigrants goes out here and murders a family, why can't that be judge, that a judge be held liable. Yeah, because that's what Trump is saying, Hey, we're deporting these disgusting people, and you're the one stopping it. I don't how does how does the judge get to do? I mean, isn't isn't there an injunction? Isn't somebody have to make a complaint first for a judge to make a decision. I don't understand. So they did acou Oh okay, all right, of course. That I mean that's how. Yeah, you know, that stuff gets drafted and it's just waiting on a bookshelf. Hey pull that one. It goes in front of that judge randomly, he stops the deportation. It goes to the Court of appeals. That is three or two. What got me was I had no idea that Justice Roberts was roommates with this guy that was on Fox News yesterday. Wow, because it's going to the Supreme Court. Yeah, I tell you. Roberts and Amy Cunny Barrett, they scare me. It ain't the one Cavanaugh also clerked with or worked with him, this judge. And the article was they look out for each other. And I'm like, listen, district federal district court judges shouldn't be able to stop stuff. Yeah, there's three hundred of them, right, It's ridiculous. And all it takes is one of them to go, no, you can't do that. All right, moving on, we are well, we don't have time limit. Wisconsin. We went over that tariffs. Today is Liberation Day, and I wanted to spend two minutes just explaining tariffs because I don't I really don't think people understand what tariffs are. It was liberating and sitting in a restaurant yesterday and a gentleman from this area comes in and I say hi, and he says hi, and I say house business, that's how you right? And he says terrible. I was like, oh no, I was like you got a great company. And he's like, dude, we haven't made mon for three years. I was like, God, He's like it gets worse every year. With he is in the salt industry. It's all males, okay. And he said, what if I told you that we spend money on politicians. It's not a small this is a huge conglomerate. We spend money on politicians. We go to all the meetings, We do everything we can to fight for the lumber industry. And he said, what if I told you that a vast majority of lumber products are imported from Chili. He's like why and he's like, that's why we're struggling. We can't get Americans to buy American. They're being shipped in from Chili. And he goes, now, we understand that. We knew that we have to compete with that. And he said the vast majority, the largest comes from Canada. But he said, here's the problem with Chili. It was until doge Chili can't do it better than we can. They were being subsidized billions to produce lumber and send it back here to sell it free. And you go and he said, this is what he said, And I was like, Oh, nothing's changed, and he goes, oh, no, we've seen a massive change since the election. But we're I'm just saying it's getting better. But that's where we were. And I'm like, I don't think people understand the USA ide effect. This isn't this much. I try to comprehend what's going on. And he said the tariffs will be life savor for us. Who's saying that in the media. And this is what he explained to me. And I only wanted to been a quick second on this because I didn't know this. He said, you look up Cabot cheese. We all have bought Cabot probably it's a major cheese manufacturer in America. They sell cheese, but they also sell butter. There's I think, he said, seven miles from the Canadian border. What do you think it costs them to sell butter in Canada? How about a two hundred percent tariff? But Canada can sell it in America for no tariffs. He said, Now you tell them, hey, we just placed a reciprocal tariff on them. All bets are off. Now we're even where's the high prices coming from. That's the part I don't think people understand if you can buy butter from Cabot now or you can buy it from Canada. Well, if Canada now has to pay two hundred you don't have to pay two hundred sent more. You just have to buy from cabin That's right. What does that do for us? We produce more butter? Why I don't understand why people can't understand this. So one I saw yesterday was because I watched the British news versus our news. Is the guy and man, do they hate Trump? So I watched the news but still liberal over there and due, man, do they hate Musk and Trump? They hate They hate them more than probably our media does, especially Musk. But the guy said, he's complaining about Trump's tariffs. And he says, and first off, about the only thing that we really send over there, or that they send us that we tariff is cars. And he's like, but no one here wants to buy their cars. I was like, hey, idiot, you just said, of course they're not going to buy our cars. They're too expensive. You've put the tariff on us, but you don't get a tariff on you. Right, That's the part I don't think people understand that they don't tear. We're not tariff in the