Will I leave? One week? Was that a was that a sasquatch? Totally grown in? There? Changed the intro? Who was the same bumper from last week? Tart? Oh no, but that was sprung on me. So I didn't know what to listen for. But I heard, Oh yeah, it was. Was that his ryobies? He had to change He had to change it because he had to put Media Squatch in it. God, these things need to be passed through me first. It is your show. But but he have to change it to Media Squatch. Why are you talking? It's not my I didn't. You're the producer, ye, but I didn't create it. It wasn't just you that got a new one. It's all fresh, all right? Anyway? Did you not hear it last week? Thank you? As predicted? I told you, I told you. Sorry, I was in Vegas, all right anyway. Welcome to the show, Life, Liberty Happiness. I'm your host, Friend's lie in the studio with Trent Warner. We are live in the David Honaker State Farm Studios. Pushing the buttons is Emma, Hello, push the original show intro. I deleted it. Oh my gosh, I don't want to get confused, Emma. Thank you for all the clips you posted this week for last week's show. Thank you to Travis for setting in. Yes, yes it was if you heard a quality because some people asked me about it. It was not on purpose, but it was mistake, so hopefully we clean that up this week. We did. It wasn't I don't know what you were talking about in the background, and was the Riobi right what? It sounded like he was editing why he was on his electric lawn. And that's why I couldn't tell there was a static because he was on a lawnmower. I like, I like when he. Does the Ryobe clips, like he's promoting the Riobi more. Yeah, but he's using an electric Riobi pruner to point things out in his ya. I laughed so hard when. Yes calling him like day and they're like, you only need a banana for its shape and. They're like it has a tamp holder. It's hilarious. H the internet all right? Uh yeah, I'm back. Yeah, I can't wait to hear about your trips. Oh my lord, let's get into it. Man Awards and forwards already, Yes here, the new intro was fire. I already got that comment already. Yeah, all right, So let's talk about Vegas. Yeah, all right, So I'm gonna give you my pre Vegas trip. I was not looking forward to this at all. Yeah. I am not a gambler and was not. I guess my trips to New Orleans have sort of remember how Tucker Carlson had always like said, their great cities have sort of gone downhill with the way liberals have just ruined them. Yes, I've convinced myself that everywhere I go now it's just gonna be trash, right right, New Orleans is trash now. I mean they've completely ruined that city. So I'm thinking that's the way Vegas is gonna be. To my surprise, Dude, Trent, I'm telling you, you would be blown away at how nice and neat everything is in Vegas. Yeah. I was expecting just a bunch of drunks and hot smokers. Yeah, wide opened. No, Now, I was kind of shielded because of where we were staying. Cut some cables or cords or something here. But we drove around lot and I was pleasantly surprised the streets were new, the sidewalks. Now, maybe F one had something to do with that, you know, But I mean even bad areas where it was kind of the older has kind of died off. They tear down the buildings and you can start to see new stuff start to sprout up, so they don't waste time. I mean, they're moving on, and it's neat to see some of the old stuff too, the old Fremont Street, which is where I guess originally it kind of took off. So people that I know, that know you that I told all about, wanted to know how you ended up. Because day one you were up four hundred. Okay, so you want to talk about gambling. I never got another update. Here's what I love about gambling in Vegas. I was still on Eastern time, so I would wake up at four aum, ok, take a shower, go get breakfast, and I'd be on the gambling four at eight. O'clock, just like you were at home. Correct, So there's no one there. It's five am there, I guess, yeah. No, no, it's probably six by that time seven somewhere like that. Well another are they three hours behind or two hours? They're three? Okay, but I'm saying I would get up at four am there, yeah, yah, take a shower, go eat breakfast, and then hit the game. But your clock, your biological clock, is you were in there at eight am. To everybody else, it was five am, So that's why it was empty. Yesky, similar, Why question this because you're still missing it. I would wake up at four. I would eat, take a shower, get ready. So I'm downstairs by five. You're physically in there at five am. No, I'm eating breakfast at five. I'm probably on the gambling floor. Like my chair keeps dropping staying. It looks like you're standing now you're on your knees. So anyway, I'm on the floor probably seven thirty eight o'clock their time, Oh okay, which would put me and you're still at your eleven o'clock here. If I was Danville gam so it was nice because you you know, by the time people would start to come down, I'm done. I mean I went on the gamble four hours okay only Yeah, so you asked how I did it? So they have I learned this a little bit at Caesar's in Danville. So the rulette they have a like a roulette table in the middle now and it's spins. Uh, but they have computers around, so you're not sitting at a table with a bunch of people. You are, but you're at your own individual board. Right. So now I got the board to myself, so you. Can just see the board. Yeah, yeah, so you're not putting your chips on top of somebody else's chick, correct, that's nice. Oh yeah, probably COVID related. So after doing I would go through this series of gambling on green which is zero and double zero, and then pick a number. So I'm only spending three dollars that's a minimum, and I would hit occasionally and win seventeen. Right, I wasn't doing much. So then as I learned, I started playing the splits called red splits and black splits. So it's a series of numbers and then you're splitting them. But occasionally those splits hit and so you double your hit. So averages would work out. Is because I started with two hundred bucks, so you drop down to one hundred, go back up to one hundred and fifty. But you know two hundred, two hundred and fifty. It's the long play, is what it is, right, And so by the end of day one, I was up, you know, three four hundred dollars, probably three hundred some So then day two, same thing, back down up, you know, and then the last day I started to get pretty good. I was up four hundred bucks, and I'm like, all right, So I literally asked, do I go home with four hundred and I just play this to try to win, and they're like, you know, you came with a two hundred is all you've spent. Might as well go home empty or go home. So my lucky number kept being seventeen. The little story there's a barber here in town, my barber, that's his favorite number, and he was talking about hitting that in Vegas. Was a little story behind it. So I tried it, and I hit. I ended up hitting on like one hundred and seventy five bucks. So I started playing ten dollars on that every time, So that was like a three hundred and seventy five return on a ten dollars that so never hit like, I got all the way down to ten bucks left, and then I went back to my averages and I built back up to fifty bucks, so then I cashed out because they were ready to go. So he ended up plus for the week. No, I ended up losing the two hundred, one hundred and fifty. Ok So, but I'm just saying, I can I know you long play is if you're gonna. Sure if I'm going to be there a while, Like all right, yeah. And I've never been. It's fun, oh Vegas. More importantly, I want to know, did you see the sphere? Did you see the Hoover Dam? Like that's the stuff I care. Yeah, more than gambling. We went to see the Hoover Dam in your same boat, I am. Yeah. I mentioned last week's podcast that you didn't listen to that I was jealous of all the Vegas stuff, the part I was jealous of most and being a civil engineer as I've always been fascinated by the Hoover Dam. You can't pictures will never do it in justice. It is one of the most phenomenal things I've ever seen in person in Paul. I mean like deep massive, Yeah. And it's neat because you can still drive over it. I mean you're driving over it and you're going from Nevada to Arizona. So the time changes, so I'm going over here and I'm an hour behind, and then I'm going back and back on time. So we did that and took pictures. So the lake is very low like, and you can see a line of where it used to be and where it is now. So it seems like it always is. When was it flast foal? I don't know. That's a good question. But more impressive, or just as impressive, is the bridge behind it where they built the interstate. Yeah, it's I'm telling you, it's every bit of five hundred feet tall. Like it's just massive, like the over the over. The lad goes to the left of the dam. No, it's like a gorge and it is massively tall, but it's it makes you wonder what happened to the United States. This is the very first thing I said when we pulled into the parking lot. What the hell happened to us? We used to do this in the thirties. You know what have we built since then? So the last time Lake Mead was full, because I've seen this was nineteen eighty three, and that wild. It's crazy, but a lot of things have contributed to it. That of course the environmentalists want to go nuts, but it's it's impressive, but it does make me wonder what have we done since we should be building more of those? Well we talked about this on the podcast before. Is the only thing that I know that we've accomplished is superstructures like bridges, suspension bridges and skyscrapers and cities. But not like mega skyscrapers. We haven't done anything. I don't know the last ginormous engineering feat we've had. I mean, we can't build a damn high speed rail from La to No San Francisco. No, and not in a decent time, Like, yeah, I don't know. It's uh so we did that. We drove our rot a lot downtown which Vegas. It's odd like when they say small, like it's not it's not this massive place. Huh. It is in the middle of a desert. Yeah what Now? An interesting fact is on the way back from the Hoover Dam. How long does it take care from Vegas to the Hoover Dam. Did y'all drive rent a car? You check the did you take the waterers with you? Yeah? Barton terrible? Was you? Yeah? They were terrific. They're kind of like, we are just laid back. Whatever you want to do. We did. Yeah, that's nice. People like that. So we did, uh, thirty five to forty minutes to drive, that's not bad. No, we grabbed luncheon a little town called Boulder City. Now, does the water supply water toy to Vegas? Yes, okay. So the interesting thing on the way back is there's this massive solar form oh no, kidding, Yeah, and it goes on for I think it was. I forget how many miles. I mean, it's it's you just keep going. Yeah, but it makes sense. It's nothing there but desert. So interesting fact when I read about it, MGM Resorts, which is seven I think of the big resorts in Vegas is ran off of that solar farm. Ninety percent of its electricity comes from that, which is fascinating to me. One casino, no, all seven of them. Oh MGM has seven casinos, Yeah, and all of them run off of that. Yes. Oh well, you know Elon Musk said it would take the size of Kansas, but we have desert big enough that we could power the country off solar. If you solar the size of Kansas. Yeah, So here's the issue with it. It's the return on investment. Doubts on that because by the time you put the infrastructure in to get it from the desert to civilization, you've spent by the time you have to change out the panels, the panels are only good for fifteen to twenty five years. Yea. And the batteries. You got a battery, you have battery, yeah, have to that battery. Yeah. But it works for what they're doing perfectly fine because. It's not that far away. So it's interesting. That was interesting, And then we did the restaurant up in the sky. Strat is what it's called. It is from the nineteen eighty two, I think is when it was built, and it literally turns so you can see all of Vegas. While you're eighty circular restaurant. It's phenomenal and it is I didn't realize it's the tallest building other than I think it's it. I want to assume that the building in New York would be the tallest, but it's. It says something up there about the tallest. So you got to see everything from up there, which I thought was really neat. I'm afraid of heights. Now that did YO eat? Yes? Now I Emma Hill like this because this is your type of crowd. I could just see this from you. We're eat and I don't know this. So above the restaurant is a platform that people go to to Watt to look, you know, to the restaurants here, and you go one more floor to a platform. Well apparently on that platform they can hook you up and you can jump off the side. Oh good, creep, I don't know this. We're eating. You see somebody and I. See somebody jump off, and I went oh, like because the way you are like what just happened? And Terror was the same way, and Bart, you know, we're freaking out like somebody just jumped and then we realized there's a platform above us and they're hooking up somebody else. And I'm like, oh my god, that's my type of crowd. Only your generation would jump off the side of a frigging building like that's nuts. But one hundred and ten degrees. Yeah, it's like walking out into an airfry. Wow, it was wind blowing, but it's just heat mm hmm, but it was. It was. Yeah. A lot of F one stuff, like the F one has taken over Vegas, Like everywhere you turned that was f one in Vegas November. Okay, yeah, and they still have everything up now. Yeah, that's wild. Yeah, they've so there. They toured it. So you probably know some of the famous buildings, the Tropicana, I think it's a famous. Uh they tore that down. They're building the A's Oakland Athletics Stadium right there, which is kind of neat. So the original real quickly is