Get ready for an outstanding entertainment program.
The Jimmy Dore Show.
Okay, so I got Bill O'Reilly on the line.
Joining us, it's Fox News hosts, our favorite Fox News personality.
It's the one and only.
It's Bill O'Reilly.
Bill, are you there?
That's an insult, Jimmy.
A goddamn insult.
What is an insult, Bill?
What are you talking about?
Describing me as a, quote, Fox News personality.
I am so much more than that.
I'm a commentator, a prognosticator, an unequivocator, and when I'm chatting about falafels, a chronic masturbator.
Bill, you are willing to describe yourself as a masturbator?
Really?
The best there is, goddammit.
The best there ever was.
Well, to be clear, all the charges against me were dropped after I paid my accuser millions of dollars, so I was completely exonerated.
Bill, I'm surprised that you are the one dredging up this old news right now.
That's kind of weird.
Well, Jimmy, it's Fox News's 18th anniversary.
And I'm in a nostalgic business milestone.
It's inspired me.
Really?
To take a moment to quietly reflect and look back at the many times I've ejaculated into a sock while talking to a female underling on the phone.
Okay, Bill.
So this is an older, wiser, and more mature Bill O'Reilly that I'm talking to right now.
Don't make me out to be some over the hill old timer, Door.
I'm very much of the moment with new and exciting ideas.
Like, for instance, my idea that America should hire an army of mercenary soldiers of fortune.
What?
To fight ISIS in the Middle East?
Yes, Bill.
You've already floated that plan, and it's been roudly debunked already, okay?
Shut up, Dor.
Just shut up.
Can you hear me?
Yeah, I hear you.
I just told you to shut up.
Shut up.
Yeah, well, Bill, I'm not shutting up.
Aren't you responding to my call for you to shut up?
Bill, when you see.
I said, shut up.
Bill, I'm telling you.
Shut up.
But stop telling me.
Okay, now I'm going to give you the last word.
Okay.
All right.
I appreciate you giving me a last word.
What I want to say.
Shut up.
Now, Bill, stop it.
Shut up.
Bill, you're losing.
Shut the fuck up.
Bill.
Bill, you're losing your cool air, buddy.
All right.
Not possible, Dor.
Never going to happen.
What?
Anyway, as I was about to say before you rudely interrupted me, I've moved on from my call to send a mercenary army to stop ISIS.
I've come up with a much more practical plan.
Yeah, what's that?
What's your practical plan?
Hire a mercenary army to stop Beyoncé.
What are you talking about, Bill?
What are you talking about?
She's a threat to our national security, Jimmy.
How?
Only a trained force of highly skilled and well-paid soldiers of fortune can stop her from spreading her left-wing agenda of funky propaganda.
Funky propaganda.
Bill, Bill, listen to me, buddy.
I really, really, I don't think.
That's right, Jimmy.
I used the term funky.
Yes, you did.
I know all the hit phrases the colored kids use.
I don't think so.
I ain't no jive turkey.
Oh, God.
Bill, right now you're being offensive on so many different levels.
Do you have any idea about that?
I know how to talk to the blacks.
No, you don't, Bill.
For instance, here's a cool, up-to-date urban thing I'd like to say to a homeboy.
Okay, go.
What is that?
Hey, Hoggy Bear.
What's the word on the street?
No.
Yeah.
Bill, I have to know exactly what do you mean?
What do you mean by funky propaganda?
Jimmy, let me break the word propaganda down for you.
Okay.
Prop is the thing Karatov uses to get more laughs in one minute than you've gotten in your entire miserable career.
And Uganda, I believe, is the African country Obama and Beyonce were born in.
That's propaganda.
Bill, I'm going to have to end this.
Thanks for joining us.
Congratulations on 14 years at the Fox News channel.
Congratulations.
That's right.
14 years, bitches.
I'm very proud.
It's the longest run of any TV channel in the history of broadcasting.
You know, actually, Bill, I'm checking my notes.
CNN has been around a decade and a half longer than that.
NBC CBS has been on TV since at least, I don't know, at least I'm going to go back to 1948.
Or let me explain something to you.
Okay.
Fox News has been on the air since 1996.
1996 is a much bigger number than 1948.
So therefore, Fox News has been on the air longer.
It's simple math.
Bill, you're just plain wrong about this, buddy.
Shut up, Pinhead.
Just shut up.
I'm just telling you, Bill.
Bill, I'm telling you.
Bill, you're wrong about this.
Shut the fuck up.
Bill O'Reilly, ladies and gentlemen.
Let's air it for Bill O'Reilly.
It's the Jimmy Dore Show.
The show for...
The kind of people that are.
Bill Bence may be on Tearing Down Our Nation.
It's the show that makes Anderson Cooper say.
It's hard to talk to you, TV.
And now, here's a guy who sounds a lot like me.
It's Jimmy Dore.
Hi, everybody.
Welcome to this week's show.
I'm joined on the phone from Mystery Science Theater 3000, and he's all the way from New York City.
It's TV's Frank Frank Connip.
Hi, Frank.
Hello there.
Hey, glad you could make it.
In the studio with me, we have special guests, hilarious comedian, my good buddy from Chicago.
It's Ted Lyde is with us.
Hey, Ted, how are you?
I'm happy to be here.
Thanks for having me.
Oh, I'm glad you could make it in.
Next to him, hilarious Japanese man, our resident Japanese guy thing.
It's Robert Yasamura.
Robert, how are you feeling?
I'm a little swollen.
I know you just came once in this dentist, right?
And you got a really sexy dentist.
That's why you're swollen.
Anyway, I'm a little complicated.
Across the thing, it's our resident Latina and the author of the blog, The Miserable Liberal.
And she took on her, the Glendale Unified Superintendent this week in her own classroom, which I give tip of the hat to Steph Zamorano.
Hey, Steph, how are you?
Jimmy, I encourage civil disobedience for you all.
Civil disobedience.
So let's remember, civil disobedience is not a burden.
It's not a bag of problems that we carry around in our sack.
It's a joyful way to express your life that you're doing something positive.
It's something that's life-affirming, and that's what life is all about.
So civil disobedience.
Thumbs up.
You know, Jimmy.
It's not very life-affirming until the authorities.
Until the authorities crack you in your head.
It turns out the superintendent wasn't really all that enthusiastic over civil disobedience.
That's amazing.
Okay, let's get to the jokes before we get to the jokes.
Hey, Leon Panetta wrote a book.
