I literally was making a meeting today at work that thinking today was Tuesday, and they were like, it was already Wednesday. Yeah. I'm like, oh god, I can't believe. It off like this. So in the studio trientp. Warner, it was back there pushing buttons. So I know what you mean. I'm a little off today as well. I guess I got in trouble this morning. Your wife, how did you guess? Did she say something I would have? I would have jumped to that conclusion too. I feel like we all could have. What did you do? Now? Is it always mean? Because I know you did something? Have been sweet, Ashley? I have got to learn. I don't know. I'll move on. Are you sleeping on the couch, dude, I've been. On the couch since we mad. Uh? Anyway, that's not true. She literally is the epitome of the person that is the most flexible wife. I know, easy double. I just uh, we're getting a new we went over this. We're getting a new kitchen and a new bathroom. So I know the next month is going to be brutal, yes, but also with that comes some challenges and so yeah, what happened this morning was a little rough. Anyway, we move on. So if I see you sleeping outside of a scooter, actually scooter will be. I actually apologize this morning. Oh good grief, wait the gas button, the gas I did apologize and she uh, she sent me a video that was quite funny. Look good. I'm glad she's over it now. I don't think she is. And I'll invite if things get really bad my place anytime. Ashley wants to come on over. Not you, not you, No, I want ginger. Ye. Anyway, this last week Friday, we had the crawfish show up. Okay, so Logan came over and we uh he and I did a crawfish bowl. Well, let me just say this, the TikTok that you watch on crawlfish, Yeah, they never tell you how long it takes the water to come to a bowl. That's actually the hardest part. It's waiting for that to come if it's a windy day. Yeah, very bad. It took forever. Yeah, but we finally got everything the way we wanted it got it bolt Man, were they good? Obviously? We twenty pounds was weigh too much? Yeah, but I will say this. The next morning, I took out a whole pan and I sat there all morning long and I cracked tails and I pulled tails out and cleaned them and put it on a ziplock bag. We had a whole ziplock bag of crawlfish tails. Oh man, great, they are good. If you have trouble with that water thing, if you do half your water first, and of course you don't know it until you're trying to do it, but you know, fill it halfway first, let that boil, and then at the next water. So anyway, it turned out good. I think everybody enjoyed it. Reagan on Saturday morning had a five. K run so she uh she finished, yep, good. Yeah, she's still sore. She though she was complaining of being sore because she was supposed to she could have done extra volleyball workout yesterday and she was like, eh. Sore, yeah, I get it. Well, running muscles are different than volleyball muscles, so I'm sure it's not the same. She is that she reminds me of my sister too. So what did you had? The we. I went down, Riley was just so happy. I got my wires crossed. We had friends over on the deck Friday night, and Riley sent me a text and she goes, the parents here are really cool, but I wish you had been here. They're not as funny or something like that. I got my wires crossed. I thought, well, you didn't want me to come up Friday night because she had a formal to go to. I didn't know the formal meant me to go to, so I had said, well, I'll come up Saturday morning. She said great, because that's the way Riley is. She doesn't want you to go be put out or whatever. So I went up Saturday morning. I apologized to her. I said I misunderstood I wanted to go to the Virginia baseball game against Clemson, and you said you didn't like baseball, so I just assumed when you said you had something to do that that was right. So anyway, I did not well, I did learn the term recently from some friends. But I have never attended something called a darty. This is one of the few times where we have a phrase that I don't know what the hell it is, but all the young kids would. It's a daytime party. Yeah, she knew this. All the young kids know what a darty is. This first I've ever heard that in my lifetime. All right, So friends of ours, the French is there's son went to Virginia Tech and they loved the darty And I'm I'm telling you, man, a darty is made for parents weekend because your party in the afternoon and evening and then you just go on to bed. That's a frat party. Well it was. It was. It was two different ones. So she her sorority got with a fraternity and they had this party and it was They had a water slide. I mean they put they put sand out in the yard that made it look like a beach. I mean it had to have been truckload after truckloads. Did all that? Did you at my school? Yeah? No, I went to a military right now, you never went down a water We had darty's, but we had the best time, man, I'm telling you. It was so good. She is so happy where she is. That's all you can ask about for And so we just had a great, great time. I never had a darty at Liberty either. Yeah, there's probably not many darties at Liberty. Just they had a guy walking around. It looked like an American flag diaper that he was walking around in. That's all he had on and on his chest it was written, I suck at fantasy football. He was last. You guys should do that's something like that. No way, I'm lasting the last two years. That would be awful. If you lose in fantasy football, you gotta get a Cuban flag tattooed on. Oh all right, Yes, that was my weekend. I had an amazing weekend. Great it's amazing is a great word. Might you sound surprised, because yeah, I know, I'm I'm just working. No. I went Friday, I drove down to Clemson, got there at seven pm. The next day I went to a Zach Brian concert in Charlotte. I saw your posts about that. Hm. My nephew went, how great was that? Oh? Yes, they heard Dylan? It was literally top ten superior would again literally got chills. How packed was the like? Sixty thousand people there. It was like because it was at the Panthers Stadium and it was packed like everywhere. I love his music, but I just I've gotten old. Okay, I'll tell you so his personal life creeps into my ability to watch. What's he done wrong? I'm a he wasn't nice to his ex girlfriend abuser, really, but he's nice to his no girlfriend. He makes good music because of itself. I would say, though, top, I am not a person to pay for concerts. He's the only person I would pay to seat in person. I'm waiting only because I mean, I've seen some of that stuff play out. But it wasn't just his ex girlfriend. I mean yeah, literally climbed over a fence to. Try to Also, yes, he was in the military for a very like he's. You just get the feeling you're gonna wake up one day and he's gonna be the guy on the news for killing somebody. I will say, though, puts on a bomb concert and all sixty five people, we should do a mount rushmore of what concerts would you want to go to? Oh? Okay, it was like three hours long. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'll participate. It was like three hours long, was played like thirty songs. Who played ahead of them, this band called Camp. I just really liked him, but I don't really okay. And then someone he did a duet with Too's. There's a guy that I really like, and it happens to me. I don't know music. I'm not a I like music, but I just don't know it like other people. You are incredible. Like when I go down the road, I tell people, Dude, he's like a girl. He knows like every word of every song. I mean in a complimentary way, Like I don't know so many people that know words like you do. It doesn't matter what genre it is. You know what the words are. I can't hear the words. I make them up, even songs that I like. And it's funny because you like concerts and I'm not a big concert guy, like I don't. I've only been to two or three in my life. Okay, but you like them. I'm not a concert guy. I'm not. That was the first one I've been to since I was like seven. So Pari Smith like Pink. You know, you just when you it's like you want to go, you just want to be in that arena with seventy thousand other people, is like kind of a cool experience. Oh it was, and one of my best concerts. I've always hidden because I don't want people to realize that I went to that type of concert. But no, I went to and God doing this. I went to a Share concert. And it was her last. She was great. She was honestly, No, you caught me off guard. I thought I was waiting for a Boys to Men or something. Her whole thing was her costume change. She literally went through fifty four different costume change. Wow. And it's just when does she have time to do that? Dude? It's a The show was amazing. Well, Bri, I mean that's. Next time we go to Zach Bryan concert. You're coming, so. Aersmith will be on my I guess that's my Mount Rushmore next week. All right, Well we'll do air Mount Rushmore next week. That's conscious that you'd want to go to. But side note. I did him as he'd hit a tweaker in the road, like a bad. One, like you mean, like a city problem, like you're in the downtown area. Well, let's just say I was about to turn onto the exit. I get a call from David's brother Spencer that was stranded with four of his buddies on the side of the road. So I went and picked them up, took him to their hotel. And there's a tweaker in the road and she kept running back and forth in front of my car. And then there were two hobos frolicking in the field beside them, and then the tweaker was in the highway, literally running. Police didn't really do anything about it. Every day, Yeah, I know. So then I went home. I got home at four am, three am, and then drove back home the next day. I'm going back to my old lady ways this weekend. So what are you doing this weekend? While we're on that subject to work, dogs hitting, no like for Woody. Oh, there's events we have to have to go take footage of. And then well, where's where's Woody? While this is going on Disney World. And you're not going to the race because you're moving, there's packings. Yeah, I'm moving next weekend, so putting that out there. So that's what we're supposed to be doing this weekend is going to the Saturday night race in Pulaski. But they are calling for some rain possibly. So like if it rains to the cancel, there's a possibility. Yeah, I say, we just play it by ear. Yeah, I mean if it doesn't, I could just come over to your man cave and watch a race. Yeah. I hope it doesn't because we have really nice seats. I think Marty's out of town too this week. Where's she going now? Yeah? Exactly, she works, so she's she got an interior decorating job and now they got a high point furniture. Mar What a scam that is? You were going anyway? Now you get paid to go? Yeah? All right, moving on, moving on, This day in history, This day in history. In nineteen sixty seven, this big Burger made its debut. Huh, big Mac. It's sold for forty five cents and it is a big Mac. Do you know what we should Can you believe that our Mount Rushmore should be one time? I don't know if we have ever done it. Though. Foods that you wish they would bring back at fast food restaurants. That's a good one too. Yeah right, what went away? Like the pop popcorn chicken that McDonald's used to have. I ain't know that. I don't know. I mean I don't know what. Well, yeah, the McRib I can kind of think that that circles around and comes back. I missed the old we talked about this where the dolt, Yeah, where they had the separate that was nice. I don't know if anything goes away that I haven't. I mean the stuff that I have is always my favorite's been there for twenty years. Like do you remember the cinnamon bites used to have at McDonald's for breakfast? Okay, never mind, I'll just make mynd list. The I was gonna say, good, stay in history. Yeah, I'm just stay in history. But oh, you said forty five cents for the Big Mac sixty seven. That's crazy. I don't even know McDonald's was around in the sixties. What everyone to watch? Everyone to watch a good movie? Michael Keaton playing Ray Croc, really really good. What's called all? Right? Nineteen seventy okay, the year I was born, the first Earth Day. I mean, I suppose if you think about air quality and pollution in the Potomac, there are some things that we have done to clean up the earth, but this stuff going overboard with somehow thinking peppering my skyline with wind mills is supposed to be better for the environment. Yeah, you can go fly a kite. There's no way, it's all of it, All of it makes no I mean. Oh good, one fly ol kite is get a turbine? Right, Yeah, I agree with you one hundred percent. Like there are things we can do. Obviously we had pesticide issues in the seventies, you know, DDT or whatever it was. Obviously there's education. Yeah, but what we've done making up stuff like. I've got a video coming up a little later on on that. Yeah. Just when you see it, you won't believe it. Hey, let me ask you this. In your last ten years, have you ever heard a news story about acid rain? Of course not no, But the first ten years of my life it was We're going to die from acid rain. Yeah, did you see that? In nineteen forty was the first McDonald's oh wow, fifteen cent hamburger. Initially it was called McDonald's barbecue. Google the Ray Croc story with Michael Keaton. There's a movie.