Fremont Street, which is downtown Vegas, and that's where the where you had the canopy of lights and the Golden Nugget. That's where your rat pack and all those were. And then uh, Steve Winn I think is known for the hotels. Yeah, so he figured out I watched the documentary. Of course, he figured out, we can all do the same thing. And the maximum we're gonna make off gambling I think was three hundred million is what the ceiling was. And they all were doing the same things, right the buffets, and so he said that they figured out, you know what, we could probably make more money off of non gambling stuff than we can gambling. That's when your luxury hotels started to come in. And then they moved out on the Vegas Strip, which is probably a two miles from Fremont, maybe, so you kind of kind of get to you get the old nostalgia downtown, and then you've got the new Vegas strip, which is our laggio. I got a picture at the sign the Vegas sugn. We did not because it was a long line of people. Just I'm sure. Yeah, because it's in the get this Median no Kid and they put a sign in the middle of a Median novel idea. How about shows? Did y'all check any shows? We did? We went to probably your generation. We went to circ this le okay, and I spend a little money on that because man, I'm one of those people, and I know you're just like me. It seems to me every time I go to an event, I get sat beside the either the most biggest jerk in the place or somebody who can't shut up. So I paid for box seat. We had our own private little balcony. That's all your roll. Well, I mean, I figured, if you're on vacation, yeah do it. So we got to go backstage meet some of the performers, which I will tell you I was shocked. They have seven Olympians on that show. It is an acrobatic show. Now, I don't know why they have to do the artistic crap. Why you have to have a black eye dressed up in you know, a thong and yeah, why I don't get it. But Bart liked it. That's the stuff I don't understand. And it was like an old guy and a creepy little girl that just didn't like. But other than that, the show is phenomenal. There is twenty seven feet of water. I was going to ask you if that's the one that has a pool. Dude, it's twenty seven feet deep. Huh. And they have hydraulics that lift in the floor. Well when the floor is completely down, it's seventeen feet deep, but they're diving two hundred feet above the Oh my god. Yeah. And so somebody asked because they had time for question and answer, so somebody asked the question, does anybody ever touched the bottom? And he goes, oh, it happens all the time. And they did have an accident where somebody got paralyzed the bottom, so to avoid them getting hurt, there's bubbles that come up, which is interesting. So yeah, it was it was interesting, and we did we had a private balcony with the big comfortable chairs and popcorn, and they set stuff out. However, if you're gonna build a booth, you don't put the last row of general admission up against the. Booth, like against the wall. Yeah. So literallynes too in front of us, every fricking person decided to record instead of watching the show. And so I just got a bunch of phones in front of me recording everything. And I was like, good lord, I can't even get this to be nice, you know, But no, it was nice. It was phenomenal. They do four hundred and some shows a year. They do two shows a night, like three times a week. I think the same actress, yo, Like it's crazy, but yeah it is. You think about how much practice they gotta do in between. Yeah, and here's what I recommend if you ever go. I don't know anything about the other places. The Bellagio top notch. I mean it's yeah, I mean it is very I think that's where my daughter stayed. Luxurious is what I would call it. Everything is really nice. I want to ask Audrey where she stay. Yeah, Budge had a good time. Yep. The flight was nice, back and forth. Breeze Airlines. I would recommend it to anybody. They were terrific cool. So yep, that was my backwards and forwards. Oh what's your What did you do last weekend? Nothing? I mean, after all that story. You had the low comforty ball. We did the low comfortaball yep, yeah with friends. So you don't know this, but Reagan's birthday party is Friday and her theme is a low country ball crawlfish. Oh okay, yeah, I looked for crawlfish for mine. I couldn't get it. Oh good luck used to be in uh Kroger, but I couldn't get it. It's out of season, which is why. But okay, I've got four pounds coming from Louisiana. So well, nice, we'll see very good. Yeah, we did it. It's fun. It's literally called logans. Yo. Oh that's nice. Where am I getting crawfish at He's like, it's not season, but all yeah, yeah, that was good. I did not know. I learned. The one thing I learned I did not know my whole life. Low country boil was in South Carolina. Yeah, yeah, they call it ball. He said, what are you gonna do a ball? Excuse me, you mean no boil? So anyway, that's uh that's what I'm doing this weekend. What'd you do? Uh, Emma, what did I do last weekend? Yeah? Work? I was dog sitting, and then I took my little sister shopping for back to school. You shouldn't talk about David that way. Yes, I dragged him along. Who did you say was going back to school my little sister? Oh, I don't know you had a little sister. I have three. You had three little sisters. No, I have three live, two little sisters and then one older sister. Oh okay, my little sister is going to be a freshman in high. School where Brooke full No, Rosburg. My mom teaches out in Rousseburg. My mom teaches at Rosburg Middle. And your other little sister is a sophomore. Se Uh wait, I'm having a junior at Clemson. She'll be going back soon. I thought that was your older sister. Your younger sisters at Clemson. Yeah, because I'm twenty two. I did not know that either. I have a Oh that's right, you just started drinking. But that would have made you twenty one, fourteen, eighteen, twenty two, twenty seven. Wow, where'sday eighteen? I missed that My phone was going on Clemson, Clemson and the older. She is twenty eight seven. Where is she at? She lives up in DC. She's in an engineer and her husband are both engineers. Yeah right, chemical and computer. Very good chemical. Yeah, I know, all right. This day in history, This day in history, Detroit. Riots and needs to be quicker with that button. I really don't know much about the Detroit riots other than sounds a lot like the riots we have around here. Yeah, but I saw you put Amy. I don't know how to say her last. Name, wine House that it Yeah, Yeah, she died in Vegas, right, I don't remember where she died. I think she's twenty eleven. I was going to say, I was going to ask Hima, does she know who Amy Winehouse is? You probably recognize her music. It's really really it's played a lot. Oh right, Yeah, she's kind of She was kind of jazzy, Yeah, soulful. She was really good. Did a really good documentary on her, if you ever want to catch a check a documentary. But she was really drugged out, had drug problems and fought it her adult life and finally succumbed to the drugs. How she died. But man, she was a talent. She drink herself to death.

I hope, I hope Dave is gonna facetimey Thursday night. Our group's going to do a trivia night. We're gonna go see if we can win. So, yeah, Marty and I watched Balls the other night. Do you know what that is? You know them big yellow balls that come flying down on Fox. It's a game show. You gotta get the thing right, Yeah, you've seen it. It's got a big I haven't. It's three. It's it's like six big balls, and they the family lines up at the bottom, and the people that guess wrong, the ball knocks you. In the water. I've of this, ever, he said, it's riveting. Okay, all right, that wasn't my drama. Don't count out what was your drama? I don't know. I'm in the floor. Paper. That's dramatic. I'm still watching the show blind Spot. Why are you still into this? If it's like I can't tell you just how bad. You have to watch the end or you want to see the Wokeness. I want to see it because it's got a phenomenal plot, but man, it is gotten out of hand. So far, We've had a and I'm just stating facts here, a female FBI director that's black, that's married to a black woman. Okay. We've had another female that came in as an FBI director who turned out to be crooked. We've had a gay guy who's boyfriends with a hacker that hack the system. We've got a Hispanic and a new black guy FBI director that have hooked up. So all the boxes are getting checked. Oh dude, every one of them. We've got a head. Of the NSA was what platforms is on? You know, I didn't know, but I'm pretty sure now it was NBC originally when it ran. Yeah, so I was wondering if your algorithm on Netflix is starting to spin you towards Oh yeah, I'm sure LGBTQ plus. Probably times the Then last so the NSA director was the Pakistani lady. And then this week we had someone from the CIA who was transgender that I mean, what are you doing? Yeah, and I mean every week. I mean more, how many more episodes you got? They're in the whole season left. Oh, to just turn the channel find balls. What What is interesting about it is it's puzzles, like it's I don't know, it's it's solving little puzzles and it's just neat to see them because it's like FBI, and they're solving not murder mystery. Put whose thing and the other person's thing. Oh, it's awful. It's terrible how bad they've gotten. I don't even know if people can hear me that. I'm so far down in the floor. Yeah, even better. So anyway, what did you have for? Please give me something to watch other than this crawn? Okay, so we had a listener and tell us what to watch. Chris Lacks. Okay, he told us to. Watch What Happened to Amy Bradley. Okay, so it's on Netflix. It's what Happened to Amy Bradley. It's good to see you back up, up and running for now is the camera now on his chest? I'm trying to move. So what happened to Amy Bradley. And then she was from I think Farmville originally, but she was on a cruise with her family. Have you seen this Summa? Okay, So she's on the cruise with her family. She's out dancing late at night. She's old enough that her parents, you know, are letting her their son and daughter enjoy the cruise. They go on to bed. The dad wakes up at four am and sees his daughter's legs out on the balcony, and at six am she's gone. So the question is what happened to Amy Bradley? And so Chris messaged us, but you were out, but he wanted to know what our theory is on what happened to her. So that was a I I guess it was just one episode. I can't remember what did she send a text of thedget Yeah, Oh my god, mate, that's just standing. People have no idea how. That is the funniest. You have got to make that a TikTok. I mean just the higher and lower is per after. I mean, you literally look like you're on your knees. He looks like legs. That is freaking awesome. I go away for one and you've changed the front entrance and now the chair. The chair was fine last week, Trent, were you on the floor last year? I've sabotaged my show. So the other thing I highly recommend you watching because it's only fifteen. Minutes the electric balloom Boy. No, no, the fifteen minutes long is balloon Boy. You gotta watch balloon Boy. It is fifty minutes long. And this is the story. Do you remember the story of the flying saucer where the guy had his balloon and helium You don't remember this two thousand and nine ish. I remember the story. It was big story, CNN broke in. It was all that stuff. I can remember. A guy builds a damn space ship in his backyard with helium balloon, like a helium balloon spaceship, and they tether it to the yard. It's just supposed to go twenty feet in the air. His wife was in charge of the tethering. It wasn't tethered and it takes off. Oh no, and their son, the little one, is missing. So the whole news is about and this damn thing goes ten thousand feet in the air. They get a helicopter to try to find it, and they actually find it floating, so they keep going after it to see if the kid made it or not didn't. Well, I'm not going to tell the story. It's only fifty minutes long. It's worth your watch. Okay, it's really good, but it made me remember this. Do you remember this in history? The lawnchair guy. Just get another damn. Chair, please? No, I love this. This is awful. The lawnchair guy. Do you remember the guy that took weather balloons and he kept inflating them, and he was literally in a sear's lawn chair and he put enough balloons helium balloons that it launched. He went fifteen thousand feet in the air in a lawn chair. He took a pellet gun with him. This is a true story. How's this not an Oscar winning movie. He took a pellet gun with him to shoot the balloons so that he would come down at his controlled pace. When you see the picture of it, the amount of balloons that took him in the air is incredible. I mean it looks like four hundred of them, like that movie, whatever that movie is. Well, it's not a bad premise though. Well he dropped the pellet gun. Could you start just popping them. Well, I guess you if you can pull them one down at a time. Maybe, I don't know, but anyway, fascinating story. That's my drama. Did he die. No, he did not die, Wow, but actually did hit a power line? Though, Well, all right on the sport. It's time sports got that one. Emma. You have got to put that on TikTok for and call it the ll H pit stop cheeze much better. That was a That was a NASCAR pitstop right around. You need to put the sound to it too. Speak nice car. Yeah. Denny Hamlin, Yeah, held on to uh the lead to win the race at Dover. I think he won me sixty bucks. If the shoe was on the other foot and he was racing Chase. Does he put him in the wall? Yes, I thought the same thing too. What I feel really sad about that is I watched much of the race, but I was not going to have on. I thought it rained. I thought that I thought he won. I thought I won anyway, but I didn't know they restarted