right. They don't get that. And so when Trump says tariff, they go, why is he punishing them? No, no, idiot, We've been the one being punished. I don't think they understand it, Trent. So what's going to happen is. We are going to be more competitive because China's stuff that comes over here that's much more than any other country, is going to be more expensive. How does China get around that? Manufacture it here, right, bring it here? And that's what I love over the time. Is Steve Miller the one we love. But you have to pay our people to work on those things at our labor rates, not at what you were doing in China exactly. So if you or start paying your people more, right, you're getting away with your cheap labor because you can just sell something cheaper here. Yes. Yeah, So is the Steve Miller that we like so much? Yes? All right? So I think it was him with the interview with CNN where he's being grilled by the stupid lady and he says back to her, well, I mean Ford and Chevrolet aren't American maid, and dude, the smirk on her face of Oh my god, this guy doesn't know like she thinks she knows more than him, and she says, yes, they are, and he's like, no, here's what I'm trying to tell you. Honda's are American maid and she thinks he's crazy until he says, do you realize that ninety percent of the stuff that's inside the Chevrolet and Ford are imported and assembled in America? Honda makes and assembles in America, Like they don't know that. I'm kind of interested to see how this flushes out. I hope this is not just a one week thing. I hope this is by and be able to take all the darts that are going to come our way. Well, here's the thing that I am hopeful with. You and I both know this. If if you are a millionaire and I make one hundred thousand dollars a year, and you teariff me and I tear if you, it is reciprocal, You're gonna come out on the winning end. That's right. That's where I've said. If you're a country and you've been getting away with it, what you should have done is said, Donald, you're a businessman, don't put us out of business. How can we help, and he would have given you. Hey, you know what, get rid of the tariffs. Yeah, but we can't. It's fifty percent of our income. We'll make it up in fuel. So that the dude's a businessman, he's not gonna put you out of business. That's why he made the comment about Canada. You might as well become the fifty first stake because if we do to you what we can do, you're bankrupt. Well why don't people people see that? So I love what JD fans said. We're tired of being everybody's bank. Yes, you're stealing from us, correct, and we let it happen. And Trump says, I don't blame you for letting it happen. We had a derelict at the table before here, but. It's not going to happen anymore. If it all shakes out the way it should, the dude will be in the history books. Is the greatest. He could literally transform us into being a powerful state, good state. Stop murdering other countries. Leaders, stop getting in the endless wars. Everything we've all asked for, including Democrats. We hate Trump. That's they can't get past it. Yeah, I'm interested to see how these shake out. Now last one. They stick with what you've always been asking for. The Nashville shooter. Yeah, have you read anything on it? Not a word? Apparently the article or the report has been released from the Nashville police. I mean the Vega shooter or the Nashville bomber. The Nashville shooter of the school. Yes, oh okay, the school shooter. Yeah, okay, the dyke I mean the correct Yeah. I read the article. I tried to read it quickly before I came over here. I could have sword said there was no manifesto. It does say that, doesn't it. There was a manifesto. That's what I thought. This article says it wasn't. No, I'm saying it is or isn't. Isn't correct? There is no manifesto what the police department had put in their report. I thought that we were upset because they never released it. That's what I thought. In the report it says there was no manifesto. But there's just a collection of journals and things of her describing why she is the way she was and what she wanted to do. Isn't that a manifesto? So like a diary? So what is scary is she thought he she whatever. It was like she literally wrote that what she was going to do would somehow end up in museums and they would she could inspire others to do the same thing. Oh my god, Like she wrote that. Yeah, that's a sick individual. Yeah wow. So anyway, you had, I know, you had brought up that you wanted to see some of this stuff, but it did come out. I do like there's still but the question you have to ask yourself is did they withhold that information because they thought it would inspire other people? Yeah, here's some questions I still want to know, and I'm glad I'm starting to circle its way back around. Is the dude at the golf course? Yes? I mean I still ain't heard Jack Ioda about that one. How about gold at Fort