Hello everybody, welcome to another episode of Life Liberty Happiness. We are live in the David Honaker State Farm Studios, Trip Warner in the studio. That was John Waite missing you. That was a shout out there for Woody. He's not in the producer's chair. Welcome back, Emma. Hello. You know how long we told him that if he could just find some help, how much you love life? He custed us and now he just left us, yelled at us, just ignored us. And now it's like anybody know where he is currently in our beach feed up? Yeah, it's like five o'clock somewhere. EM's got to deal with that. BS now, thank you to our sponsors. Charlene up at seeing US Business Services up at Northern Maine Professional. She does a wonderful job, takes care of everything. Oh my lord, I forgot to do something. Just remembered you. Let me take her to the show where you make a note. Please don't let me forget. I need to do this anyway. Welcome to the show. We have a really jam packed show today, second hour, top ten. I know you probably went what and then? Well I saw the theme I saw before, so I kind of thought it fit the theme, dude, as I started going down there. All right, so let me tell you a funny story real quick. Are you gonna tell everybody with the theme? Are you? I'm setting it up? So Clark Clarkston Farm, right, Yeah, we watched that, all right. The mushrooms, Yes, they've convinced me. I have bought lines me lines mean mushrooms. Oh my god. So I'm reading I've seen videos where people swear to it that it has major health benefits. So I'm like, it's you do know there's mushrooms to kill you. But I know that, But this is FDA approved, So you put a little bit in your coffee. So I thought, all right, that's cool, so I ordered it, came on Amazon next day, love it. This morning, I reach in the bag, I get, you know, maybe a quarter of a teaspoon, yeah, so or a tablespoon. And I'm reading the package and it says one gram of lines made a day in your coffee. So I look at the spoon and I'm like, ah, that's probably one gram, and I put it my coffee and my coworker goes, wait a minute. I just googled it one gram. There's fifteen grams and a teaspoon, and I was like, oh my god, I'm overdosed on day one. So one of the things it's supposed to do is help your cognitive skills and your memory. Right, you've already forgotten some you were supposed to do. No, no, well you did. I did. I've never forgotten that I've had a busy day. Yeah. So anyway, I come up with the top ten list of crazy things they made us do in school. Yeah, like, I just not, so I'm naming them and he goes, holy cow, that stuff's working. I can't even remember going to elementary school. Yeah, so I think it's working already. So your top ten is crazy things they made us do in school. Okay, yep, that's coming up an hour or two. And trust me, if you stick around, you will you'll go. They did make us do that. Some of the stuff was like torture. Some I read what it was because it triggered a few things for me too. And then I wondered, as I'm writing it, do they till like them do this stuff? That would be some of it? I think they still do. All right, Well, Emma's in the studio. We'll find out. Well, she's just frushed out of house. We can trust her or not. She's a senior at Liberty, But I do Marcus Hill called me today, the head of school board Bevert County. We could have him in here and ask him these questions. Okay, yeah, do you whip kids? They should definitely bring that back. I've changed the whole world, wouldn't it? All Right? Onto this day in history and now for the rest of the story, This day in history on light, liberty, happiness, all right, on this day in nineteen eighty nine, cut one? Did you do it on purpose? It was my fault? I told her the wrong door. How were we supposed to see her? She wasn't supposed to see somewhat Well, ordinarily I wouldn't mind, but but what Well, I just got back from swimming in the pool and the water was cold. You mean shrink it? Yes? Oh? Then Seinfeld opened up on this day in nineteen eighty nine. It was the first airing of Seinfeld. That's hard to believe. It seems like it'd have been longer than go than that. I know, what I think is funny is on this day in history when I look up, I always wonder if what you're gonna bring? And it was like Teneman Square was today. Oh no, I had to go with Seinfeld because I knew that was one of your favorites. I love it, man, was there was a time it was still. I mean that show was so good. There's still stuff that comes up every now and then that you just quote it well. I mean, that was one of my favorite episodes. Shree Kids was so funny. Like there's a line right after that where Elaine goes, I don't see how y'all live through things? Yeah? Oh me? All right? Moving on to drama Tenement Square, nobody cares me. I mean it was a failure on I don't even remember what was Tenement square though. You remember that guy that was standing from the tank and he had and then the people protested. But I mean, why do we celebrate it when that failed? They're not a democracy. That's what I've always thought. You know how often that happens that we no? No, I mean I think it we celebrate something, that celebrate something that actually didn't work. Yeah, yeah, that's a good example. What was there a point where they trying to become a democracy. I can't remember what the point of the Tenement Square was. Maybe you need a little lines, mate, that's true. Remember the Ginko loved the story. It's working great, it didn't work at all? All right, Uh, all right, I gotta ask you a question, because this is a you're saying asked. I got to ask you a question. So Billy the Kid, it was really done well, and I was upset that that was the first season and I didn't get to see a second season because it's gotten you right up into the art of Lincoln County. So it's it's really good. Now I'm scrolling through Amazon, there's a season two. I saw that I'm so excited. I click on it. Guess what gotta pay for it? Freaking MSG or whatever? What is that? MSM, MSN, what is it call? It's Mary Gold MGM MGM. Okay, they get you. So that's funny you mentioned that because I'm meant to ask you that this weekend. So last week, like you had got me hooked on Clarkson. Last week you talked about Billy the Kid. So I went and looked forward to see if I would like it, and it said season one and season two, and I saw you had to pay for season two. I was like, well, I mean, why would I want to start that. I'm meant to ask you if you had known that. My wife and I looked at each other and she's like, do you want to just do the MGM or whatever? And I was like, no, I don't make a stand. But what did you say, stop living here at the minimal PLA? No? I mean certain there's certain principles. Yeah, don't get me hooked on something then try to make me buy it. But it's every seven day trial. Surely I can cancel. Oh my god, I never do those things because I never canceled. I forget about it. Absolutely, That's that's why they get you. Yeah, it is so you would your own principal. No, it's a no go. We just wait for it to come out, even start it. Yeah, I'd wait to make sure the season's over. Yeah, because I know they figure nobody's buying this crap. Will just release it, will yeah, or Netflix will pick it up. All right, I've got a must watch for you. Yes, have you seen it? Loved it? Dude? How we can't believe. I can't believe it's been that long that you wouldn't have known it was out. First of all, that's been out a while. Did you remember who she was? I did not know this story at all. Well, you're going to have to explain, all right. So the movie is Molly's Game. Have you seen this, Emma? It says crime and thriller and that's not really up my alley. Oh but there's so much. No, it's way more than that. No way, there's a crime and this is this is the Poker thing? Right? Oh my god? What are you? Tom and Jerry? Yes, no, it's a great movie. It really is. You're talking about the Poker thing right where they got the games? Yes, I mean it's a true story. I didn't know that. I didn't know that. Oh yes, it's a real life true story. And that's why I was wondering if you had ever remembered this when it was going on, Like I don't either. I mean, it seems like that would have been about her eight. I mean, you know, it must be something in the rotation of Molly's Game, because less than three weeks ago, my other friend Brian texted me have you seen Molly's Game? I was like, yeah, I did. I remember loving it, but it's been a while since I've seen it. Oh my god, it's really good. Yeah, I mean it has everything you want in a movie. It has the stars and Kevin Kusler and I don't I don't know who the woman was, but I mean she played a really good actress. Didn't she like one of those CSI people. Maybe, yeah, But it had a little bit of it had crime, but it had it was a thriller, but it was all different. It's I love smart stuff. Yeah it was. But I was shocked, and I'm not giving anything away. I was shocked that it's legal to gamble like a poker game. I had no idea. I didn't I didn't know one way or the other. She was raking in four million, but she was. It was you gotta just pay taxes, yeah, and she did. That's not what they got her for. That's why I was like, holy crowd, because she hired an attorney when she first started to make sure it was legal. And as long as you don't take from the game, it's all legal. So she was making front of money from bet I mean from tips, which is nuts, but it's just anyway. Yeah, I remember, it's good. It's a it's a recommendation for our listeners to watch. Yes, Brian French, it was good. Chout out to Brian. Great Brians. Think like it's a new slogan. Oh, I got a great slogan for Carolina. Kevin this week he already preemptively called me before the show. Have you all got that thing fixed yet? I said, actually, Kevin, it is a AI program that cuts off when listeners stopped listening to the program, you'd never come on. Oh we love you, Kevin. I do have to preface something though, because it is a slang for Kevin if I remember to do it when he's on. But Emma is bothering me me that because she says she can't watch a rat a R movie. I never said I can't. I think I've seen one ever. Yeah, I see your judgment on your face right now, om on camera. Yes, I see you. Sorry forget the a roll. Last question of drama. Yeah. Do you lie or you tell the truth to friends when it comes to food? You know me, I don't know. I think you would lie. Now you wouldn't go oh, man, that's good, but you wouldn't be like, God, that's awful. I don't think you're that person. I don't no, I'm not go. Well, it depends on how close the friend is. Well, it was you, I would say right off the bat, like you would mean, do you Oh my god, don't put that in my mouth. You were there, you were there this weekend, and that was an episode. I think you missed it. It might have been Friday when when it was there. But there was a dish that was put on the table, and man, I took one bus foodful and it was not good. And I never said a word. Your brother went to get something and I'm like, I was able to warn him, don't do it. Oh, it was not good at all. And of course it wasn't your uncle. He makes everything terrific. Yeah, it was not. I see what you're saying. So like, let's let's I was just thinking of that. Let's say my uncle Perry had a friend Vicky, that came over and brought a meat load. I would probably take a bite of it and just throw it in the trash when she ain't looking, or give it to the dog. And I just wouldn't say anything out loud. No, I wouldn't tell her this was coldslaw. How do you mess up cold slaw? Oh? God? Coldslaw is very tricky. Really. Yes, it can be great and it can be off. That's one of those reunion foods that you got to make sure it's the right person bringing it. I mean, I've had coldslaw that was too sweet, and I've had some that may have been too uh, you know, too big. The lever cabbage is too big. But I've never had awful tasting until recently. I don't know. I buy those little container ones and half of them are any good. Okay, Yeah, now you can get the too tangy. Yeah, I agree with you there or man, so you're like a two way all right, what's your recommendation? You have two. So Marty and I watched this thing and it's called Cloviag Killer Clovage killer, so clovig c l O ve e h I T C H clove hitch it's a knot. It's a knot that the boy Scouts do, like you know how they learn all the knots. What's a serial killer that uses a clove hitch knot to tie his ladies up before he kills them and he did it for ten years? Why do you watch this stuff? I don't know. I just kind of get into it. I mean, it wasn't graphic, it wasn't too graphic. I'm just saying he'd spent ten years killing these ladies and then ten years didn't. So everybody was like, they're still trying to find who it is. And then he does it again. Oh man, that is intense. Although I just get irritated at the woke stuff that happens, they just say you have to you have to get through some of that tears was crazy. I couldn't remember what the name of it was. Suddenly that lines mean you talked about, but so I googled it to find out what the name of it was for the show. So I could say something today. It was a true story. Really, I didn't even know it wow till today, which added even another dynamic to it. Clovig killer, Clovig killer. Ye. And then if you can thirty for thirty Yeah, watched the one with uh they called her the black lived Janet Lee. I think Jeannette Lee and something. Yeah, she's pool player. She was amazing. Oh, she was gorgeous and yeah, I had that charisma about it all and did not know how to play pool at all in college. Are you serious? She just went to a pool hall and just like that, just started loving