the race, so I had no idea that they had a Yeah. I mean, so Denny deserved to win because he was winning when the rain came. But I will say, Chase took a gamble put tires on, and I was shocked that he couldn't need him. So the same thing happened. It was who was battling him right before the rain? Who was actually better all day? It might have been Chase Elliott, Yes, I can't remember who it was, but whoever it was, it's that same track problem again where it's dirty air and Denny is very good at that. He knows how to stay in front of you so you can't get the air on him. Yeah. So now, yep, we're on to Indy. The real brickyard. They're not doing the road courts. Correct, Yeah, No, we're back to the actual Indie race. It's been seven years. Now, it had kind of lost its luster. Yeah, I agree, but I'm anxious to see it with the new cars. Yeah, because I think it's probably going to bring us a good race, hope. So, I mean it's kind of pokonoash. You think it'll be a gas milage and again that is also a track that has dirty area issues. Yeah, so I don't know, I'm looking forward to it. Who were you leaning towards for your picks with Carolina Kevin? I really don't know. I'm going to take time to think about it because this is a race, it's kind of new. Nobody's ever really been. There, Right, it's five years in this car, Oh, okay, in this cherit car. Yeah, I mean this is brand new for all of them. So SVG has a chance. Does racing get any better if they allow practice or not? And why has NASCAR gone away from that? Everything is cost savings, man, I don't understand why they don't let him practice. I mean I can't remember going to a practice like that was part of the weekend, right, couldn't wait to hear the car fire up on a Friday? Exactly. It's not a fan experience anymore. So have you seen the latest of Mark Martin getting into it with some of the fox and so he keeps saying that these playoffs have got to go that and Denny Hamlin is saying the same thing because obviously he's never won a championship and that is what one of them said. So apparently there's one driver that's on the competition committee that decides these things, and Denny, I think, is it. But Mark Martin is saying they just put too much. On you mean, the nd season tournament or are you talking about the championship drivers, the championship. The playoffsky Mark Martin hates it. Yeah, more so. I don't know that he hates going away, correct, it's not, but he hates that you can win one race in your in because he said the consistency of the sport has gone. What can they do like F one does and have like a regular season champion and have a playoff champion. They're doing an nd season champion right now, which that's as big a joke as you could ever have. Ty Dillon is in your final, that's ridiculous. If it's done anything, it's made some of the other drivers somewhat relevant to follow that story. Yeah, which if that's what they're after, and it's. It's just like stage racing. Stage racing has made the race a little bit more interesting during the middle of the race, and I think an ND season tournament makes it a little bit more interesting. But I could easily just do without too. Yes, I could, But the playoff thing, I could. I can understand what he's parts of it if you rewind. Was it last year year before that, Austin Sindrick won the Daytona five hundred, Yeah, and he never come close to winning a race the rest of the year. He has no business being in the playoffs. Yeah he wasn't even in the Yeah. Yeah, but he wouldn't have been in the regular season championship. Either, true something. Yeah. I mean, I think the only crazy thing was of the championships. And I'm not a big fan of it. I wish it was the other way too. It does make it interesting. We do watch Martinsville when we know it's the big cut off line. Sure, it's brought us some really good things, So I mean it sounds like I'm going against myself. I'm not totally completely against it. I can see where the old school stuff matters, but you know, I always wonder who would have won. Of course they you wouldn't race the same way. But last year when Joey Logano isn't even in the top sixteen and it only gets in because Bowman his car was too light, it's Charlotte. He comes in at sixteen and he ends up winning the whole thing. Sure, and he was actually seventeenth. It's just I don't know, it's kind of gimmicky, but it does make people watch a little bit more. Yeah. No, and I'll agree to all of that. I do think there's good points and bad points. I think that they could figure out a point system that works more than just when you're in Yeah, uh win and maybe you get you know, bonus points or something. Yeah, but this whole thing of you win one race. I was thinking if they did the old school, it would be nice, a nice gesture to fans like me. Yeah, that like the old stuff is to go back. When did they start this nineteen ninety seven or something, or when did When was the last time they stopped doing That's a good point the race, but let's just say it was two thousand, the last twenty five years. Yeah, go back and make a regular season champion that. Was with off the point system. With the old point system, and then still this year you could do the same thing, and you know, William Byron might be the winner. So you have two winners, you got a championship winner, and you got to I don't know. Yeah, I agree. I I'm like you, and I do it similar to F one and only give points to the top fifteen drivers. Yeah, make the fifteenth position mean something. Yeah, instead of giving points to everybody. Yeah, I don't know. So anyway, So it'll be interesting to watch Indianapolis and we'll have our picks coming up later on with Carolina Kevin f one if you was off this week, but they will be in Belgium. Yep. That's one of my favorite tracks. Do you remember what that one. Is that goes to the woods? Yeah, yeah, that's a neat track. Yeah. So obviously this will be the first race ever that a Red Bull has raced without Christian Horner. Wow. So we'll see what that looks like. Be interesting to see where he lands. I think it's gonna be Cadillac. Yeah, be interesting. He started Red Bull from scratch and built it. Why not start F one? I mean, am I wrong? And I could be completely wrong. I thought Cadillac was a by Andretti. I thought Michael Andretti was the spearhead he is of that. So I can't imagine Michael Andretti with the name of Andretti is going to let somebody else come in and run it. Do you think Michael's going to try to run it? Yeah? I do, I just I don't know why. I'm pretty sure I think he's the one spearheading at all. No, I mean, just like Landstroll's dad, spearheads that, but he's not the Prince team principal. Yeah, I mean I can see what you're saying. Yeah, I mean, who knows better than Christian of what needs to be done on an organization? Yeah, it ain't Michael ANDRETTI. Yeah, I don't know. We'll see. We can both agree that it won't be Gunfner. No, but I mean that's a good example. Has owned that and he let Gunther drive it in the ground. Yeah. Well he did it good at the beginning to start it. Yeah, and then he just yeah, it was not good after that. Uh ver back Thursday. TBT. Yeah, why I thought you loved the tvt. I do, but I'm just I'm not into the sports frame right now. Oh my god, dude, I flipped it on the other night. I first started looking at the first round, and I'm one of those that tries to find a team and look at a player and go, oh I remember him, and I google it. Yeah, just to watching it. I just haven't caught it up with you yet. But listen, the elam ending is a gimmicky thing, but my god, does it make for great basketball. And last night was phenomenal. I'm watching I watched the Kentucky game first, and dude, like, there are Kentucky players that I know, Like, it was not that long ago that Willie colly Stein was at Kentucky and a beast, and here he is playing and he does play professional. He does not play in the NBA, but he does play I think in the G League. So that game at the end, and I wanted you to watch it so bad because I wanted you to call me and go. Now you can't do that. I was working on. So just to set it up real quick, they're coming down to the end. The elam ending is seventy one points, so the first one to seventy one wins. Kentucky has gets a rebound and they've got a breakaway and they have sixty sixty nine. They hit Willie coley Stein on he's trailing and he's going for this monstrous dunk to end the game and he gets hacked. Great foul and it was not a blatant you know, it was a great foul. He just missed the dunk. And so he's walking to the free throw line to take his shots and then he just falls straight to the ground and so the referee they had miked up which was phenomenal, by the way, and he says, uh uh, nope, nope, you're not hurt. Get up, up, we're not doing this. He's trying to get a replacement to shoot the free throws. Correct. The other two reefs are going, hey, you know they can the other team can pick a shooter, and he goes, he's not hurt. I watched him. He's not hurt. And that reff is getting pissed that they're going to allow this guy to do this. So he gets up with his teammates and he hobbles off right. You could feign an injury and have a technical. So he's saying to the coach he ain't going nowhere. He's shooting free throws. And he goes to the monitor and he tells the other refs, I'm gonna look at it, but I'm telling you he ain't hurt. And you hear the coach yell he's a pro. We can't take a chance. Meanwhile, the camera catches him running to the locker room. The ref is livid at this point, and so they get to choose and this guy comes out and he hits the first free throw and I think, oh man, this sucks. They're gonna win like this. Well he misses the second. Oh wow, they have sixty eight the other team. They come down at jack up of three and nail it, no kidding, yes, to win the game. Fauld online. Yes, that's what I yelled, cheaters. Yeah, and I think that's awesome. And they do it at Reperina. When you said the guy when you said that guy was trailing to dunk, but didn the first guy just make the layup. Because it was a guy guarding him and he literally passes it back. He's wide open like he's going for this monstrous and the guy behind him just hacks genius play well to not give up. But that's at Rupperina, and the place was ninety percent Kentucky and they're going, you. Know, yeah nuts, so full gym or a pretty full gym. It was pretty full, I would say, yeah. Uh, and so the second game was just as good. Now this is the tournament before the tournament, right, this is the regionals that they no, no, this is the real TV. Yeah, we're down to the sweet sixteen. So round two I think it was last night. Yeah, yeah, So last night you had a seventh seed playing the one seed, which is the Carmen's crew in their last Year's Winner, which is an old Ohio State team, and they were playing at Butler Facility. Again, I flip it on and I'm like, oh, finally I'm watching a blowout. So the other team, the seventh seed, is up sixty five to forty six, and the elam ending was seventy six or something like that, right, so I'm thinking, well, this is gonna be over with dude. Before you know it, it was sixty eight sixty six. I'm like, this is what's great about the elam ending. They could have just ran out the clock, but they can't. Yeah, because there's no clock. You gotta get to the score. Yeah, and they end up winning. But the team that was down or the team that was up, now, the team that was up ended up winning. But that team came from forty six, you know, to almost tie it. Did you say that Coyle guy has a team. That he has that team that ended up winning it? Okay, Yeah, that's his team from Indiana. Yeah. I was gonna say Indiana because that's where he's from. Yeah. Did they upset the last year's a champ? Wow? Yeah, So he's the What I love about that he's the general manager. So you and I, I was joking, but you and I literally can raise money. Well, there's a team from Lynchboro College. In the last year I went pretty far. Yeah, when they first started, they went really far at Lynchborough College. Yeah, so you and I could literally fork over the money. And I was joking, but the name I thought was catchy Who's Who? And you know, get a bunch of old Who's players? Yeah, to play And that's all it takes is a general manager and put together a team and anybody can play anybody. That's what I think is fascinating about this tournament. And you said there was a D three team. Oh, that team upset another team a number one seed and they're just called we D three and they're made up of nothing but D three players. That's cool. So I just it's a neat tournament. But it's on Fox, which is even better. And they've got a guy I don't know his name, but I swear Trent He's he reminds me and I'll find out who it is because he's phenomenal. He's an announcer that I think did Georgia Tech games for many years and he's remember the old Jefferson Pilot and he had that voice and I know it's him, and he does the games terrific. I love him. So anyway, that's the TBT. So you brought me to a subject here, it's the tvt and We're in the middle of summer, and I'm sort of out of sports right now. Yeah, every now and that we had Wimbledon, Wimbledon a little bit. We had to. By the way, it's the British Open. Stop telling me it's the Open. I hate when they say that. I mean, you don't even I didn't even know it was a major, honest to God, called the British Open. So I knows the major. But anyway, congratulations as shuffler. But what sport can fill in this void? Like after the NBA, in the NHL, in football we still as an evolved society that we're supposed to be, how do we not have anything? The USFL doesn't work, hasn't filled that void? Of course the WNBA, for God's sake, souther Than Caitlin Clark, there's nothing to watch. We haven't even started on them. What sport do you want? Oh? Yeah, wear a T shirt that says pay me what you owe? Me