Kale and company weekday morning, six till 10. If you missed any of the show, hit up the rewind app. We're shot out of a cannon on Monday morning. It's going to-- we're going to crash before the country. Said that, which is coming up at 7.45. All right, let's get to the news at 6.07, round number one, the great Don Stensler. And good morning this Monday morning, November 18. It's not going to feel like mid-November in the forecast. I think you're going to love this forecast coming up. We are sponsored this morning in Kale and Company News Live by Budget Blinds. A lot going on in the news. Locally, I will update for you two different shootings involving two different 15-year-olds shot in these separate shootings that happened just yesterday under investigation by Philadelphia police. First, a 15-year-old girl shot just before the dinner hour before-- it was still light outside. It was 4.50 PMish on 29th Street, right near Cumberland. That's according to Philadelphia police. And then just a couple of hours later, a 15-year-old boy injured in an unrelated shooting. So both of these 15-year-olds shot hours apart in these separate incidents. And police looking through this one, looking to find any suspects in this one. As far as the 15-year-old boy keeps-- so both in different children's hospitals. The 15-year-old boy looks like he's in stable condition. And as far as the 15-year-old girl, she is also in stable condition. Excuse me, they were both taken to St. Christopher's not shop. So no information available on the potential motive. We don't have suspects. We don't have weapons recovered. And so police asking anybody with information. It's one of those that we hear all the time. So were these the intended targets? The first one, they're saying maybe more likely that she was not the intended victim. But again, not a whole lot of information. 15-year-olds on the night before a school day out around dinner time and gunned down. We have a pregnant woman who was shot to death in Delaware County. This is just a horrific story. She is dead. Her baby was in critical condition. They were able to deliver the baby. This all started in an apartment building. This is Lansdowne, Delaware County, Pennsylvania. And the police chief giving new information about officers responding to reports of a gunshot victim at a home on Waikom Avenue. And they found this very pregnant lady. Eight and a half months pregnant and suffering from a gunshot wound. Capital punishment. I mean, you should be given the stocker would say, give him the firing squad and kill a pregnant lady. It's just-- so amazingly, these first responders, I mean, they were able to rush her in. She was pronounced dead, but they were somehow-- very quickly, you have to do this very quickly, obviously, to save the baby. The baby remains in critical condition this morning as Lansdowne police there, as well as the Delaware County DA's office. I don't know if any feds are involved or state level, but we have a massive investigation as far as this one. So that one, I don't have a motive, no suspect in custody. And then as well, in Potstown-- we'll take it to Potstown-- where a man is charged with attempted murder is accused of shooting a police officer who was responding to a domestic violence call. So this is 42-year-old William Circola. He was struggling with the corporal involved here, corporal Anthony Fisher, while another officer was trying to put this guy under arrest when the suspect grabs a corporal fisher's gun, fires one shot at him. And so this began with one of those domestic violence disturbance calls that we talk about some of the most dangerous calls for cops. I bet you alcohol or some sort of substance was involved. I mean, yeah, that takes a lot of stones to reach for an officer's firearm. And in a two-on-one situation where the officers have you outnumbered and you're still able to get that firearm away from the officer, wow. So as far as the officer, the one officer injured, he is expected to make a full recovery, but was taken to the hospital suspect in custody. And like I say, facing these attempted murder charges. There's a lot of other news today. I know that we'll get to a lot of national news. I'll just take you to locally. We do have the update from our RNC attorney, Linda Kearns, as we have confirmation this morning that the official recount involving the US Senate, hotly contested race here in Pennsylvania being watched nationally, that recount has begun. It is underway, in fact. So remember that by law, they had to have begun the recount by a certain time, and then they have to end it by noon of November 26. And then they have to announce the results by the 27th. So legally, they had until the 20th, today's the 18th. They had until Wednesday, but they have begun that. But these lawsuits continue because at many levels, now, as we told you, the RNC attorneys, and I know Michael Watley was putting out social media over the weekend, making statements about it, the GOP chair, but they're watching this very carefully. And the state Supreme Court, Pennsylvania Supreme Court justices still have not ruled on the question before them. Linda Kearns had told us about that. They had filed that last Thursday. And so this would be a ruling in which the Pennsylvania Supreme Court is being asked to simply say that all of these cases, we've talked about those illegal ballots being counted in the collar counties, as well as Philadelphia. So the Supreme Court's already ruled, and it's very clear that they've said, this is not legal. You cannot do this, but they went ahead and did it anyway. So there's three questions I have. And I didn't see the answers into one link that we sent last night in our show prep. I want to know, are these recounts done by hand, or is this done by a scanning machine? Number two, I want to know how many people are actually in that recount room, so to speak, if it's done in a room. And then lastly, if it's done by a machine and we're recounting at a state level, how does it take 10 days to recount? These are the questions that I think average people are probably wondering and asking. Like, why is this such a difficult process? We're talking about counting items. You know, I get a bag of oranges. I open up my oranges. One, two, three, like 10 days? So the word from Linda is that this recount started in some counties. It is underway. It officially has to start by Wednesday, like I said. She personally was involved in training lawyers. Okay, over the weekend. Because to your point, they have to have lawyers in the courts and they have to be ready to be in all the counties across Pennsylvania to deal with all of this. You have to have certain witnesses on both Democrats and Republicans. They have all of that. They have lawyers and observers for all of the counties according to the RNC, according to Linda Kearns. And they are continuing to protect the vote. She says that they comprehensively train every single person and they have a huge team. In a separate action that I know I touched upon, they are appealing county board of elections decisions to count those ballots that should never have been counted in the first place, right? And so there's a hearing tomorrow on that issue in Philadelphia. There are also appealing county board of elections decisions. If they count provisional ballots, contrary to law, and they appealed Philadelphia County decisions from just last Friday, there was a hearing. There's another hearing today at 1 p.m. This is a very active and developing situation. And they're continuing to hold the counties accountable. They're also monitoring anything. The Casey team files and them responding accordingly as needed. And remember, last Thursday, that's when the RNC filed the Kingsbench. That's the Kingsbench appeal to the EPA Supreme Court that I had mentioned. And that's to weigh in on the dated ballots that are illegal and waiting for them to rule to stop that counting. Yeah. So there are multiple different levels, but the recounts are not done by hand. And they must be done by a different scanner that was used. Thank you, Linda Kearns, such as developing right now. And I put out the words all. And so I just got the answer. Thank you, Linda, to our election, integrity, RNC attorney, Linda Kearns. She says, so they're not done by hand, Nick. But they have to be done by a different scanner. Got it. That's all right. They said, we get one attorney and two observers at each recount. All right. Well, thank you for the clarification. That's great. All sides there. And thank you. Thank you so much. And the point here is be vigilant. And also, call your county commissioner's office. Let them know how you feel. Call in, go to protectthevote.com. Learn ways that you can, of course, peacefully, voice your concern about this as they drag this on. And so the recounts, as far as this goes, Philadelphia starts the recounts Wednesday, expected to take three days. So Philadelphia recount will take three days to Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. All right. So we got that going on. I know there's a lot of Joe Biden news as far as Russia, Ukraine, and Joe Biden, by the way, he was in the rainforest. Not a joke. First president ever to be in a rainforest. Yeah, my sources are saying that the entire Biden administration might actually be transported and dumped into the rainforest and left there permanently. I haven't confirmed that yet, but I'm still working my sources. Anybody here? So we have that going on. You're going to love the forecast. 68 degrees and mild today. We're in for a big change later this week. But enjoy really spring-like weather today. The holidays are coming.

Thank you, Budget Blinds, for sponsoring Cale & Company News Live, first morning edition. All right, Don, thank you very much. 617 Monday morning. Let's kick off the week with another big take. The big take on Cale & Company. And it is brought to you by Wawa. This morning, the big take, a Trump target shift. You know, the mainstream media and the Democrat party has screamed bloody murder at the top of their lungs for close to a decade about Donald Trump. And that has largely now been tuned out as evidenced by the results of the 2024 election. So what exactly is the pivot? Well, you shift your target to the new Trump administration. You vilify RFK Jr., Pete Hegsoff and Matt Gaetz. Except, I don't think that's going to work either, because it's a lot like the boy who cried wolf. Nobody believed him anymore. And the same applies to the media and the left wing of the Democrat party. Your cries of racism, sexism, and bigotry have fallen flat. Accusations of claiming someone is Hitler did not work. Bill Maher explained this in detail on Friday night. Listen and watch. Democrats run for office as if the voters don't live here, as if they don't go to the grocery store and Starbucks and the office, but they do. They live here, and they actually see women and people of color. And it doesn't look like some patriarchal racist nightmare. Do problems remain pertaining to racism and sexism? Of course. But a poll last year asked, if America is the greatest country in the world, more blacks than Hispanic Americans agreed with that than the white progressives? It asked if racism is built into our society, white progressives agreed with that at higher levels than black and Hispanic people. It asked if government should increase border security. Same result. Hispanic Americans are less okay with illegal immigration than whitey. (audience laughing) The votes are in. They don't want your pity. But when your party is full of awful candidates with bad messaging and failed policy, this is all that you can do. And it appears that that will continue and they'll continue to bang the drum of false narratives as 2024 comes to a close. Trump's elections so far have been major effused to the establishment. Washington bureaucrats are super uncomfortable because they know that their little playground is about to be torn down. And this time, Trump has the House, the Senate, and the Supreme Court majority. And at this rate, the MAGA movement with JD Vance in the backdrop could be a 12 year run of excellence. And that petrifies them. Things are about to get a whole lot more efficient. And that's because Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswami are cleaning out the dead weight and trimming off the fat. And the Department of Government Efficiency has an end date in sight for when this project will be completed. Here's Vivek explaining just that. Listen and watch. Look, part of what's holding back energy dominance in this country is that administrative state. Look at the regulations coming out of the Department of Interior, the slow permitting requirements, how hard it is to open a new refinery. So I think that is the root cause of our failure as a country is this unelected fourth branch of government. And I think they look at elected officials as these cute little puppets that come and go every little while. Not anymore. There's a new sheriff in town, Donald Trump's the president. He has mandated us for radical, drastic reform of this federal bureaucracy with the learnings of that first term. And you look, Elon and I, I mean, Elon's solving major problems of physics. I came from the world of biology. What we're solving here now is not a natural problem. This is a man-made problem. And when you have a man-made problem, you better darn well have a man-made solution. That's what we're bringing to the table. We're assembling the brightest minds in the country. This is the equivalent of a modern Manhattan project to take on. I think the major problem holding our country back, it's the federal bureaucracy. Target that cost, save the money, restore self-governance. I think we did something pretty novel here, if I may say so. If I just want to say is this government, Department of Government Efficiency, it is built with an end to date. We want to be done by July 4th, 2026. So for the first time in history, creating a department, creating a new government project that is designed to end when its work is complete, that's on the 250th anniversary of America's Declaration of Independence. And that's the gift we want to give this country on that birthday. But in the meantime, the Democrats, well, they'll continue on with their usual playbook, which is why we are now seeing headlines and wild claims such as Pete Hagg-Seth, is a white nationalist and a rapist. Matt Gates is the most unqualified AG of all time. Elon and Vivek are going to dismantle institutions, and Bobby is going to get us all sick, and we're all going to die. In regards to RFK Jr, the Babylon B with this parody headline, quote, "Fattest, sickest country on earth concerned, "new health secretary, might do something different," end quote. That's actually really good. In regards to Pete Hagg-Seth and his tattoos, the media and the woke morons jumping all over the white nationalist claims, and they look stupid and uneducated in doing so. The Templar cross on his chest that is caused in uproar is actually anti-Christian bigotry coming from the left, if you think about it. If I was Pete Hagg-Seth, I would sue everyone for these smear campaigns that are unfounded. And then when it comes to Matt Gates taking over from Eric Garland, well, it's causing grown adults in politics to break down and cry, literally cry on the hill. Listen and watch. - Doesn't mean you can't be attorney general, but he's not going to receive a very warm welcome from the career folks there. We've seen people today, our fellow reporters crying, hugging in the hallways. I've gotten sources from text messages from sources, Trump administration, the Biden administration. No one is endorsing this. - That clip from CNN, fellow reporters crying over an attorney general. Are you serious? Trump continues to break the brains of swamp losers and the media alike. And on Friday, it was RFK Jr. That was in the crosshairs of the media and Democrats. Crys of how he isn't a doctor, flooded the airwaves. But did you know Xavier Becquera, the director of the HHS under Joe Biden, he's not a doctor either. No, he's a lawyer and a career politician. So the horror of Bobby not being a doctor falls on deaf ears, left wingers. Your number two in HHS is Rachel Levine, formerly known as Richard. Maybe dial it back, perhaps like Eric Adams has. Here was the mayor of New York City on the view on Friday, defending Bobby Kennedy. Listen and watch this. - But let's be clear, that real problem with our food in our country. And we need to watch what we feed in our children. - What is the major problem, do you think? - Too much hormones, you know. Many people know, people know, people know I almost lost my sight with diabetes. The doctor took my way blind in a year. I was gonna lose my fingers and toes. And it was my food. It wasn't my DNA, it was my dinner. - But JFK Jr. - RFK Jr. ate some pork and now he has a brain worm. Is he the person that should be in charge of that? - Let's understand this also. In all of these agencies, there are thousands of employees and experts that understand these topics and their rules, their regulations. - Mayor, a lot of them want to resign. When they see some of the people that are gonna be on top, there's gonna be, I think there's gonna be a mass exodus of people who have the institutional knowledge and the institutional memory and DoD at HHS. Who wants to work? - And let me respond to that. If we love our country, then no one individual should take us away from our mission. If you dedicated your life to a particular place, I dedicated my life to law enforcement. So if a new commissioner came in that I disagree with, I was not gonna say I'm going to resign. Let's love the country. Let's love our cities. Let's get away from the rhetoric of the professionalism that we know. Those are experts in this. They're gonna look at his proposal to a real analysis and make these decisions. It happens every day. - So here are the options for the Democrats and the media. You can unite around the Trump administration going about things differently, or you can still take your L via the power of recess appointments. Bill Molusion of Fox News yesterday with the latest on Trump's plan to push his picks through. Listen and watch this. - And Trump has said he wants recess appointments to potentially be on the table, to push his picks through without Senate confirmation if necessary. Now incoming GOP Senate majority leader, John Thune tells Fox News that he's looking at every single option, including those controversial recess appointments, they will all be on the table to potentially give Trump the people he wants, whatever way it comes down to it. - Oh, and by the way, for the media, set to cry over Trump using recess appointments like he's some sort of dictator, Obama, and Clinton used them very often. In fact, according to every CRSReport.com, President Obama made 32 recess appointments all to full-time positions. During his presidency, Bill Clinton made 139 recess appointments, 95 to full-time positions, and 44 to part-time positions. And President George W. Bush made 171 recess appointments, 99 of which were full-time. You're welcome for those facts, Democrats. See, the truth is, no matter how you slice it or dice it, America is done. America is done with the rhetoric and the delusional arguments. America is sick of being sick. America is sick of hearing it's a racist and sexist nation. America is tired of seeing our tax dollars go to waste. America rejected the left wing after four years of man-made hysteria and freak-outs, and the Trump administration is set to take off and launch, and it'll happen the easy way or the hard way. And there's nothing Democrats can do about it, and they're running out of things left to stand on when you think about it. And that's the big take. - The big take on killing company. - Which is brought to you by Wawa, where right now you have Wawa pizza, and you have it for different sizes at different prices. That's right, Wawa pizza at a great price.