it and from sun up to sundown that's all she did. Wow. And she met the right people that taught her how to play and she started winning tournaments. Is it PG? Thirteen to Emma and one? It's rated g am. I you can watch it all right on the sports. It's time for sports, all right, Marty said, Nope. He tells me my food is bad all the time. Hey, I mean, you just want to make sure it's different when you But I'm talking about right about somebody tell strangers if you're if you're at a let me answer your question. Let's frame it this way. If you're at a church and you're going down the aisle and you're picking your food and then you you go, oh god, that's not good. You would do that like in no, like, all right, let's see you going back for seconds and you're walking down. I can pass it and you but you wouldn't tell the person next to you a stay away from that. That's no. I wouldn't tell them that. But if the person saw me skip it and they say, hey, you didn't like the meat balls, I would go no, just not my style. Marty made those. That's why we put our name on the label, so they know to just go pass it without saying anything. Oh my god, that is hilarious. Sorry, Marty. I'm sure there's something we can come up with. It's good, all right. Sports Nascar, Yeah, we'll get We'll go through this quickly because we don't want to spend too much time on NASCAR, right. Uh. NASCAR was an Illinois speedway. I guess it's called Gateway or some kind of crap apparently. I mean, if you did watch the track that it was packed. It was a nice crowd. It was a very nice crowd, and they were loud. Boston Syndrome one Centric syndrome. What do you call that? It's their guest Tyler Panell. Oh he does. I was on that. You know he always down plays that car. I think that car looks bad, the freight liner car. He gives it a low score every week. And I'm telling you everything looks sharp. But he also doesn't like uh look looks we already know is just kidding. I will say the Joey Logano paint scheme is one of the best. Oh yeah, class classic. Yes, gotta have it in the track, but kudos to Cindric. It really bad for Blaney. You know why it feels so bad because I had ten bucks on him to finish in the top three and he runs out of gas on the last night. So I do I do enjoy the perspective of a a what do they call him a crew chief? Huh okay uh. I saw it on NASCAR whatever Fox that show the race Hub where he explained the difference between sindri Did you see that? That was amazing the fee Look, I never would have thought that. Which Larry mcgnnold's is he not the hardest working person? Yeah? And which I don't like his voice, but man, he brings such good information. But did you see where they talked about the two car used two gas cans versus the one because it sucks quicker. Yeah, and I was like, man, you want that on your team. Yeah. So anyway, Austin Sindric wins the NASCAR race there at Sonoma this week. Yeah, so I'm curious to see if Shane Van Ginsburg is gonna race in that race, because this will be their first road course this year, right, yeah, and he's probably due. I mean he won Infinity race last week too, correct, but he hasn't He hasn't raced. I don't think in Cup this year. I think he did. I think he has raced because I remember watching it for him. He only finished. Then I thought he only races Infinity. Uh, and then the only Cup races he has is is road courses. I'm pretty sure it was even like it a his first oval. He may be Daytona, but I'm not really counting, Okay, Yeah, I'm just saying this is his first. Real If he comes in and wins that, NASCAR may have to rethink it's road courses because he's just gonna win all of them, which is good because then then maybe they'll catch up. I don't know. I'm not a big road course guy. So but who you got, Let's go Keselowski, Okay, Denny Hamlin seems to do good at road courses too. But so there's a bunch of good ones. So hey, did you see that? Old man's gonna come back and do it? The the guy that's that was the road corpse specialist, the guy from California. It's really good. It's curly headed, dude said he It's gonna be there, Dude, I love NASCAR fans. They just that's the best part about nascars. They're fans. Yeah. I mean they used to do the sidheads. It dude sucked, but they wore wigs, okay, and they called it the said head. He still looks the same man, That's all I like. Bor said, all right on to f one. Uh Perez, their guy Red Bull signs a two year extension. Shocked by that. I'm wondering what's going on with that. And the reason, excuse me, the reason I said that is Red Bull has really taken the I forget what it's called now, the Alfatari or the Saber whatever, that second Red Bull team, and they've really moved it up up to be able to get better finishes. They've they're more like a Red Bull team now than they ever were, and a lot of that was due to what's his name coming on board, Daniel Ricardo. So I've heard rumors that Yuki not Yuki, is looking to leave, thank god. So I'm wondering the two your commitments with Perez. But at the same time, is it, Hey, if we can always move down to the team. Oh, that was suck. It would suck. And I did read an article that said Perez being the teammate to Verstapping is vital to for Stapping success. Could be Apparently they do a lot to Perez's car that they test, and that's the reason you see the disparencies sometimes between qualifying and raising. I mean there used to be back. I mean they used to be. I mean they used to be one of two. Those were the top two guys. Perez was always the first. Happened, wasn't an F one Perez would be winning, Yeah, but he's now down there in that six or seven spot all the time and cannot qualify. Yeah at all. Well, hey, if this to your extension, he might relax a little bit and it'll be interesting I think F one's going to be interesting the next four to five weeks to see if yeah, Ferrari and McLaren, well they have really put it on Red Bull. I think this track was going to tell a lot and how far Mercedes has dropped. It is a Canadian Grand Prix. Grand Prix, which is a lot of long straightaways, but it's also a lot of turns, so I no, I mean, it's it's long, it's long straightaways, but then it's these short turns that where you can't just fly through it. So I'm curious because Red Bull seems to do really well with power on long straightaways, so they're back to getting that, but then there's a lot of breaking in these turns. So I'm just curious to see if indeed McLaren is that good or if they've just been on a run with some good tracks for them or I mean, because the last two tracks it hasn't been power yeah right, I mean not at all, right, it hasn't, you know, So this is a this is a track that's got some power to it, so it'll be interesting to see. Yeah, and that's coming up this weekend. Uh NBA Final start tomorrow. Yep. It seems like it's been month. But I mean you understand they did sweep Celtics swept right, you know the pace one was in four and the other was in five, and so yeah, I mean, obviously you can't move it up. So well, curious to see how that happened. You know. I heard an interesting question, is this is the pressure on Kyrie Irving at all? Is there any pressure on him? I don't. I don't think that he's got one. So it's Luca Well. I mean, I really think it'll be interesting to see the dynamic of Kyrie in Boston because it didn't go well with him in Boston. So I'm kind of interested to see that. But honestly, I don't even know who to root for. I'm not never been a Celtics fan, but I kind of want them to get over the hump and win one because I like Brad there Genia. It sucks for me because I love all of them, be honest with you. I love Jason Tatum. Brown is phenomenal to watch. Ye. I love that Horford guy because he's just a workaholict true. Drue Holliday, Drew Holliday. Yeah, and then you flip on the other side. I know you don't like him, but I loved watching Dontic Luca and I like Kyrie. Yeah, Kyrie is the most talent. His stand that he took with the shot, Yes, I mean they should write about that during the finals. You know how they do all those pieces so that you can do yes, well, is anybody going to do a piece to make him look like a hero that he stored up against the entire country? Exactly? But they should, absolutely, they won't. He stood on principle. Hey, if they said anything about how I know it's not on your list, but your boy, that Larry kind of the guy that's the offensive lineman, Larry Allen. Have they said what caused the death? I haven't heard fifty two fifty two? Poor guy heart, I would guess well I would think so too, But yeah, nobody asked that question. If you find anything on Larry Allen, the Dallas cowboy offensive lineman, see what see what his ailment was before he died? See if it's as of yesterday, they had not, But no one ever asked the question did he get the shot? All right? Only ones just kidding, just kidding, Hey, you left something out of sports? No, I haven't gotten there yet. I was kidding because she was reading and I was like, Okay, I'm trying to do what I'm told. Here pumped the brakes. I know where we're at. It doesn't look like they have anything. Dang, that's crazy. Yeah, what happened to him? Uh? What the hell's going on with the w NBA. It's ridiculous. I can't put Honestly, I cannot put my hand around what the heck's going on? Yes you can, Okay, let's if it's racist, it is, which it is, But do you not understand that it's hurting your brand? Stupid? That is the point of racism. You're doing something in spite because of your jealousy of the person that's out there, and because she doesn't look like you. You're going to go knock the hell out of her. What if she falls and breaks her arm and is out for eight weeks? What have you done to your sport? They don't get it. I don't think they get it. No, they don't, dude. We've never ramification, So anybody hasn't been in the world this week. The controversy is Caitlin Clark is getting knocked the hell out of by the WNBA players, yes, mainly the black ones. Yes. And when they showed the bench when the person gets ejected or has to go to because there's a flagrant foul called after Caitlyn is laying on the ground, do you see what the bench players are doing when that person comes over clapping, They're like hugging her, like man, oh yeah, you got her right. First off, who on Indiana is going to protect her? They need to. They need to hire one of those Detroit Piston thugs to go in there, Bill Lambier and I bring him over piss out of somebody that would knock her down. Yeah, that's awful. Now I don't because you have supposedly the Boston I can't remember her first name, but she's a really good player. Yes, she's from South Carolina. All the stuff she doesn't know, she knows Aliah Boston. Miller throws that out there like it this man, that's impressive. She was a number one pick overall and she's you could see her kind of helping Caitlin through some of this stuff. Well where are you? I mean, come on one, Okay, I'm gonna give you a hypothetical. Not great on hypotheticals, but I love him. As examples, if Tiger Woods does a sport where he's the only black person doing the sport and there's a white group of people that have been playing that sport and that they started picking on Tiger and knocking him down on his way to putt, Yeah, would they not do a movie about Tiger and his fights? First of all, they wouldn't do it. You know why because they all understand, hey, we're making more money. Now I know that, Brian, But the high pathetical, let's think outside the box a little bit. If it was a white group doing that to Tiger Woods, would that story not be all over everything? Everything is? People are so afraid to say what they see in front of them. If it's a black person doing something wrong that you cannot call it racism. It's racism, No, it is. It is what they're doing. And it's stupid, as we mentioned, because you're cutting off. You aren't flying on charter flights now, you're not on commercial airlines. You have packed arenas, and you have the highest ratings that you've had in the WNBA period, and yet you're gonna go do that to the person that brought the Golden goose. It is absurd. Yeah, and nobody's advocating for you not to play tough or it was, but the cheap shots listen to ridiculous. I've never been a big fan at I mean, Caitlin Clark, I like because she can shoot from so far, but her antics afterwards and yelling at teammates, I've never really liked that. And I've always thought somebody's gonna knock her, knock her down. It should be a teammate, her ass down. But once that's not what's going on here. It is jealousy, it is racism. Yes, and they do not like her getting the publicity at all, exactly. Now. You know what I hope though, for I hope that their story can really be written, that she makes it through that and eventually wins all of them over. Yeah, I hope that she fights through it because she could easily just quit and go to the what is it called the Big Three and take the five million from I never thought about that, take the five million from him, and you ain't got to put up with this crap. Yeah, that would be fantastic. Then all the audience goes to the Big Three and then watch the w NBA screen. How come we now have our flights anymore. Yeah, she seems like she's going to stick it out out of spite. Oh yeah, she got that character Kenna Larry Bird. Yep, you know what I mean. Yeah. Anyway, I'm glad we touched on that subject. All right, what do you get anything else? Now? It's just saying you left out the l s U un C game. Oh my god, why do you always know? Dude? I know it is kind of a push on you. I know it is, But dude, what a game that was. It was amazing. Oh my god. And I would have been just as