02:23.377 --> 02:24.438 [SPEAKER_06]: And what's very funny. 02:24.458 --> 02:25.379 [SPEAKER_06]: I think I said this yesterday. 02:25.439 --> 02:29.344 [SPEAKER_06]: Bob Romano's who was in Fast Times was a character that, 02:30.472 --> 02:33.257 [SPEAKER_06]: a divergenized the character of Natalie. 02:33.477 --> 02:34.299 [SPEAKER_03]: The flower of the character. 02:34.319 --> 02:39.408 [SPEAKER_06]: And when I had lunch with her a month or two ago, Bob was here recording with Lonnie. 02:40.049 --> 02:42.674 [SPEAKER_06]: And so I was telling her, she goes, oh no, I know Bob remain. 02:42.694 --> 02:43.536 [SPEAKER_06]: That's what he's talking about. 02:43.556 --> 02:45.159 [SPEAKER_06]: And I said, when she goes, oh, you remember this? 02:45.239 --> 02:50.809 [SPEAKER_06]: And

awesome. 02:57.979 --> 03:04.708 [SPEAKER_03]: You know, although honestly, he didn't have, as the kids say, the Riz these days of the one and only Lonnie Paul, the politics bar. 03:04.728 --> 03:08.914 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, climb the man just, you know, I think he got a voice like that, I mean, you know. 03:09.194 --> 03:11.397 [SPEAKER_03]: That's just how he talks all the time. 03:12.592 --> 03:15.976 [SPEAKER_03]: I told you, I've told everybody here in the bar back to Old Frosty Mitchell. 03:16.076 --> 03:19.299 [SPEAKER_03]: One of my, the guys I used to work with when I first started in radio. 03:19.860 --> 03:20.501 [SPEAKER_03]: Hi there. 03:20.521 --> 03:24.325 [SPEAKER_03]: Do you want to, you know, do it. 03:24.605 --> 03:31.773 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I still find it funny that, you know, that's, that's actually who this guy was. 03:32.173 --> 03:37.519 [SPEAKER_03]: So, and, and, you know, honestly, people that are famous or semi-famous, 03:37.752 --> 03:42.782 [SPEAKER_03]: they're different than we see on the screens and I don't always think that everybody realizes this. 03:43.022 --> 03:46.288 [SPEAKER_03]: I think sometimes people lock somebody in a mode. 03:46.929 --> 04:00.435 [SPEAKER_03]: Like some some people out there I know have locked Carol in a mode where they're like oh she's you know she walks around and with a bathroom and you know the mop and I'm like you realize that was a cartoon right that was a cartoon caricature of Carol Burnett. 04:00.415 --> 04:04.702 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, no, that the char women, the char women was at the end of every season. 04:04.843 --> 04:08.349 [SPEAKER_06]: My mom dressed in the outfit and saying, I'm so glad. 04:08.369 --> 04:10.172 [SPEAKER_06]: And then everybody would say goodbye. 04:10.192 --> 04:11.254 [SPEAKER_06]: She would clean up sometimes. 04:11.454 --> 04:18.326 [SPEAKER_06]: Like, early the first five years, she would actually do like a thing and a dance thing and then she'd sit down and because that character never spoke. 04:18.406 --> 04:19.909 [SPEAKER_06]: She only sang the theme song. 04:34.537 --> 04:35.378 [SPEAKER_03]: That's cool. 04:35.719 --> 04:36.560 [SPEAKER_03]: I think it's isn't it? 04:36.880 --> 04:37.681 [SPEAKER_03]: It's not the Smithsonian. 04:37.701 --> 04:40.065 [SPEAKER_03]: It is now unless Donald takes it out to the bar. 04:40.325 --> 04:47.074 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, yeah, if that There's so much news today in the news on tap as well Where do you want to start? 04:47.094 --> 04:47.635 [SPEAKER_03]: Do you want to start? 04:47.715 --> 05:03.497 [SPEAKER_03]: Actually we probably should start with the people who actually matter most the people who are Gonna be hungry 42 million at least and you remember all the people who are affected by that and those who are affected by that What they call secondary and tertiary effects 05:03.815 --> 05:09.642 [SPEAKER_03]: There's no joke folks and and it's not because Democrats, I God, this piss. 05:10.824 --> 05:12.346 [SPEAKER_03]: Sorry, it piss me off so much. 05:14.608 --> 05:15.910 [SPEAKER_03]: So tiny Johnson. 05:17.131 --> 05:18.513 [SPEAKER_03]: Doing his little daily thing. 05:18.613 --> 05:30.548 [SPEAKER_03]: He's doing a little thing where he is on the dance and front of the camera and he brings a handful of Republicans behind him, mostly cabinet members because they're not actually house members because most House Republicans, he's told stay away from DC. 05:30.882 --> 05:58.948 [SPEAKER_03]: and enjoy their paid vacation mind you they're all still get paid except for house democrats are there senate democrats and senate republicans are there by the way we actually have a story that is in the news on top today the senate is continuing to try to find ways they've voted out like 13 times and people say that's stupid and you go put their trying they're trying to figure something out and they're actually talking to each other and you know why they're talking to each other because they're at work 05:59.840 --> 06:01.001 [SPEAKER_03]: actually came to work. 06:01.562 --> 06:02.283 [SPEAKER_03]: Drainage cons. 06:02.303 --> 06:06.427 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, at least the Senate Republicans are doing their jobs or at least 10, too. 06:06.447 --> 06:06.728 [SPEAKER_03]: All right. 06:06.788 --> 06:15.678 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't agree with everything that they put out and I don't agree with their claims that they go, well, we're trying to do a claims that you are not until you say you're not going to let Russ vote screw things over. 06:15.698 --> 06:16.599 [SPEAKER_03]: You don't want us to be clean. 06:16.859 --> 06:17.980 [SPEAKER_03]: Right. 06:18.000 --> 06:20.363 [SPEAKER_03]: In the meantime, House Republicans are not there. 06:20.423 --> 06:23.706 [SPEAKER_03]: But Tiny Johnson, he keeps blaming the Democrats anyway. 06:23.747 --> 06:29.593 [SPEAKER_05]: Here's this from the DVR. 06:29.995 --> 06:31.997 [SPEAKER_05]: They keep saying Republicans are in charge of government. 06:32.337 --> 06:32.798 [SPEAKER_05]: We aren't. 06:33.098 --> 06:33.799 [SPEAKER_05]: Not in the Senate. 06:37.002 --> 06:37.783 [SPEAKER_03]: Tiny Johnson. 06:38.604 --> 06:40.926 [SPEAKER_03]: What the hell is your title, dude? 06:41.247 --> 06:41.727 [SPEAKER_03]: Seriously. 06:41.968 --> 06:42.768 [SPEAKER_03]: What is your title? 06:42.869 --> 06:45.992 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, the thing is, he said not in the Senate because they need 60 votes. 06:46.012 --> 06:46.673 [SPEAKER_06]: No, they don't. 06:47.994 --> 06:48.534 [SPEAKER_03]: Exactly. 06:48.635 --> 06:49.335 [SPEAKER_03]: Jody is right. 06:49.375 --> 06:51.778 [SPEAKER_06]: No, they could change the rule tomorrow. 06:51.978 --> 06:54.321 [SPEAKER_06]: Today, as I'm speaking, they could change the rule. 06:54.881 --> 06:56.483 [SPEAKER_06]: Get that past has its written. 06:56.803 --> 06:58.585 [SPEAKER_06]: And then Donald will go ahead and sign it. 06:59.037 --> 07:01.441 [SPEAKER_03]: Look, they could, they could do a whole lot of things. 07:02.082 --> 07:07.109 [SPEAKER_03]: They just don't want one of the things that they could do that they keep claiming they are not doing. 07:07.270 --> 07:08.572 [SPEAKER_03]: We've got the actual facts. 07:08.612 --> 07:10.615 [SPEAKER_03]: And you could track it in the news on Tap today. 07:10.655 --> 07:13.179 [SPEAKER_03]: The first round where Republicans are losing the shutdown. 07:13.219 --> 07:18.267 [SPEAKER_03]: First of all, polling continues to show more voters, more voters, blame Republicans than Democrats. 07:18.808 --> 07:25.618 [SPEAKER_03]: Which makes sense because Republicans are in control of the house, the Senate, the White House, and the Supreme Court. 07:26.189 --> 07:29.854 [SPEAKER_03]: When you control everything, I'm sorry, you're in control. 07:30.094 --> 07:31.216 [SPEAKER_03]: That's how it works. 07:31.236 --> 07:32.257 [SPEAKER_03]: You have the responsibility. 07:32.277 --> 07:34.921 [SPEAKER_03]: They're tiny Johnson, but more than that. 07:35.201 --> 07:40.648 [SPEAKER_03]: So Johnson keeps saying that, well, the snap contingency funds are not legally available. 07:40.969 --> 07:43.572 [SPEAKER_03]: No, no, no, no, no, the Senate for budget and policy priorities. 07:43.652 --> 07:47.117 [SPEAKER_03]: Actually, put out a piece and we've got that linked in the news on tap as well. 07:47.097 --> 07:53.267 [SPEAKER_03]: saying that Speaker Johnson is lying, snaps contingency reserve is available for regular SNF benefits. 07:53.287 --> 08:03.124 [SPEAKER_03]: In the same way that the USDA and OMB have ruled in the past, we actually have been saying this for a while, and it came Jeffries, he's still there working, and he said the same thing today. 08:03.424 --> 08:12.379 [SPEAKER_00]: As has been the case, and as Angie Craig and Rosa Dolora Paul, you two momentarily have repeatedly said, the funds have already been allocated. 08:13.456 --> 08:32.513 [SPEAKER_00]: by the Congress in a bipartisan way to allow a continuation of SNAP benefits through November 1st, deep into the month of November and as additional funds that are available to be reallocated so that not a single person in this country goes hungry. 08:33.915 --> 08:43.243 [SPEAKER_00]: And if that happens beginning on November 1st it's because Donald Trump and Republicans want the American people to go hungry. 08:43.308 --> 08:44.010 [SPEAKER_03]: Absolutely. 08:45.594 --> 08:57.604 [SPEAKER_03]: So the people who are going to suffer in your neighborhood and mine people who are suffering not too far just outside bar people who are suffering everywhere from coast to coast all 50 states and seven territories. 08:57.820 --> 09:03.890 [SPEAKER_03]: that's on Republicans and more importantly than that I think Paul Craigman had a good piece. 09:03.910 --> 09:05.633 [SPEAKER_03]: We put this in the news on tap today too. 09:06.695 --> 09:09.960 [SPEAKER_03]: Republicans message to Americans is actually pretty simple. 09:10.461 --> 09:11.643 [SPEAKER_03]: Let the hunger games begin. 09:11.904 --> 09:12.765 [SPEAKER_03]: It's actually FU. 09:14.027 --> 09:14.949 [SPEAKER_06]: It's exactly it. 09:14.969 --> 09:16.251 [SPEAKER_06]: You're absolutely right. 09:16.231 --> 09:17.112 [SPEAKER_03]: Thanks. 09:17.252 --> 09:18.714 [SPEAKER_03]: It boggles my mind. 09:19.174 --> 09:20.996 [SPEAKER_03]: Craigman goes down and he expands. 09:21.036 --> 09:30.868 [SPEAKER_03]: He says, look, this is a political decision and specifically a Republican decision on snap, on WIC, on all the food assistance. 09:30.888 --> 09:36.294 [SPEAKER_03]: This is a decision by the Republicans because the Democrats can't make the decision because they're not in power. 09:36.674 --> 09:36.875 [SPEAKER_03]: And power. 09:36.895 --> 09:37.015 [SPEAKER_12]: Right? 09:37.335 --> 09:37.876 [SPEAKER_03]: Exactly. 09:38.657 --> 09:39.057 [SPEAKER_03]: Joe is right. 09:39.578 --> 09:40.679 [SPEAKER_03]: So it's Paul Craigman. 09:40.699 --> 09:44.263 [SPEAKER_03]: He also goes on to say, the pain from this lost food aid. 09:44.243 --> 09:50.727 [SPEAKER_03]: is gonna hurt Republican voters because people remember when they're hungry and people remember when they're needlessly 09:50.926 --> 10:00.501 [SPEAKER_06]: they remember when their children are hungry or their parents are hungry or their grandparents are hungry or their disabled family member or friend or whatever I mean it's just. 10:00.961 --> 10:14.622 [SPEAKER_03]: And the partisan affiliation of most of the SNAP recipients actually their Republicans, their poor white people, they're not poor black people, they are people who are in the rural areas of Kentucky and Tennessee like the people who are listening to us on D2 or talk. 10:14.686 --> 10:16.352 [SPEAKER_03]: Look there in Georgia as well. 10:16.392 --> 10:19.363 [SPEAKER_03]: We'll talk to Ron Roberts about some of that and how it's affecting the people there. 10:20.105 --> 10:24.882 [SPEAKER_03]: Despite what Republicans believe, snap recipients, they're not lazy. 10:25.469 --> 10:26.311 [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, what is he? 10:26.351 --> 10:42.727 [SPEAKER_03]: Most of us, yeah, 40% of children, um, 18% or elderly, 11% of disabled, most of them work at least one full-time job, but basically they're not getting paid a living wage and they're not getting paid a living wage because we effectively subsidize the wages. 10:43.489 --> 10:45.553 [SPEAKER_03]: I used to work at Walmart and I can tell you this. 10:46.833 --> 10:50.441 [SPEAKER_03]: We are subsidizing the wages of people to places like Walmart and a target. 10:50.762 --> 10:52.405 [SPEAKER_03]: Amazon's. 10:52.425 --> 10:57.737 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, and by the way, guests companies that are having an ounce layoffs recently, Amazon. 10:58.037 --> 10:58.539 [SPEAKER_03]: Target. 10:59.320 --> 10:59.661 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 11:00.181 --> 11:09.075 [SPEAKER_03]: So, do not tell me the Trumponomics works, and do not tell me that Republicans give one bit of a damn about you, because we all know exactly. 11:09.375 --> 11:10.637 [SPEAKER_03]: Republicans don't care about you. 11:10.798 --> 11:11.278 [SPEAKER_06]: They don't. 11:11.298 --> 11:11.639 [SPEAKER_03]: It's unfortunate. 11:11.699 --> 11:12.761 [SPEAKER_03]: It's unfortunate. 11:13.061 --> 11:15.385 [SPEAKER_03]: There are a lot of individual personal Republicans. 11:15.405 --> 11:15.605 [SPEAKER_03]: Of course. 11:15.685 --> 11:16.967 [SPEAKER_03]: You know them. 11:17.348 --> 11:17.548 [SPEAKER_03]: Right. 11:17.829 --> 11:18.870 [SPEAKER_03]: But the elected ones? 11:19.852 --> 11:20.453 [SPEAKER_03]: No. 11:20.473 --> 11:21.835 [SPEAKER_03]: Don't care. 11:22.591 --> 11:24.894 [SPEAKER_03]: Just, you know, important to note that. 11:24.934 --> 11:26.436 [SPEAKER_03]: And important to say, don't blame the people. 11:26.576 --> 11:31.823 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I mean, blame the people in your neighborhood who voted for them and remind them that, you know, do you voted for this? 11:33.164 --> 11:37.990 [SPEAKER_03]: But also, the people who actually could do something or they elected Republicans and they end up in squad. 11:38.030 --> 11:39.592 [SPEAKER_06]: They don't want to, they couldn't care less. 11:39.612 --> 11:40.393 [SPEAKER_06]: They want exactly. 11:41.114 --> 11:52.108 [SPEAKER_06]: If you have a hungry electorate, an electorate that can't afford healthcare and electorate whose wages are flat at best, they will do whatever it takes 11:53.320 --> 11:55.482 [SPEAKER_03]: and that is to some degree actually. 11:55.923 --> 12:01.589 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, there's a little thing I'm trying to see if we actually put it down there in the foreign affairs section today. 12:01.870 --> 12:02.491 [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, yeah, we did. 12:03.011 --> 12:11.801 [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, Trump's bailout threat may have been key to malaise electoral triumph in Argentina, which we're still looking at that election at Argentina and questioning it. 12:12.602 --> 12:12.722 [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hm. 12:12.742 --> 12:21.252 [SPEAKER_03]: But because of the fact that Donald Trump said, I will give 40 billion Argentina, unless of course my guy doesn't win, then I'll 12:21.704 --> 12:23.527 [SPEAKER_03]: They do have the internet in Argentina folks. 12:23.607 --> 12:28.835 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, and they also read and speak English, and they can translate it to Spanish. 12:28.875 --> 12:29.837 [SPEAKER_03]: Another language is right. 12:30.278 --> 12:35.246 [SPEAKER_03]: And and they basically, from what they're looking at it saying people going, look, we don't like Malay. 12:35.286 --> 12:35.766 [SPEAKER_03]: He's awful. 12:35.806 --> 12:43.138 [SPEAKER_03]: And what he's doing is awful, but we really need the money and there are voters there who actually made that decision to back. 12:44.215 --> 13:05.329 [SPEAKER_03]: So yeah, don't don't let anybody tell you that Democrats are holding anybody hostage because you can't hold anybody hostage if you're not the one actually in power and Republicans they're the ones in power folks So that's they don't want us to get rid they don't want to get rid of the filibuster even though they could say it's just from the one bill right which is what you've said the whole talking journey just for this one bill 13:05.866 --> 13:31.249 [SPEAKER_03]: Some of this stuff is so frustrating, we will talk about it a little bit later, but we are going to step away from some of this stuff and, you know, have an old friend of Jodie's hang out with us because, well, we want to hear about some of Jodie's high school days and also she's working most of the time. 13:31.229 --> 13:34.914 [SPEAKER_03]: It's yourself to drinks, because it'll be the time with many, exactly. 13:34.934 --> 13:35.995 [SPEAKER_03]: Two for Tuesday, exactly. 13:36.316 -->