The former CIA director under Barack Obama wrote a book while Barack Obama's still in office that talks about what a bad president Barack Obama is.
And that shows you the character of Leon Panetta, right?
Fantastic, Leon.
And I agree with Leon, though, that Obama made some bad foreign policy mistakes, like, for instance, hiring Leon Panetta.
That would be big, big mistake number one.
Hey, by the way, Ebola, Ebola's in the news, Frank.
So now we got ISIS, just this week, ISIS, Ebola, and now Sex in the City 3.
The bad news just keeps getting worse.
It just keeps getting worse.
You know, so far, Ebola has been contained to the one Dallas hospital, but the outbreak of Benghazi remains quarantined in the Fox studios.
You know, I love hearing, I don't know about you guys, but I love hearing all the folks who are opposed to government spending and all the health care reform bitching that the government can't handle Ebola.
Yeah.
Isn't that ironic?
By the way, the outbreak of TV pundits discussing Ebola who don't know what the fuck they're talking about is reaching epidemic proportions.
Hey, by the way, RIP, RIP to the Texas Ebola patient.
In your brief time in America, you brought much-needed fear and hysteria to the cable news industry.
Thank you very much.
I just found this out.
Did you know that NBC wanted Jon Stewart to host Meet the Pressed, but then they remembered that they already had lots of fake journalists on their staff?
Am I right?
Am I right?
Hey, by the way, in other legal news, did you hear that there was a judge gave a ruling that said the Missouri, you know, the Ferguson cops wouldn't let the protesters stand still.
They had to keep moving.
Well, a judge just said you can't do that.
That's not in the Constitution.
They can protest peacefully because it's their civil rights.
But then the Ferguson police chief shot back.
He said, what about our rights of liberty and the pursuit of anyone who's black?
By the way, did you hear Michael Phelps?
Michael Phelps got caught, he got caught drunk driving.
He was doing, he was doing 82 and a 65, a new record, blue wall.
And so a new record.
Anyway, the team USA swimming, USA swimming officials, they suspended him for six months and banned him from the 2015 World Championships as a result of his DUI arrest.
Citing a lack of video of the incident, the Baltimore Ravens immediately signed on to play this Sunday.
The USA swimming coach cited the 29-year-old for violating its ready-for-it's code of conduct.
He said that Michael's conduct was serious and required significant consequences, never explaining why swimmers have a code of conduct in the first place.
Why would you have a code of we don't have a code of conduct for presidents in America?
We have a code of conduct.
It's unbelievable.
So, but Michael Phelps vowed in the future to engage in activities with less severe consequences, like crashing our economy and committing war crimes.
Tikas don't get those don't get punished in our economy.
That does in our country, but we punish, we're cracking down on swimmers who drink.
Oh, I'm so champions.
Finalists, yes.
He just won a bunch of medals at the Paytam game, by the way.
And they just pay him.
So, by the way, did you hear the North Carolina, they're still trying to suppress the black vote all over the country, right?
And the Supreme Court just upheld a North Carolina, a very restrictive North Carolina voting law just in time to keep democracy from entering the state before the midterms.
Also, a federal court ruled in favor of two Virginia voters who sued their state's general assembly alleging racial gerrymanding because what they did was they took all the blacks and put them in one congressional district so now they could have five or six white Congress congressional districts and just get all the blacks in the one.
So they sued.
They sued and the court agreed with them.
And so now they're going to have to redraw the electoral map there in Virginia to not do that anymore.
And the one Republican official lamented, now we are left with the nightmare of trying to convince people to vote for us based on our ideas.
That isn't it.
Is that racial gerrymandering or racial Jeremaine Jackson age?
Ha!
Here's a crazy, here's a crazy coinka dink.
San Francisco's pension consultants, Angelus Investment Advisors, is advising San Francisco to divert the city's pension from investments in vanilla stocks and bonds to a fancy hedge fund that charge much higher fees.
What?
What's the coinky dink?
Well, Angelus Investment Advisor also runs a hedge fund in the Cayman fucking islands.
That's today's coinky dink.
All right, what's coming up on today's show?
We're going to talk about cops out of control and how they deal with black men in our society.
We're also going to talk about the St. Louis Cardinal fans and their display of valor and good citizenship.
Hey, Congressman Duncan Hunter knows that ISIS is coming across the border and it even gets called out on Fox News.
Plus Ebola, Ebola, Ebola is scaring Elizabeth Hassel back.
We're going to check it out.
We got phone calls today from Mike in St. Louis calls in.
We got Ted Cruz calls in.
Plus Mike in St. Louis calls in twice.
We're going to be right back after this message.
That's today on the Jimmy Dore Show.

Okay, and today we're going to take an extended look at what I see a big problem in America is the policing culture, the out-of-control policing culture.
We haven't talked about it much on the show yet.
I mean, not as much as we should, or not as much that is warranted, but it seems to really have gotten out of control since 9-11.
And I have my multi-ethnic panel here to help me discuss the situation.
We have a Japanese man, we have a resident Latina, we have an African-American, and then we got two Irish guys.
Okay.
All right.
So that's pretty good.
Okay.
So now we're going to play a few videos.
I don't know if you saw this video.
So the cops are out of control in America.
We've talked about this from coast to coast.
There's a policing culture that sees the citizens as the enemy, and the cops are the occupying force.
You know, here in Los Angeles, cops don't live in Los Angeles who work at Los Angeles.
They all live out in the suburbs somewhere else and they come into the city to police it.
Like those people are there.
They need policing.
So in Chicago, they can't do that, by the way.
Where I'm from Chicago, you have to live in the city where you police.
At least that's a little bit better, right?
The way LA tries to incentivize their cops living here.
Like they give them incredibly low mortgages if they live within the city limits.
What they should do is pass a law that makes and make it a law that they have to live inside the city.
That's like what they did in Chicago.
Well, they should be on call.
They should be on call like doctors.
Doctors have to live within 20 minutes of their hospital.
Oh, they should be on call within their precincts.
I think you should have to live in the neighborhood you police.
I have no problem.
I think that just crazy that we have people because then you can't come in and beat people up and then drive home 40 miles away and you never see those people.
The people you're beating up, you're supposed to bump into them at the Starbucks and at the Ralphs and at the grocery store and at wherever you go at the Little League game, you're supposed to bump into the people you're policing.
You're supposed to be part of the community.
That's what I would like to see, right?
I think that would make a difference.
It'd make it a lot more reluctant to put your boot in my ass if you know I'm going to be walking my dog past your house later.
That's correct.