happy if LSU had won. It was such a game. I'm literally sitting here watching this with my nephew and I said, I don't understand this coach. I love him to death. Obviously, he just won a national championship. He knows what he's doing, but he starts the game like I said this to you. In the championship game against Tennessee, his best pitcher was Eckenhausen. He pitched two scoreless innings where he struck out the side both innings. He took him out of the game and he said, we have bigger stuff ahead of us. They interviewed him in the dugout and he said, it was our plan going in. We have bigger stuff to look forward to. We have to be ready, you know, we have to set our regions. Yeah, he was not, which I don't like. But hey, they almost won the game against Tennessee, so he's not an idiot. But they go into this Eckenhausen is available, and I'm like, I don't understand, why aren't you starting this guy? What was it? Eight pitches in? He just yanked that guy against you and c they were on their third pitcher fifteen pitches into the game. Huh And yeah, Lsu was Yes, Okay, I give him credit because he yanked. I mean, he didn't play around. Yeah, but it's like, man, I really felt if Eckenhausen was the pitcher, they win that game. Because Eckenhausen did come in later on and he preserved the lead, he took him out and brought in the guy that gave. What I like about and it was interesting is how many people I know watched that game. I guess there was nothing going on that night is probably why I was watching it. Yeah, quite honestly, but I love a game when both teams are good, yes, and they're both beating each other at real baseball, you know what I mean. It wasn't like that bunt that went down the line two strikes I thought, I mean in the replay out, So what is that third basement doing. He's letting it go out into the outfield. I didn't know it went foul. It was that close down the line, and it was smart that he didn't play it. Oh man, it was correct. But like Logan said, that's a choice. You're making a split second. Yeah, but once you make the choice, you have to live with it. Yeah, and that is a damning choice. If it goes the other way, it's dangerous. Yeah. And the announcers picked up on it. Clean your space. Have you ever heard of this? He actually said it that between innings and between pitches, you'll see Tommy picking gravel and throwing it out and cleaning. They call it cleaning your space. I've never heard of this. In case something like that happens, that it doesn't push it back into play. By the way, can we can we start the petition to have no more carpet infields? Oh, it's so stupid. I hate when I switched to a game and it's a rug that they're running around on. And the other day I was watching Yukon play and the dude slips in falls. It's a slick carpet that he's trying to run on. I'm not a big fan of the carpet every I don't know why we try to reinvent our game. I mean with different innaches. Yeah, I guess money, just cost. If you're going to have a turf field, have a turf field. If you're going to have grass, natural grass, yeah, and do it the right way. But they're putting it on the dirt. There's no dirt on these fields some of them. Yeah, it was just colored carpet, but yeah, it was. It was a phenomenal game. College World Series doesn't matter who's playing, is great. Man. I could not write down, like listen to these teams that Trent Warner, if he had to write them down, it is UVA, NC State, Tennessee, Clemson, and our friends go to went to West Virginia. All of them are in those super regionals. Yeah, that is freaking awesome. Yeah, and you got you got you and c There's some teams out west that I think is going to be interesting. Too. Oh. We looked up man to tell everybody what's the furthest North team sixty three? I think it was Ohio State. Other than that, has everybody been in the South or California? So did you knd Lose? I didn't know Yukon won. Oh they're in this regional superregional holy Cow, which I wanted to tell you. Look up their roster. Did you get a chance to look No, you did ask me to do it.

It's time for news all right, Life, Liberty, Happiness. Had a busy week this week Monday, Uh yours truly in Trent Join the media world. We had media passes and everything. Dude. That was so slick that you came upside and it was like literally we walked through the line flashing badges. I mean we look legit, yes, like you walk this way, sir, and I looking around like, damn, we're part of the media, Emma. So Rand Paul hoping, I stand here. Okay, Rand Paul, who's a senator, Emma, there's fifty of them, Yes, okay, he's one of the famous ones on our side. He's coming to speak with Bob Good who was just in our studio the week before. So we wanted to go see Rand Paul and Bob Well. I did the rs VP thing and the email kicked back immediately and said it's completely full. And I was like, Brian, hey man, I'm sorry, it looks like it's gonna be completely full, and he said, hey, I'm in. I was like, how did I just get in, he said. I said, I was part of the media, so I tried to and I got in it as well. I was like, only count you guys are cheating the system. We are Life Liberty Happiness is going to be on the road now. Life Liberty Happening was was onseen today for the D Day a memorial luncheon that was in Lynchburg. Trent and I were at this event. This was the Bob good rally that was in Lynchberg featuring Rand Paul Roving reporter. Trent was there first on the front row. We were on the front row and we got a bunch of good information. So I was thinking, so I got two clips here, all right? All right, So the first one's a little bit inaudible in the very beginning, but just stick with it a little bit. It was me trying to figure out how do I record? And then I remember, then I remember, why am I trying to voice record? We do audio clips all the time, so I was like, why don't I just do audio snippets? Oh yeah, And so the beginning of it's a little messed up because I'm still trying to figure out how to be a reporter. Okay, but the first clip. These two clips are Ran Paul and both of these things were sitting in the first three minutes. Aman, did he have the crowd in his hands? Oh? Yes, it was a pack. I mean how many would you say? We're there three? Yeah? Yeah, it was a packed little church. And hey, how about a church doing this? Yes, I mean stop being afraid. Yes, lead by example, Yeah, I do something. Okay, so let's listen to him. Cut one. Why we're probably away fly getting the week, come back towards the end of the week, and uh, you're always glad to get home. And uh so you know, some of those people are frustrated. They want us to do more though, It's like, why aren't you doing this? Wh aren't you doing that? You say this, but why don't you do something? So I get home and I figure, at least my life I'll understand that, right. So I get home at the end of the week, and I expect her to be at the front door with either slippers or an army. Yeah, you know what she says to me when I come in. How come Anthony Fauci's not in jail, So if you can make that up, why isn't Anthony Fauci in jail. It's a great point, you know what. And then he was on I mean, Anthony Fauci is at the in front of Congress again today? Yes, and then who's the guy that we hate the Attorney general? On those clips? Okay, how many times are we going to see him in front of Congress? Still don't do a damn though thing. Okay, but it just infuriates us and whatever. But here's what I think was the most telling of all the speeches that were given that day. This little part right here, so good ran two. The problem is I think there's two tiers of justice. That there was a time in our country. There was not a good time when people were not treated fairly in this country based on the color of their skin, When people didn't have equal protection, people went to court and because of the color of the skin, I don't think they were treated fairly. It's not as much now, though, the color of your skin, as it is the shade of your ideology. I worried if you pray to God, if you teach your kids at home, if you're pro life, somebody protests and turn of plan Parenter to get twenty years. Somebody destroys the pregnancy center up here. What do they get. It's not to say justice is going around. It's going to lead to further and further unhappiest. You remember this lady, what's your name? Hillary? And that was it, But that I do think that's honestly, him saying that made me think the stuff that I think is important. That might be the biggest thing. The way he encapsulated, yes, that we're not getting fair justice. If you're Trump, you get thirty four trumped up charges and that, dude, I just saw it on the headlines when I was in Bedford here. I walked in the convenience store and it says Trump's guilty. You know, that's the Y's the thing that's the headlines. It's I don't know how we fix it, but I do know that. I think Bob Good was the one that said in his speech, our rights have been trampled on, or have been approached before by the communist party that you used to be communists, by those factions that have tried to take over this country, and we yes, this is our time to fight back. Correct And at some point you don't listen to him anymore. No, that's right. I thought about this the other day when I was looking at this stuff, and this is the stuff that bothers me. I'm gonna start pushing back because I'm tired of hearing people say this that Trump's crooked or Trump's corrupt. Listen, I promise you that if there was something on Trump, they would have found it a large time ago. Yes, you're telling me you have convicted him of thirty four charges that you can't tell me what long he broke. Exactly, if you're going to convict a president or you, if you're going to convict you, you should at least have a crime that you have committed, and kid you not. I mean, if whatever they're going to say that he did, which is so stupid when you think about it, And that's part of what it is. They're trying to find something they can embarrass him about, no doubt about it. But if you could certainly put his picture up there, and you can't put John Edwards's picture up there or Bill Clinton's picture up there and know that they didn't get anything. You can't put Hillary Clinton in thirty three thousand emails. You can't put Hunter Biden. Nope, and the Hunter Biden's a trial now and there's zero change. There's no chance he's got anything. I've already heard a guy given an argument as to why they won't. Okay, so we are starting to sound like African Americans from thirty years ago that couldn't get fair in prison. And that's what I'm saying. Ran Paul is right. We are now saying that we have to be loud and vocal about this. Yeah, I mean the court systems. And that's what George Soros did and their think tanks. They sat around to figure out what was weak about our capitalists. Great country, yes, and they started planting judges and prosecutors. All right. So this is what's interesting to me because my brother called me after the show last week and he said, he's still talking to you. Yeah, he said he understand why a few people could be could change everything that was going on in the United States. And I said, Kevin, they started this in the seventies, dude. Absolutely, It's not a few. It's been in our rooms. They've just been constantly doing it. It's not a few just popped up and did it. And by the way, it started even before that with the unions and the Communist Party. Correct, do you remember the McCarthy hearings, and if you were labeled a communists, I mean you went to jail, right, We fought back against the Communist Party. They just did it without branding themselves. They just kind of went in and migrated themselves to the universities. And I've always said, judicials, how in the world in our society could there be a candidate on the Democrat side that was leading? And yet he calls himself a socialist? Why aren't you running a socialist party? I just you're right. It's the branding, it's the every thing that they talk about. It's got it gets on my nerves and I'm just I'm tired of telling my friends, Oh, I'm gonna vote for Trump because it's the batt on the other side. But that man, what what about that man that you don't like? Yeah, he's crooked. Name one thing that he did that's crooked. He raised phenomenal kids, He doesn't drink alcohol, he doesn't do drugs. What is your problem with him? He literally won awards from the NAACP for all his philanthropy, and dude, I love I do a Bible study class on Monday or Sunday night. I'm telling you. It has been the funnest thing. We chose characters in the Bible, that's our thing, and we study them, and that's our study. I did David Okay, he was God one of God's favorites, if not the favorite king of all time. Right, go look at his past. It ain't good. Yeah. And you're sitting here telling me that I should judge this guy. I mean, shut up right, I'm just telling you he will lead us. Trumpet started a movement that is powerful taking off. Yes, it's terrific, all right. Uh, special counsels. Oh gosh, dude, I saw this. And again, I know it's the talking heads, but at least educates me on something I didn't know. I just wish if it's if it's true, which it is true, then how do you get to prosecute a case when you don't have prosecutor prosecutorial powers? So Jack Smith, yeah, this is a clip of mass I think is Oh yeah, Kentucky, Kentucky. Yes, he's interviewing or questioning Meyrik Carlin cut three was Jack Smith nominated by President Bidener, confirmed by the US Senate. But you're asking me about a case again. Motions filed a simple question. No, I'm not Jack Smith nominated by President Biden. Oh he was not. Was he confirmed by