or whatever it said, how about you pay the subsidy back to the NBA. So it's what we've said all along that when they lose liberals whoever, Yeah, they can't. They do not want to talk facts. So Emma, you explain this to me. If your league is losing forty million dollars a year, what are you saying, pay me what you owe me? Like, what is right? How can you get paid more if the league is losing money? So you know what they say, Look at this part. Their revenue sharing is eighteen percent, airs is only nine Well nine percent of loss is lost. You're getting paid more than the loss. But they want to use the percentage we're not getting paid percentage. We really getting paid nine percent. And it's like, dude, stop, Like I'm curious, Trent, because I heard that stupid Jamil Hill she was on the other day. She goes, what they're not telling you is the other leagues. We need to do a mount rushmore of stupid anchors. She's still say she said the NBA lost money for its first forty years. Do you think they didn't get paid? That's what she said. Now they also didn't take commercial airline. I mean they had to do commercial airlines. I tell you what they also did. The losses were consumed by who Trent being investors, right, the owner. They didn't have some subsidy that bailed them out. Right. And by the way, back in the day they had two jobs. Basketball was just their side job. You're you're leaving out all of the facts. So they may have lost money and got paid, but they were also doing everything they could. How about how about this? How we joke about it? But you remember Charles Barkley talking about how he would wash his jersey. Yeah, he would just take a shower in it. Hello, nobody was doing his laundry. We leave that part out. Well, maybe the idiots. Maybe the WNBA is doing laundry. Oh, speaking of it, on have had it. I've got the first lady astronaut that landed on the moon. Wonderful. So the sport that can fill in, I've got a suggestion. I mean, I'm trying to think of things that we would be watched. No, I mean that's a that's an offer. Can you research this, don't lose your thought? Can you search? I'm taking b one day. They just started a pro softball league. Yeah, so I want to know what its revenues are and what they pay their players. Yeah, I guarantee you it ain't. You know, they're complaining. Yeah. So anyway, I'm curious. I think what's gonna fill avoid? Why not? Why not men's track? Why not track? Like if you could sponsor like Saturdays or whatever, you know, to fill in the college football time that you had an event on the Saturdays, that would be something that you could promote. I mean track in Europe, the stadiums are packed. Dude, You're not far off. Yeah, because when we grew up, what was on Saturdays, the wild wide world. Of sport, wide wide world sports. Yea, and dude, we couldn't wait. We couldn't wait to watch. Do you remember the You remember the little skier that went off the thing and it was the agony. Like it was yesterday. But all of those sports phenomenal. We need Olympic We need to promote Olympic stuff. I mean soccer is sort of fills it in. I kind of watched the soccer game the other night, I do for the first time. It was the Olympic guy, I mean the guys without the pro without the really good players made it to the finals against Mexico. I watched that. We got something to fill it in. We used to watch the box and how yeah, Saturday boxing. That's what I'm saying. You can do Olympics. It may maybe not just track, but just Olympic sports. Try to. Probably we've got the Olympics coming up because in our country. We don't know who the athletes are when the Olympics. Yeah, you're right, So. The average salary is like forty thousand. Okay, I mean they just started right for a softball team. Wow, Oh I meant per player. Yeah, that's what that's. No, you're right, yeah, like each player makes around forty good. Grief, that's pretty good, I would think. I mean it just started, right, I mean it's a brand new So the WNBA is at seventy thousand. I think that's what they said. Caitlin Clark makes. Yeah, hers is like seventy five that's the average. Well they're probably just oh yeah, that's that's what her average salary would be. And then she got all the endorsements. Correct, They leave that part out. Yep. Another sport, by the way, that has made more black women richer than any other business entity, and they will not acknowledge that anyway. Anyway, that's what I had. That was my question for sports. All right, onto what's happening? It's time for news. That was pretty good. Wash anybody anybody home? God, I don't think my head's above the table and nobody's listening. Man. You just the news cycle right now. We got rid of our segment of what's on the mainstream media's headlines. Yeah, I wondered about that. I am shocked. Well, the American hero stories that we are just so good that you can't have but so much quality in one show. It's hard, gotcha? Speaking of American hero stories, we will be back on track next week with their American hearers. As announced that last week that we were going to start just alternating. Sure, we got Gary Witt next week. Nice, hopefully I still got to coordinate that. Okay, that's what we're working on. So just the news cycle has been crazy. I wake up this morning to the news that Donald Trump has uh have has signed an agreement with Japan. Yeah, and again these are massive deals, like I don't Again, the news doesn't tell you how huge this is, right, They tell you, Oh, Trump signs a you know, deal with Japan. And so again they lie. I watched an interview with Howard Howard Lutnik the other day. I like that guy. So the CNN or CBS lady says, you know that Canada is freaking out because we're not gonna go to zero tariffs no matter what. Right she leaves out the park and thank god, he says, no, we have an agreement with Canada. What is it called the Canadian Mexico Trade Agreement NAFTA. No, they got rid of AFT and did the Canada Mexico Trade Agreement. That stuff's still in place. All of this time, I've been thinking, and I was wrong. There's only certain things that are negotiable right now with Canada, Like seventy five percent of the imports and exports are tear free. It is still the same. Right, These are just certain items that we're jocking back and forth to get the best deals on. But they don't tell you that. They go, oh, you know, he's jacking up the tariffs on it's certain items. How about the opportunity now that are rice gets to go to Japan. That's what I'm saying. That's the stuff. And honestly, I played the clip a few weeks ago. But do you remember the clip of in the eighties. I think he was talking about this with Oprah. It might have been the nineties, but I thought it was the eighties that Oprah interviewed him and he talked about tariffs back then, about how essentially we can sell, we can buy their VCRs, but they don't even let us bring our VCRs to Japan. That and we allow that to happen, And so that's what I thought. That was the biggest part of the news today. Not only is how much revenue it was going to generate, and they agreed to the tariffs that we now can send our rice over there. Now I'm sure they're thinking there's no way that they'll buy our rice. Yeah, right, and that is what you have to do. But at least we're in the market to be able to market that. Yeah, I'm just I can't wait. Huge. I wish they would just tell the news like real news would be. Hey, this is how much our trade deficit was under Biden the first year. This is our trade deficit as of now. Yeah. I don't want to step on your toes about the news story because I got one today, Okay, to play on have at it, But it was it was about how the news cuts off the good. News they do. Yeah, I've got one, no doubts. I got a really good one today. There's no doubt. So one of the things on the news cycle that I'm sure y'all are following is the Epstein files, right, yeah, everybody, and dude, please tell me you've seen the clip of Mike Johnson talking about your man, Thomas Massey. Yes, I love I love the inter fighting, right, unlike the Democrats, I don't mind it. Yeah, because we're something good comes out of it, right. We got Mike Johnson. Yeah, we used to have idiot Yeah, Kevin Yeah, it was his last name, McCarthy. Yeah. So anyway, yep, the news media has jumped on this all of a sudden. They want the Epstein Files released. Isn't that crazy? Well? I hope so. I'm not a big fan that we don't have it either. Sure, that's on my list of your Mount Rushmore story. But don't you think it's crazy that now they want it? Like that's the funny part more than anything. So this is ruining Trump and his voters. Yeah, like the voter this is the splitting. This is what has caused his party to fracture. Yeah, except those damn pesky polls that CNN's doing. Yeah, is not showing this. Check this out. I hear all these stories, all these articles, all the Trump voters, they regret what they did back in twenty twenty four. I'm here to tell you, uh uh what percentage would change their vote to a different candidate. We're talking just two percent, just two percent. That's not even a WIDESPU on the road. So the bottom line is this. If there's some idea out there that Trump voters are going around, man, I wish I had voted for Kamala Harris instead of Donald Trump. You know, the numbers say that is a fanciful universe. Really for the most part, does not exist. Awesome, And they try, they keep throwing questions at him. Yeah, but he's like it's not there. Yeah, like they just they want it to be so bad. Man. I am happy that we can have things that don't please us and we don't just burn the guy as a rhino. You know how we've done that for so long. I mean, not everybody's gonna agree on exactly the same thing. Yeah, exactly. I think it's phenomenal. Still supports guy. I still go back to They keep telling us he has the slimmest margin in the history of Congress, and Mike Johnson has gotten stuff passed, not just stuff a lot. How about this? The real story should be, how come there's not a single Democrat that can vote for anything? Not one? That's the story, right? You know what I mean? I can't. But I'm also a little taken back on just how they have ignored the Obama thing. Oh of course. And here's what I find so fun. I don't have the clip, and maybe you got it later on. Yeah, I've got something. You've got the one of the press secretary. I'm not sure. I don't know. I've seen in a lot of stuff. The CBS reporter literally invokes the presidential immunity. The Trump got that Trump created? Correct, And how are you going to charge Obama? How fitting that these cats are now using that which I don't care? And I loved her answer. Her answer was, listen, the president city would be transparent. That's what we're doing. You would think instead of asking that question, you would be saying, holy crap, we had a sitting president try to interfere in an election. That's not on Wikipedia. If you look up Obama. But if you look up Trump, I guarantee it says election denier. To see what Tulci landed today exactly. Yes, it's sickening. So it's about Hillary and Hillary being tranquilized heavily during the campaign, and that Russia had that info but didn't use it right before the campaign, like our intelligence knows that Russian intelligence knew that she was being sedated. Do you remember that time she fell she got into the limas well, that was part of the problem. She had been tranquilized. That's what the word they used. Russia had that. Remember, everybody was wondering what was going on if Russia really was trying to promote Trump, right, because that's when the Russia Russia Russia happened. After that, If Russia had that in their hands available and didn't use it, well who did that benefit? That benefited Hillary? But they never, of course said any of that. It's Ulsey let it all out today, of. Course, and I listen when it went on. I never understood why Russia, Why would Russia want Trump in office? The dudes tough on every well, I'd never understood that angle of why you think that he would be buddy buddies with Putin. I mean, it never made sense. Yeah, but I'm glad for this saying. I saw. I heard it this week from buck Sexton that it's about time that that we do to them what they have done to Trump, for example, take make them go to court and make them defend himselves. Exactly right, that's what I say. Make him use the same immunity defense. Make them go run that up just like they rented up to us, except we actually have the facts on our side instead of something that is a dossier that was made up, instead of a fake audit, that type of thing. Right, So go after them. And buck Sexton's example was if we are not the party that we used to be, so the party we used to be would go, oh, that was a terrible four years. Let's do a tax break, right, Okay, let's not do be that party anymore. Let's go after the things and end the bs that we had to live through and make the Washington Redskins the Washington Redskins again. Make it a symbol that we're not going to go back to that woke bs. Correct. So anyway, I hope that is what happens. No, dude, I'm right there with you. I am so excited, and it just seems like every day I read something, I go, God, thank God he's president, Like this is so refreshing. And it's so many little things that we don't even know. How about Colbert losing his job, right, I mean, hey, you're losing forty million a year like the WNBA. Can't you can't insult your bosses and then still think you're going to get to keep your job. And it's it's so many little things that just keep adding up. But then again, I sit there and I watch ABC, CBS and NBC and they don't even care. There is nothing on there that talks about Obama, of course, and it just shocks me. It's like, how long, like I eventually or does this ever become a story? Is it just it goes away too? He certainly is never going to see jail, and I don't expect that, certainly, but in court and have revelations about it, even if your channels aren't going to cover it, we should hear it. Right. Actually, I want to see Mike Brennan in jail. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Trent said that, No, no, I would, that guy's a trader. Exactly these are He's a trader to. The voters that voted for another guy because you think you're smarter than the other guys. Correct, that's arrogant, prick. Susan Rice put that on TikTok. Yes, Oh they're just m and dude. If I see one more Facebook post, Yeah, I texted you about your. Aunt, but. Lest I call her out, No, she don't listen. She don't listens to NBC or PBS and NPR just them crying the blues like you had every opportunity to fix it. Yeah, but you chose still not to. You're still running hit pieces to the person who holds the purse. Good. I really do hope we see that end. This is one of those things where I hate seeing the ads. In five years, we see this again. I've heard about NPR losing funding before and they never went away. I hope it happens. See you, I'm not gonna miss you, right right. That's I got some advice on the mount rushmore stories that we want covered, and I got some advice and I'll be adding those to the list. So do you so? Do you honestly think the Epstein thing is a Top twenty? Yes, you do I do you put it in the top five. I did, and as I started ranking them, it just fell out. But yeah, I'm pissed about it. Okay, I'm not happy. Don't walk and run around saying you're being transparent and then not be transparent. Don't tell me that a guy hid files up in New York and you fire him and everybody clapped as he went out the door. And then. What files that he hide? Don't tell me they We're going to release some of the names. You keep saying the same thing the previous guys. You just do it. Yeah, I agree, Yeah, good or bad? Like I don't know. I think we're in I think we are society that looks at stuff and goes like, RFK Junior, Is that right? Is a JFK? I get him mixed up? Yeah? RFK the Health secretary. I mean you know he has admitted Yeah, I've been on planes with Epstein. That doesn't Yeah, that doesn't make you a pedophile. That's what Dershwood said. Toot his name got slammed when he first started because his name is on a list. And that's what Trump says. He's trying to protect. I'm sure his friends of people that he knows that went to lunch or is on a list, and once your name gets associated with him, you get slandered. Yeah, and I'm sure that's what he's trying to avoid. But he's making a mistake by not he is. Because the media, And of course it's how dumb the American. He's just the media. I mean, it's our side. I mean, no, no, but I'm saying they attack it is that Trump's on the list right right, And. It's obviously if he was on a real list, he'd. Be Democrats would have used it a long time exactly. You know that, you know the person they're really protecting the most in our country on that list is Bill Clinton. Oh but I was listening to Derschwitz. I mean he rattled all five names of people that went on there, and I was like, I had no idea that guy's name was on there. And the reason he was rattling it off is because it has been out in the public. They just don't just the same thing. The same channels that cover the news would not cover these names. So I heard, did I miss here? Tucker? Is Tucker saying that Epstein may not have done these things. I don't think Tucker is saying that. I mean, I watch a lot of Tucker. I've never heard that he's mad that that we're not being forth right. He does not believe Bongino and and I don't either. Yeah, the other day with Tucker, I swear I'll go back and research it. I swear. They were basically saying, how do we know that Epstein was even that this wasn't all just made up by the government to cause an issue, Like, yeah, I don't know, I don't know. I haven't seen him do that, but I watch a lot of them, but I haven't seen all of them. Yeah, well that brings me to win. We're gonna win, win, win, and we're gonna make America great again. So the biggest scandal was when they spied on my campaign. Oh love this. There's no real evidence of that. Of course, there is all over the place. Leslie spied of my campaign. And again, can I say something. You know, this is sixty minutes and we can't put on things. We can't because it's bad for Biden. We can't put things we can't verify. Leslie, they spied the mike, it's been just go down and get the papers. They spied to my campaign. They got caught. No, and then they went much further than that, and they got caught. And you will see that, leslie and you know that, but you just don't want to know. As a matter of fact, I don't. Know and she listen, peoples, certainly we would know that. Here's the sad part about it is she knew it. Then they all knew it. Then when they claim that they can't verify, that is the god they all knew. Hey, what did you think? Do you have Hunter on any of your Oh? Yeah, I've got a doubling him up best week. Have you caught any clips today of the response to Hunter from the dims? No, livid at him? Oh yeah, okay, calling him a crackhead. Now all of a sudden, he's no longer a victim. Remember before he was a victim. So what I'll say about that? That was I'm thinking twenty sixteen, Yeah, that interview. No, that was going into the twenty twenty election, wasn't. Yes, that's why he said, you'll know because he thought he was gonna win and release all this stuff. Okay, So that's what I was saying. And what ticks me off is now the story is oh that was eight years ago. Stop with the rehashing the story. And I do think, man, I'm glad Toldy Gabbert's going up there and trying to be transparent like they say they're going to and she's doing that. But then do something. Yeah, you know what I mean, stop getting a headline and not follow up and do something. I will say this, It's not like the Dems aren't fighting. Yeah, so I mean we say do something. But a good example is Maureen is that her name? Uh Komy I told you about her that. Just got fired. Yes, I told Warren she got eighty six. Well, how how great that we're firing people that are getting in the way. Now I read that story today about Ali Bobbitt, the attorney. How phenomenal that our administration goes, okay, you're going to point a liberal, we'll get rid of that person. Like they're not letting them win. And there again the Republicans in the Senate, who are the worst body of any of the Republicans, don't get the prosecutors appointed. Yes, and they have the power to do it. Why don't they do it? What's keeping it up? The same reason that the clawback bill, that's what I call it that took back the whole Rescue Act that just passed recently, which is phenomenal that that passed. By the way, they did do something right. But I'm sitting here watching it, and here we go again. It came down to the three but Mitch McConnell doesn't vote on the procedural vote. He votes against it, which makes the vice president have to come in to break the tie, but then votes for it once it goes to a full vote. What is your purpose of doing that? I'll get it. Is that an argument behind closed door? Screw you, I'll make you come here and vote. Yeah? Really, Mitch, I'm telling you, man, the swamp is disgusting, but I'm glad it's getting called out more than ever it is. But we are we Are we convincing yourself? Or are we just postponing the inevitable? And the only reason I say that is I never would have thought with Glenn Younkin, as successful as he's been, that we would go right back to a worse candidate than Ralph Northam. With Abigail Spangler, Oh yeah, I mean she's not she's not borderline, she's way left. And they're telling me that she's winning candidate, and it is fifteen points behind. I know, I know. The state just irks me. So I mean four years from now we right back with freaking liberals running the show again. I don't know. I don't know because everything is so good. Like when I talk to people, it's the I mean, they're so excited about what's going on. You're going to have your people that are just idiots that are going to vote the other way to be stupid. Well, we've got still Northern Virginia, Richmond and tddwater. Your four oh one k hit forty five thousand today, Wow, and we will see fifty I predict before mid term. Look at you. Cool, I'm telling you listen if you want to go back and pull it up. I was sitting on town council when COVID happened, and I made this statement. They were wanting to cut the budget because they were afraid we weren't gonna be able to pay for things because of COVID, And I said, why don't we use the rainy Day Fund? And everybody up there said that's for emergencies. It's more emergency than COVID. I literally had a candidate say, this is the worst catastrophe we'll ever go through in our lifetime. Then why are we using the rainy day Fund? That's what it's for. And I got just lamb blasted over the whole situation. But I said, give it six months, we'll be back over thirty in the stock market. And they laughed at me. And I sent that text to every single one of them when we were at thirty two thousand, six months later. I'm telling you Trump in the economy, dude, there is no one better. Yeah, and we're idiots not to recognize that. He certainly is right almost a time. All right, yep, moving on Mount Rushmore. The Mount Rushmore. What are we doing today? Today? We are Mount Rushmooring, Store Rushmooring. Yeah. Uh, stories that have kind of disappeared, But I want answers to We talked, We still want cover. We do it all the time, and I want to. I'm just trying to keep my list, and so I can't wait to hear yours. Yeah, I'm so excited to hear Emma's. I mean, good lord, look, she's wanting to know. I asked what happened to the. I literally because one I forgot about. I literally said to her, what about the Jason al Dean And she said, what about What are you talking about? Now? How do you not on my list? Anyway, That's one of the things I looked at when I was in Vegas. Where was that at? Yeah, I drove around to see it. So, Uh. The first on my list is the bomber in downtown Nashville. Yeah that just went away. Yeah. That dude blew up a camper motor home. Yeah, and down businesses, which, by the way, one of my favorite businesses that I went to in Nashville is gone forever. It never came back. And that was a spaghetti factory and that place was phenomenal. But why he blew it up? Yeah? Well so why what? Yeah? What motivator will blow anything up? And I thought it was interesting because I saw this on TikTok. Someone said, how is it that we can have a couple having an affair at a Coldplay concert? Yeah, and know everything about him? And I mean we know everything about him, yeah, but we can't. I don't I stay away from that story. I'm bored by that. I hear you. But I'm saying the public knows everything about him, but we don't know nothing. About the downtown bomber exactly, the school shooter in. Nashville, Say, yeah, what's up going on in Nashville? Remember that? Yeah, the manifest that supposedly there was no manifest but now there is a manifest. Yeah, the lesbian Yeah, unbelievable. Pelosi's weird, dude. I think about this in the husband. Yeah, where'd he go? You can't so Leslie Stall can go interview whatever such and such, you know, El Salvador, but you can't go interview the gay guy that was with Nancy Pelosi's husband with a hammer in his hand. Bob Costas goes and interviews the freak at the defensive coordinator at Penn State that took down Joe Pop remember Sandusky. Yeah, yeah, we can hear that interview, but you can't get an interview with any of these exactly. And by the way, if you've ever seen the footage, the police officer footage, there's zero chance that they didn't know each other. Yeah, no chance, right, I mean the way either, he can't. Just stand there comfortably next to the other guy going he's hit me, Yeah. He's hit me, And then he takes a hammer to your hand. Come on and he's in his underwear, Like, what are we doing? No, that's right, that's bull should be. Oh the boat that took out the bridge? Dude? How do we not even know what the guy looks like? How this steered the ship into the Baltimore Bridge? Right, that's what true? Yeah? Is the bridge being built? Yeah? Where is the bridge? How's it? Is it back yet? Is it back up and running? How? What's the status of that? These there were news stories that we used to cover back in the day. And where's the boat? Where's it today? Where to go after it left us? Where did the guy go? Where is he? What's his background? Amaz? We don't even know his name. And the one that got me that I forgot about is the truck bomb. I think it was a bomb that took out the I ninety five bridge in Philly. It did it tore on an abutment? Right? Was it an explosion it took it out? Yeah? So I mean I don't think a truck could just take it out without exploding. Yeah, exactly. And there's so many of these stories that we used to have a press that would do things. We don't know nothing, and we don't know. Anything in today's society. Yeah, where we have a million ways to get news. Nobody's covering it all? Right, you want mine? Maybe we should start a podcast of just covering these things. My George Washington. Number one is the twenty twenty election. I want to really happen. I want to know what really happened in the twenty twenty election. And what I think is crazy about it is, you know, the best display of any of the displays is the bar graph that goes across that shows that Biden was that much higher than Obama and Kamala and Trump is the same all the way through, and so obviously something happening. Of course, how easy. Would it be to just look at every precinct in the country and see where the jumps were. That's where you start. We watched two thousand mules. Has anybody refuted the guy that said you can follow the pings, you know the cell towers. Nobody refuted that to say it was wrong. All they say is is a conspiracy theory. Yeah, exactly. How many conspiracy theories