- Jalen company weekday morning, six till 10. - So I looked at them and like, oh, this must be like a blended marriage. - Yeah, no. - That's just outrageous. - And it's like, wow, you have nine kids. - They're like rabbits. (laughing) Those are some fertile people. - Man, they'd never get a moment of peace, do they? - Oh, good God. Can you imagine? - No, I can't. And now, I don't want to imagine. Like, you get to three or four. Don't you have that conversation. Are we good, hun? (laughing) - We've done our, we've done our penance to repopulate the earth. - I mean, my God. - Not for nothing, but that's why hubby, that's why they both had to go and work for boxing. - Yeah, I know. - You couldn't be a representative. - No. - I mean, it's worth that time. - Working in government is broke. - I was just going to say, does the government, or does the transportation secretary pay that much? - No. - No, I think they all pay like a buck 79. - Yeah. (laughing) - It's like, you know. - She's going to need a second job. - Yeah, it's our Rachel that I started doing some bigger endorsements. - You better start working, trying to get Ainsley's job on the weekday show. (laughing) Get off that weekend, Chef. - Oh, man. All right, 608, let's get to the news. Round number one, the great Don Stensland. - And good morning, Kale and Company. News live this Tuesday morning, November 19th. We're sponsored by Budget Blinds. We'll talk about the forecast because it is relevant to the breaking news this morning. Crews still working to contain that 40-acre wildfire. This is South Jersey, Hainesport, Burlington County. Flames broke out last night in the area of Bancroft Lane and Cove Court. And right now, it looks to be about 20% contained. So, you know, they've said that the New Jersey forest fire crews, they did establish that containment line directly, I mean, from all accounts, from what I'm hearing from people, this, they were fearing that their home would be swallowed up by these flames. It was that close. And so, at one point, there were 20 homes in that area that were threatened at this point this morning. And they did not have evacuations. They did an incredible job. And I'll point out to you, a lot of these firefighters, I know we have the New Jersey forest fire crews, but most of these firefighters, to my belief, are volunteer firefighters. - And this isn't something that has been spread because of some dope in a forest with like a campground, right? And this is all just a continuation of what started. - No, and you know, you always ask great questions, Nick. It's curious that you asked that because there was another story that the utility companies there were taking precautions because they have a drought. I mean, even though we've had a spattering of rain and we're supposed to get some tomorrow night, some good soaking rain on what we need, but thank God. But I just wanted to remember the whole, it wasn't at Hawaii, those, and other wildfires out West in California, there were situations with involving utility companies, sparks and that sort of thing. So now I think the utility crews are out because, and I believe here in Pennsylvania as well, monitoring that situation because of the dry conditions. - Good. - Yeah, so that was a great question, you asked Nick. And thank God, nobody hurt. We don't have word of any firefighters hurt because this was a huge hot fire, obviously, and it still is. Cause of that fire still, under investigation, neighbors were drawn out of their homes, but they did not have forced evacuations. So we'll continue to follow that one this morning and maybe even we have some folks listening that wanna call in and give us an update - Sure. - You know, for what's going on. The drought region across New Jersey, across Pennsylvania, that obviously fuels the situation, fuels the fire, and much needed rainfall is expected to arrive, like I say, tomorrow night into early Thursday, a nice soaking rain, that's really what we need. We have a victory for attorneys fighting for election, integrity in Pennsylvania. It's one of the many cases involving the recount for Pennsylvania's hotly contested Senate seat that we've talked about pretty much every day. Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruling that those incorrectly dated mail ballots cannot be counted. And so it was, so that was the ruling that came down yesterday. - By the way, that news broken right here on 12th NWPH 'cause you were like, Molly, it was on originally yesterday at 330, breaking that news. So this is a place to be, ladies and gentlemen, I know we tell you that all the time, but you can never, ever, ever, ever, ever turn the station. - That's right. - All day. - That's right, cancel plans. - Yeah. - Sell family to go pound sand. - Thank you. - I locked and loaded. - Thank you. So now the question is, there are some reports that they may be looking into, as far as one of those commissioners we've talked about, who admitted that she knew she was breaking the law, this is in Bucks County, Diane Margolis. So is she criminally liable for knowingly doing that and then speaking out about it? And so could there be some kind of civil or criminal charges here or some kind of a censure? We will await that word, but that's one of the things that they're looking into, but obviously that puts the kabosh on this counting that happened in Bucks, Montgomery, Philadelphia, as well as other counties, but Bucks kind of led that way so that others followed. And the question here is, it's not clear whether or not the counting of all of those ballots, even though I know it seemed like it, did that actually help to trigger the recount because there's a certain threshold and they're still trying to sort that out to let us know that because then it becomes more relevant as far as the commissioner who admitted that she knew that it was wrong. So we'll continue to follow that one for you. We've told you that this recount, it has been underway. We broke the story actually yesterday morning. We were first to report that six o'clock yesterday morning here on Killing Company News Live. So recount underway, every county at 67 counties in Pennsylvania must have that recount underway by tomorrow, that's the official start that they must have started the recount. And then as far as Philadelphia expected to be done by Friday, but as far as the law goes, the law is that by Wednesday, they need to, Wednesday at noon is that deadline. So next week, one week from today, one way or the other, it'll get her done. Beautiful. So we'll wait for that word for sure this morning. There's some good news with septa. Just to update you really quick on septa because they are saying that they will go back to the bargaining table. So we were, there were a lot of worries because septa, now there's a trifecta, if you will, with three large unions, suburban septa, septa in Philadelphia, and then you have the largest municipal union here in Philadelphia involving thousands of workers. So you think of no bus service, no school buses for the kids essentially, and then no things, you wouldn't have things like garbage pickup. So they have agreed to go back to the bargaining table and that they're holding off any strike. Even though they voted for a strike, they've authorized it. - I'll tell you what, we've been the epicenter of so many things lately. Have we not, whether it's locally here or statewide? This has been the hotbed of November for politics. From septa to unions to recounts to senate races, to determining the whole election, 19 electoral votes. Yeah, we've been right in the, right front and center for all of this. - Amen, brother. - Amazing. It really is. We have, you know, there's so much going on, I'll stop it there. We're actually, yes, she's texting me. So there are some rumors and some different news stories regarding the big fire in South Jersey. So hopefully we'll get a call or two. I'm getting word that we may. So we'll look forward to those calls and those on the scene I witnessed reports. We are sponsored this morning by budget blinds. As I said, the holidays are coming.

Like I say, tomorrow, thankfully, we will get that much needed rain overnight, but that will tee us off for some chillier weather. Unfortunately, Sixers and flyers are losing night for us. Sixers at Miami, no Embiid, or Maxie. No, Embiid played. Oh, OK. What are they? Two and 11? That's a bummer. Two and 12. They were up. Pliers were on a winning streak, though. We lost against the Avalanche. I think they were up at one point by, like, 19 points. Are they aware that the season is only 82 games and not 162? They don't think they're the Phillies, do they? It was brutal. It was brutal for that. Yeah, Embiid was like a last minute, you know, because he had tummy aches, so he wasn't going to play. But then he played the aches. And then I think he only-- He was sick. You don't know what that guy did. It's only something with that guy for 10 years. I think he only scored 11 points. Ah, it's bad. God, dude, yeah. And he's held together by duct tape and thumbtacks. Well, the sports station better hope that the Eagles go on on the run. It'll be reporting for pitchers and catchers by Christmas. When are we going to Clearwater, sir? You have 90 more days. Damn. Well, speaking of the NFL, exciting news. Elon Musk with X and the NFL teaming up. That's going to be pretty cool. Is that right? Yeah. Wow. So Elon making that little announcement. Is the NFL aware that X is full of right-wing racist sexist bigotry? They must have missed a memo. It's a big opportunity. They're launching a new one-stop shop and an NFL portal. OK, well, let's hope the portal works better than spaces. [LAUGHTER] This is Caelin Company Newslot. All right, Don. Thank you very much. 6/17, Tuesday morning. Let's get to another big take. Look, big take on Caelin Company. All right, the big take today. Trump, the FCC, and free speech. You know, it's not going to garner the same attention as Elon Musk, Bobby Kennedy, or Tulsi Gabbard. But Donald Trump, picking senior Republican Brendan Carr to head up the FCC, could prove to be one of the most consequential and influential selections in his second administration. The Federal Communications Commission is about to get a shake-up for the better with the vision of restoring free speech in America. And broadcast media is put on notice. Donald Trump, releasing a statement that said the following, quote, "commissioner Carr is a warrior for free speech and has fought against the regulatory law fair that has stifled Americans' freedoms and held back our economy." Carr thanked Trump yesterday by saying, quote, "We must dismantle the censorship cartel and restore free speech rights for everyday Americans." And if you own and operate one of the big tech companies, you should sharpen up on your platform's practices. Carr has already penned letters to Mark Zuckerberg of Meta and Tim Cook of Apple. And this marriage between Trump and Carr will also cause news networks like CBS to squirm. If you recall, Trump has accused CBS of deceptive editing practices and sued them for $10 billion last month after their 60-minutes interview with Kamala Harris. And we also recall and remember Trump's interview with Leslie Stahl over 100 Biden's laptop and the misinformation that was put out by CBS News, amongst others. And now also, CBS Sports has been accused of editing out Raiders Titan Brock Bowers, doing the Trump dance in highlight packages from Sunday's NFL telecasts. Carr also a proponent of Elon Musk's satellite service called Starlink, which was rejected by the FCC recently for nearly $900 million in federal funding. Carr also a staunch proponent of deregulating legacy industries, ending the DEI promotion practices of the FCC and providing rural America with better high-speed internet access. And speaking of broadband internet, here was Brendan Carr on Capitol Hill before James Comer and Jamie Raskin highlighting the failures of the Biden-Harris administration. Listen and watch this. In 2021, Vice President Harris agreed to lead the administration's signature $42 billion effort to extend internet service to millions of Americans. It's now been 1,039 days since that program was enacted. After all of that time, not one person has been connected to the internet, not one home, not one business. Not even one shovel worth of dirt has been turned. And it gets worse. No infrastructure builds will even start until sometime next year at the earliest. And in many cases, not until 2026. Remarkable. There seems to be a pattern with Kamala Harris. She was dubbed the border czar, but she never went much less uncover any of the root causes. She was charged with high-speed internet in the south and out in the Midwest, but never broke ground as you heard there. But for $7 billion, her and Joe, they did give you seven charging stations for those electric vehicles. Don't you dare forget about that. The more important task, though, for Brendan Carr is restoring free speech and making sure American broadcast media isn't doing things to undermine their obligation of what is in the best interest of the people. He's also fighting to help keep AM radio in your automobiles. Corey Lewandowski was a guest on Newsmax. And he had this to say about Trump's new FCC boss. Listen, and watch this. Bring to the table the proven leadership. Number one, Mr. Carr, who I happen in only consider a friend, has been through three static confirmation processes. And from what I understand has been unanimously confirmed by the US Senate on three different occasions. What he's also done is prior to this nomination, he has notified the big tech companies that they are on notice. And if they continue to use their platforms to disparage or to subvert the will of the American people and specifically spreading information, which we know to be true, Allah, the Hunter Biden laptop story, there will be ramifications. And lastly, he is the individual on the FCC who notified Saturday Night Live that they were breaking the law by allowing Vice President Harris on and not allowing Donald Trump on under the equal time provision. So he has been a warrior for the right on this. Big tech, you're on notice. If you have around, you're going to find out and Saturday Night Live. Well, you also failed this election season. Did you know that SNL's ratings were down 25% for election season from the 2020 election cycle and down nearly 33% from the 2016 election cycle. So why the drop off besides terrible cast members? Well, according to the Media Research Center, excuse me, 89% of election jokes on SNL were aimed at Donald Trump. And if you recall, SNL was accused by the FCC in November of violating the FCC's equal time rule by inviting Harris on the show, but not Trump. Brendan Carr said at the time, quote, this is a clear and blatant effort to evade the FCC's equal time rule. The purpose of the rule is to avoid exactly this type of biased and partisan conduct, a licensed broadcaster using the public airwaves to exert its influence for one candidate on the eve of an election, unless the broadcaster offered equal time to other qualifying campaigns, end quote. And speaking of the censorship cartel, how about this for karma? The Washington Post over the weekend, reporting that Stanford's Dr. J. Bhattacharya has emerged as a top candidate to lead the NIH. You might recall that Dr. Bhattacharya and two other academics wrote in October of 2020 during the fall of the pandemic that it was time to roll back COVID lockdowns and what did he get for his expertise? He was shunned and silenced on social media for speaking out. He became the boogeyman in the media to oppose Dr. Fauci, all because he wanted to ensure that public health returns to science-based solutions, not bureaucratic failed policies. And when you look at the second Trump administration, it could definitely be branded as the free speech absolutist administration. Trump kicked off social media only to come back a few years later. Elon Musk purchased Twitter, restored free speech. Bobby Kennedy has been silenced and censored countless times. And now Trump is putting his stamp on the first amendment with these selections. In fact, the Wall Street Journal, what the headline saying, quote, "Donald Trump has a historic opportunity "to combat censorship by federal bureaucrats. "He should order them to report publicly "their attempts to suppress speech." Because the answer to bad speech isn't less speech. It's more speech, robust speech, discussion, discourse, dialogue, and even debate. If Elon Musk leveled out the playing field on social media, then I think Brendan Carr is about to level out the playing field in broadcast media. And if you believe in the first amendment, you should be on board with this pick. Whether or not you like what people have to say is irregardless, and that's the big take. The big take on killing company. All right, big take this morning. If you want to jump in, you can do so. 855-839-1210 on social media at 1210-WPhD. And of course, let it rip in the YouTube chat.