We have all this stuff and it's just trying to figure out how to make money at it. It was It's really good and he does a really good. Job of it. That's awesome. Ye all right, I'm still watching as they drop the neighbors and friends. Yes, are you caught up. Yes, I'm still I think two behind. Yeah, I'm two behind because they drop one Friday, we were one behind and now on two behind. I just like the shotgun him and we've just been busy. Do you remember what was it called Breaking Bad? Yes? Top five? All right, this to me, that's where this is heading. Remember how Breaking Bad? Kind of yeah, headed down that road. I can kind of see that this is the way this seems to be heading. I've enjoyed it because, you know, with his stealing and then yeah, now it just seems to go down that hill, so it'll be interesting. I'm enjoying it. I did a documentary on the Five Families. I don't know why. I've probably seen one hundred documentaries on the Mob, but it never gets old. They suck me in. I like it. They get me every time. Yeah. So I watched the documentary on the Five Families and it was it was interesting. It always is interesting. You know how you got this thing that you said, like what grabs you on TikTok? Yes, I just friended someone or followed someone that he gives movie reviews, and dude, I'm hooked on every one of them. He only gives three movies. But the best things to see on Netflix, you. Know what I mean? Yeah, And like I've done all the scrolling, and I was thinking, you know, we do our own little drama thing that we do, but we never promote that part on the clips. But this dude has seventy thousand followers now because he just gives his opinion on three movies at a time. It's really cool. Yeah, I love I don't know how again, I don't know what how that comes across my algorithm or does that? But I get them and I find them interesting. What was this one? Which one? What was the thing about the mob? What was the storyline? Basically documentarying how it all started, and I did learn a lot, Like I've known a lot about the mob, but it takes you back to Sicily and how it got started in Sicily, Like it wasn't just a group of people that got together and started to do the mob. Apparently, Sicily is a part of Italy that was sort of shunned and so due to being shunned, they sort of turned into mafia activities to be able to survive, and then that just grew in business, and then they came over to escape that and brought it over to America, which was interesting. Yeah, I mean all the old godfathers and stuff. They pay homage to those guys, re member sopranos. There was a lot of storylines about old country. Yes, So anyway, it was interesting. So I didn't know. I don't think I ever knew that one of the mob bosses that was part of Lacostrenosa. I think that's how you say it. I never knew that one of them had turned and was feeding the federal government. I thought that happens all the time. Not a boss, like an underling. Yeah, but he was the first ever known boss that was feeding. So he was he had been convicted and was going to be facing prison and was facing prison, but they somehow got word to the judge and they met behind closed doors because you can't meet to come up with a deal, it would get out there. So they literally worked this all behind closed doors, and he was steadily feeding information to the federal government. The boss of a family. It's crazy, crazy crazy. So uh, anyway, it was interesting to say the least. I like stuff like that. And then I started the Portland trail Blazers documentary. Today, what's kind of weird? Why would they do a documentary on the Trailblazers of all the teams. If you remember, and it's that's what sucked me in. So obviously it's a I didn't realize it was such a small market team. It's the only professional team in Portland. And then so they had had some success. With Clyde Drexler and they made it to the finals, but they never won a championship. And so they were they were going to be rebuilding. And the guy that owns Microsoft, he bought the Trailblazers, the the Seahawks guy Okay, and so he was gonna usher in a new era and they haul something, drafted Rashid Wallace, and with Rashid they built Stotomyre and then with Stodamyre was Phonsie Wells and it was sort of this bad boy team. And I didn't realize, I'm just now I had I remember Rashid being an issue, but I didn't realize that they were constantly in trouble, Like there was an announcer that was saying with every within every they never went more than seventeen days without some sort of offense. Either's one was arrested or busted for drugs, or and I was like, good lord, and so I've just I'm in. I'm at that point where they're starting to But I. Said, don't understand. I mean, there's the Pacers, you know what I mean, why would you pick that as the documentary to hit? Is it Netflix? It is? That's just kind of out of me that that would be the one that makes it on there. And it's just sort of the bad boy image and all the stuff that went along with it. Yeah, and they still didn't win a championship. I like the one I remember, remember the Malice in the Palace. That was a good documentary. So where I'm at is when Pipping I forgot Pippin went to trail Blaze. I don't remember that at all. Yeah, so interesting. Interesting. I love a documentary. Yeah you got anything? Mmm? Drama wise, I was just doing Friends and Neighbors and I can't recall if I've seen anything else. It was decent. So we've just been so busy, you know. I did the whole Uka thing and all that, so I just really haven't had a chance. And oh with my back, I threw my back out really bad. Monday, of all days, is when I was supposed to have my acupuncture appointment see doctor Lee by the way, So I missed her and I extended it a week and I had been going monthly. I guess just missing it, but man, my back is jacked. So the last two nights I've literally just gotten home and just laid down with a muscard life or and just hope I can get the pained go away. It's doing okay, but I sucked it up for this show. Good for you. All right, Moving on lame media headliners thumb all right, ABC News, Iran says it has seized two vessel vessels on the streets of Hamose hermose. Uh So I really haven't read anything more on that. Yeah, I assume that happened. I don't know. Yeah, I would say if I had any criticism at all, is we don't seem to get press releases like there's no update, this is what happened today? Or do we and I just don't hear them. Well, I'm agreeing, because here's what's weird, and this is the reason I'm read it. And if you read it, it says Iran says it seized. Yeah, but yet literally and I'm not joking. You can go on Fox. You can go on ABC, you can go on any of them. There's a link that says click on live straits of Hormuse, you know, information, like it's giving you document of what's actually. Going on there. Yeah. Well, I mean, shouldn't you know whether or not a ship has been seized? And that's kind of interesting? Why do you say? Iran says? Yeah, and who's your source to give you news? Checked? But I'd say, if I say that there's any criticism, is there's no? Obviously we have a press secretary that does something every day, but it seems like there should be a military guy that comes and tells you what happened today, or nothing happened today, or Iran sees two of our ships and we will be retaliatingeah something. That's what I'm saying. It's weird it all. It made me think today when I was at the office, when I read this headline, I went, wait a minute, is uh Russian and Ukraine still going at it? Because when is the last time you've ever heard a report of them? Too? Yeah? I know exactly. That's a good point. Are they I don't know? Yeah, And here's something really weird to me. We're okay, we've started a embargo, right, or we're not letting any ships come out of Okay, So all that oil had to be going somewhere, and now that oil is not going anywhere. And I'm just assuming the Chinese and the Russians were the ones getting that oil. I guess now, I know that Donald Trump says, Hey, we got beautiful oil in Texas and Louisiana. Come bring your ships. Are we going to fill the Chinese ships in the Russian ships if they say come, do we need the oil? Somebody's going to need the oil? Sure? And how long does the embargo last? I'm not saying the right word, whatever the word is where we've blocked the waters in the blockade. Okay, I even used it in the damn sentence. So, but shouldn't China shouldn't chinn to retaliate? Shouldn't they invade Taiwan? That's what I think. Honestly, I don't know. I just I do trust that he has a plane. I do too. I mean, I don't. But at the same time, I'm going, where are all the other countries going, Hey, yo, let's get this thing fixed out? Yeah? Fixed? And honestly, I've heard Trump say that hey, where are these countries you should be wanting to help. It's almost like they're rooting for his demise. Yeah, and that they hope that the prices go up, you know what I mean. It's like, where is the news is just so weird right now. I don't understand that Pakistan. I would say, of all people are the ones trying to hate. Let's talk, Let's get this thing done. But I do know it doesn't seem like there's any missiles being launched to anybody anymore. So they either run out of them or they don't have anybody to fire them, exactly right. I'm assuming we're winning, but I don't know. I just would wish we had a spokesperson. NBC News Intelligence agency assessment says Iran still has a significant military. I'm sure boots on the ground they do. I mean, other than us killing the leaders, we haven't really gone in hand to hand combat yet. No. I tell you what, it would be very very interesting to me somehow, some way, and I don't know how they know this, but you know, the the nuclear material that we want, yes, apparently you can trace back where it came from. Oh, so that's what we're finding out Yeah. Do they not want to hand us there the nuclear material because somebody doesn't want us to know that they got it. Oh, I'm sure that you know what I mean. Yeah, all right, Yes, News CBS Virginia voters approve new congressional map favoring Democrats. Oh and we'll talk a little bit more about that and what's happening. Yeah, all right, moving on to small business shout out yes. All right, So this was supposed to say cut one. It's just like a TikTok shoutout. Yes. So this is our TikTok shout outs to just stuff that comes on my algorithm. So this gentleman, you may know him or have seen him. I have him under cookout Hunters or whatever, but he comes up on my algorithms for cooking. Yeah, and dude, I do cook a lot of or try to cook some of the stuff that he says. That's like the forty year old guy. I cook everything, a lot of things entertaining. Yeah, and so this is Bruce Mitchell Cut one biscuits birthday. We're going to do. It's kind of warm. We do make these biskey. We're gonna just drop this in here, put the lid back on. You see it's moving around, this melting, it's melting from this flour. I think I'm gonna start cooking outside because I make a battle. Of munch of his mess as he does with no shirt on. All right, just two and a half and two heavy whipping cream, y'all. He's the woman that taught me how to make butter. We're not gonna watch the whole video. I just this is Bruce Mitchell, so it's entertaining. Check him out on face? How many followers need to cool? Just? Can you any changing can click over to see how many followers he has? Or is this just the clip? We can't do it? Okay? Well question? Yeah? It beat something to just check out Bruce Mitchell. But I have enjoyed Well you sent me the one that he did. I thought you were going to show the crawl Dad's when you sent me. Oh, I do like that one. Did you say how nasty those things were? That he bowled him twice or a dank? I guess rinsed him twice. So there's two opinions when it comes to that. Obviously you should absolutely wash. Don't ever eat crawfish straight from the stream. I don't recommend it because it is nasty water. I rinsed mine four or five times before it finally became clear water. But there's also the other which is you put salt in your water and that will purge your crawfish, meaning they poop and