It's just the voice of veteran voices. Yeah. So if we're not going on YouTube, why can't we start to show off with the music because we're trying to get through all of this. Okay, i'mre plateauing up. Yeah, we're growing all right. Sorry, as I hit the microphone, we were escalating. Yeah, I said, we're creating a crescendo. Yeah, so that mountain dew there? What anyway? Well, God, I can't start a program with you guys. You're killing me here. I just caught off. I was just caught off guard. As people probably know, we don't have a special guest today because otherwise we would be very rude. This was the day you were supposed to have the guest today. You were going to work today out listen. He's a judge, okay, and a professor. It's he's a very difficult schedule. I mean, what else they got to do. Let's say guilty, Let's cancel class at summertime. They ain't got class. Let's hope you get a speeding ticket in Bedford County. Love my judges. All right, Yeah, we do have a really good show. I can't wait because we don't have a guest today, so we get the banter back and forth. Yeah, and those who have TikTok, you'll notice that we have a TikTok page as well Grocery FM. By the way, the Veteran Voices kicks ass. Oh yeah, it's really really good. I've gone back and listened to them. I really have. There's stuff you miss while you're. Thinking about the question, what's the next question, the follow up question, what did you just say? That kind of thing, and you get to hear a little more tently. Yeah, And I'm learning so much about the military that I didn't know because I I watched on Ryan a lot. Yeah, I'm trying to learn some of the lingo. In the latest episode I watched, he was interviewing a guy that was in Delta Force, and I had heard of Delta Force before, but I didn't know. I knew it was kind of the tip of the spear. Yeah, I didn't realize it was all that, Like, that's crazy. It's the Army's version of the Seals kind. Of kind of sort of I think that's what it started. But now it's like the best of the Seals get to like it's everybody's dream is to be the Delta Force. Well, if you're the Army right now, No, that's. What I'm saying. It's become the tip of the spears what they call it, So I don't think there's anything above that to. Do some research. Anyway, what I've enjoyed is I had mentioned watching my favorite movie that I've been saying for twenty years was We Were Soldiers and it was a Vietnam movie. So I wanted to rewatch it. So after last week's episode, I went home and had Marty. She washed it with me. We watched We Were Soldiers, and I was wanting to see if it still held its you know, twenty years later, it is still a good movie. Dude. Since we've been doing these interviews, I just watched the movie differently, the gunners that are on the helicopter and showing them land in Vietnam and jumping up and getting back and bringing supplies and going back and picking up the Oh man, it just means more now that I've had these interviews. It's cool. Absolutely, And that's one of the things that I picked up on when I was watching Sean Ryan was the Delta Force didn't start until after Vietnam, So, I mean, we didn't have these special units when those guys were badasses at Vietnam, you know what I mean. Well, Vietnam was actually new for us because guerrilla warfare was not. And I remember this, I remember my dad talking about this back in the day. Doesn't it just not how we did battles. I mean we lined up and you had rows, and you had tunnels and yeah, all that stuff. But it was completely you know, snipers was not. That's something that was new to the Marine Corps, was creating a sniper man. Anyway, Yeah, we do have another one coming back on next week, right, Yes, you want to profile that one. Yeah, I wasn't ready for that. Set him up for success? Well, I want to get to that part of the show. I was ready, all. Right, moving on, yeah, uh in all seriousness, Uh, it has been David to do that. David Stokes. David Stokes. So what's really cool about his story that I thought was neat for the show, is the first time that we've had someone that was drafted to go into the military. Oh wow. So we've had volunteers yeah, right, so to get ahead of the draft. Wow. So but this is pretty neat. So I kind of want to hear that story of this. So it's to be a non bet David Stokes from Lynchburg. That's awesome. Yeah, I do want to ask the question, if I forget on one of these, what is the and I'm only asking as a severe don't bite my head off, what is the obsession with medals? Like it seems like when they not necessarily when we do the interviews here, but some that I've heard on different podcasts is like there's a lot of pissed off people or that person should have got a medal and didn't. What is that? I mean, what's the Is it a press? Is it more of a prestigious thing within the military, because civilians, to be honest with you, I don't know that they know the difference between a medal of honor or a purple heart or whatever. So the culture, and it's a culture thing is in the military you're paid very little. You do things for honor, yeah, and you do things for reward, which is by promotion when it used to be much bigger deal than it is now. But when you talk to a lot of old salts, they'll say what rank they were by I finished as an E four, I finished as they say that as much as they would a sergeant. Yeah, like they know the ranking, So you getting promoted was a huge, huge ordeal right, sure, Well, medals are sort of the same thing. It was a badge of honor. And you getting dissed for a medal that you should thought you got or your family thinks you should have got is a big deal because you don't get paid a lot of money to serve, and sometimes you serve just for the reward, right, the reward of a medal, or just to serve your country, So it can be a big deal. It's big culture in the military, right. I just I noticed that a lot, you know, like the last one we had was two times right purple heart, yes, which is incredible. You know, like the insignias you remember several years ago they got in trouble for they would take like when you got your wings in I guess the Air Force, they would take the actual medal and they would punch it so it would pierce your skin. And then that became hazing, and so that became a story. But it was it's like they do honors with you know, rank and medals and stuff like that. It's a big b or of what they what you do. All right, awesome, Moving on to backwards and forwards. Uh, Emma, Trent and I were supposed to go racing this past weekend, right we were we were going to go to racetracks to watch asphalt racing in Raleigh and Frankfort County and Franklin County, and Trent heard that there could be a possibility of rain, so we decided to switch up and we went to West Virginia. We pivoted. We pivoted and went to West Virginia Cross Lanes, West Virginia outside of north of Charleston, just a little west Charleston. It's west of Charleston. Uh, it's a casino in dog Tracks. Do you know what? We have both found out what we will never have an issue with gambling problems. We had to lose money more than and like even the winning is no Brian, Oh my god, did he win? I got on the roll like dog tracks honestly are as much luck as the roulette will sure. I mean, there's no studying. We literally saw I say literally, we, honest to god saw people studying the program like it was dimly lit. And this guy's got a flashlight looking at the times of every dog book with notes. Yes, and the old guy and he kept jumping people in line like he was using his old man card. What U And he just jump in on line of like, people take this very very seriously, but honest to god, man, it's luck. Whatever they run out there saying that there's fourteen races. We went Friday night and Saturday night. The first six of the first seven or seven of the first eight. Brian actually picked the winning dog, which is impossible to do. And these are like two dollar bets or six dollar bets and stuff like that, and what you went one hundred and twenty It was one hundred and twenty some dollars yere. Yeah, good grief. I ended up breaking even. Yeah, I mean it was but one of the other things we did because I'm going to Vegas next month, so and I'm not a gambler, right, My wife wanted to go, and the neighbors whatever. So we're going like the worst two people to go into a casino. Yeah, And I was not looking forward to it other than I'll go to the shows and see the Hoover Dan. That's really what. I'm going for, right, That's what I would do. So but I wanted to at least I don't want to be a scrooge, you know, So I wanted to try to learn how to gamble, and my neighborhood told me, well, you know, roulette's got to be the easiest. So I told Trenta, said, let's go when it's not busy during the day and let's do roulette. So I sit down at the table and this old guy who's not even gambling at the time, and if he is, he's just throwing a chip every now and then, but he's talking to the help. I mean, he must go there every day because she gave him a recipe. He knew the securities, yeah, the reguards names, he knew everybody there like he walked around like he owned it. So he kind of gave me the ropes, which was very nice. And then he I said, what do I start with? Money wise? And so I gave him one hundred dollars Emma, and he I said, what do I get? Dollar bills? He said dollar bills and nickels, dollars and nickels. And I'm trying to figure out why do I want nichols because the next thing next thing they tell me is every time you play, it's a minimum five dollar bet. Yeah, well, what am I going to do with nickels? Even I can't add I would be counting how many nickels and a dollar. But it turns out nichols doesn't mean nickels, it means five dollar bill. Yeah, so you got dollars. You got dollars and five dollars. Yeah, why can't you just said that? Yeah, it's lee that I didn't understand, but I will say in Trent will tell you my one hundred dollars. While I lost it, I hung around. I was impressed. I hung around for an hour or so at least. Here's what disappointed me. And I told you this. We were at that table, and there was probably a rotation of maybe six eight people while you were there, right like some would walk in, go out, and then someone will come back. One thing I noticed about the roulette table. No one left with money. No one left with more money than they will show O. Well, hell no. They kept throwing good money after bad. I mean just two hundreds yeah here or there? I mean as easy that guy probably what did the guy lose next to you that showed up and then showed up again. Oh, he put down at least seven or eight hundred dollars and the girl beside him at least a thousand, and then the girl that butted her way in me, that made me move, and squeezed him with me, which made me move him. And that's when I started to lose my money. I was winning before. I'm going to say this because we didn't talk about this, but would you have thought think to lesbians? Possibly? Yeah, okay, yeah, we didn't talk about it, but that's what I thought. They were really close. She just kept reaching in her envelope, pulling out hundreds. Yeah, em betting and losing and just kept doing it again. Yeah, like it was nothing. It just ate at my heart. I can't lose money like that. But and I don't know how many times I turned around to Trent and I said, my anxiety is killing me. I can't take this, like I just I can't see people giving money away Like no, I don't care what had happened. I was never going to spend more than one hundred dollars. That was not gonna happen. So when I lost, I got up and left. So worse than that. Well, you meant at the roulette wheel just at that time, like you were going to just learn it a little bit, like yeah, And I. Feel like I can at least hang around and tie you that. Yeah, I learned enough to where I could just play how about how about me not knowing? Like, hey, we even YouTube video later and I still don't know the answer. That's what I'm getting ready to start it. Play the slots like I don't know how to do that. Forget about it. It doesn't make any sense. Well have you ever heard the words penny slots or nickel slots? Okay, well I've heard people say it, and what does that mean? Uh So when you sit down, it gives you the denomination that you choose one cent, two cent, five cents, Okay, but it doesn't make any sense to me because as soon as I put the twenty dollars bill in, it's giving me terms of eighty Yes, so it's eighty one sixty right right, and so it's well, it's like, what the hell does the penny have to do with that? That's what I've always said, Like, I don't understand. I hit that button, Yeah, my stuff goes down eighty If you had done two cents, it'll come down a dollar sixty. Now I know what that means is when you win, you're gonna win double what you would normally have won. So and the one penny means that you're going to get to play a little longer. But anyway, it. Was we went there was no skill in five seconds. Oh dude, I spent yeah. Here, what's crazy is I won two hundred and fifty on a twenty dollars right somewhere and the woman that was sitting next to me goes, oh, my, well her number was at thirty thousand. No like the She goes, hey, you got to cash out now because when these machines start winning, they'll shut them down. I'm like, okay, yes, she's been playing so long in her life, she's created a conspiracy theory about these machines. And I said, well, what's thirty this? She said, I'm cashing out now. I said, was this thirty thousand? Convert to? She said, oh, about three thousand? I was like wow, and then she says, loo, look at you winning. So I checked. Mine went up to two