MANDY i can't see the blog for some, reason even
if it's. There, uh just refresh your browser over and
over again and it should pop, up BECAUSE i promise
you it's. There we are going to talk today at
one o'clock To Joshua. Griffin he is one of Several
republicans that have announced their running for, governor and on
The democratic side we have And westward just did a

(06:55):
story about. This two dozen people are running to be
governor Of. Colorado so who are? They some of them
are people that probably we've never heard of it never.
Will two dozen people filed paperwork to run for governor
as Of april twenty, first that according to records from
The secretary Of state's, office not including six other candidates

(07:18):
who filed but have since dropped.

Speaker 4 (07:20):
Out and you, KNOW i think that it would take.
IT i believe. THIS i think it would take a
miracle and.

Speaker 5 (07:28):
A candidate so perfect as to be unrevealed to us
at this point to win a governor's race In colorado
in this next election. CYCLE i don't see it. Happening
something so dramatic would have to. Occur and AS i,
said it would have to be the absolute perfect, candidate
someone who's not trumpy but trumpy, enough someone who can

(07:52):
talk about conservative, policies while making them seem not. Conservative
someone who can talk about problems and not get bogged
down in social.

Speaker 4 (08:02):
Issues you, know it's going to take this sort of.

Speaker 5 (08:06):
Unicorn Republican AND i don't know if any of the
people who've already announced fit into that. Category BUT i
do have reasons just from the outside looking, in Because
i'm going to be frank WHEN i SAY i don't
know any of these. PEOPLE i don't Think i've met
any of the people running for A. Republican now that
doesn't mean all that. MUCH i don't spend a tremendous
amount of time circulating In republican party politics, circles, RIGHT

(08:29):
i just. Don't so it's in no way a judgment, like,
OH i don't know these, people but based on WHAT
i know about some of them from The westward and that's.
Important westward is obviously a left leaning. Publication nobody's gonna argue,
that so However westward presents, them that's more than likely

(08:51):
how these candidates are going to be presented by the mainstream,
media who are again most of the, time very invested
in getting A democrat elected In. Colorado we've seen it
happen over and over and over, Again so who do
we have on The republican side right? Now we Have
Greg lopez, here THOUGH i think is a very nice,
man has had multiple failed attempts at running for, office

(09:13):
and he's too. Conservative he is fully pro life with no.
Exceptions he wants to ban. ABORTION i, mean it's just
he's not going to get elected In.

Speaker 4 (09:22):
Colorado, so LIKE i, SAID i don't.

Speaker 5 (09:27):
Understand why people keep coming back unless there's something dramatically,
different and there's not For Greg. Lopez there's not something
dramatically different in this state right. Now Scott bottoms a state.
Representative Scott, bottoms he's A Colorado springs, pastor and the
first Thing westward says is The Colorado springs pastor is
most widely known for his ANTI Lgbt hugh rhetoric in

(09:50):
the State, house including fighting against gay marriage and making
disparaging remarks against transgender. Individuals zero percent chance this guy's
going to get elected a state wide race In.

Speaker 4 (10:00):
Colorado.

Speaker 5 (10:02):
ZERO i, mean does anybody in this audience. Disagree you can, say,
oh he's gonna get. Through The republicans are gonna love
and they're gonna, Well i'm talking about the state wide.

Speaker 4 (10:12):
Election zero.

Speaker 5 (10:13):
Percent chance this guy gets through the General no. Way Mark,
baisley WHO i actually find very. Entertaining State Senator Mark
baisley is the second this is From. Westward by the,
way is the Second colorado. Legislator legislator vying for the governor's.
Office The Woodland Park conservative is a contrarian within The,
senate voting against most proposed new. Laws baisley was elected

(10:37):
to The. House before being elected to The, senate he
previously served as vice chair of The Colorado Republican.

Speaker 4 (10:43):
Party so he's going to be posted or sort of
thrown up.

Speaker 5 (10:48):
As the cranky contrarian a Lah Ran paul Or Ron,
paul and that's how he's going to be. Painted, Now
mark may have a. Chance LIKE i, SAID i find
it very. Entertaining There's jason Mike Sell Teyler County. Sheriff

(11:08):
he has been involved in a seven year legal battle
between him and THE aclu about his office ASSISTING Us
immigration And customs, enforcement.

Speaker 4 (11:21):
And he kind of, won he kind of. Lost that
was kind of a split.

Speaker 5 (11:27):
Decision BUT i Guess i'm not sure what he's running.
On and by the, way we're gonna try and get
Every we're gonna try and get all serious candidates from
both sides of the aisle on the. Show we're going
to reach, out we're going to offer them time because
it's really important you get selected and if we're gonna
have to choose from the Best, democrat which, REALISTICALLY i

(11:50):
think that's how voters need to. Think unless one of
these candidates turns out to be the unicorn That i'm looking.
For Jason clark is running for governor a third time
after failed attempts in twenty ten and twenty. Fourteen An
army veteran and financial, coach he made national headlines during
his previous scubernatorial campaign for posting A craigslist ad to

(12:11):
find a running, mate LANDING tv appearances With Jay leno
And Rachel. Maddow interesting, today we're talking To. Joshumcgriffin he's
An army combat. Veteran he was celebrated BY espn in
twenty nineteen as the Oldest DIVISION i player in college,
football playing For Colorado State university as a walk on

(12:33):
at age thirty. Three he has unsuccessfully run to Represent
colorado's fifth congressional district in twenty twenty four and we're
going to have him on the show today at.

Speaker 4 (12:43):
One he has some good ideas.

Speaker 5 (12:45):
On his, website but he also advocates for high speed
rail on The Front, range which is literally the worst
idea in the history of the.

Speaker 4 (12:54):
World it's, awful absolutely, awful and terrible.

Speaker 5 (13:01):
Idea just, wow, terrible, terrible terrible. Idea but he has
some other good ideas And i'm interested to talk to
him to try and walk him back from this high
speed rail.

Speaker 4 (13:11):
Nonsense Alexander.

Speaker 5 (13:13):
Mugatu while this Is Alexander mugatu's first time seeking the governor's,
office he's a long time career. Candidate he has unsuccessfully
run for The State house six times since twenty, ten
with his attempts spanning across three Different house And senate.
Districts he also fruitlessly ran For Pueblo City council in
twenty twenty four and vice chair of The Colorado Republican

(13:35):
party in twenty twenty. THREE i, mean, you, Guys i'm
not excited about any of these, people, uh not at,
all not.

Speaker 4 (13:43):
Yet and LIKE i, said none of these people strike
me as the unicorn we need.

Speaker 5 (13:51):
Here John elway For governor says This, texter do you
think he'd be a shoe in A rod not only
because he was a great, quarterback but he's just such
a fixture. HERE i really think you could make the
argument that he wouldn't be a shoe, in but he
would definitely start at an. Advantage, ESPECIALLY i mean e
would clear The republican. Field none of these people could, compete.

Speaker 4 (14:14):
Which Quarterback John?

Speaker 5 (14:15):
Elway oh, YEAH i mean that would be that would
be the kind of thing that. ANYBODY i just if
the texture is asking why is the field? Terrible do
you know any of these? People do any of these,
people to your, knowledge have the kind of charisma that

(14:36):
we need to spread the word that what we're doing
In colorado isn't working and if people want to move
things in a different, direction that direction needs to be clearly.
Articulated AND i don't know if any of these people
can do. IT i, mean UNTIL i just read that,
list how many of those? People did you know we're?

Speaker 4 (14:57):
Running?

Speaker 5 (14:58):
Where did you see press conferences like we saw For Michael?
Bennett did you even know the names of the? PEOPLE
i didn't UNTIL i saw this. Article now we're very
very far, out so, Please i'm not scolding you for
not paying attention to the very early, stages but my
point with that, is if there was a big splash
made on The republican.

Speaker 4 (15:18):
Side we would have heard about.

Speaker 5 (15:19):
It but instead we've HAD i, Mean Greg lopez made
a little bit of a. WAVE i don't Think greg
is electable statewide in this state as it is made up,
now you, know and that is That republican who maybe
could get elected in the state gonna come out of
the primary with extremely Conservative republican voters at the core

(15:43):
of the primary voter. BASE i don't, know it's it's
just it's Really Peyton manning for. Governor that would be.
AWESOME i mean only from the perspective OF i would
love to get updates about our state From Peyton.

Speaker 4 (15:56):
MANNING i bet they would be great press.

Speaker 5 (15:59):
Conference BUT i don't know If Peyton manning could run,
stuff and running stuff is a really important part of being,
governor you, know.

Speaker 4 (16:09):
Delegating and running.

Speaker 5 (16:11):
Stuff Dave logan for, Governor oh my, god you, guys
you do not Want Dave logan to be your governor
because it would be a whole new ballgame in this.

Speaker 4 (16:20):
State And i'm not even talking about like the politics of.

Speaker 5 (16:22):
It dave does not suffer, fools and there's a lot
of full suffering that is part of. POLITICS i just
don't See Dave logan ever having the stomach to actively
run and be a. POLITICIAN i just don't see him
Being that is so antithetical to his personality. Type it
JUST i, wonder of Course i'm cutting him off with

(16:45):
the knees now if he. Is you, Know dave, secretly
behind the, scenes has been pondering whether or not to
run for. Governor he's really been mulling it over and seeking.
Counsel And i'm on the radio crapping all over the
idea that he's cut out for. Politics, now one THING
i will say About dave IS.

Speaker 4 (17:00):
I, fully, fully fully believe.

Speaker 5 (17:02):
This Dave logan is one of those people that if you, said, Sorry,
dave you can no longer be the broncos you, know,
caller and you can no longer be a football, Coach
we're gonna make you be a. Welder Dave logan would
be the best welder in the history welders in like three.
Weeks he's that. Guy so whatever he's gonna, do he's gonna. Excel, oh,

(17:23):
precious you are so. Sweet Mandy condell for, Governor, nope N,
o not gonna do, It i'll talk about somebody who
doesn't have the personality for. THAT i, mean most of
the time on the, RADIO i can hide my disdain for.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
Things.

Speaker 4 (17:38):
HUH i KNOW i.

Speaker 5 (17:39):
CAN'T i was kidding even as it came out of my.
MOUTH i was, LIKE i can't sell.

Speaker 8 (17:43):
This this is.

Speaker 5 (17:44):
Crazy nobody's gonna believe That peyton would delegate To.

Speaker 4 (17:49):
Omaha that would be kind of. Funny that's a very good.
Joke Kyle clark for? Governor you know.

Speaker 5 (17:54):
WHAT i could See Kyle clark running for governor at some,
point but he. Enjoys kyle has created a wonderful world for,
himself and It's i'm not knocking him in this in any,
way shape or. Form it's one of the reasons THAT
i love this show and being able to talk to you,
guys and WHY i really consider my listeners like this
big giant dysfunctional family is THAT i like the notion

(18:19):
of like having my, people And Kyle clark has his,
people and he has created such a wonderful career and
fan base THAT i JUST i don't see, him you,
know jumping into something that makes half the population hate.