the Senate? Oh he was not. When was the special Council statute passed? There is no special Council statute. There was in the Council's statute that was expired. So it expired. So what gives you the authority to appoint a special council to create You've created an office in the in the US government that does not exist and without authorization from Congress? How's it funded? That's how do they do it? They just do it? Yeah, But I'm asking the question that nobody will ask or answer me. If you're he's already gotten in trouble from the judge because of manipulating evidence, why is he even in front of you? Where is the judge going? You don't have authority to be here, That's the part I don't get. If Congress didn't give him the authority, why are you here? Should be the only thing. Now you had mentioned the judges. The one thing that people don't talk about is Trump appointed more judges than any other president, to over two hundred conservative justices. When will when do we get to see that filtering exactly don't, because our science stays honest. We we would throw it out of the court, like we would say, hey, that can't be started. We carry about. We care so much about the defense. Here's a goods. What's the trial that ends up going first? It's the one in New York with a liberal guy who said I'm coming after you, with a liberal attorney general who says I'm coming after you, and a judge. So far, that's what you've had. Meanwhile, Hunter Biden, you know where his trial is, his home state Delaware. With it's a joke. Yeah, and of course they get the verdict of Trump when before the debate. They get the verdict of Trump before Hunter's trial. Yeah, they get all of that. And you got that a hole this week trying to say that he's going to secure the border when two weeks before the debate. Come on, Yes, I mean all of this is such a joke, and hopefully people are seeing this. Here's the part I don't think they figured on, Like the poles are bad enough already for Biden, and Trump's got the momentum, there's no doubt about it. Now the dude gets to hit the road. You've kept him silent per se. Really in court, Dude, he's got the next three months, or at least two months, I will say, get used to that idea that he's going to be in jail. Oh yeah, I pretty much know that. Middle of July whenever the sentencing is. Yeah, well, I mean he's not gonna be able to campaign if he's in jail. I don't think that's enough at that point. If he goes to jail, I think they have written it all at that point. Yeah. I'm just saying, Yeah, it's unbelievable the country we live in. Yeah, I agree. Yep. University of Lynchburg. I guess it's called the University of Lynchburg, right, Yes, they laid off forty employees, got rid of I don't know how many programs, A bachelors degree programs. Yes, Ari the liberals crying, Oh we're losing the arts. Listen, it's I don't know if you saw it, but I dude, I've been reading a thread on Facebook that just makes me just cringe. I can't. I have a hard time doing stupidity. I actually asked this question the other day to a friend of mine, was do people not realize that you can get fired and laid off. I mean, is this something they think doesn't happen, Like the complaints, You won't believe the way they let us know, what's the proper way to let you know? Please tell me, I'll do it. Your key don't work. That's the way some people do it, right. Yeah, And then somebody took a picture of their severance package and put it on Facebook and said this is what we got. Be happy you got a severance package. Yeah. Most people who get laid off don't get squat. If you're working in a factory, you ain't getting nothing. I'll give kudos to whoever's at Lynchburg University looking at the bottom line exactly. Somebody's coming up with numbers that we can't keep doing what we're doing. Thank god, somebody's putting like that together. It's numbers the way it should be. For instance, when I grew up Radford University in Longwood, those were basically the two places you went for education if you were going to be a teacher. Well, it sucks that all of these other schools were offering these things, right, So now I think these universities are going back to you know what, that's not what we do I saw that Virginia Tech could cut a lot of those programs, and it's smart. It's smart business. If you're Lynchburgh College, it's smart business. And if you're there and you're a professor that got laid off, it sucks. I told you last night, you have brad Hey, Washington Post just had a meeting with all their staff. Yes, there's the be a huge shakeup. Yep. Hey, everybody, we have half the subscribers we once had four years ago. And four years ago, which I mean this Internet going on, it couldn't have been a lot of subscribers in the first place, but you lost half. There's gonna be a huge shakeup. Yep. Somebody's finally looking at numbers. I've been waiting for this. When is somebody gonna start realizing you don't have anybody? Why should I advertise for a rag that's not saying what I wanted to hear. I never understood, and I told you this. When I get in my truck or whatever I'm driving, if I could push play, and maybe it's out there and I just don't know about it, but I would subscribe to a newspaper if I could just hit play and read it. To me while I'm driving to work or whatever. That's a good point. Why don't they change their whole outlook like Blockbuster refused to do and Netflix killed it right, same thing. You knew it was going this way. Change your whole approach. Yeah, or keep doing what you're doing and go broke. Yeah, it looks like it's going to happen. Yeah. Uh, we would like to welcome We need to have him on the show. We had the former school superintendent Jeffer Kenny Schools welcomes in a new superintendent, mister William Dupree. No, it's peer Pree, it's pair. I did actually stretch. I hit the button to like, let the computer tell me what it was and nice. But we'd like to welcome him into the fold. So part of the roving reporter thing. When we talked about this yesterday, we talked about Beffrey County changing and we had mentioned how people are upset already. The guy hasn't been to work for a day for a week yet, yes, and people are already complaining. And you and I mentioned if we're pissing those people off that we see that are complaining, we're doing something right. Probably moving in the right direction. Okay, So Marcus Hill called me today. I sent him a couple of questions if you want, and I told me we were doing the podcast today. So he called me and we had a conversation today and he told me some things and then I told him about some stuff that I had done that was going on. Dude, You're going to love this guy. I mean, I can't wait till he takes over. So he is going to run Bedford County like a business, which you just mentioned about Lunchborough College and the things that sold them on this guy was I'm a data guy. What works where? And just because something works at Jefferson Forest doesn't mean it's going to work at Liberty or Stanton River. Absolutely, the kids at Liberty aren't the same kids that go to JF aren't the same kids to go to Stanton River. And Marcus gave me a great story and which is really course, and I said, hey, Marcus, I don't want to step on your toes. But when I was at graduation, absolutely was so impressed by the kids that spoke. It was fantastic. And my daughter sat next to me and she's a junior. The rising seniors went through not one time did they announced what school they were going to? And that bothers me because I want the kids that are in the stands saying oh, or even if you said the Marine Corps, or maybe if they were going into something after they said their name. And Riley, my daughter, tried to be nice and goes, well, that probably takes too long. She told me every since she probably knew two thirds of the kids of what college they were going to, because she knew all the seniors. She's a junior. So I told Marcus. I also asked her when they announced all the staff members, she didn't know a single one of you. She didn't know the board members, she didn't know. And he says, well, just to clear some of that up, we do meet with the senior class, and we do try to do programs with seniors, so she wouldn't know them yet. However, this guy recognizes that and he says staff should not be hiding in their offices and maybe we don't even need them. So he one of the things he's going data, what are you doing? How are you helping students? Yes, I cannot wait for this to take over. Yes, we have a guy who cares about students. Yeah, Hey, we should just make it a new student first, America first students first. Marcus used the term and he says, I got a lot of heat for it. But public servant or servant to the students. Yeah, and people go, what is that supposed to be? You know, he called it a servant leader? I think something like that. Yeah, but it is you're leading and you're trying to serve the people you were leading, right, Just I can't wait. And you know, this guy's going to get raked through the colls as soon as he starts letting because he doesn't have a pH d. Yes, come on, man, That's the comments that I read. Probably most of the comments I read was he didn't have a PhD. Oh that is yeah, oh in potation? And how this guy only ran a school with nine hundred and seventy students. How's he going to do that here with nine thousand. Yeah, like he's not out there doing it, dummy. You have teachers, you have some custodians, you have everything. Marcus said, he's a great communicator. He cares about the kids here about I can't wait to stand. I'm going to have a meeting with mister Dupair and I'm going to tell him whatever you can do to triple the budget on athletics, and I will give you the numbers on how important that is. And then I can't wait to stand from the school board and say the same thing. I'm going to figure out a way to make athletics number one here in Bedford County. It's one of my I'm just doing it. I see it changed too many lives, man, compared to Salem Christiansburg, looks like those two programs do a lot exactly. I just I've seen it change lives, and I don't think a administrator knows that it really don't or don't put importance to it, right, you know what I'm saying. I mean, I think it's a it's a negative connotation attached to a student athlete that, oh, all you care about is that. That's not what I'm saying. I'm telling you it gives them a massive advantage and it teaches them everything that they're gonna need in school, whether it's drama, theater, any of those things. I'm for all of it to get more funding. You know what am I for throwing computer books at them and all this other stuff that we've spent billions on and it has not proven to be successful period. Yeah, well I'm looking forward to the new guy. Yep, me too, So moving on. Sorry, I don't want to move on yet. Okay, we gotta pay bills first. I moved my agenda around a little bit, so it confused me. What part are we on that we're on here? This new mushroom's working out great anyway. The first hour was brought to you by State Farm.

David eighty million, Life, Liberty, Happiness eighty million, Miami, Come on man, it's Brian schly Wait Shouse truth over facts, speaking of truth over facts. Here as you're wonderful. Uh, slow Joe President. Remember when last week when he aften slow Joe. Yeah he is. He's got all his faculties there. Here's a clip of him now in him years ago. All right? Yeah, cut for like I said in nineteen sixty nine, and I got involved deeply in the civil rights movement. Those are you in Pennsylvanias know that Delaware used to be a slave state in the Southern States attitude during the sixties. I was, in fact, very concerned about the civil rights movement. I was not an activist. I worked at an all black swimming pool and the east side of Wilmington, Delaware. I was involved. I was involved in what they were thinking, what they were feeling. I was involved, but I was not out marching. I was not down in Selma, I was not anywhere else. Just remember he still says he did marks and that it depends on the day. This is your fearless leader. Nobody's writing books about this guy. I tried to watch ABC News last night. It is very difficult, like all that they do so and so much of what they do is trying to make up for what he's said or done. So two days ago he's in trouble because he said he agreed with someone is netting Yahoo doing what he's doing in Rafi or whatever the name of place is because of his own politics. He's trying to extend it for his own and Biden agreed with him. So then yesterday they purposely bring him back out to give him the legitimate question to hear again, and he goes, no, he's not doing that. He's he's got a lot of things going on, okay, So then ABC has to play the corrected answer instead of Dude, you just literally said the two opposites a day apart from one another. He's a liar. Just be on whoever is in front of him. That's what he's trying to answer us, what he thinks he can say to please the person that's in front of him in chief Lyaron Chief, that is exactly right. I have all right. That was our number one stick around. For our number two, we'll take you out with the little Brian Adams Summer of sixty nine. I come the first real sixty boy. After five and time we played it on my fingers play was the summer of sixteen nine. Some guys from school. We had a bed every time real hot Jimmy Quinton Judy got married. Should know we never get fub met. Only back now seeing the laugh for you ever and it not every choice. Yeah, I was falling up mother and wasn't sit pro playing him when you gotta time. You to lay this down at the time. And that's when I'm at too. You were