thousand. So I punched it. It was I guess twenty five and two fifty, and she was right, well, twenty dollars got me two fifty. I blew that in an hour. Let me just tell you what you got to do, isn't I you have to have a walker. That's the first thing. I mean, like an old person wanted. Yeah, how many walkers did you see? They were at every crazy I never noticed it. Oh they were everywhere. And their person sitting there with a dink get one hand, and every one of them, I guarantee you smokes and goes outside to that little area. But they're all And that one woman was smacking the screen. Anomber woman laying on the screen like trying to stop the which you could do. I mean, you can't stop it if you touch the screen. But but remember the one Laddy you She had like thirty thousand that night that she had on there, and who knows how long they had been playing. But we had a good time. It was fun. Oh my god, how about the wedding party that showed up. But you've got no Trent. We're at a sports bar inside the casino. We've bet on all of our dogs. And we're betting horses at the same time. They've hooked us into betting horses, and we're watching baseball. Right, that's Virginia baseball, yes, saying Clemson and the crowd, yeah, yes, it's it's a little loud. Yeah, this isn't you know? Anyway, this group comes in wedding group and they're all going up to the bar getting shots, and Trent says to me, comes to a casino after a wedding. Yeah, but he says it like so demoralizing, right, Who the hell chooses to come to a casino a bar? And he looks at me and I just stared back at him, and immediately he. Knows, oh my god, oh. Crap, somebody's behind me. Oh yes, there was. It was a little bit of two from the party behind us, like directly. Because he didn't react either. He didn't hear me, but I could tell by the way he was looking past me. I'm like, oh, ship, there's somebody behind me, and turn up. I turned around slow and it is like they're sitting right there behind. But I bet it's fun. Oh yeah, oh yeah, but we did. We had a great time. It was fun. Did you do anything, Emma, No weddings? No, I worn'd where Joe Beans and I'm dog sitting for two families right now. I'm still mad at jo Beans. You haven't come back, have you. I went back once. She was literally the manager that did that to you. I know, I went back once and I saw her and I purposely asked again, you did? Oh? Yes? She said, no, didn't she? She said to the other girl who was helping me, hastily mad, She went just this one time, one punch, like oh goodness, like she was doing me is her personality. Okay, but I'm just telling you, like you know, I buy coffee there every morning. I just don't think she knew that. I think everybody else does. Let me ask you, Trent. How could everyone else know but the manager not? Because she's new. She ain't that damn new. I've been going there for a right good while. No, she's been there like a month now. She'll learn you. No, she won't. Okay, me not going back going there. Here's the thing. I give away my punch card. Okay, it's just I'm not asking to get a free one on you run. Don't you go to church? Aren't you supposed to just let things go? Okay? Yeah, I am. I'm letting Joe beans go all right? This weekend coming up, your brother and I are going to the river. You should feel bad because we've got potatoes, and man, I love your brother to death, and I'm gonna talk about you, right now, Bradley, but when you ask me to check my local seed store, seed store from Kennebec's or whatever you want potato seed potatoes, I will do it. Yeah, But you call me back literally an hour afterwards and say I found them in Stewart's draft. Then why did he ask you to do it? But then who the hell's driving the Stewart's draft to buy eat potatoes? Yeah? Why do you need potatoes? Well, why didn't he call the same place you would have done? I don't know. I haven't asked that question. Huh. So, yes, we're heading up there. I hope you've got to pick up a tractor. What else he's killing and planting potatoes to make potatoes? Why? Because they eat potatoes all winter along. It's not bad, I dude, there's so many potatoes that come from that dag on. Hey in the cellar, theotatoes that do you heal h harvested last year? Do y'all just throw him out? Now? I don't know that he had any left over, To be honest, Uncle Perry does a good job of kind of spreading them in the community. Yeah, ok, yeah, but if we just did potatoes, it would be fine. Yeah, but each of year were warned to do cucumbers and more tomatoes and potatoes, tatoes. So anyway, that's what we're doing, and you're going. To head into the condo. The condo more history overt nice Thursday, Yep, tomorrow. My wife and I are going to the D Day dinner tomorrow night. Cool. And then she's going to attend the D Day Memorial celebration on Thursday or Friday. Huh. I will be at the river. So cool. Anyway, yep, moving on this day in history, This day in history, all right over. Nineteen eighty nine was the I didn't realize it was just for some reason, I thought that was a long time ago, that the tenem in Square. I feel like that was seventies. Why, but that in eighteen ninety is a long time ago. I know. But I was in high school when this happened. And that is six years ago. Oh god, hold on. Thirty five years ago. Thirty six years ago? Uh? Yeah, do you know what that is? What is square? Tut Square? That was China? Correct, And there was a protest and their government doesn't deal with protests very well. Communist uprisings, they don't, I mean uprisings in communist countries don't go well. So the tank came through and ran over. I don't know that he ran to stop. It stopped, but the guy kept standing in front of it. I don't know how they got him away from but I don't think they ran him over, not that I remember. So anyway, that was nineteen eighty nine. I will say this, I don't understand. I just I don't. I watched took Tak talk yesterday. A guy just going to class and they wouldn't let him through as a Jewish student, And I don't. I just don't understand, like in our day, in all honesty, if somebody, let's just say, and I mean this in all sincerity, if you were going to class at VMI and a group of them tried to stop you, are they stopping you? What has changed? If like somebody is losing a chin and. If I couldn't get through, I'm coming back with some others. Right, And I don't I don't see anything wrong with that. Yeah, we've got to stop with this whole thing of because you watched the TikTok sah if you touch me, Okay, let's let's figure out how this is gonna go down. In court. It's just it's sad. Anyway, you got. Anything, Yeah, I don't know what. I'm kind of getting fascinated about it. I saw. I guess it's in drama too. But there was this thing called Martha Mitchell effect. And so I think I'm fascinated by Watergate because I watched Tucker enough to know that Watergate was really the CIA and FBI coordinated to get rid of Richard Nixon. And it was an effort because he was doing what he could. He was going to Donald Trump, the CIA essentially where he was ousting the swamp is what his goal was, and he had landslide victory. So the event of Watergate happened in June of seventy two, the landslide happened in November of seventy two. The team that had won was part of the Watergate conspiracy. And then it was two years later that Nixon resigned. So during those two years is a lot of turmoil. Yep. So I saw that we remember the term deep throat. There was a guy that was hidden well in this day. In two thousand and five, Carl Earnstein and Bob Woodward announced who the deep throat guy was. Because he had died, and they felt like they could it was an FBI informant that told them everything they needed to know. Now, back in the eighties when this went on, all right, I'm sorry, and the seventies went on up to the two thousand and five, up to a certain point, everybody thought that Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein where he rose? Right, Yeah, man, I'm watching that show on the Martha Mitchell Effect going into drama a little bit, And I'm watching that show and Martha Mitchell was the wife of the Attorney general. The Attorney General was one of the ones that went to jail for Okay, so her husband was involved. She says he wasn't, and then she blames Richard Nixon. So that's why they have her on. But man, when I'm watching it, it's all the liberals that we know. There's Bob Woodward, there's Carl Bernstein's, there's that Helen Thomas. Do you remember that woman? Oh yes, the old woman Press Corps and Dan Rather. Okay, what else do you need to know? I mean, this was. How long had Bob Woodward been a journalist? I mean he was young, I mean he was really young. This was his first story. No kidding. Yes, wow. Now I've heard journalists say if you walk into your editor with this story, zero chance a new guy, I don't care if you bring it to him. Yeah, you're not getting the story. How does he a guy that's a new journalist whose previous job wasn't in intelligence? No kidding, look it up. Yeah, it'll scare you. So, from what I understand, you had two presidents that verbally came out and was going to either dismantle or revolutionize RFK, the CIA and Richard Nixon. Yes, I mean sorry JFK. Yeah, so oh excuse me. In Reagan, by the way, of the five guys that got caught for burglarizing, right, you're the I mean you're one of those guys. Is a member of the CIA. Yeah, you are so stealthy that you get caught. You were going to bug the Democratic That's what they said, right right, they left drawers open. Yeah, come on, Yeah, you ransacked the Democratic Party and going to put bugs in there. That sounds almost like they think we are. It almost sounds like putting a pipe bomb, yes, outside of the DNC, and yeah, in broad daylight and nobody getting arrested for it. Yeah, the Patriot Boys and their masks and kakis. Come on, I'm just telling you, man, I watch everything now. I believe what Sean Ryan said. Everything is a lot. Yeah, that's yeah. Anyway, that was my history. Yep.

God, we're getting a little rusty. We need to practice a little bit more. No, he was giving signals, going to practice some signals. It was one finger for scenes a little slower. How am I supposed to know that? All right, drama, I'm wrapping up Sopranos. Did you make it like from beginning to end? Yeah, I'm making it beginning to end. But I mean, you haven't skipped like seasons. No. I watched like two a night before I go to bid. That's awesome. Yeah, and it's so many, so much stuff I missed. You said this weekend, something that I am taking to heart. I don't know that I can trust anybody to be a friend that can't like Sopranos. Dude, Yeah, how do you That show is phenomenal. Yeah, it's well written, so good. There's so many little things. I never realized how funny they made it. Yeah, the little jokes, like, dude, there is I don't know who wrote sills part that dude is funny. Just some of the stupid stuff he says. Yeah, you just laugh every time he does it. I remember that and Breaking Bad or two of the shows that you keep thinking, God, how is he going to get out of this? You know what I mean? Oh my god, I just give up. And now that I know what kind of went on behind the scenes when they talk about not knowing who's going to get knocked off or killed or you know, some of that stuff, I now see, like scenes where somebody gets shot but they don't die. I look at it differently, like, did they negotiate a contract and they oh, I don't want to die? You know? Anyway, wrapping that up? And then of course Clarkston Farm, I am uh I found out something interesting. So on the latest season, right. Yes, Logan asked me, and I actually did have a couple of listeners text just started watching Clarkston Farm. Great recommendation. So Logan asked me, where do this guy get his money? Because his farms thousands of acres? Right car and driver writer. Yes, and then before that as a journalist, but as I'm googling trying to research him, he came from money. So his mother invented a teddy bear and Emma, you probably know who this is. Trent may not. I guarantee it don't, because they made two movies of this bear to close Paddington. I love that movie. Can you believe his mother was the one that invented Paddington and his first job was going around selling that door to door. I mean, it's crazy, I would buy it. But what's fun to watch is how crazy their policies are compared to hear. I mean, what's funny is along that lines didn't who's the guy that we like a turning point? Charlie Kirk. Yeah, he just went to England to talk about let's making great again. Dude, it's all you got to like. You wouldn't like. There's so much stuff, like he decides, and I'm not going to tell everything. I just want to tell this little story. He decides he wants to own a pubs. He now makes Hawkston Beer, so he wants a pub. Well, he does research and finds out that in two thousand there was a thousand pubs in his like within a two three hundred, four hundred mile radius whatever, and now that number is down to one hundred. So he's like, what's happening to these pubs? Well, it's hard just to make a pub work when it's just a pub. So what he's trying to do, because they're having issues with farmers, is he wants to make a pub where you can drink, but also a restaurant kind of similar to what we do here, but more just the restaurant can only be local farm stuff and he wants to make it affordable. So that was his mission. So he already told his manager, I'm not doing it in the town where we live because they've shut down everything I've done. I can't go to that council forget about it. So he finds something the next county over. I don't know