Speaker 4 (18:29):
Him.

Speaker 5 (18:29):
Automate, well, Nevermind i've remembered WHO i was talking. About
never mind, Anyway Dan kaplis should. Run you know, what,
GUYS i have nothing but respect for my Colleague Dan,
Kaplis but, again he's too pro life to get elected.

Speaker 4 (18:42):
In a state wide.

Speaker 5 (18:42):
Race in my, VIEW i don't think a, staunch rock
ribbed pro lifer is going to get remotely close in this.

Speaker 4 (18:53):
STATE i just don't think it's gonna.

Speaker 5 (18:55):
Happen too many voters in this state of weight in
time and time and, Time i'm again to fully protect,
abortion AND i don't nothing again has shown me that
that is going to. Change all, right, guys we are
going to shift gears entirely because our Man Dave fraser
From fox thirty ones meteorology department is coming on to

(19:16):
talk a little. Weather you can text your weather questions two, five,
six six, Nine oh, okay let's check the, news, traffic
weather back after. This as we do Every, wednesday at
the bottom of the, hour we like to check in
With fox thirty ones chief, meteorologists and that's, chief not,
cheap totally different kind of. Meteorologists Dave. Frasier, Hi, dave

(19:37):
welcome back to the.

Speaker 9 (19:38):
Show, yeah good. Afternoon how you doing on This.

Speaker 5 (19:40):
Wednesday i'm doing, fine BUT i obviously didn't look at
the weather right because WHEN i left my house in
my short, SLEEVES i was. FINE i got out of
my car in The Tech center AND i was, like,
wait What winter? Game what is happening?

Speaker 9 (19:54):
You you should have stayed at your self. Command it's
a little warmer down here than it is up that.

Speaker 4 (19:58):
Way yeah it. Is, yeah.

Speaker 9 (20:00):
Yeah so we had a weak cold front come in
last night and it moved from The it came DOWN
i seventy six from the north and, east and behind
it we have a cool northeast. Flow so the farther
Towards denver and to the north and east to the,
airport you're traveling into that cooler. Air there's actually some
low clouds kind of hanging out just to the east

(20:22):
of the, airport and that's kind of factoring into some
changes in the forecast today for timing of showers.

Speaker 10 (20:29):
And thunderstorms a little.

Speaker 9 (20:30):
Bit we see this from time to time where a
week cold, front or even what we call a backwash
from big storms in The midwest kind of throw higher
humidity and some low clouds onto the eastern, plains and
that low cloud deck limits heating and therefore removes the
chance for. Thunderstorms so where the sun is out down
here in The Castle rock, area we think this is
the area where some storms after three o'clock would fire,

(20:53):
up and then they'll head to the north and. East
it won't be a lot of, them but then they'll
run into that cooler lower cloud deck and that will
kind of cause them to decrease and become just more
light shallowers than actual. Thunderstorm so always fun challenging at
this time of the.

Speaker 5 (21:07):
YEAR i have a question that's not actually a question for.
You we were just talking about the governor's, race but
this is a weather. Question So i'm going to ask
you this, Question, mandy could the new governor change tornado
watch tornado warning to tornado watch tornado?

Speaker 4 (21:23):
HERE i am tired of constantly googling.

Speaker 9 (21:25):
It, NO i don't know that that is a term
that is used. Nationally it has been a term that
those both of those terms have been around for a long.
Time it's from The National Weather. Service it's on a federal.
Level so, NO i do not see where the governor
would have any authority to do, that and it would cause,

(21:45):
confusion AND i know it can be. Confusion the WAY
i tell people is watch means be. Prepared, okay if
you hear a term, watch you need to be. Prepared
find out what the being prepared. Is is it being
prepared for lightning or hail or gusty, wind or is
it in the winter being prepared for potential snow and slick.
Roads so anytime you hear, watch be. Prepared when you hear,

(22:06):
warning you got to. Act so in a thunderstorm warning
you're gonna have, lightning, hail and, wind you need to
do your best to get inside and ride the storm.
Out if you hear tornado, warning you need to get
to a safe. Shelter below ground is. Best but if
you don't have a, basement an interior room away from
outside walls and, windows like a bathroom or a closet
is the. Best so, again, watch be, prepared warning.

Speaker 5 (22:27):
Act, OKAY i have another sassy question from The Common
Spirit health tax.

Speaker 4 (22:32):
Line.

Speaker 5 (22:32):
Dave, here here's a sassy question for. You does the
hot air coming from The Gold dome change the?

Speaker 4 (22:37):
Weather?

Speaker 9 (22:41):
Wow you got some political people listening. Today i'm just
glad the last question wasn't Like Dave logan's, question would
you be willing to run for a, governor and my
question would have, been just like, you a flat, no, no,
no not a.

Speaker 5 (22:53):
Chance here's an interesting, question AND i think there's a
couple different aspects to. This do weather forecasters pay attention
to other networks? Forecasts are you guys ever checking the
competition to see how they are, doing or what they're
looking at or any of that steff to kind of
compare how you guys do versus.

Speaker 9 (23:12):
Them the answer to that is, yes but not to, compare,
right just to kind of see what they're. Doing so
we make our forecast on our. Own we don't even
look at The National Weather service when we make. It
they are the governing. Body they have a group of,
forecasters great forecasters up there In. Boulder they are responsible

(23:32):
for the safety of the public by issuing the watches
in the. Warnings we have our own mechanisms by which
we can get ON tv or on our social platforms
or on our website to disseminate the same type of,
information cautionary, information things about where storms. Are so we
watch the competition because, yeah we're all, competing just as
you are with other radio. Stations we're competing against what

(23:54):
the product is that they're putting on the. Air are
they doing? SOMETHING i judge For Emmy awards and across the,
country And i'll look at entries And i'll look to,
see is there's somebody doing something that's, different that's. Catchy
is a great graphic can illustrate better than something we're.
Doing so we're constantly robin stealing from that, Perspective but
we don't look at them and then, go, oh wait a,

(24:16):
minute they're going, seventy we're sixty. Eight we should probably go.
Seventy so we don't do it from that.

Speaker 4 (24:20):
Perspective, wait there are other radio. STATIONS i wasn't. Aware i'm,
SORRY i have no. Idea and you KNOW i say that,
jokingly BUT i kind of mean.

Speaker 5 (24:31):
It i'd never pay attention to what the competition is
doing because, no especially in, this you, know nobody Is
nobody is doing exactly What i'm. Doing probably a, Purpose
BUT i, Say i'm kind of this, like you, know lone,
Soldier you're either gonna like me or you're. Not there's
not a LOT i can do to convince you of.

Speaker 4 (24:47):
Otherwise.

Speaker 9 (24:48):
This, YEAH i Many and on that, NOTE i will
say the same thing that watching the competition, again you
might be able to gain a little, something BUT i
can't see them, right same as. You you can't be
a different. Host you can't be roth. Right you guys
are two different, people, right and that's the. Same i'm
not going to look at somebody who does the presentation and, go,
oh that's. Cool i'm going to try and be impersonate.

(25:11):
Them it just doesn't work that. Way.

Speaker 5 (25:13):
OKAY i don't know what's going on with the text, Line,
dave but these are all sassy.

Speaker 4 (25:16):
Questions.

Speaker 5 (25:17):
Dave is there a Proper is there a proper way
to do a rain? Dance so, far the hokey pokey
is not working in.

Speaker 9 (25:23):
Fruta you, KNOW i don't know if there is a
magical two step or a tango that will, help BUT
i will tell you THAT i was looking at some statistics,
yesterday and if you take out the big snowstorm we
had back in the Early, november if you remove that
one storm from the equation for moisture for the end

(25:45):
of twenty twenty four and where we have been struggling
here in early twenty twenty, five we are really way.
Behind those storms had actually helped to pad the bottom.
Line if you, will so for, snowfall we're going to
come up short for, snowfall and that's not. Surprising it
would be the third year in a, row that actually
fourth year in a row that we've been. Short you

(26:06):
go back to twenty twenty, one we were seven inches,
behind twenty twenty two seven. Inches last year we were twelve,
inches and this year we're going to be about ten.
Inches so we're going to come up. Short and for
moisture here In march And, april our growing, seasons it's
been stingy and so you, know we had that great
rainy kind Of friday with the snow mixing in last

(26:26):
week and it just kind of stayed all, day and
you would have thought the totals would have been much much,
higher and they. Weren't they were a, meager tense two
tenths of an. Inch we just need better, moisture AND
i just don't have anything right now in the next
ten days other than be scattered. Storms and if you
get under one of those scattered, storms you're fortunate they
come with some, wind, lightning and some small, ale but
you're fortunate to get the.

Speaker 6 (26:46):
Moisture this texter, Said.

Speaker 5 (26:47):
Hey, mandy please Ask dave if there's any basis for
the in like a, lion out like a lamb phenomena For.

Speaker 9 (26:53):
MARCH i mean it's an old. Saying sometimes it, works
sometimes it. Doesn't sometimes in and out can be both
lions and both. Lambs so it is one of those
that the hope is if it comes in like a,
lamb that it will turn like a, lion meaning we
get more active weather or the. Reverse either, way it
doesn't dictate what we might see in so Far march

(27:16):
with a lamb and apolsman a, lamb and let's hope
we get some more moisture because aprile shallers Bring may.
Flowers if we don't get the aple, shallows we're going
to be struggling to keep our grasses looking green in
our tree as.

Speaker 4 (27:26):
Well last question for, You i've Got rick And. Littleton
he wants to know if there's going to be another
hard frost in the rest of this. Spring.

Speaker 9 (27:34):
Yeah you, know we're starting to get to those. Questions
we still haven't reached the average, date which is in Early,
may SO i would caution people everything's turning, green do
some watering by. HAND i know that what people want
to know is is it? Okay you, know, YEAH i
hedge my dets on those Because i've said it many
times with. YOU i don't want to be the guy
that gives the all clear and all of a, sudden

(27:54):
the forecast the eight days changes and we're back below
freezing and people are busting. Pipe SO i think you
just stay the, course hang, on do some, handwatering connect
the hoses if you want to stay away from planting
anything in the ground or potting. ANYTHING i, mean you
could potch that you got to bring it, in, Right
but at this POINT i would, say you, Know i'm
not seeing any cold, snaps But i'm still seeing temperatures

(28:15):
in the mid to upper thirties.

Speaker 6 (28:16):
Overnight all, right That's Dave.

Speaker 5 (28:17):
Frasier you can watch his forecast along with the other
crack squad of meteorologists over there At fox thirty.

Speaker 4 (28:23):
One, dave we will talk to you next, week my.

Speaker 9 (28:25):
Friend all, right enjoy your sasity.

Speaker 5 (28:27):
Listards they are on fire, today you, people you sassy
sassy people on the text line Sassy. Mandy there was
a guy In San, DIEGO i, believe in nineteen hundred
that did a rain dance that caused record. FLOODS i,
mean THOUGH i realize that back in nineteen, hundred the

(28:47):
folk might have been more convinced because of the lack
of understanding on how things like weather patterns actually. Happen
i'm guessing that the man happened to do rain dance
at exactly the right, time just before a weather. System
and by the, way think About california's weather is either

(29:08):
glorious or it. Sucks it's either the most perfect weather,
ever or everything's on, fire or there's a monsoon and
the hill the hillsides are just sliding onto the. Roadway
it's just like it's either perfect or. Horrible it's Like Dante's.
Inferno So i'm, guessing And i'm JUST i could be.