standing in on your mama's sports. You told me to wake some them. Oh my, oh my dam I knew that it was down. Man, go for the best days of my backing. So my sixty night when okay, time on your ass was on me to a moment, I guess that last and now the time salt chanting you get, everything's come and gone. Chan say I'll pay that all next time we got back to O the d man say, bather, but you tell me last school, my n it was the house it was of is that det know? For all you paying subscribers, Life, Liberty, Happiness presents our number two. Hey, we're getting over time for this right all right? I went to our number two and they are famous. Top ten. Hell, now your top ten for the week she's more like a fine All right. Top ten weird things we were required to do in school back in the day. Okay, and Emma, we're gonna rely on you to see if these things are still required. Okay. My number ten is learning the periodical table. M hm. I did do that in chemistry class. If you take chemistry, you gotta do it. Yeah, what's in? It's useless? Nitrogen? Thank you, Emma. I took that in the tenth grade. That that was a while ago. What's f e phineas a loom and it lead? Oh two? Again, I'm not saying I learned it's thirty five? You're potassium? What I think it's uranium? No, how do you know there's no uranium would be in the top eight. That was one of the just say, okay, all right, periodical table. It just was useless to me. So yeah, number nine another useless, the Presidential Physical Fitness Test. You didn't think the shutter run was important? Set up and push ups and do y'all still have the Presidential Physical Fitness We didn't call it that. What did they call it the fitness test? I don't know. I wonder why they didn't. Wonder why they took. Of course, they can't make it look like Trump. Oh yeah, well I think I only did that in middle school, though I don't think I did that. I don't think. I don't know if we did it. And I remember you got a little stamp on your certificate if you passed. Yes, you guys are old. We didn't do that. You had pull ups. Shuttle run? No, what was the shuttle run? You put her in an a raser eight feet from another racer and you go left right and you have to pick it up and put it down, pick it up down, that kind of thing. That was a thing. No, No, it was. There was parts of it because it was a competition. You could look on a list and see who got the most pull up. It was that. Yeah, so but useless. No, I didn't like it. Number eight. Yeah, the fluoride rents. I don't know. I'm not exactly sure of what you're meaning. I thought I knew what you're talking about, But we haven't gotten to your list because we don't even start. Yeah, all right, so literally, I remember in elementary school a nurse or lady would walk into our classroom with a tray of cups that were about yay, big little Dixie cups and inside them was a floride rent and so it would be this much liquid in it. And then they would hand each child a cup and the teacher would go, okay, go and then you would have to put it in your mouth and rents for thirty seconds and then spin it back in the cup. First of all, could you imagine COVID what that would all these kids spitting in a cup must spend almost have some shitty water. But I just it was stupid. Yeah, get who comes up with this stuff? It was for your teeth? Yeah, might not have fluoride in your water, honestly, that's one of the things that I mean, that's what they put in your water. Well, we hit the Flooride writs, how about the nuclear test? Where are you coming up with these names? What do you mean? Like nobody ever calls it the nuclear test? Well why would why else would you hide under your desk Back in their day? It was a nuclear threat? Okay, you remember, so Emma has no idea what you're talking about. Okay, we had to do that for tornadoes. So tornadoes and hurricanes is what we did them. For earthquakes, we didn't you think we would have done it for nuclear test because I lived on a military base. Y'all didn't do it in the eighties. We did it for hurricanes. Don't you remember the Cold War in the whole? Yeah, I know what you're talking about. I remember seeing that stuff. They made us hide under your desk. Yeah, we just did that. Earthquakes and hurricanes. Where are you getting the name? I don't know that. Lady said, hey, we're going to do a nuclear test. The lady bala? I think what's my name? Number six? The scoliosis test. Now, my oldest daughter was diagnosed while she was at school because of that. So they must do it at some time. What test was that? What did you have to do? All right? So they it was again it was in elementary school. They would take us into a closet. They didn't take us today. What story are you about to talk about? We were not in a damn clause. They did it in the classroom closet. Do you remember back in the day when you mail teacher, what the hell Brian? It didn't he rubbed your back. The spinal cord doesn't run down there. That's wrong here. We need a too far jar, Oh my god, a too far dri it was a crooked back. It's a crooked back test to see if you're spine straight, and if it's crooked, you wear a brace. We didn't do that, all right, I'm not joking. They took us into a closet one by one and they would take a stick. They would go straight down your back. Did this only happen to you? No, I'm telling you. Called Kevin. Kevin calls in my number, my number five is the stupid recorder. They still do it? Why? But what is it like? Who? Who? Who was able to get? What? Recorder? Manufacturer? Get that in every school? Every student? Yeah? I loved it. Oh my god. We put little colored strings around the end of your records. Of course you would. What is wrong with you? Believe it or not? I got I got a recorder as a Christmas gift just this year. Riley got me one. I love it. See. I used to wake up kids sometimes, like last day of school. I was coming through and I go, have you learned any songs? I could make a King Kobra dance? Oh my god, there's something wrong with you. Yeah? Oh god, But again, what is it mandatory in school? I don't get that one. I mean why not the harmonica too expensive? Probably, I beut you. The reporter is the cheapest thing you can get. Yeah, I mean I got it for Christmas. Thanks riding all right? Number four? Yeah, making of the volcano. I never got to do that. I didn't either. I think our class like they had a special kid do it, or I mean like a smart kid, not a special kid. That was brad to clean up the mess. Eleven Oh yeah, yeah, the volcano that just yeah, I never again, we don't have volcanoes here. Why am I making one? You went to a special school, bri went to elementary school like everybody else did. Number three, Oh my god, Shakespeare? Why am I eating Shakespeare? Why? I don't get that either? What grade did you do that in? Probably seventh to eighth? What I did a little bit later, yeah, later of high school. I think I couldn't stand it. I think it was it was I couldn't get to a sentence. I couldn't understand. It's like differential equations. My wife said it's good for learning the Bible, Like it's a stupid that's not teaching me anything in the Bible. I don't think I know it's now she said them now they I don't, but I don't get there's nothing from Shakespeare that's teaching me anything to get it out. Number two, she probably has no clue what this I do because it was stupid. They may have just watched a little video on it. It's the Doy decibel system singing in a song. My mom actually said when I went over this list with her today, Brian, you have to learn decibels, and I just went, oh, my gosh, I don't understand why a guy named it it's a liarary library thing. Well, of course, but she didn't know that it neither did not. I'm like, oh, it's so when you add a book you just move the decimal over. That's stupid. It is stupid. I don't know how we why we had to learn it. And number one, my number one, I don't remember that being what the Dewey decimal system was. That you add a book and you move the decimal over. Yeah, because you're always adding books. Yeah, so if you you didn't want to add more, I think like the subject of the book was whether it was an eight hundred series or a six hundred series that was fiction non fiction, all that stuff. According to the yeah card do you remember the book? Do you remember the drawers that had all the cards in them? Yeah, then you could find it. That's how you found it on the shelf. He's a smart dude. But anyway, yeah, yeah, I'm pretty sure when you added a book that was in that you would add the number and move the decimal over. Why wouldn't you just go to another hundreds or a tenth? Like I think that to avoid all of that, you just do point zero one, point zero two. Oh it was like point zero zero one exactly. Well not because then you'd have sixteen hundred zeros and then one. I just think we need day Baxter to send me in. I didn't say we paid attention in school, okay, not number one Latin. I never had to do it. I did it my daughter, my oldest you know, Audrey, who loved it. No, it's so hard. But here's my question, what would you ever use it in? And why are our judicial systems still using it? So the theory is, you know English language a lot better if you know the Latin term. So that's what they try to tell you. But I could. I never did it. I never had to do it. If you go to medical school, you're supposed to take lot. All right, quickly, let's go over your list which we can get to have out. You start with the first one. Do you remember this? Me, you've got problem? Do you remember this? No, the purple pill. Never took a purple pill of my wife. You didn't have to chew that thing when you were like in third grade that they would look see if you had cavities. What again, we did florade. You chewed a pill, so you chew this die pill and then you smiled, and they would look to see if you had crevices of potential cavities. I don't want to know. I didn't. I completely forgot about that in my life until I read floride rents and I didn't know what you were talking about floride rents. But we had the purple pill. A pill, it's a dyed pill. We did it for the first probably three or four years of my elementary school years. And we did the hurricanes under the desk. How about do they still do autopsies or uh? What do they call those things where you cut the pig? Yes? And I love uh what do they call that? Oh, dissect dissect? I love that because my daughter goes to Timberlake, right, yeah, they actually Regan'll go, hey, can you shoot something this weekend? So I could take it in nice? Get a groundhog like they do. They bring stuff like that in. You got the groundhog in your building. Take a live one. Hey, see your shadow like you see a Napoleon dynamite or something. Just shoot in front of him. But do you remember the house long the small intestines was on the pig. That thing was stretch. I couldn't do it like I can gut them deer. I can do all that stuff, but I could I could never on first. I couldn't want to hang them. I could never deal with the formaldehyde. It made me just every time I walked in thinking of it. Now is about ready to make me go. You have to do an egg break, no where you dropped off the roof. If your egg carton can still work? My daughter did it this year? Did you have to do that? Miller phil Day? Do you remember how cool field Day was in elementary school? Yes? Okay, you got a red ribbon, a blue ribbon, I guess blue was if you won red second and a yellow man deal. Dude, I could not wait. I mean I was going to beat everybody at every event, and you always had a hamstring problem. That was great. I did. I racked up on field Day. Did you do phild day participation? Ribbons, y'all had phield Day? Yeah, we had field Day. That was good. How about Okay, did you play red Rover red Rover Red rovers? Right over? But did you also play smear the Queer? We did? Yeah, we did. I bet they don't do that now. They did. I don't think they called it that, but I mean we did, but yeah they did. I wonder what they're call it now. So essentially, you just throw the football in the air and the kid that catches it just takes off running and everybody tries to smearing he's the queer. Yes, so you try to knock the queer down, and then when he gets tackled, then he has to throw the ball up in the air and one of the game catches it and they just man, we play played that. God, we played that for hours. It was brutal. What about I thought another one life checks? Oh yeah, in the first grade. Yeah, I take that little stick and they look for lights in your head. Yeah, you guys are special. I didn't go in a closet, no light. How do we find lice down there? Jeez, I don't have any hair yet. All right, on half had it. I just got three things to say. God, bless our truths, God bless America. Stuck God. I could listen to that five times in a row. All right, So they have added today for the dumb asses. I got the same dumb ass that you had earlier, but I got two of his on here. So back through the algorithm, I'm getting the Biden stuff. And you know how you played the one Biden thing where he mumbles his way through stuff. All right, this is one of my favorites of all time in his four years. This is why he was president. I think this is after COVID, but it came back through my algorithm, and I just remember how he thinks he is smarter than everyone else. And then his last question. Just it's a little bit long, but it's worth listening to. Cut twenty. One of the things that I find is I look at it and I take it very seriously. The confidence level of the American people in the economy, and they're so down, and they're looking there's reason to be down. But I started thinking about it and Brian and you and I talked about it just