what it's properly called, but I'm gonna say county bro. So he goes to the planning commission and dude, they're all like, yes, we love it, great idea. So he was buying a pub that had eight different owners in a ten year period and had failed, and so he tells them and they're all about it. But then it has to go to this next committee. Well guess who heads up the next committee. The same guy who heads up the committee in the other county. Oh no, goodd's yes, And all of a sudden everything is no, can't do it, can't help you not going to and it's just like and he's like, I don't understand. We're in a room where a restaurant has failed and we're giving him a plan to succeed, and there this is exact words. That's the problem. If it succeeds, it's going to be too much traffic. So you would rather have something fail in an empty building than to have success, right, it's crazy. That is a lot over the world we lived in. I mean, you try to develop in a lot of places, and that's right up my alley. You can't develop in a lot of places because they'd rather have not have you. Trust me, I know I'm living in one. Yeah. Speaking of which, that's exactly what I did today. I don't know if I told you this. Today. I went and met with the Secretary of Transportation. Yeah, I had to meeting with him. He pulled in the chief Deputy of ve Dot. Wow. They were really interested in the stories that I gave and were floored. Yeah. I don't think people realize. I mean when I gave them a examples of the decision making that keeps us from developing. Sure, and my story is backed up by the people in our area that give me the stories and everything too, not just mine. Sure, they were like, that can't be. So there's going to be hopefully it's rolling. Hopefully not rolling, but at least change. Well. I mentioned this to somebody the other day. I never want anyone to lose a job, change positions, or find a new way to help them. Since I've been alive, they have talked about a bypass around Charlottesville since I've been living. Oh yeah, it's fifty years. Yeah, and it hasn't happened, And there's no reason for it not to happen, right, There's no valid reason not to have it. The fact of the matter is the plan always that I've heard my whole life is if if that bypass comes through, they would put that by pass in and connect where twenty nine and four to sixty come Togetherell Campbell County and connect on the other side of Yellow Branch, and that would end up being an interstate from DC to Greensboro, which makes sense. Yeah, and oh my god, would that change if you could go seventy from there. Oh, it would be awesome. Charletsville just doesn't allow it, and there's no reason. So when I saw the Supreme Court decision that said judges can no longer stop based off environmental stuff federal projects, I'm thinking, ooh, can we actually get this done in Charlottesville now? So when you were mentioning that, I was like, Oh, next time you go, can you mention Charlottesville Just from me? My stuff is a little more basic comments and stuff. What's funny is when I mentioned that the people in Charlottesville. They all say the same thing. Would love it, but it ain't happening. Like that's the power that those people there have to shut down something that would benefit us. All. Well, the big point of Charlottesville is they know a bypass would kill business in Charlottesville, but would it. Yes, they do not want the Madison Heights effect to happen. But I'm going to push back on that because growing up Madison Heights was a crap hole. When the bypass came in, we've seen growth in Madison Heights. They were never building developments the way they are now. Well it's just now rebounding. But right, it. Definitely killed what was there at Madison Heights. It did, and so now it's more of a local thing. It just takes time for the development to come in. But Charlottesville loves the traffic of Charlottesville. They want you, they want the traffic coming through twenty nine. No, it's not good for us. It's miserable to them too. It's not fair. It's not fair, well except for the businesses. And that's what's really keeping it from happening. It's not it's not as much environmental as you know, it's more of a business. I'm not disagreeing with you, other than when you go down that that stretch. Yeah, there's more closed businesses today than I've ever seen. It's unfair to the rest of the state that have allowed bypasses. It's unfair to Madison Heights. It's unfair to Linksburg that has bypassed traffic that was built, to Danville that allowed bypassed traffic to be Everybody else has had the bypassed traffic built, but Charlettsville has the power to keep it from happening. That's the unfair part, my correct. Yeah, yeah, wow. All right, moving on, that's part of the charm. Charm. That's like the what I liked about the show. We have your arm, we have charming things. Well, the part with I'm getting up and walking around and getting stuff right, that's charming. The train coming through is charmed. Charm of the show. Charge it is charming, dude. You have got to watch on Netflix. I know everyone around me is too young to remember this, but the talenthow Murders has been number one or number two for the last two weeks. I need to watch it. It is so good because I'm telling you what's gonna piss you off. Okay, so I never knew the talenthow murders got solved, and they really didn't. But when you're watching the show, you're like, that's who did it? How can none of you see that? Oh? It just makes you infuriated, And they and they interview the guy that did it, and nobody is no one seeing what I'm seeing. So he never went to jail. They did what they did to Capone. He went to jail for something else. It is. I just could not believe the story. It was so good. But this is the reason. Okay, So there are things that have happened on our lifetime that, if you know, one thing affects the rest of your life. When you go to this, when you go to the airport, now you have to take your shoes off, right, And the reason is because a one dude, that shoe bomber guy that landed in Detroit changed our lives forever. Of course, the nine to eleven guys in TSA. I didn't know he was a part of that group. Wasn't he a part of that group? Yes? Okay, yeah, yeah, later, but he came later, right. It was to show that they could still do it. Oh, yes, right, even after that, So the TSA came in and they were frisking everybody, and they had metal detectors. And now you have to get there two hours before the plane flight. Correct, people don't know this, has no idea of this. But before nine to eleven, you could walk up five minutes before the flight. Do you remember those days? Well, just yes, you just walk in and go. That's right. Well, so obviously the bombing of nine to eleven changed everything. But the thing about tylan Olmers, that's the reason you can't get in to a bottle of pills. You got a because of the sinide. There was a cyanide poisoning of talentol. And if you look at the labels back then, it would say non child proof. That was the way they got around it. You just had to know there was not a child proof opening. Now you've got three things you have to go through to get to a talentol. It's so that I used to think this because there were sometimes where I could I'd get some man at a stupid prescription bottle or tileoo bottle. I'd want to throw it. Yes, you can blame this guy. Well, I used to always go old people take medicine. Yeah, how do they how do they get these stamped things open? That's cool for the train. That was charming because I'm right at the times. Yeah, no, I know what you're saying. That's the other thing I did recently see, which I think is the coolest thing. That you could do your prescriptions with a company that puts all your pills in one bag and it's labeled by day. Wow, it's smart. Oh, it's because I've said older people I have. Literally I'm at the age now where I have a pill for every day in the box where you got Sunday, I have that too. Are we all that old? No? But there are times where I'm like, oh, did I take my medicine? Yes, exactly, like and I can't imagine an older person what they go through. Have you ever got a shower and wondered did you wash your hair? Yes? No, I haven't. Let me tell you what this idiot did. I forgot about this on their tree. It's a little strong. Oh my god, I was so mad. Why do you get mad when I look down and you're gonna have when's the last time you've been to a golden corral? Years? Okay, we had these but we decided we wanted to go. And yes, it was just like I remembered it. Entertainment. Yeah, it was entertaining. Just the people there are a different breed. We're in West Virginia. Oh my, yes, it's on another level. Right, it was meth City. It was I don't I guess math, wouldn't you say math? And it has that smell the carpet like it's old dingy carpet, but. There in the middle it was right next to the hotel. Yeah, and plus I know it's entertainment there. So but I looked down at the receipt because Trent paid like he always does. Thank you, and you got the rooms? Yeah, but you then you venmo guilty about that. So then I look down and guess what it says? Seniors? Yes, I an idiot. I'm not old enough to get almost saving money. We both have white beards. This is crazy senior. Wait, how old a senior? Well, fifty five, I think. Is if I go to McDonald's and they give me a twenty five cent, I think you will. Now I'm throwing it out. I think you can. I think you can say you're a senior. A frosty I got discounts on your frostle God, alight on the sports, yeah, play them. I'm sorry. You to start putting the cutoff back on. This sheet today. Dude. We don't finish up with our guests after them, so we're good to God. There was something in sports I wanted to make sure you had on your list. Dang it, nastcar No anyway, dang it, I can't think of it. It was something obscure, all right. College baseball, Yes, you've sucked me in. Like God, it's just young kids. Just love them playing. You have always said I love college baseball better than the pros because they make mistakes and just natural their kids, but they also make incredible play and the crowds are for the college crowds phenomenal. Yeah, I don't know. Did you see You didn't happen to see the press conference of Little Rock after they lost to LSU. No, it was late. I give to bed too early. I thought it was one of the greatest things. The Arkansas coach Little Rock said, I want to personally think LSU, their staff, and the fans. This is an experience that we will never forget for the rest of our lives. They were a team with a losing record. They weren't supposed to be in the postseason, but they went on a run in their tournament and they gave LSU everything they could hand. They really did. But he's right, that's it. Like if you've ever seen or been to a night game at LSU baseball, yeah, it's a freaking night. I mean, it's twelve thousand fans from college baseball and Tennessee now expands their stadium because it's. Just the tenant. Obviously, I watched Tennessee for a reason that that has been primetime games where LSU has been a little bit later. So I haven't caught the end of theirs, but I love watching them play too. But man, Tennessee. I told Perry my son that I'm glad I'm a fan of Tennessee because if I wasn't a fan of Tenna, they would irritate me. They would weave be that team I just want to just beat. But man, they are so cocky and but and so the bat toss has turned into the bat spike because they're not allowed to toss the bat anymore. So now they throw it down like it's a football. Oh it's just so See. These are these are things that you and I enjoyed growing up. Yeah, when we saw it, if you showed up a picture, you got plunked. Yeah. And I think Tony comes from that old school cockiness. But baseball where within the means yeah sort of. Right. They like to get out of hand a little it. Sure he does, but I'm saying if the other team had hit one of his players, he would get pissed. But deep down, I think Tony would love it, Like this is baseball, this is supposed to be what it is. You don't hit somebody in the head, right, but yes, they deserve one in the back. So my son, he and I were texting during the game because he's in Nashville, and he texts me what the Wake Force coach had said, Yes, and then sends me the video. Did you see where they had to apologize? Yes, I did see that. I just come on, let it, let it be. It just ESPN shouldn't have showed it, right, No, you know what I mean. They showed it. Just let it go. But it was it was great. Oh yeah, and then it was great what happened, Yeah, with him jacking a home run. So the player that's real cocky for Tennessee, which several of them, but one of them's got eye black like he's the ultimate warrior. He is getting the crowd to stand up before he gets up to bat like and gets the crowd into us. Gets up to bat and the wake Forest coach caught says effing f F word. Yeah right, And so they mounted, and I'm like, see talking about the umpires, he talking about the kid. I'm assuming he's talking about the kid. Am I wrong on that? Or was he talking about he was talking about the kid? But then the kid jacks it out of there to take the lead. Oh man, it was so cool, just everything. I didn't care that the guy said that was it the wake Forest game? The night before, wake Forest had beaten Tennessee. Yes, okay, And I'm pretty sure this is what ended the game because I remember Logan and I laughing. The picture for wake Forest had this stance where he would just sort of rock. He's like their closer, right, you know how they are? They're crazy? Yeah, they're yeah nuts. Well, the Tennessee guy