(29:29):
Wrong maybe there is some sort of evidence that his
particular rain dance did indeed cause that massive. Flood But
i'm just gonna color me. Skeptical text her put.

Speaker 7 (29:41):
Me in That.

Speaker 5 (29:42):
Mandy do weather forecasters ever downplay whether to not hurt?
Tourism my dad believes they do this In San diego
when rain is in the, forecast so people will still
go To Sea.

Speaker 4 (29:51):
World every meteorologist THAT i have ever, known AND i
have been.

Speaker 5 (29:54):
Very lucky to know multiple television, meteorologists and, honestly some
of my favorite people IN tv are, meteorologists and to a,
person they believe that their job is keeping the public,
safe and if there is ever a situation where the
weather is going to be potentially, dangerous they feel is

(30:15):
their responsibility to make sure that the public has that.
Information SO i just don't see that. Happening, plus every
time there's a mention of severe weather in a television,
newscast the ratings go.

Speaker 4 (30:27):
Up that is a.

Speaker 5 (30:28):
Fact one could be, snow could be a, tornado could
be a. Hurricane they all go. Up so, YEAH i
don't think they're going to do. That mandy can't do
a rain, dance But i'm awesome at the peepee.

Speaker 4 (30:39):
Dance it's a sassy.

Speaker 5 (30:43):
Day on the text line, TODAY i just REALIZED i
forgot to link to the underlying. Story so The New
York times has an article today and at the top
of the hour Break i'll go and add.

Speaker 4 (30:54):
IT i know WHERE i got. It this is lamenting
the fact.

Speaker 5 (30:59):
That people who Criticize Elon, musk even with very large
followings ON, x are seeing their traffic, throttled meaning none
of their stuff is getting shown to anybody. Else, okay
shadow banning was a policy under an unofficial policy under
The Jack dorsey version led version Of twitter that was

(31:21):
full of, censorship but mostly of people on the. Right
so The New York times is concerned because three people
that they spoke, to all of them hard right people
who two of Them i'm not familiar with the work
of one of them at, all but two of them
are absolute nutbars in my. Estimation one of them Is Laura. Lumer, Hey,

(31:42):
ron do you Remember laura lumor walking around at THE
rnc waiting for someone to ask her to talk to.
THEM i pointed her out to you and, said she's
literally walking around trying to get someone to talk to.

Speaker 4 (31:53):
Her it was sad and. Pathetic, yeah you remember Who
i'm talking. About.

Speaker 5 (31:58):
SHE i, mean it was just but she is a
right wing nutbar who has no conspiracy. Theory is too
great For Laura lumer and you, know like other right wing,
nutbars on, Occasion laura has been right about. Stuff but
it drives me absolutely insane That President trump gives her
access to him on any.

Speaker 4 (32:18):
Level that is WHERE i, Say.

Speaker 5 (32:22):
Donald, trump you, know, Loyalty trump's good judgment sometimes when
it comes to people that he decides are doing a great.
Job she Loves Donald, trump but she's not a fan
Of Elawn musk and his stance on visas for immigrant,
workers and she blasted him Last. December and they go
through this big ringgor. Role they show, charts the show
their traffic is falling off a. Cliff but at the same,

(32:46):
time YESTERDAY i follow an account called Cat, turd quite
famous account ON, x very snarky account ON. X it's
actually at cat turd. Two this cat tured one got
banned under Old twitter and captured is complaining About x's
algorithm and how even he's talked to hundreds of large

(33:08):
account creators and they've all seen their engagement absolutely fall.

Speaker 4 (33:12):
Off listen to this the last three or four.

Speaker 5 (33:15):
Weeks the algorithm has been so bad ON x it's
hard to justify putting wait for, it twelve to fifteen
hours a day on here.

Speaker 4 (33:25):
And busting.

Speaker 5 (33:25):
Her you know what when you just get throttled to
helen back for no. Reason So The New York times
is now defending these three far right. Accounts NOW i
went back in. Time it didn't take me long to
find a story About The New York times talking about
How twitter and X x Since Elon musk took, over had.

Speaker 4 (33:45):
Become a sesspool of right wing.

Speaker 5 (33:47):
Nonsense and, now my, god these people are just out
of control because they've all had their. Accounts and Now
The New York times is, like you know, what we
need to protect these people that we were just running
down a few years, Ago, oh Because Elon musk. Bad
and here's HOW i feel about. It Elon musk spent
forty billion. Dollars, WELL i, mean he didn't pull it

(34:08):
out of his pocket. CHANGE i get, it but he
committed to back alone worth forty billion dollars to BUY.
X he can do whatever he wants with. IT i
really don't. CARE i, mean don't get me. WRONG i
do think that it is far more free than it was.
Before and others say things, like, oh the anti semitism
or oh the. RACISM i simply don't see that in my.

(34:30):
Feed you, know we talked yesterday about how to avoid that.
Stuff but it's it's.

Speaker 4 (34:35):
Just insane.

Speaker 5 (34:38):
That we have people on the left that are contorting
themselves to completely ignore their prior positions in an effort
to make whoever they're coming after now on the right look.
Bad it's just it's. INCREDIBLE i don't even know Why i'm.
SURPRISED i Guess i'm just. Disappointed did your mom ever
do that to you when you were?

Speaker 4 (34:59):
Little like you?

Speaker 5 (34:59):
Do i'm thinking you knew it wasn't the right thing to,
do and she wouldn't yell at. You she wouldn't she
wouldn't bereate. You she would just look at you and,
GO i am so disappointed in.

Speaker 4 (35:08):
You for, me that was a knife in the. Heart
for my older, SISTER i don't think she, cared but for.

Speaker 5 (35:14):
Me and by the, way fun parenting tip if you
don't already, know you got to punish your kids. Individually
you got to find the soft spots that you can
just press on.

Speaker 8 (36:57):
Race, well first of, all thank you so much for having.
Us i'm always gonna say us because it's not just.
Me here is everybody that's standing with me and supporting
me that has brought me.

Speaker 10 (37:08):
Here that's a good. Question been in the, military it's
been about two decades fighting in hot desert you know.

Speaker 8 (37:18):
Locations and ALSO i grew up In, Houston, texas you,
know so you can onways imagine the heat down there as.
Well so WHEN i got stationed here almost like twenty,
fifteen you, KNOW i fell in love With, colorado the,
beauty the. PEOPLE i, mean during that, time we had
a pulinary. Boom so, anyway so me and my, wife you,
Know i'm a wife, here we had a children, here

(37:40):
and we want to stay. Here, however it is becoming
so bad for, housing small, businesses, crime et. Cetera that
is becoming a place that we don't want to raise
our kids. Anymore and instead of just hoteiling and running
away and, saying all, right we're done with this place
to go somewhere. Else you, Know i'm a fighter by,
nature AND i always want to protect and certain. PEOPLE

(38:02):
i want to continue my service or this, country and
if that means serving us a country and the protecting
capacity of being a state, legislator A victorian, CANDIDATE i really,
believe don't push your problems to somebody else or run from.

Speaker 10 (38:15):
Them stand, there dig, in fight in to help everybody.

Speaker 4 (38:18):
ELSE i love that.

Speaker 5 (38:19):
Attitude tell me a little bit about, you you personally
and why or how you got to be this guy
that we're seeing.

Speaker 10 (38:26):
Now.

Speaker 8 (38:28):
Oh, man traveling, arrow loads of, mistakes loads of. HUMILITY
i think the biggest things that you, Know i'll want
people to understand about me is That number, ONE i
am an obsessed.

Speaker 10 (38:38):
FATHER i am a loving and endearing never make the
marks all the.

Speaker 8 (38:44):
Time but what husband does to my, WIFE i, mean she's, gorgeous,
beautiful and what a, wonderful wonderful.

Speaker 10 (38:49):
Supporter and you, KNOW i can't speak enough about my.
Wife i'm a. LAWYER i don't get too much into
the cliches.

Speaker 8 (38:58):
Of What i've done in the, military because at the
end of the, DAY i wasn't special in the. Military
it was the people that was special in the. Military
and you, know one thing we learned in special operations
is that you're not. Special is the mission that's. Special
it's the people that you serve and protect that are.
Special in, last but not, least you, Know i'm somebody

(39:18):
that aspires to see other people, happy to see other
people smile and not get caught up into twenty percent
that we disagree, in but live within the eighty percent
that we can learn to love and acknowledge and respect the.

Speaker 5 (39:31):
Lissm you, Know I'M i want to know what makes?
You what is your sort of your guiding compass that makes?
You because because some of your policy positions are extremely,
conservative you, know, fiscally, foundationally very conservative in their, methodology
AND i love, THAT i really. Do but you also
seem to have the ability or the desire to take

(39:55):
care of families in this state in a way that
doesn't necessarily saying conservatives are hurtless and you don't care about,
families but using things in the power of government in
order to assist families as. Well so where would you
put yourself on the political? Spectrum you are A, Republican
but where would you say you are? From you, know
center right to h as far right as you can.

(40:17):
Imagine where would you put?

Speaker 4 (40:18):
Yourself?

Speaker 3 (40:21):
Uh?

Speaker 10 (40:21):
NOWHERE i think WE i don't.

Speaker 8 (40:23):
Think, actually, RATHER i know we make a mistake and
talk about where we stand on the on the line
of the spectrum when there are multifacets of that spectrum
that you're going to be embedded in you, know whether
it is social, economics, FAMILY i, mean. Infrastructure there's so
much and so that's why we dubbed the philosophy foxhole,

(40:46):
politics because we're not telling you that we're anywhere on the.
Spectrum our main tenants are defending the, base helping each other,
out and living in a space where we can actually
complete the mission and help each other come back home
to where it's safe and just. Pleasing and SOMETHING i
want to put out, there, GUESTS i am A, republican

(41:08):
and YES i have some very conservative views and some
would say some you, know borderline libertarian, things AND i
do have a heart for, people very very, much so for.
CHILDREN i put it like, this we need to stop
with the political. Identities we have to stop, that we

(41:31):
have to stop with the. Extremisms and something that we're
doing in our campaign is that we want to help
birth the age of political, togetherness you, know a unity
under the one tribe OF usa and give each other
the space to divorce ourselves from the.

Speaker 4 (41:49):
Extremes you have a career as an, attorney you have
a career in the.

Speaker 5 (41:53):
Military what would you say to people who, say, look
this guy hasn't run anything as big as the state Of.

Speaker 4 (41:59):
COLORADO i, mean he's not a.

Speaker 5 (42:01):
Politician he doesn't understand how the system works because he's
outside of.

Speaker 4 (42:04):
It how do you respond to those kind of, Criticisms.

Speaker 10 (42:08):
WELL i mean maybe a little.