More importantly, how are you doing? And tell our audience what exactly you're experiencing. OK, well, we are OK. Thank God. Our house is OK. It seems like everybody's house remained untouched. We woke up to the sound of helicopters on top of our house. There were just two or three of them out there. I was on my way home last night, and my son was calling me, and my neighbors were texting me, and I'm thinking, what the heck is going on? My son thought there was a house on fire, and then I started to read the alerts that my neighbors were sending me. And I live on Bancroft Lane, and it turned out there was a forest fire. So when I turned down my street, literally, there were 30 at best fire engines on our street. Those firefighters did such an amazing job. I mean, the neighbors whose houses were really affected. They're about 10 houses down for me. They literally had fire engines driving into their backyards. Oh, my God. The fire engines were parked in their driveways, and the smaller vehicles were going into their backyards. Then they started the control burn, which, I mean, I've never seen that before. It's not something the city girl who moved to the suburbs gets to see too often. But you actually have firemen walking around with what looks like a handheld little blowtorch, and they're actually setting the woods on fire. And you get scared for a second, because you're like, is this really going to work, or is this going to start a bigger fire that's going to jump the street and come into our houses? And by one neighbors, a professional photographer, I sent on some of those pictures this morning that she had taken. And it was scary. I mean, I don't know. We didn't say any wildlife or anything running out. I'm sure they took off the other direction. And just fortunately, the smoke went straight up. So, I mean, we don't even have really too much smoke smell on our end of the development. I was just going to ask you that. What is the air quality like for you from a breathing standpoint? Well, when we went to bed last night, we had the windows cracked, and we did have the shot on my eye and started to burn. But overall, the smoke just went straight up. There was no wind. They had said, if it would have been windy like it was on Saturday, we probably all would have been evacuated. And we were fortunate we had an amazing team of firefighters. And God was with us with the weather, because even though it's not raining, it wasn't windy, and it wasn't extremely cold. But it's amazing what 40 acres of burn can do. When you got up closer to just 10 houses down, you barely needed a coat. And when you got back down towards my house, it was freezing. Wow. So, it's crazy. Yeah, I can hear the new helicopters now, they're back over our house. Oh, I can hear that as well. Can you hear it? A little bit, yeah, right there, fingerling in the background, yup. I'll open the door. Listen to this, this is exclusive. Yeah, it's sitting right on top of my house. Wow. But in that moment, first thing I said to my phone, we all got home about the same time. And I said, go grab the cat cage. Where's our valuables? Where's the pictures? Where's this? I'm probably going to get a little bit more organized today. Because these newer houses, I mean, when I say newer, our houses are about 22 years old. They burn, and we had a few fires in our neighborhood. They burn in about 22 minutes. That's where you go, 17 to 22 minutes depending upon the flames. So, you know, you start to arrange your thoughts and try and keep your cool. Once we realized we were in a danger, we walked up, and we stayed out for about two hours last night, and they made a headquarters behind the Pandora diner, which just opened, and that's where all the firemen and we had forest rangers. I mean, it was something out of the movie. Unbelievable. Emory, if this is making national news, I'm looking, the New York Post has some incredible chopper shots where you see these beautiful homes, like on a cul-de-sac, and then right in their backyard, the flames, lapping. It looks like, you know, nearly at the back door. For you-- - That was war in place. - Oh, gosh. - So-- - Yeah. - They're calling it the big rusty wildfire. Why are they calling it? And does that lead you to believe that maybe that leads to the cause or what they theorize, maybe the cause? - Yes, unfortunately, we have one of these big troll statues, it was done by an artist named Thomas Dambeau, and it was really exciting because eventually, we're gonna have a nice park at that entrance, and we have this big troll made out of recycled materials, and it was supposed to be a fun thing for the kids, but unfortunately, it's kind of in a stagnant stage right now, just because of permits and whatnot, and it's a hangout for kids, and supposedly, there's footage from what we were hearing, I don't know if it's true or not, but there's footage of a car up at that area, and that is where the fire started. So I guess we'll know in a few days what's true and what's not true, but it is where the kids go hang. First thing I did, Thomas, I called Daniel, and I'm like, "You aren't anywhere near big rusty, right?" - You both have to make noise. - Right, I have a senior in high school, and he's like, "No, Mom, how is it the piece of light?" So, but it's surreal right now. I guess we're kind of still like, we're okay, so everything's gonna go back to normal today, but I'm gonna get a glimpse later on and see how burnt the woods actually are, but they're gonna be pretty burned out, and that's where our kids take hikes and things like that, and that's where they go and probably just be boys. - Yeah, the photo. The photo, Emory, you sent Dawn is up on our YouTube page right now, youtube.com/ out-1210vph if you wanna see it. - It's just amazing, and I sure hope you guys get the precipitation that we're supposed to get in the next 24 hours, 'cause you guys desperately need it. - Yeah, we're only about, I'm only 16 miles away from my office in the city, so we're really not that far out, but it's crazy how it is getting closer to us when you think of like, we're in state forest, it's a half hour away, and it's on your way to the shore, and now it's actually in your backyard, so. - That is a little bit scary. - Well, and stay safe, thank you for providing us some context, and God bless you, and we'll try to keep everybody up to date. - Thank you. - Thank you. - Thank you, have a good day, thank you. - Yeah, Emory, and Emory joining us about that. That picture's amazing, it was almost like a fluorescent purple tint to it in that picture. - Yeah, wow. And we still don't know if this was how this started. - Was it started by a little campfire, kids smoking in the woods? - That's why I was wondering. - What was it? - What was it? - Smoking in the woods, like-- - I'm just asking the question. - Smoky the bear for the 80s, you know what I mean? - Well, the whole forest went out, because somebody threw a lit cigarette. I mean, we joke, but it happened. - Oh, all the time, all the time, I almost got hit with one today on the scoocle. Guy fires out a heater out the back of his window, next thing I go boom. - Oh, heater, unbelievable. - Road Warrior asks if this area is between 38 and the Rank Ochis Creek? Does anybody know? - I don't know. I'm the worst guy to ask. - Yeah, yeah. - Well, because there are multiple, the Jennings, there are multiple fires burning. Now, I think that's why he's asking, because there are at least three different ones. So this one in particular, they, it looks like they've surrounded this one and contained it, but there's another one that has been burning that we've been reporting on. - Yeah, it can flow. - All right, if you guys want to jump in, anybody in Jersey, 855-839-1210, you can certainly call in and give us some reporting, just like Anne Marie did. So let's get to some of the fallout from a couple of our biggest stories from yesterday's show. We'll start with Morning Joe, because yesterday we played you the fact that about a two-minute chunk of audio and video of Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough from the MSNBC Morning Show, talking about how they're kind of burying the hatchet with Donald Trump. They've gone from calling him Hitler to meeting with him last Friday at 8 a.m. at Mar-a-Lago. So a couple of follow-ups to that, as Donald Trump comes out and says that the media is vital to making America great again. He vows to work with Free Fair and Open Press, and Trump did meet with MSNBC hosts of Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski on Friday in Palm Beach, his first meeting with the two in seven years. And he said the following, quote, "I received a call from Joe Scarborough requesting a meeting from him and Mika, and I agreed that it would be a good thing if such meeting took place. We met at Mar-a-Lago on Friday at 8.30. Trump said the meeting was, quote, "extremely cordial." Quote, "Many things were discussed, and I am very much appreciated the fact that they wanted to have open communication." Quote, "In many ways, it's too bad that it wasn't done long ago." Trump added that they, quote, "congratulated me on running a great and flawless campaign, one for the history books, which I really believe it was, but it was also a campaign where I worked long and hard, perhaps longer and harder than any presidential candidate in history." So he takes the victory lap, you know, unbelievable. Odds aren't they, they didn't say anything remotely close to that to him, but, yeah, you take it for what it's like, right? You know, hey, they kissed the ring. You can say what he wants them. That's correct. They look bad, he looks great. He said, quote, "We talked about various cabinet members, both announced and to be announced. As expected, they liked some very much, but not at all. The meeting ended in a very positive manner, and we agreed to speak in the future." Trump added, "I expect that this will take place with others in the media, even those that have been extremely hostile towards me." So let me ask you this, and I don't really know what was said, what was not said. I really don't care. I really don't care if the rest of the media falls in line and follows suit, or if they continue to double and triple down and call him Hitler. Actually, I take that back. I don't want him calling Hitler, 'cause it leads the craze he's trying to take off his head. But if they want to continue to make him the boogeyman, it doesn't really matter to me. I think, largely speaking right now, Americans are rejecting the mainstream media. I just saw a poll. I know, how about that? We just got off of an election, and I'm looking at a poll already. - No, no, no. - But echelon insights polled people, and they asked, "Do you approve or disapprove "of the way Trump is handling the presidential transition?" 53% of those that were polled over 1,000 individuals, either somewhat or strongly approve. So my takeaway from that is, to me, a majority of Americans approve of this Trump transition, proving once again how disconnected the mainstream media really is. So I don't really care what they say or what they don't say, but Don, do you think that there's gonna be other talking heads on the networks that now follow suit, or are Mika and Joe kind of lone wolves in that regard? - Well, I think they're the biggest one in the first one, so maybe we won't report as much on the others. But yeah, I think slowly, this is what we'll see. - Oh, I disagree. - I think people are gonna see the reaction that these two are getting, and they're like, "Screw that, I'm doing this." - Look, Greg, they might not come out in the way Mika and Joe did, which was coming out with their tail between their legs, but I think people are slowly, because think about all of their, they are irrelevant. They are completely irrelevant. That's what they are. And Mika and Joe basically admitted it. - Yeah, it was a ratings stunt. They were like, "We can't continue to do this. "We need to throw a Hail Mary, "and our Hail Mary is at Mar-a-Lago, "and you look like you're not impressing anybody, "because the right sees right through it, "and the left thinks you're a bunch of sellouts." So there's, like, I said it yesterday. This is the worst thing they could have done. - Well, they're being ripped by staffers. They're being crushed by their own. But you say a ratings stunt. I've always been fascinated by that term just because of the format that we do with talk radio. So is it a ratings stunt to get a boost, or is it just to get people talking about them? Because I feel like we're all taking the bait. I mean, that was the number one story yesterday in the country. Mika and Joe extend all of Branch to Trump. Everybody's talking about it. But does it lead the people actually tuning back into them and increasing their numbers? I don't know about that. - I think people are gonna tune in today to see if they react to the reaction. You know what I mean? But no, at the end of the day, MSNBC's viewers do not want to see somebody making nice with Trump, they just don't. They want to see somebody kicking them in the nuts. So this was a huge miscalculation by them, huge. And if they just wanted to save their quote unquote friendship or whatever they used to have with him, then do it privately. You know what I mean? Why make a big spectacle out of it? I just think that they're-- - Knowing there you go, they think they're probably starting to create world peace in the United States again. Hey, look at us. - That's true. - You know? - If we can do it, you can-- - Overman went off yesterday. - No, it was amazing. - It was off his rocker. - But it just shows you how much these individuals, first of all, it's all about them. They live in this little bubble now together so they have no checks and balances in their own lives. But then it makes me wonder because of the rumblings that we've talked about. Well before, weeks before the election, Comcast, the word was Comcast is looking to dump, to unload MSNBC. And then even like five days ago, again, that was rearing its head. So I just have to wonder, and I'm being serious, if they think, hey, all these people are getting these jobs, maybe we jump ship, because are their contracts tied together? They know if one's fired, they're not gonna keep the other, right? So they have huge salaries. They make a ton of money. And if Comcast now wants to sell, those big salaries got to go. 855-839-1210 is the number. If you would like to jump in, what are MSNBC employees behind the scenes saying about the olive branch from Bika and Joe to DJT? We'll give you those details according to sources, with knowledge of the situation on the other side. It's Kale and Company. Talk radio at 1210WPHT. - Yeah, just yesterday, Anne-Marie, who you just heard, we've become friends over the years and certainly because of the South Italy trip.

It's Cale and Company on demand, from Tark Radio 1210-W-P-H-T, and the free Odyssey app. Wednesday, Wednesday, Wednesday, 1210 a.m. Presetti, one and only. Jimmy Matthew at the Philadelphia Art Museum stand. A nephew of Chris. Get to witness the man who voted for Kamala, wearing mega gear. Despite his erroneous voting, Jimmy is making good on his bet. 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. He laments, drops 312 electoral votes. (upbeat music) Can he do it? Find out Wednesday, Wednesday, Wednesday. And tomorrow. What a spectacle it will be. And speaking of talking smack, MSNBC staffers, Slamming Morning Joe and Mika Brzezinski, after their little summit with Donald Trump, according to the New York Post and Fox News, MSNBC staffers are furious after learning that Joe and Mika met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, one unnamed employee vented to Fox News Digital, characterizing the meeting as quote, cowardice and disgusting, but frankly unsurprising. So it's probably one of their producers that hates their guts. I mean, Overman, Overman as crazy as he is, went in and basically called them grifters. Oh, he's like Joe Scarborough has always been a scumbag. He's always been a political opportunist. Okay. Because the clip yesterday was circulating online of him that many years ago, when he had his own MSNBC show. That's right. Talking to RFK Jr. I saw that. Saying that vaccines cause autism. Yeah. Boy, he walked that one back years later. Man, so that, you know, it's just funny to me because everybody, you know, Don says it all the time, he used to be a Republican. He goes to MSNBC, becomes, you know, this claims to be conservative, but like is so anti-Trump. And basically votes for the Democrats all the time anyway. But do you subscribe to the theory that a lot of these frauds on TV that claim to live left actually live right in their private life? I get the feeling that a lot of them do. Not all of them. I think they live that they're more and more center. They live the way they want to live because they're wealthy and they're elite. Yeah. And they expect to be treated differently than all of us plebs. And so now they're getting a little bit of a slap of reality in the face, if you will. True. By the way, going back to the Jimmy Matthews running up to our museum, Sep Smart. Hey, Suze on the YouTube chat says he plans to be there. I think Road Warrior is going. I think people, I think, especially the YouTube chat that likes to, you know, bus to stones all the time. I think you guys should go down there, just, you know, just to cheer him on, just to, you know, show support. He's doing this, he doesn't have to do this. Yeah. Chris fourth sight said he's going to be down there. Obviously, he's going to be filming. Right. So we'll have Captain Kirk from our staff. We'll be down there filming it for YouTube. So if you can't make it down there, we will stream it live on the video on YouTube. And I'm sure we'll put it out on the socials later. But really trying to be down there to cheer him on. No question about it. Maybe MSNBC will pick up this and broadcast and break into it. The same employee that told the outlet that MSNBC staffers were angry had, quote, become largely disdainful of the left wing network hosts in light of the news, calling them, quote, as Don just mentioned, and Greg, opportunistic for arranging to meet with Trump. And then some other contributors and hosts are sounding off. MSNBC contributor Jennifer Rubin called the meeting disgusting. And she said that on Blue Sky, the new social media platform. It's interesting to me too, because if you look at all those, you know, the MSNBC election night coverage, and every time there's a big news story, they have round tables. It's always Maddow, Joy Reid, Lawrence O'Donnell, Ari Melberg, Jen Psaki, Nicole Wallace. The Morning Joe staff never invited to any of those things. And they're like an island unto themselves on that network, and they can't feel good about that. No, it almost feels like they're independent contractors, right? Just bizarre. Katie Fang, host of the networks, Katie Fang's show, made a reference on X to Mika and Joe, saying, "Normalizing Trump is a bad idea, period. Normalizing Trump." We can't even air what Meghan Kelly said to Charlemagne, the God, because she said... She has salty language that one. She does, man. She's got a real potty mouth. I kind of like that in a check to be honest. Say it in a clean way, Dawn. Well, it was a lot of F words, but she is basically saying that they're blanking cowards and turncoats and ripping into them. Wow. Yes, you know. Maybe Brendan Carr at the FCC will allow us to use words like that in the future on broadcast radio. Nope. No, we don't want to use the word. We don't need, we have better nouns and verbs that we know how to conjure. No, I want a curse. Yeah, I want a curse. Yeah, I definitely want a curse. And I'm not using pronouns either. Yeah, I definitely want a curse. Because they got rid of her, so I'm never using mine. All right, 657, we'll come back, kick off hour number two with some news from Dawn Stensland. Then we also have the updated details as to just how expensive the Kamala Harris failed campaign was. But before we get there, and before we get to the cut sheet, the Trump dance was on full display, allegedly last night from not only a running back, but a quarterback that went off on the Dallas Cowboys and also a soccer star. But we need to analyze the tape. Yeah, I don't know if they are, if they are Trump dances. Now somebody on the YouTube jet said that a lot of them have been interviewed and said they were doing the Trump dance. I haven't heard those interviews. Bosa, yes, Bowers, yes, but the others I haven't heard. Okay, okay. It's kind of been a mixed bag. Let's, let's analyze the table again. We will, we will break it down. Hour two of Kale & Company is on the way. Start your day with Kale & Company. Week day morning, six till 10. On talk radio, 1210. W.P.H.T. in the free Odyssey app. Unreported costs of Kamala Harris' failed campaign. And what exactly she paid to people like Oprah, where we thought it was one figure, but it actually turned out to be something different. We'll get to that. And then also after the cut sheet this morning, probably in the nine o'clock hour, some of the programs and the federal spending that Elon Musk could trim off, some suggestions that are out there, some wild figures for some wild departments. That probably many of us, myself included, didn't even know it was a thing, we'll get to that. And also some of the areas in which Bobby Kennedy will look to make America healthier again. We'll get into some of the, in the weeds type stuff when it comes to our health. All of that's still ahead this morning. Plus this NFL Trump dance phenomenon that took center stage again last night. We're gonna analyze all of it for you coming up because now there's a report that the NFL might look to ban said dance, which is just absurd in its own right, but we'll get to that coming up shortly. It is so stupid. Plenty of thoughts on that. But let's get to the news, round number two at 707, the great John Stensland. - And good morning this Tuesday morning. November 19th, we are sponsoring The Killing Company News Live by Budget Blinds this morning. Developing story overnight with a grisly discovery according to police made on the driveway of a home in the Northeast, in Northeast Philadelphia police officers, as well as fire investigators. They were called to the scene. This is a home along Leonard Street in the Ronhurst section of Philadelphia. This happened just before daybreak this morning. And there was, you could see that they very quickly covered the body with a sheet, the body lying there on the ground. So they're not revealing any details about this investigation, what may have happened. So we're continuing to follow that one. They said that we know that there were some canines that were on the scene and it looks like there was some fire damage. So trying to see if that nearby fire, is that how is that related? But they're on scene. It is an active scene there. So that's a developing story. We're following for you. We also have tragic new information and update on that serial stabber in that was striking across Manhattan, an unbelievable situation. Now the third victim of that stabber has died. That's the word from authorities. This is in New York City. Police say this knife-wielding maniac just left this bloody trail. And this happened in Manhattan yesterday. Broad daylight started in the morning with this killing spree. 