takes a time out, which he's allowed, but he's not getting back in the box. The picture refused to get off the mask. Yes, and the dude just was so cool. That's what I'm saying. It's a game within a game that you and I appreciate. Yeah, some fans are probably like, what is this is a stupid Yeah, Logan said, don't get off that mound. He would not, and good for him. Yeah, And he ended up striking the guy out and it. Was was it Tennessee Wake? Maybe I guess you're right, could be. I didn't remember it being that game, but it was still cool. That guy was not moving. I'm gonna be here. Well, I got if I had to be here twenty minutes. I'm not getting off this mound. And I think the umpire enjoyed it, like all right, this is kind of meat. Like the picture for Tennessee, they do the same thing. They go to call time out and he points to the coach like he doesn't say f you, but he might as well said that. Yeah, And then you know how people gather around the mound. He looked at all. His teammates and said, stay away from me. I'm ready to just go pitch, oh man. And I love it when they strike some money out and they go crazy, like you don't have to do it at the person, but go crazy. Yeah, go nuts. It's fun, but it's great. Super Regionals. Yes, Tennessee moves on. They got to go to Arkansas, LSU Arkansas. There's yeah, there's gonna be. Some Arkansas's number two in the country, aren't they. Well they may, but I mean Vanderbil's out. I don't think. Yeah, Vanderbilt maybe Texas was number two. Both teams are gone. Yeah, yeah, okay, it's gonna be a great matchup. Yeah, and LS she's got the hot Wake Force or West Virginia. That's gonna be. Man, imagine that cussing going on in that crowd. It's gonna be nuts. Yeah, you're gonna watch the crowd as much a you're gonna watch the game in that one. Yeah. And I guess it starts this weekend, right Friday Saturday. So there's Friday Saturdays and then there's Saturday Sundays. If you need Yeah, okay, And so. The Friday Saturdays will go Sunday if necessary, and the Saturday Sundays go Monday if necessary. So they're split half an. Haf go when does West Virginia play? Wait a minute, are you rooting for West Virginia? Yeah? Get out. I don't care what what marked? Oh you're mad because she would choose West Virginia. Yeah, I'm torn in that one. I mean, you are at l s U and I love Logan and he went to LSU, but my friends also went to WBU. So I have a hard time. What part of West Virginia Beckley, That's where I broke down. That's where Trent purchased a forty two dollars candle at the damn back. It was to donate for the arts. Is that her name? Anyway? Uh? Do you watch College bas On? Ye? Dude, it's so good. Oh and then so LSU will start Saturday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday. So I had one of my workers text me and then I talked to him the next day. His in his hotel room. Whenever he hit the channel, it wouldn't turn one up, it would go three stop and it would not do anything. Different that would I couldn't breathe, so he said. He literally held the button down and then let go and it was like a like Prices, Right, whatever it lands on, that's what I'm watching. And it landed on girls softball. He said, it was incredible. It was the Oklahoma Texas Tech. Yes, that went down with a girl from Oklahoma Jacks the two run homer to tie it up, and he's like, of course this is over that, you know, the favorite Jackson home run to tie at the end. Yeah, Now Texas Tech comes back and ends up winning it. Well, I thought that's what was going to happen to Tennessee. So what was I so mad at the end of that game. So there's so much that goes on in sports college kids. So Tennessee loses to you, I mean, UCLA ties it, right, and the girl misses the plate. It's just like, she misses the plate. She should have been called out. She should have been called out, and they didn't. But then they said she missed the plate. This is the empire. She missed the plate and she was given help to get back to the plate, which should be an out, but we're not allowed to review it. So she's safe. It's dumb. She should have been out. God ball, don't lie. Tennessee ends up winning. The next night, the boys are playing. The kid scores the go ahead home run in like the fifth or sixth inning, right he steps on the plate. His teammate grabs him and pulls him back and tells him step on the plate again. It was in honor of the girls the night before. Oh that was so cool. Yeah that's awesome. Yeah yeah, but love it all right. Moving on to NASCAR, Yeah, and we'll get to her picks later on with Carolina Kevin. Oh yeah, I got my bets ind already. But it was a pretty good But it's a pretty good race. Nashville is where they were last week, wouldn't you say? Yeah, Ryan Blaney ends up winning. Good for him. I love he's a crowd favorite. I think I went to bed because he was dominating so much and I was exhausted from Greyhound weekend tracks? Did you so you didn't? You didn't watch the after jos of r ended up finishing second. Yes, and pretty big. How close was he the. First he was he was tracking, but he wasn't. Okay, so he just was a good second. Yeah, oh yeah, Yeah, that's two good weeks in a row for him. Yeah. And Denny Hamlin talked about, you know, fist pumping with him afterwards until he found out and listen, Denny Hamlin sometimes drives me nuts. He literally said, yeah, I got out and fist bumped him, and then I realized he wrecked Ricky Stenhouse. Oh yeah, and he said with no remorse or something, and he said, you know, it's just like Chastine. Sooner or later, you're you know, he hasn't done me the wrong way. But if he does, Denny, you did nothing to Chastaine. That was the whole thing, don't you remember yea, he talked it but never did anything. And now he's saying host of R should apologize, but he didn't. But if he does it to me, you know he'll know what's coming. Okay, nothing, hoos of R is great. You just say, Denny, Now, I love host of AR. Yeah, and I don't mind him running over people. Stop acting like Ricky Stenhouse hasn't wrecked anybody. Why didn't Ricky punch him? And that's the race that he punched Kyle busch Y Young exactly. Yeah, oh idiots. So yeah, what was interesting is you had said to me, I think a couple of nights before that, you were amazed that Hendricks had people in the all like four drivers in the drivers or in the playoffs points wise, Pence, He's got all of their cars in the playoffs with wins. Wow, I can't believe that three cars or four cars. They have three, but the fourth is the Wood Brothers because they're out of the shop, so they have all four with wins. That's unbelievable. Uh, they're at Michigan. It's not really a track that I like. I know, it seems like they can make that track better. There was a time where it was awesome. Then you remember, remember it went to a stretch it was nothing but fuel. Yeah, I hope this isn't what this is fuel mile. It's stupid. Do you like the Prime coverage versus the Fox coverage? I do, but I don't like. I've heard the gripes that you have to pay. Obviously you do have to pay, yeah, because it's Prime. Very little commercials. Well that's the thing that they're saying. Look, if I've got to pay, why do I have to watch commercials? Well, I mean it doesn't compensate for all that's subsidizing your payment. I hear them. I don't care, now I do. I did have the problem with it buffering, buffering, Yeah, try to remind it to it. I keep thinking it's mine, but then when I put it on my phone, it's Amazon. It's not me. It is because I know people are saying, what must be your WiFi or whatever, but no, it's not. It's because it just like when when Prime tried to host football. There's too many users. It just is and Prime doesn't have the stream. I mean it's yeah, we're not stupid. Yeah, I don't mind. I know it's going to get better. That's the reason they're building these sinners. Yeah, and I didn't know that that. I mean, you're eating up all of this whatever it's out there. Yeah, and they're building these sinners to do that, because that's the problem. I've enjoyed the coverage. You know, I'm not a big Litart fan. He just drives me up the wall his shrill. He was better last race than he was the first race. Maybe he's reading what I'm posting about him. But you know, I have noticed Earnhardt isn't screaming like he did it NBC correct, So maybe somebody's telling him not to do that anymore. But man, targ just discussion. Yeah, f one, you McLaren seems to be just dominant. I don't know if you saw the Max for stapping issue and. He's a nutcase. He is a nutcase, But I don't dude, you can't. These are open wheels NASCAR. He could do that NASCAR. I understand that, but I don't understand why. I'm I can see his frustration, but not with what he did. So I don't know if you saw, but like the announcer literally said, Russell's going to get a penalty. He literally ran Max off the track, which he did. But then Christian tells Max, hey, you need to give that position back, and he's like, why he ran me off the track? And he goes, Max, just give it back. So I Max was just pissed at that point. Yeah, but I'm curious because I never saw them give any penalty to Russell, right, but they did end up giving maxipenalty because when he went and give it back, he ended up swerving and hitting him. Well, you make it sound like you didn't mean to hit him. Oh no, no, he meant to hit him. Yeah, you can't do that in open wheels. No, I agree, I'm agreeing with you. What I'm trying to say is I would christ want to tell him to give the position? Part I don't understand either. I haven't heard of why they said that, but. There's something going on that there's something going on there. I think more deeply than just yea because this was his one more penalty and he gets a race suspension. Yeah, not good. He ended up in NASCAR. He's like the. Who's the guy that got all the technicals in the NBA. All the time? Oh yeah, like Rashid Wallace. Yes, he's the Rashid Wallace of of Formula one. McLaren's off this week or McLaren f one off this week. I have been seeing some Cadillac testing. Oh man, that car looks good. Yeah, I'm really excited. Yes, I hope they just don't stink it up. I know, don't be a hass right, come and be a at least be Williams this year Williams, you know what I mean? Being the fourth or fifth or six? How about k They had a good weekend, right yeah, finishing fifth Huchenburg. How do you do that with it? They were dead last Yeah? Moving on to the knicks man in the NBA. How dumb are they? I don't I just there's no justification for firing Thibodeaux. I haven't seen any reaction yet. Does or do other people think like we do? Or? Yeah, even Stephen A All of them are just like, I don't go, what do you? What are you. If your reasoning is he can't get you over the hump, you're the next got you to the finals that you hadn't been to in twenty five years. Yeah, I don't get that either. To the Eastern Conference Finals, there was a little bit of controversy at the ceremony when the Pacers won. They gave away the trophy, Yeah for the MVP of the East, and it wasn't Haliburton. Yeah. I can't believe that is something's not right about that. Yeah, Emma, they were literally giving away the trophy and they said this year's conference finals MVP, and he started to walk up to the front and they called out a different name. Yeah. See I com Yeah, I don't get that either. Where I didn't watch enough of series to know. Oh, I know the highlights were Halliburton. Yeah, so. Anything else? Hey the NBA Finals. Okay, so you've got okc yes against the Pacers. Neither team has won an NBA finals, correct, Okay, And don't give me the old ABA days. That's stupid stuff. But here's trivia. Who was the last NBA team that won their first final? Dude, Emma, do you have an idea trivia the last NBA team to win a final being their first final victory Golden State. It would have been Golden State. That's the second place answer, Toronto Raptors. Oh, yeah, in twenty nineteen. I forgot about that. Oh, I was going to say the second No, No, I'm wrong. It was twenty years before that the last time a team had won their first San Antonio Spurs. Oh, because Golden State won back in the seventies once. So yeah, so this doesn't happen very often, and both teams, I don't think that's ever happened that both teams have never won the finals. Didn't We used to have a team, wasn't it? The Norfolk and Virginia Squires. Virginia Squires, Yeah, I wonder why they never went to the NBA. Trivia. Do you know who their superstar was? Moses Malone, doctor j. Yeah. Interesting, Yeah, the Sixers guiding. They played in the Norfolk cost coat I'm pretty. Sure got me. Damn yep. Neat Insurance in Bedford and David Honekirer, local state farm agent.