Game link problem, call 1-800-GAN. - This is the Cale & Company podcast from talk radio 1210-WPHD, and on the free Odyssey app. - We'll get to the mainstream mega movement that is post-election, whether it's signs going up after the election, or dances on television. We'll hit that as well as this female pushback to Trump's victory, and it starts really at the grassroots level and goes all the way up to Hollywood, and we'll get to that in just a few moments. But Don, I wanna give you your crack at it. Your thoughts on the way now, the media, 'cause it's fascinating, right? They've done the whole let's, you know, tar and feather Trump nonsense, let's call him Hitler. He's a fascist, but that fell on deaf ears. So now we've got to brand the newbies, right, during the Trump transition. Pete Hagg-Seth is a white nationalist. You know, Matt Gaetz is causing people to cry on Capitol Hill, and if you don't like it, Trump's gonna probably use his ability to exercise recess appointments, but it seems like now the kicking and screaming is in the direction of all of Trump's selections within his new administration. Your thoughts? - We know the playbook. We know the last time around what they do when Trump was president last time. What do they do? They accuse them all of being racist, sexist, rapists. That's what we're gonna hear. Get ready for the rhetoric. And so especially after, you know, an incredible weekend. I mean, that entrance with not just Trump, but the entire team. I mean, I've never seen anything like that. I mean, it was the music and everybody, the crowd is roaring and Trump's walking in. There's Elon Musk. The vake is there. You know these people, when have you known people in a cabinet by first name as if you know them? Elon, the vake. You know, you tell, say, you know what I mean? Like, you feel like you know these people. They're like the Avengers. That's what people are saying. - Different feel this time around compared to eight years ago. - So they already have. You know, he's quickly getting through these cabinet, you know, positions, getting people in place and talking a lot of talk. And they're freaked out. They are freaked out. The problem here is that, you know, the more you're giving them a hint as to what you might do months ahead, to me is this a little bit of psychological warfare. I think it is. A lot of talk, a lot of. So can they really get in there and do all of this? Well, you do have like congressional approval for some things. So it's not just that any person who becomes president in the executive branch. I mean, we do have checks and balances. - But he does have more power this time around. And when you look at the Senate, the House, the Supreme Court, he's about as good of a position as you can be in if you're a president, right? - I think so. But the Mitch McConnell, you know, I think that there were people concerned about Mitch putting into place somebody who in truth at one point was a never-trumper, went on all the shows, said all the right things. Is he really? So we will, we always have checks and balances in our system. That's how it was just created. So whether, I mean, even let's remember Obama, when Obama got in for the first two years, he had all Democrats, right? He had the House, he had the Senate, and what happened? I mean, they fought tooth and nail over Obamacare and everything else. He didn't get as much as he wanted to get done. So the system is created to have some bureaucracies. You can't do too much too fast. So what that means is that Trump has to keep his vision in focus and cannot get sidetracked by all of this drama that we know is to come. - No, and you're right. And one last note on that, which I think is kind of under the radar that people are not talking about. He has a lot of public figures in his administration this time around. To your point about not getting sidetracked, you know what Trump could actually do if he could control it? And I don't know that he can. He doesn't even have to talk. He could disappear like Joe Biden did during this administration and just allow his, you know, public speakers. - You would never let that happen. - I totally, I know, but Elon likes the limelight. Vivek is one of the greatest talkers imaginable. Tulsi Gabbard's not afraid to get in front of cameras. There's a lot of people that have been very public spoken and, you know, visually are comfortable on camera where he could be in the background just doing what he's doing to execute his vision and make sure that his policies take off and they hit the ground running. And of course he's gonna, you know, come out, he's a showman, right? We understand that. But boy, I'll tell you what, this time around, you've got so many bright people in your administration. You just let them do the magic and you pop up from time to time. He doesn't need to say anything, right? He made the comeback. He showed America that it was possible. You know what he was able to achieve in his first three years, the first term? You know, I know you can't turn down the spotlight and he loves it. But if he wanted to, he could sit back and be an executive and oversee things from a 30,000 foot view and maybe be successful. I really believe that. So yeah, we'll see how that plays out. But you know, he'll be on TV. He'll be doing this, you know, social media stuff. And the left will have their meltdowns. And I want to get to this too, because the MAGA Trump dance, mainstream media movement is taking off. Before we get to the NFL and UFC and dances and songs, I want to just give you some of these highlights from this story from Axios, because I've actually seen this live in my neighborhood in Montgomery County. So Axios has a headline, "Secret Trump voters have post-election coming out party." And they write the following. They're donning MAGA hats in cafes, celebrating on social media and flying Trump flags. Supporters of president elect Trump in deep blue cities and states are no longer keeping it to themselves. They go on to write that many Trump voters in these cities saw his victory as validation and are acting accordingly. Some residents of liberal enclaves tell Axios, they've seen more Trump yard signs go up after the election than before it. And many supporters of Vice President Harris are grappling with the fact that their neighbors might not have voted the way that they did. A study from Columbia Business School found that amongst those who kept their choice a secret, leading up to the 2016 election, two out of three went for Donald Trump. Quote, "I think people recognize that there is some kind of reputational cost of supporting Trump," says Columbia's Michael Slapian, who co-authored the study. Quote, "There's still such a stigma with being a Trump supporter. I'm not sure it's gonna be like that anymore," says Jonathan Alpert, a Manhattan-based psychotherapist who says patients told him they were keeping their support for former president Trump quiet before the election. And then lastly, Robert Kahali, a pollster and strategist at the Trafalgar group, says Trump people are out. People that would have been hidden a week or so ago are not hiding anymore. And I said this to my wife as we were taking the girls to dance on Friday. And I go from Blue Bell through Warchester Township, down, skip back in Germantown Pike into Eagleville and Collegeville. And I get it, that's a small sector. That's just one kind of destination, a path from point A to point B. But I'm still seeing Trump van signs up everywhere. All the Harris Wall signs have come down. And if this story from Axios is accurate, that now post-election, because you're guy one, and he won in resounding fashion by winning the popular vote, I could totally see people that might have had signage or flags or bumper stickers that they were afraid to advertise publicly, now coming out publicly and doing it because it's the popular thing to do. Phil, if we could play this, this is K3. You're gonna see John Bones-Jones from the UFC as well as multiple players yesterday in the NFL. And everybody is doing the Trump dance. Listen to watch this. (upbeat music) (upbeat music) Now you have Brock Bowers from the Raiders, DeAndre Hopkins from the Titans, John Jones from UFC, and a bunch of players from the Detroit Lions up in the top left corner of the screen. Even the 49ers and Nick Bosa, after being fined by the NFL $11,000 for wearing the MAGA hat, are doing this dance. We're seeing it in college athletics, professional athletics. We're also seeing females that are on social media, like outlets like TikTok, that are doing the Trump-shimmy dance to the song, the YMCA. I mean, this is becoming, I think, a cultural phenomenon. I actually saw clips over the weekend on of people across the pond in soccer matches that were doing it. I really think that this is a movement and we've seen other countries in elections in the last year and a half, two years, that they have voted for selected and won with a populist candidate. This is, I really think you can make the case that, and I don't wanna say conservatism because Trump's not a true conservative, but it's almost like he's made conservatism cool in a way. Do you get that vibe? - Yeah, I think that as, how long ago did I say, come out of the closet, people? A lot of conservatives, right? We're in the class, especially women. - You said that the Don Jr. event when we were on stage? - Yes, a lot of the closet. - Yes. - And so for people who just, I would have, during this past high school football season, people would come up and say, Don, I'm not gonna, you're not wearing your MAGA hat, I'm not over wearing mine 'cause my kid might not get the school play or I just don't wanna deal with her. It's edit it out. But I think that now that Trump won, people feel validated. And there's just, I mean, quite frankly, there is a dance. There's a celebration of, oh my God, thank God, that things are gonna go back to normal. This upside down land that we've been living in is over and it's a new era. And we're gonna just, we're gonna normalize things and get back to work and make America great again. It's really simple. But I think there is this sense of relief. I see more MAGA hats. My husband ordered me the Vance 2028. (laughing) The J.D. Vance hat, which I forgot. But I mean, I just think, you know, and then there's a Christmas Trump hat. It's like green with the red lettering, kinda looks like the fillies colors. But I seriously, I just think now people are out and thinking, okay, that this is over and that far left progressive stuff is over and hopefully it is. I think it's a feeling of relief and it is a feeling of celebration. - And I really do think there's something to be said for when you win the popular vote, right? I mean, there's more of us than there's not, right? When we come to looking at raw numbers for voting and on a political strategy front, I really do believe that Kamala Harris, the Democrat Party and the mainstream media, with their attempt to vilify masculinity as toxic and that Trump would be defeated by, you know, the alternative male, the Doug Emhoff's of the world, right? The Tim Walzes of the world and that single liberal women, and look, I gotta raise my hand, I thought single liberal women would be the undoing of Trump. I thought post Roe v. Wade, that would be why he could possibly lose. But this looks to be like the biggest political miscalculation of all time. By the way, the Democrats tried to just ostracize and criticize, you know, alpha type A males. And I think this is a rebellious bounce back of, no, you're not gonna sit here and vilify me simply by being a straight male, right? And you look at, I mean, think about it in the NFL. How many of those people, if you ask them off the record, are Trump supporters? I mean, I would bet 24 out of the 32 NFL owners probably voted for Trump. And I'd bet you more than 50% of NFL players voted for Trump. And then you go to combat sports like UFC and boxing. These guys aren't voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walls. John Jones is up there, he handed Trump also, he handed them a bell, he's climbing the octagon cage. I mean, like, what are we, what are the Democrats doing here? Maybe you should listen to Bill Maher and Fetterman who actually makes some sense because the far left cuckoo stuff did not land and it didn't result in a victory. - And how about, you know, how about the fact that John Jones said to Trump, oh man, you were here and I was nervous. - Right. - You know what I mean? And it was just like a nice conversation where he was like, oh, I saw you and I was nervous and I was fighting this and that. I will say a couple of things. First of all, the reporters were asking the Raiders PR team about Bowers Media availability. - Yeah, and they stopped him down. - I read that, I read that. - So NFL, the Woke NFL offices have got to go. And so what happens with all of that? - Yeah. - Because those, we saw during the movement of players who wanted to bend the knee and they said that they had a First Amendment right to bend the knee, right? Even though their contract might say that they have to stand for whatever. But now on the other side, we're seeing a similar thing with the right. And so how does that, how does that shake out with players who say, hey, I want to celebrate what's happening in the country, what have you? So I will be interested to watch that. But I think more than anything, when you think about what's happening in our nation, this is a movement toward the middle. And that's really, with Donald J. Trump, he was smart in his campaign. He was disciplined in the sense that he kept hope alive, fight, fight, fight, make America great again. Think about the themes that Trump pushed for. He talked about the economy. He talked about your safety. I mean, think about the Lake and Riley trial horrific going on right now. - Started on Friday. - Yep. - Started on Friday mid-morning. We took part of it live and we learned, we learned later in the day that this young lady fought for 18 minutes, was able to call 911. - I heard the audio of the phone call. - That mom in court, I can't even imagine. - Just awful. - So think about the impact as Madison Square Garden is happening and people are celebrating the Trump victory and so on and so forth. At the same time, we're learning about the situation at the hands, allegedly, of an illegal person in this country who had been in the hands of law enforcement, the Biden-Harris administration and Democrats and sanctuary cities at least twice and was freed and was let go. - Yep. - So all of that plays together to say, "Let's keep us safe." So I just think Trump's campaign was the campaign that kept hope alive and stuck to the middle and revealed that the other side, the incumbent party had gone too far left to the nation. - Yeah. - I think it was kind of a simple formula, think about it. - You're right. I'm actually glad you brought up the Brock Bowers post-game interview because apparently, according to reports, he's at his locker and once all of the media that was gathered around getting quotes from certain players that sit next to him to his left to his right, they kind of broke up and they were down to just one USA Today sports reporter who asked Brock Bowers about doing the Trump dance. He gave one answer to one question and that's when I think like one of the team media representatives stepped in and said, "All right, that'll do, boys. Let's wrap it up. Let's get on out of here." Yeah, Brock's gotta hit the showers. So I thought that was interesting probably by design. So I'm glad you caught that as well 'cause I was reading about that last night. And then just to wrap up here also, I mentioned social media and people returning to X. It's fascinating that all of these people, Don Lemon, Joy, Reed, Keith Olberman, they've all threatened and announced that they are leaving X and with that comes companies that left X under Elon Musk's ownership, they are returning to X and they are advertising again and those companies include Warner Brothers Discovery, Disney, Lionsgate, Comcast and IBM saying, "We have resumed ad spending on the X platform, although at lower rates than before." Kind of fascinating that all these companies that took a social or a political stance, Boycotted X and now after Elon Musk is on the victorious side of an election and a part of the Trump administration, they are returning to said platform that they were boycotting. Just one of the past that along as well, that story is a courtesy of Ad Week, if you would like to read it. 855-839-1210, the phone number. All right, so men are feeling good about the election results, but what about single liberal women? In fact, they're so unhappy, they're about to adopt a movement that was started halfway across the globe. We'll get to that story as we continue Don's news to kick off our two is next here on Kale & Company. - You know, when it comes to your home, trust is everything.