36-year-old Wilma Augustine has now succumbed to her injuries in the hospital according to authorities. And we're hearing about many good Samaritans who rushed in to try to help the situation. The suspect 51-year-old Ramon Rivera under arrest now facing these murder charges after police say he confessed to these random killings. So he was now we're learning more that he was just released from Rikers about a month ago and was living at a men's shelter. And so the question is he has quite a criminal record according to authorities. Why was this guy let loose to unleash? It started about 8.30 yesterday morning, walks up to a construction worker, Angel Landy, and plunges a knife into this construction worker's stomach. - It's just unbelievable. System failed all these people, right? And now you have to, because in the news again, is the Daniel Penny trial. So you talk about good Samaritans. Remember Daniel Penny was a good Samaritan that stepped in, intervened when somebody was being harassed and intimidated. And the next thing you know, he's the one on trial. - Yeah, I mean, that's well-put. Because I mean, they finally, people were, I guess, hearing about it after maybe the second or third, but this guy goes from that situation, flees the scene, then is accused of stabbing a 60-year-old victim, and that lady was a 67-year-old lady. And then, like I said, the woman in her mid-thirties. So these were just very random, unprovoked situations. - Yeah, because this guy's mentally ill, right? I mean, you just, saying people don't walk around randomly stabbing people. - Yeah, so even the mayor, Mayor Adams there, who's been under fire on a whole lot of issues that we've talked about, but he was asked about it and said it's not clear why this suspect was even back out on the streets because of the past criminal records. - Oh, I have a few ideas as to why. - Yeah, we've talked a lot this morning already about the crews working to contain that 40-acre wildfire. This is Hainesport, Burlington County, South Jersey, flames breaking out last night in the area of Bancroft Lane, and you heard this was COVE court. And it's still about, it's still 20, 30% contained, not fully contained, and so this is making national news, this dramatic fire in a housing development. No structures were absorbed or consumed by the flames, but if you look at those pictures, they came very close. And so at this time right now, many like Emery, who called in earlier, thanking those fire crews, New Jersey Forest fire crews, all the volunteer fire crews who are still battling this fire, and this is not the only one. So there are multiple fires burning. It's not too far, and she mentioned the Wharton State Forest. These are all protected lands. There's a beautiful aquifer there, gorgeous lands, but all of this obviously is created by the drought situation in the region. - Yeah, well, we could use two or three days of just steady rain, right? - I mean, it can't happen at a better time because of all of these fires. It seems like it's worse in New Jersey than for our area in Philadelphia. I know there were some out in the Redding area, I wanna say last week, but fire crews being diligent and just trying to warn everybody, please God, you know, don't throw a cigarette butt even at the side of the road because there are a lot of leaves, you know, these dry paper leaves. So we've got that going on. - Brian, who is one of our listeners, he's 91 LSX around the YouTube chat sent me a photo of, 'cause he's a pilot. He took photos of the wildfires near Montage Mountain on Sunday, so up there in the Pocono area, they have all kinds of wildfires up there as well. - Wow. - Crazy. - Oh my goodness. - Yep. - Yeah, so we have a lot of them going on and the New Jersey State Forest Fire Service, they're the ones, they're investigating this latest one. Was it caused by maybe a random cigarette, teen smokers, that's one of the rumors of theories or was it utility companies are now taking precautions? - So Road Warrior in the YouTube chat is saying that there's in the area that they're describing, it's a big homeless encampment area, is that true? - Oh. - Amory didn't seem to say that. - Yeah, I don't know, I don't know. - How's your yard look these days, Stalker? - Oh, it needs rain. - Yeah. - It needs rain. That also needs somebody to come and clean up some leaves. - Why don't you get out there and, you don't get out there and rake and blow the leaves? - I can skip it. - Like I do. - I can skip a nap for the right price. (laughing) - No, look, look, I'm making the economy home, lady. You know, that's what I'm doing. (laughing) - Home. - I mean, come on, come on. - He's just a hummer. (laughing) - Yeah, these leaves ain't cleaning themselves up. - Oh, no. (laughing) - They're everywhere. - Look 'em up. Okay, so, septa, we're hearing about the, you know, we've talked a lot about the three, the trifecta, not in a good way of these three Philadelphia strikes possible. All at once, these unions continue to negotiate. So we know that as far as septa officials, they're saying that they are all back at the table tomorrow. These are thousands of septa workers, not only here in the Philadelphia area, but the suburbs as well. Then we've talked about Ask Me, the city's largest union representing all the different workers in the city. So they're banding together, but they're saying that they're still continuing the negotiate. No breakdown talks. That's the good news for this morning. - You didn't go have a deal done before the holidays? At this rate, and by that I mean Thanksgiving, not Christmas. (laughing) - I think that, you know, the fact that all of these unions are working together with regards to, you know, the headlines, that always helps. - Yeah. - Right, so, but the question is money. All of, you know, all of the blue cities now, we have population loss, we see New York, they're trying to do that. It's really a newly created tax, where they're calling it a congestion toll. I think they're calling it nine dollars a day. - And did you see the spin that Kathy Hochl tried to put on it? - It was amazing. - She's like, well, it could be 15, but it's actually nine. So we're saving you whatever percentage that is. - When they were paying zero. - Yeah. (laughing) - This is like, that is next level politics. - My mom, that's my mom. My mom would say, my dad would go, you spent 500, you went out shopping? And you spent 500 dollars? And she will say, well, honey, I found an amazing sale. It could have cost us 1500. (laughing) - Right, right. - For 500 dollars. - You know, my wife tries to do that when she buys in bulk at Sam's Club, and I'm like, we only need one box of whatever for nine dollars. And she goes, well, I got seven of them, 'cause it was buy five, get two free. I'm like, we don't need that many. I don't care how many it gave you for free. (laughing) And just updating you as we've been doing, Pennsylvania's State Supreme Court, weighing in on this issue with the ballot, the counting of illegal ballots, which by the way, the Pennsylvania highest court in Pennsylvania, the Supreme Court here, had just ruled on November 1st, which we talked about it then. And so against that, we have at least four counties going against the law, Pennsylvania State Supreme Court, properly upholding the law that they just upheld on November 1st, that was questioned, and saying that you're not allowed to count these illegal ballots, they're not signed properly, they're not dated, they're improper. Illegal ballots, no, you cannot count them, but the recount is continuing now. So the deadline is next, we'll know in about a week, folks. - Somebody's gonna have a really nice Thanksgiving. Put it that way. - Yeah, I mean, there was a story that somehow they, because I thought that they have to count every single one, they just have to use a different machine. Then there was another story that I guess El Shmit was quoted on where they roll the dice, and they do these random recounts, and that they don't physically go back and recount every single one. So I have to look at that law, that we have some crazy, like antiquated laws. - They're all the dice, what are they playing a board game? - I know. So I just think that by all the experts, all the math people, all the stats people say, that the math just does not add up, even though it's, at one point it was within 17,000 votes. Dave McCormick, the Republican candidate for the US Senate, I mean, this race has been called, even by the Associated Press. And because if you look at the math, there's just no way they get to that number. - Right, it's not a matter of if he concedes it's win. He's just wasting a lot of taxpayer dollars in the process. - Well, not just wasting, so to your point, Nick, the minimum cost is a million dollars. I'm imagining that the opt cost is all of these court battles now, because there are some illegal situations, just like we just saw, the lawyers have to take it to court or whatever. So it's anywhere from one to three million dollars, that's the cost I've seen. But I think the bigger issue, and I'm still getting the fundraising texts. So the KC folks are fundraising off of this saying, please will you donate $5, will you donate $10 to help with the recount? So they're fun, they're using this as a fundraising tactic. - Unbelievable. - Mm-hmm. - Sounds like a case for doge. - (laughs) And speaking of that, we have to get your take on this NFL Elon Musk, putting this out there, saying that yes, he and the NFL, this is a new space, the greatest space with the NFL, it's a special space on X, and the NFL hooking up. - Mm-hmm, it's a pretty cool story. - I think it's a great partnership, because you have so many people that are football fans that are conservative, that believe in free speech, and things like that. And X is the platform to do it, so it makes a ton of sense. But everybody, Elon's an opportunist. Everybody wants a piece of the pie with the NFL. It's a bulletproof league, they just print money. This print money makes all the sense in the world. By the way, Netflix is still getting roasted for their streaming of that fight. They better figure it out, because if they can't handle 60 million for a fight, now I don't know what NFL ratings are and how many people tune in for specific games, but let's just say there's more people tuning in for football than a washed up fighter. You better hope your platform doesn't crash. - Well, this was the test case, right? - Well, yeah, this is the biggest ever. - Yeah, to see if they could do this for, you know, wrestling or hands. - You know, and I hate the sense, but I actually think the Tyson fight is probably a bigger number than most NFL games. - Oh, definitely. - Oh, yes. - There's no way-- - Yes. - 60 million people are watching a random NFL game, right? - 100%. - Hell, the Super Bowl only gets a 90 million. - Yeah, 90 million, right? - But, so to your very point, you know, because Elon, he put out on social, or actually was Linda Yacorino, who went to school here at UPEM back in the day, but put out a statement, X is the world's largest stadium, and we are delivering the ultimate fan experience. Are they going after the live experience with sports? To your point. - It'll be interesting if they were doing that. - Mm. So, it's a new portal includes a feed that aggregates tweets from NFL teams, the rights partner accounts, like NBC, et cetera, and then reporters from those outlets like NFL Media, ESPN, so they're literally centralizing this as a one-stop shop. - Well, we just gave you the story yesterday that a lot of companies that bailed on X for the last two years are returning to advertise, you know, IBM, Comcast, things like that. So, all of a sudden, now X is the place to be again, I guess. - Is the place to be? - Are you not gonna do the story I sent you? Don't sense, Lynn, you don't read your texts? - You know what? I have a lot going on over here. - There's a lot breaking down there. - All right, Phil, I'm breaking in here, and I'm doing news now. - Oh, no. - I'll do it, I'll do it. - There's an alleged yard pooper. I didn't get that text. Did you say that to me too? - I swear, I don't have a text from you. - Yard pooper? - All right, maybe I'm wrong. - I don't have a yard pooper text. - Okay. - Oh, no, there it is, no, I do see it. - Do you have it? - Yeah. - I don't have a yard pooper text. - So, apparently, this is all, this is all alleged. You can go to the YouTube chat and see the-- - Oh, here it is. - The Ring Doorbell video. - Oh my goodness. - Neighbors in Northeast Philly are looking for a man who allegedly pooped in someone's yard overnight around 12.30 a.m. By the way, I'm getting this from a Philly crime up there on Twitter. - This is big news, folks. - This is-- - Big stinky news. - Is that Bob Casey? So, apparently, he rolled up with a backpack. This is according to the post. At 12.30 a.m, rifled through it, took a few things, left, young girls' clothes scattered around the yard, then relieved himself. - All right. - Number two. - Yeah. - Use the clothes to finish himself off. Can I just say this? I have to be careful how I say this. - No. - You talking about wiping himself off? - Well, yeah, I don't wanna, yeah. I don't know what you-- - It doesn't wash his hands. - It rubs the lotion on its skin. - Ew. - So, this allegedly happened near Academy in Byberry. - Wow. - The Northeast. - So, he's a-- - Update, he's a-- - Definitely. - Handy snatcher, and then he poops on your deck. - Wow. - I've seen some stuff in my day, but this is a guy I like to, I'd actually like to interview this guy. - This is, this is news you can use. - Yeah. - I'd definitely like to-- - Once he's arrested, you know, I want a nice glass divider between ourselves, and I'd like to chat with him. What made you resort to pooping on somebody's patio? - Hey, this is all ledge. We don't know if this gentleman's doing it, or a lady, it might be a lady, I don't know. - Wonder Woman says, "I see this all the time at work." - No. - What? - No. - Where do you work? - Yeah. - No HR in that place, huh? - I mean, maybe it's a homeless person, or maybe they really have to go. - Or maybe he's just mooning the ring doorbell cam. (laughing) Take that surveillance guy. - Remember we had the, remember we had the situation with a superintendent, super pooper, and-- - Super pooper. - Back in the day in New Jersey, I think this is a sign of a mental health issue. - Oh, you think? - Or irritable bowel syndrome, eh? - No. - You just can't hold it anymore. - The superintendent back in the day claimed-- - Did this talk about Tuesday? - 'Cause it was like a runner, and that you had to go. I think there's a little something psychological to read. I don't know what that is. I'm not a psychologist, but, oof, there's a nice thing. (laughing) - That is cool. - So there you go, so if you're in that area, look out for a dude who allegedly might be defecating in people's yards from the believable. - There you go. - What is the sign? (laughing) - That's just so gross. - Only on Kalan Company will you hear a story like this. - That's right. - Thank you very much. - That's right. - The super pooper-- - Yep. - In the Northeast. (laughing) Well, you know what you need to do when you see that? (laughing) - Shut your blinds. (laughing) - Turn that motorization on, baby. - Yeah. (buzzing) - If there was ever time to get budget blinds, Academy and Byberry, everybody in that area, you need to get budget blinds. - Woo, man. - Use the radio offer. - Oh, the holidays are coming.

How appropriate that budget blinds is our sponsor Kalan Company in his life. We actually have an exclusive quote from our super pooper on what the conditions were like late at night last night when he did that. - I'm freezing my ass off off. - Oh my goodness. - Yeah, he's freezing his ass off. - 1230 is bright cold. - That's right. - Look at Mark, he was comments. - My God. Here's some advice about pooping on somebody's deck. - Yeah. (laughing) - Go, thank you, Joe. (laughing) - Just some people. I mean, how do we follow that up? - Yeah, you can't. - Unbelievable. - Cut sheet in 20 minutes. The NFL and the Trump dance sports figures everywhere. Are they really doing the Trump dance? Some yes, some no, some somewhere in between. They don't want to get canceled. They don't want to be yelled at. They don't want to be fined. We'll break it all down, especially after CJ Stroud and Joe Mixon apparently did more of the same against the Dallas stinking Cowboys last night on Monday night football. Back after this on Kalan Company. - I have been identity-thefted. If that's a word, two times in my life and it was a horrible experience. You never want this to happen to you and I don't want it to happen to you. That's why when I heard about DuckDuckGo Privacy Pro, I had to look it up, do my research, do my due diligence. It is a, it's rated as a superior personal information removal product among other things. And so I want to go through this with you as I've been, I heard about it about a month ago and just yesterday looked and they were actually able to block 42 different creepy sites just yesterday from doing these searches. The thing with DuckDuckGo in general, and I had the app on my phone. I got the free app initially. You know, I did that years ago because if you want to keep your searches private and out of those data profiles, other legal requests, that sort of thing, you need to use DuckDuckGo in the first place. But this is something, this is an added layer that's three in one protection and it's a subscription service and I am loving DuckDuckGo Privacy Pro. So as far as identity theft, let's think about that. Whether it's through a data broker, maybe a data breach or maybe somebody who's deliberately trying to, you know, they're an identity thief, if you will. Your personal information could wind up in the hands of that identity thief, which is, which as I tell you, I went through that twice in my life. You never want that to happen to you. It usually starts with something small. Maybe you made a purchase on your credit card, open an account in your name and maybe you were, you did not have a secure VPN and you thought you were safe in that coffee shop or you were out of town, right? But you weren't safe. Once that thief gets traction, oh my goodness, the problems just snowball and obviously can wreak havoc in your life. It's a major hassle. So DuckDuckGo's Privacy Pro subscription service is secure and it's a free browser in the first place, a free browser, but now you're gonna add that layer that I talk about. DuckDuckGo's VPN with the strict no logging policy.