Exactly right.
Especially if your dog is maybe a Rottweiler or Pitbull or something like that.
So I'm watching this video.
So this is Officer Sean Grobert.
He was a Lance Corporal with the South Carolina Highway Patrol and he pulled over LeVar Jones, LeVar Jones, who is black and very young.
And you're going to hear him on the video.
He gets pulled over for not wearing a seatbelt.
White cop pulls him over for not wearing a seatbelt.
And they're in a gas station in this.
So he pulls into a gas station.
This kid pulls into a gas station and the cop, I'm going to show you the video.
This is what happens.
Have a license, please.
Get out of the car.
Get out of the car.
Get on the ground.
Okay, so now you just saw what happened, but you guys didn't see what happened.
What happened was the cop pulls him over.
The guy gets out of the car.
He goes like this.
He goes, show me your license.
So the kid goes, okay, turns around to get his license out of the car.
Cop immediately starts shooting.
Oh my God.
Start shooting.
Do you want to come over and see this video?
It's unbelievable.
Come on.
I'll show you this video.
It's unbelievable.
Okay.
Yeah, I've seen it.
I've seen it.
You saw the video, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's an example of just a cop who's just can't even find coward is not even the you know Barney Fife.
You know what I mean?
Exactly.
It's absolutely cowardice.
So you remember when I was a kid, we used to watch reruns of Andy Griffith and he had a deputy named Barney Fife, played by Don Knotts.
Brilliant.
Yeah.
And he gave him one bullet in his pocket.
And why do you think he gave Barney one bullet?
Because Barney was a little jumpy.
And a little bit of a little bit of a sweetheart, but a bit of a coward.
Bit of a coward, a little jumpy.
So you shouldn't have a gun.
This guy is Barney Five.
Here, I'm going to show it to Robert again.
Here you go.
Watch.
Watch this.
So he pulls in.
See, the guy gets out of the car.
Let me see your license, please.
He goes to get it.
Cops start shooting him.
He starts shooting him.
Oh, my God.
I didn't see a gun.
It gets worse.
It gets worse.
So you hear the kid going, I want to get my license.
You told me to get my license.
He's on the ground.
He is shocked.
He is shocked.
Shot him in the hip.
By the way, the cop shot like six times from two feet away, missed him five times.
Hit him in the twice.
So there's all those other people.
It's broad daylight at a gas station.
There's all these other people in the gas station.
This cop just starts shooting at a guy for no reason.
And all the kid did is turn around and reach into his car.
To get his license.
He didn't go, hey, step back.
So here, listen, watch.
It gets worse.
Put your hands behind your back.
Put your hands behind your back.
So then he tells me.
Please behind your back.
Put your hands behind your back.
And the kids go, I got my license right here.
What do you do?
He goes, put your hands behind your back.
That cop still would not stop being a horrible, horrible, horrible subhuman being.
Okay, that's it.
Unbelievable.
Didn't we?
You're forgetting one very important point.
The kid was not wearing a seatbelt.
He was not.
And then the kid asks him.
This doesn't change that.
Later in the video, the kid asked him, why'd you pull?
What's going on?
Why'd you even stop me?
He goes, because you didn't have your seatbelt on.
And the kid goes, I took my seatbelt on because I was pulling in the gas station.
Yeah.
And he goes, why'd you shoot me?
He never says why he shot.
Never would never.
No, he does.
He says you lunged into your car.
He does make a comment saying he said that the kid not lunged in the right word, but some word like lunged.
Let me play it.
Here, let me play it.
Oh, James, behind it.
What did I do, son?
He's still calling him sir.
I think so.
I can't tell my lunch.
I ain't no way up there.
I just got my lunch.
Why did you, why did you shoot me?
Well, you dove head first into your car.
You dove.
Headfirst into your car.
You dove head.
How do you, first of all, he turned around to get his lungs.
How do you go any other way but headfirst?
Right.
You dove headfirst.
Was he going to dive hip first?
Is he going to die knee first?
He didn't dive, by the way.
He turned around and reached into his car.
And if you're that jumpy, you should go get a job at a swimming pool.
You shouldn't be.
And if you don't have the balls to, if you don't have the balls to even wait to see what, you know, he doesn't even have the courage to wait and see what is he reaching for.
You don't have, if you don't have the balls to even let someone follow your command, then you don't deserve to be, you don't deserve to work at a dairy queen.
You don't deserve to work as a janitor.
It's a basic, basic Courage to just wait.
So when this guy signed up, they were like, are you jumpy?
When you see a black guy reaching for something, do you like to pull the trigger?
Right.
What form of training did this guy pass?
That's what I want to know.
What psychological exam did this guy pass?
By the way, they don't pass any.
Why do you want to be a cop?
Why do you want to carry a gun?
Why do you want to put yourself in dangerous situations?
And if you're so afraid of black people, then why are you stopping them over nothing?
Over a no seatbelt.
He stops you.
If you're that afraid, you're that afraid.
Then why are you being such a little douchebag?
If you don't stop them, they're harder to shoot.
I don't know why this is hard for you guys to understand.
Yeah, you dove into your car.
Really, sir?
I dove into my car.
Can I just point out that this kid was black, right?
Yes.
They were at a gas station.
And gas stations usually have lots of Skittles and iced tea.
Oh, it was a preemptive.
It was a preemptive shooting.
Yeah.
I didn't think of that.
It's away from buying candy and a beverage.
So the kid is so...
I can't even believe it.
So here is, yes, he's too painful to just say shot.
And he's saying, sir.
And that just emphasizes who the savage is in this scenario.
Yes.
So here, there's an here's what I'm going to.
And by the way, they shot him in the back.
That kid?
Yeah, he got hit in the head.
But like you're seeing him turn and they shoot him.
Like, yeah, and like the hip in the back area.
And he's, the cop is pivoting around so he's staying at his back while he's shooting.
Yes.
So I couldn't believe it.
The cop lied, by the way.
The cop said that the kid came at him and after he started shooting, the kid kept coming at him.
Well, you look at the video, the kids, Zach, he's got his hands up the whole time and he's backing up.
And the cop just kept shooting him.
And then even after he shoots him, he comes over and handcuffs him, even though he knows he doesn't have a gun.
He pulled him over for a seatbelt violation and he doesn't care.
Because again, this kid's the enemy.
He's not a citizen.
He didn't go, wow, I just screwed up.
What the hell's the matter with me?
Still, this kid is an enemy.
No matter if he didn't do anything, he's still the enemy.