15:09.712 --> 15:15.043 [SPEAKER_03]: I saw up on your Instagram and I was like, damn. 15:15.063 --> 15:16.586 [SPEAKER_03]: Girl knows how to hang with people. 15:18.350 --> 15:19.272 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't see Pelosi. 15:19.693 --> 15:24.362 [SPEAKER_04]: I mean, you know, thank you. 15:24.629 --> 15:51.717 [SPEAKER_03]: It borders on ridiculous our cast as as I'm sure Jodie you know has talked about and can attest to yes well there's also there's this this crazy I mean not only do you have some people like people wouldn't necessarily think of It's a Ricky Martin remember right yes, which they're like some people like what what but I mean of course then there's the wonderful and fantastic Carol as we call her out here because that's just like your mom but yeah exactly 15:51.882 --> 16:03.638 [SPEAKER_04]: Yes, and Alison Janney, you know, and Kristen wig that are our star and our leader Laura George Lucas and I mean, and Julia Duffy, it just keeps on going. 16:03.798 --> 16:06.962 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, and now you have John Stamos and Vicky Lawrence. 16:07.143 --> 16:07.643 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, yeah. 16:08.284 --> 16:09.986 [SPEAKER_04]: Yes, we have and patty lapone. 16:10.026 --> 16:11.008 [SPEAKER_04]: Yes, patty lapone. 16:11.148 --> 16:12.009 [SPEAKER_04]: Exactly. 16:12.029 --> 16:18.598 [SPEAKER_04]: Those three have are the highlights of our guest stars this season, which I mean, it's an embarrassment of riches disabled least. 16:18.578 --> 16:20.683 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's awesome. 16:20.744 --> 16:22.468 [SPEAKER_03]: That is fantastic. 16:22.488 --> 16:27.040 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, everybody wants to and everybody should subscribe, you know, watch Home Royale. 16:27.742 --> 16:28.263 [SPEAKER_03]: Thank you. 16:28.283 --> 16:33.456 [SPEAKER_03]: We also have to ask, you know, this is a question that I'm sure everybody here at the bar actually could probably want to know. 16:33.476 --> 16:34.900 [SPEAKER_03]: So what was Jordan like in high school? 16:35.960 --> 16:38.664 [SPEAKER_04]: It's cool as she is now. 16:39.325 --> 16:40.166 [SPEAKER_04]: You're very sweet. 16:40.847 --> 16:52.542 [SPEAKER_04]: I mean, yeah, we, we didn't get to hang as much as I would have liked, you know, jettisetting decades later, but she was in the great Belomey. 16:53.083 --> 16:59.672 [SPEAKER_04]: But her friend group, we, we co-mingled friends in her friend group, and what I know of her is, 16:59.990 --> 17:16.870 [SPEAKER_04]: which is what I adore about Jodi most of our, all is that, you know, she's the same, older, wiser, funnier, lived a little life under her belt, so a great raccant tour, plugged into what's going on in the world, but pretty much the same and may go to that. 17:17.210 --> 17:22.977 [SPEAKER_04]: I like that very much when people are who they are and remain so, it's very comforting. 17:22.957 --> 17:52.710 [SPEAKER_03]: right back at you young lady I have to ask this because around here we we all know there there's this wonderful guy he has a great set of pipes that he walks by every once in a while and he says politics bar and that's the quote you want to fall but she hasn't met him yet she hasn't well no you met Lonnie at the Moushon Franks didn't you briefly yes but literally passing in the night and we was high nice to meet you, high nice to meet you so I have not gotten the full experience of him yet I've gotten the full the politics bar 17:52.690 --> 17:55.355 [SPEAKER_03]: So so here's the here's the question. 17:55.456 --> 17:58.181 [SPEAKER_03]: So did you know any of the guys that Jody dated? 17:58.382 --> 18:09.204 [SPEAKER_04]: I didn't date anybody then no none of us did and we went to a girl school and and we were not of the group that of was the fast crowd shall we send there. 18:09.284 --> 18:13.112 [SPEAKER_04]: We were the late limers and not crazy late, but just later 18:13.092 --> 18:13.733 [SPEAKER_04]: Okay. 18:13.754 --> 18:14.134 [SPEAKER_04]: Got it. 18:14.154 --> 18:15.277 [SPEAKER_06]: College. 18:15.337 --> 18:15.558 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah. 18:15.898 --> 18:16.059 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah. 18:16.079 --> 18:17.282 [SPEAKER_06]: Plus we went to a girl school. 18:17.322 --> 18:21.491 [SPEAKER_06]: So meeting boys was a little more difficult outside of dances at Harvard. 18:21.952 --> 18:22.674 [SPEAKER_04]: And not only that. 18:22.794 --> 18:28.668 [SPEAKER_04]: I went to an all-girl school in the morning and then drove to a studio where I worked with all girls in the afternoon. 18:28.688 --> 18:29.229 [SPEAKER_04]: Exactly. 18:29.590 --> 18:31.033 [SPEAKER_04]: So that decade. 18:31.013 --> 18:34.144 [SPEAKER_04]: was very slim-pickens on the men's department. 18:34.987 --> 18:38.679 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but the men that you did have, I mean, for example, George Clooney. 18:38.699 --> 18:43.977 [SPEAKER_04]: I mean, you know, I didn't have George Clooney for saying. 18:44.311 --> 18:47.959 [SPEAKER_04]: We lunch, we work together for three years. 18:47.979 --> 18:54.813 [SPEAKER_04]: I had my time with George, but no, I did not have an individual sense. 18:54.833 --> 18:58.421 [SPEAKER_03]: I cannot believe that you made me blush and I did not expect that. 18:58.461 --> 19:00.125 [SPEAKER_03]: You played this game as well. 19:00.425 --> 19:00.666 [SPEAKER_03]: Great. 19:00.726 --> 19:01.307 [SPEAKER_06]: I've won. 19:03.262 --> 19:11.031 [SPEAKER_06]: When also we were talking before you came on about how when we were having lunch a while back that Lonnie was recording Robert Ramanas. 19:11.051 --> 19:11.992 [SPEAKER_06]: And you're like, oh my God. 19:12.953 --> 19:15.816 [SPEAKER_06]: And it's just like, in Bobby's just like, now I just can't. 19:16.076 --> 19:17.057 [SPEAKER_06]: You had Bob. 19:17.118 --> 19:18.299 [SPEAKER_04]: Yes, you had him. 19:18.419 --> 19:19.440 [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know if I had Bob. 19:19.901 --> 19:20.621 [SPEAKER_06]: But I got a snake. 19:21.262 --> 19:23.365 [SPEAKER_04]: I'm like, oh, go from there. 19:23.425 --> 19:25.427 [SPEAKER_04]: But yes, it was such a small world. 19:25.447 --> 19:29.712 [SPEAKER_04]: I was so tickled that he is just still around in the ethers. 19:29.772 --> 19:31.834 [SPEAKER_04]: We haven't seen each other in decades. 19:32.287 --> 19:35.973 [SPEAKER_04]: I was tickled that you guys knew him so well. 19:36.574 --> 19:40.861 [SPEAKER_06]: We've gotten to, I mean, after I did that silly movie that I sent you that I have yet to send you, Sean. 19:41.563 --> 19:42.043 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, you should. 19:42.544 --> 19:46.291 [SPEAKER_06]: That's when Bob started to come over because Lonnie's got classic cars. 19:46.811 --> 19:49.215 [SPEAKER_06]: And so Bob would come over and then, Lonnie was like, well, I'm doing these cartoons. 19:49.236 --> 19:49.756 [SPEAKER_06]: We want you to do a voice. 19:49.776 --> 19:50.638 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm doing these cartoons. 19:50.718 --> 19:51.579 [SPEAKER_06]: Do you mind doing a voice? 19:51.760 --> 19:52.160 [SPEAKER_06]: And he's like, sure. 19:52.180 --> 19:56.067 [SPEAKER_06]: So, I'm going to say, I'm going to say, I'm going to say, I'm going to say, I'm going to say, I'm going to say, I'm going to say, I'm going to say, I'm going to say, I'm going 19:56.047 --> 20:00.572 [SPEAKER_06]: You know, comes over as long as Lonnie needs this particular voice. 20:00.592 --> 20:02.714 [SPEAKER_06]: He's got and he'll be over in a New York minute. 20:02.734 --> 20:03.134 [SPEAKER_06]: It's great. 20:03.795 --> 20:04.275 [SPEAKER_04]: I love it. 20:04.896 --> 20:05.036 [SPEAKER_03]: Hmm. 20:05.136 --> 20:05.336 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 20:05.677 --> 20:09.281 [SPEAKER_03]: Speaking of doing voices for cartoons, how did you get into doing Velma? 20:09.421 --> 20:11.803 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, that is, it's an iconic role. 20:12.183 --> 20:15.046 [SPEAKER_03]: I was, I'll let you guys know here in the bar, no. 20:15.287 --> 20:20.552 [SPEAKER_03]: My favorite Scooby character of the other than Scooby himself. 20:20.532 --> 20:25.761 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, your film is, film is the hot chick, and so, you know, I mean, you know, it's awesome. 20:25.921 --> 20:29.867 [SPEAKER_03]: Of course, we get many here because it's like hello, film is in the building. 20:29.887 --> 20:30.809 [SPEAKER_04]: Oh my gosh. 20:30.869 --> 20:31.550 [SPEAKER_04]: But how do you help her? 20:31.830 --> 20:32.672 [SPEAKER_04]: Yes, doing it. 20:32.792 --> 20:35.597 [SPEAKER_04]: I mean, I mean, auditioning, but it was luck of the Irish. 20:35.657 --> 20:40.785 [SPEAKER_04]: Though, the woman who had been doing her voice finally had aged out, and they were looking. 20:41.525 --> 21:10.975 [SPEAKER_04]: for a replacement should I say just as the franchise was going to take off again so they really wanted somebody who you know would be with the series and we were going to do DVDs and rides and all all kinds of things and I think there's this is their state farm and I vaguely remember hearing yes and there was that you know and it was an audition a callback another callback and then a third callback 21:11.343 --> 21:12.405 [SPEAKER_04]: that this person. 21:12.465 --> 21:18.914 [SPEAKER_04]: And so I, I gratefully, I mean, people talk about playing in iconic roles. 21:18.934 --> 21:19.114 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah. 21:19.915 --> 21:20.917 [SPEAKER_04]: I grew up with Velma. 21:21.177 --> 21:26.785 [SPEAKER_04]: So I, I still have to say, top two things I've done in my whole life. 21:27.326 --> 21:28.328 [SPEAKER_04]: It's voice Velma. 21:28.568 --> 21:30.210 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, it's pretty cool. 21:30.230 --> 21:30.831 [SPEAKER_03]: It's awesome. 21:31.492 --> 21:32.153 [SPEAKER_03]: It is awesome. 21:32.173 --> 21:41.046 [SPEAKER_03]: And I think with the, you know, last 10, 15 years as as the, the folks behind the Scooby gang kind of brought them back up, 21:41.026 --> 21:55.333 [SPEAKER_03]: There's been a lot more exploration of Velma's character, Velma's person, and her sexuality, and I laugh because of the fact that you are a great big LGBTQ plus advocate, which is like this is awesome. 21:55.954 --> 22:01.885 [SPEAKER_03]: And I have people out there who are like, owner and all Velma's this street list, and I'm like, no y'all, Velma's rocking it. 22:01.985 --> 22:03.408 [SPEAKER_03]: She's, you know, Velma's great. 22:03.548 --> 22:04.570 [SPEAKER_03]: So, 22:04.550 --> 22:10.195 [SPEAKER_03]: I just found it funny that I'm like, the voice comes through that the subtle things come through. 22:10.275 --> 22:18.182 [SPEAKER_03]: The care, the concern, the, it all comes through and to do that, you got to have somebody who's a really good actor and obviously, they do with you. 22:18.763 --> 22:24.228 [SPEAKER_04]: Well, I think that's something that I'm sure you and Jody have talked about in all of her voiceover stuff. 22:24.248 --> 22:24.608 [SPEAKER_04]: Is that? 22:24.688 --> 22:28.732 [SPEAKER_04]: I think that's the misnomer that, you know, oh, anybody can voice a character? 22:28.772 --> 22:34.557 [SPEAKER_04]: No, it's like, it actually, you have to have some chops to only work with your voice. 22:34.537 --> 22:40.828 [SPEAKER_04]: Um, yeah, I think that's still one of those big misunderstandings that it's like, well, I have a great voice. 22:40.908 --> 22:41.850 [SPEAKER_04]: I could do cartoons. 22:41.910 --> 22:43.332 [SPEAKER_04]: It's like, could you? 22:46.538 --> 22:51.105 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, like the people who go, well, you know, I could do a radio or I could do a podcast. 22:51.466 --> 22:52.187 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, exactly. 22:52.668 --> 22:53.870 [SPEAKER_04]: Exactly that. 22:54.030 --> 22:54.571 [SPEAKER_04]: Yes. 22:54.591 --> 22:55.513 [SPEAKER_03]: You're like, no. 22:56.575 --> 22:58.418 [SPEAKER_04]: There's, there's a bigger skill set involved. 22:58.618 --> 22:59.059 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah. 22:59.123 --> 23:00.506 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 23:00.526 --> 23:10.547 [SPEAKER_03]: Unfortunately, there are a lot of people out there who, and look, I don't mind people who are amateurs and commit to becoming professionals. 23:11.229 --> 23:17.622 [SPEAKER_03]: We talk about obviously about a lot of the news about politics here and there are two kinds of journalists. 23:18.277 --> 23:23.829 [SPEAKER_03]: they're the kind that go when they get their degree, which I