end up right? Correct? Right? How come we don't have we have Congress? How come we've never had a hearing? How come we've never brought the Black ladies up that beat that won the lawsuit against They settled in Georgia, the black ladies that were pulling the ballots out from underneath the table, and then she sued a news company or whatever, and apparently they won a settlement. Okay, how are they not in front of Congress to say what they actually did? I mean, you want a settlement, you can talk. Okay. That's my number one. So my number two? Is there gold in Fort Knox? We keep talking about it. We know, we don't keep talking about it. It came up, Okay, So I might have a different take on that one if there's not Do we really want to release that? Yes? Okay, why do we Why are we spending Fort Knox security dollars if there's no gold? I will say that. Somebody mentioned this the other day, CBS reporter who literally laughed and said, do we really trust cryptocurrency? Okay, what's the difference if there's no golden fortnot? Yeah? Do we really trust what's getting printed now? Yeah? Exactly? And are they taking the time to bring it back just so they could cover. We haven't even mentioned Jerome Pile getting. Charges sent Yeah, that's about you mean about fraud? Or about trying to improve the Federal Reserve. Yeah, he's been criminal charges have been sent to the Department of Justice. My number three is the Vegas shooter. What you were just talking about, the guy so I had that number four? Who met with Crooks? Kiah, There's been zero here other than the FBI director getting fired for saying that the roof was too steep for them to get on, which was stupid. There was there's nothing. There's been nothing told to us. So in all honesty, just think about what you're saying. Yeah, right after this happens, you're sitting in a meeting, just like we've been in millions of meetings, and somebody says, dude, we have to cover our rear. I mean, why won't we on that roof? Just tell them it's too steep? Like who came up with that narrative? Yeah, and it proves how useless these people are in high places. Yeah, to not even know that that would be checked. And thank god we have a social media now because it would have been oh yes, it probably wouldn't even been answered. And then I'm gonna put this with the who met with Crooks is who funded the Florida assassin remember that crazy dude who funded crooks who funded that, right exactly. And then I got some extra ones that some people have helped me with. Where did all the money go to Ukraine and Iran? You remember they were going to follow the money to make sure it wasn't being used. For originally the NGOs? Right? And then the one that Brad sent me was which is a great one. Did the Doge funds get unfunded? Yet? The stuff that Doge has found? I thought that's what the callback was. Callback is part of it. But they've done all these other things and showed all this other stuff. I don't see anybody griping that they don't have their money anymore. That's true. I've heard people complain that it's been caught. But did it get brought back? Is it back to zero? Is USAI d zero? You know what I mean? That's what I want to know. So those were my news. We don't know because they hit it. Remember they got rid of it and just stuck it in the state department, right? Did you just move it to somewhere else to night That's what I'm talking about. I'm not big fans of that anyway. That's my ten mount rushmorees. What are you laughing at now? Because I don't have any Emma. You don't have one story you want to know, no. News story, how the dog failed on the whale something. I don't watch the news like I just I don't know. Dude. Do you not remember going to school where we had to have current events? Yeah? Did you ever do current events? Emma? I do in college. And you don't know anything now that you just have to do this. You're not doing liberty of service right now? That's fine? Good Lord? All right, Well I did enough for her, Emmy. Yeah, thanks for sharing. All right. I just got three things to say. God, bless our troops. God, bless America. Stock God. All right. So, Brian, I don't know if you've ever seen this video or not, but we did send Neil Armstrong to the moon. All right. Do you remember who the first woman was that went on the moon, Sally Rides. I think she just went in orbit. But this is if she had gone on the moon, this might have been what it sounded like. Cut fifteen Houston, We have a problem. What's the problem. Nothing, Seriously, what's the problem. Nothing? It's whatever. You don't care anyway, God, I love these. I have fallen in love of the gorilla. The girl babe. I laugh at every one of them. The damn jokes are freaking hilarious. They're usually racist too, but they're hilarious. They are the worst. That's where I heard the joke about how does a Mexican cut of pizza he uses little caesars? I know you told that one before, I think, but none still acted that which, by the way, I mentioned it earlier, but I was told this weekend my memory is about to improve with the use of b one. Oh, not ginko anymore. You know what I forgot about ginko. Emma's not HEARDing the story. We've got to tell it quickly. Yeah, I'm very confused, all right. So back in the day, this is a great story. Back in the day, we did not have We didn't have smartphones. We had just phones that you punched in the numbers, right, and we used to memorize phone numbers. That's how we got around. And somehow we could. We could memorize twelve different numbers. Do you remember that? No, Yeah, you just punched it into your little and so we had cell phones. Wow. I had a little issue where I couldn't remember my brother's phone number. I was having a little moment and I was probably twenty five years old, twenty six years old, and there used to be this ad for Ginko Beloba. It was a vitamin that you took that was supposed to help your memory. And my entire adult life, I've had problems with memory, like when something comes on Facebook and people know I post too much. But when things come up on Facebook, sometimes embarrassingly, I don't remember going there. I love the photos because I don't remember the trip. So anyway, I couldn't remember my brother's numbers, so I doubt it. I hope I'm telling this the right way. I doubt it. And when he answered, I was like, man, holy cow, this genko below but this shit's working like working great. And the guy goes, who's this? I said, oh, man, I thought. You were my brother. I guess it ain't working. Where the damn? And hung up. That person probably still thinks about it. So it's B one now, right. And I'm using B one started yesterday? So what makes you choose that one vitamin? Okay, this is what's funny. I wouldn't take this shot. I wouldn't take the COVID shot because I don't trust pharmaceuticals, right, But Catherine's sister is a pt This weekend and when I was doing the Low Country Boil that weekend, we spent with the Frenches and her sister was like, just like when I say know it all about everything, I mean it in a complimentary way, like you could say something. And she goes, well, you need to use this, need to use this. I mean, she was like brilliant and goes, the reason you're having problems is because you drink, and it's it's obviously. And I was like, well, I'm not going to stop doing that. She goes, well, B one can actually reverse some of that, and I was like, oh okay. So while we were sitting there, because I've been drinking, I went ahead on Amazon and I ordered B one that hit the house yesterday, and I was surprised. I wanted showed up and it's probably like, what the hell is this for? Marty ordered it for it's. A little blue deal. Oh man, even better so you get it from him? That would be D one. So did you know why you got the B one? Yeah? Yeah I did. I was kidding around, but yeah, yeah, So I we'll see. Maybe next week. I'll remember what we talked about. Listen, I remember little caesars. I just I remember my dad after that is fifth or sixth heart attack. I can't even remember now, oh gosh, how many it was. But he's started talking about how he took you know, more natural things, right, And I used to think he was, all right, Dad, you're getting up an age. This is ridiculous. But dude, I just finished eating a ginger chew. They're phenomenal. I love them. They're good for your gut supposedly, so I like those. I do like my hydrogen water. I have noticed a massive change in my knees. Okay, and of course I attributed to that stuff. But I will say, there's got to be natural, has to be better than the synthetic crap that we put in our body. I mean, that's what I think too. I mean a year ago I wasn't taking anything, and today I'm taking like five things, because when it was the fifty five jaritol or the you know what I mean, the one to day. I know, I really don't care about dying. I mean, it doesn't bother me. I don't know. I just want to be healthier. He probably doesn't do this, but I literally when I'm on vacation, I literally go, God, I wish they would come up with a fifty and older resort. I don't have to deal with people like I know that people by age are going through this. So when I was out at the Blaggio in Vegas, I'm thinking, what if you came up with a resort that's fifty and older, you don't have to deal with young punks. Huh, be smart. I would go in a heartbeat. I don't know. I want to hit the pool and see the hotties. Speaking of that, by the way, I got a oh nice. We didn't hear this story. I forgot to tell it. Long story. No, we did a couple of massages. Oh my god. I was about to say, Ashley, no, I guess you're. Right, dude. I'm telling you the rich people have it so nice and well, gosh, so what I'm telling you the truth. They have it really nice. So let me give you something that men have to go through that women do not. You're walking on slippery slope, my friend. No, no, no, no, this is not bad. You go to the salon, you go your separate ways. So there's a men's locker room. In a women's locker room, Trent knows. You walk into. I walk into. This is the Blagio, so it's really nice this lounge. And the guy says he I'll take you to your locker and he gives you the code that you can use or whatever, and he says, it's you know, it's ever how you want to be. Clothing's optional, right, which if you go to any Why in America, Trent knows it's clothing's optional. I never go nude, but I remember going down to the downtown Why when I was younger and deg one Jim Bibbie used to come in the hotel and I'm like, man, put some clothes on, like you're making me feel bad here. But anyway, so I go in. They give you a robe and I have swimming trunks on. Right, But dude, the rooms are laid out like there's a bathroom and then there's a bathroom. So there's a bathroom when you can go use a bathroom, and then there's this long bathroom with sinks and each sink has a razor, a comb like every tweezer, like everything you could do. And then if you walk out of that door. It overlooks the whole pool, so you can literally get in your robe, you know, take a shower, which I did, and then you can go out and just sit overlook the pool. There's no time limit to this, huh. It's all day. Once you've paid, you've got the access to it all day. We go into the there's a sauna, a steam room, four hot tubs, and then a cold plunge. I did the cold plunge, and I'm telling you right now, it's phenomenal feeling. But it's hard. It's not easy like. The ice bath. It's very difficult. Yeah. The water was thirty nine degrees, I think, and Bart says, how bad is it? And I couldn't speak, like I'm physically trying to breathe. And finally I was like, ah, man, it's rough. Like I think you're supposed to go in for ninety seconds and I come out and my bones were cold for another hour. You know what. Oh it took me two days to come back to the turtle. Oh my god. So but anyway, and you had your couple of massages. So my wife says to me, She says, oh, man, I was getting nervous because I heard your stomach growling, and I said, it won't mine. It was the missus. She said, oh my god, are you serious and I was like, yeah, it was not mine. Huh Like she thought, oh god, he's gonna have to use the bathroom or something. I was like, no, it was my missus. You don't do massages. It's been no, no, it's been a little while. I got one because of my back. It was so bad. One time I went to Marty found me one. I was I got Rick. That's some physical therapist, messius guy, and it did move darts would be Rick, which is yeah, Richard, Yeah. Now he was great. It was very comfortable. He made me feel very comfortable. Dude. I listen. That's the first thing she said, do you have any ailments? And I was like, oh my god, my calf muscle in my ankles are killing me. And I bet she worked for a half hour. Man. I felt good after that good. It was phenomenal. It really was, all. Right, do you want back to your back to the Kevin jumps in. Just let him jump in. But here's our next president. If you haven't heard his interview this week, I got a couple of clips. Here goes cut twenty. Because I'll tell you what, if I became president in two years from now or four years from now or three years from now, I would pick up the phone and call the President of House Salvador and say, you either send them back or I'm going to invade. It's a facking crime what they're doing. He's a fucking dictator thug with. Kelly or drump both. Okay, he's in an interview with a guy that's got a Philly's hat on. Yes, so I don't know who that guy is. He's got to be a podcaster or somebody popular on the liberal side, right, yep. His first answer is if I was president a year from now, two years from now, or three years from now. I mean that's his answer to start it. Which makes me worried, like does he know something that we don't know? So, yes, okay, let's not forget that. He's one of the people they talked about that was walking into sensitive classified areas and he's not uh what they call it classified. No, he's