Knox? How did that. Leave the news cycle without being answered? How do we not know if there's gold in Fort Knox? That was something big a month ago right there? We never did, we never followed up. JFK filed came out. There has anybody done a report on it? How is that not in sixty minutes? Oh my god, I got it. Have added I've got some sixty minutes stuff. That's just incredible, incredibly stupid. Ummm, let's see, all right, moving on, win win win. We're gonna win, win, win, and we're gonna make America great again. All right, cut three, excuse me. Somebody had to do it. I am the chosen one. Somebody had to do it. So I'm taking on China. I'm taking on China on trade, and you know what, we're winning because we're the piggy bang. Love him right on, But I love when he said it. He looks up, I'm the chosen one, and I'm telling you, man, he trolls them. Oh god, they have better than anything else. And he's so comfortable. Now he's like such a president. Now here's like he's comfortable being one. What's the old saying? History repeats itself. If anybody's ever read Reagan's autobiography, it's phenomenal. And one of the things he said is when he got shot, he said, I literally had a vision from God that my rest of my time as being president, I'm meant to be here. I have to be here. I'm sparing your life because this is what you have to do. When I see him do that, and people have talked about it when he was shot. That's what he said, that I'm chosen to be here. I think he believes it. And by the way, he's not saying he's the Messiah. Calm down. He's saying, I think I'm chosen by God to fix this freakin country. What's wrong with that? I love that he trolls him that stuff about being elected against. Oh god, it's hilarious, by the way. Crap. But they cut out the part of a third term and do you think Barack Obama would run against you? I never heard that clip until today. The second part was do you think Barack Obama would would run against you? And he said, Oh, wouldn't that be awesome? Like in his mind, I think he thinks it would be great for the country. Yeah, but they troll it with a Trump's running for a third term and he knew it when he said it. Yeah. I love him. I love when he does that stuff. It's so good. All right? Top ten? Today's top ten? Hell, now your top ten for the week. She's more like a five. You know. I'd love to do a segment called listener feedback, But I mean, I get it from time to time, but we just I want listeners to give us feedback. Of course, from time to time, I get it, Like I got a text from a listener that said it was a UVA that transferred to Tennessee, which I thought was kind of cool. But I haven't gotten any responses from people on veterans. Oh yeah, and that is something we want to do. Yeah, I can't do it unless people participate. Yeah, so I'm lecturing our audience. Get off your rear ends what hour two? Get off your ass, turn down your ears? Pat all right, Yeah, today's top ten March Madness busts. So these were people that were badasses in March Madness but didn't just disappear. Yeah, just kind of disappeared after that. What's going on with that over there? I don't know. Like I keep seeing the light go off. We got some weird stuff going on in the studio. What are you staring at? Was looking at your picture on the screen. There's a screen on the little con that's filming you. Why are you filming us? I don't so I can see you for your cues. For my cues. Yeah, shut up, move faster. I have never anyway? All right? Number ten, Yeah, Trent's favorite Jimmer Jam Jimmer Jam Jimmer Fredette. Do you remember Jimmer Fredette? What team do you play for? Oh? That is a great trivia question. I'm gonna go with b YU. It was sweet. By the way, Quickly, Why how does BYU manage to get the number one player in the nation. I'm watching the Uh. I didn't know they had millions. I'm watching the McDonald's All American game last night. Huh. And the guy says he is the largest ni L athlete ever. Wow. And I'm like, hat, where is he getting that from? BYU? Interesting? Yeah, maybe that's how Jimmer got there back when they couldn't tell you or was it extra wives? True? That's his nil. So do you remember the last news we've heard of Jimmer for that? Do you remember? No, he was on the Olympic team last year in the Summer Olympics. I promise you you think Jimmerferdet was on the men's Wait, don't you tell me some junior league or FIFA. He was on the gold medal US Olympic team. He did not win gold. He was on the USA basketball team three on three. Oh jesus, what I'm just saying. You wouldn't have guessed that many years later that he's still playing basketball and representing the US. Okay, I'm sorry, I forgot that they had a three on three league. Yeah. Watch that interesting Okay, Okay. Number nine yeah, jaliel Okeefor. I saw him not too long ago. He has been dominant in the G League and just doesn't move up. He did get caught, Oh he did. It's with the Pacers now, no