they get all of that out of their system. But there's some of them say don't purge because they taste different. You were not convincing me. So when you said you were pulling tails, are you also deveining? I do. I learned how to devein from him. You crack the bottom of the tail and you can pull it straight up. It's amazing. So yeah, wow, you don't like I'm not a peel and eat shrimp fan. If there's a vein in there, Yeah, I like the deveined. Sure, peeling eat. I can devein. I've learned. I can't do what Logan does. Logan is a twist, turn sucks, suck it just you don't. You suck all the juices out, And I can't both. Yeah, I can't do it. I can't. I gag thinking about it right now. Speaking of that, you sent the damn video clip and his family comes walking out to eat those crawdads. And the woman keeps slurping at the end of the show. It's like I could have done without that. Yeah. So Bruce has nine hundred and fifty seven thousand followers. Wow. So yep, that's pretty cool. All right, good for him. Moving on to sports. It's time for sports, all right. Yeah, this is I mentioned something the other day. This is not a dead period for sports, which is crazy. Yeah, because you literally have two playoffs going on right now. But it just seems a little down, doesn't it. Yeah, Oh, the NBA, I have what are you laughing at? What do you texted me and said, did Brian just say twist twist sucks? Sucking? I didn't even pick up on that. That's fantastic, my bad. Woods. The NBA started playoffs. Yeah, and I will say I have enjoyed the Denver Nuggets in the Minnesota timberwol Oh. That's it. That would be one to watch, except it's up so late. It's usually a late one. Yeah. I don't think I've watched any of the other games. I don't even know what the other ones are. The Woods and Nuggets are tied, yes they're Hawks and Hawks and Knicks are tied one to one. And the Calves are up to nothing on the Raptors. And last night the Sixers went tied one to one the Celtics. Crazy. The Blazers are one to one with the Spurs. That's interesting. Got hurt last Oh wow, it's the ground. Yeah. And then the Lakers are up two oh on the Rockets. I would have put money on the Rockets last night to go one to one. I just don't see how they win. Is the Lakers up two? Oh? Yeah? The Rockets weren't good. Neither is Detroit if you ask me, huh, I don't It'll be interesting when I look at it. To me, Oklahoma City looks unbeatable. I would have said Boston. Well, Houston was the only one game behind the Lakers. They were affording that that's the four or five matchup. But Houston's when you watch them, there's nothing there. Huh. They got Kevin Durant, Yeah, he was injured though. Oh did played last night? Yeah? He got cleared to play yesterday. Well, they're down to that's in LA. They might be able to come back and that hopefully. It'll be interesting. So of the Nationals moving on off of basketball and on to baseball, I have kind of followed. Now that I have the. What's it called MLB network, Okay, the I have. Started following baseball a little more closely, and I have been very happy that the Gnats and the Orioles seem to be just middle of the road. Okay, and I'll take that. You're happy with that, You're not, well, I mean, the winner. When's the last time you're Orioles nineteen eighty three? Right, so you know what I'm saying. I'm I'm not gonna be okay with being twelve and thirty nine. But I'm what I'm saying is both teams, the Nats and the Orioles, seem to be on the younger side. Okay, if they could just keep the talent. They really just need the pitching right now. They've got you a good young talent. The Nats are eleven thirteen and the Orioles are twelve and thirteen. I think I think I saw something where the Mets. Yeah, hat in one since that rocket took off. Yeah, the Mets are seven and sixteen. They've lost twelve in a row, like the damn they went around the moon and back and the Mets still have won. Yeah, the Mets, I think Trent have the worst record in baseball. They do. Yeah, they're seven to sixteen. That's crazy. I think they started out seven and zero or seven and one. It's weird. Yeah. So anyway, Uh, hockey, I've watched two seconds of that. Hurricanes look to be You're doing fairly well, I think, but I don't. I don't really. I don't know what matchup to watch. I think I kind of get into it, like as the Stanley Cup finals get closer and close. That all right, Moving on to F one. It has been so long since they've had an F one race. When do they race again next weekend? Okay, so we got to go another weekend without them. Yep, they're in Miami. Okay. But I said something to you, and I agree with you. I think they're losing their momentum that they built. Yeah, of course one, you're right switching to Apple TV. The telecast is horrible, and now they haven't raced in a month and the whatever, and it's just plus you keep hearing the rumors that were stapping may honestly leave F one at the end of the year. Who are stars gonna be? Well, certainly the sport's bigger than the driver, but they did have a lot of momentum and they kind of just pulled the rug out from under themselves. Yeah, by I guess taking Apple money. I don't know. You know, I watched one that Amus texted you and Carolina Kevin this weekend Sunday, I was I came home early from UVA and I just wanted to chill and watch racing. Yep. So I'm sitting there waiting for the NASCAR race to start and an E one race came on. God, so you got F one and then have E one. So I remember they I think they skipped a couple of years without having these races anymore because it was so expensive to run and there was nobody there at them. I was kind of pleasantly surprised that the crowd was as good as it was. But dude, to watch an E one race. We talked about this with Carolina Kevin one time. If they ever went to electric cars, yeah, it would just put the death nail because it is the oddest sound. Dude, It's awful. It is. It's the whiniest noise and. It's funny you say that because I watched Junior this weekend. I've been watching a lot of him lately. He's had some phenomenal interviews and I'm learning more about the sport that I didn't know. He interviewed BJ McCloud, right, he's that guy that you kind of see riding around at the back accountally. I tried to get it an LA sponsorship on his hood. Dude, that guy's incredible that when I watched his interview, I learned just how awful NASCAR has become. And I mean that as he had won national championships, he had dominated local tracks all that, and he never got a phone call. He literally started racing with his own money. He bought that charter or whatever with his own money, and he basically told Junior, look, if I made it into the top twenty five, it was gonna lost me so much money. It wasn't worth being in the top twenty five. I'm better off just selling my charter and doing a one off here and there. Then I would be trying to compete, because that's how much money is in those top tier teams. I can't even if I won, I'm going to be losing. And as a business owner, I can't. I mean I just could not. You know, interesting and it's just I don't even know what he looks like. Junior asked him if he thought his which you can tell you it was scared. Ask he's sort of a buff kind of guy, but he said, did your look? Do you think your look sort of scared off teams from He's a hat backwards skull, you know, And he does not, And he said, dude, I'll wear a corporate shirt. You know, I got no problem. But I'm also gonna be he Junior said, you know, he was more like Jimmy Spencer's in that day of a racer and not to check that out, but I learned a lot about the sport. And Junior mentioned, not in that interview, but on one of the other videos freaking Nascar. God, dude, it's like, we get this close to it finally going back and then they do something stupid. Now Junior would know because he owns probably the biggest uh it's it called now O'Reilly Parts. Team NASCAR is discussing with the manufacturers to switch the O'Reilly series to a crossover series. That means that will they will be racing crossovers. I don't know what a crossover is. That's not gonna be your suv, and it's not gonna be your car. It's that intermediate crossovers. Like I said, Dan, like h and Junior said, listen, I don't understand why you would even be discussing it. And if it's the manufacturers, then we gotta, you know, we gotta do something because. I heard something about Chevrolet doesn't even make a car now, like the only thing they make is trucks and SUVs. You know that they don't. Actually make the series. They make a Camaro. Yeah, yeah, I think' supposed to. Camaro is not supposed to be built again until next year, Like they'll start doing them next year. But yeah, so that's weird how. The market has always said that the Bush Grand National Series was manufactured driven that is where they did their testing in that series, you know, in the Cup Series was supposed to help sell cars, but they're they used the Bush Grand National Series is they're testing waters. And he says that they've slowly deteriorated their support for that series, and so when NASCAR talks about wanting to do a crossover, he's just like, dude, I'm out if that happens. Like that, I saw a clip and it said and Gen seven. Is that the name of the cars that they use a NASCAR? I think so? Okay, it was one of those cars versus an o' rally car and it was night and day. Who was going faster? And I meant to look at it longer, like which one has going faster? And I thought, I need to start paying attention to the times the intervals. Is it go around tracks? Good point, because they only show you a little bit of the speed, and I see some of the speed on the what they show, but I never see and what really really is cool. I started this whole thing by saying I watched the E one race, the electric one. Okay, if you could just close your eyes and get the picture the sound of a golf cart, Oh my god, that is what it sounds like. It literally sounds like golf carts racing each other going around the track. And then they would show the speed. But they had this thing where it was that recovery rate or whatever, like you you can't use so much energy? Oh yeah, yeah, and you have to, but it's it's completely there's no fuel in the cars. It was completely a battery pack and there are pit times were like thirty five seconds waiting for it to reach charge. Yeah, and I thought that's pretty good actually if you think about it. So, yeah, you when you go around turn, so it would be the equivalent to not using gas when you're off the gas pedal. So when you're off the gas pedal, you're you're conserving electricity. Yeah, and then when you hit the gas it's it's literally sucking it out. Of the back. They had this thing where it was like they push a button and for fifteen or no, for five minutes, you can go through this like top speed or something. So the strategy is we're going to go faster with it. I don't know. It was not It wasn't fun to watch. It was just I kind of watch it just to see how lame can this be. I remember somebody asking Junior what he thought about that. He said they would he would never watch it, and he said his issue would be the sound, obviously, And somebody said, well, can't they just pipe in music or sound? They've tried to screw that. Yeah, there's no reason to do electric Can we not build frigging combustible engines and race? Like? Why why do we have to stop? I hate it? I hate that we get so close with NASCAR of being because even so Junior shared that the O'Reilly Series, their attendance is up, their viewership is up. You know, they're they're selling way more now that the CW they're advertising dollars. Everything has gone up. And like I said, he would know he's in the business, and he's like, I don't. It's like we have all the momentum. The fans are now starting to come back, and we're now we're going to start talking about a cross Yeah, why would you even put that out there? That's weird. NASCAR. Speaking of NASCAR, Yeah, they were at the Whopping Kansas this weekend. Oh gosh, I just wanted to just throw my whatever I had near me at the TV at the end of that thing. Go ahead, Okay, So I'm curious, is our Toyota's just so that? Are they that far ahead? Seems like it. And the reason I say that is I saw the podcast where Denny Hamlin said he told Michael Jordan, unless something strange happens, I'm a guaranteed win this weekend. Well, you and I have watched racing our whole life. I've never heard a driver say, even when they know they have the fastest car. I've never heard them say who said that? Denny Amler? Okay, yeah, and he was right by the way. Yeah, because unless that happened. Hey, so the guy that so if for those that didn't watch race, And the reason I was so upset is I had I picked any ham one and I had money on