Week day morning, six till 10. I'm Tark Radio 1210, WPHT, and the free Odyssey app. This female 4B movement that we have to talk about. And also, well, a lot of issues with some females at Disney and ABC from Rachel Ziegler, who is who I like to call the Woke Snow White, and Whoopi Goldberg, big, big controversy regarding Whoopi, what she claimed happened versus what the rebuttal to that is. We'll get to that as well, but before all of that, let's get to the news. Round number two at 702, the great on Stenzland. And good morning, Kale & Company. News live this morning, Monday morning, November the 18th. We are in for some balmy weather today, 48 degrees right now. I'll tell you how warm it's gonna get. We are sponsored this morning by Piazza Auto Group. So in the news, we talked about the investigation into those shootings involving two teenagers, two separate shootings, not a lot of information on that. The two 15-year-olds, a boy and a girl, totally separate shootings, hours apart just yesterday. Those are still under investigation. A lot of other news this morning, and that's because we have a triple threat they're calling because we have three Philadelphia unions representing SEPTA operators and all the municipal workers. They're all threatening to strike at the very same time. - Uh-oh. - So in this one, we've been updating this for you. They've been negotiating, but we have, first of all, AFSCME, District Council 33. So DC 33, Philadelphia. This is the largest union representing thousands of blue-collar city staffers. And this has to do from your sanitation workers, in other words, your garbage collection, to those prison workers, to even library employees, as well as the school crossing guards. So it covers quite a large group of individuals. They are, they voted to strike, but they've been at the negotiation table. We're following that one. And SEPTA has been in talks with the Transport Workers Union Local 234, as well as those smart TV local, those workers who are more like your suburb, some of your suburban SEPTA employees. So this affects not just Philadelphia, but also some of your suburban SEPTA workers as well. So three big unions. They're holding these regular discussions. They've been in these contract talks, but three unions. I'm not hearing Mayor Parker speak about this. The concern is starting to grow here. Yeah. As it's now, these folks have been working, the vast majority working without a contract for quite some time. How awful do you think public transit, I mean, if SEPTA strikes, what are the roadways going to be like? Are we gonna be in like complete gridlock? For the individuals out there that take SEPTA, but still have a vehicle. I mean, all of those people then start getting on the roadways and those that don't have a vehicle, how do they then get to work? I mean, I would imagine Uber and Lyft, right? So now all of a sudden traffic becomes more unbearable. What about tens of thousands of school children that don't have school buses? Right. So they can't get to school and workers can't get to work in the city of Philadelphia. You can't get to city hall. Right. And then on top of it, your garbage in the past, the big one that everybody notices immediately is that your garbage is sitting out there. Yep. And then the rats get into it and the squirrels and the raccoons and whatever. And so it's a hot mess. Unbelievable. So... This would not be a good look for Chirrell Parker. She wraps up year one. No. I mean, so we're just following that one for you. Another developing story that we've talked about is the recount update. The recount as we broke that story this morning, the recount involving the hotly contested US Senate race involving incumbent Senator Bob Casey Jr. And Senator elect Dave McCormick, because by all accounts, everybody has called this race. So in this one, the recount update is some counties have started this. They must start it by Wednesday. That's the deadline that you have to have started it. And all of Philadelphia is what, 57 different counties. I believe Philadelphia County, we've confirmed that one, we'll start Wednesday or before, but should be done within three days. But I thought it was interesting that the Philadelphia Inquirer has a story this morning about Casey Jr. That, well, why is his case different than that of Trump questioning the election result in demanding recounts and so on in Pennsylvania? And they're saying, well, Casey is using the quote, and I'm quoting here, the system's legal channels to wait out vote tabulation and fight to have ballots count. So he's using the legal system and the court system, although the Philadelphia Inquirer does note that this doesn't seem like it's gonna go his way. But they're saying he's doing it legally, even though Trump as well did try to let us not forget, use the courts. - I saw two interesting headlines on Saturday, the Philadelphia Inquirer Saturday for a column. Bob Casey isn't conceding the US Senate race, but he's not denying the integrity of the election results either. And then the Washington Post of all places with a strong column, an op-ed, Democrats thumb their nose at the rule of law in Pennsylvania and the guy that wrote this as elections need rules and they must be applied equally and consistently. - And I'll just point out that it's my belief, I have inferred from everything I've learned, that the reason they reached that legal threshold, the percentage to even do the recount was because these counties initially, and we reported this last week, like Philadelphia, like Montgomery County, like Bucks County, they started to count those ballots that by all accounts are not, you're not supposed to legally count them. So that's what I have inferred from all of the information and interviews that I've done. And so if true then they were using essentially a pathway that might be called a dirty trick to try to trigger the recount when in fact, had they abided by the law of the land that the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania may very well put the kabosh on this. - Well, yeah, that's exactly what my argument was late in the week last week. I have no issue that you want a recount and that you are trying to figure out just how close you were to see if there were mistakes, but your methodology and the way you're going about it by looking for votes that are illegal, that we should not be counting, and we went through the four different, what was it, unsigned, undated, wrong dates, like no, those have to be discarded. I don't care what your party is, if you can't fill out the ballot properly, it is discarded, it should not count. - But Nick, they use those, what I'm saying is they use those to count to up the numbers. That's the allegation. And so that's, I mean, by all accounts, a dirty trick, if you will, that's the accusation and the allegation here is that you guys knew that this would be overturned, but you use this to even get the recount. And now that you're hearing, you're counting. And so that goes, the question there goes to somebody like Al Schmidt, who is, he says he's a Republican and he's following the rule of law, but are there ways that the legislature needs to look at these laws and tighten them up so there aren't any longer these loopholes because at the end of the day, and that's something Linda Kearns, when she's called in, what she says is that this is concerning to all voters, Democrats and Republicans, 'cause we don't want this to happen. We want these laws to be ironclad so that people don't question that their vote matters. - This is also a bad look for Governor Josh Shapiro as well, allowing this to happen under his watch with his party. - That's such a good point. So we'll continue to follow it, and hopefully it wraps up. And Linda Kearns, and she was texting us this morning and just letting us know that they have the proper amount of witnesses in play, that there are people, they fully staffed this so that on both sides, you do have individuals who are witnessing, you have the attorneys, and there's a ton of election transparency and integrity involved here to make sure that they fight to protect the vote. So we have that one going on. I wanted to just lay this out here, and that is an update about something we talked about earlier this morning that we could have a look. First of all, the Sixers in Miami tonight with no end bead or maxi, the Flyers have been on a winning streak. Hopefully they continue that winning streak again, again, tonight against the Avalanche. And as far as the update with a story that we've talked about, and Nick was talking about this earlier, and Greg was playing some of the audio about all of these different Trump dances and all of that celebration. We talked about the Raiders, PR team, basically silencing Brock Bauer's media availability after he did his, you know, his little Trump dance. But remember that we had talked about, Nick, you had talked about this, and Greg had played some audio with San Francisco 49ers star defensive end, Nick Bosa, and he before the election, he had run in during an interview that was live, and this was right before the election, he had to make America great again. It was not a Trump hat, it was a make America great again hat. He was fined the $11,255 for violating the NFL uniform and equipment rules. And Bosa did, he was quoted as saying, it was well worth it. - Oh yes, yes, he has absolutely said that. You know the NFL is like, is there a rule for that? Nick, where's the handbook? No, give me the handbook. Code three, section two, subset one, there we go. Yeah, whack him, what's the max, 11 grand, 11 grand? - 11,000, 255. The guy makes his extension, is the contract extension, I've looked it up, $170 million contract extension, I think it can afford $11,255. - $170 million, huh? - But I just find it's interesting that they're saying that you're not allowed to, to either in writing or give a personal message, but his message was make America great again. - Well. - You're not allowed to say make America great again. - No, you're not. Because the left implies things. - So I think he's just gonna suck it up, but I'd love him to appeal that and say, really, you're not allowed to say make America great again? - What's gonna happen when all these players start doing it, and there's so many of them, are they gonna find everybody? You know, I mean, eventually it's just gonna become such a popular thing, and you're just gonna have to accept it and deal with it, or else we're gonna have a lot of players that are disgruntled. I can see it getting to the point where these players just don't care anymore. I really can, especially the ones that make a lot of money, like Bosey, you just said, I didn't know that, $170 million extension. But, you know, if you're on a rookie contract, 11 grand means something to you, so. - It's so true. - Yep. - Well, we are sponsored by Piazza AutoGroup, PiazzaAutoGroup.com, and the season of performance events is here and has arrived at Piazza Actor of Ardmore, Reading, Westchester.

Men, post-election, signs going up, athletes, alphas doing the MAGA Trump dance. Let's look at the other side. Let's look at the female side. I've got a story from The New York Times, and Politico also has a similar version of this. The New York Times with the headline Men, maybe not. And this is in regards to this movement that began in South Korea. It's called the 4B movement. And I just wanna read you two excerpts. One from The New York Times, one from The New York, and one from Politico. And then we're gonna get to a little old Snow White, Rachel Ziegler here in a minute. But The New York Times, Mary Solis writes the following, "If you were looking for a single example of just how strange things were getting between men and women this election cycle, one political ad seemed to capture the mood perfectly." I believe Stalker actually played this on the cut sheet a while back, probably in October. It was an ad that was narrated by Julia Roberts. It featured a woman who was accompanied by her husband to the polls, but alone in the voting booth. As she considers her options, she catches another woman's knowing eye before privately filling in the Harris Wall's bubble. He'll never know their subtle nod to each other seems to say, and he'll never understand. Quote, "Did you make the right choice?" The woman's husband asks when she emerges. "Sure did, honey," she replies. Then she goes on the right further. In the last year alone, there has been an explosion of young women who say they are deleting dating apps whose market value is plummeted, female celebrities, among others, who have taken vows of celibacy or identify as, quote, "self-partnered, divorce memoirs by older millennial and Gen X women expressing profound disillusionment with heterosexual marriage and trends like boy sober, which preaches the virtues of de-centering men to focus on self-improvement and platonic relationships. President-elect Donald Trump's decisive election victory last week seemed to turbocharge feelings of the unrest, at least amongst those who didn't vote for him, leading to a surge in interest in South Korea's 4B movement, which encourages women to reject dating, marrying, having sex, and children with men. Politico writes the following, "Is the 4B movement a vision for life without men in the next political protest sustainable? No sex, no dating, no babies, no marriage? How the 4B movement could change America." All right, there's going to be a lot of unhinged, unhealthy women out there that are going to have breakdowns, and I don't think this is sustainable. Don, you feel free to clobber me in the head at any moment if I say something out of line, completely sexist, but I actually, and this-- - You have a lot of bruises if-- - Yeah, it would look like a battered husband, wouldn't I? Like, I believe that it works both ways. You know, men need women, women need men. We can all sit here, I'm done with chicks, and ladies can say, "I'm done with men, those pigs, those B words." So, because eventually, eventually, when you settle down and you think about marriage, and you think about children, you gotta bring the opposite gender, home to meet mom and dad, right? And you can't bring certain items home to meet mom and dad. You can't bring a website home or an app. Eventually, you bring that physical being next to you and you say, "Mom, this is Chelsea. Dad, this is Bobby, we're in love," right? But I feel like this movement is out of spite, I think. Is that the best way to say it? - Yeah, it's out of spite. And by the way, you are correct, we both genders need each other, but men need women, a lot more, for these men. I mean, that's just the facts. I get it, I understand, I understand what you're saying, but men really need women more than women. - Well, especially men like you and I, because we're very inept at many departments, we can't assemble things. You know, we're just, we're terrible at that, right? But I wanna play you this. This was, we've played you this clip before. Phil, this is K-1. This is the Woke Snow White. This clip was probably about a year old, but she's back in the headlines again post-election. This is Rachel Ziegler when she went off about a year ago on the new Snow White that is now coming out in 2025, where she basically says, we're redoing Snow White in the Progressive Era, and she doesn't need a man. Listen and watch this. - No longer 1937, it's not gonna be, yeah, by the prince, it's not gonna be safe at the prince, and she's not gonna be dreaming about true love. She's dreaming about becoming the leader she knows she can be. And the leader that her late father told her that she could be if she was fearless, fair, brave, and true. The original cartoon came out in 1937, and very evidently so. There's a big focus on her love story with a guy who literally stalks her. Weird, weird, so we didn't do that this time. I was scared of the original cartoon. I think I watched it once, and then I never picked it up again. I watched it for the first time in probably 16, 17 years. The cartoon was made 85 years ago, and therefore it's extremely dated when it comes to the ideas of women being in goals of power. - So that is the 23-year-old Rachel Ziegler, who we played this for you about a year ago. That movie, The New Snow White, will be coming out this March in 2025, and she had a social media meltdown over Donald Trump winning the election, where she posted the following, and I think this was on Instagram. I find myself speechless in the midst of this. May Trump supporters, and Trump voters, and Trump himself never know peace. Another four years of hatred, leaning us towards a world I do not want to live in, leaning us towards a world that will be hard to raise my daughter in. By the way, she doesn't have a kid, she's not married, she doesn't have a daughter. So now there's a lot of pushback to that, and she had to issue a bunch of apologies, saying, quote, "I would like to sincerely apologize for the post-election post I shared on my Instagram last week, that she wrote in a stories post on Friday after the election. I let my emotions get the best of me. Hatred and anger have caused us to move us further and further away from peace and understanding, and I am so sorry I contributed to the negative discourse. In a magnanimous gesture, she added that she believes everyone has the right to their opinion, even when it differs from my own. Quote, "I am committed to contributing positively toward a better tomorrow." You know, I don't know, Don, if I was Disney, and I'm paying Rachel Ziegler a ton of money to put out a new rendition of Snow White, and I'm a company that has been labeled as super, super woke and anti-Trump, and everything that Disney has touched lately with their progressive reboots of timeless classics, as they try to put a left-wing slant on characters and themes and storylines of things that have been tremendous for over 100 years, they all crash and burn, they all bomb, and I don't need a 23-year-old with no kids, not married, has really zero responsibility, as Greg Stalker would say, has zero skin in the game, all of a sudden denigrating half of America. Because the last time I checked, Rachel, Trump supporters, you know what? They have disposable income. And what do you do when you have disposable income and you have a family at some point with your children from birth until 18? What's a bucket list item for many families? A trip to Disney World. Why would you want to alienate half of the country with your social media posts as a 23-year-old that doesn't know what it's like to be a real adult? These are the type of people out there that I just can't stand. I think a lot of ways the Disney executives and a lot of them are a lot like, well, they are Democrats, but they have the same mindset in that they misread where the country is going. 1,000%. And now, all of a sudden, they look stupid, and I have in 20 minutes, I have probably the greatest clip you will ever see. People who literally called Trump Hitler, now are bending the knee. I kid you not. I will play that in about 20 minutes. But, but, but. I think that a lot of them misread this, and that's why they are-- - Because they live in a bubble. - Yeah, exactly. - They live in a bubble. Look, get over yourselves. First, number one. DJT, I mean, Trump won the popular vote. It's, what is it, by the time? We're still at 99% reporting, but closing in on 77 million people voting for Trump. - Right. - So this is, this is a huge election, and I think that at the end of the day, when I look at these women that we've been, we've been showing over the past since election day, women saying, you know, I'm gonna shave my head, or crying over an app or whatever. What I see here, honestly, is that these individuals need help. No, I'm, and I'm really serious. - I agree. - You have a mental health crisis that has nothing to do with Trump. And so, I'm glad that they're publicly revealing their own personal mental health crisis that's going on, and their family and friends need to rush to them and help them, because it has nothing to do with politics, has nothing to do with Trump, they need help. - Yes, I agree. I mean, she gives off AOC vibes. First of all, she looks like her. - She's gonna say. - She kinda sounds like her, and it's the same rhetoric that you get from like, squad dem females. - I don't need Ben, I hate Trump, but the world's gonna burn. - And yet, AOC has a, you know, is married or engaged, and some say even maybe having a baby, with Riley, her fiance, or her life mate, whatever you wanna say, so. - And he's a white guy, right? - Yeah, and I would say this, that should we not look at these narratives, given out by Democrats, saying that you're in danger, that MAGA Republicans, not just the candidates, but the MAGA supporters, they're a danger to democracy, perhaps this is the impact, that you have told people with a serious face, that you think not only candidates, but their supporters, like me, okay, that I'm somehow a danger to democracy or to you. And that's horrifying, and maybe we could ask the question, well did you all, and the media that carried that narrative, did you actually contribute now to a mental health crisis among in particular young women? - Yeah. - Shame on you. - Yeah, it's just laughable, I'm not even really angry at somebody like Rachel Ziegler, she's young, she doesn't know any better, I was oblivious when I was 23 on politics as well, but man, from a bottom line business standpoint, you've got a movie coming out in five months, why are you trying to shoot yourself in the foot? You're not paid for political commentary, just shut up already. She was getting roasted late last week, and rightfully so, and by a lot of people that said stuff is far worse than I'm saying. I'm not gonna sit here and say some of the things that others said, but I will share it, and I'll pass it along, Megan Kelly called her a pig. - Aw. - Called her a pig. - Look, I just think that these people got played, they bought into all of this stuff. - It's just enough with the hysteria, and the worst part is, and she's probably too young to realize it because she was 15 when he got elected, it's like Rachel, you already lived through a Trump presidency once, it was your high school years probably, if you were still in high school and not working full time as an actress, as a teenager, how bad was your life? - They've been manipulated, I mean, some of these people are having mental breakdowns, and it's not funny, and it's not good, and then they should look at Joe Biden welcoming Trump to the White House last week, all smiles and happy, everything's good. Welcome back to the White House. This was all, this was all just like a Madison Square Garden pregame event where they were just talking tough. They didn't mean it, Biden didn't mean it, none of the Democrats did, and so for these young people who now suffer, I mean, I think some of these people genuinely are having a mental health breakdown. - Yeah, 855-839-1210, if you wanna jump in, but first a word from my friends at DuckDuckGo, because we're all tired of the big searching engines out there, right, Google, Yahoo, Bing, Microsoft, we don't trust them, they suppress search results, they spy on you, it's just awful, and that's why I'm so proud to partner with DuckDuckGo again.