kidding, but people don't remember. But they won a national championship with him, and he was dominant at Duke. Yeah, and then he went to the seventy six ers. I didn't know this. His rookie year with the seventy six ers nineteen points a game. Yeah, he was good, but then it dropped off Wade after that. He had some off court problems that it seemed like it got into his head and he never got he never recovered. Uh. Number eight Jack. Never never heard this guy before in my life. Oh god, can you google highlights of Jack Gulky and watch him or see him? Like literally, Jack almost single handedly knocked out n C State last year. That's who they eventually lost to in the tournament. I don't I don't remember. He was thirty three points, twenty two points, twenty eight points like he. Was, Oh, yes, I do kind of remember Oakland ran around. He was an adult though, wasn't he. He was like, yes, he's like twenty five. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. Which, by the way, I heard Auburn. You know they're in the final four. Auburn is so old that their team is older than the Oklahoma City Thunder. Oh wow average age. That's crazy. They got it. He had a twenty five year old who has another season remaining? Wow? Yeah, all right? Number seven, yeah, matteen cleaves Man. He had a good run. But I certainly don't remember him in the NBA. I don't even remember him ever playing in the NBA if he did, but he was great at Michigan State, remember, yeah, Florida. I remember number six. O Mecca Oka? Oh my god? Did I get him both? Did I get one mixed up with the other? A Mecca? Who's a Mecca? O Mecca was the tall from Yukon, Okay that was dominant in the tournament and then nothing. Wasn't there a guy named the Beat? Wasn't he a dominant dude in th h A B E T. T. Who do you play for Yukon? That's who I thought you meant anyway? Ok for Mecca was that? I mean he was just unstoppable. Yeah, seven footer huh but could shoot the three and then nothing. I don't even know. I don't even know if he got of course he had to. Who was that tall giant guy that was at Central Florida that was like ginormously tall, and I think he's in the NBA. Oh h oh yeah, Taco Fall, Taco Fall. Yeah. Uh number six or excuse me, number five? Yeah, Greg Odin yep, stud at Ohio State. Yeah, never did anything in the NBA. Four Frank the tank Kaminsky man, I really thought he was going to be a good NBA Wisconsin. Yeah. Yeah, we just had that fundamental stuff. Yeah, which I guess that means probably not a good sign for Who's the guy at Purdue that just went to the NBA. They remind me of each other, the big John Edney. Oh yeah, but he's he seems pretty good at Memphis. Yeah, Okay, he's seen it. He's been in a few pushing matches. Yeah, he pushes back. It's good. Okay. Uh. Number three Yeah, and this is who I would Paara Frank to Tank two with Tyler. Hansborough Yeah, he never really did anything, but he was great in great college player. Yeah, number two Shabaz Napier, didn't he hit the game winner? Yeah for Ukon when they won the championship. He was the first step back shooter that I've ever remembered doing something. And he's the one that said they were starving. Yes, remember Hungary? Yeah, come on. And and he was the guy that Lebron James told the Heat they had to take because he was the best point guard ever. Yeah, and he wanted him there. And then he signed with the Heat and Lebron went to Cleveland and he never did anything with the Heat. Yeah. It was horrible. And number one by far as Adam Morrison, I would agree with that. Dude did nothing in the NBA. Yeah, but was a great college not just college. But I'm not a tournament. I think he won a championship though in the NBA. Did oh riding the bench? Yeah, I'm pretty sure. All right. That's my top ten. On my list that you didn't have is Lenn Bias. He was a little before my I remember him, but I don't remember a tournament wise him being great in the tournament. Yeah, maybe a CEC tournament that was more or less that he passed away. That's why I never really did anything in the NBA, that's true. Yeah, Randolph Childress, God, that is a good one. Now he was more again the ACC tournament versus the NCAA. But you just made me think of one that was phenomenal in the tournament won a national championship. I think one Dixon. Oh yeah, with Maryland. Yeah, yeah, who would have guessed that the other guard would have had a longer career Steve Blake. Blake had a much longer career. Oh yeah, he was in NBA for a while, that's true, and he was kind of a sub. Yeah, he was tough at Maryland. Yeah, that team was good. I liked watching that team. And the last one I got is Pittsnogle Pittsnago Yeah at West Virginia. Oh yeah, Actually you got me thinking because I saw a TikTok one night of the Kentucky players, John Wall and somebody else talking about not winning a national championship at Kentucky and losing to West Virginia, and he goes, do you remember that team, and he