Yeah, all right, go ahead, cut one. Concerned about rising temperatures on plattered earth heated up at hearing here in Washington today. For years, scientists have theorized about the dangers of the so called greenhouse effect, the warming of the Earth's atmosphere due to the burning of coal and oil, and in recent months, as David Colhane reports, research has uncovered facts to support that theory. Facts many scientists quez at the temperature of the Earth's atmosphere has been rising over the past one hundred years, that the great sheets of pack ice in Antarctica are more more rapid rate than previous apprecire. Finally, that the sea level has been rising with increasing swiftness over the. Past forty years. Watch. If these scientists are correct, about twenty five percent of Florida would be flooded, along with. Low lying areas all over the world. Lnment changes. Click back vid Does Florida look like this today? This was nineteen eighty two. Look at that and stop scaring us. It's his forty three years right? Oh wow? Yeah, four y three years later from nineteen eighty two, we're still above sea level. Yes, but here's the thing. No, they he starts his telecast with facts, We're going to give you facts. Well, how do you give facts that aren't true? I mean, that's what Florida looks like today. If you were a good producer, that's when you would hit the button of Joe Biden. We choose truth over facts. She's just kidding, She's getting there, just kidding. Wan. We get our own studio, that's right, one of these days, full time production. But I mean you look at that. First of all, how would the We've said this all long for those. That can't see in the day rather news event in twenty twenty five, because of the facts of science, Florida is about a third of what it is now that now Miami's submerged. Completely gone under sea level. I mean, if if Florida was the shape of my thumb, it should be both sides of a third of it is. The only things left is Orando. It's just what everything is swamp in the middle. That's it. But here's what, how does the sea level rise? Exactly? I got facts for you on that too. We remember the mister science. Well that's what I'm saying. There's no way if the ice melts, it doesn't rise. Okay, you're gonna keep playing. You wanted to keep playing it? No, no, I just do you want to hear? Yeah, it's so factual. Hung with low lying areas all over the world, climate changes could produce widespread disruption of agriculture. The American farm belt might be too dry. It might be and corn crops would have to move to Canada. We just blame the odorless, colorless carbon dioxide gas dammit for these potentially dangerous changes around the planet. It is the greenhouse effect. The gas allows sunlight to filter down and warm the earth, but like the glass of a greenhouse, the carbon dioxide tends to trap heat so that it cannot rise into space. The scientists maintains the smokestack burning for one hundred years have produced more and more carbon dioxide and helped overheat the Earth. Now some political leaders endorse the demands for more CO two monitoring stations like this one. In Hawaii, and they are still operating. Of the scientists that Reagan administration budget cuts at a time when they Reagan cut sitive answers. We are not doing our freaking. That we should be doing to determine whether or not these scientists who were so alarmed are correct in their assessment, and. What they find out will affect the lines and fortunes of millions of people, the very survivors. Of the sound of the oceans behind them. David Colhane's CBS News New York. The Very Survival. Okay, so I was young enough nineteen eighty two, I'm what twelve years old, I'm young enough to know bullshit, Like I don't know how I was so lucky in my life to know that. And you know, Rush Limbaugh really to the roof for me to know that other people knew. I mean, we're saying what I had. That's why people loved Rush. People just sucked up to that. No one else was saying anything like that. Okay, this year, do you remember the news story Antarctica has more ice than we have recorded. God, they've got more ice. So Antarctica has more ice than what they ever expected to have this winter. Okay, shouldn't I have less water at my beach? Yes, if there's more ice, just by this formula, suck it up, it should be less water that I have at my beach, correct, is it? No? Of course not, So they just man, how does how is there no one just there to slap them in the face or just keep playing these videos. Yeah, I would just if I was a congressman and they were having these hearings as they still do today, I just go, wait a minute, click. Yeah, they told us that forty three years ago. Yeah, nothing's changed, dude. I remember writing reports in middle school on acid rain. I do too, you know, Oh yes, I always go like I went to a grocery store, am I at the beach and the lady says, paper are plastic? And I said paper, and uh, plastic, I said, And she looked at me strange, and I said, uh. When I went to school, paper was no, no, yeah, you're killing the forest trees. And she looked at me like I'm crazy, And I'm like, I'm dead serious. Like you weren't allowed to use paper when I was growing up. Yeah, plastic was a savior, absolutely, And now they charge you for plastic. Yeah, and they want you to paper because of the turtles. All of our plastic goes to a damn landfill. How in the hell was the turtle? There's not there's not any plastic coming from your house is going out in the ocean. Unfreaking believable idiots. It is. It's just stupid and it's never ending. That's the problem. No, they just come up with another term and went from acid rain to the change the global it's off of it. Yeah, oh god, all right. Unfortunately, more terrorist attacks are happening in the US, the Colorado. I don't know if you saw the guy lighting people on fire. I didn't see it. I haven't seen any video that. I don't really know that I can watch that. This is why I do encourage people to take lessons in carry weapons. I mean, somebody squirt something on means, get ready light me on fire. Guess what? Did I see a correct video? Or was it a fake where someone took a broom handle to him? I don't know. I wish they would have an immigrant. By the way, was he allowed to be here? No? Man, I'm telling you those stories. Thank god we have a press secretary that answers things. Listen. I will tell you. I'm a little worried because the girl came on Sean Ryan, who literally said these things were going to happen. She even said how that's what's scary. She said, they're going to take cars and more people down in the streets. They're going to light people on fire, They're going to plant bombs. Did you see in Gatlinburg the car accident. Yeah, that has anybody said what that was from somebody? What I read was they think it could be medically related, like guy had a heart attack or something. Yeah. What scares me the most is she said that there's another attack on airliners that are coming, that they have developed vest that are not detectable through the airports, and their bombs suicide. Bombers just hate people win, I hate, and. I I know. But she said that we know where they came from and how they got here. It came from the border. Okay, So anytime until Trump has changed everything right his first term, every time that there was a killing, they always blamed rhetoric. Even during the Biden years, they were blaming it Trump's rhetoric. Correct. Should you not blame this guy that did this in Colorado on Harvard? Of course, shouldn't you blame Harvard? Yeah, the one thing you blamed the Biden administration. The one thing I wish the founding fathers had figured out is we got the freedom of speech and the right to bear arms Somewhere in between there. There should have been the right that we don't have to listen, Like you got the right to speak, but we have the right not to listen because if you pay attention to what's happening. The left always his freedom of speech, right, But what's that got to do with you stopping me from going to client? Where is that in the constitution? Right? I don't have to listen to you. Just what I mean and what we've been saying is I mean, I like I wallow in their uh screaming, you know what I mean, Like I am enjoying that they're losing and they're grasping at everything that they can grasp onto. Yeah, but I just I mean, we just got to tune it out, tune all the screaming out, and just do we do? But we're fortunate to live in an area where we don't necessarily have to deal with it yet. Well, I mean it's literally I mean, you could be at the D Day Memorial when something could happen. I know, That's what I'm saying. I don't I don't like it. Like when we would see Richmond, they would put people across the interstate. Again, how's that freedom of speech? Yeah? It's against the law. Arrest them, That's what I say. At least we have people now that do get arrested. Amen. So anyway, Uh, don't forget Friday D Day Memorial. Glena can to be there. We'll be delivering his speech. I'm sockering, not going well. My brand wants to go to the river dig the potatoes on Saturday. I'm not going either, all right, as Ashley is our patriot, they will go in our place, win win win. Thinks we're gonna win, win, win, and we're gonna make America great again. Well, I used to play golf a little bit. That gave me so I don't know, but it seems to be quite a dangerous sport in retrospect. I try and eat properly. I try, I do the best, and I try and I do, but but but proper hamburgers. But I like perhaps all of the wrong food. But then I say, does anybody know what the right food is? People lecturing me for years, Oh, don't eat this, don't eat it. They're gone, they have passed away long ago. And here I am. So, I'm not sure I want to make too many changes. That's a good point. How can anybody try. And this is what I'm talking about. The liberals just screaming just absurd things. How can anybody listen to that guy and try to equate cognitive problems like Biden had? It's crazy? Fly Oh god, I saw her, your favorite Jean Claude Pierre Blinky has left the Democrat Party. Oh my god, where's she going? She didn't say, but she's leaving the Democrat Party and writing a book. What does that mean? That just means you're trying to make money because you're broke. Yeah, nobody's listening to you no more. Somebody's going to donate towards so she can write a book. Yep, she won't write a book that's truthful. All right, Moving on to air Mount Rushmore. Yes, so instead of Top ten this week, we're doing a Mount Rushmore wor. Yeah. What I got to notice in is has gotten pretty popular on TikTok, the people giving Mount Rushmore's. So we're kind of doing a gimme. Yeah. The first one is the Mount rush More of Quarterbacks NFL Quarterbacks. Now. I can't wait to see how this these go. Mine is a little bit different than yours, because no, it's not. I want to because I'll be able to tell by your answers. Yeah, and over the period of the next several weeks. Yea of how your algorithm is in choosing. Well, I can't wait until we have listeners think about the person we missed. Oh yeah, that's gonna happen. Mount Rushmore is hard. So yeah, we're doing a mount Rushmore plus Trump plus one. Yeah, Trump is our fifth. That's right, head, All right, so let's start with yes mine, okay, and then we'll we'll get Emma's You didn't put your Trump one? I see on your list here? One, two, three, four? Oh I didn't. You couldn't get to five? Oh well I can by the time I get through my list off, Okay, it gets five. Yeah, all right my number one? Does it have to be number one. Or just I mean that's kind of the way I normally think of it, But it doesn't have to be. But I'd also like to say it's the people of our lifetime. Yeah right, I mean we're not picking correct art star. Yeah, so I would say Joe Montana. He was my number one head. It's the first head. He's George Washington to me. So well, I'm not going to go any reasons why Joe Montana, John Elway. Why wouldn't you go into reasons because. I want to see what your algorithms is, by your by who you choose, not just today but over a period of time. I can kind of tell why you choose certain people. I'm confused. I just want to see. Okay, all right, go ahead. So mine is Joe Montana, John Elway, Tom Brady, and Peyton Manning. I got the exact four. That's exactly my mount Rush Wall. Now my fifth would probably be Eli. What he was pretty incredible. I know you don't like this guy. I mean I would pick Troy Aikman before I would pick Eli. I forgot about Troy. He was yours. He did win three. See, I do value championships. There are some people that I mean, I don't. So my fifth is because mine is the trump head. Mine's the wild card. It doesn't necessarily, but it's who I liked. Brett Farv Oh, he is my guy more so than just winning championships. He changed the style of play. There's no doubt about that of making a gun slinger without Brett farv Not that the guy's great in either, but who's got Tampa Bay that we like the guy that was at Oklahoma that went to the Browns, Baker Mayfield, Baker Mayfield. Yeah, yeah, you know what I mean? Yeah, hell yeah, yeah, definitely Johnny Manziel, Right, yeah, so I could Yeah, I. Could see that we've we both have forgotten. Uh the current quarterback. Oh yeah, it's also he's still so young, he hasn't finished up. I don't know that I could break him into those five. I don't know that I would put yet you're talking about the Kansas City guy. The fact that we don't can't, neither one of us right now, I can't. It's another reason why we're getting the old timers. Meal a golden Kraal. All right, Emma, who you got? I have three she's not old enough to get. You should watch her at first. One to be Jim Plunkett, Mom Brady Lamar, I have Tom Brady and Paint Manning on there. Tom Brady of course, and then I have I do. Have Patrick Mahomes. I know he's still young, but that's him. I'm also young. So nobody's won three championship. Yeah, I mean, but who are you going to knock off? Yeah? Just add another head. John Elways something else. There's some greats that I'm forgetting. Dude, there's a guy that's not on would never make anybody's top five, but I absolutely loved him as a quarterback. Was Warren Moon. Oh yeah, gosh, he was just so accurate. He just never got to win. There's a guy that people talk about, but I never thought he was that guy, and that's Steve Young. I like Steve Young. I would like that category, but a. Lot of people put him in a great category. He's in the cumber bun category. If he got the heads up here, he's down a little bit. He's because it's not