Speaker 8 (42:09):
PLAYER i am not an, attorney ALTHOUGH i was A
bears lawyer. Jokingly, No i'm an engineer by. Trade as
my company we do a lot of aircraft engineering stuff like.
That but to get to the point of the criticism
that you, say the first POINT i like to add,
is SO i was young enough to go fight for

(42:32):
our country and lead our sons and daughters in, battlefields
to potentially die for our, country But i'm not old
enough to help lead our country within his. Borders to,
me that seems very oxymoronic and in varying selfish if
you will, That, hey you're good enough to die.

Speaker 10 (42:50):
For, us but you're not good enough to help lead.

Speaker 8 (42:52):
Us so what makes what makes my leadership and the
battlefield different than my leadership?

Speaker 10 (42:57):
Here which a lot of people, say.

Speaker 8 (42:59):
Although it may not be, physical and most times you,
know it is a battle field of, thought a battle
field of unity and, Complexity and at the end of the,
day you, know they say that the definition of the
sanity is doing something over and over again expecting a different.
RESULT i ask people that are listen to us right,

(43:21):
now how many politicians have you voted for with the
understanding that they, say, HEY i can fix. This but
yet they've been in the they are part of the
problem for at least a. Decade and so that's that's
my pushback in those type of.

Speaker 5 (43:34):
Criticisms what do you think is the biggest issue that
you want to tackle first if you become. Governor what
is the first thing that you're, like we have got
to fix.

Speaker 7 (43:42):
This?

Speaker 4 (43:44):
Water really h TWO o water in what? WAY i,
Mean we've got The Colorado River.

Speaker 5 (43:51):
Compact AND i don't want to go too details here
BECAUSE i will tell you this my experience as a
talk show host, says when you talk about, water people's
eyes glaze. Over we all know it's, important right it
theoretically we all know it's, important but it is such
it's really, dense and it is a it is a you,
know when you're talking about water rights and water compacts
and how much you, know square foot by you know

(44:12):
mile or whatever that we're getting that we're not.

Speaker 4 (44:14):
GETTING i, mean it's just it's. Complicated why is that your?

Speaker 8 (44:18):
Issue, well one of the first things that you do
if you are ever lost in the woods or in
a desolate, area the first thing you need.

Speaker 10 (44:27):
To find out is where the water. Is, why because
it's the things all. Life. Right then you build your,
shelter then you get your fire going, on and so
forth and so.

Speaker 8 (44:36):
On the reason why the water is, important, first let
me tell you. This there is no such thing as
a complex. Solution it's just complex people to make that solution.
Complex and so if we begin to us er in
a new era where we actually start to see each
other as, people and, actually whether you're on A democrat

(44:56):
side Or republican, side notice THAT i don't stay far
left L, forwright because we need to aborts ourselves with.
Them we should understand that, hey you might be on that,
STREAM i might be on this, river but we're all
coming together into the final, destination which.

Speaker 10 (45:09):
Should be the same.

Speaker 8 (45:09):
Ocean and so when we have that type of ideology and,
philosophy you, know then we can actually move together to solve.
Problems but in speaking of the, water you, know, well,
easy all you gotta do just creat another.

Speaker 10 (45:25):
Pack all you gotta do is just talk about we
have so much technology that we don't.

Speaker 8 (45:29):
USE i, mean there's a desalination one of the biggest desalidation,
plants and they'll pass Through. Texas we can definitely just
go over To texas and Get New, Mexico, KANSAS i
mean all the other states and credit a new pack
bring that water over.

Speaker 10 (45:41):
Here and why is water so?

Speaker 4 (45:43):
Important?

Speaker 8 (45:43):
Again water sustains. Life so you have more water, Here number,
one that increases. Jobs, two it gives you the ability
now to actually divorce or actually free up a lot
of the river water for the farmers and the ranches.
Solely while we take this water and we Expand colorado
down the south, right creating new, towns new, cities and you,

(46:06):
know actually helped decrease. HOUSING i, Mean colorado isn't overpopulated
or over. Saturate why because our water limits us to.

Speaker 4 (46:15):
Locations that is a really interesting.

Speaker 5 (46:18):
IDEA i mean, That so are you talking about pipelines
OR i would like to how do we get the
salt water up?

Speaker 4 (46:23):
Here i'm not opposed to.

Speaker 5 (46:24):
DESALINIZATION i think it is an idiotic thing That california
still gets water from The Colorado river when they can
be desalinating the Entire Pacific ocean and solving so many.

Speaker 4 (46:35):
Problems SO i that is a super interesting.

Speaker 5 (46:38):
IDEA i don't know how feasible that is in terms
of the sort of infrastructure. Investment WHAT i think might
be the case, Here, josh is THAT.

Speaker 4 (46:48):
I think it's gonna have.

Speaker 5 (46:49):
To get a lot worse before we can really consider
the kind of stuff you're talking, about you know WHAT i, Mean,
like it's not bad enough yet for us to talk
about doing a massive project of that, size BUT i, mean,
realistically if you could pipeline, up like a really big
pipeline starting at The, gulf pipeline up the water and
as it comes, up you could send it off to

(47:11):
various desalinization plants along the. Way that solves a whole
lot of problems for our water system. Here so that's
a very interesting. Idea one of the things that THAT
i hope And i'm just going to say this to
you and.

Speaker 4 (47:24):
You do with it what you. Will what are your?
Voice what are your views on the social?

Speaker 5 (47:28):
Issues And i'm not asking what your view on each issue,
Is i'm asking you how much a part do you
want social issues to be a part of your?

Speaker 8 (47:36):
Campaign barely Any i'm one to believe that legislation should
not be in our. Homes there are plenty of walls
that bat, That and at the same, time we are
struggling to meet to meet any kind of ends meet

(47:56):
when it comes to feeding our, family providing, housing taking
care of one. Another if we were actually to increase
the integrity of our education, system if we spend more
time focusing on generational wealth and rewarding people for their hard,
Work i'm almost certain that you would see a lot

(48:16):
of social issues die. Down because, again if we continue
to go on this path of IF i disagree with
one thing that.

Speaker 10 (48:25):
You, SAY i hate to dislike all of.

Speaker 8 (48:27):
You, right that is not good for a country that
is built on the foundations of, wife liberty and pursuit of.

Speaker 10 (48:34):
Happiness you, know and we. ARE i, mean political.

Speaker 8 (48:38):
Identity is probably one of the greatest existential threats to
our sovereignty.

Speaker 5 (48:43):
Today SEE i THINK i understand what you're saying, There
but for, me it's the tribalism that goes along with that, identity,
Right like you could be a rock ribbed conservative and
still not be. Tribal it's, like you, know my, FATHER
i will tell you my father was as conservative as
the day is.

Speaker 4 (48:59):
LONG i mean to, say you, know.

Speaker 5 (49:00):
He loved Rush, limbab but he was a little too
liberal for my dad kind of. Thing but at the same,
time my dad wasn't afraid to criticize people in the
party for various. Things it wasn't just you're not conservative.
Enough it was policy. Specific SO i Just i'd like
to see the tribalism go out of. That we have
textures coming in on the text. Line colorado has plenty of,

(49:23):
water we just don't have enough water. Storage they've been
arguing about The Glade reservoir for forty.

Speaker 4 (49:29):
Years. Now if you were, governor what would you do
in terms of water? Storage, well, One i'm not going
to get on air and LIKE i know.

Speaker 10 (49:38):
Everything that's the first Thing i'm not going To.

Speaker 8 (49:40):
Okay, SECOND i would definitely read all the LITERATURE i
can to make myself at least strong in the premise
of the. Situation BUT i would lean on a subject matter.
Experts and, again the better question is why is it for?

(50:01):
Years is it because of all the infighting and a
state leg? Relationship is it people just can't get? Along you, know,
again you said something that is, True BUT i would
definitely want to push back on.

Speaker 10 (50:14):
It why do we have to wait until things get
too bad to fix them?

Speaker 5 (50:18):
Now, yeah WELL i wish it wasn't that, way But
i've also been watching professionally watching politics for twenty years.
Now this is my job AND i can tell you
how these things play, out and this is what's going to.

Speaker 4 (50:31):
Happen this is my.

Speaker 5 (50:32):
Prediction we're going to have to wait until the entire
front range almost dries, up so politicians can take an
idea that you have today at some unknown point in the,
future and at the last minute create a huge, problem
then swoop in to save it in a way that
would have been much cheaper and much more effective if
they'd done it, earlier and then they will claim credit
for saving the front range with. Water that's how it's

(50:55):
going to play, out because they want to be able
to fund all their other. Priorities, first speaking of, WHICH
i want to have the one issue on your website
and you can find out more About joshua At Joshua
griffin The number FOUR ceo dot. Com AND i put
a link on the blog so you can just go
to mandy'sblog dot com and find. It the one Area,
joshua WHERE i was, like, oh, child please know this is, bad, bad,

(51:15):
Bad and that is building a light rail and underground transit.
SYSTEM i mass transit is a boondoggle that never pays.
Off it only pays off developers and people who are
lucky enough to buy the land before they sell it
at inflated prices to someone. Else and if you listen
to my, SHOW i don't care if you listen to
any other. Time you listen with my Futurist thomas Frayes

(51:37):
on and we talk about the future of. Transportation self driving,
cars things of that nature are going to completely fundamentally
change how we move from POINT a to POINT.

Speaker 4 (51:46):
B and light rail and all.

Speaker 5 (51:48):
Of this stuff is going to be completely useless other
than for. Cargo so please reconsider that AND i can
get you to some experts if.

Speaker 2 (51:55):
You want to rely on.

Speaker 4 (51:56):
Someone but other than, that you got a lot.

Speaker 5 (51:58):
Of good stuff on here other than. Water what is
your favorite thing to talk? About what is your passion?

Speaker 8 (52:04):
Issue definitely generational. Wealth and let me touch a little
bit on the light rail or the high speed rail.
System so in the, military whenever you do anything in
a mission or as far as, planning.

Speaker 10 (52:17):
Admission everything's in, phases, right and each phase is.

Speaker 8 (52:23):
Conditioned on the next phase and so. Forth the soul
one that is a novel idea that we have because
anybody goes OFF i twenty five understands the congestion in
that understands that the dangers of going To denver to
For collins or call it all springs is very.

Speaker 10 (52:38):
Prevalent so when we talk about, that that is probably
the last.

Speaker 8 (52:43):
Phase but, Again i'm not going to tell PEOPLE i
promise to do, everything but one THING i will say
IS i promise to listen and always do the most
common sense.

Speaker 10 (52:52):
Action but as far as my favorite thing to talk about.

Speaker 8 (52:55):
Is increasing generational, wealth which means we really if you
look at our, model we really think that it will
be beneficial to all people to create a sovereign wealth
fund to, actually you, know really looser, regulation increase our,
output create a corporate like entity In colorado to actually
we will bring in corporations to come, in will foster

(53:17):
stronger small, businesses like we really want to be a
small business advocate and champion in the established cities and.
Towns and then actually with the water Expand, colorado build
more towns or expand or establish them.