The cop realizes that the kid didn't do anything.
He knows this now.
The kid's on the ground, so he doesn't freak out and go, oh my God, I'm sorry.
What he does is says, put your hands behind your back.
He doesn't try to help them.
He doesn't do anything.
It's the same mentality that a race, the racism, in this case, it's the same mentality that a rapist would have to its victim.
I'm not going to see you as a human.
I'm not going to acknowledge that what I'm doing is even remotely inappropriate.
Right.
You follow my commands or this is going to get worse.
No, we can play these videos.
Go ahead, Steph.
I just want to point out that this guy passed some sort of test.
This is what I'm talking about.
To be able to be a part of law enforcement.
And he has no problem going into a public place of business and start shooting.
And there are people at the pumps.
At the pumps.
That's what I said.
They're pumping gas.
This happens.
Who's going to intervene on behalf of this young man?
No one.
No one.
Okay, we got a lot more coming up on the second half about the out-of-control police culture.
But before we get to that, let's take a call from Ted Cruz.
Who was one of the few Republicans to come out fervently and loudly against the Supreme Court's decision to allow gay marriage in 30 different states?
Ted Cruz, what's your favorite, Jesus?
Senator Cruz Jr.
Oh, hi, Jimmy.
How are you?
I'm fine, Senator.
Did you just ask what's your favorite Jesus?
Sure.
Do you like the classic Jesus with the flowing brown hair and the knowing eyes?
Or do you like the baby Jesus, maybe?
Personally, I like the Jesus with a swimmer's body wearing below the clock.
Hey, so I understand you're upset about the Supreme Court's decision not to hear any gay marriage cases this year.
I am very angry, Jimmy.
I am so angry I almost took the Lord's name in vain and ate a cheesecake.
I'm sorry, Senator, but I just not seeing what's making you so upset here.
Jimmy, they're gay.
Gay, Jimmy.
Like bullies doing the sodomy with each other and the girls doing the dirty scissors.
That's not the issue.
Even if it was, the law can't regulate what consenting adults do in private.
It makes Jesus cry, Jimmy.
It makes him cry.
Can't you hear him, Jimmy?
He's like, hey, you muscular fireman, get away from that other fireman.
Don't take off one another's fire trousers.
Stand before each other and sin.
Go find some nice fire girls and have the intercourse with them instead.
Wow.
Senator, I don't think that's what...
Hey, you guy in sailors outfit.
Get away from the other guy in a sailor's outfit.
Sure, he's all sweaty.
You can smell his musk.
Jesus says, resist.
What are you talking about, Senator?
What are you talking about?
The law.
I mean, you know, marriages in the eyes of the law is not sacred.
It's just a contract.
And it's not like any of these court rulings are compelling churches to hold gay weddings.
You could not be more wrong, Jimmy.
When two people get a marriage license, Jesus comes to that county clerk's office and says, I will cause a hurricane if two dudes get a marriage license.
It doesn't happen, Senator.
I'm pretty sure it does, Jimmy.
No, it doesn't, Senator.
What about my marriage, huh, Jimmy?
I mean, if gay people can get married, it totally ruins my marriage to, you know, the woman I married.
How does gay marriage invalidate your marriage?
Let me put this in words you can understand.
Okay, Jimmy.
Please.
I used to love a good cognac, like cravati, ADS, O or better, okay?
Well, marriage, Jimmy, is like a fine brandy.
You follow me?
Sure.
But then all of a sudden, black people start drinking it.
And it just doesn't seem all that special anymore.
It was like, well, now I don't want to drink a black people's drink.
My point is, what if black people were allowed to get married?
Senator, what are you talking?
Black people can get married.
Me and Mike Lady are going to introduce a constitutional amendment that says states can define marriage how they want.
Yeah, I read about that too.
Well, there you go.
Senator, come on.
What?
Come on, Senator.
What?
Come on.
You and I both know that'll never happen.
Maybe I don't.
Just to propose an amendment.
You need two-thirds of both houses, and passing it is even harder.
Maybe it isn't.
Senator, pretty much everyone will see this for the political theater that it is.
I totally believe that Jesus will come down and pass this amendment or something.
Senator, you're just trying to keep the wedge issue alive with the Christian Wright for when you try to get the Republican nomination for president.
What are he talking about?
I don't, I mean, this is so sunny.
I should run for president.
I never thought of that.
Well, if you think it's a good idea.
Senator.
What?
I'm going to go.
What?
Why?
We were just talking about maybe me being president and stuff.
I really got to go.
Well, that's fine.
I've watched the phone calls coming in from senators who want to be my friends and allies.
No, you don't.
Shut up, Jimmy Door.
I hate you.
All right.
All right.
That was Ted Cruz, ladies and gentlemen.
I'm Robert and I'm from Burra.
I'm going to help this out.
That was such a great Ted Cruz call, and I love the Bill O'Reilly at the top.
And all the content you're bringing to me about the brutality of police in America today that I'm really not hearing anywhere else in an unvarnished version like this.
Every time you hear people talk about cops and the culture of policing today, they always, even L. Sharpton says, most cops are great.
How many more of these videotapes do you need to see?
Didn't you see Occupy Wall Street?
This is about a culture.
This isn't about a few bad apples.
Anyway, because you say, Jimmy, I want to support this kind of great stuff, this great comedy.

Okay, second half, a lot of great stuff coming up.
Let's get to it.
Okay, we're taking an extended look today at some of the recent videotapes that have surfaced around police brutality in America.
Seems like a hundred of these things surface every day now.
Seems like there's a problem with the culture.
And we're going to talk about a little bit more of it.
I'm joined by my African-American friend, Ted Lyde, because it's important to have a nice multicultural panel when we talk about police brutality.
And then we have Robert Yasimura.
He's Japanese.
His dad was in an internment camp.
And then our resident Latina, Steph Samorano.
So we have the Hispanioles.
We have the Japanese.
And we also have the Blacaniels.
All right.
So we've got them all.
And we got two Irish guys.
So we got everybody got everything covered and a couple of drunks.
All right.
So we're going to continue our conversation talking about the recent videotapes that have surfaced about police brutality.
Let's get back to the studio.
By the way, Mike from St. Louis.
Epic call coming up later on in the show.
So here's the next story because we can play these videos all day long.
This is just from the last week and a half, right?
These videos.
These are just from the last week and a half.
So here's another video.
This happened in Hammond, Indiana.