him, so I was gonna win sixty bucks for him coming across the line. And he's literally within the start finish line of one lap to go, and I can't remember if there's caution happens in that lap? Is this still a caution? No? If it's a lap all right, So if it's one lap to go, if you've taken the caution flag, yeah, I mean the white flag. Yeah, and a caution does happen, the race is over, okay, But if it happens before, so. He's literally three hundred yards from the flag, ye, and this car goes spinning around. Is that the guy that does the broadcasting on NBC. That's not Codywear? Uh, Cody Wear, But I didn't know he does broadcasting any the one. That does the Amazon coverage that he's the bearded guy that's really good looking. No, you're thinking of oh, shoot, damn, why did you do that? Okay, yeah, I'm not thinking right now. Joy, Uh yeah, I could be thinking of Cody yeah, Joy, Cory jo h Yeah yeah okay, so I thought it was codywear Anyway, the guy spins, He's literally in last place of the race and somehow he spends and that causes a caution. Okay. Denny Hamlin was going to win the race and I was gonna win money. Yeah, and I just have used I'm so used to this. I was like, I wasn't even that upset, but it was just like, come on, well, then they do have the green white checker, Chris Bell goes spinning and they don't throw anything. I just don't understand it. So it's funny because you know, Denny Hamlin has his show, but also part of the programming at Junior whatever it's called. The podcast Dirty More Yes, Dirty More Media is. The spotters and Tommy Baldwin. Do you remember Tommy Baldwin? Yes, Okay, he was the crew chief on that car. That's fun So when Denny Hamlin made the comment after the race about you know, it's just stupid that he's out there on tires that long. Of course, it's gonna blow. Well, Tommy had to answer to that on the podcast and he's like, yeah, I can't apologize enough. I made a call to try to get, you know, to stay out longer on those tires. It was the wrong call. Yes, I'm sorry. I don't know what to do. I mean, I swear the dude was like I I think he was down three laps longer than anybody else. What was it gonna hurt? Man, I'm telling you something. It was some shenanigans or something. In my opinion, they're why in the world would you wreck coming around the last turn. I don't know how, and I'm still trying to figure it out. That's why I said it's Toyota that much better than everybody, because, dude, we've never seen a race where Kyle Larson is that far ahead and somehow the Toyota just blows right by him. Especially whatever it is that that Tyler Reddick is doing at the end of races. Yeah, I mean he won Atlanta with no fender. Correct, He's got something that happens in that last they do with the last pit stop that he throws out onto everybody else. Whatever they're doing it, we're okay with it until they get caught. Sure, that's the way it was in old schools. Now, No, I agree. And he was so far back, but he tracked Kyle Larson down like it was nothing. I thought Kyle won the race. I'm like, Wow, he's gonna be pissed. And then it's like, where the hell's reddick coming from? Yeah? I mean it was. It was a It was a boring race, but it was interesting last that green white checker to have three or four cars within. Chase Briscoe is the one with four tires, and it was interesting to see if he was going to be able to move forward. You can take Kansas and throw it in the garbage with the rest of them. I can't stand that track. And that's another track that looks like what you could do what Atlanta did. Yeah, you know what I mean, just literally cookie cutter Charlotte. Is it not make it? Make it a super speedway big enough that you could rebank it like Atlanta did. I don't know, but we'll see anyway. That is. Uh, NASCAR is at our favorite one of our favorite tracks this weekend. Oh yeah, relive it. Talladega, Talladega. I can't wait that is one that I literally am on pins and needles. I can't wait to watch the truck race. Yeah, I can't wait to watch. Well, dude, if we if it is raining down at Pooh Pooh Lasky, we come down and watch Talladega. Yeah, Logan and I would just talk about that today. That's where we were a couple of years ago. And uh it's four four years ago. I guess it's been a long Yeah. Yeah, I just got the I got the memory Facebook memory and it was me, you and my dad getting ready to get on the bus. Oh wow on your in your RV. That's crazy. But it's a phenomenal race and you don't that's the one thing about this race. You don't know who's gonna win. No, like there is no If there's a favorite, you're gonna wrack. Yeah. I mean that's one where Ricky Stenhouse could easily win. Yeah, So, can't need to have a picks with Carolina Kevin later. On unless you're your brother and you just picked the top three to win. Are you interested in the NFL draft tomorrow? I do want to see where the kid from Indiana goes. I hope he goes number one, right, Yeah, and that's for the Raiders. Yeah, I hope that's the landing spot. I saw an interview with him today. Cool as hell. He's not going to the draft, even though he's projected to be the number one pick. And he just said, I want to be with my mom and it's it's tough on her to have to go all the way out to Pittsburgh. And then he's my favorite interview dude. He's a great interview. But I just worry about him going to Vegas. Yeah, you know what I mean. Them prostitutes change them. You never know. Women they read books while they're supposed to be working. Well, no, I was cooking. I was cooking. I was making post free guys, cooking. I was making post free guys here. All right, moving on to what's happening. It's time for news. You have to max cut off perfectly there. Mm hmmm. I'm trying to stay on schedule, all right. Obviously, Virginia has turned into Little Cali. Yep. I mean it is so sad where we've gone. The Dems win again, yep? Are we officially doomed? Like can we come back from this? I mean, I got some stats for you here. Let me go cause I find them here. Unlike liberals. It's not the end of the world. No, But what bothers me is how bad has our messaging been that you can literally run ads and say, hey, we're going to rig this election to keep Donald Trump from doing his agenda, and we just need you to go along with it. And people went along with it. Yeah, so obviously the people that voted for it, the yes have bought that. They are trying to keep the FEDS from losing Congress because Texas did what they did. And what's funny is when I go back and look at it, I cannot find that Texas was allowed and how many delegates they have. Have you seen anybody give a tallly of what the new delegate numbers are? I can't find it. And it's like what I do find is courts have blocked Texas. Right, I can't find that Texas now has twelve seats in Virginia just picked up eleven. Right, the election hasn't happened yet, I get it. But the numbers, like we were told we're going to go from six to five to now ten to one. So that's a pickup of four, right, But we don't know that that's going to happen. We don't know that that's going to happen. So when you asked, is this are we dead? Here's the way I looked at it. We gave a galliant fight to for know right, and we tried the best that we could to win to get no. But one thing I hearken is when you look at the red green map that they gave. The red green map was all the counties. A lot of those areas that they were showing that were blue were red. So a lot of our guys voted in that category. When it was only three percent difference between the two. That means you only have to win one point five percent of those people that voted. So I went back and looks so I'm just trying to give some numbers here, and you know, I'm a numbers guy. I love numbers. So do you know how many people voted no yesterday? It was one point four eight six. So let's just round one point five, okay, So let me go back to this other tab. In the Virginia gubernatorial race, we had one point four to five vote for win. Some seiers. We literally the same number of people went to vote on our side. So it wasn't. We didn't get the word out. We just had the same number of people voting. It literally is it? And then Abigail Spamberger had one point nine so the yes vote, you know, they did beat us. But we're within a margin that if we had the right candidate campaign, whatever, we only have to flip over a one and a half percent. That's right. Now, what's funny. I I try to educate the younger generation because I do get questions from them about the electoral college that they even though they may be Republican, there's a younger generation that thinks that the electoral college is outdated, because that's what that's the messaging, right, And so I explained to them, just like I did today, this is what happens. If you get rid of electoral colleges. You literally have three areas of Virginia that control the whole state. Well, that's what happens to America. You would literally be controlled by LA in New York. Yeah, that's it, that's all they need. Yes, I saw something. If you took the city of LA the number of people that are in Los Angeles, and you took all those people out of LA, but you put them in the Let's say there's fifty thousand people in a county near LA. So if you started in LA and you put those people the same number of people in those counties, you would make it all the way to North Dakota before you ran out of people. That's how many people were in LA. So that's what would happen. You would just campaign in LA, which is going to happen in Virginia. Now. So the way I looked at it, yes last night, I was disappointed. The way I looked at it this morning, get good candidates and these places where we're going to be ten to one, let's not make it ten to one. Let's still win six to five. You still got to win. But see, this is what I loved about the electoral college. That made sense. If you had a bigger population, you actually had more delegate, so it did matter, and so it actually works to your favor. But here's the thing. When you lose your population because you're running your city in the ground and they're moving to Texas, you're going to pick up delegates there. So the college is actually working properly. That's what the Democrats found out, and that's the reason immigration became an issue. They wanted to try to drive up the numbers because the census erroneously counted illegal aliens correct, which nobody even brings that part up, right. I just I don't know where we're going wrong with messaging. How do we fix it? Somehow? We keep letting them, if you want to call it cheating, We let them cheat. We let them cheat on the census. We let them cheat on that, and then they're just going to lie to us about what the Virginia vote was. The Virginia vote was not for Virginia. The Virginia vote was a federal vote. We're just trying to make sure that the Democrats continue running the federal government. That's what it's about. And fraud, Yes, is mailing balloting? Is that fraud? Of course it's fraud, right. I mean, how are they winning in Virginia when we keep showing up with the same number of people and they show up with five hundred thousand less and the gubernatorial vote and still win. Is there? And I think you pointed this out before the show started. It's interesting to me the ones that hold their votes, reporting of their votes, Yes, do you report? Do you report just enough to win? Right now? There should be a better system than this. Of course it should be. And I don't. I just. I wish you could just win on fair Like I wish we could get back to a day in this country where if you believed an abortion and I believed that we shouldn't, that we should be able to have an argument and be able to come up with a solution. Right. It just seems to me, like, like the argument right now is that Donald Trump is a threat to democracy while you're literally voting to rig an election. So the Save Act we can't pass because of the filibuster. I agree, we don't drop the filibuster. You don't think the Dems who just did what they did in Virginia don't play the hardest game of the world. But we don't. No, that's right, we don't. We just don't. Indiana has not changed there. They Indiana could literally equal what we just did in Virginia. They can equal it in Indiana. But the Republicans decided not to redistrict, you know what I mean. So it's just the game. So now we hope that Florida will go redistrict. So I don't and I think about this. There was a time in my life where Florida was blue, there was a time in my life where West Virginia was darkly blue. Yes, now they're both red. We can win too. It just takes campaigning. It takes Northern Virginia to lose a lot of federal employees, right, and Trump's working on that, so long game. I'm not totally disappointed. When