like he came in like a Brett Favre did, to a losing franchise and took him to a championship. Yeah. He came on the tail end of Joe Montana's career. Yeah, and then lost and finally got the one. Yeah, Terry Bradshaw, we didn't put Oh you know, he's got four. It's a little bit I would before my time. Yeah, he was just at that edge, but I knew he was really good. Yeah, we should do sports broadcasters and he might make Yeah, studio broadcasters. Maybe moving on, Have I have it? You got three? Minutes. Did you like that? Just kidding? Did you like doing the the Mount Rushmore's what's our next week's going to be? Oh? We could have people texas ideas, Yeah, Mount Rushmore ideas. You can put it on Facebook. Does it have to be people, No, it. Could be subjects like top Mount Rushmore of basketball or football games that you can remember. Mount Rushmore college podcasts all four. Good one are Sinking Food Yeah, Mount Rushmore of Food. Yeah. Any of that we'll seek with the fans, say, Emma, we'll. See what they But you know, there's all kinds of the Mount Rushmore of college basketball coaches. There's just so many of those things that you could do that I see a lot of people post and it gets a lot of commentary on X When somebody does it, it gets a ton of comments. You could do A one I've seen recently is Athletes of All Time. Yes, that's a really good one I've seen recent and I. Know on yours it would be Kaitlyn Jenner. What that whole transgender thing? Oh my god. Although Kaitlyn Jenner is on our side on that, did you know that she doesn't want transgenders competing against girls either? Correct? I? Know, all right, are we gonna do have at it today? I'm waiting on you. I just get it too. Three things to say. God, bless our troops. God, bless America stock God. Every week on NASCAR, I watch the startup of a race and people try to do it like a cool startup, but nobody has that. I don't know. I thought Heth and them were good. Heck, Seth was decent. They were good. Yeah, they were not the mount Rushmore of intros. We could do that, all right, Man, you got to listen to this lady. This is your typical Target customer who is mad about gay pride months not being in her target anymore. Which I haven't stepped in Target since the day I walked in there and they were doing all the pride. I am this close to getting rid of the nets because their logo now is the gay pride logo. It's just man' in my face for God's sakes, right, all right? So listen to this lady cuts. In in my Target that used to have the pride section. It's now all USA. Yay. It's it's an American summer. Except for tourism, because tourism is down because no one wants to come here USA. First of all, my dad serves the military, and I'd love to be really proud of this nation, but it's hard. To be proud of it under Donald Trump. But hey, you know, while you're here, pick up a USA bikini. You know, why not. Show your dad's proud. Yeah. Target's really taking this anti DEI thing to another level. Dude, that's who you online date now, that's who's available. That right there. There's a reason, That's what I'm saying. She said, my dad served in the military, k Lee, And that's your patriotism. Like, I don't get it. Like, first of all, here's what I've always said in her her comment of tourism. Yeah, try your gay pride stuff in another country. Yeah, like they don't. They don't not do it. They kill you. Yeah, Like I don't understand when they when they say that crap. And listen, you know what, she doesn't have to look at that face. I can't even look at you the face. Let emma look at that. That's right there is just. In the Does she realise fourth of July is literally in summer. It just finished Memorial Day, Like Memorial Day to July fourth, you should have that stuff. Out, Like, first of all, have we forgot what retail is? It would be weird if they didn't. It's a reflection on what customers buy. What it should be, yes, not what they not some political statement. Yes, you're not putting out USA stuff for political statement. The stand that I talked about, there was no one going up to that little rainbow tiger. Of course it says diversity on the shirt, but they would put it so that was the first thing you saw in Lynchburg. I don't want to see it. Tuck it in a corner somewhere if you want your section, but stop putting it right there where me and my kids walk it through every single day, Like, quit going I've been in there in five years. The same thing within NATS like what maybe three? Why would you do that for the whole month the were hockey went through that whole thing of Yeah, but why right, if you want to do something, well, first of all, why are you doing anything at all? Yeah? What do you do the other months? Right? Do a military month? Right? Well, we do military every day. OK, but why are you changing your logo? I get it, I know all right, listen to how this lady asks this question and I can't remember how it went. Oh it's okay, man, I love this guy. There's some people that are becoming superstars that I didn't know who they were. This Secretary of Interior guy Bescent. You know what I'm talking about. The guy, he stays very calm. Love him, God, he is so smart. Listen to how she phrases the question and listen to his answer. Cut fifteen. He is there will either be less inventory or things at higher prices, or both. Mart when we were here in March, he said there's going to be big inflation. There hasn't been any inflation. Actually, the inflation numbers are the best in four years. So why don't we stop trying to say this could happen and wait and see what does happen. Man, I'm telling you, they phrase those questions all the time. They do it all the time with stuff like Congress is saying, okay, that's what they did the other day to one of these guys. Congress is saying, okay, start listening the way they phrased the question. Congress is a building. Congress is a body who in Congress is saying, stop making it sound like everyone in Congress is saying this quote. People, when you ask a question, stop saying some say who says So that's the way she phrased that question is hey, Terras is faith and he just sits there and he says, hey, in March, you wanted to talk about inflation, all of them and tars hasn't done anything. So now you just switch what you ask about to something else of alarm, correct, because it used to work, Brian, It used to work in two thousand and eight. I remember going down the road and you know what words they were using in two thousand and eight when Obama was running against McCain. It was the end of George Bush's year. You could not listen to NPR, you could not listen to ABC News, NBC News. On the radio. Every day you would get this word depression, depression is coming. We were going into a recession. And you remember McCain stopped the campaign. Yeah, we didn't have so media like we did, right, Thank god we get to watch these things. Yeah, okay, this is why they're banning TikTok. All right, listen to how smart this guy is. This is not your normal news outlet. This is a guy that's giving you facts and he's wearing a West Virginia Mountaineer shirt cut twenty. Trump's economic numbers and his economy are just absolutely stunning. What just came out now for April's gonna knock your socks off. Let me just start. This is the greatest four months start to any year that we have had in decades on record. And MSNBC and all the other libtard media they can't even spend these numbers. It is that phenomenal brand new economic indicator. Show inflation is down, incomes your up, and the trade deficit is narrowing, shattering economists expectations once again. Now whenflation rate slipped the two point one percent in April, lower than expected, that this is just reported by CNBC, lower than expected. Analysts expected two point three, two point four, it's two point one. Basically, President Trump has brought prices down like he's promised. But get this, here's the kicker. Income is up. Personal income increased by point eight percent in April, almost triple expectations. These are powerful numbers. Up six percent in January, zero point seven percent in February, up a half of percent last month, now up point eight percent this month. This is a great four month start Trump's first one hundred and twenty days unbelievable. Okay, yeah, stop there, here's what sea. So it's just what I'm saying. Man. They used to have all the news. They controlled the news, they controlled the narrative, they would say what they needed to say. We have people, actually, and it's controlled by how many people are watching this guy? Right? This is how he reaches my algorithm. Our stuff doesn't reach him yet until enough people watch. Thank you, uh Emma for getting us on TikTok. Yeah, we'll get five thousand? How many? I mean, how cool is that that we got people that will watch those clips and then make comments. God, the comments are so funny and I refuse to jump in, Like I do not want to jump I'm not going to jump in. I just like reading them. It's fun to read them. But how cool is this? This is why they wanted to ban TikTok because these smart people like this give you the actual facts of things. Yep? Could he be lying? If he did, he wouldn't be as popular as he. Was, right? John Frederick Rank All right, so is that his name? Yep? For real? I mean he's a Virginia guy. I used to listen to a show. Are you kidding me? I've never heard seen that guy before in my life that I can recall. Yeah, he's he's actually really good. He kind of gives you the inside scoops of what's going on in the Republican Party. Yeah, kind of breaks stuff that probably isn't supposed to be broken. H A really sharp guy. Yeah, yeah, Okay, is there any better guy? Is Kevin coming in? Do you want me to six forty? Okay? All right? Is there anybody better than this guy? Like? Bessett is great, but I think this guy has moved to the top of my fans of the people that come on the media. How he answers cut twenty five. To endure the ten years of Communist persecution that he, his family, is, business associates, and his friends were subjected to. Watching him now being able to out maneuver the left every single day, the ten steps ahead of them at all times, just demonstrates how much they miscalculated by coming after him, because they've now made him far stronger than they could have ever possibly imagined. I've never seen. Any leader more determined and resolved to do the right thing whenever anyone brings him a problem. Set. He always just says, we need to do what's right for the American people. I don't care what they say about me. I don't care what they do to me. I don't care what I have to endure. We're going to do what's right for the American people. And that's what you're seeing every single day. The first term of President Trump was the most successful president see that we have ever seen. But the second term is to find even the highest expectation of the American. People have ever had. Stephen Miller, dude and I listen. I the one thing that we've always said about Republicans that bother us the most is the debt. Yes, that they don't seem to handle that. Yeah, but let me say something I didn't know. If you're a Republican and you yes, we need to handle the debt, and I'm agreeing one hundred percent. Don't be like the Democrats and give me fake numbers. Yeah. I'm watching Beset the other night, and I had no idea that when the CBO puts out the numbers and they said that it was going to increase the deficit, Yes, that that was taking under consideration, that the tax cuts would not be extended. Yes, not the new tax cuts of even lower taxes. That was assuming that all tax cuts went away. Yeah, and that revenue wouldn't be generated. Well, I mean that's not real. I know that infuriates me as well. But at least we have people willing to go up there and fight and tell us that. I agree, but don't quote the CBO when you know they're giving us false information. Yes, I saw who's the lady we love Levette that replaced Blinky. Yeah, that she mentioned the CBO. The people that are the CBO, ninety percent of them have donated to the Democratic Party. I mean, if that's who's over there, clean house, right, you know. I mean you and I have always said, yes, we got to control this, but I mean, just give me the facts. Don't lie to me. Yeah, which really sucks because you would think math is not influenced, but it most definitely is influenced. When you know the formula and you can change the variables in the formula, yeah, and that's what you do. Then you can make it look like how you wanted to look. So I agree. I like that you like Thomas, love them, and I like Rand Paul as well, love them. But Here's what I will say. The biggest frustration I had when I was on my short period of town council. Don't be the person that just votes, know, come up with a better bill, but are either one of those telling us what we should do right. Eventually they've got to be like here's what I'll say. The difference between them and Matt Gates at Gates did it. Yeah, he didn't just sit by and say this isn't good. He said, no, we need to change in leadership, and I will sink everything to get it done. Yeah, you sure do. I agree with that. I do. I am glad that we have people and if you have Democrats now pointing out this is what I said, the problem is going to be. You've got Elon must telling you where fraud is. Don't pass a bill that has more fraud because now you've given the Democrats, so don't do it correct. So I'm glad that we are saying as conversations. I'm glad they're having them. I hope it. But like you've said from the beginning. But this is how bills are supposed to be legislated. Get