Speaker 10 (53:34):
Bigger and then whether it is is that instead.

Speaker 8 (53:37):
Of relying on taxes all the, time we invest in
ourselves and kind of like the tabor instead of at taber, Is,
hey you can only expend this, much and once we.

Speaker 10 (53:47):
Reach this, cap we either have to give it back
to you or we have to decide on what to
do it with a sovereign wealth fund will, say, okay
we have gained x amount, people what do you want
to do with?

Speaker 8 (53:57):
This you want to go ahead and expand this, area
you will give, people or we can even The norway,
model the last.

Speaker 10 (54:03):
Amounel where we put money back in people's.

Speaker 8 (54:05):
Pockets that's WHAT i really care about because hear me
and hear me well beyond existentialisms of far.

Speaker 10 (54:13):
Left far right and all the kind of jazz and
then you, know we understand the the fragulty of the,
media at least the legacy.

Speaker 8 (54:20):
Media today one of the last last strongholds of our
sovereignty and our republic is small businesses and the ability
to actually work hard and retain something for you and your.
Family and we stop all small businesses and we just spifle.
It which you're going to see is the middle class
the window to none, existent and then we will truly

(54:42):
have a tyrannical force where we'll have the wealthy coming
during and just literally controlling the.

Speaker 10 (54:48):
Poor and that's one thing we don't.

Speaker 4 (54:50):
Want, OKAY i need more on.

Speaker 5 (54:52):
That that SOUNDS i need more details on that particular.
Aspect you're listening, to josh. McGriffin a lot of people
are now having a spirited discussion about. Desalinization so that's
kind of an idea THAT i had not thought of
before this. Person you, know you guys are getting into the,
details AND i want to kind Of we've got one more,

(55:13):
question And i'm trying to figure out WHERE i want.

Speaker 4 (55:15):
To, oh you want to talk about restoring law and
order In.

Speaker 5 (55:18):
Colorado AND i believe that this is a compelling. Message
BUT i just realized what time it, Is, joshua give
me your elevator. Speech why should people vote for you
in the in the primary for?

Speaker 8 (55:28):
Governor my whole, life protecting is certain and that's WHAT
i want to continue to. Do AND i want to say,
besides the governor's race was also equal is the race
for Ag.

Speaker 10 (55:40):
We need somebody to come in and work with the.

Speaker 8 (55:42):
Governor let's pray it that it is, us and let's
actually give people a state where people can walk at
night and not fear for their. Lives let's give a
state where people are not coming daring, apartments where we're
actually holding people to the, law but not just in
a tyrannical. Force we're giving people the ability to actually
uplift one another and adhere to the social contract of

(56:03):
creating sustaining.

Speaker 4 (56:05):
Justice That's Joshua.

Speaker 5 (56:07):
Griffin you can find his Website Joshua griffin for The
number four coo dot. COM i also put a link
on the Blog Joshua great first interview on the, show
And i'm Sure i'm gonna be talking to you again
because this is gonna be a long, race so we
will talk to you one more.

Speaker 4 (56:21):
Time thanks for making time for me. Today thank you.
Man all, right that Is Joshua.

Speaker 5 (56:26):
Griffin he is running for governor and we're gonna be
back in just a few. Minutes interesting, conversation like. He'salonization
it had not occurred to, me but Now i'm thinking to, myself,
huh maybe not a horrible. Idea, anyway when we get,
back let's see, Here i've got so much stuff on The,

(56:47):
okay there's the Funniest Babylon bee That i'm just gonna
explain to you because it's just it's so, funny and
it's on today's. BLOG i can be mischievous, now just
to give you a little window into the world of
what it's like to be a talk show. HOST i
get all THESE pr pitches every. DAY i MEAN i
get a. Million they want me to interview this person
or that person about this or, that and some of
them are so insanely. Ridiculous BUT i just saw this

(57:09):
one today and it gave me an. Idea SO i
got pitched a segment On formula one, racing AND i
thought to, myself would it be? Funny BECAUSE i always
think about entirely like to start for the. Show i'm, Like,
okay will it be, informative will the audience find it?
Interesting DO i find it? Interesting and then will it be?

(57:31):
Funny this falls into the last category of. THOSE i,
thought would it be Funny IF i had this guy
come on AND i just leaned in and pretended LIKE
i knew he was talking about the entire time like
whatever he.

Speaker 4 (57:44):
SAID i was, like oh my, gosh that's exactly WHAT
i was. THINKING i, mean would it be? FUNNY i don't,
know maybe maybe.

Speaker 5 (57:51):
Not you can text us on The Common Spirit health
text line at five six six nine oh to the
textor who, Said mandy The babylon b has been crushing
it in the last. Week The Dalai lama one was.
Great they put a laughing face, emoji but you, KNOW
i just changed it to. Great Today's Babylon. Bee embedded
on the blog at mandy'sblog dot com is a picture

(58:14):
OF aoc And Liz warren drinking out of what appears
to be, like you, know gatorade bottles or, whatever except
aocs is bright pink And Liz warrens is bright, green
and the caption, Says democrats begin chugging artificial food dies
to PROTEST. Rfk it's funny because it's. Feasible you can see. That,

(58:39):
well of, course, yeah, YESTERDAY rfk junior day before actually
banned a bunch of food dies that are petroleum. Based
and hearing the discussions about this have been fascinating because
all of a, sudden all of a, sudden you have
people who are arguing in favor of. This they're arguing

(58:59):
for the freedom we should, have freedom the government shouldn't
be in the business the banning.

Speaker 4 (59:04):
Stuff but how many of you knew that those food.

Speaker 5 (59:09):
Dies which are in a ton of stuff came from,
petroleum that they're non food food.

Speaker 4 (59:14):
Additives BECAUSE i.

Speaker 5 (59:17):
Did not know, it AND i consider myself somewhat educated
about such. Things AND i Heard ross, today And ross
is way more libertarian THAN i. Am And ross was
kind of having that moment THAT i experienced last week
when a listener sent me a text and, said wait a, Minute,
MANDY i thought you were a libertarian and now you're
talking about having the government banned, stuff which is a

(59:38):
fair criticism.

Speaker 4 (59:39):
In the grand scheme of.

Speaker 5 (59:40):
Things but the reality is is that the federal government
is allegedly regulating what goes into.

Speaker 4 (59:46):
Food and it never occurred to me as a.

Speaker 5 (59:48):
CITIZEN i needed to, say, yeah you know, What i'd
like to know which parts of my food are petroleum.
BASED i know that there's certain parts of certain foods
that are like bug, Based like the standards for some
foods are.

Speaker 4 (01:00:03):
Like you could have x percentage of roach.

Speaker 5 (01:00:05):
Bodies it's, true you, guys this is why you should
stay away from ultra processed. Food and IF i can
gross you out, enough, well then by, gosh by, GOLLY
i Would mandy doesn't sound, funny sounds, disingenuous you know.

Speaker 4 (01:00:19):
What it could go either.

Speaker 5 (01:00:20):
Way i'm gonna throw this out just to See Mandy
ross has a monopoly on wasting our. Time please don't
go there with the formula one. Stuff but could it be?

Speaker 4 (01:00:33):
Funny? Though you, know could it be?

Speaker 5 (01:00:36):
Funny it would be embarrassing to the. CALLER i BET
i could pull it off and he wouldn't even know
THAT i was pranking.

Speaker 4 (01:00:41):
HIM i BET i. Could NOW i feel like it's a.
Challenge can she make this?

Speaker 5 (01:00:48):
Funny are they non nutrient food varnishes like In christmas?

Speaker 4 (01:00:53):
Vacation could BE i will say. This could you imagine if.

Speaker 5 (01:00:58):
They actually put the ingredients of the ingredients on the,
food like you'd flip it, over you'd flip over a
bottle box of fruit. LOOPS a lot of people are
focusing on fruit. LOOPS i saw an image AND i
of course went to grab it SO i could share
it on the blog AND x, up you, know, refreshed
AND i couldn't find it.

Speaker 4 (01:01:15):
Again so it was an.

Speaker 5 (01:01:17):
Image of fruit loops In europe and fruit loops in
The United, states and the fruit loops In europe are
a very pale imitation of the colors of the fruit
loops in The United, states because they've already banned all
these dyes and additives and stuff that doesn't need, to you,
know go into our. Food so people are showing this

(01:01:38):
and look up the red dye made from. BUGS i,
mean that's better than gas OR i mean the, petroleum,
right doesn't.

Speaker 4 (01:01:45):
It so they've already banned.

Speaker 5 (01:01:49):
This we've got fruit, loops you, know we Just i'm
shocked by the way that these food companies have until
the end of twenty twenty six to make this. Happen
they had to have seen the writing on the, walls
but maybe they were so certain that they'd managed to
sort of had that same revolving door that THE fda
has to get approval for these food. Additives, now imagine
if we had to flip over that box of froot

(01:02:10):
loops and look at the ingredients and it said petroleum
based red number, three you, know petroleum based blue number,
four would you have.

Speaker 4 (01:02:19):
Been less likely or more likely to buy?

Speaker 5 (01:02:21):
It you got to find out what the words on
the label, mean and sometimes it will completely gross you.

Speaker 4 (01:02:28):
Out trust me on, this.

Speaker 5 (01:02:32):
And the more you, find the less you want to
eat this. Stuff so, yeah that's, That. MANDY, omg the
GATORADE i just drank has blue number one coloring.

Speaker 4 (01:02:44):
It i'm as good as.

Speaker 6 (01:02:45):
Dead you know.

Speaker 4 (01:02:46):
What i'm just going to say, it drive yourself to
the nearest. Hospital don't really do. That i'm just. Kidding
text her to not do.

Speaker 5 (01:02:54):
That, ultimately the issues AND i have not seen any
studies that prove causation on a. LEVEL i have seen
a lot of studies that prove. Correlation AND i have
anecdotally several friends whose kids were diagnosed in like early
middle school WITH adhd and the doctors recommended. Medication but

(01:03:16):
these moms are, like you know, What we're going to
try some stuff that's not medication before we do. That
and they completely overhauled their kids. DIETS i mean completely
overhauled their kids, diets took all the crap, out fed
them real, food no more. CRAP i, mean don't get me,
wrong there, Kids so they had some crab here and,
there but overhauling the kid's diets were enough to resolve

(01:03:39):
the symptoms for kids with mild DEMDERATE. Adhd And i've
seen that in my own life and it's things like
making sure that there's no artificial food dies eating real.
Food even the processed food that they eat is free
of all the dyes and extra crap that they don't.
Need because it's just about stimulating our visual, appetite, Right
that's all the colors. Do they provide no benefit for,

(01:04:01):
taste they provide no benefit for. Texture they are simply
to market the product to our eyes.

Speaker 4 (01:04:07):
So we'll want to eat. It and that's, insane absolutely. Insane.
Mandy it's your. Show do what you.