We'll get through all of your calls here. Let me start right at the top. We'll go back to a lot of the sports Trump dancing impersonations conversation. Neil is in Dover, and he has some thoughts. Neil, good morning, how are you? - Hi, good morning. First of all, I used to live in Jersey, and I'm living Dover now for two years, and I'm still able to get this station, and I'm so happy. - Great. - 'Cause you guys are the best station in the morning, so. - Thank you, thank you. - I'm all great, but I love you. You do a fantastic job, so. - I appreciate that. - Anyway, I stopped watching NFL for a while, 'cause when those could wear a mega hat, but back into their helmets, they're allowed to put Black Lives Matter, all these social commentaries on the back of that helmet, but that was okay. - That's right. - Yep. - And I don't think that doesn't make sense. - Yeah, to me, the hypocrisy of this with the NFL is, whether it's on the back of the helmet, you can have these personalized social justice messages. We've got end zones that have political and social justice messages, yet Nick Bosa goes up on Sunday night football behind a live reporter wearing the mega hat, and he's whacked for $11,000. By the way, that's post game. So it's not like he was wearing that on the field and making a political statement during the course of the game. - That's a good point. - Right? - Yeah, you guys, take you up the good work. - Thanks, Nick. - I enjoyed holding in there if you want for a while. Thank you. - All right, well, you're welcome anytime, Neil. Neil and Dover, there you go. - Signal loud and clear and Dover Delaware. - About that, nice. - Good, all right. Let's get to some of the people that wanna weigh in on the Snow White female commentary, and we start with our buddy Ted. He's in Swarthmore. He's up next on Talk Radio 1210. Hello, Ted. - Hey, good morning, guys. How you doing today? It's a wonderful day in this world. - Yes. - Hey, as far as the women, I thought that, you know, Roe v. Wade was on the ballot and people were gonna die, yet they figured out, all they have to do is stop having sex and they won't need an abortion. That's interesting how that works. - Oh my God. - Totally interesting. Yeah, and there's a lot of ways to look at it, Ted. I mean, on the state level and in, you know, primaries and non-presidential elections, it is blown up in the face of Republicans. I think it'll be interesting to see moving forward if that continues or if Trump's an outlier, right? Maybe it was just because this is a presidential election, the economy, the border, things like that. But when we get to 2026 in some of these smaller races, so to speak, I'll be interested to see how much that plays out at a grassroots level, but a state level or at a local level. - Yeah, and it's just one more complaint of something that they're making out. You know what? I just say it over and over again, just wait, they'll change their mind real soon. - Well, I think really what the Democrats need to do is honestly, they need to pivot away from all of this far left stuff. Because if you look at any of the polls out there, you know, who subscribes to this policy and how many people actually believe biological men should be competing in sports with females, it is such a fringe percentage of Americans. You're not in a country right now, this divided, where you hear so many people saying, I just want common sense policies. You're not going to win on all of this absurd nonsense that only 9% of Americans subscribe to. Like I think Republicans found out the hard way three years ago that you're not going to win on the culture wars, right? Like we saw DeSantis and guys like Glenn Yunken have success a few years ago. And then after that, that anticipated red wave never materialized. And I think Democrats were like, okay, we just keep riding this out, we keep riding this out. I think they realized it's not a winning formula for sustainability moving forward, right? Politics is cyclical, guys. - It really is. - It's just, the pendulum swings. And whenever the pendulum goes too far in one direction, the electorate brings it back in 1991, 1992, the electorate felt like the religious right was taking over too much of the country, so they brought in Bill Clinton. It's an ever evolving thing that swings back and forth. So if the question is, have the Democrats learned a lesson? No, they haven't learned a lesson. They're going to keep going down this road. It's just that the electorate told them, hey, pump the brakes a little bit on all your nutty crap. And let's get back to some reasonable discussions. And so to sit here and say, well, is this a trend, is this a new, no, we don't know what four years is going to bring. Good God, nobody knows what four years is going to bring. - The best chance, I think, four years from now from Democrats to presumably, let's say it's JD Vance. And by the way, it's not like Trump and JD Vance are some right-wing platform with far-right policies. They're very common-sense policies. I would argue they're probably a little bit closer to moderate than they are conservative. The best chance the Democrats have will be to try out their own sort of common-sense moderate candidate with policies, right? Whether that's Shapiro, whether that's Federman, whether that's Andy Beshear, the governor of Kentucky, if they think they're going to roll out Gavin Newsom and all the left-wing Looney Tunes stuff from the West Coast, they're probably going to stare the same defeat in their face unless, for some reason, Trump's an unmitigated disaster, which I don't anticipate that happening. Jason is in Mount Hawley, he's up next. Jason, you're on Talk Radio 1210. - Hey, good morning, guys, how you doing? - Good. - Good, there were a couple of things. Yesterday, I was in a shop right in Mount Laurel, and I ran across the lady, and she saw me with my MAGA hat on, and she went ballistic on me, and I noticed she had a shaved head, and I realized she had, when I looked down at her wrist, she had one of those blue bracelets on. So she started saying, "Oh, you should be a, huh?" - Like a medical bracelet? - No, it was like a blue bracelet that I guess they're identifying themselves as. - Blue Sky is the new social media app that a lot of Democrats have- - I saw that. - fled to, so I don't know if it had something to do with that, but yeah. - And that's, is that an alternative to X? - Yes. - Okay, I've seen actually some people that I know, that I like, that I get along with in sports. - Did you not let him finish a story? - What's that? - No, I'm trying to stay on the clock here. Trying to stay up to speed here. - Yeah, I was interested to hear what he had to say there. - I'm sorry about that. Who was that? Jason, I'm sorry, Jason, I zapped you too quickly. But I've seen a lot of people with these, they're now advertising that they're going to the, what is it called, Blue What? - Blue Sky. - Blue Sky. - I think so. - I'm looking it up, it's the blue bracelet movement. - Oh, okay. - I thought he meant 'cause some of the medical bracelets for mental hospitals are blue. This is what I thought he was, when you said what blue bracelets? - And so, to your point with the bracelet on blue, blue whatever bracelets, and what does that signify? What are you telling people? - That they're white women are feeling betrayed by their peers who, the other women who voted for Trump. And so, it's called the blue bracelet movement. I'm looking at a glamour mag, 'cause I knew you guys were your glamour maggies. - We do. - I check it out every time I'm in the grocery store. - They're saying where a blue bracelet to show that this is your way of protesting. - So, does this replace the purple hair dye, or the glasses, or does this replace like wearing a mask in public in 2020? Is this like a sign of virtue signaling? That's the feeling I get. That's the vibe I'm feeling right now. Very interesting, blue bracelet. All right, well, whatever you gotta do. Knock yourself out. - Yeah, I don't understand what it, whatever it is. - It's on TikTok, it's on social media. - Yeah, I can guarantee you I will never be on blue sky or any of these other apps. I'm a one app kind of guy. 855-839-1210, the phone number. We'll come back, see what Stalker has lined up for a Monday edition of the Cut Sheet.

All right, this isn't very interesting to me because the morning Joe, Joe Scarborough, make up for since he spent four years telling us about how Donald Trump was a threat to democracy. Mika wore black on the day after the election. She was going on every show that would have her, talking about all these women that died from before. I mean, like literally, hand-made sand was gonna happen if Trump was elected. Well, this morning, as we were gabbing it up here, they, they, they disclosed that they went to a Marlago to throw out in all of Branch to Donald Trump. Wait, they, they visited Hitler? Oh, they visited Hitler. (laughing) If you, let me just say this, everybody knows this. Everybody knows this, but I say this all the time. I don't care what side of the aisle we're on, either by the way. They're all phonies. Stop believing them. They're all phonies. Morning Joe and Mika. Blue, we went to, we went to Marlago. I feel phoned. Yeah, I feel phoned too. I feel phoned for him. Yeah. All right, play, play a little bit of this until my, my guts hurt me. (laughing) I'm a vomit from these two elitist debags. By several of President-elect Trump's cabinet selections, and they are scared. Last Thursday, we expressed our own concerns on this broadcast and even said, we would appreciate the opportunity to speak with the President-elect himself. I'm believing him. On Friday, we were given the opportunity to do just that. Joe and I went to Marlago to meet personally with President-elect Trump. It was the first time we have seen him in seven years. Now, we talked about a lot of issues, including abortion, mass deportation, threats of political retribution against political opponents, and media outlets. We talked about that a good bit. And it's gonna come as no surprise to anybody who watches this show, has watched it over the past year, or over the past decade, that we didn't see eye to eye (laughing) to a lot of issues, and we told him so. What we did agree on was to restart communications. Oh, good. My father often spoke with world leaders with whom he and the United States profoundly disagreed. That's a task shared by reporters and commentators alike. We had not spoken to President Trump since March of 2020, other than a personal call. Joe made to Trump on the morning after the attempt on his life in Butler, Pennsylvania. In this meeting, President Trump was cheerful. He was upbeat. He seemed interested in finding common ground with Democrats on some of the most divisive issues. And for those asking why- - Did you take careful? - Would go speak to the President-elect. - I'm trying. - I've brought times, especially between us. I guess I would ask back, why wouldn't we? Five years of political warfare has deeply divided Washington and the country. We have been as clear as we know how in expressing our deep concerns about President Trump's actions and words in the coarsening of public debate. But for nearly many Americans, election denialism, public trials, in January 6th, we're not as important as the issues that moved them to send Donald Trump back to the White House. - How are you saying you're out of touch, Alita? - Yep. - Joe and I realize it's time to do something different. And that starts with not only talking about Donald Trump, but also talking with him. - Oh man. - I mean, you know, where do you begin? I guess I'll start with the reopening the lines of communication. I'd like to know what those lines are. Is it a text relationship? Are you guys gonna FaceTime once a week? I mean, you know, how do we, you get a shoot on email that, you know, maybe a DM on social media? That's what I would like to know. But they are just two uninteresting, unlikable hacks. And I honestly, God, and I don't say this because I disagree with them politically. I don't understand the desire to tune in and watch a husband and a wife do a show. I mean, you know, with all due respect. - That's what you take from it? - It's like they're sitting at the dinner table. Why don't they just fill out their, balance their budget and their checkbook while they're at it? I don't get the format. I mean, I'd rather them be on prompter and reading scripted as opposed to ad-libbing. But it's just like, so all, and by the way, kudos to, let's give Trump credit here. I, again, I've said this for about two weeks now. I would find it very difficult for me personally to sit down with somebody, shake somebody's hand like he did Joe Biden last week, or welcome those two thieves into my property. - And think about this. - But the rhetoric led to people shooting at my head. - But think about this. These two, and this was before they were married when at least one of them was still married to their other spouse because they didn't begin as a married couple in their show, "Let us not forget." But these two, reportedly on the dime and generosity of Trump, they were buddies to him. - They were. - They sucked up to him. - They did Donald's. - Right? - Joe Scarborough here. - Yeah. - How you doin'? Hi, Donald, we have the voicemails. - Yeah, and they would go to Marilago and he would feed them and put them up in this beautiful, exclusive place. They said they were friends of his, and then they give him the shiv, stab him in the back all of these years, and now they realize what's goin' on. Yeah, all from political expedience. What this shows is, and to Nick's point, I mean, what this shows first and foremost is that President Trump realizes like they gotta kiss his ring. That's what this is. They are kneeling down, they're on their little pathetic knees and they're kissing his keister and they're kissing his ring. But what Trump gets about this is he knows the game and that's why he can stay in the game. He knows that when Biden was saying all this maga stuff and it was all just part of the game. And what we, the people, need to realize is that it's all a game to them. They're not sincere. Yeah, but that's fine, and I understand the way these politicians operate. I get the way the media operates, but I mean, we have to draw a line where you can't be calling a guy Hitler to the point, and it's twofold. It's bad enough that they used, that they resorted to that level of rhetoric, and then it leads to the crazies out there, the one to 5% on both sides of the political aisle that take all of this way too far and resort to violence. So like, the Trump's a better person than I am then. I mean, I can't believe I'm saying that, but I would ghost, if Mika or Joe called me, I would hit the client so fast their head would spin. I would say this, that he's not doing that because he, and that's part of the reason. That's part of the reason he's the king of this, because of his background in the hotel industry and what was he, look at his friendship with Dana White. He gets it, the pre-game psychological warfare that everybody, yeah, you're not bigger, and I'm gonna knock you out in a punch. That's all this was. It was all just silly, pre-game rhetoric. Trump got that, and that's why he's saying, "Yeah, kneel down, kiss my ring now." - Let me ask you as a question. Doesn't it do them a disservice to their audience, to even have this conversation? I mean, look, you're the opposition channel now, like embrace that. I don't understand this thing where they're going on their network that granted not many people watch MSNBC, but they still have okay numbers. I mean, they're beating CNN. And their numbers are only gonna increase over the next four years. Why even go down this road? Just be the opposition party. - I'm glad you brought up their numbers too, because there's been a lot of coverage on how their audience has disappeared by 25 to 50% post-election. - I was gonna say, you know it better than I do, but this is gonna be like the holiday post-mortem, like we'll be back by January, right? - I think that this is, we talked about this before, and this is, the financial news has been talking about the fact that Comcast, I think, was waiting for after the election. I think Comcast, this is not a winning investment, and they probably are sucking up, because maybe, I don't know, do they think they're gonna get a job in the Trump administration or something? I have no idea. - So that's interesting. So you're, which is a-- - You're desperate. - Yeah, which is a true story that Comcast is apparently, you know, shopping, MSNBC. - Absolutely. - So, but there's a difference between ratings and revenue, so their ratings are down, and their ratings, even when they're good, are still not beating Fox. - They make money there. - But I was gonna say, with all the revenue with Big Pharma, and these big corporations, why would they spin it off and sell it if they're making good money on the product? - Because it's too much, I think that they, I think it would actually help MSNBC to get rid of the NBC moniker, to be honest with you. - Right now, they're not gonna get rid of the NBC stream, NBC News. It's just the fringy cable stuff. They wanna have us, they're divorcing them. They're dumping them. - So they're separating NBC News from MSNBC. - Oh yeah. - Okay, yeah. - That's what they should, I mean, it's oxygen. - Yeah, kind of the same thing, aren't they? - And I think in part of it, they don't wanna deal with the drama of it, the lawsuits, they don't wanna deal with it. It's just, 'cause they have to deal with all of the drama, they have to deal with all the fallout, and I think they just don't wanna deal with it. - Why don't you just, I really just think it's just-- - Why don't you just be a centrist, why don't you just be a centrist news channel, right? Call it down in the middle, call balls and strikes. You know, rip the left, rip the right, praise the right, praise the left, when somebody gets something right, get it right, you talk about it, when somebody's full of crap, call them out. It seems to me, with this past election, granted it went in favor of Trump, but America is looking for just common sense solutions. You would think there's a demand for that in news television, no? - I think that the straight network shows, they still have a cash cow in that, but I think that for any of the cable, I think even CNBC is in trouble, but MSNBC for sure, and the Oprah oxygen network, they are looking to dump them. No question in my mind. - The counting is going on right now, right, to the recounting, okay, for Bob Casey and Dave McCormick. John Federman was on with Jake Tapper over the weekend. I'm starting with Cut 8 here, Phil, where he discussed the counting of the Senate ballots, recounting of the Senate ballots, play Cut 8, Phil. - Your colleague, Senator Bob Casey, who was up for reelection, there's a Commonwealth mandated recount going on right now, 'cause it was so close. He's trailing by 18,000 votes behind Dave McCormick. Democratic officials in at least one key county, Bucks County voted to count about 115 provisional ballots that are missing a signature, despite the Pennsylvania Supreme Court previously ruling that those are invalid. I want you to take a listen to how one Democratic Bucks County commissioner justified her actions. - Hope we all know that precedent by a court doesn't matter anymore in this country, and people violate laws any time they want. So for me, if I violate this law, it's because I want a court to pay attention to it. - So the Washington Post editorial board called that, quote, "corrosive to democracy," unquote, and said, quote, "County