it done right. That's the part I'm so tired of stop telling me that you're going to save us money and then make a bill that's higher, or give me the real truth on the numbers. Yep, Yeah, listen. I like that they're arguing. I love that Levitt says they're wrong because that little pantsuit lady that did the debate on NBC where our CNN, I guess is NBC where Trump called her said you're a nasty one. Remember that? God, I love that. Where she asked Levitt, she said, so you've got Ram Paul and Senator Rob Johnson saying that they can't vote for it because taxes are the debt is going to increase. Elon Musk is saying this is a horrible bill. Are you saying they're wrong? God, it is such a just horrible question. You know, you're trying to foster hostility in the question itself. Love it didn't blink man. She said, yes, they're wrong. They're using the facts of the CBO, and then those numbers are not right, and we've got someone that will tell you what is right. I thought it was a good answer. But if they can argue and come up with a better bid, exactly, that's what we want. Exactly, that's what you should. I'm okay with that. And if the Democrats would participate, yeah, we might actually end up with a decent bill, right. I know you're telling me that there's not one single Democrat that can say that they could vote for this thing, So it's politics. I will be happy when this gets through. If you can tell me that the debt has decreased, that's all I really want. I'll give you year one in transition, but year two, three and four you got to get going. Like a loose tubes. Why am I Denters in the ice train? Caroline on camera. That good afternoon, Kevin, because it's Wednesday night. Pump the pump, mask to pump the bee g's and all you college students play your Oige's my man, Oh. Nothing much, I said your other rap earlier. Yeah, you weren't listening. Always give youato tomatoes and corn beans, green green beans? Stringing? Did you did you actually say it yourself? You tried. I can only do that, That's all I can do. Oh, I don't know words to music. I'm the worst guy like that name that tune thing. There's no way I'm the worst singing singer ever, like even music. I know, I can't do the words. Kevin. Do you have Amazon Prime, Yes, so you're able to watch the race. I watched the last two races and I'm gonna watch it. Again this moun Do you like the Amazon coverage? Yeah, I mean it's a whole lot better. I think I would say better too overall. Yeah, there's some stuff that they're trying. That I like. I like the announcers of Fox, I really do. I've always like Mike Joy. I think Kevin Harvick has made that so much better. Oh yes, but all the cartoons and the production man, they missed so many things, the rex and all that stuff. They just do well. Probably missed a little bit this weekend too, and now now I got busted for it. But there'll be a car in the wall and they just had to describe what happened. Yeah, it can happen tracks a long way around. If you had to pick a driver, Kevin, that was the biggest disappointment of the year, who would that be this year? Like that? You had high expectations. Elliott, Chase Elliott, he's fourth and point it's like fourth in points, I know, but he has been the disappointment. And that kid had won and seems like forever I. Was thinking Keselowski, He's like thirty seconds. Yeah, that's that's nuts. I just keep saying it's give. That's funny because he's my long shot pick this weekend already got all that. They talk every week about how he's turning the curve and it's like, no, he hasn't. What the hell's he turned? Kyle Busch did make it across the cut line back into it this week? Oh is he? What are the I was just looking at the standings now, So Kyle Busch is fifteenth. Wow? Ryan Priest, how is he in sixteenth? That guy has not I guess he consistently finishes fifteenth or tenth. Carson Joseovars moved to seventeenth. Wow, that's in cool new names up there. That's who I'm That's who I'm picking to win the race Sunday. Yeahg on it, I've already picked and he's on my list. Well you can have the same guy. Nope, I'm getting rid of it. I put my bet in because I'm going to North Carolina. No, we can't have the same guy. All right, my picks of the week. Can you bet North Carolina? Or is that still out or North Carolina. I thought North Carolina started. North Carolina and South No, South Carolina is out, but North Carolina. That's why Bill bryn. Well I was going this weekend, so I went ahead made. So who's your three Kevin for this week? Yep? Well, I mean I get post of ar mm hmm, and I think, uh, you know, I've been contemplating on it, but I but I can tell you right now I believe Chris Busher may end up winning also, so I'm gonna go with host laugh. On Butcher, where's your third one? Uh? You know, well, I shouldn't say this because we always do the third as we all call it or something A long shot? Yeah you are not. You ought to pick this guy. But I'm telling you Denny Hamley may be the one that's gonna win that race Sunday. How is he a long shot? My long shot? Oh? Sorry, yeah, right, Harrison Burton, he's not, He's not. He doesn't even race anymore. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm in Ricky Stenhouse. I don't mean dumb. He dropped out of the Wood Brothers and went down to the other race of Kennedy. I'm just saying, all right now, this race is coming up. Ricky Stenhouse may get his redemption back and he may take out Ostovar. You don't remember, Yeah, it's happening. It He will dump him, no doubt, there's no doubt. But it'll probably be a super speedway because otherwise Ricky ain't in nowhere near the front. What would be great if ross chast ain't dumpshus of Ar just to show him that's how you really do a kid, that'd be great. Or it'd be great if Chestine dump Ricky House. All right, I've got Ryan Priest, William Byron and Carson josvar. Okay, and I took Tyler Reddick, Kyle Busch, yep Ty Gibbs. I've won two weeks in a row. By the way, that's cool you you won last week too. We both spicked this many times. You won this? Yeo, Trent three? Are you up? Yeah? Yeah, I'm definitely up. Shoot. I won. I won six hundred dollars on who's the guy from the Wood Brothers. Uh, what's the fus name? Number? Twenty one? Wood Brothers car Jim? I won him six hundred from him and I won. Oh shoot, Kyle Larson did not win me much in that race, and then last week blaming Blainey won one. I've won three this year, but Joey Logano, uh this last week with Blaney and then I did win hos of r winning the open race. Okay, but that's it. Huh cool, Yeah, I've done I'm uh I mean actually NASCAR has subsidized. Mind Yeah you win to go? Yeah, that's cool. Yeah. How's the keep seeing pictures of the garden seems to be coming along? Yep, not doing that at all? What am I? You didn't never ask what I want? This year? Oh? Stuffed animal dan here at the local carnival and offer a ball and not freak bot right. On the lottery. So you got squash? I had squash last night. Let's see what else you got? Squash got beans, rawns, bean, I got squash, beans corn. Let's see, I got twelve different tomato plants. I got thirty one different plants, two rows of beans and corn. Hey, if you had a Mount Rushmore of NFL quarterbacks in our lifetime, ye, who's your Mount Rushmore? You get five heads? Donald Trump is the fifth head of Mount Rushmore. Who would you pick? Kevin Well? First of all? Mount Rushmore? You want me to pick quarterbacks? Yeah, you're Mount Rushmore of quarterbacks in the NFL in our lifetime. Sound like sling blade and give me a biscuit and mustard. You got innitators for that time. I just want to know what kind of pictures that you have? Well, no, you gotta. We didn't know what each other were picking until we did it, obviously, Tom Brady. Uh, you said, Tom Brady, Hold on a second, I won't say. It's it's there's no right wrong. Answers? Who you like? Who are your studs? Troy Aitman, Johnny Alway mm hmm, Dayton Manning, h. Uh, so far so good? We had them too. We didn't have Troy Aikman. I couldn't believe Brian didn't choose Troy Aikman. I don't know how I left Troy off. You know one guy left, Tom Brady. Yeah, you know a guy we left off, Dan Marino. Oh is here is here a mount rushmorehead? He's right below the head, he's at the bow tie. When I was about to say I picked bo when I was on my way to five, but you wouldn't let me send it. Who was this? Four? Tom Brady? Peyton Manning, John Elway, Troy Aikman. That's a pretty good four. That's right. Then I was doing man. Left off. He did say Joe Montana, No, he left Joe. Oh my god, I think that'd be on everybody's Yeah. I didn't pick Joe. I didn't pick Joe because you hate you hate the Niners. No, it was not because I hated the Niners. It was just the fact that, I mean, he was explosives and stuff. But y'all got to understand this great quarterback. They had a damn line to make them great. Oh my god, you rarely have a quarterback that is not able to stay in the pocket and produce. How many champions quarterback? Four? And how many Super Bowls did he go to? Four? Shut up, Kevin, He's at the top of the list. He was my number one, of course. Okay with them, let me ask you this, then, if you want to go by that, why didn't you just put the Bills quarterback? How many times did he go to the Super Bowl? I didn't say just by stats. I'm just saying, how do you leave Joe Montana out? Why? How do you leave leave the Bills quarterback out? That brought him to the Super Bowl four times in a row, talking about Jim Kelly. Yeah, yeah, I mean there's an argument if you're gonna put Dan Marino, there's an argument that you could put. There. You go, That's what I'm saying. You know who we didn't mention. It's also one a few is Ben Roethlisberger, but he's kind of Moore felt like Trent Dilfer. Trent Dilfer, Yeah, you sort of. Ben Roethsberg was actually fantastic. Yeah, but he managed a game right more so than you was a stud. Course, Trent, let me ask you this. We're on that yeah subject. What about the person that has your last name? Kurt Warner owner, he's my cousin. He's pretty good there you go. How many super Bowls that he goes to and wins? Longevity wise? I mean, I just he did change the game, Kurt Kurt Warner, dude, that whole offense. Yeah no, I mean there's been good quarterbacks. But that's why this is a good segment. Yeah. Yeah, you get to talk about guys and go, oh yeah that dude. So why do you laugh at Eli Banning. Man? There's just something about It's something. It's his look. It always looks like a dumb ass with his mouth stuck open, like a fly is about to go in, you know what I mean. I don't know. I've liked him better since the show of him and him and Peyton together. It's maybe like him better. But how many championships did Phil Simms have? One that I know of? Okay, maybe it was two? No hosteler one the other one. Yeah, ooh, we should do uh, defensive lineman or linebackers with Lawrence Taylor obviously, And you can just get into so many of these things, Kevin, what is talking about? The person who came right after Montana was Steve Young. He was a great quarterback and a commentator. Yeah, we did discuss him a little bit. Yeah, who would you? What is your mount rushmore of vegetables. To grow or to eat? Yeah? To grow. Tomatoes, that's probably the number one thing that everybody. Then then I got cucumbers, not potatoes, and then squashed and then beans and in corn mm hmm. Those are pretty much the standards, right, tomatoes, squash, beans, corn, cucumbers, Oh, cucumbers anytime? What you said? Yep? So what was what was your trumphead? Because I would like tomatoes because I take them and make tomato juice, homemade spaghetti sauce, crushed tomatoes, dude natives. And then you green beans you can send you can you can your green beans, and then cucumbers you make pickles out of it. I make homemade pickles, and the beans and corn you can take your freeze, cut off cobs and all kinds of stuff you can do with vegetables. That's true, but. They ain't didn't be ain't getting into my garden this year because it's electric fence around. H Do you put any metal tags on it? No? But it tagged me and I felt like metal left. I hit the floor ground because I backed into it hit me and I didn't know what happened. I was on my knees. Oh man, you had a joke with through it. I heard that if you put a metal tag on it with peanut butter, they'll look it and one takes once they'll never come back. Oh that's cruel. Well that they don't all it's like once one or two. Yeah, yeah, don't go there. We had a little baby deer, little baby deer, little baby deer born in our yard. I almost hit one on twenty nine today. It was literally it was going across the road and it couldn't walk, that's how small it was a little farm, a little phone, and I waited because my truck was only going twenty five time. They already tell you my national geographic scene that I saw in front of me. I'll do it real quick. Negative go for what'd you say? Negative? God? What is that? Kevin? Yep? The he knows. I was with my kids and they were like, I don't know, six and five right, And I go pulling up and this time of year, and there's a fawn that has so many flies on it and it is doing the leg wibble thing, and I was like, oh, kids, I said, baby deer just got standing up and I'm not kidding you. Both of them yelled at the same time. Shoot, Like I was like, what it like, whatn't none of my raising here? Yeah? Yeah, I don't know where that came from. Both of them were like, I guess they wanted to do They've heard hunting stories or something. I don't know. They just said shoot. And I was like, hey, hey, hey, back off, Let's just watch this a little bit. And the mama comes