with you, Jolly. 24:11.278 --> 24:11.779 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 24:11.799 --> 24:12.100 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 24:12.120 --> 24:15.886 [SPEAKER_03]: It's I think I think she's I think like a lot of people who are on the right. 24:16.587 --> 24:17.829 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm friends with Bruce Bartlett. 24:18.710 --> 24:19.191 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay. 24:19.211 --> 24:26.944 [SPEAKER_03]: If you would ask, no, the the 12 year old me and I would have been like, wait a minute, the guy who's responsible for trickle down, stabbed me, stabbed me, 24:28.358 --> 24:30.302 [SPEAKER_03]: Hey, we're friends with Joe Walsh now. 24:30.863 --> 24:32.947 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, because we had Joe in here of the other day. 24:33.007 --> 24:33.689 [SPEAKER_03]: Last week. 24:34.170 --> 24:34.751 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah. 24:34.771 --> 24:35.452 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I mean. 24:35.552 --> 24:43.308 [SPEAKER_04]: I, I, I, I'm very much in the camp of I want to know what that messaging is on the side that I may not agree with. 24:43.769 --> 24:44.390 [SPEAKER_04]: Right. 24:44.530 --> 24:50.282 [SPEAKER_04]: And especially as I am moderate in certain areas. 24:50.988 --> 24:53.194 [SPEAKER_04]: I, I, I want to talk to people. 24:53.274 --> 24:57.887 [SPEAKER_04]: I want to just know what the messaging is so that I am clear about what's happening. 24:58.629 --> 24:58.809 [SPEAKER_04]: Right. 24:58.929 --> 25:06.550 [SPEAKER_04]: And I, I am one of those people who has an aversion to someone only dealing with one side of things and then not knowing. 25:06.530 --> 25:18.764 [SPEAKER_04]: What's like you did so I grew up in a family where there was debate and it was healthy debate and yes There was not punishment and there was not urine idiot and or or you're completely wrong It was why do you feel that way? 25:18.824 --> 25:23.209 [SPEAKER_04]: I'm so violently opposed how you feel Come try to convince me. 25:23.609 --> 25:26.332 [SPEAKER_04]: What is what am I not seeing and vice versa? 25:26.432 --> 25:35.102 [SPEAKER_04]: And so then to go out in the big bad world and realize people are so many people are just not interested in hearing what they don't want to hear 25:35.285 --> 25:40.835 [SPEAKER_04]: And want to stay, oh, I know, I know, you know, we don't. 25:41.356 --> 25:42.658 [SPEAKER_04]: Right, all the time. 25:42.718 --> 25:48.228 [SPEAKER_04]: So yeah, I like curiosity, and I like that in journalism and in my broadcaster. 25:48.629 --> 25:51.454 [SPEAKER_04]: I don't necessarily love commentary per se. 25:51.494 --> 25:56.022 [SPEAKER_04]: I like reporting, but I like to hear from someone who's informed. 25:56.303 --> 25:57.124 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah. 25:57.104 --> 26:10.455 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, I have a few weeks ago because one of our neighbors bought our other neighbors house when he passed away and so they renovating it so we went over there to see what was going on and I knew that they were Republicans 26:10.587 --> 26:27.428 [SPEAKER_06]: Um, but I did not know that one of them voted, I don't know if joded, but Dan definitely voted for Donald and we started talking and he was very angry and he's a very nice man, but he was very angry about some stuff and I was just listening and I said, but what about this? 26:27.848 --> 26:30.632 [SPEAKER_06]: And he goes, well, and I said, what do you believe in? 26:30.672 --> 26:33.996 [SPEAKER_06]: And he started to tell me I said, dude, you're not as conservative as you think you are. 26:33.976 --> 26:54.160 [SPEAKER_06]: You really aren't as conservative as you think you are, and the person you voted for is not in support of what you're support, and so that's all, I mean we parted company nicely and we're still, I mean we're, we're friends, but it's, it's just, it was interesting conference because I knew that he was a Trump supporter, but we had never talked about it. 26:54.301 --> 26:57.925 [SPEAKER_06]: He knows I'm a raging lib. 26:57.905 --> 27:02.351 [SPEAKER_06]: But it was it was it was a heated discussion at certain points. 27:02.371 --> 27:09.720 [SPEAKER_06]: I mean Lonnie and as I spend we're like often in other direction I'll just let them do that thing We'll go right here. 27:09.740 --> 27:13.104 [SPEAKER_06]: Look at the house We'll look at the cats. 27:13.164 --> 27:20.453 [SPEAKER_06]: They're very nice But yeah, I mean it was a good I was a longer conversation than I wanted I was just gonna walk there and then go home and go to bed but 27:20.433 --> 27:37.851 [SPEAKER_04]: We were there for like an hour and a half going there, but it was a nice and hugged as we left, you know, it was yes, you know, well, it was so interesting because on our on our crew of Pomeray, we are we are a very liberal bunches, you can imagine given the time and the flavor of our show. 27:37.831 --> 27:44.043 [SPEAKER_04]: However, comma, there are a few departments that are, and traditionally have always been extremely conservative. 27:44.103 --> 27:44.744 [SPEAKER_04]: Right. 27:44.764 --> 27:53.040 [SPEAKER_04]: And what was so fascinating in season one is there was a storyline about Leslie Bibbs character, Dina, having had a back street abortion. 27:53.661 --> 27:53.781 [SPEAKER_12]: Right. 27:54.672 --> 28:02.468 [SPEAKER_04]: And the gnarly thing is, our show takes place in 1969 and cut to literally the week we are filming that episode, Rove Weigh gets overturned. 28:03.410 --> 28:03.530 [SPEAKER_04]: Right. 28:03.550 --> 28:06.937 [SPEAKER_04]: And it was one of those, like, Oh, the arts. 28:07.979 --> 28:09.121 [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, my gosh, the art. 28:09.141 --> 28:13.069 [SPEAKER_04]: Like you know, it's just it is so incredible to 28:13.977 --> 28:40.643 [SPEAKER_03]: You know, obviously I'm on a press junket and so people talk about, well, 1969 and are there any parallels and it's like history repeats itself more often than we'd like it to it does, but I think it's important that especially for those people who do try to shut out the world that they don't like and yet they still invite in art, they still invite in TV movies and music and dance and theater and 28:40.623 --> 28:44.629 [SPEAKER_03]: And that's how you get in and that's how you get in where you can talk with them. 28:45.270 --> 28:45.730 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 28:45.750 --> 28:52.580 [SPEAKER_03]: And that's part of the reason that I think it's so important to include those things, to put those things in, to make those things part of the focus of some of the art. 28:53.101 --> 28:54.283 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah. 28:54.303 --> 28:56.866 [SPEAKER_03]: So I, I am fully in you. 28:57.247 --> 29:00.151 [SPEAKER_03]: Also Leslie Bib, another person, another actor. 29:00.291 --> 29:01.933 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, she is. 29:02.114 --> 29:04.437 [SPEAKER_06]: And she was a trumpet in white lotus. 29:05.142 --> 29:14.195 [SPEAKER_03]: She was, but as far as I've known her, I mean, I don't know her personally, but I mean, I, you know, I don't work as I, I love her, she sent out. 29:14.215 --> 29:14.395 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 29:14.495 --> 29:14.896 [SPEAKER_03]: Exactly. 29:15.397 --> 29:17.940 [SPEAKER_03]: Hey, can we have you around for another round, Minnie, please, please, please? 29:17.960 --> 29:18.261 [SPEAKER_03]: Love it. 29:18.601 --> 29:19.042 [SPEAKER_03]: I love it. 29:19.643 --> 29:20.083 [SPEAKER_03]: Thank you. 29:20.684 --> 29:26.933

[SPEAKER_04]: I did not show it either. 29:36.589 --> 29:40.175 [SPEAKER_04]: I did not peek in high school, but I said that. 29:40.195 --> 29:41.117 [SPEAKER_03]: I wouldn't even want that. 29:41.177 --> 29:41.898 [SPEAKER_03]: I did not either. 29:41.918 --> 29:43.561 [SPEAKER_03]: Look, in fresh enough, you drink. 29:43.601 --> 29:44.362 [SPEAKER_03]: It's a Tuesday night. 29:44.402 -->

[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe you're actually sitting on the train or the bus. 30:22.191 --> 30:22.492 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 30:22.512 --> 30:24.475 [SPEAKER_03]: Grab strangers, just grab their phone. 30:24.455

[SPEAKER_03]: We were talking about that funny Lonnie thing, you know, that voice over. 30:51.700 --> 30:57.428 [SPEAKER_03]: Many knows this by the way, she occasionally listens to Stephanie Miller, which, you know, is where Lonnie is working these days? 30:58.029 --> 30:58.310 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 30:59.271 --> 30:59.571 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah. 30:59.812 --> 31:00.333 [SPEAKER_03]: It's nice. 31:01.254 --> 31:01.474 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes. 31:02.315 --> 31:03.577 [SPEAKER_03]: Hey, anytime anybody gets work. 31:04.158 --> 31:12.411 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, you know, people who think it is interesting to me that people think that, you know, they're like, so what's she been doing since like the facts of life? 31:12.471 --> 31:13.532 [SPEAKER_03]: Now she's on Pomeran. 31:13.552 --> 31:16.737 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, 31:16.717 --> 31:19.300 [SPEAKER_03]: She's done a lot of stuff with voiceover work. 31:19.320 --> 31:20.821 [SPEAKER_03]: She's done a whole lot of other stuff. 31:20.841 --> 31:21.942 [SPEAKER_03]: You might want to try to check her. 31:22.042 --> 31:24.004 [SPEAKER_03]: IMVB, just saying, go and look. 31:24.465 --> 31:26.627 [SPEAKER_04]: No, I think it's, I am not alone. 31:26.647 --> 31:30.951 [SPEAKER_04]: And if somebody does something that has some level of success. 31:31.112 --> 31:37.398 [SPEAKER_04]: And then, you know, I haven't, since Pomerreal, there's nothing that's ever outside of Velma, of course. 31:38.639 --> 31:40.121 [SPEAKER_04]: That hasn't really hit that way. 31:40.181 --> 31:42.423 [SPEAKER_04]: So I understand where people come from, but it is. 31:42.483 --> 31:44.445 [SPEAKER_04]: So it's always so astounding. 31:45.016 --> 31:50.526 [SPEAKER_04]: the people think you've just been in a closet somewhere, counting your coins that they think you have. 31:50.847 --> 31:52.590 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I'm sure you would definitely get to do. 31:53.251 --> 31:58.241 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, this magical, like, you know, somehow we're all sitting on pucks of gold from the 80s. 31:58.902 --> 32:01.727 [SPEAKER_04]: No, I've supported myself as an actor for the last 40 years. 32:01.988 --> 32:07.378 [SPEAKER_04]: So it's something I'm very proud of, but I also don't expect people to have seen 32:07.358 --> 32:09.341 [SPEAKER_04]: everything or anything that I've done. 32:09.441 --> 32:17.393 [SPEAKER_04]: So this Palmarial gift has also been really lovely that people have actually been watching. 32:17.413 --> 32:28.349 [SPEAKER_06]: It's no mom didn't tell me you were on the show when we first started watching it and when you came on screen and I went, hey, that's me and I'm like, I wish a high school, that's me. 32:30.372 --> 32:33.737 [SPEAKER_06]: Like I did the same when I saw Paul Sand come on. 32:33.717 --> 32:39.108 [SPEAKER_06]: And Lanya was like, who's Paul San and I'm like, okay, once we're done, you're a fan? 32:39.268 --> 32:47.524 [SPEAKER_06]: Yes, well, you're going down a carabernet Paul San, K-Hall and I had to go to bed because I was working for Stephanie at the time. 32:47.791 --> 32:51.636 [SPEAKER_06]: And he did, he was up for like three hours watching Paul Sand. 32:51.796 --> 32:52.977 [SPEAKER_06]: And he goes, caught he's funny. 32:52.997 --> 32:56.902 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm like, yes, genius, yes, genius. 32:57.222 --> 33:07.755 [SPEAKER_03]: Look, the fun thing is when you know that the casting directors and the writers and the people who were involved with Paul Morale had to know, they had to know your work. 33:08.055 --> 33:13.482 [SPEAKER_03]: They had to know the work of a lot of the other people and be like, I wonder how this person would work. 33:13.602 --> 33:14.543 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, that would work good. 33:14.623 --> 33:17.747 [SPEAKER_03]: And they actually had to sit down and think about that. 33:17.727 --> 33:38.824 [SPEAKER_04]: Here's what's darling about that is that when I when I booked it, I remember the show runner, Abe Sylvia just so lovely lovely you know just said when your tape came through, it was like Kristen and I both screamed at the same time and started to dance and it 33:39.142 --> 33:40.665 [SPEAKER_04]: It made me feel so good. 33:41.066 --> 33:42.490 [SPEAKER_04]: It just was so lovely. 33:42.550 --> 33:48.884 [SPEAKER_04]: You know, that they not only thought I was right for Ann Holiday, but that they had been fans. 33:49.105 --> 33:50.147 [SPEAKER_04]: And that's, 33:50.735 --> 33:51.656 [SPEAKER_04]: That's just wonderful. 33:51.877 --> 33:56.864 [SPEAKER_04]: That's just because I have been on the other end of that where it's like, oh my god, we love Natalie. 33:56.884 --> 34:00.550 [SPEAKER_04]: She's not right for our project, you know, because sort of being tight cast. 34:00.630 --> 34:17.535 [SPEAKER_04]: So, you know, to be on the other side of that and instead go, oh my gosh, I grew up with you and yeah, your perfect for this part, let's go, was very dreamy and still is a pinch me moment truly and especially for season two where thanks to Abe, 34:18.477 --> 34:25.066 [SPEAKER_04]: almost single-handedly in a little of Kristen and starts to become a part of the story instead of just reporting on the women. 34:25.126 --> 34:26.949 [SPEAKER_04]: She actually becomes a part of a hygiene. 34:26.969 --> 34:28.731 [SPEAKER_04]: I was worried she was gonna die. 34:28.832 --> 34:30.394 [SPEAKER_04]: It's season 1. 34:30.414 --> 34:31.996 [SPEAKER_04]: I know I was very concerned. 34:32.036 --> 34:33.959 [SPEAKER_04]: I didn't make a phone call to aid, but I read that script. 34:33.979 --> 34:36.182 [SPEAKER_04]: It was like, oh. 34:36.162 --> 34:44.640 [SPEAKER_04]: So, you know, not only is, you know, and back for season 2, but she's, she's back and involved in the storyline and involved with the ladies in a different way. 34:44.780 --> 34:46.484 [SPEAKER_04]: And it, it was such a thrill. 34:46.624 --> 34:48.548 [SPEAKER_04]: And I'm, I cannot wait for people to see it. 34:49.170 --> 34:49.590 [SPEAKER_06]: I want to be there. 34:49.611 --> 34:50.532 [SPEAKER_04]: When does it start? 34:50.553 --> 34:53.158 [SPEAKER_04]: Let alone for what your mom, um, 34:53.138 --> 34:53.779 [SPEAKER_04]: That's done. 34:53.839 --> 34:55.021 [SPEAKER_04]: Holy hell. 34:55.241 --> 34:57.604 [SPEAKER_04]: I guess they realized we have Carol Burnett. 34:57.945 --> 35:00.508 [SPEAKER_04]: Let's not only let her not be in a coma. 35:00.528 --> 35:02.431 [SPEAKER_04]: Let's just give her too much to do. 35:02.851 --> 35:03.632 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh no. 35:04.333 --> 35:05.355 [SPEAKER_06]: Let's get her all the things. 35:05.495 --> 35:06.256 [SPEAKER_06]: Let's give her everything. 35:06.296 --> 35:07.838 [SPEAKER_06]: She knows everybody's lines, right? 35:07.898 --> 35:08.439 [SPEAKER_06]: No. 35:09.400 --> 35:14.547 [SPEAKER_06]: No, when she a friend of mine literally emailed me, I think it was episode three of season one. 35:15.669 --> 35:18.032 [SPEAKER_06]: He's like your mom's funny in a coma. 35:18.400 --> 35:22.166 [SPEAKER_06]: Yes, really hard to be funny in a coma. 35:22.186 --> 35:25.371 [SPEAKER_06]: But she was funny in a coma. 35:25.391 --> 35:35.447 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I do I do have to say they through everything at her for season two, which I'm sure you're aware of and she she not only caught it she threw back. 35:35.815 --> 35:42.408 [SPEAKER_04]: So, um, I think people are in for a genuine treat, um, on all fronts for all characters. 35:42.588 --> 35:43.049 [SPEAKER_03]: It's great. 35:43.069 --> 35:49.060 [SPEAKER_03]: The promo is, uh, I've seen a couple of different promos that were out there that Apple TV ties out there and and it does. 35:49.080 --> 35:51.545 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, obviously, it interspersed as Carol in a lot of places. 35:52.026 --> 35:53.649 [SPEAKER_03]: I've seen you multiple times. 35:53.789 --> 35:55.973 [SPEAKER_03]: I've seen Kristen multiple times. 35:56.013 --> 35:58.498 [SPEAKER_03]: And I said, and I sit there and I'm going, 35:58.546 --> 36:00.568 [SPEAKER_03]: they're not giving anything away. 36:00.608 --> 36:09.716 [SPEAKER_03]: What they're giving a lot of just they're showing a lot of what the show is without giving anything away, which I think we've kind of done a little bit here as we're talking tonight. 36:10.357 --> 36:11.538 [SPEAKER_03]: It's great. 36:11.558 --> 36:12.439 [SPEAKER_03]: The look is great. 36:12.459 --> 36:13.820 [SPEAKER_03]: The costume is must be a blast. 