not cleared. He's not cleared, but he's but Joe is making him go with him. Yes, this guy thinks he's making decisions and that he's one of the Bidens that's carrying the Biden name. Here's another clip, cut twenty one. This is the smartest guy that Joe Biden knows well for someone. Am I going to be like all these Democrats say, you have to talk about and realize that people are really upset about illegal immigration? Fuck you, how do you think your hotel room gets cleaned? How do you think you got food on your fucking table? Who do you think washes your dishes? Who do you think does your fucking garden? Who do you think is here by the fucking sheer, fucking just grit and will that they've figured out a way to get here because they thought that they could give theirselves in their family a better chance. And he's somehow convinced all of us that these people are in the fucking criminals. Which that is what our government was being run like, we let them all across. He if Trump had said, these are the people that are doing your beds, these are the people that are putting food on your table. I mean you're saying brown people are our slaves, correct, that's what you're doing. Well, someone similar to him is on the line. Ah, another brown. Guy like Gingers in the ice train. CAROLINEA can. Like that guy again? What up Kevin? When nobody. Let me just? Did you just finish picking vegetables? Dude? This dude works his a off in the garden this weekend. Did he? Yeah? He never sends me anything anymore. Dude, I want some tomato juice shipped. Up to me. You just got food doing to Maade of South Homemade. Let me mark where I was at have at it so we can make sure. Oh my god, your segment's got to be short, Kevin. Where was you at it? Had at it? I was? I love it. I was three of five clips deep, it was three fingers deep. We were just we were listening. He got excited, and then all of a sudden he just kind of wielded because Carolina Kevin was coming on and he was just getting stuck. I paused the train to let the other train go by. No, I'm just gonna hook to you and carry you with me because I am the train right. On m We haven't had a train go by today, have we am I wrong? I remember one going by. An automobile. So we have a. Already picked my three by the way for the race today. All right, who are you well? Kevin, who are your three for the race at Indy. And are you excited about it being brickyard again, the real brickyard. Yeah, because I rode around the track, I got. Yeah, I don't know that I knew that. Yep. When I went with Brey, we went up to the farm trip and we went up to Indiana and we stayed there, and then we got to take a tour of the track and go up into the great big tall sky things there by the track, and we got to go walk the bricks and we rode around the whole track, and then we went up there or Dale Walter and them used to sit and roar, the commentators sit and all that stuff. So and we went over to where you drive a car up on the stage and it lifts all the way up to the like, yeah, yeah, it was pretty cool. Indianapolis's thanks. So who you got this weekend? Who are your three? Uh? Blainey's gonna probably be number one, Butcher be number two. And then I got Ti Gibbs mm hmm. Yeah. So you got Ty Gibbs winning for the first time ever and winning a million dollars. Yep. How even the last one to survive? How would he win. It is ty Gibbs in the final. It's ty Gibbs versus Tyer. Yeah. Oh, I didn't know that was a Ty Gibbs versus the really good guy, the short guy. Well he's short too, but tick taler reddick ty Gibbs. Okay, I did not know that. Wow. Yeah, so you got him winning a million and his first race ever. Yeah, you imagine that happened at the brickyard. That would be phenomenal. It'd be a memorable one. H Who you got, b. Oh, I'm gonna go with uh Eric Jones to be my dark horse and uh Chris Busher and my front runner if you want to call it, that is William Byron. I've got Larson Byron Bowman. I just got a Rick Hendrick. I took the Rick Hendrick. Stace Oomen's right there, man, you know. But his odds if you look, he's down, he's right down there, Blue Ross Chastain, he's down at the lower group of them, which I was kind of surprised Ross was that far down. But ten dollars gives me three hundred and thirty a few wins. Hey, what did you what did either one of you think of Richard Childress's line at the end of the race. He's right, he is right, But I mean, you don't say that in Monday morning meeting. So Richard Childress said at the end of the race on the radio that Kyle Busch could hear is we got to bring better cars. I mean, you're the owner, you should. You obviously have a say in that, right. So I would think that Kyle Busch liked hearing that. Okay, I'm sure he agrees with it. He didn't respond though, did he that I could tell? Mm hmm. Is Kyle Busch with him again next year? Yeah, okay, that's good. By the way, there should be some study done, Emma. If you're not doing anything this weekend or Kevin, you could bring it next week. Is look to see the disparity between teammates. Who's the farthest up in the farthest down, you know, like Verstapping is to whoever the second driver is for Red Bull. But I can't imagine a bigger gap than Austin Dillon to Kyle Busch. Yeah. I would agree with that one hundred percent. There's no way I'm gonna look up. I mean, Bubba Wallace has improved a little bit a Tyler Reddick and Bubba used to be that big split, but but Bubba's gotten better. Oh shit, Oh sorry, I had something in my throat. So I mean, I'm saying this, and I know you don't think I'm crazy, but I mean, how would you not put Tyger Gibson that he's one nothing? Yeah? Ever, yeah, it's his third year. Yeah, Harrison Bird. He's gonna step for birth. I still think so too. He'll end up stepping it up. He's gonna he just needs to get him a team together. He's got the talent to drive, he's got to have a team, which means is he's he also has downfalls in the pits with his pit crew and with his spotter and stuff. So he's a hell of a driver, just like I told Trent back years ago about kol Larson. And I'm just telling you these young young kids, Dude, they're kids. Imagine what you were doing eighteen years old. You own up fair driving in a major event, even. With you. But Eric Jones was a kid. He got fired from Gibbs for not winning, even though he had won twice with Gibbs. Joey Logano got fired from Gibbs because he didn't win enough. This guy has won nothing in three years, and we keep hearing that he's the next big thing. That's just like Austin Dillon. It's just grand baby, you know what I mean. Well, that's what I keep thinking. Yes, yeah, of course, of course he's got more leeway Joe Gibbs is and letting his grandson go. He's not. But at what point in time do you? I mean, look at Chase Briscoe. Look how good he's running right now. Yeah, I'm surprised by that too. By the way, I'm pleasantly surprised, right So, I'm just he might he might be a good one. I hope this weekend right now? All right, let me give you let me give your scenario real quick. Let me give you one. Trent agreed or not. I do agree? If you say it. How many years let me finish. How many years does a awesome quarterback used to be that come from college? How many years did they set the ditch in the NFL before they even got to even play a NFL game? Yeah, definitely two and they become. And they've become great. So what I'm saying is is if they gave up on Troy Adman, and they gave up on Tom Brady, and they gave up on Drew Bledsoe and all these good quarterbacks. You gotta give them a chance. Brian, You I mean, yes, he's young and all in, but still you can't categorize him in with Ty Dillon and Austin Dylon. I didn't say that because I'm saying. It's not the same characteristic he has of those guys. Chase Briscoe leaves Hoss comes there in a new car and is winning. Right. Denny Hamlin has a win. Yeah, everybody in their stable has a win except Gibbs. And what I'm trying to tell you is Harrison Burton. Where's he at right now? He's not in Cup? Yeah, but he did win and he's still not in Cup yep. But they shouldn't have put him in Cup. Brian, you're at these days right now. You don't have the people that are driving in those in the what we used to call the bush races. You don't have the drivers in NASCAR the Cup races. Plentiful holds some drivers like he did back in the eighties and nineties. That's why they dropped the amount of people that race is in a race. That's why that Denny Hamlin is sticking around for twenty some years. You got to understand the difference between those drivers and the ones now is like, why do you think everything the seedings went from one hundred percent to fifty They're trying to feel the void of getting younger and younger and younger. Kyle Busch, I mean, Kyle Petty. How many years did he drive and how many races did he win? Do you think he was just out there for his for his talent or do you think he was out there because of his dad. I think he was out there because of his dad, and he was And so that's the same thing you're making my argument for Gibbs. He's out there because of his granddad. But you're saying he's going to be the next big thing, by the way. Because you've not given him a chance. Cal Peddie had twenty one years, he's only ad three or two. And ass do you. Guys notice at the end of races, where it doesn't matter who's doing the broadcast, they always show you where the cut line is and. Who's in correct, right? Yes, Why is it. That when you go to NASCAR or ESPN. You can't get the same list. I'm looking at it now. You're right, NASCAR. Has the worst website other than the VHSL website, which is the worst in history. The NASCAR website is the second worst in the international world wide Web. It's awful. You don't know who's in. No, I agree, you can't look at the list. I mean, and I'm looking at ESPN right now just to see. And I think ESPN is still doing it by points by points, and they got Shane van Gettensberg in twenty sixth then points correct. I mean, that's awful. How can you win four races, three races whatever? He's got bad outside of this. I know, and I finished last last week, which is kind of embarrassing, but I keep thinking he should be moving up. But man, that why wouldn't they give you the list of who's in? I agree, yeah, not good. But it does tell you just how bad that Austin Dillon is. Yeah. I do like it for that reason. So I wish there was like when you go to F one, you can hit constructors and you can hit I wish they would do standings and then they would say who's in, where you could look at the list, but they don't do that. So if Tied Dylan was in a better ride, would he be better? Or do you think he's in a good ride. I think ty Dillon had his chance. He's lucky to be in racing, I think, is what I'm thinking. I don't disagree, but I think he's done a decent job in that ten. So would you say the best Joe Gibbs racer is Denny Hamlin. Yes, right, So he's fourth in like real points and Ty Gibbs is sixteenth. That's actually higher than I thought. I don't know Ty Gibbs was that high. But if you take Cole Bush, he's fifteenth and Austin Dillon is twenty eighth, that's thirteen apart. That's pretty big. That's a big gap. That's what I was trying to see is who's got the biggest gap. How about between teammates? Well, I've got you one even better than that. Okay, how about Chris Busher at tenth and his teammate Keselowski is thirty. The owner That's hilarious. He's moved up a little bit. He's twenty seventh. Now, well, that's anold one. Ryan Priest Yeah, fourteenth in points. That's kind of amazing. I think it is too. He's ahead of his own his teammate too, right, I mean his owner too. Yeah. I agree with Veron Hart Junior. On his podcast. He said something that I agree upon one hundred percent. He's like, look, if I'm Austin Dylan, I'm gonna start getting more involved into taking over the range of my granddaddy. Correct, Because if you gonna be the face of Richard Children's you've got to start infiltrating into the side of marketing and making deals and being the face of Richard Children's racing. So they don't have no one and he's he would be I think better if he gets involved in knowing the ropes and stuff and eventually methodically make his way out of out of a Cup series. But when do we start looking at Richard Children's racing honestly, as if it's like the old Miami. It hasn't been relevant since nineteen ninety six. I mean, Tyler Redick was okay and cow Boys has been okay, but they haven't done anything since Earnhardt. Honestly, that is correct. That's the last championship they won, Kevin, So they haven't done anything in twenty five years. Isn't that crazy? Speaking of Earnhardt that he's the last person that has died in a car, That is just isn't that wild? Weird? The Hans device in the walls or that. That wreck we saw with Cody ware dead. Yeah, I also will say this, and I'm gonna take up for them in this a sense nobody has ever experienced as an owner ever losing an icon like that. Oh ever, no doubt, No. I agree with you, but you have nothing that you can have a market analysis to this combined or say we weigh this against this, like you had the most dominant driver ever that brought NASCAR where it is and when he died, I'm just sorry that that organization died with it. Yeah, there's a lot more to resignation than something like that, with something that traumatic happening. I disagree with you. Well, probably because you ain't never had nothing like that happened to you. No, they survived. They had the right driver to take them through that, and instead of sticking with Kevin Harvick, you brought in your two grandsons. Let's stop sugarcoating it. That's true. You let Harvick walk out of your organization and ever since then you have been crap. By the way, a big gap ross Taestana's twelfth. Daniel Suarez is twenty ninth. Please he is. He's just as bad as a WNBA player. It's none of it's his fault. Oh Suarez? Yeah, yeah, for