Lisa Mahoney was, or I don't know how you're hone, said she was pulled over by Hammond police for a seatbelt violation as she drove her boy with her boyfriend and their two children to a Chicago hospital where doctors had said her mother was near death.
She got pulled over.
She hands the driver's license and proof of insurance to the cops.
And then the cops asked her boyfriend for his ID.
Why do you got to have a passenger's ID?
I'm sure they have a reasonable.
So her boyfriend, this guy named Jones, he said he didn't have his ID because he just had gotten a ticket.
So he reached in the back seat because he wanted to show him the ticket he had in a bag in the back seat.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then the officers, when he did that, when he reached to get the ticket to show them, the cops pulled their gun on him, right?
They pulled their gun on him, right?
And their 14-year-old son and their seven-year-old daughter.
And then his teen began recording the encounter on the cell phone, right?
So his 14-year-old son started recording it.
And, well, here's what happened.
I'll play this for you.
So here we go.
Yes, my mom.
No, I'm not making it worse now.
I'm scared for my life.
Because he just pulled a gun on us and we didn't have.
We don't have a gun.
So now the cops pull the gun on these people in the car, and the guy won't get out of car.
He goes, No, he wants him to get out of the car.
He goes, I'm not getting out of the car, right?
And they want him to get out of the car.
And he's like, I'm not getting why you want.
So they wanted to take him out.
They just pulled their guns on his girlfriend and their kids.
And now they want him to get out of the car.
He's like, I'm not getting out of the car.
You haven't done anything.
So you can do what?
You just pull this over.
Now you're pulling your guns on us.
Here it goes.
Here it goes.
It's going to get way worse.
Go ahead.
I suggest you come on out.
So the cops say to him, I just want to let you know, you're on our dash cam.
I'm wearing body mics.
I suggest you get out of the car.
They say that to him.
They say that to him.
Yeah.
To the guy that they just pulled guns on during a traffic stop.
He's the passenger in the car.
You a white shirt?
What's that?
A white shirt.
I'm asking for a white shirt.
I don't know what's going on.
So he asked for a supervisor.
He goes, can you get a white shirt?
Meaning a supervisor.
I don't know what's going on here.
Give him my information.
I don't know what's going on.
Right.
Right.
That's what I'm saying.
Listen, listen.
That's what I'm trying to tell you.
Okay.
I don't know what's going on.
I never got out of the bill.
So he's talking.
He has the window open this month.
He's talking through the window to the cops.
He goes, I'm like, I never had to get out of a vehicle as a passenger in a traffic stop.
Get a supervisor here.
I gave it to him.
Okay.
Now he asked the man Y'all got white shirts here?
Just sitting beside me.
He asked him Y'all got somebody He didn't have any idea.
Well, I just gave him my information.
So he says, that's his lieutenant right there, the lieutenant.
He points to the other cop.
He goes, he's a lieutenant.
He goes, well, I just gave him my information.
Why you want me to get out of the car?
They ask him, you know, and I'll say that.
I just gave both of them my information.
Y'all got my information, right?
I don't have my lives.
I mean, if you're going to give me a ticket, for no seatbelt.
If you're going to give me a ticket for no seatbelt, right here.
They just give me a ticket so I can go to the hospital because the doctor called me to tell me to come in because my mom is about to pass away.
I cannot believe this.
All right.
So I guess he's in the button.
So he hands him the ticket.
He hands him the ticket.
He digs in his book bag.
They pull the gun out.
What was the purpose of a gun?
And now they asking us.
Now they're asking me to open my door so I could get out.
I'm scared.
If you can pull out a gun in front of you, there's two kids in the back.
Do you understand?
Yeah.
All right.
No, don't mess my.
Now they're about to mess my no.
Now they're about to mess my mom.
You do that.
All right.
I'm not.
I'm not.
I'm not the operation of this.
Are you going to open the door?
Why do you say somebody's not going to hurt you?
People are getting shot by the police.
Oh shit!
Damn!
Ah!
Ah!
Oh shit!
Try to growl.
That was crazy.
Horrible.
This is a hundred times.
Okay, so those are the kids crying in the back seat because they just broke the guy's windshield or his window, passenger window, and then the cop tased him.
Oh my God.
And they cop tased him and he fell out of the car.
And now they're going to handcuff him.
His kids are crying in the back seat.
And they're doing this for what?
No reason.
No reason.
Because they're cops.
They're bullies.
They're subhumans.
That's why they became cops.
And the reason that they're doing it.
This is why, and they're doing it because he's black and they're white and they can.
And the reason that they're doing it is that they want compliance.
They don't want reason.
They don't want you to acknowledge that you're a human or that you have constitutional rights.
They want you to be a good little nigger and obey.
They want you to pretend it's, you know, slavery times and we asked you, you know, for your papers, and you showed, and now you do what we say.
And that's what it boils down to.
If you don't obey us, now it's about a question of us having to go back to our station and be the cops who got punked by some nigger on video.
And that's what it boils down to.
It's literally like a gang mentality.
So they're going to have that footage.
Yeah, hey, it's Jones and Finn over here.
Hey, they couldn't get the nigga out of the car.
The nigga talked him down.
They couldn't get him out of the car.
You fucking pussies.
That's the mentality.
That is the mentality.
Go ahead, Frank.
Well, I don't.
This, I don't think, is only a recent phenomenon.
What's the recent phenomenon is just that it's on video now.
Yes.
So this is right.
In other words, I'm sure this has been going on for years and years.
Yeah, the black people that they stop and they shoot, they never get to tell their side of the story or nobody believes their side of the story.
So these incidents are only now coming to the fore because we have videos of them now.
And I've heard cops go on TV and defend this guy.
I've heard cops go on TV and say, yeah, he was in his rights as a cop.
He did, blah, blah, blah.
He wasn't complying.
When you come to a traffic stop and he asks you to get out and you don't, you go, yeah, and it's just like, this is the country you want to live in.
When I was a kid, this is what I thought Russia was like.
When I was a kid, this is what I thought that China and North Korea was like.
This is not what I thought the United States was like.
I thought that we had constitutional rights.
We're the most free country in the world.
But there's a police culture in this country.
It got way worse because of the drug war in the 80s, which was nothing more than racism.
And then after 9-11, it got put on steroids.
Now everybody's the enemy.
You know, can we stop talking that they're police?
They're no longer, you know, peace officers.
They're not peace officers.
They're not peace officers.
They're not of criminals who have no.
And if you want to kind of figure out why they're criminals, they have no problem brutalizing citizens.
Anybody.