36:14.821 --> 36:15.061 [SPEAKER_04]: Yes. 36:15.442 --> 36:16.663 [SPEAKER_04]: And our steps and just. 36:16.683 --> 36:17.143 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh my god. 36:17.243 --> 36:26.832 [SPEAKER_04]: It's the drop and I think what it sees them one was just kind of a 36:27.098 --> 36:34.866 [SPEAKER_04]: And an Abe and Kristen have hit the gas and I just, I hope people love it as much as we love to making it. 36:34.966 --> 36:36.108 [SPEAKER_04]: It is a true romp. 36:36.128 --> 36:37.509 [SPEAKER_04]: I mean, it is a ride buckle up. 36:38.250 --> 36:42.394 [SPEAKER_03]: Now, the big question for those who like season one and then season two is coming out. 36:43.356 --> 36:44.717 [SPEAKER_04]: Number number 12 12. 36:44.737 --> 36:44.917 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes. 36:45.037 --> 36:46.419 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, a couple weeks. 36:46.439 --> 36:46.779 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 36:46.799 --> 36:48.141 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 36:49.322 --> 36:53.106 [SPEAKER_03]: Is there any discussion already of season three perhaps or 36:53.491 --> 36:59.276 [SPEAKER_04]: Now it would be the time to turn around and get that candle out on top of the bar and light it and rub it with it. 36:59.336 --> 37:00.337 [SPEAKER_04]: It'll get out of the leads. 37:00.357 --> 37:08.724 [SPEAKER_04]: Whatever else you got to do, because we would all really love to go again, but it really is up to the Apple guy. 37:08.744 --> 37:09.505 [SPEAKER_06]: Power's the B. 37:09.625 --> 37:09.925 [SPEAKER_06]: Yes. 37:09.945 --> 37:14.670 [SPEAKER_03]: Look at what I tell everybody these days especially, especially when interacting with the media. 37:15.130 --> 37:21.996 [SPEAKER_03]: Media in general, yes, there are a lot of garbage, media handles, even for professional stuff. 37:22.398 --> 37:26.304 [SPEAKER_03]: But there are a number of places that actually have people on the ends of them. 37:26.384 --> 37:34.556 [SPEAKER_03]: So find the the stuff that is related to Palm Royale, find Apple TV, find emails, find socials and be like, I love this. 37:34.716 --> 37:35.497 [SPEAKER_03]: I love Mindy. 37:35.678 --> 37:37.240 [SPEAKER_03]: She's freaking awesome. 37:37.260 --> 37:44.170 [SPEAKER_03]: I love you know, whoever whoever people's favorite characters is and be like, what they like about the show and respond and reply. 37:44.150 --> 37:47.055 [SPEAKER_03]: it doesn't just work for our elected officials. 37:47.235 --> 37:49.159 [SPEAKER_03]: It also works for the media. 37:49.179 --> 37:56.011 [SPEAKER_03]: And especially if you know, if you're watching news media, like we were talking earlier, decent journalists, if you got a decent journalist, thank them for doing it. 37:56.552 --> 38:03.424 [SPEAKER_03]: If somebody does something, and you have experience, you have, I'm trying to remember degree in is it sociology? 38:03.573 --> 38:07.097 [SPEAKER_04]: My that was my BA, and then I have a master's in education. 38:07.618 --> 38:11.964 [SPEAKER_04]: Okay, so clearly I'm scolded a little bit, but I learned it. 38:13.846 --> 38:23.218 [SPEAKER_03]: But that that helps when when somebody like the the the wife of the WWE founder, it is you know, supposedly the secretary of education. 38:23.198 --> 38:28.344 [SPEAKER_03]: And she's saying something stupid, you can actually critique that person. 38:28.364 --> 38:34.711 [SPEAKER_03]: And be like, I'm sorry, but- And people should, people, people, everybody does the same thing. 38:34.731 --> 38:36.793 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't care how famous or infamous you are. 38:36.853 --> 38:39.557 [SPEAKER_03]: People are like, I'm just me, nobody cares. 38:39.717 --> 38:41.138 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, people care. 38:41.599 --> 38:43.881 [SPEAKER_03]: And especially if you know what you're talking about, they care. 38:44.002 --> 38:48.126 [SPEAKER_04]: I have to say there have been many times where I have wanted to run for office. 38:48.367 --> 38:51.050 [SPEAKER_04]: And for a term, like, you know, getting it out. 38:51.390 --> 38:52.311 [SPEAKER_04]: Right. 38:52.291 --> 38:57.077 [SPEAKER_04]: And I just, um, it's so, there's no way and holy hell I would do it. 38:58.059 --> 39:00.682 [SPEAKER_04]: Just because I am private and like a personal life. 39:01.323 --> 39:16.623 [SPEAKER_04]: And it, and it bums me out so much because I know so many people, obviously not just in my industry, but that would be so great to have either up in Washington or in our state capital for a good two or four-year stint, that just won't. 39:16.863 --> 39:20.408 [SPEAKER_04]: They take themselves out because they don't want to deal with. 39:20.725 --> 39:24.892 [SPEAKER_03]: Don't think they know enough where they don't think that they've got it. 39:25.032 --> 39:27.897 [SPEAKER_03]: And I know people should try. 39:27.937 --> 39:30.441 [SPEAKER_03]: There is a man I'm helping people really try. 39:30.461 --> 39:32.184 [SPEAKER_03]: I also too. 39:32.204 --> 39:33.507 [SPEAKER_03]: You've heard of run for something. 39:33.667 --> 39:34.809 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm in a litman's group. 39:34.829 --> 39:36.872 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes I absolutely recommend. 39:37.193 --> 39:37.593 [SPEAKER_03]: I look. 39:37.633 --> 39:39.757 [SPEAKER_03]: I have my my beef with virtually everybody. 39:39.797 --> 39:44.505 [SPEAKER_03]: I have my own beef with me I look at the mirror and I'm like you got a problem dude, but um 39:44.485 --> 40:10.324 [SPEAKER_03]: But I think that people should get involved with something like run for something and and make sure that they are get involved with indivisible if you don't want to run but maybe you want to be a community advocate that's fine the idea that that I'm just a person and nobody cares what I think no people care and especially if you know what you're talking about people should care I think yeah no I think and I think differing voices is so. 40:10.709 --> 40:16.437 [SPEAKER_04]: brutally important especially now that we be a little bit more vocal than even we're comfortable doing. 40:17.439 --> 40:19.282 [SPEAKER_04]: I think I think it would hurt to practice that. 40:19.842 --> 40:20.203 [SPEAKER_06]: I agree. 40:20.463 --> 40:20.804 [SPEAKER_06]: I agree. 40:21.144 --> 40:25.811 [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, with the with the no kings marchers that keep getting bigger and bigger, which is great. 40:26.472 --> 40:28.615 [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, the Idaho, the boysy turnout. 40:28.635 --> 40:39.231 [SPEAKER_06]: And that's Idaho, you know, turns out, turns out that the village is in Florida. 40:39.751 --> 40:40.412 [SPEAKER_06]: This is good. 40:40.492 --> 40:43.216 [SPEAKER_06]: This is, that's why it scares the crap at a Donald. 40:43.696 --> 40:45.559 [SPEAKER_06]: It just scares him yet. 40:45.579 --> 40:48.343 [SPEAKER_04]: What's the other countries too, sort of? 40:48.363 --> 40:51.006 [SPEAKER_04]: Think of the, that's also been very affirming. 40:51.447 --> 40:53.810 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I mean, they're like, yes, no kings on our end either. 40:53.870 --> 40:54.511 [SPEAKER_06]: Thank you very much. 40:54.551 --> 40:57.015 [SPEAKER_06]: We don't like that guy either as much as he says that we do. 40:57.075 --> 40:58.196 [SPEAKER_06]: We don't. 40:58.216 --> 40:58.437 [SPEAKER_06]: Right. 40:58.457 --> 41:00.760 [SPEAKER_06]: You know, reality is reality no matter who you are. 41:00.780 --> 41:04.305 [SPEAKER_06]: We were talking about on Bob show how, what's wrong with Maga? 41:04.325 --> 41:05.947 [SPEAKER_06]: Why do they believe things that are untrue? 41:06.067 --> 41:09.572 [SPEAKER_06]: Is it a mental disorder and David and I were like, 41:10.193 --> 41:11.537 [SPEAKER_03]: I think a lot of it too is the media. 41:12.039 --> 41:19.663 [SPEAKER_03]: I still think that people do not give the media enough credence for the power that all of us have. 41:19.947 --> 41:24.311 [SPEAKER_03]: And especially the people who are in the news media, it drives me now. 41:24.331 --> 41:25.653 [SPEAKER_03]: It's I've said this for years, man. 41:25.793 --> 41:31.358 [SPEAKER_03]: And Jody can affirm to this that I think the news industry itself needs to regulate itself as to what is news. 41:31.378 --> 41:35.502 [SPEAKER_03]: Not have the government regulated, but have the industry itself regulated for quality purposes. 41:35.963 --> 41:41.328 [SPEAKER_03]: So that way you have this is actual quality news and this is, you know, opinion, punditry, whatever. 41:41.428 --> 41:49.836 [SPEAKER_04]: Well, unfortunately Sean, I think most news media outlets have become entertainment under the guys of entertainment instead of news. 41:49.816 --> 41:50.156 [SPEAKER_03]: right. 41:50.497 --> 41:51.919 [SPEAKER_04]: Thank you. 41:53.080 --> 42:05.935 [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, and I do think they've become a slave to the ratings and become a slave to certain populists that unfortunately or fortunately, like depending, you know, some people have really thrived in the commentary aisle. 42:07.157 --> 42:13.845 [SPEAKER_04]: But unfortunately, if that is only what you're watching in, whether you're on the right or the left, I think it's a mistake. 42:14.246 --> 42:17.950 [SPEAKER_04]: And I try to find a new source, 42:17.930 --> 42:19.072 [SPEAKER_04]: Oh, they're fantastic. 42:19.092 --> 42:26.186 [SPEAKER_04]: I'm a nightly news person because I also just want to hear what's going on in the rest of the world, which naturally it can not to do. 42:26.988 --> 42:27.208 [SPEAKER_04]: Right. 42:27.228 --> 42:37.288 [SPEAKER_04]: So I'd like to, yeah, I'm hoping we can swing the pendulum a little back the other way where journalism and journalists feel safe to just journal. 42:37.268 --> 42:39.835 [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, I would love that Lord that. 42:39.875 --> 42:49.140 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, remember when the news broadcasts were the loss leader for the networks and then all of a sudden, it was taken into the entertainment, and that's when they had to start making money. 42:49.480 --> 42:51.586 [SPEAKER_06]: Otherwise, they were losing money, and that's fine. 42:52.188 --> 42:52.729 [SPEAKER_05]: That's right. 42:52.709 --> 43:01.741 [SPEAKER_03]: That's where we had the crong fights and the break leads into those people do the entertainment because people like many cone actually know what they're doing. 43:01.781 --> 43:07.588 [SPEAKER_03]: See, she's a professional and some of the folks who are just kind of quote unquote news hacks. 43:07.828 --> 43:09.230 [SPEAKER_03]: They don't know what they're doing that way. 43:09.250 --> 43:12.895 [SPEAKER_03]: They could they could never be a good actress like you many just said. 43:13.364 --> 43:13.705 [SPEAKER_03]: Thanks. 43:15.789 --> 43:16.170 [SPEAKER_03]: We'll give it. 43:16.210 --> 43:16.912 [SPEAKER_03]: We love it. 43:16.932 --> 43:20.300 [SPEAKER_03]: Look, can we get you back here, maybe some time in the future here at the politics bar? 43:20.741 --> 43:21.603 [SPEAKER_04]: Any time. 43:22.003 --> 43:26.293 [SPEAKER_04]: Any time you are always available, don't let that message get out too far. 43:27.218 --> 43:28.519 [SPEAKER_04]: Well, you're available. 43:28.940 --> 43:55.386 [SPEAKER_03]: Right, right, right, right, it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's

44:03.867 --> 44:05.172 [SPEAKER_07]: Pink, red, a call. 44:05.192 --> 44:09.529 [SPEAKER_01]: Think at the far, wherever you are. 44:09.549 --> 44:09.930 [SPEAKER_07]: The politics march. 44:09.950 --> 44:12.480 [SPEAKER_07]: Shotsmith, Harrison, Jody Hamilton. 44:13.625 --> 44:21.216 [SPEAKER_03]: I was this close to doing something else, but you were drinking, I did not want to create a spit take there. 44:21.276 --> 44:22.658 [SPEAKER_03]: I was trying really hard. 44:22.899 --> 44:26.304 [SPEAKER_03]: You know, just, you know, look, you don't want to spit around the bar here. 44:26.364 --> 44:31.792 [SPEAKER_03]: Look, you know, as we say, we aim to please you aim to please, also involved with cleaning. 44:31.932 --> 44:33.895 [SPEAKER_03]: So, you don't need to do any extra that. 44:33.875 --> 44:40.264 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, thank you for those of you who are coming in and joining us this hour from wherever you happen to be, whether that happens to be. 44:40.284 --> 44:40.865 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know. 44:40.885 --> 44:43.229 [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe you're listening at AM-950 Minneapolis Saint Paul. 44:43.589 --> 44:45.552 [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe you're listening to the detour talk in Tennessee. 44:46.013 --> 44:54.465 [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe you are listening on AM-820 Chicago WCPT or maybe you're listening on progressive voices radio worldwide or whatever you want to be or maybe. 44:54.445 --> 45:21.347 [SPEAKER_03]: Maybe you're listening on Georgian now radio down at the ATL, Ron Roberts of the Ron show is going to be here this hour, and we are very excited to have him back in the bar because Georgian now, you know, we used to have America one, and then Georgian now is kind of an expansion, and in Ronald talk all about that, and of course about how Georgia politics is going, how this shutdown is affecting the folks down in the Peach state. 45:21.547 --> 45:27.944 [SPEAKER_06]: She was she she she's just I'm so glad that that I got to hook up with her again, you know, it's great. 45:27.964 --> 45:33.700 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, 40 plus here connect with her not hook up because you have not yet. 45:35.367 --> 45:38.491 [SPEAKER_03]: for those of you who were in the bar earlier, you understand what the word half means. 45:41.596 --> 45:46.663 [SPEAKER_03]: I am glad that she got to be here, and I do think, if you have Miss Palm Royale, you actually should see it. 45:46.683 --> 45:48.586 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, it's Apple TV, just go sign up. 45:48.606 --> 45:51.550 [SPEAKER_06]: Watch, I'm gonna rewatch season one before the 12th, just kidding. 45:51.570 --> 45:55.536 [SPEAKER_03]: I guess I'm gonna watch season one before season two, so thank you. 45:55.516 --> 46:14.638 [SPEAKER_03]: We do have more of the news on tap, but I do think we should get to that drink of the day-to-day Jody because you know, it's so the today's drink of the day has got a very important lesson, I think About how history repeats itself, which I if I remember right is something that many was saying here's last year 46:14.973 --> 46:26.691 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, so we haven't referenced it as much because we were talking with many about other things, but what is the drink of the day and what is it inspired by our surrounding today? 46:26.891 --> 46:29.335 [SPEAKER_06]: What's literally called what it's inspired by? 46:30.417 --> 46:33.521 [SPEAKER_06]: The Vosted Act, which was how we got prohibition. 46:36.105 --> 46:39.090 [SPEAKER_06]: So this bar could not have had what we normally make. 46:39.239 --> 46:43.883 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, or a lot of anything this well, unless we were a speakeasy, which hey, I'd be good with that. 46:43.903 --> 46:46.866 [SPEAKER_03]: I would have been cool to be in this, well, somewhat cool being a speakeasy. 46:46.886 --> 46:57.656 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, you know, you got to catch up to the law back then, but yeah, for those of you who do not know on this date, October 28th, 19 19, that was the passage of Prohibition. 