Speaker 5 (01:04:14):
WANT i listen every day down here In, Bula, colorado
AND i appreciate you In. Beulah, mandy you should have
a taste test of cereal and other dyed things and
compare a box you bought now Versus New. Year, oh
that's very, interesting but there would be a freshness issue
at that. Point green cucumber lime gatorade is the. Best,

(01:04:38):
ooh that sounds. Awful wochoch cock and. Meal insects make
the red, dye of, course but.

Speaker 4 (01:04:47):
You can eat an. INSECT i, Mean.

Speaker 5 (01:04:52):
I'm not gonna eat, insect but you can eat an. Insect,
somebody have you ever eaten those? Crickets did we do
that on the. Show DID i make you eat crickets
or just?

Speaker 4 (01:04:59):
Testicles? Anthony, okay just the. Testicles. Yeah so remember did
your seven eleven ever sell the boxes of? Crickets was
that a?

Speaker 10 (01:05:06):
Thing?

Speaker 5 (01:05:07):
Okay our seven eleven near me THAT i used to
stop in a lot don't really stop in.

Speaker 4 (01:05:10):
Anymore they used to sell boxes of.

Speaker 5 (01:05:12):
Crickets AND i was, like is this where we are
right now in The United states Of america WHERE i
do not have to eat?

Speaker 4 (01:05:18):
Crickets crickets are.

Speaker 5 (01:05:20):
One of those last resort type situations, like, oh AM
i starving to, Death i'll have some, crickets but not
Oh i'd like a clever. Snack i'll eat some crickets Those,
no that is not a thing at. All Interview Gary
brekka about this. TOPIC i think he was on your
brother's show. TOO i will have to go back and, look,

(01:05:41):
manby this is WHERE i keep. Kosher we know it's
in our food and where it comes. FROM i just
read the most fascinating long. STORY i don't THINK i
included it on the, blog BUT i probably, should about
the history of pork throughout the centuries and why certain,
religions Including, judaism forbid the consumption of. Pork and there's
not really a clear sort of you know. Why there's

(01:06:03):
a lot of speculation about why it. Is but it
was so fascinating to see how the poor pig has
been demonized mostly because of. Trichinosis alternative vanilla comes from
a Beaver's but the more you, know, what.

Speaker 4 (01:06:19):
Why is that a THING i need to? Know ah ah.

Speaker 5 (01:06:26):
Ah who sends a text like this ants tastes like lemon.
DROPS i will take your word for. It chili powder
crickets In mexico is surprisingly. Tasty, again not going to
join you in that. Meal pigs are mentioned in The.

Speaker 4 (01:06:41):
Bible it's. Biblical. Oh the article THAT i was reading was.

Speaker 2 (01:06:46):
Not at all.

Speaker 4 (01:06:47):
Challenging that it was in The. Bible that was part
of the larger.

Speaker 5 (01:06:50):
Story it was just really the history of how pigs
have been treated or excluded by various. Religions this texture
has a very good, idea, uh really good. Idea let
me see. Here where did it? GO a lot of
you apparently love the cucumber lime. Gatorade who?

Speaker 4 (01:07:07):
Knew who?

Speaker 7 (01:07:09):
Knew?

Speaker 4 (01:07:10):
Diagnavit where did that text message?

Speaker 8 (01:07:12):
Go?

Speaker 4 (01:07:12):
Now it was in a text.

Speaker 5 (01:07:13):
Message that essentially, said, hey that the cultures that came
out of the. Desert pigs require a lot of, water
so anything that competed with them for water was.

Speaker 4 (01:07:25):
Verboten AND i was, Like, okay that makes sense.

Speaker 5 (01:07:27):
Too this person knows that thirteen of one hundred people
are allergic to the exoskeleton on.

Speaker 4 (01:07:33):
Bugs they cannot digest. It so what happens in that?
Case do you just kinda you, know does it just
come out the other end, intact all.

Speaker 5 (01:07:44):
Crunchy that's got to feel, amazing, Jeez, Luis, oh here
it is from, guns, germs and.

Speaker 4 (01:07:50):
Steel desert cultures.

Speaker 5 (01:07:52):
Banned pork because pigs competed with humans for. Water take
what you want from, That. Mandy you should read the
ingredients list on Treito mexican. Sausage number one ingredient is
pork or beef salivary glands.

Speaker 4 (01:08:06):
That'll make your mouth. Water i'm gonna go home.

Speaker 5 (01:08:08):
And look at The polydori charito THAT i have in
my freezer right. Now but theirs isn't made with pork
or beef salavary. Glands it's weird dog pos smell Like.

Speaker 4 (01:08:21):
Freeto's everybody knows that. Texture. EVERYONE i have been clear
about that.

Speaker 5 (01:08:27):
Now also on the blog, today AND i want to
talk about this a little bit more after the break
BECAUSE i think this is so.

Speaker 4 (01:08:34):
Good so my daughter is.

Speaker 5 (01:08:36):
A high schooler In Douglas County schools and she's a
relatively decent eater in the sense, that like if we're
in a, place a restaurant or where someone's, house you
know she's gonna eat what's.

Speaker 4 (01:08:48):
Served she's not one of those kids that's, like, NO
i can't eat. That she, says her high school lunches.

Speaker 5 (01:08:54):
Are let me, think disgusting is the, word and then
inedible is the other.

Speaker 4 (01:08:59):
Word And.

Speaker 5 (01:09:01):
I've never eaten a school lunch at her high, school
SO i cannot verify that they are disgusting and an.
Edible BUT i do know that school lunches have evolved
considerably from the TIME i was in school and to
where they are. Now there's a lot of pre made
food already made when it comes to the. School there's,
pizza there's junk, food and the school districts have entered

(01:09:23):
into agreements with places Like Pizza hut And dominoes because
it's a profit center for. Them right, now they're still
offering school, lunches but they are according to my daughter
disgusting and an.

Speaker 4 (01:09:34):
Edible SO i have a story here.

Speaker 5 (01:09:36):
About Denver public, schools and it's rare THAT i have
a chance to Praise Denver public, schools So i'm jumping
on it WHEN i.

Speaker 3 (01:09:41):
Can.

Speaker 5 (01:09:42):
Right, so they have started a program At George Washington
High school that is working to overhaul school, lunches and
they have a garden program where kids actually grow the,
herbs the, vegetables and then they use them in the
cafeteria so kids cannot only learn about how to plant

(01:10:02):
and grow, food which is. Amazing studies have shown the
kids are far more likely to eat vegetables that they helped. Grow,
okay it's just, kids you, know you hear look what you.
Did now we're gonna eat. It you grew, it now
we're gonna eat. It AND i love this and it
got me to, thinking like WHEN i was a, kid
we had the lunch ladies and they didn't just come
out and sort of throw out prepackaged. Foods they actually

(01:10:23):
cooked from scratch every single. Day they cooked everything from
scratch every single.

Speaker 4 (01:10:30):
Day AND i look back AND i think about. That
it's kind of.

Speaker 5 (01:10:33):
Amazing, ay, runs did you have school lunch when you
were a, kid which was that a thing some. Districts
like WHEN i was In catholic, school we didn't have
school provided. Lunch we had to take our, own of
course we. Did so what was your favorite what was
your favorite favorite school lunch?

Speaker 4 (01:10:45):
Item oh most of them weren't very.

Speaker 5 (01:10:48):
Good oh my, gosh our school lunches Were some of
them were. Amazing square. Pizza did you guys have The square?

Speaker 4 (01:10:53):
Pizza hush? Good square pizza was right at the.

Speaker 2 (01:10:57):
Top for.

Speaker 4 (01:10:57):
Me On Square Pizza, DAY i was, LIKE i am eating.

Speaker 6 (01:10:59):
In the burgers were, good they were in that typical,
wrap and, like how the cart ready to?

Speaker 4 (01:11:04):
Go you, know a chicken. SANDWICH i remember being we.

Speaker 5 (01:11:07):
Never we never had like my my in high, school
we had a salad, bar WHICH i, loved and then
we had a burger and fries, line and then we
had school lunch. Line and in addition to the square,
pizza which really was the best school, lunch they had
this like brown neat gravy that was served over mashed.
Potatoes oh my, GOSH i can smell it right, now

(01:11:28):
and you get one of those big rolls on the.
Side it was so SO goodt, say don't even have
That they don't even have the opportunity to talk about
how it looks like vomit before they eat, it because
it's so. Good what's your favorite school? Lunch?

Speaker 4 (01:11:43):
Five, six, six, nine oh back after.

Speaker 1 (01:11:45):

Sports so before the, BREAK i was talking about How
George Washington high At Denver Public schools has been trying
to update and make their cafeteria. Better they have A
greenhouse committee that supports this new food initiative by growing
fresh vegetables and herbs for the school.

Speaker 4 (01:12:36):
Kitchen and it's.

Speaker 5 (01:12:37):
Working school lunch attendance has surged At George Washington high
from about one hundred students per day to approximately four.
Hundred students have the option to leave campus for lunch
if they. Want AND i love this, idea SO i
THOUGHT i would ask and somebody sent a text in
its long since rolled through that basically, said when did

(01:12:58):
you go to school in the? Thirties they made everything from.
Scratch i'm telling you our lunch lady's. Rocked and maybe
it's from being born in The. SOUTH i don't, know
BUT i was in school in the seventies and. Eighties thank.
You i'm not that, Old, gow but you guys are
lighting up the text line right, now and overwhelmingly it

(01:13:19):
is not even. Close the number one school lunch that
you people almost all love is the chili and cinnamon roll.
Combination who would have thought to put those together except
for some drunk school lunch lady a long time.

Speaker 4 (01:13:35):
Ago but they were.

Speaker 5 (01:13:37):
MAGICAL a lot of you weighing in on, Dessert, mandy
the Dessert Apple betty was my favorite school lunch. FOOD

poured over free to lay chips and shredded cheddar cheese on.
Top that sounds, Delicious absolutely, Delicious. MANDY i brought my

(01:14:02):
lunch to school on the days they serve corn. BREAD
i always brought home a lunch box. Full none of
the other kids liked, it you, know swapping lunch. Food
that's a ritual THAT i realized with food allergies and
anaphylactic shock, situations has now gotten frowned. Upon BUT i
think by middle school when kids who have food allergies

(01:14:22):
know that they have a food. ALLERGY i, mean my
daughter has migraine, triggers and when she was, younger she
would tell people flat, Out she's, like, NO i.

Speaker 4 (01:14:31):
Can't do chocolate gives me a migraine from the time
she was pretty.

Speaker 5 (01:14:35):

florida AND i used to ask the lunch ladies for
their recipes to give to my. MOTHER i remember those
lunches being. FANTASTIC i don't know who you, are Sir,
madam BUT i grew up right down the street From Summer's.
ELEMENTARY i went To Epiphany Catholic school, though because my
mom was one of the Ten catholics In Lake.

Speaker 4 (01:15:26):
City very.

Speaker 5 (01:15:27):
Interesting send me an. Email mac expensive and sometimes.

Speaker 4 (01:15:32):
Hard to find foods kids will.

Speaker 5 (01:15:34):
Eat they throw out a lot because they play and,
talk not much eating going. On plus the snack craze
in schools right before. Lunch never had the snack thing
when my kids were. Younger i'm just gonna say, this
AND i have not done a perfect. Job LIKE i,
said my daughter is one of those people like she
knows what she, likes but she'll try and, eat you,
know pretty much.