And I don't say any of this lightly, by the way.
I'm just telling you again, I know cops.
I know them.
Some of them are nice.
Some of them I hang out with.
They're nice people.
They're not nice when they're cops.
They become cops to be brutal.
That's why they're cops.
You can't say anybody.
I mean, I'm sure that they, you know, white guys get beat up too.
Yes, I've been tased up by cops.
If Reese Witherspoon gets pulled over with Jerry Seinfeld in the car and Jerry doesn't want to get out of the car because he doesn't feel like he has done anything wrong as a passenger.
You don't think they're going to tase him?
I don't think they're going to knock his window in and tase him.
With his kids in the back seat?
I don't think that that's a risk that that particular citizen would have to do.
By the way, these cops, they know they're being videotaped, not only by the person in the back seat, but they just told the guy, we have a dashboard.
That was amazing.
And this is what, so this is what they think is A-O-K, super-duper okay.
That's right.
Even more so, he says that's a lieutenant there.
This is the loot.
And the lieutenant did it.
That's a commanding officer.
So these people have no recourse.
This is what is so absolutely overwhelming.
Like, we were sitting here in this room, so we're not seeing the video.
We're hearing in the audio.
It was shocking.
It was horrifying.
Yes.
And it's just like there's no recourse, and so they're victimized.
And they're never ever going to have any kind of turn of event where they're going to feel like, okay, this was handled properly.
I predict that they, I predict they'll get a lawyer and I predict they'll get a settlement.
I really do believe they will.
No, they're suing.
They'll get a settlement.
They will get a settlement, but it's just amazing.
But the scars that the children will carry for the rest of their lives, whenever they see a cop, the humiliation that the man will have to stomach every time he sees a cop.
Yes.
I mean, first off, they didn't even, they weren't even able to go to the hospital.
Right, to see the mother who's dying.
Well, that's a lie anyway.
I mean, that's how the cop sees it.
You know, anything that you say is a lie.
Yeah, it's a lie.
You're lying, and he's, and these guys got warrants.
So that's the thing.
It's like, if you've got my information, then I don't have to get out of the car.
You run my wound.
You think I have a warrant?
Because that's what they do half the time.
They're fishing for warrants.
Yes.
They assume that, you know, 20% of the black guys out there have warrants.
So let's just go fishing.
And if we catch a guy with the warrant, we score.
They didn't get to see the mob because she'd actually just been arrested before they got there.
So, oh, Kamamu was dying?
Yeah.
She got pulled over and she got cuffed to her hospital.
Hey, by the way.
Really?
Okay.
By the way, I heard that kid who was shot in that gas station was cuffed to the gurney.
For over, what, 11 hours or something?
And it wasn't until the cop went home that night he realized he didn't have his handcuffs on him.
He went back to the hospital and they uncuffed him.
And then he was able to leave the hospital.
And he was able to leave the hospital.
No.
Yeah.
So this is not like what happened to these cops.
Did they get any kind of so that cop, so the cop that was shot that kid who for the seatbelt violation, he's being they're pressing charges against him.
So he they didn't charge him with attempted murder.
They charged him.
No, he wasn't charged with murder.
He was charged with aggravated assault and battery and faces 20 years.
Okay, well, we'll see what he gets.
I'm guessing three with good behavior.
He's out in 18 months.
The fact that he was, you know.
By the way, so these hammers.
He's fired is huge.
So yes, that never happens.
No, it never happens.
Even Michael Brown's Michael Brown's not fired.
No.
I mean, not think Mike, but Daryl, the guy who killed him.
No, Michael Brown.
He's a hero.
He's a hero.
The other cops are wearing wristbands.
I support him.
So these guys from Hammond, these two cops, the one cop, his name is Vickery.
He has been named in at least three previous lawsuits involving the use of excessive force against citizens, as well as arrest without probable cause.
So that's three different things.
Still on the job, still cracking people's heads.
He's doing it in the name of law and order, and he's doing it in the name of your state.
Go ahead.
I just would have assumed this was an isolated incident.
What do you think?
Do you think it would be?
just a bad apple moment.
No.
Yes.
So here's a kid.
So I'm going to show this video.
You guys won't be able to see it, but the people on YouTube will see it.
There was a young man.
The cops thought he was selling marijuana in Brooklyn.
So I'm watching Joy Reed.
I'm watching Joy Reed on MSNBC, and she's going to describe it for us what you see in this videotape.
It shows the two officers as they catch up with a 16-year-old suspect who's suspected of selling marijuana in Brooklyn back in August.
Now you can see that after the suspect slows down and stops, an officer throws a punch at him.
Then, after the team briefly raises his hands in the air, the other officer hits him in the head with his gun.
Representative for the NYPD said.
Yes.
Yes.
So the kid, this is what I see.
Again, this is a security camera from a building that caught this, right?
Or else we'd never know about it.
So there's a 16-year-old kid.
And this is what I see.
He's standing there like this.
Cop walks up to him, punches him right in the face.
The kid goes falling down.
Cop comes over him, hits him again.
The other cop comes over.
The other cop hits him.
Kid, 16-year-old kid on the ground didn't do anything.
They thought he was selling marijuana.
So they thought they'd beat the shit out of a 16-year-old kid.
And again, this another isolated incident.
I'm sure it's an isolated incident.
And they probably never even drink or get drunk themselves.
I'm sure those cops never drink or get drunk, even though they are the biggest, fattest slobs I've ever seen.
When you see the video, you'll go, wow, those are pretty floppy cops.
Some of this is Obama's fault.
A lot of it is.
Only in the sense that there's such a tremendous Negro president remorse that white cats in authority just can't stomach.
I did not think that's where you were going with this.
That's one of my gifts.
That's one of my talents.
That was a zag.
So I'm watching these guys.
There's a New York cop, a New York cop came in the Joy.
What's her name?
Joy Reed.
Joy Reed Show.
And he makes a really good point about how blacks feel in general about cops.
I think the black community particularly, you hear people who have never broken a law in their lives saying that to you all the time.
And that's a profound issue.
And we have to stop pretending police work is done equally in our country.
Police work.
Talk about policing.
We're talking about race relations in the country.
That's what we're doing.
Same question.
Well, one way to address that is right now police are really.
So now here's a guy from the ACLU.
Much more like occupying forces in many poor communities of color.
They really need to be extensions of the community.
So they have to be sharing accountability and really actually sharing with the community in decisions about how does the community want to be policed and have a much more democratic process.
You need transparency, you need accountability, you need more officers who are from the community.