The Washington Examiner reached out to the NFL for comment. They have yet to receive a comment back from the league in regards to all of these celebrations. If you were watching the NFL on Sunday, you might have seen, especially on the Red Zone channel, a bunch of players doing the Trump celebration dance to the YMCA, the Tennessee Titans, Nick Westbrook, Aquina and Calvin Ridley, the San Francisco 49ers Leonard Floyd and Nick Bosa, the Detroit Lions, Malcolm Rodriguez and Zidaria Smith will play you what Houston did last night. But in the past, the Washington Examiner has written about how the NFL has disavowed political protest, such as the movement in 2016 that had many players, including Colin Kaepernick, kneeling during the national anthem. By 2018, the league required all players to stand for the anthem because the NFL dealt with a lot of pushback in 2016 and 2017 from fans that do not want to see political or social justice messaging on their NFL Sunday telecasts. Now, a couple of thoughts on this because this is becoming a big thing and I think there's gonna be people that are gonna start having meltdowns over it because I don't consider this to be a form of protest. This is a celebration. Kaepernick took a knee in protest to social justice issues in this country and Colin Kaepernick also had police as pigs on his socks. But to me, you can't have it both ways. That's the definition of hypocrisy because all of these political and social messages on the back of helmets and sidelines and in the back of the end zone and then simultaneously say we're gonna ban a dance. You either allow all of this or you allow none of this and permit none of it. You can't selectively pick and choose a la carte, which political or social messaging is permitted and what is not. But the NFL lost some viewers in 2016. They lost some viewers in 2017. They got them back pretty quickly. And I would argue against hurting your bottom line as a business. Do not allow your league to go down because of or your business, your bakery because of politics. The NFL is king. It's always been a bulletproof league. Everybody wants a piece of the pie. And I would tell all of their woke partners, the broadcast networks, NBC, CBS, ESPN, Fox to a lesser extent. I don't think Fox cares about it as much. Even though Fox Sports is separate from Fox News, they're all part of the same company, Netflix, Peacock, whoever, Amazon Prime. Because I think in reality, all of these networks, they need the NFL more than the NFL needs them. And at the end of the day, Trump is a, Donald Trump is a wildly popular figure. And if a dance that, oh, by the way, he did not create, but merely adopted and he became synonymous with, offend you, then I would just say take a hike. I mean, this is in no way. There's no props. There's nothing Trump on NFL uniforms. Nobody's walking around with MAGA socks on an NFL Sunday on the playing field. It's merely a dance. You know, the fact that it's been adopted by college athletes, fraternity bros, soccer players around the globe, we've got some clips. And the reality is this, it's fun, right? We were told not to make it politics, but Kamala Harris, we're going to have joy and hope. I don't know, it seems like a lot of people are having a lot of joy right now in the fact that people are dancing and mimicking Donald Trump. Just don't become the no fun league, right? - I just want to know what grounds would the NFL ban this? - Well, that's my thing, it's not a political protest. - It's not. - It's a celebration. Now, I believe a few years ago, for a while, the NFL had banned all celebrations. You could spike the football, but you couldn't celebrate with your team. Now they have the thing where all the players get together in the end zone and they pose for like a photo. They've allowed those things back. It's become fun again. You're not allowed to pull out props. Like Joe Horne years ago, pull the Sharpie out of his sock. - Right, yes. - Right, T.O. pulled out a cell phone, right? You can't do that. - But this dance should not be banned. - Who was the player that got down on all fours and mimicked a dog peeing on a fire hydrant? - Oh, that was, oh God. - If you don't know, it's nobody. - No, yeah, I'll figure it out. Somebody can find it for this and maybe Phil can find it. It wasn't a jet because they never score and celebrate. But if Phil, you could find that. - That Odell Beckham? - It might have been, it was some nutty. - Yeah, Odell Giants, Odell Beckham, he was fined $12,154 for his mimicking of a dog urinating on a fire hydrant. - Yeah, maybe-- - His touchdown celebration. - You're a professional eagle. - You're a perfect funny, but like I get it, you're a professional athlete, there's kids watching. But like the Trump dance, I mean, you know, if somebody's not into politics, they have no idea that that's the Trump dance, right? - Exactly. - They just see some dude having a good time. So let's play these. Let's go through and fill if we can. I know you sent me the labeling. I wanna start with Joe Mixon, if you could. I forget if that was K-1 or not. But this was the Houston Texan running back, scoring a touchdown on the Dallas Cowboys last night. (crowd cheering) - Mixon, a walk in, touchdown Texan. - Here it comes now. (crowd cheering) - That kind of trophy. - Yeah, yeah, not really, but kind of. - Yeah, I can see where they would say that, but I don't know. - Okay, now I do think CJ Stroud, the Houston Texan quarterback, who I do know from having seen him do interviews, is a big religious individual. And no idea if that means he's a Trump supporter, then two are not necessarily tied together at the hip. But let's see, this is, I believe, K-2, this is CJ Stroud. (crowd cheering) So that kind of looks a little more Trumpian to me than Joe Mixon. - And now Greg, you said, I believe you found the soccer club. - Yeah, this is a Christian polo-check, from, by the way, from Hershey, Pennsylvania. (crowd cheering) (crowd cheering) - Now watch him. (crowd cheering) - See? - Yeah, that's probably the closest I think. - Well, everybody on the YouTube chat is saying, "I don't follow soccer at all." But everybody on the YouTube chat is saying that he's a huge Trump supporter. - Okay, and I think a lot of pro athletes are definitely Trump supporters. And what's interesting is, you always see these athletes, 'cause they're so juiced up and energized, that the actual dance in the heat of the moment, while your adrenaline's pumping, goes a lot faster than Trump actually does at dance, right? - Yeah. - 'Cause Trump's just up there on stage. He's 78 years old, but you got a 28 year old athlete, and it's all juiced up, and it's just like... So it doesn't always look identical to it. But I mean, I really do think this is a phenomenon that is sweeping the country, because I think a lot of people are not afraid now to say that they're a Trump supporter anymore. - So did anybody ask either CJ Stroud or Joe Mixin' about this last night? - No, yeah. - Like you said that they asked other players. - Yes, we talked about Brock Bowers yesterday. Again, the quote and the question from the USA Today reporter from Safid Dean, he was the one who posed the question and suggested it was the reason that the press conference yesterday, post-game for the Raiders was cut short. He says, quote, "Ask Brock Bowers "about his Trump TD Selly." Quote, "I've seen everyone do it. "I watched the UFC fight last night, "and John Jones did it. "I like watching UFC, so I saw it, "and I thought it was cool." Raiders PR ended his post-game availability immediately after that question. (laughing) So I'm some slappy from PR, that's the 25, making 40 grand a year. All right, that'll do it, Brock's gotta get in the shower. - Unbelievable, you know? So, there you go. I mean, that's pretty obvious to me. I think most people are doing it. There's a few where I'm not sure because of different adrenaline rushes or things like that. But it'll be interesting to see, because a lot of these networks, you know, obviously have a sports entity on top of their news entity. Like, you know, CBS and then CBS Sports, NBC, NBC News, and then NBC Sports and Peacock. So, you know, they're probably against showing it. I know CBS ran some sort of montage package of highlights Sunday night around seven o'clock when the Chiefs Bills game signed off. And a lot of people said that when they went to the Raiders Dolphins game in the montage package, and Brock Bowers had an amazing game. You have like 12 or 13 catches. They did not show the end zone celebration of Brock Bowers. - That's amazing. - So, that is amazing. - Yeah, there's some of the NFL brand manager in there. Like, yeah, make sure we edit out that Trump thing. - Gotta highlight package for Sean. - It's so, but it's so innocuous that you really have to follow politics to know. - That's the whole thing, that's true. - You know what I mean? Like, I would, if you're just a casual fan, which by the way, I would assume most NFL, you know, people watching the NFL on Sundays are- - Right. - They would have no idea. - Correct, correct. - They would have no idea, except the fact that the media is making it such a big deal. - Right, well, somebody clips it from social media. - Sure. - They post it, it goes viral. People talk about it, people ask about it, but for those of us that are not on social media, which is most Americans, you know, people are oblivious to this type of stuff, right? - Yeah, I just think the whole thing is stupid. And if you're the NFL and you're gonna, you know, crack down on this boy, that really says something, doesn't it? - And it'll come and go like everything else. - You know, remember guys in the NFL last year, it was Justin Jefferson was doing the gritty dance or whatever, there was the doggy. There's all these dances that go viral, they lay last six weeks or something, and then we move on to the next thing. - Yeah, but to your point about the dance, do they have like a review team? (laughing) - Believe it unless they, a Trump task force. - He didn't quite move his arm, extend his arm enough to actually be the Trump dance. - Well, I would say it, if I were grading all of these, the three that we played, I would say the only one that was definitely the Trump dance was the soccer player. - Agreed. - Yeah, agreed, agreed. - The other two are the best. - The other two, I would say, are questionable. - It's a lot like Trump impersonations. You have Sean Ferris, and then you have everybody else. - Everybody else. - So it could be that because some of them actually don't, they suck, so maybe they won't get the fine, the money actually. - That was my first question when Bosa did it for the 49ers two weeks ago, and then he got fined, and he wore the MAGA hat. If he doesn't wear the MAGA hat, we probably don't really know specifically what his intent was. - Yep, so, by the way, on the YouTube chat, 321 Chris says that YouTube has shut down this show on his fire stick. - Oh, great. - Really? - So he has to watch it on his phone, interesting. I wonder why. - Fire stick, huh? - I haven't heard that in a while. - It's interesting. - Okay. - Well, if anybody else has those issues-- - Thanks for that. - Yeah, we'll pass it along to Brendan Carr. (laughter) And I know everybody's like, you should get it off of you today. I'm not getting off of you today. I'm not getting off of you today. I'm sorry. - And I didn't say it to most viewers. - Yes, and I gave you some of the fall out numbers of media last week, and one of the big takes. A lot of, I know this audience is like, oh, go to rumble or go. A lot of Republicans go to YouTube at a higher rate than Democrats do. - Yep. - Which I gave you some information on that last week. - 100%. - We go where the majority of the people are, the majority of the people are on YouTube, so we will continue to fight the good fight and put our content up there, and if they take it down, that's not much we can do about it. - I think we got taken down yesterday, didn't we? - Yeah, but it's, we usually get taken down on Mondays because we played some of the-- - SNL. - The fight, we played SNL, Netflix. - Well, you just played everything that's been bad. - And you're right, protected. - NBC, all of that stuff's been copyright protected, so we get taken down from it, so. - You would think that they would want their product to be, you know, reaching other people. But I guess not, I don't know. - My car said I had a Firestick once, the penicillin helps. - Oh. - Firestick. - All right, cut sheet is coming up on the other side, but first a word from my friends at the Piazza Auto Group 2025 is almost here, hard to believe, just about five, six weeks away, right?

Yeah, I don't think Sean Duffy will be wasting his time on that, as he takes over for Chest Feeder Pete. - Oh, that's the same. - It's just facts, yeah, we've seen the pictures, yeah. What are you gonna do? To eat you's own, knock yourself out, man, you only live once. - And plus, you know he's got better boots, Nick. - Well, I mean, come on, who doesn't? - Duffy has better, but yeah, better boots. - Right, well, you should be making that kind of TV coin. - You're going to a disaster area with the... - Yeah, with Abercrombie and Fitch boots. - Did designer boots roll, man, like, come on. - And an old Navy tech fest. - Yeah, I mean, I'm not saying I'm the manliest person in the world, and I'm not the most fashionable, but damn, I know bad. - Yeah, it's bad. - Bad. 754, let's see what Stalker has lined up for a Tuesday edition of What's On The Cut Show. - What? - On. - Yes. - But cut sheet. - Cut from The Cut Show's Tuesday, bro.