Speaker 4 (01:15:54):
Anything but the reality is is that when you go To,
europe there are no kids.

Speaker 5 (01:15:59):
Menus there's no kids menu where it's just chicken fingers
and hamburgers and macaroni and cheese just for. Kids you,
know where the kids, eat they eat the same food
as their parents. Eat if they're really, little they're just
eating off mom and dad's. Plate if they're a little bit,
bigger they're ordering off the same menu that the adults
ort are off. Of and guess, what they don't have

(01:16:20):
a bunch of fat, kids and they.

Speaker 4 (01:16:22):
Have kids that eat. Everything this, catering this notion that
we should cater to the.

Speaker 5 (01:16:30):
You, know whims of a three to five year old
when it comes to. Food and here's the. Thing people are,
Like oh my, GOSH i mean lunch and it was,
nutritious and my son or daughter didn't. EAT i have
to figure something else. Out, no you can let your
son or daughter be hungry until dinner. TIME i realize
that this sounds like, abuse but catering to the nutritional
desires of little children is just. Stupid we've let the

(01:16:54):
inmates run the asylum in that. Way Grade, school nineteen sixty.

Okay you take a bunch of, bananas like six or,
eight and you lay them in your in the bottom
of your. Crockpot three of them in the bottom of your.
Crockpot then you take a pork. SHOULDER i like bone

Speaker 4 (01:20:15):
You rub it all. OVER i stab it with my
with my carving.

Speaker 5 (01:20:20):
TONGS i stab a bunch of holes in, it and
THEN i rub it all over with kosher salt and liquid.
SMOKE i put it in the slow. COOKER i put
four bananas on top of. It by the, way do
not peel the, bananas so just four hole, Bananas take
the stickers, off put the four bananas on, top.

Speaker 4 (01:20:35):
Put it on your slow, cooker run it for about eight.

Speaker 5 (01:20:37):
Hours remove the bananas and oh my, goodness don't drain the.

Speaker 4 (01:20:42):
Water just shred the. Meat it is nectar of the,
gods so good for.

Speaker 5 (01:20:47):
Ingredients you're welcome a lot of questions about there was
no koalua in that. Recipe, manny it's not that. Khalua
it's khalua pork ka, lua and It's hawaiian. Pork the
term kalua In hawaiian actually means cooked. Underground and normally In,
hawaii they'll take a whole pig and they'll take a

(01:21:09):
pit in the in the you, know in the.

Speaker 4 (01:21:10):
Ground they line it with heated.

Speaker 5 (01:21:12):
Rocks they then wrap the pig in banana, leaves and
then they cover the pig and the banana leaves and
everything with.

Speaker 4 (01:21:21):
Dirt so the pig cooks on.

Speaker 5 (01:21:23):
These heated rocks very, slowly and it almost, steams and
everything is kind of sealed. In and then after like eight,
hours they uncover the pig and then they serve it.

Speaker 4 (01:21:32):
And that's khalua.

Speaker 5 (01:21:33):
Pig, well obviously not everybody has a pigpit or an.
Emu that's what they're called an emu in their. Backyard
so mine is a cheater. Recipe the. Bananas and for
the lady who said how many BANANAS i, use anywhere
between six and eight, Total i'll put three on the
bottom of the slow cooker fully like in their peels and.
Everything and then you take your pork shoulder THAT i,

(01:21:56):
mean you, know eight to nine pounds or.

Speaker 4 (01:21:58):
Whatever you rub it all.

Speaker 5 (01:21:59):
Over after oaken holes in it with liquid, smoke and,
gosh weare gloves as you do, this because you will
smell like liquid smoke for the rest of your. Life
liquid smoke and kosher. Salt really coat.

Speaker 4 (01:22:09):
It don't be afraid to hold back on the.

Speaker 5 (01:22:11):
Salt and then put like four three to four bananas
depending on how big the pork roast is in their,
peels on top of, it and then put the lid,
on cook it for like eight hours in a slow,
cooker and then take the bananas, out shred the, pork
and you your mind will be blown how good that.

Speaker 4 (01:22:27):
Is and when you have to feed a lot of.

Speaker 5 (01:22:28):
People that is such a thrifty way to do it
because you can get a big, old big, old uh you,
know big old pork roast for a very inexpensive. Price
great way to feed a lot of, people and you
can just serve it with a wine rules or. Whatever
it's just it's. Fantastic what liquid is used in the.
Crockpot you don't need Any no liquid is. Needed you

(01:22:51):
put the pork roast on the bananas and let it. Cook,
now by the, way the bananas will be totally black
at the end of this cooking process and they're complete
lost any structural, integrity so you kind of scoop them
out and they're, like, OH i used to be a,
banana but they're not. Anymore and it just imparts this
a little bit of banana. Flavor AND i don't like
banana at. ALL i don't like the, TEXTURE i don't

(01:23:12):
like the.

Speaker 4 (01:23:12):
Flavor do not like. Banana but this gives like a
tiny bit of sweetness to the. Pork it is so.

Speaker 5 (01:23:17):
Good And mandy we all wanted alcohol in the. RECIPE i,
mean you can put some alcohol in there if you want,
to but you, know, yes cook on low for eight.
Hours so that is a thing that you can do,
now so, yes.

Speaker 4 (01:23:32):
And do it over the. Weekend let me. Know let me,
know because it. Is it is absolutely.

Speaker 5 (01:23:38):
Delicious, mandy do you have an update on THE lgbtq right?
SPILL i think what you meant to say is do

BREAK i?

Speaker 5 (01:24:22):
DO i do want you to go watch the video
Of shaquille O'Neal proving that celebrities are just like, us only.
Unfortunately shaquille O'Neill was in the middle of a live
segment on TNT or on THE nba ON tnt when
he realized that nature was calling and he had to,

(01:24:42):
respond and he literally just gets up and walks off the.
Set and the way he walks off the, set, well
we've all been, there we've all done, it but most
of us haven't done it ON. Tv, mandy going back
to when you were talking about hobbies the other, day
you should start a YouTube cooking.

Speaker 4 (01:25:01):
CHANNEL i want to do this so.

Speaker 5 (01:25:03):
Bad and here's the, Thing, LIKE i have wanted to
work with some kind of grosser or market for years
WHERE i could go get their daily you, know their weekly,
specials AND i could make something out of their weekly.
SPECIALS i just think that would be the best partnership
in the. World so if you know of a market
or grocer that you think would be a good, fit
let me, know BECAUSE i think it'd be amazing BECAUSE
i do love to. Cook love the show, Today, mandy

(01:25:25):
been feeling down and needed some light at lighthearted.

Speaker 4 (01:25:28):
Happiness. Uh you can't watch the inside of a. Banana
you don't have. To you're not, no you're missing the.

Speaker 5 (01:25:35):
Point the inside of the banana doesn't get seen until
the very end when you pick it, up and it's so.
Squishy it just, uses but it's not in your. Food
at that, Point i'm telling you try.

Speaker 4 (01:25:45):
It you are going to be so. Sold you will
be so.

Speaker 5 (01:25:49):
Sold, anyway moving, on there's also a video about fund With,
Rya Race markers and the preview Of, thunderbolts WHICH i
am super excited about. This AND i know That Black
widow is not one of your Top marvel, movies BUT
i freaking loved. IT i just watched it again the other,
day still love. It i'm super excited about this, movie

(01:26:10):
extremely very excited About, thunderbolts and so far the reviews are.
Stellar it's supposed to be real.

Speaker 2 (01:26:18):
Dark Really oh, yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:26:19):
Well that's kind of WHAT i liked About Black. Widow
it wasn't just superhero. Stuff it was about emotional relationships.

Speaker 4 (01:26:25):
AND i liked. It, Yeah i'm very. Thrilled we'll be back.

Speaker 5 (01:26:28):
With a bunch of other stuff after. This keep it
ON koa bad news for The Denver Juneteenth Music. Festival
this year's festival has already been scaled back to one, Day,
Sunday june, fifteenth and they're having a tremendously hard time
coming up with. Sponsors they said a lot of companies
have pulled back their, sponsorships you, know afraid of being

(01:26:52):
accused OF dei by. Someone the company that puts us
on state in a press, release the decision to scale
back follows the loss of several long time sponsors amid
shifting corporate priorities and a changing philanthropic. Landscape so they
need to raise eighty thousand dollars to ensure that The
Juneteenth Music festival.

Speaker 4 (01:27:13):
Continues.

Speaker 5 (01:27:14):
Now When juneteenth first became a, HOLIDAY i. Laughed it
was like, this this is just, Silly why are we doing?
This but the MORE i thought about, it the MORE
i think about, it the MORE i mull it over
in my. Head juneteenth should be a holiday that we
all celebrate, equally because it is the day that truly,

(01:27:36):
commemorates in, itself commemorates the true end of, slavery when
slaves In texas were finally told that The Civil war
had come to an end and they had been. Emancipated
and that is such a victory for The United states Of. America,
yes it is a tremendous victory for black, PEOPLE i get,
It but it's a tremendous victory for The United states
Of america because we fought against ourselves to end the

(01:27:59):
scourge of, slaves.

Speaker 4 (01:28:00):
And that's just.

Speaker 5 (01:28:01):
Impressive and SO i wish that conservatives would step up
and donate money to help this music festival, continue because
this is a holiday that should be universal and universally,
praised because how often you get to celebrate something like.
That and we spend so much time talking about the

(01:28:21):
horrors of, slavery, rightfully so we don't want to forget
how horrible that situation. Was we talk about the long
lasting impact of slavery on black people in this, country
but what we don't talk about is the fact that
we eliminated. It we decided in The United states Of
america that there was not going to be ownership of human,

(01:28:45):
beings and we fought a war where hundreds of thousands
of men, died often fighting against people they had lived
very near to for much of their, lives to end.
IT i think that's a big cause for, celebration and
LIKE i, SAID i hope that maybe some conservative organizations
would step up and, say you know, what we're going
to help you out with. This we're going to donate

(01:29:05):
money to help this go because it's an important thing to.
Note let's celebrate the end as much as we talk
about the horrors of the actual being of. SLAVERY a
couple of stories THAT i think are kind of. Interesting
one of them is that Musician Jelly, roll who has

(01:29:26):
been very open about his history of criminality and addiction
and also his message of hope and. Redemption he is
now possibly on the cusp of being pardoned for his
crimes In. Tennessee now why would this matter in the
grand scheme of. Things he's wildly. Successful he's probably made

(01:29:47):
more money at this point than he could possibly, imagine
and there's no sign of his career flagging in any,
way shape or.

Speaker 4 (01:29:54):
Form at the same, time.

Speaker 5 (01:29:56):
This dude who was, massively massively, fat my, hairdresser who
struggled with his weight for many.

Speaker 4 (01:30:04):
Years he calls it.