running down the hill right at my blazer back then I had that blazers. Remember you and y'all had fun in my blazer. The deer is coming right at the hood of my blazer, and I'm like, oh, I thought I was too close because it was right off the edge of the road, right in the off the ditch. She comes bounding down and right at the roadside ditch. I put it in revert at the back up. Out pops a bobcat. Oh my god. And she tries to pounce the bobcat and it runs all the way up the hill and the deer, the mom is chasing it all the way up the hill trying to get it, and that little tail was going just scrunched up and gone. It was nice little animal thing. Kevin, Remember you used to be an avid hunter. Doesn't know what do you do now? I still hunt in here? Oh you do. I've not heard one here. In my freezer. I have not heard hunting story you've been doing, Carolina. Kevin, Yeah, me neither. What are you shooting with? What kind of What kind of stories do you want to hear? Because I got five thousand of them. I'm probably killed over three hundred and fifty in a lifetime. I met the two you're talking about in the freezer. I don't remember you saying you've been hunting at all while you've been down there. Yeah, what are you shooting them with? Unless you in the cemetery. On the cy with my bare hands shotgun? Yeah, we got a lake rand As. That's what it's called lake View Memory Gardens. Do you still come out then in bottom? Do you still use the Remington shotgun that you used to shoot slugs out of? That's some pump action slug rife? Were youp But you also. Had a what was that real popular one? Trent thirty five? I got a thirty out. I got a thirty out six pump action, a thirty thirty. I don't know, you know the Remington shotguns that? Oh, Marty just texted me Philip Rivers, Jesus is a mount Rushmore. Head just had God Almighty. Block that number, Marty. What are you doing, Marty? Good Lord God catering and doing your orangeior. I guarantee you she has a Mount Rushmore of interior decorators like she watches them every night. It drives me crazy. Let's just talk about the best San Diego quarterbacks they traded Brett. I mean Drew Brees. Drew Brees, he could have been on that rushmore. Possibly he's at the chest level and they traded Elon Manning. Let's not forget he wasn't gonna go. Why do you keep trying to Eli Manning? But I'm just saying he's better than Phillip River. He's Trent dilferd Oh, you're nuts, Kevin. What was the Remington shotgun that everybody owned? The automatic? The twelve gage three three inch magnum. Everybody man when we were hunting as teenagers owned that freaking gun. It was the three inch magnum, but I thought it was called or something. I have no idea. I've never shot a shotgun but maybe five times in my life. I've never hunted with one like it was the ortomatic shotgun. Everybody had one. I didn't. I thought that's what you shot. Mm hmm. So you only had a pump. I had a three inch magnum. I had a I didn't think it was called Remington slug rifle. I had a twelve game shotgun, single barrel, at a twenty games, A four ten still got them here. It's called the Remington eleven. That's what that's it m pumm. Yeah, everybody in a quarter he would shoot and it would shock you know, you didn't have to pump. Yeah. We had a friend of ours, the one seven shot teams with. We have never told that story on air. We'll have to tell that one day. Yeah, step brother Kevin shot King and that's why we named the pens because the bullet went off his head with So we. Come running down the woods. Is that when your mom fainted? Yeah? He came running to me. Yeah, and he's like holding his eye and I'm like, what's up? And he's like, I've been shot? And dude, I mean I'm sixteen years old. I'm freaking out. I'm like, what the hell man? And he's like, yeah, I took a bullet to the head. And I'm like what And there there's blood just flowing down his face. I'm terrified. Who shot my stepbrother? And you hit shot your cousin. He was a friend of our, he was a friend. He shot a shotgun of Pellotson bouncing off a tree and one shot it in the. Yeah, so I jump. We get to my car, which I had a vet at the time. I'm glad and like what made my mom so mad? Was. When I got to my car. There was probably eight or nine adults at that cutover, and not one of them said, oh my god, let me help. No, they just stood there. So they just thought it was a pellet. No. I mean, they don't know at the time he has his hand and there's blood just streaming from his face. Nobody knew it was just one bellet because he's holding his head. I put him in my car and I floor it, man. And as I'm on the way to the hospital, I thought, damn, I better stop by the house at least tell my mom. We didn't have cell phones like we yet nowadays, so I do when I run inside because Kenneth, you got to know Kenneth, he doesn't he doesn't know Pune. He was one of these just over dramatic on everything. And so I'm riding in the car and he's like, I don't know if I'm gonna make it, man, I'm still I don't know. I'm like, can I stay with me? I'm snapping right, and he's just, oh god, it won't stop bleeding, man, And just like so I run inside. I tell my mom and as soon as I tell her, she hits the floor. So you said, momm have been shot. Boom, I mean. Floor, Mama, Kevin shot Dennis. And then she finally comes to and then she's mama and ended up telling her like, Janet, this is this is Pat. Are you somewhere where you can set down? And she's like, what do you mean sit down? She's like, just please, Janet, just sit down somewhere. I got something to tell you. And she's like, hat, you better tell me what the hell is going on? She said, Kenni's been shot. He's like, we can't say it that way. You have to start it by going, hey, everything is okay. I don't want to let you know. That's how you do. Those things now were back in their eighties and ninety we ain't just they get to the hospital and those rooms, you know, they put you in and there and they got these curtains and stuff. Kenne's in there. What this boy next door? He doesn't swallow something and the gut hung in his throat is listening and he doesn't know that. Coming out there talking, They're like, we got to get two or three nurses to hold him down, and said they brought it. This needle looks like two foot long. If they were gonna stick down the throat full fullest thing and lodging and the his mouth and Kenneth sees it through the curtain is cracked and he goes, oh my god. They said we got to hold him down. Man, he's gonna go crazy when we try to do this. And Kenneth's like, Mama, Oh, they ain't doing this to me. I put my shoes on him, getting old of him. Into He's like, the bullet's right here, She's right here. What do they need all them nurses throwing that big needle to try to get that bullet. He said, Oh, I ain't standing him. I'm getting my shoes on. Oh god, hope you Yeah, it confused. You are Sam Fune And then you are saying Kenneth, and then you are saying Kevin, who shot who? What's the real names? Jr? So so all right, friend, a friend's name is Kenneth. Okay, Kevin and I hung out with him all the time. Okay, that's the one that got ricocheted in the face. Yes, so he is. We are in the woods and it's a logging road just like you would see behind the house. I'm at the entrance of the logging road. My stepbrother is halfway around to turn, probably one hundred yards away, and then Kenneth is another one hundred yards away from him. So a turkey I think it was, came in between Kevin and Kenneth and he shot in a pellet ricochet. Make sure you gotta make sure Trent knows this is our step brother Kevin, not me. That's where I was getting confused. Okay, I've never met your stepbrother. Yeah, is our stepbrother Kevin. Okay, that shoots in it ricochets and it hits Pewne. So he did not shoot in a direct line. It's Kenneth who's now June. Yes, we call him Pewne after this because he gets hit with a bullet when I pre so. Yeah, that happened, and the game warden did come. He confiscated weapons and did investigation. Wow Kenneth ever come back? Was he mad at step brother Kevin? No? I mean it was literally it was a legitimate accident. Yeah, like it was not. You know how it is when you're in the woods, you're aware of your surroundings, and he knew Kenneth was there, but I mean it just didn't think a pellet. Now I've been bird. Hunting, and if it was happened to this day in time, if that was to happen this day in time, you was seeing on seeing the end and then MSNBC and all, they would have been popular. Man shoots other man. But you know how it is this day in time. People they not like when we grew up. Yeah, well now I've I mean, you've been hunting long enough to hear a bullet whistle near you. It makes you go, oh, that's a little if. He Yeah, I've been bird hunting where a bird shot has hit me before with pellets, but I mean they're just they're falling down. Remember Dean shooting that were you there right beside your face? I was right beside you. The powder from the bullet singed my face. It was awful. Yeah, hip shot like he was going to kill a deer running. I was like, dude, that's my face. Very dangerous, sty trip. I don't know me telling me that it was awful. I think it was. I was been down and looks see if the deer was there, or what if it had horns or whatever. I can't remember why I would have been down that load to have a muzzle blast in my face, but. He was behind us, and we heard it sounded like I damn heard a cattle coming running. We hadn't even started the drive. I don't think we were getting ready to cross the fence. And he just swirls around and shoots between you and somebody else. But you were right there, Yeah, like the freaking barrel was right beside your face, idiot. That's how. That's how dumb accidents happened. I guess it is. But it's always like I've never hunted. Don't get me wrong. When I've seen a deer, obviously your nerves start to you know, you get buck fever, fuck fever. But I never got oh my god, I'm gonna do something dangerous. I never got that. I still to this day, I still don't get that. If anything, I won't shoot because I don't want something bad, right. I mean, how often have we been riding and you hear oh my god, dear, and I'm the last one to turn around because I'm like, okay, it's there. I'm not jumping. Hold on, I'm dimple. Here comes the lies. He gets that away with hunting Turkey, the race called the Turkey upon and Brian, that's none of that is true. Did he faint? None of it? He faint like Pat. Jesus. First of all, Kevin Oles hated hunting. With them, hated it. You were the butt of the no. I did not like hunting. They loved getting up and going out in the woods. I just thought, why the hell am I getting up at four o'clock in the morning putting on a bunch of camouflage to go sit in the woods, to sit and wait for the sun to come up. It never made sense to me. Well, they would drag me out to these things. And it was early that morning, and I was already nauseous because God knows what I had done the week the day before. I don't know, and I didn't. It's so raised calling up a turkey, and they're all getting excited, and I'm like, I gotta throw up, and they're all like, oh my god, he's so nervous. It's just and I've had to hear this for the last thirty years. Trust me, they do not hold out. I mean every Christmas there's this story. Brian's hyperventilating, He's gonna puke. There comes a turkey. And Ray, a little old Charlie Brown, little. Ray who can't remember if he put on pants this morning, but somehow can remember. That story, still participate in the story. Oh God, tells it like it happened yesterday. That is so funny. That's cool with an Alzheimer's person. I'm just maybe it's not. But I will know he is, so I will say this. It's still one of the coolest things I've ever seen in my lifetime. And I believe Kevin was there. You Kevin when he called up a turkey, But it wasn't a turkey. It was a fox. Yeah. Oh, because the fox was coming home run. It was mimicking a turkey. Yeah, that's cool. But it did a dead sprint towards us, like it is flying right towards us, and that dude pow and watch that damn thing just flip end over and over here in one shot. And I just looked at amazement, like, oh my god, that's cool. Homeboy just took out a rifle and took him down in a dead sprint. He said, homeboy, No, he was an animal control officer so had plenty of practice. Yeah. Well, now, he used to ask him, how many collars do you average a month? Remember that, Kevin, Oh, forty to forty two. Wow. Yeah, and you think how could there be that many dogs in account? How many people he busted? No, like, that's how many dogs he would have to euthanize a month. Wow. They are just abandoned. Least. They used to really make me mad that hunters would do that if the dog wasn't good. Yeah, they just abandoned them. Let them go. Now, if you're around Ray, you just went to Ray. Yeah. He was known for coming back with collars. Wow. Yeah, yep, great show. Yeah for over. Poor Emma, she's she's been checked out. For What I like is the video she's supposed to that. I see her texting while I'm talking. It happens all the time, as you can see her behind me. Terrible, terrible, Amma, David. The show really sucks today. Do we have a Tutelou? Yeah? I was gonna tell Hima I'm never smoking. And if we with any immigrants again, I asked you didn't want to have any papers? Hell, they already like crazy, just go. I'm left by the self. It clicked out there. I didn't hear what he said there. Now I heard that part. Do you know how to end the show today? How you got. Okay, you know how I love commncement. Yeah, kermit, have you seen who he did a commencement for? No, this is this is real.