46:58.637 --> 47:06.664 [SPEAKER_03]: And Prohibition was the 18th Amendment, and then they needed a way to actually apply it. 47:07.522 --> 47:10.774 [SPEAKER_06]: So they can't blame people being drunk for passing the 19th Amendment them. 47:12.621 --> 47:12.962 [SPEAKER_03]: Ha ha ha ha. 47:13.364 --> 47:15.692 [SPEAKER_03]: Good point, this is true. 47:16.820 --> 47:20.386 [SPEAKER_06]: And this is a mock tale for those of you that are sober, who because it's prohibition day. 47:20.466 --> 47:22.269 [SPEAKER_03]: So, exactly, there you go. 47:23.552 --> 47:31.285 [SPEAKER_03]: The long of the short, the way that it ties into things today, for those of you who don't remember your history, Joni did a really good write up, and I did a little editing. 47:31.565 --> 47:31.866 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, you did. 47:31.886 --> 47:37.395 [SPEAKER_03]: Actually, we had one of our wonderful people here in the bar mentioned something. 47:37.415 --> 47:41.983 [SPEAKER_03]: He was like, you missed it, Sean, you misspelled the word. 47:41.963 --> 47:42.924 [SPEAKER_03]: And he was correct. 47:42.964 --> 47:44.166 [SPEAKER_03]: He absolutely was correct. 47:44.186 --> 47:45.607 [SPEAKER_00]: It wasn't me. 47:45.627 --> 47:47.249 [SPEAKER_03]: No, no, I did that one. 47:47.349 --> 47:47.810 [SPEAKER_03]: I did that one. 47:47.890 --> 47:48.270 [SPEAKER_03]: Absolutely. 47:48.491 --> 47:49.332 [SPEAKER_03]: It's my fault on that. 47:49.352 --> 47:49.972 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry about that. 47:50.032 --> 47:53.016 [SPEAKER_03]: But you know, it's nice. 47:53.136 --> 47:54.337 [SPEAKER_03]: It's nice that you guys do that. 47:54.357 --> 47:58.062 [SPEAKER_03]: But Jeffrey, thank you very much for noting that the word is is flouting, not flunting. 47:58.182 --> 47:58.682 [SPEAKER_03]: But there you go. 47:58.802 --> 47:59.023 [SPEAKER_06]: Yes. 47:59.103 --> 48:00.725 [SPEAKER_06]: Those are vastly different words. 48:01.446 --> 48:02.567 [SPEAKER_03]: Lastly, different words. 48:02.927 --> 48:03.328 [SPEAKER_03]: My brain. 48:03.448 --> 48:04.489 [SPEAKER_03]: My fingers went one way. 48:04.529 --> 48:05.290 [SPEAKER_03]: My brain went the other way. 48:05.310 --> 48:08.994 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, when I said to some Jesus people the other day, though, is a satinist. 48:09.034 --> 48:10.536 [SPEAKER_06]: And I spelled satinist. 48:10.516 --> 48:25.679 [SPEAKER_06]: I do like that I look you know well it did get them out that I was very nice about it and they were like well thank you and I said bless you and they said thank you and just you know I'll drop it away. 48:25.719 --> 48:32.389 [SPEAKER_03]: I'll have to tell the story about my friend Rick Faith some other day but father Faith what to talk about that at some point but I 48:32.369 --> 48:38.177 [SPEAKER_03]: The story today on the Volstead Act and the drink of the day, which is the Volstead Act mocktail. 48:39.078 --> 48:41.421 [SPEAKER_03]: For those of you who don't know the history, we'll buzz it here quick. 48:41.441 --> 48:54.459 [SPEAKER_03]: The end of the 1910s, which was, you know, after the first World War, there was a lot of anti-immigrant prejudice, a lot of suspicion of foreigners, if that sounds familiar, yeah, it's because we're dealing with it now. 48:54.479 --> 48:56.822 [SPEAKER_06]: This is Germans mainly at the time, I believe. 48:57.423 --> 48:59.406 [SPEAKER_03]: Uh-huh, Germans in Irish. 48:59.386 --> 49:21.925 [SPEAKER_03]: But especially Germans because they were saying you know that the Germans were enemy and were one way and a lot of the Germans who had emigrated They they brought over breweries and distilleries and bars and a lot of those places were frequented by emigrants So the quote unquote dirty white people as they used to call them as well as the brown people in the black people because People who are looked down on oftentimes Cogregate together. 49:22.005 --> 49:23.367 [SPEAKER_03]: We all know how it works. 49:23.587 --> 49:25.090 [SPEAKER_03]: We've all been there 49:25.070 --> 49:29.637 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, and unfortunately, it's exactly the same thing and it's driven by the same thing. 49:29.657 --> 49:35.025 [SPEAKER_03]: It was driven by right wing extremism then and the right wing extrem extremism created prohibition. 49:35.727 --> 49:38.170 [SPEAKER_03]: Now, there are millions of Americans who do what anything to do with that. 49:38.451 --> 49:44.100 [SPEAKER_03]: So they created secret breweries, secret distilleries, moonshine runners, speak easy operators. 49:44.120 --> 49:50.790 [SPEAKER_03]: There was this whole, uh, unregulated economy of organized crime that popped up. 49:50.922 --> 49:58.693 [SPEAKER_03]: And then, of course, there was this whole organized police raids and, you know, kind of like CBP and ICE these days. 49:59.414 --> 49:59.735 [SPEAKER_12]: Yeah. 50:00.556 --> 50:06.945 [SPEAKER_03]: Literally, the two of them, it was, it was somewhat of a racket because it didn't actually stop people from drinking. 50:07.566 --> 50:08.948 [SPEAKER_03]: It didn't stop. 50:09.063 --> 50:25.620 [SPEAKER_03]: people from making bad alcohol getting sick and going blind uh... yeah caused it caused way more problems which is often times the case with right wing extremist policies well i mean it pro like finally now that uh... cannabis is legal in most states right 50:25.600 --> 50:29.849 [SPEAKER_06]: There is no illegal cannabis self anymore. 50:29.929 --> 50:30.831 [SPEAKER_03]: There's a lot less. 50:30.871 --> 50:31.593 [SPEAKER_03]: There are a lot less. 50:31.633 --> 50:32.895 [SPEAKER_03]: And rest for those kinds of things. 50:32.935 --> 50:37.786 [SPEAKER_03]: There's a lot less of the police actions that go along with those kind of things. 50:37.826 --> 50:39.790 [SPEAKER_03]: You're not seeing as many stories or as many reports. 50:39.870 --> 50:41.854 [SPEAKER_03]: And there aren't as many happening. 50:41.986 --> 50:45.733 [SPEAKER_03]: because of the legalization and proper regulation. 50:45.793 --> 50:52.807 [SPEAKER_03]: Now, my state, you know, my original home state in Nebraska, they've got problems with how they're regulating their marijuana sales and it's ridiculous. 50:52.867 --> 50:58.518 [SPEAKER_03]: Basically, they're trying to quote unquote regulated, but do it in such a way that it almost effectively bands and it's stupid. 50:59.220 --> 51:03.488 [SPEAKER_03]: But in and in so doing, it's already started to create a black market. 51:03.788 --> 51:18.060 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, yeah, I mean, because then you're your previous pot dealers are now dealing it again, because unless they open their own cannabis hydron, he used to cry a lot bainer, doesn't he, you know, a cannabis company? 51:18.722 --> 51:20.025 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I think he's involved with that. 51:20.045 --> 51:20.365 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 51:20.386 --> 51:20.927 [SPEAKER_03]: Now, yeah. 51:21.087 --> 51:21.949 [SPEAKER_06]: So it's like, 51:23.363 --> 51:24.385 [SPEAKER_06]: There's a lot of money in it. 51:24.485 --> 51:29.032 [SPEAKER_06]: Unfortunately, tax-wise and cash-wise and banking-wise right now still weird. 51:29.573 --> 51:33.900 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, and that was one of the reasons why they ended prohibition in 1933. 51:34.021 --> 51:35.804 [SPEAKER_03]: In fact, so here's the deal. 51:35.844 --> 51:39.109 [SPEAKER_03]: For all those people who are like, oh my God, you're a tumor. 51:39.129 --> 51:48.865 [SPEAKER_03]: You're like things suck in the world sucks right now, and it's all bad, and it's all awful, and oh my God, they were thinking a lot of this kind of thing in the wake of World War I when prohibition came up. 51:50.060 --> 52:00.061 [SPEAKER_03]: And yes, it took a while, but it took a lot of people doing a lot of hard work to eventually get past it FDR campaign one of his big campaign promises with that he would get rid of prohibition. 52:01.104 --> 52:01.565 [SPEAKER_03]: He got in. 52:02.026 --> 52:03.008 [SPEAKER_03]: They got rid of prohibition. 52:03.389 --> 52:05.212 [SPEAKER_03]: So, you're later. 52:05.293 --> 52:09.722 [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, he was it was the same year he was inaugurated like months later. 52:09.871 --> 52:10.191 [SPEAKER_03]: correct. 52:10.692 --> 52:16.380 [SPEAKER_03]: So the idea that, oh, it's all stupid and awful and, you know, stop that, stop that. 52:16.541 --> 52:18.403 [SPEAKER_03]: Look, there, there are reasons to celebrate. 52:18.624 --> 52:19.865 [SPEAKER_03]: And there are drinks to celebrate. 52:20.286 --> 52:22.950 [SPEAKER_03]: Like, for example, the full-stad act mocktail. 52:22.990 --> 52:24.312 [SPEAKER_03]: You can celebrate with one of those. 52:24.332 --> 52:24.773 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah. 52:25.193 --> 52:27.897 [SPEAKER_03]: Jody, what is in this mocktail drink that we have today? 52:28.180 --> 52:32.907 [SPEAKER_06]: OK, so you're going to need a shaker, ice for the shaker, and separate ice

Two ounces of pineapple juice, three-quarter ounces of lime juice, three-quarter ounces of ginger syrup, and there's a way to make it. 52:44.988 --> 52:49.521 [SPEAKER_03]: Ah, you have included that on the rest of the report to subscribe so you can get that guys. 52:49.541 --> 52:51.486 [SPEAKER_06]: Uh, quarter teaspoon of turmeric. 52:52.208 --> 52:53.051 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay. 52:53.071 --> 52:53.171 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay. 52:53.191 --> 52:54.635 [SPEAKER_06]: And two ounces of club soda. 52:55.357 --> 52:55.558 [SPEAKER_06]: All right. 52:55.578 --> 53:00.010 [SPEAKER_06]: And then you garnish with dried pineapple leaves and dried pineapple slices if you can find them. 52:59.990 --> 53:03.256 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay, it shouldn't be too much. 53:03.296 --> 53:06.823 [SPEAKER_03]: This ginger syrup is easy or is it complex? 53:07.163 --> 53:08.165 [SPEAKER_06]: It's pretty easy. 53:08.185 --> 53:08.967 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay. 53:09.428 --> 53:17.222 [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, you just peel some ginger, add to a saucepan, add a half cup sugar, half cup but it's like you're making simple syrup but with ginger in it basically. 53:17.438 --> 53:28.395 [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, that's that's easy

ad act of mock tail? 53:28.415 --> 53:45.201 [SPEAKER_06]: Okay, what you do is you combine everything except for the club soda in a shaker with ice and shake it until chilled And then you strain that into the rocks glass filled with its effort ice and then you top it with the club soda and stir briefly And then you garnish with the dried pineapple leaves and pineapple slices and it's um 53:45.181 --> 53:48.019 [SPEAKER_06]: It sounds very refreshing to me. 53:48.202 --> 53:53.507 [SPEAKER_03]: It's a drink that you can absolutely celebrate to and it and drink a lot of them and you're not going

I had to change one of the stories I had to update it because we had that Greg Bovino was going to get a court. 54:24.225 --> 54:25.046 [SPEAKER_03]: He did go to court. 54:25.307 --> 54:26.207 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, okay. 54:26.227 --> 54:27.629 [SPEAKER_03]: And he got his ass handed down. 54:27.649 --> 54:28.189 [SPEAKER_03]: Good. 54:28.209 --> 54:31.152 [SPEAKER_03]: Judge Sarah Ellis was absolutely pissed at him. 54:32.053 --> 54:39.341 [SPEAKER_03]: He also, he couldn't prove to the judge that he didn't throw that tear gas canister because there's video of him throwing the canister. 54:39.621 --> 54:40.482 [SPEAKER_03]: Right, exactly. 54:40.782 --> 54:43.605 [SPEAKER_03]: So the judge, basically, 54:44.885 --> 54:55.502 [SPEAKER_03]: She, she didn't go as far as she could have, but this is, this is the point is that you guys need to be standing up for the things that are great. 54:56.523 --> 55:02.933 [SPEAKER_03]: Nobody's invincible, even somebody like Greg Bavino, who is the head of the Border Patrol, which we've got some more new. 55:02.953 --> 55:03.715 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that's scary. 55:03.775 --> 55:10.285 [SPEAKER_03]: But she told Bavino, she said, first of all, tear gas may not be deployed in any area where kids are. 55:11.007 --> 55:21.873 [SPEAKER_03]: She said officers the law is clear in Illinois officers must display their names somewhere visible in their forehead or on their chest and they are not allowed to wear masks. 55:21.973 --> 55:23.998 [SPEAKER_03]: You can wear sunglasses, but you can't wear masks. 55:24.218 --> 55:26.704 [SPEAKER_03]: You cannot cover your face to nobody can see who you are. 55:27.882 --> 55:30.184 [SPEAKER_03]: And then she said this and this is the thing that he had. 55:30.204 --> 55:32.327 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm sure he's absolutely pissed his hell about this. 55:32.807 --> 55:38.233 [SPEAKER_03]: So the judge said that Bavitama show up at court every business day. 55:38.373 --> 55:43.418 [SPEAKER_03]: Now through November 5th at 6 p.m. Every single business day. 55:43.819 --> 55:47.563 [SPEAKER_03]: Basically, so she can debrief him every freaking day. 55:47.623 --> 55:53.569 [SPEAKER_03]: On what did your officers do in Chicago and in Illinois today? 55:53.887 --> 56:03.713 [SPEAKER_03]: And basically, if any of the officers there did anything wrong, or probably anywhere else, but that's her purview of Chicago and going, basically, box them on the ears. 56:03.913 --> 56:06.380 [SPEAKER_03]: And in theory, she could hold them in contempt and put them in jail. 56:06.540 --> 56:09.448 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, no matter what Stephen Miller says. 56:09.580 --> 56:28.855 [SPEAKER_03]: right exactly so the idea that you know CBP is above the law yeah I'm sure some of them think that but this judge has said your ass will be there every day every business day at 6 p.m. and you will report to me and you will report on what happened for the day oh and she wants him to wear a camera too and you do not get to turn it off. 56:29.020 --> 56:35.553 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, I mean, that's, you know, police officers, law enforcement do get qualified immunity, but they don't get blanket immunity. 56:35.573 --> 56:36.154 [SPEAKER_03]: Exactly. 56:36.735 --> 56:38.799 [SPEAKER_03]: You get qualified immunity for doing your job. 56:38.839 --> 56:39.320 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes. 56:39.340 --> 56:41.083 [SPEAKER_03]: And we understand that and that makes sense. 56:41.324 --> 56:41.885 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm fine with that. 56:42.366 --> 56:44.210 [SPEAKER_03]: But you are not invincible. 56:44.250 --> 56:51.163 [SPEAKER_03]: You cannot do whatever the hell you want to do and do without any type of repercussions because folks, 56:51.143 --> 56:52.645 [SPEAKER_03]: That ain't how the law works. 56:53.326 --> 57:04.924 [SPEAKER_03]: And I was very nice to see this judge get out there and basically kick Greg Bavina's ass somewhere up between his shoulder blades and just be like, look Jackass, you may be the head of Board of Patrol, but the law is the head of you. 57:05.785 --> 57:09.030 [SPEAKER_03]: And you need to get in your proper place and do things the right way. 57:09.210 --> 57:12.215 [SPEAKER_03]: And if you can't, well, maybe you'll be replaced. 57:12.535 --> 57:13.557 [SPEAKER_03]: So, which, 57:13.672 --> 57:15.574 [SPEAKER_06]: or thrown your ass in an actual jail. 57:16.034 --> 57:16.815 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, exact. 57:16.835 --> 57:18.197 [SPEAKER_06]: That's a real hard one. 57:18.217 --> 57:19.758 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, no, I'm with you on that, Jody. 57:20.459 --> 57:21.981 [SPEAKER_03]: All right, look, we got more news of the day. 57:22.021 --> 57:23.823 [SPEAKER_03]: We got Ron Roberts of the Ron show. 57:24.443 --> 57:27.146