officials do not get to decide "whether a legal requirement is material "and must be followed, courts do, "and they have spoken clearly," unquote. What's your take, what's your response to that Democratic official deliberately announcing that they're gonna defy court orders and count these provisional ballots? - Well, again, I'm not gonna chase every kinds of quotes, things like that, because I think you just pointed out that it refers to about 115 ballots, and that's not gonna have an impact on this race at this point. So what's where we are now? It's very, very close, and I guarantee you, if Dave McCormick were in the opposite situation where he was down 15 to 17,000 votes, he would absolutely wanna have every last vote counted as well too. And Bob Casey has never claimed fraud, and I think it's really interesting now all of the Republicans and the conservative people on Twitter aren't talking about, oh, they're cheating, they're having all kinds of a thing after Trump won. No one's claiming that there's any kinds of actual cheating on our side, calling and counting every vote, and that's where we're at, and that's the law. And when it's finished, and if Bob Casey comes up short, I can almost guarantee that he's going to do the right thing and concede, so that's the thing. But my point, no one's making an argument that there's any kinds of cheating or a thing on our side. It's like, hey, let's, we're going to count every last vote. - So a lot to unpack there, I'll start with this. We're gonna get into Federman a little bit deeper at nine o'clock if we have time this morning because Federman says that the Democrats need to stop freaking out over everything. Trump does, Politico's got a story out whether or not the Democrat party should be listening to Federman. I can't believe it, but it's like Federman, if he ever has a moment behind closed doors, he's gotta be exhausted. I mean, that guy is doing clean up for his party constantly. He's always on these different media outlets. I'm glad that they brought up that Washington Post column from Saturday because that was what I referenced earlier in the show. Although I think Federman misunderstood Tapper there. I think Tapper said they're looking at 115,000 ballots. Federman said 15 to 17,000. So somebody's off by 100,000 votes here or ballots, so I'm not sure what the actual number is. Well, one Tapper referring to the total, if you looked at all the provisionals and everything, and I think Federman was looking at the number that he needed to get, and that's just it, that if you, by all accounts, Democrats and Republicans are saying there's no way, if you look at the votes and the way this is going, that Casey Jr. is going to make up that amount of votes to then beat Dave McCormick. But the issue at hand I feel is that my understanding of this by all accounts is that the reason that these Democrat commissioners in various color counties and including here in Philadelphia, the very reason that they began to knowingly count illegal ballots was to beef up those numbers, because remember I kept reporting all week, that this is the number, 'cause I was watching that margin. Very carefully, as everybody was watching it, to see at what point would that recount legally get triggered? So they needed some votes, they needed to find something to trigger that. So this is what the appearance of it is, if they went in there and they said, we're gonna count these votes that we know are illegal at the end of the day, we'll be thrown out by the Supreme Court in Pennsylvania, and there are hearings, as I've reported earlier this morning, hearings at one o'clock today, there's another hearing tomorrow, hearings all over as far as the state level, as far as Philadelphia and the surrounding counties, so there's a lot of legal action by the RNC lawyers, but my understanding is they purposely counted illegal ballots, so that they knowing knew that that would punch up the number, become the number to then trigger a recount. - Right, that's correct. - And so is that a dirty trick? - Yes. - Is that an attempt to quote unquote do something illegal? I would argue that if a Supreme Court has said such action is illegal and you decide to do it anyway, you've done something illegal, right? - That's right, there's multiple layers of illegalities going on here. It's like you do this illegally to trigger this, and then you're trying to do this, which is illegal, and then you're ignoring law and precedent on top of it. I don't know what the end game is here, because we're gonna get to Thanksgiving or the 1st of December, and then what we realize that McCormick's still won? - No, no, no, the deadline is by noon, this recount that's underway, well, no, it must, every county in Pennsylvania must have begun their recount by this Wednesday at noon. - But it could take up until the 28th, you said, right? - No, it has to be done. The counting must be done by noon on the 26th. They must announce by noon of the 27th. I'd be looking at it next week. - I think one of the issues, too, is that Bucks County official, they're Margolis or whatever her name is. Basically, he said that she knows it's illegal, but they're gonna do it anyway. - I know. - I mean, that's what I wanted to do. - I'm gonna break the law if I want to. - Next Wednesday, by the way, so it'd be the day before Thanksgiving. - Yeah, a better person also said that-- - A better person. - Yeah, that's a zeolism. Also said that Musk helped move the needle for Trump at Pennsylvania. This is cut 20, Phil Go. You know, random kinds of appointments. - Just before the election, you predicted on this show that the results would be close, but that Kamala Harris and the Democrats would ultimately carry Pennsylvania. That obviously did not happen. You won in Pennsylvania by appealing to not only people in the urban centers, like Philly or Pittsburgh, but appealing to blue collar workers in red counties who voted for Trump this time around. Is the Democratic Party still the party of the working class? - Well, of course, but I described the situation. And now I've already claimed that it's gonna be incredibly close. And I've also claimed that Trump is the strongest that he's been in the three cycles there. And now things that were really unique that happened, the assassination attempt, that wasn't Butler. That's 45 minutes from where we're sitting right now. And then Musk is not just a typical kind of a surrogate. We're all in that business. We have surrogates, we have endorsements. And many of them often don't really matter much. But now Musk made himself really effective. And EU has described as moving to Pennsylvania. And I do believe that helped move the needle in that too. So Trump came in in the strongest position and he carried Pennsylvania and carried all of the swing states. So that's what reflected that. He came in in a strong position that there's gonna be a lot of hot takes. There were a lot of hot takes before this election. But it's undeniable here we are now because of a lot of the decisions that were made before the election. - You're caught. So I'm gonna give you a hot take, Mr. Fetterman. And maybe Mr. Fetterman will like hearing this. But we've talked about part of your realignment. How Republicans are now the working class, common folk, middle America. The Democrats are the fringe, progressive, Harvard, Ivy League, coastal elitists. Let me just say this right now. I'm gonna go on record. And I'm not calling this that it will happen. But there will be strong consideration and many conversations. I do not believe Gavin Newsom will be the future of the Democrat party. Coastal elitist has failed in California. Josh Shapiro, even though some say more of a moderate from a policy standpoint, Josh Shapiro still gives off kind of, in my opinion, swarmy elitist vibes. Not like Gavin Newsom feels like a used car salesman skunk. But Shapiro to a lesser degree, there will be strong talk about making Fetterman the face of the Democrat party because they believe Jon Fetterman with the look, the Braddock PA thing. I'm telling you, I really do believe they will consider it and they will pontificate behind closed doors. Does, they'll have to ask themselves this question and they'll have to answer it. Does Jon Fetterman give the Democrat party the best chance to win in 2028? And there might be an argument for that. - There's a lot of talk over the weekend. A lot of articles being written about RFK Jr. And his crusade, as the New York Times put it on Saturday, his crusade against big food, quote, could alienate Republican allies is what the headline was in the New York times over the weekend. I just want to, because there's a lot of, there's a lot of discussions about this and I want to get into what Belmar said, also the ingredient labels. You know, like what, you know, there's big discussions about fruit loops, right? And the fruit loops ingredients in Canada as opposed to what's happening in the United States. So the New York Times on Saturday has this huge article about RFK Jr. And I just want to point something out to you that I think is hysterical. It says Mr. Kennedy has singled out fruit loops as an example of a product with too many artificial ingredients, questioning why the Canadian version has fewer than the U.S. version. But he was wrong, okay? That's what it says in the New York Times. He was wrong. The ingredients lists are roughly the same, although Canada has natural colorings made from blueberries and carrots, while the U.S. product contains red dye, red dye 40, yellow number five and blue one. - Which ones are different? - As well as butt-lated hydroxychloroquine BHT, a lab-made chemical that is used for freshness according to the ingredient label. So they went out of their way to make a correction and say, well, the ingredient list was such the same, except there's formaldehyde and all of this in the U.S. It is unbelievable. - That's all they do. - It's unbelievable. - That is all they do. The bottom line is you can slice it and dice it anyway, which way you want it. These other nations are living healthier 'cause they have less crap in their food. I don't care if, I think Kennedy said something last week, it's like fruit loops has 19 ingredients in Canada and fruit loops has three. I don't care if it's three to 19 or 10 to 11, but Dawn just said, yeah, it's got a bunch of crap in it. It doesn't matter. - This is cut 14, Phil, if you can grab this. Europe has the same food products as the U.S., we know that. But the ingredients are dramatically different. Dramatically different. And here's them talking about this. This is cut 14. - This is McDonald's french fries. I would like to argue that probably nobody in this room has not had a McDonald's french fries, by the way. Nobody raised their hand during the staff meeting earlier today. In the U.S., there's 11 ingredients. In the U.K., there's three. And salt is optional. An ingredient called Dometho Polysiloxane is an ingredient preserved with formaldehyde, a neurotoxin in the U.S. version. - Oh my gosh. - This is used as a foaming agent so they don't have to replace the oil that often. Makey McDonald's more money here in the United States. But they don't do that across the pond. Here we go. This is Skittles. Notice the long list of ingredient differences. - Look at that. - 10 artificial dyes in the U.S. version and titanium dioxide. This ingredient is banned in Europe because it can cause DNA damage. Artificial dyes are made from petroleum and products containing these dyes require a warning label in Europe that states it may cause adverse and effects on activity and detention in children. And they have been linked to cancer and disruptions in the immune system. - This on the screen back here is Gatorade. In the U.S., they use red 40 and caramel color. In Germany, they don't. They use carrot and sweet potatoes to color their Gatorade. (laughing) This is Doritos. The U.S. version has three different artificial dyes and MSG. The U.K. version does not. And let's look at cereal. General Mills is definitely playing some tricks on us. They launched a new version of tricks just recently in Australia. It has no dyes. They even advertise that when the U.S. version still does. This is why I became a food activist. My name is Vani Hari. And I only want one thing. - What about that? - I want American. - Vani Hari. - Sounds like me after my husband goes to like a wholesale club and brings all that crud home. And I'm like reading from it. - Yep. - She just said everything I've felt. - I guess Bobby Kennedy's not as crazy as everybody says. - I'm telling you guys that this is, I'm glad we're having this discussion. And I'm glad we're bringing this to the forefront. And it's something that absolutely needs to be discussed because they actually tried to do this like 20 years ago, 15 years ago, and the food lobby pushed back because Froot Loops, I'm just using them as an example, but Froot Loops weren't as bright as bright a color. So our kids didn't like them as much because they weren't as bright out of a color. So, you know, we've tried this before to no avail. So I'm just saying that it is, I'm glad that this conversation is, and like that article I just read in the New York Times, they're doing their damn best to discredit everything that is. And it's just like, well, the ingredients, it's roughly the same except they're really, really different. - How about McDonald's there using that ingredient that will kill you so that they can get more bang for their buck out of their frying oil? - Yeah. - That's just remarkable. - Bill Maher, over the weekend, talked to Casey Means and MD who's a big proponent of RFK Jr. and this whole food, you know, make America healthy again thing, says that he's willing to give RFK Jr. a chance. This is cut, I think I have this, right? Yeah, this is cut seven, Phil, go. - RFK, you and I do have something in common, which is like for a long time, we've all been saying, well, the system as it is, the way we do health is already very (beep) so maybe he'll make it worse, but like my head is not exploding about it. And so I saw you do this where I got familiar with this video you did where you said you would, you graduated Stanford Medical? - Yes. - And the video was called like something like I learned nothing there about what was important. Tell us what you didn't learn there that you think we should, you should be taught at least in medical school. - Right, it's astonishing. It's not an overstatement to say that in my four years of Stanford undergrad, four years of Stanford Medical School and four and a half years of surgical training, I did not learn a single thing about what is really making Americans sick. The true root causes of the chronic disease epidemic that's devastating and torturing American lives. The things like the impact of ultra processed food on our health, the incredible 80,000 synthetic toxins that are food, water, air, our personal care products, the fact that there has been six billion tons of plastic produced since 1907 that have entered our food, our water, even our air. The fact that six billion pounds of synthetic pesticides are sprayed on our global food supply every year. The average child in America is spending less time outdoors than a maximum security prisoner and yet sunlight actually dictates a huge portion of our biology. So these monifiable aspects of holistic living that directly impact our cellular health are just not being talked about. We're really focused on silos in the American healthcare system. We have over 100 medical and surgical subspecialties. And what happens is we miss the forest for the trees of the root causes of what's making Americans sick. And I think what happened on election day this year is that Americans came out and said, we want to bend the curve of the chronic disease epidemic that is destroying American potential. And I think RFK represents someone who's willing to take that on. (audience applauding) - Perfectly well said. And sunlight is the ultimate disinfectant. It's why in the spring and the summer I play golf constantly 'cause I want to be outside. I hate sitting inside and getting ready to blow my brains out because I'm bored. By the way, 448 yesterday is dark. I was ready to off myself, it's just depressing. And I mentioned in the big take this morning, the Babylon B, fattest, sickest country on earth, concerned that new health secretary might do something different. So that's what I would say to all of these people out there that are anti-RFK junior. I don't care if you don't agree with him on vaccine, he's not right about everything. But on food, he's absolutely accurate. And if you're a miserable overweight schlub, you should probably listen to him because what you're consuming is leading the cardiovascular disease, is leading the diabetes, is losing to, is resulting in cancer. And yet you want to just do, well, okay, trust him, he ate pork and ended up with a tapeworm. Shut up. Yeah, and to all of those people who are, you know, the same ones in the 2010s, where like, keep your hands off my fries and everything like that, like, that's all good and well. And I'm one of the first ones to say, it's all personal responsibility. If you don't like it, don't eat it, which I still believe. But when it's literally in every single piece of your food, something needs to be done. You know what I mean? Like, there's only, you could only eat clean so much. I mean, even, you know, you sit there, Nick, and you eat those blueberries out of the thing. I love blueberries too. Do you know what they're sprayed with? That's what I'm, that's what I'm talking about. You know what I mean? Even, even that don't. I can't afford organic right now. So it's, it's, so. Go to Aldi. To sit here and say and all the, you know, all the. Come on. It's my freedom. It's my this is my that yeah. Yeah, but we, we, we also need to know what is in these, these things, or what they're sprayed with or any of that stuff. We do. So just to go back to the McDonald's thing for a moment, because I'm caught up in McDonald's for a moment. He said, one of those clips was salt is optional on the fries over in, in Europe. They don't salt them like they, like Trump, like when Trump was Buck's County, he unleashed the entire salt shaker on him. By the way, you have to have salt on fries. Does anybody out there in this audience actually eat french fries without salt? Oh no, I, I, oh, get the, get the DeSantis clip. I don't, I don't put salt on it. I put mustard on it. Wait, wait, wait, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. Now we know. Mustard. Yeah. You put mustard on your french fries. 