you're John McGuire and you're my candidate, that just means you probably got to go to Charlestville on campaign more. Now. Yeah, and that's what I said. I looked at the district and I'm like, look, Ben Klein is a very popular candidate. I mean, I didn't pull it, but I'm pretty sure he won very handily. Yes, he's going to have to work harder now, but I think he can still win his district. Yeah. I don't know if John can, but I hope he can. And I do think the Kagan lady could win. And so it may not be as bad as you think. If it's not ten to one, let's hope it's seven to four, right or yeah, seven four, yeah, something like that. So we shall see. Yes, Now, I did read an interesting article and I said, man, if Donald Trump was to do because Let's just get one thing straight. When you say our side, Donald Trump is carved out of that because he absolutely will do it. He'll do whatever it takes to wait. Yeah, one hundred percent. So there was an article on Fox News that says there is a provision that allows the President of the United States to annex the District of Columbia out past Arlington, and that he and his staff have considered this option if Virginia chose to vote yes. Yeah, I just do you know what how great it would be is if if he did that and you heard people scream this is ricky. Yeah, literally just did it right right under the guise of trying to stop the MAGA correct steal the MAGA steel. It was like, funny, when did we create this in Virginia. We didn't. You just saw what you feared was going to happen in Texas. Which, by the way, you said started in Texas, but it actually started in New. York, right, Yes, New Jersey, California, Illinois. Yeah, exactly, Like it's been going on for a long time and you just are trying to stack the deck for yourself. And did she campaign on anything like that, right, She's absolutely lied. It never happened. Yep, she's a queen. Yep. All right, If even if we lose everything, if Donald Trump could do one thing to make me happy before he gets out off, if he could legitimately get rid of the deaf to diesel. I don't think people realize the cost of your groceries and everything is because of that. Yeah. You people just say, oh, it's diesel trucks. Listen, there was a time when diesel was less than gas. That's why the cost of moving things went up. Is because you taxed diesel. But then you went and put this stupid death on it. But I don't think people realize what that is. Yeah, I've got a video that will This is a mechanic in Utah. So not exactly conservative area Utah. Well I guess it would be. Yeah. So this is Dave. I love his videos. So what's interesting about this guy? He owns a garage, right like Dave water Lick. Right, this is Dave's auto. If you're a mechanic for Dave, which he has a lot, I forget how many. None of his mechanics make under one hundred thousand a year. I love his tiktoks are great. So this is Dave talking about the death issue. Go hitcut two. No problem, big problem. This is not good death fluid. You know, this stuff is so corrosive. And I'm sure that the government. Was thinking when they decided let's put this super corrosive liquid. In vehicles to help clean up the exhaust. That's gotta be a great idea. This is a sprinter and I'm telling you it's in here for VPF codes, and I'm sure it's the injection pump in the DPF. But every time I look at this kind of stuff, I'm thinking, get out and vote man, because America is less than five percent of the world population and we're taking the burden to kind of clean up the whole planet, and I just don't see it being in our best interest. I wish somebody would give me a study on what the exhaust would be if there was no death, like as diesel cleaner, is it cleaner burning already? Are we just adding it because somebody's marketing death? Dude, if you knew how destructive it was, Yeah, the costs, like right now, a diesel truck that is I would say ninety of the repairs are because of it. The whole system itself is a cost to the vehicle, so if. I got it right. So, in the terms of wastewater engineering, when you have particles that are in the water, you have this thing called a floculent. It's like a swimming pool. If you throw this floculan out there in the water, it settles. So it grabs the particles that are in the pool, for example, and takes them to the bottom of the of the bottom. That's a floculant. So I think death works the same way. It's supposed to take the exhaust that would have come out without anything, and it rides it so that it doesn't come out of the exhaust. So yes, but every so often it has to do what's called a region, which it literally burns it. And so here's what's crazy. If you are parked when the region happens, Like, let's just this has happened, because there's videos where a truck has been parked near a building. It will and can catch a building on fire. That's how hot it gets. Huh, it'll catch grass on fire. It's because it's extremely hot because it's burning off that it has to reagin every so often or else it would just clog up everything. Yeah, like a sub. Okay, so when it's regining, is it not releasing part of it? I don't know. That's just it's interesting to me. And you know, there was a time when I was growing up where you saw the diesel trucks the black smoke roll out of it. In fact, and you see that very rarely. But I don't know if that's because of deaf or is that because other technologies have gotten better or the fuel itself has gotten better. I'm sure there are things you have. You do know an engine that you took the system off, took the deaf system off? Oh yeah, okay, So does it have a different exhaust? Is it more smoky when it comes out of it? No, you still can put an exhaust on it, and you will not see the black smoke. It does have a button where you can bypass, and yes, you see the black smoke. So yeah, and that's what you see. The young kids they hit that button and without black smoke. Otherwise, yeah, it's an exhaust and you don't see the black smoke. That's what I'm asking. So if you took the deaf off without the kids and the bypass and all that, so if you just took the deaf off of your U Let's say you're in every day, you're going to John Deere to work, and you had a diesel truck. If you had the deaf system taken off, is there still is there black smoke that comes out? Okay, that's what I'm asking now, Yeah, all right, now you literally that's what I'm saying. You literally have to have a. Button to make it smoke. Okay, Yeah, gotcha. Anyway, I just thought that was interesting because he's a professional, he's the mechanic. Yeah, and he's showing you how corrosive and destructive that death actually is. Yeah, but nobody tells you that. And just if Trump would get rid of it you're talking about go. To Joe Rogan. All right, good point. I'll tell I'll give you in a good example. The average engine diesel engine before deaf. Now when I'm saying, I'm talking about your transfer trucks, the people that are delivering your items. Okay, the average was nine hundred thousand miles. I would say with a deaf system on, you're probably back into the two to three hundred thousand. Wow, that's what you've done to the diesel engine. You've choked it, and so it's just it's sad. Yep. So now you that's why the cost of your food has gone. Up, another unintended consequence. So just Donald, please get rid of it. Yeah, now you know what. I want them to get rid of the auto stop that too. That button just kills me. Although I think that has already happened. That was past to be able to do. They allowed manufacturers to take that off. Well, I wish they'd let you maybe retro fit mine, you know, all. Right, dims lose another congress person today, the female who's facing I read today, possibly one hundred years in prison. It's come on, do they ever get prison time? Of course, not other than George Santos was the last congress person you've seen go to jail that's not a Republican. Well, she is a. She is out of Congress now. So she did resign. I saw she had to resign. But she stole five million dollars from hurricane evacuation or hurricane funds, federal funds. I'd like to know how she got away with that for so long. But also when George Santos went to jail, he went it seemed like really really fast like you heard the news in a year and a half, he's in jail. Do you remember there was a senator in New Jersey that had gold bars? Is he not a senator anymore? Did he resign or is he still a senator? He did he resign? Well, how come he's not in jail? Was he the guy? I'm pretty sure. Senator? He was the guy? If I'm not was he the guy replaced by Jackie Ryl, the governor now of New Jersey? Oh, okay, I'm wrong. Former US Senator Bob Menendez began serving a eleven year prison sentence on June twenty fifth. Yeah, for bribery. How did I not know that? I'm pretty sure he was the guy that was replaced by Jackie Chryl, and then she became the governor of Jersey. And then just recently they had a special election and they literally read the headline that Republicans lose when it was never a it was never a Republican seat. Yeah, yeah, I mean it's been yeah right, what are we doing here? Yeah? Way? But also another Democrat is leaving or left because he died today, Delegate or a Congressman. Scott died at the age of eighty. So it's two dim seats this week that are gone. Do we know him No, I wouldn't know him either, never heard of him. So all right, moving on yep, post of the week by an idiot. Okay, Uh, Dems win because we are preserving democracy. That's what they say. That is what they cry constantly. Meanwhile, literally while they're doing it, they're destroying democracy. Yeah, like it baffles me. And listen, it ain't just dims. There are rhinos here in Bedford that hate Donald Trump so much that they vote yes. And their reasoning for it is because he's a danger to democracy. Yeah, while you're voting for Jerrymander, he's the danger to democracy exactly. The King. Yeah, you, the King allows you to Jerrymander. It's crazy to me, My dumbass one says, I don't mind having to pay taxes when the poor can't. What upsets me is having to pay taxes when the rich won't. Yeah, because that's happened. Another post read the only person lion is that fat bastards speaking? That was directed towards me? Oh really one of ours? One of the comments, Yeah, somebody said that on platform. It's gotta bek they're the biggest think. It was reels and it's one of those where you have to hit the hidden comment. Those are the best. I never checked those, and the guy literally said. Kidding. He said, the only person lion is the fat bastard speaking. Comments. It's so funny. I'm you didn't talk about the lieutenant governor. Oh I forgot about that story last week. Good one, Emma, Emma, I'm so glad you brought that. What's happening? So our former lieutenant governor, by the way people forget, was a rising star in the Democrat Party. He was actually considered a person that would run for governor next justin Fairfax? Okay? He killed himself and his wife? And was he from Fairfax? Am I getting confused on that? No? I think so. So he's justin Fairfax, from Fairfact, Okay, all right? And he killed his wife and then shot and killed himself and his children I believe were at home at the time. Two teenagers saw it. So here's what bothers me more than anything. Worse than that. Is the people Listen, Trent. When I'm looking at Facebook and I see a person show a picture of the guy's wife, but leave out Justin's name or any affiliation to the Democrat party. You put a Facebook post in say tragically gun violence, you leave out that she was killed by a Democrat attorney general. Do you possibly was he lieutenant governor? Do you possibly think when some seers, do you think if whins Sears killed her husband that they wouldn't say Republican Martinsars? Come on, man, this guy apparently also they were going through a divorce. They're separated, going through a divorce, whatever the technical definition of that was. He had just gotten He had tried to get her arrested recently for domestic abuse. Yes, and the cops and somehow she had cameras in the house to prove that there was a lie. This dude is a great winner here. So in twenty nineteen, he faced sexual assault allegations dating back to two thousand and two thousand and four. This is why while he was lieutenant governor. Result resulted in him departing from the law firm, and people called for his resignation, but he still served out the return the remaining of his term. Democrats swallow the pill, baby. Yeah, as long as you get in you're a d I mean, it was a guy that ran for Attorney general last year. I mean he literally is on the phone talking about yeah, murdering yeah man a fellow congressman, and. Trump is the danger. Yeah. It's just I'm so glad you brought that up, good