58:43.725 --> 58:45.668 [SPEAKER_02]: A little bit like that rose apothecary thing. 58:45.708 --> 58:48.732 [SPEAKER_02]: We're just waiting on a hot guy to strum a song and sing to me. 58:50.078 -->

59:54.964 [SPEAKER_03]: But we are glad that you guys are back of the new app. 59:55.004 --> 01:00:10.744 [SPEAKER_03]: You can download it from a for Apple and for Android and it looks at at least I know when when we are on it looks really nice I can look at it now and I like the blue background and our logo against it in the whole it's it's it's nice it's it's a nice way to listen to the show. 01:00:10.724 --> 01:00:20.277 [SPEAKER_02]: It's a cute little app and we're also on iHeart Radio if you just want to stay on iHeart Radio and not have to migrate from List of your other affiliates to listen to us there. 01:00:20.657 --> 01:00:39.162 [SPEAKER_03]: No, great nice yeah, we're glad for all of our affiliates It's just it's one of those things where you know we'll get some more of the people from WCPT We've had I'm sure you want to yes, well you and I listen to Richard you all the time We got any more of the people from there and from a of 9.50 D to work We have all our great affiliates, but we also happen to really be glad because I think 01:00:39.142 --> 01:00:41.489 [SPEAKER_03]: I think you're doing a little bit more of the ronsho than you used to be. 01:00:41.509 --> 01:00:43.514 [SPEAKER_03]: You've gone to what two hours now with the ronsho? 01:00:43.895 --> 01:00:52.138 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, they asked for two hours, then I said, I think you're like, 01:00:53.080 --> 01:00:55.143 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, we go down to 45 minutes. 01:00:56.705 --> 01:00:57.746 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, that means 10. 01:00:57.826 --> 01:00:58.607 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, exactly. 01:00:58.687 --> 01:01:00.990 [SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, that's what we're doing. 01:01:01.010 --> 01:01:02.012 [SPEAKER_02]: We're two hours now. 01:01:02.052 --> 01:01:03.854 [SPEAKER_02]: We've actually flipped the script a little bit. 01:01:03.874 --> 01:01:12.285 [SPEAKER_02]: The show airs first from 4 to 6 p.m. And then they do what they call the rerun, the following morning, 8 to 10 a.m. No, that's kind of nice. 01:01:12.305 --> 01:01:14.027 [SPEAKER_03]: That's a good thing for those people who missed it. 01:01:14.047 --> 01:01:17.552 [SPEAKER_03]: Of course, can I catch you on any of the podcasts and the platforms as well? 01:01:17.718 --> 01:01:30.002 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh yeah the runs are on all the major podcast platforms although I think you may have learned that while waiting for my most recent episode linked to come up but sometimes that might not be till the next day because I'm just exhausted by the day. 01:01:30.643 --> 01:01:38.899 [SPEAKER_03]: Look it's it's understandable especially if you were you know a baseball fan and we know you are we know your brains are not in the world series but it's my pretty free minute though. 01:01:38.879 --> 01:01:39.641 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah. 01:01:39.761 --> 01:01:40.262 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, God. 01:01:40.282 --> 01:01:40.383 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 01:01:40.463 --> 01:01:40.924 [SPEAKER_03]: Hell yeah. 01:01:41.004 --> 01:01:45.736 [SPEAKER_03]: The man who finally finished it off after 18 freaking innings last. 01:01:45.756 --> 01:01:46.137 [SPEAKER_02]: Who kids? 01:01:46.157 --> 01:01:46.718 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, to tuck in. 01:01:46.738 --> 01:01:47.761 [SPEAKER_02]: So you had to get that over with. 01:01:48.863 --> 01:01:52.011 [SPEAKER_06]: I know anybody on the East Coast was up until like 3 a.m. 01:01:52.143 --> 01:01:56.349 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't sleep watching it and I woke up in the 16th inning and then dosed off again. 01:01:56.389 --> 01:02:00.215 [SPEAKER_02]: And if I had just said to myself, two more innings, you got this. 01:02:00.235 --> 01:02:11.312 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry, I was, I tried really hard, I kind of dosed a little bit back and forth out of my office chair here from the 12th through the 14th, and then I said screw it. 01:02:11.352 --> 01:02:15.117 [SPEAKER_03]: When it going to the 15th, I'm like, um, if you, I'm done, I'm done with that. 01:02:15.278 --> 01:02:21.627 [SPEAKER_03]: So I was almost thinking that Jody by the time you woke up, you might be like, wake up, turn on the TV and be like, oh hey, world cheers, let's go going. 01:02:21.893 --> 01:02:28.721 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, you know, when I got to, I knew it was a long game, but I didn't realize it was two actual baseball games yesterday. 01:02:28.741 --> 01:02:36.850 [SPEAKER_02]: And actually a friend of mine, I saw in Facebook when I woke up this morning, my friend Anthony, he said, I got up to go to work and the game was still gone. 01:02:36.870 --> 01:02:38.652 [SPEAKER_02]: A lot of play by that. 01:02:38.712 --> 01:02:39.873 [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, yeah. 01:02:39.893 --> 01:02:41.535 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, absolutely insane. 01:02:41.555 --> 01:02:44.018 [SPEAKER_03]: I think it now holds the record as the longest. 01:02:44.378 --> 01:02:46.180 [SPEAKER_06]: I think it might have been the second. 01:02:46.160 --> 01:02:49.287 [SPEAKER_06]: Maybe the longest innings or the longest time. 01:02:49.388 --> 01:02:56.424 [SPEAKER_03]: It's one of the longest though, right, and of course, Shelyo Tony had two home runs for earns. 01:02:57.507 --> 01:02:59.472 [SPEAKER_03]: Wait, wait, he had all the damn records. 01:02:59.512 --> 01:03:03.220 [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, you know, he's amazing for a picture that can hit Freeman. 01:03:03.401 --> 01:03:03.882 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 01:03:04.132 --> 01:03:13.460 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm a little bit bitter about it all honestly, you know, I show my phone like that but like they're not paying and they deferred the payment so they can afford to load up on everybody else. 01:03:14.081 --> 01:03:18.024 [SPEAKER_02]: They got my guy Freddie and I mean that was that was on us too. 01:03:18.044 --> 01:03:19.966 [SPEAKER_02]: We found that up our GM. 01:03:20.446 --> 01:03:23.529 [SPEAKER_03]: Look, I am honestly Ron as a national fan. 01:03:23.649 --> 01:03:24.750 [SPEAKER_03]: I absolutely understand. 01:03:24.830 --> 01:03:27.432 [SPEAKER_03]: Basically, we've supplied all of Philadelphia fillets. 01:03:27.492 --> 01:03:28.213 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, price hyper. 01:03:28.393 --> 01:03:34.138 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, you're pretty much like half the damn fillets is the former members of the nationals. 01:03:34.118 --> 01:03:41.591 [SPEAKER_03]: We know that actually actually Jody, you are going to win either way because of the Dodgers win your Dodgers win. 01:03:41.611 --> 01:03:42.512 [SPEAKER_03]: That's fine. 01:03:42.753 --> 01:03:50.165 [SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, if Toronto wins, then Donald Trump will have an Applepleptic fit and, you know, take a poop on the ground and, you know, do the whole. 01:03:50.185 --> 01:03:51.267 [SPEAKER_06]: I can't check on the walls. 01:03:51.247 --> 01:04:09.593 [SPEAKER_03]: right exactly and and he will just go absolutely bad crap which of course will make all the rest of us pretty happy as well will be laughing about that so either way Will you win and then they start again and it's like less than in about three and a half hours right now They're on right now, but they have to play it five p.m. my time 01:04:10.450 --> 01:04:16.340 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, but what I'm saying is is as as people are listening this right now or the game lasted all night last night. 01:04:16.380 --> 01:04:20.206 [SPEAKER_03]: So as they're listening this right now, especially if they're listening to the podcast later, it could still be going. 01:04:20.527 --> 01:04:22.590 [SPEAKER_06]: I know, but I feel bad for these players. 01:04:22.650 --> 01:04:25.315 [SPEAKER_06]: I'm like, can't you give them both teams a day off? 01:04:25.355 --> 01:04:27.278 [SPEAKER_06]: That was a long one. 01:04:27.258 --> 01:04:28.200 [SPEAKER_02]: They make money. 01:04:28.600 --> 01:04:31.405 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel not one bit sad for anything. 01:04:31.425 --> 01:04:32.247 [SPEAKER_02]: They make money. 01:04:32.567 --> 01:04:38.558 [SPEAKER_03]: They are not going to be sitting in the food lines like unfortunately millions of Americans are thanks to the Republicans. 01:04:38.578 --> 01:04:39.399 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh my god. 01:04:39.460 --> 01:04:49.958 [SPEAKER_03]: We know obviously Ron on the Ron show you talk about all the politics especially Georgia politics and but this this national thing obviously is hitting you guys down there as well. 01:04:49.938 --> 01:04:54.026 [SPEAKER_03]: We we've been making fun of Tiny Johnson as you know for for a long time now. 01:04:54.667 --> 01:05:04.406 [SPEAKER_03]: We still I don't know if you heard this this little clip from a it's a small clip from a small man where Tiny Johnson is insisting that it's not his fault here. 01:05:04.426 --> 01:05:09.195 [SPEAKER_05]: Let me play this off the DVR the Democrats are required. 01:05:09.344 --> 01:05:10.446 [SPEAKER_05]: to open the government. 01:05:10.506 --> 01:05:12.850 [SPEAKER_05]: The Democrats keep saying Republicans are in charge of government. 01:05:13.211 --> 01:05:13.671 [SPEAKER_05]: We aren't. 01:05:15.334 --> 01:05:16.496 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, they aren't your title. 01:05:16.777 --> 01:05:18.119 [SPEAKER_03]: What is your title, tiny? 01:05:18.419 --> 01:05:20.543 [SPEAKER_02]: I think he could open a chamber by himself. 01:05:21.404 --> 01:05:21.825 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes. 01:05:22.286 --> 01:05:22.627 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes. 01:05:22.767 --> 01:05:24.670 [SPEAKER_03]: He could. 01:05:24.650 --> 01:05:26.592 [SPEAKER_03]: exactly what opened the chain by himself. 01:05:26.612 --> 01:05:32.478 [SPEAKER_03]: He could, he could swear in Adelaide, Grahalva, even if it wasn't a pro form of session, but yeah, we all know about that. 01:05:32.578 --> 01:05:37.743 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, the thing that thing that you don't have here is after he said that, we don't run the government. 01:05:38.023 --> 01:05:39.585 [SPEAKER_06]: He said the Senate needs 60 votes. 01:05:39.625 --> 01:05:40.906 [SPEAKER_06]: It's like, no, no, no, no. 01:05:40.926 --> 01:05:42.107 [SPEAKER_06]: They could stop that today. 01:05:42.547 --> 01:05:53.458 [SPEAKER_06]: They could vote to overcome it just for the one bill, pass the bill, put it on Donald's desk when he gets home, have him sign it. 01:05:53.438 --> 01:06:01.740 [SPEAKER_02]: It's going to wait for me because it seems like they are governing for the most part is if they know that we are going to be a uniparty country very soon. 01:06:02.000 --> 01:06:09.540 [SPEAKER_02]: They're setting up all the deckchairs to look like that, but in this one case they're afraid of getting rid of the filibuster in the Senate. 01:06:09.605 --> 01:06:16.417 [SPEAKER_06]: because they don't want, they don't want the public to know it's their fault when Medicare and Medicaid and the ACA go away. 01:06:16.477 --> 01:06:23.249 [SPEAKER_06]: They are relishing the fact that there's a filibuster and Democrats do the same on occasion, too. 01:06:23.349 --> 01:06:24.732 [SPEAKER_06]: They're like, right. 01:06:24.752 --> 01:06:27.276 [SPEAKER_06]: But I think the Democrats have better ideas. 01:06:27.526 --> 01:06:30.449 [SPEAKER_06]: then the Republicans when it comes to most things. 01:06:30.469 --> 01:06:36.054 [SPEAKER_03]: And about the SNF funding, the whole thing with the SNF funding is the fact that Johnson keeps pushing this lie. 01:06:36.294 --> 01:06:39.037 [SPEAKER_03]: We've got the stories in the news on tab today. 01:06:39.357 --> 01:06:44.642 [SPEAKER_03]: The Johnson keeps pushing the lie that honor and all that the SNF contingency funds are not legally available. 01:06:44.822 --> 01:06:56.993 [SPEAKER_03]: And we all know they are legally available in and we've been saying this last couple of days, Ron, in normal shutdowns, which is stupid to say, 01:06:56.973 --> 01:07:07.125 [SPEAKER_03]: the government leaves the snap, but by it running and if a state can put money into it, then people who need to know who you snap, they can be taken care of. 01:07:07.746 --> 01:07:21.462 [SPEAKER_03]: And you were saying here, you were coming in the door here at the bar that you've literally got, is it just Democrats or there's some Republicans too down there, Georgia, who are actually saying, I don't know, we want to be able to help and we want to be able to get the people this nap benefits they need. 01:07:21.661 --> 01:07:29.668 [SPEAKER_02]: Now the Georgia Legislative Black Caucus held a press conference yesterday and I had State Senator Nicky Merid on my show. 01:07:29.708 --> 01:07:31.950 [SPEAKER_02]: We talked a bit about what they would like to do. 01:07:31.970 --> 01:07:37.335 [SPEAKER_02]: They would like to tap into the state's $14.6 billion rainy day reserve fund. 01:07:37.715 --> 01:07:38.576 [SPEAKER_09]: Billion. 01:07:38.796 --> 01:07:44.722 [SPEAKER_02]: Billion with a B and it's a fund snap for the one and eight Georgia residents. 01:07:44.982 --> 01:07:51.668 [SPEAKER_02]: I think it's like 1.3 million residents who rely on SNAP for, you know, put a good 01:07:51.648 --> 01:07:56.739 [SPEAKER_02]: Now, what they want to do is they want to see that the governor would open a special session to do that. 01:07:56.839 --> 01:08:02.051 [SPEAKER_02]: Now, I asked her, I said, what if the governor comes back to you and says, sure, we'll do that. 01:08:02.071 --> 01:08:05.438 [SPEAKER_02]: But in that same special session, we might need to look at some line drawing. 01:08:05.959 --> 01:08:06.400 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah. 01:08:06.734 --> 01:08:10.841 [SPEAKER_02]: So I felt bad about even putting that out there, but that that question. 01:08:11.142 --> 01:08:11.743 [SPEAKER_03]: What does she say? 01:08:12.123 --> 01:08:24.465 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, she, I don't think it's a serious situation because I don't think that the governor is serious about, you know, having a special session for anything other than his own list of wants and needs. 01:08:25.186 --> 01:08:27.751 [SPEAKER_03]: But at least in the, at least your legislature, pushing, that's the thing. 01:08:27.771 --> 01:08:30.936 [SPEAKER_03]: If we don't, if we don't do it, if we don't try, we don't know. 01:08:30.916 --> 01:08:31.177 [SPEAKER_02]: Right. 01:08:31.197 --> 01:08:38.653 [SPEAKER_02]: An example of Democrats trying to govern for the people, whereas Republicans are just looking to obstruct for the people. 