him to blame track House Racing, Yeah, it's just But let's not forget when he left Petty what he said that it was atrocious, Lee Ran Was it Petty that he was in? Yeah, he won't be a NASCAR next year, Willie. Yes you do think, yes, you do. Yes, he brings money, Okay, that is a lot of it now, unfortunately, I believe you. That's why Ty Gibbs is still in his car. He brings monster energy. Why Riley Herps as his ride? Yeah? What do you bring? Have at it? Lord? Oh? We forgot to mention Kevin. There's a coaching change here in Bedford. Oh yeah, literally a week before football start. Gosh, how awful is that? Liberty is looking well, they've they've put an introm in. They lost their football coach. So what you're saying Liberty High School? Yes? Who was a football take. A guy named Robertson, Darryl Robertson. It was like, oh to thirty, Oh. They can go down now twenty four and pay the man some money. And Sharnas would probably think coach for three or four years. No, he ain't coming back, get Wats to come back, save the program. Now he signed with Rusburg, so he's him and Sharnas are retiring together. Who's the head coach at Rossburg? They hired a guy from oh, shoot, what's that college? That the Appalachian State? Okay, yeah, wow, he's a recent graduate. Tight end? Nice. How lucky is he to come into a situation where his mentors are Mike Sharness Chris Watts and uh shoot, good lord, just like you need some be one? I do Torrns Bert Torrens. That may be double digits state champions because I think, no, the Bird's got three, Mike's got five, four or five, and then Chris has got one. So now hmm all right close, Yeah. I'm gonna sign Brad Bailey up h here, Yeah, all right? Moving on? What is your partying ways today? Uh? Tream, you have a grounded very. Before yes, I can't remember why, Brian. Did you have a ground Logan, Yes, mutually with Ashley, because you know, receive the queen. What'd you ground him for? Trent? He one time talked back to a teacher who emailed me and we had a little come to Jesus moment. I didn't. I didn't ground him. I shook the crap out. Good Lord. I grabbed him one time at a he gave me an attitude. I had bought tickets to a Nationals game and I was standing in line getting drinks and I said, what do you want? He said, mumbled, and I couldn't hear it. I asked three times and then he yelled at the top of his lungs, right in my face. Coke and dude. It just was one of those things. Sometimes the big bull's gotta let the little bullse the big bull. I let him know and never had an issue from him ever. Yes, Kevin, did you have to do? Oh well, ground Dylan or something? Yeah? Grown to Dylan. I come in the living room with shit. He was in there at chewing on damn electric cord. So I had to grammy, all right, this show. Can't get any word. Listen to what CNN does. Listen to how CNN covers the story of Tulsi. Tulsi steps in for Levitt, right, Levin is doing She's doing her things, she's bringing receipts, and so Tulsi is coming to talk about the biggest story. It's either Obama or Hillary. I'm not sure which one she's doing here. Oh, it's the Russian collusion hoax. So she's coming to talk about the problem. Look how CNN covers this cut twenty. Five Multiple intelligence community assessments released in the months leading up to the November twenty sixteen election concluded that Russia had neither the intent nor capability to impact the outcome of the US laction. On December fifth. We've been listening there to the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsea Gabbard, continuing on what has now been a multi day effort not only with public statements like this, but release of documents to attempt to back up the quite extreme allegation street an Obama is guilty of treason and that he worked in some sort of conspiracy with Hillary Clinton, et cetera. In the assessment et cetera by the intelligence community at the time that Russia interfered in the twenty sixteen election. Okay, why wouldn't you just little talk. Of course not they knew what it was. She's given the timeline so Obama obviously, and I had a clip that I didn't bring today because I knew we were going to be full today. But she's getting me to get the timeline of Obama having the meeting where he changes what the security what the class what the uh uh this class Brie clearance? Yeah. Yeah, they that they had said said there was no Russian conspiracy to interfere with the election. Like I don't. I don't think. See here's the problem. They have convoluted the issue so much that they try to compartmentalize it to oh, look, Russia collusion, We've had so many. What they don't tell you is we don't forget when Trump won. Immediately they started saying that Russia had that had interfered and they started a congressional hearing that we're now found finding out that they falsified documents in order to have That's the important news that they just won't cover. And you know what, I honestly like, I like the idea that we're going to go through that and if we keep saying trader and treason brand him that's what he is. Brand is not the right word. Just that how he should be laid. Label him as a trader in a treatment. By the way, I think he's the biggest trader treason us that we've had in as a president. Now, is it weird that we chose a lifelong Republican to do this? No, you talk about Tulsi? Yeah, oh no, yeah, exactly, she was on their side. Oh wait a minute, she's not a lifelong Republican. Exactly did she ever run for president? That's right, and the Dems kicked her out. But why did they kick her out? Yeah? Wasn't she a anti Hillary? Worse than that, wasn't she a Russian agent? Oh? Yeah, that's right, that's what Hillary said about her. I mean, it's you can't make this stuff up, but they did. Yeah. It's unbelievable the crap that they put. Oh I love it, man. Yeah. Play their game. They've been doing it with lies. Play their game with the truth. Stop hiding the truth. Listen to this, man, This is what I talk about. This is my winning cut. This is the cut forty seven winning cut of this question would not have been asked five years ago. Trump has changed the narrative that lets people start asking the real question. You know who Pierce Morgan is. Yeah, okay, this is Pierce Morgan interviewing in my Mount Rushmore of the people that we hate on TV. There's Jamel Hill, and then there's this goofball Joy Reid. Didn't she get fired? Yes she was fired. Now listen to him ask her this question. Listen how she responds. I mean, look, let's be honest. I don't think you were fired after all those years because if. You're a skin color, because you're a black woman. I think you were fired because your show just got increasingly unpopular. It happens all the time in TV. That's why you got to let go. Why play the race card? First of all, I love the fact that your play the race card is. Your version of the race card. You literally are so fixated on trying to racialize conversations with me, Pierce, that I find it actually que. Her conversation. Bosting All right, peers. And the bottom line is, you take an entire conversation that I had with Mark Lamont Hill and pick the bits that you can racialize, because this is your stick. And I get that, this is your I get it, and I understand. This is your stick, peers and listen. Game recognized the game, I get. This is the bottom line, and everyone night. And it is so interesting to me that you yourself, as a white European, when people of color talk about race, that you believe is racializing conversations. But when people like you fixate on what Barack Obama was a black president, why don't you object to that? That is racializing a conversation about the former president of the United States. But you can't put you and I'm sure you find that charming and funny. Donald and your friend Donald are so is well. I dude, at least they're saying it right. We're not afraid. We finally have somebody saying not just somebody, but it's it's it's moving all around. So to end the show, mm hmm, it is a little bit different today. We're bringing into this greatness before I fall in the floor. That's probably the best part of the show. What was funnier I was to watch you do this while I was talking to you. Two minutes later, he just kept going up and eventually you were like this. I don't know who's sitting in that to get new chairs, and he said I fixed them. He did. It wasn't a problem. I thought, you ordered a new chair while we were interviewing the last guy. Mm hm, dude, it made me so uncomfortable, the popping and the cracking. I could not I could not concentrate. And it was one of my favorite interviews. I loved him. What you were on the phone with him, I thought, you literally did order a chair. You said you ordered a chair. Yeah, no, that'd be one, he said. Brian, you literally said you're going to order a chair. No, no, I told what he and he said, I will, And then he called me and told me that he would fix. All of them. He did fix them. Okay, well he fixed that one really good. Doesn't pop when I'm laying in the floor, all right. You know how like your algorithms, you get things on TikTok. Dude, this dude, I have to watch almost every one of them. This is like this guy reminds me. Do you remember Blues Clues? That's what makes emma laugh? Do you remember that guy? Okay, this is a guy that gives you these facts and dude, I got riveted by this one. So what he talks about is the population of India and compares it to the rest of the world. And when you hear these facts, it's like staggering. It's only three minutes. So that's how we end the show. It's on some educational it's kind of staggering. Stats. What do we is this? Flags? What do we do? Really crying? Huh? What what is it about? You didn't listen what I just told you? Stats? Right, stats of what? Yeah, it's India, the population of India, and we care. This is really interesting stuff. Wait till you hear these things compare the amount of people they have. Okay, you'll be fascinated. After you're going to be like, holy shit, that was interesting. Yeah, I guess you have to say it next week. All right, everybody, have a good week. Say I are there so many people here? No? Seriously, why are there so many people? In South Asia? Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh have more than two billion people between them, twenty five percent of the Earth's population on less than four percent of its land. In fact, just this area here in dark red abutting the south slope of the Himalayas, comprising all the regions which drain out. Through the Ganges River delta. In Bangladesh has more. Than seven hundred and fifty million people, all in an area the size of Turkey. I want you to imagine taking every man, woman and child in the US, Mexico, and Canada and putting all of. Them into Texas. That's what this would be like. But only if you also took every person in Germany, France, and the United Kingdom and moved them into and you know what, just for good measure, let's add every single Australian as well. Seven hundred and fifty million people in three hundred thousand square miles comes out to twenty five hundred people per square mile. Frame of reference. Well, the most densely populated of America's fifty states is New Jersey. And I don't know if you've ever been to New Jersey, but it feels pretty dang full. Guess the population nity of New Jersey. It's twelve hundred people per square mile, half that of the Indo Gangetic Plain. So we don't have any states that compare. We gotta get smaller. The most populous county in the United States is Los Angeles County, which, with more than ten million people, has more people than every state here in Blue La County is smaller than the state of Connecticut and is home to the country's second largest city, an endless sea of suburbs and concrete. What do you think the population density is here? It's about twenty five hundred people per square mile. How is it possible that you could have this across an area the size of Texas and nobody talks about it. Ten percent of all the human beings alive on Earth live here. This is by far and away the most common way that people live in the world. If you were to randomly respawn tomorrow, the most likely bet is that you would wake up here as either a subsistence farmer or a resident in one of the dozen enormous mega cities. It's crazy out here. Bangladesh alone has more people than Russia despite being less than one percent the size. There are on. Average three thousand people per square mile in this country or tek Utak Pradesh, for example, India's most populous state, which if it were its own country, would be the fifth largest country in the world, with a quarter billion people in a state the size of Oregon. The crazy part is that's not all of it. The rest of India is another billion people and the rest of Pakistan and Afghanistan add another three hundred million one point three billion additional people, or like one extra China. This is evolutionarily just the ideal human biome. With tons of moisture, largely flat land and super fertile soil, the environment here can support obscene populations, and with a population pyramid that looks like this, the explosion is far from over. Expect the population of this area to peak sometime between twenty fifty and twenty sixty at about two and a half billion people, before it levels off and starts shrinking like the rest of the world. I don't really have a point here. I think it's just insane that so many human beings called this place home, twice the population of the entire United States, and yet in the US we hear comparatively little about it versus other regions of the world. Makes you want to travel here and see what all the fuss is about. If you're from this part of the world, or if you've been there, let me know what it's like. Does it feel as dense as La County when you're there. I'm really curious. Anyways, Thank you so much for watching. Follow from more geography content,