one, only because I just it does infuriate me to see the Facebook post where people literally leave out the details and just say, yeah, it's so this woman, this poor woman. For her, and don't get me wrong, I have to do feel bad for her. Yeah, but you can't leave out who did it? Right? It's crazy. Oh, anyway, move it on too. Even worse story this week's KBI killed by an immigrant. Yeah, seven year old Ivory Smith was killed by Joel Enrique Gonzales. God how many names he got enroll Joel Enrique Gonzales sh Shhian checking checking of Venezuela. He was driving drunk after being released on fellony assault charges. Wow. And then this poor kid ends up dead because of it. Thank you, Kamala and Biden. It's freaking awful. So all right, moving on, win win win. We're gonna win, win, win, and we're gonna make America great again. I will stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons. When the very first day I came down the escalator in twenty fifteen, I said, quote, I will stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons. And all I'm doing is keeping my promise. Think of that that was in twenty fifteen. That's what the people all the time go, Oh my god, all that guy does is lie again. It's almost like we don't have video to show you. How about this. He's actually doing what the others have said they would do too. I mean literally, Hillary Clinton said she would attack I ran. Yes, the guy that you said, who is a threat to democracy again, that's the guy who during his campaign said he was going to fix immigration. Okay, what is he doing? Check who said he will keep Iran from getting a new gular bomb? Right? He wanted to bring wars to an end, the seven piece of riements. I think we had. Hey, by the way, how's the guyz that coming along? Yeah, we got we got protests going on there. Yeah, just all of these things. Meanwhile, you have our governor saying, oh, I would never redistrict. No, we're not going to do that. Yeah, didn't we just do that? I mean the first thing was a lie. Lies. Yeah. Anyway, ye all right, move it on to our Mount Rushmore Okay, so who's whose idea? So I read it? You. I just about the time Chris asked what are we going to do for a Mount Rushmore? I had just seen somebody give a top ten sporting list of things to fall asleep to, something that you could nap at and still enjoy. Do you, oh and still enjoy? Yeah? I mean you can still watch. You don't have to enjoy. I'm just saying anything you can fall asleep? Do you? When you use Facebook? How do you know that you and Chris are having a conversation because you always comment. I guess I'm asleep like me. Yeah, but I don't know when you guys have texted or done't. You don't have Messenger. I do, but it doesn't tell me that I have something waiting. You're going to have to turn your notifications on. Oh yeah, well there's so. I mean, you're cracking on me. But I don't even know that you're. Only cracking on you because you hadn't answered anything for a couple of days. And then he asked, and I just said, well maybe, and I said, maybe he's napping. It's because the subject was napping. It was a joke for God's sakes, I get it. Then he stop, Yeah, yawners. So this is what I said. Somebody was hilarious. I had a top ten list of things he could fall asleep to watching sports. Well, I thought it was funny, good, and so I sat down and started to do it. Do you want me to do Chris's Yes? Do Christmas first? Okay? Chris said number one, he can fall asleep at soccer. Yep, I agree with that. I do not. Soccer is forty five minutes each half. I mean, good grief. Figure skating, I agree with that cornhole on TV. I got to give him that too. I just don't understand how that became a sport. And how it's interesting. Yeah I can't it be fun to play. Yeah, but it's not something you watch. Yeah. Uh he put Now, thus there was a slab Virginia check football. How is that not the number one thing? Right? Now? You got parachuters. They can't even get the parachute. That looks like it hurt. He hit that thing with a thud. He's lucky to be alive. He just said it took the breath out of him. And he said his last one is bowling. He could go to sleep watching that's a good one. Yea. So my first two were soccer and bowling. What is with the soccer hate? So soccer you can still fall asleep and then wake up in the last five minutes and watch who won? Did you play soccer growing up? To me? No, but there's a lot to me like hockey, whereas I will watch it when it's the World Cup and I will I'm riveted by it at the World Cup level. But that's it. That's all you're. Gonna get out of it, I feel like. But it is different if you play like if you're actually. Okay, Emma, since you like it so much, explain this to me. Yeah, why are they thirty thousand different leagues? True? You can't even explain to me who's winning what league? Yeah, the Premier League was then the next week European Championship. But but you have the same team competing in each different league. Yeah, I don't understand it. Okay, that was not my point to this is to have a sport that you can freaking follow. Yeah I can't. And then don't get me started on the freaking my lead. I mean it's awful. Oh in the spray a little spray on it. And he jumps up and takes off like you've never had a problem. If you want to fix that, it's a two minute penalty, yes, oh just two minutes. I don't know why they don't. You should recover. It's it's impot like I want to watch it. Yes, but they're flopping around so much. I can't stand it. Only the NBA is getting that way the women. And I did see where now they do call delay of games in the NBA, and it is a technical if you flop and fall over and calls a delay. Good. Uh, real wrestling? What's not wrestling? You mean? Like I can't watch w W, WWE stuff. But I can't sit and watch a wrestling like two guys grappling. The rock still pulls me in. He was at Wrestle Mannia this weekend, and I still have to watch what he has to say. I can watch that, but I can't watch real wrestling. No, but I don't know if I can go to sleep though. I mean, I don't even know. They rolled in three minutes. The guy goes point like what what did he do? Took him down? Rolled him over? All? Right, everybody, you start on top? What? Yeah, I don't get it. Yeah, all right, so and then my last one is fishing tournaments. Yeah, like I just you. I think it was you that said one time, the worst job in the world has got it to be a fish the editor the fishing show, Like the poor emma that has to sit there watch eight hours of. Fishing a half show and they catch five fish and you're like, oh, that's great, what a exciting show. Well that took them twelve hours to do that. Yeah, that would be awful. The guy that has to edit that sucks. Emma. Do you have anything that you go to see? But I'm not waking back up for these golf Oh see, I love golf as the one like the main sport that. I cannot Yeah, and that was number one of this guy's lists, the Masters great nap in sport. It's a great nap and sport. I agree too many people. It takes too long boxing because I hate fighting and punching, so I like, yeah. But I don't think knock me out. I all asleep because it's boring. Someone knock me out? You know what? I would say, I'm right there with you in today's boxing. But when Trent and I grew up, there's no way you were sleeping through herns. And haggler, I wouldn't be in the room. Nothing like that, okay, And then did put the Tour de France. Father, David did cycling. That's actually not a bad thing too. It's I mean, until you get to the finish line, who cares? Or like marathons, Yeah, like in the Olympics. Like how do you you wait for the Kenyon? You're not gonna believe this summer. But I just went back to the list. So there's another group that I like checking with to see what their their answers would be. And today Jeff was like it was getting late to day, I'm busy, and he goes, what's today's Mount Rushmore? I love that they asked? Is Mount Rushmore? For sports that are the best for napping? He put Tour de France was number one? Father, And then he puts NASCAR. Sorry, I did say Nascar at home, Like if you're watching it at your house. Yeah, I do agree with it. I love a Sunday afternoon NASCAR, NAPU, men's early round, tennis. I do agree with that. That's okay if you're not really into it until the finals or whatever. It could be it's it's a drawn out and then he put a little stab at his wife. WVU football and then pro soccer played in the US men and women. Wait, who made this list? It was our our my friend group and Robert Brian Frintz said golf because they just whisper. It puts you to sleep, you know when they're talking. So I had golf in my list. Listen, I'm a NASCAR fan, but Nascar is a perfect napping sport. You can watch the start, you can not offer half an hour an hour, you can wake up, you know what everything that happened because they're still in the race, and you watch the end of the race. It's made for the rest of the show. Can we do much well, not half at it, half had it. It's got too much volume. We'll do it on yours. There's one that hasn't made anybody's list and is surprising to me. Baseball. That's no watch the first inning, you fall asleep, you wake up, and it's the sixth or seventh inning. You're good. You can watch the end of it. It's the best napping. Sport there a professional. But I like watching college. Oh college is wait, I kind of like college too. I've gotten to wear I I like it. It's like college football to me, is better than NFL. You know what, I could have put drag racing in there. I don't. It's not. Yeah, the thing about drag races it's ten seconds top, but then the rest of it we gotta sit there and spin them out and rub the tire and yeah, shut out. There is one that has not been mentioned that I just cannot get into, and I would fall indoor golf. It's the thing where they're doing the Oh. I just I'm behind the scenes so I get to hear them talk. I'm kind of bored by it. Okay, that's my list. I don't think I had five. Oh what's someone for next week? We don't know yet. No, No, we did say earlier there was a concerts that you would want to go to? Should we do want to go to or have them? You can do whatever you want, or just top concerts. Concerts that you want to do, concerts you want to do. You said you do Luke Bryan And that's it, Zach close that Brian Luke. Who's Luke Brian. He's what you just said. He's the funny guy that went on American idol. He sings hunting, fishing, love and every Oh. Okay, that's the one that everybody was really big after a few years ago. Right, I love Lubrian. He's hilarious. Okay, so that's the one that all the ladies wanted to go see not too long ago. Do you remember that? Do you remember the huge Kenny Chesney fans there were oh yes back in the yeah two thousands. Yeah, absolutely, yeah, before you get into their next segment, yes, a shout out. I just remembered to father David's wife was mom. She hands out their business. Cards at school, all of her teacher friends to subscribe. Very cool. So mom's lighting up the chat tonight. She must be bored. I don't know why father David doesn't hand out. I don't think they're allowed inside the plant. I'm going to do a billboard at the front end. Yeah, mom, she's dude. Your mom is nailing these comments. So Fairfax thirty five thousand mail in votes? Tell me how do they get thirty five thousand people. I know it's all relative, but come on, I'm thirty five thousand mail in I told you that it is. Something's wrong there. They need to go back and look at doing her. Oh, I thought about this. If you can make a software that proves to me that the picture in baseball is cheating, yes, by the rotation. Of course, you. Can't make a software. This is something's going on Shenanigans in this particular county. Every election you and I have ever watched up until I would say two thousand and twenty, maybe a little before it, every one of them, the pundits always broke down everything about the election. Yeah, the ethnicity of the voter, the suburban white women, the college educated. Yeah, they don't break it down anymore. Have you know, no, because they can't justify the vote, right, dude, I'm telling you, there's got to be somebody out there. I thought about this. If I was a professor, just a VMI one day, I would just start making my people start studying those things. Show me the counties that make that big of a difference. We're starting methane are we're studying methane and cows? We can't study election results? Yeah? And what's more important to this country? Correct? Yeah, maybe we should do this. She's making some good stool. Class at Liberty University election result class study. She would pay money Brian to watch either one of us try to figure skating, and wants to know if either one of us could do a quadruple axle. I mean teams you can do like the group. My skates would look like a machete. Hold up, oh, she asked us. Also, have either of you watched R A F? What is R A F? I looked it up. I don't know what it was, and she says phenomenal. I don't know what R A F is? No, what is this? It's a comedy drama. What's it on? What's the platform? I don't know. I like people making comments during the show. That's kind of fun. Does your mother read a lot? Oh crap, where do you think I learned to read? I did not read. All right, it's like the Black martgage. Okay, well we might not. We like our comments. We just don't like our choices. We were we were almos say it was like the best comments ever, and then just all. Right on to father David. All right, go ahead.