01:08:38.673 --> 01:08:38.813 [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm. 01:08:38.833 --> 01:08:38.973 [SPEAKER_03]: Mm-hmm. 01:08:38.993 --> 01:08:39.394 [SPEAKER_03]: Exactly. 01:08:39.595 --> 01:08:40.396 [SPEAKER_03]: Kind of a double thing there. 01:08:40.416 --> 01:08:40.917 [SPEAKER_03]: Because it's right. 01:08:40.977 --> 01:08:43.002 [SPEAKER_03]: You, I mean, 100% wrong. 01:08:43.463 --> 01:08:44.966 [SPEAKER_03]: Democrats are actually trying to do this. 01:08:45.467 --> 01:08:51.540 [SPEAKER_03]: If Democrats were playing political games, actually playing political games with this shutdown. 01:08:51.520 --> 01:09:13.596 [SPEAKER_03]: Democrats actually wouldn't have done it they would have said you know what not only will we allow we will sign any deal knowing that the Republicans are going to go back on it and screw everybody but we will say you know what screw it you guys voted to make sure that the ACA subsidies went away because you voted for Republicans fine we'll do that and we won't even bring up Medicare and Medicaid that we're in a big ugly bill. 01:09:13.576 --> 01:09:43.347 [SPEAKER_02]: And how are we supposed to be Charlie Brown constantly kicking at the full board at Lucy pulls away like I mean you know the my Johnson you called small Johnson little Johnson tiny Johnson he keeps he keeps telling like I saw with Katelyn Collins the other night we keep saying well you know it was always the plan to talk about the ACA subsidies in October and I'm like well for those who's plan was that where's that in writing it's open enrollment starts November 1st and that's kind of last ask minutes sorry right you know wait to do something like that yeah 01:09:43.327 --> 01:09:47.311 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know, look, the reason we call him tiny Johnson is because Republicans are all in that thing. 01:09:47.391 --> 01:09:48.632 [SPEAKER_03]: We have a big powerful speakle. 01:09:48.672 --> 01:09:50.313 [SPEAKER_03]: First of all, their speaker's impotent. 01:09:50.333 --> 01:09:51.414 [SPEAKER_03]: He's tiny and he's impotent. 01:09:51.434 --> 01:09:54.938 [SPEAKER_03]: He's literally a short person, but it's not his height that we call him them. 01:09:54.958 --> 01:09:55.758 [SPEAKER_03]: Sure, people are fine. 01:09:56.079 --> 01:10:00.122 [SPEAKER_03]: It's that he's a small man because he doesn't consider the people that he should be considering. 01:10:00.362 --> 01:10:06.828 [SPEAKER_03]: So Republicans stand there, waving their tiny Johnson to us, and they get mad when we point in laugh because they're standing there waving their tiny Johnson. 01:10:06.848 --> 01:10:13.114 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, how big is his grinder account, though? 01:10:14.697 --> 01:10:20.404 [SPEAKER_02]: I had him blocked on my account, so... 01:10:22.392 --> 01:10:28.500 [SPEAKER_02]: When you think about it, that man never ran in an election where it was like, you know, hotly contested. 01:10:28.880 --> 01:10:29.060 [SPEAKER_02]: Right. 01:10:29.160 --> 01:10:30.082 [SPEAKER_02]: Very manned and district. 01:10:30.102 --> 01:10:32.004 [SPEAKER_02]: He's never, you know, he's speaker of the house. 01:10:32.024 --> 01:10:34.948 [SPEAKER_02]: He's like, arguably the third most powerful person in Washington, right? 01:10:35.068 --> 01:10:41.956 [SPEAKER_02]: And yet, he's never been selected in an election where he had to fight for something contentious. 01:10:42.317 --> 01:10:42.537 [SPEAKER_03]: Right. 01:10:42.617 --> 01:10:48.805 [SPEAKER_03]: And he says, well, you know, Democrats are in control, dude, you control the house, the Senate, everything. 01:10:48.825 --> 01:10:48.965 [SPEAKER_03]: Right. 01:10:48.985 --> 01:10:50.507 [SPEAKER_03]: House and the Supreme Court. 01:10:50.627 --> 01:10:51.268 [SPEAKER_03]: Right. 01:10:51.839 --> 01:11:08.616 [SPEAKER_03]: Republicans for somewhere he's in mega Republicans your average Republican voter I think, especially your anti-Trump Republican voter is smart enough to know the difference, but even magas are kind of like wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, Republicans are control of all of these and yet you're telling me you ain't got the power to do that. 01:11:09.220 --> 01:11:26.503 [SPEAKER_02]: They know they do they know they do right that that is we need something that is absolutely so basic as well that But I mean how many times have we watched a TV show or movie right where the bad guy has the gun on and he grabs an innocent bystander and puts the gun to their temple 01:11:26.720 --> 01:11:53.217 [SPEAKER_02]: yeah put put your put your guns down or she gets it or he gets it right right it's literally what they're doing right now with federal workers with snap benefit uh... you know recipients with air traffic controllers everything but like they're trying to float this bill through uh... to make sure the military keeps getting paid but the everybody else they're they're in the right they're in the headlock with the gun to their temple and all the cons are willing to pull the trigger in different times have to make this decision of 01:11:53.382 --> 01:12:00.477 [SPEAKER_02]: do we potentially let them do that because we've got to stand our ground so that that person doesn't get a hospital in a for the hospital bill. 01:12:00.617 --> 01:12:02.221 [SPEAKER_06]: It's like a speech. 01:12:02.421 --> 01:12:06.109 [SPEAKER_06]: The Democrats are going to have to shoot the hostage at this point. 01:12:06.865 --> 01:12:20.045 [SPEAKER_03]: So that the Democrats have actually we we've been really pleased with the response from our listeners the folks here in the bar because they they have understood it and they've helped us synthesize down to three things. 01:12:20.726 --> 01:12:30.621 [SPEAKER_03]: Basically the three demands of the Democrats and we've been saying these for a while that we got to we'll go over those in a minute here because we got to pay the bills long and short is these these three things are so simple. 01:12:31.082 --> 01:12:34.527 [SPEAKER_03]: I know some of you here in the bar like wait wait wait let me say it let me say it in a way. 01:12:34.507 --> 01:12:36.149 [SPEAKER_03]: what will let you say it when we come back. 01:12:36.189 --> 01:12:38.431 [SPEAKER_03]: We have to do a couple things clean up and that kind of thing. 01:12:38.451 --> 01:12:41.154 [SPEAKER_03]: But the fact of the matter is, it's only three simple things. 01:12:41.354 --> 01:12:51.825 [SPEAKER_03]: Anybody who is in the media, national media, local media, statewide media like in Georgia, if they don't say that these are the three simple demands of what Democrats are asking and demanding. 01:12:51.865 --> 01:12:57.732 [SPEAKER_03]: And they don't include that in their coverage, then they're just, they're doing the work or the Republicans at that. 01:12:58.052 --> 01:13:00.835 [SPEAKER_03]: Because these three, these three demands are not 01:13:00.815 --> 01:13:20.629 [SPEAKER_03]: that complicated now uh and and look like I said well we'll go over those here in just a minute but uh we're definitely we want to talk to you a little bit more about obviously what's going on in uh in Georgia I know that uh there have been some companies that announced layoffs that are in Georgia got uh I believe UPS and Amazon have some stuff down there. 01:13:20.609 --> 01:13:22.051 [SPEAKER_03]: We got to talk about all of that. 01:13:22.112 --> 01:13:23.193 [SPEAKER_03]: Look, it is Tuesday night. 01:13:23.233 --> 01:13:24.976 [SPEAKER_03]: We got Ron Roberts of the Ron show. 01:13:25.517 --> 01:13:29.584 [SPEAKER_03]: And of course, of Georgia now radio he is here with Jody and me and you. 01:13:29.664 --> 01:13:31.667 [SPEAKER_03]: So look, we got last call coming up. 01:13:31.687 --> 01:13:32.489 [SPEAKER_03]: Here's what you want to do. 01:13:32.849 --> 01:13:33.551 [SPEAKER_03]: Refresh your drink. 01:13:33.651 --> 01:13:36.095 [SPEAKER_03]: You can check out the store at the politicsbar.com. 01:13:36.576 --> 01:13:38.238 [SPEAKER_03]: And then when we come back, we'll talk to Ron. 01:13:38.278 --> 01:13:42.085 [SPEAKER_03]: We'll talk about those three things that Democrats are demanding in this shutdown. 01:13:42.566 --> 01:13:42.906 [SPEAKER_03]: Hang on. 01:13:42.966 --> 01:13:45.250 [SPEAKER_03]: Refresh your drink and come on back to the 01:13:52.925 --> 01:13:56.877 [SPEAKER_09]: We'll be right back after we pay some bills at the politics bar. 01:14:02.678 --> 01:14:03.539 [SPEAKER_03]: Let's go! 01:14:03.639 --> 01:14:05.421 [SPEAKER_03]: One, two, one, two, one, Day Nights. 01:14:05.922 --> 01:14:07.163 [SPEAKER_03]: You got to Jody Hamilton. 01:14:07.183 --> 01:14:08.925 [SPEAKER_03]: You got your Meshons with Pierce. 01:14:08.945 --> 01:14:26.205 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, we are very glad to have Ron Roberts of the Ron show, which you can hear in your favorite podcast platform, or you can hear it on George and now, radio, which, oh, please, we're here listening, or if you're listening elsewhere, we're glad you're listening, wherever you happen to be, although, you know, George and I was pretty cool, because Ron, he happens to lead into us. 01:14:26.185 --> 01:14:29.331 [SPEAKER_03]: every week night, which, you know, that's a look. 01:14:30.092 --> 01:14:33.940 [SPEAKER_03]: Jody, from entertainment side, you have to have a great lead in. 01:14:34.100 --> 01:14:34.982 [SPEAKER_03]: Absolutely. 01:14:35.262 --> 01:14:35.783 [SPEAKER_03]: On George now. 01:14:35.823 --> 01:14:36.444 [SPEAKER_06]: We have a great one. 01:14:36.965 --> 01:14:39.089 [SPEAKER_03]: So, well, I'm thank you for being our lead in. 01:14:39.109 --> 01:14:39.610 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm pleasure. 01:14:39.851 --> 01:14:40.532 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm pleasure. 01:14:40.833 --> 01:14:44.457 [SPEAKER_03]: All righty, so we were talking about the the shutdown and the economy. 01:14:44.537 --> 01:14:50.204 [SPEAKER_03]: We were saying that the folks here at the bar have bullied out of three things that that Democrats want. 01:14:50.404 --> 01:14:56.612 [SPEAKER_03]: Anybody in media who tells you, oh, I don't know what Democrats want, or especially if they avoid the first one, they're full of crap. 01:14:57.032 --> 01:15:03.820 [SPEAKER_03]: The three things, the way that the folks around here have nailed it down is first of all, demand number one for Democrats is no baxies. 01:15:03.800 --> 01:15:05.385 [SPEAKER_03]: If you're going to make a deal, stick to the deal. 01:15:05.425 --> 01:15:07.009 [SPEAKER_03]: No backseason, no resisions, no whatever. 01:15:07.290 --> 01:15:09.196 [SPEAKER_03]: If you make a deal, you must stick with it. 01:15:09.216 --> 01:15:10.480 [SPEAKER_03]: Because otherwise, what the hell? 01:15:10.821 --> 01:15:14.512 [SPEAKER_03]: And even Magofox, we've talked to, we're like, yeah, dude, that makes sense. 01:15:14.572 --> 01:15:18.383 [SPEAKER_06]: I, you know, I don't want to be a, it's signing a contract. 01:15:18.599 --> 01:15:21.986 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, I mean, you've got to understand this is the Trump party that they're dealing with. 01:15:22.026 --> 01:15:27.015 [SPEAKER_02]: And that man, you know, should many hands over the years with folks who did business for him. 01:15:27.055 --> 01:15:28.598 [SPEAKER_02]: And then they never got paid. 01:15:28.658 --> 01:15:30.522 [SPEAKER_02]: So they don't need to be like right now. 01:15:30.542 --> 01:15:33.748 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, I remember Mexico was supposed to pay for the wall. 01:15:34.109 --> 01:15:36.253 [UNKNOWN]: Yeah. 01:15:36.942 --> 01:16:02.123 [SPEAKER_03]: they don't call that guy taco for nothing and he said he wasn't going to touch the east wing so yeah exactly exactly exactly well he didn't the back hose did oh out which hose played well so okay so don't know thing number one no backsies thing number two ACA subsidies thing number three give back the money for Medicare and Medicaid 01:16:02.373 --> 01:16:12.669 [SPEAKER_03]: literally it takes me less than three full seconds to say those three things and yet so many of our colleagues who are in the national media and even a lot of folks who are in local and statewide media. 01:16:12.789 --> 01:16:14.392 [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what Democrats want. 01:16:15.674 --> 01:16:17.036 [SPEAKER_03]: This is not that complicated. 01:16:17.516 --> 01:16:19.059 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you can't count on media anymore. 01:16:19.419 --> 01:16:20.121 [SPEAKER_02]: It just can't. 01:16:20.281 --> 01:16:23.225 [SPEAKER_02]: It's it's sad to see the state of American media right now. 01:16:23.325 --> 01:16:24.748 [SPEAKER_02]: We're not even seeing it. 01:16:24.828 --> 01:16:25.048 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 01:16:25.068 --> 01:16:25.248 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 01:16:25.289 --> 01:16:25.569 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 01:16:25.589 --> 01:16:30.777 [SPEAKER_02]: CNN's headhunk though is telling, you know, it's folks 01:16:30.757 --> 01:16:35.804 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, Mark Thompson went to, well, that was the story we didn't even get in from last week in the news on tap. 01:16:36.545 --> 01:16:53.309 [SPEAKER_03]: Mark Thompson, who's the headhunter at CNN basically trumped down to the White House and did his best Lindsey Graham impersonation and just basically gave them all kinds of kisses and then he comes back and he tells his people the next day, you know, lay off the East Wing stuff. 01:16:53.349 --> 01:16:55.713 [SPEAKER_03]: Don't, you know, nobody cares about that. 01:16:56.494 --> 01:16:57.355 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, we do. 01:16:57.537 --> 01:17:02.525 [SPEAKER_03]: In fact, I have seen more people than I would have thought on the right. 01:17:02.926 --> 01:17:04.188 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, thank you. 01:17:04.809 --> 01:17:06.371 [SPEAKER_03]: You're seeing the same thing in Georgia. 01:17:06.392 --> 01:17:14.905 [SPEAKER_02]: Literally, it's literally, you're seeing the literal physical embodiment of what Trump has done to this country happening to one of our sacred buildings. 01:17:15.106 --> 01:17:15.867 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes. 01:17:15.847 --> 01:17:19.072 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, the next thing he's going to do is gild the Washington Monument, maybe. 01:17:19.092 --> 01:17:21.054 [SPEAKER_06]: And I mean, that's what people are concerned about. 01:17:21.094 --> 01:17:21.996 [SPEAKER_06]: You're not right. 01:17:22.136 --> 01:17:27.163 [SPEAKER_02]: He's doing physically, literally doing physical damage to one of our physical institutions. 01:17:27.203 --> 01:17:28.986 [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I think it's hard to feel as far as well. 01:17:29.046 --> 01:17:30.908 [SPEAKER_06]: Did you see those stupid arch? 01:17:31.589 --> 01:17:32.751 [SPEAKER_06]: I like it because it was small. 01:17:32.771 --> 01:17:34.714 [SPEAKER_06]: You could, you know, like spinal tap. 01:17:34.994 --> 01:17:40.622 [SPEAKER_02]: You know, you know, he's got to be looking at the Mount Rushmore, figuring where he can put his head. 01:17:40.602 --> 01:17:55.945 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, he's been, he's actually, um, they have, they have discussed that and, uh, at least I, oh, well, the, among other reasons, um, the geologists and everything have said that look, we're concerned about keeping the faces that are there on the mountain now. 01:17:56.093 --> 01:17:57.195 [SPEAKER_02]: But that doesn't stop him. 01:17:57.295 --> 01:17:59.479 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, you know, he wasn't going to touch the East Wing either. 