Check them out on Route 70 in Cherry Hal, Cherry Halbabbo, where, really, just a matter of thank you, just grabbing it for always being a great friend and sponsor to 1210WPHC. We could not do this, what we do without sponsors like you and the other great sponsors on our radius. It's, I say this all the time, but I just want to take 10 seconds to say this. All the live reads, all the commercials you hear on this radio station, especially the ones read by myself, Dawn, Nick, Dom, and Rich. Make sure you're patronizing them, because we cannot, you should use them exclusively, even if you don't need to, even if you don't need a new car, even if you don't need to do this, just go in there and say thank you for sponsoring 1210WPHC because we really couldn't do it without them, and God only knows where we would be without them. - True, I'd be selling insurance. - Yeah, we all would be. - I'd be working at Wauwau. (laughs) - I could see you bring a serving up hash browns in a sizzling. (laughs) - What do you want on this? Come on, man! (laughs) Get off your phone, dope! (laughs) - By the way, I have to find some Twitter idiots. - Oh yeah? - Just the worst thing. - What, today or last night? - Right now, the worst people, just the dumbest people. - You know what I say. - Everything needs to be on Twitter. - Yeah, reading. - Thinking they read ratings, but they have no idea what they're talking about. - It's a bunch of dummies, seriously. - The one number that's published publicly? - Yeah, yeah, yeah, stupid people. Stupid, stupid, stupid people. Okay, I want, wait, before we do this, I want to say this 'cause this is a highly rated segment. For all of you tuning in right now, tomorrow morning at 830, Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy Matthews, one of our listeners and YouTube chatters, we'll be running up the art museum steps to pay off a bet, because he voted for Kamala Harris and he said that if Trump would win, or if Trump won, he would run up the art museum steps in his boxer shorts wearing a magigear, we're gonna have a kaolin company, 1210W PhD flag. And he's gonna do that tomorrow at 830. And I'm asking everybody to go down there, if you're able to the art museum steps at 830 and cheer him on. - There you go. - He's being a good, he's being a good sport about it. - Yeah. - So, that's tomorrow at 830. If you can't do it, we will stream it all here on 1210W PhD, we'll have the video. Captain Kirk will be down there, so. - And then once Captain Kirk comes back, I will take that flag, put it on my truck, and then crank up the YMCA song and drive around Montgomery County. - Wait, wait, will you do the Trump thing? - Oh, wait, he's doing it right now. - I will, yeah, I was just doing it, yeah. And I'm admitting I'm doing it. You gonna find me NFL? - No fine for you. - No fine. - All right, on to more serious issues. Dawn, to your credit, you did a great job yesterday at 10 o'clock talking about the Lake and Riley trial. I was listening to it at my desk 'cause I was trying to get work done. You did a very good job. Dawn stands on every morning at 10 a.m. I don't know if you got to this, forgive me. But this was the roommate of the illegal alien who murdered Lake and Riley. He says that they got a taxpayer-funded flight thanks to the Biden administration to Georgia. - They flew them in. - They flew them in. This is part of the trial that started with Monday, right, or Friday? - Friday, yeah. - Yeah, starting with Friday, all right, cut it, go. - What else that you've got to know that you look with while you were hearing out this? - (speaking in foreign language) - (speaking in foreign language) - (speaking in foreign language) - And how did you get to Athens? - (speaking in foreign language) - (speaking in foreign language) - In New York, we asked in Manhattan. - (speaking in foreign language) - And hotel roofing? - (speaking in foreign language) - Roosevelt, Roosevelt. - (speaking in foreign language) - In Manhattan, we request there for humanitarian flight to come here to Atlanta. - And when was that? - (speaking in foreign language) - Around the 9th, 10th of September. And where did you go when you arrived in Athens? (speaking in foreign language) - (speaking in foreign language) - To the airport, (speaking in foreign language) - (speaking in foreign language) - (speaking in foreign language) - Just to add a little extra context to this case, Allie Bradley is a reporter for News Nation, that is not Newsmax News Nation, the Cuomo station, she reported that DHS sources confirmed to her that the suspect in this murder of Lake and Riley is a confirmed member of Trendy Aragua, which is obviously that gang that has infiltrated the United States from the southern border. I can't, I mean, as a father of daughters, I can't, and I've seen some of the video of Lake and Riley's parents in the courtroom sitting there crying. I can't imagine what it's like to know that your daughter had to endure that sort of brutality, and then knowing that this current outgoing administration is complicit in my daughter's death. I mean, taxpayer-funded flights that sent my daughter's killer from New York to Georgia. I would be raging beyond human comprehension, politics aside, it wouldn't even matter if it was a Republican that had done this. Just, and remember these flights, we were talking about these. Fox and other outlets were reporting these overnight, late night flights, we saw some migrants, and again, nothing against the ones that are here legally. Even the ones that are here illegally don't like the fact that you're here illegally, but if you're here for good intentions for a better life, not gonna ultimately crush you, but you do have to go. And I hope Tom Homan gets everybody out illegally, because sometimes we don't know the good ones from the bad ones. You see him laying in the airport, what was the video at Logan, I think it's Logan International Airport in Boston, where they had an entire corridor of migrants just like laying on the floor. - Yeah. - This whole concept the last four years is egregious. And guys like Alejandro Mayorkas, man, I just don't know how you sleep at night and live with yourself. I really don't, just disgusting. - Yeah. - Jose Ibarra, is that all right? - All right. - Yeah. - So it looks like they're about as far as the prosecutors, it looks like they're about to rest their case, but you know, the whole defense, it's a quarter point of defense attorney. The entire defense is trying to put the blame on his brother or somebody else, and I think the most compelling piece of that evidence is that they show, thank God for body cam video, because they show the officers making the arrest when they go in to this, to the apartment, which apparently is all being paid for. That's another piece of this, not just the flight, but they want the police go in and they're questioning each person. The only one who had his knuckles all scuffed up and had defensive type of scratches was the accused killer here, the accused murderer. And so that's compelling because they're trying to pin it on somebody else, but if you see that, there's no way that you think, and they did get his DNA and skin, they say from underneath her fingernails. But yeah, to your point, Nick, it's just unthinkable, the poor parents in there, having, and the judge had to put a delay, you know how like how Greg delays things in case somebody calls and curses, the judge put a delay to make sure, but certain, (laughing) but to the judge wanted to make sure that none of those graphic crime scene photos that they have to show of like the victim, none of that is shown publicly, but the court has to see it, it's evidence. - I'm probably gonna do a big take tomorrow in Trump's mass deportation plan. And I just saw a screen shot, I grabbed it on my phone on Fox News. Some of these Democrat mayors and governors that are refusing to comply with this Trump immigration policy, they range from Katie Hobbs, the Arizona governor, J.B. Pritzker, the Illinois governor, could very well be the front runner in 2028 for the Democrats. Jared Polis is the Colorado governor, Mora Healy, Massachusetts, Brandon Johnson, the mayor of Chicago, and Michelle Wu, the mayor of Boston. These people not complying. I don't know, and we can get into the weeds probably, and I'll find the answer for the big take tomorrow. But I'm gonna love to see this tug of war between Democrats that won't listen to what Trump is ordering to occur and what his power is in regards to that. Like, why would you, with all these awful tragic stories be against getting rid of people that don't belong here and that came here illegally? Especially those that are bad citizens and bad individuals with sinister acts under their belt. I don't know how people vote for this. - Well, in the past, I mean, we can look to the Trump administration because that was the point of contention back then, with the sanctuary jurisdictions, they're breaking the law. There are already policies that say that you must, you know, if you have somebody in the custody and the law enforcement locally, or your local municipality, state level, or local level, you are required to report that to ICE. That's the law. So then what do you do if you willfully are refusing to comply with the law? And that's it, do you withhold then? - Yeah, I was gonna say you cut off that funding, yep. - I mean, I would say that's probably the quickest way to get their attention. - Yep, to that point, Nick. Boston Mayor Michelle Wu says she will not cooperate with the Trump administration's deportation. - It's what will Boston's response be if these mass deportations take place? - Yeah, look, elections have consequences. And the federal government is responsible for a certain set of actions. And cities, no individual city can reverse or override some parts of that. But what we can do is make sure that we are doing our part to protect our residents in every possible way, that we are not cooperating with those efforts that actually threaten the safety of everyone by causing widespread fear and having large-scale economic impact. Well, widespread fear, I'm gonna panic. How about the actual citizens that fund your salary, lady, that have to live in fear of potential crime, violence, assaults, rapes, murders from people that are here illegally? Why don't you think about Americans first and outsiders second? I know that's a novel concept to today's iteration of the Democrat Party. And I don't know when America first became such a terrible concept, but it's amazing. I guarantee you, all of these that I mentioned, those names of those Democrats, they're all far left wing. Like Michelle Wu, Brandon Johnson, for sure. Brandon Johnson's actually further left of Lori Lightfoot, which is an almost impossible. - But there are two different layers to this. Trump has come out and said that the first task has to be to look to catch all the criminals, right? All of the people who are wanted in their home country and escape jails and they're in gangs and that sort of thing. And so if that's their focus in the first wave of this, I think they get public support and they get support from people who are asylum seekers who have the court date on the books, whether or not they, see, there's a gray area here. And part of the gray area, in my opinion, is that the Biden-Harris administration basically invited people by the millions. They came here, some were flown here by the administration, then they received a court date, so they have the paperwork. So I suspect that, you know, they're not, the Trump administration probably cannot even deal with that situation. They'll just, because those people back then were given like six year court. They'll probably let them go through the courts and let that, you know, play out the way it should. I believe in my sense of this is that what we're talking about here is those people who are accused of criminals like the accused killer of Blake and Riley, he slipped through the cracks not once, but twice. And that's logical and that makes sense. And Tom Homan has said it, we're gonna start with the ones that we know are a danger and a threat to society and then work our way down from the most dangerous to the least dangerous to somebody that's not a threat at all that is just here illegally because it's about two e-words. It's about elections and it's about the economy with Democrats doing this. They wanna repopulate their districts and they're looking for cheap labor. Well, let me play the other one that you referenced Nick, the Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs on the use of National Guard to secure the border. - As you know, Trump has promised that he would carry out mass deportations on day one of his presidency. Your state is estimated to have a quarter of a million undocumented immigrants. Some Democrats in your state like Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego say that she wouldn't allow police to be used to carry out this plan. Would you as governor allow state police and National Guard to carry out mass deportations? - We will not be participating in misguided efforts that harm our communities and I've been incredibly clear about that. - Well, Tom Holman has said that they are, and Trump has obviously reiterated this about using the military. And Tom Holman specifically said, they'll do workplace raids. If they know where you are and you're here illegally and you're a violent offender, they're gonna show up at your job and just scoop you up. And then as Sean Ferris said, pull out the Trumpapal and fling you across the border. - I think... - Sean Ferris' words, I'm going. - As Donald Trump. - As Donald Trump. - But I think that they have to go, the Congress needs to change some of these laws because I know that Mayor Adams in New York was asked about this because Holman had made the comment, "Well, we'll go right to Rikers." Just hand them over, they're right there, then we don't have to go into the community and we know they're criminals, right? And so the problem is there, some of these laws conflict with each other, so they have to get that straight because the easiest thing to do is if somebody's in custody already, then it's not messy. You are extracting them from a facility where they are in custody and it's a very clean process, if you will, and so that now they're not like hiding among innocent people who could get hurt. - Yeah, somebody brings up the fact that she said, "Miss Guided." Like, really, really? Speaking of Tom Holman, he was on Fox News yesterday discussing what's happening at the border. I'm going to start here with Cut Five, talking about the 300,000 missing children. He's the new Trump-appointed borders are Cut Five, go, Phil. - A lot of people have wondered, how is this going to work? So how will it work? - Well, look, I think the president's been clear on the stage. As far as the deportation operation, we will prioritize public safety threats and national security threats because they oppose the big danger to the United States. He's got three rails. So we'll do deportation operation with the priorities. I just talked to you, all again, that'd be the priorities. Second thing, secure that border. Lock that border down and catch release and secure the border. The third rail is we got over 300,000 missing children. That over half a million children have been trafficking to the United States. This administration released them to unbed its sponsors and they can't find 300,000. And based on my three and a half decades, some of these children are forced labor. We already found some in forced labor. Some are in forced extra trafficking. Some of them are pedophiles. We need to save these children. That's going to be a third rail. - So he's actually looking to actually look out for and protect children, yet he gets vilified for the Separation Act where, oh, are you really going to separate parents from kids? And he's like, well, no, we'll just ship everybody out, which is great. And then the pushback is the cost of this. I forget what the number was. It was $8 million a day or $88 million or something we talked about it a week or two ago and played you one of the clips. Yeah, unfortunately, that's the cost of doing business, right? Do you put a price tag on your safety? I mean, how much would Lake and Riley's parents pay for their daughter to be alive today? I don't know that you can put a price tag on that, right? - No. - You can't. - Home and also, this is Cut Sixville. Home and also, I mean, we talk a lot about the gangs coming in from Venezuela, Haiti, all of those places, but we forget the 46,000 Chinese nationals that have also crossed over the border. - That's right. - Home and address that military age, men. - Yep. - Cut Six, yeah. - Tom, talk to us about how no other country in the world has had its border abused by illegal aliens like the United States. - Absolutely not. We are in a world that I never thought we'd be in, Liz. Border Patrol has arrested since Joe Biden's been in the White House. They have arrested people from 181 different countries. That's almost every country in the world. And 46,000 Chinese nationals that have males at military age, there's no way 46,000 Chinese did not leave China without the coordination and consent of the Chinese government. It just doesn't happen. So we got a lot of national security threats in this nation that we got to find. We got to get them out here quickly. - Well, we're truly the melting pod because we have one for every... (laughing) - I just did a quick search on DuckDuckGo. The United Nations recognizes 195 countries. There's 181 that have come into our country under Joe Biden. - I believe. - 181 out of 195. Let me see what that percentage is. - Nope, just because. - At least we're consistent. 93% of the globe has come through our border. - Sounds believable. - When you look up with this 300,000 migrant children missing, your initial, that's why DuckDuckGo did it, right? To get down to it, there has been an investigation ever since August when a whistleblower, this is a Department of Health and Human Services worker, had spoken out and said that essentially what she was saying was the Biden administration was responsible for stripping away the vetting process. And this woman spoke out as a whistleblower because she said that she was forced to hand over children to quote traffickers, members of transnational criminal organizations, bad actors, bad, bad, bad people. And she was so upset about it that she risked losing her job. She's a federal employee who spoke out about this. They then determined there was an investigation and it's ongoing, 291,000 children that they didn't have this vetting process. They don't know where they are. - Unbelievable, it's just absolutely stunning. 855-839-1210, let's grab Matt in South Jersey before we continue with a cut sheet. Matt, you're on talk radio at 1210. - Hey, just real quick, I want to say like the media paints the Democrats as compassionate and all this, but it's got nothing to do with that. They literally just want their food cooked for free. They want their long cut for free. They want their house fixed for free. And it works, so that's pretty much it. It doesn't matter how many people die or killed or run over any of that. They're gonna get what they want. - Well, it's twofold, like I said, it's about the elections. It's about redistricting. I gave you the numbers of the illegal immigration population percentage increase in the seven swing states since 2021, it's up two, three, four hundred percent in those battleground states. And then yeah, there's the economic side. And some of it has to do with the fact that there's a lot of American and there's a lot of hardworking Americans, but there's also a lot of lazy Americans out there that think certain jobs are beneath them. And I am always willing to give credit to those of Hispanic and Latino descent. They work their ass off. They have a work, they have an entrepreneurial spirit that I think a lot of lazy Americans do not. They are the kind of people that will get a second or a third job to make ends meets where, you know, Gen Z and millennials, they go on TikTok and they cry that they have to work nine to five. - Yeah, and they're family people. - Yes. - Family people. And that's just to his point that there are people coming to this country who, quite frankly, were invited by Biden Harris, right? So they're here, they got their court date and all they wanna do is work and live out the American dream. And so that's what's, it's not fair that the current administration just stopped with the vetting. So they make, you know, and I hope that everybody doesn't paint with a broad brush, because you cannot do that with individuals. There are some who are working very hard. They come for all the right reasons. And so the vetting processes we go through the courts should, you know, they should be able to take advantage of that, but the problem is we have all these people, we don't even know where they are. - Right. - But I mean, they supposedly gave them a court date. And none of these kids that we mentioned, the 291,000, the problem is they weren't even given the proper paperwork. They haven't shown up. They were supposed to show up for court dates. I mean, it is a hot mess. - The fake Ramaswami and Elon Musk will head the government efficiency task force or whatever, whatever they're being called. - Good luck with that. - By the way, all right, I have to play a fun game with you guys. Who will be the first to fall out of favor with Trump? - Will it be Elon Musk, The Fake, or J.D. Vance? - There's actually reports that Elon got into a superheated meltdown at Mar-a-Lago with one of Trump's big donors. - Yeah, yeah. - I could see Musk just because Musk has more F.U. money than anybody else. - Well, I mean, he's traveling with him like he's the Vice President. - I know. It's amazing. - Well, that's what-- - Did the Trump's adopt him? - He's in their family photos. - It's really amazing. - But did you guys notice-- - Trump is gonna get tired of this really quickly. I'm just telling you guys. - Did you guys notice that J.D. Vance, was he there Saturday at MSG? 