Right now, we really have an us versus them mentality, and that's just going to lead to more tragic situations like that.
Okay, so he's just saying what I've already said because I heard him say it once and then I said it.
Here's another, here's a great point they make about low-level crime enforcement.
We talked about enforcement of low-level offenses.
We have to look in this country at the way that police are over-enforcing minor infractions in communities of color selectively all around the country.
We put out a report last year on marijuana arrests that showed massive disparities in marijuana possession enforcement despite equal rates of use among blacks and whites.
This is going on in communities all across America.
And not only should that be examined, but then how does a seatbelt stop or a stop for selling untaxed cigarettes end up in somebody being tased, kids getting hurt, or somebody dying?
Yeah.
Okay, so that's a great point.
Somebody's selling illegal cigarettes, he ends up being killed by cops.
Somebody's getting pulled over for no seatbelt.
They end up breaking his window, tasing him, traumatizing his seven-year-old daughter.
Yeah.
But again, the guy that got choked out in New York, his problem is the same thing is that it was just that he was not complying.
He wouldn't comply.
The fact that you can lose your life for not complying.
For not complying is just insane.
Like, you guys really can't figure out a way to get a handcuff on this guy.
And by the way, and you don't tase that guy.
That's when you tase a guy.
Nope, we're not going to tase him when it would work.
We're going to choke him.
Yeah.
Well, you say, here's what you say.
In a civilized world, what you do is you say, you're not going to do it.
No, I'm not.
I'm not going to.
Okay, well, you're not going to leave this spot.
And we're going to go get Dave.
And Dave is, Dave is the guy that will talk to you all day.
Right.
And we'll do, you know, so one way or another, you're going downtown.
So you can stand here and refuse, but you're not going to leave.
And Dave is going to stand here and guard you like a fucking hall monitor until you get in the car.
But this is the rest of your life.
But we're not going to shoot you.
We're not going to beat you.
We're not going to, you know.
And eventually Dave was going to go, hey, come on, man.
Let's just go.
Let's just go.
And eventually you're going to go.
Ted, when I was a kid, I say this over and over on the show.
I always thought that cops were, they were trained to de-escalate things.
Now it seems like they're trained to escalate things.
If you don't respond, exactly what you said, if you don't follow their authority, they can then take it to the next level violent-wise, which it should be the other way.
We should have the opposite of SWAT first non-SWAT situations.
The opposite of Scottish.
So Dave comes in, and he's the opposite of SWAT.
He'll bring a box of donuts and he's going to sit here and fucking talk to you until you fucking decide that this is, it's fucking four in the morning, dude.
Let's just go.
We should replace the SWAT team with the chill team.
Yes.
Yes.
So St. Louis, they were doing these protests, right, for Michael Brown.
They stopped at the opera.
They went down to the symphony and they started singing a song, Whose Side Are You On?
Whose Side Are You On?
And it was pretty awesome to see.
I won't show you the video because I'm getting to this other video that is even more awesome.
So these protesters also went outside the St. Louis Cardinals playoff game, and they started to, let's hear it, you know, justice for Michael Brown, Justice for Michael Brown.
Well, a bunch of Cardinals fans started to chant back, and here's what they were chanting back.
So the protesters, to raise awareness about this, are protesting justice for Michael Brown.
Cardinals fans start chanting back, let's go Cardinals.
Okay, that's kind of okay.
That's kind of okay.
I understand that you're not into their protest.
You want them to go away.
I get that.
You're a Cardinals fan.
You're here for the Cardinals game.
You want them to go away.
Hey, you have no time for a social issue.
You've got to get to the game.
You're not sensitive to the plight of the African Americans in your community.
So I get it.
That's kind of okay.
But then it switches, and then they start chanting this.
Justice for Minecraft!
Let's go Jarris!
So they start chanting, let's go, Darren.
Let's go Darren, which is the cop that killed Michael Brown, shot him six times when he was unarmed and had his hands up.
Dick York or Dick Star kid.
So here, I'll play a little bit more.
Let's go, Darren!
Yes, it's the background!
Let's go, Darren!
Yes, it's the background!
Let's go, Darren!
Yeah.
And, you know, first of all, it's a video that gives startling revelation that St. Louis, Missouri is racist.
You could have seen the same thing at any Midtown Bar at about midnight on a Tuesday in St. Louis, if you ask me.
But it's nice because you watch this.
It's nice to watch the video of the new Ferguson police recruits getting ready to go to work because that's who these people are.
And they fulfilled all the needed requirements to be on the St. Louis police report.
Of course, they're ignorant.
They're racist.
They have a lot of hatred in them.
You know, I expected better from a state that has a bronze bust of Rush Limbaugh in the state capitol.
What?
They do.
Holy smokes.
Let me just say this about St. Louis, Ferguson.
If the cops want to arrest violent thugs, they need to look no further than the other squad car.
The End Okay, now it's the perfect time to check in and take the pulse of St. Louis with our favorite phone caller, Mike from St. Louis.
So, no, I started out by asking Mike in St. Louis if he watched the video of those St. Louis guys chanting for no, come on.
You didn't watch that?
What's that?
I knew a few of those guys, though.
That was Fred.
To me, a white guy who grew up in the southwest side of Chicago, which is very, which was a racist neighborhood.
It makes me feel horrible to see that.
There's a group of white people cheering on the execution of a black guy, an unarmed black teenager.
To what could that possibly, what's wrong with you that you do that?
That's just racism, right?
Sorry, I stopped paying attention about halfway through that.
laughter laughter Go cards.
They're just trying to interrupt things that they got no business.
You know, why are they there at the game?
They yell at people, and then these other people yelled back.
And then he went down to Powell Hall and ruined down there.
Yeah, but why?
There's no cops going to the fucking symphony.
What are you going to be?
No, what they're doing, Mike, is they're trying to raise awareness.
That's all.
They're just raising awareness, which by bothering people.
That's how you raise awareness?
You annoy.
Is that how things get done?
Well, I think that is how things get done.
You know, it's called civil, it's called civil disobedience.
It's a good thing that people are involved, right?
That raise awareness, don't you think?
And that sounds like some Gandhi stuff, though.
It sounds like Condi stuff?
What does that mean?
Gandhi.
Oh, Gandhi.
Oh.
Remember that movie?
Yes, I do.
I remember that movie.
So you weren't embarrassed to see white people chanting at people, at black, a group of black people who were...
They were, you know, they were self-defending themselves with yells.