a little bit. You know. The first year we were able to with the I think Brian's going all night plan, we were able to send them a check for eight grand. I mean a check. Who he says he sent he sent all of us that. By the way, there's more than that, more than a But when you're making if you're making one hundred and twenty grand, yeah, and you get a check for eight grand, Wow, that's a lot of money. And so it helped save a lot of people in terms of getting thrown out of their homes and and run. How missed out on this order of magnitude is ridiculous about it. It gets worse somebody who's raised the middle class kid one year, even though you didn't have the job you have now, even though you didn't get a raised that year. The difference between having a job having a five percent raise or whatever, three five sent whatever it happens to be in the face of inflation, price of the pump, although that's down every day so far. But you know, it's like, WHOA, I feel worse off. But then again, I didn't get a check for eight grand from the government. They just among other things. Does that make any sense? No, it doesn't. It just me, it's just you. Does that make sense anybody? Or is it just me? Dude? I forgot about that one. It came back through and I was like, I have got to play this again. So this was after the stimulus checks and they were trying to send him out and he you know, I think it was with a fourteen hundred dollars or something. We that we didn't get eight. Yes, so he says, you got eight and then you got more and if you made if you were making one hundred and twenty grand a year, which how many people are making one hundred and twenty grand a year, that you got that eight thousand dollars check and you're like, whoa, but you're a little disappointed because of inflation and gas prices, but that's going down every day. Does that make sense? No, it doesn't give me my five percent raise because that's every year, man, it was, or you hope it is. No, I'm saying five percent That sticks with me no matter what, right that eight doesn't And you didn't give me a very stupid just just dude, that is who is running supposedly because you know he's not, but his mind is who's supposed to be running this country? Does anything he say count in any kind of business environment what he just mentioned? No? And I've always this has always been my litmus test for choosing a politician. Would I have them run my company? Yeah, he would not sweep my floors, dude, And he's running your country. All right, So let's now that was several years ago. Let's hear how much better he is now? Cut twenty two. I can't paign. That's about negative attacks and one about what we're for because we cannot get re elect We cannot win this reelection. Excuse me, we can only re elect Donald Trump. That's true, I know, said man. I'm surprised they didn't play a laugh track. I know. Oh this is who I mean. Listen, you get, you reap, You reap what you sew. We are reaping what we have planted, right we are. We have had idiots running our country through the Obama years and definitely through these years, and the people that are around him, none of them give you an answer that makes you go that guy knows what the hell he's talking about. None of them. When's the last time you have listened to someone give an answer from their staff on a CBS show or an evening show or an afternoon whatever. That you go, Wow, that dude knows what he's talking about the other day. You brought this up to me the other day when we were talking outside the show. George Stephanipolis tried to cut off the guy that was Trump's guy who was he used to run the Republican Party. Right, Yes, he would not let George cut him off. I wish we had that clip because it's great. It's just it's okay. So here's on the smart side. This is Matt Gates and I won't play all of it because it goes a little bit long. But he is grilling again the Attorney General. All right, so let's go to cut thirty. This is under this point. Hold on home, mister Attorney General, did you ever have a family member profit off of the notariety of any case that you settled to say? Again, you're a you're asking me to comment on a case currently. Well, it seems you're connecting the dots, mister Attorney General. I'm just asking you as to a general principle, but you are aware the judge Marshawn's daughter was profiting off of this prosecution. You are aware that that creates the appearance of impropriety. You know, the very reason there's a federal rule against judges giving donations is because it is the very attack on the judicial process that we're concerned about. Before its recognized for findings. Attorney General, you've told us that it's a dangerous conspiracy theory to allege that the Department of Justice is communicating with these state and local prosecutions against Trump. You can clear it all up for us right now. Will the Department of Justice provide to the committee all documents, all correspondents between the Department and Alvin Bragg's office and Fannie Willis's office and Letitia James's office. The offices you're referring to are independent offices of state. I get that. I get that state. The question is whether you will provide all of your documents and correspondence. That's the question. I don't need a history lesson Well, I'm going to say again, we do not control those offices. They may get there. The questions whether you communicate with them, not whether you control them. Do you communicate with them? And when you provide those community make a request, you'll refer it to our Office of Legislative. But see, here's the thing. That you come in here and you lodge this attack that it's a conspiracy theory, that there is coordinated lawfair against Trump, and then when we say, fine, just give us the documents, give us the correspondence, and then if it's a conspiracy theory, that will be evident. But when you say, well, we'll take a request and then we'll we'll sort of work it through the DOJ's accommodation process, then you're actually advancing the very dangerous conspiracy theory that you're concerned about. Here. You're that's good. I mean, it goes really good, exactly right. But Matt Gates is so good. I mean, we have good people saying at least we're saying things. If we hadn't won the Red Republican like, we wouldn't hear any of this stuff, right, we wouldn't have any of these hearings. Let's be honest. Yeah, if they hadn't have thrown out McCarthy, nobody would care about matth Gate, Matt Gate. That's right, that Matt Gates has been fighting. Let's not forget they tried to put him in jail. Yeah, like everybody just seems to forget this stuff. Dude. One of my underreported stories Epic Times, which I've really become a fan of. They're like a newspaper, but it's it's a right leaning newspaper. They just they just arrested the owner or the leader, the CEO, for sixty seven million dollars of laundering. And it makes you wonder, how does that guy launder money? And it starts a newspaper. Mm, it's that that thing that it's what Rand Paul talked about. It's the justice. No, I know, it's crazy. It's law fair, that's what they're calling. It's true. I've always thought like the same thing with uh JFK. Right, the whole conspiracy theories. Well, the government knows the answer. If you have documents that that will clear it, clear up the picture, release them. That's why they're not released. Correct, That's exactly right? Like a loose tubes. Why are like the Gingers and the ice train Caroline of Cavern? What up? Y'all get the guard fixed? Yes? We did, yes, well they did without me. I mean I got there and then they were had already gotten done. I did add flowers. Oh good lord, what you need pollinators? Well, your brother and Brian and your daddy and everybody else was down there helping. I'm sorry it didn't come. I got there late, Kevin. I have things to do. Uncle Perry was there. He did a lot. I got to see everybody. He plowed the field. I was plowing fields Friday night. Yes, he wasn't invited. You sitting hunting season saying? Did he not say hunting season? He did? That is right, it's not hunting season. We're not hunting up there. I'm sure we could do muzzle loader. You got a muzzle loader? Yeah, don't matter. I was sitting there trying to give a hint to just to start over Ken. What I was doing was I was trying to start like a conversation about it and maybe it would lead up to me being invited there. But evidently that didn't work. Your mission from Brad, Well, we'll take it up the chain of command. Yes, so's the one that is hindering me from going up here. Yes, he doesn't know about it yet. We mentioned you think he listens to the show. Now, I feel like I'm Donald Trump to where I'm just like I've gotta be on trial to go somewhere. I'm going to stay influence if I show up. Hey, I do have a question about my garden. So I did a little bit of gardening, but not a lot. I did up at the river, or yes, up at the river. So I did put two hundred feet of fence in. I saw that to make sure everybody knows that that looked nice. But on my own personal garden, I have four tomato plants and four pepper plants green peppers, right, Why would three of my tomato plants be just unbelievably awesome? They look great, Everything about him is perfect. But I got one just as dead leaves all over it. Why hmmm, I get through that many kids. You probably feel about one child about how they I'm serious though, I mean I got a planter bed, so it's not like it's you know, well, I'm serious too. If you had eight children, you probably had one that you'd be like, oh my gosh, this thing is ratchet. Momay, like when it was born, you're like, oh, it's the treasure, and yeah, let's bury it. Oh my gosh, mama, way cut the tomato plant up, Just pull it up, throwing the trash and get rid of it and replace it by new so it won't it won't itself because it'll probably spread germs and and yeah, I don't want that. It's probably that blight in it. Oh, we don't need that blight. We had that last year. We'll have already talked about this. And if you've not got educated enough, all I've been talking about this, I'm telling you my plans. Why does Kevin seem to be angry the last two weeks? He has been angry? What is going to happen? People to call me about that? About okay? Like, I don't know, it just seems so angry. Sometimes you have to be stern with people that don't listen. Okay, stern, stern it. How's everything in Carolina? Weather? Good? Y'all getting a lot of rain? Lovely? We just got two tenths of rains. That means I ain't had the water to garden. Mm hmm. That's good. Do you think you'll ever get to the point where you'll buy some land and so you can get a tractor and plow and do that kind of stuff. No, because I'm probably gonna be just myself, So why would I need a tractor dude. That's the best I'm taking care of myself because you can always give the vegetables away or sell them. But I mean, I could see you as a tractor guy, right, you get up in the mornings, take the tractor out there, pile the garden. I could see you doing that stuff. Hell, you can grow some mushrooms, sell some lines. Linds me. What's it called? I forgot that's working? Oh I'm taking mushrooms. I'm putting mushrooms in my coffee in the morning. Has that working out for It's good? Today was day one? Does that have a flavor? No? And why do you do it? Because of its health benefits? I look, if it wasn't working for people, I doubt it would be sold all over the world, although there's probably stuff it's all along the world. Bit you think it's the same powder. They just rebranded, just a southern name. It used to be oxy cut, now it's Do you remember all that, like the stuff that if you pourt in water to make you lose weight. Now there's a old hydroxy cut. Maybe that's what it was. Yeah, yeah, probably some praise. Are you still lifting you go to the gym? Yes, sir, I missed going yesterday those seven years in a row, so you are still going to the gym. It's terrible. Yeah, you got too. Yeah, it's good that you're in the fitness. Hey didn't don't you have a fishing trip coming up? Or did you do it already? Do I have a fishing trip? I don't know. That's oh okay, I thought you had a summer fishing trip coming up. He did a cruise early. I don't know. Did we ever get any feedback on your cruise? I mean it was it was all right, that was my first time going on one, but it was it wasn't. As put it this way, I'd rather go to the Outer Banks than I would on a cruise, amen, Man, I love the cruise. Like uh, I don't know why. I've always been fond of the Outer Banks. It's just a It's not where I want to retire to, though I want to know. I mean, I've been the Dominican Republican, Jamaica and all the mother players, but I can tell you the Outer Banks. I'd rather just spend my money there and go there. And that's probably where I'm going to end up without a tractor to plow my guard and I'll probably end up there retiring, and that's where I'll probably be for the rest of my life, is at the out of banks. When do you think you have a place anywhere? Yeah, plan for that. What's an enlighteness on the plan here? You got five more years cemeterian and then you're retiring or you're moving over there to cemetery a while. Well, since COVID hit and I can't find people to work, I've had to dig grave, so I've been gotten so good at running a back though. There's a company that's in Kenny Hawk that actually contracts full of North Carolina Department of Transportation to clean Route twelve, so I know how to operate a come Otzu to twenty back though. And I'll probably move to the outer Banks, retire from the Cemetery of business, and operate a back though, sitting and building the sand dunes off