said, yeah. Joe Missoula, who's the coach of the Celtics, was the point guard that they lost to. And then I was like, oh, I wonder if Pittsnoggle was on that team. And it was like a year or two before, and I was like, I remember Trent and I at the McSweeney or Sweeney Circle. Yeah, Pittsnogle. All right, that was the old evo. Oh yeah, yeah, watching Pittsnagle over and over and over. Yeah. I remember in high school. I think it was high school Duke got knocked out of the tournament and I was devastated, like I could not believe they could lose to col California. Yeah. Oh, I was just tore out of the frame. How could you lose to a team like California. Their point guard was Jason Kidd. Oh yeah. And I'm like, okay, I don't feel so bad now. Years later or Virginia Tech played in the Emerald Nuts Bowl or something out in San Francisco and they lost to I guess it was cal Yeah football, and the school was like fifty eight to forty nine or something. Aaron Rodgers, Yes, And I was like, okay, I get it. It's funny. Later on you go right kind of get how we lost that? All right, have at it. I just got three things to say. God bless our troops, God bless America. Stock God. So I found some old clips here and this is Mark Warner. But listen to his answer here. This was back after the inauguration or the State of the Union whatever they called it, for his first year, where Trump had mentioned the thing about all you needed was a new president to get the numbers down. So Mark Warner. Apparently made the mistake of telling the truth. And listen to him try and backtrack the next day, the day after, he made a little news about essentially repeating what Trump had said. Listen, listen to how they are not allowed to even say the truth anymore. Cut to let me ask you about immigration. Donald Trump last night said that in order to fix the immigration issue at the border, the crisis as he calls it, all you needed was a new president. You didn't need legislation. No legislation is necessary. You just needed a new president. I got a lot of big cheers from Republicans. You were saying on Fox News, I believe it was yesterday that Donald Trump has done a good job at the border. So do you agree with that assessment that Donald Trump is the only thing that's needed to change the circumstances at the border. I think it is good that we're at a twenty five year low in terms of border crossing. My words yesterday, yeah, they were not great. Let me be the first to acknowledge that. And I think what he's doing to work? Why weren't they great? Why weren't they great? Because the notion that the numbers are down, which I think is good for American I think the vast majority of Americans realized President Biden didn't have a secure enough order. Those numbers are down, that's good news for our country. But the idea that that. Becomes an ability to sanction ice, to have you know, unfettered immigration, unfettered immigration raids doesn't make sense. So my choice of words yesterday, you know, I'd like to take him back the data does it? Just on the numbers being down? What we've got to do going forward? And we again heard last night from a president who had a State of the Union that I'll stand by my words, was the least amount of outreach to anybody who didn't vote for him, that doubled down on all the MAGA issues. It's not wasn't a good night for America last night. See what I mean, he's not even allowed to say. I wonder if he's going to get another one, because he apparently was on somebody's news network the other day agreeing with Trump and literally said the words, yes, I think he's done a phenomenal job. So I guess he's gonna get in trouble again. Yeah, all right. So that's why I said, I think he's angling for something. You know, it might be to be quite frank that he sees that Younkin only has a year left as governor. I am praying that Younkin goes after Mark Warner. Younkin is so good man. I was just at an event with him last week, or I was at an event that he was at last week. He is so polished. He's just a natural, ye, just kind of a motivating guy that understands just rational logic. All right, So who does not understand rational logic? Listen to Leslie Stall interview a prisoner that just got released by the a RABS that's Jewish from the whole October thing. Listen to what she asks him that based on one of his responses Cup fifteen. The terrorists became very mean and very cruel and violent. More so much more so. They were beating me and starving me. Do you think they starved you or they just didn't have food? No, I think they starved me, and they they would often eat in front of me and not offer me food. Who asks him, Jesus Codd Almighty? Who asks him? Do you just think that maybe they didn't have food too? What are we doing? That's the woman that had Trump on there, and it's come on, we're sixty minutes. We know that the laptop was not real. She is still on air, she's still doing this stuff. To know