100%. That's, that's my seasoning for french fries or, or like a little bit of vinegar. Oh, I love vinegar. Yeah. Yeah. Like the boardwalk. No salt. No salt. No salt. No ketchup though. Oh, ketchup is gross. Okay. No ranch. Ketchup when you're seven, I agree ketchup is a kick con exactly I tell my wife that every day. Yeah. Um, no, no, I put, I put mustard on my french fries or vinegar. My wife is mixed ketchup and mayonnaise together with her fries ketchup and mayonnaise. I could do mustard and mayonnaise, but not ketchup. Mustard when you're fried. Yeah. Well, you got any other odd habits while we're at it. What's wrong with that? Mustard. I've never tried it. I'm not. I'll try anything. Yeah. I'll give it a whirl today. At least once. At least once. That's right. Uh, Alec Baldwin debuted his RFK junior impression on SNL. Oh, this is where his fly, he didn't zip up his fly. No, he came out at the end of, uh, he came out at the end for, you know, the closing credits when they say good night to everybody and his fly was down. Oh, good night everybody. Uh, but he comes out and does his RFK junior. This is, this is along with the Trump impersonator and Dana Carvey as Joe Biden. The, uh, the cold open was them meeting in the Oval Office in front of the fireplace. Uh, you can roll a little bit of it until we get flagged. I just wanted to tell you again, I'm so honored to be the head of the health and human services. He's just got a good. No. He's not. I mean, he kind of looks the part there, but oh my God, is that awful? Dude, you do a better Kennedy. Thank you. Can you, can you do it? No, I'm, I'm going to play the best Kennedy, the personation out there, uh, first, but what, um, no, is he, I mean, I thought that, that they're not supposed to make fun of anybody. It has any kind of a difference or voice disability or whatever. Spasmodic dysfunction. Right. So is he making fun of somebody? I don't subscribe to that. I make fun of everybody. I know Greg, but I'm talking about you all right, yeah, yeah, yeah, uh, play it all. Play a little bit more. Someone that teach them how to be healthy, someone like me, a seven year old man with movie star looks and a worm in his brain. I love you. I can't wait to see what you do with this country in terms of health and with regard to it. And it's terrible. The Trump impersonation, isn't there either. No. The other thing that's any good in there is Carvey doing Biden speaking of Carvey. This was the fly on the wall podcast, which by the way, is it an Odyssey podcast? You can get it up. You can get it wherever you get your podcast, but get it from Odyssey, uh, from the Odyssey app. It's Dana Carvey and David Spade, uh, talking the politics, interviewing people, talking all kinds of stuff, actually, not just politics, um, but they were talking about RFK, uh, Junior and Dana Carvey broke, broke out his impression and I think it's the best I've heard. Uh, all right, bro, they're closing my favorite windies. I don't know if they're closing it, but they put the green fence and you don't want a green fence around. That means two years of trucks, beep, beep, bulldozers, cement trucks, blocking, stop, auto. Go away. Ooh, ooh. Ooh. Well, if Bobby Kennedy has his way, there's going to be a lot of stuff about fast food. What if he's the guy there with a hard hat going, we're starting right here. Well, I'll have a double windies with cheese and a milkshake. No, no, it's me now. You're not getting. I had like a single cheese and a booster shot. I don't think you should be having this food, I think, quite frankly, it's poison. So I'm here by shutting down windies and get the fuck out of here, David Spade. We should have him come on a team is about nutrition. You can get a sweet potato or like a buck 50 sleep, potatoes, sweet potatoes, scar face. What are you going to do, man? You like it? You don't get me no fucking sweet potato. It's good. It's good. He's so good. That is a great Bobby Kennedy impersonation, which by the way, it's probably ill advised to try to imitate him because you could end up having major voice issues once you go into that mode. Yeah. Yeah. Let's keep going down the realm of comedy, the highway of comedy, Jim Brewer released his new special over the weekend. We're going to get him back on the show. Yeah, I was thinking about that. They only seem to want to come on when he's promoting club dates around this area. I guess he hasn't been around this area in a while. So he went off on the election propaganda cut for Phil. The other side's got Eminem. You're on Diddy's list, you know that, right? And he's like, "I'm going to go to the show.", and he's like, "I'm going to go to the show. I'm going to go to the show." And he's like, "I'm going to go to the show.", and he's like, "I'm going to go to the show. I'm going to go to the show." And he's like, "I'm going to go to the show." And he's like, "I'm going to go to the show." Like, I didn't see any of the videos that the rally's going, everybody would slay them. We need everybody's name, who ends with Stein and Berg to come to the floor and fill it. Your life is over, but in the house, release the dogs. We told you they were nasty! You people lost your minds over that. Man. He didn't hold back, did he? No, he didn't. Tell us what's your really thing, Jimbo. Over the weekend, we talked about it a little bit in the six o'clock hour to open the show this morning. UFC 309 live from Madison Square Garden. Johnny Bones Jones had a third round TKO against Steep. Steepay McCochich. Yeah, good luck with that one. He announces retirement at the end of that, by the way, because... I mean, going up against John Jones is just... I mean, he's the greatest UFC fighter in history. Is John Jones still in his prime? Well, I mean, he's been out for about 18 months, because he had surgery and everything like that. But he's won the most championship fight, so... Yeah. He, after he won... Well, actually, let's start with Cut 11. This was Trump, Elon Musk, R.K. Jr., Tulsi Gabbard and Dana White entering the... Entering the arena at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night, Cut 11, Fogo. And ladies and gentlemen, look through us now, making his way to the World Bank. Look at Megan White. Yeah, I mean, Mike, who doesn't belong in that house? I was just going to say that. There you go, we're doing UFC fight. At least we know that Trump enjoys this stuff. Tulsi Gabbard was there. R.K. Jr., you know he doesn't care about the UFC stuff. I don't know about that. He's a fitness guy, right? Bobby's all jacked up, he likes lifting weights. I could see Bobby Kennedy being into combat sports. He was just sports. He was at a place that weasel Mike Johnson. Oh, well, yeah, Mike Johnson's at a place every time. He looked at a place on Trump Force One with the McDonalds. By the way, that's the front page of the New York Post. Bobby Kennedy, we're in front of a thing of McDonalds. Isn't that amazing? Because I do. Do we have that photo? We do. Well, no, I don't think we do. We don't have that photo. Oh, yeah. Yeah, we do. What's up there? Oh, is it up there right now? Yeah, there it is. Yeah. So, who do you think is more uncomfortable right there? Maga, Mike, or Bobby? And you know they gave him that just to stick him. You know, Bobby's not going to eat that. No, he's in that way. That's his total photo op. He's not going to eat that. He has a Coke next to him. Not going to drink that. Trump's probably like, I'll take that. Give me whatever you don't want. Yeah. It's like ordering for your kids something you know they're not going to eat just so you can eat more. Yeah. Well, I don't want to. I don't know, guys. He has the burger out. He's been a good sport. Yeah. Yeah. Elon's got a bunch of dipping sauces. We're going to have to worry about that. Why is our kid, Junior, so tan? Like. He uses the same spray bottle as Trump. Or tanning bed. Or tanning bed. God. By the way, you think Maga, Mike, and Bobby went down towards the other end of the plane and I'm like tofu and sushi. Put like their napkin inside their shirt. Cut 13, Phil. So when he gets into the arena and they go over to their seats, he hugs Joe Rogan. Oh, he didn't just hug him. He had sex with Joe. This was awkward. Who's doing a commentary, Phil, if you want to roll that. Show him a roll. Congratulations, Joe. Come a little closer, Joe. I'm going to kiss you. Whispering in his ear. Yep. I'm sure he thanked him for the endorsement. Yeah. And another. There you go. The ultimate glory of all of this is the fact that UFC airs on ESPN+, and ESPN is a very left-wing Disney anti-Trump company. So to see all of that and then obviously the John Bowell stuff. Well, let me just say this because I know you're not a UFC guy. You have to have ESPN+, to order it on pay-per-view. Oh. So you pay a monthly subscription. It's the biggest scam out there and I fall right into it because I do love UFC and watch the Saturday night. I can't watch it Sunday morning. I fell asleep during Saturday night's game. I will say. Yeah. I did. Um, they make you pay, I don't know what ESPN+, it's like $7 a month, but you need that subscription to order the fight for like 70 bucks or whatever it is. So you get, it's like a double tax. A hundred percent. It's a hundred percent. It's a scam. I fall right. We have it because we have Disney+, so Disney+ when you sign up for it, you get ESPN+ with it. So that's as big of a scam as these PSL's at stadiums. Where in order to get season tickets, you got to buy the personal seat license first. A hundred percent. Yes. Don't raise it. That's exactly what they do. But I do it. I do it. I can't. I'm a giant hypocrite. And what was the fight cost? It was 70 bucks. Plus tax. 65 maybe. Okay. I should know this. Yeah. I should know too. Don't like that. We should know this. We bought them, but I don't, I really honestly don't know. It makes the Tyson fight worth it then because I was surprised that you didn't have to pay extra on top of your Netflix subscription for that. It's true. It's true. But never should you have to. They're smart. Netflix is smart doing this by the way. They should, UFC should get into this, should get into this game. If they were smart, they would. Netflix better get their act together because the NFL and WWE are coming. And if they can't hold 60 million people without a good signal, they're in trouble. You're a hundred percent right. You're a lot of angry Americans. So John Jones with the third round TKO after he won the fight, he gives Trump, actually, let's start with him giving Trump the belt. Did you guys see this? This has got 12. This has got 12. Go. It is all about John Jones. He walks over and gives him the belt. Trump loves it. He all hundred percent. He loves it. And by the way, for anybody who thinks that like Trump so Johnny come lately at this if you followed him in the 80s and 90s, he was at every Tyson fight, he was at every WrestleMania. He's way into the stuff. John Jones gave him a shout out when he won with the interview with Joe Rogan at the end of the fight. Cut five. Do you have a there? Cut five. Go. I also want to say a big, big thank you to President Donald Trump for being here tonight. This is where he does the, uh, this is where he does the dance to. You know, I said that, um, you're talking about the popularity of Trump and you know, winning the popular vote, even though I didn't make an official prediction on who would win the election. I did say that Trump was going to exceed his total vote of 74 million from 2020. And I think Don might have mentioned it earlier. What is it? 77 78 million now and counting and growing nearly 77 million. Yeah. So, uh, well on Friday night, the, uh, Mike Tyson, Jake Paul fight happened. It went eight rounds and, uh, Jake Paul won, I mean, after like the second round, it wasn't even really close, uh, Mike Tyson on why he did this. Well, we know it's, it's for the payday, but this is, this is what he said afterwards. Cut 15. Uh, yeah. I forgot 15 there. So go, you know, 58, a lot of people thought you shouldn't be here. A lot of people thought you'd be done and dusted in the first round. Do you feel like you proved the world wrong that you could at least go eight rounds with a younger man? I didn't feel nothing to anybody. Don't need to myself, but I'm not one of those guys that look to keep the world. I'm just happy what I can do. And I was wearing assless chaps in the locker room and I was walking around half naked. I was so much from the Catskills. I don't know if you guys saw this, but he was, he, he kept biting his glove, uh, during, during the fight. Yeah. What is that about? Yeah. That's exactly what he said. This is cut 16. Yeah. Watch all of it. I know you did. Was it a mouthpiece issue or were you just biting on your gloves? What was that? Could you tell us? I haven't had to invite you in my glove. I fight. Yes. Why do you do that? Um, I have a biting fixation. Mm hmm. I've heard about that. Holyfield knows. No more. Stay right here. Mike. If you can. Jake. Um, then Jake Paul at the end gave props to the goat Mike Tyson, uh, cut 17. There's a foremost Mike Tyson in such honors, let's give it up for Mike, bro. This is, he's a legend. He's the greatest to ever do it. He's the goat. I look up to him. I'm inspired by him and we wouldn't be here today without him. This man is an icon and it's just an honor to be able to fight him. And he's obviously the toughest, baddest man on the planet. So it was, it was really tough like, like I expected it to be. It's fascinating how people get some celebrity status notoriety and success in this country when it seems like nobody likes them at all. Yeah. Like the Pauls are the perfect illustration of that, both Jake Paul and Logan Paul, massively successful kind of social media, meets sports, meets influencer, yet everywhere they go, they're booed relentlessly. It's true. It's weird. It's true. Uh, the fight itself, look, I, you know, I, I can say this. I, I got every Tyson pay-per-view from the mid 90s to the early 2000s. I was a, I was a Tyson aficionado for much of my late teens and early 20s years. A 58 year old, of course, is not going to be able to keep up with, uh, you know, somebody like Jake Paul, who is half his age. Um, so technically it wasn't the best fight in the world. Uh, just play. Yeah. Just play a little bit of it there. Thanks Kevin McBride, just ask Francois Bonzo, Amanda Holyfield, you get the gist. Yeah. I mean, Tyson, Texas, like, yeah, he, he held his own, mm-hmm, he was, he was more on defense than he loves an offense, you know what I mean, like, it looks like he was just trying to outlast. Mm-hmm. Paul. And everybody was saying, Oh, right, right, right, right, right, right, right hand by Paul. That is his most effective part, again, he is knocked down or knocked out every opponent he has faced. There you go. I, I just found it for, because I bet the fight and I bet on, I bet on Jake Paul. Of course. Yeah. He was still two to one favorite and all these people are like, Oh yeah, Tyson, if he, if he lands, I'm like, he hasn't landed a knockout shot in 25 years. I know. Like, it's, it, he was cooked in O two. It's the first, they said it when he won the first round, it was the first, first round he had won in like 25 years. Yes. Yes. I mean, in 2002, I was graduating high school. And me and my buddies, we bought the fight, Tyson against Linux Lewis. Oh yeah. And that was real. I mean, he was done before that fight, but that was truly the signifying moment that it was over for him. And all these people were like, Oh, I'm betting on Tyson. I'm betting on Tyson. And I'm like, talk about, talk about the pay per views. I mean, if you're, if you guys remember, I used to have to beg, beg my mom. And then there was, then you could actually go to some bars, some bars used to, you know, they had a hotbox. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Remember the hotbox? But they were, I mean, that was the original, you know, 39, 99 or whatever it was for, for the Tyson vice. I remember that Tyson, I think it was spinks. It was, it was like, it was like 70 bucks or something like that. And it lasted, it lasted 90 seconds. Yeah. Yeah. If you're a 90s kid, you lived off the hotbox. Yeah. I think boxing, wrestling, and late night naughty shows. I got it. The hotbox was it, man. By the way, I got to say this, I think that the majority of, you know, the Netflix thing on Friday night was guys are age that just wanted to really live our youth and be like, it's a Tyson fight just just like back in the day, but it was, you know, it's something cool to have that 60 million people kind of all watch at the same time. We have so few of those things anymore that it's nice to have. We're a nostalgic society. We love the glory days, whatever your glory days was, right? Yeah. Like 90s, 80s, 70s, 60s, whatever, whatever resonates with you from like your childhood, right? And oh, by the way, too, you know, here's the other thing. My other beef with this, especially for a fight that is an exhibition with one guy approaching 60. Can we start the actual Tyson fight by like 930? Do we need them walking out at midnight? I was just going to say that. What time did it because in full disclosure, I watched it Saturday morning. Yeah, I did because we had such a busy day, right? It didn't go on until like, I mean, it was like till midnight or something. It was after 12 o'clock when they got in the ring. Yeah. Well, you said you were, you didn't have buffering issues. I was smooth as can be. Everybody's crying on X about it. I'm like, mine's good, like I'm good here. And then all of a sudden I pull up my phone. I'm starting to get tired and I see the Netflix official Twitter feed, tweeting out the results to the fight. And I'm like, they haven't come on on my screen, but my TV's not buffering. It's amazing. I thought I was in like the Twilight Zone. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Do you ever want about who was watching? I would love to see, you know, who was watching because I just think, think about all of us talking about it. I mean, I was watching, my whole family was watching, you know what I mean? I would guess mostly Gen X and younger. I don't know. Because I would just be curious across the board because Trump announced we knew earlier on the day Saturday he was going to show. Yeah. I wonder, did that influence people to watch the thing? I don't think boomers watched it because they're asleep at that point. Well, no, I disagree. I think that it was, you think people in their 60s and 70s, maybe not, but I think my generation to, you know, your generation, I think we, like, yes. And by the way, having Jake Paul in it made it, made it more acceptable for the younger generation. Well, yeah. That's why I think in Gen X, Melania was Gen Ziers. It was actually a brilliant strategy because you take, you know, 1975 to, you know, 2000 and whatever, and you have all of those, you know, years in there of people who wanted to relive their glory days, their youth and the new, you know, the new kids. I mean, they're saying that 65 million people watch, 65 million. So I think I would love to see the breakdown on that as far as, you know, the age, I mean, like teenage guys and college guys were all watching. They had to, they need to, and Nick said this earlier, and you're 100% right, they need to perfect this if they're going to do the WWE stuff in 2025, if they're going to start doing this for NFL games, I think UFC needs to take a page out of their book and do, you know, now that the WWE has made a deal with Netflix, you know, that's the same parent company, TKO, I think, I think UFC should, should get in that, which is really remarkable as, as hot of a product as UFC is, the best they can do is ESPN plus streaming. Yeah. Seems low budget, doesn't it? It does. It does. How many live events, so that way back in the day, like my dad will talk about this, television shows or television news, that was considered a live event that you would watch. Nobody does that anymore. This is one of the few global events. This was global, but certainly nationally where you have a live event that people have to tune in. Yep. By the way, if you bought UFC or Netflix stocks back in the day, I know, and held on to them. Yeah, you're, you're a wealthy one. All right, we should, we should, we should bring you here. Come back. We'll get a big three from Dawn at some point, our Morning Mystery movie clip, all the goodies coming up in the nine o'clock hour, as well as we've got to get to the Whoopi Goldberg story that is out there. And also John Federman in the news with some advice for his own party. It's Kale and Company live here on a Monday morning on Talk Radio 1210WPHJ.