'Cause I didn't see that he was. - Who? - Vance. - Vance was not. - No, he was getting his eyebrows done. - Vance was not. That's a very, no, that's a very interesting point. Like Mike Johnson was there, like weasily-- - Yeah, Tulsi-- - Tulsi was there, Vivek was there, Elon was there, Trump Jr was there, Triple H and Stephanie were there? - I was there. - But-- - Place to be. - Where was J.D. Vance? - It's a great idea. - He's like the Elon Musk is like the new Vice President. - J.D. is running up his 2028 agenda. (laughing) - It's amazing. All right, Vivek was on Fox News Sunday with Maria Bockaromo talking about, you know, what their plans are for this. And he's saying that entire government agencies will be deleted. I love that. - Yes, I absolutely love that. - Get out. - All right, play a Vivek, please, rise of cake. - Are you expecting to close down entire agencies? Like President Trump has talked about the Department of Education, for example. Are you gonna be closing down departments? - We expect mass reductions. We expect certain agencies to be deleted outright. We expect mass reductions in force in areas of the federal government that are bloated. We expect massive cuts among federal contractors and others who are overbilling the federal government. So yes, we expect all of the above and I think people will be surprised by I think how quickly we're able to move with some of those changes given the legal backdrop the Supreme Court has given us. - You've got what has been called a deep state. You've got people who have been career bureaucrats in place right now. Didn't President Biden put in plans to ensure that you're not gonna be able to fire those people at all? How do you get around that? And, you know, I asked Joni Ernst, are you for term limits? She says, yes, I am for term limits. As long as the people around me are also for term limits. That's not in place right now. So how do you get rid of those people who are dug in? - Well, a lot of what's happened is President Biden has made a lot of changes trying to entrench the administrative state. The Supreme Court has slapped them on the risk numerous times. So we're working with the legal landscape here that is historic. You think about a president of the United States like Donald Trump elected with the mandate he's been given. Both chambers of Congress belong into Republicans, a six to three conservative majority in the Supreme Court. Maria, if we don't downsize the federal government now, it's never gonna happen in the future as well. So this is a historic opportunity. We're not actually going to squander this, but I think part of the key is to move quickly, to move effectively. I think that mass deregulation that I talked about earlier, that gives us the industrial logic to then make cuts to that bureaucracy and moving quickly as our objective. - Have you thought about moving some of these departments or agencies out of Washington? - It's funny you bring up this point. Yes is the answer, but here's why. They'll say, well, what happens to the people who live in Washington DC? Here's the dirty little secret in the federal bureaucracy today. Most people don't even show up to work. So if you require most of those federal bureaucrats to just say, like normal working Americans, you come to work five days a week. A lot of them won't want to do that. And by the way, that creates a logic for many of those agencies being outside of DC in the first place. So these are, again, examples. It's a great point you just brought up. So sweeping changes were able to make quickly. - You could move the energy department to Texas or to Pennsylvania. You could move agriculture somewhere else. Is that what you're thinking? - Well, look, I think that, yes, absolutely. But I think even bigger picture than that many of these agencies should be downsized wherever they are. And for whatever does remain, move many of them out to be where they're more accountable to the people. And by the way, if you have many voluntary reductions in force of the workforce in the federal government along the way, great. That's a good side effect of those policies as well. And so our goal is not to be cruel, by the way, to the individual federal employees. Most of them, I do want to say this, are individually good people. And we want to be compassionate and generous in how we handle this transition. But the real issue is there's just too many of them. We don't need 4 million, and we shouldn't have 4 million civil servants who aren't even elected or can't be removed from their positions. It's anti-democratic. - We gotta jump, but when you look from 30,000 feet, I know you're just getting into this now, what agency or department is the most bloated, would you say? - That's a tough competition. It's across the administrative state. President Trump's talked extensively about areas like the Department of Education. Obviously, those kinds of agencies shouldn't even exist and should be returned to the states. But it's a culture, Maria, that's pervaded the entire federal government of hiring people who have no accountability to everyday Americans. And I think that's what's gonna change when you take this new effort, a doge at the Department of Government Efficiency. It's about efficiency as much as it is about restoring accountability. And this time, actions are gonna speak louder than words, and I'm excited to get started in January. - I love all of this, Vivek, I really do. - All sounds good. Now, let's get to work and get it done. I gave you the big take yesterday where Vivek said the end date is July 4th, 2026. So about a year and a half from now when America celebrates their 250th birthday, the New York Post, can I give a couple of examples of the ridiculous spending that doge will eliminate? So the New York Post with a story, here's where Elon Musk can start cutting federal spending from transgender monkeys to DEI and checks the dead people. Did you know in 2023, that the federal government shipped $1.3 billion in checks to dead people from the IRS, Medicare and assorted veteran groups? That is according to real clear investigations. Behind the bars, prison benefits, prisoners thought to still be free and out of work, received $171 million in unemployment payments or social security in 2023. Russian cat research in 2021, the National Institute of Health, the NIH awarded $550,000 to a Russian lab performing experiments on cats, including removing part of their brains and seeing if they could still walk on treadmills. What the hell are we doing with our money? 50 million-- - Where's Pina? - Yeah, I know, right? 50 million dollar monkey business. Did you know that the NIH includes $33 million to a firm that runs, quote, "Monkey Island," which is a colony of around 3,000 primaries, or excuse me, primates, sent to research labs. Additionally, NIH grants totaling $4 million funded a study on monkeys and gambling. I don't know, maybe they're reading the stockers' fan duel ads. - Thank you. - Jesus. - Thank you. - All this stuff. - Dr. Debra Burks was on one of the Sunday morning shows. - Oh, the scarf. - The scarf talking about, and she had a lovely scarf on, by the way. Lovely scarf. She likes the scarf stuff. - Nice scarf. - She likes the scarf. - She likes the scarf. - So just put your scarf on. - Yeah. - Scar, what a scarf. - Scar, but she was on there talking about the appointment of RFK Junior, and she's all four, you know, yeah, she served in the Trump administration, but I think kind of fell out of favor there pretty quickly, right, if I remember correctly. - Yeah, totally, yeah. - 2020 wasn't a great year for her. So she doesn't, you know, there's no real reason for her, I guess, to stick up for RFK Junior if she doesn't have to. And she says, quote, that the HHS Secretary needs to, for transparency, like we need more transparency in that agency cut one go. - This is the reality of America. And so what I'm hoping is he brings his transparency for all Americans, and we really start to tackle these issues one by one by one. I think everybody across America wants to have healthy kids that they know will grow up and not end up with the complications of diabetes or heart disease. - It was very hard for Michelle Obama when she was first slated to get any of that done. And it might be hard for lawmakers who come from some of those agricultural states to vote against their own interests in terms of the farm subsidies and the like. - Well, we're not talking about eliminating good food. We're talking about using all of their ingredients in a way that is more healthy for Americans. And I think that's what people are calling for now. Europe did it years ago. And I think we're capable of doing that. We are really smart, high levels of technology. We can make food tasty without a lot of these additives because we can see that other groups are doing it in a small way. So we're not talking about eliminating the need for weeds and grains. We're talking about putting those together in a healthy way. - Mm-hmm. - I wanna ask you as well about-- - Call the first thing. - Call the first thing. - The things he said about vaccines is you-- - Does she, 'cause I do wanna get back into this, does she have the same voice affliction that RFK Jr. does with? What's up with her voice? - Oh, I didn't notice that. I was staying at the scarf. - Yeah, that's lovely. - By the way, Dawn, is the scarf a good look? Are you pro-scarf? - I sure. - Yeah. - I don't know. She likes to say, it's her thing. It's like her trademark. - It is like Cindy Crawford's Freckle. It's like Drake Stocker's like modern mullet hair. You know what I mean? - Yeah, we are brand, right? - You know? - Yeah. - We'll go talk around to you. - I love you. - I'll be back. - The Stalker's Scholar. - What she said in there though, and I wanna get back to, so if you can back it up for just a couple of seconds, 'cause I wanted to get back to the vaccine question, but if you actually listen to what she's saying, she, the task that they have at hand, not just R.K. Jr., but Vivek and Elon, like this is, you are talking decades and decades and decades of bureaucratic rot that you need to sift through. This is not gonna be an easy task. - No. - You don't think R.K. Jr. is gonna get pushbacks from the big food lobby and the big corn syrup lobby and all of this other crap that, you know, funds are these days, even if Elon and Vivek, you know, they trim some fat from departments that don't need to have 70 employees, whack it down to 10, you save money there, and then you take some money of the agencies that you completely delete in his words, they're gonna delete entire groups, and then you reallocate some of those resources, why not reallocate that towards food? I asked the question kind of tongue in cheek yesterday out loud, well, if fruit loops in one country has 19 ingredients and fruit loops in another country has three or 11, wouldn't it be fair to come to the conclusion that that product is cheaper to make with less ingredients? So why can't we save money and be healthier? - Yeah. - And then when you factor in Europe and Canada and these other nations, and she was talking there about the technology, so we have the money, we have the resources, we have the technology, and we have a desire for a lot of Americans to one, it would extend their life to expectancy. Why is this such a, and why are people against it? That's what I don't understand. You see so many people that are out of shape, and I say, "Hey, Bobby Kennedy's gonna..." Oh, that cooke, well dude, you're like a twinkie away from having your toes cut off. Maybe you should actually listen to this. - Tose, I think that what we're about to see, that what is teed up here, and I was looking at a list of like the most famous swamp monster movies, because all of these individuals now in a new administration, they have to take on the swamp, and that means big money, big money, and they've been around for a long time, these are bureaucrats who love power, and they wield a ton of power, and so you have to find them, and then you have to, how do you clean up the swamp? I mean, that's really what we're talking about here. And so when we think about this, it's the lobbyists, right? The food lobbyists obviously have had a ton of control, like back in the day when Michelle Obama was first lady and she came out and said, "Oh, I'm gonna have an organic garden, "the first one at the White House, "and we're gonna make school lunches healthier." And so then, what did they do? They snuck in there, the lobbyists all got busy, and they made French fries count as a vegetable, okay? And so they said, "Oh, good for her, more vegetables." But then they went and made sure that things like unhealthy French fries and fried food, as long as it's a fried vegetable and a potato is. Do you know what I'm saying? - Yeah, you're a hundred percent right, you're a hundred percent right, and they just kind of, the Obama administration just kind of dropped it, right? - Yep, never heard of it. They just, boop, didn't talk about it anymore. - And I know I'm the first one on this show, always the gripe about the price of groceries. It drives me insane. That being said, you can actually eat healthy and clean and do it relatively affordably. I mean, if you just go on, I have a stretch where I do four or five days a week, where it's egg whites, blueberries, and a banana for breakfast, turkey for lunch, and then like salad, chicken, or fish for dinner. And you can pull it off, like you can definitely stay on a budget, especially if you're eating smaller portions. And one of the things I always thought about healthy people that was fascinating, if you ever talk to pro athletes or college athletes or anybody that's just really into fitness, you know what they say food is for them? It's fuel, fuel, yep, it's fuel, yep. It's just to keep you going. - Yep. - It's not to just splurge on and gluttony and just do what I do once a month and eat seven slices of pizza on a Friday. - I mean, there's-- - Food is medicine as well. And that was the argument with the Amish. That the Amish said we have people come from far and wide who have had all of these diagnoses and all this prescription medication and they come to our farm and they eat our food. It's homegrown food. It doesn't have all this processing and chemicals and they learn about it. And they're saying it's like a miracle. It's not a miracle. It's just that they're eating healthy stuff. - Yeah, there's no, it's a scientific fact that the more protein you eat, the more energy you have and the more, you know what I mean? Like it's just better for you. It's not, you know, you can hear all these studies. Well, this is high in cholesterol and this is that. And the other, it is a scientific fact that the more protein you eat, the healthier you are. - Yeah, and then, but you also can't do that. I see a lot of people that do this. I'm gonna have a salad today. Okay, that's great. And then you had cheese and you had ranch dressing and you had croutons. But if you stick it, if you leave it to just the veggies and some oil and vinegar, you're gonna be okay. - I had Greek dressing. - I loved Greek. - You ever have gazebo? - No. - Gazebo room, Greek dressing? - I do, it's the stone, stone, stone kitchen or something like that. - Yeah, Greek dressing's phenomenal. - Okay. All right, can we play the, 'cause then, this is Deborah Birx on Face The Nation. Talk about RFK Junior. What's her nuts? What's her name? The Face The Nation lady? Who is that? - Oh, that's, she's on her way out, right? The contract? - No, it's the other one. - No, it's on it. - Margaret Brenner. - Margaret Brenner, thank you. She asked about the vaccine situation, the vaccine comments by RFK Junior, and this was her response to that. Go. - Out eliminating the needs for weeds and grains, we're talking about-- - See the RFK. - Doing those together in a healthy way. - I think. I wanna ask you as well about some of his, the things he said about vaccines. As you know, the vaccine vaccination rates are declining in America. He said things like restoring transparency around them. It's not really clear what that means. Why do you think there's a decline in vaccination? I think there's two pieces to it. I think when we talk about things in public health, we don't acknowledge the concerns. Because when my children went to school, there was maybe one in a thousand kids with autism diagnosed autism. Now it's three per hundred. So every mom is seeing a classroom of kindergarteners where one of the children has autism. That's scary to moms and dads. They wanna know why. So it's not good enough for us to just say, vaccines don't cause autism. It's us finding what is the cause of autism? - Well it would absolutely agree that it is ridiculous that there isn't a lot of research and established causation of autism. But what he has said in the past is that autism is caused by vaccines. And there's no scientific basis for that conclusion as I understand it. - That's correct. And so that's why when he talks about transparency, I'm actually excited that in a Senate hearing, he would bring forward his data and the questions that come from the senators would bring forth their data. What I know for sure is he's a very smart man who can bring his data and his evidence base forward. And we can have a discussion that many Americans believe already is a problem. So until we can have that transparency and that open discussion from both sides, I know the members have incredible staffers who will bring great questions from their constituents. And that hearing would be a way for Americans to really see the data that you're talking about that we can't see that causation right now, but what is causing it? And so you're absolutely right. Addressing what the cause is will be critical. And I think what has confused people is we weren't clear about what COVID vaccines do and don't. And so now people are questioning, well, what do my childhood vaccines do and don't? And they don't understand that some of the vaccines that their children are getting protect them from both disease and create herd immunity. And some of them that they get are just for their child, like H. flu and pneumavax to prevent their child from getting very serious illness. And we're just not explaining all of this correctly. - Well, you know, it's interesting because you talk about transparency from big pharma. You talk about liability and the way they operate without impunity is just maddening and frustrating for so many Americans. But what I like about Bobby Kennedy is that he's just a very inquisitive person. And again, he's not a science guy. He's not a medical guy, right? He's a lawyer. So you look at his willingness to bring up the questions and look, yeah, he's wrong on some things. He's right on others and there's gray area everywhere else in between. But what I hated about the other vaccine skepticism, vaccine hesitancy, vaccine denialism throughout the pandemic was if you didn't want the COVID shot, which a lot of people