Last time I checked, that's in the Constitution.
Last time I checked, this isn't Russia or a different foreign country that sucks.
Why wouldn't you be on their side, the people who are chanting for justice for Michael Brown?
Well, they, you know, they don't know what happened.
I mean, none of them were there.
They just like, some people just need to be angry all the time.
That's something I've learned.
Okay.
People just need to be pissed off.
It makes them feel good or something.
I don't know.
Well, the whole country was kind of embarrassed.
When they would watch the video, they'd show the video and I saw it being shown on December.
Let me explain something to you.
We're in the fucking playoffs.
All right.
We're very excited as a city.
St. Louis equals the Cardinals.
Cardinals equals St. Louis.
Bush Stadium.
That's our temple.
And these people were coming and pissing on everyone's experience there.
Yeah.
Yeah, they were angry.
They yelled back at stuff.
I didn't hear N. Did you?
I didn't.
What?
Didn't hear what?
I didn't hear N. Did you?
I didn't.
I don't think I did hear it.
Well, there you go.
Then it wasn't racist, dummy.
They were just telling them to mind their own business.
There's nothing wrong with that.
Those blacks were going over there to ruin a Cardinal game.
They're probably just pissed that we don't have an NBA team.
How would they like it if we had an NBA team and a bunch of us went over there to the game and were yelling about white stuff?
We wouldn't want that.
Like, hey, mayonnaise or whatever.
I don't think they like it.
If you look at it through that prism there, you start to understand that, yeah, some people got hot over that.
Got a little heated.
So why do you think the rest of the country winced when they saw that video?
But they don't know what's going on.
They don't know what they just saw this little clip.
That's what people like to do.
They like to videotape these little things that happen.
It's got nobody's business.
It's not their business.
It's not their problem.
And then it gets blown up by the media.
And everyone sees it and they think, oh, look at that.
I'm going to get angry.
Oh, I feel good now.
I'm angry about some shit that has nothing to do with it.
That makes me feel so good.
I'm like a pig and shit.
That's how these people are.
We're in the fucking playoffs.
Go cards.
So I appreciate the update.
How do you think that the well, what, but do you, so do you think that the white people should handle it that way next time just because of the way it looks to the rest of the world?
Because, you know, we don't, I know we don't know the answer.
Well, is that how we have to live our lives now, thinking that we're going to be taped by some asshole every minute of every day?
Well, and then Anderson Cooper starts crying about it a few hours later and the whole world sees it.
Is that the new world?
I guess.
Because I don't want to live in a world like that.
Well, I mean, that is the world.
So what do you, that's the world you live in, Mike?
That's you're not me.
Not here.
Put your goddamn cameras away.
Say what I want.
Okay, Mike.
What else do you need to know?
So you don't care that the rest of the country are going to get the wrong idea.
That's our problem, basically.
To be honest with you, I don't think they got the wrong idea.
The rest of the country, you think they're on your side?
No, I think that videotape was a pretty good depiction of St. Louis.
Okay.
Okay.
So, boy.
When people were getting the right idea, they winced from the right idea.
Well, like I said, we're in the playoffs, Jimmy.
Interfering with the enjoyment that the citizens of St. Louis metropolitan area have in this moment is playing with fire.
I'll just put it that way.
You're playing with fire.
I understand.
We're in the fucking playoffs.
And they got to pull that shit.
Can't we?
They have whatever they want.
They got the whole world looking at them.
We don't get shit.
We got the rest of the country calling us a bunch of names.
They're calling us names.
And they ended up just for the video of us calling them names.
See the ironics there?
Yes.
But not end, like I said.
Which is nice.
They didn't say end.
Which is nice.
Okay, Mike, listen.
We'll check back in with you next week.
This is a good gig for you now, right?
Yeah, no, it's great.
Okay.
All right.
We'll talk to you.
I appreciate your candor.
I don't know what you're trying to say, but I'm a straight shooter.
Okay, that was Mike from St. Louis.
Mike.
I hate that guy.
Now, that is what you call Mike from St. Louis.
Now, I don't know if you noticed, but if you look at your device there, whatever you're using to listen to the show, you'll notice that we're already at past 60 minutes.
We're at 62 minutes.
That means I gave extra time on the show this week so you could hear the entire Mike from St. Louis.
I would cut it off at 57 minutes and say, hey, if you want to hear the rest of the five minutes, what you got to do is you got to become a premium member.
But I didn't do that this week.
I gave you the whole Mike from St. Louis call because guess what?
There's another Mike from St. Louis call in the premium.
That's right.
And that's a great way to help support the show.
And it only costs you a dollar and change a week.
And you get extra content and you're supporting the progressive Jimmy Doer show and you become a great person and you get out of purgatory early if you're Catholic.
That's true for supporting the Jimmy Doer show.
The Pope already told us that if you do that, you get out of purgatory early.
That's a true thing.
So how do I become a premium member, Jimmy, and get access to all the fantastic premium?
By the way, a triple bonus premium content last week.
It was over 45 minutes long.
So that's quite a big deal.
So that's, and that's for the price of a cup of coffee.
That's whatever.
So there you go.
How do I do it, Jimmy?
You go over to JimmyDoorComedy.com.
You click on premium, you make your donation, which is a $5 donation a month.
That's nothing.
And then we'll send you the passcode.
That's just that easy.
And if you haven't got, if you made your donation, you haven't gotten a passcode, send me an email at my old timey email, jimmydoor at earthlink.net, and we'll set you right up.
Okay.
So thanks, everybody who already is a premium member.
You're going to get, look at the extra content we give away for free here.
The extra Mike from St. Louis today, which we were supposed to cut at 57 minutes, and we didn't.
We kept going because that's the kind of goddamn show this is.
Okay, guess what?
Thanks to everybody who's also left a review over at Amazon.
I don't know if it helps for me to mention it on the show, but it helps when you guys review it.
It really does.
And not only does it make me feel good, but it certainly helps.
The whole thing, it's all about getting another book.
You have to sell enough books.
You have to get enough reviews.
It's so crazy.
But anyway, thanks to everybody who's done that.
It really helps.
Of course, Mike from St. Louis, voiced by the one and only, the inimitable, Mike McRae, who can be found at mikemcray.com.
Today's show was written.
That's right.
It was written by Mark Van Landuitt, Frank Conniff, Robert Yasamura, Steph Zamorano.
That's it for this week.
Until next week, this is Jimmy Doer saying you be the best you can be, and I'll keep being me.
We're in the fucking playoffs.