Speaker 5 (01:30:05):
Circus, fat and he says it about. Himself But Jelly,
roll with circus, fat he has now taken control of his.
HEALTH i think he's. DOWN i know he's down at
least one hundred. POUNDS i think he's got to be
down more than. That so he's really become this very inspirational.
Figure he may not look like it when you look at.
Him he's got face, tattoos which to me always smack
of bad decision.

Speaker 4 (01:30:25):
Making but he's owned his bad.

Speaker 5 (01:30:27):
Decision making and in order to travel internationally to perform
he cannot have convictions like he has on his. Records
so he just appeared along with other, people in front
of The Tennessee board Of parole and they have recommended
a pardon for him so he can continue to travel
and spread the word of hope and redemption and recovery

(01:30:49):
from addiction and, criminality which is incredibly positive, story especially
when you're hearing it from someone who has lived through.

Speaker 4 (01:30:56):
That so fingers crossed for. Him He pardons can be
really really. Cool SOMETIMES i.

Speaker 5 (01:31:02):
Would, love, love love for someone to pardon the soldier
who was screwed over by THE Us. Army he served
honorably multiple combat, tours came back to The, states made a,
terrible terrible, decision fired a firearm into a crowd and
shot a. Woman she, survived but that's cold. Comfort he, did,

(01:31:23):
however do his, time just Like Jelly roll served his.
Time but because he has that vilainy, conviction he's about
to be deported after The United States army promised they
would help him get citizenship if he, served and he
did honorably by all. Accounts Governor Jerry poulis could pardon this.
MAN i don't know if that would save him from,
deportation but it certainly would make a case that he

(01:31:48):
deserves the second. Chance AND i don't know IF i
would say this had he not already served his full
term for the crime he. Committed so if anybody knows the,
governor maybe have a look at, that BECAUSE i, mean
he doesn't take my face interesting story about, Psychedelics AND
i want to be clear about. This the story That
i'm about to tell you is not me suggesting that

(01:32:08):
you run out into a cow pasture and find some.
Mushrooms do those kind of mushrooms even grow in?

Speaker 4 (01:32:13):
Cowpoop? Here google this for, me a.

Speaker 5 (01:32:16):
Rod do psilocybin mushrooms grow In? Colorado because let me
tell you, something In, florida where it's, humid they grow.
EVERYWHERE i don't. KNOW i MEAN i read about that
on The. Internet that's HOW i know. That as far
as you, know do they grow In? Colorado in any,

(01:32:37):
Case now that psilocybin is legal, here more and more
people are turning to things like microdosing and things of that.

Speaker 4 (01:32:44):
Nature and you may think that's kind of.

Speaker 5 (01:32:46):
Crazy but a new, study and granted it was a
new study on mice showed that a single dose of
a psychedelic compound could be key to helping your brain
become more adaptable for. Weeks, now what is brain adaptability?

Speaker 4 (01:33:00):
Mean why is it?

Speaker 5 (01:33:01):
Important brain adaptability is what you do when you when
you're when you're, learning, right it means that your brain
can just absorb new. Information and after giving these mice
one dose of a serotonin activating psychedelic they showed remarkable
improvements in mental flexibility two to three weeks.

Speaker 4 (01:33:22):
Later, now why is this? Important because the theory is
is that if you can.

Speaker 5 (01:33:28):
Make the brain more, adaptable you can perhaps address some
significant conditions that are otherwise treatment and, resistant like, DEPRESSION
ptsd or Even alzheimer's.

Speaker 4 (01:33:39):
Disease, NOW i.

Speaker 5 (01:33:40):
Don't suggest that you go, and you, know microdose your
grandpa With alzheimer's. DISEASE i can really imagine how terrifying
that would. Be but it could lead to other things
that we could do to treat these. Conditions and it's
just very. Interesting the entire, gosh the entire spectrum of

(01:34:01):
things that we're investigating now that we haven't investigated. Previously
is fascinating to me because we really don't understand how
the brain. WORKS i, mean we understand the, basics electrical,
impulses all of that, stuff, like we get, that but
there are so many parts of the brain that are
just foreign to us that we really have no understanding.
Of brain plasticity is one of those things that we

(01:34:23):
truly don't. Understand and brain plasticity is the thing that
determines whether or not people are able to recover well
from a. Stroke if your brain can't rewire those, functions
then it's really difficult to recover from a.

Speaker 4 (01:34:37):
Stroke but the reality is is our brains are highly.
Adaptable you.

Speaker 5 (01:34:42):
Know i've talked about my daughter's challenging, birth and in that,
birth she suffered significant brain trauma is what they call,
it and so on AN mri there's a big patch
of a brain that had no electrical activity. Whatsoever and
it was. Horrifying it was, terrible it was. Awful it
was the worst day of my. Life see those.

Speaker 4 (01:35:00):
MRIs i will never in my entire life get over.

Speaker 5 (01:35:03):
That but the next, day the pediatric guy calls from
the nick que and, says, HEY i just want to
make sure you understood what we talked about. Yesterday AND i,
said you have no idea what her prognosis is going to.
Be and he, said very. Good he, said, honestly we
don't know anything about baby brain. Plasticity but he told
me a story of a little boy that.

Speaker 4 (01:35:23):
Had been his.

Speaker 5 (01:35:23):
Patient this guy's was a pediatrician who would do rotations
in the nick. Queue so he said he had a
patient that he'd had the kid's whole. Life he'd been
a patient of this. Doctor perfectly normal kid out there
playing The Little. League he has a collision with another.
Player they knock, heads so his mom brings him in
to check him for a. Concussion so this, doctor Doctor William,
lewis the guy's name is In Fort. Myers i'm assuming

(01:35:45):
he's still. There it was just he was an amazing.
Doctor i'll never forget his name. Either so Doctor luke,
said here comes this fifth grade kid and they start
to DO i don't know if they just did AN
x ray or what they, did but they found out
that the kid only had half of a function. Brain
AND i don't know if it was the left lobe
or the right. Lobe only one was fully operational and

(01:36:07):
they never knew because this kid had for older. Brothers
so the mom just raised the baby like she raised everybody,
else and he just came. Along so Doctor lu, said,
look we have no idea how that kid is walking
and talking and successful in school as he, is but
here he, is so obviously there are things about the
brain we don't. Know so the reason the psychedelic study

(01:36:27):
of this stuff is just is super. Fascinating but, Again
i'm not recommending you go out and you, know.

Speaker 4 (01:36:33):
Dose yourself in order to improve.

Speaker 5 (01:36:35):
Performance but this is a very interesting field of study
THAT i, think especially for things LIKE ptsd and For
alzheimer's disease and things like, THAT i want to see
people thinking outside the.

Speaker 4 (01:36:47):
BOX i want to see people pushing the boundaries.

Speaker 5 (01:36:51):
Because if we can help people live without post traumatic,
stress then we can help people.

Speaker 4 (01:36:56):
Live So i'm all for. It let's just keep invent.

Speaker 5 (01:37:00):
Mistigating AND i have a really really interesting story today
about Why TikTok is as dangerous as it is right
now On TikTok And arod was talking about this to
me last. Week last week when the tariffs kicked, In
TikTok was a flame With chinese people In english pitching

(01:37:21):
To american consumers direct to consumer purchases for clothes that
they said the luxury brands paid tiny fractions of money
to resell in The United states Of. America almost, instantly
a direct to consumer shopping app from these vendors became
the number one downloaded app at apples App store almost.

Speaker 4 (01:37:44):
Instantly now why does this?

Speaker 5 (01:37:46):
Matter because is this part of The chinese government's attempts
to separate us from our, lives our capitalist, society our.
Government our government's putting tariffs on, things making them more.
Expensive china's doing direct to. Consumer let us help. You
you don't have to pay one hundred dollars At. Lululemon
we make Those lululemon pants right here in our. Factory

(01:38:08):
we'll just leave label up and send them to you
for ten. Bucks it is incredibly. Destructive nobody talks about
it on these, videos by the, way about the slave
labor that's used to make so much stuff In. China
nobody talks about, that but it is having a, huge huge.
Impact they also pointed out out in this article a

(01:38:31):
couple of.

Speaker 4 (01:38:31):
Things let me read. This china is starting to do this.

Speaker 5 (01:38:34):
Thing this same thing in the economic war with The United,
states and they're Targeting america's. Youth for, Example TikTok's blackout
challenge encourages the apps young users to asphyxiate themselves until
they lose, consciousness which led to the death of a
thirteen year Old california boy In february of this. Year
CAN i just say one thing about The blackout.

Speaker 4 (01:38:56):
Challenge one of.

Speaker 5 (01:38:57):
My longest and dearest friends lost her fourteen year old
son to this idiotic quote game like twenty years. Ago
the same trash is now being fed to our kids On,
TikTok and it's leading to. Death serious injuries have resulted
from the School breaker, challenge where kids prank each other

(01:39:17):
by kicking their legs out from under them as they jump.
Curiously they, Say chinese teens habits to come to the
same contest because you know what they see on their.

Speaker 4 (01:39:26):
TikTok they have a math problem challenge because.

Speaker 5 (01:39:30):
Their TikTok isn't full of the same trash that they
are feeding our kids on our. TikTok so IT'S i
mean we are willingly giving our country over To china.
Willingly china's guerrilla strategy is, clear says this. Column they

(01:39:51):
want us to consumers to question who is the, enemy
the ones selling you affordable clothing or the ones increasing
your cost of. LIVING i, mean it's really kind of
genius that is on the blog. Today and one last
story THAT i want to get to you real, quick
sixty minutes is going to get a new executive. Producer

(01:40:13):
long time executive Producer Bill owens has stepped, down and
he's the only third leader in sixty minutes, history but
he is stepping down after coming up against The trump
administration and their lawsuit about The Kamala harris interview and
the way it was. Edited, NOW i don't necessarily think

(01:40:35):
that that lawsuit has a leg to stand.

Speaker 4 (01:40:37):
ON i really.

Speaker 5 (01:40:38):
Don't but the fact That trump has now Scouped Bill,
owens a guy, who by the, way was in charge
when Sixty minutes chose to run a story With Dan
rather based on obviously fake documents that Brought Dan rather.
Down but this guy managed to, stay and he managed
to stay until. Yesterday it'll be interesting to see what

(01:41:00):
happens in Sixty. MINUTES i got to tell you the
last Sixty minutes INTERVIEW i saw Was Leslie stall talking
to one of the released, hostages and when he, said,
yeah they starved, me she was, like, well maybe they
just didn't have any, food and he's, like, no they
ate in front of, me they had.

Speaker 4 (01:41:18):
Food maybe Maybe hamas is just.

Speaker 5 (01:41:22):
MISUNDERSTOOD i have long loved sixty minutes AND i still
watch it on, occasion but more likely to catch a
segment on YouTube THAN i am to watch the whole.
Show it's, just you, know the way they do things
can be frustrating for people on my side of the.

Speaker 4 (01:41:40):
Aisle but they may change maybe.

Speaker 11 (01:41:42):
Not you never.

Speaker 5 (01:41:42):
Know they could Replace Bill owens with someone even. WORSE
i mean that that possibility always, exists but the way
the media is now, anyway.