twelve whenever it gets overwashed. And I'll be just happy to where I'll have all time to spend. Y'all come down, we can chill, go fishing, and that's all it's all about. Lighting. That sounds good. I'm a great time. It does sound good. That's that's a good plan I'm in. I'm into what do you need? You need money for a baco or you got that comes with it? Now, are you? Oh? You just jump on and go oh. That's the company that runs that operates and got subcontracted at about you know, the n c UH Transportation, so they sub them out. They're the ones who have to sit there. When you go down twelve from Outer Banks to row Dance, you know there's over washed and you see those backos on the side of the road, front end loaders and stuff. H that's good. I'll be totally fine. I'll have the best view out of my window all day. Cool. You know. The one thing I don't think I have planned for. I mean I have really sat down and put a long term plan. The one thing that's gonna screw it all up is benefits. I really have no clue what that's gonna cost because I've always had it with Ashley and she's got government, so everything's been sort of health benefits, you know what I'm talking about. I don't know. I have no clue what that's gonna cost me. It's not in my budget portfolio right now. There's an alternative. What obamacay. Mm hmmm mmm, keep working. I forget eight thousand from from I can get eight thousand from Biden every year you make a Hey, Trent, let me tell you something. You're gonna it'll be a discussion as of it. But anyways, guy that I hired at the cemetery, he had worked in the industry before. So he's worked for thirty one years at a cemetery. And so he retired, and he's sixty five years old. But he retired at sixty two, and so you know, he filed and started getting his Social Security checks, you know, and he went to the store and played the lottery. But he won like two hundred and seventy some thousand dollars. Wow. And of course, you know he took it in a lump sum. They took out. I forgot what he said, sixty five or some thousand dollars out of it. He got three checks from the Social Security after he retired it started, so he got three checks and then he hit the lottery. Well, they'll his checks back for a year and a half because they said he made too much money from hitting the lottery. Wow. Can you believe that? Hey, man, They're they're protecting your tax dollar. Ken they're there, they're hawks. They they wouldn't waste tax dollars on something, would they. I was just like, are you serious? He said yes, where he said, I got three checks? I played the lotter hit it and then all of a sudden he said they wouldn't showing up. And I called and they said, well we see here were you You've gotten you know, got some money and that you can't make but a certain amount of money per year. So they they basically just took and pro rated it and was like, we're not going to send you checks every month for a year and a half. Okay. So the same government that would do that to an individual in Lynchburg, your president and the Green Party sent Lynchburg one hundred and eighty seven thousand dollars to plant two hundred and fifty trees front as part of the Inflation Reduction Act. Now, can anybody take this trivia question real quick? Yeah, how did inflation go up? Well? More spending, I mean just government spending, period. So just the government sending little old town of Lynchburg. And it wasn't like Lynchburg was special. Lynchburg is just another town across the country got one hundred and eighty seven thousand, not to plant thousands of trees, to plant two hundred and fifty trees. And they said, the reason that was going to reduce the government's expenditures is because the shade is going to reduce heat and reduce climate change. That will, let me tell you something right there, real quick, and I'm gonna get off here, okay, and I'll give you the word of the day. No right, I got one for you Tuesday. Don't hang up. I won't listening to the radio. I have a radio station's local down here I listen to every morning when I go to the gym. And they talked. They give a little segment about the record you know, of the day far as weather, like the temperature. So Monday's temperature record was one hundred and two degrees. So this past Monday, June the fourth, I guess June the fourth was Monday, but anyway, June fourth or third, June third, one of them, it was one hundred and two. Yesterday, Tuesday was one hundred and one. In today's record was one hundred and three. That happened in nineteen forty three. Wow, global warming. So when they sit here and try to pitch that we got global warming. What in the world do you call that happened in nineteen forty three on June the third, fourth, and fifth of why it was one hundred and two, three and five whatever, was like, what's happened? We keep letting them say it. That's the problem. We just need to tell them to shut up. Stop it. Stop spending one hundred eighty seven thousand dollars to plant trees that nobody cares about that ten years from now half of them will be dead. I guarantee you it came to about seven hundred or eight hundred and fifty dollars a tree to plant. That's absolutely stupid. Yeah. And by the way, Inflation Reduction Act, you're spending government money, which Bob Good said the other day was my favorite thing that Bob Good said. There was a time when we raised interest rates on mortgages that you get because the economy is booming and we're trying to slow it down. Correct, we're raising interest rates because the government is spending money. Yes, and they just spent one hundred and eighty seven thousand, and you good old Lynchburg, Virginia. How about what? How about what ran Paul the opposite of it, and I thought was terrific. He said, if we just stopped hiring, period, not adding job, just stopped hiring, didn't fire anybody, we would save billions and brillions, he said. And it's like, why are we hiring? What are we hiring for? They don't show up to work, And that that is a very that's that was the genius of nuke Gingrich to balance a budget. Yeah, it only took a small percentage of changes, that's it. And across the board. Because your government is so big, it's even easier now, right, But yeah, that's that's another way to do it. Just don't rehire. Let them retire. That's a good way to save a lot of money. Anyway. All right, what's the word of today? Hey? Should I give my words? He does his? I thought about him, and which way do you want to do? Okay? So I saw this today and I thought of you. It was on the back of a tailgate, and it was it was a truck little bread So it wasn't a manufactured it was a manufacturer of a truck. It was an odd It was ritten in the back of the tailgate. That's what I have right here. I drew it right here odd and it said underneath it, she'll get the d later. Wow in the background, holler, that's even worse. It was Emma. I'm sorry. Oh listen. I prepped her the first hour to be careful. I'm not sure it was a purple pill. It may have been a blue. Hey, Kevin, I'm glad you brought this up. Do you remember a guy in elementary school telling you he's going to check your back and he put you in a closet and he rubbed your back. I didn't say, Brian, I didn't know. They said the scoliosis test that they put him in a closet to check his back. Do you remember that. I know it ain't no way. You just had to bend down and touch your toes and they looked at your spine. Oh no, they took us in the closet one by one. Kevin was we had the poor shirt top. We met teacher Jeffrey Dummer. Yeah, it was at J. J. Freyes where the elementary school I went to. Oh no, but I want pray for you. That was in his top ten. Yeah, don't eat those tomatoes you growing especially. That was the twelfth grade shop teacher. Oh gosh, oh sorry, go ahead, word of the today. Oh believe in Trent. You better tell Brian and Brian you better tell what if y'all don't get that thing straight well this time and it cuts me off? I believe in this podcast. It worked right today. We fixed it. We fixed it. That's awesome. It was set to a fifteen minute time so now if he talks for more than ninety minutes, just call me yes titter because I'm gone. I still don't get of course we went in a closet. I don't understand the whole thing behind that. I don't understand the closet though. Have you have you sought therapy? It might open up? But can I say this one thing you were talking about? The government spending? Yeah, I did see something. Now I do like when I see innovation that I think works. Okay, So when we put the sour of the sour, the solar plant over top of the old landfill, it makes sense right because it's it's an investment that returns an income. Correct, Okay, I'm all about that. I saw solar panels today that I thought, now, see that makes sense. They built them in a parking lot of like a grocery store. So it becomes a cover, yeah, over top of each parking spot. And I think very expensive. Now that's a good idea. Do you know who looked at doing that? Who of all people? Bwst o the biggest parking lot you could possibly do it in, right, Yeah, And it was just too expensive for I could imagine. But I'm just saying, if you're going to build a solar that seems reasonable because at least you are giving cover in your cars, you know, or underneath cover. It makes sense to me. I thought it was pretty interesting, just the story that you know, land wide. Usually as things get more popular and the price comes down. But in the early years of my career, anytime anybody's ever priced it solar panels as a twenty two year return. Yes, before you ever get it. It dies fifteen years down the road, the panels. Yeah, no, I get that. I just for me, I thought, why are we you see it all the time they're buying up farmland to put these on? To hell with that? Yeah, put them in a parking lot. I'm not a big fan of it. I mean, we we talked about this the other day. It's like the liberals versus the liberals. You've given them the lead, You've given them a chance to lead and run things. Yes, And then you have the LGBTQ for Palestinians protesting against the Israelis or who wasn't No, it was another liberal group. It's the Hummas, the Humasu group, right, and they were fighting each other. I was like, well, yeah, no, shit, you're supporting the group that would kill you. Yeah. No, they wouldn't protest against you, they will slice your throat. Yeah. And they're fighting each other, I mean like true fist fighting in Philly. And the look of shock on the l g bt Q for Palestinians was, what are you doing? We're with you? Laughing? Yeah, a little shadow boxing. Yeah, oh you went to You got your weight loss? Yeah, sixty pounds seemed to steady on that. Yeah. I gained three, man, I caa't I lost three, but I gained six with you guys in Highland. It wasn't because of you guys. It was no. I didn't force anything down your throat. The twisted teas I was, Yeah, I was way too many of those. Don't you mentioned how much sugar the works was? The the vodka dill pickle. What the hell's wrong with you? You're like, oh this is good. I'm like it was good filters the Uh yeah, so I've I'm back back. I went back up. Let's see what am I nine pounds? Y'all cracked me up, hitting down on the chairs, all of you with your shirt off. We'll get a little farm song, a little farm son. Did I send you the picture of you on the four wheeler? I'll just send it to you. Emma, do you you farm any your garden? Ew? I have a black thumb. I'm not like a plant person. You have a black what thumb? I thought she said, I have a black farm back in eighteen sixty. Yeah, he's up here, Lord staut of the day. What Joe Biden? If he gets elected, God please please please, dear Lord, don't let that happen. Yes, but if he were elected, yes, his presidency from the time he was born to his presidency is longer than the time from he was born to Abraham Lincoln's presidency. You texted me that, but I didn't. I wasn't picking up what you're putting that. Okay, so the time that from so we'll do it from backwards to Ford when Lincoln was president, was less years between his presidency and Biden being born then when Biden was born to Biden's second presidency. That's how far back. That's how old Biden is. Yeah, he was born in the forties, right, Yeah, forty two I think so forty two back to sixty is shorter. Eighteen sixty is shorter than forty two to twenty four. Somebody please put a microphone in front of his face tomorrow and ask him how it was fighting on the beaches of Normandy, because that dude's liable to say he was there. Oh, yeah, for sure, speaking of that. Yeah, those that are still listening, Tomorrow is the eightieth anniversary of the D Day Memorial. Oh wow, I will be attending of D Day, not the memorial, Yes, yes, D Day whatever. It's at the memorial, right, yeah, I believe I don't know this for facts that don't quote me, but I believe Glenn Younkin is the speaker. That'd be great. He's great. Yeah, So I'm looking forward to it. It starts at eleven. I apparently, even though I have the IP parking passes, I have to be there at nine. But not sure what the I've not been to the D Day Memorial for an event. Oh, good lord, it would blow you. I don't think you would understand how many, Like what would you guess show up a thousand? I would if I had to guess, I would say it's five plus. But I I'll get the numbers on that. Because Liberty University comes up and puts out all the chairs and everything the day before, actually the week before, even while they're out of school. Oh yes, that's wow. Hey, do you want to hear any underreported stories or do you have something else? No, go ahead, mm hmm. The d o J is from Christy Clark. In her her show, The d o J has an internal