what their ratings are. Okay, Like, we've got to be down to single digits. I know we're getting done here now. I don't care. I'm gonna I want to skip. I'm gonna skip the next two. But oh, it was that thing back when the choose your Fighter thing? Do you remember that? Yeah? Do you remember that video where they're the women telling you what do they have? Okay, all right, let's play it. Choose your fighter? All right, here's all the Democrats acting like they're what was that Mortal Kombat where there women fighting and they got. What are we doing? Have you ever seen this? They're like, oh, chopping their fists, the women congressman and they're all punching the screen. I mean, it's the most lamest thing in the gave me the what's so sad? That? Give me on this? Okay, now, that's just what I wanted to do because I know this was kind of famous. But listen to what Scott Jennings says after this. Listen to what the Democrats. Listen to what the Democrats says about that video cut twenty one. Have you do something creative, you're gonna get criticism, right, But I actually applaud them for trying to do something different. And here's the reality seven lean followers. Whether you think it's cringe or you like it, we're on CNN on a Thursday night and we're talking about it on national TV. But I guess my question is to what end? I don't get it? Like I don't get it. I mean, maybe you will get seven million eyeballs. But what is the point. I am not a them to helping your party do anything. But let me give you some advice. This was the dumbest thing I've ever seen. And if you read the comments. Today, Lord have mercy. Look scrambling for new social media and communications strategies is not a replacement for fixing what's actually wrong. Your party has a twenty one percent approval rating right now, Congressional Democrats, let's. Talk about fixing what's wrong. Donald Trump was doing nothing for the American. He has a fifty percent approval rate. Let me just spit facts at living advice. He tells lies, fix the policy and leave the gimmicks behind. Yes, you do that. He's telling you what you should be listening to. And I love the way he says it. I'm not used to helping your party. Yeah, but dude, stop like and for her to say, I'm on CNN, yeah talking about it. Dude, ain't nobody watching that either. The reason you're on there talking about it is how cringey and awful it was right to So to them, that was success. I know that was like holding the little signs up. Yes, we still remember the signs being up, right, because it was stupid. That's what I'm saying. I don't think they know the difference. Yeah, because to us, what we saw and what real American people see is the idiots holding up signs in fighting. Yeah this, I mean that's your party now, all right, So this last thing that I want to play. So I like to do dumbasses and then something good. Okay, so this is the something good. This interview is from twenty years ago? Is that right? Nineteen ninety five? Would it be? Or is that thirty? It's thirty years ago? Okay, right, God, what's wrong with me? Rodre ails? Okay, Roger ayls when he the head of Fox. Yeah, okay. This is an interview that he did with Donald Trump in nineteen ninety five. Listen to the way Donald Trump talks. The man has never changed. Oh and we won't listen to the whole four minutes and twenty three seconds, but listen, it's about the first minute and a half or something that is just I mean, all of it's fascinating me. But go ahead and cut FORDZ. You went through some tough times. But I'll tell you something. I saw you. I forget well, I saw you. I've known you a long time and I saw you at your peak. I also saw you during that those bad times. And you know what always impressed me. You were no different. Well, thank you. That's a good no different, that's a good compliment. You can't take it too seriously. I mean, I know you're gonna be up. I'll be up, I'll be down, I'll be You can't really guys like us. You just keep coming. That's all you can do. And yeah, sometimes it's not easy. They say, come on out to dinner, and you have four hundred people and they're looking and staring and they're saying, I wonder how he's taking adversity. But you learn a lot about yourself, and you learn a lot about other people. You learn about loyalty. I learned a lot about loyalty. I had people that I would have bet the ranch on and they were not as loyal as they should have been. Right. And I had people that I wouldn't have and they turned out to be I mean, unbelievable. Really that interesting. Yeah, So you just can't tell. It's not color, it's not race, it's not religion, it's not anything, Roger, you just can't tell. Rich guys are often not well liked guys. But what's interesting to me is the average ye, the guy in the street, the cab drivers, the the guys working on the road cruise, Oh hey, Donald, how's it going. Hey. They it's almost like they feel very comfortable with you, like