01:17:59.539 --> 01:18:01.021 [SPEAKER_02]: And so he's all just to a little head. 01:18:01.041 --> 01:18:04.627 [SPEAKER_02]: And then watch the whole thing will come crumbling because they tried to put his little head on there. 01:18:04.687 --> 01:18:19.472 [SPEAKER_06]: Well, and with with the East Wing, when they were demolishing it, it wasn't demolished in a way that's environmentally safe for the people that live in the building, work at the building, live near the building, because he has passed us that is in the walls and in the ceilings. 01:18:19.952 --> 01:18:21.595 [SPEAKER_06]: And do we know if he's 01:18:22.115 --> 01:18:23.437 [SPEAKER_06]: saved any of the artwork. 01:18:24.198 --> 01:18:24.619 [SPEAKER_06]: Anything? 01:18:24.779 --> 01:18:25.340 [SPEAKER_06]: Do we know? 01:18:25.360 --> 01:18:27.463 [SPEAKER_03]: No, we don't know for certain about that. 01:18:27.904 --> 01:18:33.733 [SPEAKER_03]: We do know one of the people that we have that, you know, makes comments around here in the bar. 01:18:34.053 --> 01:18:37.398 [SPEAKER_03]: Angie, she said on threads here was a yesterday day before. 01:18:37.518 --> 01:18:40.643 [SPEAKER_03]: She said that Silverstone Maryland Company demolished the East Wing of the White House. 01:18:41.044 --> 01:18:49.877 [SPEAKER_03]: Has had to take their White House or they've had to take their website and social media presence completely offline. 01:18:49.857 --> 01:19:00.040 [SPEAKER_06]: Well and Stephanie said Stephanie read a story today that part of the East Wing now that's destroyed is going into one of Donald's golf courses as like a landfill. 01:19:00.060 --> 01:19:05.773 [SPEAKER_03]: Not that I haven't seen I haven't seen for certain confirmation that the rubble was going there but I 01:19:06.209 --> 01:19:35.271 [SPEAKER_03]: The long and short of it is that a lot of the national news media, the mainstream media, I should say, is failing, but we've been talking about this a lot, Ron, and I know with Georgia now and with the Ron show that you are finding ways to get people the information that they need, get people the information needed for Georgia, get people the information they need for national stuff, and, you know, that's kind of what we do here at the politics bar, too. 01:19:35.251 --> 01:19:39.681 [SPEAKER_03]: for certain types of media, the mainstream media was the best single source. 01:19:40.262 --> 01:19:48.501 [SPEAKER_03]: And there are still certain good people who work at some of these outlets, even if they're outlet itself as a whole as crap, there are some decent people sprinkled in among them. 01:19:49.325 --> 01:20:03.382 [SPEAKER_03]: But really, the alternative media, the independent media, which we all here in the bar, all of us here are three of us at the mics, all three of us at the mics, it's a lot more powerful than it used to be. 01:20:03.783 --> 01:20:08.569 [SPEAKER_03]: And I think some of the mainstream media is a lot more concerned because they used to be the only game in the house. 01:20:09.370 --> 01:20:09.510 [UNKNOWN]: Mm-hmm. 01:20:09.490 --> 01:20:12.073 [SPEAKER_02]: You're kind of, you're kind of singing our tune here at Georgia now. 01:20:12.093 --> 01:20:18.061 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, the idea that we're coming through here with is that we don't need an AMRFM transmitterside anymore. 01:20:18.101 --> 01:20:22.426 [SPEAKER_02]: Thousands of dollars a month, you know, to maintain a site and studio space, etc. 01:20:22.447 --> 01:20:24.229 [SPEAKER_02]: and so on, to do what we do. 01:20:24.349 --> 01:20:26.912 [SPEAKER_02]: We have built a station that is essentially in the cloud. 01:20:26.952 --> 01:20:28.374 [SPEAKER_02]: And it's a streaming audio station. 01:20:28.514 --> 01:20:39.328 [SPEAKER_02]: And people under the age of 60, more often than not, listen to podcasts or other informative sources or just music on their mobile device 01:20:39.308 --> 01:20:58.774 [SPEAKER_02]: other streaming means, and we can sort of deliver for them what talk radio is supposed to have been delivering all this time, which is, you know, fact-based journalism and conversation are, you know, our slogan at Georgia now is that, you know, we're opinions and headlines and conversations, and that's what we're here to do. 01:20:58.974 --> 01:21:04.962 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, obviously I come in with a bent, but I like to think that because liberals fact, you know, because facts and 01:21:04.942 --> 01:21:21.330 [SPEAKER_02]: and math and data and science all have liberal biases that i'm pretty much steeped in fact and i i'm just listening i was at j school dropout i was i was the high school editor at the paperback when i was a kid like i'm not going to come on the air with something that is rubbish or just have truth that's just not how i'm wired and right 01:21:21.310 --> 01:21:34.030 [SPEAKER_02]: I'd like to think that like our entire line-ups that way, we just hired a news director and we've got, you know, a new reporter as well and we're going to have, you know, strong journalistic presence here for the entire state and then we're going to drive the conversation and it's not just going to be at Lanna Base. 01:21:34.070 --> 01:21:48.313 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I'm from Augusta and I live in Athens for five years, so I'm pretty familiar with those like my, my ex-husbands' families from Northwest Georgia, Marjorie Taylor Green Country, so I'm tapped into that too and, and even, even Marjorie Taylor Green, one of the things here, uh, I see. 01:21:48.293 --> 01:21:54.921 [SPEAKER_02]: It's weird, I need to belly up to the politics bar if I agree with her any more than I are. 01:21:54.961 --> 01:21:55.581 [SPEAKER_02]: I know. 01:21:56.843 --> 01:22:12.040 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, look though, the whole thing about it is she campaigned and you can confirm with, as I understand it from a national perspective, she campaigned and one of the two big things she campaigned on is she campaigned on getting the Epstein files released and making sure that people's health care stayed affordable. 01:22:12.560 --> 01:22:23.939 [SPEAKER_03]: She's living up to that right now exactly for all the things we do for that at least her ass has been mostly here in D.C. willing to talk She's gone into the Democrats offices. 01:22:24.019 --> 01:22:26.183 [SPEAKER_03]: She's talked with them and been like, how can we do this? 01:22:26.363 --> 01:22:27.084 [SPEAKER_03]: What can we do? 01:22:27.445 --> 01:22:32.273 [SPEAKER_03]: She is at least interested in getting that and I and it got to give it to her sometimes, but yeah 01:22:32.253 --> 01:22:35.476 [SPEAKER_02]: And by the way, she's not just talking through the mailhold doors like she used to do. 01:22:35.536 --> 01:22:35.817 [SPEAKER_02]: Right. 01:22:36.457 --> 01:22:37.018 [SPEAKER_02]: It's been a long way. 01:22:37.098 --> 01:22:39.360 [SPEAKER_02]: She's opening the door now and having your conversation. 01:22:39.380 --> 01:22:41.122 [SPEAKER_03]: So could Democrats Democrats want that? 01:22:41.142 --> 01:22:44.025 [SPEAKER_03]: Democrats are like, you're willing to do something for your constituents? 01:22:44.185 --> 01:22:44.645 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm listening. 01:22:44.685 --> 01:22:57.938 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, she and her caucus talk a lot about America first, but this presidency has been anything but it's been Argentina first or Qatar first or any other country first that's gotten, you know, needs or, you know, we're probably going to continue in economy while ours is crumbling. 01:22:58.039 --> 01:22:59.560 [SPEAKER_02]: It makes no sense. 01:22:59.675 --> 01:23:00.441 [SPEAKER_03]: No, you're right. 01:23:00.642 --> 01:23:00.944 [SPEAKER_03]: You're right. 01:23:00.965 --> 01:23:03.745 [SPEAKER_03]: 100% right and it drives me nuts that 01:23:04.518 --> 01:23:22.734 [SPEAKER_03]: it's one of those things you know we we should give credit where do and it's just nice to see and it's it's great to have an outlet like Georgia now where you guys are actually going to be focusing you are already focusing on the things there that people need to know and you're actually giving more of a balanced opinion then folks probably are going to be getting through some of the mainstream sources. 01:23:23.295 --> 01:23:34.525 [SPEAKER_03]: I do have to mention a J.c. we were shocked the J.c. is ending its print money or they already have a camera which that's yeah I think 01:23:34.505 --> 01:23:36.869 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, they think that they want online, too, like you. 01:23:37.270 --> 01:23:46.888 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I talked a little bit about their polling today, which showed that Trump is under water with Georgia voters and Brian Camp, the governor, is not. 01:23:47.510 --> 01:23:48.752 [SPEAKER_02]: So he wields some authority. 01:23:48.792 --> 01:23:53.020 [SPEAKER_02]: He could be a member if he wanted to be just chooses not to be unfortunately in at the 01:23:53.270 --> 01:24:20.762 [SPEAKER_03]: at the detriment of Georgian so so he could step out and help he could go ahead and follow this black caucus and say hey let's let's get a special session going let's move the extra bonus money that we have here in Georgia over to the place where the snap it can be used to fulfill this snap thing he could he could even do the whole thing if I have confidence in in speaker Johnson that the Republicans will get it done I mean he can earn himself some points across the board politically by doing this 01:24:21.333 --> 01:24:36.206 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if he's just so beholden to his partisanship or not, but I mean, I talked about this earlier today as well, like he could literally, you know, blaze a trail as something of a maverick and do well for the majority of Georgia's voters with that or with Medicaid expense. 01:24:36.226 --> 01:24:39.493 [SPEAKER_02]: And on the last day on the day out the door all by the way, I'm going to expand Medicaid by y'all. 01:24:39.592 --> 01:24:54.732 [SPEAKER_02]: And cement is legacy as something of a of a of a great in Georgia governance, whether you disagree or agree with him on his gun stance or his reproductive priorities, you know, he's brought a lot of green energy attention to this state. 01:24:54.712 --> 01:25:02.863 [SPEAKER_02]: In, you know, with the headwinds of Trump's, you know, Magga fossil fuel and clean coal, they still bring in the jobs and the green energy there. 01:25:02.983 --> 01:25:03.844 [SPEAKER_02]: Right, exactly. 01:25:03.944 --> 01:25:13.717 [SPEAKER_02]: So I mean, he's already got a little bit of a bona fide with those who are independently minded or left leaning in some respects, you know, sometimes you tip your cap when the broke clock is right twice a day. 01:25:13.798 --> 01:25:14.138 [SPEAKER_02]: Right. 01:25:14.118 --> 01:25:29.680 [SPEAKER_02]: but you know again that that's the frustrating part like he's he's had opportunities to show that he's a little bit more independent minded but and that he's he's he's he's Teflon coded like Trump can't touch him and yet in moments like these he's just fall short unfortunately 01:25:29.710 --> 01:25:32.895 [SPEAKER_06]: Because California, Minnesota, are definitely doing what you've suggested. 01:25:33.676 --> 01:25:38.024 [SPEAKER_06]: Because we're our food banks are open and ready with money we have and same with Minnesota. 01:25:38.244 --> 01:25:43.873 [SPEAKER_06]: And it's just insane that more red states that need it more than the blue states in general. 01:25:43.893 --> 01:25:46.157 [SPEAKER_03]: I think Illinois is doing some things like that. 01:25:46.177 --> 01:25:53.589 [SPEAKER_03]: I think there are a lot of there are a lot of local and state leaders who are at least trying or at least willing to try. 01:25:53.609 --> 01:25:54.891 [SPEAKER_03]: That's all. 01:25:54.871 --> 01:25:58.935 [SPEAKER_02]: No, by the way, this is the 30th anniversary of the Braves winning the World Series in 1995, right? 01:25:59.255 --> 01:26:07.483 [SPEAKER_02]: And the reason that I was blind was because I remember back then, Jane found a caught a lot of flack in Georgia because she said parts of Georgia were like a third-world country. 01:26:08.123 --> 01:26:10.005 [SPEAKER_02]: And I'm sorry, she's not wrong. 01:26:10.145 --> 01:26:11.046 [SPEAKER_02]: She wasn't wrong then. 01:26:11.066 --> 01:26:11.706 [SPEAKER_02]: She's not wrong. 01:26:11.747 --> 01:26:13.828 [SPEAKER_02]: Not only have traveled this state, I've lived in this state. 01:26:13.868 --> 01:26:23.157 [SPEAKER_02]: I know that there are pockets that were, you know, it's very, you know, backwards and backwards and not up to first-world standards. 01:26:23.137 --> 01:26:31.982 [SPEAKER_02]: you know a lot of these a lot of these folks that are living in these parts of the state that maybe ruby red mag of voters or ruby red mag of counties are going to be affected by these cuts. 01:26:32.114 --> 01:27:02.121 [SPEAKER_03]: And that's just it is that you've got to try one of our one of folks here in the bar Tom No, no, that Tom the other Tom said via Facebook he said look why don't more of the media and podcasters and Criticize the the public who voted for this stuff and criticize the folks in politics who aren't doing it That the key quote from him as he said we all fail if we stop trying and I think that's that's the key is You know you got people to need your help that if you're especially if you're an elected office you got to try 01:27:02.101 --> 01:27:03.583 [SPEAKER_03]: And that's what you're there for, right? 01:27:03.923 --> 01:27:05.765 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, could I show you for the Democrats at least trying? 01:27:05.785 --> 01:27:09.549 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, they're showing some spine now, you know, that's refreshing. 01:27:09.849 --> 01:27:10.430 [SPEAKER_03]: It is. 01:27:10.750 --> 01:27:11.491 [SPEAKER_03]: Clear refreshing. 01:27:11.511 --> 01:27:23.563 [SPEAKER_03]: And totally wonderful two things which actually you guys can experience more of if you listen to the Ron show weeknights and of course you can get it in a podcast or you can get it in a wonderful Georgia now, radio, Ron Roberts. 01:27:23.743 --> 01:27:26.286 [SPEAKER_03]: We're always glad when you hang out with us at the bar, man. 01:27:26.266 --> 01:27:26.907 [SPEAKER_02]: Good time. 01:27:27.227 --> 01:27:27.728 [SPEAKER_03]: Thank you. 01:27:27.768 --> 01:27:28.769 [SPEAKER_03]: Come back another day. 01:27:28.829 --> 01:27:31.352 [SPEAKER_03]: Hopefully we got Bob Cesca. 01:27:31.392 --> 01:27:32.213 [SPEAKER_03]: I believe we do. 01:27:32.273 --> 01:27:33.495 [SPEAKER_03]: He can come with me today. 01:27:33.555 --> 01:27:35.137 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, excellent. 01:27:35.157 --> 01:27:35.557 [SPEAKER_03]: We have it. 01:27:35.978 --> 01:27:37.560 [SPEAKER_03]: We have more guests coming up later in the week. 01:27:37.940 --> 01:27:40.223 [SPEAKER_03]: Look, dude, you got to do, you know, it's a Tuesday night. 01:27:40.263 --> 01:27:40.964 [SPEAKER_03]: Get yourself home. 01:27:41.284 --> 01:27:42.225 [SPEAKER_03]: Get yourself some sleep. 01:27:43.167 --> 01:27:49.354 [SPEAKER_03]: Unless the game goes another 18 innings and then whatever, you know, and we'll see here tomorrow night at the politics bar.