unit that looks for hate crimes and they have categorized, categorized Moms for Liberty in the same group as the KKK unbelievable. I don't know what Mom's for Liberty is to you know. Yeah, so that's heard. They're attached to anything. So if if you're if you're on the school board at UH Bedford County, you're being labeled as a Mom's for Liberty person if you've been recently elected UH because you're because because you're not an educator. According to them, these are these are parents that have got involved and are on the school board and Mom for Liberty pushes for parents to be on school boards. Amen, they labeled you know, I accept, Yeah, but that's what this is that I mean, it's the fight back that we need to be doing. So it's the educators, the people that the Northwesterns, the Harvard's, you know those schools that have been putting people in their doctorates. Make sure that they're an educator and you've been educated. No, agree, one hundred per Yeah. I got into this argument one time with with a administrator who asked me to be part of the PTA, and I said, we are here today, you have parents here today, it's the PTA. Where are your teachers? There are no teachers at a Parent teacher Come for Teacher Association. Yeah, why it's PTA. They've got to be invested too. Yeah. Well they're here all day. Do it during school exactly. I just make the meeting during school. Yeah, And so I'm just it's one of those things. Was hope Moms for Liberty was labeled. It's just it's a group that they have been categorized by the DJ, which is what Rand Paul would This whole theme of the show has been and labeled them as the same as the KKK, same category. It's sad, like you're not allowed to have that's the thing, Like how dare you get involved in your child's education? Like, who are you to tell me I shouldn't be involved. I should just live it up to the person who is telling them that it's okay for a male to compete in a female sport, and please tell me this is it true or not true? The rumor that they have kitty litter in the bathroom because of the kids that think they're cats. It's uh, that is something that's been going around for a while. I don't there are kids that say it's true. I don't know. Yeah, I need to ask. I don't. A woman who stole a police car and ran over the cop that tried to stop her, and there's a video of her doing that in Chicago when she was let out of jail. Because they let her out of jail, do you know who hired her? The City of Chicago. She's now an accountant for the City of Chicago. Same lady. Jeez, crazy? What else we have here? Two police officers were shot in New York by a Venezuelan migrant of course. Yeah, it's like the stories happened so often now you just become numb to it. So I don't again. I go back to like, we lose so much as a group conservatives that and that's the thing, that's the part that I argue with. Man. I just got an argument with the guy today who said I can't support Bob Good And I said why because he was part of that group that oust did McCarthy, And I said, what did McCarthy bring you that was good? And they don't get it, man, They say, Brian, if you're not going to compromise at all, dude, that's all we've done. Do you not understand everything that's in front of you right now is because of compromise. Everything we lose everything. Everything that you said is stupid transgenders competing that come from a compromise. Yeah. So I had heard the story about Israel screwing up in the I guess the first bombing of Rafa. Yeah, okay, and there's like apparently there's a saying that's going out their eyes on Rafa, like where the world is watching what Israel is doing? And then I heard that Israel had to come out and apologize because the first bombing had killed ninety people. They didn't expect to. I heard that story, but I didn't hear was that was not a bad shot. It was a shot where they were taking. It was not at the un They made it sound like it had swayed and hit the un sanctioned safe area. It wasn't. It was a mile from that. Yes, their weapons is what caught on fire when it was shot. They were housing the weapons in with their people that were not at the UN sanction Like there are people to choose not to be at the un sanctioned area. They got obliterated. All right, I'm just gonna give you a fact. Yeah, if it ever came down to this, And on the news it said Russia plans on attacking Bedford and then they start sending us information from Russia saying, hey, we're going to attack you. There are people within Bedford We're going to attack, right, Brian, ain't here, No, I'm heading to the river. Yeah. It cracks me up. It's like the whole thing of Rafael. Why is that the place that that Israel can't go after Amas who has labeled that because I got them against the corner that the rats are in the corner exactly. You. I just I don't I don't get it, but I'm telling you. And it's the same fight that started back when Israel became Israel for the first time and King Saul was the first king of Israel. That was thousands of years before Christ. Do you know how we said that it looks like some tides are turning. We'd had the Washington Post, We've had University of Lunchberg. It looks like math is starting to make a difference on some things because follow the money, and that's where it eventually. Yeah. So you know Columbia University did all that protesting. It's Israel. One of their graduates had enough I don't know who it was, two hundred and sixty million dollars did not go to Columbia University and went to an Israeli university directly from an American good. Yeah, Columbia graduate. Yeah, he was probably Jewish. And you're out there protesting, yep, So like, think about what you're doing. Man, It just it drives me nuts with these people. Yep, you're so stupid. I did read something the other day that I found interesting and I think it was on this day in history, but I did and report on it. It was that Israel had passed a law that said, if you're Jewish, you automatically would be a citizen in Israel. Like that, you didn't have to go through this long process, right, if you're Jewish, you're a citizen of Israel. They passed it, and then it became a massive controversy because they never really listed qualifications of what a Jew is. So it's like after the fact, they're like, oh, you know, like how a Jew. You know Pocahontas, we know she will say whatever she wants to be. Yeah, that's what A couple of weeks ago, I still don't know how you tell I tell one, Like everybody talks about hating them, Well, how can you really hate them? If one walked in here? I don't know what's a Jew? Correct? I mean I followed Ben Shapiro forever. It wasn't until I saw he had the yamaca or whatever's on his head, Yeah, that he was one. Well I didn't know. I didn't, right, I mean, that's what I'm saying. So I didn't read the rest of the article. But I'm like, oh, who didn't vet that bill before they passed it. But I mean I could see what their point was obviously, but yeah, I don't. I wouldn't know the difference between a Jewish person and a whatever. I mean. I just I've always said religion is your choice, you can decide. It's when you start dictating stuff for me is where we start to have problem. So to end the show today, this is a graduation season and I've played this before in the past, but it's my favorite, one of my favorite speeches to give. Emma, have you heard the make your bed speech? Maybe if you haven't, just understand you marry someone that makes a bed. That's not it. It's not It works. So it's a really good speech. It's an admiral. It's twenty fourteen. I believe he's speaking at the University of Texas where he went, and the speech just caught wildfire and it makes it circle. When I saw it again, I was like, man, I need to find that. So this is just a small clip of it. It's about this is only five minutes song, but there's I think it's about fifteen minutes overall. If you find it on YouTube, it's fantastic. This speech doesn't tell you that you're behind in America, that you're not Yeah, a kid, democracy is not for you. It doesn't say that. No, it tells you how to tie your bootstraps up and get shipped done. Yeah, guess what. Speech not is not going to make its way through TikTok Biden's speech. The only way it would is people go, don't do that. And whoever wrote that thing, I know that what they were writing, they thought this is going to catch Oh yeah, this will be the next Martin Luther King. Yeah, dream speech. Yes, that's the way it's written. That's how awful it is. Yep, anyway, good. I thought I had a good time today. Yeah, we'll see you next week. If you want to change the world, start off by making your bed. If it made your bed every morning, you will have accomplished the first task of the day. It will give you a small sense of pride, and it will encourage you to do another task, and another and another, and by the end of the day that one task completed will have turned into many tasks completed. Making your bed will also reinforce the fact that the little things in life matter. If you can't do the little things right, you'll never be able to do the big things right. And if by chance you have a miserable day, you will come home to a bed that is made, that you made, and a made bed gives you encouragement that tomorrow will be better. To pass seal training, there are a series of long swims it must be completed. One is the night swim. Before the swim, the instructors joyfully brief the students on all the species of sharks that inhabit the waters off San Clemente. They assure you, however, that no student has ever been eaten by a shark, at least not that they can remember. But you are also taught that if a shark begins to circle your position, stand your ground, do not swim away, do not act afraid. And if the shark, hungry for a midnight snack, darts towards you, then summons up all your strength and punch him in the snout and he will turn and swim away. There are a lot of sharks in the world. If you hope to complete the swim, you will have to deal with him. So if you want to change the world, don't back down from the sharks. Over a few weeks of deical training, my seal class, which started with one hundred and fifty men, was down to just forty two. There were now six boat crews of seven men each. I was in the boat with the tall guys, but the best boat crew we had was made up the little guys, the Munchkin crew. We called him. No one was over five foot five. The Munchkin boat crew had one American Indian, one African American, one Polish American, one Greek American, one Italian American, and two tough kids from the Midwest. Out paddled, out ran, and outswam all the other boat crews. The big men and the other boat crews will always make good natured fun of the tiny little flippers the Munchkins put on their tiny little feet prior to every swim. But somehow these little guys from every corner of the nation in the world always had the last laugh, showing faster than everyone and reaching the shore long before the rest of US. Seal training was a great equalizer. Nothing mattered but your will to succeed, not your color, not your ethnic background, not your education, not your social status. If you want to change the world, measure a person by the size of their heart, not by the size of their flippers. The ninth week of training is referred to as Hell Week. It is six days of no sleep, constant physical and mental harassment, and one special day type the mud flats. The mudflats are an area between San Diego and Tijuana where the water runs off and creates the Tijuana Slews, a swampy patch of terrain with a mud will engulfume. It is on Wednesday of Hell Week, but you paddle out to the mudflats and spend the next fifteen hours trying to survive the freezing cold, the howling wind, and the incessant pressure to quit from the instructors. As the sun began to set that Wednesday evening, my training class, having committed some egregious and fractioned rules, was ordered into the mud. The mud consumed each man till there was nothing visible but our heads. The instructors told us we could leave the mud if only five men would quit. Only five men, just five men, and we could get out of the oppressive cold. Looking around the mud flat, it was apparent that some students were about to give up. It was still over eight hours till the sun came up. Eight more hours of bone chilling cold, a chattering teeth, and the shivering moans of the trainees were so loud it was hard to hear anything. And then one voice began to echo through the night, one voice raised in song. The song was terribly out of tune, but sung with great enthusiasm. One voice became two, and two became three, and before long everyone in the class was singing. The instructors threatened us with more time in the mud. We kept up singing, but the singing persisted, and somehow the mud seemed a little warmer, and the wind a little tamer, and the dawn not so far away. If I have learned anything in my time traveling the world, it is the power of hope, the power of one person. A Washington, a Lincoln, King Mandela, and even a young girl from Pakistan Malala. One person can change the world by giving people hope. So if you want to change the world, start each day with a task completed. Find someone to help you through life. Respect everyone. Life is not fair, and then you will fail often. But if you take some risks, step up when the times are the toughest, face down the bullies, lift up the down trot, and never ever give up. If you do these things. The next generation and the generations that follow, we'll live in a world far better than the one we have today, and what's started here will indeed have changed the world for the better.