you're one of them. And it's I've never quite figured out how you bridged. The people that don't like me or the rich people. Okay, that's that's a funny thing. I mean, the true stand man, I have friends, and I have not only friends that have enemies Jared. They work, they hurt people, they this, they that, and then they call up, can you help me get a reservation at a restaurant? Okay, So what's the purpose of being rich if you can't get a table at a restaurant? The people that like me are the people that you're talking about. Rich people do not like Donald Trump. The whole thing, the whole clip is just really really cool. But it is cool. The guy just has he has the respect of the people that built his buildings, sure you know what I mean, And he knows how to build them when you've ever been around and you know what it's like to have to build something and get something approved, all the things, and he's gone through it all. Yeah, and he and that's why, I mean, people just sucked up to that. Now. I agree with you one hundred percent. And it's it's I think it's the him knowing that and the Democrats still not understanding what that means yeah, like they could always stand there and rely on the news media to say, there are the party for the working people. Yeah, until the working people started going, wait a minute, what are you? What have you done? Yeah? And Donald Trump was the one that said what have they done? Yeah, you're over there bilking money from Ukraine and China. I mean, your son is taking money. And then they just kept standing by. I mean many of them kept standing behind him. But really the people knew. Do you remember we were at Wiley Wilson. I think, I think, and I may be wrong, but George Bush was president. The wouldn't but anyway, George Bush was president. And we heard all the people talking about Halliburton. Remember remember Aliburton, Dick Cheney's tie defense contractor all right, I'll be honest with you, I'm like, that's a bunch of crap. Yeah. And then I watched Sean Ryan and Sean goes, well, gosh, we all knew that. Yeah, I mean Haliburton had all the contracts, Dick Cheney is the vice president, of course, I mean billions of dollars was being sent. We all knew it. And I'm like, I'm a Republican. I don't want that right exactly, But we just didn't know if we had a news media that was worth a crap that would have. That's why I really hope this Doze and all the stuff that they're talking about, and the horrible financing so there apparently there was ninety eight percent of one of the big marketing firms out there, ninety eight percent of the income came from the government. So if Doze cuts that off, that's a lot of employees to be laid off because that was your income stream. But it's not healthy. You were were we were a country, we were a government that was spending more than we were taking in. Yeah, you have to. So there's going to be heartache. Those people have got to go find private jobs. So what happens because I did read where Elon Musk was was going to be stepping away it just as soon. But Doze isn't going away when he steps away. So what do the Democrats do. I've always said that it doesn't matter if you take away Trump, They're still going to throw darts. So my question is who do they start throwing darts to. You said you watched that. I told you. Brett Baer was interviewing the doge too. God, it was fantastic, unbelievable, by the way, Leslie, that's how you do an interview. Yes, you just asked a question and you don't know what the answer is going to. Be, and you follow up based on their answers. Correct. It was a phenomenal interview. Your word, it was fantastic. But here's the thing. They're good at telling you what went bad. Are we going to follow up a year from now. And it's not there anymore? Correct? That's what I hope. That's the problem I have. Like I listened to Sean Ryan when he says, nothing changes if you get rid of USAID because USAID was being directed by the State Department. You're telling us now you're getting rid of USAID and it's being consumed by the State Department. What's changed, right, You just got rid of the name USAID. That's what I'm hoping we will are not doing, correct, That's what I hope. If you're still going to send money to Chili to make wood to send here to put our sawmills out of business, then that doesn't help us a bit. So I need your favorite, your middle and your long shot for the weekend. Oh all right, now Darlington. Right now, Kevin's in the lead at thirty two points. I didn't go back all right, more season. I just went to last week. So I thirty nine and you got forty six. I'm going to take Billy Byron. Byron's your good pick. Yep, Okay, I'm going to take Can I tell you my long shot? Yeah? Eric Jones. God, that's a great, great picket because. He's won there twice. Yeah, it's like the two races that he's won and then you go, okay, it's a real thing. But he's still five thousand, he's plus