Okay, you know how much I'll prepare for this show? Yes you do. You may not know this, but it's like during the whole week, I literally try to find things for it. And what I really love about this is when I'm in a hurry on Wednesdays and get down here. I feel bad you sent to the agenda. I marked it up and scanned it. For some reason, I never got you the email. It didn't come through, so I don't know what happened. But I had to get it next week. I had to get down here. Yeah, that happened to us before, so but that was an email to myself, so I don't know what happened. Anyway, Sometimes when I look at these. I don't have the time to rewatch them. So a couple of these I don't know what they are. I'm just going by the subject line. If it catches my attention, yeah, I save it. Yeah. I'll sit over there working on the agenda and I'll look at the video and go why would I put this on here? Exactly? And then I throw it away, and then I'll finish and I'll go why didn't I put that on? All right? So I think you had some weird ones this time. I'm kind of me Now, okay, this is oh right, now I know what this is. This is for Grayson. This is okay, we talk about the stuff we learned in school. He did the trade school and he's got a good job. Right, okay, so this is cut t in What are we learning in school? Your taxes? No? Do you know how to build credit? Do you know what a four to one K is? Absolutely? Do you know how to mail a check? Do you know how to balance a checkbook? No? Do you know what a mortgage is? No? Do you know what the powerhouse of the sellers? That's the baggery theorem. A square plus B square equals c square. Do you know what moon phase. This is waxing gros. Do you know the underlying theme for of Mice and Men? The impossibility of the American dream? That is true the stuff we learned right, I didn't even know what that first one was. But balancing a checkbook that should be the number one easiest thing to do us in a class. Also, so I know, I didn't look up the right movie. It was some boxing movies. She pulled up. Oh okay, it wasn't reading, so calm down. Shout out to Nathan by the way, I forgot about the mt. Nathan Warner. Yeah. Back to Aaron Mechanic. Oh yeah, he's working again. Yeah, so great, great that you. I mean, just you're back at the place you were. That's a very very happy for him. Yes, he did that. No poison toads. He listened last week to Brew, which she's saying last week we played a clip for him. Is to be careful of some of these women. I man, I saw a great MEMI last night. It said, how do these butchers? How come they can anyone tell them they can just get a normal haircut? God? Why do they have to get the buzz cut? I have to look ab normal? Yeah? I don't understand that. Why can't they just have a pretty haircut? Okay, So I have this one called and I'm not sure what this is and maybe when I look at the screen, why do they why do they hate everything? So let's hear what this one's about. God, let stop thinking about how grass lawns are racist. I'm like, based in white supremacy grass lawns. If that doesn't make sense, that's a okay, I guess it seems really obvious to me. It's it's really upsetting. Bring back weeds, bring back clover yards. Look, can we just can can anything just be okay in its natural state? Or do we just have to whitewash everything, make it a competition and use it as a sign of your worth as a human being in society? Like, can we just have weeds? It's obvious that she has taken to that in her appearance. Yeah, she's left herself natural. She's very earthy. It's Earth Day. You might want to look at some makeup. Yeah, so what do you think her a yard looks like? Oh, dude, clover dandelions? No notice the camera didn't pain. It's probably pristine. She probably don't have a yard, but I mean I could see Vinyl. You know what. She's at her grandparents' house, and her grandfather is probably out there fertilizing the lawns because he gets up and he goes to work. Yeah, that's ridiculous. Yep. Now she's in the basement. What does your lawn look like compared to your neighbors mine? I hate my lawn. WHU. It needs to be deweeded, so you don't put any effort into your lawn. I like, I don't like the whitewash. So it's racism. She literally said it was racism stemmed in racism. No I did. I literally told my long guy today, did fix it? Stop? I just it's awful. Fix it? Okay, So you have some care that it looks good, and you've gotten to a point where you can say I have a lawn guy, which I do too. It's the evolution of society. All have lawng guys. We see all there's two of. Us, okay, two d's. Holding out I mode very many years. And then when I went to townhouse living, I didn't have to have a lawn mode anymore. And the house that Marty and I bought, I told her I don't mind buying this house, but I am not mulling this damn lawn. That thing is a bee, correct, So yeah, we are at a point. But I want my lawn to look good. I would be embarrassed if it looked with clover and dandelions and scraggly. I take pride in what I have, and maybe that's what we should be promoting. Have pride in what you have. Yep. They don't want to be proud of things. No, they're not proud of their country. Nope, nope. All right, so let's uh. I think you probably saw this when this was pretty big this week. That's mom, Donnie. Let's hear him talk to us about what he brought along to the table. May I said I was going to tax the rich. Well today we're taxing with it. I'm thrilled to announce we've secured a peeditar tax, the first in New York's history. This is an annual fee on luxury property is worth more than five million dollars whose owners do not live full time in the city, like for this penthouse, which Hedge Fond CEO Ken Griffin bought for two hundred and thirty eight million dollars. This pier to tear tax is specifically designed for the richest of the rich, those who store their wealth in New York City real estate, but who don't actually live But even so they're able to reap the huge financial rewards of owning property and dare I say, the greatest city in the worlds and most of the time these units are sitting empty since again they don't actually live here. This is a fundamentally unfair system that hurts working New Yorkers. Now it's coming to an end. This tax will raise at least five hundred million dollars directly for the city, and it'll help fund things like free childcare, cleaner streets, it's say, for neighborhoods. As mayor, I believe everyone has a role to play in contributing to our city, and some a little bit more than others. Happy tax day, New York, a little bit more in others. First of all, I'm just I'm being honest with you here when I say, if it was an effective tax, mmm, you wouldn't put a fancy name to it. Yeah, appeer to tier Pierre de ta you would just call it a wealth tax. Yeah. So he mentions a couple of things in here. And you know the guy that we love from Shark Tank. Yes, he said, you're taxing someone that has no requirements of the city. He's not living there. Yeah, his children don't go to school. He's not putting a strain on your tea. He doesn't ye strain on anything. If anything, what he has done is created jazz because guess what happens when the guy buys a two hundred and thirty eight million dollar penthouse. Yeah, he isn't going to leave it the way he bought it, correct, He's going to change it. Yes. So now the model that they use to sell that place, Now, what you did was when he goes to sell it, it's going to be harder for him to sell. So what does he have to do to sell it. He's got to drop the price. But he's not going to sell it because that's the part that Mendanni has already told us. Yeah, he's going to confiscate those buildings, oh wow, and he's going to turn them into free housing. He's going to tax you you sell it. Yeah, remember from now on they have to approve the sales. Oh wow. Well, so just the main economics of that is you've stopped people from working and then are working on those things. Yes, right, it's a niche market. I'm sure to go in and make a two hundred and thirty eight million dollars estate really nice. And then when he goes to sell it, now they've already stopped trying to sell. Now you can only sell it to the people that are in New York because the people out of New York are going to get an extra tax. All right. So anyway, it's the math will never work. Around like a loose to, like the tenters and the ice tray. Caroline camera again, what up? The math might never work, but mine will. Yep, that is true. How did you do this week with Nascar? Well? I had the results get both of you tied with forty seven points, none of us picked the winner, and I won with forty two points. Okay, so but my best performer was Denny Hamlin. It was right to win it. He was Oh god, I just wanted to scream. Did you scream? There was nobody around to hear it, so it would be like does a tree make noise when it falls in the woods. No, I didn't scream. I just thought, here we go again. Now, how happy would I have been if I had money on Tyler Reddick. That was a heck of a comeback for then. Wasn't it interesting when he was in the lead and then he said he ran out of gas and they were like, there's no way he ran out of gas. Yeah, what happened there? Anybody figured that out? Yeah? I don't know either. I've never heard anybody say what did happen? But there's no way he came in the pits more recent than Hamlin did. That's right, So I don't know. He couldn't run out of gas. Okay, tell us? All right, So NASCAR two years ago approved, but they've got two tanks in the car now. They got a first pick up in the second, so they have a second pickup switch to where he clicks it if he runs out of gas. He got three gallons and the other tank that you're able to use with the second pickup switch. So he used that and he was able to go and there was not no second green and white flag. So he had enough three few, three gallons a few to get around the track to actually be competitive. So people don't know that, but they want to speculate on it. But that's the real deal. Well they also and you can go. They did get the pit though after that, so it was just interesting that his spoder said there's no way you know what I mean? So he uh ah man. But when Denny went back around and I was like, oh my gosh, I can't believe I'm going to win this. Damn Cody where spins around? Whatn't the hell? Are you ready? We're going to Talladego this weekend. Anybody want to go? You and Brian, any of us? I wish I could go. No, but I am going to watch. Even if I'm at the late Morto race. I'm still going to pull up the Riley series. I'm curious to see what this is gonna be like at Pulaski. Hopefully the rain will come in and we can see it because we're in the VIP towers, so I don't know what that means. How has our boy done? They have this is the first race of the year. Oh wow? Yeah? So and he is not in the Sportsman division. He is in the late Model. Okay, this is a brand news car and. This is Corey Dunn. Yes, and have you verified whether our logo is on the car? I still have yet to see the car. I'm starting. I want to go, even if it's training, just to see the car. Car. Yeah, me too. What time are we leaving? Probably around two thirty three, Okay, qualifying at. Five, so we should get the old Carolin. You're going, Yeah, I'm having the pew Lasky. That's probably not far a dance. I might might be a chance. I'm may be done and ella hasse? Oh what's down there? Tallahass in Talladaga? No? Did you mean to say Talladega? No, I said Tallahassee, Florida and Talladega Georgia. What are you gonna do in tallahas Talladega's in Alabama? Well, Alabama, I'm sorry, not Georgia. Sorry, but you've been drinking us afternoon. What are you doing here? Why would you be in Tallahassee just because it's round with Talladega? No, because the corporate office is down there in Florida and they're near Tallahassee. So I thought maybe I might make a trip down and the head up to the race and come back home. I'm only an hour and forty eight minutes from speedway. Oh wow, I'll tell you what I would be interested in if I was with you going down to Tallahassee is check out the Florida state base fall schedule and see if you could go to a Seminoles baseball baseball game. That would be kick ass. Yeah they're pretty good. Yeah? Are we ready for our picture? Oh? I was gonna tell Trenton Brian will mainly Brian because he's a Duke fan, but I didn't know if he saw the local news on the picks that we picked up from the portal for U n C. Oh, you got some good guys. That Oh okay, Brian, Brian knows who we got. I don't we stole one guy from these states? No? Really nice. You'll figure it out later on. Brian don't like to say. Brian don't like to say too much when it is not his Dukie, So. I don't have to Duke right now has the number one recruiting class and the number one transfer portal. So why would I want to say anything about U n C's Why. Would anybody want to do that and just go to the Elite eight? Well, would you want to? Oh my god? Hey, if you guys had to bet without looking, which you probably already looked, but if you had to bet who that. I know Kevin gets upset with the betting odds for me to say it, But who would you all say that? They said, is the number one chance to win the race this weekend? Joey Logano? Oh, how'd you know that? Because I've already bet on him? Idiot, He's not going to win wasting the money. That's dumb. I don't get that either. Well as dumb as a box of rocks. It's all right, so let's go ahead and make our picks. Who did you have? That's so dumb you would triple a cool of song. Jesus? All right? What are your picks? Brisco Wallace, Priest, all. Right, I'm gonna write these down. Briscoe Wallace is a good pick, and Priest, that's a cool ass pick. I like that last year. Okay, mine R you said Logano? I do I have Logano? Carson Jose ar Oh, that's a good pick. And his teammate Daniel Jez. Okay, I'm going Tyler Reddick. Mm hmm. You can't wait a little super speech. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. Kyle Larson, isn't that crazy that this would be his first Super Speedway win? In his career. I know that sounds like, oh, you're picking a favorite, but he's not a super speed speedway guy. And let me see, I'm going to get a long shot here. Would y'all give me Brad Keselowski as a long shot. No, he hasn't won in a couple of years. I'm going to go Brad Brad Keselowski. I wanted to do Chris mister Busher, mister Bush, did you get your shirt yet? No? I haven't. Huh, that's a good point. You order the stare. I did. Yeah, it's U that guy. You know. We listened to Tyler Panell on TikTok. He calls him every week. He calls him mister Busher and he finally got them talked into making a shirt calling him mister Busher. So Brian got one of his shirts. I think that's kind of cool. Look at Emma during the show posting on Facebook about L eight. I know, and he thought I was reading a book, which is kind of alid. I knew you were cooking. I was cooking and on Instagram that's awesome. I was cooking. What is she cooking? Posts? I'm cooking something for tomorrow too. But I like this Emma in the studio. She just means she's working. She's using them young persons terms. Oh, it just says they're preparing the order. When I ordered them, it said they were on back order, so I don't know what. Okay. Oh, so the up to date numbers. I have two hundred and seventy nine points, Kevin has three hundred and thirty seven points, and Brian has four hundred and six points. Okay, don't say that on the air, because then he gets all mad. All of that, Kevin, You're the one that gets all mad, So don't forget people who listen to the show so they know the difference. Now, boys, that's why I'm on top. When the meter goes. Exert, Oh my gosh, many of you plan in your garden. It's all done. I'm finished. Oh nice? What do we have this year? It's a little early in trance favorite? Ok Trin's favorite? What Trin's favorite? Op? Oprah? Oh? Okrah? What's I'm getting older? I can? I can stand it a little bit? What else. For different tomatoes? Big boys, better boys, romas, yep, beef steak, beef steak. Beef steaks, eat waves, better boys, bigger girls, mm hmmm. Uh, I guess Roma beans, I mean Roma tomatoes. I got uh half runners and blue lake oh ten direct you. Got any squash and zucchini and cucumbers? Yep, yep. I could send you a picture, man. Send me a picture I like. I like garden updates. Well, I got it going on. No shame in this game. I break the down a bag like James. How's work going? You? Uhring a lot of people? Good Lord still takes people home every day. Just to uh not bring the mood down or anything, but just want to give a news story or I don't even know how we would express this, but Nana passed away. My grandmother passed away last night, ninety four years old, or very close to ninety four years old. She was ninety three. Nana was Nana. She was only Nana. Well, I mean I had other grandmother obviously, Grandma, my grandma, well, we just called her grandma. She was Annie, but Nana outlasted all my grandparents. She was my last grandparent to go old less. Grandma Jenny she's my step grandmother, but my grandfather hooked him a young one, so she's still around. She's up there and listening to the podcast, Love and Old Carolina Kid. Yeap, nice. So I don't know when the funeral be but I got a kind of a lot sometime for that. She lived up in Stanton area. I don't know where she'll be as long she doesn't beunivested, probably thirty years of me knowing her. Where did she go when she left Highland there? Oh well no, I think there was a time where she was in Stanton. But all right, Kevin, we're wrapping it up. Oh are you a homeless trent Sir? What do you call a sleeping boom? A sleeping bull? I don't know. A bull nosa? My god? Wow? Oh man, I don't know why I laugh so hard those but they get me every time. We still have some more clips. Yeah, yeah, right, I can jump into it really quick, all right, before you do, Yeah, a little breaking news. I got two Moorrow oh, Arlington, Virginia. A Virginia judge has blocked the certification of the results for the congressional map, deeming the referendum bill to be unconstitutional. Finally we have a judge on our side that will say something. We'll see how long that goes. But uh, yeah, well good, you know what there's other ways that we can win in the office. Jay Jones says, they will appeal, but at least we do have a decision on the court case. Okay, that's good. All right, dude, we're at that they're at that mode. Right. So we're in the year twenty twenty six. The election was twenty twenty four, so usually about two years out between twenty one you start people having pot their posturing, trying to get that primary. So h so, now we're start to get these guys and gals to go to show up. So this is Corey Booker, let me and he's at the place called Michigan Democratic Women's Caucus and he's talking to a room full of women, and of course they're going to cheer at the end, you know, the halfway cheer and then realize he's done, so we have to cheer. But let me ask you something. Does this guy exude leadership to you? But he's trying hear this, gentlemen, there is a storm in our nation. Gentlemen, there is darkness and wind. People are getting hurt. What we need is not from on high. We need foot soldiers of our democracy who, in times. Of trial, are. Willing to stand up? Will you stand for our democracy? Was there anything about him that he tries so hard to be like Obama or an orator or whatever? He sucks at it. He looks like he's in pain. Who he's the Howard remember him? D Who? Yeah? Howard Dean? Yes, Yeah, that is exactly what it looks like. Why does he keep trying? He thinks if he screams yeah and yells that, we're gonna look at him like he's the next Martin Luther King. Yeah, they it's like him and Hakeem Jefferies. Yeah, at some point in time, don't we just look at him and dismiss him as just playing stupid? Okay, so this one, I can't say how long. Okay, it's just forty seven seconds. I worry about making a clip long because I know how she gets when it gets to seven o'clock. And when I mean she, I mean the one cooking back there. So I forget what this one's about. But dude, it's just Scott Jennings. Thank god they have him on CNN. He's the he's got to be the reason people watch. Is just someone smart. Let's listen to him. Cut forty seven right, And even if we look at, like what the United States is the greatest country in the world. Thirty six percent of people said that was true, forty one percent said it's one of only. Twenty three percent of people said we're not one of the greatest country. And if you look at the splits on that by politics, what would you find don't if you look at the splits on how people feel about America, the promise of America, if you look at whether they're proud of their country or not, Gallup has measured this. Republicans and Conservatives are proud to be Americans, and it's Democrats and liberals who are not. And I think if you look at the splits in that, you find opposite of where I want to sign. You sign the lines on the graph going this way. And honestly, I mean, I think there's a political movement in this country right now built on telling people that America's rotten at its core and it's not the Republican ideology. Thank god he's there. She would have been without him sitting there. She would have tried to correlate that is, this country is not proud of what Donald Trump is doing. Correct, That's what. It's what her hope was, how could you not have the splits? Yeah, exactly, like, what do you mean you don't have them? Right? Every one of you sitting up here knows what it is. Yes, And because when you have the splits, you know who you talk to more of to be able to get that swing that you wanted. Anyway, that's that was my last clip, you know what. Yeah, that is that's interesting. Russe Lumbaugh always used to say that, always look at your scientific poling. Yeah, notice we don't see that anymore. Even with poling, they don't give you the scientific side of it. Yeah, the plus or minuses. Yes, yep. So the last thing to have for us today is is Nick Saban. You know what the screen it looks like. I thought he was wearing pink the thing here, but yeah, yeah, it's it's not good. But he's drinking his coke there, and you see our pepsi products are being promoted again this week. Nick is probably, if you did, the most quoted person on this show. End of show, he's probably number one, right, Lou Holtz maybe number two? Five? Yeah, so this is I can't even remember what it was. Nick Saban on the five Choices we have in life, and that's to end the show. I love motivational things to end, all right, we will, Damn I kept I kept waiting for her to jump in. Well, Emma's tired and it's making me tired. So next week, Emma, we'll be back. Yeah, okay, I can't remember. Oh, Trent, forgot to tell you. I'm going out town. Huh in of May. But we're gonna but we're still doing teaching a sidekick. To do it, no kidding. This is how much the show has grown. That awesome. Hey, when you announced you when you announced your news story, where was the judge from Tall? Okay that's what That's what our show contributor just messaged us. Oh okay, that's what you're reading. Yeah, oh the judge from Taskwell, he had issued an order previous. Now he's affirming that order and it's actually he has denied the motion to stop so to certify it. Well, he's correct, but he has also denied the Democrat's motion to stay this so they could certify it. So I'm assuming the next step is the three judge panel. Yeah, and I don't know what. That is, of course, I mean, you know what I mean. It's gonna be two to one or something. But hey, Donald Trump, the no judge would have said anything. Ye, atleast for fighting. Oh hey, before we go, I just got a picture of the garden. Should I send that to Emma so she can add to the post? Sure? Yes, she can just do a little more cooking. This is the This is the dessert of what you're cooking, Emma. All right, everybody, we will see you next week. We'll leave you with Nick Saban five choices. You know in our life, you know, we can be bad at what we do. I mean, we can be average at what we do. I mean we can be good at what we do, which probably is God's expectation for whatever ability he gave us. Or we can be excellent, or we can be elite. Right, and everybody has a choice as to what they want to do and how they want to do that. But if you're going to be excellent or elite, you got to do special things. You have to have special intensity, you have to have special focus, you have to have a special commitment and drive and passion to do things at a high level and a high standard all the time. And it doesn't matter what God given ability that you have that probably can make you good, but without the rest of it, I'm not sure you ever get excellent, or at least