did not want to get. And now at this point, I think I saw a stat only one in six in the healthcare industry that work in the industry are getting the latest COVID booster is that you were labeled anti-vax for simply rejecting the COVID shot, which is so unfair considering many of us have had vaccines since we were born for other things that are required as a toddler, as an infant, all the way, you know, up through your adult years. But what I would just like to get to moving forward is let's have the conversation. We're having the conversation on health and food. So we can talk about big food and all these terrible ingredients, but it's taboo to talk about big pharma and wonder why autism rates have tripled from one in, what was it, a hundred or one in a thousand to now three in a hundred or three in a thousand? So what are you so scared of? - So, okay, a few things. And a couple of years ago, and I have to have them back, there is major research on autism. There is a gentleman, a major researcher right in New Jersey at Rutgers who for 20 plus years has dedicated his life to autism research, and they've not gotten to the bottom of it. There's something else here and that is that back in the day, when Deborah Birx is talking about growing up, nobody had the word autism. So people who were perhaps on the quote unquote spectrum, they, in some ways, these terms like autism, I'm not crazy about these terms because you look back to a monastery, a doctor of monastery from Italy way back a hundred years ago and what she did with children. So Elon Musk, somebody with Asperger's, you know what I mean? So part of this is not viewing people through putting them in a box like autism because it depends on where you are in the spectrum. I will also say this about RFK Jr. Anybody who quoted Andrew Wakefield, who by all accounts, is that a guy from the UK, a fraud, he was a fraudster, he was completely discredited, he was a former doctor and he was somebody who was involved in a lawsuit. And for the gains of a lawsuit, manipulated research to make it look, make it look like the MMR vaccine and vaccines have the possibility of causing something like autism. The Lancet then published the research and everybody freaked out. I know when my boys were little, 'cause David was born in 2006. I mean, we were all freaking out about this. The Lancet had put it out there. Everybody was talking about it. This guy, you know, went to jail and whatnot, it's a horrible thing that he did to our society. So if RFK Jr. or anybody back in the day was quoting the Lancet, they had every right to. My belief from what I've read, RFK Jr. walked that back, just like everybody else walked that back and said, whoa, this was based on a fraudulent guy who did something unthinkable. And so now we have to deal with that. But when we talk about COVID vaccines, the truth is the COVID to me is not a true immunization. - No. - I think it's about education. Of course everybody should get the MMR, should get the polio, talk to your doctor. They can separate it out if you're nervous about your kitty getting like all these vaccinations at once. - You should have seen the signs yesterday. I had to pick up my wife's prescription at CVS in the back of the pharmacy. They had a sign up for like seven different things. It was flu shot, COVID shot. What is it? Tdap or T. - Tdapness. - Yeah. - I was like, oh my God. - Tdap. - It's like a buffet. Why don't you just roll my, just jab me with what anything you got? - So some of it, I just think people need to be educated. What is a true important immunization such as polio? - Right. - Everybody should get the polio. - Measles. - Measles, right? - Moms, rubella. - Yeah, some of those things are really good to get. - Mm-hmm. - But I think the problem is now there's so much, there's a lack of trust. So we need to deal with this, have the education. But it's sad that that guy back in the, right around 2000, I want to say maybe, oh, it was 1998, he published it and the lance it picked it up. - Yeah, but you can see why people are skeptical of this after the pandemic. Then you have these elitists in the media, lecturing you on what you should put into your body. And as soon as they go to a commercial break, the first add up is a pharmaceutical ad. - Yeah, it's true. - Right. - Yeah. - Like, sorry if I am a little hesitant. - Look, we need to have these discussions. - Sure. - And she's 100%, she's 100% right when she says, when these hearings happen, RFK Junior will bring his research, the Senate, the committee will bring their research. And like, let's have the discussion. I'm all for this because guys, I hate to tell you, the road we're going down is not working. We're all sick, we're all fat, we're all unhealthy. So whatever we're doing is not working. So let's have the discussion as to how we can correct this for the next generation. Because it might be too late for us. - No, it's too late for me, I'm getting 20 years anyway. - It's too late for you. That's why I don't know why you're eating healthy. You might as well, you know, go out and listen, glory. - Why am I getting mad at the fact that I got post nasal drip right now? I should be ecstatic. It's the only thing I have right now is a little bit of a drainage. - But I'm so happy that we are actually having this discussion and I hope that real results come from it. But I worry that it won't because, you know. - Part of this crag is not, I know that some of the vaccines, they're concerns about autoimmune and et cetera, but some of this is just that people drive in their car and they drive the kids and they drop them off to point A and point B kids don't play out in the yard anymore. So part of this is just that we need to get up and move. - Yep. - Get up, walk, run, play games, new stuff. - That's gonna be fat looking too. - True. - Get on your bicycle. - If JFK was not wrong. - Yeah, we're not, we don't exercise enough. We don't get outside enough and we eat crappy stuff. You know what I mean? - And then you do what I do. You get on the treadmill for 35 minutes and then you go home and have a cocktail. (laughing) The hell would I just do in my life? - But what I'm saying is that you can enjoy yourself. Like no, we're not saying that you shouldn't eat McDonald's. We're not saying you shouldn't eat, you know, some of the stuff. Just do it in moderation and just get out there and exercise and do other things and don't live on McDonald's. You know, I know what's gonna call it. Uber Eats and all the stuff is, makes it easy 'cause we just sit there and Nate, Nate, Bercowski or whatever that guy is has this great bit about Uber Eats about how he's like, he's like, I'm so lazy that I got McDonald's from thing and a Dairy Queen milkshake and my biggest concern was them arriving at the same time. (laughing) Like I was cheating on one, like I was like, I need a separate car to get me a milkshake or a delivered from Dairy Queen. - Yeah, I'd say, I'd say, and then you're paying an arm and a leg to do that by the way. - Exactly. - These delivery charges are just outrageous. - They are. - But true story, so the wife and the girls were working for my in-laws up at Chris Kindlemore in Bethlehem this past weekend. So Friday night, I'm like, I'm not making anything. I'm gonna order pizza. You know, it calls, I swear to God. - This is another one of my things. Here we go. - We gotta make pizza affordable again. - Oh man, Kale. - Just make your own. - I might have to. - Yeah. - I ordered from a local place. Now I got three toppings. I went nuts. I got pepperoni, onions and fresh garlic, okay? - $44.92. For a large three topping pizza. - Wow, really? - I could have went and got a ribeye and a strip-stake giant for that part. - I was gonna say, where are you ordering for it? - Don't, don't. - Not the name of it. - Just a local place on Germantown Pike. A mom and a four. So it was plus tax, delivery, shipping, all these ridiculous charges, three toppings. I almost wanted to pull a Kevin McAllister from Home Alone who said, leave it on the doorstep and get the hell out of here. - Man, that is-- - $44.92. Will that be cash or card? - Is that with tip? - That's with tip. - Okay. - Yeah, it was like 36, 37. - For one pizza? - With three toppings. - Oh. - But 44 bucks? - You should have taken off the pepperoni. - Yeah, you're right. - Yeah, that processed meat. - But Jesus. - The, I just was looking up auto-immune and allergies and stuff like that. Part of it is we don't, kids don't play in dirt. - No. - That's one of the things, kids, like I remember as a kid, we played in dirt every day. - What's wrong with playing in dirt? - Kids don't play in dirt? - Oh, yes. - There's nothing more now. - Right? - Yes, you're hungry. - They should play in the dirt. - No. Yesterday, I told my wife I'm like, I'm like, get our son outside. - Get him in the dirt. - I was doing something for work and he was rummaging through the dirt. I'm like, this is good. This is exactly what we need. Skin some knees. - Yep. - Fall off your bike. - What about outside for two hours like the dog? (laughing) - Getting in trouble for God's sakes. - Speaking of the dog, we need to take a wee wee break. - What should we do? And I definitely have to go. I heard it's bad if you hold it. - Yeah, eight, five, five, eight, three, nine, 12, 10. We'll come back, wrap up the hour with your calls. We've got a big three from Dawn on the way.

Good morning. Make it sound like I'm really old now, quarter century, wow. (laughing) But I guess that's true. You know, I wanted to say, you know, I'm applauding several Berkses idea of transparency and if we're going to be transparent, let's first take a look at the 75,000 pages of document size are submitted to the FDA for emergency use authorization for the COVID vaccine. That'd be a good start. I think the erosion of public health in particular with the COVID vaccine is that we chose a one-size-fits-all mentality for both those at high risk, maybe old people over 65 or 70 with comorbid conditions versus children 12 to 18. There was a risk of myocarditis, which was shown to be elevated in young men. Why did we still give them two doses? There's a lot of questions. Why do we change the definition of vaccine for the purposes of defining what the COVID vaccine was? The emergency use authorization for children and pediatrics in the COVID vaccine was a mixed result from the FDA committee and yet the FDA still approved it and is given as part of the normal shot routine for young children. I think that's appalling without a discussion and without thinking. And then finally, I'd say we talk about if it's COVID, Pax-Lovin and it was a great little term, but if it's COVID and you've never had the COVID vaccine, then maybe Pax-Lovin because that product wasn't studied in patients that had the vaccine first. So you really have to look at what the package insert says, what it really means and what the real benefit is. And I think we've lost that idea of a risk benefit discussion with our physician and it's going directly to take it where you're a skeptic and I think that's wrong. Yeah, take it or we'll shun you and publicly shame you for not following what the experts tell us to do. I love the fact that you talked about it as this one size fits all mentality, which again, like during the pandemic and especially now with hindsight being 2020 and even right now, I have no issue if you want the COVID shot, no matter what your age or health status is. That's up to you, it's none of my business. But I understand if you're 65, if you're 270 pounds, if you are dealing with diabetes or cancer, that COVID vaccine, that booster is more beneficial for you than it is for me as a healthy 40 year old, for the most part, and then compared to a 12 or a 13 year old kid that probably does not need it, right? So again, it's not one size fits all. So I'm glad you bring that up, Brian. Let me, by the way, just read this tweet. This is from Brian Ramona. He's one of our traffic anchors at KYW 1060. He says, you guys, he tags all three of us on Twitter. He says, you're on point with a healthy eating discussion. Two years ago, we started a clean eating plan and I lost nearly 60 pounds in five months. - Wow, Brian, it's great, man. - But he strayed and succumbed to his sugar addiction and gained almost all of it back. Sugar is as addicting as cocaine. - It is. It's, according to this, I don't know if this is accurate, but he sent us a gift. Drinking one soda a day is the equivalent to 39 pounds of sugar per year. - Wow. - Well, I think to Brian's point, what is the sweetener in soda? - Yeah. - And so that's, even if it's a sparitame, that has, you know, they're a neurologist. I told you the story about, you know, my mom, where they said, do not have these artificial sweeteners. They're horrible for your body. But then even the artificial, or the sweeteners that are, you know, it's not sugar anymore. It's not from the sugar cane. It's this highly processed syrup that they use. - Yep. - And so it's heated a certain way. It's processed a certain way that's not good for us anymore. So my suggestion is, even though it doesn't taste as good, we tried this to get one of those things where you make your own soda. I don't know if you've ever tried that. - Yeah, yeah, the soda machines, soda stream or whatever. - Yeah, yeah. - But you use like natural sweeteners or even oranges or stuff like that. I don't know, just drink water. - I was just gonna say drink water, drink a little wine, have coffee. - Yeah. - You'll be fine. - That's right. - You might have a lot of reflux, but, you know? - Take everything else out of your diet. - Yep, maybe a little tequila. - Well, yeah. - I'm telling that. - I'm probably not a generous sport, but don't mix it. - Yeah, exactly. - All right, eight, five, five, eight, three, nine, 12, 10. If you wanna jump in, Dawn's big three on the other side, and then all of our typical nine o'clock hour goodies as we continue, it's killing company, on Talk Radio 1210WPHD. - Yeah, and we're just talking about making dinner, and that adds a lot of pressure, right? You're busy, you're at work, you're running around, you're trying to live your life, and at the same time, I wanna make sure that I make healthy meals for my family.

On talk radio, 1210 WPHT and the free odyssey app. Today in New York, potentially the end of the criminal case, the conviction for Trump in New York, so that'll be a story worth watching as the day develops, and of course, what is going on here in the state of Pennsylvania, despite what the Pennsylvania Supreme Court has already said when it pertains to Bob Casey and Dave McCormick, all of that still on the table, all things that we are keeping an eye on for you. 855-839-1210, we'll get to some of those other stories coming up shortly, but right now, let's get to Adon Stenzel in Big Three at nine. It's the Big Three at nine on Kaitlin' Company. Big Three at nine this Tuesday morning, we'll get to the big recount and the news within that, but why don't you get to this story out of New Jersey? We obviously had talked a lot about the New Jersey wildfires and the great efforts of those firefighters trying to contain those fires, but there's another incendiary situation, a controversy that has broken with the word that in Cherry Hill, they erroneously released the names of grade school age students who, and this was in response to an open records act request, wanting to know how many kids did not take part in these sex ed classes. New Jersey, this has been a huge issue with regard to sex education, what they teach, graphic material, and some parents view that it's too graphic for certain age kids who are younger than fifth graders. You're thinking about your daughter, your little girl's age is big. - My daughters are both 10 and in fifth grade, and to my knowledge, there is no sex education at their elementary school. - And so imagine if you're that parent and you just said, you know, for a multitude of reasons, I'm just going to opt out or opt into the classes, that's how they had worded it. But imagine if your name then is, your child's name is publicly released on this list. - Think about how obnoxious that is, considering we don't release names of criminals that are juveniles. - Great point. - How many times have you given us a news story where the suspect is 16 or 17, and we don't know the identity because of shield laws or whatever they would call those. Ridiculous. - Yeah, and so the parents are just learning about this. I know they're superintendent, condemned it, acknowledged that they made a mistake, but you're talking about 82 children, you know, and their parents being notified of this learning of this. And then, you know, in one case there's, you know, there are parents now speaking out about this, but this was a, you know, a parent of a six-year-old little boy, for example, and they find that their name is on this list because they didn't feel that for their six-year-old that this, you know, some of these are graphic, they didn't want it, and maybe for religious purposes or just parental reasons, they don't have to explain. These are parental rights. And so this many say they feel that this is a real violation. - It is, I would just, and the excuse, the defense, it was accidentally released. How does it accidentally get released? - I don't buy accidental anything. - No. - I don't. I feel like people are just like, oops, and let me just submit this, sorry, hit the wrong button. - It didn't mean to hit the hard way about that. - Yeah, there's no way, or no way. - Tricky send button. - They're trying to send a message, you know what I mean? They're trying to, they have to be. - Come on. - In my opinion, again, this is just my opinion, but it appears that they're trying to send a message. - Right? - Yes. - I mean, that's how it looks, the parents are furious. - I don't ever recall as a grade school. I think the first time we had any sex education was either sixth or seventh grade. So I would have been 12 or 13. - Yeah, I think sixth grade for us, yeah. - Yeah, it's somewhere in there. It's fifth, six, it's usually fifth or sixth grade. - I remember it was, and I've told the story before, but my parents were up in arms because we learned, they taught us how to put a condom on a banana. - I feel like that's a good, that's a fine lesson to have. - For our fifth or sixth or seventh grade? - Sure, you know what I mean? Look, look, we had a, there was a girl in seventh or eighth grade in my class that was pregnant. - Oh, wow. - Yeah, which is, it was just a use in order. - I mean, I, well, no, it was, it was the, I think her baby daddy was the same age and I think it was an older gentleman. I mean, who knows? - She's 13 year olds. - Oh, I mean, look. - On the bright side, your kid's an adult by the time you're 30. - Look, I grew up in the stakes, I could have been her father, I don't know. I'm just kidding, I'm just kidding. - It's all, and I live in the south. - It's a joke. - Condom on a banana, that was an actual exercise you guys did. - It was. - What school district was this? - No, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna out anybody, but yeah, yeah, it was. - And what grade was this? - I wanna say sixth grade, maybe. - Imagine sixth grade stocker coming home and asking Pobs, say, dad, what's a boner? (laughing) - Pops, this is coffee out. What the hell are they teaching that kid? - It's a bonus. - Yeah, thank you. - That sucks the ticket, it's a bonus. - Yeah, it's just too young. You know, I'm not against like the basic sex education of male genitalia being taught, female genitalia. Like we all did that, that's, you know, health is part of your visit, health class. Remember the gym teacher would teach and then he'd teach you how to do the shuttle run. Remember the shuttle run? Remember the visit and reach? - I can't be the only one that had this in sex ed. I cannot be the only one. - I never recall being shown how to put a condom on a banana. - Okay. - No. - What about a broomstick? - No, none of that. (laughing) They were very cool, they were very, it was very proper. - It's very, yeah. - Even in this day and age, I don't think a parent will be outraged with what I was taught in sixth or seventh grade. - I remember like a lot of the boys in our class were like, banana, huh? Wait, they seem to think a lot of us. - Yeah. Was it a little banana or a big banana for my phone? - Don't make me start reciting the scene from "Bar City Blues." Anybody ever saw that one, you know what I'm talking about? - But I think part of the issue here is that some of these sex