five flowers. I'm taking it. It's a good long shot. So oh gosh, I'm gonna go Chris Buscher. I keep. I keep thinking he's gonna be doing it. And he's plus twenty six hundred. Oh so that's funny because I took Buscher too, So I got Reddick. He's my favorite Buscher Millan and you know who it took his long shot, Austin Dillon. Just I mean, his numbers are really big. Your brother does not understand, no, that you that you pick a long shot. He's he's got Byron, which that's who you took. He's got Chris Bell. Oh, come on, man, and then he's got uh busher when you're his long shot is not a long shot. His long shots are all three playoff drivers. Get the long shot. We should say top ten, middle ten, bottom, twenty, that's what we should. Pick one one, multiple and never one. Yeah those are your three. Yeah, so we got to get him to work on understanding. All right, this is all I got so into show. What do I have it in the show? Oh, you did the one hit wonders of the top ten your NCAAA picks. Yes, your NCAA. You know, they just had this one hit they never made at the NBA. If you had to do a one hit wonder what would be your list of one hit wonders? Oh god, that's definitely one of them. Oh you saw it, all right? Never mind, No, no, he wouldn't. Probably he would not have been my first choice. Almost did achy breaking Heart with uh yeah. That one was a massive one, but the my carena oh that would have been going. Yeah, what has ever been done after that? Yeah? I don't even know who sings it. Who was the Korean guy that did? Oh god, what was that thing? Yeah? That guy? What was the one with why are you laughing? What was what was the thing that fox? I don't know what song you're talking about. What's the one that where the fox goes? Okay, all right, so this is the one hit wonder just because what your top ten was. And I guess everybody have a good week. All right? Yeah, next week is up in the air, so we'll have to figure. I'll be I'm in uh I'm serving my penalty my tour and I'm in Charlottesville where uh my, you know what my community services did? I tell you what it is? What I'm going to western part of Virgini Lee County to help build Appalachian homes, help rebuild, you know, renovate. Yeah people, you know ramps. We'll see when you we see you. Yeah, yeah, yo, VIP. Let's take it. All right, stop collaborate and say I sit back with my friend. When something grabs. A hold of me tightly flow like a hawk Dailien nightly whatever, stop y'all. I don't know. Turn off the lights and I've close to the extreme. I walk a mic like a van dul light off the stage and watch a chump like I can't don't dance want to speak of that booze. I'm killing your. Brain like a poisonous mushroom, deadly when I'm playing dope melody, anything less than the best. It's a fella need love it to leave it. You better, I can't wait. You better get bulls out of here. Don't play. If there was a problem, yo, I saw it. Check out the hook one. My DJ revarsed. Now that the party is jumping with the face kick, then then the biggas apartment quick to the point, to the point, no Frankkin cooking them seeds like a pounds up bad fit and turning them being quick, getting nimble. I go crazy when I hear a symbol and a. High hat with a soup up tempo, I'm gonna roll. It's trying to go solo rolling. Then my five point oh with my racktop down so my hair can blow. The girl is gonna stand by waiting just to say hid no, I just rolled. If I kept on, But. So with to the next stop, I must have left and I'm heading to the next block. The block was dead, yo, So I continue to a one A girls were hot with ing less bikinis, rock men love us driving a bikinis jellous because I'm out getting mine shape with the cage of vanilla, with the nine, ready for the chumps on the wall. The chump's actually there because the bull of eight ball gunshots rings out like a bell. I grabbed my nine on a herd, but shell falling on the concrete real fast, jumped in my car, slammed on the cast bumpa. The bummer of the avenue's packed. I'm trying to get away before the jacka's jacks. Please on the scene. You know what I mean. They passed me up. I could run it all the dope beats if there was a problem, Yo, I saw it. Check out the hook with my DJ repost take heed because I'm a lyrical poet. Miami's on the scene, just in case you didn't know it in my town. That created all the fake sound enough to shake and kick holes in the ground. Because my style is like a chemical spill, feasible rhymes and conditioning food conducted in form. This is a hell of a concept. We make a hype and you want us to put this shape pastes on a face, slices like a new just cut, like a racing bade so fast, brother did say tail o'roon was a drug, I'd sell it by the grim keep my composing with It's time to get loose, magnetized by the mic while I kicked my shoes. If there was a problem, Joe I saw him it check out the hook while DJ reposed, Yo, man, let's get out of here. Word to your mother. Bring