We've got our buddy Tom in Percussi and Tom is with us now on talk radio 1210. Hello Tom, Hey, good morning guys. Great show is always on this Monday, Greg Stocker, Suck, thank you, Tom. I just want to let you know these counting, recounting of the ballots are awesome, but they'd probably be more awesome if they counted them all. I still have a provision about that has not been counted. It's unbelievable. No. Now let me ask you how are you tracking the status of your ballot? Okay. So you know how you guys say I had to have the receipts? Well, I have the receipt too, and it has a number. So when I went to my polling booth, I moved in my mail in ballot and I voted in person. I then threw out my ballot, folded it up, put it in the green envelope, then put it in one of these super secret envelopes with a receipt with the number on it. And it has a web address, it's called H-A-D-A dot P-A dot U-S, and you go in there and you put plug in the number, and it says that my ballot has not been received. Wow. Then there's also spot on there where you can put your name and address your name and date of birth. I plugged that in and it said the same thing. So it says not processed, or does it say like still pending, or like what's the specific verbiage that it gives you? It says not processed, and it says check in three to seven working base. Okay. So here's what it says. A certified provisional ballot was not found. Please wait three to seven days after the election and search again. If you have questions, please contact your county election office. Good luck with that. You're a listed county context and it gives it there, but it's, yeah, it's, it's, it's moveable. You know, I almost feel like myself, right to being violated, I need to sue for millions of dollars. You need the cotton. You need the cotton in here. Tom, you know, you really should do in all honesty is contact Linda Kerns. Yeah. I will text you right now. Yeah. So you can go to protect the vote.com or PA dot protect the vote.com Tom and put in there your information, but I will text. I know Linda's preparing for court, but she's really great about well, she was listening. Obviously it's six a.m. She's ordered six a.m. We started six a.m. Yes, she always listens and she does, she's one of the attorneys who sends us the updates, which we truly appreciate, but Tom, just go to PA dot protect the vote.com or just protect the vote.com. And if you can go, there's a section where you can ask the question, but I will text her right now. It's just doesn't have to be this way, right? It is not a. And I don't want to go. We've done it a million times, but it's not a complicated process. We make this such a muddy, murky thing when it doesn't have to be that way. Yeah. It's like third world slap nut nations. I mean, come on. What are we doing here in this country? Anyway, eight o'clock hour brought to you by budget blinds. The holidays are coming. Don't we know it budget blinds is your one stop shop for blinds, shades, shutters, custom drapery and motorization visit budget blinds.com for a free in-home consultation and the only no questions asked warranty in the business schedule your holiday consultation today and ask about their special radio offer. Speaking of the holidays are coming either you guys have your Christmas decorations up yet. Nope. No. No. It was 65 degrees yesterday. I know. We didn't even have fall and we're just jumping into Christmas. We're going. So this Longwood Gardens, it's a weird year right because Thanksgiving is late. So we're all going to get caught into that. Yeah. Longwood Gardens opens. I think this Friday is their debut. We're going Saturday with a bunch of family, but it's true that nobody has their, you know, nobody's going to be ready. Because all of a sudden it's like, oh my goodness, it's Thanksgiving and then boom Christmas will be there. It's forgivable. Yeah. I'm looking around in neighborhoods and stuff like that, and I'm taking notes of the people that have their Christmas decorations up yet. Yeah. It's a little early. I didn't even get my turn. I didn't even get my free turkey yet from the grocery store. We need to, you need to at least wait until Thanksgiving weekend. Can we all agree on that? Oh, I know. A thousand percent. Yeah. Whatever it is. If it's late, if it's early, it doesn't matter. I don't know. I might, if it's nicer this weekend, I'm doing it this weekend because there are storms coming in. Oh. It's there. Oh, we're going to get rain. It's a week. Could be snuffed. Well, a concert. They don't like... It'll be a blizzard. No. The YouTube chat doesn't like my rules because I have a rules because I said that catch up this for seven-year-olds. Did it while it is. And I also said you shouldn't drink milk over the age of seven. And now I'm also saying that you shouldn't put your Christmas decorations up until Thanksgiving. I agree. Thanksgiving needs to be over before you have your Christmas decorations. I am typically first Saturday of December. You know, the second, the third. It's going to fly though. Huh? It's going to fly. It's going to fly by. Good. I want it to fly right to April. I think if you find a day that's weather-wise and with your schedule, then you've got to do it. You've got to do it. It sees the moment. Perpe diem. Friday or Saturday after Thanksgiving till January 1st, then we're done. That's it. Take all your freaking decorations down. Yeah. I typically take them down right after my birthday, January 3rd. What's the chat saying now? Nothing. It's right. You're trying people? Yeah. Is Justin in there crying? No. No. All right. Make sure you're checking this week. Justin, tell us what we're doing wrong. 855-839-1210. The phone number. Whoopi Goldberg with a whoops moment and it might come back to bite her in the keister. Uh-oh. Yeah. It's a big keister, by the way. Not by Mike Tyson. Yeah. That's right. Not by Mike Tyson. He bites ears and boxing gloves. But first, take a bite out of your holiday budget by getting a new vehicle because let's face it, right? He's about to get better again, Trump's in office. You're going to be able to afford that new vehicle. So why go anywhere else other than the Piazza Auto Group? And we're talking now about the 2025 Hyundai Tucson.

Thank you. Dapper out. I'm going to text him to the next break. Don't talk about my dance. Weekends are booked. The day I walk in and I find out my weekend's booked, but I put my foot down as the man of the house. Right. See how that works. Yeah. Alright. So yeah, exactly right. Don, I'm going to need a place to crash. How's that couch looking? Second of all, it looks like it's a fake tree, like it's like one of those things in the corner. Yeah, it's not even though. You assembled it in nine minutes. Yeah, you can put a fake tree up anytime. Oh, geez. I'm serious. It's like it's a total violation. Take that down. Take that down on your fire. I'm off the fake tree kick. It's authentic the rest of the way. I'm sure. I'm sure it's his wife, but, but you know, if she needs, you know, if she wants her husband to keep her job, his job, Dan Barrowski has checked in via text, he said, thank you for the defense, Don, happy wife, happy lineman. I mean, that second part's definitely true. Right. Right. Wise young man right there. Right. There's some good husband advice. Yeah. More proof that men need women more than women need men, I guess that whole seven o'clock hour just flush it out. Everything I said was BS. Yeah. EKZ is 100% right. And even though I know he's not a huge fan of mine, he says, I thought the fall season was from Halloween to Thanksgiving, Christmas was from Thanksgiving to January 5th. No. Well, winter doesn't even start until December 21st. All right. So we'll have technicalities. Yeah. It's fall until December 20th, by the way, if we're going to follow when the seasons change, right? It's December 21st to March 20th and then March 21st until June 21st. Nobody goes by that. I know. I'm such an old guy. All right. Let's get to Oprah. Speaking of old. Oprah. Oprah. It's soap on a rope. I remember that episode from Marywood Children in the Oprah store where Peggy buys everything. So apparently Oprah Winfrey. Now I didn't see this and this apparently happened on Wednesday's edition of the view where she said on that God awful show that we give way too much attention to begin with that there was accusations that she was denied service at a Staten Island bakery. Okay. Apparently this is Staten Island, New York on Friday. The Holterman family lined up outside of their 146 year old bakery alongside most of Staten Island's elected officials, both to clear the air and to send a message best summed up by borough president Vito Facela. He basically says you don't mess around with Staten Island. Let's play this. This is clip one because there's a lot of backlash after what Whoopi has apparently alleged. And then I saw yesterday on social media that there was some sort of video that Whoopi put out apologizing, but then I couldn't find it like two hours later. Wait, wait. So before we play this, so she claims on the view that she was denied service at this bakery because of her quote left leaning political view. So she went in there. Yes. Famous Whoopi Goldberg. In there and somebody was like, Nope, not here lady. We don't like your kind, correct. She went in there and she claims that they refuse to fulfill a batch order for Charlotte Rose. What is that? Like a cookie? A dessert? I don't know what Charlotte Rose. Dawn. I don't know. That sounds like a clothing line or something. I don't know what a Charlotte Rose is. Oh, it's a kind of pastry. It's a kind of pastry. Okay. She was standing in line. Okay. Everybody else. Does anybody buy this story? And good for them that the bakery releases a statement that says, you know, we, you know, we're very busy. People stand in line and basically this is because she wanted to be treated like a celebrity. Yes. She wanted to cut in line. And regardless of political views, if I was a owner of a bakery and somebody with the celebrity status of Whoopi Goldberg, whether I like her, whether I like her political views or not, I would want to get a picture with her, put it up on my wall. You know, Dolly Parton, Whoopi Goldberg, anybody big, anytime a big wig came to my establishment, what do you see in a lot of these little mom and pop places? They put up the picture, right? With the celebrity and they autograph it because they love yours. It's great for your bottom line business. Much like, much like Disney, you shouldn't alienate conservatives. If you are a conservative business owner, you should want the money of liberals because you're trying to make a profit. Here is Vito Facello in Staten Island saying don't mess with us. What's happening? Whoopi Goldberg causing problems for a bakery and now a Staten Island bureau president is speaking. Let's watch. And I think the bottom line here is after we're going to call up Jill who has had to endure something that she shouldn't have to endure. These people are up at three or four o'clock every morning. The sacrifices they've made, the holidays they've missed with their families to make Staten Island better and they have sacrificed for 145 years. Rutherford B. Hayes was the president of the United States for God's sakes. And they're still here and they're still strong and they're not going anywhere despite what other people on television have to say. And frankly, the people who defamed the Holtzmann family should apologize to the Holtzmann family for making stuff up to suit their needs. Not everybody wakes up every day and thinks about politics. A good business person doesn't care about anybody's politics. So with that, I like to call up Jill Holtzmann-Bowers. She deserves a 110% support. Jill, come on. I think that the whole community is rallying around that. It's a community that I have to tell you, I'm so overwhelmed by the support between finding out yesterday this even happened, getting phone calls and then people coming in, people from all over to supporting us in every way. We had phone calls yesterday from Alabama. Guys, I'm going to give you $50, send it to a school, send them donuts, send them cupcakes. The support has been so overwhelming. And I know how hard my family has worked to keep this business alive. And I wish my father was here today to see this. He would never believe it. My bakers come in two or three in the morning just to have donuts and rolls for everybody to come in and say, "We have the best rolls ever." And you know what? It took my whole family. It takes everybody, the community that comes every day to see us. We have this everyday conversation with everybody, how's the family, how's this? This is what makes Holtzmann's Holtzmann's. It's the community. It's my fellow, everything that come out and us giving back to the community that makes this go round. But if it wasn't for you and Staten Island to make this work, we still wouldn't be here today. Guys, so there's Jill. I think she sits next to Phil at the Jets games on Sunday. So as Vito said there, if you're a businessman, you don't wake up every single day thinking about politics and who enters your establishment and what their political view is. The only people that think like this are these left-wing maniacs that just can't quit thinking about Donald Trump and Republicans for some reason. It really is a mental disturbance, it's a mental illness and it's gotten to the point now. And again, I could have sworn, I could be wrong, I could have sworn I saw yesterday on social media, a video of Whoopi Goldberg apologizing for the claim and I just glossed over it and I went back like three hours later, I couldn't track it down. If it's out there, I'd like to play it. But Jonathan Turley is saying that there's a defamation suit here and this one is actually a piece of cake, no pun intended. And Turley writes that some have said that the fact that Goldberg did not name Holterman's bakery by name means that she cannot be sued. He says this is wrong. On the program last week, Goldberg portrayed herself as an early victim of the backlash against Trump critics. Goldberg stated ominously, quote, now I should tell you, Charlotte Ruse has no political leanings and the place that made these refused to make them for me. Turley goes on to write about this. You can read it on foxnews.com. But I mean, this is, this is a disaster for ABC. This is a disaster for Disney. You've got the woke Snow White, you've got Whoopi Goldberg and this is after the story last week where we talked about conflicting reports that the view might actually consider adding a pro-Trump voice to the show, which has been, it was weird. It was reported by the post and then Fox News said that's not true, but yet they're the same company. It doesn't look like she apologized. It looks like she went on and doubled down and doubled down. Oh, she doubled down. There seems to be a lot of talk about the dessert I requested for my birthday show. I never mentioned the name of the bakery or the location. I've seen a little eye that when we called a few weeks before my birthday, and we were told they couldn't process the order for my birthday because of an equipment failure. But somehow they were able to accept an order of a different 48 of the same dessert when somebody else called without using my name. Did you just decide to just see Smollett this whole, sorry, I don't know what that is. So they're saying she's Jesse Smolletting, wait, hang on. If she didn't mention the bakery by name, then there's no defamation sued. That's not according to what Jonathan Turley wrote for Fox. She claims she didn't mention the bakery by name. So she didn't mention the bakery name and people are just inferring that that's where they went to or or the bakery is coming out and saying that this is, you know, it was our bakery. She's talking about there's no defamation suit there. Because according to Turley, there is, so I mean, I don't know, I'll defer to the legal expert Turley. I mean, I don't know. I mean, they're all very difficult to win defamation, slander, libel. They are incredibly difficult to win because people always try to look for a cheap payday. But I just can't imagine that Whoopi Goldberg would be denied service of an order which I believe the bakery Holmermans is claiming that their boiler was not working properly and that they couldn't physically manufacture, not the right word, but bake or whatever it is to produce the quantity that she needed. But then she's claiming in that clip there that somebody else called and they accepted the order. Well, I would love to know what's the time gap. I mean, because let's be real, if you have an equipment malfunction, how long does it take to fix it? I don't know. It could be two days. It could be two minutes, right? You know, cameras for this show are working at 557 and 601 they go out. Things happen. And then they come back on a 603. So I don't know. It's a kind of the he said she said thing, which is why I think it would be very difficult to win this suit. But Turley says that you can in fact do a defamation suit without it being mentioned verbatim