ed classes for little kids teach about all the different types of relations that one can have and all the different genders and sexes and getting all of this stuff. - Oh, of course, yeah. - Wow, it's like, jeez, to your point of kids coming home and saying, what's, then fill in the blank? I think people are just saying, whoa, let's just back this up. - Yeah, this is a completely different curriculum compared to 30 years ago. - Amen. - Yeah. - I know that-- - Well, that part is, but I mean, I was in sixth grade 30 years ago. - Well, yeah, yeah. - So-- - Right. - And if today-- - It's not that different. - If they were doing condoms on bananas or other pieces of fruit, I wouldn't have a huge issue. - Why, like, I'm, look, look-- - Pick your fruit. - Looky. - Yeah, sixth grade might be way too young. I'm not discounting that, but like, I mean, is it really, is it really out of line to learn how to put a condom on? - No, I don't think that, I'm not really totally-- - Especially in the 90s when AIDS was running rampant. You know what I mean? Like, seriously, it was a different time. - That was 1991 or 1992, whenever it was, when the AIDS epidemic was crazy. - Well, it took off with Patrick Johnson. - Yes, yes. - That story, HIV, yeah, yeah. - On number two, I will get to the recount headline, but number two, and Jimmy Kelly sent me this as well, that remember in 2021, it was during the pandemic when we were all eating a lot of comfort food, and we heard that PepsiCo, which is the maker of Aunt Jemima, syrup, a very famous, you know, syrup that we put on our pancakes and so on, from back in the day, well, that they were discontinuing it because of, they felt that it was a kind of a racist history to it, and then we've seen a movement, so now they call it Pearl Millen Company table syrup. It's not even, I don't even think it's real maple syrup, quite frankly, but it goes back to the days of a woman who modeled for this, who was actually named Nancy Green, she was a real person. A lot of people say, why didn't you just name it after the real person? And so there were these pushes to bring it all back. Well, I think this is false, it's trending, but I was trying to look it up and duck, duck, go it, and it looks like it's maybe somebody's trying to put this through social media and say that maybe they're gonna bring it back, I don't think they're gonna bring it back. - Yeah, there's a lot of people out there that are wanting a lot of things to be brought back. Now that Trump won the election, and all this ridiculous stuff is gonna go out the window, whether it's Antramimis syrup, or the Washington Redskins nickname for the franchise, you know, I'd say yeah, I would love to see all of it because I hate the petty woke cancel culture political correctness, but it's not gonna happen. It's just not, it should, but it won't. - Yeah, I mean, her descendants, Nancy Green's descendants came out and thought that it was sad that they, because they loved it, they thought it was a great tribute to her life. - Yeah, it's the only people that are outraged by this or are single liberal women. That's the only people they get in all hot and bothered by this, my rule of thumb with all of this is, if the group of people that have a right to be offended or not offended, then you shouldn't be offended either, right? - Yeah, amen. I don't know, I think, I would love if they brought back a genuine like organic maple syrup and put it under the Nancy Green label, you know, I think that would be a nice tribute term. - Are you a syrup or butter person for your pancakes? - Real maple syrup. - Real maple syrup, okay. - And if you can find grade B, believe it or not, it's much better for you. - Yeah. - There are ingredients in maple syrup that-- - By the way, you say-- - Better, you say-- - Better for you. - You say syrup, syrup. - Syrup. - I say syrup. - Yeah, so do I. - You're a syrup. - By the way, the end to my mystery is false, that's not actually happening. - Yeah, that's what I said. - Yeah, yep, she said that. - Sorry, I didn't-- - Syrup, though. - Syrup. - You know, I have a weird-- - Interesting. - Accent. - Is that a Minnesota thing? - I, you know-- - Is your call go thing? - Here's the problem. Even though I've lived here, like 26 years of my life. - Yeah. - I've lived before that. I lived two to four years, I live someplace else. - Yeah. - So I do have a kooky accent. - I go butter over syrup every time, whether it's waffle or pancake, like butter. - If you, but you should never really have the high fructose syrup that they say is, like they play it off as healthy like maple syrup. Like my grandma, my mom was from Wisconsin, and we used to help tap the maple trees and have that, you know, it doesn't taste that way, by the way, but the nutrients from it are so good for you. - So you would go out and collect syrup from the trees? - Mm-hmm. - Really? - Yep. - I see a little young go on Stensland out there in the woods of Minnesota. - We went to, we went to New Hampshire and Maine for Thanksgiving a couple years ago, and we'd got like natural syrup from Maine that was like made right there. - Was it great? - It was great, yeah. - So good. - It's good for you. - Yeah, it's amazing for you. - Well, I don't know, it's good for you, but it's better for you than the, you know, the Aunt Jemima. - Uh-huh. - High fructose corn syrup. So let's get to it. Pennsylvania's Supreme Court, this is making national news, obviously, and like Greg Stalker said, broke, the story broke right here on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT, yesterday afternoon, on the Ritzy Ollie show, he had Michael Watley on, right? - He did, he did, yep. - And so the story broke that the Pennsylvania Supreme Court were not surprised by this, ruled that you must count only legal ballots. - What a novel concept. I mean, you're right, it has gone, I mean, super viral. Everybody's talking about it nationally. I just saw Jonathan Turley, he tweeted two things that I thought was interesting, 'cause he targeted Josh Shapiro. He says, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro just criticized the pledge of democratic election officials to count invalid ballots in the Senate race. The true test of principle and leadership is to speak up when it matters the most and is least popular. Shapiro waited for weeks after repeated rulings against the unlawful action. He said nothing when commissioner Diane Marseglia declared that she and the Democratic chair would ignore the rulings of the Supreme Court. People violate laws anytime they want, quote, about that. - And then the Bucks County commissioners, that's the one being widely quoted. - Margalese or whatever. - Yeah, Diane Margalese, because she's the one and you play her audio this week, guys, that she was admitting saying the quiet part out loud, yep. I did this because I wanted to call attention. I broke the law, essentially I'm paraphrasing, she broke the law, she says, to make a point. She thinks she can. And so now, will this spark, and now that I guess the governor who's spoken out about it as well, are they thinking now that maybe, and to your point Nick, maybe it was Margalese's statement that the governor finally thought, well, the court has ruled on it, and she said this, and so it's a bad look, but will she face some kind of censure? - That's interesting, probably not, it's my guess. - So the recount is continuing. I know we've talked a lot about it. All of these counties, every one of the 67 counties, must begin their recount by tomorrow. Tomorrow by noon, they have to have begun it. - You know, we always talk about whether it's in sports or in politics, your legacy, right? Once you lose, what is your legacy? Is this gonna be a stain and a tarnish on the casey legacy, or is he immune from this because he's a Democrat? Because like when you think about his body of work and how long he was in office for, you go back to what was it, 2006, the family going back to starting in 1987, his dad. I mean, if this plays out all the way into next week, Wednesday the 27th at noon, you said the deadline is, and then it's finally deemed yet, you lost, it's over, you've exhausted all of your possible objections, so to speak. Does this tarnish his legacy? I would think it does. I mean, you're talking about searching for ballots that shouldn't count in the first place. I'm just wondering if, 'cause if this was a Republican, it would be covered differently. - Definitely so, but now that the Supreme Court has ruled on it, and I then suspect that they remove these, the ones, illegal, I guess the illegal ones were counted, right? In Philadelphia, Bucks, Manko, and other counties. So if they remove those, does that change the number for the recount? You know what I'm saying? So there are a lot of questions, and there are so many different suits. I saw that there was one story where they were saying, oh, the RNC and the GOP, they have so many hundreds of attorneys, yeah, and that's a good thing. That's a good thing, because Democrats and Republicans both have witnesses for all of these, they're following the proper procedures. To your point, Nick, I do have to wonder as this count goes on, as the numbers emerge, does the Casey camp finally concede? - Before next when, before it'd be a week from tomorrow, right, so would they do that week, maybe by the weekend or Monday? - So, Friday news, don't, so this is, for those not following this as closely as we are, this is the Democrat Commissioner Diane Mars. - Margolis. - Margolis, this is what she said. - We reject all three categories of these ballots. Your motion is to reject or dismiss the challenges in this category in front of you. - Correct, yep. Not going to second that, mostly because I think 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. - You know, that's the soundbite that I quoted earlier, and that's the one that's going viral. Has anybody actually decided to interview her and ask her what she is actually referencing or implying? - Probably Jay-sick. - Exactly. - But all those people, I mean, those people were jailed immediately before they had due process, and their sentence, I mean, some of them are sentenced to 17 years for a misdemeanor trespassing judge. So, that they were, you know, I don't think that they evaded any law. - Yeah, I mean, it's interesting. She wants to kind of nibble around the edges and beat around the bush. Why don't you just come out and just say what you're implying? - Or maybe she's just saying Trump gets to do it. I think this is all about Trump, right? - Yeah, yeah, there's something to do with it. - Trump gets to do what he wants to do, but he's being dragged through the courts. So, I don't think that he does. - No, no, he said to go to court countless times. - So-- - By the way, it's Marceglia. - Marceglia? - Yeah, I butcher that, that's my fault. - What did I say? - Or no, wait, did I get it right? - I don't know, I don't know. - 'Cause I was reading a tweet. - I don't know. - I don't know. - I was reading a Turleys tweet. I thought, once I heard Margolis, I thought Turley misspelled it, and I just, you know, I was reading his tweet and said Marceglia. - Yeah, cares. Everybody knows who she is. Anyway, Road Warrior says, "The guy that destroys the English language "on a daily basis has thoughts on pronunciations." - That's right. - No, but I think I, who cares? She's a, we should just nickname her like the hot mess lady. I don't know, the lawbreaker lady. - Hey, we are in the audio format. So, we analyze audio. Just like we were analyzing Deborah Burks. Does she have a little Bobby Kennedy going on there? - Vocal Burks. - Scarfo Burks. - Yeah. - But there's Scarfo. - Somebody was saying, and I don't know this to be true, but I'm just reading a comment. Somebody was saying that when you put Botox in your neck, it can affect your vocal cords. - Well, that, RFK Junior was asked about that. - Yeah. - And so he said that it would mitigate it, but he doesn't want to put the toxin in his neck. - Yeah. Well, it's a, a Botox is like a paralyzing agent, correct? That's why, that's why I think it would, would cause issues on your vocal cords, because your vocal cords have to vibrate for you to create sound. Trust me, I know I've had vocal cords or not a positive experience. - Yeah, so, but I guess it treats that condition that the Kennedy seem to have. - By the way, when I had my, when I had my vocal cord surgery seven years ago, they bring you out of sedation while your neck is slit open, while they're messing around with your vocal cords. - Oh God, what are you doing to me, man? - Yeah. - I had to make, I had to make a bunch of sounds while I'm slit open, and I'm like, you know, half alert. I would have just been like, kill me now. Just please kill me now. - And I can feel them scraping around in my throat. Shout out to the breakfast crowd right now. I'm enjoying the, the, the eggs and cereal. - Oh God. - You know what I'm saying? - But in a way, it's kind of cool. - It is. - But today I have a mirror and you could see it. - No, I didn't. - I would want to see it. I'm one of those pimple popper chains. - Oh, I love that, I love that show. - So if they're fixing your, I think that's kind of cool. - She's also pretty hot too, so. - She is, she's smart, she's hot. We like her. We like smart, hot women, Dawn. - McCormick's campaign calls this latest ruling a massive, quote, massive setback for Casey. We don't have Casey conceding. And so Republicans are saying the law is clear. The ballots must be discarded. I get, there are multiple court battles. I can't even keep them all straight. I know her friend Linda Kearns is, I believe she's back in court as we speak this morning. I think she, I think this one's in Philadelphia. - Wow. - But the, the Casey's campaign, they're fighting still. Saying that some of these provisional ballots should not be rejected for what they call garden variety errors. So there's still, this is still a fight going on. And because they're looking at places like Philadelphia where they think that it would help that people would be more likely to vote for Casey. But like I say, no matter how I look at this with the numbers, I don't really see how it becomes a switcharoo where Casey could claim victory. - It's pretty amazing that the Sixers season could end before Casey's campaign. (laughing) If you think about it, if you want to make it a local local story, the Sixers have tapped out before Bob Casey. - The intersection of sports and politics to local. There we go. And with that, I'll tap out of news. Killing company, news live. - I'm going to tap out in 33 minutes and hand it off to Don.

Visit windownation.com as today, we are joined by another great veteran, Benjamin Berry, at 101 years old. Benjamin, it is so great to speak with you this morning. How are you, sir? - Thank you, sir. Benjamin got both feet on the ground, ready to roll. - Absolutely. Here you are in your days in the service, a tech four corporal for the Quartermaster Corps, Third Army. So let me ask you this question. How old were you when you enlisted? Were you drafted? And what led you down this path to serve your country, sir? - Hmm. Well, I was drafted, I was 18 years of age, and I had not completed high school. So they let me complete high school and graduate in June, and in July, 1950, I'm sorry, July, 1945. I was a gentleman changed from civilian life to military life. It's a very interesting transition. You go from the freedom that you have, you're in high school, and next thing you know, you forget about being thrown into the real world. You're thrown into the real world fire of war. What was that like at such a young age? I can't envision at 18 years old what that was like. How was that for you? - Well, with energy that an 18 year old would have, I had that much salt, so. But by being drafted or called to be a service, I felt as though it was not only my duty, but to do it and get it over with. Of course, I knew I never kept a job any longer. So the job I had defend in our country, I could win that by myself. - Absolutely. You're lucky, you're fortunate, right? You come home and you have the rest of your life. What was that like? Because as great as it is, serving your country, it is a small chapter of your story, of your life. So tell us what life was like upon returning to the United States. - Well, there were so many things that had been passed in that period of time I was in this service. It was quite hard. Interestingly, I could say that you're east of it. One thing reality, coming home after the war, on the ship, they gave us toothpaste. And the toothpaste, I don't know the particular name, but it was red, white, and blue. And when I left, home was where the toothpaste was all white, so that was quite fascinating to me. One of the first things I learned before in Germany and Syria and life. - That's an amazing story. It's interesting the developments and the progressions that we have in society, as you leave, you come back, and it's a completely different world. What was your like post-service career-wise, family-wise, because God bless you, you're still around today, sir. - Yes, well, I didn't have too much experience with the world, 'cause I was still a student in high school when I graduated prior to that. I guess I had like every other boy would have growing up during what mom and dad taught you to do. And you try your best to do it. - Of course, that's a boy, Rever, for a inquisitive. And I guess he's roamed a little bit from the past, that mother and dad wanted us to go on. But we came back to that home training at Rever taught. - Did you end up doing anything professionally that you wanna tell our audience about? I mean, I've spoken with many veterans, some went on to further their education and become teachers and principals. I've had business owners. I've had people that have worked as machinists, mechanics, or in the manufacturing industry. Professionally, what did you do until you retired? - Well, Uncle Sam had what you call the GI Bill. I signed up for that. I went to school where I learned painting and wall covering. I was on a job doing the paper hanging. And I really wanted the painting and it all done. So I told her to go ahead and paint, like do the wall paper. She said, "No, you paper and I'll come behind you." But you know that really seemed behind me with that paintbrush painting so nice and neat. After I did the wall paper, I could never compete with her as a painter. - So I stuck the wall paper in this. - Okay, well, very good. Benjamin Berry, 101 years young tech for third Army Quartermaster Corps. Thank you so much for the time, God bless you, Benjamin. And I hope to chat with you in the years to come. - The only reason I'm still here is because God said you're gonna stay here until you get it right. - That's right, keep trying, right? - I'm gonna keep messing up. - All right, there you go. Thank you, Mr. Berry. We appreciate you. All right, take care. - Bye bye. - All right, there he is. And what a week and a half it has been. Most of those we taped after the show shortly after 10 o'clock, a few were live. But what an awesome exercise, just to chat with so many great individuals. And the interest in it from you, the audience, as well as the submissions that we got, because I remember in the early days of this two weeks ago, I mean, Stalker, you were, when we were soliciting submissions, emails were coming into you, but we were getting calls at the front desk. - The Schuyler who is our lovely front desk receptionist was just like, are you guys doing something? I'm getting like calls off the hook for something you're doing and I had to explain to her. So yeah, there's a lot of interest in this. So we thank everybody for taking the time, but there's not a lot of these people left. And that guy is 101 years old, we spoke to a guy yesterday that was turning 100 in at the end of December. So very few of these people are left and luckily, there's still a handful that can tell their story or they have relatives that can tell their story. So thank you for this and the outpouring of support that we've gotten from all of this. - Big thank you to Window Nation without them. It's not possible, so we appreciate their partnership. And if you guys are obviously in the need in the market for windows, doors, anything like that, windownation.com, mention the show and they will be glad to take care of you.

Like 10 minutes straight to the afterwind. - How long does it take to get up to those steps? I don't even know, like are we gonna be waiting for-- - It took us to alone, like eight seconds.