by name. But I guess she was showing they're saying that I guess she didn't name it but that they had some of the packaging. Well, Chris Eppolito says she didn't, she all you have to do is Google the pastry and it's like it's famous to them. Famous to them. It's Staten Island. But I guess there was something with the packaging. Did they show something visually or something? So I, you know, I'm not sure but that Charlotte Roost dessert with the Marciano cherries and whatnot. I think that there are very few bakeries because this is the oldest. It's like Germany brothers here like, you know, in the holidays and everybody in South Philadelphia. But tradition, you go, you stand in line and you know what I mean? It's a big thing. So I think that that's how they immediately could identify what we was talking about. Interesting. Okay. We'll see how it plays out eight, five, five, eight, three, nine, 12, 10. We'll come back. We'll get to our morning mystery movie clip, Dawn's big three, more of the cut sheet part do. And then I think we have, we have more of our veteran spotlights. We do. Correct? Yes. Yes. I mean, the outpouring of this has been incredible. So too. We, we spilled it into this week. So if you still have people you want to nominate for our World War Two greatest generation veteran spotlight, we're going to go to the middle of this week. But if anybody else has any other suggestions or anybody else they want to nominate, just email me or there's something on the website that you can submit 12, 10 W P H T dot com. Also, Nick, what we're promoting. Can I promote what we're doing on Wednesday? Yeah, of course. We haven't done that yet. All right. That's right. Kill and company fans. This Wednesday only Wednesday, Wednesday, Wednesday, 12, 10 a.m. Presetti, one and only Jimmy Matthew at the Philadelphia Art Museum stand. You'll get to witness the man who voted for Kamala wearing mega gear. Despite his erroneous voting, Jimmy is making good on his back. 830 a.m. this Wednesday, Wednesday, Wednesday at the foot of the Art Museum steps in Philadelphia, PA. You've seen him talk smack in YouTube chat. Now you get to watch him make good on his bet as he laments, drops 312 electoral votes. Can he do it? Find out Wednesday, Wednesday, Wednesday, it's right. This Wednesday, 830 Jimmy Matthews, one of our listeners, one of our YouTube chatters is going to pay off his bet because he bet that Kamala Harris would win or that Trump wouldn't win and he would run up the art museum steps in his boxer shorts. He's going to be carrying a kale and company 12, 10 W P H T flag. That's amazing. So I think everybody on the YouTube chat, if you can make it to the art museum steps, you've got to cheer him on. We have to have at least a couple of people down there to cheer him on. He's doing this. He's being a good sport. He didn't have to. No, I know we're going to have all the video footage for social, but are we going to cut in live to it? Of course. Of course. Of course. Yes. Yeah. It's going to be like this is an event. Okay. We'll have Captain Kirk down there with the video camera. Okay. I think Chris Forsyth is going to be down there with the video camera too. And yeah, we're going to do this live. So if you're watching on YouTube, you will be able to see it too. But I really encourage everybody to go down there and cheer him on because he's really being a good sport. I agree. And I would encourage Chris Forsyth to just lay off the sauce on Wednesday. No sauce. Road Warriors says, "Where can I park?" I don't know, man. That's up to you, buddy. The parking down there kind of does suck, but... There's a parking garage right there, a park at the parking garage or around the photo of a museum, art museum. Yeah. You heard the lady? Yeah. Very convenient. And then Stocker will expense it for you. No, no, Stocker won't say that. 855-839-1210, Morning Mystery Movie Clip and the Big Three are on the other side to stay right there. It's Cale & Company on demand from Tark Radio 1210-WPhD and the free ought to see it up. It's the Big Three 9 on Cale & Company. Big Three this morning, as we now know that the official recount has begun with multiple court appearances with RNC attorneys in court today, tomorrow, legally that recount must begin in all Pennsylvania counties by Wednesday at noon. But we have confirmed this morning we broke the story. It was already underway with even the Philadelphia Inquirer still questioning why long time incumbent Senator, who's a Democrat, Bob Casey, Jr., has not conceded. So we've talked about that this morning, but the update is there will be a 1 p.m. court hearing that's today and we know that waiting looming is a Supreme Court of Pennsylvania ruling because that was the RNC attorneys put this through last Thursday. So will that put the kabosh on some of those allegedly illegal ballots that have already been counted and what does that mean as we move forward? We're watching all of that very carefully. Number two, we have an E. coli outbreak that has killed at least one second dozens of others. And we know that it's organic baby carrots so that are multiple brand names so blame the carrots. Oh, was it? It wasn't the bunny the bunny brand was it? It's the Cal Organic Nature's Promise, O Organics, Trader Joe's, Wegmans. So this is a pretty comprehensive, yeah, a lot of retailers there. Carrot Recall. Absolutely. I eat those baby carrots all the time. What is up with all the E. coli outbreaks when we had the McDonald's one with the burgers and the onions? Now we got it with carrots. Yeah, and it's so in the McDonald's it was the onions and now this is the carrots. So we got that going on. So you see warning consumers don't eat these bagged carrots you want to check your fridge or your freezer throw them away. I just got my son to eat those baby carrots too because they told me he could be like Bugs Bunny. Oh, yeah. And now he's eating him and now I have to throw him away. Thank you. Thank you for that. Carrots are great for your eyesight. You've never seen a rabbit wearing glasses have you? It's true. You could you could probably as a precaution you can look at the packaging online but probably as a precaution if you're worried about it just cook the carrots. Ah, yes. You know what I mean? So it's most people cook all the nutrients out of them right but you're not for nothing but you know you could if you cook them then you're going to kill the E. coli right? Yeah Kevin. Kevin brings up a good point. Nature's Promise is giant brand. Yes. Okay. But it's that's yes it is you're right. They just they're sold under multiple names but they're organic. Gotcha. That's the bottom line here. All right. Yep. And number three I will say you sent me this Nick it was from Fox Business. The breaking news of the the morning was that spirit airlines has now filed for Bankruptcy Protection. That's correct. One of the three the three cheapies when I when I fly down to Tennessee it's either spirit frontier or a legion. You're lucky to get a seatbelt in the chair. This is chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Yeah. So they're saying it's not going to that it's it's not impacting guess ability to book flights or travel as normal. It just it gives them a little extra time to figure out their financial woes. Yeah. Just clearing out some of their bad debt. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The baggage of the debt. Yeah. So standard procedure. So they're trying to sell off multiple aircraft. They're laying off some workers trying to raise some cash and revenue. You know all the issues you want, you know, I don't know if it makes you a little nervous not for nothing. We're cutting costs, so therefore we we only have one one pilot. That's true. Exactly. And all you fat so is that one two seats for the price of one tough luck. We're in bankruptcy. Yeah. But don't cry about it on social. We are sponsored by Holland floor covering for our news and weather and this big three. By the way today, enjoy it. The high of 67 degrees with sunny skies and throughout the week, I'll just warn you that Wednesday, there's a sharp turn in the forecast rain developing at night Thursday. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. But what day? It's no, no. Okay. Wednesday for Jimmy Matthews. Okay. Wednesday morning is going to be okay. Okay. Good. It's going to be. It's actually going to be like 60 degrees and nice for Mother Nature seeing kind to Jimmy Matthew. Wow. See. He's going to run in 60 degree weather. No, that's perfect. That's not. Oh man.

Yeah, you've got to stay active, right? That's the key to longevity. Keep moving, right? That's where we're hoping. There we go. So let's talk about your time and the heroic acts that you were able to achieve in your time serving this country. You're in the army with the European theater, the ETO, the 12th Infantry Regiment, the 4th Division, and you are a D-Day veteran. If you could, walk us through what that was like and explain what that means to you to our audience. Well, actually, I didn't land with D-Day, I went in a few days later to establish the first attack hospital in the Utah Beach area. The division landed on D-Day's hour, and they ran into a heavy opposition, and they turned around and had a lot of that casualties. So you go... They broke our entire outfit up. We had all the enlisted personnel from the attack hospital, and we spoke to one of the leaders, who was with the doctors and nurses, and at 10 or 12 o'clock on the 15th on the 10th or on the 14th, they turned around, and the 4th Infantry Division had the only need to know all these replacements immediately that they turned around and broke our entire group up and put us with the 4th Infantry Division. So instead of working at a hospital, and vacuuming people, we'll have to see from France and England and all, we were stuck, we became combat medics. Okay. Very good. I see that you're going to be turning 100 coming up two days after Christmas. God bless you, and you have a list of accomplishments and achievements that can match anybody. I'm reading the Purple Heart, the Bronze Star, the Union League in Philadelphia, the Battle of the Bulge, 2023, Philadelphia Veterans Day Parade. You have done it all. When you entered, did you anticipate everything that played out in your life, whether it's while you were serving or afterwards, because you are still to this day, you were just nominated by Legion Post 405 here in Philadelphia. I mean, nobody has forgotten about everything that you have done for this country. Well, I've been fortunate, I guess, and I tried to do what was right now, and I just survived, was lucky to be able to survive, because I was left for dead on the battlefield and then on the poor things of July of '44. So you come back home, tell me about your life after serving, what did you do career wise, what did you find as a passion in your profession? Well, I came back, and I figured I could go up and conquer hockey, so I'd turn around and figure I'd get a job to win the factory, because it was a manufacturing city, or that town. And my answer to my mother did, I think, about chairman, and I said, "No," I said, "I had an academic in school, I learned chemistry in that stuff, and after I got a job, some merchant in that field," and she said, "Well, you know, I just think about it." So I'd turn around and I said, "Oh, I actually told my mother," I said, "I had the academic list, and the accounting comes out of their commercial." So I thought about it, and then I said, "Well, I'll go see if I can qualify." You know, I went and they accepted me in the school, and I went through, took up a county. So more or less, I changed my whole career. I should have got in nursing, because I wound up doing nursing work in the service before I got out. After I got back in the States, I wound up at England General Hospital, and I took care of paraplegic patients there. So I learned they become more or less a nurse and do nursing students. Okay. Jake, what an absolute privilege to chat with you a life well lived. Thank you so much for all of your service, and God bless you, and looking forward to you enjoying that celebration coming up on December 27th, 100 years young. Yes, thank you very much, and I appreciate your support and consideration and your asset. Call me. No question. Jake, thank you so much. God bless. We'll hopefully talk to you down the road. All right. I hope so. Bye-bye. There he is. Jake Ruser joining us here on Kaling Company. There he is. Jake, great stuff. He was so excited when we called him. We dialed him up. He picked up, and his excitement level just picked up tenfold. 100 years old, and he's more lucid than 99% of the people out here now. That's right. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. This group, I mean, there's just something different about their DNA. Agreed. Right? Yep. Whether it's their mentality, the genes, just a different era of American history, for sure. Yep. All right. Thanks to windownation for all of your window and door needs, visit windownation.com. We'll continue with those interviews a couple of more times this week, but we'll come back, we'll get to Phil's today in music history, as well as what's on tap for the Dawn show, and Dawn has something on tap right now, actually.

We celebrate the first days of Kirk Hammett from Metallica, who's 62, Herman Rarebell from the Scorpions, who's 75, John Parr, who's 72, and Rudy Sardso, who's now 74. We also lost Malcolm Young from AC/DC on this day in 2017. Sigglicood Shout by Tears for Fears in '84. You can't hurry love by Phil Collins in '82. You're no good by Linda Ronstadt in '74, and Pink by Aerosmith in 1997.

Also in '78, Billy Joe was top the album chart with 52nd Street, and '70 Led Zepp was top the same chart. In '92, Black Sabbath was on in Hollywood, and in '93, Nirvana recorded their MTV Unplugged Special in New York, and also in 2005. The movie Walk the Line opens in theaters, which is why we played the clip earlier. But lastly, on this day in '94, the Rolling Stones became the first major act to stream a live concert on the internet. Did it better than Netflix. It's mainly done for publicity to promote their upcoming pay for view concert, as very few computers can receive the webcast for Kill and Company, I fill up with. See, I tie it all in. The amazing sense of humor for a guy who witnesses bad football every Sunday. He always comes in with a great attitude the next day. By the way, Phil, if you're wondering if your camera froze, it did. Yes, and his hand in here, look at this photo, take a look at that. Oh my god. It's like your mid-proclamation. IT. IT. That's right. IT. There you go. Unbelievable. Yeah, better now than I guess. But normally, we don't go for a box too often. One day we'll get... It hasn't worked since I've been back from Arizona, not once. One day we'll get this right. We'll be in a major. By the way, real fast before we find out what's coming up on Don's Show, Old Man Dudley tweeted about the baby carrot recall that Don talked about. He said hypocrisy warning because, you know, obviously he's speaking to me, baby character a highly processed food, among other things, chlorine residue, by real carrots, clean them yourself. So, I do, yes, I have heard that they, you know, because they are very orange and baby carrots don't really grow in the wild. So, you have to kind of... Get one of those little skinners, right? Yeah. You're slicing them off in your sink, old school way. Thank you. Thank you for calling out my hypocrisy. There you go. He knows that you try to keep the rest of us balanced. It's true. It works both ways. There you go. All right. Don's coming up in six minutes. What do we have lined up, dear? We will update you, of course, on all of the proceedings as the recount in Pennsylvania takes center stage, so we have some updates there and some breaking news, and I'll take you through how Trump won. How did he win, especially here in Pennsylvania? And we'll go inside so that the break of the blue wall, as it said, and we'll take a victory lap, have some fun with that, but then show you on the serious side, a breaking news story that illustrates why the Trump win is so critical to your safety. We have a great... Coming up in the 11 o'clock hour, great interview with the author of The Rise of Blue Anon. So all of these conspiracy theories from the left, and we'll go through all of that, and we'll have some... You know, we'll look at these far left wing, if they're Cuckoo conspiracy theories, but like Keith Olberman Cuckoo, who's now yelling at Mika and Joe on social media for going to Mar-a-Lago, Keith's gonna really go down with the ship. I'm telling you, they did themselves no favors by doing that and saying that. Or did they? Yeah. Yeah. Mm-hmm. They're showing their big old salaries, I think they're gonna get the boot anyway. Yeah. There you go. All right. Dawn is coming up next. Everybody have a great rest of your Monday. We will see you tomorrow morning at 6 a.m. Good night, everybody. Start your day with Kaylin' Company, weekday morning 6 till 10, on talk radio 12-10-W-P-H-T, and the free Odyssey app.
